Music

What's up guys, bonus episode today, Thursday, January 23rd, thanks for tuning in, my voice is getting better, it's been a couple days since Monday, but I can talk finally, so that's on the trail, back, 10 bottles of night, well, lots of sleep, I'm still doing shows, I just go do shows, and then I come straight home, go right back to bed,

classic, man, you know, hard that is not to go to a show and just hang out all night and talk, but yeah, I'm feeling better, thank God, because I got to go to the NAMB Show tomorrow and interview Rackers, got to interview some Rackers, out at the NAMB Show tomorrow, NAMB Show, if you don't know what that is, you'll find out on an episode coming up, NAMB Show, it's basically like a car show, but with all music equipment,

which is cool, it's just full blown fucking geek nerd fast, like ooh, look at that, let's all see more dunkin' pickups, cuss on tuners, oh man, silver sparkle, gretch drum kit, just like the one the Beatles used, it's all dudes, all dudes are then like cougars on the outskirts,

looking to move in on some of their old school Rack, Rack dudes, they've always wanted, because there's like old school Rack guys there that are doing like endorsements and stuff, I'll get into it later, but anyway, starting to feel better, hope you like that episode, Monday, with DJ Will, that was pretty cool, right, A&R Guy, let's you into that world, DJ Will, good guy, he's gonna be out there at the NAMB Show,

today, I got a comedian on it, a lot of people go, hey man, you're a comic, you don't have that many comedians, you don't talk about your comedy that much, believe me, I can fucking talk comedy for 24 hours straight, and I wouldn't stop, I just, you know, there's a lot of podcasts out there with comedians on it, so for me to have one on it, it's gotta be someone I really, really like, and that's this guy, Ricky.

He's one of the funniest guys I've ever seen at the comedy story, absolutely destroys, he's a master at crowd work, which is super hard to do, if you watch the Louis CK's show, Louis, on FX, he actually has one episode, which I thought was amazing, he tipped his hat to,

crowd workers, it was an episode where he had his, he had to like watch his niece or something, so he had show, so he had to take her to the shows, and he takes her to Caroline's, or no, he takes her to the, the seller, and God frees up, and he's killing with crowd work, and the niece goes to Louis, I like him, he's funny, and Louis is like, oh man, he's just doing crowd work, you know what I'm saying?

You know, he's like pissed, like that's nothing, and she's like, I don't care, he's funny, I love him, and then in the next scene, you see Louis on stage, trying to do crowd work, and he's just eating, and he's like, hey, that's a nice shirt, nice shirt you wore, is that your shirt? And people are like, what the fuck?

And the way I interpreted it, that is obviously he was tipping his hat to crowd work, which was cool, and that's what Rick Ingram does, you'll figure out how he got into that style, you'll find out how he got into that style in this episode, and how people don't like to go on after him, it's fucking hard.

I talk about it, it's the hardest guy to go on after, he got a guy that does amazing crowd work, and now you gotta step on and do shit you planned, it just looks fake right out of the box, and you gotta figure out how to make your stuff not look fake.

So I like going on after Rick, it's really hard, and I learned so much from watching Rick.

Great guy, he also talks about moving out to LA, and his mini van getting his heart broken, and he talks about having diabetes.

Two years ago he found out he has full blown diabetes, which is amazing, I wanted to talk about that, because it's funny, I know all kinds of shit about music, I know all kinds of stuff about motorcycles, comedy, whatever, but I don't know shit about health, which is amazing, right?

Even in high school, like you take health class, I didn't tell you like here's the deal, you eat this shit you die, they were just like soft touching sex, like this is how you get in the vagina, stuff like that, it's like teach people man, I found out some good stuff on this episode about how you get diabetes, that had no idea.

So Rick Ingram today, awesome guest, love you Rick, find him on Twitter, and see him at the comedy store, guys amazing.

Speaking of Louis, my birthday is coming up, and I was just thinking about how tired I am at night, you know, like every time I'm tired, like oh god, I gotta go out and do a show.

I think about Louis CK, and I wanted to just thank him, because this guy is fucking like 45, he has two kids, a TV show, a stand up career, and you know probably a girlfriend, I don't know, but that's like three full time jobs, and this guy gets up and just goes out and does it.

I can't even have a dog, he's got two kids, a TV show, and a stand up comedy career, so thanks man, because you inspire me to get the fuck out of bed, so thank you Louis CK, and you know, like I said this is a comedy episode, so I just give some shout outs to people who love Norm McDonald, I still think Norm McDonald's special, Norm McDonald doing stand up,

I think it came out two years ago, is by far one of the funniest things I've seen in years.

Either you get Norm, or you don't I guess, I guess that seems to be the thought on Norm, I just, I get him, and I'll take him non-stop, god the guy is funny.

If you haven't seen it in your comedian coming up, watch it, Norm McDonald doing stand up, he taped it live at the film or San Francisco, just amazing, this guy's style, Norm.
