there on the road. Problematic World tour is going on.
How have how the show has been for you?
Speaker 7 (04:07):
They have been unreal, man, We've crossed off some real milestones.
Recently we did six shows at Radio City Music Hall. Wow, unbelievable.
I mean doing one show that would have been a
dream come truck. That was amazing. We just did my
first arena shows. We did five shows at Mohegan Sun
Arena in Connecticut, which broke the record there. That's awesome
shows by a comedian, which at first I was really
(04:27):
flattered by, and then I realized, oh, it's pretty obvious.
Most comics are just smart enough to not do that
many shows.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
No good for you, what market? No, But that means
the demand is there? All right, man, Hang tight for
a second. A lot to talk about, but first more music.
Getting back to matt rive. Who's on zoom with us?
Mario Lopez here talking about your Problematic World Tour? Now,
when you're traveling, are you a boss or how many
people you're rolling with.
Speaker 7 (04:51):
Yeah, I've got tour but I have two tour buses.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Dude, you're like the rolling Stones over here.
Speaker 7 (04:56):
Oh dude, it's ridiculous and not what anybody thinks. It's
just me and my boys on the bus and people
are like, oh, you guys got to be throwing parties
on that. Bet there's just rugs, ever do It's just
just smoking weed and fast food and playing video games
till five in the morning.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Damn. That sounds like a good time though.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
So it's not bad.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
It's not bad. I bet.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Now, when you're on the road for this long, like,
what's the packing situation? Because whenever I travel, I get
like anxiety when I have to pack more than anything
that will not fit in a carry on. But I
guess when you have a bus you can you can
kind of a little more room. Yeah, right, exactly. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (05:34):
It's well, not to rub it in their faces, but
I have like the master bedroom in the bathroom bus obviously,
while while my friends all sleep in their mausoleum walls, right,
I have like a full walk in closet. Oh nice,
they all share one bunk to like as their storage.
I am months with of clothes. But I come back
here to La to pop in for press stuff so
(05:55):
often I'd come back here everything I've worn, but I've
like worn in a video that's going viral. I'm like, well,
got to get rid of that. I'll come back here
and just switch it out for all through wardrobe. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I like that move right there.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
All right, Matt Haintach, take a quick break. Come back
more with comic Matt.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
You're Mario Lopez and Matt.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I know a lot of fans have been making you
cookies and drawing pictures. Oh yeah, you've gotten anything a
little out of the ordinary.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
Somebody bought my hat off off my head on stage
of the day for one thousand dollars, and then I
tried to buy meth with it in Minneapolis. Oh but officially, yeah,
there was a forcefully retired dealer in the audience, right right.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
That's funny, man, that's funny. I'm gonna play a few
more songs and we have more with that.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Right on.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Mario Lopez talking stand up comedy with Matt rife and
in May. I'm moving forward to this because I'm planning
to be there. The Netflix is a joke festival going
down at the Hollywood Bowl that is one of my
all time favorite venues. It's so cool. Have you had
an opportunity to perform there?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
This here first time even been?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Oh, it's so cool, Matt. You're gonna love it, man,
because in the summertime, it's beautiful. It's like nestled up
in the Hollywood Hills. Thousands of people. You see the lights.
They're smoking and drinking because you could drink, drink and
smoke out that that's like your boss. It's like your
bus but outside and it goes. It's so much fun.
You are gonna love it. What do you got planned
(07:23):
for that?
Speaker 7 (07:24):
I'm working on a musical act too that I can't
disclose as of yet, to potentially really just in the
show with a grand finale. If I can't get them,
I am gonna need you and your family to do
some TikTok dance.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
That's what's up. Want Mario, Hey, the lout passes have
your back.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
Your walk doesn't go unnoticed. I'm excited for I wanted.
I wanted to feel like like an intimate festival. It's
turned a six a sixteen thousand seat venue into an
intimate hangout. I'm gonna have a bunch of my friends
come and open the show for me. It's gonna be
a great show from start to finish. And I just
did the Dolby Theater. I think it was six shows
just a couple of months ago. And for the people
(08:01):
who may have been there for that, thank you. It
was an incredible experience, dream come true. And it's already
a brand new show, so you don't have to worry
about coming to see the same jokes.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Repeated, Oh fun, oh fun, How I'm looking forward to

Speaker 2 (08:25):
You're gonna be performing an Abu Dhabi now, yes, have
you done much outside of the States, Like how are
the audiences different or how is their response to your
material outside of the US?
Speaker 7 (08:38):
Oh Man, so far, the US is the least fun
to perform in.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
That's great, not just.
Speaker 7 (08:46):
The cultural differences, but like just the freedom of comedy.
Like we people in the States about comedy more than
any other country around the world.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
You're just complaining it's so ridiculous, and you're right out.
It must be refreshing to get out of those states
and to be able to just people know how to
take a joke and they take it for what it is.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Oh yeah. I was just in Australia at the beginning
of this year for January. We were there for two
and a half weeks. It was three weeks maybe the
show's out. There was my first time being that I'd
always heard in the comedy community that Australia had like
the best comedy audiences in the world, which also that's
pretty high title to give.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (09:24):
I got down there and I was like, dog, I
wish I would have waited to shoot my next special there.
It was unbelievable, Like nobody feels that they have to
make the show about themselves. No one's getting offended by anything.
Everyone is just there. They're in with the joke, they're
on board, they're aware of the context and the environment,
and they.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Have a sense of humor.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Oh yeah.

really cool because it's all about how music takes us places.

and immediately it'll transport me to that time. I don't
think anything else does that other than a good song.

No, music is so important. The story follows Harriet, who
experiences a unique connection between art and reality, discovering that
specific songs have the power to transport her back in time,
driving her to relive special moments with her ex special
but all the time traveling collides with the potential new
love interest in the present.

the mysterious connection between music and memory.

take me right back. I don't know why it popped
into my head, but Johnny Camps just got paid. Took
me back to elementary school as one of my first
school dances.

cool and we're having like a dance and it was
just such.

Speaker 7 (04:07):
They have been unreal, man, We've crossed off some real milestones.
Recently we did six shows at Radio City Music Hall. Wow, unbelievable.
I mean doing one show that would have been a
dream come truck. That was amazing. We just did my
first arena shows. We did five shows at Mohegan Sun
Arena in Connecticut, which broke the record there. That's awesome
shows by a comedian, which at first I was really
(04:27):
flattered by, and then I realized, oh, it's pretty obvious.
Most comics are just smart enough to not do that
many shows.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
No good for you, what market? No, But that means
the demand is there? All right, man, Hang tight for
a second. A lot to talk about, but first more music.
Getting back to matt rive. Who's on zoom with us?

when you're traveling, are you a boss or how many
people you're rolling with.

Yeah, I've got tour but I have two tour buses.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Dude, you're like the rolling Stones over here.
Speaker 7 (04:56):
Oh dude, it's ridiculous and not what anybody thinks. It's
just me and my boys on the bus and people
are like, oh, you guys got to be throwing parties
on that. Bet there's just rugs, ever do It's just
just smoking weed and fast food and playing video games
till five in the morning.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Damn. That sounds like a good time though.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
So it's not bad.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
It's not bad. I bet.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Now, when you're on the road for this long, like,
what's the packing situation? Because whenever I travel, I get
like anxiety when I have to pack more than anything
that will not fit in a carry on. But I
guess when you have a bus you can you can
kind of a little more room. Yeah, right, exactly. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (05:34):
It's well, not to rub it in their faces, but
I have like the master bedroom in the bathroom bus obviously,
while while my friends all sleep in their mausoleum walls, right,
I have like a full walk in closet. Oh nice,
they all share one bunk to like as their storage.
I am months with of clothes. But I come back
here to La to pop in for press stuff so
(05:55):
often I'd come back here everything I've worn, but I've
like worn in a video that's going viral. I'm like, well,
got to get rid of that. I'll come back here
and just switch it out for all through wardrobe. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I like that move right there.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
I know a lot of fans have been making you
cookies and drawing pictures. Oh yeah, you've gotten anything a
little out of the ordinary.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
Somebody bought my hat off off my head on stage
of the day for one thousand dollars, and then I
tried to buy meth with it in Minneapolis. Oh but officially, yeah,
there was a forcefully retired dealer in the audience, right right.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
That's funny, man, that's funny. I'm gonna play a few
more songs and we have more with that.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Mario Lopez talking stand up comedy with Matt rife and
in May. I'm moving forward to this because I'm planning
to be there. The Netflix is a joke festival going
down at the Hollywood Bowl that is one of my
all time favorite venues. It's so cool. Have you had
an opportunity to perform there?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
This here first time even been?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Oh, it's so cool, Matt. You're gonna love it, man,
because in the summertime, it's beautiful. It's like nestled up
in the Hollywood Hills. Thousands of people. You see the lights.
They're smoking and drinking because you could drink, drink and
smoke out that that's like your boss. It's like your
bus but outside and it goes. It's so much fun.
You are gonna love it. What do you got planned
(07:23):
for that?
Speaker 7 (07:24):
I'm working on a musical act too that I can't
disclose as of yet, to potentially really just in the
show with a grand finale. If I can't get them,
I am gonna need you and your family to do
some TikTok dance.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
That's what's up. Want Mario, Hey, the lout passes have
your back.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
Your walk doesn't go unnoticed. I'm excited for I wanted.
I wanted to feel like like an intimate festival. It's
turned a six a sixteen thousand seat venue into an
intimate hangout. I'm gonna have a bunch of my friends
come and open the show for me. It's gonna be
a great show from start to finish. And I just
did the Dolby Theater. I think it was six shows
just a couple of months ago. And for the people
(08:01):
who may have been there for that, thank you. It
was an incredible experience, dream come true. And it's already
a brand new show, so you don't have to worry
about coming to see the same jokes.
Speaker 2 (08:09):

Speaker 2 (08:25):
You're gonna be performing an Abu Dhabi now, yes, have
you done much outside of the States, Like how are
the audiences different or how is their response to your
material outside of the US?
Speaker 7 (08:38):
Oh Man, so far, the US is the least fun
to perform in.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
That's great, not just.
Speaker 7 (08:46):
The cultural differences, but like just the freedom of comedy.
Like we people in the States about comedy more than
any other country around the world.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
You're just complaining it's so ridiculous, and you're right out.
It must be refreshing to get out of those states
and to be able to just people know how to
take a joke and they take it for what it is.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Oh yeah. I was just in Australia at the beginning
of this year for January. We were there for two
and a half weeks. It was three weeks maybe the
show's out. There was my first time being that I'd
always heard in the comedy community that Australia had like
the best comedy audiences in the world, which also that's
pretty high title to give.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (09:24):
I got down there and I was like, dog, I
wish I would have waited to shoot my next special there.
It was unbelievable, Like nobody feels that they have to
make the show about themselves. No one's getting offended by anything.
Everyone is just there. They're in with the joke, they're
on board, they're aware of the context and the environment,
and they.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Have a sense of humor.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
The UK was fantastic, like English crowds are amazing, even Ireland.

doing UFC in the night right before.

Searchlight Pictures The Greatest Hits, which is streaming on Hulu
right now, so you can check it out. And movies
really cool because it's all about how music takes us places.
I've always said that I can hear a certain song
and immediately it'll transport me to that time. I don't
think anything else does that other than a good song.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
No, music is so important. The story follows Harriet, who
experiences a unique connection between art and reality, discovering that
specific songs have the power to transport her back in time,
driving her to relive special moments with her ex special
but all the time traveling collides with the potential new
love interest in the present.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Oh oh.

The Greatest Hits is all about love, loss, fate, and
the mysterious connection between music and memory.

So many songs I can just hear right now, It'll
take me right back. I don't know why it popped
into my head, but Johnny Camps just got paid. Took
me back to elementary school as one of my first
school dances.

cool and we're having like a dance and it was
just such.

even read for the role with George Lucas before his murder.
The role eventually went to Samuel L.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Jackson.
