It was called. It was like, you know, basically a Philly cheese. I do feel like gas station food has been upgraded.
00:03:40
Speaker
It's not like it used to be. It's like better now. It is. And this fucking, it was like made with barbecued brisket and cheese and like sat spicy peppers and had a, so it was fucking phenomenal. And like, this huh shouldn't be that good. Right. Right.

That's how much, you know.
00:07:19
Speaker
When I'm hope it does happen In a nursing home and somebody shits themselves for the first time and I'll be like, it's like that, um what's his name? ah What's his name? Fucking Franco, James Franco.
00:07:31
Speaker
he's in the eighty he's like He's getting hung in that movie and he's like, first time? and they got Oh yeah, yeah. That's gonna be me. First time? Yeah. There was one time when I was drinking alcohol in Dr. Lido. I was in Rockville Center drinking Magna Ciders. Got a little wet in my pants. Contrary to belief, ciders don't make me shit myself. Sometimes they do. And I just coughed. And I shit myself. Okay, Grandpa Ron, we got to get you to bed. It's okay. He's telling his shit story again. Oh, no. Mr. Prendamano, it's time for bed. I don't want you. I might shit myself. You ever done that? You ever had dream where you shit yourself?
00:08:08
Speaker
No, not shit. Yeah, I had a dream shit myself. But other things. i who I woke up and um I did not shit myself in real life. So that was a win. That's good.
00:08:18
Speaker
That was a win. know. This is how we start off 2026, me shitting myself. It's one thing to pee the bed all the time. It's another thing to shit the bed. I have peed bed before. Yeah. Of course. Like, who hasn't? I mean, I haven't. But like, who hasn't? no, I was... a i was I was like sleepwalking and I thought I was in the bathroom peeing and I came to consciousness and I realized I was peeing on my comforter in my bedroom. Oh yeah.
00:08:42
Speaker
Yep. that That's kind of how it is. it's It's like you think you're at a bathroom in your dream and so you think you're safe. Yep. And was there alcohol involved? Yes, there was. ma I don't have a problem.
00:08:54
Speaker
I don't. I don't have problem. Just how many good stories contain alcohol? Yeah. He's drinking water in his Bucky's cup. No, I'm not. No, i yeah I'm not. I'm trying to save you. not going to lie to the people. There's also a fire off. It's nighttime on the East Coast. 2026. We ain't going to lie. 1140 p.m. on the East Coast.
00:09:12
Speaker
Oh, actually, there's something. um i I know we have a few things on the schedule already, but I wanted to. but I kind of have this. I of have this interesting New Year's resolution.
00:09:25
Speaker
Maybe we could fit it in because it is the first. I would normally say, oh, let's talk about it in next episode. But because it's the first 2026 episode, I do have a resolution as well. I don't normally make them. So if you wanted to talk about it, we absolutely can.
00:09:37
Speaker
So there are exceptions to this resolution. Go on. okay Now, it's it's it's a very stick-up-for-myself resolution. Okay. I don't know if other people... I know. I know. i'm like um But the thing is, this might apply to people in the industry or just... let me Let me explain. So I feel like this could apply to anyone, but especially in the industry. I'm kind of done if I, let's say...
00:10:05
Speaker
want to meet up with someone like in my case, if it's like a producer, someone that like, oh, I really want to take a meeting with this person. And if that said person says, oh, yeah, ah totally down to meet up with you. i should be free in a couple months.
00:10:22
Speaker
I say no. I say, nope, not meeting with you in a couple months. Because if you can't have one damn coffee with me for 20 minutes, I got to wait months to have a coffee with you.
00:10:35
Speaker
then we're we're never going to find time to work together. And that goes for just anyone I'm trying to network with. Now that now the exception goes, like like for instance, I've pitched television before. And so if it's with a studio where like they're actually considering me like as far as, um oh yeah, we do want to meet up with Robert. This is the only timeframe we have.
00:10:58
Speaker
And this is where it can get a little bit like wishy-washy because it's like, well, how can I tell when this person is going to be available? Like, is it true? Are they actually only available months from now? If it's an official meeting, I could say, sure.
00:11:11
Speaker
But if it's like, hey, let's just grab a coffee or something, answer's no. Answer's like, well, then we're not meeting up. Is that your resolution? Yeah, it's kind of like putting my foot down.
00:11:22
Speaker
you know you know been Open to making changes. to You know your worth and you're not going to put me on the back burner. you're either going to meet with with me now or we're not going to do it. Okay, I can respect that. yeah I can absolutely respect that. My resolution is nothing like that. but Well, like for instance, like let's just say you were an executive and and I was trying to meet up with you for coffee. If you put me, if you say, yeah, I'll meet up with coffee like three months from now, the answer is no, Ron. I'm not. and And I would be polite about it. I'd be like, hey,
00:11:50
Speaker
i I really don't want to, I would have to word it better, but I would basically be saying, I don't want to wait three months to meet up. But let's say you were, you know, in your executive position. If I was like, Hey, I want to pitch you an idea. And you're like, Oh yeah, absolutely. Let me put you in the schedule at the studio to meet with me.
00:12:08
Speaker
And guess what? It's going to be two months from now. That's okay. Cause I just feel like, does that make sense? It does. It does a little more, um, set in stone, I guess you could say. Yeah. It's more like the company.
00:12:22
Speaker
A few months, you know? Yeah. that I get that. I understand. yeah What if it was like a big executive though? Like somebody like like if Spielberg, yeah. Let's say Spielberg for the sake of the name, Ron Howard, somebody.
00:12:34
Speaker
That's an interesting take because I feel that if we're getting to that level with Spielberg or Ron Howard, um i feel like the Korean director Park, is that his name? He did Parasite. I think that's the guy.
00:12:44
Speaker
Oh, oh yeah, that guy. He's great. or how yeah he's he's So people at that level, I would consider not just because, ooh, it's Steven Spielberg, but because people at that level, I don't think would waste their time making fake appointments with people. Yeah, because their time is valuable. Which I could be wrong. I could be wrong. I mean, their time is valuable and maybe more valuable feel like they would just say no. Yeah. Yeah.
00:13:06
Speaker
I feel like Spielberg would be like, no, I don't want to meet up for coffee. Like he would just say it. Yeah. He wouldn't. He doesn't need to beat around the bush anymore. Yeah. um I would like to think their word is a little bit more. I have to commend you. I mean, you know, you're worth and you're not going to be, you know, you've been in the industry for quite some time and you're like, you're not going you're not going to pull me around. You're to fuck with me. and i I can get behind that.
00:13:26
Speaker
Yeah. It's going to be a case by case basis, but that's basically it. My resolution h is um nothing like that. Okay.
Ron's 2026 Resolution: Enjoying Live Music
00:13:36
Speaker
My resolution is to, very simple, and I don't normally make New Year's resolutions because I don't believe in a year-by-year thing. i kind of believe in more of a day-by-day.
00:13:45
Speaker
um i My resolution is to see more live music. Interesting. Okay, I like that. Even it's like a little jazz club or something like that, or just a local band who's starting to make it. I enjoy live music. I try to go to Jazz Fest in New Orleans.
00:14:03
Speaker
<unk>h I have gone to jazz clubs here in New York. My cousin's cousin is a professional jazz singer, and I've seen her perform a bunch of times. Oh, cool. Yeah. So I, I like live music. I need to do it more, whether it's a free event or I'm paying, know, $150 a ticket. I need to do it. So that's resolution. Okay, that's pretty cool. See more live music, yeah.
00:14:27
Speaker
That's cool. Well, I like that one. That one's a lot more fun than mine. Thanks. Mine's little more, but yeah. um But another thing, a question I wanted to ask you, um which by the way, as far as jazz music goes, I mean, you can't beat that in New York City. No, that's Chicago, New Orleans, Montreal. I mean, you there's, yeah.
00:14:48
Speaker
I remember I went to a jazz bar, like typical old school guy at a piano, women leaning, a woman leaning on it, singing like typical. It was great. Oh yeah. I loved it.
00:14:58
Speaker
Yeah. It's a, yeah, loved it. You know, kind of flirting with the pianist a little bit, but you know, yeah just the sulkiness of the song. Yeah. That's, yeah, that's pretty cool. That's fun. Yeah. those But he, you know, he's gay and they're just playing a part. Um, yeah but yeah, not always, not always.
00:15:15
Speaker
I love a gay pianist. Really? Yeah. Really? We're doing that? yeah like this is the This is prime comedy. This is this is comedy gold, Rob. This is also, like I just say, this this is the first time this is the first time we've recorded in the evening. This is the latest we've ever recorded yeah Our schedule is just saying as Rob dies. true we are just We are just as funny. I got Diet Coke. It's fine. i I mean, these are my hours. I'm usually working at these hours. I'm up at these hours. This is good for me. this is I think I'm a morning person. Yeah, I know you are. It's annoying as shit. Can you tell my energy is way low? Well, you're sick as well. You're sick. You just got off work. that's true. and That's true.
00:15:56
Speaker
You're trying to carry me on Diet Coke right now. Me, I'm over here. I just finished watching the Miami Ole Miss game. Go Canes. Very good. Canes. Go Raising Canes. No, you're not Raising Canes.
00:16:07
Speaker
um Oh, sorry. Miami beat Ole Miss was in a great game. ah So they're going to the finals in the college football playoffs. And then, ah what was I saying? Yeah, so i'm um you know um that's my first drink of the night. I'm on my second cup of coffee as well, so I'm i'm awake, man. I'm good.
00:16:24
Speaker
Well, cool. Yeah. um Yeah. Well, i have a story a story I have a story, but I also have a question, and this kind of goes out to other people. This could be a good ah penetrating response, if you will.
Discussion on Petty Behavior and Viral Stories
00:16:36
Speaker
um How petty are you?
00:16:39
Speaker
like How petty am I? Yeah. And it kind of goes out to our listeners because I am I will admit before you give your answer, I am extremely petty. Like I will get into like childish behavior depending on the situation. And it's usually when there is a bully or like someone who's being really bitchy.
00:17:01
Speaker
That's when the pettiness comes out. I have been petty before. But like I'm not usually that petty. i'm not It's not worth it to me.
00:17:12
Speaker
It's like the people that... like You ever watch like a Karen video where they're like causing ah a ruckus at a fast food place? Yeah. And so I'm the type that would fight to the death to make sure that Karen didn't get what she wanted.
00:17:29
Speaker
But then there are people, and probably more like... regular minded people that will say something like, oh, just let her have it. This is not worth it. Where I would say it is fucking worth it.
00:17:42
Speaker
I will fight tooth and nail to make sure this lady does not get what she wants. that's that So that's the difference. There are the people that are like, oh, let it go. Who cares? Give her the extra drink or extra burger or or pay for her meal. And I'm like, no, I'm never letting her get away with that. I will do whatever I can in my power to make sure she doesn't get it.
00:18:02
Speaker
What do you think about that? ah I mean, you've you've obviously worked for fast food before, so i see that. um I have, like, when was 17. Yeah, did. When I was a kid, when I was younger, i was definitely more petty.
00:18:15
Speaker
Yeah. Like, if somebody pissed me off, I mean, yeah, their food might have fallen on the floor. Might have. Yeah. Proof of that. um But, I mean, now i'm just kind of, like, very dude, very Big Lebowski about it. just whatever, man.
00:18:31
Speaker
fuck That's how I am for the most gotta worried about that shit life goes on, man. you know just But this this brings me to a story on TikTok that went kind of viral, which is also really funny, where there was a woman going into a... This this young lady was going into a parking spot.
00:18:47
Speaker
And next to the parking spot, it's hard to describe on the podcast, but there was like a pole next to her parking spot, and there was a car trying to get her parking spot by going around the... think I saw this super awkward way. It's not like she's totally in the right.
00:19:02
Speaker
This person is doing a weird maneuver through different poles to like beat her to the parking spot. The, the just, just understand the point is she's doing it right. This person's an asshole, but this is where the pettiness comes in. She, so now they're at, you know, nose to nose car, like an and,
00:19:18
Speaker
you know, trying to get this parking spot and she's totally in the right and she is not letting up. And I could not relate to someone more than this lady. And so she does not move from her car and she starts posting on TikTok saying, hey guys, here's the story. And people start like sending her food. People start like, I don't know if they're donating, but everyone is on this, on this girl's side to make sure this other person never gets this parking spot. And Ron, I love it. I would be that person.
00:19:47
Speaker
um mean but it I know, but I, mean the my man, like, what do you gain? Oh, everything principle. I would, in my head, I'd be like, I'm living in this car the rest of my life until this, until this person leaves. That's how bad it is for for me.
00:20:02
Speaker
I will not, I will not let up. I will not let up. I live in my car now. That's what I would say. So, but I also know I'm unreasonable.
00:20:13
Speaker
Yeah. Like I know I'm the wrong one here. Um, I do. There is something that will make me become petty. Yeah. Where let's say it's, I'm at work and it's something completely out of my control.
00:20:27
Speaker
And of course, what we're taught to do is we apologize. No, you apologize to the, cut you apologize for the situation kind of thing. Right. I'm really sorry about that. And one thing that they say that really pisses me off, like,
00:20:41
Speaker
I will become petty if that's the case. I'm really sorry about that. Well, I am too. I hate that. Oh, are you? Are you you hurting me to my core right now? You you fucking cunt. No, that is the first cunt of 2026. Hey, there we go. No, no, sir. You will show. I'm sorry too. Oh, fuck you.
00:21:01
Speaker
What are you sorry for? you do You think I give a fuck they that we're delayed? No, I don't. I don't care. Yeah. Or like the people that are at like Walmart and they're like, I'm never shopping here again. It's like, really? You're never shopping at Walmart again. Also, Walmart will not miss you. Somebody told me recently on one of my flights, like, oh, that's not good for your brand. I'm like, I'm like, it's not me. I don't care.
00:21:24
Speaker
yeah I'm like, this is talking about and this is an aviation thing, not as particular company problem, you dumbass. Yeah. God, like... I don't know. I think people just want to try to get anything to dig. Like, you should feel guilty for this. i Oh, my God. Yeah. Go to hell.
00:21:44
Speaker
Go to hell. Yeah. um But yeah, it's not even like i know customers can be annoying, but it's it's that when someone's really bratty, will out brat them. I guess that's the way. Which I i don't. You've lived in Los Angeles way too long now. Okay. Yeah. is This is you.
00:22:02
Speaker
Yeah. Here in New York, we're just like, go fuck yourself. Bye. Well, yeah, that's what I want to say, but I just don't want them to get what they want because I feel like then they feel entitled to the next time they pull this off. Yeah. Like, I want to cut it off. Yeah, sometimes, i mean, like I said, as as a kid, i would absolutely be petty. But now as an adult, I'm like, the answer's no. That's it. End of story.
00:22:23
Speaker
That's it. Well, what do you mean? No. You know, yeah call the 800 number. That's it. No. The answer's no. Yeah. Well, for me, the answer is I'd be living in my car to make sure I get that parking spot. No, I would just go find another parking spot, walk further, and get my steps in. I don't give a fuck.
00:22:39
Speaker
I'll call them a cunt. I'll flick them off. That's two. And then I'll just walk away. And then they get what they want. Oh, they get what they want. 10 out of 10 people die, Robert. I don't care. Okay. That's the difference. I don't care. we We're literally. Okay. So I guess we better not get a parking spot in the same car together. yeah probably You'll be like, just get another spot. And I'll be like, no, we're like, we'll get out of the car. Robert baby. Let's go. yeah keep going No, I'm not. I'm not leaving. me sweetheart It's not that big of a deal. Just let's go. come on.
00:23:10
Speaker
Maybe you're just more mature than me. Maybe I'll become more mature as I doubt that. I really, really doubt that. um and Maybe in certain situations I am. Yeah, right and definitely in that situation. Yeah, I'm like, all right, you took my parking spot. Go fuck yourself. or I'm not letting have the parking spot. go Oh, well, I don't care.
00:23:27
Speaker
Right. Well, I could talk about something that good that happened to me. Please. I want to hear this. Remember, remember, please something positive. So you remember how I was like talking about, i was like, there's no reason a man has to be naked in the gym locker room. Yes. Yes. I think it's silly. but So I know it is. Everything I say is like not coherent. It's all silly. i mean, like, all right, I'm naked with a bunch of dudes. I know, whatever.
00:23:51
Speaker
Yeah. Look, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that in the gym locker I'm saying there is If they're checking me we have low standards and um thanks, but no thank you. Oh, No. Don't say that. But I just presented my argument that there is a way to never be naked in the gym locker room. But with that said, I was in Arizona and I went to...
00:24:14
Speaker
a gym there. And that gym had the best gym shower I've ever seen. It was like built for me. So my gym currently is older. It's in an older spot. So literally it's like you're in a the open area and then there's a curtain and there's your shower. Like not a community shower. rob Did you get naked for the shower?
00:24:35
Speaker
I do get naked for the shower, but once the curtains close, but it's not a community shower. They're individual showers, but there's just a curtain and that's it. But this one that I went to, now hear me out.
00:24:46
Speaker
You go behind a curtain and you're in like a foyer i've seen first. You have like a little living room first. sogo And then you turn a corner and then turn another corner. This is your own individual shower. I'm not talking about a room. I get it Individual shower. You walk in, you basically have a living room.
00:25:03
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then you you make two rights and there's the shower. There's no way anyone has to see you naked. And you have a whole changing area. You have everything.
00:25:14
Speaker
There's no excuse. I loved it. I was like, why can't my gym have this? It's like my own little apartment. What part of Arizona? I... um like a guess like 40 minutes away from phoenix or so all right i've been to phoenix tempe uh and scottsdale kind of all around oh cool yeah yeah so amazing jim i loved it um i it was like recently kind of recently built so it's just super updated say that again but man super recently kind of recently updated that's what i said
00:25:50
Speaker
Is the audio working? Hello. That's good. i just wanted you to see if you could repeat that. And you did. I was impressed. Oh, yeah. Thank you. ah Anyway, I just wanted to say how ah I want my gym updated. And I think all showers in the gym should have their own living room. So thank you. Yeah.
00:26:06
Speaker
Yeah. Thank you. I win. don't know what I'm talking about. it the same gym company? It is the same gym company. So what's up? Nothing. I was just asking, you know.
00:26:16
Speaker
Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. am I getting angry again? No, you're not getting angry. You're fine. You're fine, sir. You're absolutely fine. I think this Coke's not hitting like I wanted to. um But, ah yeah, there was something else I... oh yeah.
00:26:31
Speaker
Oh, by the way, we do have two penetrating questions that we're going to get to later. yeah yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. There is There it is. There he is. knew he was somewhere.
00:26:42
Speaker
But... um Yeah, maybe. ah yeah Speaking of like anger being mean, this is something I think I meant to ask last time um or last year ah is I've noticed. So I get this is a comedian question.
00:27:00
Speaker
So I get on my algorithm different comics that handle hecklers. Maybe we've talked about this before so we can make it brought up. Yeah. Yeah. And are there I don't know if I want to say their names. No. But there are certain comedians where they always are vicious with the hecklers and not in a not even in like a good way. like a Jimmy Carr type way?
00:27:22
Speaker
Right, right. They're just kind of pissed and they're just like out for blood. fucking love Jimmy Carr. Oh, yeah, I do, too. um There's actually one comedian I'm thinking of where he doesn't come off like clever. He just comes off like really mean. Like, it's not like, oh, I got your back, heckler. It's like, no, you look like an idiot now. Like the heckler did its job. He's making you look stupid. Yeah.
00:27:44
Speaker
And i want i maybe i could tell you his name off the air, but um I don't know if you've seen that before where a comic... you they're either i mean, it's hard to be clever on the spot, right? But I think you can avoid being like mean where you look stupid.
00:28:00
Speaker
So... But it's hard. i mean, you go up there, you put it, you put it all your work to make yourself vulnerable for your routine. And you got some asshole heckling you. Okay. And sometimes there's fun hecklers where they actually contribute to the show and you can bounce off of them and play and it's fun. And then there are ones that are just trying to be, doing oh you're not funny. Like, okay, fuck you.
00:28:19
Speaker
You have a small dick. I don't know what to say. And was i was I wasn't performing. as though I was actually ah there visiting with friends, actually, and they we were going to a comedy show, so we went. And um this guy was heckling hard. Like, he was an asshole. Like, one other comic was like, all right, dude, shut the fuck up.
00:28:36
Speaker
Like, you've had enough. And the guy actually did. He shut up. But you can't let people get under... Like, I had a friend years and years ago, before I started doing comedy, He was having a good set and then a heckler got to him.
00:28:48
Speaker
And he's like, dude, you need to shut the fuck up. Like, whoa, buddy. You gotta keep, like, you have to stay calm. It's hard sometimes. It's really hard. But also, yeah the longer you do comedy, the better you get at dealing with hecklers.
00:29:02
Speaker
Sometimes you know whether to brush them off. Sometimes you you know whether to engage. And sometimes you can turn around and use classic lines like, I remember my first beer. Yeah. Classic things like that that, you know, will normally get a laugh out of crowds.
00:29:15
Speaker
But the whole thing is to not let the heckler become the show. It's your mic. It's your set. It's your stage. Not theirs. Don't let them have any more than you any more than you want them to.
00:29:28
Speaker
Yeah. And they'll only give to them if it makes you look better. you're able to come back with witty contacts and get a laugh out of the crowd, fine. But the moment they start stealing your light, fuck them.
00:29:39
Speaker
Try to get away. Yeah, absolutely. And ah yeah, I think there is this like level of respect between entertainers, too, because don't know. It reminded me. So last Sunday, if people don't know. I'm not sure. Sure. If you know about this, but there's a place called the Magic Castle and the Magic Castle is. I've never heard of this place, but some friends I was talking to, they've she's from California. She's heard of it.
00:30:01
Speaker
She lived in California. So the Magic Castle, it used to be, I think the president the president used to be Neil Patrick Harris actually at the time. I don't think he is anymore. but So just to tell you really quick, the Magic Castle is this big, beautiful like castle-like house in Hollywood. And it is it is an exclusive club for magicians.
00:30:22
Speaker
It is like, yeah, you can only go if you're invited by a member. That's the only way to get in. magicians club? It is a magician's club. Yes, it is. This sounds kinky.
00:30:35
Speaker
It is. No, it's not. It's nice's actually... it's It's really cool, dude. um And if you're a member, you get like a little silver pin. But if you're a magician member, which you have to be invited, ah you have like a gold pin. So you can see who's a magician and who's like a member. Now, oh just because they don't have a gold pin doesn't mean they're not a magician. Just means they weren't like...
00:30:55
Speaker
and, you know, asked to be a part of it. I was talking to one member and they said it was like, it's kind of like the comedy store for magicians, but and more exclusively. Like, yeah, you have to be invited and you can't just up and perform. um So if if you do it if you do get invited there,
00:31:12
Speaker
yeah It probably means you're really fucking good. So anyway, I went and there was this one guy and I'm so sad I forgot his name because he was so good. He kind of looked like Weird Al. But the reason why I even brought this up is because my friend got out now.
00:31:27
Speaker
Weird Al. Okay, with the long hair, not the fro thing. Long hair. Yeah. So, um yeah, so I'm getting, yeah, the whole thing I was getting to with the hecklers and stuff is no one heckled him, but there's this, there's, my friend got asked to be a part of it. Like, oh, I need someone from the audience. And he got brought back down. And this magician is throwing like zingers at him.
00:31:48
Speaker
Like, you know, like kind of like little like jabs, but like in the super funny way, this guy was excellent. He was so funny. And my friend just took it. and Now, my friend's a fellow actor. And afterward, he said exactly what I was thinking. He's like, it's his show.
00:32:02
Speaker
And the last thing I'm going to do is zing him back. Yeah. You know, I'm I am the show right now. I'm a part of his show. If he's going to send zingers at me, i want I want him to look good. I don't want to, like, come back and retort with, like, my sarcasm and then try to up him. like Sure. No.
00:32:22
Speaker
It's his show, and there's that disrespect as entertainers of like, I'm not going to up you. It's your show. And i really I really like that. And I don't know why. It just reminded me of it, of like this kind of like, hecklers, I would imagine, are usually people that don't work in entertainment.
00:32:39
Speaker
Usually not, unless they're planted there. I've been planted as a heckler for a friend before to help his set. like Oh, that's funny. He ended up chokeslamming me on stage. It was pretty fun Oh, perfect. um But as when I'm watching a comedy show, the last thing I ever want to ah happen is for that comic to have their show ruined. Yeah. And I just know that because I'm like, if I was up there, I don't want anyone ruining my set.
00:33:03
Speaker
and but Yeah, it sucks. Yeah, it absolutely does. Yeah. So, but just a little fun story. um Yeah. And ah let's see. Let's see. Cause yeah, I wanted to to talk about that, but um I'm trying to find, cause we, we want to talk about a few things and this kind of gets into my pettiness, your pettiness. Here we go again.
00:33:25
Speaker
Yep. Yeah. My pettiness. I'm going to skip to, uh, um, we have one of our topics, uh, which is about, uh, so we have two topics that I want to discuss. One is like, um, building a campfire and I'm going to elaborate on that. That's what gets into my pettiness. And, um,
00:33:42
Speaker
Kind of like things that ah that woke you up at two in the morning. not Not today, but maybe when you were younger. We'll talk about that in just a moment. um But as far... I'll make this quick with the pettiness and building a campfire. Now, I say building a campfire in this topic because...
00:33:59
Speaker
One of the things that I hate is I hate when people, when I'm trying to learn something on my own and someone just tries to do it for me. And the example I use, tell me if this bothers you. Maybe it doesn't bother you.
00:34:13
Speaker
But I always use the building at campfire as an example because this has happened to me multiple times where you go camping and i am I'm trying to build a fire and I'm genuinely having fun failing at it.
00:34:26
Speaker
Now, I want to get it. Of course, I want the fire to get started, but I'm having failing.
Unsolicited Help: A Campfire Example
00:34:31
Speaker
like trying this, oh, that didn't work. I'll try it this way. Oh, maybe if I you know try to light it like this, maybe I'll do that. I'm having fun. But there's always that fucking fire expert that's got to come over and be like, no, bro, you got to do it like this. And I'm like, get the fuck away from me.
00:34:47
Speaker
Get away from me. Let me have my fun. i hate that. i can agree I can agree with that. I can. um i don't know. It's kind of... yeah Yeah, it's like...
00:34:59
Speaker
Oh, so I don't think he listens to this. So i'll say it anyway. My dad is very big at that. Like he's, you know, he's worked with his hands his whole life construction and I am a dainty little thing. So, you know i have these soft, wonderful flight attendant hands. So, yeah, yeah but he's like, he has man's hands. Sometimes it's like, maybe it's just a thing I have with my dad, but it's just like, let me figure it out myself.
00:35:23
Speaker
I can do this. And I've had, I know what other people do that to me. ah I either do one of two things. so I clap back. I'm like, yo, I got this. Or, fine, you fucking can do that i don't care. Yeah, yeah. That's happened to me before um where just someone tries to show you how to do something too hard and you're like, dude, I'd rather fail and learn from my failure than you harping on me and micromanaging me.
00:35:49
Speaker
That's the thing, like micromanagement. It's like i I will never learn from micromanagement. No, no. And I never i hate being like, oh, you're doing it this way. You're it this Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.
00:36:00
Speaker
Leave me alone. Yep. Yep. I don't, I don't care. i don't care. i don't give a flying fuck. If I fuck up, I fuck up. It's fine. I don't care. i told you I didn't want to do it anyway. Yeah. Yep. Yep. And that's where the pettiness comes in. Um,
00:36:14
Speaker
But yeah, ah this is going to be more funny, though. My hair is crazy, which if you could probably see my hair right now if you're watching us on YouTube or Spotify now.
Nostalgia: Late-night Infomercials and Karaoke
00:36:23
Speaker
Did I mention that earlier? We're totally Spotify. Totally on Spotify video. um That was a weird thing with my tongue.
00:36:31
Speaker
um But anyway, do you can you think of anything that used to you know wake you up at two in the morning when you were a child, Ron? Do you know where i'm getting at? Cicadas.
00:36:45
Speaker
What is that? Is that a chip? No, it's a like the it's like a locus. it's A cicada. They make that sound like it's sundown in Florida. You hear all those humming noises. It's a cicada. Oh, I thought it was a cricket. Kind of similar, but different. yeah Anyway. Grasshopper.
00:37:00
Speaker
Kind of. Anyway, Rob, um'm in the middle of the night. too and What about, um, tell me how am I supposed to live without you? Pure. Does that ring a bell? Pure moods. Yeah. Pure Moods.
00:37:15
Speaker
Oh, yeah. yes And then Celine Dion shows up. oh yeah those Yeah. so Or like 90s dance parties or something like that. Yeah. That should be a karaoke song. man i love juy man love Oh, pump the jam. Pump it up. Listen, those CDs were awesome back then.
00:37:32
Speaker
Oh, yeah. I love the commercial. So. That's what I'm talking about. i'm talking about those romance CDs, baby. And I think that that commercial, can you imagine you know that would be such a hit if that commercial was a karaoke song oh and you have to sing every, everyone would sing along. but I like that. Well, that'd be fun. and That'd be fun. I like that.
00:37:54
Speaker
Yeah, I want to do that. That would be so much fun. um But yeah, i I only know those songs from that from that commercial. So once in a while, I'll break out into that song. Who is that again?
00:38:05
Speaker
Tell me how am I supposed to live without you? um Michael Bolton? No, no, I forget. um And but yeah, i remember. oh yeah, because I'm your lady and you are my man. That would break into it. That's Celine Dion.
00:38:19
Speaker
Two CDs. And you are mine for only $19.95. Tell me how I'm mine. That's what it was. The same people that brought you pure moods, we bring you pure romance.
00:38:31
Speaker
Pure romance, brother. ah um ah So that would wake me up, um but I would enjoy that. But you know what kind of... You know what another thing that would wake me up what is ah you would hear those steel drums.
00:38:45
Speaker
Do you know i'm getting at? No. Reggae hits from the 90s? Yes, you do.
00:38:53
Speaker
You know, it's about some people that have gone wild. Oh! oh Oh! They're young! They're barely legal. Girls Gone Wild? Is that what you're talking about?
00:39:06
Speaker
Yeah, I'm talking about a brother. Oh my god, yeah. Holy shit. Which I think was illegal or something. I don't know, because they're not around anymore. Yeah, I don't think every one of those girls signed a consent form. And I don't think... I was going to say, you think those trash girls signed? They didn't know what the hell was going on. I mean, when was 12, 13 years old, I didn't give a shit. They were tits. But did you ever actually watch one of those?
00:39:27
Speaker
don't think I actually watched one. So, friend's had a few of them. Okay. And, um... How is he? do Do you visit him in prison now? I not. I do not. I think his father passed away and he's not a friend anymore. So that's... um Oh, okay, cool. Those two things are unrelated. But yeah, so... Who inherited tapes then? know.
00:39:47
Speaker
I don't have anything against the guys. I'm just, you know, we're friends anymore. um So... Right, right. And we were watching it and it's like, it's not as, for lack of the better word, climactic as it should be. Like, it's just kind of...
00:40:00
Speaker
Yeah. My daddy. Okay. That's it. Would you say like the commercials more exciting than the actual tape? masturbate. Okay. Commercials. can see that. actual whole thing yeah Wait, what?
00:40:11
Speaker
And how long? You had like, you had like 20 seconds. You had to be quick. Okay, cool. chaism but That Powerpuff Girl laser theme.
00:40:23
Speaker
it's Those were, I don't know if those were, I would, to be honest, like if if it was summertime, I was usually awake.
00:40:30
Speaker
Oh, yeah, that's true. so Yeah. like You know, scramble porn. Yeah, I would imagine that even if they did write ah here, it would be my issue is that even if they did sign a release, they're intoxicated. Yeah, so exactly. That's not the that it's lacking consent.
00:40:50
Speaker
So that's the issue here, scramb which is probably why they're not around. you Scrambled porn as a kid, Rob. Oh yeah, when you didn't get like When you get like pay-per-view, but yet you still got the channel and you can hear things. But if you adjust the color and the tint and stuff, you could actually see things. Yeah, you saw like a warped tit from one corner to the other corner. And then you're like, yeah, that's like green and purple.
00:41:13
Speaker
Yeah, so for the longest time, I thought tits and women were just red because I had to adjust the tint so much. And like, ah wow. No, it was, so we had to work for our porn back then, man.
00:41:24
Speaker
Yeah, we did. Yeah. Now I can go on right now if want. I'm not. Yeah, you could. Yeah. Right. I don't even I'll be honest. i don't know if I've even ever seen porn.

00:45:07
Speaker
you know i You know, sometimes when we do these, we don't expect what's going to come out of... We have an agenda, but we don't know what's going to come out of our mouth or go into our ass. So this is kind of where we're at right now.
00:45:19
Speaker
That really brings a new term to shrimp cocktail. I'll tell you that much. It's only on my mind because they brought it up last night, and I'm just like, oh my fucking God. Wait, who's that I was with last night.

Now, that's the most disgusting thing I've heard so far in this podcast. How dare you? i don't even care anymore. I don't even know.

00:46:27
Speaker
So who was the first nude woman you saw on TV and why was it better than? What what is it? I think. Shatara and the Thundercats pilot. here's my question.
00:46:40
Speaker
That's good. Yeah. Why the pilot? so Because. Yeah. She is essentially topless. She's not wearing that like singlet thing that she wears.
00:46:52
Speaker
So it looks like a giant furry, if you will.
00:46:57
Speaker
So she's, you look it up, Chitara pilot episode, you will see. So she is essentially nude, and you know, when you're young kid, you're like, and she's attractive. Let me get through all my shrimping search engines. Okay, these are starting fantasies, yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
00:47:13
Speaker
Okay. The first nude woman I ever saw on, it wasn't on TV, it was on a movie. um And I think I had to think about this, too. i I think the first time I ever saw a nude woman in a movie that I can remember, i was maybe about 10 or 11.
00:47:32
Speaker
I think it was The Shining.
00:47:37
Speaker
Oh, but the old lady? there's a young lady before she turns into an old lady. Yeah, that's right. I was like 11 years old. I'm like, oh, what? Oh, and then like, you know, yeah, then like, then ah and I'm like, oh, God, that's what I have to look forward to. Oh, dear God.
00:47:57
Speaker
Which is the scariest part of the show. Yeah, it's fucking. you Cause the shiny is kind of just like kind of eerie, creepy the whole time. And then that part happens and you're like, Ooh, that was, and she was hot, no ass, but she was definitely hot. And I think that was the first, uh, naked woman I've ever seen on, uh, TV or a movie. I think that was it.
00:48:20
Speaker
Yeah. Okay. i I, if I really had to think about it. So first of all, as far as Thundercats goes, um, Thundercats was something I grew up to respect, but when I first came out, I hated it. And in fact, I remember, cases before we were born i don't,
00:48:37
Speaker
Yeah. Well, right, right. But I remember Nickelodeon started playing it. And I remember type. I did this as a child. I typed up an email to Nickelodeon and I, I, and all I did was express how much I hated Thundercats. Are you the reason? And that they should take it off the air. Nope. it here's the thing. And I said, don't, who the hell wants to watch this? And I swear to you, not even a month later, it was off the air. You son of a bitch. Every Gen X kid is pissed off. Now,
00:49:06
Speaker
I know. And now as I grow up, I respect it. But at the time, i was like, I don't know what this is. Get it off. Give me Rock was Modern Life. i mean What is going on? ah so they were fun I mean, I wasn't that into it, but it was awesome.
00:49:19
Speaker
Yeah, i get I understand it now. but Once again. First nude woman. Once again, i save the day. ah Now, i maybe i remember seeing like a snippet of the movie Showgirls.
00:49:34
Speaker
So that might have been like the, that's my first like memory of it. Like, as yeah, perhaps it was that, um, where I was like, like actually watching a sex scene in a movie for the first time.
00:49:49
Speaker
And mind you, this, this, I saw this movie. I think I saw this movie before I looked at like scrambled porn and stuff like that. So, um, yeah, yeah, yeah. so yeah, there's the shining you and show girls. Okay. Um, yeah. Okay. Okay.
00:50:03
Speaker
shining and showgirls there we go mario all right that's a good that's a that's a fun there was question actually that's actually one of my i think top top questions because that's a good one yeah wow that is a good one can i to the next one can i do the next one you want to read it please yeah okay so the next question is from gwendoline gray that is my cousin by the way that is my wonderful cousin okay ah she has listened to every episode um I just saw her yesterday. Aw, thank you, Gwendolyn. We celebrate on Three Kings Day. We do a king cake and stuff. It's fun for her daughter and we enjoy and stuff.
00:50:36
Speaker
Shout out to Gwendolyn. She lives here in New York. Love her to death. Anyway, um she asks, why does Mrs.
Q&A: 'Mrs. Doubtfire' and Robin Williams' Connection to San Francisco
00:50:44
Speaker
Doubtfire take place in San Francisco and not Los Angeles? It makes no sense based on Robin Williams and Harvey Fierstein's professions. Let me know what you think.
00:50:53
Speaker
I can answer this. um Robert? Oh, please do. Robin Williams lived in San Francisco. He's a San Francisco boy. That's why they filmed it there.
00:51:04
Speaker
That's the only thing I can think of. um Harvey Fierstein's an actor. You tell him to go to a location, he goes to a location. um However, Bridges is not technically in San Francisco. Bridges is outside of San Francisco.
00:51:17
Speaker
But um that's the only reason I would think. yeah I think it's because he lived in San Francisco. And whatever schedule he had going on at that time, maybe it was easier think he also did Aladdin around that time. So, yeah.
00:51:29
Speaker
Do you know? You might have better insight than I do. Well, hold on. So Harvey, that's his character name? No, that's Frank. Daniel, hi.
00:51:41
Speaker
So wait, wait, wait. Uncle Frank and Aunt Jack. They're the makeup artists. Can you make me a woman? Honey, I'm so so happy. That's that's Harvey Firesteen. Okay. Okay. So I and i think the question is saying that it he really makes. He's phenomenal. I read actually, I read his memoir. Um, I was, I was better last night. I think that's what it's called. Um, it's such a cool story. Yeah. Good title. And the whole reason is because somebody saw him like two nights in a row and told him he was better last night.
00:52:15
Speaker
So, um, Oh, oh man. That's awesome. But um he's a wonderful guy. I follow him on Instagram. I mean, he's just... and i As somebody with a raspy voice, I've always kind of related to him in some ways. My voice isn't nearly as raspy as his. But, um you know, it's damaged vocal cords, which technically is something I have. So I always kind of related to him, and I've always admired his work and stuff. I saw him in 2005. He was in Fiddler on the Roof. He was the lead. um Yeah. Oh, cool.
00:52:43
Speaker
Tradition. If were a rich man. He was very good. Rosie O'Donnell played his wife and um she just couldn't get rid of that Brooklyn accent. She just couldn't do it.
00:52:55
Speaker
Yeah. No, I know. And she like she even in Bedrock still um Brooklyn accent in Bedrock. um So I think the question that Gwendolyn is trying to phrase here is not so much like why they film it, but why was Robin Williams character in San Francisco? based on If he was like this television person oh based on the movie. yeah I see. That is a good question. um Yeah. Yeah.
00:53:21
Speaker
It would make more sense being in LA. She's right. Actually, Gwendolyn's right. Yeah, now that I'm actually thinking. Yeah, thank you, Rob, for helping But I bet you it's because it was out of the convenience. Yeah, probably. And so it's like, why can't he just have a show in San Francisco? And the executives were like, guess why not? Well, mean, was a television actor, and he did voiceover work.
00:53:39
Speaker
I wouldn't put you in coke smoke. He does voices. I do voices. It makes me laugh. I can do an impression of a hot dog. Makes me laugh every time.
00:53:50
Speaker
Every time. It's so stupid. I love it. ah ah feel um but yeah You know what? ah Tell me if this would have been cool or not. So I saw Doubtfire, the musical on Broadway, and I actually liked it.
00:54:05
Speaker
And i once I start, once you accept that this guy is not Robin Williams, because obviously right out of the gate, you're like, you're not Robin Williams. And you start like comparing them. But once you get out of that mindset, you start to enjoy it.
00:54:19
Speaker
But there is that scene does happen in the Broadway play where he says, i do voices, and he's doing all these voices. Do you think it would have been sad, lame, or cool if one of those quick voices was an impression of Robin i think it wouldd be a nice ode to Robin.
00:54:33
Speaker
i think it would have been more of a compliment. Yeah. I think it would have got some cheering. think. Because that one's so memorable. Yeah. Or that. yeah Yeah. Yeah. I was just wondering that. And that should be the only one. yeah, that's a great Let the actor get creative with it, and then you finish that one. I do a great impression of a hot dog.
00:54:52
Speaker
Because that was always so funny me. Yeah. um You know, that is a good question. don't know why. I honestly don't know. Probably because, maybe because it was Robin's business schedule and they're like, let's make it here. But like, or, you know, they, yeah you know, his uncle Frank and Aunt Jack were such big. um Also, I think Miranda's job as well is part of the reason he had to stay in San Francisco.
00:55:13
Speaker
That also might be because Miranda was, what was she, an interior designer or something like that? Stuart Dunn-Moyer. Yeah, so that might might have been it. um And also, like the show he worked on was like a super like little kids show, so I guess that could be at some studio in San Francisco.
00:55:34
Speaker
If it was like this big-time comedy show, that would probably be more LA-based. At the end, when he does Yuva Janiya's house, he's um it's local television. And there it's about be syndicated. It's about to be picked up by the ah by everyone else.
00:55:46
Speaker
um Yeah, that's that's such an interesting point. But yeah, i I'm sure there's a lot of things that why it's there. um Yeah. But yeah great question, though. Two really good questions today. but i do ah Really do think it's because he lived in there. you know yeah I think he also did Aladdin around that time.
00:56:05
Speaker
Like he did that in 92. I think he's Mrs. Doubtfire in 93. So he was probably really busy. and It was probably just easier for him to just be home. Could be. yeah Yeah, that's true. Steiner Street.
00:56:19
Speaker
Steiner. Oh, how lovely.
00:56:23
Speaker
So Mrs. Doubtfire came out in 1993 and Aladdin came out in 1992. Back to back. So huge hits back to back, especially that Aladdin. good will hunt come out um Good question. I know Gwen actually hates it when we look at, look up stuff during the thing, but when this you is your fault, this is your fault right now. Yeah. 97. All right. 97. So yeah.
00:56:49
Speaker
all right ninety seven so yeah um That's the one he won the Oscar for that. oscar for that that's one he won He did win. Probably should have won it for Adrian Cronauer in Good Morning Vietnam.
00:57:03
Speaker
Oh yeah, there's that. But he was also very good in Good Will Hunting. Yeah.
00:57:09
Speaker
Yeah. yeah um Also, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck won Oscars too for writing. It's a great fucking movie. I love that movie. Yeah. You like apples? Oh, it's so good. got a number. How do you like them apples?
00:57:23
Speaker
Yeah. Yep. I also love the soundtrack to that. Yeah. All all around good stuff. love the behind the scenes thing about when he tells about how its his wife farted and she woke the dog. That whole thing is improv and you can actually see the cameraman like laughing, like trying to hold it in in the camera's shaking. Yeah. It's pretty cool.
00:57:41
Speaker
Oh, that's awesome. Yeah. um ah There was also ah another improv thing was... um I swear it was like one of the last scenes when Matt Damon is reading. of a stole my line.
00:57:53
Speaker
I went to see a better a girl. And I think it's the son of a bitch stole my line. i think that was the improv line. And he. Yeah, Matt Damon talks about it. How do you not keep, I mean, that that's a great moment. Son of a bitch stole my line.
00:58:07
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, so good. So good, man. um Well, you know, I'm glad that we were able to get together and do this despite me being sick. Sorry for the delay.
