WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:03.960 I need to preface this conversation by saying I was 2 00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:06.280 I never got Pee Peewee. I never got it. I 3 00:00:06.280 --> 00:00:08.560 don't hate him, I don't. I'm not a hater on him. 4 00:00:08.560 --> 00:00:10.960 I just never got into it and wasn't really my thing. 5 00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:15.039 I do appreciate the character and what he you know, 6 00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:18.239 what he built out of his mind into a character. 7 00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:22.160 But now there's a Pee Wee Herman documentary, Pee Myself? 8 00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:24.359 Is that what it's called? Pee as Himself? 9 00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:28.000 Yeah, and it's streaming and you guys both watched it 10 00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:28.760 over the weekend. 11 00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:35.039 What do you think, jb uh, It's it's really impressive. 12 00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:39.439 First of all, you I think one of the first 13 00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:43.039 takeaways is you realize what a genius artist he was. 14 00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:43.479 Yeah. 15 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:45.880 You don't think of it that way. You just think 16 00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:48.240 of it as a guy who's goofing and stumbled into this. 17 00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:49.000 But he was. 18 00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:54.399 He was a true artist, and you know, and he 19 00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:56.960 was part of Groundlings, which is a lot about creating 20 00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:03.240 characters grounds the Chicago La La Improv troup, and that's 21 00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:05.799 how he got I always wondered how he got connected 22 00:01:05.799 --> 00:01:09.079 with Phil Hartman. We're talking about that because they were 23 00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:12.879 in Groundlings together and he did a lot of different characters, 24 00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.959 and then that was the one that took off. He's 25 00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:21.239 so likable, I said to my wife yesterday. I was like, man, 26 00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:23.079 I would have really liked to have been friends with 27 00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:28.319 Paul Rubins. But he was such a he was a 28 00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:32.400 very introverted artist, Like we didn't know anything about him personally, 29 00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:37.120 really because he intentionally kept it that way in it also, 30 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:38.840 And I'd love your thoughts on that trich. It was 31 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:42.599 kind of it was very sad. His existence was was 32 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:45.640 quite sad. And then the accusations, well there's the incident 33 00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:51.159 in the theater and the accusations of child pornography, which 34 00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:52.079 were not true. 35 00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:53.079 Right at all. 36 00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:59.840 He was a he was an avid collector of many, many, many, 37 00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:05.239 many random things really many like warehouses full of them. 38 00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:08.400 And one of those things just happened to be like 39 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:11.120 male erotica type stuff. 40 00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:11.840 Magazines. 41 00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:14.439 Yeah, and they were going through all this stuff and 42 00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:17.919 it they made it. It's just the public eye reads 43 00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:20.840 the headlines. They don't know the rest of the story. 44 00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:22.840 And so everyone kind of wrote him off as a 45 00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:25.840 pedophile to a certain degree, right, Well, the character you 46 00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:31.360 played didn't help, Yeah, but people loved him. I'm one 47 00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:33.759 of those people that just loved him, you know, for 48 00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:37.759 what he had created. And even after all of that, 49 00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:40.479 you know, there's some acceptance he could see that people 50 00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:44.400 loved him. I don't know, it's just the whole thing's 51 00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.039 just it's just a bit of a tragedy. It's just 52 00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:47.919 really really sad. 53 00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:49.719 I have a question and you guys, I want to 54 00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:52.039 hear what you thought about the doctor Tutors. But he 55 00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:56.159 is he one of those guys that found himself living 56 00:02:56.240 --> 00:02:59.360 the character, like because he would do the talk Circuit 57 00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:02.319 as p as pee Wee, he never did it as 58 00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:05.800 Paul Rubens. So did he find himself it was it 59 00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:09.360 difficult for him to detach from pee Wee Herman and 60 00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:12.479 be Paul Rubens? Or was he just constantly live in 61 00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:16.080 the pee Wee characters. That's a good question. I let 62 00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:17.120 you answer that, Trician. 63 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:22.840 Yeah, So basically what happened is he had he created 64 00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:27.039 He was so creative. He created hundreds of different characters. 65 00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:29.199 When he was in the Groundlings, he would come up 66 00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.520 with all these characters. He had a chance to go 67 00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:35.360 in audition for SNL and he picked a few of 68 00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:38.199 his characters and they didn't hit. He didn't get the job. 69 00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:39.960 Somebody else got the job. Who is it who got 70 00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:44.479 the job? The loud little guy Gilbert Godfrey got the 71 00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:45.199 job instead. 72 00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:46.960 Paul Rubins would have been better. 73 00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:50.960 Yeah, I think so too, But at that time, his 74 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:54.120 pee Wee character was getting some traction. So after he 75 00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:57.599 didn't get SNL, he scrapped all of the other characters 76 00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:01.439 that he created and focused only on pee Wee and 77 00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:04.520 he only did interviews as pee Wee because it was 78 00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:07.520 a way to also keep his anonymity. And the first 79 00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:10.960 time the public ever saw Paul Rubins not as pee 80 00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:14.960 Wee Herman was his mug shot for when he got he. 81 00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:21.360 Could have he could have easily cruised around in the 82 00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:24.199 general public and people wouldn't know who he was, Yes, exactly. 83 00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:26.439 Oh that's probably pretty nice, right. 84 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:29.360 And at the time that he got busted, he's like, 85 00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:32.800 here I go from being the Saturday Morning Kids host, 86 00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:36.879 pee Wee Herman, the man child, and then my mugshot 87 00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:39.000 makes me look like Charles Manson because he had a 88 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.439 goatee in long black along brown hair. 89 00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.040 His hair was very long, and he was like, yeah, 90 00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:45.720 it was terrible. 91 00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:48.959 That's why I've always thought it was JB's so important 92 00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:50.600 for us to be really honest on the radio. I 93 00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:53.120 always used to think, well, by getting a bar fight 94 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:54.800 and putting some guy out, it shows up in the 95 00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:58.120 front page the Austin Marriage surprised. 96 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.399 If I did something perverted, right, Yeah, people would not 97 00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:06.199 be surprised with all the things I've said on the air, 98 00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:07.240 right exactly. 99 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:10.399 The other thing that was so sad about him having 100 00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:13.160 to he concealed it because he went in anonymity, but 101 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.839 also he concealed his sexuality. He was like, if they 102 00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:20.399 find out that I'm a children's TV show host, you know. 103 00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:22.399 And gay, and yeah, keep in mind he was born 104 00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:23.279 in the fifties. 105 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:26.240 Yeah, it was so accepting. 106 00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:30.639 He Yeah, he grew up where you know, being gay was, 107 00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:32.920 you were still in the closet. 108 00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:34.040 But a lot of people. 109 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:36.240 Working, Yeah, a lot of young gay people don't realize 110 00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:38.519 how hard it was back then. I'm not saying it's 111 00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:41.759 easy now, right, but back then it was really hard. 112 00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.480 He was out for a while in the seventies, and 113 00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:49.639 then when he we hit and it was a children's show, 114 00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:52.639 he actively He's like, in here, I put myself right 115 00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:55.240 back in the closet and was really kind of alone 116 00:05:55.560 --> 00:06:00.040 for years. He sacrificed his personal life and happiness for 117 00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.839 his career and the character for a long time. 118 00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:05.480 Another part I thought was interesting, like. 119 00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:13.079 He genuinely loved the building an entertaining children's show. Yeah, 120 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:16.199 Like he was passionate about it and thought it was 121 00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:20.560 great and creative and fun and like it was. It 122 00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:24.199 was not just oh, I want to be famous?

We're going to get into that 224 00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:10.639 in just a second. I know what it's like to 225 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:14.840 get overruled. It's just that has somehow you just get overruled. 226 00:11:14.840 --> 00:11:16.840 I don't know how it happens, but it does. But 227 00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:19.480 before we get into that, JB, you're the first person 228 00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:21.559 I've offered this too, so you may want to jump 229 00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:24.240 on it. Do you have any interest in an American 230 00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:28.039 Eagle twenty twenty five one ounce silver uncirculated coin. 231 00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:34.879 Now I bought this late night TV. 232 00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:41.240 I bought. I accidentally bought two of them. 233 00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:46.559 No, I bought two American Eagle twenty twenty five one 234 00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:50.879 ounce silver dollars. They're uncirculated, they were just made at 235 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:55.440 the mint in West Point, New York, and they debuted 236 00:11:55.559 --> 00:11:59.039 at the highest price ever for a silver dollar. And 237 00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:02.519 I meant to buy one, I accidentally bought two and 238 00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:04.559 I can't cancel and I can't return it. 239 00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:05.919 How much were they? 240 00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:06.200 Can? 241 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:06.840 I ask that? 242 00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:06.960 Do? 243 00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:09.320 I want to know? It can't be that expensive? 244 00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:12.000 No, they're not that. I mean each coin was ninety 245 00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:16.399 one dollars, ninety five dollars and it's value on the 246 00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:23.720 street a dollar. No, how does this work? Well, you 247 00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:25.679 just play in the market on the price of silver, 248 00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:28.360 you know what I mean? And I bought two of 249 00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:31.600 them because I read one article that said they were 250 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.600 they they viewed the highest ever that a silver coin. 251 00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:38.840 It's the most they've ever charged for one, So that 252 00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:41.159 means it'll probably go down. I'm just saying, I've got 253 00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:43.960 this weird coin thing going on, yeah right now? 254 00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:46.240 But how did you not notice when you checked out 255 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:48.639 that your total wasn't one hundred dollars and it was 256 00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:52.919 two hundred dollars ambient. 257 00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:57.639 Free time. That's the reason. 258 00:12:57.720 --> 00:12:59.879 Hey, but look now, look if it goes up in value, 259 00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.039 we've doubled, we'll have to double the earnings. 260 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.960 Andy, And is the reason that that role of the 261 00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:08.519 coins that you ordered it took so long to get 262 00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:11.840 here because he entered half of our home address in 263 00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:14.679 the other half of the studio address. 264 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:16.639 So how it actually made it here? 265 00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:19.759 I have no idea, Andy, testament to the United States 266 00:13:19.799 --> 00:13:20.600 Postal Service. 267 00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:22.799 Great job, no interest, JB. 268 00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:25.960 Nah, I think I'm going to pass on that one. 269 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:29.559 But you keep me posting on a future deals. 270 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:32.919 I'll add you to my email list. 271 00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:37.840 Okay, all right, So JB got overruled having to do 272 00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:39.360 something that he didn't want to do. 273 00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:47.960 All weekend, I spent my whole weekend painting the inside 274 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:48.559 of a house. 275 00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:53.320 So my daughter has not been enjoying apartment life. She 276 00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:55.440 just doesn't like it. I thought she'd like all the 277 00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:58.039 amenities and all that. She's like, Nah, she just wants 278 00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.639 a little more privacy and play louder music and you know, 279 00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:02.320 stuff like that. 280 00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:04.399 And she doesn't like going in and out. 281 00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:07.120 Of the building. Her actually, her mopead was stolen from 282 00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:09.480 her apartment and just I don't know, she just didn't 283 00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:13.120 have a good experience, and so we rented her a 284 00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:13.919 little house. 285 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:21.080 It's in Rosedale. What cute neighborhood. Yea, love it, love it. 286 00:14:21.720 --> 00:14:23.720 And so here's the good in the bad. Right, So 287 00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:29.399 anything any home, any actual just physical home. It's not 288 00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:30.759 a duplex, not a town home. 289 00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:31.360 It's a house. 290 00:14:32.440 --> 00:14:36.039 Any house, because of the dirt alone is worth a lot, right, 291 00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:39.200 So the landlords have a total upper hand. 292 00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:41.200 There were three college. 293 00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:44.559 Students living in there before, because it's just Rosdale's just 294 00:14:44.639 --> 00:14:47.399 close enough to ut and all that. So there were 295 00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:49.799 three students living there. And it's a tiny, little three 296 00:14:49.799 --> 00:14:53.279 bedroom you know, the beds barely fit in the rooms, 297 00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:57.759 but you know they in. The agent that showed it 298 00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:02.360 to us was very candid and on She was like, look, 299 00:15:02.600 --> 00:15:05.399 you know, I mean I looked at like the estimate, 300 00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:08.039 you know, the Zillow's estimate for whatever that worth. It's 301 00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.840 like seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and she's renting 302 00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:13.120 it for a couple of grand a month. 303 00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:15.200 Right, that's right, not bad, right. 304 00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:20.799 And the agent was like, look, this woman owns nine 305 00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:23.639 or ten properties. She's sitting on them for a long time. 306 00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:26.799 She will make sure everything works, but she's not gonna 307 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:27.559 put money into it. 308 00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:31.559 I mean, she's not gonna do anything cosmetically exactly. So 309 00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:34.639 make sure the roof doesn't leak, and the yeah as 310 00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:37.399 she makes the ace, make sure the ac works and 311 00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:38.200 all that stuff. 312 00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.679 But uh so, my wife is like, well, if we 313 00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:48.600 buy the materials and painted ourself, will you deduct that 314 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:49.679 from the next month's rent. 315 00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:54.399 And she said, oh, surekact.
