Body, Body, ooh, ooh.
You know what I mean?
Because she was dating Bori at the time.
Maybe too sexual, but
dating that.
Yes, right in our way of doing that.
Married 45 years.
Favorite already.
The first time you ever even paid attention to me is I was wearing a Montclair ticket.
I was wearing a.
I was.
I wasn't.
So let me ask you about the wrong missing.
Oh, Lord.
Okay.
Did I, that day,
uh-oh.
Okay.
That day,
did I do a bad job?
That's a great question.
Okay, so to start the show, Dana, I'm going to bore the shit out of you with a story about gambling, about fantasy football.
about DraftKings, which is not an ad.
I can be critical.
I can be real.
Okay.
Is it okay to say, I'm all ears?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm all ears.
You're all ears.
And you know, plants can hear things.
So I think your plant is going to like this one.
Don't make fun of.
I'm not.
I'm saying plants are.
Gertrude is very sensitive.
Gertrude has a mind of her own.
Yeah.
I don't appreciate.
No, I know.
No one's going out.
Stuff about Gertrude.
Sorry, go ahead.
So you get on this thing.
It's 4th of July.
It's a little early to do fantasy football.
Boring, boring, boring.
But they have a best ball thing, even more boring, where you just, you do a draft online.
Right.
Now, the only thing you need to know is you pick a full team.
It goes randomly, 12 people.
And then you have a team and you play it over the year or over the season.
Fine.
Fine.
Boring?
Yes.
Interesting?
No.
I'm not going to judge it yet.
Yeah, not yet.
So I say, oh, best ball, I'm going to try this one where you pick, and, you know, you join, it's 12 random people.
So it's so early that it goes, it doesn't start right away.
It goes, oh, you have three people out of 12.
So you're in the waiting room.
And I'm like, well, when does it stop?
So I check later
and it's four out of 12.
So I check later and it's the third round of the draft.
I'm like, oh, no.
Okay.
I missed it.
So
you can put it on the speed of 30 seconds in between,
which is kind of normal.
It moves quickly.
You got to pick.
No dilly-dally.
Or they go the slow one, which takes eight hours.
And I said, I'll take an eight-hour day because I missed two of these drafts.
I got in late.
So I said, okay, I'm going to do one more, but I want to be there at the beginning.
So if it goes slow, it takes 10 minutes.
I can figure it out.
Because I don't get notified.
I'm following.
I'm following.
You're sort of following.
I mean, I haven't done this, but I get the gist.
Go ahead.
So I sign up.
Not the fast one.
I go to the slow one.
It doesn't even start.
It's going to wait till the next morning.
They don't, they have like 11 out of 12.
I'm like, oh, so it shuts off for the night.
It wakes up.
It says, you're drafting your first person in the first round.
I'm like, I got it.
It's my turn.
I got it.
I turn it on on my turn.
Okay.
Great.
Perfect.
Draft my crafty fucking draft.
Who am I going to get?
Who?
It's so crazy.
What's he going to do?
He zigs when you think he's going to zag.
So I pick a guy.
I I look later.
It says
seven more minutes.
I'm like, I got to wait for this next guy to pick.
This is a slow one, you know.
Anyway, I go to breakfast.
I look, it says
seven minutes.
I go, is this broken?
No, Dana.
What I wasn't realizing is it's seven hours.
When it said eight-hour draft, it meant eight hours in between
every effing pick.
Wow.
So I was, I pick first and then I go 22 later because it goes backwards and snakes it.
Anyway, my next pick could be at the beginning of the season because that's so much time.
That's so much time.
So that was two days ago.
We're right now in the ninth pick.
Okay.
So
when you want you from me, are you what do you want from me?
Are you losing money or gonna give me?
No, you're just here to be like baffled and shocked.
I have a gambling story that's that's a lot simpler to understand.
It's probably better because this one's already over and no one even knows why I told it.
I think the people who are into fantasy football will be like, holy shit, man.
Yeah, they're going to be like,
you read it wrong.
Right.
But no one can imagine it's that long.
So
for years, I'm playing the New Orleans Hotel
in Vegas.
Great showroom, 800 seats.
And I guess he doesn't mind saying the name.
He's a friend of mine, Mark Pitta.
He's my opening act, and he's really into sports.
And he's really into sports gambling.
So a lot of weekends, I would kind of play around with it.
Niners by this.
I'd do the spread, really simple things, hand it to him.
And I usually would lose or make nothing.
You know, he would obey my orders.
Here's 500 bucks.
Here's my picks.
And every single time he would do what I said.
So the last time I had my whole thing.
And I said, here's the money.
Maybe it was
$1,000.
Here's my hunches.
Just bet on those.
And I saw all of them come true.
I went, holy shit.
Holy shit.
You're going to be rich.
And then he came in.
He goes, I switched it out in the last minute.
You bet on different things.
But before that, he'd done everything perfect for me.
It's so sick making, especially if you're a gambler.
Okay,
here's another 30-second one.
I'm playing Harris and Tahoe.
I'm doing slots.
So I'm always putting in the max, you know?
And then finally, I was down to like 250 cent pieces.
I don't know what it was.
And I hit it.
And then I hit the jackpot.
And I would have won like 10,000, but I won 2,000.
And I'm in Harris up at the, and I looked up, and there was a jewelry shop.
So I took the money and just bought my wife a necklace.
Oh, that's nice.
That's like a story that's like, what a good guy you are.
Let's let's get fan letters on which gambling story was
dumber.
More accessible.
Yeah.
No, yours was going to really
get the ire of gamblers
that Pitta did not.
By the way, I don't blame Mark Pitta.
There was, you know, I mean, I don't know why he did it.
He'll, he'll hear this and text me.
He was trying to help you going, you don't know what you're doing.
I'm going to help you.
He was trying to help me.
So, and I didn't lose that much money, you know, in the big picture.
So, hi, Mark.
And that was my Mark Pitta story.
So, I don't know.
I've met Bobby Lee at the comedy store or whatever.
Super nice guy, but I don't know him like you do.
So, I don't really know what to expect with this interview.
Well, I love Bobby Lee, and he's very well liked over there.
And from the comedians, the audience, there's a couple people that really get him going,
meaning get the crowd going.
Bobby's one of them.
He's on there a lot.
I see his name on the store.
The store has really good lineups.
So, I did the comedy store a few nights before now.
We're talking to him.
So
we'll talk about that.
And then there's just a lot of interesting things.
He did a part in The Wrong Missy.
He did a part in Bus Boys.
So
we just have a lot of stupid stuff to go over.
And he's just, he's got a very fun thing about him.
And a fun podcast with Andrew.
And he's always on Instagram with some clip.
Yeah, yeah.
So anyway,
let's see.
Let's
see what happens.
Here's Bobby Lee.
Do you do vocal exercises?
What do you guys do here on this?
I've never done it before.
He does.
How many podcasts have you done?
One million?
I did two yesterday, one Sunday.
That's a lot.
Do you always get asked at the comedy store?
Everyone asks me.
I say no 90% of the time, but not for this one.
Oh, my God.
This was like number one on my list here, baby.
No, listen.
Come on.
Top 10, all right?
I feel like.
Smartless got the numbers.
What are you doing here?
You don't know this thing.
Yeah, the office girls and then Smartless and now this.
This is third.
Have you done those?
I mean, I know Jenna.
No,
I was never a part of the office.
Have you done the office?
I don't think so.
Okay.
Well, we had an office girl.
We had Jenna on.
We couldn't get two of them.
We weren't big enough.
Yeah, we didn't have enough down.
I like your Oasis-y hair.
That's pretty nice.
It's pretty cool, isn't it?
Yeah, it's pretty cool.
I'm from the 60s.
My dad gave me a crew cut
in 1965 when I wanted to have a Paul McCartney haircut.
Yeah, yeah.
And I said, I'll show you when I'm 70.
I'll look like an old beetle.
Ram, my favorite Paul McCartney album.
The very first one.
You know that one?
Oh, yeah.
I know all his Rams.
I like his solo.
I like his solo.
First, big fan of his.
Every day I go out.
Get out of here.
What about 1985?
Is that on there?
1985?
I don't know what 1985.
We can go back to the 60s.
They're called the Beatles.
Ever heard of them?
Wait, what?
You didn't even know Ringo played the drums when we interviewed McCartney.
Was Mark Cartney?
No, 1955.
McCartney was not here, but it was on a Zoom.
Oh, really?
Did you get McCartney?
Tiger Bell.
Tiger Flex.
Fuck you.
Dana, you think that I could get McCartney?
The biggest guy.
You know what?
Let me say something, right?
The biggest guy, we got the guitarist from the Pixies,
Joey Santiago.
Sure.
Can we Google it?
Yeah.
Go ahead.
And then we got Paul Banks from Interpol, the lead singer.
Okay.
But I can't go on both of that.
Swing and a miss.
I don't know.
You got Bert Kreiser with his shirt on.
Theo Vaughn, have you gotten Theo Vaughn?
Okay, well, Theo's bigger than McCartney.
Yeah, okay.
In your world.
In certain worlds.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're still trying to get Theo.
Well, we are.
We've been on Theo.
No, we're waiting for Theo for the movie to come on.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, the movie.
How's that going?
Oh, you're in the movie.
What's up?
What else can we do?
What's remembering?
That's right.
You son of a bitch.
Yeah, I was in your movie.
Did you get him?
Did he have a good show?
He was good.
No, he's good.
It's such a good vibe when you come on.
I know you think I'm going to make fun of you.
I'm not going to be a good one.
Everyone loves you.
I think you're the most popular Canadian.
You're very
popular.
I know you can't handle these compliments.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, compliments are horrible.
I go into my ancestry when I get compliments.
Give you another compliment.
You're so cute.
People really like me.
I just do that.
You crushed at a comedy store.
You've seen it?
I thought I was getting another.
Oh, that.
Okay, good.
But you know what?
I haven't had the kind of career.
I've always wanted to have a career like you two.
I just, I missed the Hollywood bubble.
I had to, I had to get my fan base through the internet.
Well, was it eight years on Mad TV?
Mad TV, though.
Well, admit it.
When you were on SNL and you guys looked down on Mad TV.
Yeah, but whoops.
I didn't say that.
Why would anyone say that?
No, no, no.
No, be honest.
When you looked at Mad TV as like, you know, your pitch.
No, I saw a chart that said seven years on Mad TV is like six months on SNL.
And I think it sort of checked.
No, I can't see.
Hi.
No, you did a good job on Mad TV.
Yeah.
I remember all your sketches.
They were very funny.
The sketches that Bobby Lee did on Mad TV.
He played an agent character.
He played 1,000 agent characters.
He was the best at it.
When you played Connie Chung, can you do a little bit of that?
Can I just say something?
Is that your signature?
this is what happened.
Okay.
I called my, I didn't have an agent and I called my manager.
You had an agent.
Yeah, I called my dad.
My agent.
And he too worked at Gersh, but it was great.
But no, my, no, so.
Bobby.
What?
Does he go, Bobby?
I saw your acting.
It's fucking hilarious.
That's good.
Okay, yeah.
Anyway,
so I called my manager and I go, how come I can't get an agent?
He's like, you're an agent.
Yeah, it's hard.
You know, this is the late 90s.
So then I go,
well, can I get an audition?
And she,
am I boring you guys right now?
No, for In Lemon Color.
No, we're trying to do that TV, dude.
We're trying not to talk over.
We get a lot of criticism.
I'm going, shut the fuck up and listen.
Let me just finish my point here.
I want to hear it.
So then I go, can I
get an audition?
And she goes, well, I do represent a lady by the name of Lauren Dombrowski.
Oh.
Never heard of her?
No.
Okay.
Trying to help your story.
Billy Dombrowski, who is a shortstop fan
in the room.
None other than Bill Squankmeyer.
Yeah.
And I was like, let's go to the tape.
Yeah.
Let's look at a clip.
Anyway, and she goes, and she produces Mad.
Okay.
So on a Saturday.
Mad, we call it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so on a Saturday, they said that you could do a practice audition with the casting director, but you're not going to get the show.
So I went on a Saturday, and I'm in my mind the night, because they wanted three impressions.
And I'm not an impressionist.
Right.
So what can I do?
I can do my dad.
So that's Kim Jong-il.
That's funny.
Hello, I'm Kim Jong-il.
No one knows if that's right or wrong.
So that's what I did.
Well, that's genius.
Always say the name of the guy you're doing.
It's 90% of it.
It's 90% of it.
That is a funny voice.
Yeah, thank you so much.
Yeah.
Welcome to my show.
You know, I did that.
Yeah.
And they were like, yay, right.
So I just went.
Wait, you did him with a talk show?
I think I wrote it in a talk show
environment.
And then the second audition was Connie Chung.
And
Connie Chung
And they're like, Yeah, that
up 90% is saying that name Mori Mori.
Oh, oh, you know what I mean?
Because she was dating Mori at the time, maybe too sexual, but um dating that's right in our way of like married 45 years favor already, except that, please.
So then I go, I just did, Good evening.
I'm Connie Chung.
That's not bad.
Yeah, and I did sort of like a newscastery kind of thing.
Yeah.
And the third one was
Chaoyun Fat.
Chow Young.
Chow Young Fat.
Who's that again?
You know Chow Young Fat?
Chow Young Fat?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not a channel.
It's not a name, though.
No, it's like a Jackie Chan type character.
When you say Jackie Chan, you put your arms like that.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know what we're doing.
He's doing karate.
I know you want to do a hiatus,
but that's fucked up.
Oh, like a Jackie Chan.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I didn't even know it.
He goes, Bobby.
And then he goes, no, I never thought that.
This isn't racist.
I'm an impressionist.
The more you do a Chinese accent, I'm going to slip into it.
Oh, okay.
Oh, is that what it is?
He's trying to keep losing it.
He's trying to keep dating
at the end of the show.
He likes it so much.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love Bruce Lee.
Chao Young Fat.
So Chao Young Fat is a director.
No, no.
He was in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Chao Young Fat was an actor.
he's a lead okay right so what i i saw him on an e you remember me back in the e
channel an interview with him and you know how sometimes chinese people overpronounce their english
so he did already yeah
hello my name is chaoyon fat you're right and so i did that
and he did a lot of Every time he would say a line in this interview, he would do a different bodily position.
So he would go, hello, my name is Chao Yunfat.
And he would move his body.
So I explained that in the audition, right?
So every line I would do a different position.
But
by the end of my little thing, I was in the corner of the room backwards on my hands as John Young Fat because I thought that would be a funny pass.
It's hysterical.
It is.
And it kind of worked, and they kept calling me back, and that's how I got it.
You know what's funny?
Tricky impressions like that.
Like you're not, I wasn't an impressionist when I got on.
And so I didn't even have to audition fake, you know, just make one up.
But to have to do them, and you come up with those three that are just funny in weird ways, you know,
smart.
It is smart though.
Yeah, you know the Asian thing.
He wants to say, I want to tell you a story
related to what you just did.
First of all, accuracy means nothing.
Third of all, everything.
Or did I say second of all?
All of those were funny.
So Steve Corral comes in, auditions for the Dana Carvey show.
Whoops, metaphorical.
You got an ashtray?
Anyway, it made seven episodes.
But he goes, well, I don't really do impression.
So he was doing it in New York in the room with me and Lucy Kay, Robert Smigl.
Didn't kill.
And then we go to L.A.
and audition people again.
So he comes out and
he does the Pope.
Yeah, yeah.
Just that was like, I didn't need an accuracy.
Yeah, that was fucking funny.
So I'm not surprised you got hired.
I think the point is to make everyone in the room be yourself and make everyone laugh.
I mean, that's the point of it.
What did you do with the nerves of it?
Did you just not have nerves?
Well, I had so at the time I was working, living with eight people in a two-bedroom apartment in Silver Lake.
Is that we were like sardines, what?
At carney people?
Is that kind of stereotypical?
Go ahead.
Eight people?
I don't know what that is.
Go down this line of thinking.
I just started.
No, no.
I like this line of thinking.
Hina, please.
So, you know what I mean?
We were in a ship.
Is that what you're saying?
Right?
Asian Amostali kind of situation.
Is that what you're saying?
Yes.
No, no, no.
So, We-Man, you know, from Jackass, the Little Dwarf.
This is out of casting.
So, We-Man's there.
There's eight people in this house.
Where they were Sophie, who was, she was a meth addict.
Okay.
We had a homeless guy.
I'm not kidding you.
We had an actor named Callisto, never made it.
And then we had my brother Steve lived in my closet.
He made it like a little bamboo.
We call those people gay now.
Yeah.
So I was living with all these people in this, in, in the Silver Lake, Sanborn, on Street Sanborn, Silver Lake.
And I had to get out.
When you have no money,
right?
I had no car.
And in my mind, I'm like, when you go into an audition, especially when you're desperate, you do everything you can.
I think that's what was my situation.
I think they also underplayed it.
They said, this is a practice audition.
And then you go to the real one.
And you're like, so this isn't as much pressure.
So, yeah, so this is what happened.
So the first time I went, and thank you for dating.
That's a good trick.
I mean, that's a good trick for you to relax.
No, at first, they were like, we want Taryn Killam.
Sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Very well.
Terran was on the podcast.
Back then, he was in high school.
He was dating Amanda Bynes back then.
You know, she's been a little
great actress.
We understood that.
Yeah, yeah.
I know she did.
Went a little.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And the funny actress, though.
That's what you always say.
Oh, really?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Is that guy gay?
It's a thing, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you do that?
Or I do a wink, maybe.
What do you do?
Yeah.
Is that guy
better?
Or
I think I'm going to go hoohoo with the front.
Yeah.
I can't whistle.
So I'll go, woo-hoo.
Now listen, I'm fine with that.
I had a guy talk to me in a bar, and I didn't know he's gay because he had a, he, he would always wink like it was a Twitch.
So I go, you married?
He goes, yeah.
I go, but you like women?
He goes, of course.
And I go, oh, wow.
It looks like she's flirting with you.
You don't want to get naked with him.
He goes, of course I don't.
I go, that one was too big.
That wasn't a twitch.
That was a little too big.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And if I was a director, I would say, Cod, and I would say, maybe do it again.
I said, that's all I got.
Okay, okay.
Well, let's move on.

I went on a Saturday.
And the thing was, Nicole Garcia captured me and goes, you're not going to get it because I think they really want Taryn.
They're going to see everybody.
But let's just practice.
And at the end of it, she goes, you know what?
Come back next Saturday.
So I came back the next Saturday, no pressure.
But the pressure started is when then I started going during the week.
Callbacks.
And then people were there.
Oh, sickening.
But then at that point, I had already done it a couple of times.
She had to give give me notes.
And then it gets to a point where it's just between you and it was just between me and Taryn.
So we're at Fox.
You know what I mean?
It's not like
that.
I'm a little confused with the numbers.
But Bobby, what?
Because Taryn was on SNL.
No, not yet.
Before.
Dana.
Oh, that's what I mean.
So it's 90 what?
Sorry, Bobby.
I'm a numbers guy.
90 what?
Wait.
It was probably 2000.
2000.
Yes.
He wasn't on yet.
Got it.
So he went there first.
You said he was in the middle.
Let me ask you something.
I'm sorry, David.
All right.
Well, why would I lie about it?
That was why I was so curious.
Miami comes out of the world.
Why is it Bobby making
a whole idea?
I could have said Gerard Butler.
This is the first I found out that Taryn Killiam is that weird senior in high school, folks.
I mean, he's just out of diapers right there, and he's almost on television.
But Bobby Lee beat him out at the final thing.
So you're old enough to know Carson.
That's rare these days.
Huge fan.
But listen to this.
Flip Wilson, I know, too.
Okay, let's move on.
But great talent.
The devil.
Sugar.
Come on now, Sugar.
The devil made me do it.
I'm going to take you down.
Don't you discipline your mom.
Don't you discipline.
I never met him.
He's doing love.
Yeah.
You know what?
I love your part in fucking.
It's so funny.
Why are you laughing?
I had a part in something.
Yeah.
Yeah, you were in
the redoing it.
Remaking it.
Let me get it.
okay yeah um about the band um
not spinal tap spinal tap oh spinal tap you were spinal tap that was the map
incredible with uh let's move on really crystal okay
thank you is he not in it he was no line i was no line and yet i went that's dana carvey yep how did you know because i was in white face
even
excuse me can we cut tape not cool can we cut tape not cool yeah can we just cut tape
Bobby, I'm going to go back to the story everyone kind of faded out on.
When you were auditioning for whatever show, and one of the scary things when I did like pilots and stuff like that is when you get to the final audition, you go in a room and you sign how much you will make on your contract.
You sign everything.
Yeah.
So you can't get the part and then try to jack them for more.
Right, right.
So you still need it.
So they've got you by the ball.
You sign it.
That's a sweaty, sickening thing because then you go, if you come out of that room and you got it, you get this money, you got a deal.
If not, they rip it up.
It's so horrifying.
It's horrifying, especially when you're young and you have nothing.
You have to go.
You have to accept what they do.
You might get 10 grand, 30 grand.
So there was this cruel.
This is a real story.
I can't say her name.
Maybe I will.
Ann Margaret.
Maybe I will.
What?
She's Scandinavian?
Good night.
That's all I got.
Maybe I'm ready.
No, no, no.
Okay.
So I remember, so we're about to test.
There was another woman who I knew from the comedy store.
She goes, I ain't.
And based on her,
this is the way she talked.
I'm not trying to get canceled here.
She goes, I ain't signed that in a fucking month.
Oh, really?
She was white.
What?
Yes.
She was white.
She was
Mississippi.
No, no, no.
She's from Tully.
No, she's from Madison, Wisconsin.
She's like, hey, motherfucker.
No, white children.
She goes, yo,
I ain't signing that.
So, what the deal was, was every episode you would get $3,500.
That's good.
That's higher than we got.
Okay.
On a TV show.
To me, it's everything.
I go, I'll sign it.
Of course.
I'll do it for half or whatever.
She goes, I need 10 grand.
That's what she said to me.
I go, well, I know, but no one knows who you are.
For what, Junkie?
God damn it.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She was a Procassette.
Okay.
Oh.
So, yeah.
So
she, I don't know, but she goes, I ain't doing it.
I ain't testing.
So they tested me and Terran.
So cut to 15 years later, I'm at a restaurant.
Okay.
And I'm sitting there.
She's my waitress.
And her opening line was, I should have taken it.
And she was all calmed down.
Yeah, she's not doing, what's up?
You know what I mean?
Welcome to.
No, she was more like, well, she goes, yo,
I should have taken it.
And you go, fuck.
And I go.
And so what's a special thing?
That's making me sad because that is the story of Hollywood.
More people, you know, even if you have a career, you have a lot of regrets, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
I remember Brad Pitt and Troy.
I turned it down.
Really?
Or was ripped?
Yeah.
Brad Pitt came in with his fancy hair.
Yeah, yeah.
Have you, I mean, have you, I mean, I don't know this, but have you guys read?
You obviously don't read anymore, but back in the day, did you read for things that you really wanted and not gotten?
For sure.
I tested for Amadeus.
Oh, no, you would have been great for that.
Yeah, yeah.
This is better.
Yeah.
I didn't know.
I could barely talk.
I auditioned for Moriarty.
So Abrams got it.
We would have been together.
What's Moriarty?
Yeah, yeah.
What did you audition for you didn't get?
He was a movie star star at 21.
Not Mario Aradie.
I didn't audition for Mari Rarity.
What was that?
Somebody in Amadeus?
Yeah, Namadeus.
He played as an emphasis, the old man that was like better of that.
I didn't see it.
I read from Risky Business.
You did?
Yeah.
Not Tom Cruise's part.
Yeah.
Booger?
Yeah.
Tom Cruise's part.
Yeah.
Really?
I was 26.
I was reading for 18 in those days.
Wow.
This is before life beat me up.
Except you said, keep the camera back.
Here you go.
When I hear that music, I think I'd walk out my underpants.
I wouldn't slide.
Yeah.
And then they go, Tom slid, and that sort of fun shit.
You did.
I saw your audition tape, and you clearly had a full load in your underpants when you shot that.
Most of my auditions, I did.
I shot my underpants, and then I go.
Yeah, I go.
I can put pants on if you want.
Your wiener was not doing anything, but you had a load in the back.
And I go, that guy's pretty good.
He should get the part.
Bobby loves it.
Yes, David.
I have some real questions.
What the?
Sorry about this.
I like notes about it.
This is a real show.
I don't like notes.
I'm just curious.
This was the first time you felt rich.
Oh, is that a real question?
Yeah, like
in podcasting.
Okay, so
did you ever get rich in regular television?
You got rich during podcasting.
Now, rich can be whatever you feel.
Oh, like that.
Youngie to define what rich is.
So you feel it, feel rich.
I've always felt like I was drowning.
What's wrong, David?
I was just looking at your $12 wardrobe.
I'm going, I don't know if you're feeling rich right now, but I understand what you're saying.
I understand this.
I was like, that's a great shirt.
Is there a Goodwill nearby?
Because Because I want to get one.
Like, you know what?
Dave did to me once.
And I've told this story before.
And I don't know if it's real, but in my mind, it's real.
Right?
Okay.
But I feel like the first time you ever talked to me
was, what?
I hate it.
You're going to hate the story.
Okay.
You're going to hate the story.
And I've told it before.
You know, I don't think you've heard it.
I've never heard it.
All right.
All right.
But the first time you ever even paid attention to me,
I was wearing a Montclair jacket.
I was wearing a jacket.
I was wearing a
scrap me.
I was wearing a Montclair jacket.
It's the kind of jacket I think I have.
Yeah, that jacket that he has.
Oh, it's a richie rich jacket.
It's a rich jacket.
He took his finger, right?
At the comic store.
And you know how they had the Montclair symbol?
You took your finger, you wrapped your finger
around
the symbol, and you go, someone's doing well.
Someone's doing well.
Someone's doing well.
Someone's doing well, right?
Someone's doing well.
And then from then on, you talked to me every fucking day.
And then I was like, Bobby!
in the club.
No, what's doing well?
I know.
And then I stuck my finger in your ass and I go, don't tell anyone this part.
Anyway, no, Bobby and I.
Good to see you.
Bobby.
When did you start feeling?
Oh, it doesn't matter.
This is entertaining.
I know it's a good question.
I want to tell you.
I'm always curious that anyone...
transitioning
from poverty to kind of like having a lot of extra money.
When you told me you're transitioning, I didn't know you meant from poverty.
No, that's why I did from poverty.
Okay, good.
So
I always felt like I was drowning because I don't know if you guys were ever here where you would do weekends as a stand-up.
Yeah.
And they would, the club would go, listen, you know, we had a comp.
You know what I mean?
Right.
In those days, even though you would make some money,
you always felt like you were drowning.
I think up until maybe seven years ago is when I felt like, or eight years ago, when I felt like when podcasting started is when I felt like, okay, well, I think I'm fine.
You had enough money, and you're going to be doing this forever.
Yeah, that's that's a time when you go, I think I'm okay just doing this.
Because I kept going, should I go back on bus?
Wait, what could I even do?
And then it takes a while to feel like, okay, I got enough here, I got enough of a base.
In the beginning, I had no overhead.
It was just did you ever call out a owner, a club owner on the split?
Did you?
I know what the split means.
Explain split.
Well, I was supposed to get 35% of the door at this hippie dive.
The club, very famous, actually.
The other cafe.
Pounds someone played there.
And it was packed, two shows.
And I just was driving away my Volkswagen, but I'm going to add some cash.
And I was like, I don't think so.
So I went back.
I go, guys.
Really?
I mean, this doesn't seem right.
And they immediately like butch casting Sundays Kid.
It was like, we did it.
We're sorry.
I don't know.
They broke down.
Oh, really?
It's not us.
It's not us.
I don't know.
This is fucked up.
You got rat fucked.
No, No, I got my money.
No, I'm saying they rat fucked you and they got it.
Well, they were not giving me 35% of the money.
Was it before SNL?
Yo, way before.
Yo, way before.
Yeah.
Bananas in New Jersey.
This is the sad.
Sounds like a pretty sad.
I want to hear those.
What?
No, that's where everyone goes.
I had some shenanigans and bananas.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
So they gave me an offer, like a guarantee.
Yeah.
And I just didn't do well.
They thought I would do way better than I did.
I know, tough shit.
Yeah, I Old couple came up to me at the very end.
And they were handing me this check shaky.
So they went,
like this, right?
And they go, young man,
I just,
for your information,
if we give you this check, our business closes.
And I go,
excuse me?
Wow.
Yeah.
It's over.
And I go, and I looked at it.
So it was $10,000.
Fuck yeah.
And I go,
how much do what I need to give give you back for your business?
And they go, five.
So
I had them rewrite it for five.
Very nice of you.
And then
the next
one, Carrot Talk.
I just figured they did it to every headline.
Oh, baby.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Carrot Talk was at really five.
No.
Next time the alley with just like this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it was the first time.
And also,
it felt real.
It felt like they had tears in their eyes.
They felt like really like, you know, just down and out.
I just couldn't do it.
You know what I mean?
My God damn it.
I did cartoons in Utah for $600 for a week.
And the lady goes, you got to stay on my couch.
We don't have some highfalutin hotel.
I'm like, so I did it because I was newer and I did it.
And then at the end, she goes, can I send it to you?
And I was like.
Well,
I kind of need it.
Obviously, I've been eating out of your fucking mousetrap all week.
And so I go, yeah.
And she never fucking sent it.
Wow.
Of course.
So I said she molested me.
She did, but I didn't.
I played a club where they didn't pay you at the end.
You would get it like
a series of clubs up in Canada and Seattle, and you get paid like a month later because you would take all of them.
I like that.
I don't want to wait one week.
We can't pay for it.
The improvs are good about it.
I used to do San Diego a lot, Irvine.
Improvs.
End of the week.
Sometimes give you a little bumper bonus.
But I wasn't the draw.
It was like, I was just on a show that filled up.
I was middle.
When I got on SNL, I was a middle.
Like Dana was a high-flutin' headliner.
So
when you go on, we can switch topics.
Oh, you said to switch to that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, Dana, as soon as you hit SNL,
that's it.
Poverty no more, right?
Started out $4,500 an episode for the first season.
So that.
But then that summer, summer, all of a sudden, I was getting $25,000 to play at college.
Jesus.
It's okay to bring up numbers.
In one year?
In one season?
One season.
Well, the bitch was out heavies.
He had the church bitch.
Yeah, church bitch.
Oh, the church, but yeah, yeah.
I drove to a gig in Connecticut, and for the only time it happened was Church Lay here tonight.
Didn't say my name for the theater.
Did you have to do the fucking garb and all that?
Well, I was in it often.
Yeah, I showed up in it.
No, I didn't wear the dress.
I don't wear the dress unless they pay me a lot.
Wow.
Wow.
I haven't heard the word garb since Theo said, is that traditional garb?
Do you win bus boys?
I'm like, what are you saying?
I didn't even understand until I saw the daily.
But he always says something slightly different.
I feel like you're wearing.
How fast are you?
Are you guys editing the movie?
I'm sorry.
I've never heard of it.
No, no, no.
He's heard about it too much, but we did it.
We talked to Tim yesterday, Tim Dylan, who's got a big part in it.
And he goes, Hi, what's going on?
He goes, Is a clip going to come out?
Is a photo something that we can just say we're in a movie?
Can I just ask?
Ask whatever you're doing.
Can I just ask, how are you feeling about it?
I think it's
funny.
I think what we did was funny.
And it's just a matter of, I've never,
and no help.
Like, it's just me and Theo.
So we have him and we have another guy that put in a little bit of money, but he's one of Theo's buddies.
So we are,
once the movie's over, we both go on the road.
So now I would usually go have someone edit it and then go sit with them.
If I even had that privilege, not all movies, I do.
Not many people do.
You go and then you go, hey, do this.
And you go through the takes.
It's arduous, long, painstaking work.
Me and Theo aren't in the same spot.
And the editor's in New York.
So they did director's cut.
Then we looked at it.
Now we're trying to shape.
There's no special effect.
So Theo was on the road.
So now we got him involved.
So he's got to do his.
I do mine.
We go back and forth.
Now we're going to show it to people.
We're almost at that part.
Okay.
We heard the story.
Wake up.
Grandpa.
Well, just sorry,
I do need a nine.
I'm telling you, I'm the senior here.
I space out.
I owe it to Bobby because he's in it.
And so he drove all the way.
We were in the valley
on time.
Well, I think it was a good move when you hit, well, here's, we're going to shoot the movie here.
Now, now we're both going to go on a global tour.
It was so dumb.
It's so dumb.
Then come back.
Well, he hasn't done a movie.
And I said, we should be in the same room.
Yeah.
And he's like, well, I got to do this.
And he's got his own podcast.
So we're getting closer.
It's just slower.
meanwhile i did that jonah hill movie a year ago that's not going to be out till end of the year probably and so it was a full year already yeah but this should go faster because it's smaller that was a bigger well bobby and i'll put your name in there we're available to put some eyes on it yeah i know i want to show it
i would show it to you guys just to say what do you think does it make sense we just want to show it from a crowd of 20 people to say yeah what do you not understand what do you like what do you don't like and then listen it's not fucking can i can i can i talk to you guys about something confront
controversial, a little confrontational?
Why are your eyes like this?
I don't like it already.
It has nothing to do with you.
Okay, good.
No, go ahead.
Okay.
You're setting this up beautifully.
Okay, it has nothing to do with either one of you, but you guys are a part of it.
Adjacent.
Adjacent to it.
Okay.
All right.
I want to hear.
And so.
Don't.
Because it's a long wind up.
Go ahead.
It's a good windup.
Go ahead.
Okay, you don't like it.
No, I like it.
So let me ask you something.
May I lean forward?
Yes.
Don't break that $3 table.
Okay, I won't.
May I lean forward a little bit.
The Kmart cameras have autofocus.
Okay.
For you to lean forward, we have to have eight people jump up.
Okay.
So I just, and you weren't there.
You weren't there, Dana.
All right.
Okay.
But okay.
So let me ask you about the wrong missy.
Oh, boy.
Okay.
Did I that day?
Yes.
Uh-oh.
Okay.
That day,
did I do a bad job?
That's a great question.
No, Bobby.
Okay,
because in my mind,
ask my friend Sadie.
Hi, Sadie.
Yeah.
Sometimes
I lay in bed at night.
No, no.
No, just hear what I'm fucking saying.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm the same.
I understand.
You understand?
Regret.
Regret.
I didn't do it right.
Yeah, did I do it right or not right?
Thank you.
And you know what?
That's what I like about you.
He gets it.
Oh, I totally get it.
You're with me.
Yeah, he doesn't really care about the outcome of what it was.
So he kind of just.
I've bombed in movies before.
I don't think I bombed.
That's the thing.
Oh, you don't think that?
No, this is...
Let me...
I'll tell my side of the story.
It is warm in here.
No, the story is Dana.
I'll tell Dana because he's in a story.
He only did 800 billion.
Your movie was a big deal.
That's Smash.
That's the best thing.
Do people know you were...
Well, your part was cut out.
Is that what you're saying?
Can I tell Dana what happened?
Yeah.
All right.
So, um,
David asked me to do the wrong busy.
Was it me or was it Adam?
It was you.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
I had no idea even if he was going to fucking be there.
I didn't.
That was.
Okay.
That's a big part of it.
Also, FYI,
I'm in
You are?
Okay.
So, Julio Paul was here.
And not only that, you know, I've worked with
Adam Sandler.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's.
I don't want you to hear the story, Sadie, but
a year and a half ago, I was with a lady in Malibu, right?
You're with who?
I was with a lady in Malibu.
I was holding hands with her.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
And Sandler walks up and
he gave me a layup.
Sandler and I are like this.
He gave you that meaning.
He was very nice and very nice.
And I got some toot.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
That night, excuse me.
Yeah.
But there was some.
You know what I mean?
And this other woman that's not here today yeah yeah yeah oh i got yeah yeah you get what i'm saying i'm sweating i'm so sorry okay what i'm saying to you is this i'll tell you what happened
so he calls me can you do one line in hawaii no you didn't do that go to hawaii and do one line yeah i think
i think one line was for sure not enough for you and it was a straight line and it was just everyone's excitement to have you in the movie And we should have said, we got to give Bobby more of a Bobby thing to do that's funny where you can really get into it because that was the problem.
Go ahead.
God bless you and take care of them.
Okay.
And that's
it.
So I go there, Dana.
Okay.
Let's just go tell Dana.
I want to hear this.
All right, so Dana, I go, right?
The line is like, welcome to Alawani Hotel or whatever the fucking line is.
That's all the line is.
Mr.
and Mrs.
Tim Morris.
Mr.
and Mrs.
Tim Morris, welcome to Alawani Hotel.
You just did it better.
What?
You just did it better.
Okay.
I walk you, David.
You know what?
I'm sweating.
I know.
I'm sweating too because I'm part of the problem.
Okay, so here's the thing.
What is going on?
I'll tell you what's going on.
Okay, okay.
All right.
So I'm on set, feeling good.
It's outside.
You know what I mean?
Hawaii.
Hawaii, right?
Yeah.
Not only Hawaii, but Witowski, Lauren, everyone on the set is a friend of mine.
Right.
All right.
Action.
You know what I mean?
Hello, Mr.
Internet.
I'm not going to do the line.
Okay.
All right.
Welcome to all the right.
Then I hear stop
from
Video Village.
Yeah.
It's Sandler.
Who never comes.
Who never comes.
Yeah, he's not even, he's not.
He doesn't never come, but he was just there.
Well, what?
Okay, the finished one line, and he jumps up.
But he comes up, comes up and he goes, hey, what are you doing?
And I go, oh, hey,
Adam.
He goes, what are you doing?
Not how are you doing?
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Your hand?
He goes, yeah, it's more natural.
More natural or something.
Right.
So I go, oh, I thought, okay.
Action again.
I do it again.
Stop.
He comes back.
Right.
This can't be true.
Now me and Lauren start laughing because it's so tense and weird.
And Adam wasn't being mean.
It was just
it got tense because Bobby kept nervously missing it by a hair.
And then they go stop.
More like, they stop again.
I go, okay, on this one, just normal.
Just
hear them yelling it.
And we all start going, oh my God, because everyone's so like tired.
Also, Sandler's kids are in the scene making it work.
Oh, I'm making it work.
Yeah, making it work.
The whole family's shaming.
That's why he said you didn't want to see
it.
Yeah.
Okay.
So everyone's very nice, but Adam was just like, just say it straight.
And then it was so matter of fact.
And that's why we started laughing because we're like,
every time he said it, I'm like, is that the one?
And it was like, nope.
Then he comes out and goes, Hey,
what are you doing?
Again, he goes, just try one.
Wow, okay, check this out now, right?
So hilarious.
Hawaii outside, right?
Yeah.
It's Niagara Falls now.
All the makeup is drunk.
You know, I am having a panic attack, right?
Because in my mind, I'm like, I'm fucking, you know, Daniel Day-Lewising this thing.
What is the line again?
I just want to, I want to walk through this.
What is the fucking line?
We come in outside.
What is it?
What is the line?
Wait, hold on, hold on.
Literally.
Hold on, hold on.
Yeah, I don't even know what the line is.
Hello, Mr.
Tim and Tim Robinson.
Let me just make it up.
Yeah.
Let me just make it up.
Me and Lauren walk up.
Hello, Mr.
Tim and Tim.
What's the list?
You be Lauren.
I'll be you.
The Robinson.
Hello, Robinson.
The Robinsons.
Hi.
Welcome to Allolawali Hotel.
Yeah, here's your registration.
Perfect.
That's what I did.
Where were you?
Where were you?
Prince.
So we go in and Lauren argues with the kids first.
They go like this.
You were out there swimming with the turtles.
She goes, gay, fuck you, to Adam's kids.
That was her line.
It was hysterical.
She's screaming.
Then we aha.
We walk up and we're with
Witowski and Sarah.
And they're in robes.
And we all come up to Bobby.
And I'm telling you, in your defense, one line is harder than doing a whole scene.
Because what happens when you're doing one line?
Because all you just focus on.
Because the whole time when you're watching the scene, all you're doing is thinking about that one line.
And you're running it through your mind.
10,000 times.
Welcome to the hotel.
Welcome to the hotel.
It's Russia.
It's the Russian.
And you're tortured.
I was in
yeah, yeah, but don't you didn't you ask for a line reading?
I'm sorry, but didn't you that's so embarrassing?
You've asked for that.
Oh, I didn't.
Well, how do you want me to say it?
Just say,
just tell me how to, I think he did do it.
Oh, okay.
But at one point, I remember David going this because Adam's talking to me like this, but I see David
behind Adam, behind Adam.
And this is what you go.
You go like this.
You go.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Yeah.
I was
worried about it.
Yeah, you felt, you know, and that's what there was so much love.
Now we're friends.
Yeah, yeah.
there was so much love there.
But check, here's the good news.
Okay.
Can I hear the good news?
I want to hear the, I want some happy now.
So when I'm wrapped, right, I went to myself, I go, how high up is this hotel so I can jump off?
You know what I mean?
Or no, that was like suicide, you know what I mean?
Yeah, right.
Or maybe I'll relapse.
I was sober at the time.
You know what I mean?
So maybe, you know, seven years is really, I could relapse.
All reasonable thoughts.
Yeah, there were so many different thoughts in my mind.
Welcome to the Awani Hotel.
May I help you?
I mean, fuck, where were you?
Yeah, yeah, where were you?
You could have died.
You're drenched in sweat.
Yeah, yeah.
All the makeup's tearing down.
Yeah, yeah.
He's going, I'm so sorry.
Yeah, yeah.
That's better than anything in the movie.
That's the most dramatic function.
Right.
That is.
Here's the good news.
There's more good news.
All right.
It gets good.
Yeah.
So then I go to the hotel, the Aloha Halani Hotel.
It's just not the name because it's not, never, I never, never heard of.
Okay, whatever the fuck the name is.
Yeah, yeah.
You're just putting a bunch of.
Just yes and it, Valve.
Just yes, and it okay, all right.
He's being so extra.
What is wrong with you, bro?
No, I love being so extra.
I love you so much.
Right.
So, I feel for him.
Go ahead.
So, now, here's the good news, Dana.
Okay.
I'm at
there's a wonton bar.
All it was wantons?
Is that all you eat?
He has an app for it.
So, you go to a wonton's body.
He's a dramatic pause.
Sorry, Blondie.
Okay.
Skinny.
And there's like coffee drums.
It's okay.
Take it easy, skinny buddy.
Oh, damn it.
You want to take a break?
Out of nowhere?
No, I'm fine.
Out of nowhere.
Anyway, thank you so much.
So I'm at this wonton bar.
Can I have some wontons, please?
Right.
They gave me a bowl of wontons, right?
And I don't even want to eat them.
Like, I'm just so sad.
So there's another Korean guy next to me.
What?
Hello?
I thought that's what he said to you.
That's what he goes, ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, because he's eating one ton soup.
No, so no.
He was in the scene previous to you.
He had one line.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, go ahead.
And so he goes, hey.
I go, hey.
And he was sitting next to a guy I was familiar with.
His name is Zach Knighton.
He's an actor.
And back when I was on Mad TV, what are you doing here?
I think is this not the night we went to dinner at Nobu?
No, it wasn't.
Okay.
Okay.
We've been to many Nobu's, though.
In Hawaii.
Yes.
And you remember we went to dinner?
Yes.
And someone came and talked to us.
Yes.
Okay.
It's not that.
Okay.
Okay.
So anyway,
so Zach Knighton's sitting.
So this Asian guy looks just like me, too.
Big-headed Koreans.
And we're the best kind.
Yep.
Yeah.
I'm not going to coach out.
I'm going to argue this, though.
Because you have the Stephen Yoon Koreans.
You know what I mean?
Like, leading man.
But then you get the big headed, and we're the coal miners of the business.
Coal miner?
That's funny.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, even in Korea, I think I would have been a coal miner.
Is this part of your standard?
That's not how I like standards.
It should be.
No, well, it's not.
Anyway, so he was a big-headed Korean.
Okay.
And he goes, hey, my name is Gene.
I go, I met you, which I didn't remember.
He goes, I met you at Earth Bar, and you were talking about my genes.
I'm really big into raw denim.
Let's move on.
And I go, oh, and he goes, I'm I'm the executive producer of Magnum P.I.
That's what he says to me.
So I go, oh, and he goes, let me write you a part.
Right.
So I go, but there's no more than one line.
Yeah.
He goes, he wrote me over the next three or four years.
Oh, that's right.
I did 15 episodes of the thing.
He wrote me,
like, I was number one on the call sheet, like storylines.
It was the, he's my best friend now, Gene.
Right.
We hang out.
You know, you've met Gene.
We've gone to Hawaii together.
I mean, he is one one of my best friends.
I would have never met him if I hadn't done the wrong mistake with that nightmare that you put me through.
And,
you know, and so, you know, the moral of the story is this.
Yes.
Sometimes when you say yes, right,
great things can happen.
Yeah.
Sometimes no means yes.
Yeah.
Is that it?
No, that
I don't think that's what.
Sometimes you lose for winning.
Yeah.
And sometimes you win for losing, but sometimes you lose for winning.
Sometimes, you know, you don't know why you're somewhere.
Something's happened for a reason.
There we go.
It's all in God's hands.
Yeah.
I think that's better.
Yeah, yeah.
It's all in God's hands.
Not as close.
You're pretty close.
Something's happening.
But that experience, you know what I mean?
And
just want to reiterate that, you know what I mean.
Adam and his whole family has been very gracious to me.
Yeah.
And I love them very much.
And I am in happy
Madison one or two.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I know Sandler, he was, he, he would have been very gentle about, almost whispery about that.
He was very gentle about it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If he just pictures it in his head a certain way.
And there's I get it.
And when I did, when I did my wig for grown-ups, I walked in so excited, long wig, and everyone was thinking it's so funny the way that we got there.
It's coffee, same thing.
And he goes,
Is this a wig you want?
And I go, yeah.
And he goes, I don't like it.
And everyone's like, what?
I go, isn't this funny?
Because I have a guy like this long hair.
He thinks
from the 80s.
And he goes, no, no, I shorten it.
And I go back and cut it and cut it.
And we kept doing it until it was basically where it was.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He goes, you're supposed to be a good-looking guy.
I don't want that long.
I was like, okay.
So, but in his head, he pictures it, and it's his movie.
And that's the fun thing.
I mean, that's the good about at least you need someone calling the shot.
And he's casual as a person when he's the executive producer.
He'll be laying on a couch, have a leg of turkey, and people come in.
Oh, I don't think so.
He is a good decision.
He's very decisive.
He's very casual, but decisive.
I'm not decisive.
So I would, I actually thought you were doing fine.
Yeah, I mean, he's the nice.
I just wanted to share that story with you.
And I've never confronted you about, did you think the actual performance
was bad?
And what you were saying to me, what I got was, it could have been better.
No, I got that it was a little nerve-wracking to hit you with all of us do a whole scene and we come up and you just have to say one line and get us out of it, yeah.
And we'd get all the way to that part and it would stop again.
It was another good point: is that when you guys were all jumping around having fun, and you know, you know, that I'm a goofy guy, yeah, right?
I'm silly, Billy, baby, sure, you know what I mean?
You had to play straight, man.
Yeah, and whenever I have to play something straight, it's stressful, it feels like I'm being, you know what I mean?
You're tied down.
What I'm sorry, what point in the movie did that was that about?
Was it 30 or 40 minutes in?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I think I only, oh, never mind.
Oh, you switched it off at 15.
No, I'm just, forget what I just said.
There was a certain point, I just.
Do you watch
each other's stuff or no?
I think so.
I've seen most pretty much.
I saw Joe Dirt.
I saw Grown-Ups.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Grown-ups too didn't quite do it for me.
But
I think I've seen most of your stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I've seen, I was there for five years overlapping with him on SNL.
So I saw him.
Yeah, we worked for five years.
I saw him kill from like 10 people up.
All right, Dana, you know, I'm always dragging around and
I always got a five-hour energy on me.
I know that.
Yeah, they're either in my sock, in the car, they're somewhere.
You keep them everywhere.
I give them a little slurp.
I don't really shoot the whole thing like some people do on an empty stomach.
I think I eat a little bit, a couple sips, just like coffee.
Just keep, just keep something going every day.
I don't.
I'm actually,
I don't want that much energy at once.
It's five hours, so I kind of, you know, that's what most people do.
But I sip it overall.
There's a lot of different flavors.
Yeah, there's one called Confetti Craze that tastes like a good birthday cake, which they're all pretty good.
But this tastes like a hot and buttery flavor here to let you be unapologetically extra and unstoppably energized, actually.
Big birthday energy, wherever you go.
The shots are reasonable.
You don't have to chug a full bottle or anything.
You just run around with that big birthday energy.
Yeah.
And
you can plan your confetti party at www.5hourenergy.com or Amazon.
That's available now.
You know what I mean?
So
you can get on 5Hour Energy.
That's the number 5, our Energy.com or Amazon.
At least your big birthday party energy.
As much caffeine as 12 ounces of your fancy coffee, but zero sugar and zero sugar crash.
So yeah, and I'm not like a coffee guy, so this is kind of better for me.
You're a five-hour energy confetti craze guy.
Five-hour energy confetti craze flavor is available online.
Head to www.5houenergy.com or Amazon to order yours today.
Listen.
You know, you're always talking about Quincy, the old show you watch, but there's also Quince.
I love the reference.
You're always talking about
the
grouchy mortician or whatever Quincy was.
Well, you always, when you hear it, you always think it's Quint and you think of the guy in John.
John Jaws, that's right.
Yeah.
But that is not what we're here to talk about.
I want to talk about Quince with a C at the end.
Why drop a fortune on basics when you don't have to?
Quince is high quality, great stuff.
Clothing.
Oh, yeah.
Quince has good stuff, high-quality fabrics, classic fits, lightweight layers for warm weather, all at prices that make sense.
Everything I've ordered from Quince has been nothing but solid.
Quince has closet staples you want to reach for over and over, like cozy cashmere and cotton sweaters from Get This David, just $50.
Breathable, flow-knit polos and comfortable lightweight pants that somehow work for both weekend hangs and dressed up diners.
Yep.
Weekend hangs and dressed up dinners.
That's right.
The best part, everything with Quince is half the cost of similar brands.
I mean, look at that.
50 bucks, you're getting a cashmere.
That's very rare.
Yes.
By working directly with top artisans and cutting out the middleman, Quince gives you luxury pieces without the markup.
And Quince only works with factories that use safe, ethical, and responsible manufacturing practices and premium fabrics and finishes, David.
Yeah, I like the cashmere.
I like some stuff just for around the house for right now.
It's great.
You know what I mean?
Because you forget that you need those basics and this is the place for them.
You know, throw it in your cart.
You can do stuff for your home too.
They have bedding, they have towels, they have cookware, they have luggage, they have bags.
Listen, keep it classic and cool with long-lasting staples from Quince.

did you guys get along instantly or was there competitiveness
no the sad part was no one was competitive with me because i wasn't competing with them really so they were like nice to me and i'm like i should have been offended because i wasn't a threat to anyone that's rude oh yeah you know what i mean like you see a comic and you go yeah you can go before me yeah and they go i won't curse and you go do whatever you want dude i don't give a fuck all right i can follow you put it this way I used to call him the junior varsity.
And Dennis would come in, Dennis Miller, and they would bag him.
It would be, you know, you and Rock and Farley in this dressing room.
They were sharing an 8H.
And Dennis would just rip everyone.
And Spuddin.
Okay.
The Curvey thing's not working right now or whatever.
He'd go one at a time.
But the junior varsity, when you look at them, Sandler, Chris Rock, what's your name again?
Yeah.
Did very well.
But they were sort of quasi-understudies of me and Phil and John,
Nealand, in a way.
And then we meshed really well.
And I think, I've said this before, I think 90 to 93, where we had these guys, plus we still had the guys from 86 there.
Yeah.
We were very potent.
What a powerful group.
Yeah.
Because when you read, I read Life from New York, right?
And you read some of the nightmarish stories that are in it, right?
Were those elements in your class?
Probably not then, because it felt like a healthy.
No, they were all there.
There was tension and competitiveness and all that stuff.
For sure, for sure.
Yeah, I mean, but in a friendly way, Lovins and I decided to make a joke out of it, so we just teased each other the entire time.
The idea of being envious, I would say, I was in three sketches tonight, stuff like that.
And John, of course, loved it.
He leaves too many voicemails, and I don't know what to do.
He loves you.
Is he stalking you?
No, but he leaves so many voicemails.
Hello.
Hello.
And he pretends, you know, why do you have to be so Chinese?
And
he's kind of, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
No, but he loves
comedians.
He used to foul stuff behind the scenes because we try to shock him.
He's so funny.
Yeah.
So anyway, I love the man.
Yeah.
So there was teasing and stuff.
Yeah, teasing.
Phil Hartman, you couldn't compete.
There was no competition because Phil was so, such a savant that he was reading other things in the magazines about motorboats and stuff.
And then they'd call him in.
He had 10 sketches and he just hit it perfect and you go back and then he'd paint.
He was the only one pretty much relaxed at the whole place.
Well, he'd done 20 years, like 15 years at Groundlands.
He was like a superstar at Groundlands.
And he had a good life.
He didn't really even care if he got on SNL.
He came in as a writer.
And he worked with Pee Wee Herman on
Yeah, he co-wrote that book.
Oh, yeah, Paul Yaya.
Paging Mr.
Herman.
That's how you did your part.
Paging Mr.
Herman.
Did you see that part of the movie?
Do you know who Pee Wee Herman is?
Yeah, Paul Ruins.
Okay.
All right.
I have a few questions before we got to get rid of you.
Hold on.
Okay.
How long does this go?
I mean, we don't.
We don't even, we're not like you guys.
How long do you do?
Three hours.
We're not Rogan.
How long do you do?
We do about 45, maybe an hour.
Okay.
How long is it so far?
45.
There's no way it's 45 already.
Is it?
Is that 50 minutes already?
Yeah.
Okay.
That's fun.
Seekers are having fun.
Well, I want to keep going.
Yeah.
I enjoy all the time.
Okay, I have a question for you.
I'm not going to eat for nothing.
You know what I mean?
It's easy.
I have three questions.
First of all, when we were, sometimes we're on the same show, we had a a good lineup the other night at the comedy store.
Didn't we?
Were you the honor?
Well, give it the line.
No, what was it?
Did you say, was I on it?
No, what was it?
I'm just saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You and I were, yo,
they took a photo of us.
Check your diary.
Okay.
Yeah, so.
So
today, David half-hugged me and then rubbed his fingers all over my Montclair.
So.
I saying that it was fun the other night because I see you there about once every two weeks at the comedy store.
It was Whitney, maybe Tim Dylan.
Like sometimes they have a great lineup.
it's fun to watch yeah okay that was one not question
oh you know what because
i
because when i was leaving i sat and watched you and a you had new stuff yeah you always say you don't have new stuff you have new stuff well i'm doing special so i have to get crank it out oh when is your special it's january i have so stressed out about what what platform hulu okay um
we'll get we can people some people have hulu all right listen No, you can get it.
Well, I'm just thinking, you're stressed out.
I mean, do you understand that you're Bobby Lee?
Do you get
do you understand you're famous i don't i'm not i just want to number one i'm not number one i'm not that
part of your charm
can i tell you can i lean forward again yeah
whenever you say stuff like that i i get kind of emotional and stuff all right there's two types of different kinds of fame yeah can we at least agree with that yeah everyone in the room yeah okay
i'm gonna explain it to you yeah well but i'm not agreeing yet What I'm not agreeing yet.
You're not agreeing with it.
And may I explain it to you gently?
Yes.
Okay.
Gently.
So there's two types of fame, okay?
There's Hollywood fame, right?
Where
the type you have.
And
whatever you were doing earlier.
Yeah.
Podcasting.
Yeah, yeah.
And then there's internet fame.
I think I'm in sort of in the middle there.
I think I've kind of gone back and forth.
I'm sort of.
I have TV from the past.
But me and Andrew Santino, my other podcast, Bad Friends, check it out.
Very good podcast.
Yeah.
I did Bad Friends.
I love it.
Yeah, it's good.
I did.
Yeah.
So Bad.
So me and Andrew complain a lot about because we came to LA in the, you know, I mean, early 2000s, 90s,
and we still have dreams of doing Hollywood.
And because, you know, we do internet as well, it doesn't feel like our dreams were accomplished, but they have been.
And it's done.
In fact, we're almost better off.
having our own thing and control.
Yeah.
So it's just, it's, I guess, thank you all.
I know what you're saying.
By the way, Burt Kreisner said the exact same thing on this pod.
Did he really?
Essentially the same thing.
Yeah, yeah.
And just that your age group and the romance of that.
And some people don't want to, they used to go, come here to do stand-up to get a sitcom or a movie.
And now people go, come here, do stand-up and just do stand-up the rest of your life.
Yeah.
No one's even trying to get those other things.
And it's not as much money and not as maybe what it was.
There's not as many.
So.
When you're driving down the road and you're like, you see the billboard, zippy the king.
That's
getting it up.
Yeah.
Zippy the king, right?
And some,
some open micro guy that you did back in the day is like zipping out, right?
Yeah, yeah.
And he's zipping through the sky.
You know what I mean?
And you're like, and you go, oh,
I don't want to be a zip guy.
Yeah, that's fun.
That's all.
I think this is so much better.
Also, you're doing great.
Although there was excitement being on the tonight show with the pressure.
Oh,
I did Leno.
But anyway, let's move on.
And it would be a game change.
Well, yeah, next game changer.
Bobby Lee, I've been at the comedy store.
You know, people are having a good time.
Palines, welcome.
And first time here on the tonight show.
You know what, Bobby?
We had a viewer question.
Okay.
Roughly how many pupes do you have?
Under a thousand or over?
It's interesting.
I have none now.
That's interesting.
It's interesting because I have none now.
That's true.
Okay.
Okay.
And one wee spawned the other night.
I had a meal there.
I've never eaten a meal there before.
And they had free razors back there.
And so I took all five razors, I dipped them in the little bucket, and
I went at it.
And I even did the, you know what I mean?
And I went, you know, because the mirror and I did the whole thing.
At where?
Clip this.
Clip this.
We spawn.
What's we spawn?
Well, if we're in there naked.
If we're in there naked ever, dude, don't say hi.
It's weird.
It's so fucking weird.
It's a male
wait, which brings my next question.
He leans in the audience.
He goes, what's up, brother?
He says he does a little crowd work.
And then he leaned over.
He goes, you're cute, dude.
And he kissed him on the lips when I was in the back of the room.
Okay.
I don't know if that was a question, but.
No, it was an observation.
It seems more like an interrogation.
Is there a question?
You were.
No, it's in here.
Well, I understand.
No, I was giving you a confidence that you were at the comedy store and you do well.
And I would say in my life, when I run around, people ask me the most for tickets for you or Theo.
So if they say, hey, Bobby Lee, it's going on.
I had someone call me and say, can you get me into the comedy store?
And I go, oh, I'm not there.
They go, no, I know.
Bobby's there.
Can you get me in?
I'm like, call somebody to get you in to see this fucking idiot.
No offense.
I've done it for you.
Okay, good.
That's not a put-down fucking idea.
No, it is.
So you're very charming.
So when
you guys do your show, it's good.
People really like.
I don't know why they gravitate to you, but they do.
We see.
Do you look at the charts, Bobby?
Do you ever look at the charts, the podcast?
I don't.
I don't.
Because, you know, I think that it's, I'm just going to probably do it until I can't do it anymore, right?
Why would you stop doing it?
Unless it changes.
We don't know what the hell is it.
it's pretty easy.
You get to sleep till three, yeah,
and then you just roll around and mumble on your podcast.
It's not a bad life, it's fun.
You roll down the store and do you guys, you guys enjoy doing this?
No, I hate repeating myself.
Like, stand-up, the toughest part for me is
we've managed to, you know, make a truce
to share the stage.
We get along fine.
But, um, you know, repeating yourself in stand-up is work.
But this is all being live in the moment, maybe with a few notes, is is fun because it's happening in real time that's yeah the worst things i've asked you were notes it's better it's better to just talk well i think so yeah yeah it's better to just but it's hard do you have any prep like when i came in do you have any prep no no oh yeah you weren't even there when i came well this is what i asked andrew when i went oh sorry when i went in
when i went into the podcast
yeah i wasn't supposed to tell the story you went in with those the i went to see bad friends and i go i couldn't get on the main i says i says to him i says i says all right we're doing it one day do you want to hear this i'm here and i go oh
i know you're gonna be
you i apologize there's a lot of can i say this do you want to hear this there's a lot of that today go ahead i want to hear this no i was doing bad friends and the night before
uh he says he texts me and he says hey can you not do it today do you mind doing it tomorrow we could do i go i have a flight i could do probably one to two let's say he says great.
Thank you.
That really helps me.
I get there at 12.30.
In case you were a little early today, which is very sweet.
In case they're ready, let's knock it out.
I see Andrew and he's like, this.
I go what?
And he goes, he's not here.
And I go, oh, I can wait.
And he goes, I don't know when he'll be here.
And I go, oh, I'm sure.
It's fine.
And then the other guys at work there, you're a little, you know, the interns, they go,
well, why are you so sad during this story?
I'm listening.
This is a listening face.
I've never listened that long in my life.
I always talk.
I had a fake listening face too.
You did, right?
You know what?
You have a very good fake listening face.
I know.
I know.
I watched this one.
Really good.
And I don't have a chip.
Listening to you, listen.
Yeah, yeah.
I had that.
Finish?
It's a little judgy.
No.
It's got 25 more minutes.
I'm a third way through it.
So anyway, the story was he was a little late and then he came in.
Yeah, yeah.
But it was a a fun 30 minutes late.
Yeah, I have a question.
Dana would have hit the fucking roof.
Dana does not play games.
Yeah, I'm pretty uptight most of the time.
Yeah.
So when you, I got to know you guys from clips, right?
I mean,
YouTube clips initially.
I know a clip for you.
And so I see Andrew doing the most racist thing ever of a white guy doing, like crazy over the top.
Very.
And then you do the thousand-yard stare.
Yeah.
And
it's instantly hilarious.
I don't know what that combo of him being that foul and ridiculous.
And then that face.
Do you know how funny that is?
Or did it start out seriously?
No, it's the instinct of that.
Yeah.
The stillness of it.
Staring.
You know what I mean?
It's like, you know, I think Theo and I had a thing where he said something.
I forgot what it was, but it was so ridiculous.
So you just kind of look at him for a good seven seconds to let it sit.
You know know what I mean?
Yeah.
And then he starts to backtrack.
How ridiculous that really is.
Yeah.
And you just, you don't count your mind, but it's an instinctual thing.
You know how to fucking do what kind of you're talking about.
It works.
But I've never seen something that potent where the bow is going back with Andrew and then
to the release of someone who's clearly just saying, Did I just see that?
It's like the stillness of getting a huge laugh.
I should have done that on the world message.
I was like Charlie Chap.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, Bobby, thank you.
And you are, you look great.
You, you're, you talk great.
We, uh, you look great, and you cut your hair, and you honestly look 10 years younger.
I don't know how.
You're going to take care of you.
You look great.
And anything else?
Can I plug some things?
Yeah, plug some things.
Let's go.
Plug it all.
You'll be at the comedy store what night?
No.
Well, so, I mean, eventually I'm going to do Hulu.
So if you check out my Hulu special when it comes out.
Do you have a title?
I'm going to call it Finally.
Oh, that's good.
Do you know why?
I've never done one before.
Oh.
I've never done a special before.
Yeah.
Where are you going to shoot it?
San Diego, Balboa Theater.
Did you not do it yet?
Okay.
I do it in January, I said.
Oh, you haven't done it yet.
And then.
Oh, I thought it comes out in January.
No, I'm going to do it in January.
Because I did mine.
They hold it for a while.
So mine will come out in three years.
They do take a while to come out.
Okay.
Well, it's going to come out eventually.
Well, that's Amazon Prime.
He's on Hulu.
Right, but Hulu sometimes holds them too.
What's better, Andrew Tata?
Hulu.
Tata's a slightly bigger deal.
I'll talk to you.
Amazon Prime.
Anyway,
look where you've started
infighting.
You've seen Dandelion.
What?
Oh, never mind.
My favorite movie in the world.
Is it a movie?
His special.
It's called Dandelion.
What do you think of the sound?
It's so good.
Dandelion's great.
Yeah, it was a great speech.
I saw it three times.
Is it on the end?
I'm giving you this.
Is it on
a very good listening space?
I'm giving you the stare down.
Oh, you are.
You know, I watch you so much that I don't think I need to see Dandelion.
There you go.
Thank you.
There we go.
Does either of you ever sit down for a big heap of night of stand-up specials?
Because usually, you know how the
rabbit gets out of the hat.
I'm looking forward to that.
I have one last question, but can I ask him a question?
Yeah.
How come you're never around the clubs?
Yeah, why don't you do a set over there?
Because
there's a lot of reasons.
But for me, I never really liked group shows because when comedians go on, and unless they're really good friends, like I could go on a group show with you guys, but generally after a while, it's like either staff or people walk back and say, I thought you were one of the best ones out there tonight um
or it becomes a comedy competition you know who killed last night you know and it's supposed to be fine maybe it's supposed to be like open mic and i'm going to try new material oh everyone throws that away and you know right it's hard to go bomb it's hard to bomb when some of your friends in the room but actually usually when we're back in the green room nobody really leaves to go watch somebody it's usually everyone bullshits yes they come back and you think oh no they all watch and judge and they're like they don't even know you're on or not so dina when you were on the road do you two, because do you do new jokes in front of that many people?
Yeah, where do you practice?
Yeah, where do you practice yourself?
If I do, if I go six months without doing it, if I do two or three sets, I feel pretty good.
But the first set's kind of rough after six months of not doing it.
Okay.
So you do two or three.
Yeah.
Well, I just sort of put down my sword a certain while.
I just went.
I was at one point kind of playing a different game, like doing regular stand-up.
So now I've kind of tabled that.
So I'm just going to do do Trump or Biden or Scarface, and I'll go for 10 minutes, 15 minutes.
I'm just going to ride the wave of what I really like to do
rather than try to be a stand-up.
Yeah, but
there's a clip of yours.
Exactly.
But there's a clip of yours.
I forgot what the bit was about rockets or something.
It had something to do with the space or something, but it was a joke.
I'm being real.
It was a stand-up joke that was so good.
And I thought to myself, wow, that guy's so good.
He doesn't
good.
And he doesn't do it.
Can we do a gig together?
I think he said 45 minutes or say it again.
I thought this is done now.
We are.
We're cutting all this.
This is all on the editing room floor.
Oh, it is?
No, it doesn't matter.
No, I can't even grow.
I don't feel like I'm on a podcast.
You're one of the fun ones because
I think you're hilarious.
I watch you.
I'll stop and watch your act.
We're there.
I always like talking to you.
We talk.
Sometimes we talk real in the back, which is very odd.
That's okay.
I like that.
How do you feel about that?
I like it.
Because here's, here's, I'll tell you why.
Okay.
I do this with you specifically.
Yeah.
And don't take this the wrong way.
I will.
Okay.
But there's something about you that reminds me of me.
Not that you're that much older than me.
But
a couple years ago.
I don't even know how old I am.
I know.
I know the gap, but I'm not going to say that.
Yeah, yeah.
But you are a little older than me, right?
And I just, there are times, especially on specific topics, like I want to know your advice.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's all.
But we do have normal talks, and I like it because I think everyone thinks you're more of a goofball than me.
So I think when you're on stage, you're very funny.
And when you're back there, you do goofy stuff.
And you're a good laugher.
You're a good laugher here.
You laugh at us, very sweet.
And it's always good to hang out with someone that laughs.
Some comedians are very tight with the laughs, you know?
They don't laugh at anything you say.
They just laugh at their own stuff or whatever.
So you're fun to talk to.
You're one of the ones fun to talk to.
So if we, we can just bullshit without trying and to be funny.
We just talk.
It's fun.
I think that the skill set that you have to have, no matter what kind of comedian you are, is you have to have social IQ, being able to read the room.
And so when you hang out with comedians, if you're at a party, it's really boring or some award thing and you're with regular people and then a comedian comes in.
It's always they know what the elephant in the room is.
That's the wrong thing that person wore, or this is the worst part of the show.
They should have cut this.
And so I find comedians just a very enjoyable comment.
There is serious
bond.
There is a bond that you have when you're in a regular place and then you see a comic walk in and you're like, oh, oh, you know what I mean?
It's better now.
Like a showbiz party.
You run to the comics.
Right, right.
I have a question about your, you have a podcast called Tiger Town or something, right?
Super Belly.
And on that, Tiger Town is actually a good one.
Tiger Town is pretty good.
How long do you tape those?
How long is a regular guest take?
Or is it very?
Well, it's been around for 10 years almost now.
We've done over 500 episodes.
I know.
I think I did that one a while ago, too.
Yeah, and you did during COVID.
And I do it every Monday.
What's great about Tiger Town,
Tiger Belly, is
what's great about it is I've set it up so that
I literally open my eyes,
walk down the stairs, sit down.
I don't know who the guests are during the day.
You're the worst.
Literally, like one time I sat down and then Teratop walked down.
I'm like, who Caratops?
You know what I mean?
Carrotop.
And then you do it.
You know what I mean?
And you have some backup now.
You have about six people there.
Here's that's another thing I've done is I've gotten two or three cast of characters.
Yeah.
Like you got to have the one that's kind of like,
you know what I mean?
Yeah.
And then you have the smart alley.
It's like a show.
It's a full show.
It's a show.
So you don't have to carry the weight.
You're the anchor.
But you, whatever you say works, but you can wait for your spots.
Yeah.
Now with bad friends is hard because that's where you have to be completely, because Andrew's so fast.
Right.
And he will bust your balls on any turn.
Right.
So it's like,
yeah.
You know what I mean?
And it's hard.
Sometimes he'll go, right?
And I'll go, nothing.
Right.
Right.
Nothing.
Right.
Nothing, nothing.
Right.
And then you're like, oh, I'm, and then you start, I'm drowning.
Yeah.
Sometimes I go, sometimes at the end of it, I'll go, we can't, we can't enter that one.
the whole thing, and we don't.
Oh, really?
But he's pretty good at being just people like that.
Bail on the entire
episode.
Okay, so I don't know you could do that.
Try this.
This is fun.
We have one episode we did early on where it was going so horribly.
We went, you know what?
Let's do one two-hour episode.
where we can say whatever we want.
I'm talking about,
you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Anything.
foul
racist cancel everything cancelable every line was a cancel right
it was so freeing we left so yeah of course it's the we left so hard it's in a vault somewhere i don't know who has it right but if that goes out uh-oh big trouble big trouble little china i mean yeah i mean but there is something therapeutic about it it was really freeing yeah to be able to just say whatever you wanted to say you know what i mean yeah i sounds sounds like a boss.
Yeah, yeah.
Stuff I do behind the scenes with friends.
Dane is funny.
Dane and all that stuff is
me stuff.
That is the ricketiest piece of shit table.
I'm sorry you're dealing with it.
You know what?
And I have to sit.
What a beautiful place.
This weekend?
Wait, because I went to your I've been to your other places.
Oh, yeah.
And I haven't been to this one.
You like this one?
Well, you don't probably know.
People don't know that you're shooting in your house.
Is that what it is?
No, I don't care.
No, we know.
Okay, yeah.
I thought you were joking.
No, I'm being fucking real.
Okay.
Your last place was nice, but this one.
Ooh, lock it.
I like it.
It's all right.
Well, Bobby, I will take you out.
Thank you for having me.
I'll take you out for dinner soon.
You're sometimes tough to get to dinner because I like to go early.
But
thanks for coming here.
You already did at 5:30.
It is a problem for nightclub comics.
I don't say it's not 5:30.
It's 6.
But I like to eat.
I would eat at 5:30.
Yeah, he likes to eat.
Thanks for having me on, guys.
That was fun.
Guys, we just walked.
Bobby Lee basically kicked him out because he could have gone on forever.
He's so goddamn hilarious.
I love the awkwardness and funniness, but he's just, we're all weird, and it's very funny.
Love the dude, very sweet guy.
He was just pulling out, and I said, you should turn your car around.
He goes, no, I can back out.
I go, no.
Well, there's a driveway that's a little tricky.
It gets right at the gate.
It gets small.
And I go, it's kind of hard.
And he goes, no, no, I'll just back out.
Heather and I went to the window and watched him just go, just took his mirror off.
And I was like,
anyway,
I told him I'll do some spots at the store and work it off.
But super funny.
You laugh, Dana.
He's a great guy, right?
Well,
as you saw, folks, he's the kind of guest you don't need to do any prep.
None.
So I did none because I'd seen it.
I know enough of him.
I've seen him enough to know that,
you know, he's just, well, first of all, there's very few comedians who have a real great laugh.
Usually we have a pretty good laugh, but we're the ones trying to get the laugh.
He's really funny and has an incredible laugh.
So he brought all this energy right away.
And so that was just went by very fast.
Like I was saying, he's a fun comic because he will laugh at your stuff and he does go back and forth with you and it keeps the balls in the air.
And when you're interviewing, he does so many podcasts.
He knows not to just sit there and give mousy little answers.
He
answers, tells a story, laughs, stands up.
That's what you want.
So we, I mean, for a guy, we've been talking about having him in, and I see him out, and Santino's coming in soon.
It's like, we kind of waited on Theo and Tim Dylan and these guys for this chunk of shows, and they're going to be great.
We have our bucket list.
You know, I would say I learned from him and you did a little bit too, but it is kind of interesting.
Like,
like maybe I shouldn't say this,
but I feel like I just want to say this.
I hope it's okay.
That's me illustrating what I was, my point was.
It's very much, you lean in, even you did it.
I don't know if I should bring this up.
But so when he did that precursor, it's good podcasting.
Maybe I shouldn't really bring this up, but it was one line.
Sometimes people that I see on podcasts that don't do a lot of them or that aren't that interesting go, they intentionally go,
I've never told you this story.
I've never told the story on podcasts before.
And everyone's like, And they're like, anyway, here's my dumb story.
And it's, but they, they want you to be like, where's the clip guy?
Get ready.
and then they you know bore the shit off i probably shouldn't say this it's a really good one yeah i'm gonna get in trouble if i say this and i have 10 of those in my pocket but i i i haven't followed my own advice i like that we finally turned the air conditioner after me and bobby in this sweatshop uh I sold this jean jacket and I took, I took it off.
I went t-shirt today because it was so cold.
It was so hot.
And now I'm glad I took it because it's so cold.
But anyway, that was Bobby.
I had a blast.
Dana had a blast, right?
Love, love, and we'll look forward to the other guys like Santino, Tim, Theo.
They're all coming in soon.
And we're going to get this wave of dudes.
And thanks for watching.
We will actually have women too.
And some women.
