I grew up with Ralph, all I can say genuine dude . He’s helped me when I was homeless . Gave me a few hundred . I’ll always remember
That's wassup
Nigga lyin
Proof? Send me the money
Hia stand up is still ass
@@18agarciaable after u verify could u send it to me to get a second opinion
“I’ve been so rich and i’ve been so poor, and I’ve realized either way i’m just chillin.” Ayyy this man got the key to life YOUNG
Lol
Job from the Bible 👌
stay Unmarried if you want this too, can't just chill when u got wife and kids and have to worry about life stuff that need money and time and energy
I've seen Ralph live twice.
He never disappoints.
He's so chill with his delivery, that you don't expect the punchline.
He high ass giraffe nuts all the time
They keep trying to box him into a stereotype, but he keeps showing him, it's not like that. Keep going Ralph. You're showing them our life is not like you think.
Exactly
Yeah Schulz is so annoying in this he keeps trying to be funny or trying to write his own narrative, like just let the man speak and tell his story instead of telling him "his" story ft edits by Schulz
The stereotype shit the cartel talk is ridiculous.
Ya this podcast is horrendous.
I said that too... he keeps telling his narrative and they're trying to re-write...
Man there's VERY few people in his position who would keep it real like this.....He could of made up anything he wanted and no one could call him out, that's how u know he's a real chill dude
Based
It does sound like a made up story tho haha no one would put out there that their family was part of cartel fuck that
@@Cichlidman dawg stop tryna make all of us look like criminals. That shit is not common at all. Most of us are regular civilians
@@slimpskifacts
Lol....bro there's a bunch of people who don't fake where and what they come from.
Ralph is a cool ass dude. I’ve been rooting for him since early on. Glad he’s just keeping it real being himself. Keep pushin Ralph!
How long ago is early on, ive been watching for about a month
Same glad to see him keep rising
@@kingeleven3820 he's been around for a bit
Same bro it seemed inevitable early on he would blow just a matter of putting in some time and looks like it's bout to blow
Early on you mean last year ?
Great interview. This dude is legit. Most people would have sold the struggle but this guy was straight up about his past. Things have been good for me most of my life with a few bad moments sprinkled in. He’s funny and seems to be a great storyteller. I hope he blows up.
The only ones who sell the struggle, didn’t really struggle. People who actually grew up with something heavy, don’t need to talk about because they usually consider themselves luckier than others who had it worse.
Naw this guys bullshit
This guy is going to be top 5 very soon. His first special shook the comedy world and he came outta nowhere. This man spits 🔥
Top 5 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol idk Chris Rock just had a bop
@@John_Fury that's a bop? Rock fell off. He ain't angry anymore lols
His last 2 Netflix specials are garbage. Have you even watched bigger black better or his the Chris Rock show? (not the sitcom family one everybody hates Chris, but his sketch comedy show on HBO)
Lol shook the world. He ight but stop it
@@aleyorch44 stop hating
His uncle watching this video : “yeah, he is a dumb a$$”😂😂😂
Nah he’s getting a big ego boost, people in that line of work, make corridos to flaunt their stories to millions of strangers. It’s never a secret unless it has to.
hes only talking about what he is because his fam already did the time so they cant get investigated for it.. notice when he said ill speak on what i can and wont say what i cant
Seems like a cool dude but man he is not funny.I watched tons of his stand up and have yet to laugh.
@@mrsteel10213 literally 🤣🤣🤣
No doubt…..he’s got a big mouth. But that’s the way of the world 🌎, go on a podcast and spill your guts for all of society to see. 😂🤡🤣
Glad he comes from where he comes from he’s literally telling the story of thousands of Mexican families here in Texas we’ve all been affected by the war on drugs in Mexico in one way or another.. rooting for this man 💯
Go back to Mexico gtfo my country and take your ratty little beady eyed brown kids with you.
That’s how bad is it right now in there??
@@edwardlee3533 It's always gone be a nobody like you that think they speaking facts so in reality you made the dumbest comment
@@inxognito what facts dumbass.? The comment is talking about families affected by war on drugs as if the comic lost land to cartels and such. His family contributed to the distribution of drugs and violence. He wasn't affected Retard. Innocent families were. His knowingly distributed poison to their community to be rich. Fucking Retard
Not just Texas tho, NM,AZ and Cali too. Literally dealt with exactly what bro was talking about, and kinda still do just not as heavy as it use to be:
Andrew asking some great questions man fr! No judgment no preconceived notions about a kid growing up with a cartel family, all genuine curiosity feels good to see stuff like this in todays world
Kid really seems like the next big thing. Perfect humble chill human as well. Hope to see him live soon.
I’m Mexican American and I always fear my people romanticize cartels too much. Cartels will cut down my people like it’s nothing.
I hope we can overcome that mentality. I want nothing but the best for us. I want us to succeed in life. I want our kids futures to be better than ours.
I feel ya dude. But it's not entirely their fault as the cartels do in fact spend a lot of efforts and money into framing themselves as the robin hoods of their country and encouraging legends and mythos about certain drug kingpins. And usually the biggest, and strongest out-spoken voices against the narcotraficantes are the ones that get cut down. Same as how Italian Americans had to deal with the stigma from the american mafia for decades, we as mexicans, or mexican americans are dealing with the same in this current timeline and just hope that it's slowly making a turn for the best for the Mexican community.
The government does the same thing. Until the government changes and is for the people nothing will change. Corruption and greed has consumed such a rich society. Rich in agriculture, rich in oil and minerals, rich in tourism, rich in culture, rich in alot of aspects. Yet cannot grow. Because the people running it ran it to the ground and sold its people
With how many likes this has compared to the other comments it's pretty clear a decent amount of our people romanticize cartels. It's pretty sad and ignorant but what can you do.
That’s the reason many people say they left Mexico. Because of Violence and then they come here and it’s cool
@@mostdefrecords4334 it's not that they come here and think it's cool. It's their parents that flee the country to America have kids then those kids who never experienced sh*t end up thinking it's cool not realizing that that's the reason they were born in America.
As a Mexican American who’s family in Jalisco who have their town under control of the CJNG cartel, it’s fckin crazy how much control the cartels have in entire states down in Mexico.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the closer you get to these cartel power bases(cjng Guadalajara example) it's less crazy as opposed to areas being disputed like the borders and the resort areas?
Its wild. They took over my town Tepatitlan Jalisco. I cant even hit up certain bars/cantinas cuz they set up their headquarters (plazas)
@@i_love_tacos7887 as long as you are not in that life and just keep a low profile, they won't mess with you. The town I go to in Jalisco where my wifes family is from is very controlled and yes very calm. If you get into a fight, there during the fiestas the cartel will come and ask who started it and the reason why.
Isn’t that where Canelo Alvarez is from? They kidnapped his brother a few years ago. I think he had to pay them 2million $
@Sj the problem is when those "safe areas" get hit by a rival cartel then is much worst that the disputed areas.
My are was one of the safest and it turn into a literal hell hole with almost weekly/ Daily killings and shootouts. It's sad no can really be out on the streets pass 8-9 and most Lil mom and pop shops had to close down.
dang that’s y george lopez apologized 😂
This has to be one of the most diverse get together- couldn’t be cooler to see how people come together in the name of comedy.
It's cool until you point it out. You kill the mood thinking like that.
You lame
@@jmara3741 huh? Bro is just admiring the comedian collective. R u okay?
Honestly, I believe it's easier to tell the truth instead of a lie. Moreover, when you're not caught up trying to please others by any means then you can be comfortable in being the authentic you ...
Your saying this like it’s an unhidden script or some shit bro LMAOO
@@memo5230let him then Rock “nothing new under the sun”
@@memo5230 sad thing is, it is a hidden script to a lot of people
The is all true I lived their for a few years, and worked for some ppl that were apart of a cartel and had agents come up to me asking..?s
All the ones in this thread clowning must feel threatened to due to truth and genuineness..I tell you when the fake see it they crumble and start yappin nonsense 😂
Now we know why George Lopez called this man and apologized on some real shit
Yup. Ralph didn't have to clap back at Lopez. Familia let that be known.
Haven't heard of this, what happened? I'm generally interested.
@@josephscarborough8888george spoke on this foo’s name & apologized to ralph over the media
@Mr. By Any Means oh shit. George must have got a call. Just got done looking it up. Ty man.
I hope this is the case why 😂 fuck George Lopez
The interviewer is hilarious, he's always guessing what Ralph's perspective is, but seems he keeps trying to put him in a box and Ralph is like no.
Ralph is authentic. I pray he stays that way and doesn't let anyone take that from him. Shallow people seethe with envy around folks like that. I've seen it.
He's such a chill dude that you wouldn't think his mind is moving as quickly as it does. He's great at improv and working the crowd just like Andrew is. Great storyteller and comedian.
Exactly can see it in his eyes 😂
Lol. That’s how I’ve been described. Even told by one lady when she asked me a question I looked like the question went right through me and my answer proved otherwise. I take advantage of I guess looking like a dumbass to my benefit. Lol
It’s wild to me that he has my sense of humor and we coincidentally have the exam same haircut and style, I know a lot of people that grew up in a Hispanic area can relate to him with his nonchalant mood, but guys like us just let our brains work for ourselves cus we’re kinda lazy and been exposed to this certain lifestyle that we just resort to comedy and a good time. I’m glad I found out about him a while ago, I know he’s going to have a good future and build up material the way he’s heading to
He is borderline mentally handicapped.
Even before seeing this clip, I felt Ralph was the type of homie you would count on in either situation.
Exactly
Probably not too which is why he not in the game
Ralph don’t give a dam about you
you can feel his vibe, what a chill ass dude
The more I see from this dude, the more I respect him.. dude is the truth. Excited to see where his career goes.
The way Andrew had his mouth wide open and salivating on his story is hilarious. I love how interested they are
I just seen that right now lol
Andrews like a gossipy broad 🤣
Because the cartel is no joke brother, its a code. Just like the italian mafia, russian mob, african child soldiers and shit. And so many people love to hear about shit like that, especially americans
@@JayLupe except Ralph’s family just like all of the people in USA ain’t nothing but sub servant mules. They aren’t anything special. They don’t have any special code.
The real cartels and those close to the bosses are in Mexico.
Wypipo get bricked up to POCs struggles, It’s like porn to them or some shit I swear.
I remember being a kid and my parents having a new rental every week. And my friends mom told him they can’t come over, they’re parents are drug runners. And I thought they were just being racist. Then I found out that they were just being attentive.
Crazy.
It could be both depending what state your where in
@@jgarcia2680 Probably. But even if they were being racist. It sucks that the truth would have confirmed their racial bias.
@@kennyjacques5049 that’s the scariest part. “Drug Runners” usually run amounts that can get you double digits in the pen- if you get caught. Seller probably what they found on you (whatever class the drug you plan on selling plays a heavy part + amount)
Doesn't help out of the top 25 most dangerous cities in the world, 20 are in Latin America, 13 in Mexico alone.
You just made me realize why my uncle always had rentals 😂
andrew with the black watch shirt, what a legend
saw like 2 min of his standup and i was sold. i love how educated and humble he is and he is hilarious without being to much of an ahole. now that i saw this even more respect.
I appreciate him being open but also concerned for his safety
He's really safe by playing stupid
Huh
As a 90s kid Mexican American, it's a trip to see so many people giving love to my raza
There was a point where mexican americans dominated the entertainment industry. Im tryna see that happen again before i die
I mean dam were the biggest minority in this bitch
@@onceagaindc no the didn't, it's an industry built by Jews for Jews. Everyone else gets scraps and mocked for it
Fr I feel like we left out
It's a new era brother, one positive thing about this sensitive generation is that they're more tolerant and accepting lol
I can relate to his lifestyle.
It's out of respect that you don't ask around questions till certain situations.
It's not easy having a family with that background and you try to not get involved l.
It's so easy to get into that life when your family is in it deep.
Respect homie you doing good with the comedy.
It’s actually hard even if it’s family, they usually don’t want there kids involved…
9:00 Andrew is on point about Ralph.
Ralph seems like a smart kid that paved his on way in life.
He reminds me of Lil carmine in the sopranos he saw it wasn't worth it and went legit
fck ya lil carmine. i see the comparison.
Dude this guy used to cut hair at the barbershop I go to in Dallas, one day he just wasn’t there anymore😂
He look like he used to cut hair 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
proof?
What kinda fucking question is that? How's he gonna prove it? You guys are so weird lmao
sOuRcE
@@shmurk951dabz let me take a picture of his empty chair next time I go get cut lmao, weirdo
That part where he realizes he shouldn’t sell because he understands he won’t develop any other skill is very impressive and real
?
@@conflict7269 what?
Too real
Lost my Shit when he mentioned Garland,he’s really putting on for his people God bless this man
Usually someone who gets it all as a kid becomes to attach to that life so props to his family for telling him go earn your money
Most of the time in those cases the money is more legal lmao my uncle sold drugs but on a smaller scale. He was easily a 6 figure man with the drugs and his daughter was spoiled but he went to prison for a while, her mom too, and they lost everything. She’s a regular adult now going to college working at a regular job. I think those spoiled rich adults are the ones whose parental got to flex it to everyone without concern.
Cartels are bad and he will pay for it
@FlapJacks & Syrup for sure. It gives people a lot more security to spoil their kids if they think their kids can just join the family business without any concern of wealth ever being taken away. But, for a lot of people who earned a ton of money the legal way had to do so at the expense of being with their families. They feel guilt about being absent when it was a matter of choice or because they used work as an escape.
Many cartel members and Italian mafia organizations have a culture of celebrating and spending time with their families even though their work is at the expense of others.
A hedgefund manager is being no less ruinous to others people's lives to earn his wealth but the road to success in that career is all about working 18 hours a day in the city, leaving your family to raise themselves.
It sounds like the rise and fall cycle of cartel criminal organizations is just more rapid than that of a "legal" criminal and so they understand quicker the best thing they can give their kid is the confidence to know they can always go out and make more money instead of relying on someone more powerful to give it to you.
The only way you can try and prevent your wealth being taken from you whether your business is legal or not is to band together with others who are in the same business and make connections amongst other people with control.
@AT late stage governments act very similarly to cartels, should all of their citizens be responsible for the crimes they had no control over or even knew about?
as a mexican i can tell you mom and dad are always like...you want it ? work for it cuz i aint buying you chet
This dude is a real gem
Gem? How so?
@@LoneWolf-cv6pl he’s really funny an a good upcoming comic
@@LoneWolf-cv6pl shut up lone wolf fucken npc
Everyday im learning something new from this guy..didnt know he lived in same town I do
His story is actually very close to mine. Instead of a quinceanera my dad got arrested LOL. About a year after I got a letter in the mail from the DEA informing me that the phones have been tapped and that they had been listening. Everyone in the family got that letter. They don't have to disclose until after either the trial or a certain amount of time. If he would have kept dealing, chances are they would have caught him. It's a good thing you stopped after 3 weeks.
"I've been so rich and I've been so poor and either way I'm chillin" 💯💯💯🙏 true gangsta
Yeah true entertainment gangster.
@@jayr6777 I didn't mean gangsta like "gangster gangster" I meant true gangsta as in like a good man yk a good guy stand up man
@fjdisksjs don't explain to people bro . Most of us know what you mean. Solid
Dumb hip catchphrase. Nothing good about being a gangster/a
One of the very few people that comes across as entirely genuine right off the bat. Feel like he will go incredibly far if the right people come to realize his potential
He’s not going to be exploited by the “right” people.
I think we’ve been waiting for this interview for a while
Ralph is next up with being one of the biggest and funniest comedians, that's a fact 🧐🤙🏽💯
Stories like this are all too common in several small towns in all border states. Small run down houses for miles and then bam! Huge compounds with trucks, cars, horses, game roosters, a few watch dogs and completely gated. It’s common knowledge to almost everyone in town who’s doing what lol
Growing up in a border city this is so true.. not like it was in the 80s and 90s but that's how south tucson used to be.. slums and then bam a 2 story golden house with statues lmao nowadays they gotta be more low key and move to upper class areas and mix in but back then they'd just build a mansion right there in the hood with a bunch of trucks and suvs and dirt bikes in the drive way maybe a boat.
Eagle Pass Texas is like this in certain areas. We call it illegal pass for a reason
Facts! It’s super common to have an uncle or dad who’s really in the game in South Texas
I’m in West Texas and yes there’s a Mexican family w a girl I went to hs with and the parents didn’t have jobs but all drove Range Rovers and the women had Louis Vuitton and Gucci backpacks at school, every other Mexican family was minimum wage in a trailer
Drone strike cartel cowards
If youre from Texas. Nothing about what he's saying is surprising. Not a fan of Ralph like that, but glad he's succeeding. It's funny the reactions these guys give when they hear the word cartel. It's no secret how much money flows from the border.
I live in Laredo and its the norm around here lol
Yeah it’s funny, for us Mexicans/Americans it’s not a big deal we all probably have atleast a relative working with or for them 😂
Lol! No shit, I'm from the RGV, everybody sold or trafficked drugs. Of course I'm 41 so this was the 80's/90's, but lots of people were living nice off drugs.
😤
I just moved to Killeen Texas and my homies around here tell about Mexican kids that would pull up in crazy trucks and cars and I didn’t believe him
Love Ralph! Interview would be so much better if they would just let him answer, instead of assuming his answers, what happened and how he felt about his experience...
Definitely one of the best young comics right now. Seems so chill, down to earth, and genuine.
Andrew is so interested in this story his mouth is open . Good stuff 👍👍
“I’ve been so rich and so poor Either way I’m chillen” -Ralph
I think this is why this kid is going to be successful, because he’s good either way, he could take it or leave it. And that’s when good things find their way to you.
Love Ralph. Thank you for having him on!!
I think the realization that Ralph had about his family is one many Americans had about their country growing up. You'll always love your family and appreciate what they've done for you. But you can still look around and see some of the crimes they are committing and how veterans are treated vs those in control and decide that standing up and laughing about the hypocrisy of it all is the best course.
Ralph is down to earth and came from the real world. He knows what’s up very humble soft-spoken in genuine!
I wonder how dad and uncle reacted after seeing this interview 🤣 This dude is spilling all their tea!
I'm glad I got to see him last week in Brea👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Keep grinding bro🙏🏽
All the people that say he’s lying don’t know how many Mexican families are actually involved in that type of shit 😂💀
Facts a lot of Mexican families in Santa Rosa CA be having huge nice farms and new Trucks low key in the cartel business
Swear to god just figured out one of my close friends was in that shit, they don’t play but be the coolest people
@@cali7077 na just cuz a guy Mexican and makes money don’t mean they all in the cartel
Dude is absolutely lying. An 18 year old drug dealer would have to be extremely powerful and connected to buy a house. So lame to lie like this.
@@RafaelGarcia-jb3me depends where and when you bought a house my homie bought a house for 15k in the country when he was 18 with money he made selling rocks
This dude is so relatable on different levels good interview man
The level this kid operates on is nowhere near what these guys can comprehend.
I feel these stories and it's funny not watch these guys stumble to react.
You're good shit Ralph. Fun watching you keep them humble.
Diggen that Color way on the Faded Glory Flannel That Andrews wearing in this episode 🧐💯🤙🏽😎
Coincidentally I have the same exact color flannel 👌🏽
Well that explains why George Lopez offered an apology to Ralph. Someone whispered in his ear to back off 😂
Stop it watching to many movies lol😂
@@simplymarvelous4983 movies can’t even show what actually goes on south of the border. Do your research, mexico is no joke.
@@wp8218 knock it off I’m Mexican don’t have to do any research born and raised in East LA got Family from any part of Mexico you can do your research from 😂
@@simplymarvelous4983 East LA isn’t the same thing. Mexico has one of the highest M rates in the world
@@wp8218 I lived in Mexico mostly all killings is between cartel members or people doing stupid shit is not like random murders.
Glad to see Ralph getting some recognition now. I remember seeing him on shorts a 4-5 months ago and thinking he’s extremely underrated.
I love this guy!!! Smoothest delivery in comedy today! Impeccable timing
My new favourite up and coming comic. Hysterical! And such a chill, decent dude?! All the best, God Bless.
i seen this guy few years ago he reminds me of the way i grew up lol glad hes doing good.
I like this guy. He seems like that one highschool buddy who made it big but acts like that kid down the street and is just cool to kick it with.
Awesome😂😂😂 I luv an underdog, go with the flow, figure shit out whenever type of guy👍🏽
He's my favorite comedian as far as the new generation. Dude is real and so chill.
Andrew dam near salivating over this story 😂
He ain’t bragging he speaking truth, can’t knock him for that, I salute that, money or no money he just chillin
Been seeing this guy pop up in my feed, seems like everybody loves him. Happy to see this interview
Does there really need to be 4 hosts? Seems oddly unnecessary
Good for Ralph to be getting great publicity. His comedy is genuine and he sounds like a good guy.
I'm so glad he's getting mainstream attention now! They need to get this man a Netflix Special asap
At First I Was Skeptical About Him Speaking On That But Ralph So Laid Back That It Came Off Smooth Where "Not Too Much But Enough" Said To Get The Point Across But Many Dont Know Many Mexican Families Live And Go Thru This 💯
🔥🔥🔥 respect him frfr straight out the Triple D Dallas keep putting on for the city my boy
Dude. So happy to see this guy making it.
Ralph is dope asf. Im a huge fan of his comedy he's absolutely hilarious and completely original, he's gonna blow up. Looking forward to his first big Special to be done/released and the way hes blowing up ide imagine thats gonna be soon
Ralph is a relatable dude.
I can relate and this is crazy but much respect to the homie 💯
This reminds me of my family. My father was killed in a shootout by a rival cartel when I was 2 years old.
My uncle did 7 years for not snitching
R.i.p hope your are reunited one day maybe. Our father god knows best
Same my dad was killed when I was a year old by people who owed him allot of money.
Glad to see a homie from tha Cliff doing it big.
I don't like how they low key judged his family. Big up to Ralph explaining what he already knows they won't understand
Ralph Barbosa looks like the son George Lopez never wanted 😂
Mann if Ralph don’t get a Netflix special imma start buying dvds again
Either way I'm chillin 😎... no bad days homie
Man I always wanted to get into comedy I wonder which comedy club he was starting at I know we have one in Addison called the improv and I seen him before he started doing comedy cause he was young but looked like all the lil homies there 😂
As a younger brother to three older brothers who were kingpins in the south Bronx in the 80’s . and paved the way for me . I know exactly what he’s saying and how he felt .
100% liar and pussy
O shit Ralph 🔥good to see him getting up there
I LUV HOW COOL HUMBLE RALPH IS SO COOL DOESN'T ACT TOUGH HE TALKS REAL NOT TRYING TO BE A THUG OR ACT LIKE HE GREW UP IN THE SLUMS
Andrew is giving Ralph mad props unlike George Lopez who didn't want nothing to do or hear about Ralph.
Dude is a humble soul, here in Texas we have a great Mexican American community, super family oriented and friendly. The food is 🔥🔥
Nah your illegal cartel members
I fuck with bro fr. He said some real shit.
“I’ve been so rich, and I’m been so poor..either way I’m chillin”
I respect tf out of that.
I just started watching Ralph a couple of days ago , I love this kids demeanor, and he is 😁 😂
Glad Ralph is on the platform. He is funny as hell. Been following him for awhile.
danm filling him ? 😅
@@joanmillan8070 lol
Ralph has great comedy and I never would've guessed that's how he started. I'm glad his family was able to put that all behind themselves.
Great clip
You articulated that to the T! Very true.
this man blew up so fast bro i swear, the first video i seen of him was like a few months ago and it had like barely 20k views, now hes on hbo, talkshows, podcasts etc.
Dude same! I'm so happy for him. It's inspiring to see people blow up being themselves 💯
His uncle saying “este pinche wey que mamon”! 😂😂😂😂😂
Hahaha 🤣
Y Si😅
Lol no Mexican would say that in that order. Learn Spanish
Shoutout Oak Cliff 👌🏽
