59
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 8: one we had, where we had a frankling of snow

60
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 8: and it froze and we lost power for more people.

61
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 8: By that was over almost two weeks, and and then

62
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 8: you know that one was a terrible one, and there

63
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 8: you know, it's kept icing over, icing over. Anyway, this

64
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 8: one was so beautiful. It was what a snow day,

65
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 8: and what a beautiful Christmas. It seemed like a Christmas

66
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 8: day that the Lord gave us there. And I just

67
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 8: was very pressure with that, and you know what, it

68
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 8: was gone in a day and a half.

69
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 3: How But Lilla, if I remember correctly, and I didn't

70
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 3: look it up, I think you were raised in Kentucky,

71
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 3: But I.

72
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 8: Well and if we saw snow out the window, Mommy, mommy,

73
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 8: I want to go, go exactly.

74
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 3: So, you remember, I was raised in Orange, Texas. On

75
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 3: the Louisiana morning, we didn't have snow. So so for us,

76
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 3: if we in my life as a kid, in my

77
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 3: entire childhood, if we had had the snow that we

78
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 3: had here last week, I would have lost my mind.

79
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 4: It would have been so exciting.

80
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 8: Yeah, you weren't here, right, Uh, yes.

81

92
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 3: and they promise us that every year, and it's nothing

93
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 3: but disappointment.

Speaker 4: What do you like about living in Houston? Why do

119
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 4: you stay here?

120
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 8: Well? First of all, it's the people. I mean the

121
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 8: hospitality here. There's wonderful people here and everybody's friendly. Nobody

122
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 8: bothers you, you know, except if you're go in the

123
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 8: wrong areas. But I just love it. I had a

124
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 8: great friend here and Charlie Thomas. Before I moved here,

125
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 8: he had the Houston Rockets and he's a great friend.

126
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 8: He got me here. He kept saying, come to Houston,

127
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 8: Come to Houston, because I was going to go back

128
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 8: to Florida. And Uh, anyway, that's how I got here.

129
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 4: And we are glad you were here. Ramon, you know who.

130
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: Charlie Thomas was passed away a couple of years ago,

131
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 3: but Charlie Thomas was a legend.

132
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 8: In me on the Houston Rockets there at one time.

133
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 8: I'm in one of the biggest car dealers in the country.

134
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 3: And I never got invited to the ranch, but I

135
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: always wanted to. But my understanding is that he and

136
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: you held forth for some epic.

137
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 4: Poker games at his ranch.

138
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 8: No. Actually it was a little dice game which was

139
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 8: very simple, and we had ten or twelve people come

140
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 8: up there and they have a big dinner and then

141
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 8: the hall guys and then we say out and do

142
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 8: this game around the table, and it was just so

143
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 8: much fun. You know. He had he had a beautiful

144
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 8: place there, and he had his house of course, he

145
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 8: had a little monkhouse, and he had a saloon that

146
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 8: was as big as the one thing had over and

147
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 8: Brennan and Brennan were over somewhere and he copied it.

148
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 8: It was like he'd have over one hundred people up

149
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 8: there every year from the locals and all of his

150

00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 3: message from Lee Major's wishing me a happy birthday. We

161
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 3: have a mutual friend and I told her I would

162
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 3: love to say hello to him one day because I

163
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 3: was such a big fan. And this guy got lead

164
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 3: to do this for me and my wife played the

165
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: video message to me and on my birthday, and don't

166
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 3: think less of me, or don't think I'm less a man,

167
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 3: or think less of me. But I have to admit

168
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 3: I teared up imagining that he took the time to

169
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 3: do that.

170
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 4: How nice is that?

171
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 8: Are you talking to me?

172
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that story was about you. You didn't send me

173
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 3: a video message on my birthday.

174
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 8: But you know I do a lot of those.

175
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 4: That's nice.

176
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 3: What's the point of having celebrity if you're not going

177
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 3: to share it with people like that?

178
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 4: You're putting it to good use.

179
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I understand that, And that's the key is

180
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 8: just be nice to people. Of course, be nice to

181
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 8: people on the way up because you might not see

182
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 8: them on the way down.

183
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 3: Well, let's talk about that, because most people are supposed

184
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: to have this twilight period where they're forgotten about and

185
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 3: then you know, their name pops up and we go, oh,

186
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 3: what ever happened to that guy? You're eighty five and

187
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 3: you are maybe you don't wait wait.

188
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 8: Wait, wait, wait, just there that's a correct you. No, No,

189
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 8: I'm fifty eight.

190
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 4: Fifty eight. I'm sorry. You know what I got? Dyslexia?

191
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 8: Well, no, Biden had dyslexia. Turned I turned it around

192
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 8: because it sounds better.

193
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: You weren't supposed to tell that I was doing the

194
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 3: show from Aspen because people didn't.

195
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 8: I didn't.

196
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 4: You outed, Well, okay, so let's talk about that. I

197
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 4: think this is so.

198
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 8: You were only there a couple of days. You out

199
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 8: of yourself, but I was in Aspen.

200
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 3: Yes, let's talk about this exhibit in California, because this

201
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 3: is cool.

202
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 8: Okay, all right, Well, first of all, you know, I

203
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 8: I had I have had a daughter out there, you know,

204
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 8: all the fires that are going on, and she's her

205
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 8: and there she has like you know, four kids and

206
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 8: three dogs, and she who was in the Palisades and

207
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 8: they had to evacuate. And of course that he saw

208
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 8: what happened in the Palisades.

209
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 5: But.

210
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 8: It almost burned everything out of Palisades. But you know

211
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 8: what I see after see exactuated, She said, I think

212
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 8: it's it's gone, dad, you know. And I said, well,

213
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 8: I'm praying to God and made a miracle and it'll

214
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 8: you still be standing, you know. Well, she got a

215
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 8: chance later a couple of days later to go in

216
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 8: with a fire patrol her and her husband, and believe

217
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 8: it or not, it was still standing. And what do

218
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 8: you say to that. You know, it was a lot

219
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 8: of mess, you know, but the smoke mess and stuff

220
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 8: like that, but at least the structure was still there,

221
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 8: you know. And it just amazes me. When you do

222
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 8: a good prayer, miracles do happen, my friend. So anyway,

223
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 8: I've been, I mean praying for another friend named Terry Kaiser.

224
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 8: I don't know if you can remember him. Well, he

225
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 8: uh he was Bernie in weekend at Bernie's. He was

226
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 8: a leader at the Star of two Weekend at Bernie Movies.

227
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 8: And he was a fabulous and that and he didn't

228
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,599
Speaker 8: known for that for many many years. And he's the

229
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 8: same age to me. He is eighty five. And he

230
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 8: was away and he got a phone call that his

231
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 8: house was on fire. And I don't know where he was,

232
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,839
Speaker 8: but by the time he was a get there, he

233
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 8: did burn to the ground. And it was a place

234
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 8: that he lived in there in Colorado and in uh Ridgeway.

235
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 8: It was his little town and near Uray and across

236
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 8: over the mountain there was you know, all the snow

237
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 8: ski resorts and stuff, but this was just out in

238
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 8: the country kind of thing, that's all. He had and

239
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 8: I said, well, guy, what do you need? He said,

240
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 8: where you got? He said, well, I got two pairs

241
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 8: of socks, three pair three T shirts, maybe four pair

242
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 8: of underwear. And mcgoffused, I went to bed and I

243
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 8: woke up at three in the morning. I couldn't take it.

244
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 8: So we went in and grabbed a bag and I

245
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 8: to underwear, socks, T shirts, heavy, some more heavy stuff

246
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 8: and me and anything I could put in there. And

247
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 8: I got a ship to him within two days, and

248
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 8: so my god, thanks, I got something. And then I

249
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 8: got another box much later. But he's doing doing well.

250
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,199
Speaker 8: He's staying in a place and they're going to rebuild

251
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 8: his insurance company. They got to hit fire insurance. So anyway,

252
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 8: moving on the Palisade fire and all those side Altadena

253
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 8: and Obasady everywhere, there was fires all over the place.

254
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 8: I've never heard of anything, seen anything like that. I mean,

255
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 8: I mean those people have say they don't pray enough,

256
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 8: and it just happened. It just happened. And my daughter

257
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 8: was in the middle. But I remember, and I said her,

258
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 8: I say, but I'm thinking, here's the story on this

259
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 8: banana deal. Okay, you you heard the guy that the

260
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 8: guy that sold a banana for six million dollars. Uh. Anyway, Uh,

261
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 8: he has a gallery out there. Well he sold his

262
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 8: to a crypto entrepreneur and uh, and he's in his studio.

263
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 8: The gallery is in the Venetian Resort. And so I

264
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 8: guess this crypto guy came in there and and he

265
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 8: bought it. And then I heard not long ago he

266
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 8: ate it.

267
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 4: He invited the press to come watch him. He invited thee.

268
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 8: Yeah we actually he said in.

269
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 4: Front of him. I mean, but here's the thing we're

270
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 4: talking about it.

271
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 3: So he spent six million dollars advertising for everybody to

272
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 3: know he's got a crypto fund, and he probably made

273
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: six sixty million dollars off of the publicity because the

274
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 3: end of the day, it's all about the publicity. I'm

275
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: filibustering you because I want you to tell the story.

276
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 3: And we were about we're up against a break, so

277
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 3: I wanted you to have a full segment to tell it.

292
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 3: If you have thirty seconds, I'll read it to you. Welcome,

293
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 3: Welcome to Twin Oaks Ranch. This ranch is offered for

294
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 3: the first time and has so much to offer for

295
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 3: every buyer. The iconic ranch has been published in the

296

Speaker 3: has made the list for its beauty, location and amenities

298
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,480

299
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 3: Charlie Thomas and his wife Kitsey. They created a retreat

300
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 3: as well as a place for recreation. It was also

301
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 3: a place to call home to their infamous collection of

302
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: antique cars. Once you arrive and drive through the gated entrance,

303
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: you will be amazed what lies beyond a certain a

304
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 3: curtain of one hundred year old oak trees. There's not

305
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 3: enough space to describe this ranch in one paragraph. You

306
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 3: must see for yourself from the custom Green Hall, that's

307
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 3: the what you're talking about, replica that they took it

308

Speaker 3: almost six acre rated lake with fishing cabin. If you

312
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,199
Speaker 3: have an imagination, this property can take you there. They

313
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: should have said this is where Lee Majors used to

314
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 3: hang out.

315

371
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 8: an amazing and it's called and an like a an

372
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 8: amazing gallery and it's in the Grand Canal shops at

373
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 8: the Venetian Resort in Vegas. Okay, he put a playful

374
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 8: twist on this viral phenomenon, and they just unveiled a

375
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 8: new piece that features a vintage I say, nineteen seventy

376
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 8: three Kinner, a six million dollar man action figure holding

377
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 8: an acritic banana which is taped to a piece of

378
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 8: light or foam board and then measuring eighteen inches about

379
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 8: thirteen inches and anyway, it's turning his up there and

380
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,959
Speaker 8: it's going to go to option. I don't know exactly

381
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 8: when be coming up very quick. The other one was

382
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,479
Speaker 8: that so I think somebody said this was the Christism. Anyway,

383
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 8: let me get it down to you what the reason is.

384
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 8: I got contacted by him, and he wondered he told

385
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 8: me about and he wondered if I would fly up

386
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 8: and he'd fly me there and put me up and

387
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 8: to sign when I signed it in his studio, and

388
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 8: I thought, you know, I don't do stuff like that.

389
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 8: I really don't like to do that stuff. But anyway,

390
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 8: that's you know. Then the fire happened and he called

391
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 8: me back after he sent me, have you thought it over?

392
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 8: And I said, yeah, you know what, I'll do that,

393
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 8: but you got to guarantee h a portion of the

394
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 8: the prophets, so whatever the amount of it is to

395
00:20:55,280 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 8: go to the American Red Cross in the Palisades, know,

396
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 8: in that area, to help help people there. So that's

397
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 8: what I'm doing that and I'm flying out in here

398
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 8: on Thursday. I'm going to be there on Friday and Saturday.

399
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 4: How long will it be at the Venetian.

400
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 8: I don't know. Well, he'll probably leave it on for

401
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,360
Speaker 8: a while after, you know, he just kind of unveiled

402
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 8: it so that people will come and see it and everything,

403
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,399
Speaker 8: and then he'll put it on the auction. I don't know.

404
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 4: Are you a fan of the Eagles?

405
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 8: Sure? I remember. I haven't had a dinner once with

406
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 8: Oh what's the lead singers? Yeah, Don Henley, Don Henley.

407
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 4: You've had dinner with everybody?

408
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 8: Oh no, come on, well a lot of people. Let

409
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 8: me tell you. You know, I hate the title of

410
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 8: that series that they gave the six million Dollar Man,

411
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 8: because you know, people that I'll never get away from

412
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 8: that title, you know, And and you know, people think

413
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 8: I made a lot of money on that show. We're

414
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 8: talking way back, you know, in the seventies. The big

415
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 8: value was in the sixties, and didn't I didn't get

416
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 8: a penny from that. It's reruns every day, but I

417
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 8: don't get anything from that. And because there were no

418
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,640
Speaker 8: residuals back then, and you know, everything else was under

419
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 8: a contractor universal and the deals weren't very big. So

420
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 8: you know, people, oh, he's a sixty not a man

421
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 8: who's going to hear in a Carange because I'm not

422
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 8: the sixty dollar man you think, you know, so I'm

423
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 8: still doing a little comic cons here and there that

424
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 8: kind of paid the bills.

425
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 3: And anyway, I've never been to comic con, but I

426
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 3: am told by my friend Ken Webster, who does go

427
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 3: and who is one of these.

428
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 4: He's really really.

429
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 3: Into it, and he says that amazingly but not surprisingly,

430
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 3: you are one of the top draws to this day.

431
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 4: People love you at that event.

432
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 8: No, no, you know who's that's out draw or less

433
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 8: is William Shatner, my buddy, my friend.

434
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 4: I would believe that. I would believe that.

435
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you know they they so some of us

436
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 8: say so some of the stuff had a you know,

437
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,719
Speaker 8: like I can't remember what all these figures were, but

438
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 8: you know, you had a lot of memorabilia stuff, but

439
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 8: actually stuff that they used in the show.

440
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 3: And that's because Shatner has what you have and very

441
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 3: few people have, which is, no matter what you do,

442
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 3: it's cool and cool is not.

443
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 4: Something you can you can create or build or buy it.

444
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 4: You just are or you're not.

Speaker 9: Well, Hard hit the Isles, dashing and screaming.

455
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 4: Stone thought.

456
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 3: Recently of Kevin Pollack on The rich Eisenshow telling a

457
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 3: story about working with Walter Matthow and Jack Lemon on

458
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 3: Grumpy Old Men. You know, you go back and see

459
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 3: Walter Matthow in a serious role in the seventies and

460
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 3: you go, oh, well, that's not bad news, bears. I

461
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 3: didn't know Walter Matthew was a serious actor, but he was.

462
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 3: And Jack Lemon, of course a legend, they both are.

463
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 3: That's what made that film so much fun is you

464
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 3: could be a young person and watch.

465
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 4: That and go, oh, he's like my papa.

466
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 3: But older folks saw this was two grumpy old men

467
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 3: playing grumpy old men as comedic actors. There were so

468
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 3: much more. Jack Lemon in Glengarry Glenn Ross is so

469
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 3: good as this beaten down guy at the end of

470
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 3: his career trying to hold on to a paycheck because he's.

471
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,960

Speaker 11: never get him to swear when when their horse had

515
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 11: come in.

Speaker 4: He couldn't get Fredistaire to swear. Ever, he tried so

517
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 4: hard to get.

518
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 11: Him to to use any curse word. He couldn't. Ever,

519

Speaker 11: and then one day I got an envelope and vania

520
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 11: Velo Manila. I went down the pigging to open it

521
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 11: up and tape, but put it in and pushed the

522
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 11: button and it's Fred Astare calling a race as the announcer,

523
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 11: and the name of every horse was the most disgusting

524
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 11: curse race we've ever heard that I cannot repeat one

525
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,719
Speaker 11: of them. But he calls the entire race, and so

526
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 11: and so is coming up on the outside, and every

527
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 11: horse's name is absolutely just more disgusting than the left,

528
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 11: I mean disgusting. So I said, where's this tank. It's

529
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 11: in a vault. You know, his whole life, he just

530
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 11: put it in the vault. No one's ever going to

531
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 11: hear this. I said, I've got to. He said, no,

532
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 11: not a chance, kid. But imagine this goes down on

533
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 11: the edge of the drive and there's a Minila envelope

534
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 11: and he opens it up and it's.

535
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:49,520
