Speaker 2: affiliates around the country overing ovary ovaries, Huh.
Speaker 3: What What's on my mind?
Speaker 2: Over four hundred radio affiliates around the country eight seven
Speaker 2: to seven three. DP show email address s Dpadanpatrick dot Com,
Speaker 2: Twitter handle at DP show pull question for the final
Speaker 2: hour of this Friday program.
Speaker 4: Dylan, Yeah, Dan, Well, I just threw up one and
Speaker 4: then we've got one more that I think we can
Speaker 4: kind of chop up. But I put up Todds, which
Speaker 4: would you like most like to make people do laugh, cheer,
Speaker 4: sing and dance, or make people smarter. There's only four
Speaker 4: possible slots. Seventy four percent say make people laugh, okay.
Speaker 4: And then we were talking about the Bulls, so I
Speaker 4: was kind of thinking, is there any team in history,
Speaker 4: in any sport that rivals the Bulls fame? I don't
Speaker 4: know what the word you'd use, fame.
Speaker 3: I guess fandom.
Speaker 2: Fandom, Yeah, because you had fans in other arenas that
Speaker 2: when they wanted to see the Bulls be great. And
Speaker 2: I don't remember any other team except for the Harlem
Speaker 2: Globetrotters where everywhere they went they were being rooted for
Speaker 2: the greatest two words in sports. Game seven Wemby and
Speaker 2: the Spurs SGA in the thunder one game to go
Speaker 2: to the NBA Finals winner go home. That'll be tomorrow.
Speaker 2: It's seven thirty Eastern on NBC and Peacock. Oh look
Speaker 2: who is back? My goal is not to get him
Speaker 2: in trouble this time around. He's Austin Rivers, NBC sports analyst.
Speaker 5: Wait a minute, man, the storm you brew up last
Speaker 5: time I was here? My goodness, Wait, what's that about?
Speaker 5: What was that storm.
Speaker 3: I don't remember.
Speaker 6: I remember I went from peace to war very quickly.
Speaker 6: All as cooled, all is cooled off.
Speaker 2: Okay, is it just a coincidence that when the Spurs
Speaker 2: play well or Wenby plays well, the Spurs win. When
Speaker 2: Sga plays well, the Thunder win.
Speaker 7: Now the two best players of the team, they are
Speaker 7: the head of the snake. I thought, Wendy just did
Speaker 7: a fantastic job last night just being aggressive. I know
Speaker 7: some of his first few shots were like deep threes,
Speaker 7: but it was the non hesitation in his game that
Speaker 7: I liked. How sure he was, he came out, he's
Speaker 7: let it fly. They were great, they were physical. If
Speaker 7: the Spurs play like that, it could be an interesting
Speaker 7: game set.
Speaker 2: And there's that I don't know who you played against,
Speaker 2: where there's they're omnipresent, like you know they're there, and
Speaker 2: they make you think consciously or subconsciously, they may get
Speaker 2: a piece of this shot.
Speaker 3: Was there somebody that you have?
Speaker 6: I think I.
Speaker 7: Think you have to give Gobert credit for that, you know,
Speaker 7: I mean, I think that's actually one of the things
Speaker 7: he did do well, or many things he did well defensively,
Speaker 7: But when he was.
Speaker 6: At like his prime, Rudy was a.
Speaker 7: Guy that, whether he was blocking the shot or not,
Speaker 7: when you drove to the basket, you had to at
Speaker 7: least see where he was at, and he altered shots
Speaker 7: that way. He has he had a you know, an
Speaker 7: impact on the defensive side. So not to this level,
Speaker 7: we've never seen it. Obviously, what Wenby does is just like,
Speaker 7: I mean, the Alien is the best nickname I think
Speaker 7: fitting for this dude.
Speaker 6: But yeah, Rudy had a little bit of that for sure.
Speaker 2: Was there a market correction last night with SGA that
Speaker 2: he only shoots three free throws?
Speaker 7: No, because I've seen you know, I understand why people
Speaker 7: feel this way, and I get it that when he
Speaker 7: falls after every jump shot, it's it can be you know,
Speaker 7: hard to watch and other things. But I've called games
Speaker 7: this year where I've seen this guy make like fifteen
Speaker 7: to twenty field goals in a game.
Speaker 6: He's unbelievable as a basketball player.
Speaker 7: So I thought they did a great job defending and
Speaker 7: just coming out of the game with physicality, and they
Speaker 7: took the win out of Okay see okay, se hung
Speaker 7: around for most of the game until that third quarter
Speaker 7: and they just you know, they blew it.
Speaker 6: Wide open.
Speaker 7: And I think you heard it after the game with
Speaker 7: Shay's interview, He's like, I'm ready to go.
Speaker 6: I think these guys were already.
Speaker 7: I don't want to say they're planning for Game seven,
Speaker 7: but I think they went into that game last night,
Speaker 7: they put up a fight, and as soon as it
Speaker 7: turned they're like, let's go get it at home. This
Speaker 7: has been a tick for tech series. These two teams
Speaker 7: mirror each other. They do a lot of the same things. Actually,
Speaker 7: in every regard they're the same team.
Speaker 6: So this is the I mean, this has been the
Speaker 6: best series all playoffs.
Speaker 7: And you know, I do feel if OKAC wins, they
Speaker 7: have a stronger chance of winning the championship, whereas I
Speaker 7: feel like a San Antonio wins, the Knicks could be
Speaker 7: a thorn in their side in certain regards.
Speaker 6: And yeah, it's interesting how this will playoff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I keep saying, I hope the officials let
Speaker 2: certain moments play on and not call. There's certain moments
Speaker 2: where you just say, Okay, you know, let's go. And
Speaker 2: I see this more in the w NBA than I
Speaker 2: do the NBA. It feels like they do stop. You know,
Speaker 2: they're gonna give the benefit of the doubt and if
Speaker 2: I'm SGA, I go searching for fouls.
Speaker 3: I don't stop. I don't want to apologize for winning.
Speaker 8: Well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I think we'll probably see him more aggressive
Speaker 2: in game seven.
Speaker 3: You're at home.
Speaker 2: I would be surprised if he doesn't shoot more than
Speaker 2: ten free throws on Saturday.
Speaker 7: I yeah, the aggression will definitely be up. And in
Speaker 7: game seven, you go for it. You know, they did
Speaker 7: a great job of surrounding him. You got a corral, SGA.
Speaker 7: You can't let him operate in space. He has to
Speaker 7: continue to make the right play and they're okay with that.
Speaker 7: You have to be willing with Dort and Crusoe threes.
Speaker 7: I know Crusoe's playing out of his mind right now.
Speaker 7: We got to live with that, though, you know what
Speaker 7: I mean. Like Crusoe and Dort hit five threes each,
Speaker 7: four threes. You know, hey, listen, shake their hand, and
Speaker 7: we gave it our best. But like giving him, like
Speaker 7: you said, room to operate in him getting fourteen fifteen
Speaker 7: free throws, You're not gonna win that way. There's a
Speaker 7: proof history of when he plays that well and plays
Speaker 7: at that level and gets that many free throws, they
Speaker 7: win just about damn near every time, so that he
Speaker 7: has to continue to play in crowded space. Antonio did
Speaker 7: a fantastic job last night of doing that and just
Speaker 7: being physical with them, throwing different bodies at him. They
Speaker 7: had Carter Bryan on them, They had a cell on
Speaker 7: him at one point, obviously the main guy's castle. You
Speaker 7: just continue just to just throw fresh bodies at him,
Speaker 7: be physical.
Speaker 6: Hopefully he could wear down a little bit.
Speaker 7: We'll see though, you know how his game seven anything happened,
Speaker 7: Anything can happen.
Speaker 2: Talking to Austin Rivers, NBC Sports analysts, when your dad
Speaker 2: was coaching the Celtics, did you ever play pickup games
Speaker 2: with those guys?
Speaker 7: Sometimes it was more so like one on ones, Like
Speaker 7: I would play ones with guys before. This is when
Speaker 7: I got a little bit older, because at that time
Speaker 7: I was like probably like ninth grade, you know, eighth
Speaker 7: ninth grade when he was like a you know, towards
Speaker 7: the prime years of Boston. So I could play a
Speaker 7: little bit. At that point. It was only a few
Speaker 7: years away from like, you know, really being able to play.
Speaker 7: So those were good memories. I got some ones in
Speaker 7: some of those guys, for sure.
Speaker 2: Anybody as intense as Kevin Garnett in your life.
Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, that's like peak intense.
Speaker 7: Don't think there's anybody I've ever played against their scene
Speaker 7: in an NBA game be more intense, uh than Kevin Garnett.
Speaker 6: Uh so that he used to.
Speaker 7: Always scare me, you know, just when I was young,
Speaker 7: and then obviously when I became more of a fan
Speaker 7: of basketball, like I I was obsessed with.
Speaker 6: His, like just his aura, his his uh.
Speaker 7: His tenacious you know energy and what he brought to
Speaker 7: that Celtics team then eight Celtics team again, you could
Speaker 7: you know, Paul Pierce was the guy, but KG was
Speaker 7: the spirit of that team.
Speaker 6: And yeah, playing against him one on one was crazy.
Speaker 6: You know that story.
Speaker 2: Do you do you believe in analytics?
Speaker 9: I do?
Speaker 6: I do?
Speaker 8: I do?
Speaker 6: I don't don't, I don't.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 7: There's a difference between believing in him and living by them.
Speaker 7: You know, I I I believe in analytics. I'm not
Speaker 7: gonna full full fledged pledge to the point to where
Speaker 7: that only matters. There are things that numbers don't show.
Speaker 7: There is an eye test, there's a feel.
Speaker 6: Uh. You could watch a player and see if he
Speaker 6: has feel for the game.
Speaker 7: There are things that analytics just don't show, so you
Speaker 7: can't live and die by them, but they have to
Speaker 7: be a part of your process, especially just with the
Speaker 7: way the game has changed and how shooting has been
Speaker 7: implicated in just team success.
Speaker 6: So yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it feels like these two teams that are
Speaker 2: playing in the Western Conference finals aren't three point shooting teams.
Speaker 6: Correct?
Speaker 2: Correct, And I wonder we most leagues are copycat leagues.
Speaker 2: When you see a team win a championship, you're like, oh,
Speaker 2: maybe we can be the greatest show on turf, like
Speaker 2: the Saint Louis Rams, where we'll change our offense here.
Speaker 2: I don't know if this changes in approach if you
Speaker 2: know either one of these teams when the title, I
Speaker 2: mean it helps having SGA and Wemby, but still their
Speaker 2: philosophy is not married to the three point shot.
Speaker 6: It's not.
Speaker 7: It's contradicted everything the game has continued to press, right.
Speaker 6: I would say it's hard to copycat.
Speaker 7: You kind of nail on the head, Dan, It's hard
Speaker 7: to copycat a team that has at SGA, who's you know,
Speaker 7: a generational scorer. And then obviously with Wemby, is you
Speaker 7: definitely can't replicate that, right. Both these teams have hung
Speaker 7: their hat on being deep and having guys that could
Speaker 7: play two way basketball. All these teams have guys that
Speaker 7: can play both sides of the ball. Darren Fox is
Speaker 7: not a bad defender. He can play on both sides
Speaker 7: of the ball. Dylan Harper can play on both sides
Speaker 7: of the ball. We know what Castle can do on
Speaker 7: both sides of the ball. We know Wemby can do.
Speaker 7: Carter Bryant comes in and is mainly a defender. All
Speaker 7: these guys the Sail, all these dudes can play both
Speaker 7: sides of the basketball. When you go to the World
Speaker 7: the Thunder, it's the same thing. They have eight or
Speaker 7: nine guys who are two way players. We got so
Speaker 7: caught up in a rush of guys who could just
Speaker 7: shoot that like teams just went and Fountain guys that
Speaker 7: can just shoot, you know what I mean? And the
Speaker 7: three and D term is thrown around loosely. There's a
Speaker 7: lot of guys who are attached three and D and
Speaker 7: aren't even great defenders. The Thunder genuinely and San Antonio
Speaker 7: have two way players.
Speaker 8: Guys.
Speaker 7: They're just guys that can ball. So I think, to
Speaker 7: your point, yeah, you might see teams not be so like,
Speaker 7: you know, harping on whether a guy can shoot forty
Speaker 7: from three, if he's got talent, if he can play,
Speaker 7: if he can compete. Does he know how to play?
Speaker 7: Does he know how to move it out the ball?
Speaker 7: That's another thing. All all these teams are unselfish. He's
Speaker 7: how the ball pops around the premier both teams. Obviously,
Speaker 7: Shae's the scorer, so he's gonna shoot a lot of shots,
Speaker 7: but that ball flies around when it's not in his hands,
Speaker 7: and it's the same thing with San Antonio, you know.
Speaker 7: So I think that is what we're gonna see being
Speaker 7: more of a copycat. People talked about the purity of
Speaker 7: basketball being lost. I do think we're going back to
Speaker 7: an era of the ball moving around more instead of
Speaker 7: like the Lucas, you know, the the Trey Youngs.
Speaker 6: All these guys are remarkable players, right, But that style
Speaker 6: of play where you're dribbling like the air of the ball.
Speaker 7: You just don't with the exception of Shay, the ball
Speaker 7: really pops and you're seeing that with a lot of
Speaker 7: these teams.
Speaker 6: Indiana was kind of a.
Speaker 7: Secret to that last year when they popped up so
Speaker 7: multiple guys with the ball on the floor, multiple guys
Speaker 7: that could defend.
Speaker 2: If I said you had to get a two and
Speaker 2: I'm gonna you pick, and the guys still left. If
Speaker 2: I give you a brunch in an SGA, you need
Speaker 2: it too, game on the line, you needed.
Speaker 6: To man, that's so tough. Man.
Speaker 7: Brunson's so damn good down the stretch man, It's like
Speaker 7: it's impossible to like not pick him just because what
Speaker 7: we've seen.
Speaker 11: And yet I still I have to go with the
Speaker 11: guy who's I gotta go to the MVP man For
Speaker 11: a multitude of reasons. It's close. First off, there's no
Speaker 11: wrong answer because Brunston is probably my favorite player in
Speaker 11: the NBA just his foot work.
Speaker 7: But Shay's taller can always get a shot off no
Speaker 7: matter what not that you see brunsdon get a shot
Speaker 7: blocked at any time, but shaken at least get a
Speaker 7: shot off whenever. And I know with the foul baiting stuff,
Speaker 7: at the very worst, I'm getting maybe two free throws
Speaker 7: with the guy.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, Like he's to get a
Speaker 6: clean look or he's getting to the line.
Speaker 7: So that's that's where I would have to probably just
Speaker 7: go Shay. I think they're one and two in the
Speaker 7: NBA in terms of clutch?
Speaker 3: Are you and Draymond? Okay?
Speaker 6: Now, I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 7: You know what, man, me and him have always had
Speaker 7: like a little you know whatever. When we played, we'd
Speaker 7: always talk a lot versus each other for whatever reason.
Speaker 6: We'd extra then like somebody else.
Speaker 12: Uh.
Speaker 7: And that no surprise carried over to to the events
Speaker 7: following your show. And Dan, I don't wish any negativity
Speaker 7: upon him. I wish him all the best in his life.
Speaker 7: I stand by everything I said. I don't take anything back.
Speaker 2: But you were being an analyst. He was being personal.
Speaker 3: That's correct.
Speaker 6: That's how he responds.
Speaker 7: You know, like when we talk basketball, I'll talk about
Speaker 7: black and white, he'll go personal. It's like when said,
Speaker 7: you know, how are you guys gonna uh, you know,
Speaker 7: you guys are getting older? How are you guys going
Speaker 7: to defeat father time? You know what's the plan? Well,
Speaker 7: the plan is not to look like you know Houston
Speaker 7: Jert It wasn't. He never responded to the question.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he went.
Speaker 6: Personal with chu. You know, say, that's what he does.
Speaker 6: He goes personal, so well, I woke up the next.
Speaker 7: Day or two days later and had a full on
Speaker 7: three minute video about myself, just dissecting my career. I
Speaker 7: was just like, you know what, and I I responded
Speaker 7: with my video and that did what it did.
Speaker 6: But you know, I still kept it. I still kept
Speaker 6: it light.
Speaker 7: I could have went, I could have went, you know
Speaker 7: what I mean, Like, that's that I don't like to
Speaker 7: be messy, and that's that who I am. I have
Speaker 7: respect for Draymond despite whatever we feel about each other.
Speaker 6: But yeah, I still out when I said, ain't nothing changed.
Speaker 3: Well, you can be all defense, but he's all defensive.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I mean my main point was like, I've never heard
Speaker 7: Dennis Robin be like you know, Phil, I wish I
Speaker 7: was more of a focal point in the offense.
Speaker 6: You know he was.
Speaker 7: Dennis Robbin is a Hall of Famer for what he
Speaker 7: did in his role. He was a superstar in his role.
Speaker 7: Don't get that confused with being the super star. There's
Speaker 7: a difference, right, That's common sense. That's all I was
Speaker 7: alluding to. When he said the Steve Kerr comments, he
Speaker 7: obviously got in his feels and went personal instead of
Speaker 7: responding to what I said. We all know what I
Speaker 7: said was the truth because that's the reality of the situation.
Speaker 6: And he has nothing to be ashamed of.
Speaker 7: That's why he's in the Hall of Fame, man, that's
Speaker 7: why he's made over two hundred million dollars. You know,
Speaker 7: he should be smiling and be happy that he's had
Speaker 7: such a great career and that he's done great things
Speaker 7: for the game of basketball instead of like trying to
Speaker 7: fight who he is. That's you know, it's all good, man.
Speaker 7: So we all have those those identity issues, you know,
Speaker 7: saying you.
Speaker 8: Know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6: It's all good, bro. I got down in love and respect.
Speaker 7: He's reached height set every basketball player, including myself in
Speaker 7: terms of being a Hall of Famer, dreams of being
Speaker 7: so respect to him and uh.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: I didn't get you in trouble. Nothing's blowing up this
Speaker 2: time around. It's all good.
Speaker 6: You and you.
Speaker 3: Did your job. You you were analytical.
Speaker 2: That's the hard part for players with former players, like
Speaker 2: what are you doing? Like how you know, you know
Speaker 2: what it's like to you know, all of those things.
Speaker 2: But yeah, you're doing a great jump. You're doing a
Speaker 2: great jump. He's a Austin Rivers, NBC Sports Channels. Great
Speaker 2: to talk to you again, Thank you.
Speaker 6: Buy always anytime, anytime.
Speaker 2: Ready, We'll take a break eight seven seven three DP show.
Speaker 2: We'll get some phone calls as well. Coming up, Nate
Speaker 2: Margotzi will join us back after this Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick Show week days at nine am Eastern six am
Speaker 1: Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 12: This is Rob Parker and I'm here with an important
Speaker 12: public service announcement. Whatever you do, do not listen to
Speaker 12: the Paulie and Tony Fusco Show. Fox Sports Radio asked
Speaker 12: me to do a promo, but I'm here to do
Speaker 12: a no mo, as in, don't listen to this show,
Speaker 12: no mo. The host are two fools from Philly who
Speaker 12: have the dumbest takes ever in all of sports talk.
Speaker 12: And you know, if I'm saying that, they must really
Speaker 12: be bad. I have no idea why Fox Sports Radio
Speaker 12: pick this up, but I know where to put it
Speaker 12: down in the trash can. So please don't listen to
Speaker 12: the Paulie and Tony Fusco Show.
Speaker 3: No way, no how uh.
Speaker 2: Look at who's a big time actor now Nate BURGETSI
Speaker 2: old friend Breadwinner opens today.
Speaker 3: Wow, I didn't.
Speaker 2: I never thought i'd introduce you as movie star. But
Speaker 2: uh well, congratulations, thank you brother.
Speaker 8: Look at a decent two O five five eight going shorter,
Speaker 8: non pop eleven. Don't put that. Uh dude, it's crazy.
Speaker 8: Look I'm following your footsteps. I mean I wanted to know,
Speaker 8: how would you fill on opening weekends?
Speaker 3: Well, be a wreck.
Speaker 2: Sandler would make me nervous because he would always say, Danny,
Speaker 2: you hearing anything I go.
Speaker 3: You're in Hollywood, Sandler.
Speaker 2: But I remember when the totals for the first weekend
Speaker 2: of Longest Yard came out and it was like eighty million,
Speaker 2: and Sandler was relieved because I don't know if you're
Speaker 2: gonna have joy or relief, let's say, on Sunday or
Speaker 2: Monday when you get that first weekend box office numbers.
Speaker 8: I mean, really it both Well, it depends. Yeah, I
Speaker 8: guess it really depends. I don't know. Those are the
Speaker 8: two things. It's either going to be joy, relief or
Speaker 8: jump off a building. So it's one of the ones.
Speaker 8: I guess that's the relief part.
Speaker 3: Main difference between stand up and acting.
Speaker 8: The preparation I mean, I just a lot of pressureation
Speaker 8: just stand up, But it's you do it over time
Speaker 8: because you're doing so many shows, so you're saying the
Speaker 8: same stuff and you're kind of putting in words and
Speaker 8: here and there and changing little things, and you get
Speaker 8: to do it over especially before you type it's special.
Speaker 8: So there's a where a movie is like it's this day,
Speaker 8: it's scene they jump around in their movie. I mean
Speaker 8: they told me that, you know, when I first came
Speaker 8: to like, it's you know, you don't shoot a movie
Speaker 8: in order, which I kind of knew, but then it's crazy,
Speaker 8: like are you know the first day you're doing some
Speaker 8: scene that's at the end of the movie and you're
Speaker 8: it was wild. I thought, why would you not just
Speaker 8: shoot it in order? But I guess they know what
Speaker 8: they're doing.
Speaker 2: But are you so you you don't have that immediate
Speaker 2: reaction when you do your stand up, but are you
Speaker 2: looking for reaction from the crew, the camera people like
Speaker 2: you need you need that you're used to that feedback.
Speaker 8: Oh dude, I'll walk to cater and see if they
Speaker 8: heard the joke I just said. I mean, I'll go,
Speaker 8: I'll go walk. It's brutal because you say something and
Speaker 8: then no one can laugh, and then they already get done.
Speaker 8: The crew could be really good about it, so that's
Speaker 8: too because they can then't laugh like actress or You're like,
Speaker 8: but I mean, yes, sometimes I will. I would walk
Speaker 8: outside of it. You see it. You hear that. He's
Speaker 8: just constantly doing that. That's a pretty good joke, right,
Speaker 8: and everybody's like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, And you're like okay, uh,
Speaker 8: you know, because I poured my heart out there on
Speaker 8: that one.
Speaker 2: But it's different than the audience that's showing up. They're
Speaker 2: ready to laugh. The guys on the crew aren't showing
Speaker 2: up ready to laugh. They have to do their job.
Speaker 8: They do, and but that's the heart That's been the
Speaker 8: hardest thing is because it's you know, we started taping
Speaker 8: last summer, which is which is relatively quick for a
Speaker 8: movie to come out, you know, but I mean, like
Speaker 8: I can't even imagine like when people are waiting.
Speaker 3: Three years or something for a.
Speaker 8: Movie to come out, like just having to sit there
Speaker 8: and being like, what's going to happen? Like uh, you know,
Speaker 8: I mean, yeah, that's been the hardest part. But I mean,
Speaker 8: luckily I've shows this weekend, so I've been doing shows
Speaker 8: and uh so trying to at least hearing some laughs.
Speaker 2: We're talking to Nate Margatsi. The movie is the Breadwinner
Speaker 2: opens today. He's encouraging theaters to charge a significantly reduced
Speaker 2: Nate rate to make going to see it more affordable.
Speaker 2: Also upcoming tour dates Knoxville, Birmingham, Savannah, Greensboro, Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, Phoenix,
Speaker 2: San Jose, and San Diego. How much did you write
Speaker 2: of this movie?
Speaker 8: A lot of it's like with my stand up, So
Speaker 8: I would say it's like it was like a mix
Speaker 8: of just you know, almost like my stand up and
Speaker 8: a lot of stuff as went through it, and then
Speaker 8: Dan Leghana would go and you know, kind of put
Speaker 8: it all together. But I mean Legana definitely was the
Speaker 8: one that had to sit and he's has written scripts
Speaker 8: and all it so he said and did that. So
Speaker 8: it's but it's it's heavily you know, There's there's a
Speaker 8: lot of stuff in there that's like kind of from
Speaker 8: my stand up and then we kind of molded it together.
Speaker 8: But Dan definitely had to do more of the heavy
Speaker 8: list on the writing part of it. It was nice
Speaker 8: to write it because I could control what I say, like,
Speaker 8: there's no crime. I wasn't gonna you know, I wasn't
Speaker 8: putting any kind of like saying that. I was like,
Speaker 8: I don't look like an idiot, you know, like no crying. Uh.
Speaker 8: I was trying to know, like big laughing for me,
Speaker 8: Like I didn't know if I could take that.
Speaker 2: So I was very well, let me hear, let me
Speaker 2: hear your fake laugh. You already heard it earlier, Thank
Speaker 2: you God. That's here's mine.
Speaker 8: That's what I heard all night when I was when
Speaker 8: I was in New York.
Speaker 3: That's true. You can hear me laughing all the time.
Speaker 7: I was.
Speaker 8: That's all I heard from the crowd. I go, he
Speaker 8: loved it. That's my mom. When I got I go,
Speaker 8: Dan loved it.
Speaker 3: Nate was killing it out there.
Speaker 2: Who tells you when when you're not funny? Uh?
Speaker 8: My daughter, My daughter is quick to it and tell
Speaker 8: me it's not funny. She'd always go, well that's an
Speaker 8: adult joke. And I'm like, she's thirteen. Now You're like,
Speaker 8: well you're thirteen, you get and then help He'll get defensive.
Speaker 8: I go, you get the idea of why people would
Speaker 8: like it, won't you like you know, like, uh, it's brutal. Comics.
Speaker 8: Comics are not. They can laugh, but comics can very
Speaker 8: much be. They just stare at you and they'll be like, yeah, dude,
Speaker 8: that's great. Like Conan Conan O'Brien talked about that one time.
Speaker 8: Any exactly that you're told joke to a comic and
Speaker 8: I'll do it to you. Someone tell me I'm not
Speaker 8: a great laugh at and sometimes they joke, but you
Speaker 8: can tell me a joke and I'll be like, that's
Speaker 8: the best joke I've ever heard in my life. And
Speaker 8: it'll be that it sounds like I hate you, but
Speaker 8: I'm honestly like, that's the I'm like, that's the best
Speaker 8: joke I've ever heard.
Speaker 2: But I hate when somebody goes, oh, that's funny. I'll go, yeah,
Speaker 2: you laugh. I don't want you to say, oh that's funny. Well,
Speaker 2: funny to me is laughing.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I mean I do do that too, where I go, oh,
Speaker 8: that's funny, and then it's been great. You hear it.
Speaker 8: Look in this tone, it'd be like, oh that's funny. Man.
Speaker 8: Like as a comic, that would be it's really funny.
Speaker 8: If you're talking to something else, you're like, oh, that's funny.
Speaker 8: You say a little bit quicker. That's they don't take
Speaker 8: it's funny. It's like what you're like, what do you
Speaker 8: want them to do? They got to get out of
Speaker 8: the situation, so they just go Out's funny, and then
Speaker 8: they're trying to get to the door.
Speaker 2: I always wondered about how, you know, musicians get to
Speaker 2: play the same songs over and over and over. Billy
Speaker 2: Joel can play you know, panel Man until he's one
Speaker 2: hundred Springsteen, but how often can you bring something back
Speaker 2: on a new tour, not your current tour, because I
Speaker 2: know you're doing pretty much same thing every night.
Speaker 8: Yeah, look, if that is easy, Billy Joel, it'd be nice.
Speaker 8: Uh I'm joking. That's a real job.
Speaker 2: Oh sorry, Yeah, yeah, if.
Speaker 8: I had it as easy as Bruce Springsteen brother, I
Speaker 8: would be easy. Yeah.
Speaker 9: Uh, you can't.
Speaker 8: It's they It's the hard part is it leaves your mind,
Speaker 8: you know, do you you know you probably had this
Speaker 8: like sport do you have like any like so many
Speaker 8: sports where everybody's like, did you enjoy that like finals
Speaker 8: or whatever that you were able to go to, and
Speaker 8: you're like, I don't remember going because you kind of
Speaker 8: just have to keep moving. You're doing so much stuff
Speaker 8: that's like kind of crazy, so you kind of got
Speaker 8: to keep moving. That's it's like that with stand up,
Speaker 8: Like once once I get done tape in its special,
Speaker 8: which for worth next week, I'm taping my special, and
Speaker 8: so once I get done tape in it, it's like
Speaker 8: my brain is on like panic mode to find a
Speaker 8: new to build a new hour. And then once you
Speaker 8: shed an old thing, it gets pretty hard to remember it.
Speaker 8: Like I couldn't do it. I don't. I would have
Speaker 8: to go lift to my last special to see if
Speaker 8: I could do a joke from there. I couldn't do
Speaker 8: one off top because I it just you got to
Speaker 8: like empty your brain so you can get new stuff
Speaker 8: in there.
Speaker 2: Any actors comedians you sought advice on doing this movie?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I talked to it. Well, it was it was cool.
Speaker 8: So I got to talk to h I did talk
Speaker 8: to Sandler. We're ACNL fifty. I was able to talk
Speaker 8: to him and he was he was very wonderful about it,
Speaker 8: like just you know saying, you know, just he's like
Speaker 8: just be there every day just to see what's going
Speaker 8: on and all this, Uh, like the Big Ones Wahlberg
Speaker 8: was someone that I've got to know and able to
Speaker 8: talk to him some about it. But I had Tamil
Speaker 8: Najianni on in the movie, and he was He's just
Speaker 8: someone I started comedy with. So like my first day
Speaker 8: he was there, which was nice because it's like I
Speaker 8: know him, and you know, it was just he's just
Speaker 8: very He's very positive, very you know, going like no,
Speaker 8: it's great, it's great, It's all this. So I mean
Speaker 8: he would like him. I would have. And Colin Jost also,
Speaker 8: they're so funny in it, and Colin was you know,
Speaker 8: Colin would come and he gets he I mean he's
Speaker 8: you know the Weeknd. He's a writer, so like he
Speaker 8: comes in and like would have like lines. He would
Speaker 8: text me like like hey, I thought about this, he
Speaker 8: could say in the movie, like just extremely helpful. Keep
Speaker 8: thinking about it on the outside. You know, even when
Speaker 8: he wasn't on set, he would think about it just
Speaker 8: to you know, a need of the lines, any stuff
Speaker 8: he can make better. But yeah, I went to relying
Speaker 8: on those guys and just I put myself around people
Speaker 8: I know, and then like Nandy and the girls, the
Speaker 8: daughters we have in it are so good and they
Speaker 8: became like sisters on set, and I think that helped
Speaker 8: the like once you you know, once they they feel
Speaker 8: like their sisters, so then it helps you feel like
Speaker 8: their dad because they're just a year around them so much,
Speaker 8: and they're very fun.
Speaker 2: Could you see yourself doing a love scene?
Speaker 8: I mean not right, I don't think not like, I
Speaker 8: don't think like, you know, not white lotus though.
Speaker 3: Going you know, it would be extremely white lotus.
Speaker 8: He would be extremely like Dane. I think you've been
Speaker 8: edgier than I will be in a movie.
Speaker 6: So yo, I know that.
Speaker 2: But I I Sandler just he tries to put me
Speaker 2: in the most awkward positions and he thinks it's funny,
Speaker 2: and I'm I'm a fool, and I go, okay, I'll
Speaker 2: do that, sand Man. And then you know, like he
Speaker 2: had me kill, he had me kiss Uh what was
Speaker 2: her name?
Speaker 3: What was her name?
Speaker 2: Paul Wendy mcclennon. Uh, yeah, Kobe McLendon. And and if
Speaker 2: it wasn't in the script, Nate and I show up
Speaker 2: on set and my my daughter was working as a
Speaker 2: runner on the set, and all of a sudden, Sandler goes, Danny, Danny,
Speaker 2: why don't you kiss her she was my wife in
Speaker 2: the movie. Yeah, And I go, what's it's not in
Speaker 2: the script? Sanm Many goes, I know, Danny, just I
Speaker 2: want you to kiss her. So I kiss her. My
Speaker 2: daughter walks by and she's mortified. We get done with
Speaker 2: the scene and she goes, are you gonna tell mom?
Speaker 2: I go, yes, I'm gonna tell mom. And I said
Speaker 2: to sam Man, I said, what was it? He goes, Danny,
Speaker 2: it's acting. I said, Okay. I mean I kept saying,
Speaker 2: let's do more takes. I mean, I don't know if
Speaker 2: that was unprofessional.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Yeah. I always would like to say, you go, if
Speaker 8: you're like, even if you're not going to kiss, you go,
Speaker 8: let's just get it on tape. And so we have
Speaker 8: it and then we'll see what happens. Uh. But it's yeah,
Speaker 8: it's like this day. The first day I had to
Speaker 8: kiss Mandy, and I mean we kiss like he kiss
Speaker 8: her like a little kiss your wife when you go goodbye,
Speaker 8: like you know, it wasn't like anything big, but my
Speaker 8: wife of course comes that day and then you're like
Speaker 8: that boy, and then it was funny. We went to
Speaker 8: the premiere and so my wife and my daughter is
Speaker 8: sitting with us this day and then they kiss on
Speaker 8: uh you know shows the kiss in the movie. And
Speaker 8: then my wife, my daughter leans over to my wife

Speaker 4: no wayse Cass Paul.
Speaker 14: It's not apples and oranges, and it's not comparison the
Speaker 14: rock star thing that you pointed out. But when I
Speaker 14: was a kid, the Pittsburgh Steelers felt very famous head
Speaker 14: to toe. Lots of famous names, I mean, defensive tackles
Speaker 14: were getting national commercials.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we weren't rooting for them, not when we
Speaker 2: saw them. No way like I admired the Steelers, but
Speaker 2: I didn't want them to win. The Bulls. People wanted
Speaker 2: the Bulls to win. That's the difference. By the way,
Speaker 2: it's such a random side story here. I had the
Speaker 2: over under for LSU wins this year college football and
Speaker 2: the over under from Old Miss football this year. LSU
