Do you have any other hobbies outside of comedy and um, I'm not a big hobby guy But growing up my parents always used to say what are you interested in? Do you do anything? So they gotta be happy now Holy shit, look it worked out. My hobby is stand-up comedy. Really? I mean, I like to cook don't get me wrong I like to travel My wife and I really really enjoy going to different places and I love hotels It's I mean and these aren't really hobbies. It's just I like Hospitality, so that's my that's my passion. I like having people over at the house and Making them feel good. That's that's what I like to do. I like to entertain if I find out you like a specific drink or you like something that's You know, I take I take notice of what people like so when you come to my house, I got what you like there That's very Italian. It's very very Italian and I've always had I know I work for the Four Seasons Hotel and That chain taught me to anticipate people's needs. So Anytime I have anything at my house, whether it be a birthday party or get together if it's gonna be a fight I make sure when you come over you are taking care of not only with your alcohol needs Here's one. I ain't a pot guy. Right? I don't know smoke pot You want to start listen? But I got pot at the house just in case you want some really so I thought you know You have alcohol you have beer right you have scotch you have wine Right. So what if what if someone doesn't have a taste for alcohol and they want a joint? Wow, I got a couple of joints. What do you get it from PDC from the comic store? I think I got it from Gino from No, I think it's what's the med med men. Yeah, I went in there you went in there specifically just for hospitality hospitality If you came over and I go Joe you want to join and you like yeah, you want smoking No, I don't smoke but you know there have at it just to have Even a cigar I got cigar. I don't smoke cigars you want one I don't know. I get I get joy in making others happy So when you looked at your house, did you look at your house and go this is a good house to entertain in? Mm-hmm Yeah, I always see that like when you see like a YouTube video on a home and they're showing home So a wonderful entertainers home like entertainers home. That's what I mean. What does that mean a singer? Playing piano. What does that mean? I like I like a living room that bleeds into the kitchen All right, that's that's I like that right, right? There's not really a wall and between it's gotta be and then I like indoor outdoor you live in California Yeah outside maybe you want to have a drink outside and bring it back in yeah That's what they what's what they're talking about when it's an entertainer like a fire outside Oh fire pit fire pit Do you try to bring people like if you have a party you try to bring people over that you think would have interesting conversations? Yes although We have a problem at this particular point. We're in a transition period We have a child so I don't know if you went through this but a lot of Sometimes when you're coming from a single couple but a couple with no kids and now you have kids now you're you're finding other People who have kids. Yeah, right. So that's what we're in. We're We're not yet into the preschool So we're kind of in limbo. We're looking for new friends. Right that our old friends are are bad It's just now we have other obligations. We have a child We can't we maybe can't go out at the dinner at 8 o'clock at night We like we used to know now we're looking to bring it To the house. Yeah. No, I know exactly what you're saying We went through that exact same transition and a lot of times you pick up some dead weight along the way Running these people and the only thing they have in common is the kids of the same age And then you have to talk to some fucking guy. Oh They give you ear beatings about their job. Yeah, just like you just some people just not interesting. It's unfortunate Yeah, I mean you do run into that where you meet a guy like I went to a toddler group Last week now some sometimes I do this obviously because I want to hang out with my daughter But sometimes the material that comes out of going to something like that is gold. Yeah. Now. It's me 15 women and a Gay guy at this toddler group, right? So I mean it's just like it's almost writing it like rights itself Yeah, although I'm in a circle sitting Indian style the hell I mean it's it's strange but man it's That's the things I want to do because I feel if I live more of my life I could draw so much more humor from it and it's it's it's it's it's two-pronged It's I want to hang out with my family and I want to I don't want to talk to people who are living these life experiences because what I've noticed is I want to keep the same kind of lifestyle I've had when I wasn't successful because I feel when you start detaching yourself from the daily Routine, let's say even going to Target if you have somebody go to Target for you you know you miss out on like what happens on a day to day and I want to still keep that rich and and and available to me
