00:21:53

senses of humor jammed in a movie. It's

00:21:55

got to take some finessing to make it

00:21:56

work. It worked great. Uh

00:21:57

>> it was amazing. Remember your chapstick

00:21:59

moment? That was on the horse.

00:22:33

of my favorite things is

00:22:36

Do you have anything uh do you have

00:22:38

anything besides Mexican food

00:22:41

in the restaurant in Santa PO where the

00:22:44

[ __ ] we were?

00:22:46

>> Where were you? Where did you shoot it?

00:22:48

>> Um

00:22:49

>> Yeah.

00:22:57

>> Only you would know that, sweetie. my

wife Jamie Chase.

00:23:01

>> We're turning it into the interview with

00:23:02

her

00:23:03

>> because she's fun to we haven't had a

00:23:05

clear answer who can speak truth to

00:23:07

power about everything. I remember

00:23:09

Lauren saying I think it was John

00:23:11

Landis. He was like frustrated with the

00:23:13

cut

00:23:14

>> and he always refers to comedians as the

00:23:16

monkeys. It's great to shoot all the

00:23:17

towns people but you should really spend

00:23:19

some time on the monkeys and that was

00:23:22

you three. But that's he says that to

00:23:24

all of us.

00:23:24

>> Oh, we're the monkeys.

00:23:27

>> Here's something that Lauren said. said

00:23:28

monkeys.

00:23:29

>> Did Lauren ever say this to you, Chvy?

00:23:30

Because Lauren has a way of like taking

00:23:32

big issues and making them you about

00:23:34

funny people and there's funny people

00:23:36

and he he says there's only 900 of us on

00:23:39

the planet

00:23:40

>> and it was like a perfect I know it was

00:23:43

such a funny specific number that I kind

00:23:45

of went is figure did he figure it out?

00:23:48

that way?

00:24:37

You're the

Lauren, I I I needed to host it. I

00:25:56

hadn't been seen much. And uh you know,

00:25:59

I was getting closer to death.

00:26:01

>> Sure.

>> Are you alive?

00:26:04

>> Well, that's five together if you do.

00:26:32

>> We We should come together. That'll be

00:26:34

the next stick on the 50th. Chevy is a

00:26:37

first ballot hall of famer,

00:26:39

>> but I'm going to try to get

00:26:40

>> you start as your start with Dan Akroy.

00:26:43

>> It means on SNL you're just obviously

00:26:45

right in the Hall of Fame of SNL no

00:26:47

matter what.

00:26:48

>> What do you think in sports? Do you like

00:26:49

sports, Chevy?

00:26:50

>> Maybe Janie should pull up a chair and

00:27:00

just sort of

00:27:01

>> another way to put it.

00:27:02

>> You want to get Janie down here? If

00:27:04

you're creating a sketch team for for a

00:27:06

television show, I would start with you.

00:27:09

>> Yeah.

00:27:10

>> At Update and I would put Dan Akroyd in

00:27:12

there and Bill Murray and basically the

00:27:15

whole first cast.

00:27:16

>> Yeah. It's hard to

00:27:17

>> Well, he wasn't in the first Billy.

00:27:19

>> Billy came a little later

00:27:22

years.

00:27:22

>> I think he's from

00:27:23

>> He was in Chicago killing people.

00:27:25

>> Oh, he right. Billy cuz you're both 6'4.

00:27:28

Lauren, we'd like someone as tall as

Chvy. And then they brought in Bill.

00:27:32

You're both giants.

00:27:33

>> Yeah.

00:27:34

>> Now, Gilder Rner, she's just a magic

00:27:37

person on camera.

00:27:38

>> I know. Is she still around?

00:27:42

>> That's all right. It's okay.

00:27:43

>> Come on. It's pretty bad. It's pretty

00:27:45

bad.

00:27:46

>> No, I I love I've said things privately

00:27:49

that would make your

00:27:52

>> Apparently, I'm not being private.

00:27:54

>> Exactly.

00:27:54

>> This is going This is our first live

00:27:57

podcast. It's all over Europe and

00:27:59

everything's out there. No, anything can

00:28:01

be cut. So you can say anything.

00:28:02

>> Yeah. Who do Who are your favorite SNL

00:28:04

people? Do you over the years? I know

00:28:28

here.

00:28:28

>> Yes. an earlier house.

00:28:30

>> Mhm.

00:28:31

>> It was on the door and you know, you're

00:28:35

not supposed to really actually get into

00:28:37

the area because other people live here.

00:28:40

Anyway, um I open the door and there's

00:28:44

like eight journalists.

00:28:49

>> Jeffy, what do you think about John

00:28:50

dying? I mean,

00:28:52

>> no,

00:28:52

>> that's how you found out.

00:28:54

>> I said, great. No. Um I I it literally

00:28:59

just blew our minds to hear.

00:29:02

>> On the other hand, it wasn't that

00:29:03

surprising given his uh proclivities and

00:29:06

and may I say propensities and now

00:29:10

>> um

00:29:10

>> pigtail

00:29:11

>> and peculiar picadillos. I was trying to

00:29:15

think words.

00:29:16

>> Piccadillo.

00:29:16

>> Piccadillos.

00:29:17

>> Piccadillos.

00:29:18

>> Yes. Well, we're a family on Saturday

>> I'm I'm not that I was looking, but what

00:29:30

is your what is your what is your rank

00:29:33

on the alltime? Are you on the top five?

00:29:36

Like Rolling Stone did something. Did

00:29:38

you check your number? I think I was

00:29:39

nine.

00:29:40

>> I think I was 10.

00:29:41

>> 10 right behind me.

00:29:42

>> I think you [ __ ] way this little

00:29:44

>> Write that down.

00:29:46

>> Wait a minute. Was I Jamie? Do we

00:29:48

remember seeing this?

00:29:49

>> We don't read.

00:29:49

>> There were lots of polls. That was just

00:29:51

I remember Steve Martin saying they just

00:29:52

throw it up against the wall.

00:29:54

>> I think Yon Wy was two.

00:29:56

>> They also do polls with some people out

00:29:59

of order so people argue about it.

00:30:01

>> Okay.

00:30:02

>> That's what I found in my travels. Oh,

00:30:03

yeah. I got a question for Chedd.

00:30:05

>> Oh, you do this both of you, right?

00:30:07

>> We do.

00:30:07

>> I keep thinking I have hair.

00:30:10

>> You keep rubbing it.

00:30:12

>> Well,

00:30:12

>> wait a minute.

00:30:13

>> It's starting to come in. I dropped my

00:30:15

you.

00:30:18

>> No, this morning I was in the bathroom

00:30:20

doing this

00:30:22

>> and I'm showing Jamie this is what I do.

00:30:26

>> Just balance it. That's not a bad idea.

00:30:28

>> Once but

00:30:29

>> now you're moving.

00:30:30

>> Well, that's what Jerry Seinfeld said

00:30:32

said to Lauren. He goes I had hair when

00:30:34

I needed it like during the sitcom and

00:30:36

then he lost it all not lost it

00:30:38

basically at 50 but as soon when he was

00:30:40

on the sitcom I had it when he needed

00:30:41

it. when you were you had you had it

00:30:43

when you needed it.

00:30:44

>> I got it. I got it. But uh what's he

00:30:46

doing now? Cherry Santel

00:30:48

>> counting his money.

00:30:50

>> No,

00:30:52

he likes to do standup. He He's He

00:30:55

worked on a pop-tart bit for 5 years and

00:30:57

now he's making an animated. I'm not

00:30:59

kidding.

00:31:00

>> I I believe

00:31:01

>> he is the most scientific. Uh and uh if

00:31:04

he if you're around him and he hasn't

00:31:06

done his hour alone in a room with his

00:31:08

comedy notes, he starts getting anxious.

00:31:11

Really?

00:31:11

>> I've got to get to my notes.

00:31:12

>> I hope he's not listening.

00:31:14

>> It took him a while to crack this.

00:31:17

>> He's one of the best. He

00:31:18

>> cracked the code. I'm sure now he's one

00:31:20

of the best.

00:31:22

>> No, Jerry's one of the best. I saw him

00:31:24

two weeks ago. We were at the improv and

00:31:26

uh he came in did a set great wall to

00:31:28

wall. He goes, "I'm trying new stuff and

00:31:30

didn't seem new. It was so good." He's

00:31:32

he knows.

00:31:32

>> Yeah. Well said.

00:31:34

>> Yeah. Chvy, we can take Don't worry, my

00:31:36

parts will be cut out later.

00:31:37

>> Like Julian Lennon.

00:31:38

>> No, this is a compliment. You were on

00:31:39

the Tonight Show, huge star, and then

00:31:42

you were uh maybe you guest hosted.

00:31:44

Would you ever want to have been the

00:31:45

host of the Tonight Show after Johnny

00:31:47

left or No.

00:31:48

>> Oh, no.

00:31:49

>> Because they said that you were one of

00:31:50

their favorite.

00:31:51

>> No, I think people wrote that.

00:31:53

>> Mhm.

00:31:54

>> Um,

00:31:56

let me just think of who wrote it

00:31:57

>> and then people like me read it.

00:31:59

>> Truman Capot.

00:32:00

>> [ __ ] I can't remember.

00:32:01

>> It was Capot. It would,

00:32:03

>> oh, NBC executives referred to you as

00:32:05

the the first potential successor, but

00:32:08

it seems like you were doing so many

00:32:09

movies, you wouldn't want to do that.

00:32:10

Like, of course, but that was a huge

00:32:12

compliment to say you'd be the best to

00:32:15

take over,

00:32:16

>> I guess. So, who said it?

00:32:18

>> I'm just making [ __ ] up.

00:32:20

>> Thank you. Thank you very much. You are

00:32:22

correct.

00:32:23

>> Can you do Ed, too?

00:32:24

>> Uh, no.

00:32:26

>> No. Not really. Phil Hartman, R. Dan

00:32:29

Akroyd did the best. He did. He did a

00:32:31

good ad.

00:32:32

>> He did a great ad. And every time he

00:32:34

spoke, it was funny.

00:32:36

>> And Johnny just set him up, you know.

00:32:37

>> Oh god.

00:32:38

>> And because Johnny's references were not

00:32:40

very current. Reminds me of the old uh

00:32:43

pel cigarettes. Old reference lost on

00:32:46

younger.

00:32:46

>> Oh, pel.

00:32:48

>> Pel reminds me of the old pel

00:32:50

cigarettes.

00:32:52

>> Just make that up now.

00:32:53

>> Yeah.

00:32:54

>> Do you like him?

00:32:55

>> I like Dana. I like David.

00:32:57

>> I like you, Chvy,

00:32:58

>> more than I like David at this point.

00:33:00

We're trying to win you over, but we're

00:33:01

running out of time.

00:33:02

>> No, we've won. He's won me over. You

00:33:04

hosted the Academy Awards twice.

00:33:07

>> Yeah.

00:33:08

>> Lot of work or fun.

00:33:11

>> You all right?

00:33:12

00:33:35

00:33:36

that are right there [ __ ] right in

00:33:38

the and uh

00:33:40

>> for me I don't have to have that. I just

00:33:42

uh

00:33:43

>> I just have to be me as it were. I I

00:33:46

think the very first one I hosted

00:33:49

Jack Nicholson was in the front row.

00:33:51

>> Yeah. Yeah.

00:33:53

>> And first

00:33:54

What' you say

00:34:31

>> Love is that brilliant.

00:34:33

00:34:34

00:34:37

Well, that was first year famous sketch

00:34:39

00:34:45

>> very adult. Very

00:34:47

>> Yeah,

00:34:47

>> we all know the sketch. We don't have to

00:34:49

say anything else. Uh okay.

00:34:51

>> Thanks a lot, tick face. Well, I said it

00:34:53

00:34:56

capabilities at all times.

00:34:58

>> Ticks on his face.

00:34:59

>> Ticks on his

00:34:59

>> No, don't look at your watch, Chevy.

00:35:01

>> I thought he was coming down to see.

00:35:03

>> No, you have three and a half.

00:35:04

>> I can tell a Richard Prior story, but I

00:35:05

don't know if I want to take Chvy from

00:35:07

moving.

00:35:07

>> Do do I Okay, I'll say as fast as I can.

00:35:10

I was

00:35:10

>> I read from moving, by the way.

00:35:11

>> No, I Yeah, before that I was a waiter

00:35:14

at the Holiday Inn and I waited on

00:35:16

Richard Prior. Yeah.

00:35:17

>> Because he was playing this theater and

00:35:19

I brought him a Denver omelette and when

00:35:20

I took it away I was very nervous. He

00:35:22

looked at me and said, "Whoever made

00:35:24

that omelette can suck my dick." And I

00:35:28

never knew if that was a positive or a

00:35:30

negative. You know, it could have gone

00:35:32

either way. 10 years later, I'm in a

00:35:35

movie with Richard moving and I had to

00:35:37

know. So, at lunchtime, I'm sitting next

00:35:39

to Richard. I took a bite of a

00:35:40

cheeseburger and I said, "Whoever made

00:35:42

this cheeseburger can suck my dick." And

00:35:44

he goes, "You must like that

00:35:46

00:36:49

>> And was on um

00:36:50

>> Cool. Well, I'm just I'm channeling you

00:36:52

now. I never noticed.

00:36:54

>> Basically, the he was rather out of it

00:36:57

for a while. And

00:36:58

>> so he lost some some memories. They're

00:37:02

kind of coming back, but you know,

00:37:04

things like when you ask

00:37:06

>> Why don't you share this with them

00:37:07

>> in the in the radio world?

00:37:09

>> I It seems like your memory is pretty

00:37:11

pretty come back at this point to me.

00:37:13

Yeah. Oh, yeah. And better, but just so

00:37:16

you know,

00:37:16

>> I'm sorry about heart failure.

00:37:24

>> Well, you were.

00:37:25

>> Yeah.

>> see,

00:37:29

>> he he's trying to He's trying

00:37:31

>> He got us back on track. Look at that.

00:37:33

>> Yeah. He's trying to um uh compare white

00:37:38

people and black people, you know, like

00:37:39

his stand up. And he he says, "You know,

00:37:42

white people get all like that if they

00:37:45

see a snake. They get all frightened and

00:37:47

they jump away.

00:37:48

>> Black people just go snake."

00:37:53

>> It was great.

00:37:55

>> Well, it's just his timing.

00:37:56

>> Snake.

00:37:57

>> Yeah, he's the he's I love him.

00:37:59

>> He's the best standup.

00:38:00

>> Yeah,

00:38:01

>> I think his Long Beach special was just

00:38:03

phenomenal. Anyway,

00:38:06

>> um David, any favorite? Uh, you're

00:38:09

friends with Norm. You were friends with

00:38:10

Norm McDonald.

00:38:11

>> Yeah,

00:38:12

>> he's a good update guy. He was great,

00:38:14

right?

00:38:14

>> Oh, he's just great. Yeah.

00:38:16

>> Yeah, he does great.

00:38:17

>> I thought he did it. Yeah. I didn't

00:38:19

think anybody else did it very well, but

00:38:22

I thought he did brilliant.

00:38:24

>> Yeah, he pushed it pretty far.

00:38:25

>> He just went right for the dirt.

00:38:27

>> Yeah, he went for the jugular every

00:38:28

time, which

00:38:29

>> No, there weren't any. It's like I did

00:38:31

it because I was interested in politics.

00:38:34

I read the New York Times, you know. Not

00:38:36

him. He just he just goes and just

00:38:39

throws a like a dirty word in there or

00:38:41

something. It's

00:38:42

>> Oh, this is very

00:38:46

>> Yeah, he did a lot of that OJ stuff. You

00:38:48

have a classic Norm.

00:38:49

>> Oh,

00:38:50

>> it was always some turn by Norm, but he

00:38:53

probably was influenced by by you as far

00:38:55

as being

00:38:56

>> sure everybody

00:38:57

>> dangerous or being edgy or

00:38:59

>> I don't think so. I don't know. Well,

00:39:00

after you doing update, that's not the

00:39:03

one to beat, but it's like that's so

00:39:04

good. you go, how do I do it where I

00:39:07

don't look I don't look so pale in

00:39:09

comparison?

00:39:09

>> Well, it was the first one, so people do

00:39:12

compare that.

00:39:13

>> Yeah.

00:39:13

>> And Yeah, but you know, really

00:39:16

the best by far. Thank you.

00:39:18

>> Yeah.

00:39:20

>> Was that our best question?

00:39:21

>> I'll tell you I'll tell you the quick

00:39:23

joke I heard from Norm on

00:39:24

>> Norm is always fun with

00:39:25

>> this Norm joke where he goes, "My wife,

00:39:28

first of all, he's not married. My wife

00:39:30

uh was in a coma and I I'm waiting in

00:39:32

the waiting room. The doctor's in a

00:39:33

coma. This is Norm's fake wife. Yeah. He

00:39:36

goes, "I like your good audience in a

00:39:37

coma."

00:39:37

>> You did say coma, didn't you?

00:39:38

>> Yeah. So, the wife's in a coma. The

00:39:40

doctor says, Norm goes, "Anything I can

00:39:43

do?" And he goes, "Well, we found an

00:39:46

unorthodox way, some way to get her

00:39:48

awake. Uh, uh, oral sex might help." And

00:39:52

he goes, "Oh, yeah." And he goes, "Well,

00:39:54

if you want to." And he goes, "Yeah,

00:39:55

I'll do it." So, he goes in there and he

00:39:57

comes out. He goes, "Doc, it's been 5

00:39:59

minutes and she's choking."

00:40:06

That's norm.

00:40:08

Yeah. I think he told that like Conan.

00:40:10

Everyone's like, "Oh jeez, you know,

00:40:11

that guy

00:40:12

>> Conan just uh

00:40:14

>> Okay, nextan.

00:40:16

>> Is that the redheaded guy?"

00:40:17

>> Yes.

00:40:17

>> He's very He's very ginger and he's very

00:40:20

tall.

00:40:20

>> You he Yeah, he is tall. You're right.

00:40:23

>> Hi, Conan. How are you?

00:40:25

>> Oh, he's shorter than you. No,

00:40:27

>> I have no say.

00:40:28

>> I have no idea.

00:40:29

>> Look at Dana and I are fighting it out

00:40:31

down here at 5.

00:40:32

>> Sorry, my wife.

00:40:35

>> Divorce me.

00:40:38

>> She's like, I did. You forgot.

00:40:40

>> Flying the wall is taking a taken a turn

00:40:43

for this is very interesting.

00:40:45

>> She's taking a turn.

00:40:47

>> Janie, his wife, and now he are engaging

00:40:50

in friendly romantic banter.

00:40:58

I got a real question. Did you ever

00:40:59

write a script? You're a very funny guy.

00:41:00

Did you ever just write a whole one?

00:41:02

>> No.

00:41:03

>> Okay. Dad,

00:41:04

>> I wrote many um beginnings and stuff,

00:41:08

you know,

00:41:09

>> and thoughts. Lots of I got a lot. I

00:41:11

wrote every day, but I just couldn't

00:41:14

bring myself to writing a whole script.

00:41:16

>> You probably punch up a lot on the set,

00:41:17

though, or add jokes. That's probably

00:41:20

>> What did you say? I said you probably

00:41:21

punch up when you're on a

00:41:23

>> when you're filming on Ask him if he

00:41:25

punches up.

00:41:26

>> You probably improvise a lot, punch up

00:41:28

stuff a lot. They probably give you the

00:41:29

script ahead of time like Fletch and you

00:41:31

go, "Not that. I'll do this." That's

00:41:33

what I'm assuming.

00:41:34

>> Okay, good. Good assumption.

00:41:36

>> You might be a genius. I'm not the

00:41:38

>> I don't think so.

00:41:40

>> It's possible though. I know.

00:41:42

>> Yeah.

00:41:42

>> How long of a shoot was uh how long was

00:41:45

Catty Shack? Everyone's favorite movie

00:41:47

from growing up.

00:41:47

>> How long was it?

00:41:48

>> How long take you guys? Just was it a

00:41:50

short three or four weeks?

00:41:52

>> What the How long you shot when you shot

00:41:54

it? Yeah, when you shot it.

00:41:54

>> Oh. Oh,

00:41:55

>> cuz I was going to say about an hour and

00:41:57

a half.

00:41:57

>> Yeah.

00:42:00

>> You know what's funny?

00:42:01

>> How long was Katty Shack? Thank you,

00:42:03

Dave.

00:42:03

>> No. What is the running time of Fletch?

00:42:06

These are my questions.

00:42:06

>> Um, he's a he was a chess champion. He's

00:42:09

into numbers.

00:42:11

>> This guy was he was an actual state

00:42:12

chess champion.

00:42:13

>> Is that true?

00:42:14

>> I was, but the smartness has gone away.

00:42:17

Uh, king to pawns, knight four, whatever

00:42:19

it is.

00:42:20

>> What do the pawns do?

00:42:22

>> Uh, the pawn. That's a great question.

00:42:24

>> That's like David and I here right now.

00:42:26

Um,

00:42:26

>> okay. Excellent.

00:42:28

>> Can I give you a compliment or or a as a

00:42:31

question?

00:42:31

>> Are you kidding? I can't wait. Cannot

00:42:34

wait.

00:42:34

>> I always tell people about because I was

00:42:37

I was watching K Cadishak

00:42:40

>> and so you and Billy Murray are doing a

00:42:42

thing where you're golfing I think going

00:42:44

through the thing. Bill Murray is in his

00:42:46

gopher guy. He's got the funny mouth.

00:42:48

He's got the overtly

00:42:49

>> You have a fool, don't you?

00:42:50

>> Funny character, right?

00:42:52

>> You play it so Buster Keat, your face is

00:42:55

so straight that you more than hold your

00:42:58

own in that scene. And I always go cuz

00:43:01

I'm always out there dancing and mugging

00:43:02

and pushing. You just went nothing and

00:43:05

created this incredible comedic dance

00:43:08

with Bill Murray. Now you talk.

00:43:09

>> Go.

00:43:11

>> Go. Chvy is wiping a tear.

00:43:16

No, but did people mention that scene in

00:43:18

your style of silent film comedy when

00:43:21

you want to do it?

00:43:22

>> Well, we did wing the We did wing it, by

00:43:24

the way. It It was in Bill's caddy

00:43:27

shack.

00:43:28

>> Yeah. Oh, that one. Yeah. When we first

00:43:30

shot uh first shot it when we were ready

00:43:34

to go, Bill had put on the wall there

00:43:38

like eight pictures of naked women like

00:43:42

with their legs spread, you know, from

00:43:44

Hustler or something. And you know,

00:43:47

Lander said, "I don't no, I don't think

00:43:49

so." And so Bill just collected them

00:43:52

all, just one underneath, you know, one

00:43:56

of, I don't know, a girl like this or

00:43:58

something, maybe like this. Anyway, um

00:44:02

so uh

00:44:05

we start going and we and he's just

00:44:08

trying to get me the whole time to crack

00:44:10

me up and he goes,

00:44:14

>> "You have a pool, don't you?"

00:44:17

You know,

00:44:18

>> you know,

00:44:19

>> um we have a pool and a pond. Pond would

00:44:22

be good for you.

00:44:23

>> Yeah.

00:44:24

>> And if you look at this film, he never

00:44:27

cracks, right? In that one, he went

00:44:30

>> just a little bit.

00:44:31

>> Just a teeny bit. I'm going to look at

00:44:32

that. It's a beauty. I love it.

00:44:34

>> You'll see it.

00:44:34

>> Were they were Were were that like kind

00:44:36

of a a tracking shot? How how long would

00:44:39

they let you guys go before they'd yell

00:44:41

cut? Did they just follow you?

00:44:43

>> I don't know.

00:44:44

>> It seemed very spontaneous. Uh, I think

00:44:47

the uh it couldn't have been just one

00:44:50

shot. They had to cover each other. So

00:44:52

>> I It was cut. I don't

00:44:53

>> But they're smart to keep that because

00:44:55

that's probably maybe on a wide shot or

00:44:57

maybe your side and then they just go

00:44:58

that we got to keep that one in there.

00:44:59

Yeah.

00:45:00

>> Yeah. That's great.

00:45:01

>> Wow.

00:45:01

>> Cuz what's your name again?

00:45:03

00:45:16

00:45:19
