we’re tapping with the legendary
comedian Wayne Fleming no yeah how do
you take your coffee crisp so you’ve
been doing comedy for over 35 years

since then there are certain things that
haven’t changed the business part of it
has never changed freedom of speech is
getting better okay
I don’t care if you go in the back door
in front door as long as you get in the
house who cares I don’t really think
there’s anything new left
I really don’t it’s all been explored
you know I just talk about my life was
my life was a joke side effect from
viagra if you take one little bit of
heartburn to insomnia you got such a
huge erection you don’t have enough skin
left to close your eyes
as on stand-up comedy you’ve acted
movies like fever pitches Cinderella Man
as love as well as stand-up comedy
you’ve been in films like Cinderella Man
and fever pitch where you actually are
acting and taking on a character but
when you’re doing stand-up are we seeing
the real way in Fleming I’m doing a
character why should I be any different
up there than here I want them to see me
at the beginning of the show
and at the end of the show they go hey I
know him no I don’t have a microphone my
hand on the mic

go on at the first Just for Laughs

experience all the comedians drew
numbers I got number four that’s a sweet
spot Norman Donald got number one a very
well-known comedian and I said to norm I
went to tell you what dude I’ll trade
you and he goes why and I go cuz you’re
gonna pass me trust me the next couple
of years you’ll be way past me and so I
took because I wanted to be the first

accomplishment but is it your best
memory so far the most memorable night
was at the old comedy nest it was my
birthday to comedian friends of mine Jim
Carrey and Frenchy McFarlane friend

up these names that I’m dropping on the
floor here later I got an encore that
night and they came in on the train to
see me for my birthday and I said to the
crowd I said can I do what I want to do
can I do anything I want to do and they
said yeah and at this point people
didn’t really know who Jim was so I said
I want to introduce you to somebody
and I brought him up on stage and said I
want you to meet Jim Carrey well like I
said we’re gonna have ourselves a
nuclear holocaust he did a rendition of
Jimmy Stewart he brought a tear to
everyone’s eye in the room hi mr. doctor

Jim Carrey I think is a great example of
a good friendship how do you two people

friend he’s like a brother and that’s
why when people ask me if he’s changed I
