I hope it doesn't scare you. 0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:34.080 So my wife, of course, as was everyone a huge fan, 0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:37.800 or as is everyone my wife's dad. I just heard 0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:39.560 this story for the first time today and I started 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:41.200 laughing so hard that I was like, oh my god, 0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:44.560 this is so crazy. So he runs into Tori and 0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:47.800 this is many, many years ago. Um, my wife was 0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:51.080 in like sixth grade at the time. And uh, he 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:59.040 runs into Tori at the Long Beach. You remember this story? 0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:04.920 I no, not yet. So some creeper walks up to 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:07.880 you and it's basically like, oh my god, my daughter 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.880 is the biggest fan of yours. You're her favorite character 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:13.680 on the show, and we live less than a mile 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:17.440 away from here. Who would you come over to our 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:21.799 house and meet my daughter? I guess the look at 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.080 your face was priceless from what I understand. And you 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.480 were like, um no, I don't think I can do that. 0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:29.240 And he was like, I'll you know, you make a 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.360 lot of money, I'll give you money. And she was 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:35.800 like to give you I don't know, but it was. 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:38.960 He said, it was like a lot. This is like 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:41.079 the creepiest story I've ever heard. Is there a good 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:44.520 ending to this story, Bob? No, well there is because 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:46.960 you were very very sweet. So you're like, I'm not 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.560 gonna go to your house, weird man. But he said, 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:52.480 I did not say it weird. You didn't say the 0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:54.840 weird man's part, of course. And he actually had a 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.800 business card and you signed it to his daughter, my 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:02.320 my wife, and when it was her birthday or not 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:04.400 a birthday was some type of holiday coming up, and 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.480 so he gave it to her as like a present, 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:10.120 and she went bananas. I was so excited. And but 0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:12.400 when I heard this story, I'm like, oh my god, 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.040 only my father in law would be the guy that 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.760 would think it was okay, you know, because he's literally 0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.960 not He doesn't think things through all the time. You know. 0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:22.080 It's kind of a strength and the weakness of this 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.960 me either and one of two. I'm surprised. One that 0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:28.200 I didn't actually because I was scared to say no 0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:30.959 and wanted to people please actually go with him. I'm 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:34.520 shocked to hear that. Yeah, very smart, though I didn't 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:38.800 because who knows he could have been anyone. Yeah, why 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:40.800 didn't he just have her come there if he lived 0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.360 a mile away? I guess I don't know, maybe because 0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.000 she was so young, because I have no idea, I 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:46.840 have no idea. That part of the story we need 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:50.040 to ask. I'm gonna have to ask her. So the 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:54.240 last time I saw you, we were at an event 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:59.360 and you were with your ex wife, Yeah, Rebecca.

I'm 0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:28.920 sure it's changed since then, but back then when it 0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:30.920 was so new, I mean, and I was kind of like, 0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:33.520 for whatever reason, I was the guy that they came to. 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.400 Day one, when we moved into this playcial pad and 0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:38.400 they're like, what do you guys want to eat and drink? 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:40.360 You know, I said, well, why don't we do some 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:44.240 burgers and maybe some ribs for the grill, and you know, 0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:45.880 how about for drinks, Well we'll do like, you know, 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:48.680 half gallon of this, half gallon of that. I'm not 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:50.480 kidding you guys. That drinks were there in five then 0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:54.160 the food didn't come until you know, eight pm, but 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:56.320 it was noon and the drinks were flowing. They wanted 0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.040 to get your liquored up exactly because I think they 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:02.440 knew they would lowering your ambitions and possibly get some 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.480 people's aggro tendencies to pop out. But it didn't really 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:08.560 work out that way with us. Well, you, I mean, 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:10.840 you don't need that show. You've gone on to do 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:13.840 so many great things since then. It's like, what a 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:17.480 fun launch for your career. But like, who did you 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:20.920 ever think you would end up doing what you do now? No, 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:24.439 you know, I didn't. Honestly, I didn't know that the 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:26.760 show would even be a launch pad for anything, frankly 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:29.200 at the time, and so you know, uh, and I 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:30.960 don't know that it necessarily would have been had it 0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:32.760 not been that Oprah thought I was funny, and she 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:36.000 and Gail were watching our that season of Trista's you know, 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:39.480 they loved Trista and so they Oprah would have me 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:40.880 as like her man on the street, and I'd be 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:43.520 cooking with you know, her chef and art Smith and 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:45.520 I was doing all this fun stuff and that's just 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:47.280 sort of what took it, I think next level for 0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:50.000 a while there and gave me all those opportunities. But 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:52.360 you know, it was definitely one of those moments where, 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:53.839 you know, my brother in law said it best of 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:55.800 the time. He's like, if you would have planned this, 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.560 if you would have had like this design on how 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:01.240 to get this happening, it would never happen. He's like, 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:03.080 the fact that you dumbed your way into it is 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:05.880 the reason why it worked. And that's the lesson there. Today. 0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:10.040 People you tell us about your band, fat Amy, I'm 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.280 obsessed with that name. Yeah, fat Amy. Um. So that 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:15.720 was that was my first job and entertainment, I guess 0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:19.360 I signed a deal right out of college. Um and uh. 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:22.000 We started touring and we opened for We were on 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:24.240 a label called the Wear Records at the time, which 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:30.120 Aware Records launched, I mean Vertical Horizon Matchbox twenty, Hoodie 0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.640 and the Blowfish, you know, you name. It all came 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:34.719 off of this, a lot of these compilation albums that 0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:37.720 this guy named Greg Gladiman. Greg Ladiman would do and 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:39.440 he would go around and put all these bands on 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:42.080 these labels, and um, we were one of the lucky ones. 0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:44.600 So we got to open for all those guys. And 0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:46.400 to this day it's like a fun party trick when 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:48.280 I know that Darius Rucker is gonna be somewhere and 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:50.800 you know, I'll just come rolling by and he'd like, whatever, 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.440 bachelor Bob. We can't be buddies anymore. You know, no 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:55.720 one ever believes I know him because I'm too embarrassed 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:57.360 to tell them that, you know, because he might not 0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:00.280 remember me. So I just always just said, hey Davis, Um, 0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:01.600 you know, it was a lot of fun. It was 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.679 like a lifetime ago. And that's that's sort of you 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.600 don't still do it, no, you know now, I now 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:08.480 I do it with bands from TV. So now we 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:11.880 have the band that Greg Grundberg started, Greg who was 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:14.640 on Heroes and Alias and all that. You know, Greg 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:21.559 brought myself, m Hugh Laurie, James Denton, um Scott Grimes, 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:25.120 Jesse Spencer. He brought us all together and we formed 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:28.640 this band. That's a great lineup right there. Oh yeah. 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:31.440 We do all corporate events and then we give the 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:33.960 proceeds the charity. So we've been doing that for almost 0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:36.040 ten years now and that's been a lot of fun, 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:39.440 a lot of more and it's all cover songs. There's 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:42.280 no pressure. Well, if you need need too, cute like 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:46.480 backup dancers were available, we definitely do. We definitely do. 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:48.160 I would love to have you guys. Do that be 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.840 a blast? Well, we're so glad you're with us today. 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:52.560 We're gonna take a break and then we're gonna come 0:13:52.559 --> 0:14:07.720 back and we're gonna talk about the episode this week. Okay, 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:10.920 So Bob, you read I meanting you read you watched 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:16.120 this week's episode, right, Yes, of course the Angelum. Okay. 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:19.680 I wasn't very excited about just watching this episode at 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:21.520 all because of the title. I don't know why, I 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:26.920 just didn't do anything for me or something and the 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:31.320 Pendulum really alright, I like this alright, so let's get 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:33.720 into it. Season two, episode twenty four, The Pit and 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:39.880 the Pendulum, aired on March nine. Synopsis Brenda and Brandon 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:43.080 take opposite sides after learning Jim's new client plans a 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:48.320 multimillion dollar development that would absorb the peach Pit. Directed 0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:54.000 by Daniel Addius, written by Larry and Paul Barber. So 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:57.840 this episode was it was kind of like, uh, Brandon's 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.120 you know, once again, Brandon's world's colliding. He has to 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:06.240 face a choice between the pretty girl and the peach Pit. 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.400 In this one, they're always a pretty girl. It's always 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:13.320 a pretty that we sometimes we talk if there's an A, 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:15.840 B or C storyline. This was all a It was 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:20.000 just all squished together. There was no yeah, nobody else, 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:24.600 had no Brenda Dylan drama. There was no Kelly, no Donna. 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.840 Like we were just kind of all there for the 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:31.760 peach Pit storyline. Party fillers. Yeah, it felt didn't even 0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.400 make a David didn't even show up until the last 0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:36.960 two minutes of this one. He had the week off. 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:41.360 He came running into to like give his message. But 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:43.680 the show opened up on some chrip, you know, like 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:49.200 historical shots of like the old Hollywood I guess when 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:52.720 the peach Pit first open. Pictures of the Man's Chinese 0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:57.760 theater and what else, Capitol records, the Hollywood sign when 0:15:57.760 --> 0:16:01.760 it said Holly Hollywood Land. What if people know that? 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:05.400 Probably not. I only know it from the movie Hollywood Land. 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:07.520 That's the only reason I know it. Do you remember 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:09.880 that movie? I think ye, Ben afflecking that movie and 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:11.760 I remember that. I remember it from that movie, But 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.320 I don't think I would have ever known that either. 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.040 What's the story of why the land went away? Like? 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.160 Does someone steal it? You have people used to try 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:24.120 to steal? Don't knocked it down? Hollywood and it kind 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:27.760 of stuff. I think it works better in my opinion, 0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:31.800 that's Hollywood, not Hollywood Land. What do you guys? Great? Yeah, 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:34.960 I agree. I wonder what that story is. If anyone 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:37.800 knows that story, let us know. But it was you 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:40.120 could tell something was looming. There was like a little 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:43.360 bit of a of energy in the opening of this 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:47.320 Nat was Nat was on edge. The guys were, you know, 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:52.120 doing what guys do, playing with the dishes. I guess 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:55.960 that's what they do air hockey. Yeah. I think it 0:16:56.160 --> 0:17:00.960 was right. Yeah, And I also I think that it 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.400 was cool to get to see like the back of 0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:05.679 the peach pit, like the office area. I always love 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:09.080 when we went behind the counter or behind the wall 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.520 and saw like the real workings of the peach pit. 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:18.640 So dingy Willie had Willie the cook, the chef guy. 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:22.320 This was this was a big episode because for you know, 0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:25.600 those of who don't know, like he was considered more 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.240 of like a background actor. He never had any lines 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:30.360 really on the show. And in this episode, if I'm 0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.200 not mistaken, this was one of the first episodes where 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:36.760 he had speaking lines. Yeah, So he went from being 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:41.040 you know, really important background actor on the show. I 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:44.560 mean he was always in the episodes, probably making you know, 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:48.040 I don't know back in the day. I think as 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:50.560 a background actor you probably made a five dollars a 0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:54.280 day something around that. And Willie wanted to raise at 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:56.679 the peach pit. But he got a raise on not 0:17:56.920 --> 0:18:01.280 two on Oh he got speaking. Yeah, he went from 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.159 he went up to like five dollars a day at 0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:08.000 that time. For we had Nadine. I saw Nadine. Nadine, 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:11.720 they're all everybody share waitress like those two ended up 0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:13.520 going on and being with us the whole rest of 0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:17.280 the time. Was that a working girl at the peach 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.119 pick like that that girl actually get fired up a second, 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:23.200 it did. I remember the smell. I don't that's only 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:26.040 I can just remember the smell unless they pipe that in. 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:29.400 I don't know, like the smell of burning meat will 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:36.400 forever stick in my mind. Yeah, I bet you know what, 0:18:36.920 --> 0:18:42.000 watching Joey Tata do, not just like the fun nat stuff, 0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:44.280 but doing the drama. We always talk about how what 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:48.120 we love watching Joey do more serious acting because he's 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:52.359 so good. Yeah, he's very believable. Like you're watching that 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:54.560 episode and it's, you know, your heart's kind of breaking 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:57.840 for him. I mean I don't. I don't remember, and 0:18:57.880 --> 0:18:59.840 I swear I watched every episode and now that you 0:18:59.840 --> 0:19:02.240 want grow up, but I don't remember this episode necessarily, 0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:04.199 so I was kind of like, oh, this is the twist, 0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:06.080 you know what's going on. I couldn't really remember. Did 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:08.280 you watch from the very beginning of the show or 0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:10.600 did you just kind of jump around? Yeah? I did. 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:14.160 What was your watching ritual? Like how do you watch? Yeah? 0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:15.600 I remember it was like an I think it was 0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:17.679 a Wednesday night show, wasn't it or Thursday? I remember 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.920 it being like destination viewing, which I don't think exists anymore, 0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:23.879 you know, like the way that it did when we 0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:25.440 were all growing up, because we're all the same age. 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:27.600 So I feel like it was one of those things 0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:30.240 that you know, there were nights when you had certain 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:31.879 shows that you watched and you just knew what you 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:33.959 were going to be doing, and you know, and that 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:35.400 was always the way it was for me with nine 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:37.399 O two one. Oh, So I was shocked by I 0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:40.960 saw this episode and missed it. Yeah, well, I don't 0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:43.760 know this one. This was kind of a dark episode. Honestly, 0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:48.399 it was like episodes like this don't excite us, but 0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:52.399 this one, this one did keep you. It kept your attention. Yeah, 0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:56.359 because I don't know, everybody was so invested in it. Yeah, 0:19:56.480 --> 0:19:59.920 and the introducing of like the teen Advisory Board of course, 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.280 held at the Walsh's house where all the important meetings 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:08.080 take place. Running late, and then there he meets the 0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:13.000 lovely Marcy. I think, what's her name, Marcy? Marcy had 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:20.119 some some hair. This was Liz Vassey. She went on 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:23.200 to work. She's still working. This is an actress who's 0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:27.760 never stopped working since this this show. Which she was good, 0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:31.480 She was great. I thought she was really good. Yeah. 0:20:31.720 --> 0:20:33.840 I like the storyline, you know, I mean, it seems 0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:35.600 like relevant. I think that's the one thing that the 0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:37.440 writer has always did such a good job on your show. 0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:40.520 Was you know, they always really kind of I mean, 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:42.520
