00:00:55.420 I've been singing

00:00:56.620 We'll be fine.

00:01:05.820 We'll be fine.

00:01:06.780 I'm here to do the greatest Theovan interview ever.

00:01:09.620 I'm joking.

00:01:10.120 Oh, damn.

00:01:11.900 Actually, it could be it.

00:01:13.320 I'm trying to think if we've had the greatest one.

00:01:15.380 We had an Amish kid

00:01:18.000 that was pretty great.

00:01:19.860 Oh, wow.

00:01:20.580 He's pure Amish, too.

00:01:22.580 He's like, every now and then,

00:01:23.540 I'll sneak off to the creek

00:01:24.720 and we hide a cell phone down there

00:01:26.240 and we'll listen to a little bit of Def Leppard.

00:01:30.600 That was one of the best things I ever heard.

00:01:32.900 A little bit of pour some sugar on me?

00:01:34.300 Yeah, yeah.

00:01:35.200 Fuck, yeah, dude.

00:01:36.020 And I don't even think they have sugar,

00:01:37.340 which is the craziest part.

00:01:38.780 So, just down there listening to songs about illegal ingredients.

00:01:42.640 That's all they're doing, dude.

00:01:46.000 Jason, thanks for hanging out, man.

00:01:47.780 Thanks for having me, buddy.

00:01:49.860 We met at the 50th, I think it was the 50th SNL.

00:01:54.140 Yep.

00:01:54.860 I just remember I was walking

00:01:56.140 and then this big, like, kind of,

00:01:58.820 I would say semi-beautiful hand just grabbed me.

00:02:02.020 This thing that definitely,

00:02:03.540 and immediately I felt like I hadn't been in the gym.

00:02:05.440 That was, like, my immediate feeling.

00:02:07.000 And then it just, like, pulled me into, like, this orbit.

00:02:09.420 And it was like, hey, man, nice to see you here.

00:02:13.000 And that was it, dude.

00:02:13.840 But it was awesome.

00:02:14.580 This is great to see you, man.

00:02:15.860 Yeah, it made my day.

00:02:17.000 You make people smile.

00:02:17.840 You make me smile.

00:02:18.620 So, I'm like, when you see that,

00:02:19.720 like, it was a bit of an overload there.

00:02:22.040 It was a lot.

00:02:22.440 And I feel like once you're talking,

00:02:24.000 yeah, like, when you're with Meryl Streep

00:02:26.020 and Robert De Niro's on one thing,

00:02:28.400 and then, you know, I freaked out when I saw Chevy Chase.

00:02:30.820 Yeah.

00:02:31.340 Like, this older lady's like,

00:02:34.540 come here, darling.

00:02:36.360 You're the Aquaman.

00:02:37.460 I was like, yeah.

00:02:38.620 And she's like, Chevy, get over here.

00:02:40.580 Chevy, get over here.

00:02:41.540 I'm like, oh, my gosh.

00:02:42.640 This is Chevy Chase's wife.

00:02:44.400 And then she's like, Bill, get over here.

00:02:47.020 And I'm.

00:02:47.680 Who's Bill?

00:02:48.720 Murray.

00:02:49.360 Oh, God.

00:02:50.260 Chevy Chase and Bill Murray.

00:02:51.660 I'm sandwiched between them.

00:02:53.480 And I'm just going, like,

00:02:55.140 this beautiful one brought this together.

00:02:57.100 Bill's like, who the fuck is this guy?

00:02:59.000 And she's like, and so was Chevy.

00:03:01.240 And he's like, that's the Aquaman.

00:03:03.040 Our grandchildren love him.

00:03:04.400 Oh, yeah.

00:03:05.340 But you just go like, it was, there it is.

00:03:07.360 Oh, that's cool.

00:03:08.940 See, in my mind, I was sandwiched.

00:03:10.920 Yeah.

00:03:11.320 But right there, I'm a little bit more of the bun.

00:03:13.840 Yeah, you seem like more of a bun.

00:03:15.480 Yeah.

00:03:16.160 You know?

00:03:16.820 Or like a nice rye or something.

00:03:18.500 A pumpernickel.

00:03:19.160 So, but we were, that was, it was just a, it was a crazy night, huh?

00:03:23.780 Yeah, that was a lot, man.

00:03:25.200 I met Hanson.

00:03:27.020 Hanson was there.

00:03:27.960 Yeah.

00:03:28.660 They look like adult Hanson kids or whatever.

00:03:31.020 Yeah, because what year are you born?

00:03:32.540 I'm born in 1980.

00:03:34.180 I'm 79.

00:03:35.220 Hell yeah.

00:03:35.480 There we go.

00:03:35.980 So we know what Hansons look like when they were bopping it out.

00:03:39.980 Yeah, we know the real Hansons.

00:03:41.140 You know what I'm saying?

00:03:41.600 Yeah, I just gave my son a crisscross, you know, cross colors that, you remember that

00:03:46.860 brand?

00:03:47.960 It was like, it was just this brand that I had when like crisscross came out and my son

00:03:52.100 didn't know who that was and it was a year, it was the, and was it the year you were born

00:03:56.340 maybe when it came out?

00:03:57.720 82?

00:03:58.520 Yeah, I think it was.

00:03:59.160 92?

00:04:00.000 I get crisscross, cross colors.

00:04:01.980 Anyways, I just gave it to my son and I was just dating myself, man.

00:04:05.940 But it was, it was a, it was a moment.

00:04:08.380 I've been unpacking my, uh, my old stuff and giving it to my son and he loves it because

00:04:13.340 all that stuff's cool again.

00:04:15.120 Yeah.

00:04:15.540 Oh, that's a good point.

00:04:16.400 Yeah.

00:04:16.500 Things come back around.

00:04:17.620 Yeah.

00:04:18.040 Uh, you grew up in Hawaii.

00:04:20.980 I was born in Hawaii and my parents got divorced when I was little and I moved to Iowa, but like,

00:04:26.060 you know, bridges in Madison County, Iowa, like dude, like Meryl Streep, bridges in Madison

00:04:30.200 County, boom, one of my favorite books, the book and the movie, it's identical.

00:04:33.560 It's like word for word.

00:04:35.660 Um, yeah, every, the, the, the, the movies,

00:04:38.200 the exact way of the book.

00:04:39.200 So not that that matters.

00:04:40.540 So I'm like graduated, you know, did you go to university of Iowa?

00:04:45.900 No, no.

00:04:46.740 I actually went to, we'd like to make fun of it.

00:04:48.760 University of Southern Ankeny.

00:04:50.160 I went to DMACC, Des Moines area community college, and then went to, it is DMACC.

00:04:56.840 And then I went off to get in-state tuition in Colorado.

00:04:59.740 And I went, I was living out in Colorado state and I was working with a trail crew out there

00:05:03.180 and working at Lee's Cyclery and Bazzetti's and all these different bus and tables and

00:05:07.900 shit, trying to get in-state tuition, trying to postpone college as much as possible.

00:05:12.820 And then trying to postpone it or stay in it.

00:05:14.340 Well, I was just trying to get in-state tuition so I could do wildlife biology there.

00:05:17.660 But I want, I went to school for, it's weird because when I was in Iowa, I did marine biology.

00:05:22.360 They have a place called central campus where all these different schools would go into

00:05:26.380 Des Moines and you would learn marine biology and I'd have like a shark tanks and I had

00:05:30.760 my own eel and you'd learn about all these different things.

00:05:33.680 And I always wanted to be a marine biologist and we'd spend our spring breaks down in the

00:05:36.880 keys.

00:05:37.400 So we get in a yellow bus, go all the way down to, from fucking Iowa, all the way down to

00:05:41.860 the keys.

00:05:42.520 That's so far.

00:05:43.380 Yeah, and we'd study with scientists, but I did that two years, get credit for college.

00:05:48.840 But I, and then I was going to go like, ah, over summertime, I was like, I'll go to Hawaii.

00:05:52.920 Since I'm Hawaiian, maybe I'll get a better deal going to college.

00:05:56.420 And a TV show came.

00:05:58.540 And I was just surfing with my family and a big, a big, pretty big surf family.

00:06:04.440 So we, and then a show came and I ended up getting it and it changed everything.

00:06:09.280 I was 19.

00:06:10.420 And you were working so, but they had the, oh my God.

00:06:13.380 That's him.

00:06:14.220 Yeah, dude.

00:06:15.520 Don't, don't, don't, don't.

00:06:17.360 Don't what?

00:06:18.280 Get some lotion out?

00:06:23.180 To rub on the picture.

00:06:25.660 Uh, have some respect guys.

00:06:29.580 Dude, that's wild that you got to live.

00:06:31.200 I was 19, man.

00:06:32.640 That was crazy.

00:06:33.320 My job before that was busting tables.

00:06:35.200 Yeah.

00:06:35.480 Working in a surf shop.

00:06:36.720 I bust tables, bro.

00:06:37.720 I was for one of the first bussers to ever use creatine in Arizona, south of Phoenix.

00:06:42.000 I was one of the best bus boys there was, I think, for probably about a two and a half

00:06:45.540 year period.

00:06:46.040 Is that where you went to Arizona?

00:06:47.440 I went to University of Arizona for one year and then I went to some other schools.

00:06:50.120 But, um, dude, I was, oh, I was so good at busting tables, man.

00:06:54.120 Yeah, well, I would take all the food because I worked at a really nice restaurant and we

00:06:59.360 were all, my buddies that lived together was a bunch of climbing dirt bags and I'd bring

00:07:03.200 this nice pasta home because, you know, if the, if the, if the, the couple didn't look

00:07:07.900 too sus and they left their stuff, you know, you just box that in and bring it home.

00:07:12.160 And so I always had like the best restaurants pasta.

00:07:15.900 Dude, I worked at a place called Dakota's Wine and Feed and the guy there was taught like

00:07:21.120 there was this perverted manager who would kind of teach us how to do like, he would

00:07:24.820 like kind of like oral sex on women, but just like in conversation, anyway, that guy was

00:07:30.340 a complete pervert, but I will tell you, not in person, not with a real woman, just he

00:07:33.540 would like tell us young kids, like how to do it and stuff.

00:07:35.820 And we didn't know what was going on, dude.

00:07:37.220 Like I remember when he would talk about it, all the pimples on my face would like explode

00:07:40.200 at once.

00:07:40.740 Um, but, um, anyway, that was beside the point, but they had very nice food there.

00:07:45.620 And I remember if I'd see a couple, if they use their knife, that to me was like, oh, they're

00:07:49.460 fancy.

00:07:50.060 I can eat off of their plate.

00:07:51.420 Yes.

00:07:51.900 So if the knife was dirty, I would definitely take a little bit of that, like some cured

00:07:55.080 ham or some specialty meats on there.

00:07:57.160 And I'd get a stack of like some like special sandwich that was made of all types of stuff.

00:08:01.300 Yeah, man.

00:08:02.140 It was nice.

00:08:03.300 That's back.

00:08:04.340 Feeding the homies.

00:08:05.340 Yeah.

00:08:05.880 And back then it's like when you're out of your mom's house, your first time out, you're like

00:08:08.920 orange juice was like champagne.

00:08:11.000 If someone had orange juice, I was like, oh my God, I haven't had orange juice and fucking

00:08:13.640 because I don't want to beer and fucking booze.

00:08:16.300 Yeah.

00:08:16.800 Right.

00:08:17.100 Milk.

00:08:17.460 Never saw it again.

00:08:18.600 You live mom's house.

00:08:19.600 I fuck milk.

00:08:20.260 And then it was basically water beer.

00:08:25.000 My dad still kind of had to pay child support.

00:08:27.080 So that was like that paid rent.

00:08:28.320 And I could, I could just save enough bus and tables where I could work just Thursday,

00:08:33.600 Friday, Saturday.

00:08:35.120 I go rock climbing and snowboard.

00:08:36.820 And so it'd be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, come back.

00:08:40.040 So I had like four, I had a little plan, you know?

00:08:42.180 And were you with like a certain group of friends from growing up or was it just like,

00:08:45.780 is it still like a core group or was it just guys?

00:08:47.560 Yeah, there's one guy.

00:08:48.580 I didn't have too many friends growing up.

00:08:50.180 And I, I mean, I had friends, but like the, like true buddies, they're, they're in my neighborhood,

00:08:55.320 but they stayed there.

00:08:56.580 There's one guy.

00:08:57.540 He is my best friend to this day.

00:09:00.760 Godfather, my kids, he went out to Colorado first.

00:09:02.800 So he was one year older and then I went there out there to be with him and he's my best.

00:09:07.040 Yeah.

00:09:07.200 He's my best bud.

00:09:07.920 So we, it was just us running, running the muck.

00:09:10.240 So much fun.

00:09:11.000 Colorado is so awesome.

00:09:12.080 It is.

00:09:12.460 It was good.

00:09:13.080 God, I love being out there.

00:09:14.380 Is that the altitude always gets me so much, dude.

00:09:17.320 I get affected pretty easily by the environment.

00:09:19.460 Um, it's gotta be hard for you to go from Nashville to here cause it gets dry.

00:09:23.680 Like I just came from New Zealand right now and last night I'm like, I felt sorry for

00:09:27.600 my lady cause I'm just like, up wheezing right out.

00:09:31.440 Like just shedding a skin in the bed.

00:09:34.280 I mean, it's summer down there.

00:09:35.380 Yeah.

00:09:35.900 You know what I mean?

00:09:36.360 Yeah.

00:09:37.860 Yeah.

00:09:38.180 Dude.

00:09:38.480 New Zealand is a dude.

00:09:39.780 I met people like, I'm like, what are you talking about?

00:09:44.160 You're not using any letters.

00:09:45.540 They have people there.

00:09:46.800 It's like, I think that's Australians, but yeah.

00:09:48.840 Oh, we went to New Zealand.

00:09:50.840 We had some shows down in Auckland and we met Pete is just like, we met guys who like,

00:09:58.580 it was like they had a sentence stuck in them.

00:10:00.420 They just couldn't get it out of them no matter what.

00:10:02.120 Like the people there that talk to us.

00:10:04.560 Anyway, it was just some of the craziest lingo I'd ever heard.

00:10:06.520 But one of the most beautiful places we went to, um, we got to meet Israel Adesanya down

00:10:11.680 there cause he lives there.

00:10:12.920 Yep.

00:10:13.240 Stylebender.

00:10:13.960 Yep.

00:10:14.320 And they were super nice to us whenever we went over there.

00:10:16.460 But we went to the beach one day and they said you can only be outside of the beach

00:10:19.680 for a certain amount of time because they don't have that much, um, marine layer or they

00:10:23.080 don't have the ozone.

00:10:24.420 Ozone layer.

00:10:25.200 You're fried.

00:10:26.460 Dude.

00:10:26.760 I was like, it's so beautiful, but you got to go back inside.

00:10:29.900 I know.

00:10:30.200 I never told me to go back inside, but I mean, yeah, if you're sitting out there, you're

00:10:32.820 going to feel it.

00:10:33.260 Like you just feel yourself cooking.

00:10:34.780 Yeah.

00:10:35.240 Like, yeah.

00:10:36.180 Yeah.

00:10:36.320 Well, at a certain point you should go in, I think.

00:10:38.280 Yeah.

00:10:38.660 You definitely should.

00:10:40.040 Or just stay out there and grill maybe.

00:10:41.580 Um, so you went to, you went from Des Moines Community College, DMACC.

00:10:46.940 Yep.

00:10:47.440 And then you ended up over in Colorado.

00:10:50.440 Yep.

00:10:50.860 Went to Colorado and then went to Hawaii to get to just to kind of be with my father, get

00:10:54.560 to know him better.

00:10:55.320 And was he cool?

00:10:56.660 My dad's great.

00:10:57.420 My dad's, he's, he's, he's, he's awesome.

00:10:59.660 It's just, um, I'd go there when I was young, like eight, nine, 10, you know, like basically

00:11:04.640 when I was young enough to comprehend it, bright enough to be with my mom.

00:11:08.980 And then I'd, I'd go until like high school years.

00:11:11.760 We had probably a bit of a falling out.

00:11:13.580 So I didn't go too much and maybe my sophomore, junior, senior year.

00:11:16.860 So once I, I was like, I'm going to go back, be with dad, bury the hatchet and, uh, see

00:11:21.940 if I can get into college over there.

00:11:23.900 And, um, and then, like I said, show came and changed my life and then kind of tried

00:11:28.640 to, you know, tell my mom, like, I'm on this show.

00:11:32.760 And she's like, what are you talking about?

00:11:34.380 You know, like my mom's in the same house I was raised in.

00:11:37.580 Wow.

00:11:37.900 So I was like, what are you doing?

00:11:39.660 Are you doing something with Satan?

00:11:41.100 I know.

00:11:41.580 She's like, you're on Baywatch Hawaii.

00:11:42.880 I was like, mom, I'm like, it's, it's not what you think.

00:11:45.120 It's like a whole different spin on it.

00:11:47.120 They're in Hawaii.

00:11:47.700 It's not.

00:11:48.100 And she's like, what?

00:11:49.240 It's a whole different spin.

00:11:50.440 They're in Hawaii.

00:11:50.960 Yeah, I know.

00:11:51.340 I mean, the Hasselhoff wasn't really on anymore, but they're trying to change it up.

00:11:54.920 So anyways.

00:11:58.060 Dang.

00:11:59.340 And then I spent the, you know, the next 30 years digging myself out of that hole.

00:12:03.100 Yeah.

00:12:04.860 Cheers to that.

00:12:05.780 And here we are now.

00:12:06.480 And so, so your mom is a white woman and your, your father is more Islander.

00:12:11.640 My dad's Hawaiian.

00:12:12.700 Yeah.

00:12:12.940 And my mom is basically German Irish.

00:12:16.480 Is there a lot of beef between Hawaiians in Hawaii of like the, are there different kind

00:12:20.700 of sects of like SECTS of Hawaiians, like different kind of like, or is it, if you're a Hawaiian,

00:12:26.800 you're Hawaiian?

00:12:27.260 I mean, that's a good question.

00:12:30.780 I wouldn't say it's like sex.

00:12:34.720 Definitely.

00:12:35.240 You know, back in the day, there was different islands were different Kings until it was united

00:12:40.380 by Kamehameha, but not everyone loves Kamehameha.

00:12:43.540 You could have been with Kahikile.

00:12:44.800 You could have been different.

00:12:46.060 You could have been with different islands and that obviously to unite them, your family

00:12:49.720 could have been murdered.

00:12:50.340 So I don't, I don't think everyone sees eye to eye, but having said that, like we are,

00:12:54.500 you know, since we are a part of America now, like I think all those generations, you know,

00:12:58.960 our, our culture and our language was completely removed from us.

00:13:01.900 Like most indigenous races and you know, really trying to get it back.

00:13:06.640 Like, and I don't necessarily think there's like sex to it.

00:13:11.520 Right.

00:13:12.000 Yeah.

00:13:12.180 It's not like, so people aren't like that tribal.

00:13:15.720 I mean, the tribal about being Hawaiian.

00:13:17.100 I'll tell you what, not as much as like, if you were to compare it to New Zealand where

00:13:20.200 there's, I don't, don't quote me, but there's 200 plus different iwis, different tribes in

00:13:26.700 my eyes.

00:13:27.260 Oh yeah.

00:13:27.600 I met some iwis over there.

00:13:28.700 Yeah.

00:13:28.780 Whereas the South Island, there's one like Naitahu's just one tribe on the South Island.

00:13:33.160 The North Island has many.

00:13:34.240 So it definitely has to go through a lot more if you're trying to agree on certain

00:13:39.480 things, like it's got to go through more people.

00:13:41.020 So that's what you mean.

00:13:41.580 Yeah.

00:13:41.680 Got it.

00:13:42.360 And did your dad have a, like, like, is he like very, a very Hawaiian kind of guy?

00:13:47.040 Very much so.

00:13:47.760 Yeah.

00:13:48.120 I mean, in the sense of like.

00:13:49.820 Cause there's so much pride in that culture.

00:13:51.320 It's such a unique culture.

00:13:52.740 Yeah.

00:13:52.920 I come from the West side of Oahu.

00:13:54.360 My dad lives in Nanakuli.

00:13:55.400 Most of my family's like Nanakuli, Waianae, and then Makaha.

00:13:59.260 And that whole West side is called Hawaiian homestead land.

00:14:02.220 So it's like our reservation kind of isque kind of thing.

00:14:06.480 And so, but my father's very much a waterman.

00:14:11.280 And in that sense.

00:14:12.380 What does that mean?

00:14:12.760 He likes to be out in the water?

00:14:14.260 Yeah.

00:14:14.880 Or is it a specific job?

00:14:16.000 Outriggers, paddling, surfing.

00:14:18.140 He was a coach.

00:14:19.040 And I mean, just any, a waterman as in knowledge of sailing, knowledge of.

00:14:23.560 Anything out there.

00:14:24.420 Yeah.

00:14:24.560 And you're Aquaman, which is crazy.

00:14:26.040 Which is crazy.

00:14:27.360 That's crazy.

00:14:29.220 It is.

00:14:29.640 And I've always wanted to.

00:14:30.640 My, my, my, my family's very much.

00:14:33.800 Some of the last living legends of, of surfing or of watermen is like my great uncle's Buffalo

00:14:39.960 Keolana.

00:14:41.260 Bring him up.

00:14:42.040 See if we can get a gander at him.

00:14:43.400 Buffalo Keolana.

00:14:44.380 And Brian Keolana is an amazing waterman too.

00:14:47.200 Who's my, who's my cousin.

00:14:48.880 And Rusty's a four time world champion.

00:14:51.380 So I just come from a very, the Keolanas.

00:14:53.320 Oh, wow.

00:14:54.100 That's Uncle Buff.

00:14:55.780 Hell yeah, dude.

00:14:57.040 Beautiful Hawaiian man, yeah.

00:14:58.420 Yeah.

00:14:58.700 I think I've seen him on the pictures of the bronzer at the tanning salon as well.

00:15:02.320 I think.

00:15:03.020 I'll just say, I'll just say this.

00:15:04.380 They're using his name, image, and likeness over there.

00:15:06.660 Okay.

00:15:06.920 It's Suntan City.

00:15:08.720 I'll say that fast.

00:15:10.180 Dude, that's awesome, bro.

00:15:11.860 Yeah.

00:15:11.880 I always wanted to, yeah, be with him.

00:15:13.620 But that's, that's kind of, that's the family.

00:15:16.960 And he still lives over there?

00:15:18.080 He does.

00:15:18.780 Yeah.

00:15:19.360 Wow.

00:15:20.160 Oh, that's beautiful, man.

00:15:21.400 Yeah.

00:15:21.560 I just want to do Hawaiians feel like, it seems to me like Hawaiians always feel like

00:15:26.500 a responsibility to uphold their culture kind of, or that they're Hawaiian.

00:15:31.020 Like they, like there just seems to be like a certain like level of respect that they carry

00:15:35.080 about themselves with that.

00:15:36.500 I think that's true.

00:15:37.660 I think there's a lot of things that have happened to our, to our people that have, it's

00:15:42.520 been very challenging in what's happened and, and, and, and getting our identity back in

00:15:49.260 our culture, back in our language back.

00:15:51.300 So there's, I'm sure there's a lot of, there's a lot of things.

00:15:55.080 Yeah.

00:15:55.560 It's a lot of, a lot of terror and trauma that's happened to the Hawaiian islands.

00:15:59.500 Dang.

00:16:00.400 There's a lot.

00:16:00.940 Yeah.

00:16:01.360 I think when you have something beautiful, people want it, you know?

00:16:04.360 Yeah.

00:16:04.960 Yeah, absolutely.

00:16:06.340 It's so nice over there, dude.

00:16:08.160 I even, dude, I even remember one time I was drowning over there and I remember being

00:16:12.480 like, where else am I going to drown?

00:16:15.660 Like it was so nice.

00:16:16.680 I remember looking back at the shoreline, literally I was snorkeling and I wasn't doing

00:16:20.400 well.

00:16:21.040 I was losing.

00:16:22.620 And, um, I remember looking back at the shoreline and I thought I was going to drown

00:16:25.500 and I was like, what, dude, where else are you going to drown?

00:16:28.960 You know, you're going to drown in a Hampton Inn pool somewhere like, you know, outside

00:16:32.800 of Jacksonville or something.

00:16:33.960 No, dude, this is where you do it, you know?

00:16:36.180 And so there was almost this crazy moment of peace with just how beautiful it was there.

00:16:40.040 You know, it's a really special place.

00:16:41.660 Where were you at when you were drowning, man?

00:16:43.520 I was off of, I was in Maui.

00:16:45.600 Was there waves?

00:16:46.880 Was it just because of deep water?

00:16:48.240 There were waves, but it was like.

00:16:49.260 You just got a little too carried away and you got too far out maybe?

00:16:52.620 Oh yeah.

00:16:53.020 I went snorkeling and it was by myself and bad idea, huh?

00:16:57.460 Yeah.

00:16:57.760 It's bad to do anything.

00:16:58.700 Yeah.

00:16:58.880 Go in the water and do that by yourself.

00:17:00.720 Yeah.

00:17:01.420 And that's what I realized.

00:17:02.340 It was fun.

00:17:02.900 It was kind of fun.

00:17:04.620 And I remember I got out there a little bit and I was like, oh man.

00:17:07.880 And then the, and then I would see the fish, but then the water would go down and then

00:17:10.860 I would just be like, almost like, like trying to like not get on the coral or whatever,

00:17:14.340 like being like that.

00:17:15.160 Yeah.

00:17:15.540 And then we'll go back.

00:17:16.380 It was just like, so it just got super scary.

00:17:18.580 And then I was further and further out and I started getting really, really spooked.

00:17:21.780 Yeah.

00:17:21.920 Well, there's just different rips too.

00:17:23.520 Yeah.

00:17:23.940 Yeah.

00:17:24.340 Yeah.

00:17:24.600 I caught a, I caught a bad rip.

00:17:26.820 I think, uh, yeah.

00:17:28.180 Every surfer, you know, everyone drowns.

00:17:30.980 Have you ever been at a drowning before out there?

00:17:32.420 Very much so.

00:17:33.080 No way.

00:17:34.460 Yeah.

00:17:34.820 I've drowned.

00:17:35.720 And, uh, it's, it's, I mean, it's a beautiful teacher, man.

00:17:39.260 The oceans of, I mean, she's the ultimate teacher.

00:17:41.240 So it sucks.

00:17:43.240 Driving sucks.

00:17:44.240 Yeah.

00:17:44.660 No way about it.

00:17:45.480 Yeah.

00:17:46.000 Yeah.

00:17:46.220 Yeah.

00:17:46.320 RIP, man.

00:17:47.140 You just see your slow death.

00:17:48.560 It sucks.

00:17:49.020 Everything flashes in and you can't move your arms anymore and you're going down and can't

00:17:52.840 breathe.

00:17:53.500 That's when I, I used to smoke a lot.

00:17:55.800 I smoke cigars still, but it took me a while to get back to it.

00:17:58.040 But I, uh, I used to smoke like two packs a day.

00:18:00.360 I was pretty, just love, love, love, like roll.

00:18:03.420 And then I tried to slow down.

00:18:04.500 I'd be like, roll a pouch.

00:18:05.620 And then I'd burn a pouch in a day.

00:18:07.420 Just, just roll them yourself.

00:18:09.440 I just loved tobacco and damn, I can't believe I was a damn smoker.

00:18:13.940 That's inspiring.

00:18:15.000 Actually, dude, you can do anything people.

00:18:17.560 And that was the hard one to quit.

00:18:18.800 I mean, that's a fair share of shit, but it's like, um, I think smoking was, um, I couldn't

00:18:24.480 stop from my, you know, from my family.

00:18:27.280 And then when I drowned and I, you know, someone took my breath, I came out of that water and

00:18:33.540 that thing died.

00:18:34.500 And I mean, I tried really hard to stop many times and I came out and if I tried to smoke,

00:18:38.880 I'm going to vomit.

00:18:39.540 Like I, it might, that part of me just died because it took my breath and I had to go

00:18:44.880 through it.

00:18:45.640 And, and then the reason I didn't, I got saved is I actually hit the outer reef.

00:18:51.280 Cause I was over a half mile offshore.

00:18:54.660 It's just, there's two reefs.

00:18:56.060 It's always on the outer reef of Maui and it was doing, you know, some, some coast peddling

00:19:00.920 and I hit the, I hit the reef and it just touched my toe.

00:19:05.200 And, and, uh, I just bubbled down, grabbed the reef and just jumped up.

00:19:08.760 And then got hit another wave and I just held onto the reef and waited.

00:19:12.860 I was out there for a while.

00:19:14.460 Dang.

00:19:14.940 Who rescued you?

00:19:16.080 I was with Laird.

00:19:17.120 I was out surfing with Laird and, um.

00:19:19.720 I saw him once at a Whole Foods.

00:19:21.660 Yeah.

00:19:22.500 It sounds on point.

00:19:24.000 Is that on brand?

00:19:25.020 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:19:26.580 But, uh, yeah.

00:19:27.360 And, um, uh, Dave Kalama and my friend Joe Flanagan.

00:19:30.900 Yeah.

00:19:31.140 But it was, uh, my leash snapped and I was stuck out in the middle of the ocean.

00:19:33.680 And so, and it was just very windy and took the board and it was gone.

00:19:36.280 So.

00:19:36.400 And smoking was done for you.

00:19:38.260 Yeah.

00:19:38.800 Never, never, never smoked again.

00:19:42.340 Damn.

00:19:42.880 Look at you guys over here.

00:19:43.920 Just type quick and get it up.

00:19:46.080 Boom, boom, boom.

00:19:47.960 Um, yeah.

00:19:49.180 I, I, I was looking at your new film.

00:19:51.500 It's called The Wrecking Crew.

00:19:52.780 I'm excited for you to see it.

00:19:55.040 It's funny.

00:19:55.520 I saw it.

00:19:56.080 Oh, you did?

00:19:56.600 Yeah.

00:19:57.220 Oh, thank you.

00:19:58.220 I've seen it, dude.

00:19:58.760 I know the premiere was last night.

00:19:59.860 So, sorry, I missed that.

00:20:00.900 But, uh, no, I saw it on my computer.

00:20:03.000 They sent me a screener of it.

00:20:04.400 Um, yeah, dude, it's great.

00:20:05.740 And it's so beautiful.

00:20:06.580 It's just, it's so nice to be able to just, you feel like you're in Hawaii for a while.

00:20:11.140 Yeah.

00:20:11.420 Yeah, you know, it's just the movies we grew up with, right?

00:20:13.640 Lethal Weapon, 48 Hours, all these things, buddy cop movies.

00:20:16.920 Yeah.

00:20:17.500 I did a TV show with David Batista.

00:20:20.400 He played my brother in C on Apple.

00:20:22.060 Oh, yeah.

00:20:22.540 And he plays your brother in this, go on.

00:20:24.060 Sorry.

00:20:24.240 Yeah, yeah.

00:20:24.560 And we just were really, got really close.

00:20:26.840 And it's like, you know, in this business, when you meet somebody you really like, you're

00:20:29.480 like, oh, we should, in the next one, it'd be fun to do a comedy instead of covered in

00:20:33.140 blood and us beating each other.

00:20:34.700 And, uh, it was, uh, so we, I had this, this pitch to him and, um, I had it now it's been

00:20:43.060 for two decades.

00:20:43.740 It's one of the first things I ever wrote as a pitch packet and told him.

00:20:47.280 And then the next day he just posted it and put it out there and went viral.

00:20:51.200 And, uh, what about you guys doing it together?

00:20:53.920 Yeah.

00:20:54.280 And then attach David Leach to it.

00:20:55.720 And like, and basically like, this is what we're doing.

00:20:57.840 Do you like it?

00:20:58.300 And everyone freaked out.

00:20:59.800 And my agents call me going like, what are we doing?

00:21:01.700 And like the next morning I'm like, Dave, I didn't even know that Dave would do that.

00:21:04.900 And Dave just like, just did it.

00:21:07.300 I'm like going like, yeah, me and you were doing, you know, twins.

00:21:10.200 You know what I mean?

00:21:11.120 It's just, they just put it out there and, uh, fraternal twins too.

00:21:15.000 Yeah.

00:21:15.680 And people were like, I don't know.

00:21:17.180 I don't know.

00:21:18.140 People are like, this was like before and after.

00:21:20.420 Yeah.

00:21:21.580 And so, uh, anyways, in our, in our showrunner, Jonathan Trapper ended up writing it and yeah,

00:21:26.740 it's just a, it's just a fun movie that we want to, I want to do laugh a little more

00:21:31.760 and it'll make you, you know, make you cry working out to family trauma, you know, that

00:21:35.840 kind of stuff.

00:21:36.300 Yeah.

00:21:36.680 It's never too late.

00:21:37.700 Yeah.

00:21:38.200 Yeah.

00:21:38.520 There's some sweet stuff in it.

00:21:39.580 It's the, the action is really great.

00:21:40.960 I loved it.

00:21:41.460 I mean, it's just, it's a nice, easy, it's an easy movie to watch and it's just super enjoyable

00:21:44.700 and it's a beautifully shot.

00:21:45.880 It's just like, and it's just in Hawaii.

00:21:47.700 You're just like, oh, if you can't afford to take your wife to Hawaii, take her to see

00:21:53.080 this movie.

00:21:53.660 That's the best pitch.

00:21:55.940 It's not bad.

00:21:57.000 She spent too much money this weekend.

00:22:00.200 Can't quite take her on vacation.

00:22:02.200 The wrecking crew.

00:22:03.320 You're welcome.

00:22:04.020 Look.

00:22:04.440 Jason Moa.

00:22:05.100 Thanks bro.

00:22:05.700 Just put a little cocoa butter on her arms and take her to see the wrecking crew.

00:22:09.800 It's this, tell her it's the same thing.

00:22:11.700 Okay.

00:22:12.700 You got to tell her it's the same thing, man.

00:22:15.720 Was there ever a movie role where you liked it kind of so much or the environment that

00:22:19.680 you were at, you liked so much that you're like, I wish I could stay here.

00:22:22.740 I wish this was my life kind of.

00:22:25.760 That's interesting question.

00:22:27.940 Where you just want to stay in that time period or in that place.

00:22:31.000 Yeah.

00:22:31.620 Or even as that person even.

00:22:33.000 I don't think I've, I, you know, I did this show chief of war that came out last year and

00:22:42.340 I think it was really cool because it's, it's all about, uh, it's all about, uh, it's all

00:22:46.920 about Hawaii.

00:22:47.640 Yeah.

00:22:47.960 It's like when they're uniting the kingdoms, it would have been really beautiful to be

00:22:51.440 in Hawaii before the white man arrived and just kind of see that time and place and, you

00:22:56.220 know, see what our people are like, our ancestors.

00:22:58.480 It was so special to make that show and cause you know, you grow up in Iowa and you watch

00:23:05.380 your thing like last, the Mohicans and, and, and Braveheart and you see all these things

00:23:08.940 like, Oh, I would love to see my cold trip.

00:23:10.760 They watch it.

00:23:11.240 I love samurai movies or native American movies.

00:23:13.820 And all we had was paintings.

00:23:16.160 You know, my grandparents, they've never seen a movie with us wearing all the regalia and

00:23:20.820 like, and going into the big battles with no metal.

00:23:23.560 So it's fish.

00:23:25.160 I mean, it's just brutal battles to the next level before they had, I can shark teeth did

00:23:31.800 like you're ripping each other apart.

00:23:33.500 So, um, just imagining that or seeing a movie on that scale, it took me a long time to make

00:23:39.940 that move, that show because you know, Oh yeah, that's beautiful.

00:23:44.300 And also as a gay Mardi Gras vibe as well, I'll say that, but that's outside and that

00:23:49.040 that's, it's just a joke.

00:23:50.000 I think it's very beautiful of these that you get to even envision something like this.

00:23:54.680 That's crazy, dude.

00:23:56.740 Oh man.

00:23:57.780 It's crazy to even get to see moments like that.

00:24:00.100 Like even just like on a movie set or something like that, it must be so bizarre to see moments

00:24:04.400 like that.

00:24:04.960 Have you seen this?

00:24:05.720 I mean, you should see like just the trailers or something, you know, when you, you know,

00:24:09.140 we're in some spare time.

00:24:11.300 It's, it's pretty, it's pretty wild.

00:24:13.000 The, the, the, the fight scenes in this are pretty wild.

00:24:15.300 Yeah.

00:24:15.980 That's amazing.

00:24:16.840 Yeah.

00:24:17.020 Anyway, so that was a, that was the first thing I ever created.

00:24:20.220 So I was a co-creator and produced it, co-wrote it and directed like the finale and started

00:24:27.340 it.

00:24:27.560 So that was like my big, that's fine.

00:24:29.620 That's my little love letter.

00:24:30.820 Yeah.

00:24:30.960 It's my baby.

00:24:31.540 They're my people.

00:24:32.280 So that's beautiful, dude.

00:24:34.020 And was it, was it something that was that special to your dad or special to like some

00:24:37.500 of your friends and family from home?

00:24:38.580 I think everyone, because you have to, uh, all the people I was, when I was 19, I hired

00:24:43.580 on Baywatch to like makeup artists to craft services to your drivers.

00:24:47.780 They knew me when I was 19.

00:24:49.080 I'm coming back at 45 at the time, 44 and coming back and making something like doing

00:24:55.260 Baywatch was just kind of shit.

00:24:56.740 And then coming back and doing something that's about our people.

00:24:59.440 Yeah.

00:24:59.880 It was a real big honor, man, for sure.

00:25:01.960 It's like, I mean, that's my ultimate goal.

00:25:03.800 I'm kind of done now.

00:25:04.720 Yeah.

00:25:05.120 I'm just going to do fun, fun shit.

00:25:07.340 And I want to do comedy.

00:25:08.260 Like we're going to do a Minecraft with Jack Black again.

00:25:11.100 Oh, nice.

00:25:12.120 Excited to do that.

00:25:13.520 Thanks, buddy.

00:25:14.860 Sorry about that.

00:25:15.720 You're good, man.

00:25:17.220 Um, when you were doing that show, did you go to parts of the island and learn stuff about

00:25:22.740 Hawaii that you didn't know before?

00:25:24.980 Yes.

00:25:25.680 Uh, yes.

00:25:26.440 But also like got to go and just scout and go to places.

00:25:29.800 I've never been to meet uncles and aunties and people who are just know so much about

00:25:34.360 our culture.

00:25:34.960 Like we had to, yes, had to learn, um, you know, we had to do it.

00:25:39.160 We didn't know Lelo Hawaii.

00:25:40.420 So you didn't wear a Lelo Hawaii.

00:25:42.880 So we did it in our, in our, in our native language.

00:25:45.320 Yeah.

00:25:46.260 So all the other characters in here, I'd say half of the cast, it's all Polynesia.

00:25:50.740 So you got to understand like there's, there's, there's Maori, New Zealand, there's Samoan,

00:25:56.980 there's, there's Tongan, there's, uh, there might've been some Haitian, but like all of

00:26:02.220 us and, and, and, and Kanaka Maori, which is us, all these are people who had different

00:26:07.640 their own languages.

00:26:09.160 They had to learn this ancient language.

00:26:11.900 So like everyone in there doing that is like, it's hard.

00:26:14.700 It was the hardest for me, but, um, I thought it would have been a lot easier, but it was,

00:26:18.660 it was very challenging for me.

00:26:20.740 Yeah.

00:26:20.820 The Tongans are tough, huh?

00:26:23.180 Samoans and Tongans aren't.

00:26:24.300 Yeah.

00:26:24.920 They're all tough.

00:26:26.360 Who's the toughest one now?

00:26:28.400 Um, I mean, I, I wouldn't fuck with the Tongan.

00:26:31.340 Bring up a Tongan.

00:26:32.140 I wouldn't fuck with a Samoan.

00:26:34.000 It's like, I'm good.

00:26:35.880 Pull up a pair of Tongans.

00:26:36.960 I heard you should never have just one.

00:26:38.780 I mean, look at that guy over there.

00:26:40.020 The, I mean, yeah, there you go.

00:26:42.520 Click on that one.

00:26:43.940 That guy on the right.

00:26:44.700 Oh my God.

00:26:46.140 That guy is doing something different, huh?

00:26:50.380 You know what?

00:26:50.900 We're all law.

00:26:51.740 So it's, it's nice.

00:26:52.620 We don't have to fuck.

00:26:53.540 I don't have to get in the fight with the Tongan.

00:26:55.420 Yeah.

00:26:55.740 No, I'm never gonna, but that's why.

00:26:58.740 Polynesians in general, man.

00:26:59.920 They're just like, Oh, it's such a different breed.

00:27:02.140 Dude, you know who I like?

00:27:03.900 Filipinos.

00:27:06.220 They're kind of like the comfortable Polynesians, you know?

00:27:08.680 There you go.

00:27:09.360 Yeah.

00:27:09.740 And they're the smiling people, you know?

00:27:11.380 They are.

00:27:12.320 And they're the last people that most people see before they die because a lot of them work

00:27:15.860 in hospice care, which is crazy.

00:27:18.060 When you think about that, imagine you're laying there and you open up a little and it's

00:27:25.320 just some Filipinos, dude.

00:27:28.060 And they're just singing something nice to you.

00:27:30.060 Dude, I mean, it sounds nice.

00:27:33.080 That's a portable Hawaii, dude.

00:27:34.640 I just hope my kids are there and they're looking after me, but I'm gonna put that shit

00:27:39.020 on them.

00:27:39.740 You put me in a home, I'm gonna haunt your ass.

00:27:42.640 I'm gonna fucking haunt your ass.

00:27:44.080 You put me in a home.

00:27:45.060 Dude, I'm gonna have my fans break me out.

00:27:47.400 You think you'd be a good ghost though, dude?

00:27:49.080 There's another script right there.

00:27:50.140 Me and you old, we'll just get all, do all the old makeup.

00:27:52.360 Yeah.

00:27:52.800 Yeah.

00:27:53.380 Just us and our dying ages in a nursing home.

00:27:55.920 Yeah.

00:27:56.280 Our fans break us out.

00:27:58.080 And they break us out and then what?

00:27:59.220 I don't know.

00:28:00.320 Yeah.

00:28:00.980 We go to a Comic-Con for like the old time days.

00:28:03.780 Yeah.

00:28:04.420 And you interview them all.

00:28:05.520 Yeah.

00:28:08.480 We do like the hangover.

00:28:09.820 We just relive all the good times.

00:28:11.980 Yeah.

00:28:12.380 It sounds just like the hangover.

00:28:14.940 At least we'll go see it, man.

00:28:16.640 It's just time that we all know that PrizePix is America's number one sports picks app and

00:28:24.020 the best place to win cash while watching sports.

00:28:27.620 The app is really easy to use.

00:28:29.860 That's what I love.

00:28:30.980 Just pick more or less on two plus players and lock your picks in.

00:28:35.940 That's it.

00:28:36.780 That's my favorite thing.

00:28:37.980 It's just simple.

00:28:38.780 You pick more or less and it's specific.

00:28:40.880 Now you got your guys in the game.

00:28:43.440 And right here's my lineup for the big game.

00:28:46.740 Tell me if you want.

00:28:47.880 Look, I don't know what I'm doing, but you can even follow me on PrizePix at the Ovan.

00:28:53.820 And on top of picking lineups, you can now pick teams on PrizePix.

00:28:58.220 Pick the winner, total, and spread on the big game.

00:29:01.820 Team picks are available in 30 states, including California, Texas, and Florida.

00:29:08.380 Boy, God, where's the cops?

00:29:11.040 And right here is who I'm going with to win the big game next Sunday.

00:29:16.520 PrizePix.

00:29:17.100 It's good to be right.

00:29:18.480 Play responsibly.

00:29:19.800 PrizePix offers DFS and free-to-play $50 provided as PrizePix DFS lineups.

00:29:23.360 Must spend $5 of real money on PrizePix before receiving bonus lineups.

00:29:26.160 PrizePix predict is a registered FCM offering, team picks, and culture picks as event contracts.

00:29:30.800 Both involve significant risk, not for all.

00:29:32.780 Must be 18 and over.

00:29:33.820 And for event contracts via U.S. resident, restrictions apply.

00:29:36.240 Void where prohibited.

00:29:37.340 Use responsibly for help.

00:29:38.560 Call 1-800-426-2537 or visit www.ncpgambling.org.

00:29:43.320 You know, to me, the future of finances feels strange.

00:29:47.300 That's why I like to cover my bases.

00:29:50.000 And when I want to add more Bitcoin, MoonPay is usually the first app I reach for.

00:29:55.880 You don't need to buy a full coin.

00:29:57.980 And the whole process is clean, simple, and easy to understand.

00:30:01.860 MoonPay has become a major partner of the show, and I've actually chosen to accept my compensation

00:30:08.480 from them in Bitcoin.

00:30:11.040 The Bitcoin lives in my personal MoonPay wallet, and it's fully in my control, control de moi.

00:30:18.740 No one else has access to it.

00:30:20.460 With the U.S. dollar constantly moving up and down, this felt like a smart way for me to diversify a bit

00:30:27.460 and potentially get more long-term value out of the partnership.

00:30:31.820 Just keep in mind, even though MoonPay makes it easy to buy crypto,

00:30:35.880 you should always do your own research and understand what you're getting into.

00:30:39.560 Crypto can be volatile, and there's always the possibility of losing money.

00:30:44.180 MoonPay is a tool to facilitate your transactions, not a source of financial advice.

00:30:49.000 Trade responsibly.

00:30:50.000 If you're running a business on a clunky old phone system, then you know that isn't really good.

00:30:57.260 It's like competing with one hand tied behind your back,

00:31:00.180 and every time you miss a call, that's money left on the table.

00:31:05.540 Thankfully, there's Quo, formerly Open Phone.

00:31:09.680 It's the modern alternative built to help you work smarter,

00:32:01.160 Me and David Spade just made a movie, actually,

00:32:03.280 that's going to come out in like two months.

00:32:04.440 Shut up.

00:32:05.300 Yeah, we wrote it, funded it, everything.

00:32:07.080 I love David Spade.

00:32:08.140 Oh, he's the best, dude.

00:32:09.060 Yeah.

00:32:09.400 So I'm excited about that.

00:32:10.960 Tommy Boy, one of my favorites.

00:32:12.440 Oh, that was one of the best ever.

00:32:13.820 Was there a-

00:32:16.200 That's just an old-time buddy, or you just were like, yeah?

00:32:18.720 He and I became friends like four years ago, five years ago,

00:32:20.960 and we became really close friends.

00:32:22.300 And then we started, we had kind of an idea,

00:32:26.320 and when he started writing it, it took like a year.

00:32:28.200 And then we decided to just self-fund it.

00:32:30.620 And it was like a $4 million budget, I think.

00:32:32.520 And then we got, I think we got one investor.

00:32:35.180 And yeah, and we made it.

00:32:37.380 We shot it in like 23 days.

00:32:39.120 Wonderful.

00:32:39.540 What's this called?

00:32:40.200 It was exciting.

00:32:40.680 It's called Busboys.

00:32:41.380 It's about two guys who aren't doing that good.

00:32:44.740 And one of them loses his girlfriend to a waiter at a restaurant.

00:32:48.620 And so we figure if we can become waiters, then everything will be great.

00:32:53.120 That's why you're still going to be the busboy.

00:32:54.860 You're talking about like what we were talking about.

00:32:56.560 Oh, I channeled.

00:32:57.360 Like professional busboys.

00:32:57.980 Yeah.

00:32:58.640 Yeah.

00:32:58.960 Yeah.

00:32:59.520 I channeled.

00:33:00.100 This wasn't, yeah.

00:33:00.800 People are like, this is just whimsical.

00:33:02.040 What are you guys doing?

00:33:02.780 No, this is in me, bitch.

00:33:04.500 You feel me?

00:33:05.620 So yeah, I definitely channeled that.

00:33:07.520 And David was a busboy too in Arizona as well when he was growing up.

00:33:10.640 They wouldn't make me a waiter.

00:33:11.980 That was my last job.

00:33:13.120 Yeah.

00:33:13.520 I was a busboy at two places.

00:33:15.160 I could see that.

00:33:15.920 I think I.

00:33:16.580 They wouldn't let me.

00:33:17.260 They were trying to hold me down.

00:33:18.660 Yeah.

00:33:18.960 Oh yeah.

00:33:19.340 Yeah.

00:33:19.760 Dude, there's a glass ceiling.

00:33:21.000 Yeah.

00:33:22.220 I never made a waiter.

00:33:23.540 Yeah.

00:33:23.760 It's everywhere.

00:33:24.520 Fuck waiters.

00:33:25.660 Busboys are dope, dude.

00:33:27.220 Busboys are dope.

00:33:28.320 Busboys are dope.

00:33:29.060 They're always the coolest.

00:33:29.740 They're going to have the drugs.

00:33:30.380 They're going to have all.

00:33:30.760 They're going to know where the shit's at.

00:33:31.860 They're going to have the drugs.

00:33:32.460 They're going to have the bread.

00:33:33.180 They're going to have the waitresses.

00:33:33.920 You know what I mean?

00:33:34.240 Like busboys are dope.

00:33:35.220 Yeah.

00:33:35.400 Who are you going to get extra butter?

00:33:36.160 They're in with the dishwasher.

00:33:37.160 Like, you know what I mean?

00:33:38.040 Yeah.

00:33:38.300 Who's got extra butter?

00:33:40.440 The busboys do.

00:33:41.540 Yeah, for sure.

00:33:42.260 I love salt and pepper.

00:33:43.360 Guess who's got that?

00:33:44.260 Yeah.

00:33:44.820 Let's go see your waiter do that.

00:33:46.020 No, they're all fucking making more money than you.

00:33:47.960 Yeah.

00:33:48.200 They're off counting.

00:33:48.920 They're usually counting their money somewhere.

00:33:50.720 Not sharing their tips is what they're not doing.

00:33:51.760 Tight shit, homie.

00:33:53.000 That's what they're doing, dude.

00:33:54.380 And who's got the extra salt?

00:33:55.860 You know what?

00:33:56.340 I'm going to tip my waitress less and I'm going to slip my busboy more.

00:33:59.600 I haven't been doing that.

00:34:01.120 I'm going to say, where's the fucking busboy at?

00:34:02.640 I'm going to throw him.

00:34:03.280 I'm going to throw the homies or homettes some fucking loot.

00:34:07.160 Started at the bottom.

00:34:08.060 It's all happened because of Reagan because of trickle-down economics.

00:34:11.340 Who started trickle-down economics?

00:34:12.800 Bring that up.

00:34:14.240 It was Reagan, wasn't it?

00:34:15.380 Give it to the waiters.

00:34:16.380 They'll give it to the busboys.

00:34:17.340 That's not helping.

00:34:18.580 I was just at the nurses' strike.

00:34:22.860 The largest nurses' strike in New York City history is going on right now.

00:34:25.380 Right now?

00:34:25.940 Yeah.

00:34:26.700 And I just came from it a little while ago.

00:34:28.720 And it was awesome.

00:34:29.620 I like strikes because it's like being in a parade, kind of because I'm from New Orleans.

00:34:33.900 So it's like, you're definitely partying at a band out there.

00:34:37.080 Yeah, but it's the largest nurses' strike that's ever happened in New York City.

00:34:40.080 It's going on right now.

00:34:40.980 Oh, my goodness.

00:34:41.760 See if you can play that real quick.

00:34:42.740 There you are.

00:34:44.040 Play it right there.

00:34:49.620 They're from New Orleans.

00:34:51.940 The band was pretty good.

00:34:53.060 They played, actually, they did Abbey Road.

00:34:55.380 They did his whole album.

00:34:56.760 Really?

00:34:57.200 Which I thought was impressive, dude.

00:34:58.580 Even that one where it's like, bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer came down upon his head.

00:35:05.060 Yeah, they even played that one.

00:35:06.220 And they only had three instruments.

00:35:08.120 But, yeah, I loved it.

00:35:09.620 I really enjoyed that.

00:35:10.480 My sister's a nurse, so I was like, oh, this is going on, dude.

00:35:12.720 I'm out there.

00:35:14.820 Now, did I think I would meet some hot nurses?

00:35:16.740 Yeah.

00:35:16.980 But a lot of them are men these days.

00:35:20.720 Which doesn't mean they can't be hot, but, you know, I had a different bedside manner in mind, you know?

00:35:26.060 So, anyway, moving on, Jason, you pervert.

00:35:29.180 So, yeah, do you get to a point in your career?

00:35:33.660 Because it is interesting to hear you say where you feel like you have, like, some personal achievement or some personal success or something where you kind of feel like, okay, I'm okay, you know?

00:35:45.960 Does that make any sense to you, kind of?

00:35:47.600 Because we're all trying to, like, we're all trying to, like, everyone's trying to feel like, you know, we all want to feel some sort of, a lot of people want to feel some sort of success, right?

00:35:55.820 I mean, I notice it in my own life, what makes me feel like, okay, I'm okay for me, you know?

00:36:05.720 I mean, it's a very complex, I mean, there's many things I'm going through, and maybe that's just my age, or, like, you know, I've been, like you were saying, trying to accomplish, get to a certain place.

00:36:17.680 And just because you, just because even in those worst times, and, like, maybe not doing the things I really, truly want to be doing, but I'm doing it to put food on the table, and then I get to the place where I'm actually, like, wow, I'm producing, writing, doing all these things, and this is my dream come true.

00:36:39.600 Why am I, why was I happier when I was in the fucking hole?

00:36:43.780 Why was I happier back then?

00:36:45.580 Is it just because it's nostalgic?

00:36:46.920 Is it, I mean, why?

00:36:48.440 Was it because I was still hunting, I'm hungry?

00:36:50.840 I mean, I got to this place where I considered, like, well, I don't have any more, per se, dreams as an actor.

00:36:57.280 Like, I never thought I'd get this far in the first place.

00:37:00.660 You know what I mean?

00:37:01.500 Yeah.

00:37:01.700 Like, the biggest dream to me was, like, make a TV show or movie for my people, make a real, true, authentic story.

00:37:08.620 Like, I did that.

00:37:10.320 And the comic book I always read when I was a kid, well, I'm fucking playing him.

00:37:14.620 Yeah.

00:37:15.100 And then you're, like, the video game that I fucking loved, I'm fucking playing him, too.

00:37:19.860 And it's, like, all these things are great.

00:37:22.080 And then sometimes you're, it's, but you're not, why do you not feel?

00:37:28.980 Does that happen, you think, even, like, in career, like, you had such a great career, does it happen even in careers like yours?

00:37:34.440 Like, do you think that's just a human thing?

00:37:36.540 I guess it's just a human thing, yeah.

00:37:38.640 Yeah, but I just, like, I just try to, I just try to have gratitude in all of it, man, because, you know, I have so many friends that are, maybe could be ill, sick, dying, and just, it's so, I mean, I'm kind of the kind of person, like, pretty high energy, and I'm really, really generally happy.

00:37:55.920 Like, I'm, like, Christmas morning every morning, I'm pretty fucking happy, I don't need coffee, I'm jazzed.

00:38:00.540 Dang.

00:38:01.020 And so I love, I love morning, I love being up, and I don't necessarily sleep that much, so I'll probably die earlier.

00:38:08.160 Yeah.

00:38:08.780 But my days are filled.

00:38:10.180 Yeah, they're gonna be filled with frickin' Filipinos as well, dude, that's for sure, if this is the rate you're going at.

00:38:15.840 But I just, I can't sit still, and I think if I don't have those things, I was pretty self-destructive if I wasn't creating and constantly doing stuff.

00:38:24.300 So I think that's what gives me, like, I don't necessarily think there's, I measure it by, oh, because I'm in this movie, or this and this and that, I'm actually, like, there's these little smaller things that I love doing.

00:38:34.340 Staying busy.

00:38:35.420 Yeah, but it's, like, the things I really, truly love, like, I'm an environmentalist at heart, so there's, you know, I work as much as I can with different, just, it's all the things that, the little small things that probably no one gives a shit about that I give about, and it's, like, trying to do those things that I really love.

00:38:50.160 And it's not about being necessarily seen, but it's trying to help in certain things that I love and care about.

00:38:55.400 Yeah, do you think, like, a lot of that stuff comes back to you more, like, once you've kind of gotten to a certain level, or once you kind of, because life just kind of gets busy, like, in your 30s and 40s, life gets busy, right?

00:39:04.720 And especially if you have a busy career, like yours, or a career where you have to travel a lot, and it varies from place to place, location to location, I find that it, like, it just gets, it gets hard to focus on some of the smaller things that are more important to me sometimes.

00:39:20.020 So is it easier, do you feel like it's easier now in your career to be able to have more time for those types of things?

00:39:24.680 I don't have any time for those things.

00:39:27.320 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:39:28.520 I have a hard time saying no, so I say yes to everything, and I'm, like, I have, I work a lot of things.

00:39:34.720 And so if someone comes in, and I'm fully loaded, I'm like, yeah, I can't not not say yes.

00:39:39.420 And so I don't know, I, here's the thing.

00:39:42.340 I'm doing everything I love to do.

00:39:44.280 Right.

00:39:44.840 So I don't ever think of it as work.

00:39:47.080 I'm just doing things I love to do.

00:39:49.660 And so that's maybe the biggest honor of it all.

00:39:51.880 And I think, I mean, that's why I want my kids now.

00:39:55.160 They look at me, they like, oh, my dad does what he loves to do, which maybe I didn't want earlier in my life.

00:40:02.260 It was just to, like, make sure I can put, it was very worrisome earlier, because, like I said, I wasn't on the best shows.

00:40:08.880 Yeah, it was more survival.

00:40:09.660 Yeah, I was like, people were like, oh, why don't you go do that movie or that movie?

00:40:11.820 I'm like, I didn't have an agent.

00:40:12.740 I couldn't get called.

00:40:13.440 Like, I couldn't get those things.

00:40:14.680 And so now I'm in a good place.

00:40:16.960 But I'm like, oh, I'm making up for lost time.

00:40:19.160 I'm like, there's so many things I want to do in this life.

00:40:20.860 And so I was a bit crammed in.

00:40:23.160 But I'm kind of doing everything I love.

00:40:26.820 Yeah.

00:40:27.800 I wouldn't say I'm taking care of myself the best, but I'm like, something's got to give.

00:40:31.860 I'm like, fuck, that's why I'm this big.

00:40:33.960 Burn this bitch down.

00:40:35.380 You know what I mean?

00:40:35.940 Well, if it's not, if those are muscles.

00:40:37.440 Filipinos, here we go.

00:40:38.220 Yeah, here we go, dude.

00:40:40.500 Fire up the feely truck, huh?

00:40:42.920 Back them up, dude.

00:40:44.040 Let them in the room.

00:40:46.440 Well, what about you?

00:40:47.300 I mean, like, you're just blown up in your time.

00:40:51.980 I mean, how does it feel to you?

00:40:53.220 Do you?

00:40:54.540 I think this year I started, just recently started thinking of having a little bit more like,

00:40:59.080 okay, I think everything will be okay.

00:41:01.160 Like, I'll be able to eat and have a roof over my head for the rest of my life.

00:41:04.400 So I have a little bit more semblance of like, okay, what does things look like for like those around me?

00:41:09.620 What are some other things that I can put my time into?

00:41:11.860 Like, I've been touring mostly for probably about 17 years for probably half the weeks, you know?

00:41:18.740 And so this year I don't have any tour dates.

00:41:21.840 And so it's nice to like, be like, oh, what does this look like?

00:41:26.960 Like, I had like two months with no, three months with no tour dates.

00:41:30.180 And I was like, this is crazy.

00:41:31.840 What is this?

00:41:32.460 So there's still like a lot of podcasting and there's still a ton of work to do with this,

00:41:35.980 but it's not like I have to travel as much.

00:41:38.300 So sometimes for the first time, it feels like my spirit even can be in like one place

00:41:41.720 where it can like gather its thoughts, you know?

00:41:45.660 I feel like I've just been playing hide and go seek with myself for a long time,

00:41:48.500 just even geographically.

00:41:50.640 So having some more just having some more like solace and being in one spot

00:42:00.420 has really kind of helped me just to start to get a look around me.

00:42:02.780 Do you go stir crazy?

00:42:04.640 Because we're such gypsy.

00:42:06.140 We have to, you know, our careers are.

00:42:07.600 A little bit.

00:42:08.300 But sometimes that's a trap for me.

00:42:09.760 I know, but you're like, Arnie, I'm like, oh, my God, I would love to get some rest.

00:42:12.620 Then you get like rest for a solid week and you're like, I got to get the fuck out of here.

00:42:16.240 Yeah, I got to get the fuck out of this rest.

00:42:18.320 I was like, my ass hurts, my back hurts.

00:42:21.360 And you're in a rest area along the interstate.

00:42:24.020 You're like, this is insane.

00:42:25.120 Like, do you get that where you're just like, oh, man, I got to get out.

00:42:28.320 Oh, for sure.

00:42:29.060 But I think sometimes I got to be careful because that's a trap, man.

00:42:31.760 That's just the devil trying to get me back out there.

00:42:33.620 Do you work with that in sobriety?

00:42:35.080 Like, is that like a thing?

00:42:36.060 Do you have to do AA?

00:42:37.140 Yeah, I go to AA meetings and I go to that stuff.

00:42:40.340 It's been like, you know, I've been in and out of sobriety for 10 years probably, mostly in.

00:42:46.020 And so that's been good.

00:42:47.440 So, yeah, I like it just because otherwise, yeah, I just can't handle it.

00:42:50.820 Like, I'll do too much of the cocaine, to be honest.

00:42:55.460 But, you know, I'll do too much of it.

00:42:57.420 And so I just don't want to be around it, you know.

00:43:01.740 I'll even walk and just look straight at the ground and see if anybody's dropped it sometimes outside.

00:43:08.360 I'll fucking run right into something.

00:43:10.380 What was that?

00:43:11.780 Not an eight ball, I'll tell you that.

00:43:14.100 I just peeped this whole block.

00:43:16.700 But, yeah, man.

00:43:17.640 Dude, I'll tell you this crazy story.

00:43:19.040 So one time my friend and I, and I didn't even know anything about drugs.

00:43:22.780 My friend and I are going to my apartment.

00:43:25.340 He was staying in town.

00:43:26.960 He was staying in town.

00:43:28.420 He's getting out of the taxi.

00:43:29.560 He dropped a little thing of cocaine in the taxi.

00:43:31.800 When I'm getting out, I just see it on the thing.

00:43:33.540 I pick it up and put it in my pocket.

00:43:35.420 So he didn't tell me that he had ever done cocaine.

00:43:38.580 And he'd been doing it, but he didn't tell me, right?

00:43:41.160 And I just thought he was kind of itchy or whatever, you know, because it was spring.

00:43:44.720 And so we go in my apartment.

00:43:46.740 He's like, hey, man, will you help me look for something?

00:43:48.220 And I'm like, yeah, what is it?

00:43:50.040 And he, like, wouldn't tell me what it was.

00:43:52.620 And I'm like, that doesn't make any sense, but yeah, I'll help you, you know.

00:43:56.100 So me and him are walking around looking for something that I don't know what it is, okay?

00:43:59.960 And then I kept sneaking off and doing the cocaine, right?

00:44:03.480 So, dude, now, at one point, he gave up and went to sleep.

00:44:07.700 I'm walking around my apartment looking everywhere for something, and it was the drugs I was doing.

00:44:16.380 Absolute insanity, dude.

00:44:18.660 Absolute insanity, bro.

00:44:20.240 So, yeah, I mean, people can get lost out there.

00:44:24.520 But yeah, dude.

00:44:25.840 Did you ever read that Miles Davis?

00:44:27.440 Did you ever read Miles Davis' biography?

00:44:30.620 Uh-uh.

00:44:31.620 There's this great part where he was up in Harlem, and, you know, at the time, he was at the peak of his career.

00:44:36.520 He had this Lamborghini.

00:44:37.700 Let's just say it's, like, bright yellow.

00:44:39.620 It snows out.

00:44:40.640 It's snowing outside, and he comes up to this spot, and he's in Harlem, gets out, goes in, and he's coming back out.

00:44:49.640 And he gets back in the car, and he's got some drugs.

00:44:53.080 Comes back out, gets in the car, looks down, and he's like, fuck.

00:44:57.300 He, like, drugs are all, all the coke is all over the floor, and he's fucking freaking out.

00:45:03.640 And then he thinks he's going to get busted by the cops, so he just gets out, goes back in, hides in his fucking closet, waits it out for a couple hours, sweating it out, and he's on the drugs.

00:45:13.220 Yeah.

00:45:14.300 Comes back out hours later.

00:45:16.420 Car's still there, because, you know, it's Miles Davis.

00:45:18.680 Open up the door, and all the drugs are gone.

00:45:22.240 And he, like, clicks, and he's like, it was fucking snow on his shoes.

00:45:25.800 Oh.

00:45:27.080 When he got in and, like, totally lost his mind, like, he just thought he spilled all the fuck.

00:45:31.060 I was like, that's a good time.

00:45:33.180 Yeah, yeah, dude.

00:45:34.620 That was a pro story.

00:45:35.980 That's a good time, yeah.

00:45:37.440 And he didn't drive, which is the best part, guys.

00:45:39.400 That's the best part.

00:45:40.340 Good job, Miles.

00:45:41.340 October 21st, 1972, Miles Davis, never mind, wrecked his coke-filled Mayura and broke both of his legs.

00:45:49.320 So he took it for one lap.

00:45:51.620 Jim Glickenhaus was the first person on scene, Miles was in the hospital for a long time, and didn't play for almost a year.

00:45:58.080 Dang.

00:45:58.900 That'll make you quit doing drugs right there.

00:46:00.840 That'll make you quit smoking, dude.

00:46:02.220 That's his drowning near the reef right there.

00:46:05.600 Dang.

00:46:06.800 Dude, but if my legs were broken, I could still do cocaine, I think.

00:46:11.000 And I hate to say that.

00:46:12.440 And don't say that to your kids.

00:46:14.860 But what's, so now you have children?

00:46:18.740 I've had them, man.

00:46:19.780 Yeah.

00:46:20.780 Did you collect some along the way?

00:46:22.320 I didn't mean that, but did you like, did you have a family that you had planned?

00:46:25.500 Or was it just kind of like, did you sort of have children?

00:46:27.780 No.

00:46:28.080 Oh, yeah, no, I was married and had kids, yeah.

00:46:31.080 Oh, nice, man.

00:46:31.980 Was it cool being a father?

00:46:33.300 Like, was that like a scary thing for you?

00:46:35.820 It's actually funny.

00:46:36.840 He's just got into...

00:46:38.460 Oh, yeah, beautiful kids.

00:46:40.140 He just got into acting.

00:46:43.220 He's, I mean, they've been acting and doing...

00:46:44.660 Wolf is his name?

00:46:45.560 Yeah.

00:46:46.100 Oh, that's a cool name.

00:46:47.240 Nakoa Wolf.

00:46:48.100 But he's, he's going to be in Dune with me.

00:46:51.380 Dune?

00:46:52.120 He's, yeah, he's Leto Jr.

00:46:54.560 Dang.

00:46:55.000 So he auditioned on his own and got it and he killed it.

00:46:59.700 Was he geeked?

00:47:00.980 I mean, he, those guys grew up watching me, you know, he was sitting on Affleck's lap

00:47:06.460 and she's sitting with Gal and, you know, we're doing Justice League.

00:47:09.520 They were like six and eight.

00:47:11.760 Wow.

00:47:12.120 I mean, Justice League, they grew up on set with me.

00:47:14.340 So they just...

00:47:14.860 So it's so much other world.

00:47:15.620 So it's like just, yeah, I mean, he was in a Batman outfit for at least five years.

00:47:19.280 Like the kid is, loves all that and love Dune.

00:47:22.180 And so, yeah, my babies are, Lola's a singer.

00:47:25.440 So she wants to continue in music and then Wolf wants to do acting.

00:47:29.060 So, which I was very, she's such a gnarly business.

00:47:33.040 So I'm like, I'm like, go be a doctor.

00:47:35.360 Use your brain.

00:47:37.280 Yeah.

00:47:37.800 And go pay these nurses, doc.

00:47:40.580 Actually, it's the hospitals that aren't paying them.

00:47:42.440 But yeah, dude, that's got to be interesting if your kid wants to go down that road.

00:47:46.780 But then you'll have a lot of experience too.

00:47:48.700 And you'll be there to help him be supportive in that way.

00:47:50.600 Yeah.

00:47:51.160 Yeah.

00:47:51.440 And he's doing it, he's young, so he can try it out.

00:47:53.740 Yeah, yeah.

00:47:54.480 Absolutely.

00:47:55.140 Yeah.

00:47:55.400 Guide him.

00:47:56.460 You have kids?

00:47:57.260 No, I don't have any kids yet.

00:47:58.420 I want to get some kids.

00:47:59.860 I want to...

00:48:00.640 Sorry.

00:48:01.360 I would like to have children.

00:48:02.660 I'm not trying to get some kids.

00:48:06.760 No.

00:48:07.400 I want all kids to be free if they're not...

00:48:09.200 If I don't know them...

00:48:10.880 Oh, man.

00:48:11.720 I don't want to know them.

00:48:12.520 That's my rule.

00:48:14.140 If I don't know kids, I don't want to know them.

00:48:16.540 You know, people are like, hey, I want you to shoot my kids.

00:48:18.360 I'm like, fuck no.

00:48:19.540 I don't want to meet your kids, dude.

00:48:21.520 People are perverts, man.

00:48:23.440 You know, these politicians.

00:48:27.020 Anyway, what else are we talking about?

00:48:28.660 You got a special aide you're with right now?

00:48:30.600 No, I don't.

00:48:32.320 That's another thing.

00:48:33.060 You're a free bird right now, too?

00:48:34.220 What's that?

00:48:34.680 You're a free bird?

00:48:35.680 Free bird, yeah.

00:48:36.320 But I would like to have a spouse.

00:48:38.300 I would like to have a woman spouse, too.

00:48:40.600 And I would like to...

00:48:42.260 Yeah, I would like to have that, man.

00:48:45.080 So it'll happen.

00:48:46.420 It's just like, you know, I just got to...

00:48:48.760 I think for one, too, I've just been going all the time.

00:48:51.060 It was like...

00:48:51.860 I'd be like dating somebody and I'd be out of town for a while and you come back and you're

00:48:55.880 like, oh, shit, I forgot about this.

00:48:57.580 Not in a bad way.

00:48:58.400 It's just like my brain was somewhere else.

00:48:59.880 It's hard for me to focus on stuff sometimes.

00:49:02.060 So I think I just feel like more of that semblance of like, okay, now this maybe could

00:49:06.540 be more manageable.

00:49:07.500 But I got to change some of my own ways and stuff like that a little bit, too.

00:49:10.420 And be more purposeful, I think, about just different prayer and different things like

00:49:16.760 that overall, you know?

00:49:18.900 You come from a big family?

00:49:20.120 You got brothers, sisters?

00:49:21.080 Yeah, I got three siblings.

00:49:22.660 And one of them is married.

00:49:24.980 You're a baby?

00:49:26.500 I'm the middle.

00:49:27.000 One of the middle kids.

00:49:27.660 Two boys and two girls.

00:49:28.500 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:49:28.920 So we got a good little group.

00:49:30.340 Yeah.

00:49:31.960 But yeah, nobody in my family can swim that good, though.

00:49:36.480 No?

00:49:36.900 Yeah.

00:49:37.660 Land people.

00:49:38.780 Yeah.

00:49:39.320 If you need us, we'll be on the land, you know?

00:49:42.360 That's our motto, dude.

00:49:44.940 That's our family motto.

00:49:46.100 I'm going to get it tattooed on my brother's back.

00:49:47.180 When you were in New Orleans, look at what kind of sports were you into.

00:49:50.780 Basketball.

00:49:51.280 Dude, is it true that they have the team called the Tall Blacks?

00:49:54.980 Yeah.

00:49:55.640 Is that true?

00:49:56.500 The basketball team in New Zealand is called the Tall Blacks?

00:49:58.500 Yeah.

00:49:58.960 That's freaking amazing, dude.

00:50:01.920 We got, yeah, in New Orleans we have, well, we have some of the players that are kind

00:50:05.720 of thick over there, you know?

00:50:07.260 So we got the round browns over there.

00:50:09.320 That's our team.

00:50:10.480 No offense, Zion Williamson.

00:50:12.200 But his weight does fluctuate.

00:50:13.540 And he's cost our city a lot of money.

00:50:17.220 But what is this?

00:50:18.060 Yeah, this is, oh, that's the New Zealand All Blacks?

00:50:19.800 I don't know.

00:50:24.360 This is a bunch of Ben Simmonses.

00:50:26.080 They got maybe one and a half brothers on this team, dude.

00:50:29.340 And this, but hey, that's awesome, though.

00:50:31.920 Good for them.

00:50:33.420 You're a big basketball fan?

00:50:35.140 I like college football.

00:50:36.180 It's probably my favorite.

00:50:37.140 College football.

00:50:37.680 Who's your team?

00:50:39.580 I'm a Tennessee and a LSU guy.

00:50:41.820 Yeah.

00:50:42.160 So those are my squads.

00:50:43.180 What about you?

00:50:44.360 I don't do college football that much.

00:50:46.100 You didn't get into it with your size?

00:50:47.380 I'm sure they were like, get out here, boy.

00:50:48.340 I was hockey.

00:50:49.700 Really?

00:50:50.380 Yeah.

00:50:51.340 You were a goalie?

00:50:52.240 Soccer.

00:50:52.700 No, I was center.

00:50:53.880 Nah.

00:50:54.500 But I love soccer, too, man.

00:50:56.560 I was playing soccer.

00:50:57.720 But then I was a skateboarder.

00:51:00.680 I mean, like, they all want you to get into wrestling.

00:51:02.280 Yeah, that's weird.

00:51:03.560 That's weird.

00:51:04.220 But if you were a surfer, that makes sense.

00:51:05.840 Yeah, no, I just grew up skating.

00:51:07.120 I wasn't always this big.

00:51:08.560 I mean, like, you know, but that's what I was doing when I was little

00:51:11.220 and took that into high school.

00:51:13.240 But I love skateboarding.

00:51:14.140 And then, surprisingly, my main love is rock climbing.

00:51:18.600 Yeah.

00:51:19.080 So I traveled the world of rock climbing, and that was kind of my thing.

00:51:21.580 Did you ever go rock climbing with?

00:51:24.220 Sharma.

00:51:24.840 Jared Leto?

00:51:26.060 No.

00:51:26.700 Oh, I mean, I've seen him out when we've been climbing, yeah.

00:51:29.080 He loves it.

00:51:29.860 He does.

00:51:30.780 He climbs a lot with Honnold.

00:51:33.000 Honnold.

00:51:33.460 Oh, Alex Honnold?

00:51:34.240 Yeah.

00:51:34.540 Oh, cool.

00:51:35.380 Yeah, he climbs a lot with him.

00:51:36.540 They do, like, El Cap and all kind of stuff together.

00:51:38.920 He took me to a party here one time.

00:51:40.320 I just remembered in New York.

00:51:41.420 And everybody was kind of dressed like they looked like different birds and stuff.

00:51:45.160 It was pretty crazy, yeah.

00:51:46.300 And there was no air conditioning in the place.

00:51:48.060 It was, like, fancy.

00:51:49.800 It was bizarre, but it was what you'd expect out of him.

00:51:55.060 Yeah, that's people out on the rock right there.

00:51:57.160 Yeah, rock climbing's pretty amazing, isn't it?

00:51:59.300 I love it.

00:52:00.100 What makes you love it so much?

00:52:01.720 Well, it's something I did when I was little.

00:52:02.860 At the first moment, like, my mom took me climbing in South Dakota, and I just, when I touched

00:52:07.840 the rock and just moved on it, it just felt like I'm probably better at climbing than I

00:52:12.400 am at walking.

00:52:13.680 Like, it just, my body just feels, it's just something that you connect with that you really

00:52:16.560 enjoy.

00:52:17.260 Yeah.

00:52:17.520 But I love just the fear and the problem solving and, like, the fear of it all.

00:52:22.520 Because, like, we'll do, like, deep water soloing now in Mallorca, and you, like, climb up, and

00:52:26.380 then you fall down in the water.

00:52:27.480 But it's just, like, the challenge of, like, I love climbing stuff when I was a kid.

00:52:33.280 It's like, how do you not, like, I love climbing trees.

00:52:35.180 I love just climbing.

00:52:36.540 Yeah.

00:52:37.340 So, I don't know.

00:52:37.900 I'm a fucking gorilla.

00:52:38.860 I don't know what to say.

00:52:39.580 Yeah.

00:52:40.480 Being in the dirt, and I just enjoy taking my kids.

00:52:43.320 My kids do it, and it just keeps us out in nature.

00:52:46.960 Something to do, I guess.

00:52:47.860 It'd be, like, fishing or hunting, like, for other people, but, like, being in nature.

00:52:51.020 Oh, yeah.

00:52:51.800 And going to do adventures and, you know, setting out to do something and accomplishing it.

00:52:58.020 But also, the other thing, too, is I think I'm very, very much, and I'm not diagnosed ADHD,

00:53:04.140 but I'm just, there's a lot of things going on, and I feel like when I ride motorcycles

00:53:08.320 and I go rock climbing, it's just, like, you can't do anything else but be there.

00:53:12.280 So, that's just, like, a little bit of my therapy or meditation is, like, that's when

00:53:15.960 everything just gets real clean and clear.

00:53:17.940 Makes you focus in.

00:53:19.000 Yeah.

00:53:19.340 Yeah.

00:53:19.800 What you get, you know, everyone gets high on that or loves that, you know, I mean,

00:53:24.020 when you can really, mind-body-spirit connects and you flow in something, that's what you,

00:53:28.460 you know.

00:53:29.180 Oh, yeah.

00:53:29.680 When you're zipping down on a freaking motorcycle, you can't, yeah, it's hard to be, like,

00:53:33.760 oh, I got to do that email or whatever.

00:53:35.200 Well, it's just like, everyone, you're in a car, you're, like, you know, doing your

00:53:37.520 makeup, you're eating food, you're talking to someone, you're not paying attention to

00:53:40.000 shit, where you're riding a motorcycle, it's, you're, you're gonna die if you fucking, if

00:53:44.760 you're out, if you're doing your makeup while you're riding your motorcycle, you're fucked.

00:53:47.880 Yeah, yeah.

00:53:48.520 It's not easy.

00:53:49.740 Unless they come out with those self-driving motorcycles, which I read about, that's gonna

00:53:52.460 be, I'm like, what are we doing now?

00:53:55.220 Self-driving motorcycles?

00:53:56.160 Yeah.

00:53:56.540 That's not what we need.

00:53:58.480 No.

00:54:00.000 A lot of organ donors are motorcyclists, and I didn't mean to say that out loud to you, but

00:54:04.220 you knew it.

00:54:05.680 I'm an organ donor.

00:54:05.980 A lot of them are.

00:54:07.520 You're an organ donor?

00:54:08.320 A lot of them are.

00:54:09.040 Yeah.

00:54:09.380 You keeping them?

00:54:10.240 No.

00:54:10.940 No.

00:54:11.680 Yeah.

00:54:11.940 I don't know if anyone wants them.

00:54:14.120 Fucking pickled.

00:54:15.260 I'm actually waiting for this AI, and shit's come around to go, like, yo, two new kidneys,

00:54:21.120 livers and kidneys right here.

00:54:22.620 Let's go.

00:54:23.260 Livers and kidneys, dude.

00:54:24.300 That's what I need, bro.

00:54:25.640 Oh, yeah.

00:54:26.300 I want a fresh sack of lungs, boy.

00:54:28.060 Them inner tits.

00:54:28.980 Yeah.

00:54:29.280 And then just nail them again.

00:54:32.220 30 more years just bashing these bitches up.

00:54:34.820 Yeah, dude.

00:54:35.520 Toughen up, fucker.

00:54:36.220 Bro, that'd be crazy.

00:54:37.480 You're like 95.

00:54:38.060 Swap them out?

00:54:39.040 Yeah, like, yeah, I'm 95, but I got a seven-year-old liver.

00:54:42.320 Yeah.

00:54:43.020 You're just partying on that thing?

00:54:43.920 Just getting hammered drunk on a one-bud light.

00:54:46.280 Fucking sick.

00:54:47.680 Sleep in somebody's boat or whatever.

00:54:49.200 You know, one thing I wish I had done in the past was invest earlier.

00:57:29.500 When you, what else was I going to ask about?

00:57:31.780 Oh, what made you and Dave Bautista become such friends, do you think?

00:57:36.440 Well, we do a lot of action and when generally there's, there's not a lot of big guys that

00:57:42.680 are good actors and do action.

00:57:45.320 It's kind of a rare thing to have all of them.

00:57:48.000 And I think Dave is a phenomenal actor and, and, and I really wanted to fight him and see.

00:57:55.340 And I was like, dude, I would love to go toe to toe with him.

00:57:59.020 And it's just kind of like, yeah, I respect him.

00:58:02.520 And I, and then when we met, we're very different, but like super, you know, um, there's no ego.

00:58:11.380 There's no, like, we're very supportive of each other.

00:58:14.060 We understand the story.

00:58:15.080 Like, it's just a wonderful, when you find an acting partner that you just, you're there

00:58:19.320 for the story instead of like your career, you're a lot of guys, a lot of famous dudes

00:58:24.840 can't bleed or can't get hurt.

00:58:26.480 I'm like, fuck, I die in everything.

00:58:28.100 Like my kids begged me not to die anymore.

00:58:30.720 I'm like, that's how we, that's how you fucking eat.

00:58:33.640 I'm like, you're not going to die again.

00:58:35.820 I'm like everything.

00:58:37.360 That's how you have your life.

00:58:40.980 So I'm not afraid to do all that kind of stuff and, you know, bleeding.

00:58:44.760 And I think Dave likes to get down and dirty too.

00:58:47.320 So, um, but he's just a really, a really great guy.

00:58:50.980 The reason why we want to do it again is because it's just a good working relationship.

00:58:55.820 Yeah.

00:58:56.120 Yeah.

00:58:56.320 His acting is great.

00:58:57.500 Yeah.

00:58:57.740 I saw him in Blade Runner and I just thought he was, he was phenomenal.

00:59:01.060 And it was so subtle.

00:59:02.400 He's very, just like the opposite of me.

00:59:05.480 I couldn't be subtle if he tried.

00:59:06.960 Like, it's just.

00:59:08.080 I thought you did a great job in this movie, man.

00:59:09.980 Thanks, bud.

00:59:10.560 Yeah.

00:59:10.840 Thank you.

00:59:11.160 I don't, it's, I don't, I don't know if I've been paying attention.

00:59:13.340 I guess it's like, if you're not paying attention, if you don't, if you're not noticing the acting

00:59:16.620 and then it's great.

00:59:17.220 Right.

00:59:17.480 Isn't that kind of the usual kind of, isn't that usually kind of the thought?

00:59:22.420 Yeah.

00:59:23.020 Yeah.

00:59:23.440 If it's not tripping you up.

00:59:24.440 Yeah.

00:59:24.860 It's great.

00:59:25.180 Do you, do you feel like it's gotten easier to act over time?

00:59:27.440 Like, do you start to just understand it better?

00:59:28.940 Does it become a little bit more like a muscle?

00:59:30.240 What is that like?

00:59:30.920 I just think I'm getting, I'm getting, you know, chances to do it now.

00:59:35.200 Like, I've never even been in a rom-com.

00:59:37.980 You know, like, my first comedy was last year with, with, with Jack Black doing Minecraft.

00:59:43.420 So, like, you know, it's just now finally catching on that I can.

00:59:47.420 Do other stuff?

00:59:48.240 Yeah.

00:59:48.420 I'm not just getting my ass kicked and dying all the time.

00:59:52.080 Yeah.

00:59:52.200 You're not just a bouncer who's fricking going to the salon or whatever.

00:59:55.520 Yeah.

00:59:56.240 I think after like Game of Thrones, like people didn't know what to do with me.

00:59:59.160 So it's like, he didn't speak English.

01:00:00.340 So there's like, what the fuck do you do with Drogo?

01:00:02.060 We're like, who are we going to put is that, in that rom-com?

01:00:05.480 Drogo is, I mean, he's handsome.

01:00:06.920 Like, let's, let's get that motherfucker.

01:00:09.360 I don't, I hope he speaks English.

01:00:10.900 Like, he's French.

01:00:12.420 You know what I mean?

01:00:12.680 Like, what are you going to have?

01:00:15.300 So.

01:00:15.620 This is hilarious.

01:00:16.580 That's great.

01:00:18.460 Have you ever get to spend any time with Jack?

01:00:20.320 I haven't gotten to spend any time with him.

01:00:22.060 Oh, man.

01:00:22.840 So funny?

01:00:24.120 No, he's just, just like the greatest human, man.

01:00:29.180 Wow.

01:00:29.380 Like, you just would love just being with him.

01:00:31.220 He's so much fun.

01:00:32.160 Oh, that's great.

01:00:32.680 And it's just like, he's that all the time.

01:00:35.800 You go, you know, after work, we go eat together.

01:00:37.960 Like, I just like people who, they don't, they don't act one way.

01:00:42.460 And then, you know, when it works over, there's someone different.

01:00:44.820 You know, like, I'm just, I wear my heart on my sleeve.

01:00:47.000 This is exactly who I am.

01:00:48.020 This is what you're going to get.

01:00:48.880 Here we are.

01:00:49.860 Yeah.

01:00:50.040 But do you ever get people that confuse you for people a lot?

01:00:53.840 Because I'll have people that come up to me sometimes, and they think I'm Tony Cavalero.

01:00:58.060 Do you get people like that sometimes, I think?

01:00:59.820 Or even like this.

01:01:00.440 Like, if you walked in downstairs, somebody might think you're Joaquin Phoenix downstairs.

01:01:04.720 Because how he did that Letterman.

01:01:06.260 Remember?

01:01:06.680 Pull up Joaquin Phoenix on Letterman that time.

01:01:09.180 What?

01:01:10.220 See if we're close or not.

01:01:11.900 Yeah.

01:01:12.080 Yeah.

01:01:12.160 Oh, that's pretty much it, bro.

01:01:17.020 There's my twin brother right there, dude.

01:01:19.620 If you were Joaquin Phoenix today this whole time.

01:01:22.280 Bro, put these on.

01:01:23.360 If you tell me you're Joaquin Phoenix, bro, it's going to get crazy in here.

01:01:26.900 Oh, wow, huh?

01:01:28.360 I'm fucking blind.

01:01:29.360 Yeah.

01:01:29.840 Oh, yeah, dude.

01:01:31.360 It is.

01:01:32.420 Yeah.

01:01:32.980 Oh, yeah.

01:01:33.880 I wear this so I can see.

01:01:34.780 Those are prescription.

01:01:35.960 Yeah, no, I wear glasses.

01:01:37.920 Dude, I wear glasses.

01:01:39.060 Yeah.

01:01:39.520 Mine are downstairs.

01:01:40.220 My eyes are going bad.

01:01:41.080 I just can't do contacts.

01:01:42.220 I can't put them in, man, but.

01:01:43.840 I'm not putting a little thing like that in my eye.

01:01:46.000 Like a little sight painted.

01:01:47.200 Would you ever get the little surgery?

01:01:49.160 I don't think I would.

01:01:50.540 I don't want somebody going in my eye.

01:01:52.140 I don't want that.

01:01:53.000 While I'm laying there like some pedophile.

01:01:55.740 I don't think you look like that guy.

01:01:57.300 But do you know who the dancing outlaw is?

01:02:00.840 That guy that does that, the Tennessee two-step guy?

01:02:04.940 Yeah.

01:02:06.220 There you are.

01:02:07.900 Oh, that guy.

01:02:08.960 What's his name?

01:02:09.360 Jessica White?

01:02:11.480 Bro.

01:02:12.720 Dude, you could totally play Jessica White.

01:02:14.380 You could.

01:02:15.380 You, dude.

01:02:16.140 Not me.

01:02:16.840 Oh, I thought you were saying you look like him.

01:02:18.560 No, man.

01:02:19.640 Pull up the one where he's got no beard.

01:02:21.620 That one in the middle.

01:02:22.840 Dude, that's you for days.

01:02:24.540 What are you talking about?

01:02:25.340 Oh, God.

01:02:26.640 Listen, I said nice things about you.

01:02:28.120 I know, dude.

01:02:30.880 This guy.

01:02:32.140 No, you don't get Jessica White?

01:02:34.600 This guy is a fucking listening to methadone all day, which is a band.

01:02:40.200 But it's only, yeah, I'm joking.

01:02:42.060 Okay.

01:02:42.680 All right.

01:02:43.080 My bad.

01:02:43.820 No, that's okay.

01:02:44.740 Is there any recent, is there a recent interview with Jessica White or did he pass away?

01:02:48.740 He passed away.

01:02:50.080 Damn.

01:02:50.480 You should listen to the way he talks, but it's probably because you guys, maybe it's

01:02:53.520 because you sound familiar.

01:02:57.400 That's him?

01:02:58.760 No, that doesn't look like, he looks like Hunter S. Thompson right there.

01:03:01.200 Yeah, that is not.

01:03:02.240 No, it's not.

01:03:03.200 No.

01:03:04.260 Yeah, it's Jessica White.

01:03:05.520 Yeah.

01:03:05.840 Wow.

01:03:07.180 He's dead now.

01:03:09.080 That's Kid Rock.

01:03:09.920 You ever interview Kid Rock?

01:03:11.440 Yeah.

01:03:11.900 He lives in Nashville.

01:03:13.240 That'd be easy then.

01:03:14.120 I see him there all the time.

01:03:15.060 He has his-

01:03:15.600 Oh, he does.

01:03:16.280 He's got to be club.

01:03:17.320 Yeah, he has a club.

01:03:18.000 And he has a crazy house there.

01:03:19.620 He built like a replica of the White House up on this hill there.

01:03:21.880 No shit.

01:03:22.700 It's insane.

01:03:24.060 Wow.

01:03:24.320 It's insane.

01:03:24.720 And he collects a lot of cool stuff.

01:03:27.600 Bob is his real name, but he's a super interesting guy.

01:03:30.780 And he's really nice too.

01:03:31.940 That's his house right there.

01:03:33.040 I think, holy shit.

01:03:34.620 It's crazy, bro.

01:03:37.180 And it's got a lot of Kid Rock stuff in it.

01:03:39.560 Nobody's a bigger fan of Kid Rock than Kid Rock, dude.

01:03:42.840 I feel like he-

01:03:44.000 Has he built-

01:03:44.440 Has he played-

01:03:45.480 Is he doing new albums?

01:03:46.900 Oh, yeah.

01:03:47.420 He still does stuff.

01:03:48.220 He has a Rock the Country-

01:03:50.540 Okay.

01:03:51.380 Pull that up.

01:03:51.840 I think it's called Rock the Country that just came out.

01:03:53.740 A tour-

01:03:54.020 A new tour that just came out that Ella Langley's going to be on.

01:03:56.260 Jason Aldean.

01:03:58.860 Williams.

01:03:59.580 Hank Williams.

01:04:00.620 There you go.

01:04:01.200 Kid Rock.

01:04:01.540 Oh, there you go.

01:04:02.160 Jason Aldean.

01:04:02.640 Blake Shelton.

01:04:03.300 Jelly Roll Creed.

01:04:04.620 Under the sunlight.

01:04:07.100 Dude, I could see you play Scott Stapp in like a biopic or biopic, whatever they call it.

01:04:11.800 That's you getting me back at that, Jessica White.

01:04:14.940 Yeah.

01:04:15.340 I deserved it.

01:04:16.060 I apologize.

01:04:17.240 Dude, you know what I used to love?

01:04:18.400 Soundgarden, dude.

01:04:19.400 Of course.

01:04:21.020 Yeah, man.

01:04:21.740 What a legend.

01:04:22.580 And I feel-

01:04:23.720 Was that them?

01:04:27.120 Shit.

01:04:27.540 Maybe I don't know who they are.

01:04:29.840 These are the eyes of disarray.

01:04:32.800 Is that-

01:04:33.580 No, that's not-

01:04:34.220 Would you even care?

01:04:36.120 Do-da-do-da-do.

01:04:37.420 Is that-

01:04:37.880 Man, I'm feeling-

01:04:39.800 Oh, Stone Temple Pilots.

01:04:41.340 No, Stone Temple Pilots, yeah.

01:04:42.460 Dude, Stone Temple Pilots was good, bro.

01:04:43.840 They were.

01:04:44.460 What's the first concert you ever went to?

01:04:48.100 What the-

01:04:48.780 I was at the Iowa State Fair.

01:04:50.140 What the fuck is his name?

01:04:51.000 He does bourbon, one scotch and beer.

01:04:52.880 Jesus Christ.

01:04:53.780 I'm blanking on his name.

01:04:55.160 Trace Adkins, maybe?

01:04:56.320 No.

01:04:57.660 No.

01:05:00.540 God damn it.

01:05:02.520 It's okay.

01:05:02.900 Bad to the bone.

01:05:04.800 George Sergan?

01:05:05.960 Yeah, George Sergan.

01:05:07.280 Yeah.

01:05:07.800 One bourbon, one scotch, one beer.

01:05:09.720 Iowa State Fair, baby.

01:05:11.140 Dude, how nice is that thing?

01:05:12.820 Iowa State Fair?

01:05:13.500 Yeah.

01:05:13.800 It's amazing.

01:05:14.760 Haven't been in years.

01:05:15.540 Funnel cake?

01:05:16.100 Oof.

01:05:16.960 Yeah.

01:05:17.640 But I'm not driving across town for a funnel cake.

01:05:20.740 But I guess that one would be the best because you'd have all the animals.

01:05:23.280 You'd have all the crafts.

01:05:24.320 Yeah.

01:05:25.340 In the big rides?

01:05:26.460 I had a good time there.

01:05:27.340 I was growing up.

01:05:28.100 Yeah.

01:05:28.460 I guess people did.

01:05:29.280 I couldn't walk around there now.

01:05:31.320 I'd be fucking screwed.

01:05:32.380 There's no way.

01:05:33.120 Yeah.

01:05:33.480 You'd have to hide.

01:05:34.000 You'd have to dress up like something.

01:05:34.980 Those days are over, man.

01:05:36.400 But it's your size.

01:05:37.320 Do you have to disguise yourself as something unique if you're out in the public?

01:05:40.840 There's no way I'm going to hide.

01:05:42.460 You could hide.

01:05:43.120 I can't hide.

01:05:43.800 I mean, I'm in the flannel and the hat.

01:05:45.860 It's about as hiding as it gets.

01:05:47.320 If you've got a special outfit.

01:05:49.420 I mean, you mean if I go out as like Boba Fett or like fucking the helmet on?

01:05:54.600 Like Iron Man?

01:05:55.520 I don't know, dude.

01:05:56.600 I mean, I could hide if I had a helmet on.

01:05:58.800 Yeah.

01:05:59.240 Yeah.

01:05:59.520 If you wore like a football helmet or something.

01:06:02.860 That'd be crazy.

01:06:03.620 I was in Jordan one time.

01:06:06.820 We were shooting Dune and I wanted to go see Petra and I got all wrapped up and it was

01:06:11.040 great because I got to walk through there.

01:06:14.140 There's tons of tourists.

01:06:15.300 And so I did the whole, you know, full wrap and everything's on.

01:06:18.840 But it was hot and this little bit of my triangles are sticking out and we're walking

01:06:23.920 through and this, this girl is like kind of sees and she goes, and I'm like, but this

01:06:30.220 fucking thing gets me in trouble more than anything, man.

01:06:32.880 Because it is that a, is that like a Hawaiian tattoo?

01:06:35.480 Yeah.

01:06:35.880 This is basically tapped on and I have one that goes on my head.

01:06:40.140 It goes right through there.

01:06:41.040 And how do people earn?

01:06:42.040 Do you earn them or how do you get it?

01:06:43.100 This is like a family crest.

01:06:44.280 Think of it like that.

01:06:45.020 It's like the guardian.

01:06:46.360 This is the shark and this is for protection.

01:06:48.160 Those are the Ihe, the spear.

01:06:49.660 This is the mono, the shark.

01:06:50.960 So basically when I'm in the water and we're snorkeling, the shark knows to go to you because

01:06:56.880 you're white and I'm Hawaiian.

01:06:58.440 So it's like, this is what just lets them know.

01:07:01.400 Yeah.

01:07:02.520 That's fair.

01:07:03.320 Yeah.

01:07:03.660 I got to get something.

01:07:05.780 You just roll with me.

01:07:07.020 I'll be like, I'll point it somewhere else.

01:07:08.640 I'll be on your back.

01:07:10.640 Pointing out the directions that way.

01:07:11.900 Have you ever seen any sharks?

01:07:13.020 Have you ever seen anything?

01:07:14.220 I went swimming with sharks one time in South Africa.

01:07:16.280 We're in a cage.

01:07:17.340 Have I ever seen any?

01:07:17.940 Like big great whites?

01:07:18.780 Yeah.

01:07:19.540 Did you see a big great white?

01:07:20.720 Oh yeah.

01:07:21.200 One came and got, so there were these two round cages off the boat and since the edge

01:07:25.240 of the boat's like this and you have two circles, there's a space in between the cages

01:07:28.660 right up against the boat, like because it's two circles and one of the sharks got stuck

01:07:33.140 right in there and he was absolutely going apeshit.

01:07:35.040 And then another one came up and put his snout like in the cage and I got to touch the top

01:07:40.440 of it, pat him on the head a little bit.

01:07:42.480 Pretty cool.

01:07:43.940 Yep.

01:07:45.020 That old Doberman touch I put on him.

01:07:47.740 You know?

01:07:48.380 Just two taps and two.

01:07:49.440 Did you like South Africa?

01:07:50.900 Oh dude, it's the most beautiful place that I've been.

01:07:53.000 Yeah.

01:07:53.380 You know, is there a place you've been that really makes you feel like this is really

01:07:55.740 something special?

01:07:56.720 I just got back from Guatemala.

01:07:58.040 I went there with my lady.

01:07:59.080 Oh nice.

01:07:59.460 She's from Guatemala and that was my first time.

01:08:00.960 So we went to like, we got to go see the pyramids, which is like the largest pyramids

01:08:05.040 in the world.

01:08:05.660 Bring them up.

01:08:06.140 My father's from Nicaragua.

01:08:09.360 Really?

01:08:09.800 Yeah.

01:08:09.920 Which is neighbors to Guatemala, I think.

01:08:12.200 Is it in Central America?

01:08:14.140 Yep.

01:08:14.880 Ooh, that thing's nice.

01:08:16.120 I'm surprised you don't live in one of those.

01:08:18.760 Because people think you do, dude.

01:08:20.240 Tikal, the one that, yeah, Tikal, the one that's, yeah, they write that one.

01:08:25.120 Pretty, pretty spectacular.

01:08:26.300 And the one to the left.

01:08:28.080 Food, culture, just so rich.

01:08:30.660 Wow.

01:08:31.360 How long was y'all's trip for?

01:08:32.640 Antigua.

01:08:33.160 I went to Antigua.

01:08:34.040 Antigua was just like, I've never seen streets like that.

01:08:37.180 We were there for like two weeks.

01:08:38.540 Sorry.

01:08:38.900 Two weeks.

01:08:39.580 Seeing family.

01:08:40.760 Getting to the parents and the family.

01:08:43.600 Yeah.

01:08:43.980 See if they like me, you know.

01:08:45.340 The fucking gringos coming in.

01:08:47.100 Oh, yeah, huh?

01:08:48.100 Yeah.

01:08:48.740 But you weren't the gringo, though.

01:08:50.000 I was.

01:08:50.780 To them, huh?

01:08:51.620 Yeah.

01:08:52.420 Wow.

01:08:53.200 Dude, it's good.

01:08:53.600 I got white blood in me.

01:08:54.840 It's good.

01:08:55.180 Yeah, that's a good point, dude.

01:08:55.840 I say German blood, yeah?

01:08:57.040 Yeah, yeah.

01:08:57.920 Don't bring that fucking.

01:08:58.660 In the Irish.

01:08:59.660 Don't bring that honky blood around here, whitey.

01:09:03.200 That's the kind of shit that I hear all the time.

01:09:04.860 But they love me.

01:09:06.580 They did?

01:09:06.900 They did?

01:09:07.120 Yeah, I got two thumbs up.

01:09:08.900 Did you get a written review?

01:09:10.980 Or had it like on the plane ride home?

01:09:12.160 I could see it in their eyes.

01:09:13.360 Yeah.

01:09:13.580 And I could feel the temperature.

01:09:17.600 The aunties were cool with it.

01:09:19.520 The nieces and nephews love me.

01:09:21.460 The dad's amazing.

01:09:22.560 I mean, I love her dad.

01:09:24.100 We went to go see him play.

01:09:26.560 He's a musician?

01:09:27.980 He's probably one of the biggest Latin.

01:09:31.120 He maybe, no, he's definitely one of the biggest Latin musicians of all time.

01:09:34.600 Really?

01:09:35.120 Yeah, Ricardo Arjona.

01:09:36.980 Let's bring up a picture of this man.

01:09:38.580 He's actually, he's got.

01:09:39.580 This might be your father-in-law.

01:09:41.020 Yeah.

01:09:41.500 He's doing.

01:09:43.160 Or your stepdad.

01:09:44.000 Time Square, two nights in a row.

01:09:46.400 Ricardo Arjona.

01:09:47.400 Ricardo Arjona, yeah.

01:09:48.660 Seca is the new, his new tour.

01:09:51.340 Seca?

01:09:51.980 Yeah.

01:09:52.880 He's skinny.

01:09:54.080 Ooh, Ricardo Arjona.

01:09:56.660 Yeah.

01:09:57.220 God, I want to be something like that.

01:09:59.020 He kind of looks like my old brother, right?

01:10:01.360 You and him?

01:10:02.080 A little bit, right?

01:10:02.940 Oh, yeah.

01:10:03.600 You can see it.

01:10:04.340 That's what's up.

01:10:05.000 If I were Latin.

01:10:06.980 Yeah.

01:10:07.460 But I'm not, I'm Hawaiian.

01:10:09.040 And he's probably the biggest Guatemalan in history.

01:10:12.360 He's very tall?

01:10:13.300 He's like 6'5".

01:10:14.340 No way.

01:10:14.860 You can't even tell from this photo.

01:10:15.880 I know.

01:10:16.360 They should say that on the poster.

01:10:18.520 First of all, they should have a poster that says, hey, come see a 6'5 Guatemalan.

01:10:22.940 And he's, bro, he's.

01:10:24.380 Dude, I'd pay 40 bucks to go over and see that.

01:10:26.780 He's got two nights in a row at New York Times Square.

01:10:30.440 I think he'll be playing Nashville too, bro.

01:10:31.940 Really?

01:10:32.500 Yeah.

01:10:33.140 Dude, if he is, I'll make sure to go and watch him.

01:10:36.000 Yeah.

01:10:36.320 But he'd be right on the show too.

01:10:37.840 I'll take a Latin, I'll take a Spanish girl out there on a date.

01:10:42.380 You're definitely going to meet some Spanish nurses.

01:10:45.740 That's a place to go.

01:10:46.700 Yeah.

01:10:47.480 How do you say nurse in Spanish?

01:10:49.160 Bring that up for me, fellas.

01:10:51.840 Infermera.

01:10:52.800 Infermera?

01:10:53.560 Ooh, si.

01:10:55.620 Infermera.

01:10:57.480 Infermera.

01:10:58.300 Infermera.

01:10:58.940 That's what I'm going to say.

01:10:59.980 That's where it's at for you.

01:11:01.180 Yeah.

01:11:01.440 They take care of you, love you.

01:11:03.180 That's what I'm saying, dude.

01:11:04.020 Yeah, man.

01:11:04.720 Yeah.

01:11:05.240 Yeah, there were ages when I was like, yeah, I'm going to get, oh, I want to find a,

01:11:08.220 like a model or something.

01:11:10.140 But now it's like, and I'm getting older.

01:11:11.500 I'll take a nurse.

01:11:13.800 You've had all the models.

01:11:14.900 You know what I'm saying?

01:11:15.420 I don't know about that.

01:11:16.240 But I just have like, yeah, I'll just, you got to think ahead, you know?

01:11:20.380 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:11:21.100 You got to take care of me.

01:11:21.780 I don't know if models are going to take care of you, but nurses take care of you.

01:11:23.880 Dude, no, a model's not going to take care of you, dude.

01:11:26.500 And she's not going to feed you anything because she doesn't need anything.

01:11:30.480 What are you going to do?

01:11:31.040 Just both sit there and suck on an empty bottle together?

01:11:34.660 And she's lazy anyway, probably.

01:11:37.320 Anyway, sorry.

01:11:38.000 What about this guitar, dude?

01:11:41.800 I saw you brought this in.

01:11:42.820 Well, yeah, because we were both tired.

01:11:44.820 I was going to take a little nap because I didn't want to suck on your show.

01:11:47.560 I appreciate that, man.

01:11:48.360 Yeah, so I'm probably like a solid six right now.

01:11:51.140 I'm normally a tan.

01:11:52.880 But we had the premiere before I came to Theo Vaughn, which was a big accident.

01:11:57.600 So anyways, I was downstairs at Chelsea Guitars.

01:11:59.580 I found this.

01:12:00.080 It's a 59.

01:12:01.540 It kind of went like, got a little bit of that watermelon color to it.

01:12:04.360 Yeah, it's beautiful.

01:12:05.560 Because it's usually cherry, right?

01:12:06.820 Yeah.

01:12:07.340 And then it fades because of that paint that you used back then.

01:12:10.080 But it doesn't have the original pot, so it's kind of cheap.

01:12:12.740 And then, you know, I'll put some new pickups in it, and it'll be back to new.

01:12:19.800 Are you a collector of guitars?

01:12:21.200 I am.

01:12:21.720 I'm a big fan.

01:12:22.380 I got a band.

01:12:24.140 We're going to go play Dubai here on the 28th.

01:12:26.900 And look, too.

01:12:27.880 Really?

01:12:28.380 I forgot to show you.

01:12:28.880 Yeah.

01:12:30.320 I was in Dubai.

01:12:31.100 Sorry about that, brother.

01:12:31.500 No, I was in Qatar, actually.

01:12:33.440 Signed by Chuck Berry.

01:12:36.780 Yeah, they have all the guitars signed on there.

01:12:38.600 Who is it?

01:12:39.260 Chuck Berry.

01:12:40.060 The guy that was just up on the.

01:12:41.300 That's signed by Chuck Berry, dude?

01:12:42.520 Yeah.

01:12:42.720 Oh, that's him.

01:12:43.780 See, there's a guitar.

01:12:44.860 Johnny B. Goode.

01:12:45.820 There you go.

01:12:46.360 He used to carry his guitar in a row, say.

01:12:49.660 He's between the three by the railroad track.

01:12:51.840 I loved him, dude.

01:12:53.420 We used to listen to his tape all the time.

01:12:56.680 I had his cassette tape when I was young.

01:12:58.820 Actually, it might be a good idea.

01:12:59.840 My son loves Chuck Berry.

01:13:00.920 I might do him right.

01:13:03.420 When he turns 18, maybe I'll give him this guitar.

01:13:05.340 Just let him play it.

01:13:08.500 You keep it.

01:13:10.200 You know, he just booked a role in a movie next to you.

01:13:12.660 Like, he's doing fine, okay?

01:13:15.440 He can get his own.

01:13:16.040 My love language is presents.

01:13:17.620 He can get his own stuff now.

01:13:18.560 Are you?

01:13:19.020 I am, yeah.

01:13:19.780 Oh, that's pretty cool.

01:13:20.900 Yeah.

01:13:21.100 Oh, I heard that you were working with a water company.

01:13:25.980 Is that true?

01:13:26.460 Yeah, I started this company called Mananalu.

01:13:29.100 Mananalu?

01:13:29.680 Mananalu.

01:13:30.320 Started it eight years ago.

01:13:32.700 I was on a flight, and you know, you're flying over on the plane,

01:13:37.560 and you see a Coca-Cola in an aluminum can.

01:13:39.540 You got beer in an aluminum can.

01:13:40.960 You got sparkling water in an aluminum can,

01:13:42.440 and they give you those little shitty Dasani water bottles with a cap,

01:13:46.480 you know, the label, and then there's like three different types of plastic on it

01:13:50.360 that we can't recycle.

01:13:51.700 It just goes into our land.

01:13:52.820 It goes into our landfills, and I'm a father.

01:13:55.040 I don't want to see plastic.

01:13:56.140 We don't need single-use plastic.

01:13:57.880 Generally, I carry my own water bottle.

01:13:59.640 When I go to the airport, you fill it up.

01:14:01.780 Eight years ago, they didn't even make,

01:14:03.500 they didn't even have aluminum for water.

01:14:06.460 So I went to Ball, the people who make those cans,

01:14:11.100 and I went to the aluminum company.

01:14:12.480 I said, I'm going to make a water bottle with you,

01:14:14.940 a water out of aluminum cans.

01:14:16.720 They're like, we're not a, you know, we're not a, we're not a.

01:14:23.040 Is it?

01:14:23.600 A water company.

01:14:24.480 I was like, well, you are now.

01:14:25.600 I'm awful, man.

01:14:26.260 Let's do this.

01:14:27.640 So we set out to do it, and then we ended up making the first,

01:14:31.980 like, screw can.

01:14:33.680 It went back on.

01:14:34.460 And so we made Mananalo, and then it changed.

01:14:37.680 Well, now it's got our, we put our movie on there.

01:14:39.780 Oh, great.

01:14:40.120 So we put the labels on there.

01:14:41.680 But see how it's got Mananalo printed on the top?

01:14:43.640 And so once we kind of stopped single-use plastic,

01:14:47.660 and now, because at the time I went to Dasani,

01:14:50.240 and I went to the blue and the red guy, Coke and Pepsi,

01:14:52.600 and I was like, would you do this?

01:14:54.100 Would you make the aluminum there?

01:14:56.140 Like, it doesn't make sense to us,

01:14:57.400 because it's easier to do plastic.

01:14:59.040 But anything that's in plastic is just leeching in there.

01:15:01.500 It's just poison, man.

01:15:02.300 You don't want to be drinking out of plastic bottles, man.

01:15:05.040 Yeah, that's what I think about a lot of times,

01:15:06.200 especially now with people talking about all the bad stuff that's in our food

01:15:09.220 and our water.

01:15:09.960 It's become such a talking point right now.

01:15:14.520 Yeah, I thought a lot about how do you find water that isn't,

01:15:16.780 because most of the water is in plastic.

01:15:18.480 And even if you look up, like,

01:15:20.020 what's the best water that doesn't have plastics in it?

01:15:23.000 They won't even really tell you.

01:15:24.400 It's all these kind of gimmick videos that lead you to buy certain things,

01:15:27.520 usually to buy water purifiers and stuff.

01:15:29.120 Yeah, but I mean, the idea is just to go.

01:15:31.880 So now we kind of change it.

01:15:33.300 Now that there are making those, we made a circular system.

01:15:35.920 So we're now on on hollow powered by boomerang.

01:15:38.440 And it's actually, it's pretty cool, man.

01:15:40.920 Like the idea is to be in starting with Hawaii mainly is to be like in

01:15:46.960 hospitality.

01:15:47.500 So you're in hotels, hospitals, schools,

01:15:49.780 where you imagine just going to your room and you got a crate,

01:15:53.380 like a milk crate,

01:15:54.040 and there's all your water in there and you drink it and you put it back.

01:15:57.620 And then down in the basement, there's a machine.

01:15:59.900 It's a circular system.

01:16:01.160 It sterilizes it.

01:16:02.600 It fills it with your natural local water source and put some minerals back

01:16:06.840 into it and cleans it and mix it.

01:16:09.140 So it's fresh water.

01:16:09.860 It's not packaged up.

01:16:11.580 It's, there's no emissions.

01:16:12.540 It's not sitting in some crate and some warehouse in stagnant dead water.

01:16:17.420 It's fresh water always.

01:16:19.220 And if there was a COVID or anything like that each hotel would still operate

01:16:23.040 like the water still operates, right?

01:16:24.840 So you can still have fresh water and it's just bottled up.

01:16:28.120 Think of it as like, you go into a restaurant,

01:16:30.440 you eat with their plates and their fork and you're done.

01:16:33.040 You leave, you come back, you're going to use,

01:16:34.320 you're not going to take shit home.

01:16:35.800 You just, it's just a container for it.

01:16:37.380 And so it's constantly reusable and recyclable.

01:16:40.540 So you're cutting out waste.

01:16:41.880 Now the idea was just to cut waste.

01:16:44.000 So, cause even when you're having the aluminum bottles,

01:16:46.060 you still got to recycle those.

01:16:47.240 And so it's just, the idea is just to either,

01:16:50.260 if you're not carrying your own stuff,

01:16:51.420 it's pretty cool that you can go to a hotel and you know that it's,

01:16:54.480 it's, there's no, not only are you not doing waste,

01:16:56.800 it's getting recycled.

01:16:58.040 So it's a full circular system.

01:16:59.340 That's incredible, man.

01:17:00.120 Just to kind of get rid of the single,

01:17:01.480 I mean, just to call it shit down.

01:17:02.700 Cause it's just absolutely ridiculous.

01:17:04.220 Yeah.

01:17:04.360 When you think the idea of like taking shitty water,

01:17:07.320 putting it in plastic bottles,

01:17:08.340 shipping it to a place like Hawaii,

01:17:10.320 which has the best water in the world.

01:17:12.660 We drink it.

01:17:13.440 And then the shit ends up in our ocean or a landfill.

01:17:16.080 So it's the dumbest thing in the world.

01:17:18.280 I'm going to try to do that in Hawaii first.

01:17:20.140 So, I mean,

01:17:20.800 obviously we're self-contained plant Island earth.

01:17:24.160 We didn't need anyone.

01:17:24.960 We can, we were self-contained at one time.

01:17:26.420 So if we can just do that with all our tourism and people come from all over

01:17:30.700 the world,

01:17:31.060 getting married and they get to see what they're doing in each hotel.

01:17:33.340 So we have four C all different hotels,

01:17:35.260 four seasons and twin fan,

01:17:36.980 all these different places where it'll have their,

01:17:39.120 it'll have their label on it.

01:17:41.660 So it's, it's, it's still all there.

01:17:43.280 So their advertising is for them.

01:17:44.580 It's just, we're trying to stop the waste.

01:17:46.780 Yeah.

01:17:47.060 I love that.

01:17:47.680 Yeah.

01:17:47.940 When I even think about just how many bottles I like,

01:17:49.920 I probably drink seven bottles of water a day.

01:17:52.380 So that's seven empty, but it's like, that's just me.

01:17:54.700 That's ridiculous.

01:17:55.720 Oh bro.

01:17:56.240 It's just,

01:17:56.820 it's the most archaic thing that we're drinking.

01:17:59.160 I'm sorry.

01:17:59.720 Plastic bottles.

01:18:00.280 But I mean, so we were, we're doing it in a business side and eventually we'll

01:18:04.420 try to get it where, you know, we'll have depots for it.

01:18:06.440 But I mean,

01:18:06.700 the idea is to get people doing it because in every school kids can be doing

01:18:09.800 this.

01:18:10.240 I like the idea too that you can have your thing at home that you could just,

01:18:12.500 that would then be able to refill it.

01:18:14.280 I think, I think that's pretty novel.

01:18:15.500 Yeah.

01:18:18.040 Thanks buddy.

01:18:18.760 It's yeah.

01:18:19.100 It's Mononalo powered by boomerang.

01:18:20.620 You can check it out.

01:18:21.300 And that's, that's the goal is to, you know,

01:18:24.320 just another thing to try to fix in a very broken world.

01:18:27.620 And we don't need that pollution in our, in our oceans.

01:18:31.240 Aquaman, you heard it.

01:18:33.000 You heard it, man.

01:18:33.780 Have you ever been a lifeguard or not?

01:18:35.180 Yeah.

01:18:35.460 That's why my whole family are watermen.

01:18:36.740 Yeah.

01:18:37.000 They're all lifeguards.

01:18:38.320 Yeah.

01:18:38.720 I went to,

01:18:39.120 I went to junior lifeguards my whole life when I was growing up.

01:18:41.760 Dang.

01:18:42.120 That's like,

01:18:42.700 I wish I could be a lifeguard.

01:18:45.580 It's pretty cool when you save someone's life.

01:18:47.040 I've saved a person's life before.

01:18:48.280 You did?

01:18:48.760 In the ocean.

01:18:49.280 Yeah.

01:18:50.040 And it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,

01:18:51.440 when you do junior lifeguards,

01:18:52.560 it's really cool to, to really take your time.

01:18:54.640 Things slow down.

01:18:55.200 And I'm sure it's probably like a firefighter.

01:18:56.680 Like I'd panic in a fire,

01:18:57.700 but I think if I saw so many of them,

01:18:59.100 I practiced, you know,

01:19:00.640 most people go, Oh shit.

01:19:01.860 And then they, they, they freak out.

01:19:03.860 Whereas the natural calm come kind of comes over you and you just like assess the whole situation.

01:19:07.800 So you can both get out alive.

01:19:09.580 You understand the rip.

01:19:10.640 You understand what the ocean's doing.

01:19:11.960 And you had to save somebody.

01:19:13.300 Yeah.

01:19:13.820 Yeah.

01:19:13.980 Was that in Hawaii?

01:19:14.720 Yeah.

01:19:15.560 Wow.

01:19:16.100 But I mean, it's just the,

01:19:17.560 I'm like I said,

01:19:18.460 I've been many times like drowned.

01:19:20.280 I mean,

01:19:20.480 it can,

01:19:21.040 you get cut,

01:19:21.600 you get caught in a rip.

01:19:22.900 Yes.

01:19:23.340 You,

01:19:23.640 it's taking you out.

01:19:24.540 You're not going to beat the ocean and you can literally be,

01:19:27.680 I mean,

01:19:28.020 I've been at pipeline,

01:19:30.380 at least snapped and I'm literally eight feet from the shore,

01:19:35.020 but it's like a river going by and you're swimming,

01:19:37.800 trying to get in like it's eight feet and you're just getting burned out.

01:19:40.700 Yeah.

01:19:41.040 And you're like,

01:19:41.780 there are cameras everywhere.

01:19:42.820 There are people right there.

01:19:43.540 I could yell for help.

01:19:44.280 And I look like an idiot.

01:19:45.940 I'm going to drown in eight feet of water.

01:19:47.700 Yeah.

01:19:48.100 And it's the current.

01:19:49.480 So it's just the undertow is just pulling your feet out and it's going to

01:19:53.100 exhaust you.

01:19:54.260 And it generally has got to go with it.

01:19:56.060 It's going to take you out to sea and it'll dump you back in.

01:19:58.120 But that's the thing.

01:19:59.960 Everyone drowns like that.

01:20:01.000 It's just,

01:20:01.380 you got to watch out for the rips.

01:20:02.420 They'll go jumping into the fucking ocean.

01:20:03.980 And then if you see a sign,

01:20:05.700 don't go in.

01:20:06.960 That's why,

01:20:07.500 I mean,

01:20:08.440 don't be stupid.

01:20:09.160 You're like the Yogi bear of the ocean kind of remember him.

01:20:13.660 Oh,

01:20:13.920 I do.

01:20:14.700 You put out those fires,

01:20:15.740 kids.

01:20:16.060 Yeah,

01:20:16.260 dude,

01:20:16.500 put them out.

01:20:17.200 You know what I'm saying?

01:20:17.780 I know.

01:20:18.180 He was so adamant.

01:20:19.280 He was talking to me the other day.

01:20:20.340 I built a fire and I was like,

01:20:21.360 that's,

01:20:21.960 everything's green around here.

01:20:23.520 Yogi was?

01:20:24.200 Yeah.

01:20:24.460 In my head.

01:20:25.040 Cause you guys were psychos,

01:20:26.780 but I was like,

01:20:27.320 listen,

01:20:27.920 I could dump out.

01:20:28.840 Oh,

01:20:29.320 smoky,

01:20:29.920 the bear,

01:20:30.400 dude.

01:20:31.060 Sorry.

01:20:32.220 Who did I say?

01:20:34.160 Who's Yogi bear?

01:20:35.420 Yogi bear.

01:20:38.280 He's starting the fires.

01:20:39.760 God,

01:20:43.260 he's probably on suboxone or whatever by now.

01:20:45.320 Oh yeah.

01:20:45.680 He's not doing well.

01:20:46.660 I think he was a stepdad too.

01:20:47.880 You can tell by his outfit.

01:20:50.220 You can tell by that outfit.

01:20:51.340 He was definitely trying to meet a lady that already had kids probably too.

01:20:57.940 Not like the Bernstein bear where he was locked in.

01:21:00.160 Yeah.

01:21:00.440 Yeah.

01:21:00.580 He was just a dumb dad.

01:21:01.780 That guy was a family man.

01:21:02.860 He was,

01:21:03.380 he was.

01:21:04.100 Yeah.

01:21:04.280 Bernstein was a family.

01:21:04.980 I love me some Bernstein.

01:21:06.400 God,

01:21:06.680 they were good.

01:21:07.640 Especially like the fall issues.

01:21:08.840 There's always,

01:21:09.220 I always got snuggled down when I read those ones.

01:21:11.420 And the skip one.

01:21:12.180 Remember there was that one scary book where one of them,

01:21:13.860 there was a fire or whatever.

01:21:14.820 And people were like,

01:21:15.560 no,

01:21:16.720 no fires in the Bernstein bears.

01:21:18.840 And people flipped out and shit.

01:21:20.500 Oh really?

01:21:21.200 Yeah,

01:21:21.580 dude.

01:21:21.800 People just cannot handle real shit.

01:21:24.600 That's the kind of thing I'm talking about.

01:21:26.020 Was there ever,

01:21:26.620 was there a,

01:21:27.000 was there a time in a movie where you were training for something?

01:21:28.860 It was like one of the toughest things you ever had to actually train for,

01:21:31.580 or does it never go that far with training?

01:21:35.240 Yeah.

01:21:35.620 I mean,

01:21:36.260 training for,

01:21:38.020 training for Aquaman was pretty,

01:21:42.600 was pretty challenging.

01:21:46.960 I'd have to say maybe the,

01:21:50.820 yeah,

01:21:51.760 I'd say probably Aquaman is probably the hardest I've ever had to train.

01:21:54.260 I'm not a very like,

01:21:55.280 I'm not like a gym rat.

01:21:57.220 I just like to do things,

01:21:58.600 rock climbing,

01:21:59.260 you know,

01:21:59.480 go surfing and things like that.

01:22:00.480 But actually like get,

01:22:01.760 you do that for a role.

01:22:02.980 I don't necessarily like,

01:22:04.320 you're not in there getting pumped every day,

01:22:05.540 like a maniac or taking SARMs.

01:22:07.300 No,

01:22:07.420 I just want to do the things I love to do.

01:22:08.980 Yeah.

01:22:09.280 Yeah.

01:22:09.480 But I'm,

01:22:10.200 yeah.

01:22:10.460 You know,

01:22:31.980 I'm getting fat.

01:22:34.080 And then I'm getting divorced too.

01:22:38.420 I can't wait to get divorced.

01:22:42.060 What else?

01:22:42.560 So people should go see the wrecking crew.
