Starting point is 00:01:03 This is one of our more memorable podcast. It was done in our home studio in Los Angeles, California. Right here in this room. And the one and only Chevy Chase came out. Yeah, Chevin said, he's going to make fun of us. So let's just know going in. He is. We've learned since then he is.
Starting point is 00:01:22 People know this. We knew because we know him from S&L and a little bit off camera. He likes to say what you're not supposed to say. And I respect that. And it's a little Don Ricklesy. He just, he's a little older and he likes to just say shit and he wants to make you laugh and he wants to be liked. And some of it's very rough. And if you know it's coming, it's a little easier.
Starting point is 00:01:45 And we cracked up. And he's constantly holding his hands up as if to portends some sort of some, you know. And we had a, we have a bowl of or a plate of bottles of water. and then at some point he just does a full Chevy Chase. He goes to reach for the water and it all goes flying. So he's operating at all cylinders. And yeah, we got used to the roasty part of Chase. And so toward the end, you'll hear him say, well, I've had a much bigger career than you guys.
Starting point is 00:02:16 We both go, of course, of course. And he really smiled. So he's roasting this the whole time. But after the podcast, when the cameras weren't on or with the mics, he said, hey, thanks for being so nice to me. And his wife was there and his daughter. And he just had had that health issue with his heart. So there was, we saw it was very happy that we didn't like attack him or go back. You know, we just took a few hits.
Starting point is 00:02:41 And then we were just were laughing. Never get defensive because, yeah, he's, you know, but anyway, people have issues with them. There's a documentary out now. And so whatever. I've, I've had fine interactions with them and people have a problem. And you know what? We're probably going to have one again. We'd love to have him on again.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Yeah, he is still the Chevy Chase. I mean, he's an icon. Here he is, Chevy Chase. Where's Spade, showering now? He doesn't know. No, he's, he's bathing. He's bathing. I don't know what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:03:18 He's in there like this. David is missing all the best parts. Come on, David. I don't have all day. I've got another energy. He'll have it. He'll have it. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:03:31 I'm not going to quit on you. Oh, that's right. I don't want to ask. I love the way you type out your questions. Well, don't you do it like that? I can't do it linear because the bubbles. This was guest prep. Did you say death threat?
Starting point is 00:03:48 Death threat. He killed a man in Reno in 1977. That's the first line. The guy was named Skippy. Uh-oh. Skippy bloodthirst. Oh. Um,
Starting point is 00:04:01 Come on, Dave, we're doing a skippy thing. Sometimes he panics when we have a big star on the show. David? How about it? You won't bite. Skippy, dippy, dippy. You know about that, right?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Skip, oh, oh, I see what you're doing. Yes, yes, yes, yes. The old, um, the old taser run around the yard, try to survive trick, run into the bathroom and. It's a very good, Carson. By the way, you know, he's good for much. And you look, nothing.
Starting point is 00:04:30 like him. Who? Johnny? Oh, that's right. Johnny. Johnny. Did you know Johnny? I was on five times and then I got blacklisted. What did? I was doing it with Phil Hartman. I'm doing Johnny Carson. We were doing the basics, you know, for those you at home, you're watching a thing called a television and we're not actually in your living room. It was that kind of stuff. And then at one point, we did one where he didn't know that Susan Day was not still on the Partridge family. Oh, like I know either of those things. I know. It was like 10 years later. But then on the next Tonight show, because this Carson fanatic told me, he said, you see that Ed?
Starting point is 00:05:08 We're senile now, you know. So he would go down the hall yelling. It's time to go. They're making fun of me now. It's time to go. He did? Oh, that's according to Jane Lano. You know, yeah, some people go.
Starting point is 00:05:19 It doesn't matter. Fuck. You were on Carson. That's a good Jay. Well, you know, he just has all this wisdom. You know, yeah, you just do it. It doesn't matter. And so funny.
Starting point is 00:05:30 What the fuck Chase's Oh hi David Can we call you Chacey as like a nickname David Spade has joined the podcast Jeffey and I did a cute Do I mind if you blow your nose Dave
Starting point is 00:05:43 20 up front Is this mic about right Because they seem far away It's beautiful That's okay I'll just do this All right Nice to have seen you He'll throw out his lumbar
Starting point is 00:05:55 But we'll hear him Did you tell him I'll do cards in all days Lumbar is good Lumbar. Tell them on when you saw them at the... Oh, okay. So if you don't remember this, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:06:06 But there's a few funny... There's two funny or interesting stories about you and I, I got cast on SNL with auditioning. I go to Lawrence House in August. Are we taping? Yeah. We're always dating. We've been taping the last 20 minutes. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Oh, I'm sorry. Does that hurt? We're almost done. We can say whatever. Motherfucker. God, that little bitch. Okay. So 86.
Starting point is 00:06:27 I get cast on SNL. I'm not on the show yet. and I'm at Lorne's house in August. First one, we go to a Yankees game. I'm with you. Tyson is sitting away from us. You go, let's go meet the champ. And we walked through the audience, and they were just,
Starting point is 00:06:44 Chevy, going crazy. And then we met Tyson. And he goes, eh, Tammy, Jason. Oh, so now I'm doing Jay Leno. Fuck. Mike Lennel. They're both ashamed. They're kind of done, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Yeah, I know you, but I don't even know who that guy is. You know, but you introduced me to Mike Tyson. Yeah. That's all I got. Do you remember that? You don't have to. Let me just think. No.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Nope. Okay, here's my second one. I like this little goofy motherfucker. Only you witness this, Chevy. You, me and Lauren, Paul and Linda came over in August. And A. Whitney Brown, a comedian was there with us. McCartney, everybody. McCartney.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Oh, that guy. That guy. Paul. McCartney, I just want to see if you remember what Whitney said. So McCartney kind of sheepishly plays a song that is not out. He just recorded it. And he plays it for us and we're listening to his song. And then it ends and there's a pause.
Starting point is 00:07:34 And Whitney said, just like this, reminds me of Julian Lennon. And Paul never forgot it. Well, that's one of you. Julian. Julian Lennon. To say that to Paul. That's all I got.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Is there Kleenex or something in here? What is this? That's supposed to be the name of the thing. Would you like a Tick? It's supposed to be the name of the show, but it's like a lunchbox. No, why? Am I breathing? No, not at all. I just feel like you're good with props.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Here's the key to the cellar. There's a prop guy. There's a key. That's where I keep her. What's this one? Keys to the cellar where I keep the people. You know, I'm sorry. Look, there's no chance that you're going to speak.
Starting point is 00:08:21 This guy's an unfucking believable. I would plan that I would start it, but I'm going to be very quiet right now. No, no, no. All right. Now, which one of you is Dana? Let's just get that out of the right up front. I'm Chevy. You're David.
Starting point is 00:08:38 He's Dana. Chevy is a legendary comic. I don't use that lightly. Grew up on all these movies watching your whole time. Unbelievable. There was the... It said here you start the National Ampoon Radio. Is it what it's called the Radio Ar?
Starting point is 00:08:55 I didn't really even know... Radio, yes. It was called the Radio Ar. What was the Radio Ar? Radio hour. Radio hour. What is that? That's a tough one.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Ray hour? Look, we can get you a cocktail. Phil, it'll make you a server. I would mention Foster Brooks if our crowd wasn't five to seven year olds. So, let me think.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Foster Brooks. Remember Foster Brooks? Let's think back. Yeah. Yeah, that's why I don't, I try not to do those. Did he die? Or many of him alive?
Starting point is 00:09:26 What? He died of fake alcoholism. He was, well, Disney, they froze him and took his head and put it in a tomb. So that National Poon Radio Hour is that, because I didn't even know about that, but a lot of people came on to SNL from that. That was O'Donohue's thing. I mean, Michael, O'Donoghue.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Who wound up being a writer on SNO. Listen, the most incredible guy, really funny. He was just the best writer in the world. He's mentioned a lot on this podcast, but it's interesting. thing to hear you. Oh yeah, no, he was. In fact, he was a little bit fastidious. He had in his tiny office, you remember the offices? Oh, yeah. Just like college dorms. Excuse me. You fanning yourself? We could get the air down. I like it. Cool. I have rosacea. That's another. So he would have. That's nice. You'll see later. Oh, sure. Fuck me over. I'll have a pink flow.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Just because I have it. So you. No, wait, on this wall. On his cork board. it. He'd have ideas. Right. And he was very, as I say, in caps, each little thing he'd and I'd go in there when he, when he wasn't in there and just move those things just about an inch to the right. No, no. Doesn't like that. That sounds like. This is his College shenanigans. Yep. So you started as a writer, so you had Michael. Who else was writing with you when he first, you know?
Starting point is 00:11:05 Lauren. Lorne. Thank you. That's it. No. Well, you had. Well, dare I say Alan's Wyebel, who never wrote anything. What?
Starting point is 00:11:19 What? Danny. Danny, yeah. Oh, of course. And Al Franken and Tom Davis were there then in the beginning. Did you kind of put that writing staff together with Lauren kind of? No, I just did it. Not Lauren.
Starting point is 00:11:33 No. So Swibel did. All Warren did was pay me big. Well, you were in a, you were in this National Film Radio out with a couple of these guys. And so Lauren kind of went there to pluck some of those writers and performers off of that. It was radio sketches. what it was? What's the question?
Starting point is 00:11:51 What was the radio hour? Were you guys doing bits or what were you doing? Oh, yeah, very funny shit. And let's see, Billy Murray was on it. Yeah. And then, like, I think he killed somebody. And then... Right.
Starting point is 00:12:09 You know Billy Murray, don't you? Oh, yeah. He's an Irish... You wouldn't want to... Yeah, he's a tough guy. Yeah, he's... I saw him take somebody in... by their feet and slam them on the floor.
Starting point is 00:12:21 No, okay. Anyway. How did Martin Short take that? Right, exactly. He's wily too. I have to say I love him, but he's a strange fellow, Billy. You guys were magic together. We'll talk about that later.
Starting point is 00:12:37 That's right. And Cadetshire. I'm not a half a half way through. Yes. We do have cookies and milk and a little nap halfway through. Yeah, for David. Dane and I are getting up there. I'm getting a foot massage right now.
Starting point is 00:12:49 That's okay. I don't want anything to drink. They pluck you guys off. They put you on. You got... Oh, no. Oh, I'm sorry. Go ahead, David.
Starting point is 00:12:56 You got some great, uh... Sir. I got it. See? What have I done? Well, you're just always practicing your art. No, that was a good one, actually. You were that way when I met you in 86.
Starting point is 00:13:09 You would just do... I remember you trying to put a pizza box into a little garbage can. No one was watching. I go, he's doing Buster Keaton. You couldn't put it in. folded it, you looked around. I mean, it's really interesting. I was watching you work. Yeah, that you're just always practicing. Yes, I heard a story. Is this true when you met Goldie Hawn at Paramount? She had a crocheted handbag on. And when you walked in, you didn't say
Starting point is 00:13:36 hi, you just went up and put your hand under the bag and said, cough, please. Yes. That is true. That's something. Isn't that hilarious? Yeah. Oh, Janie's here. Jeffey's wife. I just had dinner with Goldie. That's right. Yeah, she just reminded. Isn't that funny? But I just said cough, not call, please. Yes, you know what, you're right.
Starting point is 00:13:55 See the difference? The timing. I'll just talk to him then. No, you know what, it's true. She said it was cough, and I added please to help the crowd at home. That's so nice. You know, you did it right, and I should not tweak it. 100%.
Starting point is 00:14:09 So when you first met Goldie, like you're going to do a movie with her, did you just know right away the chemistry? Fowl play was the first one, right? Is that first time you met her? Orkter. What was that? Let's roll a clip. We have editing capability.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Don't worry. Okay. And the question was, did you? He's backing up. I know you're kidding. I don't know. I'm interested in the people you met in the 70s that kind of just immediately impressed you. Obviously.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Well, she would. Yeah. Yeah, she was beautiful. Charming, funny. Charming. Funny? Yeah, funny. Sort of funny.
Starting point is 00:14:45 We just had dinner with it recently. Yeah. And she's... She's dead now. Was it because... Was she something she ate? No, she's a... She looks the same.
Starting point is 00:15:01 It's amazing. This is many years later, she looks great. And it seems great. She was the bubbly sort of airhead on Laughan, and then she became this big movie star and movie producer. And now she knows half the alphabet. I don't know, I'm either punching or everything you say, killing me. So you go do, what, foul play, which is already sick of it. No, no, I like it.
Starting point is 00:15:29 I love it. Janie, is this how, this people ask my wife, is he like this all the time? Yes. Okay. It's exhausting. I love it. Funny is funny. So enough about you.
Starting point is 00:15:43 What do you think of David and I don't know. What happened now? I don't know. I'm just... I'm just smelling my mic. Doesn't everybody do that? Yeah, go ahead. Well, here, you can...
Starting point is 00:15:54 I'll read you. He has perfect pitch. You can see... I made some notes. This is too much. All right. I can't read that. Who was more talented?
Starting point is 00:16:03 Dan Aykroyd or... Pick anybody. Bullion. No, Danny was the resident genius, as I like to say, of a... And when I say that, I think of Danny like holding a painting, just sitting like off to the stage right or something of the painting and talking about it. And really beautiful, you know, everything in it is great. Look at the rock and the way the trees are.
Starting point is 00:16:43 And there's a naked woman in the middle of it. And he never mentions. So he's, you know, like this and that. And you're just going, I mean, he's, I just, by the way, did a picture with him. But a few weeks ago, up in Canada, he's great. He's the best. There's something about him. He was naturally funny and doesn't try, you know.
Starting point is 00:17:10 He's just naturally funny. We had Phil Hartman, unlike yourself. It was sort of a double-langer. I try hard. I'm sorry what I said. I love it. We had Phil Harmon was kind of like that. He would get into the specs of an Everwood motor way more than show business and his plane and his boat and just a hobbyist like Dan.
Starting point is 00:17:28 I miss him, you know. He was great, Phil. Yeah. What did he die of? I forgot. It's a long story. We'll save that for part two. Bullets.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Yeah. Love. Well, yeah. Oh, boy. You're right. I forgot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Heaven's to Betsy.
Starting point is 00:17:48 That was a rough one. Heavenly. So, Danny's the genius. Michael's the best writer. Mm-hmm. And you're friends with Paul Simon. He's pretty good. Paul?

Starting point is 00:20:00 Scribble these down. This is crazy. This is crazy. He held his hat over his eyes and pretended that then David was revealed. What are you describing it? I think it's funny. I thought this should be being filmed. We're filming it and it's going to be a
Starting point is 00:20:12 Broadway show. Unfortunately, you're being played by John Hamm. On an Apple box. I think I know who that is. Somebody mentioned that we looked alike or something. Well, he just did Fletch. Fletch. He did a remake. Yeah. I'm ripping my notes into confetti,
Starting point is 00:20:30 but I will try a few more. Love spies like us. I'm just going to say things I like. You're just going to jump around. The buddy movies are unreal.

Starting point is 00:21:20 Unfortunately, now I can, you know, speak to Randy. See, I called Randy. I hadn't spoken to him in, what, 40 years or something. And I just couldn't, I wanted to call him. Yeah. Jevy, nice, you know. And I lied about that, you know, we're going to. to do another vacation.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Oh my God. He must have been. Yeah. What could I say? How did you... I called out of the blue and you haven't done shit, you know. Yeah. That's not right.

Starting point is 00:22:02 He's the president of Montana Freeman, I think. Oh, Donesday Peppers Farm. Hey, man. Okay. They're listening in. Next. Next. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:22:14 I want to talk about three amigos because Martin Short and Steve Martin and you were so likable. And when that movie, I told Lauren that, it's gotten shiny and brighter. He what? Yeah. Well, you know, it was a hit. But then and now it's like a cold thing. They don't make kind of funny movies anymore. Have you noticed that?
Starting point is 00:22:32 Just that was type of just funny. Yes. But what do you think of Martin Short? Is he talented or what do you think? So damn funny. He's maybe the funniest. He's up there. I know.
Starting point is 00:22:42 I know. Yeah. Is that some kind of... That's how big his dick. That's all I can say. Chevy holder. Well, it's three guys, different senses of humor, jammed in a movie. It's got to take some finessing to make it work.
Starting point is 00:22:56 It worked great. It was amazing. Remember your chapstick moment that was on the horse? Yeah. You made such... That was winged. Oh, for sure. You could tell.
Starting point is 00:23:05 For sure. Yeah. First there's what, Marty? have sand coming out of his mouth. Yes. He spits the sand. I don't know what Steve had. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:23:16 His water was gone or something. And then I'm there like. Yeah, you're showering. My horse? It's hideous. Yeah, it's great. Like a silent film. I love that scene.
Starting point is 00:23:30 But I think one of my favorite things is, do you have anything besides Mexico? good food. In the restaurant in Santa Polko where the fuck we were. Where were you? Where did you shoot it? In Mexico? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:23:51 Mexico. Arizona? Oh, in Mexico. No, New Mexico. Oh, thank God. Oh, there you are. Yeah. Only you would know that, sweetie.
Starting point is 00:23:59 My wife, Janey Chase. We're turning it into the interview with her. It's fun. We haven't had a clear answer. Who can speak truth of power about everything. I remember Lauren saying, I think it was John Landis. He was frustrated with the cut, and he always refers to comedians as the monkeys. It's great to shoot all the townspeople, but you should really spend some time on the monkeys.
Starting point is 00:24:21 And that was you three. But that's he says that to all of us. Oh, we're the monkeys. Here's something that Lauren said. Did Lauren ever say this to you, Chavvy? Because Lauren has a way of, like, taking big issues and making them. You said about funny people, and there's funny people. And he says, there's only 900 of us.
Starting point is 00:24:38 us on the planet. And it was like a perfect... 900. I know. It was such a funny, specific number that I kind of went. Did he figure it? Did he figure it out? There's three in Portugal. There's seven. Less in Russia. Ukraine has maybe a mime now because the president is a monkey. That's right. You mean a comedian? Right. Okay. Sorry. We love Lauren. I don't want to do any more. You're too funny. No. You're making me funny. because you're funny. He's unpleasant.
Starting point is 00:25:11 But you're funny. I know my place. Well, I'm going to write that down. You're funny. On a T-shirt. The Kakwan and... David's unpleasant. I'm going to ask normal questions.
Starting point is 00:25:29 Did you meet Lauren in line in a Monty Python movie? If so, which one? Good? I did. Would you suck your straw again that way? I know. I'm trying to get everyone worked up.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Because Chevy's not wearing any pants. Oh, shit. You're right. Was it Holy Grail? Yes. Yeah, it was. And I remember Lauren...
Starting point is 00:25:55 Can I cut in? Actually, I don't remember. I'm sorry. Did he cut in line? Did you plan that ahead of time or that happened live in real time? See, that's me. I remember Lauren. That's why you guys never got this far. No. We didn't. I looked at your 19.
Starting point is 00:26:13 hit movies in your Academy Award. I cannot argue that. We cannot argue your IMBD. Is that what they call it? You are legendary. And I told him when we came through the door that it was a human. Chevy has his face on the side of the mic. Chevy's doing a handstand.
Starting point is 00:26:36 I'm loving this. Hosted S&L eight times and had four vacation movies. Discussed. I did not host it eight times. You didn't fucking Wikipedia. Five? You're the five. No, I'll tell you why.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Okay. Because, Lauren. That prick. Warren, I needed to host it. I hadn't been seen much. And, you know, I was getting closer to death. Sure. And, um.
Starting point is 00:27:02 Are you alive? No. This is a hologram. I asked him, he said, Chebby, you've hosted it five times. Like that's enough Fuck you in your big mouth I mean what You know come on
Starting point is 00:27:17 I could have hosted at six Keep going yeah And you stalled out at five That was it And now you're in the five timers club Yep I've only hosted at three David two
Starting point is 00:27:28 Two there's no club for us Well that's five together If you do together We should come together That'll be the next schick Coming together On the 50th Chevy is a first ballot
Starting point is 00:27:38 Hall of Famer But I'm going to try to get some votes Like you start is you're all, you start with Dan Aykroyd. It means on SNL, they're just obviously right in the Hall of Fame of S&L, no matter what. We think it's sports. Do you like sports, Chevy? We think it's sports metaphor.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Do you like sports? Are you sports guys? Like what, you're my starting five-ups. Did you say spores? Spores. Jayney? I like spores. Maybe Janie should pull up a chair and just sort of.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Another way to put it. You want to get Janie down here? You're creating a sketch team for a television show. I would start with you at Update. and I would put Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray basically the whole first cast Yeah, it's hard to think. Well, he wasn't in the first Billy.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Billy who came a little later. He did like three years. I think he's from, he was in Chicago, killing people. Oh, he, right. Billy, because you're both six foot four. Lauren, we'd like someone as tall as Chevy and then they brought him Bill. You're both giants.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Yeah. Now, Gilda Radner, she's just a magic person on Kim. I know. Is she still around? that's all right it's okay come on it's pretty bad that's pretty bad no no I love to I've said things privately that would make here
Starting point is 00:28:50 apparently I'm not being private exactly this is going to where the microphone comes in this is our first live podcast it's all over Europe it's out everything's out there no anything could be cut so you can say anything yeah who are your favorite SNL people over the years I know probably this one Gilda for sure
Starting point is 00:29:07 Danny John even, and he's dead. Phil, it happens to the best of us. Yeah, that's what I mean. God, that was, not the worst thing in the world, John dying. Yeah, that's a tough one. Janie and I were in our house out here. Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:29 An earlier house. Mm-hmm. It was on the door. And, you know, you're not supposed to really actually get into the area because other people live here. Anyway, I opened the door and there's like eight journalists. Jevi, what do you think about John Dye? I mean, it was hideous.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Yeah. That's how you found out. I said, great, no. It literally just blew our minds here. On the other hand, it wasn't that surprising, given its proclivities. and may I say propensities. And now, pigtail. And peculiar pickadillos.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Picadillos. Piccadillos. Piccadillos. Yes. Well, we're a family on Saturday Live. We're all connected. Don't you wish. Not that I was looking, but what is your rank on the all-time, are you on the top?
Starting point is 00:30:36 five. Like Rolling Stone did something. Did you check your number? I think I was nine. I think I was 10. 10 right behind me? I think you no fucking away. This little prick. I'm going to write that down. Wait a minute. Was I dead. Janie, do we remember seeing this? We don't read. There were lots of polls. That was just, I remember Steve Martin saying they just throw it up against a wall. I think Yon winner was two. They also do polls with some people out of order so people argue about it. Okay. That's what I found in my travels. Oh yeah, I got a question for Chetty. You do this both of you, right? We do.
Starting point is 00:31:07 I keep thinking I have hair. You keep robbing it? Whoa. Wait a minute. It's starting to come in. I dropped my... You... No, this morning I was in the bathroom doing this.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I'm sorry, Jamie, this is what I do. Just balance it. That's not a bad idea. I had hair once, but now... Dude, you're a movie star. Well, that's what Jerry Seinfeld said to Lauren. He goes, I had hair when I needed it. like during the sitcom and then he lost it all
Starting point is 00:31:38 not lost it basically at 50 but as soon as when he's on the sitcom I had it when he needed it when you were you had it you had it I got it but what's he doing now Jerry Sintel counting his money yeah no no I he likes to do stand-up he he worked on a Pop-Tart bit for five years and now he's making it animated I'm not kidding I believe he is the most scientific and uh if he if you're a
Starting point is 00:32:04 around him and he hasn't done his hour alone in a room with his comedy notes, he starts getting anxious. Really? I've got to get to my notes. I hope he's not listening. It took him a while. Oh, he's brilliant. He's one of the best stand up.
Starting point is 00:32:18 He cracked the coat in a bit. Now he's one of the best. No, Jerry is one of the best. I saw him two weeks ago. We were at the improv and he came into the set, great wall to wall. He goes, I'm trying new stuff and didn't seem new. It's so good. He's, you know, he's, well said.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Yeah. We can take, don't worry, my parts will be cut out later. Sounds like Julian Lennon. No, this is a compliment. You were on the Tonight Show, huge star, and then you were, maybe you guess hosted. Would you ever want to have been the host of the Tonight Show after Johnny Left or no? Oh, no. Because they said that you were one of their favorite.
Starting point is 00:32:51 No, I think people wrote that. Let me just think of who wrote it. And then people like me read it. Truman Capote. I'm fucked. I can't remember. It was Truman Capote. Oh, NBC executive.
Starting point is 00:33:04 referred to you as the first potential successor. But it seems like you were doing so many movies you wouldn't want to do that. Like, of course. But that was a huge compliment to say you'd be the best to take over. I guess so. Who said it? I don't know. I'm just making shit up at this point.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Thank you very much, Ed. You are correct. Can you do Ed too? No. No, so not really. Phil Hartman, R. Dan Aykroyd did the best ad. He did. He did a good Edm.
Starting point is 00:33:32 He did a great ad. And every time he spoke, it was. It was funny. And Johnny just set him up. Oh, God. Because Johnny's references were not very current. Reminds me of the old pal-mell cigarettes. Old reference lost on Youngerville.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Pel-mell. Pal-mel. Reminds me the old pell-mell cigarettes. You just make that up now? Yeah. Do you like them? I like David. I like you, Chevy.
Starting point is 00:33:58 More than I like David at this point. We're trying to win you over, but we're running out of time. No, he's won me over. You hosted the Academy Awards twice. Yeah. A lot of work or fun? You all right? Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:34:14 No. I just heard your sciatica pop. The honest thing is, the honest thing is, it's fun. You know, you don't have to do shit, really. You just come out to everybody who has to like announce what the next thing and the screenplay and, you know, all that shit. They're all fucking crazy, scared. and that they won't get their lines right that are right there fucking right.
Starting point is 00:34:38 And for me, I don't have to have that. I just have to be me, as it were. I think the very first one they hosted, Jack Nicholson was sitting in the front row. And first... What'd you say? Uh-oh. As I can I say, the first thing I said was,
Starting point is 00:35:00 quiet down, Jack. just mindless then the camera's on him you know right well I think if you were having fun it's going to translate prior and I did it together that's great yeah and
Starting point is 00:35:17 he went out before me he said this was the first thing he said no black man has ever won anything anything. Now they had that famous sketch. Well, it was first year, famous sketch with you and Pryor. Oh, that one.
Starting point is 00:35:41 The job interview. That was, yeah. One of the best. Very adult. Yeah. We all know the sketch. We don't have to say anything else. Thanks a lot.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Tick face. Well, I said it was great. I think we can't talk about that. I'm going for because we have editing capabilities at all times. ticks on his face. Ticks on his face. No. Don't look at your watch, Chevy.
Starting point is 00:36:01 I thought he was coming around to say. No, you have three and a half more hours. I could tell a Richard Pryor's story, but I don't know if I want to take Chevy. Just from moving. Do. Do. I, okay, I'll say it as fast a second hand. I read for moving, by the way.
Starting point is 00:36:11 No. Yeah, before that, I was a waiter at the holiday end, and I waited on Richard Pryor because he was playing this theater. And I brought him a Denver omelette. And when I took it away, I was very nervous. He looked at me and said, whoever made that omelet can suck my dick. and I never knew if that was a positive or a negative you know, could have gone either way. Ten years later, I'm in a movie with Richard moving
Starting point is 00:36:36 and I had to know. So at lunchtime, I'm sitting next to Richard. I took a bite of a cheeseburger and I said, whoever made this cheeseburger can suck my dick. And he goes, you must lack that cheeseburger. Oh, boy. That was the Richard Pryor bit. I like it.
Starting point is 00:36:51 Yeah, there's a little math to it. I'm sorry that you should work on the voice to Richard. Well, I haven't done it in a while. It's a substitute voice for now. Hi, I'm Richard Pry. I remember Richard doing the show hosting first time. Mm-hmm. Like the second host, I think.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Maybe second show. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Thank you. Anyway. Aplaus for that's it. Accurate facts. What did you think when you first saw?
Starting point is 00:37:20 Wait, I'm trying to remember why I started that. Now, you just want to brag here. I have a little pain in my heart. That's all right. It's okay. He's on the floor. He's on the phone. Richard and the...
Starting point is 00:37:36 Oh, Janey, please. Okay, do you have it? Are you going to remember? Okay. Yeah. Just to, I should have told you guys this ahead of time. February last year, Chevy had heart failure. Cool.
Starting point is 00:37:49 And was on... Cool. Well, I'm channeling you now. I never noticed. Basically, the... He was rather out of it for a while. Oh. So he lost some memories.
Starting point is 00:38:02 They're kind of coming back. Okay. You know, things like when you ask. Why don't you share this with them in the radio world? It seems like your memory is pretty coming back at this point to me. Oh, yeah. But I'm sorry about heart failure. I'm here with David Spade and Dana Andrews.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Oh, right. Dean Andrews. I was named after him. Were you? Yeah. Oh, God. Oh, so Richard. Yes.
Starting point is 00:38:29 See? He's trying to. You got us back on track. Yeah, he's trying to compare white people and black people. You know, it's like a stand up. And he says, you know, white people get all like that if they see a snake. They get all frightened and jump away. Black people just go, snake.
Starting point is 00:38:53 It was great. Well, it's just his timing. Snake. Yeah. He's the, he's, he's, he's the best end up. Yeah. I think his Long Beach special was just phenomenal. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:39:06 David. Any favorite, uh, your friends of Norm? You were friends of Norm McDonald? Yeah. He's a good update guy. He was great, right? Oh, he's just great, yeah. Yeah, he does great show.
Starting point is 00:39:17 I thought he did it, yeah. I didn't think anybody else did it very well, but I thought he did brilliant. Yeah, he pushed it pretty fun. He just went right for the dirt. Yeah, he went for the jugular every time, which... No, there weren't any... It's like I did it because I was interested in politics. I read the New York Times.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Not him. He just goes and just throws up like a dirty word in there or something that's... Wow. Fuck my goddamn nail. Yeah. He did a lot of that OJ stuff. You have a classic... Oh.
Starting point is 00:39:50 It was always some turn by Norm. But he probably was influenced by... by you as far as being dangerous or being edgy or? I don't think so. I don't know. Well, after you doing update, that's not the one to beat, but it's like that's so good. You go, how do I do it where I don't look so pale in comparison? Well, it was the first one.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yeah. So people do compare that. Yeah. But, you know, really? It's the best by far. Thank you. Yeah. Was that our best question?
Starting point is 00:40:21 I'll tell you a quick joke I heard from Norm on. Good. Norm is always fun. This Norm joke where he goes, my wife, first of all he's not married. My wife was in a coma. I'm waiting in the waiting room. Is it a coma?
Starting point is 00:40:34 This is Norm's fake joke wife. I like your good audience in a coma. Well, you did say coma, didn't. Yeah. So the wife's in a coma. The doctor says, Norm goes, anything I can do? And he goes, well, we found an unorthodox way.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Some way to get her awake, oral sex might help. And he goes, oh, yeah. And he goes, well, if you're, want to and he goes yeah i'll do it so he goes in there and he comes out and he goes duck it's been five minutes and she's choking yeah that's norm that's norm that's norm i think he told that like conan everyone's like hey you know that guy conan just uh okay okay
Starting point is 00:41:15 is that the red-headed guy yes he's very he's very ginger and he's very tall you yeah he is tall you right Hi, Conan. How are you? Oh, you're shorter than you? No. I have no idea. Look at Dana and I are fighting it out down here at five. Sorry, my wife's with you. Divorce me.
Starting point is 00:41:38 She's like, I did. You forgot. Flying the wall is taking a turn for... This is very interesting. She's taking a turn. Janie, his wife, and now he are engaging in friendly, romantic banter. I got a real question. Did you ever write a script? You're very funny guy.
Starting point is 00:42:01 Did you ever just write a whole one? No. Okay. I wrote many beginnings and stuff, you know, and thoughts. I got a lot. I wrote every day, but I just couldn't bring myself to writing a whole script. You probably punch up a lot on the set, though, or add jokes. That's probably...
Starting point is 00:42:19 What did you say? I said you probably punch up when you're on a set. Dana, I'm sorry. When you're filming on the set, you probably improvise them. a lot, punch up stuff a lot. They probably give you the script ahead of time like Fletch and you go, not that, I'll do this. That's what I'm assuming.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Okay. Yeah. Good assumption. You might be a genius. I'm not the... I don't think so. It's possible, though. I know I'm not.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Yeah. How long of a shoot was, how long was catty shack? Everyone's favorite movie from growing up. How long was it? How long take you guys? How long was it? Three or four weeks? What the time?
Starting point is 00:42:52 When you shot it? Yeah. When you shot it. Oh. Because I was going to say, about an hour right here. have one. You know what's funny. How long was Caddyshack?
Starting point is 00:43:02 Thank you, Dave. No, what is the running time of Fletch? These are my questions. He was a chess champion. He's into numbers. This guy was, he was an actual state chess champion. Is that true? I was, but the smartness has gone away.
Starting point is 00:43:17 King de Pons Night 4, whatever it is. What do the Ponds do? The Pond. That's a great question. That's like David and I here right now. Okay. Excellent. Can I give you a compliment or as a question?
Starting point is 00:43:32 Are you kidding? Yes. Can't wait. I cannot wait. I always tell people about, because I was watching Caddyshack. And so you and Billy Murray are doing a thing where you're golfing, I think going through the thing. Bill Murray is in his gopher guy. He's got the funny mouth.
Starting point is 00:43:48 He's got the overtly funny character, right? You play it so Buster Keat. Your face is so straight that. You more than hold your own in that scene. And I always go, because I'm always out there dancing and mugging and pushing, you just went nothing and created this incredible comedic dance with Bill Murray. Now you talk. Go.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Go. Who? Chevy is wiping a tear? No, but do people mention that scene in your style of silent film comedy when you want to do it? Well, we did wing it. By the way. And it was in Bill's caddy. Jack.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Yeah. Oh, that one, yeah. When we first shot, first shot, when we were ready to go, Bill had put on the wall there, like eight pictures of naked women, like their legs spread, you know, from a hustler or something. And, you know, Landis had to say, I don't, no, I don't think so. And so Bill just collected them all just one underneath, you know, one of, I don't know, girl. like this or something, maybe like this. Anyway, so we start going and we're going to,
Starting point is 00:45:07 and he's just trying to get me the whole time to crack me up. And he goes, you have a pool, don't you? You know. We have a pool and a pond. Pond would be good for you. And if you look at this film, he never cracks, right in that one even just a little bit you know just a teeny bit i'm gonna look at that tonight i love it you'll see it were they were it was that like kind of a uh tracking shot how how long would
Starting point is 00:45:39 they let you guys go before they'd yell cut did they just follow you it seemed very spontaneous uh i think the uh it couldn't have been just one shot they had to cover yeah so i think it's it was cut but they're smart to keep that because that's probably maybe on a wide shot or maybe years side and then they just go that we got to keep that one in there yeah yeah that's great wow because what's your name again i'm ds david spate s andl uh 90 to 96 on instagram what's your handle okay that's chevy give him one more we we won't beat him up too bad um well i'll just do what about dream role i i've got your dream role did you ever aspire did you get to do something dramatic and try to get an academy award oh absolutely okay
Starting point is 00:46:27 I don't read the papers. You know, they don't give them for comedy. They do not. And apparently, I'm not going to do any more movies, so my chance. It's fucked. I'd like to get an Academy Award. Right. Because I can put it there with my Emmys.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Yes. Do you have Emmys? All awards are good. Oh, yeah, you got Emmys the first year. I have three Emmys. Whoops. One for writing. And another one for writing.
Starting point is 00:46:57 writing and an acting one Yes Is that all SNL first year? Yeah Yeah By the way, the only year I was on Yeah What are you and Janie

Starting point is 00:47:45 Thriller album by Michael Yeah What a dork Finally On. But Breaking Bad was brilliant. That's cool. My wife can't watch.
Starting point is 00:48:03 That was, she didn't like, she likes kind of more gentle ones. I like, he and I don't always like the same things. Right. So it's great to have my brother there. Mm-hmm. To bridge the gap. Because I can have sex with him too. No.

Starting point is 00:49:05 It was very good. I thought it was very funny. Yes. I like, wasn't there a character in Downton Abbey? This is very chevy. A character called masturbates. There was, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:49:14 And then as you go, masturbates. There was. I'm sorry. Masturbates. Oh, that's so funny. He disappears in his room. That is fucking hilarious. It's all like.
Starting point is 00:49:26 God. I don't deal in puns very, that's my best point. No, but his character was Master Bates, right? Yeah. You can't make that up. Yeah. Five. Well, it was Mr. Bates, but they said like, Oh, there you are. Masturbates goes into his room and makes the most unusual sounds.
Starting point is 00:49:45 His other weener's shrinking. He's making. What's this one? I don't know. I'm just going to try and make you fun. Anything. All right, any what we've learned today, Dana? We've learned that Chevy Chase is still the funniest guy in the world. Very funny.
Starting point is 00:50:01 You have more questions, don't you? Well, I have, yeah, let's do a few more. Sometimes I like to put people when they're young, like 10 years old, movie or TV show that blew your mind around that age, you know, that like kind of, maybe I could be on TV someday. Do you mind if I shit on your chair? Okay, that wasn't. That's how good the question.
Starting point is 00:50:22 That's top five answers on the board. Tom Hanks answered it. How about you? Did you have a bicycle? Tom Hanks, he's got two Oscars. I know. That's what I mean. Oh, sure. Tell them that. Chevy, you might have been watching Roy Rogers or Rintin. No, no.
Starting point is 00:50:40 The actual answer is Shane. Do you remember that? The movie Shane. No, the comic book. Well, I thought it was a TV show question. But go ahead. Shane blew your mind then as a kid. You see it in the theater?
Starting point is 00:50:53 I did. I went with my dad. Okay. And you were like six, seven. That's all right. We all do. During the previews. Kaylee. Kaylee, finally. Is the cat okay?

Starting point is 00:51:22 It was an intense movie. Good find, yeah. Yeah. Jack Palance was the bad guy. Who is the star? He was very... Jack. He was vertically challenged, broad shoulders like a gymnast, famous movie star.
Starting point is 00:51:40 Look him up. I can't believe I'm spacing on. Heather, look him up. No, he's so famous. He was the star of Shane. S-J-I-N. Kidding, honey. Jack Palance.

Starting point is 00:52:35 Doesn't get enough attention, Jonathan Winters, and he was great. I'll say. My dad used to talk about him all the time and made me watch it. I had a hematoma in my leg from hitting it on a table, and I was in a lot of pain. This will come around. It's coming around. I'm waiting. So I'm playing at theater in Santa Barbara.
Starting point is 00:52:52 I'm really in pain. It's a thousand-seat theater, and the stage hand goes, hey, kid, Jonathan Winters is out there tonight. So the whole time it was in my head, like, this is not as good as Jonathan Winners. Yeah, he did an hour backstage. It was just hysterical. He did?
Starting point is 00:53:09 Yeah, he's like, you know, all the voices and everything. What the hell was that? You know, you were, you know, John. Your impression, John? Yeah, yeah. Well, we're going in deep. He did one of these kind of things. We're going to get you crushed the wall.
Starting point is 00:53:26 He did all his little voices like Robin Williams kind of. I should be interviewing you. Well, this, I do podcast this for myself as well. Do you mind if I like this? It's called Chevy Times. Did you ever meet Farley in the old days? Chris Farley? Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:53:41 I did. And Lauren had asked me to talk to him about the drug issue. Chevy, if you could talk. Really? Chris might help. Might not, but might. I like your, Lauren. It's kind of quiet.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Will you do a little Lorne first? It's that thing of like if you could talk to Chris, you know, about drugs. It might be like a really good thing. I love his. So I did talk to him. And how to go? Well, he didn't have enough drugs for both of us. So, no.
Starting point is 00:54:18 See, that's a classic. he's been landing all day for me they're hitting for me they're hitting once you get into his comic frequency it's like it's just fun our Greg is laughing very hard
Starting point is 00:54:35 you wish you'd stayed longer at S&L I kind of wish I did a couple more seasons oh Christ I feel like I'm here longer than S&M you never set up a kid You can, we can adjourn any time. Actually, I do, I do, thank you. Yes.
