In my mind, I'm going to Carolina

Five four three two
In my mind, I'm going to Carolina
Don't you see the Sun beam don't you see the wind blowing in me
side myself going to Carolina in my mind I love Johnny Taylor man he's a great
great singer so what's his name James Taylor I love that guy man he's you
know what he reminds me of he reminds me of just wholesome purity wholesome white
purity the kind of whites that I've just always enjoyed in my lifetime you know
the ones that you know I went when I graduated from high school no one showed
up except for I think my dad was drunk but wait I thought but you walked to an
empty diploma right yeah so they didn't give me a diploma they said that I could
walk with them and then well that's why but there's a gate there was a big fence
so like maybe 500 feet away when you're on the stage there's a fence there's
stands and there's a fence and in the fence there was a white man his name was
Mark and he had his hands on the chain-link fence like that and he was
watching me graduate and he had a tear running down his eye and he was there for
me who's Mark who's Mark he's just this guy that I met in AA back in the day I
want to know what he drove like 45 minutes just to see me graduate and his
hand was in the chain-link fence like this where his legs up on the chain link
maybe a monkey maybe yeah I didn't see that far but he could have been doing
that just dangling you know like those barrel monkeys you see yeah yeah you know
and he was just like in my mind I'm in my mind I'm going to care a lot that type
of vibe yeah I really love wholesome whites and in this day and age you don't
see a lot and it really breaks my heart you know in my journey and through life
and I've had a very exhilarating not Lord of the Rings close not even that
close I never went to the minds of Moria I never did that swamp thing with the
dead elves and remember that dead elves and then and Gollum was just like don't
follow the lights right and then and then remember what Frodo did Frodo
followed the lights everybody was started sinking right sinking into the fat fuck
who's a fat no it was any of the fat fuck except fat fuck is Sam wise right
but Gollum goes hey I told you not to follow the light remember that scene so I
never did any of that but you know I've had it my own journey and in your in
everyone's life in everyone's life everyone lives their own journey okay
and you meet characters and you and you experience things right that's what life
is yeah there's downs right fatty that I wish people could have a view of what
I'm seeing what the splatter I know because that's why I have the wall yeah
the wall of protection it's the wall the Trump wanted to build we did it here
first we did it here first you're welcome so um and in my life so in my
life I shut up I love you I love you so fucking much gilly we get into a huge
fight every time he uses my computer every single time so he's not allowed to
use my computer anymore because trying to introduce the guy but sorry tell me
tell me so when I get my computer back after he's had an hour session on
zoom with whoever it there's like chunks of food all over the screen not just
random food blueberry everything selected blue blueberry protein bar that
we get where we ran out by the way at the order more warrior Sun Warrior it's
just like it's a chalky gross it's not I think I know it's it's it's to me I've
talked about the carnation breakfast bars when I grew up in the as a kid all
right I grew up with these carnation back they were the they weren't good but
there's just something about it that you're just addicted to so anyway I'm
eating that let me introduce the guy what do you think so I spit I'm on zoom I
spit it out because I have no teeth and I add little gaps in my teeth and I and
because I'm so powerful I have powerful breath diaphragm as well thank you and I
was gonna say that as well but I'm like a dragon without the breath right you
know dragons I don't I've seen a couple of my lifetimes so a big lizard that
breathes hard no no dragons bro like from the medieval days like right like
Skyrim shit you know how they blow remember fucking in the back to the
Lord of the Rings yeah the hobbit right circle right Mount Doom smog is not
smog smog correct that type of thing write it down man smog smog yeah and
you smog when he believe me if I it's it's I but I breathe out instead of fire
blueberry protein bar chalky shit do you understand what I'm saying everybody and
when you type when you type on the keyboard it's like braille because because
the blueberry chalky stuff goes all over the screen and so then it dries yeah
and then fucking complainer over here I mean my own personal Karen you better
I can't even I can't stand by that I can't I can't there is no bigger Karen on this earth than you Bobby that's exactly oh my god I just fucking

kidding babe that's not a fart I take it back I'm the Karen you are the Karen I'm
the Karen the house I take it back I'm the Karen the house okay all right
so Karen off so let's go back to the introduction okay because I had a whole
thing okay so um you know many years ago I read I met a man by the name of Andy
Santino and he doesn't like to be called Andy but he secretly does so people
please start calling him back very good logic it's logical right but I was
playing with Andy on Warzone leader day interesting and I would kept going Andy
come over here and he stopped and he goes if you call me again I just wanna
fucking you know me he gets really angry but he really does love it but my
point is this okay I get a call many a couple years ago and my agent calls
many goes there's this guy named Brandy Durmer or Brandon Durmer and there's a
show there's a show on vice and it's called what would Diplo do and what it
and I didn't know what I had a Google Diplo because I'm not in the fucking EMD
game you know I'm not into that whatever the game the game of fucking
don't don't don't don't don't don't I don't know I don't know you know but I
love the music when it's playing at the raves that I go to or when I go to a
disco tech what raves you got to I go to the ones in Ramona Valley oh yeah yeah
those are the best ones you have to take a map you get out there there's like three
people there yeah it's like people with like green bell bottoms and they have
sticks boom boom bunnies play the Diplo right right and if Diplo's there they
suck his dick by my point because he's so famous so I and I go oh my god this
guy's a real big credible DJ who else then they go Vanderbac James Vanderbac
right and I go I had to look that up right I look up James Vanderbac he was
in a show called the family of five what it was the cold Dawson's Creek the
dot yeah Dawson's Creek oh my god I did like hold on you fuck me up there that
was your new seventh heaven no no no it was the one with what is it five in the
hand no it makes things right drop drop in the hand makes things right family
times family family party a five party a party you why did you say drive I was
like but I told you not to talk I was trying to communicate I love you I mean
party five so anyway so then then I go and then I go what's the money like it
was real low it was like you know working at like Jersey Mike's money okay so I
go you know I said to my this is what I think that this is the program what I
said to my agent nah and I hung up the phone once they gave me the money I
go nah you know and then the redheaded freak Andy calls me over the weekend and
Andy goes um hey man um Durmer is super talented bro I go well who the fuck is
the Durmer he's a great he's from Chicago Chicago and he is super talented
you should see his real man he's like the next thing and he's a good friend of
mine did you should do the project and I looked it up and then next thing I know
I'm with Vander Vander and I'm with Brandon Durmer and we're over there on
Sunset Boulevard on some sort of office building remember that building and as
soon as I met him I went yeah that's my guy and I'll tell you why I'll tell you
why folks when you're shooting a show right and I've I've dabbled I've never
been a lot of things only like 12 movies and like six network shows whatever you
know just a little I get my feel the at all you mean for being a fat guy gook
right and and when you're in those shows and you're doing things it's like
there's there's an intimidation factor you know there's power plays there's
shadow play power plays going on directors and producers they don't really
necessarily know how to talk to the talent you know I get intimidated in me
because I'm shot I'm very sensitive creative multi-dimensional but sensitive
and but what I love about this next guest is I've never seen this before and
I'll probably never see this again but I had a fucking sad burp yeah little burp
it happens it's been happening every episode a little sad burp came up
because I've wolfed down on a side of all just now they just they just I just
postmitted and he I knew he was coming and I get the big one it doesn't have
bloops in it it bloops everything blueberries everything and peanut
butter and I swolped it down but when you don't breathe and you eat right sad
you try to gasp for air but then you'll eat acai a little arrow come in and then
more acai and peanut butter and blueberries and bananas right and then
there it traps pockets of fucking air also the worst kind of poos to have the
ones that are nuggets and then air and then we gotta get to air yeah I know we
gotta get to this guy no we're fine no no I know you have ten minutes left to
podcast yeah this is my because every you know my thing is is to string it
along also you're in a record right now how long it's it's like 15 minutes yeah
all right all right so anyway what I love about his directing style is in
between pricks he plays death metal not not in his earphones on speakers you
know stuff like that right like corn it's like corn right and then he'll go
action and the music and then the music will stop and then you're just kind of
trying to do it you know I mean but he also gives great notes like faster you
know I mean or I don't know what you're saying just pronounce it I don't know
what you're saying at all just do it better pronounce it you know just general
Meissner stuff yeah he's really just there was a time where you know at the
baseball scene was at the baseball you know where I had to do this like a motion
you know I'm you know very emotional not emotional but I had to be like stern and
do this say this thing I was really nervous but he's able to make me feel
more comfortable anyway he's a great director he works he does all of Diplo's
music videos he works with Michael Francis Dylan Francis I'm sorry Dylan
Francis another DJ you know I mean in Ramona Valley yeah I only know three I
know dip I don't know Diplo but I know of him I know Michael Francis and I know
Stevie Ecke Stevie Ecke but anyway Brandon Durmer give him a round of applause
guys he's a director writer I mean thinker thanks guys yeah how you doing
under during the pandemic it's fine what I was that was a lovely intro didn't
know you at all no I as a fan I like I said I'm just watching how the sausage
gets made I can just sit here and just watch I don't have to talk you guys keep
going I think about 50 episodes ago you talked about Durmer and you said you
likened him to a guy a wholesome gas attendant from some from Circle K
you remember that I still have people DM me that really oh yeah but that I I
want to give him a say something and further you literally do have a 1940s
like valet you mean or or via or you know they when you go to a hotel mm-hmm
and it's the guy a kid in the elevator Bellboy the he's not even a Bellboy he
just he's not which is it on yeah right it goes up you just have this kind of
like you know I'm very nostalgic old-timey you know I mean but also not
like you wouldn't be a soldier in the 1940s or 50s no you're more of like
you know the Baker son mm-hmm yeah I worked in hospitality for many years did
you really yeah in Chicago yeah well I is restaurants hospitality yeah what
restaurant I worked at the Weber Grill what's that the Weber Grill restaurant
yeah what the fuck is it like they make Weber they make food on Weber grills
like steaks and yeah oh what's a web Weber grill you know what a Weber grill
is let's do it let's do it let's do it vote in the room yeah you know what a
way also know the restaurant because I'm from Chicago oh really what he's
talking about oh so you know what the Weber grill is yeah okay what is it it's
actually grill it's a grill brand Weber grill oh wow how about you babe you
have you heard of it yeah I have heard of it fuck man I worked at potbelly I
was a sandwich artist for many years you a sandwich artist that's exactly the vibe
I think Bobby you were going for but not only that potbelly we don't have them
here I know delicious right what is I'll tell you what I like what do you like
in that potbelly I get the Italian I add mushrooms and extra meat extra meat you
know what I do Papa mm-hmm I'll tell you what I do Papa mm-hmm I love their
meatball sandwiches oh yeah with the pepper thing mm-hmm the Jardinair fuck
what how do you say it the Jardinair the Jardinair that's that's in my life
blood that's the best stuff ever that's what you ordered you ordered a couple
jars you can order potbelly Jardinair oh there you go also Domingos and Encino
they sell great Jardinair fucking to write that down Domingos now you guys
should get sandwiches there get some by the way I fully support your when you
suggested the the crustless from Luminati's thank you and Bobby through a
hissy fit because there was no crust bro let me say something it was the best I
think I still think it's the best it's really special yeah okay alright here's
the deal okay let's get let's get into it if you want to mm-hmm but one time
Carlos Mencia goes hey bro he goes hey bro I'm gonna lose weight bro I go what
is it let's go to in and out of my thinking in and out what the fuck we go
to in and out he gets a hamburger right no bun animal style just what you know
what replaces the bun lettuce fuck you lettuce you're right yeah but fuck you
was doing the Atkins dye it then back in the day probably yeah so he was a bro
I'm eating fucking a hamburger but not getting fat bro right and I'm I know
people are going wow in this day and age how come Bobby's doing an Hispanic
accent that way it's not an accent it's an impression by the by okay so when I
ordered the fucking stupid pizza that you suggested right and everyone at home
listening you're in a car driver or you you know I read a couple of tweets the
people will like close their eyes and sleep with me what I mean no is that
you're a lot of fans no no no that sleep with me but they'll sleep listening to
tiger belly okay that makes more yeah I like saying sleep with me hmm yeah but
the lay in bed and they listen so if you're listening now okay this is what
so what was it crossless so imagine it's their keto option there you go okay so
a pizza I'll just give you and I'm sure everyone's eaten one right and so
there's three elements to a pizza that makes it a pizza right it's a good
argument I've heard yes oh you've heard this argument yeah man may I say my
argument may I say my argument please do okay thank you I have another argument
to your okay let me say my argument okay we'll get to his argument and then we'll
get to your arguments okay I'm I'm stewing okay are you getting angry no
I'm just ready okay so you know a pizza has the crust part mmm the breading yeah
the foundation a lot of the foundation it also has some sort of sauce whether it
be pesto generally it's red tomato sauce a pizza sauce okay and cheese you can put
whatever you want on top as well these funky these funky fucking you know I
mean island Asians right they like to put shit like four meat and pineapple
right and but that's you know that it's America man right but whatever your
thing is sometimes I like to put you know extra dip like Parmesan red
peppers whatever it might be okay but those are the three things right if you
take one of those out right then it becomes cheese red sauce pasta topping
if you take the cheese off right it just becomes tomato on bread yeah right
it's not a pizza okay so this fucker right suggests is suggested me a
crustless so I go crustless I don't I want I because also in my mind I'm like
it's just not gonna have a crust yeah right oh I see what you're saying
exact bingo still a bottom just no there's gonna be a bottom there's got to
be a bottom okay my being too aggro no no no I think I feel like I mean to let
me so but it's not that what a crust is not a requirement then you're saying the
backing just needs a foundation I think I'm being too aggro about it but I'm
trying to check myself but what he what I got in the mail was um you know the
sausage you know how there's some sort of sausage in the pizza yeah that's the
fucking thing mm-hmm so the sausage is shaped like a fucking disc disc very
tightly woven together and the cheese and the and the innovative and the red is
in there so then I'm like you know you know you get minerals vitamins B plex
carbohydrates B plex carbohydrates yeah amino acids and you know things to from
bread FY you know this whole no-carb thing it's a fucking hoax folks right
it's right that the bread has B plex vitamins right it has amino acid it's
got it's got dynamic it's got dynamic you know I mean carbs dynamic is very
important you know carbs to insulate the body yeah and it keeps the engine
running yeah and without the breading right you're not really getting the
nutrients that you deserve the body needs okay so here I get a sausage bowl
you know it filled with cheese cheese and and red sauce and so go ahead your
jar no I'll pass it on so Bob the reason I suggested the the sausage crust right
because I heard you on the podcast talk about how you were eating like six a
week and I was just so inspired by your commitment to Luma Nadie's it's my
favorite place in the entire world and most people don't know about the
crustless pizza it's it's not secret menu like in and out stuff but a lot of
people don't order it I didn't learn about it until a year ago and I just get
excited to share this secret opportunity an item with you it doesn't replace the
pizza but it's an experience and it still sits with you and you guys can
talk about it and I just wanted to share the experience I'm inspired by your
commitment to Luma Nadie's it's rare I meet people from outside of Chicago who
are as committed as you are truly in fact he has only ordered food strictly from
Chicago no other state oh no that's not true you have a Detroit pizza and then
that's it everything else has been from Chicago surprisingly and that just warms
my heart the Vienna beef everything oh you get that too every everything from
Chicago well you know I have to say something about Chicago is it when I'm
at the airport first of all what do you call that airport oh hair or midway I've
heard of it or midway yeah it's oh hair I go to Chicago hair mm-hmm and I don't
know if you've been here but there's terminals correct mm-hmm something
happens at oh hair that I've never experienced anywhere else is there's an
underground tunnel connecting the two terminals what the fuck is on the ceiling
the lighting yeah it's beautiful you know it's not I want to my dream is to
shoot a music video in that underground little but do you know you know what I'm
saying I know exactly what you're talking about yeah the neon like yeah yeah it's
crazy looking it's beautiful I guess you know if you're like you know it looks
like if Liberace exploded yeah is it overwhelming is it too much it just
it's very 80s looking yeah it's very 80 like you know late 70s 80s vibe and it
just feels like you know it's little too I'm about to say something that I don't
want Chicagoans you know shaitan shaitan people say it yeah when I go to
Chicago air hair and I'm in the morning I go to this hot dog place that's in the
whole right and they have breakfast stuff but they always said we can make you
also a Chicago dog mm-hmm there's nothing better than deep dish Chicago pizza mm-hmm
there's nothing better than fucking you know the Chicago dog mm-hmm have you
been to Gibson's absolutely best steak house on planet Earth it's really good
right mm-hmm he's not saying it's the best he's saying it's really good that was
his way of saying okay I'll let you have your opinion but that's not my I like
Gibson's a lot I don't know if it's the best thing in the world I really like it
though I'll catch that and remember in the lead they shot they made that do you
ever watch the league that show with all the the folks in it they shot who's in it
the folks in it like John LeJoy, Nick Kroll and Paul Sheeran all them who else
Martou Plas, Steve Renazizzi, they pretend that the bar their neighborhood bar
it's Gibson's like the exterior shot they got is Gibson's yeah I you know I've
been on the show I know you have yeah yeah then why'd you ask me cuz I just
wanted to see your reaction yeah yeah yeah yeah they do and and and Renazizzi
okay I know it's not the best fucking steak house in the world right but you
really like it no it's not just that I like that it's it's I like things that
have been somewhere for a very long time like do you love the comedy store yes
why because it's been there a long time there's history around it I get it yeah
nostalgia I'm yeah but there's also you know the walls speak stories not just
you know things that happen there but I think I think buildings absorb energy
right and there are like just in terms of comedy cultural things events that
have happened in that building and only in that building and also I believe it's
haunted and also they have not changed really much about the club it's always
looked the same exact way so it's almost like you're going to into a time capsule
right that's how I feel about Gibson's I waited tables at a restaurant up the
street from Gibson's called Jake Melnick's and all through film school and
then we would tell you imagine you to be the best table waiter I was horrible as
enthusiastic but I would fuck up a lot and forget a lot of things one time one
time a couple was very rude to me and my manager deactivated their credit card
they were just like grinding me they're really mean really aggressive I used to
purposely stick my finger in the dishes while I'm carrying it yeah you know I
mean it's on purpose like if there was a salmon I would just stick my thumb in and
just you know what restaurant I can't say I don't want to get in trouble yeah
because I do because the I still have a relationship with them so I don't want
it yeah funny to me I just imagine like your whole thumb just in someone's meat
yeah yeah holding it like that little extra sodium for other things but I can
also imagine like huh is that where the bone was or you know I mean this did you
ever get caught or no no no I wasn't a good waiter though I you know I I just
there's I'm like my brother my brother's worse but there's a point where I just
kind of might I can't shift I can't pretend there's a lot of acting right
mm-hmm you can't go hey sir like they go hey buddy where's the ketchup right
they're just gets a point where you go hey buddy I'm fucking busy yeah and I
forgot mm-hmm watch your tone you know that comes out yeah just then that
reflects on the tip absolutely that always reflects on the tip you know so
um let's get into how you started directing
go ahead the whole thing just like why did you go to film school I did where
Chicago Columbia in Chicago not not like Columbia Columbia in Chicago George
hates when people say Columbia cuz he went to Columbia I know you have to say
Columbia of Chicago cuz the re the smart people get very offended to me I've
always heard that Chicago Columbia was better than the other Columbia you heard
of your first Bobby Lee on title they're just more you just absorb more
information there and greater people come out of that's absolutely George just
said he paid more money for less success because he went to the Columbia
Columbia Ivy League is there a Columbia College in Columbia I think there's a
Columbia College in Hollywood too I think I've seen that yeah there's a few
so you went to film school in the good Columbia good yeah it started I played
in shitty bands all through high school let me guess what kind of music like
scrimmo post-hardcore bullshit yeah yeah and why do you like that I don't know
yeah you do a little angry sometimes and it's just good it's good it's good
musicianship it's fun yeah but you told me once that you sleep to it it does
calm me I do find that it either really invigorates me or really is soothing
maybe because it's so chaotic and it takes away from the chaos of life I
could see that or of set to it's so chaotic you can put on this metal that's
far more filled with madness see that band above you it says drive like jay who
mm-hmm they're kind of like a punk math rock band pretty loud you're pretty like
screechy love and you're right I do listen to that when I go to sleep mm-hmm
I think because of my mind I'm so crazy in my mind I have so many thoughts and I
it for some reason even with the feedback and and the and in math rock it's
repetitious right I like counting the repetition of it right and it's somehow I
can get in sync with it so I get what you're saying it's like a meditative
mantra like you're following it constantly bro we've never been on the
same page until now my friend right now even during the show you weren't on the
same page we were that I say hey have you ever heard of vapor wave mm-hmm Bobby is
lately into this thing called well a couple waves one is vapor wave one is
the other one what's the one that sounds like the weather channel but with music
vapor wave that is vapor wave right I like cold wave music what's cold wave
again cold wave is sort of like joy division think of joy division but like
even less produced mm more synthetic and lo-fi yeah I'm intrigued it's very cold
like coldly cold because it's just distant and very kind of not metallic
but just lo-fi you know you'll like it you'll get what I'm saying if I played
you some ethereal it's just like yeah no it's just you know if there's a tempo
to mm-hmm I love when you do different genres of music
you know that kind of stuff right but vapor wave is more you ever see in in the
80s or 90s the weather channel mm-hmm and at nights you know how sometimes back in
the day you millennials won't even know or give us a chance I'll give you I'll
give you a chance back in the day when we were in I was in high school you would
turn on to TV at 11 30 and it would just turn off it would just go and there
would just be like rainbow like rainbow lines right or some channels would have
you know the statue of you know but you know in Vietnam when they were holding
the flag in place I don't know why I took 15 dudes to do that why did it take 15
dudes to do that but you know how they're holding the flag in place yeah yeah
America man look at my fucking flag you know they do that right and they would
be like an American god bless America and they would just have that photo and
play some sort of like but the weather channel used to have it'll just say
whether it's weather channel and the logo and this weird sort of music
like elevator music kind of that's but the vapor wave imagine that with a
little bit more of a beat that's vapor wave in fact the vapor wave I listen to
have like you know the forecast tomorrow they'll you literally you literally hear
it them say the force of cast tomorrow is 90 degrees over Fahrenheit this and
that I mean the traffic is really bad and they'll have that in it in it I really
like it do you remember the songs that you had on your MySpace page yeah the
same songs I listen to now what I mean there had to have been like at least a
rotation yeah the pixies I would I have always liked the same things the pixies
sonic youth I used to like the velvet underground Roxy music I liked television
I liked you like television from CBGB back back back then love the talking
heads what did you have on your MySpace page I was too focused on managing my
bands MySpace page and you never had a song on your personal I don't I honestly
don't remember was because I was so hyper focused on my shitty bands MySpace
paid was a band called Cellar Door because this is painful dark because
Donnie Darko stoned in high school like whoa do you remember that scene where
the teachers like the most beautiful two words in the English language together
are Cellar Door oh wow so it was called Cellar Door yeah so lame no I like it
it's cool because nothing ever think good happens in a cellar yes that's true
so the door you know yeah well no there's wine yeah yeah there's wine but
there's a kimchi cellar there's a kimchi cellar yeah so it was called Cellar Door
how many gigs you guys do we played like three every weekend all over in the
Midwest like basements in Chicago VF lots of VFW halls we play in Wisconsin as
well Indiana do you get any got pussy after the shows not really we weren't
got we weren't that heavy we would play we were playing with like hardcore bands
and then pop punk bands oh we were somewhere trying in the middle blending
those two yeah I was wondering because I was in a band as well I was wondering
what what's the end goal did you have dreams of being a rock star oh yeah I
want it so in high school I play in a band we made music videos for the band I
want to see those I do I made a lot in high school I was like I did that and
then me and my friends made sketch comedy for clubs at our school and we were
trying to be like the funny alt comedy so we would basically take UCB sketches
from Comedy Central and repurpose them to be about like Xbox Club the clubs
that would allow us to make videos their club so you're kind of like Rushmore
that guy yeah all these weird stuff yeah yeah so then you went to Columbia the
only one in my book thank you yeah Columbia and I better get kicked back
from them you will huge endorsement you will and you started you started film
school there yeah and what was your ultimate goal to do movies or I didn't
really know I played in another band after Cellar Door we got a cease and
assist from a band in LA that we had to change our name like 400 fans so we
changed our name to morning scene that band broke up but the I love that fucking
name thank you morning scene is cool yeah and then after that band broke up in
film school the bass player and I who's the production designer on what would
Diplo do we started a band called football weather so I played in that band
great fucking name thank you I love that band football weather is a great
there's a band called football or American football isn't it American
football yeah I love that band yeah American football they put like one album
yeah yeah they're good so I played so and then I I just wanted to study
everything so my friends and I saved up five of us we bought a Panasonic DVX100
a and we would just make a short every month because we were only required
through school to make three mm-hmm do you do one every month yep and we would
write star direct everything and just yeah so then I don't get I know how
comedy works I just don't know how your world works so you graduate from
Colombo mm-hmm and Columbia mm-hmm and you do you just move straight to LA I my
last semester was in LA I got in this like honors program at the CBS Radford
lot which basically every day two people from the industry from like a big
agent to an assistant or a big writer to an aspiring writer would come in and
sort of just tell their story and it was very informative that there's like no
right way to do anything in this business because like film school they're like
get your meeting 15 minutes early have your business card and like all that
stuff on the Colombo but then in this class you really heard these like real
world crazy stories you know what I do you know what it reminds me mm-hmm you're
gonna hate the story but you're gonna hate it give me a chance all right I'll
give you a chance so when I was on splitting up together we had some an
intern that like won some sort of thing or it's through a college or something
but you could she's just bright-eyed and bushy tailed right because she can't
believe she's on a TV set but then whenever I run into people like that I
act extra affected you I mean like I can't believe this is like I'll talk as
if you know you don't even understand what I'm saying yeah you know but you
know the rehearsal we were there and they're like what like I wanted them to
think that like it's so beyond right for me she's gonna go home and be like oh
my god like he was so eccentric yeah you were one song yeah yeah yeah she's
told that story and someone's told that story or like if she's sitting like
this person sitting around I'll just sit weird mm-hmm like this you know I mean
I'll sit like this and just go and just go just do nonsense yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah do you see that man the
son fuck it's so bright today and just act just act weird and aloof and she's
just all bushy tailed excited yeah yeah but I hope purposely do it just to
throw out you know me that image so anyway that like you so bad so do you go
to us so you did the Radford thing and then and then I got internships I'd like
five internships and I was hosting at restaurants I couldn't get a job waiting
tables here I walked up and down Ventura I walked from Vineland in Ventura all
the way to Sepulveda dropping I had a kick-ass resume Weber Grill Jake Melnick's
blockbuster I was real I could not get a job why do you think I think is to get a
job as a waiter out here is like a hot commodity and I didn't have a headshot and
I was a yeah that's exactly you didn't have a headshot I was a little dorky dude
in but I got a job as a host at a restaurant so I did that for a little
bit and then one of my internships turned into a full-time job as an
assistant so I was an assistant to a producer and a manager for four and a
half years oh wow what you can't mention I can't yeah it was called
underground films I was too I was for this guy Nick Osborne Trevor Angleson and
Oliopes all at the same time well you must have learned a lot there I did
everything because like you know in film schools perfecting the art my
friends filming our dick joke videos really like honing that in but there I
learned you know from just being on the desk and listening to those calls with
them and agents them and producers them and networks I learned you know
everything yeah that's cool that you say that because you know even when I see if
you go to any agency for instance and you see the mailroom department you know
all those kids are the future of the industry right they but they're you know
had the grueling job mm-hmm you know you when Andy Feroge was an assistant to
one of the agents at at CAA he had you know most assistants have their own
like cubicle outside the office this agent wanted Andy in his office so his
Andy Feroge's office was just in this guy's room so he would just get yelled
at mm-hmm you mean all day but you know there was always a smirk mm-hmm with the
agent you know man just putting this kid through the ringer oh yeah but Andy was
so fucking just gung-ho about it because he knew it was all in jest mm-hmm and
that he's just learning everything you need to know I think that's a very cool
thing that you did that I learned so much from that job like I had to read
you like you know 15 to 20 scripts a week I'd sit in on notes calls and then I
met that's how I met Andrew and that's also why I met John Lujuali so much of
my career started well wait so I want to know that meeting I Andrew was a client
there and I was the assistant be like hi Andrew you coming in tomorrow at you
know whatever and then and then did you guys okay so did you guys hit it off
yeah we hit it off on the Chicago thing yeah Andrew such a nice guy and then I
started doing videos with John Lujuali who was on the league he's great he's
great and he and I hit it off as well so you know he just moved from Canada I'm
just moved from Chicago we're both like the Midwest nice hi sorry everything and
we went to shows to UCB together and I was like I'd love to help with your
comedy videos on like nights and weekends when I'm not here so I started
shooting his YouTube stuff wow and then John was like we should get some of the
underground clients are like anyone you know funny in this and we put Andrew in
one and that was the first time we like really worked together but that was John
and I and a handheld camera how long ago 2000 and probably 10 or 11 wow so then
you go from there to how do you meet I got like okay so there's a couple of
things that you do right you you obviously you know you know did this
show what would do which is a regular TV show and scripted and whatnot right but
you're also known for doing music videos correct and so how do you hook up
with a guy like Diplo so the the quick version is I had to get off that no
quick this is your episode oh wow no quick this is your up thank you Bobby I
had to get off that desk is an assistant and I had to and I watched you
know how people are getting signed in Hollywood with music videos or viral
videos or a script I wrote a bunch of scripts I couldn't get anyone to read
them so I made a fake trailer for a fake movie that I knew would never get made
called flesh lightning about a kid who stumbles upon he buys it from James
Hong and he buys a flashlight a magical flashlight and he's banging it and gets
struck by lightning and then it pregnates the porn star who was molded
after Jenna Hayes wow and I somehow convinced fleshlight I just cold called
them I found their number online I was like hi I'd like to talk to someone in
your PR department I was like hey I have this viral video I want to try to make
and I need a little bit of money and they're like cool yeah let's do it and
they put up the money I made this thing wow yeah and I pulled every favor while
I was on the desk a lot of my friends from film school were like assisting
on set in the camera department and this and the other also from my time like I
got an amazing production designer who worked on big movies that my boss has
made and they also helped me cast it but that was the first thing to like get me
an agent and a lawyer and help me sell my first script wow so you do the flesh
light short right lightning short right it does it's it's good right because I
had heard of it and then all of a sudden you got an agent from that right and
then you were able to go into real rooms and pitch your shit yeah that was like
got me the first like I did generals everywhere from that short and while
still an assistant which was intense so I had to schedule the meetings like
perfectly so an intern could cover the phones while I like went and amazing dude
amazing but then how did dip dip do so dip dip came from you know from 2011
like 2012 I'm just reaching out to bands and making music videos for them like
finding their Instagram or their managers Instagram and like bombarding
them and then I stumbled into a bar and saw this band Necrogobble con play my
neighbor and my good friend Randy was like you want to come see this band
Necrogobble con I was like yeah sure why not I love everything and we're
listening the album on the way there and I was like man this is so technical and
masterfully written this is either gonna be like one guy in his computer like
12 boogie myth assholes just like and we walk in there and it's just seven dudes
masterfully playing this music but they just look like dudes and I thought it was
so funny their commitment to writing these intense songs about goblins like
I want to make a music video for you and they're like yeah we've heard that all
before like we don't want to dress up we're not gore and I took a trip to
Chicago and I visited my mom Wisconsin the drive back and I sat at Pippin's bar
and I just like this this character like spewed out of me and I wrote it I
pitched to the band they're like yeah let's do it we have no money so I've
reached out to like 80 brands relentlessly like here's who I am here's my
previous videos blah and I got three to pay for it and we put it out I didn't I
didn't think anything was gonna come from it but on like the third or fourth
date it was on the front page of reddit and then the day after that Diplo just
tweeted the word necrogalbacon and then I got in touch with his manager and yeah
bro that's a great bro you hustle bro bro I got the chill bumps on my fucking
skin right now yeah I'm getting teary eyed hey yeah I'm gonna say something
deal alright this isn't a dude right that that's its idol that's nepotism this
isn't a dude that comes from Hollywood royalty right this is a dude that went
to Colombo Colombo University right came out here waited I mean what couldn't
wait tables hosted couldn't wait hosted at places right and but what I love
about it is is that it's a guy that everything that you have right wasn't
handed to you you are the one because for imagine making phone calls to fucking
you know companies going hey I don't even know who to call PR PR department you
know I mean hi you know imagine doing all the footwork that you need to do and
it's so funny about him because if you look back at Diplo when I told my agent
no right that wasn't enough for him he went to Andy Andrew Santino and go dude
you gotta make the call convince him right most people are like oh we'll have
to find somebody else not this guy he knew who what he wanted right so he made
the effort I'm sure that even if the Andrew Santino didn't work out he would
find another another angle my point is is that you know that's just who he is I
know what other angle he would have taken after Andrew what he would have used
the mad TV connection to the character that you played right no who did you
play who did I play where yeah just go ahead go ahead no no go ahead what do
you mean the man you played a manager right I played a man oh okay that's right
there you're right yeah wait what no this is it this is it so you mean through
Clyde yes so in Diplo show I play a manager who was based on a real guy and
his name is Kevin Kevin I love Kevin so Kevin the guy that I played on your show
you're right now okay okay so there right so but when I was on Matt TV
Kevin's dad frequently did Matt TV because I always requested him because if
you ever see Star Trek or Godzilla or any of these movies there's always a
Japanese man the in the same guy that I always you know whenever I saw Clyde on
a movie back in the 80s I mean oh there's that guy again because I guess
being an I minority you just kind of cling on to people that look like you so
you there was a host of five dudes that were working you know I mean so I became
friends with Clyde's a great guy but it was so maybe that would have been an
angle that he could have used is that what you're saying yeah because that that
that sits deeply with you yeah in fact that was one of the first stories you
told me about the character that you were playing yeah I yeah you're probably
right I would have done that I have no shame that's what it kind of comes down
to I'll just like I was scared I was like Andrew I hate asking favors but like I
really want Bobby we all really want Bobby he was the top on the casting
directors list we just got the call he's out we are all so bummed I'm sorry and
then the next day you are on Doe boys another one of my favorite podcast I'm
like fuck this is rubbing in my face I gotta somehow get to Bob but it's but
it's not only that but it's like I've noticed you recently too because last
week you called me mm-hmm right and I didn't respond to you I know you know how
does that feel it felt fine okay thank you I knew you saw it I figured you yeah
yeah I did see it right I have a reminder when you're recording this podcast to
attempt to remind you about yeah so you know I want Brandon to direct my
comedy special my stand-up special and if when I when I get when I get it done
when I have it done right you're gonna direct it but you've been very proactive
about reminding me but may I remind you though there weren't a fucking pandemic
and I haven't done stand-up in fucking five months and you know I'm just
waiting for this to subside mm-hmm until we get a vaccine or whatever the
fucking country does mm-hmm and then we will get back into business of doing it
mm-hmm but that's why I didn't respond to you last week because I'm like I know
that that's in your nature to be proactive mm-hmm right so um that being
said fuck you yes thank you okay no you're gonna be my guy I love oh I know
I know it's not that I'm not worried about losing the position yeah I'm just
excited about it and want to keep stoking your excitement so we get it done
but this is what I love about you man that's why um you know I I always want
you in my life for the rest of my life I think you're super talented to like um
thank you the talk about this talk show I did with the green goblin oh the
goblin so yeah I didn't even answer your question of Diplo but that yeah let's go
no let's go back to dip dip but that but that also goes to the green goblin so
Necrogoblin comes out Diplo tweets the word Necrogoblin I get on the phone with
Kevin and he's like let's do a major laser video which is one of Diplo's
bands and we made this music video and it went well and it just kind of snowballed
from there where you know Kevin or or Wes or someone else from that team would
come and be like hey Diplo's got a music video or we got I wrote this video that
Warner Brothers passed on for a different artist and I sent it to them and
I'm like I want to make this and they're like oh we got this guy Dylan Francis he
would love this and then I started working with him through that and then
yeah and then what would Diplo do came about because Diplo is like I need a
trailer for my upcoming tour my Mad Descent block party his record labels
called Mad Descent and at the time I took a few meetings where executives were
like we want to do a show about DJs whether it's like entourage or ballers
and I'm like man these guys are so not that but also some friends back home were
like man he must be so lit and crazy and so I wrote what I thought people wanted
me to tell them Diplo is like this super handsome white guy who's like yo it's lit
and like always surrounded by women and money I was like maybe James Vanderbeek
could play him he kind of no honestly that's how it came about yeah so wow so
then I I had my manager send James the script and my real and he's like yeah
I'm down if I can meet with the director and James's only caveat was like can
there be a fight scene in this thing absolutely yeah and we made the the
trailer and then we put it out to promote the tour I never thought you know
anything else would come from it and then Nick Widenfeld who was at Viceland at
the time was like I think this is a show and he showed it internally to like Eddie
Moretti and Spike Jones and they were like yeah maybe this is a show Wow wild
wild so now I'm on the show here's what's sad about what would Diplo do it's
bittersweet it's not even sweet really yeah um yeah that number one
I'm gonna get emotional but it could be one of the my most favorite things I've
ever done thank you no it's not you okay fuck me I love you yeah yeah no it's
because I love James a lot he's done Tiger Belly mm-hmm and we've we've also
had Dylan Francis on twice mm-hmm so James I met James and Dylan on what
would Diplo do obviously I knew I met you through that but it literally was
kind of like so weird and quirky and I just thought like this is this could go
and so when we shot the fucking show we did a season how many episodes five five
episodes I thought okay this is my new thing it just never happened again I
know and it was a bummer because we got critical to claim like we got a good
rotten tomatoes we have really good reviews out there but the powers that
be what you can watch on a Hulu right it's no longer on Hulu it lapsed it's on
Amazon Prime and iTunes mm-hmm it's on iTunes and Amazon Prime yeah want to
check it out Bobby's great in it okay you you crush it you're funny you improv
you gave us all the gold and then also this this scene at the baseball stadium
yeah I did you know what it's so grounded that's what was great about it so
talk about the neck or neck neck around neck or gobble con so yeah after that
video blew up I've been like the silent band member of that band ever since like
I work with the band in the creative direction of John gobble con I run his
socials and such and since then he's now got a talk show we I we were approached
by a publishing company I wrote his book that you can now go John gobble
con to life yeah oh yeah oh yeah and then I'm hoping there's more in the works
but this talk show and you're so sweet to drive all the way downtown and do this
yeah he's got a talk show where he interviews guests and they talk for that
was a cheap a very funny funny weird interview it was amazing yeah I thought
it was really good who's done it who's been the guest on that shit I had Joe
Truman from fallout boy Wow West Borland from limp biscuit was there who was
freaking out that you were showing up after he's stuck around for you to walk
oh did I did I introduce you I remember I remember him yeah yeah yeah um we've
had on Keith Buckley from every time I die who is in what would Diplo do yeah
yeah I love Keith um who else have we had
he's the best keep up Keith Buckley's the best of every time I die um Whitney
Moore super funny um lots of lots of folks well listen buddy number one you
came down that was so sweet of course I was gonna come down for you frucker I
love you so fucking much dude I really do I know I love you I really do love you
so fucking much I love you too that's why you're here you think that you're
here because you're some famous guy no how many times have we asked you to do
the show multiple times yeah exactly who canceled be be real David Spade he
can't oh but he had to move things around okay fair he never know that's not
true also we can get a hold of him so on George's episode on George's episode you
talk about how um you never want the producer to reach out to you to be on
podcast yeah yeah and then George reached out to me because I called you I
facetime you last week for the week the weekly like hey I'm still excited about
this I screenshot in my face smiling so you knew all right well I'll be honest
the way it happened last night I go who's the guest and you said I said
Dermot and I go oh cool fair you think you think that let me ask you
something you think that I know what the fuck is going on true fair fair you
think that I have a calendar he doesn't know all the other times I've asked you
to do okay oh I've been asked a lot I don't know what the fuck is going on yeah
yeah all right but you're on top of it like I'm what would Diplo do you were
like there every day I don't know what's going on ever you do
you do thank you remember the tea at says like you knew your schedule so well of
like I'm traveling I'm doing stand-up I can't be here for this like you were on
top yeah yeah god oh god this fucking pandemic remember the days oh yeah we
had fucking a lot of life yeah yeah so you want anything to promote myself I
just have music videos and commercials coming all the time I've chosen
development that hopefully one day we'll see the light of day Bob will brandon
derma is on Twitter and also Instagram Instagram is verified oh wow are you
verified yeah yeah yeah what would Diplo do to that I don't know what happened
you know because you're special mm-hmm and directors rarely you know at your
level get verified that's because you're on your way up thank you I really
believe you're on your way up I think and also you know me and Andrew you know
if you know this but um you and I are gonna pitch a bad friend show mm you know
maybe you can direct I would love to you know you are you guys are some of my
two favorite people we love you so much you know um but you know I think you know
a horror show goes at the end we do a thing called unhelpful advice yeah and
maybe you're little you can get a little quirky Midwest oh sure you know I mean
yeah oh I just want to say one more thing it's
derma who always sends me links every time junko jeans what do you call it
they're closing sale yeah going under they're always going under they're like
a rug shop on Ventura that's always right and they haven't gone under since
it's their inception so but every time now they have overalls that you just
sent me mm-hmm very happy about that you guys should get sponsored by Jinko I
feel like you guys should be sponsored by Lou Melnati's and Jinko is that how you
pronounce it Jinko Jinko Jinko jeans Jinko I wanna say Janko I want to be
sponsored by a lot of people I said Jank is that a Filipino thing I it's a
Filipino thing I just I like it's just like when you say wait hold on
Janko boo I always say boo boo like remember how people used to say Ruka
me rock that is it is it I don't know is it Ruka it's Ruka oh what are we talking
about I was just thought it was Ruka because and I thought it was like ran by
a Latino person and it's not it's a Hawaiian brand okay Ruka means like
chick this is just the thought processes of a Karen can't say that Bob that's
like the n-word man oh he's projecting I'm projecting my own shit wait but Bob
whenever the world is ready or even before that I'm ready for you I know
already dude I'm ready I'm ready to start filming where are some of these
ideas for the special no let's go one unhelpful advice I'm hopeful vice with
Bobby Kalala and Brandon Derrick my father used to drive into school when I
was in seventh grade one day he left our house at a normal time around 7 a.m. and
everything seemed normal we saw kids walk into the nearby elementary school and
the normal radio program was on however when I arrived to school there were no
kids or cars I walked into my classroom and everyone was already watching a
movie I was two hours late my father was also two hours late for work we lost two
hours of time with no blackout or a recollection of what may have happened
everything was completely fluid my theory is that maybe we passed through a
spontaneous wormhole that shifted us in either in time or dimension this would
potentially mean through in our old dimension we are missing persons and I
can't help but be sad for how our family and that world has felt all these
years thoughts how do I figure out what really happened to us we have pen and
paper if you guys need any help just made me think of like a Twilight Zone
episode mm-hmm has that ever happened in your life where you kind of blacked out
for that amount of time no maybe in college but yeah I've never fully fully
blacked out but there were times and like my peak anxiety and I blamed my
anxiety where I felt like I would wake up from a nap at like my sister's house
and I could not for the life of me snap back into reality like I was caught in
some caught in some like psychological limbo of feeling like I was not really
living on this earth and it happened for a few hours and I would sit there and
cry I would tell my sister like wake me up can you wake me up she's like you're
awake I'm like wake me up like I was trapped so I don't know if I was a part
of me was in a different dimension and just kind of in a limbo between two
different dimensions but I don't know that that that seems like that does
seem like a Twilight I get that with the anxiety though I call it like time
consumption when I'm having a panic attack my anxiety is at peak level time
is irrelevant and I just waste time panicking guys I don't think I've ever
blacked out like that it happened to the father and son okay and the odds of both
of them having anxiety attack and having two hours go by that quickly is so I'm
gonna say something number one the X-files pilot had that so it could be
in the work of some alien my point is it looks like the work of the little
grays so you think they were taken and then you know what the little grays are
what are they little great little spacemen that's right but it's not
they're just not little spacemen they're actually the first alien species that
had contact with the our planet and they live amongst us in these underground
bunkers military bases they're here yeah tell up what they have telepath yes
they're here I don't like your tone I'm looking up X-files the pilots oh yeah
they have telepathic abilities they don't have vocal cords they and communicate
and I do have a little gray story that I'll tell on another podcast but it's
true you feel like they've gotten a hold of you not me personally but when I was
18 years old I was in Lemon Grove and I was at an AA meeting and there was a
man in a suit there he looked like he was in the FBI and he goes hey kid my
name is Max I go are you gonna bless me that's whenever whenever a man in a
suit they look like Tommy Lee Jones yeah when they they already asked me you
know I mean hey kid I was asked are you gonna bless me so I go and then I became
friends with this guy and then one day he looked like he had been through like
an alcohol oh drug binge he didn't have a suit on anymore he kind of had like a
Hawaiian shirt like I have on now looks scraggly and he goes you may never see
me again kid I'm this is not a lie I'm not making this up and I go and this
could be just a crazy white man who I just happened to run into I go what's
going on and he goes well you know I I worked for the local FBI San Diego FBI
or something there's no there's a local FBI every city has their own FBI right
I thought it was a federal thing yeah but they have their own like agents and
officers right and I go he goes yeah and I got any goes well I'm not no no longer
living there living out of my working there I living out of my van so he had
this van parked in back of this a meeting it was like a church and in the in his
I'm not kidding you I saw his van in the van there were like shotguns like on these
racks right like stuff like computer wires and all that kind of stuff but
then he had files files upon files of like documents you know I mean
and he would open them up and he go and he was telling me about these little
grays I'm not kidding you right and then I never saw him again you got to find
this guy he's probably dead why did he say you would never see him again what
was his reason I don't know what the reason was but I never did see him again
hmm what were in those files alien shit man I just told you that man and you
saw it with your own eyes yeah man real fucking military files on the fucking
little grays man you know the lead the former lead singer blink when 82 Tom
DeLonge has a show on the history channel right now all about UFOs well
didn't he start that yeah and he's the producer on it yeah yeah also I went to
high school with them did you know that I didn't know that did you really yeah
it was two years before me when I first came to California while still in film
school to look for a place to live I saw him on the street I said Tom what are
you doing here and he said what are you doing here the second thing I wrote
down ex files but the second thing I wrote down about this guy story and
this I'm not assuming anything before we continue someone on the internet called
me blink 182 times that's a good money that's a really good that's a new
place I have excessive blinking from anxiety Bob did you see blink 182 in
high school like when you were growing up they weren't they didn't start the band
then okay yeah it was only when I graduated that's when they started the
band there was another band locally called unwritten law oh yeah yeah in my
town too that's awesome I had a weird high school you know I came from there
and also a couple years after before me was Stephanie Seymour she was a
supermodel yep yeah yes that she dated Axel Rose a baby with Axel Rose so yeah we
have a really weird a la Marta you know what you know and I don't want to talk
about highway hi because they still haven't put me I've heard about you
know that video that music video for November rain yes wasn't it Stephanie
Seymour and she had that no wedding pussy and I never ever imagined myself ever
getting married and I was younger but I remember in my head I was like oh that's
the dress I'm gonna wear the other unhelpful advice I want to say about
the thing is is that two hours and I'm not saying this has happened but it
something traumatic could have happened in that two hour that you blocked so
maybe there's a late for work for the some other he was wasted maybe maybe the
dad and the son experienced something right that was so traumatic that they
blocked it in their head and they showed up he just showed up at school or your
dad just woke you up late try to pass it off like he wasn't a bad parent and got
you to school two hours like so that's the third and then try to make it seem
like that's the obvious thing and now you've grown up thinking of this your
whole life yeah did you guys see that documentary hidden in plain sight abducted
yes abducted in plain sight and that that poor girl grew up for how many years
thinking she met aliens and yep you know what I mean all from a lot that was the
most enraging documentary yeah I felt really sad oh is that the guy that the
perverted man yeah and then the family just kept letting her go back to this
person over and over again they kept forgiving him because you know they're
Mormon and they're forgiving remember that I hate that I mean I'm just just by
him bringing that up yeah it just brings me back through I blocked that
documentary it's very gruesome it's effective and for the lengths this man
would go through to to make it seem as though that there was some type of alien
connection and they were living in that trailer in Mexico somewhere yeah and
with the tapes and the messing with the audio that poor girl and the woman that
she grew up to be it she's so she's so self-aware of what happened and has
like processed it and their family is intact yeah like they are all talking
about it like yeah this happened but we're really close and I'm like how do
you even forgive your parents after that yeah oh I want to throw out another
documentary that has nothing to do with what we're talking about yeah but it's
called Jasper Mall I don't know it it's a little quirky little documentary and
it's about a mall in in the south that's closing down it's like you know in a
small town called Jasper I don't know Arkansas or whatever but it just shows
you know the stores and you know the old men playing you know Domino's at the
court yeah and it's really depressing but it's really cute and I really highly
recommend it I also want to recommend to the people listening to really get
involved with Brandon Durmer and what he's doing in his life because he's
our family and we are gonna be doing a many many many projects together and I
also want to say God bless America and God bless the US of A and we're gonna
make through this yes we will let me ask you something George did your
episode do remotely better than any of the other episodes
that's not good that's not good that's not bad that's not good either as a
longtime fan of the show I was excited to hear the George episode and then did you
feel as though we did God we didn't why did you say that give him his we didn't
give him the limelight Bobby refused to I said okay we're gonna ask George from
beginning I thought about his life and he's like nope that's not what we're
gonna do all right guys guys I give this I really shut the fuck up man all
