00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: Like early nineties, and uh, I think early nineties, yeah,

22
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: because I think I started acting like a little bit

23
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: late eighties when my father passed away. I think I

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: think actually early nineties because I think I met you

25
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: nine now before that, because Steve White introduced me to you,

26
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 1: all right, I mean here with my man, We've been

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: friends for a really long time. And when I started

28
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: doing this podcast, like it was like almost too easy,

29
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: because I already know that this podcast is going to

30
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: go down in podcast history because Nick Tuturo is my

31
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: guest and he's a real friend of mine, and I

32
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: consider you Nick, and I've said this to you before,

33
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: and I'm telling the millions and millions and millions and

34
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: millions of people that are listening, one of the funniest

35
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: people I know, thank you. And I still feel like

36
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: you haven't gotten your comedic do in show business. I

37
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: don't understand why, because I literally I I predicted one

38
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: point I will be under the table while we're doing this,

39
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: this Iron Wrap Corps podcast with Nick Tturro, this all

40
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: Nick to Turo episode. Um, I predicted at one point

41
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: I will be under the table, because that's I've never

42
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: not had a conversation with you in person, and or

43
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: on the phone, sometimes even on text where I hysterically laugh. Yeah, well,

44
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, people have for years have

45
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: said I'm funny. Funny. Guys should have my own my brother.

46
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: Other people said, you're on show. I used to go

47
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: and let him in. Years ago when I was on

48
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: NYPT Blue, people didn't even know the said, now, he's

49
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: really funny. This is nothing, This is nothing what he's about.

50
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: I had a few pilots that just missed by a hair.

51
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: I've just kind of like come missed by a hair.

52
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 1: Like everybody knows I'm really funny. Thinks I'm really funny.

53
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 1: On the street, they think I'm hilarious. People stop me

54
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: and go, man, you're funny, you're a funny guy. You're

55
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: a comedian, right, I don't know. I'm not a comedian.

56
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,239
Speaker 1: I'm not a comedy. Have you ever done stand up? No?

57
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: I never did stand up? You know, I've never thought

58
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: about it. One time I was in the trailer recently

59
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: with some movie I was doing in Vegas with all

60
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: these stand ups, and I said, I don't know how

61
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: to do stand up. The guy goes, you just did

62
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. You just did it right, here, right, So

63
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: I probably, you know, if I had worked on it,

64
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: maybe because I tell stories. I mean I tell stories

65
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 1: with my brother and other people and make them laugh

66
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: and make them giggle. I'm not a comedian like a

67
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: joke teller. I'm a storyteller. I'm a guy that tells

68
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: real stories. Right, You're not a knock knock joke now,

69
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: I'm not a knock knock guy. But but you gotta

70
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: give me time to breathe. Once I breathe, and once

71
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: I get to it, people laugh, they giggle their ass off,

72
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: you know, because it's real, it's coming from Most of

73
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: my stuff comes from real ship. And and also I

74
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: think what you're at your funniest to me when when

75
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: when there's some sort of distress or frustration. Yeah, for instance,

76
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: I'll just throw this. I'm gonna I'm gonna let you

77
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: tell tell the story because this, this always brings a

78
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: It always brings U. I think, I think if you

79
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: don't know who Nick Deturo is. First of all, Nick

80
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: Deturo has been in tons and tons of films, Jungle Fever,

81
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: then a long run from the beginning of NYPD Blue

82
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: and then Fucking I mean, so many different things, so

83
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: many different movies. So so he's an actor. So do

84
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: people who do not know who you are now they're

85
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: probably be like, oh, yeah, what was the character? And

86
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: NYPD Blue James Martinez. Okay, so he was on there

87
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: from the from the get go. I almost didn't get

88
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: an audition for that because that wasn't like Puerto Rican

89
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: or Hispanic. You're obviously not Puerto Rican, You're I'm a Talian.

90
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: But everybody thought I was Puerto Rican because the way

91
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: you look. Yeah, because like I was the Puerto Rican

92
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: in my family. Everybody said, Nick's a pr My brothers say,

93
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: he's definitely Puerto Rican. So because I was dark and

94
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: I looked Hispanic, they didn't even want to read, you know.

95
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 1: And then the lady wouldn't let me in the room.

96
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: I forget her name. She was some some big casting lady.

97
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: And then we went over ahead and as my guy

98
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: Marty as it goes that don't worry, get you in,

99
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: and he got me in the room with Junie Lowry

100
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: and then they were in New York, all those guys

101
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: Bochco Milch. I was a doorman at the time, and

102
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: I went up doorman at the same moments on the

103
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: Park and then I started acting in the late eighties

104
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: early nineties, and then I would do a couple of jobs.

105
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: Did you do Jungle Fever before n White Pet Blue, Yes,

106

108
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,680

Speaker 1: racial obscenities to do the right thing. Explain that. Yeah,

110
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: I was an extra one night and I was supposed

111
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: John turo is Nick deturros b. If you haven't made that,

112
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: it's not just random that they both looked the same

113
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: and their both names. So John was in in do

114
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: the Right Thing and he played Peno and you were

115
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: hanging around. I was hanging around one day I went down.

116
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: It was after my father passed away. I was hanging

117
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 1: around in bed sty and I liked, you know, I said,

118
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: this looks looks like fun, as you know, And I

119
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: said that John should have got me something. He said, oh,

120
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: I didn't know you were interested. You know. Always I thought,

121
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: you know, I could have maybe got you a little part.

122
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: There was a bunch of Puerto Ricans, there was Hispanics.

123
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,239
Speaker 1: There was Italians, and I was, you know, just fooling

124
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: around with the idea of me because I'd done it earlier.

125
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: Quit college, got married, had a kid, had a long

126
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: I got derailed, and no one knows my history. I

127
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: got very derailed, and I got stuck with this hat

128
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: on my head. I was in front of the same erets.

129
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: I was like a star out there in front of

130
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: the hotel. But anyway, you were a straight up dorman.

131
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: I was a straight up doorman. But I had a

132
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: whole routine. I never was on the door. I was

133
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: down the block, I was in front of Mickey. I

134
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: was always all over the street that we look for

135
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: the doorman and said, where's the doorman. They said, see

136
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: that guy down there, that's him, that's the doorman. That's

137
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: the guy in front of Mickey Mantles. So I was

138
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: I was very you know, I had a whole thing

139
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: going on with the door. It was never just about

140
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 1: carrying the bags. It was always talking to people, kissing girls,

141
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: talking making friends. I was like a politician out there.

142
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,799
Speaker 1: That was my thing, you know. So when I met Spike,

143
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: I um, I was an extra. I think it was.

144
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: I took off a whole weekend I was canceled every

145
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: night until like Friday. Then I I shot Friday night

146
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: when it was burning the pizzeria. I was a cop

147
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: in there and I was hanging out with Danny and John.

148
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: It was a fun night. I just Danny. I was quiet.

149
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: It was just listen to Danny tells stories all night.

150
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: And then I was in the scene. I think I'm

151
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: supposed to go back on Monday, but it was like

152
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: fifty bucks. I was like, I wasted a whole freaking

153
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: weight for fifty bucks. You can curse on here too.

154
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: By the way, I could go right out, and I

155
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: encourage it because you are. I would say, you're five

Speaker 1: cursor curse. Oh you you're good. I'm up there. You

157
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,080

158
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: the best. I don't want to put that pressure on,

159
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: but you're so don't feel like just just feel told

160
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: like I mean, usually you could be naked, you could

161
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: take your clothes after this pocket like, just go I

162
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: got it. So so anyway, I didn't go back on Monday.

163
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: I didn't go back on Monday. And then Spike, I

164
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,119
Speaker 1: guess he has asked my brother. He said, what happened

165
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: to Nick, and my brother was like, well, you had

166
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: to go back to the the world. He was to go

167
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: to the world. Wasn't feeling well. Some ship, so he said,

168
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: Spike was asking for you. Said really, he lights your faith,

169
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: He lights your look. He was like, he was looking

170
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: at me. I remember he was looking at me in

171
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: the dark. Spike is like, stare at you. So it

172
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: was stare. But I don't know what if he would

173
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: notice anything. But that fall, about eight o'clock in the morning,

174
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: he called me Adam Blue Blue. He got my number

00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: I know, my brother said, he's writing a new movie,

211
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: It was in Mobida Blues. They were the club owners,

212
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: John and Nick. You guys were a fucking riot, Um

213
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: and Mo and Josh Josh Flapbush, the flash Flash brother

214
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: and so it was Nick and John. And that was

215
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: the first time you had like a real the first

216
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: time I really had a real part in a movie.

217
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: So it was a little petrified, to be honest, because

218
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: and it's with Denzel. Denzel Washington's in it and Wesley

219
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: Wesley Snipe and this is when Spike is and what

220
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: is one Spike was Spike. He's hot, hot, hot hot.

221
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: It was a little intimidating, you know, I mean, hey,

222
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: you know the guy's getting is like my brother's an

223
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: animal too. I remember when I we were working together.

224
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,439
Speaker 1: We would work on all dialogue and we would improvise

225
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: right ship in and then he would go, Okay, Nick,

226
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 1: take a nap, sleep now I write, And I laid

227
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,719
Speaker 1: down and sleep and John. Yeah, I mean you must

228
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: have been in heaven though you're working with your brother.

229
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: Who's who's John Tutory You're in a Spike Lee movie.

230
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: I mean, and obviously John's your older brother, right, I

231
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: mean you you there's gotta be a certain amount of like,

232
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: like you look up to him and all this stuff,

233
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: and so you must have just been like in heaven.

234
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: It was. It was. And then the thing is, you know,

235
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: you gotta hold your own you got you gotta actually

236
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,599
Speaker 1: prove yourself that you belong. Remember Denzel came in and

237
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 1: was laughing. I think I was out of my life

238
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: one time. And Denzel said, uh, and I can tell

239
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: us that this fucking guy is the real deal. He's

240
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 1: I said to my brother at the table, read who

241
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: is this guy? Wow, he's gonna this guy is gonna

242
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: be a big star. Nick, what what did you What

243
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: did you mean? Like? What what was it about him

244
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: that you remembered? Obviously? Like so this is pre for me.

245
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: One of the one of the many things that Spike

246
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: Lee did was he made Denzel a sex symbol, and

247
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 1: Mobile of Blues was the first time on film that

248
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: he was treated as a leading man, and he made

249
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: him into like a star, like you know, his looks,

250
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: his charisma, the way he dressed in that movie, Like

251
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: Spike saw like this guy is not just a great actor,

252
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: he's a star and he's a sex and Spike had

253
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: the foresight to do that. So but this is before

254
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 1: he was like huge, huge, huge, it was. I think

255
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: it was after he won the Oscar for um the

256
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: fucking movie, the great movie where he was he played

257
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: the slave It's Glory, Glory. I think it was after that.

258
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 1: Um but but maybe but but I mean this is

259
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: the film a bid Booze where he was treated like

260
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: a like a like he was shot and treated and

261
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 1: dressing he was the star of the film. So what

262
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: do you remember like about him? Like what like like,

263
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I remember about him. I I

264
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: immediately saw how incredibly intense he was, but how focused

265
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: he was and just how you know, charismatic and imposing

266
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: and his like the guy looked like he had this

267
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: and you could tell when someone's coming with like wild

268
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: will I had I had good I always had a

269
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: good eye. I had a good ear, a good eye.

270
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: Like when I first worked with Caruso, I knew Red

271
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: Dog was like bringing it. And I'm not saying he

272
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: was Denzel, but I said, you know, when I saw him,

273
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: I said wow, immediately, like my George dropped. David Caruso, Yeah,

274
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I was just making that comparison. He was

275
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: pretty intense and the things. When I saw a Denzel,

276
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: I said, wow, this guy is this guy is like

277
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 1: he's impressive. Good thing. I didn't think too hard when

278
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: he was doing the scene because I might have, like

279
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: really like, I said, wow, I don't think I could

280
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: act with this guy. I've never been in the movie,

281
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: so you know. And then like you know, we had

282
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: some funny lines. He came in. He was looking for

283
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: a raise and I was like, you know, if we

284
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: had it, we get it to you. And he was like,

285
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: you motherfucker's are funny. I was like, but I wasn't

286
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: thinking about it, but I said, wow, I was just

287
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: when I saw him, my George dropped, and I was

288
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: I was just impressed by the whole package. The way

289
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 1: he carried himself, his look is the mean. I mean,

290
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 1: guy was a stud and he was intense and so professional.

291
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: I was out of my light. And then he told

292
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 1: me move over this way. Nick, my brother goes see that.

293
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: Then I was looking out for you. Nick tells you

294
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 1: getting me a light. That's nice. You know. The guy

295
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: was being nice to me. Probably knew way, you know,

296
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: he's a new the kids and knew coming as a rookie.

297
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 1: But he wasn't like doing it in and then something.

298
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: He was very nice about it. And and I remember

299
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: then I saw him later with Malcolm X. I had

300
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: to put him in a toilet. He was funny because

301
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: he goes, what does he do? Always make sure we're racist? Nick,

302
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: I go, I know this fucking guy. All he wants

303
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: to do is make me racist. Now you know, I

304
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: hate everybody. So I was like he was laughing and stuff.

333
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: so you let me know before Jungle Fever. So I

334
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: started getting pumped up about it thinking about it. We

335
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: rehearsed for like a month. I bought my own clothes.

336
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: I took everybody to to Benson Hers. I was walking

337
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: around with black girls. People are staring at me. So

338
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: I was preparing for that movie, so that by the

339
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: time I juggle, I was so fucking focused and that movie,

340
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: even my brother goes your focus was off the wall.

341
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: I was. I was because I was hungry, you know,

342
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: I was hungry. And I was because basically Spike told me, hey,

343
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: you know what, you could do this, you know what

344
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: I mean. He was giving me the confidence to go

345
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: out there, and then taking a few classes, started got

346
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: a little agent. So I started really like believing, while

347
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: let me see if I can, if I could, maybe

348
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: maybe I could do this, Maybe I could make a

349
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: living at this, you know, just make my own way.

350
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: I was trying to make my own way. And Spike,

351
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: you know, really he gave a lot of people chances.

Speaker 1: what what do you mean? What do you mean? I go,

629
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: they took the blue and the arms from the Giants

630
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 1: and the Dodgers. Those were New York teams. They left

631
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: New York. So the Mets are the bastard. Like if

663
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,440

Speaker 1: my worst fear comes true. A lot of times my

671
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,960

694
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,440

759
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: one point? Like what's the deal with the Deters? Nick Cook?

760
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 1: Nick's one of the first men when we first connected

761
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 1: that I knew because I grew up in a home

762
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 1: my father could not cook. He took care of us

763
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: and and and he he gave us food, but it

764
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: wasn't like anybody would eat it except for people that

765
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: like hadn't eaten all day. Me and my brother ate

766
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 1: the food and that was it. I think I heard

767
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: you're talking about what did he cook? He just his

768
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 1: his his big meal, like raised by his father, lived

769
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: mostly with my father. My father and my mother. But

770
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: my mother could could your mother cook? She could cook?

771
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,879
Speaker 1: She she? I mean, I love my mom. My mom

772
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: loves you, Nick. She's gonna be so excited. Listen. I'm

773
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: not gonna say my mom is gonna be on a

774
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: cooking show and win an award. But she could get

775
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 1: the job done. My father, what did he make? The

776
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 1: thing he was most proud of is he would he

777
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 1: would take riga tony, he would heat it up. He

778
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: would boil it. You mean he boiled the pasta. Boil

779
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,720
Speaker 1: a pasta right as you should. Then when the pasta

780
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: was done, he would take the rag ou out of

781
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 1: the jar, stir it right into the sauce, so he

782
00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't even heat the pasta. The sauce up cold. Well,

783
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: when you mix the you know, it would be out

784
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: of the jar, so it would be room temperature. So

785
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: he would mix it into the warm pasta, so the

786
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 1: sauce would get heated from there. And then he would

787
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 1: take a chuck steak with no seasoning from the oven

788
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 1: that he cooked. He cut that up, throw that into

789
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: the ball. You know what that is? You know what

790
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: that is? It's white people. Yeah, that's like white people. No, No,

791
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: that might get wrong, but that's like, you know what

792
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Jews, normal Jews can cook. No, a

793
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: lot of Jewish people know how to cook. Not my

794
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: father's not one of those Jews and the Italians. But

795
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: I mean you would think Jewish from New York Jews. No,

796
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: this is this is I think at the point that

797
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: he started doing this was part of throwing in the

798
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 1: towel because me and my brother were driving him so nuts.

799
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: Like and then he what he would do is he

800
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,319
Speaker 1: would knock on my bedroom door and he would be

801
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 1: on the floor outside the door like prison. And and

802
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: he was like, I made the pasta with the steak.

803
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:55,560
Speaker 1: He was proud of that. Had he make the steak

804
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 1: and then under the under the oven for the first

805
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 1: for nine minute to be there. I mean the steak steak,

806
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 1: chuck steake, no season and cut up and that was

807
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 1: the meal of the week. You you didn't you have

1022
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 1: he was very competitive, but with me, I guess he

1023
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 1: felt like I wasn't a threat. And I was very innocent.

1024
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 1: And I said, day Dave, if you think I'm you

1067
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 1: I understand you fucking laugh. Then it stopped. Then it

1068
00:50:55,680 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 1: started again. Windows being blown out, walls come like a

1069
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 1: guy coming into your bedroom and a Matt truck he

1070

1111
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: were taking me further and further. My mother was furious

1112
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,000
Speaker 1: with them. I got caught in an undertowe. I had

1113
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,719
Speaker 1: to carry me in. I thought my whole life was

1114
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 1: going in and then not experience where it was like

1115
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 1: a life and death life and death. If anyone can

00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,720
Speaker 1: there was no real damage. I had a scary experience

1122
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,200

1180
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,960
Speaker 1: but this country needs somebody to shake things off. They

1181
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 1: do political correctness, all this bullshit, this terrorism. You don't

Speaker 1: funk all the political but like, like all the thing

1186
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:30,560
Speaker 1: about him is that he speaks in Lehman's terms and

1187
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 1: and people he's not a politician exactly. But look what

1188
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 1: they they talk in circles. You can't follow them. Can

1189
00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 1: you follow what they said? You had one guy who

1190
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:41,759
Speaker 1: was a retaught but hilarious for eight Then you have

1191
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,520

1192
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 1: kind of he's kind of so often he's bright. I

1193
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: like him, but he's not tough. He's not a tough guy.

1194
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,799
Speaker 1: And they need, you know, Hillary's guys. Rogue Nick. It's

1195
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 1: like it's if you and me were in there and

1196
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 1: we had like a consultant. It'd be like if you

1197
00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 1: and me, but you know, in the country, what do

1198

1201
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,359
Speaker 1: this Congress ship. But they need somebody that's gonna come

1202
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 1: in and say we ain't fucking around no more. You know,

1203
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,920
Speaker 1: even if he's got a rug and a wig and

1204
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 1: the lips and whatever. I think he's hilarious for Trump. Yeah,

1205
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 1: I worked for a man he owned. He owned the St.

1206
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 1: Marinz at one time. He I was his doorman. When

1207
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:28,320
Speaker 1: he met Mala, I was I used to you know,

1208
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 1: they was they said, that's his niece and all this ship.

1209
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 1: I was his I was his cover man. Are you serious? Yeah?

1210
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 1: When he saw in the eighties and nineties, when he

1211
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: saw me on TV, he was like, I'm so proud

1212
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,280
Speaker 1: of you. I'm so proud that Trump is the Trump.

1213
00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 1: Thank you, buddy. Because I was his doorman for a

1214
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: short while. He owned the St. Marinz and then he

1215
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: moved in some hillbilly and then he married her. You know,

1216
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 1: her name was Marla Maples and and uh and Trump

1217
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:53,720
Speaker 1: used to come out and I think at the beginning

1218
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 1: is to say that was his niece or some ship.

1219
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 1: But what happened. Maybe I was part of his uh,

1220
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: you know, his whole thing. Hey everybody, you know, yeah,

1221
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 1: everybody's got a thing. I didn't listen. I kept my

1222
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,560
Speaker 1: mouth shut. I never said anything. I'm just you know.

1223
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 1: But I know Trump. I know Trump from back then.

1224
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 1: I mean my dad knew Fred Trump, but was his

1225
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 1: His father was a builder, but he didn't like you know,

1226
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,040
Speaker 1: Trump made it big, became a star. But it's just

1227
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:17,640
Speaker 1: something about him that makes me laugh. But now I

1228
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 1: actually think he's got a chance. I actually think he's

1229
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 1: gotta he has. He has a chance. You look at

1230
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,440

1231
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 1: they're not. He has. He absolutely a hundred has a

1232
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: chance to be running for president, isn't I like? I

1233
00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 1: like Barry Sam with his name Bernie. Bernie makes me laugh.

1234
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 1: He's old. But I like an old Jew. But I

1240
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,360

Speaker 1: like the fucking general manager. She's like gonna Bill's gonna

1242

01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:29,400
Speaker 1: so The Longest Shard, which is which is a terrific movie. Yes,

1291
01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:32,120
Speaker 1: So I'm on the set with rappers, I'm on the

1292
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 1: set with football players, I'm on the set with wrestlers,

1293
01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 1: I'm on the set with comedians. Almost broke my fucking

1294
01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 1: foot the first of the second day, so I had to.

1295
01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 1: I had to prevail because you know, it was a

1296
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:46,120
Speaker 1: nice opportunity and I had a small part originally like

1297
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 1: nothing on paper. But then Sandler saw me doing some

1298
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 1: stuff and he said, dude, you're funny. You're fucking funny.

1299
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:55,040
Speaker 1: I thank you, and then he kept handing the ball.

1300
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:57,240
Speaker 1: You don't have to total say that, have to Torot

1301
01:01:57,400 --> 01:01:59,480
Speaker 1: say this because I kind of went in with an idea,

1302
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:03,479
Speaker 1: had an idea for yourself. My brother said, go in there,

1303
01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:05,880
Speaker 1: going there, you know, and showing me a fucking funny

1304
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 1: because he'll see that, he'll see that you're funny, and

1305
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 1: he'll pick up on it. And he was right. He

1306
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:14,120
Speaker 1: saw it, and he handed me the ball. Every time

1307
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,959
Speaker 1: he handed me, I fucking scored, scored, you know, because

1308
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,360
Speaker 1: at the beginning it was really nothing, and it became

1309
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 1: like a cult, I mean, huge character. I mean, I'm unbelievable.

1310
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:26,960
Speaker 1: It's ten years now and that Brucey guy. I could

1311
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 1: almost make a show about this guy and kids, kids,

1312
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 1: kids love him. They're obsessed with the guy that that

1313
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,240
Speaker 1: it's Brucey, Bruscy bad, that's the man, Brucey. You guys

Speaker 1: talking in Germany goes, look at you in German, look

1317
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 1: at you, because they worked good in that language. It's

1318
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 1: a harsh language. I was like, oh wow, the guy's

1319

Speaker 1: doing me in German. You know, you know that language.

1320
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 1: I would laugh at my ass off. But it was

1321
01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 1: it was. It was a wild movie. A lot of

1322
01:02:55,680 --> 01:03:00,120
Speaker 1: people running around and girls everywhere, people smoking pot. But

1323
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 1: I kept my I kept my ship together. I was focused.

1324
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 1: People were smoking weed. Yeah, I don't want to get

1325
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 1: you know, and I'm just saying, like man, I was.

1326
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 1: I was focused, said I'm here to do a job. Man.

1327
01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:11,600
Speaker 1: Almost broke my foot the first day. I fell off

1328
01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,440
Speaker 1: a big black eyes back. I crashed on the ground.

1329
01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:16,880
Speaker 1: And then the next scene when Chris rocks on the ground,

1330
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:20,120
Speaker 1: they stopped on my fucking fingers. And I said, ah,

1331
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 1: and Adam said, this poor kid, I said, Adam, they

1332
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 1: stepped on my fingers. First, they broke my foot. Now

1333
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:27,640
Speaker 1: they stopped on my fucking fingers. I was getting beat

1334
01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:30,000
Speaker 1: up so bad in that movie, but I used it

1335
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 1: in the character. I was in a lot of pain,

1336
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 1: and it came out of my eyes. I think it

1337
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:35,480
Speaker 1: came at him from my foot. It came out of

1338
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 1: my eyes because I looked bugged out. I had a

1339
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:39,640
Speaker 1: nice hair cut. I had this haircut and wine in

1340
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,560
Speaker 1: the back of my hair. It was. It was really

1341
01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 1: a blast, really a blast. And then you know, all

1342
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,240
Speaker 1: these guys I wouldn't shower with them, because you know,

1343
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,600
Speaker 1: to intimidate too large, and we're like, what are you

1344
01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:51,760
Speaker 1: gonna on the shower? Come on, baby, come on. And

1345
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:54,840
Speaker 1: this guy's are too big and too massive physical human beings.

1346
01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,520
Speaker 1: I can't be walking around naked, So I can't be

1347
01:03:57,800 --> 01:03:59,440
Speaker 1: in the shower nude with these people. I have to

1348
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 1: keep some some of my ego because they're just too big.

1349
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 1: Too much time. They picked me up when they see me,

1350
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,040
Speaker 1: these guys, they put me in bad hugs. I saw
