Joe Rogan talks to Neal Brennan about Bill Cosby. Neal also tells a few weird stories about his interactions with Cosby. Taken from Joe Rogan Experience #1053:
My dad had a Bill Cosby story. My dad was a paramedic and after he retired from the Chicago Fire Department he worked as an emergency medic on film sets all though the 90’s. They were filming something with Bill and it was a really hot day. A young woman on set was having a really hard time with the heat. She was a light skinned black woman, that detail is relevant to the story. It got to a point where her reaction to the heat was potentially harmful and she really needed to cool off. The closest place they could find for her with air conditioning happened to be Bill Cosby’s limousine. Well, Bill caught her in there and was not cool about it. He sits down, calm and quiet and starts with, “Do you know how much money I make?” He then calmly berates her, saying he makes more money than her, or anyone in her family will ever make in their entire life. That the only reason she thought it was ok for her to do what she did was because her and her whole family was poor ghetto trash, and that’s why she didn’t know any better. That she was only here, and everything she achieved in life was because of her looks. Mind you, my dad put her in that limo to cool off due to a medical emergency. Bill went on like that, just tearing her to pieces, and wouldn’t let her say a single thing in her defense. He made her cry. He didn’t like that either, and then went off about that. Just completely taking this girl apart. I don’t know if my dad heard Bill say all this or if he was told after the fact. The way he told the story sounds like he actually heard Bill say all this. As a result he would never watch anything that had Bill Cosby in it. He had a ton of stories like that.
I can believe it. I'm from Philly, Bill Cosby's hometown and most of us know that he was a mean and arrogant man. I guess he forgot at one time he was poor and lived in the Richard Allen projects in North Philly.
Most rich people are mean, where's the rape? All y'all bozos want to say he's sick with no proof. All you can prove is that he's mean. Well I'm mean too and I would have had a problem with her ass in my limo too
Watching Neal in this video is like in a movie where a person's drink has been poisoned and they keep almost drinking it but then not taking the sip at the last minute.
When I was younger I worked in the parking lot for Sixers games and Cosby and his son would frequently show up. We were told to just let him in, no charge. He was extremely condescending to us, but I always assumed it was because we were the lowly kids working the lot. Dr. J on the other hand was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He’d actually engage with us.
I met Dr J at a sixers basketball camp, he just came to watch his nephew play who was also in the camp. I was sitting down the the row on the same bench watching the game waiting for my next game. He actually started talking to me and other players before anyone said a word to him. The coaches told us not to bother him so we didn't but he started conversations with us, asked us where we were from and stuff like that. Super awesome dude and will forever be my favorite 76er.
@@aaronf8136 Very true. When the Arnie scandal broke, there was an article I read that advised rich housewives to hire attractive domestic staff, because beautiful women are much more likely to turn down a guy's advances than average or ugly women, plus the husband will be less likely to think that he has a shot with her.
I have a “why would Bill Cosby do that” story. I worked at a dinner theater where he was performing and before his show he saw me and walked behind the bar and asked me what I wanted to drink I told him a Diet Coke and he said you’ll have a gin and tonic and proceeded to make me one. I did not drink it. He was so creepy its hard to describe. All I can say is he seemed like somehow evil had him transformed the exact opposite of that character that he always played. I was freaked out the way he looked at me it was a very “dark look”. Not sexual, it went beyond that like he was dead inside and determined to do and get whatever he wanted. He didn’t give a shit. I was a bug on the sidewalk.
....my grandmother who passed away in the mid 70's ...used to talk about Bill Cosby flirting heavy with her at a Casino in Reno...she was in her sixties at the time...I always assumed she was exaggerating and/or Cosby was clowning her...not so much now...I seem to recall she said he offered to buy her a drink...she was a teetotaler...
@@anarchorepublican5954 My great-uncle was a bit of a con man. He saw Bill Cosby in a casino one time. He went up to Bill and pretended like he knew him and Bill Cosby fell for it and my great-uncle proceeded to "Borrow" $10,000 from him he told Cosby that he was having a hard time at the poker table and that he was down ten Grand and would he mind floating him and Cosby fell for it
Sounds about right. If I can remember some more of the story a little bit better as my father told it to me a long time ago he knew that Cosby wouldn't know his name not really having ever met him before and he used that fact to make Cosby feel embarrassed and at a loss. He used it as leverage against him in the conversation the way that a conman would know how to do in order to make him feel an obligation when asked to borrow the money. Cosby wound up handed the funds over to my father's uncle. I forgot to mention that this took place most likely in the 1970s possibly the late sixties. So $10,000 then is a lot more than $10,000 now, he really gave it to the Huckster
My mom told me she met Cosby at a hotel, and he asked her to play tennis. She said no because she didn't have a raquet. I couldn't believe it! I told her she should have bought one... After everything came out, I told her I was really happy she didn't play tennis with him.
I think Cosby's wife was in on it too. The level of smugness she displayed when this came out should set off alarm bells for all thinking women. She acted like she was his Handler.
Yeah, the story he tells about how Cosby spoke to him makes sense. My dad was a background singer and voice actor and my aunt was a background singer and acted in a number of movies, probably the most famous being newsies, and they were both Hollywood mainstays for about 7 years, they both met Cosby on separate occasions and both said he was the rudest, most blatantly racist person they ever met in Hollywood.
@@ileensosa4406 you're defending a serial rapist. Btw, Cosby isn't an African. Homeboy wasn't born in Africa. He never was a citizen of any African nation. Real brain genius hours.
@@ileensosa4406 exactly, America has become so stupid its ridiculous. Its like social media has dumb the ppl down so much that the oppressed opinions are judged by the oppressing ppl as racist smfh Ironic
Just because the movie's a turd doesn't mean a producer was bad, producers don't have as much to do with the artistic/creative side, they aren't the writer/director/actors.
It made money for a bunch of actors and their unions and associations🤷🏻♂️ and was a great write off for a few companies that financed it. When a producer is successful is because it produced a way to make money...quality is not really what they talk about When an actor says it was successful, that's when the movie is kinda good but the company did not make as much money as they wanted and thus producer are fired 🤷🏻♂️
Neal is still gun-shy about what he's drinking. The last time he drank in front of someone he woke up with a rubber hanging out of his barndoor and Cosby asking him if he wanted breakfast.
I am still shocked to this day that there are women out there who think it's okay and normal for older men to befriend them. A neighbor of mine used to talk to me and yell at his wife if she interrupted our neighborly chat. I was so disgusted that I would avoid talking with him and told my daughter to avoid him. Her gut instincts didn't flare up when he told her what to wear??
You had that experience, that woman didn’t. Cosby was partly able to get away with it because of his fake persona of a harmless family doctor. And not just any doctor but an OBGYN.
@@finished6267 I think your being facetious he was actually co creator and co head writer as he was on Half Baked and helped him write many of his stand up bits they were a team
brotherted it’s so BC’s pattern with girls but, yeh, I agree with you. I just can’t think of another title that wouldn’t be considered probably too boring.
"I think it is possible but I do think is not very likely, in my experience with humanity" lol....that statement was so funny and endearing, and Joe´s right away response too ♥
I was aware of Neal Brennan through chappelle but I had never heard him speak until now. Now I have a much better understanding of why chappelle's show was so good
"...I was on the street crying, Mr. Cosby walked up, asked why I was crying and handed me a glass of something and said 'here, drink this. It'll make you feel MUCH better.' LMAO
Neal Brennan is a no talent bullshitter who only has a career because he know how to stroke celebrities egos and befriend them. This opinion is shared by Neal’s comedian brother Kevin who calls him a “starfucker”
@@LeeH688Chappelle Show wouldn't have been a success without him. It was his directing and editing that made the Rick James sketch the masterpiece it was.
My parents met Cosby at a medical benefit dinner thing and he went after their young black doctor friend. He came and sat next to her at their table. They were shocked at how crass he was. My mom wanted to slap him. The girl escaped physically unharmed, btw, but after she rejected him he whispered something in her ear that made her cry and she refused to say what it was.
