Transcript

SPEAKER_04 0:43

Hey Magic Makers, I'm Momby Rilla. I'm Gigi Jones. And I'm CG Peterson.

SPEAKER_03 0:49

Welcome to Magic Making Mischief. Get your wands to the ready. Because we solemnly swear we're up to no good. And speaking of up to no good, today we have with us comedian Thomas May.

SPEAKER_00 1:04

Hello, hello, hello. How you guys doing? How you ladies doing? How you ladies doing?

SPEAKER_02 1:07

Hello, Dearie.

SPEAKER_03 1:09

Welcome, sir. Welcome to Magic Making Mischief.

SPEAKER_00 1:13

Thank you. Thank you. I'm excited to be here. I'm so excited to talk a nerd out with you.

SPEAKER_03 1:19

We have lots of magic shit. And we learned something in the very beginning before we even got on that he is a fellow Ravenclaw. I'm so excited for the one joining again.

SPEAKER_00 1:29

It makes complete sense, CJ. We were both words, so it makes complete sense. It takes high intelligence to be a Ravenclaw.

SPEAKER_03 1:38

Gotta love it. He is a comedian, and uh we're gonna be learning about his journey today. But Juju, where did you meet him?

SPEAKER_02 1:46

We met at Kim Kawaii shortly after his set. I was running around in the halls doing my Juju thing, and I ran into two fellas that were just having a ball, and they saw me in my Star Wars garb and was like, Can we take pictures with you? I was like, uh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 2:09

By the way, I was the one with purple lightsaber.

SPEAKER_00 2:11

Oh, nice.

SPEAKER_04 2:19

She was our uh cosplay group inspiration for this one.

SPEAKER_00 2:24

That's awesome. That's awesome. It was I was also real cool to uh meet her there. That was a fun festival. It was my first time performing at a festival like that, and uh it was uh because I'm working on my as you get uh farther in your comedy career, you start getting farther into your branding. I've been working on doing more clean comedy, so it was awesome doing that set. I had to I had the time of my life. It's probably one of the best sets I did, and I had to be very clean. I had a great time making everyone laugh. It was it was real fun.

SPEAKER_04 2:55

I love I love Kema Kwai, it is like one of my favorite cons because it is a very family-friendly one, and I know a lot of anime cons. I just recently saw one coming to Houston. I was like, that is not one that I could take my kids with me to into that. So I love having that. That's uh when I started my channel, like that was one of my things is I wanted stuff that I could take my kids to, or I could have my kids around while I was looking at it and not feel embarrassed, like you need to get out of the room, hurry, get out of the room. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 3:24

Well, let's let's like jump back and take a look at your journey because I can't imagine that it started there. Um, you might have had, I understand you had quite a journey getting to where you are. Would you mind sharing that with us?

SPEAKER_00 3:39

Oh, yes, ma'am. So I grew up, um, I graduated from high school out here in Houston, Texas, and I joined the Navy at 18. Um, I was technically I was pretty much homeless at that point. Um a lot of it, I was kind of a knucklehead as a kid, so I had to I had to be, I I thought I was a young man, so I stepped out on my own. Um then I joined the military because I realized um Houston's a very big city and it's very easy to get in trouble. So um I decided to take that energy into something else. So I joined the Navy. Um in that time I got to join the um, I became a gunner's mate, and I became a torpedo tech, and I was able to deploy to 24 countries. Um wow, that's pretty awesome.

SPEAKER_02 4:31

Thank you so much.

SPEAKER_00 4:32

Oh, thank you. Thank you. Um, thank you. Say again. Um, so in the Navy I did four years, and then I did five years in the Army Reserves. Oh wow. Yes, wow. Um, I I got the Navy was rough and I was like, man, this is hard. So I went to the Army. I was like, how much worse can it get?

SPEAKER_02 4:52

So careful what you wish for.

SPEAKER_04 4:56

Right.

SPEAKER_00 4:58

Um, I can say I'm appreciative of it. Um I lived in I've I've lived in California the last 15 years. Um, I've done everything from because of my being in the military, you get lots of different opportunities. Like I uh like CJ, you were saying you worked Comic Con. Well, I got to work in San Diego's Comic Con. Um doing that. I did some crazy stuff. It was uh I could I got to work the I like I could work a um exclusive party for Black Panther, so I got to meet the full cast of Black Panther when they did the first parties. Yes, that was pretty cool. I met Chadwick Bozeman right before he uh and it was in 17 before he passed away.

SPEAKER_01 5:42

So it was wow, I was shocked by how short he was.

SPEAKER_00 5:46

That was what really shocked me. Hollywood's so short, everybody they they shocked me how short they are.

SPEAKER_03 5:54

Um that's pretty cool though. He seems like he seems like he would have been a really nice guy, though.

SPEAKER_00 6:01

Yes, he was really nice. I had uh um, he needed me to escort. I was just working security for the venue in that particular event. Um, so I would just escort different people. Like I had to escort Will I am to the restroom. I escorted Chad Chad with Bozeman, like a few other people, and like I even got to meet uh Angela Bassett, like it was it, yeah, Angela Bassett. I got to meet a few people. It was really cool. It was awesome.

SPEAKER_02 6:26

It's a legend right there.

SPEAKER_00 6:28

Yes, I she it's like she doesn't age. I I think she's a vampire.

SPEAKER_02 6:33

An angel's vampire. I believe it.

SPEAKER_00 6:36

That's just a joke. That's just a joke for legal purposes.

SPEAKER_04 6:43

Just be careful who you invite into your house, you know. That was wonderful meeting you. May I come in?

SPEAKER_00 6:50

Uh garlic jock or garlic can be all the time.

SPEAKER_03 7:00

And then um, that's so cool.

SPEAKER_00 7:02

And then um, what else? Um I worked um thanks to the Navy, like I got to see like different things like um in Asia. I didn't realize how how large America, everything in America is. So when you go to different countries like um like Cambodia, you're shocked to see people who are living in like 10 huts and it's 120 degrees and the humidity is like Houston, and it's just I'm like, how are they surviving? So you learn to become very grateful. Um, I definitely shaped up, I can say I I came in as a young boy and came out of the military as a man, I can um thankfully for my because of my experiences. So I'm grateful for joining and certain. And um with, I guess the whole stage of me getting into comedy, so the whole time I was in the military, anytime I would deploy or be in training or anything, I've always been the type of person who just listened to stand-up comedy. My mom um was a radio DJ, so she's more so my inspiration for getting into comedy originally. Um, I watched her do radio, she was a radio DJ and a stand-up comedian, and she used to take me to different open mics and different shows that she did and everything. So I've watched my mom host, I've seen her perform in front of Arena, 30,000 people. I've seen her do all of it to like just 20 people in a room. I've seen her do it. It was cool to see that stuff. And I just kind of I don't know, the day I stepped on stage, it was the one of my roughest days in life. I was having a very rough time uh mentally. I I wasn't sleeping, I wasn't eating. Um, my marriage at the time was falling apart, and I I just couldn't figure it out. I was doing everything I could to make money and everything, and I was just depressed. And I'm sitting in my car, um getting ready to um to hurt myself. And I had a friend who was a comedian who kept calling me and calling me and calling me, and I finally answered his phone. He's like, bro, I told you I got open mic. I just met this guy a week ago doing lift. So it was, it was, it made no sense. It was a it was a blessing that I met.

SPEAKER_02 9:19

It was your guardian angel.

SPEAKER_00 9:21

Absolutely. And I I finally go up there and I do two minutes and 30 seconds, and I hear some people laugh at some silly joke about being married, and I don't even remember what it was. It was a bad job, it was horrible. It wasn't a good joke at all. Like I compared to how I tell jokes now, it wasn't a good joke. But there was only three people in that crowd, and they were all comedians, but they laughed, and I felt a piece I'd never felt in my life. Um, it was the last time I felt that comfortable and like I belonged, was when I was been when I first joined the military, when I first graduated boot camp. That was the first time I had ever accomplished something in my life, and I said I would do it. So um, I don't I don't know how to explain it. Every time I step on stage, it's like I'm on, I'm I'm just at a peace zone. Like I, you know, in Harry Potter, they he talks about the uh um Felix's uh potion for uh the good love potion. That's how I feel when I'm on stage. It's just I just have fun, say it, make people make them laugh, and it's the funnest time in my life.

SPEAKER_03 10:29

Sometimes like my family, we deal with stuff with laughter. Is that what your family does sometimes? Because it sounds sounds like your mom was a stand-up comedian. That sounds like that's how your family.

SPEAKER_00 10:40

My mom, my dad, they made me laugh harder than I've ever laughed my whole life growing up. And childhood was rough, life was rough, so you know. Um, I watched both my parents grow from completely broke because they had me as teens, to owning their own houses, each individually. So I I I got to watch them grow up. I watched them grow up as adults and from children. So, and that there's a lot of mistakes are made. It's not something to be upset about, it's something to accept and understand and make sure I don't make those same mistakes with my two sons. So I appreciate that both my parents put me in therapy. Um, that also helped too. Um my therapist told me at a long uh at a very young age, I like to laugh. They're like, You're a very funny kid. Why don't you try to push towards that? I like to lie a lot when I was a kid.

SPEAKER_02 11:32

So thinking the stories.

SPEAKER_00 11:36

It was I I just love telling stories. I was a very imaginative kid. That kind of was lying when you're just trying to be funny, and they're like, no, I was trying to just nope, what is wrong with you? Okay, stop now. I'm getting this thinking. So um childhood was it was one of those things where I I got um I got a lot of really amazing experiences. I had some rough experiences, but it prepared me for everything I went into in the military. Um one thing that people don't ever talk about is how lonely it is when you're in there. Because you're surrounded by so many people all the time, but you're just lonely. You can't hug, you can't hug your battle buddy be like, hey bro, can you cuddle me like mom like they're like bro? If you don't get away from me, like it it unless you're a marine, then it's just the cut man. I'm sorry. You know what?

SPEAKER_02 12:45

I see that everywhere. My dad is the same way. Um, I was literally just in the hospital with him the other day, and he had a a hospital buddy there, they're at the VA hospital, and they're cutting it. Um, that guy was uh uh Navy guy, and my dad is an army guy, and they were giving each other so much heck. Oh my god, it was it's like it was hilarious.

SPEAKER_00 13:08

Oh yeah, it's a dysfunctional brotherhood. I love it. Anytime I run into a vet, it's really cool when I'm on stage and I'll do my set because I talk about PTSD and some and depression and things on stage, and um, it's cool when vets talk to me about that and they tell me thank you talking for talking about that, or yo man, you made me laugh extra hard. Or when my friends from the military hit me up on Instagram or Facebook and tell me you're hilarious, man. Or you're always funny, we're happy you're telling jokes. It lets me, it's it's like a constant affirmation that I'm on the right path.

SPEAKER_03 13:44

Well, it's probably a good release, too.

SPEAKER_00 13:47

Yes, absolutely, absolutely. It's uh it's the funnest relief in the world. I can't uh I can't describe it.

SPEAKER_03 13:54

Uh like as you're going, even as you were probably going through it when you were doing your your time, you're piloting around, finding things to kind of laugh at. Like, are you serious right now?

SPEAKER_00 14:08

Oh, yes, that was always fun. Like, um, we just had a in the military, we're we're known for our sick sense of humor, so we we can't tell jokes at like family parties. Like um all my exes, right before we go to family parties, they would sit me in the corner like okay, listen, Thomas, you can't talk about this and this. Well, well, why why am I even coming then?

SPEAKER_04 14:33

Like I'm enough, it's just gonna be in the corner.

SPEAKER_00 14:38

Uh you it's always funny too, because whenever you go to a family gathering or a party, you always can see the other vet because we're always standing in the corner with our backs to a wall, with a drink, and probably just looking like we're miserable, and then we'll see each other, and then we kind of like mosey over to each other and we start talking, it's like we forget the whole world exists.

SPEAKER_02 14:59

We just start talking about military stuff for the next six hours, and then our family's like, Oh, here they go, like that slow man scene where they're like, dude, do do do do three magnets, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 15:22

It's even cooler too because I meet a lot of veteran comedians, so it's even cooler seeing um we all kind of attack comedy with the same vigor that I do, like we just absolutely love it. It's everything, it's something we obsess over since we got out of the military. That was our obsession. And now we're doing comedy, and a lot of those comedians that I knew that are vets, they're reaching new heights. We all started at the same time. I'm reaching new heights myself. I got to audition for Wild and Out uh three weeks ago in New York. Um, that was that was a blessing. Uh I didn't make it, but I'm I'm still in the process. They told me I'll be going to an I I'll get a call back.

SPEAKER_03 16:04

So I gotta some appearances coming up.

SPEAKER_00 16:09

Oh, yes, ma'am. So I'll be doing a performance with Bradley Smith, uh a roast. I'm not sure the exact location yet. I know it's here in Houston. Um, or here in Spring, Texas. And um I have a friend Jesse Payton. He's going to be getting uh he's going to be shooting his special on the 17th at uh Moose and Goose uh Bar. Uh he'll be doing his comedy special. And uh I also I said the 24th. Yes, ma'am. That's all. That's all of it. Oh, I'll be also um potentially shooting my comedy special in um Dallas or San Diego uh at Mike Drop Comedy Club.

SPEAKER_03 16:53

Okay, so Bradley Smith is the 24th.

SPEAKER_00 16:55

Yes, yes, ma'am.

SPEAKER_03 16:56

Okay, make sure you're gonna go. Combo panda. I love him, he's so cute. Um, so you said there are some parent appearances in Dallas and San Diego we were talking about before.

SPEAKER_00 17:08

Yes, I'm potentially gonna be shooting my uh special out there. Um either in San Diego or uh Dallas. It'll be a 30-minute special. Um, I'll be putting it out on YouTube and also working on um getting on the cruise ships next year.

SPEAKER_01 17:25

Oh yes, awesome.

SPEAKER_00 17:27

Yes, uh you guys will be seeing my face a lot more, so I love your face. Uh you really be blush.

SPEAKER_02 17:38

That's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00 17:39

Yes, ma'am. Thank you, CJ.

SPEAKER_02 17:44

Comments from people.

SPEAKER_04 17:46

Oh, I am so sorry. I am lagging here. Sorry, guys. I'm taking up for uh there was one your heater on her.

SPEAKER_03 17:56

There was just one. There was just one. There's one of us.

SPEAKER_02 18:06

Yeah, it says Hilarious.

SPEAKER_00 18:08

That's a buddy I served with.

SPEAKER_02 18:11

Okay. Thank you for your service as well.

SPEAKER_00 18:16

He's still serving in uh Army Reserves currently.

SPEAKER_03 18:18

Oh heck yeah.

SPEAKER_00 18:20

He just uh think not too long ago, just got back from I uh I think a few years ago, but yeah, he's he's good.

SPEAKER_04 18:34

That's pretty cool. We love our military man, appreciate your service.

SPEAKER_01 18:38

Men and women women.

SPEAKER_04 18:44

Yes, this is true. I do actually I have a a friend at my church who served, and uh, I was like, she she was like, Oh no, I didn't sit at a desk. I went out there and helped out in the field with stuff. I was like, really? I was like, okay, okay, go girl.

SPEAKER_00 18:58

They would sleep in the field right there with us in the dirt, and like we we all have to, like, even just to graduate through basic, you have to sleep in the dirt. Yeah. So it's if you join the military, regardless of whether you're sitting behind a desk or you sit in or you sitting in a trench, it's not an easy lifestyle. There's obviously different levels of painful and and like and hardship between the two, but um the military in general is just not an easy place. It's a bunch of rules, there's rules that don't make sense. Sometimes you get yelled at and you still don't know what you did wrong.

SPEAKER_04 19:42

Hold on, hold on, hold on. Speaking of that, I got uh my husband stopped at a store the other day to get these for our kids so they can track one of one of my favorite Mexican chicken stew.

SPEAKER_00 19:58

Oh yeah, he's gonna be stopped up for weeks.

SPEAKER_03 20:10

Separating the rocks of male, female rocks. You told me that was one of my favorite his favorite punishments. Yes, oh female rocks. Um, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:25

They used I used to like to uh um make people sweep rain. If you sweep rain, that's that's what I was about to say. That's always or sweep the sun off the sidewalk. That was always a good one. Oh, you had to push to China, all kinds of silly stuff.

SPEAKER_01 20:40

You just all sorts of punishments that they had to do.

SPEAKER_00 20:44

The the military will teach you some amazing ways to punish your kids when you become a dad. I can I'm a dad now, so I have two boys. That is not a lie, that is not a lie.

SPEAKER_02 20:56

In my dad's house, we we knew before we were like 11 what addies and attention and all that was and parade rest. And I didn't know why I I was having to do that, except for when you heard daddy's voice and you heard we did those exact things, like we didn't.

SPEAKER_04 21:16

I actually my my uh my dad never served, so I really didn't have anybody close to me who was in the military. So whenever we got married, it was quite the uh culture shock for my brain.

SPEAKER_02 21:27

Oh, I bet. Oh my goodness. I lived like that, so I have no idea what it's like to see it new.

SPEAKER_03 21:34

Rollin's oldest thing, and then there's also um if you're 15 minutes early, you're on time. If you're on time, yes.

SPEAKER_00 21:42

If you're late, you're dead. I had a I had a job interview today, and it was it was raining and thunderstorming this morning in Houston. And I drove through the rain, it was still there 30 minutes early. The guy, the interview, he was like, I'm surprised you got you guys. I was like, uh, I'm probably Military, we don't have we're not allowed excuses.

SPEAKER_04 22:04

It was like uh like Zeus attack this morning, it was crazy lightning and flooding and everything. Houston, Houston's so funny. It's like you never know, it's like one minute you're boiling hot because it's just 110 degrees. The next it's like no no get an arc built, guys. Come on, hurry up, get it waiting.

SPEAKER_00 22:26

You didn't bring one? Oh, you better get ready to slide.

SPEAKER_03 22:29

And there was like sheets of ice on on that road, and I was like one of maybe 10 that actually made it in. Like, I'm surprised you made it, and I'm like, Why would I not make it? And I'm like, and I'm like, Well, you know, everybody called it and I'm like, Well, why aren't we supposed to be here at work? You know, it it's time to work, and they're like, Well, I don't know if you're here, but you're like 10 minutes early. I'm like, Well, I'm supposed to be, that's what's happening here, and they're like, It's the Ravenclaw, yes. And I'm like, that's facts, that's facts. They're like, get your car and go home. Are you sure I'm here? They're like, Go home, and I'm like, Okay, time to work.

SPEAKER_00 23:10

I'm home.

SPEAKER_03 23:13

I'm like, all right, like, don't come in tomorrow. I'm like, okay, you paid me to be here.

SPEAKER_00 23:20

I don't know what you want from me. Why are you so angry? Speaking of which, I wanted to say, CJ, um, I watched y'all's uh show last week. He was talking about um autism. Um, Mr. Herr. I wanted to tell him uh I appreciate what he talks about. Um, my son is on the spectrum. We're working on finding out my youngest son. So uh it's always cool to see people working on that. Um, I did a comedy festival in San Diego this year, uh loudmouth comedy festival with a friend of mine, Sonny Smith. Um, and I got to perform, and it's it was basically a benefit for autism. So I appreciate when people work for stuff like that.

SPEAKER_02 24:04

You should reach out to him. Y'all are both local, I believe.

SPEAKER_00 24:08

I I'll definitely hit him up. Absolutely. I'll uh follow him.

SPEAKER_04 24:12

Oh, we got a comment real quick. Let me see if I can pop this up. Uh Bobo the Rescue, the Redneck Rescue Pop says, How can How do you start comedy?

SPEAKER_00 24:23

How do you start comedy? Fine if depending on what city you're at, look for the local Facebook page that shows open mics, and just start going to open mics. You're gonna start with three to five minutes, and that's all you need. It's gonna take you a while to get that three to five minutes good. Everybody thinks they're great at it in the first six months, they're bad still. I thought I was great, I thought I was the funniest man alive, and then I invited my dad to a comedy show, and my dad's there, my stepmom's there, my little sister's there, and it's it's a packed sold-out show. And I go on stage and I just had to do five minutes, and I couldn't get the people to laugh for three minutes and a half, okay. It was so bad. Some guy in the back was like, get off the stage.

SPEAKER_04 25:15

Oh no, that's rough.

SPEAKER_00 25:16

Oh no, the next comic comes on stage and commences to roast in me for the next five minutes. Oh, you gave him material.

SPEAKER_02 25:24

That's not fair. That's the name of the game, though, when you go before another guy. That's basically right.

SPEAKER_00 25:31

Hey, for six months after that, I couldn't make anybody laugh. For six months, I just couldn't make anyone laugh.

SPEAKER_01 25:37

And oh no, that is not now.

SPEAKER_00 25:40

I can make folks laugh with the other it's almost second nature, so you have to be willing to take that abuse in that it's a growing, it's a growing pattern, it's not a race, it's a marathon, not a sprint.

SPEAKER_02 25:52

Nobody starts out what they like doing perfect. You got you got trial and error all the time every day.

SPEAKER_00 26:00

There's nothing wrong with trying to do a kill Tony set, but you have to be willing to you have to also understand a minute of comedy for a lot of people, they don't understand how much that takes, how much writing that takes. A joke, there's jokes that Juju saw me perform that I was performing that took me almost six years to perfect. And when I started that joke, it was a totally different joke. I wrote it one way, and it's nothing like the way it is now, seven years later. You you're gonna grow because you have to learn who you are. It's like being an author CJ. I would I would like to liken it to being an Arthur CJ, like it's your voice. Once you find your voice, it's almost like it's it flows out of you. That writer's block falls away, but so many young comics, they're so busy trying to get rich or get the viral pick or the viral shot that it goes nowhere for you when you do that. Because you can go and make someone laugh once, but can you consistently do that every single week? Can you do that in a room full of three people and a room full of 4,000 people at the same time and keep the same energy as if it was the same? I had to do shows where I told jokes to a drunk guy who I don't think he knew I existed.

SPEAKER_04 27:19

I can see that like as as you're in different environments too, like the different audience would be a different approach every time. So it's it's kind of constantly shifting. That would be yeah, something I hadn't thought of before.

SPEAKER_00 27:31

Yeah, you have to be willing to always adapt.

SPEAKER_03 27:34

You have your own style and your own voice, so absolutely kind of like Matt Rife. He has he can be different to every audience, but he has his own style and his own voice each time. It's his voice, it's his he's still him, no matter what the audience is. That's why I figure you're the same way. It's still your voice, it's still your style, it's still you, no matter what the audience is. It's kind of like my books, it's still me, no matter what genre I'm writing in. It's still me.

SPEAKER_00 28:02

Absolutely. One of the things I did to figure out my voice was I started. Well, I had to tell my friends this, but I was like, hey, I'm gonna start recording our conversations. Like, what? It's not nothing. I just whenever I start making us laugh, I want to hear what I sound like. Um, that's a good thing. Because that's me and my natural element, just having fun. It's uh it's a way to just listen to yourself having fun and laughing with your friends, and you realize how natural you are, and then you replicate that on stage, it's almost like it's night in bed, it's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 28:39

That's brilliant. That's that's probably how like songwriters figure out you know their their strength in writing their songs. That's actually brilliant.

SPEAKER_04 28:46

That is a really great idea. I've never heard of doing that with comedy specifically or something like that.

SPEAKER_02 28:50

That makes perfect sense though, because how can you actually go back and think about all the funny things you said? Some of it you're gonna miss.

SPEAKER_04 28:57

Like my uh I always said uh my sister and me dealt with trauma through comedy, and we could have my mom rolling, you know, growing up, but like I don't think I could perform that on a stage in front of a group of people and get them to laugh the same way as that situation. So, like actually having a copy of that so you could review and be like, okay, well, what made this funny is actually really smart. I've never, yeah, I never would have thought about it like that. That's awesome. I love that.
