Starting point is 00:00:00 Jake's pick, Backstage Pass to the Flipside, Conversations with Bill Paxton. The show I selected for today is called Backstage Pass to the Flipside, Conversations with Bill Paxton, purported to be a documentary. Upon seeing the title, my heart sank a little. I thought perhaps someone had gotten a spiritually pilled interview with one of my favorite actors before his passing in 2017. To my relief, upon starting to watch, these were a series of interviews conducted with Bill Baxter after he had died.
Starting point is 00:00:35 What the fuck? Throughout the hour and a half long film, director Richard Martini. That's his name. It's his real name. What? What? What a great thing? film noir name. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:01:06 I see your mind as fared as well as mine. Oh, mine is so gone. I was watching this on my computer. I had like, you know, headphones in. And man, Julian, if you are sick of talking head interviews and yours, well, just wait. Yes, so in this movie, director Richard Martini interviews Bill through a variety of mediums. The entire thing is comprised of one talking head after another, often in loud public spaces where the sound is catastrophically bad. I looked up this Richard Martini to see
Starting point is 00:01:42 what I could find out about it. According to his IMDB, he is a actor, writer, and director. Always, always. And actually has some real credits. He wrote and directed a Bridget Fonda movie in 1988 called You Can't Hurry Love and has acted in projects such as Lever. and Shirley, and a background part in Salt, starring Angelina Jolie, the action spy film that came out a while back. He claims to have met Bill Paxton in a pub in London, and the two became lifelong friends. However, over the course of the film, I kind of get the sense that this might not have been the case.
Starting point is 00:02:19 Oh, my God. Imagine you're like Bill Paxton's loved ones trying to watch this shit. I mean, Christ. Just wait. Martini has a YouTube channel titled The Martini. Zone. It's right next to the Cabo Wabo. Yeah, that's just misleading.
Starting point is 00:02:37 I mean, it feels like people would go there thinking they'd get tips on how to prepare cocktails or something. Yeah. The channel has over 7,000 subscribers. I didn't see any overt right-wing content on there. He appears to be mostly into extraterrestrials. There's a tribute to Billy Meyer on his channel from 2015. He also has a lot of videos in a series called Hacking the Afterlife.
Starting point is 00:03:00 where Richard and various mediums try to shed some light on what happens to us after we die. Upon further investigation, it does seem like he's somewhat connected in the Hollywood circles. There's a video he uploaded speaking to Jack Nicholson at a friend's wedding. Truth is beauty of beauty, truth. We live in a sex-negative culture. Because of this, we withhold an heart in the middle, and the father is replaced by the television set in the home. before which, even someone like me or the president,
Starting point is 00:03:37 they just tell them to stop when it's time to sell the old iPana. Now, generationally, even early television understands that iPana is a cleansing agent for the teeth. The last time they sold a yellow toothpaste. I admired the company just for that. So, super bizarre.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Jack Nicholson is so fucked up in that. Oh, yeah. He's so drunk. He's like losing his fucking train of thought. This man is a weird pervert. This was in 2013. He was already fucking gone. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Oh, yeah. That video should be going around cute on circles. So, Martini also has clips of his various, you know, old acting roles and appearances on late night television. Here's a little clip of him on the Charles Grotin show. He's the dad from Beethoven, if you'll remember. Of course. Telling a story of getting mobbed by a Saudi Arabian soccer team
Starting point is 00:04:34 after his referee friend declared that they had lost the match. As we're walking out, up to his car, we go by the Saudi bus. And the coach of the Saudi team sees Josh standing out there and just erupts. It runs off the bus. And the whole team all come off the bus and they're running at us and screaming at us in Arabic. Coming at Josh and me and Drew were walking to our car in the parking lot. We all, like, you know, what do you do? They're screaming in an Arabic.
Starting point is 00:05:01 Right. So I happen to know one word in Arabic. So I turn to the team and say, Mishkweiss, which that's basically what they did. They all stood there, shocked. You know, the air went out of the lungs. What does Mishkwise mean? It means inappropriate behavior.
Starting point is 00:05:19 Okay, so what? We're kind of on a tangent here, but you can see Richard Martini. He's got a piano key tie on. It gives you a little bit of a sense. But the funniest thing is, is that Jerry Seinfeld was the next guest on the show that night, and he's pissed off that this guy went before him. Watch this. With me now is Jerry Seinfeld, co-creator, producer, and star the Emmy Award-winning comedy series Seinfeld. Now in its seventh season on NBC, Jerry has also received critical acclaim as a stand-up comic and bestselling author, and is considering a run on the independent ticket for the presidency.
Starting point is 00:05:58 of the United States. Would you consider running for president if nobody like emerges from the pack? Why is that guy on in front of me? Richard Martini? That's number one. That's, that's Mishkweiss as far as I'm concerned. It's so amazing
Starting point is 00:06:12 that we've stumbled upon this weird thing. I love that Seinfeld watched Richard Martini on the show. What the fuck is this guy? The first thing he says, he's like, why is that guy on before me? That's his number one question. Before we get to these, why I'm here. Who the fuck was that?
Starting point is 00:06:31 So as a result of Seinfeld's complaint, Martini claims that he was banned from ever appearing on the Charles Brodin show ever again, which is not Martini's fault, let's be honest. No, no, no. So, on to the documentary. God. The film opens with a
Starting point is 00:06:46 behind-the-camera martini asking questions to Jennifer Schaefer. Schaefer is a spiritual medium and has had recurring appearances on both Dr. Phil and the Ricky Lake show. She is also the co-star of Richard Martini's Hacking the Afterlife podcast and YouTube show. After asking Bill Paxton to come forth out of the ether, Martini opens with some basic questions that I think most people who are curious about the afterlife might ask.
