Speaker 1: Hi. I am Kate Hudson and my name is Oliver Hudson.

2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: We wanted to do something that highlighted our relationship and

3
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: what it's like to be siblings. We are a sibling raivalry. No, no, sibling.

4
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 1: Don't do that with your mouth, Vely, that's good. Are

00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: you nervous? Well? This is our for me, this is

6
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: our biggest, this is our biggest. Let's set the picture.

7
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: Let's set the picture. You're sitting in Jimmy. I want

8
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: them to like this. I want him to like me.

9
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: I do like That's really my concern. You're sitting in

10
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel's office right now, drinking a tequila that apparently

11
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: was signed by George Clooney himself. Yeah, gotsamigo's reposato and

12
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: uh shout out, shout out to uh Meldvin clo Gerber,

13
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: the Gerber's and Clunes Cloones. Hey, George, do you, on

14
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: a scale of one to ten, how nervous are you

15
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: to interview Jimmy Kimmel and his brother Jonathan Kimmel. I

16
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: don't have butterflies, you know what I mean? But how

17
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: do you think Jimmy would feel about that? You know?

18
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: I want excuse me. I want them to uh, I

19
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: just want them to like me. Like I said, Like

20
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: that's probably some deeper psychological stuff, but you know what

21
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: it's it's interesting. I think it could be the Italian roots,

22
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: but there's something familial about them. It feels like I

23
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: haven't even you know, we haven't done the interview yet

24
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: put it. I don't know. I know we have feels

25
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: like a Hudson in some weird yea way. We have

26
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: a weird thing where we have those familiar roots with

27
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: anybody who's Italian and anybody who's Jewish, so pretty much

28
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: everybody in Hollywood. How did your research go? My research

29
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: with Jimmy really interesting. Actually, I'm excited about this because

30
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: he's a real family guy. Basically everybody works with him,

31
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: so we've got some good questions for him there. And

32
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: then Jonathan who now is no longer at the show,

33
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: but he's working right has worked with him forever, and

34
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 1: his Instagram's pretty funny. Yeah, he's got a good instagram.

35
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: He I'm excited. So I have so many questions. And

36
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: then I also have the same thing as you, which

37
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: is I hope I'm just like of all the people

38
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: that you know, I'm interviewing him, which is weird. That's

39
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: the strange part, because it's like, if anybody is going

40
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: to judge how capable I am of this, going to

41
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: judge us, well, he's He's all he's doing his show

42
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: right now, knowing that he has to come do this,

43
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: which is a little bit probably like oh, that's got

44
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: to fucking thing. I was thinking about that on the

45
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: car right over. I'm like, Jimmy's probably like finish the

46
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: show and like, all right, what's the next time? Can

47
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: go home? Like no, sorry, Jimmy, you have a podcast

48
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: with Kate and Oliver Hudson. He's probably like, oh, fuck, Honestly,

49
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: I want to just talk to him about Stern the

50
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: whole time, because and fly fishing. Yeah, and fly fishing,

51
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 1: which I'll make sure you don't because I'm gonna bring

52
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: it up. So I'm gonna bring up some sort of

53
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: a fly fishing thing, and for sure Stern Jimmy's about

54
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: to come in the room. But you can't even walk

55
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: down the hallway here without bumping into some sort of

56
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: a family member. No, yeah, you know it's true, and Micky, yeah, Mickey,

57
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: And then I was like, oh, excuse me, and they're like, oh, hey,

58
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: I'm Jimmy's third cousin. All right, okay, that's cool. Like, oh, hey,

59
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: I'm Jimmy's nephew's aunt. You are. How does that work?

60
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: I know? Wait, you're heading. They're heading in the they're heading. Yeah, yeah,

61
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: it looks good. It's good. No one's going to be

62
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: able to tell which one is me and which one's

63
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: my brother. We've already talked with. Yeah, this must be

64
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: an issue you guys have regularly. Right, Well, yeah, I mean,

65
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: you guys are lucky you were born different genders. I know,

66
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: I know. Then we can be absolute disaster. We're so excited.

67
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: Thank you for doing. We're not pros, so don't speak.

68
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: I can pretend to do our sister Jill's voice too,

69
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: to extinguish it. There's two of you and then there's Jill. Right, yes,

70
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: there's three of us total. Unless our parents have been

71
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: holding out, we don't know. Jimmy, you're the oldest I am. Okay,

72
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 1: so I'm nine years older than John, even though I

73
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: look older. Yeah, I got all the gray and all

74
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: that stuff. You're nine years apart. Yeah, and I look

75
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: like the baby. Like a combination for the listeners, I'm

76
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: a gross old man. I'm a gross old looking man.

77
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 1: I think you're actually pretty handsome to see there, you John,

78
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: don't get down on yourself. No. And then sisters in

79
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 1: the middle. Sister in the middle, that's like me, so

80
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: very similar. We grew up in Las Vegas mostly. My

81
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: family moved from Brooklyn when I was nine years old.

82
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: Jonathan was three months old, and so Jonathan really was

83
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: raised in My childhood was the most part. Do you

84
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: think that gambling youth did that affect his personality? I

85
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: think it affected us all in ways that have yet

86
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: to be measured. It was a weird kind of family

87
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: in a way. It was a very like tight knit

88
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: family town in contrast to what Las Vegas is. You know,

89
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: you kind of knew everybody, Like everybody was at the

90
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: same church. Did you guys grow up like heavy Catholic. Yeah,

91
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: but it was very progressive, kind of cool Catholics. You know.

92
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: We had like it was kind of funny. We had

93
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: this group called the Pilgrim Friars who would like come

94
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: and stay with us, and they were like a singing group.

95
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: They were Franciscan Franciscan priests and monk and they would

96
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: stay at our house, like six of them, and we

97
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: got away unscathed. They were great guys. They come and

98
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: sing and play bongos in the living room. And the

99
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 1: d weren't religious. They were religious, yeah, but not in

100
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: a bad way. You know. It's I think it's funny

101
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: because I think now there's this like kind of negative

102
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: con it's almost weird to explain not in a bad way,

103
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: but all very nice. Yeah, it was all very good.

104
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: We had a great priests, we did. We got a

105
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: very good But it's interesting that you say that because

106
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: when anytime now that you talk about someone being religious,

107
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: there's a negative connotation to that. Now for some Yes,

108
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: in this god forsaken land city we live in, Yes, absolutely,

109
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: if you go to church, you're considered to be. I

110
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,119
Speaker 1: guess it's whether you're religious in a way that means

111
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: you feel other religions are going to be cursed to hell,

112
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: or if you're like just like everybody's fine, We like

113
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: everybody kind of right. Was it strict enough in your

114
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: house that it informed certain things about your personality as

115
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: you got older that you actually had to kind of

116
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: deal with. Wasn't strict at all? And I think that

117
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 1: people there there are things rules that are associated with

118
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: religion that don't really. I think our parents were pretty

119
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: good about sticking to the basics, the kind of love

120
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: one another, help one another, stuff and and and I

121
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: think we were better for it's pretty like community driven,

122
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: you know, or it's just like, oh, everybody the church

123
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: every Sunday. I was an altar. Boy, are you guys

124
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: still practicing? I mean, are you doing with the kids.

125
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: The last time I went to church, it was like

126
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: a Christmas eve thing, and I I sang every song

127
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: loudly as Michael McDonald, just because no one can really

128
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: false you for singing your heart out, but when you're

129
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: doing it as Michael McDonald, it was kind of fun.

130
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: It was more fun. You're a musical theater dude, right, Yeah,

131
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: that I did have a strong much to Jimmy's dismay,

132
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: I went into the dark world of musical theater. This

133
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: is one thing I found this out. And this is

134
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: one thing Oliver. You know, I was quite performance oriented.

135
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,559
Speaker 1: So when we were little, it drove him nuts because

136
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: I was a musical theater type. Okay, and it did

137
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: drive drive him crazy, which made me actually want to

138
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: do it more, do more. Well, it was all about

139
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: look at me here, I am. No, it wasn't. It

140
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: was about my love for musical theater. For you, it was.

141
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: But no, but Katie was like, Mom, look look look

142
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: at me, Look at me. I mean those words were

143
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: said many men for me. It's just I've never been

144
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: that interested in musical theater in general. But I trained

145
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: John from the day he was born. I actually was

146
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: in the delivery room. I threw a baseball right into

147
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: the womb hard and picked it off the ground. So

148
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: we spent so many hours training him to be a

149
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: major league baseball player. And then he turned into a

150
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: great baseball player and really, like, you know, an accomplished

151
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: baseball player in Phoenix. And I went off to do radio,

152
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: which was how I started. And when I came back,

153
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: he was a musical theater guy. And I said, what

154
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: did you guys do to him while I was gone?

155
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: And I bought him a pearl JAMCD. I was like,

156
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: listen to this a lot, over and over again. It's all.

157
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: And then I went into musical theater college and had

158
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: the most sex you can pop. Now, Yeah, yeah, I

159
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: was wrong in everything. You're like, he went the right path,

160
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: But no, it was weird. Because like when I was

161
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: in high school, I think I think part of what

162
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: I love about musical theater is there's a goofiness to

163
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: it that's kind of like silly and stupid, but also

164
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: like once you start singing along and somebody's like, oh

165
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: you can, you can sound good doing that, You're like,

166
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: oh really, Oh maybe now I'm interested. And that's what

167
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: I was, like, kind of goofing on someone, I think

168
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: in high school and the drama teacher was there and

169
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: he was like, Hey, you want to be in into

170
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 1: the woods And I was like, is that a thing?

171
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: Can I do that? I'm also like on the baseball team,

172
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: and I talked to my coach and he was like, oh,

173
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: I have you know season tickets that gamage the theater, Like, yeah,

174
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: you should do it, and we'll make it. We'll make

175
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,479
Speaker 1: it work for your schedule. It's like a weirdly supportive

176
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: group where it's like, yeah, you like that, do that too,

177
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: go for it. It was it was kind of nice

178
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: that was in Arizona. We would move there. I mean,

179
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 1: all of you guys, I wish I actually it was

180
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: Jill was here because she's a comedian and and all

181
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: of you guys now are all in the same business.

182
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 1: I mean, you're in comedy, but you're on the more

183
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: producorial director director. And then Jill's stand up and she's

184
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: at the She's now isn't she doing stuff at You're

Speaker 1: lot of every tours, uh, and she does all around

187
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: with the troops and to use everywhere. Is there an

188
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: internal dynamic with you guys, that's like inside the family

189
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: at the Thanksgiving table. Who's the funny now now? Or

190
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 1: is this like when they were kids? Oh kids, when

191
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 1: you guys were chaos? It's always cousin sal is the

192
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: answer to, Yeah, yeah, it is true. As kids and

193
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,719
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving was it nuts? We all kind of like it

194
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: was were entertained by our aunts and uncles and stuff.

195
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: It was like that was more of the show than ourselves.

196
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: We're provocateurs. We we will sit there and get our

197
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 1: older relatives going, that's what that is what we do.

198
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: But we also have like, it's interesting the dynamic. And

199
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: I've noticed this because we go on fishing trips. I

200
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: have a son who's twenty six years old and a

201
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: twenty eight year old daughter, and then two little ones

202
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: but I noticed that to my son Kevin, no one

203
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 1: is funnier than Ben Jonathan. I mean, they have like

204
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: their so it's it is interesting how different people in

205
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: the family gravitate toward each other and everyone has like

206
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: their favorite and vice versa, and and there really isn't

207
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: our family is very funny. We have a very funny family.

208
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 1: We are not the funniest ones in our family. I mean,

209
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: my aunt Chippy is just a non season amazing Well.

210
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: I was just talking to Funny, her daughter, who was

211
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 1: just here right making that's my cousin. That's your cousin, right,

212
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: And I asked, it is is Chippy? Is that is

213
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: that stick her? You know? I was like, is that her?

214
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean, is that she understands why she's funny? You know,

215
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: she knows she will always deliver. You know, she's eighty

216
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: years old. She's as tankerous as as can be. I

217
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: put her on the show from time to time, and

218
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: there's nothing I enjoy more than getting her going. I

219
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: love it, and I just I love pulling pranks on her.

220
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: I load her to this day. I will put explosives

221
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: in her cigarettes. And she's the person who smacked me

222
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: the most as an adult she did, especially like, I

223
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: don't think any other performers I've directed have smacked me

224
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 1: nearly as much. A yeah I've been hit by was

225
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: what was discipline? Like, it's scary you got and all

226
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: you know, our spanked aunt and no no space bank.

227
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: In fact, I distinctly remember moving from Brooklyn and my

228
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: sister we moved to Las Vegas and my sister misbehaved

229
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: in some way at school and they paddled her. They

230
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: hit her with like a wooden paddle, and my mother

231
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: went absolutely berserk. She went, I mean it was like,

232
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: I don't think she even drove to the school, she

233
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: just she went there in a ball of fire and

234
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: tore the place apart. It was killing never to I mean,

235
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: I think you have hit some of the teachers with

236
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: the battle. I was watching the genealogy segment with your

237
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: aunt and your dad. Oh yeah, and he seemed so sweet.

238
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: Our dad is very sweet. Yes, I could tell that

239
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: his I mean from what from the little bit that

240
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: I saw on that that his demeanor is quite gentle

241
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: and sweet. Is that? Am I getting the right? Yeah? No,

242
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: he is very especially with little kids, especially with his grandchildren.

243
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: He's he's very gentle. He's he's he's great with with kids. Well,

244
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: here's the thing, is the Kimmels, the the the the

245
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: what's up with the Kimmel side, Like we seem to

246
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: really see the Italian side of the family, The Italian

247
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: side of the family basically devoured the German Irish side. Okay,

248
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: you guys, like we moved to Las Vegas to be

249
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: with the Italian side of the family, and which is

250
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: so strange because usually it's the other way around, isn't it. Well,

251
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: Italians are you know, inseparable in a lot of ways

252
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: and also very forceful. So my father had no choice.

253
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: I mean he really had to give up his own

254
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: parents and accept our grandparents. On the Italian side. There

255
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: are great Kimmel's out there. They we like a lot

256
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: of us just went west and then like half of

257
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: the Kimmel family kind of stayed on the East coast

258
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: and so were we see them. Our father is Sicilian, yeah, so,

259
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: but our Sicilian side is Jersey. Did the Kimmels get

260
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: any the recognition that they deserve in this whole big

261
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: family of yours. They don't demand a lot of attend

262
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: They don't know, I mean, like the Italian family are

263
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: like the big attention part of the family for sure. Yeah, yeah,

264
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: we see now that Jimmy does the show. Once a

265
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: year we go to Brooklyn. We get to like reunite

266
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: with everybody at least once a year if they're not

267
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: like visiting or something. What's your earliest memory of your

268
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: older brother? Jimmy above me with the dribble of spit

269
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: out of his lips slowly trickling. I don't know why

270
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: my mouth would be open for some reason, because you're

271
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: well now, I think I connect to my There's a

272
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: really early audio recording that my mother did of me

273
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: when I was four, and I still, like, even though

274
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,920

Speaker 1: a movie and she's like, and what did you see?

278
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: It's like I went to see Indiana Jones in The

279
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: Temple to Doom and like listening to it now, like

280
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: I was four and she took me to Indiana Jones,

281
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: Like what the fuck was going on? Because like now

00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: so my my brother and I actually saying why it

305
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: were about ten years nine ten years apart, Like was

306
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: there a time when it clicked, you know what I mean,

307
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: Like when it was like, all right, we've gone from

308
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: older brother to younger brother to now, well all I've

309
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,199
Speaker 1: ever been was like, you know everything, Jimmy, I was like,

310
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: can I can I go with? You looked, and to

311
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: his credit, he was just like the nicest you know,

312
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: like the most inclusive person you could imagine. You know,

313
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: it's like not that nice, though, well, I mean you're

314
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: nice to say that, but not in a way that

315
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: I could ever really register. And I mean I got

316
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: dragged down the stairs while I was asleep a couple

317
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: of times just to see if I would wake up.

318
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,679
Speaker 1: I don't remember. That's a good one. Cleto, who was

319
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 1: my band leader, grew up across the street from us

320
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas and he's a year older than I am,

321
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: and so Klito and I were always together, and Jonathan was,

322
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: you know, he's a kid. He was, you know, like

323
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, six years old. He wanted to always

324
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: say can I go? Can I go? It's always can

325
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 1: I go? And we used to say Cleto used to say, John,

326
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: you can come when hell freeze is over? And he

327
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: used to ask my mother when is hell freeze over?

328
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: We also came up and I think Cleto came up

329
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: with this too, a fictional character called the penis Man. Yeah,

330
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 1: Chop would chop your penis if you didn't do what

331
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 1: you were supposed to do. And Jimmy would say if

332
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: I was good, because we'd sleep. He had like two

333
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: different twin beds in his room and I would most

334
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: of the time sleeping there, and he was like, I'll

335
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: I'll bless the wall so that the penis Man doesn't

336
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: come in the middle of the penis. I was an

337
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: altar boy. I was able to do that. I also

338
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 1: for many years, maybe like two years, Jonathan was convinced

339
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: that I was Superman. And what I would do was

340
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: I would have I'd have my hair and a curl,

341
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: and then he'd walk in the room and I quickly

342
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 1: mess it up just so that he wouldn't see the curl,

343
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: and he'd be like, I saw the curl. I'm like,

344
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: don't tell anyone. We wouldn't have a blue shirt. And

345
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 1: we actually convinced our younger brother's friend that we were

346
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: a family of vampires. We used to come over and

347
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 1: we literally would set up the most insane like serious

348
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: like we had coffins in the closet. I don't know

349
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: how we even gott if. We made them, like made

350
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: these crazy cons. And we had one friend like literally

351
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: upside down on the rack, like on the like like

352
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: sleeping upside down. Its big. Yeah, we did, like you

353
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: can't wake you can't wake them their sleep. The kid

354
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: was extremely gullible though, because once we went whence the

355
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: vampire phase ended, we we told them we were going

356
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 1: to launch space Shuttle from the fucking basement, and we

357
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 1: put tinfoil all over the basement and filmed filled doors

358
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 1: opening and we're like all like little lights. I mean,

359
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: you know, it was all about entertaining. It was really

360
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: it was, I mean, we were creating that. But you

361
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 1: guys were a family of entertainers pretty much, right, even

362
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 1: though not really I mean I never well just I'm saying,

363
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: not not necessarily in an occupation, but just in in

364
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 1: your personalities. It seems as though you in Brooklyn everyone

365
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: is an entertainer. So we wound up in Las Vegas

366
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: where people were kind of normal, so we seemed like

367
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: entertainment in a way. Yeah, and we had an entertaining family.

368
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: And but like for me growing there was never like, oh,

369
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,479
Speaker 1: I'm also like a comedy person. I always love comedy

370
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: and like a comedy geek and like like sketch shows

371
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So then when did the bug hit?

372
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: Like for you first, our parents, our mother, Well for me,

373
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: I think I remember distinctly a couple of things. One

374
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: of them is, I remember we're in Vegas and when

375
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: my parents, our parents came home and my dad was

376
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: wearing an arrow through his head and I said, what

377
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 1: is that? And he said, oh, we went to go

378
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: see this guy, Steve Martin. He's so funny and I

379
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: never heard of Steve Martin. Wow. And then he bought

380
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: the album at the show, and I think it was

381
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: Wild and Crazy Guy, and and I used to listen

382
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 1: to it secretly because it's not something my mother would

383
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: have approved of me hearing, but I'd listen to it

384
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 1: over and over again. And then they bought his book

385
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: Cruel Shoes, which we would read. And they really were

386
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: into comedy, mel Brooks and all of these these these

387
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: movie mother is a goofball too. She was a me. Yeah,

388
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: she's like funny and and like it all kind of

389
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,639
Speaker 1: stems yet from my grandfather, who is always like they

390
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: just exposed you to the great world of comment. I

391
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: think it's important to say that the things that we

392
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: have partnerships with in terms of our ads are businesses

393
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: that we really like. They're businesses that either we love

394
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: their product, or they're doing certain things for the environment

395
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: that we love, or their their give back portions or

396
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: something that we're super inspired by, and we're specific about

397
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: the people that we talk about. They're carefully curated, carefully curated.

398
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: And this one in particular, I actually love. I am

399
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: a small chested woman, and I think that there are

400
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: certain people that do bras and a really amazing way

401
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: to kind of fit for every woman. This one in particular,

402
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: this company it's called Third Love. You do this quiz,

403
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: It's a fit quiz. They ask you every question you

404
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 1: need for what your bra needs are depending on how

405
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 1: you like to wear them, what your vibe is, what

406
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 1: your bra size is, which your even activities are, all

407
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 1: that stuff, and then they perfectly match a bra for

408
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 1: you for your type. I can't wait. But the number

409
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: one thing I love about this company is their give back.

410
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: So they donate all of their gently used or return

411
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 1: bras to women in need, and they've donated over fifteen

412
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: million dollars in bras. Oh wow. They call it the

413
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: perfect fit promise. Right, So, like, you have sixty days

414
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 1: to wear it. You don't like it, or if it

415
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: doesn't feel right, you can return it. So we are

456
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: talk to you about I mean, I could Howard. I'm

457
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: a super fan, Like, yes, I'm the same here. My

458
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: uncle Vinnie used to make tapes of the show and

459
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: mail them to us in Las Vegas, and so I

460
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 1: just listened to the tape, you know, like ninety minutes

461
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: of Howard Stern. I listened to a thousand times, and

462
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 1: I just hope that he sent me another one. But

463
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 1: also I read in a magazine interview that David Letterman

464
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: had started in radio. So those two things. And then

465
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: I worked at a clothing store called Miller's Outpost, which

466
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: you may remember. I worked there, and there was a

467
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: guy who worked there worked on the college radio station.

468
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 1: He said, hey, you're funny. You should be on the radio.

469
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: And that's how I went up in the radio, just

470
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,719
Speaker 1: went into the station college radio. Yeah, college radio. That

471
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: leads me to an interesting question. I was thinking about this.

472
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: You said something that once that was about how that's

473
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: the hardest audience now they keep that young kids. No,

474
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: young kids are the hardest for a comedian. Yeah they are.

475
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: They are because they're not sure what's They haven't fully

476
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: developed yet and they're not sure what what is okay

477
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: to laugh at? Do you think it was like that

478
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 1: then though when you started? Now totally different because people

479
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: weren't attacking each other. Yeah, you know, it's interesting, I think,

480
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: and it's it's almost like again, you don't know what

481
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,360
Speaker 1: you're what's okay to laugh at? I think a lot

482
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 1: of the times, you know, there are irreverent jokes that

483
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: people feel that funny in their gut and they want

484
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,239
Speaker 1: to laugh and express laughter, but they're hesitant about it

485
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: because they don't know whether it's politically correct to laugh

486
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: at nowadays. And as you get older, though, you you

487
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: figure it out, you become more comfortable. But sometimes especially

488
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: now where you know, you make one wrong move online

489
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 1: and well forget it. You get Is that with that? Actually?

490
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: I mean? How is common? Many changed for you guys?

491
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: We mess up constantly. But if you screw up now

492
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Stakes are much much higher.

493
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: But your brand of comedy has always been you know, well,

494
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,719
Speaker 1: this is too crazy. When I was on the radio,

495
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 1: you know, I said a lot of things that probably

496
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: wouldn't wouldn't go over so well. Now, well, but I

497
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 1: was thinking about it because Letterman. You know, I've been

498
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: interviewed by both of you guys, and it's a very

499
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: different I mean, you're very different styles. But Letterman. I

500
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of things that Letterman was able

501
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: to get away with not that long ago that probably wouldn't.

502
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: I would have been at least, you know, on the

503
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: on the ticker in the morning, don't you think. Yeah, Well,

504
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: Twitter is really change. Is what has changed things, I

505
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: think more than anything. Twitter and this mentality, this kind

506
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: of witch hunt mentality where people love going after other

507
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: people because it makes you feel like you're a good

508
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: person if you point out the deficiencies in others. You know,

509
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: and a lot of times people have a point, you know,

510
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: you can't say like, oh, well, they're never it's never wrong.

511
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: And maybe we are a gentler society as a result

512
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: of it. But it is a shame when you see

513
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: just a tiny, tiny portion of the public. I don't know,

514
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: I just think I worry about stand up comedians being

515
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: able to try out material. I think it's all about

516
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,719
Speaker 1: like your way in with whatever the premise is, Like,

517
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: how are you framing the premise? Is it something that

518
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: you're saying you believe or you're pointing out that people

519
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: believe different ways, Like you can change, Like I'm doing

520
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: this show Crank Anchors now, which is like puppets making

521
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: prank phone calls, and so there's been a lot of

522
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: like people asking me how I'm going to do it? Yeah,

523
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: with like sensitivities today, and I usually like root it

524
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: back into like, well, what are you like when you

525
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: go to lunch with somebody? Are you like spouting off

526
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: crazy obscenities about all sorts of different people, or are

527
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: you like all right, are you at your core considering

528
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: at person? I think you can like push the boundaries

529
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: of comedy as long as you like keep your consideration.

530
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: And sure, some guys come from a solid family, right,

531
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: which is I think in comedy some of them are liquid. Yeah,

532
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: but in comedy a lot of these women and men

533
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: are coming from really fucked up backgrounds. I mean yeah,

534
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 1: and we know them and love them and their whole

535
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: there's this sort of darkness that kind of is rooted

536
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: in their comedy. You know, their their defense mechanism, and

537
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: I think it comes across in both of you. I

538
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 1: mean obviously you know, and I think it's we should

539
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: say this that you were a writer on the show

540
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: for a while, right, and then you direct a lot

541
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: of the second writer on south Park. Right on south Park,

542
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: and yeah, I made it just about everybody angry at

543
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: one or another, but even at south Park, like that

544
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: writer's room. I think it's important and it's tough for

545
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: people in like Chappelle's situation where you're an individual comic

546
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: and you're kind of like working crowds of your like

547
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: it's it's it's kind of you doing it all on

548
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,239
Speaker 1: your own in a lot of ways sometimes like with

549
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: our shows or like if you know, if Jimmy's doing

550
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: like more of a oscars, like you want to have

551
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: other people that you can have the conversation about what

552
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: the material you're going forward with is, and like that's

553
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: usually what was good at south Park. It was always like,

554
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 1: how do we pose a terrible question but an honest question.

555
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: It's like if your question is honest, like we we

556
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: did this episode. I was sure my mother was gonna

557
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: be really upset. About where there was a statue of

558
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,719
Speaker 1: the Virgin Mother that was like crying blood and they

559
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: were like, well, the Pope is going to decide whether

560
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: this is a miracle or not. And I try to

561
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: pose the honest question, like if the blood was coming

562
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: out of another orifice, would it still miraculous? And that,

563
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: of course turned into Trey like the Virgin Mary is

564
00:31:54,480 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 1: shitting like it she taught me. Like the day after,

565
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: She's like that was hilarious. She's always had like you know,

566
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: but you know what it does. But it speaks to

567
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 1: the brand of humor. And if you've created the brand

568
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: for yourself, then you're able to get away with more.

569
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: Even now, what about The Man Show, Like, do you

570
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: watch those episodes and know what I'm saying? When you would?

571
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: Would you would? Are you like oh god? Or you

572
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: like this was just a round? Then? You know? Mostly

573
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: what bothers me when I look back at stuff, it's

574
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: not about the content, it's about the quality. And sometimes

575
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 1: I'll go like, oh boy, yeah, that one wasn't good

576
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: enough to put on. I wish I wish we'd we'd

577
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: had another three months to work on the show we

578
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: were doing at that time twenty six episodes of the

579
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 1: show in six months time. So it was a lot

580
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: more than what people put on TV now now an

581
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: episode and now in order for a show is ten

582
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: episodes for the year. Nice, So that's really what I

583
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: But you know, ultimately, like what are you gonna do?

584
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: I can't go back in time, but that's what I

585
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 1: wanted at the time. I went. I went back in

586
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,239
Speaker 1: time on the first time you ever interviewed me? Oh

587
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: you did at the didn't I tell you this? On

588
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? And it was me and McConaughey. Yeah,

589
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: it was, Yes, it was a super Bowl. It was

590
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: the day before my show premiere. Yes, yes, And then

591
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: I went and I look. I tried to find it.

592
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: I wanted to find it to see, like, what did

593
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: you find? No, it was on MTV. It was on MTV.

594
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: Oh okay. It was a sports super Bowl themed special

595
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: hosted by my cousin Sal that we thought it would

596
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: be a good idea to do live the day before

597
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: my show premiered in San Diego. By the way, it

598
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 1: was seventeen years seventeen years ago. Yeah, it is crazy.

599
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: That's so wild. When you were working together more did

600
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: you ever you know we work on Frank anchors together

601
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: to the show. Do you ever argue about something like

602
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: if you want to go somewhere with a joke or

603
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: if you want to hit on something like? We never

604
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: argue about jokes. I don't think it's ever happened in

605
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: our lives now. We just have the same sense of humor.

606
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: Were raised in the same house. Yeah, but what about

607
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: whether to go for it or not? Like, do you

608
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: ever have moments where were like, I don't think we

609
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: should touch that subject not. I don't know who would

610
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: be more. I think we just at this point, I

611
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: do so many shows that I just have an internal

612
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: like just just for expediency's sake, I know what, Rarely

613
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: do we cross any kind of a line because I

614
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: kind of know what works and what doesn't. And uh

615
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: and I learned that the hard way, you know, But

616
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: we don't really have that. When was the first time

617
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: you guys worked together? When did you got when? When

618
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 1: when did it become like professional? You know? Well, I

619
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 1: went to a theater college and I was, you know, auditioning,

620
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 1: and I was like a bass baritone. So most of

621
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 1: my roles are still ten years ahead of me. Play

622
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,319
Speaker 1: like Judge Turpin and swing and Todd or something. But

623
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 1: I talked to Jimmy on the phone and he was

624
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: working on like ben Stein's Money or something. He was like,

625
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: why don't you come out and I'll like help you

626
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: talk to some people. And so I got to talk

627
00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: to a few different like producers. And first he worked

628
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: on the Chris Rock Show in New York, right, Yeah,

629
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: Then I did that too, and just like skipped around,

630
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 1: like learning different production jobs. We worked on The Man.

631
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: He was pa on The Man Show when we started.

632
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 1: So did you facilitate? You know? You were like you're

633
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 1: the older brother. You had some success and you were

634
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: like John, like Jonathan, let's let's go come on. Yes, Well,

635
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 1: I have an arrogance that anyone who's related to me

636
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,879
Speaker 1: is funnier than anyone else. By the way, I mean

637
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 1: clearly you're into everybody I meet. It's like I'm a son,

638
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: your well, your wife works here, your older son, your

639
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: oldest son, my oldest son, and then my cousin, your

640
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: cousin sal aunt chippy, and then I worked for security.

641
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: My niece and nephew worked here over the summer. So

642
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: son was just doing a prank phone call and both

643
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: of them are singing the theme song now for crank Anchors,

644
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: because without crank Anchors, my wife and I met on

645
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: that show in the original incarnation of it, so like

646
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 1: they wouldn't exist without this those prank Wow, how many

647
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: years can I can I do? Please? Do I want?

648
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: I want to come on and do a phone call?

649
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: We're ready? How long they go down? Yeah? How long

650
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: have you guys been married? Thirteen years? Thirteen years? Yeah? Amazing?

651
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: So wait, Jimmy, if you ever said a relative who

652
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 1: was like, hey, Jimmy, can I come, You're like sorry,

653
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: You're you're not really? Yes, it happens. Well, you know,

654
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: the thing is because once you've opened the open the door,

655
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: the floodgates are open, and now it's like, Jimmy, can

656
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: can I be a PA? I always look at it

657
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: this way. I look at it as, first of all,

658
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 1: what do you want to do? Because if you're looking

659
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: to be a star, I don't necessarily have a spot

660
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 1: for you here because you have to work your way

661
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: up and you're not just going to be on the

662
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: air on it now, if I was doing local radio

663
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,959
Speaker 1: or something. I try to tell to Oliver all the time.

664
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 1: But if you want to be like a producer, have

665
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 1: a career in in writing or something like that that

666
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: you can work your way up, then then we talk.

667
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 1: But if people sometimes people and you know how it is,

668
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: and it's not really limited to family friends as well.

669
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,399
Speaker 1: They just want a magic wand to be waived and

670
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: you know, everything to be great. And you know, I

671
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: have people who work here who you know, who work

672
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: their way up, and I can't shove somebody the head

673
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: of the line. John started as a PA. Everyone in

674
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: my family who works for me started on the lowest rung,

675
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: and it's so much less likely to sue each other

676
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: as part of one of the good things exactly. I mean,

677
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: there can be family members who like, don't take the

678
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 1: work more seriously, but like the greatest failure for me

679
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: would not be like writing a joke Jimmy didn't like.

680
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 1: It would be like not working hard for r You know,

681
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: did you ever be from the beginning like the terror

682
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,800
Speaker 1: in your mind? But when you were pitching Jimmy something,

683
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: do you ever feel like anxiety, like I'm gonna pitch

684
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: his fucking idea and I hope he likes it and

685
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 1: you get shot down and it's well, it's more anxiety

686
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 1: over like wanting to do the idea rather than like

687
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: anxiety over how he'll respond, Like if I want to

688
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: do something and he's like, I don't think it works,

689
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: then I'll be like bummed that you didn't get to

690
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: do it, you know, but it's still unfortunately his show.

691
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: One of my favorite stuff that you do is when

692
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: it's a little like The White House Correspondence twenty twelve.

693
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 1: You got pretty like you said some pretty crazy bit well,

694
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 1: and I loved it. And did you guys work together

695
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: on stuff like that? Yeah, at that time, John was

696
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 1: a writer on the show, and I'm sure worked on that. Yeah,

697
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 1: that as well. I wrote most of that. I know

698
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: that there's certain subjects that are more challenging, but politics

699
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,439
Speaker 1: does it feel more like it's like open season for you,

700
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: like you can just really go there. I mean, I

701
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: think one of the things that we grow up with

702
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: is the idea that politicians are public servants and if

703
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: they decide to get into it, that we don't have

704
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: to hold our criticism back. And now it's hard to

705
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,720
Speaker 1: hold your criticism back. And I really found I've found

706
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 1: that some of the things I used to be very

707
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: interested in, like sports, for instance, seem trivial to me

708
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: right now because of the other things that are going on,

709
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: and you know, we all we're all tired of talking

710
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump, but we don't feel like we can.

711
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: Each day there's another wheelbarrow full of nonsense that we

712
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: have to sort through and present, and it's just, you know,

713
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: from the beginning, the idea of the show was we

714
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: talk about the news of the day, and this is

715
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: the news. I remember a time where there was nothing

716
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 1: to talk about. You'd have to like come up with

717
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: some generic bit, and that just never happens anymore. Now.

718
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: Do you feel a responsibility to that though? Do you

719
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 1: ever have moments where you're like, I don't want to

720
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 1: talk about the show? Oh yeah, all the time, almost

721
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: every day, and I sit here and I've got the

722
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 1: TV on and and it's just like, oh boy, here's

723
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: another thing and another thing. But I also think it

724
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: is I won't say it's important, because I don't think

725
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: what I do is important, but I you know, ultimately

726
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 1: I'm there to entertain people. But I do think that

727
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: it's important to me to continually point out that what's

728
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: going on right now is not normal. And I think

729
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: I think with comedy you can make it digestible, and

730
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 1: people can watch cable news and they can get angry.

731
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: They can watch MSNBC and get really worked up, they

732
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: can watch Fox News and get really worked up. For me,

733
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,959
Speaker 1: I want to present these insane things that are going

734
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: on in in a funny way, and I think hopefully

735
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 1: it keeps people who might not be engaged engaged and

736
00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 1: it reminds them. But the great thing I do, Jimmy,

737
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: honestly is you've got balls and courage. Because yes, there

738
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: is funny, but when you know, when we're dealing with

739
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 1: health care and you know you're talking about your kid

740
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: and that all went down, I appreciate you saying it's

741
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 1: not an easy not courage. Really, it's not easy to

742
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: do the feeling of having no choice is what it

743
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: is for me. Like when there's a shooting in my home.

744
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,359
Speaker 1: Courage to put yourself out there. I wouldn't do that,

745
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? That's hard that that's personally

746
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,720
Speaker 1: very difficult for me. And you know that that that

747
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: that it's gonna get picked up and everyone's going to

748
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: talk about it, and you're gonna get made fun of

749
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: by people, and people are gonna revere you. You're gonna

750
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,919
Speaker 1: have You're gonna run the gamut, but you know that's

751
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 1: gonna happen, But you say, fuck it. This isn't that

752
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: important to me that I need to say this. I

753
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: don't feel like it for me. It's just I just

754
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: sometimes feel cornered and and I feel like this is

755
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: my only way out of this corner. Yeah, and how

756
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: can you you would regret it for the rest of

757
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: your life? Like not when you have the opportunity. I mean,

758
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: that is like what I'm saying. You have to tackle

759
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: these big stories. You know, after seventeen years of doing this,

760
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: how much gas is in that tank? Do you think, fume?

761
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I really don't know. I

762
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 1: know that in your bucket right now. Right now it

763
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 1: feels like, you know, there's momentum, and it's weird. Every

764
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 1: week and every month you just kind of like some

765
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: nights you just feel like you have momentum and some

766
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:34,399
Speaker 1: nights you don't. And one of the if there are

767
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: any good things about our current administration, it's that there's

768
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: always something to care about. There's always something to get

769
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 1: fired up about and to have an opinion about, and

770
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 1: that's not always the case. So for us, yes, there's material.

771
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 1: If I could wave a magic wand and make him

772
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,959
Speaker 1: go away, I would, you know. But since he is here,

773
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,840
Speaker 1: he does give us plenty of things. And I would

774
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 1: let Jimmy puppetteer on crank anchors if he needed to

775
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 1: work like that he needed, you know what, you know what,

776
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 1: and then we'll come off of this. But you know what,

777
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: the real issue I think is, aside from the policies

778
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: and the politics, the dissensitive that you were desensitized to

779
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: the insanity that it's happening. It's so in our face

780
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,280
Speaker 1: now that the things that you know eight years ago,

781
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 1: five years ago would have been oh my god, is

782
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: now just just scroll through, scroll through the scroll We're

783
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:37,760
Speaker 1: in a scroll through culture where nothing hits home anymore

784
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 1: because he's done his job in the sense that he

785
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: has desensitized us to anything that is that should be

786
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,959
Speaker 1: extremely impactful. Yes, and it's also it's just an interesting time,

787
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: I think for comedy because it's hard. It's not that

788
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 1: it's not that funny. I mean, it's part of what

789
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: I enjoy is. I know that it probably drives him

790
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 1: crazy that we're all making fun every night at eleven.

791
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: I love that I watches them. It does give me

792
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 1: a little bit of satisfaction. Oh god, all right, well,

793
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to keep you guys here for for much. Wells,

794
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: So so you know that I'm a I've been fly

795
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 1: fishing since I was six years old. Big fish. It's

796
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,280
Speaker 1: very proficient. It's a passion of mind. Fishing just in general,

797
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: is a passion of dry fly or what all of it? Really?

798
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: Of course dry, but dry is the ultimate. Do you

799
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: fish like we do? Yeah, but I still don't know. Shit,

800
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: you don't know. You know that we know that we're

801
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 1: not allowed to nimp fish or streamer fish, only dry

802
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: fly because our our mentor is Huey Lewis, who taught

803
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:47,320
Speaker 1: us to fish. Oh really, he doesn't tolerated very He

804
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: gets real angry fishing. But that's bullshit. Do river stuff,

805
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 1: or you have to do ocean. I love I love

806
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: bone fishing as well as drifting, floating, floating, floating. So

807
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,400
Speaker 1: we just we went not that long. I didn't catch anything.

808
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 1: I'm terrible at it apparently, but I love it. I

809
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 1: mean just being out on the water and it's the greatest,

810
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: it's the best. Okay, Socara, full disclosure. I was maybe

811
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 1: one of the first people that they ever sent their

812
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 1: food delivery service to. I remember this years ago. They

813
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 1: sent over the food. It's so good, I remember. And

814
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,800
Speaker 1: their little chocolates or their Probatic chocolates, all this stuff.

815
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: I know them very well. Socara is a food delivery

816
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 1: system and they formulate your plan and they send you

817
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 1: delicious meals, meals as well as they're super good, really good.

818
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,280
Speaker 1: I really like them. But they add also daily essential

819
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,240
Speaker 1: so they do some like supplements, teas, things that support

820
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: your nutrition. And I'm reading this right now. To boost results,

821
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:59,240
Speaker 1: try the best selling Metabolism super Powder, an all natural

822
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: remedy for bloating, weight gain, and fatigue. I need this

823
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 1: like directly in my veins. Can I get an IV

Speaker 1: my kids will really appreciate me until, like they're in

837
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,360

Speaker 1: Whether they'll be like, oh, okay, you're cool. Yeah, but

839
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 1: like for now, No, I mean the kids are pretty

840
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,280
Speaker 1: good kids, and I can't complain they're close in age,

841
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: so like and are they super close? Like our kids

842
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: are really like super close? Oh yeah, I love each other. Yeah,

843
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 1: you have older kids and younger kids like I do. Yes,

844
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 1: I have a sixteen year old and a baby. And

845
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 1: how do you feel that that sort of informed you

846
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 1: the second time around? Well, it's it's like two groupings.

847
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,920
Speaker 1: It gives you confidence more than anything. I think you

848
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:41,360
Speaker 1: forget all the actual like tips that you've learned along

849
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 1: the way. I found anyway, I was like, oh, how

850
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 1: do I do this again? And what? Oh? Yeah, right,

851
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 1: I have to Yeah, we have to put diaper cream

852
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: on after change but you do. What you do have

853
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:55,120
Speaker 1: is you know that you that these two children are

854
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,799
Speaker 1: now adults and alive, and that you did it the

855
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: first time and you'll be able to do it again.

856
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: And that for me because the first time around, I

857
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,239
Speaker 1: was a kid. You know. I had my my daughter

858
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: when I was twenty four, and yeah, right, and and

859
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing. And I didn't even

860
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 1: live with, not a family. I was on the road

861
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 1: working radio jobs and getting fired each time. And I

862
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 1: didn't have my parents. I didn't have my wife's parents.

863
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,480
Speaker 1: You know, it was just really me and my ex wife.

864
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: And and where I meant from the kid, No, I

865
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: wasn't away. I was away with the kids, with the kids,

866
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: like I worked in uh In Vegas, Phoenix, Seattle, back

867
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 1: to Phoenix, Tampa, Florida, Palm Springs, Tucson, Arizona, and then

868
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: to La So I was. I moved a lot of times. Wow,

869
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 1: And it was hard. It was hard. It's much easier

870
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 1: the second time. And like first baby, as a dad,

871
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,760
Speaker 1: you're like, I'll just heat some bottles up. I guess,

872
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,960
Speaker 1: or I think I think I'm helpful. I don't really know.

873
00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 1: Give this kid a sausage should be fine. All right,

874
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,359
Speaker 1: Well let's go. We do a quick thing. We ask

875
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 1: you guys to answer for your sibling. It's just okay,

876
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: quick and funny. Don't say it's funny until they last. Okay, okay,

877
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,800
Speaker 1: that's right. It's actually not that funny. It's just fun

878
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 1: for people to today. That should be a thing. So

879
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:22,280
Speaker 1: what would they choose? Okay, you, Jimmy, you do it first.

880
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: For Jonathan, would he want the power of invisibility or

881
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 1: the power of flight? Oh? Definitely flight? Flight? Nice? Nice?

882
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,000
Speaker 1: Why although I do have a theory that if we

883
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,600
Speaker 1: could fly, we wouldn't. We'd fly for like a like

884
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 1: a few weeks, and then it'd be like, oh god,

885
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 1: it's exhausting to fly. It would be like running, Like

886
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 1: you know, alts like how often are you running? You

887
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 1: just have one moment a few days into it that

888
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: really scares you and you're like, I don't know, you

889
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,319
Speaker 1: hit like an up draft, like I'm never fucking doing this.

890
00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:00,040
Speaker 1: I just went I ran into an electrical wire. I

891
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: don't know's I've noticed over the years that like if

892
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 1: I ever walk away from like a set where I'm

893
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,839
Speaker 1: directing or something, like, I immediately I don't expect other

894
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 1: people to turn the mics off, Like I immediately just

895
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 1: take my headphones off, because like I don't like with

896
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,400
Speaker 1: the idea of invisibility. I mean, yeah, there's a lot

897
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 1: of cool things you can do, yeah, but like I

898
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 1: don't want to. I feel like creepy. All right, So

899
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 1: then also both of you would be flight. You'd say

900
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,919
Speaker 1: he's flight too, Yeah, I think so okay to live

901
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: in medieval times as a royal or in future times

902
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:33,280
Speaker 1: as a cyborg. I think John would see the future. Okay.

903
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: I don't think I would really because I'm just thinking

904
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 1: your life expectancy would be very short. In medieval times

905
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 1: people are constantly killing. Well, you do have a shaddy,

906
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: so you probably be all right. But I would say

907
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 1: the future for you. I mean I feel like, in

908
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 1: thinking deeper about the question, all it comes back to

909
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:52,759
Speaker 1: is like my family, and is if if I was

910
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:56,360
Speaker 1: in the future, I'd be like, I don't have my

911
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,240
Speaker 1: family anymore, you know, like in the past you wouldn't

912
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: have the music. Can could you recreate? For me? It's

913
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 1: about cleanliness. It all about cleanliness, and I don't think

914
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:09,799
Speaker 1: I could deal with medieval I thought, yeah, if you

915
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:13,759
Speaker 1: go back to everything. I do this all the time.

916
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, do you know how terrible it would be

917
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,239
Speaker 1: to live in that time? When you walk through and

918
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: you're like, God, there's sort of this romantic idea that

919
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 1: it might be amazing. But I won't even go to

920
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: one of the Moosset medieval time shows. Now, I never

921
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:28,040
Speaker 1: know anti medieval time. So I was thinking, much fun

922
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 1: if I got transported back to that time, you'd want

923
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: to show off and like show all the future stuff

924
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: that you know, so you can seem like some crazy

925
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 1: wizard if I then I realized I would not know

926
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,760
Speaker 1: how to do anything. I'd be like, I think magnets.

927
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 1: I think you have to like let me show you

928
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:53,240
Speaker 1: a wheel dig I know metals involved, but like I think,

929
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 1: like there's electricity, but it's hard. It's all very hard.

930
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 1: But trust me, this is an obste question. I'm gonna

931
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 1: go shit in this hole. But what what what do

932
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,160
Speaker 1: you think you would be in the Old West? Like,

933
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:08,040
Speaker 1: like would you be a blacksmith? Would you be a gunslinger?

934
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 1: Would you be a saloon owner? Well, if those are

935
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: the three choices, it would definitely be a saloon owner.

936
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 1: All right, Who's who's stricter as a parent. I think me,

937
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 1: probably John. Yeah, probably John, I would say, yeah, yeah,

938
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 1: I feel like it. It's hard to tell. You always

939
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 1: feel meaner than you may be. But I'm also like

940
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:33,759
Speaker 1: large and mean Seemen family. Probably. If you ever see

941
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,239
Speaker 1: Jimmy like rail into his kids and you're like Jesus, well,

942
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: normal scolding, you know that that happens from time to

943
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,399
Speaker 1: time where you're more concerned for their safety, Like, hey,

944
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 1: daddy's on TV. Pay attention. Do you allow each other

945
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: to discipline each other's kids? Oh? Yeah, so, I mean

946
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 1: we never do, but I wouldn't have a problem with it.

947
00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 1: Like I think we're the kind of family who, like you'd,

948
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: indulge in whatever it was and handle it exactly the

949
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:03,960
Speaker 1: opposite way of how you deal with your Oh, we

950
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 1: allow that all the time. Okay, who gets annoyed more easily? Oh?

951
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 1: Probably me? But that's but we're both at a very

952
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 1: high level of getting annoyed. I'll just pick Jimmy on

953
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,120
Speaker 1: this one so that I don't have to take all

954
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 1: the heat for the being a bad parent. Who's the

955
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 1: better cook? Jimmy? Yeah, I do a lot of cooking. Yeah,

956
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: I have my moments, but I don't get ash. Do

957
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:31,440
Speaker 1: you ever use the I have an instant pot, I

958
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 1: have souv I've got a tandor rubbin. I've got a

959
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:36,799
Speaker 1: smoke or I've got a gas grill. I've got a

960
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:41,160
Speaker 1: wood fired grill. I've got a I have not Are

961
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: you going to do cook No? I don't really, I'm not.

962
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 1: You're not into the lifestyle thing. I love the idea.

963
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 1: I don't feel like I have anything new to contribute.

964
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:58,479
Speaker 1: I just make the Mason you can really Jimmy Kimmel, Yeah,

965
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: he'd be really good at makeing the cookbook, Like the

966
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:06,799
Speaker 1: whole look could be great. You could late night late

967
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 1: night SNA buy it. I just feel like all my

968
00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 1: chef friends would laugh at me. Okay, who can pull

969
00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 1: a better prank? Jimmy? Oh, yeah, it's kind of what

970
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,920
Speaker 1: I was doing. I mean it's like, probably, yeah, you're born,

971
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 1: refer back to the penis man, You're born. I'm trained

972
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: in the ways. It's like, okay, and then I mean,

973
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 1: who tells a better joke? Jimmy? Oh, I don't know

974
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: about that. I don't know that that's true. Telling and

975
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:38,319
Speaker 1: writing are two different things, I guess. But we still

976
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:42,439
Speaker 1: have still the rare like inspired moment where I can

977
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:46,399
Speaker 1: really like John pick spots. Yeah right. But like at

978
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,840
Speaker 1: one point, like on the first, like one of the

979
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 1: shows we worked on together, Adam Carolla, because I'm dry,

980
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: said to me, like, Johnny, do me a favor at

981
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 1: the end of every day, right down a list of

982
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 1: the things you said. You just make a note of

983
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,600
Speaker 1: whether it was a joke or not. And I was

984
00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:11,719
Speaker 1: like abusive big brother that Jonathan never asked for. But

985
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,720
Speaker 1: with Adam. I'll tell you a funny story about Adam.

986
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 1: There was one time all of Jimmy's friends were like

987
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,160
Speaker 1: part babysitter for me at one point or another, Like

988
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,040
Speaker 1: when I was sixteen, I'd come out and Jimmy would

989
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: let me answer phones at k Rock, and you know,

990
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:27,440
Speaker 1: it was like really fun. I'd get to go to

991
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,800
Speaker 1: all the concerts and hang out and all that stuff.

992
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:34,560
Speaker 1: And I remember like, for some reason Adam was nice

993
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 1: enough to like drive me from the station to where

994
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: Jimmy was. I can't remember the context, but it was

995
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:42,840
Speaker 1: right before I was going to go to this theater

996
00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 1: college and Adams like, oh, you're going to theater college. Hun.

997
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,799
Speaker 1: I was like yeah, And He's like and I didn't

998
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 1: know what was going to come from him. But he's like,

999
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 1: all right, well, uh, he grabs a CD out of

1000
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:58,200
Speaker 1: his console and puts it in. It's Oklahoma. He's like

1001
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 1: sing and I was like down the plane and I

1002
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 1: finished the song and he's like, all right, you can

1003
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 1: go to theater college. It was like his test to

1004
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:11,880
Speaker 1: make sure I wasn't going to ruin my life and

1005
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,000
Speaker 1: make a terrible, very practical in that way. But I

1006
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 1: did appreciate it, and I was like, oh, he's like

1007
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 1: his secret little theater theater passion. Well that then then

1008
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 1: you're obviously the more musical definitely, can you say, oh,

1009
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 1: we're it's all part of the like I'm about a

1010
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:31,440
Speaker 1: five and John's the ten. Yeah. And Christmas? Do you

1011
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 1: say you love the carols? That? Do you sing? Like?

1012
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 1: Are you to annoy everybody in life? Do you, guys?

1013
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: Because but the kids, the kids still ler into it?

1014
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: Do you guys fight? Ever? By the way, No, I

1015
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:47,760
Speaker 1: feel like never. There's certain parts of like the Little

1016
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 1: Brother dynamic which feel like you don't want to be

1017
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: disrespectful in that way? What about this? If you could

1018
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:59,040
Speaker 1: take something from Jonathan, meaning like a trait of his

1019
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: and take or something that like like I love that

1020
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:03,960
Speaker 1: about him. I wish would he get to keep it

1021
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 1: or I be taking it from No, no, no, he

1022
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 1: gets to keep it. That you you know, it's like

1023
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: like his musical ability, yes, oh really yeah, what about

1024
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 1: you with Jimmy? I think just his ability to have

1025
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:21,920
Speaker 1: confidence in what he's doing is like always like incredibly impressive,

1026
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,120
Speaker 1: like the kinds of like not to get into the

1027
00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 1: business stuff, but like the way he could present like

1028
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 1: an idea for a concept, like he'll just sell it

1029
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 1: right away in a way that is I'm not really

1030
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 1: talking about it in terms of just like oh, it's

1031
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:40,120
Speaker 1: good for your career. It's just like an impressive you know.

1032
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: It's interesting. It's interesting because we've done a bunch of

1033
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:46,840
Speaker 1: these now and that's like a fucking theme. The younger

1034
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: sibling and confidence because I have the same thing with

1035
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 1: with with my sister. If I could take something from her,

1036
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 1: it was like just her confidence or overall just confidence

1037
00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:00,560
Speaker 1: of of what she's doing in her you know, just

1038
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 1: her ability to sort of just say what I want.

1039
00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 1: Howard Stern talking to Billie Eilish her brother about like

1040
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 1: the same thing, but he was like some songs I write,

1041
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:12,160
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I wish she did it, because like

1042
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:16,840
Speaker 1: she has that ability to just like kill it. Yeah. Yeah,

1043
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:19,400
Speaker 1: but we have I think, you know, our relationship, we

1044
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:23,480
Speaker 1: have a very good relationship in general, but is complicated

1045
00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 1: by the fact that we work together and that I

1046
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 1: am John's boss and I have a similar thing with

1047
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:32,040
Speaker 1: my wife, you know, or I am the boss here

1048
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,280
Speaker 1: at the show, and it's it is. It is not

1049
00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 1: a position I relish in any way work. I just

1050
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: you know, I just am fortunate that Jonathan and my

1051
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 1: wife and my cousin sal and some of the other

1052
00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 1: people I work with understand the position that I'm in

1053
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 1: and that ultimately I have to make certain decisions, even

1054
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 1: if they're different from the decisions they would make you

1055
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 1: as a fan, ever have moments where it's like you

1056
00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 1: get pushback, Jimmy. Yeah, And I always feel like if somebody,

1057
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:12,160
Speaker 1: especially with John or my wife, feels strongly enough to

1058
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 1: push back, that I should probably just give them the

1059
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt, you know. And I think we

1060
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 1: do a pretty good job of picking our spots in

1061
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:26,200
Speaker 1: those scenarios, you know. And Molly is tough, you know,

1062
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 1: like it's not like a pushover kind of person. I

1063
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 1: am a pushover kind of person for sure, but I

1064
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,880
Speaker 1: think I like at my job now strongly wish I

1065
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 1: could well, Like if I go to sell something, I'm like,

1066
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 1: I understand why you might not like this idea. I

1067
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:46,920
Speaker 1: think it's good because I can be funny sometimes, but

1068
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 1: I think, like working at the show that I do now,

1069
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: where I'm kind of in charge, I do have like

1070
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 1: a clearer and better appreciation for like what it means

1071
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 1: to be who everybody goes to for everything, because it's

1072
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure and also it's it's relentless with

1073
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 1: like everybody's at your door. Everybody's like can I have

1074
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 1: this time? And you want to be like as respectful

1075
01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 1: to everybody as possible, but like to understand more clearly,

1076
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 1: like the pressure of it all like gives you a

1077
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 1: new perspective. Your importance in their lives are is outsized.

1078
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:25,480
Speaker 1: It is. It's for a lot of people that work

1079
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 1: at a place where you're the host, the executive producer,

1080
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,760
Speaker 1: the things that you say to them are a lot

1081
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 1: of times like things that they remember for the rest

1082
01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 1: of their lives. And like I don't go about my

1083
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:41,880
Speaker 1: day acknowledging that and so like when John is running

1084
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:45,240
Speaker 1: crank Anchors, you know, he gets to experience that a

1085
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 1: little and I mean not that Listen, I'm a bossy person.

1086
01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 1: I like being in charge. There's no question about it.

1087
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:53,600
Speaker 1: If I had to choose between being in charge and

1088
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:56,439
Speaker 1: not being in charge, But there are I don't love

1089
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,640
Speaker 1: when it carries over into our family life where it's like,

1090
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:04,280
Speaker 1: what are we doing for you know this? And I

1091
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 1: feel like like, well, I'm I'm not really in charge.

1092
01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 1: You know, I'll make the decision if you really want it,

1093
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:15,480
Speaker 1: but I don't necessarily feel like I was in charge

1094
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:18,640
Speaker 1: before I had this show. Well, does Molly carry that

1095
01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 1: over on into your relationship? Meaning like she makes she

1096
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 1: thinks she's expecting you to make no no, not with Molly,

1097
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:31,120
Speaker 1: but I mean she would rather make every decision well

1098
01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:33,560
Speaker 1: before we, before we anybodys have to ask a personal

1099
01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 1: like because Stern is like, you know, my idol Basically,

1100
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:44,480
Speaker 1: when Howard or Daniel Daniel Stern Daniel, so he's slipping

1101
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 1: with his bare feet on all that. By the way,

1102
01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:51,080
Speaker 1: I do love Daniel very fun, seems nice, but what

1103
01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 1: when was the moment because you idolize Stern obviously, like

1104
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,520
Speaker 1: what was the moment and when did that happen? Was like,

1105
01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:02,360
Speaker 1: holy fucking shit, Stern is like in my universe right now,

1106
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 1: like we are a boys sort of or he's emailing

1107
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,560
Speaker 1: like what is that moment? But you know, I always

1108
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,000
Speaker 1: loved Howard. Yeah, I mean since I was a kidding

1109
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 1: Adam Carolla, who was my partner on The Man Show,

1110
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:18,439
Speaker 1: he liked Howard fine, but it wasn't like something that

1111
01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:21,520
Speaker 1: he was passionate about. And we went on the show

1112
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 1: together the first time, and and and Howard took a

1113
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 1: liking to Adam and I was like, this is ridiculous,

1114
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:34,840
Speaker 1: you don't even care. So but then, you know, I

1115
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 1: think Howard sensed my enthusiasts as the years went on,

1116
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:40,760
Speaker 1: and we have a lot of common and we both

1117
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:42,440
Speaker 1: you know, I was I'm a radio guy. I think

1118
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 1: of myself in those terms, and we worked with a

1119
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 1: lot of the same people and went through a lot

1120
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 1: of the same things, and you just don't find too

1121
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 1: many radio guys, and so we have that basis. And

1122
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:57,720
Speaker 1: and also you know, I think he appreciates how much

1123
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:00,960
Speaker 1: I love him. Yeah. Of course, some of the parties

1124
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 1: that happened, you know, years ago, just observing him, I

1125
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 1: related to him in a lot of ways because like

1126
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:09,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, he's seeing still what He's like the

1127
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:13,400
Speaker 1: same like tall, nerdy guy that I am like awkwardly

1128
01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 1: wandering around at a party, like you just kind of saw, like, oh,

1129
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:18,720
Speaker 1: that's who we are. It's also not the guy you

1130
01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 1: want to get on the wrong side of because he's

1131
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:24,680
Speaker 1: just so smart. Yeah, although he's calmed down a lot,

1132
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 1: a lot less vicious. Yeah. If there's one thing that

1133
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:33,479
Speaker 1: you could take from your sibling to alleviate something from them,

1134
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 1: like an anxiety, like an anxiety, I would say anxiety.

1135
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,600
Speaker 1: I think John has a lot of anxiety, and I

1136
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 1: would take that from him. Why do what? What? Like?

1137
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:46,720
Speaker 1: Where is that? Is that? A deep seated non Hoffman.

1138
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: I went to this place called the Hoffman Institute that

1139
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 1: changed my whole fire. I'm doing my own podcast about

1140
01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:57,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what. I felt very self conscious as

1141
01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,640
Speaker 1: a kid, you know, like I was like not, I

1142
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,400
Speaker 1: just never had like a lot like I was nervous

1143
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: with girls and stuff. Probably like I hate to blame

1144
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 1: my mother. It was definitely very like hey, who's that

1145
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:12,840
Speaker 1: you were talking to? She likes you, you know. It

1146
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 1: was like the opposite of the mother's like I don't

1147
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:18,920
Speaker 1: want you to go. It was like she likes you,

1148
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,480
Speaker 1: like I don't. Now, I don't want to do anything.

1149
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:25,000
Speaker 1: But I would suggest the deeper message being sent was

1150
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,800
Speaker 1: if you show interest in a woman or a girl,

1151
01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 1: I am going to embarrass you. So don't show any

1152
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:35,800
Speaker 1: interest and stay with me forever in my house. Yeah,

1153
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 1: which I understand. I relate to that too, especially Yeah,

1154
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:41,960
Speaker 1: and there's a certain situation of your parents. I do

1155
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:44,960
Speaker 1: relish in some of the embarrassment. And at one point

1156
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,520
Speaker 1: I told like, I feel like the worst part of

1157
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,800
Speaker 1: my parenting is I've like buried these deep lies. Like

1158
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 1: I told my son when he was born, we put

1159
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,560
Speaker 1: out this birth announcement that I put I like photoshopped

1160
01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 1: him into a peanut shell. And then when he was

1161
01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:04,120
Speaker 1: old enough to like look at this picture and say,

1162
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:06,000
Speaker 1: why am I in this peanut shell and I'm a baby,

1163
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 1: I was like, well, we were born, like my wife

1164
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:10,439
Speaker 1: actually is like you were born in a peanut shell

1165
01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:14,800
Speaker 1: and you came out of you, Like I added, like

1166
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,800
Speaker 1: that he came out of my butt nuts shell, and

1167
01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:20,640
Speaker 1: so you like they're hard to digest. He's nine, but

1168
01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:24,200
Speaker 1: you know, not entirely sure, it's not true. And then

1169
01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:27,840
Speaker 1: another time I told him, like, there's one he was

1170
01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:32,160
Speaker 1: like exploring bad words, not like he's you know, they're

1171
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:36,720
Speaker 1: both pretty like uh controlled with that stuff. But I

1172
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:38,600
Speaker 1: was like, well, there's one word you should never say

1173
01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:43,720
Speaker 1: ever or you will explode. It's the Q word. And

1174
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,240
Speaker 1: I didn't have a real word that to back up

1175
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 1: the Q word. I mean there's some minor like bad

1176
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:53,640
Speaker 1: words that you can assign to aque, I guess, but

1177
01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:58,080
Speaker 1: it wouldn't make you explode. And uh So then like

1178
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:03,160
Speaker 1: that was a two year burn, long, long, long con

1179
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:05,840
Speaker 1: and I was just waiting for him to ask, like

1180
01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 1: what the Q word is? And my answer would be, well,

1181
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:10,800
Speaker 1: it's uh, don't tell anybody I told you this, but

1182
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:16,160
Speaker 1: it's cook. And then he would say what's a cook?

1183
01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 1: And I would say it's someone who commits a clime. No,

1184
01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:25,160
Speaker 1: And so I like I had to like force him

1185
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 1: to ask me. I was like planning, like how can

1186
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:29,600
Speaker 1: I get him to ask me? But he was like

1187
01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to even think about it, because I do.

1188
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,680
Speaker 1: And then I tried that. I gave him the big

1189
01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:37,760
Speaker 1: reveal and he was like, I know that that's not

1190
01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 1: what it is. I know it's something else. So now

1191
01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:42,160
Speaker 1: I like don't have I don't have a backup plan.

1192
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:46,040
Speaker 1: What about what would you alleviate from your brother, Jonathan?

1193
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:50,240
Speaker 1: I'd like to take you know, the like pressure off

1194
01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:53,720
Speaker 1: him from like everybody else. You know, if I could

1195
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 1: like take the family on a trip and have him

1196
01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 1: not be the one harassed about like whether it went

1197
01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,920
Speaker 1: well or not like that? Why I feel like that's

1198
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,000
Speaker 1: such a bummer When you're like this generous person, you know,

1199
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 1: it's like such a shitty byproduct of that. You know that, well,

1200
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:14,800
Speaker 1: you're also a big gift giver. You know. What happened

1201
01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:17,640
Speaker 1: is really the story I think you're referring to is

1202
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 1: we all went on a trip to our like our homeland, Ishkia,

1203
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 1: this island off the coast of Oh you're southern. You're southern, Yes,

1204
01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:30,360
Speaker 1: And we and we went to the We brought the

1205
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:35,440
Speaker 1: whole family and and my dad. At the end of

1206
01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:41,479
Speaker 1: this very elaborate and expensive trip, I over here, my dad.

1207
01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:43,840

Speaker 1: we did. Your father said the house was a disaster,

1211
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:57,320
Speaker 1: and I just looked over at him. I'm like, oh

1212
01:07:57,400 --> 01:08:02,480
Speaker 1: he did, did he? He just it was like he

1213
01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:07,280
Speaker 1: was caught. No. The weird extra dynamic my dad has

1214
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 1: is that like, because we all have guilt in us,

1215

Speaker 1: he doesn't want like the person he's talking to I
