So get you live in this Buzzworthy Radio where you can get the latest Buzz and all your favorite children's stars. Buzzworthy, smart, now. Hi, welcome to Buzzworthy Radio on blobsnockradio.com. I'm your host, Neville J. Lee, coming to you on Tuesday, December 15th. I got it off this time, 2009, 10-30pm Eastern Standard Time, 7-30pm Pacific Coast Time. We are going to be joined by Gailah Johnson, many people may recognize her as Janet, Rob Lowe's right hand on ABC's highly acclaimed drama, Brothers and Sisters. We're going to be talking to her for about 15-20 minutes, a little bit about that much time. We'll be speaking with her. So she'll be joining us in a few minutes. For those of you who are listening right now, I wanted to give you a heads up on some upcoming shows that we're going to be having on before our guest gets here. We're actually going to be having on this Friday, make sure you guys check out this show, because I am highly anticipating the show. Looking forward to it, the wonderfulness that Julie Bens will be joining us, I don't want to give it away. If anybody has not seen XG yet, and if you haven't seen XG yet, you need to get a little on that. You need to see the seasonality of XG off of the charts hot, so hot. I know that's a little too generalized, I just saying that, but it's the truth. It was unbelievably amazing that even I didn't expect what was coming in this episode. It was absolutely phenomenal. It did amazing with this episode, and congratulations on the Golden Globe nomination, you guys. Absolutely. I can't wait to congratulate her for that. So yeah, they got a nice, wonderful treat by getting nominated for a Golden Globe. So, wonderful. That's wonderful. And a shout-out goes to my girl, Allison Brie. Allison Brie, if you're listening right now with the girl, I hear that Mad Men got a Golden Globe nomination as well. Congratulations to you guys. I'm actually thrilled with this year's Golden Globe nominees. I think it's going to be a really good year for the Golden Globe, so I'm looking forward to it. Now also, also during that segment on Friday, we actually taped an interview with Kendra from Bad Girl Club. We actually got to interview her and sit down with her. So that's -- I'll tell you this much about this one. That was interestingly good. Yeah, notice the nice pause there. I'm bad too, so it was interestingly good, simply because it seemed a little too on-point. It was a little too on-point. I wonder if that makes sense. It just seemed like really -- I don't know what it was about her, but she just knew where her head was at in the game and everything, and that's where the chips lie. And I will say this. It's interesting enough because I did ask her -- any of that stuff was real or fake. How a majority of that stuff was scripted or not scripted? I don't know, I'll say. Well, you'll see. I got my answers. I was pretty much surprised about what she gave me, so I'm looking forward to speaking with her -- I actually look forward to speaking with her this morning, actually. I'm looking forward to hearing what you guys think about this interview as well when this drops on Friday night. So Julie Ben, followed by Kendra, and followed by this interview as well. Followed by this one, we'll be airing all three of these live on Friday, but these two are Tate. Actually, yes, these two are Tate. We're just going to be airing them live on Friday for all of your listening pleasures alongside the Julie Ben interview, so definitely check that out. It's going to be a fun, wild ride on Friday night, you guys. Just back, relax, get some of the porn ready. Listen to this fantastic interview. I cannot wait to really hear what she has to say with Julie Ben's have to say about the feasibility of Dexter. I am utterly, utterly in shock still by the whole thing. That's just how good it was, and I was so happy when I heard the numbers. I was so happy I heard the numbers for the show because it received the highest ratings of a Showtime original series ever on the network. They really have done themselves, and this funny thing is, after that finale, now the producer, I believe, is leaving the show, if I'm not mistaken. I want to double check myself just to make sure, but I believe I've read that today before why I came into work. So I think, yeah, yeah, here it is, Clyde Phillips, Clyde Phillips, the executive producer/showrunner, is the partying series, and someone said, "Talk about leaving on a high note. You really left on a high note." That was an amazing finale, so that was good. That was really good. It's so hard. It's so hard to not want to say anything because I still don't know who has or who hasn't watched it out of everybody so far. I have no idea. I have no clue. So I want to talk about it, but then it's like I don't want to talk about it because I don't know who, so I'll watch. That's crazy, but, but for a show that basically keeps me on my toes throughout the entire time, that was amazing. That was amazing. Not a one show can keep me tuned into that as much as that one showed it. If you weren't a Dexter fan before, you would be a Dexter fan after Sunday. Just saying. Just saying. But it was a good show. It was a good finale. I cannot believe we were going to not have Dexter until next year, until September next year. That's a long wait. No more Dexter. No more mad men. Gosh, what am I going to watch in the news? Chuck is coming back in the new year. That I can't wait for. I cannot wait for Chuck to come back. That's going to be awesome. What a good show that was. I did never get used to that show until this time last year. No, not even. Not even. March last year. Actually, March of this year, I should be saying, I'm so glad of myself that I'm thinking that it's already 2010, even though it's already creeping up on us. I was actually vacationing in California. And my friends out there, they had the DVR and everything. We went out and hung out at dinner and everything, got back to the house and DVR Chuck. So they had me check out Chuck, and I thought that it was a really ingenious show. Loved it. Loved that show. It doesn't take much to get me addicted to something. It really doesn't, it really doesn't take that much for me to get into something. You could immediately just have me watch something like right off the bat, automatically I'd be hooked. And this is probably a weird thing for me, but I never thought that I would like comedies without a laugh track. I'm one that loves comedies with a laugh track. I don't get it. I don't get it. Maybe that's just a weird thing about it, but every time that I would think about wanting to watch a comedy show without a laugh track, I would always tune out because I don't think I would get them invested. I don't know. But speaking of comedies, are you seriously thinking like me, the office and the director are going to overtake the Golden Globes. I seriously do. I think they're going to overtake the Golden Globes again, like they always take over everything else. But I still think that all the nominations are good. I was surprised with George Clooney's nomination in a good way, in a good way. But we were trying to find out exactly what's keeping Jalen Johnson at the moment. We are figuring that out. So we are going to figure out exactly where she is at the moment, but in the meantime, we'll take a short little break while we contact her and we'll be right back. She asks hard-hitting questions. I want to know if you guys are wearing clean underwear tonight. She invites listeners to actively take part in the show. You want to put makeup on my husband? She shares her innermost feelings. You know, I'm going to go on the record and say I would like a blow up doll. It's broadcasting as only Annie can bring to the table. No, I mean really, with all the reality TV out there, that I would watch. Unfortunately, it's radio, and she knows her limitations. Oh yeah, oh yeah, I'm not right. Annie and Burl live, every Wednesday and Saturday night at 10 p.m. Eastern, 9 p.m. Central and 7 p.m. Pacific. You know, I have too much fun on Facebook. I don't know what it is. I'm like heavily addicted to the thing. If not that, then I'm also addicted to Twitter. I don't know what it is, but it's just, I'm just addicted to it that I cannot stop tweeting and I cannot stop. I can't stop tweeting and Facebooking. It seems like I need to go into a Twitter-holic anonymous meeting, you know, or a Facebook anonymous meeting. I just feel like I need to be doing that because I'm always on this thing. It's never ending. I'm on it at work. I'm on it now. It's terrible, you know, I'm on seg laying off of it, but it's the truth though. It's seriously the truth. I am always on Twitter. I'm always on Facebook. It's like you can always contact me every single which way and I just think it's hysterical. You know, I'm really surprised that I'm not off of this thing yet. I think it's still going to affect me until it now becomes like a fad that you just cannot deal with anymore. It's kind of like stuff from the early '90s. You know, we had a lot of fads back then, and all of a sudden it just stopped. That was it. We just don't care about that stuff and there you go. That's how it rolls. I love it though. I love it. Twitter and Facebook are addicting the which ones better. I'm hearing people saying that they love Twitter and everybody loves Facebook and everybody loves book. I love both of them actually. The cool thing about Twitter is that, you know, a lot of celebrities have Twitter. You never know exactly when you'll probably get a response from one of those celebrities. I think that's one of the coolest things ever. Having a Twitter response from a celebrity, I think that's the coolest thing that lots of people will not forget. You could actually go in and say, "I have a fan response from Twitter," and you could be pretty much set for life. I love that. Awesome. I think everybody should get a Twitter. Well, that's just how I roll. I'm all over them that, baby. That's where I lie, but I guess we missed out on Gala coming into the show tonight. We will try to reschedule, absolutely, but, you know, things come up, you know, things happen, you know, something inevitable comes up that you never thought on, but we will definitely reschedule what we could have done, but I just want to make sure that you guys tune into our show on Friday with Julie Ben from Dexter, Rita from Dexter, her second visit. Our second time with her, her second visit on the show, I'm looking forward to it. I cannot wait to talk to her about it and find out what's going on with her. Catch up. Catch up. Lost time, man. It's been a year since we had on the show, so I'm looking forward to speaking with her again. So make sure you guys check it out. Be on at 9 p.m. up, up, there it is. I can't extend the time. Oh, snap. I'm going to try. I'm going to try. Okay. We're going to run with it anyway, because of all we're going to run with it. Gala, how are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm good. I'm good. I like had it up and our time segment like went off and so it's not hurt live now. But we can easily record it, all of you recorded, and I'll air it on Friday when we have our big, big show on Friday, so everybody will definitely be hearing you. So there's always a way, always a way, right? I believe that. Yeah. Yeah. Always. But thanks. Thanks for making out of here anyway. I'm so glad you did. Well, me too, me too, you know, these are good, you know, I'm flexible for doing it now or later. So cute. No. Let's go ahead. Let's go ahead and run with it. I'm on game. If you're game. Are you game? Totally. Totally game. All right. All right. Let's get it going. So. All right. Most of us know you for brothers and sisters, Janet. Cool. Yeah. You got some, we got some brother and sisters fans listening to this, that listen to this show. And fantastic. Yeah. And yeah, they like that show. I look at that saying. They know good taste when they see it. Yeah. Good taste. That's not my buy. I'm just saying. So, so, so, so who is Janet? I mean, we basically just see her as Rob Lowe's character is like right hand woman. Basically. You know, Janet, Janet is the come is the modern day Condoleezza Rice no doubt. You know, she just, she just backs, she just backs the president, she's politically correct. And you know, always trying to make a good impression. Okay. Very cool. And I do have to ask of being on that show as critically acclaimed, highly acclaimed show on ABC, and working with such talented actors and actresses like Sally Flora and Rob Lowe. Working opposite of those guys, when you do, what's it like being on set with those actors and actresses, being a part of that cast, being a part of that Ganges, because it's just, you're right now working with like the epitome, epitome of class. Right. It's thrilling. It was magic. I wasn't on this set with Sally Fields, I was on set with Callissa Lockhart and Rob Rob Lowe and the other actor, let me get his name. I just escaped me, but I was going to set it with them and it was, it was amazing. I probably, if they call me back in, I'll probably be doing more episodes with them and hopefully get a chance to work with Sally Fields and some of the other ones. It's fantastic, they're so amazing, so professional, they do it with ease, so they can do a blindfolded the way that, you know, the skills they have, the levels they have, and I just pick up so much, you know, good information, good feedback and overall energy from it. Absolutely. Doing that show is definitely a lot different than what I recently heard that you do. You do comedy on stage. I'm the fan of the comedy now, I'm the fan of the comedy. You're a fan, huh? Well, yeah, comedy is awesome, you know, I do it on stage, I do it in acting, it's the best thing. I kind of picked up comedy as a way of doing something and keeping current while I'm waiting for my big acting debut to happen, you know, and so many, it is fun, because now I have more skills and more talent and more opportunities to go out and follow. You have more to delve with as well with everything that you do, besides that, that you can incorporate into your comedy act. Of course, yeah, and everything that happens is the part of the act. I tell the audience, you know, if they're getting a heckler, excuse me sir, you might want to back off, because if you don't, you're going to be in my next show. You're going to be in my next show, yeah. Oh, see? See? See? This guy in the audience, my last gig, if you did this, oh yeah, it's just, you've got to incorporate it, because it's life, it's all a part of life, and my life, and yeah, comedy is such a powerful, you know, public speaking form, and it's the only one without a fourth wall, so you can do anything. It's dangerous. Absolutely. It is dangerous, and one of the things I always am intrigued about comedy is from being in comedy, doing comedy on stage, and doing, like brothers and sisters, let's put that on the forefront, is it hard for you to come up with stuff for your comedy act, because I think that's the toughest medium to do. No, I tell you what, at the beginning you wonder, yeah, what am I going to do? Am I going to please the audience, am I going to try to make them laugh, am I going to imitate somebody that I've seen, that I admire, am I going to try to figure out what they want to hear? It's that, you go through that, but then after a while, you're going to deal with all my mind. I'm not complaining, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to send someone tonight, that'd be good, or I'm going to, you know, give my opinion about something recent in the news, or how I'm feeling about something that happened to me. If you want to be honest, then it's easy, because, you know, if you want to be honest and share yourself, and, you know, the material you talk about, the thing that come out of you is very organic, genuine, unique, and guess what, original, because nobody, nobody else lives your life, so. That's true, that is true. Now what, basically do you use in your comedy bits, like, what are some of the things that you say? Give us a little show, give us a little show right now. Oh my god, what don't I talk about, it talks about my relationship with my husband, who happens to be white, and I'm, I'm not, so I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm going to put it, he's, he's white, and I'm fine, there you go, I'm fine, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm on your tone, now you mean, you know, boys in LA, you know, mom's black, dad's black, I'm black, just how it goes. And my husband, Modesto, farmer, guy, you know, his best friend, you know, with a tractor, so that's kind of where we're coming from. You know, the conflicts and stuff that go on there, there's a lot, a lot of stuff like little, little stuff like we live in this house, it's not really a house, it's a duplex, which is an interesting way to live, you know, I have one side in myself, which is the one bedroom, one back, he has a two, two bedroom, two back side because, well, you've got more spaces, he had the credit, you know, how to go. Oh, okay. And it's, it's great, we, I talked about the dynamics to live in here where, you know, I can, we have a door that we build in the middle of the unit, so, you know, I can lock it on my side, and he has to go to my front door to see if I, if I'm home, and I can, you know, I can know him if he's tripping, but it's fun, I love, I bet, um, I talked about, like, before I got married trying to date, certain guys that come up to me with that certain divinear way of talking like, no, what's up, what's up, what's up, what's up, what's up, what's up, you know, oh, yeah, you pretty much just described pretty much every gangster black guy that is on the face of this planet. You sure you weren't hitting up any guys from Compton? I'm not sure actually. I even, I even say, once I do that on stage, you know, and that guy was Asian. Oh. Yeah. Silence. Okay. Not really. Of course not. But who knows, you know, but it is, it is a, that's, you know, it's, it's a slice of life every show, because I change it according to the audience, but I can't, I don't impose a set list on anyone that I basically watch the show and go, well, you know, there's another comic talking about, you know, how guys pick up on it. So, you know, I probably won't do that bit because they've seen that, you know, they've had enough of that because of something else, like, you know, cops, cops pull you over all the time. I mean, for different reasons. And, you know, me in a comic, I'm always got a little smart mouth on me, whatever. So they, they ask these questions, you know, why I pulled you over? I'm like, um, geez, I don't know. You want to, you need a ride? I guess? Why do you ask me questions? Maybe let me ask you a question, I'll say, do you have a, do you know why I stopped? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, as you were going, apparently not fast enough, I guess. Let me ask you, do you know how fast I'm going to have to go to make up for this time? I can't. Yes. So I do that in little stuff like that and talk about, from family to friends to, to, you know, making a living. Just a two-general, wonderful, everyday stuff that people can relate to, you know. Mm-hmm. Now, have you ever, when you, when you first started out doing this and you started incorporating like family, friends and everything like that, were you afraid or, or not afraid, then maybe that's a too strong of a word. Were you contemplating or thinking about how they would react to being used in your comedy that like, would they be offended or would they appreciate it and like that kind of stuff? Absolutely. Absolutely. Anybody that, yeah, anyone I was close to or loved and, you know, going to talk about them, I'm like, oh my God, I'm going to be estranged from the family. They're never going to talk to me. I'm not going to get any Kris Kringle gifts this year. You're going to get the lump of coal, that's what you're going to get. Not even the coal. You're going to get a lap of the faces and I'm going, I don't know. Oh my God, you know, and they find out and they start pulling out baby pictures and, you know, doing your high pictures of me and giving me the questions. Baby pictures. Oh my God. Oh, I was terrified. But I, I tried to like find a way to tell them that, yeah, I'm doing this joke about like my dad's friends and he was, he was a mystery sensitive about it, you know. And I told them, I said, yeah, I got a joke that I do. And he was like, what did you tell me about me for? I'm not saying anything terrible, but remember, but back in the 60s, the kids used to teach me about my dad's hair because he had a huge afro and it was, it was big, it was too big. And he was like, you know how we would break the afro and then we'd pick it out with the way to get the airflow through it. So it was bouncy. It was a big bouncy thing, you know, he walked down the hallway is bouncing two seconds behind his head. He turned to the left him and two seconds later it bounced and spiraled his hair everywhere. It was because, you know, I'm talking about it and so he's dad is like, oh, that's cool. Why don't you talk about what your mama would you talk about what somebody else? So he, he's a, you know, and he actually heckled me in a show once it was very funny and I, you know, he came to see this show and he stood up and said, my hair wasn't like that. You want me to bust out the pictures and show everybody? I love it. I love it. Now who, I know you work with a lot of people here, let's tell everybody, who have you shared the stage with? Oh man. Let's see. That's a good process. You know, I worked abroad and in the late. So, you know, I've worked abroad and in the late, so, you know, I think I'm going to use a good process, you know, I've worked abroad and in the late, so, you know, I've shared a stage with Chris Rock, I've worked with, you know, I've been trying to, I've been trying to use something like that with Chris Rock because, you know, everybody was like, everybody who sees me, they say, I look like him and I'm like, no, I don't. And they're like, yeah, you do. And I could see everything, I was like, okay, so what if I told you I was Chris Rock's brother? Would that get me anywhere with you? Well, and then they're like, no, then I'm like, well then, why did you tell me I looked like Chris Rock then? Get out my face. Well you could try, you could try, but then you've got to deal with the way Tony Rock looks because he's out there, that's Chris Rock's brother. Now he's a comedian and he's got some press and some shows and things he's doing. He's hot, so he's out there, he's a good looking guy too. So, if you're Chris Rock's brother, because they're Chris Rock's other brother. Um, the other brother, well look, we're all brothers, right, why don't we just use that excuse? Yeah, yeah, that would work, that you never know, that would totally work, that would totally work. Um, Tony, get out, let me see, Chris Rock is just amazing, um, the people that I've performed with. It's, I've been in the business, it's like, it's sort of like, um, well, in London there's, there's a whole bunch of people that I've, I've been in the last four years I've been going over there performing. They got a comedy store over there as well, Comedy Camp and Comedy Cafe, but um, I see, uh, I was trying to remember all my, yeah, even, when you, when you think about it, it's weird. You know, it should come to my, like that fan and Don D.C. Curry, Mark Curry, um, Family Store, Joey Medina, um, when all the Ray, I was on the stage with him, Doug McCraum. These guys, Doug McCraus, Shang and Rusty D, Beth Donahue and I, we co-headlined a club, uh, Joker's, um, I was in Oklahoma years ago, um, but Mark Curry, and Mark, I was in the show with Mark Curry when he, his, his game shows, you remember the show, it was called Don't Forget Your Tooth Plush, the whole, the whole, the whole audience was cast and we all had to pack an overnight bag and sit in the audience and then if we got selected to come up, it's like, don't forget your toothbrush because if you win, they're going to put you in a limo and take the rugby airport and you're going someplace, that's the idea. Of course, uh, I was a contestant and, uh, I didn't win, but, uh, hey, you don't win everything, but I, you know, that's true. That's true. That was, uh, that was a, uh, humbling experience as well as when I was on a, uh, wipeout. Now that's crazy. You were on wipeout? Uh, so wipeout. I was a contestant. I knew I, I didn't think I'd win the 10 grand, but I do think I was getting my 10 minutes of fame. I was a one. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was a, I was a one in that leopard print, body type thing. It was a white body suit. I heard about that. Okay. Yeah. I didn't see it, but they were telling them about it to me at work, so. Yeah. Yeah. I'll, uh, that, that reality show was like the reality check. I'll never do it again. But hey, I was having fun. It is fun to do that. You know what you should, you know what I could see you making fun of? I, and you know, I love, I, I love Kendra with all my heart. I thought through this morning, I love her with all my heart. So I could see you making fun of a show like Bad Girl Club. Bad Girl Club. Really? Uh huh. Okay. Why is that? You know, I, I, this, this show is, this, all these chicks up in this house basically clash and all over the damn place. Think of that. You're probably going to get into a cat fight, probably in every single show that you're in and it just seems like they, they can't agree with anything. It's like, I'm broken now. I got to get up in your face and yell at you or something. That's pretty much how bad it is up in this crib. Well, yeah, you get a bunch of women together and they're all rotating on, on the same moon and all the cycles happen together. Yeah, you can, you can pull, you can pull the weed out. You can, you can pull one person's weed out and all of a sudden they, they're like, oh, it's on now. And there you go. Just like one piece of hair. Exactly. That would be, that would tangle us up. That would definitely tangle us. And I know that. You know, because that's, because what every woman, because you know, what every woman wants, you, that's why, you know what the answer to that is, right? What does every woman want? They want a man. They want a man, no, no, no, no. They want a man that has money. They want a man that has money so they can take them out and go to all these expensive places and basically show them all. There you go. Get some fur, get some jewelry, get some whatever and get some, period. That could be, and I, I would have to agree. I'd have to agree. I think there are women, that one other women, but they cut, they, they would take a man too. My brother wants to tell me what every woman wants is what another woman's got. That makes sense too. Yeah. And yeah, so if he's got better weeds than me, then we got, we got, we got, we got a deal with that. I don't have any hairs. Now I'm going to know what happened to your hair. Yeah, they all pull it out because I broke a girl's nail. That's, that's fine. Did I put that out there now? Not him, but then I'm, you're going to edit that out. You have that power. Yeah, I do. I, I do, man. I don't use it to the best of my abilities though. If I embarrass myself on air, I embarrass myself on air. Everybody's entitled to do it. You know what I mean? Hey, you're, you're human. Yeah. You can do that. You're human. It's all good. You know, you know, you do, it's going to be natural to human. That perfection stuff nowadays, this is boring. Nobody is that perfect. Nobody's perfect. Absolutely not. Hello, Tiger Woods. Are you listening? Uh-huh. There you go. And we're all sitting on pins, exactly. We're all sitting on pins and needles like hoping Obama don't go south. Yeah, I know. Claiming that Michelle's going to keep them in line? I don't know. Michelle's, Michelle's thinking about other things now. She don't have to worry about Obama. She'll, if he's going to keep on me, somebody's going to tell me I don't get to follow him. He's going to take a letter from Tiger Woods and his wife to learn how to use that nine iron. Four right up into his little pot. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. It's incredible. He, he definitely, he definitely did, he definitely did play 18 holes. I'm just saying. But you know what's funny, what's weird about like the press and stuff like Tiger Woods? Now you know, now all of a sudden his wife has an identity with us. Like she suffered and she upset. Now I'll say she. Well, yeah. I mean, you know, what if her book came out? How I get with Tiger Woods? That's not how it's me. Now she's somebody who didn't listen to me. She's a victim. And you know, you know, like that John and Kate plus eight issue, you know, how tired I got of that. How I was ready to run my car up and then that and up into that house and go like, I'm tired of John and Kate plus eight, get off my ring. You all need to go somewhere with your messed up looking hair and you have all these eight kids up in the house. I don't get as bad as he is. So what goes somewhere? You're 15 minutes and pain is off. Exactly. Anything that can be milked will be. That is incredible. As long as we're listening, as long as we're tuning in, you know, books being made, action figures being made, movies are coming out. Oh, no. I can't imagine he was going to play Tiger Woods and his wife or John and Kate in the movie, the TV movie. I don't know. I don't even want to go there. Let's not go there. Exactly. Where can people find you? Where can they see you? I know you've got to show them 18, right? Yes. I got to show on the 18th. I got to show, I'm going to be hosting a New Year's Eve red carpet event coming up on December 31st, 2009. It's a New Year's Eve party. I'm going to host it and perform. There's good. You got to pick up three other artists there, Brooklyn, Jai, Suzanne, Nichols and Detox. They're going to be singing and performing as well as an open bar. It's in Sherman Oaks. A place called CAP is called Complete Actors Place. It's at 13752, the Turbo of Art Sherman Oaks, California 91423. They have a website that you can look it up. It's called Complete Actors Place. It's just like the sounds that come out. I got loads coming up. I do all the stuff all the time. You know, around town you can always find me at the website, galojawson.net. I definitely got to put that up on the website so everybody can locate our galojawson.net. Are you on Twitter at all? Are you one of those that is addicted to Twitter like I am? I am not yet on it or addicted. I've been fighting the urge. I know. I don't tweak Twitter. I do the my space and Facebook and everything, but I have not graduated to the Twitter yet. It's just another reason to stay on my computer. But you're addicted to it. Maybe I should be a part of it. I don't know. What's the bad part about that? I am addicted to it. I'm on it all the time. You have no idea. You have to pride me out of my chair with a crowbar in order for me to get off of Twitter. You could probably use that in your whole thing. I'm a totally random book to the geek that is addicted to Twitter. I will not get any girls to go out with me. If I do, it will probably be some ugly looking thing on the other side of the computer that is probably using one of those fake form-bought pictures as a geek ball. That is the type of chick that I don't even want him getting. He's going to be this big fat woman with these boomer hanging out all the way down to their feet. Oh, man. I just gave you some raw material right there, baby. Yeah, you get out. Loving it. Loving it. Well, I got to look in this Twitter. You know, my husband twits and tweets and Twitter's. I just haven't had the time to set up an account. And then, you know, what? There's tag too. People are tagging me. There's all going to be taken out. Yeah. People wink in and wink in and wink in and see. I have to figure things out. Yeah. I'll get around to it. But I think I should check your Twitter. What's your Twitter space? I can go check it out. I have two of them. I do have two of them. One is actually for the show and one is actually just for myself or my close peeps. The one I use both of them the most, obviously. Add buzzworthy radio is the main one. Oh, okay. Okay. Yeah. Went to your website and was like, "Wow. Great." All right. Well, I'll get Matt one now. Matt props to Travis who made that site for me. So I got even mad props for that. Yes. And you go out and do a lot of red carpet stuff. So that's awesome too. Not a video. I cannot believe that I did that actually. It was a hundred and ten degrees out. I thought I was going to faint on my feet. It was bad bad, but it was so much fun process. So it didn't even bother me as much as I thought it was, but it was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it. I really enjoyed it. But yeah, you definitely got to get on Twitter. You got to get on Twitter. That is your new year's resolution is to get a Twitter. Get a Twitter. Get a Twitter. That is an interesting new year's resolution to get a Twitter. It almost sounds like you get the shakes or something. Get Twitter. It's a Canadian Twitter. Walking to one of those shops. You got a Twitter. I don't know. I should check it out. My husband does it. Yeah. And I've gotten some requests. People want to follow me on Twitter. And it's amazing how whoever thinks of these kinds of technology, that's just a lot of, there's a lot of celebs that are on Twitter. We're not far from having cameras actually follow us or in our house. You know, we're going to do it. Don't give up any ideas. They might actually take it and run with it. Do you follow, what celebrities do you follow on Twitter? Do you follow me? Neil Patrick Harris is just one of them. I live from Ollano, Nathan Scullion, Jim Carrey. Helen DeGeneres is another one, Regis and Kelly. Day to day, moment to moment, they're basically saying what they're up to. Saying what they're up to. I saw a lot of the folk people on there as well. All the folk celebs as well. And that's pretty much it. I don't follow anybody bigger. You know, and it's just cool that you get responses from these cats from time to time. And it's like, wow, I got a response from us from Ollano. That's awesome. What do I do now? And it's really them. It's not an assistant. It is not an assistant. It's actually them. Cool. Cool. Fantastic. I don't know where people find the time, but they do. That's awesome. Another way to connect the fans. It's like on their phone. All they got to do is tweet on their phone and they're done. It's like they're hanging out on a signal break. That's all they're doing is tweeting right on their phone using like apps on the phone for Twitter. That's how it rolls. Wow. You are the man. You've got it all down. I admire that. You know, you're good. You stay up with technology. You're the younger generation. You annoy me. I have to try to stay up on I do. If I don't, then I get made fun of. And I'm pretty much called the door for not staying with us. But even this podcast rocks, right? This is what I, you know, this is pretty cool what you're doing. How long have you been, I'm not going to review you. That's a, that's a, two years. Two years. Two years. You're rocking it. It's just, it's like you've been in business for 10 years. It's the site you have and the person I love. I just love you and the white women. I just love it. All right. Well, I thank you for that. Yeah. We just celebrated two years last month. So, you know, it's, I won't, I won't stop doing this until they fire me. I probably won't stop being after that, though. Never, never, never quit. Never stop. I'd like to show you the videos. You, and yeah, this is the same thing for you, absolutely. You know what you should do? If you don't already, you should have videos of like all of the stuff that you do on stage on your site. Really? You mean like the stand up, the stand up back or? Yes. I do have some clips on my Myspace, which I guess I didn't even reference that. It's just, you know, my face is a fad. My face is a fad that ended. I don't even use my face anymore. I don't. I love Facebook and Twitter. Those are the only two things I use. My face is the thing of the past. So unfair. I just learned to pimp out my Myspace. No, anyway, I added one or two things, but you're right. It's like my Facebook or Twitter now. And as soon as I get with that, it's going to be something else, but that's okay. I don't believe it. I believe it. I wish I could come up with this stuff, though, because I want their money. You know, you can't. Just think about your needs, what you want, design and get with a person that writes programs and say, "Make it do this and this and this." And then they'll write the program. You get, I don't know how it's done. I'm just saying, like anything else, people have a concept of a film. They get writers behind it, band, creator, credit. I guess. But I have to have seen a way to post video on Facebook, because every time he posts something, it goes down to the bottom of the screen and more people post stuff. And you got to scroll to find any videos that were posted, right? Posting it on your own wall for videos or posting stuff. There's this tab where you can upload your video on your hard drive onto your Facebook. And then you can post a link if it's posted on YouTube or something and just post it that way. And you write little short clips with me doing different things on stage. It would be fantastic. I think I'll do it, because that's pretty amazing. Like a lot of people can't make it out over there to the West Coast. Should be able to get a good inside view of exactly what you do on stage. I think they should take some of them off. I was improvting a bit the other night, because there was a Spanish audience. I speak a little Spanish, and I said, "You guys, I've decided I'm not going to, I live in a Spanish neighborhood, like everybody in the audience." And then I said, "I'm not going to, I've decided I'm not going to run anymore from the Jehovah Witnesses. They come out on my screen. I'm still standing my ground. My husband goes in the house. He said they want to deal with it. They were talking to me in Spanish. I said, "Excuse me. No complaint day. Spanish." They kept talking to me. I'm just, I'm sorry. Did you not hear me? I said, and then they keep talking. Finally, I said, "Look, I'm feeling Spanish. Those are the (speaking in foreign language) - Nice. (laughs) - As I see you, that is, this is part of, it's Los Angeles, it's part of, it's part of, it's part of, it's part of, it's part of the needle, okay? No Cuba, no Mexico, no me. (speaking in foreign language) (laughing) - What's going on? (speaking in foreign language) Okay, solo. And you know, it deals, my God. (speaking in foreign language) My God is speaks English. Oh man, my husband came out. He's like, "Come in the house." I'm like, (speaking in foreign language) (laughing) - I'm a friend. (laughing) (speaking in foreign language) - I could use you at my job. I could use you at my job with all the Spanish people that come in here and I, you know, and I'm like the same way. I speak a little bit of Spanish and everything like that, but that would be so killer. (laughing) - Yeah, yeah. And your job, if you could speak Spanish, the key would not to let them, don't let them in on it. Let them speak Spanish around you. And you don't, and they all know you understand. (laughing) - I was actually able to pick up some stuff that they said around me, and they were actually insulting me. And I said to them, I'm like, you know, they don't know the understood those words, but I knew that they were cutting me out. (laughing) - Yeah, and he would tell by the donation and everything as well. - Yeah. - But I love it. They don't know why I can speak. They don't know why I understand. I'm not good at any. Man, so I'm trying to get him to pick up more. All I can understand is like, what's the Spanish word for the N word? (laughing) I know, I know Negro, right? Another, that one. And I'm going to get Spanish word for the B-I-T-T-H word. - Oh, someone called me that word, and I forgot what it is. - Oh. (laughing) Someone called you that. - You're going to have to call me back, and I'm going to have to tell you. (laughing) - 'Cause I'd just be listening for those words. - Yeah, that's all fun. I mean, we're all the same. You know, we're all the same people. You know, black people, Spanish, Mexican, and white people are all screwed up, you know. I believe that. I think that, you know, there's things that white people know and black people know. You know, there's things that Mexican is known, and white people know that black people won't even admit, you know, like, Tupac is dead. Okay, let's do that. - Yeah, yeah. I pretty much came to that realization quick. (laughing) - That's like Elvis is dead. Like, you know, they want to admit that. You know, and like, Mexican won't admit that, you know, chicken is food, not a roommate, you know. You're going to like that. (laughing) - That's so bad. - Chinese cutting food actually uses cat and dog. Oh, sorry. (laughing) - Yeah. Yeah, like, ancient people. Left turn lane to there for a reason. You know, little things. But we have fun. You think it's good for me. You could do it. It's public speaking. Talking about what's in front of you all the time, you know. - That's true. - There's a lot of stuff that can be fun to me about. So, I don't see why I can't make fun of it myself, so. - Right. And you do that, too, when you're out there live with, on the red carpet with the microphone, something happens. You go, okay, bring it here, bring it here, I guess. You have to incorporate it, or it takes over the show. - No. - I have a heckler once. Comedians always deal with hecklers. I mean, sometimes worse than others. There's a lady. I was the headliner of a show. It was in the high desert a couple years ago. She was drunk out of her mind. She had full DMC, the opening act, the feature. And she'd be on heckle me. So, I went up. She was still drunk. She was still heckling. See, hecklers think that they're helping the show. - They're not. - They're not. They're disrupting the show. They're changing the energy. But they're having a good time. They want to be your friend. So, I launched her throughout the show, and I finally said, "Okay." So, she's been talking all night. I pointed over to her, and the audience kind of groaned. And I said, "What's your name?" And I got her name. And I said, "She wants to be a part of the show, you guys. Let's give her a role in this show." And they all, like, raise their eyebrows. What's she going to do? I said, "Okay, what?" What's your name, Monique? Monique, when I pointed you, I want you to do me a favor. And then you want to tell me where you want me to go. - Okay. - Okay. - I want you to stand up, and I want you to open your hand. And then when I go, "And Monique, what do we say to that?" I want you to say, "Bitch, what?" - No. - No, I want you. I want you to, you hit your cheek and turn it into a thing. And she was okay, and she did it. And there's, like, a real baby slap. I said, "No, we want to hear it, really go." You know, like, "Yeah, we want it to, we want it to, we want to hear that, Monique. We want to hear that, Monique. You want to hear that?" - She did. - The audience fell out of the chairs. And I did the show, and I was, she said something, and I said, "Mommy, and what do we say to that?" She stood up and did it one time. And everybody got real quiet, and she got quiet, and she stood there and rubbed her cheek, and sat back down, and then never heard nothing else. You had to say, "I look for her." And she had left already my home. - She ran out. - Yeah. She, like, came in to interrupt, make fun. And I got something I got to do, I got to roll the plane out and like that roll more and more. Yeah, that's probably cool, but in your business, mine and yours, you got to have tools, things you do. How long have you been, you've been doing interviews and public speaking before this podcast, right? - Yes. - You just got skills like that. - I could say it's a gift, but then I'd be lying. - Well, you know how you say, "It's scary for a comedian." Any kind of public speaking is, because you can't control the other person or the audience, what they're going to say and do. - No, it's true. You have no idea what's going to come out of the other person's mouth, especially when you're not seeing a face-to-face. Then you have no idea. You've got to work with that. And that's what honesty is the best. You just say, "Hey, I'm sorry, that didn't work." You know, I thought it was good in the shower, but everybody was good tonight. You just have to clean it up. I've got some good shows, especially overseas where the Brits are just so just mental of you. They don't get the references that you normally talk about. I do a thing about being black out here in LA. Look at me. I'm not really that dark, and I'm not really light. I'm kind of a color in the middle. I'm a shade. I'm a COCO 582-1. - Yeah. - And then I followed up with, I think I'm actually a hostible. That's my nationality. I'm a hostible. - I like that one. - I like it too. I went to a ticket to London. They're like, they're looking at each other. Like, "Oh, what exactly is a hostible? I don't understand what that is." I'm like, "You guys don't know a girl called me out here? Are you insane?" - That's me. - God. No, yeah. You don't know that. - See, that just makes me sad. - That does. That makes me sad. - Yeah. Yeah. And because they don't get the American... What they know of Americans is what they see on TV, but not all TV that they see. They see... Anytime I did a Laquita kind of ethnic inner city character, oh, they loved it. I used to do a bit. What's that? What's that? My name is Laquita and whatever. Welcome to the black shopping network. - Laquita. - Laquita. - Laquita. We got a lot of products. Yeah, I mean, the average, you know, and they love that all again. I don't look at it. You said it. There are still types. They love it over there. I love traveling. Do you travel? Do you yourself a chance? Just back and forth between L.A. to Jersey. I live in Jersey. I travel from over here to Alaska. That's pretty much the furthest I've been, sometimes Florida. I would love to travel over to Italy. I love to do that. That causes me to basically save money. I'm going to work on it. We're going to work on it. Get me over there. If you go over there for a bus or the radio, then it's a write-off. I'm going over here to get stories, man, and interview people in Italy about what they think about Obama. I'm probably like, "Who's Obama?" Yes, exactly. And you could tell them your worst nightmare. That's who he is. See, I want to go over there. They put this article out there about put-pocketers, which is the opposite of a pick-pocketer, where they actually put money in your wallet, because they said they know how bad the recession is over here. They've been actually putting like 30, 40 bucks in American tours with pockets. That's funny. These are from reformed and these are from reformed pick-pocketers that are doing it. We formed. It's kind of a public community service. That's pretty good. They have to do that time instead of sitting on bars. They have to do that to communities. So the former pick-pocketers do that. This article came out? That's crazy. What are they trying to do? I'm living in the wrong country. They need to come over here and do that over here. That's what they need to do. Do that over here. You might feel freaked out if you felt someone digging in your pocket. If I guess it is quick enough, you wouldn't know what's going on to put money in the pocket. Is there some money? What else could they put in the pocket and then say, "Hey, that guy has the drugs right there." Planting you. That's just good. Wouldn't that be a wonderful thing if people gave other people money just because that's just... So that love exists. From your lips, the God's ears. Do we always need some major tragic events to bring up together? That's the shame, isn't it? Because that's what happens on 9/11. I always think about that too. That event brought us all together and now we're separated and segregated again. Yeah, it's gone back. I think interestingly enough in the last five years, I think the only thing that wasn't tragic, that did bring people uniformly together, it was the Obama administration. It was the Obama election, I think. People generally agreed. They've had enough Bush. They've had enough Bush. It wasn't that he couldn't be ran, but they didn't want anyone to look like them, sound like them or believe like a clean office. Yeah. And we had all decided it's time for black president. I think that it was all kind of celebrities and public interest groups and the all kind of news agencies and even David Allen Greer put together a temporary, you know, chocolate news, a sick talk show, a sketch show about the concept of Obama being in office. And there's rumors about it that it didn't take up a second season because it did its job. It was just there to raise the consciousness. Never know. I hope, hopefully, because everybody at the end of Obama has to do something, but I'm like, hopefully, you know, we'll definitely be able to live on. Live on with him as our president. You know what I mean? Definitely. I mean, I went to the inauguration. Did you go? I did not go. I actually had to work that day. I wanted to take off, but I actually had to get called into work because we were short. And, you know, I definitely, I did want to go. But that was a historical moment to be a part of. Oh, yeah. I think if you didn't go, you were probably the only black person not there. [ Laughter ] There were five million or so black, not five, just a lot of black people were there. And the crime rate went down all over the country that day. It was just no crime. I'm just joking around. Actually, it was so freezing, too. They weren't -- people weren't even black. They were blue. It was just amazing. I believe that, too. I believe that, too. But I mean, I do wish I was there. You know, the loves have been part of history making. And I would have loved to have attended something like that. Oprah was there. Guess he was there. Byron Allen. Opie. Opie was there. Opie and Floyd and the barber shop. [ Laughter ] It was amazing. But, you know, his re and his new inauguration will be amazing, too. And four years, so let's do that. Absolutely. I'll definitely take off ahead of time, I think. I'll do that instead. You'll call me in because I won't be home. [ Laughter ] How that's going to work. That's how that's going to work. Yeah. If you start now, you could probably start the process of a paper work in a red tape to get a press pass. It's incredibly difficult to get a press pass to get up on the podium and go, Obama, how does it feel to be who you are? I don't think I would -- I don't even think I would do a press pass. I think I would just stand right there in the crowd. You know, it's even bad. It's even doing that. That would definitely be it for me, you know? I won't even worry about all that going through all that process. I would just go right there and stand in the crowd with everybody else and just watch that go on right in front of me. I think that would be amazing. You know, I was going to -- I was going to be your -- I was going to be a newscaster like you, or TV personality type. I was going to do that. What changed your mind? Well, got my degree, communication, journalism. Worked at radio stations. Worked at TV stations. I was out -- what changed my mind was I was working at radio station at the time that Lucille Ball was at Sea to Sinai. She was on her death bed. She's one of my, you know, idols along with Carol Burnett. You know, Richard Pryor just -- I had so many idols. And Lucille Ball was a main one for me. And my job was to get the wire down off of the recording. The radio -- in those days, it was -- they sent recordings over -- it wasn't the Internet, but it was -- we had to listen to. It was a tape that came across. I had to splice it together and plug it into a story, forget. And anyway, she was on her death bed, and they sent over the story. That I spliced together and gave it to the editor. And the story was about her life, her past, what she brought to our lives, how she enriched all of us. And I gave it to the editor and said, "Excuse me, I think this is the wrong story, but this is the 5th, this team." He goes, "What's the -- what's the thing?" I said, "Oh, it's the story about her life, about who she was and everything." And she still -- she's still here with us. She's -- she's in the hospital, but she's still with us. And the editor just kind of looked at me, really kind of matter of fact like, "Oh, she's going to be dead in a minute. We're just going to be the first one with it on the air." So, yeah, that's the right story. My mouth -- my mouth just dropped all the way to China. That was -- that was an eye-opener for now. I was like, "Oh, this is what it's all about." Yeah, it is. It's all about the news and the rating. It wasn't a love there. It changed me. I don't know. I kind of realized that I didn't want to just be in news after that, because it was all about the pain and the hurt and the, you know, kind of death dying. I don't know. Not really, but it's just also about some hardcore stuff like who's still and who and who's in jail for this crime and whatever. I mean, you get people's face and you go, "How does he feel that you just been been over by a truck? How does that feel for you?" And then I don't want to run a -- "What are you saying? What do you mean, how does it feel?" Yeah, you always see these movies where these reporters are on the White House steps. Everybody rushing up to the same person, sticking their mics on their face. And I don't know. I just pulled back and got into a personality set. It was a show with Fox on top. I got into, you know, more of a personality type of reporting and stuff. And then all that evolved into comedy. Go ahead. Here I am. How about you? I mean, you started in journalism? I did not, actually. I guess I could say it's not me. Actually, someone actually said to me, you know, you have a good voice ratio. So, like, I do. You know, like, yeah, I think you should look into maybe, like, doing, like, radio voiceovers and all that stuff. Because right now, I mean, I'm working in pharmaceuticals. And I'm a pharmacy tech right now. I mean, I hate retail. Retail. retail. My girlfriend works pharmaceutical sales. So, she drives around and everything is in her trunk. So, you're in pharmaceuticals behind the counter. Film prescriptions are making them. I don't know. I just, you know, I just, I'm a legal, I call, I'm a legalized pill pusher. So, I basically just kind of build and sell them to the customers when they come in and pick up their meds. Oh, you know, it's a medical marijuana. I'm kidding. I think that's illegal. I was only in the west because I was not over here. You know what? Just find Snoop Dogg. He can get you a live weed. Yeah, his own crop. Yes. So, you, you hate retail. I can't blame you. Let's get the pain. I can't stand retail. And so, I started, you know, I went to school. I started going into school for journalism and everything. And I got an internship at a radio station. And I'm almost done that internship, actually. And it's very interesting, you know, for the ins and outs of everything that you need to do. Add living stuff when you're on it. Or as a disjockey, you know, coming up with your own tags. Coming up with your own this. Coming up with your own that. There's a lot of stuff that went on into it that I had no idea that all this stuff was involved. You know what? I'm loving every minute of it. I love every minute of it. I've not traded in for the world. And, you know, there's more to learn about being in radio. I want to learn it. I don't want to stop doing it because it's a passion for it. You pretty much have to have the passion for wherever it is that you want to do and go for it. Isn't it fantastic to find your muse? It's gold. It is good. And you have, like, a lot of stress, like, alleviated from your body. And you don't have to worry about, "Oh, my God. What am I going to be doing for the rest of my life?" Yeah. Yeah. My mom told me once, she said, "If you have to work the rest of your life, it might as well be something you enjoy." So smart people put together what they enjoy as soon as possible in their life. And then perfected and get it more and more marketable and usable and perfection and professional at it. And start to hopefully make some money from it and tell a few people who tell a few people. And hopefully, you know, you can evolve into just doing that. Exactly. Exactly. Oh, man. You know, I seriously think every day that if I'm not doing this, you know, still a little bit more for this. Like, if this ended, like, tomorrow, then it was still a little bit more for this, you know? Yeah. Yeah. I can't take it for granted because you don't know how long it will be before it ends for you. Wait a minute. Oh, that's good to sense. I was listening, and I didn't hear that last part. Oh. Oh, okay. I just said that, you know, just if it don't take it for granted because you don't know what, whatever is going to end for you. Like, it can end tomorrow, it can end next. We could end right now. You know, and just, I love everything that I've done up until this point. So, like I said, at the end of tomorrow, I would not have any regrets. That, and that, if you can say that, not people cannot say that. If you can say that, that is the most beautiful thing. That, that's your T-shirt. That's your T-shirt. From comics and I have a saying, it's like, okay, dude, of all the things that you know and all the things in the world and all the feelings, what's on your T-shirt, man? That's your, that, that describe- That's my slogan. That is my slogan. Yeah. Exactly. Yes, it's slogan. That's the slogan. Well, yeah. I wrote down something and I think that you, I was like thinking that this, for buzz worthy radio, if you, if this would be awesome for Noveli to do a series of What's Wrong With. And I don't know why I thought of this because we thought of my retail. And it's almost like if you devoted a whole show to, okay, this is Noveli. Uh, this, this episode, this show is all about what's wrong with retail. It's the top 10 list. All right. Call it. Call it now. Let's discuss this. Yeah. And, and then you had a topic for anything like, okay, what's wrong with a smart card? Let's talk about the smart card. Some people want it and some people don't and then moving on down, you know, to everything. All this going green. Let's talk about what's wrong with going green. Oh, yeah. You won't even touch that. Oh, exactly. That's, that's worthy buzz, worthy stuff. You know, it's just, but could you do this so live? Yeah. I mean, you know, you can tease each week. Next week we're going to talk about, we're going to talk about what's wrong with, you know, people that recycle out of your trash can. Let's talk about that. Let's talk about that. Recycling is good, but you've already separated the, the, the trash, right? With the blue and black. Yeah. Yeah, we did. Yeah, we did. So now here comes some stranger who's messing up your, your design. He's taken away your contribution to the, to the, to the dumpsters, you know, for what? Now, what's wrong with that? Well, first of all, that's disgusting. Yeah. Like, what, what do you want to, what do you want to go dig and do my trash for? That's disgusting. Unless you're a hobo. That's still disgusting. Yeah. That's disgusting. As you can see, I've already recycled this stuff. This is my kind of, you're taking away my donation to the, to, to the city in the way that, you know, because there are places, I went up North East Lane to end the shooting independent film with the new red camera. That's going to be the new camera in movie making and video making and stuff or TV. Yeah. It's a new technology. Yeah. And I did that. It was in Portola Valley. It's actually a documentary I shot for the Native Americans that used to, he used to occupy a still a more area there by Fresno. Any, I'm not Fresno, but I'm Monterey. But the point is, from the saying, um, I forgot the point. It was about to be. Oh my God. Was that the point that you forgot the point? Was that the point? That was the point. What happened to us? Am I that young? Okay. I'm going to say it. I'm young. I'm going to guess I'm forever young.
