So I'm not gonna tell any of 17 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: his part of the wedding, but I will share a 18 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,919 Speaker 1: little bit as far as me being involved in it. 19 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: And I want to go back to the very beginning 20 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: of how I met Bobby and if you're not familiar 21 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: with my story, how I became a part of the 22 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: show and how Bobby and I became friends. It actually 23 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: all started with a message I sent him on my Space. 24 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: This was like eleven years ago. I was trying to 25 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: start a podcast at the time, and I had just 26 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: moved to Austin, Texas from Marcacachi. I was going to 27 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: college there, and I specifically remember the first time I 28 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 1: ever heard Bobby on the radio. He used to be 29 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: on Kiss FM back in Austin, and I was driving 30 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: to class and I heard a conversation. It was Bobby 31 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: talking about he had recently turned a thirty or thirty one, 32 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: the age I am now, which is kind of crazy, 33 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: and he was saying he was beginning to think he 34 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: was too old to wear a baseball hat backwards. And 35 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: there was that whole debate they were having on the air, 36 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: and I was just like, that was I've never really 37 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: heard that on the radio before, a guy being really 38 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: sincere and real. So from that very first conversation I heard, 39 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: I kept listening to the show, and throughout listening to 40 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: the show, I started hearing about these interns and you know, 41 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: if you're a way way back in the day listener, 42 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: the show used to be really big on having interns, 43 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: and they would get new ones with every class and 44 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: with the way they would talk about him on the air, 45 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: they were basically a part of the show. If you 46 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: could work your way up to like the head intern spot, 47 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: you were basically a member of the show. And I 48 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: heard all these college kids on the radio and I 49 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I kind of want to 50 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: do that. And after listening to the show for a 51 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: year just being a listener, and then I also wanted 52 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: to start my own podcast. So, you know what, I 53 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: thought to myself, I'll message him on my Space and 54 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: see if he could just give me some advice on 55 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: how to start one. He's been doing this forever and 56 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: podcasts were still relatively new at the time this is 57 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: they're nothing what they are like now. So I messaged 58 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: him asking for some advice. Bobby messaged me back pretty 59 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: quickly and said, you know what, just come up to 60 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: the radio station and watch like thirty minutes of the 61 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: show and you can kind of see how we do 62 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: it live, and you know that would be your notes. 63 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: Take that back and start a podcast. So while I 64 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: was there, I met the executive producer at the time, Elena, 65 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: and I also met with all the interns there, and 66 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: from that moment, I was like, you know what, this 67 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: is what I want to do. I figured out how 68 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: to get an internship. I did that for probably a 69 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: year and a halfter two years. I found a way 70 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: just to stay there. And I think it was during 71 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: that internship where Bobby was able to kind of see 72 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: my work ethic. I was there all the time, and 73 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: he took note of that. He gave me more and 74 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: more responsibility. The more it could take on and the 75 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: more I kind of proved myself. And I remember specifically 76 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: the day they said they were moving to Nashville, and 77 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: he sat me down and was like, we don't have 78 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: a spot for you right now, but I'm going to 79 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: send back for you and you will come to us 80 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: in Nashville when there was a spot available for you. 81 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: And I remember that and I believed him, and in 82 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: my head, I always knew that I was going to 83 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: be a part of the show. I just saw it 84 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: in my I wanted it so badly that I knew 85 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: was going to happen, and I believed his word. And 86 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: it was through the show moving to Nashville, me staying 87 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: in Austin, and I still worked in the radio station. 88 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: Bobby actually got me my first job there. I was 89 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: running the show locally here while I was in Austin, 90 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: and it was kind of through that time where I 91 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: was there and they were here for the first few 92 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: years that Bobby and I became more friends, to the 93 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: point where I kind of started this podcast on my 94 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: Snapchat at the time. I would review things on Snapchat 95 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: and Bobby would see them and actually be like, Hey, 96 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: send me that audio and I'll play it on our show. 97 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: Like I was not a part of the main show 98 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,799 Speaker 1: in Nashville, but I was sending him bits in a way, 99 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: So we kind of built our friendship there, and obviously 100 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: every time they would come to Austin, we would still 101 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: hang out until the day finally came where I moved 102 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: to Nashville, and that was really where things kind of 103 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: got real. I lived with him for the first few 104 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: months living in Nashville, and we started to get really 105 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: close as we started to work on the show and 106 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: kind of build what the show is today. And it 107 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: was mainly because he trusted me a lot and believed 108 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: in me to give me a type of responsibility that 109 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: no one has ever had before. And while this is 110 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: all going on, I'm getting more things in my career. 111 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: We also start traveling a lot together, and I mean 112 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 1: we went hard for probably like two years. We spent 113 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: more time with each other than anybody else in our lives. 114 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: We were going NonStop doing the radio show, comedy tours. 115 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: He gave me a spot on his comedy tour. Opening up. 116 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: I went from being only able to say I've been 117 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: to like three states now close to forty something. And 118 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 1: even though Bobby is like eleven years older than me, 119 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: I felt like we kind of grew up together during 120 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: that time. And it was mainly through us kind of 121 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: being in the same point of our lives of like 122 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: trying to find somebody, trying to find a relationship. And 123 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: I remember having many conversations with him where he gave 124 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: me guidance, where I listened to what he had going 125 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: on his personal life and trying to date. And I 126 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: was there through a lot of it up until now 127 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: and even leading up to how both of our kind 128 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: of lives have changed in the past two years of 129 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: being in serious relationships. We got engaged within a week 130 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: from each other, and then we both got married within 131 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: a month from each other. It was crazy to see 132 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: him actually get married, and how we both kind of 133 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: went from this life of utter chaos and not having 134 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: anything consistent in our lives so now both being able 135 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: to settle down with somebody who truly makes us both happy. 136 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: And what I took away most from that day of 137 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: his wedding was I've never seen him that happy. Like 138 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: I've seen things that make him happy here and there, 139 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: but nothing the way he is now. And as odd 140 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: as it sounds, how human he appears now to be 141 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: and just to be able to enjoy things is a 142 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: big thing for him. And that's something I saw a 143 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: lot on his wedding day. To look on his face 144 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: was something I've never really seen before, to where he 145 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: was completely living in the moment, and I can tell 146 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: he was just overjoyed and said the word I love you, 147 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: that phrase so many times it was amazing to hear. 148 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: For a person who had never really said that to 149 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: anybody in his life to now kind of go around and, 150 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, tell a bunch of people that the way 151 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: he actually feels. And he asked me maybe six months 152 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: or so ago to be a groomsman in his wedding, 153 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: and it was kind of in that moment I realized 154 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: how our relationship went from being an intern on the 155 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: show to being a member of the show to becoming 156 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: friends and him kind of also being at the same 157 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: time my mentor and guiding me through all this stuff 158 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: that in that moment, I felt like I didn't realize 159 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: that we became family, and not only everybody on the show, 160 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: but even you guys listening, like I feel like a 161 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: part of a different family that I didn't realize I had. 162 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: When I moved to Nashville, I didn't know anybody. I 163 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: lived with Bobby and his dog, Dusty at the time, 164 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: was like the first friend I made moving to Nashville. 165 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: And when he asked me to be a part of 166 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: his wedding and then going on the bachelor party, I 167 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: felt something I never felt before of being a part 168 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: of a group. The whole time, I was kind of 169 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: like searching for somebody here and feeling like I didn't 170 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: have friends, and I didn't realize that I had it 171 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: the whole time. And it was standing up there as 172 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: he's saying his vows is he's getting married, that this 173 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 1: all kind of set in with me. How sometimes you 174 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: don't realize the relationships you're building and the things that 175 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: you're doing are like really fundamental and are really kind 176 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: of building onto the bigger picture. You don't realize how 177 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: much other people affect you and how much you kind 178 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: of become a part of each other's lives. So it 179 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: really meant a lot of me to be a part 180 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: of that day that he would consider me an essential 181 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: part of his life, to stand out there with him, 182 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: and realizing now that he and Caitlin are probably going 183 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: to be in my life for the entire time that 184 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: I am living, so that that just says a lot. 185 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm really happy for them. I'm also really happy that 186 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: he's also on his honeymoon right now and able to 187 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: take a break away from work and enjoy being married now. 188 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: So all that to say, he's come a long way 189 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: and I'm proud of him and happy for him. And 190 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: I wanted to share this episode that we recorded last year, 191 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: talking about some of his favorite movies, the time he 192 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 1: had a small role in a big Hollywood production, and 193 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: how much he made to be in a movie called 194 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: Band Slam. So I will be act next week with 195 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: the new episode.

In a world where 199 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: everyone and their mother has a podcast, one man stands 200 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: to infiltrate the ears of listeners like never before in 201 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: a movie podcast. A man with so much movie knowledge. 202 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: He's basically like a walking on MTV with classes from 203 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: the Nashville Podcast Network Movie Movie Podcast. All right, joining 204 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 1: me now on the podcast, we have Bobby Bones. Never 205 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: heard of this guy. I've never interviewed you before, so 206 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 1: it'll be a bit different today. Well, I tend to 207 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: uh take it my own way, so feel free to 208 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: stop me. But let me start by saying that, Okay, 209 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: I started watching the movie about the Beastie Boys last night. Yeah, 210 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: I know this is a movie podcast. I started it 211 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: last night too. I don't like how. I don't like 212 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: how they put it together, how it's a lie show. 213 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: I want a documentary the Best Boys. Yeah, that got 214 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: me a bit off from and I was trying to 215 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,719 Speaker 1: watch with Kalin and I would have been into it 216 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: enough to sit through all of it like that, but 217 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: that was a struggle for her. I just I don't 218 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: like how it's format it now. I only watched again, 219 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: probably a sixth of its well, because she wasn't feeling it. 220 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: She didn't know the guys on stage. I think if 221 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: it were a documentary, a good documentary you can watch 222 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: without knowing anything personally about it. You can just jump 223 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: in and go, I'm learning something. But you kind of 224 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 1: needed to know who those guys were when they're out, 225 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: because if you haven't seen it yet, you probably haven't 226 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: because I'm a big Beastie Boys fan and I had 227 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: it until last night. There it's a in a theater 228 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: and it's a live recording of the Beastie Boys showing 229 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: pictures and telling stories of their life. Does it ever 230 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: get more as a documentary or does it stay like that? 231 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: It stays like I've watched an hour of it and 232 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: it stays like that the whole time, and I think 233 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: it's still interesting. But yeah, like you said, it feels 234 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: like you're not really getting the whole story because they're 235 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: kind of just telling it and lets you know them already. 236 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: You don't feel it's connected, like, oh, you could just 237 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: go into this without knowing anything about them. And I 238 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: love the Beasto Boys, one of the most influential musical 239 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: groups of my life when it comes to how I 240 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: modeled any of my career, not not just broadcasting, but 241 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: the music. I like the music that I do kind 242 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: of funny, and for a while I was a funny 243 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: hip hop artist and you know, being a white kid, 244 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: and you see other white guys that were funny but 245 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: could still be cool. So uh, yeah, I'm not through 246 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: one on how you felt about that? Will you finish 247 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: with them? I will, but I won't with her. I'll 248 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: probably finish it tonight. Did your girl watch it with you? Yeah? 249 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: She liked it, but she likes yeah. Okay, Well that's all. 250 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: That's my movie topic that I brought in for discussion. 251 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: But I'm not all the way there yet, so I'll 252 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 1: give you an update later. All right. So what I 253 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: want to do is get to know you more through movies. 254 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: So I guess I want to know your favorite movies 255 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: from your life and like why they affected you. And 256 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: you call them your favorite movies. Well, it's interesting because 257 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: I'm not a movie guy as much as you are 258 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: this as much as I'm not. Just I mean, I 259 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: guess I watch them, but I never really care to 260 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: sit down for that long, um, unless it was a 261 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: true story I could get more. It's like books. I 262 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: can very much get into a non fiction book because 263 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm learning. Even if it's not great 264 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 1: a great book, I still feel like I'm learning. I 265 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: would compare all my media consumption for movies or books 266 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: like to The Queen's. Other movie that that ss on 267 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: Netflix is called The Queen The Crown. Yeah, the Crown, 268 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: thank you, because it's kind of boring, but it's just 269 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: good enough. But because you're learning, you stay in. That's 270 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: how I kind of feel about my movie. So I 271 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: was thinking about this. My top three movies at number 272 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: three is probably Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Oh interesting 273 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: because not since I to watch over and over again. 274 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: But that's not in my criteria for best movies. My 275 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: criteria is stages of my life, movies that affected me 276 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: the most in what way? And Bill and Ted's Excellent 277 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: Adventure was met for two reasons. One because it was funny, 278 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 1: but two I learned something in it because in this movie, 279 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: Bill and Ted are two idiot kids who have to 280 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: go back in time to create, uh like an spoken 281 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: report in a theater to pass, and if they don't 282 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: get a great or so, they fail out of school 283 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: and I I have to go to boarding school. I haven't 284 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: seen it so long, I'm yeah. So what they do 285 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: is they find this time machine with George Carlin and 286 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: they go back through history and they meet all these 287 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: famous people and Napoleon, which I was like, okay, I 288 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,599 Speaker 1: know a little about Napoleon, but maybe you want to 289 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: learn more about Napoleon. Um so creates who's also Socrate? 290 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: Who I So you learn about all these folks, uh 291 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: Joan of Arc, Abraham Lincoln as you're laughing and it's 292 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: a really stupid movie. I also felt myself learned name 293 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: and that for the much much of my life. I 294 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: told us probably nineteen or twenty was my favorite movie. 295 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: I was just that was it. That's what I just 296 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: stuck with. The movie came out nine were probably nine. 297 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: Did you watch it when it came out or would 298 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: you watch it later? Like it's a teenager? Probably when 299 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: it came out to rent because we really couldn't afford 300 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: to go to the movie. Um I went to as 301 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: a young kid, I would say twelve or below. I 302 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: probably went to two movies, and it was they were both. 303 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: When my mom met my stepdad, he took me to 304 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: watch The Babe with John Goodman because we were both 305 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: big baseball fans and white Man Can't Jump and enjoyed 306 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: both of them, and they were sports movies, and that's 307 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: really how we bonded was through sports. But I can't 308 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: really remember going to any movie other than him taking 309 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: me to my first movies at twelve, and those were 310 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: the two that I went to. I guess that was 311 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: the same way because I remember I had I didn't 312 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: go to the movies a lot as a kid, but 313 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: I had a cousin who would get everything on VA. Yes, 314 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: and that's kind of where I got all my movies from. 315 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: Like I'd be like, oh, yeah, all these movies I 316 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: get to watch now. Yeah, we would go to on 317 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: because what would happen at the movie store, which was 318 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 1: on the way to town. You could stop at the 319 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: movie store and you could rent a movie on Friday 320 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: and pay the and you get to keep it till Sunday. However, 321 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: if you went on Saturday in the movies were left 322 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 1: over because Saturday wasn't a big, big rental day because 323 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: it only got one day to keep it. Like Thursday 324 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: was Friday, Wednesday was Thursday, but Friday was you can 325 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: bring back Sunday. You got that extra day because it 326 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: was the same movie. You got a half off, so 327 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: if you want so, we would go on a Saturday 328 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: see what was left, and we rent movies from the 329 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: you know, dollar ninety nine or dollar twenty nine movie rental. 330 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: You never got the big ones. But I'm positive that 331 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: I saw Bill and Ted on VHS for the first 332 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: time and watched it a lot of I think, kind 333 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: of buying it um which was crazy because I don't 334 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: think we had a BCR for a lot of time. 335 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: But that's at number three and that that's really the 336 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: only movie that I'm bringing in from childhood. So Bill 337 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: and Ted's excent a mature. That means Bill and Ted's 338 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: two was okay, wasn't that great? It was Bill and 339 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: Ted and the Grim Reaper was in it, Like I 340 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: don't remember. I remember being excited for it to come out, 341 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: watched on VHS and it was like it was okay. 342 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: I still loved it was Bill and Ted, but there 343 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: they just made Bill and Ted three. Yea, hopefully they 344 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: finished it. Do we know if they finished it. I 345 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: think it's what's close to being finished, but it's obviously delayed. 346 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: To come out. Um, so that number three, that number two, Well, 347 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: this is where it kind of got tricky with me, because, like, 348 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: what movies just hit me the hardest. I guess because 349 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: I definitely wouldn't put down movies I've seen the most 350 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: as my favorite movies, because that would be something on 351 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: TBS that I would stop. Hitch I've probably seen. I've 352 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: probably seen Hitch more than any movie just because it's 353 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: been on so many times. So I took that out 354 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: of my sort of list of things I needed to 355 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: have my favorite movie. So then I go, Okay, what movie. 356 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: Just when I finished it, I was like, oh, and 357 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: it had to. I guess I can put them ball 358 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: the number two. But the one that almost made the 359 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: list was Her. It didn't make the list. But the 360 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: other one, the other one I want to pick it 361 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: takes its spot is that movie. When it finished, I 362 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: went today, I felt that because Her before I honorable mention. 363 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: Her is about a guy who just can't find love 364 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: because he's odd. So he finds love with an outside 365 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: but it was an outsider. That's really the the over 366 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: art of the story. It's not so much that's an 367 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: operating system. That's a big part of it. But the 368 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: real part of the story is guy doesn't fit in. 369 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: He finds some other way to find somebody he loves 370 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: and it turns out it's you know, basically, you're falling 371 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: in love with Safari on your computer. Um. And so 372 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: if you look at it from you know, above the 373 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: forest instead of in the trees, it's a sad romantic story. 374 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: If you look from the trades, the weird old guy 375 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: who falls in love with a computer. UM. I loved 376 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: her because when I turned it off, I was like, Dang, 377 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: I kind of felt that I could never fit in, 378 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 1: never had girls. Was always like I'm gonna have to 379 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: fall in love with something or someone different. Um. But 380 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: I watched that and there's a great movie. I loved 381 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: it that you either loved that or hat did that? 382 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: Did Spike Jones do that movie? And he did The 383 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 1: Beast two Boys? Documents were talking about but what did 384 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: he do? Because he there's the documentary what does Spike 385 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 1: Jones do? By I take it and watch it in 386 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: the theater, I think he's like doing all the stage 387 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: direction because they like call him out like during the 388 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: later on, Okay, I must not the sound effects and 389 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 1: like running the slides and all that he put all 390 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: that together. Okay, I was gonna say a stage direction, 391 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: they just stand up pictures. Um. So Her didn't make it. 392 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: But this movie that gave me the same kind of 393 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: feeling did which was Eternal Sunshine in the Spotless Mind, 394 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: which is the Gym Carey movie. And I'm not a 395 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: big Jim Carrey guy, but I'll watch that movie and 396 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: it was would you eliminate all of these toxic, sad, 397 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: unworthy feelings that you have accumulated? And with him it 398 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: was her, um if you could, like would you or 399 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 1: would you keep them all and grow from it? And 400 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,719 Speaker 1: it didn't hit me on a romantic level, but him 401 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: me on a personal level was like, dang, I've been 402 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,719 Speaker 1: too much crap in my life. Would I get rid 403 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 1: of that? Or would I am not? And you know, 404 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: I thought about it for long, but because that movie 405 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: made me think about it for a long time, I 406 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: still think about that based on the movie. I may 407 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: I may have only sent movie once or twice, but 408 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: I'm just going from the lasting feeling that it gave 409 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: me when it finished. So number two is Eternal Sunshine 410 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: of the Spotless Mind. Because of I still feel a 411 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: scar from that movie, like it cut me in the 412 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: right way and the scar is still there. Have you 413 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: ever seen it? Yeah, I see, I've probably watched it 414 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: pretty recently, like maybe within the year really, and it's 415 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: I think it still holds up, and I remember it 416 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 1: kind of hit me like that to that first line 417 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 1: where he's like he's sitting on that train and that 418 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: line he says about he falls in love with like 419 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: any girl. I was like, dangn that kinda hit me 420 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: pretty hard. See, I don't remember anything about it because 421 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: I've only seen it once or twice, and I don't 422 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: know if it holds up. Almost don't want to watch 423 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: it again because and in the same way i'd never 424 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: listened to my favorite interviews on on the radio show. 425 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: I don't want to remember it differently than I felt it, 426 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 1: especially if I felt something that a feeling that was 427 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: so distinct, like I can remember how I felt when 428 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: the movie finished. So there are interviews in my career 429 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: h Kevin Smith early John Mayer interviewed that we did 430 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: my first timeime in too Garth Brooks. I won't go 431 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: back and look at or listen to it anyway because 432 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to look at and go, oh, that's 433 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: kind of stupid. I shouldn't have said that, or the 434 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: same way with probably this movie unless someone just wanted 435 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: to see it. I don't want to go back and 436 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: go like this Mayvie kind of all his lame now, 437 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: like it didn't hold up that well. So that's why 438 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: I seeing a movie over and over doesn't have to 439 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: fall into my category of my favorite movies. Now I'm 440 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 1: pricing old school thirty times. You know, if we look 441 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: at movies and go old school hitch comedies, you can 442 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: kind of watch over and over. Yeah, they hold up 443 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: a little bit better. Yeah, that's number two. Do you 444 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: have any questions about that one? I think I want 445 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: to get to number one. Well, and I'm just not 446 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: a Jim Carrey fan and a hater, but my top 447 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: two movies or Jim Carrey movies, yeah, listen, you like 448 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 1: the series Team Carey though, right, because you know what 449 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: would be in the top five if I were doing 450 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: top five, would for sure be The Truman Show. It's 451 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: not number one, but it's in that honorable mention because 452 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: it's that you have to think outside of what you know, 453 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: and then that's when it gets scary for people. Gets 454 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: scary for me to like, I know what I can 455 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: see in touch and been taught, but what if there's 456 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: something that we have no idea. That's what Truman show is. 457 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: He hasn't He's part of a freaking he was born. 458 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: They're watching him the whole time. He has no idea, 459 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: finally figures out, takes a big risk, could die, you know. 460 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: And if you don't look at it as here's a 461 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: guy on a boat going at the end going like, 462 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: here's the guy that's risking everything to go find out 463 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: what's true, people have to do that on a much 464 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: larger level a lot of times, leaving their cultures, leaving 465 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: and so that movie hit me pretty hard. That would 466 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: be in top five, But my number one have three 467 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: Jim and I don't. I don't know. I'm not an 468 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: anti Jim Carey guy. I just wouldn't think I'm a 469 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: huge Jim Carey guy. I guess I'm a huge serious 470 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: Jim Carey guy because Jim Carey playing Andy Kaufman and 471 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: Man on the Moon is my favorite movie ever for 472 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 1: a couple of reasons. One, I love Andy Kaufman. Not 473 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: the funniest of performers. Andy Kaufman never set out to 474 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: be the funniest. But Andy Kaufman, the performer who died 475 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 1: when I was zero or one, wanted to be someone 476 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 1: who was noticed, wanted to be someone who was always 477 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: pushing it, even if people didn't like it. And I 478 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: love I didn't always love the bits that Andy Kaufman 479 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: did something I thought were lame, but I think that 480 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: that's pretty amazing that he would go out and try 481 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: stuff that could bomb their face off and be like, 482 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: well that didn't work, what else can I do to see? 483 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 1: I admired that about him as a performer, um, and 484 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,199 Speaker 1: all the stuffs highlighted that were worked really great for him, 485 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: the wrestling, um, the having an opening act in front 486 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: of him that was actually him, and then later got um, 487 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: you know, he got one of his buddies in it too, 488 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 1: his manager. So I loved Andy Kaufman. Now to make 489 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 1: that story because I was already such a big Andy 490 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: Kaufman fan, but like history, it would be like somebody 491 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: now loving like a musician now who's thirty years old, 492 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: loving Johnny Cash and like watching Johnny Cash documentaries. That 493 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: that's what it was like with Andy Kauf Because knew 494 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: I wanted to be a performer. I knew I was 495 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: never gonna be a straight stand up because that was 496 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: not the skill that I decided to pursue early on. 497 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm not particularly talented at riding jokes with punch lines. 498 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: I think you're a far better writer of jokes than 499 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: I am. But I knew I could go out, get 500 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: on a stage and perform doing whatever I needed to do. 501 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: Some stand up sure, some music sure, some improv absolutely, 502 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: and some even the jokes that I would do in 503 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:15,719 Speaker 1: my early attempts when I was touring a comedy. I 504 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: just love to make the audience feel awkward. I just 505 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: I love that feeling of like the air being sucked 506 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: out of the room. And I had a couple of 507 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: jokes that I would do. I don't do them any 508 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: more because I wrote them in my last book, But 509 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 1: it was, by the way, the set that the setup is. 510 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: You know, on Facebook, you get that thing friends you 511 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: may know, and it's like all these people that aren't 512 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 1: your friends right now, but it goes friends you may know, 513 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: all the pictures and I did just a little bit 514 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: about Facebook, and I was like, you know, I just 515 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: got one of those friends you may know notifications and 516 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: it was my my biological father. Um, the weird thing 517 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: is I don't. And then I would just sit and 518 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: it was really uncomfortable. Sometimes thatis pep, really unconfortable. Some 519 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: people would laugh and I'd be like, this is a 520 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: messed up audience. Sometimes you hear laughing. Some people wouldn't 521 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: get it. It It would just be weird. But I would 522 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: just sit so long to let people figure it out. 523 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: And then you'd hear some booze or or come on 524 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: or groans, and I'm like, all right, sorry, sorry, sorry, 525 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: And I would follow that up with the joke, Fine, 526 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: we'll do something. We'll break it up here. I'll do 527 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 1: an impression, not the best of impressions, but I'm now 528 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: going to do an impression of my biological father. And 529 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: I'd walk off the stage and leave and I would 530 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: just sit on the side. You see me, do it something, 531 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: go sit out there longer than others, and the crowd 532 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: didn't know how to react. And I love and I 533 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: would love it when it would be the most uncomfortable. 534 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: And but that's one one what Andy Kaufman did, and 535 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: you know, he's kind of what inspired me even in 536 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: my earliest radio days, early to mid one we would 537 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: do really uncomfortable stuff on the air, meaning we wanted 538 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: to see reactions people live. Um. But so I'm a 539 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: big Andy Kaufman fan for for someone to go into 540 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 1: that movie and nail it like Jim Carrey did with 541 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:00,959 Speaker 1: a bit of his own spin. But I don't think 542 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: he put that much on it because I think he 543 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: also was a massive Andy Kaufman fan, so he wanted 544 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: to keep it as true as possible. For the movie 545 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: to be good and written, well, big big deal for 546 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: Jim Carrey to nail it and for it just to 547 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: come together. I thought, Who's I was nervous watching it, Um, 548 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: this was, But it was so good. It meant everything 549 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: that I wanted was somebody already loved It, was a 550 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 1: great story about him, and it was an actor nailing it. 551 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: It was the three things you want. So that's my 552 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: favorite movie because of that. I don't know that if 553 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: Andy Kaufman wasn't someone that I admired and Jim Carey 554 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: didn't nail him, that I would feel that way about 555 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: that movie. But I went into it going love it. 556 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: I loved Howard Sterns private parts. I don't know if 557 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: I never had known Howard Stern wasn't He wasn't a 558 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: big influence on how I do radio that I would 559 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: have felt the way about them. I don't know. Maybe 560 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: it gets people love it, but it's just people who 561 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: love Stern. I love Howard Stern. But that's it. It's 562 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: those three. It's number three Bill and Ted's That's a 563 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: venture because of the funny and the learning. Number two 564 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: Jim Carrey an eternal Sunshine at the Spotless Mind because 565 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 1: it cut me and there's still a scar that I 566 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: can see today. And then number one is Andy Coffin 567 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: Man on the Moon, Jim carrying and that because he 568 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: nailed the character. I love Andy Coffin. It was a 569 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: well written story, and then it just had a perfect ending, 570 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: a perfect ending for that movie and that story. And 571 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: that's it what I want to get into now. I 572 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: think the arguments that we've had some arguments, but I 573 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: think this one is the biggest one we've ever had. 574 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: And I want to get into it. About the Marvel universe. 575 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 1: Cool with that? Yeah, Now, I'm not a Marvel expert 576 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: by any means. I don't know that I haven't seen 577 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: all the movies. I've seen all the Avengers and not 578 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: I didn't rush to see them, So you'll win this 579 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: argument because I don't have enough history. I don't know 580 00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: the fact I haven't seen I've pricing half of them. Okay, 581 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: so go hit me with it. I'm going into this though, Okay, 582 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: a little underweight. All right. Well, the thing is, I've 583 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 1: had this idea of an episode that I'm gonna do 584 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: of retelling. Instead of remaking a movie and rebooting a movie, 585 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: you do a movie from a different perspective. So I 586 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: was thinking of like if you took the Avengers and 587 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 1: switched it as Danos is the good guy and it's 588 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: the Avengers trying to stop his plan. But you have 589 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: a theory that Daniels is actually a good guy in 590 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: the Avengers movies. Well, and I said this as soon 591 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: as I finished the movie. I was like, wow, I maan, 592 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: if you just tell the story on the other side 593 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: of it, Danos is not the bad guy. And people 594 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: acted like I had kicked their puppy man because in 595 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: the version we see Thanos is the bad guy. Because 596 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: we have a relationship with all the quote unquote good characters, 597 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: we know them, we know they're back stories. Again, you 598 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: can correct me on facts because I've only seen it once, 599 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: but I just think I remember Danos went and destroyed 600 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: a bunch of planets, right, Yes, killed lots of people 601 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: to collect stones, because once you have enough stones, you 602 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: then have control of the universe everything. Yet, and the 603 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: reason he wanted control of everything is because back on 604 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: his planet, he saw it die because it was overpopulated. 605 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: There weren't enough resources for everyone, and so not only 606 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: did see everybody die, he saw everybody struggling for a 607 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: long time until they died, and so he goes, I 608 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: don't want that to happen to the world. So he 609 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: had to make the decision of I would rather collect 610 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: all the stones and eliminate half the people and those 611 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: people have a real shot to thrive and keep the 612 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: planets going, then to not and let everything die by itself. Anyway. Now, 613 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: I don't know that he was right or wrong ideologically, 614 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: he has a point. Depending who's telling the story and 615 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: what their situation is, it could be right from either side. 616 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: I don't think Dane's was just a pure villain. And 617 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: I think if you saw him growing up, and I 618 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: had to make those decisions because again, the core of 619 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: his decision was he saw people dying and didn't want 620 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: that to happen everybody else. That's it, there's no it 621 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: gets no core more core than that he saw death 622 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: and destruction and didn't want that for everybody. I see, 623 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: I could see that, But I think there's a point 624 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: where he kind of turns and he ends up doing 625 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: it at a spite rather than him trying to save people. 626 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: And I think it's more becomes that he wants to 627 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: have all the power. And there's really nothing saying that 628 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: by eliminating half the population that everything will be able 629 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: to sustain itself. But there is saying that if you 630 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: don't eliminate and there isn't overpopulation, that nothing will sustain itself. 631 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: But what if he took that power and doubled resources. 632 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: There's something else like that and didn't forgot created a 633 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: new planet. So I don't remember the whole story here, 634 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: And what all I'm saying is at the Cora fan 635 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: of that's not a villain. He only did all of 636 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: that because he saw death, sadness, poverty, That's why did everything. Now, 637 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: he may have made some wrong decisions amongst the way 638 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: it could have been. We all are polluted with different 639 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: I've been guilty of it too, killing people. But you know, 640 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: as you grow, you have good things that come to 641 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: do and bad and you're trying to figure it out 642 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: as you go. My only thing one And I may 643 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: not be right on all those facts. I haven't seen 644 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: the movie, but once is it Danos, if shown from 645 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: a different director writer, he's a good guy. But that's 646 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: just the killing part that messes with people. But if 647 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: you don't think all these countries are killing people for 648 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: their own causes anyway, every country, they're all killing people 649 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: for their own causes. Because then then what he wanted 650 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: to do an endgame was I don't you're now you're 651 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: out of it. I don't even know. I'm not even 652 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: talking about the storylines. All I remember is going dan 653 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: it was a getting a bad rap. He was only 654 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: doing all of this so everyone didn't suffer. He made 655 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: the tough decision in his heart. He'd rather see some 656 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: people die so some people could thrive rather than everybody 657 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: dies slowly. So right or wrong, I'm not on team Thanos, 658 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: but I definitely didn't think he deserved to be the 659 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: super villain that he was. When the movie was out, 660 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: and all I said, and it's It's funny this is 661 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: last because it gets brought to me all the time. 662 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: All I said was, I don't think he's the villain 663 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: if you tell that story from his side. But throughout history, 664 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: you can tell the story from almost any one side 665 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: that's the villain, and they're the good guy. No villain 666 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: ever thinks they're the bad guy by the way. They're 667 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: all finding for for a just cause in their mind. 668 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 1: So and the good guys are the ones that win, 669 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: by the way, throughout history, the stories that we know 670 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: of the good guys, we won. That's why we that's 671 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: why we're here. That's why I think that Thanos is 672 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: it was probably a bad dude by the end of it, 673 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: But I don't think he was. I don't think he 674 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,239 Speaker 1: was a villain for his cause. That's right. You've been 675 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: You've been changed a little bit by bit, all right. 676 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 1: The last thing I want to get into is I 677 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: did an episode a couple of weeks ago about one 678 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: Hit Wonder actors, and you actually submitted yourself for band Slam? 679 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: Was that on Instagram? On Instagram story? So people may 680 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: not know, but back in two thousand nine you were 681 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: in a movie called Band Slam, So I had five 682 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: questions for you about that movie that was two thousand nine. 683 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: I had that dopey hair at twenty nine years old. 684 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: Holy crap. Wow, okay, go ahead, alright. So Band Slam 685 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: two thousand nine. Did you audition for it? Yeah? I did. Man, 686 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: I haven't thought about this since that. Wow, I did 687 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: audition for that movie. What was that? Like? Someone called 688 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: me and said, Hey, they're doing this movie. They're shooting 689 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: it in Austin because they can use the University of 690 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: Texas Theater and Music um and it was cheaper to 691 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: shoot movies and Texas at the time. Now, Louisiana's a 692 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: big hub for movies, but it was until recently. It's 693 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: all about taxes, right, That's why a lot of stuff 694 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: is in Canada. Yeah, you can shoot it for less. 695 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: So they're like, they're shooting this, but they have a 696 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: role of a guy named Gordy which was my name 697 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: at first, who hosts a big competition. You have some lines. 698 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: You're it's like at the time it was like nineteen lines. 699 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: He got cut way down in line I think by 700 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: the time it was over, but you have like nineteen lines. 701 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: But they need someone who's like, you know, in his 702 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: twenties and it's cool, and I was like, well, it's 703 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: not that. So I went and there was a long 704 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: line wrapped around the building of guys that were good looking, 705 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: like lots of hair jail, lots of the actor type. Uh. 706 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 1: And so I went to a pair of jeans and 707 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: a white T shirt because I didn't know what I 708 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: was doing. I remember thinking I was gonna be the 709 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: only one the audition because I thought they just hadn't 710 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:31,919 Speaker 1: ready for me. I was like, oh, I gotta bude 711 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: to do this movie. It was a bunch of people. 712 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: So I went into this room. This is just a 713 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: room like a bedroom at a house, and there were 714 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,760 Speaker 1: two people sitting behind the long table and they're like, okay, 715 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: Ridge the lines. I didn't memorize mine. I guess most 716 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: people did because I'm a script in my hand. And 717 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,439 Speaker 1: so I was like, oh, can you believe they're gonna 718 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 1: play the show? You're this one man, They're never gonna 719 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 1: and they were like all right, thank you very much, 720 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: and I left. That was it. I never thought I 721 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: was gonna get a call back because it didn't go 722 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: well in the him. I thought because they showed me 723 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,919 Speaker 1: no emotion, nothing. It was like, wow, that was great. 724 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,840 Speaker 1: They didn't say it was great, it was good. It 725 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: was like, all right, thanks a lot. Now walking I 726 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: was like, dang, almost really sucked. And they called me 727 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 1: back and they said, hey, you're one of the best ones. 728 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: Come back again. I went back again. I was the 729 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: only person there are the second time, I think they 730 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: were they just had to spread out a little more 731 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: and I gotta call and said, hey, you're in, and 732 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: you're considered because you have this many many lines. You're 733 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: a principal actor. And so I had my own trailer. 734 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: I had. I was on the biggest level with the 735 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: lowest amount of work and money, like I was if 736 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: in the A lest part of that movie. It was 737 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: Vanessa Hudgens, it was Leasta Coudrophebe from Friends. It was 738 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: Scott who was in Friday Night Lights, and I forgot 739 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: Scott's last name. Um. So there were these actors and 740 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: of the A principles, I was the bottom of the barrel, 741 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: but I was higher than all the extras and midst 742 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: So I had my own umbrella carrier to make sure 743 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: my makeup when sweat ahead they got on my clothes. 744 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: I had a trailer. It was crazy. I got paid 745 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: three or four thousand dollars a day for about seven days. 746 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 1: I remember making about twenty dollars on that movie for 747 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: a week's work. That's pretty good. Yeah, it wasn't what 748 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: they made obvious, but that's what I got. You still 749 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,479 Speaker 1: get checks from it, yeah, but it's like since, yeah, 750 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 1: three cents, twelve cents. Sometimes I'll get a dollar tin 751 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: or something like that. So that that was that movie. 752 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 1: How many days did you actually film? A week? I 753 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: mean it was a week straight or the thing that 754 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: stunk was again I was a principal, so they kept 755 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: us all together. We ate together, and again I didn't 756 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:39,879 Speaker 1: know anybody because I wasn't a real actor. I didn't 757 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 1: know any of them, so they didn't really let me 758 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: in their cool group and they would all pretty much 759 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: all the prints actually, like all right, we're gonna go 760 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: play Superintendo and we're gonna have this party. I was 761 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: never invited anything, um because they didn't know me. And 762 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: I also had the radio show, So I did the 763 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: radio show all morning and go straight over so some 764 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: of the bonding stuff it was late at night I 765 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 1: couldn't go to anyway. But I never really got invited 766 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 1: to do anything. Did you end a meeting of the 767 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: co stars? Yeah, at least Couch was really nice. We 768 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: sat in a makeup chair beside each other for like 769 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: an hour one day and she was super nice. It 770 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 1: was really going. She played the mom on that that movie. Um, 771 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: it's only the only time we spoke, but yeah, I 772 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 1: met her. Best of Hudgens was okay. Um the Scott 773 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: I wish I was last name, but he was. He 774 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: was really nice. Are you surprised that it has rating 775 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: on Ryan to make it wow? Um? I'm I was 776 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: surprised that it when it came out that it didn't 777 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: make more at the box office because I don't think 778 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: it did well. I made five million opening weekend and 779 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,399 Speaker 1: twelve million throughout the run while it was up. Okay, 780 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,280 Speaker 1: so you're talking about me. We didn't do that well financially, 781 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:46,399 Speaker 1: but it kept getting shown everywhere. Every time I would see, uh, 782 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: like a weekend of rare weird movies on Disney, and 783 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: it would be like showing movies, it would pop up. 784 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: That's why I first I saw it on TV and 785 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 1: I would get checks on it would air on TBS. 786 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: It would for some reason. It still are now occasionally 787 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 1: because people keep send me pictures of me with my 788 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: big curly hair. Yeah. Sometimes movie channels will pick it 789 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: back up and put it into rotation, which sometimes people say, 790 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,959 Speaker 1: like these movies bomb, but they end up making money 791 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: back when they get put into syndication and stuff like that. Well, 792 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 1: this was no big financial risk for the movie makers. 793 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: I mean, for making a movie was expensive, I'm sure, 794 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:21,919 Speaker 1: but I'm saying it wasn't like a hundred million dollar movie. 795 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 1: It wasn't water World. Yeah. Um, so yeah, that was fun. 796 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: I forgot it has been a long time, and then, um, 797 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,720 Speaker 1: would you ever do another movie? It's just the time 798 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: you have to be on set and shoot things ten eleven, 799 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: twelve times. I'm sure it'll be tough to do it 800 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 1: right now, but I could if it was the right role. 801 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 1: You get offered stuff, some small stuff, but I don't 802 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: put myself in the mix for it either. You mostly 803 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: have to audition. Even some of the big actors have 804 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: to go on auditions for stuff, and so I don't 805 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: get offered stuff. No, as far as movies that people 806 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: would see, but I do get offered to go audition 807 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: for stuff, and I just never want to go do it. 808 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 1: The only things I could offered her like super Indica 809 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 1: type stuff. Can they just want anyone to be in 810 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: it will promote it, So that's like, hey, let's get 811 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: buy a real because if he talks about it, people 812 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 1: might see it. So the answer is no, not really. 813 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: All Right, Well there we go. I'm big movie star, 814 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: movie star, first first actor. Nice. All right, Well, thanks 815 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: for hanging out may all right, we'll talk to you 816 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: later
