You have a one man show, The New York Story.

And one of your points is you feel New York has changed.

and New York has changed because there's no characters,

'cause people are afraid to say anything, you know,

obviously in the climate we live in in the country.

So the New York, a construction worker sees a girl walking

by now, he's like, hey, look at that strong

And, uh, yeah, watching men yell at the players.

Hey, ump you're crazy, no offense to anyone

with mental illness in their families. (laughing)

And, but L.A., so New York has lost its... the whole point

of New York was, the whole world wants to be tolerant,

Not New York, and of course, Boston is the other.

I'll talk about L.A. in one second, let me just side

back to Boston, 'cause I was in Boston and I realized it's

the only place, everywhere else, like, oh, you know,

who's from here, this person from Mad Men,

Boston, they're like hey, Ben Affleck's from here, huh?

My friend knocked over his coffee, he didn't do anything.

He's a, and you know, Marky Mark, my cousin beat the piss

I'm from Boston, and that is exactly how they are.

I went to the, I told this story before, but I showed

up at Logan Airport, and I'm walking, there's a long line

to get in the taxi cab, and I'm walking towards the back

of the line, like I got my suitcase and I'm going to go-

Like Irish people, going to jump the line.

Yeah, and I'm walking with my suitcase towards the back

of the line, and before I can even get to the back

of the line, the guy running the line goes like, hey,

I'm like, I'm not in the movies, and I was heading,

and the whole line looks at him like, what is

like, don't think you're getting too big.

But the thing about L.A., L.A. when I was first here

in the eighties, back the eighties, and um, it was,

it had its mojo, somewhere in the course of technology,

you let those nerds in Northern California start

to shame you, where you guys feel, instead of being

the hedonist that you are, you start going, we have

to be smart too, and suddenly they're trying

to be intellectuals, they, you know, L.A.'s getting

You guys are beautiful, just sit by the pool

in the lounge chair, that's your job. (laughing)

And now look, the water, the drinking, you think

they're gonna send the water back down when you guys are

just starving to death, spitting on your lawn?

That place was supposed to be your mini-bar.

You run up there, you got drunk in Napa Valley,

And now they, you know, you gotta go up there

and beg some 25 year old nerd for ten million dollars

cause, you know, he invented an app where you can have sex

and find the best fro-yo place in- (laughing)

You don't know what the hell you're talking about

There's no app where you get sex and the best fro-yo place.
