This episode of Family Trips is brought to you by Nissan. Adventure calls in the first ever Nissan Rogue Rock Creek. Learn more at NissanUSA.com. Here we go. Hi Pashi. Hey Sufi. How are you? I'm great.

That's good. Have you been watching a lot of football? I have. Have you been enjoying it? I have. They've been a lot of good games. There's a difference between you and I. What's that?

When the Steelers are out of it, football is dead to me. Oh, okay. Well, that's grown up. I know. I'm sad about it. It's a death. I'm not telling you that's how I want you to be. It's heartbreaking.

Well, yeah, I mean, I feel like dad is very similar to you, but then I talked to him this last weekend. He's like, it's great. Play off football once the Steelers are out is great. Oh, good. Because it's just football. It's just like a game that he loves. And yeah, and it's been, there were a lot of great games this last weekend.

I was very relieved because I could tell, I sort of know who mom's rooting for. Oh yeah. And I feel like every team she was rooting for lost this weekend until the Bills won. Yes, I called her, also, I believe this is gonna air after the AFCNFC Championship games. I hope those are good games.

Yeah. But, so I spoke to her after the first three games of two weekends ago, as this is airing. And she answered the phone and said, Pashi, if one of the teams I want to win doesn't win one of these games this weekend, then I don't know what I'm gonna do. Yeah.

Too mad about it. So I like that she both, I have to stop when the Steelers lose and she just adopts more teams to be sad about. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it seems to root for her. I adopt teams to root for her. I mean, I'm rooting, I just don't, I can't care anymore.

Like I'm rooting, I would like to see, once the Steelers are out, I was hopeful for the Detroit Lions and the Buffalo Bills because they have never won, and I just feel empathy for those fan bases. But yeah. I was rooting for the Rams because of everything Los Angeles has been through. Commanders was exciting. That was nice. Yeah. So, all right. Well, if you don't like it, then you don't have to watch it, I guess. This is a, I feel like talking about sports

and talking about football is a very nice segue into Sebastian because he is on a wonderful show about a bookie. I was, yeah, I was a bookie in high school and was maybe one of the only bookies ever to lose money. Did it happen quickly? Did like a big upset win and you were overexposed? We had one of our clients was really in the hole and that was great for us.

And it was me and my buddy Tom. We were running the books and then we were we were up and then our law teacher and our creative writing teacher heard about it. Heard that we were bookmakers and called us in after school and they were like, you guys got to stop this. And we were like, we will, we will. And then that kid like went on a run that night of just, just wins. And then we had to pay out. And that was it. So, burned. And then, you know, my memory is the creative writing teacher

mysteriously got his legs broken. And you claim you had nothing to do with it? I mean, he tripped his Icy, his New Hampshire, it was February. Hey, it's New Hampshire, it's I. It's New Hampshire, it's icy. This is how they talk in New Hampshire. Mr. Sullivan, what happened to you? Mr. Sullivan, oh, maybe sometimes people slip

when they get in other people's business. It's like you didn't make it too far into your paper without making an error. So you were a bookie in high school. Yeah. And then, this is cool, in college you had a gambling problem. Yeah, well in college I lost $1,800 in a weekend. And that's the last time I've bet on football.

So that is really, that is, I mean, what a lesson you learned. You lost on both sides of the bargain. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you tell everybody, because it's one of my favorite stories, how you and your friends were gonna make money to pay your gambling debts? Was it the fluffy? Yeah, the fluffy buddy.

There was... So we were in a bad way. You were in a bad way. I was in a bad way, lost $1,800. Another dude who was living in the same house I was in lost $1,600 in a weekend. And we didn't know what to do. And I don't know where we found this ad,

but we were looking for how to make money quick. And we found a thing that said you could assemble these fluffy, floppy-eared bunnies. And we could order a bunch of felt and a bunch of stuffing and make fluffy, floppy-eared bunnies. We were just like, it was gonna be our salvation. Yeah. We were in college together,

and I remember going to your house, and you guys were weirdly on a high. I hadn't realized you had lost the money. And yet when I came over, you guys were in a great mood, because you were like, the fluffy floppier monies are coming. I'm like, why is that good news? And you're like, I'm $1,800 in the hole,

but I'm about to get out. I'm like, what are you talking about? And then they came, and they were way harder to assemble than you guys. It was another scam. Yeah, we were ripe fruit for the pickin' for any scammers out there. So yeah, instead I just had to deliver a ton of pizzas.

Yeah, you did pay off your gambling debts. I did, I did. Did mom and dad have to float you the money before the pizzas came? No, I got floated money from my good pal Rob Fanter, who was never a gambler at all, but he had, he'd been working at a restaurant shucking oysters for a long time, and so he had some cash and he helped, he helped to not get my legs broke. It was, it was a years long thing that would make me laugh

when one of your friends, I believe Brian Payne would always be like, Floppy fluffy bunnies. Yeah, Kevin Lynch. I think Kevin Lynch was the real sort of the Lynch pin of that, but Payne and Lynch would play a lot of golf together. They were on the Northwestern golf team

and they just thought we were such dummies. It is the best. Somebody in underwater with a bookie telling you their way out is fluffy, floppy-eared bunnies. Fluffy, floppy-eared bunnies. Ha ha ha! All right, well, speaking of bookies, he's in a show called Bookie.

He's one of the greatest living comedians we got. Give it up for Sebastian Maniscalco. Whoo! Family trips with the Myers Brothers Family trips with the Myers Brothers Here we go. Hey. Look at this.

Look at this. It's like Star Wars. Do you have a one person screening room in your house? Amazing. I figured, you know, it's gotta be professional, right? I mean, it's about as professional as we've seen. It truly looks like you're, yeah, I don't know. It looks like James Lipton should be interviewing you

and not us. Yeah. I just watched Empire Strikes Back with my kids, and there's a scene where you see Darth Vader from behind getting his helmet put on. And so it's the first time you see he's got like a, that I feel like is the reverse shot. Because it's that chair.

How are you, Sebastian? I'm good, how you guys doing? We're wonderful. Great. I'm very excited to talk to you. I mean, anyone who's smart enough to have engaged with a comedy over the years knows you have a deeply funny family that you have mined to great effect. So I'm so happy to talk to you about them

and the trips you maybe have taken over the years. Yeah, man. We've taken many, many vacations as a family. It was one of the staples over the summer. My father, the reason he said he doesn't own any real estate and the rest of his family owns real estate is because we took vacations. Okay. Does he regret that or does he feel like that was a good trade off? No, he doesn't regret it. I think a lot of memories were made on those vacations that we often talk about and reflect on.

So I don't think he necessarily regrets it. But I grew up in a middle class family. We didn't do like Europe or Australia or anything like that. I grew up in Illinois and we generally went to Wisconsin, Dells or Michigan. We did take a trip to San Diego. We did take a trip to Florida. But, yeah, vacations were something that were very dear to me growing up.

And and yeah, I'm so glad we got a chance to do all that and starting to do that with my own family. I'm fascinated by your dad was 15 when he moved from Sicily to the States, is that about right? 15. So I'm always interested in how those people conceive of travel when they basically take the biggest trip of their life early on before they're even 18 and it's to change the course of their future.

Well, yeah, I mean, this guy got on a boat for whatever, four or five days and came over with his family when he was 15 years old. So yeah, I never really even thought of it in that way. I mean, he did take the biggest trip of his life to get to the United States, and then every trip after that seemed to be a drive for an hour and a half, and he was still complaining. I mean, I'm like... Imagine what he was like at 15 on that boat.

Yes, so... So did they immigrate right to Illinois, the area you grew up in? No, they went to Mississippi first. Get out of town. Yeah, and they took a look around and said, where else can we go? So how it worked back then was, you know, the family had settled in Mississippi and they had like, you know had a sponsor that would,

a family member that would sponsor them to come here. And then when they got here, my family, my brother, my uncle and my father, basically told my grandfather, we gotta get out of here. So they knew a contact in Chicago and then left Mississippi for Chicago. So that's kind of where they settled. Did they leave their parents in Mississippi? Did they stay?

No, no, everybody. The whole family came. And yeah, so I'm, you know, I haven't been back to where they first settled in Mississippi. I'm trying to figure out where the town was. It's slipping my memory. But yeah, that's where there were a lot of my family. So I've seen some of my relatives from Mississippi come to a show in you know Memphis or what have you and it's it's wild. It's like they're Italian with like deep southern accents. So yeah. Yeah it's true. Yeah, it's funny, like,

cause I feel like I can both, I hear like, you know, there's an Italian, American, Chicago dialect that you hear so much because, you know, there's so many of them. And yet I feel like, oh no, I've never heard that on a southern accent. I have no idea what that would even sound like. Yeah, it threw me, like, hey, I can't even. I can no idea what that would even sound like. Yeah, it threw me

But it was interesting to hear I don't know if you know this the answer to this or not but like when You know your father and your uncle have a contact in Chicago. What does that mean? Is that someone who's just like hey like there's work up here or there's a good community up here what? Yeah, I still don't know what that meant. Yeah, yeah. That's fair. I mean, look, it was before your time. Rushed over like we know somebody up in Chicago. So yeah, they had either a family contact or someone there that was able to kind of

get them settled in Chicago, which I'm glad they did. Nothing against Mississippi, but growing up in Chicago definitely... A lot of my comedy is from that sarcasm that I grew up around in the Chicago land area, which we basically just ripped each other to shreds the entire time growing up. Yeah, it's a good place to be from when it comes to that kind of, I think New England, I feel like Boston and Chicago have that going for them. Like it's a real trial by fire to get out of there

as a young person. Yeah, I agree. I think there are two hotbeds for comedy. Have you gone back to Sicily, to that part of the world where your family's from? So my dad had quadruple bypass surgery. This had to be 12, 13 years ago. As his artery, his widow maker was like 99% blocked.

They did the surgery and then I said, we gotta go back to Sicily before you die. Because he hadn't been back. That's amazing. He hadn't been back in 50 years. He just left it behind. I've never been to Italy. So I went to my father and I said,

we're gonna take this trip, father and son. So we went about 11, 12 years ago. And he's been back every year since we went as a father and son. He, he got reinvigorated. It's amazing. We went to his hometown and I started seeing a lot of the places that he was telling me growing up. You know, he's like, this is where I played soccer. This is where I learned how to play foosball. I'm taking all this in and I'm like, my God, I start crying and he's nothing. He's just like stoic and I'm like,

this ain't hitting you at all. You're here with your son and showing me where you grew up and he was in shock. He had later said that when he went back after we went, he was very emotional. I think when we went the first time, his mind was blown and he couldn't really even process what was happening. But I'm really glad that we did that trip because, you know, to see him go around town and rediscover these different places and where his father's barbershop was,

which is now a travel agency. We actually knocked on the door of where he grew up. It was a three-flat. We knocked on the door and he had asked the people that lived in his childhood home, can I show my son my house?" And they let us in and here we are walking in this small little home that he grew up in and another family is there eating at the... I mean like this would never happen in the United States. Could you imagine getting somebody knocking on your door going,

we lived here 50 years ago, you mind we take a walk around? So to see all that, I'm so glad we got a chance to do that because he is now reconnected with old friends and he goes every year. Did he, how long after that first time did he tell you, hey Sebastian, that thing that I had no emotional reaction to when I was with you, I want to do it again? Did he basically, was it months after that he realized I'm gonna make this an annual trip? I don't think it was months after. I think he went again the next year

and then he met up with his best friend growing up there. And then he started to take him around and he's like, I'm going to get next year. And I think after the second time he went, he wanted to make it an annual thing. Obviously with COVID, he didn't get to go back. But yeah, it's one of those trips that often reflect back on that trip. As I'm thinking about it, my father had a mustache for, I'd say, 35 years. And on that trip I go, shave it.

I wanna see you without a mustache. He ended up shaving his mustache off in Italy and never looked back. He's had no mustache now for 12 years. So, a lot of monumental things. We've talked about it on the podcast before. Our dad shaved his mustache on vacation once, and Josh and I reacted with such horror

that he immediately grew it back. It was awful. Even his mother, our grandmother, didn't like our father without a mustache. Yeah, it was a loser across the board. It's traumatic, I think, for kids if you grow up with a father who has a mustache and then shaves it off.

It's like a different man. But I was, what, I was in my 30s. You were ready to handle it. Was it a bushy mustache? Was it a lot to lose? Or was it, you know, was it like a thin pencil that was like, oh, and I always look drawn on to begin with? Yeah, he had a, I'd say in between you know, was it like a thin pencil that was like, oh, that always looked drawn on to begin with, so.

Yeah, he had a, I'd say in between the bushy and the thin. It was just a nice little mustache. Speaking of mustaches, and I'm just gonna take a wild guess, you two have never, do you even grow facial hair, you two? So it's fascinating you ask. I cannot, can't even come close. Josh, though, has had a mustache. I've rocked a mustache come close. Josh, you always had a mustache. I've rocked a mustache for a little while, yeah.

A pretty good one. Yeah, I mean, it's my father's mustache. Our father's mustache. It's very much, it's bushy. It's like a little ski jump and yeah. How about you, Sebastian? Could you grow one? I can grow one.

I just, I feel like I don't have creative facial hair. I don't have the facial hair that would, you know, especially nowadays, it seems like every guy has got a beard. I agree. I feel like now we're like holding out for, now it's quirky to just be this, like this. I will say, I'm glad your dad made new friends in Sicily

or reconnected with the old ones, because I bet when he came back to Chicago without his mustache, he was dead to everybody he knew there. Because let's be honest, that's the capital of mustaches in America. BLAIR Actually, he was well received. He's a hairdresser, so when he went into the salon, a lot of people really you know, really didn't

recognize him at first, but I think he got a lot of compliments. So you mentioned your grandfather had a hair place in Sicily. So was this, this was the family trade? Was there ever anything else your dad did or was this from the beginning? No, basically when he moved to the United States, he went to high school and then shortly thereafter, I think it was the first year, my grandfather said it's either you stay in school, you find a trade, what do you want to do?

And he's like, I want to cut hair. So he went to hair school and started working with my grandfather in Chicago at a salon that my grandfather had somehow worked at and then later owned. So yeah, it's always been the family business. I was never pressured ever to get into it. It was never suggested. I did work at the salon as a kid sweeping hair,

but it was something that I never had any interest in taking over my dad's business at all. You have a very good head of hair, and I feel like that... Did you ever feel the stress of worrying that you weren't going to have a good head of hair coming from a hair family? Well, my hair is very, very thin. It's got a lot of colics in it, and I'm losing it as time goes on, especially with two small kids and a wife. The hair tends to end up on the pillow every morning. The hair wants no part of it.

The hair's like, we didn't make this choice. This is your choice. We're out. Hey, we're going to take a quick break and hear from some of our sponsors. This episode of Family Trips is brought to you by Nissan. It's time to fuel your inner adventurer in the award-winning Nissan Rogue, Rock Creek.

Hey, Seth. Yeah. Tell me about your inner adventurer. Are you a rocky trails guy or more of a snow roads bird? I'm a snow roads bird. I like to go up my snow roads, maybe pull over at one point, pop off a couple snow angels back in the car, keep on rockin'. Yeah, I was gonna say your snow angels

are some of the nicest snow angels I've ever seen. They look as though they, an angel fell from heaven and just splatted into the snow. Yeah, one thing I will say, a note on snow angels, you don't have to do them face down. What? This is gonna be a game changer. What about you, Posh Rocky Trails or Snow Roads Bird? Well, I mean, I'm a bit of both.

I do love when you're in a vehicle that can handle some rocky terrain. I like driving slow and feeling a big old tire sort of creep over a rock and sort of waggle you back and forth. And that's the kind of feeling that you can get with some confidence in the Nissan Rogue Rock Creek. And I would say a lack of confidence in the car we drove in high school which was a Renault Look car and if it was even a little bit rainy you wouldn't go outside. Whatever kind of adventure you are the Nissan Rogue Rock Creek is ready for you thanks to its intelligent around view monitor with off-road mode. The Rogue Rock Creek

Just talk to me about Airbnb. Well, we've got a trip coming up in the middle of 2025, a return trip to Amsterdam that I'm very excited about. We've got friends who got married 25 years ago. They're renewing their vows. So a lot of our friends are starting to book flights and starting to make plans. And our friend Jill reached out to me and she was like,

hey, what hotel do you stay at? And I've like maybe stayed in one hotel in Amsterdam and all the years that we've been going back there because I always just get an Airbnb. You know, I lived there. I went to the grocery store there. And staying at an Airbnb lets me have that feeling of living there again. And that's what I like so much.

Also, sometimes you go to a hotel in a city like Amsterdam, and it just feels like a hotel in any American city. And that's really nice. You know, the amenities are great. But when you stay in an Airbnb in one of these cities, you just feel like you get that uniqueness of what the architectural style is of that place. Yeah, and then you get to like stay

in more residential neighborhoods. So you walk outside and you just feel like you're a real- Josh, you speak Dutch. How do you say Airbnb in Dutch? Air-bay-and-bay. Perfect. Luft, Luft, Luft-bay-and-bay? Air-bay-and-bay. Perfect. Luft, luft, luft, luft-bay-and-bay? Luft-bay-and-bay!

Yeah. I don't know what the word for air is anymore, but. But the important thing is book your next awesome trip today at airbnb.com. Support comes from Talkspace. Hey, Bashe. Yeah, Sufi. I think we've both been lucky enough

to work with therapists over the years, and I think we've both been lucky enough to work with therapists over the years. And I think we can both attest to the fact that it's very helpful. Absolutely. I hope that those therapists also have liked working with us. You know what? Not enough is said about that.

I'm glad, you know, maybe we'll all send out an email. I bet if I wrote my old therapist and said, hey, did you like working with me? She would say, like, you know, based on you asking that, I think you should come back in. I think your need for affirmation from me, your therapist is a sign that things are coming undone. It can be challenging to find and meet with a therapist

that's the right fit. And Talkspace ranges from personalized treatment to meeting online, from anywhere to the ability to text your therapist at any time. But what about cost, Posh? Therapy can be costly. Put my mind at ease. Well, Talkspace is affordable and in-network with most insurance providers, most insured

members have a zero dollar copay. But Posh, usually it's really hard to sign up online. Put my mind at ease about that in regards to Talkspace.

So when you're when you're going you've got a sister correct, yes, I have his younger sister My younger sister so the four just before you pile into car or you taking your grandfather Never never did a vacation with other Families or people. Okay. And I don't know if that is normal or what, because often, especially my wife's family, you know, they go on vacation with other families, right? And it was just us and us only.

We didn't invite like neighbors. The neighbors invited us to go to the Ozarks. We're like, we're good. We got our own thing going on over here. But yeah, it was just us, no grandparents, no other family members. And would you stay at hotels or would you rent houses? Like if it was always a summer vacation,

was it a, were you going for a week or were you going like doing a month somewhere? No, there's no month. My father, lucky he took off the week. He thought he was gonna lose clients at his hair salon. If he left more than three days, he got nervous. So no, it was generally a six day, a week thing. It wasn't a month.

We didn't rent houses. This is, you know, when we went to the Dells, it was, we ended up going, this is when the Playboy Club was still around. We ended up going for a drink at the Playboy Club, which I thought was odd that my father and mother wanted to stop there for a drink. So I'm like nine, 10 years old, looking at bunnies walking around. Is this a normal vacation? So.

Is the Playboy Club at the Wisconsin Dells? It was either in the Dells or Lake Geneva. I forget where it was, but we definitely made a stop there. Yeah, so we didn't a stop there. Yeah, so we didn't do renting houses. I do know that when we went to Florida, we kind of splurged and stayed at a Marriott or Hyatt, but there was no renting homes or...

Did your dad talk about, did he make you guys acutely aware of how much things cost? Yeah, we were the type of family that my dad took a knot of cash with him on vacation, and once that ran out, we went home. There was still like credit card, like, oh, you know, like, I remember we were in Florida, we didn't have enough money to get into this restaurant or whatever that was having live entertainment we were watching from the window outside. I, it was very like money conscious.

Like my dad, the way my dad budgeted is he had about eight or nine emulubs. This is very popular in the immigrant community. Uh, they don't go to the bank to like put the money in. They leave it at home. So he had, and the way he budgeted his money is he took cash and he put it in the envelope that was labeled, it said fix, F-I-X. Like anything that need fixing in the house he took out of that envelope. He had a vacation envelope. He had a Dining envelope, so that's how he budgeted his his money

So if something broke if something broke, but there was no money in fix you just had to wait until fix was replenished Or you might start taking money from vacation. Yeah, I was gonna say, that's the natural pull. I'm not gonna take it from dining, you still gotta go eat. Gotta eat. Did you got, would you, what about allowance? And we have kids around the same age, and so maybe this is a question for you.

Did you get allowance when you were young? Yeah, I had many chores. I had allowance. I used to cut the grass, which was a big one for me. By the way, I feel like our kids just get allowance just for existing, which is just for heartbreaking. It's like it's their birthright. What are you giving them? How much?

We're giving them $6 a week. And do they have any chores? Do they make their bet? I would love to tell you they do. I would love to look you in the eye and tell you they do. So that's a hard no. I feel like in general, we're just like, just try not to behave in a way

that makes me wanna wring your neck and I'll give you six bucks a week. Now I do, I think about this because we also do envelopes. I should know, because they have three envelopes, save, spend, donate, and they have to put two bucks in each. So, you know, so at least two of it's going back into, you know, good deeds. Right, especially, it's gotta be good,

make you feel a little bit better since they aren't doing anything for the $6. They're not doing anything, they're not lifting a finger. On a drive, so a drive, 90 minute drive to the Wisconsin Dells, but I'm imagining you're doing it in the summer, I'm imagining traffic, your dad, super low key and chill on a drive?

Yeah, I mean, listen, my family, we grew up in a very funny family, so there was very lighthearted, a lot of laughs. It's funny, I mean, that's all we did growing up was laugh. I think we masked a lot of, we didn't want to get serious.

We felt that was really uncomfortable to get serious, because we felt like, oh, is somebody going to cry? So we, someone would like crack a joke. I still do it today. Friend of mine cried in front of me. Yeah. This week actually, uh, someone really close to him died and I go right to funny.

Cause I don't like to live in that like, oh God, what do I, I don't even know what to do when somebody starts crying sometimes, so I always fall back on trying to make it lighthearted. So that's kind of where that all started for our family. It was always laughing, always kind of relaxed. I mean, my father was definitely, you know, I mean, he wasn't always laughing, but I mean, for the most part, I come from a nice, really fun family.

We are. I mean, our dad is both temperamental, but mostly comedy forward. Yeah. And it was a home of great laughs, until something went a little bit wrong. LAUGHS But if I would cry growing up, I would just run up to my bedroom. I would do it up there.

And then people would be like, all right, when you're ready to laugh again, come back downstairs. Just get this out of the way. Do it upstairs, please. My wife comes from a very different family where all they do is talk about emotions and problems. Like when a problem comes up, they're amazing,

but they don't laugh it off. And my wife is always pointing out, like maybe your family laughed too know laugh too much growing up and that's why you guys are good talking about difficult things and And I kind of prefer my path. I like the way we did it. I Do I'm not into this whole like let's sit down and discuss Yeah, so I do like the way that we grew up. I think it really established You know even to this day,

it's all we do is goof around and laugh. Why would you want to do anything else? Yeah, fair. What was the family car when you were driving out to any of these trips? We had a Cutlass. I remember we did have a Cutlass. We took that, which was not that comfortable.

I mean, there was no, there's not, cars back then weren't really, you know, now it's like you get a mini, SUV is the thing you get now because you got a family. Back then, it's like, we had a Cadillac Seville with white wall tires going to Lake Geneva. You know what I'm saying? It didn't, you know, you pull it over at a rest stop to, with white wall tires going to Lake Geneva. You know what I'm saying?

It didn't, you know, pull it over at a rest stop to, I remember there was a rest stop there where we would barbecue and the car didn't fit the trip. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, right. Yeah, but when you rolled up to the Playboy Club. Yeah, that it fit. That's where that fit in.

Yeah, yeah. That's what you needed it for They were like look this is obvious This is a high roller and then it was your dad and his wife and a nine-year-old and they were like, all right We got it wrong. We got it wrong Have you taken trips with with your children and your parents? Yeah So my parents are divorced. So apparently the laughing didn't work So my parents are divorced, so apparently the laughing didn't work. But... Oh, now the other shoe drops.

So, yeah, so I took my mother and I took my sister and their family. We went to Italy, this was maybe six years ago. And then I took my father to Mexico this year. So yeah, it's, yeah, now we're doing more family type trips than we ever have growing up. Like we're incorporating, you know, the cousins and what have you. Did you have big, deep family

in the Chicago area growing up? I mean, I did have a lot of cousins, not necessarily first cousins, but there's a lot of second, third cousins, but never really went on vacation. I don't even think they went on vacation. Vacation, again, they were buying real estate and we were in the delts.

Yeah. I mean, we were, Josh and I, it's just the two of us, so we were a core four as well, and we never went on vacation with anybody else. Yeah and I, it's just the two of us. So we were a core four as well. And we never went on vacation with anybody else. Yeah. Like it was always just the four of us. We'd have grandparents come stay with us, but we wouldn't go anywhere with them.

Yeah, we'd never take them anywhere. Yeah. That would have been a disaster. Don't you think that changed now? Where like families are meeting other families on vacation? A hundred percent. My parents never talked to anybody. And you know what I remember? Do you ever remember this, Josh?

I remember when Sam was a young couple that we befriended because they were just out at the pool in Florida. And then we saw them at the airport and there was some reason, maybe their wallet got stolen and Dad gave them 200 bucks because they were in a panic. And he gave them our address and they were like, we'll send you the money. And I remember they never sent the money.

Sorry, guys. And I remember that. I feel like that was, the moral I took away from that is never talk to people on vacation. Yeah, that's a real once bit and twice shy right there. Yeah, I don't recall that, but yeah, we didn't, yeah, we weren't making friends. Do your kids, how do your kids,

they must have different relationships with your dad and your mom. Like how do they see your dad and how do they see your mom? How old are your kids now, five and seven? Yeah, five and seven. My mother lives here in California. My dad lives in Chicago. So they see them all the time? They don't see him as much as probably I or my mother

would like just because she lives about 40 minutes away. And she doesn't really drive. So yeah, I mean, it's funny. I don't think that my kids have the relationship with their grandparents like I had with mine. I saw mine pretty much once a week. Every Sunday was like Sunday supper and we went to go see them and it was a little bit more ritualistic.

But here, you know, I'm traveling a lot. There's a lot of just like a moving parts that sometimes we don't get the chance to maybe see the people that we that mean the most to us, especially my father living in Chicago. He sees them once or twice a week. So there isn't really a bond there that I think I had with my grandparents. It is pretty cool that you had that.

I feel like my wife's family, they live in the city as well. And I'm very happy my kids see them as often as they do. But I do of course wish they saw my parents a little bit more. Although we never saw our grandparents with any regularity. Is that due to proximity of where they lived? Proximity, and they were just so old. Like I also, I feel like, don't you think Josh?

I mean, certainly, I mean, think Josh? I mean, certainly. I mean, they looked, I mean, to kids, anyone who's over 60 is ancient. And our, you know, our grandmother. Dad's mom was old. Yeah, she was. Yeah. I like how you say dad's mom,

it's not even grandma. Yeah. It's dad's mom. Mom's mom was pretty old. We were very informal. I don't, I'm like, I was always like, I don't want to call you grandma. Yeah. It's dad's mom. Mom's mom. We were very informal. I don't, I'm like, I was always like, I don't want to call you grandma. I got another one of those.

I'm going to call you grandma. I don't want to get confused. I mean, we would see Addie, our mom's mom, with more regularity because she was only an hour away. So we'd drive down to mom's hometown. But she was fascinating because she had no interest in, for a long time, she had no interest in seeing us. Like she was fascinating because she had no interest in, for a long time she had no interest in seeing us. Like she was only interested in us till we were,

I would say like 13. Yeah, I think even older than that. Yeah, she just, we had our mom's mom as I called her. She was like a real fancy lady that just didn't have any interest in kids. But then she took interest in us. When we were like older, she liked us. Yeah, she liked her kids, just not her kids' kids,

as she called us. Yeah. So where, what's the biggest trip you've taken with your kids? Because that's, I mean, it's the age where it's still, it's like they, you are making memories when you take them on a big trip, but they're a little bit of a pain to travel with.

We haven't taken, like, we want to take them to a big trip, but they're a little bit of a pain to travel with. We haven't taken, like, we want to take them to Europe. We want to do that Italy trip. And we are actually talking about doing a large trip this summer. And I was going to perform in some of these European and Scandinavian countries. I've never toured Europe at all.

So we were trying to, wouldn't it be fun to take the kids to say, Greece, I do a couple of shows and we stay in Greece for a few nights and then move over to Austria or whatever. Listen, I've often debated this and I don't know if you guys are, my wife is communicating with me now through Instagram. Oh yes, mine is too.

So I get videos of like, do it now, the memories are gonna be made now if you wait, and then there's an old guy in a wheelchair. And I go, are you trying to down, I feel like we have a whole Instagram relationship of videos that we send one another, and we're talking via through the videos. But then when we get together, she'll go, oh, did you see the video about the guy dying

and you should do stuff now? I go, yeah, well, you could have just told me that. Over dinner, you know? We could have taken out the middleman, especially since the middleman was a dead guy. Yeah, but we want to take this monumental trip, and I keep saying, you know, are the kids going to remember this?

Do you remember Five? Maybe I started remembering stuff at five, but what's the take over under when kids start really appreciating this? Over five. Yeah, over five. I also think that like, the reality is you just take a bunch of pictures

that you show them later. And so they remember the pictures and then they, Well, the reality is you just take a bunch of pictures that you show them later. And so they remember the pictures and then they appreciate, oh, yeah, we went there. They have no memory of it. They just remember the pictures. Yeah. I mean, when you look at pictures back when you were five and you guys went to wherever you guys went on vacation, I'm sure you're not looking at it going, oh yeah, then after that

we went to get ice cream at that ice cream place. So what the hell are we doing? Are we just making memories for my wife and I so we could shh? You don't sound interested in that. I mean, I think if it's me, I get a green screen. I roll a green screen in, take some pictures, get your showbiz people to backdrop the Leaning Power pizza. Sorry, I'm having a small technical issue. Give me one second, guys.

Keith, talk amongst yourself. I wonder what his issue is. You think it's the bathroom? I don't know. The way he walked away, that's what I'm starting to think it is. It's just a... I don't think it's a technical issue.

Yeah, but it's like the body sort of has some technology that needs to be worked out. Hey, we're going to take a quick break and hear from some of our sponsors. Support for Family Trips comes from Public Rec. Hey Poshie. Yes, Oofy. Talk to me about Public Rec. Oh, man. These pants, they're so comfortable.

They're so cozy. And then again, yeah, they just, they have a look that is a cut above, I would say.

Listen, we were talking in regards to the technical issue, which we don't believe it was. We believe it's possibly a bathroom break or something happened. It was, yeah. I'll just admit it was a bathroom break, yeah. I'm not going to sit here and pretend. I mean, I thought my acting would have been good, but I'm not going to lie. Who's also like, I got a technical problem.

Let me walk away from all the technology. Yeah, sure. Oops. Uh, got me dead to rights there. It was not, I think it speaks to the level of emergency it was that I did not lay in the groundwork to make it a believable backstory. Yeah, yeah.

Agreed, agreed. So, Sebastian, growing up, when you're going to these trips, the Dells or whatever, like, what are you doing when you get there? Like, what are your days? Are you, is it lake life? Is it, you know, checking out little towns? What are these?

Yeah, yeah, so in the Dells, it was generally the pool. We didn't have a pool in our house growing up, so anytime you got around a pool, it's like you spend the it was generally the pool. We didn't have a pool in our house growing up. So anytime you got around a pool, it's like you spend the whole day at the pool. And for kids, it was amazing. Oh my God, they got a swimming pool and a diving board. So it was... Is it, am I picturing a pool just full of kids?

I remember one of the pictures that I saw recently of a vacation, it was just our family. And in the background, you saw a of a vacation, it was just our family, and in the background you saw a guy who looked like he might have been there waiting out a crime he just committed. But when we went to like a San Diego, you know, we did the San Diego Zoo,

when we went to Florida, we did Disney World. Our parents took us to Epcot Center, I remember, which I absolutely hated, you know, at nine, 10 years old. They were like, and they got mad at us that we weren't appreciating, this is Germany. You know, it's like, okay. So. I never, we never went, and I think, we never went because we had no interest in it

and I think our parents clocked it and didn't wanna waste the time. I also think maybe my parents thought it was lame. The idea of what Epcot was trying to execute. Well, you bring up a good point. Did you guys dictate the vacation or is it what your parents wanted to do? Not really.

I mean, I feel like we would semi-regularly go to Florida, just sort of like where I feel like people from the Northeast, it was an easy flight, and we'd get some hotel and we'd hang out, go to the beach. And I feel like when you were close enough to places like Busch Gardens or Disney, you would go, but mom and dad weren't so into those places.

And when we would go to a Disney, I feel like that checked the box and we wouldn't then also have to go to Epcot. Cause our mom just wanted to lay out at a pool or on the beach. She was there to get tan. I remember tanning being a big thing growing up. Like you wanted to come back to Chicago

and have a beautiful tan. And that was a big part of what we wanted to do on vacation. I'm trying to think now, it's like, you go on vacation and some people have to have it very regimented. Every hour of the vacation has to be planned prior to getting there. And I don't know, with my wife and I,

my wife is more of a planner. When I go on vacation, I'm just like, I don't know how I'm gonna feel on Monday. I don't know if I want to do horseback riding. You know? I do know, and the answer is never. I never, there's no way I feel where I then want to get on a horse. Maybe if I feel terrible, I'll be like,

this is the only way where a horse could maybe make me feel better than the worst I've ever felt. My wife's a real planner too, and it does. Then it's the stress of a vacation. Like, it's, I don't even, yeah, I just wanna go somewhere. And I think I want one of just those like hyperbaric chambers. I just wanna crawl in one of those by myself for like three days.

Yeah, I mean, that's how I look at vacations. More of just like, let me get a little breakfast, go by the pool a little bit. But you know, when you got kids, you gotta like, there's a sense of of like entertaining them. Let's go and do that, that, that. Like we went horseback riding. We were in Mexico a couple months ago

and we took the kids horseback riding. And I think horseback riding sounds fun. And then you get on the horse and it's like, okay, it's like within 10 minutes, like, all right, wrap it up. Let's go back to the, let's go back. This is, what are we looking at? Were you on the beach? Were you riding on the beach?

On the beach, yeah. So it's like you're on the horse, on the beach. Oh, look at the water. Look over here. He made it a couple noises. Go back to the truck. Made those memories, checked those boxes. My son was on a little horse, very low to the ground.

I don't even know what you call him, posh, you know. A pony? No, maybe. A miniature pony? I feel like it was, yeah. Could be a miniature horse or a miniature pony. Let's say it's one of those. Lower to the ground.

My wife is an equestrian, Sebastian. That's why I'm asking, Josh. Yeah. So my son, and I didn't even know this, he was telling me today, because we're going back to New Mexico, which is where my wife is from, and he said, you know, last time we were there,

we were riding that little horse, Pepito, and I go, yeah, no, I saw pictures. He goes, did you know it fell over? And I was like, while you were on it? He goes, twice! And I'm like, Jesus, so he just twice, this little pony like fell over. No, obviously my son's fine,

but just tipped him off the horse. Well, I could see Axel getting, maybe falling off the horse, but I don't think, if a horse falls down twice in one ride, that horse has to be looked at. Can I tell you something? I think that horse is D-E-A-D. Well, yeah, it sounds like it was going that way.

If you fell down twice, horses don't fall down. Yeah. So we're going to tell Axel. We're hoping they get, if he wants to go back, we're hoping they got at least a horse that looked like that horse. Ha ha ha. What are your kids?

Do your kids dictate at all? Is there anything? I mean, they're too young to say, I want to go here, but did they say they wanted to go to Disneyland? No, they like Disneyland. I mean, they like Santa Barbara. You're like, oh, when are we going to go to Santa Barbara again? They love it there. I don't know. They love the mission? They like that? The old mission up on the hill?

They like the beach, although the West Coast beaches I'm not into. But we've been going to Mexico a lot lately, just because it's the two hours on a plane. We love the hospitality down there. The Mexican culture is that of like, you know, how can we take care of you? How can we make this experience?? Great. Food's great. You know, in the United States, what I've noticed is you go on vacation in the United States and it's like the customer service and the hospitality is like an eye roll. You know, you get like a, Hey, can I get another iced tea?

like, hey, can I get another iced tea? You know? And it's like when you go to Mexico, they anticipate your needs before you even know what you want. You know what I'm saying? So I like that. I worked at the Four Seasons Hotel for seven years here in Los Angeles. So I really appreciate hospitality and anticipating the guest's needs. And when I see that, it's just, that's what I'm looking for on vacation. Hospitality.

Seven years at the Four Seasons. What was your first job there and what was your last job there? Did you sort of go up the ranks at all in seven years or was it the same? No, I stayed in the bar. I I was oh, that's basically a cocktail waitress. That's a good job. That's a good job though for yeah a performer It was great job from 98 to 2005 God, I saw so much come through that was the windows lounge. I don't know if you've ever been there it's on Doheny it was like the epicenter of Hollywood deals. And there was a breakfast.

It was called the Gardens Restaurant. That was where a lot of, you know, big moguls had their power meetings in the morning. And then at night, it was... It's where all the press junkets happened. So you got all the movie stars coming through there. So it felt less people on vacation and more just an epicenter of the Hollywood showbiz.

Oh, yeah. I don't think there's a lot of people on vacation there at the Four Seasons. It was very local. Yeah. And then when you left that job, was it because you had succeeded at the point that you didn't need to work in that restaurant anymore?

Yeah, so I was making a living doing stand-up at the point that you didn't need to work in that restaurant anymore? Yeah, so I was making a living doing stand-up at that point I was going to, you know, the Addison Improv making the $1,500 a week, hoping to get a bonus. You know, things like that. And did it, do you remember the moment that you actually went in and said, I'm not doing, I'm turning in my notice?

Well, I did the Vince Va I'm turning in my notice? Well, I did the Vince Vaughn Wild West Comedy Show, which was a 30 day tour with Vince Vaughn and three other comedians. So we did that and I still had my job. I actually had to go in and tell them, hey, listen, can I have 30 days off? I'm gonna go with Vince Vaughn on the road. And they're like, yeah, no problem.

Cause I had like seniority and I was really cool with the employer. So I said, I'll come back after 30 days and you know, after 30 days, I got a gig here, I got a gig there, so I kept the job for one year without going in. Wow. I was like a part-time guy. Yeah. So after a year, they, they call me and they say, listen, uh, your locker's still here. Are you, are you coming back?

Cause we, we need to know. And I said, uh, no, I think, um, they come. Okay. So it was a big moment for me because still, you know, uh, am I going to be getting more of these gigs or is this going to dry up soon? And I was a very responsible I'm not one of these like these

You know comedians or actors or musicians were like nah, I just you know I just sleep on people's couches and it's all about like I had health insurance As a comedian, you know same that'm saying? That you purchased on yourself. Yeah, I was on like a Cobra plan. Is that something that your parents drilled into you? Yeah, ours too. The amount our dad talked to us about a Cobra plan, I cannot stress.

And just like the necessity to have healthcare. Like no matter what, you gotta have it. My dad can really spin a yarn as to what a catastrophic injury will do to your savings. And to his. Yeah, it is. Yeah. Mom and dad lose the house

because you didn't have health insurance. Is that what you want? That's funny. So that's it. So yeah, I mean that is so funny. I feel like so many people are like, when do you think you made it? And I love that it was a full year after you made it that you finally let go of your locker at the Four Seasons. Yeah, but I didn't even think it was like making it at that point. For me it was more like I was now surviving on comedy,

and not surviving on being a waiter. So for me, it was like, all right, there's still a possibility that I might have to find another job. But I don't know, the confidence back then was a little shaky. Yeah. I think that's good though.

I mean, it's just being realistic about things is a very smart way to be. Even now, you know, it's like, you know, I don't know if you guys live this way, but it's like, even now it's like, you know, are people still gonna come to the show or people gonna watch the show or, you know, do I have, you know...

I guess that uncertainty is kind of what drives me to... be constantly working on this thing. I think it's very cool that you have held off on doing shows abroad in Europe, because I think you have an incredible, one, trip in you, and two, I feel like the fact that you have this body of work that has been available for people across the world to see, I think it's going to be really exciting when you find out the audience you have over there. I think it's going to be really cool.

I'm looking forward to international audiences and then parlaying that into a family experience, because, I mean, that's, for for me to take the kids and give them. Because I think travel, especially with kids, gives them a perspective that, you know, I didn't really have growing up, you know. They see different cultures, different food, how different people live. So I think travel as a family with kids,

not only locally and domestically, but internationally is definitely something that they could build upon in their adult life. Yeah. That's fantastic. You obviously, I do want to mention as well, season two of Bookie, it's really, it's been very cool to see you as an actor as well,

knowing you first as a standup. Has this been a fun show to make? Really, it's been very cool to see you as an actor as well, knowing you first as a standup. Has this been a fun show to make? Yes, it's been fun. I'm not like, this is how I look at acting. I can't wait to do standup. I can't wait. Acting, it's like, I like acting because I thought it would feed the comedy, the stand-up. Like, oh, more people see me do the acting, maybe they'll come see me.

It don't happen that way. A hundred percent doesn't. No. At least you found out by doing. But I like doing the show. Working with Chuck Lorre has been an amazing experience in the sense that this guy knows exactly what he wants.

And comedy is all about pacing. You know, like, you get the scene, okay, we're going on to the next. You know, like, there's a rhythm that we have there that I haven't really seen on any other set just because this guy's done north of a thousand episodes of TV. So it's not like he's sitting there going I don't know guys you want to do it again? There's none of that. There's like we got it let's go. So I

I like how he works and it's been really really fun the best experience I've ever had doing any type of acting. That's fantastic. That's great. Yeah. Thank you, by the way. It's just always lovely to talk to you and we really appreciate your time. Before you go, Josh is gonna ask you the questions we ask all of our guests.

All right, some quick hitters here. You can only pick one of these. Is your ideal vacation relaxing, adventurous, or educational? Relaxing. What is your favorite means of transportation? Airplane. If you could take a vacation with any family,

alive or dead, real or fictional, other than your own family, what family would you like to take a family vacation with? The Keatons from Family Ties. All right, yeah. First time we've heard that one, good one. If you had to be stranded on a desert island with one member of your family, who would it be?

My family, my wife. Great. Good answer, smart answer. Um, what is your, you're from Arlington Heights, Illinois? Would you recommend Arlington Heights as a vacation destination? No. Okay.

Great. And Seth has our final question. Sebastian, have you been to the Grand Canyon? No. Do you want to go? Not necessarily, no. I love it. Man, after Seth's own heart.

I'm really happy. And you know what I like that you thought about maybe trying to answer a different way and then you let your heart lead you. And I appreciated that. I went with my gut. Well thanks so much, man. Congratulations on everything.

Guys, hold on. I got a technical issue. How dare you? You know what? These are not the kind of callbacks I appreciate. Thank you so much, Sebastian. Thanks, guys. See you, buddy. It started long ago, Papa Maniscalco came over from Sicily. He was with his bro, they went to Chicago by way of Mississippi.

That's where they set up shop, grandfather and his pop They were kings of the salon And you could probably get a shave There was money to save Dad said vacation, bring it on Because his dad had envelopes of cash So everybody piled in the car Went through his mustache. A weak Max didn't go far. But that was just as well, because in Wisconsin Dells,

the hotel had a swimming pool.
