Speaker 7 Oh my God, my brother

Speaker 7 took my mom's dildo. He must have been like five.
And he would go up the street, put it to his neck in front of all of his friends. He goes, if I had a hammer, I'd hammer in them all.

Speaker 7 And it would make his voice.

Speaker 1 And he was doing dildo bits at school.

Speaker 7 They didn't know what it was. And then I got to do just shoot me with George.
Yeah. And I said that to him.
And I said,

Speaker 7 and you.

Speaker 1 Jesus Christ.

Speaker 7 And then I remember they're going, Miss, Miss O'Turi, what do you want in your eggs? I go, what's your angle?

Speaker 1 David, what's up next?

Speaker 1 This is one of our favorites.

Speaker 1 We've had

Speaker 1 quite popular demand. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It is the way it is. I mean, we do these, we get comments on YouTube.
Even if it's an audio, people watch it on YouTube and then they tell us what they think.

Speaker 1 And I just hear out in the world, have Sherry O'Terry back on. She was really fun when she was on the show.

Speaker 1 And she's the kind that just goes all out on everything and she tells funny stories. And so we were like, well, she has to be on video so people can see what we see.
And so we just had her on.

Speaker 1 Right. Yeah, we wanted her back because we saw all the visual and she was funny just hearing the audio, but she also does these impressions of her mom and little characters.

Speaker 1 So it was great to have her back on video. So that's why this is sort of a cool one.
So you can see what we saw with the audio-only one. So here she is,

Speaker 1 friend of the show. Friend of the show.
One of the funniest people we've had on this show on Fly on the Wall. The one and only Sherry O'Terry.

Speaker 1 Sherry and I, for the last half hour, were talking about

Speaker 1 she

Speaker 1 called a nail salon and they say,

Speaker 1 Happy nail, how I help.

Speaker 7 Happy nail, how I help.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. I've gone into those places.

Speaker 7 And I love that because she always has an attitude.

Speaker 1 How I help.

Speaker 1 Is she mad that you're calling already?

Speaker 7 Oh, she's pissed. She got, she was pissed waking up.

Speaker 1 I hear so much about nail salons. I've never been in one, but it sounds like you haven't.
I know. They're slightly irritated.
You're there.

Speaker 7 You can tell by your hands.

Speaker 1 Here's my point.

Speaker 1 David,

Speaker 1 do you take baths?

Speaker 1 Baths. Do you take a bath?

Speaker 7 David, why don't you try saying hi to Gene?

Speaker 7 Who's Gene? Hi, Gene.

Speaker 1 Hi, Gene. God damn it.
Because the reason I go in there once in a while with my wife is because my feet are gnarly because I don't take baths and I can't really see. Anyway, do you have a loofah?

Speaker 1 I'm Dana Carvey, our guest today. Sure.

Speaker 1 No, I want to hear about the loofah because I have a loofah and I heard you're only supposed to keep them for two to six years before they get bacteria.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you got it right.

Speaker 1 I had a loofah all through college and it was so grimy, but didn't slow me down.

Speaker 1 I think that's how I got crabbed six times.

Speaker 1 It was that or a payphone. Our guest is Sherry O'Terry.
We're back from break.

Speaker 1 Back from break, and Sherry O'Terry is here by Popular Media. Demand.
Really? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, you were very popular.

Speaker 7 Oh, man. I'm so scared.
Now they're going to be like, wow, she was funnier when I couldn't see her.

Speaker 1 Yeah. That's definitely a danger.
But what it is, is you tell stories and then we can't see them. And then they were like, we want to see her.
And I'm like, I know. So next time.

Speaker 1 By the way, I know this is not related for sure, but you gave your little pillow there a nice little karate chop in the background.

Speaker 1 Isn't that a rabbit pillow or some kind of animal? Yeah, what is that?

Speaker 1 That's not a rabbit. No, no.

Speaker 1 Is that a rabbit? I can't see.

Speaker 7 Top-eyed.

Speaker 1 Sherry, come on. Let's go out.
I'm going on fly on the wall.

Speaker 7 You guys, congratulations. The show's doing so well.

Speaker 1 It's a comedy podcast of the year, whatever. Yeah.
Oh, that iHeart thing.

Speaker 7 Yeah, that little iHeart thing.

Speaker 1 That was political, but thank you.

Speaker 7 Pretty soon, David's going to be practicing hot G.

Speaker 1 No, I'm not that gross, Sherry. Sherry saw me pass out a Fiarella's.

Speaker 7 Oh, my God. Your friend's in the bathroom.
He's fainted. And I'm like,

Speaker 7 is he okay? Can you check? And

Speaker 7 then he comes walking out like hair, like, because he passes out. He's like, I need orange juice.
I'm like, no, you need to pay the check. It's your turn this time.

Speaker 1 You're getting a crook. Stop fainting, crowbar crowbar on my wallet.
Oh, yeah. Oh, Sherry, here comes a check.
I go, oh, I know what I'm allergic to. A check.

Speaker 7 And he's out.

Speaker 1 Dana, I was stressed.

Speaker 1 I know. Well, it was a thing.
We've talked about it before. Before you handled your hypoglycemic nature, you have candy bars everywhere, even in the elevator.
That's another story.

Speaker 1 Spade went down. You know, there'd be, but he's okay.
That would be in a read-through normally, which is a feintable

Speaker 1 situation.

Speaker 1 It was so,

Speaker 7 such, so funny in New York.

Speaker 7 Real casual, your friend's on the ground in the bathroom. And I'm like,

Speaker 7 could you check for a pulse? I mean, could you?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh, okay.
Yeah. You don't mean international superstar David Spig, do you?

Speaker 1 But they go, yeah, even though the waiter was like, you guys can be late for read-through. You know what I think happened, Sherry?

Speaker 1 I try to time it out without letting everyone know that I'm falling apart at the seams. So I said, okay, if she comes over to 11,

Speaker 1 we get down there. I'll have food by 11.20 or something.
Like it was a little too close. I don't have anything on me, which now I do usually.

Speaker 1 So she picks me up and she's like, here's her dumb bad idea. Let's walk.
I go, walk 30 blocks, Sherry.

Speaker 7 I walked all the time. It was the only time we were outside.

Speaker 1 I know it was a good idea. Because I wanted to get that six minutes of sunshine when it's above the buildings and it's like noon.
Yeah. And then it goes back to shade and shadows.

Speaker 1 but i mean i said oh my god this is gonna tack on

Speaker 1 to i gotta eat but i can't tell her so i started i got about two blocks away i started hearing hello dark

Speaker 1 she's like you're not listening to my story i'm like i'm trying to survive i

Speaker 1 can't believe i'm laughing

Speaker 1 you were at my house once in encino and you didn't say anything your eyes went back in your head and you jumped in your truck like okay you gotta go there was not like you all right or what gotta go and go to burger king now i want to put this in my head because i the audience may not know this story so this is sort of mid 90s and you guys are walking in manhattan down sixth avenue or something upper west side possibly all right and you don't really know each other but you're having lunch no we do kind of you did no we know each other the show and i said let's eat yeah i said let's eat i think we overlapped one year one year okay And it was, and we walked to work,

Speaker 1 Sherry's idea, obviously. And then we got there, and then I blanked out, and then drenched in sweat on the floor because I hadn't eaten.

Speaker 1 And then she was like, Oh, this guy's a real puss, but you know, this is what the show does to you. At least you saw.

Speaker 1 And then we got to work, and I we forgot about it.

Speaker 7 And then he would say, You would tell me the funniest stories.

Speaker 1 You go, uh,

Speaker 7 sure.

Speaker 7 I go at I go up to this really pretty girl at the bar and say, Hey,

Speaker 7 no, excuse me, um, aren't you, aren't you on on TV? Aren't you like really famous? And

Speaker 7 like, you're a real bona fide celebrity. You're like, you're amazing.
You're really talented. And oh my God.
I'm so sorry. That's me.

Speaker 1 Hi.

Speaker 1 That's a good line. I mean, I never heard that.

Speaker 1 David has a game. Now, I have to say that's partially true because

Speaker 1 I would try not to milk it that long when I go, oh my God, wait are you on tv oh no no wait that's me hi i'm dave

Speaker 1 david's thing is don't call me i'll call you

Speaker 7 that's you david you whenever you called me i was picked up and everything i called you uh nothing like flat line nothing

Speaker 1 sherry i want to jump ahead a few years you were in europe recently was it yesterday no it's like two weeks ago oh because I keep watching your Instagram and all your ridiculous.

Speaker 1 You kind of do what I do, where you just go do these stupid little things. I like when people tell me that.
They go, I like your stupid shit, you do.

Speaker 1 Your pointless, unfunny stuff. I like it.

Speaker 1 That's nice.

Speaker 7 I like when I get to, I have to turn the air conditioning on. I love when I get to do it.

Speaker 7 When I think of something last minute, anything I never, you know,

Speaker 7 do anything that's

Speaker 7 thought of, you know, as you can tell.

Speaker 1 Right, like thought out ahead. Yeah, that's why it was funny.
I saw a couple of them hysterical.

Speaker 7 Yeah, and then wait, but wait a second. I don't know what's going to happen, but guess who? Guess who calls me?

Speaker 1 Who? Dulcie Letts.

Speaker 1 Oh, I thought in my head when I saw that, I thought, Did she, is she doing an ad? I thought that she was.

Speaker 7 You know, because I did that because I always crack up at those commercials that start with,

Speaker 7 I like to live an active lifestyle.

Speaker 1 You know, and it's hard with poop in my diaper.

Speaker 7 And then they go on. And

Speaker 7 so that's what I was doing. I didn't hashtag Dulkalax or anything like that.
I just was, because I did it in Portugal too. I was doing a bike tour in Portugal.
Of course.

Speaker 7 And I go, I like to live an active lifestyle.

Speaker 7 And with Dulkalax, I can. Hard seat, soft stool.
Thanks, Dulcalax.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 that

Speaker 1 my mind is

Speaker 1 first of all, they were tidy and perfect, and you're right. Duck, who's who called you? And are you going to do a commercial? I just need to cut to the chase.

Speaker 7 Um, I don't know. I mean, I, I, uh, they're going back and forth and walking, and um, they also represent Cole Ace and Meta Musil.
So, nice,

Speaker 1 whoa,

Speaker 1 you're gonna be busy. I'm gonna have my own shit show.

Speaker 1 Oh, dude, welcome to my shit show.

Speaker 1 What do you have to do? Just say you poop your pants sometimes? That's fine. No.
No, you can't. You know, you guys.

Speaker 7 When I was going to do on New Year's Eve

Speaker 7 with Anderson and

Speaker 7 Andy on CNN's New Year's Eve, and I had done, I had written this thing where Barbara Walters was, you know, promoting her own podcast, of course, right?

Speaker 7 It was Barbara Walters' podcast from Statue to the Streets brought to you by Dulkalax. Hot interview, Sawstool.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 here,

Speaker 7 I had it all. I was so proud of this sketch.
And I rehearsed it the night before New Year's Eve. And then I went downstairs to meet my friend for dinner.
And I get a call. Sherry,

Speaker 7 Barbara just passed.

Speaker 1 Oh, no.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And ruined your bitch.

Speaker 1 Jeez. Yeah, but that's the first thing you thought.

Speaker 7 no i i actually thought

Speaker 7 i i don't think i should do it that's what i thought like you know um you can't do it you know uh but um i ended up after you cried about barbar walters for a while well i stayed up i stayed up all night and i just started writing down things you know and and then they said sherry we want you to say something you know about her on the show yeah instead of me doing my bit and then and so no yeah so so it was good that I started writing something and I and I wrote something.

Speaker 7 I go, listen, this is what I wrote, but, you know, I'll say whatever you want me to say. And they go, no,

Speaker 7 what we're going to say is what everybody is saying. But what you just are saying is something more personal, you know?

Speaker 7 And it was really weird because so many people reached out to me as if I

Speaker 7 was their daughter or something, you know, and I felt like I was glad that I said something.

Speaker 1 And what did you say? And where was it? At At home base and you came out. I'm Sherry.
No, Anderson Cooper is like outside.

Speaker 7 Yeah, they were both outside. And then they showed me interviewing her as her, because on the last day of the view, I interviewed her as her.
And I remember them saying, Sherry,

Speaker 7 she's never going to go for that. She's never going to go for that.
I'm like, that you asked me what I want to do. I want to.
So they had. I wrote it with Frank Santipietro.
I wrote something.

Speaker 7 They fly me in. We are dressed exactly alike.
We look exactly alike. We're sitting across from each other.
And she says,

Speaker 7 we're, you know, the cameras are setting up. And then she looks at the moment.
She goes, my hair, my hair.

Speaker 7 And her hair guy comes in.

Speaker 7 He walks off. And then she's making small talk with me.
And then she goes, my hair. Why, why does my hair look like this?

Speaker 7 And then her hair guy comes in and juzzhazer and then goes back and then we're right about to

Speaker 7 shoot. And then she looks at it and she goes,

Speaker 7 What the hell is going on with my hair?

Speaker 1 And then

Speaker 7 he whispers to her, he whispers, Barbara, you're looking at Sherry's monitor.

Speaker 1 Oh my god, she's got real? Yes.

Speaker 1 Oh fuck, I thought she's gonna go, My hair, meaning your hair.

Speaker 7 No, no, no. And the greatest thing was,

Speaker 7 she laughed so hard, and you know, she's so controlled that to see her laugh, like, yeah,

Speaker 7 you know, really laugh. Um,

Speaker 7 I mean, it made me feel so good. Still, no one fixed my hair, but um,

Speaker 1 no one cared about her. You're the comedian.
She's the comedian.

Speaker 1 Do your jokes, clown.

Speaker 7 But that was, that was like, that was like a highlight of my career in viewing her as her.

Speaker 1 I will say, Sherry, this is nothing to do with you, but

Speaker 1 and we'll cut it. But one time I got to get interviewed by Barbara Walters and then just a quick one.
And then afterwards, we took a picture. And then my mom loved her.

Speaker 1 So she goes, what's your mom's name? That's not a good one, but you know, you could say it. But I said, oh, Judy.
And then she took a piece of paper off my desk and just wrote a note to her.

Speaker 1 And then I put it in the picture and sent it to my mom. And that's sweet.

Speaker 7 That's really nice.

Speaker 1 That was nice of her. She was very sweet.
It was just one of these, like, I was part of a seven people,

Speaker 1 you know, like she'd do an hour of like interesting people.

Speaker 1 I would think I was watered down, like, marginally interesting people. That was like one of her.

Speaker 7 She gets so many, especially the top 10 most interesting people. Yeah.
You know,

Speaker 1 it was something like that.

Speaker 7 My, it's funny because my cousin Mary called me and she goes in Jersey and she goes, Sherry, you know, Barbara's leaving. You should do something.
And I go, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 Two weeks go by. She goes, Hey, I called the gang at the view.
I said, Excuse me?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 I called them at the view view and I told them that I think you should do something.

Speaker 7 And I go, you did what? And she goes, yeah, I talked to the producer. And I told him I thought you should do something.
He said it was a good idea. And that

Speaker 7 he'd get back to you when it was closer to. And I was like, all right, well, at least they were really nice to her.
That's sweet. And then like two months later, I get a call from the producer.

Speaker 7 Sherry, your cousin Mary called us with a good idea.

Speaker 7 I swear to you, it was because of my cousin Mary Mary O'Tieri that I got that interview to interview her as her. Oh, that's good.

Speaker 1 She was, my only story is that she wanted to interview me. I was at the Beverly's Hotel.

Speaker 1 I'd had some health issue and I'd gotten the tabloids and people were after me for kind of that, you know, type of interview. Got to get her to talk.
Break silence. So

Speaker 1 I would say that she left.

Speaker 1 25 voicemails all night long. I want Sherry to do the voice.
This is what she would say. Hi, Dan.
This is Barbara Walters.

Speaker 1 If we could just talk for a moment, I would appreciate it so much if you would call me back. And it was just all night long, more, more, more voicemails.
Are you serious?

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. She really wanted.
I mean, I saw why she's so successful. I mean, she was like relentless.

Speaker 7 She wanted me to host the show because I remember Meredith Vieira was stuck in Buffalo and it was a big snowstorm.

Speaker 7 And then I said, oh, you guys, I got a call that morning and I go, you, I'm not good at that. Like, I'm not a stand-up.
I'm, I'm very, I'm not good off the cuff.

Speaker 1 You mean you want a bit to do that you write, not to go off? Yes, yes.

Speaker 1 Because sometimes when you go on Stern, he goes, hey, dude, Donald Trump, if he just heard about this, and then you have to riff and riff. And it's very hard.
You guys have to stand up.

Speaker 7 You know what I mean? You have the, you know, you have that muscle. And so, and they go, oh.
Sherry, look out your window. And I looked out my window and there's a car with a driver standing.
He goes,

Speaker 7 she wants you in that car.

Speaker 1 Get in. Get in.

Speaker 1 Wow.

Speaker 7 And then I went and I did the show. And they were like, Wow, she was right.

Speaker 7 This is not. She doesn't know how to do it.

Speaker 1 This is not.

Speaker 1 I was quiet.

Speaker 7 I had, I was so nervous. I was, yeah, I was pretty quiet.
They didn't ask.

Speaker 1 Dana, your last four messages from her at 3 a.m. were like, you up, you up?

Speaker 1 And you're like, these are getting more like a booty call. Well, what would I would assume that you want to interview?

Speaker 1 Yo, yo, yo. Yeah, I want to interview.
I'm going to throw you one because I think you can talk. It's Barbara Walters.

Speaker 1 Just like, okay, she's at Baskin Robbins, but she can't decide which ice cream she wants. And she's really torturing the employees there.

Speaker 7 What is in the Moca Roca?

Speaker 1 Didn't take you too long. Are they nuts? Are they nuts?

Speaker 7 Because apparently everyone is dying from them.

Speaker 1 Angry.

Speaker 1 That's funny.

Speaker 1 Because I assume while you were on SNL, that when you had one of your characters and there was a couple of writers around, basically you would just riff, you know, and get things started.

Speaker 1 They'd laugh.

Speaker 1 They write for the hooks. Or there was a lot of that, I'll bet.

Speaker 7 Well, I started writing.

Speaker 7 Lauren really wanted me to do her on 2020. So I did.
And then

Speaker 7 Carol did Q Downs. Downs and

Speaker 1 probably did it perfectly. Amazing.
He was amazing. And then one guy told me, he goes, you think you're the biggest star in Arizona? You know who is? Cue Downs.
I go, okay, no argument.

Speaker 1 I hope he's out of the way now.

Speaker 7 And then that led to interviewing, you know, she was everywhere. She was, you know, and then once I got comfortable doing her, it was a blast.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
What about what is the lady? What was she talking about, Dana, when she was on and she kept acting on her mom coming in the room or something? What was that story?

Speaker 1 Oh, when you were on before, there was we were dying because it was just all about your childhood and your fantasy life coming home.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, you were like, think you're in a soap office watching soap, and you had this fantasy life, and then your mother sometimes would be disappointed and come in the room and say stuff.

Speaker 1 Would you just give us no?

Speaker 7 It was when I was growing up, it was dog eat dog, it was chaos.

Speaker 7 I mean,

Speaker 7 things were thrown. There was no semblance of any kind of civility.
And so I was really

Speaker 7 hooked on, I was hooked on soap operas because of the civility.

Speaker 7 And I thought, and I thought, I want our home life to be like that, where the TV isn't on 24 hours a day.

Speaker 7 And then she would come home and I would set up on our radiator and mock bar because in the 70s, they always came home. And the soap arrives, I went straight to the bar and opened the carafe.

Speaker 7 And I would put Kool-Aid in a see-through vase and have the

Speaker 7 ice cubes in my jelly glass. You know, all those jellies that

Speaker 7 turned into a glass with the cartoon characters on it. And I'd have a scarf around my neck.

Speaker 1 You're by yourself. How old are you? No, she's waiting for her mom to get home.

Speaker 7 You're 10? No, no, no. It was truly, it was like in my mind.

Speaker 7 She's walking up the outside outside, the front porch steps, and I'm like, action.

Speaker 7 And then she walks in and I said, oh, mother, you startled me. I wasn't expecting you.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 7 I said, I've got my test results back today. And you know how I would always stare

Speaker 7 at the camera in my mind because in soapbox, the person stood in back of them and they kept looking front.

Speaker 1 You know, they never turned back.

Speaker 7 And because I'm thinking the camera's right here. And I would say, I got my test results back.

Speaker 7 And then she was still whitening me. And I go,

Speaker 7 Would you like to know? And she goes, Who the fuck are you talking to?

Speaker 1 Turn around.

Speaker 7 And I'm like, Cut.

Speaker 7 Let's set this up again. You know, she can't curse.
She can't curse.

Speaker 7 And then I would

Speaker 7 do it again. And I would just,

Speaker 7 I would pretend we were like in a soap opera. And I would be the only one speaking that way.
But, you know,

Speaker 7 it was just really

Speaker 7 me living in a fantasy world and always pretending like we had a normal home. You know, I used to.

Speaker 1 Did you ever have therapy and talk about this?

Speaker 1 It's pretty heady stuff. Or is this it with us? We had really,

Speaker 1 this is pretty much it. I mean, I'm a licensed therapist.
So

Speaker 1 I am weird. We do this to see which one's the least crazy, but we're also crazy.

Speaker 7 No, but that was, that was the good that came out of it. You know what I mean? That wasn't, that wasn't what I talked about.
You know, it was maybe what made me do that.

Speaker 7 But that was me waking up and, okay, how can I make my world?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Didn't you do a biblical one too with a ladle or something?

Speaker 7 Oh, I remember watching.

Speaker 1 I loved

Speaker 7 the Ten Commandments.

Speaker 1 Yes, me too.

Speaker 7 And I would go into the kitchen and she'd be talking to her friend, and she always said, What do you want?

Speaker 1 And when you'd walk in and interrupt her.

Speaker 7 Yeah, what do you want?

Speaker 7 Mother, I thought I'd get maybe a beverage, a glass of Kool-Aid. Hi, Adele.
It's nice to see you again. You know, and I was always talking as if we were civilized.
And

Speaker 7 then she said, one more time, what do you you want?

Speaker 7 And then I'd go, mom, will you, and I would get a ladle and I would fill it with water. And I'd go, will you just hand this to me? And she's like,

Speaker 7 what the fuck, Sherry? And then my mom's friend would say, I'll hand it to you, honey. And then my mom would go, I'll hand it to her.
And so she would hand it to me and I would drink it.

Speaker 7 I'd go, you are kind.

Speaker 7 And then I would say to her friend, I would say to her friend, you are strong. You stood up to the Malachite.

Speaker 7 And

Speaker 7 you are strong like fool. You stood up to the Malachite.

Speaker 7 I will dwell in this land. I will partake of your bounty.
And she goes, dwell in the other room.

Speaker 7 It's like, go watch Killigan's Island. I'm constantly having to yell in my mind, cut!

Speaker 1 Cut!

Speaker 1 It was going so good, too.

Speaker 1 Who hired her? Who hired her?

Speaker 7 who did she sleep with to get this job

Speaker 7 who was there a lady that said um what remember this one dana when she goes i i'm keeping this when you say i'm keeping it's funny that's a normal thing with neighbors when you throw in their yard That was from when I was a little girl, my grandmom, before the, this was before the, the, uh, in Atlantic City, before the casinos, and everybody from South Philly was

Speaker 7 there. Everybody from South Philly had,

Speaker 7 was in this area, area and everybody's grandmother lived with them and they all policed the street with in their house coats and slippers and knee highs and um i just remember we would all be playing ball in the street and whenever anything would land on uh

Speaker 7 like my grandmom's porch or anybody's porch the grandmother would come i keep it now have your mother come get it you happy Yeah, I see that finger.

Speaker 1 I'll break it.

Speaker 7 You know, somebody gave her the finger.

Speaker 7 But really, they just wanted the person's mother to come over so they could, you know, shoot the shit.

Speaker 1 And so,

Speaker 1 you know, send your mother over. Yeah.
Some things are so funny that

Speaker 1 I can't laugh at the moment, but I just wanted for a second to go back where the friend says they'll hand you the ladle and you take a drink.

Speaker 1 And what did you say to the friend after you took the drink?

Speaker 7 I said,

Speaker 7 Yeah,

Speaker 7 you are strong. You stood up to the Malachite.

Speaker 7 I will dwell in this land. I will partake of your bounty.
It's all from the Ten Commandments.

Speaker 1 I know, but it's just so.

Speaker 1 So, how often did this happen? Yeah, it's great. I mean, was it every day? Was it twice a week? Did you have siblings? And were they at all?

Speaker 7 Nobody truly knew what I was doing. No one

Speaker 1 was secret.

Speaker 7 Nobody cared. It was almost like I was truly in.

Speaker 1 my own world.

Speaker 7 And you guys, I have to say, you know, I wrote a movie about it

Speaker 1 oh you did called our lady talk about this yes i think you were starting to write it or something so what what or tell us about that because i think you were it's called what

Speaker 7 our lady of perpetual sorrow

Speaker 7 it's the name of the catholic school she goes to

Speaker 7 our lady of perpetual sorrow is playing um uh tears of st. joseph's this weekend are you going

Speaker 1 it's like

Speaker 7 the catholic school names were horrendous

Speaker 1 We had OLPH. Is that a normal one? Our Lady of Perpetual Help? Oh,

Speaker 7 yeah, I think that is.

Speaker 1 So it was Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow.

Speaker 1 Oh, it is.

Speaker 1 Oh, sorrow sounds like more of a bummer. You're right.

Speaker 7 I know, but I just think it's so funny that that's the name of this.

Speaker 1 So you wrote this movie and

Speaker 1 was it?

Speaker 1 And it's really about your, this, this part of your childhood. I just, this popped to my head.
I don't even talk about it before. Did your mom

Speaker 1 was she around for your smashing fame blast success?

Speaker 7 Yeah, she was, um,

Speaker 7 uh, she was living, she was, she's in Philly.

Speaker 1 Okay,

Speaker 1 disbelief. I mean, because then did it all connect for her? This kid is always acting out and doing these things.

Speaker 7 I truly don't think so. She, I imagine her saying she was alone a lot.
Huh.

Speaker 1 Some parents are jealous.

Speaker 1 Some parents are jealous when their kids, if they had aspirations, especially sometimes you read that they're kind of actually a little bit jealous of their own child's success in show business if they didn't get to pursue it.

Speaker 7 I don't think she could have imagined that that would have happened, you know, at all.

Speaker 1 At all.

Speaker 7 And then I saw her in an interview once. Somebody interviewed her in Philadelphia and she's like, oh, I always knew.
Like,

Speaker 1 what?

Speaker 7 Like, what? I mean, my brother and I did make her laugh a lot, but I grew up, I was very influenced by my mom. You know, she wasn't very

Speaker 1 happy.

Speaker 7 And so I did whatever I could to make her happy. So

Speaker 7 she listened. And whenever she laughed, I paid attention.

Speaker 7 Whenever she laughed, and she listened to comedy albums all the time. She listened to George Carlin, Chee Chin Chong.
She listened to Bill Cosby. She listened to Woody Allen.
And

Speaker 7 I

Speaker 7 and I swear it all that stuff stuck in my head. And even if I didn't understand something, I would understand it in the context of what they said, you know, and that probably,

Speaker 7 I think that's what made my sense of humor maybe a little bit more advanced you know than my age was listening and memorizing these albums and

Speaker 7 I remember when I was in school I was like second grade and they said

Speaker 7 you know who has it has a joke they'd like to tell and you know a kid is like why'd the guy throw butter out the window I don't know Timmy why he wanted to see a butterfly oh that was very very good and I'm like

Speaker 7 I went to the doctor the other day and he told me I was schizophrenic. I said, no, I'm not.
Neither am I.

Speaker 1 And this is like second grade.

Speaker 7 The nun goes, put your head down, Miss Otiri.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, oh.

Speaker 1 I'm like, ooh, rough crowd, rough crowd.

Speaker 1 You're just doing an album of God. I'm eight years old.
Yeah.

Speaker 7 Killed in my living room.

Speaker 1 That's funny because you probably, yeah, it's a little more sophisticated when you're seeing what makes her laugh. And then you go, what about that joke?

Speaker 1 If I don't get it, what's the funny part there? What is she like about that? And you have to break it down a little bit.

Speaker 7 I just hearing her laugh was

Speaker 1 music to my ears, sure, you know, especially in a stressful house.

Speaker 7 And then I remember I never saw her laugh so hard. And she watched this movie, Where's Papa with George Siegel and Ruth Gordon? And she was crying, laughing so hard.

Speaker 7 And then I got to do just shoot me with George.

Speaker 7 Yeah. And I said that to him.
And I said,

Speaker 1 and you.

Speaker 1 Jesus Christ. She's easy.

Speaker 1 He's great. I mean, David was the fawn.
I was of that show. No, I don't know if you remember.
I was on the set too. If you look at the call shit, if you haven't won.

Speaker 1 No, I love George. He was so funny.
God damn it.

Speaker 7 But I would love to, I had, and he got such a kick. I'd go, I never saw my mother as a kid laugh so hard as when she watched you and Ruth Gordon and

Speaker 7 Where's Papa? And he's like, really? Really? He was very sweet. It was so fun to do that show, Just Shoot Me.

Speaker 1 For sure. What was this? You were an assistant that obsessed with Maya or something?

Speaker 7 No, like I was kind of like,

Speaker 7 they were treating me as if I were kind of like a dog that they rescued.

Speaker 1 Did you do an ARC?

Speaker 7 Yeah,

Speaker 7 they brought me back again. And then I got nominated for an Emmy.
And I'm thinking to myself, this was me. Sherry, you got nominated for an Emmy.
I was like, oh, oh my God, for SNL.

Speaker 7 And they go, no, just shoot me.

Speaker 1 And I go, that was a cakewalk.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. I mean,

Speaker 7 how, like, I'm writing and I'm like, you know, working my ass all night long writing and, you know, for SNL. And

Speaker 7 I get nominated for

Speaker 7 like going on a vacation, doing your show is like the first sitcom I ever did. And I was like, my God, this is amazing.
No matter what, you're going to be written for.

Speaker 1 God, that's exactly how I felt getting on it. And I had all these great writers and I'm like, they'll put you 90% there.

Speaker 1 They'll go, if you think of an ending, just or if you think of something here, just put it. And I'm like, so wait, you're writing for me every week.
I know. And then I just say it and it's funny.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, this is a miracle.

Speaker 7 And David, what was so wonderful is they got your voice. And so that was interesting to watch.
Like you saw the beginning of the show and everything.

Speaker 7 And then it was just like they knew how to write for you because your voice was so

Speaker 7 strong, you know. And I was just, and then I remember they're going, Miss, Miss Otiri, what do you in your eggs?

Speaker 1 I go, what's your angle?

Speaker 7 What do I want in my eggs? What do you mean?

Speaker 1 You're bringing me breakfast. What do you want?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Such a gift. Those things are good.
You get on a sitcom that's good and it's just so much fun.

Speaker 7 Miss Otiri, could you hand me this ladle?

Speaker 1 Okay. No.

Speaker 7 It was just, I couldn't believe what a great atmosphere it was.

Speaker 1 I remember when you pitched, what if my character recites the whole 10 commandments movie? And we were like, well, it feels like it would be too long.

Speaker 1 It's funny when you're a kid, those movies are on like three times a month.

Speaker 1 And then when you're an adult, you never.

Speaker 7 I know, I know. We dated all year.
And then I remember moving to California and I was going to Ralph's in my car and I had my turn signal on and this guy just right in front of me and got right.

Speaker 7 And I, I put my car in park. I didn't park it.
I put it in park, got out, went over to the guy, and he gets out. And it was Charlton Heston.

Speaker 1 No. Yes.
Wow.

Speaker 7 And I was like,

Speaker 1 Dana, what would he say?

Speaker 1 I've never seen you before. No, I'm doing Phil Hartman.
Sorry.

Speaker 1 Charlton Heston was.

Speaker 1 the host when I was there. And Lauren's dream with church lady would be with, you know, most of us.

Speaker 1 And then there was a meeting in the office and just not my cup of tea. And then Lauren kept pushing.
And I was like, no, no, no, it's all right. You don't have to do it.
You don't have to do it.

Speaker 7 But that was Lauren's dream. And Billy, Billy Crystal, his album,

Speaker 7 I cracked up. My mom loved Billy Crystal and I loved him.
And he does. Do you ever think of the worst casting ever? And he said, How about Edward G.
Robinson and the Ten Commandments?

Speaker 7 Where's your Messiah now, Moshe? Where's your Moshiah now?

Speaker 1 I I remember that. I listened to Billy Crystal.
That was funny. Even when I was eight years old,

Speaker 1 where's your messiah now?

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 fancy saying, yeah, fancy sound, some kind of God person, eh?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I was the same way. I saw it when I was seven or something, and then I came home and there was a Bible, and I started reading it.
I was like, completely converted.

Speaker 7 I know. I know.
It made me feel, you know, because I went to Catholic school and it just like, you know, reinforced everything. And I was such a big Jesus fan

Speaker 1 growing up. When I used to, Sherry, when I was younger, I'd be watch like the rock block of like happy days and the Rene Shirley and whatever else and then MASH and shit.

Speaker 1 And I'd always want my mom to watch it with me. And I don't know why.
I wanted her to laugh.

Speaker 1 And then she'd just be kind of half paying attention. Luckily, we didn't have phones.
She'd be on her phone, but she'd stare at it and then she'd kind of drift off.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, this is a shitty one, you know, because I want her so badly laugh. But, you know, it just wasn't her cup of tea, you could tell, but she would be excited that I liked it.

Speaker 1 But I, you, I was the same way. You wanted her to crack up.

Speaker 7 Oh, I wanted.

Speaker 1 Because she was always stressed out.

Speaker 7 Oh, my God. It was like she was not happy.
And that was before, you know, like antidepressants and, and, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 Yeah, they were raw dogging it. Yeah.

Speaker 7 They were raw dogging it. Yeah.
She, I don't think, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 She wasn't even a drinker. I'm like, mom, go ahead and drink.
I'll give you this. It's the dad left.
You got three asshole kids. I mean, I know.

Speaker 7 i remember skip smelling pot one time and um

Speaker 7 but here's a funny thing i used to like clean her room make her bed and you know so she'd come home and be really happy you know and i'll never forget lifting her mattress up and i was a kid and i'm like there was a gun a dildo and a bag of something

Speaker 1 a satchel and this was me a go bag this was me i'm like the

Speaker 7 i was a kid and i just thought I don't know what's in that satchel, but I'm not going to look.

Speaker 1 No, that was heartbreaking. More dildos.

Speaker 7 No, no, no. I'm thinking it's got to be, it might be bullets or drugs or or whatever, but I'm like, you know, a little girl innocent making my mom's bed.

Speaker 1 It's five grand, a go bag. She just goes, sorry, guys, got to go past

Speaker 1 every kid at some point. rifles through their parents.

Speaker 7 Oh my God. My brother

Speaker 7 took my mom's dildo. He must have been like five.

Speaker 7 and he would go up the street put it to his neck in front of all his friends he go if i have a hammer i'd hammer in them on and it would make his voice uh

Speaker 7 and um he was doing dildo bits at school well they didn't know what it was and he would just turn it on and put it to his neck and uh that well the folk music uh

Speaker 1 mashup was pretty powerful mashup and i can say all his friends let me try let me try and uh this dildo is your dildo. This dildo is my dildos seem fun if you don't know what they're for.

Speaker 7 Right. And my mom, of course, is not going to say, where's my dildo? We're like, what's a dildo?

Speaker 7 Yeah. But that's in the movie.

Speaker 1 She's like, Did you see my squirt gun? It's kind of like a squirt gun. It's kind of, how do I describe it?

Speaker 7 Did you see my rocket?

Speaker 1 You know, my judd apothecary is a bit where he says, the guy had this growing up in high school. And he says, it's hard to whisper.
He's like, at a party going,

Speaker 1 So, Sherry. Buddy.
Sherry. Buddy.
Now, you never caught up with Pudgy Wudgie.

Speaker 7 Pudgy Wudgie?

Speaker 1 Pudgy Wudgie was in France. France.

Speaker 1 You were screaming at some Pudgy Wudgie.

Speaker 7 Yeah, that was

Speaker 7 when I was on the beach in New Jersey. And when we were kids, there was...
Well, you're keeping up with the Kardashians. I'm keeping up with the Fudgy Wudgie man at the Jersey Shore.

Speaker 1 Fudge Wudgies!

Speaker 1 Dude, you hit that?

Speaker 1 Are you vlogging your day?

Speaker 7 Well, I'm actually watching my weight.

Speaker 1 I shouldn't have a Fudgy Wedgie. I'm watching my weight.

Speaker 1 Yeah, just you.

Speaker 1 Improv is listening. Okay.

Speaker 7 That got like a million or something.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, I'm sure screaming. Fudgy Wedge.

Speaker 7 You know, because when we were kids, it was a Fudgy Wedgie guy. And these guys, when we were kids, were all like.

Speaker 7 like old Vietnam vets and they were carrying this freezer on their back. They didn't have the wheels and they were miserable and dripping, and just miserable guys.

Speaker 7 But we would, you know, scream, Fudgy, wudgy.

Speaker 7 I said to my friend, Mary Joe, I go, what if we screamed as adults like we did when we were kids for the fudgy, wudgy guy? So that's what I, why I did that.

Speaker 7 But then when I caught up to him, I saw how good looking he was. I was like,

Speaker 7 who is that asshole screaming? Because I'm just a lady.

Speaker 1 I think she ran off. I saw that little attitude at the end.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I know. He was hot.
He was, he got all up in your shot.

Speaker 7 Very hot. And then, but he was a kid too, you know.
And then a friend of my friend called me and she goes, that's my friend's son. And I'm like, yeah, yeah, that's right.
That's right.

Speaker 7 And then the next day or two days later, I did it. That guy was even better looking than that guy.
And I went up and screamed.

Speaker 7 I was like, holy, these fudgy wudgy guys are not my fudgy wudgy guys anymore.

Speaker 1 Did you do your fudgy wudgy bit again?

Speaker 7 Yeah, I did.

Speaker 7 But now everybody's like, oh, fudgy wudgy. And I'm like,

Speaker 7 they were doing a fudgy wudgie calendar because these guys are so hot. So I think I pretty much gave her the idea, the one who owns the fudgy wudgy kind of franchise.

Speaker 7 And then they wanted me to come out and do the calendar and scream their names. Or just be in the calendar.
And I'm like,

Speaker 7 okay, I go out.

Speaker 7 And she's supposed to pay for the air.

Speaker 7 Didn't pay for it.

Speaker 1 Look at how far this story goes. Didn't pay for it.
Okay.

Speaker 7 She told me where she was putting me up.

Speaker 7 She didn't put me up there. It was like a dive motel.
And she just kind of got me under the, out there under false pretenses. And it never happened.

Speaker 1 And she kind of fudged the truth. Yeah.

Speaker 7 She, yeah, she fudged the truth. But

Speaker 7 yeah, it's so funny, like what people like.

Speaker 1 It's, it's crazy.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I would say immediately when I heard it is that it wasn't so much enthusiastic.
There was an aggression to it.

Speaker 1 And then saying fudgy wudgy, super innocent, silly ice cream, but a real aggression.

Speaker 1 I mean, so that's a lady doing instead of a kid. Well, yeah, I mean,

Speaker 7 I just thought, I'll just say that. And I just wanted to make her laugh.
You know, and I was like,

Speaker 7 my friend laughed because that's what we did when

Speaker 7 the ice cream man came down the street. My brother would scream at the top of his lungs, wait a minute!

Speaker 1 Wait a minute!

Speaker 7 And then you'd have to go get the dollar from your mom, and then you know, make sure it stopped, the truck stopped. Yeah,

Speaker 1 yeah.

Speaker 1 You also do stuff. Sometimes I do like a museum, like when I'm on the road, you go to do something you never do, and then you just do bits inside because, like, you're in a museum, right?

Speaker 7 Oh, yeah, I was at um the Palace of Versailles.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 and then you're filming shenanigans, uh, yeah, you know, know,

Speaker 7 you just get,

Speaker 7 you know, because I was looking at everything and I was just, you know, getting, I was interested and then a little bored, interested, a little bored.

Speaker 7 So whenever I got bored, I was just, I would just like film what I saw.

Speaker 1 Of course. On the thing.
It's funny.

Speaker 1 It's always funny to do that shit. It kills time.
We're on the road. We go, let's go to the zoo.
Let's go to museum. Whatever's in the title.

Speaker 7 And I never think of that when I'm home. It's always when I'm away, something will make me say, oh,

Speaker 7 let me shoot this. Let me, let me get this, you know?

Speaker 1 Well, you're out of your element, I think. You're out of what you do every day.
And so suddenly it's, you have to have new adventures to think of new bits and stuff.

Speaker 7 Yeah. I mean,

Speaker 7 yeah, I guess so. You know, you have to be, you know, inspired.
And I'm not inspired when I'm home.

Speaker 1 Right. Wow.
This is with the Dukalux, what is it? Dukalux? With that one, would you say to your, you, friend, I'll be there and I'm going to drive past frame and you're going to hit it like in turn.

Speaker 1 And, you know. Yeah.
But that had a slight moment of planning just for a second. No.
You go there. No.
No, because we were.

Speaker 7 We were, we were at, here it was. We were on another tour and getting the history of Paris.
And I'm like,

Speaker 7 all right. So I learned enough.
I think we're going to do something funny. And so I said to my friend, here, just get me a.
get me a riding down the street.

Speaker 1 Stay on me. Stay on me.

Speaker 7 But I'm telling you, wherever I go, I love to do bike tours. Love to do bike tours.
I don't want to walk. I want to bike.
Oh, wow.

Speaker 1 Oh, there we are. Oh, there we are.

Speaker 1 Forgot about your tag. Yeah, again, that piercing thing screaming.
You laugh because it's so violent and it's

Speaker 1 great.

Speaker 1 You have a good yell.

Speaker 7 Who's the soft, pretty lady?

Speaker 1 When was the last time you did Cheerleaders?

Speaker 1 On the show.

Speaker 1 Oh, really?

Speaker 1 What did you do on the 50th? I missed it. Were you there? Did you do it?

Speaker 7 No, I was not asked to do anything. I sat in the audience.

Speaker 1 Bastards. That's fine.

Speaker 1 Waste of talent.

Speaker 1 Sure.

Speaker 7 But Adam gave me a shout out in his song. Oh, he did.
Yeah. And I thanked him afterwards.
I go, hey thanks that was the most i was in the show

Speaker 7 what did he say he's like of course i'm gonna name you he was sweet no what did you say in the song he sung that song and he named you know yeah people on snl

Speaker 1 oh he didn't name me prick

Speaker 1 um i think he's nominated for well you were actually on the show so

Speaker 7 You know, you were a favorite child.

Speaker 1 No, that was a nice one. He had the line of the night.
We've talked about it when he was in the audience. That was the line of the night.
What was it? David had it. Yeah.
Oh, I got a feel for it.

Speaker 1 Yeah. The big Broadway production.

Speaker 1 Were you there for that, Sherry? Or did you leave by the John Mulaney?

Speaker 7 Yeah. Honey, you were so funny.

Speaker 1 Okay, that was more like it. Thank you.
You were really, really funny.

Speaker 1 And everybody was like, Where's Dana?

Speaker 7 Because everybody wants a controversy.

Speaker 1 Dana.

Speaker 7 Where's Dana? Where's Dana?

Speaker 1 Where's where's where's Bill Hayter? Where's Dan Aykroyd?

Speaker 1 Are they hanging out somewhere? Yeah. Dan Aykroyd, Bill Hayter, and Dana.
No, they go, Dana, like, I'm your caretaker. They're like, where's Dana? I'm like, oh, I shouldn't say, but he's not here.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's funny they even notice. You know, you're a big star because it's such a shit show of everywhere you turn, there's somebody famous.

Speaker 1 So for them to even, it would have taken me weeks to go, oh, wait, you know, who wasn't there? You know, because you just don't know. It's a blur.

Speaker 7 Well, there were so many famous people there that it was like he was also servicing, you know, people outside of the

Speaker 7 cast. Right.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you got hosts that can do whatever they want. You've got

Speaker 1 Sabrina Carpenter. You have newer stars, and you have Paul Simon.
They put them together.

Speaker 1 I would say the good nights for me watching it on television was this like, and seeing Lauren's body posture and the look on his face. And like, his whole life is there.

Speaker 1 It was like a movie, basically.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Just him there, 50 years, you know, and just

Speaker 1 what can I say about cash? Just Lauren's kind of shy about his feelings, you know.

Speaker 1 Really? He hugged me and said, I love you so much.

Speaker 1 I'm glad Dana's not here.

Speaker 1 I said, Lauren, he said, You can't. I'll never repeat this.
I'll never say I said this.

Speaker 1 You'll find that David's fair.

Speaker 1 Sherry will always bring something to the table.

Speaker 1 nice and vague yeah right and um

Speaker 7 uh make sure david has some spaghettios waiting and then everybody i know doesn't say anything to me after the show but i had to you know because

Speaker 7 you know they were wondering why i wasn't

Speaker 7 and uh

Speaker 7 but

Speaker 7 i did have the whole week was really fun when I was there um

Speaker 7 what else? Oh, and then doing Andy Cohen, bravo. That was so much fun with the girls.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, that's right. Sure.
Are you okay? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay. I just saw what happened.

Speaker 1 So what about after the show, usually they get to just go, hey, good show, good show. But if you weren't in it, which they don't even know, you could have played a piece of toast in that millennium.

Speaker 1 No one can remember who exactly was in it. If you had told me you were in it, I would go, oh,

Speaker 1 great.

Speaker 1 Too long of a show to really remember. Yeah.

Speaker 1 A million sketches. Everyone was playing up Statue of Liberty or something.

Speaker 7 I had a good seat.

Speaker 1 No, you had a good seat. Was anyone near you that was exciting to see?

Speaker 1 Rob Schneier.

Speaker 7 Schneider. Yeah, I saw Rob and then Kevin Nealon was sitting next to me and we were laughing.

Speaker 1 Oh, Nealon's a good laugh. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Did you go down and talk to Nicholson and sit on his lap? I did. Wait a minute.
Is Jack Nicholson Nicholson there?

Speaker 1 He was.

Speaker 1 He was in Adam's song, too.

Speaker 1 Maybe he just came out for the song. He did a little line.
Oh, really? Were you in the spillover theater? Was it in 30 Rock or were you down at the wharf? No.

Speaker 7 I didn't see.

Speaker 1 Was he really there? Did you see Miley Cyrus? She was in the front row.

Speaker 7 Oh, yeah. Well, she sung.

Speaker 1 That's how you know if they were there.

Speaker 7 Yeah. So.
So, yeah, Jack.

Speaker 1 I think Jack came out mainly for Adam's song, and then I think he

Speaker 1 went out because I think he was in not 100% health. I don't know for sure, but I when I walked by, my of course

Speaker 1 graced him with my presence.

Speaker 7 Are you doing grown-ups

Speaker 7 easy,

Speaker 1 grown-ups three or four easy Lisa Gibbons?

Speaker 1 Wait,

Speaker 1 we're Adam's ex

Speaker 7 called Lisa Gibbons.

Speaker 1 You see, Nancy O'Dell.

Speaker 1 Wait, you were in Grownups 2, was it? Or first, or one?

Speaker 7 Yeah, two. That was, that was.

Speaker 1 Oh, and you fucking wear your beret that Adam gave you. And it's so hilarious.

Speaker 7 And I love Steve Buscemi played my husband.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's right. That's cool.
That's right. Oh, my God.
How many times do people go, I saw you in grown-ups because it's on every single day?

Speaker 7 Oh, my gosh. You know, the people say, you know, this new gen, then new generation, they say, aren't you the girl from

Speaker 7 grown-ups?

Speaker 1 You know, because

Speaker 7 they never watched the SNL, but no. But yeah, that was, that was really fun.

Speaker 1 I think I get grown-ups more than anything now because it's on so much. Yeah.

Speaker 1 For sure.

Speaker 1 Talking about

Speaker 1 the big dumb comedy

Speaker 1 of the 90s and

Speaker 1 era are, you know, they kind of stand out, you know, because they're just trying to be balls out funny physically and they're silly. I don't know.

Speaker 1 I think that some of the young people, there's so much,

Speaker 7 they like, you know, what I would love seeing it on Instagram. I love when they show outtakes of Tommy Boy.

Speaker 7 Oh my God, I crack up so hard.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 I love it because when I first saw it, I never saw it.

Speaker 1 I didn't know what to do.

Speaker 7 I mean, you and him together were just,

Speaker 7 I mean, on and off, your friendship was just so adorable, but I could not, I cracked up at you two,

Speaker 7 like just playing like brothers.

Speaker 1 Right. Just fucking up lines.
And he would try to screw up every line and he'd laugh so hard or he'd yell at the crew. And half the time I'd only react.
So I'm like, my God, we're on hour 15.

Speaker 1 You can't keep doing this.

Speaker 1 He would be like mayor of the set. We'd walk in and he goes, Hey, Steve, how are you? Did little Jimmy play this weekend? Okay.
Is he first base? I'm like, are you running for mayor?

Speaker 1 Let's go do the scene. Okay, then.
And then,

Speaker 1 but the one thing he did that I didn't do that I think I admitted that was so rude is when I went to his trailer to leave. And that was after about a month of shooting.

Speaker 1 And I went in there and he got his shit. And shockingly, all his wardrobe was folded on the bed.
And then

Speaker 1 I go, you fold all your wardrobe when you leave? He goes, yeah, don't you? And I go,

Speaker 1 he goes, where is it? I go, I don't know, all over the room. I just take it off and put my clothes on and leave.
He's like, what a dick. I go, I know, right?

Speaker 1 i didn't know you did that i swear to god that's how stupid i am so he would fold his little outfits on and put him on the bed with the shoes so when wardrobe came are you sure that was a wardrobe he didn't have to do that because they're gonna throw him in a big bag and wash right but that was like a nice thing of growing up like he learned

Speaker 1 i didn't learn that part so uh uh that's admittedly me being wrong in that situation but overall i remember the tommy boy one that i laughed the hardest at was when he's on the bed with me and he goes i go he goes Zelinski's gonna come and he'll say it was I go yeah you're like he's even 99

Speaker 1 and I said it weird and he goes oh my god what a dick he just starts laughing so hard but he got I don't even know if we ruined it if it ruined that take

Speaker 1 it was in the movie and I think they used that take

Speaker 1 because it was a pause

Speaker 1 and then he started laughing

Speaker 1 and his laugh was so hilarious when I said no wonder that

Speaker 7 yeah it's not even like he's working you know what I mean it's not even like you guys are working, you're just like goofing and getting to say funny lines and crack up at each other.

Speaker 1 Yeah, 100%.

Speaker 1 Um, all right, we'll let you go. We'll probably do a part three one day because it's so funny to have you.
Yeah, so much fun. Uh, thank you, Sherry.
Love talking to you, love seeing you.

Speaker 7 I love you guys, and um, I'm so happy that you're killing it. Congratulations,

Speaker 1 Jesus.

Speaker 1 Well, Scoob, keep your mouth shut, Scoob. Is that your dog, Dana? No, it's not my dog.

Speaker 1 I'm more donkeys,

Speaker 1 spiders.

Speaker 1 Well, we just had Sherry O'Terry, who

Speaker 1 we really like and was

Speaker 1 backed by Pop Demand. And

Speaker 1 she held up, of course. It was kind of fun, you know, because we wanted you all to see, you know, her.

Speaker 1 Doing her mom and these kind of now they're infamous stories of her childhood. Yeah, she really goes deep with it.
I like that part. She doesn't care.

Speaker 1 She just says, really, what's going on in that childhood. And I think a lot of people relate to that.
Yeah. She's just, she just has just a funny, funny vibe.

Speaker 1 Like, really, just, you start laughing when you see her. Effervescence.
I like when she screams the jokes at the people. It's so goddamn hilarious.

Speaker 1 You're right. It's also a little

Speaker 1 anger. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Very angry. Just sounds funny.
Hudgy wudgy.

Speaker 1 Wudgie, fucking wudgy.

Speaker 1 Well, we hope you liked it. And thank you.
Oh, she also has a new project, and

Speaker 1 it's a new charcuterie board, but she will tell you about it. And she made a little video.
She made a little video for you all to see. And we'll see you in the phone on Flan the Wall without a guest.

Speaker 7 What I'm so excited is about is I'm known for having doing great charcuterie boards. And so I went to Philly and my cousin works for this gourmet grocery store called De Bruno Brothers.

Speaker 7 They have six stores in

Speaker 7 Philadelphia, all over the area. And so they asked me if I would design my own charcuterie board

Speaker 7 for their site

Speaker 7 and it's called the characuterie board. Now you're asking fellas, Sherry, what will I get in my charicuterie box? I'll tell you what you'll get.

Speaker 7 Fellas, you're going to get a Maestri Progiuto italiano. You are going to get de Bruno Brothers Italian market pepperoni.

Speaker 7 You are gonna get Colton Bassett Stilton and you are gonna get Parmesan Reggiano and a cheese called a Comte Essex reservation. This cheese is so delicious.

Speaker 7 And then you're also gonna get olive tompanade.

Speaker 7 You are gonna get dried Asian pears. That's gonna go with the Stilton cheese beautifully.
And then

Speaker 7 a sea salt crustini. Oh, you're going to get Mike's hot honey

Speaker 7 and also a bottle of

Speaker 7 truffle oil. There's truffle cheese, you know, but I didn't want to put anything just in case you didn't want truffle, you didn't like truffle.

Speaker 7 So, you get a beautiful bottle of truffle oil so you can put on whatever you want.

Speaker 7 And for dessert, you're going to get a De Bruno Brothers Toffee and Pretzel milk chocolate bar.

Speaker 7 These are so great for

Speaker 7 any occasion.

Speaker 7 You don't have to do your charcuterie board. Let me do your

Speaker 7 charcuterie board for you. And you can get this at the BrunoBrothers.com.

Speaker 7 Let me see, the second week in August. So, yes, I'm very proud of my charcuterie board.
