From Corolla One Studios in Glendale, California, this is The
26
00:01:49.510 --> 00:01:54.209
Adam Corolla Show. Adam's guest today, actor Rob Morrow. And
27
00:01:54.250 --> 00:01:58.030
the news with Rudy Povich. And now, Adam Corolla.
28
00:01:58.829 --> 00:02:00.150
Rob Morrow is in.
29
00:02:00.170 --> 00:02:04.019
He's the actor, director. I don't know if he writes.
30
00:02:04.540 --> 00:02:08.639
I write. I produce. I make music. I cook a
31
00:02:08.659 --> 00:02:09.180
little bit.
32
00:02:10.219 --> 00:02:13.889
Rob has been around. For quite a while.
33
00:02:13.969 --> 00:02:17.090
I guess northern exposure is probably where people first sort
34
00:02:17.110 --> 00:02:18.659
of saw you consistently.
35
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:21.060
That kind of put me on the map. Yeah, for sure.
36
00:02:21.099 --> 00:02:21.819
That was 1990.
37
00:02:21.819 --> 00:02:25.930
It was a big hit, and it was also back when...
38
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.620
we could have big hits on network television.
39
00:02:29.780 --> 00:02:33.960
It's true. We were considered, I think, a modest hit
40
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.099
at like 18, 20 million a week. I know.
41
00:02:38.419 --> 00:02:41.599
The Oscars is not going to do anything near that
42
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:46.960
in terms of viewership. Dukes of Hazzard was 37 million
43
00:02:47.020 --> 00:02:50.199
Americans watching. Yeah.
44
00:02:50.259 --> 00:02:52.340
It's kind of interesting. I don't know if it's better
45
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:52.919
or worse.
46
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:57.280
When I was a kid, and we're roughly the same age,
47
00:02:58.259 --> 00:03:01.169
I knew every human being that was on television.
48
00:03:01.610 --> 00:03:03.370
Now I get a lot.
49
00:03:03.110 --> 00:03:06.610
Of like, oh, that's the one from Top Chef European.
50
00:03:06.729 --> 00:03:08.370
She's a huge, and I'm like, I don't know who
51
00:03:08.389 --> 00:03:10.960
that is. It's a huge kind of universe, right? There's
52
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.000
so many, how many people come up to you and say,
53
00:03:13.689 --> 00:03:15.389
Have you seen this show and you've never heard of it?
54
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:16.319
And it's a huge hit.
55
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:17.159
Right.
56
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:20.240
And there's a movie star involved. Oh, yeah. Wait, I
57
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:21.300
didn't know they were doing it.
58
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:26.860
Well, I know The Grey House, which is on Prime
59
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:27.759
right now.
60
00:03:27.780 --> 00:03:31.810
I was watching it last night. It's really good.
61
00:03:32.030 --> 00:03:35.289
And I just saw Costner's name on there as a producer.
62
00:03:35.310 --> 00:03:38.229
And I thought, oh, of course, anything historical has got
63
00:03:38.250 --> 00:03:39.229
to have his name on there.
64
00:03:39.250 --> 00:03:41.810
He loves historical stuff. And he was really instrumental in
65
00:03:41.849 --> 00:03:43.340
getting it made, him and Morgan Freeman.
66
00:03:44.659 --> 00:03:45.719
Morgan was doing the VO.
67
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:48.879
Morgan did the first and the last episode VO, but
68
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:50.159
he was involved as a producer.
69
00:03:51.900 --> 00:03:52.139
Yeah.
70
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:52.780
Yeah.
71
00:03:52.860 --> 00:03:56.699
Costner is just a constant. He loves the West, but
72
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:59.340
he loves history, but he loves stories.
73
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:01.719
Yeah. And this is a unique story. I mean, it's
74
00:04:01.780 --> 00:04:03.400
one that I've never heard. I don't know if you did,
75
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.159
but about this female spy ring in the Civil War.
76
00:04:06.219 --> 00:04:08.500
And they were, you know, it's based on facts and
77
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:10.840
it was pretty well, you know, they also have John
78
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:14.219
Sayles as one of the writers. And he's great with history.
79
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:15.379
He's a real history buff.
80
00:04:16.100 --> 00:04:20.870
Yeah, it's great because we're not going to have anyone
81
00:04:20.930 --> 00:04:23.930
sit down and read textbooks anymore. But if you can
82
00:04:23.970 --> 00:04:28.410
do accurate portrayals of this, then it can be very
83
00:04:28.550 --> 00:04:32.370
consumable and educational as well.
84
00:04:32.670 --> 00:04:34.870
And just, you know, I mean, what's amazing is that
85
00:04:34.910 --> 00:04:37.149
there's these, you know, I was just talking to someone
86
00:04:37.329 --> 00:04:41.180
about there's all these documentaries on now about, say, I
87
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.550
just saw the new Elvis documentary, and then I just
88
00:04:43.579 --> 00:04:47.810
watched last night the one on Paul McCartney. And there's
89
00:04:47.850 --> 00:04:50.009
these aspects of these times that we think we know
90
00:04:50.089 --> 00:04:53.709
everything about. And then you see a new perspective on it,
91
00:04:53.829 --> 00:04:57.050
and it's like, oh, in regards to the Elvis one,
92
00:04:57.870 --> 00:04:59.889
I thought I knew everything about Elvis, but I knew nothing,
93
00:04:59.910 --> 00:05:02.459
like who the man really was. This one seems to
94
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:04.779
capture it, at least in the positives, not with all
95
00:05:04.819 --> 00:05:05.959
the drug addled, you know.
96
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:10.639
Sadly, and it'll happen to us, or it already has,
97
00:05:12.050 --> 00:05:15.509
Everyone becomes a cartoon version of themselves for everyone who's
98
00:05:15.529 --> 00:05:16.279
consuming it.
99
00:05:16.509 --> 00:05:17.709
You know what I mean? I guess so.
100
00:05:17.930 --> 00:05:21.310
And it's kind of sad that that's our default setting. Right.
101
00:05:21.350 --> 00:05:21.970
You know what I mean?
102
00:05:22.189 --> 00:05:25.050
And it's also nonsensical.
103
00:05:25.110 --> 00:05:29.970
Like even when you disagree with somebody, you go, you
104
00:05:29.990 --> 00:05:34.060
start thinking about it and it's like. Why is Trump
105
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:37.269
doing what he's doing at the border? Because he likes pain. Right.
106
00:05:37.430 --> 00:05:40.949
It's like, well, he's doing it for other reasons that
107
00:05:40.970 --> 00:05:44.360
you disagree with. But, like, we do this thing where
108
00:05:44.379 --> 00:05:47.600
this person's... They become caricatures.
109
00:05:47.740 --> 00:05:48.379
It's reductive.
110
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:50.279
And it's really sad. Like, Elvis.
111
00:05:51.180 --> 00:05:55.300
Fat guy, died on the toilet. You know, Mama Cass Elliott,
112
00:05:55.339 --> 00:05:57.579
what'd she do? She's eating a ham sandwich.
113
00:05:57.620 --> 00:05:57.870
Right.
114
00:05:57.930 --> 00:05:59.610
And she died because she's a big fatty.
115
00:05:59.730 --> 00:06:00.490
Yeah. You know what I mean?
116
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:02.269
It's like, that's not fair to her.
117
00:06:02.310 --> 00:06:03.290
You're right.
118
00:06:03.569 --> 00:06:06.089
She's a great artist. And I'm sure people loved her
119
00:06:06.129 --> 00:06:06.790
very much.
120
00:06:06.870 --> 00:06:07.870
And we just had to do.
121
00:06:07.769 --> 00:06:12.490
This really sad thing where she died eating a ham sandwich.
122
00:06:12.569 --> 00:06:15.649
It's like, it's so, we do it with everybody.
123
00:06:16.050 --> 00:06:16.189
Yeah.
124
00:06:16.209 --> 00:06:17.230
Maybe we do it.
125
00:06:18.709 --> 00:06:22.980
Because we're narcissists. Like it makes us feel better somehow.
126
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:23.959
We're all narcissists?
127
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.699
Well, here's what I'm starting to realize.
128
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:30.790
I do say this is the narcissist age we live in,
129
00:06:30.810 --> 00:06:32.000
but I don't know if everyone's.
130
00:06:32.050 --> 00:06:36.470
Well, no, I'm not saying clinically diagnosable. But what I'm
131
00:06:36.550 --> 00:06:42.069
saying is, is like every kid starts off a narcissist.
132
00:06:42.970 --> 00:06:44.110
You know what I mean? Sure.
133
00:06:44.209 --> 00:06:47.639
Like it's sort of just. You know, that basic thing
134
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:49.959
where you go, like, here's 10 M & Ms, share
135
00:06:49.980 --> 00:06:50.879
them with your sister.
136
00:06:50.899 --> 00:06:52.540
And it's like, I'll just keep the 10.
137
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:53.120
Right, right.
138
00:06:53.139 --> 00:06:54.860
You know what I mean? Like, you don't go, here's five,
139
00:06:54.980 --> 00:06:55.639
I'll take five.
140
00:06:55.699 --> 00:06:55.939
Right.
141
00:06:55.980 --> 00:06:57.259
We have to kind of train you out of that.
142
00:06:57.279 --> 00:06:59.199
We have to learn to be socialized is what you're saying.
143
00:06:59.259 --> 00:07:02.680
Yeah, and we have to sort of learn to.
144
00:07:02.939 --> 00:07:06.279
Well, you found a wallet on the ground. Your impulse
145
00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:08.060
is to take the 50 bucks out of it and
146
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:09.220
throw it in the dumpster.
147
00:07:09.259 --> 00:07:10.790
But what if that was your wallet?
148
00:07:10.850 --> 00:07:11.019
Right.
149
00:07:11.050 --> 00:07:13.430
Wouldn't you want the person to do the right thing?
150
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:13.550
Right.
151
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:14.430
You know, that kind of thing.
152
00:07:14.470 --> 00:07:16.709
And so that takes... A little training.
153
00:07:17.189 --> 00:07:20.540
Right. No, like I distinctly remember making a decision when
154
00:07:20.620 --> 00:07:23.160
I was, I don't know, 20 or something that if
155
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:25.420
I drop something, you know, if you're walking on the
156
00:07:25.459 --> 00:07:27.459
street and you're eating something, the wrapper and something falls
157
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:29.199
on the street and you just keep going. But I
158
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:30.680
remember thinking, no, I'm never going to do that. I'm
159
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:32.259
always going to pick it up. And so now wherever
160
00:07:32.339 --> 00:07:34.300
I am, like I pick up the thing that I did,
161
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:36.980
you know, because that's maybe that was the beginning. But
162
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:39.060
I never got over being a narcissist, so it didn't
163
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:39.600
really help me.
164
00:07:39.939 --> 00:07:43.079
Well, listen, everybody....
165
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:47.579
No one is grossed out by their own spit. But
166
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.399
you're disgusted if someone spits on your face. Yes.
167
00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:52.480
That's their spit that they don't mind.
168
00:07:52.540 --> 00:07:52.839
Right.
169
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:55.750
So we're all kind of wired to like our own spit.
170
00:07:55.870 --> 00:07:56.350
Right.
171
00:07:56.699 --> 00:07:57.850
And that's fine.
172
00:07:57.899 --> 00:08:00.750
Take care of yourself. Take care of your family. Look
173
00:08:00.889 --> 00:08:03.029
out for your kids. That kind of thing.
174
00:08:03.050 --> 00:08:03.269
Sure.
175
00:08:03.310 --> 00:08:06.649
That's fine. It's more the part when it starts getting
176
00:08:06.829 --> 00:08:11.230
applied to society. That's the part that we're sort of
177
00:08:11.410 --> 00:08:12.189
entering now.
178
00:08:12.569 --> 00:08:17.060
Right, and that's where you're saying that the narcissism extends further, that.
179
00:08:17.769 --> 00:08:20.769
I think it's a thing that was supposed to be
180
00:08:21.110 --> 00:08:23.769
tamped down and sort of kept in check.
181
00:08:23.930 --> 00:08:24.230
Right.
182
00:08:24.470 --> 00:08:27.110
And we've decided that everyone's just got to do their
183
00:08:27.170 --> 00:08:28.000
own thing now.
184
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:28.439
Right.
185
00:08:28.449 --> 00:08:30.019
And there's no more judgment going on.
186
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:30.459
Right.
187
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:32.919
So now people wear pajamas to the airport.
188
00:08:33.179 --> 00:08:33.539
Right.
189
00:08:33.820 --> 00:08:37.100
Because everyone always wanted to wear pajamas to the airport
190
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:40.039
because it was more comfortable, but they were dissuaded from
191
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:44.029
doing it because society sort of said, hey, No, no.
192
00:08:44.129 --> 00:08:46.429
It's like that Warhol thing was everyone's going to be
193
00:08:46.450 --> 00:08:48.889
famous for 15 minutes. And then I updated that to
194
00:08:48.909 --> 00:08:50.909
be everyone's going to be a director for 15 minutes.
195
00:08:50.950 --> 00:08:52.710
And then I updated that to everyone's going to have
196
00:08:52.730 --> 00:08:56.049
their own network for 15 minutes.
197
00:08:56.070 --> 00:09:01.139
It is an interesting time we're living in where, you know,
198
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:04.980
back to northern exposure, the moderate hit at 18 million
199
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:06.539
viewers a week.
200
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:10.190
By the way, now on Amazon Prime as well, and
201
00:09:10.629 --> 00:09:14.210
it's finding a whole new generation of fans, which is
202
00:09:14.250 --> 00:09:18.490
so interesting. There's something weirdly not dated about it. It
203
00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:20.970
doesn't feel dated when you watch that show, and I
204
00:09:21.029 --> 00:09:23.480
can't quite put my finger on what that is, except
205
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:27.659
the themes tend to be universal, you know, and the
206
00:09:28.779 --> 00:09:31.019
visuals are, you know, it's like you and I could
207
00:09:31.059 --> 00:09:33.679
walk down the street right now and pick up trucks
208
00:09:33.740 --> 00:09:34.919
and jeans, you know.
209
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:35.259
Right.
210
00:09:35.350 --> 00:09:36.269
And, you know.
211
00:09:36.669 --> 00:09:41.659
Well, you know, my kids watched The Office ten years
212
00:09:41.740 --> 00:09:44.519
after it was off the air. Friends ten years after
213
00:09:44.539 --> 00:09:46.860
it was off the air. I watched I Love Lucy.
214
00:09:46.940 --> 00:09:47.340
Forever.
215
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:50.019
You know, I would just watch whatever was on.
216
00:09:50.100 --> 00:09:53.769
And, like, I knew I Love Lucy was dated, but
217
00:09:53.850 --> 00:09:57.250
it was funny, and I didn't mind, and there was
218
00:09:57.269 --> 00:09:58.090
nothing else on.
219
00:09:58.169 --> 00:09:59.929
And, you know, I think historically.
220
00:10:00.980 --> 00:10:10.149
and it's true some shows– are better with, not better
221
00:10:10.169 --> 00:10:12.970
with age, but the date, they don't feel dated.
222
00:10:13.210 --> 00:10:15.190
Right, like you watch Miami Vice now, it's kind of
223
00:10:15.210 --> 00:10:18.799
hard to watch, right? Nothing against any of those people.
224
00:10:18.820 --> 00:10:19.860
No, everything against.
225
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.399
I literally, now Andrew, you got to find it because
226
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:31.139
I was going to interview Ted Nugent in Texas several,
227
00:10:31.419 --> 00:10:36.120
a few weeks ago. And on the way in, I
228
00:10:36.129 --> 00:10:39.700
was driving in, and the person I was driving with said,
229
00:10:40.899 --> 00:10:42.480
you saw him on Miami.
230
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:42.980
Vice, right?
231
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:47.149
And I was like, no, I wasn't. My kind of thing,
232
00:10:47.289 --> 00:10:50.090
even as a younger person, is I... I kind of
233
00:10:50.110 --> 00:10:53.929
looked at Miami Vice as kind of cheeseball even back then. Like,
234
00:10:54.210 --> 00:10:57.389
you can't find pictures of me wearing stonewashed denim and
235
00:10:57.429 --> 00:10:58.549
with long hair or anything.
236
00:10:58.590 --> 00:10:59.289
Because I was.
237
00:10:59.870 --> 00:11:04.149
My only gift is being able to spot out lame
238
00:11:04.250 --> 00:11:05.870
shit in real time.
239
00:11:06.110 --> 00:11:06.309
Right.
240
00:11:06.470 --> 00:11:09.809
Like, history's not going to be kind to this look
241
00:11:09.830 --> 00:11:11.629
or this vibe or whatever it is.
242
00:11:11.669 --> 00:11:11.850
And so.
243
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:16.039
I was from North Hollywood, California. The Miami Vice thing
244
00:11:16.059 --> 00:11:17.240
seemed like bullshit to me.
245
00:11:17.259 --> 00:11:19.500
Yeah. I just wanted to be on it, so, because
246
00:11:19.559 --> 00:11:21.080
everyone in my, you know, I was in the 80s
247
00:11:21.100 --> 00:11:23.809
in New York, and we all were getting flown to,
248
00:11:23.850 --> 00:11:25.870
not only was it a gig on TV, but you
249
00:11:25.889 --> 00:11:28.289
get flown to Florida for a week. Oh, my God.
250
00:11:28.429 --> 00:11:28.769
You know.
251
00:11:28.950 --> 00:11:31.950
But I was, so, I never really watched it, but
252
00:11:32.009 --> 00:11:34.070
I wasn't an actor, so I didn't, you know, you
253
00:11:34.090 --> 00:11:37.830
had a little more, your thoughts, your aspirations.
254
00:11:37.330 --> 00:11:38.789
Were more practical than mine.
255
00:11:38.809 --> 00:11:40.970
Mine was like, this is a goofball TV show people
256
00:11:40.990 --> 00:11:42.120
will make fun of in a few years.
257
00:11:42.129 --> 00:11:42.409
Yeah.
258
00:11:43.019 --> 00:11:48.580
But when I was going to interview Ted Nugent, somebody
259
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.500
explained to me, did you see his arc on Miami Vice?
260
00:11:52.570 --> 00:11:55.210
And I said, no, I absolutely didn't. And they said,
261
00:11:55.250 --> 00:11:56.570
you better watch it on your.
262
00:11:56.529 --> 00:11:58.490
Phone right now. So it was more than one episode.
263
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:02.799
It was, I think he starred, it's hard for me
264
00:12:02.860 --> 00:12:04.779
to tell if it was more than one episode, but
265
00:12:04.820 --> 00:12:07.129
he played the heavy, and it was awesome.
266
00:12:07.169 --> 00:12:09.370
Right. Because Ted can't act. Yeah, but he looks like
267
00:12:09.389 --> 00:12:10.409
a good heavy. Oh, yeah.
268
00:12:10.649 --> 00:12:12.429
Lots of hair. I'll play the clips.
269
00:12:17.129 --> 00:12:17.500
Charlie.
270
00:12:17.620 --> 00:12:18.399
Even the music.
271
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:24.659
Ted Nugent. This is the best part. Look at the graphics.
272
00:12:25.610 --> 00:12:26.649
The pastel graphics.
273
00:12:26.750 --> 00:12:28.950
Oh, it's all great. The music is great. All right,
274
00:12:28.990 --> 00:12:34.169
Don Johnson is with his woman. Ted's beating up Don Johnson.
275
00:12:36.460 --> 00:12:40.539
Come on. Come on, Ted.
276
00:12:41.139 --> 00:12:48.620
Ah, the stomach, the gut punch. Get the hell out of.
277
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:50.320
Here.
278
00:12:50.379 --> 00:12:54.809
He's got to shoot him with a crossbow. I love
279
00:12:54.830 --> 00:12:56.090
the decor. I love the music.
280
00:12:56.129 --> 00:12:58.529
But you know what's interesting is the lighting is kind
281
00:12:58.570 --> 00:13:01.409
of really good. I mean, that's not like, that's better
282
00:13:01.450 --> 00:13:02.049
than TV.
283
00:13:02.350 --> 00:13:04.269
You see the hair come out from under the fedora?
284
00:13:04.529 --> 00:13:09.029
Now, here's Ted. Here's Ted the thespian. There's dialogue here.
285
00:13:11.929 --> 00:13:15.629
By the way, good-looking chicks just sat around and thought
286
00:13:15.700 --> 00:13:17.120
about stuff back then, you know?
287
00:13:17.139 --> 00:13:22.990
Okay. That's good lighting, I'm here to tell you, Adam.
288
00:13:23.129 --> 00:13:25.049
That's not bad lighting.
289
00:13:25.090 --> 00:13:29.529
Whoever gaffed that did a great job.
290
00:13:29.649 --> 00:13:36.789
Ted just smacked his lady friend. Shirt off, hair flowing.
291
00:13:36.950 --> 00:13:46.700
Definitely Miami. How's the eye?
292
00:13:46.750 --> 00:13:47.710
Hardly shows now.
293
00:13:49.169 --> 00:13:53.309
That's back when women did not complain about getting beaten
294
00:13:53.350 --> 00:13:54.250
by Ted Nugent.
295
00:13:55.769 --> 00:13:57.809
No, he wouldn't.
296
00:13:58.789 --> 00:13:59.690
He didn't make it with him.
297
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:12.879
Old fashioned. Don't shoot him in the face, okay?
298
00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:24.519
Sure. All right. That's new. Oh, wait.
299
00:14:24.620 --> 00:14:25.259
It's so funny.
300
00:14:25.320 --> 00:14:28.200
I think this is the first scene I saw was
301
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:30.879
the one that backed five seconds.
302
00:14:30.899 --> 00:14:32.539
He was on multiple episodes, did you say?
303
00:14:32.779 --> 00:14:33.279
I don't.
304
00:14:33.539 --> 00:14:36.659
I'm watching it on my phone driving through Texas.
305
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:37.019
Right.
306
00:14:37.139 --> 00:14:38.539
Trying to figure out what's going on.
307
00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:38.919
Right.
308
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:42.120
He's changing outfits. There's a lot of storyline going on.
309
00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:43.059
There's a lot of that clothes.
310
00:14:43.259 --> 00:14:45.789
But if you do this one, the first one I
311
00:14:45.830 --> 00:14:46.450
saw was this.
312
00:14:46.899 --> 00:14:47.259
Burnett.
313
00:14:50.460 --> 00:14:52.919
So, we meet again.
314
00:14:53.580 --> 00:14:55.159
I watch that and I'm like, I don't believe him.
315
00:14:56.470 --> 00:14:59.750
Ted Nugent said, Burnett, we meet again. I was like,
316
00:14:59.789 --> 00:15:01.870
I don't believe him as an actor. Yeah, I'm not sure.
317
00:15:02.649 --> 00:15:05.409
But Don Johnson, man, that guy still looks amazing. You
318
00:15:05.429 --> 00:15:09.110
see him around town? Oh, yeah. He looks amazing. Yeah.
319
00:15:10.970 --> 00:15:13.169
And he was a big party boy, so he figured
320
00:15:13.210 --> 00:15:13.730
something out.
321
00:15:14.210 --> 00:15:14.409
Yeah.
322
00:15:14.899 --> 00:15:18.179
So, did you ever get on Miami Vice?
323
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:19.580
Never got on it, but all my friends did.
324
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:20.279
Really?
325
00:15:20.419 --> 00:15:22.100
I must audition for it.
326
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:23.299
Who'd you come up with?
327
00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:28.269
Well, in terms of who did this show, but... You know,
328
00:15:28.610 --> 00:15:34.269
Fisher Stevens and Matthew Broderick and Craig Sheffer.
329
00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:39.879
Are these like sort of New York actor guys you
330
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:40.600
came up with?
331
00:15:40.659 --> 00:15:42.220
Yeah, yeah. We were all in the theater.
332
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:42.899
Right.
333
00:15:42.940 --> 00:15:45.259
And we even started a theater company that actually is
334
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:48.779
still around 40 years later. And that was kind of
335
00:15:48.820 --> 00:15:51.379
our home and place to have some kind of autonomy.
336
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:53.720
And big parties.
337
00:15:53.779 --> 00:15:55.720
We were known as, we were actually a known, like
338
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:57.779
Vanity Fair covered us and stuff. We were like the
339
00:15:57.919 --> 00:16:00.840
it company. And we would throw these parties that would be,
340
00:16:01.100 --> 00:16:05.019
after every show, when it closed, we would have these
341
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:08.200
kind of mushroom parties and just get wasted and just
342
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:12.610
have these great dance parties. And it was a lot
343
00:16:12.620 --> 00:16:14.090
of fun. Yeah.
344
00:16:14.659 --> 00:16:18.309
It was, I don't know, I don't know if that's,
345
00:16:18.690 --> 00:16:21.529
what to call it, innocent time or something, but people
346
00:16:21.570 --> 00:16:22.350
could just sort.
347
00:16:22.210 --> 00:16:24.879
Of do what they wanted. Compared to now, right? You
348
00:16:24.899 --> 00:16:27.120
wouldn't have to watch your back. Like now, if those
349
00:16:27.179 --> 00:16:29.120
parties were, if you were throwing those parties now, people
350
00:16:29.139 --> 00:16:31.480
would be filming, you know, shooting with their phones.
351
00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:33.340
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
352
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:35.080
There was a kind of innocence for sure.
353
00:16:35.100 --> 00:16:40.139
Yeah, it was sort of what And basically, it's what
354
00:16:40.259 --> 00:16:42.840
smoking was. Like, if you want to smoke a cigarette
355
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:45.220
at a mushroom party, you would just light a cigarette.
356
00:16:45.259 --> 00:16:45.879
You didn't go.
357
00:16:46.259 --> 00:16:49.100
Now, you've got to go hide behind the dumpster in
358
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:51.789
the alley, smoke half a cigarette, put it out, hit
359
00:16:51.830 --> 00:16:54.549
a little panaca, and come back into the party.
360
00:16:54.669 --> 00:16:57.090
It's like, people just kind of... If you felt like smoking,
361
00:16:57.110 --> 00:16:57.950
you would smoke.
362
00:16:58.029 --> 00:16:58.710
And, like.
363
00:16:59.149 --> 00:17:02.860
It's not like people who didn't smoke liked secondhand smoke.
364
00:17:02.940 --> 00:17:04.700
It was just, yeah, they were at a party.
365
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:05.299
Right.
366
00:17:05.400 --> 00:17:05.960
People smoke.
367
00:17:06.259 --> 00:17:06.480
Right.
368
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:08.000
You don't like it, just go in the kitchen.
369
00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:11.920
Restaurants, you know, just rooms where you'd be inhaling secondhand
370
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:13.299
smoke and not even thinking about it.
371
00:17:13.740 --> 00:17:14.400
No, it was.
372
00:17:15.329 --> 00:17:15.910
Did you smoke?
373
00:17:16.950 --> 00:17:18.109
I smoked like.
374
00:17:20.470 --> 00:17:23.789
I was a, if I was drinking, I would smoke guy.
375
00:17:23.809 --> 00:17:27.779
I wish I could be someone like that. I was
376
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:30.039
a two-pack-a-day guy by the time I gave it up.
377
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:30.920
Really?
378
00:17:31.220 --> 00:17:34.000
I'm so envious of people that can just have a
379
00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:35.579
couple cigarettes with a drink.
380
00:17:35.900 --> 00:17:40.279
It's a wiring that I've realized is very unique, and
381
00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:44.839
it's also a wiring that many people don't have, which
382
00:17:44.859 --> 00:17:48.910
is redundant. But it's also a thing where doctors will
383
00:17:48.950 --> 00:17:49.730
never believe you.
384
00:17:50.170 --> 00:17:50.549
Right.
385
00:17:50.750 --> 00:17:52.690
So if you go... They go, do you smoke?
386
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:54.539
I go, ah, you know, on the weekend if I'm
387
00:17:54.579 --> 00:17:55.380
having a cocktail.
388
00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:57.859
They'll go, okay, you're a smoker. Right.
389
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:00.000
And I go, no, no, I'm not telling you. And
390
00:18:00.019 --> 00:18:03.619
they go, no, no, nobody's– they don't say you're a liar.
391
00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.099
What they're saying is this is bullshit.
392
00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:06.359
Right.
393
00:18:06.380 --> 00:18:08.619
This guy smoked before he came to this office. He's
394
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:10.440
going to have a cigarette when he leaves. Like they
395
00:18:10.460 --> 00:18:15.730
don't– I've never really– found a person who smoked like
396
00:18:15.849 --> 00:18:18.789
I smoked, which is just sort of catch-as-catch-can.
397
00:18:18.809 --> 00:18:20.349
There's a lot of you out there. I'm so jealous.
398
00:18:20.369 --> 00:18:20.710
Are there?
399
00:18:20.809 --> 00:18:21.339
Oh, yeah.
400
00:18:21.450 --> 00:18:22.920
Oh, I never run into those people.
401
00:18:22.940 --> 00:18:24.599
I think my wife can, you know.
402
00:18:24.640 --> 00:18:26.099
Oh, I do think women.
403
00:18:26.140 --> 00:18:27.539
At a party, they'll have a cigarette.
404
00:18:27.579 --> 00:18:31.730
Women have the weird chip cigarette with a glass of
405
00:18:31.789 --> 00:18:33.630
wine thing that guys don't.
406
00:18:33.450 --> 00:18:34.230
Seem to have.
407
00:18:34.250 --> 00:18:35.049
I want that.
408
00:18:35.170 --> 00:18:35.569
Yeah.
409
00:18:36.049 --> 00:18:37.150
No, I mean, it is a.
410
00:18:37.250 --> 00:18:39.910
Thing, and I don't know how you feel, but I
411
00:18:39.950 --> 00:18:43.150
feel the same way about drinking as I do about smoking,
412
00:18:43.210 --> 00:18:45.569
which is like, I like it, and I don't want
413
00:18:45.609 --> 00:18:48.990
it to ever get to a point where we go, hey, man,
414
00:18:49.509 --> 00:18:50.009
this is a problem.
415
00:18:50.029 --> 00:18:52.390
I stopped drinking. You've got to stop. I stopped, and
416
00:18:52.490 --> 00:18:54.769
I like not drinking. But I was never a big drinker,
417
00:18:55.210 --> 00:18:57.950
but I was a big stoner. Like, that was my thing.
418
00:18:58.730 --> 00:19:00.950
I gave up both. And I like it. Like, I
419
00:19:02.029 --> 00:19:03.490
didn't have to. It wasn't like I got in trouble
420
00:19:03.509 --> 00:19:05.630
or anything. So I made the choice, and I could
421
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:10.059
at any point not or have. But I just feel better.
422
00:19:10.220 --> 00:19:10.920
I just feel better.
423
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:13.640
Without the pot, without the booze.
424
00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:16.240
Yeah. Like, when I wake up, I feel like I'm
425
00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:19.660
getting– I just feel clearer, clearer-headed. You know, I spent
426
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:23.269
so many years doing all that stuff. I mean, 30
427
00:19:23.269 --> 00:19:25.589
years at least was– you know, that was a regular
428
00:19:25.630 --> 00:19:27.890
thing for me. Mm-hmm. Like all of a sudden it's
429
00:19:27.910 --> 00:19:30.130
like a new person. It's like, oh, I'm this guy.
430
00:19:31.029 --> 00:19:34.230
I'm not like a stone guy or a drinking guy.
431
00:19:35.859 --> 00:19:37.380
But it was fun. But I enjoyed it. Like I
432
00:19:37.779 --> 00:19:40.549
don't regret it and I don't begrudge anyone doing it.
433
00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:47.569
Yeah, the actor, young actor starting off parties are just
434
00:19:48.329 --> 00:19:50.799
some of the best memories I've had. like with the
435
00:19:50.920 --> 00:19:54.579
improv troupe after the show raps or whatever going over
436
00:19:54.599 --> 00:19:58.460
to mark dropman's apartment everyone just having a good time
437
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:02.309
just sort of on a budget but just sort of
438
00:20:02.990 --> 00:20:06.250
everything was everyone was funny you know everyone's had a
439
00:20:06.309 --> 00:20:08.230
great personality.
440
00:20:07.609 --> 00:20:12.990
Yeah Yeah, it's a great time. But I guess you
441
00:20:13.009 --> 00:20:14.869
grow out of it, right? I mean, you see the
442
00:20:14.910 --> 00:20:17.750
people that are still trying to do it, and it's sad.
443
00:20:17.829 --> 00:20:24.480
Well, it's interesting when you're at a phase where everything
444
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:29.720
is sort of a possibility versus been there, done that.
445
00:20:30.259 --> 00:20:32.740
And it's also a kind of a great distinction. It's
446
00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:35.519
everything's a possibility. That's that's at that time.
447
00:20:36.259 --> 00:20:36.740
Right.
448
00:20:37.019 --> 00:20:40.420
Good and bad. But but up for grabs. You know,
449
00:20:40.460 --> 00:20:42.980
what's the future hold? You know, like a lot of that.
450
00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:47.509
It's a different mindset. Also versus a kind of a
451
00:20:48.410 --> 00:20:51.450
protect the lead kind of thing where you're sort of
452
00:20:51.529 --> 00:20:54.650
trying to hang on to what you have or what
453
00:20:54.710 --> 00:20:57.210
you had. Versus what's next.
454
00:20:57.430 --> 00:20:58.730
Right. You know what I mean? Right.
455
00:20:58.869 --> 00:21:02.650
And it was all so new and all so full
456
00:21:02.690 --> 00:21:04.759
of potential.
457
00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:05.579
Yeah.
458
00:21:05.660 --> 00:21:09.299
And you'd hear little bits and pieces of so-and-so got
459
00:21:09.339 --> 00:21:11.480
a job writing on Animaniacs.
460
00:21:11.819 --> 00:21:12.099
Right.
461
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:14.359
He's making $ 2, 200 a week.
462
00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:14.880
Right.
463
00:21:15.019 --> 00:21:15.380
Whoa.
464
00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:16.000
Yeah.
465
00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:17.900
You know, like that kind of stuff. And it was like,
466
00:21:18.390 --> 00:21:19.509
oh my God, potential.
467
00:21:19.789 --> 00:21:22.170
But that gave you, at least for me anyway, that
468
00:21:22.230 --> 00:21:25.029
gave me, like when my friends, when Fisher- you know,
469
00:21:25.069 --> 00:21:26.940
got his first movie and I was right there. I
470
00:21:26.940 --> 00:21:29.279
was like, oh man, cause I didn't come from showbiz.
471
00:21:29.380 --> 00:21:31.940
So I didn't, you know, it wasn't like easy getting
472
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.160
into it. And when, when a friend of mine, a
473
00:21:34.220 --> 00:21:37.029
pal broke in with a movie, you're just like, oh
474
00:21:37.049 --> 00:21:39.150
my God, it's possible. You can do this. One can
475
00:21:39.190 --> 00:21:39.569
do this.
476
00:21:40.490 --> 00:21:44.910
Well, um, I mean, what's the big, what was your big,
477
00:21:45.380 --> 00:21:48.200
I know you did mother with Albert.
478
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:49.180
Brooks, one of my favorites.
479
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:51.980
Oh, yeah, man. That was like, I'll tell you. That
480
00:21:52.019 --> 00:21:53.519
had to be a thrill. I'll tell you about the
481
00:21:53.579 --> 00:21:57.589
audition for that. It was so genius because so they
482
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:01.769
call and they say, Albert is interested in you for
483
00:22:01.809 --> 00:22:06.430
this movie. And I'm like, I'm in, you know, without
484
00:22:07.329 --> 00:22:09.450
such a fan. So they said, but he wants to,
485
00:22:09.529 --> 00:22:11.279
you know, at that point I was getting offers and
486
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:14.380
only so. But he said, he needs to read. You
487
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:16.079
need to read for it. And I was like, no problem.
488
00:22:16.220 --> 00:22:18.119
When and where? So he said, they're going to fly
489
00:22:18.140 --> 00:22:19.670
you out. I was in New York. They fly me
490
00:22:19.750 --> 00:22:22.430
out here to L.A. I go to Paramount on a Sunday,
491
00:22:22.490 --> 00:22:25.150
I think it was. And Albert, I get let into
492
00:22:25.289 --> 00:22:27.490
Albert's office. He's got a little teeny office with a
493
00:22:27.690 --> 00:22:31.789
secretary outside. And nothing. It doesn't look like he spends
494
00:22:31.809 --> 00:22:33.970
a lot of time there. And I come in. I
495
00:22:34.009 --> 00:22:37.390
got my sides, the pages for the two scenes he
496
00:22:37.410 --> 00:22:37.859
wants me to.
497
00:22:38.150 --> 00:22:40.220
You were going for the role of his brother.
498
00:22:40.380 --> 00:22:44.420
His brother and mother. And Debbie Reynolds was already cast.
499
00:22:44.779 --> 00:22:47.640
And I come in, I put my sides on the
500
00:22:47.700 --> 00:22:49.980
desk in front of me and he's on the other
501
00:22:50.019 --> 00:22:51.220
side of the desk. It's just he and I, and
502
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:55.099
we're going to read together and the sides are there
503
00:22:55.140 --> 00:22:56.579
so I can see them, but I know them. And
504
00:22:56.880 --> 00:22:58.640
I say my first or second line and he goes,
505
00:22:58.740 --> 00:23:02.680
I want you to do the movie. I was like,
506
00:23:03.380 --> 00:23:05.599
all right. And that was it. And, uh, I didn't
507
00:23:05.619 --> 00:23:09.609
have to read anymore. And, um, And all I wanted
508
00:23:09.630 --> 00:23:11.789
to do was improvise with him. So every day I'd
509
00:23:11.809 --> 00:23:15.509
be like, come on, Albert, let's just fuck around. And
510
00:23:15.529 --> 00:23:17.690
as long as we got what he needed, he would
511
00:23:17.710 --> 00:23:21.869
let us play around. And he's amazing. I mean, what
512
00:23:21.910 --> 00:23:24.250
a gift that was to be able to... And he
513
00:23:24.289 --> 00:23:28.339
had the cushiest deal. He had some... It was David Geffen,
514
00:23:28.359 --> 00:23:33.609
I think, was his producer. And they got, he got like,
515
00:23:33.849 --> 00:23:37.200
you know, $ 25 million to make this movie that was
516
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:42.279
just three of us, basically. And we would shoot seven,
517
00:23:42.339 --> 00:23:44.180
eight hours a day. That would be the whole day,
518
00:23:44.339 --> 00:23:46.700
one scene, which was like, you know, to me, that
519
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.599
was just utter luxury. I was used to coming out
520
00:23:48.619 --> 00:23:52.549
of like nine pages a day. And so to get
521
00:23:52.589 --> 00:23:54.970
to go to that kind of environment was just so
522
00:23:55.049 --> 00:23:57.029
relaxed and we could do what we wanted and take
523
00:23:57.089 --> 00:24:01.410
our time. And then Albert was just a great, You know,
524
00:24:01.470 --> 00:24:04.470
he just was really, he's so funny. And improvising with
525
00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:07.740
him was such a joy.
526
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:14.220
He's, you know, he's funny, but he also makes important movies.
527
00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:14.960
Yeah.
528
00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:18.509
That really take a good look at sort of the
529
00:24:18.569 --> 00:24:19.589
human condition.
530
00:24:19.630 --> 00:24:22.390
And, you know, I. He's super smart. I mean.
531
00:24:22.430 --> 00:24:23.789
I was telling my son who's 19.
532
00:24:23.789 --> 00:24:24.769
Albert Einstein, right?
533
00:24:24.890 --> 00:24:25.430
Yeah, he is.
534
00:24:25.470 --> 00:24:27.500
That's his name. I told my son the other day,
535
00:24:27.579 --> 00:24:31.730
I go, what? watch Defending Your Life again, would you please?
536
00:24:31.750 --> 00:24:33.529
And he said, oh, I saw it with you, and
537
00:24:33.569 --> 00:24:35.329
I was like, nine. I go, I know, but now
538
00:24:35.369 --> 00:24:37.609
you're 19, and you're going to have a different perspective
539
00:24:38.450 --> 00:24:38.700
on it.
540
00:24:38.880 --> 00:24:39.700
Such a great movie.
541
00:24:40.259 --> 00:24:45.380
There's a scene, I love that movie, because it's super funny,
542
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:50.559
but it's also really smart, but it's also a pretty
543
00:24:51.259 --> 00:24:54.700
interesting perspective on how you should live your life.
544
00:24:54.829 --> 00:24:55.529
Absolutely. Absolutely.
545
00:24:55.990 --> 00:24:59.130
And the scene, I don't know why there's one scene
546
00:25:00.009 --> 00:25:02.089
that makes me laugh the hardest in that movie, and
547
00:25:02.130 --> 00:25:03.130
I can't figure it out.
548
00:25:03.230 --> 00:25:05.670
I probably talked to Albert Brooks.
549
00:25:05.490 --> 00:25:08.670
About it when I was interviewing him a million years ago. Now, Andrew,
550
00:25:08.690 --> 00:25:11.769
you've got to find it. But the scene where they
551
00:25:11.809 --> 00:25:14.710
go back to young Albert Brooks, and he gets accused
552
00:25:14.769 --> 00:25:21.339
of stealing paint back when anyone could. Right, right. Oh, no,
553
00:25:21.380 --> 00:25:23.000
when he's looking back at his life. He's looking back
554
00:25:23.140 --> 00:25:25.680
at his life. It's in the middle of the film.
555
00:25:26.869 --> 00:25:30.609
And they're going back, and they're examining his life. And
556
00:25:30.730 --> 00:25:34.109
it's really kind of an interesting thought. It's like you're
557
00:25:34.150 --> 00:25:37.950
in court, and you have a lawyer, and there's also
558
00:25:37.970 --> 00:25:40.519
a prosecutor, and we're trying to figure out what kind
559
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:41.220
of life you live.
560
00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:43.259
Well, that's what we hear, right? You're going to have
561
00:25:43.299 --> 00:25:45.619
to deal with that at your day of reckoning.
562
00:25:45.859 --> 00:25:46.640
Right, right.
563
00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:49.779
So who are you, the person that picks up the
564
00:25:49.839 --> 00:25:52.279
wrapper with Rob or leaves it on the ground?
565
00:25:52.299 --> 00:25:52.680
That's right.
566
00:25:52.700 --> 00:25:53.640
I get points for that.
567
00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:55.259
You get points. I'm building points.
568
00:25:55.680 --> 00:26:00.069
So- there's that great scene where he stole the paint,
569
00:26:00.130 --> 00:26:04.859
but the teacher, who's perfect, they're like a weird comb-over, goes, class,
570
00:26:05.339 --> 00:26:11.299
how much is the paint? And half the class goes $ 3,
571
00:26:10.460 --> 00:26:11.859
but the other half.
572
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:14.400
Goes $ 3.
573
00:26:12.140 --> 00:26:13.269
50.
574
00:26:13.269 --> 00:26:14.930
And he goes, how much are the brushes?
575
00:26:14.930 --> 00:26:16.329
$ 3.
576
00:26:14.930 --> 00:26:15.630
50.
577
00:26:15.630 --> 00:26:19.809
$ 8. And what does that combine? And then half the
578
00:26:19.849 --> 00:26:23.609
class says $ 11, and the other half says $ 11.
579
00:26:22.930 --> 00:26:23.269
50.
580
00:26:23.269 --> 00:26:26.690
And I don't know why. I love stuff in movies
581
00:26:26.710 --> 00:26:30.220
that doesn't need to be there. I don't know why
582
00:26:30.259 --> 00:26:31.460
you would even write that.
583
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.359
It's not even really... I don't remember it.
584
00:26:34.420 --> 00:26:42.000
It's not even a gag, but it's just there. It's... Well,
585
00:26:42.019 --> 00:26:43.599
he's very idiosyncratic.
586
00:26:43.640 --> 00:26:46.440
You know. He's got these ideas that sometimes that don't track,
587
00:26:46.500 --> 00:26:50.720
but they work. You know, their texture, you know, it's
588
00:26:50.759 --> 00:26:53.960
not all– everything is in gags with him. By the way,
589
00:26:54.009 --> 00:26:55.910
he wrote a novel that was really cool called 2022
590
00:26:55.910 --> 00:26:56.450
or 23.
591
00:26:56.450 --> 00:26:57.950
Yes.
592
00:26:58.210 --> 00:27:00.809
It was really interesting.
593
00:27:01.069 --> 00:27:02.109
Yes, I agree.
594
00:27:02.289 --> 00:27:06.309
So I don't know if underappreciated is how we should
595
00:27:06.349 --> 00:27:09.990
say it, but– But in a world full of, like,
596
00:27:10.230 --> 00:27:16.430
funny people, he deserves his own rest stop.
597
00:27:17.509 --> 00:27:20.150
Absolutely. With his name on it. Absolutely, yeah.
598
00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:23.220
So that had to be just a thrill.
599
00:27:23.339 --> 00:27:25.460
It was the coolest, and I hung out with him
600
00:27:25.500 --> 00:27:28.880
a bit, and I just, yeah, it was a gift.
601
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:31.579
You know, it's such a blessing to get to work
602
00:27:31.619 --> 00:27:35.450
with people like that, to spend time with them, you know. It...
603
00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:41.170
It really feels... I feel grateful for, like, hanging out
604
00:27:41.210 --> 00:27:45.190
with him or Redford or, you know, all the different...
605
00:27:45.210 --> 00:27:49.150
Even in Roland Jaffe, who directed The Grey House, is,
606
00:27:49.349 --> 00:27:50.970
you know, I don't know if you know his work,
607
00:27:51.019 --> 00:27:53.319
but he's one of the... I've worked with him three
608
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:56.279
times now. He's a master filmmaker. He made a movie
609
00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:58.980
called The Mission, and he made The Killing Fields, and... Yeah,
610
00:27:59.259 --> 00:28:02.279
he's been around. Spending time with that guy was just
611
00:28:02.319 --> 00:28:06.589
such a gift. I mean, he just... Yeah. People.
612
00:28:07.549 --> 00:28:10.190
Then also, you know, Robert Redford, you know, these people
613
00:28:10.230 --> 00:28:14.339
aren't around forever. You know, it's really incredible that you
614
00:28:14.380 --> 00:28:19.839
got to spend time with people like that. I mean,
615
00:28:19.900 --> 00:28:22.400
especially as you get older, you just start thinking about,
616
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:26.200
you know, sometimes, I don't know why, but someone will go, hey,
617
00:28:26.259 --> 00:28:29.440
Norm MacDonald, this or that. I'm like, yeah, he's gone.
618
00:28:29.609 --> 00:28:31.890
But I got to hang out with him and do
619
00:28:31.950 --> 00:28:35.799
stuff with him. And it's even wilder when you. like
620
00:28:35.839 --> 00:28:38.180
for someone like Redford, for me, you know, I grew
621
00:28:38.299 --> 00:28:40.420
up watching him before I had any thought I'd be
622
00:28:40.460 --> 00:28:42.349
doing this. And then all of a sudden I'm going
623
00:28:42.369 --> 00:28:45.029
to his house, you know, and it's like, and then
624
00:28:45.049 --> 00:28:47.569
I'm working with him and then I'm, you know, he
625
00:28:47.630 --> 00:28:49.539
was a bit of a mentor for a while for me. And,
626
00:28:49.710 --> 00:28:53.009
you know, that, that, that, I always think it's a
627
00:28:53.049 --> 00:28:56.150
kind of like a synchronicity of something, you know, that, like,
628
00:28:57.190 --> 00:28:59.880
that kid in me knew something when I was watching,
629
00:28:59.900 --> 00:29:02.619
because I was so intrigued by him, right? But somewhere
630
00:29:02.700 --> 00:29:06.170
I knew, you know, if you look at, time being
631
00:29:06.210 --> 00:29:08.450
not linear and all that kind of nonsense, you know,
632
00:29:09.130 --> 00:29:11.819
somewhere I knew something and, and it was true that
633
00:29:11.859 --> 00:29:13.599
I was going to be involved with this guy.
634
00:29:14.859 --> 00:29:16.920
Yeah. I, I know him as a good dude.
635
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:18.380
I don't know him personally.
636
00:29:18.660 --> 00:29:22.660
There is a kind of a, a yardstick you can
637
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:26.400
kind of measure people by, which is when you make
638
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:29.559
a documentary, if they agree to be in it, they're
639
00:29:29.579 --> 00:29:30.440
always cool.
640
00:29:31.140 --> 00:29:33.299
If they disagree, then they're kind of douchey.
641
00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:34.480
Wait, wait, I'm lost. What?
642
00:29:34.789 --> 00:29:36.750
I made a documentary about Paul Newman.
643
00:29:37.369 --> 00:29:37.829
Oh, you did?
644
00:29:38.049 --> 00:29:38.930
Yeah, I did.
645
00:29:38.970 --> 00:29:39.390
Which one?
646
00:29:41.380 --> 00:29:46.000
I made it about his racing life, his automobile racing life.
647
00:29:46.019 --> 00:29:46.539
What's it called?
648
00:29:46.980 --> 00:29:50.079
It's called Winning the Racing Life of Paul Newman. It's
649
00:29:50.500 --> 00:29:54.769
based somewhat on a book that I'd received.
650
00:29:54.809 --> 00:29:57.210
How cool. I didn't know that. I love Paul Newman.
651
00:29:57.750 --> 00:30:00.809
Yeah, we'll find the trailer for it at some point.
652
00:30:01.130 --> 00:30:05.819
But it's a good doc, but it's really only Paul Newman,
653
00:30:05.839 --> 00:30:07.039
the race car driver.
654
00:30:07.099 --> 00:30:08.099
And you interviewed Bob.
655
00:30:09.160 --> 00:30:13.720
Yeah, and many, many people in his life. It's a
656
00:30:13.779 --> 00:30:16.980
sort of a doc that has Robert Redford and Mario
657
00:30:17.019 --> 00:30:20.059
Andretti in it, which I don't know. if those guys
658
00:30:20.140 --> 00:30:23.089
share docks too often because it's a different group, but
659
00:30:23.569 --> 00:30:25.990
you have to talk to Robert Redford and you have
660
00:30:26.009 --> 00:30:27.359
to talk to Mario Andretti.
661
00:30:27.460 --> 00:30:29.720
Well, Rob, Bob liked his Porsches. I remember we were staying,
662
00:30:29.740 --> 00:30:31.559
Fisher and I actually were staying in a house he
663
00:30:31.599 --> 00:30:35.529
lent us in, um, Outside of Santa Fe. And he
664
00:30:35.589 --> 00:30:41.200
had this gray, beautiful, vintage Porsche in the garage. Oh.
665
00:30:41.220 --> 00:30:42.539
But he didn't give us the keys to that.
666
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:43.220
It was an old one.
667
00:30:43.440 --> 00:30:46.160
Yeah. It was a 904, I think. It was like
668
00:30:46.200 --> 00:30:46.839
a race car.
669
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:47.140
Yeah.
670
00:30:47.339 --> 00:30:50.519
Yes. It was beautiful. Very expensive, by the way, now.
671
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:51.039
Right.
672
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:52.880
But he never left us the key. He left us
673
00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:54.809
the house, but not the keys to it. So all
674
00:30:54.829 --> 00:30:56.970
week we were looking around, where's the key to the garage?
675
00:30:56.990 --> 00:30:59.009
Because we weren't going to drive it, but we wanted
676
00:30:59.029 --> 00:31:03.230
to just sit in it. I'll play the trailer for it.
677
00:31:03.369 --> 00:31:05.589
Do you have the clip with Bob?
678
00:31:05.849 --> 00:31:06.029
No.
679
00:31:06.710 --> 00:31:07.690
It may be in the trailer.
680
00:31:08.529 --> 00:31:11.190
Yeah, I would think. When you get out to that track,
681
00:31:11.230 --> 00:31:12.470
you sit down in that car.
682
00:31:13.430 --> 00:31:16.930
Whatever it is that's roiling around your head, it just
683
00:31:17.009 --> 00:31:18.289
goes right out the window.
684
00:31:22.589 --> 00:31:24.990
You could tell that this was a big, big thing
685
00:31:25.029 --> 00:31:25.549
in his life.
686
00:31:25.789 --> 00:31:28.470
He'd made the movie winning and kind of fallen in
687
00:31:28.509 --> 00:31:29.269
love with racing.
688
00:31:29.829 --> 00:31:31.509
He was 48 years old when he started.
689
00:31:32.069 --> 00:31:34.250
The only thing that I ever found any grace in
690
00:31:34.269 --> 00:31:35.170
was an automobile.
691
00:31:35.269 --> 00:31:38.259
He wanted to be looked at as a driver, not
692
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:39.559
as an Academy Award winner.
693
00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:42.339
He wasn't so much divided between the two.
694
00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:44.759
It was that film would come second to racing.
695
00:31:44.779 --> 00:31:53.559
There he is. He was terrible at first. The studios
696
00:31:53.779 --> 00:31:55.420
didn't want him doing that.
697
00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:58.180
I mean, they think, oh, Jesus, what is he doing
698
00:31:58.200 --> 00:31:58.740
in a race car?
699
00:31:58.799 --> 00:31:59.599
Is he crazy?
700
00:31:59.619 --> 00:32:03.349
The only way that you're ever going to win a race.
701
00:32:03.190 --> 00:32:04.990
Is just to be right on the edge of it
702
00:32:05.069 --> 00:32:05.670
all the time.
703
00:32:07.269 --> 00:32:09.250
His whole career looked as though it were going to
704
00:32:09.309 --> 00:32:11.269
go down the drain because all he.
705
00:32:11.190 --> 00:32:14.609
Wanted to do was race. I think everybody wanted him
706
00:32:14.650 --> 00:32:16.410
to quit racing except him.
707
00:32:16.609 --> 00:32:19.549
They'll have to strap me down before they keep me
708
00:32:19.630 --> 00:32:20.730
out of these things.
709
00:32:20.750 --> 00:32:24.930
There was a tendency to write him off as an actor.
710
00:32:25.329 --> 00:32:27.410
It's very, very difficult with celebrities.
711
00:32:27.549 --> 00:32:29.970
They're used to being a winner, and in racing, you
712
00:32:29.990 --> 00:32:32.730
gotta pay your dues. You're always competing with yourself. You're
713
00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:34.920
trying to bring a little extra to your performance.
714
00:32:35.630 --> 00:32:38.000
I think he liked the camaraderie, the fellowship of that
715
00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:39.400
relationship with a fellow driver.
716
00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:42.279
There's nothing like it. It's not anything you can have
717
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:47.609
in Hollywood at all. He was really a good driver.
718
00:32:48.329 --> 00:32:50.630
It's Newman's fourth national championship.
719
00:32:50.690 --> 00:32:53.789
Pressure to win grew, as he did win, and people
720
00:32:53.849 --> 00:32:55.170
expected him to win again.
721
00:32:56.089 --> 00:32:58.250
People didn't even think of him as being a movie
722
00:32:58.269 --> 00:32:58.970
star racer.
723
00:32:58.990 --> 00:32:59.890
He was just a racer.
724
00:33:00.259 --> 00:33:02.880
He was that classic red-blooded American boy.
725
00:33:03.940 --> 00:33:06.279
Paul has a saying, I'm sure you've heard, where he says,
726
00:33:06.339 --> 00:33:08.460
winning isn't everything, it's just all there is.
727
00:33:09.339 --> 00:33:12.150
You see it with the Oscars. People vote.
728
00:33:12.269 --> 00:33:13.849
They say him or her.
729
00:33:16.529 --> 00:33:19.299
In this, you either cross the finish line first, and
730
00:33:19.380 --> 00:33:20.680
it's either him or her.
731
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:20.960
Cool.

756
00:34:38.409 --> 00:34:40.469
Um, so when did you make this?
757
00:34:41.190 --> 00:34:42.949
Oh, 10 years ago, maybe.
758
00:34:43.289 --> 00:34:46.530
And were you, you were obviously, I know you're into cars,
759
00:34:46.670 --> 00:34:48.610
but you, you were a fan of, of Newman's or
760
00:34:48.659 --> 00:34:50.539
just the idea of him being like, well, how did
761
00:34:50.579 --> 00:34:52.199
that come?
762
00:34:52.219 --> 00:34:54.719
I own 14 of his race cars.
763
00:34:55.460 --> 00:34:55.840
Oh, wow.
764
00:34:56.320 --> 00:34:59.900
The cars you see in that trailer, most of them
765
00:34:59.980 --> 00:35:00.239
I own.
766
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:01.579
Oh, no way. Cool. Yeah.
767
00:35:01.639 --> 00:35:02.940
So then I raced them.
768
00:35:03.780 --> 00:35:06.820
So then I was like, somebody's got to make a
769
00:35:06.860 --> 00:35:11.570
movie about, Oh, what would happen? Well, no, what would
770
00:35:11.630 --> 00:35:16.730
happen to me is I would be racing Paul Newman's cars.
771
00:35:16.969 --> 00:35:20.940
And then people like Paul Newman, what? And I'd be like,
772
00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:25.599
race is race cars. They go, The popcorn guy? I'd go, no,
773
00:35:25.699 --> 00:35:26.719
he raced cars.
774
00:35:26.860 --> 00:35:27.920
And they'd go, I don't know.
775
00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:31.300
So then I talked to enough people who had no
776
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:34.860
idea that he raced cars that I was motivated to go, well,
777
00:35:34.900 --> 00:35:38.320
somebody's got to come out with a doc that shows.
778
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:42.699
Because I knew everything about his car racing career because
779
00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:45.599
I had the cars and I would talk to. his own.
780
00:35:45.780 --> 00:35:49.219
Did you talk to him? No, he was dead by
781
00:35:49.260 --> 00:35:50.019
the time I made this.
782
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:52.980
I often think of that phrase that he said, which
783
00:35:53.179 --> 00:35:55.519
is before he even said it here, I knew it
784
00:35:55.619 --> 00:35:57.550
was going to be in there. It's the only thing
785
00:35:57.570 --> 00:36:01.840
I've ever done with any grace. Which is so interesting
786
00:36:01.889 --> 00:36:06.050
because if you were looking for a way to describe
787
00:36:06.090 --> 00:36:09.829
his film persona, you would say graceful. And yet he
788
00:36:10.050 --> 00:36:12.809
didn't see it that way. And also there's something interesting
789
00:36:12.829 --> 00:36:18.130
in that footage where he seemed so much more himself
790
00:36:18.250 --> 00:36:21.699
in those environments than he did as a movie star.
791
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:24.219
He just seems like a different guy, like a regular guy.
792
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:32.559
Yeah, the story that would keep being repeated from Bob Sharp,
793
00:36:32.619 --> 00:36:36.079
who's his team owner, with him and all the other
794
00:36:36.280 --> 00:36:41.000
people that were in his galaxy of racing, they would
795
00:36:41.019 --> 00:36:42.019
all say the same thing.
796
00:36:42.059 --> 00:36:44.420
They'd go... If you wanted to.
797
00:36:44.449 --> 00:36:48.449
Talk cars or racing or anything with Paul, he'll sit
798
00:36:48.469 --> 00:36:51.130
with you for an hour. If you want to start
799
00:36:51.170 --> 00:36:55.550
bringing up Hollywood, he had to leave. And they all
800
00:36:55.610 --> 00:36:58.940
sort of said, I mean, it sort of, it became
801
00:36:59.019 --> 00:37:02.360
apparent that, you know, he was a little bit prickly
802
00:37:02.619 --> 00:37:04.920
if you wanted to come up to him and say,
803
00:37:05.860 --> 00:37:09.199
ask him to sign your autograph or talk hollywood or
804
00:37:09.449 --> 00:37:12.030
gossip or anything like that but he'd be at the
805
00:37:12.090 --> 00:37:15.889
track all weekend yeah and you go to road atlanta
806
00:37:15.929 --> 00:37:18.630
you got to live at road atlanta because road atlanta
807
00:37:18.650 --> 00:37:21.530
is way outside of atlanta right and you have to
808
00:37:21.610 --> 00:37:24.150
set up a trailer right and that's where all the
809
00:37:24.690 --> 00:37:28.300
salad dressing came from so he'd barbecue for the crew
810
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:30.429
you have to have it's like a Look how a
811
00:37:30.530 --> 00:37:33.349
small army has to move in for the weekend with
812
00:37:33.369 --> 00:37:35.190
the mechanics and the backups and the parts.
813
00:37:35.210 --> 00:37:36.909
It's like a movie company, basically. Yeah, yeah.
814
00:37:36.949 --> 00:37:41.360
Trailers start pulling in and qualifying on practice on Thursday
815
00:37:41.389 --> 00:37:43.300
and qualifying on Friday, race on Saturday.
816
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:43.880
It's a whole world.
817
00:37:43.900 --> 00:37:44.739
It's a whole world.
818
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:45.920
And he would live there.
819
00:37:46.280 --> 00:37:49.519
And he'd live amongst the drivers and the mechanics and
820
00:37:49.960 --> 00:37:50.840
everybody who was there.
821
00:37:50.940 --> 00:37:51.199
Right.
822
00:37:51.860 --> 00:37:54.179
But they didn't bother him with movie stuff.
823
00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:54.519
Right.
824
00:37:54.699 --> 00:37:56.280
They were talking car stuff.
825
00:37:56.300 --> 00:37:56.639
Yeah.
826
00:37:56.820 --> 00:37:59.699
And he liked that. And yes, he seemed like he
827
00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:01.440
was very relaxed in that environment.
828
00:38:01.500 --> 00:38:01.860
Yeah.
829
00:38:02.260 --> 00:38:05.699
But he lived in Connecticut. He didn't live in Encino.
830
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:06.469
Right.
831
00:38:06.530 --> 00:38:07.650
He lived in Connecticut and New York.
832
00:38:07.769 --> 00:38:10.329
He didn't want to be part of it.
833
00:38:10.409 --> 00:38:15.630
I guess not. Yeah, he definitely... But he loved it, too.
834
00:38:15.789 --> 00:38:19.570
You know, he loved acting. He loved stories. He loved moviemaking.
835
00:38:19.829 --> 00:38:21.659
I mean, he may have gotten sick of the pomp
836
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:25.019
and circumstances around it. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
837
00:38:25.199 --> 00:38:29.380
I definitely, I mean, in a way, going back to,
838
00:38:29.400 --> 00:38:31.920
did you see Ethan Hawke's documentary about him?
839
00:38:31.960 --> 00:38:34.389
The Gray House. Yeah. Except for, I'll tell you, I
840
00:38:34.389 --> 00:38:36.650
have a problem with that. I'll tell you why.
841
00:38:37.829 --> 00:38:42.719
He's kind of Costner-esque, and Costner loves the story. He
842
00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:45.559
just doesn't want to live in Hollywood.
843
00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:47.940
And deal with that, the mess. You know what I mean?
844
00:38:48.059 --> 00:38:49.659
It's just understandable. Yes.
845
00:38:50.039 --> 00:38:50.639
Ethan Hawke.
846
00:38:50.760 --> 00:38:52.210
All right, now I'm looking at poor Andrew.
847
00:38:53.769 --> 00:38:59.489
That paint thing. It's probably, it's five-eighths into the movie,
848
00:39:00.070 --> 00:39:00.710
I would say.
849
00:39:01.869 --> 00:39:02.530
I'd say if the.
850
00:39:02.469 --> 00:39:06.730
Movie is hour and 45, it's an hour in, as
851
00:39:06.809 --> 00:39:07.150
I would say.
852
00:39:07.170 --> 00:39:10.340
But this is the problem with Hollywood.
853
00:39:11.469 --> 00:39:15.550
Even Hawk made a whole thing about Newman, and there
854
00:39:15.570 --> 00:39:18.780
was like 21 seconds of, oh, and he liked to
855
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:21.800
drive cars. Now let's go on to the time he
856
00:39:21.820 --> 00:39:25.429
did this Shakespearean play. And I'm like, his number one
857
00:39:25.550 --> 00:39:26.949
thing was driving cars.
858
00:39:26.989 --> 00:39:27.730
Right, right, right, right.
859
00:39:27.849 --> 00:39:29.969
And even Hawk's number one thing is acting.
860
00:39:30.010 --> 00:39:30.349
Acting.
861
00:39:30.389 --> 00:39:34.809
Right. So now it's an interesting thing. Now you're going
862
00:39:34.829 --> 00:39:37.650
to make a documentary about a guy whose number one
863
00:39:37.670 --> 00:39:39.070
thing was car driving.
864
00:39:39.130 --> 00:39:39.429
Right.
865
00:39:39.489 --> 00:39:42.349
He had a 40-year car racing career, and that's all
866
00:39:42.389 --> 00:39:43.190
he wanted to do.
867
00:39:43.210 --> 00:39:43.570
Yeah, yeah.
868
00:39:43.630 --> 00:39:45.230
But all you want to do is act.
869
00:39:45.590 --> 00:39:46.449
I can forgive him that.
870
00:39:46.550 --> 00:39:46.670
I can.
871
00:39:46.690 --> 00:39:47.989
Because that's his, you can't.
872
00:39:48.210 --> 00:39:50.989
Well, he made like a three-part doc. He should have
873
00:39:51.030 --> 00:39:54.309
given him three minutes of racing. Look, here's what I'm saying.
874
00:39:55.650 --> 00:39:56.369
I don't know.
875
00:39:57.780 --> 00:39:59.900
What is your passion outside of acting.
876
00:39:59.940 --> 00:40:00.300
Music.
877
00:40:00.940 --> 00:40:01.380
Music.
878
00:40:01.659 --> 00:40:01.920
Okay.
879
00:40:02.079 --> 00:40:03.699
Music, creating music, and music.
880
00:40:03.739 --> 00:40:04.199
Yeah. All right.
881
00:40:04.300 --> 00:40:06.519
So if I made a three-part doc about you and
882
00:40:06.579 --> 00:40:09.780
didn't touch on your love of music, then I would
883
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:10.880
be a douche.
884
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:14.840
You wouldn't have understood me. Right.
885
00:40:14.860 --> 00:40:17.199
You did a big long doc about Paul Newman and
886
00:40:17.300 --> 00:40:20.940
didn't get what his raison d'etre was, like his essence
887
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.980
was racing. And you didn't cover it because you're not
888
00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:24.920
interested in cars.
889
00:40:24.980 --> 00:40:26.440
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I'm saying. I mean, I
890
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:27.420
get your point. It's a valid point.
891
00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:29.050
Thank you, douche.
892
00:40:29.619 --> 00:40:33.369
All right. Who's a douche? Ethan Hawke. No, he's not.
893
00:40:33.389 --> 00:40:35.230
For not covering his racing.
894
00:40:35.590 --> 00:40:36.230
All right, here it is.
895
00:40:36.510 --> 00:40:37.250
This is the scene.
896
00:40:37.289 --> 00:40:41.230
Sorry. Oh, this is the Albert? Yeah, I took 40 minutes,
897
00:40:41.269 --> 00:40:42.170
but yeah, enjoy it.
898
00:40:43.369 --> 00:40:45.869
I don't know why. Now everybody can say to me,
899
00:40:46.650 --> 00:40:49.789
pause it, why is this funny to me?
900
00:40:50.210 --> 00:40:50.769
I don't know.
901
00:40:51.389 --> 00:40:54.130
It's funny because it doesn't need to be in the movie.
902
00:40:54.170 --> 00:40:57.030
All right. I'm on probation for stealing those books.
903
00:40:57.530 --> 00:40:59.800
Now they're going to think I stole this. I'm going
904
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:02.340
to be expelled. You won't be expelled.
905
00:41:02.429 --> 00:41:03.239
Of course I will.
906
00:41:03.320 --> 00:41:05.760
I'm already on probation. I'm in big trouble.
907
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:08.420
I love the teacher.
908
00:41:09.659 --> 00:41:10.739
Good afternoon, class.
909
00:41:11.400 --> 00:41:13.239
Good afternoon, Mr.
910
00:41:13.400 --> 00:41:14.320
Codworth.
911
00:41:14.760 --> 00:41:17.570
Continue working on the assignments you started last Tuesday.
912
00:41:19.550 --> 00:41:20.610
Here, take these.
913
00:41:20.809 --> 00:41:23.349
Really? I'll say I lost mine.
914
00:41:23.630 --> 00:41:24.849
But you'll get in trouble.
915
00:41:25.010 --> 00:41:25.610
Just do it.
916
00:41:28.530 --> 00:41:29.630
This guy's great.
917
00:41:29.730 --> 00:41:32.809
Daniel, where are your supplies? I left them at home.
918
00:41:33.030 --> 00:41:33.610
You left them?
919
00:41:34.550 --> 00:41:35.130
I lost them.
920
00:41:35.780 --> 00:41:39.179
What did you do? Lose them or leave them? Well, both.
921
00:41:39.280 --> 00:41:42.420
I left them and I lost them. Where are your supplies, Daniel?
922
00:41:42.460 --> 00:41:44.920
What's going on? Do you know how much these things cost?
923
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:47.840
Please tell Daniel how much the paints cost.
924
00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:51.840
$ 10.
925
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:50.699
And the brushes?
926
00:41:50.699 --> 00:41:54.699
$ 3.
927
00:41:53.099 --> 00:41:53.960
What's the total?
928
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:56.800
$ 13.
929
00:41:55.380 --> 00:41:59.599
You don't have any paint. Totally.
930
00:41:59.619 --> 00:42:01.980
I don't know if I'm laughing because you primed me
931
00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:02.800
for it.
932
00:42:02.860 --> 00:42:04.340
It's totally unnecessary.
933
00:42:04.360 --> 00:42:05.719
It's very funny, though. I don't know if I would
934
00:42:05.760 --> 00:42:06.510
have picked up on it.
935
00:42:07.570 --> 00:42:09.630
It's those kinds of details.
936
00:42:09.670 --> 00:42:11.349
That's why a Ferrari is great.
937
00:42:11.389 --> 00:42:11.769
You're right.
938
00:42:11.789 --> 00:42:12.690
The little stuff.
939
00:42:12.750 --> 00:42:14.449
It's very funny. It's very funny.
940
00:42:14.550 --> 00:42:16.050
I want to hear him do it one more time.
941
00:42:16.090 --> 00:42:17.170
Just the number part.
942
00:42:17.250 --> 00:42:21.130
It was $ 10 and $ 3 and $ 3.
943
00:42:18.610 --> 00:42:19.869
50.
944
00:42:19.869 --> 00:42:21.909
And by the way, he had to coach these kids.
945
00:42:21.929 --> 00:42:22.349
Right, right.
946
00:42:22.389 --> 00:42:24.429
He had to go, you say $ 3. Because you know,
947
00:42:24.449 --> 00:42:26.539
it probably was written as one. And then as he
948
00:42:26.559 --> 00:42:29.739
was doing it, he says, no, no, you guys say $ 3. 50.
949
00:42:28.500 --> 00:42:31.960
And then when you add them, the same people that
950
00:42:32.019 --> 00:42:32.239
said $ 3.
951
00:42:32.139 --> 00:42:33.300
50 are going to make it $ 13.
952
00:42:33.199 --> 00:42:33.260
50.
953
00:42:33.239 --> 00:42:35.199
And then the other ones are going to make it.
954
00:42:35.219 --> 00:42:36.619
We didn't get to that part. Oh, yeah.
955
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:38.760
They do it. Here it is.
956
00:42:38.969 --> 00:42:39.809
Here, take these.
957
00:42:39.969 --> 00:42:41.309
Really?
958
00:42:41.829 --> 00:42:42.789
I'll say I lost mine.
959
00:42:43.090 --> 00:42:44.289
But you'll get in trouble.
960
00:42:44.469 --> 00:42:45.039
Just do it.
961
00:42:46.449 --> 00:42:47.489
He looks just like Albert.
962
00:42:47.710 --> 00:42:48.170
He does.
963
00:42:49.190 --> 00:42:50.630
Daniel, where are your supplies?
964
00:42:51.429 --> 00:42:52.230
I left them at home.
965
00:42:52.489 --> 00:42:53.050
You left them?
966
00:42:53.989 --> 00:42:54.570
I lost them.
967
00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:57.159
What did you do? Lose them or leave them?
968
00:42:57.900 --> 00:42:58.619
Well, both.
969
00:42:58.719 --> 00:43:00.519
I left them and I lost them.
970
00:43:00.539 --> 00:43:01.900
Where are your supplies, Daniel?
971
00:43:01.920 --> 00:43:02.699
What's going on?
972
00:43:02.739 --> 00:43:05.539
Do you know how much these things cost? Class, tell
973
00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:07.260
Daniel how much the paints cost.
974
00:43:07.260 --> 00:43:11.260
$ 10.
975
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:10.139
And the brushes?
976
00:43:10.139 --> 00:43:14.139
$ 3.
977
00:43:12.559 --> 00:43:14.940
What's the total? $ 13.
978
00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:21.090
If you don't have any paint, you can't be an artist, Daniel.
979
00:43:21.110 --> 00:43:23.170
All right. It's funny, but I swear I really don't
980
00:43:23.190 --> 00:43:25.090
know if I would have laughed if you hadn't. What's
981
00:43:25.150 --> 00:43:27.800
funny that's into itself is that I didn't pick up
982
00:43:27.860 --> 00:43:28.059
on it.
983
00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:30.599
Well, there's so many great jokes in it.
984
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:31.019
Right.
985
00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:36.239
But all movies... at least try for those jokes. It's
986
00:43:36.260 --> 00:43:38.309
the little ones that nobody noticed.
987
00:43:38.329 --> 00:43:40.469
But it's not a joke. No, it's not. It's funny
988
00:43:40.530 --> 00:43:44.090
because it's just real. It's like that the kids are all,
989
00:43:44.590 --> 00:43:47.449
you know, somehow they got the information wrong.
990
00:43:48.519 --> 00:43:51.360
And that the class got split between the $ 3 and
991
00:43:51.380 --> 00:43:52.559
the $ 3.
992
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:52.739
50 group.
993
00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:56.579
You know somewhere there's an outtake of the teacher going, now, okay,
994
00:43:56.739 --> 00:43:57.219
who said $ 3.
995
00:43:57.059 --> 00:43:57.139
50?
996
00:43:57.139 --> 00:44:03.280
Right, but that's... That's what makes someone a genius.
997
00:44:03.340 --> 00:44:05.199
It's the little... I agree.
998
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:06.889
It's the little stuff, you know?
999
00:44:06.929 --> 00:44:08.110
I agree. He is a genius.
1000
00:44:08.590 --> 00:44:13.309
And then, so, Quiz Show, which is an amazing film.
1001
00:44:13.369 --> 00:44:16.360
Which Paul Newman almost was in. Oh, really? Yeah, Bob
1002
00:44:16.380 --> 00:44:20.320
wanted to cast him For a while. And Paul Schofield part,
1003
00:44:20.340 --> 00:44:25.269
which is Rafe's father, Mark Van Doren. And I don't
1004
00:44:25.289 --> 00:44:29.170
think Paul wanted to do it. But he wouldn't have
1005
00:44:29.190 --> 00:44:32.750
been as well cast as Schofield ultimately was. Let's see.
1006
00:44:32.829 --> 00:44:36.230
What year was that? We shot it in, I think, 93. Hmm.
1007
00:44:36.250 --> 00:44:39.880
I wonder if he was running in the Trans Am
1008
00:44:39.960 --> 00:44:41.460
series in 93.
1009
00:44:41.460 --> 00:44:43.559
That could have been a reason, too. But that's when
1010
00:44:43.599 --> 00:44:45.519
I met him was at the opening.
1011
00:44:45.539 --> 00:44:45.610
And.
1012
00:44:46.869 --> 00:44:49.250
I remember he walked by. I didn't want to bother
1013
00:44:49.269 --> 00:44:52.030
him because I, you know, I would only talk about movies,
1014
00:44:52.070 --> 00:44:55.190
probably not race cars. So I kind of sensed that.
1015
00:44:55.449 --> 00:44:57.550
But he came walking by me and squeezed my elbow,
1016
00:44:57.809 --> 00:45:00.570
which was like the highlight of my night. Oh, Newman, really?
1017
00:45:00.610 --> 00:45:00.809
Yeah.
1018
00:45:01.210 --> 00:45:02.449
So he came to the opening.
1019
00:45:02.469 --> 00:45:02.699
Yeah.
1020
00:45:03.010 --> 00:45:04.159
God, that had to be a thrill.
1021
00:45:04.360 --> 00:45:08.019
It was so, I mean, yeah. Everyone was at that opening.
1022
00:45:08.059 --> 00:45:11.739
But the set was constantly being visited by people. And,
1023
00:45:11.880 --> 00:45:14.760
you know, everyone just wanted to be around Bob.
1024
00:45:15.380 --> 00:45:15.599
Yeah.
1025
00:45:15.619 --> 00:45:17.389
Exactly. Redford. Yeah.
1026
00:45:17.869 --> 00:45:19.730
That movie was nominated, right?
1027
00:45:19.849 --> 00:45:23.650
It was nominated for Best Pictures, I think Screenplay. Schofield
1028
00:45:24.030 --> 00:45:24.630
was nominated.
1029
00:45:25.170 --> 00:45:28.590
Who won everything that year? I think it might have
1030
00:45:28.610 --> 00:45:29.690
been a Pulp Fiction year.
1031
00:45:29.690 --> 00:45:30.570
94?
1032
00:45:30.570 --> 00:45:31.070
Yeah.
1033
00:45:31.449 --> 00:45:35.239
Yeah, I think that was a Pulp Fiction year.
1034
00:45:35.300 --> 00:45:35.519
Yeah.
1035
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:37.559
I think it was 94.
1036
00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:40.460
Which is understandable. I mean, that was such a seminal movie,
1037
00:45:40.519 --> 00:45:42.739
Pulp Fiction. It really was radical.
1038
00:45:43.179 --> 00:45:46.530
Well, they're... They're good movies, and then they're sort of
1039
00:45:46.869 --> 00:45:51.110
game-changer movies that sort of change the format of movies.
1040
00:45:51.170 --> 00:45:53.590
Quiz Show's a good classic. I mean, it still holds up.
1041
00:45:53.630 --> 00:45:58.989
I've seen it recently. It's a solid movie, especially in retrospect,
1042
00:45:59.070 --> 00:46:01.579
you know, because even in the 90s when it came out,
1043
00:46:01.619 --> 00:46:04.940
to think like, wait, that was, you know, people really
1044
00:46:04.980 --> 00:46:08.059
believed that a quiz show wasn't rigged, you know? But now,
1045
00:46:08.119 --> 00:46:11.750
with all this time, it still holds up. But... Pulp
1046
00:46:11.789 --> 00:46:14.769
Fiction is, as you say, a game changer.
1047
00:46:15.889 --> 00:46:22.570
You know, it's a good sign when your filmmaker, like Tarantino,
1048
00:46:22.590 --> 00:46:27.320
I will toggle back and forth. I'll be like, oh,
1049
00:46:27.500 --> 00:46:30.420
Inglourious Basterds, yeah. Oh, no, Django.
1050
00:46:30.599 --> 00:46:33.460
Oh, Once Upon a Time in Harlem. Oh, no, Pulp Fiction.
1051
00:46:34.179 --> 00:46:36.139
I'll just keep going back and forth.
1052
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:38.010
You mean in terms of what you think is the hierarchy?
1053
00:46:38.030 --> 00:46:40.010
It's like the Coen brothers, you know, with some of
1054
00:46:40.030 --> 00:46:40.469
their films.
1055
00:46:40.570 --> 00:46:43.730
It's like, Geez, I don't know where to, I don't
1056
00:46:43.769 --> 00:46:47.150
know that I could pick a definitive number one.
1057
00:46:47.269 --> 00:46:49.829
Doesn't he say Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, I think?
1058
00:46:51.409 --> 00:46:52.289
Is what?
1059
00:46:52.309 --> 00:46:55.750
He thinks his best film, I think. Or Inglourious Basterds,
1060
00:46:55.769 --> 00:46:57.030
I can't remember.
1061
00:46:57.340 --> 00:47:00.860
I don't know what he personally says. I was looking,
1062
00:47:01.840 --> 00:47:04.480
I was in Texas doing some shows a few weeks
1063
00:47:04.539 --> 00:47:08.860
ago and somehow the Coen brothers came up and they
1064
00:47:08.900 --> 00:47:14.179
did one of those top, 10 ranked Coen brothers.
1065
00:47:14.480 --> 00:47:16.920
I'm convinced though. They just do that to piss me off.
1066
00:47:17.420 --> 00:47:18.599
Piss you off. Yeah.
1067
00:47:18.659 --> 00:47:19.179
Personally.
1068
00:47:19.219 --> 00:47:19.739
Right. Yeah.
1069
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:20.610
Cause Rolling Stone.
1070
00:47:20.670 --> 00:47:21.250
I'll do that.
1071
00:47:21.269 --> 00:47:24.449
You know, they'll go Joan Jett, best guitar, rock guitar.
1072
00:47:24.530 --> 00:47:25.710
I'll go get the fuck out of here.
1073
00:47:25.730 --> 00:47:25.829
Right.
1074
00:47:26.070 --> 00:47:27.369
They're doing it to anger me.
1075
00:47:27.530 --> 00:47:27.809
Right.
1076
00:47:28.030 --> 00:47:28.210
Right.
1077
00:47:28.230 --> 00:47:30.489
Well, they engage you. That's half the battle. Yeah.
1078
00:47:30.530 --> 00:47:34.110
But it was the Coen brothers, uh, like top 10,
1079
00:47:34.110 --> 00:47:38.860
which was great. But it was, uh, Fargo. It was
1080
00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:40.199
not number one or whatever.
1081
00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:41.219
Well, no, no.
1082
00:47:42.230 --> 00:47:46.230
Something, there was quite a few films that were above
1083
00:47:46.329 --> 00:47:50.329
Raising Arizona. And I'm like, Raising Arizona is another game
1084
00:47:50.389 --> 00:47:51.630
changer film.
1085
00:47:51.650 --> 00:47:52.050
Yeah, yeah.
1086
00:47:52.329 --> 00:47:58.199
And it's a different, oh, you know what happened? Here's weird.
1087
00:47:58.889 --> 00:48:03.460
In Glorious Bastards, Tarantino considers his best. The Coen Brothers
1088
00:48:03.539 --> 00:48:08.130
top 10. Okay, here's what happened. I was thinking the
1089
00:48:08.190 --> 00:48:11.139
other day, like on movies that you like, you think
1090
00:48:11.199 --> 00:48:13.039
back on certain scenes, right?
1091
00:48:13.099 --> 00:48:13.260
Yeah.
1092
00:48:13.900 --> 00:48:19.719
And I love that whole Arizona thing, the guy who
1093
00:48:19.840 --> 00:48:22.139
owned the unpainted furniture store.
1094
00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:25.780
Who changed his name to Arizona.
1095
00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:26.519
Right.
1096
00:48:26.659 --> 00:48:30.619
And so there was a scene where they go, wait
1097
00:48:30.659 --> 00:48:31.349
a minute, is your.
1098
00:48:31.210 --> 00:48:33.809
Last name Arizona? Are your kids' names really Arizona?
1099
00:48:33.829 --> 00:48:33.929
Yeah.
1100
00:48:34.219 --> 00:48:36.920
He goes, no, my name's not at Real Arizona. He goes, well,
1101
00:48:36.980 --> 00:48:37.480
why didn't you?
1102
00:48:39.110 --> 00:48:43.809
I think the furniture store was called like Unpainted Arizona.
1103
00:48:44.090 --> 00:48:45.789
And he goes, well, would you.
1104
00:48:45.730 --> 00:48:49.769
Buy furniture from a place called Unpainted Huffhines? I was like,
1105
00:48:49.789 --> 00:48:52.969
that's funny. And then I was driving through Texas and
1106
00:48:52.989 --> 00:48:56.210
there was a big billboard like nominate John Huffhines.
1107
00:48:57.639 --> 00:48:58.119
Wait, now?
1108
00:48:58.440 --> 00:49:01.900
Now, like two weeks ago. And I started looking at it.
1109
00:49:01.920 --> 00:49:04.199
I was like, there is a guy named Huff Hines. Like,
1110
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:05.300
I didn't know.
1111
00:49:05.320 --> 00:49:07.860
I was thinking about it.
1112
00:49:08.340 --> 00:49:09.119
Nominate him for what?
1113
00:49:09.889 --> 00:49:13.050
They want him for city council or Congress.
1114
00:49:13.110 --> 00:49:15.989
But there's a completely not, he's not related. It's just coincidental.
1115
00:49:16.590 --> 00:49:17.889
That's a real name is what you're saying.
1116
00:49:18.090 --> 00:49:18.349
Yes.
1117
00:49:18.429 --> 00:49:19.949
And I was thinking is that.
1118
00:49:20.159 --> 00:49:21.199
A name? Right, right, right.
1119
00:49:21.380 --> 00:49:22.860
And I was thinking about when I was back in
1120
00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:25.699
LA and then three days later, I was in Texas
1121
00:49:25.739 --> 00:49:28.150
seeing a big sign that said, vote for Steve Huffman.
1122
00:49:28.170 --> 00:49:29.809
Yeah, and you should be betting on the stock market
1123
00:49:29.849 --> 00:49:30.250
or something.
1124
00:49:30.269 --> 00:49:30.510
I know.
1125
00:49:31.190 --> 00:49:33.030
Reader's poll, 10%.
1126
00:49:33.030 --> 00:49:35.989
Dawson, who is running for Texas Senate?
1127
00:49:36.409 --> 00:49:36.949
Huffines.
1128
00:49:37.849 --> 00:49:40.210
What's the dude's name? Corwin is one of them, right?
1129
00:49:40.690 --> 00:49:44.570
No, Huffines. Okay. That's what I'm saying. Not asking about Corwin.
1130
00:49:44.710 --> 00:49:45.429
All right, so wait a minute.
1131
00:49:45.969 --> 00:49:54.239
Raising Arizona is number six, which Miller's Crossing, number five. Oh, brother,
1132
00:49:54.280 --> 00:49:58.619
we're out there. But more than Raising Arizona, you idiots? Sorry,
1133
00:49:58.820 --> 00:50:00.960
I'm getting angry. No Country for Old Men should be
1134
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:05.260
number one. Fargo should be number.
1135
00:50:05.099 --> 00:50:05.320
One, too.
1136
00:50:05.340 --> 00:50:07.590
This must have to do with popularity. I'll bet you
1137
00:50:07.650 --> 00:50:09.769
the box office, oh, the big one.
1138
00:50:09.929 --> 00:50:10.969
Sorry.
1139
00:50:11.050 --> 00:50:12.210
But that's such a favorite.
1140
00:50:12.670 --> 00:50:17.409
I get it, but my God, no country for old men.
1141
00:50:17.429 --> 00:50:18.170
I mean, what a film.
1142
00:50:18.289 --> 00:50:19.329
What a masterpiece.
1143
00:50:19.449 --> 00:50:20.429
What a masterpiece.
1144
00:50:20.659 --> 00:50:22.980
Texas Senate is Corwin and Paxton.
1145
00:50:23.119 --> 00:50:25.840
I'm looking to see where Huffines is. I'll just put
1146
00:50:25.880 --> 00:50:28.760
his name in, like put Huff Hines in text.
1147
00:50:29.099 --> 00:50:33.420
It's so funny. It's not a real name. Did you
1148
00:50:33.460 --> 00:50:34.530
elect Huff Hines?
1149
00:50:35.300 --> 00:50:37.139
The dude's name is Huff Hines.
1150
00:50:37.340 --> 00:50:39.630
And it was so weird that I was just sitting
1151
00:50:39.690 --> 00:50:42.469
in my condo going, is that a name?
1152
00:50:42.530 --> 00:50:45.090
Is that a real name? Is there anyone? And then
1153
00:50:45.210 --> 00:50:48.030
I started thinking, I've never heard of anyone named Huff Hines.
1154
00:50:48.150 --> 00:50:50.389
I didn't go to high school. And then I pass
1155
00:50:50.449 --> 00:50:53.710
a big, big billboard.
1156
00:50:53.889 --> 00:50:54.150
Right.
1157
00:50:54.539 --> 00:51:05.289
Donald Huffines, conservative, Tea Party, Republican, owns a restaurant, owns
1158
00:51:05.389 --> 00:51:08.550
a real estate company. Well, what's he running? I don't know,
1159
00:51:08.590 --> 00:51:11.429
but what's he running for? He's running for whatever in Texas, right?
1160
00:51:11.719 --> 00:51:13.139
He was in the Texas Senate from 2015 to 2019. Wow.
1161
00:51:13.179 --> 00:51:13.260
Wow.
1162
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:18.429
It's funny because when you come up with these names
1163
00:51:18.449 --> 00:51:20.619
in the scripts, there's such a vetting process with the
1164
00:51:20.659 --> 00:51:23.130
business affairs people that it's like– that's why I think
1165
00:51:23.170 --> 00:51:26.909
so many names are so bizarre. They have to make–
1166
00:51:27.289 --> 00:51:29.869
you have to make names that aren't real because if
1167
00:51:29.889 --> 00:51:33.309
there's a possibility that there is an actual Huffheims out
1168
00:51:33.369 --> 00:51:36.750
there with the same first name, they're worried they're going
1169
00:51:36.769 --> 00:51:37.329
to get sued.
1170
00:51:37.730 --> 00:51:38.070
Yeah.
1171
00:51:38.130 --> 00:51:42.210
So what they do is if you make your character
1172
00:51:42.230 --> 00:51:44.190
a name, they go see if there are other people
1173
00:51:44.230 --> 00:51:47.230
that have that name. So you won't get sued.
1174
00:51:47.329 --> 00:51:47.610
Right.
1175
00:51:47.750 --> 00:51:49.389
Which is an insane process.
1176
00:51:49.530 --> 00:51:49.769
Yeah.
1177
00:51:50.309 --> 00:51:50.809
And then.
1178
00:51:50.829 --> 00:51:54.670
It's also the 555 thing, which just drives me crazy.
1179
00:51:54.710 --> 00:51:55.230
It drives me nuts.
1180
00:51:55.289 --> 00:51:55.769
Right out of the movie.
1181
00:51:55.789 --> 00:51:56.429
Right out of the film.
1182
00:51:56.469 --> 00:51:59.780
But sometimes I've noticed lately I'm not seeing it as much.
1183
00:52:00.099 --> 00:52:01.260
But I don't know how they're getting around it.
1184
00:52:01.260 --> 00:52:07.539
The part that drives me nuts is... Oh, it's awful.
1185
00:52:07.699 --> 00:52:08.070
I did a.
1186
00:52:08.059 --> 00:52:08.119
So.
1187
00:52:10.219 --> 00:52:12.820
First off, you can fix it. First off, a lot
1188
00:52:12.840 --> 00:52:14.670
of it is unnecessary. The person's in the.
1189
00:52:16.489 --> 00:52:19.840
Phone booth in the movie, and they're like, all right,
1190
00:52:20.260 --> 00:52:22.559
you need to call me back. And then they go,
1191
00:52:22.599 --> 00:52:25.260
you can reach me at 555, and then they cut.
1192
00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:27.280
It's like, just say you need to call me back
1193
00:52:27.340 --> 00:52:30.500
and hang up the phone. I'll go along with you
1194
00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:32.659
on this. When you yell 555.
1195
00:52:32.639 --> 00:52:33.440
It takes you right out.
1196
00:52:33.659 --> 00:52:35.400
Or when the guy goes, he's.
1197
00:52:35.260 --> 00:52:37.139
Picking up the chick, and then she goes, well, here's
1198
00:52:37.199 --> 00:52:39.840
my number. They do tight on her writing it down.
1199
00:52:39.920 --> 00:52:41.699
How about just hand him a piece of paper?
1200
00:52:42.280 --> 00:52:42.920
There's a number.
1201
00:52:43.579 --> 00:52:44.019
You did the 555.
1202
00:52:44.000 --> 00:52:46.159
Why do I need to see the number?
1203
00:52:47.039 --> 00:52:51.809
I did a pilot where my guy was a driving
1204
00:52:51.869 --> 00:52:55.909
instructor at his own driving academy or whatever. And we
1205
00:52:55.949 --> 00:52:58.570
needed one of those magnetic signs on the thing that
1206
00:52:58.610 --> 00:53:01.110
said Z-Best Driving Academy or whatever.
1207
00:53:01.309 --> 00:53:01.929
Right.
1208
00:53:02.289 --> 00:53:05.019
And they were going, all right, 555. And I go, no,
1209
00:53:05.199 --> 00:53:07.360
I don't want the 555. So how did you get
1210
00:53:07.400 --> 00:53:11.179
around it? I took a regular phone number. I said,
1211
00:53:11.199 --> 00:53:14.570
just take a regular phone number, 818-763, like a valley
1212
00:53:14.710 --> 00:53:18.110
phone number. And then the last number, there'll be a
1213
00:53:18.210 --> 00:53:20.949
dent in the side of the car. It'll be like
1214
00:53:21.010 --> 00:53:24.949
taken out. So we'll just have this. My guy's a loser.
1215
00:53:25.010 --> 00:53:27.190
And it'll vandalize his own crappy car.
1216
00:53:27.199 --> 00:53:29.059
I just don't understand why it's a big deal anyway.
1217
00:53:29.139 --> 00:53:34.320
So what? How many people are going to call the number? Really?
1218
00:53:34.539 --> 00:53:37.130
It just seems maybe now with I don't know.
1219
00:53:37.150 --> 00:53:40.780
We should ask Tommy Two-Tone how that works.
1220
00:53:41.460 --> 00:53:42.090
He made that up.
1221
00:53:42.619 --> 00:53:43.599
He made up that number.
1222
00:53:43.619 --> 00:53:45.920
Yeah, the name Jenny, the numbers, they just came to
1223
00:53:45.940 --> 00:53:47.760
his head. He was just trying to write it.
1224
00:53:47.880 --> 00:53:48.659
It sounds good.
1225
00:53:48.699 --> 00:53:50.380
But isn't it somebody's number?
1226
00:53:51.199 --> 00:53:56.440
If you enter that number in any grocery store. You
1227
00:53:56.460 --> 00:53:58.760
will get the grocery store discount because someone has always
1228
00:53:58.820 --> 00:54:00.380
registered it with any area code.
1229
00:54:00.699 --> 00:54:04.039
Oh, really? I learned something new here. That's great. But yeah, no.
1230
00:54:04.460 --> 00:54:06.500
That could probably apply to a lot of things where
1231
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:08.840
you have to put your phone number first. I never
1232
00:54:08.920 --> 00:54:09.460
thought about that.
1233
00:54:09.480 --> 00:54:10.000
I didn't either.
1234
00:54:10.039 --> 00:54:11.340
That's useful information.
1235
00:54:12.079 --> 00:54:14.679
I'm heading to the Ralphs right after we get off
1236
00:54:14.800 --> 00:54:15.099
the air.
1237
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:15.929
All right.
1238
00:54:16.090 --> 00:54:18.309
You got to unplug maybe the computer or something?
1239
00:54:19.289 --> 00:54:19.510
Yeah.
1240
00:54:19.650 --> 00:54:22.469
Anyway, Huff Hines is an actual name.
1241
00:54:23.030 --> 00:54:23.809
Huff Hines.
1242
00:54:23.989 --> 00:54:25.230
And he ran.
1243
00:54:26.030 --> 00:54:30.349
It's also a weird life where you're sitting around contemplating
1244
00:54:30.409 --> 00:54:33.550
this name for some reason, and then four days later
1245
00:54:33.590 --> 00:54:35.750
you're driving through Texas and you look up at a
1246
00:54:35.769 --> 00:54:36.210
giant billboard.
1247
00:54:36.230 --> 00:54:37.969
That's what I mean. That's why you're kind of hooked
1248
00:54:38.010 --> 00:54:40.800
into the universe right now, I think. I am.
1249
00:54:41.380 --> 00:54:43.679
But it's only good for Coen Brothers movies.
1250
00:54:43.699 --> 00:54:44.719
There's got to be some other. You have to apply
1251
00:54:44.739 --> 00:54:45.940
it to something else. I got to take it to
1252
00:54:45.960 --> 00:54:46.300
the track.
1253
00:54:46.340 --> 00:54:46.860
You're right.
1254
00:54:47.300 --> 00:54:47.739
You're right.
1255
00:54:48.800 --> 00:54:49.219
Music.
1256
00:54:49.619 --> 00:54:49.800
Yeah.
1257
00:54:50.090 --> 00:54:50.989
You love music.
1258
00:54:51.050 --> 00:54:52.550
Love it.
1259
00:54:53.050 --> 00:54:55.170
Who are some of the people you love in music?
1260
00:54:56.000 --> 00:54:56.360
Oh, man.
1261
00:54:56.400 --> 00:54:58.280
You know, it's all over the map. It's from the
1262
00:54:58.320 --> 00:55:02.329
classic rock guys to before, to the jazz guys, to Miles,
1263
00:55:02.389 --> 00:55:06.690
that whole thing, to before, to Tommy Dorsey, to up now, to,
1264
00:55:07.969 --> 00:55:10.389
you know, I'm listening to Bruno Mars put out something
1265
00:55:10.429 --> 00:55:14.670
new that I was just listening to. And I mean,
1266
00:55:14.690 --> 00:55:18.719
I like everything. I'm all over the map. What music
1267
00:55:18.889 --> 00:55:23.670
do you play? What I play is what we call it,
1268
00:55:23.679 --> 00:55:25.219
you know, I've written a lot of music. I had
1269
00:55:25.239 --> 00:55:28.039
a band for a while and we call it soulful rock,
1270
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:31.219
funky pop. So it was, you know, it was melodic.
1271
00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:35.159
It was familiar melody. You know, it was comfortable melodies
1272
00:55:35.360 --> 00:55:40.579
with lyrics that meant something. And I love, I just,
1273
00:55:40.699 --> 00:55:45.159
it's the most immediate, you know, I wouldn't go as
1274
00:55:45.340 --> 00:55:46.949
far as to say what Paul said is the only
1275
00:55:46.969 --> 00:55:49.690
thing I do that's graceful. But like, there's something that,
1276
00:55:50.090 --> 00:55:55.289
when I'm in that pocket, as they say, it's irrefutable.
1277
00:55:56.210 --> 00:55:59.760
You can't deny, when a note is on pitch and
1278
00:56:00.199 --> 00:56:03.070
it hits you, it just hits you in a way
1279
00:56:03.110 --> 00:56:07.539
that words don't work. And so it connects me to
1280
00:56:07.579 --> 00:56:12.559
something bigger than myself and there's real joy there.
1281
00:56:12.820 --> 00:56:15.380
Well, I think.
1282
00:56:16.579 --> 00:56:20.760
What we're looking for And it's why people do drugs
1283
00:56:20.860 --> 00:56:25.360
and get addicted to sex. We're looking for sort of
1284
00:56:25.400 --> 00:56:28.119
a freedom. I don't want to sound corny.
1285
00:56:28.989 --> 00:56:32.130
No, it's a transcendence. And I think what we're talking
1286
00:56:32.210 --> 00:56:35.269
about in awe, and I think this is what Newman
1287
00:56:35.289 --> 00:56:37.530
was getting at, this is certainly what I'm getting at,
1288
00:56:37.650 --> 00:56:43.300
is this sense of awe, of this awe of existence,
1289
00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:46.219
which aside from all the shit that we have to
1290
00:56:46.300 --> 00:56:50.510
wade through on this planet, The amazing thing about being alive,
1291
00:56:50.650 --> 00:56:53.820
you know, and sitting here with you and laughing, it's like,
1292
00:56:54.199 --> 00:56:55.219
it's amazing.
1293
00:56:55.940 --> 00:57:00.980
I think we have a yearning to sort of escape
1294
00:57:01.579 --> 00:57:05.670
what is always with us. It's a kind of a gravity,
1295
00:57:05.789 --> 00:57:07.369
like big picture death.
1296
00:57:07.389 --> 00:57:07.730
For sure.
1297
00:57:07.750 --> 00:57:09.489
You know, it's just we're all going to die. Everyone
1298
00:57:09.510 --> 00:57:09.849
knows it.
1299
00:57:09.949 --> 00:57:10.190
Okay.
1300
00:57:10.210 --> 00:57:14.829
Then secondly, you get into. unpaid bills or there's this guy,
1301
00:57:14.869 --> 00:57:17.239
there's an issue or I have to, you know, the
1302
00:57:17.360 --> 00:57:21.139
unfinished business tend to whatever, whatever the fuck we're talking about.
1303
00:57:21.179 --> 00:57:21.380
Right.
1304
00:57:21.880 --> 00:57:27.159
But we all want this sort of freedom and you
1305
00:57:27.179 --> 00:57:29.789
have to kind of simulate it now in a sense
1306
00:57:29.829 --> 00:57:32.530
that when you're on stage and you're playing and you're
1307
00:57:32.550 --> 00:57:34.550
in that pocket and in that groove and in that
1308
00:57:34.630 --> 00:57:38.179
zone and everything is flowing and That's just where you are.
1309
00:57:38.380 --> 00:57:41.900
You're present. When you're behind the wheel of a race car,
1310
00:57:42.039 --> 00:57:45.659
you think of nothing. Skiing for me, mountain biking for me.
1311
00:57:46.059 --> 00:57:47.679
Stuff coming at you fast.
1312
00:57:47.760 --> 00:57:48.409
Right.
1313
00:57:48.610 --> 00:57:49.389
And some danger.
1314
00:57:49.469 --> 00:57:50.730
It forces you to be present.
1315
00:57:50.730 --> 00:57:52.349
100%.
1316
00:57:52.349 --> 00:57:57.530
And it's the only time in a world where you
1317
00:57:57.570 --> 00:58:02.480
could be watching the Paul McCartney documentary But also kind
1318
00:58:02.519 --> 00:58:05.480
of glancing at your phone or writing, thinking about shit
1319
00:58:05.500 --> 00:58:08.599
you got to do tomorrow. You could be having a conversation,
1320
00:58:08.639 --> 00:58:11.059
but also a little party is a little over here
1321
00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:14.929
somewhere else, thinking about a little something else. Going down
1322
00:58:14.969 --> 00:58:17.369
that ski slope at 40 miles an hour, there's nothing
1323
00:58:17.590 --> 00:58:18.590
but what's in front of you.
1324
00:58:18.610 --> 00:58:21.110
But what's the ultimate one? What's the top of the
1325
00:58:21.150 --> 00:58:21.989
cake of all of these?
1326
00:58:22.329 --> 00:58:22.469
Hmm.
1327
00:58:22.960 --> 00:58:25.920
Sex. Or not just sex, but orgasm.
1328
00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:31.139
Yes, it's orgasm because sometimes you'll wander a little sexually,
1329
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:31.820
the brain.
1330
00:58:31.860 --> 00:58:33.800
But that's why people want sex.
1331
00:58:33.820 --> 00:58:35.559
Right, but you don't tend to be thinking about your
1332
00:58:35.579 --> 00:58:39.539
accounting bill when you're orgasming. No, not so much. I
1333
00:58:39.559 --> 00:58:40.199
don't think so.
1334
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:42.739
Unless you really love deductions.
1335
00:58:44.320 --> 00:58:48.420
But no, it's true. So I have hypervigilance. I'm always
1336
00:58:48.440 --> 00:58:50.539
sort of thinking about this and thinking about that.
1337
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:53.510
Me too. That's ADHD, is it not? Because I've been
1338
00:58:53.530 --> 00:58:54.530
thinking about it a lot lately.
1339
00:58:54.610 --> 00:58:57.309
I don't know, but I can tell you when I
1340
00:58:57.349 --> 00:58:59.289
get out of the race car, if you ask me
1341
00:58:59.329 --> 00:59:01.329
what I was thinking, the answer would be, I have
1342
00:59:01.369 --> 00:59:01.809
no idea.
1343
00:59:01.829 --> 00:59:02.849
Right. That's why you love it.
1344
00:59:02.849 --> 00:59:06.690
There's no nothing but. So he wanted that. But you
1345
00:59:06.710 --> 00:59:10.030
can do it musically. And I think- It takes, by
1346
00:59:10.050 --> 00:59:11.769
the way, it takes a lot of work for me.
1347
00:59:11.909 --> 00:59:15.699
Because I only started writing music, you know, 15 years ago.
1348
00:59:16.070 --> 00:59:18.940
Right. And so this became, I'd strummed for most of
1349
00:59:18.960 --> 00:59:23.119
my life. But it became, it's a fascinating thing. It happened.
1350
00:59:23.139 --> 00:59:24.840
It just, I never thought I'd write a song. And
1351
00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:27.199
then I wrote this song. And all of a sudden
1352
00:59:27.239 --> 00:59:28.789
it was like, oh. This is what I want. You know,
1353
00:59:28.809 --> 00:59:31.000
it was like Newman. That's why I kind of, when
1354
00:59:31.039 --> 00:59:33.199
he said at 48, he became a race car driver.
1355
00:59:33.219 --> 00:59:36.139
At 50 or 48, I became a songwriter and a musician.
1356
00:59:36.639 --> 00:59:41.300
And I'm super dedicated to it now. But it was
1357
00:59:41.360 --> 00:59:41.940
late in life.
1358
00:59:42.860 --> 00:59:44.219
Yeah, well, that's a kind of a gift. It was
1359
00:59:44.239 --> 00:59:45.199
a huge gift.
1360
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:49.190
You know, that it didn't seem to exist in the past.
1361
00:59:49.210 --> 00:59:50.250
You know where that gift came from?
1362
00:59:50.570 --> 00:59:51.889
Conan. Hmm.
1363
00:59:52.210 --> 00:59:55.449
Right? So I'm on the Warner's lot. Yeah. We're doing
1364
00:59:55.510 --> 00:59:59.880
a show called The Whole Truth. It's... seven, no, 10 episodes,
1365
00:59:59.880 --> 01:00:03.199
12 episodes on ABC. It's a disaster. It's not doing well.
1366
01:00:03.300 --> 01:00:06.739
Jerry Bruckheimer thing. It's a law show. And Conan just
1367
01:00:06.780 --> 01:00:13.190
came to the lot at Warner's for his TBS show, right?
1368
01:00:13.469 --> 01:00:17.349
And they said anyone on the lot could, they would
1369
01:00:17.389 --> 01:00:19.489
set up a camera in his waiting room and you could,
1370
01:00:20.369 --> 01:00:22.190
any shows could come and get 10 minutes and they'll
1371
01:00:22.210 --> 01:00:24.530
put it on their site. And the PR people from
1372
01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:27.480
ABC came and said, you got to do something. And
1373
01:00:27.500 --> 01:00:29.769
I said, well, what should I do? They said, well, you,
1374
01:00:29.849 --> 01:00:31.349
they sell them with a guitar all the time. They say,
1375
01:00:31.389 --> 01:00:34.510
so sing a song. I was like, okay. You know,
1376
01:00:34.530 --> 01:00:36.289
and they were like, you have to do it in
1377
01:00:36.369 --> 01:00:39.389
two hours. And so I took like a blues progression.
1378
01:00:39.710 --> 01:00:41.969
I took, I could write words. So I wrote lyrics
1379
01:00:42.010 --> 01:00:43.650
and I had my assistant with the cue cards and
1380
01:00:43.670 --> 01:00:44.969
I went in there and I sang it and it's not,
1381
01:00:44.989 --> 01:00:47.170
you can get it on YouTube and, uh, it's not
1382
01:00:47.190 --> 01:00:49.989
good or anything, but it, it was like, oh shit,
1383
01:00:50.170 --> 01:00:51.909
I wrote a song and it performed it and it
1384
01:00:51.949 --> 01:00:55.760
wasn't terrible. And, uh, so I thank Conan for that. But, um,
1385
01:00:56.820 --> 01:00:59.820
It changed my life. It was a gift, that moment.
1386
01:01:01.039 --> 01:01:04.900
You know, it's so interesting because when I was young,
1387
01:01:05.219 --> 01:01:09.059
old people were old and they acted old and they
1388
01:01:09.079 --> 01:01:12.039
didn't do anything any different than they did 20 years
1389
01:01:12.099 --> 01:01:13.840
before that. They're just older.
1390
01:01:13.860 --> 01:01:14.260
Yeah.
1391
01:01:14.599 --> 01:01:17.059
And that was it. They're just kind of locked off,
1392
01:01:17.179 --> 01:01:21.199
you know. And now you start thinking about possibilities and
1393
01:01:21.300 --> 01:01:23.119
what's the next chapter hold and.
1394
01:01:23.099 --> 01:01:24.099
What I want to do.
1395
01:01:24.280 --> 01:01:28.619
And it's like kind of nuts because like, listen. you're old,
1396
01:01:29.059 --> 01:01:32.690
I'm old, and historically, it was time to just sort
1397
01:01:32.750 --> 01:01:34.769
of put your feet up and put a cardigan sweater
1398
01:01:34.909 --> 01:01:38.010
on and light a pipe and figure out the team
1399
01:01:38.030 --> 01:01:40.269
you rooted for and just sit and keep box scores.
1400
01:01:40.309 --> 01:01:43.190
Because you hear, I mean, every time someone tells me
1401
01:01:43.230 --> 01:01:46.380
about their parent who's 92 or 93, it's like, you
1402
01:01:46.420 --> 01:01:48.079
never heard that when I was a kid. Nobody was
1403
01:01:48.079 --> 01:01:49.260
92 or 93. Everyone's 92 or 93. And the idea
1404
01:01:49.420 --> 01:01:50.519
of being 100 is not unusual. 103 is not unusual.
1405
01:01:57.380 --> 01:02:00.050
That was like science fiction when we were young. So
1406
01:02:00.179 --> 01:02:05.510
you do have this potential. And I really advocate people to,
1407
01:02:05.610 --> 01:02:09.210
irregardless of whether it becomes a career or an avocation
1408
01:02:09.250 --> 01:02:11.969
or anything, find things you love at any point in
1409
01:02:12.030 --> 01:02:14.989
life and embrace them because the joy I get from
1410
01:02:15.050 --> 01:02:17.349
music is irreplaceable.
1411
01:02:18.090 --> 01:02:18.389
Yeah.
1412
01:02:18.750 --> 01:02:22.639
Well, it's... And by the way, regardless of whether you
1413
01:02:22.659 --> 01:02:25.530
make it in your 90s or not, go ahead and
1414
01:02:25.570 --> 01:02:25.900
do it.
1415
01:02:26.090 --> 01:02:26.590
Absolutely.
1416
01:02:26.630 --> 01:02:29.949
Because you and I, you know, I could get hit
1417
01:02:29.989 --> 01:02:32.010
by a truck leaving this place.
1418
01:02:32.050 --> 01:02:32.489
In an hour.
1419
01:02:32.510 --> 01:02:34.849
But what I'm saying is, you know, in theory, I
1420
01:02:34.869 --> 01:02:36.650
could be playing if I live that long. You're right.
1421
01:02:36.690 --> 01:02:38.699
I mean, who knows? But if I did, I could
1422
01:02:38.719 --> 01:02:41.300
have music as a part of my life. You know,
1423
01:02:41.320 --> 01:02:43.360
that could be the third of my life was about music.
1424
01:02:43.840 --> 01:02:45.219
Yeah.
1425
01:02:46.000 --> 01:02:49.179
Well, this is an interesting conversation. You're in town, right?
1426
01:02:49.590 --> 01:02:51.489
I mean, you should come back, you know.
1427
01:02:52.030 --> 01:02:52.469
I'd love to.
1428
01:02:52.690 --> 01:02:54.250
Do it a little more consistently.
1429
01:02:54.309 --> 01:02:54.929
Cool, thanks.
1430
01:02:54.949 --> 01:02:56.869
I could show you some more doc trailers.
1431
01:02:57.130 --> 01:02:59.230
Yeah, good. I want to see your doc.
1432
01:03:00.010 --> 01:03:03.610
I think as a guy who's worked with a lot
1433
01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:06.059
of the people that are in it and a fan
1434
01:03:06.119 --> 01:03:08.460
of Newman and Redford, for sure.
1435
01:03:08.480 --> 01:03:12.019
I remember my favorite Newman story was, you know, the
1436
01:03:12.099 --> 01:03:15.920
Westport Playhouse, which was near his house, which I did
1437
01:03:15.940 --> 01:03:19.340
a play up there. Um, and they, they helped finance it,
1438
01:03:19.380 --> 01:03:21.539
I think. And, uh, my friend was in a play
1439
01:03:21.579 --> 01:03:25.940
there that Joanne Woodward directed and, uh, Newman came, you know,
1440
01:03:25.960 --> 01:03:27.840
everyone was waiting. When's Paul going to come? And they
1441
01:03:27.880 --> 01:03:29.659
had the opening night and Paul shows up and he's
1442
01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:31.929
got a bud in his hand and he's wearing an
1443
01:03:32.070 --> 01:03:35.510
orange windbreaker and, you know, probably came from the track. And, and, uh,
1444
01:03:36.230 --> 01:03:39.309
and my friend said, uh, went up to him and said, hi, Mr. Woodward.
1445
01:03:39.349 --> 01:03:39.909
Nice to meet you.
1446
01:03:40.690 --> 01:03:41.590
Ha ha ha.
1447
01:03:42.460 --> 01:03:44.880
Joanne Woodward's still alive, by the way.
1448
01:03:45.119 --> 01:03:47.920
Yeah, but kind of gone, right?
1449
01:03:48.320 --> 01:03:49.019
Alzheimer's.
1450
01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:49.260
Yeah.
1451
01:03:49.940 --> 01:03:55.050
But, like, literally contracted it 15 years ago.
1452
01:03:55.070 --> 01:03:55.349
Right.
1453
01:03:55.489 --> 01:03:57.389
And is still alive.
1454
01:03:57.469 --> 01:03:58.590
Like, kind of crazy.
1455
01:03:58.710 --> 01:04:01.670
I can't imagine. I talked to his kids. Yeah.
1456
01:04:01.949 --> 01:04:02.710
And his daughters.
1457
01:04:02.829 --> 01:04:06.760
And they're over there every day, like, live next door.
1458
01:04:06.780 --> 01:04:08.420
Right. And it's just kind of.
1459
01:04:08.960 --> 01:04:09.480
Crazy.
1460
01:04:09.500 --> 01:04:11.400
I can't even, I can't even get my head around
1461
01:04:11.420 --> 01:04:13.739
what that's like, you know, to her, like, what is,
1462
01:04:13.860 --> 01:04:17.530
what is that existence with not, I mean, maybe it's,
1463
01:04:17.719 --> 01:04:19.730
maybe it's bliss. Maybe it's what we're talking about. Maybe
1464
01:04:19.750 --> 01:04:22.829
it's just pure bliss because you have no, you know, anxiety.
1465
01:04:22.849 --> 01:04:24.590
You probably don't have, well, you have anxiety, I think,
1466
01:04:24.650 --> 01:04:25.030
but you don't.
1467
01:04:25.190 --> 01:04:26.570
I don't know.
1468
01:04:26.670 --> 01:04:30.150
Maybe that feeling of orgasm or behind the race car
1469
01:04:30.190 --> 01:04:32.590
wheel or up on stage playing a lick.
1470
01:04:32.750 --> 01:04:33.130
I don't know.
1471
01:04:33.190 --> 01:04:37.090
Maybe it's a constant state of that. I look, I'd
1472
01:04:37.150 --> 01:04:40.570
wish that for anyone who felt that way, but it's
1473
01:04:41.590 --> 01:04:44.780
insane that she's still with us.
1474
01:04:45.500 --> 01:04:47.179
Yeah. I didn't even realize that, I guess.
1475
01:04:48.059 --> 01:04:50.559
I mean, you can look it up, Dawson, but I mean,
1476
01:04:50.639 --> 01:04:54.900
is Joanne Woodward, is she, you know, 95?
1477
01:04:54.900 --> 01:04:59.690
I mean, it's crazy. She's so talented too, man. I mean,
1478
01:04:59.710 --> 01:05:03.750
you get that from Ethan's doc, you get, how amazing
1479
01:05:03.829 --> 01:05:04.329
she was.
1480
01:05:04.510 --> 01:05:07.369
You also forget how Paul liked to drive race cars.
1481
01:05:07.769 --> 01:05:09.849
I know, I know.
1482
01:05:09.849 --> 01:05:09.909
96.
1483
01:05:09.889 --> 01:05:12.750
Yeah, she was real substantial. Dude, 96 years old?
1484
01:05:13.150 --> 01:05:13.389
Wow.
1485
01:05:13.429 --> 01:05:16.280
Got Alzheimer's when she was 79.
1486
01:05:16.280 --> 01:05:16.820
That's wild.
1487
01:05:16.860 --> 01:05:17.400
Or whatever.
1488
01:05:18.059 --> 01:05:18.719
That's wild.
1489
01:05:18.820 --> 01:05:22.019
All right, the plug, by the way, The Gray House,
1490
01:05:22.280 --> 01:05:24.360
it's out on Prime as we speak.
1491
01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:24.920
Very good.
1492
01:05:25.000 --> 01:05:26.360
I was watching it last night.
1493
01:05:27.340 --> 01:05:29.300
Where else can people go, Rob, if they want to
1494
01:05:29.610 --> 01:05:30.110
follow you?
1495
01:05:30.630 --> 01:05:32.730
Well, I'm all over social media, so I've got stuff
1496
01:05:32.789 --> 01:05:36.269
up there. And I'm on so many shows that are
1497
01:05:36.369 --> 01:05:39.670
actually on Amazon Prime. Billions is on there. Numbers is
1498
01:05:39.789 --> 01:05:46.420
on there. Northern Exposure is on there. What else I got?
1499
01:05:46.559 --> 01:05:50.639
Well, go to robmorrow.com for anything you want.
1500
01:05:50.780 --> 01:05:52.719
Sure. Good to see you, Rob. Yeah, man. Thanks for
1501
01:05:52.739 --> 01:05:53.019
having me.
1502
01:05:53.119 --> 01:05:53.579

01:08:22.380 --> 01:08:27.800
You use the word eucolic. Are you sure you barely
1537
01:08:27.840 --> 01:08:34.699
graduated high school? Your vocabulary, I don't know. I had
1538
01:08:34.720 --> 01:08:35.470
to look that word up.
1539
01:08:36.819 --> 01:08:39.699
Later. You can leave us a message at 888-634-1744.
1540
01:08:39.699 --> 01:08:41.020
Please don't be so droll.
1541
01:08:41.039 --> 01:08:42.239
Of course I swung a hammer.
1542
01:08:48.210 --> 01:08:49.609
On a construction site.
1543
01:08:50.630 --> 01:08:51.770
How pedantic of him.
1544
01:08:51.850 --> 01:08:52.300
Yes. Yeah.
1545
01:08:52.319 --> 01:09:01.720
Well, listen, I knew I was uneducated. and I knew
1546
01:09:01.739 --> 01:09:06.399
that when I got into comedy that I was at
1547
01:09:06.439 --> 01:09:11.699
a deficit because I was uneducated and I did not
1548
01:09:11.819 --> 01:09:16.909
know what a lot of things meant and wasn't familiar
1549
01:09:16.949 --> 01:09:21.819
with things. And I could remember... being on stage with
1550
01:09:22.659 --> 01:09:25.840
Groundlings people and Acme people, and.
1551
01:09:25.779 --> 01:09:28.060
Those are educated people. They all.
1552
01:09:29.619 --> 01:09:34.289
There were no blue-collar guys at the improv troupe sketch.
1553
01:09:34.569 --> 01:09:37.670
They were all sort of college, smart. They wrote, you know,
1554
01:09:37.710 --> 01:09:42.130
they spelled, they wrote, they read. I don't... Now, looking
1555
01:09:42.170 --> 01:09:44.829
back on it, I can't think of one blue-collary dude.
1556
01:09:45.270 --> 01:09:49.970
And so they would say things... on stage, like, oh,
1557
01:09:50.090 --> 01:09:52.600
I'm working on my topiary, you know, like that. And
1558
01:09:52.680 --> 01:09:55.960
I didn't know what a topiary was. And they, I
1559
01:09:56.420 --> 01:09:59.500
remember doing a scene where there were, I think we
1560
01:09:59.520 --> 01:10:01.359
were at a Briss and I was like, I don't
1561
01:10:01.399 --> 01:10:02.979
know what being, I don't know what that is.
1562
01:10:03.000 --> 01:10:03.880
I love that iced tea.
1563
01:10:04.180 --> 01:10:04.579
Yeah.
1564
01:10:05.239 --> 01:10:12.479
So I didn't, um, and so I realized like pretty quickly,
1565
01:10:12.500 --> 01:10:15.119
if I didn't catch myself up with some of the
1566
01:10:15.630 --> 01:10:19.909
vocabulary and just things in general, I I'm going to
1567
01:10:20.050 --> 01:10:22.859
be left behind out on stage because I'm going to
1568
01:10:22.880 --> 01:10:28.439
get caught not knowing things. So I made an effort
1569
01:10:28.699 --> 01:10:33.460
to try to teach myself things. So they didn't really
1570
01:10:33.520 --> 01:10:38.510
discover who I was, which is basically an uneducated blue-collar guy.
1571
01:10:38.930 --> 01:10:41.770
So I sort of overcompensated.
1572
01:10:41.829 --> 01:10:44.430
Yeah, there's some situations out there. Like I always think
1573
01:10:44.449 --> 01:10:47.170
of Days of Thunder. cold trickle when he's like, I
1574
01:10:47.170 --> 01:10:48.449
don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what
1575
01:10:48.489 --> 01:10:50.539
carburetors do. I don't know what any of this stuff is.
1576
01:10:50.560 --> 01:10:52.899
I don't know brake manifolds or whatever it is. Obviously,
1577
01:10:52.920 --> 01:10:55.739
that's not correct. But at some point, he goes, I
1578
01:10:55.760 --> 01:10:57.380
could just get in the car and I could drive.
1579
01:10:57.960 --> 01:10:59.939
And I like guys like that who don't know the
1580
01:11:00.010 --> 01:11:01.689
inner workings of what they're doing.
1581
01:11:01.729 --> 01:11:03.420
They can just go out there and they can do it.
1582
01:11:04.069 --> 01:11:05.909
Intake manifold exhaust.
1583
01:11:05.970 --> 01:11:06.909
There you go.
1584
01:11:06.930 --> 01:11:08.069
Yes, thank you.
1585
01:11:08.229 --> 01:11:12.729
And still, still to this day, master and slave cylinder.
1586
01:11:13.859 --> 01:11:14.560
The master.
1587
01:11:15.180 --> 01:11:18.880
tells the slave what to do. The master tells the
1588
01:11:18.939 --> 01:11:21.520
slave to engage or disengage the clutch.
1589
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:23.319
All right.
1590
01:11:23.920 --> 01:11:28.680
Speaking of that, I was thinking as we are recently
1591
01:11:28.720 --> 01:11:31.430
going back to the moon and just sort of how
1592
01:11:31.470 --> 01:11:35.430
pedestrian it is now to take off a spaceship.
1593
01:11:35.470 --> 01:11:35.729
Sure.
1594
01:11:36.189 --> 01:11:39.369
And then I started thinking about everything is just kind
1595
01:11:39.430 --> 01:11:43.050
of safe now. And the thrilling part of it is
1596
01:11:43.720 --> 01:11:46.140
You know, it's a spectacle, but it's not thrilling anymore
1597
01:11:46.180 --> 01:11:49.859
because the danger part of it has been removed ostensibly.
1598
01:11:50.720 --> 01:11:55.500
And then I thought going to the moon, which we
1599
01:11:55.579 --> 01:11:58.479
first went to or we first started launching, I don't know,
1600
01:11:58.510 --> 01:11:59.869
in Apollo, I don't.
1601
01:11:59.750 --> 01:12:00.770
Know, 67, 68, 69.
1602
01:12:00.770 --> 01:12:05.789
Maybe we go to the moon in 69. Anyway, I
1603
01:12:05.829 --> 01:12:09.810
was thinking like in terms of the danger and where
1604
01:12:09.850 --> 01:12:16.920
it is when we started, like in 69, let's say, 68, 69,
1605
01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:21.649
and then where it is now, which is pretty pedestrian, and,
1606
01:12:21.850 --> 01:12:26.029
you know, it's always dangerous, but it's much safer. The
1607
01:12:26.329 --> 01:12:33.189
course that that followed is the trajectory is exactly the
1608
01:12:33.229 --> 01:12:36.020
same as F1. F1 was hairy in 68, 69, lots
1609
01:12:36.029 --> 01:12:43.789
of deaths, fires. Safety wasn't really a priority. Going fast
1610
01:12:43.829 --> 01:12:48.029
was a priority. And it was a super scary, dicey,
1611
01:12:48.289 --> 01:12:54.350
dangerous sport in 69. And now it's safe, completely safe.
1612
01:12:54.489 --> 01:12:57.670
There's accidents. There's bad accidents. But it's totally safe. These
1613
01:12:57.729 --> 01:12:59.850
guys roll over and they come over the barriers and
1614
01:12:59.869 --> 01:13:01.069
they climb out of the car.
1615
01:13:01.270 --> 01:13:02.899
There are no fires. You know what I mean?
1616
01:13:03.260 --> 01:13:06.560
And it's the same thing. It's still, it's thrilling, but
1617
01:13:06.600 --> 01:13:10.390
it is missing that you could die element, which really
1618
01:13:10.470 --> 01:13:11.989
takes it to the next level.
1619
01:13:12.050 --> 01:13:12.869
Yeah. Yeah.
1620
01:13:12.909 --> 01:13:14.970
And a lot of technology and science, we've kind of
1621
01:13:15.050 --> 01:13:17.609
already hit the ceiling on a lot of things. Like
1622
01:13:17.729 --> 01:13:21.140
I know it's apples and oranges, but camera lenses, camera
1623
01:13:21.180 --> 01:13:23.640
bodies will continue to change and they'll continue to move.
1624
01:13:23.659 --> 01:13:27.460
But we kind of hit the threshold of camera lens technology.
1625
01:13:27.720 --> 01:13:29.520
You could buy a camera lens today and sell it
1626
01:13:29.539 --> 01:13:32.840
for the same exact amount, five years from now because
1627
01:13:32.859 --> 01:13:36.199
the technology doesn't move camera lenses will always be the
1628
01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:38.350
same but the bodies on the other hand those will
1629
01:13:38.369 --> 01:13:40.630
depreciate over time and it's kind of the same with
1630
01:13:40.649 --> 01:13:44.090
what you're saying with like racing and and space travel.
1631
01:13:44.369 --> 01:13:46.649
Yeah that's the gay version of what i sure.
1632
01:13:46.409 --> 01:13:48.649
Absolutely yeah absolutely but i don't i don't know shit
1633
01:13:48.670 --> 01:13:50.409
about space travel or cars so i gotta.
1634
01:13:50.649 --> 01:13:53.270
Relate to your brake manifold um.
1635
01:13:55.090 --> 01:13:56.050
So I don't know.
1636
01:13:56.229 --> 01:13:57.130
I'm amazed.
1637
01:13:57.289 --> 01:13:59.069
I don't know. I'm kind of amazed. Whatever.
1638
01:13:59.550 --> 01:14:02.390
You know, I hate Gavin Newsom, but I think I
1639
01:14:02.430 --> 01:14:07.409
hate his wife more. And she makes all her fucking
1640
01:14:07.529 --> 01:14:12.270
shitty films, the he-she confused about sexuality films, and then
1641
01:14:12.310 --> 01:14:14.380
they all waltz into Sundance.
1642
01:14:14.439 --> 01:14:16.600
And then I make all my films and nothing gets
1643
01:14:16.659 --> 01:14:17.279
into Sundance.
1644
01:14:17.720 --> 01:14:22.060
That's how it's played. But she's a ditz. And also
1645
01:14:22.180 --> 01:14:27.479
I'm kind of, I, it's interesting. Maybe I'm just seeing
1646
01:14:27.520 --> 01:14:33.029
it through my lens, but you can definitely, you Rudy, you, me,
1647
01:14:33.550 --> 01:14:37.689
you will know exactly what I'm talking about. I see
1648
01:14:37.890 --> 01:14:42.479
all these couples out there and like families out there.
1649
01:14:42.500 --> 01:14:45.800
And it's like Gavin Newsom's up there and he's like,
1650
01:14:45.840 --> 01:14:48.720
you know, We're not going to have true freedom until
1651
01:14:48.739 --> 01:14:52.189
the trans community is recognized and they get their own month.
1652
01:14:52.250 --> 01:14:54.989
And she's standing next to him going, not only that,
1653
01:14:55.069 --> 01:14:56.729
I wish it was a year. I wish we had
1654
01:14:56.770 --> 01:14:58.310
a year's recognition of trans people.
1655
01:14:58.329 --> 01:14:59.060
All right.
1656
01:14:59.399 --> 01:15:03.079
That's what they do. And then I'm sure everyone's on board.
1657
01:15:04.460 --> 01:15:04.880
Myself?
1658
01:15:06.489 --> 01:15:09.750
My mom, my dad, my grandma, any woman I've ever
1659
01:15:09.789 --> 01:15:10.989
been with has always been like.
1660
01:15:11.050 --> 01:15:11.710
Fuck that guy.
1661
01:15:11.729 --> 01:15:12.569
He don't speak for me.
1662
01:15:12.590 --> 01:15:16.979
That guy, I don't... Whatever he says, that ain't what
1663
01:15:17.060 --> 01:15:19.359
I'm thinking. I'll tell you that. I don't care if
1664
01:15:19.380 --> 01:15:21.619
it's COVID. I don't care if it's trans rights. I
1665
01:15:21.640 --> 01:15:24.989
don't care if it's the fucking border. Whatever that guy's saying...
1666
01:15:25.449 --> 01:15:26.970
Not that that's him.
1667
01:15:27.210 --> 01:15:27.750
Yeah.
1668
01:15:27.810 --> 01:15:30.649
Just because we're married or just because he's my son
1669
01:15:30.710 --> 01:15:32.229
or just because whatever.
1670
01:15:32.510 --> 01:15:33.970
Just because he's Sergeant Slaughter.
1671
01:15:33.989 --> 01:15:38.210
Do not think for fucking five minutes I share any
1672
01:15:38.229 --> 01:15:39.550
of that bullshit with that guy.
1673
01:15:39.590 --> 01:15:39.789
Yeah.
1674
01:15:39.810 --> 01:15:40.310
All right.
1675
01:15:40.609 --> 01:15:42.909
Where they get all these fucking people that are just
1676
01:15:43.170 --> 01:15:46.869
first off, they're both dopes, but they're lockstep and they're dopiness.
1677
01:15:46.989 --> 01:15:49.069
Yeah. Is it all an act?
1678
01:15:50.140 --> 01:15:52.380
It's got to be because I remember taking road trips
1679
01:15:52.439 --> 01:15:55.479
three hours from St. Cloud, Minnesota, back to Hibbing, Minnesota,
1680
01:15:55.560 --> 01:15:57.720
and all I did was watch my parents argue about everything.
1681
01:15:58.460 --> 01:15:59.439
It didn't matter what it was.
1682
01:16:00.739 --> 01:16:02.720
It wasn't like they got out of the car and went, hey,
1683
01:16:03.300 --> 01:16:04.020
remember Chris?
1684
01:16:04.340 --> 01:16:05.899
We're simpatico on this thing.
1685
01:16:05.920 --> 01:16:06.140
No, no, no.
1686
01:16:06.140 --> 01:16:08.260
All they did was argue. We went in the house.
1687
01:16:08.300 --> 01:16:08.819
They argued.
1688
01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:12.899
Everybody was completely 180 from everything, and it showed in
1689
01:16:12.960 --> 01:16:14.859
our relationships and the way that we handle each other
1690
01:16:14.960 --> 01:16:16.550
as you get older. And I don't know what it is.
1691
01:16:16.779 --> 01:16:18.579
I don't agree with anything that my girlfriend says. I
1692
01:16:18.600 --> 01:16:19.659
don't know why you'd want to.
1693
01:16:20.020 --> 01:16:24.850
Yeah, well, you certainly wouldn't get the ringing endorsement that Jennifer,
1694
01:16:24.890 --> 01:16:28.649
we'll watch the clip of her, but it's also, I
1695
01:16:31.270 --> 01:16:37.050
really wonder, she's at Wisdom 2.0, the conference giving, talking.
1696
01:16:37.210 --> 01:16:40.069
By the way, you know the sad part about these things?
1697
01:16:40.729 --> 01:16:43.260
Crowds gather to hear what she has to say.
1698
01:16:43.319 --> 01:16:45.180
All right, let's hear what she has to say.
1699
01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:50.210
My son's, are really into sports are some of my girls,
1700
01:16:50.670 --> 01:16:55.300
but my sons will watch their favorite athletes on YouTube or,
1701
01:16:56.039 --> 01:16:59.239
and then all of a sudden you'll, you'll find this
1702
01:16:59.300 --> 01:17:05.600
sort of alt-right extreme, you know, Jordan Peterson type speaking
1703
01:17:05.640 --> 01:17:06.350
to my sons.
1704
01:17:06.359 --> 01:17:06.520
Right.
1705
01:17:06.979 --> 01:17:10.050
It's insane. Connected to the sports culture.
1706
01:17:10.390 --> 01:17:11.369
That's not healthy.
1707
01:17:11.489 --> 01:17:12.069
Are you kidding?
1708
01:17:12.310 --> 01:17:17.449
So then our boys are learning hate, bigotry, misogyny, racism.
1709
01:17:17.829 --> 01:17:19.770
So it's very dangerous.
1710
01:17:19.829 --> 01:17:21.390
And I think we have to take responsibility.
1711
01:17:22.430 --> 01:17:25.289
Jordan Peterson type, like a Canadian professor.
1712
01:17:25.689 --> 01:17:28.829
Who does nothing but just spew out, I don't know,
1713
01:17:29.090 --> 01:17:30.109
correct data.
1714
01:17:30.289 --> 01:17:31.399
Well, correct information.
1715
01:17:31.409 --> 01:17:33.880
He talks about the Bible and history and stuff like that.
1716
01:17:33.899 --> 01:17:37.539
That's what you're worried about your son finding out. about
1717
01:17:38.079 --> 01:17:45.239
David and Josiah. And here's what I realized, but it
1718
01:17:45.270 --> 01:17:49.489
drives me nuts, but it's that thing. It's all back
1719
01:17:49.529 --> 01:17:51.989
to that Rob Reiner clip I always play for you
1720
01:17:52.010 --> 01:17:54.470
guys on Bill Maher. It's like, well, come on, Rob,
1721
01:17:54.489 --> 01:17:56.569
you don't know that Hunter Biden's laptop?
1722
01:17:56.649 --> 01:17:58.409
I don't know. Do you know? I don't know. You
1723
01:17:58.430 --> 01:17:58.710
don't know.
1724
01:17:59.310 --> 01:18:02.199
But, Rob, you got to go out and get information.
1725
01:18:02.239 --> 01:18:05.479
And I get information other places. You didn't know this?
1726
01:18:05.640 --> 01:18:06.380
I watch Biden.
1727
01:18:07.489 --> 01:18:10.000
You have no idea who Jordan Peterson is, bitch. You
1728
01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:17.039
have no fucking idea. First off, he's intellectually... Intellectually, he
1729
01:18:17.100 --> 01:18:17.720
would be a.
1730
01:18:19.579 --> 01:18:20.100
Zeppelin.
1731
01:18:20.460 --> 01:18:23.090
He would be the Hindenburg, and you would be a
1732
01:18:23.100 --> 01:18:26.890
little Mylar balloon that says, Get Well, Nana, on it
1733
01:18:26.930 --> 01:18:30.850
that's stuck in power wires. That's who you are intellectually.
1734
01:18:31.489 --> 01:18:36.270
He is so much greater than you intellectually. But also...
1735
01:18:36.529 --> 01:18:41.500
Just basically saying hate merchant, misogynist. You have no fucking
1736
01:18:41.640 --> 01:18:44.479
idea who this guy is. And it's also weird that
1737
01:18:44.520 --> 01:18:48.310
you do this because I would never do that to
1738
01:18:48.390 --> 01:18:49.550
somebody on the left.
1739
01:18:49.729 --> 01:18:49.890
Yeah.
1740
01:18:50.050 --> 01:18:52.010
I wouldn't, you know, I don't get up, like I
1741
01:18:52.029 --> 01:18:57.689
would go, when you think about people you disagree with,
1742
01:18:57.789 --> 01:19:05.109
let's just say you take somebody like John Leguizamo, very
1743
01:19:05.149 --> 01:19:05.720
hard left.
1744
01:19:06.189 --> 01:19:06.489
Okay.
1745
01:19:06.680 --> 01:19:09.479
I would go, I don't agree with the guy's politics.
1746
01:19:12.109 --> 01:19:15.039
Is he a misogynist? Is he racist?
1747
01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:15.720
I don't know.
1748
01:19:15.859 --> 01:19:18.680
I'm sure he isn't. Why would he be?
1749
01:19:18.800 --> 01:19:19.180
I don't know.
1750
01:19:19.420 --> 01:19:22.880
I disagree with this. I'm just disagreeing with him.
1751
01:19:23.119 --> 01:19:23.520
I don't know.
1752
01:19:23.579 --> 01:19:25.699
He probably treats his wife very well, and he loves
1753
01:19:25.760 --> 01:19:30.670
his kids, and I don't think he's racist. But why
1754
01:19:30.750 --> 01:19:33.670
doesn't anyone get to know? And I'll tell you, for me,
1755
01:19:33.729 --> 01:19:37.130
the reason I sound this way, Is because I get
1756
01:19:37.229 --> 01:19:42.569
to know these people. I know the, sorry, the Dennis
1757
01:19:42.609 --> 01:19:45.149
Prager's well, or the Jordan Peterson's or the Ben Shapiro's.
1758
01:19:45.270 --> 01:19:47.310
I get to know these people and they're nothing of
1759
01:19:47.350 --> 01:19:50.430
the sort. There's nothing even close to this.
1760
01:19:50.689 --> 01:19:50.930
Yeah.
1761
01:19:51.479 --> 01:19:55.600
And also the fucking balls. of you just going out
1762
01:19:55.659 --> 01:19:58.739
there and just yelling the shit into a microphone. You're
1763
01:19:58.800 --> 01:20:03.000
slandering people. You're calling them the worst thing you can
1764
01:20:03.100 --> 01:20:05.720
call them, and you have no history with them, and
1765
01:20:05.739 --> 01:20:07.020
you've never seen one of their videos.
1766
01:20:07.140 --> 01:20:10.159
Also, Jordan Peterson, when that guy first started making the rounds,
1767
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:11.880
everybody was on board with it.
1768
01:20:12.340 --> 01:20:12.779
But then the.
1769
01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:16.310
Right started sharing a few of his clips and people
1770
01:20:16.369 --> 01:20:19.130
on the right started having him on their podcast. And
1771
01:20:19.170 --> 01:20:22.899
now all of a sudden he becomes this mouthpiece for hatred.
1772
01:20:23.199 --> 01:20:24.739
How?
1773
01:20:24.779 --> 01:20:25.539
He's never wavered.
1774
01:20:25.579 --> 01:20:28.699
And even stuff that doesn't line up with right values,
1775
01:20:28.939 --> 01:20:30.479
he still goes, yeah, but these are the facts.
1776
01:20:30.819 --> 01:20:34.970
He's a Canadian professor who was basically told to use pronouns,
1777
01:20:35.090 --> 01:20:38.569
and he was like, fuck that. And because it's Canada,
1778
01:20:39.270 --> 01:20:43.539
Canada is basically California in five years. They wanted to
1779
01:20:43.579 --> 01:20:45.520
punish him because of his thoughts.
1780
01:20:46.460 --> 01:20:50.149
Okay. Anyway, Jesus Christ. She is fucking worse than he is.
1781
01:20:50.500 --> 01:20:51.399
All right, what's in the news?
1782
01:20:51.600 --> 01:20:54.510
All right, so former Saturday Night Live star Leslie Jones
1783
01:20:54.520 --> 01:20:55.229
was slammed online.
1784
01:20:55.250 --> 01:20:57.550
You can't say star. You cannot.
1785
01:20:57.710 --> 01:20:59.970
What do you think is the correct, what shall we
1786
01:21:00.010 --> 01:21:01.970
call her? What is her pronoun here when it comes
1787
01:21:02.010 --> 01:21:02.569
to SNL?
1788
01:21:02.630 --> 01:21:09.609
Alum? Even that's lofty for her because she did nothing
1789
01:21:09.890 --> 01:21:12.970
on SNL except for butcher short bits of dialogue.
1790
01:21:13.350 --> 01:21:16.380
You once called her the unfunny black dude on Saturday.
1791
01:21:16.439 --> 01:21:23.279
No, I was doing, sorry. I was doing a roast.
1792
01:21:23.760 --> 01:21:27.279
I think it was a Baldwin roast. And it was
1793
01:21:27.970 --> 01:21:28.949
was a Chris Redd.
1794
01:21:29.949 --> 01:21:30.510
Oh, sure. Yeah.
1795
01:21:30.529 --> 01:21:31.210
Former SNL.
1796
01:21:31.310 --> 01:21:31.649
Yeah.
1797
01:21:32.430 --> 01:21:35.630
And and this is Leslie Jones.
1798
01:21:35.689 --> 01:21:35.850
Right.
1799
01:21:35.909 --> 01:21:38.770
So I said Chris Redd was on the dais with us.
1800
01:21:38.869 --> 01:21:39.489
And I said.
1801
01:21:42.060 --> 01:21:47.840
When I heard the unfunny black dude got fired from SNL,
1802
01:21:48.720 --> 01:21:49.420
I thought.
1803
01:21:49.960 --> 01:21:52.960
It was Leslie Jones. I didn't know it was you, Chris.
1804
01:21:53.000 --> 01:21:54.300
So that was crazy.
1805
01:21:54.380 --> 01:21:56.539
I love that one.
1806
01:21:56.739 --> 01:21:59.420
That is a kind of funny joke, right? Because it's
1807
01:21:59.460 --> 01:22:01.619
always good to roast other people up there.
1808
01:22:01.640 --> 01:22:02.189
Yeah.
1809
01:22:02.859 --> 01:22:03.060
Yeah.
1810
01:22:03.100 --> 01:22:05.390
Just a little bit of like, you know, friendly fire. Well,
1811
01:22:05.409 --> 01:22:06.270
the best is.
1812
01:22:06.250 --> 01:22:08.789
When you can roast. I made fun of both of
1813
01:22:08.850 --> 01:22:10.789
them in one joke.
1814
01:22:11.010 --> 01:22:11.229
Yeah.
1815
01:22:11.369 --> 01:22:15.579
She's not. I don't know if it's a DEI hire
1816
01:22:15.600 --> 01:22:18.859
or whatever. She is no, her stand of comedy is
1817
01:22:18.920 --> 01:22:23.359
wash my ass, basically. And then her stand, I don't know.
1818
01:22:23.619 --> 01:22:28.310
You find the bit that she was good on on SNL.
1819
01:22:28.329 --> 01:22:31.390
But anyway, all right, we'll play the clip.
1820
01:22:32.210 --> 01:22:34.029
I think marriage is legalized slavery.
1821
01:22:34.430 --> 01:22:34.949
You do?
1822
01:22:35.130 --> 01:22:35.569
Yes, I do.
1823
01:22:35.590 --> 01:22:38.250
Say more, because if I'm thinking about slavery and I'm
1824
01:22:38.270 --> 01:22:40.909
thinking about marriage, there are two different images that come.
1825
01:22:40.630 --> 01:22:41.090
Into my head.
1826
01:22:41.130 --> 01:22:43.390
Absolutely not. I don't think, I don't know how you don't.
1827
01:22:44.350 --> 01:22:46.970
Man is, especially if he's expecting you to be a
1828
01:22:46.989 --> 01:22:49.149
trad wife, he might as well pull out a whip
1829
01:22:51.130 --> 01:22:51.649
and a chain.
1830
01:22:51.939 --> 01:22:52.489
Jesus.
1831
01:22:52.520 --> 01:22:53.560
All right.
1832
01:22:53.739 --> 01:22:54.899
She's fucking dumb.
1833
01:22:55.220 --> 01:22:57.380
I mean, she's dumb. She's a dumb person.
1834
01:22:57.439 --> 01:22:58.600
Now, what is trag?
1835
01:22:58.720 --> 01:22:59.979
And I know it's a new one.
1836
01:23:00.619 --> 01:23:01.500
So it's trad.
1837
01:23:01.859 --> 01:23:02.739
Trad.
1838
01:23:02.840 --> 01:23:04.319
Which is traditional wife.
1839
01:23:04.859 --> 01:23:05.619
A trad wife.
1840
01:23:05.729 --> 01:23:06.010
Okay.
1841
01:23:06.289 --> 01:23:07.109
Oh, okay.
1842
01:23:07.210 --> 01:23:11.289
First things first. Do we need to shorten everything?
1843
01:23:11.529 --> 01:23:11.789
No. No.
1844
01:23:12.829 --> 01:23:14.949
I got time for you to say all of traditional.
1845
01:23:15.590 --> 01:23:18.210
Um, okay.
1846
01:23:18.590 --> 01:23:25.270
Traditional wives, I would argue percentage wise, traditional wives are
1847
01:23:25.310 --> 01:23:28.609
happier than whatever version we're trying to shit out. Now
1848
01:23:28.649 --> 01:23:30.550
we're telling them they don't need kids and they need
1849
01:23:30.590 --> 01:23:32.909
to work and someone else can cook the meals and
1850
01:23:32.930 --> 01:23:35.789
they should call grub hub and all women are fucking
1851
01:23:35.829 --> 01:23:37.789
going nuts. I don't know if you noticed it lately
1852
01:23:37.850 --> 01:23:42.760
because we've taken them away from tradition. Um, I don't
1853
01:23:43.010 --> 01:23:46.329
get this thing. It used to happen to me in
1854
01:23:46.369 --> 01:23:50.630
my marriage. I would sort of be open, which is, look,
1855
01:23:50.850 --> 01:23:54.090
I'm going to work all the time and provide you
1856
01:23:54.109 --> 01:23:57.210
with tons of money, but you got to go shopping
1857
01:23:57.250 --> 01:23:59.390
and then you got to cook the whatever. And it
1858
01:23:59.430 --> 01:24:01.310
was always like, I don't get why we have a
1859
01:24:01.350 --> 01:24:04.119
full-time nanny and a cleaning crew. Why do we have
1860
01:24:04.159 --> 01:24:06.800
a cleaning crew? Just you're, you don't have a job.
1861
01:24:06.840 --> 01:24:07.520
You can clean her.
1862
01:24:07.760 --> 01:24:09.539
And if you said any of that shit out loud,
1863
01:24:09.579 --> 01:24:12.140
I was like, Oh, caveman Corolla's coming in here with
1864
01:24:12.199 --> 01:24:15.359
his club. And it's like, Fuck you. Number one, you
1865
01:24:15.380 --> 01:24:18.000
go on the fucking road every weekend. How about that?
1866
01:24:18.380 --> 01:24:21.560
You fucking fly Southwest. You go make a shitload of money,
1867
01:24:21.819 --> 01:24:24.060
and then I'll stay home and kick ass. But you're
1868
01:24:24.090 --> 01:24:25.590
not capable of doing that.
1869
01:24:25.850 --> 01:24:26.670
Well, I am.
1870
01:24:27.510 --> 01:24:29.189
And by the way, the reason you're miserable is because
1871
01:24:29.210 --> 01:24:30.750
you fucking sit around all day.
1872
01:24:30.850 --> 01:24:32.930
Get fucking busy. Do the things.
1873
01:24:33.050 --> 01:24:37.850
And I'm fine with traditional roles. But if you'd like
1874
01:24:37.890 --> 01:24:41.439
to flip... The roles, and then you can work your
1875
01:24:41.520 --> 01:24:43.560
fucking ass off and make a ton of money.
1876
01:24:43.859 --> 01:24:46.270
I will happily stay home and take care of business.
1877
01:24:46.689 --> 01:24:51.569
Any guy would be totally cool with two incomes, one household,
1878
01:24:51.689 --> 01:24:54.199
and everything be split down the middle. Now, in some cases,
1879
01:24:54.220 --> 01:24:55.699
you have guys and girls who can go out there
1880
01:24:55.720 --> 01:24:56.859
and make a ton of dough and then come back.
1881
01:24:56.880 --> 01:24:59.859
I mean, I look at Kelly Clarkson, and her husband,
1882
01:25:00.060 --> 01:25:01.579
he basically took her to the cleaners.
1883
01:25:01.640 --> 01:25:02.439
Good for him.
1884
01:25:02.539 --> 01:25:04.260
Although I hate to say it, he's a piece of shit.
1885
01:25:04.319 --> 01:25:08.359
Absolutely, yes. It's nice having it swing back the other way.
1886
01:25:09.100 --> 01:25:13.479
Chime. Chime is changing the way people bank because it's
1887
01:25:13.590 --> 01:25:19.050

Pay never.
1913
01:27:01.310 --> 01:27:07.310
But listen, I'm sensitive to this because the only working
1914
01:27:07.630 --> 01:27:11.810
couple I ever experienced was my grandparents. My grandmother worked full-time.
1915
01:27:11.829 --> 01:27:15.949
My grandfather stayed at home. And he dutifully cooked and
1916
01:27:16.090 --> 01:27:20.050
cleaned and, like, fixed sprinklers. And there was no such
1917
01:27:20.109 --> 01:27:22.449
thing as takeout. And there would have been no such
1918
01:27:22.510 --> 01:27:25.109
thing as him calling my grandma and going, on the
1919
01:27:25.170 --> 01:27:27.010
way home, could you pick up some Thai food? I'm
1920
01:27:27.510 --> 01:27:30.819
in the mood for Thai. It didn't fucking exist. Here's
1921
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:34.739
what I'm saying. If everyone wants to work, then everyone
1922
01:27:34.779 --> 01:27:37.760
should work and we'll have our dual income and then
1923
01:27:37.779 --> 01:27:41.159
we'll get a maid and we'll bring home fast food
1924
01:27:41.199 --> 01:27:42.989
or take out because we're both at work all day.
1925
01:27:43.270 --> 01:27:43.470
Fine.
1926
01:27:43.510 --> 01:27:44.130
We can do it that way.
1927
01:27:44.590 --> 01:27:48.130
Or you can go out and be a super successful lawyer.
1928
01:27:48.430 --> 01:27:51.420
I'll fucking sit around the house all day. But then
1929
01:27:51.460 --> 01:27:54.010
it'll be on me to make the food and clean
1930
01:27:54.020 --> 01:27:56.670
the shit. We shouldn't be spending your money on cleaning
1931
01:27:56.770 --> 01:28:00.069
services or takeout food or any of that shit. I'll
1932
01:28:00.090 --> 01:28:04.569
handle that. Or I'll go out and you can fucking
1933
01:28:04.829 --> 01:28:07.789
do that. There is no version where you go out
1934
01:28:07.930 --> 01:28:10.430
and you're a super successful lawyer and I hang around
1935
01:28:10.489 --> 01:28:12.390
all day and talk shit about you to my fucking
1936
01:28:12.449 --> 01:28:15.439
friends where I'm not considered a lazy piece of shit.
1937
01:28:16.260 --> 01:28:18.340
Why are you not a lazy piece of shit when
1938
01:28:18.380 --> 01:28:19.859
you do this? And then why am I a piece
1939
01:28:19.899 --> 01:28:21.000
of shit if I get to bring it up?
1940
01:28:21.119 --> 01:28:21.359
Yeah.
1941
01:28:21.960 --> 01:28:22.600
Yeah.
1942
01:28:23.020 --> 01:28:25.399
It's amazing how many times you go to a couple's
1943
01:28:25.460 --> 01:28:28.239
therapist and one of the biggest gripes that men will
1944
01:28:28.300 --> 01:28:30.140
have when it comes to their wives is I go out,
1945
01:28:30.180 --> 01:28:31.970
I make the money, I come home, everything is still
1946
01:28:32.020 --> 01:28:32.319
a mess.
1947
01:28:32.689 --> 01:28:34.710
Nothing is taken care of. Can we please try to
1948
01:28:34.770 --> 01:28:35.229
figure it out?
1949
01:28:35.569 --> 01:28:37.909
And there's always a little bit of pushback from the
1950
01:28:37.949 --> 01:28:38.710
therapist who goes.
1951
01:28:39.109 --> 01:28:39.970
Well, maybe there's a compromise.
1952
01:28:40.470 --> 01:28:40.810
In the middle.
1953
01:28:40.869 --> 01:28:42.090
No, there is no compromise.
1954
01:28:42.109 --> 01:28:44.329
The compromise is I bring home all the money, get
1955
01:28:44.350 --> 01:28:46.350
some shit done. So I come home at five o'clock.
1956
01:28:46.489 --> 01:28:48.720
Everybody is able to just enjoy the rest of our
1957
01:28:48.800 --> 01:28:51.340
evening together. That would be a perfect world, would it not?
1958
01:28:51.979 --> 01:28:54.699
I had a therapist once when I was begging my
1959
01:28:54.760 --> 01:28:58.180
ex-wife to buy healthy food and protein and stop with
1960
01:28:58.199 --> 01:29:00.779
the fucking pizzas and the pastas and all the bullshit.
1961
01:29:01.699 --> 01:29:04.300
And I just kept saying, just, you know, make them
1962
01:29:04.420 --> 01:29:08.229
eggs in the morning and stop with Vinnie Tortorich. Be like,
1963
01:29:08.270 --> 01:29:10.060
you got to get on the protein. You got there
1964
01:29:10.119 --> 01:29:13.189
eating too much junk and frozen food and stuff. And
1965
01:29:13.229 --> 01:29:15.869
then at some point I was like, spend all the
1966
01:29:15.909 --> 01:29:18.569
money you want. Just get the good stuff. Get the
1967
01:29:18.609 --> 01:29:20.829
good meats. Get the good cheese. Get the good protein
1968
01:29:20.850 --> 01:29:24.850
or whatever. And then at some point, the therapist said, well,
1969
01:29:24.869 --> 01:29:27.390
you know, if Adam wants this so bad, then he
1970
01:29:27.430 --> 01:29:30.310
should take the kids out shopping. And I'm like, or
1971
01:29:30.350 --> 01:29:32.609
you could just fucking get the shit Vinny told you
1972
01:29:32.649 --> 01:29:35.489
to buy with my money and come home. Why do
1973
01:29:35.569 --> 01:29:36.829
I got, I'm fucking working.
1974
01:29:37.050 --> 01:29:37.409
Yeah.
1975
01:29:38.670 --> 01:29:41.850
I'll tell you what it is. It's cheese. Don't get
1976
01:29:41.869 --> 01:29:45.529
the Hot Pockets. Don't get the toaster pastry. It's super straightforward.
1977
01:29:45.550 --> 01:29:48.149
So we are fucking nuts. This is why our society
1978
01:29:48.170 --> 01:29:50.550
is falling apart. And here's the deal.
1979
01:29:51.210 --> 01:29:51.989
For anybody.
1980
01:29:53.750 --> 01:29:58.250
If one person is working and providing all of the money,
1981
01:29:58.930 --> 01:30:05.680
they are allowed to have requests and ask for things. Listen,
1982
01:30:06.000 --> 01:30:10.659
Daphne's in the next room. I pay her. I get
1983
01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:13.159
to leave this studio and I get to walk over
1984
01:30:13.180 --> 01:30:16.659
there and I get to go, Daphne, we're going to
1985
01:30:16.699 --> 01:30:20.109
write an email to so-and-so or I need you to
1986
01:30:20.170 --> 01:30:21.000
pick something up.
1987
01:30:21.329 --> 01:30:23.229
Pick up my dry clean. I'm allowed to do it.
1988
01:30:24.170 --> 01:30:27.229
If I don't pay her, then I'm not allowed to
1989
01:30:27.300 --> 01:30:30.520
tell her what to do. We have a relationship. I
1990
01:30:30.539 --> 01:30:33.960
fucking pay her. So for this period of time, she
1991
01:30:34.079 --> 01:30:37.399
listens and does what I ask her to do. That's
1992
01:30:37.460 --> 01:30:38.260
our relationship.
1993
01:30:39.140 --> 01:30:39.720
If she was.
1994
01:30:39.659 --> 01:30:42.819
Paying me, then no, I couldn't tell her what to do.
1995
01:30:43.039 --> 01:30:45.180
And if I paid her nothing, I still couldn't tell
1996
01:30:45.220 --> 01:30:47.939
her what to do. So if you're going out and
1997
01:30:47.960 --> 01:30:51.829
you're busting your hump and you're working and then you
1998
01:30:51.890 --> 01:30:56.390
should expect X amount of work while we're gone. And
1999
01:30:56.609 --> 01:31:01.029
like I said, my grandfather honored that code. He said,
2000
01:31:02.020 --> 01:31:05.300
she's contributing. I must contribute. And I'm not going to
2001
01:31:05.340 --> 01:31:09.859
contribute by spending her money on a cleaning crew. I'll
2002
01:31:09.920 --> 01:31:13.680
clean myself. And it was understood. And all you have
2003
01:31:13.699 --> 01:31:15.260
to do is flip the script and have the guy
2004
01:31:15.279 --> 01:31:17.680
be the one that stays home. with a full-time nanny,
2005
01:31:17.779 --> 01:31:19.340
and then you'll realize that guy's a piece of shit.
2006
01:31:19.859 --> 01:31:21.479
That's the math.
2007
01:31:21.619 --> 01:31:23.979
Ask any dad who ever pays for their kid's car.
2008
01:31:24.579 --> 01:31:27.220
When he pays a monthly stipend every single month, he
2009
01:31:27.260 --> 01:31:30.060
makes that payment. When he hangs that over their kid's
2010
01:31:30.159 --> 01:31:33.050
head saying, hey, I need you to get this done
2011
01:31:33.270 --> 01:31:35.390
or there's no more car, how many times does the
2012
01:31:35.409 --> 01:31:37.970
wife come back and say, you can't do that to them.
2013
01:31:37.989 --> 01:31:38.750
That's not fair.
2014
01:31:38.789 --> 01:31:40.930
No, I'm the guy paying for it. Of course I can.
2015
01:31:40.949 --> 01:31:42.430
That's why I do it.
2016
01:31:42.470 --> 01:31:46.300
By the way, There's no woman who would ever put
2017
01:31:46.399 --> 01:31:49.079
up with that relationship. You fucking go out work all
2018
01:31:49.159 --> 01:31:50.960
day and weekends and stuff, and then you just come
2019
01:31:51.000 --> 01:31:53.020
home and go, make yourself dinner. I didn't do it
2020
01:31:53.079 --> 01:31:54.880
or I didn't feel like it. Are you fucking nuts?
2021
01:31:54.960 --> 01:31:55.119
Yeah.
2022
01:31:55.140 --> 01:31:56.140
They wouldn't put up with it.
2023
01:31:56.199 --> 01:31:58.539
There's a great scene in Mad Men with Jon Hamm
2024
01:31:58.560 --> 01:32:00.479
where I think it's his secretary has given him some
2025
01:32:00.539 --> 01:32:02.800
heat and says something like, you know, I do all
2026
01:32:02.840 --> 01:32:04.500
this stuff for you. And he goes, and then I
2027
01:32:04.560 --> 01:32:07.560
pay you money. And she says, well, you never say
2028
01:32:07.659 --> 01:32:11.189
thank you. And his response is, that's what the money is.
2029
01:32:11.319 --> 01:32:11.470
Right.
2030
01:32:11.600 --> 01:32:13.869
It's my thank you for doing the thing I asked
2031
01:32:13.890 --> 01:32:14.430
you to do.
2032
01:32:14.750 --> 01:32:18.689
So anyway, Leslie Jones, unfunny, dumb, and who knows. And
2033
01:32:18.750 --> 01:32:22.720
about black people, everything's slavery. I know for you guys,
2034
01:32:22.760 --> 01:32:28.350
but that's a weird one. And it worked. It worked
2035
01:32:28.369 --> 01:32:31.930
for Time Memorial about the wife cooks and cleans, and
2036
01:32:31.949 --> 01:32:33.989
the wives are happier, and the kids are fucking happier.
2037
01:32:34.170 --> 01:32:37.909
It's a better life, everyone, so sorry, tough shit. But now,
2038
01:32:38.569 --> 01:32:40.729
fucking go out, don't have kids, and work your ass
2039
01:32:40.770 --> 01:32:41.069
to death.
2040
01:32:41.090 --> 01:32:41.590
Fine.
2041
01:32:42.409 --> 01:32:45.689
Four suspects were busted after Baldwin Park Police uncovered a
2042
01:32:45.850 --> 01:32:51.800
staggering half a million dollar plus cash of stolen catalytic
2043
01:32:51.819 --> 01:32:56.199
converters and a massive Norwalk takedown. capping a month-long probe
2044
01:32:56.300 --> 01:32:59.479
launched amid a surge of thefts across Los Angeles.
2045
01:32:59.539 --> 01:33:00.560
Look at that thing, huh?
2046
01:33:00.729 --> 01:33:03.609
I'm going to say this, $ 500, 000 worth of thing. If
2047
01:33:03.630 --> 01:33:11.489
there is one Japanese guy, Jewish guy, or white guy
2048
01:33:11.550 --> 01:33:15.210
involved with this operation, I will apologize to every single
2049
01:33:15.250 --> 01:33:19.890
community because I can tell you that it's literally impossible.
2050
01:33:19.909 --> 01:33:24.029
I don't care if they busted 200,000 people. There would
2051
01:33:24.090 --> 01:33:28.189
not be one Japanese guy. There would not be one Jew.
2052
01:33:29.109 --> 01:33:30.789
And we're not even going to find a black guy
2053
01:33:30.970 --> 01:33:31.729
in this crew.
2054
01:33:32.250 --> 01:33:32.449
No.
2055
01:33:32.569 --> 01:33:33.600
Or a white guy.
2056
01:33:34.029 --> 01:33:35.590
Well, did you see the picture right there, Andrew? Can
2057
01:33:35.609 --> 01:33:37.359
you put that back up? Did you see the photo
2058
01:33:37.760 --> 01:33:39.800
of the lady in the top? Yeah.
2059
01:33:39.840 --> 01:33:43.039
So you got the blonde lady of a certain stature.
2060
01:33:43.060 --> 01:33:47.199
Well, you say blonde, but I'm going to go Hispanic
2061
01:33:47.279 --> 01:33:48.250
with the dyed blonde.
2062
01:33:48.270 --> 01:33:49.489
With the dyed blonde?
2063
01:33:49.789 --> 01:33:50.470
Okay.
2064
01:33:51.470 --> 01:33:55.300
I'm going to say you go top left. I know
2065
01:33:55.340 --> 01:33:57.479
Hispanic ladies with dyed hair.
2066
01:33:58.500 --> 01:34:00.840
The tight yoga pants and flat shoes.
2067
01:34:00.890 --> 01:34:02.409
That ain't Morgan Fairchild.
2068
01:34:02.430 --> 01:34:03.270
Okay. All right.
2069
01:34:03.310 --> 01:34:05.069
So I'm going to go. I don't know if you
2070
01:34:05.109 --> 01:34:07.729
can blow it up, but it's going to be one
2071
01:34:07.890 --> 01:34:11.760
big Alvarez Street because this is their turf.
2072
01:34:12.020 --> 01:34:13.140
Yeah. Yeah.
2073
01:34:13.180 --> 01:34:13.460
Wow.
2074
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:18.859
So I'm so confused with the catalytic converter stuff because
2075
01:34:18.880 --> 01:34:20.720
I come from a land where this doesn't happen all
2076
01:34:20.760 --> 01:34:23.479
the time. But what do these guys do with this?
2077
01:34:23.520 --> 01:34:25.850
They steal the catalytic converter and then they turn it in?
2078
01:34:25.930 --> 01:34:27.359
I mean, how?
2079
01:34:27.739 --> 01:34:32.810
They have– well, first off, L.A. is one big black
2080
01:34:32.930 --> 01:34:36.050
market now. We let it turn into a black market
2081
01:34:36.069 --> 01:34:38.090
because we just opened the borders and.
2082
01:34:38.310 --> 01:34:40.050
This is what they do in Mexico.
2083
01:34:40.270 --> 01:34:45.779
So it's all cartel-y stuff. And it's all the heavy
2084
01:34:45.840 --> 01:34:48.920
metals that are in there, in the catalytic converters. And
2085
01:34:49.020 --> 01:34:52.359
I don't think they resell the catalytic converters. They sell
2086
01:34:52.420 --> 01:34:57.859
the metals in them. So you do realize that Los Angeles,
2087
01:34:59.180 --> 01:35:02.199
we steal copper from the wires.
2088
01:35:02.239 --> 01:35:03.220
I got a story about that.
2089
01:35:03.260 --> 01:35:03.579
Yes.
2090
01:35:03.659 --> 01:35:08.939
Yep. You got another story about telecom wire. We're pulling,
2091
01:35:08.979 --> 01:35:11.149
and you can look it up, Dawson, but we're pulling
2092
01:35:11.189 --> 01:35:12.770
the metals out of there.
2093
01:35:13.270 --> 01:35:14.989
We are stealing elements.
2094
01:35:15.630 --> 01:35:19.289
Now, we're at the point where we're not stealing car
2095
01:35:19.369 --> 01:35:26.250
stereos or big panel TVs. We're stealing things on periodic charts.
2096
01:35:26.489 --> 01:35:26.609
Mm-hmm.
2097
01:35:28.829 --> 01:35:36.149
Rare earth black market. Yeah. It's rare earth black market stage.
2098
01:35:36.170 --> 01:35:36.270
Wow.
2099
01:35:36.289 --> 01:35:38.470
I don't know why it says stage on there. But anyway,
2100
01:35:38.489 --> 01:35:42.600
that's right. So you do realize in L.A. we're stealing
2101
01:35:43.029 --> 01:35:48.100
minerals now. And once in a while– oh, we're at
2102
01:35:48.119 --> 01:35:48.600
that stage.
2103
01:35:48.640 --> 01:35:49.920
Sorry. Let me print it out.
2104
01:35:50.279 --> 01:35:52.979
Once in a while we break it up by stealing
2105
01:35:53.000 --> 01:35:53.680
someone's pet.
2106
01:35:53.699 --> 01:35:56.170
Right. We're stealing dogs.
2107
01:35:56.250 --> 01:35:57.670
Yeah, Lady Gaga's dogs.
2108
01:35:57.689 --> 01:36:01.880
We're stealing cable and dogs. It used to be wallets.
2109
01:36:02.460 --> 01:36:02.779
Yeah.
2110
01:36:02.960 --> 01:36:03.500
Jewels.
2111
01:36:03.680 --> 01:36:06.180
You're right. Car stereos, hubcaps.
2112
01:36:06.300 --> 01:36:07.060
Hubcaps.
2113
01:36:07.100 --> 01:36:07.500
Yeah.
2114
01:36:07.560 --> 01:36:11.319
We'd be jewel thieves. There'd be guys who robbed banks.
2115
01:36:11.380 --> 01:36:14.039
We're stealing shit that's on the street.
2116
01:36:14.079 --> 01:36:14.420
Yeah.
2117
01:36:14.560 --> 01:36:16.079
Materials and dogs.
2118
01:36:16.140 --> 01:36:16.579
Yeah.
2119
01:36:16.760 --> 01:36:19.060
I liked a time when we just stole identities on
2120
01:36:19.079 --> 01:36:21.560
the internet. Now we're back to physically stealing things again,
2121
01:36:21.600 --> 01:36:22.920
and I don't know if I'm all about it.
2122
01:36:23.020 --> 01:36:26.800
I liked- When people stole diamonds and then every good
2123
01:36:27.460 --> 01:36:31.439
copper movie, it's like every one of those like Friday
2124
01:36:32.369 --> 01:36:34.069
police shows, you know what I mean? They have the
2125
01:36:34.109 --> 01:36:36.470
bad guy and he'd go Starsky and Hutch or something.
2126
01:36:36.489 --> 01:36:39.770
They go, we're going to move the ice. They love
2127
01:36:39.810 --> 01:36:40.369
saying ice.
2128
01:36:40.829 --> 01:36:43.250
They loved saying ice for diamonds.
2129
01:36:43.289 --> 01:36:43.829
Yeah.
2130
01:36:43.869 --> 01:36:44.090
Yeah.
2131
01:36:44.109 --> 01:36:45.670
We got to fence this ice.
2132
01:36:46.430 --> 01:36:46.989
Yeah.
2133
01:36:47.130 --> 01:36:50.029
I don't know why for like a seven year period
2134
01:36:50.189 --> 01:36:51.090
from like 1977 to.
2135
01:36:53.829 --> 01:36:56.869
To 1984, we just said ice, and they fucking loved it.
2136
01:36:56.890 --> 01:36:58.750
There's always the end when the guy shows up, the
2137
01:36:58.789 --> 01:37:00.699
dude who stole it, and then he comes to the
2138
01:37:00.760 --> 01:37:04.500
guy's giant palatial place, this billionaire who wanted the diamonds,
2139
01:37:04.539 --> 01:37:06.399
and he's sitting on his back patio, and he takes
2140
01:37:06.420 --> 01:37:08.659
that black bag, and he throws it onto the table,
2141
01:37:08.699 --> 01:37:09.060
and he goes.
2142
01:37:09.079 --> 01:37:10.119
I'm out.
2143
01:37:10.510 --> 01:37:11.270
I'm out. I'm out.
2144
01:37:11.409 --> 01:37:12.189
Keep your eyes.
2145
01:37:12.229 --> 01:37:12.409
Yeah.
2146
01:37:12.909 --> 01:37:13.310
I'm out.
2147
01:37:13.510 --> 01:37:13.970
No more.
2148
01:37:14.289 --> 01:37:14.470
Yeah.
2149
01:37:14.510 --> 01:37:15.630
What is the story you got?
2150
01:37:15.710 --> 01:37:18.810
The story is that they've been stealing. Oh, this goes
2151
01:37:18.850 --> 01:37:20.770
back to your rich man, poor man, by the way,
2152
01:37:20.850 --> 01:37:24.220
because rich man, poor man, you know, the going price
2153
01:37:24.340 --> 01:37:25.619
of copper, which by the way, do you know the
2154
01:37:25.640 --> 01:37:26.380
going price of copper?
2155
01:37:27.250 --> 01:37:29.270
I have no idea.
2156
01:37:29.270 --> 01:37:29.430
$ 5.
2157
01:37:29.270 --> 01:37:30.399
60 per pound right now.
2158
01:37:30.529 --> 01:37:30.810
Okay.
2159
01:37:30.840 --> 01:37:32.199
But one of the things, this came out in the
2160
01:37:32.220 --> 01:37:37.199
New York Post, that Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass believes
2161
01:37:37.439 --> 01:37:40.539
that solar-powered streetlights will make it harder for thieves to
2162
01:37:40.579 --> 01:37:42.220
swoop in and steal the copper.
2163
01:37:42.260 --> 01:37:43.199
That is her solution.
2164
01:37:43.239 --> 01:37:45.500
But let me, we'll play you the clip. But let
2165
01:37:45.539 --> 01:37:47.689
me explain something to Karen Bass and all the fucking
2166
01:37:47.699 --> 01:37:53.600
fruitcakes on the left. Criminals make money stealing shit. So,
2167
01:37:54.079 --> 01:37:56.800
all right, you make pot legal.
2168
01:37:57.140 --> 01:37:57.439
All right.
2169
01:37:57.649 --> 01:37:59.649
They don't bring in pot. They bring in fentanyl.
2170
01:38:00.409 --> 01:38:00.729
Okay.
2171
01:38:01.090 --> 01:38:04.909
You stop fentanyl. Oh, we'll do human trafficking. They're super
2172
01:38:05.010 --> 01:38:10.039
fucking versatile. They didn't steal copper because they're copper enthusiasts.
2173
01:38:10.060 --> 01:38:14.000
They fucking sell it. They'll be stealing your solar panels.
2174
01:38:14.039 --> 01:38:14.800
You understand?
2175
01:38:15.060 --> 01:38:18.739
You don't get it. They'll steal whatever. Now, you can
2176
01:38:18.779 --> 01:38:21.119
go ahead and try to figure out why they're doing
2177
01:38:21.149 --> 01:38:23.350
this or who they are or who's shitting them out
2178
01:38:23.390 --> 01:38:25.560
or what they're doing in our town. That'll stop The
2179
01:38:25.579 --> 01:38:29.199
part where you're just going to keep, hey, take all
2180
01:38:29.279 --> 01:38:30.420
the batteries.
2181
01:38:29.979 --> 01:38:31.069
And lock them in a cage.
2182
01:38:31.170 --> 01:38:31.409
Good.
2183
01:38:31.689 --> 01:38:34.430
They'll start stealing deodorant. That's how they work.
2184
01:38:34.489 --> 01:38:34.689
Yes.
2185
01:38:35.029 --> 01:38:35.810
Okay, here we go.
2186
01:38:36.770 --> 01:38:38.890
Well, Christine, a lot of time these crooks go after
2187
01:38:38.949 --> 01:38:41.369
streetlights like this one. Joab will show you they broke
2188
01:38:41.449 --> 01:38:44.170
in here and knocked out power to this side and
2189
01:38:44.210 --> 01:38:45.270
much of the neighborhood.
2190
01:38:45.569 --> 01:38:47.050
But this time the crooks went.
2191
01:38:46.989 --> 01:38:50.590
After Internet cables underground and it was all caught on camera.
2192
01:38:52.819 --> 01:38:54.739
Copper wire cracks strike again.
2193
01:38:54.760 --> 01:38:56.560
This time around 3 a.m.
2194
01:38:56.600 --> 01:38:59.199
In Van Nuys, one man wearing a hoodie, the other
2195
01:38:59.300 --> 01:39:02.369
shirtless with a medical mask, surgically removing wires.
2196
01:39:02.609 --> 01:39:04.970
It was loud and then I was like, hold on,
2197
01:39:05.250 --> 01:39:07.029
people have been stealing copper because I.
2198
01:39:06.989 --> 01:39:07.569
Walk these streets.
2199
01:39:08.029 --> 01:39:13.220
Candace Cervantes heard the action and started recording. Her video
2200
01:39:13.239 --> 01:39:16.960
shows the shirtless suspect pulling internet cables from underground while
2201
01:39:17.000 --> 01:39:19.350
his partner stands watch near the getaway car.
2202
01:39:19.359 --> 01:39:22.729
And then he even took a long black cable, tied
2203
01:39:22.770 --> 01:39:25.489
it to his car, and they were trying to, like,
2204
01:39:25.510 --> 01:39:25.899
really take it out.
2205
01:39:25.909 --> 01:39:27.270
This is the middle of the night, the middle of
2206
01:39:27.310 --> 01:39:28.829
Van Nuys. Oh, by the way, hold on.
2207
01:39:29.409 --> 01:39:31.609
The police station is in Van Nuys.
2208
01:39:32.970 --> 01:39:33.689
Van Nuys, the courthouse.
2209
01:39:36.739 --> 01:39:38.840
If you want to go down to the courthouse or
2210
01:39:38.920 --> 01:39:41.680
you want to pull a permit, building permits, or the
2211
01:39:41.720 --> 01:39:45.520
police station, they're all in Van Nuys, right off of
2212
01:39:45.539 --> 01:39:48.039
Van Nuys, in the fucking middle of Van Nuys. So
2213
01:39:48.970 --> 01:39:50.930
Van Nuys isn't that big.
2214
01:39:51.270 --> 01:39:51.970
Anyway, go ahead.
2215
01:39:51.989 --> 01:39:52.670
Good.
2216
01:39:52.930 --> 01:39:55.850
This section of Van Nuys plagued by thieves targeting copper
2217
01:39:55.890 --> 01:40:00.029
wire also above ground. Block after block, ripped lines connecting
2218
01:40:00.069 --> 01:40:02.970
to streetlights left in the dark. The thieves didn't seem
2219
01:40:02.989 --> 01:40:03.880
worried about getting caught?
2220
01:40:03.989 --> 01:40:04.439
Oh, no, no.
2221
01:40:06.560 --> 01:40:07.819
AT & T.
2222
01:40:07.329 --> 01:40:11.689
Has crews from Northern California here trying to restore service.
2223
01:40:11.710 --> 01:40:13.289
Is that happening a lot?
2224
01:40:14.159 --> 01:40:14.520
Oh, yeah.
2225
01:40:14.699 --> 01:40:14.920
Yeah.
2226
01:40:15.300 --> 01:40:17.319
Across L.A., the numbers are staggering.
2227
01:40:17.460 --> 01:40:22.329
Roughly 32,000 streetlight repair requests now active, mostly tied to
2228
01:40:22.390 --> 01:40:25.949
copper theft. Mayor Karen Bass last week approved plans to
2229
01:40:25.989 --> 01:40:28.229
replace those lights with solar ones.
2230
01:40:28.670 --> 01:40:30.449
Like, what's the point of stealing that?
2231
01:40:30.689 --> 01:40:32.729
To make money so they go and sell it, but
2232
01:40:32.760 --> 01:40:36.220
it gets you guys without streetlights and Wi-Fi.
2233
01:40:37.239 --> 01:40:37.359
Oh.
2234
01:40:37.760 --> 01:40:39.460
Some unaware, not worried.
2235
01:40:39.279 --> 01:40:40.170
That the thieves on....
2236
01:40:42.100 --> 01:40:43.180
There's still a little more.
2237
01:40:43.260 --> 01:40:44.800
Their block haven't been caught.
2238
01:40:45.100 --> 01:40:46.159
I'm so angry.
2239
01:40:46.840 --> 01:40:49.579
While major portions of the neighborhood are now dark and
2240
01:40:49.659 --> 01:40:50.479
without internet.
2241
01:40:50.729 --> 01:40:52.750
It's annoying. It's frustrating.
2242
01:40:53.449 --> 01:40:55.189
They make the environment here.
2243
01:40:55.670 --> 01:40:57.909
I mean, it's not the prettiest, but they don't make
2244
01:40:57.989 --> 01:41:03.000
it any better for sure. She estimates that the crooks
2245
01:41:03.039 --> 01:41:05.600
were here about 50 minutes while it took police an
2246
01:41:05.680 --> 01:41:06.659
hour to get here.
2247
01:41:07.079 --> 01:41:09.479
So far, no arrests have been made.
2248
01:41:09.600 --> 01:41:12.260
We have no appetite for it. By the way, that's
2249
01:41:12.300 --> 01:41:15.699
Karen Bass's constituency. The people steal all the copper wire
2250
01:41:15.720 --> 01:41:20.130
are the ones that vote her into fucking office. All right, L.A.,
2251
01:41:20.310 --> 01:41:25.159
listen to me, L.A. I told everyone this. The first day,
2252
01:41:25.420 --> 01:41:29.399
and this is 30 years ago, the first time I
2253
01:41:29.460 --> 01:41:32.470
saw him putting barbed wire around the freeway signs, I said,
2254
01:41:32.520 --> 01:41:34.670
that's a problem. We've got to figure out where this
2255
01:41:34.710 --> 01:41:38.550
city's going. We're going the wrong direction. Stop gut check time.
2256
01:41:38.729 --> 01:41:40.250
If you've got to do this, you're going the wrong
2257
01:41:40.289 --> 01:41:44.149
direction as a city. We're only days away from people
2258
01:41:44.210 --> 01:41:46.850
stealing the barbed wire that they put around the sign.
2259
01:41:46.989 --> 01:41:47.189
Yeah.
2260
01:41:47.210 --> 01:41:52.520
They're stealing fucking dogs and minerals, everybody. Reverse course. Figure
2261
01:41:52.659 --> 01:41:55.399
out a different direction. I don't know what else to
2262
01:41:55.460 --> 01:41:57.779
tell you. It's funny to say. It's like, you know,
2263
01:41:57.819 --> 01:41:59.840
when Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are like, oh, he's like,
2264
01:41:59.880 --> 01:42:01.760
what are these people talking about? It's great out here.
2265
01:42:01.859 --> 01:42:03.720
No, it isn't. It's interesting.
2266
01:42:05.159 --> 01:42:07.819
No one's making this up. It's either catalytic converters.
2267
01:42:08.239 --> 01:42:08.479
Yeah.
2268
01:42:08.600 --> 01:42:10.529
And now we're going to have one of those storage
2269
01:42:10.649 --> 01:42:13.529
units filled with solar panels here in the next eight months.
2270
01:42:13.630 --> 01:42:18.189
That's right. All right. So you can go to– oh,
2271
01:42:18.390 --> 01:42:24.800
that's right. Remember Nithya Raman, who's running– She's in the lead?
2272
01:42:25.399 --> 01:42:27.439
Is she in the lead? Yeah, Nithya Raman is in
2273
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:32.100
the lead to be the next mayor. Socialist Nithya Raman
2274
01:42:32.560 --> 01:42:34.619
is going to lead to be the next mayor. She's
2275
01:42:34.659 --> 01:42:37.550
the one who was angry at Toyota for making it
2276
01:42:37.630 --> 01:42:40.229
so easy for them to steal the catalytic converter. So
2277
01:42:40.270 --> 01:42:43.890
I don't think she's going to be impactful if all
2278
01:42:43.949 --> 01:42:45.710
her attention is spent on Toyota.
2279
01:42:45.810 --> 01:42:46.149
Yeah.
2280
01:42:46.449 --> 01:42:47.960
Yeah. All right.
2281
01:42:48.380 --> 01:42:51.789
This Friday and Saturday, Salt Lake City, Utah. Wise Guys
2282
01:42:51.829 --> 01:42:54.130
Comedy Club. Rudy, are you out there?
2283
01:42:54.869 --> 01:42:56.590
I'm not going to be out there with you, but

01:42:56.630 --> 01:42:58.229

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.310
From Corolla One Studios in Glendale, California, this is The
26
00:01:49.510 --> 00:01:54.209
Adam Corolla Show. Adam's guest today, actor Rob Morrow. And
27
00:01:54.250 --> 00:01:58.030
the news with Rudy Povich. And now, Adam Corolla.
28
00:01:58.829 --> 00:02:00.150
Rob Morrow is in.
29
00:02:00.170 --> 00:02:04.019
He's the actor, director. I don't know if he writes.
30
00:02:04.540 --> 00:02:08.639
I write. I produce. I make music. I cook a
31
00:02:08.659 --> 00:02:09.180
little bit.
32
00:02:10.219 --> 00:02:13.889
Rob has been around. For quite a while.
33
00:02:13.969 --> 00:02:17.090
I guess northern exposure is probably where people first sort
34
00:02:17.110 --> 00:02:18.659
of saw you consistently.
35
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:21.060
That kind of put me on the map. Yeah, for sure.
36
00:02:21.099 --> 00:02:21.819
That was 1990.
37
00:02:21.819 --> 00:02:25.930
It was a big hit, and it was also back when...
38
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.620
we could have big hits on network television.
39
00:02:29.780 --> 00:02:33.960
It's true. We were considered, I think, a modest hit
40
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.099
at like 18, 20 million a week. I know.
41
00:02:38.419 --> 00:02:41.599
The Oscars is not going to do anything near that
42
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:46.960
in terms of viewership. Dukes of Hazzard was 37 million
43
00:02:47.020 --> 00:02:50.199
Americans watching. Yeah.
44
00:02:50.259 --> 00:02:52.340
It's kind of interesting. I don't know if it's better
45
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:52.919
or worse.
46
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:57.280
When I was a kid, and we're roughly the same age,
47
00:02:58.259 --> 00:03:01.169
I knew every human being that was on television.
48
00:03:01.610 --> 00:03:03.370
Now I get a lot.
49
00:03:03.110 --> 00:03:06.610
Of like, oh, that's the one from Top Chef European.
50
00:03:06.729 --> 00:03:08.370
She's a huge, and I'm like, I don't know who
51
00:03:08.389 --> 00:03:10.960
that is. It's a huge kind of universe, right? There's
52
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.000
so many, how many people come up to you and say,
53
00:03:13.689 --> 00:03:15.389
Have you seen this show and you've never heard of it?
54
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:16.319
And it's a huge hit.
55
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:17.159
Right.
56
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:20.240
And there's a movie star involved. Oh, yeah. Wait, I
57
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:21.300
didn't know they were doing it.
58
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:26.860
Well, I know The Grey House, which is on Prime
59
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:27.759
right now.
60
00:03:27.780 --> 00:03:31.810
I was watching it last night. It's really good.
61
00:03:32.030 --> 00:03:35.289
And I just saw Costner's name on there as a producer.
62
00:03:35.310 --> 00:03:38.229
And I thought, oh, of course, anything historical has got
63
00:03:38.250 --> 00:03:39.229
to have his name on there.
64
00:03:39.250 --> 00:03:41.810
He loves historical stuff. And he was really instrumental in
65
00:03:41.849 --> 00:03:43.340
getting it made, him and Morgan Freeman.
66
00:03:44.659 --> 00:03:45.719
Morgan was doing the VO.
67
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:48.879
Morgan did the first and the last episode VO, but
68
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:50.159
he was involved as a producer.
69
00:03:51.900 --> 00:03:52.139
Yeah.
70
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:52.780
Yeah.
71
00:03:52.860 --> 00:03:56.699
Costner is just a constant. He loves the West, but
72
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:59.340
he loves history, but he loves stories.
73
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:01.719
Yeah. And this is a unique story. I mean, it's
74
00:04:01.780 --> 00:04:03.400
one that I've never heard. I don't know if you did,
75
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.159
but about this female spy ring in the Civil War.
76
00:04:06.219 --> 00:04:08.500
And they were, you know, it's based on facts and
77
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:10.840
it was pretty well, you know, they also have John
78
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:14.219
Sayles as one of the writers. And he's great with history.
79
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:15.379
He's a real history buff.
80
00:04:16.100 --> 00:04:20.870
Yeah, it's great because we're not going to have anyone
81
00:04:20.930 --> 00:04:23.930
sit down and read textbooks anymore. But if you can
82
00:04:23.970 --> 00:04:28.410
do accurate portrayals of this, then it can be very
83
00:04:28.550 --> 00:04:32.370
consumable and educational as well.
84
00:04:32.670 --> 00:04:34.870
And just, you know, I mean, what's amazing is that
85
00:04:34.910 --> 00:04:37.149
there's these, you know, I was just talking to someone
86
00:04:37.329 --> 00:04:41.180
about there's all these documentaries on now about, say, I
87
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.550
just saw the new Elvis documentary, and then I just
88
00:04:43.579 --> 00:04:47.810
watched last night the one on Paul McCartney. And there's
89
00:04:47.850 --> 00:04:50.009
these aspects of these times that we think we know
90
00:04:50.089 --> 00:04:53.709
everything about. And then you see a new perspective on it,
91
00:04:53.829 --> 00:04:57.050
and it's like, oh, in regards to the Elvis one,
92
00:04:57.870 --> 00:04:59.889
I thought I knew everything about Elvis, but I knew nothing,
93
00:04:59.910 --> 00:05:02.459
like who the man really was. This one seems to
94
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:04.779
capture it, at least in the positives, not with all
95
00:05:04.819 --> 00:05:05.959
the drug addled, you know.
96
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:10.639
Sadly, and it'll happen to us, or it already has,
97
00:05:12.050 --> 00:05:15.509
Everyone becomes a cartoon version of themselves for everyone who's
98
00:05:15.529 --> 00:05:16.279
consuming it.
99
00:05:16.509 --> 00:05:17.709
You know what I mean? I guess so.
100
00:05:17.930 --> 00:05:21.310
And it's kind of sad that that's our default setting. Right.
101
00:05:21.350 --> 00:05:21.970
You know what I mean?
102
00:05:22.189 --> 00:05:25.050
And it's also nonsensical.
103
00:05:25.110 --> 00:05:29.970
Like even when you disagree with somebody, you go, you
104
00:05:29.990 --> 00:05:34.060
start thinking about it and it's like. Why is Trump
105
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:37.269
doing what he's doing at the border? Because he likes pain. Right.
106
00:05:37.430 --> 00:05:40.949
It's like, well, he's doing it for other reasons that
107
00:05:40.970 --> 00:05:44.360
you disagree with. But, like, we do this thing where
108
00:05:44.379 --> 00:05:47.600
this person's... They become caricatures.
109
00:05:47.740 --> 00:05:48.379
It's reductive.
110
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:50.279
And it's really sad. Like, Elvis.
111
00:05:51.180 --> 00:05:55.300
Fat guy, died on the toilet. You know, Mama Cass Elliott,
112
00:05:55.339 --> 00:05:57.579
what'd she do? She's eating a ham sandwich.
113
00:05:57.620 --> 00:05:57.870
Right.
114
00:05:57.930 --> 00:05:59.610
And she died because she's a big fatty.
115
00:05:59.730 --> 00:06:00.490
Yeah. You know what I mean?
116
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:02.269
It's like, that's not fair to her.
117
00:06:02.310 --> 00:06:03.290
You're right.
118
00:06:03.569 --> 00:06:06.089
She's a great artist. And I'm sure people loved her
119
00:06:06.129 --> 00:06:06.790
very much.
120
00:06:06.870 --> 00:06:07.870
And we just had to do.
121
00:06:07.769 --> 00:06:12.490
This really sad thing where she died eating a ham sandwich.
122
00:06:12.569 --> 00:06:15.649
It's like, it's so, we do it with everybody.
123
00:06:16.050 --> 00:06:16.189
Yeah.
124
00:06:16.209 --> 00:06:17.230
Maybe we do it.
125
00:06:18.709 --> 00:06:22.980
Because we're narcissists. Like it makes us feel better somehow.
126
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:23.959
We're all narcissists?
127
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.699
Well, here's what I'm starting to realize.
128
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:30.790
I do say this is the narcissist age we live in,
129
00:06:30.810 --> 00:06:32.000
but I don't know if everyone's.
130
00:06:32.050 --> 00:06:36.470
Well, no, I'm not saying clinically diagnosable. But what I'm
131
00:06:36.550 --> 00:06:42.069
saying is, is like every kid starts off a narcissist.
132
00:06:42.970 --> 00:06:44.110
You know what I mean? Sure.
133
00:06:44.209 --> 00:06:47.639
Like it's sort of just. You know, that basic thing
134
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:49.959
where you go, like, here's 10 M & Ms, share
135
00:06:49.980 --> 00:06:50.879
them with your sister.
136
00:06:50.899 --> 00:06:52.540
And it's like, I'll just keep the 10.
137
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:53.120
Right, right.
138
00:06:53.139 --> 00:06:54.860
You know what I mean? Like, you don't go, here's five,
139
00:06:54.980 --> 00:06:55.639
I'll take five.
140
00:06:55.699 --> 00:06:55.939
Right.
141
00:06:55.980 --> 00:06:57.259
We have to kind of train you out of that.
142
00:06:57.279 --> 00:06:59.199
We have to learn to be socialized is what you're saying.
143
00:06:59.259 --> 00:07:02.680
Yeah, and we have to sort of learn to.
144
00:07:02.939 --> 00:07:06.279
Well, you found a wallet on the ground. Your impulse
145
00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:08.060
is to take the 50 bucks out of it and
146
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:09.220
throw it in the dumpster.
147
00:07:09.259 --> 00:07:10.790
But what if that was your wallet?
148
00:07:10.850 --> 00:07:11.019
Right.
149
00:07:11.050 --> 00:07:13.430
Wouldn't you want the person to do the right thing?
150
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:13.550
Right.
151
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:14.430
You know, that kind of thing.
152
00:07:14.470 --> 00:07:16.709
And so that takes... A little training.
153
00:07:17.189 --> 00:07:20.540
Right. No, like I distinctly remember making a decision when
154
00:07:20.620 --> 00:07:23.160
I was, I don't know, 20 or something that if
155
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:25.420
I drop something, you know, if you're walking on the
156
00:07:25.459 --> 00:07:27.459
street and you're eating something, the wrapper and something falls
157
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:29.199
on the street and you just keep going. But I
158
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:30.680
remember thinking, no, I'm never going to do that. I'm
159
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:32.259
always going to pick it up. And so now wherever
160
00:07:32.339 --> 00:07:34.300
I am, like I pick up the thing that I did,
161
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:36.980
you know, because that's maybe that was the beginning. But
162
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:39.060
I never got over being a narcissist, so it didn't
163
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:39.600
really help me.
164
00:07:39.939 --> 00:07:43.079
Well, listen, everybody....
165
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:47.579
No one is grossed out by their own spit. But
166
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.399
you're disgusted if someone spits on your face. Yes.
167
00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:52.480
That's their spit that they don't mind.
168
00:07:52.540 --> 00:07:52.839
Right.
169
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:55.750
So we're all kind of wired to like our own spit.
170
00:07:55.870 --> 00:07:56.350
Right.
171
00:07:56.699 --> 00:07:57.850
And that's fine.
172
00:07:57.899 --> 00:08:00.750
Take care of yourself. Take care of your family. Look
173
00:08:00.889 --> 00:08:03.029
out for your kids. That kind of thing.
174
00:08:03.050 --> 00:08:03.269
Sure.
175
00:08:03.310 --> 00:08:06.649
That's fine. It's more the part when it starts getting
176
00:08:06.829 --> 00:08:11.230
applied to society. That's the part that we're sort of
177
00:08:11.410 --> 00:08:12.189
entering now.
178
00:08:12.569 --> 00:08:17.060
Right, and that's where you're saying that the narcissism extends further, that.
179
00:08:17.769 --> 00:08:20.769
I think it's a thing that was supposed to be
180
00:08:21.110 --> 00:08:23.769
tamped down and sort of kept in check.
181
00:08:23.930 --> 00:08:24.230
Right.
182
00:08:24.470 --> 00:08:27.110
And we've decided that everyone's just got to do their
183
00:08:27.170 --> 00:08:28.000
own thing now.
184
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:28.439
Right.
185
00:08:28.449 --> 00:08:30.019
And there's no more judgment going on.
186
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:30.459
Right.
187
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:32.919
So now people wear pajamas to the airport.
188
00:08:33.179 --> 00:08:33.539
Right.
189
00:08:33.820 --> 00:08:37.100
Because everyone always wanted to wear pajamas to the airport
190
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:40.039
because it was more comfortable, but they were dissuaded from
191
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:44.029
doing it because society sort of said, hey, No, no.
192
00:08:44.129 --> 00:08:46.429
It's like that Warhol thing was everyone's going to be
193
00:08:46.450 --> 00:08:48.889
famous for 15 minutes. And then I updated that to
194
00:08:48.909 --> 00:08:50.909
be everyone's going to be a director for 15 minutes.
195
00:08:50.950 --> 00:08:52.710
And then I updated that to everyone's going to have
196
00:08:52.730 --> 00:08:56.049
their own network for 15 minutes.
197
00:08:56.070 --> 00:09:01.139
It is an interesting time we're living in where, you know,
198
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:04.980
back to northern exposure, the moderate hit at 18 million
199
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:06.539
viewers a week.
200
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:10.190
By the way, now on Amazon Prime as well, and
201
00:09:10.629 --> 00:09:14.210
it's finding a whole new generation of fans, which is
202
00:09:14.250 --> 00:09:18.490
so interesting. There's something weirdly not dated about it. It
203
00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:20.970
doesn't feel dated when you watch that show, and I
204
00:09:21.029 --> 00:09:23.480
can't quite put my finger on what that is, except
205
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:27.659
the themes tend to be universal, you know, and the
206
00:09:28.779 --> 00:09:31.019
visuals are, you know, it's like you and I could
207
00:09:31.059 --> 00:09:33.679
walk down the street right now and pick up trucks
208
00:09:33.740 --> 00:09:34.919
and jeans, you know.
209
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:35.259
Right.
210
00:09:35.350 --> 00:09:36.269
And, you know.
211
00:09:36.669 --> 00:09:41.659
Well, you know, my kids watched The Office ten years
212
00:09:41.740 --> 00:09:44.519
after it was off the air. Friends ten years after
213
00:09:44.539 --> 00:09:46.860
it was off the air. I watched I Love Lucy.
214
00:09:46.940 --> 00:09:47.340
Forever.
215
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:50.019
You know, I would just watch whatever was on.
216
00:09:50.100 --> 00:09:53.769
And, like, I knew I Love Lucy was dated, but
217
00:09:53.850 --> 00:09:57.250
it was funny, and I didn't mind, and there was
218
00:09:57.269 --> 00:09:58.090
nothing else on.
219
00:09:58.169 --> 00:09:59.929
And, you know, I think historically.
220
00:10:00.980 --> 00:10:10.149
and it's true some shows– are better with, not better
221
00:10:10.169 --> 00:10:12.970
with age, but the date, they don't feel dated.
222
00:10:13.210 --> 00:10:15.190
Right, like you watch Miami Vice now, it's kind of
223
00:10:15.210 --> 00:10:18.799
hard to watch, right? Nothing against any of those people.
224
00:10:18.820 --> 00:10:19.860
No, everything against.
225
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.399
I literally, now Andrew, you got to find it because
226
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:31.139
I was going to interview Ted Nugent in Texas several,
227
00:10:31.419 --> 00:10:36.120
a few weeks ago. And on the way in, I
228
00:10:36.129 --> 00:10:39.700
was driving in, and the person I was driving with said,
229
00:10:40.899 --> 00:10:42.480
you saw him on Miami.
230
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:42.980
Vice, right?
231
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:47.149
And I was like, no, I wasn't. My kind of thing,
232
00:10:47.289 --> 00:10:50.090
even as a younger person, is I... I kind of
233
00:10:50.110 --> 00:10:53.929
looked at Miami Vice as kind of cheeseball even back then. Like,
234
00:10:54.210 --> 00:10:57.389
you can't find pictures of me wearing stonewashed denim and
235
00:10:57.429 --> 00:10:58.549
with long hair or anything.
236
00:10:58.590 --> 00:10:59.289
Because I was.
237
00:10:59.870 --> 00:11:04.149
My only gift is being able to spot out lame
238
00:11:04.250 --> 00:11:05.870
shit in real time.
239
00:11:06.110 --> 00:11:06.309
Right.
240
00:11:06.470 --> 00:11:09.809
Like, history's not going to be kind to this look
241
00:11:09.830 --> 00:11:11.629
or this vibe or whatever it is.
242
00:11:11.669 --> 00:11:11.850
And so.
243
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:16.039
I was from North Hollywood, California. The Miami Vice thing
244
00:11:16.059 --> 00:11:17.240
seemed like bullshit to me.
245
00:11:17.259 --> 00:11:19.500
Yeah. I just wanted to be on it, so, because
246
00:11:19.559 --> 00:11:21.080
everyone in my, you know, I was in the 80s
247
00:11:21.100 --> 00:11:23.809
in New York, and we all were getting flown to,
248
00:11:23.850 --> 00:11:25.870
not only was it a gig on TV, but you
249
00:11:25.889 --> 00:11:28.289
get flown to Florida for a week. Oh, my God.
250
00:11:28.429 --> 00:11:28.769
You know.
251
00:11:28.950 --> 00:11:31.950
But I was, so, I never really watched it, but
252
00:11:32.009 --> 00:11:34.070
I wasn't an actor, so I didn't, you know, you
253
00:11:34.090 --> 00:11:37.830
had a little more, your thoughts, your aspirations.
254
00:11:37.330 --> 00:11:38.789
Were more practical than mine.
255
00:11:38.809 --> 00:11:40.970
Mine was like, this is a goofball TV show people
256
00:11:40.990 --> 00:11:42.120
will make fun of in a few years.
257
00:11:42.129 --> 00:11:42.409
Yeah.
258
00:11:43.019 --> 00:11:48.580
But when I was going to interview Ted Nugent, somebody
259
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.500
explained to me, did you see his arc on Miami Vice?
260
00:11:52.570 --> 00:11:55.210
And I said, no, I absolutely didn't. And they said,
261
00:11:55.250 --> 00:11:56.570
you better watch it on your.
262
00:11:56.529 --> 00:11:58.490
Phone right now. So it was more than one episode.
263
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:02.799
It was, I think he starred, it's hard for me
264
00:12:02.860 --> 00:12:04.779
to tell if it was more than one episode, but
265
00:12:04.820 --> 00:12:07.129
he played the heavy, and it was awesome.
266
00:12:07.169 --> 00:12:09.370
Right. Because Ted can't act. Yeah, but he looks like
267
00:12:09.389 --> 00:12:10.409
a good heavy. Oh, yeah.
268
00:12:10.649 --> 00:12:12.429
Lots of hair. I'll play the clips.
269
00:12:17.129 --> 00:12:17.500
Charlie.
270
00:12:17.620 --> 00:12:18.399
Even the music.
271
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:24.659
Ted Nugent. This is the best part. Look at the graphics.
272
00:12:25.610 --> 00:12:26.649
The pastel graphics.
273
00:12:26.750 --> 00:12:28.950
Oh, it's all great. The music is great. All right,
274
00:12:28.990 --> 00:12:34.169
Don Johnson is with his woman. Ted's beating up Don Johnson.
275
00:12:36.460 --> 00:12:40.539
Come on. Come on, Ted.
276
00:12:41.139 --> 00:12:48.620
Ah, the stomach, the gut punch. Get the hell out of.
277
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:50.320
Here.
278
00:12:50.379 --> 00:12:54.809
He's got to shoot him with a crossbow. I love
279
00:12:54.830 --> 00:12:56.090
the decor. I love the music.
280
00:12:56.129 --> 00:12:58.529
But you know what's interesting is the lighting is kind
281
00:12:58.570 --> 00:13:01.409
of really good. I mean, that's not like, that's better
282
00:13:01.450 --> 00:13:02.049
than TV.
283
00:13:02.350 --> 00:13:04.269
You see the hair come out from under the fedora?
284
00:13:04.529 --> 00:13:09.029
Now, here's Ted. Here's Ted the thespian. There's dialogue here.
285
00:13:11.929 --> 00:13:15.629
By the way, good-looking chicks just sat around and thought
286
00:13:15.700 --> 00:13:17.120
about stuff back then, you know?
287
00:13:17.139 --> 00:13:22.990
Okay. That's good lighting, I'm here to tell you, Adam.
288
00:13:23.129 --> 00:13:25.049
That's not bad lighting.
289
00:13:25.090 --> 00:13:29.529
Whoever gaffed that did a great job.
290
00:13:29.649 --> 00:13:36.789
Ted just smacked his lady friend. Shirt off, hair flowing.
291
00:13:36.950 --> 00:13:46.700
Definitely Miami. How's the eye?
292
00:13:46.750 --> 00:13:47.710
Hardly shows now.
293
00:13:49.169 --> 00:13:53.309
That's back when women did not complain about getting beaten
294
00:13:53.350 --> 00:13:54.250
by Ted Nugent.
295
00:13:55.769 --> 00:13:57.809
No, he wouldn't.
296
00:13:58.789 --> 00:13:59.690
He didn't make it with him.
297
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:12.879
Old fashioned. Don't shoot him in the face, okay?
298
00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:24.519
Sure. All right. That's new. Oh, wait.
299
00:14:24.620 --> 00:14:25.259
It's so funny.
300
00:14:25.320 --> 00:14:28.200
I think this is the first scene I saw was
301
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:30.879
the one that backed five seconds.
302
00:14:30.899 --> 00:14:32.539
He was on multiple episodes, did you say?
303
00:14:32.779 --> 00:14:33.279
I don't.
304
00:14:33.539 --> 00:14:36.659
I'm watching it on my phone driving through Texas.
305
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:37.019
Right.
306
00:14:37.139 --> 00:14:38.539
Trying to figure out what's going on.
307
00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:38.919
Right.
308
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:42.120
He's changing outfits. There's a lot of storyline going on.
309
00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:43.059
There's a lot of that clothes.
310
00:14:43.259 --> 00:14:45.789
But if you do this one, the first one I
311
00:14:45.830 --> 00:14:46.450
saw was this.
312
00:14:46.899 --> 00:14:47.259
Burnett.
313
00:14:50.460 --> 00:14:52.919
So, we meet again.
314
00:14:53.580 --> 00:14:55.159
I watch that and I'm like, I don't believe him.
315
00:14:56.470 --> 00:14:59.750
Ted Nugent said, Burnett, we meet again. I was like,
316
00:14:59.789 --> 00:15:01.870
I don't believe him as an actor. Yeah, I'm not sure.
317
00:15:02.649 --> 00:15:05.409
But Don Johnson, man, that guy still looks amazing. You
318
00:15:05.429 --> 00:15:09.110
see him around town? Oh, yeah. He looks amazing. Yeah.
319
00:15:10.970 --> 00:15:13.169
And he was a big party boy, so he figured
320
00:15:13.210 --> 00:15:13.730
something out.
321
00:15:14.210 --> 00:15:14.409
Yeah.
322
00:15:14.899 --> 00:15:18.179
So, did you ever get on Miami Vice?
323
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:19.580
Never got on it, but all my friends did.
324
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:20.279
Really?
325
00:15:20.419 --> 00:15:22.100
I must audition for it.
326
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:23.299
Who'd you come up with?
327
00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:28.269
Well, in terms of who did this show, but... You know,
328
00:15:28.610 --> 00:15:34.269
Fisher Stevens and Matthew Broderick and Craig Sheffer.
329
00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:39.879
Are these like sort of New York actor guys you
330
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:40.600
came up with?
331
00:15:40.659 --> 00:15:42.220
Yeah, yeah. We were all in the theater.
332
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:42.899
Right.
333
00:15:42.940 --> 00:15:45.259
And we even started a theater company that actually is
334
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:48.779
still around 40 years later. And that was kind of
335
00:15:48.820 --> 00:15:51.379
our home and place to have some kind of autonomy.
336
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:53.720
And big parties.
337
00:15:53.779 --> 00:15:55.720
We were known as, we were actually a known, like
338
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:57.779
Vanity Fair covered us and stuff. We were like the
339
00:15:57.919 --> 00:16:00.840
it company. And we would throw these parties that would be,
340
00:16:01.100 --> 00:16:05.019
after every show, when it closed, we would have these
341
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:08.200
kind of mushroom parties and just get wasted and just
342
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:12.610
have these great dance parties. And it was a lot
343
00:16:12.620 --> 00:16:14.090
of fun. Yeah.
344
00:16:14.659 --> 00:16:18.309
It was, I don't know, I don't know if that's,
345
00:16:18.690 --> 00:16:21.529
what to call it, innocent time or something, but people
346
00:16:21.570 --> 00:16:22.350
could just sort.
347
00:16:22.210 --> 00:16:24.879
Of do what they wanted. Compared to now, right? You
348
00:16:24.899 --> 00:16:27.120
wouldn't have to watch your back. Like now, if those
349
00:16:27.179 --> 00:16:29.120
parties were, if you were throwing those parties now, people
350
00:16:29.139 --> 00:16:31.480
would be filming, you know, shooting with their phones.
351
00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:33.340
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
352
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:35.080
There was a kind of innocence for sure.
353
00:16:35.100 --> 00:16:40.139
Yeah, it was sort of what And basically, it's what
354
00:16:40.259 --> 00:16:42.840
smoking was. Like, if you want to smoke a cigarette
355
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:45.220
at a mushroom party, you would just light a cigarette.
356
00:16:45.259 --> 00:16:45.879
You didn't go.
357
00:16:46.259 --> 00:16:49.100
Now, you've got to go hide behind the dumpster in
358
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:51.789
the alley, smoke half a cigarette, put it out, hit
359
00:16:51.830 --> 00:16:54.549
a little panaca, and come back into the party.
360
00:16:54.669 --> 00:16:57.090
It's like, people just kind of... If you felt like smoking,
361
00:16:57.110 --> 00:16:57.950
you would smoke.
362
00:16:58.029 --> 00:16:58.710
And, like.
363
00:16:59.149 --> 00:17:02.860
It's not like people who didn't smoke liked secondhand smoke.
364
00:17:02.940 --> 00:17:04.700
It was just, yeah, they were at a party.
365
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:05.299
Right.
366
00:17:05.400 --> 00:17:05.960
People smoke.
367
00:17:06.259 --> 00:17:06.480
Right.
368
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:08.000
You don't like it, just go in the kitchen.
369
00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:11.920
Restaurants, you know, just rooms where you'd be inhaling secondhand
370
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:13.299
smoke and not even thinking about it.
371
00:17:13.740 --> 00:17:14.400
No, it was.
372
00:17:15.329 --> 00:17:15.910
Did you smoke?
373
00:17:16.950 --> 00:17:18.109
I smoked like.
374
00:17:20.470 --> 00:17:23.789
I was a, if I was drinking, I would smoke guy.
375
00:17:23.809 --> 00:17:27.779
I wish I could be someone like that. I was
376
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:30.039
a two-pack-a-day guy by the time I gave it up.
377
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:30.920
Really?
378
00:17:31.220 --> 00:17:34.000
I'm so envious of people that can just have a
379
00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:35.579
couple cigarettes with a drink.
380
00:17:35.900 --> 00:17:40.279
It's a wiring that I've realized is very unique, and
381
00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:44.839
it's also a wiring that many people don't have, which
382
00:17:44.859 --> 00:17:48.910
is redundant. But it's also a thing where doctors will
383
00:17:48.950 --> 00:17:49.730
never believe you.
384
00:17:50.170 --> 00:17:50.549
Right.
385
00:17:50.750 --> 00:17:52.690
So if you go... They go, do you smoke?
386
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:54.539
I go, ah, you know, on the weekend if I'm
387
00:17:54.579 --> 00:17:55.380
having a cocktail.
388
00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:57.859
They'll go, okay, you're a smoker. Right.
389
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:00.000
And I go, no, no, I'm not telling you. And
390
00:18:00.019 --> 00:18:03.619
they go, no, no, nobody's– they don't say you're a liar.
391
00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.099
What they're saying is this is bullshit.
392
00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:06.359
Right.
393
00:18:06.380 --> 00:18:08.619
This guy smoked before he came to this office. He's
394
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:10.440
going to have a cigarette when he leaves. Like they
395
00:18:10.460 --> 00:18:15.730
don't– I've never really– found a person who smoked like
396
00:18:15.849 --> 00:18:18.789
I smoked, which is just sort of catch-as-catch-can.
397
00:18:18.809 --> 00:18:20.349
There's a lot of you out there. I'm so jealous.
398
00:18:20.369 --> 00:18:20.710
Are there?
399
00:18:20.809 --> 00:18:21.339
Oh, yeah.
400
00:18:21.450 --> 00:18:22.920
Oh, I never run into those people.
401
00:18:22.940 --> 00:18:24.599
I think my wife can, you know.
402
00:18:24.640 --> 00:18:26.099
Oh, I do think women.
403
00:18:26.140 --> 00:18:27.539
At a party, they'll have a cigarette.
404
00:18:27.579 --> 00:18:31.730
Women have the weird chip cigarette with a glass of
405
00:18:31.789 --> 00:18:33.630
wine thing that guys don't.
406
00:18:33.450 --> 00:18:34.230
Seem to have.
407
00:18:34.250 --> 00:18:35.049
I want that.
408
00:18:35.170 --> 00:18:35.569
Yeah.
409
00:18:36.049 --> 00:18:37.150
No, I mean, it is a.
410
00:18:37.250 --> 00:18:39.910
Thing, and I don't know how you feel, but I
411
00:18:39.950 --> 00:18:43.150
feel the same way about drinking as I do about smoking,
412
00:18:43.210 --> 00:18:45.569
which is like, I like it, and I don't want
413
00:18:45.609 --> 00:18:48.990
it to ever get to a point where we go, hey, man,
414
00:18:49.509 --> 00:18:50.009
this is a problem.
415
00:18:50.029 --> 00:18:52.390
I stopped drinking. You've got to stop. I stopped, and
416
00:18:52.490 --> 00:18:54.769
I like not drinking. But I was never a big drinker,
417
00:18:55.210 --> 00:18:57.950
but I was a big stoner. Like, that was my thing.
418
00:18:58.730 --> 00:19:00.950
I gave up both. And I like it. Like, I
419
00:19:02.029 --> 00:19:03.490
didn't have to. It wasn't like I got in trouble
420
00:19:03.509 --> 00:19:05.630
or anything. So I made the choice, and I could
421
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:10.059
at any point not or have. But I just feel better.
422
00:19:10.220 --> 00:19:10.920
I just feel better.
423
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:13.640
Without the pot, without the booze.
424
00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:16.240
Yeah. Like, when I wake up, I feel like I'm
425
00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:19.660
getting– I just feel clearer, clearer-headed. You know, I spent
426
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:23.269
so many years doing all that stuff. I mean, 30
427
00:19:23.269 --> 00:19:25.589
years at least was– you know, that was a regular
428
00:19:25.630 --> 00:19:27.890
thing for me. Mm-hmm. Like all of a sudden it's
429
00:19:27.910 --> 00:19:30.130
like a new person. It's like, oh, I'm this guy.
430
00:19:31.029 --> 00:19:34.230
I'm not like a stone guy or a drinking guy.
431
00:19:35.859 --> 00:19:37.380
But it was fun. But I enjoyed it. Like I
432
00:19:37.779 --> 00:19:40.549
don't regret it and I don't begrudge anyone doing it.
433
00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:47.569
Yeah, the actor, young actor starting off parties are just
434
00:19:48.329 --> 00:19:50.799
some of the best memories I've had. like with the
435
00:19:50.920 --> 00:19:54.579
improv troupe after the show raps or whatever going over
436
00:19:54.599 --> 00:19:58.460
to mark dropman's apartment everyone just having a good time
437
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:02.309
just sort of on a budget but just sort of
438
00:20:02.990 --> 00:20:06.250
everything was everyone was funny you know everyone's had a
439
00:20:06.309 --> 00:20:08.230
great personality.
440
00:20:07.609 --> 00:20:12.990
Yeah Yeah, it's a great time. But I guess you
441
00:20:13.009 --> 00:20:14.869
grow out of it, right? I mean, you see the
442
00:20:14.910 --> 00:20:17.750
people that are still trying to do it, and it's sad.
443
00:20:17.829 --> 00:20:24.480
Well, it's interesting when you're at a phase where everything
444
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:29.720
is sort of a possibility versus been there, done that.
445
00:20:30.259 --> 00:20:32.740
And it's also a kind of a great distinction. It's
446
00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:35.519
everything's a possibility. That's that's at that time.
447
00:20:36.259 --> 00:20:36.740
Right.
448
00:20:37.019 --> 00:20:40.420
Good and bad. But but up for grabs. You know,
449
00:20:40.460 --> 00:20:42.980
what's the future hold? You know, like a lot of that.
450
00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:47.509
It's a different mindset. Also versus a kind of a
451
00:20:48.410 --> 00:20:51.450
protect the lead kind of thing where you're sort of
452
00:20:51.529 --> 00:20:54.650
trying to hang on to what you have or what
453
00:20:54.710 --> 00:20:57.210
you had. Versus what's next.
454
00:20:57.430 --> 00:20:58.730
Right. You know what I mean? Right.
455
00:20:58.869 --> 00:21:02.650
And it was all so new and all so full
456
00:21:02.690 --> 00:21:04.759
of potential.
457
00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:05.579
Yeah.
458
00:21:05.660 --> 00:21:09.299
And you'd hear little bits and pieces of so-and-so got
459
00:21:09.339 --> 00:21:11.480
a job writing on Animaniacs.
460
00:21:11.819 --> 00:21:12.099
Right.
461
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:14.359
He's making $ 2, 200 a week.
462
00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:14.880
Right.
463
00:21:15.019 --> 00:21:15.380
Whoa.
464
00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:16.000
Yeah.
465
00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:17.900
You know, like that kind of stuff. And it was like,
466
00:21:18.390 --> 00:21:19.509
oh my God, potential.
467
00:21:19.789 --> 00:21:22.170
But that gave you, at least for me anyway, that
468
00:21:22.230 --> 00:21:25.029
gave me, like when my friends, when Fisher- you know,
469
00:21:25.069 --> 00:21:26.940
got his first movie and I was right there. I
470
00:21:26.940 --> 00:21:29.279
was like, oh man, cause I didn't come from showbiz.
471
00:21:29.380 --> 00:21:31.940
So I didn't, you know, it wasn't like easy getting
472
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.160
into it. And when, when a friend of mine, a
473
00:21:34.220 --> 00:21:37.029
pal broke in with a movie, you're just like, oh
474
00:21:37.049 --> 00:21:39.150
my God, it's possible. You can do this. One can
475
00:21:39.190 --> 00:21:39.569
do this.
476
00:21:40.490 --> 00:21:44.910
Well, um, I mean, what's the big, what was your big,
477
00:21:45.380 --> 00:21:48.200
I know you did mother with Albert.
478
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:49.180
Brooks, one of my favorites.
479
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:51.980
Oh, yeah, man. That was like, I'll tell you. That
480
00:21:52.019 --> 00:21:53.519
had to be a thrill. I'll tell you about the
481
00:21:53.579 --> 00:21:57.589
audition for that. It was so genius because so they
482
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:01.769
call and they say, Albert is interested in you for
483
00:22:01.809 --> 00:22:06.430
this movie. And I'm like, I'm in, you know, without
484
00:22:07.329 --> 00:22:09.450
such a fan. So they said, but he wants to,
485
00:22:09.529 --> 00:22:11.279
you know, at that point I was getting offers and
486
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:14.380
only so. But he said, he needs to read. You
487
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:16.079
need to read for it. And I was like, no problem.
488
00:22:16.220 --> 00:22:18.119
When and where? So he said, they're going to fly
489
00:22:18.140 --> 00:22:19.670
you out. I was in New York. They fly me
490
00:22:19.750 --> 00:22:22.430
out here to L.A. I go to Paramount on a Sunday,
491
00:22:22.490 --> 00:22:25.150
I think it was. And Albert, I get let into
492
00:22:25.289 --> 00:22:27.490
Albert's office. He's got a little teeny office with a
493
00:22:27.690 --> 00:22:31.789
secretary outside. And nothing. It doesn't look like he spends
494
00:22:31.809 --> 00:22:33.970
a lot of time there. And I come in. I
495
00:22:34.009 --> 00:22:37.390
got my sides, the pages for the two scenes he
496
00:22:37.410 --> 00:22:37.859
wants me to.
497
00:22:38.150 --> 00:22:40.220
You were going for the role of his brother.
498
00:22:40.380 --> 00:22:44.420
His brother and mother. And Debbie Reynolds was already cast.
499
00:22:44.779 --> 00:22:47.640
And I come in, I put my sides on the
500
00:22:47.700 --> 00:22:49.980
desk in front of me and he's on the other
501
00:22:50.019 --> 00:22:51.220
side of the desk. It's just he and I, and
502
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:55.099
we're going to read together and the sides are there
503
00:22:55.140 --> 00:22:56.579
so I can see them, but I know them. And
504
00:22:56.880 --> 00:22:58.640
I say my first or second line and he goes,
505
00:22:58.740 --> 00:23:02.680
I want you to do the movie. I was like,
506
00:23:03.380 --> 00:23:05.599
all right. And that was it. And, uh, I didn't
507
00:23:05.619 --> 00:23:09.609
have to read anymore. And, um, And all I wanted
508
00:23:09.630 --> 00:23:11.789
to do was improvise with him. So every day I'd
509
00:23:11.809 --> 00:23:15.509
be like, come on, Albert, let's just fuck around. And
510
00:23:15.529 --> 00:23:17.690
as long as we got what he needed, he would
511
00:23:17.710 --> 00:23:21.869
let us play around. And he's amazing. I mean, what
512
00:23:21.910 --> 00:23:24.250
a gift that was to be able to... And he
513
00:23:24.289 --> 00:23:28.339
had the cushiest deal. He had some... It was David Geffen,
514
00:23:28.359 --> 00:23:33.609
I think, was his producer. And they got, he got like,
515
00:23:33.849 --> 00:23:37.200
you know, $ 25 million to make this movie that was
516
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:42.279
just three of us, basically. And we would shoot seven,
517
00:23:42.339 --> 00:23:44.180
eight hours a day. That would be the whole day,
518
00:23:44.339 --> 00:23:46.700
one scene, which was like, you know, to me, that
519
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.599
was just utter luxury. I was used to coming out
520
00:23:48.619 --> 00:23:52.549
of like nine pages a day. And so to get
521
00:23:52.589 --> 00:23:54.970
to go to that kind of environment was just so
522
00:23:55.049 --> 00:23:57.029
relaxed and we could do what we wanted and take
523
00:23:57.089 --> 00:24:01.410
our time. And then Albert was just a great, You know,
524
00:24:01.470 --> 00:24:04.470
he just was really, he's so funny. And improvising with
525
00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:07.740
him was such a joy.
526
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:14.220
He's, you know, he's funny, but he also makes important movies.
527
00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:14.960
Yeah.
528
00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:18.509
That really take a good look at sort of the
529
00:24:18.569 --> 00:24:19.589
human condition.
530
00:24:19.630 --> 00:24:22.390
And, you know, I. He's super smart. I mean.
531
00:24:22.430 --> 00:24:23.789
I was telling my son who's 19.
532
00:24:23.789 --> 00:24:24.769
Albert Einstein, right?
533
00:24:24.890 --> 00:24:25.430
Yeah, he is.
534
00:24:25.470 --> 00:24:27.500
That's his name. I told my son the other day,
535
00:24:27.579 --> 00:24:31.730
I go, what? watch Defending Your Life again, would you please?
536
00:24:31.750 --> 00:24:33.529
And he said, oh, I saw it with you, and
537
00:24:33.569 --> 00:24:35.329
I was like, nine. I go, I know, but now
538
00:24:35.369 --> 00:24:37.609
you're 19, and you're going to have a different perspective
539
00:24:38.450 --> 00:24:38.700
on it.
540
00:24:38.880 --> 00:24:39.700
Such a great movie.
541
00:24:40.259 --> 00:24:45.380
There's a scene, I love that movie, because it's super funny,
542
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:50.559
but it's also really smart, but it's also a pretty
543
00:24:51.259 --> 00:24:54.700
interesting perspective on how you should live your life.
544
00:24:54.829 --> 00:24:55.529
Absolutely. Absolutely.
545
00:24:55.990 --> 00:24:59.130
And the scene, I don't know why there's one scene
546
00:25:00.009 --> 00:25:02.089
that makes me laugh the hardest in that movie, and
547
00:25:02.130 --> 00:25:03.130
I can't figure it out.
548
00:25:03.230 --> 00:25:05.670
I probably talked to Albert Brooks.
549
00:25:05.490 --> 00:25:08.670
About it when I was interviewing him a million years ago. Now, Andrew,
550
00:25:08.690 --> 00:25:11.769
you've got to find it. But the scene where they
551
00:25:11.809 --> 00:25:14.710
go back to young Albert Brooks, and he gets accused
552
00:25:14.769 --> 00:25:21.339
of stealing paint back when anyone could. Right, right. Oh, no,
553
00:25:21.380 --> 00:25:23.000
when he's looking back at his life. He's looking back
554
00:25:23.140 --> 00:25:25.680
at his life. It's in the middle of the film.
555
00:25:26.869 --> 00:25:30.609
And they're going back, and they're examining his life. And
556
00:25:30.730 --> 00:25:34.109
it's really kind of an interesting thought. It's like you're
557
00:25:34.150 --> 00:25:37.950
in court, and you have a lawyer, and there's also
558
00:25:37.970 --> 00:25:40.519
a prosecutor, and we're trying to figure out what kind
559
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:41.220
of life you live.
560
00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:43.259
Well, that's what we hear, right? You're going to have
561
00:25:43.299 --> 00:25:45.619
to deal with that at your day of reckoning.
562
00:25:45.859 --> 00:25:46.640
Right, right.
563
00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:49.779
So who are you, the person that picks up the
564
00:25:49.839 --> 00:25:52.279
wrapper with Rob or leaves it on the ground?
565
00:25:52.299 --> 00:25:52.680
That's right.
566
00:25:52.700 --> 00:25:53.640
I get points for that.
567
00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:55.259
You get points. I'm building points.
568
00:25:55.680 --> 00:26:00.069
So- there's that great scene where he stole the paint,
569
00:26:00.130 --> 00:26:04.859
but the teacher, who's perfect, they're like a weird comb-over, goes, class,
570
00:26:05.339 --> 00:26:11.299
how much is the paint? And half the class goes $ 3,
571
00:26:10.460 --> 00:26:11.859
but the other half.
572
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:14.400
Goes $ 3.
573
00:26:12.140 --> 00:26:13.269
50.
574
00:26:13.269 --> 00:26:14.930
And he goes, how much are the brushes?
575
00:26:14.930 --> 00:26:16.329
$ 3.
576
00:26:14.930 --> 00:26:15.630
50.
577
00:26:15.630 --> 00:26:19.809
$ 8. And what does that combine? And then half the
578
00:26:19.849 --> 00:26:23.609
class says $ 11, and the other half says $ 11.
579
00:26:22.930 --> 00:26:23.269
50.
580
00:26:23.269 --> 00:26:26.690
And I don't know why. I love stuff in movies
581
00:26:26.710 --> 00:26:30.220
that doesn't need to be there. I don't know why
582
00:26:30.259 --> 00:26:31.460
you would even write that.
583
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.359
It's not even really... I don't remember it.
584
00:26:34.420 --> 00:26:42.000
It's not even a gag, but it's just there. It's... Well,
585
00:26:42.019 --> 00:26:43.599
he's very idiosyncratic.
586
00:26:43.640 --> 00:26:46.440
You know. He's got these ideas that sometimes that don't track,
587
00:26:46.500 --> 00:26:50.720
but they work. You know, their texture, you know, it's
588
00:26:50.759 --> 00:26:53.960
not all– everything is in gags with him. By the way,
589
00:26:54.009 --> 00:26:55.910
he wrote a novel that was really cool called 2022
590
00:26:55.910 --> 00:26:56.450
or 23.
591
00:26:56.450 --> 00:26:57.950
Yes.
592
00:26:58.210 --> 00:27:00.809
It was really interesting.
593
00:27:01.069 --> 00:27:02.109
Yes, I agree.
594
00:27:02.289 --> 00:27:06.309
So I don't know if underappreciated is how we should
595
00:27:06.349 --> 00:27:09.990
say it, but– But in a world full of, like,
596
00:27:10.230 --> 00:27:16.430
funny people, he deserves his own rest stop.
597
00:27:17.509 --> 00:27:20.150
Absolutely. With his name on it. Absolutely, yeah.
598
00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:23.220
So that had to be just a thrill.
599
00:27:23.339 --> 00:27:25.460
It was the coolest, and I hung out with him
600
00:27:25.500 --> 00:27:28.880
a bit, and I just, yeah, it was a gift.
601
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:31.579
You know, it's such a blessing to get to work
602
00:27:31.619 --> 00:27:35.450
with people like that, to spend time with them, you know. It...
603
00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:41.170
It really feels... I feel grateful for, like, hanging out
604
00:27:41.210 --> 00:27:45.190
with him or Redford or, you know, all the different...
605
00:27:45.210 --> 00:27:49.150
Even in Roland Jaffe, who directed The Grey House, is,
606
00:27:49.349 --> 00:27:50.970
you know, I don't know if you know his work,
607
00:27:51.019 --> 00:27:53.319
but he's one of the... I've worked with him three
608
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:56.279
times now. He's a master filmmaker. He made a movie
609
00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:58.980
called The Mission, and he made The Killing Fields, and... Yeah,
610
00:27:59.259 --> 00:28:02.279
he's been around. Spending time with that guy was just
611
00:28:02.319 --> 00:28:06.589
such a gift. I mean, he just... Yeah. People.
612
00:28:07.549 --> 00:28:10.190
Then also, you know, Robert Redford, you know, these people
613
00:28:10.230 --> 00:28:14.339
aren't around forever. You know, it's really incredible that you
614
00:28:14.380 --> 00:28:19.839
got to spend time with people like that. I mean,
615
00:28:19.900 --> 00:28:22.400
especially as you get older, you just start thinking about,
616
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:26.200
you know, sometimes, I don't know why, but someone will go, hey,
617
00:28:26.259 --> 00:28:29.440
Norm MacDonald, this or that. I'm like, yeah, he's gone.
618
00:28:29.609 --> 00:28:31.890
But I got to hang out with him and do
619
00:28:31.950 --> 00:28:35.799
stuff with him. And it's even wilder when you. like
620
00:28:35.839 --> 00:28:38.180
for someone like Redford, for me, you know, I grew
621
00:28:38.299 --> 00:28:40.420
up watching him before I had any thought I'd be
622
00:28:40.460 --> 00:28:42.349
doing this. And then all of a sudden I'm going
623
00:28:42.369 --> 00:28:45.029
to his house, you know, and it's like, and then
624
00:28:45.049 --> 00:28:47.569
I'm working with him and then I'm, you know, he
625
00:28:47.630 --> 00:28:49.539
was a bit of a mentor for a while for me. And,
626
00:28:49.710 --> 00:28:53.009
you know, that, that, that, I always think it's a
627
00:28:53.049 --> 00:28:56.150
kind of like a synchronicity of something, you know, that, like,
628
00:28:57.190 --> 00:28:59.880
that kid in me knew something when I was watching,
629
00:28:59.900 --> 00:29:02.619
because I was so intrigued by him, right? But somewhere
630
00:29:02.700 --> 00:29:06.170
I knew, you know, if you look at, time being
631
00:29:06.210 --> 00:29:08.450
not linear and all that kind of nonsense, you know,
632
00:29:09.130 --> 00:29:11.819
somewhere I knew something and, and it was true that
633
00:29:11.859 --> 00:29:13.599
I was going to be involved with this guy.
634
00:29:14.859 --> 00:29:16.920
Yeah. I, I know him as a good dude.
635
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:18.380
I don't know him personally.
636
00:29:18.660 --> 00:29:22.660
There is a kind of a, a yardstick you can
637
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:26.400
kind of measure people by, which is when you make
638
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:29.559
a documentary, if they agree to be in it, they're
639
00:29:29.579 --> 00:29:30.440
always cool.
640
00:29:31.140 --> 00:29:33.299
If they disagree, then they're kind of douchey.
641
00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:34.480
Wait, wait, I'm lost. What?
642
00:29:34.789 --> 00:29:36.750
I made a documentary about Paul Newman.
643
00:29:37.369 --> 00:29:37.829
Oh, you did?
644
00:29:38.049 --> 00:29:38.930
Yeah, I did.
645
00:29:38.970 --> 00:29:39.390
Which one?
646
00:29:41.380 --> 00:29:46.000
I made it about his racing life, his automobile racing life.
647
00:29:46.019 --> 00:29:46.539
What's it called?
648
00:29:46.980 --> 00:29:50.079
It's called Winning the Racing Life of Paul Newman. It's
649
00:29:50.500 --> 00:29:54.769
based somewhat on a book that I'd received.
650
00:29:54.809 --> 00:29:57.210
How cool. I didn't know that. I love Paul Newman.
651
00:29:57.750 --> 00:30:00.809
Yeah, we'll find the trailer for it at some point.
652
00:30:01.130 --> 00:30:05.819
But it's a good doc, but it's really only Paul Newman,
653
00:30:05.839 --> 00:30:07.039
the race car driver.
654
00:30:07.099 --> 00:30:08.099
And you interviewed Bob.
655
00:30:09.160 --> 00:30:13.720
Yeah, and many, many people in his life. It's a
656
00:30:13.779 --> 00:30:16.980
sort of a doc that has Robert Redford and Mario
657
00:30:17.019 --> 00:30:20.059
Andretti in it, which I don't know. if those guys
658
00:30:20.140 --> 00:30:23.089
share docks too often because it's a different group, but
659
00:30:23.569 --> 00:30:25.990
you have to talk to Robert Redford and you have
660
00:30:26.009 --> 00:30:27.359
to talk to Mario Andretti.
661
00:30:27.460 --> 00:30:29.720
Well, Rob, Bob liked his Porsches. I remember we were staying,
662
00:30:29.740 --> 00:30:31.559
Fisher and I actually were staying in a house he
663
00:30:31.599 --> 00:30:35.529
lent us in, um, Outside of Santa Fe. And he
664
00:30:35.589 --> 00:30:41.200
had this gray, beautiful, vintage Porsche in the garage. Oh.
665
00:30:41.220 --> 00:30:42.539
But he didn't give us the keys to that.
666
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:43.220
It was an old one.
667
00:30:43.440 --> 00:30:46.160
Yeah. It was a 904, I think. It was like
668
00:30:46.200 --> 00:30:46.839
a race car.
669
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:47.140
Yeah.
670
00:30:47.339 --> 00:30:50.519
Yes. It was beautiful. Very expensive, by the way, now.
671
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:51.039
Right.
672
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:52.880
But he never left us the key. He left us
673
00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:54.809
the house, but not the keys to it. So all
674
00:30:54.829 --> 00:30:56.970
week we were looking around, where's the key to the garage?
675
00:30:56.990 --> 00:30:59.009
Because we weren't going to drive it, but we wanted
676
00:30:59.029 --> 00:31:03.230
to just sit in it. I'll play the trailer for it.
677
00:31:03.369 --> 00:31:05.589
Do you have the clip with Bob?
678
00:31:05.849 --> 00:31:06.029
No.
679
00:31:06.710 --> 00:31:07.690
It may be in the trailer.
680
00:31:08.529 --> 00:31:11.190
Yeah, I would think. When you get out to that track,
681
00:31:11.230 --> 00:31:12.470
you sit down in that car.
682
00:31:13.430 --> 00:31:16.930
Whatever it is that's roiling around your head, it just
683
00:31:17.009 --> 00:31:18.289
goes right out the window.
684
00:31:22.589 --> 00:31:24.990
You could tell that this was a big, big thing
685
00:31:25.029 --> 00:31:25.549
in his life.
686
00:31:25.789 --> 00:31:28.470
He'd made the movie winning and kind of fallen in
687
00:31:28.509 --> 00:31:29.269
love with racing.
688
00:31:29.829 --> 00:31:31.509
He was 48 years old when he started.
689
00:31:32.069 --> 00:31:34.250
The only thing that I ever found any grace in
690
00:31:34.269 --> 00:31:35.170
was an automobile.
691
00:31:35.269 --> 00:31:38.259
He wanted to be looked at as a driver, not
692
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:39.559
as an Academy Award winner.
693
00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:42.339
He wasn't so much divided between the two.
694
00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:44.759
It was that film would come second to racing.
695
00:31:44.779 --> 00:31:53.559
There he is. He was terrible at first. The studios
696
00:31:53.779 --> 00:31:55.420
didn't want him doing that.
697
00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:58.180
I mean, they think, oh, Jesus, what is he doing
698
00:31:58.200 --> 00:31:58.740
in a race car?
699
00:31:58.799 --> 00:31:59.599
Is he crazy?
700
00:31:59.619 --> 00:32:03.349
The only way that you're ever going to win a race.
701
00:32:03.190 --> 00:32:04.990
Is just to be right on the edge of it
702
00:32:05.069 --> 00:32:05.670
all the time.
703
00:32:07.269 --> 00:32:09.250
His whole career looked as though it were going to
704
00:32:09.309 --> 00:32:11.269
go down the drain because all he.
705
00:32:11.190 --> 00:32:14.609
Wanted to do was race. I think everybody wanted him
706
00:32:14.650 --> 00:32:16.410
to quit racing except him.
707
00:32:16.609 --> 00:32:19.549
They'll have to strap me down before they keep me
708
00:32:19.630 --> 00:32:20.730
out of these things.
709
00:32:20.750 --> 00:32:24.930
There was a tendency to write him off as an actor.
710
00:32:25.329 --> 00:32:27.410
It's very, very difficult with celebrities.
711
00:32:27.549 --> 00:32:29.970
They're used to being a winner, and in racing, you
712
00:32:29.990 --> 00:32:32.730
gotta pay your dues. You're always competing with yourself. You're
713
00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:34.920
trying to bring a little extra to your performance.
714
00:32:35.630 --> 00:32:38.000
I think he liked the camaraderie, the fellowship of that
715
00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:39.400
relationship with a fellow driver.
716
00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:42.279
There's nothing like it. It's not anything you can have
717
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:47.609
in Hollywood at all. He was really a good driver.
718
00:32:48.329 --> 00:32:50.630
It's Newman's fourth national championship.
719
00:32:50.690 --> 00:32:53.789
Pressure to win grew, as he did win, and people
720
00:32:53.849 --> 00:32:55.170
expected him to win again.
721
00:32:56.089 --> 00:32:58.250
People didn't even think of him as being a movie
722
00:32:58.269 --> 00:32:58.970
star racer.
723
00:32:58.990 --> 00:32:59.890
He was just a racer.
724
00:33:00.259 --> 00:33:02.880
He was that classic red-blooded American boy.
725
00:33:03.940 --> 00:33:06.279
Paul has a saying, I'm sure you've heard, where he says,
726
00:33:06.339 --> 00:33:08.460
winning isn't everything, it's just all there is.
727
00:33:09.339 --> 00:33:12.150
You see it with the Oscars. People vote.
728
00:33:12.269 --> 00:33:13.849
They say him or her.
729
00:33:16.529 --> 00:33:19.299
In this, you either cross the finish line first, and
730
00:33:19.380 --> 00:33:20.680
it's either him or her.
731
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:20.960
Cool.
732
00:33:24.609 --> 00:33:29.250

756
00:34:38.409 --> 00:34:40.469
Um, so when did you make this?
757
00:34:41.190 --> 00:34:42.949
Oh, 10 years ago, maybe.
758
00:34:43.289 --> 00:34:46.530
And were you, you were obviously, I know you're into cars,
759
00:34:46.670 --> 00:34:48.610
but you, you were a fan of, of Newman's or
760
00:34:48.659 --> 00:34:50.539
just the idea of him being like, well, how did
761
00:34:50.579 --> 00:34:52.199
that come?
762
00:34:52.219 --> 00:34:54.719
I own 14 of his race cars.
763
00:34:55.460 --> 00:34:55.840
Oh, wow.
764
00:34:56.320 --> 00:34:59.900
The cars you see in that trailer, most of them
765
00:34:59.980 --> 00:35:00.239
I own.
766
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:01.579
Oh, no way. Cool. Yeah.
767
00:35:01.639 --> 00:35:02.940
So then I raced them.
768
00:35:03.780 --> 00:35:06.820
So then I was like, somebody's got to make a
769
00:35:06.860 --> 00:35:11.570
movie about, Oh, what would happen? Well, no, what would
770
00:35:11.630 --> 00:35:16.730
happen to me is I would be racing Paul Newman's cars.
771
00:35:16.969 --> 00:35:20.940
And then people like Paul Newman, what? And I'd be like,
772
00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:25.599
race is race cars. They go, The popcorn guy? I'd go, no,
773
00:35:25.699 --> 00:35:26.719
he raced cars.
774
00:35:26.860 --> 00:35:27.920
And they'd go, I don't know.
775
00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:31.300
So then I talked to enough people who had no
776
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:34.860
idea that he raced cars that I was motivated to go, well,
777
00:35:34.900 --> 00:35:38.320
somebody's got to come out with a doc that shows.
778
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:42.699
Because I knew everything about his car racing career because
779
00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:45.599
I had the cars and I would talk to. his own.
780
00:35:45.780 --> 00:35:49.219
Did you talk to him? No, he was dead by
781
00:35:49.260 --> 00:35:50.019
the time I made this.
782
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:52.980
I often think of that phrase that he said, which
783
00:35:53.179 --> 00:35:55.519
is before he even said it here, I knew it
784
00:35:55.619 --> 00:35:57.550
was going to be in there. It's the only thing
785
00:35:57.570 --> 00:36:01.840
I've ever done with any grace. Which is so interesting
786
00:36:01.889 --> 00:36:06.050
because if you were looking for a way to describe
787
00:36:06.090 --> 00:36:09.829
his film persona, you would say graceful. And yet he
788
00:36:10.050 --> 00:36:12.809
didn't see it that way. And also there's something interesting
789
00:36:12.829 --> 00:36:18.130
in that footage where he seemed so much more himself
790
00:36:18.250 --> 00:36:21.699
in those environments than he did as a movie star.
791
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:24.219
He just seems like a different guy, like a regular guy.
792
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:32.559
Yeah, the story that would keep being repeated from Bob Sharp,
793
00:36:32.619 --> 00:36:36.079
who's his team owner, with him and all the other
794
00:36:36.280 --> 00:36:41.000
people that were in his galaxy of racing, they would
795
00:36:41.019 --> 00:36:42.019
all say the same thing.
796
00:36:42.059 --> 00:36:44.420
They'd go... If you wanted to.
797
00:36:44.449 --> 00:36:48.449
Talk cars or racing or anything with Paul, he'll sit
798
00:36:48.469 --> 00:36:51.130
with you for an hour. If you want to start
799
00:36:51.170 --> 00:36:55.550
bringing up Hollywood, he had to leave. And they all
800
00:36:55.610 --> 00:36:58.940
sort of said, I mean, it sort of, it became
801
00:36:59.019 --> 00:37:02.360
apparent that, you know, he was a little bit prickly
802
00:37:02.619 --> 00:37:04.920
if you wanted to come up to him and say,
803
00:37:05.860 --> 00:37:09.199
ask him to sign your autograph or talk hollywood or
804
00:37:09.449 --> 00:37:12.030
gossip or anything like that but he'd be at the
805
00:37:12.090 --> 00:37:15.889
track all weekend yeah and you go to road atlanta
806
00:37:15.929 --> 00:37:18.630
you got to live at road atlanta because road atlanta
807
00:37:18.650 --> 00:37:21.530
is way outside of atlanta right and you have to
808
00:37:21.610 --> 00:37:24.150
set up a trailer right and that's where all the
809
00:37:24.690 --> 00:37:28.300
salad dressing came from so he'd barbecue for the crew
810
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:30.429
you have to have it's like a Look how a
811
00:37:30.530 --> 00:37:33.349
small army has to move in for the weekend with
812
00:37:33.369 --> 00:37:35.190
the mechanics and the backups and the parts.
813
00:37:35.210 --> 00:37:36.909
It's like a movie company, basically. Yeah, yeah.
814
00:37:36.949 --> 00:37:41.360
Trailers start pulling in and qualifying on practice on Thursday
815
00:37:41.389 --> 00:37:43.300
and qualifying on Friday, race on Saturday.
816
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:43.880
It's a whole world.
817
00:37:43.900 --> 00:37:44.739
It's a whole world.
818
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:45.920
And he would live there.
819
00:37:46.280 --> 00:37:49.519
And he'd live amongst the drivers and the mechanics and
820
00:37:49.960 --> 00:37:50.840
everybody who was there.
821
00:37:50.940 --> 00:37:51.199
Right.
822
00:37:51.860 --> 00:37:54.179
But they didn't bother him with movie stuff.
823
00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:54.519
Right.
824
00:37:54.699 --> 00:37:56.280
They were talking car stuff.
825
00:37:56.300 --> 00:37:56.639
Yeah.
826
00:37:56.820 --> 00:37:59.699
And he liked that. And yes, he seemed like he
827
00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:01.440
was very relaxed in that environment.
828
00:38:01.500 --> 00:38:01.860
Yeah.
829
00:38:02.260 --> 00:38:05.699
But he lived in Connecticut. He didn't live in Encino.
830
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:06.469
Right.
831
00:38:06.530 --> 00:38:07.650
He lived in Connecticut and New York.
832
00:38:07.769 --> 00:38:10.329
He didn't want to be part of it.
833
00:38:10.409 --> 00:38:15.630
I guess not. Yeah, he definitely... But he loved it, too.
834
00:38:15.789 --> 00:38:19.570
You know, he loved acting. He loved stories. He loved moviemaking.
835
00:38:19.829 --> 00:38:21.659
I mean, he may have gotten sick of the pomp
836
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:25.019
and circumstances around it. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
837
00:38:25.199 --> 00:38:29.380
I definitely, I mean, in a way, going back to,
838
00:38:29.400 --> 00:38:31.920
did you see Ethan Hawke's documentary about him?
839
00:38:31.960 --> 00:38:34.389
The Gray House. Yeah. Except for, I'll tell you, I
840
00:38:34.389 --> 00:38:36.650
have a problem with that. I'll tell you why.
841
00:38:37.829 --> 00:38:42.719
He's kind of Costner-esque, and Costner loves the story. He
842
00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:45.559
just doesn't want to live in Hollywood.
843
00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:47.940
And deal with that, the mess. You know what I mean?
844
00:38:48.059 --> 00:38:49.659
It's just understandable. Yes.
845
00:38:50.039 --> 00:38:50.639
Ethan Hawke.
846
00:38:50.760 --> 00:38:52.210
All right, now I'm looking at poor Andrew.
847
00:38:53.769 --> 00:38:59.489
That paint thing. It's probably, it's five-eighths into the movie,
848
00:39:00.070 --> 00:39:00.710
I would say.
849
00:39:01.869 --> 00:39:02.530
I'd say if the.
850
00:39:02.469 --> 00:39:06.730
Movie is hour and 45, it's an hour in, as
851
00:39:06.809 --> 00:39:07.150
I would say.
852
00:39:07.170 --> 00:39:10.340
But this is the problem with Hollywood.
853
00:39:11.469 --> 00:39:15.550
Even Hawk made a whole thing about Newman, and there
854
00:39:15.570 --> 00:39:18.780
was like 21 seconds of, oh, and he liked to
855
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:21.800
drive cars. Now let's go on to the time he
856
00:39:21.820 --> 00:39:25.429
did this Shakespearean play. And I'm like, his number one
857
00:39:25.550 --> 00:39:26.949
thing was driving cars.
858
00:39:26.989 --> 00:39:27.730
Right, right, right, right.
859
00:39:27.849 --> 00:39:29.969
And even Hawk's number one thing is acting.
860
00:39:30.010 --> 00:39:30.349
Acting.
861
00:39:30.389 --> 00:39:34.809
Right. So now it's an interesting thing. Now you're going
862
00:39:34.829 --> 00:39:37.650
to make a documentary about a guy whose number one
863
00:39:37.670 --> 00:39:39.070
thing was car driving.
864
00:39:39.130 --> 00:39:39.429
Right.
865
00:39:39.489 --> 00:39:42.349
He had a 40-year car racing career, and that's all
866
00:39:42.389 --> 00:39:43.190
he wanted to do.
867
00:39:43.210 --> 00:39:43.570
Yeah, yeah.
868
00:39:43.630 --> 00:39:45.230
But all you want to do is act.
869
00:39:45.590 --> 00:39:46.449
I can forgive him that.
870
00:39:46.550 --> 00:39:46.670
I can.
871
00:39:46.690 --> 00:39:47.989
Because that's his, you can't.
872
00:39:48.210 --> 00:39:50.989
Well, he made like a three-part doc. He should have
873
00:39:51.030 --> 00:39:54.309
given him three minutes of racing. Look, here's what I'm saying.
874
00:39:55.650 --> 00:39:56.369
I don't know.
875
00:39:57.780 --> 00:39:59.900
What is your passion outside of acting.
876
00:39:59.940 --> 00:40:00.300
Music.
877
00:40:00.940 --> 00:40:01.380
Music.
878
00:40:01.659 --> 00:40:01.920
Okay.
879
00:40:02.079 --> 00:40:03.699
Music, creating music, and music.
880
00:40:03.739 --> 00:40:04.199
Yeah. All right.
881
00:40:04.300 --> 00:40:06.519
So if I made a three-part doc about you and
882
00:40:06.579 --> 00:40:09.780
didn't touch on your love of music, then I would
883
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:10.880
be a douche.
884
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:14.840
You wouldn't have understood me. Right.
885
00:40:14.860 --> 00:40:17.199
You did a big long doc about Paul Newman and
886
00:40:17.300 --> 00:40:20.940
didn't get what his raison d'etre was, like his essence
887
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.980
was racing. And you didn't cover it because you're not
888
00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:24.920
interested in cars.
889
00:40:24.980 --> 00:40:26.440
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I'm saying. I mean, I
890
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:27.420
get your point. It's a valid point.
891
00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:29.050
Thank you, douche.
892
00:40:29.619 --> 00:40:33.369
All right. Who's a douche? Ethan Hawke. No, he's not.
893
00:40:33.389 --> 00:40:35.230
For not covering his racing.
894
00:40:35.590 --> 00:40:36.230
All right, here it is.
895
00:40:36.510 --> 00:40:37.250
This is the scene.
896
00:40:37.289 --> 00:40:41.230
Sorry. Oh, this is the Albert? Yeah, I took 40 minutes,
897
00:40:41.269 --> 00:40:42.170
but yeah, enjoy it.
898
00:40:43.369 --> 00:40:45.869
I don't know why. Now everybody can say to me,
899
00:40:46.650 --> 00:40:49.789
pause it, why is this funny to me?
900
00:40:50.210 --> 00:40:50.769
I don't know.
901
00:40:51.389 --> 00:40:54.130
It's funny because it doesn't need to be in the movie.
902
00:40:54.170 --> 00:40:57.030
All right. I'm on probation for stealing those books.
903
00:40:57.530 --> 00:40:59.800
Now they're going to think I stole this. I'm going
904
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:02.340
to be expelled. You won't be expelled.
905
00:41:02.429 --> 00:41:03.239
Of course I will.
906
00:41:03.320 --> 00:41:05.760
I'm already on probation. I'm in big trouble.
907
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:08.420
I love the teacher.
908
00:41:09.659 --> 00:41:10.739
Good afternoon, class.
909
00:41:11.400 --> 00:41:13.239
Good afternoon, Mr.
910
00:41:13.400 --> 00:41:14.320
Codworth.
911
00:41:14.760 --> 00:41:17.570
Continue working on the assignments you started last Tuesday.
912
00:41:19.550 --> 00:41:20.610
Here, take these.
913
00:41:20.809 --> 00:41:23.349
Really? I'll say I lost mine.
914
00:41:23.630 --> 00:41:24.849
But you'll get in trouble.
915
00:41:25.010 --> 00:41:25.610
Just do it.
916
00:41:28.530 --> 00:41:29.630
This guy's great.
917
00:41:29.730 --> 00:41:32.809
Daniel, where are your supplies? I left them at home.
918
00:41:33.030 --> 00:41:33.610
You left them?
919
00:41:34.550 --> 00:41:35.130
I lost them.
920
00:41:35.780 --> 00:41:39.179
What did you do? Lose them or leave them? Well, both.
921
00:41:39.280 --> 00:41:42.420
I left them and I lost them. Where are your supplies, Daniel?
922
00:41:42.460 --> 00:41:44.920
What's going on? Do you know how much these things cost?
923
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:47.840
Please tell Daniel how much the paints cost.
924
00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:51.840
$ 10.
925
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:50.699
And the brushes?
926
00:41:50.699 --> 00:41:54.699
$ 3.
927
00:41:53.099 --> 00:41:53.960
What's the total?
928
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:56.800
$ 13.
929
00:41:55.380 --> 00:41:59.599
You don't have any paint. Totally.
930
00:41:59.619 --> 00:42:01.980
I don't know if I'm laughing because you primed me
931
00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:02.800
for it.
932
00:42:02.860 --> 00:42:04.340
It's totally unnecessary.
933
00:42:04.360 --> 00:42:05.719
It's very funny, though. I don't know if I would
934
00:42:05.760 --> 00:42:06.510
have picked up on it.
935
00:42:07.570 --> 00:42:09.630
It's those kinds of details.
936
00:42:09.670 --> 00:42:11.349
That's why a Ferrari is great.
937
00:42:11.389 --> 00:42:11.769
You're right.
938
00:42:11.789 --> 00:42:12.690
The little stuff.
939
00:42:12.750 --> 00:42:14.449
It's very funny. It's very funny.
940
00:42:14.550 --> 00:42:16.050
I want to hear him do it one more time.
941
00:42:16.090 --> 00:42:17.170
Just the number part.
942
00:42:17.250 --> 00:42:21.130
It was $ 10 and $ 3 and $ 3.
943
00:42:18.610 --> 00:42:19.869
50.
944
00:42:19.869 --> 00:42:21.909
And by the way, he had to coach these kids.
945
00:42:21.929 --> 00:42:22.349
Right, right.
946
00:42:22.389 --> 00:42:24.429
He had to go, you say $ 3. Because you know,
947
00:42:24.449 --> 00:42:26.539
it probably was written as one. And then as he
948
00:42:26.559 --> 00:42:29.739
was doing it, he says, no, no, you guys say $ 3. 50.
949
00:42:28.500 --> 00:42:31.960
And then when you add them, the same people that
950
00:42:32.019 --> 00:42:32.239
said $ 3.
951
00:42:32.139 --> 00:42:33.300
50 are going to make it $ 13.
952
00:42:33.199 --> 00:42:33.260
50.
953
00:42:33.239 --> 00:42:35.199
And then the other ones are going to make it.
954
00:42:35.219 --> 00:42:36.619
We didn't get to that part. Oh, yeah.
955
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:38.760
They do it. Here it is.
956
00:42:38.969 --> 00:42:39.809
Here, take these.
957
00:42:39.969 --> 00:42:41.309
Really?
958
00:42:41.829 --> 00:42:42.789
I'll say I lost mine.
959
00:42:43.090 --> 00:42:44.289
But you'll get in trouble.
960
00:42:44.469 --> 00:42:45.039
Just do it.
961
00:42:46.449 --> 00:42:47.489
He looks just like Albert.
962
00:42:47.710 --> 00:42:48.170
He does.
963
00:42:49.190 --> 00:42:50.630
Daniel, where are your supplies?
964
00:42:51.429 --> 00:42:52.230
I left them at home.
965
00:42:52.489 --> 00:42:53.050
You left them?
966
00:42:53.989 --> 00:42:54.570
I lost them.
967
00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:57.159
What did you do? Lose them or leave them?
968
00:42:57.900 --> 00:42:58.619
Well, both.
969
00:42:58.719 --> 00:43:00.519
I left them and I lost them.
970
00:43:00.539 --> 00:43:01.900
Where are your supplies, Daniel?
971
00:43:01.920 --> 00:43:02.699
What's going on?
972
00:43:02.739 --> 00:43:05.539
Do you know how much these things cost? Class, tell
973
00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:07.260
Daniel how much the paints cost.
974
00:43:07.260 --> 00:43:11.260
$ 10.
975
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:10.139
And the brushes?
976
00:43:10.139 --> 00:43:14.139
$ 3.
977
00:43:12.559 --> 00:43:14.940
What's the total? $ 13.
978
00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:21.090
If you don't have any paint, you can't be an artist, Daniel.
979
00:43:21.110 --> 00:43:23.170
All right. It's funny, but I swear I really don't
980
00:43:23.190 --> 00:43:25.090
know if I would have laughed if you hadn't. What's
981
00:43:25.150 --> 00:43:27.800
funny that's into itself is that I didn't pick up
982
00:43:27.860 --> 00:43:28.059
on it.
983
00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:30.599
Well, there's so many great jokes in it.
984
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:31.019
Right.
985
00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:36.239
But all movies... at least try for those jokes. It's
986
00:43:36.260 --> 00:43:38.309
the little ones that nobody noticed.
987
00:43:38.329 --> 00:43:40.469
But it's not a joke. No, it's not. It's funny
988
00:43:40.530 --> 00:43:44.090
because it's just real. It's like that the kids are all,
989
00:43:44.590 --> 00:43:47.449
you know, somehow they got the information wrong.
990
00:43:48.519 --> 00:43:51.360
And that the class got split between the $ 3 and
991
00:43:51.380 --> 00:43:52.559
the $ 3.
992
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:52.739
50 group.
993
00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:56.579
You know somewhere there's an outtake of the teacher going, now, okay,
994
00:43:56.739 --> 00:43:57.219
who said $ 3.
995
00:43:57.059 --> 00:43:57.139
50?
996
00:43:57.139 --> 00:44:03.280
Right, but that's... That's what makes someone a genius.
997
00:44:03.340 --> 00:44:05.199
It's the little... I agree.
998
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:06.889
It's the little stuff, you know?
999
00:44:06.929 --> 00:44:08.110
I agree. He is a genius.
1000
00:44:08.590 --> 00:44:13.309
And then, so, Quiz Show, which is an amazing film.
1001
00:44:13.369 --> 00:44:16.360
Which Paul Newman almost was in. Oh, really? Yeah, Bob
1002
00:44:16.380 --> 00:44:20.320
wanted to cast him For a while. And Paul Schofield part,
1003
00:44:20.340 --> 00:44:25.269
which is Rafe's father, Mark Van Doren. And I don't
1004
00:44:25.289 --> 00:44:29.170
think Paul wanted to do it. But he wouldn't have
1005
00:44:29.190 --> 00:44:32.750
been as well cast as Schofield ultimately was. Let's see.
1006
00:44:32.829 --> 00:44:36.230
What year was that? We shot it in, I think, 93. Hmm.
1007
00:44:36.250 --> 00:44:39.880
I wonder if he was running in the Trans Am
1008
00:44:39.960 --> 00:44:41.460
series in 93.
1009
00:44:41.460 --> 00:44:43.559
That could have been a reason, too. But that's when
1010
00:44:43.599 --> 00:44:45.519
I met him was at the opening.
1011
00:44:45.539 --> 00:44:45.610
And.
1012
00:44:46.869 --> 00:44:49.250
I remember he walked by. I didn't want to bother
1013
00:44:49.269 --> 00:44:52.030
him because I, you know, I would only talk about movies,
1014
00:44:52.070 --> 00:44:55.190
probably not race cars. So I kind of sensed that.
1015
00:44:55.449 --> 00:44:57.550
But he came walking by me and squeezed my elbow,
1016
00:44:57.809 --> 00:45:00.570
which was like the highlight of my night. Oh, Newman, really?
1017
00:45:00.610 --> 00:45:00.809
Yeah.
1018
00:45:01.210 --> 00:45:02.449
So he came to the opening.
1019
00:45:02.469 --> 00:45:02.699
Yeah.
1020
00:45:03.010 --> 00:45:04.159
God, that had to be a thrill.
1021
00:45:04.360 --> 00:45:08.019
It was so, I mean, yeah. Everyone was at that opening.
1022
00:45:08.059 --> 00:45:11.739
But the set was constantly being visited by people. And,
1023
00:45:11.880 --> 00:45:14.760
you know, everyone just wanted to be around Bob.
1024
00:45:15.380 --> 00:45:15.599
Yeah.
1025
00:45:15.619 --> 00:45:17.389
Exactly. Redford. Yeah.
1026
00:45:17.869 --> 00:45:19.730
That movie was nominated, right?
1027
00:45:19.849 --> 00:45:23.650
It was nominated for Best Pictures, I think Screenplay. Schofield
1028
00:45:24.030 --> 00:45:24.630
was nominated.
1029
00:45:25.170 --> 00:45:28.590
Who won everything that year? I think it might have
1030
00:45:28.610 --> 00:45:29.690
been a Pulp Fiction year.
1031
00:45:29.690 --> 00:45:30.570
94?
1032
00:45:30.570 --> 00:45:31.070
Yeah.
1033
00:45:31.449 --> 00:45:35.239
Yeah, I think that was a Pulp Fiction year.
1034
00:45:35.300 --> 00:45:35.519
Yeah.
1035
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:37.559
I think it was 94.
1036
00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:40.460
Which is understandable. I mean, that was such a seminal movie,
1037
00:45:40.519 --> 00:45:42.739
Pulp Fiction. It really was radical.
1038
00:45:43.179 --> 00:45:46.530
Well, they're... They're good movies, and then they're sort of
1039
00:45:46.869 --> 00:45:51.110
game-changer movies that sort of change the format of movies.
1040
00:45:51.170 --> 00:45:53.590
Quiz Show's a good classic. I mean, it still holds up.
1041
00:45:53.630 --> 00:45:58.989
I've seen it recently. It's a solid movie, especially in retrospect,
1042
00:45:59.070 --> 00:46:01.579
you know, because even in the 90s when it came out,
1043
00:46:01.619 --> 00:46:04.940
to think like, wait, that was, you know, people really
1044
00:46:04.980 --> 00:46:08.059
believed that a quiz show wasn't rigged, you know? But now,
1045
00:46:08.119 --> 00:46:11.750
with all this time, it still holds up. But... Pulp
1046
00:46:11.789 --> 00:46:14.769
Fiction is, as you say, a game changer.
1047
00:46:15.889 --> 00:46:22.570
You know, it's a good sign when your filmmaker, like Tarantino,
1048
00:46:22.590 --> 00:46:27.320
I will toggle back and forth. I'll be like, oh,
1049
00:46:27.500 --> 00:46:30.420
Inglourious Basterds, yeah. Oh, no, Django.
1050
00:46:30.599 --> 00:46:33.460
Oh, Once Upon a Time in Harlem. Oh, no, Pulp Fiction.
1051
00:46:34.179 --> 00:46:36.139
I'll just keep going back and forth.
1052
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:38.010
You mean in terms of what you think is the hierarchy?
1053
00:46:38.030 --> 00:46:40.010
It's like the Coen brothers, you know, with some of
1054
00:46:40.030 --> 00:46:40.469
their films.
1055
00:46:40.570 --> 00:46:43.730
It's like, Geez, I don't know where to, I don't
1056
00:46:43.769 --> 00:46:47.150
know that I could pick a definitive number one.
1057
00:46:47.269 --> 00:46:49.829
Doesn't he say Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, I think?
1058
00:46:51.409 --> 00:46:52.289
Is what?
1059
00:46:52.309 --> 00:46:55.750
He thinks his best film, I think. Or Inglourious Basterds,
1060
00:46:55.769 --> 00:46:57.030
I can't remember.
1061
00:46:57.340 --> 00:47:00.860
I don't know what he personally says. I was looking,
1062
00:47:01.840 --> 00:47:04.480
I was in Texas doing some shows a few weeks
1063
00:47:04.539 --> 00:47:08.860
ago and somehow the Coen brothers came up and they
1064
00:47:08.900 --> 00:47:14.179
did one of those top, 10 ranked Coen brothers.
1065
00:47:14.480 --> 00:47:16.920
I'm convinced though. They just do that to piss me off.
1066
00:47:17.420 --> 00:47:18.599
Piss you off. Yeah.
1067
00:47:18.659 --> 00:47:19.179
Personally.
1068
00:47:19.219 --> 00:47:19.739
Right. Yeah.
1069
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:20.610
Cause Rolling Stone.
1070
00:47:20.670 --> 00:47:21.250
I'll do that.
1071
00:47:21.269 --> 00:47:24.449
You know, they'll go Joan Jett, best guitar, rock guitar.
1072
00:47:24.530 --> 00:47:25.710
I'll go get the fuck out of here.
1073
00:47:25.730 --> 00:47:25.829
Right.
1074
00:47:26.070 --> 00:47:27.369
They're doing it to anger me.
1075
00:47:27.530 --> 00:47:27.809
Right.
1076
00:47:28.030 --> 00:47:28.210
Right.
1077
00:47:28.230 --> 00:47:30.489
Well, they engage you. That's half the battle. Yeah.
1078
00:47:30.530 --> 00:47:34.110
But it was the Coen brothers, uh, like top 10,
1079
00:47:34.110 --> 00:47:38.860
which was great. But it was, uh, Fargo. It was
1080
00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:40.199
not number one or whatever.
1081
00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:41.219
Well, no, no.
1082
00:47:42.230 --> 00:47:46.230
Something, there was quite a few films that were above
1083
00:47:46.329 --> 00:47:50.329
Raising Arizona. And I'm like, Raising Arizona is another game
1084
00:47:50.389 --> 00:47:51.630
changer film.
1085
00:47:51.650 --> 00:47:52.050
Yeah, yeah.
1086
00:47:52.329 --> 00:47:58.199
And it's a different, oh, you know what happened? Here's weird.
1087
00:47:58.889 --> 00:48:03.460
In Glorious Bastards, Tarantino considers his best. The Coen Brothers
1088
00:48:03.539 --> 00:48:08.130
top 10. Okay, here's what happened. I was thinking the
1089
00:48:08.190 --> 00:48:11.139
other day, like on movies that you like, you think
1090
00:48:11.199 --> 00:48:13.039
back on certain scenes, right?
1091
00:48:13.099 --> 00:48:13.260
Yeah.
1092
00:48:13.900 --> 00:48:19.719
And I love that whole Arizona thing, the guy who
1093
00:48:19.840 --> 00:48:22.139
owned the unpainted furniture store.
1094
00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:25.780
Who changed his name to Arizona.
1095
00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:26.519
Right.
1096
00:48:26.659 --> 00:48:30.619
And so there was a scene where they go, wait
1097
00:48:30.659 --> 00:48:31.349
a minute, is your.
1098
00:48:31.210 --> 00:48:33.809
Last name Arizona? Are your kids' names really Arizona?
1099
00:48:33.829 --> 00:48:33.929
Yeah.
1100
00:48:34.219 --> 00:48:36.920
He goes, no, my name's not at Real Arizona. He goes, well,
1101
00:48:36.980 --> 00:48:37.480
why didn't you?
1102
00:48:39.110 --> 00:48:43.809
I think the furniture store was called like Unpainted Arizona.
1103
00:48:44.090 --> 00:48:45.789
And he goes, well, would you.
1104
00:48:45.730 --> 00:48:49.769
Buy furniture from a place called Unpainted Huffhines? I was like,
1105
00:48:49.789 --> 00:48:52.969
that's funny. And then I was driving through Texas and
1106
00:48:52.989 --> 00:48:56.210
there was a big billboard like nominate John Huffhines.
1107
00:48:57.639 --> 00:48:58.119
Wait, now?
1108
00:48:58.440 --> 00:49:01.900
Now, like two weeks ago. And I started looking at it.
1109
00:49:01.920 --> 00:49:04.199
I was like, there is a guy named Huff Hines. Like,
1110
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:05.300
I didn't know.
1111
00:49:05.320 --> 00:49:07.860
I was thinking about it.
1112
00:49:08.340 --> 00:49:09.119
Nominate him for what?
1113
00:49:09.889 --> 00:49:13.050
They want him for city council or Congress.
1114
00:49:13.110 --> 00:49:15.989
But there's a completely not, he's not related. It's just coincidental.
1115
00:49:16.590 --> 00:49:17.889
That's a real name is what you're saying.
1116
00:49:18.090 --> 00:49:18.349
Yes.
1117
00:49:18.429 --> 00:49:19.949
And I was thinking is that.
1118
00:49:20.159 --> 00:49:21.199
A name? Right, right, right.
1119
00:49:21.380 --> 00:49:22.860
And I was thinking about when I was back in
1120
00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:25.699
LA and then three days later, I was in Texas
1121
00:49:25.739 --> 00:49:28.150
seeing a big sign that said, vote for Steve Huffman.
1122
00:49:28.170 --> 00:49:29.809
Yeah, and you should be betting on the stock market
1123
00:49:29.849 --> 00:49:30.250
or something.
1124
00:49:30.269 --> 00:49:30.510
I know.
1125
00:49:31.190 --> 00:49:33.030
Reader's poll, 10%.
1126
00:49:33.030 --> 00:49:35.989
Dawson, who is running for Texas Senate?
1127
00:49:36.409 --> 00:49:36.949
Huffines.
1128
00:49:37.849 --> 00:49:40.210
What's the dude's name? Corwin is one of them, right?
1129
00:49:40.690 --> 00:49:44.570
No, Huffines. Okay. That's what I'm saying. Not asking about Corwin.
1130
00:49:44.710 --> 00:49:45.429
All right, so wait a minute.
1131
00:49:45.969 --> 00:49:54.239
Raising Arizona is number six, which Miller's Crossing, number five. Oh, brother,
1132
00:49:54.280 --> 00:49:58.619
we're out there. But more than Raising Arizona, you idiots? Sorry,
1133
00:49:58.820 --> 00:50:00.960
I'm getting angry. No Country for Old Men should be
1134
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:05.260
number one. Fargo should be number.
1135
00:50:05.099 --> 00:50:05.320
One, too.
1136
00:50:05.340 --> 00:50:07.590
This must have to do with popularity. I'll bet you
1137
00:50:07.650 --> 00:50:09.769
the box office, oh, the big one.
1138
00:50:09.929 --> 00:50:10.969
Sorry.
1139
00:50:11.050 --> 00:50:12.210
But that's such a favorite.
1140
00:50:12.670 --> 00:50:17.409
I get it, but my God, no country for old men.
1141
00:50:17.429 --> 00:50:18.170
I mean, what a film.
1142
00:50:18.289 --> 00:50:19.329
What a masterpiece.
1143
00:50:19.449 --> 00:50:20.429
What a masterpiece.
1144
00:50:20.659 --> 00:50:22.980
Texas Senate is Corwin and Paxton.
1145
00:50:23.119 --> 00:50:25.840
I'm looking to see where Huffines is. I'll just put
1146
00:50:25.880 --> 00:50:28.760
his name in, like put Huff Hines in text.
1147
00:50:29.099 --> 00:50:33.420
It's so funny. It's not a real name. Did you
1148
00:50:33.460 --> 00:50:34.530
elect Huff Hines?
1149
00:50:35.300 --> 00:50:37.139
The dude's name is Huff Hines.
1150
00:50:37.340 --> 00:50:39.630
And it was so weird that I was just sitting
1151
00:50:39.690 --> 00:50:42.469
in my condo going, is that a name?
1152
00:50:42.530 --> 00:50:45.090
Is that a real name? Is there anyone? And then
1153
00:50:45.210 --> 00:50:48.030
I started thinking, I've never heard of anyone named Huff Hines.
1154
00:50:48.150 --> 00:50:50.389
I didn't go to high school. And then I pass
1155
00:50:50.449 --> 00:50:53.710
a big, big billboard.
1156
00:50:53.889 --> 00:50:54.150
Right.
1157
00:50:54.539 --> 00:51:05.289
Donald Huffines, conservative, Tea Party, Republican, owns a restaurant, owns
1158
00:51:05.389 --> 00:51:08.550
a real estate company. Well, what's he running? I don't know,
1159
00:51:08.590 --> 00:51:11.429
but what's he running for? He's running for whatever in Texas, right?
1160
00:51:11.719 --> 00:51:13.139
He was in the Texas Senate from 2015 to 2019. Wow.
1161
00:51:13.179 --> 00:51:13.260
Wow.
1162
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:18.429
It's funny because when you come up with these names
1163
00:51:18.449 --> 00:51:20.619
in the scripts, there's such a vetting process with the
1164
00:51:20.659 --> 00:51:23.130
business affairs people that it's like– that's why I think
1165
00:51:23.170 --> 00:51:26.909
so many names are so bizarre. They have to make–
1166
00:51:27.289 --> 00:51:29.869
you have to make names that aren't real because if
1167
00:51:29.889 --> 00:51:33.309
there's a possibility that there is an actual Huffheims out
1168
00:51:33.369 --> 00:51:36.750
there with the same first name, they're worried they're going
1169
00:51:36.769 --> 00:51:37.329
to get sued.
1170
00:51:37.730 --> 00:51:38.070
Yeah.
1171
00:51:38.130 --> 00:51:42.210
So what they do is if you make your character
1172
00:51:42.230 --> 00:51:44.190
a name, they go see if there are other people
1173
00:51:44.230 --> 00:51:47.230
that have that name. So you won't get sued.
1174
00:51:47.329 --> 00:51:47.610
Right.
1175
00:51:47.750 --> 00:51:49.389
Which is an insane process.
1176
00:51:49.530 --> 00:51:49.769
Yeah.
1177
00:51:50.309 --> 00:51:50.809
And then.
1178
00:51:50.829 --> 00:51:54.670
It's also the 555 thing, which just drives me crazy.
1179
00:51:54.710 --> 00:51:55.230
It drives me nuts.
1180
00:51:55.289 --> 00:51:55.769
Right out of the movie.
1181
00:51:55.789 --> 00:51:56.429
Right out of the film.
1182
00:51:56.469 --> 00:51:59.780
But sometimes I've noticed lately I'm not seeing it as much.
1183
00:52:00.099 --> 00:52:01.260
But I don't know how they're getting around it.
1184
00:52:01.260 --> 00:52:07.539
The part that drives me nuts is... Oh, it's awful.
1185
00:52:07.699 --> 00:52:08.070
I did a.
1186
00:52:08.059 --> 00:52:08.119
So.
1187
00:52:10.219 --> 00:52:12.820
First off, you can fix it. First off, a lot
1188
00:52:12.840 --> 00:52:14.670
of it is unnecessary. The person's in the.
1189
00:52:16.489 --> 00:52:19.840
Phone booth in the movie, and they're like, all right,
1190
00:52:20.260 --> 00:52:22.559
you need to call me back. And then they go,
1191
00:52:22.599 --> 00:52:25.260
you can reach me at 555, and then they cut.
1192
00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:27.280
It's like, just say you need to call me back
1193
00:52:27.340 --> 00:52:30.500
and hang up the phone. I'll go along with you
1194
00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:32.659
on this. When you yell 555.
1195
00:52:32.639 --> 00:52:33.440
It takes you right out.
1196
00:52:33.659 --> 00:52:35.400
Or when the guy goes, he's.
1197
00:52:35.260 --> 00:52:37.139
Picking up the chick, and then she goes, well, here's
1198
00:52:37.199 --> 00:52:39.840
my number. They do tight on her writing it down.
1199
00:52:39.920 --> 00:52:41.699
How about just hand him a piece of paper?
1200
00:52:42.280 --> 00:52:42.920
There's a number.
1201
00:52:43.579 --> 00:52:44.019
You did the 555.
1202
00:52:44.000 --> 00:52:46.159
Why do I need to see the number?
1203
00:52:47.039 --> 00:52:51.809
I did a pilot where my guy was a driving
1204
00:52:51.869 --> 00:52:55.909
instructor at his own driving academy or whatever. And we
1205
00:52:55.949 --> 00:52:58.570
needed one of those magnetic signs on the thing that
1206
00:52:58.610 --> 00:53:01.110
said Z-Best Driving Academy or whatever.
1207
00:53:01.309 --> 00:53:01.929
Right.
1208
00:53:02.289 --> 00:53:05.019
And they were going, all right, 555. And I go, no,
1209
00:53:05.199 --> 00:53:07.360
I don't want the 555. So how did you get
1210
00:53:07.400 --> 00:53:11.179
around it? I took a regular phone number. I said,
1211
00:53:11.199 --> 00:53:14.570
just take a regular phone number, 818-763, like a valley
1212
00:53:14.710 --> 00:53:18.110
phone number. And then the last number, there'll be a
1213
00:53:18.210 --> 00:53:20.949
dent in the side of the car. It'll be like
1214
00:53:21.010 --> 00:53:24.949
taken out. So we'll just have this. My guy's a loser.
1215
00:53:25.010 --> 00:53:27.190
And it'll vandalize his own crappy car.
1216
00:53:27.199 --> 00:53:29.059
I just don't understand why it's a big deal anyway.
1217
00:53:29.139 --> 00:53:34.320
So what? How many people are going to call the number? Really?
1218
00:53:34.539 --> 00:53:37.130
It just seems maybe now with I don't know.
1219
00:53:37.150 --> 00:53:40.780
We should ask Tommy Two-Tone how that works.
1220
00:53:41.460 --> 00:53:42.090
He made that up.
1221
00:53:42.619 --> 00:53:43.599
He made up that number.
1222
00:53:43.619 --> 00:53:45.920
Yeah, the name Jenny, the numbers, they just came to
1223
00:53:45.940 --> 00:53:47.760
his head. He was just trying to write it.
1224
00:53:47.880 --> 00:53:48.659
It sounds good.
1225
00:53:48.699 --> 00:53:50.380
But isn't it somebody's number?
1226
00:53:51.199 --> 00:53:56.440
If you enter that number in any grocery store. You
1227
00:53:56.460 --> 00:53:58.760
will get the grocery store discount because someone has always
1228
00:53:58.820 --> 00:54:00.380
registered it with any area code.
1229
00:54:00.699 --> 00:54:04.039
Oh, really? I learned something new here. That's great. But yeah, no.
1230
00:54:04.460 --> 00:54:06.500
That could probably apply to a lot of things where
1231
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:08.840
you have to put your phone number first. I never
1232
00:54:08.920 --> 00:54:09.460
thought about that.
1233
00:54:09.480 --> 00:54:10.000
I didn't either.
1234
00:54:10.039 --> 00:54:11.340
That's useful information.
1235
00:54:12.079 --> 00:54:14.679
I'm heading to the Ralphs right after we get off
1236
00:54:14.800 --> 00:54:15.099
the air.
1237
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:15.929
All right.
1238
00:54:16.090 --> 00:54:18.309
You got to unplug maybe the computer or something?
1239
00:54:19.289 --> 00:54:19.510
Yeah.
1240
00:54:19.650 --> 00:54:22.469
Anyway, Huff Hines is an actual name.
1241
00:54:23.030 --> 00:54:23.809
Huff Hines.
1242
00:54:23.989 --> 00:54:25.230
And he ran.
1243
00:54:26.030 --> 00:54:30.349
It's also a weird life where you're sitting around contemplating
1244
00:54:30.409 --> 00:54:33.550
this name for some reason, and then four days later
1245
00:54:33.590 --> 00:54:35.750
you're driving through Texas and you look up at a
1246
00:54:35.769 --> 00:54:36.210
giant billboard.
1247
00:54:36.230 --> 00:54:37.969
That's what I mean. That's why you're kind of hooked
1248
00:54:38.010 --> 00:54:40.800
into the universe right now, I think. I am.
1249
00:54:41.380 --> 00:54:43.679
But it's only good for Coen Brothers movies.
1250
00:54:43.699 --> 00:54:44.719
There's got to be some other. You have to apply
1251
00:54:44.739 --> 00:54:45.940
it to something else. I got to take it to
1252
00:54:45.960 --> 00:54:46.300
the track.
1253
00:54:46.340 --> 00:54:46.860
You're right.
1254
00:54:47.300 --> 00:54:47.739
You're right.
1255
00:54:48.800 --> 00:54:49.219
Music.
1256
00:54:49.619 --> 00:54:49.800
Yeah.
1257
00:54:50.090 --> 00:54:50.989
You love music.
1258
00:54:51.050 --> 00:54:52.550
Love it.
1259
00:54:53.050 --> 00:54:55.170
Who are some of the people you love in music?
1260
00:54:56.000 --> 00:54:56.360
Oh, man.
1261
00:54:56.400 --> 00:54:58.280
You know, it's all over the map. It's from the
1262
00:54:58.320 --> 00:55:02.329
classic rock guys to before, to the jazz guys, to Miles,
1263
00:55:02.389 --> 00:55:06.690
that whole thing, to before, to Tommy Dorsey, to up now, to,
1264
00:55:07.969 --> 00:55:10.389
you know, I'm listening to Bruno Mars put out something
1265
00:55:10.429 --> 00:55:14.670
new that I was just listening to. And I mean,
1266
00:55:14.690 --> 00:55:18.719
I like everything. I'm all over the map. What music
1267
00:55:18.889 --> 00:55:23.670
do you play? What I play is what we call it,
1268
00:55:23.679 --> 00:55:25.219
you know, I've written a lot of music. I had
1269
00:55:25.239 --> 00:55:28.039
a band for a while and we call it soulful rock,
1270
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:31.219
funky pop. So it was, you know, it was melodic.
1271
00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:35.159
It was familiar melody. You know, it was comfortable melodies
1272
00:55:35.360 --> 00:55:40.579
with lyrics that meant something. And I love, I just,
1273
00:55:40.699 --> 00:55:45.159
it's the most immediate, you know, I wouldn't go as
1274
00:55:45.340 --> 00:55:46.949
far as to say what Paul said is the only
1275
00:55:46.969 --> 00:55:49.690
thing I do that's graceful. But like, there's something that,
1276
00:55:50.090 --> 00:55:55.289
when I'm in that pocket, as they say, it's irrefutable.
1277
00:55:56.210 --> 00:55:59.760
You can't deny, when a note is on pitch and
1278
00:56:00.199 --> 00:56:03.070
it hits you, it just hits you in a way
1279
00:56:03.110 --> 00:56:07.539
that words don't work. And so it connects me to
1280
00:56:07.579 --> 00:56:12.559
something bigger than myself and there's real joy there.
1281
00:56:12.820 --> 00:56:15.380
Well, I think.
1282
00:56:16.579 --> 00:56:20.760
What we're looking for And it's why people do drugs
1283
00:56:20.860 --> 00:56:25.360
and get addicted to sex. We're looking for sort of
1284
00:56:25.400 --> 00:56:28.119
a freedom. I don't want to sound corny.
1285
00:56:28.989 --> 00:56:32.130
No, it's a transcendence. And I think what we're talking
1286
00:56:32.210 --> 00:56:35.269
about in awe, and I think this is what Newman
1287
00:56:35.289 --> 00:56:37.530
was getting at, this is certainly what I'm getting at,
1288
00:56:37.650 --> 00:56:43.300
is this sense of awe, of this awe of existence,
1289
00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:46.219
which aside from all the shit that we have to
1290
00:56:46.300 --> 00:56:50.510
wade through on this planet, The amazing thing about being alive,
1291
00:56:50.650 --> 00:56:53.820
you know, and sitting here with you and laughing, it's like,
1292
00:56:54.199 --> 00:56:55.219
it's amazing.
1293
00:56:55.940 --> 00:57:00.980
I think we have a yearning to sort of escape
1294
00:57:01.579 --> 00:57:05.670
what is always with us. It's a kind of a gravity,
1295
00:57:05.789 --> 00:57:07.369
like big picture death.
1296
00:57:07.389 --> 00:57:07.730
For sure.
1297
00:57:07.750 --> 00:57:09.489
You know, it's just we're all going to die. Everyone
1298
00:57:09.510 --> 00:57:09.849
knows it.
1299
00:57:09.949 --> 00:57:10.190
Okay.
1300
00:57:10.210 --> 00:57:14.829
Then secondly, you get into. unpaid bills or there's this guy,
1301
00:57:14.869 --> 00:57:17.239
there's an issue or I have to, you know, the
1302
00:57:17.360 --> 00:57:21.139
unfinished business tend to whatever, whatever the fuck we're talking about.
1303
00:57:21.179 --> 00:57:21.380
Right.
1304
00:57:21.880 --> 00:57:27.159
But we all want this sort of freedom and you
1305
00:57:27.179 --> 00:57:29.789
have to kind of simulate it now in a sense
1306
00:57:29.829 --> 00:57:32.530
that when you're on stage and you're playing and you're
1307
00:57:32.550 --> 00:57:34.550
in that pocket and in that groove and in that
1308
00:57:34.630 --> 00:57:38.179
zone and everything is flowing and That's just where you are.
1309
00:57:38.380 --> 00:57:41.900
You're present. When you're behind the wheel of a race car,
1310
00:57:42.039 --> 00:57:45.659
you think of nothing. Skiing for me, mountain biking for me.
1311
00:57:46.059 --> 00:57:47.679
Stuff coming at you fast.
1312
00:57:47.760 --> 00:57:48.409
Right.
1313
00:57:48.610 --> 00:57:49.389
And some danger.
1314
00:57:49.469 --> 00:57:50.730
It forces you to be present.
1315
00:57:50.730 --> 00:57:52.349
100%.
1316
00:57:52.349 --> 00:57:57.530
And it's the only time in a world where you
1317
00:57:57.570 --> 00:58:02.480
could be watching the Paul McCartney documentary But also kind
1318
00:58:02.519 --> 00:58:05.480
of glancing at your phone or writing, thinking about shit
1319
00:58:05.500 --> 00:58:08.599
you got to do tomorrow. You could be having a conversation,
1320
00:58:08.639 --> 00:58:11.059
but also a little party is a little over here
1321
00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:14.929
somewhere else, thinking about a little something else. Going down
1322
00:58:14.969 --> 00:58:17.369
that ski slope at 40 miles an hour, there's nothing
1323
00:58:17.590 --> 00:58:18.590
but what's in front of you.
1324
00:58:18.610 --> 00:58:21.110
But what's the ultimate one? What's the top of the
1325
00:58:21.150 --> 00:58:21.989
cake of all of these?
1326
00:58:22.329 --> 00:58:22.469
Hmm.
1327
00:58:22.960 --> 00:58:25.920
Sex. Or not just sex, but orgasm.
1328
00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:31.139
Yes, it's orgasm because sometimes you'll wander a little sexually,
1329
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:31.820
the brain.
1330
00:58:31.860 --> 00:58:33.800
But that's why people want sex.
1331
00:58:33.820 --> 00:58:35.559
Right, but you don't tend to be thinking about your
1332
00:58:35.579 --> 00:58:39.539
accounting bill when you're orgasming. No, not so much. I
1333
00:58:39.559 --> 00:58:40.199
don't think so.
1334
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:42.739
Unless you really love deductions.
1335
00:58:44.320 --> 00:58:48.420
But no, it's true. So I have hypervigilance. I'm always
1336
00:58:48.440 --> 00:58:50.539
sort of thinking about this and thinking about that.
1337
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:53.510
Me too. That's ADHD, is it not? Because I've been
1338
00:58:53.530 --> 00:58:54.530
thinking about it a lot lately.
1339
00:58:54.610 --> 00:58:57.309
I don't know, but I can tell you when I
1340
00:58:57.349 --> 00:58:59.289
get out of the race car, if you ask me
1341
00:58:59.329 --> 00:59:01.329
what I was thinking, the answer would be, I have
1342
00:59:01.369 --> 00:59:01.809
no idea.
1343
00:59:01.829 --> 00:59:02.849
Right. That's why you love it.
1344
00:59:02.849 --> 00:59:06.690
There's no nothing but. So he wanted that. But you
1345
00:59:06.710 --> 00:59:10.030
can do it musically. And I think- It takes, by
1346
00:59:10.050 --> 00:59:11.769
the way, it takes a lot of work for me.
1347
00:59:11.909 --> 00:59:15.699
Because I only started writing music, you know, 15 years ago.
1348
00:59:16.070 --> 00:59:18.940
Right. And so this became, I'd strummed for most of
1349
00:59:18.960 --> 00:59:23.119
my life. But it became, it's a fascinating thing. It happened.
1350
00:59:23.139 --> 00:59:24.840
It just, I never thought I'd write a song. And
1351
00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:27.199
then I wrote this song. And all of a sudden
1352
00:59:27.239 --> 00:59:28.789
it was like, oh. This is what I want. You know,
1353
00:59:28.809 --> 00:59:31.000
it was like Newman. That's why I kind of, when
1354
00:59:31.039 --> 00:59:33.199
he said at 48, he became a race car driver.
1355
00:59:33.219 --> 00:59:36.139
At 50 or 48, I became a songwriter and a musician.
1356
00:59:36.639 --> 00:59:41.300
And I'm super dedicated to it now. But it was
1357
00:59:41.360 --> 00:59:41.940
late in life.
1358
00:59:42.860 --> 00:59:44.219
Yeah, well, that's a kind of a gift. It was
1359
00:59:44.239 --> 00:59:45.199
a huge gift.
1360
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:49.190
You know, that it didn't seem to exist in the past.
1361
00:59:49.210 --> 00:59:50.250
You know where that gift came from?
1362
00:59:50.570 --> 00:59:51.889
Conan. Hmm.
1363
00:59:52.210 --> 00:59:55.449
Right? So I'm on the Warner's lot. Yeah. We're doing
1364
00:59:55.510 --> 00:59:59.880
a show called The Whole Truth. It's... seven, no, 10 episodes,
1365
00:59:59.880 --> 01:00:03.199
12 episodes on ABC. It's a disaster. It's not doing well.
1366
01:00:03.300 --> 01:00:06.739
Jerry Bruckheimer thing. It's a law show. And Conan just
1367
01:00:06.780 --> 01:00:13.190
came to the lot at Warner's for his TBS show, right?
1368
01:00:13.469 --> 01:00:17.349
And they said anyone on the lot could, they would
1369
01:00:17.389 --> 01:00:19.489
set up a camera in his waiting room and you could,
1370
01:00:20.369 --> 01:00:22.190
any shows could come and get 10 minutes and they'll
1371
01:00:22.210 --> 01:00:24.530
put it on their site. And the PR people from
1372
01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:27.480
ABC came and said, you got to do something. And
1373
01:00:27.500 --> 01:00:29.769
I said, well, what should I do? They said, well, you,
1374
01:00:29.849 --> 01:00:31.349
they sell them with a guitar all the time. They say,
1375
01:00:31.389 --> 01:00:34.510
so sing a song. I was like, okay. You know,
1376
01:00:34.530 --> 01:00:36.289
and they were like, you have to do it in
1377
01:00:36.369 --> 01:00:39.389
two hours. And so I took like a blues progression.
1378
01:00:39.710 --> 01:00:41.969
I took, I could write words. So I wrote lyrics
1379
01:00:42.010 --> 01:00:43.650
and I had my assistant with the cue cards and
1380
01:00:43.670 --> 01:00:44.969
I went in there and I sang it and it's not,
1381
01:00:44.989 --> 01:00:47.170
you can get it on YouTube and, uh, it's not
1382
01:00:47.190 --> 01:00:49.989
good or anything, but it, it was like, oh shit,
1383
01:00:50.170 --> 01:00:51.909
I wrote a song and it performed it and it
1384
01:00:51.949 --> 01:00:55.760
wasn't terrible. And, uh, so I thank Conan for that. But, um,
1385
01:00:56.820 --> 01:00:59.820
It changed my life. It was a gift, that moment.
1386
01:01:01.039 --> 01:01:04.900
You know, it's so interesting because when I was young,
1387
01:01:05.219 --> 01:01:09.059
old people were old and they acted old and they
1388
01:01:09.079 --> 01:01:12.039
didn't do anything any different than they did 20 years
1389
01:01:12.099 --> 01:01:13.840
before that. They're just older.
1390
01:01:13.860 --> 01:01:14.260
Yeah.
1391
01:01:14.599 --> 01:01:17.059
And that was it. They're just kind of locked off,
1392
01:01:17.179 --> 01:01:21.199
you know. And now you start thinking about possibilities and
1393
01:01:21.300 --> 01:01:23.119
what's the next chapter hold and.
1394
01:01:23.099 --> 01:01:24.099
What I want to do.
1395
01:01:24.280 --> 01:01:28.619
And it's like kind of nuts because like, listen. you're old,
1396
01:01:29.059 --> 01:01:32.690
I'm old, and historically, it was time to just sort
1397
01:01:32.750 --> 01:01:34.769
of put your feet up and put a cardigan sweater
1398
01:01:34.909 --> 01:01:38.010
on and light a pipe and figure out the team
1399
01:01:38.030 --> 01:01:40.269
you rooted for and just sit and keep box scores.
1400
01:01:40.309 --> 01:01:43.190
Because you hear, I mean, every time someone tells me
1401
01:01:43.230 --> 01:01:46.380
about their parent who's 92 or 93, it's like, you
1402
01:01:46.420 --> 01:01:48.079
never heard that when I was a kid. Nobody was
1403
01:01:48.079 --> 01:01:49.260
92 or 93. Everyone's 92 or 93. And the idea
1404
01:01:49.420 --> 01:01:50.519
of being 100 is not unusual. 103 is not unusual.
1405
01:01:57.380 --> 01:02:00.050
That was like science fiction when we were young. So
1406
01:02:00.179 --> 01:02:05.510
you do have this potential. And I really advocate people to,
1407
01:02:05.610 --> 01:02:09.210
irregardless of whether it becomes a career or an avocation
1408
01:02:09.250 --> 01:02:11.969
or anything, find things you love at any point in
1409
01:02:12.030 --> 01:02:14.989
life and embrace them because the joy I get from
1410
01:02:15.050 --> 01:02:17.349
music is irreplaceable.
1411
01:02:18.090 --> 01:02:18.389
Yeah.
1412
01:02:18.750 --> 01:02:22.639
Well, it's... And by the way, regardless of whether you
1413
01:02:22.659 --> 01:02:25.530
make it in your 90s or not, go ahead and
1414
01:02:25.570 --> 01:02:25.900
do it.
1415
01:02:26.090 --> 01:02:26.590
Absolutely.
1416
01:02:26.630 --> 01:02:29.949
Because you and I, you know, I could get hit
1417
01:02:29.989 --> 01:02:32.010
by a truck leaving this place.
1418
01:02:32.050 --> 01:02:32.489
In an hour.
1419
01:02:32.510 --> 01:02:34.849
But what I'm saying is, you know, in theory, I
1420
01:02:34.869 --> 01:02:36.650
could be playing if I live that long. You're right.
1421
01:02:36.690 --> 01:02:38.699
I mean, who knows? But if I did, I could
1422
01:02:38.719 --> 01:02:41.300
have music as a part of my life. You know,
1423
01:02:41.320 --> 01:02:43.360
that could be the third of my life was about music.
1424
01:02:43.840 --> 01:02:45.219
Yeah.
1425
01:02:46.000 --> 01:02:49.179
Well, this is an interesting conversation. You're in town, right?
1426
01:02:49.590 --> 01:02:51.489
I mean, you should come back, you know.
1427
01:02:52.030 --> 01:02:52.469
I'd love to.
1428
01:02:52.690 --> 01:02:54.250
Do it a little more consistently.
1429
01:02:54.309 --> 01:02:54.929
Cool, thanks.
1430
01:02:54.949 --> 01:02:56.869
I could show you some more doc trailers.
1431
01:02:57.130 --> 01:02:59.230
Yeah, good. I want to see your doc.
1432
01:03:00.010 --> 01:03:03.610
I think as a guy who's worked with a lot
1433
01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:06.059
of the people that are in it and a fan
1434
01:03:06.119 --> 01:03:08.460
of Newman and Redford, for sure.
1435
01:03:08.480 --> 01:03:12.019
I remember my favorite Newman story was, you know, the
1436
01:03:12.099 --> 01:03:15.920
Westport Playhouse, which was near his house, which I did
1437
01:03:15.940 --> 01:03:19.340
a play up there. Um, and they, they helped finance it,
1438
01:03:19.380 --> 01:03:21.539
I think. And, uh, my friend was in a play
1439
01:03:21.579 --> 01:03:25.940
there that Joanne Woodward directed and, uh, Newman came, you know,
1440
01:03:25.960 --> 01:03:27.840
everyone was waiting. When's Paul going to come? And they
1441
01:03:27.880 --> 01:03:29.659
had the opening night and Paul shows up and he's
1442
01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:31.929
got a bud in his hand and he's wearing an
1443
01:03:32.070 --> 01:03:35.510
orange windbreaker and, you know, probably came from the track. And, and, uh,
1444
01:03:36.230 --> 01:03:39.309
and my friend said, uh, went up to him and said, hi, Mr. Woodward.
1445
01:03:39.349 --> 01:03:39.909
Nice to meet you.
1446
01:03:40.690 --> 01:03:41.590
Ha ha ha.
1447
01:03:42.460 --> 01:03:44.880
Joanne Woodward's still alive, by the way.
1448
01:03:45.119 --> 01:03:47.920
Yeah, but kind of gone, right?
1449
01:03:48.320 --> 01:03:49.019
Alzheimer's.
1450
01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:49.260
Yeah.
1451
01:03:49.940 --> 01:03:55.050
But, like, literally contracted it 15 years ago.
1452
01:03:55.070 --> 01:03:55.349
Right.
1453
01:03:55.489 --> 01:03:57.389
And is still alive.
1454
01:03:57.469 --> 01:03:58.590
Like, kind of crazy.
1455
01:03:58.710 --> 01:04:01.670
I can't imagine. I talked to his kids. Yeah.
1456
01:04:01.949 --> 01:04:02.710
And his daughters.
1457
01:04:02.829 --> 01:04:06.760
And they're over there every day, like, live next door.
1458
01:04:06.780 --> 01:04:08.420
Right. And it's just kind of.
1459
01:04:08.960 --> 01:04:09.480
Crazy.
1460
01:04:09.500 --> 01:04:11.400
I can't even, I can't even get my head around
1461
01:04:11.420 --> 01:04:13.739
what that's like, you know, to her, like, what is,
1462
01:04:13.860 --> 01:04:17.530
what is that existence with not, I mean, maybe it's,
1463
01:04:17.719 --> 01:04:19.730
maybe it's bliss. Maybe it's what we're talking about. Maybe
1464
01:04:19.750 --> 01:04:22.829
it's just pure bliss because you have no, you know, anxiety.
1465
01:04:22.849 --> 01:04:24.590
You probably don't have, well, you have anxiety, I think,
1466
01:04:24.650 --> 01:04:25.030
but you don't.
1467
01:04:25.190 --> 01:04:26.570
I don't know.
1468
01:04:26.670 --> 01:04:30.150
Maybe that feeling of orgasm or behind the race car
1469
01:04:30.190 --> 01:04:32.590
wheel or up on stage playing a lick.
1470
01:04:32.750 --> 01:04:33.130
I don't know.
1471
01:04:33.190 --> 01:04:37.090
Maybe it's a constant state of that. I look, I'd
1472
01:04:37.150 --> 01:04:40.570
wish that for anyone who felt that way, but it's
1473
01:04:41.590 --> 01:04:44.780
insane that she's still with us.
1474
01:04:45.500 --> 01:04:47.179
Yeah. I didn't even realize that, I guess.
1475
01:04:48.059 --> 01:04:50.559
I mean, you can look it up, Dawson, but I mean,
1476
01:04:50.639 --> 01:04:54.900
is Joanne Woodward, is she, you know, 95?
1477
01:04:54.900 --> 01:04:59.690
I mean, it's crazy. She's so talented too, man. I mean,
1478
01:04:59.710 --> 01:05:03.750
you get that from Ethan's doc, you get, how amazing
1479
01:05:03.829 --> 01:05:04.329
she was.
1480
01:05:04.510 --> 01:05:07.369
You also forget how Paul liked to drive race cars.
1481
01:05:07.769 --> 01:05:09.849
I know, I know.
1482
01:05:09.849 --> 01:05:09.909
96.
1483
01:05:09.889 --> 01:05:12.750
Yeah, she was real substantial. Dude, 96 years old?
1484
01:05:13.150 --> 01:05:13.389
Wow.
1485
01:05:13.429 --> 01:05:16.280
Got Alzheimer's when she was 79.
1486
01:05:16.280 --> 01:05:16.820
That's wild.
1487
01:05:16.860 --> 01:05:17.400
Or whatever.
1488
01:05:18.059 --> 01:05:18.719
That's wild.
1489
01:05:18.820 --> 01:05:22.019
All right, the plug, by the way, The Gray House,
1490
01:05:22.280 --> 01:05:24.360
it's out on Prime as we speak.
1491
01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:24.920
Very good.
1492
01:05:25.000 --> 01:05:26.360
I was watching it last night.
1493
01:05:27.340 --> 01:05:29.300
Where else can people go, Rob, if they want to
1494
01:05:29.610 --> 01:05:30.110
follow you?
1495
01:05:30.630 --> 01:05:32.730
Well, I'm all over social media, so I've got stuff
1496
01:05:32.789 --> 01:05:36.269
up there. And I'm on so many shows that are
1497
01:05:36.369 --> 01:05:39.670
actually on Amazon Prime. Billions is on there. Numbers is
1498
01:05:39.789 --> 01:05:46.420
on there. Northern Exposure is on there. What else I got?
1499
01:05:46.559 --> 01:05:50.639
Well, go to robmorrow.com for anything you want.
1500
01:05:50.780 --> 01:05:52.719
Sure. Good to see you, Rob. Yeah, man. Thanks for
1501
01:05:52.739 --> 01:05:53.019
having me.
1502

01:06:15.590 --> 01:06:17.909

more parts, and it's in stock, either in-store or online.

01:08:10.030 --> 01:08:17.569
It's time to check Adam's voicemail. Hey Adam, Alan.
1535
01:08:18.670 --> 01:08:21.210
Hey, I'm listening to your latest podcast with Bill O'Reilly.
1536
01:08:22.380 --> 01:08:27.800
You use the word eucolic. Are you sure you barely
1537
01:08:27.840 --> 01:08:34.699
graduated high school? Your vocabulary, I don't know. I had
1538
01:08:34.720 --> 01:08:35.470
to look that word up.
1539
01:08:36.819 --> 01:08:39.699
Later. You can leave us a message at 888-634-1744.
1540
01:08:39.699 --> 01:08:41.020
Please don't be so droll.
1541
01:08:41.039 --> 01:08:42.239
Of course I swung a hammer.
1542
01:08:48.210 --> 01:08:49.609
On a construction site.
1543
01:08:50.630 --> 01:08:51.770
How pedantic of him.
1544
01:08:51.850 --> 01:08:52.300
Yes. Yeah.
1545
01:08:52.319 --> 01:09:01.720
Well, listen, I knew I was uneducated. and I knew
1546
01:09:01.739 --> 01:09:06.399
that when I got into comedy that I was at
1547
01:09:06.439 --> 01:09:11.699
a deficit because I was uneducated and I did not
1548
01:09:11.819 --> 01:09:16.909
know what a lot of things meant and wasn't familiar
1549
01:09:16.949 --> 01:09:21.819
with things. And I could remember... being on stage with
1550
01:09:22.659 --> 01:09:25.840
Groundlings people and Acme people, and.
1551
01:09:25.779 --> 01:09:28.060
Those are educated people. They all.
1552
01:09:29.619 --> 01:09:34.289
There were no blue-collar guys at the improv troupe sketch.
1553
01:09:34.569 --> 01:09:37.670
They were all sort of college, smart. They wrote, you know,
1554
01:09:37.710 --> 01:09:42.130
they spelled, they wrote, they read. I don't... Now, looking
1555
01:09:42.170 --> 01:09:44.829
back on it, I can't think of one blue-collary dude.
1556
01:09:45.270 --> 01:09:49.970
And so they would say things... on stage, like, oh,
1557
01:09:50.090 --> 01:09:52.600
I'm working on my topiary, you know, like that. And
1558
01:09:52.680 --> 01:09:55.960
I didn't know what a topiary was. And they, I
1559
01:09:56.420 --> 01:09:59.500
remember doing a scene where there were, I think we
1560
01:09:59.520 --> 01:10:01.359
were at a Briss and I was like, I don't
1561
01:10:01.399 --> 01:10:02.979
know what being, I don't know what that is.
1562
01:10:03.000 --> 01:10:03.880
I love that iced tea.
1563
01:10:04.180 --> 01:10:04.579
Yeah.
1564
01:10:05.239 --> 01:10:12.479
So I didn't, um, and so I realized like pretty quickly,
1565
01:10:12.500 --> 01:10:15.119
if I didn't catch myself up with some of the
1566
01:10:15.630 --> 01:10:19.909
vocabulary and just things in general, I I'm going to
1567
01:10:20.050 --> 01:10:22.859
be left behind out on stage because I'm going to
1568
01:10:22.880 --> 01:10:28.439
get caught not knowing things. So I made an effort
1569
01:10:28.699 --> 01:10:33.460
to try to teach myself things. So they didn't really
1570
01:10:33.520 --> 01:10:38.510
discover who I was, which is basically an uneducated blue-collar guy.
1571
01:10:38.930 --> 01:10:41.770
So I sort of overcompensated.
1572
01:10:41.829 --> 01:10:44.430
Yeah, there's some situations out there. Like I always think
1573
01:10:44.449 --> 01:10:47.170
of Days of Thunder. cold trickle when he's like, I
1574
01:10:47.170 --> 01:10:48.449
don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what
1575
01:10:48.489 --> 01:10:50.539
carburetors do. I don't know what any of this stuff is.
1576
01:10:50.560 --> 01:10:52.899
I don't know brake manifolds or whatever it is. Obviously,
1577
01:10:52.920 --> 01:10:55.739
that's not correct. But at some point, he goes, I
1578
01:10:55.760 --> 01:10:57.380
could just get in the car and I could drive.
1579
01:10:57.960 --> 01:10:59.939
And I like guys like that who don't know the
1580
01:11:00.010 --> 01:11:01.689
inner workings of what they're doing.
1581
01:11:01.729 --> 01:11:03.420
They can just go out there and they can do it.
1582
01:11:04.069 --> 01:11:05.909
Intake manifold exhaust.
1583
01:11:05.970 --> 01:11:06.909
There you go.
1584
01:11:06.930 --> 01:11:08.069
Yes, thank you.
1585
01:11:08.229 --> 01:11:12.729
And still, still to this day, master and slave cylinder.
1586
01:11:13.859 --> 01:11:14.560
The master.
1587
01:11:15.180 --> 01:11:18.880
tells the slave what to do. The master tells the
1588
01:11:18.939 --> 01:11:21.520
slave to engage or disengage the clutch.
1589
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:23.319
All right.
1590
01:11:23.920 --> 01:11:28.680
Speaking of that, I was thinking as we are recently
1591
01:11:28.720 --> 01:11:31.430
going back to the moon and just sort of how
1592
01:11:31.470 --> 01:11:35.430
pedestrian it is now to take off a spaceship.
1593
01:11:35.470 --> 01:11:35.729
Sure.
1594
01:11:36.189 --> 01:11:39.369
And then I started thinking about everything is just kind
1595
01:11:39.430 --> 01:11:43.050
of safe now. And the thrilling part of it is
1596
01:11:43.720 --> 01:11:46.140
You know, it's a spectacle, but it's not thrilling anymore
1597
01:11:46.180 --> 01:11:49.859
because the danger part of it has been removed ostensibly.
1598
01:11:50.720 --> 01:11:55.500
And then I thought going to the moon, which we
1599
01:11:55.579 --> 01:11:58.479
first went to or we first started launching, I don't know,
1600
01:11:58.510 --> 01:11:59.869
in Apollo, I don't.
1601
01:11:59.750 --> 01:12:00.770
Know, 67, 68, 69.
1602
01:12:00.770 --> 01:12:05.789
Maybe we go to the moon in 69. Anyway, I
1603
01:12:05.829 --> 01:12:09.810
was thinking like in terms of the danger and where
1604
01:12:09.850 --> 01:12:16.920
it is when we started, like in 69, let's say, 68, 69,
1605
01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:21.649
and then where it is now, which is pretty pedestrian, and,
1606
01:12:21.850 --> 01:12:26.029
you know, it's always dangerous, but it's much safer. The
1607
01:12:26.329 --> 01:12:33.189
course that that followed is the trajectory is exactly the
1608
01:12:33.229 --> 01:12:36.020
same as F1. F1 was hairy in 68, 69, lots
1609
01:12:36.029 --> 01:12:43.789
of deaths, fires. Safety wasn't really a priority. Going fast
1610
01:12:43.829 --> 01:12:48.029
was a priority. And it was a super scary, dicey,
1611
01:12:48.289 --> 01:12:54.350
dangerous sport in 69. And now it's safe, completely safe.
1612
01:12:54.489 --> 01:12:57.670
There's accidents. There's bad accidents. But it's totally safe. These
1613
01:12:57.729 --> 01:12:59.850
guys roll over and they come over the barriers and
1614
01:12:59.869 --> 01:13:01.069
they climb out of the car.
1615
01:13:01.270 --> 01:13:02.899
There are no fires. You know what I mean?
1616
01:13:03.260 --> 01:13:06.560
And it's the same thing. It's still, it's thrilling, but
1617
01:13:06.600 --> 01:13:10.390
it is missing that you could die element, which really
1618
01:13:10.470 --> 01:13:11.989
takes it to the next level.
1619
01:13:12.050 --> 01:13:12.869
Yeah. Yeah.
1620
01:13:12.909 --> 01:13:14.970
And a lot of technology and science, we've kind of
1621
01:13:15.050 --> 01:13:17.609
already hit the ceiling on a lot of things. Like
1622
01:13:17.729 --> 01:13:21.140
I know it's apples and oranges, but camera lenses, camera
1623
01:13:21.180 --> 01:13:23.640
bodies will continue to change and they'll continue to move.
1624
01:13:23.659 --> 01:13:27.460
But we kind of hit the threshold of camera lens technology.
1625
01:13:27.720 --> 01:13:29.520
You could buy a camera lens today and sell it
1626
01:13:29.539 --> 01:13:32.840
for the same exact amount, five years from now because
1627
01:13:32.859 --> 01:13:36.199
the technology doesn't move camera lenses will always be the
1628
01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:38.350
same but the bodies on the other hand those will
1629
01:13:38.369 --> 01:13:40.630
depreciate over time and it's kind of the same with
1630
01:13:40.649 --> 01:13:44.090
what you're saying with like racing and and space travel.
1631
01:13:44.369 --> 01:13:46.649
Yeah that's the gay version of what i sure.
1632
01:13:46.409 --> 01:13:48.649
Absolutely yeah absolutely but i don't i don't know shit
1633
01:13:48.670 --> 01:13:50.409
about space travel or cars so i gotta.
1634
01:13:50.649 --> 01:13:53.270
Relate to your brake manifold um.
1635
01:13:55.090 --> 01:13:56.050
So I don't know.
1636
01:13:56.229 --> 01:13:57.130
I'm amazed.
1637
01:13:57.289 --> 01:13:59.069
I don't know. I'm kind of amazed. Whatever.
1638
01:13:59.550 --> 01:14:02.390
You know, I hate Gavin Newsom, but I think I
1639
01:14:02.430 --> 01:14:07.409
hate his wife more. And she makes all her fucking
1640
01:14:07.529 --> 01:14:12.270
shitty films, the he-she confused about sexuality films, and then
1641
01:14:12.310 --> 01:14:14.380
they all waltz into Sundance.
1642
01:14:14.439 --> 01:14:16.600
And then I make all my films and nothing gets
1643
01:14:16.659 --> 01:14:17.279
into Sundance.
1644
01:14:17.720 --> 01:14:22.060
That's how it's played. But she's a ditz. And also
1645
01:14:22.180 --> 01:14:27.479
I'm kind of, I, it's interesting. Maybe I'm just seeing
1646
01:14:27.520 --> 01:14:33.029
it through my lens, but you can definitely, you Rudy, you, me,
1647
01:14:33.550 --> 01:14:37.689
you will know exactly what I'm talking about. I see
1648
01:14:37.890 --> 01:14:42.479
all these couples out there and like families out there.
1649
01:14:42.500 --> 01:14:45.800
And it's like Gavin Newsom's up there and he's like,
1650
01:14:45.840 --> 01:14:48.720
you know, We're not going to have true freedom until
1651
01:14:48.739 --> 01:14:52.189
the trans community is recognized and they get their own month.
1652
01:14:52.250 --> 01:14:54.989
And she's standing next to him going, not only that,
1653
01:14:55.069 --> 01:14:56.729
I wish it was a year. I wish we had
1654
01:14:56.770 --> 01:14:58.310
a year's recognition of trans people.
1655
01:14:58.329 --> 01:14:59.060
All right.
1656
01:14:59.399 --> 01:15:03.079
That's what they do. And then I'm sure everyone's on board.
1657
01:15:04.460 --> 01:15:04.880
Myself?
1658
01:15:06.489 --> 01:15:09.750
My mom, my dad, my grandma, any woman I've ever
1659
01:15:09.789 --> 01:15:10.989
been with has always been like.
1660
01:15:11.050 --> 01:15:11.710
Fuck that guy.
1661
01:15:11.729 --> 01:15:12.569
He don't speak for me.
1662
01:15:12.590 --> 01:15:16.979
That guy, I don't... Whatever he says, that ain't what
1663
01:15:17.060 --> 01:15:19.359
I'm thinking. I'll tell you that. I don't care if
1664
01:15:19.380 --> 01:15:21.619
it's COVID. I don't care if it's trans rights. I
1665
01:15:21.640 --> 01:15:24.989
don't care if it's the fucking border. Whatever that guy's saying...
1666
01:15:25.449 --> 01:15:26.970
Not that that's him.
1667
01:15:27.210 --> 01:15:27.750
Yeah.
1668
01:15:27.810 --> 01:15:30.649
Just because we're married or just because he's my son
1669
01:15:30.710 --> 01:15:32.229
or just because whatever.
1670
01:15:32.510 --> 01:15:33.970
Just because he's Sergeant Slaughter.
1671
01:15:33.989 --> 01:15:38.210
Do not think for fucking five minutes I share any
1672
01:15:38.229 --> 01:15:39.550
of that bullshit with that guy.
1673
01:15:39.590 --> 01:15:39.789
Yeah.
1674
01:15:39.810 --> 01:15:40.310
All right.
1675
01:15:40.609 --> 01:15:42.909
Where they get all these fucking people that are just
1676
01:15:43.170 --> 01:15:46.869
first off, they're both dopes, but they're lockstep and they're dopiness.
1677
01:15:46.989 --> 01:15:49.069
Yeah. Is it all an act?
1678
01:15:50.140 --> 01:15:52.380
It's got to be because I remember taking road trips
1679
01:15:52.439 --> 01:15:55.479
three hours from St. Cloud, Minnesota, back to Hibbing, Minnesota,
1680
01:15:55.560 --> 01:15:57.720
and all I did was watch my parents argue about everything.
1681
01:15:58.460 --> 01:15:59.439
It didn't matter what it was.
1682
01:16:00.739 --> 01:16:02.720
It wasn't like they got out of the car and went, hey,
1683
01:16:03.300 --> 01:16:04.020
remember Chris?
1684
01:16:04.340 --> 01:16:05.899
We're simpatico on this thing.
1685
01:16:05.920 --> 01:16:06.140
No, no, no.
1686
01:16:06.140 --> 01:16:08.260
All they did was argue. We went in the house.
1687
01:16:08.300 --> 01:16:08.819
They argued.
1688
01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:12.899
Everybody was completely 180 from everything, and it showed in
1689
01:16:12.960 --> 01:16:14.859
our relationships and the way that we handle each other
1690
01:16:14.960 --> 01:16:16.550
as you get older. And I don't know what it is.
1691
01:16:16.779 --> 01:16:18.579
I don't agree with anything that my girlfriend says. I
1692
01:16:18.600 --> 01:16:19.659
don't know why you'd want to.
1693
01:16:20.020 --> 01:16:24.850
Yeah, well, you certainly wouldn't get the ringing endorsement that Jennifer,
1694
01:16:24.890 --> 01:16:28.649
we'll watch the clip of her, but it's also, I
1695
01:16:31.270 --> 01:16:37.050
really wonder, she's at Wisdom 2.0, the conference giving, talking.
1696
01:16:37.210 --> 01:16:40.069
By the way, you know the sad part about these things?
1697
01:16:40.729 --> 01:16:43.260
Crowds gather to hear what she has to say.
1698
01:16:43.319 --> 01:16:45.180
All right, let's hear what she has to say.
1699
01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:50.210
My son's, are really into sports are some of my girls,
1700
01:16:50.670 --> 01:16:55.300
but my sons will watch their favorite athletes on YouTube or,
1701
01:16:56.039 --> 01:16:59.239
and then all of a sudden you'll, you'll find this
1702
01:16:59.300 --> 01:17:05.600
sort of alt-right extreme, you know, Jordan Peterson type speaking
1703
01:17:05.640 --> 01:17:06.350
to my sons.
1704
01:17:06.359 --> 01:17:06.520
Right.
1705
01:17:06.979 --> 01:17:10.050
It's insane. Connected to the sports culture.
1706
01:17:10.390 --> 01:17:11.369
That's not healthy.
1707
01:17:11.489 --> 01:17:12.069
Are you kidding?
1708
01:17:12.310 --> 01:17:17.449
So then our boys are learning hate, bigotry, misogyny, racism.
1709
01:17:17.829 --> 01:17:19.770
So it's very dangerous.
1710
01:17:19.829 --> 01:17:21.390
And I think we have to take responsibility.
1711
01:17:22.430 --> 01:17:25.289
Jordan Peterson type, like a Canadian professor.
1712
01:17:25.689 --> 01:17:28.829
Who does nothing but just spew out, I don't know,
1713
01:17:29.090 --> 01:17:30.109
correct data.
1714
01:17:30.289 --> 01:17:31.399
Well, correct information.
1715
01:17:31.409 --> 01:17:33.880
He talks about the Bible and history and stuff like that.
1716
01:17:33.899 --> 01:17:37.539
That's what you're worried about your son finding out. about
1717
01:17:38.079 --> 01:17:45.239
David and Josiah. And here's what I realized, but it
1718
01:17:45.270 --> 01:17:49.489
drives me nuts, but it's that thing. It's all back
1719
01:17:49.529 --> 01:17:51.989
to that Rob Reiner clip I always play for you
1720
01:17:52.010 --> 01:17:54.470
guys on Bill Maher. It's like, well, come on, Rob,
1721
01:17:54.489 --> 01:17:56.569
you don't know that Hunter Biden's laptop?
1722
01:17:56.649 --> 01:17:58.409
I don't know. Do you know? I don't know. You
1723
01:17:58.430 --> 01:17:58.710
don't know.
1724
01:17:59.310 --> 01:18:02.199
But, Rob, you got to go out and get information.
1725
01:18:02.239 --> 01:18:05.479
And I get information other places. You didn't know this?
1726
01:18:05.640 --> 01:18:06.380
I watch Biden.
1727
01:18:07.489 --> 01:18:10.000
You have no idea who Jordan Peterson is, bitch. You
1728
01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:17.039
have no fucking idea. First off, he's intellectually... Intellectually, he
1729
01:18:17.100 --> 01:18:17.720
would be a.
1730
01:18:19.579 --> 01:18:20.100
Zeppelin.
1731
01:18:20.460 --> 01:18:23.090
He would be the Hindenburg, and you would be a
1732
01:18:23.100 --> 01:18:26.890
little Mylar balloon that says, Get Well, Nana, on it
1733
01:18:26.930 --> 01:18:30.850
that's stuck in power wires. That's who you are intellectually.
1734
01:18:31.489 --> 01:18:36.270
He is so much greater than you intellectually. But also...
1735
01:18:36.529 --> 01:18:41.500
Just basically saying hate merchant, misogynist. You have no fucking
1736
01:18:41.640 --> 01:18:44.479
idea who this guy is. And it's also weird that
1737
01:18:44.520 --> 01:18:48.310
you do this because I would never do that to
1738
01:18:48.390 --> 01:18:49.550
somebody on the left.
1739
01:18:49.729 --> 01:18:49.890
Yeah.
1740
01:18:50.050 --> 01:18:52.010
I wouldn't, you know, I don't get up, like I
1741
01:18:52.029 --> 01:18:57.689
would go, when you think about people you disagree with,
1742
01:18:57.789 --> 01:19:05.109
let's just say you take somebody like John Leguizamo, very
1743
01:19:05.149 --> 01:19:05.720
hard left.
1744
01:19:06.189 --> 01:19:06.489
Okay.
1745
01:19:06.680 --> 01:19:09.479
I would go, I don't agree with the guy's politics.
1746
01:19:12.109 --> 01:19:15.039
Is he a misogynist? Is he racist?
1747
01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:15.720
I don't know.
1748
01:19:15.859 --> 01:19:18.680
I'm sure he isn't. Why would he be?
1749
01:19:18.800 --> 01:19:19.180
I don't know.
1750
01:19:19.420 --> 01:19:22.880
I disagree with this. I'm just disagreeing with him.
1751
01:19:23.119 --> 01:19:23.520
I don't know.
1752
01:19:23.579 --> 01:19:25.699
He probably treats his wife very well, and he loves
1753
01:19:25.760 --> 01:19:30.670
his kids, and I don't think he's racist. But why
1754
01:19:30.750 --> 01:19:33.670
doesn't anyone get to know? And I'll tell you, for me,
1755
01:19:33.729 --> 01:19:37.130
the reason I sound this way, Is because I get
1756
01:19:37.229 --> 01:19:42.569
to know these people. I know the, sorry, the Dennis
1757
01:19:42.609 --> 01:19:45.149
Prager's well, or the Jordan Peterson's or the Ben Shapiro's.
1758
01:19:45.270 --> 01:19:47.310
I get to know these people and they're nothing of
1759
01:19:47.350 --> 01:19:50.430
the sort. There's nothing even close to this.
1760
01:19:50.689 --> 01:19:50.930
Yeah.
1761
01:19:51.479 --> 01:19:55.600
And also the fucking balls. of you just going out
1762
01:19:55.659 --> 01:19:58.739
there and just yelling the shit into a microphone. You're
1763
01:19:58.800 --> 01:20:03.000
slandering people. You're calling them the worst thing you can
1764
01:20:03.100 --> 01:20:05.720
call them, and you have no history with them, and
1765
01:20:05.739 --> 01:20:07.020
you've never seen one of their videos.
1766
01:20:07.140 --> 01:20:10.159
Also, Jordan Peterson, when that guy first started making the rounds,
1767
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:11.880
everybody was on board with it.
1768
01:20:12.340 --> 01:20:12.779
But then the.
1769
01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:16.310
Right started sharing a few of his clips and people
1770
01:20:16.369 --> 01:20:19.130
on the right started having him on their podcast. And
1771
01:20:19.170 --> 01:20:22.899
now all of a sudden he becomes this mouthpiece for hatred.
1772
01:20:23.199 --> 01:20:24.739
How?
1773
01:20:24.779 --> 01:20:25.539
He's never wavered.
1774
01:20:25.579 --> 01:20:28.699
And even stuff that doesn't line up with right values,
1775
01:20:28.939 --> 01:20:30.479
he still goes, yeah, but these are the facts.
1776
01:20:30.819 --> 01:20:34.970
He's a Canadian professor who was basically told to use pronouns,
1777
01:20:35.090 --> 01:20:38.569
and he was like, fuck that. And because it's Canada,
1778
01:20:39.270 --> 01:20:43.539
Canada is basically California in five years. They wanted to
1779
01:20:43.579 --> 01:20:45.520
punish him because of his thoughts.
1780
01:20:46.460 --> 01:20:50.149
Okay. Anyway, Jesus Christ. She is fucking worse than he is.
1781
01:20:50.500 --> 01:20:51.399
All right, what's in the news?
1782
01:20:51.600 --> 01:20:54.510
All right, so former Saturday Night Live star Leslie Jones
1783
01:20:54.520 --> 01:20:55.229
was slammed online.
1784
01:20:55.250 --> 01:20:57.550
You can't say star. You cannot.
1785
01:20:57.710 --> 01:20:59.970
What do you think is the correct, what shall we
1786
01:21:00.010 --> 01:21:01.970
call her? What is her pronoun here when it comes
1787
01:21:02.010 --> 01:21:02.569
to SNL?
1788
01:21:02.630 --> 01:21:09.609
Alum? Even that's lofty for her because she did nothing
1789
01:21:09.890 --> 01:21:12.970
on SNL except for butcher short bits of dialogue.
1790
01:21:13.350 --> 01:21:16.380
You once called her the unfunny black dude on Saturday.
1791
01:21:16.439 --> 01:21:23.279
No, I was doing, sorry. I was doing a roast.
1792
01:21:23.760 --> 01:21:27.279
I think it was a Baldwin roast. And it was
1793
01:21:27.970 --> 01:21:28.949
was a Chris Redd.
1794
01:21:29.949 --> 01:21:30.510
Oh, sure. Yeah.
1795
01:21:30.529 --> 01:21:31.210
Former SNL.
1796
01:21:31.310 --> 01:21:31.649
Yeah.
1797
01:21:32.430 --> 01:21:35.630
And and this is Leslie Jones.
1798
01:21:35.689 --> 01:21:35.850
Right.
1799
01:21:35.909 --> 01:21:38.770
So I said Chris Redd was on the dais with us.
1800
01:21:38.869 --> 01:21:39.489
And I said.
1801
01:21:42.060 --> 01:21:47.840
When I heard the unfunny black dude got fired from SNL,
1802
01:21:48.720 --> 01:21:49.420
I thought.
1803
01:21:49.960 --> 01:21:52.960
It was Leslie Jones. I didn't know it was you, Chris.
1804
01:21:53.000 --> 01:21:54.300
So that was crazy.
1805
01:21:54.380 --> 01:21:56.539
I love that one.
1806
01:21:56.739 --> 01:21:59.420
That is a kind of funny joke, right? Because it's
1807
01:21:59.460 --> 01:22:01.619
always good to roast other people up there.
1808
01:22:01.640 --> 01:22:02.189
Yeah.
1809
01:22:02.859 --> 01:22:03.060
Yeah.
1810
01:22:03.100 --> 01:22:05.390
Just a little bit of like, you know, friendly fire. Well,
1811
01:22:05.409 --> 01:22:06.270
the best is.
1812
01:22:06.250 --> 01:22:08.789
When you can roast. I made fun of both of
1813
01:22:08.850 --> 01:22:10.789
them in one joke.
1814
01:22:11.010 --> 01:22:11.229
Yeah.
1815
01:22:11.369 --> 01:22:15.579
She's not. I don't know if it's a DEI hire
1816
01:22:15.600 --> 01:22:18.859
or whatever. She is no, her stand of comedy is
1817
01:22:18.920 --> 01:22:23.359
wash my ass, basically. And then her stand, I don't know.
1818
01:22:23.619 --> 01:22:28.310
You find the bit that she was good on on SNL.
1819
01:22:28.329 --> 01:22:31.390
But anyway, all right, we'll play the clip.
1820
01:22:32.210 --> 01:22:34.029
I think marriage is legalized slavery.
1821
01:22:34.430 --> 01:22:34.949
You do?
1822
01:22:35.130 --> 01:22:35.569
Yes, I do.
1823
01:22:35.590 --> 01:22:38.250
Say more, because if I'm thinking about slavery and I'm
1824
01:22:38.270 --> 01:22:40.909
thinking about marriage, there are two different images that come.
1825
01:22:40.630 --> 01:22:41.090
Into my head.
1826
01:22:41.130 --> 01:22:43.390
Absolutely not. I don't think, I don't know how you don't.
1827
01:22:44.350 --> 01:22:46.970
Man is, especially if he's expecting you to be a
1828
01:22:46.989 --> 01:22:49.149
trad wife, he might as well pull out a whip
1829
01:22:51.130 --> 01:22:51.649
and a chain.
1830
01:22:51.939 --> 01:22:52.489
Jesus.
1831
01:22:52.520 --> 01:22:53.560
All right.
1832
01:22:53.739 --> 01:22:54.899
She's fucking dumb.
1833
01:22:55.220 --> 01:22:57.380
I mean, she's dumb. She's a dumb person.
1834
01:22:57.439 --> 01:22:58.600
Now, what is trag?
1835
01:22:58.720 --> 01:22:59.979
And I know it's a new one.
1836
01:23:00.619 --> 01:23:01.500
So it's trad.
1837
01:23:01.859 --> 01:23:02.739
Trad.
1838
01:23:02.840 --> 01:23:04.319
Which is traditional wife.
1839
01:23:04.859 --> 01:23:05.619
A trad wife.
1840
01:23:05.729 --> 01:23:06.010
Okay.
1841
01:23:06.289 --> 01:23:07.109
Oh, okay.
1842
01:23:07.210 --> 01:23:11.289
First things first. Do we need to shorten everything?
1843
01:23:11.529 --> 01:23:11.789
No. No.
1844
01:23:12.829 --> 01:23:14.949
I got time for you to say all of traditional.
1845
01:23:15.590 --> 01:23:18.210
Um, okay.
1846
01:23:18.590 --> 01:23:25.270
Traditional wives, I would argue percentage wise, traditional wives are
1847
01:23:25.310 --> 01:23:28.609
happier than whatever version we're trying to shit out. Now
1848
01:23:28.649 --> 01:23:30.550
we're telling them they don't need kids and they need
1849
01:23:30.590 --> 01:23:32.909
to work and someone else can cook the meals and
1850
01:23:32.930 --> 01:23:35.789
they should call grub hub and all women are fucking
1851
01:23:35.829 --> 01:23:37.789
going nuts. I don't know if you noticed it lately
1852
01:23:37.850 --> 01:23:42.760
because we've taken them away from tradition. Um, I don't
1853
01:23:43.010 --> 01:23:46.329
get this thing. It used to happen to me in
1854
01:23:46.369 --> 01:23:50.630
my marriage. I would sort of be open, which is, look,
1855
01:23:50.850 --> 01:23:54.090
I'm going to work all the time and provide you
1856
01:23:54.109 --> 01:23:57.210
with tons of money, but you got to go shopping
1857
01:23:57.250 --> 01:23:59.390
and then you got to cook the whatever. And it
1858
01:23:59.430 --> 01:24:01.310
was always like, I don't get why we have a
1859
01:24:01.350 --> 01:24:04.119
full-time nanny and a cleaning crew. Why do we have
1860
01:24:04.159 --> 01:24:06.800
a cleaning crew? Just you're, you don't have a job.
1861
01:24:06.840 --> 01:24:07.520
You can clean her.
1862
01:24:07.760 --> 01:24:09.539
And if you said any of that shit out loud,
1863
01:24:09.579 --> 01:24:12.140
I was like, Oh, caveman Corolla's coming in here with
1864
01:24:12.199 --> 01:24:15.359
his club. And it's like, Fuck you. Number one, you
1865
01:24:15.380 --> 01:24:18.000
go on the fucking road every weekend. How about that?
1866
01:24:18.380 --> 01:24:21.560
You fucking fly Southwest. You go make a shitload of money,
1867
01:24:21.819 --> 01:24:24.060
and then I'll stay home and kick ass. But you're
1868
01:24:24.090 --> 01:24:25.590
not capable of doing that.
1869
01:24:25.850 --> 01:24:26.670
Well, I am.
1870
01:24:27.510 --> 01:24:29.189
And by the way, the reason you're miserable is because
1871
01:24:29.210 --> 01:24:30.750
you fucking sit around all day.
1872
01:24:30.850 --> 01:24:32.930
Get fucking busy. Do the things.
1873
01:24:33.050 --> 01:24:37.850
And I'm fine with traditional roles. But if you'd like
1874
01:24:37.890 --> 01:24:41.439
to flip... The roles, and then you can work your
1875
01:24:41.520 --> 01:24:43.560
fucking ass off and make a ton of money.
1876
01:24:43.859 --> 01:24:46.270
I will happily stay home and take care of business.
1877
01:24:46.689 --> 01:24:51.569
Any guy would be totally cool with two incomes, one household,
1878
01:24:51.689 --> 01:24:54.199
and everything be split down the middle. Now, in some cases,
1879
01:24:54.220 --> 01:24:55.699
you have guys and girls who can go out there
1880
01:24:55.720 --> 01:24:56.859
and make a ton of dough and then come back.
1881
01:24:56.880 --> 01:24:59.859
I mean, I look at Kelly Clarkson, and her husband,
1882
01:25:00.060 --> 01:25:01.579
he basically took her to the cleaners.
1883
01:25:01.640 --> 01:25:02.439
Good for him.
1884
01:25:02.539 --> 01:25:04.260
Although I hate to say it, he's a piece of shit.
1885
01:25:04.319 --> 01:25:08.359
Absolutely, yes. It's nice having it swing back the other way.
1886
01:25:09.100 --> 01:25:13.479
Chime. Chime is changing the way people bank because it's
1887
01:25:13.590 --> 01:25:19.050

Pay never.
1913
01:27:01.310 --> 01:27:07.310
But listen, I'm sensitive to this because the only working
1914
01:27:07.630 --> 01:27:11.810
couple I ever experienced was my grandparents. My grandmother worked full-time.
1915
01:27:11.829 --> 01:27:15.949
My grandfather stayed at home. And he dutifully cooked and
1916
01:27:16.090 --> 01:27:20.050
cleaned and, like, fixed sprinklers. And there was no such
1917
01:27:20.109 --> 01:27:22.449
thing as takeout. And there would have been no such
1918
01:27:22.510 --> 01:27:25.109
thing as him calling my grandma and going, on the
1919
01:27:25.170 --> 01:27:27.010
way home, could you pick up some Thai food? I'm
1920
01:27:27.510 --> 01:27:30.819
in the mood for Thai. It didn't fucking exist. Here's
1921
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:34.739
what I'm saying. If everyone wants to work, then everyone
1922
01:27:34.779 --> 01:27:37.760
should work and we'll have our dual income and then
1923
01:27:37.779 --> 01:27:41.159
we'll get a maid and we'll bring home fast food
1924
01:27:41.199 --> 01:27:42.989
or take out because we're both at work all day.
1925
01:27:43.270 --> 01:27:43.470
Fine.
1926
01:27:43.510 --> 01:27:44.130
We can do it that way.
1927
01:27:44.590 --> 01:27:48.130
Or you can go out and be a super successful lawyer.
1928
01:27:48.430 --> 01:27:51.420
I'll fucking sit around the house all day. But then
1929
01:27:51.460 --> 01:27:54.010
it'll be on me to make the food and clean
1930
01:27:54.020 --> 01:27:56.670
the shit. We shouldn't be spending your money on cleaning
1931
01:27:56.770 --> 01:28:00.069
services or takeout food or any of that shit. I'll
1932
01:28:00.090 --> 01:28:04.569
handle that. Or I'll go out and you can fucking
1933
01:28:04.829 --> 01:28:07.789
do that. There is no version where you go out
1934
01:28:07.930 --> 01:28:10.430
and you're a super successful lawyer and I hang around
1935
01:28:10.489 --> 01:28:12.390
all day and talk shit about you to my fucking
1936
01:28:12.449 --> 01:28:15.439
friends where I'm not considered a lazy piece of shit.
1937
01:28:16.260 --> 01:28:18.340
Why are you not a lazy piece of shit when
1938
01:28:18.380 --> 01:28:19.859
you do this? And then why am I a piece
1939
01:28:19.899 --> 01:28:21.000
of shit if I get to bring it up?
1940
01:28:21.119 --> 01:28:21.359
Yeah.
1941
01:28:21.960 --> 01:28:22.600
Yeah.
1942
01:28:23.020 --> 01:28:25.399
It's amazing how many times you go to a couple's
1943
01:28:25.460 --> 01:28:28.239
therapist and one of the biggest gripes that men will
1944
01:28:28.300 --> 01:28:30.140
have when it comes to their wives is I go out,
1945
01:28:30.180 --> 01:28:31.970
I make the money, I come home, everything is still
1946
01:28:32.020 --> 01:28:32.319
a mess.
1947
01:28:32.689 --> 01:28:34.710
Nothing is taken care of. Can we please try to
1948
01:28:34.770 --> 01:28:35.229
figure it out?
1949
01:28:35.569 --> 01:28:37.909
And there's always a little bit of pushback from the
1950
01:28:37.949 --> 01:28:38.710
therapist who goes.
1951
01:28:39.109 --> 01:28:39.970
Well, maybe there's a compromise.
1952
01:28:40.470 --> 01:28:40.810
In the middle.
1953
01:28:40.869 --> 01:28:42.090
No, there is no compromise.
1954
01:28:42.109 --> 01:28:44.329
The compromise is I bring home all the money, get
1955
01:28:44.350 --> 01:28:46.350
some shit done. So I come home at five o'clock.
1956
01:28:46.489 --> 01:28:48.720
Everybody is able to just enjoy the rest of our
1957
01:28:48.800 --> 01:28:51.340
evening together. That would be a perfect world, would it not?
1958
01:28:51.979 --> 01:28:54.699
I had a therapist once when I was begging my
1959
01:28:54.760 --> 01:28:58.180
ex-wife to buy healthy food and protein and stop with
1960
01:28:58.199 --> 01:29:00.779
the fucking pizzas and the pastas and all the bullshit.
1961
01:29:01.699 --> 01:29:04.300
And I just kept saying, just, you know, make them
1962
01:29:04.420 --> 01:29:08.229
eggs in the morning and stop with Vinnie Tortorich. Be like,
1963
01:29:08.270 --> 01:29:10.060
you got to get on the protein. You got there
1964
01:29:10.119 --> 01:29:13.189
eating too much junk and frozen food and stuff. And
1965
01:29:13.229 --> 01:29:15.869
then at some point I was like, spend all the
1966
01:29:15.909 --> 01:29:18.569
money you want. Just get the good stuff. Get the
1967
01:29:18.609 --> 01:29:20.829
good meats. Get the good cheese. Get the good protein
1968
01:29:20.850 --> 01:29:24.850
or whatever. And then at some point, the therapist said, well,
1969
01:29:24.869 --> 01:29:27.390
you know, if Adam wants this so bad, then he
1970
01:29:27.430 --> 01:29:30.310
should take the kids out shopping. And I'm like, or
1971
01:29:30.350 --> 01:29:32.609
you could just fucking get the shit Vinny told you
1972
01:29:32.649 --> 01:29:35.489
to buy with my money and come home. Why do
1973
01:29:35.569 --> 01:29:36.829
I got, I'm fucking working.
1974
01:29:37.050 --> 01:29:37.409
Yeah.
1975
01:29:38.670 --> 01:29:41.850
I'll tell you what it is. It's cheese. Don't get
1976
01:29:41.869 --> 01:29:45.529
the Hot Pockets. Don't get the toaster pastry. It's super straightforward.
1977
01:29:45.550 --> 01:29:48.149
So we are fucking nuts. This is why our society
1978
01:29:48.170 --> 01:29:50.550
is falling apart. And here's the deal.
1979
01:29:51.210 --> 01:29:51.989
For anybody.
1980
01:29:53.750 --> 01:29:58.250
If one person is working and providing all of the money,
1981
01:29:58.930 --> 01:30:05.680
they are allowed to have requests and ask for things. Listen,
1982
01:30:06.000 --> 01:30:10.659
Daphne's in the next room. I pay her. I get
1983
01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:13.159
to leave this studio and I get to walk over
1984
01:30:13.180 --> 01:30:16.659
there and I get to go, Daphne, we're going to
1985
01:30:16.699 --> 01:30:20.109
write an email to so-and-so or I need you to
1986
01:30:20.170 --> 01:30:21.000
pick something up.
1987
01:30:21.329 --> 01:30:23.229
Pick up my dry clean. I'm allowed to do it.
1988
01:30:24.170 --> 01:30:27.229
If I don't pay her, then I'm not allowed to
1989
01:30:27.300 --> 01:30:30.520
tell her what to do. We have a relationship. I
1990
01:30:30.539 --> 01:30:33.960
fucking pay her. So for this period of time, she
1991
01:30:34.079 --> 01:30:37.399
listens and does what I ask her to do. That's
1992
01:30:37.460 --> 01:30:38.260
our relationship.
1993
01:30:39.140 --> 01:30:39.720
If she was.
1994
01:30:39.659 --> 01:30:42.819
Paying me, then no, I couldn't tell her what to do.
1995
01:30:43.039 --> 01:30:45.180
And if I paid her nothing, I still couldn't tell
1996
01:30:45.220 --> 01:30:47.939
her what to do. So if you're going out and
1997
01:30:47.960 --> 01:30:51.829
you're busting your hump and you're working and then you
1998
01:30:51.890 --> 01:30:56.390
should expect X amount of work while we're gone. And
1999
01:30:56.609 --> 01:31:01.029
like I said, my grandfather honored that code. He said,
2000
01:31:02.020 --> 01:31:05.300
she's contributing. I must contribute. And I'm not going to
2001
01:31:05.340 --> 01:31:09.859
contribute by spending her money on a cleaning crew. I'll
2002
01:31:09.920 --> 01:31:13.680
clean myself. And it was understood. And all you have
2003
01:31:13.699 --> 01:31:15.260
to do is flip the script and have the guy
2004
01:31:15.279 --> 01:31:17.680
be the one that stays home. with a full-time nanny,
2005
01:31:17.779 --> 01:31:19.340
and then you'll realize that guy's a piece of shit.
2006
01:31:19.859 --> 01:31:21.479
That's the math.
2007
01:31:21.619 --> 01:31:23.979
Ask any dad who ever pays for their kid's car.
2008
01:31:24.579 --> 01:31:27.220
When he pays a monthly stipend every single month, he
2009
01:31:27.260 --> 01:31:30.060
makes that payment. When he hangs that over their kid's
2010
01:31:30.159 --> 01:31:33.050
head saying, hey, I need you to get this done
2011
01:31:33.270 --> 01:31:35.390
or there's no more car, how many times does the
2012
01:31:35.409 --> 01:31:37.970
wife come back and say, you can't do that to them.
2013
01:31:37.989 --> 01:31:38.750
That's not fair.
2014
01:31:38.789 --> 01:31:40.930
No, I'm the guy paying for it. Of course I can.
2015
01:31:40.949 --> 01:31:42.430
That's why I do it.
2016
01:31:42.470 --> 01:31:46.300
By the way, There's no woman who would ever put
2017
01:31:46.399 --> 01:31:49.079
up with that relationship. You fucking go out work all
2018
01:31:49.159 --> 01:31:50.960
day and weekends and stuff, and then you just come
2019
01:31:51.000 --> 01:31:53.020
home and go, make yourself dinner. I didn't do it
2020
01:31:53.079 --> 01:31:54.880
or I didn't feel like it. Are you fucking nuts?
2021
01:31:54.960 --> 01:31:55.119
Yeah.
2022
01:31:55.140 --> 01:31:56.140
They wouldn't put up with it.
2023
01:31:56.199 --> 01:31:58.539
There's a great scene in Mad Men with Jon Hamm
2024
01:31:58.560 --> 01:32:00.479
where I think it's his secretary has given him some
2025
01:32:00.539 --> 01:32:02.800
heat and says something like, you know, I do all
2026
01:32:02.840 --> 01:32:04.500
this stuff for you. And he goes, and then I
2027
01:32:04.560 --> 01:32:07.560
pay you money. And she says, well, you never say
2028
01:32:07.659 --> 01:32:11.189
thank you. And his response is, that's what the money is.
2029
01:32:11.319 --> 01:32:11.470
Right.
2030
01:32:11.600 --> 01:32:13.869
It's my thank you for doing the thing I asked
2031
01:32:13.890 --> 01:32:14.430
you to do.
2032
01:32:14.750 --> 01:32:18.689
So anyway, Leslie Jones, unfunny, dumb, and who knows. And
2033
01:32:18.750 --> 01:32:22.720
about black people, everything's slavery. I know for you guys,
2034
01:32:22.760 --> 01:32:28.350
but that's a weird one. And it worked. It worked
2035
01:32:28.369 --> 01:32:31.930
for Time Memorial about the wife cooks and cleans, and
2036
01:32:31.949 --> 01:32:33.989
the wives are happier, and the kids are fucking happier.
2037
01:32:34.170 --> 01:32:37.909
It's a better life, everyone, so sorry, tough shit. But now,
2038
01:32:38.569 --> 01:32:40.729
fucking go out, don't have kids, and work your ass
2039
01:32:40.770 --> 01:32:41.069
to death.
2040
01:32:41.090 --> 01:32:41.590
Fine.
2041
01:32:42.409 --> 01:32:45.689
Four suspects were busted after Baldwin Park Police uncovered a
2042
01:32:45.850 --> 01:32:51.800
staggering half a million dollar plus cash of stolen catalytic
2043
01:32:51.819 --> 01:32:56.199
converters and a massive Norwalk takedown. capping a month-long probe
2044
01:32:56.300 --> 01:32:59.479
launched amid a surge of thefts across Los Angeles.
2045
01:32:59.539 --> 01:33:00.560
Look at that thing, huh?
2046
01:33:00.729 --> 01:33:03.609
I'm going to say this, $ 500, 000 worth of thing. If
2047
01:33:03.630 --> 01:33:11.489
there is one Japanese guy, Jewish guy, or white guy
2048
01:33:11.550 --> 01:33:15.210
involved with this operation, I will apologize to every single
2049
01:33:15.250 --> 01:33:19.890
community because I can tell you that it's literally impossible.
2050
01:33:19.909 --> 01:33:24.029
I don't care if they busted 200,000 people. There would
2051
01:33:24.090 --> 01:33:28.189
not be one Japanese guy. There would not be one Jew.
2052
01:33:29.109 --> 01:33:30.789
And we're not even going to find a black guy
2053
01:33:30.970 --> 01:33:31.729
in this crew.
2054
01:33:32.250 --> 01:33:32.449
No.
2055
01:33:32.569 --> 01:33:33.600
Or a white guy.
2056
01:33:34.029 --> 01:33:35.590
Well, did you see the picture right there, Andrew? Can
2057
01:33:35.609 --> 01:33:37.359
you put that back up? Did you see the photo
2058
01:33:37.760 --> 01:33:39.800
of the lady in the top? Yeah.
2059
01:33:39.840 --> 01:33:43.039
So you got the blonde lady of a certain stature.
2060
01:33:43.060 --> 01:33:47.199
Well, you say blonde, but I'm going to go Hispanic
2061
01:33:47.279 --> 01:33:48.250
with the dyed blonde.
2062
01:33:48.270 --> 01:33:49.489
With the dyed blonde?
2063
01:33:49.789 --> 01:33:50.470
Okay.
2064
01:33:51.470 --> 01:33:55.300
I'm going to say you go top left. I know
2065
01:33:55.340 --> 01:33:57.479
Hispanic ladies with dyed hair.
2066
01:33:58.500 --> 01:34:00.840
The tight yoga pants and flat shoes.
2067
01:34:00.890 --> 01:34:02.409
That ain't Morgan Fairchild.
2068
01:34:02.430 --> 01:34:03.270
Okay. All right.
2069
01:34:03.310 --> 01:34:05.069
So I'm going to go. I don't know if you
2070
01:34:05.109 --> 01:34:07.729
can blow it up, but it's going to be one
2071
01:34:07.890 --> 01:34:11.760
big Alvarez Street because this is their turf.
2072
01:34:12.020 --> 01:34:13.140
Yeah. Yeah.
2073
01:34:13.180 --> 01:34:13.460
Wow.
2074
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:18.859
So I'm so confused with the catalytic converter stuff because
2075
01:34:18.880 --> 01:34:20.720
I come from a land where this doesn't happen all
2076
01:34:20.760 --> 01:34:23.479
the time. But what do these guys do with this?
2077
01:34:23.520 --> 01:34:25.850
They steal the catalytic converter and then they turn it in?
2078
01:34:25.930 --> 01:34:27.359
I mean, how?
2079
01:34:27.739 --> 01:34:32.810
They have– well, first off, L.A. is one big black
2080
01:34:32.930 --> 01:34:36.050
market now. We let it turn into a black market
2081
01:34:36.069 --> 01:34:38.090
because we just opened the borders and.
2082
01:34:38.310 --> 01:34:40.050
This is what they do in Mexico.
2083
01:34:40.270 --> 01:34:45.779
So it's all cartel-y stuff. And it's all the heavy
2084
01:34:45.840 --> 01:34:48.920
metals that are in there, in the catalytic converters. And
2085
01:34:49.020 --> 01:34:52.359
I don't think they resell the catalytic converters. They sell
2086
01:34:52.420 --> 01:34:57.859
the metals in them. So you do realize that Los Angeles,
2087
01:34:59.180 --> 01:35:02.199
we steal copper from the wires.
2088
01:35:02.239 --> 01:35:03.220
I got a story about that.
2089
01:35:03.260 --> 01:35:03.579
Yes.
2090
01:35:03.659 --> 01:35:08.939
Yep. You got another story about telecom wire. We're pulling,
2091
01:35:08.979 --> 01:35:11.149
and you can look it up, Dawson, but we're pulling
2092
01:35:11.189 --> 01:35:12.770
the metals out of there.
2093
01:35:13.270 --> 01:35:14.989
We are stealing elements.
2094
01:35:15.630 --> 01:35:19.289
Now, we're at the point where we're not stealing car
2095
01:35:19.369 --> 01:35:26.250
stereos or big panel TVs. We're stealing things on periodic charts.
2096
01:35:26.489 --> 01:35:26.609
Mm-hmm.
2097
01:35:28.829 --> 01:35:36.149
Rare earth black market. Yeah. It's rare earth black market stage.
2098
01:35:36.170 --> 01:35:36.270
Wow.
2099
01:35:36.289 --> 01:35:38.470
I don't know why it says stage on there. But anyway,
2100
01:35:38.489 --> 01:35:42.600
that's right. So you do realize in L.A. we're stealing
2101
01:35:43.029 --> 01:35:48.100
minerals now. And once in a while– oh, we're at
2102
01:35:48.119 --> 01:35:48.600
that stage.
2103
01:35:48.640 --> 01:35:49.920
Sorry. Let me print it out.
2104
01:35:50.279 --> 01:35:52.979
Once in a while we break it up by stealing
2105
01:35:53.000 --> 01:35:53.680
someone's pet.
2106
01:35:53.699 --> 01:35:56.170
Right. We're stealing dogs.
2107
01:35:56.250 --> 01:35:57.670
Yeah, Lady Gaga's dogs.
2108
01:35:57.689 --> 01:36:01.880
We're stealing cable and dogs. It used to be wallets.
2109
01:36:02.460 --> 01:36:02.779
Yeah.
2110
01:36:02.960 --> 01:36:03.500
Jewels.
2111
01:36:03.680 --> 01:36:06.180
You're right. Car stereos, hubcaps.
2112
01:36:06.300 --> 01:36:07.060
Hubcaps.
2113
01:36:07.100 --> 01:36:07.500
Yeah.
2114
01:36:07.560 --> 01:36:11.319
We'd be jewel thieves. There'd be guys who robbed banks.
2115
01:36:11.380 --> 01:36:14.039
We're stealing shit that's on the street.
2116
01:36:14.079 --> 01:36:14.420
Yeah.
2117
01:36:14.560 --> 01:36:16.079
Materials and dogs.
2118
01:36:16.140 --> 01:36:16.579
Yeah.
2119
01:36:16.760 --> 01:36:19.060
I liked a time when we just stole identities on
2120
01:36:19.079 --> 01:36:21.560
the internet. Now we're back to physically stealing things again,
2121
01:36:21.600 --> 01:36:22.920
and I don't know if I'm all about it.
2122
01:36:23.020 --> 01:36:26.800
I liked- When people stole diamonds and then every good
2123
01:36:27.460 --> 01:36:31.439
copper movie, it's like every one of those like Friday
2124
01:36:32.369 --> 01:36:34.069
police shows, you know what I mean? They have the
2125
01:36:34.109 --> 01:36:36.470
bad guy and he'd go Starsky and Hutch or something.
2126
01:36:36.489 --> 01:36:39.770
They go, we're going to move the ice. They love
2127
01:36:39.810 --> 01:36:40.369
saying ice.
2128
01:36:40.829 --> 01:36:43.250
They loved saying ice for diamonds.
2129
01:36:43.289 --> 01:36:43.829
Yeah.
2130
01:36:43.869 --> 01:36:44.090
Yeah.
2131
01:36:44.109 --> 01:36:45.670
We got to fence this ice.
2132
01:36:46.430 --> 01:36:46.989
Yeah.
2133
01:36:47.130 --> 01:36:50.029
I don't know why for like a seven year period
2134
01:36:50.189 --> 01:36:51.090
from like 1977 to.
2135
01:36:53.829 --> 01:36:56.869
To 1984, we just said ice, and they fucking loved it.
2136
01:36:56.890 --> 01:36:58.750
There's always the end when the guy shows up, the
2137
01:36:58.789 --> 01:37:00.699
dude who stole it, and then he comes to the
2138
01:37:00.760 --> 01:37:04.500
guy's giant palatial place, this billionaire who wanted the diamonds,
2139
01:37:04.539 --> 01:37:06.399
and he's sitting on his back patio, and he takes
2140
01:37:06.420 --> 01:37:08.659
that black bag, and he throws it onto the table,
2141
01:37:08.699 --> 01:37:09.060
and he goes.
2142
01:37:09.079 --> 01:37:10.119
I'm out.
2143
01:37:10.510 --> 01:37:11.270
I'm out. I'm out.
2144
01:37:11.409 --> 01:37:12.189
Keep your eyes.
2145
01:37:12.229 --> 01:37:12.409
Yeah.
2146
01:37:12.909 --> 01:37:13.310
I'm out.
2147
01:37:13.510 --> 01:37:13.970
No more.
2148
01:37:14.289 --> 01:37:14.470
Yeah.
2149
01:37:14.510 --> 01:37:15.630
What is the story you got?
2150
01:37:15.710 --> 01:37:18.810
The story is that they've been stealing. Oh, this goes
2151
01:37:18.850 --> 01:37:20.770
back to your rich man, poor man, by the way,
2152
01:37:20.850 --> 01:37:24.220
because rich man, poor man, you know, the going price
2153
01:37:24.340 --> 01:37:25.619
of copper, which by the way, do you know the
2154
01:37:25.640 --> 01:37:26.380
going price of copper?
2155
01:37:27.250 --> 01:37:29.270
I have no idea.
2156
01:37:29.270 --> 01:37:29.430
$ 5.
2157
01:37:29.270 --> 01:37:30.399
60 per pound right now.
2158
01:37:30.529 --> 01:37:30.810
Okay.
2159
01:37:30.840 --> 01:37:32.199
But one of the things, this came out in the
2160
01:37:32.220 --> 01:37:37.199
New York Post, that Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass believes
2161
01:37:37.439 --> 01:37:40.539
that solar-powered streetlights will make it harder for thieves to
2162
01:37:40.579 --> 01:37:42.220
swoop in and steal the copper.
2163
01:37:42.260 --> 01:37:43.199
That is her solution.
2164
01:37:43.239 --> 01:37:45.500
But let me, we'll play you the clip. But let
2165
01:37:45.539 --> 01:37:47.689
me explain something to Karen Bass and all the fucking
2166
01:37:47.699 --> 01:37:53.600
fruitcakes on the left. Criminals make money stealing shit. So,
2167
01:37:54.079 --> 01:37:56.800
all right, you make pot legal.
2168
01:37:57.140 --> 01:37:57.439
All right.
2169
01:37:57.649 --> 01:37:59.649
They don't bring in pot. They bring in fentanyl.
2170
01:38:00.409 --> 01:38:00.729
Okay.
2171
01:38:01.090 --> 01:38:04.909
You stop fentanyl. Oh, we'll do human trafficking. They're super
2172
01:38:05.010 --> 01:38:10.039
fucking versatile. They didn't steal copper because they're copper enthusiasts.
2173
01:38:10.060 --> 01:38:14.000
They fucking sell it. They'll be stealing your solar panels.
2174
01:38:14.039 --> 01:38:14.800
You understand?
2175
01:38:15.060 --> 01:38:18.739
You don't get it. They'll steal whatever. Now, you can
2176
01:38:18.779 --> 01:38:21.119
go ahead and try to figure out why they're doing
2177
01:38:21.149 --> 01:38:23.350
this or who they are or who's shitting them out
2178
01:38:23.390 --> 01:38:25.560
or what they're doing in our town. That'll stop The
2179
01:38:25.579 --> 01:38:29.199
part where you're just going to keep, hey, take all
2180
01:38:29.279 --> 01:38:30.420
the batteries.
2181
01:38:29.979 --> 01:38:31.069
And lock them in a cage.
2182
01:38:31.170 --> 01:38:31.409
Good.
2183
01:38:31.689 --> 01:38:34.430
They'll start stealing deodorant. That's how they work.
2184
01:38:34.489 --> 01:38:34.689
Yes.
2185
01:38:35.029 --> 01:38:35.810
Okay, here we go.
2186
01:38:36.770 --> 01:38:38.890
Well, Christine, a lot of time these crooks go after
2187
01:38:38.949 --> 01:38:41.369
streetlights like this one. Joab will show you they broke
2188
01:38:41.449 --> 01:38:44.170
in here and knocked out power to this side and
2189
01:38:44.210 --> 01:38:45.270
much of the neighborhood.
2190
01:38:45.569 --> 01:38:47.050
But this time the crooks went.
2191
01:38:46.989 --> 01:38:50.590
After Internet cables underground and it was all caught on camera.
2192
01:38:52.819 --> 01:38:54.739
Copper wire cracks strike again.
2193
01:38:54.760 --> 01:38:56.560
This time around 3 a.m.
2194
01:38:56.600 --> 01:38:59.199
In Van Nuys, one man wearing a hoodie, the other
2195
01:38:59.300 --> 01:39:02.369
shirtless with a medical mask, surgically removing wires.
2196
01:39:02.609 --> 01:39:04.970
It was loud and then I was like, hold on,
2197
01:39:05.250 --> 01:39:07.029
people have been stealing copper because I.
2198
01:39:06.989 --> 01:39:07.569
Walk these streets.
2199
01:39:08.029 --> 01:39:13.220
Candace Cervantes heard the action and started recording. Her video
2200
01:39:13.239 --> 01:39:16.960
shows the shirtless suspect pulling internet cables from underground while
2201
01:39:17.000 --> 01:39:19.350
his partner stands watch near the getaway car.
2202
01:39:19.359 --> 01:39:22.729
And then he even took a long black cable, tied
2203
01:39:22.770 --> 01:39:25.489
it to his car, and they were trying to, like,
2204
01:39:25.510 --> 01:39:25.899
really take it out.
2205
01:39:25.909 --> 01:39:27.270
This is the middle of the night, the middle of
2206
01:39:27.310 --> 01:39:28.829
Van Nuys. Oh, by the way, hold on.
2207
01:39:29.409 --> 01:39:31.609
The police station is in Van Nuys.
2208
01:39:32.970 --> 01:39:33.689
Van Nuys, the courthouse.
2209
01:39:36.739 --> 01:39:38.840
If you want to go down to the courthouse or
2210
01:39:38.920 --> 01:39:41.680
you want to pull a permit, building permits, or the
2211
01:39:41.720 --> 01:39:45.520
police station, they're all in Van Nuys, right off of
2212
01:39:45.539 --> 01:39:48.039
Van Nuys, in the fucking middle of Van Nuys. So
2213
01:39:48.970 --> 01:39:50.930
Van Nuys isn't that big.
2214
01:39:51.270 --> 01:39:51.970
Anyway, go ahead.
2215
01:39:51.989 --> 01:39:52.670
Good.
2216
01:39:52.930 --> 01:39:55.850
This section of Van Nuys plagued by thieves targeting copper
2217
01:39:55.890 --> 01:40:00.029
wire also above ground. Block after block, ripped lines connecting
2218
01:40:00.069 --> 01:40:02.970
to streetlights left in the dark. The thieves didn't seem
2219
01:40:02.989 --> 01:40:03.880
worried about getting caught?
2220
01:40:03.989 --> 01:40:04.439
Oh, no, no.
2221
01:40:06.560 --> 01:40:07.819
AT & T.
2222
01:40:07.329 --> 01:40:11.689
Has crews from Northern California here trying to restore service.
2223
01:40:11.710 --> 01:40:13.289
Is that happening a lot?
2224
01:40:14.159 --> 01:40:14.520
Oh, yeah.
2225
01:40:14.699 --> 01:40:14.920
Yeah.
2226
01:40:15.300 --> 01:40:17.319
Across L.A., the numbers are staggering.
2227
01:40:17.460 --> 01:40:22.329
Roughly 32,000 streetlight repair requests now active, mostly tied to
2228
01:40:22.390 --> 01:40:25.949
copper theft. Mayor Karen Bass last week approved plans to
2229
01:40:25.989 --> 01:40:28.229
replace those lights with solar ones.
2230
01:40:28.670 --> 01:40:30.449
Like, what's the point of stealing that?
2231
01:40:30.689 --> 01:40:32.729
To make money so they go and sell it, but
2232
01:40:32.760 --> 01:40:36.220
it gets you guys without streetlights and Wi-Fi.
2233
01:40:37.239 --> 01:40:37.359
Oh.
2234
01:40:37.760 --> 01:40:39.460
Some unaware, not worried.
2235
01:40:39.279 --> 01:40:40.170
That the thieves on....
2236
01:40:42.100 --> 01:40:43.180
There's still a little more.
2237
01:40:43.260 --> 01:40:44.800
Their block haven't been caught.
2238
01:40:45.100 --> 01:40:46.159
I'm so angry.
2239
01:40:46.840 --> 01:40:49.579
While major portions of the neighborhood are now dark and
2240
01:40:49.659 --> 01:40:50.479
without internet.
2241
01:40:50.729 --> 01:40:52.750
It's annoying. It's frustrating.
2242
01:40:53.449 --> 01:40:55.189
They make the environment here.
2243
01:40:55.670 --> 01:40:57.909
I mean, it's not the prettiest, but they don't make
2244
01:40:57.989 --> 01:41:03.000
it any better for sure. She estimates that the crooks
2245
01:41:03.039 --> 01:41:05.600
were here about 50 minutes while it took police an
2246
01:41:05.680 --> 01:41:06.659
hour to get here.
2247
01:41:07.079 --> 01:41:09.479
So far, no arrests have been made.
2248
01:41:09.600 --> 01:41:12.260
We have no appetite for it. By the way, that's
2249
01:41:12.300 --> 01:41:15.699
Karen Bass's constituency. The people steal all the copper wire
2250
01:41:15.720 --> 01:41:20.130
are the ones that vote her into fucking office. All right, L.A.,
2251
01:41:20.310 --> 01:41:25.159
listen to me, L.A. I told everyone this. The first day,
2252
01:41:25.420 --> 01:41:29.399
and this is 30 years ago, the first time I
2253
01:41:29.460 --> 01:41:32.470
saw him putting barbed wire around the freeway signs, I said,
2254
01:41:32.520 --> 01:41:34.670
that's a problem. We've got to figure out where this
2255
01:41:34.710 --> 01:41:38.550
city's going. We're going the wrong direction. Stop gut check time.
2256
01:41:38.729 --> 01:41:40.250
If you've got to do this, you're going the wrong
2257
01:41:40.289 --> 01:41:44.149
direction as a city. We're only days away from people
2258
01:41:44.210 --> 01:41:46.850
stealing the barbed wire that they put around the sign.
2259
01:41:46.989 --> 01:41:47.189
Yeah.
2260
01:41:47.210 --> 01:41:52.520
They're stealing fucking dogs and minerals, everybody. Reverse course. Figure
2261
01:41:52.659 --> 01:41:55.399
out a different direction. I don't know what else to
2262
01:41:55.460 --> 01:41:57.779
tell you. It's funny to say. It's like, you know,
2263
01:41:57.819 --> 01:41:59.840
when Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are like, oh, he's like,
2264
01:41:59.880 --> 01:42:01.760
what are these people talking about? It's great out here.
2265
01:42:01.859 --> 01:42:03.720
No, it isn't. It's interesting.
2266
01:42:05.159 --> 01:42:07.819
No one's making this up. It's either catalytic converters.
2267
01:42:08.239 --> 01:42:08.479
Yeah.
2268
01:42:08.600 --> 01:42:10.529
And now we're going to have one of those storage
2269
01:42:10.649 --> 01:42:13.529
units filled with solar panels here in the next eight months.
2270
01:42:13.630 --> 01:42:18.189
That's right. All right. So you can go to– oh,
2271
01:42:18.390 --> 01:42:24.800
that's right. Remember Nithya Raman, who's running– She's in the lead?
2272
01:42:25.399 --> 01:42:27.439
Is she in the lead? Yeah, Nithya Raman is in
2273
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:32.100
the lead to be the next mayor. Socialist Nithya Raman
2274
01:42:32.560 --> 01:42:34.619
is going to lead to be the next mayor. She's
2275
01:42:34.659 --> 01:42:37.550
the one who was angry at Toyota for making it
2276
01:42:37.630 --> 01:42:40.229
so easy for them to steal the catalytic converter. So
2277
01:42:40.270 --> 01:42:43.890
I don't think she's going to be impactful if all
2278
01:42:43.949 --> 01:42:45.710
her attention is spent on Toyota.
2279
01:42:45.810 --> 01:42:46.149
Yeah.
2280
01:42:46.449 --> 01:42:47.960
Yeah. All right.
2281
01:42:48.380 --> 01:42:51.789
This Friday and Saturday, Salt Lake City, Utah. Wise Guys
2282
01:42:51.829 --> 01:42:54.130
