Speaker 1: in the halls of the Capitol.
Speaker 2: Come on, brother, big these my keys man, not the
Speaker 2: one that that that made them, but the one that
Speaker 2: raised them.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean. I'm trying to get them right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Hey, Woody, before we get back to the your
Speaker 5: great places in LA I had a question for you
Speaker 5: as an agent. You know, you look at some of
Speaker 5: these young kids come in the NFL that I represent,
Speaker 5: and and you're going back to your start, you know,
Speaker 5: when you out on Sheers Is in your early twenties,
Speaker 5: and the fame you had back then and the stardom,
Speaker 5: was it hard looking back and kind of jumping right
Speaker 5: in and here you are one of the famous shows
Speaker 5: of all time.
Speaker 4: Did you were you equipped to deal without the right
Speaker 4: way back then? Looking back?
Speaker 6: No, No, not at all. I think it's a very
Speaker 6: difficult prospect.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 6: You know you've seen it. You've seen it with all
Speaker 6: these people you represent. Once they get their head full
Speaker 6: of fame. And I always say, look, it's no problem
Speaker 6: people telling you you're great, that's fantastic. The problem is
Speaker 6: when you start to believe it. You know, you need
Speaker 6: to not you know, to get sucked into this. It's
Speaker 6: really it's a battle against the ego and I mean
Speaker 6: I faced it. I still face it. You know, it's
Speaker 6: just a it's a really difficult battle. You know, everybody
Speaker 6: telling you you're the cats meow and you and you
Speaker 6: just gotta try to not absorb it.
Speaker 3: They catch me out. That's that's a new one.
Speaker 5: And did you and did you have good advisors back
Speaker 5: then wood as far as agents and managers helped the
Speaker 5: money and all that early on, or you just kind
Speaker 5: of jumped right in and kind of learned as you went.
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I kind of learned as I went. But
Speaker 6: now I got a great team. But Marshawn, you must
Speaker 6: have had to deal with that in a big way.
Speaker 6: You know, everybody telling you how great you are, and
Speaker 6: if you, uh, you know, if you just start to
Speaker 6: look feel superior to everyone, then you're then you're in trouble,
Speaker 6: all of you guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, I had. I had to be honest with you.
Speaker 3: I had. I had a great team.
Speaker 2: And it was really, uh, it was really my family,
Speaker 2: Like I had some good family members throughout my process
Speaker 2: that really, you know, kept me level headed. So it
Speaker 2: was very, very, very much interesting. But my mom, on
Speaker 2: the other hand, that's a different story because she took
Speaker 2: that shit, and she ran with it. And now I
Speaker 2: would believe my mother's my mama more famous than I am.
Speaker 3: Everybody know and love Mama Lanch.
Speaker 4: But what do you hear's a great story about Marshawn. You
Speaker 4: know it's been.
Speaker 5: It's been knowing Marshawn has saved most of his money
Speaker 5: and just spent endorsement money. And he's always kind of
Speaker 5: gone to me and my wife actually about some big purchases.
Speaker 5: One year they win the Super Bowl. He says, hey, fresh,
Speaker 5: they call me fresh. It's fresh. I really want this
Speaker 5: Lambeau And I said, how much is it? He says
Speaker 5: six twenty five and six six twenty five fucking thousand.
Speaker 5: He's like yeah, I said, hell, No, hung up the phone.
Speaker 4: I said no.
Speaker 5: He called me back a couple weeks later, Dude, I
Speaker 5: really want this lamba And I said, Marshawn, it's six
Speaker 5: hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. No, call me again,
Speaker 5: and I said, Marshawn. He said, look, Doug, I don't
Speaker 5: ask for a lot, but like, I really want this car.
Speaker 4: I saw, here's the deal.
Speaker 5: You got three appearances, two and a grand apiece that
Speaker 5: if you do these three appearances, for the six hundred,
Speaker 5: then buy the car because you didn't want to do them.
Speaker 4: I said, okay, go do them. And he did it.
Speaker 5: And one was like an autograph thing, one was something else.
Speaker 5: And he bought the car. Uh lime, lime green Lamborghini.
Speaker 5: He said, some kind of green, looks.
Speaker 1: Like a skittle, looks like one big skittle.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, that was just one big purchase advice
Speaker 5: you ever had.
Speaker 4: But he did it. The three appearances.
Speaker 2: Why you out here airing out seek this is what happened.
Speaker 1: I love, you have to beg doug for you know,
Speaker 1: spend your own damn money. Man.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, that's not it. So so I called.
Speaker 2: I called Shylyn. She was like, nah, I just don't
Speaker 2: think it. You know, it makes sense. And at the
Speaker 2: time I was stuck in his mindset where I'm still in,
Speaker 2: Like if I came, buy it twice and be comfortable.
Speaker 3: Then I then I don't do it.
Speaker 2: And when I did those, I was at a point
Speaker 2: in time where I could do it twice and it
Speaker 2: wouldn't be no, I mean, wouldn't be too much of
Speaker 2: an issue.
Speaker 3: So I pulled the trigger on him.
Speaker 6: What and uh, has that been a gratifying thing? For you.
Speaker 3: Oh it's still I still got it.
Speaker 1: That was the wrong answer. Would he he was supposed
Speaker 1: to say material things don't move me anymore more spiritual.
Speaker 2: That's my baby, man, that's my baby.
Speaker 1: By the way, Would he just back to fame? I
Speaker 1: mean you you, I think the first time you you
Speaker 1: don't even know this. I was a kid running around
Speaker 1: and Hannah at the Hannah Airport with uh with I
Speaker 1: think Chris Christofferson and this guy James Meeker, Jimmy Meeker,
Speaker 1: jim jj Meeker and uh and and and met you
Speaker 1: many many moons ago. But you've been out in Hawaii
Speaker 1: for forever. I mean, is that I mean, is that
Speaker 1: part of sort of the I mean we talk about
Speaker 1: the spirituality, talk about being level headed, talking about addressing
Speaker 1: the issues of fame and not getting too full of yourself.
Speaker 1: You've notably sort of pulled away from being in the
Speaker 1: center of that spotlight, at least out here in California, right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Yeah, I went to uh MAUI.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they they don't They just don't care about that
Speaker 6: kind of thing. So it's really it's cool. Uh. But
Speaker 6: then you know, now I've been more in Austin, Uh,
Speaker 6: you know, I still go to Maui as well, but
Speaker 6: I've been more in Austin, and I gotta say it's
Speaker 6: just a better, better life. It's it's hard moving in LA.
Speaker 6: Just the traffic alone is its brewal. Although I do
Speaker 6: have a motorcycle. But uh anyway, what uh what were
Speaker 6: you doing there?
Speaker 1: We're involved in the Hontera rats. We're still involved in
Speaker 1: the Honter ratch.
Speaker 6: Oh that's right. Yeah, so I met you. We talked
Speaker 6: about that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a long time, long time, but you were out there,
Speaker 1: but you were you were a Hawaii guy for a
Speaker 1: long time though, right, I mean you spent a decent
Speaker 1: part of your life out there, right, oh.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was in Costa Rica before that.
Speaker 6: I just decided I wasn't gonna raise my kids in
Speaker 6: l A. You know, I just I couldn't do that.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 3: That makes me.
Speaker 2: That made me feel a little better because I went
Speaker 2: and got me a spot in uh uh wild Lure
Speaker 2: out there close to North Shore.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's exactly what I mean.
Speaker 2: It's the quality of life out there is solid as fuck.
Speaker 2: Like you, I mean, I can get up, go walk
Speaker 2: through the food trucks, and I mean, don't nobody care. Hey,
Speaker 2: what's up one time?
Speaker 3: Man?
Speaker 6: Everybody, everybody, I'm picturing you on the surfboard.
Speaker 2: Oh hell no, man, I don't know why, but that
Speaker 2: water in that damn board and my because I got
Speaker 2: impeccable balance. I mean, my balance is ommaculate. But for
Speaker 2: whatever I get up on that damn board, I can't.
Speaker 3: I can't do it.
Speaker 6: But it is worth it.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to though.
Speaker 1: One thing. Talking about trying things and and and can't
Speaker 1: do it. I mean, you've you've belie that in your career,
Speaker 1: You've you've been a risk taker, You've tried. You've been
Speaker 1: across the genres in terms of comedy and drama. You've
Speaker 1: worked with some of the most iconic actors obviously uh, directors, Uh,
Speaker 1: and you know, I mean obviously something like deep drive
Speaker 1: that motivates you, that still has you going after all
Speaker 1: these years. Doug did the intro. We could have still
Speaker 1: been talking about your bio and all these extraordinary movies
Speaker 1: you've been in, but you're still at it. You're out
Speaker 1: there right now filming. Uh. You could dial it up,
Speaker 1: you can. You can hang out in Austin with those
Speaker 1: three kids, retire, But what's what's the drive what's the
Speaker 1: motivation you're still trying to beat up? Where where's that
Speaker 1: balance in terms of your own personal ambitions, the ego
Speaker 1: you talk about the ego, uh, your own desire to
Speaker 1: sort of be fully expressive. Where are you on that journey?
Speaker 6: Well, that's a good question. Uh, you know, I I
Speaker 6: guess I feel you know, there's just so many good things,
Speaker 6: good stories. You know, I'm really I'm a story teller
Speaker 6: in a way, you know, so I just want to
Speaker 6: be a part of these stories. And they just they
Speaker 6: keep coming down the pipe. I can't even keep track
Speaker 6: of them all. It's like I feel extremely blessed to
Speaker 6: you know, just continue to you know, continue to work,
Speaker 6: to continue to do what I love. But I do
Speaker 6: love it. I mean I would if I hit the lottery,
Speaker 6: I could hit that California lottery, I'd still be doing it.

Speaker 4: We always say on the show.
Speaker 5: Are my tagline at Marshawn's is almost like run borrow
Speaker 5: time And and what we love is a lot of
Speaker 5: people in this world live to work, and a lot
Speaker 5: of people work to live.
Speaker 4: We've all been blessed to live to work.
Speaker 5: Although Gavin sometimes probably thinks he works to live because
Speaker 5: his job sometimes will get to him.
Speaker 4: But me and Marshawn at least live to work. And
Speaker 4: I know you do too.
Speaker 5: Uh take me through the cell phone thing, because I'm
Speaker 5: no bullshit. I get probably twelve hundred texts a day,
Speaker 5: so when I do walk away as an Asian, I
Speaker 5: can't wait to take this phone and throw this thing away.
Speaker 4: And you've lived without a cell phone.
Speaker 1: I don't believe that is that true?
Speaker 4: I love that?
Speaker 6: Yes us to five years now four and a half
Speaker 6: years maybe. Uh yeah, I just was it became like
Speaker 6: another appendage and I was just I was using it

Speaker 6: I was like, oh, I don't know. Two weeks two
Speaker 6: weeks later.

Speaker 6: happened and everything that used to just you know, overwhelm me.
Speaker 6: And you know, like I just had a whole pilla
Speaker 6: home work that I couldn't address. Well, yeah, you gotta
Speaker 6: be feeling that, big time, Governor.
Speaker 1: No, it's interesting. I mean I'm feeling in a different way,
Speaker 1: which you'll appreciate. And I love the story about your daughter.
Speaker 1: I've got four kids, and two of them with the
Speaker 1: cell phones. I can't take it, Woodie, I can't and
Speaker 1: they don't listen to me. We had a contract. I
Speaker 1: literally did a three page contract. I went to this,
Speaker 1: I went. She turns fourteen. We go to the Verizon store.
Speaker 1: She's emotional. I'm emotional. She calls me, I'm the first
Speaker 1: call she ever made. Right there in front of the manager.
Speaker 1: She's looking at us like we're nuts. We're both crying.
Speaker 1: We take a picture together. She promises and pledges based
Speaker 1: on the contract, to never break it, no bullshit. Three
Speaker 1: days later we were doing an addendum to the contract and
Speaker 1: then the whole good thing throwing out. So what I
Speaker 1: just did, wouldie? It's great to be governor, brother? What
Speaker 1: did I just do? I banned cell phones at least
Speaker 1: in schools, And now she doesn't talk to me. She
Speaker 1: can't stand me. So happy about that, dad, Just this.
Speaker 6: Week, you did that. That is just happened. Yeah, that's fantastic.
Speaker 1: No, it's like bringing it. It's like we're I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, Marshaun, I know you're the young guy, but
Speaker 1: like what a he dug and I going to school
Speaker 1: back in the day with a TV set or something.
Speaker 1: I mean, these things are literally they're supercomputers. And we
Speaker 1: never let a kid walk into school with a TV set.
Speaker 1: I mean they sit there on YouTube all the all
Speaker 1: day and all these damn apps. To your point, you said, anyway,
Speaker 1: well done, Weddy, well done.
Speaker 2: Yeah, big ass box TV with that VCR in there,
Speaker 2: you roll that in there. Oh, you know it's gonna
Speaker 2: be a good day class.
Speaker 6: No, I tell you, it seems like it takes precedent
Speaker 6: over any Like you could be sitting there talking to someone,
Speaker 6: but always that phone has pressing. Oh I got a call,
Speaker 6: so okay, go ahead. I thought we were talking. I
Speaker 6: frequently say to people when they get on their phone,
Speaker 6: like as we're talking, and I said, listen, can you
Speaker 6: can you say hi to whoever you're talking about and
Speaker 6: talking to and tell them? You know, I really wish
Speaker 6: I had your undivided attention like they do. It's made
Speaker 6: jump inside the phone for that to happen.
Speaker 4: No, but what is sad? You walked through the airports
Speaker 4: and I did.
Speaker 5: The day I did that, I was kind of I
Speaker 5: had some time I was walking through and no bullshit,
Speaker 5: I think everybody in the entire airport was on their phone.
Speaker 4: Nobody.
Speaker 5: People don't even order food without being on their phone.
Speaker 5: No one's talking. Everybody's got their phone, whether it be
Speaker 5: sitting down waiting for the flight, walking to terminal. I'm like,
Speaker 5: this is this could be a great movie right there.
Speaker 5: I mean, not one person does not have a phone on.
Speaker 3: They make it.
Speaker 2: They make you get that QR code where you got
Speaker 2: to take a picture of it to order your food.
Speaker 3: They got your boarding pass on the phone.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's so much shit going on it make
Speaker 2: it so impersonal.
Speaker 4: And so what he grown up? Grown up in Texas?
Speaker 3: What were you?
Speaker 5: Did you play football? Were a football fan or what'd
Speaker 5: you play growing up?
Speaker 6: Well, when I I got this, I didn't play then
Speaker 6: because I was there till twelve and then we moved. Ohigh.
Speaker 6: But then I did start playing football and basketball, and
Speaker 6: I did some track and I also did a little
Speaker 6: bit of wrestling. Uh you know, I don't like to
Speaker 6: say it, but kind of an all round athlete.
Speaker 1: No, we go, there we go.
Speaker 6: But I also did another movie you might want to
Speaker 6: check out called Champions and it's a basketball movie as well,
Speaker 6: and it's it's one of my favorite movies I've done.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 1: By the way, how did you get into this? I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean obviously as a world class athlete. As a kid,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it was hard. I'm sure to
Speaker 1: move in the acting direction. But was there an acting
Speaker 1: bug and acting coach? Was there someone you wanted to
Speaker 1: be when you're growing up and you're like, that's that's
Speaker 1: that's my north star? How did this whole thing start?
Speaker 6: Well, you know what happened. I didn't have the itch.
Speaker 6: I was in high school and at one point after
Speaker 6: Elvis died. This is really showing you how old I
Speaker 6: am because I was in high school at the time,
Speaker 6: and then I got this. Uh you know, you used
Speaker 6: to be able to send away to the TV guide.
Speaker 6: You send a nickel and you get five records, but
Speaker 6: you got to buy him the rest of your life.
Speaker 6: And I got one of them was Elvis's Olden Golden Oldies.
Speaker 6: And I never used to sing in you know, public
Speaker 6: or anything to other people, but except for sometimes on
Speaker 6: the football bus. So cut to I'm in that library
Speaker 6: and it's before Christmas, and there's a lot of people
Speaker 6: in there and it's very bestive kind of atmosphere, and
Speaker 6: they're like, what do you do your Elvis? A couple
Speaker 6: of guys from the team and I'm like, there's a
Speaker 6: lot of people in here. I can't do my house well,
Speaker 6: just do it quiet. I don't know how to do
Speaker 6: it quiet. And there's like, come on, man, anyway, thank
Speaker 6: god they convinced me. So I was like, bless my soul,
Speaker 6: who was wrong with me? How many the fuzzy tree?
Speaker 6: My friend sending him out? Wild? Is the boom and love?
Speaker 6: I'm and anyway, I start. Everybody starts coming around and
Speaker 6: they're like clapping, and before you know it, I jump
Speaker 6: up on the table and my hotbeat. So he's scarce,
Speaker 6: you know, and the librarians clapping. At the end, everybody
Speaker 6: claps and up comes uh and the clapping did help.
Speaker 6: And then up comes Robin Rogers, who's, you know, one
Speaker 6: of the most beautiful girls in the school going out
Speaker 6: with you know, like marsh On, like the greatest athletes
Speaker 6: and uh and and she says, I'm robbing Rogers. I say,
Speaker 6: I know, I know who you are. She's I'm the
Speaker 6: vice president of the drama club, and I think you
Speaker 6: should come try out for the theater. And that changed
Speaker 6: my life.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that was it.
Speaker 5: And then and then you go from cheers to a
Speaker 5: decent proposal, which is I mean, that line is still
Speaker 5: comes up today thirty five forty years later in terms
Speaker 5: of that whole process.
Speaker 4: So that's incredible, right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I was while I was on Cheers, I
Speaker 6: must say, because I was on six years before I
Speaker 6: got to do a movie, and it was a harder
Speaker 6: thing back then to transition into movies, and I was
Speaker 6: really starting to feel like, Okay, I guess my only
Speaker 6: part is what he boy did. I'll never do anything else.
Speaker 6: It was really kind of looking that way. So it
Speaker 6: was a real awesome thing when I, you know, got
Speaker 6: to well, first I did doc Hollywood Michael J. Fox,
Speaker 6: and then I did White Men Can't Jump, and then
Speaker 6: Indecent Proposal, and then and then Natural Born Killers, and
Speaker 6: then you know, I just kept luckily going on. But yeah,
Speaker 6: you know, lucky lucky.
Speaker 3: I wasn't working way with Wesley.
Speaker 6: Oh great. I love him. Just an amazing guy. Funny,
Speaker 6: really funy.
Speaker 3: Oh man.
Speaker 2: I had a I was at some the thing for
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl in Vegas and I ran in to
Speaker 2: him and I'm like, oh ship, like like damn all
Speaker 2: was you know, kind of like starstrucking ship and you know,
Speaker 2: I'm I'm I'm like big on fucking with people.
Speaker 3: So I did my hands like this.
Speaker 2: In the full mold, like I'm.
Speaker 3: Like, oh shit, He's like, yeah, what you thought? I
Speaker 3: wasn't ready?
Speaker 6: Ship.
Speaker 2: I heard about you. They call you Beachmoe or something.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, Ship, Like I thought he was going
Speaker 2: to kick this ship out of me or something. Though,
Speaker 2: I'm like, damn, Like you still move like that, like
Speaker 2: oh that shit was hell of funny, Like god damn.
Speaker 6: But oh yeah, he's like a seven degree black belt man,
Speaker 6: I mean he is, and it's the truth, Like still yeah, yeah, amazing.
Speaker 1: Got hey what he with all these I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: with the Coen Brothers obviously you know Oliverus. I mean
Speaker 1: some you know, next level greatness. But there's got to
Speaker 1: be I imagine somebody you haven't worked with that you're hoping
Speaker 1: to work with, a project that you sort of you're
Speaker 1: trying to sort of position yourself or just like spiritually
Speaker 1: figure out a way to land there. Or are you
Speaker 1: just at a point where now it's like, man, whatever
Speaker 1: happens happens, you feel like you you know, you've proven
Speaker 1: things to yourself, or I mean, is there something you
Speaker 1: really you're really hoping to conquer next or work or
Speaker 1: someone work with next.
Speaker 6: Well, I've been I've been writing a musical believe it
Speaker 6: or not, and uh so I want to make that happen.
Speaker 6: You know, it's all moving forward. But uh in terms
Speaker 6: of and i'd like to work with, I think probably
Speaker 6: like Paul Thomas Anderson or you know Scorsese, you know
Speaker 6: that kind of thing, would be Guarantino, you know that
Speaker 6: kind of I just worked with Jim Brooks, who's a
Speaker 6: good buddy of mine, but I always did want to
Speaker 6: work with them. So yeah, so yeah, there's just there's
Speaker 6: great directors. There's more, you know, there's actors I'd like
Speaker 6: to work with, but the great directors really excite me.
Speaker 5: You know, Hey, Woody, we got a great up and
Speaker 5: coming actor here. I was, you know, from Marshawn and
Speaker 5: the movie Bottoms, and he's going to film a movie
Speaker 5: next week and it's funny.
Speaker 4: Would he No? Bullshit?
Speaker 5: There's like three or four kids that came up to
Speaker 5: Marshawn at my daughter's game, a volleyball game in Vegas
Speaker 5: the summer and said, hey, aren't you the guy from Bottoms?
Speaker 5: And now Marshawan. People are not they're not remembering the
Speaker 5: football career, but the movie career. So number one, we
Speaker 5: need to do something with you and Marshawn Woody that
Speaker 5: would be epic, you guys, may be a road trip
Speaker 5: through Budapest or Bali or something.
Speaker 3: You got.
Speaker 2: You gotta you gotta let me get my you gotta
Speaker 2: let me get my steps here first, You know what
Speaker 2: I mean?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 5: But what advice would you give him starting out as
Speaker 5: a young actor, not so young kind of young.
Speaker 6: It sounds like he's been good already. But uh no,
Speaker 6: I don't, I don't. I mean, I just said I
Speaker 6: don't know, like I guess. Uh. I always thought theater
Speaker 6: was a helpful way to figure out how to do
Speaker 6: this ship, you know, but I don't know if you're
Speaker 6: gonna want to do theater. But if you're doing movies already,
Speaker 6: why not just stay the course.
Speaker 5: Why don't we get your buddy, your buddy McConaughey and
Speaker 5: Marshawn and you three can do it, do a killer.
Speaker 4: He's get in the airstream and go, well, you know, me.
Speaker 6: And Matthew are We're going to start in February a
Speaker 6: show together called Brothers where we play ourselves. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: and yeah. So you know Marshawn might want to slip
Speaker 6: through on that when that's in Austin.
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, Like I said, it would be a pleasure.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe I run by your by your your consumption
Speaker 2: lounge and then I could go down there, get my
Speaker 2: mind right and then and get some big fucking ideas.
Speaker 6: There you go happy to You know, I gotta get
Speaker 6: your info, and you know, but we gotta we gotta
Speaker 6: be able to continue this conversation. But while we're on
Speaker 6: the subject, we're on the subject.
Speaker 1: I mean, what he's about to say, if you're hungry,
Speaker 1: go down there. He's gonna say, what what are you
Speaker 1: gonna say? This coming?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I got permid You're hungry, are thirsty? Thirsty Jesus.
Speaker 6: But I do think that you know that bill you got.
Speaker 6: I guess ab seventeen seventy five.
Speaker 1: You remember the bill of her that you were.
Speaker 6: That's a crucial one. I mean, I got to say,
Speaker 6: you know, I have the most beautiful dispensary in the world,
Speaker 6: no question, And we were struggling just to get by.
Speaker 6: The taxes are insane, the excise taxes fifteen percent of
Speaker 6: total taxes, around thirty five And you got like you
Speaker 6: got you got dispensaries folding all around the state. You
Speaker 6: got from thirty eight hundred growers, one thousand of them
Speaker 6: this year did not renew their licenses. I mean, the
Speaker 6: whole legal businesses struggling and were being made extinct by
Speaker 6: the overregulation and the crazy taxes. Like nobody. How was
Speaker 6: it that just two months ago the guns were not
Speaker 6: no excise hacks on guns and ammunition until July. And
Speaker 6: that's now eleven percent. We're at fifteen percent and you're
Speaker 6: talking about jumping it up to nineteen percent. Now I've
Speaker 6: become one of those guys who's always in your ear.
Speaker 3: I know that's all good.
Speaker 1: That God, by the way, hit him again.
Speaker 6: Close our doors. It's I mean, who's gonna If the
Speaker 6: most beautiful dispensary can't make it, then this whole end here,
Speaker 6: you doo, And I will say one other thing. It's
Speaker 6: crazy that people don't be Why is bars can stay
Speaker 6: open till two am, but dispensary's gotta close by ten crime?
Speaker 1: Let's unpack this.
Speaker 6: You can't get a pothead off the couch. I mean,
Speaker 6: you know, I mean, we're not committing crime.
Speaker 1: All right, Let's unpack this. Marshaan Doug, I'm about to
Speaker 1: unpack this.
Speaker 5: Let's unack layers a lot of layers, Woody, to what
Speaker 5: you did before you begin. Govin, don't take away in
Speaker 5: my Sunday afternoon chill spot. Govin, don't take away my
Speaker 5: Sunday happy spot.
Speaker 3: And let me go ahead and file up that.
Speaker 1: Ye know, how the hell did I end up with
Speaker 1: you three on this damn topic?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 1: First of all, Woody, you're dealing with the guy that
Speaker 1: did the initiative to legalize, Okay, So I just want
Speaker 1: to know who we're dealing with contextually while you bring
Speaker 1: up oh shit.
Speaker 6: I want to pat you on the back.
Speaker 1: Okay, But that's serious, man. I mean a lot of
Speaker 1: politicians back then. I mean now everybody's rushing and saying
Speaker 1: they were always on board, but no one wanted to
Speaker 1: touch this issue. And we took it on in the
Speaker 1: biggest state in the country. And we were also mindful
Speaker 1: that Colorado was the only other state. We want to
Speaker 1: learn the lessons on the taxation, and we have state taxes.
Speaker 1: Here's the key state taxes that were a step lower
Speaker 1: out of concern about the over taxation regulation that said,
Speaker 1: here's the thing that became the biggest challenge and is
Speaker 1: currently the biggest charge localism, meaning we had to allow
Speaker 1: the cities to have flexibility and their own regulatory framework.
Speaker 1: California is so big. That was part of the agreement.
Speaker 1: And then they're layering taxes on top of the state
Speaker 1: taxes and regulations in terms of time matner in place
Speaker 1: along the lines of what you just said at the
Speaker 1: local level and that stuff that we can't necessarily unpack,
Speaker 1: so we can control. We can control. That said, I'm
Speaker 1: deeply mindful we have cannabis cafes in California. People think
Speaker 1: this is a cannadi's cafe bill. We have them, but
Speaker 1: the cafe side, you can only bring in food prepackaged food.
Speaker 1: You can't make food on the premises. And so this bill,
Speaker 1: what he is referring to, would allow us to prepare
Speaker 1: food on site and also allow ticketed events so you
Speaker 1: can have some entertainment as well. And so you know,
Speaker 1: I'm processing it. We're also reforming. We got to reform
Speaker 1: the whole system. Couldn't agree with you more. We recognize
Speaker 1: that the world we created is competing now against us
Speaker 1: because a lot of unintended consequences what we did, the
Speaker 1: illegal Marke. It is still proliferating, and a lot of
Speaker 1: these growers are struggling. So all that being said, I
Speaker 1: got what seventy two hours figure out what the hell
Speaker 1: to do with this bill? But uh, you made it.
Speaker 6: Well, just let us, Yeah, I mean you're gonna not
Speaker 6: let stoners get hydrated and have munchies. I mean they
Speaker 6: don't make sense. What harm could it do? And what
Speaker 6: harm could it do to stay open after ten o'clock
Speaker 6: at night. I got a suggestion. I gotta suggest you
Speaker 6: have me and Doug and Marshall. Why don't you have
Speaker 6: the three of us be part of your cannabis committee?
Speaker 6: Will be, I'll go down to Sacramento. I'm a busy
Speaker 6: motherful I'll come. I'll go down there. We'll go down
Speaker 6: and we will figure this ship out with you, and
Speaker 6: we'll have fun at the same time.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: So you say we're gonna solve a problem and have fun,
Speaker 1: I ain't interested. I ain't I forget about that. Yeah, Now,
Speaker 1: we want to create problems, and then we want to
Speaker 1: we want to blame other people, and then we want
Speaker 1: to hire lobbyists to to to screw them up even more.
Speaker 5: But Woody, that's a great idea, We'll throw a good
Speaker 5: friend Snoop on the committee, So be me, you Snoop
Speaker 5: and Marshawn.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how the hell?
Speaker 4: What do you how?
Speaker 1: How do you think it's possible with it with all
Speaker 1: of you surrounding me and guys like that, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to sign this damn bill. How do you think
Speaker 1: it's possible. I didn't say what I was going to do.
Speaker 1: I just said, how do you think?
Speaker 5: Hey, but but Woody, you'll love this and I'm not
Speaker 5: diverting from this that diplomatic Hey, Woody, my my biggest
Speaker 5: pet peeve of the NFL has been all these years.
Speaker 5: When so when Marshawn was playing, you know you could
Speaker 5: go you could go drink Hennessy or tequila or Jack
Speaker 5: Daniels after games your body's broken down, but you couldn't
Speaker 5: smoke pot. They'll give you tort all shots, long ass
Speaker 5: fucking needles and shoot you up with all the damage,
Speaker 5: but you can't smoke weed. So I was one of
Speaker 5: the biggest proponents going to the NFL. So wait a minute,
Speaker 5: you can't. You can't sit there and smoke after a game.
Speaker 5: Would you rather have someone drink jack or tequila and
Speaker 5: get in a car or rather having some sit in
Speaker 5: the couch, heal your body, you know, light up a
Speaker 5: little bit, get your body feel good, and get ready
Speaker 5: for next Sunday. So the NFL finally came around, and
Speaker 5: thank god they did, you know what I mean. So again,
Speaker 5: me and Morshaun, we're we're sort of the sub committee already,
Speaker 5: but we're glad to add you the subcommitte.
Speaker 1: What he will be a senior advisor to your junior. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's the OG in this space.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: He was the one planning m seeds back in the day.
Speaker 1: You guys, this is before you guys were born.
Speaker 3: You know who we're dealing with here for sure.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but I think it is an important thing because
Speaker 6: a lot of these growers are going under, a lot
Speaker 6: of the retailers are going under. And the illegal business
Speaker 6: is now bigger than the legal business. And and uh,
Speaker 6: you know, they don't pay taxes, they don't they don't
Speaker 6: have regulations, they don't have a license fee.
Speaker 3: And they got some good bud.
Speaker 6: And they got good bud and they and all they
Speaker 6: and you don't shut them down. You just get them
Speaker 6: a fine. I'm like, why don't I do that? That
Speaker 6: sounds better why am I going to legal route?
Speaker 1: Uh? So well done.
Speaker 6: You know I'm not gonna harangue you anymore, but I
Speaker 6: do want to be able to continue this conversation and
Speaker 6: maybe it should be on on me and Teddy's podcast.
Speaker 1: Well said, Now I appreciate get.
Speaker 2: Him on your home turf and Dan just just go
Speaker 2: getting just go crazy, just go.
Speaker 1: But what these point is right? I mean, one one
Speaker 1: simple bill is not going to solve the broader industry issues.
Speaker 1: And by the way, what he just The good news
Speaker 1: is we're finally seeing progress nationally. I mean, after years
Speaker 1: and years got stubborn, no one was moving. Now it
Speaker 1: seems like folks are moving and it's becoming less ideological.
Speaker 1: Uh even I mean, you know, even got I don't
Speaker 1: want to bring up politics, but this former president that
Speaker 1: seems to be on board of Florida initiative. So it's uh,
Speaker 1: it's interesting how the politics have moved. But but now
Speaker 1: the regulations have to catch up to it where the
Speaker 1: public is overwhelming.
Speaker 6: You did get it all started, to your credit, and
Speaker 6: God bless you for doing it, but it shouldn't be
Speaker 6: the Michigan. Michigan, with one third population, now has more sales.
Speaker 1: Uh, man. That talking point, by the way, I had
Speaker 1: to look that up in your right.
Speaker 4: Hey, Woody, Woody, keep bringing the baby, did.
Speaker 1: You guys set Woody up? Is this a whole? This
Speaker 1: is a whole.
Speaker 3: Damn.
Speaker 1: This is one of those programs where you got it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, would he delete my email I sent you
Speaker 4: this morning? Okay, delete that?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 6: No, I appreciate all the good ship you do. Uh, Governor,
Speaker 6: and uh I really you know, you're doing so many
Speaker 6: good things, and you're on top of so many good things,
Speaker 6: from you know, climate and control to keeping freaking hel
Speaker 6: phones out of the classroom. And let's not let this
Speaker 6: industry die, you know, No, don't let.
Speaker 3: It slip through your fingers.
Speaker 1: Don't let us slip through. So, Marshan sounds like you're
Speaker 1: gonna slip down. You're gonna do some reconnaissance. You're gonna
Speaker 1: tell me exactly what what what he needs. And I'm
Speaker 1: sure you'll be advising me this afternoon on this damn bill.
Speaker 6: I think you should sign the bill at the woods
Speaker 6: by the way.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the worst idea.
Speaker 4: What I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 5: I'm a I love my day activities, man, I'm not
Speaker 5: bullshitting my Sunday there one day.
Speaker 4: It was dude.
Speaker 5: The three hours I spent through I could have spent
Speaker 5: about twelve. It was just lovely, man. It was just
Speaker 5: it was It got me, It brought us, brought us
Speaker 5: back to a Costa Rica travels. I mean, you just
Speaker 5: thought we're in the rainforest and it was just you know,
Speaker 5: some beautiful people walking around. It was some good smells,
Speaker 5: some good vibes. It was everything.
Speaker 4: Man, it was nice. And you know me, I like
Speaker 4: my Sunday's guy.
Speaker 6: Well, we gotta do we gotta do this. Yeah, next
Speaker 6: time of a Sunday you.
Speaker 4: Know, absolutely.
Speaker 1: No pressure, Gavin, No, I know, I'll serve the first appetizer.
Speaker 4: Hey, let me ask a question.
Speaker 5: Your podcast is killing it and hopefully you're going to
Speaker 5: give us some advice for ours. But how did that
Speaker 5: start with? Did Ted call you and say I'm doing this?
Speaker 5: Did you call him? Did you guys get together? And
Speaker 5: is there anybody else you would have done that with?
Speaker 4: Or how did that come to be?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I don't know. I had no desire to do it.
Speaker 6: I don't like to add to my work. I'm a
Speaker 6: lazy mofow and in fact, I'm incredibly I'm like a
Speaker 6: good worker and a hard worker, but I'm a world
Speaker 6: class loafer. Yeah, I mean I can tee up a
Speaker 6: lolligag the best of them. But Teddy called me and
Speaker 6: he's like, hey, man, do you want to do a
Speaker 6: podcast together? And I was like, well, if I get
Speaker 6: to hang out with Teddy, it's worth it, you know.
Speaker 6: So it's been fun that we've had some great ones.
Speaker 6: And I think maybe the Flea one. Flee's a good buddy.
Speaker 4: Mar By the way. I listened to that last night,
Speaker 4: Oh did you? Yeah? I did. What a great episode.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 4: Flea is unbelieva.
Speaker 5: I met him a couple of times, but what a
Speaker 5: I mean he talked about that that yoga retreat and
Speaker 5: I was laughing. He said, ten hours doing a yoga stance, Marshawk,
Speaker 5: He's in some it's almost like Aaron Rodgers drinking or
Speaker 5: smoking the wush to whatever it is, the lascas and
Speaker 5: Flee sitting there doing a yoga post gal for ten hours.
Speaker 5: And then he said it changed his life and he
Speaker 5: went back again. He said that he got anxiety. What
Speaker 5: am I doing here? But he's stuck it through in
Speaker 5: it it made sense. But no, great, that was a
Speaker 5: great episode what.
Speaker 6: Heah, oh cool man. Yeah. I love that guy. He's
Speaker 6: one of the most pure individuals. I was with them
Speaker 6: one time, you know, they played I Forget where. It
Speaker 6: was some big city and he's checking out of his
Speaker 6: hotel room right and he's cleaning up the bed and
Speaker 6: the you know, cleaning, cleaning up here and there. And
Speaker 6: I'm like, you know someone's coming in there here just
Speaker 6: after we leave to do just what you're doing now,
Speaker 6: and you're leaving a tip for them, a big tip,
Speaker 6: and he goes, yeah, but I don't feel right, you know,
Speaker 6: I really like to make sure that it's not too
Speaker 6: messy for them. I'm like, this guy has such a
Speaker 6: pure he's a pure individual. I love that.
Speaker 1: I love that.
Speaker 5: Hey, what what do you you got to If you
Speaker 5: you know you're a lower for me, dode, trust me.
Speaker 5: I can shut it down and do nothing for a
Speaker 5: long time, well like three hours.
Speaker 1: Hanging out of woodies. I mean, this is like the
Speaker 1: hell is that?
Speaker 5: Now that you're retired, Marshall, maybe I could take some
Speaker 5: time off. Hey, wood who's your If you had to
Speaker 5: take a killer road trip? Who are three or four
Speaker 5: people you have must do when you're in that you've
Speaker 5: known forever, he said, I got to have these three
Speaker 5: people going with me.
Speaker 6: Well, i'd say Matthew McConaughey, Owen Wilson probably probably flee. Uh.
Speaker 6: You know, you're starting to get a big car there
Speaker 6: or ready. I think I think maybe just four of
Speaker 6: us might be good.
Speaker 1: And a driver. I'm just offering. That's just some advice.
Speaker 6: Hey, if you want to drive man, man, I'm just
Speaker 6: talking about you'll need a driver.
Speaker 3: For that crew.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's true. I shouldn't be driving that.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't think Devin know how to drive them.
Speaker 1: Oh you're going there? Really you're doing that? You're doing
Speaker 1: the politician doesn't know how to drive things.
Speaker 4: How many years have you dot?
Speaker 1: We're talking about this? I think it's in we're here
Speaker 1: with Woody Harrelson. We want to talk about his inspirations.
Speaker 6: But I agree, how many? How many years since you
Speaker 6: got behind the wheel?
Speaker 1: Come on, man, Jesus, what the hell? This is a
Speaker 1: this bad? What are we doing the commercial break here?
Speaker 1: Don't we have to read an add or something?
Speaker 5: No, in fact, we didn't tell you a guy for
Speaker 5: two hours a day about the way.
Speaker 1: By the way, here's my segue. Were you and ted
Speaker 1: did you guys stay close all these years or did
Speaker 1: you guys? I mean, was there sort of a decade
Speaker 1: where you sort of had to reconnect? When what was it?
Speaker 1: Did that show sort of connect you guys Bondy from.
Speaker 6: We would we would hang out off and on, but yeah,
Speaker 6: we definitely, uh you know, we grew apart. Uh with
Speaker 6: all those guys. You know, I'd see them sometimes, George
Speaker 6: or Rea or Teddy or whoever. But it's it's been
Speaker 6: a great thing because it's given me the chance to
Speaker 6: now every day, or not every day, but at least,
Speaker 6: you know, when we're actively doing shows. Yeah, I gotta say.
Speaker 6: I was like, I thought, what an easy you know,
Speaker 6: you talk to people. You know, I've been listening to
Speaker 6: smart let us say. This seems easy. You turn the thing.
Speaker 6: But uh, it's it's some work. It's some work because
Speaker 6: I'm sure you got another one after this one. I mean,
Speaker 6: you gotta just keep rolling them. And they said forty five.
Speaker 6: I said forty five. I can't do forty five. I said,
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what happened about twenty and then then no,
Speaker 6: twenty is not gonna do. So I said, all right,
Speaker 6: that's why it's Woody sometimes it's ten days and then
Speaker 6: Woody sometimes because I can't do forty five, I could
Speaker 6: do nineteen.
Speaker 4: But what doy we gotta do?
Speaker 5: We got to do either your show or our show again,
Speaker 5: but we got to do it in person.
Speaker 4: How about that?
Speaker 5: We got to get every together in studio or at
Speaker 5: your at the Woods in La in the courtyard, in
Speaker 5: the patio.
Speaker 1: Did you see there's a beat he ain't ever gonna
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be allowed track me down, Jesus being wrong.
Speaker 2: Get you a little contact, hard man.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that there's no illegalities about that. No, no, no,
Speaker 6: none of your people are gonna be up about a contact.
Speaker 3: You know, I was in the car.
Speaker 5: Have you always been have you always been this kind
Speaker 5: of I mean as a kid too, did you ever
Speaker 5: get stressed out or anxiety? Have you always been just
Speaker 5: kind of chill and go with the flow, and and
Speaker 5: and and just laid back?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 6: I think in some ways, i'm uh a personality trapped
Speaker 6: in a b persona. Uh. I actually I'm not entirely.
Speaker 6: I mean I'm pretty laid back. I mean I I
Speaker 6: really can just relax. But uh yeah, as a kid,
Speaker 6: I was pretty chuck. I'm just I'm just very in
Speaker 6: the moment.
Speaker 5: So in the podcast you talked about almost kicking the
Speaker 5: ship out of assuming on the ski slopes.
Speaker 4: Is that a true story?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 4: Yeah, awkward pause.
Speaker 6: I used to have a lot of fights when I
Speaker 6: was younger, quite a lot. I don't know why. Just
Speaker 6: people seem to find me. You know, I'm lucky. I
Speaker 6: never fought West, by the way, marshawn, I don't want
Speaker 6: to fight West. Luckily that never happened.
Speaker 3: No, So they were just telling me that you did.
Speaker 3: Uh what was it? A Wildcats?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's how we we that's how we first met.
Speaker 2: Okay, and that was a football movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: It was like with Goldiehn where she coaches a school
Speaker 6: and uh, you know inner city in Chicago, and you know,
Speaker 6: I'm the only white kid on the team, and uh,
Speaker 6: you know, it's just a funny little comedy. But but
Speaker 6: I met Wes doing it and I was like, this
Speaker 6: guy is pretty freaking awesome. Was he was very unique
Speaker 6: and very brilliant, you know his mind, even then he
Speaker 6: was twenty three, he was quite brilliant.
Speaker 2: So you find your because white man can't jump and
Speaker 2: then you say in the Wildcats, you're the only uh,
Speaker 2: the only white kids. So you seem to find yourself
Speaker 2: in that position pretty often.
Speaker 6: Huh, well, yeah, that's how. In fact, when I was
Speaker 6: first learning basketball, I went to the other side of
Speaker 6: the tracks, to the to the really where all the
Speaker 6: good players were playing, and that's where I developed my
Speaker 6: game and started learning. And uh, you know, got a
Speaker 6: really good friend who helped me a lot with you know,
Speaker 6: my dribbling skills, and uh, I don't know, I got
Speaker 6: to get back into it. I got I know, it's
Speaker 6: the best form of exercise, you know, I don't I
Speaker 6: don't know what's better. It's phenomenal.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's all.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it complete segue. But related to game, I just
Speaker 1: can't help myself because I've got to know Steve Schmid
Speaker 1: a little bit. But you did you did game change,
Speaker 1: I mean you you played Steve, do you guys? I
Speaker 1: mean you get to know him before you did that.
Speaker 6: Or you just study the god Oh yeah, oh yeah,
Speaker 6: I spent time, I shill. I talked to him just
Speaker 6: the other day. Yeah, I'm I'm I think that is
Speaker 6: one of the most amazing guys. Just talk about a
Speaker 6: brilliant political mind. I mean, the things he can elucidate
Speaker 6: that I have no freaking clue about. You know, have
Speaker 6: you uh you spent some time with him?
Speaker 1: No, he's I mean and Marshawn Douguman, I know what
Speaker 1: we're talking about. But what he did this series on
Speaker 1: Game Change, but it was he played Steve Schmid, who
Speaker 1: is one of the country's most you know, I don't
Speaker 1: want to say notorious, but he's one of the brightest
Speaker 1: is what he says. Political consultants out there, But he's piercing,
Speaker 1: He's tough. He's able to analyze, as you say, would
Speaker 1: he complex things and then distill it down and explain
Speaker 1: things in a way that if you can explain him.
Speaker 1: And he's not ideologically rigid. He's injured with former Republican
Speaker 1: but he's very independent in his mindset, has strong opinions,
Speaker 1: expresses them. And obviously Game Change he was working for
Speaker 1: another campaign, but it's I know he's a legend out here,
Speaker 1: would he he's a legend out here? Don't cross them?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Now, what's gonna happen with you in twenty twenty eight, Well, I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna be working. I think I got this opportunity line
Speaker 1: cook down at the West Hollywood Man, And as long
Speaker 1: as that minimum wage keeps going up and up and up.
Speaker 1: I'm okay, brother.
Speaker 6: Which we gotta give you credit for?
Speaker 5: No, I tell you what I'm Marshawn calls Gavin Batman.
Speaker 5: So get Marshawn. What's Galvin doing at twenty eight?

Speaker 5: all came together.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 5: The great governor here when he was mayor, helped help
Speaker 5: Marshawn out with a few things with the league back
Speaker 5: in the day. Would he let's just say, there's a
Speaker 5: a few minor traffic stops in Culver City that we
Speaker 5: had to make a couple of calls to two twelve
Speaker 5: Park Avenue to help out. They might have found a
Speaker 5: few things in the car, would you know what I mean?
