Ike Barinholtz

Speaker 1 You know, when it gets colder, I always fall in the same trap. Heavy meals, too much takeout, and suddenly I'm like, why do my jeans hate me?

No, I made that up, but anyway, I'll give you a little taste of him if you miss him.

Speaker 2 Everybody's like,

Speaker 2 Anyway, that's my David Spade.

Speaker 2 Our guest today, when David is on the interview, was really a blast. We put him in one of our favorites, Ike Baron Holse,

Speaker 2 who was on Mad TV for like seven years, I think, did all these characters. he's got a big

Speaker 2 a big resume the mindy project and currently running point

Speaker 2 um on netflix with kate hudson chet hanks that's pretty cool justin thoreau so we go through all those shows we go through his career he has a nepo dad you'll find out about that

Speaker 2 And he is sort of a brainiac. He's one

Speaker 2 celebrity at Jeopardy and who wants to be a millionaire and raised literally babillions, millions for charity.

Speaker 2 So very fun. A hard laugher

Speaker 2 came to play. So I think this one will cheer you up for sure.
Ike Baron Holz, everybody.

Speaker 3 I can't wait for the 50th anniversary of this five place.

Speaker 2 I skipped the SNL 50th, man. Had something to do.
Wait, were you?

Speaker 3 I was wondering, you must have had, like, you must have had the flu or something.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I had the flu that was lingering. So I was kind of by the day of the show, I felt great, but I was 3,000 miles away.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 But I, but yeah, when I had to make the call, I was like, I don't have the oomph.

Speaker 3 And, you know, yeah, no.

Speaker 2 Do we have to? Well, if he doesn't have the oomph, we don't want him. Um,

Speaker 2 Marcy, look up oomph. No, it's a Scandinavian word for laissez-faire, I believe.

Speaker 1 For laissez-faire.

Speaker 2 Did you audition for SNL? We don't have any outline, but

Speaker 2 you have a lot to talk about.

Speaker 3 I did not audition for SNL. In like 1998, I remember people from NBC came to Improv Olympic to watch, you know, to scout.

Speaker 2 And I remember,

Speaker 3 oh my God. And it was the worst too, because the owner, God bless her, Sharna, she like invited like 50 of us to go on stage at once so like everyone was like put you're pushing people aside to like

Speaker 1 stage how sickening

Speaker 3 yeah it was it was just reprehensible but uh so then i i i i moved to amsterdam for a couple years and then when i came back i was like i want to do snl but before snl I even auditioned, I got cast on Mad TV.

Speaker 3 And so I was kind of there.

Speaker 1 Basically the same thing. So you're doing sketches and uh, you stayed there a long time, though, right? Are you one of the longest?

Speaker 2 No, there's different versions online, by the way. The last one I got before this was 2002 to 2007.

Speaker 3 That's that's right, that is

Speaker 2 2009 to 2000.

Speaker 3 I mean, there's I mean, it's it's a very important information, so it's natural there's going to be discrepancies

Speaker 3 online about it.

Speaker 2 Mine says 1886,

Speaker 2 it's got to be wrong.

Speaker 3 Oh, man. I did an amazing impression of Rutherford B.

Speaker 2 Hayes that really got me cast on it.

Speaker 1 That guy gets literally no.

Speaker 2 I do him too, by the way. I've done them.

Speaker 2 You did Rutherford.

Speaker 2 Give me a second. Now I'll leave you a Roth trial.

Speaker 2 I'm Ruth of Hayes. Ruth P.
Hayes. President of Pusa P.A., President of this Hitler, United States.

Speaker 2 I don't say it's accurate, but

Speaker 2 it's the stab. I'm Ruth of Ruth.

Speaker 2 So were you like did that disappoint you at all that you weren't on snl or you were just glad to be on a sketch show every week getting paid

Speaker 3 my dream was to always be on snl we grew up in a very snl heavy home uh like we we some of my earliest memories are watching like uh like eddie murphy uh the 83 year uh with like billy crystal and stuff yeah

Speaker 3 so we were obsessed with it in our house and and when you're in the comedy scene especially the improv scene in Chicago in the 90s, that's your goal.

Speaker 3 But,

Speaker 3 you know, listen, man,

Speaker 3 I was bussing tables at Morton's on La Cieneca.

Speaker 2 And I know the rest of the restaurants. You know the restrooms?

Speaker 3 It's no longer there, sadly.

Speaker 2 Bus boy. I was

Speaker 2 a bus boy. We've all been busboys.

Speaker 3 The hardest job in the world, busing tables. It's so hard.

Speaker 3 Especially there because there's like so many famous people, you know, and you're like kind of like starstruck.

Speaker 3 Like one time, I saw Pete Rose there and I was so excited, you know, and I walked past him and he grabbed my arm. He goes, Hey, give my wife a diet coke, get out of here.

Speaker 2 And I was like, Okay, get out of here that fast. Jesus.
And you said, Hey, hey, Pete, I just won 20 bucks. I promised that guy you would say, Get my wife a Diet Coke.

Speaker 3 Bet you can't finish that ribeye, Charlie.

Speaker 2 Oh, boy.

Speaker 3 But it was, it was, it was, you know, to get an offer to be on a TV show, especially a sketch comedy show, was, was just a dream. So I was just kind of like, great, let's do it.

Speaker 3 And there was really great writers there, great, some great people.

Speaker 2 A lot of great people came out of it.

Speaker 1 You were with Bobby Lee around then, too. He's funny.
I see.

Speaker 3 Oh, my friend. I know you're friends with Bobby.
You've been friends with Bobby for a very long time.

Speaker 1 We're business acquaintances, yes.

Speaker 2 And Josh Myers, Zeth is the great Josh Myers.

Speaker 3 Yeah, Josh Myers and

Speaker 3 Michael McDonald was still there.

Speaker 3 Jordan Peel and Keegan Michael Key came while we were there.

Speaker 2 Nicole Parker. Nicole, you did have a big fat cast at that time.
Yeah, we had a big fat cast.

Speaker 1 Dude, I like that when I look at your impressions. When does Bo Beis impression come up these days? Not as much as before.

Speaker 2 Yeah, you have some quirky impressions. Can we get

Speaker 2 the off-labels be obscure?

Speaker 1 Carrie Underwood, right?

Speaker 2 Is that Rutherford B. Hayes? Bo Beis.

Speaker 3 Oh, my God. I mean, I'm still doing it a lot, obviously.

Speaker 2 Uh, uh,

Speaker 3 I, I, I, I, I shouldn't say this, but I feel like Bobice, if you told me he stormed the Capitol, I'd be like, Yeah, Bo Bice is um

Speaker 2 typecast. Uh,

Speaker 3 but yeah, we, you know, Mad TV definitely did a lot of impressions of the moment, of course.

Speaker 2 We got stuck with that too.

Speaker 1 It's like, whoever that week, like, go around the room, can you cover this one? Can you, and you just have to work on some something close?

Speaker 3 Was there ever one that you guys were like, bum that you're like this is obviously this is a bad impression i don't want to do it oh it's they're so super hard

Speaker 2 you know usually during the primary seasons politically they'd say you know you're john lickwick from uh pennsylvania circuit four and then you look at the impression like hi i'm john liquick and you know there's no hope

Speaker 2 you know and then lauren would say are you ever going to get representative john licknick and i said no i sometimes say to lauren no it's not going to happen it's not going to happen but the key to impressions if you can't do it just say the name of who you're doing right at the get-go oh yeah

Speaker 2 I'm John Licknick and they don't know but did you what was your best one I'm just curious that you thought was the most accurate because I saw you did Arnold

Speaker 3 oh but my Arnold was not great especially that was a huge bummer because Will Sasso was on the show I really kind of like replaced him and he did the funniest Arnold

Speaker 3 so then I had to come in and do my kind of half-baked one that wasn't that great and it wasn't funny and it wasn't funny.

Speaker 2 Well, it's all right.

Speaker 3 But Wills, but Wills was like

Speaker 3 a tour divorce.

Speaker 3 You know, I kind of look like Mark Wahlberg. So, you know, I sometimes go to Mark Wahlberg.
Come in. Come on, sit down.
Maybe I'll give you a knuckle sandwich if you're lucky.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that's it. That was kind of, you know.

Speaker 3 But there was a lot of times, too, where I would just get, I remember one time I got a sign and they were doing a Frasier parody.

Speaker 3 And the writer's like, you're going to play John Mahoney, who was the father on Frasier, who's a great actor. Yeah, and I was like, I can't play, he's like an older man.

Speaker 3 And I remember sitting in, we did a lot of uh prosthetic makeup on that TV.

Speaker 2 Like, I think more than that.

Speaker 3 And I remember sitting in makeup for like two hours as they're aging me. And I was complaining so much.
And I was on set, and I only had like three lines. And one of them was, I'm John Mahoney.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 3 I complained so much that they cut down my lines where I only said that in the sketch.

Speaker 2 And it was I complained so much. Five hours of prosthetic

Speaker 3 makeup, six hours to get it off, getting it off where they put that like alcohol directly in your eyeball. And they're like, I'll go with them.

Speaker 1 I'm such a colossal puss. When I do movies and they're like, or SNL even, but you hear about these people that are in makeup chair for nine hours a day.
I'm like, well, what are you shooting?

Speaker 2 Like you shoot.

Speaker 1 one half a scene and then go home and undo it all. Like you're only legally allowed to shoot so long And you get all this shit on to look like the blob and then you or the penguin.

Speaker 1 I would just say, I'm going to sleep as a penguin, guys.

Speaker 2 We'll give you a little

Speaker 2 start tomorrow morning.

Speaker 2 Who's the guy that plays the penguin now? Nice looking movie.

Speaker 2 Yeah, and it's like he's. Hey, some agent somewhere is going, you're throwing away your good looks.
You got good looks. You're behind rubber.
I can't monetize this kid.

Speaker 1 But I, you know, so he got enough good looking parts.

Speaker 2 Now he's, now he just won something for the penguins so i want to actually come up with a lit cigar at some point it's like it's a magic chick

Speaker 2 well i know you're but i know i know you from your rafael palmaro

Speaker 2 i like they bother putting that in your wikipedia

Speaker 2 what the hell is a rafael palmaro

Speaker 3 he was a baseball player for the texas rangers and he was He was like a big steroid guy, and he kind of famously went in front of Congress and was like, I did not take take steroids oh right so we did like a parody called like oops i just took steroids or something i can't remember what it was but yeah that was another uh impression that i still am getting a lot of love for people are constantly asking me to do oh really a baseball player who retired in

Speaker 3 1996.

Speaker 2 Did they do the thing like, because I noticed when the Mark McGuire and those went up to Congress that they were so roided up, by the time they got to Congress, they didn't bother to buy fitted suits.

Speaker 2 So like like, they got little pencil necks and giant suits, and it was so obvious.

Speaker 2 Bursting through

Speaker 2 gigantic suits

Speaker 2 looked like David.

Speaker 2 I'm wearing a 52 large,

Speaker 2 and now I weigh 160 pounds. But I'm telling you, I did nothing.
That 290 I put on.

Speaker 3 I know my head is three times the size of a normal man's. I know that, Senator Lucknick.

Speaker 1 I have a huge jaw and forearms for no reason.

Speaker 2 I love the callbacks. It was representative, but.

Speaker 3 Well, it was your character.

Speaker 2 I loved it.

Speaker 3 Well, he became a senator.

Speaker 2 You know, he became a senator. I'm going to run with it.
So you did a lot of work before he got on Mad TV and you went to Amsterdam for two. Who went with you to Amsterdam?

Speaker 3 So I was there. So there was a theater that a bunch of dudes in Chicago started.

Speaker 3 Dutch comedy back in the day was very good.

Speaker 2 Josh Myers, right? They loved it.

Speaker 3 Yeah, Josh Myers was there.

Speaker 3 Seth Myers was there, and I kind of came in right after him. But I was there with Brendan Hunt, who I don't know if you guys watched Ted Lasso.
He's coach, coach.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah.
I love that guy.

Speaker 3 Yeah. And then, well, I was there for about just about two years, and we had great people come through.
Sudeikis came through there for a year. Sudaca.

Speaker 2 Jordan Peele.

Speaker 3 Sudacakes was there.

Speaker 3 Jordan Peele.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 3 Kakowski, Kay Cannon, who directed me and Blockers. Amber Ruffin,

Speaker 3 just all these really,

Speaker 3 really funny people. And it was a really fun time, too, because it was like before like, it was like before 9-11, you know what I mean? Like, it wasn't

Speaker 3 the Euro yet.

Speaker 3 It was the Gilder. Yeah.

Speaker 3 So it was really

Speaker 3 nice. And I still talk to a lot of the sex workers I befriended while I was there.

Speaker 2 We still keep in touch with sex workers.

Speaker 2 A Dutch accent is tricky, but the Myers brothers, Josh and Zeth, didn't they live there in high school or something? They have a big affinity for it.

Speaker 3 Well, they just, they just really like Josh kind of went native for a while and dated like a Dutch woman for a long time. And yeah, the Dutch people, as a people, they're very like reserved.

Speaker 3 They're very, but they're very honest. Like they're,

Speaker 3 they would come up to you after the show and be like,

Speaker 3 I did not think you were the funniest one. I thought your black friend was funnier.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 3 the woman, the woman, the song about sex was very good as well.

Speaker 3 So congratulations and goodbye.

Speaker 2 And you're like, thank you.

Speaker 2 If I had a dollar for every time my wife said that, because she's half Dutch. Her dad was Dutch.
And she says,

Speaker 2 I listened to the podcast and Ike was a terrific guest. You were not at a 10?

Speaker 2 You were a little bit late there. I don't know why you were.
The representative Lutnack Kombach was very entertaining. I'll see you at dinner time, bitch.
I go, bitch,

Speaker 2 why do you have to say, bitch?

Speaker 3 That's not, that's unacceptable.

Speaker 1 You know that feeling when you're doom scrolling? I do. Suddenly an hour has gone by or a day and you feel worse than before?

Speaker 4 We're better. Let's get it.

Speaker 2 So when did you start feeling like just either as a kid or high school, like, I think I should do this. I'm good at this.

Speaker 2 Because on your Wikipedia page, it said, consider to be a lawyer or a politician. Okay.
Yeah, grown up.

Speaker 3 Okay. Yeah, grown up in Chicago.
I mean,

Speaker 3 my goal was representative Lucknick when I was a child, but as I got older, I went to college and I didn't, I knew I didn't want to be in politics. I was a terrible student in college.
And

Speaker 3 I kind of eventually got kicked out of college because I stopped going to class. And

Speaker 3 I was drawn to acting and I didn't, and I was drawn to comedy, but I didn't know where to start. And my dad took us to see the improv Olympics, I think like their

Speaker 3 maybe their 15-year anniversary or their 10-year anniversary. And I saw improv for the first time.
And I saw Adam McKay and I saw Amy Poehler.

Speaker 3 And specifically, the person who made me laugh so hard that I was like, I need to do this was Tim Meadows.

Speaker 3 Like he is to me, like one of just the funniest people in the world. And

Speaker 3 watching him on stage, just kind of enter a scene and make a random joke and got such a big laugh. I was like, oh, I'm signing up for improv classes.
I got to do it. So that was it.

Speaker 3 I was, I was like 18 at the time.

Speaker 3 And i was i really kind of jumped all in it was so much fun and you're 18 at that point and how old were you when you got mad tv was that kind of your biggest break and then you went from oh oh that was my first break yeah i got mad tv i was probably 20 25 ish yeah okay um wow it was great i was making that that late night money which when you're broke you're like

Speaker 3 i'm basically steve jobs uh and then as you learn you're like oh late night money is terrible it's not in the grand screen of show, it's acting.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's not good. But you're on a job.

Speaker 1 You worked with Del Close. That was Farley's guy.

Speaker 3 Yes, yeah, man.

Speaker 3 Oh, yeah. I hung out with Farley a couple of times.

Speaker 2 Oh, good.

Speaker 3 I got to meet him a couple of times.

Speaker 3 And he was like my idol.

Speaker 3 I loved him so much. And I remember one time he came.
I was a bus boy at Second City.

Speaker 3 And I remember he would come in once in a while. And he was always so nice.

Speaker 3 he was midwest nice midwest wisconsin nice wisconsin nice yeah and one night he came up to me and was like hey you know where uh where johnny is you know his brother johnny yeah and i was like oh yeah he's he was actually he's at this party uh on lincoln and he's like you want to go can you take me there and i'll never forget like i turned to my

Speaker 3 so he says that okay go ahead go ahead finish this so i turned to my friend my my buddy brian from high school i was like hey do you i quit can you take me and chris farley to this party he was like what what

Speaker 3 and we went there and we were i remember we parked and we're walking right under the the l tracks train tracks and chris is like i gotta pee i gotta pee and i was like i gotta pee too and we started peeing and i remember he turns to me he goes you want to play swords you know

Speaker 3 and i was like yeah yeah yeah and i i kind of turn and we're kind of you know mixing our urine right and he just kind of turns and just sees kind kind of on my foot he goes i cut your foot off

Speaker 2 so

Speaker 2 oh what

Speaker 3 i couldn't like i couldn't metabolize but what's happening

Speaker 2 david you knew chris well this did you ever sword fight with him

Speaker 2 um

Speaker 1 but yes that sounds like classic buffoonery I think

Speaker 3 I'm not just saying this because I'm on this podcast right now. I think this weekend we're going to show, I have three daughters from six to 12.

Speaker 3 And I think we're going to show them Tommy Holt this week.

Speaker 2 It's a 30th anniversary, I heard. Oof.

Speaker 3 Maybe 20. It's a bummer when you, I heard it's the 15th, actually.

Speaker 2 It just came out.

Speaker 2 I would never say anything higher than 15.

Speaker 1 That sounds sickening.

Speaker 2 I don't know.

Speaker 1 I can't believe I've been around 30 years to do anything. Like, oh, gross.

Speaker 3 You look, you look really good, though, man. Like, you're really hanging on.
Like, it's a lot of people

Speaker 2 they get smashed by the wall but you're looking good unbelievable thank you buddy look at this you're welcome new sweater on trying to zhuzh it up it's good it's the beard it's very good it's working oh yeah tommy boy is pretty much surefire i think for your case

Speaker 2 yeah

Speaker 3 it is i'll probably just hit a quick fast forward on the scene where you're

Speaker 2 oh that's right you know sometimes they

Speaker 1 take that out of uh when it's on tv and stuff and i never knew that i'm like oh there's a couple of things they just pull out of movies where you're like oh

Speaker 1 yeah so some people never see that part

Speaker 3 yeah if you're watching it on tbs that's not in there but we're gonna go ahead and pay the apple tv

Speaker 2 you'll probably be getting a little check in the mail you're welcome oh yeah it's not a competition but if if something doesn't work out or it doesn't quite fly you pop in waynesworld one

Speaker 2 or two but it's not a competition i'm just saying i love tommy boy i think it's a classic but if it doesn't work out you're like, what do we do? Well, let's not surf the web or go on Instagram.

Speaker 2 Let's put in.

Speaker 1 Ike, I have been pitched Tommy Boy 2, and I'm telling you, I always go,

Speaker 1 you have heard the news about Farley. And they're like, yeah, but it would still, and I'm like, it would still be

Speaker 2 without Chris.

Speaker 1 It would still be what?

Speaker 1 I mean, you don't think that was 99% of them. They're like, it's about, and I'm like, oh, it's just a good, solid break pad movie.

Speaker 2 Do they push back at the co-star who knew Chris better than anybody?

Speaker 2 I said, well, I can't do it.

Speaker 3 I think it's a prequel where you go back to the founding of Callahan Auto.

Speaker 2 Oh, okay.

Speaker 3 And you have basically someone playing like

Speaker 3 young Brian Denahy.

Speaker 2 Oh, you go way back.

Speaker 3 You go way back. Yeah.
So this is way before Chris.

Speaker 2 So really what you're looking for.

Speaker 3 Instead of looking for a modern day Chris Farley, which is impossible, you find a modern day Brian Brian Bennett.

Speaker 2 I think it's doable.

Speaker 3 I think that is doable.

Speaker 2 That's interesting because looking at all your stuff, you're a writer. Right.

Speaker 2 A real writer, not a comedian who hogged into some bullshit.

Speaker 2 And you're a co-producer, co-writer of your current project.

Speaker 1 Now, how do you say it, Dana?

Speaker 2 Now, I'd say that's the best pitch for a Farley

Speaker 2 that I've heard for a Tommy Boy sequel.

Speaker 2 You slap on an executive producer, you do a cameo like Stallone in Staying Alive with Travolta, and you do that little turn, and it's David Spade, and then you walk, yeah, boom, boom.

Speaker 2 So much boom's coming.

Speaker 1 That's all I mean.

Speaker 2 Do you like money? Do you like money? Do you like Dalad Delta? You like money? We're asked that a lot by our agents and managers. I don't think I want to fly to Malaysia for a one-niner.

Speaker 2 Guess you don't like money.

Speaker 2 Guess you don't like money. Well, do you want to go? Joe Biden likes money.

Speaker 2 That'd be a good thing.

Speaker 3 Do you want to do impressions of Joe Biden for the Saudi royal family?

Speaker 2 I don't.

Speaker 2 Well, that,

Speaker 2 because they don't care what they pay. No tax.
We pay the tax. We paid the shitbox golfer 400 million.
He can't make a pot.

Speaker 3 My friend, you are going to go home with this lion. Yes.
It will fly with you on the plane.

Speaker 2 We will fly back to the airport.

Speaker 1 So we get it all back.

Speaker 2 The key to that is, my friend. That's that's that's it.
My friend. My friend, my friend, listen to me, my friend.
We are going to make you so rich if you want to be rich. And I'm from Denver.

Speaker 2 I just adopted this accent by watching too much alabarsital. Too much.
All right, go ahead.

Speaker 1 Running running point.

Speaker 2 Now,

Speaker 1 there, I have heard it both ways. Like,

Speaker 1 I think it's running point,

Speaker 1 and people say running point.

Speaker 2 I thought it was the

Speaker 2 mediocre rascals. Wasn't that the name of it?

Speaker 3 That was the name we tried to get.

Speaker 2 The mediocre rascals, I decided to be

Speaker 3 the little rascals own any rascal industry, and Eddie Murphy would have a bone to pick.

Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Luckily, we get involved.

Speaker 3 It is, it is, it's whatever you want it to be. You could say running point, you could say running point, you could say running point.

Speaker 1 Because there is something when people go, you're going to run point on this job or whatever on this client.

Speaker 1 and no one else does.

Speaker 2 And I'm, I call it, what's the point?

Speaker 3 we got uh my my sources told me we were picked up for other season

Speaker 2 but you do something whoops you're part of putting it together is just You're executive producer with Mindy Cowan. Yeah,

Speaker 3 Mindy came to my partner, Dave Fassen, and I was like, you guys love basketball. We work together at the Mindy Project.

Speaker 3 We have this show that I think could be a funny kind of family business show at a basketball club. And we were, we loved her.
We had such a fun time working with her.

Speaker 3 It had been a while and we had just finished up a thing. And so we kind of spent a long time kind of breaking the show and what it could be.
And

Speaker 3 we kind of,

Speaker 3 it became very, very real when Kate Hudson was like, I want to play this part. Cause that was like, wow, that's a real, that's a real no-fool in movie star.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah. She's

Speaker 2 fantastic. And you got Justin Thoreau, too, who's just too cool for friend of the show.

Speaker 3 He's so cool. Friend of the show.
One of the, my, he's my best dressed friend.

Speaker 2 He does dress cool.

Speaker 3 Yeah. And it's just like,

Speaker 3 I think he has clothes that are like all bespoke, like little leather jackets that like are only made for him.

Speaker 2 Can I throw something?

Speaker 2 Can I throw something that about?

Speaker 2 This has been a thing that I've talked. We talked to Justin about it.
I just have a thing that like he would be the perfect guy in a Rod Serling bio pic.

Speaker 3 Oh my God. He looks so much like him.

Speaker 2 And he really plays that vibe. But I don't know if it doesn't have to happen, but I just, yeah.
Picture, if you will. Picture, if you will.

Speaker 1 Like picture if you will. He did night guy.

Speaker 3 A tiny leather jacket.

Speaker 2 Picture, if you will,

Speaker 1 Dracker Cologne.

Speaker 2 Well, I love that he's so polite. I can't think of the other thing.
Instead of think of this, was the first thing. Think of this.

Speaker 2 Then he said, picture if you will it's a i watched two episodes of twilight zone yesterday which one wally cox with the uh the first ai woman that falls in love with him wally cox from an old tv show what hollywood squares

Speaker 2 marlon brando's best friend by the way they would they would like uh uh

Speaker 3 Coxman together.

Speaker 2 He was on that show called Escabros.

Speaker 2 You know,

Speaker 2 Wally Cox was on.

Speaker 1 Wally Cox was on.

Speaker 2 What did you say? Because I want to laugh.

Speaker 1 Escabros.

Speaker 1 Eskimo Brothers.

Speaker 1 But Wally Cox was the bottom left square

Speaker 1 when I was a kid in Hollywood Squares. And I had no idea he was an Escobro with all these famous people.
I just thought he and Paul Lynn were funny, you know.

Speaker 2 So, oh, that's tremendous,

Speaker 2 smells like pussy in here, I think.

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 2 smells like that's a that was repeated.

Speaker 2 But anyway,

Speaker 2 back to your show, scared straight.

Speaker 2 Um,

Speaker 2 Katie, and

Speaker 2 Katie Hudson, who I think is tremendous.

Speaker 3 Amazing. And it's so much, like, so fun.
Like, stories about like her stories are so crazy, you know, like, oh, yeah, you know, it was my birthday. And it was crazy.

Speaker 3 Like, Paul McCartney, you know, was there. And at one point, he looked over to Barack Obama and told him this.
Jesus. And when people tell you those stories, I'm like, what do I have?

Speaker 2 I'm like, oh, really?

Speaker 2 He is one of the funniest. He's one of the all-time funniest.

Speaker 1 He's got a very funny thing about him.

Speaker 2 He's got a great burn. He acts real serious and just looks

Speaker 2 at them. I like when he stares

Speaker 2 in his podcast. And you know, he's loaded up with some of the stuff.

Speaker 1 Every other comment is racist, and he just stares at them.

Speaker 2 And he doesn't say anything.

Speaker 2 I think I'm going to take off.

Speaker 2 That's funny.

Speaker 2 Oh,

Speaker 1 by the way, Dana, on a side note, you don't have to listen.

Speaker 1 When I was golfing with Lovetts the other day,

Speaker 1 I burned him because we were on the green and he was blabbing away and I was walking the other side of the green. I go, uh-oh, you're cutting out.

Speaker 1 And I've never used it in real life before, but it was good with Lovitz because he goes, I take offense to that, and I'm sorry about your attitude.

Speaker 2 And then, but it was funny to say he's cutting out in real life.

Speaker 1 Laughed at my own joke, then laughed at his.

Speaker 1 All right, go ahead. Back to this guy.

Speaker 2 Some people say you're cutting out on me. You're cutting out on me.
I have a brother who says that to me. You're cutting out on me.
Well, I'm not doing it intentionally, bitch.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah. They're mad as affectionate.

Speaker 1 You're cutting out.

Speaker 2 You're cutting out on me. It's not.
What?

Speaker 2 So the show's a smash.

Speaker 2 Show was picked up, which is I thought you're in it a little bit or where are you as an actor? No, I'm not in it.

Speaker 3 I just kind of wrote it and was there while we were shooting it. My dad is in it.
My dad is an actor. He plays the family attorney.

Speaker 2 I saw him.

Speaker 2 So maybe you saw him.

Speaker 2 The attorney on jury duty.

Speaker 3 Yeah, the judge. He played the judge on jury duty.

Speaker 2 And he always wanted to be in show business. You get in show business.
Now he's in show business.

Speaker 3 I got a Nepo dad.

Speaker 2 And he has a good spot. That's cool.
A reverse. I've never heard of that.

Speaker 3 A Nepo, because a Nepo, I understand people get mad at Nepo babies. I don't, by the way.
I think they're good a lot of the time.

Speaker 2 They're fine.

Speaker 3 But Nepo. Unnecessary either.

Speaker 2 Everyone can get.

Speaker 3 Yeah, everyone can get behind uh a nepo dad yeah let him have fun yeah what do you what are you gonna and by the way uh who i think has a ton of charisma is chet hanks oh my god that's somebody else someone says to me it's like i can't believe chet hanks is such a good actor i'm like his dad is tom hanks that's

Speaker 2 the apple ain't gonna fall that far from the tree if he's half as good he's gonna get a couple oscars

Speaker 1 Again, with Ignora.

Speaker 2 I loved Ignora. What was the real name of it? What's it called? Adora.
Adnora. Okay.
Pardon me. No disrespect.
But I ignored

Speaker 1 some disrespect, by the way.

Speaker 2 No, I only saw Dune 2 and Conclave of the nominees. How many of you?

Speaker 3 I loved Conclave.

Speaker 2 I loved Dune 2. I loved Aenora.

Speaker 3 And I loved The Brutalist. And I think that's all I saw.

Speaker 2 Will you watch The Brutalists again?

Speaker 3 Never.

Speaker 2 Never.

Speaker 2 It's very cool.

Speaker 1 It's a feel-bad movie of the summer.

Speaker 3 Yeah, it's really

Speaker 2 brutal.

Speaker 3 But I really did think it was cool.

Speaker 1 Was Dune 2 with the Popes?

Speaker 2 No, the Popes were

Speaker 2 a new Pope, so they sequester him, not unlike a jury. They put him all in this big room in the Vatican.

Speaker 2 These dances

I've had enough.

Speaker 2 You're kind of a movie fan. Because, well, one thing is you must be, I don't know if your IQ's been tested, but I saw it.
I mean, come on. You've won twice.
Look at this shit.

Speaker 2 With Jeopardy, a million dollars, celebrity jeopardy.

Speaker 1 I've won Jeopardy twice.

Speaker 2 Celebrity Wheel of Fortune or no, wait.

Speaker 3 Celebrity, who wants to be a million dollars?

Speaker 2 Another million played with your dad. Yes.
And then you win this one of them by referring to an obscure quote in Eyes Wide Shut or a reference in Eyes Wide Shut. Stanley Kubrick.

Speaker 3 Yes, yes.

Speaker 2 Tell that story.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 3 I went on Celebrity Jeopardy. I won it.
I got the trophy right there.

Speaker 2 Did you go against Minnie?

Speaker 3 No, I went against, who did I play? I played Jalen Rose.

Speaker 3 I played Constance Wu. I played

Speaker 3 Simu Lu.

Speaker 3 I played

Speaker 3 Shang Chi.

Speaker 2 Wait a second. It sounds like it's all stacked over here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go ahead.

Speaker 3 I played. Hold on.
Someone else?

Speaker 1 These are the people you smoked.

Speaker 3 Then in the finals for Celebrity Jeopardy, I went up against Pat Patton, who's a real Smarty Pan.

Speaker 2 Pat and Oswald. Oh, Patton Oswald.
Yeah, yeah. He is a definite pop culture.

Speaker 3 Yeah, he loves that. And then also

Speaker 3 Will Wheaton, who

Speaker 2 remember star stand by me star trek yeah yeah uh he still gets stand by me

Speaker 2 uh he still gets stand by me uh uh

Speaker 2 next gen okay

Speaker 3 i won that so then i went back they invited me on the tournament of champions which i thought was just going to be like not to do with celebrities you're going on no celebrities

Speaker 3 and i just it was like a fait accompla that i wasn't going to win so i was just going to have fun and let these kind of you know sweet nerds destroy me and I just kind of by a fluke won my the quarterfinal and the final question was the final jeopardy category was Roman poets and I was like oh shit

Speaker 3 I only know like one or two

Speaker 3 and then

Speaker 3 I read like this what the quote was and I just in my mind I was kind of weighing them and I thought of eyes wide shut because you remember the scene in eyes wide shut where Nicole, they're at the party.

Speaker 3 They're at

Speaker 3 Sydney Pollack's party. Yeah.
Yeah. And Nicole came in, that like really creepy European guy is like, hello, how are you doing? Have you ever read Ovid on the Art of Love?

Speaker 3 And I was like, oh, Ovid, it'll be, maybe it's Ovid. And so I credit Family Kubrick.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God.

Speaker 2 How many times had you seen that movie? I've seen.

Speaker 3 I watch it with the family. We watch it once a week.

Speaker 2 With the kids?

Speaker 3 every Saturday with the kids. We watch it.

Speaker 3 We want them to understand that there is a Illuminati out there who are having secret sex.

Speaker 2 Do you have other Kubrik movies that you like?

Speaker 1 Is it Moon Landing?

Speaker 2 The Moon Landing.

Speaker 3 Moon Landing, the JFK.

Speaker 1 He's supposedly filming.

Speaker 2 That was Oliver Stone. Oh, he filmed the Moonland.
I see. Okay.
You got it. You got it.

Speaker 3 I have been in a bit of a Barry Linden phase.

Speaker 2 Really, really. I don't know the last time you seen it was.

Speaker 3 I remember seeing it when I was young and I was like, it's so long. But now when you watch it,

Speaker 3 it's hilarious, first of all.

Speaker 3 And it's so beautiful. And Ryan O'Neill really was a really great actor.

Speaker 2 I had the same thing. The standard was so high in the 70s with Kubrick and other movies that I saw it, didn't get it, saw it in the theater.
I watched it a year ago by myself, just said, fuck it.

Speaker 2 I'm going to go revisit it.

Speaker 2 And um

Speaker 2 the the uh

Speaker 2 the prologue what was the afterwards they said such was life in 16th century france or whatever and they're all gone now and then i i got the whole the whole thing and the thing the physical comedy of that dance sequence he did oh my god which he just stepped right up to the tippy toe of of winking at us yeah yeah But that's a brilliant film.

Speaker 2 Atmospherically, you are completely submerged

Speaker 2 into it. And the cinematography is, you know.
So, anyway, David.

Speaker 3 It's also very sexy. And let's, do you guys mind if we watch a couple hours of it real quick?

Speaker 2 We always talk about movies at some point. And I always say, if you can only watch one movie tonight, you had to watch a movie tonight by yourself, Ike.

Speaker 2 What pops into your head?

Speaker 3 God, this is different than my favorite movie, right?

Speaker 2 No, yeah,

Speaker 2 but what would you watch tonight?

Speaker 3 Tonight, if I was going to watch something,

Speaker 3 I would watch

Speaker 3 Idiocracy.

Speaker 2 Oh, okay. Wow.
Workplace Comedy with Mike Judge. Workplace comedy with Mike Judge.

Speaker 3 I was just watching a little of it on a flight last week. And

Speaker 3 not drawing any parallels to the present, of course. But it is such a funny movie.
And every time I watch it, it gets funnier and funnier.

Speaker 2 I would watch

Speaker 2 The Bridget Remodgen, World War II movie from the 70s. That's what I would watch.

Speaker 3 What's it called? What's it called?

Speaker 2 The Bridget Remogen or Remodgen? Remogen? No, I'm kidding. You don't have to watch that.
What I do.

Speaker 3 But I want to do it.

Speaker 2 I like.

Speaker 2 The Longest Day. If you like World War II movies, bro.

Speaker 3 That is a great movie. The Longest Day.

Speaker 2 But if you haven't seen, because God rest his soul, Gene Hackman, if you haven't seen The Firm, you've seen it, bro.

Speaker 3 Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 He's crazy.

Speaker 2 And that whole movie is fantastic.

Speaker 3 That movie is really great. Like, for a legal thriller, that's a great movie.

Speaker 2 And he's unbelievable.

Speaker 3 No, that's the Pelican brief.

Speaker 3 That's his next movie. David, what would you watch? And don't say Tommy Boyd.
Don't say Tommy Boyd.

Speaker 2 Don't plug the 30 pants.

Speaker 2 Don't say Opportunity Knots. Josie and the Pussycats.

Speaker 1 All the classics.

Speaker 1 No, I don't.

Speaker 2 Dave's not a movie.

Speaker 1 When I get on a a movie, when I get on a flight,

Speaker 1 I have to have a TV on the back of that chair. And it just kills time.
It's so great. So when I'm on a flight,

Speaker 1 they have new releases. They have old ones.
I always buzz through. I can't tell you the last one I saw, but I will say, I don't think they can call Fern Gully a new release on Delta.

Speaker 1 Just shouting out. Legally, I don't think they can.

Speaker 1 And I do watch, I will watch almost anything on a plane because you're stuck. So, God, what did I watch last time? Maybe

Speaker 1 that Tom Cruise Emily Blunt.

Speaker 3 Oh, Edge of Tomorrow.

Speaker 1 Edge of Tomorrow.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah. That's a cool one.
I like that movie. I like science fiction.
You got another thumbs up.

Speaker 3 Hey, Dana, can I tell you something about Opportunity Knox? I saw that movie opening night.

Speaker 2 Love it.

Speaker 3 And a kid I went to school with, elementary school, was one of the kids who, the karate kids, who beats you up because you shot that movie. Yeah, Josh Livingston.
I don't know if you remember him.

Speaker 2 In Chicago.

Speaker 3 In Chicago, yeah. So I saw that movie opening weekend, baby.

Speaker 2 I did the best I could. It was a bit of a tussle with Creative Forces, but this goes full circle of this podcast.
So I'm doing the movie in Chicago.

Speaker 2 And so there's these two dudes playing dude number one, dude number two. Maybe they have a line.
They look like they're in their 40s or early 50s. And I'm just talking to them at lunch and whatever.

Speaker 2 And I didn't know one of them was the infamous improv guy you mentioned earlier, the godfather of improv. So, Del Close, he's moonlighting, getting a check on this

Speaker 2 silly romantic comedy. And I didn't know till later I was talking to Del Close.
He had no, he didn't ever kind of go, Well, you know what? I uh I kind of started improv in Chicago.

Speaker 3 No, he was very, very cool, and that checks out because he was always like broke. So, he would, whenever they were shooting a movie in town, he would get up, you know,

Speaker 2 directors would call him.

Speaker 3 He's teaching, and he was also like,

Speaker 3 you know a

Speaker 3 heroin addict for a long time he wasn't like uh he wasn't like uh he didn't have his together so to speak uh but he was a really uh fascinating guy and uh and i learned a lot from him and and uh yeah for a guy who i think touched so many people he wasn't a name dropper around us he never was like oh one time bill murdy uh told me you know he was just like very like uh he was just yeah it's cool

Speaker 2 yeah mike myers always would refer to down close you know, just so Mike was big. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 Mike Myers, who, by the way, is an enemy of the state right now because he's Canadian. So you guys should reach out to him because

Speaker 3 they're coming after him. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Well, I did Elon Musk for 28 seconds on that show and

Speaker 2 got a got a little chatter from him. And so now Mike's doing this sort of Monty Python-esque avant-garde version.
It's really funny. He's running.
He's turning. He turns himself off.

Speaker 2 He's like, um but yeah we'll we'll we'll we'll have him on tomorrow to discuss his uh yeah and if you guys could shelter him that would be nice because he's gonna need help we will remember shelter in place during the pandemic shelter in place do you remember the pandemic

Speaker 2 wherever you are

Speaker 3 do you mean do you mean the pandemic yeah

Speaker 3 anthony fauci that i made it's a jib jab where he kind of admits the whole thing was

Speaker 2 i want to hear it i want to see a jib jab you know my anthony fauci bits him. I know.
I told you if you had two shots, I just do this guy for him. You'd be dancing in the streets.

Speaker 2 I missed it by a little much, a little bit. Who knew it was a mutating mother? That's why I'm introducing the daily shot, Anthony Fauci's daily shot.

Speaker 2 Every single day you go to your healthcare provider, by the time you get to your car, you don't have any immunity, but it's a beautiful 39 seconds.

Speaker 3 He does, he's a doctor. He's supposed to be like, you know, have an academic voice.
And he sounds like he's trying to sell you like an old Pontiac in New Jersey.

Speaker 2 Let me get in this LeSaber.

Speaker 2 From the bottom of my all-new leather Fauci's, go

Speaker 2 fuck yourself.

Speaker 2 I just did that for myself. You are a great audience, Ike.

Speaker 2 You must be fun in the writer's room. And you're a great writer.

Speaker 1 I have a serious question for Ike before we...

Speaker 2 Get rid of him. Please.

Speaker 1 You were shooting the movie Blockers, which I think I just met your director recently.

Speaker 2 We had a

Speaker 2 super cool guy.

Speaker 1 He's also friends with Theo.

Speaker 3 Wait, Kay Cannon directed Blockers.

Speaker 2 Oh, maybe. That's a lady.

Speaker 1 Maybe he wrote it?

Speaker 2 Or did you write it?

Speaker 3 Oh, there were. Oh, yeah.
No, there were other writers. There was

Speaker 1 one of the 40 people.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 1 he's friends with Theo,

Speaker 1 pretending to be part of the film Blockers, and he was on the set.

Speaker 1 But it says, because I have a bad neck, neck, and you fucking did a stunt and you hurt your.

Speaker 3 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 God, that's the worst on a movie, too.

Speaker 3 Yeah, it was a bummer.

Speaker 1 You know, what dick joke were you doing where you fell?

Speaker 3 It was a, I was trying to suck my arm.

Speaker 3 It was like, it was an improv.

Speaker 1 Guys, let me, one take, keep the cameras going.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Get out of here.
Last take of the thing.

Speaker 3 No, it was right when it happened. You kind of don't even realize what's happening until before you know it, you have a a doctor being like hey you up your neck

Speaker 3 and uh so i was really bummed you know but uh luckily like i i really took the um

Speaker 3 i took like the rehab of it all really seriously the worst part about hurting your neck besides the fact that you could possibly be paralyzed is you have to wear a neck brace which we can all agree

Speaker 3 is an inherently comic thing Like when you see people in a neck brace, you're thinking like Christopher on the Sopranos or like John Lariquette on

Speaker 3 or it's like a funny it's a funny bit because most of the times it's like nine times out of ten when someone's wearing a neck brace they were rear-ended

Speaker 3 and and but this one it was a more involved one that was like had braces and buckles oh no and yeah that was rough that was really rough uh because like i would see friends of mine and people on the street too who don't even i don't even know them would walk up to me like oh my god what happened how they feel for you and like they feel for you which is nice but you're also like i don't want to You can't tell this fucking story.

Speaker 3 I don't want to talk about it.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I don't, I don't want to talk about it. You can tell us though.
So,

Speaker 3 yeah, so no, it was, it was a bummer, but it, it, it really, uh, I, every morning, I would wake up and they were like, you gotta do your, you gotta correct your posture, which is basically if you, if you shrug your shoulders and put your arms up and then drop your arms, that feels crazy, right?

Speaker 3 But yeah, I mean, that's your proper posture.

Speaker 3 So, I would strap that brace on and put on like a giant sun hat and just like walk up and down my block for as long until my legs gave out basically i was committed

Speaker 3 to fixing it without surgery trying to hold it so and i didn't have to have surgery and now watch this ready for this oh that's good that's more than i can do i could do the full brady butt full brady bunch

Speaker 3 mobility yeah can you crack your back just by yourself standing up like this uh i could crack my sternum a little bit okay but i've read i saw i read about a crazy person on TikTok that said

Speaker 3 you shouldn't be cracking and popping.

Speaker 1 I've seen those chiropractors on TikTok, but most of the time the people fart on the ones I get.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Those are funny.

Speaker 3 I get ones for dogs where it'll be like a guy who's like

Speaker 2 it. It's like

Speaker 3 140-pound pit bull, and he's like, and you hear like a bomb go off, and the dog is like.

Speaker 2 Oh, dogs are not used to getting cracked.

Speaker 1 It's so weird.

Speaker 2 And then the dog's happy, though, and runs away smiling. Is that because I saw one of them? I don't know if they're happy.

Speaker 3 I think that there's an owner holding a piece of paper.

Speaker 2 Yeah, they don't run.

Speaker 3 I don't buy it.

Speaker 1 I saw him do it to a gerbil. He's like, this.

Speaker 1 And the gerbil's like, I was fine.

Speaker 2 By the way, who's complaining about that? I did it to a red ant. I was like, can you cut them in half accidentally? And the ant was like,

Speaker 2 he's like, it's more my thorax.

Speaker 2 Luckily,

Speaker 2 it's more my thorax. Well,

Speaker 2 a gentleman joins us here today. I'm sure Ika Baron Holtz, she's made quite a splash on

Speaker 2 the Mindy Project. Plays a character named Morgan Tookers.
Is that funny Ed? Morgan Tookers, male nurse. Oh,

Speaker 2 please welcome. Dan, I don't know.

Speaker 2 Copper penny is by Warner Brothers. He would have gone to that.

Speaker 2 All right.

Speaker 3 And the Rusty Nail.

Speaker 2 And the Rusty Nail. And or the Desperate Pillow is another good

Speaker 2 watering hole, the Desperate Pillow. But anyway, so the first five years was big for you.

Speaker 3 Yeah, and it was so much fun. It was such a fun job.
We had, you know, such a fun cast and writers. It's like when a lot of my children were born while we were doing the show.
And now it's so crazy.

Speaker 3 Now they're watching it. It's on Netflix or it was on Netflix.
And now they're watching it.

Speaker 3 And it's really sweet because you do stuff like, and you, you just kind of don't re-watch it for a long time. And then it comes back to you one day with your kids and they get to see me,

Speaker 3 you know, like farting so hard that my pants fall down.

Speaker 2 How old are the kids again?

Speaker 3 Six, nine, and twelve.

Speaker 2 Okay, so they're still in the world of innocence and magic.

Speaker 2 Yeah, and they have social media, but still they're like.

Speaker 3 They do, but we don't, we, I really am like, you're going to watch like SNL and Wayne's World and Tommy Boy and the things that I loved.

Speaker 3 Because at some point, they're going to go online and watch some idiot online. So as long as they're in my house.

Speaker 1 Before they like the pranksters on TikTok, you have to give them some baseline.

Speaker 3 I'm sorry, if I was running for president.

Speaker 3 uh i would uh sadly have to execute all tick tock pranksters

Speaker 3 or you're put in a gulag like like because they're not even like clever pranks man it'll be like a guy like like an older man in a home depot like trying to get like a bag of mulch and they walk up behind him and like give him a wet willie and the guy's like what the fuck and then they run away and i'm like or they hit him with a ball in the head and then they both look around like what happened i'm like beat that was me too i got hit too and it's like you you guys are now gonna break rocks for five years yeah

Speaker 1 let's see some pranks about that I've seen when pranks go bad, I should send you one. It's Instagram where it goes wrong and they get the shit kicked out of them.

Speaker 3 It's great. David, I have seen those and it's mother's milk to me where a guy just starts waving.

Speaker 2 Yeah, and he's like, it's a prank.

Speaker 2 It's a prank. Who cares?

Speaker 1 Why would I be like, oh, you're not candid camera? You're some asshole.

Speaker 3 Oh, sorry. I didn't realize you were disrupting my life for internet.

Speaker 2 For your own fame,

Speaker 1 don't get me going, Ike.

Speaker 2 Ike, now, I have to say, were you named after Dwight D. Eisenhower, whose nickname was Ike? I'm sure you've been asked this a billion times, but Ike is a very

Speaker 2 unusual.

Speaker 3 This one's for the fans.

Speaker 2 I've never discussed this before.

Speaker 2 I never will.

Speaker 3 I will never discuss it again after this. It's very private, but I will tell you.
No, my real name is Isaac.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 yeah, I know. There we go.
It's very, it's a Jewish bummer.

Speaker 3 But

Speaker 3 I had a teacher, my favorite teacher, a guy named Kehoe, Mr. Kehoe, and he started kind of calling me Ike.
And that's really when it just, I kind of became Ike. And

Speaker 2 Ike's good because it's very rare.

Speaker 3 It's rare. And

Speaker 3 most Ike, I think, are good. Ike Eisenhower was an amazing friend.

Speaker 2 Ike Turner was really, really good.

Speaker 3 Ike Turner's the rough one, but you also have

Speaker 2 Ike Austin with the center for the Miami.

Speaker 3 Keat was very good. He was a good, listen, Ike Turner early on had a vision.
Yeah. And I think we can all agree he made some very bad decisions.

Speaker 3 And I don't like him. I think he's a bad guy.
Good job.

Speaker 1 On the record with that?

Speaker 2 On the record.

Speaker 3 I want to just end the controversy.

Speaker 2 We don't know how it happens. It's just random.
I can't.

Speaker 3 He has a special Zoom app.

Speaker 2 Yeah, you know.

Speaker 2 It's costs the world more, but it's worth it.

Speaker 1 All right, Ike. Anything else, Dana?

Speaker 2 Any final thoughts you want to do? Because what the Scared Straight Show or standing, running, what is it called?

Speaker 3 It's called Standing Remote.

Speaker 2 It says it right on top of it.

Speaker 2 That was it.

Speaker 3 I always hate when shows tee themselves up for critics to slam it.

Speaker 3 Running point is more like

Speaker 2 running away.
