@@QueenzKing1228 Yea he was starting to choke up. I haven't dealt with close family death but I know the second my dad dies my life is going to change in a way I cant imagine.
@@barefootbreezy6983 Give him your full attention and love, life is temporary, enjoy your time with your family, unfortunately I grew up in a messed up family and none of that is really possible for me
You can hear his Voice Crack when he said, She was petting Her Hair, it must be Hard to Speak of that Situation in his Stand Up and Not Break Down Crying 😢, Had My Jaw Quivering. Great Comedian using LIFE Experiences as his.
You can hear it in his voice, he still gets choked up talking about his mother, hearing him and watching him choke up brought a tear to my eye....love ya Joey
“... that’s where we’re confused as Americans, we think we need all these muthafuckas. You give me three bad mothafuckas and your finished.” Powerful stuff
Very powerful. He has so many good lines throughout his stories. Btw he did a whole series on these type of stories.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q9xHhygyBEU.html
@@thrift_jacob Yeah. Got me too. I had to go down a similar path to learn that lesson about friendship, and what's really important in life. Like Joey, and probably a million other tortured souls, I wish to God I didn't have to do so much damage to myself, but more importantly , to the people that I should have been the most careful to protect, to get to such a position of emptiness. I guess some of us can't have some empathy, while still being selfish at times. I finally just got so low I had to decide to either die, or abandon selfish behavior altogether so that empathy could be allowed to be my motivation at all times. But boy once that decision is made with your heart instead of your lying brain, your whole world view changes. The shame is still there, but you immediately start to heal and the momentum from changing makes it really hard for your lying mind to get you to do anything selfish again. I figure something similar is going on with Joey here. I suspect that people that struggle with the same issues that he talks about either end up dead, or come out the other side as a really good friend that would die for the people that stood by them.
I've been around for a long while I haven't heard that expression either not exactly. I've heard don't break your arm patting yourself of the back...tappin' is new to me still a great expression.
I feel you, but I bet out of jealousy or just plain Hating ppls in his past would be saying he's fake or he's a liar, u can always count on ppls to try an pull u dwn, HAPPY 2020 STAY SAFE AN BLESSED (✷‿✷)
it's a privilege to be born in this era and know about this man..it's weird how life is so unpredictable..it's wavy and you never know whats gonna happen next. Joey's a living legend.
@@JoeyLeddzDippin94 I saw that one..he should make a movie about his life..take some dope ass stories wit snortin coke, fuckin bitches, doing robberies, experiencing his mother's death on acid and then come up to the stand up world..that would be an awesome movie. hood flix
My wife is in ICU right now. A year ago we drove straight from Missouri to Maryland to see my father in hospice. She did not know I was in the room and I could see her touching my father's hair saying those exact words, that she was going to take care of me and watch over me. How his hair felt like mine. I then learned what the meaning of friendship meant. She's still in ICU and right now I know she's my best friend. I can relate. As a 25 year old and her being 36 I know what real and fake are. God I miss her being home.
Seriously dude.....as soon as he started talking about Z kneeling by the coffin his eyes started to get misty and i was like oh shit, and i followed right along with him......and then he hits ya with the bumps hahaha and i laughed my fuckin ass off. Theres no one in the world that can tell a story like our boy!
Dude, do yourself a favor and start with the "Best of Joey Diaz on JRE" videos on youtube. Trust me. Great place to start. and then check out any of the over 200 The Church of Whats Happening Now podcasts that he does that are also posted on RU-vid.
The way he says that by that time coke had kind of absorbed him is really a testament to what a great woman this was. The fact that she clearly had a drug dependence never took precedent over either her love for Joeys mom or her love promise to take care of Joey. Despite her weakness, she must have been one strong woman before that weakness in every scenario, because clearly it never prevented her from being a true friend and faithful caretaker
@@markmusic5303 he had no choice, it's not easy to lose your mom and find urself in the street with no where to go, as a teenager these things dig deep inside you, i heerd him speak about it once, i believe it was on Joe Rogan, and his voice cracked, it's not easy, i used to be awfully judgmental, now whatever I see no matter how much terrible it looks on the outside i always say to myself there's something more to it.. Stay blessed buddy 🤚🙂
You should watch his podcast and watch the Joe Rogan podcast that he is a part of. He will make you cry laughing and he'll also make you fucking take a look at your life. Make you realize that no matter how bad you've got it it can get better if you make it get better
This made me tear up. I grew up in a street life and it's so rare to meet genuine solid loyalty in the cracks of America. And when you do it means so much. I could see in his face what it meant to have someone like that.
@YoungOasis To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Rick’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes,
Diaz is one of few individuals who can, in the SAME sentence, have the crowd laughing hysterically one second, and then deadly silent the next. A true storytelling genius.
@@thomaspatrickparker6648 People brought up in cities during the 70s and 80s all were. Most of them dead or dying though. I trust those people more than this new age with fake smiles and a neo-nazi/ANTIFA twitter account when they're alone.
@@tpp5151 For sure, but people had to balls to speak their ignorance more, publicly. I knew who to avoid on the block cause they didn't like my skin tone. Now not so much.
Thats every Joey Diaz moment. Everyone knows he has more street smart than themselves. Dude is smart and funny. One of the best storytellers IMO and its all from the heart. ❤ And everyone loves him, he’s like the opposite of Ari Shaffir.
First off, didn't know of Joey Diaz until Joe Rogan always had him on his show but wow man, this dude is more than just a comedian. This was the best standup I have ever seen and its not even that funny of a standup, the story is just so Goddamn good. And Joey is always keeping real. Joey Diaz is a fucking OG
Hamish Finlay the comedy in that situation comes from the contrast between the severity of the situation being rather low and the reaction to it being incredibly over the top...
Hey! I learn Chinese from your videos and saw your Sri Lanka vlog too! Nice to see you here, it looks like your subscribers have gone up 😱 greats news 👏🏼
Yeah, it's sad to think that by age 13 I think Joey Diaz was literally in the USA alone, no parents, no brother or sister, no cousins, grandparents or nothing. Somehow he made it from there to being in movies, TV shows and a Millionaire.
@10:02"Cause you don't need 20 friends, you just need three motherfuckers and you can take over a country" .......best quote by far #madflavor Joey Diaz
"Z had the funeral director by the throat because she put the wrong dress on my mother" - This is the type of friendship energy I need in my life lmfao!!!!! I love this! Joey is probably my new favorite comedian lmfao
Jesus....I have been kind of binging on these "this is not happening" vids.....and this one takes the cake....because of Joey's honesty....his passion, his fire.....man. He is intense. Gotta Love him.
I agree Joey is an inspiration, from the streets to the insight, alot to take in, I've got a big heart but it always seems to allow others to take advantage, Joey tells it straight much respect for the man
My heart goes out to you Mr. Diaz. You've dealt with many hardships in your life and came out a better person on the other side. Despite your bad choices in your younger days, you pull through and are now helping people like myself who've lived through similar situations. Thank you sir for sharing this intimate story. You are an angel despite what you may think
Man it makes me sad that he never talked to Z again. That'd be something that haunted me for a long time, if not my whole life, just popping back in your head when you least expect it, in the middle of the night, first thing in the morning, I can't handle endings like that very well
Yeah, that story really got to me. I live with several similar burdens everyday and i'm doing my best to be at peace with them. I've got one left that still eats at me all the time and I just can't seem to get right.
Joey had me ready to cry talking about Z and his mother, and then at the perfect time he makes you laugh about her offering coke to his dead mother lol.
Man, it’s the truth. I visited my friend that passed in 2001. He was the type. Didn’t matter if it was just you and him vs 100 ppl. He wouldn’t leave you. I love him and miss him so much. I was 19 when he passed. I saw both of his beautiful kids born. He never got to see my son. He was still the best man at my wedding 2015. I’m 39 now. Rip Anthony 🇵🇷 te amo por vida primo!!
joey diaz always sunny trailer park boys man we and my crew we had a bar for 4 years it was crazy times i really wanna start a trailer park of cool people^^
I’m 31, parents are aging, girlfriends think I show little emotion but I cry at night just thinking about how as I age, the closer I get to losing them.
My parents are getting older too and I love them and want them around my whole life I'd rather die and go to heaven before they go because I love them so much
Uncle Joey needs to write a book about his life. It sounds like anybody he would be ratting on has been long dead anyway. Some of us just have interesting stories to tell and are good at telling them. There doesn't have to be a crazy twist or turn or some kind of fight scene where you rescue a princess from a spiky fire turtle thingy. Sometimes just hearing a good story from someone who's good at telling them is enough that we don't even care about the morality or even the ending of the story lol. We just like hearing them tell it.
I teared up when he talked about Z petting his dead mother’s hair while they were alone. Such a genuine and beautiful gesture made by someone who loved another person.
People take for granted how they have someone in their lives who’ll do anything for them. They grow up thinking it’s a given, that “Zee” will always be there for them. But growing up means realizing that that shouldn’t come free. We owe it to our close ones to be there for them. We don’t just get to have someone who will do anything for us; to earn that, we need to be willing to do anything for those we love. It’s too bad Zee didn’t feel that at the time, but hopefully she realized that Joey was young, he still had to learn that lesson, and that he’d become a man who sticks up for his friends when they couldn’t stick up for themselves. If you don’t have a friend like Zee, try to BE a friend like Zee.
Tears, roaring laughter and life lessons all rolled into one = the GOAT Joey Diaz. His mother would be proud of him, it’s not easy surviving without one but he did it.
One of the saddest tales that I've heard. When comics tell stories you never know how much is embellished but his reactions he showed at the most emotional times makes me think those parts were sincere. Good story...
