He had his own Comedy Central Presents special in 2005, has toured for years alongside stand-up veterans like Jeff Foxworthy and Ron White; he s opening for Larry the Cable Guy on a national tour through May 17.
And now, along with up and coming comedians John Caparulo, Jamie Kaler and Juston McKinney, Collier is a large part of Blue Collar Comedy: The Next Generation tour; an album featuring the four comics as well as Bill Engvall was recently released. An accompanying DVD is set to come out May 20.
It was fun. It was kind of weird. I d been out over the past few years with Foxworthy, Ron White, and Bill Engvall, and then just over the past year and a half I ve been out with Larry Cable Guy, it was kind of an odd set up. You never know what it s going to be like.
I ve seen first hand the gagillion tickets those guys sell and we just say, Wow, well we ll do our best. But it was kind of off too you know? It was really cool to be chosen to be a part of it and I ve known Bill forever so it was fun but it was kind of odd too.
Yeah, it s weird though too. When I m on the road with Cable Guy, we go to like Canada and there are people that show up with flannel maui travel packages shirts with the arms cut off. It s crazy. It s unbelievable. It would be like if guys were getting chubby and showing up to my show. Hey man, we ve been over eating and drinking beer for like four weeks straight because we wanna look just like you!
I have to confess maui travel packages to you that I used your fantasy football team name idea of Off Constantly maui travel packages at my work, so that when I lost, I could say that my boss beat “Off Constantly over weekend. But I totally didn t give you any credit.
Dude, I ve been out in comedy clubs like in Columbus, OH and the company that makes the shirts for me will send like three boxes of shirts. I had two softball teams come in and buy me out. They were like, Man! We ve got 22 players on our teams and we ve all got to have one of those shirts. I try to be honest with them you know. I realize they have a few beers in them and I tell them, Hey, you can t really all where these shirts. They re all number 07 on the back.
When I as kid, I loved playing little league and then I played baseball in high school and college. Then I got involved in some community maui travel packages service. I got in trouble actually not big trouble but enough where you end up with like 40 community service hours. So I did a bunch of community service stuff coaching little league teams in North Carolina around our college.
I just happened to walk into this school and one morning the previous gym teacher got fired. So it was kind of like, We ll try this guy out and see how it goes. Until we find somebody else. So they hired me on that basis.
Right. That became clear when I left. I had taught for two summer schools and when I left I said, You guys, listen. I think I want to be a stand-up comedian. They were like, bye. I mean what about like in The Firm when the teacher left and they drew a map and were like, This is where he s going, Nothing like that? No keg? I don t get shit, just a, Bon voyage, Sweaty.
Right, maui travel packages absolutely, and that was a problem maui travel packages because I d say to them, Look, man. We re just playing games. And they re trying to take notes. They were like in the fourth maui travel packages grade. They d be saying, No, wait. The intricacies of the game. . . And for a lot of them, English was a second language. They d take a class for English and then the next class they took would be for Japanese.
I wouldn t buy gold no matter what the English lady on TV tells me. The first thing I d do, is blow up OPEC. Every time we lower interest rates, oil goes up. It s like, Hey here you go. We have this great stimulus package!
Then all of a sudden oil is like $106 [per barrel]. You know what else I d do with $600 bucks? I d buy a bike and then anytime somebody wanted me to do work, I d say, Look, man. You fill up my truck with gas or its going to take me like three hours to get there.
Chase Roper is the Internet’s only comedy writing, podcasting, stay at home dad (maybe). His comedic sensibility has been described maui travel packages as bitingly sarcastic. He’s not sure if he agrees with that but is pretty sure that “bitingly” isn’t a real word. You can check out his show, The Stay at Home Dadcast on iTunes and Stitcher Radio.
