DJ Dadmouth is my favorite character that everybody's ever brought to a morning TV show. When you used to do that? That was so fun. I loved that you were doing that because I hated those shows. I was like, why would he do those shows? Morning TV is terrible. But then when you do morning TV dressed up like a fake rapper... She did. This lady. For people who don't know, Segura created a character called DJ Dadmouth and he would just show up places and the people did not know what the fuck to do with him because the lowest rung in all of show business is morning television host. I'm so sorry if you listen to this and you're a local morning television host. Look, I used to deliver newspapers. We all have bad jobs. Way better than morning host. It's one of the lowest rungs in all of show business. It's a weird rung where you're trapped. It's like you're broadcasting out of a Christian convenience store or something. It's very strange. The worst part too is the four of us plus like 90% of the acts working those clubs do not have a fan base watching that show. No way. You know what I mean? No way. You put it together, you're like, this is definitely a waste of time. We're wasting our time right now. And then if that's the only one that morning? Yeah, you're like... You woke me up at fucking six to do this? To do Good Morning Hartford. Five minutes. It only works when you get in trouble. Yeah. Like I remember one time I got shirtless and went up in the weather and started saying, there's thunderstorms. Tom did DJ. Have you ever seen Mark Normans? Mark Normans is great. When he just goes up and she goes, how you doing? He goes, kind of gay. Let's get this started. Hung over. Horny. Look at you. I mean, he just destroys but totally ruined the relationship for the club. Really? Did he really? A hundred percent. No, I went in there afterwards. How about Tracy Morgan? Tracy Morgan's was my first one. Yeah, that's the fucking legendary one. That's the one where he talks to... Someone gonna get pregnant. Horace Grant. Hollop. Yeah. He starts slapping. That's my mating call. Yeah, that was dying. They are dying. When he does that big one in Chicago, for sure, because I know you kept hollering at bulls to give him a... Like in the middle of it. Of course, come on. He just crashed. He just crashed his $2 million Bugatti today. Today? Yep. A Honda side swiped him. Whoa. In Hell's Kitchen. Some dirty Honda-driving Savage ran into a $2 million Italian sports car. Damn. I did a show with him like a year and a half ago, one of the oddball shows. And he came in an all-white Rolls Royce with a professional... Like with a driver, you know, like a chauffeur. And he came in all white and had like a fucking enormous gold chain with a medallion TM. And I was like, that chain looks crazy. Like $600,000. Some crazy shit. This is today? Yeah. Look at this guy side-swiped Tracy Morgan's convertible $2 million Bugatti. What? He's letting people know. Well, what's he even wearing? What's he even wearing? The Honda's defense. It's a very low car. He has a high car. He probably looked over, saw nothing. Yeah. Fuck you. Didn't know it was the car that was like two feet off the ground. It's such a small car. These cars are so hard to see if you're right next to them. What does that dude's insurance say when he calls? You what? I don't know if we can cover this. You don't fuck. That'll probably be like the final straw. Yeah. Probably kick him off the contract. For sure. Was that Tracy Morgan interview? That was kind of a had to be an inspiration doing the DJ dad mouth, right? To me, that was the first one I remember. Like, whoa. I guess someone could fuck with them. You could fuck with them in that way. Yeah. I mean, yeah. I mean, it was funny because some people would be really into having fun with you. Like the Tracy Morgan people. They laugh and have a good time. And then some people let me like, I could see how a club relationship could be. Because we left one of the clubs when I told him I was coming out as non-binary. And the lady was like, what? This is like on the air. I was like different genders. And she was like, all right. And she just turned to TV and she was like, ugh. She's wasn't. And then she called in like, we called the PR person that drove us to the club. Or to the venue. Didn't realize she's in the car with you still. What the fuck was that? She was like, that guy's so weird. Don't bring stuff like that in here. I was like, that's the whole point. We don't want to come in here. They think that what they're doing is serious. We're providing a wonderful morning show for downtown Pittsburgh. You're showing them how to make fucking pastrami sandwiches. Yeah, exactly. So dumb. What a great sandwich. Hey, thanks a lot. We've got the Christian Youth Group's going to sing for us next. I tried shitting on the last time I went to Cleveland. It was the normal. That's why I know the relationship's still fine. But there was a doctor before me. I was like, why does he wear his fucking doctor outfit to do this? On the way out, he put a sweater on and left. I was like, why can't that be him? And the guy was like, I don't know. It feels like you're stepping into Truman Show stuff. So contrived. There's nothing real about it. Especially when there's a 22-year-old PA or associate producer. One time I went in and I said, yeah, I'm already drunk from doing radio. I go, just put the mic on my necklace. And she goes, why? I go, I'm going to take my shirt off. She goes, you will not be doing that. And I said, you don't tell me what to do. She was like, excuse me. I'll be right back. And then came back and she goes, what is in your cup? And I said, whiskey. And she was like, he's drinking. He's drinking. What's she told on you? Oh my god. And I was just like, we should probably leave. So you just left? I just left. I was like, I don't want to get anyone fired. She's telling you you can't take your shirt off. Or have a drink. Yeah. Or have a drink. I love how it's like she's telling me, like she found something out. You're like, I was poor you in front of everybody. Like, I just need some. I don't want to drink out of the bottle. She thinks she's at an insurance company. It's hilarious that people don't know what job they're in. I'm trying to take it more serious.
