00:04:58
nothing bad can happen here and there are no rules and we've already started and uh we're halfway done you're almost
00:05:03
done how are you man it's been a long see last time I saw you was on an airplane yeah uh coming from New York
00:05:10
what were we doing uh was it some upfronts or something uh I was yeah I was doing UPF fronts yeah that's right that's why we were both on and we were because we took a picture on the plane yeah and I'd just done that hoax oh
00:05:22
that's right about that I had a meltdown on the set oh that's right yeah and then I had you like in a headlock or you had
00:05:28
me in a headlock on the Days Later released it that it was all a hoax and was we were on you did a hoax
00:05:34
together I he did a HOA online and people thought he flipped out in the set I think that was it right yeah and that
00:05:39
someone caught it from a camera yeah funnier die oh funnier die I'd had a like a serious meltdown on the side and then it turned out that it was just a
00:05:51
comedy skit the last time I saw you I don't know if we interacted I was at the part three golf course in Studio City
00:05:57
with love it wh it oh yeah yeah and U is love it still there yeah he never leaves
00:06:03
that place he's a caddy if there's pie there he's there we love you John we love you no I talked to him earlier
00:06:09
today in anyway he's tell Denis quic yeah he gets excited but you were just booming uh drive driving the ball and cursing in between are you still any good uh I could be well not quite there
00:06:24
yet no time yeah do do you understand what it means to maybe at one point have a one handicap is that true yeah that's
00:06:32
like not normal for an actor oh it's it's called too much time on your hands I guess between fils you have these diluted dreams of wow I maybe I could
00:06:44
actually go on the tour but uh uh that was a a passing phase and you know T how bad most golfers are I mean I mean just yeah I know I'm one of them I'm an eight handicap now but that means
00:07:00
I mean I would shoot a 100 okay if I was playing by real rules on a real course yeah I have shot a 100 before Oh I feel
00:07:08
better sometimes you do go by the real rules uh you have to uh I'm a 800 handicap I don't know what that means but I was told that early on no I actually try to play that's about a a
00:07:18
15h hour round that's you you live here or not I uh live in Nashville primarily my k kids are uh here and so
00:07:31
during the school year I come back here every other weille now what's the deal tax rate Nashville which I've
00:07:38
played there it's great town it's fantastic and zero state tax uh they have zero state tax that's true but it's the I just the vibe that is going on
00:07:49
there there's got a an artistic collegial atmosphere that's happening there it's not your grandpa's uh Nashville anymore there it's hard to find a hush puppy in fact I
00:08:03
see yeah and uh it's it's just great 75% of all music done in the United States regardless of genre is uh done in Nashville that's what I would tell people if you walk down the main drag
00:08:15
and you go into a bar or whatever you see like one of the best country western Brands you've ever seen then you walk a few more feet then you see a family
00:08:22
doing it right country western so and that's another one of your things we'll get to you are a number one go song
00:08:30
Fallen which I listen to today great song and you really can sing do you sometimes do you you ever look at other other bands of actors because then people you have to earn a lot of respect
00:08:40
when you're an actor and guess guess what I could do this other than Cosner has one Jim blushi Tiana Reeves yeah TI
00:08:49
Reeves so it's it's pretty cool that you've made quite a bit it's either that or you know athletes want to be actors or they want to be basketball players and football players or you know it's
00:09:02
it's just something I've always done you know music is just something I've done since I was 12 years old and uh
00:09:09
songwriting I knew I was never going to shred a guitar so I turned to songwriting early and then I've always had a band and so so it's just something
00:09:20
I do so what hit you hard because we're pretty much the same age yeah uh um so that would be but you're kind of country got you more like Johnny Cash or were you were you Blown Away by The Beatles
00:09:33
and all that all of it all of that yeah we grew up in Houston it's a pretty eclectic Place actually grew up
00:09:39
musically and uh you know I remember Elvis I remember Hank Williams I remember you
00:09:46
know my dad would crun around to Bing Crosby that was his Elvis and you know Dean Martin and then you know the
00:09:52
Beatles came along and everything blew everything out of the water yeah we love it do you ever go to Kid Rocks Country [ __ ] kicker circus yep that's a bar down
00:10:04
there yep it should be called Bubba trumps to be honest yeah is that he's got another one over at his place too oh his house was yeah yeah fun his church or something yeah yeah he's the old he's
00:10:17
quite a guy he's the mayor of uh of Nashville pretty much he's the mayor of Broadway that's for sure yeah yeah yeah there's actually every other Dan and if you go there when I did the uh rhyme in or
00:10:29
whatever last time every couple bars is a country western singer bar yeah like Aline I think there's one of those there's ten Tucker is there t tuck she's
00:10:43
gonna it's ten it's t she getting ready what is the Tennessee accent I always thought it was almost like an Al Gore or something or well Al Gore
00:10:56
is yeah so many people uh in Texas came from Tennessee it's kind of like very similar I think you know yeah it was the west back then it's an Andrew Jackson accent I think is that
00:11:09
the president know that well I do an Andrew Jackson because no one can prove it's not a good one yeah you do good I
00:11:15
am Andrew Jackson I'm Andrew Jackson here right now if you can't do the impression guy you've done just about
00:11:21
every president there is between you and me you did Clinton in a movie yeah I did
00:11:27
which was great I mean you're you're it was fantastic they you know what's interesting someone asked me and wrote a
00:11:33
really good script as a live streaming show to do perau in a biopic like what you just did with Reagan yeah and it was a really good script I just didn't I I wouldn't even know how to approach that
00:11:44
but that I don't really want to get into how you're you know because you don't want to do a character CH you want to
00:11:51
you want to be the character I voted for Ross pero can I will bust my buns and bite me with a butterfly welcome sir can I do Ross perau with James Brown like
00:12:03
you said you know saving and you know to get around the economic crisis it'll be
00:12:09
fun I'm surprised that we even had a baby that learned to walk around here hell so much the greatest character in
00:12:16
the history of politics it was fabulous I in my act now I do him as James Brown can I come in on the one can I come in
00:12:24
on the one see he gets the joke I get it okay okay music joke can I come in the one yeah it was a revolutionary thing that James Brown came it's not 1 2 3 4
00:12:34
it's which creates this whole you know good stuff okay well um well you did sorry David with but uh he does uh Michael J
00:12:49
fox getting pegged from the movie uh casual Le a war if you haven't heard it you have to do it if you've heard it don't do it it's hard to get me out of my shell
00:13:00
Micha J fox from casualties War oh oh remember casualties War Cas yes I do yeah yes hey sge what are
00:13:09
we doing here exactly you gotta give me a minute on this here come on mallerie I combined it the that's all I got Den it exists funny it's fabulous
00:13:25
that that someone thought to do Michael J fox from that from that particular movie and he did that movie which was
00:13:32
when you do it it's it's not like an impersonation it's like you are Michael Fox yeah uh Sean pan John C Riley it was
00:13:40
I even see the haircut I have I think I wanted to be like Michael J fox when I got into uh got into showas and then uh I gave that up
00:13:50
quickly but uh he was too famous too good he's great well let's give a little shout out to Michael J if you if you
00:13:58
look at Back to the Future and how hard it is to play that part and how brilliantly he did it you know it's
00:14:05
amazing he's go back and many many other films so yeah oh he's besides being an incredible person yeah he really has been he's a you know he guy
00:14:17
extraordinary what about this Reagan thing let's talk about that the Reagan thing you play first of all contextually
00:14:25
it's interesting that this is now probably started two years ago whatever it's coming out it started really six
00:14:32
years ago yeah so this is the most tumultuous time in the history of American politics by any measure yeah at
00:14:39
the very moment we're doing this podcast and your Reagan biopic is coming out August August 30th right after the Democratic National Convention I guess
00:14:49
so yeah I think they're going to close with the SC here's a b pick Dennis qu is GNA what what I tell you come on hey Reagan's
00:15:01
here let's get real the fact of the deal is come on there's no doubt what we did
00:15:07
there in the spot do you think you have the cognitive discipline to be presor he's my new toy but So Reagan let's start like you did Clinton I did
00:15:21
Clinton 2005 something like that and uh I actually played a GE uh George Bush type character in American Dreams with the Z you weren't technically George W
00:15:35
but you were so how did that guy sound uh he kind of sort of I can't even go there anymore he he kind of sort of sounded like George Bush right then you know got a chainy
00:15:48
character you know so it's it's pretty obvious but then I was offered uh Reagan I guess this is 2018 mhm something and uh I uh you know
00:16:01
he was my favorite President and uh he's probably he's like Muhammad Ali you know
00:16:06
he's like known sure all over the world and like this so I it took me a while to say yes cuz D was just uh scared to
00:16:15
death to to play him and it seems like you were the perfect choice I mean I I didn't see it that way we have kind of a head I mean there is is big head is where you're trying to get to your head
00:16:27
is square jaw you don't it's like can't play rean you know but you mean you kind of you were uh physically they could
00:16:34
kind of yeah well we're both actors we both have Sunny dispositions I think but you know it was like uh everybody in the world knows what he looked like sounded like and I just didn't really feel uh it
00:16:49
was just a it's a tough one a tough one to like take on and sure oh yeah so I I thought about it for a while and then I uh because where where's the way in you don't want to do an impersonation you
00:17:01
know no that's that's well that's pretty easy and uh NY and all that that's right
00:17:09
and uh so it took me a while to really kind of get into uh who he was as a person and and I
00:17:18
went up to the Reagan Ranch was Western White House back there and it's it's not a public place his friends bought it to
00:17:25
keep it as it was their clothes are in the closet there you expect them to like come back any
00:17:32
second they didn't change a thing and you go up five miles of the worst Road in California and get to the top and you
00:17:40
real I realized that uh Reagan was a humble man he wasn't a rich man and he you like they had a king-size bed but it was two single beds that were zip tied
00:17:52
together Jesus they did have GE they had GE Appliances you know that's from for money bags now and his uh his book case was there which had every book he'd
00:18:06
ever read going back to when he was 9 years old and there was just a feeling there that uh you that uh you could just feel his presence in a way and his uh
00:18:18
his secret service agent John was uh was kind of the caretaker of the place mhm who told me all kinds of stories about him and uh that's when I decid to yell I I'll do it he's still guarding it even
00:18:31
though Reagan's gone that's yeah John is gone too he he uh passed right before started shooting because we want to put him in the movie but uh one thing that's interesting to me is being around during
00:18:42
that time and Reagan was hung in effigy over they wanted a nuclear freeze and no
00:18:48
we're going the other way yeah and uh and now he's become so bright and shiny yeah that even the New York Times will refer to him how how he dealt with
00:19:01
Israel once and so and and and Fox News likes him I mean he's become this character that sort of transcends
00:19:08
politics in a way yeah there were Reagan democrats that that came over at the time but he was you know you if you
00:19:15
remember those times they he was called a warmonger he's going to get us into a nuclear war for sure yeah you know it's
00:19:24
uh his Economic Policy was just for the rich uh and uh didn't care about the Working Man and uh kind of like what's going on
00:19:35
today at a sense but he was he was who he was you know and he also just he knew how to lead something get him knew how to lead he was tough I mean right in the
00:19:48
first part of his administration um the air traffic controllers went on strike right and he fired all of them yeah that
00:19:55
was like a tough thing at the time yeah I mean shut down the airspace you know in the FAA and that had never been done an entire agent just fire agency fired
00:20:08
fired all of them and I think that's when in fact him doing that actually made the Russians think that this guy is like he'll just he's crazy
00:20:21
we we better watch out and you know Reagan won the Cold War I mean along with the Pope and Le yes but uh it's he uh it took a cold
00:20:33
warrior like that mhm to uh deal with the Russians because they respected him yeah you know they thought there was 80% thought oh well he's reasonable and the
00:20:47
that 20% they thought well he just might he might just he might just uh if we if
00:20:53
we're not careful he might do something we regret one thing that I think in terms a playe and I wonder what you
00:20:59
think about this because watching all these different debates different politics these days and Reagan had a
00:21:04
thing and he did it with Carter and it seems to speak to him so much that he would never get angry and if he was
00:21:11
misrepresented in his way in his mind he would say well there you go again it's the most benign likable way to say you're blind [ __ ] yeah there you go again the best one was uh in the
00:21:26
debate with mandale remember about his age he said I will not for political purposes exploit my opponent's Youth and inexperience brought down the house then
00:21:39
and it brought down the house even Mandel uh couldn't help and he cracked up and then and then Reagan did a thing
00:21:45
that I'm sure you will recognize he did a Jack Benny because he he had them laughing
00:21:51
and he just picked up his glass of water oh and just did a Stillness just drank to pause so it's called
00:22:04
killing it's a privilege kind of to inhabit him for a while I mean he just comes off so likable yeah did you know
00:22:12
he was everybody's Dad I think uh to the Boomers especially you know and that's for Worse better or worse you know there's a lot of people who still yeah
00:22:25
uh you can't mention his name and they'll they'll kind of fly off the wall like a non but it was either your your good dad or your bad dad or or bad yeah I ran into Patty Davis right after 911
00:22:38
at a gym and she was I know sounds I'm just remembering this now and she goes TR I know this might come off weird but I kind of wish Daddy was in in the Oval Office now yeah you know yeah it's not
00:22:51
that weird well that would be great you know there was a reason they Iran hostages got released the day of uh his
00:23:03
inauguration I know you know because they did the rainies didn't want to deal with Reagan well he was the kind of guy
00:23:09
we will not negotiate with hostages hostages and Jim M car is like well if we nice to him if we're very nice maybe they'll release the hostages they'll be
00:23:21
reasonable they'll be reasonable like us yes I think that's what you know that's the problem that's that's the well with
00:23:28
America we're like that we grew up like that you know the Golden Rule and all that what
00:23:33
we get taught and that we think the whole world is the same way like Leave it to Beaver father you reason with yeah it's a episode of Leave it to Beaver you could talk to Gaddafi and and uh reason
00:23:47
with a guy and you should be more like Warren batty you know if you want to protest but
00:23:53
uh his cousin yeah but uh when you played that way they looked alike but it there's there's really bad bad people bad leaders of Nations out there and
00:24:07
they've grown up in a culture that's based on political violence or uh personal violence or whatever and uh that's what the way they act right so I
00:24:20
agree with you there's not you can't you got to play it a different way certain because we always think if we do the right thing they'll do the right thing
00:24:26
and that doesn't always work and they sort of show their cards no one they're not hiding it no and they don't since
00:24:33
since we are the world literally there is in the DNA in Americans a lot and the people who fought to get here and all the immigration we had and all our ancestors that we want freedom above
00:24:45
everything and we don't want anyone to tell us what to do I think if the government had said
00:24:51
well uh would you take the co shot you don't have to but we'd kind of like you to people might have said okay but once
00:24:57
you tell a certain kind of American you know hey man Fu you you know it's like there's a rebellious side to us you know yeah there is true I I am that too I'm not a very good rule follower yeah I'm
00:25:11
just not you see I don't know if it's based on personal freedom or just I don't know well when we grew up it was question authority that was that was the pumper sticker whoever is the
00:25:23
authority you know just question them they work for us remember it's our government yeah Watergate that really
00:25:31
that did a lot after that and Kennedy getting shot uh you know Bobby Kennedy getting
00:25:37
shot Martin Luther kingh and then Watergate yeah pretty much you know we were I think America was kind of walking wounded that's what back then that was
00:25:48
our formative years dav's a little younger but that was formed everything that's what we came into David's a lot
00:25:54
younger but um I'm like a child here yeah I'm like with my two dad [Laughter] so when people no I'm old and gross anybody
00:26:06
comments he's very bright so David do you have any questions what I do is I take it in I think we all uh got
00:26:13
introduced to Dennis during the let's given us something to talk about video that's where I first uh was introduced
00:26:20
to you do you remember that video the something you're talk about with Bonnie R yes yes I remember that very well yeah
00:26:26
you look very cute in that I was it a lot of fun but a great musician Bonnie rate and you're a music guy how do you even get involved in that uh at the time I had I had a band The
00:26:39
eclectics that was also Bonnie's uh Road Band see nobody knows that that's a good
00:26:46
way how what how was Bonnie she Bonnie she seems cool as [ __ ] huh the most I would been a fan of her since I was like working at AST World in Houston but like
00:26:58
first record came out you know that blues record that was like man it it was like so different from anything in music and I just felt in love with her and her music and then you know that she was one
00:27:10
of the first people I actually ever met I met her like when I got to La about very soon after that and she was just so nice and you cannot give her a
00:27:22
compliment she just that's her only fault she won't take a compliment yeah she will not do it and uh not me but uh
00:27:31
that's what's great about you took a com by the way you you you got into one of her best song that song is great this
00:27:37

one of their favorite sketches they ever wrote on on S it was beautiful that got stuck in my head that was hilarious you
00:28:51
played the crazy pilot mhm and that Mike Myers was on the show at that time yeah
00:28:58
did you do sprockets I I was on sprockets sprockets did you touch the monkey yes you did touch
00:29:06
touch that was my favorite part of that the arbitrary what a great time to be on the show though how fun yeah that was a great time who was your music remember
00:29:21
uh the Neville Brothers Neville Brothers is that cuz of you who were uh I guess it was but I didn't ask them you know
00:29:28
that was all done it was mysterious how that all happened made yeah they were a great time finished yeah pilot Renegade guy and then mus Mustang coun so they did get you on a six string it's a
00:29:41
pretty funny name for a country western guy or whatever mustang mustang Cal Mustang C still use it MC so what are you want I just finish up
00:29:53
with Reagan a little bit what do you what's your hopes for that have you seen it are you feel great I've seen it yeah
00:29:59
and uh you know we we finished shooting like almost uh four years ago oh for four
00:30:07
years ago be this October when we started Sho the whole thing and uh so it's you know it's been a journey and
00:30:14
then uh the movie got Co yeah that's never happened yeah we got Co like did you get shut down I see the scene where I got Co in this the assassination oh
00:30:25
yeah that's the worst kind yeah in the hospital you know getting by gurnie past all these extras like that into the
00:30:32
morning in a basement with no ventilation you must when this happen with Trump you must know more about assassination attempts just from knowing about the movie so was there any
00:30:44
question that was the last time a president was shot was re and you do it's it's bio I mean you do them young
00:30:50
you're doing middleaged I mean that's also a huge challenge to do you know I I play him from 35 you know yeah when he first came to Hollywood through when he
00:31:00
said goodbye to the American people uh in his letter that when he had uh diagnosed with Alzheimer's beautiful
00:31:07
letter I mean only incredible letter yeah it's just so human yeah and it was you know it was a challenge I mean you know first the just the voice you know because in his younger days he's he's
00:31:19
like way up here you know we all have a kind of a higher pitch and you know eventually get down to I totally agree
00:31:25
where it's well and uh it's that and just meeting so many people that were close to him and one thing I found was that um even to those who were very
00:31:40
close to him probably including Nancy there was kind of a a private place in him that was kind of unknowable a little bit of yeah something there that was kind of separated and distant from the
00:31:53
the rest of the world Nancy was uh who who plays Nancy it'll be Anne Miller okay and she is Nancy she is a Nancy cuz she was in the enforcer right when it
00:32:04
came to Ronnie uh a lot of people would think that but no they just uh or even just they had an there would have not have been a President Reagan without Nancy okay because she was she was just
00:32:19
there for him you know she uh really kind dedicated her life to you know their love and their and his uh his
00:32:31
aspirations and uh but it's you know she wasn't what I call the enforcer or anything like that well I think that she protected him in a different way like when Reagan went to Japan it was a 7-day
00:32:45
trip and Nancy insisted first they go to California rest for a day then they're in Hawaii then they're in about that
00:32:52
rather than just like when they're whipping Biden around you know I mean that is tough at 81 you go there and
00:32:58
back you know she was protective that way um but so did you did you was the assassination attempt did you act that out yeah the whole thing yeah we recreated that okay and that was was
00:33:12
there was James Brady shot and then also yeah someone else right uh James Brady and then also the the Secret Service guy okay uh famous shot where he takes it the gut like that and uh you know the
00:33:25
shot that got Reagan and was actually a ricochet off the car oh either off the bulletproof glass or uh the the metal
00:33:33
and he was going like this you know saying hello to everybody and it caught him right here oh and uh under the arm
00:33:41
you know they it wasn't like four minutes of you know while they clear the they just go they just put a hand on top
00:33:49
of his head shoved him in on top of him he got up and he said gosh you almost broke my ribs he was admonishing the Secret Service for that and then you know they were going to the White House
00:34:01
they weren't going to the hospital because he was okay untouched and then about four or five blocks down he
00:34:08
coughed up some blood and that's what made him go to the hospital okay and he still didn't feel oh wow yeah and if they hadn't done that he would have died for sure the bullet gone here they it
00:34:20
was just the smallest little tiniest little hole but it had stopped like a quarter inch from his heart Jesus it's like Trump with the Trump
00:34:31
with the ear I also thought when they they took him away he doesn't know there could be one
00:34:37
in his back if you're in shock and you're adrenaline I wasn't sure everything was okay you know yeah yeah
00:34:43
same reason yeah exactly I mean you never know and you know I think those guys on the ground I mean they took four
00:34:50
minutes but I they did the right thing you know thinking about other Shooters it seemed to me to that when they got him on the ground what they did cuz he remember he said I want my shoes yeah I
00:35:02
think they basically ripped open his shirt yeah you know and check and checked him everywhere for any kind of
00:35:09
wounds that he might have you know before they got him up knew they could transport him because you don't if somebody shot his shoes what fell what
00:35:20
what what was the shoes well they must have taken off the shoes I don't know maybe they took a stance off maybe they
00:35:26
were when they grab somehow his shoes got off his shoes got got off because they I think they took him off yeah oh they just took him off took the tie off they're just looking yeah they were just looking for any kind of and then they're
00:35:39
like on top of them going okay we got to make a move now yeah and then they got a plan OB then they heard what shooter
00:35:45
they said the shooter's down right that was about 45 seconds did it surprise you
00:35:50
that the guy got close and was wasn't seen incredible it's incredible when you were seeing this video I don't know if it's a policeman or the Secret Service the sniper looking at the bad guy let's
00:36:02
say and he sees him aren't you allowed to just shoot if the guy's got a gun you see a guy laying there with a gun do you
00:36:08
have to wait to get orders or because remember he looked up then there's a shot then he goes down and hits him but
00:36:14
if you've got him in the sights he's wearing camo and he's got the gun so is it just
00:36:20
a rule you can just take a shot well who knows there's a person here between the three of us that is qualified to play
00:36:28
the head of the security team and a a biopic we're going to write a report this is a commission with three you have a commission yeah you'll be the you'll be the hardboiled guy coming and go what
00:36:40
the [ __ ] went on here is I want this perimeter lock down we can take all the lines from every movie we've done three dip shits to figure this out I'm getting too old for this [ __ ] who's your agenc
00:36:51
ca UTA just make just put it in their ear yeah this has got Motion Picture written all over it but yeah we'll find
00:36:58
out we cracked the code right here everyone's like no one come out August 14th yeah so everything we say be falling to sleep on the freeway like
00:37:10
what were they thinking so I think we better shut up right now it's impossible no it'll still be going on knowing the
00:37:17
way it works in America all I can say is thank God we can laugh about it in uh as far as tra goes I mean but that the
00:37:24
firefighter uh who lost his life that's uh we talked yesterday trying to protect
00:37:32
his wife and daughter I can't I'm trying to figure out where he was was there it was was he directly behind grand stand
00:37:38
over between him and the shooter I don't get it but would that the guy Dove on his family to I know when things came up
00:37:46
and uh it's because of all the oh he's okay no one knew right then no someone was not okay yeah you know when they get Trump out you think he's okay okay but no one knew if someone got hit the
00:38:00
randomness of of human existence it's just so tragic you know it really is and heroic of course the Instinct you you
00:38:07
always think the impulse would be to dive on your loved ones but he actually did it yeah yeah Eed himself yeah I think when I watched that or when I was
00:38:19
seeing replays it was so weird to see if Biden or Trump if something happened to them on live TV it would be so disturbing to the it's so
00:38:30
weird because you know it was not since Kennedy where it was like really but no one really saw that they saw a video later but to see it happen real time it
00:38:38
would have shook the [ __ ] out of we all know it would have been the most Gothic thing I talked to a military guy friend
00:38:44
of mine what would have happened would have been beyond what we can imagine yeah and with bright color AK television
00:38:52
globally so it would have been uh terrify just we're all a little still shook from it I definitely was
00:38:58
adrenalized after I saw that it would been one of those things you could never [Music] unsee what was your first I'm going to get away from this because you guys obiously don't know what you're talking
00:39:11
about okay but it's uh it's the Ronald Reagan extravagan ofer August 24th yeah yeah but uh you know I I'm very proud of the movie to tell you the truth of course that speaks volumes editing and
00:39:25
we you know we try it's I don't I don't see it as political uh the film it's you know it's
00:39:32
about a man's life it's not a total Love Letter you know Reagan missed uh you know if you the way his response to AIDS MH at the time was behind the eight a
00:39:47
little bit wanting I think MH you know uh later on I think he came around about it but the initial response was was not there um Iran
00:39:59
Contra I don't think he was involved in it but it was on his watch yeah you know he delegated a lot and I think he would
00:40:08
say things and then those below would carry them out and you know so there's you know
00:40:17
some things which I uh which were not the best but overall I you I myself I think he was the greatest president of the 20th century he and maybe Franklin
00:40:31
Roosevelt MH well he was he was Charming even going back to this but after he got
00:40:37
wounded and just again very Reagan sorry Mommy I forgot to D I forgot but he unit he he did bring Unity to a nation and he he brought us back we
00:40:49
were a declining Nation everything it's very it's so strange about how uh today is so similar you know yeah Carter was in there who I voted for too by the way
00:41:01
you know CU after Watergate you wanted somebody out we wanted somebody outside Nixon yeah yeah and uh Carter like he gave away the B1
00:41:12
bomber he uh you know he and the economy was really down the tubes and crazy you know it just uh 20%
00:41:25
was the interest rates back then you know and that may have been caused by the Vietnam War not just you know
00:41:30
Carter's Administration the 70s was an odd decade it was we felt like we were nation and declining and Reagan came along and really made us feel proud to
00:41:42
be Americans again well and also there's this great picture tip O'Neal was the leader of the Democrats and then Ronald
00:41:49
Reagan and they would go in and have a drink and tell dirty jokes and then Reagan would say what do you need you
00:41:55
know they'd negotiate there's a picture of them coming out just laughing their asses off and that's like as if that
00:42:01
would be uh you know the speaker of the house I don't know Schumer and whatever Trump or being friends so he did rotate that a little bit and he negotiated with the Democrats yeah being like Nancy
00:42:13
Pelosi and Trump uh laughing laughing and you know together for a beer on a Friday afternoon and that's basically the way it was and that they even said at the beginning that you know we're be
00:42:27
bitter enemies until 5:00 and then we're you know we're just a couple of Irishmen having a beer and
00:42:34
they were I did like that Biden called Trump I do like when they there's something some normal things happen in
00:42:40
the world yeah and too it just drops it for a second and it's not going to go away but right you just go okay so we
00:42:46
have real people trying to be real people for a second yeah that was you know that was a time back then which I
00:42:53
think tip O'Neal and Ronald Reagan kind of simplified that yeah I think that's what we need to get back to at least to be able to talk uh back and forth that
00:43:05
would that would be great I don't know sounds so simple yeah it does I mean we pass each other in Street every day we
00:43:11
go into each other's businesses uh no matter what side of and we're polite to each other treat each
00:43:17
other like human beings until you find out there are label and then all of a sudden they're demonized well whoever
00:43:24
made social media I guess uh program the robots to get more views and the robots figured out the way to get more views is to get people angry yeah and so yeah so anyone who's doesn't
00:43:37
know they're being hypnotized into darkness on the worldwide web you know at least be aware that it's trying to
00:43:43
feed you what gets you going so I think I I don't have any answ you something right on the point there and that starts I think with kind of self-examination I tell every human
00:43:55
being I meet whatever their opinion is okay now read the opposite yeah read the opposite yeah I I
00:44:01
I jaapos journal in New York Times they're just in the morning it's a 100 bucks a year each I just go what does
00:44:08
New York Times take what's the wal Street journal's take you know just and you find I find myself watching stuff I
00:44:14
disagree with more because I know my opinions yeah ex everyone would say okay I'm gonna just read the opposite for a week I might learn something yeah that's all you know what I mean uh you know
00:44:25
even if it's that why are why is the other side not even covering this you know sometimes well well censorship by Omission is is is the greatest use of
00:44:36
censorship yeah totally agree and I'd like to see at least more of that well more awareness I mean I I no more in coverage yeah more reporters people who
00:44:49
call themselves journalist actually right uh not giving you their judgment of of something that putting themselves in the story to actually tell the story
00:45:01
to humanize I think that is very I agree 100% that's called journalism I think yeah um there's a quote by Thomas soul Who's an economist I always like in terms of the whole political theater and
00:45:12
the intensity of it there are no Solutions only tradeoffs we are always trying to make better but there's not
00:45:19
like one side has it all perfectly worked out so there's no reason to demonize the other yeah I mean that's
00:45:25
what our country is based on they called it compromise compromise right from the very beginning you you like equality I
00:45:30
like Freedom let's work out a relationship how they work together I would run on a ticket with you just just
00:45:36
for you would run for governor I'd be lieutenant governor in California oh we can Swit I'm just throwing it out what
00:45:42
do I do look at in California you have a better chance in Texas I would have the better chance in Texas yeah but you do
00:45:49
such a great George Bush and I would just do George W most of your impressions say hello to Governor Quaid
00:45:57
that sounds good do it I like being W because he he's he was our fat boy president emotionally and just that kind
00:46:05
of you know it's just a cheerful you get me every time of that and then you also
00:46:11
delated between the him and the father George George I one well education doing well down here quaade podcast fly wall Spade Greg Heather somebody in a room th
00:46:28
points a light thousand points a light coming at you no but to the point that was the most extreme if you reverse
00:46:35
extrapolate whatever interpolate the d I made fun of him he lose the election he
00:46:40
calls me and we become friends people go but I didn't know him while I was doing him you know I didn't know but the
00:46:46
Impressions so silly and dumb it's nothing that's I was was so perfect if if he'd had Twitter back then he might
00:46:52
have been Dana Garney doing that impression of me right now on Saturday Night Live right waving his arms around like a
00:46:59
[ __ ] monkey # dick could have but there was no Twitter I was out there but anyway so we all hope for a better time I'd like to talk about the right stuff I was about to say
00:47:14
any of these movies ring a belled by that movie right stuff I love it I mean just just the right stuff is uh my
00:47:21
favorite movie i' ever done yeah until Reagan actually it kind of after 40 years that sp's been taken over I judge the movies I do I judge by the time I
00:47:31
had on them you know what I mean that you mean the shooting yeah well the the time that I had experience while making it I mean the beginning to the end
00:47:43
Martin she said that to roblo and all all the brat hat guys and he says and they were he just that was his advice just think about do you like who you're working with do you like the job you're
00:47:54
doing don't think about outcome and all that other stuff so that's really interesting that you loved making the
00:48:01
right stuff well I was I was from Houston you know which was Space City and I was right there first grade when
00:48:07
they rolled in the TV so we could watch Alan Shepard go up M the Caps Gordo Cooper was my favorite astronaut he was the youngest he was the rock and roll astronaut and I love that name Gordo and
00:48:22
then you know the book comes out and I read it like in two days and if they ever make a movie of this I would you know gosh I want to I want to play Gordo and I I was not Dennis Quaid back then
00:48:36
sure you you were you done some work just trying to get a job you know that's a while back yeah basically so you had
00:48:43
done a few things and you were lucky to get in just even an audition right I got in for the audition uh because uh
00:48:51
somebody dropped out of the rooll and did I get on there and I got the part and then it turn turned out that Gordo
00:48:57
Cooper lived three miles from me in La over in the valley oh so I called him up oh you got to see him and met him and uh
00:49:06
then uh he turned me on to uh a flight school in Van eyes and I I got my pilot's license while we were while we were making the movie in secret and did that come naturally to
00:49:20
you I mean no I was afraid to fly actually before that I felt like you know you're going to fall out of the sky
00:49:25
I still have a I don't really like it yeah but I had this teacher my my instructor was Bud Wallen and he was he
00:49:33
was three years to se your pants W he was three years younger than Aviation itself and you can solo if you want to
00:49:41
but you don't have to that was this thing and uh it was he got me through it had that on the side of the plane you can solo if you want to but you don't have must be scary as [ __ ] seat of my
00:49:52
pants falling oh I did was after I got my license I yeah really is it really to really scare yourself the first time even if you're good is it just terrifying it's it's a license to kill yourself until you you get a until you
00:50:06
get like an instrument rating on top of that you know cuz to scary anything can happen you're by yourself what feel I was lucky John Kennedy was kind of you know God love him you know I don't think
00:50:19
he really had any business uh flying that night yeah it's common thing of the disorientation you can't tell up from down no yeah you're just completely like when you do
00:50:31
your instrument training they put a hood on you you take off and they put a hood on you that's like this just you know
00:50:37
covering the only thing you can see is the dashboard with the instruments you don't can't see outside and you have to
00:50:44
fly for maybe two hours like that and then they take the you get 50 ft above the runway and they take it off and you see if you you're there or not did John of Kenny Jr get that you have the your inner ear is telling you that you're in
00:50:59
a turn that you're at an angle and so you're constantly trying to at first trying to level what you think is the the wing but your instruments are saying you're straight and level wow but you're
00:51:11
going to trust your inner ear damn so you're trust that's the thing you have to S don't take pilot L don't don't
00:51:18
leave the house but that that was something else and then Chuck Jagger was on the set every day so he's arguably
00:51:26
like the coolest badass uh test pilot or is the test pilot of the of of all time
00:51:33
nobody will ever touch him he was he was checked out in 192 separate aircraft it was and uh he locked us in a room and told us his whole story going
00:51:45
back to from when he was a lawnmower repairman in West Virginia you know firm kid to uh like World War II and you know five uh shooting shootdowns in uh World
00:51:58
War II and uh and the whole test pilot stuff X15 I think the first speed of sound yeah he never he never that was the X1 X15 he never flew okay but he was
00:52:11
out of it by that time but uh he was incredible human being was like hanging out with John Wayne for the thing about mon in that movie it's just so interesting when you don't know anything
00:52:23
and really get just the idea of these these young men or whatever age they were and how you kept going back and forth with the German scientist you we want a window all that stuff right and
00:52:35
what a tin can it was and what the technology was so lowy The Bravery or the craziness I don't know what how did you well you know that the only thing
00:52:46
like I said is my favorite movie I love making and it was nine months I was you know wish it never ended when I was
00:52:53
doing it but the one thing that I think it's kind of the Achilles heel about the film is the way they uh treated uh Gus Gom you know second
00:53:06
second went into space you know lost his capsule went to the bottom of the ocean
00:53:11
right he blew the shoot or what was the phrase yeah screwed the pooch screwed the they say they were always trying to
00:53:17
get to the top of the pyramid right and then if you screwed up that was you know it was your fault it wasn't a machine
00:53:23
even if it broke that's is that's kind of like you panicked if you if you pull that thing before
00:53:28
you're supposed to you lost your cool lost your cool you panic worst thing Could Happen yeah now do you think that was fair or unfair not fair unfair
00:53:35
completely unfair I it was used as a device a literary device by Tom Wolf and then and Phil uh uh carried it over and
00:53:45
and directing it and it but it wasn't true I mean his you know his family is still alive this is more people saw the movie than remember all those things
00:53:57
Legacy but what happened was is that they it was the first time they were trying out that uh the escape hatch that they put needed an escape hatch and they
00:54:09
didn't take into account that when you go into space and you come back down to earth the pressure building up and stuff
00:54:14
like that uh inside the capsule and the air outside so when he hit the water the
00:54:20
escap hatch actually blew itself and then the Hat the the spacecraft went 16,000 ft down and and his he was filled up with water in his spacit he barely
00:54:32
made it outside it was heroic how I actually got out of that spacecraft and uh so that's what he gets and if he had screwed the pooch then why did they give him the first Gemini Mission and why did
00:54:46
they give him the first uh Apollo mission where he wound up getting fried on the on the Launchpad right burned a yeah he was actually the one that
00:55:00
because the astronauts were also kind of in charge of quality control that he was constantly complaining about how uh uh
00:55:08
how shoddy the these things were put together MH in the electrical system and that's what what happened in the pure
00:55:14
oxygen I I remember that day too but to his legacy Ed what happened I that's the
00:55:20
one my one regret of that film well we have 1300 do is the dog okay she's just agreeing she's just agreeing that's her talking
00:55:32
it's snoring and there's a fart once in a while it's not actually snoring it's kind of like her talking right peachy
00:55:39
peachy yeah Peach's like that jeez riveting convo incredibly comfortable she goes
00:55:49
everywhere with me she's a Sandler too always has dogs like that right Bulldogs does he yeah yeah yeah it's got Bagel right
00:56:02
now so then you go into what what's the movie that turned you into a 8 sex symbol was it it was sort of EAS was the one in New Orleans yeah I guess so Big
00:56:13
Easy Big E Big Easy yeah who's in that ell barin oh yeah that was movie that was a cool movie yeah atmospherically Jim McBride uh directed that and he was
00:56:27
kind you know he had just done um breathless with Richard Gear and he was kind of a he was actually over there you know during all that French New Wave stuff in in France and he kind of
00:56:40
brought that sensibility to the film and uh it was it was so much fun so they tell me uh to do that movie okay uh we can read through the lines a little bit
00:56:54
they can't all be but but in New Orleans we were in New Orleans for like six months you nans nans yeah
00:57:02
that's right exit you know all that stuff that that world you you were literally riding a rocket uh once that once Dennis quig came into being the
00:57:14
movie star Kevin that movie came out and it it was I remember it was like it didn't really really do well really it kind of resonated it was kind of down the line you know and then so only time
00:57:26
this ever happened in my whole career is like the second weekend they said it went up it went up yeah that's almost and then it kept going up and then it turned into this kind of
00:57:38

00:58:15

00:58:20
the summer I remember when I was like 12 and it didn't do well I just fell on its face and then they brought it out
00:58:29
again in the in the fall and it was all about fade Way's wardrobe it was huge hit oh she was I saw it in the theaters I was a little disturbed by it I didn't quite know what was going on at certain
00:58:42
times around the bed and he had a gun I didn't know quite what it meant what's happening yeah he no love Dan was scared
00:58:49
I did see Enemy Mine is that a fun make you were on a planet with Lou gos Jun yes that that
00:58:57
was affecting I thought that was really landed emotional yeah I I do too I stranded astronaut meets that movie L was like he was so incredible
00:59:09
he talking the whole time really yeah yes I did see it and then Inner Space interpace which is probably the uh most
00:59:25
seen movie uh worldwide that I've been in the back of India and I really in space yeah that is that your character's name you go guy you go
00:59:42
guyy you're very tiny in the movie you're not so tiny now you're bigger than the movie time so I have a a hindo cardiologist so
00:59:54
I I get say Dr PK Shaw who won't let me not there was nothing not racist or there was nothing racist about that not at all politically correct Great Balls
01:00:05
of Fire another one I saw these in the theater another incredible high energy memorable movie The Great Balls of Fire Jerry Lee Lewis who was like 18 when he
01:00:17
made it uh or 16 I mean he was 21 and a crazy man on the piano for people don't remember him it's showman yeah he was on the set every day I didn't play piano
01:00:29
when I got that role but I had a year to to prepare for it and luckily I was on cocaine at the time because that will make you obsessed about anything and so I was 12 hours okay a
01:00:43
day yeah for our listeners the movie ended six months after the movie came out I was in rehab uh for that by the way but for that been over 30 years for
01:00:54
for that but uh but you were playing the piano really pretty skilled I mean very and I I stuck with it Jerry was one of
01:01:02
my uh he was teachers he was teaching the piano yeah Jerry Lee probably his only student he ever had how do they do he had a Young Bride right how do they do that on a movie where you have to
01:01:14
they have to hire someone 18 to play how old was she uh Winona was she turns yeah
01:01:20
when Ona writer she turned I think she turned 177 oh and she play 13 maybe 14 whatever
01:01:27
what's that how old was she in the movie in real life uh was on the cusp of 12 13
01:01:33
oh and he was 21 and they were cousins and uh yeah you know like it really seems outrageous and this is in no way
01:01:44
in defense of anything all I could say is about the you know culturally that the you know back in the day at Farm families there's a reason that you have bar mins and Bat Mitzvah it means that
01:01:57
you are grown up and that's when you know people got married back then at that age yeah you know uh Henry VII was
01:02:06
14 when he got married to and uh it's you know historically that's otherwise we wouldn't be here people early but you know it's still did people flip out back
01:02:17
in the day when he actually did it yes they did once they got it that no one here knew about it in the States and
01:02:24
it's when they went to England and she was was tagging along and some reporter in the welcoming airport press
01:02:31
conference asked her who are you little girl Miss Jerry Lee Le that was the end of his career just like that oh really it turned off just
01:02:42
like that and uh it was done you know it was like he was huh he was as big as Elvis at that point Elvis in fact was uh had just gone into the military and he
01:02:56
was king of rock and roll and that was the end of that [ __ ] and then he just trundled around but he never really got
01:03:02
headlining gigs or record deals or a lot less it it you know it was about eight years went by mhm and uh he got into country music okay which was his roots
01:03:15
yeah but he was huge in country music really he did come back so he slowed down the music then because in the 50s it was really BB oh he'd still do that
01:03:26
yeah I went on tour with him uh couple of gigs when before no with with his band and his like Lear jet you know six guys jammed jammed
01:03:41
25 I had a guyb they pulled G's on I saw he he would just go all night I saw him
01:03:48
when we were recording the music uh sit at the piano for 10 hours without even getting enough to go to the bathroom yeah 10 hours all yeah unmedicated Jerry okay Jerry in
01:04:02
this back pocket he had a 38 yep and in this other pocket he had a bottle of seub seven and that he soaked his pills in
01:04:13
most probably because I know people who took a like one sip of that stuff and went went down show business is fascinating the amount of self-destruction in artistic
01:04:25
people and he was but he was like he was a really sweet genuine person and then he could be like a 14-year-old schoolyard bully at the same time and uh
01:04:37
but he was genuine and he was like there'll never be another like him he was he was a genius at the piano yeah
01:04:43
when you go super famous to that happens to goes away it must screw with your head so much yeah it's weird and plus he
01:04:50
probably wasn't ready for fame anyway no one really is I think we've all had like many versions of that
01:04:56
haven't we yeah I mean not Scandal if you want to say Scandal but you know you the es and flows suddenly you know the tap is turned off because of this or that for oh AB absolutely but I always
01:05:09
go back I make iWood ja Hollywood jail one bad movie Hollywood jail but I you know to be able just to make a living was always the goal like I'm working right now exactly and it's extraordinary
01:05:21
to to lose that humility about it because there by the Grace of who God you know there still is
01:05:28
some Whimsy to this whole chapter and brilliant people might have just missed I knew comedians that were brilliant and
01:05:36
just missed the timing of getting on SNL and and have a fine they do stand up and
01:05:41
they're fine but there's a lot of uh yeah Whimsy to it it's hard to get cocky when you see people better than you all
01:05:47
the time when you go they just didn't it didn't happen yeah we all grew up with people like that in classes that you
01:05:54
know we're so lucky to be here and you're exactly right about that the you milit just getting wanting to get a
01:06:01
job yeah I mean I still carry that around cuz it's like it makes it real and it makes it enjoyable actually oh absolutely doesn't it yeah cuz then it's just fun I'm still in the game here by
01:06:13
the way something you did recently I just love I just want to insert this because I I loved uh Billy Bob
01:06:19
Thorton uh everything he does and I love Goliath and I love the season where you were the bad guy yeah it with with Billy
01:06:26

01:06:33
bad gu Bob and I have been friends for 25 30 years yeah he's he's just he's in his own frequency and it's so fun to be around we're both very much alike cuz we're both down at the bottom we're

01:07:01
