This is Dana Solo. It's a little scary.
My partner in crime, David Spade, is flying right now. he's flying to Singapore today to do a corporate date no I made that up

but anyway My partner in crime, David Spade, is flying right now. He's flying to Singapore today to do a corporate date.
No, I made that up. But anyway, I'll give you a little taste of him if you miss him.
Everybody's like... Anyway, that's my David Spade.
Our guest today, where David is on the interview, was really a blast. We put him in one of our favorites, Ike Barinholtz, who was on MADtv for like seven years, I think, did all these characters.
He's got a big resume, The Mindy Project, and currently Running Point on Netflix with Cade Hudson, Chet Hanks. That's pretty cool.
Justin Theroux. So we go

through all those shows. We go through his career.
He has a Nepo dad. You'll find out about that.
And he is sort of a brainiac. He's one celebrity jeopardy and who wants to be a millionaire and raised literally billions, millions for charity.

So very fun.

A hard laugher came to play.

So I think this one will cheer you up for sure.

Ike Barinholtz, everybody.

I can't wait for the 50th anniversary of this podcast. I skipped the SNL 50th, man.
Had something to do. Wait, were you? I was wondering, you must have had, like, you must have had the flu or something.
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.
But, yeah, when I had to make the call, I was like, I don't have the oomph. Yeah, no.
Well, if he doesn't have the oomph, we don't want him. Marcy, look up oomph.
No, it's a Scandinavian word for laissez-faire, I believe. For lazy fare.
Did you audition for SNL? We don't have any outline, but you have a lot to talk about. I did not audition for SNL.
In like 1998, I remember people from NBC came to ImprovOlympic to watch, you know, to scout. I hate that.
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, you're pushing people aside to like do a character. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Trying to like stage, how sickening. Yeah, it was just irreprehensible.
But so then I moved to Amsterdam for a couple of 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.
And so I was kind of there. Basically the same thing.
So you're doing sketches. And you stayed there a long time time though, right? Are you one of the longest?

No.

There's different versions online, by the way.

The last one I got before this was 2002 to 2007.

That's right.

That is five years.

There's others 2009 to 2000.

I mean, there's.

I mean, it's a very important information.

So it's natural.

There's going to be discrepancies online about it. Mine says 1886, too.
It's got to be wrong. Oh, man, I did an amazing impression of Rutherford B.
Hayes that really got me passed on it. That guy gets literally no press.
I do him, too, by the way. I've done him.
You did Rutherford Hayes. Give me a P.
Hayes. Ruth P.
I don't say it's accurate, but it's the stab. I'm Ruth P.
So were you, like, did that disappoint you at all that you weren't on SNL or you you're just glad to be on a sketch show every week and paid 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. So we were obsessed with it in our house.
And when you're in the comedy scene, especially the improv scene in Chicago in the nineties, that's your goal. Um, but I, you know, listen, man, I, I, I, I was busing tables at Morton's on La Cienega and I know the rest of it.
It's no longer there, sadly.

But I was bussing tables at Morton's on La Cienega. And I know the rest of them.
You know the rest of them. It's no longer there, sadly.
Bus boy. I was a bus boy.
Bus boy. We've all been bus boys.
The hardest job in the world, bussing tables. It's so hard.
Especially there because there's like so many famous people, you know, and you're like kind of like starstruck. 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 and i was like okay get out of here that fast jesus and you said hey hey pete i just won 20 bucks i i promise that guy you would say get my wife a diet coke i bet you can't finish that ribeye charlie oh boy um um but so but it was it was it was you know to get an offer to be on 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 and there was really great writers there great some great a lot of great people came out you're with bobby lee around then him a lot.
Oh, my friend. I know you're friends with Bobby.
You've been friends with Bobby for a very long time. Right.
We're business acquaintances, yes. And Josh Myers, Zeth's brother, right? Yeah, Josh Myers and Michael McDonald was still there.
Jordan Peel and Keegan-Michael Key came while we were there. Nicole Parker.
Oh, you did have a big fat cast at that time. Yeah.
We had a big fat cast. Dude, I like that when I look at your impressions, when does Bo Bice impression come up these days? Not as much as before.
Yeah. You have some quirky impressions.
Can we get the off label obscure Carrie Underwood, right?

Is that him?

Rutherford B. Hayes.

Bo Bice.

Oh, my God.

I mean, I'm still doing it a lot, obviously.

I shouldn't say this, but I feel like Bo Bice, if you told me he stormed the Capitol, I'd be like, yeah.

Bo Bice is typecast.

But, yeah, you know, MADtv definitely did a lot of impressions of the moment. Of course.
We got stuck with that too. 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. Was there ever one that you guys were like, bummed 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.
You know, usually during the primary seasons, politically, they'd say, you know, you're John Lickwick from Pennsylvania Circuit Four. And then you look at the impression like, hi, I'm John Lickwick.
And you know, there's no hook, you know. And then Lorm would say, are you ever going to get representative John Licknick? And I said, no, I said, I said, Lorm, 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. That's it.
I'm John Licknick. And they don't know, but what was your best one? I'm just curious that you thought was the most accurate.
Cause I saw you did Arnold. 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.
So then I had to come in and do my kind of half big one. That wasn't that great.
And it wasn't funny. And it wasn't, well Wills.
Well, it's already good. But Wills was like a tour de force.
You know, I kind of look like Mark Wahlberg. So, you know, sometimes I do a Mark Wahlberg.
Come in. Come on, sit down.
Maybe I'll give you a knuckle sandwich if you're lucky. Yeah, that's it.
That was kind of, you know. But there was a lot of times, too, where I would just get one time i got assigned they were doing a fraser parody and the writer's like you're gonna play john mahoney who was the father on fraser who was a great actor yeah and i was like i can't play he's like a older man and i remember sitting in we did a lot of uh prosthetic makeup yeah yeah 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 i only had like three lines and one of them was i'm john mahoney and uh i complained so much that they cut down my lines where i only said that in the sketch and i complained so much five hours of prosthetic makeup six hours to get it off getting it off when i put that like alcohol directly in your eyeball and they're like oh don't worry i'm such a colossal puss when 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, what are you shooting? Like you shoot 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, look like the blob.
And then you, for the penguin, I would just say, I'm going to sleep as a penguin guys. We'll do this.
Give me a head start tomorrow. Who's the guy who plays the penguin now? Nice looking movie star.
Yeah. And it's like, he's some agent somewhere's going, you're throwing away your good looks.
You got good looks. You're behind rubber.
I can't monetize this kid. But I, you know, so he got enough good looking parts.
Now he's, now he just won something for the penguin. So I want to actually come up with a lit cigar at some point.
It's like, it's a magic trick. Well, I know you're, I know, I know you from your Raphael Palmeiro.
I like they bother putting that in your Wikipedia. What the hell is a Raphael Palmeiro? I think it's a baseball player.
He was a baseball player for the Texas Rangers. And 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 steroids 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 1996. What 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.
So like they got little pencil necks and giant suits and it was so hot. Gigantic suits.
I'm totally natural. Look like David Byrne.
I'm wearing a 52 large and now I weigh 160 pounds, but I'm telling you, I did nothing that, that two 90 I put on, but I know my head is three times the size of a normal man's i know that senator lupnick i have a huge jaw and forearms for no reason i love the callbacks it was representative but well it was your character i loved it well he became a senator you know he became i'm gonna run with it so you you did a lot of work before on MADtv, and you went to Amsterdam for two. Who went with you to Amsterdam? So I was there.
So there was a theater that a bunch of dudes in Chicago started. Because, like, Dutch comedy back in the day was very— Josh Myers, right? They loved it.
Yeah, Josh Myers was there. Seth Myers was there, and I kind of came in right after him.
But I was there brendan hunt who i don't know if you guys watched ted lasso he's coach coach oh yeah yeah oh yeah i love that guy 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 suda cakes jordan peele suda cakes was there uh Jordan Peele, Liz Kekowski, Kay Cannon, who directed me in Blackers,

Amber Ruffin. Just all these really, really funny people.
And it was a really fun time, too, because it was before 9-11, you know what I mean? It wasn't the Euro yet. It was the Gilder.
Yeah. So it was really nice.
And I still talk to a lot of the sex workers I befriended while I was there. We still keep in touch.
Sex workers. Okay.
A Dutch accent is tricky. But the Myers brothers, Josh and Seth, didn't they live there in high school or something? They have a big affinity for it.
they just they just really like josh kind of

went native for a while and uh dated like a dutch woman for a long time and yeah the dutch people

as a people they're very like reserved they're very but they're very honest like they're they

would come up to you after the show and be like uh i did not think you were the funniest one i

thought your black friend was funnier but um the woman the was very good as well. So congratulations and goodbye.
And you're like, thank you. If I had a dollar for every time my wife said that, because she's half Dutch.
Her dad was Dutch. And she says, I listened to the podcast and Ike was a terrific guest.
You were not at a 10. You were a little bit late there.
I don't know why you were late. The representative Lutnak comeback was very entertaining.
I'll see you at dinner time, bitch. I go, bitch, why do you have to say bitch? That's not, that's unacceptable.
LinkedIn is something we've all heard about, Dana. You've heard about, I've heard about it.

What applies though, Dana? Terms and conditions. so when did you um start feeling like just either as a kid or high school like i think i i should do this i'm good at this because on your oikipedia page it said considered to be a lawyer or a politician okay yeah grown up okay yeah grown up in chicago i mean my my my goal was representative luck nick when i was a child but as i But as I got older, I went to college and I knew I didn't want to be in politics.
I was a terrible student in college. And I kind of eventually got kicked out of college because I stopped going to class.
And I was drawn to acting and I was drawn to comedy, but I didn't know where to start and my dad took us to see uh the improv olympics I think like their 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 uh Amy Poehler and specifically the person who made me laugh so hard that i was like i need to do this was tim meadows like he is to me like one of just the funniest people in the world and and watching him on stage just kind of enter a scene and make a random joke it got such a big laugh i was like i'm signing up for improv classes i gotta do so that was it to do that. So I was like 18 at the time, and 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 there? Oh, that was my first break, yeah.
I got Mad TV, I was probably 25-ish. Yeah, okay.
Wow. And it was great.
I was making that that late night money which when you're broke you're like uh 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 yes you know acting yeah but you're on a job you worked with del close that was farley's guy he used about a lot. Yeah, man.
Oh, yeah. I hung out with Farley a couple times.
Oh, good. I got to meet him a couple times.
And he was like my idol, you know? Like, I loved him so much. And I remember one time he came.
I was a busboy at Second City. And I remember he would come in once in a while and he was always so nice he was midwest nice in midwest wisconsin nice wisconsin nice and one night he came up to me was like hey you know where uh where johnny is you know his brother john yeah and i was like oh yeah he's he was actually he's at this party uh i'm lincoln and he's like you you want to go? Can you take me there? And I'll like, oh, yeah, he's he was actually he's at this party.
I'm Lincoln. He's like, you want to go? Can you take me there?

I'll never forget.

So he says that. Go ahead.
Go ahead. Finish this story.

Turn to my friend, my buddy, Brian, from high school. It's like, hey, do you I quit?

Can you take me and Chris Farley to this party? He was like, what?

And we went there and we were,

I remember we parked and we're walking right under the L tracks,

train tracks.

And Chris is like, I gotta, 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, want to play swords, you know,

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 of on my foot he goes i cut your foot off so so what i remember laughing so hard i couldn't like i couldn't metabolize david you knew chris well does did you ever sword fight with him? Story checks out. Did you guys sword fight? But yes, that sounds like classic buffoonery.
I think, 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, and I think we're going to show them Tommy boy this weekend.
Oh, okay. It anniversary i heard oof uh maybe 20 that's a bummer when you i think i heard it's the 15th actually it just came out y'all i would never say anything higher than 15 that sounds sickening i don't know i can't believe i've been around 30 years do anything like oh gross you look you look really good though man like you're really hanging Like it's a lot of people, like they get smashed by the wall, but you're looking good.
Unbelievable. Look at this.
Thank you, buddy. Look at this shit.
You're welcome, man. I got my new sweater on.
I'm trying to zhuzh it up for you. Yeah, 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 kids. I hope, yeah.
It is. I'll probably just hit a quick fast-forward on the scene where you're Oh, that's right.
That's a short scene. You know, sometimes they take that out 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. So some people never see that part.
Yeah, if you're watching it on TBS, that's not in there, but we're going to go ahead and pay the Apple TV buy and purchase you'll probably be getting a little check in the mail you're welcome it's not a competition but if something doesn't work out or it doesn't quite fly you pop in one 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 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.
Let's put in. I have been pitched Tommy Boy 2, and I'm telling you, I always go, you have heard the news about Farley.
And they're like, yeah, but it would still, and I'm like, it would still be what? Can't do it without Chris. It would still be what? 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. Do they push back at the co-star who knew Chris better than anybody? I said, well, I can't do it.
You can get someone else. Yeah, psych.
I think it's a prequel where you go back to the founding of Callahan Autopilot. Oh, okay.
And you have basically someone playing like young Brian Dennehy. You go way back.
You go way back. Yeah, so this is way before Chris.
So really what you're looking for. Instead of looking for a modern day Chris Farley,

which is impossible,

you find a modern day Brian Denny.

A young Brian Denny.

Which I think is doable.

I think that is doable.

That's interesting because looking at all your stuff,

you're a writer.

Right.

A real writer, not a comedian who hogging in the room.

Not some bullshit.

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

Now, how do you say it, Dana?

Now, I'd say that's the best pitch that I've heard for a Tommy Boy sequel.

You slap on an executive producer.

You do a cameo like Stallone in Staying Alive with Travolta.

And you do that little turn.

It's David Spade. Boom.
And then you walk. Yeah.
Boom, boom. So much booms coming.
That's all I mean. Do you like money? Do you like money? Do you like dollar bills? 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-nighter. Guess you don't like money.
Guess you don't like money. Well, do you want to go with me? Spade likes money.
Ah, Spade. Do you want

to do impressions of Joe Biden for the

Saudi royal family?

I don't. Well, that

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 putt.

My friend, you are going to go

home with this lion. Yes.
It will

fly with you on the plane. We kill you when I go back to the airport.
So we get it all back. The key to that is my friend.
you are going to go home with this lion. Yes.
It will fly with you on the plane. We kill you when we're back to the airport.

So we get it all back.

The key to that is my friend.

That's it.

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.

I just adopted this accent by watching too much Alabar C.

Too much.

All right,

go ahead.

Running, running point. Now.
There, I have heard it both ways, Ike. I think it's Running Point, and people say Running Point.
I thought it was the Mediocre Rascals. Wasn't that the name of it? That was the name we tried to get.
The Mediocre Rascals. I just thought it would be funny.
the little rascals own any rascal and eddie murphy would have a bone to pick yeah yeah yeah luckily we get involved uh 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 yeah because there is something when people go you're going to run point on this job or whatever on this client right so i call it running point and no one else does and i'm i call it what's the point no no no i was just gonna say okay i gotta put this in i'm gonna watch to watch it on Netflix. He thinks it's a VCR.
All right, pop it in. I'm from the 80s.
I mime it even if I'm clicking on digital. And you guys nailed it.
There's a genre of that kind of workplace, fun, single camera. And I honestly was thinking to myself last night I don't feel like

these people are acting

they're having fun

so whatever you

I mean you

you kind of

you're renewed

for a second season

we got

my sources

told me

we were picked up

for another season

but you do something

you're part of

putting it together

or is this

you're executive producer

with Mindy Cowan

yeah Mindy Mindy came to my partner, Dave Fasson, and I was like, you guys love basketball. We work together with the Mindy Project.
We have this show that I think could be a funny kind of family business show at a basketball club. And we loved her.
We had such a fun time working with her. 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 we kind of, it became very, very real when Kate Hudson was like, I want to play this part.
Because that was like, wow, that's a real no-fool-in movie star. Yeah, she's fantastic in it.
And you got Justin Thin theroux too who's just too cool for school of the show he's so cool friend of the show one of the my he's my best dressed friend he he does dress cool yeah yeah and it's just like i i if you i think he has clothes that are like all bespoke like little leather jackets that like are only made for him

can i throw something easy can i throw something about this has been a thing that i've taught we talked to justin about it i just have a thing that like he would be the perfect guide in a rod serling biopic oh my god he looks so much like him and he really does vibe but i don't it doesn't have to happen,

but I just,

yeah.

Picture if you will.

Picture if you will.

Like,

picture if you will. Picture if you will.
Picture if you will. He did Nightgall.
A tiny leather jacket. Picture if you will.
Dracker Cologne. Well, I love that he's so polite.
I can't think of the other stuff. Instead of think of this was the first thing think of this then he said picture if you will it's 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 marlon Brando's best friend, by the way.
They would like have sex with the same woman at the same time. They were like very famously like coxsmen together.
He was on that show, if I'm not mistaken. Aska Bros.
You know, Wally Cox was a. Eskabros.
Wally Cox was on. What did you say? Because I want to laugh.
Eskabros. Eskimo brothers.
But Wally Cox was the bottom left square when I was a kid on 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?

So,

Oh,

that's tremendous.

Smells like pussy in here.

I think.

Yeah.

Smells like that's a,

that was repeated.

But anyway,

back to your show Scared straight What So you get You get Goldie Hawn's daughter Katie Katie Hudson I think is tremendous Amazing And it's so much So's so much like, so fun, like stories of like her stories are so crazy, you know, like, Oh yeah. You know, it's my birthday and I was crazy.
Like Paul McCartney, you know, was there. And at one point he looked over to Barack Obama and told him this.
And I like when people tell you those stories, I'm like, what do I have? I'm like, oh, really? You're like, this was all a pizza hunt?

One time Bobby Lee and I went to Las Vegas together.

That's your story.

And we couldn't find his pubes.

Wow.

So he couldn't go on that night.

I've seen Bobby Lee naked more often than I've seen my own wife naked. So I've seen him naked three times.
Plot thickening. Bobby is hilarious.
He is one of the all-time funniest. He's got a very funny thing about him.
He's got a great burn. He acts real serious and just looks over.
I like when he stops. And he does the death stare.
In his podcast. And you know he's loaded up with something.
Every other comment is racist and he just stares at them. And he doesn't say anything.
Because I'm going to leave. No.
I think I'm going to take off. Yeah.
That's funny. Oh, by the way, Dana, on a side note, you don't have to listen.
When I was golfinging with love it's the other day 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 oh you're cutting out and i've never used it in real life before but it was good with love it's because he goes i take offense to that and i'm sorry about your attitude and then uh but it was funny to say he's cutting

out real life laughed at my own joke then laughed at his all right go ahead back to this guy 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 oh yeah they're mad at you Hey, you're cutting out.

You're cutting out on me.

It's not, what?

So the show's a smash. Show is picked up, which is good sign.
I thought you're in it a little bit or where are you as an actor? No, I'm not in it. 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. I saw him.
So maybe you saw him. The attorney on jury duty.
Yeah. The judge.
He played the judge on jury duty. And he always wanted to be in show business.
You get in show business. Now he's in show business.
I got a Nepo dad. And he has a good spot.
That's cool. A reverse.
I've never heard of that. 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.
They're fine. But Nepo dad.
A necessary evil. Everyone can get behind a Nepo dad.
Yeah, let them have fun. Yeah, what are you going to do? And by the way, who I think has a shit ton of charisma is chad hanks oh my god that's something else someone says to me it's like i can't believe chad hanks is such a good actor i'm like his dad is tom hanks that's yeah of course the apple ain't gonna fall that far from the tree if he's half as good he's gonna get a couple osc on Even if he only got three Oscars, that would be good Yeah, yeah I only have two Best original score for the Brutalist Did you do that peppy tune? I did it I did all of my little Casio keyboard I saw Ignora last night Because I had not seen it again with Ignora.
I loved Ignora. What was the real name of it? What's it called? Ignora.
Pardon me. No disrespect.
Ignora is some disrespect, by the way. No, I only saw Dune 2 and Conclave of the nominees How many have you seen?

I loved Conclave

I loved Dune 2

I loved Enora

And I loved The Brutalist

And I think that's all I saw

Will you watch The Brutalist again?

Never

Never

It's very long

It's the feel-bad movie this summer

Yeah, it's really It's brutal But I really did think it was cool Was Dune 2 with the Popes? No, the Popes were They had to get a new Pope So they sequester him Not unlike a jury They put them all in this big room in the Vatican And And there's a Game of Thrones. He can't be Pope.

Visit roberthalf.com today. Can I ask you a question, Ike? Because you are our guest.
Sometimes, one time the guest just clicked out. I've had enough.
You're kind of a movie fan because, well, one thing is you must be, I don't know if your IQ has been tested, but I saw it. I mean, come on.
You've won twice. Look at this shit.
With Jeopardy, a million dollars, Celebrity Jeopardy. He won Jeopardy twice.
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune or, no, wait. Celebrity who wants to be a million.
Another million, played with your dad. Yes, yes.
And then you win this one of them by referring to a obscure quote in Eyes Wide Shut or a reference in Eyes Wide Shut. Stanley Kubrick.
Yes. Yes.
Tell that story. So I went on Celebrity Jeopardy.
I won it. I got the trophy right there.
Did you go against Mindy? No, I went against, who did I play? I playedalen rose i played uh constance woo i played uh uh simu lu i played um uh uh shang chi uh all right wait a second it sounds like it's a stacked over here yeah yeah yeah go ahead uh uh i played um hold on someone else these are the people you smoked i've been in Celebrity Jeopardy, I went up against Patton, who's a real smarty pants. Patton Oswalt.
Oh, Patton Oswalt. Yeah, yeah.
He's a definite pop culture. Yeah, he loves that.
And then also Will Wheaton, who you might remember from Stand By Me, Star Trek. Yeah.
Yeah. He still gets stand by me.

He still gets stand by me.

Next gen.

Okay.

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,

I'm going to throw you in the real first time.

And I just, it was like a fate of cop that I wasn't gonna win so i was just gonna 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 like, oh shit. I only know like one or two.
And then 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, they're at Sidney Pollack's party and Nicole came in that really creepy European guy is like, hello, how are you doing? Have you ever read Ovid on the Art of Love? And I was like oh, Ovid, maybe it's Ovid and so I credit Stanley Kubrick How many times had you seen that movie? I've seen a lot. I watch it with the family.
We watch it once a week. With the kids? Every Saturday with the kids, we watch it.
We want them to understand that there is an Illuminati out there who are having secret sex parties. Do you have other Kubrick movies that you like? There's a Moon Landing.
moon landing the JFK he supposedly filmed it Dana that was Oliver Stone oh he filmed the moon I see okay you got it you got um I I have been in a bit of a Barry Lyndon phase uh really really I don't know the last time you said it was I have I remember seeing it when it when I was young and I was like, it's so long. But now when you watch it, it's it's it's hilarious, first of all.
And it's so beautiful. And Ryan O'Neill really was a really great actor.
I had the same thing that the standard was so high in the 70s with Kubrick and other movies that I saw it, didn't get it. So it in the theater.
I watched it a year ago by myself, just said, fuck it. I'm going to go revisit it.
And 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 got the whole thing. And 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 the atmospherically you are completely submerged oh my god into it and the the cinematography is you know so anyway david it's also very sexy and let's see, do you guys mind if we watch a couple hours of it real quick? We always talk about movies at some point.
And I always say, if you could only watch one movie tonight, you had to watch a movie tonight by yourself, Ike. What pops into your head? Yeah, this is different than my favorite movie, right? Just, yeah, not me.
But what would you watch tonight? Tonight, if I was going to watch something, I would watch Idiocracy. Oh, wow.
Workplace comedy with Mike Judge, the director. Workplace comedy with Mike Judge.
I was just watching a little of it on a flight last week.

And not drug-idia parallels to the present, of course, but it is such a funny movie.

And every time I watch it, it gets funnier and funnier.

I would watch the Bridget Remagen, World War II movie from the 70s.

That's what I would watch. What's it called? What's it called? The Bridget Remagen or War II movie from the 70s That's what I would watch What's it called? The Bridget Remagen or Remagen? No, I'm kidding, you don't have to watch that But I want to do it I like The Longest Day If you like World War II movies That is a great movie, The Longest Day But if you haven't seen God rest his soul, Gene, Gene Hackman, if you haven't seen the firm, you've seen it, right? Oh yeah.
Yeah. He's great at that.
And that whole movie is fantastic. That movie is really great.
Like for like a legal thriller, that's a great movie. And he's unbelievable.
Is Denzel in that? No, that's the Pelican Brief. That's his next movie.
David, what would you, what would you watch? And don't say Tommy Boyd Don't say Tommy Boyd Don't say Opportunity Knocks Josie and the Pussycats All the classics No, I don't Dave's not a movie guy When I get on a movie When I get on a flight I have to have a TV in the back of that chair And it just kills time It's so great So when I get on a flight, I try to, I have to have a TV in the back of that chair.

And it just kills time. It's so great.
So when I'm on a flight, they have new release. 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.
Just shouting out. Legally, I don't think they can.
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 that Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt.
Oh, Edge of Tomorrow? Edge of Tomorrow. Oh, yeah.
That's a cool one. I like that movie.
I like science fiction. You got another thumbs up.
Hey, Dana, can I tell you something about Opportunity Knox? I saw that movie opening night. Love it.
And a kid I went to school with, elementary school, was one of the karate kids who beats you up. Oh, really? Because you shot that movie.
Yeah, Josh Livingston. I don't know if you remember him.
In Chicago. In Chicago, yeah.
So I saw that movie opening weekend, baby. 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.
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 forties or early fifties. And I'm just talking to them at lunch and whatever.
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 silly romantic comedy.
And I didn't know till later I was talking to Del Close. He had no, he didn't never kind of go, well, you know what? I, I kind of started improv in Chicago.

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, the directors would call him.

He's teaching.

And he was also like, you know, a heroin addict for a long time.

He wasn't like, he wasn't like, he didn't have heroin addict for a long time.

He wasn't like, he wasn't like, he didn't have his shit together, so to speak.

But he was a really fascinating guy.

And I learned a lot from him.

And 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 Murray told me.

He was just like very like, he was a Murray told me. He was just like very like.

Yeah, he was cool.

Mike Myers always would refer to it.

Close, you know, just so.

Mike was big.

Yeah.

Yeah.

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 they're coming after him.

Yeah. Well, I did Elon Musk for 28 seconds on that show and, and, uh, got a, got a little chatter from him.
So now Mike's doing this sort of Monty Python ask avant-garde version. It's really funny.
He's running, he's turning, he turns himself off. He's like, um, but yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll have him on tomorrow to discuss his- Yeah, and if you guys could shelter him,

that would be nice because he's going to need help.

We will-

Remember shelter in place during the pandemic?

Shelter in place immediately.

Do you remember the pandemic?

Wherever you are, shelter.

Do you mean the plandemic?

Yeah.

Let's look at a clip.

Can I bring up a video of Anthony Fauci that I made?

It's a jib jab where he kind of admits the whole thing with jokes. It's a jib jab a jib jab you know my anthony fauci bit i know i told you if you had two shots i just do this guy for him you'd be dancing in the streets 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.
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.
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. Let me get you in this LeSabre.
From the bottom of my all new leather Fauci's, go fuck yourself. I just did that for myself.
You are a great audience, Ike. You must be fun in the writer's room.
And you're a great writer. I have a serious question for Ike before we get rid of him.
You were shooting the movie Blockers, which I think I just met your director recently. Oh, Kay Cannon.
He's also friends with Theo. Wait, Kay Cannon directed Blockers.
That's a lady. Maybe he wrote it or did you write it? Oh, yeah.
no there were there were other writers there was okay it's one of the 40 people yeah so yeah exactly he's friends with theo uh pretending to be part of the film blockers and he was on the set and uh but it says because i have a bad neck and you fucking did a stunt you hurt your oh yeah God, that's the worst on a movie too yeah it was a bummer um you know what dick joke were you doing where you fell it was a i was trying to suck my own it was like it was an improv guys let me one take keep the cameras going yeah it happens take of the thing it was, right when it happened, you kind of don't even realize what's happening until before you know it, you have a doctor being like, hey, you fucked up your neck. Oh.
And so I was really bummed, you know, but luckily, like, I really took the, 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 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 Luriquette on Night Court.

It's like a funny, it's a funny bit.

Because most of the time it's like nine times out of 10 when someone's wearing a neck brace they were rear-ended and and but this one it was a more involved one that was like had braces and buckles oh no yeah that was rough that was really rough because like i would see friends of mine 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 they feel for you and like they feel for you which is nice but you're also like i don't want to can't tell this fucking story i don't want to talk about it yeah i don't i don't want to talk you can tell us though so yeah so no it was it was a bummer but it it really uh i every morning i would wake up and they were like you gotta do your you've got to correct, which is basically if you, if you shrug your shoulders and put your arms up and then drop your arms, that feels crazy. Right.
But yeah, I mean, that's your proper posture. 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 to hold it 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 can do the full brady but full brady bunch mobility yeah can you crack your back just by yourself standing up 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 you should not be you shouldn't be cracking and popping i've seen those chiropractors on tiktok but most of the time the people fart on the ones i get but yeah those are funny well i get ones for dogs where it'll be like a guy who takes like a 140 pound pit bull and he's like, and you hear like a bomb go off and the dog is like. Oh, dogs are not used to getting cracked.
It's so weird. And then the dog's happy though and runs away smiling.
Is that, because I saw one of those. They don't know if they're happy.
I think that there's an owner holding a piece of bacon on camera. I don't buy it.
I saw him do it to a gerbil. He's like this.
And the gerbil's like, I was fine. By the way, who's complaining? I did it to a red ant.
I was like, can you cut him in half accidentally? And the ant was like. He's like, it's more my thorax.
Luckily, I can regenerate. It's more my thorax.
