00:03:15
no Tom Han it's oh the guest uh the host yeah all the all the hosts and so the when I watch it now I'm like oh I could maybe do it now because that it's just like they're much nicer and warmer it
00:03:27
seems like and it feels I don't know it feels like that you used to have to come on and kill in the uh in your opening
00:03:34
monolog interesting observation so now the host don't have to be no they they are they're really funny but it's it's
00:03:41
much more gentle and kind about they're like I'm so honored to be here this is so exciting emal almost serious yeah
00:03:48
little political statement yeah and and a little bit of like this is you know what SNL meant to them growing up and
00:03:54
how much it means to them to be there now like even you know leev shriber did a whole like this is such a big deal to
00:04:01
me and I was like huh and Martin Short is on top of a piano [Applause] I he's crushing right and so it's not as hard
00:04:11
on the jokes as it was back when it would did they reach out to you I would imagine during your 10 years or 11 years there was there was a a soft there were some you weren on
00:04:25
NBC they're pretty loyal you were not on NBC right you're ABC or no I was on n see when David um tracked me down I
00:04:33
don't knowy that was Ed I did a show called Ed oh that is the terminology yes yeah
00:04:38
tracked I was doing Ed when you were doing he stalked you he stalked me we were at this I was with Willie
00:04:46
gonar yes was and that he was on he invited me as he's like I've had this said to me more than once you look like somebody's got a nice dress hanging in the closet it's like the day before some
00:04:58
award show clearly everyone else has dropped out could you possibly Chuck on your dress and show up that wasn't me that was
00:05:05
Willie no that was Willie okay so I went with Willie and you were there with Steve latan and you walked by me and
00:05:12
then walked right back again and go hey do I know you I know you what's up and I said no you no I think I said do we have the same Barber
00:05:24
Spade has patter with women I mean just just even the attendant or whoever you do you have a good they like the funny matters my family when I started dating
00:05:36
David my family was like oh dear God they're like what and I said funny counts I don't need to hear behind counts that's the name of your next book foney counts go does it count that much
00:05:49
honey counts it counts a lot because you like Laura Michael said once you can't marry a face because eventually you
00:05:56
could you don't even see the face you so you have to marry a personality what's better than someone makes you laugh all
00:06:02
day long right David so David David tried to track me down through but this where he shot the channels are we
00:06:08
allowed to swear on your show what the [ __ ] I don't think we can say track me down again but we can swear how did you
00:06:13
what kind of tracking device did he use private detective he had no a publicist okay which was such a [ __ ] SE I want
00:06:21
to be tracked down isn't it flattering to be TR down a little bit not by a publicist there's no other way by
00:06:28
Telegram figured out when you figured out that cuz the first I told you I was a a dog walker okay cuz you were like I
00:06:35
know you I no cuz I and I was like if he doesn't know what am I'm going to give you my resume no you had no idea who I
00:06:42
was you just you did the right thing thought I was cute I said I was a dog walker you're like and then I ran into
00:06:48
another party somewhere and then the next thing I knew I had you did track me down through you figured out I would had
00:06:54
been Happy Gilmore with Sandler okay but we anytime mentioned I try to do that and she did the best but you didn't you didn't bother to go through Adam you didn't go through anybody personal I didn't think I want Adam knowing my
00:07:07
personal business what this is a Conan Johnson PR firm and we're looking for was literally this woman uh I don't
00:07:14
remember her name but he she tracked me down I had a bunch of a couple calls from her David would like to talk to you
00:07:20
David would like and I was like [ __ ] that they would like to see in his office you literally were [ __ ] that well I got like [ __ ] that a publicist
00:07:28
you were on Ed right I was on Ed it was not a lascivious [ __ ] that it was like no it was not like I'm GNA [ __ ] that no
00:07:34
it was it was no it was not that for sure it was not that it was not that and then but that you did that perfectly I was living in New York in this building
00:07:44
uh I remember I was in the gym really early watching TVs with no you know they had with no no volume and I see that you
00:07:52
had been uh tased by Skippy well okay that's a story we have around you haven't explored this on this podcast it's been mentioned though David was tased by skipping I know the whole
00:08:04
story Tas and beaten well taze was the beginning to disarm me disarm the mus night of Terror my attention did I mention that the volume was not on on the TVs I was doing my best so what did
00:08:18
you what did you anyone who gets tazed I'm going to go to Arby's with yeah definitely I no I
00:08:26
was like now where was that scrap of paper I wrote down from the publicist giv me his number so I called him and I
00:08:31
was like hey that's when you called me about that that's when I called you I go hey it's you your opener are you all
00:08:38
right I just saw you got tased by Skippy and you said now will you go out with me no I said no my well I realized my
00:08:44
dick's still working cuz I got all excited I'm sorry can we take that out well wait a minute was it di you said dick working said now you go with me now will you go out with me sounds
00:08:55
more like d now now will you go out with me I had to get t to get a date after I
00:09:01
was laid up for a while in very pain I uh started to come to my sens I don't even remember these calls because it was
00:09:07
it was so much pain so much calls so much pain I didn't even know about vikin until right after this so uh anyway
00:09:14
about vik by the time we date yeah you little V chippies yeah I remember a lot of that oh yeah I had the Puka shell made a viking in at your necklace everybody needs to
00:09:26
know about David is that he's the most like sensitive um delicate flour who has low blood sugar has to carry around a little rat bag full of like turkey and there's protein bars all over this
00:09:38
mansion and and like even though having a puppy he wants to go like party but it's at like 6 p.m. 6:30 and bed and bed at 8:45 but we're Kindred Spirits we
00:09:51
like to eat at 3:30 we ask the restaurants to open I mean I love both of you guys so much I can't even tell you I want to go into your career and your stuff and
00:10:04
everything you've done to influence me uh you know I wanted to be Dana Carvey I I wanted to be that's my whole reason for getting on S live and that was my whole thing oh you said David's Spade
00:10:18
wrong I think that's age it's that's age related because David that's I wanted to
00:10:25
be I was sitting behind at rther with a knife well yeah you were you were my you
00:10:30
were my surrogate you were my standing sometimes I doing the church chat rehearsals David had to get the dress on
00:10:35
and sit in there for camera blocking which I thought just for a few minutes can you sit in there Dana is resting but
00:10:41
Jimmy you were 12 when I got on SNL and that's what I call the Peak formative year it's like when I was listening to Monty Python or whatever gets in your brain at that age and through high
00:10:53
school so I I appreciate you bro thank you I can't tell you how much I would I I was such a SNL nerd I would uh I would record it every Saturday night I would be by myself I wouldn't be uh I I didn't
00:11:06
want friends over I didn't want anyone around me my parents I didn't want anyone near me I just wanted to study the show and watch it and I I videotape
00:11:12
it then I remember like my favorite sketches and then I would go to parties like uh whatever on the next week or
00:11:19
whatever and I would bring vide tapes with me with the best clips of SNL like I was like a human uh YouTube uh just
00:11:26
going or watch this part and watch this thing but I mean I was like I loved the chopping
00:11:32
broccoli she went downtown but can I tell you she's a lady I know if I didn't know her she be I didn't know did you ever
00:11:47
put that out like is that out on Spotify or something no the only thing I want to say which was mind blowing a few years
00:11:54
back when I did your show and then I just it wasn't my idea but all of a sudden they go uh Jimmy wants to do Cho
00:12:01
and broccoli with an orchestra remember that it was [ __ ] crazy so that was the mic drop of CH Brock there was a string orchestra and then I was playing CH
00:12:12
Brockley on a baby gr I had a herble hair day cuz New York water just flattened it but anyway that's just my
00:12:19
but i cho broccoli and I took it really far she chopped she that's 20 that's a 20 minute bit in my standup you can imagine but anyway that's so you Jimmy we do have a a kism
00:12:33
there's a connection to this musicality of what we do and the way you do Impressions and everything I brought a
00:12:40
guitar I mean I'm in my office so will you play something for us that'd be that'd be awesome you know Dana while
00:12:46
while Jimmy's fussing around I have to say that if you're on SNL and you can play an instrument Jimmy's like the
00:12:52
perfect SNL guy he plays an instrument he's marginally good-looking he um voted sexi as one of
00:13:00
the voted one of the tallest hosts U of the year and he he's got a harmonic [ __ ] guy I know he's I know he's going to do that Supernatural he's
00:13:12
either going to do he's going to do one of three either Dylan Lennon or Springsteen which are all brilliant
00:13:18
dillian Dylan's won but I thought maybe Neil Young too oh Neil Young deal yeah just give me anything this this I'm being entertained Now by my guest Neil Young harmonica like he plays it
00:13:30
differently than Dylan did Neil Young plays harmonica like with the song so he's [Music]
00:13:41
like there something changed yeah it's good now yeah can you hear it now now we hear it
00:13:49
perfect okay all right so like Neil Young Neil Young plays the harmonica like with the the with the with the with
00:13:55
the notes yeah so it's [Music] like David and Dana sitting in a tree Dana and Dave we're just a fly on the wall down the hall of SN
00:14:24
L that's pretty good s l SN Dana Dave anyone ever call you Dave some people do you have to you have to get in
00:14:37
the real tight circles and then Dylan's faster Dylan's like yeah a lot of up and
00:14:44
back like he hits the highest note of the harmonica and just screams it so like yeah is yeah it yeah this the dat
00:15:03
[Applause] [Music] he runs out of stuff he hits the harmonica yeah exactly when he runs out of lyrics have you heard Rough and Ready
00:15:15
his latest album Rough and Ready Bob Dylan yes God it's brilliant it good soon after midnight is a masterpiece but he's got his new voice which is well he has that's what I mean that this other
00:15:27
voice I don't I haven't really tried to do it but it's pretty special it's really soon after midnight and I got a
00:15:35
date with a fa queen with the fairy queen I love seeing him in see him in concert cuz sometimes he doesn't feel like performing and he's just out there and he's going
00:15:47
like and every's like oh man this is weird and then he's like how does it feel and you oh I love this song oh my
00:15:57
God do you mind if had L called Chevy times did you ever meet Farley in the old days Chris Farley yes sir I I did and Lauren
00:16:09
had asked me to talk to him about the drug issue you know Chevy if you could talk
00:16:17
to Chris might help might not but might I like your Lauren it's kind of quiet will
00:16:24
you do a little Lauren first yes um it's that thing of like if you could talk to OB Chris you know about drugs it might
00:16:32
be like a really good thing I love his so I did talk to him and how'd it go well he didn't have enough drugs for both of us
00:16:43
so that's a classic he been these been Landing all day for me I mean they're hitting for me
00:16:50
they're hitting once you get into his comic frequency it's like it's just fun our t Greg Greg is laughing very hard um you
00:17:03
wished you'd stayed longer at SNL I kind of wish I'd did a couple more seasons Christ I feel like I'm here longer than S um never never set up you we can
00:17:15
adjourn any time actually I do I I do thank you Yes actually we're now man wife yeah I do uh that's funny too how you did like 40 huh well how tall are
00:17:29
you thank you 58 and a half on a good day so you no actually the the answer to your question uh I forgot the [ __ ] question you could have done movies
00:17:40
during the summer and stayed uh on the show oh you know I would have loved to estate and I really mean that I mean I
00:17:47
left because of a girl uh I had a picture of the girl and I kept saying I'm GNA marry this look at you beautiful and Lauren kept saying
00:17:59
no she isn't and and oh and Doug Doug Kenny from the National Lampoon right became one of my best friends actually became my best friend
00:18:14
and uh uh that's all I got love did he write Animal House did he write Animal House
00:18:26
Doug yeah he was one of the writers I think that U Harold stepped in there too Harold Ramis it was always uh what's his name who wrote these things the book or the thing uh John was it Landis no
00:18:40
Jonathan John Hughes John Hughes yeah uh but U TR with uh what was the movie I did with Harold um vacation honey right thank you vacation uh yeah de and Harold
00:18:54
completely rewrote it yeah yeah you have to rewrite him Hughes oh I see cuz he's not really he
00:19:01
was not comedic like you guys he he not Jewish oh well if he gives you a blueprint of a great movie you can fix it chff uh during the podcast puts his hands up like he's holding a loaf of
00:19:14
bread and looks at of bread show it his uh that's quite a Loa I know it's quite a Loa I uh Ed wants a
00:19:27
slate oh boy oh oh blabby do you do a Lauren impression everybody everyone in this
00:19:42
oral history of Satur night life only because I've never met anyone like that you know what I'm saying and like no one
00:19:48
has and I was I'd seen Austin Powers a million times before I actually got the job so then I went there and I'm like so
00:19:56
wait he's not admitting that this is that this is totally that that sounds like a new sketch this is that this is totally that this is totally that
00:20:08
yeah well did you have any Lauren isms we sometimes collect you know things that he says to people you know the
00:20:15
initial one was never never um never underestimate the value of water is a kind of a a touch stone for a lot of people yeah and he also like has a way
00:20:27
of like summing up large occurrences in in the world it's like yeah because you know Elvis was a twin so it's that it's like what what what does that mean um
00:20:39
Hitler was a painter Hitler was a painter and so it's all that so it's it's that War II I never know what that
00:20:46
is yeah yeah I don't know I don't know what you mean you're who should take over for Lauren uh Keen do you have any
00:20:51
ideas any who's good enough to handle that job Higgins hands down Higgins you know what I mean like I have it on a
00:20:57
list Steve Higgins yeah I mean Higgins is a no-brainer um but Eric kenward is out there you know like Aaron Doyle you know the people that have been there for a longer period of time I think Colin
00:21:11
you know myself I don't know Chay like we can all handle it like if we all wanted to stick entertain if they if
00:21:19
they approach you yeah like why not it'll keep me in New York it'll keep me you know in a stable environment which
00:21:26
is hard for an actor I'm just going to write write your name down for a second I'm just keep write it down put it in
00:21:32
the universe thanks that's great I I think you um uh we don't have pens I don't have I'm disorganized zth Meers and Tina Fay as yeah all of them you know what I mean like anybody that's
00:21:44
especially been a person with a pencil in their back pocket for a week you know just fishing for jokes and like knows
00:21:50
the structure of the show so Seth Tina any one of them I think you know that have had a good run at it and enjoy it
00:21:58
they they can get it you know you're interesting because you're 20 years you know every in andout you know what's
00:22:05
going if you just perked your ears up to like budgets and stuff you could figure out pretty but there's also like the
00:22:11
other element where Lauren is such a rockstar and he has so many like you know pick up the phone favor kind of you know moments that he can make happen the show the the network or the studio just
00:22:24
deals with them and keeps them away from us you know Keeps Us protected like he's
00:22:29
just an OG so someone that can continue that kind of thing and like make it a safe space for us and then also make a phone call and get a legend in there at the last minute if it if it needs to to
00:22:41
be that yes there's a lot of off Lael things that he's doing that go beyond executive producer and I think he does always develop a fondness for his cast members you can feel it you know I mean
00:22:53
he's talked very nicely about you almost in a paternal way with other cast members you become comes the de facto
00:22:59
dad that no one ever had or something even though I'm three years older than him he's still kind of my dad yeah
00:23:06
that's so crazy yeah but uh that must be a crazy dynamic because yeah he's the one we all kind of turn to because if
00:23:13
he's not happy like you know the shit's not getting on you know what I'm saying like if he's not [ __ ] with it then that's that's the end all be all so I've
00:23:20
gone to him for a lot of different you know nothing pertaining to the show kind of advice because he just gives that air basically like you know if you have a question or
00:23:32
you know if you have a situation we can help you with it you know nothing's too you know go ahead too terrible that we
00:23:39
can't fix it yeah oh yeah and my when I was sort of you call it Wilderness years or raising a family whatever you want to
00:23:45
call it but then I ran into the Lauren he's just like he said um everyone knows who you
00:23:51
are you know it's just Lauren and a very supportive little like you know whenever
00:23:56
you're ready you just can do it some more um but yeah he's brilliant at those kind of um just been there seen it all and then stepdad to me because he used
00:24:07
to ground me and hit me okay you want to talk talk about that hitting part no a lot of people did um let's break some news we got a trend we got a trend man handful you were like the spoiled child
00:24:21
David's like a little boy and you have to take care of him Dana will you bounce him on your
00:24:28
knee David need a Spanky David David he need a little Spanky and he's in a Timeout don't talk to him I'm not going to use any sort of object or or or
00:24:39
spatula I'm going to go full hand yeah but it'll be just on the bottom skin on skin that's good for Lauren skin on
00:24:53
skin in the soap opas they would come in and go straight to the the bar there was never a TV on in the soap offers right
00:25:01
and so I would make up a makeshift bar and have Kool-Aid in a in a vase that you could see through uh that was my
00:25:08
caraffe and then I would have uh ice and um and tongs to put and then when my mother would walk in I would stand the way the camera shots you know how and soap offers open Out camera the camera
00:25:22
comes in and then the person is talking to them from the back of it like a rack Focus yeah kind of mhm right so I my
00:25:30
mother would come in and I go mother you startled me I didn't hear you come in mother you start yeah and she would
00:25:37
go like this who the [ __ ] left the uh the door open with the air conditioner on and I would go like this in my mind
00:25:46
cut God so your survival mechanism was to almost live inside a soap opera was actual I lived inside and no one knew what I was doing it was really crazy
00:25:58
myself and then I would watch like Little House on the Prairie I'd go upstairs put my hair in plats you know
00:26:04
in braids and they get on my Prairie pajamas and I would come down and my mom would be in the kitchen I go ma when's
00:26:12
PA coming and she goes what I go when's PA coming home and she goes I don't know
00:26:17
but you better have [ __ ] money cut so it was like my dad didn't live with us so it was like whatever you know and in my mind I was constantly
00:26:31
cut cuz it wasn't going the way you wanted it wasn't going like a TV show you can't curse on TV and I'm just and she and then I remember I would watch like um The Ten Commandments was just on
00:26:45
the other night oh the movie The Original because it's Easter Easter is coming so they you know and I used to live for the Ten Commandments you know and um and I would be watching it and
00:26:57
I'd go in the other room my mom and her friend are smoking cigarettes and you know talking and I would get a ladle and
00:27:03
I would give it to fill it with water and give it to my mom and say Mom can you hand this to me and she's like what
00:27:09
what do you want Shar and I go just hand it to me and then my mom's friend would say honey I'll hand it to you and I go
00:27:15
no no no and my mom go I'll hand it to you just give it to me so I she would take it and then she would hand it to me
00:27:21
and I would drink it down really fast and I go you are kind I will dwell in this land and goes dwell in the other
00:27:29
room um have you done a one woman show about this relationship and then and then my friend
00:27:36
I I I would say to my mom's friend you are strong you stood up to the Malachite and so you were kind you remember that from well I just know the Cades I I actually read the Bible after
00:27:48
I saw it when I was like eight or something I started reading the Bible after I saw are you serious oh yeah I
00:27:53
was just like maybe this is true man this looks pretty real I was like you know I was like seven I it was like a
00:27:58
documentary to me I'm gonna get to the bottom of this religions thing and I'm G to open the book he's like real thing
00:28:06
and then he goes oh there is one at the library let me delve into this a little bit Dana that's adorable and years later
00:28:14

00:28:26
oh my God that awesome it's so surreal those kind of things but back to this I just want to
00:28:32
couch this for a second so your mother's you probably love love she's very aggressive there's a lot of tension in the house you escape into these shows and use three dimensional props to kind
00:28:44
of become a part of these calming shows the Ten Commandments did you have a crush on Michael Landon I was going to ask cuz wasn't he sort of a Teen Idol in a way for a while yeah um uh well Little
00:28:56
House in the prayer no I mean did I I like the blind girl I thought he was David's like what I could have done with she couldn't see that I'm not that
00:29:08
cute I would just tell her I was not with that lighting not with this lighting you can't see him listeners but David's got Gothic kind of lighting on
00:29:18
him my hair looks cool and No One Believes Me and I don't care I'm going to the we have great hats I got to you have a hat on well because I I was
00:29:25
throwing you guys off cuz there was so much shade in my face and lighting it look crazy so Sherry this is so
00:29:32
interesting I'm just so you know when I think about you uh as a performer just the word that comes in is committed not
00:29:39
as a woman well as a woman that's a whole other that's a that'll be our second hour we'll delve into your
00:29:45
sexuality and everything you know no you're a very attractive question you know sue me and I we adore you but were you as committed I mean
00:29:56
you're so committed you're watching watching these shows little kid you got props and you're talking like Biblical characters to your mom what the [ __ ] are
00:30:02
you doing I so love you mother how did this inform you as a performer I mean obviously you developed an ear and you
00:30:08
were theatrical but you'd never done anything official till you go into Groundlings and then how many years into
00:30:16
that were you in the main company and ready for SNL how long did it take um I did two years of classes and then two
00:30:23
years in the Sunday company writing and Performing every Sunday and uh and then I got into the main company I was in the main company for a year and a half and I would say that SNL was my first job wow
00:30:37
and that was you were prepped enough right because you were doing pretty much exactly SNL pretty much yeah I mean I
00:30:43
just kept the same kind of writing and um and just uh you know just kept there's you know I
00:30:55
learned the difference between theater and television I remember writing something in uh in the Groundlings that
00:31:02
that did really well but it died and I remember and I remember um Quinn Colin Quinn saying Sher I don't know if this is going to come off the
00:31:14
way it did in theater because when you talk out in theater on a stage the the audience can imagine the fourth wall if you do it on television you just look
00:31:26
crazy if you're talking out you know what I'm saying and I did not know the difference between that and I remember it was Kevin spacy and I had done this
00:31:36
character where she has a party every year in the same party and only two people show up but she acts like there's a lot of people there she says all the things that you say when it's a really
00:31:49
packed party you know what I mean did you find parking um excuse me I just got a request um the the the uh uh the KAG is beat we're a young party the KAG is
00:32:01
beat we got to put I'm going to pass a hat around and all these things and I did it with Kevin spacy and it just died because of what he said because a lot of
00:32:13
it was me talking out to people that weren't there and it's kind of confusing but um and then I remember Lauren always saying Sherry do you know where your
00:32:23
camera is and um I thought it was a trick question I go um yeah no you don't and because the people at home would like to see the people at home would like to see you too and I didn't even
00:32:34
know what he [Music] meant Kanasas is now you play basketball M did I just the only thing I ask I'll
00:32:46
ask this first can could you touch the rim I could could you dunk a baseball I could dunk a baseball yes I probably dunked a basketball 10 times in my life shut up during a game with a referee I
00:32:59
was just talking about this yesterday any Witnesses there's basketball going on right now you know a lot of basketball so I'm just yeah so duning on
00:33:06
everyone's mind or1 61 what's your wingspan oh probably 61 probably nothing nothing spectacular pretty good vertical
00:33:13
to get a basketball it was also adrenaline I also had a lot of friends that could jump and so it's a little bit of peer pressure that way too where just
00:33:18
come on just shut up and do it but I I do remember if I dun 10 times six of them uh six of those times were one day
00:33:24
after playing basketball like in between juniors senior year you know no no sophomore junior year like during summer
00:33:31
that's unreal dude if my dad put up a 9 foot hoop and it [ __ ] all the kids cuz we were awesome on the OT and then we go
00:33:38
to high school what the hell air after a yeah exactly I can get the net I can dunk on the net 9 foot is awesome it's it's it was a uh it's less of a big deal now I feel like you know
00:33:50
shooting threes off the dribble is what it's all about now cuz of you know Steph Curry and whatnot but back in yeah back when I was playing dunking was the
00:33:56
biggest deal in the world I mean that's the we I was the the test market for those strength shoes you know that they
00:34:02
you know really that would kind of create yeah I mean I had a pair for the legit reason I would jump roping them
00:34:07
all the time lot of lot of time spent on that but yeah you know when they do it now it's they go past half court it's
00:34:15
like one step two step shoot it and you go Jesus how do you guard you don't know what's happening he changed everything
00:34:21
it's just one two boom and you go and then they make it 90% of the time yeah him Caitlyn Clark on the you know the
00:34:27
women's college you know circuit too I mean it's all all over the place all all over the world yeah just shooting you play Sandler i Adam and I have played I
00:34:35
think we may have played once or twice but not not not enough to have a Scouting Report I hear he's good I know
00:34:43
he gets into it he's competitive too oh yeah yeah what are you doing it's all funny games till the game starts like get open I go what you don't talk to me like that Jesus Happy Gilmore
00:34:57
I'm not he check the call sheet I all right you you are not triggering financing out here buddy we are all the
00:35:03
same no I but um but no he he plays he's played in a game with uh my buddy Sam Jones that I've played in a few times and Buddy Brad Morris but yeah I haven't played maybe once or twice I mean the
00:35:16
probably the best the most fun I'd have playing in the was was hearing the stories of Gary Shandling game than
00:35:21
getting invited to go play uh in that with Sarah silver oh you did yeah and and before and then and then a huge
00:35:28
thing was when when Gary was like hey you can come without Sarah if you want that's a big deal lovely like a lovely sort of cuz I'd read about that game forever like yeah absolutely Sarah you I mean
00:35:41
who were the regulars oh my gosh I mean McKay was there jiller uh Jimmy was there a couple times I I used to go in
00:35:48
the early early not early early days but I there was a run there when I went and I was no good and I sort of got pushed in the background yeah yeah just not the
00:35:55
emails anymore Mugsy boges out there I was I was like uh you know distraction whatever they call it yeah I just watch you on the out there like on the side just like you know we need we need five
00:36:07
to keep it even you go out there and run around circles or a Spud Web I would have been a Spud Web but no I got out of
00:36:12
that quickly I was yeah I was D basketball in high school and our Center was literally 5-3 he controlled the
00:36:18
paint yeah that was when they had D basketball 5 foot tall 91 lbs as a freshman what about you were you always
00:36:24
a bearded stud in high school were you a no I was it was a a beard of acne like any of us right like um no I don't think I could grow a beard until about an hour before I got
00:36:38
here how did your anger Express itself then to you I mean here's the weird thing it's when I was um I mean my childood I was bullied ridiculously half of it the
00:36:50
bullying because I was just a little guy and then I got bust to school so I got I
00:36:56
was a guy and I was black right hard so it's like I'm getting double bullied I would if I was white I would have probably got bullied too but it was just like you're also supposed to be tough
00:37:09
probably yeah it was pretty rough right and it was pretty like every day so I it's weird I had a weird uh temper I'm gonna it's gonna be a weird thing I was
00:37:21
the oldest of seven mhm and and I was weird weird smaller than my younger brothers so it was a weird thing where your brothers like hey so
00:37:33
and so down the block bothered me and I'm I'm like I gotta [ __ ] go protect oh Andre Tony and I'm [ __ ] smaller
00:37:42
than that so anyway one day a guy a guy really disrespected me really bad like mushed me at a party and like mush me and push like kind of like kick sand on
00:37:54
my face in front of girls and [ __ ] and I went home I put a brick in a book bag this is like a legendary story in my neigh Bad Boys yeah and I [ __ ] swung
00:38:09
that [ __ ] and smacked this guy in the face with this brick and then stomped him Joe pesy style wow now to the point
00:38:19
we thought he might die for like even like three days later every time a cop or whatever would come through the block
00:38:25
would be like we're literally talking about ways of getting me to down south like that would have helped huh long
00:38:32
story short from that day on as my shrink puts it to me you've been scared to be angry ever since so I so the guy you
00:38:44
saw was bending over backwards to be nice because I was so scared of my anle yeah
00:38:52
I see frightened of what you know my my shrink my good the good shrink I got you know like the top top guy there's good
00:39:04
ones and bad ones definitely there good ones and bad ones you know and he broke it down it's like we got to get you over
00:39:11
that incident right because you're a nice guy and this guy brought out something in you and you're so scared of that thing coming out of you again yeah
00:39:22
that you let the whole world walk all over your friends walk over you your family walks over you your your your female relationships like everybody just
00:39:33
[ __ ] you over because it's somewhere in there they know you there's a force F holding you back interesting so so I'm like the opposite of you in
00:39:46
the sense that in the last year now I can get angry right I'm not scared I'm not scared of letting people know how I feel about certain that my therapy was about that too though CU I was always
00:39:57
the nice guy holding stuff in and not really my aggression my competitiveness overrode the nice guy CU people ask me who meet me now well did you just allow
00:40:08
other cast members like oh no Lauren do their sketch that kind of thing there was a natural competition in me but in
00:40:14
my personal relationships I I hated confrontation because when confrontation happened at my house bodies flew my dad
00:40:22
was just really violent so I even all my siblings are like that we don't like confrontation too it wasn't violent per se but it was loud as [ __ ] yeah so but
00:40:34
those things stick with you just loud yeah it just sticks with you so now yeah I can kind of I I can tell you um hey I didn't like what you said to me or I
00:40:44
didn't like what you without losing my head without hitting anybody that's that's a home run for
