Starting point is 00:03:12 Yes. Well, now is Amanda Seyfried playing herself? No, she's acting as somebody else. Oh, that's boring. It would be amazing if it was two guys going on a time vacation and they find out they're gonna get Amanda Seyfried's baby. It would be amazing if it was two guys going on a time vacation and they find out they're going to get Amanda Seyfried's baby.
Starting point is 00:03:27 She's just randomly giving him. Is it too late for that rewrite? No, we can fix it in post. We can still fix it in post. It's mostly ADR. It's fine. It's ADR. Just that she'd take nine months out of her career
Starting point is 00:03:35 to have a baby that she's then just going to give away. Yeah. She's close to the filmmakers. They decided to do it. But it is based on Brian Crano and David Craig, who directed it, our couple. It's loosely based on a couple of things that happened in their life.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Not murder. Yes. Or wait and watch. You don't know that. They're not going to tell you. They're not going to tell you. And yeah, so we ran around. We shot in Italy for a while.
Starting point is 00:04:03 And right? How long were you there? It felt Italy for a while. And, right? How long were you there? We were there. It felt like a long time. Well, it was a month of night shoots. It was a month of night shoots. Outside Rome. Is it fun?
Starting point is 00:04:12 Is it relatable when actors complain about how hard it is to make a film? You know what? I get it. Right? And I mean, and you're talking to me. And like, yeah, sure. It's, you know, you guys are,
Starting point is 00:04:24 you're beautiful people. You've never had any trouble in your lives. So yeah, it's like, when you talk, it's gonna be hard for anyone. You know? Yeah. Yeah, we, but it was a, it was like a, it's one of those, it's a movie that happens
Starting point is 00:04:39 almost largely at night. And it's like, and it was, we shot outside of Rome. And so we, it was an intense, very bonding experience, which is why I think Andrew and I are here to say that we are, haven't told our spouses, but we are getting married. Oh, that's nice. And we are gonna adopt Amanda Seyfried's baby.
Starting point is 00:04:58 That's nice. Yeah. But you're straight, right? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, you know what? After a while, it doesn't matter. I mean, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, you know what? After a while, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:05:06 I mean, love is love for me. No, it doesn't matter. Love is love, and, you know. It's like with Conan and me, after a while, the sex just ends. Did it? Oh, really? It just ends.
Starting point is 00:05:15 It all turns into friendship. Yeah, it's all friendship, you know? It's all friendship and money. Sure. Yeah, yeah. Money, friendship. And so just, because I'm just trying to figure out the poll code for the post.
Starting point is 00:05:27 So, for page six, cause I gotta talk to Cindy Adams after this. So, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cindy Adams. The sex stopped. Yeah. Richter talks about when the sex stopped with Conan. To Cindy Adams.
Starting point is 00:05:41 That'll be a good one. Right? She can't be alive. Cindy Adams can't be alive, is she? I feel like she is. I think I've seen her, yeah. There's like a sex dungeon in Soho. Wait, I was gonna say,
Starting point is 00:05:53 we're in the basement of the Carlisle. We're looking up. We're looking up. No, she's dead. No, she's alive. She's alive. I've seen her recently. Oh my God, she's, she's.
Starting point is 00:06:04 So quick shout out to Cindy Adams. She's alive. I've seen her recently. Oh my God, she's. So quick shout out to Cindy Adams. She's 95. Yeah. 95, wow. Everyone out there, quick shout out to Cindy Adams. 95 going strong, still writing gossip in New York. Still talking shit. Still talking shit.
Starting point is 00:06:16 She used to do across the street from, or across the street, across the hall from the Conan show, was live at five, the local news, and she would do a thing on there. And on camera, it looked totally normal, but when you'd see her in the hallway, you would see like a jawline, like painted on that was like kind of an ombre.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Sure, sure. From like a dark, almost black down into, yeah, like a Jim Henson's workshop. Yeah, really, really, you know, artfully done, but on camera, it looked great. And by the way, sounds good to me. Like I'm not, I mean, that's why I put this beard on. Oh, I'm gonna, if I could grow a beard.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Buddy, I'm doing my best to give the shape of a face. Thank you, you know what I mean? That's why we're all, that's why we're growing beards. Once this fucking pile of soft serve between my shoulders needs something, to define something on it. They just won't grow? No, yeah, no. I, it's all a rabbinical student, you know. It's all, it's all a B&H photo. Oh, it's never. A dream. I can't, I just, it's like I can grow kind of a mustache
Starting point is 00:07:32 and kind of a goatee, but it just looks. Quick shout out to B&H photo, by the way. Yeah, hey guys, what's up? If you wanna buy any electronics in New York City, but you wanna exclusively deal with ill-tempered Orthodox Jews, go check out B&H photo in New York. Right, if want to exclusively deal with ill-tempered Orthodox Jews, go check out B&H Photo in New York.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Right. If you're tired of being treated well. Yeah. If you've got an hour to wait, hit them up. Yeah. But for some reason, I wonder how they really had it though. There was years in New York where you're like, you gotta go to B&H. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:00 You do. And you gotta go to Moe's. Gotta go to Modell's Sporting Goods. Sure. Gotta go to Moe's. Gotta go to Modell's Sporting Goods. Sure. Gotta go to Moe's. Gotta go to Moe's. This is so regional. And nobody beats the Wiz.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Nobody beats the Wiz. At this point, here on Serious XM. Speaking of regional, you can cut this out if you need to. But you know what Tuck and his kids walk around our house now saying is, who are you? Oh really? Yeah, Nick has a bit about your favorite lawyer ad in Los Angeles, your favorite lawyer billboard. Oh yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Who are you? And the who are you is the great one. And now the kids say it. Really? Who are you? Because there's a couple on the way to school. They're like, look. My wife and I have this particular love for Sweet James. Of course.
Starting point is 00:08:45 But because when you find out about his sex dungeon, you know about that, right? No, I knew as far as that he had, it was no longer a bar, he's disbarred to personally practice law. Is he really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, that's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:08:59 Shout out to Sweet James. That is sweet. But wait, so he has a, tell me, cause his wife was a real housewife. That is sweet. But wait, so he has a, tell me, cause his wife was a real housewife. He was a real housewife, and it was talked about in the real housewife when they were just talking about their real estate,
Starting point is 00:09:12 and it was like, oh yeah, and then there is also the 1500 square foot sex dungeon in their mansion. That's cool. That's sweet James. Yeah. Is it though? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:23 Sometimes sweet James likes to get a little savory. Wow. A little salty down in the dungeon. Sweet, Sweet James. It can't be sweet all the time. No, that is the truth. Sweet on the streets. Sweet on the streets.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Yeah, yeah. I don't know that. That is my name on the streets. Sweet on the streets. Sweet on the streets. Salty and bad. See. Cause of the tears. Cause of the streets. Salty and bad. See? Because of the tears.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Because of the tears. Because he cries. Oh. Well, anyway, so today our topic, what we've been soliciting from callers, is sort of new parent stories. And you guys are both parents. Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Yeah. I mean, did you have a, I mean, what was the transition from being a fun person into somebody that had to care about a little helpless thing? Yeah, smooth sailing. Not a problem. Simple transition of how to approach life. Actually, we had, I have a couple kids under five.
Starting point is 00:10:19 And when we were making our movie in Italy, my son was barely two and my wife was pregnant. And we were doing those night shoots. And so my son, we'd get home at like 5 a.m. from where we were working outside of Rome, get to the apartment and at like seven, my son would wake up just furious. Like we had brought up a nanny with us
Starting point is 00:10:42 who he had turned on at that point. Right, right. And so I would literally, like, wash, like, so much, like, mud off my body. Literal mud. Yeah, creep into bed, lie down, just as, like, the sun was starting to creep up in Rome. And then it would just be like...
Starting point is 00:10:59 Nah! Like, just shouting for hours until I woke up. And then we actually would have really, like, beautiful mornings that go into this, the Via Borghese, the beautiful park in Rome. And we'd have these really special mornings. And I think that's what parenting is. It's like, it's all of it.
Starting point is 00:11:16 It's like, within three hours, you can be at your absolute wit's end and then also have, like, a magical moment. And also, unless you're gonna be a dick, like to say to a two-year-old, daddy needs to sleep, daddy's working, that's who gives a shit, like the kid is not gonna care about that.
Starting point is 00:11:33 No. You did say that a lot. I said it to him, but I would also, that's also, I would say that to Andrew when we get to work, I go, daddy needs some sleep, daddy's working. So you're gonna act with this Post-It on a spit. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:46 I'm not doing your coverage. Yeah, yeah. A Post-It with a little beard on it. I'll put a little mud on the Post-It just so it helps. But the Post-It always had, like, a little thought bubble, like a little speech bubble, and it said, who are you? Who are you?
Starting point is 00:12:00 Who are you? And, Andrew, you have two kids, right? Two, yes. So I... My story's a little different in that I started dating my boyfriend, Tuck Watkins, and he had six-year-olds. Oh, wow. They're now 12.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Wow. So that was, so I just sort of, you know, I mean, I knew they existed. It's not like he lied to me. Right, right, right. Oh yeah, by the way. That would have been a twist. Who the hell are these kids?
Starting point is 00:12:23 They run in the bed in the morning. What's happening? Is this New Daddy? Why do you have so many stuffed animals, Tucker? But no, so yeah, so I just sort of jumped in. But now, in the past year, we actually all live together. We actually live in a house. Oh wow. Yeah, a house together, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:41 So that's been, but surprisingly, pretty smooth transition. Yeah? Yeah. And are you Andrew or? Andrew. Yeah, yeah. I think behind my back it's like, that dick.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Oh. But to my face it's Andrew. It's him. Oh him. Him. No, it's Andrew. I don't have like a cute name or anything. He doesn't leave the room, they say it,
Starting point is 00:13:03 he turns his back and they say it about him, just to be clear. Well, they're twins, so they might have some, they have that like weird like, weird, you know, lingo. Yeah, some unspoken ESP. They just do it. Did you have qualms about like, at first?
Starting point is 00:13:20 Yeah, it was, yeah, cause I never really had that on my radar. So it was a big adjustment, it was a big adjustment. And I was also, when we first? Yeah, it was, yeah, because I never really had that on my radar. So it was a big adjustment. It was a big adjustment. And I was also, when we first started dating, I was back and forth to New York a lot. And then I was working, you know, I went to London for six months.
Starting point is 00:13:36 We were in Rome for like two months. It was like, it was a lot of that. So the getting into it was a little, it was a little, I don't wanna say rocky, but I was not consistent. I was not consistently here, which I think made it. Turns out kids like consistency. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:52 And it's like, I'm an improviser, sorry. Sorry, there's no script here. Why don't you yes and everyone now and then. Get on board. I mean, but that is true. Kids are very disagreeable. Yeah. But you know, I said this to Tuck's daughter,
Starting point is 00:14:10 you know, she is very sweet, but she's also a 12 year old girl. So there is sometimes some like attitude, and I was like, babe, I can do this all day. Yeah. I'm a gay man who's worked with some very difficult actresses. Come at me. Yeah. Come at me.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Come at me. All day I can do this. You want to serve Cunt? Yes. You'll see Cunt. I'll give it back. Yeah, yeah. So she's met her match.
Starting point is 00:14:34 That's great. Ha-ha. Yeah, yeah. And that is so funny. I have a 19-year-old daughter, and 13 was like when it just, it all, it was like, there was a real turn in just from kind of, you know, goofy kid, but complicated and everything,
Starting point is 00:14:53 but then just to be like, oh my God, I am an asshole apparently. I am a dick. I am the villain of every story. I don't know what I did. But I just will say here on SiriusXM, you are a villain. I am, oh, just will say here on SiriusXM, you are a villain. Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:15:07 The villain of SiriusXM. You are the greatest villain of SiriusXM. I, Smokey Robinson doesn't even come in here anymore. Because I'm stalking him. You were so... I was just frightening him a lot. That's the pilot of the good bully, is you... Well, no, I don't think Smokey Robinson has a bully.
Starting point is 00:15:27 I don't think you could ever bully Smokey Robinson if people get on board with it. Yeah, although if people haven't had a chance to watch Smokey Robinson do a cameo where he's wishing someone happy. Yeah, yeah. Is it Hanukkah? It's Hanukkah.
Starting point is 00:15:39 It's Chanukah. Chanukah, and by the way, it should be. Smokey's right. He's right. He's absolutely right. Chanukah. And by the way, it should be. Smokey's right. Yeah, he's right. He's absolutely right. Chanukah. And he was very kind. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:48 It's beautiful. Have you ever done a cameo? No. No, they keep trying to get me to do it. I did it once for a month for Broadway Cares. No, for the actors. Yes, for Broadway Cares and for the Entertainment Fund. And I found it to be highly stressful,
Starting point is 00:16:05 especially the ones where they send those scripts. You're just like looking at it. I don't know what I'm saying. This could be terrifying. I did it for a short period of time for money. Sure. It wasn't for any... Did you make some money?
Starting point is 00:16:17 I mean, yeah, but not enough that the humiliation... Sure. You know, like there was just a point where I was, it was like a very complicated sort of request about like somebody graduating, but also, you know, had learned to ski or, you know, like, and I was like, it's not, it was like enough. Well, I'm sorry, I wasn't proud of my accomplishments.
Starting point is 00:16:40 You know what? Black diamonds. Yeah, well, open the wall a little more. I was going down, well, I injured myself very severely on the skiing, and my medical bills were higher than I wanted, and I was trying to get something for myself to cheer myself up. And I was getting out of cosmetology school.
Starting point is 00:16:55 And I was just finishing. Yeah. I would get nervous when they would be like, from a guy to a girl, and it would say, you know, like, Ashley, Brad's a good guy. I'm like, I don't know who Brad is. I'm not saying that to this girl. It'd be a creep.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Let him serve you open drinks. Right, everybody has women's shoes in their freezer. Just be cool, Ash. Yeah, what the fuck? All right, we should go to the phones here. We've strayed from your parenting. Yeah, that's okay. What the fuck? All right, we should go to the phones here. We should go to the phones. We strayed from your parenting. Yeah, that's okay.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Honestly, I don't care about anything. Jane, Jane, no. If people are looking though, George Santos does have cameo and it was a very funny thing when he started his cameo. Yeah, yeah. He does? Oh, he does. He makes a lot of money too.
Starting point is 00:17:42 I bet. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they get me up again too. I'm just, I don't know. I can't, I don't wanna do it. No, no. I'll talk. It's, no, I don't. Please don't. We'll do it here live on the air. We'll give you guys cameos. Live cameos. This is sort of a live cameo. It is. Oh, Lori. Right now, Lori.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Lori from New York. Hello. Hi. Hi, how are you? I'm good. You've got Nick, Andrew and Andy here to help you with your parenting. I don't know if we'll be any help at all. We'll probably just exploit your pain and misery. I think you should explain it because if the story happened like 21 years ago. Oh good. So you probably can't help with that particular situation. Okay good, well let us have it. Okay, so when my first kid was born, and he was a newborn, my husband and I, I was 37
Starting point is 00:18:33 when I had my first kid. Congratulations. And we were idiots. Like we had no idea what we were doing and we were jittery, crazy, nervous wrecks. Yeah. So my mom came to stay with us first and then when she was leaving, we were going, we're getting panicked. So my big brother said, I'll come because he had three kids, really good dad. He was like, okay, I'm going to come. And so he came and stayed at our house. And so I woke up one morning and I think my husband had already gone to work
Starting point is 00:19:06 And I think my husband has already gone to work and I get up to go find the baby. No baby So then I go looking for my brother No, brother, and I'm you know, no sleep hormones crazy Emotion at peak I start circling running around my brother's name is mark and I'm going more More are you here? I'm walking all around the house in a complete panic, whipping from one room to the other. Maybe they took the stroller and I go with the stroller still there.
Starting point is 00:19:31 And then I'm envisioning like they fell down the basement steps and they're in the garage. Just start going nuts. Right? Like, and I'm almost sobbing at this point as I walk around the house looking for them. And then on my seventh circuit of every room in our house, we have a room that used to be our TV room back when we decided we should have a living room without a TV. And if you go in and then all the way around the corner there's a bathroom there and all of a sudden I look and I see the lights on. Now I've been walking through the
Starting point is 00:20:09 house going Mark, Mark, Mark for like 10 minutes and then I see the light on and it's like Mark are you in there? And he's like yeah and I was like do you have the baby? And suddenly I sound like Laura Petrie I don't know what happened there. And he said, yeah, it did take a shit. So he brought it in with me. Which is, you know, I mean, you're all men, but like men and their morning chips, it's like a serious thing. Well don't put us in a box there like that.
Starting point is 00:20:38 We've cemented all day long. I do wanna say, Laura, your house sounds massive. Sounds like a large property. Well, it also just sounds like that he was maybe hoping to finish up before you discovered him. Yes. But no baby should have to go through that. I like to think that my son was trying to reach me
Starting point is 00:21:02 telepathically, saying, get me out of this room. Get me out of here. How old is your son now? He is 21. How is he? Is he okay? Does he remember this? He can't, he hasn't shit in 21 years.
Starting point is 00:21:15 He has to have him surgically removed on a quarterly basis. I told him I was gonna tell a story about him as a baby uncle mark in the shitting it does sound like you told that story before you got the only work inside that's what's called a good review. Don't worry about it. Yeah, it is. I'll take that. High marks.
Starting point is 00:21:47 I'll take it. I mean, I haven't told the story in about 21 years. Well, I'll tell you this. It holds up. Yeah. It really does. Yeah, I was not ready for the shitting. When she said the bathroom, I was like, OK,
Starting point is 00:22:01 he's in there shitting. And Andrew, this happens, especially out in the world when your kid is little and they're in his, pulling a stroller into a bathroom stall with you, and it's like, yeah, what are you gonna do? Because you can't just leave him out. People get touchy about that. Oh, if you just leave him out.
Starting point is 00:22:20 Well, what you can do is cut a hole in the bottom of the stroller, then you sit in the stroller. Where's the kid? Whoa? The kid walks you around. The kid pushes you. The kid pushes you around as you crap into the stroller. Watch your feet, kid. You don't want to step in that. While your newborn is pushing you in the stroller.
Starting point is 00:22:38 Or you can, I mean this is a lot, this is going to be a lot of of work Laurie, but you can put one of those like kind of Parachutes on the back of the kid so the kids kind of floating above the stroller So like the winds coming out the kids know there's no wind you would have to be at such a speed You're going downhill or something like a go-kart. Yeah, motorized motorized go-kart, right? These are all solid ideas Go Kart. Right. Why are you just shitting your car? It's 21 years ago. Wow. These are all solid ideas. This is solid. Let's see, 21 years ago? 2004, I was in New York.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Just trolling for... Oh, well that's where we were. I was in New York. Where were you? Where were you in New York? Where? Right outside, like 30 minutes outside of Manhattan in a town called Pelham. Oh, I know Pelham.
Starting point is 00:23:28 I grew up in Westchester, I know Pelham. Owen Burke's from Pelham. Yeah, there you go. Oh, is he? Yeah. Oh, wow. Shout out to Owen Burke. Owen Burke's from Pelham.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Hey, Owen Burke. All right, well, Lori, thank you for the call, Lori. Thank you, Andy. A lot of my people grew up in Pelham. You and I have a history, Andy Richter. What happened? Oh, shit.

Starting point is 00:24:09 I was working for, in development at MTV and then a couple of years later I was producing something for VH1 in a bar on St. Patrick's Day. Oh. Then you came in and you were like, hey Lori, like you were very nice. Oh. And you were lovely to deal with. Was that what John Fugle sang? I'm trying to remember if he was hosting that.
Starting point is 00:24:32 I think that was, it doesn't matter. Fugle sang very, I'm losing Nick and Andrew here. No, we haven't talked about either one of them for about 30 seconds. I was thinking about Fugle saying, it's like a journey snack. It's a tough name, I'm gonna say. It is, it is.
Starting point is 00:24:47 It's a tough name. Yeah, yeah. I'm sure he would admit it. Yeah. He should have just gone to the Fugues. The Fugues stage. Yeah, the Fugues. All right, well, Lori, it's nice to reconnect.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Yes, thank you so much. That was really fun, and I'm fans of all of you. Oh, thank you so much. Have a good day. You too. All righty. Bye. Next, thank you so much. Have a good day. You too. All righty. Bye. Next, fellas, we're going to St. Louis.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Oh boy. St. Louis. Max, hello. That's Larry King for you young kids. Hello. Hi. What's up, Max? Hi, I was calling in, not quite a new parent story, but for a different, exciting new life thing, which is I'm getting married in two days.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Wow. Wait a minute, are you calling with a wild card call? This is gonna be a wild card call. Wild card, you can call in at any point. Anytime you want. At any topic, if the story's good enough, and sometimes they don't even have to be that good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:43 It's serious XM after all. And you can call in with a wild card and let us have it. All right, so Max, you're getting married. Yeah, getting married in two days. And just as soon as I heard that Nick and Andrew are on the show, obviously my first question was, it seems like a trio of people
Starting point is 00:26:05 who could give great marriage advice. Absolutely. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Oh, yeah, we're all like wizards. Yeah, just a trail of tears behind me. So, ask away. Yeah, ask away, Max.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Okay, I guess my main question and the thing that is giving me a lot of anxiety is, you know, we've been living together for four years now and we're getting married and I am, I feel a lot of pressure that things have to feel different now that it's going to be official and it's going to be, we're married. But then I just envision us getting back home and not feeling any different. I'm wondering what is, what feels different? What should I, what do I need to do to make sure it feels as special as it feels?
Starting point is 00:26:49 Yeah. Don't worry about it. Why, why would it feel different? Like in a, I think it is, but sorry, go ahead. I think just in a way of, you know, like when I talked to my parents about it, you know, a marriage and it always meant like, okay, well, this is now a new big change. Now it is either you're moving in together or now it means you're going to get set up so you can have kids or whatever.
Starting point is 00:27:17 And it just is, I think I am, it's not like I'm worried about it, but I just want to, dude, to know sort of what to expect different from a marriage. If there isn't. Well, my mother, prior to me getting married for a second time, I was talking to my mother and because my wife and I got engaged fairly quickly after we started dating, but I'm, you know, I'm, she's only nine years younger than me
Starting point is 00:27:46 and I'm 58, she's 49. And I think, yeah, is that right? Yeah, yeah. And so I was saying like, I don't know, I guess we did get engaged pretty fast. And my mother said, we can always get divorced. I was like, you know what, she's right. She's right.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Yeah, it is true. I mean, you know, it's sticky and there's complications, but really it's like, you're not doing anything more than what you're doing right now. You're just like signing a paper with the government and entangling your finances, which is all pretty fucking hot. You'll find that your sex,
Starting point is 00:28:24 now that your finances are entangled, it's gonna be mind blowing. That's usually, that's a real foreplay move for me is I say, do you wanna entangle your finances? Yeah, open some credit cards. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I hear you, Max, because I have never been married, but I have heard married people say,
Starting point is 00:28:42 after they get married, that it does, there is some, a shift, right? Like the first time you say like, my wife or my husband, that is a different feeling, right? Yeah. Yeah. Kinda? I think so. I mean, it's, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:58 My answer is simply like, I think what Andy's saying is also, is like, expectations think what Andy's saying is also, is like, expectations are kind of pointless one way or the other, either it's gonna be perfect or it's going to be so hard because in reality, like you are continuing on this like very deep, incredibly beautiful and intense experience
Starting point is 00:29:22 with someone partnering their life. How do you know that's what Max is going through? Cause I know. It might not be deeply beautiful. I mean, it's, if they've been there together for four years, it's all of it. It's just all of it. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:34 So you're just sort of like. It sounds like he nailed it. I was just, yeah, I was just being a dick. I'm sorry. No, but here's the thing is like, we know Max, okay? Okay, right. Max is a good guy. Max is a good guy.
Starting point is 00:29:44 One of my favorite streaming services. Max is one of the top, by the right good guy. Right. Good guy One of my favorite streaming services max is one of the top by way top six streams Yeah, yeah, they rebranded recently max. Thank you for your rebrand black and white now Yeah, yeah and what uh, and is your partner have you talked about this with your partner Yeah, yeah, I think that's what we kind of, we say is sort of like, you know, we've talked to our friends of ours who've gotten married and they've assured us that, oh, it totally feels different. And I think we are feeling a little bit nervous of like,
Starting point is 00:30:20 wait, okay, we need to make sure we feel different too. You know what I mean? Not like that it is. Good, it sounds like you found a properly pointlessly neurotic person like yourself. And so you're in good shape. You're gonna enter the world overthinking simple things together.
Starting point is 00:30:34 You guys can, you know, pointlessly worry together. Yeah. Where are you getting married, Max? Are you like, is this a destination situation? That's a good time. We are, we are. Well, we live in Charlotte, North Carolina. We're getting married at the planetarium here in St. Louis.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Nice. Oh, nice. Wow, cool. At the Carlock Planetarium. A couple other pieces of advice to getting married. Tell everyone to keep their speeches half as long as they want them to be. And with a joke. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:31:01 With a joke. Limit the real wild card speeches to the rehearsal dinner. That's right, right. Joke, limit the real wild card speeches to the rehearsal dinner. That's right, baby. Yep. And if you need an air horn when the wild card speeches go loud, just hit off that air horn and let your father's business partner know
Starting point is 00:31:18 that he is gonna wrap up that speech. Yeah. Also too, another wedding advice, feed them early and a lot. Yes. That's the biggest mistake you can make is not feeding them like the second that the ceremony is over or people go in a room. I think that people started going to a new move
Starting point is 00:31:39 where they now are giving people drinks and food before the ceremony, which I think is a real win. Right, right. Yeah, because that's the main thing people get cranky about. You guys doing that? You guys gonna do that? Our first stop on the way to the service. Nice.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Awesome. And you guys are getting married under the arch? Underneath the... That would be a terrible place. That would be a crass place. A planetarium. They're putting the... There's an obstruction.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Wait, hold on. The planetarium's not under the arch? No. Oh, well. Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. That would be a planetarium. They're putting the planetarium. There's an obstruction. Wait, hold on. The planetarium's not under the arch? No. Oh, well. Unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:32:08 I just, Jesus Christ. Does that make any sense? That's a limited view of St. Louis. Do you know that means I owe Tom Sizemore $1,000? Tom Sizemore. Jesus Christ. All right, well, good luck at your wedding, Max. Good luck, Max.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Thank you, Max. Yeah, and don't sweat it. I mean, well good luck at your wedding, Max. Good luck, Max. Thank you, Brian. Thank you, Max. Yeah, and don't sweat it. I mean, viewed from space, you're gonna have the same life. It might feel a little bit different, but it'll feel nice. And yeah. And it'll happen when it happens.

Starting point is 00:34:24 Yeah, it was just, I definitely don't remember it growing. It's just one of those things where suddenly it's there and you're like, what? You're changing a diaper, you know, doing some wipes up, wipe up with a wet wipes. And suddenly there's strands connected and you keep wiping trying to hopefully, you know, it's maybe a diaper filament or you know, whatever. Yeah, yeah.

Like, hey, check out my kids' hair and nuts. It just happens in roughly 1% of children and infants. It is benign.
Starting point is 00:35:26 It's just something that will eventually go away. Right, and then come back. How are you both responding to, are you both, is it amusing, is it anxiety inducing, is it, where does it fall for? Yeah. Oh, okay. Well, that's great.
Starting point is 00:35:43 Yeah, people's bodies are crazy, man. Gotta laugh.

Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:01 But I did not remember this until my son was born, and like, it shocked me how big a baby scrotum is. Like a baby boy scrotum is, it's out of scale to the rest of their body. And I remember asking, I mean, I remember asking like, what's going on with, and the doctor's like, no, no, no, that's just how it is. This show is a wild ride. I think that's just how it is. Wow. You know?
Starting point is 00:36:25 This show is a wild ride. I think that the medical term is B-A-B-B, it's big ass baby balls. Oh, big ass baby balls. I mean, I think that's like similar to, you know. Big ass baby balls. That's a hashtag you do not wanna click on.

Starting point is 00:38:43 Yeah, yeah. The way he's like so mean to his wife and everyone else That's hilarious Oh my I didn't like a real battle axe I didn't like it as a kid when the the youngest child from family ties was Andy Andy was sort of like oh, so you're sort of a dumb. Yeah, Andy. Yeah. Yeah, I didn't love that Yeah, wasn't a cool kid. Yeah, but Andy Griffith Well Eric, I'm sorry we I know you're in a bit
Starting point is 00:39:12 You've got a you've got a busy life and we're taking up your time. Tell us your story Yeah, so I don't know how I'm gonna beat alpha Chad baby So I don't know how I'm gonna beat alpha Chad baby, but I'll try. My son is very gifted and like I always heard stories about like famous geniuses like Oh, he was reading by age two. It's like, okay, but was he really though? And like yeah, apparently it happens. It happened with our first What we would do is we would read him like every night He would grab a book like the same book and we would read it and point with our fingers at the words and then eventually he memorized the words to the book and he was able to read it like back to us just verbatim and then eventually he
Starting point is 00:39:52 would just read the book back to us and he was doing this like pointing to each word so we knew he was he was really reading and not just reciting yeah which like he would grab books we haven't read yet and start reading those that's impressive yeah it is good that's good this was all at one before age two wow it was it was a pretty not like it was weird I also had no idea how to like no I like that you had a like a bullshit detector on like that's like nah is he really reading? Give him another book. Come on, point to the words as you read it. Yeah. Well that's amazing so yeah so so but I mean it's got to be kind of thrilling though. Oh
Starting point is 00:40:36 absolutely I mean it was very exciting and so when he was by the time it was to we gave him like all of our books all of our books, all of my Garfield books, our Calvin and Hobbes books. Looking for Mr. Goodbar. Yeah. Right, exactly. And then in addition to his real actual baby books. And then my wife and I also have a ton of bookshelves with books that he would just pull down and start reading.
Starting point is 00:40:59 So we would brag, like, yeah, our kid reads Stephen King. And then that was all well and good until he got to preschool. And then one day we got a call from the teacher asking about some of the things that he's been saying in his class. And so one of the books that he loved is a book by- QAnon?
Starting point is 00:41:17 The loved Twitter folk. A Little Life? QAnon. He was real deep into the QAnon hole. Sure. No. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Wait, what was the book that he loved?
Starting point is 00:41:30 Famous Twitter philosopher Johnny Sun. Oh, yeah. Called, Everyone is an Alien When You're an Alien 2. And it's about an alien who comes to earth to make friends. And it's silly and it's smart and it's beautiful. And it's very existential. Yeah. But and it's beautiful and it's very existential. But the drawings are adorable and purposely like very childish. So it would draw any kid in. So he would read this book, this very profound book, where one of the characters is literally a black
Starting point is 00:41:57 void representing nothing. And so he would repeat it, repeated all those teachers. So one day they tell us like, yeah, same stuff like sometimes a caterpillar will wait too long and die in its cocoon before ever becoming a butterfly is one of the things that he repeated back and another thing that you say a lot was being afraid of death is being afraid of nothing how can you be afraid of nothing yeah on it can I be honest Mike my kid is can't read for shit and it's making me crazy he's? My kid can't read for shit, and it's making me crazy. He's four and he can't read a lick, and hearing you talk about this
Starting point is 00:42:29 is gonna make me blow my ass. It's triggering, he's getting very raps. I'm so angry at my kid. Do you need to step out? Yeah, I'm gonna go call my kid. He doesn't even have a phone, so I don't know who I'm gonna call. But weirdly, my kid similarly is asking and talking about
Starting point is 00:42:46 like sort of these bigger questions like this, and it's super interesting, but it's confusing because they can really, they're really trying to understand these massive ideas, but they don't fully understand them. So they're like saying it out loud, I don't know. That's what I'm finding with my son of a similar age who's kind of talking in similar ways that movie? Have you shown him that movie soul?
Starting point is 00:43:10 The Pixar movie has watched so I don't think he grasped the greater concept How old is he now yeah He's a reader. He's a reader. He's not a watch guy. He's not a visual guy. Yeah, give him some time. How old is he now? Yeah. He's eight now. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. So, and so he's now reading constantly,
Starting point is 00:43:33 and does he read and talk to other, how does he deal with other kids? So he's in gifted programs at the school where they can enrich that. And then with other kids, he's fairly normal. He's very popular. It's funny. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Whenever we go to the school nights, kids are waving to him from all different grades. Teachers are in love with him. And I think he's a very big parrot of things that he sees and that he reads. And so he's always got a lot of interesting stuff to say. He was quoting Stephen King at two, which got him in a little bit of trouble. Is he still advanced for his age? Like is he still as advanced as he was when he was little? He's still advanced.
Starting point is 00:44:20 He's still in the smarter math class. He's like a math genius. We're wondering when it's gonna like kinda level out. Yeah, tell him not to burn out too quick. Yeah. Right. Yeah, cause I mean my son was very advanced with lots of stuff and then it kinda, you know,
Starting point is 00:44:39 like you're like, oh my god. That's just normal. There's a fucking Einstein here and then, you know, I get to be like eight or nine and it's like, oh okay., there's a fucking Einstein here. And then I get to be like eight or nine. And it's like, oh, he's just smart. It's like when you're the youngest, we're like, oh, you're so young. And then all of a sudden you're not so young.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Yeah, you're not the youngest. I was the youngest for years. And then all of a sudden I wasn't. And then the twins nine years later, Andy. Nine years later. Yeah, well, they're big balls. Wait, what? They're B-A-B-B-A's. B-B-A's. Yeah, well they're big balls. Right, what? They're B, A, um...
Starting point is 00:45:07 B, B, A, B, B. Yeah, yeah. You know, interesting too, when your son was talking about this nothingness, was he four? No, he was two. He was two? Wow. That is early. Yeah, it's early to be talking about nothingness.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Because of why we're getting phone calls. Sure. Yeah. That's early to be talking about nothingness. We're getting phone calls and wondering why he's quoting the descriptive prose and robust character development of Stephen King. Yeah. Was he talking about misery at all? Did he get into... He was a big it head.
Starting point is 00:45:38 He loved Pennywise. Oh, wow. Okay, sure. See, that seems abusive. Yeah. To let a child read that, yeah. We all float, he says to his teacher. My kid reads Stephen King's tweets.
Starting point is 00:45:52 He reads his, my kid only reads Stephen King's entertainment weekly book reviews. Oh, that's fun. Yeah. Wow, nice. Hey Stephen, take a fucking nap, man. It's doing too much. It's like Stephen King has thoughts,
Starting point is 00:46:06 like come on man, how many books can you write and then the articles? Just take a fucking walk. Yeah, yeah. Go relax, but not too much. Not too much. Right. Don't get too comfortable, Stephen.
Starting point is 00:46:17 That's right. Well, Eric, thank you. That's what I always say, every time I see Stephen King, I go, don't get too comfortable. Slow down, man. Slow down. He plays in a band, too comfortable. Slow down, man. Slow down. He plays in a band, too. Really?
Starting point is 00:46:27 Oh, wow. Let's go see him. They must be great. Every Red Sox game, that's kicking up again. Oh, wow. It's too much. Eric, thank you for the call. Eric.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Thank you for listening. It was a delight to talk to all three of you. Thank you. Thank you so much. God bless. Yeah, you know, four is because we had a dog that died. And when my daughter was, and it was when she was four. And it was, I did not know how to, you know,
Starting point is 00:46:56 I Googled it. Sure. And I did find that like four is like a very common, kids get death at four and they start to sort of like grapple with it. Yeah, yeah. Well, you hear those really terrifying stories of like really little kids talking about
Starting point is 00:47:14 like their awareness prior to being born. You've heard those stories, right? Which always freaked me out that that, I mean. My kid just at four has been talking about Richard Pryor. Oh Just like how he changed the game Underestimated as an actor right right now, and he said he knew all this in utero. Yes knew it all Yeah, yeah, which is crazy cuz we didn't watch it would put those little yeah, right Oh, of course, you wouldn't watch Richard Pryor.
Starting point is 00:47:45 No, no, no, no, no, no. Too transgressive. No, no, no, always. Always a Mort Saul guy. Never could get on board for Pryor. This is Mort Saul. I blasted Capitol steps at my kids when they were in the womb. Jared from Texas. You got... Hello. steps at my kids when they were in the womb.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Jared from Texas, you got- Hello. You got Andrew, Andy, Nick. Tell us- Hey everybody. Tell us what your story is there buddy? I'm good. Good. Yeah, so this is the story of the birth of my second child.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Okay. And just quick background, when my first child was born my wife was having contractions all day it was a very long process she started contractions morning we didn't even go to the hospital till 11 p.m. Oh yeah. So with the second child, we'd go to bed the night before. I know I just said no not you I was saying speed it up like to your wife like you know Yeah, yeah, which is by the way if you're you're partnering your partner's expecting great is always still yeah Can't you dilate any faster
Starting point is 00:49:05 Yeah, so when the the second one came she woke me up that morning. We had gone to bed. Everything was fine. She woke me up at like 5 a.m. And was like, hey, I think we should probably go to the hospital. And I was confused because she had not had any contraction. So, you know, obviously I know better than she does. Yeah, absolutely. About her body, clearly. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:49:19 So I kind of brushed it off. And then we eventually got up, decided to go to the hospital. On the way to the hospital, I was very hungry Yeah, you got a stop at Carl's jr. We did Yeah Got me a little got me a little breakfast sandwich. Yeah, you sound like a gym You sound like a real keep going No, we needed a car wash. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Well, yeah. I noticed. Yeah. I had to do the scratchers because you want to cash them back in right there. Hey, I'm trying to earn for the family. Yeah. Bread winner over here.
Starting point is 00:49:58 Oh. Yep, exactly. Okay, so you got the breakfast sandwich. Sorry. From a convenience store. So it's- I have my breakfast on the way. We get back, I you got the breakfast sandwich. Sorry. From a convenience store. I have my breakfast on the way. I get back in the car. We head to the hospital. We get up to our room. She's crowning. You know, chit chatting. We're filling out paperwork. And the nurse checks, my wife says,
Starting point is 00:50:18 let me see how far you're dilated. And I stand there as the nurse is checking, and she gets a kind of confused look on her face and then she just says, there are about to be a lot more people in here and she leaves. Then it turns out my wife was at a 10 already. Wow. You must've felt like a real asshole.
Starting point is 00:50:36 So the baby was kind of almost crowning then, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he was born less than an hour after we got to the hospital. Wow. Oh. All because I needed some breakfast. That's all right though, you know?
Starting point is 00:50:50 You know what, honestly, it's like timing a flight just right, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, exactly. You get through TSA, you don't need that much longer. No, right. Who wants to sit around in the terminal? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Do you ever see your ex-wife or a shoe? Yeah. Yeah. Is that? We are miraculously still married and have been for almost 18 years and she even had a third child with me. Wow. That you know of.

Well, let us have this tale. Okay. So my daughter who is 19, almost 20, is a twin.
Starting point is 00:53:59 So I have identical twin girls who were born in 2005. Okay. And so twin folks know how exhausting that can be. Um, and so we were, my then husband and I were big fans of Conan and Andy. And so it was late night feeding, um, lights off babies, you know, drinking bottles, and we are watching Conan and in comes John Pesce to do a bit called Retes where he was like, I don't totally remember all of it, but he was like, sort of animalistic and maybe running around on a piano or something. And my husband and
Starting point is 00:54:41 I at the time were just dying laughing at the sketch. Yeah. My husband and I at the time were just dying laughing at the sketch. Yeah. To this day, I have no idea if it was actually that funny or if it was just because we were so exhausted. Yeah, yeah. I need to know. Well, if it was 2005, that was after I had left because I could not take it anymore. I just, I had had enough.
Starting point is 00:55:06 No, I was actually living out here and doing my own thing. So I, but yeah, that sounds, it sounds pretty good. It sounds, yeah, you know. Was it called Ritesh? What was it? The-tesh. The-tesh. The-tesh.
Starting point is 00:55:21 It's like a character, like they brought him out and he did his own bit and he was singing and it was like he was in the wild or something. Like he's a wolf man. I mean, look, those late night nursing, you are a little slap happy. Yeah. But that sounds like classic Conan.
Starting point is 00:55:42 It does. It sounds like some real fun taking a character, someone from culture who is sort of talented, but sort of a jokin' of themselves. Yes, true. And then they understood that and they played that out in a humorous way and they gave it their all. Yep.
Starting point is 00:55:57 You know who probably didn't like it? Who? Connie Selica. Yes. You know what, yeah. You probably didn't love it. But she's used to it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:04 And she has to know, because you meet John Tesh, within two seconds you're thinking, this guy could go feral at any moment. Absolutely. Well, he's got that NBA and NBC money. But he's just these big. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. You guys know that story about Tesh, right?
Starting point is 00:56:21 Oh, yeah, sure. That's a great story. That's a great one. Yeah, and he plays it in concert too. Does he? He does. I would imagine. I haven't seen him in concert in years.
Starting point is 00:56:30 And not in years. No, no. You a Tesh head? Oh, absolutely. I'm a Teshee. Yeah, Teshee. Sorry, that Teshee. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:39 The Teshees. All right, yeah, no, I think you were probably right. If it was on Conan, it was funny, Amanda. Okay, well, it was a very pivotal moment and even though my ex-husband and I don't really get along so well anymore, we can still really laugh about the tesh. You still have the tesh. Yeah, yeah. You can say that to one of your other other of you at each other's funeral, you know We always had the test. You should call his new wife and tell her this story Give her a call. Yeah. Yeah, why not? You know what? Call Beth.
Starting point is 00:57:15 I didn't know about it, so we told them. I think everybody knows. So thank you guys. Thank you Amanda. Hope your daughter gets that quick care. Yeah We're gonna thank you.
