Action Park Media. Welcome

0:16

to Victory

0:16

the Podcast. I'm Doug Ellen. I'm Kevin

0:18

Dillon. Kevin Connolly. We're back

0:20

together. Yeah, it's been a while, fellas. You

0:22

guys are so obnoxious and so annoying

0:24

with your little fucking Irish tans. I mean,

0:28

I said, here it comes. Let's get right to it. I

0:30

set you up with, with the four

0:32

seasons, Maui seven

0:34

days and sweets, food, all

0:36

included. And the next thing I know you guys are off

0:39

to the Bahamas. Not a call. I understand. I'm not

0:41

a celebrity, but you're not a golfer either.

0:43

You were doing, you were doing like the beach though. You were doing

0:45

cast. You are

0:46

more of a celebrity than you are

0:48

a golfer. Doug

0:50

was doing his castaway reshoots. Can we talk about

0:52

this? Look, the beard is jealous

0:55

on calf. He's trying to be like us. He's got

0:57

the playoff. He grows, he grows a much better

1:00

beard than we do. You know, I'm chubbies sent

1:02

me this outfit and I'm like, I'm going to wear it. Although

1:05

it was embarrassing. I'll be honest.

1:06

I knew I was going to be in the car and drive right to the

1:08

studio. I forgot I have my dog. So

1:11

I just had to walk the dog outside to go to the

1:13

bathroom. And there's like two like pretty

1:15

edgy looking guys out there. And they just looked

1:17

at me like, what the fuck is this guy got

1:20

going on? This shirt? Why is this guy

1:22

got a chubby? Why is

1:24

he wearing a chubby? But you got the look is

1:26

great. I love it. How long has it been? But since you've

1:28

shaved them and you're fit, obviously been playing pickleball

1:31

in the heat. Yeah. I've been playing, you

1:33

know, high level pickleball, which I get in trouble

1:35

with the Apple podcast reviews when I talk

1:37

about it. But yeah, playing a lot of pickleball, Sean Avery, by the way,

1:39

that hotel had a bunch of pickleball courts. I

1:41

mean, they had about, so it's

1:44

hard not to think about you, Doug, when we're looking at those pickleball.

1:46

Yeah, I'm sure you were. So, I

1:48

mean, I see some pictures you got. Obviously

1:50

Jerry's there. Derek Jeter,

1:53

Ken Griffey, Jr. Charles Oakley,

1:56

Andrew Jones, Posada Martinez, Reggie

1:59

Jackson, Chandler.

1:59

Yeah.

2:02

Oh, Strayhand was there. Nick Swisher. Unbelievable.

2:06

Who else was there? I mean, it's just like, did you tell

2:08

Strayhand he needs to do the podcast? Cause I did. I'm

2:11

not sure I gave him his first role, but I gave him one of his first acting

2:13

gigs. Yeah. Yeah. And he, did you tell

2:15

him he needs to do the podcast? He's so

2:18

cool. Strayhand is the best. I love the best.

2:22

But we are going to do season four, episode 11,

2:25

no can do, which is

2:27

wild. I can't wait to get into this. We just can starts tomorrow.

2:29

But there's so much stuff. I just want to say this right

2:32

now. Next time we, because we review

2:34

the episode before we come on here and

2:36

there was a lot of banter in the middle of the episode and we

2:38

kind of missed some of the jokes. Sidechop. I don't want

2:41

to say any names, Kevin Connelly, but

2:43

we got to shut the fuck up. I'm going to watch these episodes.

2:45

I agree. You feel like some of your jokes were buried?

2:48

Yeah. I thought you were like talking over

2:50

some of my finest moments. Dylan had some really

2:52

great moments in this episode, but you missed

2:54

them because Connelly was, you know what? There's something going on

2:56

in action park me to Sean Avery, who was here. I love my outfit

2:58

by the way. You know,

2:59

X X ranger star, something's

3:02

going on. I don't know what and Connelly Connelly

3:04

in the middle of the episode, Connelly,

3:07

uh, looks at Sean, gives him like kind

3:09

of a fucking good fellas, like, like

3:11

head mod and they step outside and have a

3:13

private combo. Is everything okay? Everything's good.

3:15

You know, we, uh, we brought on bringing a CEO

3:18

and to run action park media over

3:21

the keys to a professional so

3:24

we can turn this into a winner. So

3:26

what is that money? Money coming

3:28

your way. It's also, I mean, it's still

3:29

obviously, you know,

3:31

still a high ranking position at

3:33

the company. It's my company, but we need a guy in here

3:35

to run the business part of it. And, uh,

3:37

we got a great guy. By the way, it might be a good, uh, bonus

3:39

episode, get him on a bonus episode of the pod

3:41

and talk about what it's going to take to, uh, you

3:44

know, we gotta, we gotta, uh, we gotta start making some

3:46

money. That's the bottom line. Gary

3:49

Goldman, Gary Goldman. This is part of the new

3:51

new regime. First AD

3:53

producer, everything else you brought, grandma producers,

3:55

bringing coffee, he brought me lunch. Something's

3:58

up. I bought you lunch.

3:59

Well, you bought it. He brought it. I'm more.

4:02

We worked as a team. I'm more impressed with the, uh,

4:04

it's called love. Thank you. The work ethic than the pay, but

4:06

you paid for lunch. I did pay for this is such

4:08

a great day. I drove three hours to get here and I know

4:11

you feel guilty about the Bahamas. I mean, it's

4:13

obvious. I don't, I don't, a couple of somebody, a couple

4:15

of people asked me that like, do you think Doug's

4:17

mad about the Bahamas? I'm like, well Doug's smart.

4:20

I mean, that's smart enough to understand why

4:22

he wouldn't you know, Doug, I did, I

4:24

did get you an invite to go up to Napa.

4:27

Remember I said that to you. You did. And

4:29

I got the invite for you to care for the show. I

4:31

would do that. Let's do the Schultz event. It's the

4:33

one of the best. You fly up on a private jet.

4:35

It's by the way, I'm not mad at all about you guys. Neither

4:38

of you got back to me. You big time. I don't

4:40

even know if I saw this, but I'll definitely go to Napa,

4:42

but I'm not, of course I'm not mad. I understood that. I mean,

4:44

this is high level celebrities and uh, gotta

4:47

be honest. I was surprised. We got

4:49

the invite. I mean, it was such a great trip. I

4:51

mean, it's four days to the Bahamas, but it's three

4:53

rounds of golf. 72. I've never in my life played

4:56

golf three days in a

4:57

row. They probably doesn't. How did you play? I've done

4:59

it lots of times. Um, you know, cause

5:01

obviously Derek's involved in the players Tribune as

5:03

well. So

5:04

there was a lot of, uh, content going

5:07

on. Lots of, lots of cameras around. So, but

5:09

I did drop that monster pot from

5:12

like 30 feet out. Yeah. And that was

5:14

like when Derek walked up with that on your Insta.

5:17

I Derek walked up and he's like, no, not yet. I'm waiting for

5:19

this episode. Derek was like, he had

5:21

to show me, he said, I'm wearing the wire and the cameras

5:23

for the first two holes. And I dropped that pot

5:25

on the second hole. So that's we'll live in the players

5:28

tribute archives. So, but how did you play

5:30

overall? Um, you know what? These

5:32

guys are all so good, bro. And I mean, like

5:34

Dylan, Dylan is a good Dylan, just a pure

5:36

golfer. He's been doing it for so long that Dylan,

5:39

but to watch, I play crappy when I play

5:41

with you guys,

5:42

my first day was great. And my third

5:44

day, but yeah, the middle day it was terrible.

5:46

I got no sleep. Like James Harden, as you would,

5:49

as you would imagine. I mean, you see Ken Griffey

5:51

Jr. Hit the golf ball, but I can't even imagine.

5:54

It's exactly what

5:58

you would think.

5:58

It's like, Oh, Ken Griffey Jr. you're probably crushes.

6:00

He's a lefty. Oh my goodness. Here it goes. Boom.

6:03

It's just like, it sounds good. He drove a par

6:05

four. That was probably three 20. I'm a

6:07

little jealous and

6:09

I'm not angry, but I'm a little jealous. I had, I had

6:11

one moment. Reggie Jackson, the

6:14

almighty Reggie. I had dinner with

6:16

Mr. October. You know, I was, I was

6:18

telling Lucas Lucas Ellen of entourage

6:21

fame. Doug's Doug's son was, was

6:23

in here and we were talking. I was saying, you know, Luke,

6:25

everybody eventually gets, gets old.

6:27

Reggie Jackson was hitting from like, you

6:30

know,

6:31

the ladies, not Griffey's teams. He was hitting

6:33

from the, he was hitting and it's like, well, you

6:35

know, they should have a senior tease out

6:37

there. They should have senior teams. He's forced to

6:39

go up to ladies. He's got a hit from pink.

6:42

There was pink shell for any

6:44

of the young people out there who don't know who Reggie

6:46

Jackson is. His nickname is Mr. October because

6:48

he would hit, I think he had more playoff home runs than

6:50

anyone, especially before they were

6:52

wild series to

6:54

win against the Dodgers. Yeah. Yeah. And

6:56

a candy bar named after him. Yeah. But it

6:59

was great. We had a great, any

7:01

like real heavy

7:03

celebrity. Reggie, Reggie was

7:05

a man, but he said, I love Reggie. I had dinner with Reggie

7:10

and the first 20

7:12

minutes and he is a little old. I was like,

7:14

Oh my God, I'm going to have to fight Reggie Jackson. He

7:16

was so nasty to me and it

7:19

just kept going. And I just was trying. You're mixing

7:21

up old and nasty. So being old doesn't

7:23

mean you gotta be next. Oh, definitely not. But

7:25

I'm saying, no, the old was I wouldn't fight Reggie

7:27

Jackson in 1978. No, no, no, no, of

7:29

course. Yeah. I get what you're saying about the

7:31

old thing. I

7:33

mean, I'm just saying like I could probably take

7:35

him. He's probably 75. Right. I

7:38

think you take Reggie. Yeah.

7:40

And he's

7:42

kind of an old man, but, but yeah,

7:44

he, he is. He's in, but that's the sort of the

7:46

rap for him. I know he's, he's still

7:48

Reggie. He's still the same guy that was,

7:51

you know,

7:51

acting crazy and you

7:54

know, 1978 Yankee stadium. So did Derek

7:56

Jeter check in as Johnny drama or not?

7:59

No, not today.

7:59

He's like, I can't do it anymore. Cause you guys ruined

8:02

my Ellie's. We've exposed

8:04

it. Right. But Cheetah, he admitted

8:07

he's confirmed it a hundred percent. And Chandler

8:09

Parsons was Vinnie Chase. Yes. Chandler

8:12

Parsons. Got a good, I mean, by the way, Chandler

8:14

sent me the picture of the four you worst picture I've ever seen,

8:16

but I posted anyway, like we couldn't get a, all

8:20

four of you sitting on the couch. Like you couldn't stand

8:22

up for one second. I mean, there was so much content

8:24

happening on this. We laughed so

8:26

hard at that photo because Chandler's arm looks

8:29

like a giant

8:29

lobster. Come on. He looks like he's got the

8:32

biggest arm ever. Yeah. You know what? He said that when

8:34

he said it to me, he goes, do I have the longest time you've ever seen?

8:36

And then when I posted it, I said the new

8:38

Vinnie Chase, like some people don't know who he is. They were like

8:40

really mad. How could you not

8:42

a guy with that arm? No way.

8:45

What do you mean? Oh, that he was just too tall to be.

8:47

I don't even know what they were saying, but anyway, he's a great

8:49

ex NBA player who really, you know, was having

8:51

a great career until he got, he got in a car accident.

8:53

Is that what happened? Yeah. Yeah. He was having a, I

8:56

mean, what an athlete, great

8:58

athlete. Did he

8:59

talk about, uh, because I, you

9:02

turned out a great athlete. I've played some pickleball

9:04

with Chandler and done some damage to

9:06

that. He told me what a great athlete

9:08

you are actually. He's like, Doug is really good.

9:10

Yeah. He confirmed the 50 plus pickleball No,

9:14

Doug, my pitch on pickleball view is that in

9:17

an over 50 year world class,

9:20

I can't say you're world-class, but

9:22

your world-class over 50. But I'm not gonna lie. When I see the

9:24

videos, I don't really see you moving your

9:26

feet much. It's usually just in place,

9:29

slamming the ball. I'm not kidding. I'm

9:31

kidding. Did you see your moving around?

9:33

I was like, what are you doing? What are you doing?

9:35

What are you opening? One? I'm nervous. Cause there's

9:38

one jerk off. Oh, I swear I know who it is. But on apple

9:40

podcast, they keep writing how insufferable I am.

9:42

And I talk about pickleball and I should be basically be shot.

9:44

And that would be a lot. Let me tell

9:46

me, I, I virtue signal and

9:48

to this person, I want you to know, I don't

9:50

virtue signal. And if I could get away with it, I'd fucking

9:52

get away with that. I don't know. I don't know

9:54

what virtue signal. It's like when you try to pretend

9:56

you're like this good guy by talking about things

9:58

that, that make you sound very versatile.

9:59

But anyway irrelevant but something

10:02

did you signal likes

10:04

you're sending out like oh if this is what I'm supposed

10:07

to be Yeah to fit with the time

10:09

Do you think I try to fit in with the times

10:11

Kevin or do you think I'm you know? Get

10:14

mad at me that I don't try to fit in with the time So I

10:16

don't play the game which I don't I swear to work.

10:18

I fit in with the 50s Dylan

10:21

does but anyway last pickable thing, but

10:23

there is June 18th.

10:24

There's a Major league pickleball

10:27

which I own a piece of the Chicago slice.

10:29

We have a thing So they said do you want

10:31

to play in the owners? Tournament

10:34

or what are the owners thing which I just like of course

10:36

I want to play I thought it'd be just like a fun thing the next thing

10:38

I know There's a draft

10:41

and they're like pickleball writers are

10:43

writing who's getting drafted and where they're

10:45

supposed to go and all this and there's like James

10:47

Blake who was a top 20 tennis players in

10:49

this there's a couple other professional tennis players And we're

10:52

just gonna have to clean up the clean. We're gonna

10:54

have to clean you up before you go on June 18

10:57

to go in looking bearded Yeah, like

10:59

but I was drafted 11 I was drafted 11

11:01

which I feel really good about it a lot of some

11:03

of the writers

11:04

like That that's the sleeper

11:06

pick of the draft or pick of the draft Ellen

11:08

in the second round and you're tough But I

11:11

like it because I'm the only person I've never I played

11:13

in one real tournament So I'm

11:15

not even rated or anything So, you know

11:17

being good or not is irrelevant until you actually

11:20

win a tournament How hot is it in the

11:22

desert right now? It's is the heat

11:24

gonna force you back to LA anytime soon Well, I'm

11:26

in June 1st. I'm back here. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah,

11:29

so but I hope we don't have

11:31

to see you doing that scratch thing anymore after

11:33

what's the scratch the pickleball scratch Did

11:40

you see my behind the back shot against

11:42

French Open champion Michael Chang What

11:47

are you doing man? What

11:50

else can we talk about cuz I got other things. Well, we we

11:52

want to we're gonna I think we're ready to

11:54

go into We're gonna take a break. We're gonna come back

11:56

with season four. That's 11. No can do but

11:59

what are your clothes clothes?

11:59

thoughts before we get into the episode. No, I just thought you guys

12:02

would have some good stories. Well, I want to talk about

12:04

Buddy Games 10. Oh, let's talk about Buddy Games 10. It's a freaking

12:06

great dude. Yeah. I swear to

12:08

God. Can we help cover the

12:11

press junkets, victory at the action party?

12:13

Yeah. Yeah, hopefully we can do something. I want to get Josh

12:15

in here. Josh DeMell will come

12:17

in here and do a party with us. He

12:20

should. He's ready to do it. It'd be a good hit for a good piece

12:22

of publicity for the movie. When's it coming out?

12:24

I don't know. It's coming out for sure, though,

12:27

soon. All right. All right. I'll

12:29

let you know. It's a bigger budget, more money, this one, right?

12:31

So it's like a little bit more and not a lot.

12:33

But I mean, it just came out really good. Right.

12:36

It's really good. So you like it better than one.

12:38

I do, actually. It's like aliens. Yeah, alien.

12:40

It's aliens. Dylan is

12:43

part of an ongoing franchise. Which is cool.

12:45

It's kind of like it's like

12:48

entourage in some ways where it's a bunch

12:50

of guys. And it's got

12:52

heart, too, when they care about each other. It's

12:54

not entourage. But you mainly

12:57

love dudes. But you mainly just love dudes. I

12:59

was getting a bunch of tweets this weekend. And you

13:01

know, look, a lot of the people who worked on ballers

13:03

are good friends and love them. And I wish

13:06

them all the success. But a lot of people are like,

13:08

I

13:08

noticed ballers is basically the same

13:10

show as entourage. No, it's

13:12

not actually. And I, it's the last

13:14

thing I'll ever say about it. But I

13:17

don't think people are going to be quoting ballers things in 20

13:19

years. I don't think so. I don't think

13:22

that's going to happen. But again,

13:24

Connelly, see, this is what I'm talking about. He is so

13:26

silent. And now he hates when I start getting nasty. You

13:29

know what they call me on Quickshif podcast,

13:31

the polisher. You

13:34

polish it. No, no, in the room

13:36

because I'm there to like, you know, take the sting out

13:38

of any of that kind of stuff. Well, yeah. What do

13:40

you mean? Let's get all up your chest. I mean, let's get

13:42

all up my chest. Look, again, I love everyone involved.

13:45

And there's a lot of, a lot of, a lot of good people involved.

13:47

You've been on a heater. I just find it

13:49

insulting to compare entourage

13:51

and ballers. I find it insulting. And I don't care if they have similar,

13:53

you

13:54

know, they go, everything always works out, which in

13:56

this can episode, everything always works out. Yeah. Everything

13:58

always works out. Okay. That's, that's not.

13:59

what the show was as most

14:02

of you who like entourage know we

14:04

were a real look at friendship

14:07

and loyalty and family. And I

14:09

think that's why the show has stuck with people for as

14:11

long as it has. And you can

14:13

try to emulate it or do whatever

14:15

you want. But the original concoction

14:18

that was all of us agreed by the way, it's not

14:20

going to be emulated. And also I just,

14:22

it's just, oh, cause it took place at an

14:25

agency. It's like saying, you know, like

14:27

any, any sitcom that takes places

14:29

a bar is like cheers. It's not, it's all about

14:31

the writing and the casting and, and we

14:34

did something special and I do not like to be compared.

14:36

Social media. And I wasn't compared, I just want to

14:39

say, no, I didn't mean to you don't don't don't say that again.

14:42

I would never compare. I mean, there was,

14:44

this is as good as it gets entourage

14:46

is the top always. Doug took a hiatus

14:48

from social media and then came out blasting.

14:51

Do you remember what it was that set you off?

14:53

Um, did I come back with a set

14:55

off or I was just like, came

14:57

out fire and I'm, and I, I looked

15:00

at you. I'm like, that's how, hey, if you're coming out,

15:02

if you're coming out of there, you're coming off the

15:04

bench. That's how you come off the bench. That's

15:07

some, yeah, the six man, you came out blasting.

15:09

What? I don't know who you were mad at somebody

15:12

about. You know what? I don't, I don't even know what I just know.

15:14

I've had some revelations. When did you take a

15:16

hiatus from, he said he was taking

15:18

out. I don't remember that. It was may, it was going to be,

15:21

uh, there was like middle of April and

15:23

it was going

15:23

to be June 1st. I was like, this is no

15:25

way he's going to make it. I made

15:27

it 11 days and I, I had some thoughts though.

15:30

You know, I, I last thing and then we'll get right into the

15:33

episode and I know I'm insufferable and I'm hard to listen

15:35

to, but I had theories for us that I think are

15:37

interesting because right now, um, you

15:39

know, ramble on update, uh, there's a writer

15:41

strike of his dad is literally shut down. I mean, it's

15:43

insane. It is, it is legitimately shut down.

15:46

People can't even talk to me if they wanted to. I'm not

15:48

sure they want to anyway, but they, they can't. It's a weird

15:50

time. Well, listen, you're a high profile

15:52

writer. It's,

15:53

it's literally illegal for you

15:55

to not illegal, but you would be crossing the picket line.

15:57

If you were talking to, I don't cross picket lines, but.

15:59

I want to say did either of you

16:02

watch and we'll get over this quickly chimp

16:04

empire on Netflix now

16:06

Okay, chimp Empire is phenomenal.

16:08

Yeah, and it's also good. I put a line with Kennedy

16:11

like we'll watch It's

16:13

like a docu-net like one of those like yeah, but

16:15

they do it with a narrator and it's like The

16:19

monkey protects it. Yeah one review

16:21

said it's succession with chimps What's

16:24

so interesting about it? My real quick theory on life

16:26

and where we're at right now as we enter our Twilight

16:32

we got we shared 98. I'm sure Dylan is a

16:34

scientist 98% of our DNA

16:36

with chimps Yeah, and we are closest.

16:39

Yeah, we are so fucking similar

16:41

to them. It's crazy So they're very social and they have

16:44

groups But they got one fucking bully

16:46

who takes over and is more like a dictator

16:49

They got the sensitive chimp and they got the

16:51

the chimp who kind of wants the title Yeah,

16:54

he's gonna eventually challenge the main guy

16:56

for the title amazing, but then there's other

16:58

chimp

16:59

Armies in other places and they'll

17:01

go to war over like a fucking fruit

17:03

tree or land or this and that So

17:06

they basically do what humans is so I'm combining

17:08

us monkeys I'm

17:11

gonna combine this with this other things. I listen

17:13

this podcast Barry Weiss is a really good podcast,

17:16

but she had this Writer

17:18

on who was talking about human history and

17:20

up until 500 years ago, you

17:23

know human history There was nothing but we were hunter-gatherers

17:25

essentially, you know, maybe whatever a thousand years We

17:28

were hunter-gatherers you woke up in the morning You

17:30

went and got your food and if you didn't

17:33

you might not survive and that was it you weren't

17:35

day trading Yeah and now we got this

17:37

world now where we live in which I've talked

17:39

about this before where every single day

17:42

because I went out and

17:43

Got us to make this pilot. I have

17:45

to answer to everyone. I know

17:48

every single day. What's going

17:50

on with the show? What's happening with the show

17:52

and you sort of you start to feel like humiliated

17:54

even though I was totally happy before I made The show

17:56

that I was never gonna work again. I was like, I'm

17:58

retired playing pickle

17:59

My point is the chimps

18:02

don't have this fucking pressure. Chimps got nothing

18:04

else going on. They just, they hang on

18:06

a tree and they hope that they survive. And

18:08

that's what humans would have done before the

18:10

whole industrial revolution. Anyway, it's a people. Well, they

18:13

always got to wear the chip next, then might just rip

18:15

their nuts right off. Because they will rip your nuts.

18:17

But you might do that to Connelly. I could

18:19

do that. So yeah, my

18:21

point is, is I'm just like, I think so

18:23

much of what's going on in the world right now. You would rather

18:25

just be a chimp in a tree, like protecting

18:28

your fruit basket. I don't know if I'd

18:30

rather, but I told Sarah that I just thought

18:32

like, I see your point. I think about it all the

18:34

time. I'm just tired of the woods.

18:36

Like

18:36

they didn't have to go, man,

18:38

I'm so dissatisfied with my life. I got to accomplish

18:41

more. I got to do this. I really

18:43

got to eat better. I got, you know, we

18:45

spent so much time on this. And anyway, that was, we need a

18:47

bigger tree. Yeah. Well, this is ridiculous.

18:49

The size of that tree that, that group

18:52

is that Connelly chip has the biggest tree

18:54

of the jungle. Let's go take it back. Anyway.

18:56

So my point was everybody, you don't like,

18:59

if you can

19:00

provide for your family, fortunately I

19:02

can. If you can wake up

19:04

with a happy smile and you got hell, happy,

19:06

healthy kids, cause that's everything. If your kids aren't

19:09

happy and healthy, there's nothing good, but you

19:11

got to enjoy it. And you know,

19:14

I was enjoying it before I would like the show to

19:16

go. I really would like to show to go. And I really

19:18

believe it will and should, but I

19:20

just don't want to answer any more about it. And

19:22

I don't want to be compared to bowlers. When

19:25

we put it on here, you

19:26

know, you're going to have to answer to it. When you put it on

19:28

the podcast, by the way,

19:30

there's a lot of talk about a reboot lately.

19:33

You know, we didn't tell him he pivots

19:35

kind of fired up. Yeah. He

19:37

called that. Yeah. Say make

19:39

the call, make the call Mark. Yeah.

19:42

I mean, listen, what's going on with that? You think

19:44

here, here's the only thought, and I don't mean

19:47

to sound cynical or, or, or negative,

19:49

but my, my thought is Mark does so

19:51

much, right? All it takes, Kev,

19:53

come on, you know, in a press junket where you're doing something

19:56

and you do

19:57

countless interviews that could have

19:59

just been a sound. from him somewhere

20:01

about what because that's where it really started right

20:03

right way it came from mark mark said

20:06

no mark mark said something

20:08

in an interview right and they it got clipped

20:10

right so that was but

20:12

who knows what context he said that well

20:15

the New York Post had an exclusive

20:17

so I had a big art what did he say I

20:19

said he'd support it so that's

20:22

you know that's not the chimp you want run

20:24

in the jungle you want the guy because here's

20:28

what I said from the get-go of this podcast

20:30

I believe there's gonna be a reboot

20:32

I really do I've always believed that they'll

20:34

at some point and we've seen the pendulum

20:37

swing so much from when we started this

20:39

podcast where we were getting so much animosity about

20:41

the show and now it honestly feels like all

20:43

love again there's a few people like a few people on

20:46

even on our Instagram page which if

20:48

you are listening to this you can help and

20:50

and follow the page spread the word

20:53

tell people about the podcast because the more we

20:55

can grow this the better chance it'll happen but I do believe it'll

20:57

happen but mark you know if mark

20:59

really wants it to happen because he's much

21:01

closer with HBO because

21:02

he's made several shows after

21:05

ours and he really got on the

21:07

horn and said I want to go make this show

21:09

then it would really write if you really

21:11

wanted to push in but it was awesome

21:13

because Melanie Miller

21:16

who's our friend who was who's in Ramble on as a TMZ

21:18

reporter she caught Piven did you

21:20

see that interview with Piven because you can hear it

21:22

at the beginning she goes Jeremy and you hear Jeremy

21:24

under his breath he goes oh no where

21:28

was he going I don't know I don't know but

21:30

so she asked him and it's funny the

21:32

way the press takes it though

21:34

because he didn't call out

21:36

mark which a bunch of the articles go yeah that's what

21:38

I thought yeah no he just said it's out

21:40

to mark talk to mark yes and

21:42

the truth is mark is the most powerful in the group

21:45

at the moment and then just like the chimps Connolly

21:48

might be Watson Watson was the Watson

21:51

was the side ship who was waiting for his

21:53

moment so he's side gym you're a side

21:56

gym but anyway a

21:58

reboot is gonna happen but if you want

23:55

coming

24:00

out well, because it's a filler episode.

24:02

Yeah, right. It's all about the next episode is

24:05

in can. So this is all about us getting,

24:07

I know, but I kind of, that's my argument I make about

24:09

the show. The show is filler. The show

24:11

is about the moments, the moments of getting on

24:13

the plane. And that's why I said when someone says, you

24:15

know, ballers, it always worked out. Well, whatever.

24:17

I mean, this show you, we wanted

24:20

you for the most part till season seven, we

24:22

wanted you to be happy. We wanted you to want to be

24:24

on the plane with the guys. We wanted Kanye

24:26

not to hate Jews, but he did. But we wanted

24:28

you to want to be on that plane

24:30

and go, go. He

24:32

might not have hated him yet. He might

24:34

not have been there yet. What I do remember is Jeremy

24:36

throwing grapes at him. Do you remember that? Well, let's,

24:38

let's, let's back up because again, I

24:40

don't even, we started this episode. I'm like,

24:43

I remember the Sydney Pollock and obviously the Kanye

24:45

part of it, regardless of what happened with Kanye

24:48

after became a bit of a, you know,

24:50

iconic moment for the show. Kanye was the first

24:52

time that song or, right. Better, better.

24:54

The way this whole episode starts and maybe

24:57

the filler comes out of that. And I don't remember exactly,

24:59

but Scott Venner,

25:00

who's our great music guy, he

25:03

called us up and said,

25:06

whoever he talked to, I think G Robeson who

25:08

was, is with Kanye and Cindy said they, they want to debut

25:10

the song on the show. That's how, that's

25:12

how good the show is. And

25:14

so I think we figured out a story

25:17

around ending it with the song. And

25:19

I believe that was the world premiere of the song,

25:21

but we talked about it with Venner when he was on,

25:23

but I don't remember. I do remember Kanye

25:26

rewriting his whole bit and

25:28

you were like, you were like, no, no, no, no, no, no.

25:30

Do it as it's written. Doug

25:32

put his foot down and said, he said, listen, you two

25:34

motherfucker, I'll do what I want. I don't

25:37

remember that. Yeah. Yeah. You didn't take any shit

25:39

from him. You said, read this. What I do remember.

25:42

I think Doug was probably annoyed. Cause he was late. Yeah. I

25:44

mean, he made us wait

25:45

for two hours and then wanted to do everything

25:48

completely different. And also he brought, I

25:50

think her name is Melissa. She, she's

25:53

the good looking flight attendant.

25:55

There, there were a couple of them, but she's a really

25:57

good looking flight attendant. I think he brought her with her.

25:59

And

26:00

there's one shot in this episode that was,

26:03

I mean, you know, was nothing to

26:05

do with me, but when you talk about over and yeah,

26:07

I mean, Addie, it's I gotta tell you, I mean,

26:09

he framed it like I forget whose face

26:11

is talking. Maybe Billy Walsh, maybe Reese, but

26:14

it's just basically the curve

26:16

of her ass and a face. I mean, it's like out

26:18

of focus. It's absolutely

26:21

ridiculous, but it's a nice shot and a good ass.

26:23

But if you really think about too, I mean a big chunk of

26:26

it happened at the airport. Yeah. So

26:28

for us, a very contained episode.

26:30

We were

26:30

at Hyde. Jerry was wearing an

26:33

absolutely ridiculous. Why would

26:35

Jerry be wearing that sweater? Has he met Jamie yet?

26:37

No, right?

26:39

No, because that's when he started becoming more preppy.

26:41

I have no idea why he's dressed like that. He's

26:43

his word of a sweater

26:45

vest. And it was, it was like, doesn't Jamie

26:48

Lynn read dressing like what I had

26:50

on either. I had him on like a pink golf

26:52

shirt or something. It was weird. I don't know who what's

26:55

going on with the wardrobe. Is season

26:57

four season four, episode 11. I'm

26:59

confused because I believe as I remember

27:02

it, once he starts dating Jamie, she

27:04

starts to make him more preppy, but for whatever reason

27:06

he had on set. He looked good, but it was, it was

27:08

like, we're,

27:09

you know, we're talking about the terror alert at her

27:11

at the airport. And drama is profile

27:13

that guy. They're trying to be friends with me

27:17

just to make sure he wasn't, you know, a bad guy.

27:19

You befriend him. Like he's not going to, that really

27:21

was my down on savory characters.

27:23

That seriously was my theory in life though.

27:25

I'm not kidding. I gone planes when it really,

27:27

it's, it's so weird now because remember how scared

27:30

they made us after nine 11 that everyone was

27:32

a terrorist. And now, now that's not even like,

27:34

doesn't even feel like a thing. Now we've got to worry about

27:36

white people, I guess, but you know what I'm saying? It's like, yeah, we

27:38

do. They've

27:39

really, no kidding. They've really moved

27:41

it though. That, that, that, you know, you don't

27:43

have to worry about that anymore, but at the time we were. And that's

27:45

remember that story, Kevin, when I was on the plane

27:48

and there was a guy and he,

27:50

he was darker skin. So I profiled

27:52

him. I feel bad, but he looked angry and

27:55

sweaty and mad. And I was terrified because

27:57

it was, it wasn't right after nine 11.

27:59

You know, and I was nervous the whole fucking

28:02

time and I was thinking in my head, be

28:04

friendly to him, make him like you do this.

28:06

And I kept trying to talk to him and he kept ignoring me. And

28:08

he was, Oh, where

28:10

are you from? What are you doing? You're past? I was hoping he'd

28:13

spare you and tell everyone else. He

28:15

was tapping his feet and tapping his feet. And

28:17

I was like, fuck, why are you so angry with this guy?

28:19

And I go, finally, I just got up the nerve

28:22

to try to get a little tough. And I was like,

28:24

what's up?

28:25

And he goes, I work at APA. And

28:27

that was wearing the APA hat. That was the day

28:30

after. No, it was the day after the episode aired. Where

28:32

are you? Who let APA in? Exactly. Which

28:34

is an agency out here. We've talked about it before, but we

28:36

insulted an agency again. It was a joke. It was a

28:38

bit, but he was, so he was mad because

28:40

of that line. He was really mad.

28:43

And I was like, Oh my God, thank God. I thought you were a terrorist.

28:47

Doug, if I, if I, if

28:49

I may, I feel, how did the Sydney Pollock

28:51

thing come?

28:52

Because it,

28:54

Sydney Pollock, I mean, to me it was great. I

28:57

was like, so I couldn't even, I could hardly even speak

28:59

to Sydney. So I want you, you are a blubbering

29:01

fool. I just was like, I didn't know what could I

29:04

say to him? I didn't even really talk to him because he's

29:06

Sydney Pollock, but I just felt like, Hey,

29:08

Sydney Pollock wants to do a show. What can we write for him?

29:10

Am I wrong? You know what? What I could say

29:12

is I don't make any sense. What used to happen

29:14

is I used to think about who my favorite filmmakers

29:17

and athletes were and actors, but

29:19

the actors were the hardest to get the, the athletes

29:22

were the easiest to get. And the coaches would fall somewhere in the middle.

29:24

But Sydney

29:24

Pollock is one of my idols and for whoever

29:26

doesn't know who he is, one of the great directors,

29:29

he passed away sadly. Not too long

29:31

after he shot, right?

29:33

Wow. If that's true, I felt like four

29:35

years ago. No, I think, I think, I think he, he

29:37

passed pretty, pretty close to, I may

29:39

be mistaken. We'll check, but yeah, but

29:41

he, he directed a three

29:43

days in the Condor. I mean, he's directed a ton of things, but

29:46

eyes wide shot. He directed eyes wide shot

29:48

out of Africa. I think he won the Oscar for,

29:50

but he's also,

29:51

in my opinion, one of the funniest actors

29:54

and Tootsie is one of the

29:56

greatest performances, comedy performances

29:58

I've ever seen. He plays. the Ari

30:00

Gold of the movie Tootsie, which is an

30:02

incredible movie that you should check out. But

30:04

he was such a good guy. So

30:07

as I recall, I was just like,

30:09

let's get, you know, like we need someone

30:11

to fly them. See, right? I think

30:13

so. So that was probably in the script. And then the Kanye thing

30:15

came up. So you added it. The

30:18

way I feel I remember it. And we should have

30:20

gotten Weiss on here. But on May

30:22

26th, 2008. So

30:24

it was right after that. Dave, you're gonna get fired. That

30:26

was Lucas Ellen. That was Lucas Ellen, ladies and gentlemen.

30:29

Whose phone is that? Bush leader. So embarrassing.

30:31

Bush leader. Wow. Unbelievable.

30:36

Take care of my children. So

30:38

anyway, as I

30:39

remember it, we wrote the whole episode based

30:41

on the fact that they wanted to premiere the song.

30:43

And I believe I could think the whole episode

30:46

was written around that. Yeah, I do.

30:48

I could be totally wrong. I mean, I

30:50

guess it could make sense, but I mean that whole episode

30:52

was like us getting, getting to get,

30:55

I think we, we, we came up with something

30:57

to like

30:58

get us to an airport where Kanye would save

31:00

the day. I really do. I could be totally

31:02

wrong. Like we talked about before we

31:04

miss remember things, but that's how I'm

31:06

remembering it at the moment. And the other,

31:09

the ironic things about this episode is a real

31:11

can one you're listening to this started today.

31:13

Yeah. So can is actually going

31:16

on and people are figuring out how to get there

31:18

flying. There's so much catch a ride with this

31:20

one. Can you fly private? Are you flying commercial? Like

31:23

those are conversations. They're

31:25

talking to Anna Faris about silo about silo.

31:27

I can't

31:28

believe the show is talking

31:30

about. There's a show airing

31:32

on Apple TV starting billboard on the 9,000 building

31:34

of sun on sunset

31:37

Boulevard or wherever it is.

31:38

They're making silo. So that's silo Ferrari

31:41

Gatsby. Well, Aquaman also saw

31:44

what's coming out right now with Mike Tyson, what?

31:46

Medellin on Amazon. Yeah. I

31:49

mean, listen, and by the way, you're

31:51

not, of course you're not saying just so we're clear

31:53

because I'm an insufferable fucking narcissist. No

31:56

one stole Medellin from me. I read the book killing

31:58

Pablo at the four.

31:59

reasons, Maui, Hawaii, which I'm no longer

32:02

invited to. I read the book

32:04

there and said, oh, this should be a great movie

32:06

for Vince. Nobody has stolen any

32:08

of my ideas, billions they stole me, but

32:10

nobody stole any of my ideas to make those

32:12

shows. I just, I love it. That we- Silo?

32:16

Yeah. I mean, that doesn't even make any sense.

32:18

I mean, Medellin at least made Medi, by the way, Medellin.

32:21

Medellin. Medellin, at least makes sense. Silo,

32:23

what the fuck is going on? What planet are

32:25

we on? It's wild. Reese is

32:28

like, I obviously like Anna Faris.

32:29

Reese is hitting on Anna Faris, wants to turn

32:32

the brother role into a sister or whatever.

32:35

And it's crazy, but Doug, I know you don't remember

32:37

this, but we've talked on the show about,

32:40

your interpretation of the words on the page.

32:42

And in the scene where Anna Faris and I break

32:44

up, whatever it is, she fires me or we

32:46

break up,

32:47

we acted that scene out differently than

32:50

you wrote it. And I

32:52

think maybe because the finale was coming up and you were buried

32:55

in the finale, you weren't there when we were shooting it, but

32:57

I did get the call from Doug going,

32:59

what the fuck is wrong with you? What did you do?

33:01

What did you do? To my scene. Yes.

33:04

And I'm like, My words. Yeah. We

33:07

just read it wrong. Thank God you just got the call. Cause if he showed up

33:09

later on the set, you would have, went back

33:11

to one and reshoot the whole thing. Had to reshoot the

33:13

whole thing. I've seen you do it. But I guess

33:15

the only thing I could say, looking at it now

33:17

without trying to be critical, it

33:20

almost feels like that end of that scene is like

33:22

a Seinfeld comedic turn. Like

33:25

I'm here to, I'm here to tell

33:27

her a lie. I'm here to lie. I'm

33:29

here to lie. And then she goes, you're cute. And it's like, I can't

33:31

lie. And it didn't play very comedically.

33:34

It was fine. It was a great storyline

33:36

with Ana. And then it just, I don't know, man, it

33:38

ended weirdly. And I guess you said she's a, she's a big

33:40

movie star, whatever. Maybe she wasn't around.

33:43

I don't know.

33:43

Is that it for her? That's it. Really?

33:46

That's it. Because when we,

33:48

when we come back from Ken and when

33:51

season five, we're, we're, we're back from

33:53

Ken. And I'm with back with Sloan.

33:56

I think she sees because I mean, what I would,

33:59

cause you.

34:00

You mixed business and pleasure and you did

34:02

it in a bad way because you were lying to her you were at

34:04

her house to lie To her and tell her that you liked the

34:06

script and then once she said she thinks she cute I can't

34:09

lie to her. I didn't communicate

34:12

That properly in the scene.

34:14

No, I remember I remember because

34:16

I remember thinking like hey man Look,

34:19

we obviously we weren't trying to mess the scene up

34:21

Yeah But

34:22

we did the scene

34:23

and you know director tells you to do what

34:25

to do and you you know I'll take it to with

34:28

greatness to a certain extent you also didn't know that

34:30

was her final scene, right? Yeah, I don't

34:32

know. I just again. We don't know what or

34:34

why but she's supposed to be mad at him

34:37

She was supposed to be maybe mad at him. Yeah Yeah,

34:43

right you've been telling me for a week

34:45

or whatever that that you want that

34:47

this movie is great and now know what yeah, I

34:50

Am having flashbacks and

34:53

again, they may not be real It

34:55

might be just made up in your eye just voices.

34:57

I think a good portion of that scene is cut

34:59

out I think you guys have

35:02

a little bit of a fight.

35:03

I really do and I think we cut it out That's

35:05

probably what happened now that may have been cut

35:08

out before we ever shot it in the writing. No, no,

35:10

no It we shot it a certain way

35:12

and when the dailies came back you called me and

35:14

said

35:15

What the fuck cuz you know it cuz the end of it right

35:17

there when I watched it there I was like it's a weird

35:19

fucking ending. It just right like well,

35:21

that's what it was. It probably cut the scene in half Yeah,

35:23

see you got cut Wow. Thanks. Good

35:25

work. Have good work Connolly.

35:27

Good work. That's why I'm a first We'll call it for

35:30

the podcast. We can't get her on the podcast But um

35:32

that house that opening shot in that house is incredible.

35:35

What a great house So Sam Nazarian who owns

35:37

that house anymore, but yeah, that's right It went

35:39

directly across the street from Leo's house. I mean

35:41

that house looks so goddamn

35:44

good It was so hard to film there, but it looks

35:46

incredible film there much. We did

35:48

the one season there Yeah, but if we were even we

35:50

weren't even there much during that it seemed like

35:52

well Sam acted

35:53

in the episode He was good and him and Brent both

35:55

has had hide wait hide which is now

35:58

called off sunset stock tip

35:59

Dave's favorite place that he got thrown out of. Dave

36:02

got bounced from Hyde from an illegal

36:04

entry. Wait, does Brent talk in this episode?

36:07

Yeah, he was with Sam. I turned my back for a second or

36:09

something. Yeah, he was with Sam. That must have been when Colley

36:11

went for his conference, his CEO conference. Yo,

36:13

but one of the things about that house, Kev, there

36:15

was never

36:16

that area, like

36:18

the season three house, the kitchen was such

36:20

that

36:21

you could almost put any scene in the kitchen, right?

36:24

This house didn't have that kitchen. What

36:26

it did have was a 300 degree view of Los

36:28

Angeles. So

36:31

we did. All right, let's get Dylan

36:33

at the grill. Great pull. That's

36:35

probably a $25, $30 million house. I'm

36:39

sure. I mean, it looks incredible though. Even like the

36:41

shots where you see the pool in the background, that pool is so

36:44

blue and you see like a little bit of

36:46

the Hollywood look. It's amazing. And

36:49

then when we come and then the next episode is actually

36:51

we can and that would wrap

36:53

up season four of all the

36:55

episodes that we've covered. Wow. What have you thought

36:58

of this season as a whole? We had problems with this season

37:00

at times, didn't we? I

37:02

know I feel, you know, now that

37:04

watching it and knowing that Candace

37:06

coming up next, I think season four is great. Right.

37:09

Yeah, there were a couple episodes that I thought were

37:11

less, but I thought this episode was great. I love that last

37:13

episode. I mean, let's talk about more about this

37:15

episode. I mean, Reese, he's

37:18

so good.

37:20

And you represent

37:22

Anna Ferrisy. Nice. Nice.

37:25

What do you call your fruit cup? Yeah. Dylan

37:29

and I. I can't remember my line, but I said, I

37:31

like a lot of options too while traveling

37:34

abroad. I got one

37:36

case, you fruit cup. Dylan

37:41

and I had a, there was a Dylan and I, I don't

37:43

know if it was maybe because we're getting close to the

37:45

end of the season, but Dylan and I had

37:47

a couple. When I walk out of the

37:49

scene, we're out on the back

37:50

patio. Dylan is like turns around and he gives

37:52

me just a whip on the ass. Slapped

37:54

your ass. I remember. Really, really, really hard.

37:57

You made me pay for that later. I know on

37:59

the runway.

37:59

didn't get caught. You probably had to cut it. That was

38:02

a hard day. Are we, can we say that? Are

38:04

we in agreement? Does everybody remember that was a really hard day?

38:06

Even at a, Piven out a bit of a meltdown. Kanye

38:08

was late.

38:09

Like a lot was Kanye kept us sitting there for a long

38:11

time. It was Friday. We were all shot.

38:14

What I remember, I was really concerned about like

38:17

Sidney Pollock being there and

38:19

I just wanted to get him done, get him in and get

38:22

him out. Yeah. You know? And God,

38:24

I'm, I'm having weird things. He might've

38:26

been sick. I swear to God. I think he was. I think

38:28

he was. I think he already

38:32

was kind of diagnosed. Yeah.

38:34

We already knew it. Right. Terrible,

38:36

terrible, terrible. What else did he, what else? I mean, I

38:38

feel like we're leaving. Cause he acted.

38:41

I mean, Kubrick directed eyes wide shut. Sidney Pollock.

38:43

Yeah. What would be his, his big, I mean, out

38:45

of Africa was,

38:47

I think he won the Oscar for three

38:49

days in the condor. Now

38:52

you're making me look like I don't know anything about. Yeah.

38:57

But all in all, I mean, I dunno, the

38:59

episode to me, I dunno, I,

39:01

I feel like part of the production gets

39:04

in my head and it feels like we were

39:06

saving up.

39:07

Not that we ever saved money, but you

39:09

know, you do when you're going to blow it out

39:11

like that in can, you know, you

39:14

keep the belt slightly tighter for the previous,

39:17

the previous episode. Exactly. That was a probably

39:19

a super cheap episode. But I do want to bring up the,

39:22

the shot you gave me to the ribs. Yeah.

39:24

Yeah. You gave me a shot to the ribs. I

39:27

slapped you in the ass and you were like, all right, I'm

39:29

going to get you back. So that day and that

39:31

final day

39:33

you walked by and you threw like an elbow

39:35

or maybe a punch to the ribs, like a low

39:37

bone. Yeah. And I was

39:39

like, all right. All right. All

39:41

right. We got it. I put Dylan to a

39:43

knee it. Please spare me. Like

39:45

I was like, you're going to get it bro. Yeah. You're going

39:47

to get it when you're least expected.

39:50

I was like looking at Dan Addison. I think we got it. I

39:52

think we should move on. You literally said,

39:55

can you let this one slide? Man, can you

39:57

give me a pass? I'm going to give you a pass. Yeah.

39:59

a hall pass. Yeah. No, it was

40:02

a it was a it was a good episode. And then

40:04

and then it's just crazy to me. Like the only thing

40:06

that confuses me is the the on affairs

40:09

just kind of ends. Yeah, it just kind of yeah

40:11

never to be seen. And then what happens

40:14

to silo? I don't know. We're

40:17

gonna have to wait and find out. You're gonna have to wait and find

40:19

out. Lucas is there. Hey Lucas Lucas Allen

40:21

in the booth. Do you know why

40:23

the guys end up decide? Oh, oh, oh.

40:26

After Medin comes out.

40:28

Everybody gets everybody gets axed, right?

40:30

Oh,

40:31

because everybody hates because everybody hates that.

40:33

So silo goes away. That's gotta be what

40:36

it is. Should have put Mike Tyson in Medin. It

40:38

would have been a much better film. What is Mike Tyson doing

40:40

in Medin? I don't know. It's an Amazon show. I

40:42

don't know what it is. Somebody said it to me. I

40:44

posted it and it's called

40:47

Medin. It's on Amazon Prime and he's in

40:49

it. He's in it. Yeah. Is he acting like is he playing

40:51

Mike Tyson? Is he playing a character? I have no idea. We

40:54

have to look at that trailer. We definitely have to look at a trailer and

40:56

we haven't talked about the Ari storyline at all. Yeah. Let's talk

40:58

about the story. I mean, Piven's great

41:00

and then Perry Perry looks so hot.

41:04

Crazy. But you know, it's like the guilt trip

41:06

of like trying to get ditched the wife on a trip. What?

41:10

That's

41:10

my mom talking about. Yeah, exactly.

41:13

But you know, listen

41:15

this weekend in the behind, you know, when the Bahamas, you

41:18

know, all guys golf

41:20

trip. I was talking about your wife with you.

41:22

Of course. But it was not

41:24

going to be any other way. Not that I would have wanted that

41:26

three rounds of coffee. That's

41:28

what I mean. I think she was at as I literally we

41:31

played from morning till till

41:33

night. We played golf. But you know, I was never

41:35

I was never going without this is

41:37

like, you know, the old school thing that guys don't want to take

41:39

boys trips without

41:40

their wives. Were you like now this is like Taboo's

41:42

subject, but I thought it was a

41:45

very realistic portrayal of a couple that's been

41:47

married for 20 years where the agent

41:49

wants to go away with the movie star. He

41:51

doesn't want to cause any trouble, but you know what? He wants

41:53

to have a good time. And you

41:55

know, and I was very funny and having

41:58

Lloyd as his second wife, you know, too

42:00

was funny. And, and you know what I liked the Dylan,

42:02

you have to recite it because it was, it was Pippin's

42:05

line, but it's, it was a fucking funny

42:07

line. It was gross. The herpes line is very funny. You

42:09

know, like you'll learn after a few

42:11

years of marriage that a wife is like a herpes

42:13

sore. She comes and goes when she feels

42:15

like, you

42:18

know, but a Pippin was great. They

42:20

were all great and Rex was awesome.

42:22

And had you ever been bumped from a

42:25

private plane? I,

42:26

you know, I remember that happening.

42:28

Oh, that's the other thing. What'd you say? We could put the

42:30

wee little man in the compartment and the

42:32

up, up, and then above head

42:34

compartment. So the night before the script comes out,

42:36

I get a call

42:37

landline landline, heavy landline

42:39

days. Doug, what's up? He's like,

42:41

so the script's coming out tomorrow.

42:44

There's a line in it. Don't

42:46

give me a hard time. I think it's funny. I'm

42:48

like, Oh boy, here we go. A rare awarding

42:50

shop before the script game. But, um, nah,

42:53

man, it was good. I'm really sensitive about

42:55

the short lines. I think I thought that was a

42:57

really good one. That was it. Yeah. Like I don't know

43:00

what a little guy in the upper compartment. I don't understand

43:02

what I'm saying. Ari miscount five

43:04

people. I don't get it. I think he was doing like a quick,

43:07

he had to answer and to spit something out.

43:09

So he just said, he said the wrong thing, but marquee

43:11

jets is done. Right. And well, marquee

43:14

jets is long done, but wheels up was

43:16

the company. Cause we got

43:18

your boy Kenny Dictor in there. Kenny. Well,

43:20

he's not, he's not there. He's not with the

43:22

company. No,

43:23

he was, he was removed from the company. Like

43:25

a unceremoniously. Is that going to happen to me

43:27

here? It's very

43:30

positive. Again, this is very like the chimps.

43:32

There's someone in the waiting. And when they see

43:34

an opportunity, they club you over the head with a fig

43:36

leaf. No, but I mean the can aspect,

43:38

the wheels up aspect, uh, silo.

43:41

I mean, there was a lot of strange coincidences and

43:43

covering the sentence. It's pretty strange, really good, pretty

43:45

strange. And we have no idea what's happening and what's going

43:48

on. And what's funny, we watch the show and it's truly like

43:50

we're watching it for the first time. Yeah. But tell me

43:52

you left out

43:53

didn't do. I not remember Piven

43:55

throwing grapes at Kanye on

43:58

the, in the plane. I remember something like that. Yeah,

44:00

which I need to find out why

44:02

he was doing that which I'm glad he did maybe he was doing it

44:04

for the Jews He was chewing it up. He was chewing up

44:07

chewing up pretty good that episode

44:09

Kanye Pretty

44:12

good in that episode, but but you think the

44:14

grapes were saying that my

44:16

understanding of it was you know

44:18

Obviously Kanye is a rapper But like he's

44:20

not an actor and and he had a good

44:23

chunk of dialogue that he was having a hard time

44:25

Delivering so pivot through great. Yeah, he made

44:27

it all up Because he did it because he didn't

44:29

know his lines, right? So he what were

44:31

his lines by the way It's interesting that you remember that cuz I

44:34

that definitely was not written But I just remember telling

44:36

Piven like dude guys having a hard time you

44:38

like Piven was like doing bits I was like

44:40

is he hitting with a grape? I'm like Can't

44:48

imagine that's helping his Performance

44:51

along the way, you know not

44:53

to try to be a shrink but you can actually see that he's

44:55

kind of Mentally unbalanced

44:57

in the scene. You know what I mean? It's funny like You

45:01

see how he walks by Ari in the beginning

45:03

like

45:04

he's how dog is looking way too far

45:06

into it now I see the early layers

45:08

of the anti-semitism No,

45:11

no, I first walks in so I get the anti-semitism

45:13

bipolar. I mean, it's just clearly

45:15

yeah, I Overall

45:18

for this episode for myself. I will give myself

45:20

a Grade my performance at a 7.5

45:23

But I did remember one thing that I made a clear

45:25

decision on and all these years later

45:27

It's my favorite thing that I did when

45:29

I came in out of breath Like

45:33

I had been running through the parking lot I

45:36

remember after the first take you do you were like, what

45:38

are you doing? I ran from the car I'm

45:41

playing this scene out of breath. I'm

45:44

playing this scene out of breath That's

45:46

weird, man. That's weird. All right. Sure. I guess

45:48

theoretically. I'm like I'm late. I want to play it

45:51

like I'm running So I like it. I like it and

45:53

I come in how far do you think you I

45:55

was like running in place? Well,

45:57

whatever there's gonna no way to get around this not so

45:59

sounding snobby, but I'd flown out of that airport

46:02

a bunch of times. Ooh. And I know

46:04

roughly the running distance,

46:06

if you were to park and run. So

46:09

you really wanted to realistic. He ran in place how

46:11

many steps? Because I wasn't in the top of the seat. So now I

46:13

rate you as a 6.5 because of that run.

46:15

Right, no, but I got that. I'll give myself, I'm

46:17

gonna give myself a 0.5. Did you

46:20

really run in place? I was running in place

46:22

while we were rolling, and then when

46:25

I got queued by Gary Goldblum, whoever. Try doing a

46:27

couple pushups, maybe you get a little peck. Can

46:29

you imagine

46:29

him and your eye line running in place? No, I

46:32

was outside. I was in the parking lot, but

46:34

I just remember you going, what are you, I'm confused. I'm

46:37

late for the plane. I'm running for the plane

46:39

because I didn't want to miss the plane. All right, whatever.

46:41

And then in the next shot,

46:44

when I'm like sitting in the chair, I mean, I don't know,

46:46

I must've been really bored because I was really

46:48

thinking way hard about this. And then I seen, I'm

46:50

then like buckled in the chair. Like

46:53

in the background. I'm so exhausted. Yeah, like it was so

46:55

rough to get there. Oh, you really thought that went through.

46:58

Really? I should've done more of that over the course

47:00

of, I mean, it's hard to, you know, just I'm trying

47:02

to go more detailed into it now, but the timeline,

47:04

you just had to go to Anna's house and have a little conversation

47:07

with her. So

47:08

you think you got stuck at Anna's house for a

47:10

long, long time. Right. We had a drink. I,

47:13

we had a fight. She got fired. You cut the scene in

47:15

half. So it looks like I'm running around. Cause I went back

47:17

to the office. He didn't run into the scene.

47:19

Right. You know, did he go home

47:21

too?

47:22

You know, I think he went home as well. You

47:24

know, we just reminded me, you know, we got to get on the podcast. Tom.

47:27

Tom's great.

47:28

He steals C. Lloyd's, I

47:31

mean, come on, Rex Lee is the ultimate

47:33

scene stealer. To have somebody threatening

47:35

his title for stealing his scene.

47:38

With just a hat, by the way, in that scene. Tom is amazing.

47:40

You got to get Tom with anybody. I didn't know his name. Do you remember

47:42

his name? Ah, stupid question. Anybody?

47:45

Dave, I wouldn't expect you to know anything but your name. Where's

47:47

the CEO? The CEO? Is it, you guys got

47:49

to have a, oh, you got to have a sit down meetings with

47:52

the CEO. Talking about your value and what you

47:54

bring. I

47:58

would kill

47:58

to watch Dylan in an.

47:59

end of year review with the CEO.

48:02

Listen, if you're the new CEO, let me start right

48:04

out of the game. Where's my fucking money?

48:06

I'll tell you that right now. I am the fucking

48:09

game man. Come on in here and audition

48:11

for me. Oh, I want you to tell me why you're

48:13

the right guy for this job.

48:16

I want you to tell me so many weird things are happening

48:18

in action park media. Gary,

48:21

he, he, he brought documents to

48:23

be signed from Andrew Dies Clay. What's happening?

48:25

Well, it's just all joking aside.

48:28

We really are making a strong move here.

48:29

We're bringing in CEO. We're bringing in some people

48:32

to run this company the way that it's supposed to be run. Who's

48:34

going to do Dylan's job? Dylan.

48:37

We got it. By the way, the crazy thing is we have

48:39

the talent part of it covered. Now all we need

48:41

is somebody that knows how to run a business and we

48:43

should be good to go. So we got our

48:46

four years in. We got our guy. Yeah. But you

48:48

know, I'll tell you, I learned over these four

48:50

years, I learned a lot and it's better that it's happening

48:52

now. Because two years ago, I wasn't

48:54

ready to hand over the keys. You do. So the

48:57

pot is basically begging. I don't,

48:59

I don't have

48:59

any pot. Dave brought in some pot yesterday.

49:02

I took one hit of it. I have a question

49:04

for most. I started crying. I was so

49:06

emotional. I want to know that weed

49:08

is like fucking Dave. I need to know what

49:10

happened today. I went to walk boo out

49:13

to the parking lot. I opened the door and

49:15

left it open. You sort of followed me,

49:17

but you weren't really with me. You were kind of like, well,

49:19

he had to put money in the meter. Oh, my meter. Okay.

49:22

So why'd you lock the door? Because

49:23

I was worried another dog like

49:26

Trudy would run out. Okay. All right.

49:28

You know what? There's no content here. Good answer. Can we get some more

49:30

dogs in here? I mean, you guys and your dogs,

49:32

there's eight dogs in this office right now. That's

49:35

crazy. I saw two. Theo

49:37

Trudy. Brandon Quinn plays

49:40

Tom. What's his name, Luke? Brandon

49:43

Quinn. Brandon Quinn. Dave, he's

49:45

vying for your job. You're going to have a CEO.

49:47

You're in review. Dave, when's

49:50

your sit down with Anthony Tejaro? That's

49:52

what I want to know. New CEO of action

49:54

park media. I don't know. I've never met him. Oh,

49:57

it sounded aggressive by the way.

49:59

He better fucking come find me.

50:02

He said, who is this

50:04

Anthony guy? Anyway, CEO,

50:07

bro. I can't tell. I don't want to

50:09

get depressed because I actually have been very happy.

50:11

And no, I think so. But

50:14

the show, like it,

50:16

it's so good. This stuff on

50:18

Ramble on will be so, you love

50:21

yourself some action park gossip. It's

50:23

great. And I need to know what's happening. And we'll

50:26

talk about things we can't

50:28

talk about on things. Well, I'm

50:30

not going to bring it up, but the one thing I'll say,

50:32

Dylan, who's been very good at, at

50:34

understanding this, when you walk through the doors of action

50:37

park media, you're walking into content. So

50:39

if you do something dumb, if you do something

50:41

aggressive, like I, when I yelled at Connelly,

50:43

he posted it. It's just what happened.

50:46

We got

50:46

some things we didn't post.

50:49

Some things didn't make the cut. We actually, when

50:54

last week, when we took the week off, we read that a show,

50:57

we

50:58

teetered around with like, doing like outtakes

51:01

or like hot mics before. But

51:03

the whole point is that it's like, it's a hot mic. I

51:05

can't

51:06

air stuff that someone on someone

51:08

on the review page, someone on the review page was very

51:11

upset. They said, they said,

51:14

I think they said VTP they

51:16

call us. I guess you've made it when someone makes you VTP

51:18

victory, victory, victory, victory. But

51:20

they said,

51:22

they've lost it. And everyone I

51:24

know my age

51:26

or no, not everyone I know my age, everyone, my age

51:29

is over this podcast. Everyone this person knows

51:32

is over this podcast because we've repeated.

51:34

Now I want to say, what do we repeat it? Oh, we rebroadcast.

51:37

Yeah. By the way, television shows rebroadcast

51:39

all the time. I don't know that we've done.

51:41

No, I just want to say something crystal clear. We

51:44

really, so wait, wait, wait, hold on. Hold on. You

51:46

reran. He did a repeat episode. We did the Larry

51:50

Charles and the script in the Sherpa

51:53

episodes. And it was one of the early ones. Someone

51:55

is really upset about that. They said they're

51:56

done with us aside from my insufferable

51:59

voice. episode but what

52:01

I want to say is 50 or 160 in a row. I

52:03

need to say this. I need to say this. Okay.

52:07

Johnny Carson, Bill Maher. These

52:09

people make $50 million a year and

52:11

they work four months, five months

52:13

a year. We've been doing this three

52:16

years, four years,

52:18

maybe three weeks. We've missed, we've

52:20

missed maybe three weeks and,

52:23

and honestly, this is no if not the Kevin.

52:26

We don't really get paid. We don't get

52:28

paid. It's really hard to do everyone

52:34

a week for, for, you know, eventually we do it because

52:36

we like it. So to have this asshole

52:38

come on and say everyone that his

52:41

age should stop. I think you should stop reading the

52:44

page. What else am I going to do? I don't have

52:46

a job. It's just like, it's just asking

52:47

for trouble. It's like the only way I can get rid of the

52:49

baby. Cause I got the baby all day. If not, I got to go.

52:51

Sorry. I got, I got shit to do. I got

52:54

to comb through these reviews. Dave, what's up?

52:56

You're having a hard Dave's having a stroke. I

52:58

know a bonus episode. You never, you never

53:01

posted. Good talk. What was the

53:03

bonus? I have no idea what he's talking about. You

53:05

guys, the week after Gary Busey ride, you guys

53:07

did one with me for like 15 minutes. Never

53:09

made the air. Dave, you got

53:11

to put that on. Well, I

53:13

wonder why that didn't make the air. You'll have,

53:15

you'll be talking about that with CEO Anthony

53:17

soon. You'll be hearing about that episode. Yeah.

53:20

The victory of pod fan. But again,

53:23

53:39

I can't wait until the CEO comes in because Connelly look,

53:42

I enjoy your hot in here by the way.

53:44

Yes. I enjoy your quick shift podcast.

53:47

Okay. Sean Avery, but

53:49

53:51

53:54

So Emmanuel, you have superstar

53:57

Emmanuel, Emmanuel's evergreen.

53:59

Do you know how many DMS

54:02

I got? Where is the Emmanuel?

54:04

Emmanuel is evergreen. Is it on YouTube now? Yes.

54:06

All right. So everyone can see and she looks

54:09

great. I mean, she always does, but I'm just

54:11

saying she looked. Yeah, no, Emmanuel. And

54:13

it was it was before you got to the Bahamas. So

54:15

you were less tan. So she just looks golden.

54:17

Right. I look super white. Less tan with his Connolly.

54:20

Got a nice maple syrupy brown tan going

54:23

on. He doesn't really get he's like bacon.

54:25

He gets a little pink. You know, I put

54:27

a lot of block on out there. I mean,

54:29

I was

54:29

layered at on every time. I felt

54:32

like I was like a dead man walking

54:34

every everybody on the island was like,

54:36

Hey, Connolly, make sure you're throwing some sunblock.

54:38

Cover that guy up. Get him out of the sun. Hey,

54:41

cover that translucent boy chest

54:43

cheaters. Like, yo, Connolly here. An umbrella

54:46

over that guy. Cheaters like Connolly

54:48

sun tan lotion on me to

54:51

go into the pro shop and put him on my tab

54:54

bursting into flames on the what's happening

54:56

over there. The best is when Ari says to

54:59

I like it.

55:00

He's like, you

55:02

come back when you're tan or tall. Yeah,

55:05

it never bothered me. Didn't

55:08

bother me then. I don't know why you thought that.

55:10

Oh, I just thought it was

55:13

not necessary line. I don't remember any lines

55:15

like that on bowlers. Do you? I'm just asking. That's

55:18

all. Don't don't get into the message board. Stay out

55:20

of the message board. Stop reading the comments. Follow

55:23

all the pages. Good talk. Sorry.

55:25

I should have put the air conditioner on. It's fucking hot. Yeah,

55:28

I'm sorry. My new CEO is turning it

55:30

off. All the power. That's it. All right. All

55:32

right.

55:32

Take it apart.
