00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: and he's like, man, why he had a hat on,

215
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 1: And I thought, oh, he must be bald. I don't know,

216
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: That's how I thought. And then he goes, what do

217
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,760

222
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: relaxing this, I gotta be like that, And and then

223
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: we became friends on the show and he's like, hey, John,

224
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: I think you could be a stand up. I go

225
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: really goes yeah, not like me, but like, there's this

226
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 1: guy Kevin Meaney and he's really funny but silly, and

227
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 1: so he brought me to catch Rising Star in New

228
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 1: York and and Kevin was hilarious. Mini and met him

229
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: and and then Dennis got up and going up, and

230
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 1: then I got up John Lovett's yeah, and then I

231
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: didn't know what I was doing, which I didn't. I

232
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: think they just laughed five minutes later, like John Lovett's

233
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: it was like one hand clapping and I go, oh,

234
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: you really gotta know what you're doing. I had had

235
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: no idea. I didn't know. I mean I I used

236
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: to do Woody Allen and Lenny Bruce's routines in my dorm,

237
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: but not my own stuff. Anyway, afterward I think it,

238
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: Dennis goes, Okay, I got twenty five bucks, let's go eat.

239
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: We're dead broke. I go, what you just got it?

240
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: For fifteen minutes they give you money for dinner? Are

241
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: you kidding? I thought it was the greatest thing ever

242
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: your money that night too. No, well, how times have changed.

243
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: It was only up for five minutes. I was. I

244
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: was a drama major at U C. Irvine and then

245
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: I was going to do stand up and they were

246
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: teaching a workshop uh at the Comedy Store annex they

247
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 1: called it where they later built the House of Blues,

248
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: and Danny Mora was teaching the class and stand up.

249
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: He goes, well, if you're being coming on a Saturday,

250
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: it was free. He goes, If you want to be

251
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: a stand up because you want to get in a sitcom, don't,

252
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: don't do it. They're not hiring standards for sitcoms. And

253
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 1: then he goes, I go they're not. No, no, no, no,

254
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: I go, and I raised my hand and goes he goes, yeah.

255
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: I go, well you think they would hire you guys.

256
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: You're really funny. He goes, yeah, well you think they would,

257
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: but they don't. Well, they just hired Robin Williams to

258
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: do Mark and Mindy. I mean, and I thought he

259
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 1: was just saying, like, if you want to be a

260
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: stand up to it, because it's, you know, like an

261
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: art form, you want to do it? And I ran

262
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: in him. Later he goes, I hear you tell a

263
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: story about me. This was like a couple of years ago.

264
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: Fraser Smith told him. I go, yeah, well you said

265
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 1: you know that I thought you were just saying, like, no,

266
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: if you really want to be a stand up, He goes, no, no,

267
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: I really believe that. I go were of course they

268
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: were hiring stand ups for sitcoms back then, But anyway,

269
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: so I thought I'll skip that step and I'd go

270
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,959
Speaker 1: to the growling. So stand up was always something I

271
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,839
Speaker 1: wanted to do. I can't rest, so you can talk now? No,

272
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: I like when you talk. I'm listening. Is I'm very interested.

273
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: You're listening and you're also falling asleep. I'm watching the

274
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: dogs making sure they're good. In case you guys you're

287
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: his club called the Blue Parrot in New York and

00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: it was all basically an African American club and hang out.

289
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: But anyway, we go in and I've never seen anything

290
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: like it, and in like in two minutes, thirty women

291
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: were like whoop, swooped down on him and I'm like, oh,

292
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: this is what like it was like when Elvis Presley

293
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: was famous. It was like that. I go, oh, this

294
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: is a superstar. I mean, I've never seen anything like

295
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: that before since. It was unbelievable. And Eddie was just

296
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: really nice guy. And he like, do you think ayby standing?

297
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, you know was then I don't know.

298
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: I think he's twenty seven, but I know he was.

299
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: He just turned sixty last month this month. Rather well,

300
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: I'm saying not in five. I met him when he

301
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: was twenty seven. There's no pictures together. I don't believe no.

302
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: But one time was at his house and I know

303
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: what I said. I don't. I would make him laugh.

304
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 1: You see, Eddie, you make the country laugh, but I

Speaker 1: from you. I mean, that's the biggest compliment ever. I mean,

335
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: you're the funniest. But it was fun. This will all

336
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: be in my book how Russell. This is all be

337
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: in my book called how Russell Peters Stole My Act.

338
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: I would be playing Arenas if Hustle hadn't stole in

339
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: my act. I can't stop. When I met Russell, he

340
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: was a Jewish kid named Ed Schwartz, how ny and

341
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: I said, he goes, I said, why don't you just

342
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: pretend you from Canada and your parents are from India. Anyway,

343
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 1: I'll do it. I was kidding. Little did I know

344
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 1: it would sell out Arenas well? John, that's how I

345
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: do things. So, you know, John was that one of

346
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: my arena shows. He came in Toronto and he goes,

347
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: why don't you come and go where you're playing? Goes

348
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: may Belief Guard? Where where the Canada Center? No, but

349
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: it was where the maple what's the team there? Yeah?

350
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: He goes, it's where the Maple Leafs play. I'm like, what,

351
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: because yeah, I'm doing two shows. I go how many seats?

352
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: He goes, fifteen thousand. I'm like, are you kidding? And

353
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: I and I went and I just couldn't believe it.

354
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 1: Fifteen thousand people no opener, he comes out, they go

355
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: nuts and then it was like it was like to me,

356
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: it was like a world. The theme of the show

357
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: was the world. Where are my Filipino people at? Then

358
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: he does a bit about that where are my people

359
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: from India? And you hear the people cheering, Where is

360
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: my people from South Africa? Where is my peoples like China?

361
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: I mean every country? It was. It was fantastic, but

362
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: I just one guy selling that many tickets. I was like,

363
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: oh my god. And and it's you know Andrew Dice,

364
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,840

Speaker 1: does Arenas, Yeah he did that, didn't And Kevin No,

367
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: I know, he's huge. I know. But Kevin did that

368
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: stadium in Philadelphia fifty three thou people. No, I didn't know.

369
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: I've never met him. I'm sure he's a great You

370
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 1: don't know Kevin, I've never him. You would have known.

371
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 1: But Okay, him too. But it's so rare. It's like

372
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: it's just like you you hit a nerve. And I remember,

373
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: I remember Russell did Ah, he doesn't know this, but

374
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: I said to his brother, how did how did this happen?

375
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: He goes, uh, he was, well, Russell did a Showtime

376
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 1: special and I did a special in Canada two three. Yeah,

377
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: And then he goes, no one really saw it, he goes,

378
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: and then somebody put it on YouTube me and it

379
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: was called the shot Heard around the world, and I go, oh,

380
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 1: and I didn't want to go. Yeah it was me,

381
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: but it was me, And I would like he's very texting,

382
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: I would like my cut, the very tech savvy John Okay,

383
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: who put it on there? We don't know exactly it

384
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: was me. I knew it. I knew you were always

385
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: my angel Jarn. Check it out this summer. I've got

386
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: shows in different area codes. That's right, I got shows.

387
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: You get the idea. Anyway, I'm so happy to have

388
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 1: a full schedule, but that means I'll be doing a

389
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 1: lot of traveling and trying to find ways to entertain

390
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,880
Speaker 1: myself on the road and listen. Now that there's some

391
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 1: semblance of normalcy in the world, you're probably gonna be

392
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: going from place to place more and more frequently too.

393
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: So my advice to you is take your Racons with you.

394
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: Whether you're listening to some nineties hip hop or classic

395
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: rock or whatever it is you're listening to. Probably hopefully

396
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: you're listening to the latest episode of Culturally Canceled with

397
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: Russell Peters myself. A pair of Racon wireless earbuds in

398
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,959
Speaker 1: your ears can make all the difference. You get crisp,

399
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: powerful sound at half the price of other premium audio brands.

400
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: Raycons look great, but they feel even better. They come

401
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 1: in a cool range of colors with customizable gel tips

402
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: included for a comfortable in ear fit. Plus, Racons are

403
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: built to go wherever you go, with quick and seamless

404
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 1: Bluetooth pairing and a compact charging case. I love the

405
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: fact that racons are super portable and they have a

406
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: twenty four hour battery life. That means even if I'm

407
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: flying internationally, I know that they're going to last for

408
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: the whole flight and rental car drive. Well maybe not

409
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: the drive, just kidding. I'll probably use the stereo in

410
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: the car because there's nothing worse than having your earbuds

411
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: die on you with no option to charge them. But

412
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: with Racon earbuds, I never have to worry about that.

413
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,520

422
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: I was happy to be in India and I met

423
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: this couple and I said, you should have a kid

424
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: named Russell and they said, you know, thank you for

425
00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: that wonderful idea. John was thirteen at a time, but

426
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: he was very ahead of his ears. And then I said,

427
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: maybe you should move to Toronto. That's just an idea,

428
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,880
Speaker 1: and they did, and here we are fifty one years later. Yeah,

429
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: your mom just told the story of how you got

430
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: your name last week, story about she's saying name him

431
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: Russell or no, No, she was wrong. She was wrong.

432
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: Different story. She remembers it differently, but she made it up.

433
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: She made up a totally different story she did. I

434
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: mean it might have been she. I think she just

435
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 1: misremembered you because she said it was a woman who

436
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: told her to name you Russell. Right, maybe your hair was.

437
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 1: One time Russell called me and he goes, what are

438
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: you doing? I go, oh, you know, I'm just in

439
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 1: l A. And you know the Christmas decorations ever such

440
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: a special time. Christmas is special. And then he went, mm,

441
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 1: Christmas special. It's true. I can't deny anything. Now, John,

442
00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:00,479
Speaker 1: you want to my Christmas special? What? Well, there's an

443
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: original idea. Why don't you just do it in Canada?

444
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: And went mm hmm again, why didn't you just hire

445
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: phase on Love and Scott Thompson even better. I don't

446
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: remember that. I said, get Michael Bublet, by the way,

447
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: you want to hear a story about Michael Bublet, Yes, please,

448
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: the singer. So this friend of mine, maybe Quinlan, she

449
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: was in the movie shows you want to come see it?

450
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: So I go see it a screening and another friend,

451
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: Christa Allen, is in it. She's the lead. And then

452
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: the other lead was his unknown and it was Michael

453
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: Boublet and he was twenty and heavy like a lot.

454
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: He was a lot heavier. He's lost a lot of weight,

455
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 1: and so he was in it, and I met him

456
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 1: afterward and the movie no one knew who he was.

457
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 1: He hadn't he was twenty. And he goes and I said, hey, um,

458
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: and he's saying in the movie, are you're really like

Speaker 1: a great singer? I think you could. I think you'll

460
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 1: do really well. He goes really and go yeah, I'm

461
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: not saying it was my idea for him to be

462
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: a singer, although I am no, I wasn't idea, but

463

Speaker 1: I remember then I go, hey, you really get it.

464
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: But he was completely unknown. And then the next time

465
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: I saw him was on Russell's Christmas special and I

00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 1: Well you know he's also a person. You sing though, too,

490
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: don't you, John. I do sing and I've been working

491
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: on it. So I'd like to share with your listen.

492
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: There's some tips, some tips that I've learned, which is, um,

493
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: if you really want to learn how to do something,

494
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: you need to learn from someone who does it professionally

495
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 1: and can explain it. You see. So for example, um,

496
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: you could take a class from in college about how

497
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: to do stand up and they're telling you comedy. Or

498
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,239
Speaker 1: you can ask a comedian or an acting There's this

499
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 1: big acting teacher and I don't want to say her name,

500
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: but she's a fraud and she's never doesn't have one credit. Yeah,

501
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 1: and she wrote a book about acting. And and Uda

502
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 1: Hogan wrote the same book. Uh Uda Hogan was a

503
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: Tony Award winning actress, a big teacher at Herbert berghof

504
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: Studios Herbert, New York. He was her husband, and she

505
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 1: wrote the same book. It's the same chapter headings, it's

506
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,439
Speaker 1: it's identical. And then and then apparently this kid was

507
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: taking her class and I it is in this movie Happiness,

508
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: and she's and they were she goes, oh, they were

509
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: doing the scene, and then they said, she said, try

510
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: to do it like Will Ferrell. And then the guy

511
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: did it and s see if John Lovetts had done

512
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: it like that, he'd still have a career. So of

513
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 1: course I was insulted. I go, well, I go. First

514
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: of all, I have twenty seven credits after that job.

515
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 1: Now I have more than that. Secondly, shouldn't know what

516
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: she's talking about. You. If you're gonna act, you don't

517
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 1: do it like another actor. You do it like you

518
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: would do it with your brain and your personality and

519
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: your imagination, not somebody else's, and which is all you

520
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 1: can do anyway, and you can pretend you're someone. But

521
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: I go. And thirdly I go. The director wrote the script,

522
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: so he has a vision in his head of the movie,

523
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: the filmmaker, and his vision in his head was me

524
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: playing that part. And I'm also great in the scene

525
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: that I'm known for it, so it's just moving ridiculous happiness.

526
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: The opening scene was happy and it was a really

527
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: hard scene to do. Is really written great, It's really

528
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: funny and sad and emotions are going all I'm sad,

529
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: I'm funny, I'm angry, and it goes all over the place.

530
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: It was a hard scene to do and M Todd

531
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: Salons did it. But that's just anyway, that's just And

532
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: so I started looking her up. I go, she's never

533
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: an acting anything in her life. And I looked at

534
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: her book and I go the chapters. I go, this

535
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 1: is Udah Hoggins book Respect for Acting. She just put

536
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: the the chapters in a different order. It's just like

537
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: a scam, you know, Like I'll give you an example.

538
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: She like, if you said who on a movie? Who

539
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: should you introduce yourself to? And someone that's never made

540
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: a movie is not going to know the answer to that,

541
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: and I do, and you'll have to I'll be doing

542
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: a I'm doing a new thing. I'll plug it. It's

543
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: very soon called it's funny, but it's true acting. Schmack

544
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: ng on cameo and they'll be If you want to

545
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: learn how to act, you have questions, you can go

546
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: there pretty soon by the time in cameo, Yeah, I'm

547
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: doing cameo. What what's your rate on cameo? It's a

548
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: subscription thing. It's the it'll month ten bucks a month,

549
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: and then you can ask me any about acting and

550
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 1: they'll be all these videos just starting it and it'll

551
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: be great and and you'll be learning learning from someone

552
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 1: who's done it. And of course I don't tell people,

553
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: to which I'm sure people go, oh, you just say

554
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: be like you. I'm like, no, don't be like me.

555
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 1: Be like you and not teaching you to do it

556
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: like me. You go that, that's not what you do. Well,

557
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 1: I figured out who I was by trying to be

558
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: you for real. Well, you figured out you could do impressions.

559
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: You see, I can only do one me and everybody

560
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: goes every time we do in a person, let's love,

561
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: it's again, and that's love. Its do Denzel Washington. All right,

562
00:30:53,880 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: I'm the equalizer, so so um any anyway, that's my point.

563
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: So the point was about singing. So I did this

564
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 1: TV show, go ahead, look it up called Sing your

565
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:14,719
Speaker 1: Face Off, and we had to imitate famous singers. So

566
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: I'll go I could do Pavaratti. And then I'm listening

567
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: to him and I'm like, I'm an idiot. Why did

568
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,479
Speaker 1: I say that he's the guy? He's so amazing. And

569
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: I had I sing lod Don a mobile and I

570
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: had to hit this high note that's that's that means

571
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 1: Elton John and a fat out and I looked, you

572
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 1: know Elton John, So I go, I couldn't hit this

573
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: high note and they and they had a singing teacher,

574
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: Roger Love, who's great. But I still couldn't get it.

575
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: And then I found a video on YouTube of Pavarotti

576
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: explaining how he sings. I went, oh, was it in English? Yeah,

577
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: and then called covered singing. You can look it up.

578
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: He explains how he sings, and they go, that's the

579
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: way you do it. Of course he knows. Then I

580
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: found another video and Roger Loves a great guy by

581
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 1: the way, and a great singing coach. But I but

582
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: I wasn't able to the way he was saying, and

583
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: I couldn't do it. And this show, Sing your Face Off,

584
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: it's all over the world in forty countries. It's very popular,

585
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: but it's hard to find people to do it because

586
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: you've got to be able to sing and imitate other singers.

587
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: And the best one I did was I did Roy

588
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: Orbison and it was like spooky if you can find

589
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: it wrestled parts I mean Peters. But anyway, my point

590
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: is if you want to sing. I said to somebody, well,

591
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: what does Frank Sinatra do? That's so great? And they go, well,

592
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: it's it's phrasing is that they can't explain it. And

593
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: there's a thing on if you go on Google, go

594
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: tips on popular Singing by Frank Sinatra, a book about

595
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: how to sing. And he explains breathing, which is different

596
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: than any teacher explains it. And that's my point. And

597
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: it works like a charm and and if you practice

598
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: it and and basically he says, every teacher will go, well,

599
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: you you breathe in the air, and you push your

600
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: diaphragm out, you push it in. Is this Frank Sinatra says,

601
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 1: no breathing the air through your nose. You don't try

602
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 1: out your vocal cords. And he goes, your chest. Your

603
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: your chest fills with air, you know, your lungs filled

604
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: with air, and your chest expands. Now he goes, don't

605
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: let your chest go back in now, that's what your

606
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: focuses on, your chest rip cage, not going back in well.

607
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: To do that, you have your you use your stomach

608
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: muscles and you and but it's just a different thing

609
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: to focus on and it works. And if you combine

610
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: that with pa variety, having your throat open and relaxed

611
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: and just uh, you know, it's it's it's unbelievable. And

612
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: I know, I mean, and then you just practice it

613
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: every day and you get better and better and better,

614
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: to the point where Russell Peters says, John, we're doing

615
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: a whole podcast an hour. I just want you to sing,

616
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: And I go, no, you're not paying me. You can sing, though,

617
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: I think so, I mean, I try. You know, I

618
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: never said I'm I'm a professional singer, but I love

619
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: to sing. And I've gotten to sing with Robbie Williams,

620
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: my friend emmy job. At that he was the biggest roster.

621
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: He had the Royal Albert Hall and on his album,

622
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: and I got to sing a Dodger Stadium a bunch,

623
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 1: and I sung at Carnegie Hally. But I mean, I

624
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 1: sing way better now because I learned from Pavarotti and

625
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra, the two greatest singers ever they go, that's

626
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: who you listen to. That's my point. I mean the

627
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: two greatest white singers ever. Let's not negat Aretha Franklin

628
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: and all the good ones. I'm not saying she's not

629
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,919
Speaker 1: a great singer, but but I think there are two

630
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: of the greatest singers ever. You know, Robbie was living

631
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: in l A for a while. His niece. Yeah, I

632
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: think he's I think he moved back to England though

633
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: I don't know he was, but his address was I'm kidding.

634
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: So now, ironically this is Robbie. He's doing a song

635
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: frank Sinatra and being Crosby saying, well, did you ever

636
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: I'm singing okay, And I don't think I'm singing great

637
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: in this. I'm trying to. I'm trying to imitate being Crosby.

638
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:05,439
Speaker 1: What a small party this is? I sing better now.

639
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: Russell won't eat cow because he's from India, culturally canceled,

640
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: politically incorrect on you a cow, don't need a burger.

641
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,760
Speaker 1: But I'll eat pork and you won't and I won't.

642
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: It's a different religion. Enjoy your shellfish. Oh you can't,

643
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: I can't. Would you like a cheeseburger, sure, but no cheese. Yes,

644
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 1: but I can't have the cheese, and you'll just yes.

645
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: So I get the beef and you get the cheese,

646
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: and both of our arteries are clogged. Yet we're happy.

647
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: Remember you told me about Hamburger Hamlet. You said that

648
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: was the best burger in town and just something that

649
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 1: and now it's gone. Now what's the best burger in town? Uh?

650
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: And um, well the kind I like. It's called a

651
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: hamburger hap. No, not hamburger habit. We used to be

652
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,439
Speaker 1: called that hamburger haben. But are really great burgers in Malibu.

653
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: Across the street where the little park is, there's and

654
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,359
Speaker 1: there's John's Garden. There's a little hamburger stand there. It's

655
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: really good and the fries are delicious. Wearing Malibu. I

656
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 1: want to know. On web Way across no, is it

657
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: web Way? It's where the little shopping mall is, the

658
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 1: market right after the bridge on PC before you get

659
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: to the colony on the right you turn right, used

660
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: to be the Malibo mark. There's all these right there.

661
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: No after Aft. It's wrong with you, my god. It's

662
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 1: where the park is. It's um what cross creek? You

663
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: turn right on cross Bare. Right after the gas station,

664
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 1: you turn right off of pH and on your left

665
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: and right there's a little shops. It's on the left

666
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: there's a great sandwich place, John's Garden, and then there's

667
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: a malib. I don't know what it's called, but it's

668
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:07,879
Speaker 1: a little hamburger place. Yeah, you know what, Eddie. Oh

669
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 1: my god, is it good? What's good about it? What

670
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 1: is it better than shake shack? Oh my god, Yes,

671
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: I love shake shack. I get it. I get shake shack.

672
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 1: But it's better thinner thick burgers thick. I don't like

673
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: them too thick, not not too thick. Of course we

674
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,919
Speaker 1: could go about, well, you've never been in too thick,

675
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: have you? I am fairly That's what happens with me

676
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 1: and women. It's always the same complaint, too thick. So

677
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: I've been fortunate enough to have the Helix mattress. Let

678
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: me tell you it's incredible. I took the Helix quiz,

679
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,759
Speaker 1: which is what you'll do, and I was matched with

680
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: the Midnight Lucks, which happens to be their most awarded mattress.

681
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 1: Because I wanted something with a medium feel and I

682
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,399
Speaker 1: tend to sleep on my side and let me tell

683
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,120

Speaker 1: specifically designed to offer pressure point relief for side sleepers

685
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: like myself. So now I don't wake up with sore

686
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: hips or shoulders anymore because I got a huge hold

687

710
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: that was really fun because in that yeah, I love baseball,

711
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 1: and I loved women, and I love old movies, like

712
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: making a movie in the forties. And then most of

713
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: the cast. I knew everybody. I knew Penny, your daughter Tracy,

714
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: you know, I'd lived in her house for two summers,

715
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,280
Speaker 1: and I knew them really well. I knew Tom Hanks,

716
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: I was friends with new and Gina Davis and Madonna

717
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: had hosted Saturday Night Live and knew them, and that

718
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: Madonna was there for two weeks. So it was just

719
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: I knew everybody, So it was really fun. And the

720
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: part was written. I'd never met rosy o'donald and that

721
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: was her first movie. She was so new. We went

722
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: to go see her do stand up, and she started

723
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: imitating me on stage and she goes, and then she goes,

724
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: I can't believe John Lovetts is in the audience watching

725
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 1: me right now. That's that knew she was. I can't

726
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,240
Speaker 1: believe Jon Lovitz is here. No, she's like John Lovitt.

727
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 1: She goes, get to tell me. I don't know she

728
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 1: started imitating like that, John loves there, how are you?

729
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 1: I don't know she started imitating. I met Lori Petty

730
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: for the first time, but I I only worked the

731
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 1: first three weeks in the movie, and then they let

732
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: me go. Can you blame them? Yes? I can. No,

733
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 1: they didn't let me go. They my part was over

734
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: and they let me go. One of my saying. But

735
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: when the movie came out, I felt so proud to

736
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 1: be in it. Oh, this is a funny story. So

737
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: then they had the premiere in New York at the

738
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:56,560

Speaker 1: away from me, just like exploded anger. And he walked

754
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: away And I said, what did you say to him?

755
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: Because I said you, I asked him if he had

756
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 1: a big penis, who'd you? Who do you ask? Regis Philbin? Who?

Speaker 1: You know what movie I enjoyed? You in Great White Hype? No,

789
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, because I'm not psychic. Well it's funny

790
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: you mentioned Great White Hype because the director was Reginald Hudlin,

791
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:56,399
Speaker 1: And well, I just ran into him today where at

792
00:43:56,440 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 1: the bank my trillion. I'm going to text him right now. No,

793
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 1: I swear to god, I just ran in him today.

794
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: That's me and Sam. That was a third time working

795
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: with Sam, and my part really I maybe had one line,

796
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 1: so I had to Reginald go, let's just improvise. Reggie

797
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 1: said that, I call Reggie Hedlin and you let everyone improvise,

798
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: and so I had to make my part up. But

799
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 1: Sam was such a great actor. I ever seen where

800
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: he's screaming at me, and I thought he was really mad,

801
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: Like are you mad at me? Goes? No, I go, oh,

802
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 1: I really thought he was pissed. But Sam's a great guy.

803
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: I met him doing a movie, Um, Lethal Weapon two.

804
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,439
Speaker 1: See you've been in a lot of great films. Thank you. Well.

805
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 1: I feel fortunate. You know, they're fun to do. That

806
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: movie was really fun. I'll tell you a story about

807
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 1: that movie. On the set, there's like Sam's office, like

808
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: like in an office in the living room to his office,

809
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 1: and there was a white piano in the set. Anyway,

810
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 1: Jamie Fox was in the movie and and he had

811
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: a he had a pretty small part, but he was

812
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: sitting at the piano during breaks, playing the piano and

813
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: just kind of singing to himself. So I was standing

814
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 1: there listening. I was blown away and said, you know,

815
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:15,959
Speaker 1: I said, you know, I played piano, but not like that.

816
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:18,440
Speaker 1: I go, jeez, you sound like great. You should make

817
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 1: a record. I mean, you really sound professional. I had,

818
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 1: like an idiot. I had no idea that he was

819
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,919
Speaker 1: a music prodigy and in the high school and got

820
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: a you know, I think he got a scholarship from

821
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 1: music to college. And Jamie is a very insane, but

822
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,000
Speaker 1: he he was, yeah, he was. He was just singing

823
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 1: real soft to himself. I go, man, you sound like

824
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: a you should make a record, and of course he

825
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 1: listened to me like you well, I'm not saying I

826
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,799
Speaker 1: gave him the idea. Obviously I didn't, but I didn't know.

827
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 1: But he was like, I didn't know he did that.

828
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: Oh he's that guy is so talented. I saw I

829
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,720
Speaker 1: ran into and I said, hey, I saw the movie

830
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 1: ray Go. I think you should have got two oscars,

831
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 1: one for the music and then playing and one for

832
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:02,320
Speaker 1: the acting. I mean, he was unbelievably great, and that's

833
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: so great, and you just want an off their oscar

834
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:10,320
Speaker 1: on the weekend, Jamie for what soul the animated movie?

835
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 1: Oh he did? Oh, I didn't know, for what animated movie? No,

836
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 1: I know, but what was the oscar? For a voiceover?

837
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: What am I keeping tabs? I don't even have. You're

838
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: the one who saw that. I didn't. I saw the

839
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,239
Speaker 1: last hour of the show. I didn't see the whole thing.

840
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 1: But he's a great guy. You know, certain people, they

841
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:34,840
Speaker 1: become huge and they retain their humanity. Let us say,

842
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,360
Speaker 1: they don't get arrogant, they become nicer. And I always

843
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: say to me, it's a mark of a great character

844
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 1: when someone gets like that and they're still just you know,

845
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,759
Speaker 1: a regular nice guy. And you know people say, well,

846
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,879
Speaker 1: if carts they're nice to you. That's the thing. Once

847
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 1: you do successful anything that at the times and someone's

848
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 1: nice to you, or a girl likes you, or a

849
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: woman likes you, or a dog, that's because you're you

850
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: the go churse, they're nice to you. I go. So

851
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: if I wasn't me, that wouldn't be nice. I don't know.

852
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:10,360
Speaker 1: They're nice people. A people are nice to Russell Peters?

853
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: How dare those? You can hear that I'm very eerie.

854
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 1: You don't have the headphones on and I'm whispering. Everyone

855
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:22,359
Speaker 1: in towns very nice except Russell Peters. You can hear

856
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:26,919
Speaker 1: that I have superhero. I was just testing you don't

857
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,359
Speaker 1: have your headphones on? You do because your ears are

858
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 1: kind of small. What I didn't get in ears not

859
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,759
Speaker 1: really made up for it and knows not to be

860
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: a jerk, but they're not proportionate to your head. No,

861
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 1: I'm joking, it's of course they are. They're fine. You

862
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 1: have perfectly fine ears. Russell. Is it? Did you hear that? What? Nothing?

863
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,399
Speaker 1: I didn't say anything? See John so good. I don't

864
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 1: actually know how to continue the conversation because whenever John

865
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 1: and I hang out. Well, I'm trying to be entertaining.

866
00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,800
Speaker 1: I could just shut up. Well, here's the thing, I

867
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: don't know how to not be John. When I'm hanging

868
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,240
Speaker 1: out with John. You can be John. I can't stop.

869
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 1: When I was in college and a great professor William

870
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:12,080
Speaker 1: Needles and Tommy Shakespeare, He's like anyway, he was like

871
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,360
Speaker 1: a father fair. He was a great guy. And I

872
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,719
Speaker 1: was maybe nine. It was like a father nineteen. He

873
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,160
Speaker 1: was fifty nine. I said, a father figure. So anyway,

874
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 1: I said, Mr Needles, do you think I could be

875
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 1: an actor? Yes, Jonathan Knight, you have everything going for you.

876
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,360
Speaker 1: He accept your voice. Really need to work on your voice,

877
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 1: because I would slur my words and talk fast and

878
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: talk as fast as I think. So I'd be like, hey,

879
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: what do you do here, Russell? What do you want

880
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,719
Speaker 1: to get? Maybe? Oh? Wait? No? Yeah, right okay, and

881
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 1: like what I used to talk like that all the time.

882
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,399
Speaker 1: I was just like, hey, I was thinking, wait where

883
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: you Okay? I was just I was just saying everything

884
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 1: I was thinking, which you know that's what fast? Yeah,

885
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: But I was like, you think fast. I was saying

886
00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:01,600
Speaker 1: it that fast, So you yourself, Well, I was unintelligible.

887
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 1: You couldn't understand the word I was saying, like now

888
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: like this, hey Russell, can we get wait? Oh yeah,

889
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 1: never mind. So anyway, ironically I thought my voice was

890
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 1: nothing like actors would have these great voices. How do

891
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:17,840
Speaker 1: you do? And like this? You know? And I was

892
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 1: just like hello, that nothing. I thought it was nothing,

893
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: like there's nothing about my voice that's unique or distinct.

894
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 1: And next people are imitating. And remember when time Phil goes,

895
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 1: you know what's so funny fell Harmy goes? Every time

896
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,680
Speaker 1: people get around John. After a few minutes they started

897
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:36,320
Speaker 1: imitating him. I said, yeah, why I taught this acting class.

898
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: Fraser Smith, an actor a comedian, asked me to teach it.

899
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,919
Speaker 1: So I tried it. And then one guy, Lauren Paul

900
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 1: and the really nice guy, he goes, how do I do?

901
00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 1: What you're doing here? What do you mean? He was,

902
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,280
Speaker 1: how do you do? How do you think of talking

903
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 1: like that? I go, like what? And he goes and

904
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 1: then he goes that, I go, what, I don't know

905
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:57,840
Speaker 1: what you're talking made? Is that? I go? What? Oh?

906
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 1: He goes that. I go, I don't that's just me.

907
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:02,840
Speaker 1: But that's how my mother would talk and now my

908
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:07,160
Speaker 1: grandmother really talked like that. My aunt really talked like that.

909
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 1: She's my mom's younger sister. She sounded more like my

910
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: I said, you sound more like my mom than my mom.

911
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 1: She sounded because it was her older sister. So I

912
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: don't want to be the one to tell you for

913
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: four years apart, and I said, you you sound more

914
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 1: like like you sound like you're doing it. She sounded

915
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: like she was doing a caricature of my mother. What

916
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 1: was her name, Aunt Sandy. I'm here to tell you

917
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:29,719
Speaker 1: that Aunt Sandy is your mother. I don't think so.

918
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 1: I hate to be the bear called me up. I

919
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: swear to got my aunt's and she goes like, I

920
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: go hello, She goes, John, Yes, this is the aunt.

921
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,560
Speaker 1: She talked like, I go. I'd started laughing and go,

922
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 1: you sound more like my mom than my mom? Do I? Well?

923
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 1: And that's how my grandmother would talk. Are you an

924
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: only child? No? How dare you? I don't really talk

925
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 1: about my family though, because my personal life, because it's

926
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: personal and it's their lives, you see. So I don't

927
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 1: see John, I don't know which sibling you are the youngest.

928
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:14,520
Speaker 1: Of course, do you feel like you you know, I

929
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 1: know that's your voice. But do you feel like when

930
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 1: you've been other characters that you've been imitating people in

931
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,719
Speaker 1: your life or like getting inspiration from people in your life?

932
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, my mom, Woody Allen. I saw Take the

933
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,919

00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 1: I don't want to be an actor, but I should

935

942
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 1: to hang on on his sets and he'd never let

943
00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 1: anyone do that. And Brian's like, no, what do you

944

Speaker 1: was and I had these black glasses like him. I go,

950
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 1: I was always worried. People thought I would think I'm

951
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 1: just imitating you. I go, but didn't. I read you

952

958
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,799
Speaker 1: had no title that it's called small Time Crooks. But

959
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: when we were making it, there was no title. It

960
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: was just on the on the thing, w A F

961
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: T pete, what are you on? Fall project. I had

962
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: broken my leg skiing in April and that the premiere

963
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:55,240
Speaker 1: was like a month later, and I got an operation.

964
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,319
Speaker 1: So they're having the premiere and I go, I'm going,

965
00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 1: I'm not missing this for the world. I don't care

966
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 1: about my leg. So I was on crutches because I

967
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: broke my leg skiing that you are in the Olympic

968
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 1: trials and I qualified, but then I skied the next

969
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:11,759
Speaker 1: day broke my leg. And that's why you never saw

970
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 1: me in the Olympics. My mother used to say, if

971
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:21,880
Speaker 1: you know my grand Jamie. Listen, hey Jamie, how are you?

972
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:25,400
Speaker 1: I'm good, man, it can't be that much funny, And

973
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 1: until it just in one place, maybe that's not fair

974
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:32,160
Speaker 1: right there. I know he was asking me about the

975
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:35,480
Speaker 1: Great White Hype and then I said, I said, you

976
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,440
Speaker 1: know a funny story, Go, Jamie Fox is in it.

977
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,520

978
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,000

00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: he brought it up because I just ran in. I

995
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:27,759
Speaker 1: ran into a Reggie Hudling today. Yeah, at the bank.

996
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,840
Speaker 1: That movie was tough. That that premiere was tough. You know,

997
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 1: my favorite scene in the movie is you ain't my daddy?

998
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 1: Are you? Hey? Congrats Jamie. We were talking about you

1000
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,400
Speaker 1: that with us, and what I mean is anytime a

1001
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:49,560
Speaker 1: comedian can break through on that side, I shared that

1002
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: with all of us, man, because I still think I

1003
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,680
Speaker 1: still think it's a weird ship on our shoulders, and

1004
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,440
Speaker 1: like sometimes when you look at like you guys look

1005
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,759
Speaker 1: great and stuff, somehow perform sin since we are since

1006
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 1: we do coma so much, you know, funny sometimes you

00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,880
Speaker 1: know they sold the overlookers for man, Like yeah, but

1008
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 1: you're like, anytime we poked holes like that, man, that's

1009
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 1: for us to step through. Yeah, but you're kind of

1010
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 1: like hyper talented, like it's ridiculous. Man. Well, I appreciate it, man,

1011
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,320
Speaker 1: But like I said, Man, I'm always home. Well, I

1012
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:21,560
Speaker 1: don't know anyone that does characters like you did on

1013
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,760
Speaker 1: on on a Living Color you know, in Living Color,

1014
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 1: and then you do yourself, and then you do dramas,

1015
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 1: and then you sing at the highest level. And when

1016
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 1: you look at the highest it's like it soundelete. I mean,

1017
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 1: you're right. I remember I said, I did say that

1018
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 1: I saw Ray. I saw it. I saw it in

1019
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 1: my house and I said, I finally signed to go.

1020
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 1: Oh man, you should have won two oscars. That's how

1021
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 1: great you were. One for the music and one for

1022
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 1: the acting. I mean, it was unbelievable. Well man, I

1023
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,719
Speaker 1: thank you. But but you know what's interesting, Like when

1024
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 1: we were doing The Color, a lot of times I

1025
00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 1: wasn't the main guy when I first got there, so

1026
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 1: I would just work on characters, just staying in character

1027
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 1: and just working on them. And and Keenan taught me, like,

1028
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:04,399
Speaker 1: if you ain't great, you ain't nobody, you know, being

1029
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 1: a being, even being a black comedian. So I would

1030
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 1: always just try to like getting them characters and just

1031
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 1: just swing away so you know, it's looked. It just uh,

1032
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 1: it pays off sometimes, like I said, that's that's the

1033
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 1: payoff what happened on Sunday, man. But like I said,

1034
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 1: I shared with you guys, man, because the minute I

1035
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,960
Speaker 1: didn't see when you want congratulations, but did you was

1036
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 1: it like for was it for um? Like? I don't

1037
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:30,239
Speaker 1: know what it was? It for best voice over? I

1038
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 1: mean you were No, it's for best animated film. And

1039
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: it was the American lead and the Pixar film, so

1040
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 1: it was the first. There was a lot of first

1041
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 1: thing and you know what, at first, I didn't know,

1042
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 1: you know, first, I didn't know that there was no

1043
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 1: this thing as a black person not being in a

1044
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,359
Speaker 1: Pixar film. But because you know, when we was coming

1045
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:49,440
Speaker 1: through a living color, he was just doing our thing.

1046
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: I was never really asking on a question that we

1047
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 1: were doing our black thing. We're just doing our thing.

1048
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:56,840
Speaker 1: But I thought it was just great that they acknowledge

1049
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 1: that you're singing finding and finding Nemo. None of the

1050
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:08,440
Speaker 1: fish were African Americans. There no fish. There were no

1051
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,799
Speaker 1: black fish. It was a documentary that was not the same.

1052
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 1: What about what's that picture? Is that that charity kid?

1053
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 1: Right now? Where is Dave Brown at Dave Brennan and

1054
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 1: trying to cook you almost at the house, if you

1055
00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 1: know what they said, they either fifty either you take

1056
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:31,160
Speaker 1: fifty or fifty takes you teeth literally FaceTime and his

1057
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 1: daughter doesn't know the technology. The fishes smells like kerosene.

1058
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 1: Do you want to open the door? He said? Somebody

1059
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:41,680
Speaker 1: said the doors to know, to know, you need to

1060
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 1: do one thing, one thing. But I have I have

1061
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 1: a question for you about I haven't seen the Pixar movie.

1062
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: I want to see it. But this I said this

1063
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:54,480
Speaker 1: the other day, I said, you know movies that Robert Evans,

1064
00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:56,520
Speaker 1: the producer, used to say, you know, we'd make a

1065
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 1: movie and tell the studio how to sell it. Now

1066
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,440
Speaker 1: the sales team tells us how to sell it. So

1067
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 1: I go and then they don't work on the script

1068
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 1: and the story. And this I said, but pisarre there

1069
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,440
Speaker 1: are movies are always great because they really work on

1070
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 1: the story and the three acts or whatever, and they

1071
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,200
Speaker 1: work on it make it great. And did you find

1072
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 1: that with you? Which I haven't seen your movie, but

1073
00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 1: did you find that that the story was like, oh,

1074
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 1: this is such a great story. I got to be

1075
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: honest with you. It's sort of like you're in the

1076
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:26,000
Speaker 1: dark a little bit, because it's it's they have their vision.

1077
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 1: So I would go into booth. First of all, I

1078
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 1: was doing facial expression. It's like Pete doctors like Jamie,

1079
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:35,760
Speaker 1: we don't we don't see your face. We just and so.

1080
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 1: But they started like they would even feel me doing

1081
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 1: like some of the acts of the stuff and sort

1082
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:42,360
Speaker 1: of like put it together with it. But you really

1083
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 1: don't know, man. But one thing I can tell you

1084
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 1: about Pete Doctor, he's a genus. I mean, think about

1085
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:49,720
Speaker 1: all the oscars that he's one, and then with Kim

1086
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 1: Powers and Dana Murray and then that whole incredible cast. Man,

1087
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 1: you don't know what you know. And once when I

1088
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 1: tell you it came out and it was you know,

1089
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 1: I think it's like over two billions dreams now the

1090
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 1: highest over two billion. It's crazy. So you know, like

1091
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 1: I said, man, it's it's just it's just look man,

1092
00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 1: look us, man, we just keep we just keep falling,

1093
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,160
Speaker 1: We just keep coming. And then next thing, you know,

1094
00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,200
Speaker 1: it's gonna be us, all of us in the open

1095
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 1: man doing the thing called It's time. It's time supposed

1096
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:21,920
Speaker 1: to bring comedy back. I saw someone when it was

1097
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 1: talking about like like we gotta we gotta sound me

1098
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:29,320
Speaker 1: along them like we're still entertainers. Was still playing characters.

1099
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 1: I know they were talking about people playing characters and

1100
00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:35,680
Speaker 1: and I think they're taking it too seriously, like somebody

1101
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:37,880
Speaker 1: who's doing another character where they had the game weight

1102
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:39,800
Speaker 1: or they had to get smile with what it was.

1103
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:41,920
Speaker 1: But I'm like, that's what we do, you know, we

1104
00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: just want to keep the entertainment, you know, right, I

01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: know what everyone's gonna take me seriously, Award winner, talk

1147
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:02,680
Speaker 1: to you like that, Russell. We deserve to know what

1148
01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 1: we're putting in our bodies and why, especially when it

1149
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 1: comes to something we take every day. Ritual is clean,

1150
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:12,520
Speaker 1: vegan friendly multi vitamin is formulated with high quality nutrients

1151
01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:16,080
Speaker 1: and bioavailable forms. Your body can actually use what you

1152
01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:21,400
Speaker 1: won't find sugars, GMOs, major allergen, synthetic fillers and artificial colorance.

1153
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,280
Speaker 1: Plus the fresh taste and delayed release capsule design make

1154
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 1: taking your vitamins easy. Sometimes supplements have that chalky taste,

1155
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 1: which I'm aware of, but ritual capsules are actually pleasant tasting.

1156
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 1: When you put them in your mouth, they're actually refreshing.

1157
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 1: It's helped me get in the habit of taking my

1158
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:41,040
Speaker 1: vitamins every day. I like putting tasty things in my mouth,

1159
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,479
Speaker 1: so if a vitamin is tasty, I'm just more likely

1160
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:48,040
Speaker 1: to take it. Ritual is the multi vitamin reimagined. A

1161
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 1: multi vitamin should contain key nutrients and forms your body

1162
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:54,120
Speaker 1: can actually use to help fill gaps in the diet.

1163
01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 1: No shady extras. Nobody likes a shady extra just standing there,

1164
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 1: not serving a purpose anyway. Ritual is delayed release capsule

1165

1188
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 1: I got a movie idea, great brown hype. I just

01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:57,000
Speaker 1: love the idea of you you guys ding brothers. I

1190
01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 1: agree that should do the movie twins over. We could

1191
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:05,160
Speaker 1: be we kind of do look alike a little. We

1192
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:09,280
Speaker 1: could say same mother and different fathers or vice version.

1193
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 1: You know, although I get very you know, I was

1194
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:18,200
Speaker 1: put up for a drop hand, and you become wealthy

1195
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,880
Speaker 1: on your own and he squanders the family inheritance. I

1196
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 1: think it'd be funny if I grew up in the hood.

1197
01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 1: But I still don't like John. You have to make

1198
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 1: a movie about what you don't have to make a

1199
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:37,200
