four, working for Disney. Oh
wow, yeah, wow, Yeah you

30
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:59.480

31
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:01.480
I was working on you know,
walking. Oh, you know,

32
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:06.920
it's like working for Disney. I
didn't know that. You didn't. How

33
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.000
did that keep going? Please?
Well I was. I probably was doing

34
00:02:10.039 --> 00:02:15.240
Disney's stuff before you were. Yeah. Yeah, so back in the seventies.

35
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:21.759
You win. Okay, not everybody
go oh it's crazy, that's wicked.

36
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:24.520
But yeah, my very first job
was Foxing the Hound. Well,

37
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:28.400
my first feature film was Foxing the
House. That's well, that's true.

38
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.639
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so I played the Hound. Wow.

39
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:34.960
Yeah, that is so freaking cool. How did I not know that?

40
00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:38.520
I don't know. Jeez, that's
crazy one of us did. That's

41
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:40.159
right. Well, you know,
at the end of the day, it's

42
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:44.520
part of the Disney family. But
it started with my sister. Oh so

43
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:47.360
here, here's some more for you, some more trivia. So my sister

44
00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:53.000
started the Disney connection. So when
I was three years old, I would

45
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:54.639
go with her to the set.
She was seven. She's three years older

46
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.639
than me, so I was three
and a half. She was You weren't

47
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:00.960
joking, boy? Yeah yeah,
but anyway, so yeah, so at

48
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:06.400
seven years old, she was in
Mickey Mouse Club mousekets here. Wow.

49
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:08.800
Yeah. So I used to go
with her to this set every day and

50
00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:12.719
then people would, you know,
hear my voice. And that's how I

51
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:16.039
got my first job. It was
a casting lady that was in the Burbank

52
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:21.520
offices while she was on this set
filming. You know, some ladies walking

53
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:23.639
by and she hears me, And
I guess when I was a kid,

54
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:25.919
you know, I always had this
rough voice, a little rasp or whatever.

55
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:30.039
Yeah, and so I sounded like
as a kid. I sounded like

56
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:35.439
an adult woman. So you still
do it? Really, it's awesome.

57
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:39.719
It's a very kind of you,
jim So. Yeah. No. But

58
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:43.639
anyway, I was, you know, I had this voice that I guess

59
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:46.000
was like you know, mom da, I'm like, you know, talking

60
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:50.599
to my mom about something, and
the lady said, you know, can

61
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:53.599
you please ask that lady it'll be
quiet. We're trying to shoot in here.

62
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.639
And then you know, and then
I say something else, really,

63
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:58.680
the lady needs to stop talking.
And they're coming in. They're like,

64
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:00.680
where's the lady? Oh, is
it you? And she's like, no,

65
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:03.319
no, no, I'm the mom. That's my son. You're here.

66
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:05.759
Yeah. You know, he's got
a loud voice, and I'll tell

67
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.599
him to shut up and then she's
like, no, that's amazing, Like

68
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:13.599
he's perfect. Like I've got to
bring him in for something if you let

69
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:16.360
me in. And that's kind of
how it started. So it started because

70
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:20.160
of my unique voice. And then
my first you know, feature film was

71
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:26.680
starring in at Disney Animated Classic.
Wow, no kidding, that's that's not

72
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:30.399
a bad first gig. Yeah,
madeor motion picture. But it took me

73
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:34.720
years. Okay, I mean my
first first gig was a McDonald's commercial.

74
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:38.800
Oh so at three and a half, the first thing that I shot was

75
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:44.240
a McDonald's commercial, and that commercial
ran for the next eight years, won

76
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.639
a Klio Award. It's a classic. It was the Christmas Gift Certificate commercial.

77
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:54.040
If you remember where the little kid
was walking down the stairs and then

78
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.680
he sees Santa Claus at the bottom
of the stairs with the gift certificate and

79
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:01.560
yeah, you remember, that's nuts. Yeah, the little boys like that

80
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:05.160
was me. Oh man, is
that crazy? Is he still smoocho?

81
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:11.360
Yeah? That is wonderful. Yeah, oh man. So we've been in

82
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:16.560
each other's lives all the time.
Yeah man, that's now. Let me

83
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:20.759
tell the story of how I met
you. Oh yes, I kind of

84
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:25.079
remember that one, I think,
so. Yeah, all right, So

85
00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:30.279
I met him at the Playboy Mansion
of all places, so not Disney,

86
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:36.160
of use. Yeah, and you
and you were you were up at the

87
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:41.519
crack of noon, as I recall. No, it was like I think

88
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.439
it was late, wasn't it.
That we were trying to get out of

89
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:48.199
there and yeah, yeah, we're
in the game room. The famous Game

90
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:51.480
Room, and I think I was
playing a game of pool, I believe,

91
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:56.120
and we were all standing around the
pool table and somebody said, this

92
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:59.120
is the guy who does Winny the
Pool. He's the voice of winning the

93
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:00.759
Pool. And I was like,
I got to meet him. And he

94
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:09.360
went I said give me some money. So I was like, oh,

95
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:11.959
I got to meet him. I
got to meet him, and so we

96
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.879
came over, we said hello,
and then here's the crazy part. So

97
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:20.519
my son, his name is Zen
and he was a little tiny baby and

98
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:26.920
he was so cute at that time. Now he's not. He's a man.

99
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.480
He's a man. He's a strong
man. Now I'd be very upset

100
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.959
if I called him anything, that's
right. But anyways, so he was

101
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:39.240
a little tiny baby and his favorite
thing, his favorite cartoon character, of

102
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:43.199
course, Winnie the Pooh, And
because of it, we used to call

103
00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:46.720
him Zenny the Pooh. That was
his nickname, Jenny Pooh. So we'd

104
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:48.839
be like, oh, Jenny Pooh, come here, you know, and

105
00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:53.560
he loved it, right, So
he loved Winnie the Pooh. He read

106
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:56.439
all the books, we you know, played the little tapes that go along

107
00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:58.839
with the book and all that kind
of stuff. So he was used to

108
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:00.959
hearing the voice, and I said, oh my god, I'd be great

109
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:04.000
if you could leave him like a
voicemail message, you know that I could

110
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:08.160
play him later. So he was
kind enough to take a moment, and

111
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:12.519
he left the most adorable little message. You should have seen his eye.

112
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:16.000
Oh wow, when I brought it
for him. He's his eyes got this

113
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:23.319
big. What you met Winnie the
Pooh? It was so cute. Oh

114
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:26.800
yeah, well at that age too, that's that's that's Poohville. He was

115
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:29.639
like three, Yeah, yeah,
perfect, that's perfect. Oh that's good.

116
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.079
Thanks for telling me that. Thank
you for doing taking the shie.

117
00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:38.480
Yeah. I've since been a real
weasel, so I'm they're never nice to

118
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:43.800
anybody. That's not I'm all stuck. You did it all good enough?

119
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.199
There you go? Oh man,
well that's like the Gooies. Yeah.

120
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:51.519
Hey, wait a minute, was
that a segue this before? Hey?

121
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:56.160
I might have been on an interview
here, Yeah, I wouldn't think so,

122
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:59.360
yeah you have you know, well, the Goodies. I think it

123
00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:03.680
was one of the cool movies.
I mean, everybody in it went from

124
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:07.759
being child star to movie star.
Isn't that crazy? I mean, I

125
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:13.480
mean, except for Jeff Cohen who
but he's like the biggest entertainment wlayer.

126
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:18.000
Now yeah, you know that works. Yeah, everybody's everybody from that film

127
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.279
ended up successful. Yeah yeah,
yeah, Kerry Green became a director,

128
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:24.720
Artha Plimpton went to Broadway and did
many, you know, huge movies and

129
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:30.879
TV series. After Sean Aston,
he sho thriving, still thriving. Yeah,

130
00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:33.440
I don't know what Josh Brolin is
doing. Yeah whatever, he just

131
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:37.720
kind of went right down into the
dumpster. Yeah, nothing there, too

132
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:39.559
bad. I mean, you know, I thought the kid had some so

133
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:43.879
much you know, potential. Yeah, I thought maybe something. You know,

134
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.159
he's kind of good looking. He's
got muscles and stuff, so you

135
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:50.559
should be like, yeah, you
would drinking or something. Yeah, it's

136
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:54.759
weird. H And then that that
Asian kid boy he just disappeared off the

137
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:58.799
map. Huh. Yeah, you
want a Academy award, Isn't he Isn't

138
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.480
he? I was gonna say,
talk about the same guy. No,

139
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:07.080
but he did disappear for like thirty
years to everybody. Well, but he's

140
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:09.759
comeback, Yeah, credible comeback.
He got such a great speech. Yeah,

141
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.840
it wasn't it beautiful? I was
crying. Yeah, that was so

142
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:18.399
inspiring, right, But but he
he didn't really disappear. For those of

143
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:20.440
us, you know, who love
him and know him, he was working

144
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:24.879
the whole time, but he was
working behind the scenes. So he was

145
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:31.200
in Hong Kong doing movies with Chat
Lee as a fight coordinator. People didn't

146
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:35.080
know this. Yeah, he was
a badass stunt coordinator, fight coordinator.

147
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:43.480
And he did actually worked on conspiracy
theory with Richard Donner or was at least

148
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:46.039
a weapon for well one of the
two, or maybe both. But he

149
00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:50.639
was doing you know a lot of
behind the scenes stuff for Dick Donner and

150
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:54.080
you know from the director from Gooney's. Oh yeah, he continued to do

151
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:58.799
all kinds of stuff. I mean, he was he was just very busy,

152
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.600
but always behind the scenes and really
had given up the idea of acting

153
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:07.039
altogether, which was crazy. And
then all of a sudden he gets this

154
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:09.799
script, you know, and it
was like, oh, I think maybe

155
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.159
I'll you know, consider some jobs
or whatever. Got a new agent,

156
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:15.960
and he was at my house when
he goes, yeah, they sent me

157
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:18.320
this script and you know, this
little independent movie. And I thought,

158
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:20.639
oh man, we don't know if
it'll ever be seen. We don't know

159
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:24.960
what's gonna happen with it, but
you know, I'm really hopeful it comes

160
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.919
out. And if it does,
you got to come support me. You

161
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.399
got comes upon me. Okay.
I was like, okay, yeah,

162
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.639
I loving me so sweet. Oh
but anyway, so so the movie came

163
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:35.559
out and he calls me up.
He's like, oh, we're gonna have

164
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:39.000
a We're gonna have a screening.
You gotta come. I was like,

165
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:41.600
okay. So they did this like
Q and ah went down to the screening

166
00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:46.159
and I was just like, my
job was on the floor. And when

167
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:50.879
I saw that the fanny pack sne
Have you seen the movie? Everything everywhere

168
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:52.240
all at once. Oh I don't
think I have. Oh you got to

169
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.440
see it? Oh wait, maybe
is a great Yeah it's it's yeah.

170
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:58.840
I think it's on Netflix right now. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it's

171
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.840
rotating. I mean it won like
ten Academy Awards. Yeah, it was

172
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:03.120
the biggest movie. I don't get
out much. I'm sorry to say.

173
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:05.799
That's all right. Well you can
watch it at home now. Yes.

174
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:09.679
Yeah, it's a new thing.
I've heard of that they've got these things

175
00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:15.919
called TVs. Yeah, I've heard
put stuff on them and then they send

176
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:20.039
you a check. That's right,
that's not that works for everybody, that

177
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:26.080
works for you. Well, that's
good stuff, man. Yes. Wow.

178
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:30.559
So do you do a lot of
cons nowadays too, because at least

179
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:33.720
a a lot. I don't do
a lot. I don't like to to

180
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:35.879
wear myself thin, you know,
I like. I think it's special.

181
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.360
The reason why I always do so
well, I think is because I just

182
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.320
don't go to a lot of them. I do maybe three or four a

183
00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:48.960
year generally. But I do spend
a lot of time seeing the fans because

184
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:50.840
I'm always touring. That's the new
thing. I mean. I put out

185
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:58.399
this giant box set last year,
which is a thirtieth anniversary of my first

186
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:01.720
album. My first album came out
in nineteen ninety three. I started recording

187
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.799
stuff for it in nineteen eighty six, oh man. And my first single

188
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:09.639
ever came out in nineteen eighty nine, which was a soundtrack for a film

189
00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:15.159
called Dream, A Little Dream.
So the very first material I put out

190
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:18.200
to the public was a vinyl single
in nineteen eighty nine, and then it

191
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.360
took another four years before we actually
got an album together and released it.

192
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:26.799
And even then it was like independent, you know. It wasn't in record

193
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:28.240
stores. It was like I was
handing it out to people like, hey,

194
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:31.279
you got to listen to a music
and if you don't like it,

195
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:33.399
you could use it as a frisbee. It's you know, a coaster or

196
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:39.759
something. Yeah. So yeah,
but anyway, so we just put out

197
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:43.799
this thirtieth anniversary which we took the
original two inch tapes, the big thick

198
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.000
tapes. Oh yeah, and we
had to bake them. I don't know

199
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.360
if you know about this, but
this is this is a thing. It's

200
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:54.759
a real thing. So you know, for those people who remember the dinosaurs,

201
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:58.080
and there was back in the dinosaur
days, there was Fred Flintstone and

202
00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:01.919
Wilma and they had these big two
inch tapes that we would use on these

203
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.399
big giant tape machines and when you
recorded, you actually had to cut the

204
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:11.759
tape together to actually splice stuff.
And seen it done many times, try

205
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:13.639
it, but right. Yeah,
So we would record all our stuff.

206
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:18.279
So we had this stuff in these
big Master tapes in my vault, been

207
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:22.120
sitting there for all these years.
And I was talking, do you know

208
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:26.960
Don Dawkin is Dowcin rocking with Dowkin
from the eighties? Oh oh, no,

209
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:33.879
oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
So don Dawcin. I run into

210
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:37.159
him. He's a really nice guy, super sweetheart, and he says,

211
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.480
oh, you know, I said, well, I got all these tapes.

212
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.039
I don't know what to do because
well, you know, we just

213
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:43.000
did a project, the Lost Tapes, and you know what you do is

214
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:46.600
you bake them in an oven.
I said, I've heard about that,

215
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:48.480
but is it really true? And
he says, yeah, I've got the

216
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:50.600
oven for it. And I said, okay, well if you could help,

217
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:54.440
that'd be amazing because I've got all
this stuff. And he said yeah.

218
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:56.960
So we took it. You know, there was like a specialist who

219
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:01.960
sat there and went through every inch
of the tape and they have to clean

220
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:05.600
off all the mold and they have
to do this whole chemical process. Then

221
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.000
they take it, they put it
in this oven and what happens is the

222
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:11.440
magnets fall off over time. So
when you're dealing with, you know,

223
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:15.919
live tape, because you know,
tape and film are a live thing.

224
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.759
I mean it's actually people don't know
this, but film is a moving being.

225
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:24.360
It's a living entity, living film. So yeah, so when we're

226
00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:28.200
dealing with tape, you know,
the magnets fall off, and it all

227
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.519
kind of falls apart and departiclizes.
So what you got to do is you

228
00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:37.759
put in this oven and the magnets
magically jump back into their place right where

229
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:41.399
they're supposed to be. And then
you take it and you run it through

230
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:43.639
the tape machine one time. First
of all, you have to have a

231
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:48.279
tape machine from nineteen twenty five.
But you run it through the tape machine

232
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.360
and then as you do it,
you get one pass. And if you

233
00:14:52.440 --> 00:15:00.440
capture everything precisely, then you can
individually process them digitally and signify them as

234
00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:05.399
individual tracks, and then you can
mix them as individual tracks and then into

235
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.720
a compilation of tracks. So it's
a digital transfer. It's the highest quality

236
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:13.360
you can get, and it sounds
amazingly beautiful. So wow, yes,

237
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:16.360
we did it. We got the
process done. I had Don Docin helped.

238
00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:18.960
We had all these songs, and
then all of a sudden I started

239
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:24.279
discovering there were these songs that I
had forgotten about that we'd never released.

240
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:26.639
Oh no way. So I was
like, well, this is amazing.

241
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:30.480
That was like a treasure treasure trove, treasure trove for you. Yeah,

242
00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:33.360
it was beautiful. So and then
I start going through, oh well,

243
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:35.320
better start looking through my old videos
and all that kind of stuff. And

244
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:37.200
the next thing, you know,
is like, oh yeah, I remember

245
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:41.440
this one from nineteen eighty six when
I was working on Lost Boys and I

246
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:43.919
made a music video in my dad's
apartment. We should probably release that at

247
00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:48.480
some point, right, yeah,
time, All this stuff that you know,

248
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:52.080
I'd kind of forgotten about fallen by
the way side, and I finally

249
00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:54.759
put it out for the fans.
And so this disc is if the Box

250
00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.919
I'm Sorry is a four disc set
with CDs, four CDs, two dv

251
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:03.759
We made a documentary about the process
of making the album. The process of

252
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:08.639
making the collection, we put together
a fifty page color magazine that looks like

253
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:12.240
a teen magazine from the eighties.
Oh wow. We got everybody who's been

254
00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.639
involved with my music from eighty six
to ninety three. Well everybody except lead

255
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:19.399
a Ford. She was just too
busy for us and she couldn't do it.

256
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:23.080
What are you going to do?
We love lead It, I'm just

257
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:30.840
giving her something anyway, but no. So we had Michael Damien and Mickey

258
00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:36.559
Thomas from Starship. You know,
wow, pipes, Oh my god.

259
00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:40.120
So he's came back. He had
done Dream a Little Dream, the first

260
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:44.519
movie that I did music for,
and he sang the song dream a Little

261
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:48.720
Dream, and I had to dance
down the bleachers, lip syncing as if

262
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:52.679
I was singing. But in those
days, I wasn't very strong of a

263
00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:56.080
singer, so I was still learning. I was, you know, very

264
00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:59.519
unsure. So I did record a
song with Michael Damien, who had the

265
00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:03.279
number one song on the soundtrack,
which was called rock on Yeah. And

266
00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:10.680
remember that one, hey kiss rock
and bo rock bo exactly you got it,

267
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:14.599
yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Wow. So Michael and I

268
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:17.759
recorded a song during that time called
Something in Your Eyes, which became my

269
00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:21.000
first single, but they didn't put
it on the soundtrack album. So it

270
00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:22.920
was like, Okay, I'm getting
it now. Now it's all kind of

271
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.119
coming together. This is an opportunity. I did like seven or eight film

272
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:30.279
soundtracks between eighty six and ninety three, but none of it ever came out

273
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:33.200
on records, you know, it
was just in the movie. So I

274
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:37.880
was like, here's my chance to
give the fans everything they've been screaming for,

275
00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:41.160
which is like all these songs from
the old movies and all these pictures

276
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:45.519
and videos and stuff from the process
of the making of it. We got

277
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.680
Mickey to come back and him and
I did a thirtieth anniversary song remake of

278
00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:53.920
Dream Little Dream, which is like
a killer rockin version, like we did

279
00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:57.799
like a really really like almost a
punk version of it. Yeah, and

280
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:00.559
I got Mickey to perform. I
produced it. So I got Mickey to

281
00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:03.799
like, I was like, you
might have to grab your you know what.

282
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:08.480
Yeah, yeah, yeah, get
it up there. But but yeah,

283
00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:11.680
sometimes you got to, you know, do what it takes to get

284
00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:15.920
that note. But but I was, you know, he's seventy years old,

285
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.519
he's seven years old, and he
sounded like he was twenty. I

286
00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:23.839
mean I was blown away. Sol
seventy seven, d oh, thank you.

287
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:27.000
I feel no no, no seven. I would talk about no no,

288
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:30.079
no, that's amazing. Yeah yeah, yeah, seventy years old and

289
00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:34.480
he's still and he sounds like he's
twenty. Wow. Yeah, it's beautiful.

290
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:38.400
So we got him to do that. We then did this documentary.

291
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:41.599
We did interviews with him, with
Michael Damien, with all the people who

292
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:45.400
were part of it, and we
put together this film which kind of explains

293
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:49.160
everything I just told you. Because
a lot of people don't realize that I

294
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:53.400
was actually singing before I was even
acting. Wow, yeah, yeah,

295
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:59.319
that's wow. Where in the womb? Because you've been so what happened was?

296
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:03.880
It's a good question because a lot
of people don't understand that when you're

297
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:08.640
three years old, you can't really
memorize your lines, you can't really read

298
00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:11.440
the script, you can't really know, you can't read the script work it

299
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:14.960
out with the other actors, right, So how do you how do you

300
00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:18.000
get the part when you're three years
old? Well, I think you have

301
00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:22.720
to be pretty cute, right exactly. So my mom figured out, well,

302
00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:26.519
he may not be able to read
or write, but we've got to

303
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:29.240
find a way that they're gonna,
you know, notice him, and he's

304
00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:32.680
gonna stand out from the rest.
And my dad was a singer and a

305
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:36.319
musician. My sister was in the
Mickey Mouse Club, singing and dancing every

306
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:38.559
day on stage at disney Land and
all that. So then I was like,

307
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:41.000
well, I like music. So
she said, okay, well here's

308
00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:44.960
what we're gonna do. We're gonna
stick you in a room with a record

309
00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:48.559
player and you're going to listen to
this record over and over and over until

310
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:51.519
you memorize every word of it.
Yeah, and then I want you to

311
00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:53.240
come out and sing it for me. And you know, once I did,

312
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:57.079
then she would take that. She
would put me into the rooms for

313
00:19:57.160 --> 00:20:00.799
the castings, and I would go
to and I would sing and they would

314
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:03.039
say, oh, look, how
cuteie is. You know it about the

315
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:06.720
same way, you know, happy
Birthday? You got it? I got

316
00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:07.960
it. And I was doing easy
songs like you know, put on a

317
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.319
happy face or or yeah yeah,
yeah, you know what was it?

318
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:18.640
Sunshine? Oh okay? And uh
and jung Food Junkie by Jim Grochi,

319
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:22.359
oh juf Ny. They love when
I did that one because I was like

320
00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:26.119

321
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:29.880

yeah yeah, oh you must have knocked

322
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:32.519
him out. Yeah. Well,
I got like one hundred commercials by the

323
00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:36.799
time I was eight. Yeah.
So but that's how I started. And

324
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:40.839
then and then back to Disney again. My first TV movie of the Week

325
00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:42.119
or TV special, whatever you want
to call it, when I was about

326
00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:47.480
five or six, was with Dick
Van Dyke and it was a musical and

327
00:20:47.519 --> 00:20:49.680
we did it was called how do
you like a child, and there was

328
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:52.880
lots of musical numbers, so I
had to sing and dance with the greatest

329
00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:56.200
of all time, you know,
Dick Van Dykes right off the bat.

330
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:03.119
So yeah, that'll do it.
Wow, that is astonishing. He played

331
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:07.720
my dad because I do the character
Pete, you know, that big old

332
00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:11.920
guy that's always messing with Mickey Bows. And we did a special it's got

333
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:15.720
to be maybe like ten years ago, and he came in and did a

334
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:18.640
cameo as Pete's dad. Oh cool, And I was thinking, yeah,

335
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:23.440
so Dick Van Dyke's my dad.
Okay, I can die happily. That's

336
00:21:23.480 --> 00:21:27.720
pretty Yeah. And the crazy thing
I think he's actually old enough to be

337
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:30.960
your dad. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Well he's in his nineties.

338
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.039
Oh yeah, he's like ninety six
and he's still going, I know,

339
00:21:34.519 --> 00:21:37.720
God, this lesson you know what. I saw him at one of

340
00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:41.240
these conventions about I'm saying about four
years ago, was right before the pandemic,

341
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:45.319
and we were in the elevator together. It was like, hey,

347
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:04.839

348
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:07.680
soft shoe right there in the elevator, right. He goes, you gotta

How cool is that? God bless
him. I love him so much,

353
00:22:21.720 --> 00:22:23.519
No kidding, well, I think
everybody does. He's like, yeah,

00:22:23.559 --> 00:22:27.559
everybody's at least favorite uncle. Yeah

355
00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:30.680
you know legend. I mean he's
like one of the last greats that we

356
00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:34.440
still Oh yeah, yeah, you're
right about that. And the performance he

357
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:37.880
did in the New Mary Poppins.
Did you see it? I haven't seen

358
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:41.799
that. I didn't see the movie, but I watched that. Just all

359
00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:45.440
you gotta do is YouTube watch his
scene, because wow, he's ninety one

360
00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:48.599
or ninety two and he gets up
on the table and he's dancing. I

361
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:52.799
mean, it's crazy. Wow.
It said Joliola Day with Mary Yeah,

362
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:59.000
yeah, yep, Wow, that's
nuts. Well you've got a few stories

363
00:22:59.000 --> 00:23:03.200
in you, h just a man, just used a few. I was

364
00:23:03.319 --> 00:23:07.440
raised, you know, in a
very terrible environment. But to get away

365
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:14.079
from that terrible environment, my two
escapes were going to Neverland and the Playboy

366
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:18.759
Man you know, rotating yes too, like who can say that? Wow,

367
00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:22.240
I'm pretty sure you're in a very
small club. Yeah, right,

368
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:25.119
very smart. I mean to go
to one of the places, I think

369
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:29.039
it's pretty rare. But to go
to both. Yeah, and it's not

370
00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:33.519
like they're next door to each other
physically or mentally or spiritual, right,

371
00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:37.920
exactly, two different realms, two
different realms. But I still went to

372
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:40.119
Yeah, I went to the Playboy
Manage in the first time when I was

373
00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:44.079
fifteen years old. Wow. Yeah, and you thought you died and went

374
00:23:44.119 --> 00:23:47.319
to heaven. You know what?
I didn't, because I was too young

375
00:23:47.359 --> 00:23:49.400
to even appreciate the fact that there
were beautiful women everywhere. I was more

376
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:56.519
excited about, like Richard Pryor being
there and Dudley actually, yeah, especially

377
00:23:56.599 --> 00:23:59.720
Richard Pryor. I got to meet
Richard, I got to meet Dudley Moore,

378
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:03.279
all the great you know, Richard
Pryor is the king of the world.

379
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:08.160
Oh, absolutely brilliant. Nobody there's
Richard Pryor, and then everybody else

380
00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:11.720
can fight for second place, right, I mean? And you know,

381
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:15.359
also I got to work with and
meet, speaking of comedy legends, the

382
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:22.240
great Milton Burle. Yeah, get
out. Yeah. What was that We

383
00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:26.200
did a show together. It was
in the early nineties. I think it

384
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:32.359
was called Burke's Law. Oh yeah, yeah, yea Jean Barry yeah yeah,

385
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:36.440
yeah yeah. And so we did
an episode where it was like all

386
00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:41.000
the old time comedians and I just
happened to be the nephew of the guy

387
00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:45.519
who hired the one guy and like
happened to be connected. But it was

388
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:51.920
Henny Youngman, it was Milton Burrell, it was Ed McMahon uh man,

389
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:56.400
don't remember who the other two were, but it was five giant legends.

390
00:24:56.599 --> 00:24:59.640
Yeah, and I just got to
be there like cracking jokes with them all

391
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:03.640
every It was just wow, now
there's a memory for you. Yeah.

392
00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:07.440
And then like a year or two
years later, I went to the comedy

393
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:10.799
store where I hung out all the
time because I was kind of raised also

394
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:15.079
at the comedy store that was my
club hangout, which you know was because

395
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.079
of Sam Kinnison. I became friends
with Sam Kennison. Pauli Shore, who's

396
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:22.119
here this weekend. Yeah, he
was like a brother to me, and

397
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:26.440
we were both little brothers to Sam. So we were all like a little

398
00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:29.720
family, a little click. And
I was there at the Comedy Store almost

399
00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:34.359
every night, and you know,
Eddie Murphy would be there, Richard Pryor

400
00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:38.039
and Face Clay, Jim Carrie,
like you know, all of them,

401
00:25:38.039 --> 00:25:41.799
they were all there. I mean, it was just the time. I

402
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:44.559
think he's still on the side of
yeah yeah, yeah, well I think

403
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:51.599
Jay was actually buying the car next
door. But yeah, that's true at

404
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:55.079
that Rolls Royce Steeler exactly putting it
on the roof or something like that.

405
00:25:55.559 --> 00:26:00.759
Jay's car is here today, but
yeah, I know. So anyway,

406
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:03.079
it was just, you know what
in a magical time. And I walk

407
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:07.279
in one night and there's Milton Burrel
on the stage and I was like,

408
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:11.039
I got to watch him do an
hour of comedy. I mean, who

409
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:15.519
can even say that, right,
Like that's alive right now, but yeah,

410
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:19.359
yeah, he he And he was
in the late nineties, I think,

411
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:22.680
but it was probably a year or
two before he died, and I'll

412
00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:27.039
never forget one of his most genius
lines. He said, Yeah, I'm

413
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:33.119
sorry if I smell, I just, I just I had Taco Bell today.

414
00:26:33.480 --> 00:26:37.240
I gotta be honest. I had
Taco Bell and I have so much

415
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:45.160
gas. Arabs are following me wherever
I go. And he was just like

416
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:48.279
witty on it, like you know, he's like ninety something wherever he was,

417
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:52.519
and and and people were, you
know, rasing him from the audience,

418
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.359
and he's just singing him down,
just singing like so quick, so

419
00:26:56.519 --> 00:26:59.720
fast. I was like, wow, Yeah, that's that's a talent right

420
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:03.759
there. Legend. Man, oh
man, that's too bad you don't have

421
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:08.799
any cool stories. I know,
Right's amazing. I've been blessed. I've

422
00:27:08.799 --> 00:27:14.680
gotten to meet every legend I've really
ever wanted to meet. There's nobody I

423
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:18.960
could think of. Well one person. There's one person that I missed that

424
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:22.599
I'm really sad I missed, which
was just what was a Jesus basically the

425
00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:29.799
same thing, John Lennon. That
was close. Wow, no kidding.

426
00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:33.519
And I'm sure you met the other
Beatles all three look at that. Yeah,

427
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:37.079
I knew I hated you. Okay, the closest I got. I

428
00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:41.400
used to play rock and roll in
New Orleans and when I was a kid.

429
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:47.720
And and we actually any of the
boats. Oh yeah, on the

00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:56.839
My band it was called Fusion,
and I was a singer, and

432
00:27:56.880 --> 00:28:00.839

it was the biggest boat on the on

433
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:04.039
the water. And uh. And

know, like you're right stuff like yeah,

435
00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:11.799
oh well no, no, no, it was rock and roll,

436
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:15.519
but it was you know, so
anyway, No, it was a rock

437
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:18.440
and roll band and uh. And
we made it to like opening act.

438
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:21.920
We opened for Leonard Skinner and then
they got famous and then they never hung

439
00:28:21.960 --> 00:28:25.440
around us any anymore. But we're
on the President. We're playing on this

440
00:28:25.480 --> 00:28:30.039
boat and we broke the record for
we had five thousand and two people on

441
00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:33.640
there. Wow, and and and
it was it was awesome. It was

442
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:36.960
like a three hour tour, but
not Gilligan's Island, you know. And

443
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.680
they would go back for yeah,
without the stranding. And we went back

444
00:28:41.720 --> 00:28:45.279
and we were so full of ourselves
and everything. Then BB King played the

445
00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:49.039
next week they got six thousand,
and we went. I really wanted to

446
00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:52.920
hold onto that record more than a
week to be beat out by BB King.

447
00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:59.640
I think that. But I'm okay
with I'm okay with it. Yeah,

448
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:02.039
And that exactly the way we looked
at So what do you play?

449
00:29:02.440 --> 00:29:04.799
Uh? Sing? Well, I
played drums. Oh you do drums too,

450
00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:08.680
I know, yeah, I know. I actually think I lost my

451
00:29:10.400 --> 00:29:14.400
We're looking around it like I just
happen to have a drums Yeah I do.

452
00:29:14.799 --> 00:29:18.160
Well, I had sticks. I
always walk around with sticks. Yeah,

453
00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:22.519
yeah, just to annoy my fellow. Yeah, just to just to

454
00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:26.640
piss people off. Yeah, me
too. Yeah, I can't help it.

455
00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:30.039
It's just always yeah, same here, same here. It's all the

456
00:29:30.039 --> 00:29:34.039
stuff used to get me kicked out
of class. I made exactly, making

457
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:37.240
all that noise. Yeah, the
nuns were not that crazy about me then.

458
00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:41.039
But afterwards, when I did a
little some of you for the school

459
00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:44.920
and then I was to you,
it was okay, yeah, yeah,

460
00:29:44.920 --> 00:29:45.640
it was fine. Well, see
I would have been like, give me

461
00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:48.400
that rule, let me show you
something else I could do with it.

462
00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:52.799
Yeah. Yeah, you know,
yeah, man, that's good stuff.

463
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:56.200
That's amazing. Well, I had
no idea that you had such a musical

464
00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:57.599
background. Yeah, that's so cool. Yeah, well, you know,

465
00:29:57.720 --> 00:30:02.079
I lucked out. I was very
fortunate. I'm I'm a fairly good mimic

466
00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:08.039
and I'm a half decent singer sotto
voice. Oh yeah yeah. And then

467
00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:11.799
if you do it badly, then
they think it's you, so that works

468
00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:15.119
out. But no, I had
a I've got like I don't know,

469
00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:21.759
lion King album. I think it
was seven times platinum, and I sing

470
00:30:21.799 --> 00:30:23.839
a song called be Prepared. Wow. Yeah, you're supposed to think it's

471
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:29.839
Jeremy Irons. Oh that was me. Wow, amazing. Yeah, and

472
00:30:30.359 --> 00:30:33.240
you made a great job because I
did think it was Jeremy. Well that

473
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:36.960
was the idea. Yeah yeah,
yeah, great imitation. Yeah. But

474
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:38.920
uh. And I was the lead
singer for the California Raisins. I don't

475
00:30:38.920 --> 00:30:42.279
know if you remember them, Yes, of course, who I bet you

476
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:45.839
want him, you know, and
I was I was still white. Hard

477
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.839
to believe, but yeah, how
did you pull that off? Yeah?

478
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:52.960
I don't know. That's something I
had to do with my parents, but

479
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.200
uh, but yeah it was.
It was a lot of fun. And

480
00:30:56.559 --> 00:31:03.920
what else Pocahontas. I'm trying to
picture my wall Hunchback now anyway, Lion

481
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:07.160
King two and yeah, so it's
it's a lot of fun. It's amazing.

482
00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:11.799
Yeah, you know, I would
imagine a lot of times. Yeah

483
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:15.720
yeah, Poo's got a lot of
a lot of songs, but they don't

484
00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:19.880
go quite as big as line.
I've always wanted to do singing animation.

485
00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:23.519
I would love to do more of
that. Actually, yeah, it's fun.

486
00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:26.720
I did one I'll put it a
good word for you. Well,

487
00:31:26.759 --> 00:31:33.079
thank you, sir, But no, I did one that was it was

488
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:38.279
for Warner Brothers animation. It was
called The Scarecrow and it was a good

489
00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:41.119
one actually, and I sang I
played the mouse. I played a field

490
00:31:41.200 --> 00:31:45.319
mouse that lived in his pocket.
Uh. And it was like there was

491
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.160
like three or four songs in that
one. So I got to do.

492
00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.599
You know, I love singing in
character. It's so much fun. Oh

493
00:31:52.920 --> 00:31:55.559
oh my god, I love it. I agree. And if you listen

494
00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:57.880
to my music, like on my
albums, no two songs sound the same.

495
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:02.319
There's always a different character that comes
out depending on what we're talking about,

496
00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:06.160
what the theme is or what you
know, sure the material, but

497
00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:08.799
the point is that there's always I
try to bring like a new voice,

498
00:32:08.839 --> 00:32:13.920
a new character, something new to
song, so it doesn't sound like the

499
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:16.000
same guy over and over and over
again. Wow, yeah, that's not

500
00:32:16.160 --> 00:32:20.039
bad. Well, you know,
I mean all the greats, right,

501
00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:24.279
the people that I look up to
the most vocally, Michael Jackson obviously I

502
00:32:24.319 --> 00:32:27.599
was going to ask you who are
your favorites? Both. Yeah, Michael

503
00:32:27.720 --> 00:32:30.079
is come on, because he can
get the highest high you can do.

504
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:34.519
It's got that growl and that you
know, yeah some meat to it.

505
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:37.160
And McCartney, I mean, to
me, McCartney has the greatest rock and

506
00:32:37.279 --> 00:32:42.319
roll voice in the history of rock
and roll because he gets that growl,

507
00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:45.119
get he can get, he can
get pretty right, and he can get

508
00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:50.000
long, pretty, you know,
lovely really Oh yeah, snow Bud,

509
00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:52.519
snow Bud. It's so yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Well there's the other

510
00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:58.839
one. Oh, I suppose you
could do Joe, you know, Oh,

511
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:00.640
I think you could. I think
we could go old day, we

512
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:02.839
could have a bit, we could
go all day. And one of my

513
00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:07.640
favorite is, that's not your grandfather. I've seen your grandfather. Your grandfather

514
00:33:07.759 --> 00:33:13.240
lives in your house. That was
That was George Harrison from Hard Day's Night.

515
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:16.720
I think right right, Yeah,
I remember that that's right, grandfather

516
00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:24.240
that told it was that little old
man. Then when then, right,

517
00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:29.480
hello, great, that's so good. I'd sit there and do conversations.

518
00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:31.240
There's all four of them. Oh
yeah, yeah, that's good. That's

519
00:33:31.240 --> 00:33:34.559
one of my things. That's why
when I was doing stand up for a

520
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:38.240
while before I got into live meeting. Of course you did, no,

521
00:33:38.279 --> 00:33:43.759
But I started when I was again
fourteen fifteen, uh doing you know,

522
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:49.720
Comedy Store and catch a Rising Star
in New York and like that. In

523
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:54.079
fact, my first mainstream headline show
in New York doing comedy. You're gonna

524
00:33:54.119 --> 00:33:59.920
love this one so nice. It
was for the Lost Boys premiere and I

525
00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:02.839
was out there doing press and then
I'd mentioned that I'd been at the Comedy

526
00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:06.640
Store and doing some stand up and
blah blah blah. But it was mostly

527
00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:08.960
just kind of jumping up with Sam
or doing bits of improv and you know,

528
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:12.239
maybe a little thing here and there. But it wasn't like, oh,

529
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:14.800
here's your spot, you know.
So the first time I had a

530
00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:21.000
real spot. And of course,
my publicist informs the media that I'm going

531
00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:23.480
to be doing this, so ABC
News that comes down to cover it,

532
00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:31.440
and I'm at Catching Rising Star and
they put me right between Dennis Miller and

533
00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:37.880
Rodney Dangerfield. Now that's not too
much pressure, is it? Perfect?

534
00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:40.559
Right? Exactly like I am the
new kid. Yeah yeah, yeah,

535
00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:47.039
right, everybody's looking at their watch. Yeah you got a joke. Yeah.

536
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:51.599
So that was fun. And I
think I had family there too,

537
00:34:51.639 --> 00:34:53.159
because the whole thing was just like
way too much pressure. It was way

538
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:55.719
too much. And Dennis was like, hey, great job, kid,

539
00:34:55.800 --> 00:34:59.159
Yeah, I got some jokes for
you if you want them, give me

540
00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:05.199
a car, gave me a cow, babe. Yeah yeah, all right,

541
00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:07.480
buddy. I do love Dnis Miller. I have to say you do.

542
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:10.960
Yeah, he's pretty sarcastic. I
just his comedy. It's comedy,

543
00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:16.239
funny personality. Oh well sorry,
buddy, Yeah, what are you gonna

544
00:35:16.239 --> 00:35:23.679
do? Not all charming? Yeah, I believe that said Rodney was was

545
00:35:23.840 --> 00:35:27.880
very funny, very good guy.
Yeah. So I was very honored be

546
00:35:28.400 --> 00:35:30.039
both geniuses, right, yeah.
I was very honored to be there,

547
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:34.360
but very nervous, as you can
imagine. Oh god, yes, yeah,

548
00:35:34.360 --> 00:35:37.360
that would do it. I remember
I met Rodney Dangerfield. He was

549
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:40.079
at an old place called B and
B Sound when he was doing a Rover

550
00:35:40.199 --> 00:35:45.239
Dangerfield. He decided he was gonna
do animation, all right, you know,

551
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:49.639
And I tell you, I you
and he went in and he and

552
00:35:49.639 --> 00:35:54.360
and the damnedest thing he they had
a riser for the stage to record,

553
00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:58.880
and why I don't know, but
he would go in and he would take

554
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:01.440
off all of his clothes, not
all of them. He'd leave his underground

555
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:07.039
and hang him up on a rack
there and then put on you the wife

556
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:13.960
beater, right yeah, Josh,
yeah. And he would he would he

557
00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:16.320
would put on his robe and he
goes, okay, let's do this all

558
00:36:16.440 --> 00:36:20.039
right, you know, and then
he would sit down and then he then

559
00:36:20.079 --> 00:36:22.559
he could record v oh yeah,
because he didn't have his he was in

560
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:27.519
his robe. I was thinking,
sure he was an odd duck. Yeah

561
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:30.880
yeah, yeah, yeah, wow, you know, and a poor guy.

562
00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:34.559
I took him like forever. I
think he was finally got famous when

563
00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:37.480
he's like fifty eight. Yeah,
I mean he was a trooper When I

564
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:40.880
was a little kid, I mean
I'm talking six years old, seven years

565
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:45.199
old. I remember, I was
such a big fan of Rodney Dangerfield.

566
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:50.480
I actually made an animated book because
I had this little book of like his

567
00:36:50.639 --> 00:36:53.480
jokes or something. So I made
this little animated book where I like would

568
00:36:53.559 --> 00:36:58.880
draw drawings of him making different faces
as he's doing different jokes, and then

569
00:36:58.920 --> 00:37:02.280
I would put the joke coming out
of his mouth. Yeah. So I

570
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:06.400
was a pretty huge fan of his
comedy very early. Wow, yeah you

571
00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:09.480
were. I loved comedy. So
anyways, I guess it was the point

572
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:14.000
of that story was when I did
the performance in those days, what my

573
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:16.960
my bit was is I didn't have
great jokes. I still don't have great

574
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:22.440
jokes. Thank you, You're welcome. But anyway, there was you know,

575
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:25.079
I would go back and forth between
voices, and so I would do

576
00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:30.000
this bit which kind of became my
famous bit. I guess if there was

577
00:37:30.039 --> 00:37:35.880
one was wash me as Walter Cronkite. This this dates it, but it

578
00:37:35.920 --> 00:37:42.920
was me as Walter Cronkite interviewing Ronald
Ronald Reagan, Muhammad Ali and Michael J.

579
00:37:43.119 --> 00:37:45.400
Fox. I think, you know, wow, so I would have

580
00:37:45.480 --> 00:37:51.199
these three very different Yeah, I
know they're very similar, but no,

581
00:37:51.320 --> 00:37:53.679
but that's the point, right,
is you want three different textures, completely

582
00:37:54.599 --> 00:37:59.519
personalities so far apart from each other, and then have like that that balance

583
00:37:59.519 --> 00:38:02.559
of the other right, right.
So that was the bit, and and

584
00:38:02.760 --> 00:38:07.039
it was fun and I you know, I've always and maybe it's probably because

585
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:09.360
I'm a bit crazy, and you
know, I, like you said,

586
00:38:09.400 --> 00:38:13.119
I've got all those voices going on
in my head all the time. So

587
00:38:13.599 --> 00:38:15.280
it's kind of how I hear it. You know, they're arguing or they're

588
00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:19.599
whatever, you know, So I
just do that, you know. Yeah,

589
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:22.599
wow, that's amazing. Yeah,
because I've got those same voices.

590
00:38:22.639 --> 00:38:25.119
I have the same similar problem.
Yeah, sometimes you just break into a

591
00:38:25.199 --> 00:38:28.920
voice and you're not trying to You're
just walking around, Hey, ma'am,

592
00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:30.440
how you doing? Go to sleep
every there? Yeah, you know or

593
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:32.519
whatever, you know, like,
yeah, what's that baby? Yeah,

594
00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:35.840
let's go a little you know what
I mean? You can't Oh yeah,

595
00:38:35.840 --> 00:38:37.800
he's there all the time. Like
Charles Fleischer, he never stops, right.

596
00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:40.480
I don't know if you know Charles, but like literally yeah, but

597
00:38:40.559 --> 00:38:44.760
he's always like he talks that.
He's like, yo, baby, what's

598
00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:46.000
going on? And you think he
like actually talks like that. He's like,

599
00:38:46.079 --> 00:38:49.239
no, I don't talk like that. I just do that sometimes.

600
00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:55.119
Yeah. Yeah, okaya, police, yeah, yeah, you and you

601
00:38:55.119 --> 00:39:00.519
do a great Roger right bit.
Yeah, but I was in your rabbit,

602
00:39:00.639 --> 00:39:02.400
Oh I was that was the first, that was first movie I was

603
00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:07.719
ever ever. No, I was. I'll tell you what I was.

604
00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:14.280
I was Bullet number two. Oh
there was. If you remember, I

605
00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:16.280
was sitting there waiting, look at
you, that's me. That's me.

606
00:39:16.760 --> 00:39:21.679
And you know what I liked.
I was right before it said bullet number

607
00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:25.360
two Jim Cummings singing blah blah blah
Frank Sinatra, and I went, I

608
00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:30.599
I've made it above Frank Sinatra,
right, you know. And I went

609
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:32.679
home and I called my folks.
I said, you got to go see

610
00:39:32.679 --> 00:39:38.119
this movie. Uh. He couldn't
have cared. I have no idea.

611
00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:43.920
Yeah, hey, listen like that. I got news for you, kid,

612
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:46.639
Yeah, you're gonna be below me
from now on. Yeah, happened.

613
00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:52.719
And again that's that. Who was
you know that famous Schecky Green story?

614
00:39:53.840 --> 00:39:57.400
Which one do you know that?
Yeah? Which one? Well,

615
00:39:57.920 --> 00:40:04.079
he opened for Frank and uh,
you got four minutes, kid, And

616
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:06.519
so he was out there, Oh
you got it, Frank, you got

617
00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:08.239
it, And he went and he
was crushing it, and four minutes rolled

618
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:12.760
around and he and he let it
go to like almost five. Oh wow.

619
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:19.639
Yeah see. And then next night
time Jilly Jully was was this guy

620
00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:23.159
ist him. I didn't. I
didn't either, but but you know,

621
00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:27.920
he used to tell the story.
And the next night he was really killing

622
00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:30.000
it. He went over five minutes, you know, and Frank gave him

623
00:40:30.280 --> 00:40:36.199
four. And so the third night
he did it and he went out the

624
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:38.840
backstage. He was just milking it
a little bit longer. Yeah, night,

625
00:40:39.119 --> 00:40:43.159
what can I get away with tonight? Exactly? And and they,

626
00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:46.159
well, he found out what he
could get away with. He walked out

627
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:50.800
of the stage door, getting heading
over to his car. A couple of

628
00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:53.960
guys jumping beat the ship out of
him, pardon my French. And then

629
00:40:54.039 --> 00:41:00.960
he's laying there the hell's going on? Cart lights comes rolling up, stops

630
00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:08.679
right here, the window rolls down
four minutes. Wow, And then that's

631
00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:14.719
the story and they reverse back down. I mean it's like, okay,

632
00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:19.960
I'd be like, I'm good,
bro, think I need to do this

633
00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:24.320
gig anymore? You know what I
mean? Like, yeah, so that's

634
00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:30.320
it could be apocryphal, as they
say, man, Frank, Frank,

635
00:41:30.840 --> 00:41:35.920
it's not the way to treat your
homies. Yeah, well I guess he

636
00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:38.559
took the first punch. Yeah,
well, there you go four minutes.

637
00:41:38.599 --> 00:41:42.239
Did he really? That's what I
heard he jumped out and took the first

638
00:41:42.280 --> 00:41:44.760
one. No he no, he
didn't know. I meant by going over

639
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:46.400
four minutes. Oh right, right, yeah, that's what are you gonna

640
00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:51.199
do? I mean, how dare
you? Yeah? Right? Oh,

641
00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:53.360
I know is you can't out if
that ever happened to me. You know,

642
00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:57.480
during a live performance, I got
off stage and you know, the

643
00:41:57.519 --> 00:41:59.840
guy I was opening for, it
was like, how dare you go?

644
00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:02.920
Yeah? Okay, buddy, I
think you're taking this a little seriously.

645
00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:07.039
Yeah yeah, but they were warmed
up. The audience was anyway, yeah,

646
00:42:07.079 --> 00:42:09.840
I guess so. Well not the
fourth night, but that's all right.

647
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:15.480
The fourth night he was singing like
Rocky, Yeah, that's pretty good.

648
00:42:17.719 --> 00:42:22.079
You know. You know, you
know all week I'm going anywhere.

649
00:42:22.360 --> 00:42:28.360
Okay. Well, basically that was
my character in The Lost Boys. It

650
00:42:28.519 --> 00:42:32.039
was just a rip off of Stalloon, Okay. I mean it wasn't a

651
00:42:32.079 --> 00:42:35.840
director off because I took a little
bit of stallone and a little bit of

652
00:42:35.920 --> 00:42:40.239
Chuck Norris and a little bit of
Bruce Lee. No, it was kidding,

653
00:42:40.320 --> 00:42:44.639
I mean it was I was literally
told by the director, you got

654
00:42:44.719 --> 00:42:47.719
to study these films and create a
kind of Uni guy, you know,

655
00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:52.719
take like three of these characters and
then mix them all together. Uh what

656
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:58.719
was the other one, Chuck Norris? Uh not really because squirts nigger.

657
00:42:58.960 --> 00:43:01.840
You know, I bid bo I'll
be back. Yeah that didn't really work,

658
00:43:01.960 --> 00:43:04.880
but it was, you know,
but the whole idea of the presence,

659
00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:08.079
the you know, tough guy macho. Yeah. Yeah, so you

660
00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:12.159
know, but it was it was
mostly still, you know, and it

661
00:43:12.320 --> 00:43:15.000
was like, hey, we've been
here all week, you know what I'm

662
00:43:15.000 --> 00:43:17.719
saying, We're gonna do this thing. So I go over to his house.

663
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:22.320
Uh still yeah wow, And uh, you know, I didn't know

664
00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:25.559
if he knew or if he saw
it or anything. But I walk in

665
00:43:25.639 --> 00:43:30.679
and he's got this giant statue of
Rocky. Hard to believe, I know,

666
00:43:30.800 --> 00:43:34.360
imagine that because he's such a humble
guy. Yeah, I was thinking

667
00:43:34.639 --> 00:43:38.800
he's known for his humility. Yeah, I got a great slow I gotta

668
00:43:38.840 --> 00:43:42.440
tell you this story right now.
You got me started on stallone. Oh,

669
00:43:42.519 --> 00:43:45.960
here we go. Okay, it's
a funny one. My god,

670
00:43:46.199 --> 00:43:50.400
I've never told this publicly, so
this is for you. Here you go.

671
00:43:51.000 --> 00:43:54.280
Uh and stallone will probably laugh actually, but you know, yeah,

672
00:43:54.719 --> 00:44:00.679
otherwise I have a knuckle sandwich but
so I go to his house. My

673
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:04.639
friend Brian James brought me there.
He's no longer with us, Rest in

674
00:44:04.719 --> 00:44:07.599
peace. Brian was a great character
actor. I don't know if you know

675
00:44:07.679 --> 00:44:13.519
his work, but he was in
a Blade Runner and Tango and Cash Oh

676
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:16.400
yeah, forty eight hours and everything. Yeah, I know you're talking about

677
00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:21.079
so anyway, so he brings me
over. Yeah, and you know,

678
00:44:21.239 --> 00:44:23.519
Staaloone's not there at first. We
walk in, we see the statue,

679
00:44:23.719 --> 00:44:27.159
We kind of come into the it's
in Malibu. We come in, there's

680
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:30.199
this beautiful kitchen. We're just kind
of looking around the house, like really

681
00:44:30.280 --> 00:44:32.119
nice. Where's Sly at? You
know, Oh, he'll be down in

682
00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:36.440
a minute. He's with his messouse
upstairs. He's coming down. You know,

683
00:44:36.599 --> 00:44:38.800
okay, great, we'll wait here. And a few minutes later,

684
00:44:39.039 --> 00:44:43.280
you know, Sly appears at the
top of the stairs. He's got this

685
00:44:43.480 --> 00:44:45.960
white robe on. He's got this
little Asian lady and she's in like a

686
00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:52.519
little martial arts type outfit and she's
the you know, the Vietnamese messuse or

687
00:44:52.599 --> 00:44:55.719
whatever. And so you know,
he's like, oh, hey, hey,

688
00:44:55.840 --> 00:45:00.079
how you doing days for call me? I is getting a little health

689
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:02.679
going. You know, like,
oh, yeah, no problem, thanks

690
00:45:02.679 --> 00:45:06.320
for having us. We appreciate it. You know, I love your statue.

691
00:45:06.320 --> 00:45:07.480
It's really nice. Oh yeah you
like that? Yeah? Yeah,

692
00:45:08.039 --> 00:45:13.320
hey, were you You did me
right? I was like, I haven't

693
00:45:13.360 --> 00:45:15.320
done you, no, sir,
no, no. I mean like,

694
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:17.719
you know in the movie, you
know you did a character right, yes,

695
00:45:17.800 --> 00:45:21.480
yes, yes, yeah that wasn't
me, that was Barbie Benn And

696
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:25.960
I think, yeah yeah, but
I was like, oh well yeah,

697
00:45:27.039 --> 00:45:29.960
yeah, well I did. I
did. Actually I didn't know if you

698
00:45:30.119 --> 00:45:30.920
were aware of that. He's like, hey, it was pretty good.

699
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:35.079
It was pretty good. You know. I was like thanks. Uh so.

700
00:45:36.280 --> 00:45:38.920
So he then sits down in this
director's chair. This is all true,

701
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:43.639
sits down in this director's chair,
and then the little Asian lady goes

702
00:45:43.679 --> 00:45:45.960
over to his kitchen counter and she
takes some lemons and she starts slicing these

703
00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:52.320
lemons, and he's like this.
You know, you're not gonna believe this,

704
00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:58.079
but it's great. You love this
new Chinese ancient medicine type thing.

705
00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:02.440
But you know, I like it
was the new ancient. It's not comfortable.

706
00:46:02.519 --> 00:46:06.079
It's not comfortable. You're gonna have
to wait for a minute. I

707
00:46:06.119 --> 00:46:07.480
gotta do this. You know,
We're like, okay, whatever, you

708
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:10.239
know, we'll sit here and wait. So he like leans his head back

709
00:46:10.280 --> 00:46:15.599
in this director's chair, and the
woman takes the two slices of the cut

710
00:46:15.719 --> 00:46:20.480
lemon that's split in half, and
she starts squeezing them into his eyeballs,

711
00:46:21.800 --> 00:46:29.000
to his eyeballs, eyeballs. Lemons
was his nose busy erectly into his eyeballs,

712
00:46:29.840 --> 00:46:32.000
and like, I'm just sitting there
in horror. I'm in shock.

713
00:46:32.079 --> 00:46:36.800
I'm like, who the hell does
he really is? Rambo? Oh my

714
00:46:37.079 --> 00:46:39.559
god? Yeah, yeah, no, what kind of an iron man comes

715
00:46:39.679 --> 00:46:45.679
downstairs and puts Lemons in his eyeballs? So, you know, he's just

716
00:46:45.960 --> 00:46:50.480
it was like cheers, yeah,
God, You're like god, you know,

717
00:46:51.000 --> 00:46:54.800
and I'm like, whoa, you're
kidding and so and so he finishes

718
00:46:54.880 --> 00:46:58.280
and then we just you know,
have normal rest of the day. And

719
00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:01.039
I said, what was that about. It's a great technique. You know,

720
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:05.639
I learned about it because you know, ever since I've been you know,

721
00:47:05.800 --> 00:47:07.400
working out and doing these movies.
You know, I got a little

722
00:47:07.440 --> 00:47:10.079
tough all the time. You know, the eyes get bloodshy, you know.

723
00:47:10.679 --> 00:47:15.280
So what it does, ironically,
is it clears out the eyeballs,

724
00:47:15.360 --> 00:47:20.079
you know, so it takes away
that that that yellow mucisi stuff, you

725
00:47:20.159 --> 00:47:22.280
know, it makes it nice and
clear. Oh that's good. Yeah.

726
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:24.639
So I was like, oh,
okay, well that's cool. I understand.

727
00:47:24.679 --> 00:47:29.440
I mean, no pain, no
gain, you know. So that

728
00:47:29.599 --> 00:47:30.400
was it, and then you know, we had our nice time and we

729
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:37.079
left. Thirty years later, I'm
at your Seppie Franco salon in Beverly Hills

730
00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:40.400
and justet these good friends with him
and Schwartz. Yeah, and you know,

731
00:47:40.440 --> 00:47:45.559
everybody goes there and I'm at the
counter and I feel a tap on

732
00:47:45.599 --> 00:47:49.119
the back of my joy and here's
the voice, Hey, old Corey,

733
00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:52.960
are you doing. I'm like,
oh, hey, sly that's going on.

734
00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:55.760
He's like, hey, let me
tell you. It's really good to

735
00:47:55.800 --> 00:47:59.039
see you. Man. I'm glad
you're doing all right. You look great.

736
00:47:59.239 --> 00:48:00.079
I don't know what you're doing.
I don't know what your secret is.

737
00:48:00.119 --> 00:48:02.440
Be look great. I was like, thank you, I appreciate it.

738
00:48:02.920 --> 00:48:07.079
You look great too. Maybe it's
from the lemons that you were squeezing

739
00:48:07.159 --> 00:48:10.519
in your eyes the last time I
saw you. And he goes, oh,

740
00:48:10.599 --> 00:48:15.320
you know what a funny story about
that. I said, really,

741
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:19.920
Yeah, I said, what is
that? He goes you won't believe it,

742
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:27.880
but uh, it turns out it
wasn't true. I'm like, what,

743
00:48:29.760 --> 00:48:32.280
it didn't work at all? Didn't
at all? It didn't work at

744
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:38.719
all. Good way to find that
out, Good way to find that out.

745
00:48:38.840 --> 00:48:42.920
Yeah, but at least I don't
have glaucoma right up by glackcoma.

746
00:48:43.239 --> 00:48:46.360
It could have been worse. Wow, it didn't work. Still kidding,

747
00:48:46.559 --> 00:48:50.320
real like you were in any danger, Like you've been doing it all along,

748
00:48:50.519 --> 00:48:53.519
right now, you're gonna tell me. Yeah, after all those lemons

749
00:48:53.719 --> 00:48:58.159
put in my eyes, I went, I went through a lemon grove right

750
00:48:58.239 --> 00:49:01.039
exactly. I started growing him in
my backyard just so I could be more

751
00:49:01.199 --> 00:49:07.599
like you. Oh my god,
how long did that take? You know

752
00:49:07.639 --> 00:49:12.599
what I mean? Yeah? That's
knucking fats oh man. So so what's

753
00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:15.760
next for you? Well, we're
going on tour again. Yeah, we're

754
00:49:16.119 --> 00:49:20.239
actually heading out in September. We're
going to be all over the country and

755
00:49:20.440 --> 00:49:24.960
then on my first US World tour, very exciting, and then I mean,

756
00:49:25.000 --> 00:49:29.280
I'm sorry, first world tour after
the US tour, which is very

757
00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:34.239
exciting. I've done like ten twelve
tours of the US through my lifetime.

758
00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:37.760
But this will be my first ever
international tour. I've never actually done a

759
00:49:37.920 --> 00:49:42.960
full tour outside of the US.
Wow. So we're going to hit like

760
00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:46.280
England, We're gonna hit the UK, We're gonna hit Europe, We're gonna

761
00:49:46.360 --> 00:49:53.760
hit Asia, Australia, Canada.
So Earth rightly coming to an earth near

762
00:49:53.840 --> 00:49:57.679
you in America. You know that's
the idea. He's coming to an earth

763
00:49:57.760 --> 00:50:00.480
near you. That's pretty good.
Nice. Finally, oh man, he's

764
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:09.000
landing running underneath oh man. But
anyway, congratulations, exciting. And then

765
00:50:09.039 --> 00:50:14.480
the other really exciting thing is that
we just announced the release of my very

766
00:50:14.599 --> 00:50:19.840
own Funko pop. You know,
funkos. I'm sure that's probably signed a

767
00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:22.000
billion of them, right, Oh
excuse me. Yes, But that's when

768
00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:24.880
you know you made it because I
have a bunch of Funko pops. But

769
00:50:25.000 --> 00:50:29.400
it's a Pooh and Tigger and Dark
Wing Duck and task as do I.

770
00:50:30.079 --> 00:50:36.159
You have your own fop of you
Ger and Mouth and Donna Tello and I'm

771
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:39.079
sure Fox, Yeah, sure,
Yes, it's a big honor. Wow.

772
00:50:39.159 --> 00:50:45.199
Making Corey Fellman exclusive Funko pop is
a beautiful so nice. I love

773
00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:50.840
them. First of all, the
owners of the company, greatest people in

774
00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:52.800
the world. Oh that's cool.
Yeah. Mike, the guy who actually

775
00:50:52.920 --> 00:50:58.519
created it. They call him fun
Maker Mike. Amazing guy. He's so

776
00:50:58.800 --> 00:51:01.599
brilliant, so great. He's like
Lily Wonka. He's like, oh wow,

777
00:51:01.920 --> 00:51:07.400
that's why he's just he's got this
factor song for himself. He probably

778
00:51:07.480 --> 00:51:12.599
and he's a musician. Yeah,
well, big surprise, So there you

779
00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:16.760
go. Yeah, that's right.
Yeah. So anyway, he started making

780
00:51:16.800 --> 00:51:21.119
these things in his garage. He's
good friends with the guy that I'm sure

781
00:51:21.159 --> 00:51:23.800
you know by the name of Bob
Gerr. Yes, he was one of

782
00:51:23.920 --> 00:51:30.679
the original imagineers, no kidd that
Walt personally hired. And we got to

783
00:51:30.760 --> 00:51:37.599
have dinner with grand old man,
right, yes, and he's the only

784
00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:40.719
one left and we got to have
dinner with him at the original Bob's Big

785
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:46.079
Boy and right well yeah, and
he was telling us all the stories about

786
00:51:46.119 --> 00:51:52.119
how when they made Bambi, they
brought all these animals into the office and

787
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:54.639
they would sit there and like,
study the animals. That's what Walt said,

788
00:51:54.679 --> 00:51:59.199
I want you to study these animals, learn their mannerisms, learn how

789
00:51:59.280 --> 00:52:01.639
they react. Yeah, you know, just watch them all day, every

790
00:52:01.679 --> 00:52:05.199
day and that was their job.
They would put a deer in the middle

791
00:52:05.239 --> 00:52:07.800
of the floor and they would just
sit there and watch them. That's amazing,

792
00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:10.559
you know they you know I from
working on Lion King, I knew

793
00:52:10.559 --> 00:52:16.119
a lot of the illustrators and uh. And they went to Africa. Yeah,

794
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:21.679
they went to Africa hung around and
if you see poomba, Poomba is

795
00:52:21.719 --> 00:52:23.960
the one that cracks you up because
as it happened, I went to Africa,

796
00:52:24.679 --> 00:52:30.000
like I don't know, I spent
a month in Africa, maybe the

797
00:52:30.159 --> 00:52:36.239
year before we made Lion King.
And and they they captured the thing that

798
00:52:36.360 --> 00:52:42.039
they really captured best was the war
hog and the macaw, you know who.

799
00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:45.360
The way they flew and the way
they ran with their butts up in

800
00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:46.400
the air and their tails open.
There I go, oh my god,

801
00:52:46.480 --> 00:52:49.599
oh my god, I saw a
lion King and they go, they really

802
00:52:49.679 --> 00:52:53.440
do do that, and they really
exactly know And it was the magic of

803
00:52:53.519 --> 00:52:57.880
Disney. And literally is the magic
of Disney. Yeah, to pay attention

804
00:52:57.960 --> 00:53:00.280
to those kinds of details. It
is so literally is I love it?

805
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:05.079
Like man, I mean Fox and
the Hound. I'm in the movie right,

806
00:53:05.760 --> 00:53:09.079
I've seen it twenty times. I
still cry every time. Yeah,

807
00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:14.800
and that's crazy. I don't cry
when I watch stand by Me. Yeah,

808
00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:16.199
yeah, you know what I mean. I don't cry when I watch

809
00:53:16.280 --> 00:53:20.920
my other movies. But I watched
the watch that Wow, And even though

810
00:53:20.960 --> 00:53:24.519
I know what's gonna happen, I
still I get that with Christopher Robin,

811
00:53:24.920 --> 00:53:29.840
yeah you know. And and it's
but it's not And it's just because it's

812
00:53:29.880 --> 00:53:32.519
so sweet and so sentimental. Yeah. You know, I don't know anybody

813
00:53:32.639 --> 00:53:36.920
that gets through that movie without a
tear in their eye. Right, So

814
00:53:37.159 --> 00:53:40.840
the color purple, right, yeah, yeah, you can't watch that movie

815
00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:45.559
and not cry. Yeah. Oh, just so deep and riveting and like

816
00:53:45.719 --> 00:53:49.599
power great. Yeah, well you
know I love Down Yeah, I love

817
00:53:49.719 --> 00:53:52.639
I love I love any movie that
gives you that feeling of like, even

818
00:53:52.679 --> 00:53:55.599
if it's a painful feeling, but
it's that connection. You know, you

819
00:53:55.719 --> 00:53:59.559
get that inspiration from it. It
moves you. I mean, that's that's

820
00:53:59.599 --> 00:54:02.519
the whole secret to art. Right, Yet is getting some kind of reaction.

821
00:54:04.280 --> 00:54:07.480
Yeah, so whether it's positive or
negative, you know, people will

822
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:08.679
say, oh, well, you
know, you got too much crap for

823
00:54:08.800 --> 00:54:12.079
this performance, or you got too
much of it, and it's like no,

824
00:54:12.239 --> 00:54:15.920
as long as it's about the art. Art is objective, so you

825
00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:19.000
know the way I look at it, Whether you love my art or whether

826
00:54:19.039 --> 00:54:22.119
you hate my art. At least
if you hate it, I'm still getting

827
00:54:22.119 --> 00:54:24.719
a reaction, you know, because
the worst thing that you could do is

828
00:54:24.760 --> 00:54:29.360
put something out and have people not
notice or not care. I'd much rather

829
00:54:29.480 --> 00:54:32.000
that they, you know, are
adamantly against it or adamantly for it.

830
00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:36.599
But they're Yeah, so they've listened
to it five times to say how much

831
00:54:36.679 --> 00:54:38.639
they hate you. Yes, that's
right. Yeah, nothing wrong with that.

832
00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:45.599
Keep buying tickets exactly. That keeps
us enough, It keeps us employed

833
00:54:46.000 --> 00:54:50.039
so you don't have to go out
and you know, bad groceries or whatever.

834
00:54:50.119 --> 00:54:52.440
Yeah, no kidding. Yeah,
that's beautiful man. Well, thank
