Already? My goodness. By the way, baseball, who wants to put a bet that season's going to get canceled? Canceled? It's going to get canceled. I mean, there's so many sick people out there. Fucking virus is going through ML baseball. It's like a nursing home in Wuhan. Jesus H. Christ, let it go. It ain't going to happen.

Yesterday, we had over 5,000 people watching. Well over 5,000 for the premiere at 5 o'clock. Do you understand? I can't thank you guys enough for that.

Please make sure to subscribe to the Nick DiPaolo Show channel on YouTube. We are at 149,000. So I want to kick it up. I want to hit that 150 mark. I mean, when I went to bed last night, the show, yesterday's show was at 49,000. Pretty good. Thanks to those of you who chat live during the premiere at 5 o'clock. As you know, YouTube has been limiting us, so we really appreciate those of you who submit the super chats. Here's my date.

Jesus Christ. September 17th through 19th, Plaza Hotel and Casino Vegas. October 2nd, Jonathan's in Agunquit, Maine. October 10th, Stand Up Live, Huntsville, Alabama. October 11th,

the Zany's Comedy Club, Nashville, Tennessee. November 19th, The Improv in Raleigh, North Carolina. Go to nickdip.com. Remember yesterday, I was talking about COVID and how the Democrats I believe now

after months of watching this and shit it's becoming more clear that it's a bit of a ploy. Real quickly, somebody wrote an article by Sundance Conservative Treehouse, whatever the fuck that is. But it's conservatives.

And whoever wrote it said, the virus narrative is scheduled to expire on November 4th, meaning the day after the election, right? But these are the reasons this person says, and they're all great points, that Democrats need this COVID thing without covid 19 panic democrats cannot easily achieve mail-in voting which they desperately need in key battleground states in order to control the outcome without covid 19 panic democrats cannot shut down rallies and

political campaigning efforts by trump which they desperately need to do in key battleground states. Without COVID-19 panic, Democrats cannot block the campaign contrast between an energetic President Trump and a physically and mentally compromised challenger. President Trump and a physically and mentally compromised challenger. Without COVID-19 panic, Democrats do not have an excuse for canceling the DNC convention in Milwaukee, thereby blocking team Bernie Sanders from visible opposition while protecting candidate gibberish for himself without covet 19 panic democrats do not have a mechanism to keep voters isolated from each other limiting communication and national debate adverse to their interests uh again great point

without covert 19 panic democrat democrats cannot keep their blue state economies easily shut down again, great point. Without COVID-19 panic, Democrats cannot keep their blue state economies easily shut down and continue to block U.S. economic growth. All thriving economies are against the political interests of the Democrats, naturally. Without COVID-19 panic, Democrats cannot easily club candidate Joe Biden sealed in the basement where the electorate is not exposed to his visible signs of dementia.

Without COVID-19 panic, it becomes more difficult for big tech to censor voices that would outline the fraud and scheme. Without COVID-19 panic, they have a better method and excuse. Bingo. Without COVID-19 panic, Democrats cannot advance influence or organize their preferred presidential debate format, a virtual presidential debate series. Argue with any of those. Why do you think you see the governors and all the blue states, I mean the mayors of all these cities? Huh? Oh, we got to shut it all down again.

Just not believe in it. There's enough doctors out there other than Fauci saying it is total horseshit, the mask and everything. And again, I told you the most important number, because it's about dying from this really. Most important number is what? Fatality rate. And again, if you're under 70 years old, you have a 0.014 or 4.1 chance of getting it and having it kill you.

All right? For the love of Christ, take off your fucking masks. Enjoy your life. It's almost over anyways. Talking about myself, obviously. People love the show. You know, you think the left, you think the left is the only political party that indoctrinates kids? You know, they get them while they're young. You know what I mean? Well, that's what I'm doing. I'm starting my movement because we have to start indoctrates kids. You know, they get them while they're young. You know what I mean? Well, that's what I'm doing. I'm starting my movement because we have to start indoctrinating kids to the truth.

Okay? And some of my fans are doing it too. We get them while they're really young. I'm not talking second, third grade. Check out this kid soaking in the knowledge. Ha ha! Head aboard, Billy. You're gonna eat like me

and you're gonna cry. And I'll tell you another thing. Frankly, you're beginning to smell. Ha ha ha ha ha. Is that a girl or a boy? I don't care. Soaking it in. Uh-oh. Look it, that kid wants me.

All right. Staring at me like I get breast milk. Waiting. I love it. God, did that make my day. Need more evidence? How about the pic of this kid? Look at him in his little jets.

That's how I watch the news, by the way. I have a onesie. He is focused on Nick DiPaolo. Is he not? Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. He doesn't like the dirty stuff. Oh, come on, kid. Toughen up. Look at that. You're watching the indoctrination to the truth. Me and Donald Trump Jr. Laying it out for Jr. here. Oh my God, I want to kiss that kid.

And I don't have COVID. Don't worry about it. Look at all the toys and shit. I didn't have that. My father threw me a claw hammer and some nails. Here's a blowtorch. See if you can figure that out, Nicky. Thank you guys for those clips and pictures.

Yesterday, pretty interesting. Some more footage, not that it matters now, came out of George Floyd from a different angle the day of the tragedy, which it was. But he's clearly out of his frigging mind. Okay? And where is this? Can I ask you, where's this footage been? Not that it would make a difference. I'm just saying it would put it into perspective a little bit.

Do you know what I'm saying? Who's been sitting on this? So here it is from another angle. And George Floyd's clearly on drugs or out of his mind. He definitely has mental issues again. Again, doesn't mean he should have died, but check it out. It is. Hey, man, let me see your other hand.

I'm sorry. Let me see your other hand. Both hands. Show the fucking other hand, George. Right now. Look, he's got one. What do we do? Put your hand up there. Put your hand up there. Pause. Look, he's got one.

Pause. He hasn't done a thing yet that the cop asked him. Why is that? You know how many clips I've seen like this or watching the show Cops with young black dudes going, I ain't doing anything. The cops are giving orders and they were ignoring them. I mean, what the fuck? The cops got his his gun out that should be enough to make you shit your

pants normally good hands on the wheel hands on the wheels you're fucking crazy what back in yeah man and I got I got shot the same way as I was before. Okay well when I say let me see your hands you put your hands off. I'm so sorry. You got him? Dang man. Put your hands on top of your head. Hands on top of your head. Hands on top of your head. See? Hands on top of your head. Hands on top of your head.

See? Just ignoring. Step out of the vehicle and step away from me, all right? Step out and face away. Step out and face away. I'm not going to shoot you. Step out and face away. Please don't shoot me.

Honestly. Step out and face away. Step out and face away. Step out and face away. Please don't shoot me, Mr. Officer. Please don't shoot me, man. Step out and face away. You're not shooting me, man? I'm not shooting you. Step out and face away. Okay, okay, okay. Please. Please, please, man. Please. Please. I didn't know, man. Get out of the car.

I didn't know, Mr. Officer. I didn't know, man. Get out of the car. I didn't know it was out there. I didn't know it was there. Stop resisting. What the hell is going on right now? Stop moving. Put your hands on your back then. I'm not going to do nothing. Hey, look at that. Stay in the car.

Stop resisting, man. Still resisting. All right. All right. Can we get to the other one? Are you on something right now? I'm not on nothing. Let's go.

Let's go. God, man. Yes. Yes, I was just moving earlier. Let's go. Let's go. Yes. Yes, I was just moving earlier. Let's go. All right, let me come on down now. This is going to look better now. Keep walking.

Okay, do me one favor, man. No, before we get to the car, let's get to the car, man. Come on. Dang, man. Oh, man. God, don't leave me, man. Thank you, man. Thank you, man. He definitely has mental issues.

If he's not on drugs. Stand up. Stop falling down. Stay on your feet and face the car door. Not doing anything the cops tell him. Get out the door, man. I don't want to talk to you, man. Please, let me talk to you. Please. You ain't listening to nothing we're saying, so we're not going to listen to nothing you're saying. I'm not resisting as he resists By the way was that kind of guy. He's got an arrest record. Now he's claustrophobic for real, Mr. Officer. You got him? Could you please back up for me, please? Yes, I'll back up.

I will. Please stay with me, man. Thank you. God, man. I didn't know I was gonna do that to you, man. Please, man. That's what my hands do. What's wrong with none of y'all, man?

Nothing. You got it. Inside any pocket, little book on your side? I'm listening. And I understand that people do so. All right, guys. This is the last one. Okay.

Okay. Grab a seat. I'll roll the windows down, okay? Take a seat. I'm going in. I'm going in. No, you're not. I got to go in. Take a seat.

Grab a seat, man. I don't believe you. I'm not that kind of guy. I'm not that kind of guy, man. What kind of guy are you? What kind of people are you, Henry? All right, we get it. I can't watch that.

Anyways, and you know what happens at the end. If he gets into the car and does what the cops say, guess what? He's still alive today. The country's not burning. Statues aren't being pulled down. Wendy's aren't being burned to the ground. People aren't being shot, beat up by Antifa. All that if he complied.

Again, doesn't deserve to die, obviously. I don't know what the cop was thinking. But all these cases, Eric Garner, all of them, Michael, what was his name? Michael Brown. All of them. What do they all have in common? Resist resistance.

If he got in the car, it would change fucking history. I'm sure something else would have sparked it later on. But that was good footage that people, you know, that's what cops deal with around the clock. Anyways. Mama, son. Speaking of Antifa, this is a great clip. I think it was on Twitter or whatever. It says, badass patriot.

I think it was on Twitter or whatever. It says, Badass Patriot. So I click on it, and this kid, this guy wades into a bunch of Antifa guys. He's obviously a right-winger or whatever, and he doesn't like the shit, and he's not having any more of it. So watch him wade, these privileged white kids. Otherwise, you're an anarchist. You guys going skiing?

You guys going skiing today? He's fucking with them already. I can ask people questions, bro. You guys, don't put your hand on me. Don't put your hand on me. Don't put your hand on me. If you put your hand on me again, it's going to be a problem. No, that's going to be a problem.

It ain't no problem. It ain't no problem. Why? There shouldn't be a problem. This't no problem. Ain't no problem. Why? There shouldn't be a problem. This is America. I should be able to talk and walk wherever I want, right? Isn't that what you guys stand for? For the freedom and no government and all that bullshit, right?

No, we're building a wall. Right? We're building a wall. Don't give me that. You don't weigh enough, little boy. You're underage, dude. You're underage. Hey, somebody get this child out of my face, please.

Motherfucker. Yo. Hey, so anyways. You got your. Hey, don't touch me. Hey, somebody get this child out of my face, please. Motherfucker. You know. Hey, so anyways. You got your. Hey, hey, hey. Don't touch me. Hey, don't. Don't touch me.

Don't touch me. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. That is one for you, bitch.

See when the rubber hits the road? How afraid they are? You know what I mean? That's why, I don't know, we all saw how feckless their efforts are when they had Chopped and Chaz. They just, you know what I mean? When it comes face-to-face to the biggest

Oh, in our Florida segment today. Fucking Florida. Oh, my God. Staying on the tension racially in this country, the Aryan nation will rule the world white supremacist goes berserk in florida restaurant is it me or florida restaurant's

most dangerous places whether it's a burger king a mcdonald's everywhere there's food there's fucking violence excuse me a self-declared white supremacist tattooed with swastikas. That doesn't give you away, does it? Went on a profanity-laced tirade at a Florida restaurant where he struck a female worker and threatened to sexually assault the woman seated at a table. He's got tattoos all over him catchy little tune

you need about 8 fucking bags of meth sit down with a pencil We are all at fault now. We are all to blame. Catchy little tune. You need about eight fucking bags of meth. Sit down with a pencil. Anyways, the lunatic identified as Nicholas Arnold Shock 36 of Huachula was caught on video Friday at Pop's Sunset Grill yelling that he is a white supremacist. The Aryan nation will rule the world. People covered in tattoos will be my closest relatives. So you're going to hang out with Justin Bieber the rest of your fucking life?

Fucking Madonna. I promise you he shouted at the eatery in Nokomis, a town along the Gold Coast near Venice. Hey, my brother lives down there somewhere. I wonder if he saw the shit. Here's the video of this fucking lunatic coming into the restaurant, and a waitress tries to stop him. You got the video, right?

Please, somebody call Donald Trump. Oh, yeah. You got knocked the fuck out, man. Oh, God. My brother's fucking his. I swear to God. That waitress. I hope you left a good tip after that. That was uncalled for.

Slapping. That's how my dad used to fucking hit me. Only I'd stay on my feet in time to get the belt. I don't mean to laugh, lady, but get the fuck, the guy's got tattoos, he's on drugs. Excuse me, sir, you got to have a shirt and a mask.

Bang! Take that, you, what kind of people are these, Henry? Two men then accosted Shark as he walked through the outside seating area of the restaurant with his shorts unbuttoned while making a sexual threat to a guest. Who hasn't done that? I did that at IHOP in high school. I was all fucked up. I was going to bang a 70-year-old holster.

We have children here, one guy yells. Oh, yeah, that's going to slow down white supremacy on fucking drugs. Hey, there's kids over here. Watch your language. I don't care, he says. Call Donald Trump. Hello?

Oh, Billy, get out of there. I just saw on the news. Your pubes are showing you're drunk. You slap a girl. You'd never slap a girl. Do you know Donald Trump, he says? If you don't know Donald Trump, I'm not going anywhere. A bunch of people should have raised their hand and said, I know him.

He comes in here all the time. Before he slapped that girl. Several men rushed to her aid, and one put Shawk on a headlock to restrain him as he yelled about the Aryan Brotherhood and white supremacy, which looks kind of funny when you're being wrestled down by a waiter. The worker said Shawk cursed, screamed, and undressed down to no shirt and his pants undone, exposing his pubic hair. Yummy, yummy.

You never want that around food, am I right, Raz? In a statement, Pop Sunset Grill said a troubled 36-year-old male entered our premises and immediately began spewing erratic hate dialogue. We made every effort to remove him within minutes after his arrival while simultaneously speaking with the 911 dispatch police officers. Unfortunately, he violently attacked our staff. He was immediately subdued and held until the sheriff arrived. The eatery said the assaulted staff member is recovering at home on paid medical leave. From a slap? Come on, bitch.

on paid medical leave. From a slap? Come on, bitch. She's got a permanent fucking handprint on the right side of her face. How do you not see that coming? He could have sent it Western Union quicker. He's like, at least my old man would go from here. Ping!

Shock, who was charged with battery and disturbing the peace, was held at the Sarasota County Jail on $55,000 bail. He apparently told deputies he has psychological issues. You don't say. You're a real crumbum. I'm glad you're told that you have psychological issues. Staying on the white supremacist, white power, it's all a reaction to what's going on. This one sums it up and just how stupid people are and how we have botched the issue of race

in this country to the point where people can't even see straight anymore. My goodness. People can't even see straight anymore. My goodness. Supposedly the people, the good people in this story, are dumber than the fucking actual white supremacists. A Michigan bed and breakfast is changing its decor in response to confusion over the Norwegian flag. Res, flag, don't wait for me. Greg and Kirsten Offbeckercker owners of the nordic pineapple say the red and blue banner was frequently mistaken for a confederate flag why is everyone

so fucking stupid why aren't more people intelligent like me yeah it looks just like the just like the Confederate flag, except for, you know, it's a cross and not an X and there's no stars on it. You fucking idiots. You ignorant fucks. You're dumber than the bigots you're trying to fucking shit on. Can you imagine?

Last week, the couple decided to remove the flag as they were updating their marketing materials. Offbecker said she was trying to represent her heritage, but it's not worth the frustration, she said. They have received cruel emails and phone calls over the confusion of the flag. Can I be happier? Yeah. Yeah. Who couldn't? What we're getting is so much more negative now she said it's not just hey you're flying the confederate flag it's you should be ashamed to fly the confederate flag you're a bigot because you fly the confederate flag fucking believable why is everyone so fucking stupid why aren't more people interrogating like me can that's how fucked up we are about race and more people interrogate like me.

That's how fucked up we are about race and they're literally blind to it. I'm going to put that flag on my pickup truck. See what kind of reaction I get. And I guarantee you none of those calls were from black people. I swear to God. Because they know what the Confederate flag looks like.

These fucking idiots watching Rachel Maddow. She's been out of the news lately, huh? Where's she getting a prick change? What? Here's some more symbolism based in hate slash racism. Me and Raz

were talking about this before the show. Again, my producer Raz is black. I mean blacker than that printer over there. Actually, he's not. I think when I get color, I'm a little darker than Raz. But we were talking about this one and we agreed on it. I don't understand what the controversy

is here. KFC markets fried chicken leg doing the book. I can't even say it. The black power. That's fucking delicious. Delicious. Thank you. Happy Emancipation Day.

They weren't trying to be sarcastic or racist look at that that's pretty clever huh the shadow i mean although this pales in comparison to those clogs we show those shoes last week, the fried chicken KFC. I don't understand it. What did you say, Raz? What did you say before the show? Oh, if any company can do that. Yeah, KFC

shit. Yeah, without getting... You know what I mean? God, you people have to relax. blacks who knows where they're gonna take the wrong way again i don't know how many black people get upset at it could be a bunch of fucking white libs probably a combination i don't get it we all love fried chicken you know i mean that's when that's how you know you're not at the point yet as far as race goes. When you can do that and we all have a laugh, who doesn't like KFC? I'm thinking about how many black people KFC employs, you know?

That's why I don't go in there. I don't want to be dealing with black employees. Exactly why I won't eat the food. I don't need somebody spitting in my mashed potatoes who's seen my show no exactly and how many people black and white love it I don't but like I said fried chicken thing

now that's off limits we can't make any references to fried chicken can't say the word banana what's fucking left rope you can't say rope. No. I mean, Jesus Christ, that's a clever marketing thing. They're saying by the black power sign, we're with you for the love of God. Happy Emancipation Day. Only way I'm going to be happy about that is I'm making a federal holiday. We get the fucking day up.

Only way I'm going to be happy about that is I'm making a federal holiday. We get the fucking day up. What day, Raz, is Happy Emancipation Day? Any idea? I think it's for Haiti or something like that, right? For Haiti? What do you mean? This was not an American post.

It wasn't? Mm-mm. We have a Happy Emancipation Day here. It's the opening of the NBA. What? Who the fuck? Why would you? You're a real crumbum. Whack, whack, whack.

I think there is a plan. We got Juneteenth. I still don't know what that means. Is that a single day or a month when you put the Juneteenth? Juneteenth? I still don't know what that means. Is that a single day or a month when you put the Juneteenth? Juneteenth? Who comes up with this shit? It's my day.

What about me? I think it's very clever. I don't understand. Colonel Sanders, if you don't find him racist, just, you know, just the logo. That guy is a plantation owner. Hi, everybody. Try my nuggets. After you're done plowing them fields.

Sorry, it was Trinidad. Trinidad. Oh, that's right. Emancipation Day Trinidad falls on August 3rd. What was I thinking? Let's stay on race, shall we? Because that's all this country knows. A Black Lives Matter protester carrying a flamethrower and not working at Burger King. That's some funny stuff. Look, here's Raz going to a cookout.

Where them ribs at? BLM guy, protester, got a flamethrower. Where the fuck do you get that anyways? Led a march on the Arkansas compound of the Ku Klux Klan's Grand Wizard where demonstrators were met by heavily armed militia. The protests, organized by Ozark's hate watch, gathered in Harrison on Sunday before finally arriving in Zinc near the compound housing KK leader Thomas Robb, calling it the motherland of racism in America.

Really? And I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, and segregation forever. Can't have segregation now or tomorrow. It's fucking Emancipation Day, stupid. Hold that shit for late February. Photo show march organizes Quinn Foster carrying a flamethrower which he insists was warranted given the threat he felt claiming there had been 140 death threats in the run-up to the march on zinc well yeah yeah you're going into fucking clan country are you really shocked at that

jesus h christ heloise we have around? Was there a clip of this? No peace! Oh, another hot white chick on the left. Look at her. No peace! Pale, short-haired pig. No peace! Hey, that's Norwegian flag. Look, you got a transgender girl. That's a girl, the pasty white thing. Again, that's why she's angry and joins these type of groups. And then you got the kid from Deliverance who's now 44 years old, replaced his banjo with a Bible. They're having having a nice chat but no violence breaks out go ahead

oh no Gallagher's here. Fucking Gallagher showed up. That's some racism right there. Again, watermelon. We all love it. Should have thrown a chicken leg out there. All hell would have broke loose. Watermelon. The protest group posted photos of several so-called militia men who met them,

including one woman who pointed her rifle at the group while her finger was on the trigger. I love you for helping me to construct my life. My type of bitch. Got a militia rally pointing a gun at fuck guy with a flamethrower. What tension? Remember what I said about Antifa? That they were going to wander

into the wrong, you know what I mean, when you start to get to rural Florida, Alabama, Georgia. You know what I mean? That's when the people who are really fed up with this shit are going to come out. But let's think about the progress we made.

That was BLM in Klansman country, and there was no violence. Unless you call a watermelon being smashed violence, but that's just good fun, according to Gallagher and his brother. Anyways, the black kid with the flamethrower said at the end, today was a historic day for Black Lives Matter, he said. It was stupid. It was stupid. So fucking stupid. Make me a sandwich. Make me a fucking sandwich. And make me a sandwich segment tonight. me a fucking sandwich and i make me a sandwich segment tonight oh this real this one got my nipples all fucking uh up in a you know what uh why are you going out of state i i can see it at

What? Oh, I guess I was talking about the picture. My fault. Grisham is spying on New Mexico residents and believes that the inevitable behavior of a virus can be stopped by her dictatorial powers. What a fucking another left winger. Just so filled with, you know, you fucking who? Yeah, that's it. Go home.

Get my dinner ready. Yeah, go ahead. Governor, go home. Here she is. Listen to her. She admits she's spying on people from there at the fucking airport. Are you? What is going on? Go ahead. Kids are traveling out of state and they are not adhering to a 14 day quarantine and you're not supposed to be going out. Why are you going out of state? Pause. Because, mom, I have pussy

She doesn't even see what's wrong with that. You know, I mean, she doesn't even see what's wrong. And who's the broad in the back in the picture giving her the finger?

Fran Drescher. Go ahead. Let Karen say some more. We're taking that virus to other places, you're bringing that virus back. You're being unfair to New Mexico's economy. Worse. You're putting New Mexicans in the hospital and some of them

are losing their lives. You're going to lose your life when somebody hits you. Did you say Mexicans, you little white racist? They're losing their lives. How many people have died in New Mexico, lady? I'm watching you.

She's like Scarface. She's got 100 monitors in her office. We got those belt tour assault choppers in here. That's 5% of our adjusted gross. That ain't peanuts. Oh, my God. Another woman. Honest to God, why are we giving the right to vote?

Another woman drunk on, ladies, I'm kidding. I know there's a lot on my side, too. Another woman drunk with power. Another lib. What more do you need to know about these people? How can you vote Democrat? Go ahead, Raz. New Mexico has 655 deaths.

655 deaths in New Mexico. Let's see if we can get it up to 855. Nobody cares about New Mexico. Might be the shittiest state in the union. Who's been to New Mexico? Raise your fucking hand. What's it known for other than

Breaking Bad? Wasn't that New Mexico? Just, it looks like a horrible place what's it known for other than breaking bad? Wasn't that New Mexico? Just, it looks like a horrible place to me. I could be wrong, could be terrific. There's all those Indian relics and cactuses and shit. Apparently meth. Here's another COVID story. Again, we're living, I'm sorry. I just, I've come to the conclusion. I've listened to enough people. I've read enough. I've come to, and again,

who was on Fauci first? Do you remember me about a month into this? Maybe I said it to my wife. I go, I don't trust this guy. New Yorker, doctor. He probably went to an Ivy league school. Everything they do is political in New York. A Las Vegas gambler was removed from the famous Four Queens Casino, which I've never heard of, in handcuffs after he went in without wearing a mask. Oh, my God. The man was bundled out of the building and handed over to cops for flouting public safety rules on Saturday night. That's faggot stuff.

You want a court by its name, that's strictly for fags. I'll read the contributors. I was supposed to do that earlier. The photographer reported the man was yelling for help when he was taken outside by five security guards. The bouncers were wearing face masks. However, bystanders had their coverings pulled down around their chin.

And did anybody die from that? It is currently mandatory for all residents and tourists to wear face coverings in public and inside private businesses across Nevada. Stop getting cunty. Give me a break. Look at the bouncer there. Have another fucking bowl of ice cream, Billy. And look how the guy who's arrested, look how he dresses to go to the casino.

Is he going to the slots or is he going to bed? Look at this chooch. I'll put on my bottom PJs and a t-shirt. Maybe I'll get some snatch at the fucking Queens casino. What a country of low lives. State health officials on Sunday reported 1,131 new corona cases, pushing the total to 50,000 since the pandemic began in Nevada. There were no additional deaths reported, pushing the total to 50,000 since the pandemic began in Nevada. There were no additional deaths reported, keeping the total at 832. Yeah, we all know it's very contagious. It spreads easily, but hardly does any harm to anybody. According to the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services, the average number of new confirmed cases daily over the past two weeks

has remained fairly constant. You know why? Because they're pulling guys out of there that aren't wearing their face masks. Finally tonight, let's end on a nice light story. Well, it's kind of dark depending on how you look at it. Look. No, no, no, no! What are you doing, Raz? I was going to do the morgue story. Wait a minute. I'll jump right to it.

All right, we'll jump to the fucking... In our FLA second one tonight, right? From fucking Lunatic Asylum. Florida, man, this is just... Think about how... what a mean, cruel fucking place this country is right now. A Florida man fatally shot an Orlando Burger King worker. Where else? Florida. Saturday night after his friend's drive-thru order took too long to complete. Calvis Rodriguez-Tormez, 37, is accused of gunning down Desmond Joshua, 22 years old, in the parking lot of the fast food restaurant on East Colonial Drive at 7.30 p.m.

You know, look at him on the right. You can't judge a book by its cover. Yeah, you can. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. The, oh God. Rodriguez-Tomas had early a storm to the Burger King

at the behest of a woman who made a scene over a long wait time at the drive-thru. The unidentified woman was refunded $40 and told to leave after she got out of the car and screamed she was going to get her man to come to the eatery that's the victim on the left guy's just trying to make a living 22 years old she drove away but soon returned with rodriguez tormez who targeted josh, demanding the employee fight him. Rodriguez-Tormez placed Joshua in a headlock before a witness separated the two. But moments later, Rodriguez-Tormez returned from his truck with a gun and shot Joshua like the fucking coward that he is.

The employee was taken to an area hospital pronounced dead. Rodriguez-Tormez was charged with murder, destruction of evidence and a weapons possession bye bye dickhead nice going how fucking hateful can you be and how about the broad that went home to get him i'm sure she's a piece of work dating this fucking guy. Unbelievable. Kid goes to work, 22 years old, doing the right thing. But the order was, didn't happen quick enough.

So let's take somebody's life. I can't even, the ignorance is, even in today's world, this is shocking. Thought we'd end on a light note huh oh yes he's a great guy you know him from the sopranos and blue bloods very talented guy and a very nice guy steve sherrippa please welcome to the show an old friend of mine well marginal

friend i'd say but you guys know him as bobbyacalao from The Sopranos. He's on Blue Bloods. He's been in movies. You see him a lot, Law & Order. And one of the nicest guys I ever met in the business, Steve Schripper. Steve, how you doing? What's happening, Pat? Marginal friend. What does that mean, marginal? Well, we're not, like, close.

I wanted to just say friend, but I thought you'd go, what is he talking about? I've met this guy five times. No, hey, you know what a lot of people don't know? You helped me with my books. You wrote a lot of that great material with my New York Times bestseller, The Goomba's Guide to Life.

You wrote, you might be a Goomba. One of the best ones was, you might be a Goomba if you have more pinky rings than pinkies. Not something you never hear a Goomba say, Nathan Lane. I adore Nathan Lane. You don't remember that?

I do know. I forgot about that. My God, I can add that to my resume. Was that a bestseller, really? New York Times bestseller, The Goomba's Guide to Life. Then the second one was The Goomba's Book of Love and you wrote a lot of those things so they were hilarious yes I remember the love stuff

because that is my business yeah it was good it was good and then we we toured together with Comedy You Can't Refuse yes and Vegas absolutely that was so so great Michael Imperioli was there. You were there.

Johnny Sack, Vince Curatullo has been on this show many times. Me and Vince sat there like we knew each other. I went up to him and I said, you are a monster, meaning a compliment as an actor. And he kind of fucking looked at me like he didn't know who I was. He gave me kind of a, he thought I was like insult him. And then we sat down, me and him started smoking cigarettes and just making fun of all the assholes. And I felt like I'd known him my whole life. And Imperioli was great. And who sang Sinatra?

Who was singing Sinatra? Artie Bucco. Artie Bucco. The chef. The chef could sing like Sinatra. And you and Imperioli hosted it. We hosted it. It was 1,500 people at the Hilton where Elvis played.

You killed. You had a set, and I'm not lying, that was as good. And I think I told you that. No one could have as good a set as that. Yeah, that's when I was doing it every night, and I was sharp and stuff. And, you know, right after that, Steve, Michael Imperioli called me, and a week or two later i i get i go i see my uh phone there's a message i check it nick michael imperio and i'm freaking out i'm like oh what does he want and he had some he was

he wrote some play about a vaudeville comedian it was two comedians like a duo and he sends me the material i couldn't do it anyways because because literally I didn't have much money and I had road stuff coming up. And, you know, there was no money involved. And I needed the goddamn money. But it's Imperioli calling me. And he sends the shit over. It must have been Steve.

I don't know if he thought I was acting my whole. It must have been, I'm not exaggerating, 25 pages of dialogue where I talk and then he does 25. I go, what the fuck? Well, he had the theater at the time. You know, he had a theater on 28th Street. Yes. A little theater, and he put up his own original plays.

But, hey, if you could have done it, that would have been great for you. I know. I was flat. This is how much I was flattered. I left his voicemail for like a year and a half. It was on my phone. I didn't want to delete it because I was such a fan of uh yeah yeah no but when we did it then we did uh westbury music fair that's right right at the westbury whatever it was called we did in the round that was a great show we did a

few things we did one in the city and we did some stuff then you were on the sopranos yes and i wanted to say and steve, I remember saying, Steve, I thank you and you go, that was all you. I don't believe, I still don't believe it. Listen to me. Listen, I know that's, this is no bullshit. I remember you calling me. I said, if you get a call back, you know, then you go and do them. They're not doing me no favors. I'm nobody. And listen,

Gabe Dufini had his one of his closest friends, one line, he auditioned for one line. He didn't get it. He didn't get it. Is that right? I swear. The truth. David Chase, if you're the guy, I don't care how much experience, a lot, a little.

If you're the guy, you're the guy. If you're not, you're not. When you went in that room and you read, I assume for David, he was there i all the i hate auditioning i'm a terrible auditioner everybody who likes that i don't know some people who have no fucking life i guess but i walk in there i was first of all i was i i woke up relaxed i was living in queens it was a two minute uh uh you know train ride to silver cup i felt very relaxed and i went in there and and then i saw i didn't think chase would be there every time i go in it's the uh people who get coffee for the fucking and there's chase right there and i did here's what here's what i think

made i was you guys have seen the columbus episode i'm breaking up a fight in the park and i went like this hey something about uh there's gonna be a rest and i went i did a little fucking whistle thing like a cop boy and uh sometimes you know that's what you have to do hey listen and i'm telling you when you went in there you had audition i think first then you got the call back and then i called and i said listen and that way if it's half for you know so a lot of times it's like this that guy that guy whichever one you want right half, you know, so a lot of times it's like this, that guy, that guy, whichever one you want. Right. And, you know, right. So you got the job. Believe me. I'm telling you, there was no favors done. David, you know, on the podcast this week that we have, we talked to Terry Winter.

What's the name of the podcast, Dave? Talking Sopranos. It's Talking Sopranos. It's a rewatch. We've been going back from episode one. We're now up to episode 11. It's me and Michael Imperioli rewatching the show for the first time in 20 years. We go over it. We have guests. We both share it like this. Every

single person had to audition for the show. There's no one that didn't audition. There was big stars wanting to come in. You know, Bruce Willis and this guy and that guy that wanted to part on the show. Nathan Lane. If you weren't right, you weren't right. Right. And I remember you

at the read-through. Remember the read-through? We sat next to each other, you know, your big square table. The whole cast is there. It's pretty cool. And there was a roast pig. There was a roast pig on the table. Oh, was there? Yes, with a goddamn apple in its mouth.

I go, how big a show is this thing for roast pig? And we're doing the table read. Do you remember this? It came to me. I was staring at, what's her name that played Adriana? Oh, Trey. Yes. And somebody went, Nick.

Here I am in a Sopranos reading and I'm staring at a girl across the way. Well, you know, it is pretty intimidating. You see these guys. I remember my first one. And my first one was the first one I had ever done. Even though I acted, I never went to a read-through. I remember asking

Joe Rogan. I think I asked Bill Kirkenbauer, how's it work? Do you do it 100%? I went in there, not knowing a soul. You see these guys on TV. Now you're going around the table. They're going, I'm Jim Gander Feeney, Tony Soprano, I'm David Chase.

That's a little intimidating. There's 40 people watching. You frigging nailed it. Let me, what was I just going to ask you? God damn it. That was your first. Didn't David Chase see you at a wedding or something?

No, no, no. I thought I read that. Oh, no, no. What happened was this. I had been acting here and there. Okay. I did a King of Queens. I did a Chicago Hope.

Little bullshit stuff. I worked with this white De Niro in casino. I had a acting here and there, okay? I did a King of Queens. I did a Chicago Hope. Little bullshit stuff. I worked with Ace White, De Niro, and Casino. I had a couple lines. I got my SAG card. But I had been dabbling, and I was the entertainment director at the Riv, as you know. You worked for me a few times. And so I was doing the Riviera, booking acts.

I booked a club. I also had an agency. I used to book clubs, blah, blah, blah. And I came. You Fink. You know you Fink. I booked a club. I also had an agency. I used to book clubs. And I came, you think, you know, you think. Yes. Very funny. Used to write SNL. He was getting married. He was at my wedding 10 years before. I came to New York for the wedding. I flew into Vegas. There was a guy helping me, an agent. I said, listen, see if you could get me to read for that show. Maybe I get a couple couple lines. That's all I was looking for. Like, you know, maybe I get a couple lines. I wasn't pursuing it as a career. It was a hobby. Right. You know, it was fun. I had two kids, big house in Vegas. I had a big job.

I did whatever I wanted at the hotel. You saw, right? Yeah. All those broad you had. You know, and I auditioned for the role of an FBI agent. And then I got a call back and that was it. And I didn't get that. They said, hey, read this baccalaureate. No, he didn't see me. I read for him like everybody else.

Can you imagine? And while you must have nailed it, auditioning is a horrible experience, folks. It's just horrible. I would, and I've been doing it for 15 years and I would still be nervous every time I went in. But you, I remember the first scene when you come in kind of with your head down, kind of to the victor goes the spoils.

And Tony goes, I stick that quote book up your ass. Up your fat fucking ass. There was all these fat jokes, right? So when I read the script, he calls me in the first episode calls me a blimp a cow's own with legs he calls me uh uh you should start considering eating salads you know all this shit and i read it and i go did they cast the wrong guy because i'm not that much fatter than that's right jim i'm about the same size, a little bigger maybe. I'm taller. And then they said, you got to wear a fat suit.

So now that makes sense. I wore this enormous fat suit for two seasons. Then I guess they got fat enough on my own. I didn't need it anymore. Yeah, I remember you getting out of that car. You're trying to get out of the car. But I also did that on purpose. I know. That's acting, man. And it made me this fat thing.

You know, and I paraded up and down. They had a fat ass, too. They took that away. But I remember with the costume girl, Juliet, and I was parading up and down, and David was watching me. And, you know, he's a poker face guy. He don't give you nothing. Of course not.

Yeah. You don't know good or bad you know and uh uh that was funny my favorite part of that scene is at the end when fucking tony drives away and he says out the window you might want to think about fucking salads and then and then he drives away and you stand there and you go yeah something about you insensitive cocksucker yeah and i spit on the floor when i did that cerrico saw me he said you're dead you're dead you're dead you don't spit at the boss you're dead you're fucking dead unbelievable and you were so i remember talking to steve shirip blue bloods uh the sopranos uh

law and order every you see him all over the place uh best-selling author um yeah i remember you telling me you said hey i got a big scene you told me this you said don't tell anybody i was flattered that you trusted me you said i got a big scene i'm gonna have a fight a fist fight with tony yeah and i'm not going i think you told me months before at the end you know that was the last batch of episodes yes so when we did that right we were in tarrytown that's what we were saying did that, right, we were in Tarrytown. That's where we were staying. I lived there. I used to live in Tarrytown.

The hotel, I don't know if it's Samaria, big hotel. We were there the whole, for two weeks we were there and we it was supposed to be near Canada the border, but we really were just, I don't know, 45 minutes from there. Right. It came time to, you know, we're at the lake house.

Me, Carmella, Janice, the four of us only. Yeah. And we go to do the fight scene, and Jim says, I can't. I got to operate on my knees. We can't do it. I mean, we're literally ready to do it. Six months later, they built that cabin on the stage at Silver Cup. Oh, no kidding.

$250,000. Okay? months later they built that cabin on the stage at silver cup oh no kidding 250 000 okay we do the fight it takes a day and a half two fat sweaty guys out of shape i'm pulling hair he's choking me you know he said let's make this as real as we can i actually headbutted him he went down i said oh man he's gonna get up and beat the shit out of me, you know, because he was a strong, big guy, big hands, you know. And, yeah, we shot that. So we shot the lake house in July, and then we wind up shooting that scene in January, the following January. And you shot the fight scene at Silver Cup?

Silver Cup. You did. I was at Silver Cup cup they rebuilt the whole cabin it was unbelievable because when i walked in there i went it was kind of eerie i went this is exactly the same they built it to the team that scene still makes me nervous i watched it after it went off the air i'm not kidding you i'd get on the treadmill every day i must have watched all six seasons or whatever at least five times. I'll take anybody on.

And if you have a trivia thing on your show, I'll take anybody on. But that fight, that still made me uncomfortable. When you and him are playing, they're getting drunk, you're playing whatever, and you stop mouthing off a little bit. It still makes me nervous. You guys were such great actors. It's very uncomfortable. He was so good, and he was a good guy.

You met him. I didn't meet him. You didn't meet him at the read-through? Nope. He wasn't at the read-through. That's why I was staring at Adriana. But, you know, he was such a good guy and a lot of fun, and, you know,

to work with him, it was like, you know, I mean, he was choking you, you know, he didn't care. You know, I know he did a scene with Artie Bucco. He was slapping him in the face, like slapping him for real. I think I even know which one that was when Artie was in love with Adriana. You know, this is the first time us on the, me and Michael, first time we watched it in 20 years. I haven't seen it.

Oh, my God. You know, it's very bittersweet, you know, seeing Jim and a lot of people have passed away. You know, I mean, there's a lot of actors from the show. It's 20 years. Johnny Sacks' wife.

A lot of people passed away. Yeah, Ginny and... Frank Vincent passed away. Cha-Cha passed away. Oh, my God. Carmela's father, Tom Ulrich, passed away. Cha-Cha passed away. Oh, my God. Carmela's father, Tom Ulrich, passed away. What a great actor he was. Remember Tony's attorney, Neil Mink?

He passed away. Oh, really? And the guy, when they did the gay episode up in New Hampshire, the Johnny Cakes, remember Johnny Cakes? Yeah. He died. The guy that played the gay guy. Oh, yeah.

Hang on. Sure. You there? You got me? Yeah, yeah beautifully it's working out beautiful yeah i'm uh technically challenged yeah welcome the guy john costello he was a fireman a good guy he passed away i mean a lot of people yeah you know what's funny carmella's mother suzanne shepherd who was was Lorraine Bracco's mother in Goodfellas.

the riviera in 2000 but you did that show you came out i did a couple times you i loved it a bunch of yes you can do whatever you want right it was a midnight show you say do whatever it was um i actually questioned myself after i i had such a good time cutting loose like that and i said why am i doing this all the time what am i holding back i actually remember thinking myself have i been holding back for the last few years because i i murdered and it was just right from the gut you know just to an adult it was that was a great just right from the gut, you know, just so I kind of dealt with it. That was a great gig, man. But, you know, a lot of times the clubs, you know,

you got to watch what you say, what you do, you know. Yeah. And listen, all the years that I screwed around with the clubs, I never, ever told a comic, like, what to do. You know, hey, don't do that joke. I would just say, listen, the hotel's going to get mad if you get too dirty. Right. But that's why we put that show in.

So I brought in all these filthy comics. The filthiest. I mean, I did. I mean, I had, you know, Felicia Michaels and this Adrian Abbott was dirty and all these acts, Sheila Kay, Tree, do you remember that guy? It was all these filthy, Joe Rogan, all these filthy comics, you know. And it was great. But the regular act, you know, people would complain, you know,

it's filthy, it's dirty. You go to a comedy club, I got to think you expect it. Of course. You know, that's what I It's dirty. You go to a comedy club. I got to think you expect it. Of course. That's what I think. Yeah. Well, you think it was bad then. You have no idea what's going on now. That's why I'm glad I have my own fans. I've been doing this 30 years, so I've cultivated a following.

So when they come out, there's no surprises. They're coming out. They know what they're getting. But it took me a long time to get those asses in the seats and now it's finally happening and then fucking covid hits yeah well you'll get back you'll snap back yeah it'll snap back people are dying to go out people are you know they want to get back out there i mean people are being holed up man they i did i think it's going to take a while for the whole thing but once it, people will be out in force. But, you know, I remember, I forget who the comic was.

At the RIV, he was talking, he was telling jokes about John F. Kennedy. You know, just joke, whatever he's saying. It wound up one of his daughters was in the, Robert Kennedy's daughter was in the audience, and she complained to the head of the hotel. Oh, but I mean, what are you talking about? Then get up and get up and walk out.

Right. You know, making fun of my uncle. How about real, real quick. I don't want to take up too much of your time, but you told me a story when you were the entertainment director of the Riviera about Barbra Streisand.

Do you remember this? About the rugs? About the what? The rugs. You told me she was such a diva. I remember you telling me this. I never forgot it. It's the first time I met you.

This has to be 25 years ago. You said she was such a diva. She had them tear up the rugs. She wanted the rugs in the hallway to her on her floor to match the ones in a row. Yeah. Yeah. And you couldn't look her in the eye.

What a horrible person. So if there was like housekeeping or other work, they had to turn towards the wall. Yeah. You can believe that. Yes, I can believe this insanity, but you know who

played the riv a lot was sinatra and i got to do you know i would be upstairs working yeah this is the late 80s yeah i would be upstairs working and then i would go down to the main room and i must have seen him 30 times no kidding incredible Just incredible. And he had a suite upstairs to his specifications, and then he would have Jilly come in two days before. He had certain ice cubes, round ice cubes, this, that. Jack Daniels. Certain gum, certain candy, but none of that nonsense. You don't turn away.

You meet both. Right. And then you say some people you go, what the fuck is this guy? You know, like what actors do. And then and then no one wants them anymore. Right. And then they say, well, why not? Because you broke everybody's fucking balls.

Right. For 20 years while you could. On your way up. You know what I mean? And you see it over and over and over. And I had a few of those. And you don't use them anymore. Right.

You don't remember Freddie Boom Boom Cannon? Remember him? Palisades Park? No. It's a big hit. A big hit in the 60s. Palisades Park. He was the biggest fucking jack-off.

I mean, he's in the Jack-off Hall of Fame. I almost beat his ass in. He was yelling at the maids. Really? He was bothering. He came into the hotel. He bothered every soul. So who do they call? They call me. Hey, control your guy. He was bothering. He came into the hotel. He bothered every soul. So who do they call?
