We're talking about Benjamin Franklin. Was he a good father? Was he a bad father? He probably was a bad father because he didn't even go back for his wife's funeral because he was in France, banged dudes. We're having a population problem right now in the West because women want to have lives. That's what it is. Stop that. That's what it is. And that's why I'm welcoming Islam. Me too. Because they don't allow the women to have lives. Inshallah.

We're not going to do any type of that kind of material. We're not going to do it. It's so tempting. It's hard to resist. It's like a chocolate schoon. We're not going to do it. Today we're going to talk about the history of the rat pack, Sammy Davis Jr. Frank Sinatra. No Muslims there. No Muslims, although they probably did make fun of Sammy Davis Jr. A lot. Yes, they did. They actually would make tons of jokes back then. I watched one clip where Dean Martin says, how does it feel sitting at the back of the bus? What it is? Yeah, I mean, Cuzz, make no mistake, Sammy Davis Jr.

sounded like a black Jew. He's like a Maristodemeyer. He did sound like a black Jew, and, I mean, man, it must have taken a lot of time to do his hair. His hair is gorgeous. He had to straighten his hair like my wife every morning. There was a girl who, one of my friends banged a black girl in college, and he said he went down on her, and she had styled pubes. And they used to call her Sammy Davis Jr. Last 14.

That was her name in college. I said that. They used to call her SDJ, Sammy Davis. Jr. If you went to my college, you know who you all. Can you imagine going over Sammy Davis Jr.'s house and there's just hair rollers at the sink like my wife and towels? My wife always leaves her hair roller or whatever it is, a blow dryer

on my side of the bathroom. Yeah, it's what it is. And that would have been Savvy Davis Jr.'s bathroom. Him and his wife had to do their hair at the same time. It's what it is. Now, the rat pack, this was an interesting one to learn about. And I'm going to be completely honest with you. I learned all about the history of the FDNY. because I got our text chain mixed up, and that is actually, the FDNY is actually the episode we're going to be doing for our live history hyenas podcast, which was yesterday by the time you heard this.

That's right. Wednesday, November 12th, Crown Hill Theater, Brooklyn. So I did not learn about the rap pack. The only thing I know about the rap pack is my grandpa used to listen to it and used to listen to that, and Connie Francis. Now, when you say your grandfather used to listen to it, what is it at, was it at your mother's home or his other home? No, it was at, well, no, not.

Not that grandfather. Oh, okay. This is my step grandfather who came in and was my actual grandfather, but he used to listen to the rat pack a lot. And it was, we would drive through Williamsburg and he would be blasting some type of Frank Sinatra song. Not actively trying to get out of the way of crossing Hasidic Jews. Right. He wouldn't, he would not hit them, but he wouldn't necessarily slow down the car. Yeah.

I think when we were kids, the older generation used to play a game called a Hasidic Frogger. Yeah. I actually think that's how Frogger got invented was just guys trying to just get through Jews. Yeah. They're always in the street and they're always got strollers. Yeah. There's just babies hanging off those things like spiders. It's just what it is.

Yeah. Yeah. You ever look at the belly of a spider? It's got like a million or a crab. Yeah. So all these babels hanging on. It just reminds me a acidic juice. Now, yeah.

They're out reproducing us because our ladies want careers. Ladies, get back into the bedroom in the kitchen. Yeah. You're a baby machine. Yeah. Loud of 14. I agree. I think that this is the main problem.

But because I got to be honest with you. I got to be honest with you. Today, I wasn't feeling cute. But then I saw you walking. And you, because you are dressed like a string bean and I like it. I'm in all green today and I got fall colors. Now, you look like you're fighting in a cute war. Now, I don't know what you said to me.

as soon as I saw you you said I have to get I have to clean up my leaves yeah yeah I was talking to you about the leaves because it's fall here in the northeast and I have a lot of leads I was talking to a guy who's been up since 4.30 the morning who had to do a little required reading I had to do a little required reading

I'm in the program and on the so I had to do a little required reading because I have to get up at 4.30 in the morning if I want to exercise if I want to read I have to do it and it's also good for me to go downstairs in the kitchen alone and be the first one there in the pitch black dark and turn the lights on, that's a big thing for me because I wasn't able to do that. Usually I would have to do my reading and my workouts. I would do it in the bedroom because at least I knew Jasmine was nearby. It's called

exposure therapy. That's what it is. It's called if you have a little fear, it's exposure therapy. Now, I watched Black Phone 2 in the basement by myself last night. Now, that's just something you're not at the level that you can achieve yet. Yeah. I watched Black Phone as well. It's called The Wire. Last one, Because we're talking about the rat pack today Yeah, we're talking about the rat pack Yeah, it was four whites and a black

And I gotta be honest with you Some of you on Patreon We love patreon.com slash history How many times is pack It'll come in and out of here I'm recording it's called it Pat's a rat What are you doing, Pat? What are you doing?

Either fix your shoulder or get the fuck out of here Yeah Well, guys, I adjusted the camera one time and then I forgot my memory card in here. Just a Hannah Bermaner's calling. I'm sorry, guys. Yeah. What does Paige DeSorpos smell like?

On the Patreon, I'm going to tell the fans who Pat at Sackland. Actually, what does she smell like? Yeah. She smells like the most beautiful flower bed and, like, the Wizard of Oz. And, like, then you feel like you're high on opiates. Yeah, that's what it is. I want to, I want a sticker inside Jeff Goldblum's ass. Way some gene.

Oh, what romantic. Yeah. Now, Huss, do you want to do the Rat Pack as Pat Mulroney and Sean Terry so we could combine the FDNY and the rap pack? No, I mean, what do you want to do? I think, well, what I want to do is cancel the live show. I don't want to do it. We have a live show coming up. In two days that we have no idea what we're doing.

We're going to do the FDNY. We're going to do the history of the FDNY and we've got to drive all the way to Brooklyn. We're going to come out in fire hats. We're going to come out in a surprise, surprise costume. Do you want to get fucking? blasted before the show like a couple of FDNY guys on a day off yeah I want to get absolutely wrecked I really do want to get absolutely hammered on Wednesday at the crown hill theater in brook and I want to get and I want to fist fight a fan let's do that we do it that's happening at skankfest

Yeah, you just You have to watch for the power dynamic It's got to be equal playing field Cause now speaking of equal Playing fields The New York Giants suck The New York Giants really do suck They can't get it together

They can't get it together Jackson DART is a hottie with a body Who's got a concussion The Jets are were even worse But now the Giants are worse than the Jets Yeah, the Giants just are not the Giants right now. They're the Squeaks. They are the New Yorker.

It's go weakie-weekies. They're squeaks. Talking to Squeaks, Sammy Davis Jr., I mean, he's a kid you could really toss it to a bullseye. A kid was 5, 6. He used to wear lifts. Yeah, he wore lifts. Is there anything funnier than a guy that wears lifts? Yeah, no.

And the kid is from Harlem. He's from Harlem. And did you know that Prince used to wear high heels? And then eventually his hips started to go just like a German Shepherd. because he was dancing in his heels. Yeah, it's just what it is. Men are not supposed to wear heels. Although you threw them on and made a career.

I did do that. You threw them on and had to get the Chinese food. Yeah, I just said, it's what it was. It's what your friends made you do. They made you put out a football helmet and high heels and get the Chinese food. It's called growing up in Ridgewood. It's called being the sensitive one amongst a group of friends who are not sensitive. They pick on the sensitive.

Now, speaking of sensitive, what do you think of these puppies? These are kithis. Are they cute or are they rude? No, those are cute, and it means that you woke up and you're in a de-s mood today. Well, it also means that I woke up at 4.30 and I tried on seven different pairs of shoes. Yeah, but it also means that you're feeling decent about your weight today. I feel decent about my weight, although I did have a bad eating weekend. My mom had me come over. Yesterday she made a little nostalgic meal for me. She made me my chicken cutlets that I put Italian dressing on. So my mom got me Ken's Italian season dressing.

You know, it's that Italian dressing bottle And she made her chicken cullet She made macaroni and cheese And then she got me a piece of pie from Rudy's Just be honest Because the first time you went to Carbone You asked if they had steakums on the menu No, I don't, I gotta be honest

I'm gonna be 100% honest with you Every single restaurant I go into I always see if they got chicken cups Because I like my maz chicken cutlet Even though she makes them in the microwave Yeah now she would get home late Sometimes she would have to just Open up the box of stovers

And give you the French bread pizza It's just what it is That's what it is And that's why I think They're like Sometimes I'm just in the mood For an Ilios pizza Like you could put me

Next to Lucali's Which is the best pizza In the world And if I'm in the mood for Elios Then I'm just gonna go To the 99 cent store Or the bodega on the corner And just heat up a little

Eelios pizza Now sometimes if your mom Was running late from work Did you ever sneak down The neutrals And go get some Arroscompoio Sometimes I would So there's I get a little

Arroscompoio or my aunt Would always like to make a nice ham She liked ham I would always have ham going. She had a ham and saltine crackers. Yeah. So let's talk about the rack pack today. It's a very interesting time in history where there was almost like two Americas happening at the same time, right?

The youth, they were putting on tie-dye. They were going like a mom-dami. Right. And then you had the older generation more classic, more martini, more Vegas, more buttoned up. Right. More ballots, right? Guys singing. And this was a time where guys would sing and still be men.

Yeah. And they were doing it classy, and they were going Trump 2024. So you have, let's just say who the rap pack was. You had Frank Sinatra, the most famous one, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr. And then who are the other guys? Joey Bishop, who I don't know. He's not as well known. He was a comic.

Yeah, he's not as well known. And then, of course, you had, this is your DEI hire was Peter Laufford. He was the DEI hired because he didn't have a lot of talent. He was just an actor but Frankie liked him because he married to Kennedy and he, Frankie was just in Frankie was...

No, but wasn't Sammy Davis Jr. The DEI hire? Isn't DEI for about quality? No, well, I'm making a joke because Sammy Davis Jr. actually had fucking loads of talent. Oh, right. Yeah, so Peter Laughford was the

you know, the DEI hire. You would make fun of it. I thought DEI meant you just get hired because it's not white. It's true, but I was saying talent, yeah, they were doing that but the joke is with DEI the standard gets lower because people are just getting hired because they're feeling quotas.

Okay. So you're right. My analogy wasn't perfect because there was a black guy present. And you got confused. It's just what it was. So that's just, you got to just break it down for me. Yeah, I broke it down for you. Actually, Sammy Davis Jr., he was one of the main guys.

Right. I mean, he had so much loads of talents and the kids converted to Judaism. He did convert to Judaism, right? He did. He was like, you know what? Why not? Why not? He was like, let me try everything.

The kid only had one eye. He did have one eye. He had a glass eye in, and he still knew how to step dance. Yeah. And what I... Wow, I never even realized the kid just had one eye. He had one eye. Yeah.

These kids got banged up. Frankie Sinatra was in a plane crash. Dean Martin's son died in a plane crash. What's, Sammy Davis Jr., was in a car crash and lost his eye? These kids were ever checking on their cholesterol and blood pressure? No, these kids did not. And this is why we live in this era now where it's like, did you listen to Huberman's last? He says you're supposed to have saffron.

Did you listen to this celebrity guy who's the psychologist? He says antidepressants aren't that good. All you got to do is saffron. Oh, you got to take your D3 with your K2. Oh, my God. Alcohol's bad. Oh, my God. Don't forget to debrief.

Oh, my God. Don't forget to take your A1 shake. These guys fucking woke up at 12. Bang hookers raw. And they ate meat. And they drank martinis until they dropped and make no mistake. The two main guys made it till they're fucking 80. Because you think it goes back to what I'm telling you

when I saw those old guys eating the muffin in Salt Lake City that was sitting around chowling down on muffets and they said they don't stress out about it. My generation stresses out about everything but they're able to live and eat muffets because they're not stressing. But these kids didn't stress. There's no other way to explain it

because Dean Martin, I mean, dude, he drank liquor like it was water. All the time. All the time. And he lived, I think, till 79. I think Frankie made it to 84 or something like that. Yeah. Sammy Davis went a little younger because he got,

the smoking cigarettes got him, he got throat cancer. Yeah. I think Joey Bishop dropped and Peter Lofford dropped because Peter Lofford. He dropped early. I think it was in the 50s or 50s or something. He dropped in December of 1984 the same year I was born. So it is sad that I only got to share the planet for four months with Joe,

with Peter Lofford. Now Peter Lofford was British, so I think he was, you know. Guys just looked older. I mean, that guy on the left looks like he's in his mid-90s, but he was in, he was like 55. They did look older back then, yeah. And, you know, he was, Frank was, so it started, the rap pack started. Tell me how it started. Yeah, back then, so I said the two Americas, so you got to think about there.

It was like, you know, it's just happening in like late 50s and then all through the 60s. The 60s was the golden era. America's golden years are the 50s, 60s and 70s. Yeah. We're number one big. Yeah, but in the 60s, like all the kids are starting to, you know, we're tired. eye, do drugs, counterculture, and Frankie Snotra and Dean Martin are just calling him filthy pigs, calling him dirt and rats.

Good. Yeah, he just, they hated the hippies, and, you know, they're performing in Vegas and clubs. Right. And it all starts at Humphrey Bogart's house. Now, Humphrey Bogart was a cool kid. Yeah. He was a... Now, who's Humphrey Bogart?

Is he from Sound of Music? No, not Sound of Music. Gone with the Wind? Who's Humphrey Bogart? Humphrey Bogart was from Gone with the Wind, right? He was the main actor of Gone with the Wind, right? I think he was in Gonewood to it. But just let me just say this to, this is what ego does to us as well.

Humphrey Bogart was one of the biggest actors in acting history, bigger than probably Lenard DiCaprio was during his time and probably walked around yelling at everyone. I don't know if he was a nice guy or not, but, you know, probably was like, I'm the man. And then look at all these just a few years later, we don't even know who he is. So like, whatever you're doing in your life, just shut up about it because it's not actually that important. Yes. Nobody who does anything really is because you'll just be lost to time. So just enjoy it and just treat people with kindness.

Yes, because you guys and respect and just be humble. Yeah, because it's not that big a deal. No matter who you are. Yes. Now, when we were kids, for some reason, if you were smoking a blunt and you'd say, stop Bogarting that blunt. Now, why was that? Why was Bogart's name that?

I think it was like an aggressive thing, like you would just take over, you know? Yeah, you're Bogarting. Yeah, yeah, don't bogart that. Yeah, but it had to be based on Humphrey Bogart and saying that. Yeah, of course. Yeah, because he was a smoker. I don't know why. We could look that up and find out what it was.

Because he was a cool motherfucker. He was cool. Listen, he was the guy. I didn't pass my blunt so long because I didn't want to give people mono. Yeah, you had mono back. I always had mono. Yeah. Humphrey was the guy back then.

He was cool. Yeah. He was cool. And so the guys would go over his crib and just chill. So this is, so this is the rat pack starts at Humphrey Bogart's house? It starts at Humphrey Bogart's house. The guys would come over. They'd riff, they'd drink.

They'd play on the keyboards. They'd joke around. they'd hang out and just to all hours of the morning and then one night They didn't meditate before They did not do any of that Yeah

These guys partied hard Yeah And they were naughty And they liked to womanize And they had big appetites And it's just what they did Oh this is what it is Yeah

So the phrase don't Bogart that blunt Means don't selfishly keep that to yourself Pass it on The term Bogart is a slang verb derived from the actor Humphrey Bogart Who was famous for letting a cigarette Dangle from the corner of his mouth For long periods in his films

without actively smoking it or taking a drag. Wow, yeah. You didn't even know that. We didn't. Yeah, it's amazing because that got into like kids slang and it's originally from Humphrey Bogart, which is amazing. So you guys just learned something. That's probably the only thing you're going to learn in this whole first year of history hyenas.

Yeah, so maybe take back what I said. Maybe Humphrey Bogart is more famous than I give him credit for. Yeah, because, yeah. Sorry about that. But so at his house and then his wife one day sees Frankie S. Baby. Frankie S. Baby. Yeah. Dean Martin, baby.

Joey Bishop, baby. And Peter Lofwood walking like at three in the morning, baby, coming back from Vegas. And she said, they're rolling in like a rat pack because they were all hung over and, you know, whatever, on pills, whatever they were doing, baby. So she's actually the one that coined the term rat. Rat pack. Now, how come Don Rickles wasn't in the rat pack? Now, the rap pack was a set, original five, baby, that Frankie, so Bogart was the original leader, then Bogie dies, baby, and then Frankie takes the rap pack and he says, let's do something with this. Yeah. Frankie's like, let's go tour.

Right. He put the, he was like, let's go to Vegas, baby. Let's do shows, baby. Let's turn this into a thing. They did numbers with ticket sales, right? And he did numbers. Numbers. And it was kind of like, to think about it, it was kind of like the first, like, live podcast.

Those guys would go up. They'd riff. There wasn't really a script. They'd make up the show before and be, all right, baby, I'm going to open with this number, baby. But you come out, baby. You riff with me, baby. You call me a black. I call you a Jew.

They would mess with each other like that. Oh, yeah. Is that where the Dean Martin Rose eventually come from? Absolutely. But to answer your question, the rap... Can you answer my question? Yeah, it was the original five, but then there was a lot of moving parts that came in and out of that. Johnny Carson was at one show.

Like you said. Don Rickles probably. A lot of guys would come in and out. and, you know, Marilyn Monroe. They do shows with her. They did shows with all types of people. Marilyn Monroe will get cracked shit. And Sidney Sweeney should play her in a movie about her life and a biopic about

Marilyn Monroe. Sydney Sweeney's movie bombed. Which one was that? I mean, massive bomb opening weekend. Yeah, I don't even know which one it is. It's the one called Christy about the female boxing. Oh, yeah, because she's not, she's not sexy. Exactly.

That's what it is. Yeah. Also, I just think, you know, You know, if the movie's not on Amazon, people just are not going on out. Sidney Sweeney was at the Comedy Seller last week. Really? Yeah, with our boyfriend, Scooter Braun, because they were watching Shultzzi. Oh.

Is that his manager, Scooter Braun? I don't know, but they were, that's Sidney's Sweeney's boyfriend. And supposedly, uh, the manager, the comedy seller told me as soon as she got up a one of the comics, so I won't name just in case he gets, uh, he gets legally involved with this, but he ran over and sniffed her seat. That's a move. And I don't know if she knows about that and is going to sue him, but supposedly, it made a lot of people laugh. That's a choice you can make. Because that's a, but he like

dove in and smelled it. Was his last name DeStefano? Yeah. Yeah. I just took a whiff. You gotta take a little peek at a sniff. And a sniff. Yeah. If you can't slurp, you can sniff. And the joke was on me, though, because I sniffed the wrong seat and I sniffed Scootabron seat.

It's what it is. Cause. Yeah. I mean, she's a certified dime piece, though. Now, it's one of the worst opening box offices ever. $1.3 million weekend, yeah. Well, what are you going to do? What are you going to do? I think it has less to do with her than just nobody's going to the movies. No.

Yeah. No, I want to go, well, you saw a black phone, too, with Ethan Hawke, and he said it sucked. I didn't love it that much, and yeah, I watched, I rented, I paid 20 bucks for it. Yeah, just by yourself. Yeah, and I only did it because I wanted to just hear Ethan Hawke's voice. Well, you got to listen to, I told you, there's a movie. that's out right now where it's all dialogue with him and he's it's set in a bar in like the 1930s and it's just Ethan Hawk talking yeah but I don't know if I could sit through that

because he uh he's got makeup on and he's got a comb over he's not looking cute yeah I don't I only like him when he's looking at it when he's looking at I know when you're watching like before what is it before midnight yeah when you like a lot yeah it's like I like to look at your glasses before and then glasses here after they're going to be fogged up and full of gum yeah how do we get him on the pod the answer is he's not coming He just won't do a pod like this, right? Well, he will do pods. He just will not do our pod.

Yeah. I've reached out multiple times, and I've even had my agent reach out. And the answer is a resounding? No. Did you really have a week? I told you multiple times I did, and the answer is just, no, no, no, no. Did it come from him or did it come from his people? Well, it came from his people.

The answer is fucking no. I have fucking heartbroken over that. Yeah, the answer is at absolute no. And he doesn't live far from our studio, and the answer is still, and he doesn't want to come on the show. He doesn't like what the show. the show stands for. He's not into it. He's not into it. This is not, this is not intelligent enough for him. It's not articulate enough for him. And I get it. I understand if I was Ethan Hawke, I wouldn't come on either. No, you know what I want to say right now? You know what I

want to say? Say it. Fuck you. Fuck you. Oh my God. I'm just saying, fuck you, dude. He doesn't mean it, Ethan. He's just having feelings. I do mean it. Go make another fucking movie that nobody cares about the Richard Lanklet or nobody gives a shit about your business. They care about Comedians giving serious opinions So you're out of business Ethan he doesn't meet it Ethan Okay, it's like honey What do I always tell you baby

You can have feelings feelings are okay But it's how you react to those feelings It's the problem And you're reacting negatively I'm upset and you want to know what Oh, we're the problem why Because we're having a good time How about when you

Way song she ain't Cut that out Oh my God Who's the bad person Did he? I hate when people act like They're holier than now just because of something.

Because I was just joking. I don't know if he wants to come on the bottom night. Well, I take it all back. He's just a human. He's a man. He's got appetites. The woman was in his house.

What's he going to do? What can you do? Because guys would just fuck what's... That's just... You could be married to Ouma Thurman. Yeah. You know, you could be married to a poop slurper. It's what it is.

And you'll fuck the housekeeper. Yeah. It's just what happened. I mean, Arnold Schwarzenegger did it. I mean, remember the woman that he... The nanny that he banged was like... I mean, nothing compared. to his wife, but he just banged it out. So they just need a little new push. Yeah, I'd like to

just take this time to apologize to Ethan Hawke for what you. Please apologize to Ethan Hawke, yeah, because he may have, I mean, I could check my email right now and he's confirmed for the pod. Because I like AG1. I've told you about this. I put it in my water. Sometimes I put it in my yogurt. It's a nice little green powder. It gets you your nutrients. It gets you what you need. We talked about vitamin D3 plus K2. Remember we talked about that? This has it. This is a great way to start your day. I start my day every day with AG1. Okay, especially now with darkness, shorter days that might throw you off, but superfoods and B vitamins support steady energy without the crash.

I like that. And because holiday meals, because you know me, I like to eat cherry pies, I like to eat sweets. I like to eat linda tarts.

enjoy the rest of the episode. I'm gay. Here's the thing though. Friends like me and you, Ethan, we get into fights. Peter Lawford, you know, and Frank Sinatra got into fights. Do they really? Dean Martin. And first of all, Dean Martin was a big kid. Right.

6-2-220. It's a big boy. He used to box. Right. He was a box that he was an Italian kid from the Midwest. That changed his name to Dean. What was his actual real name? Dean Martin's real name? His real name is really funny. Let me sauce monkey award name. Go, uh, can you, what's his real name? His real name is special. Is it? Yeah. Yeah, just click on him.

Real name is great. Yeah, what's his real name? Dino Paul Crocketti. Yeah. Dino Paul Cretti. Now, you couldn't, I don't think you could bring them to Hollywood back. Dino Crochetti ain't going to work. Dino Pocchetti, it was his Catholic-given name.

So Dino Crocketti was full-blooded Italian. Now, all these guys, let's be honest, we're all linked to the mafia at the time, right? Frank Sinatra was the guy. I mean, Frank and Dean... Was a mobster? No, but he was linked to these guys. They love Frankie, Frankie, loved them. Back then the mob ran Vegas

So if you're you They used to do all these shows in Sans Casino and all these casinos They were all owned by the mob They used to in Vegas they would do the Golden Nugget Now the Golden Nugget is like you know Not looked at as like a premier place or maybe it is But I know back then the Golden Nugget was where they would perform Mad Dog told me that

You want to hear something crazy? Yeah Where Soljo has his club At Stony Brook Frank Sinatra performed there And Frank Sinatra signed the wall And if you go back backstage in the big room, I like to call that to Nate Bargatsy room, because I can't sell it.

If you go backstage, you can see signatures from like going back to the 30s and 40s. That's very cool. But somebody broke in and cut out the drywall and stole the Frank Sinatra autograph. Oh, so it's not off. So there's a hole in the wall there. It's what it is. And knowing Soljol, he never patched it up. It's not patched up, no.

Yeah, I mean, these guys would go around. It's funny when you think about what kind of icons and They became in Hollywood and stuff. But these guys mostly, like us, performed live. Right. Which is what I found so interesting learning about this was these guys would perform live. They'd go to Kansas City. They'd go all over the country and they would do live gigs.

Traveling around. And comedy and music kind of went together. And Frankie loved that. Frankie's opener was a comic. Right. And Frankie loved guys that were funny. He loved Joey Bishop because he was funny. He loved Dean Martin because he was funny.

He loved Dean Martin. Now, Dean Martin was a good kid. Now, real quick, this association with the mobsters. Zachary. Sanacho was linked to Lucky Luciano, Bugsie Siegel, Sam Jean-Connor, Carla Gombino, and Joseph Fischetti. And he always denied saying that he was

in the mob and all that, but these guys loved it. And then he also had a beef with JFK. Did you know that? Yeah, they had a little bit of a point out of it. Well, first of all, I just want to say one time, one time, Dean Martin and Frankie Sinatra had one fight and it turned into a fist fight. Dean Martin and Frankie Sinatra did?

And Dean Martin, fucking knocked them out. And they didn't talk for 10 days. And then Frankie called him and he said, I still love you, baby. Yeah. Frankie Sinatra said baby after every second. So Sinatra got knocked out clean?

The kid was a skinny fucking string bean. He was 5'10. And Dean Martin was 6-220 and he used to box. Whoa. What was it the fight over? Do we know? It was a little, they got into a little argument backstage and Frankie just ran at him

and he ran right into a clean right. Oh, with one punch, Dean knocked him? Knocked him cold out, baby. You don't want to see, yeah, theme part, Sinatra, fight. Yeah, I'd like that. Stuff like that is very interesting. The night Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, got into a brawl.

They got into a little something at the polo lounge. You messed up my suit, baby. Yeah. So what happened? Yeah, go ahead. Go down a little bit. A little scrap. Dino, as he was known to his intimates,

they were on at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills. This is June 7th, 1966, late-night baths, just after midnight movies, TVs, you know, concerts. They're doing it all up. And then what happened was is they're all there getting banged out, right? And then what happens? There are two men. Did we see what actually happened?

Yeah, stopping in for a nightcap, they took a booth alongside Snatch and Martin chatted over drinks, two men. And then they were barely able to hear each other over. laughter and then something happened and then eventually Wiseman grew annoyed taking a back Who the fuck knows? They got into a fight. I mean these people

write these articles It's like just tell us what we want to hear I don't care about anything that's going on in your life Yeah but this is this is not it this has something to do with something else when they got this is a bra with other people But they fought each other It wasn't even a bra I mean He just he just cold knocked him out

Right he just cold knocked him out once And, but they were... Once not somebody out or got knocked out Has that ever happened to you? No. Never. Never.

Once that's when you got into a legitimate fist fight, not with your brother. Dude, I mean, college. Like you got into an actual fist fight? Yeah, a few of those in college, but that's the laugh.

Like just drunk swinging on people? Unless I'm forgetting something after that. Yeah, college, yeah. Yeah, I haven't gotten into one in a while either. Yeah. Do you want to go start one? Yeah, you want to just fucking fight? You want to just go out there

and fucking just start pounding on Patty? Yeah, just, dude, he would beat the shit out of us. He would just sit on us. I would punch him in the stomach and his shorts would fall down. Yeah. I don't know what the fight was over. I mean, look, Frankie, Frankie loved Sammy Davis Jr. too. So.

They were not racist, these guys. But did they call him the N-word a little bit? Probably for fun. You got two Italian guys walking around. Unfortunately. I mean, one guy's really friends with the mob. Now, the mob guys were definitely racist. And they definitely, definitely, at least.

called Sammy Davis more than 346 times that definitely happened and he just had to deal with it do you think that's why he converted to Judaism at some point he just got pushed there yeah it's probably it's probably was and there's one story where

Sammy Davis was in like the lobby or whatever and they were like you can't be here like you know because of the whites and Frankie Sinatra always defended him he was like I'll leave I'll pull every cent so Frankie Sinatra defended him in a weird way You got to call him Frankie Gray Zones.

He was in bed with all these racist mafia guys. Right. Definitely didn't like the blacks. Right. But he was big into the talent and Sammy Davis Jr. He loves Sammy Davis Jr. So I don't think Frank Sinatra himself was racist. No.

But I think Frank Sinatra was a complicated guy who was also Italian. So it's like you're born with it if you're Italian. So it's in there. Now Frank Sinatra is one of those interesting guys because I've heard people say that he really, it was more than his talent that made him so famous because as far as just singing goes, it's not like he was an unbelievable singer, right? He was a crazy dancer. That's what it was?

The kid could dance like my dad when he tapped dance for General Clock. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, Italian guys just have a little racism in them. There's nothing they can do about it. They're born with that. Right. It's, um, I think at some point Italian guys even call their mom once in a while. Yeah, it's just what it is. Just can't help it.

Yeah. Yeah. Now Frank Sinatra's son Yeah. Did you know he was kidnapped? Yes. And he was taken from his hotel, hotel room. Yeah, in Lake Tahoe. It was only after a week after JFK got killed. And they paid, he had to pay $240,000, which they paid. They did. The FBI was on the

case. The mob was on the case. Did they ever catch the guys? They did. And the guy only did like four years. Yeah, do you ever really get away with it? Like, even if you get the money on a kidnapping, like, you're not going to get away with it. Well, the guys, the two guys that did it were really Franks and beans, and I think they let the son

like, convince them to let somehow get free on the highway or whatever and the guy just escaped the kid just escaped frankie junior right i think he just eventually escaped or something like that right yeah they were three kidnappers were eventually caught and convicted yeah i mean what are you going to do yeah what can you do the trauma of the event led sinatra to carry a roll of dimes with him everywhere he went for the rest of his life a habit he maintained into his death uh he was buried with 10 dimes in his pocket why oh oh because of the pay phone he had to use the pay phone to call hades the underworld no to call um the kidnappers

He was always talking to the kidnappers or whatever. Oh, I see. Maybe that's what it is. I'm just guessing. I don't know what it is. But Old Blue Eyes was the leader of the pack. He's the one that booked all the shows. When is the last time the Rat Pack performed?

1970-something. Yeah. They did one final boom. Yeah, and they knew it was over then? How did they know it was over? Well, here's the interesting thing. Tell me what's interesting. I'll tell you what's interesting.

They were all kind of famous in their own right. Dean, Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin teamed up. right and they did about 19 movies together and had a 10 year run and they couldn't be more famous the jerry lewis telethon yeah yeah that was before the telethon i mean and then jerry lewis went solo and he did the nutty professor which was a massive hit for him sure but jerry lewis never really got over the breakup dean martin wanted to go solo he was like i just can't do it anymore baby we've done 10 years he felt suffocated right wait a second dean martin and jerry lewis were a duo before dean martin joined the rap pack absolutely baby

Maybe you gotta talk like a fucking rat packer today, but I didn't know that Let's get some bruns and fuck some showgirls I didn't know that chicky And give some martinis and do some quay ludes Oh yeah, is that what they did right? Oh baby Quays these guys fuck showgirls they fuck models they fuck I mean baby Dean Martin had a roll decks and he called it the beauties Yeah all the wives knew too they knew baby

So you were just allowed to openly cheat on your wife back then No you were not to openly do it, but I guess these ladies kind of understood what, you know, what comes with the, what comes, it's a side that comes with the main course. If your main course is Frankie Sinatra, baby, he's going to, he's going to be sniffing around a few showgirls while he's in Vegas. It's just what it is. Yeah. What he's going to do. Yeah. And so, yeah, Martin Lewis, they met at a comedy club, like a small show in like New York or Jersey. Like Dean Martin was singing or whatever, and Jerry Lewis. And debuted at the Atlantic City's

500 Club in 1946. Yeah, so they met when they were, you know, and Jerry Lewis was younger. Jerry Lewis came out when he was like an unknown and started messing around with Dean Martin while he was singing, fling his tie. And Dean Martin was notoriously like a go with the flow guy. That's awesome. His whole thing was like he would joke about like, I'm accidentally famous. The kids could sing. But he had this like, he had this like cool thing about him where he should just go with the flow, baby.

Right. And he supposedly didn't love the spotlight. He was a good family man, but he was also drunk. What, Dean Martin was a familyman and didn't have Gumare's? He had Gumaris. So, okay, so back then you could be a family man, but it was understood you also had a Gumade. Oh, because he had a football field roster. That was the beauties, you're saying.

They didn't have a single Gumari back then. Right. These guys fucked. Yeah. These guys, what they did is they fucked. They totally fucked. With no Jimmy hats. Yeah, I mean, these guys fucking, I mean, if Me Too was around back then,

me too couldn't have a big enough net to catch all of their fucking improper power dynamic fucks right these guys were fucking in Vegas yeah they were fucking in Kansas City they were fucking in Chicago they were fucking in New York they were fucking in newer cuz they were fucking overseas yeah yeah they were slinging dick yeah then they did and they look yeah it's very very very interesting yeah I mean I cause I scrolled down a little bit I want to see I want to see um when their very last show was that's what I want to know because I want to know like did they know it was coming to an end

did they know it was their last show? I'm very... 1988 together again in tour. The tour again. They did it 8.8. Can we play them for... Can we just play a second? It was only three of them by that time.

People were dying. Barbara Simpson, it's just O.J. Simpson's sister. Yeah. Well, those were the three main guys, to be honestly. Those are the three big guys. Yeah, the other guy's Peter Lawford and the other asshole. I just... Well, what happened was a comic, so we should know him.

Well, Joey Bishop was very talented. Frankie loved him. He said he was like the funniest straight man. Joey Bishop got a little too big for his bridges. He went and tried to do a sister. After the rap pack kind of made him famous because the rap pack did a bunch of movies together They had a run where they're doing a bunch of they did probably about 350 shows all over the country together And then they did like tons of movies together Joey Bishop went and tried to do a sitcom on his own and it flopped

Didn't work but then Frankie called him up one night and said I because Frankie you love to do impromptu shows Okay so Frankie would go he would call him up and go let's do a fucking show and uh Chattanooga Yeah he'd call the guys and he'd expect him to fly in Joey Bishop one time got a little big for his bridges, right, during the height of the fame of all of them. And Joey Bishop goes, I want a private jet and 50 grand cash. And Frankie went, excuse me, baby. Yeah. He said, baby, I'm Frankie Blue Eyes.

Yeah. I made you. Yeah. Baby, I'm doing you. Yeah. And Joey Bishop's going, I'm Joey Bishop now. So Frankie said, go be Joe Bishop. No, go be Joey Bishop now.

That's what you said. You go be Joey Bishop now then. Yeah. Go be Joey Bishop. Is that really? And then Joey Bishop disappeared because we're talking about Blue Eyes. Yeah. If Blue Eyes calls you in the middle of night and says, come fix my toilet, you go fix his fucking toilet.

A hundred percent. If I was in the rap pack and Frankie Blue Eyes called me in the middle of the night and said, come over here now, I would say, baby, look down, I'm here. That's exactly right. I've been sleeping on your lap since about 10 p.m. I pulled down early. Yeah. So Joey Bishop, his head got a little big from show business, and he forgot where his bread was buttered. And so then Joey Bishop, and then Joey Bishop kind of never got over that.

Yeah. Because his career just fucking pummeled because Frankie just blackballed him out of that. Yeah. Yeah. Because Frankie, dude, Frankie was a very charitable guy, and he loved talent, right? So that's why he was a big fan of Sammy Davis and Dean Martin. He just loved talent. But the interesting thing is Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin, right?

So they broke up, but Jerry Lewis didn't want to broke out. Joey Lewis was like, we got this good. These guys weren't, I mean, box office gold. Right. The most famous comedy duo in the country. And Dean just goes, you know what? Because he was a little in Jerry's shadow. Yeah.

Because Jerry was like the goofy one and was like the straight guy. So Dean was just, baby, I just can't do it. Right. So they didn't speak for a long time because Jerry was upset. And then and then Dean took off with the rap. pack when Frankie brought him in and Jerry used to really the rat pack used to bother Jerry. Wow.

Even though Jerry was so famous. Famous and he had a big hit with the nutty professor but then after the nutty professor the kid just started doing telethons. Yeah. And it's just... That's what he's known from. Yeah. And Dean Martin was living this cool fucking life but Jerry never really got over it. Interesting. Yeah, he never really got over it but then

they did reunite for one thing and they did kind of sweep it under the rug and stuff. But baby show business is messy. You got egos, you got money. but it's also show business is very much steeped in like you said ego and money and just fear there's a lot of fear you know being a part of the entertainment industry there's a lot of drama i should say because they're dramatic actors is drama right like even even even like subtle shit like you know you go on the sag after's website and it'll say like you know like username and password and then forgot username

password and that's usually every website but then in the sag after website it also says report sexual harassment so it's like that's a real thing but it's like the the whole industry is like give us drama right right now give us drama press that button for the drama right that's just what it is yeah well that's the business we get into people want to talk about us we want to be everyone wants to be famous so it's like you you famous people talk about you and they love drama they don't want to hear oh the guy's just a good guy they want the salacious details yes and if there are none they'll make them up, which is why, you know, I think collectively people who are in entertainment are just like pulling back. People don't really are not like going. I don't think it's young kids wishes

anymore to be the most famous person ever. Yes. I don't think, I think it's not that big, it's not that as many kids dreams today as it was 40 years ago. Because you mentioned before that Jesse looks like he's 40 years old and you know why? Because he's been taking a little hymns. He's told us that he's noticed some hair loss and he can't get it up. Yeah. I mean, So now Hymns has just changed his life. Kid is looking really good. He says it every day. He says it all the times, Cus.

Tell me why, because he's... Ladder 14. Yeah. Is that sure? Are you going towards? I was kind of going towards, well, he kind of was when I tell the story. Is it? No, but what?

Let's be honest, he tried to get down. Let's be honest. So he was definitely the bigger star because he was not the straight man. Martin was the straight man, right? So Jerry was funnier. But Jerry pursued Martin, which is interesting. This is why it's so interesting. Because Jerry was like, you know, elastic and kind of like Jim Carreyish and was like Pratt Folley.

But Jerry knew he needed, like, structure and a straight guy. So he pursued Lewis. Got it. And so then when they came together and Lewis is, and Lewis is Martin and Lewis, I'm saying Lewis, but it's Jerry Lewis. I'm saying he pursued Lewis. He pursued Martin. Right.

So Jerry Lewis pursued Martin because he needed that structure, that straight man. And it just was, the chemistry was gold when they got together because they were opposites. But Jerry Lewis was in the movies. He was the wild one, right? Right. Right. So then on the, on the, they, they were filming their movie where they had their breakup, and Jerry Lewis wanted the majority of the money. He was going like, I'm the star, I want more money. And Lewis is going, fuck you, baby. They actually didn't even finish the movie. They split on set. People lost money. The movie was never finished. Never finished. And, and, and am I corrected that? I'm reading that. Yeah. And so Dean Martin just walked off. Wow. That's it. And then, unfortunately, Jerry Lewis had to watch Dean Martin's fucking. meteoric rise with the rap pack.

Explode. He said to watch it. And it must have hurt even more because Dean Martin was such a go with the flow type guy. He was just so charismatic. Like Dean Martin wasn't thinking, but that effortless. But I'd argue. He woke up at 12. He didn't rehearse. He notoriously didn't rehearse. He said if you're good, you don't need to rehearse. But that's, but I'd argue that's why Dean Martin was so much more successful than Jerry

Lewis because Dean was just going with the flow. Like, I don't think it's, I don't think it was accidental. Jerry Lewis probably got in his own way. more than he even realized by just putting too much pressure on himself in the situation than not just going with the flow and letting it happen because the bottom line is, baby, you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. You just got to live in the present and be friendly with it. Yeah, that's, uh, what, did I just make that up about the money? Yes. Yes. Yeah, did I just, did that happen? No, it did not. Oh, here we go. Lewis's

arrogance. Lewis's ego grew significantly with their success, uh, reports from the set of their final film Hollywood or bust described the animosity becoming so intense that Lewis would speak to Martin through their director. Martin reportedly referred to Lewis as an effing dollar sign. The relationship was also strained by their wives. Jerry Lewis were very

close to Dean's first wife Betty and disapproved of his divorce. Why are you getting into the guy's personal life? Yeah, Jerry Lewis sounds kind of annoying. Yeah, I know you're thinking, Jesse, they make you hate him. Yeah. Loud of 14. I mean, why you got to be so

nosy? I mean, I understand that the, you know, Martin and Lewis gave their last performance together at the Colbook of Banna Club on July 25th, 1956 just a month or two after my mother was born. Yeah. So I guess why was Martin calling him an effing dollar sign because all he cared about his money?

They were only together for 10 years. Yeah, 10 years, they did 19 movies. It's a lot of movies. It's a lot of movies. And 10 years is a long run. Yeah, think about that. For 19 movies? Yeah.

So these guys probably just fucking got sick of each other. Wow, look at that. In a surprise of the 1976, Jerry Lewis, Telethon, Sinatra brought Martin on stage, orchestrating an emotional, though awkward reunion that was broadcast nationally. Because they didn't speak for 20 years. Lewis sometimes publicly disparaged Martin. But, yeah, brought Martin on stage. And it was the men did not fully reconcile until after the tragic death of Martin's son.

So when Martin's son died, baby, he died to plane crash. Martin kind of changed after that, Bubba. You would see him in a restaurant sitting by himself. He was, he was. He got banged up. banged up bed. These guys all got banged up a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. I got banged up. I think one of their kids died

I think it was Frankie Sinatra's kid died he drowned in a pool when he was 14, he dove in and hit his head baby. Oh shit. So a lot of these guys got a little banged up. They... These guys lived. Right. They lived. They had scars. Things

happened. Right. Right. Yeah, I mean, what can you do? I mean, no, he said his son died of a heart attack at 72. No, but there was another one. Somebody's kid died Yeah In a pool And I think it was Frankie Frankie Sinatra

Yeah I mean what It's awful Yeah Bad stuff happens But I mean the rat pack I mean ask your Ask your grandmother and grandfather About the rap pack

My aunt My aunt saw Frank Sinatra Perform live And said it was an amazing Experience And that he supposedly blew a kiss at her I said

I think that's true But she says He did Maybe he did Maybe he did, maybe he didn't. That's the thing. Who am I? Who am I to, you know.

I saw Queen perform live and the lead singer Blue kiss at me. What's his name? Adam Azara. What is it? Adam Lazare is the lead singer of Queen? Yeah. That Hardy. Yeah, I, um, it's not, it's not, um, it was not Frankie's Jr's kid.

It was not Frankie Sinatra's kid. Yeah, it's just what it is. Sometimes you know what you're talking about, and sometimes you don't. And that one, and this one, I mean, I don't, I don't know. Some of the things I could have been saying is true, some of them false. I don't know. But that's the thing about the show is I just like that we don't even know the answer. Yeah, no.

So no son of any rap pack member died by drowning in a pool. Somebody hit their fucking head and died in a pool. Someone hit their head and died in a pool, bitch. You know what? We will do more sexing with Grock at patreon.com slash history hyenas. But what an era, huh? I mean, it's just never going to go back there unless China sends one of those EMF things that knocks out our internet. Yeah.

I would like to go back. If it didn't mean that it was going to cause world hunger, I would like to get rid of the internet. Well, here's Peter Lawford. That's what happened? Peter Lafford was found unconscious near a swimming pool. So there you go. After falling and hitting his head on a complications prior to that. But did he die?

Yeah, I guess he did. No, he ultimately died in the hospital. Yeah, he didn't die of that. I knew there was a pool somewhere. I still think that there's something missing there. But it doesn't really matter. No. But you know what's interesting about this?

It's interesting that Frankie Sinatra had this idea, right? like based on their hangouts just at Humphrey Bogart's house and he just saw it and he saw them like playing the piano and joking around. Right. So most of it was just the joking around and he's going like, why don't we turn this into a show? Yeah, smart. He was like, why don't we turn us into a show

where we do a little song and dance but most of it was that the people loved was the joking that they did in between the numbers and sometimes when you watch them perform they'll be joking throughout the song. Right. They don't even care about the song. It's about joking.

Yeah. Like, so you were basically going to see a show of friends joking around with each other. There's something to that. And he brought together these powerhouses. Because remember, Sammy Davis Jr. was famous by this time. Dean Martin was famous by this time. Peter Lofford was famous. Joey Bishop was famous.

And these were guys that he handpicked. And he said, baby, I'm putting this little committee together, this crew together. Yeah. And they all bring something to the table like Joey Bishop supposedly wrote all the jokes. He was like the main joke writer. Right. Well, he was the stand-up comic. Yeah.

And then even Peter Laffer, he was like, We're bringing you in because of your connection to Kennedy, and you're the weakest link, but I want you to get me in good with Kennedy. Because Frank Sinatra loved being the guy. He loved being the guy, but then he had a falling out with Kennedy. He had a falling out with Kennedy.

I think he had a falling out with Peter Laughford, too, because he wanted Kennedy to stay at his house in Palm Springs. Let's look up the story. So he said, Peter Lafford, you good for nothing fucking Brit. Yeah. Okay, we beat your ass in a fucking revolution. I'm an Italian kid from Hoboken.

Yeah, right? I used to fucking have to fight all these Irish kids who called me Wop. Right. You do what I say, because I know Giacana, I want Kennedy to stay at my house. Right. What ends up happening is Kennedy stays, I think, at fucking Milton Burrell's house or somebody else's house, right? Right. And he was pissed.

So Frank Sinatra and Peter Lawford had to deliver the news that JFK would not be staying at Sinatra's home as planned. And he stayed at somebody else's house. The reason why he didn't want to stay there is because of all the mob ties. Which is probably true because why would an active U.S. president want to stay at anybody's fucking else? Yeah, I know. The president. But back, this is like high society shit. Right.

But he wanted him at his house. He wanted to fucking hang out with the president. And then he goes, you're married to the guy's sister and you can't fucking deliver the president to hang out with me. You can't tap dance. You can't sing. Right. You're a fucking British nobody. Right.

All right? Hit the bricks, kid, baby. And beat it. He kicks him to the bricks. And that's what it is. And they didn't end up speaking for years. But that's a little petty. I mean, imagine the president having his sleepover.

Because, yeah. That's crazy. Is that a little petty, though? It's like you didn't get him to stay at my house. I mean, the ego, the thing is, the thing is because nine times out of ten to get to that level of fame, you have to have such a massive ego that petiness follows right behind. Yeah. Most people are petty that way. people are like they have to be the center of attention they have to be front of the pack you know

that's why i'm telling you because i don't want to be that yeah i want to be in the back of the pack after that frank sinatra just blackballed fudge packing they cut them out of movies and everything imagine that imagine you get cut out all the movies just because you couldn't get the president to sleep over your house yeah it's just what it is frankie sinatra was a mixed bag he was a bit of a mixed bag he was a probably a bit of a long day he was a bit of a little bit of a long day hang out with right he probably just fucking was tough He was a tough hang probably But handsome as all can be

And talented and also bang a lot of chicks Right? Oh, baby But his main love, baby Let's talk about his main love You're a kid that likes love Yeah, Eva Gardner Oh yeah, is she related to Eva Broad? Now, Eva God

Now you know this kid also married The Wackaw that Woody Woody Allen married when she was 21 Yucosee or whatever Shohai Otani? Not Shohia Atani Mia Faro When she was 21 and he was like 60

It's just what it is He got bagged out He married her too But that was I mean absolute peace Did she have Were there fumes back then Because it doesn't matter

You swim through that Because she was Go on you put your trunks on And you swim through that Yeah I mean She was gorgeous And Frank Sinacho is just not I mean he's handsome enough

I mean he's not that handsome He's a he's a good looking guy Yeah But not in the truth Not like Dean Martin No Dean Martin was hot You drop your fucking

You drop your draws You drop your trousers I mean look at Look at her, though, Ava Gardner. She's gorgeous. And that was his main love. And I think she walked on him now. Did she walk on him?

Yeah, I don't know. I never got over it, baby. He never got over it. She just didn't want to be with her. I can't be with you anymore. I can't go with you anymore. Wow. Wow, they married 72 hours.

His kids, Sinatra got divorced and then married her immediately within three days. He was three days. And they only made it two years. She had two abortions while she was married to six. Sinatra. That's not good. Were they his kids? Now, a lot of people think, by the way, a lot of people think, and I think Nick also is probably knows about this conspiracy that Ronan Farrow is actually Frankie Sinatra's son. And there's no question he is. I mean, there's just, does that look like Woody Allen to you? Wait, Woody Allen says that this is his son? It was, so he was raised by Woody Allen, right?

But did Woody Allen say this is biologically, my kid? Well, this is what the thing is. Mia Farrell was with Woody Allen when he was born. But Frank Sinatra continued to maybe see hang out with Mia Farrell here and there. How old was Frank Sinatra in 1987? He wasn't young. He wasn't young.

But that is, I mean, it looks. That is not Woody Allen. I'll tell you that. Dude, not only is he not Woody Allen, it looks exactly like Frank. Pull up Frank Sinatra Roan next to each other. So that is Ronan Farrow You know the guy who took down so many people

I mean Let's just It's obvious Yeah It's just like Chloe Kardashian is OJ's daughter We know I mean that is So Mia Farrow cheated on Woody Allen

And fucked Frank Sinatra At some point So does Woody Allen still to this day Believe that that's his son What does he think about it I don't think they talk to each other After the whole thing I know

but what, of course they don't, but has he ever mentioned it? Has Woody Allen ever mentioned that? I mean, it's so obviously his son. They look exactly alike. Wait, and what happened with Woody Allen again? He banged his stepdaughter. What is it? Oh, Woody, yeah, I mean, so what Woody started doing, so it wasn't his stepdaughter. That's the thing. This is just shows you how, but it's still bad, okay? It was, um, it was Mia Farrow's adopted daughter. Okay. But they lived separately, right? Woody Allen wanted that. They notorious, like, famously lived across the park.

He lived on the West Side. She lived in the East. Even though they were married. They didn't live together. I don't know if they ever married. Did they marry? I'm not sure. Yeah, I don't know if he's not.

But it was, he was not her stepdad. Right. So Woody Allen. But he did kind of raise her. That's funny. Woody Allen has stated that he believes Ronan Farrow is his son, but he wouldn't bet his life on it. Yeah. Is it possible that Frank and Mia hung out?

Like, what's the story? How old was Frank Sinatra in 1987? Yeah. Like how old? Because that, it's like, how long can you blast loads inside someone? And how old was Mia Farrow? You can... Palchino just had a kid at 84.

Yeah. How old was he? 84. 83, something like that. Yeah. You got a newborn. How old was Frank Sinatra when Ronan Farrow was born or something in 87? 71 oh easily okay easily yeah okay yeah i think it's beyond conclusion that that's the father

well it's it's i could tell you this i don't know if frank sinatra is the father but i know for sure woody allen is not he's not the father i mean that you don't he doesn't look i mean not a thing and not a shred at all like woody allen you know what a fun era though everyone was uh this was before Hollywood kind of got formal, right? Right. It's like, this was a wild time,

Jackie Gleason. Now, Jackie Gleason was never in the rap pack. Jack should have been. Well, he was a mega star in his own right. He was like peripherally.

Yeah, I think he performed with them once. Like, they would always have guests come on. Right. Johnny Carson came on once. They had all types of guests. Meera Farrow has said multiple times that Frank Sinatra was the great love of her life. She was 20 or 19 or 21 or some. How old was Mia Farrow in 1987?

How about this one, though? Mia famously said in the 2013 Vanity Fair interview that possibly Frank Sinatra is the father of Ronan. So what is the evidence? He was born in 87. Mia and Sinatra stayed intimate. Oh, so me and Sinatra stayed intimate on and off for decades. So he kept banging it out So she cheated on Woody Allen

Yeah, I guess so That's what it is Ronan jokes about the rumor But refuses to test Is she still alive Mia Farrow? It looks like it Yeah

Woody said Woody said In my opinion He looks a lot like Frank Yeah I wonder what Ronan And Ronan Farrow is like

He's the one He started like the Me Too stuff, right? Something like that. He was like a big... Yeah, he's like the big Hollywood journalist that took down Harvey Weinstein, right? Oh, that's what it is. Okay. Yeah. He got a couple big fish. Did you get Kevin Spacey, too? Yeah. Ronan Farrow got a few big fish. Yeah, I think

Ronan Farrow. I know Ricky Jervase has that joke about him at the Golden Gloves, I think. He's like, you're all scared of Ronner Farrow. Right? Yeah. I think he's a gay guy. Yeah. Yeah. It's what it is. Kid, yeah, I got a... He's done a whole bunch of stuff. Whatever. What are you going to catch and kill.

Who knows? Who knows? He got a lot of them. Yeah. He was a big one for it. Yeah, that was the big one. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's good.

You have good games and bad games. So the list right now, there's only three. Soaping my ass so Chrissy Troubles can blow bubbles.

Saudi Arabian summer camp for gifted journalists. All head, no shaft, and the head isn't big either. Okay. We're going to direct through the head isn't big either. Okay. And then we have a runoff between two, I think, very good ones, even though it was a light. And it's one of these things where it's like the NBA this year. like the, you know, Pacers are down, Celtics are down, but this is what happens sometimes,

like this is the year for the Knicks, hopefully, to win the championship. This is the year that these two names in a high power list wouldn't make it, but it doesn't matter. It's luck of the draw. Right. So one of these two names can win that arguably probably wouldn't have won in a stronger list for the stronger year. And they happen to be lucky enough to be on the same list with a couple of guys who got

decued. They got disqualified because they were walked into one. Right. So you have soaping, By the way, we're going to do a walked into one award at the end of the year, which I guess will be the end of December. We're going to compile all the walked into ones and pick the best one. Sabrina the hyenas working on that. Thank you very much.

Sooping my ass so Chrissy Troubles can blow bubbles or Saudi Arabian summer camp for gifted journalists. What do we like? That's a coin toss. Both very good. I'm leaning towards Saudi Arabia. I like the bubbles one. It makes me laugh. It's a funny visual.

Soping my ass. Yeah, yeah. You don't even hear that, you know. Yeah. We haven't had a Chris one in a while. Yeah. All right. Where do you go, Chris?

I mean, since I went to Saudi Arabia and saw some of the places where they keep the gifted journals, I'm going to go with soaping my hats. Okay. Well, there we have it. Nick, where do you go? I'll go Saudi Arabia. Wow. So now we got a two-for. Oh, whoa.

So what do we do now? Get a pat in here. Whoa. No, it's just Yanni's got to make an executive decision. You are the guy. I just got to make an executive decision. I mean, a guy did die. Right.

Guy did die, but it is funny. We're going to keep it light because we did a rap pack episode. We're going to keep it light. Any other day, thank you for playing. Right. Walked into ones also, thank you for playing. But we're going with Chrissy banging that guy in the ass and creating bubbles. Congratulations to soaping my ass.
