15:04know got to go first in the knife
15:07fight it's big year though we're fitting
15:10in we're fitting in it was a big year
15:13Big Year moved to New York we also got
15:14married got married this year
15:17yeah Big Year big Year got married this
15:21is my wife Emma's first marriage and
15:24this is my second marriage so a lot of
15:26pressure on me you know like if this
15:29doesn't work out I'll know for a fact it
15:31was me all
15:32along right anyone can have one divorce
15:35but two you got to start looking in that
15:37mirror going all right how am I chewing
15:43because I am running these women
15:49off but I think we're doing good you
15:52know I think we're doing good we've been
15:54married since May I think we got to
15:56figure it out
16:00I think one of the important things we
16:01do is that if we get into a stupid
16:03argument and we realize we're in a
16:04stupid argument we'll call it out and
16:06then laugh at each other and I think
16:08that's important because if you're in a
16:09relationship you're going to get into a
16:11stupid argument so once you realize it
16:13just laugh at your significant other I
16:16mean make sure they also know it's a
16:18stupid argument otherwise that could
16:21lead to a stabbing
16:24but just realize it like one of my wife
16:27and I's favorite activities acties is we
16:29like to go to open houses for houses we
16:32can't afford yeah it's a great activity
16:35isn't that the best yeah you walk into a
16:37house you're like we can't afford that
16:38let's see what's going
16:40on we actually we went into a house I
16:43remember it was listed for $ 1.7
16:45million and I don't have that and we
16:48went in and we actually got into an
16:50argument over which room we turned into
16:52the
16:53office in a house we can't afford and I
16:57mean a full-on argu like what are you an
17:00idiot you can't put the office here it's
17:02going to ruin the flow of the layout and
17:05it was heated but my wife caught it
17:07first she was like wait a second I
17:09forgot you drive a Honda
17:12Fit And I was like oh yeah and I still
17:16owe three grand on it I
17:18don't I don't think we're in the market
17:20for the $1.7 million
17:24house so just laugh at each other
17:27man we do things together enough things
17:30apart we keep it nice and balanced like
17:32right now we're on a couple's diet doing
17:34a diet together we're on the portion
17:35control diet that's the one we on if you
17:37don't know what the portion control diet
17:39is that's where you eat whatever you
17:40want you just eat a lot less of it you
17:42just eat this much instead of this much
17:44just this much if you've never been on
17:46the portion control diet the most
17:47important part is once you're done with
17:49your really small meal uh for the next
17:51half hour afterwards out loud you say
17:53how that was the perfect amount of food
17:55that's it's key to the day it doesn't
17:57work if you don't do that you just walk
17:59around going that was the perfect amount
18:01of food that was the excellent amount
18:04I'm not weighed down by too much
18:05sustenance or Joy this is the exact
18:09level I should be at that's what you say
18:11on the outside on the inside you're like
18:13that was just enough to piss me off is
18:15what that
18:16was that was just enough to get all my
18:18salivary glands going and then it
18:20ended but that's why it's important to
18:22do a couple's day with two of you cuz
18:24eventually one of you is going to crack
18:26one of you usually around day three day
18:29four one of you is going to just be like
18:31I'm going to jam a Hershey bar up my ass
18:33I think and that's when the other person
18:36comes in and goes no no baby don't no
18:38just split it with me just split it with
18:40me this diet was a horrible idea let's
18:43eat a traditional you know so we got to
18:47figure it
18:48out yeah we uh we got married in uh in
18:51Italy that's where we got married we
18:53eloped to Italy that's what we did yeah
18:56yeah if you guys don't know what an
18:57alopen is that's when you realiz uh your
18:59wedding would be so much more fun if no
19:01one
19:02came that's what an alopen is that's
19:05when you sit down and you crunch the
19:06numbers and you're like oh my God if we
19:07don't have to feed 150 people we could
19:10go to
19:11Italy and then you weigh the love of
19:14your friends and family against a trip
19:16to Italy and we're like uh or ofo I
19:20think which that's not even Italian but
19:23it doesn't matter cuz they're not coming
19:27anyway went out to Italy got married out
19:30there I loved it Italy is a great
19:32country food amazing of course people
19:34vibrant everybody everybody the best
19:36smelling people I've ever seen everyone
19:38slathered in Cologne every dude you know
19:41what else I noticed no depression in
19:43Italy and I think it's related I think
19:46it's related I never saw a single dude
19:48in Italy like I just don't have it today
19:50I don't have it every dude was like hell
19:55yeah it's Nico's time to shine
19:58everyone was pumped and I think it's the
20:00cologne I think cologne is aroma theapy
20:02for
20:04confidence you just if you ever second
20:06guess yourself you remember wait a
20:07second I smell
20:09delicious the world is my oyster you
20:13know loved Italy people are vibrant in
20:16the streets mixing it up I watched an
20:17old Italian couple argu in downtown
20:20Florence right in the middle of
20:21everybody in each other's fa is
20:23just giving it to each other that's my
20:26Italian by the way all right you didn't
20:28come from my Impressions that's about as
20:30close as you get an on Italian but just
20:33and he's like and she's like and then I
20:37remember he grabbed and shook her a
20:38little bit and her sunglasses fell off
20:40and she broke away she
20:42goes and ran down a little Street don't
20:45get me wrong that that was domestic
20:48violence but it was in Italian so it was
20:52beautiful you know what I mean it was
20:55like we were watching the Opera or
20:57something I was like no no no honey
20:58don't don't call the cops there's a
20:59second act all
21:01right it's going to be a moral to this
21:04story we're going to figure it
21:06out it's been good yeah we've been
21:08married since May we got to figure it
21:10out I've heard this quote from a lot of
21:12married people oh my significant other
21:14makes me a better person I don't know if
21:17either of us are doing that for the
21:19other I think my wife and I make each
21:22other one normal person if that makes
21:25sense like between us there's a normal
21:27human being right here here separately I
21:29don't think we should be allowed to vote
21:31quite
21:33honestly but together give us one vote
21:36who could we hurt you what I mean by
21:39that is like we balance each other out
21:41there's some things she's bad at that
21:42I'm good at there's some things I'm
21:44horrible at that she's all right at and
21:45there's like a normal human being right
21:48here like my wife for example is a
21:50hypochondriac every morning she wakes up
21:53with a brand new disease brand new it's
21:55very exciting in our household we'll
21:56just wake up and she'll be like oh my
21:58God do you hear that what is that and
22:01I'm like huh and she'll hold it to my
22:02ear do you hear that what is that and
22:05I'm like I don't know she's like was
22:06that there yesterday I'm like I don't
22:08know we didn't do this
22:10yesterday I don't have yesterday's wrist
22:12noises cataloged in my head to compare
22:14to today's wrist noises and she gets
22:17annoyed with me she's like oh you never
22:18listen and she storms off and then after
22:22like two hours of Google and she comes
22:23back she's like it's wrist cancer and I
22:26was like that's the most common form so
22:29I get that it's been really going around
22:32this
22:33year so that's who my wife is my wife's
22:35a bit of a hypochondriac and me I've had
22:38a pain in my left testicle for six years
22:41and I've just been writing that out you
22:44see what I mean there's like a normal
22:46human being right here between this
22:48there's a normal person right here she's
22:50over here going oh my God and I'm over
22:52here like yeah everything's fine that's
22:56fine just a little bit of humidity today
22:58that's all that is a little too much
23:04humidity don't worry I will explain the
23:06testicle um I wasn't just going to put
23:10that out there for you guys here's why I
23:12never got it checked out I have a 7-Day
23:14rule if something hurts on my body I
23:16give it a week if it still hurts after a
23:18week then I go get it checked out the
23:19problem with this testicle pain is it
23:21would last like a day or two then stop
23:24and then come back a week later but I'd
23:26start my clock over again and and I just
23:28realized this year I've been doing that

29:19got an idea for a TV show and I'm like
29:21what yeah this later right now
29:24this and his idea wasn't bad it wasn't a
29:27bad idea like wouldn't it be cool if

29:30inner monologues of doctors and patients
29:33and then hear what they're actually
29:34saying to each other I'm like Ah that's
29:36funny I'd watch that and he's like right
29:38and I'm like hell yeah he's like right
29:39I'm like yeah and I could tell he wanted
29:41something more out of me so I had to
29:43break it to him I'm like I'm sorry Dr
29:45zultan I'm not famous enough to help you
29:48with this idea and I could tell it
29:50bummed him out a little bit he was like
29:52a yeah all right
29:56um that's fine uh
29:58go ahead and take your pants off and
30:01that was so weird I've never taken my
30:03pants off after disappointing
30:07somebody like that's never been the
30:09order of
30:11events I've never had someone go and I'm
30:15like
30:20[Applause]
30:23well and so we're already off to this
30:25weird start so I got my pants down by my
30:26ankles I'm in a good power stance feet
30:29shoulder withth apart knees slightly
30:31bent ready ready for anything and Emma's
30:35behind me she's kind of got a rough View
30:37and uh doctor's in front of me worse
30:40View and uh he's down there giving me
30:43the exam he's just kind of feeling
30:46around he's not milking me but this is
30:48what he was
30:52doing and he's saying all these doctor
30:54words that don't mean anything to me
30:56he's just down there muttering he's like
30:58oh yeah oh yeah mhm oh yeah you got a
31:02swollen vernacular over there oh yeah
31:05that's a swollen
31:07vernacular over there yep we got two
31:09swollen
31:10vernaculars yeah and and but for the
31:13record he's not saying vernacular it's
31:15just the closest I have in my
31:17vocabulary to whatever he is saying is
31:21vernacular and the problem is he's just
31:24not saying the thing I want him to say
31:26like my fear is that it might be cancer
31:28but he's not saying that he won't answer
31:29that he's just down there like oh yeah
31:31got a couple
31:32vernaculars over here got some
31:35vernaculars over here oh yeah couple
31:40vernaculars and I remember I had to cut
31:42them off I'm like Dr Zan he's like huh
31:44and I'm like is it cancer he's like oh
31:47no and I'm like good get off me like I
31:51don't care what it is now I was just
31:53scared that it was that get the hell off
31:55of me Dr zultan there's money for you on
31:57the nightstand get off of
32:00me I didn't actually say that part but I
32:04would have been sick man and he was like
32:07listen I'm 95% sure it's not cancer but
32:10we got to make a 100% sure so I got to
32:11set you up with a blood test and an
32:13ultrasound and that's when I found out
32:15that they even do an ultrasound on that
32:17I had no clue I thought that was for
32:19looking at babies but apparently they do
32:20it on other things and I showed up that
32:23morning and the ultrasound tech
32:25unfortunately kind of resembled my
32:27mother
32:30which if there was anything I could have
32:31asked for that day is please don't look
32:33like my mother and there she was
32:34cheekbones and
32:36all and I she was very nice very
32:39professional but it's awkward I'm there
32:40on this table it's in the morning it's
32:42cold there's bright lights I got my
32:44pants down by my ankles I'm just laying
32:45on this bed she squirts this ultrasound
32:48jelly on my situation and then she's
32:50just rubbing a wand on it and I'm just
32:53laying there going where the hell do I
32:55put my arms you know
32:58I had never thought so hard of where do
33:00arms go right now cuz you can't be too
33:03relaxed right you can't just be
33:07like like that's uncomfortable for
33:09everybody you can't just be too and you
33:11also can't go behind the head you can't
33:13just W definitely can't do that so I
33:18went with like a dead cockroach bro I
33:21just
33:28and she's just down
33:30there and I know for a fact ultrasound
33:33texts can tell what's good and bad on

39:23remember my favorite part of the entire
39:25trip to Thailand is uh the bath room we
39:27had in the hotel cuz we stayed at a
39:29high-end hotel and this hotel had a
39:31Japanese toilet in there I don't know if
39:33you guys know about Japanese toilets
39:35you're already clapping you have a look
39:37of satisfaction already on your face for
39:40the rest of you that don't know these
39:41toilets they do all the work for you you
39:43don't even look back there all right you
39:45just worry about friend of House
39:46business they take care of back a house
39:49for you and I didn't know that I was in
39:51a rush I just sat down and while I'm
39:53sitting there I noticed there's all
39:54these buttons on the wall and each
39:56button has a drawing of what's going to
39:58happen back there if you happen to hit
40:01one of these buttons and listen I'm a
40:02human being with natural uh you know
40:05Curiosities and I was like oh hell yeah
40:07but I'm also a little tepid I'm a little
40:09scared sometimes and I'm like oh I don't
40:11know you know it's like what if I love
40:13it you know like what if there's no
40:15going back you know what I mean what if

40:20this hotel room just like another round
40:22Johnny like you know what I mean what if
40:25this changes my Outlook on
40:29and then I noticed they had a second set
40:31of buttons underneath it was numbers 1
40:33to 10 it was how hard you wanted the
40:34water pressure back there so I started
40:37at a one right at a one it's my first
40:39day at the gym I'm not maxing out I'm
40:42just hopping on the elliptical for 10
40:43minutes getting a little sweat on the
40:45brow that's all I'm looking to do so I
40:47started at a one and I'm like well
40:49hello and about 90 seconds later I had
40:52that thing pegged out and I'm like
40:57Game Changer
40:59dude I've never had a toilet change my
41:01mood
41:03before like I sat down in a bad mood I
41:06got up in an amazing mood like colors
41:09were brighter I was more optimistic I
41:11felt
41:13taller God I love that
41:16toilet sometimes I would sit on it when
41:18I didn't even need to go I just treated
41:21it like a afternoon coffee you know like
41:23a like a Starbucks at 3:00 p.m. just to
41:26get through the rest of your day I'd sit
41:29down and I'd bounce off let's go look at
41:31some more temples baby daddy's got a
41:33second
41:39wind God amazing toilet amazing toilet
41:44the aim on that thing just spot
41:47on there's no I just sat down this thing
41:50didn't even know my name it was like
41:51there you are right

41:59at math what was that equation A2 + b s
42:03equals Bullseye we got him fellas send
42:06that to the Smithsonian we're
42:09set I loved it then you hit this other
42:12button and they dry you off you were no
42:13part of this process you hit this other
42:16button and a hot breath would come out
42:19and
42:22just I didn't know I needed that in my
42:24life until I had it
42:29and I'm like well how do you go back now

42:37had hot breath on your barn doors you
42:39can't that's who you are now you're hot
42:42breath
42:43guy amazing it's crazy what people can
42:46come up with like a human being invented
42:48that a person just like me or you had
42:50that idea and not only did they have
42:52that idea they had the courage to tell
42:54someone else about
42:55it right cuz anyone can have an idea but
42:58it takes a little something extra to
43:00look a stranger in the eyes and go hey
43:01you got a
43:04minute like to show you some
43:08schematics like this dude he had to
43:10invent it and then he had to go get
43:12Capital he had to he invented it then
43:14he's got to start a business he probably
43:15had to walk into like a shark tank type
43:17situation probably with a crude
43:19prototype he made it home just like a
43:20toilet seat with like a water gun and a
43:22hairdyer glue do it they had to walk in
43:25there all confident hi my name is name
43:27is
43:28Phil I'm looking for $100,000 for 10%
43:31stake and uh Mark cubin can you just
43:34take your pants off for a
43:37second this is easier to demonstrate
43:39than it is to articulate
43:44I I've been up here long enough that you
43:46get it I I I grew up without without a
43:48dad right like that the stories that
43:51piece together where you're like oh yeah
43:53he was raised by a single mom for sure
43:56for sure
43:57sure I was hugged and kissed a lot too
44:00and most little boys were like no more
44:01kisses and I was like oh actually you
44:03missed a
44:05cheek that's who I was I love the love
44:08man so I grew up with that a dad my wife
44:11grew up with both parents I don't know
44:12if you've heard of that
44:15um every once in a while two people
44:17start a family and they're just like
44:19let's keep going what would happen if we
44:22just kept it going you know so she's
44:24fascinated by the fact that I never met
44:26my dad and she's like so you never met
44:28him I'm like no I never met him he left
44:29when I was a baby she's like do you ever
44:31think about him I'm like no not really
44:33never met him so I don't really think
44:34about him she goes would you ever want
44:36to meet him and I'm like good God no and
44:39she goes why not I'm like cuz it'd be
44:41weird we don't have anything to talk
44:42about we don't have a relationship to
44:44reference so it would be awkward and it
44:47would be like a first date and on top of
44:49that he lives in Budapest Hungary and
44:50only speaks Hungarian and I only speak
44:52English so if we hung out it would be
44:54like a 90day fiance date
44:57where I'm speaking into my phone like
44:59why' you
45:06leave I'd rather not do that at an
45:08Applebees you
45:10know she's like I get it now and I'm
45:13like
45:15God so I grew up with that a dad which
45:17if there's anyone in here that grew up
45:19with that a dad you might be able to
45:20connect to this next chunk it's just you
45:22naturally find father figures when you
45:24grow up that's just what happens they
45:26just pop up in life like I remember we
45:28moved from Hungary and when we first
45:30moved to the United States my first
45:31father figure was on TV it was Mr Rogers
45:35yeah yeah the uh that guy that guy was
45:37great I love me some Mr Rogers he taught
45:38me how to speak English because he spoke
45:40slowly he had puppets kept my attention
45:42he had a stoplight in his living room
45:44for some reason I was like this guy's
45:45pretty rock and roll I like me some Mr
45:47Rogers where do you get a stoplight did
45:49you steal that from the city where does
45:51that even come from and so I loved Mr
45:53Rogers I remember he had like indoor
45:55outdoor shoes remember that he took off
45:57his outdoor shoes put on his indoor
45:58shoes took off his outdoor cardigan put
46:00on his indoor cardan I grew up kind of
46:02poor so I was like man Mr Rogers is
46:04loaded like he's he's doing all right
46:07you know I want to be like Mr Rogers
46:09when I grow up so that was my first uh
46:12Father Figure was Mr Rogers my second
46:14Father Figure also on TV a few years
46:16later was a professional wrestler by the
46:18name of the Heartbreak Kid Shawn
46:20Michaels yeah cool a couple people know
46:23who he is everybody else I'll
46:25explain Shawn Michaels played like a
46:28male stripper type of character he had
46:30like long hair and bushy chest hair and
46:32he sang his own theme song and the
46:34lyrics were I'm just a sexy boy and he
46:37would sing that over and over again
46:39while taking off bedazzled assless chaps
46:42and I was 10 years old like hell yeah
46:45dude this guy rocks so those were my
46:48first two father figures there Mr Rogers
46:50and the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels
46:52and sometimes when you're a little boy
46:53you're in situations you're like what
46:55would a man do in this situ situation
46:57and I would think of those two and I
46:59just kind of blend them you know I was
47:02honestly both of those men like I work
47:04carigans but I took them off sexy you
47:06know what I mean let him slide down the
47:12shoulders my third Father Figure wasn't
47:15a famous person at all he was just a
47:17regular guy uh he was my best friend
47:19Jason's dad Daryl Jones uh yeah darl
47:22Jones good dude darl Jones ran a
47:25mechanic shop in town and that I worked
47:28at this mechanic shop this is the last
47:29real day job I had before I got to do
47:31comedy full-time and I didn't work on
47:33the cars I wasn't allowed in there I I
47:35worked in the office I did the computers
47:38I did the bookkeeping I wrote invoices
47:40for customers like he taught me he's
47:42like hey if anyone ever pays in cash you
47:44delete that invoice and we don't tell
47:48the government about it and I'm like
47:50hell yeah Mr Jones you know that's how I
47:53run my business to this day so
47:57I've kept that
48:00alive and darl Jones man he as a
48:02character dude I don't know how to
48:03describe him he's big heavy set dude
48:05maybe 300 lb big bushy white beard he
48:07smoked marro ultralight 100s his ass
48:11crack hung out when he worked which
48:13isn't that weird everyone's ass crack
48:14sticks out when you work right like the
48:16top quarter maybe the top third if it's
48:17an extra tough day but his whole ass
48:20would hang out like all he'd be bent
48:23over working on a car and I'd be like I
48:24think I see the back of his knees I
48:27think I think that's everything you can
48:29see and then
48:32some and he was also kind of oblivious
48:34to how much it stuck out cuz I remember
48:36one time at lunch he told a story he's
48:37like oh yeah back in Community College I
48:39was getting my diesel mechanic license
48:41and I was bent over working he's like I
48:43don't know if you guys noticed but my
48:44ass crack sticks out a little bit when I
48:46work and we were all like
48:48what yours yeah a touch
48:51maybe and he's like yeah yeah some Joker
48:54came by and poured soda pop down my ass
48:56cracked
48:57and we were like oh no what' you do he's
48:59like well I turned around to get him but
49:00he ran off so I just grabbed a torque
49:02wrench and I threw it at him and I hit
49:04him between the shoulder blades knocked
49:05him unconscious and we were like oh my
49:08God and he was just over there
49:11like thought that was the funniest thing
49:13that had ever been
49:15told and we're like is that guy all
49:17right he's like I don't know it was like
49:19a classic redneck story you hear
49:21something that ends in what sounds like
49:23a murder and then they just Trail off at
49:25the end
49:27you're like what happened next I don't
49:28know I had to get to second period I had
49:30to just carrying a full
49:33schedule you know this dude was he was a
49:36he was an interesting character man he
49:38had all these Southern sayings even
49:39though he wasn't from the south he was
49:41born in Albuquerque New Mexico which he
49:43claimed was the South but he was so
49:46intimidating nobody ever corrected him
49:48like people would ask him like where are
49:49you from he's like the South and they're
49:51like where specifically he's like
49:53Albuquerque and everyone's like
49:54absolutely y yeah hell yeah that Mason
49:57Dixon line runs all the way across
49:59everybody knows that straight to Hawaii
50:01splits the
50:03islands just intimidating and he had all
50:06these Southern sayings they didn't make
50:07any sense but they were terrifying like
50:09if we ever had an issue with a customer
50:10he'd be like get him in the shop I'll
50:12show them how the cow eats the corn I
50:14was like what the hell does that
50:17mean how the hell do cows eat
50:20corn and I don't want him to show me you
50:24know he was a wild dude man he's the
50:26only guy I've ever met that was banned
50:28from Best
50:29Buy he was banned from our neighborhood
50:32Best Buy cuz he choked a kid that work
50:35there cuz he was trying to buy his wife
50:38a Christmas gift and somehow the
50:39conversation in the electronics
50:41department went sideways and he said the
50:44kid said something rude to him so he
50:46started throttling him as you
50:48do and while he was choking him he goes
50:51in a second I'm going to Turn You Loose
50:52what a great thing to say by the way if
50:55I ever have the opportunity to choke
50:58somebody I'm going to go in a second I'm
50:59going to turn you loose but he goes I
51:01want that damn memory card on this
51:03counter and he throws him back and the
51:05kid's
51:06like I'm calling security and he goes
51:09you better call all of them cuz I'm
51:11fixing to
51:15dance he was like a poet of violence
51:18like his words were beautiful but
51:20terrifying like if Charles Bukowski
51:23fought in the UFC or something you're
51:24like what mesmerizing and I know at this
51:27point you're like this guy was a father
51:28figure in your life he was he was like
51:31listen he was rough around the edges a
51:33lot of people either loved him or hated
51:35him and the people that hated him were
51:37probably assaulted by
51:39him and that's fair you know if someone
51:41beats you up you're probably going to
51:42not like that guy but I that's not the
51:46relationship I had with him like he
51:47treated me like an honorary Jones he
51:50treated me like a son he treated me like
51:52a he's like a dad to me he never said I
51:54love you just like a real dad
51:57but it was the way he treated me that I
51:59could tell how we felt like he knew this
52:01was my dream he knew I wanted to do
52:03comedy and he knew this job was just
52:05paying the bills so he always let me
52:06leave to go do my shows and he's like
52:08your job's here when you come back to it
52:09and I remember one time I had to leave
52:11work early to do a show downtown San
52:13Diego at the Hard Rock Hotel it's a
52:15private event I go down there and I bomb
52:17my ass off like I just have the worst
52:19set of my entire life I tried I tried
52:22really hard but it just wasn't in the
52:24cards for the zman that night and and uh
52:27maybe cuz I was calling myself the zman
52:29that night if I'm being honest it might
52:32have rubbed some people the wrong way
52:34but I bomb so bad that at the end of the
52:36show they didn't want to pay me the $400
52:38that they owed me yeah and I remember
52:40being demoralized that I bomb so bad but
52:42I still argued for the check I was like
52:44uh I think you still have to pay me if I
52:46suck and They begged to differ so I left
52:50without getting paid and I remember that
52:52Monday I went back to the shop and I
52:54walk in and Daryl's sitting there
52:55smoking his marro ultral Light 100s he's
52:58puffing away and he's like how's your
52:59little show on Friday and I'm like not
53:02good I ate my ass for an hour and he
53:05laughed a little he's like d that's
53:06probably going to happen a few more
53:08times I would
53:10assume and he's like I'm sure it wasn't
53:12as bad as you thought it was and I'm
53:14like oh no it's worse than you're
53:15thinking I bought him so bad they didn't
53:18pay me the $400 that they owed me and
53:20he's like really and I'm like uh-huh
53:22he's like they should still pay you if
53:23you suck and I'm like that's what I said
53:27and I'll never forget this he took a
53:28long puff of his cigarette he's like all
53:31right well give him another call but if
53:33they don't find your check by Friday
53:35maybe you and I closed the shop early
53:37and we Mosey on down to the Hard Rock
53:39Hotel and we start tipping things over
53:42in the lobby until they find your check
53:44and I could tell by the look in his eyes
53:46he was serious all right Not only was he
53:49serious he was kind of excited at the
53:51opportunity he had a twinkle in his eye
53:54like I would love to vandalize the lobby
53:56of a high-end hotel and I'm on the other
53:59side going oh my God I hope they find my
54:01check cuz I'm going to be an
54:04accomplice and I was just so blown away

54:08business for an entire day driv an hour
54:10Downtown to vandalize the lobby of a
54:12high-end Hotel so I could get my check

54:17dad I've been looking for my entire
54:20life that's what dads are

54:45a a heart transplant and they wouldn't
54:47give him one and uh probably for the
54:50safety of the community I would I often
54:53wonder how many ass kickings didn't
54:55happen cuz they didn't get him a new
54:56ticker you know and uh but I remember I
54:59went to go visit him and I came on like

55:12whatever and I showed up and then I
55:14found out that they just told him he's
