0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 1>They thought it was going to be your parents. They

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 1>know his you're their son's name, and they were going

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>to try to get money to get him out of jail.

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I know this, dam because all of my grandparents have

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>fallen for it. Dude, this happened, Yeah, this happened, dude.

0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Alex's grandmother that the guy, the actor playing Greg, I

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:19.320

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:34.880
<v Speaker 1>your brother because he knew it was me. It was okay.

0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 1>He hit his face, but unfortunately he was on his

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:40.759
<v Speaker 1>cell phone at the time. He was taking a left

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:42.960
<v Speaker 1>he slammed into a car, and a woman who was

0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:47.080
<v Speaker 1>seven months pregnant has been very hurt. He's been arrested

0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 1>for vehicular Oh my gosh. So we're all now shaking.

0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh right, you're gonna get a call in about five minutes,

0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:59.360
<v Speaker 1>he's all I said, let me speak to my brother again. No,

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:01.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. He's in the back of the wagon. He's

0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>already handcuffed. You'll get a call with the case number

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:05.560
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah. So we're going, oh my god, what

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>the hell's going on? Call two minutes later from somebody else,

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>and right as he started talking, I knew it was wrong,

0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 1>Like I just went, something's not right. He said, Well,

0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:19.040
<v Speaker 1>the bond's already been set. It's for twelve thousand, five

0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.040
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars, but we've got it reduced for five hundred

0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 1>now from from fifty thousand. Now he doesn't know that

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 1>both my parents are attorneys for three hundred years, and

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 1>so they're looking at each other. I go, can you

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 1>hang on a second? And I mute it and I go,

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:33.639
<v Speaker 1>this is a scam. My dad's like, there's you wouldn't

0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 1>have a bond already if he's in the back of

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.920
<v Speaker 1>the van, like, what what's going on? So as it's muted,

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the guy hangs up. We call my brother. Obviously there's

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.400
<v Speaker 1>a big snowstorm here. He's like, I'm shoveling off the driveway.

0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 1>What's going on. We're like, oh my god, we just

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>got this call. We tell him this whole thing. As

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.400
<v Speaker 1>this happens, we hang up. I'm on the phone with

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:57.240
<v Speaker 1>my wife telling the story, and the guy calls back, Oh,

0:02:57.320 --> 0:02:59.680
<v Speaker 1>it tries a kiss, So now he knows it's a scam.

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>So now I get to play right. So the guy

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:08.440
<v Speaker 1>calls and says, you know, this is the sergeant again.

0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:10.840
<v Speaker 1>We're checking to see did the lawyer call you? And

0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I turn it on. Yes, he called. I'm just I'm

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 1>so sorry. I'm so nervous right now. Can I please

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 1>talk to my brother? I need to talk to my

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.880
<v Speaker 1>brother I'm sorry. He's now we've we've transported him. He's

0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:23.359
<v Speaker 1>in the holding pen. I was like, oh, okay, you've

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.360
<v Speaker 1>got to get a message to him. And I said, okay,

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 1>he goes to Okay, what is I said, the gold

0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:32.880
<v Speaker 1>statue that my grandparents sent. We're having it melted down

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>as we speak. We're turning them into gold ingots that

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>are being polished. We are then sending them to a

0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 1>small tribe that is going to turn them into blood

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.840
<v Speaker 1>to get them to the vampire tribe that is going

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to release him from prison. My brother, my brother, and

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:55.160
<v Speaker 1>yelling in the room, my brother, Oh my god. And

0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 1>so there's dead silence on the other end, but the

0:03:57.320 --> 0:03:59.720
<v Speaker 1>guys obviously still on the phone. I went, did you

0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.960
<v Speaker 1>pick up that we got? It's a scam? Do you do?

0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 1>You know that? And then after that you just heard

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>the click. But it was thirty to sixty seconds of

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 1>just having so much fun. At this point, I thought

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:13.560
<v Speaker 1>you were going to start like asking for a badge number,

0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 1>or like just keep keep pushing him to go. But

0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>I love it. You just made it your a chance

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:21.960
<v Speaker 1>to shine. But you watched the color drain from my parents' face,

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:25.160
<v Speaker 1>and you're thinking these horrible scam artists that are out there,

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.520
<v Speaker 1>These are horrible, horrible human beings. I mean, yeah, I know,

0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 1>my my human being. My wife's grandmother before she passed,

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 1>got scammed by one of these and sent hundreds of

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:38.080
<v Speaker 1>dollars off to who she thought was her grandson because

0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:39.719
<v Speaker 1>he was in trouble and needed money and da da

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 1>da da da, and she just didn't know. You know,

0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:44.880
<v Speaker 1>it's playing on your love for your family, like we're

0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:48.719
<v Speaker 1>playing love for your family. It's it's awful. It's awful. Yeah.

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:51.599
<v Speaker 1>My grandmother rest in peace, fell for it as well,

0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:55.479
<v Speaker 1>and I think twice, I think two times, sent thousands

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.760
<v Speaker 1>of dollars, like twenty five hundred dollars the first time,

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 1>and unfortunately we didn't know it the time necessarily, but

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.479
<v Speaker 1>she was battling some dementia and so then it happened

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.560
<v Speaker 1>a second time and she didn't like remember that the

0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:07.279
<v Speaker 1>first time it had turned out to be a scam

0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:10.720
<v Speaker 1>and you know, oh man, it's just unbelievable. And they

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.720
<v Speaker 1>did it to my other grandfather as well. You people,

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 1>whoever you, you're probably not listening to pod Meat's world.

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.960
<v Speaker 1>If you're if you maybe well taking of your parents

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:25.679
<v Speaker 1>who are not listening to Pod Meat's World. Yeahparents, this landlines,

0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>all right, it's always if you have a landline, they

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 1>can look up and they will know everything. Like in

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:32.120
<v Speaker 1>this situation, they knew even Will was his brother, and

0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 1>they knew Greg's name and like, so make sure your

0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 1>parents and your grandparents know that this scam is going

0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 1>on and that you will never call them if you

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 1>need money. And then just don't never call them if

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you need money. Then this is going to backfire big day,

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 1>bad idea. But just make sure they know this scam

0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.039
<v Speaker 1>is going on and they verify that you need it

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:57.360
<v Speaker 1>two times two so terrified. Oh my gosh. I also

0:05:57.640 --> 0:05:59.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry you had that experience, Will, But I also

0:05:59.760 --> 0:06:03.120
<v Speaker 1>want to just talk about highlight some emails that we got.

0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:05.000
<v Speaker 1>It's been a while since I called out some shout

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 1>outs for some emails that we had. Lucy f email

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.360
<v Speaker 1>just to point out that during her rewatch that she's

0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:13.159
<v Speaker 1>been doing with us, she noticed that the Matthews kitchen

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 1>table only has four placements and four chairs for eating,

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:21.599
<v Speaker 1>and she knows exactly who probably isn't eating with the

0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:29.480
<v Speaker 1>rest of the family. And then we have to give

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:32.400
<v Speaker 1>a shout out to ABBYG who binged the whole podcast

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:40.600
<v Speaker 1>in five days. Wow, very impressive. She is twenty two

0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:44.920
<v Speaker 1>years old, a little younger than our imagined demographic, and

0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.080
<v Speaker 1>she said some very nice things about the show and

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 1>most importantly us, So hello, ABBYG, who's probably so sick

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>of our voices. Yeah, and then another one. Okay, we

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.479
<v Speaker 1>got a lot of emails agreeing with you two about

0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:02.320
<v Speaker 1>the painful experience that is Goofy Sky School. But shout

0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:05.799
<v Speaker 1>out to Eileen, a rare voice of defense for the ride.

0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:08.479
<v Speaker 1>She admits to the fear of it all and that

0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.400
<v Speaker 1>while on the ride, the idea of sweet sweet sleeps

0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>does flash right before her eyes. But she says if

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Goofy Sky School is wrong, she does not want to

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 1>be right. That I'm never going that right. Did you

0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:25.400
<v Speaker 1>ride or did you read? The one theory which is

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 1>very interesting that the first time you see Sean wearing

0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the jacket, he's wearing it at the Matthews house, so

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:38.520
<v Speaker 1>he actually stole it from Eric or borrowed it. Perfect

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:43.280
<v Speaker 1>he stole it, so that's the first time you see it.

0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:47.240
<v Speaker 1>That's I love that theory. It makes perfect sense. And

0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 1>then which maybe he just then Eric never noticed, but no,

0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:52.200
<v Speaker 1>that was the thing. I think it was a woman.

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>I apologize if I'm wrong, but what she said was

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.720
<v Speaker 1>this was an Eric was going into his preppy phase,

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 1>so he was over it anyway. So he was like, take, yeah,

0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that's cool. I love that theory. He got trusted up

0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 1>for the band show, right, and we're on different clothes

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:10.559
<v Speaker 1>and I put on Eric's jacket. You put on Eric's

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 1>jacket and that's it. There you go. I like that,

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:17.320
<v Speaker 1>very very cool. And you guys have been so wonderful

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 1>and supportive of our Harley shirt. We only have two

0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 1>weeks left that we are offering it, and we have

0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 1>raised so much money for Danny McNulty and Namium, which

0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 1>we are just so appreciative of. So if you guys

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.199
<v Speaker 1>do not have your Harley shirt yet, I got mine.

0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I love it. Uh. If you guys don't have yours

0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:43.920
<v Speaker 1>a while. I had my own wine and Chief store, which,

0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:49.760
<v Speaker 1>in making Georgia was not a good idea should have

0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:04.400
<v Speaker 1>and it didn't. It didn't work. And then I had

0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:06.280
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of other jobs that worked for a beer

0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.400
<v Speaker 1>company delivering Uh it's funny. I lifted weights for like

0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 1>eight years. I got a little bit bigger, a lot stronger,

0:15:12.800 --> 0:15:17.000
<v Speaker 1>but just a little bit bigger, and quit working out.

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:21.760
<v Speaker 1>When I got this job with them Miller Beer people,

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:27.480
<v Speaker 1>delivering kegs of beer in like six weeks, I was huge.

0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.920
<v Speaker 1>So you know, working out doing work makes you bigger

0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:37.840
<v Speaker 1>or kills you. Yeah. I did a couple other things

0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:42.040
<v Speaker 1>here and there, and I started doing some somebody's wanted

0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:45.720
<v Speaker 1>me to do this play and uh it was cold.

0:15:45.800 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Norman is that you? And Uh it's funny too because

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the two guys that wrote Norman is that You? I

0:15:53.160 --> 0:15:55.960
<v Speaker 1>ended up they wrote a pilot for me. I ended

0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:58.520
<v Speaker 1>up doing a pilot with them for NBC. They didn't

0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:04.000
<v Speaker 1>get picked up anyway. How weird is that Ron Clark

0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 1>and Sam Bobrick ron Clark and Sam Bobrick. Ron Clark

0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>was from Kennedy, Sam Bobrick and Sam Bobrick was Jewish

0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 1>guy from New York and he wrote Andy Griffiths. You

0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:25.080
<v Speaker 1>know Andy Griffin was Southern, is it anyway? Yeah? So

0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:31.920
<v Speaker 1>uh yeah, so uh. I tried doing some community theater

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:35.120
<v Speaker 1>and I really liked it. So I figured, what the hell,

0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I'll try this. And then so it was acting first.

0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:40.240
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't comedy. First, it was acting. And then I

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:44.800
<v Speaker 1>started doing a little stand up. Somebody said, why don't

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.240
<v Speaker 1>you come guy a guy who ran a bar and

0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 1>making making Georgia That's where I was born, and raising

0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:53.560
<v Speaker 1>making it. And I thought, and vietnamous like being punished

0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:58.360
<v Speaker 1>for the same thing twice I used. I used to

0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:06.639
<v Speaker 1>have flashbacks in Vietnam that I'd wake up in the

0:17:06.640 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 1>middle of the firefight and be thank God, I'm not

0:17:08.920 --> 0:17:17.159
<v Speaker 1>making anyway. You know what's funny too, is uh I

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:21.679
<v Speaker 1>think we were on Disney locked because we moved. You

0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>guys kept moving around, but I'd find you. You'd always

0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:37.120
<v Speaker 1>find us. Move. Let's move quickly quickly. Oh, we gotta

0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:43.400
<v Speaker 1>do some big discussion about the second Amendment. Oh yeah, yeah,

0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:46.679
<v Speaker 1>And so I was spousing all this stuff about this,

0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 1>that and the other, and then everybody got real quiet,

0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:53.440

0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:21.840
<v Speaker 1>know Sandler from Stand Up No Maddim on a show

0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:26.520
<v Speaker 1>called Shakes. The knew I was gonna say Shakes the

0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:29.400
<v Speaker 1>clown because I remember I remember talking to you about

0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:32.359
<v Speaker 1>your career, and you're being like, you want a weird movie.

0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:34.320
<v Speaker 1>You want to you want to know you know what

0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:37.240
<v Speaker 1>you'd like. Writer. I guess you just knew I like weird.

<v Speaker 1>You were like, you know what you'd like, writer, Shakes

0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:41.359
<v Speaker 1>the Clown, and that's what you should watch. And I

0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:43.680
<v Speaker 1>remember getting it and be like, this is the craziest thing.

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:48.200
<v Speaker 1>I also told you about the Confederacy of Dunces. Yep, yes,

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:50.879
<v Speaker 1>that's right. The first person told me you have to

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:54.040
<v Speaker 1>read the Versay of Dunces, and you did the same

0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:56.600
<v Speaker 1>thing I did. About two thirds to the way through it,

0:20:56.600 --> 0:21:00.320
<v Speaker 1>you went, I've lost interest. Yeah, I don't know what

0:21:00.400 --> 0:21:02.960
<v Speaker 1>it was that, you know he did. He died before

0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:08.280
<v Speaker 1>it was ever published. He won a posthumous Pulitzer. But

0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:11.879
<v Speaker 1>it should have needed a rewrite, as did Shakes the Clown.

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:15.240
<v Speaker 1>If he had a couple of rewrites, it would have

0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:16.880
<v Speaker 1>been a good movie. You know, it's a good movie,

0:21:17.320 --> 0:21:22.000
<v Speaker 1>great movie. It was a movie. I got some stories

0:21:22.040 --> 0:21:28.800
<v Speaker 1>about that book. Oh I was doing, uh, doing that movie.

0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:32.280
<v Speaker 1>That's where I met Sandler and he got he had

0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 1>not gotten Saturday Night Live yet and we were doing

0:21:35.000 --> 0:21:37.200
<v Speaker 1>the movie when he found out he got Saturday Night Live.

0:21:37.920 --> 0:21:40.640
<v Speaker 1>So I called up fred Wolf, a friend of mine

0:21:40.640 --> 0:21:43.359
<v Speaker 1>who was a writer on Saturday Night Live, and I said, hey,

0:21:43.400 --> 0:21:45.399
<v Speaker 1>this is Adam. Take care of him. And they talked

0:21:45.440 --> 0:21:47.399
<v Speaker 1>on the phone. This is before cell phones, you know,

0:21:47.440 --> 0:21:50.000

<v Speaker 1>did you have any stories from Mash that I could hear?

0:23:12.119 --> 0:23:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Because I'm just it's my favorite thing ever, just that

0:23:15.320 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 1>I well, I was here. You know, the the last

0:23:20.359 --> 0:23:23.399
<v Speaker 1>episode was like two hours long, I think, yeah and

0:23:23.520 --> 0:23:26.719
<v Speaker 1>half hours long, and they had to bring back a

0:23:26.720 --> 0:23:29.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of people that they you know, had used that

0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:34.280
<v Speaker 1>were not killed or wounded or gone home or whatever.

0:23:35.440 --> 0:23:38.760
<v Speaker 1>So it was they didn't have that many roles that

0:23:38.920 --> 0:23:42.840
<v Speaker 1>we hadn't already been done. So I got the roles

0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:47.399
<v Speaker 1>of this MP, and uh, I screwed up the line

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I was. It was supposed to be once the ceasefire

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:56.880
<v Speaker 1>is signed, then we have to swap prisoners. And I said,

0:23:56.960 --> 0:24:02.960
<v Speaker 1>once to see CeaseFire's over, well that would go back

0:24:03.000 --> 0:24:09.000
<v Speaker 1>to work. So I had to go. I mean, you know,

0:24:09.080 --> 0:24:12.800
<v Speaker 1>nobody said anything then, and you know I was out

0:24:12.800 --> 0:24:17.280
<v Speaker 1>there in Malibu and or doing the doing the thing,

0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:20.320

<v Speaker 1>She was damn, I am come in there and interrupt

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:18.080
<v Speaker 1>her phone coup. She should have had me coming in

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:21.320
<v Speaker 1>at the time she was, you know. So I said,

0:29:21.520 --> 0:29:25.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, maybe I'm not right for this acting gouff.

0:29:26.280 --> 0:29:29.200
<v Speaker 1>So like when I did the first Tonight show. I

0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:32.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't even have an agent. I had no It was

0:29:32.600 --> 0:29:36.360
<v Speaker 1>like the uh I think I did another one that

0:29:36.600 --> 0:29:39.840
<v Speaker 1>was the doorman at the comedy store as well as

0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:44.160
<v Speaker 1>a comedian. I did the first Tonight show on a

0:29:44.200 --> 0:29:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday Thursday night. I was back on the door. So

0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:54.680
<v Speaker 1>I got an agent after that. How did you get

0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:56.720
<v Speaker 1>the Tonight show without an agent? How did it get

0:29:56.720 --> 0:30:00.360
<v Speaker 1>to you? I was the dormant as well as MC

0:30:00.560 --> 0:30:03.440
<v Speaker 1>and I. You know on Thursday nights or Wednesday night

0:30:03.520 --> 0:30:06.920
<v Speaker 1>said were big showcase nights. So all these people are

0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:15.360
<v Speaker 1>dead now. A guy named McCauley. Uh him, well with

0:30:15.600 --> 0:30:22.160
<v Speaker 1>McCauley first name, Yeah, what Jim, Jim McCauley. He was

0:30:22.360 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 1>the pallet coordinated for comedy. But he would come in.

0:30:25.440 --> 0:30:27.520
<v Speaker 1>I'd always make sure he got his seat and I'd

0:30:27.520 --> 0:30:29.760
<v Speaker 1>give him a you know, he get his drink for

0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:33.280
<v Speaker 1>him and all that. Take good care because that's the

0:30:33.320 --> 0:30:35.200
<v Speaker 1>way I am. It's the way I was raised. I'm

0:30:35.240 --> 0:30:37.160
<v Speaker 1>from the South. I was in the army. I was

0:30:37.200 --> 0:30:40.000
<v Speaker 1>in the military. I was a frigging lieutenant. You know,

0:30:40.040 --> 0:30:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I know how to treat people that are high ranking

0:30:43.520 --> 0:30:49.960
<v Speaker 1>with the with the respect and uh, so uh he

0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:52.160
<v Speaker 1>saw me, do you know I was him seeing So

0:30:52.240 --> 0:30:57.160
<v Speaker 1>he saw me do this material about Vietnam, and he said, uh,

0:30:57.200 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 1>you know you should do the show? What the show

0:31:02.520 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>as the standout? You're kidding me? He goes, No, put

0:31:05.960 --> 0:31:10.840
<v Speaker 1>together six minutes in a showcase for me. So I did, well,

0:31:10.840 --> 0:31:15.160
<v Speaker 1>I didn't go that. Well, you know it was like, okay,

0:31:15.160 --> 0:31:19.800
<v Speaker 1>well there goes that and then uh, I don't know

0:31:19.840 --> 0:31:22.920
<v Speaker 1>a couple of weeks, three weeks later, he comes back

0:31:22.960 --> 0:31:26.480
<v Speaker 1>to see Saint Paul Riser and you know, everybody would

0:31:26.480 --> 0:31:29.520
<v Speaker 1>always show him their material at the comedy store or

0:31:29.560 --> 0:31:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the umbro. See. He comes back and there's uh there

0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:37.239
<v Speaker 1>I am. I go, uh, I got your table over here.

0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Because they knew who was coming, they would have this list.

0:31:40.680 --> 0:31:43.240
<v Speaker 1>And he goes, when you going to showcase for me again?

0:31:43.600 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 1>You know what I thought? You didn't like me? He goes,

0:31:47.200 --> 0:31:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I didn't like your choice of material. Get different material

0:31:51.480 --> 0:31:54.840
<v Speaker 1>and showcase. I went, okay, So I did. I got

0:31:54.920 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 1>the part, and then like I mean, I got the

0:31:58.080 --> 0:32:01.360
<v Speaker 1>tonight show and I did it. Jeez, didn't you do

0:32:03.120 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 1>huh you did him? Didn't you used to do a bit?

0:32:05.440 --> 0:32:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I remember it wasn't one of your famous bits about

0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:13.640
<v Speaker 1>having a camouflage wallet. Yes, that was my That was

0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:17.360
<v Speaker 1>a bit that was real life, like what brother, you

0:32:17.480 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 1>drop it? Yes, that's right he had, but he had

0:32:21.040 --> 0:32:26.680
<v Speaker 1>an orange cattle. The wallet he kept in his pocket

0:32:26.720 --> 0:32:29.560
<v Speaker 1>was a camouflage The hat he wore on his head

0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:32.560
<v Speaker 1>was orange. How do you have a camouflage wallet? And

0:32:32.600 --> 0:32:35.960
<v Speaker 1>he goes, I, huh, yeah, you hunt? You drop it

0:32:36.000 --> 0:32:38.400
<v Speaker 1>out here. You're gonna hunt. You're gonna hunt bread And

0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I what about what about your hat? He went, oh,

0:32:42.400 --> 0:32:45.360
<v Speaker 1>my god, you that stupid. And I went, well, the

0:32:45.440 --> 0:32:47.720
<v Speaker 1>same jeans that went into that brain of yours went

0:32:47.800 --> 0:32:54.040
<v Speaker 1>in the mind. So you made a judge. He goes, dear, dear,

0:32:54.280 --> 0:32:59.120
<v Speaker 1>as everybody knows her color blind, and so he went, well,

0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:02.800
<v Speaker 1>that's really explained to the knee for a camouflaged wallet.

0:33:06.120 --> 0:33:14.360
<v Speaker 1>I do remember that. Gosh, oh my gosh, writer, do

0:33:14.400 --> 0:33:17.840
<v Speaker 1>you remember it feeling like a big deal that you

0:33:17.880 --> 0:33:21.440
<v Speaker 1>were getting to meet your dad on the show. Yeah?

0:33:21.640 --> 0:33:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I remember. I remember because you know, we had built

0:33:24.240 --> 0:33:28.400
<v Speaker 1>up Sean's family, so watch obviously, as we've seen now

0:33:28.480 --> 0:33:31.640
<v Speaker 1>watching the show, it was such a you know, it

0:33:32.120 --> 0:33:34.400
<v Speaker 1>was a legendary thing. And then of course bringing in

0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:36.880
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know when. I guess it happens second season, right,

0:33:37.160 --> 0:33:40.120
<v Speaker 1>is Blake Blake on Zo? Yes, yeah, so we haven't

0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:41.720
<v Speaker 1>we haven't seen the episode yet, Blake. So I'm just

0:33:41.760 --> 0:33:44.600
<v Speaker 1>going off my memory because I, as we've talked about

0:33:44.640 --> 0:33:46.600
<v Speaker 1>on this, I've never seen Boy Meets World. So I'm

0:33:46.640 --> 0:33:50.000
<v Speaker 1>watching this for the first time and never sort of no, no,

0:33:50.080 --> 0:33:52.240
<v Speaker 1>so this is you know, I'm learning about the show

0:33:52.280 --> 0:33:54.560
<v Speaker 1>as we go. But so what I remember is that,

0:33:54.640 --> 0:33:56.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, there was a sense of like, we're gonna

0:33:56.440 --> 0:33:59.200
<v Speaker 1>bring in your dad and it's gonna be a thing.

0:33:59.280 --> 0:34:03.040
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be you know, And and this that classroom

0:34:03.080 --> 0:34:07.320
<v Speaker 1>scene just killing. Like I just remember it being like, oh,

0:34:07.360 --> 0:34:12.120
<v Speaker 1>this is so funny and this is so um, you know,

0:34:12.160 --> 0:34:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Blake just Blake, like he's just he is who he is,

0:34:15.000 --> 0:34:19.560
<v Speaker 1>and and and you brought so much life and charm um.

0:34:19.600 --> 0:34:23.760
<v Speaker 1>But then that sort of was just on the surface.

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I feel like immediately you and I just bonded off camera,

0:34:29.080 --> 0:34:31.560
<v Speaker 1>like I just there was I don't know what it was.

0:34:31.640 --> 0:34:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think I think it was. You know,

0:34:33.800 --> 0:34:36.720
<v Speaker 1>you meet a lot of performative people who are funny

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:40.120
<v Speaker 1>and can be but they are frankly pretentious or always

0:34:40.200 --> 0:34:43.480
<v Speaker 1>on and exactly like you're describing about yourself, you just weren't.

0:34:43.520 --> 0:34:46.359
<v Speaker 1>You were saying you are so down to earth and

0:34:46.520 --> 0:34:50.120
<v Speaker 1>so not pretentious and so willing to just be yourself

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:53.360
<v Speaker 1>and talk about your real life, and that that's what

0:34:53.520 --> 0:34:56.200
<v Speaker 1>really bonded me to you. Like I just started immediately

0:34:56.239 --> 0:34:59.640
<v Speaker 1>wanting to sit and talk and hear about stories, you know.

0:34:59.800 --> 0:35:01.880
<v Speaker 1>I I remember talking about Vietnam. My dad was a

0:35:01.960 --> 0:35:04.480
<v Speaker 1>VET from Vietnam, and I remember we just we just

0:35:04.520 --> 0:35:07.640
<v Speaker 1>immediately connected, and it was like, I don't know, like

0:35:07.680 --> 0:35:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I always kind of felt a little like the like

0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:13.000
<v Speaker 1>out of place a boy meets world, and I feel

0:35:13.000 --> 0:35:14.400
<v Speaker 1>like maybe you kind of felt a little out of

0:35:14.400 --> 0:35:16.880
<v Speaker 1>place in Hollywood in general, and we just kind of

0:35:16.880 --> 0:35:18.840
<v Speaker 1>had each other. Like I just remember sitting around and

0:35:18.880 --> 0:35:21.680
<v Speaker 1>wanting to take notes and hear stories constantly, like there

0:35:21.719 --> 0:35:23.600
<v Speaker 1>was a sense of like, you know, and then as

0:35:23.640 --> 0:35:28.120
<v Speaker 1>the show went on and got more dramatic, it got

0:35:28.120 --> 0:35:30.160
<v Speaker 1>even better because then I felt like we both kind

0:35:30.160 --> 0:35:33.720
<v Speaker 1>of bonded as dramatic actors in the middle of a comedy,

0:35:33.880 --> 0:35:36.560
<v Speaker 1>like you know what we were able to Oh, you

0:35:36.560 --> 0:35:40.000
<v Speaker 1>guys were so nice and so welming, welcoming and so

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:46.360
<v Speaker 1>kind and warm and no egos, and you just, you know,

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:50.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't you don't know how impressive it is that

0:35:51.200 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>for a man like me to see these these keen

0:35:55.840 --> 0:35:59.799
<v Speaker 1>idols that you guys were, and the audience is going

0:36:00.080 --> 0:36:02.840
<v Speaker 1>nuts and you just throw it off my others. It's crazy,

0:36:03.360 --> 0:36:09.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know it never affected you guys. And

0:36:10.760 --> 0:36:15.960
<v Speaker 1>I remember one time, I don't know how old you were,

0:36:16.520 --> 0:36:24.239
<v Speaker 1>daniel maybe fifteen fourteen, yeah, and I was playing the

0:36:24.320 --> 0:36:28.320
<v Speaker 1>club and oh god, where was it? Oh, it doesn't

0:36:28.320 --> 0:36:34.879
<v Speaker 1>matter South and uh one of the other comics said, hey,

0:36:34.920 --> 0:36:38.120
<v Speaker 1>could you give me Danielle's an autograph? And I went,

0:36:39.080 --> 0:36:46.800
<v Speaker 1>you're a grown man. I don't know if I feel

0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:56.520
<v Speaker 1>good about doing it. Just more autograph atograph picture. You

0:36:56.600 --> 0:37:00.320
<v Speaker 1>remember Scream and I think I ended up hell and

0:37:00.400 --> 0:37:03.239
<v Speaker 1>you I think he did. Yeah, yeah, you know, the

0:37:03.320 --> 0:37:14.359
<v Speaker 1>guy's like thirty four years old whatever. I honestly used

0:37:14.400 --> 0:37:18.560
<v Speaker 1>to it. Yeah, yeah, unfortunately I was. I was used

0:37:18.560 --> 0:37:20.439
<v Speaker 1>to it, so I probably was like, that's a big deal.

0:37:20.480 --> 0:37:23.719
<v Speaker 1>It's all you guys just kind of took it all

0:37:23.760 --> 0:37:26.239
<v Speaker 1>in stride, you know, it was. I think a lot

0:37:26.280 --> 0:37:28.560
<v Speaker 1>of it had to do with Michael Jacobs because he

0:37:28.640 --> 0:37:32.680
<v Speaker 1>was so caring and he took looked after you guys.

0:37:32.719 --> 0:37:36.360
<v Speaker 1>And I remember one time we were getting notes and

0:37:36.560 --> 0:37:42.480
<v Speaker 1>uh he said something and and I stood up and said,

0:37:42.800 --> 0:37:47.879
<v Speaker 1>Roger derbre does history, which was from the producers. Yeah,

0:37:47.960 --> 0:37:50.719
<v Speaker 1>and he laughed. But you guys hadn't seen it yet,

0:37:52.640 --> 0:37:55.640
<v Speaker 1>like fifteen. So he said, all right, that's it. Next

0:37:55.680 --> 0:37:59.120
<v Speaker 1>week we're gonna you guys are gonna watch the Producers. Yeah,

0:37:59.120 --> 0:38:02.080
<v Speaker 1>I remember that. I remember that. Yeah, no, no, he

0:38:02.160 --> 0:38:04.360
<v Speaker 1>I remember. He was so upset that we didn't know

0:38:04.400 --> 0:38:06.680
<v Speaker 1>the producers. It was one of the like I remember

0:38:06.760 --> 0:38:09.600
<v Speaker 1>him going off on all of us, like what you

0:38:09.640 --> 0:38:12.560
<v Speaker 1>don't know the producers? This is crazy? How can you

0:38:12.600 --> 0:38:14.759
<v Speaker 1>be in the entertainment industry? Not the We were like,

0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:18.240
<v Speaker 1>oh god, I'll probably think a way to go blank. God.

0:38:18.920 --> 0:38:22.120
<v Speaker 1>We were We were used. We were used to hearing

0:38:22.160 --> 0:38:24.080
<v Speaker 1>that we were out of line for not knowing stuff

0:38:24.080 --> 0:38:28.279
<v Speaker 1>because Michael Michael used references all the time that we

0:38:28.280 --> 0:38:32.640
<v Speaker 1>didn't and we would never understand them. And surprisingly, Will

0:38:32.760 --> 0:38:40.439
<v Speaker 1>has become the Michael Jacobs contest. Will has references from

0:38:40.480 --> 0:38:44.440
<v Speaker 1>things that were like, what what are you talking about?

0:38:43.800 --> 0:38:49.200
<v Speaker 1>He knew all this stuff when he was teaching me. Yeah,

0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:54.839
<v Speaker 1>it's crazy what Alan Smithy film was that will Yeah,

0:38:54.880 --> 0:38:58.279
<v Speaker 1>he remembers movies before they were talkies. I do. I do. Well,

0:38:58.320 --> 0:39:04.440
<v Speaker 1>that's because they're great before they were made. No, Michael

0:39:04.520 --> 0:39:06.640
<v Speaker 1>kept that. One thing Michael was very very good at

0:39:06.760 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 1>was he kept us all grounded. He really made sure

0:39:10.120 --> 0:39:12.719
<v Speaker 1>that it never went to our head. I mean we've

0:39:12.719 --> 0:39:14.800
<v Speaker 1>talked about this where he would gather us and say,

0:39:15.040 --> 0:39:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I just want you all to remember this ends, yep,

0:39:18.080 --> 0:39:21.400
<v Speaker 1>this could end tomorrow and at the end of the day,

0:39:21.440 --> 0:39:23.960
<v Speaker 1>You've had an amazing experience. And he just he really

0:39:24.000 --> 0:39:26.920
<v Speaker 1>made sure that we we never we like, ego just

0:39:27.040 --> 0:39:28.920
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a thing on our set. We just were not

0:39:29.440 --> 0:39:33.680
<v Speaker 1>allowed to have it. Yeah, No, it's true, it's he was.

0:39:33.760 --> 0:39:35.759
<v Speaker 1>He was really really good at that, he really was.

0:39:36.960 --> 0:39:38.840
<v Speaker 1>I wish we could work together more, Blake, You and

0:39:38.840 --> 0:39:40.839
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get a chance to work together all that much,

0:39:40.920 --> 0:39:43.360
<v Speaker 1>which is because the characters were kind of in different

0:39:43.360 --> 0:39:45.960
<v Speaker 1>worlds by the point he came on. Yeah, and so

0:39:46.160 --> 0:39:51.120
<v Speaker 1>never really got a chance. Yeah, unfortunately. But we hung out, yeah,

0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:54.960
<v Speaker 1>which was nice. And I learned the left like I

0:39:55.000 --> 0:40:00.719
<v Speaker 1>didn't know who I remember not knowing who Deno Rio was,

0:40:00.800 --> 0:40:04.000
<v Speaker 1>and you were okay, chilly, yeah, yeah, the guy in

0:40:04.120 --> 0:40:12.960
<v Speaker 1>the Edgar Edgar and many black Yepsen Ao, he was

0:40:13.000 --> 0:40:16.239
<v Speaker 1>the same guy in full metal jacket. And I wasn't

0:40:16.719 --> 0:40:21.000
<v Speaker 1>yet and I went, no, no, no, and I went

0:40:21.040 --> 0:40:23.480
<v Speaker 1>and looked it up because I didn't he can't be

0:40:24.560 --> 0:40:37.359
<v Speaker 1>and he was. He was. Yeah, Blake, do you have

0:40:37.640 --> 0:40:39.520

0:40:52.239 --> 0:40:56.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I used to not like to watch myself

0:41:36.880 --> 0:41:39.279
<v Speaker 1>one show that you were on that you you were

<v Speaker 1>like that that's the show, that's that's the show that

0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:45.200
<v Speaker 1>really mattered to me, or what the experience was amazing,

0:41:45.400 --> 0:41:47.920
<v Speaker 1>or you just loved the show. I mean there's family

0:41:50.000 --> 0:41:52.640
<v Speaker 1>So what which one pops out to you. That's a

0:41:52.680 --> 0:41:57.719
<v Speaker 1>hard question, geez, I don't know. Um there's still boy.

0:41:57.960 --> 0:42:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Twirl was very important to me. And one of the

0:42:02.120 --> 0:42:05.279
<v Speaker 1>things that that that I because the boy MutS were on,

0:42:05.400 --> 0:42:10.120
<v Speaker 1>because of Home Improvement and because of Sandler movies, I

0:42:10.200 --> 0:42:13.560
<v Speaker 1>had you know, pretty wide uh I won't say following,

0:42:13.600 --> 0:42:15.520
<v Speaker 1>but they knew who kind of knew who I was,

0:42:16.600 --> 0:42:19.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, like those kids in the club in Detroit,

0:42:19.600 --> 0:42:23.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, and then older people that like when we

0:42:23.080 --> 0:42:29.279
<v Speaker 1>were doing water Boy and in Orlando, we were at

0:42:29.320 --> 0:42:32.120
<v Speaker 1>this old we were it was a night shoot. We

0:42:32.120 --> 0:42:36.360
<v Speaker 1>were in this whole trailer park for old people, retired

0:42:36.400 --> 0:42:38.839
<v Speaker 1>people you know that ain't dead yet, we're getting ready

0:42:38.840 --> 0:42:41.919
<v Speaker 1>to be dead whatever kind of like it is down

0:42:41.920 --> 0:42:47.680
<v Speaker 1>there now. And I don't understand this country and it

0:42:47.719 --> 0:42:50.880
<v Speaker 1>is you know, if I could go back to Noam

0:42:50.960 --> 0:42:53.080
<v Speaker 1>and I know what no one I go now, I

0:42:53.120 --> 0:42:59.400
<v Speaker 1>think I would have surrendered let's get here here in

0:42:59.480 --> 0:43:07.360
<v Speaker 1>my weapon. You guys got it right, but uh so

0:43:08.719 --> 0:43:17.319
<v Speaker 1>this really frosted Snyder's uh cajonis uh in spades. These

0:43:17.360 --> 0:43:19.120
<v Speaker 1>old farts were out there that way. I don't know

0:43:19.120 --> 0:43:21.400
<v Speaker 1>who those guys. I know that guy, he pointed me.

0:43:21.520 --> 0:43:27.759
<v Speaker 1>He's on that Yea. So they old people knew who

0:43:27.760 --> 0:43:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I was, and you knew who I was, but the

0:43:30.360 --> 0:43:34.240
<v Speaker 1>vast majority people in the middle had no clue. No anyway,

0:43:34.920 --> 0:43:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's awesome. Yeah, so I it would be I

0:43:39.080 --> 0:43:41.640
<v Speaker 1>don't know if it would be a television show. Maybe

0:43:41.760 --> 0:43:44.840
<v Speaker 1>I guess the last episode of Match because it most

0:43:44.880 --> 0:43:51.120
<v Speaker 1>washed episodic TV and history still is. And uh or

0:43:51.120 --> 0:43:54.360
<v Speaker 1>it could be water Boy as a movie because that

0:43:54.520 --> 0:43:57.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of put me on the map. Oh, everybody where

0:43:57.760 --> 0:43:59.919
<v Speaker 1>you all of a sudden, you were to the point

0:44:00.040 --> 0:44:02.560
<v Speaker 1>were you know, you'd walk out for Halloween and every

0:44:02.600 --> 0:44:05.040
<v Speaker 1>other person was dressed like you for Halloween. I mean

0:44:05.040 --> 0:44:07.920
<v Speaker 1>it was like it you became such a such an

0:44:08.080 --> 0:44:10.839
<v Speaker 1>iconic character that it was just it was everywhere. That's

0:44:10.840 --> 0:44:15.720
<v Speaker 1>so cool. Yeah. I told Sandler this, and and fred

0:44:15.760 --> 0:44:18.319
<v Speaker 1>Wolf in Spain and all those guys. They said when

0:44:18.320 --> 0:44:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I went to Iraq in Afghanistan with Robin. I'd start

0:44:23.400 --> 0:44:26.520
<v Speaker 1>my show by going amount of time Babu Jana Field

0:44:26.560 --> 0:44:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and they go nuts. They and you know, three thousand

0:44:31.440 --> 0:44:36.120
<v Speaker 1>troops with weapons. They didn't want to piss them all.

0:44:37.719 --> 0:44:41.960
<v Speaker 1>They had laser sights. That was a big world. We'd

0:44:41.960 --> 0:44:47.920
<v Speaker 1>had that stuff anyway, and the night vision stuff to hit, yeah,

0:44:47.960 --> 0:44:51.319
<v Speaker 1>and the como and the satellites. I never knew where

0:44:51.320 --> 0:44:54.920
<v Speaker 1>I was in Vietnam. I was really hardly of a

0:44:54.920 --> 0:44:59.920
<v Speaker 1>new world. Was in Georgia. But wasn't that important then?

0:45:01.719 --> 0:45:06.440
<v Speaker 1>But so and then I do my little silly stuff

0:45:06.640 --> 0:45:08.759
<v Speaker 1>and then at the end I would say, yeah, this

0:45:08.880 --> 0:45:12.640
<v Speaker 1>place is uh dusty, and it's dirty and it's hot

0:45:12.719 --> 0:45:16.279
<v Speaker 1>and it's dangerous, but just remember this, guys, holy way

0:45:16.320 --> 0:45:21.640
<v Speaker 1>you make it. And they would go nuts again. So

0:45:21.760 --> 0:45:25.840
<v Speaker 1>I told Adam that and told Fred Wolf who wrote

0:45:25.920 --> 0:45:29.520
<v Speaker 1>show Dirt, and he loved it. I'm still doing boys.

0:45:29.719 --> 0:45:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I still do Slinky Dog, what time I know La,

0:45:35.280 --> 0:45:39.279
<v Speaker 1>I still do that the voice over stuff. So you know,

0:45:39.719 --> 0:45:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm seventy seven years old. There were times when I

0:45:43.000 --> 0:45:46.160
<v Speaker 1>thought I'd never seen the next day, and that was

0:45:46.680 --> 0:45:53.359
<v Speaker 1>why I don't play tults anymore. But now there were

0:45:53.440 --> 0:45:57.040
<v Speaker 1>times when I was pretty sure it was over and

0:45:57.680 --> 0:46:01.280
<v Speaker 1>whatever happened happened or didn't happen. Most of them didn't

0:46:02.040 --> 0:46:05.120
<v Speaker 1>because they would say, go tack that hill moment. I

0:46:05.120 --> 0:46:11.759
<v Speaker 1>don't really want let's take that hill. I don't want it.

0:46:11.840 --> 0:46:14.560
<v Speaker 1>I really don't. I don't want to be up there

0:46:14.560 --> 0:46:16.560
<v Speaker 1>with with weapons, and they seem to want it. So

0:46:16.920 --> 0:46:20.759
<v Speaker 1>I think we should let him have, yeah, some kind

0:46:20.760 --> 0:46:26.680
<v Speaker 1>of time share with him. I want to I want

0:46:26.719 --> 0:46:29.200
<v Speaker 1>to ask you another question about boy Meat's world because

0:46:29.320 --> 0:46:32.400
<v Speaker 1>later in the seasons, uh we we brought in Matthew

0:46:32.440 --> 0:46:36.919
<v Speaker 1>Lawrence and he played Jack Sean's half brother. How did

0:46:37.200 --> 0:46:40.120
<v Speaker 1>having matt there change the dynamic between the two of

0:46:40.200 --> 0:46:43.640
<v Speaker 1>you with father and son? How did that change everything? Well,

0:46:43.640 --> 0:46:46.759
<v Speaker 1>I you know, I had two sons. Oh still do,

0:46:47.680 --> 0:46:51.680
<v Speaker 1>and you know, so I kind of took that. I

0:46:52.120 --> 0:46:56.920
<v Speaker 1>use that as a template. Whereas Ryder was you know,

0:46:58.840 --> 0:47:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I guess my I guess he would be my favorite,

0:47:03.520 --> 0:47:05.759
<v Speaker 1>but I knew him better. I didn't really know the

0:47:05.800 --> 0:47:09.759
<v Speaker 1>other kid, you know, or a character was Yeah, but

0:47:10.000 --> 0:47:12.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't I know Matthew. I mean, I had done

0:47:12.800 --> 0:47:15.680
<v Speaker 1>give me a break with Joey and Matthew, you know,

0:47:16.239 --> 0:47:19.840
<v Speaker 1>but he was just a little kid. Yeah, little toddler.

0:47:20.600 --> 0:47:22.400
<v Speaker 1>So I've known him for a long time, and I

0:47:22.440 --> 0:47:25.719
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I think it kind of worked out right

0:47:25.840 --> 0:47:30.640
<v Speaker 1>because I think it called for me and writer to

0:47:30.760 --> 0:47:34.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of bond closer, and he was almost we almost

0:47:34.080 --> 0:47:36.600
<v Speaker 1>treated him like an outsider until he kind of said,

0:47:36.680 --> 0:47:39.760
<v Speaker 1>you're treating me like an outsider, and then we tried

0:47:39.800 --> 0:47:44.440
<v Speaker 1>not to so the characters and uh, you know, but

0:47:44.560 --> 0:47:48.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I just kind of let it play

0:47:48.800 --> 0:47:51.560
<v Speaker 1>out that this is the kid I know. The other

0:47:51.640 --> 0:47:54.080
<v Speaker 1>kid I don't, but I've learned to know him. I

0:47:54.160 --> 0:47:58.759
<v Speaker 1>fist he is my son. Yeah, did they ever did

0:47:58.840 --> 0:48:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Did they give you a heads up that they were

0:48:01.080 --> 0:48:04.759
<v Speaker 1>going to do a whole chet die see episode? Or

0:48:04.840 --> 0:48:08.160
<v Speaker 1>was that just out of nowhere? Jesus, they can't mainly

0:48:08.280 --> 0:48:13.239
<v Speaker 1>said you're dead? Okay? Are we the only show that

0:48:13.280 --> 0:48:16.720
<v Speaker 1>had you die and then come back? Come back? A ghost?

0:48:17.840 --> 0:48:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Couple of things, A couple of things. He's done so

0:48:23.239 --> 0:48:26.080
<v Speaker 1>much work he's done at all. Oh my god, that's

0:48:27.200 --> 0:48:39.320
<v Speaker 1>that's my specialty. It comes in and now put ghost

0:48:39.400 --> 0:48:42.640
<v Speaker 1>work and your special skills, right. I think it was

0:48:43.760 --> 0:48:48.279
<v Speaker 1>more as a ghost than I think that's true. You

0:48:48.320 --> 0:48:50.800
<v Speaker 1>did end up doing like three or four episodes after

0:48:50.880 --> 0:48:58.000
<v Speaker 1>you die girl yea with a cast on my leg. Yeah,

0:48:58.120 --> 0:49:03.279
<v Speaker 1>that's right, that's right. Things. Ain't you better when you

0:49:02.280 --> 0:49:09.759

0:49:12.280 --> 0:49:16.000
<v Speaker 1>What do you remember most from that time? Um, that

0:49:16.160 --> 0:49:21.919
<v Speaker 1>I was in the Cats sounds about right. And it

0:49:22.000 --> 0:49:24.320

0:52:12.520 --> 0:52:15.480
<v Speaker 1>he'd lay on the on the couch with a stack

0:52:15.520 --> 0:52:19.440
<v Speaker 1>of magazine, scratching his back on are you are you

0:52:48.840 --> 0:52:54.280

0:53:03.000 --> 0:53:04.880
<v Speaker 1>At least that's what he said. Maybe he just didn't

0:53:04.880 --> 0:53:10.680
<v Speaker 1>want to. But he was a character. It is very smart.

0:58:05.320 --> 0:58:07.680
<v Speaker 1>first golf war and still nothing compared to Vietnam. But

0:58:10.280 --> 0:58:12.040

0:58:12.080 --> 0:58:14.760

0:58:24.080 --> 0:58:26.560
<v Speaker 1>those people who you ask him a question about one thing,

0:58:26.680 --> 0:58:29.360

0:58:40.000 --> 0:58:41.800
<v Speaker 1>ask you about all these things. Yeah, you can do

0:58:41.840 --> 0:58:44.440
<v Speaker 1>an entire show just about being a comedian in the eighties.

0:58:44.480 --> 0:58:46.560
<v Speaker 1>You could do an entire show just about being in Vietnam.

0:58:46.640 --> 0:58:48.360
<v Speaker 1>You could do an entire show just about growing up

0:58:48.360 --> 0:58:50.000
<v Speaker 1>in the South when he did I mean, you name it,

0:58:50.480 --> 0:58:52.360

0:58:52.400 --> 0:58:54.439
<v Speaker 1>movies that he did, just that we didn't even touch

0:58:54.440 --> 0:58:56.680
<v Speaker 1>on the fact that he performed overseas with Robin Williams.

0:58:56.760 --> 0:58:59.240

<v Speaker 1>were definitely episodes that Ethan was in that Blake was not.

1:00:17.440 --> 1:00:20.520

<v Speaker 1>was talking, you'd never be able to make a phone

1:00:41.880 --> 1:00:44.320
<v Speaker 1>call and ask for a reservation or do anything like,

1:00:44.800 --> 1:00:46.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, even just try to like get into an

1:00:46.720 --> 1:00:48.600
<v Speaker 1>argument with somebody on the phone, like over a credit

1:00:48.640 --> 1:00:51.919
