Interview With L.A. Comic Jay Malone


hi I’m Veronica with watchmojo.com and
today we’re chatting with multi talented
comedian jay Malone who thinks puppies
are overrated it is you’ve had many
accomplishments in your comedy career
but let’s go back to the beginning how
did you get started I’d woken up one
morning and I had this idea like this
dream for a bit that I would do like
onstage yeah like my friend and I would
always watch seinfeld but I never
considered it and so I told him about
this bit I remember we were playing
tennis and he’s like yeah that’s pretty
funny and so then literally the next day
we were playing like video games and we
heard on the radio there was like this
contest that was being held downtown and
he dared me to do it and I called up and
they said we have one spot left it’s in
two days you need eight minutes of
material so it’s like I didn’t have
enough time to freak out I just wrote
eight minutes and went and did it and
it’s funny because everything tanked
except that one bit that I thought of
you know almost like he had a dream type
thing and then but it was just like the
laughs I got from that one bit was just
an immediate addiction only out to me is
kind of like running a marathon and then
right before the finish line you just do
a belly flop on the sidewalk you believe
it just see
and like everybody’s been like a go-go
what did you do that for why would you
you really did everything you just get
out my god I didn’t feel good at all I
don’t know why I felt really strange and
unnatural back then you’re a single guy
through sat often talked about dating
but now that you’re married how has it
changed doesn’t really I’m disgusting I
just you know out of sight out of mind
right so she’s not here unless she’s
right in front of me I’d know obviously
I don’t know what you tell guys getting
married is that you know sparkle in his
eye that little glimmer it’s gone now
it’s dead it doesn’t exist anymore she
doesn’t really that’s my phone that’s my
wife right now and that’s a family guy
song I apologize um yes she’s like she
could sense that I made that joke about
cheating that is amazing um anyway so
yeah so she she doesn’t I think she you
you understand once he did a comedian
they’re eventually gonna talk about the
on stage I think that’s how it works you
think about it it’s a lot like a leg of
a caterpillar okay bear with me Cowboys
down the was squirming around right free
content happy not care in the world I
think it’s wrapped up in a cocoon of
engagement we’re all i can think and
talk about our wedding dresses and plans
and he gets cut off from the outside
world right and the pressure pills to
fill to build until he bursts out of the
chapel a brand new husband butterfly
right yeah then your wife suffocates you
clipped your wings and pizza to a cork
board so that’s awesome you’ve brought
your talent of comedy into animation
Krytos about your projects i get paid
billions of dollars to hit golf balls
okay i’m a phenomenon your kids will
never reach my level chances are they’re
just gonna grow up to have shitty jobs
just like you i love animation i’m
actually addicted it’s similar to stand
up comedy in that nowadays with the
technology i have like complete control
like I don’t have I can do the animation
the directing the writing I do most of
the voices but then i’ll just get
friends to help me do voices so I also
have a bit of a god complex and
uh animation is you can do anything you
can create your own little world so you
know if my animation skills become good
enough and fast enough I’ll probably
stop going out in public and just create
my own universe it’s like my mentor ron
jeremy always says it doesn’t matter
where you’re getting a handjob the
important thing is that you’re getting
the handjob has common he ever provided
you with some life wisdom it’s changed
me a lot like I’ve developed a really
sort of thick shell I think like I was I
was always really really shy and I mean
I was confident in certain things but
not you know not a lot of things to be
honest and stand-up comedy like once you
do that once you get up and I mean your
ego basically just gets torn in half for
the first two years it just gets
stripped down to absolutely nothing and
so like now especially in LA like I go
out for auditions and stuff and there’s
like crazy people in the room that are
like really important people and I don’t
even care it doesn’t bother me at all
because I’ve been on stage where 200
people have hated me and so it doesn’t
matter anymore I would rather make out
with an alley dog can kiss the baby I
don’t even care I serious I am serious
and I know what you’re saying that’s
gross why because dogs lick their
genitalia whatever that’s been
well-documented let me tell you
something they keep that shit tip-top
okay yeah they do err constantly
cleaning that okay if a dog can’t clean
it’s a scruple you will drag that shit
across the floor until it sparkles I
want to take my chances with the dog
well thank you is really great having
you thank you very much I hope my quest
or my answers weren’t too long so I tend
to babble when it’s early it’s just like
it’s like 11 we appreciate you for
coming so early yeah and that’s what I
was getting at I was fishing for your
appreciation which I know thank you
thanks a lot interview
