You gotta go get the knock around yeah. I gotta go get the one thing that I need to wear. Fresh. I don't own it and anytime I get one it only lasts about a year before my body changes out of it. Sure. You're familiar.
Starting point is 00:03:45 It's really, it gets a week, dude. No, yeah, the body doesn't have time to catch up. It's always stains to get me. Oh, it's the stains to get you. Ah, that goddamn olive oil. Yeah. Woo! That Marcelo sauce sticks.
Starting point is 00:03:55 I'm telling you that. You can't get the olive oil out and it's frustrating because it technically is translucent, kind of transparent, but it's just thicker. Sure, it shows. Jams me up, man. Yeah, yeah. Not good. Every shirt, every time I go out to dinner, I wear a new shirt. I account that into the cost of the dinner,
Starting point is 00:04:08 because I know the journey. My waistline jams me up. I'm surprised you're pretty thin today, though. You're walking low. It fluctuates.

It was in a banquet hall. It was in a banquet hall. I can smell that place. A banquet hall that needed a reno. A lot of them do out there.
Starting point is 00:06:20 They got chaffing dishes that are about 45 years old. I mean this place, I mean it looked like Tooties. It was a little like a lot of plank wood. Oh, yeah Yeah, I don't think they changed it since the 80s the sternos or just zippos. Yeah Running we went into the game room and they had the basketball shoot, but it was a carpenter made it So it was like built out of wood and painted black and one of the rims was down. Yeah, somebody done somebody dumped on it black and one of the rims was down. Yeah. Somebody dumped on it.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Somebody, yeah, kids were crawling all over it. Chain net. Yeah, they had a Star Wars, Star Wars, Video game? Video game. Really? It was a really, I don't think it's changed since the 80s. I'm always amazed with those places.
Starting point is 00:06:57 All of a sudden the kitchen is just there and the kitchen looks like no one has ever cooked in it since the 50s. Well, because they, the business is so sporadic in a banquet hall, right? It's so seasonal, you're doing what? You're doing proms. You got, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Proms, Christenings, Easter. We do our Christmas parties out. My family's so big, we have to have one. We rent one out in Philly, and our Christmas party's there. It's a real middle class, like, jamboree. Get to get a banquet hall. Oh, yeah. Because you can't really bring people over to the home,
Starting point is 00:07:23 because then you've got to take the seats off the covers. Sure. You can't be taking a plastic off the counter, the whole nine yards. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Because you can't really bring people over to the home, because then you've got to take the seats off the covers. Sure. You can't be taking a plastic off the couch the whole nine yards. Yeah, yeah, yeah. People wearing their dirty shoes in your rec room. It's like having a party on a basketball court. That old one in Florida.
Starting point is 00:07:35 You know what I mean? Sometimes even the basketball net's raised up to the ceiling like it's a big gym. Yeah, yeah. Tough luck. But before we get into it, what were some, because you grew up, you know, you were of age in the, in the eighties, right? You were a teenager in the eighties?

Starting point is 00:08:22 they were big swings, huge, huge, like the fucking Zcav or something. Like what was the, where you look back, like damn, that was a tough one. I think I was part of the generation that made the switch from shoe to sneaker. Where sneaker became socially acceptable. On a suit, like? Suit, just any, no, not on a suit yet.
Starting point is 00:08:42 That came later. That came 2000s. That was hip hop, did that. That was 2000s. That was hip hop did that. That was 2000s.

Starting point is 00:08:56 Really? Yeah, but like then the sneaker. I was supposed to wear shoes. Yeah, like my family would always give me a hard time about sneakers. To put on a sneaker, you're going out. It was like a civil rights movement for sneakers, and I was part of it.

He stayed. I had him as a professor. That could happen back then. Now you could be like, hey, just put him in another building, no one will know. That's actually a good point.
Starting point is 00:12:34 That was a good point. You could do that now. Hey, Pappas, what's your number? You'd have to kill him at the quad.

No, I met David Dinkins once, the old mayor of New York. No shit!

No, my mother went to law school with him. My mother went to Brooklyn Law School, and she's the same age as Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Starting point is 00:20:44 So there was like three girls in all the law schools in New York. She was one of them. And she went to she knew Ruthie B too. She didn't know Ruthie B. Okay. But she knew David D. Whoa. If I tell you there was only three girls in the law school, you can imagine how many blacks to her. Shout out to this is after the Korean War. No Koreans either.
Starting point is 00:21:08 No Koreans. Two Italians. There was one guy. They had to pass as Irish. I think back then it was just really Thurgood Marshall and then David Dinkins. I think there was two nationwide. So you met him after he was the mayor?
Starting point is 00:21:24 I met him after he was the mayor. I met him after he was the mayor. So my mom knew him. He was 80. Were you alive when he was the mayor? Oh yeah, I was very alive for that era. Was he a good mayor? He got a bad rap. He got a bad rap.
Starting point is 00:21:35 It went him then Koch, right? No, it went him then Giuliani. He beat Giuliani and then Giuliani beat him. But a lot of people don't know, there was a lot of race riots during him. That was when there was Howard Beach, there was Crown Heights riots. Crown Heights.
Starting point is 00:21:50 This was in the 90s. This was the 90s. So Crown Heights was like real close to my house. I had friends that lived there. That was like the Caribbean versus the Jewish people, right? That's right, yeah. Which is a wild combination. So one of those heads, like.
Starting point is 00:22:01 But a hell of a barbecue, right? Nice. I'll take the jerk off the fish and leaves. Let's do it. Yeah. That was Eastern Park. Eastern Park was kind of a dividing line between the blacks on one side, Jews on the other, and they were Orthodox Jews. They were Hasidics. Old school. Yeah, they're Hasidics.
Starting point is 00:22:18 So one of those Hasidic And they don't fuck around either. Hasidic EMTs. The ambulances. They hit a black kid by accident and it just all the tension from the ambulance. They hit him by accident in the ambulance. Okay. The tension that was boiling up. Yeah. Gotcha. It just the riots. That was all into Dickens but the thing about Dickens in retrospect, he was
Starting point is 00:22:41 the one that started increasing the hires of the police force. The city started getting safer before Giuliani came in. He's the one I think that actually brokered a lot of those deals with corporations that- They get them in there and stuff like that. Get them in there.
