Andy Frasco.
Wow.
I love you.
You're the best.
What a Thanksgiving Eve dinner.
It was, oh, by the way, the thing I'm most paranoid about, I mean, I never did that many mushrooms before ever my entire life. And then we do the podcast,
and I'm paranoid that your listeners are going to be like,
Jesus, shut the fuck up.
And they'd be right.
So to your listeners, I apologize in advance.
And remember, Andy's the one who made me do the mushrooms.
Not made me, but, like, it was his idea.
It made me.
Anyway, what a night, Andy. I really do love you. It was like, it was his idea. It made me. Anyway, what a night, Andy.
I really do love you.
It was like, what a magical night.
You, me, Doloff, Jill, and Steve, and Danielle.
Oh, my God.
That was just magical in every way.
I'm going to go cry into my sock.
All right, and we're back.
Andy Frasca's World's Favorite Podcast.
I'm Andy Frasca, another special edition for the podcast.
It's the holiday season, so what's a better way to celebrate the holidays by taking mushrooms with Todd Glass?
Yes, it was a four-hour podcast of basically it was a love fest.
We had a group of friends there.
We made a Thanksgiving-style dinner with turkeys and hams and took about, I don't know,
a heroic dose, probably like like five six grams of really strong
mushrooms and we made a podcast we were crying we were uh it was it was a love fest we were singing
karaoke um yeah we're singing karaoke uh songs uh we'd sing songs for the people who passed away in our life and what song
they loved so much
that they wish they sang to the people
that passed away.
We talked about family and I think you're going to really
like this episode. Todd was
the highest I've ever seen him
for real.
It was just heartfelt.
Before we start this episode,
I want to say shout out to Dialed In Gummies.
If you're in the Denver area, go grab some Dialed In Gummies.
They're the best.
I can't say too much bad.
I can't say any bad things about them because they are filled with love.
They're mom, pa, straight from Denver.
The owners take so much love into their product.
And if you're in the Denver area, go grab them.
And if you see them on the shelf, you better buy them because they sell out really quickly.
And they do collabs with all these different strains and growers.
So it's a collaboration.
50-50.
You win.
I win.
Blah, blah, blah.
It's awesome.
So go get yourself some dialed-in gummies
and Deep Eddy vodka.
Yes, they're recruiting me to the
dark side of vodka.
I'm normally a whiskey fan, but
Deep Eddy is great.
I really enjoy it. Straight out of Austin.
They have good
flavored vodkas as well.
I'm normally not a fan of them, because
when I was a kid,
I drank too much of that flavored Smirnoff
and I can't get the smell of it.
I remember just throwing up and burping Smirnoff grape or whatever.
I've always thought about that.
This was my first time trying fruited vodka again in a while
and it wasn't bad.
I liked it you know
i go with the og vodka so if you um that's everywhere so you don't have to be in denver
to buy deep eddie you could buy that everywhere so grab yourself some deep eddie and if you're
in the colorado area grab yourself some dialed in gummies all right guys hope you guys have a
great christmas hanukkah kwanzaa all stuff. And enjoy this episode with my boy, Todd Glass,
and Doloff Cohen, and everyone else that came out to the party.
It was just a lot of fun.
And I think you're going to like this.
A lot of it, you know, it's two and a half hours.
I don't know if Joe cut it down from that.
But when I sent it to Joe, our producer,
it was two and a half hours of madness.
So let's see how much he keeps.
All right, guys, happy holidays.
And next week is the award ceremony.
Yes, the 2022 award ceremony,
the world-saving award ceremony

And so through,
he comes back in without exception.
I think I can hear him maybe maybe I planned I let myself go Each chartered course
Each careful step It's too much reverb
And more Much more than this
I did it my way Yes, yes, there were times
I'm sure you knew
When I bit off
More than I could chew
But through it all
When there was doubt
I ate it up
And now I've faced it all
And I stood tall and did it my way
I'm a real bad guy, you know?
And when you see these backup singers that come in later I figured out a way I could go
They're not great on here but listen up
And tears subside
You'll see they're coming up
It's how I get out of hitting the note
I find it all
Do a little Sinatra if you have to
And I would shorten the song if I close with it in my act
There's gotta be a shorter version.
After a while, we get it. You did it your way.
You know? I get it.
I get it. Oh, no.
Oh, no, not me.
I did it
my way.
Sing it, Todd!
For what is a man?
What has he got?
If not himself, then he has not. To say the words he truly feels, and not the words of one who feels. Ah, the record shows I took the blows and did it my way. The record up right at the very end.
Way.
Fuck.
Come back in.
Bye.
Bye.

How do you know my mic's on?
Seriously.
You don't.
By the way, I'm saying you don't need to, but you're right.
I know it's on.
It's not that I'm doubting you, but me, I'd be worried about it.
But you just click, click, click.
You come in here. You throw together together some wires and then you're sitting in
here hey what's up and everything goes right me i'm like where is it at i hear a sound you know
why why andy because you just gotta let things go sometimes things go that's why we're gonna

It takes a lot out of me
It takes nothing out of me
Steve Fine
How long have you known this crazy person?
I've known Todd for probably 10 years

That's the only reason why I know your name at first.
We can't really.
Yeah, we can't.
But there was the.
Yeah, the thing.
No.
Oh, you want the story of how we met?
Oh, that was because.
Nope.
And then his.
Coincidence.
All right, listen.
So, hi.
Hello.
You look different.
Are you changing purposefully in front of me with my drugs from my eyes to your body?
Are you making this happen?
Danielle, are you okay?
I worry sick about her.
Why worry sick about her?
She tried to sell me Coke in the women's bathroom.
I have women's bathroom in my house.
It was Malcolm Patterson trying to flip a quick
bus oh my god so andy hi hey bud and i want you to know that i'm treating this show as professional
as mine okay i might seem a little bit i kind of want to introduce what's going on so people don't
think we're crazy people thank you i think that's a good thing to do so we took um i don't know we probably took about five mushrooms you're not gonna talk about the
dinner we'll talk about that oh jesus oh my god you're you know the doll off he went through all
that no i'm kidding we're about we're we're on mushrooms Todd so i called Todd two weeks ago
i'm like hey i'm coming to LA We're gonna try to
We first try to do
Dolav is a fucking saint
He always saves the day
Give it up for Dolav
Hey Dolav welcome to the show
Let's go
Let's go
Seriously you gotta love Dolav
Dolav's great
He helps me with everything
How many
We planned this thing a while ago right
When did we plan this
I was thinking I wish I had a friend like Dolav, and I don't.
Steve, I have you, but that's all I got.
That's it.
Everybody needs a Dolav.
How long did we prepare this shroomy Christmas for?
Say, for about a month.
Yeah.
When did I call you, Dolav, needing help?
Yesterday.
Or two days ago, maybe.
Angie?
No, but...
No, no, no.
I mean...
Dolav?
You mentioned it.
I tried.
You mentioned it when we were in New York.
You said that.
I did try.
I had his...
We found the best drug dealers we could.
Yeah.
To find...
Jordan fucked up.
Yeah, Jordan fucked up.
We were supposed to have a chef here I can I can
we were there's gonna be like fun sauce I heard about a giggle juice
juice but we got another guy that one was flying around a little bit that's true that is true and then but listen here's i want to know because i think this cuts out the unnecessary part of
would that we were on different lines of communication what dinner was going to be
tonight but i will tell you this this is this is i think at least worth repeating for me right
i'm gonna it is exactly what i said and it and tell you, folks, you don't need to know the details to go,
everything that I thought that Andy would do wrong, he did wrong.
Because it was just, it was with some blind hope and blind faith.
It worked out.
A lot of love and a lot of will wishes.
It worked out.
Wouldn't this be cool, right?
But while I'm sitting there, I'm going, I got to this place pretty good.
You know, I came in, I had to talk to you about it, but I got there pretty good.
I said, here's the mantra.
I put myself, I went, you know what?
I go, but you know, you make me push me
to do things outside of, you know,
my comfort zone sometimes.
And then what do you want?
Some boring friend?
If you're going to hang around people
that are experimental,
then you're going to have to do drugs.
I don't know the point of the story.
But anyway, so he makes me, yeah.
So there's the good part about it is that you force me to do things,
to be spontaneous.
Yeah.
You force me to be spontaneous.
And overwhelmingly, I benefit by that.
That's why I like you, but that's one of the elements that I like you.
You're certainly more spontaneous than me.
I'm scared to shit to do a lot of stuff.
So you get me to be spontaneous, and I go, now, in this one moment,
his spontaneity is really fucking everything up.
But I will look at the big picture.
I will look at the big picture and go, I still benefit by that being Andy.
So if this slice, you know, I didn't make that.
I don't think I made that.
I had to tell you two to three times. I walked in and you said frasco i knew this isn't what you told me it'd be
well it was because you know what you end up telling the details because you don't want to
sound like a monster like i was literally hit him in the face we all saw you hit him in the face
hold on let me explain because he deserved it serve it in tin foil so
i saw andy did you mention my new show 10 year old tom it's on the second season second season
it's on hbo max uh no no is it i actually actually told the producers that you've been getting high
before you've been doing the voiceovers. I don't do that.
I have mentioned that a few times.
You know what?
I thought maybe that's not a good thing to do, to admit it.
But no, it's fine.
I've been already doing it.
What are they going to say?
No, I'm telling them you're shooting up.
What are you saying?
Shooting up?
Whatever it takes.
Steve, what are you saying?
I shouldn't say it?
I love that.
That's great.
I shouldn't say it?
No, say you're shooting up.
No.
Tell them the truth.
I shoot up. I get nervous. I shoot up. I get nervous. I shoot up. I get nervous. I shoot up. His arms. Both arms. that that's great no i shouldn't say it no say you're shooting up no tell them the truth
both arms both arms i listen i get a little nervous so sometimes if i just shoot up no i should make a joke people have serious you know addictions it's not i don't have to make it so
we basically we ate mushrooms and we and we got a turkey and we had mashed potatoes
Basically, we ate mushrooms and we got a turkey and we had mashed potatoes.
I'm so sorry.
Well, for what?
I'm going to let you leave this all in, but I apologize for it.
Dolav, what is your song?
I have no idea.
Any song.
I want it to be a Jewish.
I want it to be Hebrew.

Why does that song mean so much to you?
Isn't that beautiful? I love this shit.

Got all the love.
In the beginning, I thought
that you were going to do like a rock song
or something that was loud outside of your
grandmothers and that's why I left.
I went, oh no, he's going to actually do a song.
I felt so bad.
But now, if anybody uh that was great yeah he made me think about it and i was like well
that song was like um we played it at i think i uh at my bar mitzvah i want to say like
oh you you were there uh right yeah you were at my bar mitzvah.
Oh my God.
That was the first time I drank a Heineken in a green bottle.
Wow. Is there a beer at your house?
We got drunk. Yeah, we did.
We had an extra one over there.
What was the temple we did that at?
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Well, the party, the party was in Bell Canyon.
But but that song just, you know, it reminded me of my grandma.
She couldn't make it to, you know, my bar mitzvah.
My mom was like, you know, planning everything with her.
You know, she lives in Israel and she passed away before.
And so it was like, you know oh man well shout out to your
grandma let's go hey grandma yeah Irina yeah Irene my sister's middle name is Irene because of it
yeah do you miss her I do I do what did you her? You know, as time goes on, you forget a lot, you know, like, when I was younger, you know, like, what I do remember is, like, just so much love, you know, always. pizza place in Israel in Arad in like this small city and I just
remember that you know like being
in the kitchen like helping her
you know try and make some of the stuff
and I don't know it's
just it's like
you know I love
my mom so much I'm very much like my
mom and
I know a lot of what
you know it all comes down from her and so it's
it's this guy's a fucking lover we could learn something about loving from dollop okay my mom
so my name my name um there's a there's a type of tree called the Dolev tree. Shh, watch your mouth.
Dolev, so like, you know, in English it would be like D-O-L-E-V,
but my mom liked the sound of dolav, which is more like love,
not dolev, she wanted dolav.
So she made that my name And it's unique
Every Israeli I meet
They're like, Dolev?
I'm like, no, I'm Dolev
I'm an adult, I know my name
You don't have to correct me
I didn't even think about that
That's fucking beautiful
Dolev
She wanted the sound of Dolev
Not Dolev
You got a friend that you love? No Yeah, she wanted the sound of Do-love, not Do-live.
You got a friend that you love?
No.
Get the fuck off of me.
Shut up, I'm gonna come over there.
Is that that Philadelphia thing?
Of course I do. Of course I have friends.
I don't understand Philly.
I don't speak for the whole city.
You got a phone call.
Hello? Hello? My phone's not working. Sorry.
But of course I, what did you ask me?
I said, why is the city of brotherly love when you don't know how to love?
Oh, well, that's fun that you say that, but there's no, was that just a lead in?
No.
I fucking hate you, Glass.
There's no love.
You're right, though.
There's not a lot of love.
Not a lot of love in Philly.
They happen to have a poster that says love.
What are the odds of that being the, that's going to be, that's what's going to actually end up happening.
Every city would just put up big monuments that go, the city where everybody dances together.
You know, and people would all just start dancing together.
If they would listen to the monuments in monuments and cement and you know that they
that they carve out this was what just start creating things this was 2020 everybody just
started dancing in the streets at night it was so much fun people were just dancing all over we do
that in their memory and you get people to do it again this is the trick well maybe like we could
start a trend of people start taking drugs at their family reunions i like it and do you think like i do what kind of drugs are you talking what do you say steve what
kind of what kind of drugs are these masculine tmt norton mushrooms um i don't know i think just
psychedelics no cocaine then people get angry because there's too many different types of
personalities where cocaine won't work right what if it's wild card and you don't know what it is everybody takes the drug you don't know what it is oh that's
cool but everyone has to take the same drug oh that's a good question i think it's a random
it's gonna be a mix it's gonna be a mix right mom got pcp can i tell you something oh she's
cleaning the reality show that's a reality show i would watch. You're the last one to go, Todd.
No, I thought I said I...
No, my way was just to open the show. Now, what's a sentimental song that if you could sing a song, what is it?
I think I wanted to do a document.
What am I talking to?
This is what people do when they lose it.
They can't get enough.
Hello over here or over here.
I'm Anthony Kindler, everybody.
Give me attention.
Do I need the louder amplification in the room?
Maybe my regular jokes don't cut it like this,
so I use a microphone to go on a manganet with my friends to make it more fun.
Without the reverb, it's not as good.
Admit it. Hey, i guess i don't hear people
laughing with the rebirth everybody's fun what did you do over there you're clapping up your
hands it doesn't matter about the goddamn song don't you love happiness isn't it a lot of fun
wasn't mr. Rogers great?
Let's keep bouncing up and down in memory of him
until I find it.
Do some mushrooms and drugs and whatever you want to do.
Oh, shit, look at the guy over there.
Look at the woman in the corner.
Look at the girl in the pants.
Look at the guy with his shirt on.
Look at the other guy.
Oh, my God, I am high and I'm aware of it!
Wow!
I wish you could animate that.
The Las Vegas Chronicle gives this five stars!
One hinged guy and O'Hare!
And more!
Much more than this.
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times.
I'm sure you knew.
Well, now I've learned how to do something.
Who are you suing?
Thank you.
Todd, what is wrong with you? Let me turn the light off. Hello? Okay. Todd, what is wrong with you?
Let me turn the light off.
Todd,
I want you to take the most
mushrooms you've ever taken tonight.
I think I'm enough.
I think I'm done.
I would have a little more, but I'm going to have to
learn to shush.
No.
No way.
Steve, what's the most you've seen him fucked up?
No, I feel like I've seen you
a couple times more fucked up.
Well, don't think fucked up. I mean functioning.
You've seen me laying on a curb.
I mean, we just love watching him do heroin.
We can't stop.
It makes us sad,
but also we can't look away.
You can't, no, first of all, nobody did heroin.
Did somebody, well, somebody did heroin.
I hope, good luck with your not doing it.
Because, uh...
They're not listening to the podcast if they did heroin.
They're probably not listening to the podcast.
You know what, people do everything and listen to a podcast.
You'd be surprised. So, sorry
that you have to hear a guy like him
take a cheap shot
Everyone hotline is 1-800 Todd glass

thank you he's a drug addict can you grab me a beer too seriously no why do we even have to make
a joke that we're fun and going in for our vices yeah me i've had a few what were you what was the
one mine tonight is one truth be told
told be the truth
people that repeat it back and forth
never remember that long
in the moment everyone goes oh yeah
truth be told or told be truth
oh my god
my god that's some good
porridge for the mind
people go no I don't think it was
say something to me and I'll try to use your wisdom
back at you I feel like you're drinking a little too much you need
to clean it up a little bit drinking it up a little too much you're cleaning it up a little too
not so much i couldn't figure it out you know what that's i think you need to stop being vegetables
and more meat of course i didn't see that if it wasn't top there. Oh, give him a new one. Oh, you want a new one? I have tops.
Oh, yeah.
I, because of the bottles in the studio, I have a... Oh, thank you.
Yes!
Oh, yeah, I did.
Thank you.
Todd, you're going to have to answer one question, buddy.
I am.
I'm going to answer you.
Here, let me...
Here.
I had it lit here.
I thought I had it here.
I'm losing my mind.
I know what I want my legacy to be And I'm not going to make it
No there's something on the wall
Thank you for being the only man in the room
I don't like that term
The only true hero
Thank you
Freedom fighter
We were at Transformers
And they were saying freedom fighter
Which is kind of like very republican
You know how good that is when you want it.
Yeah.
That's what the police... So tell me, what do you want your legacy to be, Todd?
I've been trying to get this question out of you for three fucking years.
I don't want you to think I'm joking.
My legacy...
Look, I bet my legacy is the same as...
Is anybody here, is anybody here?
Right.
Right.
Maybe fun.
Why do I have to keep joking?
I don't want to joke.
It's a good question.
Oh no.
Oh no.
I do have an answer.
I, but I've said it, you know what it is?
I feel like I've said it so many times, but you asked me in this slice, at least to be
because you can't just say, you say, oh oh i want to be on the right side of history
everyone goes oh yeah yeah yeah but there's some definition there of what it takes to do that
you know what i mean so i want i want to be like i want to be where i hurt as least amount of people
as possible with the words and the things that i say that I'm aware that I'm aware you know it's not to go back and punch your old work in the face it's to say
like it's okay to grow what are you holding on to like you were a good
person then you're a good person now but you know different things and you change
and so my legacy because you see like you know you don't have to be out there
like literally hurting these people that get hurt you know underdogs whatever
whatever who it is but you see now like what it's like they get 100 and you know you can fix that you can stop that
you know so to to have the least of that possible i know there's going to be remnants i know there's
going to be things that even me in 30 years i'll be like isn't that funny i was on that show when
i was talking about it but at least it'll show so there's the long answer the clean answer with all
that this guy gave a fuck i gave a fucking you know to exactly that to making people that should
have rights get the rights they want they shouldn't have to fight for them learn from the past and
just make people breathe easier not harder that's beautiful and now and that's that's
right there you go.
So you know what?
Are you addicted to sugar?
I'm addicted to sugar.
I love that soda.
God bless America for Coca-Cola.
It was over there.
I just grabbed it.
No, I think about that too.
I see this man.
I'm telling you have a sugar problem.
Shh.
Don't talk.
Don't talk.
It's your podcast. No one laughs at that. What am I in a room for? sugar problem don't talk you're the guest got a pie we got two pies you had
something in there no I'm talking about okay let you say you're saying that do
you want it that you tried but oh I tried right well that makes sense right
I feel like everyone tries. What makes you...
No, people don't try.
You know, the truth is, Andy, and I talked about...
I thought about this before I did your show,
because I talk about this a lot.
I put thought in...
Like, I know, don't trickle down that path
unless you feel you have anything to clear it up with, you know?
But, you know, we talk about trying.
Most people don't.
Most people are annoyed by the sheer attempt of anything different.
And they'll admit it if they weren't around or trying to fluff it up.
It takes a lot of work to fluff it up and make it presentable.
But the truth of the matter is behind the curtain door, they're just fucking, I get it.
It's like one more fucking thing to learn.
But they try to, they can't, no, they can't say that.
So that's why it's hard to explain to them because they don't know.
It's because they're afraid to just go, I just don't want to learn anything new.
At least that would be a start.
But is that dying?
I think a lot of it is that you just
people it's hard to learn new shit but i'm not excusing it by the way but that's what's inside
i don't know if even if you ask me that do you get excited to learn something new every day no
don't try to trick me with one i look forward to wallowing in my own sorrow and stupidness
i explained it because you know i explained it out of paranoia not to to in my own sorrow and stupidness.
I explained it because you know why I explained it?
Out of paranoia, not to hear my own voice.
Because I do ask myself that question.
Number one, do you think you're perfect?
And that's why I said to try.
Just to try.
It doesn't mean I think I'm great. I see other comedians that inspire me.
That make me want to be a better comedian.
Oh, I shouldn't think I should.
That's all right.
You know what I mean?
But I hope I have something to say what about are you ever afraid that you're just gonna lose it oh i already did you know what i mean though am i gonna lose it if the
no i don't i've watched i've been with you the last couple years and you
and as a friend i watch you watch these I'm losing it
you're not losing it I think you're inspired you're being inspired by the
people who are doing it at older ages what are you talking about we last two
years I've been hanging out with you we'd watch like Neil Sadaka and what
he's not musicians yeah whatever like you're talking about old musicians. Yeah, whatever. I thought you were talking about comedians.
Same thing.
Same thing.
How about Tom Jones?
Why do you have to say Neil Sadaka?
I mean, talk to that guy.
Any of your long-time listeners are going to know.
I just think it's so weird.
I never even mentioned that.
You made me want Neil Sadaka.
You wanted me to come to the fucking show.
No, I didn't.
You're talking about Tom.
He never showed me Neil Sadaka, but I do believe it's tell you what. I'm going to clear this up in one second.
He's never shown me Neil Sadaka, but I do believe it's possible.
No, we're going to clear this up in one second.
There's no way it is.
First of all, here's why I don't bring it up.
Everything's going to make crystal clear.
Also, hold on.
Wait a second.
We don't even know if Neil Sadaka's bad.
Like, he's not cool.
No, that's the point.
Yeah, he's...
And he is alive, and he's fine.
And here's the point.
You've done this before, right?
And then in one second
i'm gonna clear it up like i did before but i want to hold tight the danger in doing it is
because it happened throughout the night usually i just go yeah yeah yeah i move on
is that you don't want to seem and steve just said it like you're like when i'm saying oh it
wasn't neil sadaka like that's disrespectful to neil sadaka neil sadaka he's been around forever
it was never anything that you know that i you know he's not gonna he has an unfortunate name
he has a tough name it's like engelbert humperdinck you know i know what he
does i would not watch one of those videos it doesn't look like something oh i'd love to be
at that show you know it's just i don't so paul anka paul anka that's what i mean paul anka do
you know who paul lincoln is no exactly no He wrote it my way. He wrote it my way.
Is he right or do you want to...
No.
You just turn to him, swing around, exactly.
So is, and that's completely different.
No.
That's completely different.
I'm on mushrooms, not to be stupider.
You just wanted to zing me like, oh wow.
You go, do you know who Paul Anka is?
No.
So there.
So there what? So there what? there what there's paul you're
missing my point you're missing myself you're missing my point yes go ahead you're very short
amount of time to gather this okay so i'm gonna let you go you're making us which i love because
it's inspiring me because i feel we're watching these guys not in their prime we're watching them
when they're 85 and 90 do their thing
i gotta stop you again but you're gonna know i'm hearing you look i first of all i should be
the room is now moving so i want to tell you that but i'm going to still hold the conversation
you're even complimenting me what on a podcast is sweet right from the start you're sending me
conwords but i'm going to tease you a little bit in between and it's really teasing you based on my insecurity so when you're telling somebody oh remember we
listened to that you want them to you know it's not be what it was and you keep saying neil's
exactly we weren't listening to neil's i'll put an end to this would paul i think i would i yes
because that's the old crooner go ahead you're missing this we were i didn't think i would like
paul anka but i I went with Todd to see him
in Beverly Hills about four years ago.
Oh, shit. It was a great show.
And I knew nothing about him before,
and I actually was like, oh, shit, he's good,
and he wrote My Way, and he was a great performer.
No, Paul Anka's great. Most people wouldn't even doubt that.
Most people from afar could know,
oh, Paul Anka, crooner, but also it's very easy not to know
who he is, so I'm not one of those people.
That's what I'm trying to get at, Glass.
He's not that known in the U.'s but i gotta get my insult out all right
not my insult my my insecurity i should call it kurt it's with the c at the end um so when you
give examples i'm embarrassed if you go it would be like if i said oh i don't want to insult anybody
comedic wise so i got to use my names carefully here you You know, remember Andy? We used to talk about comedians.
I can't think of anything now.
Like if mine was gonna be like
like, remember we used to play
Judy Tanuta all night long?
I'd go, no I didn't.
Like not as an insult to Judy.
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace.
Of course rest in peace.
Oh why don't I just shut up?
Todd, I'm saying
it goes back to like wanting to learn and be great
and still be great in your older age yes well what are we oh oh talking about those singers
yes that's what i'm trying to tell you well i think what okay you're thinking about mushrooms
let me guide you through this okay let me get a fire in a fire as we get older in life we want to keep
learning and keep learning and being great and being great watching these guys at 85 90 still
be great is inspiring that's what i'm trying to get at with legacy yeah you're talking there's two
one is the uh uh intellectual like the the uh they're keeping their sh their their their uh
craft sharp yes musically like getting, like getting, getting, getting.
And then there's the emotional part of it, which I can't always follow in all of them.
You know what I mean?
Maybe if I knew more, there'd be some that I couldn't like as easy.
But yeah, you're talking about...
Because when I talk about somebody that keeps it...
I hope they...
Shut the fuck up, man.
Let's go.
We got you an orange slice.
Orange crack. We got you an orange one. Orange crack.
We got you an orange one.
Thank you.
Thank you.
My fans know how much he's addicted to sugar.
Here's what I want to say.
Two big old sodas in 25 minutes.
I think what...
Thank you.
In the bathroom.
I was just thinking that.
For your podcast or not.
Because I remember, like, I always try to think, people are going to listen to this,
so keep your thoughts as clean as you can.
You're already all over the place.
I think what Andy was trying to say
was that, Todd,
you're like a young Tom Jones.
Oh, thank you!
Why did you do that?
Thank you!
Thank you all to be loved by anyone.
So, yeah, it would have been Paul Anka.
I love watching that.
And Steve got me tickets about how many years ago we went to see him.
And let me tell you something.
Yeah, I knew you wanted to see him.
And it was un-fucking-believable.
And I will say this for him.
And then also, yes, see?
And then also, it's up to everybody.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
It's up to everybody. It's up to everybody. Oh, it's up to everybody
Nobody feels anything but blessed to be here. But you didn't answer the question. I was oh guys. Hold on
What was the question? Are you afraid to die? He didn't ask you that.
What are you trying to say?
Yes, of course I am.
Time just stopped right after you heard it.
No, I was answering you. Oh, so Paul Anka, we went, and then three years, I just went
on his 80th birthday, and I said that, my friend looks at me and he goes, there is not
a performer, no matter what type of music they do, that it wouldn't benefit for them to see him perform right even first of all it's a type of music that it's
hard not to like even other performers you go all right i can see some people couldn't like what i
do but that's one it could be your second like no matter what so it's not you're getting too
dragged to the but fuck that even if it wasn't your thing at all the my friend goes this guy
and he's 80.
And by the way, if other guys go out there at 80 and they sit down and they put on a good show, good for them, too.
That's fucking nuts.
But he's 80 and he's fucking moving.
And it's like, my friend goes, this guy's a fucking beast.
How do they get that way?
Well, long story longer, I hope I didn't tell this before.
When I'm opening up for Jim Gaffigan, I found out that he has to learn how to fake play the violin for a movie he's in.
And one of the girls that is teaching him to fake play the violin is in his band.
So when we go to see and we text back and forth,
she gives me her number and she's going to hook me up with tickets.
And we text back and forth.
And we... He wants to keep learning. that's what i'm trying to get at oh yeah but i was just having fun explaining your show
but uh wait i hate you i can't do anything why do you hate me don't say that i'm controllable
um so the thing in the are you still inspired with life?
Is what I'm asking you.
Well, listen.
I got you good, everybody.
Of course I am.
Of course I am.
I love it here.
It's probably apparent, right?
I'm trying to answer you honestly.
And also not...
It's not that I go for the humor always.
I have no problem having depth.
Sometimes I worry about the depth of your questions, to be honest, young man.
Hey!
I don't know if you're just teasing me to make me see how long I'll talk.
And Todd, what inspires you?
I don't know.
I mean.
Wait, Andy, you asked earlier about when Todd thinks he's going to like, when he snaps or like, like, when he's afraid of losing it and, like, what that will look like, you know?
And I think when he does snap, you'll know.
He'll start doing, he'll start saying shucky ducky or hamburger, hamburger, something like that.
He'll go to a catchphrase when he's doing stand-up.
Like, what would be an example, Todd, of your, like, what would be your catchphrase?
If I lost it on of your like yeah if you
lost you would know sometimes I do I just go I I get I get it but what will I
do if I get really yeah no I just yell at them usually I don't that's the
problem you I don't get it what's the worst heckler like that is no hecklers
you know let me first of all I don't think it's fun to deal with hecklers, so it doesn't happen.
And all fair to be complimentary, the rooms, like the good comedy club, the good rooms, I could list them.
They don't really have any.
People aren't just, hey, Amoya, fuck you.
A lot of times, sometimes it's the comedian will ask, hey, do you have any questions?
But so there's not ever anybody really heckling at a
show to be honest there's not that disarray ever by the way i'm not going after hamburger jones
by the way but i was trying to say like if you were gonna i don't want anybody mad at me about
hamburger because i love him we love him hamburger we have great affection for him and i'm glad that
you even prefaced that to say it yeah say it. Good for you for saying it.
So it's not taken out of context.
So the question.
You don't answer any of my questions.
I did too.
Shut the fuck up.
Welcome to the zoo crew of insecure guys, everybody.
We can't talk about our feelings.
She might be right.
Why are we afraid to talk about our feelings?
Andy, I don't know.
I'm not. think you're tricking me into thinking I am
I'll talk about anything
And sing off key
So, you know, my boundaries are down
But it's
And then I answer your questions
And then, you know, you don't care
I do care
I think you care
He wants you to cry.
He's trying to get to the heart of it.
I want to get...
I want to...
It's Christmas.
No, I mean then.
Oh, now you put it on me.
Why?
Well, that it's Christmas and I say you don't care.
Is this the beginning of a friendship?
This is your worst Christmas, Todd.
This is the worst Christmas I've ever had.
I care.
I love you.
You know I love you to death.
But I do care. I know we have a... Andy, I don't think it's funny for me to hear you don't care i love you you know i love you to death but i do care i know we have andy
i don't think it's funny for me you don't care i know you care i'm talking about in the isolated
moments sometimes when you ask me the questions are you asking it tongue and cheek that's what
i'm not that's just how i talk and you know what you're probably right if you know better than
anybody so i apologize don't deal with it all the time I'll just go straight for it what's that thing that building wall does when he
goes he's here's your sign right is that the thing what is that can you do that
for us one time what are you trying to scare me off yelling how does that go
he knows he just throw me in other direction just give Todd a cookie over How does that go? Here's my sign! Here's my sign!
He knows he can just throw me in another direction.
Just give Todd a cookie over here and stop talking about
what I don't even remember what it was now over here.
But the thing about life...
I get it.
Come on. We're on mushrooms.
I know. Just a law. You seem nice.
Legally, Todd's not on any mushrooms.
I'm talking to his lawyer right now on the side.
You're not on mushrooms right now.
For the purposes of...
You're not on mushrooms.
You're not actually on mushrooms.
Absolutely not.
You're the only one that's not.
Everyone else is.
Todd.
We're going to have to get to the nitty gritty here pretty soon.
Even if it takes 20 years.
What if you're mind-fucking me? What if we listen to this back and someone goes, actually, Todd was answering all his questions. to the nitty-gritty here pretty soon even if it takes 20 years i'm going to keep me
what if we listen to this back and someone goes actually todd was asking answering all his
questions like what is it do you want to know i'm going to pick close attention okay yes go and i'm
not calm i don't have to go take a minute just go ahead are you depressed no no i get into funks but
i uh try to you know try I can get through those.
Are you lonely?
No, I'm not.
I'm actually not lonely.
You can not be in a relationship and not be lonely.
I wouldn't mind being in another relationship, but I'm not lonely at all.
When was the last time you've came?
Take it serious, guys!
Oh!
No, under in my pants right now.
Does that count?
No, that wouldn't be an honest answer.
This afternoon.
Can a guy like Todd Glass go on Tinder?
No, I don't because I'm too insecure.
But anybody should go on Tinder.
That if it serves them well and have a ball.
Seriously, why would I get in the way of someone?
He's on J-Date.
What is it?
J-Date. What is he? That's the Jewish.'s on j-date what is it j-date what what
is he what is he that's the jewish j-day yeah well what if i but like i'm gonna have her wow
no not if it's jews doing it i gotta prevent that i'm for any other person doing that but
you have one group that should do it everybody farmers well we all agree on that let's go home
yeah but i don't think that group should get the popsicles oh we thought
that once you wanted the popsicles you wouldn't give a who ate popsicles and then they all got
into a fight because i like the popsicles but i don't think that group should get to eat popsicles
and you sit up here and ask me uh uh do i appreciate life whatever you asked me i answered
you honestly i didn't answer you honestly you did I'm seeing things Are you still inspired by life?
Yes I am
I love youth and can't get enough of it
Did you have to change your mind state to be inspired?
You've always felt this way
I remembered
Crystal clearly
I knew it took more
Maybe subconsciously than even consciously
To just be annoyed by something Doesn't mean you're not going to perpetuate that behavior.
Nobody wants to turn into their parents.
So I knew early on that it's going to take some work because that seems to be the instinct.
But no, overwhelmingly, so I don't fight it, whatever it is.
There's no no, there's never any.
Do you want some chocolate, Todd?
Yes, or these normal ones?
Normal chocolate, yeah.
Oh, no, thank you. Well normal ones? Normal chocolate, yeah.
Oh, no, thank you.
Well, maybe I'll have one more.
Just have one more.
No, I thought I answered that honestly.
So what did you ask me?
If you remember, I put it on you.
What did you ask me?
I asked you if you still enjoy life.
And I answered.
Yes.
You know, the thing is, I try to think, if I say things, I try to think people are going to hear it. So I hope it would be something.
If it's just silly, then it doesn't matter. But if you say,
oh, I have these words to offer to
make life better, then you
try to use that time valuably
and not just ramble on. So that's
why I'm thinking about the thing.
What about you, Daniel?
Oh, happy birthday!
Oh, here's what I want to
say on my headstone. Lover, fighter,
little fucker.
Calvin peeing on the
on your headstone.
What about you, Steve?
What do you want to be remembered by?
I don't know. Good time.
Good time? Yeah, I think so.
We call you that on the podcast.
It's amazing how many people you've helped with their careers.
I don't know about help, but I appreciate that.
I work with some of those people.
Pretty amazing.
I'm lucky.
I'm lucky to work with them.
He tells me all the time.
That's his partner, I want to say.
He's one of the most supportive people of comics and younger comics coming up.
And you've done a lot behind the scenes
to get things done for people and uh she's the best and i'm keeping names
steve's a good man you always keep really good people around you
thank you really that's one thing I respect about you well thank you you
know what I'm just it's not my fault no you know what you I have no memory Oh
talking about friends yeah yeah have Have you ever, like,
when was the last time you cried of joy?
Oh, every day.
In the past tense, sometimes I
might, in the present, I might
get a little shy of words like
I love you or showing emotion to someone that's
sitting right over there. Like, obviously with Steve,
you know, it gets uncomfortable, but
in the past tense, you can show the
emotion even in the same room,
but mentioning it in a past tense, which I think makes even in the same room but mentioning it in a
past tense which i think makes sense even if it doesn't it doesn't matter but you get the point
but um uh there's the fact that you that you keep the friends uh in la yeah i i think sometimes like
they're all the people that i the family that i wish everyone got along it's like a good group
of people everybody gets along you know everybody relatively and that that group can be like
you know and then then you go from in that group and you obviously make closer friendships i mean
me and steve are practically as close as you could get you know or somebody that you really uh you
know did you always yearn for that danielle well let me ask about about Danielle when we first met and she knows
it that's why I put off talking about it because I was didn't want to embarrass
her she spent the first year winking at me
true stories you're winking hello over here and eventually I looked and we fell in love. We're a throuple.
And we're thrilled about it!
So you asked me.
I asked you if, were you always looking for family to love you?
No.
Why do I want to answer you negatively?
I want to come out, don't off-season.
Because they just, did they just did you did you um so it's hard for me
to take this seriously it could be in your in your in your no but i'm saying it because i do it
because like what do you do i don't know i felt like my family loved me but it wasn't a way that i
could understand it it was in their own way so like i always looked for a odd family that will
accept me and love me and that's why
i have all these weirdos like dolov i love dole he's the weirdest guy in my work
he's and he's been the weirdest guy in my in my circle my i have three people that are my circle
since third grade this guy's been the biggest fan of and i just want to say you shaped me to be a
better person and i just want to say i love you
man i love you bro you're my guy but that's what i'm saying like i yearn for that it's important
to have that that those relationships in your life and i hope i could be one of those people
you know friendships are hold on one second here i feel a little bit overwhelmed because um
he's drinking about the shit no i'm a little uh i'm a little too uh i don't want to
drink any more soda but i feel over i don't feel overwhelmed that's not the right word i'm uh just
everyone all my fans my podcast fans know he's on his fourth soda no no i'm not no i'm not i'm on
one and a half two soda he Soda? He still has two.
We all think he's addicted to sugar in our family.
Can you take me away a little bit?
Yeah.
I mean, please.
The man is addicted to sugar.
Can I get the pretzels to eat up the sugar?
Oh, absolutely.
No, that's the way my doctor told me to do it.
You know, Andy, I'm trying to take care of myself, and every time I do, you laugh at me.
You said, listen to your doctor, listen to your doctor.
My doctor said, Todd, if you've ever caught yourself eating too much sugar have a bowl of pretzels to eat up
How do you sell out somebody shit, oh, how do you sell that shit to somebody in television
I eat pretzels for my health ass. Has anyone ever sold drugs?
You sold drugs. let me put this microphone
steve's about he's used to selling not at these social everyone sold weed like washington and
stuff yeah like what like by like like a drug like how old are you uh 32 32. I don't give a shit. I'm just joking. You're gonna ask? Ask John next.
I feel like younger generations aren't gonna know what a drug dealer is.
It's like the death of the drug dealer right now.
It's the delivery service because they aren't licensed.
We still have it.
It's where you grow, right?
Getting fucking jacked for your money
We were just hanging out with our old drug dealers
Last night the homies
You said I could do this
No and then we changed it
Okay
That wasn't me
No no it wasn't me
I got an idea
If you're gonna drink four coca colas I'm gonna have one cigarette
I don't care See here I'd rather be honest I got an idea. I got an idea. If you're going to drink four Coca-Colas, I'm going to have one cigarette.
I don't care.
See, here.
Okay.
I'd rather be honest.
I realize it's not right for me since it's my place to go.
I don't care.
It's other people because that puts the onus on them.
And as a guest, you're supposed to just say no smoking.
I made the mistake.
But I'll say, I don't care.
So if anybody else would rather it not, which I think, if I remember, somebody did.
Now you're putting them in a horrible situation.
All right, it's out, Glass.
It's out. All right, guys, fine.
I'm pregnant.
And so am I.
Can't I just shut up?
That's what I'm going to call my new special.
Why can't I just shut up? I love that I'm going to call my new special. Why can't I just shut up?
I love that.
Wait, Andy, Andy, I have a question.
The weed dealing thing, the weed dealing thing, where did that come from?
I want to know what the...
I've just been around, like this tour has been, everyone's legalizing weed now.
So all the dealers who still come to my show, give me like, you know, weed in the towns
are giving me pounds of weed now because
they can't even sell it they're like just take this dude we can't even sell it i was like
what is happening all my homies it's crazy it's the it's the death of the drug dealer
and it's kind of it's it i used to love my drug dealer you know what good go hang out with them
love my drug dealer you know what good go hang out with them i do good
no i'm just saying anything that changes i always almost comedically just go bye
you know i uh i made my second record office my my buddy gave me four pounds of hash yeah we'll bleep it out but yanni schomer um gave me four or no i sold
it to yanni my buddy in iowa my buddy in iowa gave he's like hey i don't know i don't have any money
but i want to support you if you take this four four pounds of hash back to california and sell
to one of your friends you'll make five grand six, six grand. And I was like, all right, cool. And I'm like smuggling pounds. I totally wasn't,
I was dumb, but it was like, we needed the money and like we had to, so I drove it back
to California cause I was living in Schwa's asparagus farm. I was living in asparagus
farm in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for six months.
What year is this happening um i was 25 i was 25. about 10.
yeah i was doing a residency in cedar rapids like you're doing a what i was doing a res i was like
we ran out of money but where where who run out of money like the band ran out of money but we were
on we had like uh we had three months off before our other four-month
tour that i booked i'm i'm booking the band everything so i'm like oh we'll just stay in
iowa it's cheaper than la so it was me ernie and um busy this was uh 11 years or 10 years ago
we were in our e350 and uh our buddy schwa you met schwa yeah hippie schwa that's
right he's like you could just live in my farm and just all you have to do is cut asparagus for three
months and we just and we lived off the land and we lived in the van and it was and i'd play on like
monday this is crazy did you document not that everything has to be documented but it's also
not bad i don't know
I was like that was when I was like, you know, I was just like that was like my road dog
I was doing but that was my life for the first eight years of touring
I was doing 250 shows a year you're living in your van right for a long time, right?
Ten and a half months a year when you called the three. What did you say? You're 350 what your van?
What'd you call e350 43 f 43 is my first one goldilocks
and that's like a sprinter van but only no that was the fourth one the fourth one have an extended
roof no no no they were no it was a but it had the better seats comfortable seats how were
you safe all the time sleeping out i mean do you feel good or do you feel okay we well this is
before this is where the walmart well like we just follow the trucks. So like we do their sleep
in the truck, like in the pilot gas stations, or the best was sleeping in the Walmart because
they're 24 hour and they're surveillance. But we did you know, we had to put the because
it's like really sort of bright lights in the parking lot. So we had to put like towels
over the over the over the windows. But'd sleep but you guys got couches and eventually
you know not in the van but but like you can you know well you're at a different point now this is
a little no this is not sleeping just in the van no we were driving nights like this is when i was
like this is like no tour manager i was driving i was booking i was like calling making deals
to get another gig on a wednesday like oh we got we got a wednesday in
manhattan kansas now we drive to manhattan cancer 300 bucks it's crazy to think you you just did
that yeah right he's still doing it i know i don't mean i don't mean of course he said but what i
mean is that to look back and go the dirty work yeah like and and you go wow because it just when
you're going through it it's just this is what it is you're not thinking i'm really gonna persevere later in hindsight but in the moment
you're just like it's just you do it yeah doing it you gotta just do it when i i we were
in high school i was not at i was not at like in i was always managing all the homies bands
and like booking them and promoting them and stuff and and your own band
Yeah, that was junior high school. I was talking about like middle school. I was I was an intern for drive-thru records
Just booking bands and promoting band 13 13. I love it. It's absolutely insane
But I don't know that I don't think it wasn't a grind for me
I thought it was fun meeting the crackheads And the prostitutes
And the pilots
Wow
I would just have
You just saying that
Am I right?
Okay
I figured
I knew we figured
How you two met
Um
The um
Sharing a cigarette
With like Susie
In the gas station
Meet a lot of nice people
There's no doubt about it
Gas station
Yeah
Yeah
People didn't buy you A realica sometimes yeah and uh you meet some
of course you meet so many really nice people the reason why i asked you about the drive as we get
older is like i'm getting older and my drive has become less and less so i'm asking you for advice
oh your drive what drive like i remember my drive when i was 23 24 like i am i'm gonna drive 17
hours for 200 bucks well for that type i you know andy mine was never really good for that like
drive first of all driving because i don't know why my dyslexia but i was no drive like you mean
like the hunger like the hunger yeah yeah the hunger inside or actual driving? I still, yeah.
How do you feel?
You're saying yours?
I feel like I'm losing my drive a little bit.
But maybe, but can I tell you something?
You sure it's not possible to just fix that real quick maybe?
And I don't say that with everything.
Sometimes it involves therapy.
It involves a lot of different things.
But there is also like just to go, yeah, this is fucking crazy that I get to do this.
Unless you felt like your drive was maybe too much when you were younger.
Now it's maybe like a little bit more normal or safer.
It's a good thing maybe.
It's funny how that little thing, it's not that we don't, we just, then you go, oh, well, that's, but you're saying drive.
But yeah, that could be helpful, right?
Maybe I'm bored.
You know what, Andy?
I'm doing less.
We're all bored.
Are you giving up on your podcast?
Yes, this is the last episode.
He's quitting it all.
You know, if somebody wasn't doing a podcast right now
and they asked me the questions,
I'd answer the same way with the same...
Sometimes I think about quitting everything.
Do you really?
I really do.
This is not a shtick.
I feel like some days I get really sad and I just want to quit everything and like...
It's a lot of work.
Disappear.
It's so much work.
It's a lot of work.
What would you do if you quit everything?
Like, would you just kind of...
That's the thing.
I don't know.
Like, I was bored cutting asparagus.
So, I mean, I would get a sailboat and just go into the distance.
Really dark. Yeah yeah i'll be i never give up
but i mean you know you're being honest you're being honest i mean it's like it's like this life is so hard and it hurts it's like beats me up and it just gets yeah it's easy you know
we've said that in that sense the thing is
just oddly because of me having the uh the i don't think about it with comedy with comedy
nope i know unless something happens to me that i can't do comedy i still fucking love it but what
i do think about and in the last year thought about it a lot was the the the band you know
having a little band and having that working someone else's air and someone else's hotel.
It's so much fucking fun to do it.
Every time I do it, I'm glad I did it,
but it's a lot of work.
So I think, well, maybe I don't have to do that all the time
so I can fix it for both.
But it's a lot of work.
And you do it with...
Say, Todd, would you feel like
ever retiring?
Do you ever think you...
I'll answer that so quickly
because I hope I
wouldn't ever have to do it for the money.
I didn't really want to do it. I can't even imagine
these people wanting to see me and I wouldn't be thrilled
going out there every night. These fucking idiots.
Yeah, but he loved it.
Rickles loved it?
Of course he loved it.
Even at the end of his career, he still loved it. That's the only thing that kept him alive, obviously. I think so. I think he goes loved it oh of course he loved it of course he loved it even at the end of his career he still loved it the only thing that kept him alive obviously at one point I think he did
like um and that's what I also think too like this is what keeps me alive is entertaining and oh it's
fun it is really I really live for doing it I like fun to do right it keeps me on the road it keeps
me happy I mean that's what I'm most happy zen i think other than meeting you
that was you made me happy as well we both have the same story by the way me and eddie
um he's in another throuple it's another throuple that he's in that's why
that's what the police that's what the police said um but no it's hard man it's hard, man. It's hard, right? You're taking care of all these guys.
Even as big or small as you are,
as a musician or as a person like you,
it's a lot to handle.
And I totally get it, man.
It's just not easy.
But you mean a lot to so many people
and
you know
it's
it's
it's hard to
like keep it going
he's being sentimental
just eating a fucking
box of pretzels
I'm totally taking it in
and loving
to see the good energy
in the room
you try twisting
and turning on me
maybe you're not
such a good guy
that's what you wanted in the room. You tried twisting and turning on me? No. Maybe you're not such a good guy.
That's what you wanted?
I don't even know how loud my
pretzel eating was.
People are going to
go listen back to it.
Because you know
how I know,
literally,
I was all the way
back here
and I'm truth
because I didn't
want to be
Well, to be fair,
I don't have headphones on
so I couldn't hear
if there was
munching.
And I don't even think you heard it.
You probably just saw it, and you know I'm sensitive about my big, fat, crackling, eaten pretzel jaws.
But I love you, Dolov.
Thanks for always being there for me, man.
You're my guy.
I'm telling you.
I got a really good support system.
What about me?
What do I get?
I know it's your podcast. I'm sorry. I'm going to gonna fuck you know but but honestly I really can I think of
you as like like I think a doll of I could think of Jill now like I'm about
to think of Stephen Fine Arts after this beautiful night Danielle we're
connecting tonight yeah like this is this is what we need this is why
this is the type of thanksgiving dinner that everyone should have
it's all about connection and that's why we're trying to do this
that's why todd shouldn't punch his face
i do apologize for punching steven danielle behind the behind the shed why did you do? Because he folded the napkins the wrong way,
and I told him to fold them long.
How long has he been beating you?
Why do you have to make it a horrible bit now?
It was one comedic
pow to the face.
He's like, no, let's not make jokes about hitting.
They never...
I sprayed him in the water bottle.
I sprayed him in the face with a water bottle
when he did something. Are inspired dolov uh i i'm inspired by people like
you you know honestly like watching the drive and you know talking about drive like the drive
that you have like is inspiring i'm like how does he get up every day and
you know do a million things do your podcast handle the band and you know life makes him say this
no it seems very great
he does he does pay me. And now he looks a little afraid.
Am I doing it right this time?
I think Glass hates feelings.
He doesn't want to go there.
Glass hates feelings.
You hate the feel.
Andy, I love you, and you're not going to ever tell me that without me flooding you with love.
I love you.
I adore you.
I say it out loud.
Do you love yourself?
I do.
I have problems with myself. I always try to answer honestly, so you have to give a little. We all do. Keep you love yourself? I do. I have problems with myself.
I always try to answer honestly, so you have to give a little.
We all do.
Keep Dolav on the mouth right now.
Oh, yeah!
I love Dolav.
Dolav.
And I don't have to wait until he's not here to say it.
Like, we always say, like, I'll be talking to Vinny.
I'll be like, you got to love him because he would see you in Denver.
Always a good energy.
You sometimes take that for granted.
And I say the same thing about, well, I'm sorry.
I always forget your names. But I do take that for granted. And I say the same thing about, well, I'm sorry, I always forget your names.
I do take it for granted.
I do take it for granted.
Danielle, I know that, you know,
you're my guy.
I'm sorry if I take it for granted.
I realize I can call Danielle without Steve.
I go, I don't need you.
Yeah, we don't. We usually just go through Steve
And then I found out
Oh, I can go right to Danielle
Hey
Gets right back to me
A fun text
I don't know
Steve, I feel like I'm bothering him
He's probably editing something
What is Todd showing me this before and after fake photo he found on TikTok?
I've got editing to work on
But then I go over and I text Danielle,
funny picture, maybe a video.
Oh, I love that. That was so inspiring.
Boom, I watch it. Steve,
I'll see you at Andy's.
You got any editing work for me?
I feel like we're
close. I don't think that's true.
What am I?
That show where
you answer funny and then you give the genuine i go joke and then i go no but seriously i'll say
both i'll start with the serious and end with the joke if you'd prefer steve is a great guy
and i love him dearly and i'm not afraid of my emotions but you say that the reason is because i don't think you think it you
just sort of say it and i'm doing impersonation without knowing but if i slip into it no i'd say
because i mean it sometimes sometimes i worry about you i listen to i listen to your podcast
i listen to your interviews i study you glass you're one of us into the podcast yeah you're my teacher well first of all thank you for even in thinking my
podcast is worth listening to so yeah you're i i learn a lot from you i'm trying to be nice
i know sick and sometimes i worry about you oh do you really though yeah honestly truthfully well
in the sense of like just so we can get to get right to the point not me not me taking my life right no
you wouldn't never do that i wouldn't i and i don't obviously i'm saying that just so you
i i've had this conversation with other friends uh would you no i promise no no steve once and
i couldn't believe what he said to me i said steve just so i know he goes i take your life
i thought that was disrespectful but he said but he is there but he said as far as he goes, I take your life. I thought that was disrespectful. But he said, as far as he goes, no, he's fine.
But I've had this conversation with people, and it's nice to have.
It eases me when they're having a very stressful day
to know we've had that conversation about, should I worry about you?
Yeah.
So me, no.
No, of course not.
When he gets sad, he just eats'm a when i'm sad i get a
lot of people everybody knows it um i get into funks like i said but i that's when my friends
yeah you have a great support system around you yeah i have a yeah i love i have a lot of really
you know good friendships or like family without the drama.
It's so crazy that story of when you had a heart attack and Sarah Silverman and the people basically called the cops. Is it cops or police?
No, you know, I remember they used to have to call the police even if there were drugs involved because i remember once with my ex's mom by the way there's a double sort of absurdity to this story that for a long time i
told the story and i didn't admit that i was in a relationship when this happened so i would go my
mom when i was telling the story do you follow me like i've got friends my mom because instead of
my ex's mom you i never saw you ever in a relationship you just try to make it up and uh
and then uh and then i go and I say, yeah, my mom.
And then I would do the accent.
It was a French accent because my ex's mom was French.
And my friend goes, why is your accent French?
I started sweating.
And Sarah Silverman goes, you know him with his voice, his noise or whatever.
Like, you know, him with his stuff he does.
Whatever.
I don't know the word she used.
And deflected for me.
Thank you. Thankfully. And then she ended up
giving everyone in the room
$50. Why?
To look interested in what I was saying.
Oh, in the hospital.
So when I... God, this table.
I know it's the mushrooms, but
I just want you to know what I'm doing.
It's not the mushrooms.
It's not the mushrooms.
Yeah.
And I thought that I was already mushroomed out.
So I'm going to shut up.
No, what happened when you almost died?
Oh, so.
I will tell you that story.
I know it by heart.
Oh, my.
You told us that story, and then I had like a panic attack.
Remember?
Yes.
Last time?
Yes.
Yeah, he told the story. We had to take a break. He's like. I attack. Remember last time? Yeah. He told the story.
We had to take a break.
He's like, I try to do.
Did I?
That was wild.
I tried to do what somebody having we're going through would appreciate.
Yeah.
How did we score?
You did a hundred percent.
I mean, that was over there once.
You don't need to hear it again.
Don't ask what he's doing.
Just provide them once in a while.
Sneak in with a quick.
Do you need a drink?
Boom.
Out.
Yeah.
You talked me through it it
was a trip but you like passed it on to me i feel like from your story and then like talked me
through it and it was beautiful thing i really was happy you got on the better side of it yeah
because i didn't want the night to end like because i know that feeling you know it's not a
good it's not a fun like right now the feeling i have with the legs being wobbly i can make
anything wobbly in this room right now.
There's a point when you realize you have a power to not just make things wobbly.
Wobble wobble.
You can play, you can do tricks with your mind.
But back to what I was saying about you was nice to know you.
Well we've been hinted for, we have two, we've been on for two hours.
Shut the fuck up. No way. This is two hours? have two, we've been on for two hours. What the fuck?
No way.
This is two hours?
Yeah.
It seemed, it seemed like two hours.
We should go, we should marathon this.
Can I tell you something?
And I mean.
Let's bring the cake in here.
I think I've proven this.
I think we should, well, maybe we should.
Maybe we should.
Everyone grab a fistful.
Maybe we should go to close, Andy.
But slowly, because, but here's the thing um uh
what do you think the mushrooms were great tonight yeah they're nice they seemed like you did you
like them we were we we thought we lost you in the beginning oh i got nervous you got nervous you sat
oh i came in how do you get out of yourself like when you get that mindset like this is bad this is
bad i came in here.
I laid down.
The minute I laid down, I felt great.
I just had to be laid.
And then when Steve came in, he started talking to me a little bit.
I'm like, oh, you know, you start.
I go, oh, I think I'm okay to go back out there.
Yeah.
And he also said some nice things about my grandmother story.
I big shit up.
You know, Steve, that was so nice what you said about how my grandmother changed your life with only one donation.
I am having...
I am in
honor of my mom, my
grandmother, excuse me, in honor of my grandmother.
People know my Venmo.
I do go out and I buy dinners and food
and things I want in her name.
So thank you for donating.
At ToddGlass.
ToddGlass.com.
Guys, go out.
Shove it up your ass.
A zombie.
Whatever Steve said.
God damn.
I want to close with what we're thankful for.
Well, we already said it.
Now you're really just, you know,
you're really asking too much.
I fucking hate you.
Hey, did you really?
Is it?
Let's talk.
You want to talk like serious shit
I've been trying to talk serious shit
For years
Where we have this whatever reason
Could be real
Because we sit down
So it could be half
But the truth of the matter is just our friendship
Even this little misunderstanding
Whatever you want to call this
It's crazy that we're even friends
Am I right? it doesn't am i
right it doesn't really make sense because it just happened like i was like that guy looks fun
last time i had that happen was with um oh uh henry phillips uh years ago i go that guy looks
like he has a lot of fun every night on stage i'm gonna become his friend he might not even know
the story i i did the next time i saw him i hey, I'm going to go over there and make friends with that guy.
He's always having a good time.
So then, now, then I've seen your shows on your, on, back then it would have been Instagram.
Your Instagram, right?
Because about two years ago, you know, we talked about this last time.
I was just like, I fucking like the way this guy performs.
Like, just fucking, like just fucking like just
just leaving nothing in them just shred them just fuck if you're not shredding them then
don't waste my time sort of an attitude so whenever somebody performs like you always go
it's either do that or go home hey bud come on i'm busy absolutely you go out there like your
worst show that you have whatever you call it your worst show guess what it's good yeah your worst show all year boom if you could mathematically narrow it figure it out somehow
with your your worst show the one with that is great too it really is right now here's the
problem i feel that way and um i tell my audiences that all the time i yell it at him
audience is that all the time I yell it at him I do I because I because I I see what you do I see you go out there you you just shred them and you and then so
it's nice to see it's fun to watch I mean it's what you know what more could
you want like it's so it's like a revival you know and it's nice to see. It's fun to watch. I mean, it's, you know, what more could you want?
Like, it's so, it's like a revival, you know, and it's fun to watch.
It is really fun to watch.
I think that's going back to what inspires you.
Like, are we supposed to give everything into life every day?
Yeah, but that's not the way, you know, that's easily said,
but that takes away everything we just said to you.
Nice, because it makes it look like, well, everyone can just do it.
It's that, it's a work, it's a labor of love.
And some of it is just like, you know what i really do think it's the same thing like some people just have this you know they don't have everything i'll compare it to
something that's not even in the entertainment world using a drill i can learn to use the drill
but guess what i see other people with them i'm like they know how to use a drill you know what
i mean my sister-in-law picked up a drill And she goes like this I go oh no I can tell already
You know how to use a fucking drill
But I don't know how to use a drill
So that you know it on paper
Oh give everything you got
It sounds good
But then if that's not your thing
Yeah
No but it doesn't have to be my thing
It's like
Dolov's thing is giving love
And fucking taking care of everybody
And being that fucking guy
And he gives every ounce of himself to that Jill's like too. You give out all your love to all your friends
and all your, you know, you do your comedy stuff. Steve does porn. I'm a porn director.
I make pornography. I don't know what, what Daniel, what do you do? She's a writer and
producer. She runs it on. You're a writer and producer? Don't be embarrassed, Daniel She has Funded by her own money
Her grandmother, after a little bit of money
Has an SPCA
For any abused animal, they come in, they get love
Even if she just hugs them throughout the night
They all get a shot, every one of them
She was her idea
That was me
I'm tired of the jokes.
I told my grandmother no jokes.
That's what's going to be on his headstone.
No jokes.
No more jokes.
No more jokes.
Todd Glass, no more jokes.
No more jokes.
No more jokes.
I'm never fed up.
That should be the title of your next special.
That's how you, yeah, no more jokes.
That's why I want, that's good.
Can I say, I had a positive thought the other day.
I really do believe this. And you know what? I'm going to say it. I'm, oh, I had a positive thought the other day. I really do believe this.
And you know what?
I'm going to say it.
If I'm going to talk, I need to try to say something worthwhile.
But repeating this over and over again, what my hope is.
So at least I'll say something a little different.
But my hope is that, and the reason I repeat this, that I have faith in youth is because,
I have to quote Dr. Phil.
You ever have someone you don't want to quote, but they did say it, so you got to quote them?
It takes a lot of, you know, there you go, boy,
to erase you moron.
You know, like me, when you say you moron to a kid,
you moron, you moron.
He says to a dad, you know how many attaboys?
I mean, there's probably other more general,
neutral terminology we could use now,
but that doesn't have to be in the way of the story.
The point is that there you go.
There you go. There you go. And he does a few
and he goes, do you know how many it takes
the attaboys to erase one moron?
So that's why I always repeat that
my faith is in kids because they hear the other
way. If kids are as
a whole, you know,
Dr. Phil, this is Dr. Phil, just said the first
part about it takes a lot of
attaboys to erase one, you idiot.
So I feel like in society, kids get called idiot all the time.
So I try to counter with an attaboy.
I know I did it before.
I know I did it the last time we were on the show.
I know I did it on my show.
I know.
I can never do it enough to get it into their head.
Plus, it's fun to say.
I'm not going to lie.
To get it into their head.
And so my faith in them, and I hope they get control, is because, you know, they start to vote and they make some changes.
Because one of the things, hold on, it all led to something, me being in better health.
Well, Todd's got a quote from Dr. Oz as well, right?
What did you say?
I don't even know what he said.
It just sounded like it was not good.
The tender of it
that was his Dr. Phil quote now go to Dr. Oz
I had something
it was Dr. Phil said
that a boy oh so that's what
no I know why I said it because we're talking about kids
today that I was giving them that a boy
that I have hope
in our near future you know I have hope
and one of the reasons is I had a reason it was right over here i swear to god i mean i know it's
not there but in my head oh here we want to talk about this shut up i love that that was great
you didn't even ask me a question did you i didn't are you recording yeah we're so he asked if you're
afraid of dying and that was your response what he asked if you were afraid he asked you if you're afraid of dying and that was the reason i the reason when you talk
about anything i get excited is because i like to talk about anything other than this i'm bored so
i'm i'm biting anything there's there's nothing i really don't want to talk about especially dying
i'm scared to die i lay in bed at night i just think about it and then i try to watch tick tock to get my mind occupied off other things but yeah
dying i don't want to die and i want to deal with it you know in a mature way not just they go oh
you know say things that aren't true but like yeah i don't want to die but then sometimes i don't
think about it at all like most of the time most of the time I don't think about it, but now it's probably
50-50.
Most of the time.
No, no, let me give an honest number.
Let me give an honest number. I don't want to give a number
because I'm embarrassed.
That's not the way to change your number.
But if you go, hold on, Todd, because people
are going to evaluate you.
Don't be shy. If that's the number, you need to say it.
But also, if you don't want to
alarm them i would say it's mostly at night and it's it's of course as the years grow without
pinpointing it to these two years yeah of course it gets more and more because your own mortality
you start thinking about it more but it's only at night and um and then before you go to bed
not every night but i try to uh you know sweat myself to death um no i try to go to bed? Not every night, but I try to, you know, sweat myself to death.
Every night, I try to go to bed.
My hand was shaking.
The other day, honestly, I thought I couldn't remember something, and it really bothered me.
Yeah.
I was smoking pot, that's it, and then it happened.
And I go, I started to have my whole thing.
You go to the doctor, you have your early stage we don't
even need to get deep in because it's all it's not happening he's in the early stages of this
what do i do i already had the bus picked out and then i thought todd you can't just people
want you to have your dreams come true i go no bigger bus you know really milk them once you
see once you're you know if you you why not take away i need a bigger bus i'm dying look at me
two months i'm not to be able to perform.
Then all the big dogs come out that have to donate money.
Oh, did you hear Adam Sandler and, you know, fucking...
And there's a big Netflix documentary.
They're filming you.
I wanted Steve Farns to do a mockumentary that I tell him that I'm going to kill myself at the end of the documentary to make it sellable.
I think it's a good idea.
What?
Everyone call the hotline.
It's 1-800-TODD-GLASS.
But he, at the end of the documentary, I tell him I'm going to kill myself at the end of the documentary.
He feels bad.
He doesn't want me to kill myself.
So now, but it's just a mockumentary.
I love it.
I just feel like the killing yourself thing might be seen.
It might appear like we're making fun of people.
That's why.
I didn't know much.
That's why.
You know what?
Or dying of like something.
Yeah.
If it couldn't be done without doing, and by the way, we're not even going to do it, but morally, yes, I agree with you, Stephen.
Just do it.
I like that you care about that. At the end of your, at the end of the thing.
At the end of what thing?
At the end of your bit, you just kill yourself.
No, I wouldn't leave that. don't we're done oh my god i don't know the pain that i'd look don't i would try to
do it you know what i would i always thought that it's desensitive but it's okay you can you can
you can be you can make jokes about anything if just the type of jokes you make are the thing um people always go you can't make jokes about that yeah but some are going to be greater than others
there should be consequences yeah there should be consequences and not only that but like what
i'm saying with context that's all it's all funny because there's context that's why i try to give
it context you can give it really quickly by just acknowledging the what what you're swimming in and
then you can go back to still doing the bit with some respect.
What is it that we're doing it with? I don't remember,
but I know on paper I'm right.
Is comedy dead? No.
It was the killing yourself. Oh, killing yourself.
You can make jokes about it, but you try to give
some respect to
the seriousness of it.
But I think sometimes for people that I know
that have died and some people that have killed
themselves, I try to talk about them on the show and include them in bits.
Because I always like with Harris Whittles, I'll be like,
well, he didn't kill himself, but I'll be like,
hey, Harris, I still have you in a bit.
No one else gives a shit.
Oh, I always go, Harris Whittles, Harris Whittles.
Two years later, I'm the only one playing your songs and your bits.
And I put reverb in it, and I think it's working.
Because I did get a letter from him to stop.
I do do that.
I do do bits. When someone will die,
I will just mention their name.
See, I still include you in bits because sometimes you're afraid
of death. You should be respectful
of it, but you don't have to be scared of it. I used to be afraid
on the show. I don't know.
Explain the difference between respecting
it and being scared of it.
Respect is a silly word, but you know what I mean.
Shoving some tenderness for it.
Tenderness for the life and just how precious it is.
And that's what makes it probably so funny and naughty to also want to talk about it
because we understand how precious it is.
But anyway, so whenever I think of that moment, I always try.
I would want to be in their bits once i'm dead please when i am dead please i have so much footage of me talking about
more than norm mcdonald you think he's his is showing up on tiktok norm talking about death
it's very very um it's very no norm talked about death a lot before this is before norm even knew
that he was yeah dying this is norm he thought that was funny and um so he would always like look into the camera and and i'm not
talking about i don't think i'm talking about anything that's wrong but steve's making me feel
like i agree i'm saying yeah i agree i just want to hear the bits too because i'm like fuck it like
norm's so funny yeah yeah i'm not i'm not talking about norm at the end when he was talking to the
camera and dealing i'm talking about like you know end when he was talking to the camera and dealing.
I'm talking about, like, you know, 10 years ago when Norm wasn't, you know, didn't even.
He would still, there's footage of him.
Talking about.
Talking about.
After you.
I'm gone.
Yes, yes, he's not.
And I think that's fun to do, too.
That's why when I saw that, I go, I think it's funny sometimes to understand. And, you know, it's the same level of level of like that grandfather that did it in the coffin and then he plays puts it in his coffin while
he's alive and he says hey i'm in the coffin i'm in the coffin and they're all like i know what i'm
talking about this is a tick tock video and it's very sad the family's sitting around this is what
he wanted and he's saying help help me i mean now they know that he's dead i know this sounds crazy
but guess what?
It's exactly what happened.
But truth, this story is real.
So it just shows these kids sitting around that, like, even in death, that it doesn't have to be so.
You can have a sense of humor about it.
It can be both.
It can be tender and funny.
Because that's what it was.
It was tender, and it was really, really funny.
And it was like, it just sort of hell i think that helped more than a maybe if maybe some fake thing that doesn't exist that you're not sure of you can
teach children great things people think they have to do in the name of religion but you can
just do it like that right there just tender it was so tender you know maybe what we're thankful
for is life you really on that we're going to close out this.
I'm sorry for doing this to my friends.
I'm going to give them a free Uber ride home.
We're done.
We want to hear my way.
We want to close out with my way.
We want to close out with my way.
Yes, yes, we want to close it out.
We have cake.
We got to do my way.
We open with my way.
We got to close it.
There's pie. i'm not like oh i'm making you bake i mean because we've been in here a long time
and you know you're by the way so people at home know as i'm saying all this i'm getting the
computer so i'm not playing games i'm just saying let's make it quick at least and then uh but you
also know what it's like to have friends over
and we stop and do a three-hour show,
even though I told Steve we're going to do a podcast
about an hour, I sold it to him.
It's only 9 o'clock, by the way.
What time?
It's only 9 o'clock.
Right, so we have a night.
We can go do more mushrooms.
Yeah, we're going to do more.
We can go light that fire, get it going out there.
We can go out there.
So sometimes it's just a different chill.
And Andy, thank you.
I know I did take over the podcast. would say every fucking better than last time or worse it's hard
in here at your house i didn't would you agree on that that's true honest you're out you're out of
your element this is your area this is your layer you had a by the way your energy at your house
your vibe perfect it was like it really not you You inspired me with that. It was really nice to walk into, I should tell you that.
Steve sang something into his...
Don't laugh with me.
He just said,
little sausages.
I knew it. I knew he was racist.
Shiny little porno sausages.
Is that what you really said, Steve?
My real name's
Steven Porno.
I changed it to Pinehurst.
Steve has a maiden name.
I'm a good boy.
What's your maiden name?
A maiden name?
What is it?
Kevin B used to go, it's my maiden name.
It's Porno.
If you could direct any porn, what would it be, Steve?
Caligula.
Yeah, that's a good one.
I'd go a good one.
I'd go with that one.
You said $50,000 to make a porn.
Oh, $50,000 to make a porn.
You picked the porn.
I can't say it's got to be.
It's whatever you want, but what would it be?
I don't know. Let me think about it.
Give me a minute.
I'm not hurting anybody.
By the way, before when I was joking about you. By the way, before when I was saying, like,
jokingly about you being in a porn, I think I was saying, like, yeah, because you're like, how much money?
$40 million.
Like, hey, I go do it for a lot.
You know, we're talking amounts I don't want to win.
I didn't say be in it.
You didn't say be in it.
Directing it.
Nobody knew, and I changed my name.
What would the title of it be what would
it i don't know no you have to write it you have to budget the whole thing they want you to hire
the writer like old school like style and they're all like cheerleaders like hold on say that in the
mic i would do like i would make it like old school like cool like 80s throwback it's like
an 80s movie tapes yeah like vhs Like VHS. I would shoot it on like
big hairspray.
Bush?
Bush. Total full Bush.
Everybody has full Bush.
Totally.
I would just make it into this fucking great
hardcore porn that shoots in a locker room
and a football field.
It would be like artistic.
It would be super artistic.
You would do it right. Br brought to you by A24. He sent me pictures from the set. Look Todd, I gelled her ass blue.
Listen.
Thanks, Todd, for telling me all about gels.
They go in lights.
Give them a hug.
You know, I gotta be honest.
When they first asked me to close the show
with a song, I was
a little reluctant.
But I remember one time,
one time my grandmother
said to me,
I remember, here's a point,
I literally saw a video. No, no, no.
Try it again, boys.
It's a power move. Did you ever call you guys boys yes i call it now fresco i thought when pauline you didn't seem loving leaving to me i'm at a show
hey boys i'm like boys another thing turned to my bye boys boys we're older than you
um not your band i'm talking about guys in my band.
I have one guy who's about 80.
No, I don't.
I made that up to get out of the other thing I said.
All of his band members are older.
Yeah, they're all older than you.
By the way, I would think that would be funny to do as a bit a long time ago
was have the band all be so old and they always tell me,
yeah, you can't even sell out of a
comedy club you lose it like there's an aggression back and forth close the show glass i don't want
to be with old guys they're they're they're dying and i don't need to be around them they're dying
i need young people around me hold on what did we learn today we learned that uh well what did
we learn danielle what we learned two more hours two more hours we learned today? Two more hours. Two more hours. We learned it's time for dessert, everybody.
Get off my laptop for the last fucking time.
I don't like to be touched.
Don't fucking touch me.
Jesus Christ.
Okay, take your little fucking summer sausage fingers off of me, you little fuck.
Stop touching my leg!
I'm gonna pour a bunch
of water on my leg so you stop
touching it!
My friend,
I'll stay
free.
I'll stay my free.
I've lived.
Yeah, bring it. The life that's full. Stand up. I've lived
Yeah, bring it.
The life that's full
Stand up.
Stand up.
Stand up.
Stop touching me!
Yeah, come on!
And more
Much more than this
Too much reverb
I'll own it.
I know it's too much.
I'll own it.
I did it my way
I just faded out
Regrets, and not enough
I wish I had more reverb
And now I do
Just enough is good
I did
Now it's nervous
Now I'm better sitting down
This reverb is touching me!
And solid through
Without exemption I want to be close to the mic But not to the I plan The verb is touching me! And solid through without exemption.
I want to be close to the mic, but not to the...
I plan each chartered course.
Yeah, Todd.
Each careful step along the byway.
And more, much more than this.
I'm at least giving 100%.
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times I got a second chance
I'm sure you knew
When I bit off
More than I could chew
But through it all
When there was doubt
I ate it up
I spit it out
I faced it all, and I stood tall
And did it my way
I've got another chance to do better than that
It's coming up, so Steve, if I have any luck at all, here we go.
You can fuck that up a little, but you can't fuck this up.
Here you go.
And now, as kids subside.
Stand up, stand up, stand up.
It's hard, don't it?
I find it all so amusing.
Here we go.
To think that I did all that. And may I say, this is the hard part. Here we go.
This is the hard part.
Not in a shy way.
Oh no.
Oh no, not me.
I did it my way.
Give it to him, Glass.
Your moment. Yeah.
What has he got come on
to say the things he truly feels and not the words
of my knees the record shows i took the blows and did it my way.
The record shows I took the blows.
Ladies, you take it away.
It's your turn.
We did it! Mom!
We're ready!
Yeah!
