- 2:02Speaker 1: It, like, as soon as it gets hot, sunny, it
- 2:05Speaker 1: gets hard.
- 2:05Speaker 2: It gets hard.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Yeah, man.
- 2:09Speaker 3: Like a Brillo pad, homie.
- 2:11Speaker 1: So this is how it look, dog.
- 2:13Speaker 3: That looks, dude, that looks so natural, man. That looks actually,
- 2:16Speaker 3: my shit looks like I'll fucking, yeah, like, if I
- 2:19Speaker 3: was in jail, bro, it'd be over, bro.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Over. But without that wig, you'd be the tough guy there.
- 2:26Speaker 3: No, like, without the wig, it'd be over, but with
- 2:28Speaker 3: this wig, it'd be super over, you know?
- 2:30Speaker 1: Like, yeah. He looked like that cousin you have that
- 2:36Speaker 1: he makes the same face every time you make him
- 2:38Speaker 1: go to church. Like you don't believe in God.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Bro, man.
- 2:43Speaker 3: Did you see that video about the priest that passed
- 2:47Speaker 3: away because the Jesus fell on him?
- 2:51Speaker 2: I couldn't watch it.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Did you see that?
- 2:54Speaker 2: I saw the thing, but I heard what it was,
- 2:57Speaker 2: but I didn't stick around to watch the whole thing.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Why don't you watch it right now? Because I haven't
- 3:00Speaker 1: watched it. I just saw that. I thought it was
- 3:04Speaker 1: a joke.
- 3:05Speaker 3: I thought it was AI, but it was real, dude.
- 3:08Speaker 1: That's sad.
- 3:09Speaker 3: That's why I don't go to church, man. I feel
- 3:11Speaker 3: like that can happen.
- 3:12Speaker 2: That's why.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Now you know that that parish was not using the
- 3:17Speaker 1: money they collect every Sunday to do... alterations on the church.
- 3:21Speaker 3: An Ecuadorian priest tragically died after a massive wooden crucifix
- 3:27Speaker 3: fell on top of him.
- 3:28Speaker 1: We have an expert on this right here in the back, engineer. Isaac,
- 3:30Speaker 1: what did Kramer say when he looked up?
- 3:33Speaker 3: Tricio Alfredo Sanchez Molinari was crushed by the collapse of Christ.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Remember the episode of Seinfeld where Kramer looks up and
- 3:43Speaker 1: sees a wire and he goes, oh man, you got
- 3:45Speaker 1: to fix this wire or you could look up. This
- 3:47Speaker 1: thing could blow any minute.
- 3:49Speaker 3: Tragically died.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Did you know the setup, bro? Did Jesus really want
- 3:53Speaker 1: to get this guy? Maybe.
- 3:55Speaker 3: Who knows? I mean, I don't know. I don't assume.
- 3:56Speaker 3: Maybe he touched people.
- 3:58Speaker 2: I don't know, dude.
- 3:58Speaker 1: He passed away?
- 3:59Speaker 3: He passed away? I didn't know that. I was all laughing.
- 4:02Speaker 2: He died to death.
- 4:04Speaker 3: He died?
- 4:05Speaker 2: Died to death.
- 4:06Speaker 3: Yeah. You know what's the ironic part is they didn't
- 4:10Speaker 3: nail the Jesus perfectly onto the wall. They sure nailed
- 4:12Speaker 3: Jesus perfectly. You know what I mean? They didn't nail
- 4:14Speaker 3: him good.
- 4:14Speaker 2: You mean there was something wrong with the way it
- 4:16Speaker 2: was nailed?
- 4:17Speaker 3: He wasn't nailed good.
- 4:17Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. It fell. That's what happened. It wasn't
- 4:20Speaker 2: nailed good.
- 4:21Speaker 3: They should have nailed Jesus to the wall, bro.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Nailed it better. Wow, man.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Imagine the guy that... His kid?
- 4:29Speaker 3: Avenge him?
- 4:30Speaker 1: Who put it together, man. He put it somewhere going.
- 4:32Speaker 1: I needed one more nail.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Fuck.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Dude, I thought he survived. No, but dude. That's like
- 4:43Speaker 3: a big old fucking... That's like porcelain. What is that
- 4:45Speaker 3: made out of?
- 4:45Speaker 2: Like... You're looking at the wrong guy. I don't know
- 4:49Speaker 2: any of this.
- 4:49Speaker 1: I don't know what anything's going on. This is the
- 4:51Speaker 1: guy who.
- 4:51Speaker 3: Nailed them, bro.
- 4:53Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, you're Jewish. Yeah, but I don't know any
- 4:56Speaker 2: Jewish stuff.
- 4:57Speaker 1: He's the one that said, what do you want, Barabbas?
- 5:01Speaker 2: Look at.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Nah, it's fake.
- 5:04Speaker 3: No, it's real, dude. It's on the news.
- 5:06Speaker 1: And it was a live one, huh? They were on live?
- 5:11Speaker 3: They were on kick, bro, live. Jesus. No, they're fucking
- 5:23Speaker 3: sending money, bro. Send money for the funeral, man. He
- 5:31Speaker 3: was streaming, bro. He's like the first priest streamer, bro.
- 5:34Speaker 3: That's so sad. He died live.
- 5:38Speaker 2: And it makes you realize how many priests get killed
- 5:42Speaker 2: that aren't on videos. You know, you just see this one,
- 5:47Speaker 2: but there are so many getting killed every day that
- 5:50Speaker 2: you don't see live on the stream.
- 5:52Speaker 1: He must have said, if I am guilty, strike me now.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:58Speaker 3: It's funny. It's crazy because if he was like a
- 6:00Speaker 3: little bit to the left or a little bit to
- 6:01Speaker 3: the right, he could have survived, you know, maybe like
- 6:03Speaker 3: a fucked up shoulder. But imagine having like a.
- 6:07Speaker 2: And I'm not laughing at the tragedy. This is really scientific.
- 6:11Speaker 1: It is, yeah.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Just a shoulder, yeah.
- 6:13Speaker 3: Imagine the lady Guadalupe following.
- 6:15Speaker 1: You, bro. Either way, he nailed it.
- 6:18Speaker 3: Hey, bro.
- 6:21Speaker 2: Someone's asking, am I Pee Wee Herman? I guess that's
- 6:24Speaker 2: the best intro I ever had. Oh, it's not the
- 6:28Speaker 2: intro yet.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Be quiet. I wasn't an altar boy that day, bro.
- 6:34Speaker 1: That nail would have took me out too.
- 6:38Speaker 3: Did they still went with church after that?
- 6:41Speaker 2: Did they resume? That's a good question.
- 6:44Speaker 1: That's crazy, huh, man? Wow. You're supposed to marry me
- 6:47Speaker 1: this Sunday. Sorry, babe.
- 6:49Speaker 3: We can't get married.

- 8:38Speaker 1: I was on the radio, you know, and I'm there
- 8:41Speaker 1: just to promote my comedy show. So I'm just like,
- 8:45Speaker 1: he's just fucking up promoting his book. I was on
- 8:47Speaker 1: this radio show just promoting, trying to promote my comedy show.
- 8:51Speaker 1: So they start talking about the Elizabeth Holmes documentary, and
- 8:54Speaker 1: I had no idea who that is. So I got
- 8:57Speaker 1: to make it funny, bro. So I said, who's that?
- 9:01Speaker 1: Elizabeth Holmes? Is that the story about the girl who
- 9:04Speaker 1: talks about her father, who the famous adult actor named
- 9:07Speaker 1: John Holmes? I just threw up the whole interview, bro.
- 9:12Speaker 1: And I said it in front of a movie critic.
- 9:14Speaker 1: I didn't know what I'm talking about.
- 9:17Speaker 2: When I did stand-up, I was in San Antonio, Texas.
- 9:21Speaker 2: And they make you do these radio shows to promote it.
- 9:24Speaker 2: No one ever came to a show because I did
- 9:26Speaker 2: a radio thing in the morning, people driving to work.
- 9:29Speaker 2: And I just said, you know, I don't know much
- 9:34Speaker 2: about country western. I know Kenny Rogers, the gambler, he
- 9:37Speaker 2: broke even. That's not bad. He broke even. It could
- 9:40Speaker 2: be worse. I'd get this guy out of here. And
- 9:43Speaker 2: they complained. They said, he laid an egg in the radio.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Who is this guy? And so I bombed like I'm
- 9:49Speaker 2: bombing here.
- 9:50Speaker 3: What club did you perform in in San Antonio?
- 9:53Speaker 2: It was so long ago. I remember that.
- 9:57Speaker 1: The club was in a mall, right?
- 10:00Speaker 2: I don't think it was in a mall. Man, it
- 10:02Speaker 2: was so long ago.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Somebody said Southside San Antonio.
- 10:06Speaker 2: I remember doing my.
- 10:10Speaker 2: So there was someone in the audience. What's worse than
- 10:12Speaker 2: being heckled is they're talking. They're being heckled. You go, hey,
- 10:15Speaker 2: and they applaud. But if only you hear them You
- 10:19Speaker 2: look like a mental patient going, hey, shut up. You
- 10:22Speaker 2: guys hear that? Yeah. You know what I mean? Because
- 10:24Speaker 2: you're the villain for like– so I said– That's a fact.
- 10:29Speaker 1: Yes.
- 10:30Speaker 2: I said, could you tell the security if they don't
- 10:33Speaker 2: shut up, they're kicked out. He interpreted that as kick
- 10:36Speaker 2: them out.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Damn.
- 10:39Speaker 2: So I look like I'm randomly going– I never really
- 10:42Speaker 2: ran into anti-Semitism until that week in Texas. where someone
- 10:47Speaker 2: screamed out, you're doing a good job, Mr.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Jew.
- 10:49Speaker 2: Mr. Jew, would you get your nose job? And I
- 10:55Speaker 2: thought Jews, I didn't know we were a minority growing
- 10:57Speaker 2: up in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, you know. We were the
- 11:00Speaker 2: bad Jews because we didn't go to, you know, temple.
- 11:03Speaker 2: We didn't know anything. So I said, all right, tell
- 11:06Speaker 2: them if they're not quiet, they get kicked out. He said,
- 11:08Speaker 2: get out. And one of them was on crutches. So
- 11:12Speaker 2: it looked like I arbitrarily kicked out a crippled woman
- 11:16Speaker 2: and they're booing me. And, and then, uh, I was
- 11:20Speaker 2: trying to get them back. And, and then when someone
- 11:23Speaker 2: screamed at him, if you were on Arsenio, how come
- 11:25Speaker 2: you could do that? But you can't do this, which
- 11:27Speaker 2: I wasn't on Arsenio. And, and, uh, so then I
- 11:30Speaker 2: walked off the stage and they were going to fire me.
- 11:33Speaker 2: So the manager was trying to figure out what I
- 11:36Speaker 2: did wrong. He goes, don't do those thrill seeker jokes.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Cause you antagonize them thinking you're a bad-ass. The thrill-seeker
- 11:42Speaker 2: jokes was, I drank milk that expired yesterday. You heard
- 11:45Speaker 2: me right. I don't care. So he thought I was
- 11:48Speaker 2: bullying them. All right. No one's following this story.
- 11:52Speaker 3: And you were doing a whole weekend?
- 11:55Speaker 2: I talked them into saying that's an anomaly. Anomaly, Rasa.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Word of the day, guys.
- 12:01Speaker 2: So I don't miss the road. But when I opened
- 12:03Speaker 2: for Felipe, that was so good. Because they were there
- 12:10Speaker 2: to see Felipe. And all the things we did, they
- 12:13Speaker 2: all looked like a McDonald's. Every one of them. Every improv.
- 12:17Speaker 2: They had the same stupid hallway where there's a picture
- 12:20Speaker 2: of David Tell. You know what I mean? The same
- 12:23Speaker 2: back room.
- 12:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:24Speaker 2: It's like a Chuck E. Cheese.
- 12:26Speaker 3: Very corporate, for sure.
- 12:27Speaker 2: Yes. I guess that was a more concise way of
- 12:30Speaker 2: saying what I was. They were all in the same mall. Yeah,
- 12:34Speaker 2: the improv.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Most of the improvs are in malls, right? Kind of.
- 12:38Speaker 3: Most of them are shopping centers.
- 12:39Speaker 1: Shout out to Johnny, man. He's listening and watching his part.
- 12:42Speaker 2: Shout out to someone who's listening.
- 12:44Speaker 1: He's listening from New Zealand right now.
- 12:47Speaker 3: Whoa.
- 12:48Speaker 2: Whoa.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Hey. Tell him, bro.
- 12:51Speaker 2: This is on Amazon. Someone said they bought it. Okay.
- 12:55Speaker 1: Send those to all the Maoris, mate.
- 12:58Speaker 2: Too many big words. I remember I was like.
- 13:01Speaker 1: Not enough pictures. Somebody said about that book.
- 13:04Speaker 2: I thought I was doing good. And this is a
- 13:06Speaker 2: long time ago. Someone screamed out, Lorena Bobbitt. That was
- 13:10Speaker 2: Lorena about to cut off her husband's dick. So meaning
- 13:13Speaker 2: they were being, give me suggestions. What you're doing is good,
- 13:15Speaker 2: but can you talk about dicks being cut off? They're
- 13:20Speaker 2: suggesting that now too. I'm going to shut off.
- 13:23Speaker 3: She was the first one to do a transsexual operation, bro.
- 13:28Speaker 1: You think if that would have happened right now, you
- 13:31Speaker 1: would see like a million more memes and people doing
- 13:34Speaker 1: it on stage?
- 13:35Speaker 3: Oh, if she were to cut a dick now?
- 13:37Speaker 1: If someone were to do exactly what Renna Bobby did
- 13:41Speaker 1: right now.
- 13:42Speaker 4: Oh.
- 13:42Speaker 1: Or if it happened right now.
- 13:43Speaker 3: There'd be challenges on TikTok, bro.
- 13:45Speaker 1: The Renna Bobby challenge?
- 13:47Speaker 3: There'd be like fucking like dances, right? There'd be like
- 13:49Speaker 3: a whole bunch of memes.
- 13:50Speaker 2: You know?
- 13:50Speaker 1: Or there'd be like somebody driving and then throwing a
- 13:53Speaker 1: hot dog out the window or something.
- 13:55Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, there'd be, yeah.
- 13:59Speaker 2: She threw it out the window. They found it. They
- 14:01Speaker 2: showed it back on.
- 14:02Speaker 3: And he became a porn star, right?
- 14:05Speaker 2: He did, I think, or Octomom was a good porn career,
- 14:10Speaker 2: I remember. Very random. I was talking to someone about
- 14:15Speaker 2: Welcome Back, Carter. I don't remember where or why, but
- 14:19Speaker 2: I guess what happened to Horshack, and he fought Screech
- 14:23Speaker 2: in Celebrity Boxing, which is sad. Screech, how much? And
- 14:28Speaker 2: I remember Manute Bowl boxed Willie in the refrigerator, Perry.
- 14:32Speaker 2: Do you remember Manute Bowl?
- 14:33Speaker 1: Yeah, the fridge. Yes.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Boxing.
- 14:36Speaker 1: Oh, maybe.
- 14:37Speaker 2: I'm not, you know, I'm not big enough to get on.
- 14:40Speaker 1: If you were to do a celebrity boxing, who would you, like, fight?
- 14:43Speaker 2: Andy Kindler.
- 14:45Speaker 1: Andy Kindler?
- 14:45Speaker 2: No, I'm just kidding.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Oh, no.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Brian Callen. You know, all right, this is a true
- 14:50Speaker 2: Brian Callen story.
- 14:51Speaker 1: Okay.
- 14:52Speaker 2: I saw, I got confused. I saw Brian Cranston in
- 14:55Speaker 2: the street, and I spit at him. I think it
- 14:57Speaker 2: was Brian Callen. I said, you get me so sick.
- 15:02Speaker 2: And I'll, I'll. You see how I got confused?
- 15:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:05Speaker 2: But it really was Brian Callen, a good guy.
- 15:08Speaker 1: All right.
- 15:08Speaker 2: I'm bad-mouthing a guy that people have to pay extra
- 15:11Speaker 2: on Patreon, and I'm bad-mouthing the great Brian Callen. You
- 15:16Speaker 2: really had him on?
- 15:18Speaker 1: Who?
- 15:18Speaker 2: Brian Callen?
- 15:19Speaker 1: Howie?
- 15:20Speaker 2: Wait a minute. Am I losing my mind in the beginning?
- 15:22Speaker 2: Who were you pushing, saying you pay extra, you get
- 15:25Speaker 2: to see?
- 15:25Speaker 3: Brian Callen, but you said Brian Cranston, who, fun fact,
- 15:29Speaker 3: was also on Seinfeld, and you were on Seinfeld.
- 15:32Speaker 1: Yes.
- 15:32Speaker 3: So it's like the six degrees of separation.
- 15:36Speaker 2: Yeah. So you saw Breaking Bad, right?
- 15:40Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:41Speaker 2: I like how when they had Better Call Saul, which
- 15:43Speaker 2: was eight years later, and we're not supposed to notice
- 15:47Speaker 2: that Mike is like 90 now, and it's supposed to
- 15:51Speaker 2: be before Breaking Bad.
- 15:52Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Oh, I'll never work for Vince Gilligan, even though I
- 15:55Speaker 2: was never going to work for him.
- 15:55Speaker 1: Hey, man, that's the Irishman in that episode.
- 15:57Speaker 3: I was thinking that. The way he's fucking kicking.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Oh, my God. That's probably the worst.
- 16:02Speaker 3: They give him platforms or... Robert De Niro, remember? He's
- 16:06Speaker 3: supposed to be himself.
- 16:07Speaker 1: When he beats up that guy outside that store with
- 16:10Speaker 1: his daughter, how is he supposed to be?
- 16:11Speaker 3: He's supposed to be... He dyed his hair. He looks like.
- 16:14Speaker 2: What's it called? Better Call Sal was a prequel.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Look, the Irishman.
- 16:18Speaker 3: This is a flashback.
- 16:20Speaker 1: De Niro, he's supposed to be like 20, 30 years
- 16:22Speaker 1: old here.
- 16:23Speaker 2: He's like kicking the way.
- 16:25Speaker 3: It's like when Creed dyed his hair, remember, in the office?
- 16:28Speaker 3: But look at the way he's kicking. He's scared to trip, bro.
- 16:33Speaker 1: He's kind of like Pops. Yeah.
- 16:35Speaker 2: If I ever see Brian Callen, that's what I'm going
- 16:37Speaker 2: to do. I'm just kidding.
- 16:39Speaker 1: I'm just making nonsense. Hey, hey, bro. Hey.
- 16:43Speaker 3: Bro, do you see the hesitation?
- 16:45Speaker 2: Was that Sherman Hemsley next to it in that thing?
- 16:48Speaker 2: I was in on that.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Hey, bro.
- 16:51Speaker 3: This was literally 15 years before he got his girl pregnant, bro.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Facts.
- 16:56Speaker 2: What's with Al Pacino and De Niro?
- 16:59Speaker 1: Bro, Al Pacino just had another baby, bro.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Why do they like to have kids at the 80s?
- 17:03Speaker 2: Is it a machismo thing?
- 17:05Speaker 3: It has to be.
- 17:06Speaker 1: I don't know. What's the way for your baby to
- 17:07Speaker 1: come out? What's the way for their baby? Little Freddy Stoller, bro.
- 17:14Speaker 3: I mean, Little Freddy Stoller Kruger, bro.
- 17:17Speaker 2: He had a stroke during the filming of it.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Who did?
- 17:20Speaker 3: De Niro?
- 17:20Speaker 2: Someone commented that. I could be wrong. Martin Sheen had
- 17:23Speaker 2: a heart attack during filming Apocalypse Now.
- 17:26Speaker 1: Really?
- 17:27Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 17:27Speaker 2: Did you ever see that?
- 17:30Speaker 3: No, that's a Vietnam movie.
- 17:33Speaker 2: It's a great one. I worked with Charlie Sheen on
- 17:35Speaker 2: a show, Anger Management. And I got to say, Charlie
- 17:39Speaker 2: Sheen was very professional, knew his lines. And we were
- 17:43Speaker 2: reciting the lines from Apocalypse Now. You know, his greatest
- 17:47Speaker 2: movie in the world, man.
- 17:48Speaker 1: So he was doing a couple of now? Quotes.
- 17:51Speaker 2: Me and him were going back and forth.
- 17:52Speaker 1: In the regular, in the show, Anger Management? No, no, no.
- 17:55Speaker 2: Just hanging out back. Oh. You know, I love the
- 17:58Speaker 2: apocalypse now. I saw it a lot. And all right,
- 18:01Speaker 2: I'm not saying smoke cigarettes. But he was like, you know,
- 18:05Speaker 2: on sound stages 20 years, no one smokes cigarettes. They're
- 18:08Speaker 2: doing Charlie Sheen's hair and he's smoking a cigarette. And
- 18:11Speaker 2: I said, you know, I don't think cigarettes are cool,
- 18:13Speaker 2: but you're cool like the old Sammy Davis Jr. Dean
- 18:16Speaker 2: Martin thing. He exudes that coolness, Charlie Sheen.
- 18:19Speaker 3: He's oozing that out.
- 18:20Speaker 2: I said that to him. He goes, thanks, man. And
- 18:22Speaker 2: I told him, I know Norm MacDonald. He goes, oh,
- 18:24Speaker 2: he's borderline genius, man. He almost won... the million dollars
- 18:28Speaker 2: on who wants to be a millionaire. That's my Charlie
- 18:31Speaker 2: Sheen impression, which the only impression I could do is
- 18:34Speaker 2: Jamie Masada. Yo, man, we got to see the laughs.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Laugh factory.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Hey, buddy.
- 18:39Speaker 3: Hey, buzzy.
- 18:42Speaker 2: All these voting commercials.
- 18:43Speaker 1: I could do a Charlie Sheen impression.
- 18:47Speaker 3: Hey, how's it going?
- 18:49Speaker 1: Hey, how's it going, guys? Oh, yeah, he talks a lot.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Don't call me Carlos.
- 18:53Speaker 2: Don't call me Carlos. Don't call me Carlos Estevez. Did
- 18:57Speaker 2: you know a guy back in the day, Rick Avelis?
- 19:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:01Speaker 2: Yeah, he.
- 19:02Speaker 1: Roches, how you doing?
- 19:03Speaker 2: He was in Ghost, and he was in Carlito's Way.
- 19:06Speaker 3: Is he the Puerto Rican that dies because of the shards?
- 19:11Speaker 2: He sharted?
- 19:12Speaker 1: What?
- 19:12Speaker 3: No, no, no. The shards.
- 19:14Speaker 2: Remember?
- 19:14Speaker 3: And the Puerto Rican guy, the bad guy?
- 19:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Where the glass falls on him at the end of
- 19:18Speaker 3: the movie?
- 19:18Speaker 2: You mean from the priest?
- 19:19Speaker 1: No, he's a black dude. He's the one that kills him.
- 19:21Speaker 3: The Puerto Rican guy, right?
- 19:22Speaker 2: From Ghost?
- 19:22Speaker 3: Wait, wait.
- 19:23Speaker 2: He kills Patrick Swayze.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 19:25Speaker 2: And he was in Carlitos' way, like they're playing pool
- 19:28Speaker 2: in the beginning.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:30Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought.
- 19:31Speaker 1: I'm glad you didn't know your boss died today.
- 19:34Speaker 2: He was a great guy.
- 19:35Speaker 1: Carlitos, we're going to bring this guy. Yeah.
- 19:38Speaker 2: He was a great character.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Did you know him personally?
- 19:41Speaker 2: I knew him, yeah. I knew him from the New
- 19:43Speaker 2: York comedy. One time, I bumped into him.
- 19:47Speaker 1: Rick Aviles, bro. His sister's an actress, too. Shy girl, Ann.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Mi Vida Loca.
- 19:52Speaker 3: Damn. Wait, he was a stand-up comic?
- 19:56Speaker 2: I was a stand-up comic. You wouldn't know it from this.
- 19:58Speaker 3: I know you, but the Puerto Rican homie from Ghost.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Wait, he was a stand-up or I was?
- 20:02Speaker 1: Both of you guys, right?
- 20:03Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. He did street comedy with Charlie Burnett.
- 20:06Speaker 3: He hosted Apollo.
- 20:08Speaker 1: Really?
- 20:08Speaker 2: Yeah, he did street comedy. Hey, everyone come around. And yeah,
- 20:15Speaker 2: he was playing good bad guys. You know, Louie Guzman,
- 20:20Speaker 2: I remember the first time I saw him, he was
- 20:21Speaker 2: in a movie with Nick Nolte called Q & A,
- 20:24Speaker 2: and he played a real bad guy. But yeah. All right,
- 20:30Speaker 2: here's a story why I brought up Louie Guzman. I
- 20:32Speaker 2: just did the same thing.
- 20:33Speaker 1: So you know all those guys from the Lower East Side?
- 20:35Speaker 2: Charlie Barnett, one time I did a job in New
- 20:37Speaker 2: Jersey with him where, you know, they pick you up
- 20:39Speaker 2: and he goes, just drop me off here. It was
- 20:41Speaker 2: like Avenue D and he was getting drugs. So he
- 20:45Speaker 2: just got, you know, in the worst area and he goes,
- 20:48Speaker 2: I got to show him crazy. That won't bother me.
- 20:50Speaker 2: And he started screaming when he got let out. Did
- 20:52Speaker 2: you know who Charlie Barnett was?
- 20:54Speaker 1: Yeah, comedian. Yeah. DC cab.
- 20:57Speaker 2: Yeah, he, what happened was, and I don't take credit
- 20:59Speaker 2: for Eddie Murphy getting Saturday Night Live. He would have
- 21:02Speaker 2: got it anyway, but When we were in Florida, he
- 21:05Speaker 2: was doing the comic strip in Fort Lauderdale right before
- 21:08Speaker 2: he got SNL, me and Eddie Murphy. I said, you know,
- 21:11Speaker 2: they hired the black guy for Saturday Night Live, Charlie Barnett,
- 21:15Speaker 2: but he got fired because he couldn't read. He couldn't
- 21:17Speaker 2: read cue cards. So I said, they need a black guy.
- 21:20Speaker 2: But he would have got it anyway. But maybe Eddie
- 21:22Speaker 2: Murphy should give me some money because I helped him
- 21:25Speaker 2: get SNL. I'm just saying he could.
- 21:29Speaker 1: So you called Eddie Murphy and told him they're looking
- 21:32Speaker 1: for somebody?
- 21:33Speaker 2: I didn't call him. We were working in Fort Lauderdale.
- 21:36Speaker 3: You suggested it.
- 21:37Speaker 2: So I said, hey, I heard they fired this guy
- 21:39Speaker 2: because he, I guess assuming they needed a black guy.
- 21:45Speaker 2: But he was the, yeah, and they fired him because
- 21:47Speaker 2: he couldn't read. He was illiterate, Charlie Barnett. Wow. I
- 21:51Speaker 2: think he would have found dead anyway. Eddie Murphy was destined. Yeah,
- 21:55Speaker 2: I knew him when he was 18 and he was
- 21:58Speaker 2: doing like a Beretta impression of Robert Blake, I don't
- 22:02Speaker 2: mean the murdering part.
- 22:04Speaker 1: What impersonation can you do? You do a dice man?
- 22:08Speaker 2: I could do, did you see me in Joe Dirt?
- 22:11Speaker 3: Oh, you showed us a clip last time, right? You
- 22:13Speaker 3: were the.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Chemistry class. I could do Christopher. Shut up, you hard-on. No.
- 22:19Speaker 2: I do impressions of other people doing impressions.
- 22:22Speaker 3: No.
- 22:23Speaker 2: It's Joe Dirt. I'm not a good impressionist. I'm showing.
- 22:30Speaker 3: When I was in high school, I remember watching you
- 22:32Speaker 3: on Drake and Josh, bro. We talked about it last time.
- 22:35Speaker 3: You're the vendor with the iPads.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Yeah, the foam finger.
- 22:38Speaker 3: The foam finger. Dude, I wanted to be an actor
- 22:42Speaker 3: after that. Or sell foams at the stadium.
- 22:46Speaker 2: I inspired this guy. Wow.
- 22:48Speaker 3: You're the Padres. You worked at the Padres stadium in
- 22:50Speaker 3: the show.
- 22:51Speaker 2: Bobbleheads.
- 22:52Speaker 3: Because in the show, it's set in San Diego.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Oh, is that where you're from?
- 22:56Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, bud.
- 22:58Speaker 3: That was a big fan of San Diego.
- 22:59Speaker 2: What other impressions could I do? I could do Melfi
- 23:02Speaker 2: from The Sopranos. Tony, do you think you have anxiety
- 23:06Speaker 2: issues with your mother? That's Melfi from The Sopranos. Do
- 23:12Speaker 2: you guys ever do the Donnie Darko Felipe commentary? I
- 23:17Speaker 2: can't answer that.
- 23:19Speaker 1: What's up, fool? We got fucking Martin Rizzo right here, bro.
- 23:22Speaker 1: I missed your haircut, bro. You cut it again, huh?
- 23:24Speaker 3: No, no, fool. It's growing in now, finally. I cut it.
- 23:27Speaker 1: It was shorter from the back.
- 23:29Speaker 3: It is shorter from the back.
- 23:31Speaker 1: You're a figure skater now.
- 23:32Speaker 2: Figure skater.
- 23:36Speaker 1: You're trying out for the Olympics, bro.
- 23:39Speaker 3: A Russian gymnast?
- 23:40Speaker 1: For the fucking Olympics. For the Southgate figure skating team, bro.
- 23:46Speaker 3: There's no ice there, bro.
- 23:48Speaker 2: Wait, wait. So I didn't make you watch.
- 23:50Speaker 1: You weren't inspired.
- 23:51Speaker 2: By me on Drake and Josh to be an actor,
- 23:53Speaker 2: not me.
- 23:54Speaker 3: I was inspired by Drake and Josh, but you're like
- 23:56Speaker 3: a bonus on the show.
- 23:57Speaker 2: I helped the inspiration.
- 24:00Speaker 3: But yeah, but that was a good episode, the foam finger.
- 24:02Speaker 1: The thing at the night at the Roxbury haircut, bro.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Where is love?
- 24:06Speaker 3: Chris Kattan.
- 24:06Speaker 1: Don't hurt me no more.
- 24:11Speaker 3: Baby, don't hurt me.
- 24:13Speaker 2: No more. Rick looks like a K-pop demon hunter.
- 24:17Speaker 1: So what's up, man? You a Golden State Warrior fan now?
- 24:19Speaker 2: I got this at a yard sale for $ 2. So you're.
- 24:24Speaker 3: Not from the Bay?
- 24:25Speaker 2: No, no. It's a hat I'm wearing. I tried wearing
- 24:29Speaker 2: your Felipe thing and your hat, but it looks too
- 24:33Speaker 2: much like Starbucks, and they got mad in this coffee place.
- 24:37Speaker 2: They kicked me out. They said, hey, we're at mom
- 24:43Speaker 2: and pop coffee place. Stop wearing the Starbucks hat. I go, no,
- 24:46Speaker 2: it's Felipe. You got to look close. You know what
- 24:48Speaker 2: hat I'm talking about?
- 24:49Speaker 3: Do you do a lot of conventions?
- 24:55Speaker 2: Oh, I had the worst convention. I had one. I'll
- 24:57Speaker 2: never do it again.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Which one was it?
- 24:59Speaker 3: Handy Mandy and all that stuff, right?
- 25:00Speaker 2: Well, it's so.
- 25:01Speaker 1: Mickey Mouse.
- 25:03Speaker 2: I thought stand-up comedy was Mickey Mouse amateur hour where, hey,
- 25:07Speaker 2: you already got your drink coupon that looks like a
- 25:10Speaker 2: ski bowl ticket you won. You know what I mean?
- 25:12Speaker 3: I love those drink tickets.
- 25:14Speaker 2: Oh, I was at the ice house and I go,
- 25:16Speaker 2: I didn't get my drink coupon. You got yours. Like
- 25:18Speaker 2: I'm some scam artist trying to get free drinks.
- 25:22Speaker 3: A scam artist trying to get.
- 25:23Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like, I want a cranberry juice. I'm not
- 25:26Speaker 2: some guy pretending I got drink coupons to get another drink.
- 25:30Speaker 2: But you know what?
- 25:31Speaker 1: Sorry.
- 25:31Speaker 3: There are a lot of people like that.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Oh, these... What are they called? Grifters? When I started stand-up,
- 25:39Speaker 2: we didn't call anyone grifters. Now every... It's usually you
- 25:42Speaker 2: try to get in a sitcom, you try writing, you
- 25:45Speaker 2: try this, but now everyone's grifting like me. Please buy this. No.
- 25:50Speaker 2: And there's no grift with this. It's entertaining. So, okay.
- 25:54Speaker 2: So I did this place in Tennessee and this guy saying,
- 25:58Speaker 2: you know, you're supposed to get a guarantee, you know, because, oh,
- 26:01Speaker 2: this is a big one. It's new. So they can't,
- 26:03Speaker 2: they're not giving anyone guarantees. So I said, all right,
- 26:07Speaker 2: all right, let's see what happens. And then I should
- 26:10Speaker 2: have got out right away because I had to take
- 26:12Speaker 2: three planes back someplace in Tennessee and And there was
- 26:17Speaker 2: no one there, and it was a disaster. And I'm saying, oh, yeah,
- 26:23Speaker 2: there's no guarantees. Eddie Deason, you know who he is?
- 26:26Speaker 2: He's from Greece. He goes, I got a guarantee. So
- 26:28Speaker 2: they were lying, and all right.
- 26:32Speaker 3: And did you do radio for that weekend, too?
- 26:34Speaker 2: No.
- 26:35Speaker 1: What is that?
- 26:36Speaker 3: That's the problem, brother.
- 26:37Speaker 2: You didn't do any radios. When I opened for Norm MacDonald...
- 26:41Speaker 2: He asked me to say, how many people came here
- 26:43Speaker 2: because they heard us on the radio? No one cheered.
- 26:48Speaker 2: So what they would make, when I opened for Norm,
- 26:50Speaker 2: they would make us do morning radios, even though his
- 26:52Speaker 2: shows were sold out, so just to plug the club
- 26:55Speaker 2: in general. They didn't need it. Yeah. It was like
- 26:58Speaker 2: Norm plugging the club.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Morning radio is crazy. It's 5 in the morning, and
- 27:04Speaker 3: you've got to pretend to be so energetic. It's crazy, dude.
- 27:08Speaker 2: As opposed to this.
- 27:12Speaker 1: So what happened when, talk about one of the times
- 27:16Speaker 1: where you got kidnapped by Norm MacDonald.
- 27:18Speaker 2: That's in the book. There's a story called Kidnapped by Norm. Well,
- 27:23Speaker 2: you see, back when I used to hang out with him,
- 27:27Speaker 2: there wasn't Uber then. And so his partner who helped
- 27:33Speaker 2: him out would say, hey, we're going to come pick
- 27:37Speaker 2: you up. So then you'd hang out with him and
- 27:40Speaker 2: you just couldn't go home. You're playing every board game
- 27:43Speaker 2: and he'd get mad if you won. So he had
- 27:45Speaker 2: to prove he could beat you seven times in a row.
- 27:48Speaker 2: Or you just watch movie after movie, which is fun.
- 27:51Speaker 1: What movies?
- 27:54Speaker 2: He loved like Turner Classics, like Slapshot. He loved these.
- 27:59Speaker 2: Do you know Slapshot? No, no. Oh, that had the
- 28:02Speaker 2: Hanson brothers. You look like one of them. Put on
- 28:05Speaker 2: the Hanson brothers from Slapshot.
- 28:07Speaker 3: Because you're a blonde. You look like a handsome brother.
- 28:11Speaker 1: Yeah, look.
- 28:12Speaker 2: You look like that guy over there.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Holy shit, dude. Yeah, kind of. Umbop, homie.
- 28:17Speaker 2: He loved that movie.
- 28:18Speaker 1: That's Earl Skakel.
- 28:20Speaker 2: That was Norm. Oh, he got mad because.
- 28:23Speaker 1: That was a good movie, though. I finally saw it
- 28:27Speaker 1: last year in a plane. It's pretty good. This movie
- 28:32Speaker 1: right here, it's what... Major League is, but the hockey version.
- 28:38Speaker 2: Norm was from Canada, big hockey guy. So he would
- 28:41Speaker 2: put on, he would, you would suggest a movie and
- 28:45Speaker 2: he'd go, this is shit. He, if you suggested anything,
- 28:48Speaker 2: he'd say, yeah, this is, but he, and if he
- 28:51Speaker 2: thought you didn't like it, you'd have to watch three
- 28:53Speaker 2: more movies. So, so one time, like, I'd hang out
- 28:57Speaker 2: with him and he didn't drive, but Laurie, his producing partner,
- 29:02Speaker 2: would drive him everywhere and we'd hang out and So
- 29:05Speaker 2: one time, hey, let's look at houses. Norm, you should
- 29:07Speaker 2: buy a house. And I go, I want to go home. No,
- 29:10Speaker 2: you got to hang out with us. We're driving from
- 29:12Speaker 2: house to house. I want to go home. So I said,
- 29:14Speaker 2: let's look at the one at Crescent Heights. That looks
- 29:16Speaker 2: like a good one. All right. And I tricked them because...
- 29:21Speaker 2: It was right by my apartment. So I got out
- 29:23Speaker 2: of the red light. You fucker. You know, I'm running out.
- 29:26Speaker 2: You fucking son of a bitch. Get the fuck back here.
- 29:29Speaker 2: You fucking better hang out with this fucker. And so
- 29:32Speaker 2: that's the story, hanging out with Norm. So he would
- 29:36Speaker 2: he would like you have to watch something there's a
- 29:40Speaker 2: lot of people they say a thing with anxiety is
- 29:43Speaker 2: when you get older Norm was like that you only
- 29:46Speaker 2: want to watch movies you saw already because you know
- 29:48Speaker 2: they'll be good you can't even deal with the anxiety
- 29:51Speaker 2: of that that might not be good.
- 29:52Speaker 3: Because you know the ending already like you know yes
- 29:54Speaker 3: you know the outcome ready so I've heard about that
- 29:56Speaker 3: that's what people watch A lot of friends, you know,
- 29:58Speaker 3: before they go to sleep or Simpsons.
- 30:00Speaker 2: You know what I watch a lot? You know, it's
- 30:03Speaker 2: a comfort thing to me. I'm not into streaming shows.
- 30:07Speaker 2: I like movies. And every streaming show, it's the same thing.
- 30:11Speaker 2: Jon Hamm, he's good looking. He's rich. He screws women.
- 30:15Speaker 2: It's some stupid show. And I like Law and Order
- 30:21Speaker 2: because they're not trying to, oh, the kid was molested
- 30:24Speaker 2: and the backstory. It's just so straightforward. Someone's murdered. go
- 30:28Speaker 2: to the grocery store, and then go there. You know
- 30:30Speaker 2: what I mean? I like Law & Order. Once I'm
- 30:33Speaker 2: watching the first... There's a formula.
- 30:35Speaker 1: Yes.
- 30:36Speaker 2: And it's all tied up in one episode, you know,
- 30:40Speaker 2: and not like a streaming thing. So once I'm watching
- 30:42Speaker 2: the first three minutes of Law & Order, I can't
- 30:47Speaker 2: not keep watching it. I've got to stay with it.
- 30:50Speaker 2: You know the comedian Godfrey?
- 30:52Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:53Speaker 2: The Yorkburg. Yeah, black guy. He does a great impression
- 30:57Speaker 2: of how bad iced tea is. Now I'm being demanding.
- 31:02Speaker 2: Could you put up Godfrey doing iced tea in Law
- 31:05Speaker 2: and Order? It's, yeah.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Oh, I thought you said Mr. T.
- 31:10Speaker 4: Yeah, Bumba Claude.
- 31:14Speaker 3: Talk all the beats, the original. The original selector. Yeah, boy,
- 31:20Speaker 3: give me that good shot.
- 31:22Speaker 1: Give me that good shot, Bobby Lee.
- 31:24Speaker 2: In my day, you didn't have comedians with arms this big.
- 31:28Speaker 3: No, but the comedians weren't buff.
- 31:30Speaker 2: No, everyone's arm is this big as a comedian. What's
- 31:33Speaker 2: your Ice Cube impression?
- 31:39Speaker 3: I remember doing a show with Godfrey like 15 years
- 31:41Speaker 3: ago at the Laugh Factory in Rialto. There was a
- 31:44Speaker 3: Laugh Factory at the San Manuel Casino back then.
- 31:46Speaker 1: I did it.
- 31:47Speaker 3: Dude, it was crazy. There'd be people gambling watching you.
- 31:51Speaker 3: At the Laugh Factory in San... And then I see
- 31:53Speaker 3: them and find me like this.
- 31:57Speaker 4: I see me like this. Yo, we found him dead.
- 31:59Speaker 4: Right in the middle of his podcast. Looks like that's
- 32:02Speaker 4: his last episode.
- 32:05Speaker 1: You guys got the kung kung? I know. Okay, wait.
- 32:08Speaker 2: Find, find, I want you to, they have it.
- 32:11Speaker 4: Find the Law & Order transitional music.
- 32:16Speaker 2: Well, it's a little sound bite or whatever.
- 32:19Speaker 1: Ready? Ready? Okay. All right, ready?
- 32:25Speaker 2: Looks like they found him in his podcast.
- 32:28Speaker 1: He was dead.
- 32:28Speaker 4: Looks like that's going to be his last episode.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like.
- 32:36Speaker 4: Looks like his microphone wasn't on when he heard the bullets. Yeah,
- 32:41Speaker 4: that's pretty sad.
- 32:42Speaker 1: He was a comedian.
- 32:43Speaker 4: I guess that was his last punchline.
- 32:48Speaker 3: But the reason you like Law and Order because basically
- 32:51Speaker 3: everything concludes in one episode.
- 32:53Speaker 2: It does not leave. I found some of these streaming
- 32:56Speaker 2: shows so contrived. They hook you with some stupid contrivance
- 33:02Speaker 2: and you got to keep watching it. And movies, I
- 33:05Speaker 2: like the pace. It's not like everything is A ridiculous coincidence.
- 33:09Speaker 2: It's all in one thing. They're not, like I said,
- 33:12Speaker 2: some backstory. Oh, I got to call my wife. She's
- 33:14Speaker 2: threatening to take the house away. And then the kid
- 33:17Speaker 2: hates me. It's just, all right, you know, and everyone's
- 33:21Speaker 2: done this bit. But I was like, if you're working
- 33:24Speaker 2: in a store and I have two cops, I see
- 33:26Speaker 2: a lot of black people here. I don't know. I'm
- 33:28Speaker 2: going back to work. If a cop is asking me questions,
- 33:31Speaker 2: all right, I'm respectful.
- 33:33Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
- 33:33Speaker 2: They always have that. They're working. They can't stop. They're
- 33:36Speaker 2: putting things on a shelf.
- 33:37Speaker 3: I see a lot of things here, you know?
- 33:38Speaker 2: Yeah. But I just like it's straightforward and everything is
- 33:41Speaker 2: kind of sewed up in one episode.
- 33:44Speaker 3: Well, that's old TV, you know? Basically, that's made for
- 33:47Speaker 3: syndication because everything will be resolved in an episode because
- 33:51Speaker 3: they can show the episodes out of order as opposed
- 33:53Speaker 3: to fucking streaming. You need to be like, you can't watch.
- 33:57Speaker 2: Even a great streaming doesn't take the test of time,
- 34:02Speaker 2: whatever the expression is. Like that show, Succession, which everyone
- 34:07Speaker 2: says is amazing, but you don't rerun it.
- 34:10Speaker 1: Mike Epps was a good one on Ice-T. Put Mike Epps, Ice-T.
- 34:15Speaker 1: This one's funny, man. He does it on stage.
- 34:18Speaker 3: Six in the Morning. What was the song he made
- 34:21Speaker 3: back in the day?
- 34:22Speaker 1: This one's funny, bro. This is the first time I
- 34:24Speaker 1: heard it right here.
- 34:25Speaker 2: Ice-T and Coco, man, I love Ice-T. I've been looking
- 34:27Speaker 2: at Ice-T since 6 in the morning.
- 34:29Speaker 1: I died. Me and Rodrigo died listening to this. I'm
- 34:31Speaker 1: a big fan of Ice-T.
- 34:32Speaker 2: I seen him in the airport with his girl. He's like, Mike,
- 34:34Speaker 2: we need to do a movie together.
- 34:35Speaker 3: I said, all right.
- 34:36Speaker 4: But in my mind, I said, man, they only give
- 34:38Speaker 4: you two lines on Law & Order.
- 34:40Speaker 2: That's fucked up how they do Ice-T. They didn't cut
- 34:45Speaker 2: his ponytail and his lines.
- 34:50Speaker 3: I seen him on there the other night.
- 34:51Speaker 4: He came on there, homicide call this morning, said three
- 34:54Speaker 4: kids missing.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
- 35:02Speaker 3: Bro, if you can do a sound bite on stage,
- 35:04Speaker 3: that'd be funny, bro. He didn't cut him off.
- 35:08Speaker 4: He leant over a dead body the other night and said, yep,
- 35:11Speaker 4: that's him.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. I said, oh, man, his
- 35:16Speaker 2: ass was.
- 35:17Speaker 1: Out of there. Put Jim Carrey, CSI Miami, making fun
- 35:25Speaker 1: of David Caruso. Have you seen that one? No.
- 35:29Speaker 2: With the sunglasses. I know people used to do that.
- 35:32Speaker 1: This is Jim Carrey, man.
- 35:34Speaker 3: And the other thing I like to tune in on
- 35:36Speaker 3: every once in a while, CSI Miami.
- 35:37Speaker 2: The first murder on the.
- 35:38Speaker 3: Books in this part of town.
- 35:40Speaker 2: Not what you bargain for when you buy your check
- 35:42Speaker 2: of the American Dream. And then your dream becomes a nightmare.
- 35:45Speaker 2: David Caruso. Very good, isn't it?
- 35:47Speaker 3: I love to see him put the button on those scenes.
- 35:49Speaker 1: What do you mean by that? Well, you know what
- 35:51Speaker 1: they say, Frank.
- 35:52Speaker 2: Speed kills. Well, he's the buttoner.
- 35:55Speaker 3: He's the scene buttoner.
- 35:56Speaker 2: This is another little acting insight, isn't it? Absolutely. All right.
- 35:58Speaker 1: Yes.
- 35:59Speaker 3: He loves to put the button on it, and then
- 36:01Speaker 3: he just walks away. He doesn't wait for anybody to retort.
- 36:05Speaker 4: Right.
- 36:05Speaker 2: You know? I think he's afraid they might have a comeback.
- 36:09Speaker 3: So he just puts the button on the scene.
- 36:11Speaker 1: He always.
- 36:11Speaker 2: I brought my glasses. Yeah. You know... Can I do
- 36:14Speaker 2: him for you a little bit? Well, please, I wish
- 36:16Speaker 2: you would. Okay, David Caruso.
- 36:28Speaker 1: Well, I guess we've.
- 36:32Speaker 3: Found our man.
- 36:33Speaker 2: Yeah, they play The Who. He does a bunch.
- 36:40Speaker 1: Of them, man, he goes. He goes, like, Hickory, Hickory,
- 36:49Speaker 1: I guess, nursery. Imagine if he did nursery rhymes. Hickory, Hickory, doc. Yeah, anyways.
- 37:00Speaker 3: He looks like the lady that does, the Santa Camino,
- 37:02Speaker 3: those impressions of.
- 37:03Speaker 1: But everybody does that. I guess they must have got
- 37:06Speaker 1: that from actual cops, you know, because they're both playing cops,
- 37:12Speaker 1: you know. David Caruso playing a cop and the other
- 37:16Speaker 1: guy was a cop. That guy from the freeway chases, remember?
- 37:19Speaker 1: They think they're going to get away. But there is
- 37:25Speaker 1: no cantina where these amigos are going.
- 37:30Speaker 2: You know, there's some woman, looks like, jim carrey and
- 37:35Speaker 2: she's a comedian she does impressions it looks like her
- 37:37Speaker 2: but she just went on youtube and did that and
- 37:40Speaker 2: now she's enormous because she looks like jim carrey she does.
- 37:45Speaker 3: She sells out shows because.
- 37:46Speaker 2: She looks like jim carrey is she funny or i
- 37:48Speaker 2: don't get it if.
- 37:49Speaker 1: I lock in i can look like her bro but that.
- 37:58Speaker 2: But she built, like, selling out shows because she looks
- 38:02Speaker 2: like Jim Carrey? Is she funny?
- 38:04Speaker 3: Yeah. I've seen her do her regular stand-up bits, and
- 38:07Speaker 3: she's funny, dude.

- 39:20Speaker 1: Bridgetown.
- 39:22Speaker 3: Hell yeah, dude.
- 39:23Speaker 2: What happened to the comments?
- 39:24Speaker 1: Is that La Puente trying to sound cool, bro?
- 39:27Speaker 3: Oh, that's like the nickname they call Bridgetown because La Puente.
- 39:29Speaker 1: When did that start?
- 39:30Speaker 3: It's been going on forever.
- 39:31Speaker 1: I think.
- 39:32Speaker 3: No, that's not a game. But people say Bridgetown, you know,
- 39:34Speaker 3: like a whole bunch of... But right there on.
- 39:38Speaker 1: La Puente, Bridgetown?
- 39:39Speaker 3: Dude, it's right there next to the.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Are Cholo riding it down on their back?
- 39:43Speaker 3: Yeah, dude. I think they say Bridgetown, you know, like fucking, hey, bro,
- 39:45Speaker 3: I'm like a troll under the bridge, homie. You know,
- 39:48Speaker 3: riddle me this.
- 39:49Speaker 2: What?
- 39:51Speaker 1: La Puente, how many bridges do they have?
- 39:54Speaker 2: Bridgetown. Do they have bridges?
- 39:56Speaker 3: I think the only bridges I see is the freeway, bro.
- 39:58Speaker 3: But they call it La Puente. There has to be
- 40:00Speaker 3: a reason why they call it that.
- 40:01Speaker 2: Bridgetown.
- 40:02Speaker 1: Well, if you call it Bridgetown, man, there's got to
- 40:04Speaker 1: be at least one.
- 40:05Speaker 2: You've got to back it up.
- 40:06Speaker 3: You can't just do that.
- 40:07Speaker 1: He says we've got to back it up, bro.
- 40:08Speaker 2: You can't just.
- 40:09Speaker 1: He's from Brooklyn.
- 40:11Speaker 3: Brooklyn has a whole bunch of bridges, dude. Because La
- 40:13Speaker 3: Puente translates to bridge.
- 40:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 40:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 40:17Speaker 3: But Active Collision is actually right next to the... Oh,
- 40:20Speaker 3: I get it. One of the only drive-ins still active
- 40:23Speaker 3: in Los Angeles County.
- 40:27Speaker 1: At the.
- 40:27Speaker 3: What's it called? Yeah, the drive-in theater right there. Vineland Drive-In.
- 40:35Speaker 1: So, yeah. Hell yeah.
- 40:36Speaker 3: Active Collision, check them out, bro.
- 40:38Speaker 2: Isaac, do you remember when I was opening for Felipe
- 40:42Speaker 2: and you liked animation and something I was on came on?
- 40:47Speaker 2: I forgot what it was.
- 40:48Speaker 3: Handy Mandy.
- 40:49Speaker 2: Maybe it was Penguins of Madagascar. I played Fred the squirrel.
- 40:57Speaker 3: On Madagascar?
- 40:58Speaker 2: The TV show, Penguins of Madagascar.
- 41:02Speaker 3: And your character was named after you?
- 41:04Speaker 2: Oh, I've done so many things where I'm named Fred.
- 41:06Speaker 2: When I was on Seinfeld, originally the character's name was Pete.
- 41:11Speaker 2: And then, oh yeah.
- 41:13Speaker 3: You're the penguin?
- 41:14Speaker 2: No, that's the squirrel me.
- 41:16Speaker 3: Oh, you're the squirrel. Oh, animation was funny.
- 41:30Speaker 2: So what was I going to say? I forgot.
- 41:35Speaker 1: Just a little bit of his book right here. But
- 41:40Speaker 1: then I went to the most intimidating Hollywood party that
- 41:44Speaker 1: changed the way I looked at this. I'm going to
- 41:47Speaker 1: read it like Al Pacino.
- 41:49Speaker 2: What?
- 41:49Speaker 1: I got invited to the party because I pumped into
- 41:53Speaker 1: Ben Stiller.
- 41:54Speaker 2: Hoo-ha.
- 41:56Speaker 1: I knew him. He was 14 years. And I dated
- 42:00Speaker 1: his sister back in the 80s. That was a long
- 42:03Speaker 1: time ago. Hoo-ha-ha. Maria Jo Diaz. I've always felt awkwardly socially.
- 42:10Speaker 1: Any part I went to, I felt like Rats Rizzo
- 42:12Speaker 1: from Midnight Cowboy when he was at the fancy party.
- 42:16Speaker 1: shoving salami in his pocket, afraid they'd kick him out
- 42:19Speaker 1: for not belonging there. Free shrimp! They got a good cartoonist.
- 42:26Speaker 2: Yeah, Cody, who I work with, that's why on our thing,
- 42:30Speaker 2: on our YouTube thing, you see us working on the
- 42:32Speaker 2: next issue. We draw, I talk, this is what Felipe
- 42:37Speaker 2: was talking about, the story with John Voight. So basically
- 42:40Speaker 2: what happened, I'll sum up the story, that Did you
- 42:46Speaker 2: see Midnight Cowboy?
- 42:47Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 42:48Speaker 2: Anytime I'm at a party, I feel like when Ratso
- 42:50Speaker 2: Rizzo was at a party, he doesn't belong there and
- 42:53Speaker 2: he's putting salami in his pocket and they kick him out.
- 42:58Speaker 2: So I was at this Hollywood party. I felt I
- 43:01Speaker 2: didn't belong there. There was Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell.
- 43:04Speaker 2: So I see Jon Voight who was in Midnight Cowboy
- 43:07Speaker 2: and I went over to him. I go, you know,
- 43:09Speaker 2: at these parties, I always feel like Ratso Rizzo, like
- 43:12Speaker 2: he doesn't belong there. And he goes, we all feel
- 43:15Speaker 2: like that. And it blew me away. Here was John Voight,
- 43:19Speaker 2: Joe Buck, the coolest guy, saying we all feel like that. So,
- 43:23Speaker 2: all right, the cartoons make the story better. You know,
- 43:26Speaker 2: I didn't sell it so good.
- 43:30Speaker 1: So you were telling a story, but you didn't finish
- 43:31Speaker 1: it about doing those cons. Because you were supposed to go.
- 43:37Speaker 2: I was supposed to be in Tennessee two days, and
- 43:39Speaker 2: this was the back roads where I land at midnight.
- 43:44Speaker 2: It was an hour. They pick you up to take
- 43:47Speaker 2: you there, and I didn't eat all day, and there's
- 43:50Speaker 2: no food there.
- 43:51Speaker 1: No soup.
- 43:52Speaker 2: There was no food, and then we're at this hotel,
- 43:55Speaker 2: which was a Section 8 hotel. where if you're displaced,
- 43:59Speaker 2: you stay there. It was the hotel where there's ashtrays all.
- 44:04Speaker 1: Across the balcony.
- 44:06Speaker 2: And people walking around, the doors open, dogs coming in, babies.
- 44:10Speaker 2: Get there, put a diaper on them. And it's the
- 44:13Speaker 2: worst hotel room. I go, is there a Starbucks? I
- 44:16Speaker 2: need a coffee. Oh, we don't have anything around here.
- 44:19Speaker 2: And they take me to this convention thing where no
- 44:23Speaker 2: one was there. I was sitting next to Eddie. dezen
- 44:26Speaker 2: from greece he was the nerd and next to a
- 44:28Speaker 2: wolf a guy had a thing where you you sit
- 44:31Speaker 2: and you take a picture with a wolf was he
- 44:32Speaker 2: in a movie as a wolf no no no no
- 44:35Speaker 2: there was a wolf it's like the low level of
- 44:38Speaker 2: carnivals you know the conventions the top tier is.
- 44:44Speaker 1: Like i don't know like walking dead guys.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Walking dead guys yeah yeah.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Uh Breaking Bad.
- 44:49Speaker 2: Breaking Bad.
- 44:52Speaker 3: We saw this one guy who was an extra in
- 44:53Speaker 3: a whole bunch of movies, and he somehow set up
- 44:56Speaker 3: a booth at the con in Texas.
- 44:59Speaker 1: You've seen that before, right? Somebody that barely did anything.
- 45:02Speaker 2: Oh, that was in George's. The lady who was naked
- 45:05Speaker 2: and got eaten by the shark in the beginning.
- 45:07Speaker 1: In the beginning of the movie.
- 45:08Speaker 2: Yeah, and now she's like 75.
- 45:08Speaker 1: She was there?
- 45:09Speaker 2: And she's, you know, really big, and she doesn't look
- 45:11Speaker 2: like a sexy lady. Not that I'm judging.
- 45:14Speaker 1: We were talking shit about getting excited about that she
- 45:16Speaker 1: was there.
- 45:17Speaker 2: Yes. But if you were involved in like a horror
- 45:20Speaker 2: movie or sci-fi or zombies, you could clean up, you know.
- 45:24Speaker 2: But I'm just some schmuck, you know. I don't know.
- 45:26Speaker 2: I shouldn't say that.
- 45:27Speaker 3: No, you've been in so many memorable roles, dude.
- 45:29Speaker 2: But this convention was just me, Eddie Deason, and a wolf.
- 45:33Speaker 2: A real wolf.
- 45:34Speaker 3: Shark lady.
- 45:35Speaker 2: No, no, she wasn't. I'm just saying in general, that's
- 45:37Speaker 2: what you have. This was the lowest tier of the
- 45:39Speaker 2: lowest tier. But there's one guy, a couple, he'd drive
- 45:42Speaker 2: around with two real wolves and like the carnival circuit
- 45:46Speaker 2: and take your picture with a wolf. And they were
- 45:49Speaker 2: very nice. They'd let me do it for free. But
- 45:51Speaker 2: no one, and I knew by 11, no one was
- 45:54Speaker 2: at this thing and it was a disaster. So usually
- 45:59Speaker 2: you want a guarantee. And like I said, the guy
- 46:04Speaker 2: who booked me said, the guy who's offering no guarantees.
- 46:06Speaker 2: And Eddie, he talks like this. He's from Greece. I
- 46:10Speaker 2: got a guarantee, Fred. So it's like the Mickey Mouse
- 46:13Speaker 2: nonsense of comedy clubs where comedy owners are lying, saying
- 46:16Speaker 2: there's no guarantees. And I wanted to go home. I
- 46:21Speaker 2: was supposed to be there Sunday, and I had to
- 46:22Speaker 2: pay extra money, my own money, to go home a
- 46:24Speaker 2: day early. And I should have canceled when I saw
- 46:28Speaker 2: it was three flights back.
- 46:30Speaker 1: Yeah, so I– Three flights back, bro.
- 46:33Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 46:33Speaker 1: When was the last time you took three flights back home?
- 46:36Speaker 2: No.
- 46:36Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever taken three flights unless I
- 46:38Speaker 3: miss a flight, but that sounds crazy.
- 46:40Speaker 2: That's like– It's just– it's the low– you know, I thought, oh,
- 46:43Speaker 2: a bunch of people, you know, just to see how–
- 46:46Speaker 2: if they were receptive to me. It was– again, I–
- 46:52Speaker 2: you know, like I'm lucky that I did comedy in
- 46:54Speaker 2: the 80s And you didn't have to hand out coupons
- 46:57Speaker 2: to fill up rooms. You just got booked. Everyone got booked.
- 47:01Speaker 2: You didn't have to, people called you. You didn't have
- 47:04Speaker 2: to like paper the room. And then I come to
- 47:07Speaker 2: LA and it's, you don't get stage time. But then
- 47:11Speaker 2: I broke into TV shows, a few movies, voiceovers, which
- 47:14Speaker 2: is legit. You know, but stand up, they're lying. Well,
- 47:17Speaker 2: you don't have money or got so much Mickey Mouse money. stuff,
- 47:21Speaker 2: but I don't like amateur hour. This is professional. I
- 47:24Speaker 2: like you. You love you guys. Last time I got
- 47:27Speaker 2: a free hat. You know, maybe I could talk.
- 47:29Speaker 3: You into some friends. You didn't get a free wig.
- 47:31Speaker 1: That's not right. So the guy that was taking pictures
- 47:33Speaker 1: was the wolf? Was that the wolf from American War
- 47:35Speaker 1: from London?
- 47:36Speaker 2: No, it was just some random two wolves.
- 47:38Speaker 3: Just a hairy guy.
- 47:40Speaker 2: So my theory was Eddie Deason. Look him up. You'll
- 47:45Speaker 2: know him.
- 47:46Speaker 1: Eddie Deason.
- 47:46Speaker 2: Yeah, from Greece.
- 47:48Speaker 1: D-I-E-S-E-N.
- 47:49Speaker 2: He can't drive. He's not, you know, I shouldn't say
- 47:53Speaker 2: what functional is.
- 47:54Speaker 1: So he, so.
- 47:56Speaker 2: The wolves, they stay in cages. And this couple has
- 48:03Speaker 2: a little farm and they feed them. But then they
- 48:06Speaker 2: drive them from, I was going to say carnival to carnival.
- 48:09Speaker 2: That's what, like the carnival circuit. You see Eddie Deason,
- 48:12Speaker 2: the guy there from Grease? He talks like this.
- 48:16Speaker 1: Oh, he's from California.
- 48:18Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. He's from, I forgot Baltimore, but
- 48:22Speaker 2: he came to California. He was in Greece, Polar Express.
- 48:24Speaker 1: And he was in... Is he from Revenge of the Nerds?
- 48:27Speaker 1: He was in that show Riptides.
- 48:29Speaker 3: No, he was in fucking War of the.
- 48:33Speaker 2: War Games.
- 48:33Speaker 3: War Games with fucking.
- 48:35Speaker 1: And the show Riptides. Look at the show Riptides.
- 48:37Speaker 3: With Ferris Bueller, right?
- 48:39Speaker 2: He told me he did an episode of Magnum P.I.,
- 48:43Speaker 2: And there was a girl I liked. That's how he talks.
- 48:46Speaker 2: And Tom Selleck was giving me advice how to say
- 48:48Speaker 2: things to her.
- 48:49Speaker 1: Yeah, Riptides. He was in that show, Riptides.
- 48:51Speaker 2: What was Riptides?
- 48:52Speaker 3: Bro, in War Games, bro?
- 48:55Speaker 1: Nobody saw that show but me, bro. Trust me.
- 48:57Speaker 2: So no comments are here anymore?
- 48:59Speaker 1: Right there, bro. Riptides, eh?
- 49:01Speaker 3: Dude, War Games? They talk about AI back in the 80s?
- 49:04Speaker 3: It was crazy.
- 49:07Speaker 1: Funky Brewster. He was on everything.
- 49:09Speaker 2: So he doesn't drive... So he... He's in Silver Lake, though.
- 49:12Speaker 1: He lives in Silver Lake. He lives in Silver Lake.
- 49:15Speaker 2: I've seen him. No, he went back to Baltimore. He
- 49:20Speaker 2: got in a little trouble.
- 49:21Speaker 1: I used to see him all the time.
- 49:22Speaker 2: Because I went to the comments because I thought someone
- 49:24Speaker 2: would know. He got in a little trouble.
- 49:26Speaker 1: Where are the comments at? We can't see the comments.
- 49:29Speaker 3: So Fred, he was the guy from Polar Express. He
- 49:31Speaker 3: plays the young kid.
- 49:33Speaker 2: I think his character is know-it-all.
- 49:35Speaker 3: Yeah. It looks like him. It's crazy.
- 49:38Speaker 2: So he was there and he goes, I got a guarantee.
- 49:41Speaker 2: So they're lying. So he's older now? Yeah. 60?
- 49:43Speaker 1: 69 now. So people still come see him?
- 49:51Speaker 2: Well, he's on that low tier. He does some good conventions.
- 49:55Speaker 2: But every weekend, he lives with a couple. He goes,
- 49:57Speaker 2: it's great. I have a TV. I have sugar babies
- 50:02Speaker 2: all over. Milk duds. They feed me. They give me candy.
- 50:06Speaker 2: So this couple drives him from all these weird, low-level conventions.
- 50:12Speaker 2: And then I realize he's like one of the wolves.
- 50:16Speaker 2: You know, they... They drive the wolves around. They give
- 50:19Speaker 2: them treats.
- 50:20Speaker 1: Damn, this guy. I forgot about him.
- 50:21Speaker 2: Does anyone... All right, here are the comments. Does anyone
- 50:23Speaker 2: know who Eddie Deason is?
- 50:26Speaker 1: Okay.
- 50:28Speaker 3: I remember him from War Games and also, yeah, Polar Express.
- 50:31Speaker 3: The little nerdy, stupid-ass kid.
- 50:33Speaker 2: And Grease.
- 50:35Speaker 3: And Grease, yeah.
- 50:35Speaker 2: The nerd, yeah. You know, he told me stories like, yeah,
- 50:39Speaker 2: John Travolta, he would... There was this first scene where
- 50:43Speaker 2: they're going down the steps and he'd kind of go, hey,
- 50:45Speaker 2: and he... You know, he's... tussling him because hey you're
- 50:48Speaker 2: the nerd and he'd always go hey buddy you okay
- 50:51Speaker 2: of course eddie was in every 80s movie that needed
- 50:53Speaker 2: a nerd uh handy manny playing the wrench yes we
- 50:58Speaker 2: go together like i don't know if i have the
- 51:00Speaker 2: energy but help him however i can when he asks
- 51:04Speaker 2: all right.
- 51:05Speaker 3: Fred, last year, we were in Cleveland doing a show,
- 51:08Speaker 3: and then we went to the Christmas Story house, and
- 51:10Speaker 3: the lady who was dressing the whole red suit, she
- 51:13Speaker 3: was like.
- 51:13Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, we went to the Christmas Story house. You
- 51:15Speaker 1: know that Christmas Story movie?
- 51:16Speaker 2: It was Mandrake on Dexter's Lab, which maybe Isaac saw.
- 51:19Speaker 1: You know that movie, Christmas Story?
- 51:22Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, with the licking the.
- 51:25Speaker 1: Yeah, we went to that house in Cleveland. And across the.
- 51:30Speaker 3: Street, they had like a Christmas story house. And the
- 51:32Speaker 3: lady that was like just like a little small part
- 51:34Speaker 3: in the movie.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a lady there. Wrote a whole book, bro.
- 51:37Speaker 1: The one that says, you shoot your eye out, kid.
- 51:41Speaker 2: How was it working on Friends? I knew Matt LeBlanc
- 51:45Speaker 2: because we did a bad show, Vinny and Bobby. So
- 51:48Speaker 2: it was fun. I did two episodes. The people remember
- 51:52Speaker 2: is when Monica was locked in a freezer and we slept.
- 51:56Speaker 2: poured marinara on her or something. But then there was,
- 52:00Speaker 2: I came back and one of my favorite lines was,
- 52:03Speaker 2: so I hired, they hired, Monica asked me to hire
- 52:08Speaker 2: a stripper for Chandler's bachelor party. And I hired a hooker,
- 52:14Speaker 2: not a stripper. And she goes, are you sure it's
- 52:17Speaker 2: a hooker? I go, yeah, unless she's the best, most
- 52:21Speaker 2: expensive date I ever had. It got a better laugh
- 52:26Speaker 2: on Friends.
- 52:27Speaker 3: I love Friends.
- 52:29Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, so there was a guy, Ron Liebman, who
- 52:32Speaker 2: I was a big fan of. He was on Friends.
- 52:36Speaker 2: But yeah, conventions, it's too much. You sit there, I
- 52:42Speaker 2: felt like I was at a flea market. I might
- 52:45Speaker 2: as well have just pushed my pictures aside and sold vitamins.
- 52:50Speaker 3: Rhino pills, bro.
- 52:51Speaker 1: So stupid.
- 52:53Speaker 2: Fred is like, yeah, whatever, good for you for anything
- 52:56Speaker 2: you mention. What does that mean? Oh, that's Lisa said that.
- 53:01Speaker 2: Good for you. Oh, Gilbert used to do an impression of,
- 53:06Speaker 2: what's his name? The black guy, Beetlejuice on how it's done.
- 53:10Speaker 2: Good for you. Good for you. Do you know what
- 53:15Speaker 2: I'm talking about?
- 53:15Speaker 1: Your show's coming up, fool.
- 53:17Speaker 3: Yeah, next week I'm actually doing Larry Bubbles Brown's show
- 53:21Speaker 3: in San Francisco on a Tuesday.
- 53:23Speaker 2: Look at Mike. He's going, I'm sorry for booking you
- 53:27Speaker 2: for Tennessee, Fred. I learned my lesson on that one.
- 53:29Speaker 2: Mike booked me, this guy. He's a great guy.
- 53:32Speaker 3: That guy Mike booked?
- 53:34Speaker 2: He booked me, yes. He's apologizing. I went home a
- 53:38Speaker 2: day early. I had to pay my own money, and
- 53:41Speaker 2: poor Mike drove nine and a half hours to get.
- 53:43Speaker 1: 10% of nothing.
- 53:45Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Mike. No, you got a little money.
- 53:47Speaker 1: Was it charging people to get in?
- 53:49Speaker 2: I think they charged five bucks. It was such a
- 53:51Speaker 2: low end.
- 53:51Speaker 1: You're charging for photos?
- 53:53Speaker 2: Yeah, I felt guilty.
- 53:54Speaker 3: What year was this?
- 53:56Speaker 2: This was a few weeks ago. I'm too late in
- 53:58Speaker 2: my life, Tennessee. I'm too late in my life to
- 54:01Speaker 2: go through the most Mickey Mouse experience I ever had.
- 54:04Speaker 3: Oh, this is a convention. I was thinking of a
- 54:06Speaker 3: comedy show.
- 54:06Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike Caron, a great guy, he booked me there.
- 54:09Speaker 2: He said, it's new. They're excited to have you. And
- 54:13Speaker 2: I thought, this is good. Get vibes out that I
- 54:15Speaker 2: do conventions. It was just, you know... Yeah, but you
- 54:20Speaker 2: remember Eddie and the Wolves.
- 54:23Speaker 1: So we're going to be at Fool?
- 54:25Speaker 3: Larry Bubbles Brown Show in San Francisco, the winery. He
- 54:28Speaker 3: does on Tuesdays. So I'm doing that one next Tuesday.
- 54:31Speaker 3: So yeah, one night.
- 54:32Speaker 1: So how come you don't go on tour with like
- 54:36Speaker 1: the Soupmaster or the Soup Nazi or fucking... Who does.
- 54:43Speaker 3: Not wear the ribbon?
- 54:44Speaker 1: Who does not wear the ribbon? That guy or the
- 54:47Speaker 1: black dude. Fucking the one he thought was... Who told
- 54:50Speaker 1: you to put the bomb on? Well, actually.
- 54:52Speaker 2: That's not a bad idea because my friend who died,
- 54:56Speaker 2: Bobby Carradine, who I dedicated this book to.
- 54:58Speaker 1: He's the one that relates with David Carradine? Revenge of
- 55:00Speaker 1: the Nerds.
- 55:01Speaker 2: He was a really good friend of mine. He's in
- 55:03Speaker 2: the beginning. He... This is actually... Yeah, this is him.
- 55:10Speaker 2: Bob from Revenge of the Nerds. We lost him. Sweetest guy.
- 55:14Speaker 1: Loved him.
- 55:15Speaker 2: So he would... he would do conventions, but they'd have
- 55:19Speaker 2: all the nerds except for the guy from ER, I
- 55:22Speaker 2: think Anthony Edwards. So people go, I get it. You're
- 55:24Speaker 2: all the nerds. So if I went like, I, I,
- 55:28Speaker 2: the only other convention I did besides Tennessee, which I
- 55:31Speaker 2: don't consider a convention, they were trying to have cosplayers.
- 55:34Speaker 2: So one guy walking around with a Mario hat, Hey,
- 55:37Speaker 2: I'm a cosplayer and no one else was there. But, um, uh,
- 55:44Speaker 2: If like I was with other Seinfeld characters, oh, let's
- 55:47Speaker 2: get them all. Like we were trying to do a
- 55:49Speaker 2: thing with me and the guy who punched me in
- 55:51Speaker 2: Dumb and Dumber. Oh, I have a Dumb and Dumber
- 55:54Speaker 2: picture with him punching me.
- 55:55Speaker 1: That would be so cool.
- 55:56Speaker 2: People would love to get both of us. But yeah,
- 55:59Speaker 2: that was my line.
- 56:01Speaker 1: So what happened to that? He died, of course.
- 56:05Speaker 2: I don't mean to put Mike down. The other thing
- 56:07Speaker 2: he booked me in, there was a screening at a,
- 56:10Speaker 2: what's it called, a film festival of Dumb and Dumber.
- 56:13Speaker 2: And they were supposed to have me and Mike Storer
- 56:14Speaker 2: who punched me in the phone booth. Mike pulled out
- 56:17Speaker 2: and Bobby Carradine took my place. He wasn't in Dumb
- 56:21Speaker 2: and Dumber. It made no sense. So they showed Dumb
- 56:23Speaker 2: and Dumber. Here they are, Fred Stoller and Robert Carradine
- 56:26Speaker 2: who wasn't in the movie. And he kept saying, let's
- 56:29Speaker 2: wrap this up.
- 56:30Speaker 3: I'm hungry.
- 56:30Speaker 2: And they were asking questions about Dumb and Dumber to
- 56:34Speaker 2: a guy who wasn't in it. And then we were
- 56:38Speaker 2: there the whole weekend. And we were in the lobby
- 56:41Speaker 2: of a movie theater. And it made no sense.
- 56:45Speaker 1: Lewis from Revenge of the Nerds, bro.
- 56:47Speaker 2: I still haven't seen Revenge of the Nerds.
- 56:49Speaker 3: You ever done conventions with, what's it called, Barry Sobel?
- 56:55Speaker 3: Why does everybody laugh at Barry Sobel?
- 56:57Speaker 2: Well, first of all, that's random. Why would Barry Sobel
- 57:01Speaker 2: be in a convention?
- 57:02Speaker 1: He was in Revenge of the Nerds.
- 57:04Speaker 3: I think part two, right?
- 57:06Speaker 2: They couldn't stand him, the other nerds.
- 57:08Speaker 1: For reals?
- 57:09Speaker 2: Sobel. Have you dealt with Sobel?
- 57:11Speaker 1: Not in a movie.
- 57:12Speaker 2: Oh, he must have. I shouldn't say. Oh, yeah.
- 57:15Speaker 1: We know.
- 57:15Speaker 3: We know Sobel.
- 57:16Speaker 2: We know what he... Yeah.
- 57:17Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 57:17Speaker 2: He tried to sign.
- 57:19Speaker 1: Him up to a skateboard team.
- 57:21Speaker 2: He would be in a prison with Sobel and it
- 57:23Speaker 2: would be.
- 57:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 57:24Speaker 2: You know. You know what I'm trying to say.
- 57:26Speaker 3: Well, we know Sobel forever. One time.
- 57:29Speaker 3: He's a fan, you know, he's a fan of, I mean,
- 57:32Speaker 3: we've been homies for a long time.
- 57:34Speaker 2: So, all right, let me, I'm probably going to go.
- 57:35Speaker 1: You've never been on a podcast, huh?
- 57:38Speaker 3: I hit him up, I called him, he was like,
- 57:41Speaker 3: I'm in England right now, Rizzo, I can't come.
- 57:44Speaker 2: So, okay, so with Sobel, you know, when I quit
- 57:47Speaker 2: opening for Norm, Sobel took my place.
- 57:49Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, Sobel did work with Norm.
- 57:50Speaker 2: And he would fight with Keith Reznor. They would both
- 57:52Speaker 2: open for Norm.
- 57:53Speaker 3: With Keith Reznor?
- 57:54Speaker 2: Yeah, and Norm loved that they were both fighting. Like
- 57:58Speaker 2: Sobel Punch.
- 57:58Speaker 1: Is that the guy that has Hamburger Syndrome?
- 58:00Speaker 3: That's a... He's from Orange County. He has a.
- 58:05Speaker 2: All right, let me tell a quick story. So we
- 58:07Speaker 2: were doing Irvine. So Fred Willard and his wife, rest
- 58:10Speaker 2: in peace, Fred Willard was a classic genius. So we
- 58:15Speaker 2: ate at some restaurant right next to the Irvine Improv.
- 58:19Speaker 3: Baker's Burgers.
- 58:20Speaker 2: Something like that, yes. So Keith Reznor was there. And
- 58:24Speaker 2: so Norm goes, I don't mean to make everyone uncomfortable,
- 58:27Speaker 2: but Keith here is autistic. And Fred Willard goes, what
- 58:33Speaker 2: the hell does that mean? And Keith goes, I got
- 58:35Speaker 2: no empathy. It's like Rodney, I got no empathy. He goes,
- 58:38Speaker 2: I have no empathy. My friend broke his ankle. I
- 58:41Speaker 2: didn't care. I thought that was funny.
- 58:45Speaker 3: Now Keith Reza is.
- 58:46Speaker 1: You know what it looks like? It's his haircut. Like
- 58:50Speaker 1: that black day that I see.
- 58:52Speaker 2: So Sobel.
- 58:53Speaker 1: I stamp and I stumble. Walk away, don't try to
- 58:58Speaker 1: walk away. And I stumble.
- 59:00Speaker 2: I know Sobel forever. Yeah, he's only in this business
- 59:03Speaker 2: could someone like me call someone else a character.
- 59:06Speaker 3: That guy's a character for sure.
- 59:09Speaker 2: Yes. Fred looks like he could be Rick Glassman's dad.
- 59:15Speaker 2: You know who people say I look like, which is
- 59:17Speaker 2: not flattering? When I saw what he looks like, R.L. Stine.
- 59:22Speaker 2: Do you know who he is?
- 59:23Speaker 3: The creator of Goosebumps.
- 59:25Speaker 2: Yeah. Maybe I could get laid with that.
- 59:27Speaker 3: No, you don't look like Ariel Stein, bro.
- 59:29Speaker 2: Someone said that.
- 59:30Speaker 1: I don't know. You look like Humphrey Bogart if you
- 59:34Speaker 1: were dying of AIDS.
- 59:39Speaker 3: You look like a lot of Mexican uncles. You could
- 59:42Speaker 3: pass as a Mexican.
- 59:44Speaker 2: I could look like a Mexican uncle? That sounds like...
- 59:47Speaker 2: You look like the.
- 59:48Speaker 1: Kid from Angels in the Outfield right now.
- 59:51Speaker 2: Angels in the Outfield. Who?
- 59:53Speaker 1: What kid?
- 59:54Speaker 2: I don't know who that is.
- 59:56Speaker 1: You can lie and say you are the kid now.
- 59:59Speaker 1: Angels in the Outfield.
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: That movie's not that. Is it that old, bro?
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: Fuck. It's that old. He could say I'm the kid
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: and make money.
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: You know, I think I told you. So you had Warriors.
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: Warriors. I love Warriors.
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: There was a guy in it.
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: The orphans. Who goes.
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: That looked like me if I had a droopy eye
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: in Warriors.
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: The orphans. Leader of the orphans.
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: And so this guy recognizes me or thinks he does
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: at Farmer's Market. He goes, were you in the Warriors?
- 1:00:25Speaker 2: I go, no. He goes, you sure? Like, oh, yeah,
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: you're right.
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: I know, right?
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: I forgot. I was in a seminal Walter Hill movie.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: Yes. You know.
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: I've been in so much. Thanks for reminding me.
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: Somebody say you're like Brad Stein. You know who that is?
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: Yes. He's like a Christian conservative. He's like Dennis Leary
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: if he was right-wing with no jokes. Just pacing back
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: and forth. Hey, I'm conservative. Fuck you. I'm conservative. That's
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: his act.
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: Maybe it's not as good as that. But you know
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: who Brad Stein is?
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: No.
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: No, no, no.
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: So many years ago, spoke about a disaster conventions.
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: Brad Stein, I guess.
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: Yes.
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: So one time, this was a disaster, Felipe. I got
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: booked at a college convention where you do your act,
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: and then the next day you sit in a booth
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: like you're Charlie Brown, you know, with the psychiatrist trying
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: to get jobs. So I bombed, and this is where
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: I came up with this joke. I used to go,
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: women shmemen. And they booed me like I'm sexist.
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: Boo.
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: They booed me when they.
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: Said women shmimmin'. Women shmimmin'..
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: I went, women shmimmin'. Boo. You're sexist. We're tired of
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: being called shmimmin'..
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: And I thought Shane Gillett had a bad bro.
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: I was going to say that. Women shmimmin' was so
- 1:01:46Speaker 3: bad back in the day.
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: They booed me in Nebraska for going women shmimmin'. So
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: then the next day, you sit in this fucking booth
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: and try to get jobs. From doing the show and
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: all these college convention people, no one booked me. And
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: it's humiliating enough to bomb the night before. Now I'm
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: sitting there not getting any college offers. But Brad Stein
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: was there, and his expression is, I'm animated. I'm high energy.
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: So I should have had that.
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: In my book.
- 1:02:16Speaker 3: That was a sound point the whole time.
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: Yes, I'm animated. I'm high energy. I'm crazy.
- 1:02:21Speaker 3: I don't call women shmimmons.
- 1:02:24Speaker 2: Freddie, was your college gig worse than yours? San Antonio gigs. Oh,
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: he remembers. Peter Brennan is from the Kevin Brennan pod.
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: Not Kevin Brennan. Neil Brennan. No, no, Kevin Brennan. Do
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: you know who Kevin Brennan is?
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: Yeah, Neil Brennan's brother.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: Yes, he's funny. I did his thing yesterday. So Shane's
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: joke was hack anyway. Oh, yeah. See, I'm ahead of
- 1:02:51Speaker 2: my time because you have all these people.
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: You walked so Shane couldn't run.
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: Yes. People don't realize, you know, I'm controversial. What's his name?
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: I said that. I don't apologize. I'm Crystalia. I'm a badass.
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: But I was doing that as the thrill seeker. I
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: said that. I said that. I'm like Geraldo. I'm controversial.
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: Schmemann was like basically calling a woman a whore back then.
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: Was it?
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: No. I made up women shmimmin' and they booed it.
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: No one said women shmimmin'. I'm sorry to say that now. No,
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: it wasn't a thing.
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: I thought you said black people can't shwimmin'..
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: Oh, man. Crystal Lee is a chump. There's this comedian.
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: He died.
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: He used to call everyone a hump. He's a hump.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: What a hump.
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: Have you ever heard the expression, what a hump?
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: Yeah, in that movie, Bronx Tale. Bronx Tale? In that
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: movie called... Um, Johnny, Donnie Brosco. Oh, what a hump.
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: Oh, that was a great move. What's her name? And
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: H was so sexy in it. She looked, you know, uh, yeah,
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: that was a good movie. You know, it's a movie.
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: I had a, it's going to say AIDS. I had
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: COVID for the first time in February, you know, uh,
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: and I was watching movies. I'm a cat. I, I,
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: that Bronx movie, not from Boston with, uh, Ed Harris, uh,
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: So good. Gone Baby Gone.
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: Gone Baby Gone.
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: Did you ever see that?
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: No.
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: I see that. Oh, it was Ben Affleck's brother.
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: Ben Affleck has a brother?
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: Yeah, Casey Affleck.
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: Casey Affleck.
- 1:04:30Speaker 3: Oh!
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: Schmemann rights.
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: Schmemanns don't deserve rights, bro.
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: Talk about a retired skateboarder. Barry Sobel. walks around like
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: he's my age later, 60s, with his pants down his ass.
- 1:04:45Speaker 3: It's called swag, Fred.
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: And he still thinks he's Vanilla Ice.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: Well, Barry Sobo was like the first... He was before
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: Gary Owen, right? He was kind of like the.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: First white boy. So Gary Owen, I did this movie
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: called Little Man. Wow, it's already 20 years ago. So
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: in the hotel, I... We'd have a lot of days
- 1:05:07Speaker 2: off because it rained in Vancouver. And the three women,
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: the girl from, what's that show called? Family Guy. I
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: forgot her name in Mad TV.
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: Alex Borstein.
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: Yeah, she was there with, what's her name? I can't
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: think of names. Vanessa Washington or Kerry Washington.
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: She's just a woman to me.
- 1:05:29Speaker 2: And so I would be by myself and they'd be
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: in the elevator saying, hey, we're all going to a
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: club later. And I'd like to go or a movie,
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: and they wouldn't include me. So Gary Owen, they did
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: the night of stand-up. Everyone from Little Man was doing
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: their act. And Tracy, I was going to say McGrady,
- 1:05:49Speaker 2: Tracy Morgan was there. And what's his name? Gary Owen
- 1:05:54Speaker 2: was annihilating. When he talked to him, he talks normal.
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: But then he was talking like Eminem. You know, I
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: can't do it. I didn't understand.
- 1:06:02Speaker 3: He was killing it, huh?
- 1:06:06Speaker 2: He was, yeah, but, you know, like doing that, like
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: sounding like Chris Rock or something. It didn't. Do you
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: like Gary Owen?
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: Yeah, we work together.
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: Where'd you work?
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: I worked together with him in Kansas with Earthquake, Cedric,
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: Eddie Griffin, and me. Wow.
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: Solid lineup. You know what that sounds like? When I was,
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: I told this story yesterday on a, when I used
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: to do the Thrill Seeker jokes back in the day.
- 1:06:34Speaker 2: Sam Kennison wanted me to tour with him. He had
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: the outlaws of comedy. They were all, hey, we're badasses.
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: And then I'd go up and go, I drank milk
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: that expired yesterday. But I turned it down. Ernest goes
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: to camp.
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: You were in that one?
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: No.
- 1:06:52Speaker 3: Well, somebody said Jim Varney, which is Ernest.
- 1:06:54Speaker 2: What was I going to say?
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: Did you know him, Jim Varney?
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: Never met him.
- 1:06:59Speaker 3: He has a cool little documentary on YouTube. Man, they
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: were basically calling him the first.
- 1:07:05Speaker 3: Not influencer, but because he.
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: Blue Color of Comedy?
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: No, he didn't do that, but he was doing his
- 1:07:10Speaker 3: characters before.
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: Pee Wee Herman.
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: No, no, no, Jim Varney. He was doing like his
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: Ernest character.
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: Yeah, like the way Pee Wee Herman did the thing.
- 1:07:18Speaker 3: And basically to the point where it got so big
- 1:07:20Speaker 3: as a commercial character that they gave him the movies,
- 1:07:24Speaker 3: you know? Because he was hired by a commercial agency
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: to do commercials for so many different brands. And then
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: the character was so famous. It's basically like the Caveman characters, remember?
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: Like Geico Caveman? So it was kind of like that,
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: and they gave him the movies.
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: So you've done that Megacon. Weren't you supposed to be
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: another one with a bunch of Seinfeld guys?
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: Yeah, what happened was they had a thing where.
- 1:07:49Speaker 2: It was going to be me, Steve Heitner. I wrote
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: the soup episode.
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: Steve Heitner wrote the soup.
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: Yeah, Kenny Banya. I wrote that episode.
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: Kenny Banya.
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: The round team.
- 1:07:59Speaker 2: Yeah, the soup Nazi. And what's his name? There was
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: a fourth one there.
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: Oh, Peterman.
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: And you go to a restaurant in New Jersey, Italian restaurant,
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: and you just eat. And people pay extras to sit
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: at the VIP table, but... Each one of us had
- 1:08:19Speaker 2: our own VIP table. Mine wasn't as much as the
- 1:08:23Speaker 2: soup Nazi. And then it kind of didn't work out.
- 1:08:27Speaker 3: Yes.
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: And I was very relieved. Sometimes I feel I won
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: the lottery when I get out of something. I really
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: wanted to not do Tennessee. I was getting bad vibes.
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: Why did I agree to three planes? Oh, my God.
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: Have you done any of these.
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: Meat and grease that have gone really well for you?
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: I haven't done a lot of meat and grease. Oh, yeah.
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: You know, like the one you do when they take
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: pictures that have gone really well.
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: No, but you know what I did that really was amazing?
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: What was it?
- 1:08:58Speaker 2: I was in a... I guess, an animated miniseries. Again,
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: I keep going to Isaac. Isaac, do you know Over
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: the Garden Wall? No. Oh, you would love it. Well,
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: maybe he grew up. He's muscular now and he doesn't,
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: he's not into animation, but it's a cult show. Actually,
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: it's a Halloween thing. It's really freaky. Does anyone know
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: Over the Garden Wall? Well, I had a little part
- 1:09:23Speaker 2: as Fred the Horse.
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: Again, Fred, that's pretty cool.
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: Yes, I've been named Fred if you go to my IMDB. Yes,
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: it's a cult hit animated miniseries that did really well.
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: And yeah, I said I want to steal. So the
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: guy who created Over the Garden Wall, why would it?
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: The parlor?
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: Why would anyone go to the parlor for? There's nobody
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: in the parlor. Certainly nobody after your money.
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:09:53Speaker 2: So they had a thing somewhere in Anaheim where it
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: was the creator of Over the Garden Wall, some of
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: the illustrators, some of the voice people. They were lined
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: up for six hours dressed as people from a character
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: from Over the Garden Wall. And I made like 1,100
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: for that day, and I only had to go to Anaheim.
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: So that was an amazing experience.
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: That's so cool.
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: I never heard of that one. You?
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: No, no. Did anyone here of Over the Garden Wall?
- 1:10:23Speaker 3: So this came out 12 years ago.
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: 1,100 people. Oh, yeah.
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: Hey, look at the rating, 8.7 on IMDb.
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: That's good. Let me check it out. 98% Rotten Tomato,
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: that good?
- 1:10:33Speaker 3: That's really good. That's like top, top ratings.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: It was, yeah, it was very, I won't go into
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: the story. Being that Fred is from Brooklyn, who was
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: his favorite comic growing up?
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: God.
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: You know, growing up, I'm so old, we didn't have
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: comedy nerds. It wasn't a thing. Like, I was a
- 1:10:57Speaker 2: very depressed, shy teenager, and I didn't know what I
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: was going to do in the real world. I loved
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: character actors. I didn't know how you did it. I
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: actually liked David Brenner. Did you ever see David Brenner?
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: I went with him. You did? My ass. Yeah, an Aspen. Wow.
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: He was, I liked him. So I didn't, I liked,
- 1:11:23Speaker 2: we weren't like, Actually, I love Cheech and Chong and
- 1:11:25Speaker 2: Monty Python records. But I went to a comedy club
- 1:11:31Speaker 2: with my oldest sister called Pips in Brooklyn.
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: Pips in Brooklyn?
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: Yeah, and Richard Lewis and Billy Crystal were the acts
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: before they made it.
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: That's so cool.
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: And I remember Billy Crystal was talking about season Nick
- 1:11:43Speaker 2: tickets and having a daughter. I don't know who he is,
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: but he can make a living. So someone explained there's
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: a club in Brooklyn. Manhattan called The Improvisation. Freddie Prinze
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: went there. Jimmy Walker, they did their act. They went
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: on The Tonight Show. Then they got on a sitcom.
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: I said, that's how you do it. So I was
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: not funny. So I just started hanging out at The Improv.
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: So I wasn't the comedy nerd.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't.
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: But I remember the first time I saw Jimmy Walker...
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: on Good Times. They said, he's skinny and funny looking
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: like me. And I never saw anyone like myself on TV.
- 1:12:20Speaker 3: And he's still tour to this day, right? Jimmy Walker?
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: Yeah, bro.
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: He's still a fucking dynamite.
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: Yeah, he loves stand-up, yes.
- 1:12:28Speaker 3: Wait, they added that from over there? That's fucking cool, dude.
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: What the fuck?
- 1:12:33Speaker 2: That was my dream, yeah. I just would see funny
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: looking people on the Bob Newhart show. Did you ever
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: see the Bob Newhart show? just like he was a
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: psychiatrist and patients. I thought, oh, I could be a
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: weird guy, you know, getting therapy. I remember I had
- 1:12:52Speaker 2: a therapist who said, I said, I just want to
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: be the guy who has three lines in a movie.
- 1:12:57Speaker 2: Who's that guy? I want to see more of him.
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: He goes, you should have bigger dreams. And this was
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: a shrink that was charging $ 15 a session. Elijah Wood
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: played the voice of the main character in Over the
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: Garden Wall. Correct. They had the guy from Monty Python
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: in it. I think John Cleese was in it.
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: When you guys were recording, when you guys, when you
- 1:13:18Speaker 3: record a lot of these voices, are you in the
- 1:13:20Speaker 3: same room with the other actors or is it just
- 1:13:21Speaker 3: you like in a booth?
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: It's both. When I did Handy Manny, Tom Kenny was there.
- 1:13:27Speaker 2: You'd have an ensemble. But after, why do I keep
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: saying AIDS? After the, after what's it called?
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: COVID.
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: They had just one at a time. But sometimes it's
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: an ensemble. When I did Penguins in Madagascar, it was
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: like morning radio. Like John DiMaggio from Futurama, they're just
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: doing shtick. So sometimes you're with a few people, sometimes
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: just by yourself.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: That's so cool. I remember.
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: Where can people buy your book?
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: It's on Amazon. It's only $ 9. 99. I want to do
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: more of those. It's the first issue.
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: Are you signing them and then mailing them or someone
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: else mailing them?
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: No, if someone asks for a signed one, I'll figure out,
- 1:14:10Speaker 2: but no one wants one signed.
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: Are you mailing them out of your house or someone
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: else doing it for you?
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: This is off Amazon.
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: So you don't have no books on YouTube.
- 1:14:21Speaker 2: I do have, if I could figure out how to
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: do it. I have a label maker, but I don't
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: know how to do it. But, yeah, I may sign some.
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: Maybe I'll go back to Tennessee. I'll go back. I'll
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: do just as good at Tennessee, even if there's not
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: a convention going on.
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: The life of a Hollywood troublemaker.
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: It's not PC, it says.
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: Fred Stoner's World of Wonders.
- 1:14:47Speaker 3: I like the cover art.
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: 50 cents.
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: Because it looks like the Creepshow kind of cover art, right?
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: Yes, it looks like Creepshow. It's like Mad Magazine style.
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: It's like all that.
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: Tells of the dark side and all that stuff.
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: It's cool.
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: Did you ever... Stay at the Comedy Strips.
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: You don't want to know. Freddie, did Norm's call to
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: your podcast with Felipe as a guest make it to
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: a documentary?
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: No. I'm in the documentary, but all I do is
- 1:15:15Speaker 2: sit there when he talks about he's fat, and I nod.
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: So I didn't get... Actually, I have an audible called
- 1:15:22Speaker 2: My Friend Norm that people seem to like.
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: Yeah, it's about working with Norm MacDonald.
- 1:15:30Speaker 3: So when you guys would do your shows after the shows,
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: what was kind of like the meal you guys would
- 1:15:35Speaker 3: eat after a show or like order or stuff like that?
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: With Norm?
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. I don't know if we did after shows eating.
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: Like late night stuff?
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: Basically, I didn't know he was sick and under a
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: lot of medication. So basically, you'd have to kind of
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: hang out. This was during the first Trump thing, and
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: you'd have to watch shows he liked. Come on, you
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: hang out. So he loved, you would have to watch
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: the debates, and you would just hang out in the
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: room until he fell asleep.
- 1:16:11Speaker 3: The hotel room.
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: Yes, and then I'd sneak out. But we would eat
- 1:16:18Speaker 2: before the shows. He would have lots of sodas and
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: root beers, and we were in, what was the... What
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: was that place in Portland? Helium. Yeah, Heliconica. Yeah, and
- 1:16:34Speaker 2: he wanted milkshakes.
- 1:16:35Speaker 3: My ass. Because we eat a lot of Taco Bell.
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: I think Taco Bell is one of the main foods
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: we eat after shows. When we get to the hotel,
- 1:16:46Speaker 3: we're like, oh, what's a Taco Bell?
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: Yeah, he liked... He liked the food, yeah. I remember
- 1:16:59Speaker 2: his story. He was in the Kentucky Fried Chicken and
- 1:17:05Speaker 2: some Mexican, no, no, some black guy recognized him. It's
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: the colonel. It's the colonel. Give him free food. It's
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: a colonel. And the black guy working there. No, he
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: ain't the colonel. He didn't understand what he meant. I
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: like that story. Hamburger. That's funny.
- 1:17:26Speaker 3: And Norm Macdonald has a fucking pigeon in the Mike
- 1:17:29Speaker 3: Tyson show? Fucking hilarious.
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: He was in the Oracle for a while. The Oracle?
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: No, the.
- 1:17:39Speaker 3: The space show?
- 1:17:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: It's raining outside.
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: I know, I love the rain. I love it. Except
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: driving back on the 405 home in rush hour.
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: Where do you live at now?
- 1:17:51Speaker 2: I live, you know, by... You don't live in Melrose
- 1:17:54Speaker 2: no more? No, I was in an apartment 29 years,
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: so I'm living by, like, the San Gabriel, like, you know, like, by,

- 1:19:10Speaker 2: Yeah when we were filming the Norm show he had

- 1:19:27Speaker 2: he was an athlete he played football and Artie kept
- 1:19:30Speaker 2: beating him in tennis I don't understand this shit and

- 1:19:36Speaker 2: you win we gotta go back and do the show
- 1:19:38Speaker 2: So it was a lot of fun. Yeah.
- 1:19:40Speaker 3: When you moved out of your apartment after 29 years,
- 1:19:42Speaker 3: did it look the same as when you first moved in?
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: How low was your rent? Did you have rent control?
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I had rent control.
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: How much did you repay?
- 1:19:49Speaker 2: My landlord was the worst because- They're.
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: Trying to kick you out, huh?
- 1:19:52Speaker 2: You know, he wanted the.
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: What were you paying though at that one time?
- 1:19:54Speaker 2: I started at 850 and 29 years later, 1600.
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: That's fucking nothing, bro. What are people paying around you?
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: Oh, $ 3, 000 at least in the Fairfax area, at least.
- 1:20:06Speaker 3: They're trying to kick you out, huh?
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: Well, no, he wanted me at any time I wanted
- 1:20:09Speaker 2: something fixed.
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: We're coming after your cats.
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: When I wanted something fixed, it's like, if it's not
- 1:20:13Speaker 2: costing him money, he didn't care. He wanted me out,
- 1:20:16Speaker 2: you know, to a whole. So then finally, you would
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: think when it started in 95, but then it went up,
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: you know, every year. Finally, you think when I'm out,
- 1:20:28Speaker 2: he'd be happy because he could raise the rent. So
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: they had to demolish the whole place. He only gave
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: me $ 100 back from my, what's it called?
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: Deposit.
- 1:20:38Speaker 2: Because he goes, hey, there was a little rain on
- 1:20:41Speaker 2: the floor. There was this. They cutted it anyway.
- 1:20:44Speaker 3: They were going to do it anyways.
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:20:47Speaker 3: It's not like they're going to keep it the same.
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: How much is your room renting for now?
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: It's a lot. But according to all the... algorithms I'm on.
- 1:20:57Speaker 2: You only have 12, if you're over 60, you only
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: have 12 more summers, good ones. And they go, you're
- 1:21:02Speaker 2: in the youth of your senior years. But now, I'm
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: loving Central AC. I never had it. I never had it.
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: Somebody said that Norm Elwood, you playing racquetball, what happened there?
- 1:21:18Speaker 2: Did someone say that?
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: Yeah. So what happened?
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: We never played racquetball, so I don't remember being elbowed.
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: How about you said that one time Norm forgot his pads.
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So what's it called? So you guys,
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: I'm sure, did this. Two clubs in Arizona.
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: Yeah, the Improv and Laugh Out Loud. Stand Up Live
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: and Tempe Improv.
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: Okay, not an Improv. There's probably a good one in
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: the city. This was like in some... mall area where
- 1:21:55Speaker 2: there's nothing by it but this movie theater and you
- 1:21:58Speaker 2: stay in a condo which is like a senior living place.
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: I know what that place is.
- 1:22:01Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: Laughs on Limit.
- 1:22:05Speaker 3: Laughs in Tucson, right?
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: Laughs Cafe. Laughs Cafe, yeah.
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: There's like a TGIF place.
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: Gary Bynum.
- 1:22:12Speaker 2: There's a TGIF kind of place and a movie theater.
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: Gary Hood.
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: And nothing else around there. So, so Norm calls me
- 1:22:20Speaker 2: right before the show. He goes, what size pants do
- 1:22:22Speaker 2: you wear? I go, what? He goes, I forgot to
- 1:22:24Speaker 2: pack my fucking pants. I got to wear yours. It's
- 1:22:27Speaker 2: not going to fit you because you got to get
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: me pants. You got, you know, you see, when I
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: opened for Felipe, I didn't have to do any of these.
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: What size pants you wear?
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: Now 32 or 33.
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: Oh my God.
- 1:22:39Speaker 2: But Norm was big, you know, and I said, it's
- 1:22:41Speaker 2: not going to fit you. He goes, I, what am
- 1:22:43Speaker 2: I going to do? I don't have my pants. Like
- 1:22:45Speaker 2: you had to be his assistant. When you work with Felipe,
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: I'm sure Lisa took care of everything. Like, uh, You know,
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: we'd go to the hotel. He goes, you're the tech guy.
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: Set up the Wi-Fi. Or someone to recognize him. He goes, Freddy,
- 1:22:56Speaker 2: comp them. So he could escape. And he'd escape. And
- 1:22:59Speaker 2: I'm stuck with all these people.
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: Were you the tech guy?
- 1:23:02Speaker 2: I know how to do Wi-Fi.
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: What does that mean?
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: Is that true? You were ordering all the Ubers and
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: they're not paying you?
- 1:23:10Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. He'd always go like, you know, get the Uber,
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: you know. And I'd pay for them. And finally he said,
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: I'm sick of this. Give me your thing. He'd go,
- 1:23:21Speaker 2: I don't know how to do this shit. So I
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: finally said, give me your thing. And I see he's
- 1:23:26Speaker 2: got the app Uber, but it's not attached to the
- 1:23:29Speaker 2: bank thing. The credit card, all.
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: Right, all right.
- 1:23:32Speaker 2: I tried, you know. Did you invoice him? What's that?
- 1:23:36Speaker 3: Did you invoice him?
- 1:23:37Speaker 2: I think I got money back from Laurie Jo, who
- 1:23:40Speaker 2: did his stuff. You know, you don't want to make trouble,
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: but I was an idiot. But so I....
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:23:47Speaker 2: So I called the hotel. I said, is there a
- 1:23:51Speaker 2: pants store? Norm forgot his pants.
- 1:23:53Speaker 3: A pants store?
- 1:23:55Speaker 2: Yeah, whatever they're called. Clothes stores. Old Navy? There wasn't anything.
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: So he went up the whole weekend in his sweatpants.
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: When you would open for him, you would do 10 minutes,
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: he would do 45? No.
- 1:24:07Speaker 2: Norm was really weird, believe it or not, where He
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: would think he doesn't want to do a long set.
- 1:24:13Speaker 2: So he goes, you got to do an hour tonight.
- 1:24:15Speaker 2: I don't have an hour.
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: So you open up for an hour and do 15?
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: He would think he only wants to do 15. He would,
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: like when we were at Irvine, anyone hanging out, you
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: go up, you go up. Because he wanted, he didn't
- 1:24:26Speaker 2: want to have to do a long set. He wanted
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: to do the last time he could. But it turned
- 1:24:30Speaker 2: out he would do two hours anyway. So he always
- 1:24:32Speaker 2: did long sets.
- 1:24:33Speaker 3: Like he'd be just feeling it. He'd be feeling it
- 1:24:35Speaker 3: on stage and he just.
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:24:37Speaker 3: That's so cool, man. Crazy, yeah.
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I opened for Norm and Felipe, two different experiences.
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: I remember Felipe, we were in some hotel in Arizona,
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: and they have a buffet in the hotel, you know,
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: it was for some convention, but they kicked you out
- 1:24:55Speaker 2: thinking you're not part of this, but they let me eat.
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: You remember that?
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: I don't remember.
- 1:25:02Speaker 3: They tried to kick homeboy out last year. We were
- 1:25:05Speaker 3: in Cleveland at the coffee shop, remember? You're like, I'm
- 1:25:07Speaker 3: fucking staying at the hotel, dude.
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: You dumb bitch.
- 1:25:11Speaker 2: So we... So, okay, so I'll tell this. I think
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: you want to go last story or whatever.
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: Whatever story.
- 1:25:18Speaker 2: Okay, so like.
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: Make it a long story.
- 1:25:20Speaker 2: I didn't know what dabs were, so we were in Arizona.
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: We're doing dabs in the green room.
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: So I didn't know what it... Yeah, I'll do a dab.
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: So I.
- 1:25:30Speaker 2: was so annihilated where I didn't think I'd be able
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: to walk to the car, the guy driving me home. And, like,
- 1:25:38Speaker 2: I was in the hotel thinking, all right, I won't
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: be able to get to the airport tomorrow. You know
- 1:25:44Speaker 2: what I mean? I thought I'd have to cancel the plane,
- 1:25:46Speaker 2: pay for my own one. Do you remember this?
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:25:49Speaker 3: Three planes from Arizona to L.A.
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: What's up, Food Podcast? What time, bro? This fucking cholo
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: broke into the green room, bro.
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot about that. He kept calling me Seinfeld.
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: You don't know his name, bro. Greenberg. Fucking Seinfeld, I
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: want to take a fucking fleek out.
- 1:26:04Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, I remember he came in and was sitting
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: next to me and he looked like a Mexican. Was
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: it a Tempe? I don't know if you were there.
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: Tempe, bro, yeah.
- 1:26:13Speaker 3: Greenberg was right there. Anybody can just walk in.
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: I always say about stand-up comedy, like, You know, like
- 1:26:19Speaker 2: if Aerosmith is playing somewhere, you can't sit in the
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: green room. Hey, I'm a musician. I'm a local musician.
- 1:26:26Speaker 2: So when I would open for Norm, all these people
- 1:26:29Speaker 2: would sit in the green room and show up to
- 1:26:32Speaker 2: their girlfriends. I'm hanging out with Norm, so the green
- 1:26:36Speaker 2: room was always full. So one time I had to
- 1:26:40Speaker 2: do the dirty work at San Diego to tell Keith
- 1:26:42Speaker 2: Reznor he couldn't hang out in the green room. You
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: got to go. But yes. Yeah. Remember that guy kept
- 1:26:51Speaker 2: calling me Seinfeld or Greenberg? I remember when I worked.
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: In a- Did nobody stop you? So you saw him
- 1:26:56Speaker 3: too in there?
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: I was doing meeting Greenberg. He went in there. Yes.
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: Where's Seinfeld? Yes. You know how cholos are, bro. When
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: a cholo or a Mexican guy don't know your name,
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: they'll call you whatever show they know you from.
- 1:27:12Speaker 3: What's up, Drinking Josh?
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: Bro, that's fucking Lito Weapon guy.
- 1:27:15Speaker 2: You know, a few times when I opened for you, Felipe,
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: a few times when I opened for you, someone screamed out, yo,
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: clear eyes, because they thought I was Ben Stein. from
- 1:27:25Speaker 2: Clear Eyes commercial. Yo, he's Clear Eyes! And then, yeah,
- 1:27:34Speaker 2: I remember people would go, I asked you, Mexicans would go,
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: are you coming out on any shows? What are you
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: talking about? Am I gonna say I'm gay, come out
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: on a show? But they say you're gonna come.
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: You're coming out on any shows.
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: You know, racism. Who's racist?
- 1:27:50Speaker 3: You know, it's funny that you said that, like how
- 1:27:51Speaker 3: like fucking like comedy shows is like the only place
- 1:27:53Speaker 3: where like anybody can just walk to the green room
- 1:27:55Speaker 3: and talk to a comedian.
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: Just hang out.
- 1:27:57Speaker 3: You can't go backstage at a fucking concert, you know?
- 1:28:00Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:28:00Speaker 2: Hey, I'm a local guy. I'm a musician.
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: I'm going to hang out.
- 1:28:04Speaker 3: Can I open up for you? Can I do five minutes?
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: I'm going to hang out with Eminem.
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: Can my band do five minutes before you?
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: But it was really weird. Like all everywhere in the road,
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: just all the local guys would sit in the green room.
- 1:28:17Speaker 2: And bring their girlfriends.
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: Hey, it's Norm. What's up, fool? Don't forget to buy
