Hey, KFC Radio listeners, you can find every episode of KFC Radio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube.
Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.
Another edition of Watch List Wednesday.
We're talking all TV news, breaking it down for you.
We start off with Succession. It's a show we've been talking about.
We caught up to it. I feel like everyone else out there is doing the same thing.
The finale was, uh... Let's talk about it, Kevin.
Let's break it down.
Because Succession has been
a pretty explosive show to begin with.
A lot of, like, heavy shit.
There's drugs.
There's power.
There's money.
There's sex.
It's not, you know,
an easygoing show.
Nor was the finale.
No, the finale,
everyone, I think,
really seemed to like it.
It was too nice a bow for me.
A little too neat?
Where it was,
I mean,
I guess it kind of,
you can kind of work it
because it literally happened.
Like, Chappaquiddick happened.
It's happened before.
So that accident.
Trouble bridge,
somebody dies,
he,
I mean,
high-powered people,
if you're in a situation
where someone you don't really care for
is about to die
and you're going to go down with it, you're out of there.
Yeah, fucking out.
Real quick.
Me, you, him, Hart, we're all doing the same thing.
But I thought it was just a little too neat with, like, his key card stayed there and shit like that, and Logan came to save the day.
It was good.
It sucked seeing Kendall lose because Kendall is such a flawed character, but you still root for him.
He's so flawed, man.
It's hard to root for him because you know he's going to fuck it all up.
You're like, dude, just stop being a pussy.
Stop doing ketamine.
Stop doing meth.
It's like you're trying to take down this high-powered badass.
You can't be doing meth, okay?
It's, I mean, addiction's a problem.
I understand that.
But you're just like, dude.
It's like, it always reminds me of watching Flight.
You ever see Flight with Denzel?
Denzel.
And I watched that on a Sunday night one time.
And I already had the Sunday stories.
That'll give you the scares real quick.
Dude, stop drinking.
Holy shit.
It was, like, I kind of have that when I'm watching Kendall.
I'm like, dude, just don't have that drink.
You can't have that drink.
You're not the kind of person who can have a fucking drink.
Stop.
You can't just do one.
But it's tough.
It was tough.
I guess, again, since it happened to Chappaquiddick, I guess it works.
But it was a little too neat.
It was a little too much like everything perfectly worked out for Logan.
Yes, that was the thing, though.
Like, that is kind of how I think this is always going to work out.
Like, you ain't going to beat Logan.
But, like, I don't like, more so than how it played out on the episode,
I don't like how it sets up next season.
I would have preferred next season to be the whole season, the battle. Well, it like how it sets up next season. I would have preferred next season to be,
the whole season, the battle.
Well, it still might be.
You never know.
I mean, right now it seems like he's got them by the balls,
but I don't think Kendall's just going to roll over.
He's got, I don't know,
when you're on the hook for murder
and Dad's got the evidence.
Well, maybe it won't be,
maybe it won't be low.
Like, Dad's rushing you out
to the fucking private plane
so you can get out of the country.
Like, you can't really go back on that.
Dad's really got you in his back pocket.
Shout out to my man, Tom.
Marriage off to a rough start.
Tom.
When your wife's in her wedding dress saying,
yeah, I think I want to fuck other people.
It's not exactly how you want to start things off.
So, succession.
I wish you'd told me that before the marriage.
The most dysfunctional, power-crazed family on television right now.
Also, this didn't really come on television right now. Also,
this didn't really
come into play
last episode.
Oh, yeah,
by the way,
it was fucking hilarious
when Rome,
Romulus,
he'd been setting up
his fucking rocket ship
and working on that
rocket launch
and kind of puffing
his chest out
that he's in charge
of the rocket launch, or the satellite
launch, and blows up on
the deck.
And he's freaking out, because he's like,
I may have, he's telling,
what's her name, Jerry? He's telling
Jerry, he's like, I may have sent some
emails saying,
fuck safety regulations.
We need to get
this off, we need to get Laundress on Shiv's wedding day
because I thought it would be a nice present for her.
And Larry goes,
well, you're looking at corporate manslaughter.
And then when they finally find out
that no one actually died,
that two guys lost a thumb
and one guy lost an arm
that they might not be able to reattach.
And he like,
he celebrates.
He celebrates. He celebrates.
He's like, we're going to cancel the party for a couple fucking thumbs.
Rome is, I've said it, it's a TV show of many unlikable characters,
but if there's one guy I get a fucking kick out of.
He's the best.
Is he gay?
That's, I mean.
I think he's gay.
Everybody's on the Kinsey scale.
Everybody's on the scale for sure.
Greg and Tom are fucking.
That's what I'm telling you.
It is the most dysfunctional family on television,
except for the family in the new season of The Sinner.
Season two of The Sinner.
They're not even a family.
It's a cult.
Yeah, I mean, that opening scene with that little fucking kid.
Something, you know, one of the scariest things to me, little kids.
You know, like monsters and goblins and ghouls, whatever.
You give me like a creepy little kid who's just like quietly like poisoning you and shit.
Ooh, buddy.
And now coming into the season, The Sinner, I didn't realize it was an anthology series.
I thought we were going to be right back into the Jessica Biel fucked up family situation.
She's no longer acting now.
She's just the executive producer.
I wasn't sure how I was going to handle that until I heard my girl carrie coon was in it i will watch anything with carrie coon
i was wondering where she was the whole time she's coming until the very end leftovers done
you put her in the center done put her on any tv show right now i will watch it did you think that
did you think that that was like her his real family yeah i mean off the bat you know you don't
you don't know yeah Yeah, you're not.
What is he, a fucking Boy Scout?
How the hell do you go outside and you know what routes are going to kill mom and dad if you pour them some coffee?
I mean, maybe we'll explain some of this along the way.
It did seem a little ridiculous.
But, man, that was a little.
That was some serious acting.
Yo, big time. That was fucking.
Did they just, like, poison you?
What?
They were going to come kill to go kill the kid?
I mean...
That show is so, like, so dark and so fucked up
that, like, it can go absolutely anywhere.
I know.
That's the beauty of it.
Every Wednesday, you don't know what's going to happen.
Fargo.
The show Carrie Coon was on.
I think the best anthology series going right now.
Chris Rock joins the cast.
I don't know about that.
I don't know about this either.
Has Chris Rock ever done something serious?
He did The Five, I think.
Something like that.
Five-year something.
Five-year engagement.
No, no, no.
Five-year engagement.
No.
Why Did I Get Married or some shit like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But even that, I think, is a comedy that's based in family drama.
And that's about it.
I mean, Fargo has very little comedic relief here and there.
But for the most part, you're talking about grisly, dark murders and violence.
Now, I think it's the hot thing in the streets the past five, six years now,
starting with True Detective, the anthology idea where you're going to add on, you know, big actors are going to join the show.
And kind of like, it kind of gives you a chance to McConaughey it, where all of a sudden you're
taken seriously.
Or Vince Vaughn, I'm the funny guy.
Now all of a sudden I'm doing, you know, this type of shit.
Didn't really work out.
Did not work out for Vince Vaughn.
We'll see what Fargo can do.
I feel like this, no matter what though, is a little bit too much of a stretch.
I think, you know what,
after watching Chris's
new special, Tambourine,
he actually might have
the serious in him.
You want to know why?
I think he does,
but it just, you know,
until you do it, it's...
It's gray hair and glasses.
He does have that
distinguished look now.
Yeah, he looks like a guy
that would be...
But you know what
my main problem's going to be
is like the voice,
the cadence.
He's always like, you know, he's so over the top with it.
It's like, we made me shopping.
You know, it's like.
It's supposed to be the, I come every time.
Yeah, exactly.
It's like, is this like.
This is something you're supposed to do.
Look at this dead body.
That was Michael Scott as Chris Rock.
We'll see.
I mean, I really trust Fargo
way more than
True Detective
because Fargo has tried
and true several seasons now
and every time
they knock it out of the park.
So I don't think
you sign up for something like this
if you're in that
over your head.
So we'll find out.
Also, maybe Chris Rock
will do one of
LeBron James' shows
because it seems like
LeBron's doing
55,000 TV shows.
Are you going to even
play basketball, bro?
He's got documentaries
coming out. If you're not a fan of the Lakers, how can you TV shows. I mean, are you going to even play basketball, bro? He's got documentaries coming out.
If you're not a fan
of the Lakers,
how can you,
like, think,
okay.
I mean, he has...
How do you not realize
he's not here for basketball?
He has a prize show,
a million dollar prize show
on CBS.
He has the cartoon.
He has the one on HBO
at the barbershop.
He has one on Showtime,
a documentary series
called Shut Up and Dribble.
That's four shows
LeBron's doing. And then he does, like, all the shit, like, social media uninterrupted stuffribble. That's four shows LeBron's been in.
And then he does
all the shit,
like social media
uninterrupted stuff.
He's got,
I mean,
that's like the
I would guess
the uninterrupted
is going to stop though.
Because,
well at least
it's the barbershop
brought to you
by Interrupted
owned by Bleacher Report.
But I would guess
that they're going to
start putting less
on social media
and just say,
okay,
this is going to go
to the half hour show.
We will see.
I mean, LeBron is not in here for basketball.
In the one clip released to the barbershop,
when it's fucking Draymond, LeBron, Skylar Diggins?
No, I think it's, yeah, whatever.
What's his guy's name?
Maverick Carter.
Maverick Carter, what a fucking scam artist that guy is.
And Snoop Dogg.
And Jon Stewart.
That fucking took me out.
It was like the camera was panning, and then it was like, boom.
White Jewish guy.
There's a little Jew.
You've been talking to Tony Rock about having your black card.
Jon Stewart.
Black card.
Yeah.
Full fucking membership to the club.
Big time black card.
So, yeah, I mean, be on the lookout for LeBron James, the TV director, actor,
documentarian, and maybe occasionally you'll watch him play basketball.
We got Rob Corddry on the show today to talk about his life in Ballers
and Hot Tub Time Machine and all that other good stuff.
Ballers is entourage for sports,
and the most important part of Ballers.
It's not even the show.
It's not even the acting.
It's the theme.
I think we need that door down there. We on
We on
Trying to fuck with Hollywood Grove
Top one song of all time
Top one song of all time right here
Hollywood shows Really tell you something that I really should know.
I'm the slumdog millionaire.
Bollywood flow.
Your friend's trying to kick you with me.
Fake fans.
Fake that juice.
Cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha.
I don't get shit confused.
I'm out with flow circles.
I like my chicks in twos.
How about when Rob Cordery said, I like my chicks in twos. How about when Rob Corddry said, ah, I like my chicks in threes.
Good try, Rob.
Good try.
Good try.
All right.
It's another edition of KFC Radio.
We are joined live in the flesh by Rob Corddry.
What's going on, man?
What's up, everybody?
You're looking dapper.
This is my flesh.
It's a packed room here.
I dressed up for you guys.
You're looking good.
You look like you came right off the set.
But I thought I wouldn't wear the tie so I could still relate. guys. You're looking good. I like the tan suit. You look like you came right off the set. But I thought, like, I wouldn't wear the tie, so I could still relate.
Okay.
You know?
Yeah, like, if you had the tie, you're going to walk in and be like, loser.
Yeah, yeah.
Pop the tie off.
You're cool now.
I think you guys would get intimidated by me.
I took the tie off because I was like, I'm an everyman now.
You are, dude.
You absolutely are.
That's actually what we want to talk to you about today.
We want to present you with something.
We want to... Yeah? We're presenting you with multiple things. Yeah, you get a what?. We want to present you with something.
We want to... We're presenting you with multiple things.
Yeah, you're getting a lot.
Before that, we'll start with a...
A present?
Yes, we actually do have a present.
Nice.
Doing our research, you know, as we're esteemed journalists.
Professionals.
Saw your Instagram.
You got a gift bag last night, and I thought it was kind of bullshit how every time we
have a guest come, we don't give them a gift bag.
So we don't have the promotional stuff that Colbert probably has, but we got you a gift bag here.
It's the Barstool Sports gift bag.
This is going to be great.
And this is the first ever, so nobody else has ever gotten a gift bag from us.
Thank you, guys.
Yeah, you should get a sticker out of it.
You can just take a look at some of the items there.
This is a lady with a beard.
Is that a lady?
I thought it looked kind of Charles Manson-esque.
I didn't go so far as to add the
swastika.
So you have a Charles Manson-esque.
You stopped at the swastika?
I thought it was a cross at first,
so I looked it up and I was like, oh no, it's a swastika. We're going to bail on that one.
And this is
like three quarters
or like one quarter
of a bottle of what looks
like to be some really nice wine.
You can tell it's very old, too, because there's like some condensation up here.
Oh, it's at least a year.
So it's aged properly.
I was going to say, if you're in the wine industry, we call it aged.
It's a fine wine.
This is Chipotle Tabasco.
Have you had the smoky Chipotle?
It's incredible.
It can't be good.
It's fantastic, sir.
Come on.
There's a reason why I stole it.
And these are probably one of somebody's shoes here.
Do we only put one in there?
They're brand new.
I gave them both.
There's both.
A pair of Adidas.
They were made by robots.
They're fresh.
They're new.
Okay.
All right.
I can have them?
Those came from Dirk.
That actually is promotional.
That's promotional.
Dirk sent those to us, and I figured who better to dispose of them.
Tropical condoms.
That's awesome. Whoa, whoa, whoa. This is good. What is promotional. Derek sent those to us, and I figured who better to dispose of them. Tropical condoms. That's awesome.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
This is good.
What is this, weed?
No.
We'll do that later, bro.
It's hot in New York.
You got to suit up.
Cooling, cleansing wipes.
You guys literally just went through the office and just raked a bunch of stuff.
Oh, promotional stuff.
Oh, yeah.
GNC vitamins.
Everybody needs some vitamins.
That's good.
And a bunch of t-shirts.
Yeah, those are actually good t-shirts.
I know you're a Weymouth boy
So they're two
Two
Patriots
Red Sox t-shirts
Oh my god yeah
So I mean
Nothing but the best for you baby
Yeah
I don't know what Colbert thinks he's got
You probably got like a hundred thousand dollar Rolex
From Colbert or something like that
No Colbert
All gift bags are garbage
Yeah
They're absolute
That one's literal garbage
He actually gave you a bag of garbage
Shit
This might be alive
Well the gift bag culture I think is a funny one
When you know
I think it was a couple years ago
When the Oscars bag was really like a
A big deal
Like everyone knew it was in it
And it really was like a hundred thousand dollars worth of stuff
You know like Tiffany's jewelry and stuff
Yeah
And Hollywood like kind of wonders why sometimes people are like uh the hollywood
elite doesn't it like can't relate it's like because yeah you went to a party and got a
hundred grand worth of shit well i'm not gonna knock that hell no you want to throw me as a
plus one to the next oscars emmys whatever it is you people in suits with no ties go to you don't
want to go to those things come on you do not want to go you say that because you're going all of
them now i want to go to a couple i go to. You do not want to go. You say that because you're going to all of them now. No, I don't go to all of them.
I go to the ones where I have a chance I'm going to win something, which is very rare.
But no, the Emmys were the worst because, I mean the worst.
It's very cool to get an award.
But they're like eight hours long and you're, you know, you just, you wish you had brought a book.
Oh, man, they must be really bad.
I'd rather read.
It's so boring.
I can tell you the amount of times on one hand I've said,
I wish I had a book with me right now.
Yeah, this is it.
You'd be a bookworm.
Yeah, I mean, I feel like if you're racking them up and you're winning,
you know, maybe they're enjoyable. It's winning maybe they're enjoyable It's shitty to lose too
It's the worst
They do the five screens
and you see everyone and they're always like
Oh good, that's what I thought
On the inside you're like, fuck you
Or you're just like, the rest of the night
is ruined
It's a much better after party when you have an Emmy on your table.
I believe it.
It's way better.
Has anybody ever really been openly like,
God damn it, I deserve that one?
I feel like everybody plays.
Kanye West.
He just has to.
Yeah, right.
He did it for someone else.
And he wasn't even nominated.
Yeah.
I see it all the time, too, on Wheel of Fortune.
Someone else wins the puzzle.
And they're like, oh, great job.
It's like, no, you're not going to go to the bonus round now, man.
You guys, that's such an athlete mentality, though, right?
Yeah, they get a little competitive with it.
Yeah, yeah.
You have basketball players, grown basketball players,
crying in the middle of the court because they lost.
We've seen that, too, just this year with Ben Simmons and Donovan Mitchell.
Donovan Mitchell was bringing him down.
He's not a real rookie.
I'm the rookie of the year.
Yeah, they got a little sassy with it.
That's great.
You don't find that a lot in the Hollywood world.
We need a little more of that.
It's not as real in Hollywood.
Well, you very much keep it real.
And I feel like Ballers and Hot Tub Time Machine and these type of shows are really what...
And movies.
And movies.
Are what the fans and viewers
like. That's what it's all about
to me.
Yeah, they're not like
head scratchers. They're not like Thinking Man's
material.
It's not like a knock on it either.
I agree.
There's a common denominator
to it. I love doing
stuff like that too. We don't exactly do thinking man stuff around here.
Why bother, man?
It's so much harder.
And God, it's stupid.
It's stupid.
And that's what we're doing today is we're going to present you with the People's Oscar.
The People's Choice, the People's Oscar for the-
I accept.
Yes.
On behalf of Arsenal Sports, we present Rob Corddry.
I'd like to thank my agent, my lawyer, my wife, my dear wife, of course.
I almost forgot her.
Third one.
I almost forgot her.
In the doghouse for a fake award show on a dumb podcast.
His wife's going to be like, did you really thank me third on the fake award on KC Radio?
But yeah, I mean, it's like Ballers is, when it first came out, we were always kind of
talking about how it is the entourage of sports.
Entourage is
beloved for a reason. Ballers is beloved
for a reason.
It's sports mixed with partying, mixed with
drama, humor. Yeah, it's fun.
It's good cameos, too.
And you guys being in the sports world,
it's written specifically for
you. You knocked it out of the park, let me tell you.
Right.
But it is weird, though, how odd the fans are sometimes.
Like Senator Elizabeth Warren, it's her favorite show.
Really?
I would not have seen that coming.
No.
On the first page of her new book, it says she loves bollards.
Come on.
Wow.
It's crazy.
And I actually had the opportunity to ask her why.
And she's like the fiscal policy senator.
So she was like, it's just different people at stages of their careers and having made money and having lost money or just made money for the first time.
And it really made sense to me.
I was going to say, that makes a lot of sense.
I was like, I'll see why you would like this show.
Is that what it's about?
Because I had no idea.
It is a thinking man show.
I guess so.
Lizzie Warren, who knew?
The good senator from Massachusetts.
It doesn't hurt that you are basically partners in crime with The Rock.
I feel like Dwayne...
It never hurts.
Never hurts, man.
If you're going to hit your wagon to somebody right now, I feel like he's the guy.
Yeah, I would say for anybody to give advice to anybody that's trying to get into show
business, I would say try and do a show with The Rock.
What's the secret?
Work with Dwayne Johnson every time he does something.
Just try and do as many shows with him as possible, and you'll make it.
He really will.
I mean, he is, everything
he touches. I've always
heard, you know. I saw Skyscraper this weekend, by the way.
Everything I wanted to know.
Rampage is an American classic.
I mean, that is. I just watched it on a plane.
The earthquake one.
Was it called Earthquake? San Andreas.
San Andreas. It probably should be called
Earthquake, like Dinosaur
and Skyscraper. It should be called Rob Corddry Candy.
Practically licking the screen.
Dude, that's my guy.
I always get shit because I like movies like that.
People kind of give me the business sometimes.
It's incredibly entertaining for an hour and a half.
That is what I need in this world.
Of course.
I'm looking forward to seeing the new Mission Impossible.
Saw that.
Fantastic.
I can't imagine it's any different from the former Mission Impossibles.
How is he ever going to get this mission done?
This mission seems impossible.
But, like, it's just that those kind of movies, like, oh, no, the most recent Mad Max.
See, I didn't like that.
I loved it because it was, like, nonstop.
Stop.
Right when you think, they didn't give you
any time to breathe.
That was too much for me.
I need the Fast and Furious. I need the family connection.
I need the Coronas.
I need a little love interest.
I need that.
You need a B-story too.
This was just all A-story.
Right, exactly.
I get a lot of shit for that too, thinking I'm an action movie guy who doesn't like mad max that is great you
do deserve he's got life i deserve almost he's got layers you are an onion man i think hot tub
time machine is kind of one of those movies though where you know people obviously it's a
preposterous uh plot and makes no goddamn sense yet it don't know what you're talking about. What do you mean? It's a true story, I thought, right?
But, you know, I think that is one of the more, like, cult classic,
beloved type of, if it's on TNT or TBS or FX, you always leave it on.
That's great.
Enough to run it backwards.
Is there going to be, like, a third?
I feel like you could make nine of those things.
Just keep going.
Fast and Furious style.
Seeing as, though, like, Hot Tub 2, I think only you guys and my dad saw it.
No way. Really? Yeah. Not a lot of people. I'll solve your problem. Hot Tub 2, I think only you guys and my dad saw it. No way.
Really?
Yeah.
Not a lot of people.
I'll solve your problem.
Hot Tub 3 featuring The Rock.
That'll do it.
That'll do it.
We always joke about wanting to do Hot Tub 3 when we're like 50 or 60 years old.
Actually, I'm almost 50, so I can't even say that anymore.
65, 70.
It'll be like the Wild Hogs.
That's exactly what I was going to say, or the one Morgan Freeman did in Vegas.
There you go.
Las Vegas.
Going out in style.
Old men rob a casino.
So you kind of talked about how you don't like to do the thinking man,
you like the shows you do.
But I was reading your Wikipedia again, doing research, whatever.
No big deal.
You said you credit Jon Stewart a lot for kind of teaching you how to take stuff, not seriously, but how to find the humor in more difficult things.
Yeah, and it's not like a formula either.
It's nothing I can really describe in a satisfying way.
It's more like just watching him work was the best
tutorial
for writing a joke.
You know? Okay. But he wouldn't
explain it to you. You just kind of...
I don't know if he'd know how to explain it either.
I think it's one of those things like, you know, Michael Jordan
can't tell you how to play basketball. He just kind of
does it. You can give him tips and stuff, but he can't
explain. At the beginning,
when you're first learning, you'd be like, well, what would John do at
this point?
What would John's take be?
And then eventually, it's just your take, whatever you're coming up with.
But it's more, I don't know, he gave me confidence, I think.
I didn't have to be the smartest guy in the room.
Everybody has a take, and your take is just as valuable as anybody else's.
That's interesting because we just had Tony Rock in here yesterday,
and he was talking about how when he does stand-up sets at the Comedy Cellar
and stuff like that, they have the OG comics table,
and he says he goes and stands over there and doesn't say anything
because he doesn't want to look dumb.
It's almost the opposite.
We're like, your take is worthless.
It's not theirs.
My take sucks.
That's the hardest table. That's the hardest
crowd in the world.
Older comedians.
Colin Quinn, David Tell.
Forget it.
Don't even open your mouth. Just laugh.
Don't be a jerk.
Working with The Rock is everything it seems to be.
I mean, I think you want it to be.
Give me like a bad story.
Everyone's always like, no, even off camera, he's just as nice.
I'm like, come on.
He came on to set one day wearing like a Make America Great again.
There's got to be some story.
The Rock's not as cool.
A swastika tattoo.
That's what he's really covering up under the Romaville.
Yeah, I mean, I wish I had something good for you.
The worst thing I could say about the dude was that he was tired one day.
I was like, and it was really weird.
Because he does get up like 4 a.m. to lift.
No, it was very strange.
But then again, it was the night after the Oscars.
I was in Miami shooting.
It was Sunday night.
I was watching the Oscars. And I had to get to work at 6 o'clock the next day,
so I watched half of it.
But right before I shot off the TV, Dwayne is on the TV.
He's at the Oscars.
And I was like, motherfucker, you've got to be at work in eight hours.
How are you doing this?
And he was there.
He was there.
And he was a little bit sleepy, and everyone was like, what the hell?
He was a little sleepy.
It's annoying following him because he's like your friend from college who didn't get hangovers.
Where like he'll have a post at like 2 a.m.
And he'll be like, I love tequila.
And then it'll be four hours later, he's like squat deadlifted like 8,000 pounds.
Dude, that is so funny. That was the crystallization of my character on Ballers.
I said, this is that guy in your group of friends who can go all weekend and then still go to work on Monday and not even maybe be a little glassy-eyed.
But he's fine.
That was the first thing I realized about my character was he doesn't get hung over.
That's so funny.
What a superpower.
Oh, it's the best.
Pick one.
It's the best.
One day there'll be a story about a rock.
You know what?
I know why you're doing this.
I don't know.
I know what you're doing here.
You're just keeping it quiet because you're going to be the vice president on his ticket
when he runs for president.
I get it.
I see what's going on here.
It's all political angling.
It's going to be Dwayne Robb 2020 or whatever.
I loved watching that story, like, shoot out of control immediately.
Real fast.
Oh, man.
Was he ever laughing about that?
What?
Would he get your vote?
No.
No, no, no.
No, not in a million years.
Smart.
Smart.
No, come on.
Haven't we learned our lesson?
I'm voting for the Washington Insider.
Yeah.
We tried this already.
It didn't really go great.
We need something different.
Well, we haven't burned everything down yet, so I think it's working just fine.
Yeah, no, forget it.
No, no, no.
The Oprah, the rock, go to hell.
All right, well, I know you're a busy man.
They're telling us to wrap up here.
But I do want to say that I think the best part of Ballers,
it's a fantastic show.
The writing's great.
You guys are great.
The best part of Ballers is the opening theme for the first about 60 seconds.
When they play Drake and Little Wayne right above it, it is just Game of Thrones.
You know what?
Your favorite character had just died, and then it's like, I'm so sad.
You need a Game of Thrones bomb.
Kane is in the building.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yes!
I like my chicks in threes.
Yeah, there it is.
It's like that to me, it's like, okay, maybe I'll watch another show.
Maybe I won't, but that was awesome.
It's a pretty good show.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, man.
We thank you for coming through.
Thanks for having me.
It was fun. Keep making us laugh and keep doing those. The People yeah, yeah. All right, man. We thank you for coming through. Oh, thanks for having me. It was fun.
Keep making us laugh and keep doing those.
The People's Oscars.
Keep them coming.
I'm just all about the people.
There you go.
All right.
Thank you, dude.
