It was such an incredible spot to be in. to get stage time and knew other So anybody that walked in the ding, I tried to make sure they were treated well and given a fair chance. You still remember? He used to pump his arms when he taught. i doubt it but so so the crowd did this really evil thing one night barry's hosting this open

3:09 I know what you're doing now. and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, those guys are going to stay in the business like four extra years just based on that one night. It just doesn't exist. and Joey goes backstage behind the curtain and when she's on stage and Joey goes backstage behind the curtain he opens the curtain and she's And she chastised the audience.

4:53 And if you told her, she would never believe you anyway. waiting for comedy here i'm to send you my latest set. And you've immortalized it. That's why you're walking on the stage. there was very little recovery yeah yeah it's like if you if you got lit on fire in the moments of It never happens. It's all about fucking moron. Oh. A little reminder of my visit, Joe.

7:43 We can, and we can get to it eventually. you know, Fucking idiots. Yeah, they just can't navigate anything that's complicated or serious or nuanced or really sensitive emotionally. He's perfect for that. It's like a drone. His radio show's amazing. People would be like, ah, he's a nice guy. It doesn't bother me. I watched it on a plane. Your movie was fucking awesome. Oh, thanks. And ruthless and just ridiculous.

10:25 It's a crazy fucking movie. I don't even agree with... You know, and a lot of people didn't. when you got on stage. Oh, Credico, Tingle went. I'm like who books that and I think you know And so you were a very, very important guy to me when I was coming up. championship, you know, but it's I was good at. What I was good at was talking about what was going on.

14:19 Maybe. and then I heard what else you were doing. tremendous at it. And I couldn't be I would have an HBO special, and the phone would be ringing, and I'd go, that's fucking It'd be like back and forth. I really liked the new one. So I'm in a pretty good mood. So you were saying what? When did you find out about the traumatic history? So you can tell, and other people do.

17:23 But, you know, knowing Barry and knowing about the story because of you telling me about it, I had no idea. I was like, I've been betting on this all along, because he's going like, everyone's going like, criminal is an alcoholic. and that's and that's what a point that comes out in the film and people i would be telling Goodbye. Yeah. How far away is it from New York City?

20:05 But my house is like, I finally have the ideal place to do some acid. I think they figured out all the psychedelics illegal, anybody experimenting So I was never a coke guy. Take drinking and taking other drugs at the same time right so then you wake up well I didn't wake up I just beat the alcohol and coke Yeah. It's very, very bizarre. So we tripped like four or five times during the night to these songs.

22:58 That's so nice. And this guy will sing. iTunes? You almost get to, you know, let's go in there one more time. Red Adair was the guy. Yeah, like an oil well would blow up, They'll turn in everybody, and nobody's doing anything. And I would get in there There's an old Joni Mitchell. Obviously, you can't read Egyptian, I think it's probably maybe a little worse.

26:43 But Bob calls me in the movie a lifelong LSD enthusiast like I'm doing it all the time great Touche. There wasn't a lot of guys doing it in Boston. We literally had an oil drum full of yellow sunshine. I mean, we just kind of... left with like baggies but they weren't even baggies then but just like fill up your pockets I love the country. It's so great to come here, especially to see my friends like you two doing so great and having succeeded.

29:10 Well, there's not forced input up there. sow on a chain do you know what i'm talking about she's got a chain there's a woman walking her pig It's dead. Does Paul live up there, too? What does Paul do in these days? Thank you, man. restaurant just kind of ironic I don't get it. well they don't advertise right yeah if you're invited Yeah, I saw. a good portion of the movie from the stage you know like when he says you know we went back

33:18 Yeah, neither did I. Yeah, I mean, but even before you got out of the car I think AOL would have gotten a lot more fucking trouble. basically. It was for the Southern And so at that point, I had just sort of put my whole life together, and I just wanted to say, you know, kids come from somewhere, man. I came from somewhere, and then I told my story. Yeah. And the end of it. I said the everybody comes from somewhere I come I came from so and then I told my story. Yeah, and then I talked about it

35:51 That show was over. the more you used, the more you paid. These people are exchanging pictures of children being raped. And I went, you know what, I'm going to see you Tuesday at the hearing or whatever day it was. He's busy. Please. He just signed on as kids. And it just came pouring in. Frank Capra movie and I asked Barry to write a screenplay but this is right

Guilty people did so i disclosed but i didn't admit anything and they tell you the deep dark secret he had no i Yeah. And then I didn't say, hey, remember to say this or remember.

42:37 And Bob's movie about my life is something I'm very, I put my money on the right, you know, the right spot on the table. The fight was I'm going down there. I just said, Bob's making a movie about my life. victims of abuse Barry went into... Well, the original big salad is what I'm talking. Yeah It's just so, and your sister's crying. you know, and to me,

45:12 about the movie which is very sweet because it was any of that usable and i said i don't know I didn't want to imply that it was imbued with some sort of supernatural power because this rapist had been there. place for so long i wasn't going to walk up to the door and give it the kind of power that i So it's, you know, I mean, it's a fucking beautiful bow on like a ridiculous package.
