  He's a live collection of Sheldon and James award-winning
• 2:39
  comedy shorts all in I love that nice job.
• 2:54
  That's awesome. Man, thanks.
• 2:56
  That's very. Awesome.
• 2:57
  Yeah, it's a lot of fun doing the character's a lot of fun to
• 3:00
  do as well. I mean, I enjoy doing the
• 3:01
  character. We we worked on it from since
• 3:04
  the I created Sheldon back in 2015 from a from a friend of
• 3:10
  mine. We we talked to actually, the
• 3:11
  actual idea came from back back as far as 1976, because the in
• 3:18
  in 76. Have you ever heard of it in in
• 3:21
  Chicago a a radio place called the Loop?
• 3:25
  Absolutely. OK.
• 3:28
  I live downstate in Pontiac Dean.
• 3:30
  Oh, OK, well, I'm, I'm born, I'm born and raised Chicago.
• 3:32
  I was, I, I came to, I came to Dallas.
• 3:34
  I live in Dallas, TX right now, but it was since 81.
• 3:38
  But I was born in, I'm born in the 1960s.
• 3:40
  So that makes me 66. But, but when I was 16 years
• 3:44
  old, I, I came up with this deal on the loop where is a, is a
• 3:51
  April Fool's Day joke. And it was called Little Sheldon
• 3:55
  Mcsugan and Little Brown things that float in the water.
• 3:58
  And it was and, and I couldn't forget that I heard that it's
• 4:04
  just always funny because of and little brown things.
• 4:07
  Obviously, you know what that is.
• 4:09
  Right, right. And so it was an RES they kept
• 4:12
  singing. So years later, a friend of mine
• 4:14
  named Jason, I got together. We we were calling each other
• 4:17
  Sheldon all those years. And I said, you know what?
• 4:19
  I'm going to make this Sheldon into a real person.
• 4:22
  So I I trademarked it and put it together and knocked it out.
• 4:26
  And then I started playing and then one day I said, you know
• 4:28
  what, I need to make a film. So I started.
• 4:30
  The first one you'll see on the nuclear event that you look at
• 4:33
  is the is the best one. That is a short called School of
• 4:36
  Idiots. I saw that and when I when I
• 4:38
  looked up your stuff, because when you go, when I go and I
• 4:41
  share things. Whoops, hold on, let's stop
• 4:45
  sharing that. When I go where, where was it?
• 4:47
  I just I swear I saw it. Keep talking.
• 4:50
  I'll find it. That's OK at School of Idiots
• 4:52
  was the first one I did. I, I thought, I thought of when
• 4:55
  I did that. I thought of Cheech and Chong.
• 4:57
  Oh yeah. That's why I started out with
• 4:59
  Cheech and Chong. And then then I thought 3
• 5:01
  thudges with pies and then and fart jokes all all in the same 6
• 5:07
  1/2 minute deal. And, and if you watch it, you
• 5:11
  just can't stop watching it because it's, it's so it's so
• 5:14
  unbelievably funny. And so I didn't realize, you
• 5:17
  know, I just did did the thing and I and I and I, Beverly and
• 5:21
  my agent, I, I, you know, Beverly.
• 5:24
  Beverly. Beverly Brock.
• 5:25
  Yeah, Yeah, I'm going to send her the the film.
• 5:29
  But I, I was hesitant because, you know, a lot of females don't
• 5:33
  like slapsticks, so I wasn't sure if it wasn't sure if they
• 5:37
  wish she would actually like it or not.
• 5:38
  Yeah. And so I sent it to her and I
• 5:40
  said, let me see what? And I and I didn't think
• 5:43
  anything of it. And she said, Oh my God, you
• 5:44
  need to, you need to put these in the film festivals.
• 5:46
  That's how good these are. I said, really film festivals.
• 5:49
  I said, what is that? So she taught me all about film
• 5:51
  festivals. Well, the first time I submitted
• 5:55
  it, I won one. I won, I won, I won.
• 6:00
  I was like, what is going on here?
• 6:02
  So I I have no idea. So I started making more shorts.
• 6:07
  I mean, and there's if you look through all the other ones, I
• 6:09
  even made a black and white one. That's what's it's really it's
• 6:12
  called picture me this. It's basically me running around
• 6:18
  after James taking his picture. And it came from an old show
• 6:25
  back in the back in the day with Marty Feldman that was done that
• 6:30
  that no one ever even seen on television was a black and
• 6:33
  white. And basically Marty Feldman was
• 6:37
  in a clown house, but running after this poor man in the in
• 6:41
  Great Britain or London trying to take his picture.
• 6:44
  And wherever he went, he was taking his picture.
• 6:47
  And so including all the way down to where he goes into his
• 6:50
  house and he turns the TV on and there he is taking his picture
• 6:54
  from a television. So, so I so I went ahead and
• 6:57
  copied that from that thing. That was back in 1968.
• 7:03
  And I, I remembered it because it was so funny.
• 7:05
  I, I almost peed in my pants. It was not a funny one.
• 7:08
  I was like, I have to do this one.
• 7:11
  So but then I I kept submitting all these films to the film
• 7:16
  festivals and I won over 650 awards.
• 7:20
  Wow, OK, now you've just now you're the most award-winning
• 7:23
  actor producer directory we've ever had on our show.
• 7:26
  Nice job, Beverly. Wait, wait to hook us up with
• 7:28
  with Dean. That's fantastic.
• 7:30
  Man, Dean, yeah, that's amazing. Well, some, some of the awards
• 7:34
  are like I got, I got what it's called like an EGOT, but for for
• 7:38
  Indy. So basically we got the Grammy,
• 7:41
  the Oscars. I got several Oscars, several
• 7:44
  Emmys, several Tony, Grammy. Now the the Tony was kind of
• 7:52
  weird, but it was a screenplay Tony they call it, and the
• 7:54
  Grammy was a screenplay Grammy. So I don't know which is weird.
• 7:58
  So and so so back up. You have an Oscar.
• 8:02
  I've got well, I got indie Oscar.
• 8:04
  It's not the same thing as an OO, it's but.
• 8:07
  Equivalent for the independent films.
• 8:09
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've got more than one.
• 8:11
  Cool. Dude, it is.
• 8:12
  Yeah. Don't downplay that.
• 8:13
  That's outstanding. Wow, now you know an Oscar is
• 8:17
  actually very heavy. I one of the one of the awards I
• 8:20
  got, I I actually got there from the place to actually make the
• 8:23
  Oscar and it's let me show it to you real quick.
• 8:26
  It's OK, it's. Yes, please show us all your
• 8:30
  bling. Yes.
• 8:32
  That's cool, this is a real heavy piece, but this came from
• 8:35
  the exact place to actually make the Oscars and this is 1.
• 8:40
  Show that again. That is so.
• 8:42
  Cool man, that's. What's that say on the front
• 8:45
  here? We, we got, we've got, like I
• 8:47
  said, I, I didn't get you got to pay for these.
• 8:49
  You're not. You're not free of four.
• 8:53
  You've been. You weren't the Lord, but by the
• 8:55
  way, now you got to pay for it. That's funny.
• 8:58
  That's funny. But.
• 9:01
  But still, man, it's cool. Well, not it's not just here.
• 9:05
  I mean, my biggest, most most popular places, India, believe
• 9:10
  it or not, India, I've won probably, I don't know, 250
• 9:16
  awards in India alone. Wow.
• 9:19
  The the yeah, people in India love Sheldon and and the
• 9:22
  Philippine island. I have a friend of mine working
• 9:25
  working worked for me and in in there.
• 9:28
  And then I asked him, his name is Archie.
• 9:29
  I says, Archie, what are you? Who are you watching on TV?
• 9:32
  You. I said, that's awesome watching
• 9:35
  me on TV. Are you kidding me?
• 9:37
  Nope. Everybody watch Sheldon.
• 9:38
  Everybody loves Sheldon. I said, yeah, that's funny
• 9:41
  stuff. So it's it's always fun to do
• 9:45
  shelter. It's always.
• 9:47
  We have a couple of let's see, we got one.
• 9:51
  This one is that's one that came from Big Ben is London.
• 9:56
  This is from London. Oh.
• 9:58
  That's really cool, that is. Way cool.
• 10:00
  Yeah, that we got. We've got some from Hong Kong.
• 10:05
  Now let me ask you this Dean. Does that star signify the
• 10:09
  independent? Side I don't know what the star
• 10:12
  is actually, honestly. Because I noticed they're both
• 10:14
  stars at the top and they're from two different places.
• 10:17
  You. Have stars in all of them,
• 10:18
  actually. That must signify the
• 10:20
  independent side versus the Grammy or not the Grammy, the
• 10:23
  Oscar. Something the actual?
• 10:24
  Yeah, yeah. I wonder if that's their symbol.
• 10:27
  It could, it could be I, I don't even know.
• 10:29
  The rich thing is an Oscar for Indy or, or, or an Emmy.
• 10:35
  I've won so many of these. I don't I I just got stopped.
• 10:37
  Counting, I was going to say until you started, you're in
• 10:40
  them all now you know they exist, right?
• 10:41
  But. But but here's the kicker.
• 10:43
  It's not on just one film. It's on all of my film.
• 10:46
  That's amazing, man. It's.
• 10:48
  Not amazing. I, I submit all my films when I
• 10:50
  get rewards on all my film, it's not just one.
• 10:53
  It's just like, and I got both people.
• 10:55
  It's just and then and then I create another character.
• 10:58
  And as you'll see, I'm on YouTube just for fun.
• 11:01
  He's he's called, he's called the Maher MACHER Maher the
• 11:06
  mocker. OK, so the mocker is it's
• 11:10
  completely different character. And if you look look it up on
• 11:13
  the YouTube, a little more guttural humor.
• 11:18
  Yeah, a little little more guttural humor.
• 11:21
  And basically he's more of a Chicago accent, Chicago, New
• 11:28
  York accent. I wear I wear a mustache and
• 11:30
  glasses and he's. I did.
• 11:34
  I did see him on your. I did see him on your YouTube
• 11:36
  page. Yep.
• 11:37
  I'm scrolling through your face. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, yeah, I'm
• 11:40
  scrolling through your Facebook photos right now as you share
• 11:43
  your life resume with us. Which is?
• 11:44
  Is that the wife? That's my wife, yes.
• 11:47
  Hello, wife. Hello wife shout out.
• 11:50
  Shout out shout out to the missus.
• 11:52
  Here's something I noticed on his YouTube page, Chris.
• 11:55
  OK. So you we noticed you had
• 11:58
  107,000 subscribers. One thing that I like to see is
• 12:01
  how many views people have. He has 58 videos, which makes
• 12:07
  sense because you're making basically short movies, right?
• 12:10
  Or full length movies. Some of them are an hour long,
• 12:13
  right? He has almost 3 million.
• 12:15
  Views, right, which which jives which jives with his subscribers
• 12:19
  and we've talked reason why MMM brings that up Sheldon, is we
• 12:22
  refuse to pay for followers and subscribers and for views.
• 12:26
  So we've done everything on this show organically, 198 episodes.
• 12:29
  It's all been organic growth like we've haven't paid for
• 12:32
  anything. So but when we see people that
• 12:35
  come on the show, not you, but we've seen people out there that
• 12:39
  that have 100,000 views and they'll have or I'm sorry,
• 12:41
  100,000 subscribers and they'll have like 20,000 views.
• 12:44
  So that just screams I bought subscribers Where, where, where
• 12:49
  Yours is legit. It's like you have the
• 12:51
  subscribers and you have the views that coincide with that.
• 12:54
  So that gives you even more credibility as an artist because
• 12:58
  your stuff is genuine and real. It's not.
• 13:00
  You didn't go in and buy stuff. You actually just grew this
• 13:02
  thing because if you're fanbase and people love you, which is
• 13:04
  fantastic man. You can tell people are super
• 13:09
  engaged. Yeah, everybody, everywhere I
• 13:10
  go. I went to the Oscar, an Oscar
• 13:12
  party recently to Elton Johns. Yeah, All right.
• 13:15
  On. Yeah, and and that was it was
• 13:18
  kind of cool. You know, you walk in the door
• 13:19
  and you you get to see a lot of a listers.
• 13:21
  But but but I was well, it was kind of weird.
• 13:26
  But the first thing is when I walked in the door.
• 13:28
  Have have you all ever been there?
• 13:30
  No. No.
• 13:30
  OK, no, so you walk in the door I and then I when I walked
• 13:34
  through the red carpet, I didn't realize it was TVTV or TV.
• 13:38
  What do you call it? The cameras on and I, I walked
• 13:42
  on and as I, as I walked down there and I had one camera in my
• 13:45
  face and I said hi and I walked, kept on walking.
• 13:48
  Well, couple days later I noticed a couple of friends of
• 13:50
  mine came up to me and says, Hey, I saw you on on the red
• 13:53
  carpet and, and, and Oscar, as I said, you did.
• 13:56
  I, I didn't realize, really realize that the cameras were
• 13:59
  on. So over a billion people saw me
• 14:01
  while I was out there. That was wow.
• 14:04
  And that was, but then I met a guy, I met a guy there that his
• 14:08
  name was Kurt Young. And he, he gave, he's given me
• 14:13
  an opportunity to do a PBS A/B TTV show.
• 14:17
  Oh sweet. So that in fact that's what
• 14:21
  that's my 4 O clock appointment today.
• 14:22
  We are we just I just signed the NDA.
• 14:25
  So he's got a he's, he owns a New Mexico film industry out
• 14:30
  there in, in Albuquerque. And he was, you know, the
• 14:33
  studio. And so I didn't know who the guy
• 14:37
  was, but he and I hit it off. We were really good friends and,
• 14:39
  and all of a sudden now I'm going to be starring in a big
• 14:43
  television show in Hollywood. So that's awesome.
• 14:47
  Congratulations. I just have kind of cool so.
• 14:50
  And when does that, when is it? I know you sent an NDA, so
• 14:54
  obviously you can't let go into big details, but it's it's
• 14:56
  something that's coming soon. Well, we're, we're we're going
• 15:00
  to probably shoot, I think he was planning on shooting
• 15:02
  something in June. So like, like the pilot and then
• 15:06
  from there with whoever picks up, whoever picks up the pilot,
• 15:09
  we'll go from there. You know, OK, so I'm not, I've
• 15:12
  never done a television show. I've been on.
• 15:14
  I've been on different shows before, but not, not ATVA
• 15:17
  regular TV show. No, it means everything's been
• 15:20
  done by. I wrote and directed writing and
• 15:23
  produced all the all the shows from Sheldon and and the mocker.
• 15:26
  Yeah, yeah, I've got the mocker plane in the background right
• 15:29
  now. Yeah, I see that the mocker a
• 15:34
  lot of fun mocker, but if you like vulgar, vulgar language on
• 15:38
  a funny face and a little bit of titties, that's OK.
• 15:41
  I put through that I'm. Going to be a fan Dean, I can
• 15:45
  guarantee you. We.
• 15:47
  Already subscribe to your channel?
• 15:50
  We got a, we went to a gambling casino.
• 15:52
  We, we snuck in at the over here in Oklahoma and, and shot a
• 15:57
  little bit inside there and then it was, it was a lot of fun.
• 16:01
  It was a lot of fun just. I can't wait to watch.
• 16:03
  Them I'm going to unmute it a little bit here.
• 16:05
  Like I've heard about that thing on the line that they they
• 16:08
  basically steal the people's money and they use the Tatas and
• 16:11
  stretch their stuff and everything else and it sounds
• 16:14
  like a good one. Tell me some more about that.
• 16:17
  Well, what we do, we get these females, you know, and they show
• 16:21
  their Tatas and ask for money, and then they tell the guys that
• 16:26
  they're stranded in Mexico and they need $1000 to get back home
• 16:32
  or else they'll get arrested. And so will the guy that's
• 16:34
  participating, you know? Yeah, I think you'll like it.
• 16:40
  We just have to make sure that the De Niro is don't hear about
• 16:42
  that, otherwise I'm doing shit. No, no, Your character that
• 16:48
  you're playing off there across you, it kind of sounds like a
• 16:51
  little Mike Tyson influence. Yeah, I, I told him it changes.
• 16:54
  He doesn't sound like that in real life.
• 16:56
  I hadn't changed his voice. That's a big sound, like
• 16:59
  something funny. Originally we're doing all the
• 17:02
  New York type of event. Like I said, you know what I
• 17:04
  said? Do a high pitched voice and he
• 17:06
  said he did a high pitched voice and it worked out good.
• 17:08
  So. Yeah, and it totally.
• 17:09
  I heard Mike Tyson, so you know. I agree with you, that's
• 17:13
  hilarious. Yeah, it's all but we we
• 17:15
  actually had a jail, a jail cell Ville and every, every, every.
• 17:20
  And that movie I brought back Monty Python.
• 17:24
  Oh, Mozzy, mozzy. Python.
• 17:27
  Monty Python. OK, Monty Python.
• 17:29
  OK, I thought you played. I think you'd just spoof on.
• 17:31
  I thought you created Monty, Monty Python's brother Monzi.
• 17:34
  So that's where my head went. That's where my head went right
• 17:36
  away because you're creative as fuck, man.
• 17:38
  I. Appreciate that.
• 17:40
  No, you know the the member in was it called John Cleese's?
• 17:47
  What is it called? Monty Python, The comfy chair.
• 17:50
  Yeah, like the comfy chair was in that movie and that was, I
• 17:54
  was like, no, not the comfy chair, please.
• 17:56
  No. I mean, that type of thing was
• 17:59
  the so we just, we did the comfy, we did the comfy chair
• 18:03
  and not that movie. That was fun.
• 18:05
  That's awesome, man. But we'd yes, I just got a lot
• 18:09
  of stuff, like one of one of the things on Christmas, for
• 18:12
  example, the way I did a Christmas Hanukkah thing have a
• 18:15
  Jewish Christmas. And I, I played, played Sheldon.
• 18:20
  Of course, I also played, played the Hanukkah Harry and, and that
• 18:27
  and I had to dress up the part and there was a long beard and a
• 18:31
  hat and, and you've probably seen that on there have a Jewish
• 18:37
  Christmas. Another one I did a parody off
• 18:41
  of Saturday Night Live was Bob Balls, Sheldon's Balls.
• 18:48
  Sheldon's Balls, that was in the Saturday Night Live venue is
• 18:54
  called. Sweaty balls, yes.
• 18:57
  Sweaty balls, yeah. That was I did AI did a version
• 19:00
  from from that one, so I took the Sheldon's balls instead so.
• 19:06
  That was that was, that was a great episode.
• 19:08
  That was a great skip. Saturday Life has its moments,
• 19:10
  man. Some of the stuff they've done
• 19:11
  over the years are gold. And some of the other things is
• 19:13
  like, really what? It's just why did you do that?
• 19:16
  But you got to, you got to remember they tried to do it
• 19:19
  every week. So you're going to miss on a lot
• 19:21
  of stuff. But you're right, some of their
• 19:22
  stuff was just absolute legendary.
• 19:25
  Well, I think they get too political.
• 19:26
  I think they get too wrapped up in politics, trying to poke fun
• 19:29
  at the government, which I get, but it's like, OK, you need to
• 19:31
  go out. You need to go find something
• 19:33
  else to be funny about now. Like start using your
• 19:35
  imagination more. Stop reading the headlines.
• 19:37
  I think they've got away from the headlines that they'd be a
• 19:39
  much funnier show. Like it was back seventies, 80s,
• 19:42
  you know, just personal opinion, that's all what you're saying.
• 19:46
  You need to go on Saturday live man.
• 19:48
  Why don't you go out? This your Saturday live, Dean.
• 19:50
  Well, actually done at the I've done well going back a little
• 19:53
  further, my on my like when I was 19 years old, a friend of
• 19:56
  mine asked me to try. Yes.
• 20:00
  Oh yeah. Still here?
• 20:17
  Yeah, OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 20:19
  So, so basically I didn't realize how funny I was.
• 20:24
  I mean, she was the lady. She was absolutely crazy.
• 20:28
  I was nervous as hell because that when I was on there, I was
• 20:30
  like, I don't have a clue on how to act or anything.
• 20:32
  I was not an actor. I just.
• 20:34
  Been yourself. I just been myself and I like, I
• 20:38
  love improv stuff. I just, it's just improv.
• 20:40
  So I got, I got on the stage and I started acting, acting goofy
• 20:45
  and funny and, and the lady back in the back, she said she fell
• 20:49
  off the chair. That's how funny I was good.
• 20:51
  And I, I mean she and I said, I said to the director, he says he
• 20:54
  said, man, well, you do you know how to play anything as well?
• 20:56
  I used to play the drum a little bit, but not, not really, not
• 20:59
  really. I could sing a little bit, but
• 21:01
  that's probably it. So anyway, he ended up wanting
• 21:05
  me to come back. But I, I, I was 19, I was in
• 21:07
  college. I had no idea I was going to
• 21:09
  even do acting at all at that point.
• 21:11
  Now, years later, back in the probably about 10 plus years
• 21:15
  ago, I, there was a, I was leading the show down here in
• 21:20
  Dallas from the doctor's convention and end up happening
• 21:24
  was they, they had the Saturday Night Live guy was that worked
• 21:27
  Saturday actual Saturday Night Live was here doing that show.
• 21:32
  And he showed me exactly. He said, he actually showed me
• 21:35
  how all the Saturday night, actual Saturday Night Live stuff
• 21:37
  works and behind the scene and how they actually.
• 21:40
  So basically we were three of us and we, it was like a newscast
• 21:44
  type thing. And and that was one of the
• 21:45
  newscasters in the back that I'm supposed to be on set someplace
• 21:49
  else. I mean, so and there was three
• 21:52
  of us doing the same thing. So how they work it is they have
• 21:55
  three different monitors and all three monitors have different
• 21:58
  colors. So it's all, it's all
• 22:00
  color-coded. So you're whatever, whatever
• 22:02
  your whenever your color is, you know, if in red or green or
• 22:06
  yellow, whatever it is, you just pick the color that yours and
• 22:09
  then you go, you go with the color.
• 22:11
  So that's how Saturday Night Live works.
• 22:13
  I mean, they practice throughout the week, but they still have
• 22:16
  the monitor so that when they actually are on set, they
• 22:19
  actually look at and act out what says on the screen.
• 22:23
  Now it's sometimes that it's Saturday Night Live.
• 22:25
  They actually hand write it physically hand write it out,
• 22:28
  but they also have the monitors. So they do both.
• 22:31
  But the the guy told me how good.
• 22:33
  He says, man, you're just a natural.
• 22:35
  It took you like what, 3 hours to do something?
• 22:37
  They take take something of a week to do.
• 22:38
  I say, I says I just just do it, man.
• 22:41
  I don't, I don't think about do it.
• 22:43
  I mean, even with Kurt Young, I told him, I says, if you don't
• 22:46
  mind me, I mean, I'm like a Jim Carrey.
• 22:49
  I'll give me the lines, but I'm going to make up my own stuff.
• 22:52
  Yeah. Is that OK with you?
• 22:53
  He says, oh absolutely. I says, OK, you do you do, you
• 22:56
  do your Dalton thing. You have fun doing that and you
• 22:58
  have fun, But it's all political.
• 23:01
  I, I, I actually talk to people that work about it.
• 23:03
  There are, it's, it's, you have to be a really mega star that's
• 23:07
  been doing it for a long time. And otherwise you can't even get
• 23:11
  on there. And on top of that, they don't
• 23:12
  even pay you with a damn. They, they, they, it's $100,000
• 23:16
  a year when you're living in New York, which means, which means
• 23:20
  you're making the money. I mean, I and then that's,
• 23:24
  that's, that's a, that's a basic and then I forgot the guys name.
• 23:29
  The, the, the black guy that's, that's been there forever.
• 23:32
  He, he makes 3 Keenan, Keenan, Keenan, Yeah, he Keenan makes me
• 23:36
  300,000 a year now. Now keep in mind, now keep in
• 23:39
  mind that these guys, he, you know how many years he's been on
• 23:42
  that show? Oh yeah, forever.
• 23:44
  Yeah, so. And he has residuals from his
• 23:45
  movies and shit. He did too, I'm sure.
• 23:47
  Yeah. But but he's but 300,000, you
• 23:50
  know, they do only works physically works six months a
• 23:53
  year. I mean the Saturday Night Live
• 23:54
  people. But the yeah, $300,000 is
• 23:57
  nothing. And I mean, by the time we get
• 23:58
  done saying, and so basically that's if you don't mind doing
• 24:02
  that. And and second City, when I,
• 24:04
  when they asked, offered me the job there, I was 50 bucks a day.
• 24:07
  I mean, there's no money. I mean, I mean, so you don't
• 24:11
  make that much money with with, you know, like so.
• 24:14
  It's the exposure. It's, it's exposure.
• 24:17
  I mean, that's the. Using it as a platform.
• 24:19
  Yeah, yeah. It's it's a starting point and
• 24:22
  you go from, that's why some of these guys go and do the major
• 24:24
  motion pictures and stuff like that later on down the road and
• 24:28
  hopefully they'll make money. Well, that explains why, you
• 24:32
  know, Chris is concerned with them not having the skits like
• 24:36
  they used to. I don't think they have the
• 24:38
  talent that they used to think about.
• 24:40
  They don't. Think about Mr. Robinson's
• 24:42
  neighborhood that Eddie Murphy did back in the day, right?
• 24:46
  He made that legendary. Name me one person.
• 24:50
  That's on Saturday Night Live right now.
• 24:53
  There's none, yeah. I I can't even think of one
• 24:56
  person because I haven't watched it in 10.
• 24:58
  Years. Yeah.
• 24:59
  It's not. It's not.
• 24:59
  It's not anywhere like the Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi and
• 25:03
  Chevy Chase Chris Farley. And yeah, yeah.
• 25:05
  Yeah, they don't have the the talent like that.
• 25:09
  Like like we like we're used to watching.
• 25:11
  I mean, that's unfortunate, but I mean, I I didn't know somebody
• 25:15
  years ago. Her name was Maitland.
• 25:17
  She was a Playboy Bunny And and I met her because of AI was
• 25:24
  taking somebody to the doctor and she said to me, why don't
• 25:26
  you take pick up my daughter at the airport, not realizing who
• 25:29
  she was, but she but she was actually, she, she worked on die
• 25:36
  hard. She worked on on die hard.
• 25:39
  She was, she was the floozy blonde on Die Hard one, the
• 25:43
  first, the first one and up out of the tower.
• 25:45
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And and she dated, she actually
• 25:50
  dated John Belushi and and at the time, at the time she dated
• 25:55
  him, he was not, it wasn't on drugs or anything.
• 25:58
  He he after the fact. And she was only like 25 years
• 26:01
  old back then. So, you know, but that was years
• 26:04
  ago. But but, you know, you just you
• 26:07
  meet these people over, you know, you get, it's kind of cool
• 26:09
  how you run into people like, you know, I'm a suddenly the
• 26:13
  cool, cool information. And it's like, oh, OK, cool
• 26:15
  story. So you know.
• 26:17
  That is awesome. Yeah.
• 26:20
  But yeah, TV is always, always a lot of fun to do.
• 26:23
  And then we like, instead of producing all these shows, you
• 26:26
  know, we've been doing it since 2015 now, so little about
• 26:30
  little. They they say it takes 15 years,
• 26:33
  15 years to to become famous, I guess, yeah.
• 26:36
  Beverly said. Beverly said 10:10 You can
• 26:38
  expect 10 years to get from from here to here.
• 26:42
  Yeah, you can't. I mean, and I, I never thought I
• 26:45
  would be famous. Honestly, I and I really never
• 26:47
  thought I I just do this. I do this for fun now.
• 26:50
  Now what do I do for my, in my real life?
• 26:52
  Oh, well, my real life. We're not counting being an
• 26:55
  actor. I, I own insurance agencies for
• 26:58
  42 years. We, we started with auto
• 27:01
  insurance and went, went to commercial and then and then
• 27:06
  from there in the interim, I haven't, I do, I do a lot of
• 27:10
  different things. I'm actually, I'm a rabbi.
• 27:13
  I, I do weddings. Have you ever heard, have you
• 27:16
  heard of the TV show? That's what's it called, a
• 27:21
  Netflix TV show. Love is blind.
• 27:25
  Love that show. That chick and that show's
• 27:28
  amazing. And I was disappointed when I
• 27:29
  found out she was married to fucking Mark Sanchez.
• 27:31
  I'm like, seriously, you're way too hot to be married to
• 27:34
  Sanchez, man. Way too hot.
• 27:37
  But yes, that was a great show. She was fantastic in that.
• 27:41
  Agreed. Sorry, I'm actually, I'm
• 27:44
  actually on that show. I I actually married somebody on
• 27:47
  that show, season 3 episode 11 and there was a big being a
• 27:54
  rabbi. She was the only Jewish person
• 27:56
  that got that married, got married and the whole the whole
• 27:58
  season, all the seasons. And she got they stayed married
• 28:02
  for four years and I got divorced last December.
• 28:06
  But at least they they were it's it's kind of, you know how the
• 28:09
  show works. I mean, basically, you know, you
• 28:10
  know the person for 30 days and get married.
• 28:12
  I mean that doesn't expected to work.
• 28:15
  No, I don't see how I mean that's but this person that
• 28:20
  they, they actually, you know, lasted 4 years so that was
• 28:23
  pretty good there. But the after that, I went ahead
• 28:28
  and I and also I did. You've heard of you've heard of
• 28:31
  Obamacare, right you? Know.
• 28:33
  Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
• 28:33
  OK, the healthcare stuff. OK, so I I did had a hair at my
• 28:38
  ass one day and I said, you know what I'm going to write?
• 28:41
  I'm going to write AI happen to know all about healthcare.
• 28:43
  So I'm going to, I'm going to write down a page and a half
• 28:45
  article about how to make a healthcare program.
• 28:50
  So I sent, I sent the information to Obama by fax in
• 28:54
  Chicago. And I thought, Nah, he's never
• 28:57
  going to see it. He never got bothered with it,
• 28:59
  never. Although this is right when he
• 29:01
  just became president and it went to his fax in Chicago.
• 29:06
  And so lo and behold, 2 months later on CNN News, they're
• 29:09
  talking about my program on TV. And so I'm like, that's not
• 29:15
  possible. I mean, they had no other
• 29:16
  program, but I have to take my, my little outline and they made
• 29:19
  into a program. So they didn't, they kind of
• 29:22
  messed it up a little bit. They didn't do it exactly the
• 29:24
  way I told them to do it, but but they, they kind of got
• 29:26
  started. So now years later, I decided,
• 29:30
  you know what? I need to fix the program.
• 29:31
  The program sucks. Let me, let me see if I can fix
• 29:34
  it to where it's supposed to. See my, my objective was to stay
• 29:37
  away from the, the insurance companies entirely.
• 29:40
  Just do direct pay at a lower rate.
• 29:43
  So basically for example you go to the doctor, you pay $150.00 a
• 29:47
  month, you get to see as many times as you want.
• 29:49
  Wouldn't that be better than paying every time you go there?
• 29:52
  Paying X amount of dollars a copay.
• 29:53
  Deductible. Absolutely.
• 29:56
  I mean, it's, it's the pain. So why, why, why do all that?
• 29:59
  So we decided to come up with, they haven't, what it's called
• 30:02
  concierge concept, which means you have a, you have a
• 30:05
  specialist, like a heart specialist.
• 30:07
  You pay them, let's say $400.00 a month and then or $300 a month
• 30:11
  and you get to see as many times you want, well, this, this kind
• 30:14
  of concept, same kind of concept, only it's on the coop
• 30:16
  basis. And and So what part of the
• 30:20
  program when they wrote it up, they actually did?
• 30:34
  OK, OK. What happening was they we're
• 30:40
  supposed to have the way I designed it was the people in
• 30:43
  the area are supposed to be able to pay that that particular
• 30:46
  facility every month. Well, as it turned out, they
• 30:50
  instead of doing that, they went to the insurance company around
• 30:52
  the end up end up screwing it all up and having insurance
• 30:54
  companies get all the money, therefore forgetting about all
• 30:58
  forgetting all about the poor clinics that are just sitting
• 31:00
  around making no money and going bankrupt.
• 31:02
  So what hadn't happened was a lot of the hospitals and I'm
• 31:05
  taking over the clinics. So my new program is called the
• 31:08
  Lighthouse and the Lighthouse. And they basically it's, it's,
• 31:12
  it's a cool program right now. We decided to go after the
• 31:15
  universities and we're starting this in India.
• 31:18
  OK, so we have 52 lighthouses in India right now.
• 31:22
  And we basically it's kind of like more of a mental health
• 31:26
  type thing. It's get clear the air your
• 31:30
  head, get stuff out of your head and make sure make make you feel
• 31:33
  better. If you have issues with ADDADHD,
• 31:36
  bipolar disorders, schizophrenia or, or or any kind of suicidal
• 31:41
  tendencies, whatever. We, we basically have 24/7 help
• 31:45
  on an app with a real person, not AI and actually people,
• 31:49
  actually people can actually help them out with it for in a
• 31:52
  cheap rate. For example, in the states here,
• 31:54
  we're going to charge $500 a month for that, for that service
• 31:58
  and the universities are paying for it.
• 32:01
  And so we're starting universities and all the
• 32:03
  students universities will, will pay for it.
• 32:06
  It would tend to leave a $50.00 a month or $40 a month, whatever
• 32:09
  it is. And then, and then if they want
• 32:12
  their, their, their friends or relatives, so they can just join
• 32:14
  in and they can pay their, their $500 a year and get to the same
• 32:17
  kind of coverage for that. And then, then we're going to
• 32:21
  add dental to that. We're going to be adding as a,
• 32:24
  as an alternate, another part of it.
• 32:26
  And then we're and general practitioners to that as well on
• 32:29
  the back end. But in the meantime, we're going
• 32:31
  to start starting out with the mental health first.
• 32:33
  You can't say it's mental health because no one likes that word
• 32:35
  mental. It's just, it's just people just
• 32:38
  don't think you're crazy. Especially in India, you can't
• 32:41
  even use that word mental at all.
• 32:42
  So we use emotional well-being behavioral health.
• 32:47
  Yeah, yeah. Something more to that.
• 32:50
  Basically it's, it's like going to going to work every day and
• 32:54
  you have, you know, you have your distress of losing your job
• 32:57
  or doing something wrong, whatever.
• 32:58
  You go talk to this guy. Hey, everything's great,
• 33:00
  everything's fine. You mean just basically just So
• 33:03
  what we're doing that all over the world.
• 33:05
  This is a worldwide program I'm going to have.
• 33:08
  Australia has already proved it, London's already proved it.
• 33:12
  And we're working here in Dallas and Richardson, the Utd Dallas
• 33:17
  is getting a budget rave to launch it there.
• 33:20
  And then we're going to build it here and then and then II is up
• 33:24
  and running. So we're we're excited about
• 33:26
  that, that program and this is all happening at the same time
• 33:30
  as Sheldon's going crazy. So it's just a combination of.
• 33:33
  That's awesome. Well, that's the cool thing that
• 33:35
  that that you're this amazing writer, director, actor, and
• 33:39
  then you're doing something that's going to change the
• 33:40
  world, which I love because we're all about life resumes and
• 33:44
  making a difference in an impact.
• 33:45
  And while you were talking, I was going down the rabbit hole
• 33:48
  even more so. And I'm coming across all your
• 33:51
  different awards like you just just like, right, Where was that
• 33:55
  one? This one right here is best,
• 33:57
  best feature film Hollywood, right?
• 34:00
  Like right. Like for those of you watching
• 34:03
  this show, Mushagun is legit. This guy is not not joking
• 34:08
  around. I mean, I mean, he's joking
• 34:09
  around, but you said what, over 650 awards?
• 34:14
  Oh yeah, yeah. That's crazy.
• 34:17
  That's just, it's just amazing, man, what you've accomplished in
• 34:19
  in your in your lifetime and the fact that you're doing something
• 34:25
  outside of it to help the world is even more amazing to me,
• 34:29
  which I I love that stuff, man. I love it.
• 34:31
  That's the fantastic dude. Good job.
• 34:34
  Thanks. Sheldon's making him laugh and
• 34:35
  Dean's bringing him healthcare. Yeah, well, you know, ironically
• 34:38
  with one of the shows, if you look at my YouTube is there's a
• 34:41
  show there that with a with a Indian looking girl there if you
• 34:44
  watch. That part Lighthouse.
• 34:46
  Lighthouse Healthcare. Yeah, yeah, if you start, if you
• 34:49
  watch that the the first part of it, you'll see Sheldon first.
• 34:53
  That threw Sheldon in the middle.
• 34:54
  I I shouldn't I threw Sheldon together with the healthcare so
• 34:59
  all. Right, here we go.
• 35:00
  Let's let's share it for our audience here real quick.
• 35:03
  Yeah, to get rid of all your problems and concerns of the
• 35:07
  day. And you know what?
• 35:09
  It's always good to laugh once in a while.
• 35:11
  Speaking of laughter, I hear Sheldon over there.
• 35:14
  Sheldon, what are you doing? Hi, Dean.
• 35:20
  You can't say that I know something you don't know.
• 35:27
  All right, Sheldon, what is it? Well, I have a place you can
• 35:31
  hang out and have fun and people will help you and take care of
• 35:34
  you. Listen, that's a great idea.
• 35:38
  That's a great place to go to have fun and relax and take your
• 35:43
  mind off all the problems and just laugh.
• 35:46
  It's fun to just laugh every day.
• 35:48
  You should have fun to laugh. That's the best thing to do.
• 35:52
  Hi there, this is actor Dean Morgan, CEO, Healthcare SMC.
• 35:56
  Thank you so much for watching today.
• 36:00
  I have a few partners, Genera, Nidhi and Zaria.
• 36:06
  We put together a program called The Lighthouse.
• 36:11
  It's a fantastic program that helps you get through the
• 36:14
  day-to-day issues up here. Family, friends, work, anything
• 36:24
  related to that we can help you get through the day.
• 36:28
  Every day is another day, one day at a time they say.
• 36:32
  But this is really for you. This is for you, and it's a safe
• 36:38
  place. No judgement, no problems, no
• 36:41
  nothing. You'll enjoy relaxation and
• 36:46
  being able to get through the day without all that craziness
• 36:49
  going on outside. That's fantastic, man.
• 36:54
  That's really cool. That is fantastic dude.
• 36:58
  We, we created that we, we had to come up with a another Ave.
• 37:02
  to come through because we start with the, the regular healthcare
• 37:05
  and people say you already have that.
• 37:06
  We already have that. I said, you know what you don't
• 37:08
  have? You don't have anything with
• 37:09
  mental health on it. Right, right.
• 37:11
  And there's nothing, I mean, going to a psychiatrist, a
• 37:14
  psychologist is paying $500.00 an hour or $100.00 an hour,
• 37:18
  whatever. And, and, and you're gone.
• 37:20
  You're done with our program. Even if you're off our program,
• 37:23
  we still follow up and call you seeing how you're doing.
• 37:28
  If you have to follow, you have to follow up with my daughter
• 37:31
  having issues with, with drug issues and whatever.
• 37:34
  And we took her to several different places and whatnot.
• 37:36
  And, and they, they, you know, it helped her while she was
• 37:39
  there. But after she left, I mean, she
• 37:42
  didn't go back to drugs or anything, but but she just, you
• 37:45
  know, it just didn't keep up the program.
• 37:47
  And sometimes there's. There's there's an amazing
• 37:52
  glitch in the system when you get somebody in the detox and
• 37:54
  then they leave detox, they go to the, the 30 day, you know,
• 37:56
  24/7 lockdown, always have somebody to talk to, always have
• 37:59
  somebody to, to work through feelings and adjust back to
• 38:02
  being clean and sober. And then you get out of that 30
• 38:04
  day spot. And then where do you go?
• 38:06
  You go to a group home or a halfway house where if, because
• 38:10
  I've had experience with this. So if you have a female, you go
• 38:12
  into a four bedroom house that has 16 other girls and it's all
• 38:16
  drama and it's all you, you can't be, you can't be here.
• 38:19
  You can't. That's my pot spot in the
• 38:21
  fridge. That's my spot in the bathroom.
• 38:22
  That's not your turn. So you come out this, this
• 38:24
  emotional high, right? Because you like you did it
• 38:26
  again, you accomplished it. You got clean and sober.
• 38:28
  You're you're just, you're trucking along positive.
• 38:31
  Then you go to that situation and it just breaks you back
• 38:34
  down. And then within 30 days you're
• 38:35
  using again. So there's a major disconnect.
• 38:37
  The people don't realize that if you can't go back home because
• 38:41
  of whatever damage you caused there after you get out of those
• 38:44
  30 day lockdowns and your mindset is right, it just ends
• 38:47
  up going back down the rabbit hole for the most part because
• 38:50
  you're you're pushed that way because everybody around you,
• 38:53
  they're so just, I don't want to say assholes, but they're just
• 38:56
  there's, they're struggling with everything as well.
• 38:59
  So it's just creates this monumental tornado, tornado of
• 39:01
  chaos that just goes nowhere but down.
• 39:04
  It's just structure. I mean, that's, that's that's
• 39:06
  been my experience, you know? Yeah.
• 39:08
  You're absolutely right. That's exactly the problem.
• 39:10
  And then I guess so frustrated on the phone with these people
• 39:13
  and say, well, we'll help, you'll help you and you spend a
• 39:15
  thousands of dollars and then and then nothing gets done.
• 39:19
  My poor, my poor daughter is £500 and then we, and we're
• 39:23
  trying to try to get her a mentally stable so she can lose
• 39:26
  the weight and then, and then she has to be able to start
• 39:29
  losing weight before she can go through the bypass or whatever.
• 39:33
  And, but it's just, it's just a struggle.
• 39:35
  It's just a struggle. So I got so fed up with that.
• 39:39
  So that's why we came up with the idea of the mental health
• 39:42
  side of it. And, and everybody needs it.
• 39:44
  And it's, it's, it's worldwide. It's the same problem
• 39:47
  everywhere, everywhere in the world, same problem.
• 39:50
  So we, we, so we came up with an idea and then we're, and now
• 39:53
  we're building the apps or the, the, the trying to put together
• 39:57
  the best apps we can. It's going to take about.
• 40:00
  About $300,000 to do it, but by time we get done with the we're
• 40:03
  the best app for this program, it'll be fantastic.
• 40:06
  I mean, people will be able to 2:00 in the morning, you feel
• 40:09
  depressed, you can call somebody and actually talk a role.
• 40:12
  So once you get this, once you get this all up and running, I
• 40:14
  want you coming back on because you'll, we kind of prefaced it
• 40:17
  before it came on the show. We close every show.
• 40:19
  We talk about how you're feeling suicidal, depressed, things like
• 40:21
  that, because we've both been impacted by that and that that
• 40:24
  is a, a big component to the mental health, behavioral health
• 40:27
  in the world. You know, like people don't, you
• 40:31
  can talk to somebody and two hours later they can kill
• 40:33
  themselves because they don't, they don't share.
• 40:35
  They don't. And, and so we're big proponents
• 40:37
  on making sure we always educate everybody that watches our show
• 40:41
  at the end of it. This is who you call if you're
• 40:43
  feeling that way. So when you get all this done
• 40:45
  and you get that app back up and running, when you get it up and
• 40:47
  running, I want you coming back because we want to promote the
• 40:49
  hell out of that because that that is a game changer in the
• 40:53
  world of health, especially mental health.
• 40:55
  Because the what I heard the text 988, their funding just
• 40:59
  went away. There's still other avenues and
• 41:01
  stuff. But yeah, for sure we got to
• 41:04
  have you back on and talk about that.
• 41:05
  Not that we're done, we have plenty of time, but I want you
• 41:08
  coming back on when that, when that, when that app's live so we
• 41:10
  can share it with everybody. Yeah, absolutely.
• 41:13
  That'd be fantastic. I mean, it's the work in
• 41:16
  progress. Every day I work, I talk, I talk
• 41:18
  to India every day. And his name is Chris.
• 41:22
  And I got, I got Chris by accident from another program.
• 41:25
  I started to work out and we with the healthcare.
• 41:27
  And then I, he said, I asked Chris what, what in India that
• 41:31
  they need? And they came up with the, with
• 41:32
  the mental health. I'm like, but you can't call it
• 41:35
  mental health. And I said, all right, well.
• 41:37
  And then I said, well, let's do the following.
• 41:39
  So I created the program for him.
• 41:41
  And then I didn't hear from him for about 5 or 6 months.
• 41:43
  And all of a sudden he called me up hey Dean, I'm ready yes what
• 41:47
  do you I completely forgot what he's ready for all right I got
• 41:51
  the program right as oh okay so I just started working it and
• 41:56
  and we started and you know the money is a lot less out there so
• 41:59
  it doesn't cost much to put that together out there so as opposed
• 42:03
  to here in the states, but you know but they can live on the
• 42:06
  500 bucks a you know for two weeks and they're happy they're
• 42:09
  happy campers out there but. Nice.
• 42:12
  It's much, it's much cheaper out there, but you could also have
• 42:14
  to charge a lot less money for those people too, because they
• 42:17
  can't afford. Sure, Right.
• 42:19
  So another part of it is the government.
• 42:20
  We're trying to get the government to help out,
• 42:22
  including here in the States. We have a few senators are
• 42:26
  working with us to help us get through the politics of this
• 42:31
  because universities are also owned by the government as well.
• 42:33
  So, so we have to go through that when they're making a
• 42:37
  budget so they can do this program Forest.
• 42:40
  And once the Utd Dallas is up and running, which I think
• 42:43
  probably by September, then they have seven other universities
• 42:46
  they'll will kick up and they're all they'll all be in the end.
• 42:49
  And after that the whole world will want to know what the heck
• 42:52
  is the the White House? The White House is so.
• 42:55
  That's awesome. Look forward to that.
• 42:57
  You got any comments on this Mike sitting there quietly?
• 43:00
  No, mental health is definitely something near and dear to my
• 43:03
  heart because I've been there. You know, I've I've lost my mind
• 43:06
  and there there is really no help.
• 43:09
  I'm with Chris. Good luck getting the government
• 43:11
  in this country to help do anything.
• 43:14
  I really do wish you luck. But I just watched a vote the
• 43:19
  well, it wasn't a vote. It was actually a congressman
• 43:22
  trying to get the rest of his constituents sitting there to
• 43:27
  admit that the current constitution does not allow for
• 43:30
  1/3 presidential term. You know what we heard?
• 43:35
  Crickets. Not one person wanted to admit
• 43:40
  that the current constitution does not allow for 1/3
• 43:43
  presidential term. I understand why we can't get
• 43:46
  anything done in this country after that.
• 43:49
  It's all smoke and mirrors, you know?
• 43:52
  So the fact that we don't look at mental health first is a
• 43:57
  travesty. So I agree with India
• 44:00
  wholeheartedly. You need to start there.
• 44:03
  Whatever you want to call it, that's fine.
• 44:05
  But we need more people like you doing that kind of work because
• 44:11
  the current mental health in this country is been pretty much
• 44:16
  wrecked since the 80s when Reagan stopped the funding for
• 44:20
  that, right? Thanks to him, everybody ended
• 44:23
  up on the street. Well, then you have the the
• 44:27
  rampant just social media and how that's completely taken over
• 44:33
  the world, Kids mental health and and preteens mental health.
• 44:37
  You know, you just every the parents now, you know, this is
• 44:41
  parenting. OK, OK, go over there.
• 44:43
  OK. Oh, that looks really good,
• 44:45
  Johnny. Oh yeah.
• 44:46
  OK, love you. Oh yeah, OK.
• 44:47
  You know, they're not they're so disconnected from everyday life
• 44:51
  because it's all social media. So you don't have the way we
• 44:55
  probably all grew up. You know, you didn't have that
• 44:58
  as a blocker for people. You had to engage with them
• 45:00
  socially. You had to go knock on doors and
• 45:02
  call on phones. Hey, can, can Dean come out and
• 45:04
  and go play football with this, you know, down the street type
• 45:06
  thing. None of that exists anymore.
• 45:08
  It's. Well, the problem.
• 45:09
  Morning is all social media. That sucks.
• 45:12
  The other problem when we were growing up, though, and Dean
• 45:14
  said it earlier, we were taught that if you had any kind of
• 45:19
  mental health problems, you were crazy.
• 45:21
  True. True.
• 45:22
  So you went straight from, maybe I just need to talk to somebody
• 45:26
  like we've been talking about here.
• 45:28
  Yeah. Sometimes you just need to talk
• 45:29
  it out. You're not crazy.
• 45:30
  You just need somebody else to confirm that everybody feels a
• 45:33
  certain way. Right?
• 45:34
  Yeah. Sometimes you need seem to hug
• 45:35
  man. That too.
• 45:37
  We've all been there. Yeah.
• 45:39
  And that's a basic human need. What's the worst thing you can
• 45:42
  do to a human being? Put them in solitaire?
• 45:44
  Yeah. Isolate them from human contact.
• 45:46
  That is the worst thing you can do to a human being.
• 45:48
  We all need human contact of some kind.
• 45:51
  Chris is right. Sometimes you just need a hug.
• 45:52
  She's need. A hug, man, I hug this every day
• 45:55
  before she leaves and when she goes to bed.
• 45:57
  I actually tucked Nikki into bed at night because she had hurt
• 45:59
  her hip. My wife Dean.
• 46:00
  So so we got this. We have this, my wife's 52 and
• 46:03
  she wanted this bed that literally I have to step up into
• 46:05
  and I'm, I'm about 6 tall, but she wanted this, you know,
• 46:09
  whatever. She's like a little Polly Pocket
• 46:10
  in this bed. So I because she heard her hip
• 46:13
  kickbox and I had to help her in the bed for about a week.
• 46:16
  And now it's just habit where every night I, I put her to bed,
• 46:19
  which is just funny, but it's kind of cool because in the
• 46:22
  morning she gets up at 4:30 and goes and leaves and go works
• 46:25
  out. So she'll wake me up, you know,
• 46:27
  give me a hug, kiss me, have a good day.
• 46:28
  So it's the first interaction I have every day and it's the last
• 46:32
  interaction I have every day is with her, which is which is
• 46:34
  phenomenal. And I think, yeah, you know, and
• 46:37
  people need that. You need the connection.
• 46:39
  You can, you need that. And that that's the thing that
• 46:41
  social media does is it's it's taking that shit away.
• 46:43
  And it's it's building walls that people can't really don't
• 46:46
  really realize that they're that are there anymore.
• 46:48
  And they and they are, it's, you know.
• 46:51
  Well, what, what the kids you mentioned the kids we are, we
• 46:53
  are starting at a younger age and where we have a program
• 46:56
  through through genetics, where we go through genetic lab and
• 47:01
  shows exactly what, what kind of situation this this kid is in at
• 47:05
  the at a younger age. And so this way we can, we can
• 47:09
  before, before they grow up, they can find fix the problem or
• 47:12
  at least put them on meds or whatever to, to get.
• 47:15
  So we know, like my daughter had ADD when she was four and I
• 47:18
  didn't believe, I didn't believe the teachers.
• 47:21
  And it was very simple. My, my daughter was told you
• 47:24
  need to go to this seat. And instead she went to that
• 47:27
  seat. I mean, she's your seat.
• 47:30
  I mean, she still went that seat and she was not paying attention
• 47:34
  to which. So she, her attention span
• 47:36
  wasn't there as an example. But we have my, my partner's Jay
• 47:40
  Brenner and he basically has a genetic program to help the kids
• 47:44
  when they're younger and then and then move up.
• 47:47
  And we have a, another partner out of Australia that does
• 47:52
  specializes in kids. And then we're going to be able
• 47:56
  to help the kids when they're younger.
• 47:57
  So this way when they get to be adults like us, we don't, if you
• 48:01
  have ADD, ADHD, bipolar or whatever it is, we can nip that
• 48:05
  in the bud before anything happens, which is great.
• 48:08
  Yeah. So that's, that's the start.
• 48:10
  I mean, so you have to start with the kids first.
• 48:13
  Otherwise, otherwise when you're an adult, it's too late.
• 48:16
  Agreed. I.
• 48:18
  Almost look at ADD or ADHD Dean as an evolution.
• 48:23
  I look at it differently than most people, right?
• 48:26
  Our education system to me, even when I was there, was so
• 48:31
  undesirable, right? What you're doing is you're
• 48:33
  teaching people to be obedient workers.
• 48:36
  That's all you're doing. You're teaching them to
• 48:38
  regurgitate a bunch of useless knowledge.
• 48:42
  That's that's what it is at the end of the day, because most of
• 48:46
  us grew up to be factory workers or truck drivers or you know,
• 48:51
  your specialty job service minority.
• 48:53
  Civil servants, that type of thing.
• 48:55
  Mailman, you know. So our current school system is
• 48:58
  basically set up to teach, teach people to be obedient workers.
• 49:02
  The ADD and the ADHDI firmly believe is an evolution in the
• 49:07
  human species that we were not meant to sit there and just
• 49:11
  focus on one thing. Especially when you're 5 years
• 49:14
  old and six years old, right? It's a horrible thing to ask a 5
• 49:18
  year old little boy to sit for three hours and be attentive,
• 49:22
  right? Come on now.
• 49:23
  Yeah, we all three of us were a 5 year old boy at one time.
• 49:26
  You remember how much energy, and I wish I had that energy
• 49:30
  right now. You know.
• 49:31
  That's what you were. You were like a little fireball.
• 49:34
  You had a sun inside you that it was just boundless, endless
• 49:37
  energy. And now you're asking those same
• 49:39
  kids to sit at a desk and pay attention to this, at that time,
• 49:43
  super old person telling them what to do, you know?
• 49:47
  Yeah, Come on. Yeah, it's, it's, it's crazy.
• 49:51
  I mean, Oxford genetics. People ask me how old I am.
• 49:54
  I says, well, how old do you think I am?
• 49:56
  I says. I say about 50I says Nope I'm
• 49:59
  66. So I wouldn't guess that I would
• 50:02
  not. I wouldn't have either, no.
• 50:04
  And, and my, my, my mother's side was, was, she was a smoker,
• 50:08
  unfortunately, but, but she, but all her side of the family were
• 50:12
  all look young, all look really young.
• 50:15
  Even when they're 90s, they look like they're like 70 or
• 50:17
  something. I mean, it's just, this is a
• 50:19
  good gene I have thankfully, knock on wood.
• 50:23
  So I, I don't feel my age. I, I do things like a 3540 year
• 50:27
  old does and my, my mind is still crisp like a 40 year old.
• 50:31
  So I guess still I think I could piss some people.
• 50:35
  Some of my friends at my age, you can't remember what they ate
• 50:37
  for breakfast. Yeah, right, right.
• 50:40
  That's, that's, that's always the, the, the cabins and how,
• 50:43
  what'd you eat for breakfast? I don't know.
• 50:45
  I think I have some rotten toast or something, you know?
• 50:49
  But would you not credit being creative with that, Dean?
• 50:53
  Huh. You've been creative your whole
• 50:55
  life. Would you not create credit
• 50:57
  being creative with remaining young?
• 51:01
  Not just looking young, but mentally right?
• 51:04
  Yeah, yeah, I mean that, yeah, basically it does help.
• 51:08
  But I've always been, everybody wants to be a movie star.
• 51:12
  I mean, it's always doing that kind of cool.
• 51:14
  But I, I started enjoying the acting when I started to feel
• 51:20
  just get get into it. I mean, they're having fun with
• 51:22
  it as long as I was having fun with it.
• 51:26
  You know, when you start out in acting, you start out as an
• 51:27
  extra, right? So you basically do extra work
• 51:30
  and stuff like that. So when you're looking at the
• 51:32
  camera, Oh my God, that's a camera I was on.
• 51:36
  There's a movie called My All American.
• 51:39
  I don't know if you've ever heard of it, but it's called My
• 51:41
  All American. It was a football movie about
• 51:42
  the guy in an Aggie that he lost his leg because of cancer or
• 51:46
  something. That was back in 1950, OK.
• 51:49
  And so the legacy casting asked, asked me to audition for a guy
• 51:55
  who goes like this. And I had these, these dirt
• 51:58
  glasses and everything. So I said, OK, fine.
• 52:01
  So Long story short, I, I go, I go other set, I mean, which is
• 52:04
  a, a cotton ball here in Dallas. And I'm doing my thing.
• 52:09
  And then the guy and the director, that guy said, you
• 52:11
  stop here. I says, OK, you go that way.
• 52:14
  So I went, I went to a different place than anybody else did.
• 52:17
  And all of a sudden, all the main cast was in front of me and
• 52:20
  I'm like, what's going on here? And so all of a sudden the
• 52:23
  camera pulls right up to my face.
• 52:25
  It's like, wait a minute, what's going on here?
• 52:29
  So I was like, so I, I was wearing a, and I think in 19,
• 52:33
  early 1960's, the hat, this, the, the thin tie and then the
• 52:37
  glasses. And I'm sitting here like, wow,
• 52:40
  what, what's going on? So Long story short, if you
• 52:43
  watch the movie, at the very end of the movie, you're going to
• 52:45
  see me, me and this girl. That's all you see in the in the
• 52:49
  in the whole movie. And I didn't even get credit for
• 52:51
  this movie. I just happened to be in the
• 52:53
  movie. It was just like you, just you
• 52:56
  just never, you just never know. I mean, I mean, there's another
• 53:00
  movie I did called Ghoster. Remember from here to Ghoster.
• 53:06
  I mean, it was the I play the businessman and Ghoster.
• 53:08
  I had a whole scene to myself in that movie.
• 53:10
  It was a Lions game movie. A Lions game movie.
• 53:13
  Well, you're with this Ben Dean. What year would this have been?
• 53:19
  Just a couple years ago, two or three years ago, OK, I, I was
• 53:23
  probably, I don't know, maybe it was maybe 3, maybe 3 or 4 years
• 53:27
  ago. Ghost, It's just Ghoster, OK.
• 53:32
  And then if you look at that, it is like in the in the middle of
• 53:35
  the movie and, and this is even known as the Lionsgate film.
• 53:39
  They didn't put any known actors in there except for me, and I
• 53:43
  happened to be in the middle and I happened to be in the middle
• 53:45
  of the of the film. So they didn't realize that I
• 53:47
  was something until later. And they said, Oh, we need we
• 53:50
  need to advertise this guy. So that solve a sudden they put
• 53:54
  the thumbprint as as me and in my scene and everything was kind
• 53:57
  of cool. It was more like a more like a
• 54:00
  Casper movie with a with a with a with a cartoon ghost.
• 54:05
  OK. All right.
• 54:06
  And we, we shot that in Oklahoma.
• 54:08
  It was kind of cool, but I learned I used to wear a
• 54:13
  hairpiece years ago and I have I have blue eyes, which is for the
• 54:18
  cameras really piercing. So all the directors out here in
• 54:21
  Dallas always put me into their their shows, even as as an
• 54:24
  extra. They said, Oh no, no, I need you
• 54:26
  in front of the camera. So wherever I we have a.
• 54:30
  Good. You have a Yeah.
• 54:30
  What's cuz you got You got a good presence, man, for sure.
• 54:33
  You, you know, I was told that, yeah, when I was younger, when I
• 54:37
  did some theater work, that was. And I didn't understand what I
• 54:39
  meant back then. Like this, this, this female
• 54:42
  actress, which was like our our main whoosh, like everybody
• 54:44
  aspired to be her. She was that good on stage.
• 54:47
  And we had a play and I came off when she passed me in the hall
• 54:50
  and she's like, you have a really good stage presence.
• 54:52
  And I was like, OK, no idea what I meant.
• 54:54
  Like 20 years later, Like, holy shit.
• 54:56
  That was a huge compliment. So I can see that why they want
• 55:00
  you in front of the camera because you have a presence and
• 55:02
  an aura about you that you just you, you kind of demand the
• 55:05
  space that you're in, which is, which is neat because it's rare.
• 55:08
  I mean, we've had a couple, we've had a couple people on now
• 55:10
  from Beverly. We just had Travis on who was
• 55:13
  fantastic and he undersold himself like you wouldn't
• 55:16
  believe like like like he started talking about making
• 55:19
  hats and shit. We're like, why is this guy on
• 55:21
  here for making hats? This came from Beverly.
• 55:24
  And then once we started poking and prodding him, we realized,
• 55:26
  holy shit. Kind of like with you, which is
• 55:28
  why we don't do a lot of pregame research because we want, we
• 55:33
  want the conversation to be real.
• 55:35
  So our reactions to who you are and what you've done in your
• 55:37
  life, it's all genuine reactions.
• 55:39
  Sort of. It's fake because this is how we
• 55:41
  roll it. It's more engaging for us as as
• 55:45
  the hosts. I think it's more engaging for
• 55:46
  you as the guest and it's definitely more engaging for our
• 55:49
  our people to watch us because we keep growing different
• 55:52
  countries. And it's because people like you
• 55:53
  have these amazing life resumes that you just go out and do more
• 55:56
  things to help humanity, not just yourself.
• 55:58
  I love it, man. I just love it.
• 56:00
  Absolutely. Also another thing did you see
• 56:04
  on my YouTube, there's another, it's called Zuckerberg.
• 56:08
  You've heard, you know, for surfing bird and advice heard
• 56:11
  about the bird, you know. Oh yeah.
• 56:13
  Yeah. Well, I've, I've as a, as my

• 56:19
  younger. I was going, I wanted to do, I
• 56:21
  wanted to sing that song, but I wasn't sure how I'd do it.
• 56:24
  So I said, and my wife and I talked about why don't you do it
• 56:26

• 1:00:36
  Bird is the word. I.
• 1:01:25
  Don't you know about the? Don't you know about the?
• 1:02:03
  So who is the? Who's the?
• 1:02:04
  Who's the chick of the in the suit?
• 1:02:07
  Her name is the Reggie Luthier. I did a show with her one time,
• 1:02:12
  which when I first met her, it was, it's called the 48 hour
• 1:02:16
  Film Festival. And she the, it was kind of
• 1:02:20
  weird because she's like 30 years younger than I am and
• 1:02:24
  she's actually my girlfriend in the show.
• 1:02:27
  And, and So what happened was I, they asked me to do a bit with
• 1:02:33
  her where I was the lead and she was the girlfriend.
• 1:02:36
  And but the this started out with me, me making out with her
• 1:02:40
  and I'm like and I and I said to them, I said, you realize that
• 1:02:43
  I'm 30 years older than this girl.
• 1:02:45
  He says, yeah, we don't have anybody else.
• 1:02:47
  And you're that you're in. I said so then had I asked her
• 1:02:51
  if if that was OK with her, she said fine, no problem.
• 1:02:53
  I'm I'm honored. She said.
• 1:02:54
  I says, OK, so we ended up doing that show.
• 1:02:58
  And then and then after that I said, you know what?
• 1:03:00
  Maybe she might be funny to be a Sheldon's girlfriend.
• 1:03:04
  So so I got so that was a horror flick and then I went from
• 1:03:08
  horror flick to to Sheldon. So so that's where I got her.
• 1:03:12
  She was originally just doing just the basic stuff around, you
• 1:03:17
  know, the, the pre work pre. Work but OK.
• 1:03:21
  I mean, and then she ended up being a little actor, so I said
• 1:03:24
  OK, so we did the acting thing. And then James I, I was on the
• 1:03:29
  Murder made me Famous. OK, the TV show Murder made me
• 1:03:33
  famous. It was a Ted Bundy and nice.
• 1:03:36
  And that was, yeah, we did Ted Bundy and we were, I was a
• 1:03:40
  detective and James was a detective and I met him on set
• 1:03:44
  of that show. And then we, we hit it off.
• 1:03:46
  We helped him with his lines and we ended up doing the bit
• 1:03:49
  together. And then and now it's on the,
• 1:03:51
  you know, it's on reels. You can watch it on reels.
• 1:03:54
  Cool. So that was kind of that's not
• 1:03:57
  how we got James when James and I've been together since then,
• 1:04:00
  since probably, I don't know, 2014, 13 something right there.
• 1:04:06
  Nice. So yeah, when you have you have
• 1:04:10
  a cast and then we have Josephine.
• 1:04:11
  Ha. It was the the Chinese girl.
• 1:04:14
  I got her from that same show that I did the, the Saturday
• 1:04:17
  Night Live type thing here in Dallas.
• 1:04:20
  And then she's very funny. So I figured we'd use her.
• 1:04:24
  So between the, we were, the four of us were the, the, the
• 1:04:27
  whole thing or the cast, the main cast for Sheldon Nice.
• 1:04:31
  And so, well, that's how we, we got together.
• 1:04:35
  We, we, we stayed, we stayed together.
• 1:04:37
  Now the 2 girls have to stop doing Sheldon's stuff.
• 1:04:39
  They, they're doing whatever they want to do They're off.
• 1:04:42
  And so now if I I need Beverly came up with a girlfriend for me
• 1:04:46
  that's used to work for Saturday Night Live.
• 1:04:48
  I forgot her name but she wants me to work with her and maybe
• 1:04:52
  work out for the because I have 3 motion platinums based on the
• 1:04:55
  Whoopi cushion. Yeah.
• 1:05:06
  Yeah, we're basically. That's a shitty story.
• 1:05:09
  I thought myself I needed something to do with fart jokes.
• 1:05:11
  I know. Whoopi cushion then we're back
• 1:05:14
  to the future. Let me do it back.
• 1:05:16
  Let me do it back to the future one there.
• 1:05:19
  I don't know. I don't know if I publicize that
• 1:05:21
  or not. No, I haven't.
• 1:05:22
  I have an actual reel for that one, but I don't think it's on
• 1:05:26
  YouTube. I think it's on YouTube, but
• 1:05:28
  it's not public for YouTube. But anyway, it's, it's a movie
• 1:05:31
  about how the Whoopi cushion, how Sheldon goes back in time
• 1:05:35
  and, and because grandpa gave gave away the Whoopi cushion to
• 1:05:39
  his, his partner and, and he lost all the money and
• 1:05:42
  everything. So Sheldon goes back in the
• 1:05:44
  future and then he fixed it. Long story short.
• 1:05:48
  And then the second movie I wrote was have you ever thought
• 1:05:51
  about putting Star Trek and loss of space in the same movie?
• 1:05:59
  So, so I would I exactly what you have.
• 1:06:01
  So I went ahead and I put that, put that together and then
• 1:06:05
  basically Sheldon Sheldon wins a a trip to Uranus like so and
• 1:06:16
  then and then he gets lost in space.
• 1:06:18
  We get it and then and then the. Person that they the company
• 1:06:20
  that put together the the the whole the thing for them to go
• 1:06:24
  out there was people from Star Trek like Spock.
• 1:06:28
  And so basically Spock comes the you know, and then and then I
• 1:06:31
  put the mocker in there as the bag gun and he and it and, and
• 1:06:36
  they end up on on a planet that's full of cream and and
• 1:06:41
  candy. And then the bunker causes all
• 1:06:43
  kinds of trouble on there. And then the people from lost in
• 1:06:46
  space, the original cast from lost in space will be on that
• 1:06:50
  planet, or at least like people look alike them anyway.
• 1:06:54
  And then and then Star Trek would come stay of the day and
• 1:06:57
  save them. So and so that's kind of that's
• 1:07:01
  a Long story short. And the and the third movie I
• 1:07:03
  wrote was what it's called what a schmuck.
• 1:07:07
  It's basically about Sheldon's a prequel on Sheldon, how Sheldon
• 1:07:11
  started what what the story was. I asked Beverly that should be
• 1:07:15
  first. This is now I do that last.
• 1:07:17
  She said, do that one last. I says, OK, so I got 33 remarked
• 1:07:21
  the pictures that are ready to go.
• 1:07:23
  I just didn't I just need funding.
• 1:07:25
  Got a list of funding for all them so.
• 1:07:29
  Nice. Right on, Right on.
• 1:07:32
  That's awesome, man. Very cool so.
• 1:07:35
  So we got about 10 minutes here. What's on the horizon for
• 1:07:38
  Sheldon? Where can people find you?
• 1:07:40
  You, you referenced earlier when we started about a, a movie
• 1:07:43
  coming out or you, I'm sorry, not a movie coming out that you
• 1:07:45
  signed an NDA or yeah, NDA for ATV show coming and you're gonna
• 1:07:50
  you're so talk a little bit about that what you can and what
• 1:07:54
  else is on the horizon for you. And then obviously we talked
• 1:07:56
  earlier, we're going to have you come back on when the app is
• 1:07:58
  launched. So we can we can dial in and and
• 1:08:00
  focus more on the healthcare stuff and what you're doing for
• 1:08:02
  the worldwide health and mental health, which is fantastic by
• 1:08:05
  the way. But let's talk a little bit
• 1:08:07
  about more about the on. On the I'm AI haven't manage
• 1:08:12
  another manager out in LA named Chris Johns.
• 1:08:15
  And then I have Michelle Young and they put together a pro
• 1:08:18
  program work. I did.
• 1:08:20
  I did a lot of James and I've never done live.
• 1:08:23
  So we did a live show in South by Southwest a couple a couple
• 1:08:26
  weeks ago. We were we were we were Maggie
• 1:08:29
  Mays and and we actually did a a skit 1/2 an hour skit there.
• 1:08:35
  OK, and then and then they're putting it together the the
• 1:08:38
  skit. We're going to do the same skit
• 1:08:40
  again in Austin in June and then in August or September, probably
• 1:08:45
  August, we're going to do LA and then and then we're going to do
• 1:08:48
  it in New York as well. I'm in then.
• 1:08:50
  And then the more, the more people watch, the, the longer
• 1:08:53
  that the play will be. Obviously we're, we're starting
• 1:08:55
  out with 1/2 an hour and then if they want we, I have enough
• 1:08:58
  material for an hour and a half. So and so I I wrote.
• 1:09:04
  I wrote enough for the. That's not surprising.
• 1:09:15
  Sure. OK, OK, cool.
• 1:09:29
  We're going to have, we're going to have merchandise made and
• 1:09:31
  some people can buy hats and, you know, shirts and that kind
• 1:09:35
  of thing. Yeah.
• 1:09:37
  And then we're going to do where websites almost complete, the
• 1:09:41
  new websites almost complete. And then we're we're going to do
• 1:09:45
  send APR blast on that. And then we're going to have
• 1:09:51
  like fan a fanfare, fan appreciation or type thing, a
• 1:09:56
  website, whatever they can think there.
• 1:09:59
  And then let's see what else we're going to do.
• 1:10:03
  I believe that that's the main. And of course, the TV show was
• 1:10:05
  just the throwing, right? I didn't even know I was going
• 1:10:07
  to be doing that, right. That would because that was the
• 1:10:10
  last minute. The thing after the Oscars, I
• 1:10:13
  didn't realize it was going to be a movie show.
• 1:10:14
  So, so this is something new. I don't know if they have to,
• 1:10:18
  you know, the ABCCBS or Netflix have to pick up the show.
• 1:10:21
  It's a pilot first. So we have to see if it'll, if
• 1:10:23
  it'll move forward then then we'll see from 1:00.
• 1:10:26
  But yeah, now, now, question about pilots.
• 1:10:28
  Pilots don't air unless the show gets picked up, correct?
• 1:10:31
  So it's just the pilot. You shoot the pilot, then you
• 1:10:33
  you play it for all the executives and they decide if
• 1:10:35
  they're going to grab it. Right, OK.
• 1:10:38
  That's why usually the first TV show of every every TV series is
• 1:10:41
  the pilot. But nobody sees that which.
• 1:10:44
  So do they bring an audience in there like a test audience to
• 1:10:47
  watch it or is it just just the ANRANR is the wrong thing?
• 1:10:50
  But music world's ANRTV world, you know, just the executives
• 1:10:54
  and shit, but they have people come in and watch it.
• 1:10:56
  Yeah, I, I was on a couple of pilots.
• 1:10:59
  You remember Mike May, Mike. May.
• 1:11:01
  Yep, Yep. OK, I played with him on a, on a
• 1:11:04
  pilot that was, I forgot the name of the show, but it was
• 1:11:09
  about it was about two guys who were transvestites and and we
• 1:11:15
  and I went to I went to this party one time was was at A at a
• 1:11:19
  bar and they're whipping around these dildos like like those,
• 1:11:21
  like those like crazy. And and I'm like, Oh my God,
• 1:11:25
  this is crazy. And so.
• 1:11:26
  So is a modern version modern version of boosting buddies with
• 1:11:29
  Tom Hankins, Peter Scolari. Yeah.
• 1:11:32
  Remember that show? Oh.
• 1:11:33
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:11:35
  And so there I it didn't, it didn't make it obviously it
• 1:11:38
  wasn't picked. Up it probably.
• 1:11:41
  It probably get picked up now. Possibly, I mean, but I met MM
• 1:11:46
  May was one of the actors and he also was he also produced it.
• 1:11:50
  So so I didn't I, I saw Mike May is the he from the, you know,
• 1:11:55
  the School of Rock. You know, I didn't know it was
• 1:11:57
  the same. So Oh yeah, I knew.
• 1:11:58
  I knew his face when I first saw him.
• 1:12:00
  So that's Mike May over right on.
• 1:12:03
  I met him, but it was kind of cool guy and and but there was
• 1:12:07
  another pilot I did call one Mississippi that was shot in the
• 1:12:11
  Galveston that and that didn't make it either.
• 1:12:15
  So you know, it depends. I mean, and there was another
• 1:12:17
  one I did. There was like 3 different ones.
• 1:12:19
  I was a third one I did. I was, man, it's too many years
• 1:12:23
  ago. It was a religious 1 and I was,
• 1:12:27
  I was just playing extras and all those.
• 1:12:28
  But back in those days, none of those got picked up.
• 1:12:33
  So I mean, they spent thousands of dollars, I mean, on these,
• 1:12:37
  these pilots and then nothing, I mean nothing is picked up.
• 1:12:41
  I mean, you know, they, they had a deal on like on the, on the
• 1:12:44
  Batman, you remember the original Batman, the, the Adam
• 1:12:47
  Westwood. Adam West.
• 1:12:48
  Yep. Yeah.
• 1:12:48
  Oh yeah. They had a they had a, they had
• 1:12:51
  a pilot before that that that was a that was a bust.
• 1:12:55
  You know, I mean, they had they have pilots that people don't
• 1:12:59
  even know. I mean exist to a different with
• 1:13:01
  different actors all. Well, yeah, I mean, everything,
• 1:13:03
  everything starts out as a pilot, everything.
• 1:13:05
  So it's just a matter of of when it hit, if it hits or not.
• 1:13:08
  And if it doesn't hit, then they go on the next and go on the
• 1:13:09
  next until they find the hit. Then you have a show like
• 1:13:11
  Friends who changes everybody's lives and it's a game changer
• 1:13:14
  for a decade. Seinfeld, The Office, you know,
• 1:13:17
  Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn 99, all those things started
• 1:13:19
  out. It's just little ideas, you
• 1:13:22
  know? And then they explode, which is.
• 1:13:24
  Cool, but but that's the show that I'm supposed to do in in
• 1:13:27
  June is supposed to be kind of like the office symbol.
• 1:13:29
  OK, cool. Right on.
• 1:13:31
  Now see that to me, we work because I like that kind of
• 1:13:34
  filmography, cinematography that goes on.
• 1:13:36
  I like the kind of slapstick humor that's just stupid enough
• 1:13:38
  that you can turn your brain off and lose yourself on the show.
• 1:13:41
  Right. That's awesome.
• 1:13:43
  Yeah. So that's all I know.
• 1:13:45
  That's all he told me about. He didn't tell me about the name
• 1:13:48
  or how it's going to work or anything, but OK.
• 1:13:49
  Cool. Well, Beverly chimed in.
• 1:13:51
  Because I took a picture of all of us on the show and she said
• 1:13:53
