Starting point is 00:52:48 fair mones yeah dude my ass the fair mones came out and I dominated the room and you pep talk helped to either that or let's be realistic the girl could have left and said Barry stay close to the door I think the bald one ripped ass in there you're probably whispered to her so they didn't blame him. You were both fantastic. Right interview. I mean, I can't believe we got it.
Starting point is 00:53:10 We got it. We got to the bottom and nothing. Ben Midler, right? She's still around. All right. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, I guess.

And Bobby pulling out the Westgate's the old Elvis. Elvis, Elvis. And then the Rive was in front of it. And We both played the Rive. He didn't care about us
Starting point is 00:53:48 playing the Rive though, but still it did keep the conversation moving. We had him in here for five minutes. We got the we got the fake tickets on me when you're in Vegas. Yeah, cash those in. Those are real. That's a real thing. That's fake. That's a real thing. Barry Manell has said let get hit me up. Hit him up. Did you get his number? I didn't. Why didn't you just do the bump? You just asked me to bump his phones with you. Yeah, bump a phone. Go outside right now.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Go bump, go bump, go bump. Yeah, actually, say the bald one would really love your personal phone number. Yeah, go ahead. Go ahead. It's okay now. You were friends. Do you love that? You don't think I'll take a bubble bath with him? For me, you're take it. I'll take a bubble bath with the other side of him, dude. Oh, man. I hope he's in the fucking otters and bears. Oh my. Oh my. Otters and bears. Oh my. Otters and bears and dad is. Oh my. He was so cool. He was so cool. You see how his sunglasses hanging from his zipper. Oh, man. I like that. I got it all on video
Starting point is 00:54:45 It was worth all the tension. We what a build up and it came true. I mean it almost came crumbling It almost he almost said hi and turned right back around and walked out Bobby that was a hundred percent you he almost I mean I almost ruined. He relaxed him because he did not want to stay. Yeah, I will say when he was leaving, you go, you got a little greedy, Bobby. And you had to look down, you go, you go, Barry, I close all my shows, but your song, shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh, whatever I see, whenever I see you smile.
Starting point is 00:55:16 You know why? Because I'm not good with written, I'm good just freestyle and being Bob. But you could just left it out. It's a lie anyway. I did, it's a lie and I fucking panicked and I looked down at her. You're pan looked at it. I'm not a script guy. I'm a like let's go on the state. Let's let's improvise and I want you to know and I want you guys to appreciate this. Know who you work with and know the person that I should work with. Bobby was a little more vocal because most of the time
Starting point is 00:55:40 in my head I was saying to myself don't say come nothing come related because I told Lou you didn't have to worry about putting it on the screen so I have to really over say that the rest of the stuff I remember Westgate 69 Orlando Bing Bang Boom Brandy Mandy Bent Mittler Bathhouse yeah you should play a bit midler right now. I was when he had the bathhouse Is it hard to sing over the sounds of the butts going? The listening audience who are gonna hear this Thursday Don't blame us he he didn't want to be in there So he was standing like a foot and a half away from the mics it might be sound a little bit. He sounded a little bit. I heard him. I heard him. Luke.
Starting point is 00:56:27 He's up. He looked at you. Sit up. You got him. I did. I put two mics on him from far away. Yeah. We got him. We got him, dude. Dude, I got the video. That was longer and went way better than when me and Dan did Cindy Loper Pulled her out of the hallway. That didn't go't go great no she did not like me at all no and it crushed me because I was almost solely the person who wanted to earn here because I love Cindy Lauper I know you do and then I made a goddamn never meet your heroes junkies joke yeah she said all of her friends were on drugs tripping and that's what I remember she said she goes I used to be a DJ in college you know my friends would be like
Starting point is 00:57:06 I was just a music I liked but they would be like Cindy I was tripping so hard listening music and I go out so funny you think you're curating something that's just like a beautiful Medley of songs you like and someone's got a needle hanging out there on her she goes oh no no no and just let they were like she has to go I'm like, oh What actually bye? It's just crazy. She opened the door for that you walk away and then she got a friend I just asked rehashed what she said basically and she was like no No, who are five seconds away from that in this interview at all time? Absolutely five seconds away
Starting point is 00:57:44 We did it you guys were very professional. We did I think we did it as a team No, I mean if we didn't have Lou I'm giving you 90% of that. I mean Lou with the music when he walked in and that was a switch up. Let's play his music from the thing me that was that was great You went and got him black Lou gave us confidence in his face. He black blue did what not to say. I put the Broadway thing on the big screen. Put the Broadway thing on the big screen. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:58:09 I mean, this was a team effort, guys. I'm not gonna take 90%. Jacob, you were a great part. You're a human fart fan. I'm in a room as just as I can. 90% of it. I have to say I apologize for that. You shouldn't apologize.
Starting point is 00:58:21 Let me tell you some. You showed your apology. How well you did in that interview. You farted. It could have sent everything in the pure chaos and it did for a few minutes I mean it was bad. I'd loop on a mask I do love I do love by the way that the video I hope will show that the whole time DJ Lewis just standing for a man alone wearing a fucking Neck tie over his on the favorite uncle t-shirt. It looks like a molester on his fucking day off. Oh Jesus Christ Focusing his eyes on me to I'm nervous. Whenever it came out even that fart that that bad
Starting point is 00:58:52 That was all your nerves all of your nerves came out in that fart and you it was wretched That was pat. Yeah, it was wretched. It was pageantry. I have corporate in me. Yeah, I have corporate interview in me That was really good. I really did it I thought it was that was old Bobby and by the, we got to this we got to the bottom of nothing. No. We learned nothing new about him. He's not going to think about us for he's already forgotten who we are. He doesn't know our name still. It's over. But yeah. That is a good. Hey, come on guys, you can send us these big stars. These guys don't dig deep like that. And then we'll dig deep when we get them sitting down.
Starting point is 00:59:26 We'll get another one. What was the bathhouse like? Did she ever have to go alcapella while you went into the one of the rooms? Yeah. Yeah. But that's later. What'd you do in your break, Barry? Yeah, what'd you do in your break just because I saw it for a smoke? Or did you go inside for a smoke? You know what I'm saying? And then I go over. I put my thing down. I go over and I slap in the arm twice. Right. He'll love that then. By then, we've already been to his shows
Starting point is 00:59:47 a few times in Vegas. You haven't hit the man alone. Think, oh, dude, I got a boxy. He'll bring me on stage to fart. Dude, do that thing, man. Do that thing. Come on, baby. Why don't you let me do one of them steamers
Starting point is 00:59:57 for the audience. You smell it in the front row? That's when we met. I knew who was a good man. Oh man. He was good. I'll just say this about him. He's cool.
Starting point is 01:00:06 Very cool. He is cool. Shit. I mean, his outfit was insane. His glasses were nuts. The hair. His hair. I mean, that's, that's, he's a class guy.
Starting point is 01:00:16 That's a class guy, right? All class. No, for sure. That guy definitely, he's got, he only eats over placements. Mm-hmm. That's my sign. That in fart again. No, I know.'s still in you but it's in you now That's a both caution. Yeah, you got cold it. What's going on?
