00:00Now, the story is being flipped totally about the truth and what happened.

00:07That you, that he, that you hit him.

00:09That's what now I'm hearing is word on the street that I'm an attacker now or something.

00:15Why do you think he's saying that?

00:17He doesn't want to go to jail, probably most likely.

00:19I mean, it is an assault.

00:21Yeah.

00:22And at the same time, there are witnesses who saw what happened, but he also has people

00:28who are willing to lie for him as well.

00:30Yeah.

00:31Is there a camera at the laugh factory?

00:33There's cameras all over the improv and that is the footage that we're talking about.

00:38The footage shows Corey Holtam reaching over two people and punching me, punching me out

00:43and my whole head goes back and it's a whole horrible whiplash thing.

00:49It's horrible.

00:50It's like he punches me at 30 miles an hour over the security guard and another person

00:54who's trying to keep him away from me.

00:56Right.

00:57It's horrible.

00:58When you see it, when you see the footage, you, it's going to change your life.

01:02Why do you think he's lying?

01:04He doesn't want to get in trouble slash he just got put on a new tour, so of course there's

01:09money that is going to be made and I guess he doesn't want to lose it.

01:15And then he's saying that I'm trying to, you know, mess his, his career up or whatever,

01:21but it's like.

01:22When, where does this speech start?

01:24Like what?

01:25Where and when?

01:27Yeah.

01:28Well.

01:29And why?

01:30From 12 years ago is more from when it initially started when he wanted me to be his cohost

01:34on his radio show and I flew out here to come meet with him and he got me a hotel room and

01:42then was mad.

01:43I didn't let him come upstairs and he wanted to have sex and I was like, uh, no sir, I'm

01:48sorry.

01:49I don't mess with married men.

01:50I'm sorry.

01:51So after that he had nothing to do with me ever again.

01:55Years later I'm doing comedy and succeeding and now he's mad.

02:01So last June he jumped into my conversation I was having with another comedian in June,

02:10late June.

02:11He said, then I will super sock this bitch.

02:15If anybody loves her, come get her.

02:19Take her away from me right now.

02:21So that was in June.

02:22He didn't finally hit me until December.
