Starting point is 00:03:09 Yeah, oh yeah. Jimmy, you should know that more than anybody. Ha ha, attaboy. That's true. Why is my microphone so far down like this? Do you want to do a switcheroo? No, no, no, no, no. I'll work it.

Starting point is 00:03:31 That's going to be a deal. There was really... You guys went from zero to gay in an amazing amount of time. We got a Maserati. My Maserati goes gay 95. Let me ask you this, Jimmy P. Is that Sammy Hagar? My ma's a ride.
Starting point is 00:03:47 No, Joey Walsh. Sammy Hagar can't drive 55. Or gay 55. Or gay 55 for that matter. Think of the man
Starting point is 00:03:53 just can't drive. Period. Bottom line. It's too much Tombo Wobbo. That's right. Tequila. Go ahead,
Starting point is 00:04:03 Doug. You had a question? John and I were talking. I apologize. Sorry about that. Jimmy, did you go to see a Monday morning mommy movie yesterday? And if so, what was it? Doug, I can answer that question.
Starting point is 00:04:14 No, I did not. I was busy. I was traveling on an aerial plane. But I did see a movie today. Oh, really? You made up for it. I did. I made up for it today.
Starting point is 00:04:20 You did a make-up movie. Did a matinee today. Did you take the baby? No. No, sir. Solo today. All right. What'd the baby do? Just hang out in the car? Heads up.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Wait a minute. Yeah. If it's not a mommy movie, he can't come in. So, yeah, he... Kind of did, didn't he? Cracked the window. We're at the Century City mall there. Bowl of water? You're fine. Give him a bowl of water. Not like a small pet or dog.
Starting point is 00:04:40 It wasn't that hot today, really. It wasn't that bad, right? No, it wasn't bad at all. Was it 94? Ish. Ish. Were you in the valley? No, it wasn't bad at all Was it 94? Ish Were you in the valley? No It's a lot hotter in the valley
Starting point is 00:04:48 Yeah, a lot hotter It was nasty in the valley today, I bet That's why I didn't go I stuck to the Was that the movie you saw? Nasty in the Valley? I did, I saw Nasty in the Valley I went to a porn theater
Starting point is 00:04:58 Is that a good movie? And Valley, of course We're talking about a vagina Vagina And it was nasty It was curd-like. It was what-like? Nothing.
Starting point is 00:05:09 Not worth repeating. Four people heard it, and I hope to God nobody else asked me to repeat it ever again. That was gross. Oh, it was the most nauseating thing. Never mind. What did you see today? Today I saw a motion picture with my friend Greg Kinnear. He was in it.
Starting point is 00:05:22 We didn't go together. Flash of Genius. We saw that. I say that in my act. I say, I ask everybody, have you seen, I say I saw War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise. And then I go, we didn't go together. Do you really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:36 I didn't know that. And it's on record. So. Well, I want to pull out a, you know what? I need to get to my open microphone tapes because I have one where I said I saw Pretty in Pink with John Cryer. Wow. He was in it, not with me.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Way back. When I did that joke, I said that I saw Pretty in Pink with Harry Dean Stanton. Is that right? Yeah. Because I was already pretty alternative even back then. Actually, the first time I said I went to see this new talkie today called Citizen Kane with Orson Welles. And I actually did go see it with him.
Starting point is 00:06:05 We sat side by side and we talked about the movie. That's perfect. Very rarely can you sit with the director. You went talky to Citizen Kane, not jazz singer. That's right. Yeah, I waited. I wanted to make sure they perfected it. Finally, they're going to get it right.
Starting point is 00:06:18 It was a fad. This is going to die out. We're going to go back to enjoying not having to listen while watching cinema. Someone, all the organ players were out. We're going to go back to enjoying not having to listen while watching the cinema. All the organ players. I like the organ players at the silent movie theater here. You ever see them here in LA? The very powerful union. The organ players. Is that right? Local one.
Starting point is 00:06:39 He doesn't wear the half mask though when he plays the organ for the silent movie. He's just an old guy who comes up out of the ground. That echo's not bothering you? It's a little echoey. Okay. I think the microphones
Starting point is 00:06:49 are too close together or something like that. Or it's just too handsome up here. There's no question about that. You should apologize now, Jimmy. This is a sexy threesome. It's not me. It's not me.
Starting point is 00:07:00 I don't have a trophy. What was the movie you saw today, Jimmy? I saw... Repeating, I saw Flash of Genius with Greg Kinnear. Oh, no, I thought you said... Okay, that's right.
Starting point is 00:07:08 You did the joke about that we didn't go together. But I went... But I was really... I was fixated on that you just were hanging out with Greg Kinnear. And, uh... I've got some big wig friends. I'll, from time to time, hang out with Corey Feldman as well. Now, did you...
Starting point is 00:07:22 Did you mean to see Ghost Town and then it ended up being Flash of Genius and you were like, where is Ricky Gervais in a dentist's smock? For 115 minutes. Yeah, the entire time. When is the dentist going to come into this? Where's the ghost? When is he going to put on a tuxedo and run in and walk through a dentist? Didn't happen. It's all about a windshield wiper.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Finally, a good windshield wiper movie. He invented the intermittent wiper, right? Yes. And then Ford just ran with it And said fuck you dude Adios Kearns Wasn't the working title of this movie Tucker 2 It actually was
Starting point is 00:07:55 Another man and another dream We all have dreams We do almost on a nightly basis I finally had the alarm going off in the dream And then turning it off And then going back to sleep And then the real alarm going off dream I'd never had that until today
Starting point is 00:08:13 Was it disappointing? It's just weird Now it's like dreams are like That was more like a dream you'd see in a movie Not a dream you'd really have So it freaked my shit out You know what I did? I went back to sleep And I didn't dream anymore a dream you'd see in a movie, not a dream you'd really have. So it freaked my shit out. You know what I did? I went back to sleep.
Starting point is 00:08:27 And I didn't dream anymore. Because I had to get up too soon. And here we are. Thank goodness we can edit that part out. I wouldn't. We all can relate to that. We all have dreams. I'm backing off so that you two can have some cross conversation. I don't want to be caught in the middle here and then I feel like I'm overpowering.
Starting point is 00:08:43 You're doing alright. You're contributing the perfect amount until right now. This laying back thing, I don't care for that. Maybe go mic in hand. I want you in all the time. Just because then you can go back with it. I want it to be like Entourage where all three of us speak constantly but never overlap.
Starting point is 00:09:00 We're constantly having a conversation but nobody even for the slightest second overlaps with someone else It's just your turn, your turn, your turn Aaron Sorkin's entourage Exactly Walk and talk and nobody bumps into anything And nobody talks over each other
Starting point is 00:09:13 Well that's because they have direction, Doug Oh, is that how it works? I don't like being behind you two Like around the log right at the amusement park This thing is horrible Whose staging is this? You're from the theater? This is horrible staging.
Starting point is 00:09:25 You've got to cheat everything out. Like in a theater show, if you're playing a game of poker, there has to be no one sitting in the seat with their back
Starting point is 00:09:31 to the audience or it just has to be a dummy or an extra because who wants to watch a guy's back the entire time? A good friend of a guy. When he's playing poker.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Jon Hamm, I have a question for you. Shoot. Your character on Mad Men, what's his favorite movie? Have you done that thing where you sit down like a jackass actor and write down all the things
Starting point is 00:09:56 that your character likes? Or are you a professional and you just show up and wing it? I just kind of show up. Yeah, yeah. I didn't write my character page. I haven't gone down the artist's path. You never do that for any audition?
Starting point is 00:10:11 No. I'm sure he was a big fan of Sweet Smell of Success or something like that. I don't know. I don't think so. I think... Yeah, I don't know. I don't think so. I think he would maybe be less interested in the ins and outs of the hilarious back and forth of public relations and more into thought pieces.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Thought pieces? I like that. Especially if there's a new European. Like that Swedish thing where they're playing chess with death? That kind of thing? I think that's maybe more my guy. What are they playing in that? Because he's hilarious. What are they playing in that?
Starting point is 00:10:51 Connect Four? Are they playing Connect Four? In the original draft, they were. Yeah. And it went to chess. Connect Four was huge in Sweden in the 60s. Is that right? It's huge.
Starting point is 00:11:01 I bet you that Don Draper would be a big Paul Newman fan. I would think so. I bet you he would have been into his stuff. Paul Newman's dead, by the way, everybody. Wait a minute. Yeah, it's just in. Oh. That's a drag.
Starting point is 00:11:16 What's your favorite, each of you, Jimmy and John, your favorite Paul Newman movie? Cool Hand Luke. Cool Hand Luke? John says Cool Hand Luke. I have a problem with watching someone eat too many eggs That's surprising for you I don't like either the Jackass movies Or Cool Hand Luke as a result
Starting point is 00:11:32 Knowing how big a fan There's only three movies I can't watch Knowing how big a fan I know you are of the McGriddle I can't imagine I know but the raw egg Just eating the egg And I think one McGriddle is plenty I've never had more than one in a sitting I know, but the raw egg, just eating the egg. So it's really the way that the eggs are served. And I think one McGriddle is plenty.
Starting point is 00:11:46 I've never had more than one in a sitting. You wouldn't go 50 on a book? I couldn't go 50. That would be horrible. It would be nauseating. And what's your favorite, Paul Newman? It's interesting that you ask this. You know, on my very popular podcast that you alluded to earlier,
Starting point is 00:12:01 I predicted that this gentleman would become the lead singer of Journey. I predicted that on my podcast. We also predicted Paul Newman would die within three weeks on my podcast. So my podcast is a soothsayer. What's your next sooth you're going to say? What's next on the sooth agenda?
Starting point is 00:12:20 Let me just tell you that Pat Harrington better watch his back. Pat Harrington was of course Schneider on One Day at a Time. Yeah. That's right. I always played Fast and Loose without Hammer. You don't know what he's going to do? Hammer and a hairdryer.
Starting point is 00:12:32 That's never a good combination. Ever! The two H's? Look out! No one here is old enough to get that. No. I should have updated that reference. I should have made that a...
Starting point is 00:12:40 I don't know, a Steve O? Yeah, that would be good. Isn't he already then? In my eyes. What's the name of the kid on Two and a Half Men? He's a good reference. Charlie Sheen? Angus. Angus T. Young, is that his name?
Starting point is 00:12:57 Angus. His name is Angus. I got the half man. So your favorite? I like Absence of Malice. I also do like his performance in Color of Money. Academy Award winning performance. He was great.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Just at the end where he just goes, I'm back. And then he splits the balls. Man, that's a great scene. Now, the movie is about pool, for those of you who don't know. It was also in the Valley. I was going to say. He's playing pool at the time, for those of you who are wondering why he'd say, I'm back, and then split the balls. He's going in at the time, for those of you who are wondering why he'd say, I'm back, and then split the balls.
Starting point is 00:13:27 He's going in for another exam. I'm back. I'm back. Split them. Cough. I'd have to go maybe, since you guys didn't take it, because all those are great movies, I'm going to go with Slapshot. Oh, I didn't even think of the comedies.
Starting point is 00:13:46 All those Paul great movies. I'm going to go with Slapshot. Oh, she didn't even think of the comedies. All those Paul Newman comedies. The one about the building on fire and the one about the logging industry and the one about Mr. Bridge. Which one is that? Road to Perdition? Cars. Cars was good, right? No. I didn't like it. I didn't either, but my friend Matt hates it so much, I assume I hate it.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Gas prices being what they are, I can't afford to watch Cars. Oh, hey. You've got to be excited about Cars 2 to bring that joke back, huh? Oh, can they make a Cars 2 without Paul Newman? That's the question. Jimmy did a gesture, for those of you listening. He crossed his fingers. Fingers crossed.
Starting point is 00:14:22 Yeah, I didn't care. Cars was the first Pixar miss for me. The first swing and a miss. Because I don't give a shit if a car wins a race or not. When there's a driver inside it, but the car also talks. What if it's an adorable car? Well, they are. They were really cute.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Did you guys see Speed Racer? No. Yes, on a plane. Me too. I saw it on a plane. What a fucked up movie that is. Crazy. But I was sort of, it won me over.
Starting point is 00:14:48 I was intrigued the entire time. Won me over. But it's really fucked up. Crazy. Like every transition throughout the entire movie is somebody's face, you know, in full screen going all the way across the screen. Like repeatedly. Like, you know, John Goodman, like his face will be like a wipe to the next scene
Starting point is 00:15:05 and every time they're racing cars it's on these incredible tracks with like loopy loops and no gravity and no concern for any kind of or any cinematic rules so that you can know who's winning when or why or how
Starting point is 00:15:22 and how the fuck where does the chimp come into play? It's such a crazy-ass movie. That's the problem with so many movies, when you have to figure out when the chimp comes into play. Yeah, why is the chimp there? That was my problem with Slapshot, really. It's when is the chimp going to come into play?
Starting point is 00:15:38 Why isn't the chimp on skates yet? Come on. God, that would be great if there was a chimp in Slapshot. How about recreating Slapshot With entirely chimps Well what movie does have A chimp on skates An all chimp cast
Starting point is 00:15:49 Didn't we watch that on Interrupts the movies Didn't we watch Some chimp on skates A chimp on skates I think we might have But I can't remember What movie was that
Starting point is 00:15:57 Chimp on skates Who was the chimp That used to be Have a big part In TV guides Mr. Muggs Mr. Muggs? Mr. Muggs. He was on the Today Show with
Starting point is 00:16:09 Don Galloway or some shit like that. I don't know Mr. Muggs. Dave Galloway. What was Mr. Muggs? Mr. Muggs was the Today Show. I'm a 70-year-old man. When the Today Show first started, the host had a sidekick
Starting point is 00:16:18 that was a monkey named Mr. Muggs. What? Yeah, eventually replaced by Meredith Vieira, but yes. Yay! I was going to say Al Roker. It used to be a monkey. Yeah, yeah. That replaced by Meredith Vieira, but yes. Yay! It used to be a monkey. It would be racist. It would be horrible, but it's okay.
Starting point is 00:16:30 It's alright in these times. It's debate night. Why wouldn't you inject race into this? Let's talk about it. Let's do it. Let's inject some race. God damn it. Your favorite racist movie of all time, if you had to name one I gotta go Color of Money again
Starting point is 00:16:47 It's got color right in the title More color, more problems Mine would be The Color Purple Oh, you got a lot of trouble with that, yeah Very racist You mean, was the movie racist or am I racist for watching it? Oh, that's a good point I'm confused I didn't really think watching it? Oh, that's a good point.
Starting point is 00:17:05 I'm confused. I didn't really think about it before I threw that out there. Which movie makes you feel the most racist for watching it? License to Drive. License to Drive and Colors? Those are both about the city streets and shit that goes down. About the streets of LA, sure. It's only going to name movies that have color or some word referencing color in it. I was thinking about Song of the South the other day
Starting point is 00:17:30 and how racist it was. And then now there's still a ride at Disneyland that celebrates that movie but leaves out all the racist parts. That's a horrible ride. It's just two-thirds of the movie. It's just the animals singing and then you plummet to your death.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Do they literally stop singing when the formerly racist parts were, like, did they ever update the tracks? Or is there just a weird pause? I don't know. That was a weird movie. I remember as a kid not liking it because I thought it was boring. I didn't dislike it for its racism. It also had a weird mixture Of live action and animation. Yeah, well that was the thing.
Starting point is 00:18:07 The live action, like the fox was supposed to be like, uh... The bear was supposed to be like the white man and the fox was like a black dude. Classic. Who constantly tricked the white man so he didn't really have to do his work. Because they're sneaky.
Starting point is 00:18:23 That he was supposed to do. And then Uncle Remus was the old black guy that told the white man so that he didn't really have to do his work. Because they're sneaky. That he was supposed to do. And then Uncle Remus was the old black guy that told the white kids the story. And then, I don't know how this figures into it, but eventually one white boy, a bull, jams one of his head horns into the kid's
Starting point is 00:18:39 ass and draws blood out of the kid's ass. Which is the Civil Rights movement, I think. That's what that was? I thought it was the Underground Railroad, but that's close enough. One of the two. I don't know how we got on that subject.
Starting point is 00:18:55 Remus is a name that really has fallen out of favor, isn't it? It really has. You don't hear about a Remus. There's nobody's name Remus anymore. Remus Pardo? No. That's horrible. It's not too late. No, that's true. I saw Gretchen Maul on The View today, and they named their kid a boy.
Starting point is 00:19:10 They named it Ptolemy. No. P-T-O-M-O-L-E-M-Y. Ptolemy. Why is that P in there? Because that's how the word's spelled. I understand that. What does it mean?
Starting point is 00:19:22 I guess I don't know what that word means. Well, I don't think it means something. I think it's just a name, but it's like a really old-fashioned one. It's like pneumatic. Yeah, it's like naming your kid pneumatic. No, John, you don't pronounce the P in that. But you could. But most people don't.
Starting point is 00:19:34 But it's still there. There's no question about that. That's why it's there. But why is it there? Let's talk about language. Well, it has something to do with the Greeks. Is that right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:43 It's all Greek origin? I had a feeling you guys would be good together. Oh, boy. Now, you have a movie coming out, John. I do. Is that correct? I do. Called The Day the Earth Stood Still.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Yes. With Keanu Reeves plays the thing that stood still. He doesn't play the earth. He doesn't move much. What's his name? His name is Klaatu. Okay, but when he says Klaatu Barada Niktu... Which is Gretchen Moll's other child.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Ha! When he says Klaatu Barada Niktu, he's saying his own name. And Klaatu is going to Barado Niktu on your asses. That's essentially what he's saying. He's casting a vote for Obama is what he's doing. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:27 And when does this come out? In time for the election? 12-12. No, it'll be we'll have a new president by then. Wow, that's going to be a strange new world
Starting point is 00:20:34 when your movie comes out. All I know is that the Secretary of Defense on December the 12th will be Kathy Bates. Oh, she's a good actress. Yes. So whoever gets elected has to immediately take her on.
Starting point is 00:20:49 She won an Academy Award for doing to James Caan what most people in the industry have wanted to do for years. Just take a goddamn sledgehammer and go to town. You know, my father-in-law I went to school with, Jimmy Caan. Really? Yeah. Let's bring him out. Jimmy, come on out. Come on out, Jimmy. And now they both work together at the Montecito Hotel in Vegas, right?
Starting point is 00:21:10 Jimmy Kahn, I used to live in an apartment building in Pasadena, California, back in 1986. And for reasons to this second I don't understand, Kahn would come and swim at the pool every day. He's a movie star! And he would come to this shit complex in Pasadena and swim. He's been in good shape.
Starting point is 00:21:25 He was in very good shape. He'd wear a Speedo in 86. I had a Mohawk and a mullet, both. Mid-80s, buddy. That's a tough combo. Had a Wham t-shirt on. Sleeveless? Yeah, sleeveless.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Yeah, choose life, friend. Sorry. Do you feel good about the movie? Yeah, I do. Do you think people will enjoy it? I, I do. Do people enjoy it? I think so. It's a cautionary tale. Yeah, and it's a remake, as you probably know, of a 1950s sci-fi movie.
Starting point is 00:21:54 So I think 50 years have passed, and it's time. It's time for the update. Yeah, it's a cautionary tale of that sort of thing, and it's directed by a guy who directed The Exorcism of Emily Rose, which was a pretty cool movie for that kind of scary movie type thing. It was a surprise hit, that movie. And he kind of brought a cool sort of, for a big budget popcorn type movie, he brought kind of a really tense suspense vibe to it, and I think it'll be good.
Starting point is 00:22:23 I saved 12 lines in it, so... You're the star of the movie. Well, I'm the star of the movie, is what I'm trying to say by the 12 lines I have. Well, here's a movie you're not in. It's time to play the Leonard Maltin game. I will list off the cast of a movie from the bottom to the top,
Starting point is 00:22:41 leaving out the best names for last. If either one of you think you know what movie I'm describing, say stop. Are we competing as a team or against each other? You're against each other. You're damn right we are. Bring it on, Ham! Let's do this! This is from 1991. Do you feel confident?
Starting point is 00:22:57 Well, this is something I think I could beat you at, so let's do this. Do you feel confident? I do not, no, but go ahead. I'm looking. 1991. What's that? You were 11 years old when this came out. Okay, so this is 91. 91. So I'm 11.

Boomerang? I don't know. Boomerang's a good guess. Nice Urban Pull. Urban Pull is also a movie Jimmy saw. Yeah, I did. Earlier. Very true. guess. Nice Urban Pole.
