Nagle told me that there were 15 callers before we came into this room. What happened? Now, I want you to know, before this started, we were having a discussion on should we have previous guests call in, and we said, no, that's going to take up too much time. It'll take away from the best.

There'll be a deluge of callers calling him to the show. And, um... Why don't we do this then? I feel like I'm on a fundraise. Why don't we go out in the street? We're gonna go out in the street? Yeah, we'll go out in the street and beg. Hey Steve, why don't we take some questions from the nice people in the room

we're not all the time all right so help us out here nice folks people in the room fans of the podcast we feel so supported don't you feel supported yes all these people in the room and i it doesn't bother me at all that not one human being in this country or Australia is calling. It might be a technical issue. Let's start with this gentleman right here. Brendan?

Maybe what's the most irritated you've been with Gilbert during an episode? This moment. Do you know the episode that required the most edits? I'll bet you can guess. Ben Darin knows. Oh wait, there were a few. In a hundred episodes, who do you think went farthest off the rails? Ooh. Any guesses? Yeah, oh god.

That is correct. Which? Frank Ferdorosa. Gary Busey episode. Oh, oh, oh yes. Which would come as a shock to a lot of people. That Gary Busey. Gary, the average episode, thank you Don, the average episode requires anywhere between 5 to 10 edits.

So you know, there'll be audio problems. Gilbert will say something that Darrow will call me and say, please save him from himself and take that out of the show. But Gary Busey was something like 29 edits because he was just... My favorite part of that show, by the way, was I was on... That was the first one we did where Gilbert was live in the room in LA. And I was sick in New York. I was on the phone. And Gary Busey said, I don't know you, but you sound like a little girl wearing a child's wig. And I don't know what that means to this day.

We have someone on the line. Oh my God. Do you know this name? Oh wait. Gino Salomon. Oh yes. Is on the line. Gino, are you there?

Oh well this is going well. Hello? Gino? Oh yes. Hi fellas. Hi buddy, Gino's calling from Milwaukee How did I know that? You are unbelievable. Yeah, that's me. I want to tell you how this podcast has ruined my life. Go ahead You're on the air buddy

Okay, I understand late at night. If I've had a rough day, I will go to YouTube and look at old Jack Frost Will explain what that is that's a lot of hope video and we don't know i talked about this one but we're here the end of the block is voice was really high yeah it it like to bob hope used to be a lot and i a m and that that when he became all there i've been in frail it was like and

and i think that now should be turned around line yeah i i'm just gonna take a moment to tell anybody that doesn't know that isn't familiar with what you're talking about you have to go to you to ban look at this bob hope special it was one of the last ones when bob was using it right it was like

you would you'll swear when you watch it that bob hope had already been dead for ten years at least west is jack frost and yeah with a little stringy white bank here in elf costume and a pointed hat. And icicles dangling off of his face and eyebrows. Truly painful. You could see he doesn't know his own name. And what, the only idea I have of watching this, Dolores, his wife Dolores is in it, and I think this was her revenge for all the times he fucked

around on her. That was it? That was her plot to put him in a Jack Frost book, Justin. I turned him on national television. You gotta see it. Gino, what else, buddy? Okay, one more thing too. I've known Gilbert many years.

I never knew how much he loved to sing and larry ragland a comedian i'd never heard of the dummy in the window okay jeno will let it look like a lot of people are thank you buddy do you think requests told on the way okay and you know you have to win this one okay you don't know dumb in the winter what what i give us some content what kind of a musician are you

that explain them in the wind i've got the they were used to be this comedian around the clubs i'd name larry raglan he used to sing this on stage and it went a little something like this. Today I thought I saw a dummy in a window. I looked and it was you Wearing a new dress as usual Trying to look your best, impossible Cause with you it's not really what you wear.

Why don't you wash your face? It's a disgrace. Today, we're... All right. I just put that behind me. Thank you, Jane O'Sullivan. Thank you. Thank you.

Long time caller, first time listener. Okay. One in every crowd. What's up, Rich? Well, I was listening to the Pat for the last week and i have to wonder the better paramedic standing on by i have a little bit and you're at the moment some kind of a little

what have you got for us and time i had a little question about laughing would like to hear that laughing laughing question go about that i hear me go on to recall many popular things came out of the sketches in laugh-in. Who comes to judge? That was one of the phrases. That was a better popular phrase, true or false? Yes, it was Pigmeat Markham.

Yes, and originally they would have Sammy Davis Jr. jr correct doing that in the powder wig and then they actually found big meat mark that's correct and had him on yeah but it they there's something so wonderfully racist about the pension price going and he would go he'd come to june thank you and so on that was fun we talked to vincent prices daughter by the way

No, thank you very much. Now my question is this. You talk about all the older shows and movies you like, is there anything in the past 10 or 15 years that's really wowed you? Like recently you talked about detective shows, well today detective shows have their individual episodes but then they also have an overarching season long story arc. Do you follow any shows like that and what do you think about that kind of uh... format you know what's going on now i know i can't follow like

they're only shows that are popular now and i have where i haven't seen one episode of uh... and you were that is a badge of honor discussion that i'm totally uninformed i'd i sort of like the first season of true detective not everybody did my wife and i liked it but does that does that uh... that was that okay and there was that girl

i'll i'll bring this to mister skin yes yes well this mister skin is in the audience in the pride one of our previous guests yet she i i saw that clip that was good what what was easier that question of the caesar america

he was he was on that fast thank you michael thanks for your question and thanks for listening all the way to pan i read and i recommend it to people all the time we appreciate that and what i'm saying and then they say all walk in no more than anyone in america i took a moment to go through a hundred episodes this week

ten lists of the this might get away from me and list some of the songs of the partial yet some of the songs that you've favored us with. Well, I wasn't really ready, but... This is a partial list. The Lord of the Flatbush theme, the Cinderella Liberty theme, which you sang to Paul Williams. That's a household hit. Bang the Drum Slowly, this is one of my favorites. The music from the movie Zapped with Scott Baio. Yes. Thank you. You sang the Rainbow Connection and the Phantom of the Paradise theme to Paul Williams.

Oh, yes. You sang the Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean theme to a reluctant Bobby Slayton. You sang the Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and Town Without Pity with Paul Schaeffer. You sang the theme from Foul Play to a very stunned Chevy Chase. Dummy in the Window we already talked about. You did theme songs from F Troop, Car 54, Thick of the Night, Underdog with Bob Costas. Oh yes. That was a highlight.

Roger Ramjet, Captain Nice, and the 430 movie. The Bert Packerack. To name a few. was a highlight roger ramjet captain nice and the four thirty movie the bird backer rack uh... to name a few and you tried to sing walk away with uh... renee with michael mckee and i'd have a look i'd i'd i think he was intimidated i think that you're in place and of course the highlight of a hundred episodes the musical highlight your duets with dick vandike all my god put on a happy face and supercalifragilistic yeah i'd take van

dyke and i a t saying to do it together that was great that that was that was an amazing a career highlights for you hot yeah that when but when you consider my career that's not saying that the level of that that

if we have time we'll come back and sing one of the getting book that decals in long island is that career highlight and cap anyway that's just a partial list of some of gilbert's uh... some of the tunes that he's warbled on the show well all these people are calling and we are

i think it was um... that guy whose name i still can't pronounce. Greg Evigan. Yes. Yeah. You almost called him Glenn Evigan. Yes. I was about to say, well, thank you, and Frank saw the shape my mouth was taking.

So he wrote down Greg on on a paper and he had worked with this uh... uh... david ponder pomeranzia who had written to at least two of the songs from sat did we stop you with that one joe you got this list that the songs from sat there not your repertoire your regular repertoire and a little bit of the paradise the Paradise? Okay. Okay. Oh, uh, let's see. Okay.

Or Rainbow Connection? Oh! Well, let's do the Rainbow Connection. In honor of one of our... Do you have, uh, uh, uh, Nice To Be Around? That one I don't have. Cinderella Liberty. Fuck!

What use are you? Why don't you do a little bit of Rainbow Connection? Okay. Why are there so many songs about rainbows? It's volumes. Songs about rainbows and what's on the other side. Rainbows are visions, but only illusions. Rainbows have nothing to hide. So many people refuse to believe it I know they're wrong, wait and see

Someday we'll find it The rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers and me beautiful all of them for the job and i think that all of us it's a beautiful thing do we have another no and all that that reminds me gina told me now he and he are

he met top-down Williams recently yes and paul but he's head which should be on my tombstone he said you know gilbert could be a very inappropriate uh...

i urge you to go back and listen to the Paul Williams episode and you'll know right away what he's referring to. I did, I did on the Paul Williams episode, I did a bit that I had done way before I met Paul Williams, which was Paul Williams fucking Shirley Temple I did it on live with Kelly Ripper And and it went something like this it was like oh oh, oh, oh Shirley, your pussy feels so good. Oh, thank you, sub to Dick and me, Mr. Williams. That's beautiful. Yes.

It's too bad that show, the Copycats, isn't around anymore. You'd be perfect for it. See, a lot of people originally thought it came from rich little yeah but that was not i don't think paul's gonna get over that trauma anytime soon since from that episode all we need i sang the duet ought nice to be around the school in the role that was also a movie worth

checking out uh... marshall mason james con do we have a lie while you are all it do we have a from chicago mystery right i get i got very good and they gave copycat i i want to have gilbert about is that it's in the people of the at the now all uh... season

uh... he had a quick which is a bad i want to ask gilbert all what do you consider to be at the worst episode from that season and why out that's a tough one that was in my head in nineteen eighty nineteen seventy nine day and i think a t a one one eighty eighty one that was off

horrible time to be on the show and are horrible season and well i remember a few things I remember I I hated the writers the writers hated me so one time they wrote a funeral sketch where I was the body in the coffin and there was another episode you talk about why you got gotta be careful with these premises uh... they had david caradine on the show

and they had written a bunch of things and then they got the uh... brainstorm that he had done that show uh... kung fu in the seventies yeah and then yeah i don't know he's one of those characters who wanders from village to village now getting involved in the people's lives so they said

wouldn't it be funny if he's back character throughout the whole show and he just wanders in to bits and when we were filming it by the first bit by the first second he shows up everybody was thinking

oh fuck this was a bad idea that's the only s and l theme show i can yeah i can think of yet where they had one idea that they were not through my all idea yeah and uh... this you know i'm not going like those bids this sketches on s and l

where it starts off and you know this one's gonna suck now i'd not that uh... you know like multiply like and now i'd now back uh... you know like multiply by ten sketches it was harlis a fun video actually if you are a with you in the the original cast any

dylan and rock and eddie murphy with with bill murray and i think we've given everybody the pep talk and he leans over and gives you a little rub a little lucky rub on the head and you've got that you've got the fro all yet very strange. Very strange to see. And I remember that's the one like Paul Schaefer has said to me several times, you know, you know, Harry Sheeran, Harry Sheeran hates you.

He just telling he hates you and it's cause on the show in that bit He yeah, it's supposed to be bill Murray's giving us a pep talk and firstly says introduce yourselves So like Charlie rocket comes on says well, I'm Charlie rocket I'm kind of like Chevy chase and Joe Piscopo says I'm Joe Piscopo. I'm kind of like Chevy Chase and Joe Piscopo says I'm Joe Piscopo I'm kind of like Dan Aykroyd and and I said I'm Gilbert Godfrey I'm kind of a mixture of John Belushi and that other guy who used to do imitations who nobody remembers. And Harry Shearer identified himself.

But Michael McKean said if Harry Shearer hates you, you're in very, very good company. And not exclusive company either. Dave, thanks so much for the call and the question, buddy. Thank you very much do we want to do a couple of questions in the room does anybody have anything we have to look for neglecting the room the trustee steve is here with a roaming mike this gentleman john introduce you john john floaty artists that's it was our

are we any closer to getting a hold of Papillon Susu? You know, I don't know. Have you tried to call her? I think we tracked her down to London. Should we explain the whole Papillon Susu thing? Papillon Susu was the girl in full metal jacket who goes, me so horny!

Okay, definitive answer now. Yeah. Uh-oh. Monsters or Adams family?

Me, Monsters. Yeah. Oh, that's a tough one. Yeah, I never got into the Adams family. I don't know why. I mean, I was always aware that John Ashton was just doing a Groucho imitation.

uh... he was a character and i have that type much taller than you'd think all very tall very tall guy and um... he for some reason he accepted like all western style with the ball of time and then the cowboy and i was and like the snap clothes shirts and he would have that smelly cigar and yeah

i only met him once when he had the italian restaurant bleaker street grandpa and i was in film school and i had a screenplay sitting on the table.

Will is with us. Hello? Will, let it rip. We're running out of time. Okay, I wanted to ask about Gilbert opening for Belinda Carlisle in the 80s. I heard there was some of a transcript for it. Yeah that was one where I was going to open for Belinda Carlisle I think it was in Long Beach and the her manager said to me ahead of time like keep it clean which and I'm the person to hire, if you want to hold some family fun.

Keep it clean because there's a lot of little girls and their mothers in the audience. And I tried for about a good five or six minutes to work clean and was bombing horribly. And then I basically went into every conch out i could think of yeah the record that's that that's the one carlisle story yes

yeah and and they called me up that night my agent called up and gave me dot clarence sickle line well i i'd just want to know everyone on the tour loves you. That's like showbiz for you've been fired. Once they've gone, it's like a girl telling you, I think you're a really great guy. You know, that's when you know you're not getting laid.

Speaking of being fired, do you want to quickly tell the story about how you knew you were a goner at SNL? This was great. Joe knows this one. I was, it's like they had already fired Gene Damanian, who was the producer, and Dick Ebersole came in and he said, I'm going to be making a few changes here and there I want all of you to take a couple of days off come back and I'll tell you what changes will make and then each one one by one was waiting outside Dick Ebersole's dress at his office and while I was waiting there was a table where they used to keep the fan letters they would just dumped in there and I picked up a fan letter from a girl from like Idaho
