#1755 - Tony Woods

SPEAKER_2 (0:04)

The Joe Rogan Experience.

Joe Rogan (0:13)

You gonna try to do the hat and the earphones? How are you gonna work this?

Tony Woods (0:17)

Cause it's bad now, see it's Christmas.

I can't go get a haircut, like all of this. I got the shadow.

Joe Rogan (0:24)

All you need is a mirror when you're doing your hair. I cut my own hair.

So you go somewhere and get your hair shaved?

Tony Woods (0:31)

It's just, I don't know, I guess it's just walking in, hey, what's up, Tony, how you been, man? Where your next show at?

Yeah, it's that.

Joe Rogan (0:40)

It's a social thing, yeah, yeah. I'm anti-social in that way. I'd just rather shave my own head.

SPEAKER_5 (0:45)

So you really know Joe Rogan?

Tony Woods (0:47)

And what? Like, you know, you do all of that.

Joe Rogan (0:52)

Well, that is the good thing about barbershops, the male beauty salon, dudes get to hang out, be dudes. When did you start shaving your head?

Tony Woods (1:02)

It was a slow progression, cause I would say, yo, just even it out where it's fading away in the little sunroof back there. And then after a while, my man said, yo.

Joe Rogan (1:14)

It's over.

SPEAKER_6 (1:15)

It's over, man.

Tony Woods (1:17)

Just rock a ball in here, make it be like Damon Wayans.

Joe Rogan (1:19)

Yeah. You want to be like Tony Woods.

Tony Woods (1:24)

Yeah, and then he cut it all off, like, I guess.

Joe Rogan (1:27)

Well, it's just part of being old, my friend. We have to break. How old are you now?

Tony Woods (1:31)

58

Joe Rogan (1:32)

I'm 54 It happens, creeps up on ya.

Tony Woods (1:36)

And I remember the last show that we did.

Joe Rogan (1:39)

Where was it?

Tony Woods (1:40)

It was in the Bronx. It was at a college, right? And whenever somebody's ripping, I just, cause I don't want to watch and it get in my head, you know? And some comedians think, oh, you didn't see my set? I got it, I don't want to watch your set, though. And you up there, you like, ah!

You were doing something about girls who sound like a cockatoo.

Joe Rogan (2:04)

Oh, I was, you know, it was girls with crazy big hair.

SPEAKER_5 (2:07)

And you was like, ah!

Tony Woods (2:09)

And they was screaming, I'm like, I gotta go outside. I don't know what he talking about, but I gotta go outside.

Joe Rogan (2:16)

The Bronx, huh? A college in the Bronx.

SPEAKER_5 (2:19)

Yeah, it was.

Joe Rogan (2:20)

Man, I don't even remember that. If somebody asked me, did you ever do a college in the Bronx, I'd be like, nah.

Tony Woods (2:23)

Yeah, it was right on the one and the nine.

Joe Rogan (2:25)

Yeah.

Tony Woods (2:26)

Yeah, it's me, you, I can't remember, but I just remember you, you like, ah! Going back and forth, I'm like, I don't know. And they was screaming, I'm like, okay, I don't know what that joke is, but I gotta get out of here.

Joe Rogan (2:43)

I gotta get out of there if someone's bombing too. I can't watch that.

Tony Woods (2:46)

Yeah, that is, yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:48)

That fucks with my head, because then I think nothing's funny.

Tony Woods (2:51)

But I guess, because I done got, been in the game, I can bomb gracefully, you know what I'm saying? Like my engines go out.

Joe Rogan (2:59)

Right.

Tony Woods (3:02)

Yeah, just glide in, and that'll mess up the next guy, because the next guy come and go, what you do to the room, man? Man, I peed on the floor, shorty.

Joe Rogan (3:15)

There's some bombings, though, where it's the crowd, like the crowd is just whatever it is, there's no energy in the room. But there's some bombings, it's the comedian.

And when it's the comedian, I gotta get out of there. If it's the crowd, I'm like, I wanna go up there and wake them up. But if it's the comedian, there's something in my head that's like nothing is funny. Like I can't watch someone that's terrible.

Tony Woods (3:38)

Because some guys, they, you know like, I call it like a technician. Like this is the formula, this is how you do it, right? And like dude, obviously that's not working tonight, right? Yeah, do a little crowd work, do this, do that, right? Yeah, it's something. Mix it up, man, because they're not known.

Joe Rogan (3:58)

Well, don't you think that's the beauty of doing a bunch of different places? Like doing the road a little bit in Pennsylvania, you do a gig in Florida, you do a little this, you do a little that, and the more you do that.
