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 TH-cam.
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.
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.
@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,
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
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.

@@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.
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.

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.
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.
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...
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.
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^^
Sittin in silence for 5 minutes straight after watchin this thinking how good my real friends are to me and how i should value my family n friends more and be thankful for what i have and how i was raised. joey is an artist, cus artists just dont entertain they make you feel shit, and i've never looked at a painting or read a book or heard a song in a long long time that made me feel more than hearing his story just did! I've been speaking out of turn to my girl who really doesnt deserve it, might sound creepy but she's like a sister to me, i need to stop taking her for granted and i will, thank you uncle joey, a poet and a savage!
Joes D brings the 80s back to life. Back then friends were for real. he had beef with 10 guys from 93rd street you go there and risk an ass beating. proper. no choice, that's your friend.
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.
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
He reminds me so much of a few of my “uncles” I’m Sicilian on my moms side and Cuban on my dads, so I had a crazy ass family and once they all intertwined is was even crazier.
"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
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...
without being one of them mad people at the bus stop that tells you their life story, i must say this story rings so true to me, the part when he chokes up talking about zee petting his mums hair, tears me up every time. i watch this every day and it brings me comfort for some reason. That is what true friendship should be. Youd be suprised how many comforting hugs, every arm around the shoulder, every whisper in your ear at a funeral/wake are not sincere.
i've been watching rogan and joey for years... and i always like diaz a lot but i couldn't really pinpoint why i did. I mean he was a thief, a drug addict, a drug dealer, a shitty person, a real trainwreck... but just now, i understand why i like him. He's loyal. He's fucking loyal to his friends and that is a very rare quality in a person. Joey if you are reading this i hope god keeps you safe from any bad shit forever man.
Might be loyal now, but if you watch his stories and podcast, he's practically fucked over every single person that ever cared about him or helped him. He robbed just about all of his mom's friends who took care of him as a kid for coke and shit. So idk if I'd even call the guy loyal.
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.
There are only a few comedians that can accomplish this . . . . .this level of ecstatic and philosophical depth that pulls at your heart strings and leaves you with a smile on your face cause of laughter and gives a tip on how to live life.
Utter tears right now. Both my parents and brother have passed I'm the remaining survivor for my family. This was a laugh and tears I needed. Thank you 🙏

Couldn't agree more. The same goes with food. I fucking hate Buffet's.
That's a huge guideline for my life. Not only friends but with everything whether it be food, cars, friends, or ANYTHING.
When it comes to friends, if you value quantity over quality, chances are you ain't got no friends.
@@joeshmoe6930 facts
Joey tells this story like millions won't shed a tear when he's gone.
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
@onewithmyself is Z dead? I'm confused
You dont know Z though you pussy
@@Blind_Side94 why such an asshole
@@Blind_Side94 someone like z, imagine someone that loved you, that raised you, that cared for you when no one else would.
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.
This man is a straight up SAVAGE story teller. Runs you through the emotional ringer. Can't wait to see him live some day.
That's how to tell a story ... i'm in tears
This touched me to the core. I had to sit for 10 minutes and evaluate my life.
Ellen Peaytt same here! 3 years later lol
Thats a Good thing Ellen he Made you think. We need more Joey Dia'z
I hope he gets back in touch with z at some point
thank you joe rogan for introducing me to my favorite comic.
bro for real!
the world is forever indebted to Joe Rogan! I knew about Joey before but it was thanks to Joe that I fell in love with him and his life story
sup freak bitches
Jared Kelley you're welcomed
Joe Rogan introduced me to my favorite comic Doug Stanhope and my favorite person Joey Diaz
This man made me cry and laugh in the same 3 seconds crazy
If you don’t like Joey Diaz after watching this , you got issues !
@onewithmyself yh, you do realize that 99% of ALL his stories are made up right?
The Basic Adventurerer Proof? Factual Proof
@@sayelaporro Stfu!He's as real as they get!
The Basic Adventurerer maybe. Maybe not. How about you just enjoy it for what it is and stop poking holes at the fun.
He's just not funny. And he's affected. Nothing to do with liking him or not
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.
You can see him start to lose it also. A story full of humanity.
" Son if you can count on one hand how many men will lay down their life for you you're truly rich." Best piece of advice my father ever gave me.
when joey teared up it broke my heart.. this dude is literally my fav stand up comic & story teller.. much love to ya uncle joey
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...
100%.
Joey was about to cry thinking about that woman with his mom.
6:30
100% is real.
Uncle Joey showed raw emotion almost going into tears and choking up with Z talking to his mother for the last time 🙏❤️
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.
Cjmaret well said
The amount of life lessons this man just gave me in less than 15 minutes is incredible. He deserves all the respect for preaching this truth
This is probably the 100 time I have watched this one...the man is a monster-storyteller
Can't express my love for Joey Diaz more. What a guy. May he live forever
Once you start doing bongs hits. Church ain't that bad" is the most ricky thing I've heard outside of trailer park boys in awhile
So true lol
12:45
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^^
@@dimitrisolejak26 Sunnyvale 2.0
Sittin in silence for 5 minutes straight after watchin this thinking how good my real friends are to me and how i should value my family n friends more and be thankful for what i have and how i was raised. joey is an artist, cus artists just dont entertain they make you feel shit, and i've never looked at a painting or read a book or heard a song in a long long time that made me feel more than hearing his story just did! I've been speaking out of turn to my girl who really doesnt deserve it, might sound creepy but she's like a sister to me, i need to stop taking her for granted and i will, thank you uncle joey, a poet and a savage!
Stan Lee Amen
S.P.S. G.E. Oo
“Don’t break your arm trying to pat your own back”😂💀
I used to hear my uncle say that
My absolute favorite person to listen tell a story. Who agrees????
Comedy Central do yourself a favor and get this man a special ASAP!
This is church for me, listening to a person speak his innermost darkness out of strangers
That's a brilliant story teller than can make you cry and laugh in the span of 15 seconds!
Joes D brings the 80s back to life. Back then friends were for real. he had beef with 10 guys from 93rd street you go there and risk an ass beating. proper. no choice, that's your friend.
Joey Diaz is the Master of the Set-up his uncanny ability to disarm anyone with a story or anecdote is legendary and will live forever
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.
bowzer
austin4x uncle Joey is full of shit. Don’t you get it..
He has. He’s writing audio books on every podcast he does
Jesus christ this guy is a genius story teller! Big respect man.
37 likes! Yay thanks guys....seriously when he was talking about Zee patting his moms head he got choked up....good old uncle Joey what a legend!
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
He reminds me so much of a few of my “uncles” I’m Sicilian on my moms side and Cuban on my dads, so I had a crazy ass family and once they all intertwined is was even crazier.
WOW. I'd love to hear a story about your family reunions
Wow, that is a crazy combo. Please post stories....we are waiting to subscribe. Tell the stories and they will come.
"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
Yeah
The way he conveys so many emotions in his stories, I was laughing. Crying, happy, mad, all in 15 mins
I work in a funeral home, and somebody grabbing you by the throat for dressing their loved one in the wrong clothes?
Yeah. It’s pretty justifiable
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...
@@005connect9 really? Wow you must be so smart, trying to undermine somebody's harmless comment with your supreme intellectuality
You ever cold packed?
I read a story recently where the mortuary service cut a tall man's legs so he would fit in a casket for his funeral.
I mean it’s literally the final image you will have of your loved one.
Joey diaz is the best comedian on earth.
huh?
No he aint lol
ramp622 woah woah don’t forget about ol billy red nuts
Joey's the only comic that I can listen to the same story over and over and still be captivated by every word
They broke the mold when they made this man… Everybody needs a Joey Diaz in their life!
a Chihuahua is the best piece of mind. if you hear something and that dog doesn't mind, roll back over and go back to sleep.
It always barks
Daniel Rojo u gota get a mix I had mine for 16 years an he’s so behaved walks off leash even now blind. nigga thinks he a pit bull tho
Fuckin ankle biters man....
All of them shake like they're in Siberia. A 100lb Doberman on patrol sounds better.
It's the ghetto home security for every trap house on a budget. ADT when ya DGAF.
Holy smokes. It's a different level of artform when someone can combine laughs with edification
without being one of them mad people at the bus stop that tells you their life story, i must say this story rings so true to me, the part when he chokes up talking about zee petting his mums hair, tears me up every time. i watch this every day and it brings me comfort for some reason. That is what true friendship should be. Youd be suprised how many comforting hugs, every arm around the shoulder, every whisper in your ear at a funeral/wake are not sincere.
lloydymk2013 truth
Its just people saying what they are supposed to say. It's not genuine at all.
Joey 'Coco' Diaz is the fucking legend man, this is epic.
The way joey describes his mom and her friends relationship brings me to tears
That stark realization when you figure out you got no real friends.
cruhg you find any yet?
Better than being surrounded by fakers
Zia The Nefarious correct
Ride or dies are hard to come by tbh
..
Straight up this made me cry a little. Really beautiful story. Long live Diaz
Joey is the uncle everybody needs
How does Joey Diaz got me tearing up?
Yeah
I laughed and I cried. Really. Amazing stuff. What a storyteller.
Only stand up set I can remember that made me laugh hard and brought a tear to my eye. Truly talented guy.
Never Pryor?
@@Stoney-Jacksman he did less storytelling in this format. I’m sure he could have if he did.
True, me too
i almost cry everytime i see the moment with the kneeling with his mom..
i've been watching rogan and joey for years... and i always like diaz a lot but i couldn't really pinpoint why i did. I mean he was a thief, a drug addict, a drug dealer, a shitty person, a real trainwreck... but just now, i understand why i like him.
He's loyal. He's fucking loyal to his friends and that is a very rare quality in a person.
Joey if you are reading this i hope god keeps you safe from any bad shit forever man.
+gatomaru he's got a very fucked up background, but i feel like "shitty person" is not the one to throw in the mix there
+SK4NE I think they mean a shitty person by today's shitty standards
Might be loyal now, but if you watch his stories and podcast, he's practically fucked over every single person that ever cared about him or helped him. He robbed just about all of his mom's friends who took care of him as a kid for coke and shit. So idk if I'd even call the guy loyal.
Man he’s a special person not to many people can bust your gut laughing and break your heart in a 2 min span
Easily the best one yet. Powerful story right here, ladies and gents. As good as it can get.
I find Joey Diaz to be more inspirational than most people on earth. He talks big shit and backs it up. I love this guy.
idk how many times i’ve watched this video but it touches my heart every time. idk what we did to deserve joey
WOW. Blown away. Phenomenal. Unmatched, pure, top of the line PASSION. This had unbelievable depth. Can’t believe I hadn’t seen this before. Bravo.
i had a Z in my life as well...i miss her everyday. thank you for sharing this story
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.
I love acts like this. Where it's funny, and has a meaningful message and is very emotional.
There are only a few comedians that can accomplish this . . . . .this level of ecstatic and philosophical depth that pulls at your heart strings and leaves you with a smile on your face cause of laughter and gives a tip on how to live life.
Utter tears right now. Both my parents and brother have passed I'm the remaining survivor for my family. This was a laugh and tears I needed. Thank you 🙏
