Therapy can help you take stock of your progress and set achievable goals for the next six months.
0
SPEAKER_00
Listen, therapy is the way to go.
0
SPEAKER_00
I did it for a while.
0
SPEAKER_00
And I think the thing that slowed me down was what they, is driving to Santa Monica in traffic once or twice a week.
0
SPEAKER_00
This is online.

SPEAKER_00

0
SPEAKER_00

0
SPEAKER_00
You can probably always sharpen it.
0
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, I mean, I had a therapist in Portland and I would commute and that was a pain.
0
SPEAKER_00
That s a long drive.
0
SPEAKER_02
I know it was 1300 miles one way, but you know, it s good therapist.
0
SPEAKER_02
But yeah, this one you can mix and match and your thoughts kind of control you and you want to master them.
0
SPEAKER_02

Dana, this week is Chevy Chase.
0
SPEAKER_00
Chevy Chase, the Chevy Chase.
0
SPEAKER_00
And you gotta give it up for such an old school OG.
0
SPEAKER_00
First year, only did one year, a lot of people don t know that because he was such a powerhouse.
0
SPEAKER_02
He exploded.
0
SPEAKER_00
Crushed it.
0
SPEAKER_00
Tall, good looking, funny, Goldie Hawns.
0
SPEAKER_00
That s just a combo you don t see a lot, you know?
0
SPEAKER_02
Yes, and so he s got all that credit.
0
SPEAKER_02
And so when he came in, I knew that his sense of humor, because he had hosted SNL, and he s been very sweet to me over the years, but I knew he likes to say the inappropriate thing.
0
SPEAKER_02
And so he started doing it.
0
SPEAKER_02
So this is not for the faint of heart, this episode.
0
SPEAKER_02
I think it s really funny.
0
SPEAKER_02
Chevy was in full funny form.
0
SPEAKER_02
And so we just all really, really laughed.
0
SPEAKER_02
And his wife, Janie, was there, and his daughter, Kaylee.
0
SPEAKER_02
So I think it ended up being a really good experience for him.
0
SPEAKER_00
It s one of the more interesting ones because it is chaotic.
0
SPEAKER_00
He s jumping around.
0
SPEAKER_00
It s just like no one was here.
0
SPEAKER_00
We were just laughing at dinner, just saying stupid things.
0
SPEAKER_00
Some was a little off color and crazy, but remember it is in the spirit of just we re trying to make each other laugh and be funny.
0
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, once I knew that he just wants to say the inappropriate thing with his timing, it s perfect.
0
SPEAKER_02
It s like so wrong, it s right.
0
SPEAKER_02
I just started laughing.
0
SPEAKER_02
And that s what made him famous, and that s what s good.
0
SPEAKER_02
And Heather.
0
SPEAKER_02
We all had a good time.
0
SPEAKER_02
We all laughed our ass off, and I think he had a great time.
0
SPEAKER_00
So if you want to hear one of the OGs, stay tuned.

Oh, that guy.
0
SPEAKER_02
That guy, McCartney.
0
SPEAKER_02
I just wanted to see if you remember what Whitney said.
0
SPEAKER_02
So McCartney s kind of sheepishly plays a song that is not out, he just recorded it and he plays it for us and we re listening to his song and then it ends and there s a pause and Whitney said, just like this, reminds me of Julian Lennon.
0
SPEAKER_02
And Paul never forgot it.
0
SPEAKER_00
That s one of you.
0
SPEAKER_00
Julian!
0
SPEAKER_02
Julian Lennon!

SPEAKER_02
To say that to Paul, that s all I got.
0
SPEAKER_00
Is there Kleenex or something in here?
0
SPEAKER_00
What is this thing?
0
SPEAKER_00
That s supposed to be the name of the thing.
0
SPEAKER_00
Would you like a Tic Tac?

0
SPEAKER_00

0
SPEAKER_00

1
SPEAKER_01

1
SPEAKER_01

1
SPEAKER_01
That s a tough one.
1
SPEAKER_01

1
SPEAKER_01
It was a Ray hour.
1
SPEAKER_02
Look, we can get you a cocktail if it ll make you... I would mention Foster Brooks if our crowd wasn t five to seven year olds.

1
SPEAKER_02
Remember Foster Brooks?
1
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, that s why I don t, I try not to do those questions.
1
SPEAKER_00
Did he die or is many of him alive?
1
SPEAKER_00
What?
1
SPEAKER_02
He died of fake alcoholism.
1
SPEAKER_01
He s with Walt Disney.
1
SPEAKER_01
They froze him and took his head and put it in a tomb.
1
SPEAKER_02
So that National Lampoon radio hour, is that, because I didn t even know about that, but a lot of people came on to SNL from that.
1
SPEAKER_00
That was O Donoghue s thing.
1
SPEAKER_00
I mean, Michael O Donoghue.
1
SPEAKER_00
Who wound up being a writer on SNL.
1
SPEAKER_00
Listen, the most incredible guy, really funny.
1
SPEAKER_00
He was just the best writer in the world.
1
SPEAKER_01
Oh, he s mentioned a lot on this podcast, but it s interesting to hear you.
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh yeah, no, he was.
1
SPEAKER_00
In fact,
1
SPEAKER_00
He was a little bit fastidious.
1
SPEAKER_00
He had in his tiny office, you remember the offices.
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh yeah, just like college dorms.
1
SPEAKER_01
Excuse me.
1
SPEAKER_02

1
SPEAKER_00
Just because I have it.
1
SPEAKER_00
No, wait, on this wall, on his corkboard, he d have ideas.
1
SPEAKER_00
And he was very, as I say, in caps, each little thing he d do.
1
SPEAKER_00
And I d go in there when he...
1
SPEAKER_00
when he wasn t in there and just move those things just about an inch to the right.
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh no, he doesn t like that.
1
SPEAKER_01
That sounds like... College shenanigans.
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_01
So you started as a writer, so you had Michael, who else was writing with you when he first, you know, Lorne.
1
SPEAKER_00
Lorne.
1
SPEAKER_00
Thank you.
1
SPEAKER_00
That s it.
1
SPEAKER_00
No.
1
SPEAKER_01
Well, yeah.
1
SPEAKER_00
Dare I say Alan Zweibel, who never wrote anything.
1
SPEAKER_00
What?
1
SPEAKER_00
Danny.
1
SPEAKER_00
Danny Ackroyd.
1
SPEAKER_00
Well, Danny, yeah.
1
SPEAKER_01
Oh, of course.
1
SPEAKER_01
And Al Franken and Tom Davis were there then in the beginning.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m afraid so.
1
SPEAKER_01
Did you kind of put that writing staff together with Lorne, kind of?
1
SPEAKER_00
No, I just did it.
1
SPEAKER_00
Not Lorne.
1
SPEAKER_00
No.
1
SPEAKER_00
So Zweibel didn t write anything.
1
SPEAKER_00
All Lorne did was pay me big.
1
SPEAKER_02
Well you were in this national radio hour with a couple of these guys and so Lorne kind of went there to pluck some of those writers and performers off of that.
1
SPEAKER_02
It was radio sketches, is that what it was?
1
SPEAKER_00
What s the question?
1
SPEAKER_00
What was the radio hour?
1
SPEAKER_00
Were you guys doing bits or what were you doing?
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh yeah, very funny shit.
1
SPEAKER_00
And let s see, Billy Murray was on it.
1
SPEAKER_00
And then like, I think he killed somebody.
1
SPEAKER_00
And then, right.
1
SPEAKER_00
You know Billy Murray, don t you?
1
SPEAKER_01
Oh yeah, he s an Irish, you wouldn t wanna, yeah, he s a tough guy.
1
SPEAKER_00
An Irish guy, yeah.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, he s- I saw him take somebody by their feet and slam them on the floor, no, okay.
1
SPEAKER_01
Anyway- How did Martin Short take that?
1
SPEAKER_00
Right, exactly.
1
SPEAKER_00
He s wily too.
1
SPEAKER_00
I have to say I love him, but he s a strange fellow, Billy.
1
SPEAKER_01
You guys were magic together.
1
SPEAKER_01
We ll talk about that later.
1
SPEAKER_01
That s right.
1
SPEAKER_00
And catty chat.

1
SPEAKER_01
Well, you re just always practicing your art.
1
SPEAKER_02
No, that was a good one, actually.
1
SPEAKER_01
You were that way when I met you in 86.
1
SPEAKER_01
You would just do, I remember you trying to put a pizza box into a little garbage can.
1
SPEAKER_01
No one was watching, and I go, he s doing Buster Keaton.
1
SPEAKER_01
You couldn t put it in, you folded it, you looked around.
1
SPEAKER_01
I mean, it s really interesting.
1
SPEAKER_01
I was watching you work.
1
SPEAKER_01
It makes sense.
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, that you re just always practicing.
1
SPEAKER_02
Yes, I heard a story.
1
SPEAKER_02
Is this true?
1
SPEAKER_02
When you met Goldie Hawn at Paramount, she had a crocheted handbag on.
1
SPEAKER_02
And when you walked in, you didn t say hi.
1
SPEAKER_02
You just went up and put your hand under the bag and said, cough, please.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yes.
1
SPEAKER_01
That is true.
1
SPEAKER_01
Janie s going.
1
SPEAKER_01
Isn t that hilarious?
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_01
Oh, Janie s here, Chevy s wife.
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, we just had dinner with Goldie.
1
SPEAKER_02
That s right.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, she just reminded me.
1
SPEAKER_02
Isn t that funny?
1
SPEAKER_00
But I just said, cough, not cough, please.
1
SPEAKER_02
Yes, you know what, you re right.
1
SPEAKER_00
You see the difference?
1
SPEAKER_01
The timing, cough.
1
SPEAKER_01
I ll just talk to him then.
1
SPEAKER_01
No, you know what, it s true.
1
SPEAKER_01
You have a choice.
1
SPEAKER_02
She said it was cough, and I added please to help the crowd at home.
1
SPEAKER_01
I know, and that s so nice.
1
SPEAKER_02
You know, you did it right, and I should not tweak it, 100%.
1
SPEAKER_01
So when you first met Goldie, like you re gonna do a movie with her, did you just know right away the chemistry?
1
SPEAKER_01
Foul Play was the first one, right?
1
SPEAKER_01
Is that the first time you met her?
1
SPEAKER_01
Borked her.
1
SPEAKER_00
Anyway, I m sorry, what was that?
1
SPEAKER_00
Let s roll a clip.
1
SPEAKER_00
We have editing capability.
1
SPEAKER_00
Don t worry.
1
SPEAKER_00
Okay, and the question was... Did you... He s backing up.
1
SPEAKER_00
I know you re kidding.
1
SPEAKER_01
I don t know, I m interested in the people you met in the 70s that kind of just immediately impressed you.
1
SPEAKER_00
Obviously... Yeah, she was beautiful.
1
SPEAKER_00
Charming, funny.
1
SPEAKER_00
Charming.
1
SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_00
Sort of funny.
1
SPEAKER_00
We just had dinner with her recently.
1
SPEAKER_00
She s dead now.
1
SPEAKER_00
Was it because it was something she ate?
1
SPEAKER_00
No, she looks the same.
1
SPEAKER_00
It s amazing.
1
SPEAKER_00
This is many years later.
1
SPEAKER_00
She looks great and seems great.
1
SPEAKER_01
She was the bubbly sort of airhead on Laugh-In and then she became this big movie star and movie producer.
1
SPEAKER_00
And now she knows half the alphabet.
1
SPEAKER_01
I don t know, I m either punchy or everything you say is killing me.
1
SPEAKER_01
So you go to what, foul play, which is already sick of it.

1
SPEAKER_01
Who was more talented?
1
SPEAKER_01
Dan Aykroyd?
1
SPEAKER_01
Take anybody.
1
SPEAKER_00
Goldie Hawn.
1
SPEAKER_00
No, Danny was the resident genius, I like to say, of SNL.
1
SPEAKER_00
And when I say that, I think of Danny
1
SPEAKER_00
like holding a painting, just sitting like off to the stage right or something, the painting, and talking about it.
1
SPEAKER_00
And really beautiful, you know, everything in it is great.
1
SPEAKER_00
Look at the rock and the way the trees are, and there s a naked woman in the middle of it, and he never mentions her.
1
SPEAKER_00
So he s, you know, like this and that, and you re just going.
1
SPEAKER_00
I mean, he s, I just, by the way, did a picture with him a few weeks ago up in Canada.
1
SPEAKER_00
He s great, he s the best.
1
SPEAKER_01
There s something about him, he s so likeable.
1
SPEAKER_00
Naturally funny and doesn t try, you know, he s just naturally funny.
1
SPEAKER_00
We had Phil Hartman.
1
SPEAKER_00
Unlike yourselves.
1
SPEAKER_00
Was sort of a doublinger.
1
SPEAKER_00
I try hard.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m sorry, what did I say?
1
SPEAKER_01
I love it.
1
SPEAKER_01
We had Phil Hartman was kind of like that.
1
SPEAKER_01
He would get into the specs of an Everett motor way more than show business, and his plane, and his boat, and just a hobbyist.
1
SPEAKER_00
I miss him, you know.
1
SPEAKER_00
He was great, Phil.
1
SPEAKER_02
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_01
What did he die of?
1
SPEAKER_02

1
SPEAKER_01
It s a long story, we ll save that for part two.
1
SPEAKER_02
Bullets?
1
SPEAKER_02
Love.
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh boy, you re right, I forgot.
1
SPEAKER_00
Heavens to Betsy.
1
SPEAKER_00
That was a rough one.
1
SPEAKER_01
So Danny s the genius, Michael s the best writer, and you re friends with Paul Simon, he s pretty good.
1
SPEAKER_00
Paul.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, Paul Simon.
1
SPEAKER_00
The shorter one.
1
SPEAKER_00
I don t know how he s coming up with it.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_02
He s doing a Stuart Little on the show.
1
SPEAKER_02
But that first year, you re loaded up.

SPEAKER_02
No, you have to answer one question this hour.
2
SPEAKER_03
That s merch, guys.
2
SPEAKER_03

2
SPEAKER_04
Chevy held his hat over his eyes and pretended that then David was revealed.
2
SPEAKER_04

2
SPEAKER_04
I think it s funny.
2
SPEAKER_04
I thought this was being filmed.
2
SPEAKER_04
We re filming it and it s going to be a Broadway show.
2
SPEAKER_04
Unfortunately, you re being played by Jon Hamm.

SPEAKER_01
On an Apple box.

And when that movie, I told Lorne that, it s gotten shinier and brighter.
2
SPEAKER_04
He what?
2
SPEAKER_04
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_04
Well, you know, it was, it was a hit, but then now it s like a cult thing.

2
SPEAKER_04
Have you noticed that?
2
SPEAKER_04
Just those type of just funny.
2
SPEAKER_04

2
SPEAKER_04
What do you think of Martin Short?
2
SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_04
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_04
Is that some kind of- That s how big his dick is.
2
SPEAKER_03
That s all I can say.
2
SPEAKER_03
Well, it s three guys, different senses of humor, jammed in a movie.
2
SPEAKER_03
It s gotta take some finessing to make it work.
2
SPEAKER_03
It worked great.
2
SPEAKER_04
It was amazing.
2
SPEAKER_04
Remember your chapstick moment that was on the horse?
2
SPEAKER_04
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_04
You made such- That was winged.
2
SPEAKER_03
Oh, for sure.
2
SPEAKER_01
You could tell.
2
SPEAKER_01
For sure.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_01
Versus, what, Marty has sand coming out of his mouth?
2
SPEAKER_04
Yes, yes.
2
SPEAKER_04
He spits the sand.
2
SPEAKER_04
I don t know what Steve had.
2
SPEAKER_04

2
SPEAKER_04
His water was gone or something.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_04
And then I m there like... Yeah, you re showering.
2
SPEAKER_04
My horse.
2
SPEAKER_04
It s hideous.
2
SPEAKER_04
Yeah, it s great.
2
SPEAKER_04
Like a silent film.
2
SPEAKER_01
I love that scene.
2
SPEAKER_01
But I think one of my favorite things is...
2
SPEAKER_01
Do you have anything besides Mexican food?
2
SPEAKER_01
In the restaurant in Santa Poco, where the fuck were you?
2
SPEAKER_03
Where were you?
2
SPEAKER_03
Where did you shoot it?
2
SPEAKER_03
In Mexico?
2
SPEAKER_03
I don t know.
2
SPEAKER_03
Mexico.
2
SPEAKER_01
Arizona?
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, in Arizona.
2
SPEAKER_03
No, New Mexico.
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, thank God.
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, there you are.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_01
Only you would know that, sweetie.
2
SPEAKER_01
My wife, Jadie Chase.
2
SPEAKER_03
We re turning it into the interview with her, because she s- It s fun to- We haven t had a scion here who can speak truth to power about everything.
2
SPEAKER_04
I remember Loren saying, I think it was John Landis, he was frustrated with the cut, and he always refers to comedians as the monkeys.
2
SPEAKER_04
It s great to shoot all the townspeople, but you should really spend some time on the monkeys.
2
SPEAKER_04
And that was you three.
2
SPEAKER_04
But he says that to all of us.
2
SPEAKER_04
Oh.
2
SPEAKER_04
We re the monkeys.
2
SPEAKER_04
Here s something that Lorne said.
2
SPEAKER_04
Lorne said monkeys.
2
SPEAKER_04
Did Lorne ever say this to you, Chevy?
2
SPEAKER_04
Because Lorne has a way of like taking big issues and making them, you said about funny people and there s funny people.
2
SPEAKER_04
And he says, there s only 900 of us on the planet.
2
SPEAKER_04
And it was such a perfect- 900.
2
SPEAKER_04
I know, it was such a funny specific number that I kind of went, did he figure it out?
2
SPEAKER_04
There s three in Portugal, there s seven in- Less in Russia.
2
SPEAKER_04
Ukraine has made me a mime now because the president is a monkey.
2
SPEAKER_04
That s right.
2
SPEAKER_04
You mean a comedian?
2
SPEAKER_04
Right.
2
SPEAKER_04
Okay, sorry.
2
SPEAKER_04
We love Lorne.
2
SPEAKER_04
I don t want to do anymore.
2
SPEAKER_04
You re too funny.
2
SPEAKER_04
No, you re making me funny because you re funny.
2
SPEAKER_01
He s unpleasant, but you re funny.
2
SPEAKER_01
I know my place.
2
SPEAKER_04
Well, I m going to write that down.
2
SPEAKER_04
You re funny, on a t-shirt, the cock one, and... David s unpleasant.
2
SPEAKER_00
Knowing how to speak and understand a new language can be an invaluable tool when traveling, meeting new friends, or just even to master a new skill.
2
SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_03
Did you meet Lorne in line at a Monty Python movie?
2
SPEAKER_03
If so, which one?
2
Good.
2
SPEAKER_01
I did.
2
SPEAKER_01
Would you suck your straw again that way?
2
SPEAKER_01
I know.
2
SPEAKER_01
I m trying to get everyone worked up.
2
SPEAKER_04
Because Chevy s not wearing any pants.
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, shit, you re right.
2
SPEAKER_03
Was it Holy Grail?
2
SPEAKER_01
Yes.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, it was.
2
SPEAKER_01
And I remember Lorne.
2
SPEAKER_01
Can I cut in?
2
SPEAKER_01
Actually, I don t remember him, I m sorry.
2
SPEAKER_01
Did he cut in line or did you actually?
2
SPEAKER_01
Did you plan that ahead of time or did it happen live in real time?
2
SPEAKER_01
See, that s me.
2
SPEAKER_01
I remember Lorde.
2
SPEAKER_01
That s why you guys never got this far.
2
SPEAKER_04
No.
2
SPEAKER_04
We didn t.
2
SPEAKER_04
Wait!
2
SPEAKER_04
I looked at your 19 hit movies and your Academy Award.
2
SPEAKER_01
I cannot argue that.
2
SPEAKER_04
We cannot argue your IMBD, is that what they call it?
2
SPEAKER_04
You are legendary, and I told him when we came through the door that it was... Does this bother you?
2
SPEAKER_04
Chevy has his face now on the side of the mic.
2
SPEAKER_04
He s doing a handstand.
2
SPEAKER_04
I m loving this.
2
SPEAKER_04
Hosted SNL eight times and had four vacation movies discussed.
2
SPEAKER_04
I did not host it eight times.
2
SPEAKER_04
You didn t?
2
SPEAKER_04

2
SPEAKER_04
Five.
2
SPEAKER_04
Five?
2
SPEAKER_01
You re the five?
2
SPEAKER_01
No, I ll tell you why.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
2
SPEAKER_01
Because Lorne, that prick.
2
SPEAKER_01
Lorne, I needed to host it.
2
SPEAKER_01
I had an
3
SPEAKER_00
been seen much and you know, I was getting closer to death.
3
SPEAKER_00
Sure.
3
SPEAKER_00
Are you alive?
3
No.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s a hologram.
3
SPEAKER_00
I asked him, he said, Chevy, you ve hosted it five times.
3
SPEAKER_00
Like that s enough.
3
SPEAKER_00
Well, fuck you and your big mouth.
3
SPEAKER_00
I mean, what, you know, come on.
3
SPEAKER_00
I could have hosted it six.
3
SPEAKER_01
Keep going, yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
And you stalled out at five?
3
SPEAKER_01
That was it.
3
SPEAKER_01
And now you re in the five timers club.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yep.
3
SPEAKER_01
I ve only hosted it three, David?
3
SPEAKER_01
Two.
3
SPEAKER_01
Two.
3
SPEAKER_01
There s no club for us.
3
SPEAKER_01
Well, that s five together, if you do together.
3
SPEAKER_01
Okay, we should come together.
3
SPEAKER_01
That ll be the next shtick.
3
SPEAKER_01
Coming together.
3
SPEAKER_02
On the 50th.
3
SPEAKER_02
Chevy s a first ballot hall of famer.
3
SPEAKER_02
but I m gonna try to get some votes for SNL.
3
SPEAKER_01
You start with Dan Aykroyd.
3
SPEAKER_02
It means on SNL, you re just obviously right in the Hall of Fame of SNL, no matter what.
3
SPEAKER_01
We think it s sports.
3
SPEAKER_01
Do you like sports, Chevy?
3
SPEAKER_01
No arguments.
3
SPEAKER_01
We think it s sports metaphors.
3
SPEAKER_01
Do you like sports?
3
SPEAKER_01
Are you a sports guy?
3
SPEAKER_01
Did you say spores?
3
SPEAKER_01
Janie?
3
SPEAKER_01
I like spores.
3
SPEAKER_01
Maybe Janie should pull up a chair and just sort of...
3
SPEAKER_01
Another way to put it.
3
SPEAKER_01
You want to get Janie down here?
3
SPEAKER_01
If you re creating a sketch team for a television show, I would start with you at Update and I would put Dan Aykroyd in there and Bill Murray and basically the whole first cast.
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, it s hard.
3
SPEAKER_00
Well, he wasn t in the first, Billy.
3
SPEAKER_01
Billy came a little later, did like three years.
3
SPEAKER_00
He was in Chicago killing people.
3
SPEAKER_01
Right, Billy, because you re both six foot four.
3
SPEAKER_01
Lorne, we d like someone as tall as Chevy and then they brought in Bill.
3
SPEAKER_01
You re both giants.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
Now Gilda Radner, she s just a magic person on camera.
3
SPEAKER_01
I know.
3
SPEAKER_00
Is she still around?
3
SPEAKER_00
That s all right.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s okay.
3
SPEAKER_00
Come on, it s pretty bad.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s pretty bad.
3
SPEAKER_00
No, no.
3
SPEAKER_01
I ve said things privately that would make your hair stand.
3
SPEAKER_00
Apparently I m not being private.
3
SPEAKER_01
This is our first live podcast.
3
SPEAKER_01
It s all over Europe and East Asia.
3
SPEAKER_01
Everything s out there.
3
SPEAKER_01
No, anything can be cut so you can say anything.
3
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, who are your favorite SNL people over the years?
3
SPEAKER_00
I know you probably don t want to... Gilda for sure.

3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, that s what I mean.
3
SPEAKER_00
God, that was... Who would you put in there?
3
SPEAKER_00
Wasn t that the worst thing in the world, John dying?
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, that was a tough one.
3
SPEAKER_00
Janie and I were in our house out here.
3
SPEAKER_00
Yes.
3
SPEAKER_00
an earlier house.
3
SPEAKER_00
It was on the door.
3
SPEAKER_00
And, you know, you re not supposed to really actually get into the area because other people live here.
3
SPEAKER_00
Anyway, I opened the door and there s like eight journalists.
3
SPEAKER_00
Chevy, what do you think about John dying?
3
SPEAKER_00
I mean, it was hideous.
3
SPEAKER_02
That s how you found out.
3
SPEAKER_00
I said, great.
3
SPEAKER_00
No, it literally just blew our minds to hear.
3
SPEAKER_00
On the other hand, it wasn t that surprising, given its proclivities, and may I say propensities.
3
SPEAKER_01
And now, pigtail.
3
SPEAKER_01
And peculiar piccadillos.
3
SPEAKER_00
Piccadillo.
3
SPEAKER_01
Piccadillo.
3
SPEAKER_01
Piccadillo, yes.
3
SPEAKER_01
Well, we re a family on Saturday Night Live.
3
SPEAKER_01
We re all connected.
3
SPEAKER_01
Don t you wish.
3
SPEAKER_01
Not that I was looking, but what is your rank on the all time, are you on the top five?
3
SPEAKER_01
Like Rolling Stone did something, did you check your number?
3
SPEAKER_01
I think I was nine.
3
SPEAKER_00
I think I was 10.
3
SPEAKER_01
10, right behind me?
3
SPEAKER_01
I think you, no fucking way, this little prick.
3
SPEAKER_01
I m gonna write that down.
3
SPEAKER_00
Wait a minute, was I dead, Janie, do we remember seeing this?
3
SPEAKER_01
We don t read.
3
SPEAKER_01
There were lots of polls.
3
SPEAKER_01
That was just, I remember Steve Martin saying, they just throw it up against the wall.
3
SPEAKER_01
I think Jan Winter was two.
3
SPEAKER_02
They also do polls with some people out of order, so people argue about it.
3
SPEAKER_02
Okay.
3
SPEAKER_02
That s what I ve found in my travels.
3
SPEAKER_00
Oh yeah, I got a question for Chetty.
3
SPEAKER_00
You do this, both of you, right?
3
SPEAKER_00
We do.
3
SPEAKER_00
I keep thinking I have hair.
3
SPEAKER_00
So I m doing this all the time.
3
SPEAKER_00
You keep rubbing it?
3
SPEAKER_00
Whoa.
3
SPEAKER_00
Wait a minute.
3
SPEAKER_02
It s starting to come in.
3
SPEAKER_00
I dropped my, you.
3
SPEAKER_00
No, this morning I was in the bathroom doing this.
3
SPEAKER_00
And I m showing Janie, this is what I do.
3
SPEAKER_00
Just balance it.
3
SPEAKER_00
That s not a bad idea.
3
SPEAKER_00
I had hair once.
3
SPEAKER_01
Dude, you re a movie star.
3
SPEAKER_01
Well, that s what Jerry Seinfeld said to Lorne.
3
SPEAKER_01
He goes, I had hair when I needed it, like during the sitcom.
3
SPEAKER_01
And then he lost it all, not lost it, basically at 50.
3
SPEAKER_01
But when he was on the sitcom, I had it when he needed it.
3
SPEAKER_01
You had it when you needed it.
3
SPEAKER_01
I got it, I got it.
3
SPEAKER_01
But what s he doing now, Jerry Seinfeld?
3
SPEAKER_01
Counting his money.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
No, I don t.
3
SPEAKER_01
He likes to do stand-up.
3
SPEAKER_01
He worked on a Pop-Tart bit for five years, and now he s making an animated... I m not kidding.
3
SPEAKER_01
I believe you.
3
SPEAKER_01
He is the most scientific, and if you re around him, and he hasn t done his hour alone in a room with his comedy notes, he starts getting anxious.
3
SPEAKER_01
Really?
3
SPEAKER_01
I ve got to get to my notes.
3
SPEAKER_00
I hope he s not listening.
3
SPEAKER_01
It took him a while to crack that Pop-Tart.
3
SPEAKER_00
He s brilliant.
3
SPEAKER_01
He s one of the best stand-ups.
3
SPEAKER_01
He cracked the code in a bit.
3
SPEAKER_00
Sure, now he s one of the best.
3
SPEAKER_02
No, Jerry is one of the best.
3
SPEAKER_02
I saw him two weeks ago, we were at the Improv, and he came into the set, great, wall-to-wall.
3
SPEAKER_02
He goes, I m trying new stuff, and it didn t seem new, it was so good.
3
SPEAKER_02
He s, you know.
3
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, well said.
3
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, Chevy, we can take, don t worry, my parts will be cut out later.
3
SPEAKER_01
Sounds like Julian Lennon.
3
SPEAKER_02
No, this is a compliment.
3
SPEAKER_02
You were on The Tonight Show, huge star, and then you were, maybe you guest hosted?
3
SPEAKER_02
Would you ever wanna have been the host of The Tonight Show after Johnny left, or no?
3
SPEAKER_02
Oh, no.
3
SPEAKER_02
Because they said that you were one of their favorite,
3
SPEAKER_00
No, I think people wrote that.
3
SPEAKER_00
Let me just think of who wrote it.
3
SPEAKER_00
And then people like me read it.
3
SPEAKER_00
Truman Capote.
3
SPEAKER_00
I m fucked, I can t remember.
3
SPEAKER_00
It was Truman Capote.
3
SPEAKER_02
Oh, NBC executives referred to you as the first potential successor.
3
SPEAKER_02
But it seems like you were doing so many movies you wouldn t want to do that, like of course.
3
SPEAKER_02
But that was a huge compliment to say you d be the best to take over.
3
SPEAKER_02
I guess so.
3
SPEAKER_02
Who said it?
3
SPEAKER_00
I don t know.
3
SPEAKER_00
I m just making shit up at this point.
3
SPEAKER_00
Thank you.
3
SPEAKER_00
Thank you very much, Ed.
3
SPEAKER_00
You are correct.
3
SPEAKER_01
Can you do Ed, too?
3
SPEAKER_01
No.
3
SPEAKER_01
Not really.
3
SPEAKER_01
Phil Hartman, our Dan Aykroyd, did the best Ed.
3
SPEAKER_00
He did.
3
SPEAKER_00
He did a good Ed.
3
SPEAKER_01
He did a great Ed, and every time he spoke, it was funny.
3
SPEAKER_01
And Johnny just set him up.
3
SPEAKER_01
Oh, God.
3
SPEAKER_01
Because Johnny s references were not very current.
3
SPEAKER_01
Reminds me of the old Palmel cigarettes.
3
SPEAKER_00
Old reference!
3
SPEAKER_00
Lost on Yonkerville!
3
SPEAKER_00
Palmel!
3
SPEAKER_01
Palmel!
3
SPEAKER_00
Reminds me of the old Palmel cigarettes.
3
SPEAKER_00
Do you guys make that up now?
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_00
Do you like them?
3
SPEAKER_02
I like Dana.
3
SPEAKER_01
I like David.
3
SPEAKER_01
I like you, Chevy, more than I like David at this point.
3
SPEAKER_02
We re trying to win you over, but we re running out of time.
3
SPEAKER_01
No, he s won me over.
3
SPEAKER_01
You hosted the Academy Awards twice.
3
SPEAKER_01
A lot of work or fun.
3
SPEAKER_01
You all right?
3
SPEAKER_01
Oh, sorry.
3
SPEAKER_00
I just heard your sciatica pop.
3
SPEAKER_00
The honest thing is, the honest thing is, it s fun.
3
SPEAKER_00
You know, you don t have to do shit, really.
3
SPEAKER_00
You just come out, everybody who has to like announce what the next, and the screenplay, and you know, that shit, they re all fucking crazy scared that they won t get their lines right that are right there, fucking right now.
3
SPEAKER_00
And for me, I don t have to have that.
3
SPEAKER_00
I just have to be me, as it were.
3
SPEAKER_00
I think the very first one I hosted, Jack Nicholson was sitting in the front row.
3
SPEAKER_00
He was always there, yeah.
3
SPEAKER_00
What d you say?
3
SPEAKER_00
Uh-oh.
3
SPEAKER_00
As I came back, the first thing I said was, quiet down, Jack.
3
SPEAKER_00
Just mindless, but then the camera s on him, you know.
3
SPEAKER_00
Right.
3
SPEAKER_01
Well, I think if you were having fun, it s gonna translate.
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, Pryor and I did it together.
3
SPEAKER_00
Together, oh, that s great.
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, and he went out before me, he said, this was the first thing he said,
3
SPEAKER_00
No black man has ever won anything.
3
SPEAKER_02
Anything.
3
SPEAKER_02
Oh, they had that famous sketch.
3
SPEAKER_02
Well, it was first year, famous sketch with you and Pryor.
3
SPEAKER_01
Oh, that one.
3
SPEAKER_02
The job interview.
3
SPEAKER_01
That was, yeah, very adult.
3
SPEAKER_02
We all know the sketch.
3
SPEAKER_02
We don t have to say anything else.
3
SPEAKER_02
Thanks a lot, tick face.
3
SPEAKER_02
Well, I said it was great.
3
SPEAKER_02
I think we can t talk about it that much.
3
SPEAKER_01
I ll go for it because we have editing capabilities at all times.
3
SPEAKER_01
Ticks on his face.
3
SPEAKER_02
No.
3
SPEAKER_02
Don t look at your watch, Chevy.
3
SPEAKER_01
I thought he was coming around to say... No, you have three and a half more hours.
3
SPEAKER_01
If I could tell a Richard Pryor story, but I don t know if I wanna take Chevy s time.
3
SPEAKER_01
Oh, go ahead.
3
SPEAKER_00
Please.
3
SPEAKER_00
From moving.
3
SPEAKER_00
Do, do.
3
SPEAKER_01
I... Okay, I ll say this as fast as I can.
3
SPEAKER_01
I was... I read from moving, by the way.
3
SPEAKER_01
No, I... Yeah, before that, I was a waiter at the Holiday Inn, and I waited on Richard Pryor.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
Because he was playing this theater.
3
SPEAKER_01
And I brought him a Denver omelet, and when I took it away, I was very nervous.
3
SPEAKER_01
He looked at me and said,
4
SPEAKER_01
Whoever made that omelet can suck my dick.
4
SPEAKER_01
And I never knew if that was a positive or a negative.
4
SPEAKER_01
It could have gone either way.
4
SPEAKER_01
10 years later, I m in a movie with Richard moving and I had to know.
4
SPEAKER_01
So at lunchtime, I m sitting next to Richard.
4
SPEAKER_01
I took a bite of a cheeseburger and I said, whoever made this cheeseburger can suck my dick.
4
SPEAKER_01
And he goes, you must like that cheeseburger.
4
SPEAKER_01
Oh boy.
4
SPEAKER_01
That was the Richard Pryor bit.
4
SPEAKER_01
I like it.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, there s a little math to it.
4
SPEAKER_00
Dean, I m sorry, but you should work on the voice, Richard.
4
SPEAKER_01
Well, I haven t done it in a while.
4
SPEAKER_01
It s a substitute voice for now.
4
SPEAKER_01
Hi, I m Richard Pryor.
4
SPEAKER_03
I remember Richard doing this show, hosting first time, like the second host, I think, maybe second show.
4
SPEAKER_03
Thank you.
4
SPEAKER_03
Anyway, applause for accurate facts.
4
SPEAKER_03
What did you think when you first saw it?
4
SPEAKER_03
Wait, I m trying to remember why I started that.
4
SPEAKER_03
I have a little pain in my heart.
4
SPEAKER_03
That s all right.
4
SPEAKER_03
It s okay.
4
SPEAKER_03
He s on the floor.
4
SPEAKER_03
Chevy is, oxygen?
4
SPEAKER_03
No, Richard and me and.
4
SPEAKER_03
No, Janie, please.
4
SPEAKER_00
Okay, do you have it?
4
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_00
Are you gonna remember?
4
SPEAKER_00
Okay.
4
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_00
Just to, I should have told you guys this ahead of time.

SPEAKER_00
February last year, Chevy had heart failure.

SPEAKER_01
Cool.

SPEAKER_01
I m just, I m channeling you now.
4
SPEAKER_01
Applause.
4
SPEAKER_01
I never noticed it.
4
SPEAKER_00
Basically, he was rather out of it for a while.
4
SPEAKER_00
some memories, they re kind of coming back.
4
SPEAKER_00
Okay.
4
SPEAKER_01
But you know, things like when you ask- Why don t you share this with them and the radio world?
4
SPEAKER_01
It seems like your memory is pretty, pretty come back at this point to me.
4
SPEAKER_01
Oh yeah.
4
SPEAKER_01
It is, it s bigger and better, but just so you know.
4
SPEAKER_01
Sorry about heart failure.
4
SPEAKER_03
I m here with David Spade and Dana Andrews.
4
SPEAKER_02
Oh right, well- Dana Andrews!
4
SPEAKER_03
I was named after him.
4
SPEAKER_03
Were you?
4
SPEAKER_03
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_03
Oh, God.
4
SPEAKER_03
Oh, so Richard.
4
SPEAKER_03
Yes.
4
SPEAKER_03
See?
4
SPEAKER_03
He s trying to... You got us back on track.
4
SPEAKER_03
Yeah, he s trying to compare white people and black people, you know, like a stand-up.
4
SPEAKER_03
And he says, you know, white people get all like that if they see a snake.
4
SPEAKER_03
They get all frightened and jump away.
4
SPEAKER_03
Black people just go, snake.
4
SPEAKER_01
It was great!
4
SPEAKER_01
Well, it s just his timing.
4
SPEAKER_01
Snake.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_01
He s the best stand-up.
4
SPEAKER_01
I love him.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_01
I think his Long Beach special was just phenomenal.
4
SPEAKER_01
Anyway, David?
4
SPEAKER_02
Any favorite?
4
SPEAKER_02
You re friends with Norm?
4
SPEAKER_02
You were friends with Norm Macdonald?
4
SPEAKER_02
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_02
He s a good update guy.
4
SPEAKER_02
He was great, right?
4
SPEAKER_03
Oh, he s just great, yeah.
4
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, he does great shit.
4
SPEAKER_03
I thought he did it, yeah.
4
SPEAKER_03
I didn t think anybody else did it very well, but I thought he did brilliant.
4
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, he pushed it pretty far.
4
SPEAKER_03
He just went right for the dirt.
4
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, he went for the jugular every time, which.
4
SPEAKER_03
No, there weren t any, it s like I did it because I was interested in politics, I read the New York Times.
4
SPEAKER_03
Not him, he just goes and just throws like a dirty word in there or something.
4
SPEAKER_01
Wow, fuck my goddamn nail.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, this is a very dangerous studio.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, he did a lot of that OJ stuff.
4
SPEAKER_01
You have a classic Norm.
4
SPEAKER_01
Oh.
4
SPEAKER_01
It was always some turn by Norm, but he probably was influenced by you as far as being dangerous or being edgy.
4
SPEAKER_01
Sure, everybody was.
4
SPEAKER_01
I don t think so, I don t know.
4
SPEAKER_02
Well, after you doing Update, that s not the one to beat, but it s like, that s so good, you go, how do I do it where I don t look
4
SPEAKER_02
I don t look so pale in comparison.
4
SPEAKER_03
Well, it was the first one, so people do compare that.
4
SPEAKER_03
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_03
Yeah, but really, this is the best by far.
4
SPEAKER_03
Thank you.
4
SPEAKER_02
Yeah.
4
SPEAKER_01
Was that our best question?
4
SPEAKER_02
I ll tell you a quick joke I heard from Norm on.
4
SPEAKER_02
Norm is always fun.
4
SPEAKER_02
This Norm joke where he goes, my wife, first of all, he s not married.
4
SPEAKER_02
My wife was in a coma.
4
SPEAKER_02
I m waiting in the waiting room.
4
SPEAKER_02
Was she in a coma?
4
SPEAKER_02
This is Norm s fake joke.
4
SPEAKER_02
I like your good audience in a coma.
4
SPEAKER_02
You did say coma, didn t you?
4
SPEAKER_02
So the wife s in a coma.
4
SPEAKER_02
The doctor says, Norm goes, anything I can do?
4
SPEAKER_02
And he goes, well,
4
SPEAKER_02
we found an unorthodox way, some way to get her awake, oral sex might help.
4
SPEAKER_02
And he goes, oh yeah?
4
SPEAKER_02
And he goes, well, if you want to.
4
SPEAKER_02
And he goes, yeah, I ll do it.
4
SPEAKER_02
So he goes in there and he comes out and he goes, Doc, it s been five minutes and she s choking.
4
SPEAKER_02
That s Norm McGonagall.
4
SPEAKER_02
That s a good Norm, yeah.
4
SPEAKER_02
I think he told that to like Conan, everyone s like, oh Jesus.
4
SPEAKER_03
Conan just, okay, next.
4
SPEAKER_01
Conan.
4
SPEAKER_01
Is that the red headed guy?
4
SPEAKER_01
Yes.
4
SPEAKER_01
He s very ginger and he s very tall.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, he is tall, you re right.
4
SPEAKER_03
Hi Conan, how are you?
4
SPEAKER_02
Oh, he s shorter than you?
4
SPEAKER_02
I have no idea.
4
SPEAKER_02
Look at Dana and I are fighting it out down here at five.
4
SPEAKER_02
Sorry, my wife s looking.
4
SPEAKER_02
Divorce me.
4
SPEAKER_01
She s like, I did, you forgot.
4
SPEAKER_01
Flying the wall is taking a turn for... This is very interesting.
4
SPEAKER_03
She s taking a turn.
4
SPEAKER_01
Janie, his wife, and now he are engaging in friendly, romantic banter.
4
SPEAKER_02
I got a real question.
4
SPEAKER_02
Did you ever write a script?
4
SPEAKER_02
You re a very funny guy.
4
SPEAKER_02
Did you ever just write a whole one?
4
SPEAKER_02
No.
4
SPEAKER_03
I wrote many beginnings and stuff, you know, and thoughts.
4
SPEAKER_03
I wrote every day, but I just couldn t bring myself to writing a whole script.
4
SPEAKER_02
You probably punch up a lot on the set, though, or add jokes.
4
SPEAKER_02
What did you say?
4
SPEAKER_02
I said you probably punch up when you re on the set.
4
SPEAKER_01
When you re filming on the set, you probably improvise a lot, punch up stuff a lot.
4
SPEAKER_01
They probably give you the script ahead of time, like Fletch, and you go, not that, I ll do this.
4
SPEAKER_01
That s what I m assuming.
4
SPEAKER_01
Okay, good assumption.
4
SPEAKER_01
You might be a genius.
4
SPEAKER_01
I m not.
4
SPEAKER_01
I don t think so.
4
SPEAKER_01
It s possible though.
4
SPEAKER_01
I know I m not.
4
SPEAKER_02
How long of a shoot was, how long was Caddyshack?
4
SPEAKER_02
Everyone s favorite movie from growing up.
4
SPEAKER_02
How long was it?
4
SPEAKER_02
How long did it take you guys?
4
SPEAKER_02
Was it a short shoot, like three or four weeks?
4
SPEAKER_02
When you shot it, yeah, when you shot it.
4
SPEAKER_03
Oh, because I was going to say about an hour.
4
SPEAKER_03
How long was Caddyshack?
4
SPEAKER_03
Thank you, Dave.
4
SPEAKER_02
No, what is the running time of Fletch?
4
SPEAKER_02
These are my questions.
4
SPEAKER_01
He was a chess champion.
4
SPEAKER_01
He s into numbers.
4
SPEAKER_01
He was an actual state chess champion.
4
SPEAKER_01
Is that true?
4
SPEAKER_02
I was, but the smartness has gone away.
4
SPEAKER_01
King to pawns, knight four, whatever it is.
4
SPEAKER_03
What do the pawns do?
4
SPEAKER_01
That s a great question.
4
SPEAKER_01
That s like David and I here right now.
4
SPEAKER_01
Okay, excellent.
4
SPEAKER_01
Can I give you a compliment or as a question?
4
SPEAKER_01
Are you kidding?
4
SPEAKER_02
I can t wait.
4
SPEAKER_01
I always tell people about, because I was watching Caddyshack, and so you and Billy Murray are doing a thing where you re golfing.
4
SPEAKER_01
I think going through the
4
SPEAKER_01
Bill Murray is in his gopher guy.
4
SPEAKER_01
He s got the funny mouth.
4
SPEAKER_01
He s got the overtly funny character, right?
4
SPEAKER_01
You play it so Buster Keaton.
4
SPEAKER_01
Your face is so straight that you more than hold your own in that scene.
4
SPEAKER_01
And I always go, cause I m always out there dancing and mugging and pushing.
4
SPEAKER_01
You just went nothing and created this incredible comedic dance with Bill Murray.
4
SPEAKER_01
Now you talk.
4
SPEAKER_01
Go.
4
SPEAKER_01
Go.
4
SPEAKER_01
Ooh, Chevy is wiping a tear.
4
SPEAKER_01
No, but do people mention that scene in your style of silent film comedy when you wanna do it?
4
SPEAKER_03
Well, we did wing it, by the way.
4
SPEAKER_03
And it was in Bill s caddy shack.
4
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, oh, that one, yeah.
4
SPEAKER_03
When we first shot it, when we were ready to go, Bill had put on the wall there, like,
4
SPEAKER_03
eight pictures of naked women, like with their legs spread, you know, from Hustler or something.
4
SPEAKER_03
And, you know, Landis says, I don t, no, I don t think so.
4
SPEAKER_03
And so Bill just collected them all, just one underneath, you know, one of, I don t know, a girl like this or something, maybe like this.
4
SPEAKER_03
Anyway, so,
4
SPEAKER_03
We start going and he s just trying to get me the whole time to crack me up.
4

6
SPEAKER_03
I like dramas.
6
SPEAKER_01
I thought Seinfeld was good.
6
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, very good.
6
SPEAKER_01
It s unfortunate that he s nowhere now.
6
SPEAKER_03
He got no syndication.
6
SPEAKER_03
Once he walked off, there was no money.
6
SPEAKER_03
That s it.
6
SPEAKER_03
No back end.
6
SPEAKER_03
You gotta get a picture of that so they know what we re seeing.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_03
I love it.
6
SPEAKER_03

6
SPEAKER_03
What people don t know about Chevy is... That s a good one.
6
SPEAKER_02
He has... Something s happening.
6
SPEAKER_01
I m thinking.
6
SPEAKER_01
What people don t know about Chevy is... Greg, come on down.
6
SPEAKER_01
Why not ruin it?
6
SPEAKER_03
Greg is helpless.
6
SPEAKER_03
What was the question again?
6
SPEAKER_03
What people don t know about Chevy is... He s an amazing jazz pianist.
6
SPEAKER_03
That s right.
6
SPEAKER_03
You re a musician and you re a great pianist.
6
SPEAKER_01
Thank you, sweetie.
6
SPEAKER_01

I wonder if you and I- I was a drummer for Steely Dan.
6
SPEAKER_01
Really?
6
SPEAKER_01
Why did you go into comedy?
6
SPEAKER_01
In college we started.

6
SPEAKER_03

6
SPEAKER_03
I m kind of a pretend drummer.
6
SPEAKER_01
We were jazz oriented.
6
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
6
SPEAKER_01
So that always was a help.
6
SPEAKER_01
I mean, I say, you know, you got to have independent coordination, which apparently you ve never had.
6
SPEAKER_03
My father just came into the room.
6
SPEAKER_03
Who s your favorite jazz drummer?
6
SPEAKER_01
Your father s awful.
6
SPEAKER_03

6
SPEAKER_03
Do you want me... Is there anybody you want me to do or sign off on?

7
SPEAKER_01
That s a good way to get your question picked.
7
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
7
SPEAKER_01
Mine, you probably, I m going to guess you re going to say Holy City Zoo or Cobb s Pub or something like that.
7
SPEAKER_02
If I had to say, yeah, past, it would be the other cafe on Carl and Cole in the Haight-Ashbury.
7
SPEAKER_02
It was a laundromat, made into a comedy club, 60 seats, giant window with freaks walking by, the whole audience could see.
7
SPEAKER_02
18 dryers, four washers.
7
SPEAKER_02
And the first time I ever saw my wife, and I went back there years later with my son, now it s back to being a laundromat, and it was almost like a Twilight Zone.
7
SPEAKER_02
I was standing over there and I said, I saw your mom over here.
7
SPEAKER_02
you know, in 1979.
7
SPEAKER_01
Yes.
7
SPEAKER_02
So that was it.
7
SPEAKER_02
It was called The Other Cafe.
7
SPEAKER_02
Bobcat went there a lot, Bob Goldthwaite, Paula Poundstone, Robin will come by.
7
SPEAKER_02
What was your touchstone?
7
SPEAKER_01
Where did you get good?
7
SPEAKER_01
I used to love, well, my first one was at Chuckles in Arizona.
7
SPEAKER_01
What a hilarious name for a comedy club.
7
SPEAKER_01
They always have one.
7
SPEAKER_01
Did you ever play Sir Laughs A Lot?
7
SPEAKER_01
I did not.
7
SPEAKER_01
I played Rooster Teeth Feathers.
7
SPEAKER_01
You played Gutbusters or Sidesplitters?
7
SPEAKER_02
This is not a joke.
7
SPEAKER_02
I played Ripticklers in Minneapolis and I went there a lot.
7
SPEAKER_02
It was called Ripticklers.
7
SPEAKER_01
They re all real.
7
SPEAKER_01
The Dallas Improv was a favorite growing up.
7
SPEAKER_01
San Diego Improv was a favorite starting out.
7
SPEAKER_01
And I say the Ryman Auditorium I just did in Nashville was a great theater and I m looking forward because I do a theater tour now.
7
SPEAKER_01
And so I hit all these, some of them are just gorgeous old theaters.
7
SPEAKER_01
So I don t know, I still like going up in the store.
7
SPEAKER_01
I didn t go on and never got an audition there.
7
SPEAKER_01
Louie Anderson helped me get in there.
7
SPEAKER_01
They didn t like me, Mitzi.
7
SPEAKER_01
So I never went in there again, never stepped foot in the Comedy Store for 20 years.
7
SPEAKER_01
And then Adam Egot got me.
7
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, I mean, I m just on today.
7
SPEAKER_02
I like it.
7
SPEAKER_02
Eliza, I m more into the Allegiance Center in Chicago.
7
SPEAKER_02
I like Staples Center.
7
SPEAKER_02
I like Staples.
7
SPEAKER_02
Matt s Square Garden s a little small for me right now, but I still think it s got a good vibe.
7
SPEAKER_02
You know, it s a little snug.
7
SPEAKER_01
But I like Elbow Room.
7
SPEAKER_02
I m kidding.
7
SPEAKER_02
I kid.
7
SPEAKER_01
I just played one at this casino and I ran into Kid Rock and I m like, ah, and he goes, yeah, we re doing this and this.
7
SPEAKER_01

7
SPEAKER_01
He goes, we did upstate, you know, something in California.
7
SPEAKER_01

7
SPEAKER_01
I had to fly to Sacramento and then drive 90 minutes.
7
SPEAKER_01
He goes, that s it.
7
SPEAKER_01
I go, no way.
7
SPEAKER_01
And he goes, yeah, and there s a little like motel six, basically like a no-tell motel right next to it, beautiful casino.
7
SPEAKER_01
But I stayed in the dumpy two-story where the fans would just follow me in and they walk up the stairs, picture all the way up the stairs, you know, it s got one person.
7
SPEAKER_01
And then I go, oh, is this your room?
7
SPEAKER_01
I m like, yep, room eight.
7
SPEAKER_01
And then I just go in, they just stay on the other side of my door.
7
SPEAKER_01
And they re pounding at night.
7
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, they re like, when should we kill him?
7
SPEAKER_01
In the middle of the night, should we eat first?
7
SPEAKER_01
So then, but he goes, you played that outdoor one?
7
SPEAKER_01
I go, yeah, it s outdoors.
7
SPEAKER_01
Cause it was 106 and I had a long sleeve shirt on.
7
SPEAKER_01
And they said, are you sure you want to wear that outside?
7
SPEAKER_01
I go.
7
SPEAKER_01
This gig s outside and they go, why do I not know that?
7
SPEAKER_01
They go, it s an amphitheater.
7
SPEAKER_01
I go, is that what that means?
7
SPEAKER_01
Did not know what that meant.
7
SPEAKER_01
And then he goes, dude, that place, I did 17,000 there.
7
SPEAKER_01
You played it?
7
SPEAKER_01
I go, don t you dare.
7
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, you starting to get it, Kid Rock?
7
SPEAKER_01
They just cordoned it off.
7
SPEAKER_01
I said, it wasn t super packed.
7
SPEAKER_02
I mean, there was a little elbow room between people.
7
SPEAKER_02
I drove from Vegas to Reno once, because I don t like to fly much, with Larry Bubbles Brown, and we stayed in this small town, and there were cinder blocks for walls in the motel.
7
SPEAKER_02
Yeah.
7
SPEAKER_02
Cinder blocks.
7
SPEAKER_02
And then the local Yoko s knew we were there, and they were in the parking lot.
7
SPEAKER_02
Hey, come on out!
7
SPEAKER_02
You know?
7
SPEAKER_02
But they didn t know where my room was.
7
SPEAKER_02
It was like, you know.

SPEAKER_01
But you could hear them.

SPEAKER_01
Road stories.
