Gilbert and Frank's Colossal Obsessions!
Hi, this is Gilbert Gottfried and I'm here with my co-host Frank Santopadre and this
is Gilbert and Frank's Amazing Colossal Obsessions and we're joined by the harmonica playing
blues black southern black, Paul Raybone.
It's the first time he's introduced you.
What a doodah.
And by the wrong name.
Yeah.
Some obsessions.
I am gonna be deaf by the time this show wraps.
I'm gonna turn into Johnny Ray
because you're screaming in my ear.
Oh God.
I love you.
200 episodes, kids. Wow. What do you think? And and I know it's you're lucky you can talk at all 200 in the can and I lost track of the
number of mini episodes, you know, I
Heard that from Marlon Brando alone
Richard Pryor got 200 in the can
According to Quincy Jones Marlon Brando gave it to
Richard Pryor 200 times in the can. For the record, I delivered mini episode 157 today.
157? Well, thank you for that. So what are we going to do when we get to the 200th mini?
Oh my God. That's nothing to worry about for the time being. I think we should get three midget guests.
What?
Wow.
So 157 minis and 200 full episodes.
Not counting the four or five full episodes that are recorded.
It's like a thousand episodes.
Yeah, it's a thousand.
Yeah, that's good math.
We decided to do something nice
We decided to reach out to our listeners on the listener society. Yeah, I know you never go there in all
Goes there all the time all I don't know about we're gonna do something all Raybone You're gonna do something nice for our listeners because they're so good to us and Paul while we're doing this
Can you find out what ballplayer the Babe Ruth story was about?
If you could look that up. I just need some time. He doesn't even have his phone. He wasn't even told to do research on this one.
So the people who run the listener's society, Eric Fusco and Rob Smentech.
Oh and where did the play Oklahoma take place?
Oh, and where did the play Oklahoma take place? One at a time, come on.
And Peter Santamaria and
Bjorn, we want to thank them for all they do on
The Listener Society. We're always doing Twitter episodes and we never give The Listener Society
its due, and there's 5,000 people there, or some odd number, and we decided
for the 200th episode we would post and say ask any question about the 200 shows that
you want and the winner will get an orange wedge pin so we have not decided
yet who the best questioner is but we will soon so there are lots and lots and
lots of questions here in my hand so let's get through as many as we can in
30 minutes okay Darren Ashley Bokes do you guys go out for dinner with
the guests after the show when they're in the studio? Have we done that?
Oh, I do remember... Yes, we had dinner with... With Chevy. We had... You had dinner with
Chevy. We had... I wasn't there. There was a notable occurrence that night at dinner.
Yes, yes.
Chevy all of a sudden started choking.
Yes.
At the table.
And it looked like his face turned red, he couldn't breathe.
And I, you know, quick thinking, I figured maybe I'll stand up.
I'm not gonna hold on to him
because I can't really give him the height.
My arms can't reach around him.
You're considerably shorter than he is.
Yes, and so maybe I'll, my idea was to stand up
just to make me feel like I was helping.
Heroic. Yes.
Yeah, I got it.
And like when, if people watched it, they go hey, do you see how quickly Gilbert stood up?
And then afterwards when he was breathing again, he said yeah, thanks for having my back Gilbert
I heard I was at the next table and I actually have found audio of
Your heroics and his response to it. Should I play it for you?
Okay.
Why am I so turned on right now?
You are brilliant.
Come here, I will fuck you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is a success.
He was gonna be really happy.
He was that grateful for saving his life
that afterwards he fucked me.
Fantastic. Yes, yes. That's going to be a recurring
button. We did lunch with Steve Buscemi after his episode and we lunched with Bob Costas.
Oh yes. And then Paul Williams took us to lunch at Michael's. Oh that's right. Which
was sweet. So yes, we have on occasion. Have we ever, now the Chevy thing was scary enough,
but 200 episodes in, have we ever actually killed a guest?
Have we been responsible for the death of a guest?
Only by booking them.
We've killed the rest of their careers.
Darren also wants to know, do you ever start recording with a guest and think this is going
terribly?
All the time.
Every show?
Yes.
Mostly because we're terrible.
Yes.
Not the guest.
Aaron Carruthers, why?
But the funny thing there is we're constantly surprised.
We'll have guests, some that we enjoy, a lot others we feel we had to work harder with,
and we're always surprised who becomes a big hit guest.
Oh, absolutely.
Yeah.
There's no way to tell.
Yeah.
There's these people where I thought, oh, that was perfectly entertaining.
And then I get these tweets and emails.
We love that guy.
We think we leave the booth saying, well, it was a nice complimentary episode.
Exactly.
And then it blows up.
Yeah.
Well, you think, oh, that was pleasant enough.
Yeah. Or a it blows up. Yeah, well you think, ah, that was pleasant enough.
Or a guest surprises us, we thought it was going to go one way and you get somebody like
Sonny Fox coming in with his POW stories.
My god.
What about Super Dave?
Didn't you think he was much funnier than we thought?
Well, I think we expected that.
But yes, Sonny Fox, I was expecting like basically a kid say the darndest things kind of
he really brought it he moved us my god Aaron Carothers why didn't you ask
tippy headroom about the movie roar I believe we did I think so that was the
that was the crazy movie where she had the line all the lions were killing
people I'm a kid turned cinematographers head off that after after that episode oh my god we couldn't get through the whole thing it was just awful.
That is the most terrifying it's it's the real Jaws somebody described it as like Jaws the documentary.
Exactly and you know you just felt like saying hey excuse me those those aren't pets.
That is if our listeners have not seen Roar, I guess it's on YouTube.
It's somewhere.
And worth watching about 15 or 20 minutes of before you have to turn away.
Yeah, and the cinematographer, one of the lions took the top of his head off and he
had something like 80 stitches or to put his head back on and Melanie Griffith was attacked
at one point.
They're nice to look at in a nature special
But that's as close as you want to be to a lot
Yeah
Well the favorite my favorite part of the tippy headroom episode was when she invited us to her preserve and you said you'll be
waiting in the car
Rob Bollock wants to know or bollock who's the chicken hawk? I'm kidding
Only Richard you have to take that up with yeah
The Henry Kaplan then follows that up by saying my money's on Will Gere
I don't know. That's a good guess wasn't him. Yeah, but maybe of that era. Yeah. Oh, yes
Yes, um, this is from Dane Jarreau or Gerard Yeah, it wasn't him. Yeah, but maybe of that era. Yeah. Oh, yes. Yes
This is from Dane Jarreau or Jarrar-aud
Has Gilbert ever been contacted by angry relatives or the fans over one of his more controversial celebrity stories?
No, but your lawyer can call a following number
Lordy lord. Of all the, this is from Kevin Mason, of all the impressions and songs that Gilbert has
performed on the podcast, which ones had Frank Santopadre laughing the most?
That's easy.
Well, it's either her, it's either Herve Villaches, which I eat up with a spoon and egg you on.
But refer back, it's on Stitcher now.
You'd have to go to Stitcher to get it. is the Steve Cox episode when you did the Jerry Lewis.
Oh my god.
On the glass table and Dara loved that moment because I went, we used to record in Gilbert's
house then and I ended up in the fetal position on the kitchen floor.
Yes.
Sobbing, sobbing into my hands and into a dish towel. It was, so check that one, check
the Jerry Lewis and the last 15 minutes of the Steve
Cox show.
Yes.
That was special.
Because we were having an argument over who actually got
shit on and who just got shit while they were under a table.
Yes, it was finer points.
Sarah Ryan wants to know, is there another live show with a guest in the future?
We hope so.
We hope so.
Oh yeah.
It's scheduling.
It's always a scheduling dependent.
Randy Bucknopf, who's the guy that brought us,
Sonny Fox, I might add, says,
just for fun, I put orange slices on my Caesar salad.
I wanted you guys to know that.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Oh, we appreciate that. Did it taste like Caesar
or Mara's ass? Kevin Mason again, will we ever get a live reading of Gilbert's Adventures
of Superboy comic? There's an idea. Oh wow. You could live reading like an old radio show.
Wow or like um what's it Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia.
Oh, Fiorello LaGuardia reading the comics.
Yeah, the newspapers were on strike and LaGuardia would go on the radio and read the comics
to the kids.
There's an idea.
Yeah.
There's an idea.
And he was a Jew.
Absolutely.
That's right.
Fiorello LaGuardia.
A portion of him was a Jew.
Let's see.
You really can't tell from the names.
Suzy Healy wants to know, does Gilbert do any prep for the show?
I think his laugh and Frank's cue will answer that question for you.
Let's see, let's see, let's see.
Chris Hankinson, Frank being a writer who are some of your favorite television or film
writers who inspired you.
Quickly, that's a long list, but quickly I'll name two comedy writers that we've had on
this show who I grew up watching.
Alan Zweibel on Saturday Night Live, a terrific terrific funny writer and Bob Einstein the great great Bob
Einstein and for screenwriting that's a very very long answer, but I'll say William Goldman and the granddaddy of oh
and and
Paul Caffaro, you know I I hired Dalton Trumbo for her problem child. Did you?
To get him off the blacklist?
Yes, yes.
Yes.
Ha ha ha.
It was a lot of courage on my part.
Wow.
Ha ha ha.
Wow.
Ha ha ha.
There have been many, many moments in Hollywood history
where Gilbert has taken a stand.
You think you know a guy.
Yeah.
Ha ha ha.
Paul Kofaro.
And John Garfield played Mr. Healy.
I didn't realize.
And Paul Robeson was the little boy.
No kidding.
Yeah, yeah.
Very versatile.
I got all of them off the bat.
What range?
Who was Herschel Bernardi playing?
These are now blacklist references just for us.
We will return to Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal podcast after this.
And now back to the show.
Paul Cofaro, a new running question for the guest needs to be, but did you fuck Margaret
Dumont?
There you go.
There's a suggestion.
Somebody wants to add that.
Uh, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Here's a tough one for you, Gil.
Reed Hawkins. After the documentary Gilbert, podcast guests have mentioned how much they enjoyed the doc
and Dara being Gilbert's savior.
Has Gilbert ever wondered what an alternate universe would look like?
His life without Dara.
Oh, that's interesting. That would make a good movie.
Or Twilight Zone episode? Oh, yes. Yes. And would make a good movie. Or a Twilight Zone episode?
Oh, yes.
Yes.
And for Dara a fantasy.
I'm assuming Sandra Bullock would star in it.
Sandra Bullock?
Ah, yes.
Yes.
And what would you say in it?
You are brilliant. Come here. I will fuck you. Yeah.
I think we've got a hit!
Let's see, I'm crossing these out as I go.
Ed Marcus wants to know, has there been a thawing out between Shecky and Gilbert?
Oh, that would be good.
And by the way, my father walked out on Gilbert's show at the Neveli.
I'm sure he wasn't alone. Thank let's see Andrew LaPosha or LaPosha I
apologize if I'm mangling any of these
names if Gilbert was to get roasted this
is a great question who would be on his
dream dais? Oh Jeez
You gotta have Jeff Ross you gotta have a yes. Yes, of course and and and and
skeleton connects
Frank Ferguson Ferguson's good
Come on Arty Lang would be on it.
Yeah.
Oh, Artie Lang wouldn't show up.
Artie Lang wouldn't show up.
Yeah.
Doris Butler.
Doris Butler?
Yeah.
All right.
We gave you one name.
Ed Marcus again.
Is there a prize piece of Hollywood memorabilia or a holy grail that Gilbert would love to
obtain?
It's funny.
Just recently I did Anthony show his podcast.
Formerly of...
Oh, Kumiya.
Yeah.
And when I got there, they said, oh, you know, you'll have some fun with Artie. And the first thing I hear when I sit down is Anthony saying,
oh, Artie couldn't make some records.
And I thought, boy, I'm in shock.
Of course.
Ted Herman, wait a minute, I jumped one.
What was the one you were just asking?
Let me go back to that one.
This is Ed Marcus again.
Is there a prize piece of Hollywood memorabilia or a holy grail that Gilbert would love to obtain?
So many. A friend of mine was cleaning out Chico's daughter's apartment.
Maxine.
Yeah. And he said he opened the closet and found a couple of Harpo's wigs.
Wow. And and a few of Chico's pointed hat.
What did he do with these treasures?
Well, he it it took all the strength he had, but he did turn it over to the family.
Wow. Because that to me is like the sled from Citizen Kane.
Yeah. Yeah.
It would definitely-
There's a rumor for years that Spielberg had that, but there were probably several made.
Oh yeah.
You know, who knows if these things are authenticated.
Ted Herman with two R's and two N's, like Edward Herman.
They say comedians always want to play Hamlet.
I know Burl always wanted to.
That's true.
Gilbert, have you ever done or wanted to do a serious dramatic role? To be or not
to be, whether it is noblest to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous
fortune or to take arms against the sea of trouble and by opposing end them, to sleep perchance to dream.
Ah, there's the rub!
That was beautiful!
Unbelievable!
Wow!
Wow!
I feel like I'm sitting next to Sir Ralph Richardson.
And while we're at it, he thwarts my losses and thwarts my gains and for what reason for
I am a Jew hath not a Jew eyes ears feelings dimensions are we not warmed and cooled by
the same summer and winter?
Very good. Oh my God. Impressed? Impressed. What are you doing? not warmed and cooled by the same summer and winter?
Very good.
Impressed? Impressed.
What are you doing?
Why did it take 200 episodes to get to Shakespeare?
Why are you doing a podcast?
And well, I always say,
why am I doing a podcast with the current co-host I have?
That's, but it's basically the same.
It's a similar question.
It's just semantics.
Now is the winter of our discontent.
Oh, that's right.
You made George Takei do that Shylock.
Oh, yes.
This question you're going to love.
This one's really out there.
This is from Andrew Bavington.
The three stooges, fuck, marry, kill. You want to tackle that?
Oh, that's a tough one.
Well, I would.
I'd fuck Vernon 10.
OK, yes.
Not really a stooge, but I'll allow it.
I'd and I'd marry Emil Sitka.
OK.
And kill Joe Dorita?
That was kind of a layup, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Hey buddy boy.
He's still the original Curly, you know, knock knock knock and woo woo woo and all these
weird, you know, fun things. And then along comes Curly Joe Dorita,
and all he brings to it is,
hey, buddy boy.
And you go, oh, okay.
It's kind of like hiring a guy and go,
hey, what kind of catchphrases do you have?
Well, I have one.
I think I'll wear my blue shirt today.
They went pretty deep into the bench
Kevin Watsi of the 200 guests what percentage had Gil never heard of prior to them being on
Usually it's you and I getting a ball
It's abused by the listeners is there a theme in what seems to be a theme it's a news Gilbert
They're all winners in my book. Yeah, I send them all pins. I'll remember when Steve Buscemi
Said to me have you ever seen any of my boobies?
I'll tell you exactly what he said
First of all, you you dishonor him again by mispronouncing his name now. It's Buscemi Buscemi
Yes, and he said he said I love how Gilbert has only a passing knowledge of my career
That's a nice cringe-worthy episode
Lovely guy the funny thing about that episode we went to lunch with him at the Friars Club
We recorded at the Friars Club
We went down to the dining room and the lunch
was better than the episode. Oh, much better. He sang cartoon songs. We did themes. It was
just great. He was relaxed. You were relaxed. It's so funny because that's that thing of
like where you go, oh, we got to do an interview now. And then when we were having lunch with them, we forgot
About doing an interview and just had fun. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well somebody somebody said the last time we did this
I think that the uh, or maybe you send me an email
That they thought the mini episodes were kind of fun because they were more laid-back
We get those emails people like the people like the short episodes because they're looser and sillier and less formal
Yeah, and less of an interview
Barry goobler or Galbler has Gilbert ever walked out of a movie if so, which one when you were in I would think
You walk out of funky monkey, oh god, I never saw any of Funky Monkey.
Right, or Back by Midnight.
Oh yeah, never saw Back by Midnight.
Did you walk out of The Comedian? Did you want to walk out of The Comedian?
Oh no, but I had a copy of it and I had my thumb on the fast forward button through 75% of it.
I went to see the Gilbert movie at the IFC Theater,
and Gilbert was right behind me,
and at some point I turned around and he was no longer there.
That's scary.
That counts as a walkout.
That's scary.
You were, I have to say, sitting next to you,
I was, I had Lewis Black next to me on one side,
and you on the other, which was very strange,
at your screening.
And you were uncomfortable watching yourself.
Oh, yeah.
I still can't get used to seeing myself up there.
Is it easier to watch yourself in a performance
than it was to watch yourself in a...
Like I always say, if I'm Joe the Plumber, then I'm fine.
Right.
But Gilbert is Gilbert.
It's horrible.
When you saw it for the first time here in the studio,
you were, it's the first time I've ever seen you go like five minutes without saying a
word. Oh yeah. You were really kind of shell shocked. Yeah, yeah that threw me. Here's
a good one. Let's see, this is from our pal Gene Beretta. Gene's a very good friend of
the podcast. And he has a parrot on his shoulder.
He does.
Don't do the time if you can't do the crime if you can't do the time.
Jeanne is the guy that did that wonderful drawing of the kids throwing the orange wedges
that's in your living room.
And it turned up in the documentary.
Jeanne wants to know if there was a biopic on Gilbert, who would he choose to play him?
Well, they're in negotiations with Zac Efron.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, cause he's, but it's so obvious.
I would thought you would go for Yaffa Cotto.
Yeah!
Cause he's a Jew.
And if he can't do it, Delroy Lindo.
Delroy Lindo?
Yes!
The first time that Delroy Lindo has been mentioned on this podcast.
We should get Delroy Lindo on the podcast. He's an interesting an interesting guy. Yeah, that's a thought. That's a thought
And what is being Reims doing nothing he's doing voiceovers commercials
Yeah, he does those. Oh, what the hell are they they're fast food commercials?
Barley Marie Barley Marie any chance of Marlo Thomas or Cheryl Ladd co-guesting?
Probably not. Let's see, did Gilbert Gras, we did that one. Fred Jenkins, I dragged my whole family
to the StuGium after the Billy West episode. You know about the StuGium?
The StuGium is apparently a museum of three Stooges.
Oh, I thought it was a museum for StuGilliam.
It's for StuGilliam, also a great reference.
Stu's gone or we would ask him to do the show.
Oh yeah.
Where is the StuGium?
It's somewhere in rural Pennsylvania.
I think not far from our pal Drew Friedman's house.
Nobody actually knows where it is. He wants to know have you been?
No! And would you consider a remote recording from the StuGEM?
Live at the StuGEM!
I can't even get him to go to I can't even get him to go downtown to do a live show.
We're gonna go to rural Pennsylvania.
Matthew Bradley Churgy, or Churgy, T-S-C-H. What do the G.G.A.P.
hosts drink to wet their whistle during recordings? You have a little glass of vino every now
and then.
Yeah, when they have a free bottle.
When there's a free bottle here. When Frank is nice enough to go crack open a free bottle.
Yeah, they used to have free bottles of wine here.
But they got wise to you.
Yeah.
Usually just high C is what we drink.
Yeah.
Tang.
In honor of the Osmonds.
Yeah, in honor of the astronauts, I drink tang.
Laura Pinto, along the StuGEM question lines,
she's a friend of the podcast too and helped us with Ron Dante.
Thanks so much for the opportunity to submit a question.
Is there any chance you and Gilbert and Paul would ever take the GGACP on the road?
And by this I mean, would you consider traveling to different cities around the country and
recording?
Would we do something like that?
Well, who is located in these different cities?
Well, you know, fans have offered to put us up. Yeah. I think we should just stay. That's
a scary thought. I think the three of us should go on the road and stay overnight in someone's
garage. If a fan offers to put you up, you don't want to stay with that fan. No.
I found a recording of when Gilbert did stay at a fan's house and he tried to take some
of the lotions and shampoos
Oh really? Yeah, sure
They were trying to get it back. I can't tell
Yes
That's really wow. I didn't even recognize that one
Michael Stite Michael Stite
Michael oh, I just remembered something
after one of my shows in the middle of wherever uh
after the show a guy came up to me and
proudly rolled up his sleeve and he had a
tattoo of Irvey Villages.
Oh that is just wrong.
So it's basically a tattoo of Tattoo.
So that was, and yeah, he had a tattoo of Urvey Villages.
That's just wrong for so many reasons.
If he invites you to stay with him, you don't want to stay with him.
No, he wasn't one of the people in Offer.
And you could practically hear Irvay Villaches say,
I want the money and the pussy that Tom Selle gets.
I should get that much pussy.
That's one of my favorites. To answer the previous question, Michael Stite or Michael
Sight, did any of the guests make you fear for your life? And if so, how close were you
to calling the cops on Busey?
Oh, yeah.
The only reason I didn't fear for my life is I was long distance. I was in New York.
Yeah, he was definitely one of those where you think it could happen any second.
Yeah, yeah.
It would have been great for the listener, so.
What a strange cat.
If someone had lost their life.
Mark Roman.
This is not from your interviews, but I'll throw this out there.
Gilbert was on a Fox show that aired once in the 90s called The Frackey Awards.
It aired next to a John Lovett special.
John's only special.
It was on a Sunday sandwich next to the Ben Stiller show.
Does Gilbert have any recollection of this show
or what it was about?
None whatsoever.
Okay.
But it sounds bad enough that I would agree to do it.
It does sound like something
that you would have agreed to do.
Let's go out on this one.
Or maybe I'll lie.
And do this one.
Um, hmmm.
Okay. Um.
Tom Selle gets blowjabbed!
I should get blowjabbed!
Thanks for the filler.
Thanks for the filler.
This is a good one.
Henry Kaplan, speaking of legendary stories,
can Frank and Gilbert tell the famous Shecky flaming monkey
Vegas story?
I don't know the flaming monkey Vegas story.
Do you know the flaming monkey Vegas story?
I think Diane Cannon knows that one.
Really?
You guys are surprised that sounds like that's right up your alley.
Frank, say, do you have a tape of when the flaming, uh, shaky green monkey broke into Diane Cannon's house? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Are there any questions you that's that's a name you don't want to say three times
And his brother Mike oh yes
James M hunt are there any questions you asked that you wish you hadn't asked a guest all
The fucking time you think of one no. Oh I off the top of your head. I
Remember one question. Yeah, it was almost name almost, almost coming out of my mouth. And because I was so certain and and I was going to ask Tippy Hedren, you know, what was it like playing the mother in Carrie? And then you realized.
And then I realized, oh, ooh, that.
It was Piper Laurie.
Yeah, yeah, Siren went off in my head.
And it was like, you know.
It changed course real fast.
Somewhat less embarrassing than when
I slipped the card across the table telling you not
to call Greg Evig and Glenn.
Yes, yes, that was the best one. When you had to slip me a card to tell me don't call a guest by
his by a wrong name. Call him by his actual name. That would have toniff. This is the last one.
We're past our cutoff point, so we'll do this quickly.
Try to do this quickly.
Ed Marcus, could Gilbert please tell the story of how he pissed off Abe Hirschfeld on the
Howard Stern Show?
Oh, that's one they'd have to listen to.
Yeah.
Okay.
It was comedy genius.
He wants you to know.
Okay, so we'll direct you to that and you'll have to find that.
This was fun. Yeah. This was fun.
Yeah.
