00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:03.799
<v Speaker 1>Hey, everybody, aj Ben's are here with fame? Is it? Bitch?

2
00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:08.199
<v Speaker 1>This is your daily Unfiltered podcast for November twenty second,

3
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:13.279
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four. One two two, two oh two four wow,

4
00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:17.800
<v Speaker 1>three four five twos. It's a full house of twos,

5
00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:22.120
<v Speaker 1>which is impossible but looks pretty cool. What's going on again?

6
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:26.440
<v Speaker 1>It's Friday, and I gotta tell you, I'm very pissed

7
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:31.480
<v Speaker 1>off about this whole situation with Overcast not getting the

8
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:35.439
<v Speaker 1>Patreon show to you folks, and it's infuriating because I

9
00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:37.920
<v Speaker 1>can't reach all of you and speak to you personally.

10
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:39.960
<v Speaker 1>All I can do is leave a message on the

11
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Patreon app to tell you to listen to the show

12
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:46.840
<v Speaker 1>on Patreon, do not go to Overcast. I can put

13
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>a message on my Facebook page, on my podcast obsessed page,

14
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:52.719
<v Speaker 1>but there are people who listen who aren't involved with

15
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:57.039
<v Speaker 1>Facebook or go into the Patreon app to write, so

16
00:00:57.079 --> 00:00:59.359
<v Speaker 1>I hope they don't split and think that the show's over.

17
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I hope they write me. If you know anybody who's

18
00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.560
<v Speaker 1>having problems not getting the show, please let them know

19
00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>what the deal is. Stay the fuck away from Overcast.

20
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:11.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't get it. Overcast is still getting the free

21
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:15.760
<v Speaker 1>shows out but not the Patreon shows. So Adavino put

22
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:18.319
<v Speaker 1>some instructions up. Go to the Patreon page to look

23
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:23.319
<v Speaker 1>at it. I left the message otherwise I want to

24
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:25.959
<v Speaker 1>climb a tower with a rifle right now where the

25
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Overcast offices are. This is pissed me off, just suddenly.

26
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:33.560
<v Speaker 1>This is what I can't stand, Like, you know, who

27
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>do you argue with Overcast? Where do you go? Who

28
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>do you call? As if they answer phones over there?

29
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.159
<v Speaker 1>It's like today I want to get so I want

30
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 1>to strangle somebody. I'm in a good mood. Things have

31
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:48.000
<v Speaker 1>about a good day, but yet something like this happens,

32
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>and I want to scream. You know, my credit's not

33
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:53.719
<v Speaker 1>the best credit, right so I've been fixing. Even the

34
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>guy that got me this apartment goes, yeah, your credit's

35
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.400
<v Speaker 1>not a big deal. It's you know, some credit card

36
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.319
<v Speaker 1>depth and you don't know ten of thousands of I said,

37
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's so stupid. You know, I got a

38
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.599
<v Speaker 1>few credit cards to make my credit better. I pay

39
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:08.680
<v Speaker 1>them on time. I never never go over the limit.

40
00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:13.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm never late, and he guys, I know. So I

41
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.800
<v Speaker 1>always get these messages from credit karma. I get these

42
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.159
<v Speaker 1>emails AJ, your credit your numbers have gone up, and

43
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I'll check it. Oh, okay, it's up to blah blah blah.

44
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:26.159
<v Speaker 1>Oh I gained fifteen points. Then I get a message today, AJ,

45
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:29.639
<v Speaker 1>your credit took your hit. Okay, why is that? I

46
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:34.000
<v Speaker 1>look because a credit card company that they told me

47
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 1>to look at to make my credit better. They offered me, hey,

48
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:40.439
<v Speaker 1>you should look at these credit cards. This has been

49
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:42.520
<v Speaker 1>good for your credit. So I applied for one and

50
00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:45.919
<v Speaker 1>I get it. I haven't even used it yet, and

51
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:48.960
<v Speaker 1>they took fifty points off my credit score because it

52
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.039
<v Speaker 1>appears you've opened a credit card. Yeah, you told me

53
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:56.360
<v Speaker 1>to open one. You mother fifty points for opening a

54
00:02:56.479 --> 00:03:01.599
<v Speaker 1>credit fifty not five. It's just that's the joke again.

55
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you know anybody that works for credit Karma? Other

56
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:09.240
<v Speaker 1>people there are just robots. Speaking of robots, I know

57
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:13.520
<v Speaker 1>people have different feelings about this. I'm talking about Matt Gates.

58
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Don't worry, it's not a political show. I got a

59
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.080
<v Speaker 1>great Denzel Washington story to tell you a personal story.

60
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:20.960
<v Speaker 1>But I told you four or five days ago, Matt

61
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Gates would not make it. He would not become Attorney general.

62
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>It's a stupid idea there were those of you out

63
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:29.159
<v Speaker 1>there who thinking this is a great He's gonna kill

64
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.439
<v Speaker 1>for Trump, he's such a loyalist. Yeah, okay, there are

65
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:34.439
<v Speaker 1>plenty of people who are loyal to Trump who don't

66
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:38.759
<v Speaker 1>do good things, who fuck up. Okay, his lawyer number

67
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>one was real loyalty, real loyal So is Scarramucci a

68
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:46.439
<v Speaker 1>loyalist to Trump. They're assholes. Matt Gates is an asshole

69
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:49.879
<v Speaker 1>and a laos And I told you then on Politics

70
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:52.680
<v Speaker 1>a bitch, and I mentioned it briefly on Fame. If

71
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>you can't tell by looking at his face and watching

72
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 1>him in action, if you really don't, if you really

73
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:02.479
<v Speaker 1>don't believe that there's a cocaine kind of situation around

74
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:07.039
<v Speaker 1>him and younger girls, and him having a folder with

75
00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:09.639
<v Speaker 1>their names on it and showing some people of the

76
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.639
<v Speaker 1>girls he was with. He's told these stories to other

77
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>people on Capitol Hill. They find it disgusting. The guy's

78
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.959
<v Speaker 1>no good. But I still have people, Oh, you're wrong,

79
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you're wrong. I'm not wrong, I'm right, and do me

80
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.759
<v Speaker 1>a favor. I love you, guys, but some of you

81
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:30.199
<v Speaker 1>are still so fucking concerned about did you see who

82
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:34.879
<v Speaker 1>lost in fucking Colorado? Did you see this, gaya, this

83
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.319
<v Speaker 1>person's gonna lose this. It's like, hold it, hold it.

84
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Can we just relax? We just had the biggest political

85
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:46.839
<v Speaker 1>comeback story of our lives, possibly in American history. Our

86
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:49.319
<v Speaker 1>guy one the House of the Senate are going to

87
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:53.920
<v Speaker 1>be ours. It was a landslide. And you're still gonna

88
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:58.120
<v Speaker 1>complain and get worried about shit. Calm down. Let me

89
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:01.079
<v Speaker 1>fucking enjoy this. I don't want to go back to

90
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>being critical. Oh you see what happened to Carry Lake?

91
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't give it. Clearly something's wrong with Carrie Lake.

92
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Clearly she's not who she pretends to be. There's something

93
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.360
<v Speaker 1>about Carrie Lake that some people in that state know,

94
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:16.920
<v Speaker 1>and she can't get over the top. Is it always cheating?

95
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:20.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Two straight chances can't make it happen.

96
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:24.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. But I'm not gonna worry about those people.

97
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:27.000
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not gonna worry about Matt Gates and who's

98
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.399
<v Speaker 1>gonna come up behind him. But there was gonna be

99
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:35.399
<v Speaker 1>a very devastating congressional ethics report on him about drug

100
00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:38.560
<v Speaker 1>use and about sexual misconduct. That was always over his

101
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:40.720
<v Speaker 1>head and he knew it. And by the way, Another

102
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:46.240
<v Speaker 1>female witness said she saw this little sexual episode happened

103
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:48.879
<v Speaker 1>with her seventeen year old friend. She saw them both

104
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:53.720
<v Speaker 1>naked back in twenty seventeen at a big party they

105
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.480
<v Speaker 1>called a rager. You don't want to be tied to

106
00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:00.720
<v Speaker 1>parties that are called ragers, especially now with Diddy and

107
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:04.040
<v Speaker 1>the freak offs. People have a bad taste in their mouths.

108
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:07.319
<v Speaker 1>If you're partying and Matt Gates is young, He's allowed

109
00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:09.959
<v Speaker 1>to go to parties, he's allowed to have sex with women,

110
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:13.040
<v Speaker 1>but not seventeen year olds. And if there's any drug use,

111
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:19.560
<v Speaker 1>calm down. I got a great drug story. Excuse me

112
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:23.600
<v Speaker 1>that water went down the road part great Denzel Washington

113
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>drug story. I wouldn't tell this except Denzel was talking

114
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:29.240
<v Speaker 1>about how he's straight and how he was in trouble

115
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:31.959
<v Speaker 1>for years with drugs and wine, and all right, that

116
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:34.839
<v Speaker 1>opened the door for me to talk and lets me

117
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:37.639
<v Speaker 1>have another chapter in my book, which, believe it or not,

118
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:42.439
<v Speaker 1>I am putting together, but uh, not nearly quick enough.

119
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:47.600
<v Speaker 1>The other thing that got me pissed off today Jesse

120
00:06:47.800 --> 00:06:50.959
<v Speaker 1>Smolette and what the fuck are we doing? We all

121
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.879
<v Speaker 1>know the guy's guilty, we knew it. We knew it

122
00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:58.639
<v Speaker 1>when Kim Fox did all she could to overturn things

123
00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:02.720
<v Speaker 1>and get him out of jail. That frig face. Remember

124
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Kim Fox, how bad she was, Like Letitia James conjoined twin,

125
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I swear to God or separated at birth with the

126
00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:14.279
<v Speaker 1>Latitia James. But this is a joke, and it's such

127
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:16.839
<v Speaker 1>a joke that I don't even care. It doesn't even matter.

128
00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:19.720
<v Speaker 1>No one's gonna give a shit that. Does anybody think

129
00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:23.279
<v Speaker 1>Jesse Spilett was really innocent? I mean, you can watch

130
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the video of the two African guys who are supposedly

131
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:29.959
<v Speaker 1>the guys who put a hood over his head and

132
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:33.160
<v Speaker 1>started telling them, are you that faggot on him? Empire? Yeah,

133
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.560
<v Speaker 1>we Mega wear Mega. I forget the black guy's names

134
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:40.560
<v Speaker 1>that let's call him Bob loves Abashola. Two Nigerian guys

135
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:44.439
<v Speaker 1>who are gay half gay, who get massages with Jesse,

136
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.079
<v Speaker 1>get him drugs. He pays them for drugs. They are

137
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.560
<v Speaker 1>in cahoots. The guys came forward and told the truth

138
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 1>and now it's overturned. Listen, after all these years at

139
00:07:55.920 --> 00:08:01.800
<v Speaker 1>his core, we know Jesse Smilett is a sociopath. He'll

140
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:06.639
<v Speaker 1>never apologize for what happened. He's refused to acknowledge what

141
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:11.680
<v Speaker 1>he did and how sinful it was to basically turn

142
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Americans against each other for his gain, for his career,

143
00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:18.079
<v Speaker 1>to do better than to have a weekly part, a

144
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:22.519
<v Speaker 1>big part on a hit show. Now he wanted more.

145
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:26.680
<v Speaker 1>So we used white people and a fake lynching to

146
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:29.600
<v Speaker 1>get his way, and it didn't work, and now it works.

147
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:34.519
<v Speaker 1>Chicago's all fucked up, all sorts of fucked up. The

148
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:39.240
<v Speaker 1>guy's gaslighting Americans. He's gonna run around now streaming is innocent.

149
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:41.960
<v Speaker 1>I told you I was innocent. I told you. But

150
00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:45.399
<v Speaker 1>there are countless pieces of evidence against this asshole, this

151
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:51.600
<v Speaker 1>witness testimony. The guy's full of hatred. And don't forget

152
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris was the first one to jump up and

153
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:59.759
<v Speaker 1>say that it was a racial attack. She did all

154
00:08:59.799 --> 00:09:04.360
<v Speaker 1>she could to pit whites against black She tried Obama

155
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:10.279
<v Speaker 1>two point zero. Patrick Bett David is always on Instagram

156
00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and Facebook, what have you. The guy really made quite

157
00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>a name for himself as an interviewer. He mentioned something

158
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.639
<v Speaker 1>really profound and I think we think this, but to

159
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:26.799
<v Speaker 1>hear it said was interesting that Barack Obama is like done,

160
00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Speaker 1>He's done. You know if Kamala won, then obviously we

161
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:33.799
<v Speaker 1>would get another four years of Obama, maybe eight years.

162
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.919
<v Speaker 1>Who knew? We don't know. But after all that said

163
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:38.679
<v Speaker 1>and done.

164
00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:43.320
<v Speaker 2>He scolded people, he argued with people, he begged, he

165
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 2>begged America, he scolded young black man, and his words

166
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:49.000
<v Speaker 2>meant nothing.

167
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:53.679
<v Speaker 1>Wow, good good. That should put an end to him

168
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:56.679
<v Speaker 1>and an end to Michelle Obama running one day because

169
00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:01.919
<v Speaker 1>their words didn't mean jack shit. Don't ever forget that. Finally,

170
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:04.039
<v Speaker 1>before I launched it to my Denzel story, this is

171
00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:06.559
<v Speaker 1>not a story, just something that gets my goat. It

172
00:10:06.559 --> 00:10:10.720
<v Speaker 1>gets my goat. I listened to Joe Rogan often enough.

173
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:13.600
<v Speaker 1>I never listened to his fight shows or when he

174
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:15.559
<v Speaker 1>has these people from all sorts of life that I

175
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:17.480
<v Speaker 1>actually give a shit about. So and so is a

176
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:19.600
<v Speaker 1>cellular scientist at the universe. I don't want to hear

177
00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:24.840
<v Speaker 1>this guy talk. But actors, actresses, you know, leading people

178
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 1>of the world. Yeah, I'll check it out. So we've

179
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:31.360
<v Speaker 1>got Josh Brolin on. And by the way, Josh bro

180
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>here's what's happening with big podcasts. This is not good.

181
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>It's good when podcasts do things in their own lane

182
00:10:38.399 --> 00:10:40.840
<v Speaker 1>and their quirky lane, but now you've got a few

183
00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:44.879
<v Speaker 1>podcasts lined up as basically being a pit stop that

184
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:47.399
<v Speaker 1>all the late night shows used to be for people

185
00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:53.480
<v Speaker 1>pitching movies, pitching books, pitching TV series, pitching awards. Suddenly,

186
00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:56.639
<v Speaker 1>in the last week I heard Bob's and mechas on

187
00:10:56.799 --> 00:11:01.679
<v Speaker 1>three different podcasts. The director you know of Forrest Gump

188
00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:05.559
<v Speaker 1>for one thing, and that new film which I'm not

189
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:07.480
<v Speaker 1>going to see with the camera stays in one position,

190
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:11.720
<v Speaker 1>it's just one room. And Tom Hanks got deaged along

191
00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:13.639
<v Speaker 1>with what's her name from Princess Briane. I don't want

192
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:18.600
<v Speaker 1>to see that movie? But what was I saying? Oh

193
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>my god, I'm so aggravated today, Hollywood? Whatever's happened to Hollywood?

194
00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:27.799
<v Speaker 1>Joe Rogan? Oh God, where am I anyhow? Joe Rogan? Oh,

195
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:30.240
<v Speaker 1>all these actors are making pit stops. So the latest

196
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:32.960
<v Speaker 1>one is Josh Brolin. Josh brow was on Joe Rogan Today,

197
00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:38.919
<v Speaker 1>two days ago, he was on SmartLess or on Flying

198
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.840
<v Speaker 1>the Wall with Spaden Carvey. Then he was with Mark

199
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:45.159
<v Speaker 1>Marin three times in a week. He's pitching his book

200
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:49.039
<v Speaker 1>Don't do This, Don't do This. I mean. Brolin's always

201
00:11:49.080 --> 00:11:50.480
<v Speaker 1>a fun guest. He likes to say a lot of

202
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:53.919
<v Speaker 1>crazy shit. He talked about his mother being absolutely bonkers,

203
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:59.159
<v Speaker 1>the chick that James Brolin married. I mean, it's amazing

204
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:03.159
<v Speaker 1>Josh even to this age. So he's got an interesting story.

205
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:04.840
<v Speaker 1>But I don't need to hear Bob's at Mecha's on

206
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:10.279
<v Speaker 1>three different shows, you know, or just I hope some

207
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:14.360
<v Speaker 1>of these big shows don't turn into Kimmel, Colbert and

208
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:19.519
<v Speaker 1>uh Fallon. Just don't do that. Be original, don't jump

209
00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:21.840
<v Speaker 1>on the bandwagon for a new movie coming out. Otherwise

210
00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:24.320
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna go right back to that bullshit we used

211
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:27.240
<v Speaker 1>to have for years. That worked, but we put a

212
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:29.320
<v Speaker 1>monkey wrench into that because no one cares about the

213
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:32.039
<v Speaker 1>late night shows. Now it's all about how many bits

214
00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:33.919
<v Speaker 1>on your late night show can make it online the

215
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:37.399
<v Speaker 1>next day to get a million, two million, three million hits.

216
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:40.159
<v Speaker 1>It's so crazy how different it used to be. Johnny

217
00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Corssen got viewers leto let him and viewers now no.

218
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Now it's booking go on social media tomorrow. Okay, Joe Rogan,

219
00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:55.320
<v Speaker 1>it's got broin on. Joe Rogan likes to listen. I

220
00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:57.240
<v Speaker 1>know he knows a lot about a lot, but some

221
00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:00.519
<v Speaker 1>things he doesn't know. It just makes me crazy. He

222
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:03.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't know what the twenty one Club today was in

223
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:05.679
<v Speaker 1>New York. The twenty one Club twenty one in New

224
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:10.679
<v Speaker 1>York probably the most famous restaurant in this city. Everybody

225
00:13:10.759 --> 00:13:14.679
<v Speaker 1>goes to. Who's important, politicians, actors, sports plays. It's been

226
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:18.799
<v Speaker 1>around forever, twenty one never heard of it. He lived

227
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:21.879
<v Speaker 1>in New York. Blew. My mind doesn't know how to

228
00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:29.360
<v Speaker 1>pronounce parmigiano, reggiano, parmesan, rega, reganano, oh my god, give it,

229
00:13:31.960 --> 00:13:35.000
<v Speaker 1>can't pronounce other Italian stuff. I cringe when I hear

230
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:36.919
<v Speaker 1>him trying to save these words because he likes to

231
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:40.519
<v Speaker 1>say he's half Italian. Well it must be his mother,

232
00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:43.120
<v Speaker 1>I suppose, But maybe his father was half. But whoever

233
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:47.000
<v Speaker 1>was half or or whole to make him half, They

234
00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:49.360
<v Speaker 1>don't give a shit about their heritage. Because Joe Rogan

235
00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:54.039
<v Speaker 1>doesn't know who gott's about being Italian. I know he

236
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:55.840
<v Speaker 1>doesn't care what I think because he doesn't cared about

237
00:13:55.879 --> 00:13:58.440
<v Speaker 1>me some people over the years. Bro, you gotta get

238
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:02.279
<v Speaker 1>on Rogan, No kidding, you get on Rogan, you just

239
00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:07.600
<v Speaker 1>blow up, of course. But like I said, you know,

240
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:11.559
<v Speaker 1>Joe Rogan doesn't know I exist he's not much for gossip.

241
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:13.919
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't care. Matter of fact, I hurt some guys,

242
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:16.759
<v Speaker 1>like when I was hanging out with Joey Diaz and

243
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:18.759
<v Speaker 1>I did Joey's show and he did my show, and

244
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:21.080
<v Speaker 1>at one point I said to him, you know, like,

245
00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:23.919
<v Speaker 1>I want to come back into your show, and how's

246
00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>it going with Joe Rogan. I would never ask him

247
00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:28.639
<v Speaker 1>to get me on that show. This is like six y,

248
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:31.519
<v Speaker 1>just five years ago. He goes, Joe's Okay, who's gonna

249
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:33.279
<v Speaker 1>move to Texas? He goes, do me a favor, bro,

250
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.039
<v Speaker 1>don't ask me to get on the show. I said,

251
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:38.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not asking you. Whatever I said, I fully understand

252
00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:40.399
<v Speaker 1>that whole dynamic. I'm not asking you. Oh okay, okay,

253
00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Because I got so many friends a woman to get

254
00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:45.960
<v Speaker 1>them on Joe's show, I said, Joey, I'll never ask you.

255
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:49.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't give a fuck, all right, okay. I heard

256
00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:51.799
<v Speaker 1>other guys like Kreischer say when they go out with

257
00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Rogan to like a UFC event or whatever, a comedy club,

258
00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:58.639
<v Speaker 1>people want pictures of like Berg, Kreischer or Tom Segura,

259
00:14:59.080 --> 00:15:02.039
<v Speaker 1>and they'll go, can Joe pose And they'll look at

260
00:15:02.039 --> 00:15:05.440
<v Speaker 1>the person and go, he's not going to pose for selfie, really,

261
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:09.120
<v Speaker 1>can you just ask him? And he's never gonna come

262
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:11.200
<v Speaker 1>here and pose for a picture. He doesn't do that.

263
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:14.200
<v Speaker 1>And then some people will give Bert christ or Tom

264
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Segorl whoever hangs out with Rogan a gift and they'll go, yeah,

265
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:19.720
<v Speaker 1>I got one for Joe too, Can you give this

266
00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:23.399
<v Speaker 1>to Joe? And Bert or whatever comic will say, Okay,

267
00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:26.399
<v Speaker 1>you just gave me two, thank you. I love them both.

268
00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll cherish them. But Joe's not going to take this gift. So,

269
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:32.759
<v Speaker 1>like people know, don't ask or anything. Don't give him nothing.

270
00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:35.799
<v Speaker 1>He wants to beat his own world, and whether or

271
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:38.039
<v Speaker 1>not you want to respect it or not, that's just him.

272
00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:40.320
<v Speaker 1>But what got me today was I'm listening to him

273
00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:43.200
<v Speaker 1>and Brolin, and because I'm into gossip, but I know

274
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the details and the little little things of so many stories,

275
00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:51.759
<v Speaker 1>it just gets to me. So he's talking to Brolin

276
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:54.840
<v Speaker 1>about Sean Penn. Josh and Sean hang out a lot,

277
00:15:54.919 --> 00:16:00.360
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah, and they get to talking about Sean

278
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:03.720
<v Speaker 1>knowing l Choppo and Sean doing the Rolling Stone article

279
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:06.480
<v Speaker 1>about El Choppo the cocaine kingpin, and they got so

280
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:09.399
<v Speaker 1>many things wrong about Yeah, I guess Sean just approached

281
00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:11.320
<v Speaker 1>him one day, and you know, and Sean just trumble

282
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:13.200
<v Speaker 1>up to Mexico and he just went to Mexico and

283
00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:15.919
<v Speaker 1>met him. No, none of that went the way they

284
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:18.240
<v Speaker 1>think it went. It was. They're so off on that.

285
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:21.080
<v Speaker 1>And Brolan knows Sean Penny's a buddy of his. How

286
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:24.080
<v Speaker 1>can he get this wrong? It's like Chuck CeDell telling

287
00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:27.080
<v Speaker 1>the story about him punching me out. Yeah, he did

288
00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:29.519
<v Speaker 1>punch me out, but every detail from meeting him to

289
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.159
<v Speaker 1>getting knocked out was wrong. I don't know.

290
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:38.519
<v Speaker 2>Basically what happened is Kate del Castillo, the Latina actress

291
00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:41.679
<v Speaker 2>who's on the Spanish soap opera called Ladiena del Sir,

292
00:16:42.200 --> 00:16:43.240
<v Speaker 2>The Queen of the South.

293
00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:46.039
<v Speaker 1>She's been on there for years. She's very popular. She

294
00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:50.919
<v Speaker 1>wrote El Chopo letter while he was in prison, begging him,

295
00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:53.159
<v Speaker 1>asking him, with all the money you've gotten to the

296
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:55.960
<v Speaker 1>drug trade, can you build some schools, can you build

297
00:16:55.960 --> 00:17:01.120
<v Speaker 1>a hospital, daycare centers? Do something good? Right? She got

298
00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:03.519
<v Speaker 1>to him and he was always a fan of hers

299
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:05.319
<v Speaker 1>because he used to watch that show. And suddenly he

300
00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:07.839
<v Speaker 1>gets a letter from Kate del Castillo, and he's like,

301
00:17:08.319 --> 00:17:11.079
<v Speaker 1>they become pen pals. And he's in prison, you know

302
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:13.200
<v Speaker 1>where he was living. He finally escaped when he picked

303
00:17:13.240 --> 00:17:15.359
<v Speaker 1>up the tub and went down in that tunnel for

304
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.880
<v Speaker 1>miles and miles on a motorcycle. But he has this

305
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:20.680
<v Speaker 1>new pen pal and I'm not sure what they were

306
00:17:20.680 --> 00:17:22.960
<v Speaker 1>saying to each other in these letters, but he got

307
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.200
<v Speaker 1>a little steamy. And that's when Kate del Castillo kind

308
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:28.160
<v Speaker 1>of let him know I want to make a documentary

309
00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:32.880
<v Speaker 1>about this and about you, and that it perked up

310
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:38.160
<v Speaker 1>his interest a little bit. Okay, hold that thought. So

311
00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:41.799
<v Speaker 1>he sends word back that he wants to see her,

312
00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and he tells her it'll be the secret spot. My

313
00:17:44.039 --> 00:17:46.519
<v Speaker 1>people will reach out to your people. Don't tell anybody.

314
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:48.880
<v Speaker 1>And this is the way it's gonna happen. Because now

315
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:50.559
<v Speaker 1>he's out of jail, he's out of prison, out and

316
00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:53.400
<v Speaker 1>he wants to meet her. So she's cooking up this

317
00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:57.160
<v Speaker 1>documentary about her story with him, and then Gillian Barbary

318
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:01.440
<v Speaker 1>throws a party one night. Was actually invited to this party,

319
00:18:01.440 --> 00:18:03.960
<v Speaker 1>but he didn't go because she didn't have a close

320
00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:07.279
<v Speaker 1>Back then, back when Gillian loved Trump, and we used

321
00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:09.799
<v Speaker 1>to say great things about him on this radio show

322
00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:13.400
<v Speaker 1>she co hosted with John Phillips on KABC, and I

323
00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:15.519
<v Speaker 1>was on every Friday for a year and a half

324
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.599
<v Speaker 1>doing Trump stuff, and maybe two years. But I was

325
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:21.240
<v Speaker 1>on the air with them election night eight years ago

326
00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:23.480
<v Speaker 1>when I said to the crowd, Trump's gonna win tonight.

327
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:25.720
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna beat Hillary. Late at night, people booed me.

328
00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:29.680
<v Speaker 1>I was right. So suddenly, then Jillian begins to hate

329
00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:32.279
<v Speaker 1>Trump because she got friendly again with her man hating

330
00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:36.440
<v Speaker 1>bitchy girlfriend Lisa Guerrero, who got in her ear and

331
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:38.640
<v Speaker 1>reminded her you were a celebrity, you have to be liberal.

332
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:41.599
<v Speaker 1>And then Jillian just couldn't do that radio show anymore,

333
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:44.079
<v Speaker 1>and they ended up getting rid of her, and what

334
00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:50.480
<v Speaker 1>a shame. Anyhow, So Jillian throws his party. Kate's invited

335
00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:54.400
<v Speaker 1>because Kate's a really good friend. And Kate was being followed.

336
00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Apparently people in America knew that she was talking to

337
00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:02.119
<v Speaker 1>out chopo black car following her at night. She would

338
00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:04.960
<v Speaker 1>stay at Jillian's and she'd cry and she was shaking

339
00:19:05.039 --> 00:19:08.039
<v Speaker 1>with anxiety. Things I couldn't tell anybody because her life

340
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:11.119
<v Speaker 1>depended on AJN. Please don't tell anybody. I won't and

341
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I did, but they were following Kate around and it

342
00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:18.720
<v Speaker 1>was really scaring her. Sean Penn goes to this party.

343
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:21.759
<v Speaker 1>He hits it off with Kate, but once Kate starts

344
00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:24.279
<v Speaker 1>talking to him about her idea. This is after they

345
00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:26.799
<v Speaker 1>they have their fling. Now they're fucking around now, and

346
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:29.400
<v Speaker 1>then Kate decides to tell Sean what she's thinking of

347
00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:32.880
<v Speaker 1>doing and her new friend Al Choppo. This puts Sean

348
00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:36.039
<v Speaker 1>on alert. He gets on his tippy toes, like, holy shit,

349
00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:38.079
<v Speaker 1>I can make this movie. I could get this done.

350
00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to do this. I want to talk to

351
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:42.720
<v Speaker 1>al Choppo. I'm a writer. I gotta I'm gonna call

352
00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:44.799
<v Speaker 1>Rolling Stone and tell him I make it. To seel Choppo,

353
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:47.960
<v Speaker 1>they give mc green light to write an article. Sean's

354
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:49.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna go up there for his own good, fuck Kate

355
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.839
<v Speaker 1>Castillo's movie. He's doing this for himself. Sure enough, when

356
00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:54.480
<v Speaker 1>he gets there, he has a cell phone on him

357
00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:58.400
<v Speaker 1>that he hid, and that's basically a tracking Uh what

358
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:00.799
<v Speaker 1>do you call it? A tracking thing that people can

359
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:04.960
<v Speaker 1>see they can tell you. Oh, that's where Sean Penn is.

360
00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:07.240
<v Speaker 1>And he's supposed to meet al Choppo. This weekend, so

361
00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:09.279
<v Speaker 1>he really fucked up El Choppo's life, and that's how

362
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:12.440
<v Speaker 1>al Chopo got locked up again when people came. The

363
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:14.599
<v Speaker 1>Mexican police come up there and shot everything up and

364
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:18.640
<v Speaker 1>took him away. But Seawan did that because he wanted

365
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:20.880
<v Speaker 1>in on the story. Of course, he didn't stick with

366
00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Kate doug Costillo. In fact, when this went down, he

367
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:28.519
<v Speaker 1>was with Layla George from Disclaimer, who was arguably the

368
00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:32.920
<v Speaker 1>sexiest most sexual actress around right now if you saw

369
00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:35.920
<v Speaker 1>a Disclaimer. So he turns his back on how together

370
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:38.640
<v Speaker 1>with Kate del Castillo, and that whole thing falls apart

371
00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:41.799
<v Speaker 1>because Al Choppa goes back to prison. They blamed Sean Penfrit.

372
00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:45.559
<v Speaker 1>Then Sean's thought's getting followed. But it's such a big story,

373
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:49.359
<v Speaker 1>and to get it so wrong with am I crazy.

374
00:20:49.480 --> 00:20:52.160
<v Speaker 1>I just don't like when people get stories I think

375
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:59.160
<v Speaker 1>is so big and just massacre them. Anyhow, Denzel Washington

376
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:03.519
<v Speaker 1>has opened up. I read an article. There's been articles

377
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:07.079
<v Speaker 1>everywhere because you know, Gladiator comes out tonight, Gladiator too,

378
00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:09.960
<v Speaker 1>which I want my son to see, but he hasn't

379
00:21:09.960 --> 00:21:12.000
<v Speaker 1>seen the first one yet, so he can't see the

380
00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:14.160
<v Speaker 1>second until he sees the first one that goes to

381
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:19.200
<v Speaker 1>all of you too. So Denzel's coming out everywhere talking

382
00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:21.960
<v Speaker 1>about his past drug and alcohol use. He's admitting that

383
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:24.359
<v Speaker 1>he did a lot of damage to his body. Now

384
00:21:24.400 --> 00:21:27.920
<v Speaker 1>he says he's been sober for ten years. But in

385
00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:31.799
<v Speaker 1>an Esquire article, he really opened up. He said his

386
00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:35.119
<v Speaker 1>unhealthy habits began with wine. Now, listen, I got a

387
00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:39.680
<v Speaker 1>beef with that, because all these fancy people who don't

388
00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:42.119
<v Speaker 1>want you to think they were dirty enough to get

389
00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:46.119
<v Speaker 1>involved with cocaine or a little chip of heroin now

390
00:21:46.119 --> 00:21:49.920
<v Speaker 1>and then, or crystal meth under control, they go to

391
00:21:50.039 --> 00:21:53.079
<v Speaker 1>wine because that's class here. That makes you think, Oh,

392
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:55.200
<v Speaker 1>he just likes a few glasses of wine, too many,

393
00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:58.279
<v Speaker 1>not a big deal, not something to go to rehab over.

394
00:21:58.880 --> 00:22:02.000
<v Speaker 1>So let him pretend that he was drinking big expensive

395
00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:04.400
<v Speaker 1>glasses or bottles of wine, which I'm sure he was,

396
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:08.519
<v Speaker 1>But stop stop with the I was just wine. I'll

397
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:11.920
<v Speaker 1>never believe that because I know Denzel, and of course

398
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:14.400
<v Speaker 1>he says, wine's very tricky. It's very slow. It ain't

399
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:17.880
<v Speaker 1>like boom all of a sudden. He said, I never

400
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:21.240
<v Speaker 1>got strung out on heroin, never got strung got strung

401
00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:23.920
<v Speaker 1>out on coke. Never got strung out on hard drugs.

402
00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I shot dope just like they shot dope. But I

403
00:22:28.039 --> 00:22:31.519
<v Speaker 1>never got strung out. Now I didn't know that that

404
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:35.039
<v Speaker 1>he shot dope, he said. I never got strung out

405
00:22:35.079 --> 00:22:39.319
<v Speaker 1>on liquor. I had this ideal idea of wine tastings,

406
00:22:39.359 --> 00:22:42.480
<v Speaker 1>and you know, that's what started it. And it was

407
00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:44.720
<v Speaker 1>a very subtle thing. And I drank the best that

408
00:22:44.759 --> 00:22:48.279
<v Speaker 1>he talks about drinking two four thousand dollars bottles of

409
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:51.119
<v Speaker 1>wine a day because he had the money, or he'd

410
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:55.359
<v Speaker 1>just called gil Turner's, which is a famous liquor store

411
00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:59.559
<v Speaker 1>on Sunset Boulevard. When I was hanging out with Manola Ryders,

412
00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:01.680
<v Speaker 1>she lived up that street. I forget the name of it.

413
00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:05.480
<v Speaker 1>All of Sunset you make are right going west, right

414
00:23:05.480 --> 00:23:07.839
<v Speaker 1>by gil Turner's, then you make your second right. Her

415
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:10.039
<v Speaker 1>house is on the left side, like four houses down.

416
00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:14.240
<v Speaker 1>But she was partying a lot, obviously because we were

417
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:17.839
<v Speaker 1>hanging out and we could walk to gil Turner's, but

418
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:20.359
<v Speaker 1>we would never walk. She would call them and they'd

419
00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:22.599
<v Speaker 1>bring it to her. When you when you're hanging out

420
00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:24.759
<v Speaker 1>with somebody that famous, that much of a big star,

421
00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:29.200
<v Speaker 1>every single restaurant in Beverly Hills or anywhere. I never

422
00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:32.599
<v Speaker 1>knew this. You can call up and they'll they'll bring

423
00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:36.119
<v Speaker 1>you dinner to your house. I didn't know that. Like,

424
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:38.319
<v Speaker 1>what do you feel like eating tonight? Oh? You know,

425
00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:39.759
<v Speaker 1>I'd love to go to mister Chill. Let's go to

426
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:42.839
<v Speaker 1>mister Chill. Well, I'll just call them. What do you

427
00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:45.799
<v Speaker 1>mean you just call It's not fucking Jersey Mike's No,

428
00:23:46.039 --> 00:23:48.160
<v Speaker 1>just don't. They'll bring it here. And there's like a

429
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:50.680
<v Speaker 1>special thing celebrities can call a certain number. They can

430
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:53.640
<v Speaker 1>give it the fuck they want. Yeah, nice to be

431
00:23:53.680 --> 00:23:58.359
<v Speaker 1>a star. So anyhow, he's buying bottles at guild Turner's

432
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:01.160
<v Speaker 1>finishing two four thousand dollars bottles a day. His wife's

433
00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:03.559
<v Speaker 1>getting a little nervous, bah bah bah. But you know,

434
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:06.519
<v Speaker 1>he said he never drank while he's preparing for a role.

435
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Clean up, go back to work. I can work and drink.

436
00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:15.680
<v Speaker 1>It didn't bother me, you know. So there are people

437
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:17.799
<v Speaker 1>like that. I understand that when I was doing a

438
00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:20.839
<v Speaker 1>little bit of too much of a not a lot

439
00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:22.240
<v Speaker 1>of a bad thing, but a little bit of a

440
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:26.000
<v Speaker 1>bad thing. It always starts small, you know, it's starting

441
00:24:26.039 --> 00:24:27.880
<v Speaker 1>to work. I'm working till three o'clock in the morning,

442
00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:30.640
<v Speaker 1>and I'm fine, I'm not falling asleep. I'm filming a

443
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:34.000
<v Speaker 1>TV show. But it did get tiring. So I had

444
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.880
<v Speaker 1>a friend come around with some coke here and there,

445
00:24:35.880 --> 00:24:38.319
<v Speaker 1>and it was a little forty dollars bag. It's so easy,

446
00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:42.400
<v Speaker 1>a little bag. It's like the width of two fingernails. Okay,

447
00:24:43.039 --> 00:24:44.480
<v Speaker 1>and you don't think anything of it. Could do a

448
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:46.400
<v Speaker 1>few bumps here and there, you stay awake. It's great.

449
00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:48.359
<v Speaker 1>The next morning, you don't wake up messed up because

450
00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:50.839
<v Speaker 1>he just had a little bit. Matter fact. In the beginning,

451
00:24:50.839 --> 00:24:53.000
<v Speaker 1>you bring home home, you bring stuff home to save

452
00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:55.200
<v Speaker 1>for the next day. Maybe he didn't last you three

453
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:58.839
<v Speaker 1>or four days. Well that doesn't last long, No, Pretty

454
00:24:58.880 --> 00:25:01.039
<v Speaker 1>soon you need more of the same day, and more

455
00:25:01.079 --> 00:25:04.400
<v Speaker 1>again the same day. It's disgusting. So you started that way,

456
00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:06.880
<v Speaker 1>which I did on mysteries and scandals, and you know,

457
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:08.640
<v Speaker 1>it got me through the night. But then it becomes

458
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:10.319
<v Speaker 1>more of a thing. I want it all the time,

459
00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:13.319
<v Speaker 1>I want it every day, I want it twice a day. Now.

460
00:25:13.359 --> 00:25:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that's what Denzel got into, but if

461
00:25:15.400 --> 00:25:17.720
<v Speaker 1>he was shooting hard drugs at one point, then wow,

462
00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:23.200
<v Speaker 1>he he went down, I never shot anything that's very,

463
00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:27.759
<v Speaker 1>very scary, But he said, basically, look, when he's hit

464
00:25:27.799 --> 00:25:30.960
<v Speaker 1>his sixtieth birthday, he realized reflecting on his past, that

465
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.440
<v Speaker 1>he did a lot of damage to his body. And

466
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:35.519
<v Speaker 1>I know I've been in the same boat. I've sat

467
00:25:35.559 --> 00:25:37.720
<v Speaker 1>there in hospitals, so laid there and got the same

468
00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:41.519
<v Speaker 1>news from people who would know about that. But he

469
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:45.079
<v Speaker 1>was being honest about his life, and I like that

470
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:49.480
<v Speaker 1>about people, especially now that he's seventy. And I like

471
00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:51.799
<v Speaker 1>the fact that even though he's being honest about this,

472
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:54.640
<v Speaker 1>there was never a time that Denzel Washington was sloppy

473
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.799
<v Speaker 1>or he was never a mean spirited drunk, you know.

474
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:00.240
<v Speaker 1>I never heard stories like that about him. He wasn't

475
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:04.480
<v Speaker 1>always getting in trouble, you know. And if he was

476
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:06.559
<v Speaker 1>drinking a lot or doing drugs and never gotten the

477
00:26:06.599 --> 00:26:09.279
<v Speaker 1>way of his performances, did you ever see Denzel not great?

478
00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Not for nothing, but he might be like the top

479
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:15.720
<v Speaker 1>three of the best actors in the world. I always

480
00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:18.960
<v Speaker 1>go to see a Denzel Washington movie. There's not many

481
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:23.440
<v Speaker 1>hollywooded lead people like him. There just isn't. And I'll

482
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:26.240
<v Speaker 1>tell you he's exactly how you think he'd be if

483
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:31.720
<v Speaker 1>you met him in person. Years ago, probably twenty four

484
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.359
<v Speaker 1>or twenty three years ago. I had a fun night

485
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:36.440
<v Speaker 1>with Denzel back in the day. This is right after

486
00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Training Day came out, so about two thousand and one,

487
00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:43.160
<v Speaker 1>and he was so great in that role. Tem Com

488
00:26:43.200 --> 00:26:46.240
<v Speaker 1>don't go shit on me. I mean, I was at Ago,

489
00:26:46.400 --> 00:26:48.920
<v Speaker 1>my favorite restaurant, one night when everybody was going there

490
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 1>and I was with a small crew people, and I

491
00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:55.240
<v Speaker 1>saw Denzel and several other people walk in for dinner,

492
00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:57.880
<v Speaker 1>and a few minutes later, I went to the restroom

493
00:26:58.279 --> 00:27:03.240
<v Speaker 1>and he's behind me, okay, and I tell him casually, Hey,

494
00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:05.240
<v Speaker 1>you know I know the guy who work with you

495
00:27:05.559 --> 00:27:08.640
<v Speaker 1>on your character for Training Day, the guy I know Bone.

496
00:27:09.079 --> 00:27:10.799
<v Speaker 1>He's like, oh, you know Bone. I said, yeah, I

497
00:27:10.839 --> 00:27:13.720
<v Speaker 1>know Bone. Bone is well, his name is Clee Sloan,

498
00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Clee Bone Sloan. But Bone was a former gang banger

499
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:20.400
<v Speaker 1>who I used to see at Doobi's, the after hours

500
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:23.039
<v Speaker 1>house over on Crenshrow Boulevard and a bad part of town.

501
00:27:24.039 --> 00:27:26.519
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, yeah, I know Bone. I said, I

502
00:27:26.559 --> 00:27:28.519
<v Speaker 1>know that line. To protect the sheep, you got to

503
00:27:28.519 --> 00:27:30.359
<v Speaker 1>catch the wolf. And it takes a wolf to catch

504
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:32.759
<v Speaker 1>a Wolf. He's like, yeah, that's Bone. I said, I

505
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:34.640
<v Speaker 1>know Bone gave that line to me. I said, I

506
00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:37.160
<v Speaker 1>know he did. I know he told me so, I said,

507
00:27:37.200 --> 00:27:40.480
<v Speaker 1>we talk all the time. Now, Bone, You have to understand.

508
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Bone was basically the guy you have to hire. Like

509
00:27:44.440 --> 00:27:47.400
<v Speaker 1>whatever a Hollywood whenever a Hollywood production is going to

510
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:49.799
<v Speaker 1>shoot in a part of town that's run by street gangs,

511
00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:54.000
<v Speaker 1>you need a black dude who knows who runs each

512
00:27:54.039 --> 00:27:57.240
<v Speaker 1>block and to whom you need permission to park, permission

513
00:27:57.319 --> 00:28:01.000
<v Speaker 1>to work. It ain't just permission from the city. You

514
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:04.119
<v Speaker 1>need permission for certain people on certain blocks. It's no

515
00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:07.400
<v Speaker 1>different than Little Italy. You know, when we were using guns,

516
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:10.400
<v Speaker 1>uh fake guns for his shootout scene for this little

517
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:13.240
<v Speaker 1>short movie when I killed me and Willy DeMeo killed

518
00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:16.400
<v Speaker 1>Chris Maloney and this little short uh he was he

519
00:28:16.559 --> 00:28:19.519
<v Speaker 1>was called Revolving Doors. You know, we had the guns out.

520
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:22.039
<v Speaker 1>The cops came on horseback. We told the cops, you know,

521
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:25.640
<v Speaker 1>we got permit. It's sold good, no problem, you got permission, Yeah,

522
00:28:25.640 --> 00:28:28.599
<v Speaker 1>we got we got permission from the city. Like yeah,

523
00:28:28.599 --> 00:28:31.599
<v Speaker 1>but do you have permission? Yeah. The director's going, yeah,

524
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:34.160
<v Speaker 1>I got permission, And the cop looks down the street

525
00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:38.160
<v Speaker 1>at this joint on Mulberry Street that was owned by

526
00:28:38.160 --> 00:28:41.359
<v Speaker 1>a guy that everybody knew. And you got permission from

527
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:43.559
<v Speaker 1>so and so. Oh yeah, yeah he knows, he knows,

528
00:28:43.599 --> 00:28:45.799
<v Speaker 1>And the cops just wrote off. They didn't care. Once

529
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:48.440
<v Speaker 1>we had permission from the other guy down the street,

530
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:51.720
<v Speaker 1>the name of Chatchaw. We call him Cha Cha cha

531
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Chaw knew Uh same thing. In the streets in La

532
00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:58.160
<v Speaker 1>that have gangs, you gotta get permission. And Boone was

533
00:28:58.200 --> 00:29:00.440
<v Speaker 1>the guy, a former gangbanger who could go in there

534
00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:03.160
<v Speaker 1>and talk to people and make sure that the people

535
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:04.839
<v Speaker 1>in Hollywood can get in there and work and not,

536
00:29:05.039 --> 00:29:07.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, have to worry about their livelihood. You think

537
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:11.160
<v Speaker 1>about movies like Colors with Sean Penn and Dennis Hopper,

538
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Boys in the Hood, New Jack City, you know, all

539
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:18.039
<v Speaker 1>those movies need a guy like Bone. You can't be

540
00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:20.960
<v Speaker 1>a twenty six year old white girl, you know, coming

541
00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:24.160
<v Speaker 1>out of graduating from Carnegie Mellon or some shit. You

542
00:29:24.200 --> 00:29:26.440
<v Speaker 1>can't just roll up on a neighborhood or a street

543
00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:29.960
<v Speaker 1>and start planning a shoot. Now, try that and somebody

544
00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:32.920
<v Speaker 1>will start shooting, but it won't be a camera. So

545
00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:35.599
<v Speaker 1>Bone's real name, like I said, is Clee Sloan, And

546
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:40.160
<v Speaker 1>after being part of the Athens Park Bloods, he left

547
00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:42.960
<v Speaker 1>the gangs. He left it and he became someone who's

548
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:45.440
<v Speaker 1>tried to broke or peace between the Bloods and the Crips.

549
00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:49.440
<v Speaker 1>He worked on training Day, like I said, he was

550
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:55.119
<v Speaker 1>a gang advisor, helped persuade actual gang members to lend

551
00:29:55.200 --> 00:29:58.799
<v Speaker 1>their credibility to the project on the screen. And you know,

552
00:29:58.880 --> 00:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>he took Denzel aside, and Denzel would ask him questions,

553
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:06.680
<v Speaker 1>and eventually he got him paid as an advisor, as

554
00:30:06.680 --> 00:30:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a technical advisor on how Denzel should speak and say

555
00:30:10.039 --> 00:30:18.559
<v Speaker 1>certain things on training Day. So before Training Day came out,

556
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:21.319
<v Speaker 1>I knew Bone had worked with Denzel to get him

557
00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:24.160
<v Speaker 1>ready and he was. Actually he got introduced to movies

558
00:30:24.200 --> 00:30:27.519
<v Speaker 1>by Jim Brown, the great football player. Jim Brown got

559
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:29.720
<v Speaker 1>him a Giggs an assistant when he got out of prison.

560
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:34.119
<v Speaker 1>The first time he met Antoine Fuqua, who shot Training Day.

561
00:30:34.279 --> 00:30:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Next thing, you know, he's a friend. He meets Denzel

562
00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and he's got this whole new career. Now, Bone Sloan

563
00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:45.480
<v Speaker 1>is a cinematographer making documentaries, really cool stuff. But they

564
00:30:45.519 --> 00:30:48.000
<v Speaker 1>hit it off right away. And when I told him,

565
00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:51.279
<v Speaker 1>I used to hang with Bone at Doobie's his eyes

566
00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:55.200
<v Speaker 1>lit up. He's like, Denzel's like, you know, Doobie, how

567
00:30:55.279 --> 00:30:58.000
<v Speaker 1>doobey Ben? I haven't seen Deubie in a long time.

568
00:30:58.799 --> 00:31:00.640
<v Speaker 1>And I said, I'm going in now for a pickup.

569
00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:03.559
<v Speaker 1>You need anything. I just figured i'd say that because

570
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:07.359
<v Speaker 1>I could tell he was down you need anything, I'm

571
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:10.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna go for a pickup, meaning I'm gonna get some drugs.

572
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:12.400
<v Speaker 1>And he gave me this look. He gave me that

573
00:31:12.519 --> 00:31:16.279
<v Speaker 1>Denzel latitude. You're saying you're going to doobies. Now, you're

574
00:31:16.279 --> 00:31:18.359
<v Speaker 1>going to the house and you're coming back. I'm like, yeah,

575
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna go pick something up, make the night

576
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:23.240
<v Speaker 1>more fun, turn up the volume. You're gonna be here

577
00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:25.920
<v Speaker 1>in thirty five forty minutes. He's like, yeah, we haven't

578
00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:27.759
<v Speaker 1>even eaten yet. I said, good, I'll be right back.

579
00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:31.839
<v Speaker 1>Sure enough. I go downtown, I pick up the shit,

580
00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:34.279
<v Speaker 1>drive back, walk in the door, and I'll go. I

581
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:38.359
<v Speaker 1>see Denzel's looking right at the door, which makes him

582
00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:41.000
<v Speaker 1>to be the kind of person who knows his cocaine,

583
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:43.000
<v Speaker 1>because if you know someone's going to get it, your

584
00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:44.880
<v Speaker 1>eyes are on that door. And as soon as I

585
00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:47.519
<v Speaker 1>walk in the door. I head right for the bathroom.

586
00:31:47.680 --> 00:31:51.119
<v Speaker 1>Sure enough, he gets up and starts walking over. I'm

587
00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:54.440
<v Speaker 1>in there twenty seconds. Knock on the door. It's a

588
00:31:54.440 --> 00:31:58.680
<v Speaker 1>big bathroom. I let him in, and you know, we're

589
00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:01.559
<v Speaker 1>in the bathroom and he's laughing. Were like two kids.

590
00:32:02.839 --> 00:32:05.400
<v Speaker 1>He's like, all right, so you went to Dubie's. I said, yeah,

591
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I went, I got it right here and this is

592
00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:10.880
<v Speaker 1>from Dubie. I said, yeah, go ahead, how fun. He's like,

593
00:32:10.920 --> 00:32:12.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe I'll just do a little bit. I'm

594
00:32:12.319 --> 00:32:14.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna get myself in trouble. I don't need a lot

595
00:32:14.279 --> 00:32:16.680
<v Speaker 1>that kind of talk. I'm like, you can have it, man,

596
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:19.880
<v Speaker 1>I got another one from me. Take this one. Excuse me.

597
00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:23.960
<v Speaker 1>And he's like all embarrassed, like he just looked very

598
00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:26.640
<v Speaker 1>embarrassed that I bought him one. I got him one.

599
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:29.119
<v Speaker 1>But he's like, for real. I said, yeah, is that okay?

600
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:31.319
<v Speaker 1>He goes, yeah, yeah, it's all right. Sorry, iron try it.

601
00:32:31.319 --> 00:32:34.279
<v Speaker 1>I said, okay, here and he patted me on the shoulder.

602
00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:35.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean we did. We did a couple of bumps

603
00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:38.759
<v Speaker 1>and he pats me on the shoulder. He's going to leave.

604
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:42.640
<v Speaker 1>He's like, my man, just everything you expect Denzel Washington

605
00:32:42.640 --> 00:32:47.119
<v Speaker 1>to say, and but I did have to ask him

606
00:32:47.160 --> 00:32:52.160
<v Speaker 1>something before he left, something I'd always heard and I

607
00:32:52.319 --> 00:32:55.640
<v Speaker 1>was hoping it's true, because she was she was beautiful,

608
00:32:55.680 --> 00:32:59.160
<v Speaker 1>and there was always this story, this roomor that Denzel

609
00:32:59.319 --> 00:33:03.039
<v Speaker 1>had for years, even though he's married, had maintained this

610
00:33:03.200 --> 00:33:08.359
<v Speaker 1>relationship with this really beautiful actress named Sinai Latham. You've

611
00:33:08.359 --> 00:33:11.200
<v Speaker 1>seen her. She's been in his movies as well. Matter

612
00:33:11.240 --> 00:33:13.240
<v Speaker 1>of fact, he gets parts for here and there because

613
00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:15.960
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't mind working with her. So I go, look,

614
00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:17.440
<v Speaker 1>I just got to ask him. You don't have to

615
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:20.039
<v Speaker 1>answer me, but just let me know in some way.

616
00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:24.519
<v Speaker 1>He's like, what's that? I said, Sinai Latham and he

617
00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:30.359
<v Speaker 1>just smiled that. Denzel smiled and he said, well, she's

618
00:33:30.440 --> 00:33:33.759
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful actress and the work she puts in all

619
00:33:33.759 --> 00:33:36.359
<v Speaker 1>this kind of bullshit. So I cut him off. I'm like,

620
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I start reaching for the shit in his pocket, but

621
00:33:38.920 --> 00:33:41.160
<v Speaker 1>give me this stuff back. I'm not I can't deal

622
00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:43.319
<v Speaker 1>with people like you. Give me that. So I started

623
00:33:43.319 --> 00:33:45.559
<v Speaker 1>pulling at his pants. I said, you're gonna go a

624
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:48.640
<v Speaker 1>PC on me now, and he's laughing, Oh, okay, okay, okay,

625
00:33:48.640 --> 00:33:51.559
<v Speaker 1>Because look, it's what you think it is. It's what

626
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:53.519
<v Speaker 1>you think, all right, what do you think? I said?

627
00:33:53.519 --> 00:33:55.240
<v Speaker 1>You know what I think? He goes, it's what you think?

628
00:33:55.599 --> 00:33:57.119
<v Speaker 1>All right. Now, let me get back to my table.

629
00:33:57.720 --> 00:34:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Let me get out of here. Man, you're dangerous. Was

630
00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:03.160
<v Speaker 1>not Denzel's voice, but I just remember, I can't really

631
00:34:03.240 --> 00:34:07.079
<v Speaker 1>do Denzel, But yeah, it was in a lot of ways.

632
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:10.239
<v Speaker 1>And I've been around some very famous guys that the

633
00:34:10.320 --> 00:34:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Neros and the Pacinos and what have you, and they

634
00:34:12.679 --> 00:34:19.400
<v Speaker 1>are very quiet and introspective when you're around them. But

635
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:23.519
<v Speaker 1>Denzel is lively. He's a live wire. He doesn't just

636
00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:27.519
<v Speaker 1>sit there and do nothing. He talks, he's he He

637
00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:30.559
<v Speaker 1>does the Denzel things you see on screen, which I love.

638
00:34:32.400 --> 00:34:35.400
<v Speaker 1>And you know, I never saw him again. I've never

639
00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:37.320
<v Speaker 1>really talked about it too many times, but I will

640
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:39.480
<v Speaker 1>put it in my book now that he's talked about

641
00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:43.079
<v Speaker 1>shooting dope Christ's sake, So I'm glad I heard that

642
00:34:43.199 --> 00:34:46.599
<v Speaker 1>story before I finished my book. Sometimes the longer I wait,

643
00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:49.800
<v Speaker 1>the more these people cop to certain things, and suddenly

644
00:34:49.840 --> 00:34:52.239
<v Speaker 1>my chapters don't seem that scary. The reason why that

645
00:34:52.280 --> 00:34:54.840
<v Speaker 1>book has taken me a while is because, you know,

646
00:34:55.400 --> 00:34:57.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to write a book and insinuate certain things.

647
00:34:57.960 --> 00:35:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to write a book and say what happened,

648
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:02.400
<v Speaker 1>just like I'm honest like this on the show. Once

649
00:35:03.000 --> 00:35:05.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm able to be this honest like I've been for

650
00:35:05.119 --> 00:35:07.960
<v Speaker 1>seven years and not pull back any punches, to take

651
00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:10.440
<v Speaker 1>all these stories and put them in a book and

652
00:35:10.519 --> 00:35:13.719
<v Speaker 1>have to like, you know, let me couch that. I

653
00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:17.239
<v Speaker 1>don't want to couch shit, you know. So I'm trying

654
00:35:17.239 --> 00:35:21.280
<v Speaker 1>to figure out space and time. And now, believe it

655
00:35:21.320 --> 00:35:23.639
<v Speaker 1>or not, it made sound funny, but with Trump winning,

656
00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:27.079
<v Speaker 1>I think there's gonna be things that are more uh

657
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:31.360
<v Speaker 1>more easy to get into manuscripts than things used to be.

658
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:33.599
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of fact, when I wanted to write

659
00:35:33.599 --> 00:35:36.079
<v Speaker 1>a book about Trump, when he announced that he was

660
00:35:36.119 --> 00:35:38.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna run, and I had this epiphany for the podcast,

661
00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:41.360
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, I got to write a book about

662
00:35:41.719 --> 00:35:43.480
<v Speaker 1>my relationship with him and how I did a one

663
00:35:43.480 --> 00:35:45.639
<v Speaker 1>to eighty and I got so many stories. My mind

664
00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:48.559
<v Speaker 1>was racing. I called my agent, and William Morris Melberger

665
00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:51.519
<v Speaker 1>been around for decades. He was my first agent. He's

666
00:35:51.559 --> 00:35:55.960
<v Speaker 1>great handle everybody. I give him the idea and he's

667
00:35:55.960 --> 00:35:58.639
<v Speaker 1>always complimentary. Well, ah, you can run anything anything. You right,

668
00:35:58.679 --> 00:36:00.480
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be interesting, he said. But let me your question.

669
00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:02.519
<v Speaker 1>He said, I don't know why you like him. I said,

670
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:04.559
<v Speaker 1>I just do. He's a liberal, I said. He said,

671
00:36:04.599 --> 00:36:07.719
<v Speaker 1>out look, agent, listen, old Jewish guy from New York,

672
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:09.840
<v Speaker 1>break guyd listen. I'm just telling you truth. Do you

673
00:36:09.840 --> 00:36:13.360
<v Speaker 1>want to keep writing books? I said, well, yeah, yeah, okay,

674
00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:16.440
<v Speaker 1>then I wouldn't write this book. I said, why, because

675
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:18.239
<v Speaker 1>people are not going to want to publish a book

676
00:36:18.239 --> 00:36:20.480
<v Speaker 1>where you say you're friends with Donald Trump. That's not

677
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:22.840
<v Speaker 1>where this community's at. I said, what do you mean

678
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:28.280
<v Speaker 1>community books in generally? Because he's not a favorable person

679
00:36:28.320 --> 00:36:30.599
<v Speaker 1>to write about, you're not going to have any easy

680
00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:33.000
<v Speaker 1>path to write a story about him, let alone a

681
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:35.079
<v Speaker 1>book in a positive way. So if you want to

682
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:37.039
<v Speaker 1>still be an author and write books down the road,

683
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:40.119
<v Speaker 1>I suggest you sit this one out. I was told

684
00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:44.320
<v Speaker 1>that back in twenty fucking fifteen. So you know the

685
00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:46.960
<v Speaker 1>world was changing in a lot of ways, especially with

686
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:49.920
<v Speaker 1>publishing and television and what things you can say, which

687
00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:52.280
<v Speaker 1>you can write, what you can't write. I don't like

688
00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:55.079
<v Speaker 1>being in that world. And now things is loosening up,

689
00:36:55.079 --> 00:36:57.360
<v Speaker 1>and the pendulum is swinging a better way right now,

690
00:36:57.760 --> 00:37:00.360
<v Speaker 1>and this opens the door for more things and more

691
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:04.880
<v Speaker 1>risks to be taken without possibly being canceled or losing

692
00:37:04.920 --> 00:37:08.880
<v Speaker 1>your livelihood. Because for seven years or more, I've walked

693
00:37:08.920 --> 00:37:13.800
<v Speaker 1>a tightrope and I've made it, never fell into the

694
00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:17.320
<v Speaker 1>net below. That's because there is no net. Benzes don't

695
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:19.639
<v Speaker 1>use nets. We walk in the wire without the net.

696
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:24.760
<v Speaker 1>That's what I'll do this weekend on politics a bitch,

697
00:37:24.760 --> 00:37:27.360
<v Speaker 1>and that's what i'll do Monday for you moving forward again.

698
00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what the fuck is wrong with overcast,

699
00:37:29.639 --> 00:37:31.360
<v Speaker 1>but I'm going to figure it out. But just no,

700
00:37:31.519 --> 00:37:34.360
<v Speaker 1>it's nothing on our end, but it pisses me off

701
00:37:34.440 --> 00:37:36.920
<v Speaker 1>just the same. I'm aj Benz and I was your

702
00:37:37.000 --> 00:37:40.800
<v Speaker 1>daily Gonna Filtered podcast for eleven, twenty two, twenty twenty four.

703
00:37:41.280 --> 00:37:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Have a great weekend and I'll talk to you tomorrow
