00:00:05
welcome to an episode. Thank you. Thanks. I'm happy to be your guest.
00:00:10
Oh, I got a great story for you right off the bat. But first, let's just say
00:00:16
there's a lot of stuff going on at our our alma m
00:00:21
[Music] a lot of stuff. A lot of cash changes going, some personal things out there,
00:00:27
people we know what's going on. So, we're going to go over that comprehensively, piece by piece,
00:00:34
piece by piece, and it's going to be a a barn burner. But first, we're going to
00:00:39
do a little catch up because I haven't I haven't seen him in um eight hours.
00:00:44
We had First of all, the SNL stuff. Lots of rumor, lots of innuendo, intrigue, palace intrigue. Who comes?
00:00:52
Who goes? Why? Why? Who? What? Where? When? What do we do when the world ash? Why?
00:00:58
Exactly. You know that was uh JFK during the Cuban missile crisis. Yeah.
00:01:05
Could have been Bobby Kennedy senior during the Cuban missile crisis. But I Was it Bobby Kennedy
00:01:10
that said that I believe I believe what do we do when the world asked why? But
00:01:16
it could have been Jack. Anyway, back to your weekend. You'll you'll never guess who killed
00:01:23
Bobby Kennedy in the kitchen at the Roosevelt. Uh, no. I will never guess.
00:01:30
Sir Han, Sir Han, isn't it? You're kidding. You're kidding. Is that his name? Yeah.
00:01:36
Yeah. I wasn't even doing that as a joke. I was saying he was a bus boy there and then I was going to promote bus boys.
00:01:41
Oh, well, that's that's a stretch. I know. I was really trying to link it together. God, my hair's getting long,
00:01:47
dude. I know. I don't know what's going on. What have happened sidewalls? You got kind of a You're turning into me. It's
00:01:53
kind of fluffy. I'll start this with this. This is a hat from my gig I just did.
00:01:59
Okay. It's black though. And it's black. What does it say on it? I can't. It says Alaska.
00:02:06
H. Do you know where? What do you What Nebraska is a corn husker? What's in Alaska?
00:02:13
Alaska. Are the Blubers? The Blubers? That sounds That's their NFL team.
00:02:19
I bought it. Hook, line, and the Blubers. the it's
00:02:24
I had a gig up there. It's the Keystone State or something to do with mining. Is it Heather? See if Alaska is the
00:02:30
Keystone State. I don't know if it's that, but it's something to do with
00:02:36
Heather jumps off Tik Tok quickly. Tik Tok is rocking. Okay,
00:02:42
listen. So, Dana, I have a gig up. Pennsylvania. Oh, Pennsylvania is the
00:02:47
I was close. What's Alaska though? No, another place. Alaska. Alaska is just the, you know,
00:02:55
the grizzly or something or something to do with the Yeah, I could get on the tip of my brain.
00:03:00
I think it's called the bring a coat state. Is it really that cold? So why I mean,
00:03:06
while she works on this, why would anybody go to the trouble to play Alaska? Like
00:03:12
if I could beam to Alaska, I'd play it there tonight, right? It's called fan interaction,
00:03:18
and the people matter to me. Are you are you I'm just gonna say this because you
00:03:23
can't say it. Are you Yeah. gigantic in Alaska? I mean, is that your I will say,
00:03:29
are you Shane Gillis in Alaska? Yeah. They're appreciative when you come up there because listen, the gig I did
00:03:36
was a state fair. These are things as a comedian, you know, that watch for these early warning signs. State fair equates
00:03:45
to I've done them. kids. One problem with state fairs, Alaska is
00:03:51
the last frontier. Mhm. Okay, that makes sense. And it it's true.
00:03:57
So, state fairs, I did one with Gary Shanling, open form, RIP, the one of the greats. Uh, we did
00:04:04
it in Arizona where I'm from and it was one of those things where it was one of the events. So, it was come
00:04:10
one, come all. Everyone could trickle from the corn dog hut into there from Indian fry bread from the tilt world.
00:04:17
They all go in and so it was kids all ages and I was like but it was probably
00:04:22
3,000 people. I proceeded to bomb unsurprisingly but Gary did pretty well
00:04:29
but he's he's pretty clean I think. Remember but you got to clean it up a bit. Inuendo but but clean.
00:04:37
Yeah. So this is you would have killed um Yes. And
00:04:43
but state fair I thought special it was intriguing because it's a state fair but then they
00:04:51
said it's 3:00 in the afternoon I go on now it stays light till about midnight so and I didn't know it was outdoors I
00:04:57
didn't really think of that part so it's very challenging I kind of liked the challenge of this is a lot so when I get
00:05:04
there about a week ahead I put it on my weather on my apps and it says where I'm
00:05:10
performing is 70% chance of rain. I was like, "Oh, I forgot about rain."
00:05:16
Uh, so anyway, long story longer, I go, you have to go through Seattle, lay
00:05:23
over, not direct, huh? And you know what I hate to say? An
00:05:28
unnamed This happens to all airline. I just want a TV to veg out, just kill
00:05:34
time, right? Mhm. They say, "Oh, this this flight has TVs." I said, "Thank God." I get there,
00:05:41
it hits me, there's no TVs. And I go, "Where's the TV?" And they go, "It's on your phone, silly."
00:05:48
Uhuh. So, they announced that they had TVs, but they meant it was because you were
00:05:53
carrying a portable TV, i.e. your phone. I think that's false advertising. I'm going to call [ __ ] on that. What's
00:05:59
the name of the airline? Let's get sued or sued. It's also called being rat [ __ ] So,
00:06:05
was it I don't want to I don't want to look and download 18 apps and then get on W. It's
00:06:10
just too much. So, it's like taking a date and you go to a drive-in theater
00:06:15
and she goes, "Where's the screen?" I go, "It's on your phone, [ __ ] You thought it Why would you think it's
00:06:21
there at the drive-in on the screen? That's drive-in theater with a big screen. What era did you come from? When were you
00:06:28
poor?" Go if you want to hold it out like this. We go to a field and we look at our folks. We hold them out.
00:06:33
We cuddle up and watch Tik Toks. Cuddle up there. Some marshmallows may be a thing. And you go home.
00:06:40
All right. Hat's coming off cuz people got to see the scary hair. So that happened anyway. Question for you.
00:06:46
Also, they have Go ahead. Ambient sound. So when you're on there outdoor there's a thunderstorm
00:06:53
because when I did one for a second I heard a country western band kick in to
00:06:58
the point where the whole amphitheater I was in outdoors could hear them playing. Yeah.
00:07:04
So I'm doing my act and then the rodeo across the way it was
00:07:10
huge and Billy knock now is on this thousandb bolt. So all this ambient
00:07:16
noise and I'm going isn't that special? Ah, you're trying to be louder.
00:07:22
Well, I just I just broke down the show and go started singing with the band or pretending. But did you have ambient
00:07:27
sound? Was sound. Okay. Well, I had Bobby and Dan Levy with me and we uh God, you're like a That's incredible. We
00:07:34
have two openers. Well, because and I have to do an hour, but they when I before I left, I said,
00:07:39
"Hey, Alex, uh, manager, this feels like a clean show, right? That's a little
00:07:45
harder. So I got to go through everything and really he said no. They said no restrictions. I go Are you sure? Cuz kids are at the So
00:07:53
anyway, we go there. I go over to the petting zoo. They have a little petting farm. Pet the goats and
00:07:59
uh baby snow cone. Now I got a reindeer dog. And it started to back up on me about two hours later.
00:08:07
I go, I think Christmas came early. A corn dog is called a rain dog. Is that it from Is
00:08:13
reindeer dog? Oh, cuz by the way up there they're like you should have a bison burger, the reindeer skewers. I'm
00:08:20
like I don't know. I'm not here to experiment. I think you go on a you know kind of a
00:08:25
state fair tour cuz obviously you took to it and you crushed
00:08:31
you know what I wound up when Bobby went on it was so sunny we weren't worried about the rain. He had to wear
00:08:37
sunglasses because the sun was setting and Jim Gaffigan had did this gig and he said he had to wear sunglasses and so I
00:08:44
guess they understand it. And then when Dan went on it was getting cloudy so he was okay. When I went on the first thing
00:08:52
I said I went up and then someone put on their poncho and I go look at this guy
00:08:57
put on their poncho. It's not even raining. And they all go it is raining. I was like oh it started raining. Joke one. So the
00:09:04
audience is getting wet, but you have a thing on top here like a pavilion and they're all getting it's getting into one of the worst. I
00:09:10
did Laughlin, Nevada at same thing with the raking light with like 40 people in
00:09:16
a 2,000 seat amphitheater with Chris Katan and Tim Meadows. What's a raking light mean?
00:09:22
Raking like right in your eyes like the sun was trying to go down. It was like just blinding. So
00:09:28
yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Well, I said and and it was raining on him. So I
00:09:35
said, 'The guy backstage who runs it told me, uh, it might rain. I said, 'Well, if it rains, they're going to
00:09:42
start to leave. And he said, no, in Alaska, we're not a bunch of [ __ ]
00:09:47
And I said that, and the crowd went, they loved it. They loved it. Were they?
00:09:52
By the way, not one person left. They got rained on. They didn't It's Alaska. That's what they they're Alaska tough.
00:09:58
They're tough. I like those people. So, I had a good time. The only last thing I'll tell you, and then I'll tell you 20 more things, was uh when I was
00:10:06
sitting at breakfast waiting for those guys, I'm on like a bench seat along the
00:10:12
wall. The uh hotel's packed with the [ __ ] gills for some reason. And then
00:10:17
this woman next to me, she goes, she's staring at me. Oh. And I just keep like
00:10:24
uh reading the menu and she goes I hear making noise and she goes, "Dana
00:10:31
Carvey." Oh wow. Classic. I go, "Uh, close." Then I keep reading.
00:10:39
She goes, "You're a Dana Carvey." I go, "I'm not, but yes, I I know Dane. I know
00:10:45
I know what you're saying. And uh it's we used to work with together. We used to have the same job." Then she goes,
00:10:51
"But you're that guy." And I go and then she goes, "I don't have my
00:10:57
phone cuz I left it in Vancouver." I go, "What the cool, dude? If I left it in my room, I'd be
00:11:03
[ __ ] flipping out. Uh 3 minutes ago, I'd be like click glitch glitch."
00:11:12
So she finally goes, "I could tell by your voice you're Dana Garvey." She kept
00:11:18
hammering. Everyone now in the restaurant is like, "It's not him." But anyway, I finally have to say, "No, no,
00:11:24
I'm a different guy." And then, uh, "Well, will you sign it? Sign me something cuz I don't have my phone."
00:11:31
So, I sign it, David, but I put not Dana Garvey.
00:11:38
I had an interesting experience. We went to Hurt Hertz Castle again. We were gone a couple weeks ago.
00:11:45
Whoa. And they have this thing with these giant buses, big heavy eight tire
00:11:50
buses, and they go up the 1600 feet incline around hairpin turns up to the
00:11:55
castle. Then you see the the event and then you're coming back down. So we sat in the very front and I'm watching the
00:12:02
guy downshifting. It looks like you're going 30, 40 miles an hour right at a hairpin turn. There's no guard rails
00:12:10
and he's kind of like straining to turn. If one tire gets out, we're trundling
00:12:15
down. Trundling. And right before we got in the thing, the guide, we had been guided the whole
00:12:20
way through. Very nice woman. She goes, "Hey, well, isn't that special?"
00:12:26
I gave her a hug. And then going down, I was really nervous. My palms were sweating. I was watching the driver. He
00:12:32
had a cloth and he was wiping off the sweat and just So then I came up with this idea. Just hit us like a ton of
00:12:38
bricks. I don't think it'll be funny on the podcast, but I just did a news report. Ladies and gentlemen, at this
00:12:43
hour, the church lady is no more. As if I trundled off the thing, but the church
00:12:49
lady went to heaven. The church lady is no more. I don't know where that phrase comes from, but And
00:12:56
the church lady is no more. But anyway, it was a fun trip, but you should go up there.
00:13:01
Where is that? I um central California, you know, it's near south of Monteray, north of
00:13:08
Papadaba, near Pasa Robos. It's about a guy with a billion trillion dollars who
00:13:13
just kept building and building this giant thing. Charlie Chaplan was there. Winston Churchill, you know,
00:13:19
they were there this weekend. Yeah. Carrie Grant came by.
00:13:25
Did you I told you that the other day that I use uh oldtimey movie star voices when I'm calling Comcast.
00:13:31
Yeah, I like this. And they're like, "Uh, so have you tried turning on off your machine?" And they don't know who Carrie Grant is. So the
00:13:38
whole time I'm just going, "Yes, I did. I try I turned it on and off, but nothing happened. And I'll turn it on
00:13:44
and off again, but nothing's happening. Well, they go, "Well, I don't know. Um, let's see. Maybe do you want someone to
00:13:49
come out?" Well, that'd be very nice if you could have someone come out and take care of my gum cast.
00:13:56
I used to have to have Spectra vision and they don't say, "Who is this? Are
00:14:02
you making a fun?" This is the way you talk. They just accept Carrie Grant completely. We should bring back that talk again
00:14:07
because it sounds cool. Actually, it is kind of a very strange accent. And sometimes I I kind of do Henry Fonda.
00:14:15
I'm trying to watch the game. I'm not getting any kind of reception here. And
00:14:20
they don't say, "Hey, are you Henry Fonda?" They just work with you. Yeah. So, anyway, that's a little fun
00:14:27
little side note. No, that's that's it. Other than that, I
00:14:32
would not go to that place. It's not far enough for me. I like to go super effing far. I got confirmation because I said
00:14:41
to our mutual manager, Mark Slurvitz, book me where David went and I am going
00:14:46
to play it in the dead of winter. They would love you. February 1st, it's called the Ice Bowl that day.
00:14:53
Actually, Alaska was really fun and it's fun to see a place that you never ever go and it was a good reason to go. And
00:15:00
then we drove around and we ate and everyone kept pushing the salmon on us. Have you tried the salmon?
00:15:05
The funniest part was everyone everyone they all have like a Canadian accent kind of kind of I'm sort of cheating it but
00:15:14
everyone has either New Balance or Rokus or snow boots or just boots. It's all
00:15:20
boots. And then we leave the hotel. We see the guy in an empty room, the shoe shine guy. And I'm like who's who's got
00:15:27
who? Not one person had hard shoes in that hotel. And he he's just a broke shoe shine guy from another era.
00:15:34
Yeah, I want to go there. Honestly, I would love to go to Alaska because I'm from
00:15:40
Montana, which has a lot of that, but Alaska is like 2.0 as far as
00:15:45
underdeveloped grizzly bears everywhere. You saw the grizzly man guy. It was It
00:15:51
was in Alaska. The guy who just got killed by the grizzly bears because he loved them too much. I've decided I could maybe beat a bear
00:15:59
in a fight if they were declawed. Then to make it even, couldn't they just go like that and
00:16:05
you'd be dead? I don't I don't think they need the claw. No, because we we would grapple a little
00:16:11
bit, right? And then it would be fair. And then also they'd have to be roughly in my weight class. So
00:16:17
you you would they would know they were in a fight, a grizzly bear versus you declawed. They they would know they're
00:16:23
they're getting something. You would you would make your presence known as a physical being.
00:16:29
They would try to make themselves bigger. I go, "Oh, to scare me." It doesn't work with me. It works the other
00:16:34
way around. It doesn't work with me because I hit a fly in the shower. I shouldn't even tell you this. I was
00:16:39
getting in the shower. Where are we? Okay, I'll tell I'll I'll save this for next episode. It's too good.
00:16:45
Okay, we have we have pressing news. Yeah, we have We have pressing news
00:16:50
about SNLep. We're the last people to report on this
00:16:56
and we're the SNL. We were just there. No, it's it's happening live in real time. So, basically, well, we can do these in
00:17:03
different chunks. There was two big things that caught my attention. Well, three big things. One is the people they
00:17:10
that they let go that are not coming back. Two is the people that they hired.
00:17:16
And then the fact that please don't destroy. Mhm. Please don't destroy. Please don't
00:17:23
destroy. So, that that was disbanded in a very destroyed. Please don't destroy.
00:17:28
Please don't destroy. And they asked nicely. Um, the exit people, Heidi Gardner,
00:17:35
Devin Walker, Emil Michael Longfellow. Yeah.
00:17:40
Yeah. Yeah. Heidi Rosebud. Rosebud Baker as a writer
00:17:46
who we had on the pod right before that. And she did feel a bit waffly,
00:17:53
right? Yeah. a little bit. You know, I I just say there's two lanes. There's one lane
00:17:59
where you're a little iffy. Is this the right thing for what I should be doing with my resources, my personal talent?
00:18:05
Am I getting paid enough to make it worth my while? If you're if you're the tip of the spear, if you're on the show
00:18:11
all the time and you're really killing it, then you don't you you want to stay, you know?
00:18:18
So, and also like Rose, but there's also not just her, but there's a mental aspect of
00:18:25
like, can I take it another year? I mean, you know, like that sinking feeling. You
00:18:31
don't know it. I know the sinking feeling when I had a weird time when you're not in re when you don't get
00:18:36
anything past read through and that is the longest week cuz you get out at Wednesday and you're like just staring and and you're just invisible
00:18:43
because everyone's like, "All right, I got to direct my sketch. I got to meet with Keith. I got to put this uh set
00:18:48
dressing together. I want to go to wigs, figure that out, hair and makeup and talk to the cast and everything's
00:18:53
happening around you. Now, you got to start on Wednesday night thinking about the next host going, "What can I write
00:18:59
for next week?" Cuz I didn't get anything on as a writer or a performer. And I think some of these guys had that
00:19:05
problem that if you're a cast member and it's just like such a mind effort to sit there and wait
00:19:12
and wait and watch everyone and be happy for and cheerlead because you want to be a part of it and then you just go [ __ ]
00:19:17
I'm not really part of it this week and then all Saturday and watching things kill and that's tough.
00:19:23
Well the first time that when I went on years ago there was just three main uh
00:19:30
male cast members. Um it was me and Phil and John Love it left over from 85
00:19:36
right and so and then we had Kevin Nean and feature a Whitney Brown and so forth and they became maybe but it was um it's
00:19:44
very interesting how for a long time it's 17 18 19 20 people and so there's
00:19:50
some people if you don't get on the show Devin Walker had told me this because I was just out there you were out there Hunter Biden
00:19:57
you became Hunter you became Hunter Biden there was no more Dave Spade actually was a great look. Um, and you
00:20:04
were great. But, um, Devon had told me, um, that when you don't get on the show
00:20:10
a lot, to your point, then when you get out there and you have a moment, you're not just sort of relaxed because it's
00:20:16
like if you don't score here, you go back in line. So, it's it can be emotionally violent depending where you
00:20:23
are in the show or it could be a magic ride. Nothing likes killing on live television. Um, we can bounce bounce
00:20:31
around again, but the one that got my attention the most was the Please Don't Destroy.
00:20:36
Uh, because it seemed to me they were really popular. They were an which is the group of three
00:20:42
the sorry the group of three guys Ben Marshall, John Higgins, and Martin Hurley.
00:20:48
Yeah. Um and they do these short films kind of esoteric ones they you know was
00:20:54
you know Timothy Shalamé or whoever they're in and Taylor Swift has been in them like they get big stars in them. Yeah.
00:21:00
So that really surprised me and on a human level I was surprised that they
00:21:06
kept some of them. So John Higgins is not going to be part of SNL
00:21:12
and he's not Yeah. Steve Higgins son is he's not at all. Not at all.
00:21:19
Ben Marshall, the taller guy with a fair hair, he's gonna be a feature player. And then
00:21:25
Martin Hurley, Tim Hurley's son. Be in fairness. He is going to be a writer.
00:21:31
But John Higgins dad is Steve Higgins, who does is the sidekick to Jimmy
00:21:37
Fallon, the announcer, and also writer, producer, been on the show in and around.
00:21:43
I don't think so. but he's just been a producer writer there for like 20 years or more. I don't know.
00:21:49
Yeah. And um that's his son and I don't know all the decisions are made but that's
00:21:54
just on a human level. It's sort of like you know um it's don't don't know. I mean um
00:22:02
you know that didn't hit me that if they pick up one as a cast member it immediately breaks them up and now
00:22:08
they're not on the show cuz they were only really in those things. And they
00:22:14
also wrote they were they were writing sketches. Oh, okay. Writing. They were writers and then that was the
00:22:20
thing they did. It wasn't on every week. Please don't destroy me short film, but it was on consistently. It seemed me,
00:22:26
you seem to me 8 to 10 episodes a year. Sure. Um, so you know, as far as you know, Martin
00:22:33
Hurley, he his dad's a great writer. Tim Hurley, he wrote a is writing stuff with Sandler all the time and and did write a
00:22:40
lot of classic movies. So, but these are they would call them nepo people, but
00:22:45
they're really talented. Um, all three of them work together. I never saw that
00:22:51
one was above the other. I thought it was very they had a lot of chemistry and um so that was kind of surprising
00:22:58
how mentally tough that's a that really is drama. I mean, my gosh. Yeah,
00:23:04
because it's so tough there anyway. And they were making some headway and I think they did a please don't destroy
00:23:10
movie. They did. And I do think I'm not sure, but I think they do own Please
00:23:16
Don't Destroy. And I think they're currently doing some dates.
00:23:21
So, we'll say they probably have deals, but I don't know. Oh my god. So, the one guy has to say,
00:23:27
"I'm going to take this. I'm going to be a cast member." How? It's [ __ ]
00:23:32
awkward for sure, right? It's just weird. Yeah. It's like the three and they they take Mo Howard but
00:23:39
then you know Shem doesn't get anything right. It's not literally like I'm trying to think of a trio. The Marx
00:23:45
brothers were taking Groucho but not Harpo. I'm not saying it's that but it is different.
00:23:51
They have a fan base. I mean they definitely sometimes they would wait a week for a host or something like
00:23:57
they would write something and go oh when John Ham comes he'll do this you know and and then to write for the show
00:24:03
but it so one is going to be a performer probably still a writer one is going to
00:24:08
be a writer writer Martin Hurley yeah and Higgins
00:24:14
John Higgins son who's very good very funny um is just not with the show
00:24:20
anymore you you know, so it must be just awkward for his dad and everything, you
00:24:27
know. So, I mean, he's very talented and they're all talented and, you know,
00:24:33
everyone at one point is an ex SNL cast member or or writer. You you're always
00:24:40
going to be post SNL way longer than you're on SNL. So, it does happen eventually. and he's
00:24:46
got a good foothold as far as being seen as a great writer, great performer along with his two friends, you know,
00:24:53
right? He could be thrown in movies. I mean, any of them. I think some some one of them was in Happy Gilmore, too, I think.
00:24:59
Probably. Uh but I don't know if that has any bearing on who stays, who goes.
00:25:04
Yeah. So, that's just a a one on top of everything else, on top of just that,
00:25:12
you know, it's already a full cast. And Heidi, do we know did she leave or was
00:25:17
she From what I know as of this recording that it was not her idea to leave? Now,
00:25:24
I I I could be wrong about that, but that's that's what I That would be a little shocking because
00:25:30
she's really one of the core ones, you
00:25:35
know, from that show, and she always does a great job. You never know and it is a hard thing but I was really really
00:25:42
surprised. I think she's got a a likability of she can play real straight newswoman
00:25:51
serious. She can play big broad funny physical. So I was uh surprised by that she has
00:25:58
finished a full eight seasons which is which is right up there you
00:26:03
know. Uh eight is a lot. Eight's a lot. It's it's eight is enough was a show.
00:26:10
Eight is enough. Who got their name? Eight is enough based on what you just said. It knew that eight is alive.
00:26:15
Based on the uh there wasn't even SNL then, but that's a whole another story.
00:26:20
I mean, when you look back, Dana, as you were brushing against earlier when you were talking, the first cast was maybe
00:26:28
eight total. Maybe seven or eight. And that's why they were
00:26:34
all stars. They're all in everything. And you're like, you kind of look like this person. You do it.
00:26:39
As we said, Dan Akroyd, mustache, play Nixon, don't wear a wig, nothing. You're
00:26:44
just Nixon. And it all worked. When it was up to us, when we were there, it was really fat. And uh I think
00:26:51
it stayed pretty porky because right now porky once you guys were added and a lot
00:26:57
of us were different words. It's chunky right now. It's Yeah, it
00:27:02
used to be some blubber, lean and mean, and now it's chunky and flubby. You need a little [ __ ] Evo Empic over
00:27:10
there. We got to kind of It's a sinker swim. It's a hedge your bet. You You go or you don't go. It's
00:27:17
like It reminds me of Hunger Games. You're stick looking out the window. Send in this, you know, like in Hunger Games
00:27:23
just to cause trouble, right? Or Gladiator. Bring in Brutus and see if he can stab anybody. If not,
00:27:31
I like when walking stabs him and goes, "Hey, good luck out there." And he's like,
00:27:36
"I'd love to get stabbed in the movie just so I could do that moment of like
00:27:42
and then you go, I know it hurts and it hit an artery, but I'm still going to be out there."
00:27:47
You pull it out 40 minutes. My character would pull it out and then like
00:27:53
slow motion. All right. So, let's just give our props
00:27:58
to Michael Longfellow, a really cool interest.
00:28:04
All these people uh Emil was an adorable person and funny
00:28:11
out there, you know. So, it's it's just they can't have a 100 cast members. I don't know how these people feel, but I
00:28:17
give them my props for uh being I was there with all of them. Yeah. Super likable. I was there for 10
00:28:23
freaking weeks. Yeah, you moved there and deserted me. But um Lauren and I talked a lot. Next year,
00:28:29
Dana, what do you think? Where do you Where do you want to go? And um I said a lot of things
00:28:36
Dana. Oh, also I'll say on the new cast, there's only two I know briefly.
00:28:41
Okay. Uh Veronica, I'm going to screw this up.
00:28:46
Sure. Okay. Who are we looking? Which one's this? Oh,
00:28:52
here she is. Here's for a new cast member. I'm done.
00:28:58
Done. She does these goofy videos all the time. I'm done being the beauty standard. I'm
00:29:04
done being Mrs. Beautiful online. I'm sick of it. Okay. I'm sick of this making the money. I'm sick of this
00:29:11
making the money. I'm sick of it all. Okay. I'm done. I want you to know me for my mind. If you crack the skull open
00:29:18
and would be able to read it like a scroll, you would find some [ __ ] up [ __ ] I'm not kidding. Okay. Well, then what is like
00:29:26
So why why are you posing like that then if you don't want to be stop Kyle sexualizing me? It's [ __ ]
00:29:32
disgusting. That's all she does. Serious. Okay, then stop doing that and say like Cheerio Terry vibes.
00:29:40
She is [ __ ] full bananas, but she does these on Instagram and she's funny.
00:29:46
So she will be play she has character she also is in tires with Shane and uh
00:29:52
she was on there this season. So listen she's good high qual she'll be good uh
00:29:57
there's brilliant people that sings softspoken are on their back and have a
00:30:03
dry kind of quirky way about them when you see her she's on her front foot. She's like she's got a neurotic or
00:30:11
she's portraying a neurotic energy with a lot of pop to it. So I can see that
00:30:20
Kate McIny vibes. You don't want to put any You don't I can see some Sherot in
00:30:25
there. So yeah, sure. It's a little It's a little nuts and I and I and she sings which also helps
00:30:31
because if you can sing on that show, you're in X more sketches, you know. Oh, she sings too. Okay. Well, u let's
00:30:37
officially wish her all the best. Yeah, wish her the best. And if we were if we were casting the show,
00:30:43
we probably cast her. Yeah,
00:30:48
Cam Patterson is uh Yeah, let's play. He's on uh our friend Tony Hencliffe
00:30:57
three weeks ago. And let me tell you how it happened to I was on Tinder. It was 3 o'clock in the
00:31:02
morning. Uh you know, at 3 o'clock in the morning, you want to [ __ ] something real bad. So I was just swiping like a [ __ ] I was just sending out
00:31:08
Hail Marys like a [ __ ] right? And at one swipe I just seen some big ass titties. I like So I just went, "I
00:31:14
want to suck your titties." And she responded, "Well, come suck them then." Oh, touchdown. So So I get to the crib,
00:31:22
right? And I don't see big ass titties. I see Dwayne Do the Rock Johnson in a wig. So now I am terrified. I'm scared
00:31:28
as [ __ ] So when I get out the house, I lock myself in the bathroom and I start doing research, right? I want to make
00:31:34
sure she really a lady, right? So, I'm in I'm scrolling and [ __ ] and I find out she was born a lady. So, I like, "Oh,
00:31:40
cool. We can [ __ ] now." But I don't know if y'all notice or not. If you ever [ __ ] a girl you think might be a
00:31:45
dude, your research never stops. So, 30 seconds in, we [ __ ]
00:31:51
missionary, right? And she think I'm trying to choke her, but I'm still in for Adam's apple.
00:31:58
But [ __ ] you ain't going to get me, stupid, dumb ass.
00:32:03
At one point, we were [ __ ] I felt so safe in her strong ass arms.
00:32:09
I just let myself go. I felt free. I felt so free and we were [ __ ] and at
00:32:14
one point she [ __ ] pressed me out of her [ __ ] and I just went I was having a
00:32:20
a great time. Okay. Well, is there a longer clip?
00:32:25
Cam is Cam is funny. I saw Cam at I went to the stand when I was in town in New
00:32:31
York last time and uh Tim Dylan was on. I I went on a show and it was me and Tim Dylan and Cam. Y
00:32:37
and Tim was hilarious of course and then uh Cam and those two guys are both in Bus Boys and I I wanted to see Cam
00:32:43
because I hadn't really seen him much and I never seen him in person and he was he has very interesting take on
00:32:49
these stories. Uh he had a story about his sister that was really funny. So, but long story short, I could see Cam on
00:32:57
that show. I could see it. Eddie Murphy vibes, that kind of stuff. You know what I mean? Yeah. I mean, I'm assuming because it's
00:33:04
sort of like, oh, tell that story on Update and how much would he have to compromise the rhythm of the language?
00:33:11
You can't say [ __ ] So, so I want to go make love to her, you know? And so, that's the only thing I would see. Does he must have bits
00:33:18
where it's just they're it's clean, right? Yeah. really rough on the edges stuff
00:33:23
and you know on Kill Tony that that's kind of how the vibe is but people like that and appreciate out there. Now does
00:33:29
it tame him down too much on SNL? I don't know that that's don't know but uh he has a very likable
00:33:35
vibe about him and a charismatic vibe. So you're you're compelled. Yeah. There's something uh about him that's
00:33:41
really really Yeah. He's a good-looking kid. He's got a lot of charm. So and he's telling this story that's like
00:33:47
and he's still just really likable throughout. I want some titties. And I see, you know, it's like, but there's
00:33:52
something about his uh utter honesty. Yeah. He knows what he's doing in the
00:33:57
standup. And uh and there's uh Tony Brennan. I don't think I know. Maybe I know. I don't.
00:34:03
No. Let's try Tony Brennan. Oh, okay. I've seen this kid. All right. Yeah. You don't see eight a lot anymore.
00:34:10
I think mainly because it's the wrong choice probably. Is that kids? You can't love eight kids individually.
00:34:18
You manage them like a sports franchise, you know? Like you love the overall team, sure, but you'd trade a couple
00:34:24
players. Absolutely. We all have these weird individual
00:34:29
relationships with our parents in my family. Like me and my dad are in a fun spot cuz my dad's a doctor and I don't
00:34:36
have health insurance. It rules because anytime he's like, "I
00:34:41
don't believe in your career." I'm like, "Dude, shame here." Right back at you, doc. That's why I
00:34:47
never called. That's out of pocket.
00:34:53
Yeah. Unfortunately, when I lost my health insurance, my dad kind of became my go-to doctor.
00:35:00
That's not a great relationship to have with your primary care physician. Me and him have to have little medical
00:35:05
check-ins. He'll be like, "Hey, you should drink less." And I'm like, "Hey, you should hug more.
00:35:13
Let's treat the root cause, not the symptom.
00:35:18
That's good. Okay. Yeah. And that was about him being from a family of one of eight.
00:35:24
Yeah. Yeah. Kind of. And that was on Fallon. It looked like uh I do like he wears a windbreaker, too. That's a funny look. It's a cool
00:35:30
He has a bit about that jacket. I saw in a different clip. Yeah, I know. Clean
00:35:36
cut, good-looking kid. Uh you know, they're all different so far. I I think
00:35:42
that Yeah, he's got a tinge of Melany uh in his looks. Um Okay. Yeah. Who else?
00:35:49
Should we go down and show the rest? I guess I Well, there's one more. I think there's uh is there one more? We did
00:35:56
for the first time. Are you ready for the balloon cuz we are about to set it.
00:36:03
Oh, what's this? Hold on. Wow. This feel This is actually Oh,
00:36:09
really? It's really helping. I feel great. A vast ye mie.
00:36:18
We no longer respect you. Oh, come on. Listen. Hey, his head. Hey, listen to me. You pirates. I won't
00:36:25
be challenged like this. You sound stupid. You sound like me. D. Listen. I'm not your father. I'm the
00:36:32
most feared pirate in all of the seven seas. We're going to go in there and
00:36:38
pillage and kill. Who's with me? Damn it.
00:36:43
Okay. Why does this pirate now sound like he's a two-bedroom on Wall Street? Is this an improv show? That's kind of
00:36:50
Okay, so that's off a show. Pirate needs to throw it low because I think that they got that and then they improvised it.
00:36:55
Yeah, I guess. Yeah. Well, that's pretty funny. Okay. Um, so that's the whole that's a whole squad,
00:37:02
I'm sure. And he's probably from an improv background. Well, I didn't know it was impro completely improv, but
00:37:07
yeah, he sort of was in his eyes he was having fun, you know.
00:37:12
Yeah. And it's always goodject that for sure. So, it's hard to tell. We wish him all the best. We're not saying we're talent
00:37:20
scouts, although, you know, uh Dennis recommended David and then
00:37:26
Lauren asked me what I thought of David and I said, "Uh, what why are you
00:37:32
pausing?" Oh, David Spay. Uh, well, what? Just say if yay or nay. I just
00:37:38
need an answer, please. Uh, [Music]
00:37:45
well, I co-signed you. Yeah, you did.
00:37:51
And Rob Schneider. No, it's a big all that stuff obviously was the biggest push because they hear
00:37:58
stuff on the streets. Everybody gets it from some whisper of like, "Have you heard about this guy? This guy's good.
00:38:03
Seen him in the clubs. You see Cam Unkill Tony. So something happens and someone sees you on
00:38:09
Instagram or and then enough people talk that they take a look and then your your
00:38:15
reps are pushing you, I guess. And then but if you have people on the inside going, "Oh, I know this person. They're
00:38:20
great." You know, that that helped me. It helps a lot of people. Yeah. because there is uh there's that
00:38:28
thing but there is sort of like I think for Lauren is um how
00:38:33
he's said this before but does the cast will they be friends will there not be conflict will will there be someone you
00:38:40
want to have dinner with or hang out with you know it's that sort of you don't want someone who is bringing toxic energy into the thing
00:38:48
unless they're a genius or they're [ __ ] brilliant but most are pretty humbled by that show even best and this
00:38:55
new cast. I mean, I think we can wrap up with this because this show is mostly going to be about that today, but
00:39:00
I think it's a good mix of those people we just saw. So, I think uh I think
00:39:07
they'll do a good job. It doesn't mean it won't be very dramatic as always, but I think they have some talent there. And
00:39:13
now it's now now the fun starts where you got to start writing and go, okay, and we didn't get Ben Marshall, but he's
00:39:19
been on there in Please Don't Destroy. He's the tall Oh, right. We didn't show him light hair, but we've seen his his his
00:39:24
work, his vibe. He's funny. And when is that first show? I mean, it is September. Holy.
00:39:30
October 4th. So, it's still like a month away of them hanging out there.
00:39:36
When you're new and you're around the office for a month, it's very stressful,
00:39:41
you know, because you, you know, it's out there where you got to go on live. We went on a Were you there when we all
00:39:47
went to Mohawk to all hang out like Yep. on a getaway
00:39:53
cast get together hanging get us all kind of together Sandler and bunk beds and barley
00:40:01
Mohunk and every time someone talked about malk talk I thought they were saying Mohunk wrong I'm like oh we went
00:40:07
to the coolest pl place Mohunk and everyone's like no one's gone to Mohawk except no it was a haunted hotel I did a I did
00:40:14
a movie there and it was absolutely haunted and Chris Farley was sleepwalking and We ended up spooning.
00:40:22
You know, he came to my room and it's like it was like, you know, he crawled in my bed.
00:40:28
Sure. You know, there's one quick story then we can end. But Norm said that when we were in that haunted hotel, Farley
00:40:35
said, "Norm, I have to tell you a secret. Come with me. No one can hear." And he goes, "All right." Because you
00:40:40
always go along with whatever Farley. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And and he walks him down. Then he goes, "Go down this elevator." Then they go go
00:40:46
in this [ __ ] dusty room underneath. And then he goes, "Pat's a girl."
00:40:51
And that was it. I love when someone goes so
00:40:57
We'll push our fan questions to next week cuz I like this talk. But we're going to um come back strong next week.
00:41:02
We'll show clips. We'll do news stories. Any feedback on this? We're just we're just like you. were fans of the show and
00:41:09
we just sort of went over everything and you know uh let us let us know your take
00:41:14
and God bless all those people because it's just a lot of the family is your
00:41:20
your your your siblings whoever and it's a lot of try to have fun. It never works
00:41:26
to say that, but that's that's the goal is when you're out there have inside your brain be having fun if possible.
00:41:33
And the people leaving are a little disoriented right now, but it will uh all be it's all works out well. They're already Heidi Gardner's a
00:41:40
big talent. She's going to go places. I see her on TV every 3 seconds. She's
