00:02:43.920 Big fan.
00:02:44.600 He told me if you wear a hat, I wear a hat.
00:02:46.600 Really?
00:02:46.900 Okay, I'll go-
00:02:47.700 No, no, you said you're going to wear the hat.
00:02:49.240 You know what's cool about this show?
00:02:52.500 Because I was thinking about, you're the rat, right?
00:02:55.680 Uh-huh.
00:02:56.000 Is that what-
00:02:56.700 And you are the weasel.
00:02:59.720 The weasel, bro.
00:03:01.020 Oh!
00:03:02.280 The rat and the what?
00:03:03.720 And the weasel.
00:03:04.540 What do you think?
00:03:05.220 So, Depey, I was going to ask you this.
00:03:06.920 You know, I was coming here, and I've known you for a long time.
00:03:09.600 I haven't sat down with you yet.
00:03:11.020 You know, and I always say this to comedians that are doing really well.
00:03:13.620 Like, I've been in the business my whole life.
00:03:16.020 Like, I have.
00:03:16.640 I mean, since I was little, little, little.
00:03:18.700 I watched so many guys, you know, come up.
00:03:21.060 I mean, Tony Hinchcliffe now, and different guys like yourself.
00:03:24.600 And I'm so-
00:03:25.340 And I'm not just saying this to get on your dick or any of that shit.
00:03:27.860 I'm really happy for you.
00:03:29.100 And I've said that to you before, and I know how hard it is.
00:03:32.040 Take it in.
00:03:32.680 I know it's hard to let love in, isn't it?
00:03:34.540 Yeah.
00:03:34.860 It's hard to let love in.
00:03:36.300 But it's coming from Pauly Shore.
00:03:38.020 I'm very happy for you, for real.
00:03:39.760 Thank you.
00:03:40.240 You know, I know how hard you've worked.
00:03:41.760 I know how hard you've done this,
00:03:43.640 and how it's just kind of taken off for you.
00:03:46.160 So I see your Instagrams,
00:03:47.920 and I see all these people that you're playing in front of,
00:03:50.280 and I'm very, very happy for you because it's fucking awesome.
00:03:53.640 Thanks, man.
00:03:54.060 I mean, it's fucking like, you know, it's pretty cool.
00:03:56.780 You always have something kind of supportive to say or inquire when I see you.
00:04:00.620 Yeah.
00:04:00.780 And so I want to say I appreciate that, man.
00:04:03.380 Yeah, and I appreciate you appreciating me.
00:04:05.200 All right.
00:04:06.600 I appreciate you appreciating me.
00:04:08.060 You said, go on?
00:04:09.700 No, no, no.
00:04:11.200 Gesture, what's up?
00:04:11.960 I think we should take our hats off now.
00:04:13.960 Okay, hats off.
00:04:14.640 You know what I mean?
00:04:15.280 Hats off.
00:04:15.420 Get a little, yeah.
00:04:16.020 Because it's the rat and the weasel, bro.
00:04:19.160 Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, Chinese.
00:04:22.340 The hair looks good, man.
00:04:23.420 Thank you.
00:04:23.800 Looks great, actually.
00:04:24.620 Thank you.
00:04:24.840 I was with Gary Shanley's hairdresser.
00:04:26.940 He set it up for me, so that's good stuff.
00:04:30.800 Dude, when you said, yeah, you have a tough time letting love in, that's true, huh?
00:04:34.040 Yeah, very much so, which is why I'm single.
00:04:36.740 Which is why I'm sure you're single.
00:04:38.380 Yeah.
00:04:38.800 You know what I mean?
00:04:39.360 Because, yeah, women like us, most women like us because we've been on TV and movies
00:04:43.860 or they've seen us on our thing.
00:04:45.440 Like, oh, my God, I love Biodome.
00:04:46.680 I love the squirrely rat, whatever your fucking shit is on the stage.
00:04:50.220 The bad pigeon, yeah.
00:04:51.060 The bad pigeon, you know what I mean?
00:04:52.360 But then after that, you're a human being and you're a person with a brain, a heart,
00:04:56.480 a smile, all that shit.
00:04:57.860 And at the end of the day, you don't know if they're liking you for the rat.
00:05:01.620 Let me see the rat tail.
00:05:02.720 Let me see that.
00:05:03.320 Throw that shit out in the back.
00:05:04.940 Yeah, that fucking rat shit.
00:05:06.100 That's tight ass shit.
00:05:06.880 I pull this out on Easter sometimes.
00:05:08.220 And I've actually, we did this, I'm thinking about getting like a half inch extension on
00:05:11.900 this part.
00:05:12.240 It's very Bon Jovi back in 1987, dude.
00:05:15.600 It's very.
00:05:17.600 First song I ever listened to was Bon Jovi.
00:05:19.360 For real, is it hard to let love in?
00:05:21.420 Yeah.
00:05:21.640 I don't think it's hard for me to notice who is appropriate for me to love, but I think
00:05:26.600 it's hard for me to feel like, it's just somebody could sit there and tell you, man, I really
00:05:31.440 love you.
00:05:32.360 And I'd be like, all right, buddy, let's keep it.
00:05:35.180 Let's keep it.
00:05:36.400 Or woman.
00:05:37.080 It's hopefully it's a woman.
00:05:38.020 Woman.
00:05:38.300 All right, woman.
00:05:38.980 Let's keep it moving here.
00:05:40.260 You know?
00:05:40.560 It's just hard for me to like, I just.
00:05:42.400 Yeah.
00:05:42.800 I also think that.
00:05:44.040 My receptors are bad.
00:05:44.860 I think that once people get over the fact that you're who, you know, the celebrity
00:05:48.980 and all that stuff, then you're stuck with you as a human.
00:05:51.700 And then at the end of the day, like, that's really what it's about.
00:05:54.640 You know what I mean?
00:05:54.980 Do you want to hang out?
00:05:55.860 Do you want to go get sushi?
00:05:56.840 Do you want to go fuck around?
00:05:58.380 You know what I mean?
00:05:58.900 Right.
00:05:59.480 Well, I think sometimes this is interesting, Pauly.
00:06:01.480 And I think it's like, well, sometimes I wonder if like by getting some pop, by creating
00:06:10.300 a life or aiming for some level of popularity, if you're really trying to create.
00:06:14.860 An ambiance or create something between you and other people that gives you a barrier.
00:06:21.980 You know what I'm saying?
00:06:22.540 Does that make any sense?
00:06:23.540 Yeah.
00:06:24.360 Yeah.
00:06:24.620 Yeah.
00:06:24.780 Because they see the persona and they think that you're the persona.
00:06:27.960 Like sometimes I was with this girl.
00:06:29.300 Like I'll create it so you never even have to know the real me.
00:06:32.160 And maybe I don't even know the real me.
00:06:33.920 But I'm going to.
00:06:34.780 But so I'm going to make this.
00:06:36.760 And hopefully you'll like this.
00:06:38.020 Yeah.
00:06:38.160 Because.
00:06:38.580 Yeah.
00:06:38.780 Because what happened was is about three months ago, I met this girl on the road.
00:06:42.440 I think it was in Iowa with my uncle.
00:06:44.500 Yeah.
00:06:44.720 Yeah.
00:06:45.000 Yeah.
00:06:45.200 And I met this girl and she loves son-in-law.
00:06:47.180 This movie I did a long time ago, son-in-law.
00:06:49.180 And she wouldn't have sex with me unless I put on my chaps and I put in my hair because
00:06:53.800 I used to have long hair.
00:06:55.120 So in order for me to have sex with her, guess what I had to do?
00:06:57.940 Put it on.
00:06:58.600 Put it on.
00:06:59.360 Wow.
00:06:59.820 Yeah.
00:07:00.100 And then I had to go like do all this shit like that.
00:07:02.700 And then once I orgasm, then I take the shit off and I left.
00:07:05.820 I felt bad.
00:07:06.480 I wound up at Waffle House by myself at the end of the night crying with a fucking tear.
00:07:10.700 Yeah.
00:07:11.480 Oh, yeah.
00:07:12.120 I think if you have to dress up to have sex, it's probably going to get, yeah, I would
00:07:15.640 cry after it.
00:07:16.300 I don't know if I can do this right now.
00:07:18.140 Okay.
00:07:23.000 I'm all right.
00:07:24.380 Okay.
00:07:24.620 I'm all right.
00:07:25.080 Thank you.
00:07:25.860 No, I'm here for you, man.
00:07:27.040 Yeah.
00:07:28.140 And I'm here to, and I'm happy to see you today.
00:07:29.960 You know what?
00:07:30.480 You know what?
00:07:30.840 I saw Kid Rock on this right here and I have something to fucking say to you, motherfucking
00:07:34.900 Kid Rock.
00:07:35.480 Tell him, dude.
00:07:36.060 First of all, don't disrespect Theo Vaughn the whole time you're wearing this and fucking
00:07:40.600 this, dude.
00:07:41.860 You're wearing this and this.
00:07:44.000 What the fuck, bro?
00:07:45.160 You come to LA, you got to show your pretty face.
00:07:48.300 No, I'm just kidding.
00:07:49.740 No, I love Kid Rock.
00:07:51.040 Kid Rock, what's up, bro?
00:07:52.340 Did you ever, where was the first time you met him?
00:07:54.740 Dude, that's a fucking hilarious story.
00:07:57.220 For real.
00:07:58.780 Kid Rock, what's up?
00:08:00.020 I haven't seen you since probably, no.
00:08:02.580 No, what do you mean?
00:08:03.460 I used to go on tour.
00:08:04.300 I used to go on tour with this guy.
00:08:05.760 You don't even fucking know.
00:08:07.320 Wally barely remembers him, bro.
00:08:09.020 No, I used to go on tour with this guy when he had his little, his little, the little,
00:08:13.300 the dwarf, the kid.
00:08:14.540 Oh, yeah.
00:08:14.900 What was that guy's name, Magic Baby?
00:08:16.760 No, JC.
00:08:19.780 Oh, yeah, JC.
00:08:20.680 Yeah, JC.
00:08:21.760 Bring him up.
00:08:22.460 Oh, yeah, Joe.
00:08:23.100 And also, Uncle Cracker was his DJ.
00:08:25.400 Yeah.
00:08:25.760 Is he still his DJ?
00:08:27.060 No, Uncle Cracker does perform with him sometimes, but Uncle Cracker is on tour right now, I think,
00:08:31.580 with Kenny Chesney, actually.
00:08:33.760 Yeah.
00:08:34.580 So this is when I found.
00:08:35.740 It was JC right there.
00:08:36.320 So this is.
00:08:36.740 And the C was for cancer, wasn't it?
00:08:37.980 What happened to him?
00:08:39.440 He just partied a lot.
00:08:40.680 He was like in the mini, he was partying with like mini me and like, you know, that whole
00:08:43.960 crew.
00:08:44.240 Yeah, this is like, yeah.
00:08:45.720 They called him Andy Pilonakis.
00:08:48.840 People would call him because he would do like a lot of pills.
00:08:50.800 Yeah.
00:08:51.520 So what happened, so the first time I met JC and Kid Rock and all this stuff, it was fucking
00:08:58.060 crazy.
00:08:58.780 Have your guy pull up Conan O'Brien, Limp Bizkit, I think it was late 90s, Pauly Shore, Kid
00:09:05.580 Rock, and fucking Limp Bizkit, Conan O'Brien.
00:09:07.960 So I'm with Fred, because this is when Fred started on MTV.
00:09:11.200 I had been on MTV for a long time.
00:09:13.100 I was kind of sad.
00:09:14.060 I was going through this kind of transition part.
00:09:15.800 It's kind of when I did my movie Pauly Shore is Dead.
00:09:18.140 I know that Tommy Lee was on here recently, who was in Pauly Shore is Dead.
00:09:21.800 I've known Tommy for a long time.
00:09:23.780 And we went to Conan O'Brien, and Fred was performing, I think it was Faith.
00:09:30.280 You know, he was the George Michael song, Faith, off of one of his albums.
00:09:34.360 And me and Kid Rock went with Fred, and we're in the fucking background on Conan O'Brien.
00:09:39.560 Do you have it?
00:09:40.280 Do we have it?
00:09:40.320 I know it's there.
00:09:41.120 I know it's fucking there.
00:09:42.640 It's there somewhere.
00:09:43.760 There it is.
00:09:44.620 Look at it.
00:09:45.520 This is fucking triple, triple.
00:09:47.200 Look at this.
00:09:47.920 Wow.

00:10:05.560 What's up, motherfucker Fred?
00:10:07.560 Out there killing it on the road right now.
00:10:09.980 And I guess it would be nice.
00:10:11.440 Oh, look how young he is.
00:10:12.760 And I'm talking at your body.
00:10:15.400 I know that everybody's got a body like you.
00:10:19.800 And I gotta think it twice before I get you out of the way.
00:10:28.280 So this is where I first met Kid Rock.
00:10:30.140 Look at him.
00:10:30.740 That's Kid Rock right there, isn't he?
00:10:30.960 In the background.
00:10:32.840 I think I'm wearing the hood, I think.
00:10:34.680 Yeah, that's me in the hood, I think.
00:10:36.860 Oh yeah, see, boom.
00:10:37.640 Oh yeah, that's you and him.
00:10:38.440 That's why Kid Rock's my fucking boy.
00:10:40.560 What's up, Kid Rock?
00:10:42.180 Triple, triple, quadruple OG.
00:10:44.580 I'll see you on Lake Michigan.
00:10:45.880 We'll drink some fucking beers.
00:10:47.920 Gang, bro.
00:10:48.580 Yeah, so that was pretty cool.
00:10:50.080 I'll see you up there in Charlevoix, baby.
00:10:52.240 That's where they party.
00:10:53.120 Have you been up there?
00:10:53.880 I was in Lake Michigan for this last 4th of July.
00:10:57.260 I was in Pentwater.
00:10:58.440 Is it nice?
00:10:59.080 Pentwater was beautiful, yeah.
00:11:00.560 Because I was born and raised in LA around the store.
00:11:03.920 And right there in West Hollywood and shit my whole life.
00:11:07.160 And this last 4th of July, I'm like, I don't want to be in Vegas.
00:11:13.380 I don't want to be in fucking Malibu.
00:11:15.220 I want to go to middle America.
00:11:17.320 I want to see people with Trump flags.
00:11:19.500 Yeah.
00:11:19.660 You know what I mean?
00:11:20.120 I want to go out there on the fucking, on Lake Michigan.
00:11:22.780 So I got a...
00:11:23.780 You don't want to piss on a big girl's back out there.
00:11:26.560 Yeah.
00:11:27.060 You know what I'm saying, dude?
00:11:27.980 Yeah, and I got an Airbnb right on the water with my friends.
00:11:32.400 And I played at a club there, a small little bar.
00:11:35.700 It was fucking sick.
00:11:36.920 And we were in Pentwater, Michigan.
00:11:38.440 Yeah, that's cool.
00:11:38.780 And I was looking for Kid Rock.
00:11:39.760 It was cool.
00:11:40.220 Have you ever been to Lake Michigan?
00:11:42.100 I don't think I have.
00:11:43.340 I would definitely go.
00:11:44.440 It's dope, dude.
00:11:45.240 Next summer, I'm going to go.
00:11:46.240 It's huge.
00:11:46.640 It's huge.
00:11:47.120 We'll just do it next summer.
00:11:48.320 Yeah, I would love to.
00:11:48.780 Fucking 4th of July.
00:11:49.980 Do a show up there somewhere.
00:11:51.120 It's awesome, dude.
00:11:52.060 Did you do the show on the 4th or no?
00:11:53.960 No.
00:11:54.160 No, I took the 4th off.
00:11:55.380 Yeah.
00:11:56.020 I just watched Fireworks.
00:11:57.140 But I did like five nights there and it was great.
00:12:00.100 Did you get out on the water?
00:12:01.480 I went on the water.
00:12:02.200 Yeah, of course.
00:12:02.920 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:12:03.500 Nice.
00:12:03.880 Yeah, it was cool.
00:12:04.640 When you were a kid, like, I mean, you famously, you grew up around the comedy store.
00:12:07.740 Your mother was the owner and your father was the owner.
00:12:09.860 Mm-hmm.
00:12:11.180 And your family still owns it.
00:12:12.860 Yes.
00:12:13.300 Yeah.
00:12:13.700 Yes.
00:12:15.000 And did you guys ever go on family vacations?
00:12:18.860 Well, my dad, Sammy Shore, the late, great Sammy Shore.
00:12:22.480 Give it up for my father.
00:12:23.200 Let's put a picture of my dad, Sammy Shore.
00:12:25.020 Bring a picture of him up.
00:12:25.640 And I'll say this.
00:12:26.320 I want to say this about him before we move.
00:12:27.680 Sammy, I got to meet him.
00:12:29.680 Oh.
00:12:30.200 And we would talk sometimes about, this is interesting.
00:12:33.320 He wanted to make, like, a show about dogs, right?
00:12:36.200 Yes.
00:12:36.760 And so, he would call every now and then, and we would talk about this show about dogs.
00:12:41.840 Yeah.
00:12:42.060 And his neighbor's dogs and his friend's dogs.
00:12:44.360 And it was, that was my only-
00:12:45.720 It was called Funny Bones.
00:12:46.900 I don't know.
00:12:47.460 Yeah, Funny Bones.
00:12:48.260 Yeah, he did it.
00:12:48.920 He wound up doing it.
00:12:49.680 Did he really?
00:12:50.160 Yeah, he did.
00:12:50.800 He did some episodes, yeah.
00:12:52.020 Oh, because it was just interesting.
00:12:54.180 That was the only way that I knew him.
00:12:56.800 He was, you know, I love my mom.
00:13:00.020 My mom was the best.
00:13:01.220 Not only was she a great, you know, developing the comedians and artistic and all that stuff,
00:13:05.960 but as a mom, she was fucking-
00:13:07.320 Mitzi Shore.
00:13:08.080 Yeah, but she was a real mom.
00:13:09.680 Was she really?
00:13:10.440 Yeah, dude.
00:13:11.100 She took care of me.
00:13:12.280 She was not, like, weird or, like, just because she was busy at the comedy store, she went there
00:13:16.400 for my birthdays and all that stuff.
00:13:18.500 You know, she did the whole thing.
00:13:19.420 We had slip and slides.
00:13:20.800 We had trampolines in the back.
00:13:23.200 I had a moped, all that shit.
00:13:24.620 Did she like being a mom, you think?
00:13:26.200 Yeah, she was cool.
00:13:27.180 She was a natural mom, but my father, you know, he started the store.
00:13:33.960 You know, he started, there it is, Funny Bones.
00:13:36.800 Yeah, but he started the store because he needed a place to work out his stand-up, kind of like
00:13:40.080 Joe at the mothership.
00:13:41.940 You know, Joe was like, he's like, I need a place to work out.
00:13:44.580 I go out to the mothership and I have a club, so that was kind of his vibe.
00:13:48.120 Do you see that when you go to the mothership now?
00:13:50.400 Do you feel some of that same energy almost in a weird way?
00:13:52.740 Yeah, I definitely feel my mom there.
00:13:55.180 I feel my parents there.
00:13:56.060 Yeah, for sure.
00:13:57.100 You know, it's great.
00:13:57.840 I mean, he's got Bar Mitzi's and all that stuff.
00:14:00.420 And Joe's, you know, it's weird when I see the guy, I start crying.
00:14:03.800 I always fucking cry when I see him.
00:14:05.400 There's like an emotional connection that I have with him.
00:14:08.220 It's fucking weird.
00:14:09.780 You know?
00:14:10.200 It's funny you say that.
00:14:11.060 That happens to me sometimes.
00:14:12.080 When I'm talking with Joey Diaz, sometimes that happens with me.
00:14:15.160 It's like, it just like, I don't know, I'll think some things about his life or something
00:14:20.120 and I'll, I don't know what it is, but my eyes will well up, you know?
00:14:25.520 Yeah.
00:14:26.060 And Joey Diaz is, yeah, all those guys.
00:14:27.820 And Holtzman's doing great.
00:14:29.100 Yeah.
00:14:29.740 Holtzman's doing great.
00:14:30.860 And I tell him, I'm like, don't leave the mothership.
00:14:33.680 You know, just stay at the fucking mothership.
00:14:35.780 You're funny.
00:14:36.460 You're going to hit.
00:14:37.100 Because, you know, he wants to make it like Dave Lucas and fucking, and Cam and Montgomery
00:14:43.040 and all these guys that are, you know, that were on Tony.
00:14:45.340 All the guys on Kill Tony.
00:14:45.400 On Tony.
00:14:46.200 Yeah.
00:14:46.500 And I'm like, dude, just hang in there.
00:14:48.080 You're fucking great.
00:14:49.060 And now he's starting to sell tickets.
00:14:50.480 So if there's anyone out there that wants to see a crazy motherfucking comedian, Brian
00:14:54.180 Holtzman is fucking awesome from the mothership.
00:14:56.720 And we love him so much.
00:14:58.000 One of a kind, dude.
00:14:59.060 Brian would get up.
00:15:00.160 This is one of my favorite Brian Holtzman stories.
00:15:02.840 So when Jeff, Piano Jeff, died of COVID or HIV, right?
00:15:10.920 You could take your pick.
00:15:11.860 He might have died of HIV OVID, right?
00:15:15.480 I mean, he had something he had, you know.
00:15:18.320 And if you don't know him, Jeff Scott, bring up a picture of him.
00:15:22.380 A beautiful man.
00:15:23.380 And he got HIV in Connecticut a long time ago.
00:15:28.880 Prince, Princeton, Princeton.
00:15:30.280 Yeah.
00:15:30.520 It was like a hot gay district.
00:15:32.040 He told me about it.
00:15:33.580 And he always took a whole bunch of pills.
00:15:37.040 And yeah, and he was always partying and just, you know, he was always, you know, too
00:15:40.480 Well, no, I wasn't saying party pills, like HIV pills.
00:15:43.380 Oh, he was?
00:15:43.780 I was always, yeah, he always had like a fistful of HIV pills.
00:15:46.200 Okay, well, I think so.
00:15:48.520 No, pills like, you know what I mean?
00:15:50.480 That make him feel better.
00:15:51.640 Right, well.
00:15:52.680 That are supposed to support AIDS.
00:15:54.500 You know, the kind that Magic Johnson has, I'm sure.
00:15:56.180 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:15:56.820 Those type of pills.
00:15:57.460 Those Laker snacks, they call them that.
00:15:59.420 Yeah.
00:15:59.920 Right?
00:16:00.520 Because I think, yeah, the Lakers sponsor them now.
00:16:03.040 I think we should put our hats on.
00:16:03.940 Okay.
00:16:04.320 You know what I mean?
00:16:04.800 We can mix it up.
00:16:05.460 Oh, yeah, sure.
00:16:05.580 Because we got Gary Shanley hair.
00:16:07.040 Yeah, yeah, it's that time of day.
00:16:09.340 Okay.
00:16:10.000 But he would also, in between taking pills.
00:16:12.120 What does it say?
00:16:12.140 In 1986, I was diagnosed with HIV.
00:16:14.900 I was diagnosed with an HIV.
00:16:15.540 And Cole told you, you have two years to live.
00:16:16.940 Here's a fan flip with some information.
00:16:18.740 Good luck.
00:16:19.320 Yeah, and he's, yeah.
00:16:20.340 He lived forever.
00:16:21.800 Yeah.
00:16:22.260 And now, yeah.
00:16:23.000 And this was, he had to take 20 pills a day, he said right there.
00:16:25.640 Now, he also was doing cocaine, right?
00:16:28.680 So, part-time or whatever, semi-part-time.
00:16:31.980 But anyway, bless him, no judgment.
00:16:33.520 None of this is judgment.
00:16:34.460 But, so, they had a call during COVID where it was a funeral.
00:16:39.360 It was his funeral over Zoom.
00:16:40.500 It was a Zoom, Zoom mural, right?
00:16:42.400 Or whatever they called them.
00:16:43.820 And so, we're on there and people are crying and, you know, Whitney was, like, wearing a
00:16:50.180 kimono and wandering around her mansion or whatever, you know?
00:16:52.900 And, like, just, there was 75 people on there and his, Jeff's sister was on there and she
00:16:57.360 would speak.
00:16:58.040 And every now and then, Brian Holtzman.
00:17:01.500 Oh, that's fucking hilarious.
00:17:02.680 Would chime in and go, he had AIDS, people!
00:17:07.660 Right, right, right, right.
00:17:08.200 He had AIDS.
00:17:10.780 And people are, everybody would die laughing, bro.
00:17:15.900 Yeah.
00:17:16.240 He was the Harvey Milk of our time!
00:17:19.540 Just, Holton would just throw in these, like, it was a pure comedy set and it was just one
00:17:24.900 of, like, it was that thing where it's, like, laugh at the pain, you know?
00:17:29.320 And it was just unprecedented.
00:17:31.200 But, yeah, it's great to see him thriving over there.
00:17:32.780 Yeah, his style is, you know, it's an acquired taste.
00:17:39.480 Oh, it's good.
00:17:40.080 You know, it's an acquired taste.
00:17:41.360 You know, he does a lot of these videos where he'll film people leaving his show.
00:17:45.940 Have you seen that?
00:17:46.760 Mm-mm.
00:17:47.200 It's fucking hilarious because there's a lot of people that leave his show.
00:17:49.640 Oh, yeah.
00:17:50.140 You know what I mean?
00:17:50.400 They get pissed off.
00:17:51.380 So they film it and they're like, people are like, that guy's fucking disgusting.
00:17:55.100 I'm going to call the club.
00:17:56.620 Really?
00:17:56.980 Put one of those videos up where Holtzman just clears a room.
00:18:02.980 He clears a room, dude.
00:18:04.380 He had AIDS.
00:18:05.700 He had AIDS.
00:18:06.440 I mean, the guy's, Jeff's sister was crying and he put that in.
00:18:09.700 Turn it up.
00:18:13.880 What's that?
00:18:14.540 What did he say?
00:18:15.420 Why can't you lose this?
00:18:16.900 Look.
00:18:18.120 What did he say?
00:18:18.920 He's pretty, he's pretty, he's, pretty, he's, you, you want, you, you, he's, he's, he's what?
00:18:27.480 Too much.
00:18:30.120 That guy is, look at, like, he's self, like, he's too much.
00:18:34.840 What the fuck are you talking about?
00:18:36.720 You can't with the 40-ish group?
00:18:39.360 Yeah.
00:18:39.580 You can't.
00:18:40.260 I'm a fucking teacher.
00:18:42.000 That is not for me.
00:18:44.300 No, thank you.
00:18:45.900 Fuck you and fuck him.
00:18:47.960 My family will pay our bills.
00:18:50.320 Don't worry.
00:18:51.040 Someone has to represent a generation.
00:18:53.840 It's not you.
00:18:55.260 Fuck him.
00:18:56.180 And at the 40-ish group, everyone's paying the bills now.
00:18:59.880 You guys got to go see him.
00:19:01.220 Okay, there you go.
00:19:01.900 I mean, it's basically, he walks a lot of people.
00:19:04.340 Hold on, let's see.
00:19:04.860 This is five minutes later.
00:19:05.680 Oh, five minutes later.
00:19:05.700 Look what happened.
00:19:07.520 This guy's fucking talking about fucking.
00:19:10.600 Oh, fuck that.
00:19:11.600 Use your words.
00:19:12.740 No, seriously, what did he say?
00:19:14.020 No, honestly, you're fucking lying.
00:19:16.560 Oh, fuck him.
00:19:18.380 Did you guys pay for that bill?
00:19:20.080 No, fuck that shit.
00:19:21.600 Give me my fucking money, you motherfucker.
00:19:24.720 Wow.
00:19:25.500 Yeah.
00:19:26.560 That's classic.
00:19:27.620 I didn't know they do this.
00:19:28.380 They have to keep doing more of this.
00:19:30.040 Yeah.
00:19:30.540 But anyways, but it's a good time for comedy, man.
00:19:33.060 It is.
00:19:33.400 It's fucking crazy, dude.
00:19:34.580 It's crazy.
00:19:34.940 When I was growing up, you know, it was five guys that were selling out the rooms that you
00:19:40.240 guys sell out.
00:19:41.220 Is that true?
00:19:42.080 Yeah, that's true.
00:19:43.360 You had Dice, you had Eddie Murphy, like three or four other guys.
00:19:46.560 Who?
00:19:46.720 And now there's a lot of fucking guys.
00:19:48.680 Like, the rooms you play, it's insane.
00:19:50.800 Oh, yeah, it's crazy now.
00:19:51.440 It's fucking insane.
00:19:52.280 I can't even believe it.
00:19:53.260 I mean, you must be pinching yourself.
00:19:55.300 Oh.
00:19:55.440 When you walk out on the stage, it's like fucking, what, 20,000 people?
00:19:58.660 No, no, no.
00:19:59.480 10,000 people and they got Ari Maness?
00:20:01.500 How the fuck, right?
00:20:02.440 I'm grateful to have him around.
00:20:03.600 Ari's a guy.
00:20:04.140 He always speaks very highly of you.
00:20:06.020 Oh, cool.
00:20:06.680 Always.
00:20:07.000 Yes, yes.
00:20:07.740 I've taken him out on the road.
00:20:09.560 The thing is with you and I, because we're similar in a way, like we go out on the road
00:20:13.880 and we bring these guys.
00:20:15.200 And, you know, and we know, and you know, I know, and everyone else knows, the reason
00:20:20.100 why people are paying for the tickets is for us.
00:20:22.420 But at the end of the day, you got to take care of your guys and you also, they're there
00:20:27.460 not just to open the show.
00:20:29.060 They're there to hang out for you emotionally.
00:20:31.100 And that's more important.
00:20:32.660 So you got to give them a little extra shekels for that.
00:20:34.820 That's a good point, man.
00:20:35.460 You know what I'm saying?
00:20:36.240 And that's what I do.
00:20:37.140 And I pay for everything and I, you know, I take care of my guys because, you know,
00:20:43.720 at the end of the day, we're lonely guys, me and you.
00:20:46.120 I mean, let's be honest, you know, and if they weren't there, you'd have some local
00:20:49.020 opening for you and then you wouldn't be able to be with your homie.
00:20:51.760 Yeah.
00:20:52.420 You know, it's definitely true.
00:20:53.660 And yeah, you kind of factor in.
00:20:54.940 It's like, you think like, okay, I want to just, yeah, your opener has almost become
00:20:58.740 who, who do I like being around?
00:21:02.720 Who likes being around me?
00:21:04.240 Who can we both be around each other?
00:21:05.620 Hang.
00:21:06.040 It's all about the hang.
00:21:07.040 Yeah.
00:21:07.340 You know, like just sitting before you go on and you feel like you, those are your real
00:21:10.860 friends.
00:21:11.380 Yeah.
00:21:11.620 And I think that's more important.
00:21:12.940 And then obviously you're giving them stage time and they're making some money.
00:21:15.920 But at the end of the day, we're fucking, we're broken wings, dude.
00:21:20.060 You know, we're fucked up, dude.
00:21:21.320 If your mom was pretty attentive and she was really kind of there, what do you think kind
00:21:24.480 of made you that, made, turned you into the comedian, you think?
00:21:27.900 For me, I just, I don't know.
00:21:29.860 I mean, I've always loved making people laugh, you know what I mean?
00:21:33.200 Ever since I was a kid.
00:21:34.100 I mean, it started with Richard Pryor and Robin Williams and all those guys, because back
00:21:38.000 in the day, I talk about this on my one-man show.
00:21:40.660 I have a one-man show that your dude told me he saw.
00:21:43.360 It's called Stick with the Dancing.
00:21:44.640 It's about my childhood.
00:21:46.280 And it's everything before I made it.
00:21:49.860 It's all the shit that I have before I made it.
00:21:51.700 Yeah.
00:21:51.860 It's all my childhood shit.
00:21:53.280 But when I was a kid, you know, my mom used to have a lot of parties at the house.
00:21:58.140 So she would always be like, let's go back to the fucking house from the store.
00:22:01.660 You know what I mean?
00:22:02.700 And everyone would go to the house, the Doheny house where, you know, where I grew up in.
00:22:07.080 And, you know, and it would be like a Tuesday night and I'd be trying to sleep.
00:22:11.540 And I'd hear the party going downstairs.
00:22:13.600 I had to wake up for school in the morning because my mom's guardian, who is a Thai lady
00:22:19.540 by the name of Suni and the bar manager name was Ted and he worked at the club and Suni
00:22:24.500 would have to take me to school.
00:22:25.940 And I had to wake up in the morning, but there'd be partying downstairs.
00:22:28.760 So I had to go downstairs and I'd have to tell my mom to shut up.
00:22:34.360 I mean, but for real, because my mom was from Wisconsin and her voice would go, ah, and
00:22:38.760 it would peer through the fucking laughter.
00:22:41.160 And there would be Richard Pryor and there would be Robin and fucking Argus and Richard
00:22:45.440 Belzer and Tim Thomerson and Biff Maynard and all these fucking guys.
00:22:50.520 It was wild, dude.
00:22:52.240 Like my shit, like when I, like the fact that I'm still around and I'm okay, it's fucking weird.
00:22:57.860 Yeah.
00:22:58.100 You know what I mean?
00:22:58.940 Oh, I can't imagine.
00:22:59.680 It's fucking weird because I've seen so much.
00:23:02.320 Do you feel like you had, you felt like you had to compete to be like you, oh, well, in
00:23:07.200 order to be even seen, I have to be funny because that's the environment.
00:23:10.260 No, I was just, no, because when I told them to shut up, I had school in the morning, everyone
00:23:13.520 laughed.
00:23:14.380 So it was like, that's what, yeah, they would just laugh.
00:23:17.380 So it was like, I was, I was, you know, I guess I was funny without knowing I was funny
00:23:21.560 when I was, you know, when I was just, just a kid.
00:23:24.040 But I always liked making people laugh.
00:23:26.080 Like I always fucked around and that's what Totally Polly was.
00:23:29.200 Yeah.
00:23:29.400 I mean, Totally Polly was like this natural, this kind of like happy accident.
00:23:34.760 You know, the thing on MTV was just like this fucking, this storm.
00:23:38.260 How many episodes did you guys do of it?
00:23:39.840 We shot six years, dude.
00:23:41.700 Six years.
00:23:42.360 Every day from three to 4.30.
00:23:44.880 Jesus.
00:23:45.320 That's what I was telling you when you came up to my house.
00:23:47.340 I'm like, dude, you're like I was back when I first made it because you're like this,
00:23:51.240 people like, ah, on you.
00:23:53.480 And that's how it was for me.
00:23:54.720 But I was in my 20s.
00:23:55.960 Yeah.
00:23:56.320 How old are you?
00:23:56.860 I'm 44.
00:23:58.200 Yeah.
00:23:59.080 So imagine it when you're in your 20s.
00:24:00.940 I can't, I would not be alive.
00:24:02.280 Yeah.
00:24:02.480 I'd be deceased.
00:24:03.760 I'd be deceased.
00:24:04.640 But at least then the cocaine was safe to do.
00:24:07.020 Yeah, because you did a lot of that.
00:24:08.420 I did some of it.
00:24:09.680 Not a lot, though?
00:24:10.420 I did a lot.
00:24:11.020 Yeah, I did a little more than I said.
00:24:12.320 I just said I did.
00:24:13.200 Yeah, I did.
00:24:13.660 Yeah, I did it.
00:24:15.080 Yeah, because you have mental stuff too, right?
00:24:18.240 Well, I mean.
00:24:18.680 Like, are you better now than you were?
00:24:20.600 Yeah, some stuff's better.
00:24:22.000 But I think, what do I, I mean, yeah, I don't know.
00:24:24.940 I'd like, you know what I liked about, I think, I just didn't trust the fucking world,
00:24:30.220 right?
00:24:30.420 There's just something about the world I didn't trust.
00:24:32.100 I didn't trust it out of the gate.
00:24:33.680 You trust me?
00:24:35.480 I don't know.
00:24:35.940 We'll see.
00:24:36.620 I didn't trust the world out of the gate.
00:24:42.580 But there was something about a joke, right?
00:24:45.420 That you couldn't, if I got you to, if you laughed, it was like.
00:24:52.360 Yeah, I think we should take our hats off.
00:24:53.840 Okay, I'd love to.
00:24:54.780 Okay.
00:24:55.140 I think it's a great idea.
00:24:56.200 Do you have glasses?
00:24:57.800 Yeah.
00:24:58.400 Yeah, let's put some glasses on.
00:24:59.820 I think that, don't you think it makes sense?
00:25:01.500 Will you bring my glasses that are in there?
00:25:02.760 Yeah, just because we're trying to do.
00:25:04.180 Do you mind that they're in the front of my book bag or lenses list?
00:25:07.420 Yeah, we're trying to do a theme thing here.
00:25:09.220 Okay.
00:25:09.560 Like the, you know, like the Belushi, you know, like, what is it?
00:25:12.020 Oh, like Blue Bonnet or whatever?
00:25:13.680 Yeah, no, like Blues Brothers.
00:25:15.280 Blues Brothers.
00:25:16.120 That makes sense, right?
00:25:17.140 Yeah, yeah.
00:25:17.680 Yeah, that's cool.
00:25:18.560 Okay, so go on back into the laugh.
00:25:20.300 There's the Blues Brothers.
00:25:21.060 But there's something about laughter, man.
00:25:22.540 Like, it was just, it was like magic.
00:25:25.840 It was like, how do I do magic from over here?
00:25:28.940 Like, make you feel a certain way, but I don't need to go over there.
00:25:32.340 I just, it's like, what do you do?
00:25:34.700 And laughter was that.
00:25:35.880 If you could get somebody, you'd say something, and they went from whatever their state was,
00:25:40.400 and they laughed.
00:25:41.280 I was like, oh, that's real.
00:25:42.900 That's authentic.
00:25:44.260 It's authentic.
00:25:44.740 I can rely.
00:25:45.520 That is, they couldn't have faked that.
00:25:47.260 And you can tell if they do.
00:25:48.920 Yeah, exactly.
00:25:50.040 So you're from the Bayou, though, right?
00:25:51.640 So there's something like, yeah.
00:25:52.580 So you're from the Bayou.
00:25:53.340 Oh, this is good, dude.
00:25:54.760 This is like a theme thing.
00:25:56.460 What?
00:25:57.060 Oh, wow.
00:25:59.240 Oh, wow.
00:25:59.880 So you don't have shades on there?
00:26:01.800 Yeah, the shades, we can edit them in.
00:26:03.320 They're clear.
00:26:03.880 Oh, you edit them in?
00:26:04.980 Oh, that's sick.
00:26:06.100 So this is...
00:26:07.200 Jackie Onassis.
00:26:12.460 Take your old records off the shelves.
00:26:15.480 Okay, so, all right.
00:26:16.900 So that was something that was fascinating to me.
00:26:18.860 Dude, I want to know this.
00:26:19.760 Who came by the store, right?
00:26:22.180 Who came by the store, Paulie, over the years?
00:26:24.500 Like, I mean, what about when Jim Carrey came?
00:26:26.500 Were you guys just like, what?
00:26:27.740 Like, who came and it was just something so novel?
00:26:31.560 Did you ever see a popcorn machine put popcorn out?
00:26:38.240 You know, we're pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.
00:26:39.900 That was like the store back in the, you know, in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
00:26:43.960 Yeah.
00:26:44.300 It felt like that.
00:26:46.280 You know, my mom was the center.
00:26:47.600 She was the central colonel.
00:26:49.140 Yeah.
00:26:49.380 You know what I mean?
00:26:49.960 So, yeah.
00:26:50.460 So, boom.
00:26:51.160 You got Jim Carrey, boom.
00:26:53.220 You got Dice, boom.
00:26:54.900 You got fucking, you know, Arsenio, boom.
00:26:57.480 You got Roseanne, boom.
00:26:59.420 You got, you know, Eddie Murphy, boom.
00:27:01.540 You got Richard, boom.
00:27:02.740 You got Robin, boom.
00:27:03.880 It was just like, boom, boom.
00:27:04.780 But everyone was doing drugs and everyone was drinking.
00:27:07.980 And it was just like normal.
00:27:09.340 Yeah.
00:27:09.780 You know?
00:27:10.240 And Sam Kennison was the man.
00:27:12.060 It was part of society.
00:27:13.180 It was very common.
00:27:14.480 That's why when Tommy Lee was here, you know, he was here, I guess, earlier or whatever.
00:27:19.080 He was part of that whole thing.
00:27:20.680 Because him and Sam Kennison were very close.
00:27:23.000 They were?
00:27:23.560 Yeah, very close.
00:27:24.700 Fuck, wish I'd have known it.
00:27:25.720 Yeah.
00:27:25.760 And then also Vince Neil, who I talked to about a month ago, he lives in Nashville.
00:27:30.600 Yeah.
00:27:30.900 Do you know that?
00:27:31.620 Yeah.
00:27:31.820 Because you live in Nashville.
00:27:32.540 I see him sometimes.
00:27:33.460 Yeah, and he says he's got a huge, he's the only one that's still not sober.
00:27:37.540 Like, everyone else is sober.
00:27:38.620 Yeah.
00:27:38.960 And Vince is like, no, fuck that.
00:27:40.780 I'm like, cool, I'm hanging out with you.
00:27:43.340 Yeah, dude.
00:27:44.280 Vince is fucking wild, bro.
00:27:45.640 Yeah, there you go.
00:27:46.580 Oh, that's so cool.
00:27:47.960 What about the story with Kennison and LeBove?
00:27:50.440 Did you know about all that?
00:27:51.420 Oh, very much so.
00:27:53.220 Yeah, that's a wild story.
00:27:54.600 Take me through some of that story.
00:27:56.760 Okay, so basically, there was a comedian for you young TikTokers out there that are obsessed
00:28:01.620 with my friend, Theo Vaughn.
00:28:03.720 Just so you know, Vaughn is from, it's a French articulation that comes from the south of France
00:28:10.840 in an island called Brindisi.
00:28:12.820 So just look that up.
00:28:14.220 That's where his last name is, Theo Vaughn.
00:28:16.840 Vaughn.
00:28:17.380 Yeah, Vaughn.
00:28:18.140 Yeah.
00:28:18.480 And my family originally is from Mogadishu, actually.
00:28:20.960 Yes, Mogadishu, which is in the Swiss Alps.
00:28:23.520 Yep.
00:28:24.140 Swiss Alps.
00:28:24.680 High as you can go up there.
00:28:26.220 Yeah, so it's just up, up, up, up, up.
00:28:27.700 That's where his mom popped you out.
00:28:29.820 Come on up.
00:28:30.400 That's what mom would say.
00:28:31.320 Yep, come on up.
00:28:31.900 It'd take a month.
00:28:33.160 Yep.
00:28:33.660 So just to do the quick version, there's a comedian named Sam Kennison.
00:28:38.740 He was on fire.
00:28:39.660 His best friend name was named Carl LeBeau.
00:28:42.600 Think about Amir Kay, you know?
00:28:45.340 And you guys are doing drugs and getting fucked up and blah, blah, blah.
00:28:51.460 And Amir Kay is married.
00:28:55.900 And Amir Kay has a wife.
00:28:57.860 And you fuck his wife.
00:29:00.780 And then you get her pregnant.
00:29:02.720 And then you die.
00:29:04.520 And then Amir Kay has your baby.
00:29:08.740 And then Amir Kay winds up having to pay for your baby.
00:29:13.680 And he thinks it's his baby his whole life.
00:29:15.880 No, because it looks like fucking you.
00:29:18.680 But they never got a blood test, I don't think, until later, right?
00:29:22.140 Until kind of later, yeah.
00:29:23.620 So for 16 years, I think.
00:29:25.600 18 years.
00:29:26.360 Like he had to, you know.
00:29:27.340 Carl was paying for the baby.
00:29:28.920 Carl was like supporting the child and thinking it was his daughter.
00:29:31.780 Yeah.
00:29:32.040 But it was fucked up.
00:29:34.300 And I still haven't met the kid.
00:29:36.540 Wow.
00:29:36.840 And I really want to meet the kid.
00:29:39.260 So.
00:29:40.120 That'd be pretty fascinating.
00:29:41.260 We should get her on this fucking show.
00:29:42.900 Oh, I wish we could Zoom right now with her.
00:29:44.740 How sick would that be?
00:29:46.140 Sam.
00:29:47.360 Sam Kennison's.
00:29:48.560 She's like, what's up?
00:29:50.600 She just, oh, oh.
00:29:52.740 You know, being an adult has its high points.
00:29:54.980 I'll say that.
00:29:56.120 You can eat ice cream for dinner.
00:29:58.280 You can sit in your car and have your dang waffle in there if you want.
00:30:01.880 Eat it with your hands.
00:30:03.400 God, that's nice.
00:30:04.840 But it's not all fun.
00:30:06.780 You also have to do your taxes and figure out what's for dinner.
00:30:09.800 And you have to make doctor's appointments.

00:31:28.220 Is pornography causing a problem in your life?
00:31:32.480 That's a good question.
00:31:33.900 It's a real question.
00:31:34.900 It has in mind, it has at certain periods in my life, watching porno and everything and
00:31:42.660 watching porno was making me, it was ruining my life.
00:31:46.420 It was ruining my life, man.
00:31:47.960 Made me feel just so much shame.
00:31:49.380 That's what it did.
00:31:51.160 Well, watching pornography has become commonplace today.

00:33:13.860 Thank you.
00:33:15.160 But yeah, so...
00:33:16.780 That was wild.
00:33:18.480 And Carl got a fucking...
00:33:19.520 Carl got the...
00:33:20.840 He had a tough one.
00:33:22.940 He had a tough run.
00:33:24.180 I got to put my glasses back on.
00:33:25.900 Thanks.
00:33:26.200 Yeah, but Carl had a tough run, and he was genius.
00:33:29.020 He was a great...
00:33:29.740 Carl was great.
00:33:30.340 I would see him down in Texas, down at Randy Butler's clubs down there, and I would see
00:33:34.440 him perform down there sometimes and cross paths with him.
00:33:36.760 Nice guy.
00:33:37.920 Yeah.
00:33:38.380 People loved him.
00:33:40.140 Yeah, he was special.
00:33:42.420 There was another guy named Mitchell Walters, who also died.
00:33:45.460 You know Carl died, right?
00:33:46.700 Yeah.
00:33:47.120 Yeah, and Mitchell Walters died, too.
00:33:48.900 He was fucking hilarious.
00:33:50.800 He had the fucking funniest 12 minutes of material.
00:33:53.440 Really?
00:33:53.740 Bring him up.
00:33:54.120 This guy was fucking hilarious.
00:33:57.240 Wow.
00:33:57.800 We did shows in Vegas.
00:33:59.540 This was in the late 80s, and we were at the Dunes Hotel, and it was Sam Kennison and
00:34:06.980 the Outlaws of Comedy.
00:34:08.240 Mitchell, what was his name?
00:34:09.340 Mitchell Walters.
00:34:10.660 Yeah, this guy.
00:34:11.360 Oh, wow.
00:34:11.940 Beautiful, huh?
00:34:12.660 He was fucking hilarious.
00:34:14.020 Trans or no?
00:34:15.340 No, he wasn't trans.
00:34:16.780 Indian, huh?
00:34:18.300 No, I don't know what he was, but he was fucking hilarious.
00:34:21.220 Oh.
00:34:21.500 See, there's a picture with him and Sam and Billy Idol on the left up there.
00:34:25.340 Yeah, there you go.
00:34:26.980 Oh, wow.
00:34:27.820 So, before one of the shows at the Dunes, this was the late 80s, this was when Sam Kennison
00:34:33.460 was getting sued by United Artists for not showing up on his movie set, a took.
00:34:40.240 So, Mitchell Walters comes up to me before the show, and I said, Mitchell, we're going
00:34:44.900 to hang out after the show, right?
00:34:46.660 And he goes, yeah, absolutely, me and you, we're going to party, package, package, party.
00:34:50.680 And then when the show started, and then the show finished, and I went to go hang out with
00:34:55.120 him, and I'm like, yo, let's fucking hang out.
00:34:56.660 He's like, get the fuck away from me, golden boy.
00:34:58.660 I don't, go hang out with your fucking mother.
00:35:00.460 I don't have time for this shit.
00:35:01.860 Because in between the show, he went out and did coke, and he fucking gambled, and he
00:35:06.220 lost everything.
00:35:07.080 Oh.
00:35:07.620 Yeah, yeah, so.
00:35:08.900 Damn.
00:35:09.400 Yeah.
00:35:09.940 And one show lost it all.
00:35:11.340 Yeah, he lost a lot.
00:35:12.160 And how did he pass away?
00:35:14.600 I think he had some type of internal, like, you know, I don't want to say it was cancer
00:35:19.960 or something like that, but he wasn't too healthy.
00:35:22.760 Damn, bro.
00:35:23.440 Yeah.
00:35:24.280 But he was a really funny cat as well, though, you know?
00:35:28.040 It's kind of a dangerous, it's a dice roll doing comedy, because you're really, you're
00:35:32.780 at a, because comedy club is just a bar attached to a stage.
00:35:35.960 That's all it is.
00:35:36.960 It's a bar, so it's like.
00:35:38.520 You have access to everything.
00:35:39.820 Yeah, and you have access to everything, and you perform at night.
00:35:42.020 So you're at work at night, people have just gotten out of a crowd, they're on a
00:35:46.020 high, you're on a high, it's like, yeah, it's like you're just, there's so much temptation
00:35:50.640 that's right there, so much possibility for, to get in trouble.
00:35:54.620 So how's it going for you now?
00:35:56.440 How are you feeling these days?
00:35:58.240 I feel okay.
00:35:59.060 I think I feel like a lot of responsibility sometimes, you know?
00:36:01.740 So that's, it's not as much fun sometimes, I guess, because you have a little, you feel
00:36:05.600 like you have more responsibility, but then sometimes I got to remember, hey man, just take
00:36:10.180 it easy, just do your best, be yourself, try your best, and just try to be honest about,
00:36:16.100 you know, whenever you can about what's going on, you know?
00:36:20.520 So some of that's been pretty interesting.
00:36:22.140 I think just that the boom we're having in comedy has been really, that's been a real
00:36:26.980 blessing, because I think the news kind of shot itself in the dick over the past five
00:36:32.100 years or something.
00:36:32.820 And kind of like, nobody knows what's news or what's real anymore, so everything's such
00:36:37.200 a joke anyway, that I think people are like, well, at least I know these are jokes.
00:36:42.440 Yeah.
00:36:42.680 And then what do you think about like doing something on stage or doing something or this
00:36:48.100 or whatever, and then people comment on this as opposed to the old days where you just
00:36:52.460 do a TV show and no one would comment.
00:36:54.360 Right.
00:36:54.660 Except for they would just come up to you at like a, you know, a diner and say, oh,
00:36:58.040 I saw you on Married with Children or some shit.
00:37:00.380 Yeah.
00:37:00.600 But like, this is instant.
00:37:02.140 Do you read the comments?
00:37:03.600 Sometimes I'll look at some of them.
00:37:04.940 Sometimes the producers will send me some to watch.
00:37:07.280 Yeah.
00:37:07.500 You know, it's good luck.
00:37:08.500 It's like, do you want to open a box that's, that's something can hurt your feelings?
00:37:12.260 I don't know.
00:37:12.980 Yeah.
00:37:13.180 You know?
00:37:13.480 Yeah.
00:37:13.800 I think that's kind of some of the dangerous part.
00:37:15.880 Now, if it's something super funny, a lot of times they'll make sure that I see it,
00:37:18.520 you know?
00:37:19.000 Yeah.
00:37:19.400 Sometimes if somebody makes funny, really good.
00:37:20.900 What do you think about what happened to Jack Black and his partner recently?
00:37:24.800 He's not.
00:37:25.520 His partner, you know?
00:37:26.860 Well, no, because he said something.
00:37:28.020 Is he homosexual?
00:37:28.940 The what?
00:37:29.540 He's homosexual?
00:37:30.360 No, I don't know.
00:37:31.040 No, no, no.
00:37:31.300 What happened was, I think they said something about Donald Trump.
00:37:34.480 Oh, I didn't even see that.
00:37:35.320 Oh, with Tristan D or whatever the guy's name is?
00:37:37.460 Snake D or whatever?
00:37:38.400 No, his partner said something.
00:37:40.560 Oh, yeah.
00:37:41.040 He said, I wish I wouldn't have missed him.
00:37:42.760 Yeah.
00:37:43.000 I think that's fucking kind of classless, I think.
00:37:44.960 Yeah.
00:37:45.780 I wouldn't say that about a president.
00:37:48.040 No, no.
00:37:48.740 Did you.
00:37:49.640 But isn't it wild that like you can ad-lib something like that and then it's a
00:37:54.180 rap for a while?
00:37:55.280 Yeah.
00:37:55.560 It's crazy, right?
00:37:56.680 And yes, it was terrible, you know, that he said that and that's, you don't, you
00:38:00.640 don't say that and you don't even joke about that.
00:38:03.540 But I mean, look, but also it's like, that's how he feels.
00:38:07.900 Uh, I just think it's a kind of a, and it had just had like, yeah, it's just kind of, people
00:38:14.560 don't want that.
00:38:15.460 People are confused.
00:38:16.160 So what do you think about Kamala these days?
00:38:18.200 This is pretty.
00:38:20.160 Are you kidding?
00:38:21.060 It's going to be.
00:38:21.440 No, but the whole thing.
00:38:22.380 Kamala's not even.
00:38:23.200 I know, but the whole thing's going to be like a great, it's going to be political theater.
00:38:27.400 I think.
00:38:27.960 Oh, it is.
00:38:28.420 I mean, it's going to be like.
00:38:29.720 It's all it is now.
00:38:30.580 Yes.
00:38:30.880 I think politics is just political theater.
00:38:33.560 It's a shell or it's a shell company for the big business.
00:38:39.120 It's a fucking, it's like a puppets.
00:38:41.860 It's a puppet theater.
00:38:42.620 It seems like to me.
00:38:43.720 Yeah.
00:38:44.700 Well, I think, I don't know if Kamala doesn't have it to win.
00:38:48.260 I don't think that.
00:38:49.140 I don't think anyone is going to be Trump, to be honest.
00:38:52.540 I like, I think Bobby Kennedy, I feel like has a lot of great points to talk about and
00:38:56.600 stuff.
00:38:56.800 I think he's very fascinating.
00:38:58.020 I think he, you know, you believe that he wants to get in there and do something different.
00:39:04.760 Why is it so many people don't want to run for president?
00:39:07.620 Like the rock, for instance, people have talked about the rock, like he's gorgeous.
00:39:12.480 He's big.
00:39:13.280 He's handsome.
00:39:14.060 He's a huge, huge star.
00:39:16.620 Like, you know, like I think Trump fans and then also the liberal, liberal audience would
00:39:20.980 fucking go, oh my God, that's fucking the rock.
00:39:22.980 That's our guy.
00:39:23.700 Yeah.
00:39:24.040 Because, because obviously like, I mean, would you ever run for anything like that?
00:39:27.500 Like, think about it for a second.
00:39:29.240 Like, not right now.
00:39:30.400 Yeah.
00:39:30.740 But I'm like, you know, you're 44, you said?
00:39:33.420 44.
00:39:33.960 I'm 44.
00:39:34.820 44.
00:39:35.360 So look about when you're 54.
00:39:36.960 Yeah.
00:39:37.500 You know what I mean?
00:39:37.880 After you kind of like wanted to chill, like, would you ever get into politics?
00:39:41.020 Maybe I would run for a VP or something if they let you.
00:39:43.760 So you'd be a vice president?
00:39:45.300 Be cool.
00:39:45.960 That'd be sick.
00:39:46.360 Because vice president, you just get to stand in the back and be like this.
00:39:49.280 Right?
00:39:50.440 That'd be cool.
00:39:51.380 Vice president, you just get to fucking chill, bro.
00:39:53.920 Have you ever been to the White House?
00:39:55.040 Sure they want to thug.
00:39:56.340 Like, you just get to fucking know, like, what does the vice president say?
00:39:58.660 He just gets to say some crazy shit, bro.
00:40:00.700 Yeah, yeah.
00:40:01.200 And you know what I'm saying?
00:40:01.920 You get to say, hey, China, we bout this shit, bro.
00:40:04.980 Right.
00:40:05.220 And then it just goes viral and then you're fucking having a blast, dude.
00:40:08.420 Yeah.
00:40:08.600 And you can party with chicks or whatever.
00:40:10.360 Your wife can be fucking cool.
00:40:12.300 Your kids can be on the front lawn fucking juggling or fucking smoking behind the statues
00:40:17.120 or whatever.
00:40:18.140 I think it would be, that part would be pretty fun.
00:40:20.320 And there's no pressure.
00:40:21.380 Everybody knows the vice president's a, who gives a fuck anyway, dude.
00:40:24.620 It's like, they'll let anybody be the vice president, dude.
00:40:28.240 Yeah.
00:40:29.120 But now she's, she, cause Joe Biden timbered.
00:40:32.080 Yeah.
00:40:32.660 Timbered.
00:40:33.100 You know what I mean?
00:40:33.500 He tapped out.
00:40:33.840 And that pissed me off.
00:40:34.340 Joe should have fucking hung in there.
00:40:35.680 Yeah.
00:40:36.160 Yeah.
00:40:36.360 Until he fell really hard.
00:40:38.440 You know what they should have done?
00:40:39.640 Here's what they should have done with him.
00:40:41.340 Because he didn't want to bail.
00:40:42.900 You know what I mean?
00:40:43.200 He didn't want to bail.
00:40:44.320 No, they told him so long he was the president.
00:40:46.000 He finally, when they said, no, no, you're not the president.
00:40:47.580 He's like, I am the president.
00:40:49.340 He believed it.
00:40:50.640 No, what they should have done is they should have told him that, um, that, uh, Mr. President,
00:40:55.900 there's mold in the white house.
00:40:57.660 We need to move you to a hotel, move him to a hotel for three, four days, then take all
00:41:01.940 his pictures and all the different things that are in the white house and put them in another
00:41:05.960 white house and then move them back into that and say, this is your place.
00:41:09.680 You know, he won't know that it's not his place.
00:41:11.720 And then just say, you're the president, but he just like plug in other TVs and shit.
00:41:15.700 He's like, don't I have anything to do today?
00:41:17.080 Like, no, you're good.
00:41:18.140 Yeah.
00:41:18.740 They're like, no, your dog just bit somebody.
00:41:20.300 Now eat some ice cream.
00:41:21.280 But I felt bad because he was, you know, he was being puppeted.
00:41:24.280 It felt like.
00:41:24.560 Yeah.
00:41:24.680 But he was also, um, I, I've been around like my mom, for instance, my mom wasn't well,
00:41:30.120 you know, towards, towards, you know, the last good 10 years.
00:41:33.040 She was, um, you know, have some dementia.
00:41:35.300 Yes.
00:41:35.680 She had that whole thing.
00:41:36.960 So I was, that was affecting me watching Joe reminding me of my mom.
00:41:41.120 And your grandparents are people's watching grandparents.
00:41:44.460 It's not fucking funny.
00:41:45.520 Oh, if you did that.
00:41:46.340 Yeah.
00:41:46.660 I mean, my father was, uh, my father was 70 when I was born.
00:41:49.800 So he was an old man.
00:41:50.760 Oh shit.
00:41:51.200 So I can totally relate to the sense of like, it felt like somebody was being taken advantage
00:41:54.760 of a little bit.
00:41:55.500 That's what, and that really, I don't care what side of the things you're on, but that
00:41:58.920 to me just felt, it must look cringe to people in the world if that's how we're willing
00:42:03.360 to do with our senior citizens.
00:42:04.740 And then also like every time he walked off a plane, wasn't cool.
00:42:08.660 Like it felt like he was going to fall.
00:42:10.240 Yeah.
00:42:10.660 And it wasn't cool.
00:42:11.560 And it's like, you know, I didn't want to see that.
00:42:13.580 Right.
00:42:13.960 You know what I mean?
00:42:14.480 I didn't want to see, I didn't, I'm glad that didn't, nothing bad happened.
00:42:17.340 That's a good point, huh?
00:42:18.260 All those little stages they put them on, the scariest thing to put, the scariest thing
00:42:21.880 for a senior citizen next to more than, more than one Ottoman in a room is a little
00:42:27.280 stage, dude, because there's nowhere really to go except for down.
00:42:30.880 Yeah.
00:42:31.120 Just stairs.
00:42:32.680 Yeah.
00:42:33.040 One stair, two stairs.
00:42:34.820 Yeah.
00:42:35.580 So, yeah.
00:42:36.060 So that shit was bunk, dude.
00:42:37.100 What do you think?
00:42:37.940 I, and it looks like almost they tried to kill Trump.
00:42:41.180 Someone did.
00:42:41.900 It didn't work.
00:42:42.940 And so then Biden, they're like, well, if that doesn't work, then Biden has to step
00:42:46.600 down because he has to give, put somebody that can try to win.
00:42:49.320 I don't know if that's true, but it looks a little bit like that.
00:42:52.560 What do you think happened?
00:42:53.420 Do you think, what do you think?
00:42:55.200 I think there's, he's a sicko, that little kid.
00:42:58.440 Oh, you just think it was just the kid acting alone?
00:42:59.700 Yeah, it was a sicko.
00:43:00.360 Yeah.
00:43:00.540 I think so.
00:43:01.400 I think it was just a sicko.
00:43:03.500 You know, it's like a lot of these school shooters are, they're, you know what I mean?
00:43:08.060 They're not all up there.
00:43:08.940 Who's, I mean, who's going to take a gun and go shoot up a school?
00:43:12.060 It's just disgusting.
00:43:13.140 Oh, yeah.
00:43:13.440 So it's like, you know, for someone to do that, it's just repulsive.
00:43:16.480 You know, and, and, and I don't know.
00:43:19.200 I mean, no comment.
00:43:19.960 It's just sad.
00:43:21.300 You know, the kids are fucked up.
00:43:22.580 Oh, it's heartbreaking.
00:43:23.500 And then the kid is dead now.
00:43:25.340 I don't, you know, and you wonder like, did somebody get to this kid and inspire him to do
00:43:29.940 that?
00:43:31.240 The thing about having another shooter, because some people think that there's another shooter,
00:43:34.880 but you would have had to have had the, then somebody had to have hired the kid.
00:43:41.340 You know, they have to know the kid's going to do it.
00:43:43.620 Or, yeah.
00:43:44.100 And I don't think that happened.
00:43:45.420 I think he's just a wacko that knew Trump was, you know what I mean?
00:43:48.860 Going to be speaking.
00:43:49.520 But then it's unbelievable that the Secret Service wasn't able to, like, if people are-
00:43:55.180 Because they were checking their Instagram.
00:43:56.400 Yeah, probably.
00:43:57.400 Absolutely.
00:43:58.540 You know, they're just self-involved with their own bullshit.
00:44:00.860 And they weren't, weren't, weren't focused on the whole thing.
00:44:04.000 Either way, you know, I like, you know, at night, you know, I was, I was fucking with you
00:44:07.320 the other night when we were texting each other.
00:44:08.800 I said, I got to go.
00:44:09.880 I'm going to sleep.
00:44:10.540 I'm watching Fox News.
00:44:11.980 You know what I mean?
00:44:12.360 I just, you know, as a con- I started watching Fox News with my mom.
00:44:18.200 She loved it.
00:44:19.460 Really?
00:44:19.720 Yeah, she loved it.
00:44:21.260 She would just watch Bill- Look at Bill O'Reilly.
00:44:23.840 And then she'd see the Fox News anchors.
00:44:25.680 What the fuck is her horse teeth?
00:44:27.180 She's got fucking horse teeth, Pauly.
00:44:29.580 You know, with all the Fox News anchor girls, she'd always get angry.
00:44:32.500 What the fuck is she looking at?
00:44:36.560 You know what I mean?
00:44:37.200 She's got, she looks like a horse face.
00:44:39.460 She would say that.
00:44:40.400 It was fucking hilarious.
00:44:41.540 So I would watch, I would always watch, you know, the news with her.
00:44:46.580 Oh, that's nice.
00:44:47.120 We'd watch CNN.
00:44:47.860 We'd watch Fox.
00:44:48.720 Any other shows y'all would watch together?
00:44:50.200 Game shows or anything?
00:44:51.920 Tommy would bring over comedians sometimes.
00:44:54.800 Tommy, the old talent guy.
00:44:56.020 Yeah, he'd bring over comedians.
00:44:57.140 What do you think of him?
00:44:58.460 You know, shit like that.
00:44:59.720 I miss Tommy kind of.
00:45:00.880 Yeah.
00:45:02.200 Yeah.
00:45:02.660 What do you mean kind of?
00:45:03.460 I miss him.
00:45:04.340 Yeah.
00:45:04.900 He was right-
00:45:05.700 He was fun.
00:45:06.100 He was a great guy.
00:45:06.660 He was there when I got there.
00:45:07.560 He was such a character.
00:45:09.040 You know, how he kind of like-
00:45:10.900 Yeah.
00:45:11.180 You know?
00:45:12.380 Well, he was funny because he said he stayed-
00:45:14.080 You're doing it, man.
00:45:14.400 You're doing it.
00:45:15.320 Yeah.
00:45:15.500 Him and his girl, Steph, they stayed at the Hyatt.
00:45:18.260 And he says, well, it seems like the comedy store's calling me.
00:45:22.620 It's right down there.
00:45:24.020 They want me.
00:45:25.040 They want me to run the comedy store.
00:45:27.720 Don't you understand?
00:45:30.060 Well, that's how it is.
00:45:32.500 That's how your mother wanted it, Pauly.
00:45:34.960 Listen to your mother.
00:45:36.520 She's the queen.
00:45:38.580 You know what I mean?
00:45:39.340 It's pretty cool.
00:45:40.200 He was-
00:45:40.600 What do you think of his relationship with your mom?
00:45:42.540 What do you think it was like?
00:45:43.520 It was good.
00:45:44.520 Yeah.
00:45:44.680 It was good.
00:45:45.160 I mean, he used to do shit with my mom that you're not supposed to do for someone that
00:45:48.720 you're working.
00:45:49.200 He used to carry her up the stairs.
00:45:50.680 I mean, she would literally call him up.
00:45:52.480 Help me up.
00:45:53.220 I can't get up.
00:45:53.940 You know?
00:45:54.680 And it was-
00:45:55.620 You know, she would be working the cover booth and then Steve Renazzisi would have
00:45:58.960 to come in and that's when he stole the money.
00:46:00.820 But that was another conversation that was supposed to be funny.
00:46:03.980 Anyways, all right.
00:46:04.600 No, I think it's-
00:46:05.140 Yeah, it's like-
00:46:05.820 Yeah, because I never knew exactly what happened.
00:46:07.560 I just knew the-
00:46:08.160 Yeah, so what happened was is my mom didn't trust a lot of people.
00:46:11.380 Right.
00:46:11.800 You know?
00:46:12.280 And my mom loved Tommy, you know, because, you know, she just, you know, she took to certain
00:46:19.460 people.
00:46:20.240 You know, my mom took to certain people and she really liked him and she trusted him.
00:46:23.800 So when she couldn't get up the stairs, you know, because she would try to get up the
00:46:29.060 stairs, you know, she would call the store and she'd say, can you help me up the stairs?
00:46:33.640 And then he'd be like, Mitzi, I can't.
00:46:35.920 You know what I mean?
00:46:36.500 I'm, you know, I'm here in the cover booth.
00:46:38.180 There's people.
00:46:38.900 I need help up the fucking stairs.
00:46:41.220 Let's go.
00:46:42.400 And then that's when, you know, Tommy would get Renazzisi or someone or someone to sit
00:46:47.020 in Benji or whoever and they'd sit in and then she would go and I would be there and
00:46:50.880 I would like, you know-
00:46:52.480 Help.
00:46:52.680 Help.
00:46:52.880 Yeah, help.
00:46:53.800 Bring her up the stairs.
00:46:54.660 And then, you know, he would sit with her for a long time and watch the TV and sometimes
00:46:59.260 not even go back to work.
00:47:01.440 So he did stuff that you weren't supposed to do as an employee, but that's what my mom
00:47:05.900 was.
00:47:06.200 That's what the store was.
00:47:07.160 The store was always about, you know, helping people.
00:47:10.060 And if you stole, you stole.
00:47:11.220 That's on you, you know?
00:47:12.280 Yeah.
00:47:12.920 You know, so.
00:47:14.200 And was that ever proven that he did it?
00:47:15.780 I don't know.
00:47:16.600 I wasn't involved.
00:47:17.560 Yeah.
00:47:17.840 I wasn't.
00:47:18.440 Yeah.
00:47:18.760 I just heard things and you're like, well, what even happened?
00:47:20.680 You know?
00:47:21.120 I don't know.
00:47:21.340 And you never got to really hear his side of it, I feel like, either, you know?
00:47:24.660 But, yeah.
00:47:26.620 So, but yeah, you know.
00:47:29.340 You had, so recently Richard Simmons passed away.
00:47:32.460 Yes.
00:47:32.820 Was there, were you guys ever, ever, because I know you were trying to do, you did a great
00:47:37.780 video, kind of auditioning to play him.
00:47:41.940 Yes.
00:47:43.520 And did you guys ever come to a, like, real conclusion?
00:47:47.600 Did you ever get to actually talk with him about it?
00:47:50.500 I never, I reached out to him.
00:47:53.920 I've known him since I was little.
00:47:55.780 I sent him flowers on Valentine's Day.
00:47:59.560 This is a short film.
00:48:02.040 Oh, this short film is called Court Jester.
00:48:07.140 And I love him and I love his story.
00:48:12.660 And I want to do his, you know, a biopic.
00:48:17.600 So we did this short film and it did really well for me.
00:48:21.620 You know, we were at Park City with it and, you know, and people just loved it.
00:48:26.800 Play something right there.
00:48:27.500 Oh, by the, by halfway into this, I believe that it's him.
00:48:31.220 Yeah.
00:48:41.540 It really seems like him, Pauline.
00:48:48.100 Five, six, seven, eight, you guys are kids, have kids.
00:48:51.280 That's great.
00:48:52.180 Yeah, so.
00:48:53.100 And he was from Louisiana, actually.
00:48:55.240 Yes, he was.
00:48:56.560 Him and his brother Lenny, yeah.
00:48:58.620 And so, now, since he's passed, is there a, would you still try to do it?
00:49:04.440 Like, I don't know if that's against the grain or whatever.
00:49:07.620 Or is that just, can his estate hire you to do it?
00:49:10.620 Well, here's, here's the deal in, in reality.
00:49:13.800 First of all, I'm just an actor.
00:49:15.420 Okay, I'm not a lawyer, you know.
00:49:17.520 But from what I, from what I've learned from being in this process, that if you're a public
00:49:23.640 figure, it's called an unauthorized biopic.
00:49:27.260 So, for instance, they happen every day.
00:49:29.800 So, I mean, the Pam and Tommy Hulu special, or Hulu series was unauthorized.
00:49:36.080 Oh, wow.
00:49:36.600 You know, they didn't have.
00:49:37.220 So, people can just make it.
00:49:38.460 That's, they do stuff all the time that way.
00:49:41.180 So, as long as you don't, don't do something mean, you know, as long as I do it nice, like
00:49:48.500 this piece is nice.
00:49:49.400 Right, you're not defaming him.
00:49:50.140 Yeah, you're not defaming him, then I'll be fine.
00:49:52.540 Wow.
00:49:52.740 So, I'm in bed with a producer named Mark Walper, W-O-L-P-E-R, not Wahlberg.
00:49:58.560 And he's been in the game for about 50 years, him and his family.
00:50:02.260 They have a deal at Warner Brothers, and I have a great writer named Jordan Allen Dutton
00:50:05.940 who's writing the script.
00:50:07.180 So, I'm moving forward with it.
00:50:09.060 And then, but my instinct is like, your instinct is get his estate to kind of be involved, you
00:50:14.760 know, give them some money, but we'll see.
00:50:17.140 You know, I'm kind of at the place where I just want to make the movie, and I just want
00:50:21.700 to kind of do good by him, and not defame him.
00:50:25.320 Yeah.
00:50:25.520 And that's kind of my come from from the beginning.
00:50:28.040 And it was never about making fun of anything else.
00:50:31.440 You know, his, Richard saved lives, like his, he saved lives, and he helped people, and that's
00:50:36.960 kind of where my come from is.
00:50:38.920 And at the end of the day, yeah, I'm a comic, but I'm a fucking actor.
00:50:42.320 Yeah.
00:50:42.600 You know what I mean?
00:50:43.160 Oh, yeah, dude.
00:50:43.560 I've starred in a lot of movies, and that's my main thing, and that's why I still sell tickets.
00:50:47.780 Yeah.
00:50:47.960 I don't sell tickets because of my Netflix special, or, you know, I sell tickets because
00:50:53.260 of this, because I've touched people with my films.
00:50:56.440 And so this is, lines up.
00:50:59.180 It's kind of like God gave me a softball.
00:51:01.320 I mean, this is like a really great opportunity for me, and I'm going to do it, and it's going
00:51:05.220 to happen, and we're getting the financing together right now.
00:51:08.260 That's kind of where we are in the process.
00:51:10.240 Wow.
00:51:10.440 But I got a great producer that I've been in bed with on this for about six months,
00:51:15.040 and we've got a great writer, and we've got a great story, we've got a great pitch,
00:51:17.540 and he's writing the script right now.
00:51:18.880 Wow.
00:51:19.280 So, yeah, so it's happening.
00:51:20.840 Yeah, and I think, you know, say if you had passed away and you knew before you passed
00:51:24.420 away, you were like, I don't know if I want this guy to make this thing about me or to
00:51:27.600 be in it.
00:51:28.580 And who knows if maybe also Richard Simmons was feeling embarrassed about himself.
00:51:32.360 He, you know, sometimes it's like, I just want to go away.
00:51:34.380 If he knew he was sick, there's just so many little, but then if you did pass away and
00:51:39.720 then somebody made something that was really honoring you and you got to see it, I wonder
00:51:43.560 how you would feel.
00:51:44.380 I feel like I would probably feel like, man, that's pretty cool.
00:51:47.160 Yeah, well, that's how I feel.
00:51:50.260 Yeah.
00:51:50.420 You know, I feel that he would see it just like he probably saw this.
00:51:53.440 And he touched people's lives, like you said.
00:51:55.440 Yeah, absolutely.
00:51:56.240 And at the end of the day, you know, publicly he came out and he says, I don't...
00:52:02.400 Yeah, what did he say?
00:52:03.100 Bring it up.
00:52:03.900 He says, I don't approve of Pauly Shore playing me in a biopic.
00:52:07.720 And then he says, I want Tom Cruise to play me.
00:52:11.660 So obviously.
00:52:13.200 So, I mean, you know, that's a funny joke, by the way.
00:52:16.520 You know what I mean?
00:52:17.700 That's actually very...
00:52:19.000 You know what I mean?
00:52:19.880 But here's another thing, Theo.
00:52:21.600 Like, how do we know this was even him writing this shit?
00:52:24.660 Oh, totally, dude.
00:52:25.040 How do we even know he was writing this shit?
00:52:27.060 This could be some twink that he met at the airport.
00:52:28.840 Or one of his handlers.
00:52:30.280 You don't fucking know.
00:52:31.160 He was probably a twink that he met at the airport.
00:52:33.100 Let's be realistic.
00:52:34.020 It's LA.
00:52:34.440 What does it say?
00:52:35.120 I just read that a man that I don't know is writing a script about bio...
00:52:37.960 I do not approve of this movie.
00:52:39.740 I'm in talks with a major studio to create my own biopic.
00:52:42.660 Meanwhile, you know, he passes.
00:52:45.480 Right.
00:52:45.740 So obviously, you got to read your own room of your life.
00:52:49.440 Like, if you're passing away...
00:52:51.320 You're not writing that type of stuff.
00:52:53.420 No.
00:52:53.880 You're fucking worried about trying to live.
00:52:55.560 Yeah, dude.
00:52:56.040 You're fucking counting T-cells, homie.
00:52:58.260 You're not over here fucking milling around your typewriter.
00:53:01.280 That's another thing I want to get to the bottom.
00:53:03.220 I want to get to the bottom line because, you know, I love Richard.
00:53:06.820 And I know Richard loves me.
00:53:08.060 And I know Richard loves my mom.
00:53:09.500 And I know that I don't have a fucking bad bone in my body.
00:53:12.320 Yeah.
00:53:12.680 And my come from is all about love and, you know, and putting it out in a positive,
00:53:18.220 positive way.
00:53:19.340 And I don't know and I don't believe that he's the one that wrote all this stuff.
00:53:23.760 That, you know...
00:53:24.740 And if anything, I got him out.
00:53:27.220 Meaning, like, I got him to just speak.
00:53:31.280 Yeah.
00:53:31.540 Because he'd been so recluse for so long.
00:53:33.900 Yeah, people hadn't heard from him in a long time.
00:53:35.600 Bring up some of the videos where he helped women lose some weight.
00:53:40.920 I mean, he was the first kind of...
00:53:44.040 Influencer.
00:53:45.240 He was like a professional wrestler that never wrestled but danced the fat off of the Midwest
00:53:50.900 and other parts of America.
00:53:52.860 And he made it fun.
00:53:54.080 Yes.
00:53:54.700 The Ellen stuff is great, yeah.
00:53:56.200 Yeah, there he is.
00:53:58.560 Look at that party off the pounds right there.
00:54:01.320 I remember my grandmother had party off the pounds, dude.
00:54:03.920 And I would sit and watch her move to this.
00:54:07.100 Hilarious.
00:54:07.580 Before she hated me, but still.
00:54:09.160 Look at him.
00:54:09.600 Oh, it's like Teletubbies, kind of.
00:54:25.160 Because he was chubby, too.
00:54:27.940 Yeah.
00:54:28.120 And you know what would happen is he would get involved with a relationship with, like,
00:54:32.680 an oversized woman.
00:54:34.580 And then after the woman lost all the weight, then Richard would just, like, give them the
00:54:38.840 Irish goodbye.
00:54:39.940 Really?
00:54:40.140 And just, like, spatch and just, like, peace out.
00:54:43.260 Like he only wanted them for their weight?
00:54:44.940 Yeah.
00:54:45.300 Just kind of wanted them while they were chubby.
00:54:49.040 And you're not talking about a sexual relationship?
00:54:50.540 No, no, no, no.
00:54:51.400 Not at all.
00:54:51.880 Just, like, you know, helping someone.
00:54:53.640 And now he-
00:54:54.120 You know, it's kind of like if you were chubby and I helped you and Pauly Shore helped you
00:54:57.500 and then all of a sudden I got you skinny.
00:54:59.820 And I'm, like, calling you.
00:55:00.520 And you're calling me and I'm, like, you know, I'm done with you.
00:55:03.260 Like, on to the next.
00:55:03.920 Like, Superman.
00:55:05.160 On to the next.
00:55:06.500 Yeah.
00:55:06.720 I needed somewhere else.
00:55:07.960 Yeah, exactly.
00:55:09.080 And he did do an Irish goodbye.
00:55:11.780 Now, he loved men, though.
00:55:13.880 I don't know if he did.
00:55:15.620 That's a good point.
00:55:16.360 Was he ever married?
00:55:17.320 Let's look that up.
00:55:18.080 No, he never really, you know, he never really was either or.
00:55:23.120 That's a great question.
00:55:24.100 Yeah.
00:55:24.700 And maybe he was just, like, a piece of moon rock or something.
00:55:28.500 Where he-
00:55:29.040 Born Milton Teagle Simmons down there in New Orleans, Louisiana, on July the 12th.
00:55:35.340 And he died July the 13th.
00:55:37.820 Hmm.
00:55:38.340 Did you ever see him when you were in Louisiana?
00:55:40.360 I never did.
00:55:41.240 No?
00:55:41.960 I met, I think, one of his great-granddaughters one time somewhere.
00:55:46.620 And she was trying to-
00:55:48.040 Come to one of your shows?
00:55:49.660 Trying to give me a BJ, honestly.
00:55:52.100 A G-J, G-J.
00:55:52.260 But this was, and that's, who knows what was going on.
00:55:56.020 But he went to ULL down there.
00:55:57.900 And then he went to Florida State University.
00:56:00.120 But no children, it says, I don't think, huh?
00:56:02.600 No, he had a whole bunch of dogs.
00:56:04.400 That was, like, his big thing.
00:56:06.080 But I remember as a kid growing up, like, when Richard Simmons was coming on Letterman or Howard Stern or Ellen, like, you would wait.
00:56:13.580 You know, like, when Letterman was like, yo, come out next, it's Richard Simmons.
00:56:17.040 You're like, oh, fuck.
00:56:17.800 And he would come out and he would just kill.
00:56:19.560 He would kill harder than a comedian.
00:56:21.180 Yeah.
00:56:21.520 Like, on the sofa.
00:56:22.720 He brought an energy with him.
00:56:24.280 He was a real piece of energy, that man.
00:56:26.060 Yeah.
00:56:27.140 Now, if it's homosexuality, would you ever, would you, you might, if you, would you be willing to do those type of scenes in it if you had to, to honor him?
00:56:34.260 If you were the other guy.
00:56:37.360 Oh, sorry.
00:56:38.220 Oh, sorry.
00:56:38.880 Oh, you're talking to me?
00:56:39.720 Yeah.
00:56:39.900 All right, dude.
00:56:41.080 Looks like I just got a part, huh?
00:56:42.760 The weasel?
00:56:44.100 And the rat, bro.
00:56:45.160 And the rat, right.
00:56:45.720 This is good.
00:56:46.880 That's cross-pollination, dude.
00:56:48.480 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:56:48.660 So you're acting, though, too.
00:56:50.080 You're in some movies and stuff.
00:56:51.420 Right?
00:56:51.780 No.
00:56:51.980 What do you like about acting?
00:56:53.320 You're trying to not talk about yourself, but that's okay.
00:56:56.460 That's sweet of you to change the subject, Paul.
00:56:58.200 You do a good job making it about other people.
00:57:01.860 I'm going to, David Spade and I wrote a movie and we're trying to get financing for it.
00:57:05.560 Huh.
00:57:06.640 Cool.
00:57:07.300 Have you acted a lot?
00:57:09.260 Yeah, some.
00:57:09.900 A little bit?
00:57:10.380 I like it.
00:57:10.860 I think I would only.
00:57:11.520 I love acting.
00:57:12.440 Acting's fucking hard.
00:57:13.560 Yeah.
00:57:13.740 Which I love.
00:57:14.600 Well, I mean, dude, in the 90s and early 2000s, you were, some people say the biggest star in
00:57:21.120 the world.
00:57:22.900 Did you feel like that?
00:57:24.320 In my 20s, yeah, I felt like that.
00:57:26.480 Because I was doing a lot.
00:57:27.440 I was doing a lot.
00:57:28.840 That's why I said to you at the comedy store, it was like six months ago, I said, you're
00:57:31.980 like me back when I was, you know, but you're in your 40s.
00:57:34.880 I was in my 20s.
00:57:35.940 I can't even imagine.
00:57:37.180 Yeah, it was crazy.
00:57:37.960 I did albums.
00:57:39.160 I did, you know, movies, HBO specials.
00:57:42.440 What helped you get your break?
00:57:43.820 Do you feel like your mom helped you?
00:57:45.500 No.
00:57:45.600 Do you feel like it was only, is that a weird question?
00:57:47.120 I don't mean to be rude.
00:57:48.000 No.
00:57:48.400 No, that's not rude at all.
00:57:49.440 I don't know.
00:57:50.120 No.
00:57:50.960 No, MTV.
00:57:52.520 Oh, I know that.
00:57:52.980 But my mom didn't get me on MTV.
00:57:54.520 I got me on MTV.
00:57:55.620 Yeah.
00:57:55.840 Oh, 100%.
00:57:56.440 I mean, they saw me and they're like, fuck, this kid's funny.
00:57:59.140 And I got on MTV and it just, it took off.
00:58:01.680 And then from there, Jeffrey Katzenberg found me and he was running Disney at the time.
00:58:05.920 Oh.
00:58:06.240 And he fucking just wrote all these movies for me and they all did well for me.
00:58:09.660 Do you remember like, would they come and see you at the store?
00:58:11.540 Did you have to go to meetings?
00:58:12.340 What was that like?
00:58:13.220 Both.
00:58:13.700 Both.
00:58:14.120 I had my manager, Michael Rotenberg from Three Arts.
00:58:16.420 That was your manager?
00:58:17.360 Yeah, for eight years.
00:58:18.240 Yeah.
00:58:18.360 He was my manager the whole time.
00:58:19.720 Michael's a cool dude.
00:58:20.700 Really fucking cool.
00:58:21.560 That's my homie.
00:58:22.180 What's up, Michael?
00:58:23.440 What's up, Michael?
00:58:24.140 What's up, Michael Rotenberg?
00:58:25.120 I call him Crisco.
00:58:26.540 You do?
00:58:27.120 Crisco, because he's so greasy, bro.
00:58:30.660 Rotenberg is cool, man.
00:58:32.380 I like his, we have a similar sense of humor.
00:58:35.920 Yeah, so he ran my shit, him and Adam Bennett from CAA.
00:58:40.920 Yeah.
00:58:41.280 Yeah, CAA ran my stuff for those.
00:58:44.240 It was like Willy Wonka.
00:58:45.800 I'm sorry I asked you if your mom helped you get it.
00:58:48.200 No, I don't care.
00:58:49.100 I know this wasn't cool, though.
00:58:50.520 Okay, well, you can cut that part out.
00:58:51.880 You can leave it in.
00:58:52.600 I just feel a little bad.
00:58:53.600 I just, I don't know why I said that.
00:58:56.980 Well, I guess it's a hard business, and people take whatever, whoever can help you, sometimes
00:59:01.400 it's good.
00:59:02.020 Yeah.
00:59:02.380 Not that you didn't stand, here's what I meant.
00:59:03.900 It's not that you didn't stand on your own talent.
00:59:05.520 That's what I mean.
00:59:06.080 Yeah.
00:59:06.980 I think what we need to do is take a silence.
00:59:09.380 You know how like you sound like if someone dies?
00:59:11.220 Yeah.
00:59:11.580 You do a silence, and then, you know.
00:59:14.280 Yeah, and let's put these hats on, too.
00:59:15.740 Yeah, yeah, hats and the glasses.
00:59:17.620 Yeah.
00:59:17.820 Just for asking me if my mom got me in the show business.
00:59:20.840 All right.
00:59:21.280 Let's just take a time for a, you know what I mean?
00:59:24.040 Yeah, let's do five seconds, huh?
00:59:25.380 Just like, but you gotta breathe.
00:59:26.980 Think of ayahuasca.
00:59:28.120 I know we do that sometimes up in the hills.
00:59:30.060 You know, here we go.
00:59:30.800 Theo and myself are taking a little moment to get that energy out of the room that he
00:59:41.000 put in there, thinking that my mom, Mitzi Shore, the owner of the biggest comedy club in
00:59:45.580 the world, got me my break in the entertainment business.
00:59:49.980 Wait, there's still some bad energy.
00:59:52.100 Just anything, Theo, you want to add or?
00:59:55.420 BLM, homie.
00:59:58.640 Okay, we got it out.
00:59:59.920 That was good.
01:00:00.800 All right.
01:00:02.000 No, but it was just, it was, they saw me do stand-up.
01:00:07.960 They saw, do, you know, I would, MTV.
01:00:12.200 All right, but was there a call that you got one ear and like, okay, this is getting fucking
01:00:15.900 crazy.
01:00:16.640 Well, after Encino Man came out, and it was a big hit for me, and then we rolled into
01:00:20.740 Son-in-Law, and it was just like, boom, boom, and they brought me around the world.
01:00:24.220 You know, you know what I used to do, I used to do when I used to, when we used to do shows,
01:00:30.580 I used to never have people sitting.
01:00:32.740 It was always festival seating.
01:00:34.680 So I always had like a band open for me, like the Spin Doctors.
01:00:37.660 They would open for me, and then I would come out and do 45 minutes, people standing, and
01:00:46.040 in between my jokes, I would stage dive.
01:00:48.700 Yeah.
01:00:49.520 Oh, and then just come back to the stage.
01:00:50.940 I would stage dive, and then I would come back, and then do more jokes.
01:01:00.060 That's kind of how it was.
01:01:01.740 But it was called festival seating.
01:01:03.560 You remember when I was a kid, you'd go to those concerts.
01:01:05.340 Oh, yeah.
01:01:05.920 Where there's no seats.
01:01:07.560 Yeah, I love how they call it festival seating.
01:01:09.600 There's nobody's seats.
01:01:10.740 There's no seats.
01:01:12.000 And then we would, and then I'd bring the band back out, and then I would sing songs.
01:01:16.340 Yeah.
01:01:16.560 And I had like this one song that was a hit song on MTV called Lisa Lisa, the one I adore.
01:01:21.280 Do you remember it?
01:01:22.320 I don't.
01:01:22.900 I'm a stony, crusty dude with a mop on top.
01:01:26.320 My melon's fully tweaked, but I'll never stop.
01:01:29.280 Stop trying to wheeze the nugs from coast to coast.
01:01:32.760 The ones with the cones are the ones I dig the most.
01:01:35.780 Sing Lisa Lisa.
01:01:37.520 Lisa Lisa.
01:01:39.020 Stony body major.
01:01:41.440 Stony body major.
01:01:43.320 Yeah, that's how we do it.
01:01:44.080 Yeah, I didn't remember it, man.
01:01:45.380 It sounds pretty good.
01:01:46.540 It was pretty cool.
01:01:49.140 Did anybody ever remake it?
01:01:50.940 There it is.
01:01:52.820 Turn that shit up.
01:01:53.520 Crank that shit.
01:01:54.340 Whoa, look at the fucking lamb butts on her.
01:01:56.760 Turn it up.
01:01:57.460 Look at this shit.
01:02:00.100 Here we go.
01:02:03.760 Look at this.
01:02:04.560 I'm a stony, crusty dude with a mop on top.
01:02:08.620 My melon's fully tweaked, but I'll never stop.
01:02:11.780 Stop trying to wheeze the nugs.
01:02:13.620 Come on.
01:02:14.480 Stick host.
01:02:15.620 The ones with the cones are the ones I dig the most.
01:02:18.760 Lisa Lisa.
01:02:20.640 Lisa Lisa.
01:02:21.820 Make sure.
01:02:25.740 Lisa Lisa.
01:02:27.340 Oh.
01:02:28.340 I'm about to do.
01:02:30.600 Bro, it seems like, hold on.
01:02:31.840 It seems like you just made this video so you could smash a lot of these chicks, bro.
01:02:35.520 Be honest, dude.
01:02:36.700 No, it was a song based off of my ex-girlfriend.
01:02:39.560 Yeah, have you seen the front nuts on that one lady, dude?
01:02:41.960 Yeah.
01:02:42.200 You're odd, huh?
01:02:43.340 She was in the Firehouse video.
01:02:45.080 Really?
01:02:45.480 Remember Firehouse?
01:02:46.480 I'd fucking burn a house down to fucking.
01:02:48.520 I know.
01:02:49.320 She was.
01:02:49.740 Dude, yeah.
01:02:50.300 If you put a hose.
01:02:51.260 Yeah.
01:02:51.760 I'd hose them things off for sure.
01:02:53.520 She was cute.
01:02:54.160 She seemed like a great woman.
01:02:55.160 That's what I meant.
01:02:56.180 Yes.
01:02:57.160 But, yeah.
01:02:58.320 And did you ever make love to this woman?
01:03:01.240 I'm not sure.
01:03:02.500 I think we hung.
01:03:03.620 Your name was Heather.
01:03:04.640 Heather.
01:03:05.000 Heather Parkhurst.
01:03:05.860 Very, very cool.
01:03:06.900 Cool, cool friend.
01:03:08.640 Very cool friend.
01:03:09.860 Okay.
01:03:10.660 I'm just saying.
01:03:11.320 She was.
01:03:13.260 She was cool.
01:03:14.020 I believe all that.
01:03:14.740 Dude, you know where we used to go?
01:03:16.000 That was fucking insane.
01:03:17.700 Yeah, tell me that.
01:03:18.400 Holy fuck, dude.
01:03:19.640 Let's put our hats on real quick, too.
01:03:21.160 Yeah, our hat goes back on.
01:03:22.600 Fuck, dude.
01:03:23.560 It was Don Barris was the host.
01:03:27.300 Fuck, what was it called?
01:03:28.280 I wonder if it was called the Middle Evening at the Sinking of the Cerebellum.
01:03:35.080 No, it was Ding Dong Show.
01:03:37.080 No, not the Ding Dong Show.
01:03:38.340 This is way before.
01:03:39.660 This was, fuck, I forgot the name.
01:03:41.220 It wasn't like Retard Wednesdays or something.
01:03:43.080 No, it was Mud Wrestling.
01:03:45.680 Oh.
01:03:45.920 It was Mud Wrestling.
01:03:47.400 It was the Tropicana.
01:03:48.740 Oh, in Vegas.
01:03:49.540 No, the Tropicana here in Hollywood.
01:03:51.520 It was right off of Hollywood Boulevard.
01:03:54.260 I didn't even know it.
01:03:54.380 But he used to host this thing, and the girls would come out, and it would be Mud Wrestling.
01:03:58.840 Yeah.
01:03:59.140 And Don hosted it.
01:04:02.100 It was fucking hilarious, dude.
01:04:04.160 He had, uh, Don is, uh, Don is, yeah, I wouldn't f*** Don, that's for sure.
01:04:11.660 No, but it was a big deal.
01:04:13.580 I mean, I bless him.
01:04:14.500 I wouldn't f*** him because he's a man.
01:04:15.780 That's why.
01:04:16.440 But Mud Wrestling was a big deal back in the 90s.
01:04:18.360 That's what I mean, yeah.
01:04:20.360 That's how it was, yeah.
01:04:21.780 Do you think, um, you think Trump will be the next president?
01:04:26.100 Mm.
01:04:26.340 I don't want to say anything.
01:04:31.000 I mean, I don't want to say anything about it.
01:04:33.200 I like watching it and just kind of being a fan of, uh, the, the political, um.
01:04:38.580 Theater.
01:04:38.880 Theater.
01:04:39.340 Yeah, that's a good point.
01:04:39.660 Like just watching it and not know.
01:04:41.820 I mean, no one knows what the f***'s gonna happen.
01:04:43.920 But I know there's gonna be some, it's gonna be, it's gonna be a real fight.
01:04:47.720 It's kind of like UFC fight, but for, for, you know, because it's basically, they're fighting
01:04:51.900 for the most powerful job in the world.
01:04:53.660 So they're gonna go after each other pretty f***ing hard.
01:04:56.480 Yeah.
01:04:56.800 I mean, and they're completely different.
01:04:59.360 I mean, she's like a prosecutor for like sex trafficking or something.
01:05:03.100 Isn't she?
01:05:03.820 Yeah.
01:05:04.700 I mean, I don't know.
01:05:05.640 Isn't she like San Francisco?
01:05:06.180 I don't know.
01:05:06.620 I thought she was an undercover cop or something.
01:05:08.600 What was her original job?
01:05:10.340 She was a district attorney previously.
01:05:12.500 District attorney.
01:05:13.420 But didn't she, like, she, wasn't she a prosecutor?
01:05:17.720 Yes.
01:05:18.280 Like, so she would prosecute on behalf of, I think, like, uh, the Bay Area.
01:05:22.180 Oh, like CSI?
01:05:24.260 I don't know.
01:05:25.780 Huh.
01:05:26.220 Yeah, I don't know.
01:05:26.860 But, but either way, she's, she's, you know, she's, uh, not a fan of Trump.
01:05:31.160 Right.
01:05:31.520 So they're gonna, yeah, it's gonna be a good bout.
01:05:32.880 And he's not a fan of hers.
01:05:34.560 So it's gonna be fun to watch.
01:05:36.380 Did you ever get to party with Trump back in the day anyway?
01:05:38.300 I did see him a lot.
01:05:39.640 Yeah?
01:05:39.980 Back in the day.
01:05:40.320 Yeah.
01:05:40.600 And what kind of guy did he seem like?
01:05:41.180 Like, if he saw me, he would fucking laugh.
01:05:43.440 Yeah.
01:05:43.860 Like, he'd be like, fuck, Pauly Shore.
01:05:45.520 He'd be like, you're still alive?
01:05:46.640 What the fuck?
01:05:47.440 How the fuck are you still around?
01:05:48.880 He was cool.
01:05:49.720 He was, um, the first time I used to see him was in Daytona Beach.
01:05:53.700 And this was back in the 90s.
01:05:55.160 And this was when we did, um, Spring Break for MTV and all that.
01:05:58.440 And you had Rodney Dangerfield.
01:05:59.940 Vince Neil was down there.
01:06:00.840 John Lovitz.
01:06:01.860 And Ron Rice was the owner of Hawaiian Tropics.
01:06:04.500 That's when the hard tits came out.
01:06:06.020 Remember that?
01:06:06.320 Yeah.
01:06:06.740 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:06:08.040 Remember when hard-ass tits came out?
01:06:09.920 And Fabio, remember Fabio?
01:06:11.860 Yeah.
01:06:12.320 He was around, that was around, like, out.
01:06:13.860 People would look at my tits and they look like, you get,
01:06:16.460 Yeah.
01:06:17.480 Like, you go like that.
01:06:18.100 It was like,
01:06:18.820 Yeah, yeah.
01:06:19.620 Like, and he touched it and fucking squeaked.
01:06:22.520 Yeah.
01:06:22.780 Like, damn, what did they make out of fucking-
01:06:24.240 Yeah, and they would, they would, they would, like, lean over and you'd see these, like,
01:06:28.020 bags, they'd be hanging out.
01:06:29.420 Yeah.
01:06:29.860 And they would look like, yeah, they, it was like, um, it was almost like somebody was,
01:06:34.320 like, had made them out of, like, dish gloves or something.
01:06:36.360 Like, they were like-
01:06:37.240 Right.
01:06:38.240 Like, they, like, if you put, if you pulled a shirt on them on them, you could hear them,
01:06:41.060 like, it was just like, damn, bitches are plastic, bro.
01:06:46.480 Yeah.
01:06:46.720 Yeah.
01:06:46.920 And this one girl, I was dating this one girl, her boobs started moving, bro.
01:06:50.100 Oh, yeah.
01:06:50.780 Yeah, this one, he wound up on her back.
01:06:52.520 Oh, wow.
01:06:52.980 But it was cool, though, because when I was doing Behind Doggy Style, they're right there,
01:06:56.120 bro.
01:06:56.300 Easy access.
01:07:00.360 Chinese.
01:07:01.840 Chinese is cool.
01:07:02.820 Chinese is good, dude.
01:07:03.760 Chinese is cool.
01:07:04.280 So, yeah, so that's right.
01:07:05.300 And some of that, there's the moon, too.
01:07:06.780 Wherever the moon is, that's what's neat about some of those, when wherever the moon is,
01:07:10.460 that's where their tits will go.

01:07:27.100 Mm.
01:07:27.720 Yeah.
01:07:28.200 And that's beautiful.
01:07:29.560 A lot of you guys know we started off with our first advertiser ever was Gray Block Pizza.
01:07:35.580 Get that hitter, baby.
01:07:36.920 And the owner of Gray Block Pizza, my friend Thomas, evolved his business up in Oregon
01:07:43.840 to start Blue Cube Baths, and he sent me one, and it's absolutely beautiful.
01:07:50.760 A wonderful cold plunge, the best cold plunge in the market.
01:07:54.040 If you value American-made and pinnacle cold exposure, this is your cold plunge, Blue Cube
01:08:02.860 Baths.
01:08:03.860 What I love is you can set that temperature, get it down to, I mean, it might just, you
01:08:11.140 might be able to ice skate in there.
01:08:13.060 I haven't put it that low, but you can set it to a place where you feel comfortable.
01:08:16.920 I'll get in at around 50 degrees for about 10 or 12 minutes, and that's what really sets
01:08:21.740 me and activates me.
01:08:23.480 I've done it before podcasts to really put me in, just put me in my body and put me in
01:08:29.240 the moment.
01:08:29.620 But, you know, the positive side effects of cold plunging are countless.
01:08:35.760 You can follow Blue Cube's Instagram for a chance to win your own cold plunge this spring
01:08:41.220 and summer.
01:08:41.940 That's right.
01:08:42.740 They're giving one away.
01:08:44.460 They will announce the giveaway soon.
01:08:46.620 So follow them at Blue Cube Baths.
01:08:50.200 And we wish them the best of luck and thank them for supporting the podcast so early on.
01:08:57.200 But, yeah, I would see him at the Daytona Beach, like the Hawaiian Tropic parties.
01:09:02.160 What do you seem like?
01:09:03.100 This is my number one thing about Donald Trump, right?
01:09:05.360 I've met him a few times, but not had a chance to really engage with him, right?
01:09:09.360 So you get an idea of him, but you're always like, well, what is he like?
01:09:12.980 Like, you know, like you, if I never got to talk to you, I would have, you know, some
01:09:17.800 general thoughts, but I wouldn't really know, well, what is he like?
01:09:21.020 Like, do you know what he's like?
01:09:22.200 Like, is he like a business guy?
01:09:24.900 Is he just like a fun guy that plays tennis?
01:09:27.420 Like, I think I wish I knew more about how he is.
01:09:30.900 Does that make any sense?
01:09:31.800 Yeah.
01:09:32.080 No, I never had those type of conversations where I'm like, oh, yeah, I remember one time we
01:09:36.320 talked about this.
01:09:37.180 It was always like, kind of like when I'd see Hugh Hefner, I would never really engage
01:09:41.560 in a conversation with him.
01:09:43.060 I'd always kind of wave, shake his hand, you know what I mean?
01:09:45.880 So with Trump, it was like the same thing.
01:09:47.620 Do you miss those parties over there?
01:09:49.060 Was that fun?
01:09:49.960 It was fun because it was before the whole social media thing, but it's kind of like,
01:09:53.680 even driving down Sunset Boulevard now, it's fucking depressing.
01:09:57.260 You know, the store is the only thing that's fucking popping.
01:10:00.060 You know what I mean?
01:10:00.780 Yeah, a lot of shit is just fucking insane.
01:10:02.040 Yeah, but you drive down Sunset on a Saturday night, there's nothing.
01:10:05.520 It's just tumbleweed.
01:10:06.620 It is quiet, huh?
01:10:08.260 People don't go out anymore because people are scared.
01:10:11.240 They don't want to be around the photos and the videos and, you know what I mean?
01:10:14.300 So the parties are in the house.
01:10:16.220 People stay in.
01:10:17.400 And also COVID as well, people shifted and stayed in that.
01:10:21.500 Unlike if you go to Texas or Florida where people don't give a fuck.
01:10:24.680 Oh, the second I got to Tennessee, yeah, people were spitting in each other's mouths and shit.
01:10:28.680 Like, you know what I'm saying?
01:10:29.700 The kind of shit America's about, you know?
01:10:31.860 Yeah.
01:10:32.800 Recycling.
01:10:33.360 But here in L.A., it's just like, it's, you know.
01:10:37.380 It has gotten quieter, huh?
01:10:38.700 Yeah.
01:10:39.200 The word is joy.
01:10:41.160 There's not a lot of joy in, like, Hollywood anymore.
01:10:44.520 There's no, like, fun.
01:10:45.980 Although Silver Lake, Echo Park, Los Feliz, Hipsters, those are fucking fun, dude.
01:10:52.420 Like, that whole area, East Hollywood, it's fucking, it's fun.
01:10:55.720 Yeah.
01:10:55.960 Yeah, it is interesting that Hollywood, it's kind of quieter now.
01:10:59.080 Yeah.
01:10:59.660 And even when I went to, I went to.
01:11:01.560 Like, where is everybody?
01:11:03.120 They're not going out.
01:11:04.580 Or they moved.
01:11:06.160 They moved.
01:11:06.840 And even just in your life, have you seen it just change so much?
01:11:10.820 I think after COVID, you know, after COVID and all that, that whole, it just shifted into, you know, a different time.
01:11:18.800 Because when Rogan and them were at the store, that was crazy, too.
01:11:21.280 Remember that?
01:11:22.120 I mean, you go on a Tuesday night, bro, and it was insane.
01:11:25.120 Yeah.
01:11:26.100 Here's a video there.
01:11:26.840 Just how bad Hollywood is?
01:11:27.980 What is this?
01:11:28.560 This is a guy saying how bad it is in Hollywood.
01:11:30.140 It's not fun.
01:11:30.520 It's not joyful.
01:11:31.120 He's talking about just the industry and what they're making right now.
01:11:34.880 So I wonder if that's having an effect.
01:11:36.140 It's pretty bad here in Hollywood.
01:11:37.120 And now we have some numbers to back it up.
01:11:40.140 Film LA has just released their report on on-location and stage-based production data.
01:11:47.240 Let's take a look at what this means.
01:11:49.560 Production in LA is down.
01:11:53.080 Way, way, way down.
01:11:55.400 From just last year, feature films are down 3%, 3.3%, versus a five-year average.
01:12:02.080 As we know things were bad already, it is 23.8% down.
01:12:05.620 Commercials are even worse.
01:12:06.540 Over a five-year average, 36.1% down.
01:12:09.040 Television is down 45.8%.
01:12:11.600 And whatever other is, is down 20%.
01:12:14.180 So like industrial films, short films, just everything.
01:12:16.500 Reality TV looks insane.
01:12:18.820 The purple line here is reality.
01:12:20.880 There's COVID.
01:12:22.140 There's the strike.
01:12:23.420 There's where reality TV is in LA right now.
01:12:26.300 So as you can see, just across the board, everything is down.
01:12:29.080 All in all, versus a five-year average, production shoot days in Los Angeles, California, the home of the film industry, are down 33.4%.
01:12:37.400 Wow.
01:12:38.000 So I got a little curious when I went to the Bureau of Labor Statistics to get the numbers on unemployment rates in the motion picture and television industry.
01:12:44.000 Now, they do lump the sound recording industries in with this.
01:12:46.360 But as you can see, it's not good.
01:12:48.680 That is a 16.1% unemployment rate in the motion picture and television industry.
01:12:54.400 And that is from June.
01:12:55.340 So that is not counting the massive layoffs that just occurred again at Warner Brothers Discovery.
01:12:59.820 And it's definitely not counting all the ones that are about to come.
01:13:02.240 Yeah, but so, I mean.
01:13:03.340 They're just interesting.
01:13:04.000 And I'm not saying all this is like exact.
01:13:05.760 But I was just, I saw this the other day and I was like, wow, yeah, I wonder if there's just not as many people here as well.
01:13:10.820 Well, it's also the business has shifted.
01:13:12.880 Yeah.
01:13:13.280 You know, the business has shifted to this.
01:13:15.200 I mean, look how many millions of people watch you doing this.
01:13:19.760 You know what I mean?
01:13:20.240 So it's not, you know, everything.
01:13:21.580 And look at the OnlyFans girls.
01:13:23.380 I mean, you probably know a lot of women that, you know, back in the day, if you were a pretty girl and you had to come to L.A., you're Maxim, Playboy, Penthouse, Hustler, FHM.
01:13:33.500 Right.
01:13:33.780 And that was it.
01:13:34.320 You had to get in one of those.
01:13:35.480 Now, no one needs those.
01:13:37.500 And now you've got all these influencers doing and making money.
01:13:40.260 So everything has shifted, you know.
01:13:42.340 So I think since 2015, 16, 17, you know, the business has shifted.
01:13:47.520 And then guys like Mark Wahlberg moved to Vegas.
01:13:49.960 So they're starting to do a whole studio out there.
01:13:52.840 Make their own thing.
01:13:53.980 Yeah, doing their own thing.
01:13:54.800 So people are saying like, hey, you don't need to live in L.A.
01:13:57.520 And especially because everyone's in a Zoom world now.
01:14:01.060 You know, no one goes to fucking meetings anymore.
01:14:02.940 I feel bad for people that own office buildings.
01:14:05.700 Yeah.
01:14:05.880 I mean, think about it.
01:14:07.240 I mean, how big of a nut is that CAA building?
01:14:11.520 You've been in there.
01:14:12.400 Yeah.
01:14:12.920 It's fucking massive.
01:14:14.200 It's huge in there.
01:14:15.300 You know how much that is for rent?
01:14:17.480 And the agent's probably like, I don't feel like going in.
01:14:19.600 I'm going to get sick or I'm going to stay home.
01:14:21.940 And they just let them.
01:14:23.720 Look at that.
01:14:24.780 Yeah.
01:14:25.020 And then a lot of new agencies kind of started up when social media started.
01:14:32.160 Or when TikTok and people popped off on Instagram, they joined groups like Shots.
01:14:37.520 Have you heard of them?
01:14:39.340 Who owned Shots or who started Shots?
01:14:42.580 S-H-O-T-S.
01:14:44.780 But it's the Wild West.
01:14:46.340 But that became like the agency.
01:14:47.620 It was like a new, you know what I'm saying?
01:14:48.860 Because CAA and they weren't even on board.
01:14:51.240 You know, different agencies weren't even seeing this sort of thing.
01:14:53.460 You know?
01:14:57.060 Yeah.
01:14:57.560 So, I mean.
01:14:58.240 There you go.
01:14:59.160 You know.
01:15:00.040 Shots Podcast Network.
01:15:02.940 Shots Podcast Network is a company.
01:15:05.020 Oh, founded by John Shahidi.
01:15:06.380 I didn't even know that.
01:15:06.860 And Sam Shahidi.
01:15:07.420 I know these guys.
01:15:08.040 The company was originally founded as a software development company in 2009.
01:15:13.800 In November 2019, Spotify announced a suite of podcasts and included a partnership with Shots Podcast Network.
01:15:19.940 But yes, groups like Shots became the representatives for a lot of talent.
01:15:27.600 And so they weren't even working with the agents, you know, the original agencies anymore, the big agencies.
01:15:31.820 Yeah.
01:15:32.240 You know, it's.
01:15:33.560 It's changed.
01:15:34.700 It's completely changed.
01:15:36.240 Yeah.
01:15:36.380 The other day someone was like, you want to be in a movie?
01:15:37.940 And I was like, is it going to be 40 seconds long?
01:15:40.180 Is it.
01:15:40.500 And is it going to be on TikTok?
01:15:42.100 That's hilarious.
01:15:43.140 Yeah.
01:15:44.000 Kids can't even watch a movie without taking a pill now.
01:15:46.560 Some kids.
01:15:47.340 They're like, mom, give me two pills.
01:15:48.560 I'm going to watch a movie.
01:15:49.420 Give me half a kilo.
01:15:50.080 No, I can't.
01:15:50.720 That's the same with me.
01:15:51.580 I got to have a pill when I watch my movies, too.
01:15:55.020 No, but it's true.
01:15:56.240 Like, you know, you watch, you know, you're watching the news and then you're watching your Netflix.
01:16:01.240 Then you're on your Instagram.
01:16:02.320 Yeah.
01:16:02.560 And you're looking at your thing.
01:16:04.020 It's fucked up.
01:16:05.060 But it is the way it is.
01:16:06.120 It's like he's got us.
01:16:07.360 Steve Jobs got us.
01:16:08.560 He won, huh?
01:16:09.120 Yeah.
01:16:09.380 He got us.
01:16:10.420 I mean, we're basically, we're this.
01:16:13.040 And it's just the way it is.
01:16:15.040 You know what I mean?
01:16:15.740 And the wildest part, Pauly, I think one thing is that some people for years have been like,
01:16:22.140 you think we'll live forever.
01:16:23.080 You think there'll be a time where we'll live forever.
01:16:24.660 And now I do, but it's not in the way we think.
01:16:27.220 It's going to be in a digitized way.
01:16:29.540 It's like eventually from this episode alone, they'll be able to make a you and a me that
01:16:35.340 can exist in some virtual world where you could talk to us anytime.
01:16:40.040 This is good.
01:16:40.640 We could be in Japan tomorrow.
01:16:42.100 Oh, yeah.
01:16:42.660 This is the sonar.
01:16:43.920 Hey, yeah.
01:16:45.180 Sayonara.
01:16:45.740 Sayonara.
01:16:46.860 Los tits.
01:16:47.760 Sayonara.
01:16:48.080 Los tits.
01:16:49.460 You know, it's about the numbers.
01:16:51.200 It's about the eyeballs.
01:16:52.460 You know, you, Joe, Tony, Shane Gillis, you know, all these guys, like you fucking tapped
01:16:58.020 into it.
01:16:58.940 You know what I mean?
01:16:59.820 Yeah.
01:17:00.000 I mean, you don't need all that shit because at the end of the day, everyone's coming after
01:17:03.680 you now.
01:17:04.680 I mean, they see the tickets you're selling.
01:17:06.540 They see the numbers that this is.
01:17:08.760 You know what I mean?
01:17:09.400 It's fucking crazy.
01:17:10.580 Like if you wanted to star in your own Theo Vaughn series, like fucking everybody, what's the
01:17:15.520 guy?
01:17:15.680 Everybody loves Randy or whatever?
01:17:18.360 You know what I mean?
01:17:18.620 Yeah.
01:17:18.760 The Randy Redwood.
01:17:20.180 No, the fucking.
01:17:21.380 Rick Springfield in it?
01:17:22.820 Who was in it?
01:17:24.040 No.

01:17:50.920 No, that guy was a BLM activist, dude.
01:17:54.540 Look at this guy.
01:17:55.700 How great would this be?
01:17:56.800 We could do fucking Theo Saves Christmas.
01:18:00.000 Theo fucking goes to, you know, on vacation.
01:18:01.700 Theo Saves $40, too.
01:18:03.440 Chinese, go to his IMDB.

01:18:13.200 Ernest Saves Christmas.
01:18:14.720 Ernest Goes to Camp.

01:18:17.640 Fucking Theo Saves Christmas.
01:18:20.060 Theo Goes to Jail.
01:18:21.200 Ernest Goes to Rehab, I could do.
01:18:23.520 You know what I'm saying, dude?
01:18:24.660 Dude, Ernest Goes to Detox.
01:18:26.540 Dude, I would do a series of these, bro.
01:18:28.580 That's what I'm saying, dude.

01:18:37.000 Theo Goes to the Army.
01:18:38.600 This is you, bro.
01:18:39.700 If Ernest Goes to Africa, Ernest Goes to the AIDS Clinic, dude, probably.
01:18:43.780 I'm guessing, and no offense to Africa, those are rumors, and a lot of that's on Reddit.
01:18:48.400 So what do you think?
01:18:49.440 I mean, this is, we can just, can you guys, can you guys Photoshop Theo's head on top of his head?
01:18:53.700 Well, that's the thing, Pauly.
01:18:54.680 They're just going to be able to, as long as they license you or whatever, they can put you in a movie, dude.
01:18:59.080 But yeah, but we got to do it for you.
01:19:00.420 You're hot right now.
01:19:01.720 This could be good.
01:19:02.860 Scroll up to the top.
01:19:04.580 Yeah, you don't want to fucking do a David Spade movie.
01:19:06.700 Do a fucking Theo Scared of Stupid.
01:19:11.400 Theo Scared of Stupid is perfect.
01:19:14.060 I mean, you could just do your face.
01:19:15.540 Put his face back up there.
01:19:17.340 Put his dumb face.
01:19:18.440 Dude, can you do black face in the future?
01:19:20.220 Let's be honest.
01:19:20.660 No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:19:21.620 We don't want to do that.
01:19:22.500 Here, put his face back up.
01:19:23.800 Not now, dude.
01:19:24.920 Look at this.
01:19:25.640 Wait, here we go.
01:19:26.000 At least we should be able to do Native American face, right?
01:19:28.820 Yeah, see this guy.
01:19:29.640 Do this face right here.
01:19:30.620 Do it.
01:19:31.880 Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
01:19:33.420 Hold on.
01:19:34.360 Yeah.
01:19:36.860 I mean, that's a fucking hit, dude.
01:19:38.820 I don't know.
01:19:39.680 I don't think we look anything alike.
01:19:41.480 You got to do a series of movies.
01:19:43.180 This is great.
01:19:43.940 It's perfect timing.
01:19:44.740 I don't know, man.
01:19:46.600 Go straight to YouTube.
01:19:47.440 I'm here each week.
01:19:49.700 But maybe, I don't know.
01:19:50.980 I mean, the thing about space, I notice it's like, this is what I heard about movies.
01:19:54.100 It's fun if you're with your friends, dude.
01:19:56.580 And if you have to be somewhere, stuck somewhere for a while and it's not your friend or you
01:20:01.360 want to sit there every night and have dinner with, then it just seems like it's not as
01:20:04.440 fun, you know?
01:20:05.400 Yeah.
01:20:05.760 That's why I could never be in that movie because Dave's in it.
01:20:08.260 Really?
01:20:08.540 We're not friends.
01:20:09.460 Y'all aren't?
01:20:09.920 No, fuck that guy.
01:20:10.700 No, I'm just kidding.
01:20:11.240 Oh.
01:20:11.680 No, he's my friend.
01:20:12.520 I met him.
01:20:13.460 You know I met him.
01:20:14.780 I did a movie with George Burns.
01:20:16.980 No way.
01:20:17.700 From the Gods Must Be Crazy?
01:20:19.200 No, it's called 18 Again.
01:20:21.280 George Burns.
01:20:21.880 You remember George Burns?
01:20:22.920 Yeah, from the Gods Must Be Crazy, wasn't he?
01:20:24.500 The old guy.
01:20:25.360 Here, put up George Burns, 18 Again, right there.
01:20:28.760 So this is George Burns.
01:20:30.340 This was my first movie ever.
01:20:31.760 George Burns was a comedian back in the day.
01:20:34.240 Oh, yeah.
01:20:34.500 I know he was George Burns.
01:20:35.580 He lived about 98 years old.
01:20:37.000 Yeah, that guy.
01:20:37.940 So I did this movie.
01:20:38.960 See this guy on the left?
01:20:40.040 His name's Charlie Schlatter.
01:20:41.200 So I played Charlie Schlatter's best friend in 18 Again.
01:20:46.140 Oh.
01:20:47.180 I didn't know that.
01:20:47.320 Yeah, so that's where I met George Burns, and that's when I met David Spade, because David
01:20:51.040 Spade was best friends with Charlie Schlatter.
01:20:53.320 So I've known David Spade since I was 19.
01:20:55.560 Wow.
01:20:56.120 Yeah.
01:20:56.300 David's always, I mean, how has he always had so much luck with the ladies?
01:20:59.500 Be honest, man.
01:21:01.220 I don't know.
01:21:02.000 He's sexy.
01:21:03.340 Oh, David's a close friend of mine.
01:21:05.360 I think he's handsome.
01:21:06.740 He's one of the funniest guys.
01:21:08.440 Yes.
01:21:08.960 But how did he get so much?
01:21:10.140 I mean, there's a lot of guys that are like that.
01:21:13.000 That's true.
01:21:13.160 Not like him.
01:21:13.740 He's special.
01:21:14.460 Mm-hmm.
01:21:15.020 But how did the guys, you know?
01:21:17.440 Yeah, he's good.
01:21:19.140 He's like the David Copperfield of straight dudes, man.
01:21:21.980 Yeah.
01:21:23.360 He's a gorgeous man.
01:21:25.500 Yeah.
01:21:26.000 He's a gorgeous man.
01:21:27.420 Well, is that true?
01:21:28.680 I don't know.
01:21:29.120 There you go.
01:21:29.720 See?
01:21:31.360 You got to put Theo goes to school, though.
01:21:33.700 Yeah, these guys are fired.
01:21:35.140 Yeah.
01:21:35.460 You know what I'm saying?
01:21:36.600 Yeah.
01:21:37.100 Look.
01:21:37.460 Look, they have one shot.
01:21:38.660 They left Ernest on the thing, dude.
01:21:42.580 Yeah.
01:21:43.240 I'm joking.
01:21:43.820 I'm joking, man.
01:21:45.120 Oh, put Theo goes to BLM rally, too, dude.
01:21:48.000 I'll fucking roll up at that bitch, dude.
01:21:50.360 Huh?
01:21:50.920 I say we do a series of fucking Ernest movies and just change it to Theo and just do the
01:21:55.560 same fucking script.
01:21:57.260 No one's going to know.
01:21:58.180 The kids aren't going to remember this fucking guy.
01:22:00.220 Dude, most people can't even see that far.
01:22:02.240 How far can people see usually?
01:22:05.200 What do you mean?
01:22:05.800 I'm just saying, like, how far can somebody see?
01:22:12.500 What does that mean?
01:22:13.740 The average sight distance for a person with normal vision is about three miles.
01:22:17.140 Get fucked, dude.
01:22:18.860 When standing on a flat surface with their eyes about five feet above the ground.
01:22:22.340 That is bullshit.
01:22:24.540 I thought it was like 70 feet or something.
01:22:26.200 Why are you asking this question?
01:22:30.820 I'm not sure exactly, I guess.
01:22:32.180 What were you talking about?
01:22:32.760 We were just talking about David Spade, Average Read.
01:22:35.100 Oh.
01:22:35.560 Whatever, man.
01:22:36.240 We'll move it along.
01:22:38.320 When Bobby Lee came, what was it like when you saw him first?
01:22:40.620 Because a lot of people are like, what is it?
01:22:43.240 You know?
01:22:44.600 He was just adorable.
01:22:46.600 I mean, he was-
01:22:46.980 You remember him?
01:22:47.880 Yeah, I discovered him.
01:22:50.080 You know I discovered him.
01:22:51.360 I didn't know him.
01:22:51.820 You didn't know that.
01:22:52.580 I didn't.
01:22:53.100 Yeah, yeah.
01:22:53.620 No, I found him.
01:22:55.440 Where'd you see him at?
01:22:56.380 Panda Express.
01:22:59.740 He was getting some onja chicken.
01:23:02.280 No, I saw him naked at a Korean spa.
01:23:04.300 Oh, yeah.
01:23:05.280 No, for real.
01:23:06.100 I saw him at a, he's from San Diego.
01:23:09.880 Yeah.
01:23:10.220 And it was a restaurant.
01:23:11.220 He was from Petaluma.
01:23:12.000 Yeah, a restaurant called Brockton Villa.
01:23:14.600 And he was like a server there.
01:23:16.160 And you just saw him.
01:23:16.600 And I was there with my mom.
01:23:17.440 I think I was there with my mom or my brothers or something.
01:23:20.080 And I said, yo, you're fucking hilarious.
01:23:23.280 Come to the comedy store.
01:23:24.420 So I got him a gig at the comedy store.
01:23:26.320 He was taking tickets.
01:23:27.460 In La Jolla?
01:23:27.920 Yeah, in La Jolla.
01:23:28.740 The comedy store there.
01:23:29.820 And you just thought he was funny from the interactions?
01:23:31.740 Yeah, just because he was adorable.
01:23:33.300 And then he started taking tickets at the La Jolla room.
01:23:38.840 And then he started going up on open mic night.
01:23:41.100 And then I would see him down there.
01:23:42.660 And every time I'd come down there and play, you know, I'd kind of put him up in front of me.
01:23:46.980 And then eventually I took him on the road.
01:23:49.480 And then he became a paid regular at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas when my mom was there to see me.
01:23:57.440 And he opened for me at the Riviera Hotel in the late 90s.
01:24:00.760 And that's when my mom made him a paid regular.
01:24:03.880 She says, you're funny.
01:24:04.740 You can work the store.
01:24:05.820 Right then.
01:24:06.360 Yeah.
01:24:06.860 Wow.
01:24:07.800 Yeah, so I discovered.
01:24:09.040 Dude, that's awesome.
01:24:09.860 You did all that for him.
01:24:10.700 Yeah.
01:24:11.080 And then he opened for me for eight years.
01:24:13.140 Wow.
01:24:13.340 He toured with me for eight years.
01:24:14.760 Opened for me on the bus and the whole thing.
01:24:16.900 Kind of like Ari.
01:24:18.280 Yeah.
01:24:18.700 You know, Amir, they opened for you.
01:24:19.940 He just opened for me.
01:24:20.860 We did merch.
01:24:22.120 I got videos of him fucking chicks.
01:24:24.740 Yeah.
01:24:25.220 Yeah, it's fucking great.
01:24:26.580 I'm going to release him the next time he's got something coming out, you know?
01:24:30.380 Oh, yeah.
01:24:31.300 Yeah.
01:24:31.700 Oh, this was Guest House.
01:24:32.880 Wow.
01:24:33.260 So you guys went through all that together.
01:24:35.720 What was he like then?
01:24:36.980 And what ethnicity was he?
01:24:39.560 Because people were like, what is he?
01:24:40.820 He's not Korean?
01:24:43.540 I don't know.
01:24:45.040 Bring up Korea.
01:24:48.120 You think he's from Thailand or something?
01:24:51.940 I don't know.
01:24:52.460 He looks more like Osaka to me or whatever.
01:24:54.820 Huh.
01:24:55.920 But I don't know.
01:24:56.840 Yeah, so I've written some scripts with him.
01:25:00.400 I got a great script called Captured, where I capture him and put him in a cage in my backyard.
01:25:05.420 Oh, yeah.
01:25:05.960 And we did this.
01:25:07.460 He's done a lot of stuff with me.
01:25:08.620 He's in Guest House.
01:25:09.620 Back there feeding him pine nuts.
01:25:11.340 He's an interesting guy, you know?
01:25:12.980 Yeah.
01:25:13.400 He's one of a kind.
01:25:14.240 Would he sleep all day back then or was he more of a morning person?
01:25:17.020 Because he's devolved into a nighttime.
01:25:19.940 He's awake like five hours a day.
01:25:22.620 You know, it's definitely a very specific style of living.
01:25:26.460 Yeah, he, I don't know.
01:25:28.100 He would hide from me a lot.
01:25:30.880 He'd always hide from me.
01:25:32.120 One time he cried on the road with me.
01:25:34.660 He cried because we were in Detroit.
01:25:40.160 That'll do it.
01:25:42.380 Sorry, dude.
01:25:42.980 No, no.
01:25:43.420 We were in Detroit.
01:25:44.680 And, you know, the road manager gives everyone their hotel keys.
01:25:49.860 You know, so Bobby goes to his key.
01:25:51.440 And I just followed him in his room.
01:25:53.180 And he's like, what are you doing?
01:25:54.300 I'm like, I'm staying with you tonight.
01:25:56.040 You know, I'm going to stay with you in the room.
01:25:57.760 And he wasn't into that.
01:25:59.140 And I'm like, no, dude, because I don't have anyone.
01:26:01.280 I'm lonely.
01:26:01.760 I don't want to go back to my room by myself.
01:26:03.620 Oh, yeah.
01:26:04.180 Yeah.
01:26:04.500 And I, you know, and then he started crying.
01:26:07.060 And then when he cried, I just left.
01:26:09.280 But, you know.
01:26:10.520 Yeah.
01:26:11.180 Oh, yeah.
01:26:11.820 He's definitely.
01:26:12.780 And the crazy thing about him crying, it's like one tear gets in his eye.
01:26:17.960 And it's.
01:26:18.660 Yeah.
01:26:20.580 Yeah.
01:26:20.860 It's full.
01:26:21.320 He's doing great now, too.
01:26:22.820 It's full.
01:26:23.700 But again, I told him, I said, dude, it's going to happen for you.
01:26:26.800 He was always neurotic.
01:26:28.560 Really?
01:26:28.920 Yeah.
01:26:29.260 Well, yeah.
01:26:29.760 He was, you know, before his podcast, he was just trying to figure.
01:26:33.460 He wasn't.
01:26:33.880 He barely was selling out comedy clubs.
01:26:35.760 Wow.
01:26:36.480 You know what I mean?
01:26:37.100 I've always.
01:26:37.680 He's one guy who could never change a word from his set.
01:26:41.080 And I would.
01:26:41.680 Still funny.
01:26:42.340 Every single time.
01:26:43.680 Yeah.
01:26:43.720 Yeah.
01:26:44.220 There's just.
01:26:46.000 Actually, when he walks up, it's already.
01:26:48.100 The setup is already there.
01:26:49.760 Yeah.
01:26:50.180 Yeah.
01:26:50.400 Yeah.
01:26:50.920 And not in a negative way.
01:26:52.100 The setup is already there.
01:26:53.900 Yeah.
01:26:54.100 No, I love Bobby.
01:26:54.980 Bobby is very, very close with him.
01:26:57.720 I do see him at the Korean spa sometimes.
01:26:59.940 Yeah.
01:27:00.020 He gets really fucking freaked out when I go again.
01:27:02.180 Really?
01:27:02.660 Yeah.
01:27:03.120 He showed his butthole to some kids somewhere.
01:27:04.940 I don't know where that was at.
01:27:05.980 I'm trying to remember.
01:27:07.500 I don't know if there's a video of that.
01:27:08.620 It was definitely a drawing of it.
01:27:11.020 Yeah.
01:27:11.380 But he's a good dude, you know?
01:27:14.260 Oh, yeah.
01:27:14.840 He's doing good.
01:27:15.020 Yeah.
01:27:15.180 He's doing good.
01:27:16.160 So.
01:27:16.360 Yeah.
01:27:16.560 He's.
01:27:17.100 You know who else is doing good?
01:27:18.240 Jesus Trejo.
01:27:19.660 Yeah.
01:27:19.880 He's doing good too.
01:27:21.060 He's always been so funny.
01:27:22.380 Yeah.
01:27:22.680 So he opened for me for eight years too.
01:27:25.000 Dang.
01:27:25.520 Eight years.
01:27:26.200 Yeah.
01:27:26.520 A lot of these guys.
01:27:27.720 Eight years.
01:27:28.280 Ari Shafir opened for me.
01:27:30.080 Rick Ingram opened for me.
01:27:32.180 All these guys.
01:27:33.540 Yeah.
01:27:33.760 It's cool.
01:27:34.180 I love bringing those guys out.
01:27:35.680 Yeah.
01:27:35.820 That's one cool thing about the store is just like, it's just, I don't know.
01:27:42.240 Once you get in there and you make your way through and you've been there for a while
01:27:45.480 and you know who's who and you kind of, you develop your own little relationship with
01:27:49.760 the space and the people you love to see and people come and go and the people that
01:27:53.620 work there.
01:27:54.320 And it's like, it is just such a universe.
01:27:56.920 You know, we're lucky to be able to have a workplace that has a lot of joy and like
01:28:02.140 different people at it.
01:28:03.660 And you, it's fun.
01:28:04.460 Like imagine you get to go to work and it's actually, you can say what you want.
01:28:07.700 You're encouraged.
01:28:08.300 There's no real HR.
01:28:09.480 Or in fact, HR is like, HR is encouraging you to fucking say crazy or shit.
01:28:14.440 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:28:14.940 I never thought about that, man.
01:28:16.780 That's such a crazy blessing, dude.
01:28:18.980 Do you think your mother felt very achieved with her with the comedy club?
01:28:23.100 Um, yeah, I mean, she's, you know, and that's, you know, the way, the way that it's still,
01:28:30.760 the way that it's left right now is exactly how she left it, which is awesome.
01:28:35.860 You know, she just put her stamp on it.
01:28:37.600 She's leave it alone.
01:28:38.440 Don't fuck with it.
01:28:39.740 And, you know, and just like, you know, the rooms are set up the way there are and different
01:28:43.980 than the laugh factor, different, the improv, different vibes.
01:28:46.100 Those are great clubs, um, but, you know, she, she kind of created the black and the
01:28:51.820 red and all that stuff and, you know, and created that space.
01:28:54.620 So, you know, it's pretty tight.
01:28:55.960 Yeah, it's, yeah, you wouldn't want it to change.
01:28:58.280 Was there ever a chance that it was going to be sold at some point?
01:29:01.840 Um, I don't know.
01:29:03.100 I don't think we would ever sell it.
01:29:04.580 You know what I mean?
01:29:05.120 I think just kind of leave it.
01:29:06.640 It's, you know, it's, it's gotta be a, uh, uh, what's it called?
01:29:10.260 A Hollywood or a landmark or what's it called?
01:29:12.680 Grandfather.
01:29:13.460 What's it called?
01:29:14.180 Oh yeah.
01:29:14.440 It's like a, um,
01:29:15.380 Historical landmark.
01:29:16.200 Yeah, historical landmark.
01:29:17.340 Yeah, at some point, huh?
01:29:18.600 Yeah, I think so.
01:29:19.860 So, um.
01:29:20.820 Yeah, that's a good point.
01:29:21.640 I remember somebody, I don't know if I saw a drawing somewhere that a hotel had drawn around
01:29:26.000 it that were going to build and leave it intact as is on the ground.
01:29:31.380 That's kind of cool.
01:29:31.980 And build up and just, you know, it was like a 20 story hotel and it would be right under
01:29:37.180 exactly the same.
01:29:38.280 Huh.
01:29:38.860 I remember seeing a, somebody had put that together.
01:29:41.300 I don't know if it was an art.
01:29:42.160 Yeah, I think it was an architect drawing.
01:29:43.440 I don't know if it was actually considered at one point, but I thought,
01:29:45.380 I remember seeing that somewhere.
01:29:48.140 Um, what, uh, when you, um, when you look at your life and like maybe having a family,
01:29:55.540 do you have any children?
01:29:56.420 My dog.
01:29:57.500 That's like Scott, your brother has the same, huh?
01:29:59.380 Is he children?
01:29:59.940 Scott's got a dog.
01:30:00.860 You know, he's got a dog.
01:30:02.300 Um, yeah, I got a dog.
01:30:03.620 Um, I don't know.
01:30:05.320 I mean, that's a whole other podcast.
01:30:08.480 Okay.
01:30:08.820 That's like a fucking, you know what I mean?
01:30:10.940 No, we'll do it.
01:30:11.500 Yeah, we'll talk about it on the top.
01:30:12.400 You're a good point.
01:30:12.940 That's a good point.
01:30:13.840 That's a good point.
01:30:14.560 You know what I mean?
01:30:15.240 That's a whole, there you go.
01:30:17.140 That's my dog Buster.
01:30:18.800 Oh, that's cute.
01:30:20.120 Yeah.
01:30:21.380 When you look at guys like Brody Stevens, right?
01:30:24.080 Who have had, who, what a shock was that?
01:30:26.100 Is that, do you feel like things like that happen with suicide amongst comedians and stuff?
01:30:30.340 It happens.
01:30:30.900 I mean, Jack Knight, remember Jack Knight?
01:30:35.200 Who is that?
01:30:36.420 Bring up Jack Knight.
01:30:38.040 Who is he?
01:30:39.060 So funny.
01:30:40.700 Great energy.
01:30:42.640 You remember Jack Knight?
01:30:45.880 Huh?
01:30:46.480 Remember seeing him?
01:30:47.280 Yeah, I think.
01:30:49.940 I think two years ago he took his life.
01:30:51.420 Huh.
01:30:52.600 I mean, one of the funniest young men.
01:30:56.400 Heartbreaking.
01:30:59.320 Yeah, sometimes it's hard to get your mind to just fucking relax.
01:31:03.900 You know what I mean?
01:31:05.000 And I think it's important, it sounds kind of corny, but I think it's really important
01:31:08.980 that everyone focuses on what they have as opposed to what they don't have.
01:31:12.780 And I think that is like the key.
01:31:15.040 You know, like you got to focus on your blessings, you know, as opposed to, you know.
01:31:22.500 Yeah, because the other way is a trap because there's no end to, you can like, focusing on
01:31:29.040 what you don't have and trying to, I mean, I fall into it all the time, you know, but
01:31:32.800 it's just a, it's such a trap or wanting more and then not even enjoying.
01:31:37.540 The saddest thing I think is sometimes when I look back on certain moments in my life and
01:31:40.820 I'm like, man, I wish I had enjoyed that a little more.
01:31:43.100 Just by being present or just by sitting there quietly or by.
01:31:47.740 Letting it in.
01:31:48.520 Yeah.
01:31:49.280 Yeah.
01:31:49.620 Letting it in.
01:31:50.820 Yeah.
01:31:51.300 And so what are you doing with all your money?
01:31:54.180 I've been saving some money.
01:31:56.080 Some?
01:31:57.340 I mean, fuck, everyone sees the arenas.
01:31:59.360 Like you fucking.
01:32:00.060 They're not arenas, dude.
01:32:01.660 Segura, fucking Bird.
01:32:02.860 Oh, those guys have been making some money, dude.
01:32:04.960 I mean, what do you, I mean, Jesus Christ, dude, I wouldn't know what to do with that.
01:32:09.440 I mean, it's crazy.
01:32:10.960 Oh, dude.
01:32:11.120 You got to put it away, bro.
01:32:12.680 Oh, I see.
01:32:13.040 You can, I mean, you don't spend on yourself just like me.
01:32:15.800 Yeah.
01:32:16.300 Right?
01:32:16.740 You got a Jeep or.
01:32:18.280 Yeah, I got a Jeep Cherokee.
01:32:19.560 Like, I don't like.
01:32:20.980 I've never been that guy either.
01:32:22.660 I felt embarrassed inviting people over.
01:32:25.160 Even having a nice watcher.
01:32:26.800 To my apartment when I was a kid because I was ashamed of it.
01:32:30.940 And I feel embarrassed sometimes.
01:32:33.400 I have a house in Nashville.
01:32:34.640 It's not a, it's a nice home.
01:32:36.100 I'm not.
01:32:36.860 And it's, it's not like an estate or anything, but I feel ashamed even sometimes showing that.
01:32:43.900 It's like, I just, I don't know.
01:32:47.020 Yeah.
01:32:47.220 I'm trying to rent out my house now too.
01:32:49.040 Oh yeah.
01:32:49.380 It's a beautiful home.
01:32:50.160 Yeah.
01:32:50.300 I'm trying to rent out the house too.
01:32:51.620 With all that.
01:32:51.920 What's that like?
01:32:53.040 Yeah.
01:32:53.640 Terracotta tile.
01:32:54.480 God.
01:32:54.760 No, just because it's like you said, like I'm just one guy with my dog, you know, and then
01:32:58.840 I have a condo in Vegas, you know, I, I kind of.
01:33:01.780 Yeah.
01:33:01.880 You live there a lot.
01:33:02.480 Yeah.
01:33:02.620 I stock, I stock you at the resorts world.
01:33:05.140 So my, uh, I see your poster there all the time.
01:33:07.740 So I, I, I, you know, it's right there.
01:33:10.020 So I have like a one bedroom condo and I got all my shit there and it feels more comfortable
01:33:14.700 than my house in LA because, you know, I'm just one guy, you know, the older you get
01:33:19.220 the realize the less you need.
01:33:20.780 I don't want to be that guy that's that by himself with his dog in this big house.
01:33:25.180 Oh, you know what I mean?
01:33:26.280 So I just don't like, I don't like living in a big house, you know, it's not who I am.
01:33:31.840 Yeah.
01:33:32.600 I think some things that are kind of, this is kind of fucking emo and sad and is definitely
01:33:36.440 going to be accused of light homosexuality.
01:33:40.120 But, um, yeah, like sometimes I'll lay in bed at night and like just the, the, the space
01:33:45.000 in my bed, it feels fucking lonesome, you know?
01:33:48.100 But then sometimes if a girl wanted to stay over, I'd be like, I don't know if I like
01:33:51.980 having somebody stay over.
01:33:53.160 Right.
01:33:53.960 So it's like, I just, yeah.
01:33:55.900 Everything with me.
01:33:56.480 Well, I'll sleep in the other room.
01:33:58.240 All right.
01:33:58.920 Yeah.
01:33:59.120 Yeah.
01:33:59.400 No, if a girl stays at night, I'm like, I'm going to go peace out in the other room.
01:34:03.180 Okay.
01:34:03.720 Okay.
01:34:04.200 And then, but, but when you sleep alone at night, what do you do?
01:34:06.740 What do you, how do you sleep?
01:34:08.380 Okay.
01:34:08.720 Here's what I do.
01:34:09.500 So first I wash my face, brush my teeth, put in my retainers, put on a breathe right strip on
01:34:15.220 my nose.
01:34:15.800 Right.
01:34:16.080 Okay.
01:34:16.300 I want all the, is that from all the Coke?
01:34:19.380 I don't know what it's from.
01:34:20.260 It could be just from having a big nose.
01:34:21.940 It could be from cocaine.
01:34:22.960 It could be a mix of things.
01:34:24.480 It could be from Satan.
01:34:26.520 Who knows what happened?
01:34:27.620 So you put the stuff on here.
01:34:28.800 Put the thing on and then, uh, I'll lay down, put a pillow between my legs, get another pillow
01:34:34.420 that I hold on to, set the air conditioner at 69.
01:34:38.560 Cause I don't want to be too crazy.
01:34:40.180 And then.
01:34:41.160 And then you start 69 in your pillow.
01:34:43.000 And I'll pee.
01:34:43.800 I will pee right before I go to sleep and hope I don't have to pee all night.
01:34:46.980 That's my goal is to not have to pee all night.
01:34:49.080 And then what about sleep medication?
01:34:50.580 Be honest.
01:34:51.340 Yep.
01:34:51.920 I'll take, uh, a couple of melatonin chewies.
01:34:55.140 Yeah.
01:34:55.400 And then I'll take, um, there's a pill from my doctor.
01:35:00.560 It's a, um.
01:35:01.460 A Xanax?
01:35:02.240 No, no.
01:35:03.040 Ambien?
01:35:03.860 No, it's so light.
01:35:05.000 It's like fucking, it's just basically like, uh, it's like a little queer nugget.
01:35:11.740 I mean, this thing wouldn't, it would barely do nothing to you.
01:35:14.100 And then why is it that you think you need to take the melatonin, melatonin and this pill
01:35:18.720 from the doctor?
01:35:19.320 Wait, stop.
01:35:20.060 Wait three seconds to answer.
01:35:21.880 Think about it.
01:35:22.960 Um.
01:35:23.580 Why do you have to take that in order to, to sleep?
01:35:26.640 Is it a psychological thing?
01:35:28.120 Do you really feel like it really mellows you out?
01:35:30.320 Or do you think that it mellows you out?
01:35:31.920 I think it mellows me out.
01:35:32.820 Really?
01:35:33.240 And I got to shut it down.
01:35:35.660 Especially after a show, right?
01:35:37.440 Oh, yeah.
01:35:38.320 Fuck.
01:35:38.840 And right now I am, I think I'm 64 days off of masturbation and 60 days off of porn,
01:35:45.560 64 days off pornography and 57 days off of masturbation.
01:35:48.900 So then you were doing it a lot?
01:35:50.720 Not a lot, but I had done it for countless years, yeah.
01:35:53.680 Yeah, but back when you were young, even in your 40s, you're jerking off all the time?
01:35:58.640 Really?
01:35:59.300 Yeah.
01:35:59.640 Don't you like to save your cum?
01:36:01.180 I mean, yeah, I like to store up for winter or whatever, I guess.
01:36:04.040 I don't know, but it's like-
01:36:04.860 Yeah, because if you're going to cum with a chick, you want a lot to cum out.
01:36:07.320 I don't know, I don't want her to get crazy, you know?
01:36:09.220 I don't want her to be like, God, we got to, you know, ruining the curtains or whatever.
01:36:13.000 When you have sex with a girl, do you put a condom on or does she put it on if she tells
01:36:16.520 you to put it on?
01:36:17.480 Look, if people want to use a condom, we let them use them, you know?
01:36:20.900 Who's we?
01:36:21.580 I don't know who we are, your honor.
01:36:23.920 I don't know who we are, okay?
01:36:25.980 Talk to my attorney right now.
01:36:27.360 And then sometimes you put it in and then they're like, yo, you're having sex with girls without
01:36:31.600 condoms?
01:36:32.120 You're like, oh, what are you talking about?
01:36:35.040 That's fucking right.
01:36:35.800 I don't know what you're talking about.
01:36:36.740 I don't know what you're talking about either, bro.
01:36:38.860 That's crazy, dude.
01:36:40.560 That's why this is going a different way.
01:36:42.780 Okay.
01:36:43.640 How long were your parents separated?
01:36:45.320 Do you remember?
01:36:45.800 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:36:46.560 We're not going to my fucking parents all of a sudden.
01:36:48.360 Okay, sorry, sorry.
01:36:48.620 We're talking about you fucking your pillow.
01:36:50.940 Dude, do you remember the first time you ever had sex or not?
01:36:52.740 Wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:36:53.340 Let's go back to your sleep situation.
01:36:55.040 Okay.
01:36:55.440 We're going back to three seconds.
01:36:56.700 I'm laying there, got all my stuff.
01:36:57.720 Oh, and then I'll put stuff in my hair to try and keep my hair healthy.
01:37:00.980 So just like type of?
01:37:02.380 Copper foam.
01:37:03.000 There's like a foam you can get online.
01:37:04.560 What about Propecia?
01:37:06.140 I take Finasteride pills.
01:37:07.440 I take Propecia.
01:37:08.920 Oh, yeah, you're taking the store-bought one.
01:37:10.400 I take the freelance one or whatever.
01:37:13.080 What's the freelance one?
01:37:14.140 It's the one that you can get out the guy's van or whatever down there.
01:37:17.080 Oh, wow.
01:37:19.740 Finasteride.
01:37:20.460 Oh, I should get some of it.
01:37:21.540 Is it a pill?
01:37:22.700 It's the same thing you're taking.
01:37:24.120 It's just the generic version.
01:37:26.660 Well, you're rich.
01:37:27.340 Why didn't you get the real Propecia?
01:37:29.060 Yeah, but I'm fucking used to just the off-market pills.
01:37:32.740 What about the generic Cialis?
01:37:34.560 Oh, dude, I took the stuff from India for a while.
01:37:36.840 Wouldn't make my legs sweat.
01:37:38.660 So generic Cialis or?
01:37:41.020 It was just like an Indian.
01:37:42.540 Do you take the Cialis or the Viagra?
01:37:44.560 It was just that fucking ramp maker from India, baby.
01:37:46.880 That thing will fucking, good Lord, son.
01:37:49.620 Really?
01:37:50.200 Oh, you could fucking knit a scarf with that thing.
01:37:54.300 What's it called?
01:37:55.280 That thing will whistle for a cab, baby.
01:37:57.080 That thing, it was a website.
01:37:59.360 It went under.
01:37:59.900 It was off this gambling site or whatever, but I used to get them.
01:38:04.320 It would take forever to get the pills.
01:38:05.860 They'd come in this package, and they had like...
01:38:08.080 Do you ever get massages?
01:38:09.540 Yeah.
01:38:10.640 Who's your masseuse?
01:38:11.780 You don't have to tell me the guy's name or the girl's name.
01:38:14.180 It's a man.
01:38:14.980 So, yeah, he comes over to the house with the table?
01:38:16.940 No, no, no.
01:38:17.300 I go to his place.
01:38:18.300 It's off Westwood Boulevard.
01:38:19.500 Why don't you have him come to your house with the table?
01:38:21.340 I got a guy, dude.
01:38:22.240 He's strong as fuck.
01:38:23.240 No, I got a guy.
01:38:24.680 He's great.
01:38:25.260 Dude, I don't need some guy to come over and touch me, dude.
01:38:27.520 You know what I'm saying?
01:38:28.380 Wait, touching your house is different than touching at a fucking...
01:38:31.120 His facility?
01:38:32.280 Who gives a fuck?
01:38:32.840 You think I'm fucking Protestant or something, dude?
01:38:35.700 I'm good, bro.
01:38:37.240 Chinese.
01:38:37.440 Yeah, I'd rather at least...
01:38:38.360 Then I can leave.
01:38:39.240 Otherwise, I have to tell the guy to...
01:38:40.420 Yeah, I don't want some guy touching me at my fucking house, dude.
01:38:43.140 Really?
01:38:43.920 No.
01:38:44.840 Huh.
01:38:45.640 No, dude.
01:38:46.160 Even if he's a professional masseuse and he just came from David Geffen's house?
01:38:49.380 Dude, a professional masseuse is just some guy that printed something off the internet, dude.
01:38:57.100 No, I got a guy who's really strong.
01:38:58.840 Really strong.
01:38:59.540 Okay, but how about this?
01:39:01.000 And he comes to my house and he has a table and he's coming at night because I'm flying
01:39:04.660 to Raleigh tomorrow, so I want to get a little deep tissue before.
01:39:08.720 But you tell me this.
01:39:10.260 Say you go look online.
01:39:11.780 We have nobody...
01:39:12.800 I don't look online.
01:39:14.480 Okay.
01:39:15.200 I don't look online for masseuses.
01:39:16.900 There's no way.
01:39:17.920 No, I just get it from a referral.
01:39:19.760 You ask a homie that's like, hey, do you have any good masseuses?
01:39:21.860 Oh, yeah.
01:39:22.380 This girl, she's really strong, da-da-da-da.
01:39:24.420 Yeah.
01:39:24.720 And you ask someone, you just get it that way.
01:39:26.520 You're right.
01:39:28.000 I got a strong guy coming to the house.
01:39:31.100 Okay, okay.
01:39:32.020 You win, dude.
01:39:32.800 Look, I like going to see this guy.
01:39:35.440 I will say this.
01:39:36.120 My guy...
01:39:36.320 Where's your house?
01:39:37.120 Where do you live?
01:39:37.720 I live in Nashville, but in...
01:39:38.900 No, out here.
01:39:39.900 Westwood.
01:39:40.620 So you have a place out in Westwood?
01:39:41.900 I have an apartment in Westwood, yeah.
01:39:43.100 Huh.
01:39:43.540 Okay, I'll send him to your house for me.
01:39:44.880 I'll buy a masseuse for you.
01:39:47.360 Okay.
01:39:47.560 I'll buy the masseuse for you.
01:39:49.380 And go do it, and then tell me if you fucking like it.
01:39:51.800 Okay.
01:39:52.120 And he's strong as fuck.
01:39:53.280 Is he?
01:39:53.840 Very strong.
01:39:54.560 I want very strong.
01:39:55.440 I want somebody who just...
01:39:56.320 Yeah, no, he'll get in there.
01:39:57.700 He's fucking good, dude.
01:39:58.620 Okay.
01:39:59.380 Yeah.
01:39:59.780 I'll do that.
01:40:00.380 Yeah, for you.
01:40:01.100 My present for you.
01:40:02.600 Really?
01:40:03.100 Yes, because at the end of the day, you're up there on stage, you're traveling, you're
01:40:06.760 making people laugh, you got to take care of your shoulders.
01:40:09.240 What about the spa?
01:40:10.140 You go to the Russian bathhouse, or...
01:40:11.700 Mm-mm.
01:40:12.340 But I do start getting steam room.
01:40:13.820 Now, I do do that.
01:40:14.680 Yeah.
01:40:15.300 So, the Korean spa.
01:40:16.920 I do start getting steam room now, and it's good.
01:40:18.900 I went yesterday.
01:40:19.460 Yeah, you have to.
01:40:20.200 I didn't realize I needed to take care of myself.
01:40:22.380 Dude, I do all the time.
01:40:24.240 I go five days a week.
01:40:25.560 Fuck, I didn't know that.
01:40:26.800 So...
01:40:27.120 Dude, I fucking...
01:40:28.380 It killed me, dude.
01:40:29.620 My hair got thin.
01:40:30.380 All kind of stuff, because I wasn't taking care of myself.
01:40:32.360 I just didn't know.
01:40:33.420 Yes.
01:40:33.900 And in Vegas, there's a place called Imperial Spa.
01:40:36.780 Oh, I've heard of that.
01:40:37.600 Yeah.
01:40:38.620 And it's good.
01:40:39.700 It's Korean spa.
01:40:41.100 But also, there's all those spas in the cold plunge and all that shit.
01:40:44.040 Yeah.
01:40:44.280 You got to do that.
01:40:45.200 I got a cold plunge at home.
01:40:46.320 My friend makes a good cold plunge, and he gave me one as a gift.
01:40:50.300 And he was my first sponsor ever on my podcast.
01:40:52.580 He used to own a pizza place here.
01:40:53.920 Oh, wow.
01:40:54.400 My friend Thomas used to run a place called Gray Block Pizza, and then he moved to Bend,
01:40:58.880 Oregon, and started making a...
01:41:00.660 Cold plunges?
01:41:01.240 Cold plunges, yeah, out there with his buddies.
01:41:03.060 Beautiful.
01:41:04.080 Yeah, because it's all about sweating.
01:41:05.560 What about the workout?
01:41:06.560 What do you do with that?
01:41:08.020 I'm going to get a trainer.
01:41:09.580 Yeah.
01:41:09.780 I get two days a week, and then I'll go myself probably one or two days a week.
01:41:13.900 I'll do a little bit of yoga, too.
01:41:15.540 Stretch lab?
01:41:16.220 Do you go to get stretched?
01:41:17.360 No, I do my own yoga.
01:41:18.660 That's good.
01:41:20.060 Chiropractor?
01:41:20.900 No, but I need to go this morning.
01:41:22.060 I was looking at myself.
01:41:22.840 I was like, Jesus.
01:41:23.180 I got a good chiropractor out here, too.
01:41:24.960 Really?
01:41:25.520 Really good.
01:41:26.260 Yeah, I was looking at my body in the mirror.
01:41:27.440 I was like, Jesus, what is that?
01:41:28.300 You're crooked?
01:41:29.540 It just seemed like it was like fucking...
01:41:32.220 Like it was like...
01:41:33.580 Yeah.
01:41:34.680 You got to do that shit.
01:41:35.880 My whole body look, I just wasn't sure.
01:41:37.720 And dude, you know what?
01:41:38.260 I'm like 10 years older than you.
01:41:39.880 Yeah.
01:41:40.260 So it's like, you know, this is the age where you got to start stretching.
01:41:44.500 Yeah, that's the most important thing, and sweating.
01:41:46.880 Yeah.
01:41:47.540 Yeah, do it all.
01:41:48.380 Yeah, I'm starting to learn a little bit more of that.
01:41:51.920 Now you can only get kind of so famous, right?
01:41:54.260 Like fame is different now.
01:41:55.480 It feels like everybody's pretty popular, kind of.
01:41:57.620 Everybody is, yeah.
01:41:58.700 Because there's so much stuff to see quickly.
01:42:01.560 It used to be you had to go see a movie, and then those people would be famous.
01:42:05.400 But now, in the time it would take you to watch a movie, you can look at 200 different people,
01:42:11.100 and all of them have a level of achievement to you.
01:42:13.180 Do you feel like you got fame at the best time?
01:42:19.000 Yeah.
01:42:19.460 I mean, I think it was the last great decade of it.
01:42:22.620 I mean, if you look at the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, that was all kind of similar.
01:42:26.980 And then once reality shows hit, you know, the real world, I think that was like the first reality show,
01:42:32.700 which was in the mid-90s.
01:42:34.300 Yeah.
01:42:34.500 I think that's when things got fucked up.
01:42:37.460 Yeah.
01:42:37.780 But yeah, no, it was, you know, it was pretty-
01:42:40.620 Yeah, dude, that's so crazy.
01:42:42.480 You know?
01:42:43.020 Like, did you ever get to party with, like, Michael Jackson?
01:42:48.400 No, I met him once.
01:42:49.660 You did?
01:42:50.040 Yeah, I met him once.
01:42:51.060 But it wasn't like, we hung out.
01:42:53.020 It was just like a high type thing.
01:42:54.900 But I mean, back in the MTV days, I met a lot of, you know, pretty cool.
01:42:57.980 But do you remember the sound of his voice or anything, or no?
01:43:00.280 Hi.
01:43:00.600 Hi.
01:43:01.720 Hi.
01:43:02.220 What's going on?
01:43:02.860 Hi, Pauly.
01:43:03.500 I like your music video show.
01:43:05.140 It's very cute.
01:43:06.120 Really?
01:43:06.700 Yeah.
01:43:07.320 He was fucking amazing.
01:43:09.100 Yeah.
01:43:09.520 I mean, God.
01:43:11.360 Yeah, he was like-
01:43:12.180 I'm glad you're meeting him.
01:43:12.640 You know, you look at guys like Bruno Mars, super talented.
01:43:15.260 Right.
01:43:15.740 But not Michael Jackson.
01:43:17.480 Yeah.
01:43:17.800 Or Prince.
01:43:19.440 You know, these guys were like, you know, another level, yeah.
01:43:22.200 And they had a level of mystery, and it was like, yeah.
01:43:26.640 But-
01:43:27.340 Yeah, there was just so much, I don't know.
01:43:29.360 But also MTV was the biggest thing in the world.
01:43:32.980 Biggest thing in the world.
01:43:33.140 Yeah, it was the biggest thing in the world.
01:43:34.680 And that's kind of like-
01:43:35.260 It was the only thing between-
01:43:36.580 That kids watched, yeah.
01:43:37.640 Yeah.
01:43:38.580 Oh, you're watching MTV?
01:43:40.120 Come over, let's watch MTV.
01:43:41.540 Yeah, let's watch MTV.
01:43:42.580 Crazy.
01:43:43.140 Remember TRL?
01:43:44.280 Oh, yeah.
01:43:44.880 Total Request Live.
01:43:45.760 Yeah.
01:43:46.100 And who was the host on it?
01:43:47.960 Carson Daly, yeah.
01:43:48.920 Carson Daly, dude.
01:43:50.260 And he would toss to like Britney Spears, or Korn, Limp Bizkit, you know.
01:43:56.240 Wyclef.
01:43:57.320 Yeah, this was like one of the last great heiress here.
01:44:00.880 Britney Spears.
01:44:01.960 You ever get to party with her?
01:44:02.860 Not really.
01:44:07.640 No, not really.
01:44:10.440 She's in her own thing.
01:44:11.680 She did steal my table recently in Las Vegas.
01:44:15.120 Oh, she showed up at a club?
01:44:17.260 She's-
01:44:17.860 Oh, no.
01:44:18.280 I was having dinner at Catch in Vegas over at the Aria, and I went to the bathroom, and
01:44:24.080 then she fucking, I guess, she hit some security guy, and then she went in, and then I come
01:44:28.780 back to my fucking table, and she's sitting in my table.
01:44:32.080 By herself?
01:44:32.740 No, she's with her boyfriend or husband, or, you know, look at this right here.
01:44:37.260 She keeps getting different husbands or whatever.
01:44:39.480 Yeah.
01:44:41.160 Yeah, so, look, she touches this guy, and the security hits her in the face.
01:44:46.140 Wow.
01:44:47.020 Yeah.
01:44:50.460 Maybe one more time.
01:44:51.340 And then she runs into the catch, and I didn't care, you know what I mean?
01:44:58.320 It's not like, get out of my table.
01:45:00.120 But she ran into catch because she was probably embarrassed.
01:45:01.580 Yeah, and she went in there, and I was like, all right, just give me my fanny pack.
01:45:05.040 You can have the table.
01:45:05.740 I don't care.
01:45:07.240 And did she say anything or no?
01:45:08.440 She said, sorry.
01:45:09.420 It's all good.
01:45:10.460 It wasn't a big deal.
01:45:11.800 Was she-
01:45:12.600 How did she seem?
01:45:13.420 Okay.
01:45:14.600 She seemed buzzed.
01:45:15.860 Yeah.
01:45:16.800 You know?
01:45:17.280 But she's from where you're from.
01:45:18.740 Oh, dude, you can get buzzed down there.
01:45:21.220 Right?
01:45:21.800 Oh, just looking at your cousin, yeah.
01:45:23.760 Get you hard.
01:45:24.920 Or not hard, buzzed, I meant.
01:45:26.300 Yeah.
01:45:26.820 No, I know.
01:45:27.520 Down in Louisiana.
01:45:28.360 There's no comedy clubs in Louisiana.
01:45:30.160 Isn't that crazy?
01:45:31.060 Yeah.
01:45:31.180 Do you remember?
01:45:31.480 There used to be the Baton Rouge Funny Bone.
01:45:32.680 Did you ever go to it?
01:45:33.240 Yes.
01:45:34.200 Bro, that place had a strip club across the street.
01:45:36.640 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:45:38.100 Yeah, we used to do comedy down there back in the day.
01:45:41.180 I played a lot of clubs back there, back in the 90s.
01:45:43.580 New Orleans didn't even have a club.
01:45:45.040 The what?
01:45:45.700 New Orleans doesn't have a comedy club.
01:45:47.280 This is where it was.
01:45:48.220 Oh, across the street.
01:45:49.160 Oh, wow.
01:45:49.960 Right there.
01:45:50.960 That was it.
01:45:52.300 The Funny Bone, baby.
01:45:53.600 Wow.
01:45:53.780 Baton Rouge Funny Bone.
01:45:55.760 And rest in peace.
01:45:59.840 Is that the strip club, the penthouse?
01:46:01.680 That's hilarious.
01:46:02.280 Yeah, that was it.
01:46:03.200 Oh, my God.
01:46:05.160 Jesus.
01:46:05.820 Down in Bennington Ave, baby.
01:46:06.960 That's where I got my start, right over there.
01:46:08.940 Yeah.
01:46:10.220 And then, yeah, dude, what happened to me?
01:46:13.960 I went to the store.
01:46:14.700 I was on the porch one time, right, getting a beer.
01:46:16.800 I was just coming out here.
01:46:18.640 And Tommy comes out, and he's like,
01:46:21.100 Well, well, haven't seen you in a while.
01:46:25.780 Right.
01:46:27.080 And, bro, I'd never been there.
01:46:28.620 I think he had me confused with somebody.
01:46:30.260 Oh, that's fucking hilarious.
01:46:31.740 He's like, Why don't you come in tomorrow?
01:46:33.340 I'll give you a spot.
01:46:34.560 Right.
01:46:35.500 Like, all right, fuck.
01:46:37.180 What year was this?
01:46:38.820 Shit, I don't even know.
01:46:40.680 2017, maybe?
01:46:42.260 Mm.
01:46:42.840 No, no, that's insane.
01:46:43.920 No, no, wait.
01:46:45.260 Yeah, yeah.
01:46:46.140 Yeah, sorry, dude.
01:46:47.260 What the fuck?
01:46:48.480 17.
01:46:49.080 My calendar's broken.
01:46:51.500 Pauly Shore.
01:46:52.840 Yeah, man.
01:46:53.480 I'm glad we got to sit down finally.
01:46:55.580 Me too.
01:46:55.960 I would love to talk again, but we'll talk about the relationship stuff one day.
01:46:59.760 Yeah, because I think we're similar.
01:47:01.460 Yeah.
01:47:01.560 There's like a lot.
01:47:02.300 It's tough.
01:47:03.340 You know what I mean?
01:47:04.400 Yeah.
01:47:05.220 You know?
01:47:05.680 And there's also something nice about being alone, you know, and having that space.
01:47:09.480 And it grows over time, too.
01:47:12.880 Yeah.
01:47:13.760 You know?
01:47:14.840 And you always get people asking the same thing, which is what you asked me, do you want
01:47:20.020 kids?
01:47:20.980 And there's like a long pause.
01:47:22.800 And like, with the right situation, I think I would.
01:47:25.680 Yeah.
01:47:25.820 And I'd be a good dad.
01:47:26.660 I know I'd be a good dad.
01:47:27.720 And everyone says that to me.
01:47:29.400 Yeah.
01:47:29.600 You know?
01:47:30.260 Because I love my, not to compare my dog to a kid, but I treat my dog great.
01:47:34.780 And I love being with him.
01:47:35.680 And I feel like it's my kid.
01:47:37.020 Yeah.
01:47:37.380 You know?
01:47:37.860 So, yeah.
01:47:39.740 And then also another thing is like my parents are deceased and I don't have that.
01:47:43.840 Right.
01:47:44.040 So it's like, you know.
01:47:44.660 Right.
01:47:44.820 So you start a new life, you know, because I'm an orphan, you know?
01:47:48.680 You know?
01:47:49.220 Yeah.
01:47:49.500 And I want to, you know, start a new life and look at my next 20, 30 years.
01:47:53.520 And I think it'd be cool to have a kid, you know?
01:47:56.220 Yeah.
01:47:56.420 But again, like, it's got to be the, you know.
01:47:58.500 And make them laugh, dude.
01:47:59.780 That would be cool.
01:48:00.520 Yeah.
01:48:00.940 Make your kid laugh all the time.
01:48:02.680 Or what if they don't even laugh at your jokes?
01:48:04.040 You're like, damn, my kid is.
01:48:04.820 Hilarious.
01:48:05.620 That'd be even funnier.
01:48:07.440 That would be fucking funnier.
01:48:09.880 Gosh.
01:48:10.260 But, um.
01:48:10.780 Yeah, it would be really nice, man.
01:48:12.180 It would be really, really nice.
01:48:13.380 It's tough, though, because I think as a comedian, part of you is still a kid in some ways.
01:48:17.720 Mm-hmm.
01:48:18.220 You know, I think it's a part of that that we don't let go of.
01:48:20.940 And it's, so for some of us, or for me, for sure.
01:48:23.900 Is your parents still with us?
01:48:25.260 It's tough to evolve.
01:48:26.060 Yeah, my mother's still alive.
01:48:27.800 And your dad?
01:48:29.260 And my dad is dead, but he'd be alive if he could.
01:48:32.520 And then you have brothers and sisters?
01:48:34.660 Yeah.
01:48:35.120 I got three brothers and sisters.
01:48:36.220 They've all had children.
01:48:37.220 Wow.
01:48:37.440 Or two of them have had kids.
01:48:38.340 Okay, so how's that?
01:48:38.820 So there's been kids.
01:48:39.560 It's fun.
01:48:40.040 Being an uncle's great.
01:48:41.080 So then, yeah, I saw you on your Instagram when you weren't home with them.
01:48:43.860 Yeah.
01:48:44.340 We had a blast.
01:48:45.160 Do you have nieces and nephews?
01:48:46.320 Yes, I do.
01:48:47.020 Oh, good.
01:48:47.500 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:48:47.940 Peter has some children?
01:48:48.800 Yep.
01:48:49.200 Oh, that's cool.
01:48:50.080 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:48:51.700 So, yeah.
01:48:52.760 We'll see.
01:48:53.320 It's cool.
01:48:53.880 We'll see.
01:48:55.820 But anyways.
01:48:56.600 It's possible.
01:48:57.540 Thanks for having me.
01:48:58.440 Thanks for having me.
01:48:58.460 Thank you so much, dude.
01:48:59.480 I really appreciate it.
01:49:00.720 Can I plug my stuff real quick?
01:49:02.220 Yeah, let's do it.
01:49:02.840 We'll plug it at the beginning for you, too.
01:49:04.200 What is it?
01:49:04.460 It's my podcast.
01:49:05.800 It's called The PMS Podcast Show.
01:49:07.620 Love to have you on it.
01:49:08.760 It's over at Jam in the Van.
01:49:10.360 Oh, yeah.

01:49:16.560 biopic, of course.
01:49:18.060 We're going to be doing that as well.
01:49:19.320 That video is so impressive.
01:49:20.440 If you haven't gotten a chance to see it, we played a little bit of it here.
01:49:23.680 Court gesture, yeah.

01:49:27.280 That's cool, man.
01:49:28.320 Congratulations, dude, on staying creative.
01:49:30.640 And just on your propensity to be hopeful and positive for other people.
01:49:34.660 That's really, it's a nice gift to have, you know?
01:49:37.440 Yeah.
01:49:37.960 And then also, just so you know, I didn't say this, but we sleep the same.
01:49:42.180 I do the same thing.

01:50:05.160 I must be cornerstone.
01:50:10.380 Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind I found.
01:50:15.900 I can feel it in my bones, but it's gonna take...
01:50:21.960 God's make it in my head.
01:50:22.840 I will wish I can.
