1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Hey, do you know where you are? I? Sure? Do

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: you listening to another episode of Bombing with Eric Andre,

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: where I talk with friends, comedians, musicians, and other creative

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 1: people about their worst moments on stage. We're talking about

5
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: the spiciest moments. So today it felt right to sit

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: down with the host and creator of Hot Ones, Sean Evans.

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: Dear friend. We both took a trip down memory lane

8
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: about a bombing moment. We experienced it together. Let's get

9
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:24,440
Speaker 1: into it.

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: Bombing Boming with Eric Andre.

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: All right, well, so what's a bomb for him? Just

12
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: a shitty interview.

13
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 3: Shitty interview.

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: When you said that it clearly hates white people.

15
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 3: When you said that, that was immediately the thing that

16
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 3: I thought about. You know, it's like about bombing because

17
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 3: you know, you think hot Ones would fly off the

18
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 3: rails all the time, but it's usually a very positive

19
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 3: shoot experience, you know, like, no matter the emotional rollercoaster throughout,

20
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 3: it usually ends in a hug. So I don't really

21
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 3: have that many So of this is uncomfortable kind of interviews.

22
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,400
Speaker 3: When I look at the cattle the hot Ones catalog, Yeah,

23
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 3: but that one with you me and Vas, Yeah, if

24
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 3: I look back on the hundreds of interviews that I've

25
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 3: done in my life, that's the one that crystallized is

26
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 3: maybe the most.

27
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, he clearly doesn't like to do press. I was

28
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: kind of like I would have turned to him and

29
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: be like, you don't have to do this, Like this

30
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: was just to promote your stuff, Like none of us

31
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: have to be here. You don't have to be here, right,

32
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: if you don't want to promote your stuff, just go oh,

33
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: go away here, like go somewhere else.

34
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: In his defense, though, I remember the whole conceit for

35
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: this thing was so stupid.

36
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: So I think what was happening he was confusing, was

37
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: super confused. I didn't really know what it was. What

38
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: were we supposed to do? What the purpose together? So

39
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: here's what I think happened.

40
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 3: Wece used to do those interviews would be like Mac

41
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 3: DeMarco talking to Asap Rocky or something. You're like two

42
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 3: musicians talking shot. So I think complex saw that. I

43
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 3: was like, Oh, we need to do our version of that,

44
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 3: but we should leverage our hosts and Bob, you know,

45
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 3: like it's when people start making decisions that have nothing

46
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: to do with making a good interview or making a

47
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 3: good video. It's motivated by other things, you know, yeah,

48
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 3: but or like just we're going to put our hosts

49
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 3: like leverage our complex brand, put our like we're gonna

50
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: take the magic of this thing, but insert a certain

51
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: like this is ours, and who knows what that means.

52
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: They can spin it off, sell it different ways or whatever,

53
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 3: you know. But I remember thinking that's so stupid, because

54
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 3: the reason the Vice thing kind of works is it's

55
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 3: two musicians talking shop or two comedians talking shops. Right,

56
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 3: introducing a host, it's like putting pickles on peanut butter

57
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 3: and jelly sandwich. It makes no sense, and it actually

58
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 3: flies in the face of like the exact thing that

59
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 3: makes that whole thing work right, and it it inserts

60
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 3: just a distracting element to the whole thing. So I

61
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 3: remember thinking on its face that this is dumb, that

62
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: this is purposeless. And then even the sets like all

63
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 3: spaceshipped out and beard like it made no sense. So

64
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 3: I actually maybe even like kind of understand were coming from.

65
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 3: But I almost like barely, Like I remember three minutes

66
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 3: into that being like, oh, I can't wait to get

67
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 3: in the car.

68
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.

69
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: I was like, this is tense, and he clearly doesn't

70
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: want to be here, but you know, before the cameras

71
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: turned on, he was like sweet as pumpkin pie. When

72
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: I was just talking to him, like before we started shooting,

73
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 1: he was like, I was like, what are you listening

74
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: to lately? He's like, oh, Joni Mitchell.

75
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 2: I was like what.

76
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: And then like as soon as the camera started, there

77
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: was like a one eighty c change. It was like

78
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: very tense and like but I could tell he was

79
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: also like it was like shtick, like he was trying

80
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: to be like edge Lord kind of like you know

81
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: in a way and like militant, but like not in

82
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: a comedic way. So I was like trying to like

83
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: cut the tension, and I was like, I think in

84
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: the middle, I was like what is this?

85
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 3: And then I think in the YouTube kind of ended up.

86
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 3: I felt like kind of trading some things too, and

87
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 3: so then I kind of felt like I was in

88
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: the middle of something.

89
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, well, I was like, shit, am I

90
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: in Like I felt like I was in the principals office.

91
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: I was like, what a.

92
00:03:58,800 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: What am I in trouble for?

93
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: That's a good way of putting it.

94
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like I'm here to promote, like a

95
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: dumb eleven minute talk show idea.

96
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: But what you but what you said is something that

97
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 3: I always think about, Like if.

98
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: I don't remember, I don't think I ever watched it.

99
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: Neither did I I didn't, I don't think it or whatever.

100
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, that sucked. And I was doing

101
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: like a few things press wise that my publicist this

102
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: is like in the beginning, you just say yes to

103
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: everything right career, and there was a few things I

104
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 1: did that I regretted. So I was just it was

105
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: in that era in the early stages of the show

106
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: where I was like I did something. It was like

107
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: nylon or neon or one of these like fashion kind

108
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: of and they like there was like a fashionista kind

109
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: of Bruno character there, like dressing me up in some

110
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: like thing. And I was like, I don't really, I

111
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: don't model or wear this shit, and they were like, oh,

112
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: just do it. And I looked at my publicists, I

113
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: was like, can I do it? Like ironically, but then

114
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: you don't get to pick the pictures. You don't select

115
00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: the pictures, so you better enjoy what you are where

116
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: and what you're doing because you don't get to pick.

117
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 1: There's no editor. You're not in the edit. So, uh,

118
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: it was around that era that I did that, and

119
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: I was like, I gotta like be careful about saying

120
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: yes to everything because that was a fucking bummer. What

121
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: was your takeaway from it? And have we given enough

122
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: context as the audience and what the fuck we're talking about?

123
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: Ryal?

124
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we kind of set it up. It

125
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: was just it was trying. It was trying to be

126
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 3: actors on actors, but they inserted a host for no

127
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 3: reason and then it went sideways, which of course it

128
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 3: was going to do, you know, but what you said,

129
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 3: I do kind of I think about that sometimes when

130
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 3: someone comes in, because you never know what they're gonna

131
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 3: come in with, you know, like they can be you know,

132
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 3: like oh, I'm in a new phase of my like

133
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 3: artistic journey and I'm come in like you know, and

134
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 3: sometimes I'm like, dude, I'm just trying to do a

135
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: commercial for you.

136
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally. Yeah. Well it felt disingenuous because I saw

137
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: how he behaved before the cameras turned on and then

138
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: he like put on a put on an act and

139
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: I was like, no, you're way more interesting yourself. You're

140
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: way more intriguing and likable and relatable being yourself. Like

141
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: when I was talking to him off camera, I was

142
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: like I was leaning in. I was like fascinated, and

143
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: then he was. So it was a bummer, you know.

144
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: It was like rebel without a cause. Though it wasn't

145
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: like it wasn't it wasn't activism. It was just like.

146
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: Nihilism.

147
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 1: It was nihilism. What was your takeaway? I didn't. I

148
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: didn't have I don't want to watch it again. Yeah,

149
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: it's probably not that when watch it, it was it

150
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: was just a feeling in the room.

151
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was probably more yeah, like less tangible

152
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 3: than but but I don't I mean philosophically the way

153
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 3: I look at interviews the same way as movies, like

154
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 3: they should either be good or really bad, you know

155
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 3: what I mean, Like the middle of the road doesn't

156
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 3: do anything for me. So like sometimes those things are uncomfortable,

157
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 3: but I never when I walk away from him, I'm

158
00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 3: always like, well that's you know, it's compelling.

159
00:06:59,640 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: You know.

160
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so and then I try not to take myself

161
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: too seriously or like whatever when I walk away from

162
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 3: those things. So that's just like kind of fine.

163
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: But is that the worst did I experience? Your biggest bomb.

164
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, I think that's that's like if I

165
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 3: look back while it was happening, the feeling that I

166
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 3: had where I was almost I barely remember because I

167
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: was just kind of like disassociated the whole time.

168
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: But fine, I was like, oh this thing. But thinking

169
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,559
Speaker 1: about getting in the car, you seem just like, huh

170
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: great anyway, and I was like, maybe this is like

171
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: every other day for you, getting like curmudgeon. Well sometimes

172
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: because musicians in it happens, yeah, because like, uh, celebrities

173
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: are lunatics. It's like the majority of them. They're like

174
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: severely mentally ill.

175
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 3: And just doing an interview. So bizarre because then you

176
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 3: meet people for the first time, and then you have

177
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 3: to create this trust, this rhythm, this energy, this chemistry

178
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 3: in this ridiculous context, you know what I mean. That's

179
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: what makes it so. But you always walk away with

180
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 3: those things learning something thing like even walking away from that.

181
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 3: You know, the same way that you were talking about

182
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 3: putting yourself in a bad situation with the Nylon thing,

183
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: like same with me. It's like, oh, well that was

184
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 3: a bad situation. I could see it coming from a

185
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 3: mile away. I did it anyway, and it went as

186
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 3: badly as I thought it was going to go. So

187
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 3: then that makes you think, all right, in the future,

188
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 3: I can if trust your instincts on something like.

189
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: That and.

190
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 3: Exactly, and if you can't see the concept clearly, then

191
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 3: don't do it, you know what I mean, like if

192
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 3: it's if it's messy at all, And so then you

193
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 3: start to think about, all right, well, I need to

194
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 3: control these things a little bit more so you can

195
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 3: walk away from those things with certain lessons and but overall,

196
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 3: I just think, you know, try your best to research somebody,

197
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 3: put it, put together an interview that you hope works,

198
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 3: and I always stay true to that process. So then

199
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 3: if it doesn't go according to plan, then that's okay.

200
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 3: I did my best, you know, and go on to

201
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 3: the next one. There's always the next one.

202
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there's always something new. And yeah, I guess

203
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: failure is the greatest teacher. But I just say no,

204
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: crust your instincts and just saying no, And like that's

205
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: not just for career stuff. It's like throughout life. You know,

206
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: I'm such a people pleaser, and I just go yeah, yeah, sure,

207
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: and then hey, you want to go do this, like yeah, yeah, sure,

208
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: and I don't know why the fuck I did. I

209
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: learned it from my parents. But like even if you

210
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: want to say yeah, yeah, sure, I have to like

211
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 1: practice like just like not saying anything at first, right,

212
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: and then saying something a vague in between, so I

213
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: can sleep on it and really check in with my

214
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: gut and see how I feel.

215
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 3: What do you see? The What do you see is

216
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 3: the value of a promo cycle, you know, like the

217
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 3: value of even doing press, of even sitting down and

218
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 3: like doing interviews with people, especially back then, there's a

219
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 3: million for the show.

220
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.

221
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 3: Like you're like, what's even Like, Oh I get on

222
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 3: this and somebody's gonna see me and actually go to

223
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 3: the show. Do you think that that happens?

224
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah?

225
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean without marketing. Look at Barbie. Look at

226
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: a Barbie movie, right, it's a fucking genius. Well, they

227
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: do two things that was brilliant with the marketing. Hey, Barbie,

228
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: is this like tried and true intellectual property that's been

229
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,959
Speaker 1: around for one hundred years that's controversial. So controversy brings

230
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: media attention and internet attention to it. And uh, it's

231
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: already like this established brand and and they combined forces

232
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: for some reason, for a very smart reason. With the

233
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: Oppenheimer marketing there was like all these like conjoined memes

234
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: and they both, you know, they're both making two billion

235
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: dollars at the box office. So I think marketing is

236
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: crucial inundated with so much media.

237
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's such a fractured media landscape, you know

238
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 3: what I mean. Like back in the day, there was

239
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 3: like a couple a handful of shows you know that

240
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 3: people are tuning into TV channel exactly. Now there's like

241
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 3: a million that.

242
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to market even harder than ever.

243
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 3: I guess.

244
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a volume.

245
00:10:54,920 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 2: Game with a condre with aerdre.

246
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: What about like up and coming when you were like

247
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: a young journalist.

248
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I actually I liked my gigs before I

249
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 3: ever had something like this. I was, you know, I

250
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 3: worked for the park District when I was in high school,

251
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 3: just slinging gatorades and like hot dogs at slow pitch

252
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 3: like rex softball leagues.

253
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 4: You know.

254
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: That was awesome.

255
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

256
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 3: And then my other job after that in college, I

257
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 3: do architecture tours of the Chicago River and Lake Michigan

258
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 3: is like a dosin with like the Chicago Architecture as

259
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 3: a tour guide with the Architecture Foundation, and this boat

260
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 3: company called the First Lady, and that was sick. Like

261
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 3: I love doing that too.

262
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 1: Do you ever get fired from anything?

263
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 3: No, I don't think I've ever been fired or a

264
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 3: frictionless experience all the way through, but I do remember

265
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 3: when we first started doing hot Ones, it would be

266
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 3: kind of an embarrassing show to do before anybody ever

267
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 3: heard of it.

268
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: You know.

269
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 3: It starts sat as so bare bones, just the black

270
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 3: curtains hanging, and then it would have you know, like

271
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 3: the wings and just me sitting there.

272
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,599
Speaker 1: You know, I like that. It's like Charlie Rose with

273
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: chicken wings. That's fine.

274
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 3: But as you start to like kind of grow and

275
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 3: break through, eventually you find yourself, you know, like renting

276
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 3: a suite at like the Beverly Hills Hotel, hanging those

277
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 3: hanging those black things from like you know, the room,

278
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 3: and then having like Charlie's staring come up from a

279
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 3: press junket to like us with like the bedly you know,

280
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 3: like smashed up against the wall and all the all

281
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 3: the sheets hanging down, and then her being like giving

282
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 3: that same look to the publicist, you know, like that

283
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 3: ended up being fine, but you have to like win

284
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 3: people over, and that was like always a struggle. Nobody

285
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 3: had heard of us or like knew anything when they're

286
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 3: getting themselves into it, and then you have this ridiculous

287
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: on its face, ridiculous concept, you know what I mean.

288
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 3: So I always felt I remember, for years doing the show,

289
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 3: I'd have a feeling of embarrassment before we started.

290
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, it's great. I mean you

291
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 1: do get thrown a lot of fucking wacka do bullshit

292
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: when you're doing press sometimes, and you do have to

293
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: like constantly check in with your pubblices, be like what

294
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: am I doing? Like like especially like there are like

295
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: people that pitch you like wacka doo games, Like you're like,

296
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 1: this is You're gonna play the selfie Olympics, and the

297
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: fuck up, I don't want to do that. Just go

298
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: see the movie I did and whatever. But uh, so

299
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: I understand their apprehension. You got to kind of check

300
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: in with each especially when we tossed around those hotel rooms.

301
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 1: You're like yeah, yeah, yeah, like what is this? But

302
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: uh game show? Yeah was?

303
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 2: What was the.

304
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: Highs and lows of the Game Show was that stressful.

305
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 1: Is it still going No?

306
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 3: No, No, Here's how I here's how I look back

307
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 3: on that. The positives on it were, uh, you know,

308
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 3: it's fun to do it like in a big studio.

309
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: You know, they're nerve wracking. No.

310
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 3: I kind of liked it, you know because when you

311
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 3: do the stress of it, I kind of like the

312
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 3: performance of it, you know, I kind of like, you know,

313
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 3: you're so in the studio doing the interview show. There's

314
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 3: not many people on set, you know, it's very closed

315
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 3: and quiet, and that felt like a chance to like,

316
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,199
Speaker 3: you know, it's like kind of doing something in the

317
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 3: studio and then you get to do a concert. That's

318
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 3: kind of how I thought of it, And it was

319
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 3: it was fun in Atlanta was a fun city to

320
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 3: do it. They're not normal seat filler people, you know,

321
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 3: they're like fun and having a great time and it's

322
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 3: so that always felt awesome. And then you'd be like

323
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 3: around fans and signing hot sauce bottles and stuff, so

324
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 3: it felt real.

325
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: The show. How did the game show work? What was

326
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: the premise of it? Like people had to eat hotter

327
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: and hotter, Like, yeah, it's celebrities.

328
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, contestants, right, so it just be like these rounds

329
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 3: of either like a game or trivia, but before each

330
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 3: round they're eating this scorching hot chicken wing. But I

331
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 3: do remember not having not having the greatest experience going

332
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 3: having a TV adaptation of it or taking notes from

333
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 3: like a network about what this should be, you know

334
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 3: what I mean. So I think, but I think sometimes

335
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 3: they're just like, oh, it's like soelebrities and hot sauce,

336
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 3: and that's what like makes it such a hit, you

337
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 3: know what I mean. So they it would be very

338
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 3: celebrity driven kind of trivia and stuff, but I'm like,

339
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 3: I know, my audience not this kind of dumb, you know.

340
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 3: So I felt like the trivia was dumb. I felt

341
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 3: like the games were dumb. Like I kind of wanted

342
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 3: it to be a little more cash cab kind of thing,

343
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 3: you know, like something that I know people can play

344
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 3: along to. But then they'll, like mark, you know, they'll

345
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 3: focus group test something, and then with whatever the demographic

346
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 3: is for the advertisers that they have, and that ends

347
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 3: up like dictating the show.

348
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,479
Speaker 1: You know, they run creativity like a fucking accountant.

349
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I saw that, and then and then the

350
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 3: output from that I'm like, I know why people like

351
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 3: hot ones and no hot Ones fan is going to

352
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: see this and be like, oh, yeah, this is an

353
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 3: amazing game show, you know what I mean. So I

354
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 3: knew that. And while you're doing something, it's exciting, and

355
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 3: especially at that time, it was super exciting. But then

356
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 3: when I was on the plane home, you know, it's

357
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 3: such a whirlwind because you shoot like twenty five episodes

358
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: in ten days or whatever. And then when I was

359
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 3: on the plane ride home, I remember being like.

360
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: A what's that going to look like?

361
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: You know, but I thought, you know, working with the

362
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 3: contestants is great. The other thing was the wings were

363
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 3: way too hot, you know, because that's like spicy. Wait,

364
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 3: just way too spicy is like just way too way

365
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 3: too impossible to deal. Oh, you were like chilling killing them.

366
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 3: Because the other side of it is the people. I

367
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 3: think there was puking.

368
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 2: I think there was.

369
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: Pukinger from Massachusetts or whatever doing it.

370
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 3: There was puking in every single episode.

371
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: You know.

372
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 3: I was like, I was like, this needs and then

373
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 3: the way that they would be explained to me, I'd

374
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 3: be like, you know what, how one would kind of

375
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 3: work them up to.

376
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: You were starting out at no one's gonna watch the

377
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: first commercial break if they're just kind of you know,

378
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: like that.

379
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 3: So the first one was like worse than the bomb,

380
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 3: and then it goes from there.

381
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: So they're just getting getting rotten, like what movie Kevin Hard?

382
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 3: Oh exactly, it's way too hot. And I remember because

383
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 3: I don't really like puking. I don't like when people

384
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 3: puke around me, and like this, oh yeah, every oh

385
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: my god, there's like puke buckets behind everything. I was like,

386
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 3: I was like, I get wanting reactions, but you don't

387
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 3: want people puking. You don't want deep, you don't want

388
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 3: deep guttural tramps, dark dark. Yeah, And because you know,

389
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 3: like on the show when people are like ah and screaming,

390
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 3: that's fun. When people are in a k hole guttural

391
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 3: like shutdown thing, it's just uncomfortable and then they can't.

392
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 3: So I remember even early on in that being.

393
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: Like these are too hot. But we always make it

394
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 1: to the first commercial break.

395
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 3: We have smoked the mouth. So I remember like, I'm

396
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 3: not uh it was I'm happy I did it. It

397
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 3: was a good experience. And the people in Atlanta and uh,

398
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 3: people at Turner and everybody who was like super awesome

399
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 3: to work with, but looking back on it, like I

400
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 3: understand completely wide failed, you know, like it had no

401
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 3: chance murdering.

402
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: It was nuts. Yeah, they're just like medical attention, yeah

403
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 1: was there.

404
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, we had medics on set and we put

405
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 3: them to you. So I remember there was like somebody

406
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 3: who had to get some sort of attention for it.

407
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 1: But it was uh insurance to cover the show, and I.

408
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 3: Remember there was They'd always want to like update all

409
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: the time, so they'd always have me checking and you know,

410
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 3: how are you doing after the constrictor wing you know,

411
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 3: and doing And I'm like and they'd just be in

412
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 3: my ear being like checking with Derek, checking with Derek,

413
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 3: asked him how he is after the constriction, you know,

414
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 3: stuff like that. It was just I know I should have,

415
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 3: but but I think that's what ends up happening though,

416
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 3: Or what I think is interesting is you walk into

417
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: something and you see the level of success of like

418
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 3: all those people and you're like, well, I've only done

419
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 3: one this is the first show.

420
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: Look at those people, like, who the fuck are anything

421
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: exactly exactly at the time written a script, They've never hosted,

422
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 1: they've never done anything on camera. Why but that.

423
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 3: Was the learning experience for me.

424
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: So I was like, oh, they get fired, they get fired,

425
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: and the revolving door, they've theirs. They're going to be

426
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: fired in like a week exactly.

427
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 3: And then so I felt like, oh, well, I've only

428
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: done one show that's worked ever. You know, this is

429
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 3: my first show, Like what do I know? I would

430
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 3: be going through the same thing, but then now walking

431
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 3: out of it. That was another learning experience of be like, no,

432
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 3: I shouldn't let any anyone talk I know a Hot

433
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 3: Ones fan better than anyone was a Hot Ones fan.

434
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 3: No one should tell me exactly what the one. That

435
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: was like an experience, so you got to push back.

436
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: You just be like, hey, I know the fan base,

437
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 1: and this is you just got to tell them why

438
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: they're wrong over and over again. And then also like

439
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: half of what their their notes are is just like

440
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: performative bullshit to justify their job, like self centered and

441
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: self serving. That's what I thought.

442
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 3: Too, even like the decision being so risk averse, and

443
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 3: you know.

444
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: Like they just don't want to get fired from whoever

445
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: their bosses and their bosses some other schmuck and it's

446
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 1: just like a fucking ladder of schmucks to the top

447
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: of exactly should mountain? But you learn, Yeah, yeah, you

448
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:06,360
Speaker 1: live and learn.

449
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 4: That's so crazy, fucking rocking people to like god five

450
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 4: level spicy, Get them like a medium spice at first,

451
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 4: so that you could tell their their sweat hang, they're hot,

452
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 4: but they're answering the question, and then you go up.

453
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: Then then you build towards Act three. You get you can't.

454
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: I get you don't want to start out with like

455
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: Taco Bell mild, but you gotta, you know.

456
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 3: The craziest ship, the balance, the craziest. This is just

457
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 3: now coming back to me, But before the game show started,

458
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: there'd be a time where we'd go to the production

459
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 3: house that was doing it and they'd have a room

460
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 3: like this. They clear everything out and you'd just be

461
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 3: drilling all the games. So then when you actually start

462
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 3: shooting shows like the games are our second nature to right.

463
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 3: But then what they would do is they'd hire I think,

464
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 3: like just day act like day rate actors, you know,

465
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 3: people that would otherwise just be extras in a toothpaste

466
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 3: commercial or something to come in and they'd be drilling

467
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 3: the games but actually eating the wings for real. And

468
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,239
Speaker 3: I remember thinking at the time, like why do they

469
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 3: even need to eat the wings? Like this is mostly

470
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 3: just about drilling it for me?

471
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 1: Ye die wait this was what what was this? This

472
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: was like a rehearsal.

473
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, like in rehearsal kind of situation.

474
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: And this wasn't for on camera or it wasn't it

475
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: wasn't No, they were just they were just this wasn't

476
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: for the show.

477
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,400
Speaker 3: They were just drilling the things. But I guess they

478
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 3: probably had to lock in the spice to you know,

479
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 3: they probably had to lock in how hot these things was.

480
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: Like, so there's like background actors getting rocked like a

481
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 1: lab rat kind of setting.

482
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 3: Dude, like a documentary and no, it was amazing. I

483
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 3: remember at one point being like, we need to get

484
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: them milkshakes because they like they'd be like they'd be

485
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 3: like Sean Hey, on that last read, you called it

486
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 3: the two hundred dollars question. It's not the two hundred

487
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 3: dollars questions a question for two hundred dollars, So let's

488
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 3: reset new wings like.

489
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. Like these people just like.

490
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 3: Then like I'm like we can't, no, no, no, we

491
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 3: got to get them some milkshake or something. This isn't

492
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 3: and they'd be like, oh yeah, you can tell they

493
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 3: wouldn't even like, weren't even thinking about that.

494
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 1: All right, get some milkshakes.

495
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 3: So anyways, but so that was a short lived but

496
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 3: pretty wild experience.

497
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: It's wild. That's wild ship. Could you update? I guess

498
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: you don't need to, but could you do a half

499
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: hour version for television of hot Ones?

500
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah?

501
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I guess it would be almost it's

502
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 1: almost like, ain't broke, don't fix it. That's I mean,

503
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 1: that's vision all up. That's how I think. Exactly, you

504
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 1: got a good thing going exactly, change the formula. That's

505
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: that's what I say.

506
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 3: It's just like, if this is where people get it

507
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 3: and this is how they like it and they know

508
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 3: how it's delivered, why mess around with any.

509
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: So I've never really like you can monitorze. You're monetizing

510
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 1: YouTube right like you're monetizing.

511
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean yeah, I mean it's not like you know.

512
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,439
Speaker 1: How much you got liquid right now? But go to

513
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: your chase three hundred bucks.

514
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 2: With aerdre.

515
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: With aerdre, what's the worst bomb you've ever seen live?

516
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 3: Nothing that's super crystallized.

517
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: Or any like any other thing you've.

518
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 3: Seen in like I've been to some Killed Tony shows

519
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 3: or whatever, you know, but that's just like I've.

520
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: Gone to those, go to those.

521
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so that's the show. Uh so here's how

522
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 3: it works.

523
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: Me to do it, and I just.

524
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 3: No, you should do it.

525
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: It's fun. It's fun.

526
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 3: It's a fun show. So basically what it is is

527
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 3: just pulling out of the hat like total amateurs to

528
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,959
Speaker 3: do a minute on stage, you know, and then they

529
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 3: it's kind of like.

530
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: A minute of regular written material or you have to

531
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: improvise your material.

532
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 3: No, you could do it's it's people want to be

533
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 3: comedians or whatever putting in. But it's not somebody that's

534
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 3: actually work like not somebody who's like.

535
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: Up and coming. Yeah, like uh, not amateur in a

536
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: bad way, but like open.

537
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 3: It's like an American Idol audition for comedians basically, and

538
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 3: then it's just rapid fire.

539
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: Is it called kill Tony. I don't know why it's.

540
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 3: Called kill Tony. Tony hingeclik does it, So maybe there's some.

541
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: But do they have to like go toe to toe

542
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: with Tony at the end of it, I don't know.

543
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 1: I don't know.

544
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 3: Actually, I just I just accept. I just accepted. At

545
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 3: face value and walked in and sit down. But I've

546
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 3: gone to a couple of them, and that'll be like

547
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 3: a rapid fire bomb, you know what I mean. So

548
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 3: it'll just be.

549
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: Like it's just one first time or is like getting

550
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: up there, yeah yeah and eating it.

551
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 3: It would be like just kids from high school trying

552
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 3: to fill a minute or something.

553
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, it's the longest minute of

554
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: their life. Yeah, so you've seen some panic attacks there, Yeah, definitely. Yeah, Yeah,

555
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 1: I love that ship. I love, I love I'm such

556
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: an anxious person. I like relish and people's like nerves

557
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 1: and anxiety because it makes like nothing's more likable. If

558
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: I see you like you've monetized that. Yeah. Yeah, if

559
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: I could like bring you down to my level of misery,

560
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: like they make her click my heels, constant fucking medical

561
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,679
Speaker 1: misery of anxiety disorder. What's the most wasted you've been

562
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: at work?

563
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 3: So Dave Grohl came.

564
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: In whiskey in my mouth. It said buckle up.

565
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 3: Butter good really literally, So he came in. He brought

566
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 3: a bottle of Crown Royal and he's like, I'm gonna

00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 3: with me.

570
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: Oh, he shaded you shot for shot. He was disgusting.

571
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 3: We cleaned out an entire bottle of Crown Royal and

572
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 3: so you know, a hot one shoot is like an

573

574
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 3: rallied through. I rallied through, and it was like a

575
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 3: ten am shoot.

00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: I remember, you.

577
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 2: Know, I walked.

578
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,479
Speaker 1: Do you have other things to do that day?

579
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 3: No? I had the schedule clear, but I remember kind

580
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 3: of stumbling out. I don't even smoke cigarettes, but I

581
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 3: was just smoking cigs with Dave outside and it was awesome.

582
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: It was it was actually all that sounds like the

583
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,360
Speaker 1: best day of your life. It was awesome. You were hammered.

584
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: So this one, Yeah, yeah, you can watch it. You

585
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: can watch it. Amazing girl drinks like that. He could

586
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 1: put it down. Yeah. Yeah, that day sober for some reason.

587
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: Not that day, not that my friend worked in radio.

588
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 1: He said. David Girl was the nicest. He is the

589
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: nicest interview he's ever done in his career. He said,

590
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:21,959
Speaker 1: he interviewed everybody.

591
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 3: I agree with that, and he said.

592
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: Out of everyone I've ever interviewed David Girl. Yeah, like

593
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: hands down champion to interview. He said, he's like super open,

594
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: you can ask him anything, so down to earth.

595
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 3: But I find that to be the case of a

596
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 3: lot of people that have been in the game a

597
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 3: long time, you know, that have come out the other

598
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 3: side of that. Those are kind of my favorite people

599
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 3: to interview.

600
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: But I think they've been in the game for a

601
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: long time because they're easy. Yeah.

602
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 3: Actually that's a good point.

603
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 1: I think when you're so you become so difficult to

604
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,199
Speaker 1: work with. It doesn't matter how famous you are, how

605
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: successfully are people are, Like you're a monster. Everybody is replaceable.

606
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 1: So I think that I think I think somebody was talking.

607
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: I think Samuel Jackson was talking about that. He's like,

608
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 1: even at my level, I can't start being a fucking

609
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: total asshole. Heuld be a little bit of an.

610
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 3: Ass Yeah, yeah, just a little bit a little sprinkle play.

611
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 1: People could be a little bit of a curmudgeon. But

612
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: if you're monstrous, that's a good point, you know, won't

613
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: names well, Sean, Hey, it could have been done and

614
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: we did it. I should have done something like, in hindsight,

615
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: I was not prepared. We should have done. I don't

616
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: know what the equivalent of Hot Sauce or Crown Royal,

617
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: but I should have done a dating role to you.

618
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 3: Well, you know what it was like we were talking

619
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 3: before when you're like, oh, can't I just like talk

620
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 3: about my movie or whatever? You know, sometimes there's no

621
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 3: need to overproduce, you know what I'm saying. Put a

622
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 3: concept to it. Like last night I was watching the

623
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 3: football game. They had this pregame show where it was

624
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 3: like Patrick Mahomes getting interviewed, but they like they're like

625
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 3: having a catch and they were like throwing a football

626
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 3: around and I was like, and this is like and

627
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 3: they have to like yell at each other like while

628
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 3: they're doing the interview because they're playing. And I was like,

629
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 3: what happened to just people sit and sit down and talking?

630
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: Did I ruin?

631
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 2: This?

632
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 3: Is this my influence?

633
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?

634
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 3: That's not I feel like maybe I'm leaving the world

635
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 3: the worst place to.

636
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: Because your your thing has it's not rigid Like that

637
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: feels very like tossing the ball and yelling feels very

638
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: like they're overthinking. Yeah, yours has like a there's no

639
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: rigidity to it. It feels like it feels like a

640
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 1: casual hang because you would eat hot chicken wings with

641
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: your friends, you know what I mean. So that's relatable.

642
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 1: That's not like, hey, what's up man, indoors? Father and

643
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: son fucking ball catching indoors too, grown man? What could

644
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: I have done? That was like a hot hot wing challenge?

645
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: What is?

646
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 2: What is?

647
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: What causes you, uh discomfort in a challenging way, like

648
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: whiskey and hot sauce.

649
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they also kind of care nice, you know.

650
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: They do because does an alcohol cut the cut the

651
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: little bit? Because I think it was it was either

652
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: Jamie Oliver or or Alton Brown that was like the

653
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: only thing you can do is animal fat or booze,

654
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 1: right to get the heat. Yeah, It's either got to

655
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: be milk, yeah, butter buttermilk or or ice cream some

656
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: animal fat to cut it, yeah, or alcohol right yeah,

657
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: because water doesn't cut it.

658
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 3: No, it just kind of moves it around.

659
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: It just moves around the heat. Yeah, it's got to

660
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 1: be milk like milkshakes, right, yeah, and go to for

661
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: heat reduction.

662
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 3: As our guests have gotten more and more famous over

663
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 3: the years, the milks have become more and more exotic,

664
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 3: you know. And then now people are like substituted in

665
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 3: milk that's you know, not whole. You know, it's just

666
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 3: crazy la milks, you know, and without a yeah yeah

667
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 3: almond and might as well be drinking water.

668
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. Wait a minute. What's your most successful hot ones?

669
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 3: Gordon Ramsey by far, I think Billy Eilis Like Billy

670
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 3: Eilish is our second biggest episode. It has like half

671
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 3: as many views as Gordon. That thing has like one

672
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 3: hundred and thirty million views or something something like that.

673
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 3: But I think what it was is when we first

674
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 3: started doing the show, he was the most quested guest

675
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 3: by far. You know, I almost felt bad for when

676
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 3: we started putting out episodes because it's be like on

677
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 3: the show this week, Eric Andre and all the comments back,

678
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 3: where's Gordon Ramsey? When's Gordon Ramsey?

679
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?

680
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 3: I felt like almost impossible to do the show until

681
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 3: we got him in. And I think it makes sense,

682
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 3: you like the food component. I think people want to

683
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 3: see him like yell at us about the quality of

684
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 3: the wings, like I think he just naturally fit that

685
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 3: chair so well. And so then when it finally happened,

686
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 3: it was like an internet fever dream coming.

687
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:31,719
Speaker 1: Together, blooded guy. People wanted to see him. Yeah, how

688
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: did he do? Awesome? And he's took wings down?

689
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's actually and he came back and did it again.

690
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 3: Actually we did a holiday special tailor and I've had

691
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 3: dinner in Hell's kitchen before. No, he's not like he's

692
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 3: Dave Groll off the camera.

693
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: Yea, yeah, yeah, there's no way that he that's got

694
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 1: to be performed. Yeah. Yeah, he's a reality people that

695
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 1: are like as sweet as pie. And I'm like, why

696
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: did they make you do this? This is like Simon

697
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: Cowell model of I guess you got to put you

698
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: You got to inject drama. Conflict, Yeah, conflict. Maybe that's

699
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 1: what I trying to do the whole time.

700
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

701
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe he has a three dimensional chests kind of

702
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: attitude about it and he's trying to inject some conflict. Yeah.

703
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: I really actually do believe part of that because he

704
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: was so sweet off camera talking about Johnny Mitchell or whatever,

705
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: and that he was like doing the stick. I could

706
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: see that if I was like twenty two years old

707
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: and also felt like nervous, he felt nervous. He felt

708
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: like it felt like this like anxiety to deliver something

709
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: edge lordy and controversial, and I was like, all right, man,

710
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: you're bumming everybody out. Even his manager was like, fuck.

711
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 4: Sean, thank you man, thank you with Avery Codre.

712
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: Hey, before you go, I want to let you know

713
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: I got a new book out that I wrote with

714
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: my friend Dan Curry. It is called Dumb Ideas Behind

715
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: the Scenes Expose am making pranks and other stupid creative

716
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: endeavors and how you can also too. It's out now

717
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: and you can get it anywhere you buy books or

718
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: audio books. Now, here's a special clip from the audio book,

719
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: just for you. I always dreamed of being arrested while

720
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: doing comedy. Then I finally did. During season one of

721
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: The Eric Gondra Show, I went to a town all

722
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: meeting dressed like a frat boy. While the mayor of

723
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: this pode On, California town called Rancho Kucamonga no joke,

724
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 1: was babbling on about god knows what. I dressed like

725
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 1: a frat boy, ran up to the podium and said, hey,

726
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: y'all vote for me for class president, and I'll put

727
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: beer in the water fountains and cameras in the girls'

728
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: locker rooms.

729
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 2: Woo go, Bobcats.

730
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: This half baked character was inspired by any Porky's loving

731
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: dipshit from my first high school kinda. If you read

732
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: that last sentence and got the porky reference, give yourself

733
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: a pork sandwich, then poke a gloryhole in your own shower.

734
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: That movie didn't age well. This evening town hall meeting

735
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: was attended by the mayor and twelve sheriffs. These municipal

736
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: hot shots didn't share my sense of humor and promptly

737
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 1: detained me. The sun was setting, the air was thick.

738
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: I was on a high. The sheriff's escorted me outside

739
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: of the parking lot and kept asking for my name.

740
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 1: I told them my name was John Coltrane. They kept

741
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: trying to look me up in their cop car laptop

742
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: and they would lament, you're not coming up in the system, Coltrane.

743
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: This one cop came up to me and went how

744
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 1: many drugs are you on? And I was stone cold sober,

745
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 1: so I self cued the classic sobriety test and started

746
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: nailing them. Still in character, I leaned my head back

747
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: and started tapping my nose and saying the alphabet backwards flawlessly,

748
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: ze why XWVUT. Then I walked in a straight line

749
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 1: over and over again. These sheriffs were beside themselves. This

750
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 1: is the most sober idiot we've ever seen. Finally, the

751
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 1: head boss sheriff softened. I don't want to arrest you, guy,

752
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: but I just have to arrest you since you made

753
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 1: such a scene in front of my boss. Poor guy,

754
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: he just had to arrest me. I can't imagine the

755
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: emotional pain and trauma he suffered while cuffing me with

756
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 1: a recondre. All right, listen up, we got something special

757
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 1: for you. Got a burning story that you're itching to
