Boy.
Sebas
Cuz me, personally, I'm more mama's boy.
Josh
It depends. It depends on. I'm not. Yeah, it depends, you know, on what I need and who's going to provide. If I need love, I'll go to my mom's. If I need counsel, I go to my dad, you know?
Sebas
Oh, I like that. That's cool.
Concrete
Dad's got that wisdom.

Sebas
Hey, one thing that I was talking to Concrete is, like, after he did our podcast back in the other studio, he was saying that he was going out on tour and stuff like that, and he was meeting a lot of more females and shout out to you guys that were coming up to Concrete, like, yo, I came because of the guy in love with you.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
So, I mean, your platform definitely helped me sell some tickets, man. So thank you, guys. I appreciate it, man. Yeah, a lot of people were like, man, dude, we can't cause a la platy. Come here. On my boyfriend when I was there. That's pretty cool, man.
Concrete
Wow, bro, that. That's amazing to hear. Speaking of live shows. You do a lot of live shows?
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
You've been doing standup comedy for a.
Josh
Good amount of time now, roughly going on, maybe going maybe on three years.
Concrete
How often are you doing, like, live shows?
Josh
Oh, every week.
Concrete
Every week?
Sebas
Every week, bro.
Concrete
And it's a new material that you're coming up with. Like, what is your, like, structure?
Josh
Well. Well, what happens is, like, are you.
Concrete
Working on a special?
Josh
Yeah. Like, the first kind of. No, not really. I'm. I'm not really too. Like, I. I don't. I don't really need a special right now. I just kind of want to tour. Yeah. So for the first year and a half, I had, like, certain material, right?
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
And it was forever, like, changing. Like. Like, the first tour that I got on or the first show that I got on was Los Toxicos.
Concrete
Oh.
Josh
And that's with Jesus and Jerry and Frankie Quinones called me up, and they're like, yo, you want to host this? And I was like, yeah, I'll do it. And so I had Kind of like material. I was still getting my feet wet. It was kind of hard and I was like, all right, cool. And then once I started kind of getting, you know, like the hang of it, then I started doing my own tour. And that was the Perito's only tour. Oh, wow. Which, which kind of went. It kind of went from like the ending of 2023 to like all 2024.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
And that was. Man, that was an ass whooping.
Concrete
So you led that tour, like you kind of set the stage and brought the comedians together and stuff.
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
Oh, that's cool.
Josh
Yeah, that was me headlining the tour and then I, you know, like, I brought like a selective few to come out and do the show with me. We traveled the country and yeah, it was dope, man. I think we did well over 150 sold out shows, man.
Concrete
150, bro.
Sebas
Dam, bro.
Josh
Yeah, bro. All over the US from here all the way to Atlanta, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, San Luis, Miami, Orlando, Florida. Everything. Everything. Everything, bro.
Sebas
Bro, honestly, congratulations. That's amazing.
Concrete
That's massive, bro.
Josh
Thank you, bro. That's incredible.
Concrete
Yeah, that's incredible.
Sebas
You should be very proud of yourself, honestly.
Josh
No, dude, it's, it's, it's hard, bro. But we're working. I mean, of course. Oh, it must be really easy, bro, being on mom.
Sebas
Nobody knows the back end of it, right?
Josh
No. Where's the. Yeah, I mean, you know, I mean, you know, I got a family, I got a wife, so it's like that too. My work week starts on Thursday.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
And then I don't come back till Sunday.
Concrete
Damn.
Josh
And then really, my Saturdays and, and Sundays are Mondays and Tuesdays.
Sebas
And Perito, not only that, you're on social media creating content and then I.
Josh
Still gotta create social media.
Concrete
So when I'm pretty active with that, bro, like, yeah, it's at least three.
Josh
Or four videos a week. Yeah, three, four, five videos. Yeah.
Sebas
For how many like battery packs do you like carry in your pocket?
Josh
I was the, the. I was, I was at 30% on the way over here.
Sebas
Compa Mo, bro.
Concrete
So obviously you're on social media and you do like live shows, right? On social media, it's very easy for people to like kind of attack you and get like criticize you and stuff like that. I'm sure you're not. Kind of what I'm trying to get to is like, I feel like people criticize on social media, but in person you'll never going to get that kind of response. Right.
Josh
Do you.
Concrete
How do you balance that out? How do you deal with, like, the hate that you get on social media? Does it ever, like, cross over into your real life? Stand up, like, talk to us about that?
Josh
You know what's crazy about social media is that, you know, I can post a skit and if I bombs, I put my phone down, I don't get to see the comments. I'll leave it. Or I'll just walk away. Or you could delete it, right? Yeah, yeah. Thankfully for me, I don't. I don't really have that crazy. I mean, you get haters all the time.
Concrete
Stupid shit.
Josh
Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I'll do a skit about a cholo and they won't call me a gangster. I do a skit where I'm acting somewhat flamboyant, and they'll be like, you're gay. So it's like, you know, you can't. You know what I'm saying? You're never gonna be.
Sebas
You're never gonna win either.
Josh
Like, you're never gonna win. Right. So you try to. Do you know what I'm saying? To me, I use my platform as it's my real bro. For acting. It's my audition.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
And my social media has gotten me movies. Right.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
So the difference between social media and being live is that you can't just walk away. You can't just walk away when you're like. When your shit's bombing.
Concrete
Yeah. You gotta sit in it.
Josh
You got. Man, you gotta, you know, come with these in, like, an interesting. They call it eating a bag of dicks. So you really gotta sit there and just take it, bro, because, like, you just can't walk away.
Concrete
Yeah. So we're gonna go into doing, like, our first live show, which I broke. Been on social media for a long time. We both have. And we've always kind of hid behind a screen. Right. Like, we. I. I don't deal with, like, negativity pretty well. Like, I kind of take it to heart, you know?
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
So I gotta get over that.
Josh
I did, too, for a while.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
Yeah. I.
Concrete
He consults.
Josh
I would like. I'd be responding to messages and I'd like comments. I'm like, fool, meet me here, dog.
Concrete
No way. Where you at?
Josh
Oh, Nebraska.
Concrete
I'll see you in Nebraska.
Sebas
I'll catch a. I'll catch a spare airlines flight right now.
Josh
Give you a great home ticket right now.
Sebas
I'mma that fool out that f. When I see that. Meet me at Terminal 210 on his phone. Yeah.
Concrete
I'll take the peanuts. Yes.
Josh
Please, by the time you get there, you're not even mad no more. Yeah. Yeah, man. Why am I here, though?
Sebas
You know what? You hungry? I'm sorry.
Josh
Yeah, but.
Concrete
Yeah, but being a live show, like, that's a whole different element.
Josh
So.
Concrete
Yeah, we're not going to receive instant criticism. Right. Like, people are gonna be like, you're gay.
Josh
Right.
Concrete
But they're gonna be silent. They're gonna be. There could be some awkwardness that you kind of just have to deal with. Right?
Josh
Yeah. And then I feel like the people that come to my shows already with me.
Concrete
Yeah, that's dope. That's dope.
Josh
You know what I'm saying?
Concrete
So that energy is reciprocated.
Josh
Yeah.
Sebas
Which is amazing. And honestly, that's what's. Social media is so amazing that it brought you that. You know what I mean? Because there's some people that. They're trying to follow your footsteps as well, but they don't got the platform, so they just actually. Which is kind of Valiente, too, you know, and that's how everybody does it. It's just. They just pull up.
Josh
Yeah.
Sebas
And, you know, they make. They make people fall in love with them, and they. Hopefully they don't taste what a bag of dicks tastes like.
Josh
Yeah. I mean, ultimately, at the end of the day, dog, if, you know, in anything you're trying to do these days, bro, social media, you need social media. There's. There's. There's no other way around it no more. Now, I don't care if you've been a comedian for the last 20 years, you want to sell tickets, you better be on social media, because it doesn't work that way no more.
Concrete
Yeah, you got to sell yourself.
Josh
Like, you gotta sell tickets now. Because if not, there's guys like me that are taking up that weekend now.
Concrete
Damn. Even if they're a bigger name.
Josh
Even if they're a bigger name, like, it's. It's. It's not like that no more. So it's like. And it's nothing against anybody that's been in the game for longer. It's just that we have a platform. People want to see us. And, dude, I mean, we're working just as hard as you guys, too, you know, because I, you know, a lot of people were like, well, you're not a real comedian, man. You do social stuff. And I was like, man, look, what do comedians do? They make people laugh, right? What do I do? I make people laugh whether I'm on stage or on screen. It's just to Me making people laugh is the same.
Sebas
Yeah, yeah, but.
Josh
But obviously I had to take it into consideration. Like, stand up is a different animal. There is a different game to it. And I had to respect the craft and really get out there and really work my ass off and learn it to earn it, because some people will come out to my shows, like, it was funny, dog, but you got work to do. And I was like, all right.
Concrete
Did they tell you that?
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
Oh, damn.
Josh
I had a couple people tell. I mean, it wasn't crazy amount of people.
Concrete
Be honest.
Josh
But me, 100 good comments don't do nothing. For me, as the one that's criticizing, that's me, too.
Concrete
Yeah, that's.
Josh
I'll see one comment that's like, oh, man, this is a old skit. And I'm like, you're right. This is an old skit. Yeah, but he don't know that. 300 people just started following 300, 000 people just started following me in two years.
Sebas
Correct.
Josh
And I posted that skit four years ago.
Concrete
Right, right.
Sebas
It's good to look at both.
Josh
So it's new for 300 people. For 300, 000 people, you know, so, you know, like, I. I look at that one little comment, and I'm like, all right, cool. And then I'll go on a new. On a new skip binge for, like a week. I just dropping, like.
Sebas
But that's cool because, like, you actually care, because even that someone's talking, you care that you want to make that person happy.
Josh
I really care, bro. I, Like, I take it really close. Like, I take my page really first. Like, I take. Yeah, Like, I take it personally because there's times where people DM me, bro. And I mean, it happens quite a bit. And I never. I. I never post these dms. I think it's a very personal situation. But there's people that are like, yo, I'm going through cancer. I'm. I'm in remission. I'm going through depression. I just tried to commit suicide two weeks ago, bro. Or this and this and that. And then I. Bro, your videos keep me from doing.
Sebas
Yeah.
Josh
Or these videos have kept me from, you know, feeling sad. And I'm like, bro, like, you. At some point, it's not even about me no more. I did it. I did. I. I started doing this because. To help me.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah.
Josh
To just really help me be like, man, I'm. I'm in a dark place. I'm gonna do some skits. I'm gonna do some comedy. Yeah. But it's gotten to the point where, dog, it's like church for people. Yeah.
Sebas
Yeah.
Josh
Like they want it, you know? So it's. It's bigger than me now, bro.
Sebas
Yeah. And that's when you know you did something right. Like, do you ever feel sometimes where you almost like everything is kind of overwhelming in your life.
Josh
Oh, yeah.
Sebas
And then you just kind of want to stop. But then what really kind of carries you on is like, what you just said. Like, it's bigger than me now. I can't make this stop. It's an animal now. Concrete is an animal now. And I can't stop it because I'm sure there's so many times. Because being in social media and I'll tell people back at home, if you guys want to be on social media, it sometimes sucks because, like, you're always trying to top yourself, right. You're always trying to be funnier, you're always trying to be funny. Or you're always trying to like, make a better video. And like, you'll make a better video with better quality and better people in it. And then it flops and you're like, what the just happened? And then you're like, what do I do? What do I do wrong? But you're always trying to top yourself and that kind of. With you.
Josh
Well, yeah, like, it. It's crazy because the times that I've wanted to do better quality videos and I wanted to take out my. I mean, I shot for 12 years, right?
Sebas
Yeah, you were telling us. Yeah.
Josh
So I wanted to do better looking music videos and people were like, I mean, better skits and they're like, nah. Like, ah, this shit's whack. And I'm like, they want the. That just looks organic.
Concrete
Yeah, they want that raw.
Josh
They want that raw.
Sebas
That's with everything.
Josh
They don't want to watch something that looks too polished. If it's polished, bro. Like, I watch it on YouTube, I watch it on Netflix, but I don't want to watch it.
Sebas
Right, right, right.
Concrete
I feel like there was like a, like a, like there was like a curve in social media. Like, it started off very raw. The webcams, right. Like that was in. And then it got really polished, like during the Casey Neistat era of vlogging. Like, very high budget, high quality. And now I feel like it's back to people just want to see authentic, organic, like original from people just coming from, how do I connect with you as a human?
Josh
They don't want the bells and whistles.
Concrete
They don't want the bells and whistles.
Josh
It's because you can't hide. You. You can't hide, bro.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
Like, you can't just spray cologne on a piece of. And make. And people think it ain't gonna work like that.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
You know what I'm saying? You, like, you can't shoot it with the best cameras and the best lighting if the content's whack. If. If the context of the content's whack.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
It don't matter what the. You shoot it.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Josh
You know what I'm saying?
Sebas
Yeah.
Josh
Like, if. If it ain't funny, it ain't funny in 4k or in 10k, bro. It doesn't. It don't matter, bro. You know? Like, so work on the context of the content and then worry about how you're gonna present it to the people.
Concrete
And maybe if it's in 1080p, it kind of makes it a little bit more funnier.
Josh
720 is the best.
Concrete
You know what I mean?
Josh
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 720 is the best.
Concrete
Like, bro, some of my favorite videos of yours is like, when people, like, send you photos of like, hey, fool, what are you doing over here? And it's like, clearly something is like, not you, but kind of resembles you. And then you'll figure out a way to make it look almost identical to you. Where I, like, trip out. I'm like, bro, is this it?
Sebas
Like, trips. I came to a conclusion that you have so many doppelganger, bro.
Concrete
It's crazy.
Sebas
Like, people are sending you these videos. Correct.
Josh
And every day.
Sebas
Every day, every day.
Concrete
Does it trip you out or.
Josh
People send me from, like, China, bro, and like, Russia. Like, hey, there's a guy over here, bro.
Sebas
Those are.
Josh
That.
Sebas
Those are my favorite, bro.
Concrete
What's funny? It's like, it's not even things that have gone viral. It's like just random photos. And then you'll take that and you'll make a whole, like, story out of.
Josh
It, and then that'll go viral. That's the content. Like, the last one I posted, though, that. That was last week. I think it did. Like, we're. We're maybe reaching. Let me see. Just. Yeah, I think it's maybe like. I think we're at 1.6. Yeah. Yeah. 1.6 million views. We're at 130, 000 likes. 53, 5300 comments. That, to me, like, that's a banger food. Like, I don't know. That's a banger, you know?
Sebas
And everyone's sharing it and.
Josh
Yeah, bro. And then, you know, like, dude. I mean, one of the guys. Actually, that I did. I did one last month, and it was. He was wearing, like, a Cholula biker suit. I don't know if you guys saw that one. Well, the dude actually reached out, and he was like, yo, man, she was funny. I appreciate it. And then I couldn't make the premiere of the movie for Orchata and Oat Milk, which was on. April fool was on, bro.
Concrete
Do not tell me you sent him.
Josh
So they sent him instead of me.
Concrete
Wow, bro.
Josh
They did.
Concrete
They found him and they're like, yo.
Josh
They're like, hey, do you mind? I was like, no, bro, I can't make it. You know, and they play them as concrete.
Concrete
Like, they introduced them as concrete.
Josh
Yeah. So they put him up there, a little bow tie, his hair was down.
Concrete
Dude, that's. That's genius marketing. That's the way to do.
Sebas
Hilarious.
Josh
Do you mind? I was like, no, man. Dude, I don't. You.
Sebas
But send me the check.
Josh
Something. Something concrete.
Sebas
So, yeah, we're going to do our first live show, by the way, I. I was surprised. So many tickets already sold, bro.

Josh
Like, what are we doing, like a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday?
Concrete
No, it's just one day. It's just one day just to kind of get our feet wet, you know? But the show is going to be like, we want to put on. Put on a full performance, you know? Like, we don't just want to, like, live podcast. Like, we want to put on a show, but, I mean, we're nervous, bro. You know?
Sebas
Yeah, we're nervous. So that was my question, and our question was tips.
Josh
I still get nervous, bro.
Concrete
And I kind of like that.
Josh
To me, nervous is a sense of. You give a. Yeah. You care if you went up there? Yeah, let's go.
Concrete
We got whatever. Yeah.
Josh
The moment. Every time I've done a show, and I'm like, fool. The crowd looks easy. Let's go, fool. Bomb.
Concrete
Worst show.
Josh
Bomb.
Concrete
You're too comfortable.
Josh
It's too comfortable, bro. You got too comfortable. And that's just the way it is.

Yeah.
Josh
But as long as you guys have something fresh. And I mean, the good thing is that you guys.
Sebas
It is gonna Be fresh.
Josh
You're coming in with the built in audience, of course, which is amazing because our supporters, bro, it's your support.
Sebas
So it's almost kind of like an anti bomb.
Josh
Right, you know? Well, ah, man, you'd be surprised how many people be like, I thought I was gonna be different.
Concrete
Yeah, people, people are paying money, bro. You know, I gotta babysitter for this.
Josh
What the. You know, like, you know, like, come on.
Concrete
So you.
Josh
I know.
Sebas
And that's what makes me nervous.
Josh
Yeah.
Sebas
Cuz like I really care about people's time and like I'm. I consider myself semi funny and. But I'm not a comedian so like.
Josh
Don'T try to be.
Sebas
No, no, no. So like I'm just going to go be myself.
Concrete
I am nervous funny and I don't mean to call you out. You're less funny when you try to be funny. You're funny when you're Jess Sevas, but when you like try to get there, it just doesn't hit and it doesn't work for anybody. Right. It's like when you.
Josh
No, if even comedians, bro, like you can tell when a comedian's trying to like outdo the guy that he. That, that just killed it right before.
Concrete
Yes.
Josh
You know what I'm saying?
Concrete
Yes. Yes.
Josh
So, so, so you'll see a guy that kills you, like, and you're like, I'm next. I'm like, oh, I'm gonna, I'm gonna go 10 times harder. And it's like, no, man, just play your game, bro. Yeah, just play your game. Play your game. You know? You know what I'm saying? But dude, you look, it ain't gonna be perfect. Just, just know that. And if it is perfect, then congratulations, you guys. You guys have created something that nobody has. Right? But going with the mentality like there's gonna be some, some to iron out, bro, and that's fine as long as you guys recognize it. You know what I'm saying? It's again the moment that you're like.
Sebas
Ah, yeah, no, I'm really excited. And not only that, just excited to meet everybody back at home that that's able to go. And just some, just another thing that we, me and Josh can check off our list, you know.
Josh
And that's what. That's 500 cedar dog. That's a 5, 550 or 580.
Concrete
I heard it was 650.
Sebas
I don't know.
Josh
I think it is 650. Yes, you're right, it is.
Sebas
But yeah, somebody hit me up and they're like, there's no more VIP tickets. I didn't know there was VIP tickets.
Josh
Yeah, yeah.

Sebas
It's on a Tuesday.
Josh
Thursday.
Concrete
It's on Thursday.
Sebas
Thursday.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sebas
So I'm pretty excited.
Concrete
I've seen Live when people do like live podcasts and they're cool and stuff, but I feel like we have so much more that we can offer. So we want to add like a little bit of like our own FL to it and stuff like that. And I think those are the parts that we really just got to iron out to make sure that it gets like executed like correctly. Right. And it's just like repetition. Right. Just continuing to like build and work on it. How often do you like practice your sets? Are you like literally in the mirror like practicing your sets and cuz I'm about to do that.
Josh
Nah bro, me too, bro.
Sebas
Now that he says that he's going too man.
Josh
I'm going be in the front like this.
Concrete
He's like, Simon cow.
Josh
I'll be like, like this. H, please.
Concrete
No, honestly, honestly, your kind of feedback would be very like.
Josh
No, I'm telling you. Look bro, so I go and try out new material at least once a week. What I do is that I, I book like a smaller venue.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
And then I'll just like, I'll tell people like, yo, it's a workout room tonight, come check me out. I'm working on new material and then they'll come. But with the expectations that it's going to be, you're going to see new material. Obviously I'll give them two or three bangers that I've been working on already so that they at least go with the intent. But for the most part it works out, bro, you know, and you know, and very randomly I'll go into a hole in the wall spot, I'll do some new. But I rather make money while I'm working out, you know, I love that. Yeah. So I sell tickets for my workouts cuz it's like, you know, if not another club is just going to make money off of whatever, you know.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Josh
So no, but just do work out man, just go through it, dog. Go through it. You know, I mean what I would suggest is, is, is, is Maybe even gather 20 of your closest friends, man, and just kind of put the, you know, if you guys have a show that' now do something very like intimate local here. If you got, you know, put 20, 30 chairs here or whatever and just have people come out and just vibe.
Concrete
Out and that's a really good idea, bro.
Josh
You know what I'm saying?
Concrete
Yeah. And that's probably going to be more nerve wracking than the whole show. Like 20 of your.
Josh
Let me, let me tell you, bro. Let me tell you. As soon as that mic goes on and they say give it up for la platica and you guys come out and you guys say the first words on the mic for the time's going to fly, dog.
Concrete
Damn.
Josh
Because the people that are going to, they're there to see you guys.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah.
Josh
So whatever the. You say that people, you know what I'm saying? It's like my tennis, you know what I'm saying? Like it's going to, it's going to be quick, dog.
Sebas
Yeah, know. We're super excited.
Josh
Your girls are like, I'm like, mom, chill out, relax.
Sebas
I was speaking to my wife today and I was like, guess how many tickets we sold? And I told her and, and she was like what? I think she understood like. And now she's just like what? This is going to be crazy.
Concrete

That's like the last people I want to call just to see if my medication is covered. Right? Like I'm not doing it. Especially not for GLP1 like Ozempic or WeGovy.
Sebas
The cool thing about RO, their insurance checkers let you know if you're approved for free.
Concrete
RO can help you guys understand if GOP ones like Ozempic or Wegovy are right for you and your goals, which is the most important thing. But that's just the beginning.
Sebas
And Josh, there's no paperwork, no negotiations, and no waiting on hold.
Concrete
Sounds like A win, win, win. Guys, join the over115,000 members who have trusted RO to check their coverage for free.

That's Ro Colatica. To see if your insurance covers GLP1s. Like he said. Say with me now for free.

Josh
The Ramen. The Ramen bowl is out of control.
Sebas
Yes.
Josh
The Ramen bowl is out of this world.
Sebas
It's such a cool spot, bro. And they have like, like my ties and stuff like that.
Concrete
So it's not in the park. It's outside of the. Yeah, it's his own little like thing outside the park.
Josh
It's a vibe dog. You will be like, honestly, I've had more fun on the outside bar.
Sebas
Yeah.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
Than I have inside, bro. Yeah. You know, I don't know. Maybe because I just. I'd be sipping and.
Sebas
But when you go to Disneyland, California Adventure, where do you normally like, have a couple sips or some drinks?

Yeah, normally.
Sebas

Sebas
And it nums your.
Josh
Yeah, yeah. It's a cool little bar right there, dog. Yeah. Yeah.
Sebas
I love that bar. I like. I like, like sci fi, obviously. Star wars and stuff like that. One thing that I've been wanting to do too, and I haven't pulled the trigger on. And I don't know if you guys are Star wars fans, but I want to watch the. From the first Star wars all the way to the. To the new one right now.
Josh
Really?
Sebas
Because they're gonna come out with a new one soon. So I want to like.
Josh
Are you a fan of the new stuff? I'm not a big fan.
Sebas
I never seen Star Wars. Can you believe it? Sevas has never seen Star Wars. I mean, I have, but never, like.
Josh
You know, like, I didn't see it until. Until my son started showing me.
Sebas
Got it.
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
From the beginning. You saw it like, started from. Because they start off like on four, right? It's like four, five, six.
Josh
It goes like back. Yeah, like, it's not. It's not exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sebas
No, but you have to go to Trader Sam's, bro. It's such a vibe.
Josh
It's a vibe. It's a vibe.
Concrete
I'm going to do it. Yeah, I'm going to do it.
Sebas
I don't know why I just came up with this question, but. And I'm going ask both of you if you only Cuz pretend that you're at a bar. Right. But your limit is only two drinks. Okay, but you need to get, like, the most faded possible. What are those two drinks you have.
Concrete
To get the most faded possible?
Sebas
Yeah.
Concrete
Long Island Iced Tea.
Sebas
Oh, that's a good one. That's a good one.
Concrete
And then I'm going to go. What is it called? The. The blue one.
Josh
Okay.
Concrete
Yeah.
Sebas
So you're basically at a tgif.
Concrete
Living large, baby.
Sebas
I used to live in Temecula.
Concrete
You said it faded, bro.
Sebas
And people would go to Fridays because that was the Thursday night spot. We party at Fridays. That was the thing.
Josh
Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, and adios was like. Yeah, that's. That's what you would. It Was like. It was like the most, you know, affordable drink that you could get smashed on, you know? Yeah.
Sebas
Yeah.
Concrete
And if you ordered it, people knew. You're like, damn, you're gonna get out of your.
Josh
What about you? You know what? Because I can't do all the sweet liquor, man. I'm just. I'm. I'm doing straight two, you know, doubles, you know, two double shots, neat, straight to the.
Sebas
Two double.
Concrete
Straight to what the hunky. I. Me too, bro. Like, But I hate sweet drinks.
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
I hate sweet drinks. I'm a. I'm like. My typical. Is double tequila soda, bro.
Josh
That's all I do.
Concrete
That's all I do.
Josh
You. I do. I. I just do a knee, and then maybe like a. A beer, you know, just to kind of wash it down with. But usually I'm. I'm a shot guy, bro.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sebas
I used to be. I feel like now my. At the age that I'm at, I used to be a shot guy, and.
Josh
Now I just want to get there.
Sebas
No. Trust me. Me too.
Josh
I don't have time.
Sebas
Me too. I don't drink for the flavor. Like, I don't care what anybody says. All alcoholic drinks taste like a bag of dicks.
Josh
Right. It's not the greatest.
Sebas
Never had a bag of dicks.
Josh
But the sweet, like, the better it tastes for me. The worst. The word. The. The worst hangover.
Sebas
Yeah. Because it's all sugar.
Josh
It's all sugar. Yeah.
Sebas
But, yeah, I'm very straight to the point. If I can suck on the bottle, I'll suck on the bottle.
Josh
Oh, yeah. I'm that guy.
Sebas
I'm not doing it.
Concrete
So what's your answer?
Sebas
But I do like a Old Fashioned.
Concrete
Okay.
Sebas
Have you had an Old Fashioned before? Yeah, I do like an Old Fashioned. My answer to get up would be the same as concrete, but if I had to pick, like, a mixture drink to make things a little bit more spicy. Spicy. I would do a double Old Fashioned. Right? Because. Wow. Well, to get up, I need the sugar.
Concrete
Damn.
Sebas
So put the bitters in and put the two blocks of sugar, and let's go straight to the bloodstream. And then I would probably do, like, In Adios or. Or like, this crazy concoction that, like, includes a Jaeger bomb or something.
Josh
Yeah.
Sebas
You know, I mean, if I had.
Concrete
To give Sex on the beach.
Josh
If I had to give fancy with it.
Sebas
Tex on the beach is a good one.
Josh
No, probably Tequila sunrise. A paloma or something. Yeah, you know, I love a paloma. A little paloma. You know, A little tahin on the rim.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
Catch me licking the. You know what I'm saying?
Sebas
When you were in high school, let.
Concrete
Me tell you about my dreams and aspirations.
Josh
You don't understand me trying to have a good conversation, you know, have a man with your boy.
Sebas
You're like, they say, guys, I shouldn't have anything on the rim, bro. And like after I heard that, like, I just don't do anything on the.
Josh
Rim that put more on it for the whole dip that I want you to dip before. I want you to all kinds of talking on it for me. I want my boy to look at me and start thinking stuff. Damn.
Sebas
Or you should go over there, talk to that girl. Yeah, no, that's probably what I would do. That's probably what I would do.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right?
Sebas
I mean, that's. That's what it is.
Concrete
My two favorite drinks in the world right now though, like, my go to is old fashioned. If I sit down at a nice restaurant, let me get an old fashioned, right? But I don't like them too sweet. Like, I like them a little bit more on the stronger side. I want to taste more of like either the, the rye or the, the whiskey.
Sebas
Sure.
Concrete
But tequila soda, that's like goated for me. Forever goated.
Josh
Let's go. That's just. Let's go.
Sebas
But like I said, now I'm at an age where I can't drink like that no more. It's, it's, it's. It's like three, four, four shots. And then by the time, you know, I don't even remember the next day really. And I just wake up.
Josh
Yeah.
Sebas
It doesn't hit me the same anymore.
Josh
My tolerance has grown. Well, I didn't, to be honest, I didn't start drinking until like my 30s.
Sebas
Really?
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
And you're 31.
Sebas
No way. Yeah, no way.
Josh
Yeah. Like, I didn't. Well, the way I drink now. Yeah, like, I didn't start drinking. Like, I didn't start drinking shots. Like. Really? Yeah.
Sebas
Wow, that blows my mind, honestly.
Josh
Yeah, I was, I was just a weed smoker. Just smoke weed and that was it.
Sebas
Smoking weed. You know what? I know a lot of people like that. I know a lot of people like.
Josh
That and that, that got born. I was like, I don't want, you know, and then I started hanging boys that sip a little bit and I started just, you know, neat on the rocks and that was it. And I was like, okay, this is cool.
Sebas
I can do this. I still, at my age, I can't do the cigar thing.
Josh
I guess what I was, it messed it up. Cuz when I was, when I started drinking young, I was drinking cheap. And when you drink cheap, that nouveau it you up.
Sebas
Oh, nouveau was fancy.
Josh
I was talking about Steel Reserve Dog. I was doing it. I was going, I was bad dog.
Concrete
I thought I was living large on that nouveau.
Sebas
Nouveau was balling.
Josh
No, I was doing like Southern Comfort and Dr. Pepper.
Concrete
Oh, I didn't go that, I didn't go that long.
Sebas
No, my lowest was.
Josh
I didn't go that urban.
Sebas
My, my, my absolute lowest. My absolute lowest was enj. That's.
Josh
Yeah, that's Southern Comfort right there. That's.
Sebas
They're right next to each other.
Josh
Right next to each other on the.
Sebas
Bottom shelf for sure.
Josh
Right where it says $5.99.
Sebas
Yeah. ENJ, bro. Disgusting, bro.
Concrete
But I didn't start drinking till I was like 22. So I kind of had, I had a little bit of money. So like you know, I mean I flex on the nouveau. I was.
Josh
Okay, okay.
Sebas
What were you doing at 22 with a little bit of money?
Concrete
I started social media, bro. I started at 20.
Sebas
That's right.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah, 22. I was probably making like 1500amonth.
Sebas
Nice. That's a lot of money for.
Josh
Yeah, for a 20 years.
Concrete
Huh.
Josh
What year is this for a 22 year old?

Josh
Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're only a few years apart. That's crazy.
Concrete
No, I was making more than that. But you know now.
Josh
Yeah, but I wasn't even thinking about. Oh, I was.
Concrete
Million.
Josh
Yeah, I, I think like the fanciest I did in the 2000s or 90s was probably like Z putting up the cal.
Concrete
How much is, what does it convert to now? Inflation calculator.
Josh
What is it he like three grand? Let's see. I'm curious now.
Concrete
Yeah, no, it can't be three grand. Is it about 2000?
Josh
Yeah.
Concrete
What about 2000? 1500.
Sebas
Damn.
Concrete
That's kind of crazy.
Josh
Damn.
Concrete
Inflation is a trip concrete.
Sebas
Has there been a city or a state that you've been to recently where you never thought you'd be but you actually love it?
Josh
Milwaukee.
Sebas
Milwaukee, yeah. Explain.
Josh
I never. Why would I. I would have never in a million years go to Milwaukee. Thought I'd be going to Milwaukee.
Concrete
But does it trip you out when you're there? Like you're like, I'm in Milwaukee.
Josh
Yeah. Cuz it's like frio. Like cloudy. Nah, but it was cool, dog, cuz we sold a lot of tickets and I was like, I didn't even know those Mexicans out here, bro. We're everywhere. Everywhere. We're building America, dog. No, we have, we're literally building America everywhere. And I was just like, man, like, what the am I.
Sebas
We're not building America. We built America. We built America and we're still building on top of that. Yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's crazy.
Josh
Yeah, we were in Milwaukee and, and you know, because we did five shows in Chicago and my manager was like, you know, he's on some Elvis manage, management type of. You guys are doing shows everywhere right now.
Sebas
Oh really?
Josh
So he said, let me build Milwaukee. Wow. I'll book it for you guys. So we did that and then, you know, on a random Wednesday, Tuesday, and we're like, like for real do. People are going to come out and sure enough, do the.
Sebas
It's probably really cool because in Milwaukee there's probably not many people with your sense of humor.
Josh
So you know, something new over there, Rasa doesn't hit those places.
Concrete
Yeah.
Josh
So whenever they see anybody that's from the culture or Latino, they're like, they, they pull up, cuz they don't get that. And they'll tell us like, man, nobody ever comes here, dog. God. Like the only time they, they come through here is when they're flying by.
Sebas
They're all kicking the ground. Nobody ever comes here.
Concrete
Nobody ever kicks.
Josh
They're just kicking the dirt. I'm telling you. I've heard that so many times. Like we just did Pittsburgh too. Pittsburgh, California.
Concrete
Pittsburgh, California.
Josh
Exactly. And, and dude, we sold, we sold out the theater twice.
Concrete
Wow.
Sebas
Wow. And how are those theaters and like those areas and the people working there, they love it.
Concrete
Oh yeah, the energy is like vibrant.
Josh
The energy is crazy. Cuz again, dude, people there was like, man, nobody ever comes here. Like I think Fluffy came here, but like in 99 or some, you know, so when we hit these secondary markets, people love us for it. They're like, thank you for not like driving by and not stopping here. So we're, you know, we believe in doing everything from here to San Francisco, bro. You know, we do Visalia, we do Modesto, we do all the little towns, bro. So if there's more than you know, if there's a, if we could fit 500 people in a place, we'll.
Concrete
We'll figure it out. Damn, bro.
Sebas
Do you have like a favorite spot where, you know, you get the. The most love. And you love the venue, you love the staff, you love the audio, you love the lighting.
Josh
I mean, every place, it's. It's always been dope. But one of my favorite cities to do shows is El Paso.
Sebas
Really?
Josh
So that's awesome.
Sebas

And then I host, you know, the show for him. So he wanted to come out and see what I was doing and see if I was the right guy for the job. Wow. And when he came out that night, man, like, the people just like. I mean, dude, people, like, lost it when we were there. But the moment I was like, guys, I have a real celebrity here. I have Mario Lopez, and he came on stage. People were losing the dog. It was like Michael Jackson had showed up to El Paso, dog. It was crazy. They lost it, bro. They lost it.
Sebas
I'm gonna give El Paso its flowers. I never had a reason to go. I don't have family there. But a couple years ago, I met some really good friends out there. Met them through social media, Leslie and Alex. And, you know, we went out there. El Paso is such a cool city, and they have so much to offer. Such good food, good nightlife, great little bars everywhere.

Yeah, she used to, you know, she used to be a backup singer for Brooke Valentine. She was a backup dancer with like B2K and a bunch of other. So she did a bunch of stuff, you know what I'm saying? And so by the time she was 22 when I met her, she was already done with the industry. Like, I'm done with this. I just want to. I just want to be a wife. I just want to settle down. So it's perfect timing. At the time, I was still like, I want to be famous. And that didn't work out because I was doing it for the wrong reasons. Yeah, right. Even though I had good music, it's just, I wasn't doing it for the right reasons. And then so I started shooting music videos. And then so she's. She's seen the progression of like, like what it takes. And she knows, she's like, wow.

She's seen the grind, so she's like.
Josh
Yeah, let's keep pushing. Go, go, go.

Josh
Not even close, dog.
Sebas
That's not even a bucket list to me.
Josh
It's like the fact that he knew how to do the. The four one and then he graduated and I'm like, how do you just keep learning all. I'm like, that's.
Concrete
And that was on his own like, that he wanted to do that.
Josh
Never in a million years did I throw it upon him for.

You're trying to be like your older brother. Look at him. He's just like all hairy at seven.
Concrete
Long hair, bro.
Sebas
So I. I know you do so much for your family. Is there something that you've done for yourself recently? I mean, it's even since like the moment that we did the other interview at the other podcast. Dude, is there something that you bought yourself, love? You've treated yourself with something that you've always wanted.
Josh
Like, you know what's funny again, man? When you do things for the wrong reasons, it just doesn't pan Out.
Sebas
Wow.
Josh
So the first thing I wanted to do, I wanted to. Oh, I wanted to be that rapper. So I went and got me a chain and got me the pendant, a Bust down watch. They stole it. What? Gone stole it. And I was like, see, that's.
Concrete
Why did you get jacked? Or they like, they broke into your hotel, like, what happened?
Josh
No, it was at a show, bro. It was all caught on camera, actually.
Sebas
Seven shots later.
Josh
Seven shots later, fool. And it was right, like, right near the exit of the door. And we were just packing up, and people during the meet and greet, instead of going out the front where they came out the back way, he saw my backpack, grabbed my backpack and took it with him. And I had just bought my pen. They just had bought, like a brand new diamond chain.
Concrete
And he didn't even know what was in the bag.
Josh
He didn't even know it was in the bag.
Concrete
Oh, my.
Josh
So there's. And then he's like, oh, I left it at the bus stop. So there's some. There's a bum right now in West Covina right around with a pendant.
Concrete
You found it. Like, you found out who the guy was.
Josh
Oh, yeah.
Concrete
And then you messaged him. You're like, bro, I know you took my backpack.
Josh
Yeah, because he did the meet and greet and then there's cameras all over the place. And the tickets come with. It's a seating. So it's like we knew exactly who he was, where he sat. Wow.
Concrete
His credit card, everything.
Josh
Everything. Yeah, because when you pay for tickets, you buy them online.
Concrete
Yeah, yeah.
Josh
And it's your credit card and it tells you the seat, your. You know, everything, Everything. So we knew exactly who it was.
Concrete
So you messaged him. You guys hit him up.
Josh
I'm like, yo, I did a video. Well, I posted. I was like, hey, I know exactly who you are. You were wearing this, this, and the third. And then you were with this girl. That girl. And I posted on social media. And immediately he was like, hey, my bad, dog. How much was it? I was like, it's this much. And I was even nice. And I gave him the exact number, not more, not less. And I was like, this is how much I paid for it, bro. This is how much I had in there. He zelled me right away. Yeah, because I was. Yeah, because I was gonna blow his up. He's like, nah, bro, I work here, work there. I do this for a living. And I was like, then why would you. You. Why would you put yourself in that kind of situation?
Sebas
The fact that he called and Said, my bad, my bad. What?
Josh
He's like, hey bro, I didn't even take it, bro. And then so we looked at the front cameras and he did leave the bag there, but then like it just like I, I don't know if he came back or whatever, but the point is that he did leave the bag there. But, but I think he left the bag not because he, he regretted. I think he just, he was like, like cuz as they're walking away they're like oh, the cameras and they're like this. So they had, they're like food. Yeah, yeah.
Concrete
You got caught, bro.
Josh
You know, so I think that's why he left it back, you know. So I'm telling you man, there's probably some.
Concrete
But he's held you, he gave you back like the money for the chain and everything?
Josh
He gave back all my money.
Concrete
Damn.
Josh
I mean, yeah, cuz I was going to put him on blast and he's like, don't do it bro. I got a job, I got kids.
Concrete
But not only that, bro, you can press charges, right? Like it could.
Josh
Yeah. I didn't want to go that. I just wanted my money back, bro.

I seen him there, my. My sister was like, oh my God, that's Duno. And I'm like, who? She was doing? Oh, he did skits. And I was like, oh, what's up? Remember me? And then that was it, bro. You know?

And he came down to the students on a karita and I talked to him and I was like, look man, if you Want to get in this? Like, this is the time. Why don't you have my manager manage you, bro? And we can. We can start getting you. Like, we'll start booking your. Let's go. And then it was one of those things where he started booking stuff and he started doing his own show, selling out himself. Wow. And then this year, like, the. Like, the beginning, I think December, January, we were like, hey, dude, like, should we just tour together? Should we do it? He was like, it. So it's Duno's World. And then I had Perito's only, so.
