00:00Part of the reason I do comedy is to impress my father.
00:02Because I think that he likes people that are funny.
00:05We were all playing games the other day.
00:07It was this game called Things.
00:08It's like Cards Against Humanity,
00:10but you get to write in your own response.
00:13And we had a prompt come up during the game.
00:15It was, things you would do if you were the opposite sex for a day.
00:18And I tried to be funny.
00:20I was like, if I was the opposite sex, I would drink for free,
00:22assuming I'm hot, you know?
00:24Nobody laughed.
00:25Kind of like now.
00:26And then it was my dad's turn.
00:29I was like, things you would do if you were the opposite sex for a day.
00:31And he said that he would let the homies hit it.
00:44I was like, I'm going back to L.A.
00:46This is crazy.
00:47I'll never be better than you.
00:49I guess you just don't love me.
00:50I don't know. I got nothing.
00:51That's crazy, man.
00:53In his defense, I was not a great kid, man.
00:57You guys know the show Jackass?
00:59Yeah.
01:00About 20 years ago, we made a Jackass video,
01:02which I thought was a lot of fun.
01:03We were the only ones with a camera in the house.
01:05It already had a tape in it.
01:06We grabbed it, ran around, shot a video.
01:09It was awesome.
01:10We even premiered it to my parents.
01:11And they were loving it.
01:12They had a great time.
01:13Until the tape kind of cut and fluttered onto what was actually on there.
01:15It was my parents' wedding.
01:17I taped over my parents' wedding with video of me kicking my brother in the balls.
01:25I mean, quality nut tap.
01:27I'm not going to lie to you.
01:28But it doesn't beat their first kiss.
01:31You know?
01:33They say, do not try this at home.
01:35You could really hurt yourself.
01:36There's a lot of truth in that.
01:37Because my dad beat the shit out of me.
