Speaker 2: this is the only podcast where you can spin a

6
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: wheel it lands on a word and we talk about

7
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: that word for like forty five minutes.

8
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 3: It's pretty frickin' awesome. It's kind of stupendous. Actually, wow, stupendous.

9
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 3: That's a large word. I mean, I think it's I

10
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 3: think it is. I think stupidous.

11
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 2: I feel like Barney taught me that word.

12
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:44,599
Speaker 3: It's stupendous.

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 2: That's not a Barney accent.

14
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 3: No, it's stupid. That sounded like. That's my the one

15
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 3: thing I know how to say in Russian asta roshna stupenky.

16
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: What does that mean?

17
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: It means careful the stairs?

18
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 2: Cool? Cool? You know what, I'm.

19
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 3: Gonna use that. I absolutely think you should.

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: When was the last time you actually used it in public?

21
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 3: Oh? In public?

22
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: Yeah?

23
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: No, I've never used it in public. But I think

24
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 3: it's a great flex. I mean, also, I know that's vidagna.

25
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but the spanky thing. That's a flex.

26
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 3: That's like nobody banky.

27
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 2: Sounds so officials careful. There's only one flight of stance. Okay,

28
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: I have a question about stairs because sometimes when I

29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: walk upstairs, I have this weird like image in my

30
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 2: brain of me falling down them?

31
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: Do you ever have that?

32
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: Like every staircase I walk up and down, I'm like,

33
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 2: don't fall, don't fall, don't fall. I think it was

34
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: because of Death Becomes Her the movie.

35
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: Oh are you so you have the anxiety of tripping

36
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: while you're falling up and falling down?

37
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: Yeah?

38
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 2: Like busting my head open.

39
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 3: No, the only stare anxiety that I have is you

40
00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 3: pushing me down them me you you push me down

41
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 3: the stairs.

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: I wonder why you have that anxiety.

43
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.

44
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: Who would listen. I am not an abusive partner. That

45
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 2: is an anxiety of hers. I don't do that. If

46
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: hands get laid on you, they're on your titties and

47
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 2: that's it.

48
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 3: Can we cue the applauds and the laughter. Please? I

49
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 3: think it's been Oh wow, it's moral. Wah wah wah wah.

50
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 3: You know, actually we should talk about titties for a second,

51
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 3: because I don't really have any, and you love them.

52
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I just feel like I should.

53
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: I do love your titties.

54
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: No, no, no, but I don't really have like I have

55
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:38,399
Speaker 3: very You have a handful.

56
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're just right, there's a handful.

57
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 3: Back to the stairs really quickly. You know what else

58
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,120

Speaker 2: on another episode because I could get into it.

62
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 3: I mean, first of all, such a sad story. Absolutely,

63
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 3: but like Tony Kollette and that fall and that that

64
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 3: look is like forever ingrained in my burned into my

65
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 3: frontal cortex.

66
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,040

71
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 2: You know, this new generation loves interaction, and we interact

72
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 2: with something that sounds like this and it lands on

73
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: a word now, babes.

74
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 3: It also is really great because this generation, for the

75
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 3: most part, is really into owning their ADHD and their

76
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 3: neurodivergent self. If you go into spicy neurows, yeah, and

77
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,839
Speaker 3: if you go into TikTok, it's like all you see

Speaker 3: is my ADHD and this is my new fixation. They're

79
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 3: taking it back, you know.

80
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,960

81
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: It's my superpower. But that's what this show is all about, and.

82
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 3: We're taking it back by saying, listen to this conversation

83
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 3: we've just had. So we've basically just had an ADHD conversation.

Speaker 2: my dad, my stage dad. I have watched him my

101
00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: whole life. You know, a lot of people come to

103
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 2: but this man is my childhood. I watched him on

104
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 2: a show at like four o'clock in the morning on

105
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: Nick at Night, didn't realize he was a comedian, just

106
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 2: wanted his hair. And then when he had his cartoon,

107
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: I was like, stuck to the screen.

108
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 3: I love this man. He's pretty cool, I would agree.

109
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 3: And I've gotten to know him a little bit better

110
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 3: now because of you and your connection to him. And

111
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 3: then I learned more about him and I was like, wow,

112
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 3: he is so cool.

113
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: He's so cool. I also want to raid his closet.

114
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 2: But that's a conversation we can have.

115
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 3: Closet is incredible. It's I don't even understand. I'm just like,

116
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:40,240

Speaker 2: And then I have to put my rabbit right here.

00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 2: Where are you sitting right now in a chair? Oh?

00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 4: porn in my office.

165
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,320

Speaker 2: oh my god, I've seen that building before, had to

167
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 2: rack your brain and realize it was from touch my

168
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 2: titties two and three?

169
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: I don't know.

170
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 4: I do watch. You know I have partaken in the viewership.

171
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 4: You know I'm a viewer. But a lot, not a lot,

172
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 4: of what I watch has exterior shots.

173
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 2: Okay, you don't like the story, you like to get

174
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: down to it.

175
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 4: You like internal No, I have never recognized the building,

176
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 4: and there is nothing in this area that I would

177
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 4: if I was a porn producer that I would go, oh,

178
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 4: we got to get a we got to getet a

179
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: shot of this building. Because it's usually that the gardener

180
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 4: shows up, or the pizza guy shows up, or somebody,

181
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 4: or it's the babysitter or that.

182
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: But it's not the warehouse worker.

183
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 2: No or no.

184
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 4: It's never like, oh, this will be great for outside

185
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 4: of the warehouse. These are just nondescript building.

186
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I make sure when I pass by your

187
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 2: building again, I have to make sure I catch up

188
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 2: on my videos to see if I recognize anything. For

189
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: you and be like, you're standing next to a famous building.

190
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 4: Well, you know, the truth of the matter is, one

191
00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 4: time I did production. I produced a show called which

192
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 4: was a flashmob show for Fox, you know, and on broadcast.

193
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 4: And you know, you always have to rent production space

194
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 4: as far as offices, you know, for the producers and

195
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 4: the writers. And I've got a real good deal on

196
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 4: a building on Lancashim which was the Vivid Building.

197
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: And remember the Vivid Building.

198
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: Of course I was a tenant.

199
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 4: But but but we all know what Vivid.

200
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: Well most people don't.

201
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 4: A lot of kids maybe don't know, but Vivid is

202
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 4: was a is it still around?

203
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if that building has gone now?

204
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 3: Is it really? Yeah, it's gone.

205
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 2: I passed by and look at it every day, and

206
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 2: it's gone. And I've actually seen a video. I saw

207
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 2: a video once of a Vivid It was a Vivid

208
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,480

209
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 2: was blue awning. Don't ask me why I remember so much,

210
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 2: and I remember it was the vivid awning that I

211
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,839

00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 3: in life, patio furniture and porn.

218
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 4: But what was funny about it was, you know we

219
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 4: were there doing In fact, patio was part of our

220
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 4: office building we got. We we rented the outdoor space too,

221
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 4: and the indoor space we would have our meetings outside.

222
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 4: Who anyway, And I'm not kidding, but you know, it

223
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 4: takes a village to create a show, and this was

224
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 4: a nice, family friendly, great show with a nice family

225
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 4: friendly team and crew, not unlike what you probably have

226
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 4: on your shows.

227
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: Uh and but what was.

228
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 4: It was really hard for well funny and uncomfortable for

229
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 4: the female staff of our production, you know, producer, directors

230
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 4: and post production people. They would walk just parking and

231
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 4: walking into the lobby of the Vivid building. It was

232
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,439
Speaker 4: they had to make it really clear that they were

233
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 4: going to the third floor, not the fourth floor.

234
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 2: Were they going through the back door? Did they go

235
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: through the back door too?

236
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: I saw that film.

237
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 3: Through the back Door, Volumes one, two, and three.

238
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 4: If they saw anybody, they would pretend they were talking

239
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 4: to somebody.

240
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: They'd put their phone to their ear.

241
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 4: They'd go, no, I'm at the office now, I'm going

242
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 4: to do mob down the third floor. They weren't talking

243
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 4: to anybody, but they just wanted to make sure that

244
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 4: they weren't that nobody thought they were the porn stars.

245
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: That's that's kind of them, you know, that's really kind

246
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 2: of them.

247
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:34,120

Speaker 4: be there.

261
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 3: Raven considers you a father. She literally is like, Oh,

262
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 3: how is like my dad that I never had that

263
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 3: I always wanted. He's that person. And it's also because

264
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 3: you're so stylish that she's just like, he's the dad

265
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 3: that I could go shopping in his closet and wear

266
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 3: his clothes.

267
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 4: My daughter does take my stuff my daughter. Somebody will

268
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 4: say to Jackie, who I do? I co host my podcast.

269
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 3: With do you remember you guys? Prank not Prank called me,

270
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 3: but you guys called me to talk about period blood

271
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 3: and placentas. And I was like, what's going on? And

272
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: then I watched the episode on YouTube and I heard

273
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: the whole conversation. It made so much more sense. But

274
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 3: I thought it was great. I was very entertained by it.

275
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 2: I was very entertained by it as well. I don't

276
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 2: normally like to watch stuff that I do, but I

277
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 2: did feel comfortable talking to you, and I appreciated you

278
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: really trying to push me to say certain things. And

279
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 2: you may ask, Raven, you only met me like a

280
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 2: couple of times, why are you like my dad? And

281
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: why are you like a dad in my head? And

282
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 2: it's because your thought process, your kindness, but also your

283
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: ambition and your willingness to try new things. Like one

284
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: thing that we know about Howie Mendel is that if

285
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 2: there's a new social media, if there's something new, you're

286
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: going to try it. You're going to invest in what

287
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,599
Speaker 2: you believe in. And those values are so amazing to me,

288
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 2: especially in this industry. Your kind and you talk to me.

289
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 3: I think that Howie is the ultimate yes man. That's

290
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 3: what I really took away from one of the conversations

291
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 3: you and I had, Howie, and I thought it was

292
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 3: so fantastic because you also kind of looped that into

293
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 3: how that's a way in which you balance your mental

294
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 3: health and that you also just stay engaged in life

295
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 3: and you say yes to opportunities and things. And I

296
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 3: love that.

297
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: I have a fear of no.

298
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 4: You know, oh is spelt N, O, and nothing is

299
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 4: also starts with the letters and oh. So nothing comes

300
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 4: from no or no, get you nothing? But yes, I'm

301
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 4: always afraid, you know, I've got phone moment. I'm afraid

302
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 4: of missing out. I'm afraid of not being there. And

303
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 4: the worst case scenario to say yes is to walk

304
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 4: away with an experience or a piece of education of

305
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 4: maybe that's a lane that I won't go down again

306
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 4: because I learned something. But nothing bad has come from yes,

307
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 4: and everything that I've missed out on comes from no.

308
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 2: So while you were telling us this, I had this

309
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 2: weird question come into my head. Has nothing to do

310
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 2: with oh nothing. See how I came up that. Before

311
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: we get into the next thing, I just have this question.

312
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: Were you were in the seventies? Right? Yeah, yeah, you

313
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: were in the seventies.

314
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: You were right, you were around the seventies warribe, Oh

315
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: my god.

316
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: I'll just ask it seventies or the two thousands? Which one?

317
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 2: Seventies or the two thousands?

318
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 3: Which time time you prefer?

319
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 4: You for me, I'll tell what the time period is.

320
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 4: And this is how I live, and this is my philosophy.

321
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 4: It's just now, not even yesterday, not even a decade

322
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 4: it's just now, because that's the only thing that's real,

323
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know what, you know, my perception

324
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 4: of what happened in the seventies a lot of fun,

325
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 4: but I don't know if it's real. I don't know

326
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 4: if it's just my take on it. I also don't

327
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 4: know what's going to happen tomorrow. The only thing I

328
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 4: know is now, and the only thing that I have

329
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 4: is now, and the only thing I could celebrate is now.

330
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 4: So I I mean that sounds kind of corny, but

331
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 4: also for my mental health, if I live in the

332
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 4: exact moment and only think about the exact moment, that

333
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 4: keeps me, you know, present, and it keeps me engaged,

334
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 4: and it keeps me kind of that's the distraction, you know,

335
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 4: because distraction is my is my panacea. I if I

336
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 4: start thinking about the past, then you know, I could

337
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 4: be that that could bring up kind of negative things.

338
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 4: Not that negative things happen in the past, but even like,

339
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 4: oh that was great, and I don't have that anymore. Yeah,

340
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 4: you know, And I find that people, you I don't know,

341
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 4: you know, I'm an old guy, and and uh, I

342
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 4: find that people the normal the normal path of humanity is.

343
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: We start off incredibly curious.

344
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 4: That's how come where babies can learn languages and learn

345
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 4: things and are so excited about everything because they're excited

346
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 4: about in the moment.

347
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: And then they're curious.

348
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 4: And we watch TV and we we look at magazines,

349
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 4: and we listen to music, and we go, we want

350
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 4: to find out what everybody's wearing, and we want to

351
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 4: find out what everybody's listening to, and we want to

352
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 4: find out what that we want to talk about, whatever

353
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 4: the trend is in the moment. And then what happens

354
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 4: is we kind of.

355
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: Lose that as yeah, we do, we use that fire.

356
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 4: You become an older person where your curiosity kind of fades,

357
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 4: and then maybe if there's something on somebody's listening to music,

358
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 4: you'll go, that's not music. I'll tell you what music was.

359
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 4: Music was back back then, Well that's not true. That

360
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 4: was music that hit you in the moment.

361
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: The music that's now is now. There's no you can't compare.

362
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 4: You really can't compare, because it is what's happening now

363
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 4: is not what happened then. It doesn't come you know,

364
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 4: these are the experiences of the people that are making

365
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 4: the music and how they're making the music out. Your

366
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 4: people tell me all the time, like they're not even

367
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,919
Speaker 4: using like instruments anymore.

368
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: It's all computer. That's amazing.

369
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,959
Speaker 4: It's amazing that they find out that they can, you know, Charlie,

370
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 4: who can make a song out of a light switch?

371
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: You know?

372
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 4: And now, but it is wild and creative, and so

373
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 4: I've learned to kind of lean into now, and sometimes

374
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 4: being in now is incredibly confusing. As somebody who's in comedy,

375
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 4: you know, I when I started getting into more digital things,

376
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 4: I would see things that get one hundred million clicks

377
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 4: and then I'd be reading the comments and they go,

378
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 4: the funniest thing I ever saw, the funny this is hysterical.

379
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 4: And I'll be honest with you, I didn't get it.

380
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 4: And I'm and it's it's amazing to me that this

381
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 4: engaged one.

382
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: Hundred million people.

383
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 4: So I sit down with young people in my office

384
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 4: or my kids, and I'll go, tell me why.

385
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: This is success?

386
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I do see that. I want to

387
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 4: see that. I want to know why this is what

388
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 4: they're responding to when.

389
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:29,199
Speaker 1: I make that up?

390
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 3: Why you chose to do a reaction video to a

391
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 3: prolapsed anus.

392
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 1: Well that was just ignorance. So really was So that

393
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: was I'll tell you what it was.

00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 2: That I have to clean immediately.

473
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 3: Now, Well, that is a nightmare.

474
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 4: That a nightmare, Like that's a pleasure, oh cup, and

475
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 4: my ass was outside of me, that would Yeah.

476
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 2: But the thing is is people actually people actually go

477
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 2: through that with nightmares. A lot of nightmares don't come true.

478
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,439
Speaker 2: We're talking about those moments where you're in bed, you

479
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: wake up and you're sweating profusely, Like, have you ever Okay,

480
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 2: I have a question for you, Howie, has your wife

481
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 2: ever had a nightmare and then woke up and hit

482
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 2: you saying that it's your fault. You're like, I didn't

483
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 2: do anything. It was actually in her nightmare.

484
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: Yes, I've been a yes is the answer to that.

485
00:22:58,960 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: And she had a.

486
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 4: Nightmare that I think what happened was one night she

487
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 4: told me that I think I snuggled too close to

488
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 4: her while she was sleeping, and she had a nightmare

489
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 4: that there was something on her neck, so she just

490
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 4: smashed it away, but in her sleep in it being

491
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 4: me and she said she was sleeping and she said

492
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 4: it was a nightmare. But then again, living with me

493
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,439
Speaker 4: is annoying, and that's just a good that could have

494
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 4: been an excuse.

495
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: I think it was.

496
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 3: It's just a sucker on you.

497
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 4: You know, you have a nightmare where you have to

498
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 4: go you have to go to the bathroom really badly,

499
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 4: and you're just looking and and you can't you can't

500
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 4: find it. And then finally, like I dreamt, I was

501
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 4: camping and I went behind the tree and I relieved

502
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 4: myself and then the dream was over and then I

503
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 4: woke up and I had peede yourself.

504
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know what.

505
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 3: I've done?

506
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: Yes, I did. But the upside of that is dreams

507
00:23:59,240 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: can come.

508
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 3: True, soaken nightmares.

509
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 2: Dreams and nightmares can come true.

510
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 3: Did either of you have nightmares as children? Like were

511
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 3: you or did any of your kids have night terrors?

512
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 3: Have you seen people have night terrors?

513
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 1: Yeah?

514
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 4: I my daughter, one of my daughters. Not Jackie who

515
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 4: hosts how he does stuff with me. My other daughter

516
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 4: had horrible night terrors for years and years. I videotaped

517
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 4: them and took it to a doctor. He told me

518
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 4: their nighttares. I don't know what they are. But we

519
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 4: couldn't wake her up, and she would get out of

520
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 4: bed screaming and running and not remember it was she thirty, no,

521
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 4: all the way till about five or six years old.

522
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 3: And did they tell you not to wake her?

523
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 4: We couldn't wait. Yes, they told us not to wake her,

524
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 4: but or to be really gentle. Yeah, but I've had

525
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 4: I had a lot.

526
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: Of nightmares as a kid.

527
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 4: I was always you know, and maybe it's my mental health,

528
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 4: but I live in you know, also another fuel of mind,

529
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 4: curiosity and fear. So all my nightmares, I had horrible nightmares.

530
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 4: I was always in a scary place.

531
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: Any tell us one do you remember.

532
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 4: Any Yeah, my mom, my mom's decapitated head used to

533
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 4: follow me around the house. I used to be afraid

534
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 4: of her when she was when I was a little kid,

535
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 4: you know, at that time, I don't know.

536
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: You see again, you're bringing back that well, you brought

537
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: back the past.

538
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 4: But in the sixties, in the early sixties, and I

539
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 4: think still before the weekend. Women used to do their

540
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 4: own hair, and she'd have her hair and curlers, have

541
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 4: her hair and curlers. My mom smoked too, so she

542
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 4: smoked and she had curlers. And I remember as a

543
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 4: little kid thinking it's kind of scary looking. I don't

544
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 4: really understand metal shit on her head is. And I

545
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 4: used to have nightmares of my mom's just her head

546
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 4: floating around.

547
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: The house with a cigarette and curlers chasing.

548
00:25:58,240 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 2: I feel like that's something you would see in the

549
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 2: movie Beetlejuice, Like that's such.

550
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 3: A Beetlejuice character, absolutely, or like Adam's it's the hand,

551
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 3: it's a hand for sure.

552
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 4: Mine, I'd always be in trouble so that that head

553
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 4: was never happy with me.

554
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 2: You know a lot of times in nightmares, you know,

555
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 2: you can look up what dreams mean, you can look

556
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 2: up you know all those things. And I don't know

557
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 2: what that means for you. I know, bees kind of mean,

558
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 2: you know, cancer sometimes and when you see water it

559
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 2: means clearing out of things. But your mom's decapitated head

560
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 2: rolling around your bedroom. I don't know if dream Dictionary

561
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: would actually help.

562
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 4: Me with that for you, Uh, you google it right

563
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 4: now you're sitting there. Google it, Google it, say, what

564
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 4: does is there any meaning to see a decapitated head

565
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 4: of your mother floating around?

566
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: What does that mean? On it?

567
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 3: You guys talkin I think that it would have to

568
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 3: be what you were saying though, Howie, that you were

569
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 3: scared of her and that your subjec Why did it just.

570
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 4: Have to be your head? Well, I just her head. See,

571
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 4: maybe there's some meaning to that. No, I just learned

572
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 4: as Raven was talking that bees mean cancer, and I've

573
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 4: never even heard that. I don't know the meanings of dreams.

574
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 4: I've never even looked up or explored what dreams mean.

575
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, there are significant meanings in certain things, Like I

576
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 3: also know teeth is another one. Losing your teeth. Oh, yeah,

577
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 3: that's a big one. That's a big one that, like

578
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 3: I guess a lot of people have. Well, that's a

579
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 3: nightmare to me.

580
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 2: So here it wasn't Google it was another thing. But

581
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 2: I have a question for you, Howie, did you feel

582
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 2: disjointed from the feelings that like, did you feel disjointed

583
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 2: from your mother's feelings towards you? Did you feel like

584
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 2: she was mothering you appropriately?

585
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 3: Oh, it's a disconnect good house.

586
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: She was mothering me. I thought I was inappropriate.

587
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 4: I've always felt like I didn't fit in to the world.

588
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: I felt a different than well, and I think we

589
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: all do.

590
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 4: But I think when you have OCD and depression and

591
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 4: anxiety and things that I wasn't diagnosed with until like

592
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 4: my forties and now I'm in my late sixties.

593
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 2: You know, was she critical of you?

594
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: No?

595
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 4: Loving, like incredibly loving. But I would do horrible, horrible things.

596
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 3: I was horrible, Like what kind of horrible things?

597
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 4: Well some of it wasn't even my fault. I was

598
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 4: just always alienated. I remember, not horrible things.

599
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 1: But this is a.

600
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 4: Uh, this doesn't answer that question. But I remember even

601
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 4: from kindergarten, I was alienated. It turned out I didn't

602
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 4: get diagnosed as as colorblind till way later. But they

603
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 4: were had crayons and everybody was making sky and grass

604
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 4: and water, and I she kept saying, put the blue

605
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 4: on top, and I couldn't see the blue, and I

606
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 4: was coloring the wrong colors.

607
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 1: And she put me behind the piano. You know, old.

608
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 4: I still remember it to this day, and my mom

609
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 4: came and visited me, and the teacher told my mom

610
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 4: that I was bad.

611
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't listen.

612
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 4: It burnt out that I didn't know how to identify

613
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 4: what a blue crayon look like.

614
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: But and but so I was always from day one.

615
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 4: I remember, like other people, as soon as I left

616
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 4: the house, I was always in trouble. So I was

617
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 4: always not And then you know, I got thrown out

618
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 4: of three different schools.

619
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: I don't have a ged I lost my homework.

620
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 4: I wouldn't touch We didn't know that I had OCD

621
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 4: and I had a germophobia.

622
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: I mean I knew it, but they didn't know it.

623
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 4: So if my shoelace came undone, I didn't want to

624
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 4: touch my shoelace to retie it because it had been

625
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 4: all over the ground, so I would fall off, or

626
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 4: I would step in a mud puddle purposely so that

627
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 4: I didn't I wouldn't touch it, and i'd get in

628
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 4: trouble for rooting my shoes or i'd get my you know,

629
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 4: they'd be mad at me. They go, why didn't you

630
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 4: tie your shoes? And I go, I don't know how

631
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 4: because I didn't want to say. I didn't want to

632
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 4: touch it because it's dirty. So they go, howie you

633
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 4: do know how.

634
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: No, I don't know how. I don't know how, and

635
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 1: you know, I'd get myself into trouble.

636
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 3: You know that is sorry, But that literally is a

637
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 3: living nightmare. And I think that.

638
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: That being.

639
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 3: First of all, undiagnosed for as long as you were,

640
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 3: and for the manifestations of your mental illnesses or your

641
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 3: OCD to start at such a young age, and for

642
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,479
Speaker 3: people to not really be aware, that is a living nightmare.

643
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 3: I relate to some of that because I had similar

644
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 3: experiences where people just did not know how to react

645
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 3: to me, and therefore I always felt flawed, wrong and

646
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 3: bad because I could not keep up with my peers,

647
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 3: and it's nightmares. It's so difficult to figure yourself out.

648
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 3: And even now, still at the age of thirty five,

649
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 3: I have these moments where I'm like, holy shit, that's

650
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 3: why I did those things. And it wasn't because I

651
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 3: was a bad person or a bad kid or whatever.

652
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 3: It was truly because I was trying to circumnavigate in

653
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 3: the world and figure out a way to cope with

654
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 3: all of the things I was dealing with in my mind.

655
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 3: And I've had to forgive myself for a lot of that.

656
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: I forget, no two people are the same.

657
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 4: And if you be look to others to kind of emulate,

658
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 4: you know, and wanting, you know, wanting to be like

659
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 4: somebody the reason, you know, especially like somebody like Raven

660
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 4: in show business. You got you got to know that

661
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 4: your fans they want they want to be you, They

662
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 4: want to touch you, they want to know you, they

663
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 4: want to talk to you, they want to and and

664
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 4: I think that's just a kind of a on steroids

665
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 4: of how humanity is. We look to others to see what,

666
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 4: as we were talking about before, what they're wearing, how

667
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 4: they are. Because you, because you got, we always go

668
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 4: that's the right way to be, that's the way I feel,

669
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 4: and that gives you comfort in yourself. And whether it's

670
00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 4: as exaggerated as having a mental health issue or are

671
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 4: not being to not being able to identify how you

672
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 4: really feel and feeling alienate it we all feel alienated,

673
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 4: and we we find coping skills, and sometimes those coping

674
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 4: skills are to become an introvert. Sometimes those coping skills

675
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 4: are just anger, outward anger and that kind of hides

676
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 4: your weaknesses inside.

677
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: Or it's drug use or you know, self.

678
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 4: Medicating or whatever but all of us just need to

679
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 4: be And I'm talking as an old person again, and

680
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 4: what I've learned late in life is to be open,

681
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 4: you know, about your foibles and your and your weaknesses

682
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 4: and your fears and who you are and why, and

683
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 4: then not only for yourself. Because the first time I

684
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 4: was open about being, you know, having a mental health

685
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 4: issue and somebody approached me in the street, there was

686
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 4: no better feeling. They go, oh, thank god you mentioned this.

687
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 4: I'm I have that too, and it and it really

688
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 4: made me feel good to And that's what the person

689
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 4: said to me. And they didn't realize that how good

690
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 4: they were making me feel by not being alone in

691
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 4: whatever I was treading in, you know, in my own

692
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 4: little misery. And what I realize is we need to

693
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 4: be open about and honest and authentic to ourselves and

694
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 4: who we are and our weaknesses and our strengths and

695
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 4: also respect different you know, we don't because we always

696
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 4: think this is the way it's supposed to be and

697
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,719
Speaker 4: if it's not that way, fuck you, you know, and

698
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 4: that's not fun or it's not something to fear. And

699
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 4: that is what is happening in our world right now.

700
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 4: And that's the problem with our world is just disrespect.

701
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: We need to respect.

702
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 4: Everybody and kind of accept that. Don't accept that they're different.

703
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: You know, you're different. No two people are alike.

704
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 2: The world that we live in, though, doesn't set us

705
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 2: up for self reflection in a positive way. You know,

706
00:33:54,800 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 2: they're with industry, with marketing, and with money being made.

707
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 2: It's better to set a standard of nightmare, a living nightmare,

708
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 2: in your everyday life than it is in a dream state.

709
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 2: If everything worked perfectly, we wouldn't need medicine, we wouldn't

710
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 2: need to give you know, these people our money. And

711
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 2: I think that's one of the things that what you're

712
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 2: saying too that I agree with. You know, even if

713
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 2: I pick up a flower, my brain is going to

714
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 2: be like, yeah, but red is actually sold. A red

715
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,879
Speaker 2: flower is actually sold during Valentine's Day, and a yellow

716
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 2: flower is actually sold during this day. So if I

717
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 2: pick up this blue one, no one's told me that

718
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 2: this is the right flower. And then I create this

719
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: narrative of myself and eventually I set up this scary

720
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 2: dynamic in life where then I have to go to

721
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 2: other people who have a quote unquote better life than

722
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 2: me and say, okay, this is how I need to be.

723
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 2: And that's sad and it's true how and there's people

724
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 2: like you, myself and Miranda who are like, no, you

725
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 2: can find your happiness inside of you. But we need

726
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 2: more people saying that and showing that it's difficult.

727
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,760
Speaker 4: Well, I think the thing that is that it hurts

728
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 4: us the most is thinking.

729
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: I think thinking is overrated. I think that we do.

730
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 1: That's why they say ignorance is bliss. It really is.

731
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 4: Ignorance is when you say, I think these amazings, these

732
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 4: amazing beings that have an amazing instinct, you know. And

733
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 4: sometimes if you picked up that blue flower and you

734
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 4: liked it, you should just buy the blue flower and

735
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 4: take it. If you pick up that blue flower and

736
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 4: you start thinking, well, wait, if I have this blue flower,

737
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 4: maybe that's the wrong flower. Maybe somebody's going to look

738
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 4: at me a certain way. Maybe I should you know what,

739
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 4: So I just won't buy the flower. Now you overthought it, Yeah,

740
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 4: and you know, I think everything I've done in life,

741
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 4: when you say no, you probably say no because you

742
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 4: thought about it. Because everything comes your way. There's no

743
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 4: reason to not unless you think about it and find

744
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 4: the reason to not, you know.

745
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: And and be who you are, love who you love.

746
00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 2: But that goes into that goes into what you were

747
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 2: saying about living in the now. Right If you're living

748
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 2: in the now, you can't think because you're just accepting

749
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 2: what it is right now. Like right now, I'm having

750
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 2: a good time with you too. Do you have good dreams, Howie?

751
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, at this point, I don't have. I don't know

752
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 4: that I'm aware of my dreams anymore. I wish I

753
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 4: did have, Like I don't have bad dreams. I don't

754
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 4: have good dreams. I don't I'm trying to just get

755
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 4: enough sleep.

756
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 2: It's funny because my wife and I every single morning

757
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 2: were like, did you dream? And sometimes we say yes,

758
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 2: sometimes we say no, And we share dreams in the

759
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 2: morning and whether they're good, bad, anxiety driven or not.

760
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 2: But I love to be able to dream. I love

761
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 2: when my artistic self is heightened because of a dream

762
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 2: or even a day dream that SATs a reverie is

763
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 2: super amazing. But dreams all around you know, supposedly it's

764
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 2: the subconscious trying to speak to you. It's you regurgitating

765
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 2: something that you weren't able to say out loud in

766
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 2: public during the day helping you for your future. Dreams

767
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 2: are important, So howie, I really hope that you get

768
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 2: your dreams under control so you can have some more roll.

769
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 4: I just feel like everything and dreaming is the is

770
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 4: the fluidity of thinking, you know, And I don't want

771
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 4: to think.

772
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: I just want to be. I want to do.

773
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 4: A nightmare for me is to think I can make

774
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 4: everything a nightmare.

775
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 1: Everything can be a nightmare, you know.

776
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,919
Speaker 4: If that's the word that you're working with right now,

777
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 4: there isn't anything that can't be a nightmare. If I

778
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 4: said get in your car and come over here to

779
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 4: meet me, that could be a statement where you can

780
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,840
Speaker 4: go okay and not think about it and get in

781
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 4: your car and come over here and talk to me

782
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 4: in person instead of on zoom. The nightmare is, you know,

783
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 4: you have to get into a two ton piece of

784
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 4: steel that lie at you know, sixty or seventy miles

785
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 4: an hour, surrounded by other two tons pieces of steel

786
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 4: that are either coming at you narrowly missing you. You're

787
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 4: not in control of the That can be just a

788
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 4: trip here can be a nightmare if you overthink it.

789
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 4: And that's sometimes these overthinking locks people up, and you

790
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 4: know it stops your life and doesn't make you productive.

791
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 4: If you I say come here and you go okay,

792
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 4: and you just show up, then I'm not dreaming. I'm

793
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 4: not scared.

794
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: I just did it and I didn't all the things

795
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: that could happen.

796
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 4: Like right now, you know you feel safe because you're

797
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 4: with somebody you love and you're just doing this. You

798
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,479
Speaker 4: can also if you want to overthink it, you could

799
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 4: feel real unsafe in this moment. You can make yourself unsafe.

800
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's because everything ends up at the end of

801
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 3: the day is perception, attitude, and energy. So it's like

802
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 3: anything can be flipped on its head. But did you

803
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 3: know that if you have at least seven to nine

804
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 3: hours of sleep at night, that is the most the

805
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,720
Speaker 3: least amount of sleep you need to not have a nightmare?

806
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 2: Why because you're in less arian.

807
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 1: What do you mean the amount of nightmare or not?

808
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, the depth or the most intensity of your nightmare.

809
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 2: So there's there's multiple kinds of sleep. There's light sleep,

810
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,919
Speaker 2: there's deep sleep, and there's rim sleep. And rim sleep

811
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 2: is where you dream. Deep sleep is the kind of

812
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 2: sleep we want to be in on a regular basis

813
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 2: because that's help for most that's most RESTful. And then

814
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 2: light sleep is what you go through when you're you

815
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 2: just close your eyes and you you can still get

816
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 2: woken up by a whisper.

817
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 3: It's the recommended amount of sleep is seven to nine

818
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 3: seven to nine hours to have the least intense nightmares.

819
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 3: So if you're somebody who's a nightmare prone, they would

820
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 3: recommend that you try and get at least seven to

821
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 3: nine hours because then it'll dissipate the intensity of your nightmare.

822
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 2: But but if you have, for instance, because how you

823
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 2: are diagnosed with OCD, correct if you have an OCD

824
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 2: brain or you have a very anxiety driven brain, are

825
00:39:54,480 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 2: your nightmares slash the overthinking even deeper? Because it when

826
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 2: he's saying this to me, it's like, oh, did you

827
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 2: find a hack for your diagnosis. I'm not going to

828
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 2: believe my brain. I'm just going to live in the now.

829
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 2: And does rest help.

830
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 4: You in that When it's time for me to go

831
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 4: to sleep, I don't say, you know, this is my

832
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 4: bedtime or I'm going to go because I need seven

833
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 4: hours and I got to be upset.

834
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: I will not lie down unless I can't stand up anymore.

835
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 4: So then I fall into a deep sleep because I've

836
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 4: totally exhausted.

837
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: I need to be shot out.

838
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, I want I don't want quiet. I don't want

839
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 4: quiet time. I don't want to think. I don't want

840
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 4: my mind to be active.

841
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,240
Speaker 1: So if I do, if.

842
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 5: I say yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,

843
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 5: yes yes, and then pass out and then tomorrow yes yes, yes, yes,

844
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 5: yes yes, that's that's my schedule.

845
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 2: It kind of helps us though, because the more you

846
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 2: say yes, the more Howie Mandel we get.

847
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:55,240
Speaker 3: And I were selfish, we're letting you just like treadmill

848
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 3: yourself into the ground. But I know and you know

849
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 3: what I mean. The fact, Yeah, Howie and I had

850
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 3: a conversation kind of about this because I was like,

851
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 3: I love that you're a yes man, and he was like, yeah,

852
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 3: benefited you. That's why I'm talking to you right now

853
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:07,720
Speaker 3: because I said yes.

854
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 2: And I was, but I love that you said yes

855
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 2: on so many levels. You said yes to Saint Elsewhere,

856
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 2: which was one of the shows that I used to

857
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 2: watch on Nicked Night all the time and like absolutely

858
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 2: loved and still wish that I watched it, but it's

859
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 2: not on YouTube right now. Anyway, You said yes to

860
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 2: so many iconic roles that in, including Bobby's World and

861
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,280
Speaker 2: Grimlins that I'm just like Gizmo.

862
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 3: That's wild. You did that, Howie.

863
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 2: Fuck man dude, just childhood realness. But if he wasn't

864
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 2: like this, would we have gotten those moments?

865
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 4: Well?

866
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe not. But I have a question, how does

867
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 3: your wife feel or your family members feel about your Yes,

868
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 3: run myself into the ground type energy.

869
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: Mostly positive, but a little bit worrisome.

870
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 4: You know, listen, my wife, this attitude has worked for

871
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 4: us and me. And the one time I was going

872
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 4: to say no was for deal or no deal, because

873
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 4: in two thousand and five it wasn't. My career was

874
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 4: not in a good place, and I was thinking of

875
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 4: just pivoting and doing other things. I have other things

876
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 4: that I'm interested in that are outside of show business,

877
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 4: and my entrepreneurial spirit is just as.

878
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: Strong as my creative spirit. So I said no. When

879
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: they said do you want to do a game show?

880
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 4: I was leaving the career and they said do you

881
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 4: want to NBC would love you to do a game show, and.

882
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: I said no, No.

883
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:40,799
Speaker 4: If I'm going to leave my career, I'm not going

884
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 4: to leave as a You know, when your currency is

885
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 4: irony as a stand up comic. You know, the game

886
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 4: show host at that time was kind of not frowned upon.

887
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 4: But it's like movie stars didn't do commercials, people for

888
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 4: comedians did not do did not do game shows. The

889
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 4: last commit game show before that that was Groucho Marx,

890
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 4: who did You Bet Your Life? You know who was

891
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,439
Speaker 4: you know, a bona fide comedian. So I said no.

892
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 4: And then finally, you know, my wife said, you're an idiot,

893
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 4: just you're you're depressed, you're hanging around the house.

894
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:16,799
Speaker 1: You've got to take this.

895
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 4: And I said yes to her, and I did it,

896
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 4: and I was totally embarrassed about doing it and flew

897
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 4: away when it was going to air to someplace in

898
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 4: the Caribbean that didn't have TVs, And as it turned out,

899
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 4: it was a positive and it turned around.

900
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 1: You know.

901
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 4: The next thing that happened is Jeff Foxworthy got hired

902
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 4: to do Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?

903
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: And Bob Saggatt did Versus one hundred.

904
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 2: And Megan Markle married a prince and yes.

905
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 4: And Steve Harvey could say, you're welcome, Howie. But what

906
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 4: I'm saying is that you know, we've been married for

907
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 4: forty three years, and when people ask what makes it

908
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 4: work is that I'm not there a lot because I'm

909
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,319
Speaker 4: saying yes to everybody else. And the beauty is, as

910
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 4: much as you love me, we don't spend a lot

911
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 4: of time together, and that's.

912
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,800
Speaker 1: What makes me more lovable. When you spend time with me, yeah,

913
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:09,760
Speaker 1: I'm less lovable.

914
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 3: And very quickly, I have to say I saw this

915
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 3: TikTok because, as we mentioned earlier, your social medias are

916
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 3: off the chain, but you had like all your platforms,

917
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 3: but there was one where I think your granddaughter was

918
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,799
Speaker 3: trying to put a fake tattoo on your head and

919
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 3: you just had water dripping down your face from the

920
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 3: cotton that she used or the paper towel. Do you

921
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 3: remember this TikTok? And I just have to say that

922
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 3: that would be one of my biggest nightmares, just having

923
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 3: water just dribble down my face like that. It would

924
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 3: mess up I think it's called water boarding, you're correct,

925
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 3: And it would mess up my eyebrows and I would

926
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 3: need to spooly and it's just a mess.

927
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 2: We have the next section of the show, Howie are

928
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,719
Speaker 2: you ready for it? And then after the session will

929
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,760
Speaker 2: let you go, but this section is really important. Also,

930
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 2: on the Best podcast ever, you will be playing a

931
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 2: game with us.

932
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 3: And it's such a great little segue because he just

933
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 3: talked about game shows and how he's the host of

934
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 3: a game show and he really was the pioneer of

935
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 3: you know, famous people hosting game So let's land game.

936
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 2: All right. And the fun thing about these games is

937
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 2: that you are going to be playing for a sealed

944
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 3: You may not know this about Raven. She likes to hoard.

945
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 3: She likes to accumulate. Okay, okay, a gentle horde, a

946
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 3: touch of the hord. She likes to accumulate. She likes

947
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 3: to double order. So every gift that you may ever

948
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 3: receive from us will probably be a regift. And this,

949
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 3: in fact, was something that Raven purchased that she never opened,

950
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,600

962
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 2: you some nightmares and you have to decide if it's

963
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:36,479
Speaker 2: my nightmare or if it's Raven's nightmare. And these are real,

964
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 2: and you have to guess which of us is haunted

965
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 2: by these scenarios.

966
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:41,759
Speaker 3: These are real?

967
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 1: Okay, go ahead, go ahead, babes.

968
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 2: Cool. So the first one's gonna pop up on my

969
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:47,319
Speaker 2: pad real soon.

970
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 3: And is this Miranda or is this Raven nightmare?

971
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 2: I'm stuck in a greenhouse. It's a mess and overgrown.

972
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 2: Sitting in the middle on a bench is an old

973
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,400
Speaker 2: man and a little boy. They look like broken puppets.

974
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 2: There's also a bar. It's beautiful, and the bartender is

975
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 2: Brad Pitt. He is making a drink and I walk

976
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 2: over to him, only to realize Oprah is behind him

977
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 2: with a camera crew and she is filming a documentary.

978
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 2: Whose nightmare is it Miranda's or Raven's.

979
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 4: First of all, I don't understand that would be a

980
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 4: nightmare except for the broken puppet bar with Brad Pitt. No, bra,

981
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,400
Speaker 4: it's not whoa that's so scary in a greenhouse?

982
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 2: In a greenhouse?

983
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:31,760
Speaker 1: Is it? Is it you? Miranda?

984
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 3: False? Ah, here's the thing. This is what I wanted

985
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 3: to say. You have to think the context clues are.

986
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 3: If it's a nightmare and you think Raven's career Oprah

987
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 3: that you know, like their interactions together, Raven had some

988
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 3: interesting interviews with Oprah, then it might be more toy

989
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 3: why that was a nightmare for her?

990
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 2: Okay, one down, let's okay, we got to get put

991
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 2: him this thing. Next nightmare is coming up, Next night

992
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:00,799
Speaker 2: is on its way.

993
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:05,759
Speaker 3: Yep, we're waiting for it. Okay. This nightmare starts with

994
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 3: a yellow landline phone starts ringing, So maybe we're helping,

995
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,480
Speaker 3: like interdimensional thing going. I pick it up and a

996
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 3: voice tells me my parents are dead and to come

997
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 3: to this address or my sister will be killed. I

998
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,440
Speaker 3: show up and am taken into a room where I'm

999
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 3: told not to be sad. The people I thought were

1000
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,920
Speaker 3: actually my parents aren't, and I'm going to meet my

1001
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 3: real father. The door opens and Donald Trump walks in.

1002
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 3: I see my reflection and realize I have his exact

1003
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:44,320
Speaker 3: head of hair. Whose nightmare is that mine? Or ravens.

1004
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 1: Raven?

1005
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 2: Oh, sorry, Howie, that's Miranda.

1006
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 3: That was my nightmare.

1007
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 2: That's hardcore. You might be wondering why. I think it's

1008
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 2: because of the head of hair.

1009
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 3: It's one hundred percent of the head of hair. I

1010
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,840
Speaker 3: have such a thing about hair, and like losing hair

1011
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 3: and then having his hair. It's a lot like I

1012
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,319
Speaker 3: have it. Sometimes we have one.

1013
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:06,479
Speaker 1: That was the reason I chose Raven.

1014
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 4: Raven's been doing a lot of things with their hair lately,

1015
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:10,880
Speaker 4: so I just thought, you know, she might be thinking

1016
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 4: about hair and how things turn out and how they

1017
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 4: might look.

1018
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 1: That was why I went to you, Raven.

1019
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 2: I appreciate it, sir, I appreciate that. We'll figure that

1020
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 2: one out. We'll still give you the screwdriver if you

1021
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 2: get this one. Okay, we have one last one. We'll

1022
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 2: have one last one.

1023
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 4: To be honest with you, if I have a hammer,

1024
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 4: I would hammer in the morning.

1025
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,280
Speaker 1: I would hammer in the evening.

1026
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:34,800
Speaker 2: You want to hammer?

1027
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:37,359
Speaker 3: Would you hammer it supper time?

1028
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 1: Is that part of the song?

1029
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, hammering in the evening. I can hammer, hammer.

1030
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 2: In the morning and in the afternoon, A hammer in

1031
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 2: the evening and under Are you all on that anyway?

1032
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 3: I was seeing the Bagel Bites theme song with hammer anyway?

1033
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 5: Love it?

1034
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 2: Last one, Howie, Last one? I'm in a concrete box.

1035
00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 2: It's quickly filling up with sand. I'm stuck. Window appears,

1036
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,439
Speaker 2: but I can't do anything but look out of it.

1037
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 2: I guess I die, Miranda, or.

1038
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 4: Or that could be anybody that that sounds like one

1039
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 4: we all have being buried alive. I'm gonna go with

00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 4: the one that's afraid of being buried alive?

1042
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:31,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

1043
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 3: I'm so happy because you won this. How you won

00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:24,120
