They I think they even made a 10 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 3: documentary about their relationship a number of years ago and 11 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 3: how how again just messed up it was, and how 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 3: messed up on drugs he was.

So this is Nick Reiner talking about how 17 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 3: he once destroyed his parents' house during a drug fuel rage. 18 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 4: I got totally spun out on uppers. I think it 19 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 4: was coke and something else, and I was up for 20 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 4: days on end, and I started punching out different things 21 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 4: in my guest house. 22 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 1: Like a frame, like like what like a stuff? 23 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 4: I think. I think I started with the TV and 24 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 4: then I went over to the lamp and then progressively, 25 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 4: I just everything in the guest house got wrecked. 26 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: Did you punch the TV? 27 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 3: Yeah? 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 1: I literally, did you like lacerate your hands? I mean, 29 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: so there you go. 30 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: That's just, you know, one example of the relationship that 31 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 3: that man had with drugs in conjunction with his parents. 32 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 5: And it wasn't just drugs. Mental illness had been a 33 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 5: big part. And maybe that's calls and effect with the drugs, 34 00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 5: but battled mental issues. TMZ reporting that on Saturday night, 35 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 5: there was a big Christmas party at Conan O'Brien's house 36 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 5: where Rob and Nick got into it pretty good, like 37 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 5: a loud back and forth, a noticeable back and forth. Again, 38 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 5: don't know if that has anything to do with what 39 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 5: happened here, but I do think that is somewhat of 40 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:19,959 Speaker 5: a coincidence. 41 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: You know, I forget about Rob Reiner's politics for a minute. 42 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: I mean, just to. 43 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 3: Have the career that he had, I mean, just all 44 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: the money in the world. Probably you just never know 45 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 3: what's going on behind the scenes in somebody's life, no 46 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 3: matter how successful you think they are. And to live 47 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 3: that I think he's in his mid seventies, to live 48 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 3: that long and to leave this world by the hand 49 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: of your thirty two year old son, literally by you know, 50 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 3: holding a knife, right, I mean I believe they were 51 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 3: stabbed to death. 52 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 5: It's one thing to be shot, because that can happen 53 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 5: pretty quickly, right yeah, but this was a stabbing. That's 54 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 5: such a person a way to be murdered and again 55 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 5: accused right now, but the bond to set it four 56 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 5: million dollars. Let's take a trip down memory lane here. 57 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 5: This is back when Rob Reiner was on All in 58 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 5: the Family, the seventies series Archie, Bunker and Edith and. 59 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 3: Little Before Our Time. But still the reruns are hilarious. 60 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 3: I think he played Meathead. 61 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 5: This is the scene where Meathead's father in law, Archie, 62 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 5: sees Mike putting a sock and a shoe on his feet, 63 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 5: one at the time. 64 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: Hold what you doing here? What about the other foot? 65 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 3: To make no sock on it? 66 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 6: I'll get to it. So you know that the whole 67 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 6: world puts on a sock and a sock and. 68 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: A shoe and a shoe. 69 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 6: I'd like to take care of one foot at a time. 70 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 6: It's just as quick my way. 71 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: Wait a minute, that ain't the plant. 72 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 6: Suppose there's a fire in a house, and you've got 73 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 6: above your life your way. 74 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 4: While you got on his one shoe on a sock, 75 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 4: my way. 76 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 6: You got on a sock on a sock. 77 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: Do you see you mean? 78 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 6: I suppose it's raining and snowing outside your way. With 79 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 6: a sock on each foot, my feet would get you 80 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 6: way my way. With a sock and a shoe on 81 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 6: one foot, I could hop around and stay dry. 82 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 3: It was a great director. I mean Spinal Tap was 83 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: his first movie. As a matter of fact, let's play 84 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: a clip here. Rob Runners starred in his own movie. 85 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 3: He was the documentarian in the movie Marty in This Spin. 86 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: He was Marty in Spinal Tap. 87 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, yeah, yeah exactly. So here's the I think 88 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 3: we all know this scene where the guitarist, Nigel, the 89 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 3: guitarist played by Christopher Guest, is showing how the band's 90 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 3: Marshall lamps quote go to eleven. 91 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 5: You can see, Yeah, the numbers all go to eleven 92 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 5: eleven or eleven mostly eleven, and amps go. 93 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 2: Up to ten. 94 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 5: Exactly Does that mean it's louder? 95 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 6: Is it any louder? 96 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: Well, it's one louder, isn't it. What we do is 97 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: if we need that extra push. 98 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 4: Over the cliff. 99 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: You know, we do put it up. 100 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 4: To eleven exactly one loud. 101 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 6: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten 102 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 6: be the top number, and make that a little louder. 103 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: These come to eleven, please go to eleven. 104 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 3: He had like from eighty four to ninety two, hit 105 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 3: after hit after hit, after a few good Men. Maybe 106 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 3: you could say The American President was a good movie, 107 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 3: but it was Spinal Tap, it was stand by Me, 108 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 3: it was Princess Brian, it was when Harry met Sally. 109 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: It was Misery. 110 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 3: It was a Few Good Men, which is one of 111 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 3: my favorite movies of all time with Tom Cruise. After that, though, 112 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 3: I feel like the quality of the movies he was 113 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 3: directing kind of took a downward spiral a little bit. 114 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 3: But boy, he had that decade there where it was just, 115 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: I mean, mega hit after mega hit, and. 116 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 5: Go back a few months when Charlie Kirk was murdered 117 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 5: on the stage again, Rob Reyner super leftist. Like to 118 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 5: say that he's a super leftist is almost not doing 119 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 5: him justice. I will give him credit. While he did 120 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 5: not do it for Rush Limbaugh, he showed a little 121 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 5: compassion when Charlie Kirk was murdered on that stage in Utah. 122 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 5: He joined Piers Morgan on his show to talk about it. 123 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 5: You first heard about the murder of Charlie Kirk, what 124 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 5: was your immediate gut reaction to it? 125 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 2: Well, horror, absolute horror, and I unfortunately saw the video 126 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 2: of it and it's it's beyond belief what happened to him, 127 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: and that should never happened to anybody. I don't care 128 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: what your political beliefs are. That's not acceptable. That's not 129 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 2: a solution to solving problems. And I felt like what 130 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: his wife said at the service, that the memorial they 131 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: had was exactly right and totally I believe. You know, 132 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 2: I'm Jewish, but I believe in the teachings of Jesus, 133 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 2: and I believe in doing to others, and I believe 134 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: in forgiveness. And what she said to me was. 135 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: Beautiful. And now we're sitting here saying the same things 136 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:46,679 Speaker 1: about him. It's so bizarre and sad all the same time.
