B
All.
C
I'm sorry. No, all good.
A
I love it, man.
C
Okay. Yeah. So I'm from Kansas City, Missouri.
B
Goddamn pro, dude.
C
I know, right? It's like, right? When you just, like, the weather change has been a lot like this. From Atlanta, from la, from.
B
Oh, yeah. It catches up to you, all the flights and stuff like that. It kills you.
C
Yeah. That's the sorry part about everything. I just wish you can teleport.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
Airplane ain't good for you either.
B
That's.
A
That air ain't no good.
C
It's not?
A
No. That's terrible.
C
I didn't know that a bus ain't either. Because then your back.
B
You shouldn't be on a bus anymore. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know who's booking your travel, but you should not be on a bus.
A
Yeah, I would fucking Greyhound in Michigan.
B
Right?
C
Okay. So, yeah, I'm from Kansas City, Missouri. And then it was different because Kansas City is. Once I realized that's all I seen.
A
Are you in the city or you in the burbs?
C
In the city. In the city, yeah. Yeah, in the cities. And it's in the city. And the funny part is I never traveled before. So when I moved to Atlanta and I seen so many, like, black people have different jobs, I'm like, this is different. Because Kansas City.
B
What did they all do in Kansas City?
C
It was hard. It's hard to get jobs because it's more of a white state where, like, I seen more white people with, like, jobs at the airport, at, you know, like, big restaurants. All we had was warehouse jobs, so.
A
Gotcha.
C
I'm just thinking, like, oh, damn. Like, that's normal. And then I go to Atlanta, I see, like, folks are everywhere.
B
Yeah, exactly.
C
And then I'm like. I was happy. Cause I'm like, oh, you can do this. And I just feel like sometimes if you are in a certain state, you can just move. If it's something that you just, like, want to see more in life, you can move. But I feel like some people just don't take that jump to just go. But it's the best thing in life just to find out new shit.
A
How old were you when you moved to Atlanta?
C
I think I was. I think I was, like, 20, 21.
A
All right, so this is when you got out of the House?
C
Yeah, out of the house.
A
And what was the house like?
B
Did you grow up?
A
Did you guys grow up in an apartment?
C
Did you grow up? Yeah, we had an apartment. Four brothers and sisters. And then how many rooms in the apartment? Ooh, three.
A
Three.
C
So my mama had one room and then we, my sister had one room and then the brothers we like share. We all like share.
A
Three of you?
C
Yeah.
B
Bunk beds.
C
Yeah, bunk beds.
A
What's the age difference?
C
Well, my brother is, he's. I'm the middle one, so I'm not really. You know what's crazy? I'm not really good with numbers. So I don't know if y' all met people like that. I don't know nobody age.
A
You don't know how old your brothers are?
C
No, I don't.
B
Were you in school at the same time with them or were they like old?
C
Yeah, so like they're not too much.
A
Like you weren't sharing a room with like a 45 year old man?
C
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't know. But I out there in the world that like me, I. I really. Numbers stress me out, so I really don't like to think about them like dates, like time and all that. I just like to just go with what's in front of me now.
A
So how old are you?
C
32. I'll be forgetting my too.
B
I do that too. I forget because it's just like not in. You reach a certain age where your age isn't important. You're like, how old are you?
C
Like 18 and 21. Those are the most important age.
B
Hey, I'm right there.
C
Because who gives a fuck? Like at 25, what's so special? Nothing changes.
A
And what did your mom do?
C
My mom.
A
She worked at the airport.
C
So my mom. So like one thing about some, some of us in our culture, it. I feel like it get passed down. So my grandma, so my mama. Mama never had a job. So she your grandmother? Yeah, she was counting on a government assistance. Gotcha with that. When you get government assistance, you get like, you know, your rent is cheap, you get food stamps, you get this, get this special treatment. So you feel like that's okay, you know, for you, which is okay for certain people, but. And then that get passed. My mama seen that. So my mama started doing that. So my mama never had a job because of her mama. And so that's just kind of how some of the generations sometimes start off.
A
When you see I got you.
C
Yeah. So. And then I just want it different because I know it's okay to use that, you know, But I feel like sometimes let it be a stepping stone, like, to get you out of it. Cause it's people that really need it. If you stay in the system so long. What about people that need to come in? It should be running for office.
A
I liked it.
C
Yeah. So I feel like, you know, was.
A
Your grandmother close to you? Was she in the same neighborhood?
C
Yeah, so we. We all was in this one. In this one neighborhood. Cause it was the section 8 hood where they gave everybody, like, come here. You get you a place, you get a place. So my whole family lived in this whole. Where we grew up. And then when I had my first child, my.
A
How old were you?
C
I was probably in my twenties. I can't remember. So when I had my first child.
A
How old are your kids? 35.
C
Yeah, look, okay, so my oldest daughter is 12. And I just had. I say, my celebrity babies, because I had them when I was a celebrity.
A
Okay.
C
Two and one. So I just had two of them. Back to back. Two of them.
B
Congratulations.
C
Yeah.
A
How old were you when it all popped? Like when you started? Wow, 25. Would that make sense?
C
25.
A
Numbers question.
B
I know. Jesus Christ.
C
Like 24. Like, 24.
A
Okay.
B
And then were you a good student in school?
C
I was good. I was good to other people, but not myself, if that makes sense. I just wouldn't know. I wouldn't have nobody else way. But I did bad shit that only I wanted to do, but I didn't.
B
You weren't like a bad kid. You were just kind of screwing up.
C
I wasn't. Like, I went to sleep, like, at school. Cause I wanted to go to school like, and go to sleep. I did shit that would make me hurt instead of being bad to other people. Like, damn, he bad. Like attacking people, trying to fight people.
A
You weren't disruptive in class.
C
Yeah, yeah, but I did my shit to where it hurt me.
A
Just not a good student. Yeah, great.
C
I said to me, like, but I.
B
Was a good student.
C
I wasn't. Like, I wasn't effective. Like, I wasn't attacking other people. You got people that's really bad. And they taking it out on everybody. Like, you know, like, bullies usually start off with how they get treated at home and they. And do it to everybody else. And that's a bad student to me. Like, me, I'm just a person that I had to deal with my own bad. I don't know what to call that.
A
I got you.
C
Yeah.
A
I'm not a good student is what they call that.
C
Yeah.
A
I wasn't beating anybody up, but I wasn't passing any tests.
C
Right, Right, that.
A
Did you take the sats?
B
Probably not.
C
I did. I fell asleep, I guess. So I got adhd.
A
Yeah.
C
So to this day, I just. I really wish my mama had got me help. Cause I got ADHD real bad. And I got a deal with dyslexia. And it's hard for me to focus in school. So once, like, my brain has to focus on something, it just shuts down. It's like a computer.
A
And you didn't know this in school?
C
I didn't. I start to realize it as I get older. Like, damn, that's what I'm dealing with.
A
Nice. And you went and got diagnosed with all that stuff later in life.
C
I just went to see a psychiatrist, and then they told. I went to take a test and I fell asleep and they said I needed.
B
They said a test for the psychiatrist.
C
God damn. And they said, you need to go see somebody else. And I just ain't went back yet. I gotta get that done now.
A
Gotcha. Gotcha. Yeah. There's no. I mean, I had that. I had ADHD all my life. And I didn't find that because we were talking about contacts before. I didn't find out that I was nearsighted until, like, seventh grade.
C
Oh, wow.
A
And I was like. I couldn't see anything. Me either. Yeah. So it's like, how the Am I gonna. How am I. Campus doesn't kid. See the chalkboard?
C
No, I couldn't. So it didn't matter what you think.
B
Yeah. The glasses didn't change the grades.
A
Any sports growing up?
C
Yeah. No. I wish I could play sports. Usually people that are funny can't play sports.
B
I agree with it.
A
Yeah.
C
If you got sense of humor, you just can't play sports. And that's why you talking shit about.
B
People trying to be funny. You gotta develop a skill somehow.
C
Yeah, I didn't.
A
Yeah.
C
I wish I could, but I love watching it, like. So I became a Kansas City Chiefs fan around the time Priest Holmes was around.
B
Okay.
C
And Dante Hall. So I was a Chiefs fan. And I watched that. And then we didn't have a basketball team, so I was a Sun fan. I used to love Steve Nash and watch basketball and video games. Video games is my thing. I play a lot of games.
A
Gotcha. Were there any vacations growing up? Would you guys go away?
C
No, we had no money to. I think you listened to me. Hell, no. You had no vacation? No. Only vacations. Well. Oh, you know what? I went To. I went to St. Louis one time, and my uncle.
B
That's not a great vacation.
C
My uncle. It's my grandma. My grandma's son. It was my uncle, and his name was Uncle Winky. So at the time, I didn't know my uncle was. Something about my uncle was different. And then I had a teacher named Mr. Dean, and Mr. Dean, at the end of this. This was in elementary School, and Mr. Dean. Elementary, was it? Yeah, I think so. Or Middle School. Mr. Dean was like, I see you over the summer. And I'm like, how? And when we went on this trip, Mr. Dean was with my uncle. Uncle Winky. And I'm like, what is he doing here? He was in front seat. He told y' all I'd see you. And that's when I found out my uncle was gay. And my teacher.
A
This teacher was a teacher in Kansas City.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
And then. But he somehow was in a relationship with your uncle who lived in St. Louis?
C
No, no, no. We went to St. Louis.
B
They went to St. Louis. He went with Uncle Winky and Mr. Dean.
A
Oh, I gotcha. Yeah, that was a nice trip.
C
Yeah, it was. It was different. We went to St. Louis, and we went to Six Flags, and we went to a lot of places. Yeah. Yeah.
A
All right.
B
That's a pretty good vacation. Yeah.
A
So Uncle Wy was our. What did Uncle Winky do?
C
He was a mailman.
A
Okay, he's a mailman.
C
Yeah.
A
There you go.
B
Yeah, that's a. That's a big question. Did you grow up with any aunts or uncles where you didn't use their real name, like Uncle Winky? Did you have any others?
C
Yeah, we are. Yeah, I got.
B
It started and stopped.
A
Uncle Winky, I think the least hit us.
C
Yeah. The family, we never really. We all had nicknames. Everybody had nicknames. Like me. Like, they call me vine because my name is Javon. That's my middle name. So that's what I know.
B
That's a pretty good one.
C
Yeah. So. And then Mama's Mama. And, you know, everybody had nicknames. Is this. Is that in, like, what's your culture?
B
We're dirt bags from. From outside of Philly, but we're Irish.
A
So, like, we're both Asian. No, we're.
C
Yeah.
A
Irish Catholic.
B
Any. Yeah, any. You know, middle class to lower class.
C
Do y' all use middle names in that? Was it important?
B
Not middle name. A lot of nicknames.
C
Nicknames. That's what I said. Nicknames.
A
Uncle Jojo, stuff like that also.
C
Okay. So that's normal. Okay. I didn't know.
B
I think it's. It's normal. Normal. I don't think the Kennedys are doing it. It's more like lower class type people are doing.
A
Yeah, see the Kennedys doing it, though. You know, Uncle Boo Boo or something.
C
Yeah, the Kim Kardashian families. You think they.
B
I don't. I don't think. I don't think Kim Kardashian has an Uncle Winky.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
That's all right. What was your first job?
C
My first. I had a lot of jobs. I probably had over 80 jobs in life.
B
No shit?
C
Yeah.
A
What was the first one? And how old were you?
C
My first job was Popeyes. I don't remember the age. But how.
B
Pretty good first job.
C
I used to get a lot of jobs and I quit them. If I wasn't happy, I'll quit them. But I used to get on. It was on Craigslist and I used to get jobs on Craigslist. And then. And from there I used to do a lot of temp service jobs. So I quit a lot. I'd been everything in life, you know.
B
What was your least favorite? Like, that was absolutely. I would never do that again.
C
I worked for the water department and that was pipeline, where you used to go down and dig up once the streets are cracked, you know, when they got it off and cut the pipeline and lift it up and do a new pipe.
A
Did you go in the manholes?
C
Yeah. Manholes. Yeah, I was down there. Yeah, I was down there. That was my last job before I became who I was. I was down there. I was making.
B
You were doing it in Atlanta?
C
No, Kansas City.
B
Kansas City.
A
How scary was it going down the manholes?
C
It was a lot. We had a ladder, especially when they start to rain and mud come down. And then we was in snow. I'm from Kansas City, so it snows sometimes. And one time it was snowing so bad and I had to do a line and I had to hurry up and cut and put a. I forgot what it's called. Copper. Like copper right in there. And it missed and it shot up and it's freezing and the hole filled up with water and I, like peed on myself, like instantly. It's like snowing, it's cold and I'm.
B
Down your body, trying to keep you alive. Dude.
C
My team on top got mad. Cause they was like, now they gotta pull. They gotta go drop the thing in there to flush the water out. So they had to get out the truck and.
A
But you could have drowned and got swept away.
C
Yeah. Yeah. Nah, I wouldn't Got swept away. I would've been in that hole. Just fucked up. I was down there.
A
Like, was there rats and stuff like that down there?
C
I ain't never seen rats. I ain't never seen rats.
B
Really?
C
Yeah.
A
It's just a lot what's down there. Is it like a pretty big hole?
C
If you can pull it up, it's like pipelines. If y' all can look on YouTube, it's like. If you look at main breaks on YouTube, it's like it's something going wrong. And then. Oh, sometime with that.
A
With the water main breaks.
C
Yeah, yeah, the water main brakes. That's what it was in the middle. Like it was some where you. If they had that forklift.
B
Yeah, like that probably.
C
Yeah. If you see. Yeah, that was the up and the hole.
B
There he is funny. Marco, look.
C
Yeah, that's where it's resting.
A
You would be in something like that.
C
Yeah. And we had to cut that and cut that and put a new one in there.
B
Yeah.
A
I'll be a Popeyes.
B
I know. That's a wild temp job. Damn.
A
How was Popeyes? How was that experience?
C
Popeyes was dope. It was dope. It was my first job I got. That's when I really start, you know, getting money. And then I was blowing it on Madden. When Madden come out college, I used to get the games in Jordans. I just blew it all on that end.
A
What was the picking situation in there? What were you allowed to have?
C
Nothing. But I stole a lot, so. Yeah. Yeah. I used to just eat like, you.
A
Know, like make your own shit. Like when you make your own kind of sandwich, you'd have to sneak it.
C
Now, we didn't do that. I didn't do it.
A
I always fantasize about that, like working at McDonald's, making my own stuff, putting my own stuff together.
C
Knowing you work there. Because, like, it was one time it threw me off. It was. I was getting chicken out and it was a rat in there. Fried in a grease, just cooking. And when I got chill, I'm like, damn. Like. Because sometimes at overnight the rats will fall into grease.
B
Yeah.
C
And then they just cook. It's fry.
B
Oh, good.
C
So that's eating fast food with those big fryers. Never know what's in there.
B
I just ruined my week, dude. That's brutal.
A
Ruined my life. Popeyes, like two nights ago.

B
What was the first concert you went to? Like music.
C
Oh, music concert. Oh, oh. The first one I really enjoyed was Juice wrld.
B
Ah, there you go.
C
Yeah, it was good. And Juice wrote. He was so dope. His audience was dope. It was, it was great. Like he cared about his show. He brought his girlfriend out and he just did his thing. He had fun. Like that was an artist that had me.
B
You can see that.
C
When you can see that you're like, yeah. It was just like he lived up to his music.
A
Like I didn't know Juice World was a guy. I thought that was a festival.
C
That sound dope. They should start that Juice World festival. They should for him and then have all his artists that he used to like, you know, work with that.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
I didn't know.
C
Yeah, Juiceboro was that guy.
B
Yeah. I mean, yeah, short lived but everybody that's ever worked with him was like, it was every. Like everybody comes out is like I've never seen anybody do.
C
Man, I wish he was still alive. He was dope. Him and X. What's the name?
A
Xxtacion.
C
Yeah, them two, they were both great.
A
Yeah, that was fucked up.
B
Yeah, I was a little too old for that. What? Well, speaking of stand up, when was your first, when did you get into stand your first show?
C
Always, you know? Know what? That was my first thing I seen on tv. I was like, I want to do stand up. And I remember calling the improv and I was like, yeah, I want to come do stand up. Like who are you? And I'm like, marco, it's me, Marco. And I was like, yeah. It was like, well, it was like, well, I don't know. It doesn't work like that. You got to get booked or something. I'm like, how do I do it? And it was like, you gotta. You know, the club, we gotta get recommended. And I'm like, okay. And that was like my first time just randomly calling, so I always wanted to do stand up. It was just like when I got the chance to do it, when I could have, I didn't know it was nerve because I'm antisocial.
B
Sure.
C
So when I scared talking in front of all those people, I'm like, damn, it's different. So, yeah, I didn't like it.
A
Isn't it weird remembering that, like, we did the same thing? It's like, I want to do stand up. How do you exactly do it? And you call and you ask, like, how does this work? Yeah, like, you know what I mean? Like, oh, you come and sign up for an open mic. Somebody had no idea. I had no idea what the first step was.
C
Right.
A
I was 32. I didn't know anything.
C
Late bloom, right? You get to learn, though. Yeah.
B
Huh. All right. What? And then. I'm sorry.
A
I was gonna say I was gonna get to Atlanta. So you moved. Why did you move to Atlanta?
C
I moved to Atlanta because I wanted more. It was a. It was funny because a stranger DM me and he said, oh, you know, Rihanna follow you? And I'm like, damn, I didn't know that.
B
So you were already. You were already your Instagram or whatever.
C
Yeah, I was doing Walmart videos in Kansas City. So he like, rihanna follow you? And then at the time, I was doing rap lyrics on people. So I write down. I do a song and I write down the lyrics, and I run up on strangers and say lyrics to people. So, okay, anywhere. Lyrics that they say, I said to people. And then I just, you know, put in a caption such and such song so they know that's a song. So when Rihanna liked a video idea, I think I was doing Lil Wayne lyrics. And I was going. And then when I seen Rihanna like it, I'm like, He told me, I'm like, oh, wow, I'm about to go do a Rihanna song, cuz she see it. So I went and did a Rihanna song.
A
Smart.
C
And then he was just like, man. He was like, you got a manager? I'm like, nah. He was like, you want to move to Atlanta? I'm like, yeah, I didn't Know this.
A
Is just a random guy.
B
That's crazy.
A
Let me ask you, what made you start to want to do? Did you think that, like, was this planned out of, like, this. You know, the Internet's just going to keep moving forward, these kind of videos, this kind of stuff is going to get more popular?
C
I wasn't thinking.
A
You were just doing it.
C
Yeah, like, to do it. Yeah.
A
And just as a creative outlet.
C
Yeah, it was fun. So I know I used to do it. I used to get sad a lot sometimes, but when I laugh, it was like I forgot I was sad. So I was like, I want to cater to those people that, damn, you.
B
Know, guys got a good heart, deep, thoughtful.
C
So I was just doing videos for them. I'm like, oh, this is funny. So I really was doing it for people, like, right. To make them laugh.
A
And what kind of views are we looking at about this time? When the manager hit you up.
C
Don't need some tissue?
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever you want.
C
No, it was. I was hitting like a million views. I was hitting like a million views.
A
Gotcha.
C
All right, so you're cooking. Yeah.
B
Are you making money from it yet? There's no.
C
Like, I was doing YouTube. I was doing YouTube.
A
So.
C
So, like, YouTube, I was making like, what, like 1500, 2000amonth.
A
Okay.
B
Yeah, that's good.
C
Yeah. Even with Twitch, I was like, on Twitch. I think I made my twitch, like, in 2000, I think. 2001.
A
Okay.
C
And I was supposed to start Twitch too.
B
It was the first 2001. No way.
C
Yeah. It shows when you make the account. When you make your first, which was around.
A
That's what Play with numbers.
B
Wait, that's 24 years ago.
C
2011, I think. Or yeah, probably. Yeah, 2001. There's no way one of them.
B
Well, no way. Well, Justin TV came out 2006, and that was like what Twitch then became.
C
Yeah, yeah. So I started my YouTube since the 80s. So that was my thing. I said I should have had, like, been listening to them, like, with the help. But I was just so caught up in this Instagram real.
A
I gotcha.
C
I'm going up on followers. I was just seeing that. But as a content creator, touch everything. When you right at your peak, when people are loving you, touch everywhere. Because it sucks when you step our game. I know. Yeah. It sucks when you got to go back and work backwards.
B
Yeah. But certain things really, like, oh, no one cares about this anymore. And then it's like, like, yeah, tick tock.
C
Like, if you didn't do tick tock.
B
It'S like we started that late. Yeah, we just started doing Face. Someone's like, your Facebook. You got to do Facebook. I look at, we had like a thousand views on Facebook or a thousand followers on Facebook.
C
And what it is, is you got.
B
To build that up when you don't.
C
Catch on to it. Somebody affect profiles making it for you. So somebody that's doing it because I had a fake Facebook, I had a fake tick tock. And I'm like, damn, they getting all this and I'm getting mad. But how can you get mad at somebody for seeing your potential? And it's like, you ain't making what I do for you and I make the money then.
B
So.
A
So you moved to. So did this guy turn out to be legit? The guy?
C
Yeah, yeah, he was. He was. He was legit in a way.
A
He's still not your manager?
C
No, me and him are good. We working. So he's not my manager. So I kept him on around. So we are still.
A
There you go.
C
He's not my manager, but when I got there, he was staying with his girlfriend and I. I got put in the hotel and I'm like, okay, that's different. And then he's like, you can come to my house. Like, you know, I just wanted to let my girlfriend know, like, what I'm doing and what I'm working.
A
He's paying for the hotel.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
What is your. What does your mom and everybody say? Like, hey, you know what's great?
C
They didn't give a. Nobody cared.
A
You quit your job at the water department. Hey, yeah, these videos are doing good.
C
Yeah. This guy had got fired from the water department. I had to quit. They told me, quit doing videos or work for the water department because it was bad for the company, because it was for the city, because I was doing it.
B
Kind of makes sense.
C
I was doing videos in my uniform too. So.
B
Yeah, like, UPS don't let you. You know what I mean?
C
Yeah.
B
So they shut that shit down.
C
And then they were like, water main break. They're like, this is going too viral. It's not looking good. And they was like, either quick video or quit this. And I was like, I'm gonna just. I'm gonna quit.
A
Yeah. Was whoever told you that? Were they supportive? Like, listen, yeah. Were they like, you should do the videos, not the order department?
C
No, he didn't say that.
B
Somebody gets it. Somebody gotta get in a hole. They just lost their main hole guy.
C
Right. But the thing is, I wasn't good at jobs. My Personality. Y' all know that one co worker. It seemed like you'll probably be one.
B
Yeah, man.
C
It's like, you. You suck at your job, but they love your personality so much. My personality kept my jobs.
A
Yeah.
B
Because I was probably most comics.
C
Yeah.
B
Or like, hey, I know I can do what I have to do to maintain this and not get fired, but I'm a vibes guy.
C
Yeah.
A
Yeah. I was. Yeah. I was a good people.
C
Yeah. Yeah.
A
As far as side work and shit at the restaurant. I know.
C
To make people laugh and shit.
A
Yeah.
C
Yeah.
A
That I couldn't fire you Right. To you tomorrow.
C
That's how it probably is in NFL, too. They probably like, man, he's a good leader, but he sucks on the field.
B
Yeah. They call. They call him glue guys in the locker. He's a locker. Yeah.
C
Locker.
B
Yeah.
C
Yeah.
A
It's funny. So you moved to it. So you go to Atlanta.
C
Yeah, and I stay with him, and then I'm in a hotel for a little bit. And he was like, yeah, well, all right. I'm gonna let you come to my house with my girl. And he was like, I just got an extra room. I'm gonna clean it up. So I get there. He showed me the room. It's dog everywhere. It's like the dog room. And, yeah, I'm gonna get that clean time. I'm air mattress.
B
It's crazy. You didn't clean it up before you.
C
So I'm just sleeping on the couch.
A
And trying to book talent.
C
All right.
B
But also, you gotta give him. He got you that. Like, he took a shot. You know what I mean?
C
And the bad part is, what happened was he ended up putting me in another hotel. In this hotel. I'm going in the lobby, and it was another guy. He was like, oh, shit. You. That guy that's blown up like the Walmart guy, he's like, man, he's like, I got somebody I love for you to meet. Like. And I'm all right, cool. And then I tell the guy that got me there in the lane, like, man, he want me to meet somebody. He's like, I bet I'll come with you. So we go to this meeting, and the guy that introduced me to the guy he wants me to meet, he's now told the guy I was. He was managing me, so I didn't know.
B
So you guys are sitting there with two managers. Yeah.
A
So.
C
And the guy. That's me. He's the big guy of Atlanta. Like, he's the guy. Like, everybody love him. Everybody want to get next to him. And he's just talking to me like he saw my shit. He's like, oh, yeah, I see. You got potential. He was in the music industry, so.
A
Okay.
C
He was just like, oh, love. And he was just like, I want to talk to you. And then, you know, both of them, they went out like the manager I had and then the fake one I didn't know that was saying I was. He was just like, what is your.
A
You mean the guy in the hotel?
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He left out. And he was like, what's your goal? And I was like, I just want to grow and, like, you know, get bigger and I want to learn. And when I said those words, he said those stood out to him. Cause usually when people meet him, they talk about money.
B
Yeah, I'm trying to get paid. Sure.
C
And I was thinking about money.
A
Yeah.
B
Talking about cash up.
C
From there, I started working with him more. And I got to go to his house. He had a bigger house.
A
No dog shit.
C
Yeah. He had all these cars. And I'm like, damn. And I'm learning from him. So then that started making me.
A
So that guy became your manager?
C
Yeah.
B
Who was it, if you don't mind me asking?
C
His name was Ray Daniels. Yeah, so, yeah, he was.
A
I mean, those other guys had to kind of understand.
C
Yeah.
A
Dog shit in an air mattress.
C
Yeah.
A
Bunch of cars.
C
Yeah. So. But it was great, you know, at the time, but having. I got caught up in a facade because I'm living in this house and I'm taking pictures, like in his Sprinter and everything. And then I had to, like, I'm, like, shitting on my city right now.
B
It's hard not to fall into that, though.
C
But at one time I was like, you know, I need to get my own. Like, I can't get caught up in this. And I end up leaving and I distanced myself and, you know, everything was great. It was just in my head, you're still making the.
A
You're still progressing in.
C
Yeah. But he taught me how to make money on Instagram and, like, my first viral, like, video in Walmart. It was like promo videos, 20,000. He brought it to me. He was just like. One thing about promotion videos. He was like, he hate when people used to do, like, you know, when you do pay ads and they just post on their Instagram and take, like, post them. Like, follow them, follow them. He was like, never do that. He said, if you gonna take on a job, always make sure you include it. Show your face. You be with the product. If not, if you can't do it. Don't do it at all. And I was like, that's good. Like, don't do promo. He said, don't do promo unless you're in it, right? And then once he was like, I got a gig for you. And he was just like, it's a waist trainer video for $20,000. Go be funny. Do something with it. And I'm thinking, what the fuck can I do with a waist trainer?
A
Voice trainer.
C

A
A waist trainer.
C
And he's like, go to Walmart and go do something with it. Like. And I'm like, what the. Like, I can't put this on. I can't go out like this. So I'm trying to figure out. And he like, it's $20,000. I never seen 20,000. I'm trying to figure out. And I'm in Louisiana for. It was festival, the Walmart festival, Essence Festival that they have.
A
Okay.
C
I'm down in Louisiana and I'm running up on people at Walmart and I'm like, okay, all right. Let me ask them, do they got any more of these waist trainers? So I'm running up on random customers, and I'm like, do you got any more of these? And I say, the waist trainer brand. And this person was like, I don't work here. And I'm like, okay. I asked her again, I'm like, can you go in the back and get it? She's like, I don't work here, motherfucker. And then I was like, okay, this is it. I'm like, Cause I can irritate people and say the brand. And I say it and that video, like, I do that, and then I send it, complete it, send it to him, and she love it. And then the video goes on. And he was like, this is how you make money. And then he was just like. He worked with the record labels. He was like, I got a new artist I want you to break. Go in there, do these. Like, they won't pay you. Like, you know, this is how this happened. Yeah. $10,000 to do an IG post to say the rapper lyrics and tag the artist in the caption.
B
Damn.
C
Then I was Walmart doing, you should.
B
Be bringing gay deals like this.
C
Yeah. The hell are you doing racking up money with him? And he's just like, I'm. Right now I'm with recording with record labels because they, like, the abuse are going crazy. And they love these Walmart videos. And I going in there and like, you know, the city girl songs come out like city girls. And I'm walking on people like, oh, my. So wet. And I'm just talking and staring at them after I say that. And they like. And it was funny because I used.
A
To out of the box advertising.
C
I used to get people from Walmart because I used to be in Walmart for hours. But I find a customer that talks to me, I'm like, oh, like, I'll be in al. Like, are these good to get? Are these ladies? And they'd be like, yeah, they're good. I like them. So I know now they. They mind. They will.

C
I don't like, feel like I'm finesse because I already want to give you the money. But like in Atlanta, some of these places, like Rotuity is already in it. So I really think they already put it in there. And then they watch it. It just. I don't like putting in a tip. And they watch you, like when you about doing. They watch your eyes and it's like.

C
Yeah. It's just some. I don't want to know.
B
I agree.
A
That's a great.
B
It's also. You've reached a point in your career you don't need to tie a tie.
A
You should.
B
There's nowhere you're going unless you.
C
I mean, not even that. I don't give a. If I was homeless. I still don't want to know how to tie a tie. Like, it's just.
A
You get your stakeholder however you want. When you're in a business meeting with those people, they're trying to get your business.
C
Yeah, I'm just. I'm some shit is okay with just like spelling. Like, I'm not good at spelling. I don't want to know how to spell because I feel like your brain is like a memory card. And I feel like that's other shit I got to remember.
B
Yeah. No. Hey.

B
You have the big one? Do you have the whole set?
C
I got the carry on. Both carry ons. That's it. But I know I. That was an investment for me because I know I'm not. I'm. When I get something I don't get, like, oh, I need to know. I'm not. I get it.
B
Once you got it and it's good.
C
I'm okay with keeping it for a while until somebody steal it.
A
This is gonna be. This is gonna be a dumb question. That's what I want to ask you.
C
It.

A
Yeah, but who would.
C
But you can lock it up, though.
A
But they can still steal the bag.
C
Exactly.
B
I would say. I would say if you have the full. I don't know. I Listen, the full set. If you have the full set, you're probably not flying coach.
C
But people that. Yeah, but the people that have that. You know, sometimes if somebody was still it. They got cameras. I don't think some people want to risk getting caught and up their whole.
A
You're flying up front.
C
ISO them sometimes. Yeah.
B
So you're not still in coach.
C
Okay, so look, what I'm saying.
B
We're not in coach. What I'm trying to say is I got a Samsonite.
C
It's okay not to. It just like, it depends on how long the flight is. La. You gotta fly first class because it's far. Sure, that's it. But, like, if it's somewhere like two hours and then you get. What's the other one you gotta sit? Comfort, comfort, comfort. Plus, I can sit in comfort.

Hosts: Kevin Ryan & H. Foley
Guest: Funny Marco
Episode Air Date: October 23, 2025
This episode welcomes comedian, internet sensation, and interviewer Funny Marco to the Are You Garbage? hot seat. The show’s signature blend of playful interrogation and revealing stories explores Marco’s journey from a humble Kansas City upbringing to social media stardom, featuring a hilarious and authentic look at “garbage” status, generational hustle, family dynamics, and newfound success. Listeners get to hear about Marco’s origins, his creative process, the unconventional path to fame, and how he's redefined his dreams—while maintaining his roots…and a healthy dose of trashiness.

The episode is raucous, honest, and warm. Funny Marco’s unfiltered answers, like quirks with numbers, a lack of pretension about luxury, and his genuine desire to help others, make for a classic “Are You Garbage?” guest—one whose “trashiness” is wrapped, paradoxically, in humility and ambition. The stories (fried rats at Popeyes, sleeping at the foot of the bed, manifesting a Cybertruck) are colored by a thoughtful, comedic heart.
Best enjoyed for:
Funny Marco beautifully embodies the AYG tradition: from humble roots, marked by a loving but scrappy family, to influencer riches—but still brushing his teeth in the shower and sleeping at the foot of the bed. This episode is a celebration of not just making it, but of redefining what “garbage” means when success looks a little different than you thought.
