Starting point is 00:00:00 Bad dates. Speed dates. Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to another edition of the Bad Dates podcast, colon, speed dates edition. For those of you who are just tuning in for the very first time, maybe. This is not a regular episode of the Bad Dates podcast. Normally on the Bad Dates podcast, we have a panel of guests that walk us through some very terrible, painful, bad date stories.
Starting point is 00:00:27 But today, we slow things. down a little bit. You know, that's what the speed dates do, which is, you know, ironic, considering they're called speed dates, but no, they're slower, they're smaller, they're more intimate than the regular episodes of the show. I just have one esteemed guest with me, and we chat about a lot of different things. Maybe bad dates, but maybe good dates, too, maybe not dates at all. We talk about pretty much whatever we want to, and today I'm very excited to get into it with this guy. He is a writer, actor, producer, and comedian from shows you love like Keon Peel, The Kroll Show,
Starting point is 00:01:01 Bob's Burgers, Family Guy, and Happy Endings, and you can see him as a Survivor in the Wasteland in the new season of Fallout on Amazon. It's John Daley, everybody. Thank you so much. We're speed dating. We're at a Starbucks in Manhattan. It's six in the city episode.
Starting point is 00:01:16 I've been following you for so long. We've been, we've known each other through comedy. I've known each other. The first time I saw you just stand up was at an outdoor show during the pandemic. Wow. And I'd heard people talk about you, but you were so funny that I was like,
Starting point is 00:01:27 oh, okay, one of the funny people. John. John. John. Got it. You're one of the funniest people. Thank you. And it's interesting because we're here today to talk about not maybe one of your big comedy marquee roles, but a drama, in fact. A drama on the Amazon network that you were on called Fallout. For those of the people who are listening right now who maybe aren't like me and follow and love the show as much as I do, what is Fallout and how is it different from a video game? Well, Fallout, congrats, by the way, on your recent wedding. Oh, my God. I saw in on the gram. Thank you. And that's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:02:06 That's awesome. And great write-up in the New York Times, just like you want. My cousins will all be jealous. So that fallout is amazing. And it is, yeah, one of the most popular video games of all time. And the television show is the TV show of that takes place. It's got new characters and takes place a kind of alternate reality of, you know, of of the video game.
Starting point is 00:02:31 And I mean, the same world, but alternate kind of story. And I play a wandering snake oil salesman in the wasteland that sells and experiments on myself. I'm kind of like a if worm tongue was freelance and perverted. And a lot of the fandom will call me the chicken fucker for various reasons. And so the fandom knows me is the chicken fucker. I'm a snake oil salesman. I also have a name that will be revealed eventually. And it's been a great thing.
Starting point is 00:03:06 It's kind of a giant Game of Thrones size epic show that is a global sensation. And I'm very proud to be able to. So I have to say I'm a fan of both the game and the show. I've played a lot of Fallout in my days. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My husband, as you have brought up, is a video game producer. So he got me into the Fallout games before as a lead. up to the show coming out because he said, you can't just watch the show. You must play the game.
Starting point is 00:03:33 Now, if you're listening at home, you can just watch the show. I can say that confidently. But it is fun to have the context of the game as well. Because I'll say this, unlike a lot of video game adaptations that have come out in recent years, Fallout is so brilliant because what it does is it's an adaptation of the world of the games. The games have created this expansive, you know, world with many different distinct cultures and many different distinct, you know, ways to engage with the post-apocalypse that is, you're faced within the games. But the show really just takes all those world-building elements from the games. And it doesn't take any specific character from the games or doesn't follow anything, any storyline necessarily from the games, but just sort of
Starting point is 00:04:20 remixes it and presents it to a new audience. So you don't have to have played the games. It's a really, really fantastic show. Incredible drama, incredible world building. I think a lot of people I have talked to about the show come into it, approach it with a little bit of post-apocalypse fatigue. You know, we get a lot of them. But this one handles it so much differently that every person I have turned on to the show comes away from it. Just, you know, it's a breath of fresh. It really is.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Yeah, it is in the genre. And the violence is over the top a lot and just gruesome. but also funny. And I really, I tried to get into the games and I'm more like casual gamer. It is like when I'm like picking herbs and stuff, I'm like, okay, well, maybe this is my job now and I should be working or something. But absolutely, like they're so cool. And I got the sense of humor and was like, oh, okay, this is what it's like, this is the tone. And that's what they're kind of going for.
Starting point is 00:05:18 But yeah, it's so funny and over the top and great performances from, you know, Johnny Pemberton. Colin, Walton Gondon. I mean, everybody, the casting is incredible. Sweet days. Sweet days. A question I had for you is, you know, I read off your credits at the top of the show.
Starting point is 00:05:45 We've got The Kroll Show, Bob's Berger's, Family Guy, Happy Endings, lots of, if you're a comedy nerd, you've seen those shows, you're familiar with your work on those shows. I know I was before we met. How different, if at all, you approach this project, seeing as it is, sort of sci-fi drama, epic, do you as a performer
Starting point is 00:06:05 approach this kind of job differently than you would say, a bit part on the Kroll Show? Well, on the Kroll Show is a little different because we were like developing the stuff and doing it. So it was just like doing sketches that we wrote. So this is very much being thrown into, I knew what generally I was going to look like because I was told like you're a bit worm tongue and, uh, from Lord of the Rings. And, and you are the representation, like, it's an epic story with all these kind of epic characters, you know, who are powerful. And you, you're the representation of the, the common man who has no power, but is kind of like has to hustle. And so I have to like myself likable, but I'm a disgusting perverted man, basically. And, uh,
Starting point is 00:06:51 fuck chickens and, et cetera. So it's, uh, you know, it's, but it's, but I, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a wonderful kind of thing to play because it's a gray character, a bit like Gollum from Lord of the Rings again. And, you know, it's just like my intentions are not good. And I'm purely selfish. And as we kind of go through the season, you see me, you know, kind of get my mind erased. I shouldn't spoil it.
Starting point is 00:07:15 But anyway, it's a bit of a reset for the character. It's a bit of a reset. It's a bit of a reset. Yeah. And, but I don't approach it too differently because I find that taking comedy roles really seriously is kind of the best way to do it. And yeah, and unless you're just being ultra goofball and, you know,
Starting point is 00:07:36 messing around and sometimes that works too. But like this was definitely a thing that, especially with this season, approaching making the transition that I make, I was definitely very meticulous. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I got to say,
Starting point is 00:07:50 you're creepy as fuck. Thanks. Yeah. In the new sort of iteration. And I'm given power. Yeah. So I'm given power. And once he has power,
Starting point is 00:07:57 this is a bad person. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, really quickly, since this is a halfway visual medium, can you explain to the viewers at home why you look like this? Now, if you're listening to this, and you don't, aren't watching the visual component of the podcast, you look disgusting. Yeah, I look disgusting.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Eyes sunken, pale skin, cracked lips, just top to bottom, a horror show. And without giving too much away, why in this world of Fallout would you see you look like this? Well, that is a picture of me putting a homemade fallout gun in my mouth and right about to blow my brains out, which is kind of a place I find myself in, I think a couple times. But yeah, my character's just on the brink of civilization. I'm walking through a desert wasteland trying to make money. and I'm selling my wares to whoever will buy them. I'm basically, I really thought of this as like,
Starting point is 00:09:01 I'm basically a dead wood. I love dead wood. And so I was like basically, this is a character that would exist in the American West. He's truly a snake oil salesman. But the snake oil, we're dealing with fallouts, so we're dealing with kind of like nuclear poisons and stuff like that. So I'm testing these things on myself.
Starting point is 00:09:16 And that was kind of like told to me before, while I was developing character, like you're testing these chemicals on yourself and you give it to that, as Johnny Pemberton's character. And then they didn't really tell me what's. And obviously you've seen the show what happened. And they kind of were like, Michael Emerson is playing this guy
Starting point is 00:09:32 who has this, you know, boot on his foot because he got his foot off. And it's a boot that just saws off your foot. And then your stump is just made into this, like, foot. And I was like, is that in the game? And they were like, no, we invented it for the show. And I was like, oh, it's this kind of thing. It's fucking insane.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Okay, great. And the whole way through the show, it's been incredible with the practical sets that they have are mind-boggling. This guy, Carrie Gunner, makes all the power armor and the death clause and all the monsters. And it's largely practical, largely puppets. And it's a privilege to get to kind of like, and then you go into like the room of cryo chambers. And it's all, you can just walk onto that set. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:10:13 I've never really been on a thing like that. And it's just unbelievably epic. To talk to you a little bit about more about that is when you were doing shows, when you were coming up in comedy specifically. Did you ever, was this ever part of the game plan for you? Was this, was doing a role like this, I'll be it one that is like sort of larger than life in the midst of this drama. Right.
Starting point is 00:10:36 But like, was drama ever on your radar? Thank you. Yes. Well, yeah, I went to drama school. No way. I did. Yeah, North Carolina School of the Arts. They prepared me to be an actor in 1978.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Kids don't go to drama school. It's a waste of time. I've been banging this. I went to drama school as well. Where'd you go? I went to Milliken University, which is a downstate Illinois. Yeah. Very great.
Starting point is 00:10:58 I thought I was going to be a classically trained actor. This is my, we had the same path. Yeah. And that was like, I was going to do Shakespeare. I was going to do all of that shit. And it is so hard for me now when a kid comes up to me who's like maybe a senior in high school and is like, what theater school should I go to? Or what can I do to sort of replicate the success you had? Right.
Starting point is 00:11:18 And I'm always, it's so hard for me not just. I say go to film school. Exactly. Yeah. Or I say, go to, if you want to be an actor, move to New York and just take a class in New York. Like, be there and do it because that's the best prep you can get these days. Work professionally, just work professionally. And if you're 18, guess what?
Starting point is 00:11:36 You're like maybe not ready to work professionally. But by the way, there are tons of people who fucking do. But I went to New York. I did Shakespeare. I did Shakespeare in the parking lot on Lidlow Street. I did a couple horrible plays, original plays. And I was always doing comedy. So I was always doing improv in high school.
Starting point is 00:11:54 And I was like, you know, I started getting a couple jobs like during that time, Pennsylvania Renaissance Fair, stuff like that. And, you know, and so I was like definitely like, I'm 100% doing this. The people I was jealous. The only people I've been jealous of school-wise is the people that went to NYU. And it's a very expensive school. But I was always like, oh, man, you had all these. Oh, wow, you got to meet all these people. you really did get a jump start.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Right. But it's about meeting people. What they're going to teach you at that school, you might have an inspirational teacher, and that's amazing. And I had great teachers and stuff. But the reality was, I was like out there. And I was like, okay, I got my black and white head shot. If it was 1982, this would be, fuck, and I'd be set, you know, like.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Totally. And now it's like, take a YouTube editing class. Yeah. And like, go do, definitely do. I learned a lot. I learned what I learned the most by doing improv at UCB and just doing a thousand shows and being like, these are the ways you can be funny. And then I'd already kind of been like dramatically trained.
Starting point is 00:12:55 So it was more like pulling back out of that world a little bit. It is one of those things where a big sort of, I find it especially as a stand-up when I was coming up, like people were either started out good at one of two things, which was either joke writing or being comfortable on stage and like having that charisma to be on stage. And then usually those people were sort of deficient and the other thing. Like so many of the greatest joke writers that I came up with when we started out had no idea how to be in their body on stage in front of group of people. And it was like such a hurdle to them actually getting laughs because the jokes were funny. But if you can't be in your body on stage in front of a group of people, then like they can sense that. They can sense it like blood in the water. Like you're done.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Yes. And I know for me, I had the opposite problem, which is because of all of this theater training, I was so comfortable being on stage. I had no idea what to write or how to write a joke. I would much rather be in a crowdwork situation or an improv situation where I have to make something out of nothing than I was, yeah, when I was coming up, I was like improv, improv, even though I knew like writing was the way to go. You have to write and I was writing sketch shows and doing. And really, I'm like just in the past five years, I've started doing actual stand-up where I'm just writing jokes and delivering them. but the instinct really is to engage with something and to kind of like improvise around it
Starting point is 00:14:20 and I can get laughs that way easily but it's not the discipline of that we're talking about Is this sort of your first foray into like prestige drama at this side of your professional career you know post the theater stuff that you were doing Well I'm in a Cohen Brothers movie So that was definitely Hail Caesar
Starting point is 00:14:38 Check out Hail Caesar I really liked it I'm the first I think I have the first few lines in that. I play this cop. And, you know, in New York, I, uh, I did law and order, but I was a bit of a comedic role in law and order, but, um, you know, and then, um, yeah, I've done a couple things like secret welfare Walter Middy had elements of it, you know, but I was definitely like, it was an over the top world that was kind of like, um, yeah, but, uh, yeah, this is kind of like, this is the first big job that I've had that's like, it's technically a,
Starting point is 00:15:14 drama, even though it's got so much comedy throughout, you know, like Walton is fully, and Walton and Ella are fully obviously, you know, in a Western, you know, like, and they're in a serious, gritty fucking thing where it's all life and death. And so there's definitely like trappings of it. And my guy's kind of like this like guy who's warming his way into the more official world of it or whatever. So yeah, it's, it's definitely like, it's, it's a, the approach has to be the same. all the time. And so you have to, one thing about they can't teach
Starting point is 00:15:47 when drama school is getting onto a set and being like, fuck you, I don't care. I am. It's just impossible to learn in any way. So that's why I say, and we say,
Starting point is 00:15:55 like, just do professional stuff because there's no way you can learn to get over this hump of being like, there's 40 dudes looking at me. You know, it's just a different deal.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Like, you know, and, but, you know, so there's, there's that. But it's also like,
Starting point is 00:16:10 yeah, you're doing a different kind of preparation and stuff. Would you, at this point, in your career, would you ever, if offered, say you were offered Shakespeare in the park
Starting point is 00:16:20 or something like that, like would you go back and do theater in it? Oh my God, I would love to do Shakespeare. I would love to do a play. Yeah. You know, it would be great. Like, I just, it's a lot of time and it's,
Starting point is 00:16:34 yeah, but I totally would. Like, if it was Shakespeare in the park, I'd be like, hell yeah. Like, because that's just, yeah, it's like a unique American experience kind of thing. two weekends, you know, like some rehearsal time, but like not as, not as big of a pull as, like, say, a Broadway show would be for you right now. I mean, a Broadway show would be amazing. Yeah, I would be down to, I mean, I've auditioned for a couple plays over the years that I was like, oh, wow, it would be good to be in this original production at the, and I went to see Mitra at the San Diego in that San Diego play, and that was so cool.
Starting point is 00:17:07 And I was like, oh, shit, this is a cool little, like, scene they have going down here. And it's, like, packed and amazing. and like great performances. And yeah, so I'm down. I don't know. How about, what do you think? Yeah, no, I mean, listen, I have definitely had like moments where I think, you know, I was in, talks to go in an audition for O'Mary at one point.
Starting point is 00:17:30 And it's like, if I had the opportunity to do something like that, it would be like I would quit whatever gig. Yeah, Omer is a different story. Yeah, I mean, that's genius. But I mean, even thinking, I think like it's hard once you're in. the comedy headspace and you've marketed yourself and branded yourself as a comedian. It is difficult, I think, for people to take you seriously in some of that other stuff. If you don't get the, you're just not given sort of the opportunities in the same way, I think,
Starting point is 00:17:59 because people want you to be goofy and people want you to be, you know, they're sitting there going, where's the, why is it, Will Ferrell not trying to make me laugh immediately or whatever. But it doesn't it seem like every great, like, if you're really, really good, at comedy is specifically doing the truth in comedy sort of thing, which is like, exactly, it shouldn't shock anybody that Corel is also an incredible comedic actor. Right. Because all he was doing on The Office was playing it completely truthfully and, and like the truth of that character just happened to be that he was buffoon, but that was still truth.
Starting point is 00:18:33 That was still honesty, you know? And so all he's doing is taking that to a different character. And I think, like, it's surprising to me when people are sort of taken aback by, you know, people like for will or or Steve or you know any of those guys end up you know knocking out of the park in terms of drama too well all drama people say comedy so hard and stuff but it's it's it's it's like the opposite I feel the opposite I'm just like oh everything's the same or I don't feel the opposite I'm just like everything's like everything's kind of hard you have to like just like do it and work it work it out it depends on the the lines you have to let's memorize um more or less
Starting point is 00:19:11 That is basically the gist of it. Would you, if you had to choose right now, moving forward, if the arc of your career took off in one direction or the other, would you have a preference right now for comedy over drama or drama over comedy? I hope they start making comedies. That's what I'll say. And they are, they are. And I would love to, yeah, comedy. I mean, comedy is so fun. and it's, you know, it's just, it's, if it's good, it can be so good.
Starting point is 00:19:44 And like, drama, yes, like, sure. And I'm down for anything. I mean, I'm down for anything. I would love to, you know, have a dramatic role to, like, sink my teeth into. That would be, like, a miracle. But right now I'm just like, I would love to. I just love to work. I just, I love to work and I love to do, I'm loving doing stand-up.
Starting point is 00:20:03 And I love, you know, being able to improvise. and write on camera and stuff like that. That's really what I, like, if I can, like, write a little bit combined with acting and make my movie and do, like, you know, just like keep producing stuff. Yeah. And when you get to, when you get to make your own shit, at least I find this to be true, is you're not, when you're especially get to make your own stuff, your own movie, your own show, whatever, I don't think about it as, oh, I'm making a comedy or I'm making a drama.
Starting point is 00:20:36 It is like sort of whatever the perfect mix of what I want to do is. And so that's why it's so much more fun to do your own stuff because you aren't being approached as like, oh, you're a comedian, do this. Or we're asking you to stretch out of your comfort zone to do this. It is just sort of, you know, whatever is in my head is, I don't approach it as like a genre thing ever. It is just the story I want to tell, which is way more exciting. Sweet days. Now, John, before we wrap up, I do want to ask... This has been a great date, and you're doing very well.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Thank you. Thank you so much. Oh, my God. What is the status of your love life right now? I'm married. You're married. To a big fan of yours. Natalie Robamed. Oh, my God. Yes, recently married.
Starting point is 00:21:35 We went on our honeymoon in January just now. Oh, wow. So it is, when did you get married? I'm in April. April, okay. So you took a minute, but that's sort of where we're going. The nature of our jobs is impossible to plan. Yeah, things come up. How long have you guys been together? We've been together since 2020. 2020.
Starting point is 00:21:57 We met. What a time. During the pandemic, yeah. And got together. And our first date was like during a lockdown when they were having curfews in L.A. And yeah. And yeah, so we were kind of like hang out together and like I would meet occasionally her friend like but not really hanging out with like big groups of people unfortunately. And then like and then it was like, hey, I love you. Like we should get married. I guess we should like meet all our friends and hang out together. And then we were just like, okay, let's get married. And yeah, she's the best. She's got a writer and a podcaster. She does a podcast called Infamous with Vanessa Gregoriatis. That's amazing. And she's amazing. And she's a She just did this amazing podcast on Allison Mack, the nexium victim, which is everyone check that out. I'm going to be sat for that one. Seated.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Yeah. If you had to do it over again, what about falling in love in the pandemic sort of made it easier or more difficult? Did you think it would have played out exactly as it played out had you met during a non-sort of crisis moment in our world? I really think it would have played out the same-ish because it would have been like maybe a faster thing because I feel like everything just slowed down and it was very depressing, like really rough. So you think it would have happened fast. You don't think the pandemic accelerated things. You think it actually sort of impeded the process. It was a nice thing to be able to be like, let's go out of town together. I don't know. There's something about it that's really nice. yeah, but there's definitely like, it's hard to get back into that mindset because I remember thinking like, okay, well, I love this person. This is a perfect relationship, perfect partner
Starting point is 00:23:46 for me. And like, I'm down. Like, let's have babies now, you know, kind of thing. And like, but there was a part, like, I think that now, but during the pandemic, I was definitely like, yeah, but we got to like meet each other's friends and make sure that's okay. Even though I kind of knew that would be okay, that's the mindset I was. in, like, let's take it a little bit slow kind of thing, you know, and I don't know if that's, yeah, I don't really know. That's interesting. Like, but I do feel it slowed down kind of everything. And like, I was like, yeah, it was, it was garbage. Yeah, the worst. Not the best. But you found something awesome. Yeah, that was the best part of the pandemic. So that is great. Congratulations
Starting point is 00:24:25 on that. So I asked two different questions to every speed date, guests that I have on here. hopefully you're made a little bit familiar with it. But the first question is, is what is your favorite or most memorable or the thing that influenced you most from pop culture with regard to romance? Like what is a relationship or a story or a song from pop culture that you point to is sort of the thing that made you say, like, I want that. Like if my relationship looks at anything, I want it to look like that. Oh, okay. New York State of Mind by Billy Joel How he feels about New York and Long Island Sound.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Maybe downeaster Alexa, how he feels about that beautiful boat. Yeah, I don't know if there's a pop culture thing. Maybe that's probably healthy. I think I thought that the movie Ghost was romantic, but that woman's dead. That's ridiculous thing to say. But I remember seeing that and being like really young
Starting point is 00:25:28 and being like, oh, wow, that's what romance is. She's dead. and she really, she, but it's so, she is a stupid answer. Well, he's dead, isn't he? Oh, no, he's dead. So I would be dead. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:38 And that would be great. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Kill me if you guys want to kill me. Kill me now. I would love to be a ghost. I want to be a ghost in love so bad. Yeah, it'd be so much easier.
Starting point is 00:25:47 I mean, that is, that is, I mean, like, talk about a model for love is that I love is that I love so much that I'm going to come back as a ghost and fuck them as a ghost. Yeah. That's how deep our love is. Yeah. I think that's a really great answer. I think it's problematic that he fucked her as a ghost.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Yeah, I mean, the consent issues. I think it's actually quite disgusting. Yeah, it's really fucked up. We just don't know. We just don't know. I think that's a great answer. Thank you. Thank you so much for indulging me on that.
Starting point is 00:26:15 And now, a slightly easier question for you to end things out here before I let you go is, what is making you believe in love this week? And this can, again, be something you've seen in the media. It can be something you've seen on the street. It can be the, the. the laughter of a child. Yeah. It can be literally as, it's a nebulous as nebulous can be this question.
Starting point is 00:26:38 You know what? Here's what, it's a tough time right now to believe in love. And my wife makes me believe in love. But one thing we did was we got this. There's an amazing L.A. artist named Ghetto Picasso that makes amazing spray ink t-shirts. and we have a dog named Peaches. That's the best. And we just, as a tribute to her, got this insane Peaches giant T-shirt that we're now afraid to wear.
Starting point is 00:27:10 We're just going to get it framed because it's so good. This guy is just so good at spray paint art. And it's of our dog. It's three different pictures of the dog. Whoa. And it says Peaches at the top. And then there's a big peach in front. And it's fucking beautiful.
Starting point is 00:27:23 And it was a good just tribute like, man, we love this dog. This is the best dog I've ever known. like let's get her a like let's just commemorate this so pure so pure that was that maybe believe in love love that i love that that's one of my favorite answers i've heard recently to this question there is so many there's so much bullshit that people bring in to this studio when i asked yeah that was pre-planned shit i was spontaneous exactly exactly there's nothing more pure than the love you have for your dog thank you um so i love that um thank you so much john for joining me today on this episode of bad date speed date edition um
Starting point is 00:27:58 If you'd like to check out John and what he's currently killing it and crushing it in, it is Fallout. It is available on Amazon Prime right now. We're about more than halfway through the season at time of recording. So you have plenty to catch up on one incredible first season and now about a little more than half of a second season. It is great. It is funny. It is disgusting. It is scary.
Starting point is 00:28:22 It is exciting. I will plug the thing that also is this adjacent thing that I'm doing, called the fake fallout talk show. That was just kind of a press day thing that I did, but it's got like 10 million hits online, and it's doing very well. So fuck it. I'm going to say, check out the weird thing that is the fake fallout talk show that everyone says is like Eric Andre, because it is, but I didn't edit it.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Okay. Everybody watch that. It's actually kind of fun. That's great. Tell me your views, that's not nothing, John. It's pretty big. Yeah. So that's pretty huge.
