2:14

be careful well of course I was that Golden Corral so I didn't know I didn't see a lot of food sent back around ever my dad used to work in the food industry you know I mean so you know he said never send anything back even though contradictory with his actions he is one of the most most rude people in restaurants it's so fun and I

2:34

don't think he knows he does it sometimes but like we're at Carrabba's and they sent this pasta dish he eats it he goes it's just not how I remember it tasted the lady was like I'm sorry to go it's just not happy I was like did you just slam your hands on the table I was like oh he's fitting to get lit up in

2:52

4:49

chicken I'm so offended it's between a tough spot it puts me in a tough spot because we're friends because we're friends we have so much we have so much chemistry I'm gonna go ahead let that bypass and try to eat this way I appreciate that so I know that you started rapping at 13 and that comedy at 15 how does bombing on stage when you're

5:10

rapping compared to bombing on stage as a comedian like have you ever had some sort of eight-mile moment yeah how dude it's 2009 Elizabeth City is a freaking step show worse than you can have being a comedian is a litte Dance Crew why you gotta tell jokes you know why why because their energy does not match

5:35

5:55

9:25

really don't talk to them a lot you know we did it singing together you know it was cool and everything but you know those guys pretty much have like you know hit points that they do on stage me I don't care while I'm sexy you know we'll just made everyone looking at me pregnant [Music] Wow tastes like ramen noodles i J we have a

9:48

recurring segment on our show called explain that Graham where we do a deep dive on our guests Instagram pull interesting pictures that need more context I wish I wish I wouldn't have archived so much on my shoe well we got some good ones good all right so here you are with Denzel Washington yep that's at the AFI Lifetime

10:09

Achievement Awards and um I walked up to him I was a a I don't know if you know Jaime sir oh snap I know you are negro yeah you owe me money you know whatever you owe me a lot of money and the way he said it I was like yo Joey right I do a lot of money because I have made a lot of cake from doing the in president and I'm like [ __ ] so it was so dough we had

10:34

this moment as we're talking they flash a picture and we both stopped and posed for the camera so this that happened so say but I'm gonna call pitching where you gonna pitch you do your pose face sure all right so I was like this cuz I can't man so yeah man so anyway so um yeah bro I appreciate your work I love your picture

10:52

yeah man it's like that was the sweetie should ever and Chris Tucker's behind so Chris Tucker immediately grabs his that is a man this is gonna take a picture my son man right here man I'm like yo man I wanted to get a picture for myself so they take the picture together and then Denzel go to sit down and I would say

11:10

Chris man you messed myself cause I wanted to take a picture he said man go ahead over there man go ask a man he gonna take a picture with you man just don't let him get too comfortable yeah soon as he gettin older but something like that you know hang over you taking a picture right now he got on his head he just sat down so I walk over

11:24

there I said mr. Washington can I please take a picture with you heõs yeah you can take a picture if you've been lean down can you lean down can you lean can you drop a like his hot if you can drop it now we're definitely didn't say drop like I but he said you can lean that I'll take this picture with you

11:39

I said I'll bend down ain't gonna bend over but I will bend down for you miss watch on a bent down we took that picture and I was quiet and I was so happy with my Eddie Murphy smile it's a great picture yeah he doesn't look too amused I did my Shaquille o Neal impression with Kenny the jet Smith and Charles Barkley

12:02

it was so funny Kenny was like can you do it in Charles Barker's like yo man that's crazy you're gonna do it so I so I did the impression and there's no there's no freaking lines but it didn't matter you know why cuz I my eyes across I can't read anything anyway so when I was on SNL and I would do that character I would have to like flash take a

12:21

picture of my mind of what was being said and then when it was my turn to talk like Kenan would like hit me like this and I would I would go cuz you didn't have a safety net no I don't have a safety net and I can't I can't see the lines you know I mean so on this one yeah I freestyle the whole thing are like my troops what to do

12:39

I love dudes awesome okay so it's all good awful Shaq it's amazing love chef chuckle love it love it and I did that and it went over one over great and Shaq like it yeah you're black fly low enough people tell them I'll keep doing keep doing we like the owner Shack keep no on a Shack don't stop doing them so arias no

12:59

I think it's really funny it's really funny you're funny you're really funny you're very funny very funny guy very you funny you can't kick you know why you're the [ __ ] chair you're gonna chair you can't use your legs you can't kick [ __ ] so that's such a lovely segue because we'd be remiss not to mention that

13:22

you're one of if not the best impressionist of our time what are the mechanics of a great comedic impression like it seems like there's this immediate off actor where you're like oh that's recognizable I know that but then there's something that yeah that you change to make the joke last okay first you want a voice that you want a voice

13:45

that everybody knows but not necessarily knows that's the first key to it second is taking those parts of of their character and exaggerating them fully like you know what you do you know oh you do little baby man man man guys hopefully I'll do way how do you know you just take that hang in hang it just have them playing a banjo Oh taro like

14:17

this you know upset so you take the little bit you just exaggerated oh no that's crazy wait wait wait [ __ ] I'm the baby okay any no I heard oh and your show white famous one of the gags is that you'll use Denzel Washington's voice as a way to you know more attractive ladies I do that I do that really that sounds gonna

14:37

ask have you ever used voices for good or for evil in your real life like I'll walk around my house and [ __ ] like okay y'all get the walk is fine get the walk so I walk around my house and [ __ ] like this must be looking I'll be passive I'm be you know certain I just I'll just walk I'll look up you don't know what I'm doing yet yeah I'll look

15:00

up [Music] that's fight is dead my [ __ ] is it true that Matt Damon is the one who put you on Steven Soderbergh's yep hey now it was Matt Damon who's Matt Damon shout out to Matt Damon shout out to Matt Damon shut off the Steven Soderbergh cuz I know where you're gonna segue to because we're like this I mean yeah yeah

15:24

but shared they won a set it might have been aa shion's Matt Damon was like I can't do all that damn he was like dude you gotta see this gotta see his impressions Stevens not a bad Matt Damon forever thank you got to see this impression you got to see it and then Steven Soderbergh was like oh he's good

15:44

he's real good and then I got insane because he wanted to show my dramatic chops at a twirl yep we're right here man right here we forget we write a mess aim paddleboat down the hot sauce room we're in a gondola me and the gondola that's right we ain't doing freaky [ __ ] we're just riding but we in the gondola together you're doing that

16:07

I drink hot sauce which is crazy I used to drink it when I was a fat kid and I was in church we had this kitchen right it was a kitchen now says it was like seven teen hot sauce bottles I drank all of them and at the time you probably didn't think you know at one point this will really allow me to shine on a youtube talk show that features chicken

16:35

wings did not know that crazy like what I didn't know but I did know Sean is that I'll never drink 17 bottles of hot sauce again says we touched on your last interview uh-huh you're a committed gym rat and it's clear that in the time sense you have not been skipping any reps no no I have not dude come on man put it up try it you
