Uh, he'd liked 2 00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:09.119 to be walked on a leash and play really dirty, 3 00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:12.519 kinky sex games. He's uh the guy put the cock 4 00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:17.920 in the peacock network. Okay, bitch, Hey, everybody aj bens 5 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:19.879 are here with fame, is it? Bitch? This is your 6 00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:25.800 daily unfiltered podcast for Valentine's Day. Oh to one four 7 00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:31.559 two old two five. Hey man, Valentine's Day, wonderful day. 8 00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:35.119 Hope you sent the flowers off to your loved ones, 9 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:38.520 your girl, your wife, your husband, your mother, your fo 10 00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:44.479 who knows? But uh, I like val I like Valentine's Day. 11 00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:48.600 I do. I just think it's a nice thing to, uh, 12 00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:50.640 to get involved with. Not that you have to have 13 00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:53.920 a date and go for the overpriced dinner and instead 14 00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:57.679 of getting a dozen roses for whatever it is, forty 15 00:00:57.759 --> 00:01:02.359 bucks now because you know eighty five, you know, get 16 00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:07.239 your Valentine's flowers a week a week and a half before. Really, 17 00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:10.640 it's such bullshit. There's no reason to pay that kind 18 00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:14.879 of money. They just they kill us. Same thing happens 19 00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:19.640 when Italians cook the seafood dinner during Christmas time. My god, 20 00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:25.879 seafood shoots up to the point where it's like, come on, why. 21 00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:30.680 I understand these shopkeepers need more money and it's a 22 00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:34.799 perfect time to pump up a price. I get it, 23 00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.760 but I don't know they're all making money. Why why 24 00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.439 go after a certain type of person during a certain 25 00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:47.480 type of holiday. Just doesn't seem right, doesn't seem right. Well, 26 00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:50.159 my flowers went out, and I'm happy to say it 27 00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:54.640 was not the ridiculous sums of money they charged for 28 00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:57.599 a day or two or four before Valentine's Day, so 29 00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:00.680 you know what, and then she goes would always do 30 00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:09.479 something he called the cheaters, the cheers bouquet. She would 31 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:13.560 always come back with flowers from the supermarket for his girlfriend, 32 00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:16.520 because you know, he had to apologize a lot. So 33 00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.000 when you buy your flowers from Ralph's or you know, 34 00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:25.199 Pigley Wiggly, whatever your supermarket chain is, girls could tell 35 00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:29.039 this is not really the flowers, you know, but what 36 00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:32.080 you really want, guys, is a girl that says, don't 37 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:35.599 you dare send flowers? Don't you send me anything that's 38 00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.919 gonna die in six days? That's you know, one hundred 39 00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:42.280 and ten dollars. Don't let's just go to dinner with 40 00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:46.080 that money. Meanwhile, one hundred and ten bucks, what does 41 00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:49.120 that catch your dinner anymore? I mean, really, it's just 42 00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:57.039 two weeks ago. I took Tutsi down to Money Line Pizza. Right. 43 00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:01.039 We always go there, Me and Andrew and the two 44 00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:04.400 dogs would eat there. And you know, it's not a 45 00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:06.560 not a big nut when you eat there. It's a 46 00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:10.520 pizza joint. But they also have pastas and salads and heroes, 47 00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:13.439 so you sit down. You know, they have something I 48 00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:19.840 really love called the chef's board. It's got puttshoot, those salami. Uh, 49 00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:25.639 great cheese is buffalo mudzadel Uh, some peppers on his side, 50 00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:28.919 Cordny shones. I don't know why I'm saying it so far, 51 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:33.400 little fucking pickles. They got things like that that you 52 00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:37.360 picked on. And they got the great cheese scamouche, which 53 00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:41.599 I think is really called Cavallo cheese, but we call 54 00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:45.360 it skimutz because it hangs from the deli counters in 55 00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.240 this wax case and that's kumuz. But you know I 56 00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:50.919 did that, and I'm like, I don't know if she's 57 00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.560 you need all that, because who knows. Let me get 58 00:03:54.599 --> 00:04:01.479 a salad for myself. A Salahatsalami Mudzadel. You know simple regae. 59 00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:06.439 I'm not a simple oil and vinegar situation. And then 60 00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:08.800 I go just to make sure she's gonna eat. Let 61 00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:13.240 me get a little sided grilled chicken one hundred and 62 00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:17.680 twenty six dollars for me and my dog. Now, look, 63 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.959 I spend no expense for Tutsi, for Tutsi testarosa. But 64 00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:27.519 you know, if your woman tells you, don't you dare 65 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:30.959 buy me flowers. Let's just go to dinner with that money, 66 00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:36.439 or let's do something together. You know, she's right, don't 67 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:39.439 fall into the category. If I've got to get the flowers, 68 00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:43.439 it's voluntarist. Don't do that. Don't do that. I think 69 00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:45.480 women like when you do things on your own and 70 00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:48.279 make your own plan and skirt the whole tradition. I 71 00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:53.600 think that's more sexy, ladies. What do you think now? 72 00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:56.639 Last night I got some shit. I had some shit 73 00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:58.839 last night. I went to Roccos game with my daughter 74 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:02.319 Roxy and was great. He had a great game. I 75 00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:04.079 think he had twelve points, but it was the way 76 00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:08.199 he played. Some steals, some assists, and the gym was rocking. 77 00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.759 It was a home game. These guys are undefeated in 78 00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:14.920 the league, play two more game, one tonight and one 79 00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:19.079 on the fifth on wait, one tonight and one tomorrow, 80 00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:21.800 and I leave on the fifteenth. So he's doing well, 81 00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:24.759 and Roxy's with me, and we're watching him. We hear 82 00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:27.439 the girls behind us calling Rocco's name, like, you know, 83 00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.560 like these cheerleaders are like mentioning his name. You could 84 00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:33.920 tell they like him. And I said, oh, I never 85 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.959 heard this is great. Roxy thought it was so cute. 86 00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:41.560 So I felt I did not say this last night, right, No, 87 00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:45.720 I did the no. No. I I tape this before 88 00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.399 the game, maybe because I'm playing in my head so much. 89 00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:50.240 I feel like I talked about it. But you know, 90 00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:55.399 they're behind us, and I tape me and Roxy on video, 91 00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:59.879 but like I'm angling the camera to get them about 92 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.480 two or three steps above us on the bleachers. And 93 00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:07.600 I showed people that and apparently I'm a dirty old 94 00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.519 man and I shouldn't do that. And what are you 95 00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:15.199 thinking it's so embarrassing. It's not embarrassing. You know. Here's 96 00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:17.199 what I know for a fact, because I've been in 97 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.079 rock those shoes, and I, god do I wish I 98 00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:24.040 can go back to high school basketball and just dump 99 00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:29.639 me back to a day, a week, a game, a 100 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:32.720 bus ride. I want to remember what that was like. 101 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.120 I just, you know, the squeak of the sneakers on 102 00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:39.000 the gym floor brings me right back to that era. 103 00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:42.839 I see cheerleaders talking and I'm just, oh God, this 104 00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:45.279 is the best I know. I live in the past, 105 00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.000 and I'm not talking about some guy who was like 106 00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:51.279 the best player on the team. I was all County. 107 00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:54.399 That wasn't me, But I just remember how great it was. 108 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:57.759 So when I take videos and pictures and I'm already 109 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:02.079 putting them together to make pictures for Rocco and maybe 110 00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:04.600 even a video for him when the season is completely 111 00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:07.680 done and I have time get it professionally done, I 112 00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.040 think I'm doing the right thing. He's gonna love to 113 00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:13.240 see his coach, you know, making fun of them in 114 00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.199 the heart a log getting pissed off at one of 115 00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:17.480 the players, and he's gonna even like the fact that 116 00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:19.879 there were a couple of cheerleaders above us who were 117 00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:23.160 mentioning his name. I don't care what people say. I 118 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:26.079 know in my heart I'm not filming them because they're 119 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:29.319 I don't even want to say it. I'm just filming 120 00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:32.480 them because they're mentioning my son's name a lot. But 121 00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:34.480 I get cold of dirty old man. This is not 122 00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:41.279 you're embarrassing the kids. Why why? And I told Roxy, 123 00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:45.720 I'm like, your father was so crazy like Rocco, Yes 124 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.439 he likes girls, but he's not really vocal about it. 125 00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:51.759 I'm the one who goes you didn't see the cheerleader 126 00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.560 with the brown hair, with the with the blonde streaks. No, 127 00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:59.360 you don't know her. She's like this high, this tall, 128 00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:01.680 this you know. I don't. I don't know who you're 129 00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:06.680 talking about. I would know every cheerleader. And when God, 130 00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.920 when there were timeouts on the court and me and Kenny, 131 00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:13.879 my buddy Marv would sit there and the coach is 132 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:16.079 telling us what we gotta do in this time out. 133 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:19.160 This is very important. I want number two going here 134 00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:21.920 for is gonna cut across. It should be an open layup. 135 00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:25.160 And all we're doing is looking at the cheerleader's Sue 136 00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:32.080 and Nino, Jamie Powers, Jennifer Stewart, Kathy Craiger. And there 137 00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:33.679 was a drill down a drill. There was a cheer 138 00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:36.799 where they bent over and yelled our names out. And 139 00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:41.000 when the hot cheerleader like Sue or Kathy or Jamie 140 00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:43.919 or Lisa Royd. It was another one. My goodness, she 141 00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:46.879 ended up marrying Mike Cestaro, the half back on our 142 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:51.879 football team. When they called your name, oh my god, 143 00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:56.039 it was everything. I don't know. These kids don't seem 144 00:08:56.159 --> 00:09:00.080 to I don't know what it is to me. That 145 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:02.840 was everything I told you in the past. I used 146 00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.480 to have my friend Ronnie Misseli go across the court. 147 00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.759 I'd say, commute, see that girl four steps up to 148 00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:11.200 the right of the girl in the purple, get her number. 149 00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:13.320 Tell a number forty four wants to call it. I 150 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.360 had all the numbers on my sneakers. You know. The 151 00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.720 narcissism was gross. But had a ball, had a bull. 152 00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:26.240 But am I wrong to want to tape that stuff 153 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:30.879 for prosperity? I don't think so. Not enough is said 154 00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:35.960 for not only fathers who make every game, but fathers 155 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:40.799 who end up watching every game through one eye or 156 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:44.399 through a camera lens. Not enough is said because if 157 00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:46.799 somebody else was taping the whole game, I wouldn't bother. 158 00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:50.720 I'd be right there, two eyes on every play. But no, 159 00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:53.559 I've got to work the camera. Delete something that was 160 00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:56.679 in a good play, Exit out, come back, you know, 161 00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:02.480 record again. It's it's a little daunting, but it's worth 162 00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:06.440 it anyhow. I don't even know if we're going to 163 00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:08.399 be here in the next seven years. You've heard about 164 00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:12.679 this killer asteroid coming. It's called a city Killer. Why 165 00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:17.480 are four twenty twenty four. They say it could hit Earth, 166 00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:20.600 it might even hit the Moon. But then when you 167 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:22.639 get to the fine print, they go, well, it's just 168 00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:28.240 over a two percent impact probability on Earth. Okay, then 169 00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:32.519 should we really be worrying about this. It's the size 170 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:38.000 of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and they say it 171 00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:41.360 would have around a one and forty eight chance of 172 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:46.279 striking the Earth on December twenty second, twenty thirty two. 173 00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:51.679 So forget climate change, forget anything else. You're worried about 174 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:56.639 the city Killer, the asteroid that's apparently coming here. And 175 00:10:56.679 --> 00:10:59.960 if it hits the moon, well, I mean, Denver can 176 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:05.480 completely screwed. But they're doing simulations on YouTube what have you. 177 00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:08.200 If you look at it, be careful to look at 178 00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:11.639 it because it's very scary. You know, It's just it's 179 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:17.039 like a goddamn Roland Emeric film. It's just a disaster flick. 180 00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:19.919 You gotta be careful when you watch this. But something 181 00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:23.000 that has a two percent chance of hitting us, that 182 00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:26.440 would be like me warning you I might start dating 183 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:30.639 beyond cosen. Sorry, why, well, I think I got a 184 00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:35.120 two percent chance if I get nearer. So, but the 185 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:37.840 newspapers love putting this shit out there because you know 186 00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:45.080 it is what. It is so biblically raining here in 187 00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:47.399 Los Angeles, and it's been raining for a week or so. 188 00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:54.000 But today I have to go into my storage unit jackets. 189 00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:56.639 I have a couple of leathers that I have to 190 00:11:56.679 --> 00:11:59.480 wear because you can't wear a hoodie out there. You 191 00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:04.600 your hoodie gets soaked. It's bad. It's really raining hard, 192 00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:11.360 and I don't know. I wanted to call. Yesterday, I 193 00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:13.759 had a guy come in and fix my ceiling fan 194 00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:17.600 in the dining room. The cord broke off inside the 195 00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:20.639 whole unit. And he came and he did his thing, 196 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:23.120 and I gave him twenty bucks. He's like, look twenty no, 197 00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:26.360 I said, come on, take it, No, I saides, come on, 198 00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:29.639 I believe in the twenty dollar bill. I believe in 199 00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:32.159 that for years. When you see a bartender, you're give 200 00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:34.399 him that ahead of time. So when he sees you coming, 201 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:37.840 makes your drink right away. I believed that with Dormant. 202 00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:40.759 I always give a doorman twenty bucks. Sometimes, when I 203 00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:43.759 was really being an asshole, I would have Chico give 204 00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:45.840 him the money instead of me, because I thought I 205 00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:50.519 was Frank Sinatra and Chico was Jilly. I know it's stupid, 206 00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:54.919 but yeah, Palla corrupts whatever you want to say. But yeah, 207 00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:58.200 it's awful out here today, And I'm like, do I 208 00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:02.480 even call the handyman to come back? Because the fan 209 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:05.360 was fixed? But it's only fixed in the sense that 210 00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:09.720 it comes on, but only one speed, the fast speed 211 00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:14.159 where the fan is shaken and napkins blow off your table. 212 00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:18.759 The other two speeds then I fixed. Do I clone back? 213 00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:22.919 I feel like it's like, I feel like you come 214 00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.000 here and think, what an asshole You're worried about the 215 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:29.799 speed of your fan. I don't know. I'm up in 216 00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:32.159 the air about it. But nothing's gonna happen today. But 217 00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:38.799 this rain here's something I'm thrilled about. A lot of 218 00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:43.360 people thought Marvel Studios was really going to get back 219 00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:48.559 to making fewer films but more high quality films. Right. 220 00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.279 That was the edict, That was the word and now 221 00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:57.840 apparently people who've seen Captain America Brave New World, the 222 00:13:57.879 --> 00:14:03.200 word is out. It's absolute shit. It's very, very dire 223 00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:08.519 over there at that studio because the Great well, I 224 00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:11.039 want to say the great, I mean in his mind, 225 00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:15.960 the Great Anthony Mackie. This is his first big screen 226 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:22.000 crack at Captain America. And no, it's awful. And I 227 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:23.960 could have told you it was awful. Matter of fact, 228 00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:26.080 I said it a week ago on the show. No 229 00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:29.200 one wants to see a black Captain America. I'm sorry. 230 00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:32.159 It doesn't make me a racist, that just makes me 231 00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:38.279 cognizant of people's opinions. I don't even think black people 232 00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:41.320 are calling for a black Captain America. I really don't. 233 00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:47.679 But there we go, movie studios. I just think, enough 234 00:14:47.879 --> 00:14:52.720 with the superhero comic book movies. Stop feeding the nerds. 235 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:56.799 You've gotten enough. You've gotten more than your fair share 236 00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:00.919 of movies that you know, I know, made you shut 237 00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:03.000 the door in your room and hold up that comic 238 00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:08.879 book with one hand. I know. But this shit movie 239 00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:14.720 is really important because Captain America films on their own, 240 00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:19.759 I understand, do very well. But this one they're saying 241 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:25.600 is the worst by a wide margin. I'm not gonna 242 00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:27.919 say it's only because he's black. I'm not gonna go 243 00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:32.559 that far. But I just think they're going to the 244 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:40.559 well too often. And you just can't plugging people into 245 00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:45.320 a superhero role because you want to satisfy DEI standards. 246 00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:48.919 And that's exactly what this was about. And a guy 247 00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:54.039 like you know, Mackie, isn't going to admit that, because 248 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.600 then he'd have to know that, well, I'm not really 249 00:15:56.639 --> 00:15:59.440 good enough, but they needed somebody black in that spot. 250 00:15:59.879 --> 00:16:04.559 He asked to know that. Come on, man, it's it's ridiculous. 251 00:16:05.759 --> 00:16:07.759 They got a guy in this movie that's supposed to 252 00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:11.720 be the comic relief. He's not stupid jokes like should 253 00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:18.000 I make your phone tech larger? Really? Who wrote that joke? Christ? 254 00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:22.120 It's so bad? And of course you got Harrison Ford 255 00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:28.279 in there. You know what, Harrison Ford replaces William Hurt. 256 00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:31.399 The both of these guys, as great as they were 257 00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:35.600 in the eighties, they're not great anymore. They mail it 258 00:16:35.639 --> 00:16:39.919 in now, William Hurt and Harrison Ford. And this is 259 00:16:39.960 --> 00:16:45.000 not like to put them down. They've always only been themselves. 260 00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:49.960 Kevin Costa plays Kevin cost Harrison plays himself. William Hurt 261 00:16:50.000 --> 00:16:52.320 does as well. When you go to some other actors 262 00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:55.039 who changed their face, they look, their accent, their walk. 263 00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:58.159 That's a different kind of actor. I like those actors 264 00:16:58.279 --> 00:17:02.559 way better. Harrison Ford now is an eighty year old 265 00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:06.680 man who you can tell maybe he has his wits 266 00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:09.480 about him when he's hanging out with his wife. I 267 00:17:09.480 --> 00:17:15.480 don't know, just being his typical wry self. Could be 268 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.240 a fun guy to sit around with. But you throw 269 00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:20.440 him in a movie or a TV show, I can't 270 00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:25.599 watch what's it called shrinked? I can't. I can't watch it. 271 00:17:27.559 --> 00:17:30.319 I just know that Harrison Ford is doing it for 272 00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:33.559 the money now, for the paycheck. His heart, his passion 273 00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:36.720 is no longer wrapped up in acting. So he's in there, 274 00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:42.799 and you know what, Look, Harrison Ford had a tremendous run. 275 00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:48.119 He was very good in the eighties, tolerable in the nineties. 276 00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:51.119 We don't need him now, we just don't. We've got 277 00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:54.039 to stop acting like he's sorely needed in movies. He's 278 00:17:54.079 --> 00:18:00.640 not water Break, which sounds weird with all this water down. 279 00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:05.079 But oh, by the way, I wanted to tell you 280 00:18:05.119 --> 00:18:08.559 more about Chelsea Handler. Yesterday I began to tell you, 281 00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:12.240 and I kind of pewed it out, but I really 282 00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:16.400 listened to the podcast with her on Armchair Expert and 283 00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:20.039 really got to like her for just how silly she 284 00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:22.640 can be and the thing she says to people that 285 00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:26.200 the prank she plays on people, and she plays some 286 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:28.599 big pranks. When you've got a lot of money, you 287 00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:32.000 can do huge pranks that last a long time. And 288 00:18:32.079 --> 00:18:35.799 it reminded me of this is kind of in vogue 289 00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:42.039 now because Kanye West has a website that's selling one item. 290 00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:49.599 It's a Nazi swastika T shirt, white background, black swastika. 291 00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:53.640 I don't want it. I'm not a Nazi. I love 292 00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:56.960 the Jewish people. The Nazis were fucking awful, but there's 293 00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:01.160 something in me that wants the shirt. It has nothing 294 00:19:01.160 --> 00:19:03.920 to do with my feelings towards the Jewish faith. I 295 00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:06.680 love my Jewish friends. In fact, I put them right 296 00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:09.400 after Italians. I really do. We have a lot in 297 00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:12.799 common with family and this and that, And I wish 298 00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:14.599 my family had more jew in that. I wish my 299 00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:17.400 father and mother knew had more Jewish qualities. I'd know 300 00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:20.799 more about money, I know about the market. That the 301 00:19:20.839 --> 00:19:22.759 market in our house was where they were selling the 302 00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:25.559 best steak, the best plant. That was the market talk. 303 00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:29.279 It wasn't about what's what's what does this cost? Now? 304 00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:32.240 How much is this? It's a different world. So it's 305 00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:36.720 not about me being anti Jewish. No, but why is 306 00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:40.559 it I want that swastika shirt. Obviously it can never 307 00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:44.519 be worn, just like my Trump shirt got me PEPPI 308 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:50.480 sprayed and punched the swastika shirt. No, of course, not horrible, 309 00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:54.799 but I do harken back to that dinner I had 310 00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:57.680 years ago in New York City with a guy named 311 00:19:57.759 --> 00:20:00.799 Ralph Schaller who was a big execut well not exactly. 312 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:05.240 He owned a meat company Shaller. I think it was 313 00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:10.440 Shallar meats, like you know, the best beef, pork veal. 314 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:16.400 Ralph Shaler supplied so many New York restaurants and stores 315 00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:20.160 with the best coal cotts, the best steaks, the best everything. 316 00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:23.359 So we go to his house for dinner. He's a 317 00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:27.680 wild man, and I knew that he was an avid hunter, 318 00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:31.640 I mean a big like big game elephants and shit, 319 00:20:31.960 --> 00:20:36.039 that kind of hunter. And I know that he would 320 00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:41.119 beg these animals and drain them of their blood, and 321 00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:45.680 he would ship the blood to the artist Peter Beard, who, 322 00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:48.720 if you don't know, used to do a lot of 323 00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:52.799 artwork with smeared blood instead of paint. And that blood 324 00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:55.279 was animal blood. Well it was supplied by Ralph Sharlow. 325 00:20:55.480 --> 00:20:58.359 So I get to Schalla's place on the Upper east Side, 326 00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:02.559 beautiful building with a white building with one red door 327 00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:07.200 like Elizabeth Arden, just a red door, and everything in 328 00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:13.279 this apartment was so wrong or illegal or both. I mean, 329 00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:17.680 I'm looking at end tables that are are you a 330 00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:21.000 plate of glass, but they're being held up with a 331 00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:27.200 gigantic elephant foot real taxidermy elephant, if you forget the 332 00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:29.400 size of the elk and the moose and everything else 333 00:21:29.440 --> 00:21:32.000 on his wall. He had a great room in Manhattan. 334 00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:36.039 It's a three story townhouse that would just marvel any 335 00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:39.400 hunt or anywhere in America. And on top of that 336 00:21:39.960 --> 00:21:42.960 is if that's not enough. At one point he says, 337 00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:46.759 I got to show you guys something, and he takes 338 00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:49.359 us around the corner from the kitchen into the dining 339 00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:52.519 room and there's his back wall where there's a long 340 00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:57.440 picture about three feet long and about ten inches high. 341 00:21:58.039 --> 00:22:00.839 Because it's a group shot, it's a big group shot, 342 00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:04.359 not of a ball club, but of a klu Klux 343 00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:09.519 ku klux Klan rally. Ku klux did I say ku 344 00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:12.440 kux Klan? I used to say klu klux Klan as 345 00:22:12.480 --> 00:22:17.240 a kid, Ku kux Klan meeting with the hoods and 346 00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:21.160 the torches and a tree with the noose and a 347 00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:26.799 person hanging in from that tree. It was very unsettling. 348 00:22:28.200 --> 00:22:31.960 Nobody would want that art or that picture in the house. 349 00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:35.319 But can I tell you something. I couldn't stop looking 350 00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:39.000 at it because I couldn't believe that this country was 351 00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:44.720 ever at a point like that. What they call strange fruit. 352 00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.440 Billy Howell, they called black folks that hung from trees 353 00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:52.440 strange fruit. That's why that song I didn't know. As 354 00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:54.400 a kid. I loved the song, but I didn't know 355 00:22:54.480 --> 00:23:01.200 that's what it meant. You can't want the picture, but 356 00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:05.039 there's something about it that I wanted to keep looking 357 00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:09.799 at it. And then the piece the resist stones said 358 00:23:09.839 --> 00:23:15.519 the Frenchman looked under your plates that were eating That 359 00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:20.079 china you have under it had a Nazi symbol. It 360 00:23:20.160 --> 00:23:26.200 was china from Hitler, not from him specifically, but it 361 00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:29.839 was Nazi China. Even that china had the swastika on 362 00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:34.720 the bottom. Wow. I mean, we weren't told ahead of time, 363 00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:38.720 we weren't warned, we knew he was eccentric, et cetera. 364 00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:43.279 But yeah, man, crazy, crazy. I forget why I got 365 00:23:43.279 --> 00:23:46.359 to this point with Uh. I was talking about Chelsea 366 00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:50.359 Handler and different, oh, different things she's doing and the 367 00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:54.279 way okay here, I know why Kanye has been just 368 00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:58.759 talking Jewish hate and Nazi love and he just will 369 00:23:58.759 --> 00:24:02.160 not quit. And it reminds me of when me and 370 00:24:02.200 --> 00:24:04.519 Michael Lwoit is that the New York Daily News would 371 00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:07.799 just feel like being a couple of pricks, and we'd 372 00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:11.920 be in an elevator headed down, and when someone walked 373 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:16.359 in the elevator, we would do this ridiculous back and 374 00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:18.839 forth where there'd be silenced for a second or two, 375 00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:22.119 and then Michael or myself would say, I get the 376 00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.559 fact that you think Hitler was misunderstood. I completely understand 377 00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:29.880 that point. MY only argument toward that, and then the 378 00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:32.000 doors would open up and we walk out as if 379 00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:36.720 we were having a really, really good discussion about Hitler. 380 00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:40.920 It was so crazy, but we heard people huffing and 381 00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:44.400 puffing as we left, or we'd walk in an elevator 382 00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:47.359 as people were there are really, Is that right? Yeah? No, 383 00:24:47.480 --> 00:24:50.200 I know he was a painter, but I didn't know 384 00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:54.000 Hitler was such a great painter with it was watercolor. 385 00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:57.359 Oh oh my god. Matter of fact, his watercolor pictures 386 00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:00.000 should be in a goddamn museum. That's how wonderful hit 387 00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:04.039 was is a painter, Sistra Floor. I mean, we drove 388 00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:06.920 people crazy, but we also did something that made only 389 00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:09.359 us laugh, and I love it to this day. When 390 00:25:09.400 --> 00:25:11.519 we had an enemy of the column or someone that 391 00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:13.640 said something about the column we didn't like. You know, 392 00:25:13.720 --> 00:25:16.759 we used to do or I used to send them 393 00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:23.680 canned hams. I don't know what they cast back then, 394 00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:28.039 twelve bucks whatever it was or not only canned hams. 395 00:25:28.160 --> 00:25:31.240 When a person gets them, can you imagine their face? 396 00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:36.079 What am I who? And there's no return address, just 397 00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:39.720 a canned ham in your mail. And then on top 398 00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:46.799 of that, we'd send we'd find these magazines where you could, 399 00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:51.400 you know, subscribe to magazines and which magazines would you like? 400 00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:54.519 And you pay whatever, twenty bucks, fifteen bucks a month 401 00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:57.039
