comedy chicks hard
But it's hard for a chick to do comedy. It's not as open for them.
hate ideas guy
The comics I hate are thieves. Nothing's more disgusting than a guy who steals another person's ideas and tries to claim them as his own.
mma mind stronger
The mind is the most important thing of the big picture and no one has a stronger mindset than amateur wrestlers.
art fighting boxing
Although not considered a martial art, boxing is really a martial art. It's a very limited martial art as long as you agree to just box... but in an actual physical fight against someone who's just a wrestler, you're going to get killed.
thinking play people
If someone plays a brooding actor in a film, people think they're brooding all the time.
marriage coke psycho
Never stay in a bad marriage, and don't hang around with psycho coke fiends.
children feels travesty
I really feel like it's a travesty to make a child famous. I really do.
long knees scar
On my left knee I have a long scar from an ACL operation. I've had both knees reconstructed.
lying smell people
People for the most part can smell lies, at least I thought that until I saw audiences applaud at Carlos Mencia.
cds done records
So many times I've done a CD, and then the week after I record it, I've got this new tagline that's killer. And it makes the whole bit better. It happens all the time. But that's just the process of comedy.
comic
Any comic like myself owes everything he has to Lenny Bruce. He was the originator. The godfather of uncensored American stand-up is clearly Lenny Bruce.
fun believe people
Stand-up is still my favorite, but the podcast is a close second. It's so fun, and it's given me the oppor-tunity to have three-hour conversations with people I wouldn't have otherwise been able to talk to. When I talked to Maynard Keenan from Tool, I almost couldn't believe it was happening.
relationship girlfriend lying
If you can lie, you can act, and if you can lie to crazy girlfriends, you can act under pressure.
thinking talking people
My company is called Talking Monkey, Inc. It's because that's what I think all people are: talking monkeys.
