25
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: he's at Zany's a lot of shows coming up. We

26
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: got one tonight at seven thirty, show on Friday at

27
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: seven thirty, shows on Saturday, six thirty and eight thirty. Okay, boy,

28
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: where all I start? I've read that you started out

29
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: as an actor, now you're a stand up comedian, but

30
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: I'm not buying that you've always been an entertainer. When

31
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: was the first official time you were on stage as

32
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: a stand up?

33
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 2: John Lovitz, Well, my college dorm. I I you know,

34
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: I saw when I was thirteen, I saw Woody Allen's

35
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: first movie, Take the Money and Run. And that's when

36
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: I first thought I want to be a comedian like

37
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 2: Woody Allen. And then and then when I was sixteen,

38
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: the movie Lenny came out about Lenny Bruce, starring Dustin Hoffman,

39
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: and I saw that I'd never heard of Lenny Bruce,

40
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 2: so he's a great stand up. So I went and

41
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: bought his albums. And then I discovered Woody Allen had

42
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 2: been a stand up, and I would learn their routines

43
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 2: and perform in my college dorm. I went to use

44
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: her irvine. So I guess that'd be the first time.

45
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,919
Speaker 3: Really okay, And not only that you're a star maker.

46
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 3: True or false?

47
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: You John Lovetz are a star maker. Here's my point,

48
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: Lisa Kudrou. And let's not forget about Phil Hartman. He's

49
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: passed away, one of the great comic legends of our time.

50
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: But you endorse these two, I hear. I mean, rumor

51
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: has it you told Lorden Michaels about Phil Hartman?

52
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 2: Well? Yeah, well Phil, you had told you said you

53
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 2: were in the groundings. Phil had been in the groundings

54
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 2: for eleven years. But after my first year on SNL,

55
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: they wanted, uh, they kept they wanted a new casts cast.

56
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 2: They kept myself and Dennis Miller and Norah Donne, and

57
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 2: then they said, we want people you work well with.

58
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: So I recommend four people from the growndings, and Phil

59
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 2: was one of them. And I said, I said, Laura,

60
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,239
Speaker 2: I go look it. If you think I'm good, you

61
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 2: should see Phil. He's the genius. He's amazing, He's I go,

62
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 2: he's way better than me. And I really looked it.

63
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 2: Phil is like my older brother, and I really idolized her,

64
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: looked up to him and and Lauren, and it was

65
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 2: tough Lauren didn't want him. At first. Loan goes, well, John,

66
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 2: how long has he been in the growndings. I said

67
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 2: eleven years. He goes, well, then, don't you think there's

68
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: and he hasn't made it. Don't you think there's a reason?

69
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: And I said, I guess, but I don't know. And

70
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: I thought about it and and and it was because Phil.

71
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: He didn't want it. He didn't want to be famous.

72
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: He didn't want to you know. He liked his life

73
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: and he does. I don't want to be any fame.

74
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 2: But failure so great. Anyway, he ended up Charles. We

75
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 2: did a movie with Charles Groden and who recommended both

76
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: of us to Lauren and Lorraine Newman recommended both of us,

77
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: and Phil auditioned that it's online, you can see us.

78
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: And then he got he got the show and he

79
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 2: turned it down. And then I said, you turned it down,

80
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 2: but why you know? And then he changed his mind

81
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 2: and did it. And I said to him, oh, did

82
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: you change your mind because of me? And he's like, no, oh, well,

83
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: why why do you change your mind? He was, Oh,

84
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 2: Joel Silver, we dine this movie for Penny Marshall jump

85
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: Jack Flash Sure and I'd introduced him to Joel. I

86
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: was friends with Joel, and he said, Joel called me

87
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: and said, you're crazy, you got to do it, and

88
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: so so he did it. You know. Of course, of

89
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: course I missed him, like.

90
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I don't even want to get into that. But yeah,

91
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: one of the great comics. Well, I mean yeah, and

92
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: then Lisa.

93
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was a real genius. And Lisa Kudro. I

94
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 2: grew up with her family. Her brother David is my

95
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: best friend, and some eleven. So when I was in college,

96
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: she's like six years younger than me, and she was

97
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 2: asking me about acting. I was a drama major and

98
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 2: I was about twenty and she was fourteen, and I

99
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: got her book. But then when I got Saturday Night Live,

100
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: she said, I want to get into acting and and

101
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 2: she said she's because she knew me so well. And

102
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 2: I did it, so she thought, well, it's possible then

103
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: because before she thought, she said, she thought it was impossible.

104
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 2: So she said what should I do. I said, well,

105
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: go to the groundlings, And I said, I learned more

106
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 2: there than anywhere, or that's what she said, I said,

107
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 2: which I did learn it. I learned a lot in

108
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 2: college too, but I learned a ton there, so she

109
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: went and then but she did it on her own,

110
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 2: and you know it took her ten years before she

111
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 2: really finally started.

112
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 3: But you watched it all though you watch it, you said, hey.

113
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: Cose I inspired her.

114
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 3: And then the Friends thing, however, of course we know

115
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:53,239
Speaker 3: your character Stets.

116
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well then I did Friends because I'd done a

117
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 2: movie with Courtney Cox in nineteen eighty eight and became

118
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 2: friends with her. So now ninety four, so Lisa and

119
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 2: Courtney called me and said, hey, we have this new

120
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 2: show which you guests are on it. And I thought

121
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 2: it'd be fun for Lisa's parents, who were like my parents,

122
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: to see us working together. I did it.

123
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 3: Oh, it's a great story.

124
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 2: John Love.

125
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 4: It's in studio with us right now. One show tonight,

126
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 4: one show tomorrow, two shows on Saturday at Zany's. Out

127
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 4: of all the movies you've been in, which by far

128
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 4: has been your favorite one to do, like, there's been

129
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 4: a League of their Own, there's been Rat Race, Grown Upstart.

130
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: Oh, they were all fun. I mean they were all,

131
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: you know, fun for different reasons. And I mean League

132
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 2: of their Own that was really fun.

133
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 3: You know.

134
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: I loved baseball and I love old movies from the forties.

135
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 2: And then there's all these beautiful women on the set,

136
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: so that like the three things I love acting, baseball

137
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 2: and women. Perfect perfect, And it was a great part

138
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 2: that was fun. Like wedding singer. I had a cameo

139
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 2: and Adam Sandler hadn't had a big hit and he

140
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: called me and he goes, hey, can you do me

141
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: a favor? You know it's just one, but you'll sing

142
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 2: and do barrymorees in it. So he said, well, let

143
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 2: me think about it. I don't know his is just

144
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 2: a favor in it. So then I called them back.

145
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: I said, I said, you know, I was thinking about it.

146
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: I go, you're singing. I can sing in a movie,

147
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 2: right because yeah, I go, yeah, I go, what's wrong

148
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 2: with me? I'd love to do that. That would be

149
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 2: really fun.

150
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 3: Okay, I gotta go on this. Because we're talking about singing.

151
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying John Lovets, great entertainer, been doing it for years,

152
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: doesn't get nervous. But I'm gonna disagree with myself in there,

153
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: because I'm betting you were nervous when you sing the

154
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: national anthem at the US Open and the Dodger game,

155
