00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.839
<v Speaker 1>From Workhouse Connect and aj Benze fame. Uh he'd liked

2
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:09.119
<v Speaker 1>to be walked on a leash and play really dirty,

3
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:12.519
<v Speaker 1>kinky sex games. He's uh the guy put the cock

4
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:17.640
<v Speaker 1>in the peacock network. Okay, bitch, Hey everybody, AJ Benzi

5
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:21.679
<v Speaker 1>here with famous Bitch. This is your daily Unfiltered podcast

6
00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:29.160
<v Speaker 1>for July one, twenty twenty six oh seven oh one

7
00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>two two six. Normally I don't like odd numbers, but uh,

8
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:37.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, today's my daughter's twenty second birth. Did I

9
00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 1>say twenty three the other day? She's twenty two. She's

10
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.640
<v Speaker 1>born in two thousand and four, and man, did that

11
00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:52.079
<v Speaker 1>go fast? That just ripped by me. But so that's

12
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:54.359
<v Speaker 1>why I don't mind the odd numbers today, because they

13
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:58.280
<v Speaker 1>correspond to her day of birth. And I want to

14
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:00.320
<v Speaker 1>think back to what that was like to have a

15
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.280
<v Speaker 1>little baby daughter. I think every man should have a

16
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>daughter first before a boy. If you can manage that,

17
00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>it's up to fate, I guess. But a daughter will

18
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:17.480
<v Speaker 1>prepare you to be a better man. A boy will

19
00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:19.640
<v Speaker 1>make you remain the same man. That's the way I

20
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:21.920
<v Speaker 1>see it. I could be wrong, But a girl, a

21
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:25.319
<v Speaker 1>little girl will find your soft side well you'll find

22
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:30.359
<v Speaker 1>your soft side with her, and that'll make you wive

23
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:33.200
<v Speaker 1>a girlfriend like you more. You know, it's just a

24
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 1>it's a good thing. And I just found some old

25
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:42.840
<v Speaker 1>videos on the thumb drive of her when she was,

26
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, potty training, actually when she was a little baby.

27
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:52.200
<v Speaker 1>I posted one the other day of her making a

28
00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:55.879
<v Speaker 1>spitting noise. She was she gave the raspberry to the Yankees.

29
00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:58.920
<v Speaker 1>She couldn't have been more than I don't know, three

30
00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:02.079
<v Speaker 1>months old. And she was born on the day I've

31
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:06.239
<v Speaker 1>said this before when Derek Juda made the amazing catch

32
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.719
<v Speaker 1>falling into the stands against the Boston Red Sox. He

33
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:12.879
<v Speaker 1>came out of the stands bloodied. It was a remarkable

34
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:17.159
<v Speaker 1>catch and it was just beautiful. She was born that day.

35
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:24.039
<v Speaker 1>And there's a video of my wife grabbing Roxy's arms,

36
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:28.960
<v Speaker 1>are going yay Yankees, Yay Yankees. Yeah yeah, and then

37
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>she just goes so But it was great, great stuff

38
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:45.560
<v Speaker 1>growing up with her. For some reason, I would read

39
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.439
<v Speaker 1>these magazines Family Fair, New York Magazine. I love to,

40
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, back then magazines, and I still love the magazine,

41
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:57.840
<v Speaker 1>but they're shot now. And this little girl a year

42
00:02:57.879 --> 00:02:59.719
<v Speaker 1>and a half fold two years old will take the

43
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:02.439
<v Speaker 1>man for me and start paging through it like she

44
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:04.439
<v Speaker 1>knew what she was doing. She was gonna look at

45
00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:07.280
<v Speaker 1>pictures or read stories. I had a great picture it's

46
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.919
<v Speaker 1>on an old phone where she's lying on my bed

47
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:14.639
<v Speaker 1>and she's gotta her leg crossed over her leg and

48
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.800
<v Speaker 1>she's reading, or she's looking on pictures of Tom Cruise.

49
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:22.800
<v Speaker 1>And then when she got a little older, maybe five

50
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:27.919
<v Speaker 1>or six, she couldn't get enough of the Nicholas Cage

51
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:34.360
<v Speaker 1>movie Ghostwriter. We must have seen that fifty times. It

52
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:36.719
<v Speaker 1>was the only thing I could do sometimes the calm

53
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:41.479
<v Speaker 1>her down. Ghost Okay, Daddy coming back, and we'd sit

54
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 1>in bed, grab some chips or some something to pick on,

55
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>and I'd put ghost Rider in and she was captive it. It

56
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:52.520
<v Speaker 1>would Nick Cage. I said, this little girl loves loves

57
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.759
<v Speaker 1>movie stars. Wow. And then I spent a lot of

58
00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:00.479
<v Speaker 1>time when she was a baby at the house we

59
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:06.240
<v Speaker 1>used to live in. The computer room didn't have ac

60
00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:10.039
<v Speaker 1>It was hot there, you know, and out here in

61
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:13.479
<v Speaker 1>the valley it's just you know, it could be nine

62
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 1>o'clock at night and still eighty five degrees it's hot.

63
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>So I'd sit it down on my lap and we'd

64
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:21.959
<v Speaker 1>I'd take her to Google. I go, I go to

65
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:24.079
<v Speaker 1>YouTube and Google, I go to YouTube, and I'd find

66
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>all the singers I love, Sinatra, Billy Holiday, Anina, Simone,

67
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:35.759
<v Speaker 1>Buddy Ali, anybody, Johnny Cash, and I would let her

68
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:40.000
<v Speaker 1>hear them sing, and I would sing, you know, the

69
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.399
<v Speaker 1>words out loud so she could understand them. Sinatra was big,

70
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:50.720
<v Speaker 1>of course, and then I began to sing to her

71
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:54.879
<v Speaker 1>in bed and every single night, and I repeated this

72
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>with Rocco. I take them into bed and I'd sing

73
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:01.720
<v Speaker 1>five or six song before they get to bed. I

74
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.319
<v Speaker 1>always would sing to Roxy the best is yet, the

75
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:09.639
<v Speaker 1>co best is yet come come day, and I poke

76
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:12.399
<v Speaker 1>a little fan, You're gonna be ma, and she would

77
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:17.240
<v Speaker 1>kick go and laugh. I would sing so many songs

78
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:20.399
<v Speaker 1>to five or six or seven in a row, and

79
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:23.199
<v Speaker 1>she'd start to get tired and full of sleep and

80
00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:29.800
<v Speaker 1>do the same thing at Rocco. You know, and apparently

81
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:31.759
<v Speaker 1>it goes a long way, because you know, she ended

82
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:36.480
<v Speaker 1>up becoming a musician and a great voice, and she

83
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>can act. Not that she's pursuing that, but she certainly

84
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:42.199
<v Speaker 1>could do it. She did it in high school and

85
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>she was really good, so you don't know, you know,

86
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:49.040
<v Speaker 1>you tell these kids, you show kids everything you can

87
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:51.600
<v Speaker 1>think of, and let them choose what they want to do,

88
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:55.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, just put everything in front of them. Here's

89
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 1>this sport, here's that sport, here's this music, here's this book,

90
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:04.839
<v Speaker 1>here's and they'll find it and they'll move forward with

91
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:07.279
<v Speaker 1>it in life. And that's all you can ask for.

92
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Find your way. We used to take I used to

93
00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:13.680
<v Speaker 1>take her for walks. We used to get up in

94
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:17.600
<v Speaker 1>the morning and I put her in the stroller and

95
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:21.959
<v Speaker 1>I'd take a walk to Blockbuster Videos. It was about

96
00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:24.920
<v Speaker 1>five blocks away. First I would get it like a

97
00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:27.639
<v Speaker 1>not a milkshake, but like a nice drink from this

98
00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:29.800
<v Speaker 1>like I don't know what you call it. Not not

99
00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>a bagel store, but they had bagels, they had shakes,

100
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>stupid And I'd stop and get her some kind of

101
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:38.639
<v Speaker 1>a drink and she'd love that in her little stroller,

102
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:41.720
<v Speaker 1>and then we'd walk back to our little neighborhood. And

103
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:48.560
<v Speaker 1>whenever she saw a bunch of bumblebees on a rose bush,

104
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 1>she would tell me to stop, daddy, and she would

105
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:54.360
<v Speaker 1>talk to the bumblebees and they didn't come and sting her.

106
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:57.240
<v Speaker 1>They didn't get angry, and she was so sweet to

107
00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:02.600
<v Speaker 1>the bumblebees. I mister B, Hi, missus B looked at

108
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:05.040
<v Speaker 1>her together. I know, Mama, I know, I see that

109
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:11.000
<v Speaker 1>no one stung her. They didn't. They just let her

110
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:14.120
<v Speaker 1>talk to them and didn't bother trying to hurt her.

111
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:21.560
<v Speaker 1>It was wonderful And what a sweet kid. She's got

112
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:24.639
<v Speaker 1>my temper, though not crazy like me, but she when

113
00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:28.279
<v Speaker 1>she don't like something, she'll tell you right off, bone bang, no,

114
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:35.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, and I admire that in her. She's not

115
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 1>like being Rosalie wills to just tell you what the

116
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:42.639
<v Speaker 1>fuck she thinks right away, cut to the chase. I

117
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:50.040
<v Speaker 1>like that. And anyhow, happy birthday to the little girl

118
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:56.279
<v Speaker 1>who's now a young woman. Christ fuck did that happen? Right? Unbelievable?

119
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Rock those necks right behind it, right behind there right.

120
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:07.639
<v Speaker 1>Some of you have written me in, texted me, or

121
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:10.240
<v Speaker 1>written on the Patreon page that the last week or

122
00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.560
<v Speaker 1>so of shows has been great. I don't know what

123
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:16.360
<v Speaker 1>the deal is, but my god, and I'm telling you guys,

124
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I think, honestly, I think the combination the exaltation and

125
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.319
<v Speaker 1>the depression of the Knicks winning a title after fifty

126
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>three years my Knicks, which I cried when I collapsed

127
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 1>on the floor and cried, and then Jack dying. It

128
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:40.000
<v Speaker 1>just brought something I don't know, brought something out of me,

129
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:41.799
<v Speaker 1>something new in me. I don't know what to say.

130
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:47.720
<v Speaker 1>I just I did feel different. And you know here

131
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:51.519
<v Speaker 1>we are speaking of Jack. Let me just you guys

132
00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:54.039
<v Speaker 1>never heard that. This is the last message I have

133
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:54.600
<v Speaker 1>from Jack.

134
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:55.080
<v Speaker 2>This was.

135
00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:59.919
<v Speaker 1>Well, the Knicks were about to win, and you wanted

136
00:08:59.919 --> 00:09:03.519
<v Speaker 1>to see me come over, not knowing that I wasn't

137
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:06.840
<v Speaker 1>in Chicago. But here's what it sounded like. If you

138
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:18.000
<v Speaker 1>don't mind, come on. Sorry, sorry, was it working? Hold on, God,

149
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:14.440
<v Speaker 1>going to go out there and take care of things,

150
00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:17.600
<v Speaker 1>et cetera. But yeah, a lot of relatives are coming

151
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 1>into Chicago flying it and it's going to be great. Sad, bittersweet,

152
00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:28.039
<v Speaker 1>but that's that's life. But I really think the combination

153
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:34.320
<v Speaker 1>of the NIXT winning and him dying it maybe maybe

154
00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:39.879
<v Speaker 1>brought something out in me that was dormant or it

155
00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:41.200
<v Speaker 1>just wasn't awakened yet.

156
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:41.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

157
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:46.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. So that kind of thing happens in life,

158
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:49.480
<v Speaker 1>and you've got to be there to be able to

159
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:53.399
<v Speaker 1>talk and talk through it. And I think I did

160
00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:56.120
<v Speaker 1>a decent job. I didn't collapse on you guys like

161
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:59.120
<v Speaker 1>I have in the past. I kind of kept it okay,

162
00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:05.480
<v Speaker 1>you know. But that's what's happening. And again keeping with

163
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>this new angle of just talking to you. Yeah, I

164
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:13.679
<v Speaker 1>could tell you about movie stars and shit, but sometimes

165
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I just want to talk. And maybe you're bored by this.

166
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Is it too much? I don't know. I mean, this

167
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:21.159
<v Speaker 1>is what I want to do for a couple of days,

168
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:27.039
<v Speaker 1>because there's other things that have happened with regard to

169
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:30.600
<v Speaker 1>death that you know, me and death. It takes a

170
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.120
<v Speaker 1>toll on me. It's just really it affects me a lot,

171
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:35.080
<v Speaker 1>especially when it comes to people I love it and

172
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:44.399
<v Speaker 1>Mayer and it's happened a lot. But John Cena is

173
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:48.960
<v Speaker 1>not dead. Some might say, unfortunately. I don't care much

174
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:53.879
<v Speaker 1>for the guy. He's a shit actor, professional wrestler, whatever,

175
00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:58.559
<v Speaker 1>who get you know what? I can't know whatever. But

176
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:03.320
<v Speaker 1>he was gone bold like a lot of men, and

177
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:05.720
<v Speaker 1>he decided to do something about it. There's a big

178
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:12.000
<v Speaker 1>alarming story about him posing with a picture with his

179
00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:16.720
<v Speaker 1>head bold because he's with his hair transplant. Guy that

180
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:20.879
<v Speaker 1>did what they did and fixed his hairline or fixed everything.

181
00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:24.159
<v Speaker 1>They gave him new hair. And this is the way

182
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:27.759
<v Speaker 1>this guy talks. I want to scream. He says that

183
00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>people during the wrestling matress would yell at him and

184
00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:33.240
<v Speaker 1>make fun of his hair, and he said, that's what

185
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:36.399
<v Speaker 1>pushed me into going and see what my options were.

186
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:43.159
<v Speaker 1>I now have a routine red light therapy, pinoxidil Votamin's shampoo.

187
00:12:44.080 --> 00:12:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Everybody uses fucking shampoo. Stop with the shampoo in condition.

188
00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:52.440
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing to get your hair back. But you got

189
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:55.159
<v Speaker 1>a hair transplant last winter, that'll do it right there.

190
00:12:55.679 --> 00:13:00.519
<v Speaker 1>Fucking shampoo and Cane. Oh really, you're eating carrots? She doing?

191
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Just tell the truth. You got a head transplant. I don't.

192
00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:08.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't like the guy. I know from people who

193
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:11.720
<v Speaker 1>know him and have been around him. And listen, if

194
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:14.000
<v Speaker 1>you want to cheer your wife, go ahead, I'm gonna

195
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:16.159
<v Speaker 1>condemn you for it. You've got your own wife. Whatever.

196
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, he very famous for being overseas with these

197
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:23.440
<v Speaker 1>wrestling matches and just tagging so many women in his

198
00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:28.240
<v Speaker 1>trailer camp or whatever you want to call it. Everybody

199
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:30.679
<v Speaker 1>is going a work with John Cena knows that that's

200
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:36.399
<v Speaker 1>what he likes to do. I mean, you know, these

201
00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:39.879
<v Speaker 1>people all act like they're so superior. Remember he apologized

202
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:42.600
<v Speaker 1>in Mandarin because of something he said. What a fucking

203
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:48.679
<v Speaker 1>chirk off apologizing in Mandarin to to make sure that

204
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:51.879
<v Speaker 1>Chinese people know that you're very upset for yourself. I'm

205
00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:56.639
<v Speaker 1>so sorry. Let me bow down to the master makes

206
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:00.759
<v Speaker 1>me sick. And yet I'll watch movie with him in

207
00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:02.120
<v Speaker 1>it once in a while, but I don't like it.

208
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:09.320
<v Speaker 1>I hate it going in unbelievable. The other story I

209
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:13.279
<v Speaker 1>picked up today, Ariana Grande is rescheduling three of her

210
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:16.279
<v Speaker 1>upcoming shows on her tour. I was gonna say this

211
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 1>about a week ago, when her tour began, maybe ten

212
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:22.679
<v Speaker 1>days ago, I was gonna tell you guys, she's not

213
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 1>gonna finish this tour. She's eighty five fucking pounds. She's

214
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:27.960
<v Speaker 1>a little wisp of a nothing of a girl. And

215
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I like her. I think she's a cutie pie. Wait,

216
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:33.639
<v Speaker 1>she looks like she's in sixth grades. I don't. I'm

217
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:36.320
<v Speaker 1>not turned on by her, but I like her comedy,

218
00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:39.320
<v Speaker 1>comedic timing. I like a little dim bulls. There's a

219
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:41.279
<v Speaker 1>lot I like about it, and what a great voice.

220
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:46.080
<v Speaker 1>But she's an asshole and she's you know, she's eighty

221
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.000
<v Speaker 1>five pounds. She's not strong enough to tour the rest

222
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:52.879
<v Speaker 1>of the way. So I didn't say it to you guys,

223
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:55.919
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, God, damn it. And today or yesterday,

224
00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:58.759
<v Speaker 1>I read a story that she announced that she's moving

225
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:03.799
<v Speaker 1>her show in July twelve at New York's Barclay Center

226
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:08.279
<v Speaker 1>to July fourteenth, two days later, and Safe Things happening

227
00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:12.840
<v Speaker 1>to two concerts in Boston at TV Garden from July

228
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:15.759
<v Speaker 1>twenty second to July twenty fourth. I don't know what's

229
00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:20.799
<v Speaker 1>going on. We're so sorry for these unfortunate scheduling changes.

230
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.200
<v Speaker 1>This is our best and safest option as these challenges

231
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:28.320
<v Speaker 1>with production have come to our attention. The utmost important

232
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.759
<v Speaker 1>thing to us is all is safety first and foremost,

233
00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:35.080
<v Speaker 1>and also making sure you all see this show how

234
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:38.440
<v Speaker 1>it's intended to run. Thank you so much if you're understanding,

235
00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:40.519
<v Speaker 1>and I cannot wait to see this is all. This

236
00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:44.320
<v Speaker 1>is a horseshit statement. Not once do anybody in her

237
00:15:44.440 --> 00:15:48.159
<v Speaker 1>camp or she say why the dates are moved. It's

238
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:54.279
<v Speaker 1>just a mystery. It's a mystery. What she's doing is

239
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:55.519
<v Speaker 1>mark my words.

240
00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:00.600
<v Speaker 3>This is a little bit of a you know, testing

241
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:05.440
<v Speaker 3>excuse to cover up or distract the fact that she's

242
00:16:05.559 --> 00:16:07.480
<v Speaker 3>not selling out anymore.

243
00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:11.960
<v Speaker 1>The arenas are not shocked full. You go to Kanye

244
00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>westconcert there, I mean it's gigantic. Every seat is filled,

245
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:24.120
<v Speaker 1>not with people like Arianna. No sorry sorry. So they

246
00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:27.279
<v Speaker 1>look at the I've said this before with other artists.

247
00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:30.919
<v Speaker 1>They look at their the map of the arena they're playing,

248
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:33.600
<v Speaker 1>and they go the blue dots are all the seats

249
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.039
<v Speaker 1>that are in bought. Yet, oh my god, I don't

250
00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:41.240
<v Speaker 1>want to perform for you two thousand people rather than

251
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:46.399
<v Speaker 1>eight thousand. It's just a. It's an ego thing. It's

252
00:16:46.440 --> 00:16:50.159
<v Speaker 1>happening to music acts and and people who have a bigger,

253
00:16:50.440 --> 00:16:55.960
<v Speaker 1>bigger catalogs than she does. But yeah, trust me, I

254
00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:58.840
<v Speaker 1>think it's supposed to I think a Torno September one.

255
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:03.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't think she's gonna get there. It's my spidy sense.

256
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:07.519
<v Speaker 1>I think she's too weak and fragile and frail I'll see.

257
00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:11.519
<v Speaker 1>I think Cyndia, Cyndia Cynthia Arrivo puts some kind of

258
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:14.839
<v Speaker 1>a crazy hex on her, curse on her because Arianna

259
00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:19.480
<v Speaker 1>didn't respond to the gay the gay. Uh you know

260
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:24.000
<v Speaker 1>the fact that Arriva wanted her so bad during the

261
00:17:24.079 --> 00:17:26.880
<v Speaker 1>two Wicked movies and they were close. But I think

262
00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Arena stepped on her brakes when when Arriva wanted to

263
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:35.000
<v Speaker 1>go a little further. No, no, no, I think she

264
00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:36.920
<v Speaker 1>put like some kind of hex on her. I mean,

265
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:40.440
<v Speaker 1>I know it's not real, but she's not going to finish,

266
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:45.720
<v Speaker 1>that's all. But there's so many, so many liars out there,

267
00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Angeline and Jolie another bull shotters And by the way,

268
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:52.200
<v Speaker 1>she's doing a no movie in for US's coming out.

269
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:54.960
<v Speaker 1>It looks good. I saw the trailer. Looks good. You know,

270
00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:59.559
<v Speaker 1>I still enjoy watching Angelina. You go back to mister

271
00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:04.720
<v Speaker 1>and missus Smith, my christ was that sexy. Not since

272
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:06.640
<v Speaker 1>then has she done a movie that she looked that good.

273
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.039
<v Speaker 1>But Angelina was tippy top for a long time. And

274
00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:14.160
<v Speaker 1>then she was exposed as being a brat and a

275
00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:17.480
<v Speaker 1>fraud and pain in the ass, and with the Sony

276
00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:23.119
<v Speaker 1>email chain, the controversy and everybody's emails got leaked and

277
00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:26.440
<v Speaker 1>the way they spoke about her, she had to go

278
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:30.119
<v Speaker 1>into hiding. We she had tens of millions of dollars

279
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:34.559
<v Speaker 1>and lived in a fucking chalet, so it didn't really

280
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:39.519
<v Speaker 1>hurt her while she raised those that brood of kids,

281
00:18:39.559 --> 00:18:44.559
<v Speaker 1>which I hate to say this, outside of Shiloh, they're

282
00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:47.000
<v Speaker 1>ugly kids. I know. I don't want to talk about

283
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:49.880
<v Speaker 1>people's kids. They're an ugly bunch of kids. It's an

284
00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:52.440
<v Speaker 1>ugly family, it really is. They don't talk to their father.

285
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:55.519
<v Speaker 1>They got rid of his name. Shiloh is the only

286
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:57.519
<v Speaker 1>one you look at to go, well, that's Angie and

287
00:18:57.599 --> 00:19:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Brad together. Wow, the rest them, fuck yourself. Maddox knocks

288
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:07.000
<v Speaker 1>all this horse shit get out of here. They look

289
00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:09.759
<v Speaker 1>at my ass, all of them, and they're nasty kids,

290
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:15.960
<v Speaker 1>and she's saying she hasn't dated anybody since she split

291
00:19:16.039 --> 00:19:21.960
<v Speaker 1>from Brad Pitt about ten years ago. Then the movie

292
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:27.000
<v Speaker 1>is called Qutoure. She plays a filmmaker who ends up

293
00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:31.039
<v Speaker 1>getting brets cancer while she's working at the Paris Fashion Week.

294
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:34.519
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe somebody wrote the script and somebody bought

295
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.440
<v Speaker 1>it and let it get made. But whatever, she looks good.

296
00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:43.200
<v Speaker 1>She looks good. I'll look forward to it. But she says,

297
00:19:44.440 --> 00:19:48.119
<v Speaker 1>to be candid. Nobody uses the word candid. If you

298
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:50.960
<v Speaker 1>hear that word, they're full of shit. To be honest

299
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:54.880
<v Speaker 1>or I bety? Yet? Can I be honest? Or better yet?

300
00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:59.319
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you something, but to be candid, go wrap

301
00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:03.039
<v Speaker 1>your ass for a flagpole. To be candid. Okay, I

302
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:05.599
<v Speaker 1>haven't dated since I divorced a decade ago. So I

303
00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:08.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of get in my head that that aspect of

304
00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:10.680
<v Speaker 1>me is not centered in my life. If i'm if

305
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:14.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm focusing on my children, my family. It took me

306
00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:19.240
<v Speaker 1>a second to kind of say, well, you know, I

307
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:21.519
<v Speaker 1>can love my daughter and be dedicated to my daughter,

308
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:24.200
<v Speaker 1>but also this woman, I need to be a certain woman.

309
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:26.599
<v Speaker 1>And she's just going on and on and talking shit

310
00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:31.680
<v Speaker 1>acting like she's never been. She didn't date, since I

311
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:37.519
<v Speaker 1>know for a fact there were there. She was flying

312
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:44.039
<v Speaker 1>men in with her private jet when she was lonely. Okay,

313
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:48.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe those aren't called dates technically, but she

314
00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:51.880
<v Speaker 1>didn't dry up and blow away in the wind. Angeline

315
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:54.960
<v Speaker 1>was getting satiated, if you know what I mean. It's

316
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:58.880
<v Speaker 1>all bullshit. I think in some way they're bringing me

317
00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>back to my old self, my kids, my desire for

318
00:21:01.480 --> 00:21:04.480
<v Speaker 1>them to have all the strength and openness and softness

319
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:07.400
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, because when you were fucking guys coming off

320
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:10.160
<v Speaker 1>the jet, they were too young to notice in your

321
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:14.839
<v Speaker 1>sixteen room mansions and you know, four kitchens and eighteen bathrooms.

322
00:21:16.359 --> 00:21:20.400
<v Speaker 1>It's just give me a fucking break. They just want

323
00:21:20.440 --> 00:21:22.680
<v Speaker 1>me to be mom. Yeah, I don't know, you're right,

324
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:26.119
<v Speaker 1>just want to be mom. She's so full of shit.

325
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:30.359
<v Speaker 1>But here's what I want to get to today, because

326
00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:34.920
<v Speaker 1>today's the thirtieth as I record this, and yesterday obviously

327
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:37.480
<v Speaker 1>it was the twenty ninth, and it skipped my mind.

328
00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:40.519
<v Speaker 1>Normally these kind of sentimental things don't, but it's skipped

329
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:46.720
<v Speaker 1>my mind that the great Robert Evans. His birthday was

330
00:21:46.799 --> 00:21:51.960
<v Speaker 1>June twenty ninth he would have been ninety six years old.

331
00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I saying that makes no sense to me. But this guy,

332
00:21:58.319 --> 00:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of you guys want to hear more about it.

333
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you've told me, tell me all Evan's stories.

334
00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you somem I don't know if you

335
00:22:05.519 --> 00:22:07.960
<v Speaker 1>know how he began his career, and it was in

336
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:11.799
<v Speaker 1>women's clothing. Him and his brother used to own Evan Piccollen,

337
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.279
<v Speaker 1>which was a big brand back in the sixties and seventies,

338
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:17.880
<v Speaker 1>even in the eighties, and that's how they made their money.

339
00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:23.519
<v Speaker 1>And then Bob had the better looks and just a

340
00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:29.519
<v Speaker 1>better looking guy than Charles. And he's at the Beverly

341
00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:34.119
<v Speaker 1>Hills Hotel pool one day, just hanging out and he

342
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:37.680
<v Speaker 1>gets spotted by the great Norma Shearer, who was a

343
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:42.559
<v Speaker 1>big actress, and she cast them to play her late husband,

344
00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:49.519
<v Speaker 1>who was the big movie mogul Irving Thalberg, and he

345
00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:54.279
<v Speaker 1>played a matador in the film of Ernest Hemingway's to

346
00:22:54.440 --> 00:22:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Sun Also Rises trained several months to become good at

347
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:05.119
<v Speaker 1>it and understand the talent behind it, and nobody liked it.

348
00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:09.359
<v Speaker 1>Nobody liked it. Ava Gardner, who he was banging at

349
00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:15.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty one, Tyrone power. Even Ernest Hemingway himself. They didn't

350
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.559
<v Speaker 1>like it. They all signed a letter saying Evans needs

351
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:20.480
<v Speaker 1>to be off this movie. He's not an actor. This

352
00:23:20.599 --> 00:23:31.200
<v Speaker 1>is ridiculous. And the great producer Darryl F. Zanak didn't

353
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:35.720
<v Speaker 1>fire Robert Evans. He stuck his ground, and he had

354
00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:38.559
<v Speaker 1>that megaphone that all the old timers used to use.

355
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:41.720
<v Speaker 1>And during a scene one day in the bull ring

356
00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:45.319
<v Speaker 1>and Evans is doing his thing, and I agree, he

357
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:47.359
<v Speaker 1>doesn't look like a bullfighter. But whatever. It was a

358
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:52.240
<v Speaker 1>long time ago. Daryl'sannak yelled out to everybody watching, all

359
00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:55.839
<v Speaker 1>the other co stars, the kid stays in the picture,

360
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and anybody doesn't like it can quit. Evans stays and

361
00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:05.039
<v Speaker 1>everything in his life changes. But what he wanted to

362
00:24:05.119 --> 00:24:08.759
<v Speaker 1>be was a producer. He loved the power that Darryl

363
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:12.119
<v Speaker 1>Zanac had. He wanted to be him. He didn't want

364
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:14.519
<v Speaker 1>to be himself. Evans wanted to be a producer, a

365
00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:19.200
<v Speaker 1>powerful producer, possibly a studiohead, but he wanted to be

366
00:24:19.319 --> 00:24:22.599
<v Speaker 1>the guy that makes the decisions, not the guy who

367
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:25.440
<v Speaker 1>has decisions made for him, which is how many of

368
00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:30.440
<v Speaker 1>us live our lives. And that's tiring, it's boring. It

369
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:35.759
<v Speaker 1>can be painful, pain in the ass. But yeah, there's

370
00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:37.960
<v Speaker 1>great stories about Evans. I mean I spent a lot

371
00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.839
<v Speaker 1>of time with them, and I posted a picture of

372
00:24:40.880 --> 00:24:43.880
<v Speaker 1>him the other day with him and his ex wife

373
00:24:43.960 --> 00:24:48.119
<v Speaker 1>Ali McGrath. They made a great baby. He's not a

374
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:51.839
<v Speaker 1>baby anymore, but Josh, their son. He used to always

375
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:54.519
<v Speaker 1>be at the house. Good kid. I'm not sure what

376
00:24:54.559 --> 00:24:56.400
<v Speaker 1>he's up to now. I think he was into movies

377
00:24:56.480 --> 00:24:58.519
<v Speaker 1>and doing something I haven't talked to me in years.

378
00:24:58.599 --> 00:25:02.119
<v Speaker 1>But it was such a different world. I mean, I'm

379
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:05.200
<v Speaker 1>a kid watching Love Story when the fuck was love Story?

380
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Evans produced Love Story Ryan O'Neil and Alan McGraw. Love

381
00:25:09.359 --> 00:25:12.079
<v Speaker 1>means never having to say you're sorry. What do you

382
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:14.640
<v Speaker 1>say about a twenty year old girl dies? I mean

383
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.200
<v Speaker 1>the poster alone was insane. Maybe we'll getting the age wrong,

384
00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:22.359
<v Speaker 1>but basically he sold the movie based on that quote,

385
00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:25.480
<v Speaker 1>what do you say about a twenty year old girl

386
00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:29.640
<v Speaker 1>who dies? Like I said, the age could be different,

387
00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:35.079
<v Speaker 1>I forget, but it caused such emotions around the country.

388
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Everybody had to see Love Story. Well do I begin

389
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:47.440
<v Speaker 1>to the other story? It was huge and that was

390
00:25:47.519 --> 00:25:55.519
<v Speaker 1>his wife until he was working incessantly and obsessively on

391
00:25:55.640 --> 00:26:00.440
<v Speaker 1>The Godfather, editing in his home, the same film room

392
00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:03.160
<v Speaker 1>project the room ice to sit in with him, Jack

393
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:05.759
<v Speaker 1>and Ware and all the other guys. And he got

394
00:26:05.960 --> 00:26:08.880
<v Speaker 1>very busy with that, and she was only shooting to

395
00:26:08.920 --> 00:26:14.200
<v Speaker 1>get away with Steve McQueen in Vegas and you know,

396
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:19.559
<v Speaker 1>forty five minute flight, three hour drive. And Alan mcgrow

397
00:26:19.599 --> 00:26:23.359
<v Speaker 1>told him, and she was a big model. She warned him,

398
00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:29.440
<v Speaker 1>don't let me be lonely, Evans, I can't be lonely.

399
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:34.359
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately, he was so obsessed with making the movie

400
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:38.559
<v Speaker 1>and getting it right because it's obviously the best movie

401
00:26:38.599 --> 00:26:41.640
<v Speaker 1>of all time, that she left him, and she shocked

402
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:46.039
<v Speaker 1>up with McQueen. Evans hated McQueen for that. Him and

403
00:26:46.079 --> 00:26:50.119
<v Speaker 1>Ally patch things up. You know, they always stayed clothes.

404
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 1>In fact, when I used to stay there, she'd come

405
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:55.079
<v Speaker 1>over whe her turkourse jewelry or rings or necklaces or

406
00:26:55.119 --> 00:26:57.400
<v Speaker 1>bracests and make sandwiches.

407
00:26:56.839 --> 00:26:59.359
<v Speaker 2>And billinis and we sit by the pool, and I'm

408
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.759
<v Speaker 2>going I remember sitting in my living room as a

409
00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:07.319
<v Speaker 2>kid and watching my sister's cry of a love story.

410
00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:11.079
<v Speaker 1>And now I'm with her, I'm with her and him, Oh,

411
00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:15.039
<v Speaker 1>my god, how could this happen to me? Those are

412
00:27:15.279 --> 00:27:19.400
<v Speaker 1>those are reasons why it wasn't always about money. I

413
00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:22.519
<v Speaker 1>didn't make millions of dollars. I mean, if you stretched

414
00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:24.400
<v Speaker 1>my life out across my whole career at Shore, but

415
00:27:24.759 --> 00:27:27.279
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't making a million two million a year. I

416
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:30.759
<v Speaker 1>was doing well and having fu having a ball, and

417
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:33.960
<v Speaker 1>meeting the world and shaking all my idols hands and

418
00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:37.319
<v Speaker 1>the movie stars and the beautiful women. The model that

419
00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:45.880
<v Speaker 1>was that was a cloud nine. And sometimes or most

420
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:48.759
<v Speaker 1>of the time, it was more about who did I

421
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:52.319
<v Speaker 1>just meet. I got to work with Stallone, I got

422
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:54.880
<v Speaker 1>to work at Gibson. These were like heroes of mine

423
00:27:54.920 --> 00:27:57.640
<v Speaker 1>as a kid, And you go, wow, wow, wow wow.

424
00:27:57.960 --> 00:28:01.640
<v Speaker 1>It's not all about money. It's not all about money.

425
00:28:02.319 --> 00:28:07.240
<v Speaker 1>It's just being around certain people you find enthralling and

426
00:28:08.599 --> 00:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>heavily dedicated to what their art is, and you can't

427
00:28:13.000 --> 00:28:17.279
<v Speaker 1>get enough of it. It sucks you in, it really did.

428
00:28:17.880 --> 00:28:20.319
<v Speaker 1>But man, what he did with Paramount Pictures. When he

429
00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:22.920
<v Speaker 1>got hired as the head of the studio. There were

430
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:28.759
<v Speaker 1>dead last Gulf and Western owned Paramount Pictures, and it

431
00:28:28.920 --> 00:28:33.920
<v Speaker 1>was failing shit movies. Come blow your horn like the

432
00:28:34.039 --> 00:28:36.279
<v Speaker 1>worst movies that nobody wanted. It was like the end

433
00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:40.039
<v Speaker 1>of musicals, and people didn't give a shit about movies

434
00:28:40.079 --> 00:28:45.680
<v Speaker 1>as much. And he reversed everything. Found Franciscoppolo, found Roman

435
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:49.759
<v Speaker 1>Polanski decided to go after writers and directors that nobody

436
00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:53.440
<v Speaker 1>really knew yet, and the result was Harold and Moored

437
00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Rosebery's Baby, the Godfather of Chinatown. It goes on and

438
00:28:56.839 --> 00:29:02.079
<v Speaker 1>on because he took a shot. He took a shot.

439
00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:10.119
<v Speaker 1>You gotta take a shot, even if it means your

440
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:13.119
<v Speaker 1>arm gets pulled out of its socket. You gotta try

441
00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>to jump and grab that next limb and climb up.

442
00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:18.759
<v Speaker 1>You'll get help. So I'm going to help you up there.

443
00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:25.400
<v Speaker 1>They won't step on your fingers. They want creative, dashing

444
00:29:25.799 --> 00:29:29.720
<v Speaker 1>types of people. And Evans was exactly that, even though

445
00:29:29.759 --> 00:29:31.640
<v Speaker 1>when I was with him. You know, I've told you

446
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:35.200
<v Speaker 1>these stories, he was getting all in his life. And

447
00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:43.519
<v Speaker 1>Evans the way he threw parties, beautiful candles, let up

448
00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:46.079
<v Speaker 1>the driveway in the backyard, that you lip his trees

449
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>to pull the fountain, candles on the floor, gorgeous, gorgeous,

450
00:29:50.880 --> 00:29:55.759
<v Speaker 1>And his thing was by forty people over so big

451
00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:58.880
<v Speaker 1>time people like I said, you know, the biggest movie stars,

452
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Robert Shapiro, Aroldo Rivera, Jackie has said, I mean everybody,

453
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:08.319
<v Speaker 1>anybody that was big and making noise would come and

454
00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Evans would take one trip around his yard and say

455
00:30:11.920 --> 00:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>hello to everybody. Can mahug, give me shake and m kiss.

456
00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Then he would retreat back to his bedroom and he

457
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:20.839
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't leave it. And when you were going to leave

458
00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:24.799
<v Speaker 1>the party, you went to his bedroom, pushed the door

459
00:30:24.839 --> 00:30:27.079
<v Speaker 1>up and hey kid, I'm gonna leave, Thank you so much,

460
00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:28.839
<v Speaker 1>and he would get out of bed. You canhg him

461
00:30:28.839 --> 00:30:32.359
<v Speaker 1>and kiss him. But that was his thing. One trip

462
00:30:32.440 --> 00:30:38.359
<v Speaker 1>around one that's it. And one night he had these

463
00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:43.519
<v Speaker 1>green crushed velvet not pants like a sweatpant kind of material,

464
00:30:43.519 --> 00:30:46.960
<v Speaker 1>but they would crushed velvet like, those are great pants.

465
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:50.839
<v Speaker 1>And he goes he had a houseboy named Rio, and

466
00:30:50.960 --> 00:30:54.359
<v Speaker 1>he used to bang REO's mother. Sorry to say it

467
00:30:54.440 --> 00:30:57.720
<v Speaker 1>so bluntly, but that's how Rio got the job. And

468
00:30:58.480 --> 00:31:01.960
<v Speaker 1>he goes, Real's mom, they're great to fly in. If

469
00:31:01.960 --> 00:31:03.720
<v Speaker 1>you get to an airplane, you want to be in

470
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:09.000
<v Speaker 1>pants like these, and those are amazing. Dropped them. Take them, kid,

471
00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:13.319
<v Speaker 1>what are you doing? Take the pants? They're yours kating

472
00:31:13.480 --> 00:31:16.839
<v Speaker 1>his pants god which I still had those, I don't

473
00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:21.319
<v Speaker 1>have them anymore. But I mean, I know there's a

474
00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:24.359
<v Speaker 1>discrepancy over the years of how much did he really

475
00:31:24.400 --> 00:31:27.039
<v Speaker 1>do with the Godfather? And did Francis couple and him

476
00:31:27.039 --> 00:31:29.119
<v Speaker 1>and fight? Yes, they did, tooth and nail, because when

477
00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:33.720
<v Speaker 1>you're making something that's so amazing, when you're really creating art,

478
00:31:34.279 --> 00:31:37.599
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna go toe to toe. I mean, me and

479
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.000
<v Speaker 1>my buddy made so be it. You know how many

480
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:43.599
<v Speaker 1>times we went out in the hallway and went chest

481
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:46.079
<v Speaker 1>to chest and grabbing him by the neck and he

482
00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:49.640
<v Speaker 1>shoving me. I mean, I can't even tell you why.

483
00:31:49.839 --> 00:31:53.240
<v Speaker 1>You just get so passionate about the story and the

484
00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:57.680
<v Speaker 1>casting and the production value and distribution that it takes

485
00:31:57.720 --> 00:32:02.000
<v Speaker 1>its toll. You go fucking bananas. He kissed the make up.

486
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:07.519
<v Speaker 1>But that's part of the art. If you don't have

487
00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:12.000
<v Speaker 1>that passion while you're making art, it's not art. It's horseshit.

488
00:32:12.720 --> 00:32:15.680
<v Speaker 1>If there's not people going chin to chin in the

489
00:32:15.799 --> 00:32:19.319
<v Speaker 1>back room, it ain't art. Man. I told you today

490
00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:24.559
<v Speaker 1>about Jaws. Robert Shaw drunken than a skunk. Richard Dreyfus

491
00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:30.599
<v Speaker 1>couldn't stand him, But what he produced. Come on, shocks

492
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:37.160
<v Speaker 1>are in the water. You heard it. It's amazing. Evans

493
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:41.359
<v Speaker 1>had his He had his particular way about the people.

494
00:32:41.400 --> 00:32:43.400
<v Speaker 1>He didn't like. He didn't like Robert Redford at all.

495
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:47.160
<v Speaker 1>He would die. Don't like red Rifford's overrated, an overrated schmuck.

496
00:32:47.480 --> 00:32:50.960
<v Speaker 1>What you mean, it's an overrated schmuck. Kind and tell

497
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:54.519
<v Speaker 1>me why I don't like him. I don't like his

498
00:32:55.160 --> 00:32:58.200
<v Speaker 1>He was makeup. He half a sissy. He would just go.

499
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:02.599
<v Speaker 1>He loved Pacino, love Nicholson, loved Baby obviously. But you

500
00:33:02.680 --> 00:33:08.119
<v Speaker 1>couldn't mention Robert rev around him is a plastic, plastic

501
00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:10.960
<v Speaker 1>sheen to him, kid, when he kisses a girl, I

502
00:33:11.000 --> 00:33:14.920
<v Speaker 1>think he's kissing himself, That's what I think. He was

503
00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:19.839
<v Speaker 1>too made up, too precise for Evans. And you know,

504
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:21.599
<v Speaker 1>Evans was a guy that went through hell. You know,

505
00:33:22.119 --> 00:33:25.960
<v Speaker 1>the cocaine addictions, the bankruptcy is the seven marriages, that

506
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:34.319
<v Speaker 1>the Cotton Club story, the cocaine. Everything was Roy. The

507
00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:37.279
<v Speaker 1>death of Roy Raydon, which I don't I've never talked

508
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:39.559
<v Speaker 1>to you guys about, but he was a big financier,

509
00:33:39.720 --> 00:33:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Roy Raiden. He was murdered back in the eighties, very

510
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:48.359
<v Speaker 1>suspicious circumstances. He disappeared. He was on a business there

511
00:33:48.440 --> 00:33:53.839
<v Speaker 1>in Beverly Hills. Couldn't find him anymore because they found

512
00:33:53.880 --> 00:33:56.240
<v Speaker 1>him in a riverbed in a different part of California.

513
00:33:57.480 --> 00:33:59.799
<v Speaker 1>And he was brand new in Hollywood, just got there.

514
00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:07.119
<v Speaker 1>He met Evans through evans drug dealer, okay, and he

515
00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:12.719
<v Speaker 1>was also banging this drug dealer, Karen Greenberger, and him

516
00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:16.800
<v Speaker 1>and Braydon hit it off, and they did. They had

517
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:19.239
<v Speaker 1>a great time together. But I don't know. They went

518
00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:23.519
<v Speaker 1>to work together on Cotton Club and it didn't work out,

519
00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:27.800
<v Speaker 1>and he ends up dead. And then someone throws a

520
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:31.280
<v Speaker 1>bunch of cocaine over Robert Evans's gate and it's on

521
00:34:31.400 --> 00:34:38.960
<v Speaker 1>his lawn and then suddenly he's up for cocaine conspiracy, distribution. Horrifying, horrible,

522
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:41.519
<v Speaker 1>And yet Evans did blow not in front of me,

523
00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:44.320
<v Speaker 1>but he did it. Nicholson did it in front of me.

524
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Evans wasn't doing it back, but he did it. He

525
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:52.079
<v Speaker 1>was younger, sure, crazy times crazy, but I loved it.

526
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:57.119
<v Speaker 1>And if you go back and look, I mean, I

527
00:34:57.159 --> 00:34:59.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you guys. I just saw the other day,

528
00:35:02.239 --> 00:35:05.880
<v Speaker 1>not a preview, but a little thing about the Godfather

529
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:09.719
<v Speaker 1>with you know Paccino and that famous scene where he's

530
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:13.440
<v Speaker 1>in the in the restaurant and he kills the cop

531
00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and he kills Salatso, the other mobster. Sorry if it's

532
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:19.719
<v Speaker 1>a spoiler alert, but it's been fucking fifty years. Get

533
00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:23.880
<v Speaker 1>with it, and you know Salatso and this is why,

534
00:35:24.119 --> 00:35:29.880
<v Speaker 1>this is why these movies are must see. He can't

535
00:35:32.280 --> 00:35:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Virgil Salaso was played by an Actronym al Lettieri died

536
00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:42.280
<v Speaker 1>after The Godfather was finished. Had a heart attack. I

537
00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:46.079
<v Speaker 1>think he even hit his head. Was a hemophiliac. Maybe

538
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:49.800
<v Speaker 1>that was Mo Green. Either way, he died forty seven

539
00:35:49.880 --> 00:35:54.440
<v Speaker 1>years old. And if you see him in The Godfather,

540
00:35:55.400 --> 00:35:58.599
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna get the taste of all the actors that

541
00:35:58.719 --> 00:36:02.840
<v Speaker 1>were in that movie and how perfectly precise and just

542
00:36:03.000 --> 00:36:06.280
<v Speaker 1>kind of off center they were to make you sit

543
00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:10.000
<v Speaker 1>up and look. You know, like listen, I'm gonna throw

544
00:36:10.039 --> 00:36:13.519
<v Speaker 1>a weird comparison here. Most of us love dogs, right,

545
00:36:13.559 --> 00:36:15.719
<v Speaker 1>we love it dog. What's better than a fucking dog?

546
00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Ricky Jervais always says, God's done nothing better than make

547
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:21.159
<v Speaker 1>a dog. The Dog's the best thing in the world.

548
00:36:21.320 --> 00:36:24.360
<v Speaker 1>A dog. It's God Spell back with dog. He's right.

549
00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:30.159
<v Speaker 1>They're everything. You see a dog, cute little pug, Pomeranian, pitbull,

550
00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:35.199
<v Speaker 1>fuck piples, whatever you like. She sews yr Key's beagles.

551
00:36:35.199 --> 00:36:39.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. And what a great dog, but you

552
00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:41.719
<v Speaker 1>know it gets more of your attention when you see

553
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:44.599
<v Speaker 1>a dog with three legs or a dog that's got

554
00:36:44.639 --> 00:36:46.840
<v Speaker 1>two wheels in the back instead of his hind legs.

555
00:36:47.079 --> 00:36:49.239
<v Speaker 1>It makes you sit up and look more. That's what

556
00:36:49.559 --> 00:36:52.039
<v Speaker 1>so many actors in The god No one's gonna ever

557
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:55.440
<v Speaker 1>tell you a metaphor like this. This is what why

558
00:36:55.960 --> 00:36:58.880
<v Speaker 1>On top of great writing, the Godfather is great because

559
00:36:59.000 --> 00:37:03.119
<v Speaker 1>everybody was kind of a little off. Not everybody, but

560
00:37:03.320 --> 00:37:05.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the character actors were like, can he

561
00:37:05.480 --> 00:37:09.079
<v Speaker 1>pull this off? Oh shit, he did? You have to watch?

562
00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:13.079
<v Speaker 1>And when you watch, you said, no, no, brilliant, brilliant.

563
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:16.360
<v Speaker 1>But these are guys that were just kind of I

564
00:37:16.519 --> 00:37:19.199
<v Speaker 1>druw comparisons to the Knicks. I made the comparison the

565
00:37:19.239 --> 00:37:22.440
<v Speaker 1>other day about broken sticks and twigs that don't mean

566
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:24.119
<v Speaker 1>the hill of beans, but you put them together and

567
00:37:24.199 --> 00:37:27.800
<v Speaker 1>make a nest and they'll keep a bird alive and

568
00:37:27.880 --> 00:37:31.239
<v Speaker 1>the eggs alive. And that's what The Godfather was like

569
00:37:31.320 --> 00:37:35.039
<v Speaker 1>to me. A lot of broken Sticks that didn't necessarily

570
00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:39.639
<v Speaker 1>go on to work many many, many more years. Some

571
00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:44.400
<v Speaker 1>of them obviously did, Keaton, Cohn, Paccino, you know, of course,

572
00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:49.880
<v Speaker 1>many several of us. But the point is, where did

573
00:37:50.039 --> 00:37:53.639
<v Speaker 1>Appalonia go? Where did Frankie five Angels go? Where did

574
00:37:53.719 --> 00:37:56.880
<v Speaker 1>Mo Green go? Where did Alatieri go? Like these guys

575
00:37:56.920 --> 00:38:01.119
<v Speaker 1>are Luca Brozi, where did they go? So integral to

576
00:38:01.239 --> 00:38:06.119
<v Speaker 1>the best plot of the best movie ever made, gone

577
00:38:08.079 --> 00:38:12.000
<v Speaker 1>not dead, just moved on trying to find more work.

578
00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:16.880
<v Speaker 1>But because of their ability to take themselves not too

579
00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:20.800
<v Speaker 1>seriously and read words off the page and deliver it

580
00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:23.559
<v Speaker 1>in a way that only they could. It's a lot

581
00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:30.320
<v Speaker 1>of what made that those two movies tremendous. So the siery,

582
00:38:30.440 --> 00:38:31.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you remember, it's a lot so in

583
00:38:32.159 --> 00:38:37.440
<v Speaker 1>the restaurant, big, big heavy eyes, you know, thick, resounding voice.

584
00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:43.320
<v Speaker 1>And he did something that I failed to do when

585
00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:47.280
<v Speaker 1>I did the play at college, when I played Appacino's

586
00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:52.199
<v Speaker 1>role in The Indian Monster Bronx. I didn't stay calm

587
00:38:52.559 --> 00:38:56.920
<v Speaker 1>long enough. I reacted and put my hands on the

588
00:38:57.000 --> 00:39:01.159
<v Speaker 1>guy we were terrorizing. And once you do that, you're terrorizing.

589
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Can can look you up and say well, that didn't

590
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:09.239
<v Speaker 1>hurt me. I'm not worried about this fucking guy. But

591
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:12.760
<v Speaker 1>if you don't touch somebody, or even better, like Molon Brando,

592
00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:16.599
<v Speaker 1>if you take dust off their shoulder or pick piece

593
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:19.880
<v Speaker 1>of lint off their pants, suddenly you become a monster.

594
00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:24.199
<v Speaker 1>You become scaryself. An Altieri, who I don't even know

595
00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:30.079
<v Speaker 1>what other movies he was in. That calm, that dangerous calm,

596
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:36.039
<v Speaker 1>dead calm I've called a tiger calm. It's my own phrase.

597
00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:40.239
<v Speaker 1>That's what made his work tremendous. And maybe some of

598
00:39:40.320 --> 00:39:42.840
<v Speaker 1>you going, who the fuck's Alatari? Look at the guy?

599
00:39:43.239 --> 00:39:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Look who played virgils Lotso he came to Michael Corleone

600
00:39:48.480 --> 00:39:51.719
<v Speaker 1>because he wanted to get in business with his family.

601
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:56.639
<v Speaker 1>He wanted the politicians that Malon Brando out of his pocket.

602
00:39:56.960 --> 00:39:59.519
<v Speaker 1>He wanted to sell drugs, you know, he just wanted

603
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:03.239
<v Speaker 1>to protect and a bigger army around him, and Brando

604
00:40:03.320 --> 00:40:07.840
<v Speaker 1>turned them down. And then Brando got shot, didn't die,

605
00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:10.519
<v Speaker 1>but they put five or six bullets in them at

606
00:40:10.559 --> 00:40:13.480
<v Speaker 1>a fruit stand. And now al Pacino, who was a

607
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:21.559
<v Speaker 1>nice kid, good kid, married the kay war veteran, becomes

608
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:25.760
<v Speaker 1>the tough guy in the family and he's at the

609
00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:30.360
<v Speaker 1>at the restaurant and he's with the cop and Salatso,

610
00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:33.519
<v Speaker 1>and Salatso's talking in Sicilian to Michael and the cop

611
00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:39.719
<v Speaker 1>has no ideas an Irish cop McCluskey, and it's a

612
00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:43.480
<v Speaker 1>great scene and they're talking privately and basically it's a

613
00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:46.199
<v Speaker 1>lots of saying, I'm sick of what happened to your father.

614
00:40:46.320 --> 00:40:48.079
<v Speaker 1>It makes me sick. We need to be together, we

615
00:40:48.159 --> 00:40:50.960
<v Speaker 1>need to work together. Ba ba bah. And Michael's just listening.

616
00:40:51.559 --> 00:40:54.400
<v Speaker 1>He says, I got to go to the restroom good,

617
00:40:55.639 --> 00:40:57.599
<v Speaker 1>and he that's where he pulls the gun out from

618
00:40:57.639 --> 00:41:01.760
<v Speaker 1>behind the toilet tank, which when I lived in New York,

619
00:41:01.840 --> 00:41:04.199
<v Speaker 1>there were several restaurants that had that toilet tank the

620
00:41:04.360 --> 00:41:07.320
<v Speaker 1>chain up top. The toilet bowl was on the bottom,

621
00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:10.119
<v Speaker 1>but the tank was up top by the ceiling and

622
00:41:10.239 --> 00:41:15.039
<v Speaker 1>you pull the chain, and that's where they planted a

623
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:18.679
<v Speaker 1>gun for Michael to shoot these two guys. And when

624
00:41:18.719 --> 00:41:21.480
<v Speaker 1>he comes out and does it, it's one of the

625
00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:25.639
<v Speaker 1>best moments of all time. But the point is Salutso

626
00:41:25.719 --> 00:41:28.280
<v Speaker 1>they called him the Turk. He was good with a knife.

627
00:41:30.559 --> 00:41:32.519
<v Speaker 1>When he sits there and looks at Michael, you got

628
00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to what He's still as great as Piccino was. Look

629
00:41:36.360 --> 00:41:44.719
<v Speaker 1>at al the TIERI never explodes, He's always calculating. He's

630
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:50.559
<v Speaker 1>sitting across is a powerful guy, and he knows that

631
00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:55.960
<v Speaker 1>violence is just another cost of doing business. And you

632
00:41:56.000 --> 00:41:57.760
<v Speaker 1>look at his face and you're not sure what the

633
00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:02.960
<v Speaker 1>hell is going to do next. You know. That's why

634
00:42:03.039 --> 00:42:08.280
<v Speaker 1>it's so frightening, because most of us, when we think

635
00:42:08.400 --> 00:42:12.679
<v Speaker 1>we're being terrifying to people, we think it's because we

636
00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:16.599
<v Speaker 1>have a lot of noise and we're loud. And I'm

637
00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:23.079
<v Speaker 1>guilty of this, But what's scary is control. My buddy

638
00:42:23.159 --> 00:42:26.119
<v Speaker 1>Kenny can go loud like me, but he also has

639
00:42:26.199 --> 00:42:30.079
<v Speaker 1>this gear where he's just in control. My nephew Joey

640
00:42:31.159 --> 00:42:34.840
<v Speaker 1>never pops off, never goes off control. He was the

641
00:42:34.920 --> 00:42:37.000
<v Speaker 1>catcher in high school, the quarterback in high school, and

642
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:39.679
<v Speaker 1>now was his sheriff. I was a crazy maniac. I'm

643
00:42:39.719 --> 00:42:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Sonny Coleoni. He's Michael. He just has a measured calm

644
00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:47.360
<v Speaker 1>about him. Jiu jitsu black belt, They'll kill you in

645
00:42:47.400 --> 00:42:50.960
<v Speaker 1>a minute, doesn't have to be loud. And that was

646
00:42:51.039 --> 00:42:52.599
<v Speaker 1>a lot so And that's why you look at a

647
00:42:52.639 --> 00:42:56.000
<v Speaker 1>guy like Robert Evans making this movie or help editing it.

648
00:42:56.639 --> 00:42:58.519
<v Speaker 1>How do you leave it? It's just you know, you're

649
00:42:58.559 --> 00:43:02.239
<v Speaker 1>working on a masterpiece. And unfortunately, if you're married to

650
00:43:02.280 --> 00:43:04.440
<v Speaker 1>a woman like Ali McGrath and she's on a film

651
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.440
<v Speaker 1>set with a big movie star, you might stand the

652
00:43:07.519 --> 00:43:11.960
<v Speaker 1>chance of losing her. But he had to do what

653
00:43:12.039 --> 00:43:16.920
<v Speaker 1>he had to do. And if that meant sitting in

654
00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:19.840
<v Speaker 1>his projection room or talking to Francis for Copla or

655
00:43:19.920 --> 00:43:23.039
<v Speaker 1>Al Ruddy or whatever the fuck, it meant, we've got

656
00:43:23.119 --> 00:43:28.079
<v Speaker 1>to make this masterpiece. Everything else can wait. And the

657
00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:30.559
<v Speaker 1>older you get, you know what, people don't always think

658
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:35.039
<v Speaker 1>they can wait forever. People have her own schedules, their

659
00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:38.400
<v Speaker 1>own things they want to do. And it's happened to

660
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:40.559
<v Speaker 1>me when you think everything's great and they say, no,

661
00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:45.239
<v Speaker 1>I gotta go. What do you mean it's not working

662
00:43:45.320 --> 00:43:50.000
<v Speaker 1>no more? The fizz went flat. I just got to

663
00:43:50.039 --> 00:43:54.599
<v Speaker 1>finish this book. It's okay, It's okay, I gotta go.

664
00:43:56.679 --> 00:44:02.639
<v Speaker 1>But confidence that all the theary plays in that movie

665
00:44:03.039 --> 00:44:09.360
<v Speaker 1>is beautiful, careful, patient, always respectful. But you know he's

666
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:12.679
<v Speaker 1>trying to push around Michael Corleon doesn't think this kid

667
00:44:13.360 --> 00:44:16.159
<v Speaker 1>has the balls to do anything violent? Oh boy? But

668
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:21.000
<v Speaker 1>does he ever? In fact, one scene time that scene

669
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:23.559
<v Speaker 1>he tells him, well that he doesn't tell him, but

670
00:44:23.599 --> 00:44:27.599
<v Speaker 1>he's saying basically, he's saying, I know this world better

671
00:44:27.639 --> 00:44:30.599
<v Speaker 1>than you do, kid, and by the time you understand

672
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:34.199
<v Speaker 1>the rules, I'm going to own the room. Right. It's

673
00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:36.039
<v Speaker 1>not his line, but it's what is in his head.

674
00:44:36.719 --> 00:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>You could read into it. And then he goes to

675
00:44:39.039 --> 00:44:41.159
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom, gets the gun and blows both their fucking

676
00:44:41.199 --> 00:44:45.199
<v Speaker 1>heads off. It's fantastic, fantastic. But you go back and

677
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:47.119
<v Speaker 1>look at that movie and you see what goes on

678
00:44:47.199 --> 00:44:51.559
<v Speaker 1>in that scene. I don't know how do you pull

679
00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:55.119
<v Speaker 1>a studio head or a producer away from that when

680
00:44:55.119 --> 00:44:57.159
<v Speaker 1>they're trying to complete the masterpiece, trying to put the

681
00:44:57.199 --> 00:45:01.440
<v Speaker 1>finishing touches on a painting, the last chip a marble

682
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:04.679
<v Speaker 1>of a statue, the last few words of a book.

683
00:45:06.039 --> 00:45:08.519
<v Speaker 1>If you're a real artist, you can't walk away from it.

684
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:11.760
<v Speaker 1>You just can't. And everybody around you asked to understand,

685
00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:14.519
<v Speaker 1>this is what I do. I make art. I make

686
00:45:14.599 --> 00:45:19.480
<v Speaker 1>beautiful things. And what he made, what Evans helped make,

687
00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:23.199
<v Speaker 1>remains to this day, and what al Laterry did, and

688
00:45:23.360 --> 00:45:26.159
<v Speaker 1>so many other actors in that movie who are no

689
00:45:26.239 --> 00:45:31.719
<v Speaker 1>longer with us. They're still here. They stayed behind because

690
00:45:31.760 --> 00:45:36.480
<v Speaker 1>of their work, their dedication, their talent, their ability. It's

691
00:45:36.519 --> 00:45:39.440
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful thing. It's it's it's it's you know. I

692
00:45:39.480 --> 00:45:42.000
<v Speaker 1>could bitch about movies and bitch about Hollyer, but my god,

693
00:45:42.039 --> 00:45:48.360
<v Speaker 1>when they get something right, it's glorious. Michael used to

694
00:45:48.440 --> 00:45:54.519
<v Speaker 1>be everything. There are different, you know, different incarnations, life

695
00:45:54.599 --> 00:45:59.719
<v Speaker 1>and businesses change, countries change people, change style, fashion, influenza,

696
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:03.559
<v Speaker 1>old changes, TikTok is bigger than Hollywood. Now, what the

697
00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:08.960
<v Speaker 1>fuck's aw that coming? But man, you get a chance,

698
00:46:10.119 --> 00:46:13.159
<v Speaker 1>go look at that work. If you haven't seen the

699
00:46:13.239 --> 00:46:15.880
<v Speaker 1>movie yet, I don't know what the hell is wrong

700
00:46:15.920 --> 00:46:20.000
<v Speaker 1>with you, But go see it. See what he was

701
00:46:20.079 --> 00:46:25.159
<v Speaker 1>responsible for producing and what he's left the world. And

702
00:46:25.280 --> 00:46:27.519
<v Speaker 1>I wish him happy birthday. I'm sorry it's not here,

703
00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:30.039
<v Speaker 1>and I love the guy, and I'll believe you this

704
00:46:30.159 --> 00:46:32.400
<v Speaker 1>story in the way out. I've said it years ago.

705
00:46:32.480 --> 00:46:36.800
<v Speaker 1>But I went to a party for some playboy playmate

706
00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:41.000
<v Speaker 1>in the Hollywood Hills one night and Evans had already

707
00:46:41.039 --> 00:46:46.920
<v Speaker 1>suffered a stroke. He was with the director of Wes Craven,

708
00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:49.840
<v Speaker 1>who was pitching of a movie, and during dinner Evans

709
00:46:49.920 --> 00:46:52.480
<v Speaker 1>on a stroke. I think you had two, one after

710
00:46:52.559 --> 00:46:56.559
<v Speaker 1>the other. And Craven is like beside himself, Bob, Bob,

711
00:46:57.280 --> 00:47:00.679
<v Speaker 1>and he said, I told you it's always interesting here,

712
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:03.400
<v Speaker 1>It's always interesting. He could barely move his mouth, but

713
00:47:03.480 --> 00:47:10.440
<v Speaker 1>he got that out. Fucking superstar. But I'm at this party,

714
00:47:11.440 --> 00:47:14.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm alone, and I go in the backyard. There's a

715
00:47:14.719 --> 00:47:17.400
<v Speaker 1>nice pool, it's lit up. It's a kidney shaped pool,

716
00:47:17.480 --> 00:47:22.679
<v Speaker 1>and beautiful girls, typical guys, Hollywood guys all day. And

717
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I see in the corner Bob Evans, he's alone. I

718
00:47:29.079 --> 00:47:32.000
<v Speaker 1>made a beelock kid. How you doing, a kid? What's

719
00:47:32.039 --> 00:47:34.000
<v Speaker 1>going on? No? I just wanted to say a lot

720
00:47:34.039 --> 00:47:36.000
<v Speaker 1>of some people, how are you? I'm great? What do

721
00:47:36.039 --> 00:47:38.400
<v Speaker 1>you want to do? He is still your favorite? Can

722
00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:40.280
<v Speaker 1>you hold my arm and take me into the house?

723
00:47:40.280 --> 00:47:42.679
<v Speaker 1>And said, of course, of course, of course. Because he

724
00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:46.559
<v Speaker 1>wasn't feeling good, grandmother elbow walk into the kitchen. As

725
00:47:46.639 --> 00:47:50.079
<v Speaker 1>we're getting into the kitchen, these two hot girls come by,

726
00:47:51.599 --> 00:47:55.639
<v Speaker 1>and I know him. Why don't you go over there

727
00:47:55.639 --> 00:47:57.840
<v Speaker 1>and try to get him back to Woodland? Woodland was

728
00:47:57.880 --> 00:48:00.519
<v Speaker 1>his address. That was a straight Woodland. See if they

729
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:02.119
<v Speaker 1>want to come back to Woodland with you, and I

730
00:48:03.199 --> 00:48:05.400
<v Speaker 1>I said, okay, kid, I know they wouldn't want to go.

731
00:48:06.360 --> 00:48:09.119
<v Speaker 1>He was a shell of his former self. I know,

732
00:48:09.320 --> 00:48:12.320
<v Speaker 1>but that's the pride some old men still have. They

733
00:48:12.400 --> 00:48:15.000
<v Speaker 1>still want to take down the young antelope, the old lions.

734
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:19.719
<v Speaker 1>I said, I'll love I'll ask them, Bob, thanks kid,

735
00:48:20.519 --> 00:48:23.880
<v Speaker 1>what fun we to have? I know? So I leave

736
00:48:23.960 --> 00:48:25.400
<v Speaker 1>him alone for a minute. I go to the girls,

737
00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:28.079
<v Speaker 1>say listen. I says, look, I don't want to be

738
00:48:28.920 --> 00:48:32.039
<v Speaker 1>out of turn here, but this is my buddy, Robert Evans,

739
00:48:32.119 --> 00:48:36.559
<v Speaker 1>a great producer. He wants us to take you back

740
00:48:36.599 --> 00:48:39.239
<v Speaker 1>to his house. Don't get mad at me. I know

741
00:48:39.320 --> 00:48:41.280
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to come. I'm just laying out for you.

742
00:48:41.440 --> 00:48:43.400
<v Speaker 1>So I can go back to them and say, you

743
00:48:43.559 --> 00:48:48.159
<v Speaker 1>politely declined, Oh that's so cute, but yeah, we can't go.

744
00:48:48.400 --> 00:48:53.119
<v Speaker 1>I understand. Don't worry. Guys, turn around what they say?

745
00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:58.199
<v Speaker 1>They got some of the place to go, two cunts.

746
