All right. Hello folks and hey bear. We're back. I'm Dusty Slay. Welcome to the Nate Land podcast. I'm Dusty Slay. This is Brian Bates. This is Aaron Weber. And I'm Dusty Slay. This is Brian Bates. All right. This is Aaron Weber.

And I'm Dusty Slay. Nate will be joining us soon. Yep. And I'm Dusty Slay and this is the Nate Land podcast. We're excited to be here. That sounds fun. That was a, I like a jumbled intro. I used to always do those guys on ESPN.

I used to love the way they signed out when they did little segments. You know, I'm Jeremy Shat. Oh, yeah. ESPN. I like those. Yeah. Back when ESPN was good. Do you watch ESPN shows now? Is that Sports Center? I will occasionally put on Sports Center after a big game or something. If I want to just hear him talk about it or see the highlights, but not like I used to. ESPN, I used to listen to ESPN radio on SiriusXM all day. Mike and Mike.

When I sold pesticides, it was Mike and Mike in the morning, Colin Calhurt, then Scott Van Pelt, then I'm blanking on the last guy. But if I was working a long shift, I could hit all of those throughout the day and it was great. Yeah, back in the day, I remember college, I mean, the ESPN logo was burned in on our TV because we would just leave it on ESPN all day. And I don't think kids are doing that anymore. I don't think people care as much.

I mean, when I was a kid, you could get Sports Center, it'd be just highlights. I mean, they would just play Sports Center after Sports Center after Sports Center. And I think a lot of it is, I remember I used to wait for the top 10, the top 10 was so cool. Now it's, I see every play on Twitter. Yeah. Like I don't need to see it compiled in a list.

I guess that's true. I still watch part of the interruption. PTI is great. I record it. It's just a nice 30 minute quick summary of stuff stuff that right, you know, I mean I know about Yeah, and those guys are my age. So Looks great All right, well this is gonna be a hot episode and

We're let's talk about some places that we've been this week though. Everybody had Exciting weekends. Yeah, I was in Florida Thursday I was at laugh-outounge in Winter Haven, Florida. You flew down there though. Yeah, you know this is easier to drive. I know I embraced it, but it's getting a little old. Yeah, but you do need to know Brian does have real shows all over the country and sometimes he has to fly.

We're all professional working comedians. To get into another level Aaron. What do you mean? I mean, I thought they thought I had real shows that I just had to drive to. And now you're saying just to make sure. He does have real shows. Well, that's the last time I try to back you up. Ryan hates compliments. No one was out there was saying I didn't have real shows.

I know, I know. But I do. Yeah. Oh, totally. Yeah. And it was a great time. Laugh Out Lounge. I know, I know. But I do. Yeah, oh, totally. Yeah, and it was a great time, Laugh Out Lounge. A lot of folks came out. I like the idea Laugh Out Lounge, because Laugh Out Loud says, hey, I'm laughing, you know, and you can hear it, because it's out loud.

Laugh Out Lounge, it's like, what does that mean? Yeah, no one knows. Well, it's a lounge. Yeah. You go laugh. Yeah. San Antonio the club is laugh out loud. Yeah, laugh out loud.

And ha ha ha ha. Right. Exactly. That kind of stuff. Laugh out lounge is going to be a little more laid back, a little casual. It's just a play on the board. You laugh out, but not loud. No, no.

Don't laugh in. And then Friday I stayed in Winterhaven, did a Valentine's banquet at Heartland Church. Okay. It was a great time. About 400 people there. Wow. Nice little turnout. All right.

And then Saturday I drove over to Cocoa, Florida and did a- Not Cocoa Beach. Didn't, well, I actually went to Cocoa Beach after the show. Okay. But did the show in Cocoa. Just outside of Orlando, right? Yep. Okay.

Yep. And did a laugh all night from 6 to 7 p.m. And at Lineage Church, a lot of folks came out. Our friend, Kristy Johnson, came to the show. Yeah. And we mention her almost every week now. I know. But she and her friends were in town for the Daytona 500,

and they came to my show. That's awesome, man. So, it was a great time. The weather was so nice in Florida. Yeah. I had a great time. That's awesome. Good deal, man. I was in Bloomington, Indiana.

The weather was not beautiful. It was cold, snowy. We almost got snowed in the last day. Woke up, there's about six inches of snow. Wow. I mean, I didn't measure it, but it felt like a lot of snow and, uh, it was a lot to get out of there, but I did drive. Yeah. Four shows at the comedy attic. What a club.

It's one of those clubs you hear about when you start comics. We'll talk about how good it is. And I just never have gotten to work it, but did four shows there. One of them sold out. The other three were packed and they were just great shows. Jay Flake was with me. Madeleine O'Martin did the shows. Uh, a guy named Ethan did the shows.

Oh yeah. Saturday. You know, it's a good club. I did those clubs. I did that club during COVID. You remember COVID? I do remember COVID. I did.

I did that club that time. It was COVID? I do remember COVID. I did that club that time. During that time. It was fun, though. I had a good time. Well, it was one of those just a good weekend. You know, you're waiting on the bad show. And then the bad show never comes. And that's a good feeling. Usually, it's like, if you have a hot show, I go the late show is gonna be brutal. Yeah, just law of averages, but they were all good. So you know, that feeling feeling when you get the check at the end of the weekend, it's a little bit higher than you thought it might be. And you're like, no. I know the opposite. It was just a good feel.

I just tell myself I'm getting the guarantee and then anything else is a fun surprise. So I was like, oh, so I go, let's celebrate. So me and Jay went, it's like 1230 at night, 1 a.m. We go to an IHOP in Bloomington. That's how I ball out these days. Yeah. Big time. And I go, Jay, get whatever you want.

Boom. Get the sampler, get whatever. So we have a good meal there, it's fine, whatever. But he likes the flaky pancakes. I bet he does. That's where he gets his name. That's where he gets the name. That's where he gets the name. That's how names work.

So I stepped outside for a second to make a phone call, step outside, it's 1230, almost one in the morning, all of a sudden in the parking lot, jacked up pickup truck comes peeling in front of me to where I like step back a little bit. I'm afraid it's gonna hop the curb. And they were like, I want my jacket back. And then like step back a little bit. I'm afraid it's going to hop the curb. And they were like, I want my jacket back. And then it goes back the other way.

That's very funny, Dustin. Sorry, sorry. Sorry. It starts doing a donut in the parking lot, hops a curb, peels back around, tires squealing. It comes up, and then it backs into a parking. I mean, crazy scene. It backs into the parking spot and I see the back of the truck is like, this guy had just

been in a wreck. The whole back of his truck is messed up. So I'm like, this guy is drunk. He's causing the scene. That's great. So I walk back into IHOP, all the staff is in front of the window watching this and they go, did you see what happened? I go, yeah, the guy's doing donuts in the parking lot. I go, is that like a, do y'all know him? And they go, did you see what happened? I go, yeah, the guy's doing donuts in the parking lot.

I go, is that like a, do y'all know him? And they go, yeah. So I'm thinking my first thought is this is the boyfriend or the husband of somebody that works there and is like being creepy and weird and sitting outside that hut and they go, no, he just started working here. He's one of our cooks. And I go, oh, a real employee of the month, huh? And they go, we've been trying to get him fired for a while. And we can't.

And it said the first day he lifted up his shirt and showed the whole staff a tattoo on his chest that made everybody very uncomfortable. What was it? It was a, say a historical symbol from Europe and, uh, creeped everybody out. Evidently not grounds for termination, but they want this guy gone. So he's not working that night. He shows up drunk doing donuts in the parking lot. And now he's just sitting in his truck right outside the IHOP.

So the whole staff is just waiting there for this guy to like come in and cause a scene. Yeah. So Jay and I are right there, like we're ready to leave. Yeah. So you go, let's just get out of here. I don't want anything to do with this. Right. So we start walking out, the guy gets out of his car, starts walking in a huff to the front door. So now I'm like, all right, we're in this now. So Jay and I are just standing, we're all just kind of standing there All right, we're in this now. So Jay and I are just standing, we're all just kind of standing there right by the door. He comes up and then you ever see a drunk guy do that where they snap out of it? He like grabbed the door, he goes, after you gentlemen.

All right, yeah, we were, I mean, we got out of there, dude, but he, uh, he ran in, caused the scene, they gave him a cup of coffee just to get them to leave. And then he ran out. Anyway, the manager at one point talked to me and was like, can you please tell me what happened? And they go, and I told them and they go, that's all we needed to hear. That's what we've been waiting on. So you didn't leave immediately.

Well, that was, I talked to the manager between listener podcast. He was saying he was wearing a, we're having a good time hat. Cause everything leading up. I'm like, he was a dusty show at Indianapolis last week. But, uh, no, it was just crazy. I mean, that's the kind of stuff people make a Waffle house for, but like I hop, there are a million things going on. So it's virtually impossible to get fired from IHOP

is what you're saying. Sounds like it, but it sounds like that was the- IHOP sounds like a nightmare. It sounds like there was a probably like 18 year old girl shadowing our server and you want to be like, just get out now. You don't need this too. But the food was good and everybody else was nice.

It was just that one lunatic that works in the kitchen. He seemed nice in the end though Yeah, polite tattoos, but he was like gentlemen after you and that's that sounds nice. I mean a European tattoo. They're international. So yeah You know what I'm talking obviously been in a car accident Yeah, he had been in a car accident. I think it was probably his fault based on his behavior. It seemed like he got rear ended. Yeah. Dusty's on his side. Now this guy was a lunatic.

Sounds like a nightmare. This guy was a lunatic, yeah. Anyway, it was just a funny, kind of exciting way to cap off a fun weekend in Bloomington. So we got to see the Comedy Attic all week and then got to see real Indiana Right. Yeah at the end. Yeah, Bloomington's wild It masquerades as a college town, but it's a wild city Masquerade where were you? I was in California. I had two shows Fresno, California Very fun and then Sacramento, California, very fun.

Fresno, I flew in a day early, so I spent an extra day in Fresno and I enjoyed it. I stayed in what's called, uh, Clovis, uh, California, very nice California town. Um, and Connor Larson went with them. Oh, nice. It was very fun. We, you know, we just know we just drank coffee at a place called Cup of Joy, real Christian coffee spot. Yeah. Had two locations that we went to, one in Fresno, one in Clovis and it went to a thrift store, bought some

stuff, it's really great. The stools. So they put too much coffee in every coffee cup, so every cup overflowed. I don't get it. Oh, joy, overflowing with joy. Too much caffeine in there. My cup overflow with, you know what I mean? Yeah, it was great though. Very religious spot right there. And I, you know, it's like for some reason right in the middle of the belly of the beast, you just think about California and it really is just like, it's just a few cities. The rest of California is a very like, you know, just regular people over there, just having a good time and enjoying themselves.

And I liked it. And I asked them, cause when I was growing up in the 90s, we used to eat at Hardee's all the time. And I don't know if you guys remember this, but there was a Fresno burger that they used to have at Hardee's was just a burger with sourdough bread. And I asked them at the show. I remember that.

I don't know why I was acting like I did. I asked them that they know about the Fresno burger and they said, no. And I said, did you guys know that in Alabama, that's what we were eating? And I said, I got out here and I was looking for a Fresno burger. Well out there it's Carl juniors, right?

Yeah. But you know, nobody seems to know about it so I was like I said I didn't even know that we were doing that they didn't even know that we were eating those burgers. Yeah well maybe out there they were eating the opalaka sandwich or something. I mean that'd be amazing. I hope they were. Yeah. So what what makes it a Fresno sandwich? I think it was just sourdough bread. Yeah. Are they known for sourdough bread in Fresno? Maybe maybe San Francisco is and that's close enough I think. I don sourdough bread. Yeah. Are they known for sourdough bread in Fresno? Maybe. Maybe San Francisco is. And that's close enough, I think.

I don't know. You don't want to eat a San Francisco burger. Yeah. Yeah. But, and then they had a stool on the stage, which was a little concave. So my water bottles had to hug each other really to stay afloat. Concave, like a fat guy sat in it. Yeah.

Yeah. So I told everybody that I'm going to tell I'm not doing theaters. I told them that I'm going to say that that's the Fresno stool. That's what they, anytime you, I go, I go, yeah, you see this stool here in Fresno. They make them like this. Oh, that's fun. Dip in case you like sitting in the stool and pee your pants a little bit. It'll keep it in the stool.

That's what happens if you eat too many Fresno burgers. Yeah. Your stool will look like that. Yeah. Well, that's fun. That was great though. And Sacramento was really great too. I loved it.

I stopped in Modesto, stopped at a place called the Sandwich Shop. Had a Reuben there. Not good. Loved it. Oh, okay. Yeah. You know, the airport's fat in Fresno. Did you fly into fat?

I did fly into fat. That's pretty good. Yeah. I liked it. Fat was cool. They had a lot of redwood models of redwood set up in the airport. So I was walking through. That's the town or the airport's called? The airport's called Fat. That's the town or the airports called airports called fat.

That's the like the three letter. Radiation Fresno, whatever. Something's up. But I think when you if you go to Yosemite, that's the one that a lot of people fly into. So there's a lot of outdoor stuff there. That's awesome. It was great.

I loved it. That's great. I had a lot of fun. I love going to new places that I've never been to. Yeah. Sacramento seems like there's a lot of fun. I love going to new places that I've never been to. Yeah. Sacramento seems like there's a bit of a, well, both seem like there's a bit of a homeless situation going on, but, uh, doesn't bother me. Yeah.

Yeah. I was near Cape Cronafel and I did make the joke. Sorry. The shows weren't sold out and I made the joke. I go, I guess people thought the show was sold out. I drove by here earlier and people were camping out. That's pretty funny. It was a good job.

It went well. All right. We want to get in these comments. There are so many other cities. You could use that joke. Almost everyone. Yeah. Cause in Sacramento, there was a bit of a situation in the alley. There's so many other cities you could use that joke. You know, almost everyone. Yeah. Yeah.

Cause in Sacramento, there was a bit of a situation in the alley. Like I know that was like a wheelchair and an old bed was laying out there and block the road. So I couldn't get through. I have my truck. I would have, and the, who could not use an extra wheelchair and, uh, or an old bed. Yeah. And the guy goes, Oh, good.

First impression of Sacramento, huh hon. I go, listen, every city's like this now. Don't even let it bother you. Well, you've got a new joke now. You just got to never sell out shows and you can always use that. Yeah. Yeah. I love what people do. You know, like a very routine thing happens in the city. I was like, Oh, it's cold this morning. Now it's warm. Welcome to Omaha. Yeah. And you're like, okay, that is a saying that people say in every city in the

country, they go call it, uh, you know, Omaha winners, you, you know, you blink and it'll, well, they'll say like that, right? Like only in Nashville. Yeah. You're like, no, that happens everywhere. That's classic Nashville. It's going to be a different temperature, different time of the day. Yeah.

That's how we do it down here. Yeah. What is the expression though? They go, they go, if you don't like Nashville weather, wait an hour. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. If you don't like the weather, wait an hour. It'll change. Yeah. That's how the, you know, that's what everybody thinks. It's more than just weather.

Even traffic, even traffic. Everybody thinks of traffic. Any crazy thing in the news. Well, homelessness, like, yep, that's not, no, that's everywhere. Connor was telling me about this guy he did a show with in a city. And he said he picked that guy up at the airport and took him to the show. And he said there was no issues whatsoever on the highway. And the guy gets on stage and he goes

He just goes the traffic here That's so funny And but the thing is they bought into it they loved it they're like, yep, that's right guys crush is he knows us Yeah, you write that today. Yeah, we did what John Chris shows. Every comic had a different bit about how we got into. So it was like the first guy was like, yeah, we drove in today and next day we flew into your airport. And then it was like, there's a tour bus there. Like we're all liars. Oh, yeah. We all lie. Anyway. Yeah. This is Aaron

And those are the only places. That's right. Oh, somebody did bring me some gifts in Fresno and- For us? No, just for me. And then they brought a comment and I forgot it at home. Sorry about that, guys. Yeah, you didn't figure into the deal. The Drury family. They're a very nice couple.

Well, that's enough. And they brought- They just want their name mentioned. They brought a lot of stuff and we took a picture together and they brought like some nuts some peanut butter all homemade kind of stuff. I don't know if it's homemade, but it's local. Okay. And then some olive oil. It was great.

Yeah, just household goods. Yeah. They brought me tin foil. Which is what I meant to. Yeah, just toilet paper. Just bring some stuff. Yeah. And they were very nice. First comment what I meant to. Yeah. Just toilet paper, just bring some stuff. Yeah. And, uh, they were very nice.

First comment comes from John McCain. Josh. Josh McCain. John McCain. Jesus. Old comment. He's back. Aaron, since you're very proficient using the internet.

Thank you. I'm sure you're already aware of the Reddit community, uh, TV TV too high they are fighting the good fight against our greatest epidemic. I am very familiar with this subreddit I believe we've talked about it on the podcast before it was definitely the genesis of my Crusade against the TVs that are to this you didn't start on your own I Can't remember I think I commented on it and then I found the subreddit after, but the subreddit is what drives drives it. A lot of time.

It's just a very active community on there. People making fun of each other's TV setups. It's good stuff. For some reason, Reddit is banned or, uh, you can't go to Reddit on the Zany's wifi, isn't that weird? It's weird to have reddit blocked off But not any of these other sites and dusty's websites blocked off. Is it really or his YouTube channel last week? Oh, yeah You're on it's your own restricted. Yeah, this Wi-Fi a lot of your stuff's blocked off

As it should be a lot of the Nate land stuff too Like a bunch of Nate land episodes are not available on the zanies Wi- in this building and they're like, it's weird. We got to restrict it. Megan Barnes. Hey folks, I was on Jeopardy and won three games back in 2011. Wow. That was an easy year. The reason second and third place don't get the money they win is once a man went on to play to win enough for an engagement ring and once he reached that number he put his buzzer down and stopped playing so now the own now only the winner keeps the money to make it more competitive now second place gets 3,000 and third place gets 2,000 because they have to pay for their own hotel and travel

accommodations and that helps defray the cost. Interesting. It's very interesting. Brought to you by a leave. Yeah, I heard. A leave sponsor. One guy ruined it all just because he stopped playing. That's a story right there to be like,

this guy won enough for the engagement ring and that's all they wanted. Yeah. That's a good story. I think so too. Well, here we got some footage of Meghan on on Jeopardy right there. I Megan yeah, what she says she won three three games back three game, I mean that's a Solid man. Wow. She did well in those three days. I think she was on some other game shows, too

and I think that's a happens a lot $103,000 in three games is you're putting in some work. Yeah. She's doing a lot of true daily doubles there. Yeah. Congrats to Megan and the United States government. Yeah.

That's awesome. Thank you. Thank you, Megan. Christie shock. Shock. My lifelong dream was to be a contestant on the Wheel of Fortune. Thirteen years ago, my husband and I competed together on a couples episode during Valentine's week.

We walked away with like $7,000, but I realized I wasn't even 40 and I had peaked. My dreams were realized in one failed swoop. I guess now I can only dream of being a guest podcaster on Nate-land. Keep up the great work. Yeah, good luck, Chris. That's not happening. Ladies and gentlemen, now joining the studio, back from New York City at the SNL 50th anniversary show, put your hands together for Nate Vargetse, joining the podcast. How about that? All right.

All right. We're doing it. What's up, James? I've already worn this shirt. I didn't get a new shirt. So. I'll put this one back on. You've already worn this in the podcast? When I hosted the last, this is the shirt I got.

Oh. The sweater I got. Gotcha. And then so, yeah. Well, welcome got. Oh, sweater. I got. Gotcha. And then, so, uh, yeah. Well, welcome back. Welcome back. All right. Yeah. Your voice gone a little bit.

I mean, yeah. Uh, yeah. Yeah. The whole week was good. Did you already do everything? No, no, no. We just started the comments. Oh, really?

Yeah. We've done like two or three of them. So you can hop into that, but I mean, yeah, Well, let's hop in. Let's stay in the comments. Okay. Yeah. Christie Schalk, uh, who, uh, competed on will a fortune. It said her next dream is to be a guest podcaster on Nate land. Christie said tough luck. Christie's been on will a fortune 13 years ago, not done much since then.

Yeah. Oh yeah. That's a different thing. Yeah. Like, uh, try to get a few more credits, Christie. Mm-hmm. You know, try to do Jeopardy. Try to do. She has one more credit than I do. Family Feud. Christie, can I get on your podcast? Does she have a podcast? No, I'm just saying. Probably. That time I did Will of Fortune. I'd listen in for a little bit.

Somebody's jealous cause they can only get on Hollywood squares over here. Yeah. I bet I've done it to you. Okay. Yeah, that is funny because it's like winning, I don't know, winning a contest and then just asking for a full-time job. Like, well, just let me be on. Well, yeah, we would like to hear it. Well, I think Chrissy's joking about that.

I know. All right. You want me to keep reading it or do you want to take over? Let me read some so my voice can hopefully catch up. Well, this, I don't know if that's how it works. We skipped the first one.

Is that how it works? Oh, you're gonna, oh, you're gonna warm it back up. Yeah. Ease it back into it. Okay. We skipped the first one. So if you're going to warm it up. Oh, you're going to warm it back up. Yeah. Ease it back into it. Okay. We skipped the first one. Yeah. So, do you want to start with that one?

Josh Teter. I think I know that. I was fortunate to win the Corn Fairies Tournament, Corn Fairies Tour Panama Championship.

on stage. Bob Barker mocked him mercilessly as the show went on for his awful bidding. mercilessly as the show went on for his awful bidding. It's now a great memory. You turn into an amazing sermon illustration for him over the years. Oh, that's fun. Wow. How bad was the bidding? That's what I'd like to know. I mean, what was he doing?

$250,000. Yeah. Yeah. What, uh, I mean, how could you use that in the sermon? He's just bad at a game show. Uh, I mean, how could you use that in the sermon? He's just bad at a game show. Uh, maybe perseverance, perseverance ability. Yeah. You, you, you, you made it there.

You thought you, you know, you thought you were going to win something that you didn't. Not only do you not win, not only do you not win, but you got humiliated. Yeah. His wife left him. I'm guessing. Yeah. Bob Barker.

Was he known to be mean? No, just funny jazz. I think by the end he was a, he was an old man. He could be a little short with people, right? He's just over it. This was late eighties. Oh, late eighties. So he was.

I think he was playful. Yeah. Yeah. I bet it wasn't mean. Maybe showed it in the sermon. Yeah. I bet they didn't. Well, we may have had a VHS copy. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's fun. Can you imagine asking for that? Hey, I'm the guy that didn't make it on stage. You mind if I get a copy of this? Trying to show it at church. I kind of feel sorry for the people who finally got their comment read by Aaron

right before Nate walks in. Oh, yeah. Got my comment around Nate Land. What did Nate say? I feel bad. Sorry. Yeah, sorry. You just got us.

Maybe you could just say their three names just so they... Oh, Josh McCain, Meghan Barnes, and Christy Shock. There you go. Wait, why? Because he didn't say their names? No, I'm just saying they'd be excited about you reading their name. Oh, they're like, dumbo Aaron. Yeah.

Who cares? He said it better than my family says it. Amanda, I had a family member get picked for the prices right and she said you had to pay the sales tax on every prize you won and you had a week to pay it or you didn't get the prize. So that's why you would see this same car a few times. If they couldn't come to the money, they kept that prize for another show. That's crazy.

A week. A week. Yeah. That's a real shakedown. Yeah. You got the money? You got the money or what? You're on a game show trying to win something. You got sales tax money.

Come on, buddy. Yeah. Yeah. It's tough. Yeah. Cause they, they do. Yeah. You know, one minute you're jumping up and down, screaming like an hour later. You're like on the phone with your wife. We got to sell the house. You have $30,000.

What do we do? Yeah. And cause you need like, what, probably like eight grand to get the car. Like even if you're like, look, if I can get eight grand, I can get 25 grand. Yeah. Yeah. But probably still some kind of tax you got to pay for receiving the car for free. Yeah. I wonder how that's done. That. Maybe you'd have time for receiving the car for free. Yeah.

I wonder how that's done. That maybe you'd have time to sell the car and then pay the, you know what I mean? You get it in that week. You sell it. I would take a loan. I went on the prices, right. And all I got was an Aaron and a low and a low. I had to take out a mortgage on my house.

It's crazy. Bryce Evans. I was on the Bryce's right. You know Bryce? I think so. I think Bryce sells me hats. Oh. Uh, you buy a lot of hats? Yeah. They got a hat guy? Yeah. Is this the guy I just met?

I think so. Okay. I think I just met this guy. He may spell his name with a Y though, but it's still Bryce Evans. I mean, is that him? Yeah, maybe. Okay. I think I just met this guy. He may spell his name with a Y though, but it's still Bryce Evans. I mean, is that him? Yeah, maybe. Okay. Still right. We still don't know.

I never seen him acting like that. Yeah. Please just pull. I like that we go, we go, we're not sure if that's his name spelled. And then we go, well, is this his face? And he go, maybe. He's never acting like that when I'm around.

It's a little different. Well, let's read the comment first. All right. I was on the Price is Right, so I have some insight on the wheel spin. I think there is a limiter mechanism inside. I jumped up with the wheel and brought it down with all my might. An old lady spun it before me and she got it around just as bad as well. So they either slightly control it or have the strength of a 90 year old. Yeah.

I couldn't find video of him spinning the wheel. Yeah. He's Jared on the game show. He's got Jared on his name tag, but he wrote in as Bryce Evans. I watched this video and it's behind the scenes. He says he, Aaron Paul gave him advice on how to get on there. Aaron Paul was a contestant, probably way back in the day. And he gave him some tips on how to get on there.

Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. That's awesome. Thank you, Bryce. Yeah. Wow. And look what it did for him. Yeah, he got breaking bad out of that. Yeah He was in a corn pops commercial too, do you remember that one? Gotta have my pops I don't I remember those commercials Aaron Paul was in that Maybe his honeycomb. I don't know. He did a cereal commercial Now he's doing well. Yeah. I don't know if I can go that crazy.

Yeah. We'd never get picked. We would never get it. Wouldn't. Yeah. I'd feel very uncomfortable. You don't think you would go that crazy? No, I'm trying to imagine that much emotion. Yeah.

It's, I don't know, dude, casino night. You're getting pretty into it, man. Yeah. At the roulette table. That's true. Well, that we got on the run there. Yeah. And then, yeah, well, this is the same, same feeling.

I bet. Yeah. That was not real money. But if it was real money, wouldn't that increase the, I don't know. I think I would be, I don't think I could do it. But I mean, I guess if you just knew you had to be, go crazy. Yeah.

Garth Brooks behind him in the wine? Yeah. Looks a little bit. And then every got brought up. Jerry Vogel on the left, you go, good night. That was a funny SNL thing they showed. Oh yeah. Yeah we'll talk about that. Yeah Glenn Blackwell we know Glenn. Yeah. As a Nashville realtor I think Dusty's idea of the Rearranger show is brilliant. The

show could join me at a listing appointment where Dusty helps my clients who don't want to spend money on staging get their house ready to list I'm into it. So this is the TV show idea that dusty has Nate But I think my idea though is more for I don't know Maybe this is the but like I go into a messy house. I don't bring any tools I mean I can bring tools but no shelving and then I just rearrange your house and make it better and No expertise not just just gut feeling. Yeah.

I mean, I, you know, I'm a bit of an expert, I think. Okay. And, uh, uh, I think it's a hot show. I mean, we went into it. My pitch was really last week. Yeah. So I'll go back to this. Yeah.

It's a hot show. Yeah. I think it would be good. Requires no buying of anything. No, no buying. I just bring in some tools. I may need a screwdriver and a hammerires no buying of anything. No, no buying. I just bring in some tools. I may need a screwdriver and a hammer and stuff like that. But yeah, you just find some things.

Usually you can, in a pretty messy house, usually you can go, oh, if you just did this or this or this, then it starts to come together and people go, oh, this is nice. I mean, I could have did this the whole time. I'm like, well, yeah, if you had my eye, you know. Yeah. Yeah. And a little motivation. have did this the whole time. I'm like, well, yeah, if you had my eye, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

And a little motivation. Straight eye for the straight guy. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. Dusty was on the Hollywood Squares this past week. Oh yeah. That is true. So I watched the episode down,

the end was you and Tyra Banks. Yeah. And then you had the 25,000, is that planet or was that truly by chance? Um, well, I mean, I don't know. I don't remember. It was months ago, but I, but it's like, but like even, I mean, they had to put it in an envelope no matter what. So either, you know, it was planted by somebody. Okay. It didn't, you know what I mean? Like it, it wasn't like nobody has it.

Yeah. She had a one in nine chance, I think. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it feels good. You know, when I did Nashville squares a while back, I also had one of the winning things taped in LA. Yeah. And then I won, um, you know, after midnight and, uh, I won, uh, nice ones, uh, Ron Funches show. I mean, I'm on a roll with games. Oh yeah. Yeah. All right. You guys are getting a family feud and you're looking for a guy. Oh yeah. It would be good to have you. Is you one dusting because he's, he's a cousin outside the family. Yeah. Yeah, just you one dusting because he's he's a cousin outside the family. Yeah Way outside Becca purchase

I'd love family feud and do not love Steve Harvey as the host Wow, he's definitely funny, but I'm watching that game show. I want to see the actual game So many times I'm saying let it go and get back to the game when he keeps going on and on and on I could see that. Yeah. But the game, it's still the same, right? They still, it's the same amount of time. They don't like lose out. You don't see-

He does that pauses though. Like he'll like, something happens, he stops and he walks over there and then, and if you're watching this, I get, if you are like, I love this game so much. I just want to hear the answers. I just want to hear the answers and I want to go do it. It's got to be a show.

That, I mean, it's like a casino. If you're doing a, the slots, like those people just want, want to boom, pull it and go. And if it stopped and was like a video, they would be, you wouldn't even get me to play it. Cause they'd be annoyed. But my question is with the previous host that didn't linger as much, were you seeing

more games? Linger. Yeah, yeah. I don't, I don't know if. I don't think you were. I guess there's the same amount of gameplay. So I don't know how that's possible though. But the game, the game family feud actually kind of stinks.

It's not that good of a game. I don't know. I got to disagree with you. But now it's like the questions are not, they're all kind of derivative of each other. What I like about it is it's like, it's not really based on intelligence. It's just like they go, we ask people these questions and these are the answers they gave us.

So you got to think common. You know, you got to be a common thinker. Yeah. You know, you go, you don't go, what's the answer? You go, what would people say? Yeah. You know, you go, you don't go, what's the answer? You go, what would people say? Yeah. Yeah. Uh, Jeremy Pizer, Pizer.

Pizer. You know, but it's not Pfizer. I know he's close. He's, Jeremy's close to be living a different life. He will be writing in and say that. Yeah. He'd be, yeah. He will be writing in and tell you that. Yeah, he'd be yeah, he'd be living it up Coming up on February 21st and 22nd. I am looking to go looking to go two for two Seeing dusty and Boise on the 21st and Aaron and Spokane on the 22nd. All right for these actions

May I receive the honor of Nate land listener of the week? If not, can you at least validate parking? That's awesome. I do want to clarify. I'm on Spokane on the 23rd. Oh, sorry, Jeremy. Make sure we handle that. And also, well, you know, let's see you do it first.

You know, this is a lot of talk right now. Let's see you show up to most shows. That's right. Get a picture with Dusty and Eric. Yep. of talk right now. Let's see you show up to most shows. Get a picture with dusty and air. Yep. There you go. And I will not be there on the 22nd. Yeah.

But you got to find Aaron on the 22nd. I'll be at Tacoma, but yeah, I'd love to see you Jeremy. Come on down. Come on out. Get a picture with dusty. It'd be tough. Why is that? Bring a gift. That's how you get back. Now it is like, I don't want, I'm not even trying to be like that, but when people do

bring me gifts, I go, wow, I want to take a picture with them. You know what I mean? Because it's very nice. Yeah, of course. And I like, I'm just, it's hard to do the meet and greet, but it's like, if people bring me stuff, I'm like, well, now I feel like I should, you know, take a picture with you. I don't want to not do that. That's not very nice of me.

You know? Did you put a hole in that. I don't want to not do that. That's not very nice of me. You know? Did you put a hole in that table? It's just in there. Okay. It is now. Look at that. Yeah. Your dad's been teaching me tricks.

Yeah. Nathan Taylor, Nate's Door Dash commercial was hilarious. He got me thinking about what products the other guys could advertise. Brisket could do a life insurance commercial. Aaron would definitely do a Milky Way commercial. Dusty could do a cigar commercial. Yeah.

All right. Yeah. Yours sounds perfect for you. That sounds great. I don't think you can do tobacco on TV though. So you'd have to find something else. Uh, I'll do vape. I think you do it, can you do it in magazines? You can do it in magazines for sure. Yeah.

Just find a magazine. Yeah. You can do life insurance? You would like that? Sure. You just know a lot about it? I think it's just usually old people that are the ones that do it. You go in there for life insurance and they go, the guy behind the counter goes, look, I'll cover it,. Yeah. And it was on during SNL. Yeah. Well, I knew it was on, I was like, I'm sick of this.

I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this.

I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this.

I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of this. I was like, I'm sick of meeting. I was like, I'm sick of this. On regular TV. Yeah. And it was on during SNL. Yeah. Well, I knew it was on, see, I thought it was like, I know people are saying they've seen it crazy on YouTube. Yep.

And so then I thought it was like more online because I haven't seen it on regular TV, like watching like cable TV. This was a Roku. Here we go. Uh, but it had channels. I don't remember what I was watching. No, no, Roku. Here we go. But it had channels. I don't remember what I was watching. No, no, I know. Yeah.

Yeah. I know the SNL, they aired it like twice. That's crazy. It's good. Yeah. I love how you said Roku there. It was very close to the, but it felt like you said it like you had not ever said it before.

Yeah. Roku. You said Roku. Roku. I didn't say it with a lot of confidence. I was trying to watch Hulu. Roku. You said Roku. Roku. I didn't say it with a lot of confidence, I admit. I was trying to watch Hulu. Roku. I was wearing Fubu. Yeah.

Fubu. Brian wearing Fubu in the hotel. Watching Hulu on my Roku. That's a commercial. Oh. You just got your phone, right? I'm good. I'm good.

That's not broke. I heard something. I rolled over a piece of paper. We're good. I'm good. That's not broke. I heard something broke. I rolled over a piece of paper. We're good. Yeah. It's a piece of wood. It's a piece of steel behind it.

You heard that crumble. Sounded like aluminum. We're good. I rolled over the comments that are the ad reads that are on the ground. Sorry about that. We love talking about our helix mattresses. I've had my helix mattress almost three years now. Nate's parents just got one and guess what? They love it. We all do. It improves how I sleep. Everyone knows I love their pillows and I do. We talk about it all

the time but it has helped with my sleep. Brian and Aaron have sleep apnea. That's not in the ad. It is in the ad. Oh, no. Brian and Aaron have sleep apnea. Geez. One time you called me by my real name. And they said they're, I always call you Brian. Yeah, I know. I'm the respectful person here. And they said they're, don't forget it. You know what I mean? I won't. And they said their Helix mattresses helped with it. You guys said that right? It helps with your sleep apnea? Oh absolutely. My old mattress was one of those old springs. I got a bit about it on YouTube. There's a YouTube video called about my old mattress and I finally realized how bad that is for

sleep. Helix fixes that issue. It's great for hot sleepers, people with back pain, and snores. It's for everyone. It is a good mattress. Actually, I got one for my sister not long ago. My sister was, they kept complaining about how bad they were sleeping,

and they were telling me about their old mattress. And I told them about this, and they weren't doing it. weren't getting it and finally I said you know what I'm gonna buy them a mattress my sister has done a lot of great things for me and said I said I'm gonna buy them a mattress and I bought them a helix and they love it that's awesome they've been sleeping great they feel good I don't think they would tell me if they didn't like it because I bought it for them, but they seem happier.

What's the over-under on how many of the mutual guests at the SNL concert Nate knew? He obviously knew Dave Grohl. I really wanted to know what he thought about David Byrne and if he knew who he was. So excited to see him and Laura on the broadcast. I did not know who David Byrne was.

I think I knew that song. I did not know who David Byrne was. I think I knew that song. I did not know him. People love David Byrne. He's like got a cult following. Yeah. I did not know David Byrne. Talking Heads, right? Yes. But I've heard of Talking Heads, but I did not know like what, that's funny that she said David Byrne because I did ask. I go, I don't know who that is.

I don't know. I wouldn't have known David Byrne either. Talking heads for sure. But I don't know by, by his name. And they brought them up by their names. I didn't know the woman he was up there with. I did not either. Yeah. Uh, yeah, I was trying to think who else was, uh.

That was Saturday night or Friday. That was Friday night. Or send me the list. Was this the- Let me forward it to you. Was this the episode where Post Malone sang the Nirvana song? With Nirvana? Yeah.

Did you love every second of that? I did. Did no one like it? I was like, I don't know how this could be worse than. It's one of those impossible, it's an impossible thing to do to cover such a beloved song from a band where the lead singer is dead. It's like an impossible task. Yeah. So don't do it.

How good could he have done? That's what I'm saying. I thought he did great. I don't understand. Exactly, it's fine unless you. that's like one of those that I thought he did great and I thought it was awesome and Everybody loved it and Then I would but I was curious cuz then you go and people like well, I don't like that or you heard afterwards some stuff

but It killed in the room like before yeah it was crazy yeah it was crazy because post Nirvana which is like the perfect name I talked to Dave Grohl afterwards like you like y'all could tour with that and it like works out I thought he sounded great but that's where I mean with music I don't understand I don't know what, uh, you know, that all that, that band got back together. That's good. That's cool for those guys.

Uh, they don't ever get to get back together. Yeah. And it'd probably been years since they played together, right? Yeah. And so, uh, I thought it was great. I didn't, but I mean that I was wondering, cause I'm sure I think everything's great. And then you get off and then everybody's like mad or said it was bad or something like that.

I just don't think he's good. And I don't know. Post-mulan. Yeah, and I don't understand. Yeah, but is this you? Is this you? Maybe. Yeah, it could be, you already don't like him.

I just don't think it's good though. Somebody sent it to me and I was like, you know, Kurt Cobain had, you know, not that he had some amazing singing voice, but he had a kind of a little yodel almost about his voice when he would sing these songs and there was none of that in this. I just feel like... He wasn't doing a Kurt Cobain impression. Yeah, yeah, he's doing himself and you know, he stayed alive.

So that helped. So I know that's, you know, well, sure, that's a post Malone's fault. So, but I just think, I don't know, I think there should be a little something of that in it. I think you just got to accept that you're just gonna not like stuff. Yeah, other people are. And I'm grappling with that too. You're not though, because you've no, I accept this is, but I'm just having a conversation about it.

I'm talking about just beyond this conversation, just in general. Yeah, I would think you don't like Post Malone and you go, I don't like him already, so he's going to annoy me no matter what. But sometimes I don't like people and then they do something and I go, well, that was really good. Yeah, but what's the general online? Were they saying... I saw some tweets that were just... Most people seem to like it it people were saying to me

Saying oh, I love this. What do you think some people didn't like it? Yeah, it shows you that online is Just If it killed in the room, then that's all that yeah, it would kill in the room It would sell out if they sold tickets to that everybody would love it. Everybody have fun. Sure It's the best it was it, very, it was like, I thought that was like the best part. Of the whole concert. That concert, I love that.

Yeah. They do a bunch of songs. That is sexy. They do a bunch of Nirvana songs. Or do they just play the one song? No, they just played the one song, which is great. Cause that's why I think it was so great. Cause if they played that one song, they got out.

What am I pulling up? Oh, she sent the list of all the performers. I don't know. Oh, okay. If we care. We got Mumford and Sons right here it looks like. Yeah, I don't know what we're showing. Are we gonna go through?

Let's start with Wednesday. Let's go through. Oh, the whole thing. It was a crazy. It was a crazy week. Whole week. Yeah. So yeah, so I got there Wednesday, because I was supposed to have rehearsal Thursday, and then as I was about to take

off, they go, I don't have to rehearse until Saturday. And I was taking on Wednesday. And they were like, you could basically just come Friday for the concert or Saturday, you know, but I was already going and I was like, all right, I'll just go and you know, I'll yeah, I was like, I went and I was like, dude, to some spots. So I went to New York Comedy Club used to be the Eastville Comedy Club in this room. That's where I first hit. So I met a Texas, me and Gaffigan went down there and, uh, that's where I got Conan. How did that room used to be the Eastfield comedy club and now it's New York.

So I got my first two Conan's auditioning out of that room. Leaning up against the wall. Huh? Pretty casual, right? Well, that's the old, I mean, you know, it's the old old way you did it You're gonna be sitting down within a year, dude. You're gonna be sitting down. Oh, I'm in the round. Well, everybody said fully reason I thought about sitting down. I thought about trying it But yeah, that's this is this is all New York. I know. New York City's all leaning. And it's so diverse.

I think I've done this club in the daytime at an open mic. Oh, yeah? Yeah. I once, that's the one when it was Eastville, an open mic, I went in there and I was running a Conan. And I asked if I could run it. And that's where the guy goes, I could throw you a blast. It was a 5 PM open mic.

He didn't, I don't think he understood the words, I'm doing Conan. It didn't make sense to him. Like, you know, like, because you think just every comic's got like that short hand. I'm running Conan tonight. Do you mind if I do it? You're like, yeah, yeah. And I told him that and he goes, you can go up and laugh. So I was going to sit there for an hour.

Yeah. Maybe more more maybe more. Yeah Wait till all the crowds gone. Yeah So there and then I went to so so this picture is Mike Vecchione's idea So I it's all I got a lot of comics we got together and hung out. So we went to we went to Eastville with Gaffkin and I went over to, then Spade, I don't know if it was Wednesday night, Spade got in Thursday night. But then Wednesday night went over to Connie Seller and went up there. And Chris Rock is going to say on this is is gonna be all just names you're gonna hear.

So, uh, but Rock came by and Aziz and so we were hanging out and then, uh, we were about to be leaving and Vecchione's idea was this, but I do like that. It's the pictures there. This is the corner I stood at when I would hand out flyers for the Boston Comedy Club, which was right up the street that way on the third street I think. And so Comedy Cellars, if you're looking at this picture face on, Comedy Cellar is on my left, you know, me facing you. And then, so I would stay in there and I'll hand out flyers.

That corner, I remember standing on that corner and I'm like handing out flyers you just in mode like hey we got a great show for you tonight Boston come to come you and come down hey we got a great show for you tonight hey we got a great show trying to get people to come to Boston come to go and then I turn I go hey we got a great show and it was bill burr and I was like I'm sorry man and I got started and he was going to run his first Letterman so he was his letter his first late-night set and I like barked him I was like I'm sorry, dude." And he was going to run his first Letterman. So he was, his first late night set and I like barked to him and I was like, I'm sorry, dude. I like, you know, you're like, I know who you are. Like, you know, I felt embarrassed. I mean, you know, he's, it's at

that point, I mean, he's going to do his first Letterman. But he was like, he's the man. For sure. And then he was like, he was like, nah, nah, don't worry about me. He was very, you know, and then he was like, I'm going to run in Lauderdale. I was like, well, there's a, you can come to the Boston, you can come, you know, I was like, the cellar, he obviously knows the cellar's there, but I was like, there's another room right down there, Village of Lansing. Like, you know. I can get you up last with the mic over there.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just telling them like, you can just go to all these rooms and go run it. But that's where I stood on that. I stood on that corner for quite a while. Uh, and I mean, just freezing weather. And that's where I would have my daydreaming of playing Bridgestone to just. And then as, as I handed someone a flyer and they dropped it on the ground in front of me. And it was, every one time I didn't bring a jacket.

I went out there to go stand, and for some reason didn't bring a jacket. And it was, it was like, it was so cold. And I think I had to eventually go back in and get someone to switch because I was like this was a mistake and I'm sorry. But I do not have a jacket out there and it's freezing. But so- So you brought half a jacket this time. Yeah. Well that's a jacket underneath it.

I bought that jacket when I was there. It's a cool jacket. Yeah. It's a half a jacket and a jacket underneath it. One and a half jackets. One and a jacket underneath. One and a half jackets. One and a half jackets. So, yeah, so we went there and then Thursday night, Spade came to town and so then we all, we went to the stand and then to back to the Comedy Cellar. So we go to the Comedy Cellar and think about this.

We go to Comedy Cellar. You know, everybody's kind of in town, right? Because everybody's going to SNL 50. So, Spade, we text, like Rock and Spade, I'm like, Spade's with me, then we text Rock, we're like, hey, we're going over to the Cellar. He's like, so he comes over. So we get there.

And then when you go there, they're like, all right, do y'all want to go up? And you know, and Spade's going to go up. He doesn't always go up either. He wasn't, he was like, I'm not going up. And then he was like, I'll go up. And I was like, all right, well, that's all go up. So, so I went up, Spade went up, Rock went up without knowing. Why didn't we did not know this? They told us as we were going up that same show, how that show started was the host. And then it went Steve Martin, Martin Short, John Mulaney. And then it was like,

y'all was actually the worst part of the show. We were the worst part of the show. People started leaving. Steve Martin, I believe, uh, so he running his monologue. He was, yeah, he was running his monologue and I think he went to a club when he did the Oscars, but like outside of that, he hasn't been to a room like that since the sixties. Yeah. Lucy posted, I think.

Yeah, yeah. So that show, uh, this is this, I don't know if they're still showing this picture, but it's, uh, this at the connoisseur that show That show is, those people paid, I think, $18. Yeah. Wow. For that ticket. Wow. And the show was, yeah, Leslie Jones went up,

John Lancaster's the host, like, you know, then a couple other, the comics that are just on the seller lineup. Yeah. And then, I'm not saying I'm them, but I went up and then Spade then Rock. And I brought Spade up. And so this crowd was like, everybody-

What is happening right now? Yeah, it was like, cause they were like, no, we're like, oh, we don't have to go up there. They're like, no, go up. Like, you know, and it's, we were saying like, it's gotta be one of the better lineups ever at the cell. If you're like a no name, you're like, I'd like to get bumped. Yeah.

I actually, I want to be bumped on this. Please don't wedge me between. Imagine complaining like, I need my time. Yeah. There's comics that would complain. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, those people paid $18 and you got that and it's just boof,

boof and you, and you don't, and it just keeps going. Is that fun? I was Steve Martin. So I love Steve Martin, but I'd love to see him do stand up. You got there after he had gone up there? Yeah, I did not see him there that night, but, uh, they, they came in and then they kind of left, uh, he did the opening monologue to SNL last night. Oh, I'll check that out.

And so he went up and did that, then he brought Martin Short up, and they do a whole thing together, a show together, and then they brought Melania up. I mean, it's absolutely nuts. And so it's just stopping in, and then it's like a wave that goes in. Then it's like Leslie Jones.

And then, uh, it kind of like, I think, and then it's like, just then it's, you know, then I bring up then like when I came up, they went crazy and then spayed then I, then I'm like, all right, well, I'm bringing up someone and I go David spayed and they're like, Oh, I was just going to ask how fun was that? No. And you get to bring up a very fun cause they've already had so much. They're like, who else is, who else could even say spade?

Yeah, I forget. That would be the perfect spot for you. Yeah. That's what I'd love to see you do. Yeah, I forget who did it. But that's the wonderful, that was, you know, that's what New York. I think only Post Malone could follow Chris Rock. Yeah, I think we'd have to put him in there. Because I'm post Malone could follow Chris. Yeah.

He goes, I'm going to do my Nirvana. Yeah. Or he would just do someone else. Now he's got, he's like, I'm going to do my Mitch Hedberg. Yeah. Post Hedberg. Yeah. Post Hedberg. Post Hedberg.

Or I sent it to... I may have missed that. Yeah, I can say it. It's just a building. But what was the story behind it? No story. It's just a really cool building. It's a crazy building. It's a crazy building. We could just Google that. Well, it's funner to see that it came from my phone. I got air and I can air drop it to me. Yeah. Boom. This was just near the hotel and look at this.

I mean, okay. That was worth pulling up. Is that not crazy? Yeah, that looks insane. It looks like a suitcase. And it looks like a suitcase. And, uh, look at this. I mean, okay. That was, that was worth pulling up. Is that not crazy? That looks insane. It looks like a suitcase.

It looks, and it looks like, like you're going to see that almost could be the way new buildings go in cities. Cause it looks unbelievable. This is almost more impressive than the sphere. Yes. It's, it's, it's crazy, dude. It's crazy, dude. It's crazy. When you're walking up there, you're,

it would be like, go see it in person. I mean, the little handles are, it comes off of it. It's made, it's, I don't know. I mean, every time you walk. I assumed a lot of this was screens, but it's straight up. It's the real, the real thing. Wow. Yeah. That's better than the statue of Liberty.

They're really making some money there. Louis Vuitton. That building is closed. Is it really? Yeah, it's not there. The store is like across the street. Bankrupt built it. Yeah. I don't know if they're going to go into, but I mean, maybe it's like, maybe it doesn't need to just have it be an empty building.

I saw how much money Louis Vuitton makes a year. It will shock you how much money they make. Yeah. They're like one of the biggest companies in the world. Just from, just from bags. Yeah. And others. Just from, yeah.

Yeah. Uh, all right. So, so that was Thursday. That is a cool building though. When you guys were all searching for a picture of a building. You're like, how cool could it be? Yeah, that's very cool. Yeah, I mean I actually really thought about it and took a picture of it.

And I said, I'm going to show that because it was just, I was so impressed by that building. So Thursday night. Friday night, we go do that stuff. So Friday night is the concert. So Friday night we go to the concert. We get in there, meet Joy Lou Stryfus, think of a picture of her. Yeah. How was she? She was wonderful.

She asked me to take the picture because her kids love me. All right. So then I was like, well, can I take the picture because her kids love me. All right. That's awesome. So then I was like, well, can I get one too? Yeah, yeah, of course. And then so, took a picture with her. She ended up, you know, talking to her like kind of throughout the weekend, like nothing crazy. Just it's crazy. Once every, it is like when I like, I think of it, when all the celebrities get together, I think I've talked

about it before, the shorthand is gone. So there's, you know, that's like, oh yeah, great, you're a big fan. Then you just kind of have a conversation like you've known each other for a while. You just kind of get into it. Or- It's like when comics meet each other. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. It would be like anybody

at like any kind of office working environment where you can speak shorthand, right? Yeah. Not the shorthand is gone. The shorthand is you can just get into it. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe. Yeah. Is that what I meant? Yeah. So there was her husband, Brad, yeah. Coming back from the break last night on the show, there was one shot where you see him yawning. It was very funny. I mean, it's two and a half hours into the show. Oh yeah. They could have got me a couple of times.

Yeah. I mean, it's a long night and you're dude, every night is the longest. I mean, we were out every single night. So we're sitting here. So at great, great seats, got an aisle seat. Unbelievable. That's primo. I don't know.

It was either, if you would have told me I could have Tom Banks behind me or an aisle seat. And for me to get both is unbelievable. I might have much rather have the aisle. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, Ray Romano's in front of me, Peyton Manning up a little bit to the left. We had Arcade Fireguy. If y'all watched his, like when he went crazy, crazy, he came up wonderful. Will Butler? Yeah. He was just

sitting in his seat like a mean Ray and Ray are like looking at him, he's got a crazy suit on, and so we did not, I did not put it together who he was at the time. He's very tall. And so he's sitting there, and you can, and now it all makes sense, you know, cause he's like kind of quiet and just sitting there

like watching, but not too into the show. And then he gets up and sings, then you're like oh and he and you're like well that was the opposite what I thought that but then I was thinking that that's like if you ever do you know you do a corporate gig or something where you know you got to go up and you got to sit in there you're not you're kind of like not paying attention to what's going on because you're like I have to go up soon yeah so I'm kind of staying in the head space of that but I did not know that so I'm just seeing him sit there watch it and then he just gets up and he starts going

crazy and dancing and runs through the crowd you're like well that's the opposite of I. You go I didn't have that pegged. So we are weird but we were there, Gaffigan's over there you know I mean everybody you just look it's it's Miles teller sitting right next to us, which I've known I got to know miles teller to uh golf in lake tahoe.

Yeah. But he, yeah, he was awesome. All right. Cause I feel like he, he's a good guy. Like he, I feel like you could, you don't know someone that he's like that good of an actor, intimidating or not. Like, but he had, this is a better look for me. See, he had a better look than that before.

See, when you see him looking like that, you're like, are you okay? He's researching a role to play you. Yeah. Dusty Sleigh Bobby. Right. When you look like this guy in the, you know, any of these other pictures, it's like. Well, if you look at, go back to that one for the Dusty look. That is Dusty that believes the earth is round.

Jack Black So, uh, yeah, it was so Spielberg just I mean just a wonderful Wonderful. I gotta tell him my first movie I ever saw in the theaters was ET That's cool. And he was like, oh, so that's how he goes. So that's I got you started. I go. Yeah Yeah, he's like I sound so I'm like I go I saw my yeah, yeah, yeah, he's a joke. Like, I sound so too, I'm like, I go, my first, I went to, first movie I went to in the theater is E.T.

I was saying that so much, I said that to Chris Pine, to something about movie theater. And I'm like, oh my gosh, just go. You gotta keep it real out there. Well, you know, it gets there, I don't even think about it till it's already there. And then it's already out. and you're like, what are you gonna do? Yeah. You just say, you know. You gotta represent old Hickory out there.

Well, yeah, I'm fine representing it, but sometimes you're like, I'm just, I don't want to get involved. I don't, I'm always just trying to avoid sometimes the, what? What'd you say? Yeah. Theater. I say theater. So he, yeah, unbelievable. Awesome. As all everything's cool. You're in his next movie now? Yep.

Yep. Means Spielberg. War Horse 2. So then we, that, that night we go, what was that night? Yeah, we go, oh, I had a funny thing. So there's an after party. There's an after party every night. You know what I've learned? All right, if you ever think, so this kind of situation, where an SNL thing, you've got to imagine all these celebrities, it's everybody's reading into everything. So where are you sitting?

Are you allowed to bring a plus one, not a plus one? Are you sitting, you know, like are you farther back? Are you in the middle? Are you in the hour? Are you in the this? Or who are you next to? Who do they pair you with? In comics would do that too.

You're always like, why are they putting me here and all this? And so you can always think that. There was an after party every night. I never knew about it. Paul McCartney was doing shows for like 500, this small theater all week. And everybody was like, when I saw Paul McCartney, I was like, none of us. And I mean, for me, I'm just like, well, I'm not in that circle to get asked to go there. And you're like, oh, I don't in that circle to get asked to go there. And you're like, oh, you don't get thought of and all this. And then I was talking to Tina Fey and then Tina Fey's like, she goes, I mean, she goes, what with these after parties? I mean, I haven't heard about one of them.

And she goes, and Paul McCartney is just doing shows all week. No one's telling me. And it was like, you just had that moment where you're like, nothing is as pointed as you think it is. Even because she is, if anybody should know anything, it's her. She's the one that they're like, if they ever retired, she would take over. I don't think she would, but like, it's, but if, you know, all of this stuff, if anybody would ever know anything and it's, and you just learn, I don't know, it's like a, if you're, I'd imagine probably in any business, but it's nice.

It just, there's moments you can go like, no one's. It's a good lesson for kids. Cause everyone thinks everyone's getting invited to the party with me or, or whatever. And, and usually nobody knows what's whatever. And usually nobody knows what's going on. Usually nobody knows what's going on and people will be overlooked and it'll be big people, it'll be little people and it'll be, you know, but it was just very, I don't know, it was like comforting to hear her say that where you're like, oh yeah, because I didn't hear about

everybody's like, we're going to see Paul McCartney. I'm like, no one, I didn't hear, it was like comforting to hear her say that where you're like, oh yeah, because I didn't hear about, everybody's like, we're gonna see Paul McCartney. I'm like, no one, I didn't hear about any of this. And then the, no one raised, like the after parties were just, you found out in the moment. And then you're like, you know, you're a little, I don't wanna ask, because you're like, I don't wanna show up.

And they're like, you can't come in. That's really the spot to be, I think, right? Because you're like, you get to go home, right? They're like, I didn't know I wasn't invited. But if you are invited, you're like, well, I got to go see Paul McCartney. You know, and I can't say no. You don't want to go see Paul McCartney? That's what I'm saying. You get invited, you're like, I got to, of course I got to go see Paul McCartney. But if you don't get invited, you're like, good, I can go home. But you wouldn't want to.

Well, yeah, it is the one to hassle. Yeah. I want to go back to the hotel and, uh, but, uh, if you get invited, you're like, well, of course I'm going to go see Paul McCartney. Well, win, win. Yeah. I would like see Nate outside, try to, I've hosted twice. Yeah.

That's my biggest, every after party I was going to, I was like, Oh my twice. Yeah. That's no me. My biggest every after party I was going to, I was like, Oh my gosh. Yeah. I'm going to walk up and they're going to be, who do you know here? Yeah. And they're like, we don't know you. You felt that the whole you're wearing that sweatshirt, which yeah, I got, I got all my SNL stuff. I'm hearing that George Washington painting. Yeah. and else stuff. I'm carrying that George Washington painting. Yeah. So we go, but so anyway, we found out, Sandler's the one actually told us, so we go down there, so there's like me paying, we all go to after party. And so we're all hanging out. I mean, do these, every party is, it's just, you're with all of these people the whole time. And it's just everybody, there's really, I was thinking about anybody

else you want to meet famous. It was like, it kind of is knocked out. Like I still, I mean, I would like to meet Tom Cruise, Michael Jordan, yeah, tiger, I, you know, I met him. I'd like to play golf with him maybe. And yeah, actually hang out with Brad Pitt would be fun just cause he's, you know, so big. And then I would have been still or was there and I would have liked to meet him. He didn't come to the,

I didn't see him in any of this stuff, but I know he was in the audience in the SNL. And if I would have thought about it, I would have went over to try to really search him out to meet him in that moment. Okay. But I would have liked to meet him too. But we go to over to the after party. And so it's, you know, you kind of hanging out with like, and like Peyton who the people you kind of know the most.

So I went with Peyton. You boys with Peyton now? Yeah, we, I mean, every time we're at stuff like me and Peyton kind of link up and we're gonna walk around. Yeah Buried the hatchet. Oh, yeah, we're good Yeah, I told you he called me yeah, yeah No, we talked and he he's wonderful. Yeah, so No, we talked and he's wonderful. So he's very funny too and like he's, you can just tell jokes to him and he starts laughing. He gets your like comic jokes that's kind of quick side jokes.

But it's me, Peyton, Ray, like their wives, and Laura, and we're all sitting in this upstairs and it's a walk around. So Lady Gaga, Ray Romano's like, I want to go, he's like, I want to go meet Lady Gaga. And I was like, let's just go over there and meet it. I will go up to about anybody. I enjoy it. Cause I enjoy it to like some of you just like,

I am a comedian. And so, you know, you're so used to that. And then now I do that to everybody and I still, but now they're like, yeah, I know. And whether, I think they know me from SNL. I don't, you know, some would know me from, I met Eddie Murphy. He knows me from SNL. He doesn't know me as his stand, like my stand up.

They knew it from SNL. And then, so we go to Lady Gaga, she's got a witch hat on. I think it's like kind of a witch hat. Yeah. Yeah. Sounds all right. Yeah, Yeah. And, uh, Wish Dusty were there. She, and so we go up and I was like,

Hey, nice to meet you. Very, you know, very nice. But she, so she leans in, like leans towards me and I'm kind of like not leaning towards her. Yeah. And I go, I'm a comedian. She goes, I know. And then she's leans in more and I'm still not.

And she goes, I'm trying to kiss you on the cheek and I go oh and I had to lean forward and then when I look back at it everybody that went to say hi to her she would that's her that's how like it's the European she's not European but it's like but it's like you know how they do it in France where they kiss. It's European or you get to a certain level of fame that's just how you France where they kiss. Yeah. So even a theater. It's European or you get to a certain level of fame. That's just how you start greeting each other. Yeah. Just a little on either side of the face.

Yes. I don't even know how to do that. Just once. I've never been in it, just once. I thought it was on either side. Uh, no, I think that's European. I think famous is just, you just touch cheeks basically. You don't even really kiss them.

You just touch their teeth and you do that. But I did not. Now looking back, I saw her do it to the three people before me. Yeah, but you never met her before. You don't know. I don't know if she knows. Who am I? What if you just came in hot with her? Yeah. Yeah. But it was just so funny to have her It was it was almost like it had a break character and she cuz I'm trying to kiss you on the cheek and I go oh lean all the way in And then yeah, then Ray Ray met her as a rad lean in

Yeah, he knew to lean in then he knew he's been doing this. Yeah. Yeah So they came in wolves. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't, I mean, you're like, I don't know, shake, like, you know, most of them being shake your raised hand, but you're, you don't shake people's hands.

You don't know what, you know, I don't, you know, this is, it's all where you're like, I walk up to a situation and I'm like, I don't know if you're the vibe of everybody who's nor lot of everybody's basically normal. Yeah. You know, I mean, but you have some real artists. Yeah, she's a real artist. So you have some real artists that you're like, I didn't see Ariane Grande, but if you walked up to her, you would be like, I don't want to touch her. Yeah, like, curtsy.

I thought it was like the line, you know, but that's her card from the waterslide. So when I did the waterslide sketch,

that was her first speaking. that's awesome yeah so it was cool I was gonna autograph it then I thought that might be arrogant what if you were like nah I did it I think it's very funny yeah I did I was like gonna write something and sign it then it thought thought that is, that could be. It's a little presumptuous. So I signed the Lay's potato chips and laid it next to it. And then. Signed the back of it. Yeah. Yeah. She wants to cover it up. But it was, so it was why.

Well, why was it in the room? Because it's her dressing room. Like to all her all the time dressing room Yeah, yeah, okay, so they put us all in everybody. Okay, so she wasn't just in there for the night with the car No, no, no, it's like her office. Yes, sir. Yeah, it's her office. I get why you didn't do it, but you should assign Yeah, yeah, it's yeah, it's her office. She's she's very sweet the song she did Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's her office. She's very sweet. The song she did when I hosted the first time, she did a song. It's a very, very funny song. And if you ever go listen to it, you just got to really listen to the whole song. On Weekend Update?

Yeah. And she's on Weekend Update. It's so funny about staying at a party too long. Yeah. And it's just really, really funny. And you listen to it, it's, I don't know, it's just very smart and clever. It's great. So we're hanging out in there and this rehearsal. So we're going through, there's Peyton, Jon Hamm. Jon Hamm's a fun time too. That's cool. Yeah. Jon Hamm's a guy I think you can meet him. Anybody can meet him and you're going to be like, that was the best. Talk to Ryan Reynolds. That's cool. Yeah. John Ames is a guy I think you can meet him. Anybody can meet him and you're gonna

you're gonna be like that was the best. Talk to Ryan Reynolds. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And Blake Lively. How was that? Uh, I'm on their side. I don't know. I don't really, I don't know what it is either. I don't know what it is either. Was he a fun guy? Yeah, dude. I mean, he was, yeah, he's unbelievable. He talked to, he talked to them. She was very nice too and they're, you know, seemed like some of the best people I've ever seen in my life.

And so I don't know, you know, I don't know what that other idiot's doing. He didn't talk to me. He wasn't there. Yeah, he wasn't. Was it? I don't know anything about it. Like it was, oh yeah, it's when I stood up and did my line, Quinta Brunson.

We sat at the same table at the Golden Globes because she's on Abbott Elementary. And they lost and then I cheered and the guy said, it's just us. Yeah. But it wasn't her that said it. No, it was the guy that was the producer on the show. You're like, look, here I am again, buddy. You didn't want me to cheers with you? Yeah. Still around though.

Still here. I'm always going to be here. And cheers with Lady Gaga though. Uh, so yeah, rehearsal was great. She leaned in. And that night they did a, so that night we did a toast. Uh, they did, we had a toast, uh, for Lorne in the rainbow room. Uh huh. And never been up there. You've seen it always like on the sign. So the toast was very fun. Oh, that's me down there. So Wally, who holds the cue cards, he gave me a hat. So if you zoom in, you see me talking to Spielberg. Oh, yeah. I was just chatting it up. Yeah, and I got two hats on.

I forgot I put that... Because Wally just gave me his hat and I put it over the other hat. And then now I'm just talking to Spielberg got two hats on. I forgot I put that because Wally just gave me his hat and I put it over the other hat and then now I'm just talking to Spielberg and two hats on. Uh, Spielberg said, cause you know, he's only been on the show one time as a cameo and he, but his history with the show is he's been coming to it. He was at the first episode in 1975. Wow. Wow.

So he just did Jaws and he flew in, flew in and he goes, you know, and I had enough credibility that they, he goes, I got to sit in the last row. And he watched it with Carlin, the first episode. And then he goes to the after party and said, John Belushi came up to him and was like, you're the one that did that shark movie, right? He goes, yeah, yeah. And so he said he came every Saturday for that first season. So he would fly from LA on Friday and come Saturday, take American

airlines flight, fly in Saturday. And then you have business interests in that that or was it just like the hang? He just liked it. Yeah. No, I mean, cause he hasn't, you would think he's like host there and he's been, he was going to do a cameo there and they, in the close encounters thing. Uh, but then they kind of, I think they kind of pulled it. I imagine I think he wanted to sit.

It was a very funny line. To see live. Yeah, well I watched, when they do the rehearsals of the Close Encounters with Kate McKinnon, she's the funniest person ever. And so they had it, they brought her in, they go, and special guest, the director of Star Wars, Steven Spielberg, and he, and then Steven Spielberg goes, you wouldn't believe how many people come up to you.

I'm sure. And think I did Star Wars. Yeah. But yeah, so he, you thought he would be on the show. He's just been going to the show since 1975. Just a friend of the show. A friend of the show, had one cameo, loves it. It's very interesting.

He went all the first season because that show was nothing. It wasn't very good. People just thought it was. I have it on DVD. I watched them. They showed the first episode Saturday night. Yeah. It's not good, but that was just a filler show that nobody thought would go anywhere.

But it would probably fun to see live. Oh yeah. You know, yeah. If you got to know them, everything's, you know,'s like we see paul simon. I think was the second Musical guest. Yeah. Yeah, it's really great. Yeah uh, that was a funny line when for them sabrina carter's because Uh, 19 i played 19 because I wasn't born neither were my parents. Yeah, that was very funny Yeah, I don't know. That's true. It might be true

You know, I bet the math checks out the met. Yeah, I mean I'm 79 How would Sabrina Carr 20? She's probably a little older than that. But uh, so you said you met Eddie Murphy What was that like? So we go to the so Friday night or so Friday night was The concert Saturday night was a we had a couple things to we was It was Saturday night was a, we had a couple things. Tuesday, we was, it was a toast for Lorne. So it was very cool to get invited to it because it was, you know, it was a very small group that was, or like a hundred people, but I mean, out of the people that are going there, it was not a large group that got invited to that. So to go up there, and so I get up there, and you know, it's like this point, before

we were going to dinner, so I'm walking, I was supposed to go meet Spade for dinner. And I told him, like Spade's like, are you going to come? And I was like, yeah, I'm coming. And so he picks a restaurant, because I didn't have anything. I was like, I'll just go meet you, then we're just going, let's go to Lawrence, and then Chris Rock turned 60 this weekend, and so he was having a birthday party. So we were like, we'll go to this. I know this all sounds crazy, so just bear with me that I just am talking through it all. You just got back from there. I just got back from there. I know, but I don't, people listen, I'm not anybody. I don't, you know.

So, because this, it's about to sound crazier and then so okay I'm coming down my hotel about to leave to go meet Spade Steve Martin comes in so then we start talking which I did a corporate gig with Steve Martin and now you know I've got to talk to him a good bit and Martin shorts there they're gonna go eat in the restaurant there I'm like I gotta go meet Spade they're like well just come they you know they're like they're like well just come out I'll go up there with y'all for a little bit. I'll just sit with y'all for a second.

I was waiting for a car to come out anyway. And so I go up and then we sit there and then you're just sitting there and it's like, you know. Just you three? Yeah, and Steve Martin's wife. So just me, Martin Schwartz, Steve Martin and his wife. And then we're just talking very, it's like, yeah, it's crazy, dude, in a blocked off restaurant. And so we're talking and I'm like, you know,

it's like where you got to go and now I'm, Spade's there and I'm like, I got to go. And then I'm getting close to like trying to somehow get out of there because I just don't want to be rude to Spade. And then Conan comes in, Conan O'Brien. So then Conan comes in. So now it's just me, Conan, Steve Martin, Martin Short. And we're all just talking. So, but I ended up, I was like, we hung out for a second. Then I, so I got, I got a great hang there.

And then I went and met Spade and he wasn't that mad at me. But it was, I apologized very much. So then, so I go sit with Spade and then we go to Lawrence. We walk in and everybody is in there. Eddie Murphy, Chappelle. Eddie Murphy I was like pretty pumped about because I was like, you want to go meet him.

You know just because it's like I don't know he's like you don't see him you don't you know like you just hear the comics that know him but then other people don't feel like don't know him at all. So they were doing a toast and it was like Tom Hanks gave a toast and whoever Seth Meyers, Tina Fey, and then Brian, a guy who worked with the NBC gave a toast. They gave, you know, a gift to Lorne and it was very, met Kristen Wiig there, went over to meet her. I think she's so funny. Yeah, she's great. And so went up to Eddie. Eddie, I talked to him for, he knew me from SNL but did not know me, is it? I think, you know, I think he knew I was a stand-up

maybe from SNL, but he only knew me from the sketches. But it was very cool, very nice. Chevy Chase yelled something out during the toast. Yeah, it was when Tom Hanks was up there. What did he say? I don't, it was just, I couldn't really understand it, but well, he's, I think he's difficult. I think he's a lot. And he's a lot. And he was a lot this, I think he was a lot this weekend. Yeah. He has a history of that. As a fan of the show, my complaint about watching last night is, and I know you can't have everybody

on, but he's somebody, it seems like, he would have had in something. He does not do himself favors. I'll tell you that. I'll tell you that from there. They brought up, I mean, they even say like, they all go, there wouldn't be an SNL if it wasn't for Chevy Chase. Because he was the star. When, so when that show came out, he, I mean, he was a huge hit. So people were tuning in.

It seems like for him, he was that big of a star and he left after one year. So he was only there one year. And so I feel, you know, but he's got this report. I think I probably told you when I shot my pilot, I mentioned him playing my dad or something in the pilot. And they were like, no, no, they're not. Absolutely not. And so I don't get to see, when you hear about actors or Hollywood stuff, people are kind

of like act crazy. You don't really see it, but sometimes I do want, you're like, I kind of want to see what, what do they mean? And I saw it this weekend. That's fine. Yeah, it was, I mean, so you just see it, Tom Hanks is talking. He does it to Tom Hanks. He just says like a side comment, we're all in this room,

it's quiet, you know, and everybody's in there has this history. I want to know what he said. These 50, I mean, it was, it didn't really matter. It was like just, what he said didn't really matter. It was, you know, it was, I don't know, just like, it wasn't about him. Yeah, yeah.

It was just something like, at the moment wasn't about him. And so he said something to make it about him. Yeah. And so he's standing there and you're like, and he just sits in it, dude. That's the craziest part is he'll say something and then just sit in it. He doesn't, uh, you know, you don't like back away. You don't like quietly. I mean, he's tall, his head's over everybody.

He says it, everyone, no one likes it. It's obvious. No one likes it. And then obvious. No one likes it. And then he just sits and then he just says and sits in there. And then I thought, then someone was walking up to him. I thought, maybe they're going to be like, all right, why don't y'all just probably head on out. They brought him a chair.

He sat down because they brought him a chair. He just sat down. He was like, maybe that was it. He was tired. down. He was like, maybe that was it. He was tired. There's like a weird, you know, history there where, yeah, I think he's very difficult and he can be mean or he can be people, he rubs people the wrong way and all this kind of stuff. And I know I've actually, there's comics that I have met him that know him that have never had that experience. And they said he's very nice. So it's like one where you're just kind of outside.

You're like, this is y'all's thing. I don't really know. But you did get to see it a little bit this week. I mean, because he's just going to yell something at any point. So there's Saul Robert De Niro. He was there. Didn't I meet him? I made a business decision as he walked by.

I was like, I could do it. Yeah. Cause he was walking right by me. We made eye contact where I was like, I could go, Hey, and, uh, he doesn't, he doesn't have a vibe that feels like you want to. It doesn't seem like he does. I bet he walks with an urgency. You don't want to interrupt him.

I mean, it seems the people that knew him, he seemed, he smiled and gave hugs. And if he doesn't know you, there's no, it doesn't feel, I wouldn't say it's even being like rude. It's just, you know, he's, he's, Is he short? He's a little bit. Yeah, he's a little bit shorter than me, but nothing insane. Like you wouldn't be like blown away, but I'll show you. But he's, you know, when he goes by, you're like, you know, you just kind of let it go. You're like, all right, I don't need to, you know, I mean, I thought it right in that moment. I was like, all right, I could meet Robert De Niro right now. I could say hi. He's going to shake

my hand because he's going to have to. Even though he wouldn't know me, but just because what are you gonna do? But then I just thought, you know, you go, let's just let him go. What about Jack Nicholson? I did not even see Jack Nicholson. He was at, I know he was not at any of the stuff and he came to the, you can hear the fire hydrant, yeah, fire hydrant, yeah, a little bit. To our fire hydrants here make noise. But he was at the show and I know he introduced Adam, he introduced Sandler in that song,

but I didn't even see him. I would have liked to seen him in person, but I didn't even- I don't think he gets out much anymore. I don't think he does anymore. I mean, he's older. Like, I mean, and so he doesn't go to Laker games anymore. And, um, but it was, it was very nice that he was there. And I think him and Sandler are very, very close.

And that's cool. Um, yeah, they did a movie together. Yeah. Anger management. Yeah. Anger management. Yeah. And so him and Sandler stay, it seems like they, you know, talk to each other and it's cool.

A good bit. And, uh, so yeah, when I was, I'm trying to think when I was up there, anything, you know, talk to each other and it's cool. A good bit. So yeah, when I was, I'm trying to think when I was up there, anything, you know. Madonna? So then I go, so then we go to Chris Rock's 60th party and it's, we go in there and it's, you know, so it's everybody, you know, again, you're just the same people, Seinfeld, like we're all hanging out, it's Chris's birthday party. And so it was very fun and cool, we're hanging out, everybody's talking, whatever. And then Madonna comes in. And so this guy, Guy O'Seary, he's her manager.

And he just is like the dude. He runs everything. So I met him, so he was, I met him with Sacha Baron Cohen and they were all at the cellar one night when I went up. And he, so he watched me and then he was like, he just kept going crazy and he's like, let me know when you come to LA. So he brings over Madonna, he was like,

you gotta meet this guy. So I met Madonna and she goes, what? She goes, I'm a comedian, you know, you're like, and she goes, what's your, she goes, tell me She goes, I go, I'm a comedian, you know, you're like, and she, she goes, what's your, she goes, tell me your name and I'll, I will go look you up. And I was like, oh, Nate Bargatze, I'm a comedian. And then we took a picture because they were just a professional photographer taking pictures. I'm going to try to find that picture. I don't know how to get these pictures. Just you and Madonna.

It's me, Madonna, and I think Guy, her manager. But it's, uh... I'm going to look through Get look through game in a minute. Yeah, I don't you know, but would it be Getty? Because it was like a private photographer. I don't know unless they were You know going to do it But it was yes, so she was she was you know her and share I told share hi But I mean, you know, her and Cher, I told Cher hi, but I mean, you know, Cher's older. I mean, it's crazy, dude.

Dusty has a crush on Cher. Oh yeah. Well, Cher and Younger Albums looks amazing. Yeah. Unbelievable. Like I had no idea. I only knew old Cher my whole life. Oh yeah. Look at that. Yeah, that's not us.

Yeah. But you know what? Is there a picture? Keep going, because I actually need something. From the Golden Globes? Yeah. Is there one of me in the rock? Well, you had one that you showed us. Matt Rice and Nikki Glaser. There's one of me in the rock.

There you go. No, all right. Look at you in the rock. I know. There was a, my head is, God. Well, you're next to the rock. It doesn't matter, it's like the- Looks like he's leaning in for a kick. My body goes in and it goes back out.

Like, I don't think you're supposed to do that. Your body's not supposed to come in and go back out. It's a sharp out. I look like the top of a house. And my head looks like a chimney. I mean, oh God. I've got to get it together. 75 Hard has been hard. I can tell you that.

I've not been doing it just so everybody, but I will. I am doing it. Starting now. I'm starting again Wednesday. Oh, it's you and baby Reindeer. Yeah, she was very nice. She's unbelievable in that. Yeah, she's so good in that show. Unbelievable. Like you just buy there was another one someone took. So then we, we're talking, so me and Madonna and you're, you know, it is crazy, you're just like someone that doesn't even feel like a real person. Yeah. So. Aaron thought she was dead. Oh yeah. She's been famous for like 45 years now.

Right. Yeah. I mean, pretty much. Yeah. It's crazy. So, uh, yeah, then we go, uh, so what is that? That's Saturday night and Sunday night is the show. So we've done rehearsal. We did go to rehearsal again. I do every night. You're not going to bed till four, easily, till four o'clock. We go do rehearsal, then we have the show. So everybody saw the show. The show's great. It's fun. And we all do that.

Then we had the after party afterwards. We got over to it very quickly. I think by the time we got there it was probably 12 or 12.30. And then it is 3.30 within eight minutes. You've been around everybody kind of all week, but But they're having the legendary, everybody's there. And it's, I mean, John Kerry was there. It's crazy. And so you're just all sitting, everybody's just in the room together. And it's, I mean, really, I was like, what time is it? And it's, cause you're just hanging out and you're thinking

it might, it could, maybe it's seven 30 and it's three 30. You didn't black out. You didn't black out. No. Okay. You said John Kerry was there and then you lost three hours. Yeah. Oh yeah.

I'm not sure nothing shady went down. Yeah. John Kerry showed up. Maybe wasn't there. Maybe was, maybe, yeah. I'm not sure nothing shady went down. Mm-hmm. Yeah, John Kerry showed up. Maybe he wasn't there. Yeah. Maybe he was, maybe he wasn't there. It feels like a dark present. Guys, isn't it crazy? John Kerry was there last night?

Are you doing all right now? But there, it was, this was my dressing room. So they put us all in a dressing room. Very, very cool dressing room. Not a bad group. Not a bad group. Peyton, Dave Chappelle, Ray Romano, and myself. Only me and Ray were in there.

We used it. Peyton and Chappelle, we did not... We did not see them in our room. We were hanging out. I actually got to hang out with Chappelle. Was it the first time? I mean, I've met him and stuff, but it was the first time I think we've ever... I didn't ever really knew he knew Yeah, he would always say He'd always be like hey, what's up like he way he talks to comics, but there's never like any Difference between me and just when I met him 20 years ago

Yeah, yeah, and so we actually talked this time and he was he was very very nice. Oh, that's awesome so yeah, it was very very nice. Oh that's awesome. Yeah so yeah it was very very cool and but it was yeah so then yeah we go to the after party I think I have a couple videos so there's one of Sabrina Carper you're singing a thing. Sabrina Carper came came up and you know the she jumped on stage and sang and This is the Roots. Yeah. The Roots are the backing band.

Yep. Yep. Yeah. All right. So, and then. She related to the Carpenters? You know Sabrina Carpenter? Yeah.

No. But I mean, is she like a part of the Carpenter family? I think she is. I would guess. I'm sure. A Carpenter? Probably. Yeah. The band, the Carpenters? Yeah. No, no, no. I think so. Yeah, I mean just... That would have been her grandparents if it was. Yeah. Man, I don't think so. I don't think

of the last name like Carpenter. Yeah. And the music business. I'm sure she is. Let's just assume she is. I'm not going to find this out. Yeah. Yeah. she has like three or four of the biggest songs in the world right now yeah no she was born in 99 so truly her parents she's born 99 her parents if they had her at if they were had her at 20 they'd have been born in 79 yeah so even like if they're born in 77 they were 23. Yeah. So very easily. Yeah. She is the niece of the voice of Bart Simpson. Oh wow. Isn't that weird? How about that? So yeah, she got up and sang Brandy Carlile, who I said in front of, or she said in front of me at... She's unreal. She's unreal. Yeah.

She really got this party started. So everybody was like hanging out talking and then they, you know, they have it in there where everybody's going to go and play. No one, it wasn't really playing. They were like Questlove is DJing. And then everybody's going in there. It was like, all right.

And then Busta Rhymes got up there. And so you're like, oh, here we go. And then I'll be honest with you, he talked for quite a while. He just started talking and everybody's like, everybody's like, all right, all right. And then, I mean, he did like one little, I played, I don't know if he did one little song,

but really did not do, and then she got up and sang this, and this like got it rolling. And so this was when the, when I forget what she sang, but it was, you know, it was like awesome. And she's, she's, yeah, unbelievable. She was, she was, yeah, very, very nice. Yeah, that was it. And we were trying to leave him at Emma Stone, which I was excited about. Yeah, that was exciting. Yeah, she, very nice. Yeah, that was it. And we were trying to even met Emma Stone, which I was excited about.

Oh, yeah. She's, yeah, she's very cool. Yeah. She seems cool. She seems like a norm- yeah. She seems like a norm person. And she definitely, she definitely was. She had a dress that had like these pockets that were built in and when she showed up at SNL, they poured, she had popcorn poured.

I saw that. Yeah, I saw a picture of that. Yeah, yeah. And then so, but she was awesome. And that's kind of your thing with the hoodie. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. That's the next step.

This would have been your, yeah. So yeah, you know, I'm sure I'm missing some people. I was told to ask about the singer in the restaurant. Oh yeah. I have a video of that. We're going to the restaurant. We're eating at look at this guy. So he's singing quietly.

So there's, if you can't hear there's so, so, the funniest thing is, that restaurant's where I was eating with Martin Short and them, and we walked back there and no one's back there, and Martin Short, he goes, I just have one question, he goes, this is not going to be in use tonight, and they go, no, and he goes, thank you. Which is very funny, because you know, you're like, you see a piano, you're like, I don't want this piano playing. Yeah. And he was like, he was, I mean, he was like joking about it, but he was like,

yeah, no one wants a piano. Like, but this guy, this is brunch and he sings and I just thought it was impressive. I actually liked it. He kind of sings like kind of back and quiet. Like it was quieter than a radio. Yeah. And it wasn't as invasive. quieter than a radio. Yeah. And it wasn't as invasive.

Is that the word? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah, so I thought that was pretty fun. Yeah, intrusive too. Intrusive. Yeah. And invasive, either works.

I would say intrusive is probably more appropriate. Isn't invasive a surgery? Yeah. Intrusive's better. But they invade. Yeah. It kind of looks like the comic, Kell Irk sign does he does a little bit Right. I like that. He's like makes his face. He leans back

It's like the whole point of it is I imagine when he tried out Ray Charles things going Yeah, we tried off his gig. They go. I mean they go we want no noise Yeah, and you could have a normal it was better than if you had music playing on the, this guy, I was very impressed. Cause it was nice to have some kind of, you have music in your, I mean at first you're like, Oh my God. Cause every, everywhere is so loud. It's crazy how loud it is. Yeah. Places. Yeah. Do you want, I guess you don't want us to talk. No, no. I think they want people to leave. Yeah, I don't I think they don't want you to do every store Just wants you to leave the restaurant wants you to leave. Nobody wants you in there. Yeah. Yeah

Yeah, I don't even want you to buy. It's just a storefront for you to buy online later was a thing to carve you there He was not I mean, he was not. I mean, he's one of my all time favorites and I don't think they showed him. I mean, they showed. They showed the church lady. Yeah, they did, but he wasn't in. I don't think he, I think, I don't think he, he just couldn't make it. I think he was, he was invited and supposed to come.

Yeah. He just something he couldn't make it. Uh, it was a lot of that, like some, I mean, not everybody can make it there and, you know, and they did the 40th 10 years ago. So, but it's interesting because it's like, that was the 50th, Lauren's coming back. And it's, you know, you're like, all right, I don't, I mean, what are you going to do? Like, this was a kind of a big blowout. I mean, you can't be like 56 or something or, and Lauren wants to wants to I mean dude he wants to work and that guy is up like he I left before him and we let way I got back to adult

for I think he's 82 yeah but I got back at 4 a.m. and which is that was that today was like we had to get up at 9 I I didn't go to sleep to like, I probably fell asleep at like five something, nine. I mean, I mean, it's just, uh, what a crazy weekend. But yeah, I know it was just a lot of me talking about this. No, I wanted to hear about it. I didn't even know you were at this thing. I'm watching it with Lucy. All of a sudden you just stand up. I was like, what? Oh yeah. I was like, Kate, this guy's everywhere. Yeah. Laura's texting Lucy all, Lucy loves all the SNL stuff. This is what got her into comedy was Amy. I mean, she got emotional watching you talk to

Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. I mean, we have little like dolls of them at our house from when she was in high school. And then you're talking to her. I mean, it was crazy. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah. It was, yeah. I mean, look, to get to be any part of the show is unbelievable. And that's why I was invited to all this stuff. And it's like where you do go, you just kind of like in a little bit, like you're there, but then you also try not to be, because you're like, this is a history of people have 30 years with this show and 20 years and all this. That's the way to be. You don't want to come in and the opposite is like, Cali, you know,

Nate's a nightmare dude. Just, he only hosted us twice. He hosted twice. And he thinks, I go, uh, when was the last time Meryl Streep's been here? That was the first time she's ever been there. Really? Yeah. I would assume she hosted it 15 times.

No, no. I don't like that. Huh? I don't like that. Why? Because she gets to be in a sketch and she's never even been on the show where there, again, some of these favorites of mine that didn't get to do one. Yeah.

Like who didn't get to do one? Well, he wasn't there. David, Dana Carvey, Chevy Chase. Again, these, so your Chevy does not do, Bill Murray did a sketch. Bill Murray did a thing. Bill Murray was there. He was on weekend. He shouted out Chevy Chase too. Yeah. Yeah. And was Jane Curtin there? Who? Is it Chevy Chase or Chevy Chase? Chevy. Chevy. Chevy. Mr. Chase. Jane Curtin. I don't know. One of the original. Yeah. Coneheads. Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They did a, uh, SNL leading up to it, did a bracket where people got to vote on all time. Greatest character and, uh, George Washington one. No, but there

was someone there when it first started that you could argue, you know, should be on there before, before that one. And, um, I'm drawing a blank on, uh, Bill Hader's character, uh, Stefan, Stefan won. Oh, he won the whole thing. Yeah. I think there was some recency bias. Oh, for sure.

I think he beat out Chris Farley's Man Down by the River. OK. Yeah. Well, he only did that once. Yeah. Stephon came back a lot. Stephon was a lot. He did more than once, but wasn't a lot.

But yeah, there's so many iconic, you know, Wayne's World and things like that. Yeah, I was thinking about that this weekend about this show is like, cause you know when they go back and show highlights of it and all this stuff, it tends to be that error of those guys. I saw a documentary on SNL and one of the producers said, everyone's favorite

cast is the one from your junior year of high school or junior high school. Cause that's when you're most into that type of humor. I guess so. I mean, yeah, it was the David Spade, Chris Farley, Mike Myers, Phil Hartman era for me that I, that I love. But I mean, don't you think like, is there a lot of reoccurring characters now as there were back then? I mean, Domingo, I guess, you know,

that Domingo thing is kind of came back. I mean, I've done Washington twice now. Yeah, yeah. But is- Three times basically. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. But it's, yeah, so I wonder, you know, it's like when you would see, I don't know, it's like when you would see I don't know it was when they even I was watching the highlights

They really show It's heavy from one Kind of big errors like the Tina Fey wolf feral spade Sandler like all in that kind of chunk is Kristen Wiig Sudeikis, and you know, but yeah. I mean, look, I think it's a show that can, there's no show like it. TV needs a show that's been on forever. It's an American institution. Yeah. It really is. And it's about the only place developing. The last, shut up. What is it? Yeah, cross-section. It's the last, um, shut up. Cross-section last grade. It's the last great American entertainment institution.

No intersection of cross section of America. It's definitely not that. The most famous person to ever come out of SNL. Sandler. Yeah. Adam Sandler, I think I might say Eddie Murphy. Mike Myers is Mike Myers too with Shrek and Austin Powers. I mean Shrek alone is, you know.

He is. He's up there. Could be Eddie Murphy. I don't think he gets recognized as Shrek though. I know that he is Shrek, but you know what I mean? It's not like that. Wayne's World, Austin Powers. Eddie Murphy was in Shrek.

And Glorious Basterds. He's in that first scene. I mean, Chevy Chase was pretty big back in the day. Yeah, but I mean, overall, I mean, it could be Eddie Murphy or Sandler. I would think Sandler is just, he was there longer, more associated with it, and he is enormous. Yeah. David Spade too, though. I mean, he's had many TV shows, been around, but lots of, I mean, I guess he's in all the Sandler movies, but. Well, there's so many. Will Ferrell, I mean, he's had many TV shows, been around, but lots of, I mean, I guess he's in all the Sandler movies, but. Well, there's so many. Will Ferrell, I mean, there's just a ton of. Yeah, forgot about Will Ferrell. And there's a lot. Very cool that you were even at this thing, let alone a part of it. So.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was, yeah, it was a wonderful, wonderful weekend. So, all right. Well, this weekend, I'm gonna be in Morris Hill, North Carolina. It's very similar to what you just went through. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it goes good, nice.
