1
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: So hello, slow back. It's like, what did you think

2
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: of the song? And it was a good song. Is great,

3
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:16,599
Speaker 1: the song is really good. But it shouldn't be fight

4
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: like a brave guy. It should just be fight like

5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 1: a brave.

6
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 2: And then you you figure out that it's guy.

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 3: Hi, Hi, what up?

8
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 4: What up? What up?

9
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: What up?

10
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 2: Welcome to Hollywood Handbook and Insider's Guide to kicking button,

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: dropping names, and the red carpet line back hallways of

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,520
Speaker 2: this industry we call showbiz. We want to get something

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: out of the way.

14
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 3: Uh, we've been staying away from it a little bit.

15
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 2: Yes, but you know, we just want to weigh in

16
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 2: and just like get it over with because people have

17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: sort of been asking us.

18
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: Sean and I are big sports heads.

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone knows that about us, and sometimes that can

20
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 2: get us in trouble. When somebody is doing a sport

21
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 2: that we like in this town especially, we'll go to

22
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 2: them and say, like, we're big fans of the sports

23
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 2: that you do and you own the basketball.

24
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: Team, and that we give them encouragement.

25
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 2: Yes, and Donald Sterling was someone who we had had

26
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 2: those kind of interactions with as mutual fans.

27
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 3: We had a lot in common with him. And so, yes,

28
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 3: we had interactions as fans, and we sort of sat

29
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 3: pretty close to where he sits, and we also keep

30
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 3: our planes in the same playing house. And he had

31
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 3: come over to my dad's house before and hung out

32
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 3: in my basement apartment and I had gone to his

33
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 3: place before.

34
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: So and people say like it's like, oh, you guys

35
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 2: were best friends, and it's insane.

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 3: Please you know how many best friends I have. He's

37
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: my best friend and best This is a deported clarification.

38
00:01:55,320 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 3: Best man is not the same thing as best friends. No,

39
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,919
Speaker 3: he was best man only at me and Stephie's because

40
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 3: my brother died.

41
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: And that's for you have just an organizational ability.

42
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 2: He's good at scheduling and planning tricks planning.

43
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the party type events. And also my brother

44
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: dying was an accident, and I'm sick of getting the

45
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 3: emails about that where it's like, you know, the two

46
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 3: of us were in Hawaii together. He had been sleeping

47
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 3: with my girlfriend and then he fell off a cliff

48
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 3: and we were on a hike together, and I wish

49
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 3: that didn't happen. I mean, I just told you he

50
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: would have been the best man if not so didn't

51
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 3: you hear didn't you hear me say I said it.

52
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: That's irrefutable proof twenty seconds ago.

53
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, so if you were actually listening, you'd know that

54
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: that was an accident. What happened. And I wish he

55
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: wasn't such a klutz.

56
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 2: And let's get this out of the way, Like we

57
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: want to say unequivocally, we do not think that the

58
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: things he said were good at all.

59
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 3: Donald Sterling, not my brother.

60
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: Yes, Donald Sterling, we thought said some stuff that was

61
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: absolutely not at all good.

62
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 3: Ugly yes, ugly, st ugly words. I hated what he said.

63
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: Yes, But.

64
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 2: At the same time, what happens you think about the

65
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 2: slippery slope when things that people say in their home

66
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: in privacy that are that they don't know that there's

67
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 2: a tape on, Like, where's the line? So he said

68
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: those things that were absolutely bad, for sure.

69
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 3: Awful things, awful, hated hearing them and hated knowing that

70
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 3: they were said.

71
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 2: He said those things to his friend in privacy. Where's

72
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: the line between that and maybe some conversation where he's

73
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: talking to his other friends and they're doing good. The

74
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: impressions of what black people sound like when they're mad,

75
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: like say, theoretically that.

76
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 3: Or the owner of a Korean nail salon. Sure, you know,

77
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 3: just something just you know there he's going, you know

78
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 3: why you know want long nail? Uh, that's why you

79
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: know I have boyfriend because you know I have long nail.

80
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 3: You know something like that?

81
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: Well, and would that be bad?

82
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: That seems like in that conversation the friends would just

83
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: be doing it as a joke and they just thought

84
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 2: it was like everyone was just having fun.

85
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 3: And we're assuming that it's based on something real. It

86
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 3: really is. How you know that nail salon owner was

87
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 3: talking when he saw them?

88
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 2: Yes?

89
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: Is it now that?

90
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 2: Can you have your property sees from you under the

91
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 2: constitution for describing things that are real that happened?

92
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: Is that? Is that something we can do now? I

93
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: don't know.

94
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 3: These are just questions and to educate you guys. It's

95
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 3: hard to think about because we're talking about a basketball team.

96
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 3: But let's say it's not a basketball team. Let's say

97
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 3: it's just a Hamburger sandwich. Yes, so it's a Hamburger

98
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 3: style sandwich. Yes that he owns so, or that I

99
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 3: own I'm owning this Hamburger style sandwich and I can't

100
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 3: wait to eat it during my lunchtime, and at the

101
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 3: same time, I get a call from my black Mexican lover.

102
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: Who I I have.

103
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: Requested. I have requested that he or she record some

104
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 3: of my thoughts because I've been getting pretty forgetful lately.

105
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 3: And in the course of that conversation, we have an

106
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 3: exchange where I say something that a lot of people

107
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 3: don't agree with. Maybe it's that.

108
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 2: Who can swim, maybe who can't swim it doesn't matter.

109
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: Or even just that Shakespeare didn't write his own plays,

110
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 3: because I.

111
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: Think it was that Earl.

112
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 3: I think it was the Earl of Oxford, the seventeenth

113
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 3: Earl of Oxford, who wrote most of his plays. Or

114
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: maybe Queen maybe Queen Elizabeth, it doesn't matter sexist to that. Well,

115
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: if you see anonymous you'd know. And so I'm saying that,

116
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 3: and then you don't agree with it? Now can you

117
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 3: come and take my Hamburger sandwich and eat it in

118
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 3: front of me?

119
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: And is that you?

120
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 2: Just think about what the founding fathers intended when they

121
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: drew up those great documents, And now were they thinking

122
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 2: that sometimes you can say certain words that you can

123
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 2: have your sandwich just resold to somebody else without you

124
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 2: signing off on it.

125
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 3: Oh, and people are gonna act like it's like some

126
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 3: favor they're doing me because they're gonna pay me twice

127
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 3: what I paid for my Hamburger sandwich. Well that's not

128
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:34,679
Speaker 3: the point.

129
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: I bought it because I want to eat it, or

130
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 2: even a hundred times as much.

131
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: Does that matter what the number is.

132
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 3: The money is not important in that case, because you're hungry.

133
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 3: I'm hungry, and you love people need food. I love

134
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 3: Hamburger sandwich. So in that way it seems very unfair.

135
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 3: And at what point then do we transfer into and Hayes,

136
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: you brought this up thought crime? Yes, And can I

137
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 3: not think that maybe someone you know wasn't swimming good?

138
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 3: Or can I not think that maybe somebody didn't write

139
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 3: something they other people think they wrote.

140
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: M h is it if you read Animal Farm and

141
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 2: you look at how they did to the pigs and

142
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 2: how the pigs went against society with disruptive ideas, and

143
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 2: so they said the pigs couldn't be the boss anymore.

144
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: If you just read a book every once in a

145
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: while and you would see that's actually what is today.

146
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: And whoever is the one who says that that you

147
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 3: can't be a boss. Then they become the new boss,

148
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 3: and they become just as bad as pigs, because the

149
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 3: pigs became like the people. And I imagine that the

150
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 3: horse or whatever was going to become like the pig,

151
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 3: except I guess he got killed put to the glue factory.

152
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 2: So that was a very scary part. Yes, and I

153
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 2: skip it when him all up, he didn't do anything wrong.

154
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: Black in a way, is he sort of like I

155
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 2: don't want to say he's the same as Donald Sterling,

156
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 2: but is the book a certain kind of story where

157
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: it represents real and to.

158
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 3: Clear up some of the Donald Sterling stuff that we've

159
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 3: been getting hammered on. Having someone be the godfather of

160
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: your children, it's not the same.

161
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that that's your best friend.

162
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 2: That's an organizational issue too, scheduling, just being good with excel,

163
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 2: Like that's why you have someone be the godfather or.

164
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 3: Well it's just their name, you know, is just easy

165
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 3: to spell or whatever a lot of times, and so

166
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 3: you just put it on the form and whatever.

167
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: He's accessible.

168
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 2: He always answers the phone, and that's what that's the

169
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 2: kind of thing that you need.

170
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 3: And if you look in the mirror. At some point, listener,

171
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 3: you are going to be getting older and you are

172
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 3: going to want to have your black Mexican lover recording

173
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 3: some of the things that you say, because unfortunately we

174
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 3: all do start to lose a step.

175
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 2: And now apparently that's against the rules, and that's not

176
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 2: something you can do anymore.

177
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 3: Think about things that you've said before about maybe not

178
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 3: liking a particularly popular song and then all of a

179
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 3: sudden that song everyone does like it.

180
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the internet outrage machine is unleashed on you.

181
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 3: Imagine they put that out there.

182
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 2: Just for you being yourself, and well, I don't know,

183
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: maybe you the Constitution and see maybe you maybe you.

184
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 3: Walked out a Grand Budapest hotel and you said, oh, yuck,

185
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 3: I didn't like rape fines in that m Well, everyone

186
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 3: did like him.

187
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 2: So and you guys thought, and we should make clear

188
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 2: that is absolutely just an example. I thought he was

189
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 2: so good, so winning, or such a winning person.

190
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 3: Revelation, so charming. And I will say again to this

191
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 3: is an example of a horrible thing. You could say,

192
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 3: like some of the disgusting things Donald.

193
00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 2: Said, Yes, such horrible things the US and nasty and

194
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: we hate it.

195
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 3: But if you said something, you know, maybe not equally bad,

196
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 3: but in the same tier, like criticizing Ray Fines and

197
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 3: someone played that then I.

198
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: Could just come and take your hamburger sandwich.

199
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 2: Yes, and he's not as much of our friend anymore.

200
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 2: And like us, us having this conversation is this is

201
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 2: as honest as we have been with him. And we

202
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 2: said Donald that you said it was what you said,

203
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 2: forget it.

204
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 3: No thanks, And I know you said it in private,

205
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 3: but if you said it in front of me, you

206
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: would have been getting a punch in the nose.

207
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: No dice, no dice, Donald, And no, it's not allowed.

208
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 3: And you'd be out on your butt. And you're lucky

209
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 3: you didn't say it in front of me because you

210
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 3: wouldn't have been invited to this pool party. And so

211
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 3: that's the kind of stand that we've taken. We have

212
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 3: a great guest today speaking of the legends. Dave Thomas

Speaker 3: you think you're.

224
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 4: Welcome to my home.

225
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,600

226
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 3: It falling all the way down, and she died.

229
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: button dropping names in the red carpet lineback hallways of

230
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: this industry we call showbiz. We have a really, really

231
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: great guest today. It's it's an honor to have him.

232
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 2: Sean and I have been doing this for a long time.

233
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 2: TV movies, comedy, drama, all these things, and sometimes we

234
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 2: like to bring someone who's been doing it as long

235
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 2: as we have that can we can sort of share

236
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 2: stories from back in the day. Dave Thomas is here.

237
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 4: How are you guys. It's great to be here.

238
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: It's so nice alive.

239
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, good, I'll say, lucky of stuff we've been through.

240
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 2: And for some people, I feel like it's not good

241
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 2: for them to be alive because maybe they haven't done

242
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: some of the things that we've done.

243
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: They don't deserve to be alive.

244
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 3: That's a great way to think, very well, put, they

245
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 3: haven't earned it.

246
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: It's true, it's true. What are you up to these days?

247
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 4: I'm in semi rehirement and but meaning I'm doing our television.

248
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, that's what it is.

249
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 4: Is that it is. It's very very nice. It's it's

250
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 4: like a it's like a paid vacation. It's old Hollywood, man.

251
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 4: It's the last of the of those our studio three

252
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 4: million inf dinosaur shews and then they're gone, and I

253
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 4: want to get my share of that loot before they're gone.

254
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 3: And how much of your motivation is just grabbing the

255
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 3: cash before you take off out the door?

256
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 4: Ninety eight.

257
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 1: And that and that two percent.

258
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 4: Art, that's altruism and art. It's why each.

259
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 2: Eachrum one percent for altruism for art.

260
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 4: And it was a bigger percentage earlier when I started out.

261
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 4: But you got to let it go because it's not

262
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 4: about altruism, it's not about art.

263
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 3: What a great lesson that ultimately you do have to

264
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 3: let it go. And the sooner the better. Yeah, that

265
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 3: no one's in this for really anything other than you

266
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 3: can make a fuck ton of hot cash, and something

267
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 3: about just having a big sweet pile of dose if

268
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 3: stacked up in your bank account, and being able to

269
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 3: buy stuff, but also being able to buy people.

270
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 4: Yes, and girls and girls who wouldn't look at you

271
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 4: if you weren't rich or on TV or in the movies.

272
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 4: Let's be honest.

273
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, we know the deal, Dave. We know you from

274
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: sort of the old.

275
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: The Canadian comedy scene when we were up there sort

276
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 2: of doing it with you and Gordy Howe, Yeah, who

277
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 2: I still say, the funniest, the most naturally talented comedian

278
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: I've ever encountered, and there's never been anyone like him.

279
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 3: And he chose to go a different route a little bit.

280
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 4: He did some hockey, which was I don't know, I

281
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 4: thought it was crazy.

282
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I wish he hadn't only because for selfish reasons, Yes,

283
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 3: because I would have loved to be cracking up.

284
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: We missed out, We missed out on a great talent.

285
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: And he is alive, but it is sort of like

286
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 2: he's dead just because he isn't doing industry stuff.

287
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 4: He was the only guy who could do Gary Cooper

288
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 4: back then, Hm, no one else could do and impress

289
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 4: to Gary Cooper. But Gordy he fucking nailed it, man, Yes,

290
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 4: like just cat it.

291
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 3: He like in habited him, Yes he would, way he was.

292
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 3: His face changed. You do those scenes from the fountain Head,

293
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 3: you know, yes, and his face would change and you'd

294
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 3: go like, where'd Gordy go? And how'd Gary get in here?

295
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: It's right?

296
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 2: And when he would say like, it's high noon Podner

297
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 2: and you just laugh, you laugh and laugh.

298
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: And do you still talk to Gordy?

299
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah. He does a lot of celebrity golf fundraisers

300
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 4: and things like this now.

301
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 3: And you show up to heckle him.

302
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 4: I do, I do, and remind him that he made

303
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 4: a big mistake. And he can write a book about

304
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 4: hockey if he wants, but his real book should have

305
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 4: been about this business.

306
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 3: It's so funny that he does a celebrity golf tournament

307
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 3: when really we're the real celebrities and he's just a

308
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 3: fucking athlete, which is so easy.

309
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 4: We should do a celebrity celebrity tournament. Well, we don't

310
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 4: actually raise money for anyone, and we don't actually do

311
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 4: anything except sit around and talk about ourselves, because I

312
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 4: can't think of anything more interesting.

313
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: Yes, but not for free.

314
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 4: No, well people would pay for that, of course, But

315
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 4: I don't want to give this to a bunch of

316

Speaker 3: treat someone in the room like they are of substance

321

348
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 3: to go a different way, because he could have been

349
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 3: one of the greats.

350
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,480

362
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,760

363
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 4: people in the Friars Club were old and geriatric and

364
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 4: it was disgusting. I had to get out of there

365
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 4: because that that is death. The two things you don't

366
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,159

00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 4: click in this business. Because I knew that this business

475
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 4: is about relationships, not about talent, and I made relationships

476
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 4: with all these people and then next thing, you know,

477
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 4: I want of them, Thank you very much. I'm cashing

478
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 4: a check. I'm sitting at sorties. I'm doing the thing.

479
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: You know, fantastic and Sorities you also had destroyed.

480
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had a picture of me, you know, Hirshfield,

481
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 4: Hirschfeld art nice crude looking, didn't do me justice, skeedch

482
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 4: my face up.

483
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 3: On the wall.

484
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 4: And when my picture went down, what do you think

485
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 4: I'm going to take that line down?

486
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 1: In the restaurant.

487
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 4: I knew people who could shut that thing down. And

488
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 4: what was the same people as the Friars Club. Either

489
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 4: it's I got more than one arrow in my quiver,

490
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 4: so to speak, if I can use that metaphor.

491
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 1: It always seemed to use it here.

492
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, you benefited on SETV because you were alphabetically last yeah,

493
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 2: in your your last name, so the credits would always

494
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 2: build so that you were like the Big Show.

495
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 4: And you know what clinched it. I They said we

496
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 4: got to get an announcement for the show. I said,

497
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 4: I'll do it for nothing. Wow, That way I can

498
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 4: push my own name.

499
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: See, yeah, really blow it out.

500
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 3: What a great tip at home, if you're thinking of

501
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 3: coming to Hollywood, maybe change your name so that it

502
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 3: has a Z in it or something like that at

503
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 3: the beginning, even yeah, at the Yeah, put it at

504
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 3: the top, because that's why, you know, we all know

505
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 3: who Hans Zimmer is, but nobody's ever heard of Hans

506
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 3: Abrams because he Abel, Yeah, Alan Abel, or Alan Arkin

507
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 3: or even Alan Arkin or even Alan Aldo. You know,

508
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 3: none of those guys are going to the sea.

509
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 4: It's Jim Cromwell. Nobody knows him.

510
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 3: Nobody knows Cromwell.

511
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: We had him on the show.

512
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 4: You did what right after Babe the Big Movie?

513
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 1: Yep, shortly after Babe, and he was very tired from it.

514
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 3: He finished Babe, he was exhausted.

515
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 4: He's a giant, you know, he had his tibia's Lengthen.

516
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: You have to do that, you have to if.

517
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 4: You want to get noticed. He's played the president several times,

518
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 4: and nobody likes a short, stubby president.

519
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 3: No, you can't, and that's the everyone hates that only reason.

520
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 3: Danny DeVito's not allowed to play president. And he's the

521
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 3: most qualified, acting wise.

522
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 4: More qualified than Martin Sheen. Come on, let's be honest.

523
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 3: But Martin's got those big long tibbias. My god, you

524
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 3: could make.

525
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: A Getaways on Martin Sheen and.

526
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:08,719
Speaker 4: Yes, crazy, there are some shots where they screwed up

527
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 4: and the camera will go wide and you'll see these

528
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 4: like four or five foot long legs on the desk.

529
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 4: Makes no goddamn sense. That's not the desk in the

530
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 4: Oval office, but it's the desk that Sheen's at behind,

531
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 4: because he needed a tall desk for those lengthened tibbia's his.

532
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 4: You know, I think he's got his femur's done too.

533
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 4: That's gluttony.

534
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: Oh well, we don't want to get sued here. Hang

535
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: on guys.

536
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 4: At a certain point, you've got to do a show

537
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 4: that is a celebration of you. You know what I'm saying, Yes,

538
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 4: I think you've done enough for the community of Hollywood

539
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 4: that maybe it's time to take a little dip in

540
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 4: like you and get some comeback.

541
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, too generous.

542
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, we get that a lot. I appreciate that.

543
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 3: People ask why we have guests. They go, aren't you

544
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 3: guys the guests?

545
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: And we are.

546
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 2: And I will say it is a selfish thing on

547
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 2: my part because helping people makes me feel good. You know,

548
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 2: it's a high, It's like a drug. So it is

549
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 2: a celebration of us. Because and helping dogs, yes, and

550
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 2: adopting strange dogs.

551
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 4: But they're not going to find you in a hotel room,

552
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 4: you know, with your underwear around your ankles and you know,

553
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 4: a needle in your arm when you're helping people and

554
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 4: they're helping dogs. You know what I'm saying, You're not

555
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 4: going to become Hollywood tragedies. You're going to become and

556
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 4: I think you already are Hollywood heroes.

557
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 3: And yeah, and I don't shoot in my arm, No,

558
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: I respect that and between my toes are I put

559
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 3: or I stick it up my ass?

560
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 4: There's nothing wrong with that.

561
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 3: There really is, and people will try to tell you

562
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 3: that there is. But Scoop, troop, get out your pens.

563

00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 4: When I started, they used to call the ass shoots

565
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 4: the highway to Heaven. Those are the days, man, those

Speaker 4: it was really happening there, big time for a while.

579
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 2: The food and the very comfortable beds, sure's happening there

580
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 2: a long time.

581
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 1: Speak on that, yeah, speak on that.

582
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 4: Well. They pulled more than one body out of that hotel.

583
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 2: Let me tell you, if you didn't die there, you

584
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 2: were bullshit. Yeah, you were just nobody if you weren't

585
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 2: dying at the Chateau Marmont.

586
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 4: Yeah. Now I've gone there and done stand up at

587
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 4: lunch so that I could die metaphorically because I didn't

588
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 4: have the balls to die.

589
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 2: It's very breakdown. That lunch crowd is tough.

590
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 4: Yeah.

591
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 3: I remember being on a plane once that was starting

592
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,719
Speaker 3: to crash, and I asked the pilot to steer it

593
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 3: towards the Chateau Marmak because I said, I'm just going

594
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 3: to be so embarrassed if i die in this crash

595
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 3: and it's not at the Chateau, because I'm too big

596
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 3: a deal. Now, I wound up being able to stop

597
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 3: the plane crash match, But it's an important lesson of

598
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 3: how we value our legacy.

599
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 4: Do you know what else is an important lesson here

600
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 4: in the understated heroism of saving two hundred and ninety

601
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 4: three lives which you just washed over. I don't care.

602
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 3: I don't care about you wouldn't none of those people

603
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 3: you wouldn't know get.

604
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: Very embarrassed when you please. But it is a big deal.

605
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: It is. It was nice of you, know what I mean.

606
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,640

625
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,640

Speaker 4: you don't need the popcorn, but it's part of the experience. Yeah,

630
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 4: maybe that's the metaphor that the audience is part of

631
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 4: the experience, but do we need them?

632
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: That's it.

633
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 3: Finally somebody got it. It's taken quite a lot.

634
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 2: Taken thirty two episodes. Finally someone figured out why it's

635
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 2: called the popcorn Gallery.

636
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: It's so simple. Yeah, we could have just said that.

637
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 3: All along until you have a long career.

638
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 4: So we we've got two choices here. We can be

639
00:32:53,240 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 4: true to our conscience and our I feel like an

640
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 4: idiot lecture you guys on this most self effacing Hollywood

641
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 4: heroes ever met on conscience. But we could ignore the

642
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 4: popcorn and just go fuck the popcorn. We're not doing

643
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 4: popcorn because popcorn is not essential.

644
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 2: Or we could do Let's do both and we'll do

645
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 2: the segment, but just talk about how it's.

646
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 3: How unimportant it is.

647
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 2: Yes, fine, let's reach into the popcorn bag and we'll

648
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 2: take out the first question, Oh, big piece of popcorn.

649
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 2: This question is from Rye jel Dave.

650
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: You are a jel m. Yeah, Dave, you.

651
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 2: Are a renowned Hollywood lithario, second only to Warden Bady

652
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 2: and your woman's slaying exploits. Walk us through your faithful

653
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 2: decision reportedly made back on the set of Grace Underfire

654
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 2: to never ever wear a condom.

655
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 4: Well, I was working with a co star on that

656
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 4: show who's from Alabama, and she's the one who won

657
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 4: me over to the no condom philosophy. She said, if

658
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 4: there's no danger, it ain't shacks. You know what I'm saying, sweet.

659
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: And I thought, that's a very good impression.

660
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 4: Damn it, I'm getting rid of this rubber and I'm

661
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 4: going to ride. That's what I did.

662
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 3: And you also started keeping a loaded gun on the

663
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 3: bedside table. Huh.

664
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 4: Actually in the drawer. Yeah, I'm not a show off.

665
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 4: It's there, but it's not ostentatious. It's not there for

666
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,320
Speaker 4: all to see. It's just there.

667
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 3: Mm hm.

668
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 1: And you know about it. I know about it.

669
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you what keep it.

670
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I tell you what I wouldn't keep in that drawer.

671
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 4: It's a pack of condoms.

672
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 3: Disgusting, becaunless.

673
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 1: You're going to shoot them with the gun.

674
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 4: Okay, that's a good that never occurred to me. That's

675
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 4: kind of the Elvis sex thing. I love that you

676
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 4: shoot the t You stick a bunch of condoms on

677
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 4: the TV, and you shoot.

678
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 1: It probably do this. It's we you know, you collaborate.

679
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 3: Yes, three brains are better than one, you know.

680
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 4: But as my co star said when I told her

681
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 4: no condoms in my Drawceres, that makes you. It makes

682
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 4: you a real man, she said to me, and she

683
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 4: sean anger management.

684
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:25,280
Speaker 2: Now, yes, one of the funniest. I'm so glad that

685
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:26,439
Speaker 2: that things are working out.

686
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 3: And I'm yes, I'm doing concerned there aren't enough episodes

687
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 3: of the show. But at the same time, there you go.

688
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 4: You guys, are you just got so much love in

689
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 4: you for the rest of the business.

690
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 3: I just I don't know why they don't have a parade.

691
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: Well you're on. You wouldn't want We don't like it's

692
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: such a big clean but there's.

693
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 3: So much jealousy in this business and just snarky, backbiting,

694
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 3: and there try to be we try to be an

695
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 3: antidote to that.

696
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, here's another question.

697
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 3: Shoot, what's this in the pop going back? It's sort

698
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 3: of meteorite.

699
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: Oh well, I'll eat it anyway.

700
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 2: Now, okay, I thought it was done.

701
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: This one's from Washington, Mona.

702
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 2: Gent Dave Thomas, you were in the animated films Brother

703
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 2: Bear and Brother Bear too. Was it scary working with

704
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 2: the Bears horrifying.

705
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 4: One of the things they don't tell you when you're

706
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 4: doing animation is the danger that's involved in the job.

707
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 4: And I got admit I was cavalier. I didn't expect it.

708
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 4: But you know, I think Maranas and I probably escaped

709
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 4: by the skin of our teeth on at least three

710
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,520
Speaker 4: occasions where we could have been mauled to death and eaten,

711
00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 4: left headless in some animated frame, some panel of a

712
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 4: winter wonderland and there we are just bleeding stumps. We

713
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,359
Speaker 4: got out of it. But don't ever lowball animation. It's

714
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 4: dangerous as hell. I did another one that was dangerous too,

715
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 4: where I played a villain in a Superman Warner Brothers

716
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,879
Speaker 4: sing the Legion of Justice. That's what it was. It's

717
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 4: fucking dangerous stuff. I nearly got killed in that one too.

718
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 4: Superman tried to punch you punching yeah, yeah.

719
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: And and you were playing yourself in that No.

720
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 4: I was playing a character, thank god, because that's part

721
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 4: of what saved me. I had a big, like two

722
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 4: dimensional flat head, but I could have I could have

723
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 4: been killed.

724
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 3: That pretty scary stuff, and I think I'd like to

725
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 3: move away from this question because I'm getting too scared.

726
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're thinking about your viewers again.

727
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 3: I wish I could say it was that generous, but

728
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 3: I am getting a little too scared and I do

729
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 3: need a bit of a break.

730
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,440
Speaker 1: Let's reach back into the bag.

731
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 3: My hands in the soda. I guess this is the

732
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 3: ice keeps making this story. I'll pull it out and

733
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 3: dry it off.

734
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 2: Then here's a question from Octordoctopus, Dave, you recently had

735
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 2: a guest appearance on the Fox series Bones. Was it

736
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 2: scary being surrounded by so many skelingtons on the set

737
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 2: where you tempted to rearrange them into a xylophone so

738
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 2: maybe a pirate ghost could play it?

739
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 4: Now, that's a trick question because you called them skelingtons,

740
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 4: and that lets me know that you know more than

741
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 4: you're pretending. Yes, because the skelington.

742
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 2: Is he's pointing at me after Octopus, but he's talking

743
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 2: to you because you submitted the question.

744
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 4: It's infinitely more scary than a skeleton. Yes, okay, and

745
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 4: thank you for pointing that out, because a lot of

746
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 4: people think, oh, they go to a graveyard and they

747
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,359
Speaker 4: get some bodies that have decomposed and they put them

748
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,760
Speaker 4: on the set. They don't do that. They make these skelingtons,

749
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 4: and they're scary as hell and they have the ability

750
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 4: to kill you. So thank you for pointing that out

751
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 4: and reminding all of us of how dangerous the work

752
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 4: is and.

753
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 6: How honestly, maybe completely candidate, we deserve a little danger pain.

754
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 6: There's a little bonus or a little kick the fox,

755
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,280
Speaker 6: mister Murdoch and his infinite wisdom of building an empire

756
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 6: for his children. I guess he just didn't think that

757
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 6: maybe he's risking people's thoughts.

758
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: So you could work per diem because you good die?

759
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, per diame yeah for the dead.

760
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 1: Speak on that.

761
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 4: Well, there's per diems, which you used to get in

762
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,280
Speaker 4: the old days when you went on and did a show.

763
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 4: Then there's the per diames, which you get if you're

764
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,760
Speaker 4: willing to give your life for the show. I don't

765
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 4: take per diams, no, because I'm a sucker. Oh no.

766
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 3: But it's a nice chunk of check, chunk of change.

767
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 4: It's a nice chunk.

768
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 3: It's a nice chunk of chang.

769
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.

770
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 4: It is it's Chinese currency or possibly bitcoin. It depends

771
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 4: really they pay you in whatever they whatever they got

772
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 4: that day. But yeah, per dimes, don't don't mess around

773
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 4: with them. They'll kill you.

774
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 3: But it's tempting, right because it is a nice chunk

775
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:24,479
Speaker 3: of chang.

776
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 4: It's a nice chunk of chang. Yeah, there's no question.

777
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 3: And early, early in my career, I might have taken

778
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 3: a per dime or two, just you know, just because

779
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 3: I just fucking love money so much.

780
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 4: Was that in your early TV days? Is the Shanghai

781
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:42,720
Speaker 4: Check TV stuff that you did in Formosa? That stuff

782
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 4: was fantastic. Man, Most people don't know about that because

783
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 4: they don't pay attention to international TV.

784
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 3: It was stupid.

785
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 4: No, No, you made a dictator look great? Who can

786
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 4: do that?

787
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 3: It was important to me that he'd be likable, you know,

788
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, there's so many TV characters who

789
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,399
Speaker 3: are just foul villains, and I just thought, shouldn't we

790
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 3: like this guy? And how do you make him likable?

791
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: He was a clutter?

792
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 3: You give him, yes, you make him a clutz, You

793
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 3: give him some heart. Okay, you have somebody else say

794
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 3: how much he's likable? Well you were, heise are the tricks?

795
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 4: You were a sidekick there. But let me tell you something.

796
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 4: For my money, you were the star.

797
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: Thank you.

798
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and for the money that I got paid as

799
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 3: well as getting paid more than the star. So I

800
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 3: was not really a sidekick in that way.

801
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 4: Okay, So.

802
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: Not really, you know, not really a.

803
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 3: Sidekick just in turn, that's not how the show thought

804
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 3: of me, because obviously I'm getting the most money there.

805
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 4: See, I didn't know that. Now you're you're getting into

806
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 4: the behind the scenes stuff, the transparency that people love.

807
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 4: Speak on that.

808
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 3: Well, the money that I made was more than the

809
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,399
Speaker 3: other performers the show.

810
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,719
Speaker 4: Okay, and that's very similar to what you said a

811
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 4: moment ago. If we could kind of push the veil

812
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,439
Speaker 4: aside and get behind that to what.

813
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:15,280
Speaker 3: Well, in my team negotiated my deal. They made sure

814
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 3: that the amount of dollars I was getting would be

815
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,439
Speaker 3: higher than the other performers.

816
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 4: And this would have been your super team, the w

817
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:34,760
Speaker 4: Emmy f O, William Morris, Formosa Agents. Those guys are deadly,

818
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 4: they're short, but they're they're legion.

819
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 3: They're vipers.

820
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:45,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, before you know it, you'll be rotating on a spit.

821
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 2: What an apple in your mouth?

822
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 4: What a great start for your career, What a what

823
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:56,400
Speaker 4: a building block, and you've built on that block, I

824
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 4: got to tell you, and you're still here.

825
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I outlasted shang Ka check and uh, and

826
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:11,839
Speaker 3: my legacy outlasts is as well. Good job, Grassius and Migo, Dave.

827
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 2: Is there anything you'd like to plug any upcoming shows?

828
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 4: Or I was at a party with a Cheech and

829
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 4: you know him from the smoke?

830
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:27,839
Speaker 5: Oh?

831
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 4: Yes, I know. I know Tommy. I did that seventies

832
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,959
Speaker 4: show with Tommy. I'm very familiar with him. But Cheech

833
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 4: I hadn't really met, and I was standing beside him

834
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 4: and it was one of those awkward moments where we're

835
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,399
Speaker 4: We're like, the party's going on, and we got nothing

836
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 4: to say to each other. And I turned to him

837
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 4: and I said to him this, say this Zor What

838
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 4: kind of man is he? And he looks at me

839
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 4: and laughs, and I said, do you know, tink, he

840
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 4: resembles down to go to La Vega. I personally think

841
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 4: without the mask he would be the same man. And

842
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 4: he does so much for the poor. This started a conversation,

843
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 4: and we want to do a comedy Zorro. Nobody's touched

844
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,280
Speaker 4: that one yet, and I think there's plenty of action

845
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 4: and plenty of fun to be had south of the

846
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 4: Border with me and Cheech and the Adventures of Zoro.

847
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 4: We're not gonna play Zoro. Somebody's got to be Bernardo,

848
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 4: his blind or deaf assistant, and somebody's got to be

849
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 4: Sergeant Garcia. I think I can do Garcia. I think

850
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 4: he can do Bernardo. And then we need like a

851
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 4: young cool Oh my god, either of you guys could

852
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 4: be this character.

853
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:52,479
Speaker 2: Oh okay, so your plug is for you and Cheech

854
00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 2: is comedy Zorro, Yes, starring me and Hayes as Zorro.

855
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 2: I wonder if there's a way to do it, so

856
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,839
Speaker 2: we come buy with the computers and stuff they're doing now,

857
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 2: we use your hair and my kind of like torso.

858
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 4: That or you could do a little thing I like

859
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 4: to call Zoro two point zh both of you play Zoral.

860
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 4: Two guys on one horse. Am I talking of recipe
