The Bonfire with Big Jay Oakerson and Robert Kelly - Backstabbing Brother

Episode Date: August 28, 2026

Dane Cook has one hell of an intriguing documentary coming out about how his brother embezzled $12 million from him. It's called "Funny Money" and Bobby Kelly is not in it, but he should have been. ...Bob was right in the middle of Dane's rise to fame when this all happened in the mid 2000's. He knew Dane's brother and didn't trust him from the start. Bob was around the family, including the cousin who became an FBI informant to help Dane bring down his brother Darryl. Bobby was there for so many events in this doc and knows the dramatic conclusion to this sadly fascinating tale.

Starting point is 00:00:01 And now, the bonfire with Big J. O'Kerson and Robert Kelly. Well, while you were distracting Dane telling him this fucking song was fantastic. His brother was fleecing him. I didn't say it was fantastic. I just said, play it again, man. You said you did it. He did do it. He wrote a song and recorded it.
Starting point is 00:00:27 That's not what you meant. That's what I said. I mean, in a corner. but I'm standing still. In a court of law. That's not how you meant for him to take it. You don't know my tone. I said, you did it.
Starting point is 00:00:38 And he wrote a song and recorded it. Dude? You did it. And then I said, play it again. I just want to make sure I heard that right. Listen, out of all the comic songs, I've never seen... This is one of them?
Starting point is 00:00:55 I've never seen everybody in the studio look at me with disgust at the same time. I thought he was waiting for your last net. You just didn't finish the sentence. We were all leaned in. Yeah, what other comics have songs? Eddie Murphy? What?
Starting point is 00:01:05 You're talking about Eddie Murphy? Eddie Murphy is the best one. Yeah. It's a lot of comics have songs. That's two. Dice Clay as a singer is far more talented than this. Dice sang. Somebody else sang, too.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Josh Adam Myers, if we don't say that, he will be swinging from a fucking news later. Who is the other one? There's another one, too. No, we can't talk about. We're not talking about music. comedians exactly that can't that doesn't make any sense right we're not counting we're not counting Josh even because Josh sings all over his comedy Dan Cook had nothing to do with singing um you didn't tour with him what do you mean I mean I was there when he picked up his
Starting point is 00:01:49 first stratocaster on stage now before yeah before we started man I remember when he got his first guitar yeah yeah but what did he do with it he started playing man started where pouring out in his living room and he meant the songs he wrote songs that he from his heart i mean that you you don't feel that this wasn't written in that little dingy play this he was famous when he did this yeah but this this was he started this at a long time oh you say he had uncrumple piece of paper from eighth grade for this yeah dude that would make a lot of sense i found a his notebook i'm blind but i can find the sea it's i'm all so deaf and yet i can't here
Starting point is 00:02:33 there tank there goes El Delman knee And where the hell It's Bobby Kelly And Bobby Kelly
Starting point is 00:02:50 And Bobby Kelly Um Please give me a taste To this fucking trailer Because I did watch it Sounds like a very interesting documentary I very much want
Starting point is 00:03:02 watch it. It's a crazy story for real. You guys. But realizing the first time I saw Al Del Benny, I was like, well, I know Bobby's that in this. That would have come up in our conversations. So Bobbi's, yeah, so I'm like, so Al Dalvedi's in I go, this fucking sucks, dude. How funny it would it be if I made up with them years ago
Starting point is 00:03:20 and I never told you? And I just showed up in the documentary. But like it's me from like a week ago. I hope it's all your vacations are not with your family. They're with Dane surfing. They're all bro weekends. I left show for Dane. Sorry, show. Vacase for the boys.
Starting point is 00:03:38 What is it called again? Show. It's a, we call this show show. It's like we personify the show itself. Yeah, show. This is called, yeah, funny money. What happened? What have you done?
Starting point is 00:03:59 A person that spent so much time pretending to be something he wasn't. From the moment he left that bank, my brother disappeared. He was like, yeah, I want to be a stand-up comedian. I was like, I want to be a stand-up comedian. These people are fearless. Stop, stop real quick. That was Al. I think I was edited out of the, I think I was on the other side of that.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Dude, you weren't even a monkey. You weren't even one of the monkeys. I just want to say, sorry to Dan, the editing he had to do to keep me out of this. Right here. You're in this little. Right there, I think I, I think I filmed that. Maybe I filmed that. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:04:44 They didn't want you in front of the camera. Yeah. But they were just talking about the two of them wanted to be comedians together. By the way, this is how I felt. This is when Kevin went on Howard Stern. And he just kept like, he was like telling story of sort of about Keith and stuff and driving to New York and what he used to over in New York all the time. And this black show we did.
Starting point is 00:05:07 And it was always like, I'm just sitting. right. It's like if Howard could see the story you'd see he'd go, who's that guy sitting next to you? Who's the guy driving? Who's the guy driving? He's shuffering you around like that. That would have been so I know this feeling because this is a real like, you're like, did you go
Starting point is 00:05:22 out of your way to make sure I'm not mad? Yeah, Howard's Stern Borderline when he goes and did any other comics do this with you? He goes, no. I did it alone. You were right there. Me and Keith Robinson only. And some white driver.
Starting point is 00:05:37 This has hit me. I'm seeing stuff that I didn't see the first time I watched it. God damn it. Go back. I want Bobby to be a little hurt from earlier. Yeah, yeah. From the moment he left that bank, my brother disappeared. Does this kill you, Bobby?
Starting point is 00:05:55 Because you could have stole his money, probably? I want to be a stand-up comedian. I was like, I want to be a stand-up comedian. These people are fearless. I want to be fearless. Daryl was a major factor. Man, I hate it. Comedians describing comedy so much.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I just saw them. I saw it up there and it was like watching gods do what they do. I wish that tape that he has, that little club with the shitty painting in the back. I quit comedy that night. Nice. He actually talked to me. I was outside. I was like, I'm done.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Fuck this. Because I bombed so bad in front of him. Yeah. That I was outside just smoking and fuck this and fight. And he was like, dude, you got to be. me this pep talk that kept me going but I did a joke that I thought was brilliant you remember the what was the ice the blind ice skater remember that movie back in the day she was a blind ice skater it was um it was like this movie of the week remember what these had movies

Starting point is 00:08:40 It's almost stuck. Time's money. Once he starts there, he was probably to be a beach. That was in Kabul. He was like a wrong star. I was on that show. I was on that show. I looked at each other and said, we're in for a hell of a ride. Who's that?
Starting point is 00:08:53 That's, uh, that's, uh, his brother's wife. Who went to prison too? For this. Yeah. You'll see. Watch this. I'd like to go through it and explain the. Please.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Bobby, let me guess you're probably here. You're probably pouring Dana drink on the other side of this someone. I'm on stage. I'm on stage right now. Okay. So I go up and then Dane comes out. Right. You just have to go up there and introduce Dane?
Starting point is 00:09:17 No, I went up to sit my time. You didn't do the bit, though. You said before, did you? No, I actually let go of that bit that night. Good. I might bring it back, though. You should. I should.

Starting point is 00:09:44 I'll you know you know bravo Bravo that was amazing oh shit I'm sorry excuse me pardon me pardon me
Starting point is 00:09:51 it might become your new clothes apologies damn look how cool you looked dude come on let me tell you something you see all these guys doing the arenas now and they're just walking out
Starting point is 00:10:01 you know kind of almost ashamed or embarrassed or humbled you looked around in a weird time Lou this wasn't the cool part we were talking about the uh given video. When Dane walks out of and through the crowd,
Starting point is 00:10:13 he fucking rock and roll it. He's walking out with a high five and that. I know he he did too. He was smart. He kept his high fives right here. He just got you as he was coming down the house. So he never had his shirt go goofy looking on him rather than just kept it right. His shirt stayed
Starting point is 00:10:29 just like it looked on a hanger. He was never like some guys just walk out kind of head down and get to, he was like he had a bounce that he did like almost like a dance. The Dane Cook dance as he's like a skip as he's walking out and then he'd get to the stage and that skip would, and then he'd skip out to the front
Starting point is 00:10:45 and just, he would look up. He knew how to fucking rock star comedy. Yeah. You know? Absolutely. You got to give it to him. I do. I want you two kids to get together. Oh, he fist-bumped him. Oh, that was after our prayer. Initially, withdrawals for $20,000.
Starting point is 00:11:05 He came withdrawals of $50,000. Okay. wires of a hundred thousand dollars i was starting to feel something that i couldn't really identify was he hiding it in different places stockpiling this money darrow's traveling across the country my pursuit would be to put his brother in jail i'll del bang why are you doing this to me swung the door who's that that's dane that's dane that's dane calling his brother to leave messages no that's dane playing messages yeah playing messages he taught one from his brother wait wait it's for it's That's him saying.
Starting point is 00:11:39 It's from the brother. Is that Dane talking on the message or is it the brother talking? I think it's his brother calling Dane. Because he's saying, why would you do this to me? Yeah, these are old messages. Why would he say why would you do this to me? This is evidence that he saved because once he knew, I think, something was going, everything was evidence. But you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:11:58 Listen to the context to what the guy on the phone is saying. I think Dane called the FBI. Here's what happened. And that's what it is. It's like, why are you doing this to him? Here's what happened. His brother. did his merch.
Starting point is 00:12:09 Thank God save me watching this documentary. Bobby, please. When he was doing colleges, he had, you know, huge in colleges. But those are still only, you know, 3,000, 5,000 people at a college that would show up. And they would actually sell tickets to Dane shows. Students would get a discount, but other people can go. But he had the merch line was always Dane's thing. Dane's merch line was longer than the show.
Starting point is 00:12:33 So his brother would show up with all his merch and set up the table and take up. and take the money and do all the stuff. And then, when Dane popped after that, like after Torgasm was, we were doing colleges. It was just College Dane, right? He popped after that. He was still doing his merch stuff
Starting point is 00:12:55 and taking care of his money. Still taking care of his money. So his money went from thousands, right, which is a lot, to millions, very fast. And his brother was getting paid. He had a job. He got a commission for merch. something right brother was getting paid a certain amount every year and i i believe same thing you
Starting point is 00:13:14 were getting paid this is what i'm worth it um his brother was getting paid a certain amount and then he asked for more money and dain had said no and then dane because he's making millions now went from you know college money merch money to millions uh you know his management like dude you can't have your brother handle this anymore. There's companies. Like you have a money management company. So he had called his brother and said, hey man, I'm going to move this company.
Starting point is 00:13:45 You're still going to get paid the same. But you're just going to do what you do, but you're not taking care of the money. I got to go with this company because I'm making too much money. I'm making movies and all this stuff. And his brother was like, no. And he's like, what are you talking? What do you mean no? He's like,
Starting point is 00:14:03 those people will rob you. they're this they're criminals they're shady i've looked into them blah blah blah and his brother was like i we're going to have a meeting this week and i remember dane's screaming just screaming and yelling he came back down he's like he was mad that his brother was telling him what to do because i heard him go i'm the fucking boss you don't fucking tell him you don't set up a meeting for me i set the fucking meetings up dame said that dame was mad that his brother just set up a meeting and said no and it's like, dude, what the fuck? He goes, I'm coming out there next week,
Starting point is 00:14:35 and we're going to have a meeting. I have all the stuff. I want to prove to these guys. Like, he had evidence, right? And Dane was like, fuck you. You don't, I'm the boss type shit. And he came down. He goes, I don't understand it.
Starting point is 00:14:47 He doesn't want to, he's telling me they're criminals. He has all this stuff, and he set up a fucking meeting. Like, he sets meetings up. And that's when I was like, dude, that's some shady shit. Something's up. And I was like, You know, it Bobby blew the case wide open. Well, he stopped, and he was like, what the fuck's going on?
Starting point is 00:15:06 And then he, I don't know, you know, Barry and them and his team at the time, Volkweiss and Barry, they were like, dude, we got to check this out. And then they found out that money was missing. And then they called the FBI right away. And the FBI got involved. But his brother, from that phone call and this thing here, like, what are you doing? As soon as he found out the FBI was involved, he rented a car and drove.
Starting point is 00:15:33 He didn't fly to L.A. He drove, but he made a pit stop in Puerto Rico, where his ex-wife lived. So he went to Puerto Rico, came back up and drove, and then he was driving to L.A. He put a bunch of money in Puerto Rico. Don't know. I mean, you have to, I mean.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Well, I do say something, it sounds like a movie. It's like there was money in fucking spaghetti cans. But he made a bunch. Well, that's, that gets crazy. easier because he made all these stops on the way. So he went to Puerto Rico and then when he's driving, he's stopping, right? So it might be some Shawshank redemption type shit, some cancer. Buried in the fucking desert. So he winds up getting arrested, right? Now his wife is free. And don't forget they have a son, Dane's nephew, which is sad as shit. So they have a cousin, Kevin, who lives in Florida.
Starting point is 00:16:26 I used to go to Florida all the time and his cousin would show up. And he had restaurants. He had these, all these restaurants were popping up. He had, like, one, then he had two. Then, I think he had three. And he would invite me. Dude, come down to the restaurant on me, and I would go. Tell Dan, how good his own restaurant is.
Starting point is 00:16:43 I didn't know this, but it was him and Daryl. It wasn't Dane. It was him and Dary. No, I don't know. I was the joke. No, I know. Yeah, I assume it was like, he was tell Dane, he's a one-part owner of this. So, yeah, well, Kevin, Kevin didn't know.
Starting point is 00:16:58 But it's all with, with, with Dane's money. Kevin didn't know shit. Kevin just thought, okay, Daryl's making money. Dane's making, he's making some of it, so he's investing in these restaurants. And the restaurants were fucking awesome, by the way. They were great like fish restaurants and I would go all the time, hang out with Kevin. And every time I played Florida on the East Coast, was at Palm Beach, Kevin would come to the show and I would go to eat at the restaurant. And so what happened? They found out about the money that he stole for the restaurant was Dane's money. So the FBI got in touch with Kevin and Kevin wore a wire and talked because they thought
Starting point is 00:17:37 the wife was in on it and had more money. So he actually got her on the phone or something like that and started talking and they found out that she did have money. So they found out they had hundreds of thousands of dollars hidden in she froze it in sauce and put it in the freezer, Like stacks of cash in Tupperware, in a sauce, froze it, in the vacuum cleaner, in the wall, hundreds of thousands of dollars. So she wanted to. They found some. Well, Kevin was the informant for Dane to get the wife, too. So she went to prison.
Starting point is 00:18:16 And that's just some chick who was married to the brother. That's not like a family member. No, no, no, no, no. They were family. Like, she was, they were family, man. That was Dane's nephew. That was his brother. We were in Cabo and we're all doing this big tour,
Starting point is 00:18:30 and he took us all to Cabo, and we're sitting there with Darrell. Doing Coke. And, no, no Coke. That was the one where Jamie Massada, Jamie Misada was there, and he got us all. He got us all. Liver spots?
Starting point is 00:18:47 He got us all laugh factory swim trunks. But they weren't swim trunks. They were white boxer shorts with the laugh factory logo on it. So you can see your dicks throw them When you got out of the water? As soon as we got out, you just see our patches. Your fur? Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:19:00 We were just like this. You can't wait. You're beavers right above your fucking dumb dicks. It was me, Gary Goldman, and Jay Davis just a bush fat sticking out of a wet long hair. It looks like the drawing of Danny Zuko when he first wakes up in the grease video. But he told me. It's just a hunker coming out of a fucking shag hair. He told me, he was like, dude, you got to have my brother to handle your money, dude.
Starting point is 00:19:21 He does all my money. You should definitely, whatever you're making now, you're making more money. have my brother, he'll take care of your money. He knows how to do it and how to make more money. And I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I remember talking to Gary like, I would never fucking give that guy my money ever. I would never give that.
Starting point is 00:19:37 I just... Why? Because I have that fucking spidey sense about people. You can tell. This guy was a low-down piece of shit from the time you met him. The end of Torgasm, we were supposed to get... We're all splitting up all the merch
Starting point is 00:19:51 because we did the line every night, which was like three to four hours a night. we were supposed to get equal percentage of the merch money and I'm on the bus in Boston last show they came up with some weird check I'm like what the fuck is that Even shirts that said just like Dane Cook or the Superfinger you also get some of that
Starting point is 00:20:09 We signed them We're in the line we get equal money That's good, that's fair He came in and gave me a check And I was like dude I was in line For three to four hours a night selling posters and t-shirts There's no way that the
Starting point is 00:20:24 He goes well there's you know there's well we still have some t-shirts left so when we i go no no no no no i go fuck you he's like will you traveling merchants shut up and just wait till i pay you i was like dude pay me my pay me the money i'm not waiting around for you to sell shirts off whenever how the fuck am i know so we had to recut a check and give me my money and gary and j our money that night so there was always some shady shit with that guy you know but i mean yeah this guy so So he went to jail, she went to jail. I felt bad for the nephew.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Why? Send him to jail. No, the kid had no parents. Dude, both parents were in jail, and where is he going? Well, he's going to be a piece of shit anywhere. Uncle Dane. No, he didn't go to Uncle Dane. He should go live with Dane in the hills.
Starting point is 00:21:11 No. Why? He could play with his wife. At the time, they probably could. They might have went to school together. How old was the nephew when this all went down? He was a young kid, man. He was...
Starting point is 00:21:26 Really? Yeah, maybe... But I hope old enough to see his parents get dragged off to prison and have it affect him forever. He was old enough for that. I thought... I thought you want to finish it. There's something in here where... I do want to finish it.
Starting point is 00:21:35 There's something in here where I thought... They make it sound like he's still... Like, I was like, is he still fucking missing? Like, they never... No, he's out of jail. He is out. He's out. They make it seem like he's on the run or something.
Starting point is 00:21:46 They make it seem like he's on the run in this. No, he was on the run at the beginning. So when he found out the FBI was involved, he did a mad dashed down. and then back in and then made a bunch of stops. And I'll tell you. Bobby, you probably don't know this, but you got to have no attachments, nothing, that you cannot walk away from just like that if you feel that heat coming around the corner.
Starting point is 00:22:09 Are you willing to do that? That's the job. That was good, man. Wow. That was some acting. All right, yeah. My pursuit would be to put his brother in jail. What happened?
Starting point is 00:22:25 John, why are you doing this to me? Swung the door open and piles upon piles of cash. And I'm like, this is not normal. The last time I had seen it, there wasn't nearly as much money there. So she's blaming him more. She's like, I don't know about that. That's what it sounds like. You got to understand.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Dane would always say to me too, like, dude, I got, you know, I got money. Like, my brother has a, you know, stash. You know what I mean? Like, I got money. The sister-in-law is like the drummer from Motorhead. Kristen, can you please bring up the drummer? from motorhead? Filty animal.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Well, I wonder, that was the weird part because he had so much money in the bank, he had just did this massive tour. He did 25 arenas. He did Torgasm. He had HBO. He had his special.
Starting point is 00:23:14 You got to find the picture. You got to find the picture. He has bangs. He had like just good bangs at that point. So he knew in his head, you know, that your math, I know how much money I got paid. I signed the contract. This is what I should have, kind of.
Starting point is 00:23:32 And his brother went into a bank. I don't want to ruin the whole thing. You definitely should see this. But what his brother did at the end in Boston was fucking maniacal. Really? He told me they had video of it on the street. And if that's in the thing, it's maniacal. Well, I imagine he was just completely, like, losing his mind just in some sort of
Starting point is 00:23:53 survival mode of like how do I sustain but the stuff they found how long did he go to jail after like storage units full of stuff he had businesses full of stuff it was crazy what they found 10 years six five years five years that's how long the wife too uh I think she did two or three not as long wow hmm that's and they didn't recover all the money well you got you got to watch the documentary I don't want to ruin but I mean dude yeah they recover some of it but yeah he had a liquidate stuff they he bought stuff you know what I mean yeah yeah yeah yeah was fucking outrageous like cars and I mean that with those restaurants there's all kinds of business all kinds of stuff he bought and Dane I guess gets at least all the
Starting point is 00:24:40 money they recoup but yeah but it's like you think you you know Dane look at Dane is he lived at that time he's got to pay taxes on your stolen money being returned that would suck he he he still had a one-bedroom apartment in Hollywood. Who? Dane. When this happened? Yes. I thought this was, like, at his pretty big height. No, dude, this was when he had a one, he had a, look.
Starting point is 00:25:04 So tell me what's the space, this is vicious circle? This is, uh, yeah, this is, this is after, um, tourgasm, vicious circle, yep. And then he did that tour. Okay. And I believe that's the timeline, but he was still living, like, look, his apartment was sick. It was like a old building like, you know, almost like a castle or a mansion
Starting point is 00:25:27 and they divvied it up into apartments and his apartment was sick. But it was a one bedroom. He wasn't paying a crazy amount. Wait, 2008? He was arrested in 2008. He was arrested, but it went on. It went on. It was on for a little bit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Damn, man. And, yeah, play this. This is crazy. The police officers, they believe that you were communicating with Darrell with coded messages. There were bricks of hundreds And all the spaghetti sauce And the pasta sauce
Starting point is 00:25:59 Of course Where else would you put the money? This is blowing by mind, dude Daryl's a go-getter Was the point to just bury me alive? That's, I mean Also, Al's teeth are too white Well, Dane bought those
Starting point is 00:26:12 No I'm saying, but I'm saying He got him like too white Well, Dane Spares no expense You know, those are the whitest teeth back of the day That costs the same To get the right color That bothered me so much
Starting point is 00:26:24 because, you know, Dane, I guess Dane had, I mean, Al had really fucked up, like, shredded mini-wheat teeth. Nice. And then he, I was hanging out with Dan for a long time. Him and Al were, didn't talk. Al got back into his life. And then within six months,
Starting point is 00:26:42 Dane was like, dude, you need new teeth. And Al just went, all right. And he, fuck, 50 grand just gave him new teeth. But I, at that time, I was in shape. My teeth are great. I didn't need it. Maybe I could have got hair. I should have got something.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Yeah. You know what I mean? You got a dink wig. I could have got it. He bought you guys all wigs to look like him. I could have. Here's some wispy fucking Dane Cook hair. Good.
Starting point is 00:27:08 From the whole thing. There was a good part of him somewhere that I grew up with. I do believe that there's money out there. I believe there's people that know more. Where is he? What has he done? How does this end? Well, maybe he doesn't know where he's at.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Maybe when he got out. There's still some more, I think. No? Well, you want to hear my philosophy of it. So here you got this kid, worked in a pizza shop, did a couple plays. You're the older brother. You're the guy working. You're the motherfucker, right?
Starting point is 00:27:45 All of a sudden, you know, this is weird. Fame is weird. All of a sudden, your brother is doing colleges, and there's thousands of dollars coming in. And your brother's like, dude, help me, bro. The older brother was a performer, too. No, the older brother worked at Burger King. You know, he's in his act. But his older brother was his older brother had a job.
Starting point is 00:28:03 He was a responsible one. And Dane was, you know, just a kid. But Dane became famous so, like, really abruptly once he moved to New York. He took his brother. He's like, dude, quit your fucking job. Get out of there. And was like, I want you to come work for me. And he did.
Starting point is 00:28:20 He took him out of his job, be my guy. Take care of my money. Do my merch. Take care of the money. A lot of it's cash back then, right? And then as he progressed very fast, his brother made more money, more money. But he's also seeing what he's making, right? Which is good money.
Starting point is 00:28:40 A couple hundred thousand, something like that, right? Which is good money. And then you see how much you're pulling in. Millions is coming in. And you're dealing with it, right? and you're not getting a you're not getting a you're not getting you're not going up with that right you help so in your brain you probably help this kid when he was making you know thousands now he's making millions in your brain and all that cash is coming in all that money and you can control it one thing you get one
Starting point is 00:29:09 resentment hold on to it another one another one and then you ask for money and you get a no you know what are you going to do yeah i i i actually turned around and I'm completely on your side. Dane Cook asked for this and he deserved what he got. I'm just saying that his brother probably felt slighted in some way to where there's no because they were close, man. They were fucking close. Yeah, dude, money talks, dude.
Starting point is 00:29:40 Dane, his mother, his father, his sister, his family, Dane loved his family. I mean, it's all he had. Loved his mom and his mom, don't forget, his mom and dad both died at this time. He lost his mother, his father, his mother, and then his brother. Oh, it was money. The only thing he had left was his younger sister. Oh, I think he has an older sister too, but I don't know if they're close. He goes, is his younger sister, and she's a piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Damn, dude. I can't catch a break. He, I think that's what kind of happened. You should call him, tell me you thinking about him. Well, dude, if you took a couple, if you took money out, right, like, hey, I'll invest in this restaurant. I'll take it. It will make money. I'll pay it back.
Starting point is 00:30:22 There's got to be some type of psychology to what he was doing. I'll invest 20 into your restaurant. Jacob, let me bar 20 real quick. You got it. Thanks. Wait to see all the shit he got. How twisted it got.
Starting point is 00:30:37 The stuff he bought. Yeah. Just to tie the money up. Dude, wait to see all the stuff Dane Cook owned. It has to get rid of, basically. Yeah. $12 million is an insane amount of money to steal. He's like, I bought the boss.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Boston Electric Company. What? We now own Boston Electric. He's like a pretty short amount of time. Dane didn't buy anything. He didn't buy, he had a nice car. He had a one-bedroom apartment. He wasn't into watches or jewelry.
Starting point is 00:31:08 He wore jeans and goofy shirts. He didn't buy, he didn't spend his money like that at all. And then he got that Hills House, which is beautiful. That was after all this. Sort of like he accumulated it but never had the chance to spend it. Well, he was probably... Because it's... The reason why I went back on the second tour
Starting point is 00:31:25 where he had... To make the money. Yeah. To make all that money back. He had just did 25 or 28 City Arena Tour. Made all this money. HBO. Blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:31:36 He was a multimillionaire. You know, and your brain, you're... Yeah. It's a house, man. Yeah, his house is sick. That's a fucking sick house. Yeah, his house is redid. He bought the fucking...
Starting point is 00:31:48 Happy ending. It is awesome. Well, don't forget. A nice 20-year-old bride and a, like, I mentioned it is. It is also, though, it really is like, it's just him and this chick. It is a lot. No. It's a lot of house for that.
Starting point is 00:32:02 It's not that big when you go inside. He filled it. He has a room. One of the rooms he made into this big theater game room, you know, and then there's, I think there's two bedrooms upstairs. It's not a lot of room. It's a piece of shit. It's a nice house.
Starting point is 00:32:15 No, it's insane. No, I agree with you. He deserves what he got. No, I'm not saying that. And he lives in a fucking shanty dump. This is going to be very interesting, but it's going to be interesting for me to watch it to go to where. I'm in a lot of the shit, dude. I'm like there.
Starting point is 00:32:30 And a lot of, they had to cut me out of a lot. And Al-Dabini had to probably tell things that I told him. Because I remember calling Al going, blah, blah, blah, telling him all this shit. I'm wondering if Al was just regurgitating. I mean, Al just in the commercial where the trailer for this, all he was there was going like, wow. Wow. What? Come on.

Starting point is 00:34:07 Puerto Rico fucking digging up that cash. Yeah. That'd be smart. Yeah, dude, you don't think he got out of prison and went Shawshank that fucking farm? First of all, not Puerto Rico. You don't think Puerto Ricans can smell under sand cash?

Where do you think he parked? In Puerto Rico? No, on this side, before he flew to Puerto Rico. Where did he stop on this drive cross country to L.A.?
Starting point is 00:35:02 Buddy. To go fly to Puerto Rico. I'm telling you right now, as soon as he... Well, these are the hard-hitting questions. As soon as he got out of prison, he went and dug up whatever cash was left. Yeah. And he's gone. He's out.
