Speaker 1: From Morecast Connect and aj Benze. Fame Uh, he'd liked
Speaker 1: to be walked on a leash and play really dirty,
Speaker 1: kinky sex games. Is uh the guy put the cock
Speaker 1: in the Peacock Network. Okay, bitch, Hey, everybody AJ Benzi
Speaker 1: here with fame, is it? Bitch? This is your daily
Speaker 1: Unfiltered podcast for Wednesday, December seventeenth, twenty twenty five. One
Speaker 1: two one seven two two five. Taping this on Monday
Speaker 1: evening in LA in Shittsville. I'll be in Chicago on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: By the time you hear this, I will be ensconced there.
Speaker 1: I just didn't want to make you guys lose a
Speaker 1: show because I was traveling mid morning and not landing
Speaker 1: till the evening and that would have sucked. So I
Speaker 1: figured I'd bang out one more show while there's enough
Speaker 1: stuff going around to talk about. I was just listening
Speaker 1: to a podcast Mark Norman, who's the other guy. I'm
Speaker 1: not a big fan of the other guy who does
Speaker 1: the podcast with him. They had Jerry Seinfeld on podcast
Speaker 1: is called We Might Be Drunk, Sam Morril and Mark Norman.
Speaker 1: Mark Muhman's great, what a great comedic mind. Sam Morel
Speaker 1: he doesn't do it for me. But they've got an
Speaker 1: interesting podcast. They've been added for a long time, well
Speaker 1: since COVID, and they're doing well. It's so funny sometimes
Speaker 1: when you hear them say things like because they're younger
Speaker 1: guys and they don't know certain people that you would
Speaker 1: think everybody should know, Like they didn't know who Slim
Speaker 1: Pickens was, and I'm like, I did not know the
Speaker 1: guy wrote the bomb in Doctor Strangelove. Come you got
Speaker 1: to know that name. But you know, these guys are younger,
Speaker 1: but they had Jerry Seinfeld on and I'm so glad
Speaker 1: that Seinfeld is becoming more active in being seen and
Speaker 1: heard as the elder statesman of comics because he's he's
Speaker 1: got him the ideas he has and the way he's
Speaker 1: honed down stand up comedy into a science is unbelievable.
Speaker 1: A lot of guys will bring their material to Jerry,
Speaker 1: for a lot of comics show their material to other
Speaker 1: comics and they both go over it, and Jerry is
Speaker 1: such he's so good at it to say a certain word,
Speaker 1: and that's what it comes down to. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: I do nearly the same thing with an hour of
Speaker 1: stand up that takes them, you know, probably a year
Speaker 1: to write and refine and get it ready to go
Speaker 1: out in the road and tape a special But I
Speaker 1: know that feeling of Is that the right word right there?
Speaker 1: That that knocked the whole rhythm off the sentence? Is
Speaker 1: that the melody this needs? Remember many years ago before
Speaker 1: I was married, or maybe I just got married, and
Speaker 1: Joey was over. He has to do a paper for college,
Speaker 1: and we want I want to go out, you know,
Speaker 1: let's go to the after hours. I gotta write this paper.
Speaker 1: I'll write the paper for you in the morning. I said,
Speaker 1: I know what you to write about. I know the rhythm.
Speaker 1: It's gotta be that about. But I've about the next paragraph.
Speaker 1: But he goes, what do you do? And I said,
Speaker 1: I just know the rhythm of the story you have
Speaker 1: to write. You told me what it's about. I got
Speaker 1: the rhythm. Okay, Now I'll do the words later. Let's
Speaker 1: go out and Jerry. In a lot of comics, the
Speaker 1: good ones are the same way. Everything has to be
Speaker 1: the right word, the right letter. Can make a joke,
Speaker 1: like Jerry tells a joke about you know, guys are sharks,
Speaker 1: women are orcas or wales not because of their size,
Speaker 1: but because you've never seen a shark perform a trick
Speaker 1: at Sea World, right, they don't the sharks if the men,
Speaker 1: we don't perform. No, the Orcas do the tricks. They're
Speaker 1: the women. They do everything. The man is so in
Speaker 1: that joke, he told instead of saying SeaWorld, he would
Speaker 1: say sea World. And his buddy girlfriend after the show,
Speaker 1: said that was a funny job. But why do you
Speaker 1: say SeaWorld? He said, because you noticed it, because SeaWorld
Speaker 1: is a boring word. We've all heard. There's nothing funny
Speaker 1: about it. In fact, it may even bring out some
Speaker 1: bed you know, attitudes toward the way animals are treated.
Speaker 1: So I say SeaWorld. It's that ridiculous, even to the
Speaker 1: point where he said, I was watching Sebastian Maniscant Go
Speaker 1: Special on Hulu, which I have. It's good, It's always good,
Speaker 1: and he said, Sebastian does it. Bit he goes, I
Speaker 1: don't want to say this, he goes, No, let's say
Speaker 1: he goes. Well, he has a great joke about you know,
Speaker 1: like I think it's a waiter coming to the table.
Speaker 1: I forget what, Oh no, somebody you're eating dinner and
Speaker 1: the person with you says, I didn't bring cash, can I? Venmo?
Speaker 1: You the money hasn't happened to me, but I guess
Speaker 1: it's happened to Sebastian. And I'm sure those dinner bills
Speaker 1: are you know, eight nine hundred dollars a thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: So you're like, yeah, you know, Venmo. But then the
Speaker 1: joke was the guy died and he's got to go
Speaker 1: to the wake and see the wife, and he goes listen,
Speaker 1: you know, I want to say the wrong thing, but
Speaker 1: you know, you know he was gonna pay me, Venmo,
Speaker 1: and I don't want it to be a complete loss.
Speaker 1: And Jerry said he should have said, right there, a
Speaker 1: loss for me too, or something like that. But it
Speaker 1: was like an extra added joke in the joke that
Speaker 1: would have got a big left. See, he's such a
Speaker 1: fucking perfectionist when it comes to I remember going to
Speaker 1: see him with my first wife, Jen and my sister Lorraine,
Speaker 1: and Frankie got to be eighty six, eighty seven, maybe
Speaker 1: even eighty five. I'm not sure we've been married yet.
Speaker 1: Westbury Music Fair the theater in the round, the theater
Speaker 1: that the stage spins very slowly, so the person, the
Speaker 1: comic or the singer can stay right there and everybody
Speaker 1: gets to see him. And Jerry wasn't Jerry Seinfeld yet.
Speaker 1: He just had done a lot of funny bits on
Speaker 1: talk shows MERV Griffin, Mike Douglas, Johnny Carson. They cavet
Speaker 1: and we went there based on the bits weetsare on TV.
Speaker 1: And there were some jokes that he already had that
Speaker 1: people were calling out the joke and he was doing
Speaker 1: it like Massa Piqua. One of Jerry's first jokes was,
Speaker 1: you know my parents are Jewish. Uh, we're from Massapequa.
Speaker 1: We live in Massapeka, which is an Indian name meaning
Speaker 1: near the mall. Now you wouldn't know that unless you're
Speaker 1: a long islander, but there's a big mall, The Massapecle
Speaker 1: Mall was a huge thing. And then he would say
Speaker 1: things like my parents moved to Florida not because they
Speaker 1: have to, but because they're old and Jewish and it's
Speaker 1: the law. Things like that that just grabbed our attention
Speaker 1: and we went to go see him, and when the
Speaker 1: show would slow down a little bit, people were star
Speaker 1: calling out to him, Jerry, when are you gonna get
Speaker 1: your own show? And this is years before Seinfeld. And
Speaker 1: he said, you know, I don't know. I mean, I
Speaker 1: take meeting. There's been meetings, but you know, you never
Speaker 1: know in this town. But we've had some meetings. You know,
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens, but it takes forever. Don't get
Speaker 1: your hopes. So could you imagine now he's a fucking billionaire.
Speaker 1: What have I done with my life since I was
Speaker 1: first married till now that Jerry Seinfeld became a billionaire?
Speaker 1: God just for making us laugh? And again I held
Speaker 1: on to it against him. Louis c K I watched
Speaker 1: his special or I listened to his special Sorry the
Speaker 1: other morning when he first came back out after the
Speaker 1: whole masturbation thing, and I was laying in my eyes
Speaker 1: half closed listening to Louis. It's great. It's just great.
Speaker 1: These guys are surgeons with jokes. Speaking of jokes, I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, I watched land Man every Sunday night,
Speaker 1: Billy Bob Thornton, Ali Lauder, Andy Garcia, it's great, it's
Speaker 1: a great show. Taylor Sheridan is the quote unquote writer.
Speaker 1: I don't believe he's writing these shows. Whatsoever he might
Speaker 1: have come up with the pilot episode. But there's no
Speaker 1: way a guy can write Lion is Tulsa King Landman,
Speaker 1: and there's a two or three others. You're not you can't.
Speaker 1: What are you fucking Stephen King on steroids? You can't
Speaker 1: do it. And I have my whole idea about Stephen
Speaker 1: King where he has a bunch of younger writers that
Speaker 1: get paid to write like Kim. I just don't believe
Speaker 1: somebody can turn out all those ideas for for for
Speaker 1: years on end and be such a stick in the
Speaker 1: mud curmudgeon with with the world and politics. I don't
Speaker 1: you know. So I'm watching land Man last night, and
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you it's been a long time since
Speaker 1: any fucking TV show ever said anything or alluded to
Speaker 1: anything positive about being conservative and God blessed Landman. So
Speaker 1: there's a phone call between Billy Bob Thornton and his
Speaker 1: truck and he's his his dad is played by Sam Elliott.
Speaker 1: It's perfect. Sam's eighty years old. He got the deep
Speaker 1: voice which I can't imitate, the big old whisk brow mustache,
Speaker 1: and Billy Bob and his wife basically moved Sam Shepherd
Speaker 1: into their home. Sam Elliott, Sorry, Sam Elliott into their
Speaker 1: home so he can be with family and come to
Speaker 1: life again. You know. So father was bored, and Billy
Speaker 1: Bob said, why don't you put TV on? Watch something?
Speaker 1: Watch I don't know, watch one of those morning shows.
Speaker 1: Want you to read a book, watch TV, watch you know,
Speaker 1: watch the View or something like that. And Sam Elliott says,
Speaker 1: what's the view? He said, the View is a bunch
Speaker 1: of pissed off millionaires, bitch. No matter how much they
Speaker 1: hate millionaires and Trump and men like you and me
Speaker 1: and everybody else, they got to be up their ass
Speaker 1: about how fucking great is that. No one's done it
Speaker 1: for years, no one had the balls to do it.
Speaker 1: Taylor Sheridan tipped the cap to you and whoever's on
Speaker 1: your writing staff, and he said to the father, the
Speaker 1: show is pretty funny. But sam Elia was like, I
Speaker 1: don't know, don't sound funny. He said, well, it ain't
Speaker 1: joke funny, but it's like a Farton Church funny. You
Speaker 1: know what I mean? That don't sound funny neither son,
Speaker 1: But thank god that was injected into the teleplay. Good
Speaker 1: for them. Can't take this show. All the beautiful women.
Speaker 1: I'm going bananas. Demi Moore looks fantastic, Ali Lauter, I
Speaker 1: don't know what else to say about him. She blows
Speaker 1: me away. And then you got Billy Bob Thornton's daughter.
Speaker 1: I forget her name. She's making the scene. I think
Speaker 1: she's dating Jacob Alordie. Now the six foot five good
Speaker 1: looking actor from Saltburn and Frankenstein. And Billy Bob Thornton's
Speaker 1: son who just struck it rich in the oil fields,
Speaker 1: is got a Mexican girlfriend soon to be his wife.
Speaker 1: She's adorable. I don't know what those actresses names are.
Speaker 1: Billy Bob's attorney is hot shit. And now the next
Speaker 1: door neighbor his daughter's friend is named Shelby. She came
Speaker 1: around with a bikini on to come to Defence to
Speaker 1: talk to Sam Elliott. She's a knockout. Oh and Andy
Speaker 1: Garcia's Italian wife is gorgeous. She plays Bella Galino. Get
Speaker 1: on this show, start from season one and just binge it.
Speaker 1: Here's what I don't want to binge anymore. But every
Speaker 1: time I turn on Instagram or TikTok or tv icv
Speaker 1: Erica Kirk Tour, listen again. I've said this before. I
Speaker 1: don't want to make this a weekly thing. Horrifying what
Speaker 1: she went through, terrible her kids are going through. And
Speaker 1: yet she's out there every day on this whatever the
Speaker 1: fuck you want to call this tour of tele vision
Speaker 1: and podcast. I don't get it. Stay home, be there
Speaker 1: for your children. They need you more than either nannies
Speaker 1: because daddy's gone. And don't tell me anybody shit like,
Speaker 1: oh they're Blueberry budget. Daddy's gonna go work more play
Speaker 1: for your blueberry budget. The fuck up. Don't talk to me.
Speaker 1: You believe in God, like you're such a great Christian,
Speaker 1: then tell them the truth about what happened. Daddy's in
Speaker 1: heaven when Jackie died. What do you think my nephew
Speaker 1: Joey told his daughters Jackie's in heaven. That's what they think.
Speaker 1: You don't make it a fucking joke. Blueberry budget bullshit, guys.
Speaker 1: I can't take her. Look. I can't take Candas Owens either.
Speaker 1: But Candae Owens is a fire breathing dragon of controversies
Speaker 1: and conspiracies, and she ain't slowing down. She's begging people
Speaker 1: to sue her, and nobody is that's dangerous. But when
Speaker 1: she you know they've agreed to get together and talk
Speaker 1: Candace and eric O Kirk. I don't like the way
Speaker 1: Erica Kirk looks. In fact, she looks way different. Did
Speaker 1: I say this? She actually looked better a few days
Speaker 1: after Charlie was killed. Now what she looks like I
Speaker 1: don't even know who this is. The eye movements, the
Speaker 1: facial contortions, and she has these demonic eyes, almost like
Speaker 1: a wolf in the wild. What is going on? Listen,
Speaker 1: Candice Owens, you were a friend to my husband. You
Speaker 1: were a very key member of TDUSA. Now when I'm
Speaker 1: saying this, you understand there's a lot of facial contortions.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of Erica Kirk looking up toward the heavens,
Speaker 1: a lot of eyes running up the tissue dotting the
Speaker 1: far corner of the eyes where tears don't come out
Speaker 1: they come out close to your nose. But whatever the
Speaker 1: fuck Now you've turned on me, his sad grieving widow.
Speaker 1: Look up to the sky, bling twice, DoD your I
Speaker 1: now get serious. That's all I want to say to you.
Speaker 1: No one is allowed to make money off of my
Speaker 1: husband's death except me. I don't even like the sound
Speaker 1: of that sentence. We clearly know you're making money off
Speaker 1: your husband's death, because apparently you're running the whole fucking show.
Speaker 1: You've been on the road like you're performing for vaudeville.
Speaker 1: We go home. Who thought this was a good idea?
Speaker 1: Let's get Erica out to all the podcasts, all the
Speaker 1: TV shows. Let's have her seen that very bad idea.
Speaker 1: She needed to disappear for a while. Have a spokesman
Speaker 1: speak for TDUSA, that brilliant guy that they all said
Speaker 1: was the best. Have somebody else you are robbing from
Speaker 1: my daughter's blueberry blueberry budget. There goes that stupid fucking
Speaker 1: Hackney phrase that means shit. But I believe in a
Speaker 1: just God. But he is sovereign, and I take peace
Speaker 1: in knowing that. Ewell Eyswell, look up, squint, look hard
Speaker 1: at the interviewer. Be angry, be vindictive. She's fucking crazy. Listen.
Speaker 1: I studied acting for many years. I know when somebody's
Speaker 1: trying their damn this to act a certain way, and
Speaker 1: she's failing every step of the way. Do I feel horrible?
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk was murdered. Of course. I liked him so much.
Speaker 1: I hung on his every word. I watched all the
Speaker 1: videos on Instagram and TikTok and everything on social media.
Speaker 1: The guy was tremendous. I told you a month ago
Speaker 1: when Morocco told me. Rocco was the first to text me.
Speaker 1: They shot Charlie Kirk. I didn't even know he knew
Speaker 1: of Charlie Kirk, the fact that he was reaching our youth.
Speaker 1: God bless that guy. His wife ain't reaching anybody, nobody, nothing.
Speaker 1: She's not doing anything. She's in Barrasra, myself and the company.
Speaker 1: You know you shouldn't judge. Let me tell you something.
Speaker 1: God gave us wisdom. God gave me the right to judge.
Speaker 1: He gave me the right to have a certain feeling
Speaker 1: about certain people. He gave me intuition. He gave me
Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt of living on this earth
Speaker 1: for sixty three years and understanding how people act and
Speaker 1: speak when they're being truthful, when they're lying. This is
Speaker 1: the way I based my career on. When it came
Speaker 1: to reporting, what wasn't in a conversation or on the
Speaker 1: page was in my head. I saw it, I felt it,
Speaker 1: and because I'm so tuned into what I feel, I
Speaker 1: wrote stories based on what I felt, not always with
Speaker 1: people told me. Because I was a columnist, I could
Speaker 1: write subjectively. I worked a long time to receive that
Speaker 1: privilege to write subjectively, to give my opinion. And that's
Speaker 1: all I've been doing for eight years and even longer.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna stop. Because God gave me gifts like
Speaker 1: he gave Erica gifts, like he gave Charlie gifts. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna not use my gifts. So if it bothers
Speaker 1: a bunch of you, I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 1: You must not know people as well as I do.
Speaker 1: And if and if she thinks she's reaching anybody, the
Speaker 1: only people she's reaching is the hardline Christians who put
Speaker 1: God and Christianity in front of everything. She may be
Speaker 1: reaching them, she ain't reaching those of us who, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm Christian, Yeah I believe in God. Yeah yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't go to church law. But yeah, she ain't reaching us.
Speaker 1: She's not. Okay, let's talk about the other bullshit going on,
Speaker 1: ray j A. Let's go from Erica Kirk to ray
Speaker 1: j A, Jesus Craik Craik Jesus Craik Jesus Christ. Sorry,
Speaker 1: the three shows today. Ray j A, who was famous,
Speaker 1: of course for banging, came Kardashian and their sex tape
Speaker 1: many years ago in Mexico. He's not backing down. He
Speaker 1: keeps saying that Kim Kardashian and her mom, Chris Jenner,
Speaker 1: are racketeers. He claims that Kim and her mom teamed
Speaker 1: up with Vivid Entertainment to defraud the public with their
Speaker 1: fake defamation suit against him. When I first came to
Speaker 1: LA and driving on the one oh one and past
Speaker 1: Lancashim and Colwater Canyon, headed west, Vivid Pictures, Vivid Entertainment
Speaker 1: is a big building where all the porn was made,
Speaker 1: and ain't there anymore. Yeah, if you were a Vivid girl,
Speaker 1: you were doing well. Barbara Dare was a vivid girl.
Speaker 1: Vivid video God so different now. But yeah, he's still
Speaker 1: he's not letting this go. He says to me, Kim
Speaker 1: and Chris have repeatedly engaged in a criminal enterprise and
Speaker 1: racketeering activity, violating RICO over and we're gonna have no
Speaker 1: doubt about that. He filed legal documents. He's serious. He's
Speaker 1: asking the judge to dismiss the case. I'm sorry, Kim
Speaker 1: and Chris are saying, dismiss this case. No, sorry, I'm wrong.
Speaker 1: Ray J is now asking the judge to dismiss the case,
Speaker 1: saying that Jenner and Kim have committed legal wrongdoings that
Speaker 1: are worse than the accusations leveled against Sean did He Combs,
Speaker 1: Come on, bro, really, Kim and Chriss Rico violations are
Speaker 1: worse than any reco violations that did He is accused of.
Speaker 1: Remember Ray J stood behind did He a year ago,
Speaker 1: saying it's all bullshit, it's all manufactured, it's all nonsense.
Speaker 1: Did He's a great guy? Now he's kind of understanding. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: did he pay me to get the word out on
Speaker 1: his on his behalf? It didn't work out. Now he's off.
Speaker 1: Did He's payroll? The money's getting tight. So here he
Speaker 1: comes to Kim and Chris again. Nobody's stopping them. He
Speaker 1: said they committed credit card fraud against him and his family.
Speaker 1: You ready for this by building an eight one hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars bill. Excuse me, I don't mean
Speaker 1: to sound racist. What white or black family has credit?
Speaker 1: Cause that can go to eight hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, I don't know. That doesn't sound right to me,
Speaker 1: doesn't sound you know and Kim and Chris filed the
Speaker 1: defamation suit against them a few months ago after he
Speaker 1: said that he was working with the Feds to build
Speaker 1: a RICO case against them. It's getting crazy. In addition
Speaker 1: to saying that he and Kim consentually film that sex
Speaker 1: tape back in twenty three My god, almost twenty three
Speaker 1: years ago. Wow, he said, it's the decision to release it,
Speaker 1: which I've said in the past, was prompted by the
Speaker 1: TV show back in two thousand and six. They needed
Speaker 1: something to pump. It looks like they always do. Kanye
Speaker 1: says that Kim set the whole robbery up in Paris.
Speaker 1: I don't believe that, but you know what they do
Speaker 1: to get eyes on the show. The next thing is
Speaker 1: going to be Courtney and Travis Barker breaking up. Watch
Speaker 1: watch you'll see, or their marriage is in peril. Watch
Speaker 1: it's bad. It's bad. But after ray J responded to
Speaker 1: their accusations, they eventually paid him six million bucks after
Speaker 1: that tape hit the market, six million in a settlement agreement.
Speaker 1: But part of that agreement was that no further mentioned
Speaker 1: or public reference to the sex tape on his show
Speaker 1: or any show he does it's a look. Man. I
Speaker 1: know he's no saints, but I kind of believe him.
Speaker 1: You know, Kardashians have been doing this kind of grifting
Speaker 1: for a long time. Kim said back in the day,
Speaker 1: she would do anything to be rich and famous. I mean,
Speaker 1: she was brought up rich, she wanted to be ultra famous,
Speaker 1: and she is arguably one of the most famous women
Speaker 1: in the world. But you know, ray J did all
Speaker 1: the work. And I don't know if you've seen the
Speaker 1: porn tape, Kim does an imitation of a starfish, the
Speaker 1: human starfish. She lays there, does nothing. Ray J does
Speaker 1: all the work. He deserve He deserved more money because
Speaker 1: Kim just laid there. Yeah, she looked good, But that
Speaker 1: goes so far. Every time I hear the name of
Speaker 1: ray J, it always makes me think of that old
Speaker 1: comic Bill Saluga. You guys know who he is. He
Speaker 1: is to do bit. His bit back in the day
Speaker 1: was he'd go on these talk shows or on like,
Speaker 1: you know, variety shows, and his bit was, oh, someone
Speaker 1: will say hey, ray J. Johnson and he'd say, oh,
Speaker 1: you doesn't have to call me Johnson. My name is
Speaker 1: Raymond J. Johnson Junior. But you can call me Ray,
Speaker 1: you can call me Jay, or you can call me Johnny,
Speaker 1: or you can call me Sonny, or you can call
Speaker 1: me Junior, or you can call me Ray J. Or
Speaker 1: you can call me r J. Or you can even
Speaker 1: call me r j J. But it doesn't have to
Speaker 1: call me Johnson. That was his whole bit. It sounds
Speaker 1: ridiculous now. He did this on Red Fox's show, The
Speaker 1: Tonight Show, David Steinberg, The Gung Show. I remember first
Speaker 1: singing on the Tom Jones Variety Show. I was nine
Speaker 1: years old. I remember I loved it because I saw
Speaker 1: my brother in law Jack laughing like crazy. And we'd
Speaker 1: always watch a lot of comedy shows together because when
Speaker 1: Jack and Roll live with us for a time to
Speaker 1: save money to buy a house or put a down
Speaker 1: payment down, they would watch TV with us, you know.
Speaker 1: And then several years later they bought the house next
Speaker 1: door to us and which was on the canal. I
Speaker 1: think it was fifty four thousand and fifty two to
Speaker 1: five some ridiculous amount of money went up to a million.
Speaker 1: It's nbelieve. Real estate is fucking everything. And before they
Speaker 1: could get HBO in the new house, we had it
Speaker 1: and back then home Box Office was playing one movie
Speaker 1: over and over called Shila Levine is Alive and Well
Speaker 1: and Living in New York. I'm pretty sure that was
Speaker 1: the insane title, Shila Levine is Alive and Living in
Speaker 1: them or Alive and Well. That was the big that
Speaker 1: movie was on. Also Report to the Commissioner with Michael Moriarity.
Speaker 1: I remember these I was a kid. There were two
Speaker 1: movies on all day home box Office, a no showtime,
Speaker 1: no movie channel, no cinemats, Home box Office. So before
Speaker 1: they can get HBO, they would come over. They'd watch
Speaker 1: George Colin, HBO Specialist, Rodney Dangerfield, Richard Pryor, and we'd
Speaker 1: all laugh as a family. And eventually what we did
Speaker 1: was so they could stay home. My father got a
Speaker 1: long bunch of cable wire and he went from the
Speaker 1: back of our home box office box and put it
Speaker 1: opened our screen window behind the TV at half an
Speaker 1: ench snuck the wire route, snaked it up the side
Speaker 1: of the house, across the roof, then over our grape arbor,
Speaker 1: up into Rosalie and Jack's deck and by their kitchen
Speaker 1: so they can get cable. We pirated cable. That was
Speaker 1: a big thing back then. You can't pirate cable. It
Speaker 1: was punishable up two a year in jail, like that
Speaker 1: stupid copyright rule, or pulling a tag off a bedspread
Speaker 1: or a fucking pillow, so stupid. Nowadays, if you give
Speaker 1: a Netflix account to somebody, they did right away, text
Speaker 1: you EM, it's just you. Someone just It's like instant,
Speaker 1: like a stoppo. One of my high school buddies I
Speaker 1: talk about a lot Robert Passier, who got beat up
Speaker 1: at the rench, the toughest bastard in school who bit
Speaker 1: almost Pachico's nose off before they became friends. His son.
Speaker 1: I talked to his son, Chris, great kid. He wanted
Speaker 1: to watch some of the Netflix, said, use my account.
Speaker 1: I gave him information. He went on to watch a
Speaker 1: movie in the Netflix. Are just you? Where are you?
Speaker 1: Calm the fuck down? Netflix? You get money paying you.
Speaker 1: They're cracking down guys. Pirrating cable was a big thing.
Speaker 1: Fifty cent is given it to Tyler Perry. I love
Speaker 1: fifty cent. He doesn't give a shit. You know. Tyler
Speaker 1: Perry made the mistake of watching the p Diddy documentary
Speaker 1: and going on social media and saying, you know, listen, man,
Speaker 1: I stole the documentary. Now look, I would he was
Speaker 1: a freak in my day. First of all, don't say
Speaker 1: that you're a ginormous clear Stop saying you were a
Speaker 1: freak in your day. We can only imagine what that
Speaker 1: means and what men you would banging or who was
Speaker 1: behind you. More likely, I was a freak in my day.
Speaker 1: And look, you know, I wish, I wish the documentary
Speaker 1: could say more about all the good things Pete did
Speaker 1: he did and how many people he helped. But you know,
Speaker 1: that's the way it goes. But otherwise I found it
Speaker 1: a very intriguing doc. Fifty cent shot right back. Don't
Speaker 1: you worry. You do the same thing in the entertainment
Speaker 1: business he was doing in the music business. Your documentary's
Speaker 1: coming next. Oh, don't fuck with fifty cent. I love
Speaker 1: this guy, love him, And I guess we got to
Speaker 1: talk about h Nick Reiner again. It's not going to
Speaker 1: go away for a while. No one really knows any details,
Speaker 1: so to speak, what the fight was about, how long
Speaker 1: was the knife, who he killed first, had it unfold?
Speaker 1: That's not being taught. We may never know that unless
Speaker 1: he talks about it himself. But apparently they're saying now
Speaker 1: he really resented his father, and he hated himself for
Speaker 1: not being as talented, prolific or beloved, beloved well in
Speaker 1: Hollywood as his father or grandfather, Carl Reiner, who was
Speaker 1: amazing with mel Brooks. I mean, you give me a
Speaker 1: thousand year old man, Go listen to those sketches. They're
Speaker 1: still funny sixty years later, seventy years later. I mean
Speaker 1: his Rob Reiner ninety acting in ninety movies, fifty five
Speaker 1: writing credits, thirty two producing credits, thirty directing credits. There's
Speaker 1: not many people more prolific than he was, won a
Speaker 1: bunch of awards. His father was tremendous actor, comedian, screen runter, director,
Speaker 1: same thing. Nick battled drug addiction for more than half
Speaker 1: his life. Wrote that silly film Being Charlie about his
Speaker 1: almost twenty stints in rehab. Rob directed it, doing all
Speaker 1: he can to playcate his son and keep him calm
Speaker 1: because he knew this is a fucking time bomb. I'm
Speaker 1: feeling bad for Rob Ryan. And I listened to James
Speaker 1: Woods today on the Jesse Water Show. It told me
Speaker 1: a lot because James Woods is a conservative animal. He
Speaker 1: is so staunchly conservative and pro maga and ryno was
Speaker 1: the opposite, and he was almost crying, saying, Rob gave
Speaker 1: me a movie Mississippi Burning, when I was thirty years
Speaker 1: too young for the part, but he went to bat
Speaker 1: for me at Castle Rock. My career was on the
Speaker 1: downspind he got me in a movie. Next thing I know,
Speaker 1: I'm nominated for Academy Award and my career took off.
Speaker 1: I owe so much to him. We've hung out many times.
Speaker 1: We don't talk politics, or if we do, he gives
Speaker 1: me his ideas. I give him mind and we don't argue.
Speaker 1: Kind of like me and Bill Maher. You can have
Speaker 1: those conversations with people you respect and like without having
Speaker 1: the vitriol and the anger. It's different when you don't
Speaker 1: know Rob Ryaner and he's, you know, spouting off on
Speaker 1: Twitter talking shit about Trump should be in the mental
Speaker 1: And I know it's hard to read that shit. But
Speaker 1: this poor daughter, Roamy Reiner, great name, she discovers this
Speaker 1: horrible scene Mommy and daddy with their throat slit I'm imagining.
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I think it's the kitchen. I
Speaker 1: don't know if they even said yet. I just think
Speaker 1: it's the kitchen. I don't know why and I don't
Speaker 1: know why I would imagine he killed his father first. Oh,
Speaker 1: I just I can't even wow. Somehow it's easier to
Speaker 1: think of the Menendez brothers using shotguns than it is
Speaker 1: with the ultra personal knife slit your throat routine. You
Speaker 1: gotta hold somebody down for that ship. How does how
Speaker 1: does a son do that to a mother and a
Speaker 1: father without being completely psychotically fucked up on drugs? Come on?
Speaker 1: So the daughter makes this discovery and I'm want to
Speaker 1: point something out that I don't really like, and I
Speaker 1: think this might be a clue. Officers respond to the house,
Speaker 1: and she told the officers that a relative should be
Speaker 1: a suspect because they're dangerous. Well, she's saying the quiet
Speaker 1: part out loud, they are dangerous. Is that a pronoun
Speaker 1: slip or the way he wanted to be referred to?
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you say he's dangerous, My brother's dangerous. They
Speaker 1: are dangerous. That's weird to me. We've heard a rumor
Speaker 1: that he was transitioning, and I think everybody wants to
Speaker 1: believe that because that's been the flavor of the year
Speaker 1: or more than a year. I'm not sure. I look
Speaker 1: at this guy. I don't see him wanting to be
Speaker 1: a woman. I see him as a fucked up guy,
Speaker 1: the kind of guy you don't want to stand next
Speaker 1: to or give the finger too. In the car and traffic,
Speaker 1: he just looked fucking crazy. I don't see transgender with him.
Speaker 1: But I could be wrong. But right now the pictures
Speaker 1: I've seen, I don't see it. Now we're hearing about
Speaker 1: his serious behavioral issues from a young age. In fact,
Speaker 1: they I can't take this. The New York Posts interviewed
Speaker 1: their personal yoga teacher, a woman named Alana Zabel, who
Speaker 1: taught Rob and his wife yoga for many years in
Speaker 1: the early two thousands, so it's been twenty years. Somehow,
Speaker 1: she decides I'm gonna call the New York Post and
Speaker 1: get give them some information, because she says Nick used
Speaker 1: to interrupt pretty much all of the yoga sessions at
Speaker 1: the family's La home. She said those disruptions would last
Speaker 1: twenty minutes or longer. Outbursts were intense, a lot of screaming,
Speaker 1: and Zabel, who also has a degree in child development,
Speaker 1: said that Robin Michelle asked to do yoga with NICKI
Speaker 1: privately hoping it will help him calm his heightened nervous system.
Speaker 1: This woman goes on to talk about describing Nick as
Speaker 1: a little boy with behavioral issues who was always upsetting
Speaker 1: everyone but trying to figure it out. I don't like
Speaker 1: what she did here. First of all, he was a kid.
Speaker 1: I don't think he was a junkie yet, although he
Speaker 1: did run away from home at fifteen, maybe he was
Speaker 1: already getting fucked up. But anybody who's doing drugs does
Speaker 1: not want to sit down for yoga. But this woman
Speaker 1: points out that there are many variables to consider when
Speaker 1: it comes to a child's behavior, including genetic components. Of course,
Speaker 1: genetics play a big role in it. You know what
Speaker 1: else plays a big role. Hollywood parents not spending enough
Speaker 1: time with their kids. Hollywood parents throwing money at kids
Speaker 1: and not what they need, which was support and parental
Speaker 1: guidance and love. But just throw money. We'll fix here.
Speaker 1: I got that will set well pay for rehab for
Speaker 1: seventeen fucking times a million dollars. Easy, did nothing, she said.
Speaker 1: That's also the fact that the rhinos live in Hollywood.
Speaker 1: I have witnessed the children of Hollywood personalities have a
Speaker 1: really difficult time because they're living in a fantasy world.
Speaker 1: The parents are prioritizing many things, including them, but there's
Speaker 1: also the perception of negligence exactly. And when you live
Speaker 1: in a major city like California, you got drugs all already,
Speaker 1: can find drugs easily. She didn't feel she didn't feel
Speaker 1: Nick had the right guidance, even though she says Robin
Speaker 1: Michelle did everything in their power to help their son,
Speaker 1: but it didn't work. She even said this, and this
Speaker 1: is what bothers me. Her experience with Nick inspired her
Speaker 1: to write her first children's book, called A Chair in
Speaker 1: the Air, which tells the story of a boy named
Speaker 1: Nicki who was full of big feelings and even bigger energy. How,
Speaker 1: as parents, do you allow this fucking new age yoga teacher,
Speaker 1: bullshit artist to write a book and use your son's
Speaker 1: name and basically write about him for the world to read,
Speaker 1: and the writers signed off on it. You're exploring your
Speaker 1: kids problems? Why would you allow that? The minute she
Speaker 1: brings up the idea, no, no, let's know, you can
Speaker 1: write your book. It's not my son. You're not gonna
Speaker 1: use his fucking name. Use Charlie. I don't care who
Speaker 1: you use. Ricky. If you're not gonna use Nick. That's it.
Speaker 1: That's I can't have it. It's my son. He knows
Speaker 1: this book. He's gonna get old enough and understand it
Speaker 1: and think, what the fuck did my parents let this
Speaker 1: person do to me. I think it's deplorable that she
Speaker 1: did that, childhood yoga teacher. I'm reading so many stories
Speaker 1: about Nick and Rob and Michelle everything. I hit six, seven, eight,
Speaker 1: nine stories, and there are many ways to report this story,
Speaker 1: but all of them feel the same. They all read
Speaker 1: the same, and I'm getting disgusted with one of This
Speaker 1: is why I don't attack stories today or two later.
Speaker 1: I wait, because all it is is the initial vomit
Speaker 1: of feelings, not facts, just basically what could be innuendo.
Speaker 1: We don't know, but this could be it. That could
Speaker 1: be it. I want facts. Unfortunately, the demand for information
Speaker 1: has outstripped the supply, so more supply will be turned out,
Speaker 1: no matter how bad the quality is. That's the new
Speaker 1: media gang. But I think this yoga teacher Alana Zabel
Speaker 1: is a disgusting person getting attention for herself by commenting
Speaker 1: on her past encounters with a couple of people she
Speaker 1: loved who are dead now their bodies aren't even cold,
Speaker 1: and their daughter found this grizzly crime scene is going
Speaker 1: through all types of trauma, and this fucking yoga teacher
Speaker 1: is out there doing interviews about Nick's struggles and the
Speaker 1: parents struggles. Pathetic person, No class. How slow are your
Speaker 1: bookings in your yoga class? So you've got to do this.
Speaker 1: This is going to get more people to your door
Speaker 1: for your hot yoga sessions. Disgusting. Some people do things
Speaker 1: for clicks and like like, some people do things for Hey,
Speaker 1: come to my class. You know, more dollars on my
Speaker 1: bank account because you read about me in the post
Speaker 1: about that poor kid who killed his poor parents. I
Speaker 1: don't like it. I think it's disgusting, but that's the
Speaker 1: world we live in. Anyho, Gang, I said, it's late
Speaker 1: Monday night. I gotta get ready to pack. I'm leaving
Speaker 1: tomorrow morning. That was your daily Unfiltered podcast for December seventeen,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. You'll hear from Thursday. There'll be a
Speaker 1: relationship Submitch and of course a FIAB, and then we'll
Speaker 1: chug into the weekend as the clock ticks closer to
Speaker 1: Christmas Day. I hope you've done your shop and talk
Speaker 1: to you tomorrow,
