00:09What did the horse say after a fall? Help, I can't giddy up!
00:19Wait, there's a joke? Excuse me?
00:25Wait till I start my thing, because you see this... Hello!
00:33I will teach you a little thing, and you will be able to do the thing properly, okay?
00:38What the joke was about again? I forget. You know why? Because...
00:45Oh, a fool, it had to be a fool because I... Come on, look, good night. Oh, Lord, have mercy.
00:54I knew it was going to take a fool. Police.
00:58Lord. Excuse me. What happened here for?
01:07I knew I know it's hurricane season, but you could do it outside and come inside after.
01:14Oh, shit, this man.
01:16Oh, Lord.
01:18When did you do it?
01:19Lying down.
01:21I would live in the orphanage for at least about 15 years or so.
01:25From the time I was a little baby, I'd get my injection or anything in the orphanage.
01:30And, um, I used to think about mommy, daddy, them kind of thing, you know?
01:41Every child was thinking about stuff like that, but when I used to think about that, it never used to
01:46happen.
01:47So I made my own parents laughter.
01:53You see, that's why a lot of people only complaining that they've seen all their vagrants all over the place.
01:59Uh-huh, and people complaining they've seen police at all.
02:02My mother left us in the apartment she was renting and gone her way.
02:09And I ended up living on the streets at around 16, 17, whatever it is.
02:17And, um, I used to live in old cars and wash cars by the gas station to earn a little
02:23money to buy something to eat.
02:25And that's my vagrancy.
02:27That's the first vagrancy time I had.
02:34Oh, God, watch now.
02:37Nobody could feel better than me right now.
02:39Because, you see, when you remember living, sleeping in an old car,
02:45and, um, sleeping behind a gas station by all the gas tanks and whatever it is.
02:51When you remember stuff like that, you know?
02:55And you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you look at this now, you know?
02:59It makes you feel so blessed.
03:02I feel really blessed, you know?
03:05Pick up your toilet paper.
03:09You want it?
03:12Officer, officer, please, you know me.
03:14He's a very respectful man, I think.
03:16The characters that I play are characters that, you know, I lived.
03:23The vagrant is what I lived.
03:25The schoolboy is what I lived.
03:27And that schoolboy is one of my most favorite characters,
03:30simply because when I was a schoolboy, little in primary school,
03:35I used to get a lot of problems from people.
03:38My principal told me, boy, you will come out one big fool when you get big.
03:42The same principal had paid to see me at a certain time.
03:47When I saw him outside, I'd tell him, you're paying to see the fool now.
03:58I don't write jokes.
03:59I write messages.
04:01And, you see, for me to write messages and people are laughing, it's good.
04:05You know why?
04:05Because, you see, a lot of people see themselves in me when I'm on stage.
04:26If it was me talking to me as a young person, I would always tell them, don't give up.
04:32Keep on doing it.
04:37You have to love yourself and make yourself.
04:43As he reflects on a career spanning decades,
04:46Larry is grateful for the impact he's had on Trinidad and Tobago's culture.
04:51If he's really good, you know, my God of mercy.
04:54I never thought I would have become famous, you know.
05:09Because I never had a mother, father, whatever, family or whatever it is, right?
05:12When I got married, I felt that the God had blessed me.
05:15He'd given me somebody.
05:29I'm putting everything that I see around me, social media, stuff like that, in that show.
05:35And I'm making sure that you laugh your belly full for that one.
05:40It's coming.
05:42It's coming.
05:43It's coming.
05:48It's coming.
05:51It's coming.
05:52It's coming.
05:55It's coming.
05:57It's coming.
05:59It's coming.
06:00And look, I'm Larry Joseph, okay?
06:02All you know that.
06:03I'm just catching up.
06:04Thank you for catching up with me.
06:07Okay.
