It's not mine Yeah pregnant we had pregnant sex the other night. It's pretty wild because I think they feel more yeah They're more sensitive. I've always wanted women to be more sensitive. That's my Well physically physically I love I love Nicky's joke at the globes where she goes. Uh, what was it? Fuck I'm but between the joke I'm bringing up but it's like, you know night bitch queen Oh, yes, just things Ben Affleck says during sex wicked. Yeah. Yeah, I love that one boy She brought out the twins on the the writer photo by the way. Good Lord I love that our friend Mike Lawrence in the top right the only one who's not in a tux or a suit

That's right. Everyone else is dressed to the nines. He's in a fantastic foreshirt He looks like the homeless guy that got in for the bagels We gotta give a shit what I what a set that was great. I'm not talking about the tits I know I thought you were but I'm talking about is that Bonnie? Yeah, Oh Bonnie McFarland a lot of great writers in here Yeah, great writer A lot of great writers in here. Yeah. Great writer, a lot of great writers. I saw JP last night at a New York Comedy Club and I just went like, hey, and he goes, hey,

and I go, congratulations! And he was like, thank you, he was waiting for it. He wanted it. You know, she ran the set 130 times. Oh my God. 130, I mean, this is a workhorse. So let's do the math there. So that's like, she had what a month?

She had a month? You gotta math out. No, it'll math out. Save a month, 30 times what, five? Is what? 150. So you said 130? Yeah.

So that, yeah that makes sense. You bounce around, I could see that. Maybe she had longer than that. I think she had a little longer. She's known about it for a while But yeah, that's she's a JP was telling me it just kept changing and morphing and I was like we had the same thing with The roast yeah, I did the same thing with my kid Transitioning

No look I Totally get it cuz you're like what is that a four-minute set and you're like 130 I get it 140 sets. Yeah, you gotta run it You got to run if I learned anything from that jelly roll bomb you gotta run it the infamous jelly roll bomb Have you seen that taken off online? I have some fucking chooch made a YouTube video like Mark Norman has meltdown I'm like, yeah. Yeah, I brought it up dickless. You're not uncovering footage of it. No footage of it? No, no. Oh, good. They don't, right? No footage. No, no. Oh, thank God.

I can't have that out there. It's like Epstein's suicide. Oh, I'd rather that. I'd rather be on the island. Put me on that list. He had a more graceful death from what I've heard. Yes, exactly. At least he got off.

But yeah, yeah. So she killed it and she looked great. Even like the little silly stuff, the Adam Sandler chalamet thing you see that I mean It's a risk to do the voice Because she hadn't done an act out to that point. It was all kind of just straight jokes totally She's like whoa ha ha you know yeah and we're thinking you're like oh shit

There's a risk, but it worked it worked because it wasn't killing and then Then she kept going and then he saved it. But then she kept going, and then he brought it in, and then she took another risk with that pope thing. I respected it. Wait, what was the pope thing? She did the Conclave Wicked Musical thing. I didn't see the pope.

Oh, it was cool. Okay. You know, it was just silly. Yeah. Like she did a little bit of that combination, and then she started singing it, and she did a mic in her ear like oh this is terrible It's bombing and hurt. She was just trashing herself

Like are you I'm making a fool of myself in front of Elton John. Yeah It was fun. It was it was silly. The only person who I know didn't like the monologue was Joe Coy Dude that was a year ago. I totally forgot about it. I was January 20 24. Yeah Yes And how much you gotta prepare I mean 130 sets look at that writers room. What is that 20 guys? What how many people is that? I think it takes a certain type of comic though to host it It yes just cuz you kill in one area doesn't mean you're the right fit for this, you know? What did she bring that he couldn't?

She's a jokey kind of comic and I think he's more persona, act out, stories, likable. She's more cutting and she knows a good joke. She's done a million roasts. Conan's doing the Oscars. Maybe this is a sign that funny is back. It's not about anything but funny now. That would be great. What a concept.

Funny. A funny host, a funny comedian. I want to hear more about the war. That's what I want to hear. More war references. Yeah, yeah, I know. More celebrities saying we need to do something. That was one of our best jokes is the one that like you guys can do anything

Except tell people how to vote Because it's like kind of like that's the tone now and that yeah, you know Right, whatever. All right. Well Whitney went for it to a Whitney's had a little more of a QAnon bent but She had a she had a crazy joke heavy Rant as well at the end end she said Sandy Hook wasn't real which I thought was weird. But no, I thought what Whitney did was really funny

because up top she's just like, I mean to me it reminds like the shit we would do on morning TV but you're on CNN New Year's. Yes. So you're playing really to the people at home. You have to just accept you're gonna bomb. Right. That was a tough scenario

She stayed in the pocket. I couldn't believe it. Yeah, I mean Anderson Cooper wanted to kill her Yeah, he just got a pay cut too, so that must have been awkward like you sitting on my network right after I got a pay cut Yeah, well, he'll be alright. I think he'll be fine. He's made a lot and he's a Vanderbilt as well Oh, yeah, he also looks like he's made of of icing doesn't he's like too white. It's bothering. I thought you said you wanted to eat him Sure he is he is uh That doc on him was brutal. Did you see that? Oh, I mean he watched his brother kill himself What he said he had a dark life his brother commit suicide at Dalton. I think he was at home No, he jumped out the window. I whatever he saw you can look it up I'm pretty sure we watched him. This is uplifting stuff. Oh I brought it up. I'm sorry. It's my fault. I had no idea yeah, Andy Cohen's a fun guy

I'd like to hang out with him. He's a saucy dude. Oh, yeah Big fan he gets after it he drinks. Oh is that the brother yeah? The 35 years a day since my brother Carter Cooper. I think of him and miss him every day. Well there you go man Well, that's my wreck for the week Documentary now I got a wreck by the way And it's I I know we got emailed this wreck when we used to do more patreon stuff and when we would take User emails it's a movie called Fuck I can't believe another round. Oh

Danish movie and Mickelson dude. It's amazing with the booze. It's about these Teachers who are all miserable and they decide that you know they're talking about this philosopher who says Your blood alcohol level is 0.5 too low. So if you can maintain an alcohol level of 0.5, then you're going to be better at your job. And this guy's a bore. Everyone can't stand him. He used to be interesting, but now he's just become boring. And now at school he's, the kids are loving him. He's engaging. His wife is fucking him again, you know?

But then it's like, of course it course, it spirals out of control. So it's, there's parts that are a little slow, but you gotta give it a minute to build, and dude, the ending's amazing, it's awesome. I saw half of it on a plane, I remember enjoying it, but I haven't seen the ending. Gotta finish, man, yeah, our buddy Ronon Hirschberg, who by the way, made a short horror film film that is amazing. Come on. I loved it

Well, he shits on every goddamn movie. We better bring it. He better bring it. I can't wait to see it It's very good. Okay, great. Very good. And he like this. He loves it. Oh great. Okay. Hey, it's what he said He's like you should watch this. I'm like, alright slow down. He goes up He goes I hate everything so my rec should carry more weight and I go, you know what you got a point I guess so. He carries weight. But, yeah, he's one tough heeb to please, so I'm excited now. He really is.

He's a tough cookie. He's Ebert. He's our Ebert. He is our Ebert. Eatbert. Okay, but, I was going to say one more thing about Nicky, but I'll move on. All right, no. I'm growing up. Well, I was going to be a butter boobs about Nikki but I'll move on. All right, no. I'm growing up.

Well, it's gonna be about her boobs. But it's all a good one. Look at me moving on. Huh? Count it. But yeah, you're talking Rex. Squid Game is blowing my tits off. The thing about Squid Game is it's wildly violent, crazy murder.

See she was all legs before and I feel like she's finally bringing the ladies out. The problem with the thing is like, we already have ADD, him doing the things, you were in the middle of another story. I know, and he brought the cans out. You're talking about Squid Game, he's looking at pictures of Nikki's legs. Literally, Google Nikki Glazer's boobs.

The problem is, this is like when your friend's ignoring you while he's on your phone, but you see his phone. Ah ha ha ha, yes, exactly. This is Sally Keats' screen saver, is's tits but he typed in her legs it was already up there for some reason he already been searching this. She's a friend I'm not I'm saying this as a friend obviously but she's always been the leg gal hey look at me in high heels hey look at me in the short skirt look at my legs crossed but she's always had a great pair and you know I've known her for years and I've been waiting

for this reveal of like, hey, one of these, look, see, it's all leg, leg, leg, leg. You're right. And finally, I feel like the cans are coming out and it's right on time, if you ask me. I was gonna say, I thought she's grown as a comedian. Yeah, you know. Oh, yeah, yeah.

I don't care if I'm right. No, you're right. She's definitely, it's like when a player starts rebounding too. Yeah. Not just a score anymore, you're doing all the other stuff. Right, right. Look at you, Nicky.

Wow, look at that. Hey, so that's what I'm saying. It was legs for days. And look, the legs are great. Nice set of stems. Are you a leg man, a butt man, or a breast man? I like all of them, that's my problem. Me too.

I resent when people ask, but I felt I needed to ask. Yeah, well, man, or a breast man? I like all of them, that's my problem. Me too, I resent when people ask, but I felt I needed to ask. Yeah, well you know what's underrated? Hip to waist ratio. Ooh. That's what nobody talks about, but that's what hits the caveman. Because you want that Jessica Rabbit type.

Yes, you want the hourglass. Because somebody see a hot lady, but it's like this. Whistling And that really doesn't hit the primal passion, like the, you know, and hips are great too. Well that is kind of a part of having a great ass sometimes. That's true, that's true. You need the in and the out and the waist.

But yeah, all right, I'll move on. It is funny though when you're like, you're just so obsessed with, for me, like tits is the first thing you're into when you're young. Like ass you appreciate as you're a little older. That's true. But when you're really young, tits are, it's all about, oh my god, tits.

Yeah. And then you hold them and you're like, they're just tits. You know what I mean? But I'm like, you see all these movies and you're like, oh my god, they reveal the tits, we built it up so much. Yeah. But then, same with like fake tits.

You're expecting this amazing thing and you're like, oh, they don't move a lot. Right. They're just kind of hard. They're hard tits, yeah. They're fake tits. I guess they make nicer ones now than, you know. I think tits are like wrestling. Yeah, we know they're fake, but I'm still on board.

And then real wrestling is great too. Nah, real wrestling's not as good. That's true, that's true. Fake is cool. That's a good point. Well, at least it's real. Fake took real, made it better. There you go. There's a storyline. There's a storyline, there's a good point. It's a good point. Well at least it's real. Fake took real made it better. There you go. There's a storyline.

There's a storyline. There's a folding chair. There's a pink tights. I went to wrestling at MSU. It was fun as hell man. Did I tell you that? No, no. Oh with the lady. Yeah. Yeah fun. That's awesome. It's on raw now. It's on Netflix now Do you get into it? Do you go? Yeah, it's fun and the people you see some people around you you're like these people like they fucking need this I like that Yeah, I like that. There's like some hardcore people that are like I don't know I'm with you I this is gonna be a leap, but I think it's a similar to kiddie porn. Yeah for sure where they're both awesome They're both great, but I think They're both great, but I think these guys go to these fucking nerds and psychos go to these shows and they get it out.

They get their evil out, you know? Kitty porn, I'm not saying I approve of it and I'm not saying you should go out and make any, but if it already exists and a guy watches it, maybe he's getting it out. Okay, let's change this. A victimless crime. Maybe anime. I'm sure these wrestlers who gave everything to their life are really happy with the comparison Whatever AI AI version. No one's hurt. Yeah He likes kids anyway, yes, he can hurt in the one you're talking I'll take it further wrestling and that might be better than wrestling because wrestling people get hurt. Yep, people die

And that might be better than wrestling, because wrestling, people get hurt. Yep. People die. Suicide, drugs. It's tough. Yeah, health bills, the health care bills are crazy. Yeah. I mean, how fucked up are wrestlers these days? The still shots are pretty funny though, because he looks like he's just laying down. Yeah, he does.

He's like, hey, you need to lay down for a second, buddy? Yeah. Doesn't look painful. No, but they're all addicted to opioids and steroids. Think about how sore we are just flying. Exactly. We're just flying like a road gig. I'm like, fuck, I'm stiff.

These dudes are doing that and then just jumping off a top rope. They're older than us. Yes. And they're huge men. I mean, just to stay in that kind of shape, and they draw on all kinds of roids and tea and testosterone and ozempic, who the fuck knows? I don't think they're taking those M. Pick yeah

Maybe not maybe they're really fat guys Yeah, but some people want to be a fat wrestler like that's their thing the whole thing yeah like butter bean or whoever Remember Bam Bam Bigelow. Oh yeah, King Kong Bundy. Oh I have three names yeah like school shooters I guess they all had to have three names. Yeah. They're like school shooters. Hahaha. Thomas Matthew Crooks.

Look at this fucking guy. Jesus. That guy's got zero muscle. Yeah, it's not a good look. No. Also, they could have picked a more flattering outfit. I think that was the point. Yeah.

Oh man, look at that. He looks like the fucking sloth from Goonies. Yeah. No neck. Brutal. Yikes. That other guy looks great. Razor Ramon, dude. That guyonies. Yeah, no neck. Brutal. Yikes. That other guy looks great. Razor Ramon, dude, that guy was cool.

Yeah, he's a hunk. Fucking dead, dude. See? Died young. There you go. It'll do. How'd he go? I don't know, he was a drug addict and an alcoholic for years,

and I think DDP got him healthy. Like, Diamond Dallas Page is like an incredible guy and he just gets people He'd had this yoga program where he would let these guys live with him and he just got them sober Well, he saved a lot of lives and that was one of them But I think he did a doc with butter bean where he rehab butter Wow really? No shit. What's he called now margarine bean? His parents shouldn't have named him that. I think the whole thing is a crock.

Country crock. All right. But yeah, Squid Game. It's very good. See, everybody thinks it's murder, it's Asians, there's no diversity. By the way, it is all three of those things. That's true. But it's more, it's got meaning, it's got symbolism,

it's all about capitalism and society and greed and here's the cool thing, I don't give anything away, but in the show, in the show they all have to play these games. Whoever doesn't win the game gets killed. But all the games are kids games that they all grew up playing. So it's kind of like, hey you greedy cunts, go back to your childhood where you were pure and if you can't, you're going to die. And that's the symbolism. It's like, hey you greedy cunts, go back to your childhood where you were pure. And if you can't, you're gonna die. And that's the symbolism. It's like, hey we gotta get out of this rat race and just go back to when we were happy.

You're right. That's interesting. Yeah, I mean, I kinda was like, and they kinda nailed season one. I was kinda like, what are they gonna, also the problem with some of these turnarounds with these big budget shows is like, by the time the second season comes out,

you're like Oh, yeah, I know like what's it been two three years since this shows out But it's such a big production with these sets and the killing and the violin It's all these actors. They have to write for I mean it's a lot of a lot of moving parts This guy's aged like Obama look at that. He doesn't even look the same I think it's a hairpiece, but he's doing he. He won the last season. So he has to go back? Yeah, well he goes back, so he's like, I'm gonna end this fucking thing.

I gotta go into the inside and end it. Interesting. Oh, there he is. Yeah, the hair is all different. Yeah. Yeah, all right. Look, I thought the first one was pretty incredible. I mean, it's worth it just to put on

while you're shaving or jerking it or whatever, because the games are incredible. It's like a Tarantino movie where the dialogue is great and everything but you're really there for the Brad Pitt beating up hippies in Hollywood. Right. God, that was fun. That was a good time. Because that one was a little drawn out more than the rest. You know, Pulp Fiction got some shootouts and some heroin. This one was a little more drawn out but then once Brad Pitt gets in there and then they light the lady on fire in the pool it's great. It's Mikey Madison right?

From Minora. It's a girl from Minora he lit on fire in that. Oh really? Yeah. I gotta see this. Oh we gotta get Sean Baker on here. I think he'd come on right? Simon's our boy maybe he could hook us up. Oh yeah, Florida Project. Dude, this is an awesome movie. It's kind of Uncut Jimsy, I hear. Anora? Yeah, like it's fast paced and tense.

Yeah, and it's kind of funny like that was too, but then also it's, yeah, it's great, I loved it. Yeah, yeah, I'm into her. Anora, not a great name. She's a hooker? Stripper. A stripper, okay. Alright, I'll check it out.

Check it out. Thanks for going with me on my kitty porn idea. Hey, I'm not... If we get AI, we're good. I'll follow you anywhere, buddy. Alright. Next week, two comedians arrested for kiddie porn. Shit! I shouldn't have followed them there.

Follow me anywhere. I'm getting a truck. We're going on to New Orleans next year. It's gonna be fun. My rec is Beast Games. It's tagging on your... Oh! Your kid has got you all up in the Beastmaster. This shit is so good. He is really amazing. Yeah So mr. Beast did a squid games thing with 1,000 contestants vying for five million dollars Holy shit follows the squid games like theme of like they're not killing people Yeah, like you get eliminated over nothing right and it is

Dramatic what let me just let me take a guess at how many views this has. Oh, okay I'm gonna guess the latest episode of this Beast games has 58 million so The first episode was on YouTube as a teaser to get you to watch the restaurant Amazon oh okay one I think has a hundred and fifty one million Jesus thirty seven million I was way off you got kind of trash though

last time we did this right because this one over this one yeah because they were like it's just lacking in creativity no no this is not this one but the other one was a lot more money and effort but the other one was yes he's getting sued for like people are swimming for like emotional damage whoa yeah like you put me through shit that I wasn't really supposed to go through like what like here's the trailer we gotta get him on him on.

I know and he's still going, still ticking. What was he doing rolling down a hill? He tripped, I think. He was doing a gig in the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania and he was walking down the Hampton Inn hill to get to the parking lot and he said. He's a millionaire, why is he saying Hampton Inn? Because I think it was the only hotel in that area.

Yeah. He's gotta be close to a billion. Probably. Well, because he never touched that It was the only hotel in that area Yeah Well cuz he never touched that tonight show money they said and just his car collection alone is gonna be worth a lot Yeah, he and Jerry with the cars. Yeah, they love a fuck about cars a pirate Number two and like the second Austin Looks like number two and like the second Austin. Oh, yeah Look at that another TV show host in blackface He is rough he doesn't drink he's had the same wife since high school I mean, he's like the most straight-edge guy, but he has I think the cars is like I want to get laid But I can't you just fix shit. So you just fix shit and buy cars.

That's my theory. Are you a car guy, Blake? I'm not really. Me neither. I like, I just, I don't know, yeah. I appreciate people who have nice cars, but I just like, I don't know, am I gonna just drive an old car?

Like, I don't know, it just seems inconvenient. Yeah. It is. I have an old car and it's a bitch. What kind of car do you have? I got an old Beamer, a 1973, and it's a cool ass car, it runs great, but it just, in New York, I gotta maintain it, I gotta garage it, it's hell. I do have a 72 Bronco.

Oh, that's great. Can you pull one of those, what they look like up, they look really cool. Which is, it's really fun to drive, but it's also kinda like, every time I hit the gas pedal. I'm like this. It's this is the last drive. Yeah Yeah, yeah, those look awesome. That's a beauty god damn. I know we're just trash and now we're just like that's fucking Can't go wrong with that one. It's funny how OJ happened. Oh look, there's a, wait, how does that work?

Oh, that's the, what's going on here? Why is there a picture of me? I took the Bronco. I was there? Plus Bronco. Oh. Oh, gosh. Oh yeah, there you are. I was looking for yours. OJ happened, the Bronco went away,

and then enough time went by, and we're like, eh, I'll bring the Bronco back. Yeah. Weird. I moved to Brentwood, and I was like, you know what I need? A white Bronco. Yes. I got bring the Bronco back. Yeah. Weird. I moved to Brentwood and I was like, you know what I need? A white Bronco. Yes.

I got a white Bronco. Ha ha ha ha. Fuck it. How long do you play in LA? It was like eight years? Nine years in LA. Yeah, two and a half in Detroit. How does that trade feel?

What was the trade again? It was me for Avery Bradley, Bobon, you know the seven? I love Bobon. Yeah, John Wick. And Tobias Harris, and like a pick or two. Damn though, you're worth more than that though. Thanks man, I appreciate that.

I actually needed to hear that To buy these these players are like Amish people Tobias Harris is a good player. Okay. Lake was I mean still putting up crazy numbers About the Knicks last night, huh? You're on our own fuck You're on a run you had a good. Just the most miserable fans in all of Always always upset all right. I'm thrilled dude upset now. We got Jalen Brunson and cat I love this I love Josh Hart. I know this is the coolest team since the 90s No, it'll be one of the best teams to lose in the second round and do you really think we're gonna lose in the second round? I mean it depends on your matchup, but yeah You're here first. They're all gonna be in the second round? I mean, it depends on your matchup, but yeah. Woo, you heard it here first.

They're all gonna be dead tired. I'm sorry. Well, you're gonna be on Amazon next year with Dirk. Congrats, by the way. But like, don't be another fucking show that just trashes my Knicks. Barkley and Shaq are such haters, man. I'm not gonna, my plan is to not trash the Knicks,

or any team for that matter. You know what I will do? I will go at GMs, I will go at owners, and I will go at coaches to a certain extent. That's fair. Because I'm just tired of, and this is probably the former players being like, I'm just like, I was sick of those guys

just shitting on us every opportunity. The Clippers. Well no, just players in general. I think that's just what the TNT guys do, and that's probably the best sports show maybe of all time. It might be the best show of all, it's insane. It's incredible.

But you and Dirk is, that is an awesome, Dirk is, I love Dirk. I'm excited to hear his like, just like his, we don't hear him like that much, right? Like you don't hear him like, especially since he's retired, you don't hear his like, talk that much, right? Like, you don't hear him like, especially since he's retired, you don't hear his like analysis, but his like, his brain, his basketball IQ is insanely high.

I'm excited to like, hear him give takes. Insights. Yeah. I gotta ask you, cause you said you're not gonna, you're gonna try not to shit on players, like, what do you make of this Shaq versus Dwight Howard beef that just won't die?

I just like, I don't know. So I had this same thing about when LeBron went to Miami, I was just like, you know, and everybody was just shitting on everything he did, right? And it was just kind of like, it kind of sucks because you guys aren't appreciating how good he is. And that was like truly the height of his career, right? Like he was unbelievable in Miami and people were just shitting on him. I was one of the height of his career, right? Like he was unbelievable in Miami

and people were just shitting on him. I was one of the people, I hated him. I mean, I guess I get it to a certain extent, but it's also like, separate what he did to like who he is as a player and just appreciate how good he is. See, I felt like I was doing both of those things. I was like, fuck this guy, but also like,

oh my God, that's incredible, you know? Yeah, which is like, I don't know. I feel like people lost like three, four years of his career where people were just like, they hated him. That's true, I think that's a good point. And it's like, you kinda gotta like, I get that you don't like the guy for like what he did,

but like, also like appreciate how good he is. It's two sides. I still think Bronnie's better. Dude. It's in LeBron. Sleeper. Yeah, exactly. He's asleep for a while.

Yeah. He's gonna get out, he's gonna. He's trying, he's got some hot girlfriends. I don't know if that's gonna hurt. It's never great when that's like the first Oh, man, I want I want to ask you about that FX show Did you watch it the one about the clippers I told I was a I became friendly with Wayne Gretzky He

He thinks that show is the best show that came out on TV And he's like he's like you you gotta watch it, you gotta watch it. So we're out at this golf tournament and he's like, hey, just come here. Oh, put it on. Wait, that's supposed to be Doc Rivers, right? And Ed O'Neill. Oh yeah, that's Doc.

Ed O'Neill is... Donald Sterling. Oh wow. This is like a real, that was like a real clip. Like that was actually the one thing that I watched They're like actually happened that that white party that that Donald Sterling has right? Oh, this looks fun. I haven't even heard of this. Yeah, but Was it bad? Well, so like obviously Ed O'Neill and

Lawrence Fishburne were great. Yeah that, it takes a sharp cut. Cause you gotta cast basketball. Guys who can't play. DeAndre Jordan's character is 6'1". He's like this almost seven foot guy. You're looking at a dude who's just clearly just a very average height guy. It looks well, like big production, like high quality.

Yeah, I honestly, I watched 15 minutes of the first episode with Wayne very average hype guy. It looks well, like big production, like high quality. Yeah, I honestly, I watched 15 minutes of the first episode with Wayne, and I was like, I can't watch that. Wait, Wayne Greske made you watch with him? Made me watch, yeah. By the way, that was his third time watching the show. Jesus.

He's like, you gotta watch this. Well, the thing is, I'm like the target audience for a show like this, and I was like, I don't wanna fucking watch this. I listened to the, there was one podcast I listened to. I think you were on it. Yeah, Ramona Shelburne did it. That was good.

Yeah, yeah. But it's like- So that's how they sold the show. Of course. Because no one will buy anything without IP now, but that's funny that like this show didn't need to be made. No. Well, Winning Time I think did pretty good.

Winning Time was great. Yeah, that was good. But the basketball scenes were still like, you know, but somehow they cast a guy that looked like magic and Kareem. Yeah. Those two guys were amazing. Yeah, and do you see the thing behind the scenes

with how they shot the basketball? Yeah, they were on skates or something. Roller blades and he was like, he's really, I thought winning time. That book is awesome too, that Jeff Pearl book and he was like, he's really, I thought winning time. Yeah. That book is awesome too, that Jeff Pearl book. It's like, it's crazy, I mean, any stories about Pat Riley are fucking, there were rumors

about you going to the Heat for a while. Were you ever like, did you ever want to go to Miami or no? A little, yeah a little bit. Oh wow, look at these unroller blades. Yeah. That's kind of a cool idea. So I think that like, I don't know, I think to be honest, like I'm a tough critic

on sports scripted shows. Yeah. And I thought that it was like, it was better than anything I've seen recently. Yeah. Like basketball was. Oh yeah. I feel the same way about standup movies. Anytime you watch a movie stand up and you're like, ah

That would never happen. No one has lockers in the green room Good shit out there Why are they changing clothes Yeah, just it's a hard thing to write it's hard to write comedians Mm-hmm, cuz it just feels like you're forcing them to like rib on each other too much yeah we also can just hang out and they're all doing blow and hookers and you're like we're all crying and miss Maisel did a pretty good job but that was about it

that was actually pretty good that was pretty good, I mean a funny woman. Yeah, some carried away. What is this, Lord of the Rings? Come on. She's great. No, just kidding. Nikki did great. What, fantasy? What, is this fantasy? Yeah.

Nikki killed it, I assume you hooked up with her. No, no, no. Got a lot of respect for her though. She's a great gal. Great gal, very funny. Yeah, I mean she's just been on a run. Killing it. I mean she's always been, like, roasts,

she's always killed it, and then like, that Tom Brady roast like put her, and now, you know, like, I assume like she's just on the fast track to whatever she wants now. Arenas, I think, she's gonna be doing arenas, she's gonna be huge, I think. I honestly like, I don't see much of her-up, but I see all of her like roast HBO They fucking hide everything max or yeah, she has a ton of stand-up. I think just like six specials or something

I just don't see like, you know, you see like clips of everybody, right? You like all like I just don't see much of her stand up, but I see all of her roast up. It might be geared towards the ladies more, maybe not hitting your algo, because it's a lot of like, so then I swallow the guy's jizz. Yeah, yeah, I'm following. No, I'm looking stuff like that up all the time. Your search history is just full of jizz as well. Wow, 1.7 billion, that's insane.

I heard that their budget for the Tom Brady live roast was like 40 million. That makes sense. And they gotta pay all those players. But like those, the people in the roast don't get paid that much. No, that's true. The mom got paid a lot, but then they blew it out

for like marketing for, you know, I assume that doing live stuff on Netflix is insanely expensive. What do you think the budget for the one I paid a lot, but then they blew it out for marketing. I assume that doing live stuff on Netflix is insanely expensive. What do you think the budget for the one we just did was 500? Oh, easily. 500 down? That was rough. Bad.

Was that Jeff Ross' thing? Yes. End of the year thing. Yeah. He directed it pretty much. He was high the whole time. It was a mess. But yeah, it's hard to roast people who aren't in the room. He was directed it pretty much. He was high the whole time. It was it was a mess

But yeah, it's hard to roast people who aren't in the room So we just focus on like Diddy and Luigi because we're like, yeah You got to pick people in prison if you're not gonna if they're not here, right? What are we gonna do roast machine gun Kelly? Don't give a shit. Yeah punch down people can't who can't say anything back It did feel like the Taylor Swift jokes got a little like alright from the audience like hey that's our girl yeah. He had a bunch written and we were working them out and they were not working people were like what the fuck really Taylor Swift and it is hard to segue Diddy to T-Swift though. In their defense I was like that we could have worked on that. Both have

screaming girls at their parties. That was one that we cut What was it? I had another one like yeah? She she crossed more better she broke more barriers than a girl from Oklahoma trying to get an out-of-state abortion We'd a bunch of t-swift ones that didn't make the cut yeah, how much do they cut a good amount? I'm out like how many minutes did you guys do we probably did 11 11? Seven yeah, so not bad not bad better than most do you get tapped to do a lot of comedy stuff? Good amount. Good amount. Like how many minutes did you guys do? We probably did 11. 11, probably like seven or something? Yeah, so not bad. Not bad. Better than most.

Do you get tapped to do a lot of comedy stuff? Cause you did like Broad City. Oh yeah. You're good in comedy. I also, I just love, I love comedy. Love it. I will always like, you know, do any, I just, I watch insanely like

Random comedies. Oh, give us them. What do you watch? I mean like I follow like stand-up like a lot and like my whole algorithm is probably like every every Fourth video is just like a random comedian. Hey, let's go down the rabbit hole and and and I don't know I just I love the rabbit hole and and and I don't know I just I love What are the other three things in the algorithm? Uh... Sports? Fantasy football? Huge titties!

You go to my explore page it's just twerking tits and Norm McDonald Should we just take a gander? Oh Norm Norm is just all over my for you page. The king, yeah, but you did my show at New York Comedy Club, I don't know, 2019? That was 2019, yeah. Yeah, that was fun to watch. That was, yeah, I was going to Just For Laughs right after that, so I was trying to work out

some stuff for it. Surprisingly great delivery. You had timing and you could tell you worked it out. That means a lot. Yeah, it was good. And not to mention, it's a bunch of fat bearded, dopey guys and then you show up and it's a comic. I think that said, I was really leaning into,

I get it, I understand. Right. It's so weird that I'm here right now. Also, the fact that somebody would be like, and now up to the stage, Blake Griffin, and people people clap. I'm like, why are you clapping? Like I could be horrible. That's going to an NBA game and like they're like, all right now starting at center Kevin Hart You should clap for that right I got screwed Pat Oswald everybody Kevin Hart beat Draymond in a shooting competition Oswald everybody Kevin Hart beat Draymond in a shooting competition

They did that all-star all-star Draymond's I mean what yeah Kevin Hart's not bad. That's embarrassed. I mean look I don't want to see him in an actual I did the charity game at MSG this year, dude I got to give you guys credit walking going up and down the court is fucking I had like retired NBA players being like dude Pick it up on Tim Thomas was like dude get back and I was like, I'm sorry didn't play in the mall Crawford boy, man Dude, he was on our team. He carried us. Oh, he's still incredible. He's insane. He's incredible And he also I mean my mom wanted to come so she's like sitting, you know, she's a court side I'm just like playing horribly in front of my mother, but Jamal Crawford's doing like spinning three's

and she was like, this guy's incredible. I'm like, it's Jamal Crawford. Right. I mean, Jamal, I was talking about this with my brother. He has to have the, his last game of his career scored 51. I know. Jesus. Like he was 39. Kobe did 60. Well, yeah. Oh yeah, okay, so yes. But yeah. For last games of his career scored 51. I know. Jesus. Like he was 39. Kobe did 60.

Oh yeah, oh yeah, okay, so yes. For last games of your career. Dude, Jamal, I was such a fan of his, and I mean you play with him for that whole time, right? That's crazy. He's awesome. He's calling Knicks games and he's doing such a good job. Like none of us wanna see Walt Frazier go,

but you know, cause we love him, but like if eventually he will, and it's like we're spoiled with him and Alan Hahn, who are both great. Well, I mean, you guys have Walt Frazier and Breen. Like just like that's like an unreal regional or a team specific like broad, like insane. It's unreal.

I've gotten Mark in basketball in the last couple years and I have to explain Walt Frazier to him, how cool, like the outfits. Where are you really, how does he keep coming up with this stuff? It's not embarrassing, can I play some of your highlights for Mark? Sure.

Okay. Oh shit. Oh my God. He was a stud down real quick. Dude. He was a good player. You talk about, you talk about,

oh wow, a couple of defensive highlights. I don't really get that What was it really known for? damn, dude, oh This is that's on my Knicks. I remember that Timothée. I watched that in a bar Wow, and you were like super young here, right? That was my rookie year. Yeah, ah Cuz I remember I remember being like who the fuck is this guy? That game right there is like the game that I always kind of like to help.

My life completely changed after that game. Wow. How'd it change? It just went, you know, you play in college, you get drafted, you start playing, you think you're like, all right, people, the basketball world knows who you are, and then that game was just like,

it just went through the roof. You're just walking around, people would just come up to me talking about that dunk or that game, and it was like, by the way, it kinda goes unnoticed, but I think Amari had like 47 on me that game, and I could do nothing with him. That was when he was just on a tear.

I loved him, dude. So I remember that game, because I remember you had another spinning dunk that game, and Amari cut to Amari at the free throw line, like his way of being like, oh shit, this kid's awesome. Yeah. Damn. But he was also just, I mean, he dunked on me something vicious. I'm Ari was so good that year

Oh, dude. He was I loved him. He was he was that's Jewish basketball player I think our next best is Dolph Shays Yeah, I think our next best is Dolph Shays We got to armory caspie. Oh, yeah, he's good Jordan farm our Jew Jordan Our first team Jew is not as bad as you think it would be Dave Chappelle's the coolest Muslim what I just realized is you know Denny odd via oh yeah He's he's from Israel not Jewish Yeah, I just learned, oh, by the way, I should probably preface this with the person

I heard this from is a complete idiot, so I don't know if I can trust him. Okay. He's under Jewish players. Yeah. Maybe it's a... Maybe he converted out. The Gaza shit, he flew the coupon.

Wait, hold on, Amari Bailey, how is he Jewish? Is he Jewish? We're just adding people at this point. Stoudemire? I don't think anybody's gonna notice, just throw him in. Kevin Garnett, wait a second. Oh, you got a lady in there. Who is that?

Camila. A lady and a Jew? This could be tough. That's a, oh, Blake Peters, a fellow Blake. Hey. That's a short list. Yeah. What's that joke, an airplane?

Here, I need some light reading. Well here's a pamphlet on Jewish athletes. You know what was cool for me watching you back in those days was I thought you were full white. So I was like, holy shit, we got one. Here we go. Nope. And then?

A little bit of a facade. Yeah. It was exciting for a while. Sort of a chameleon that way. Just kind of blends in. Everyone's claiming you. Yeah. That's kind of cool.

I always, I had a joke in standup. I was like, I'm like undercover boss, but only for finding out who's racist. Right. Especially on airplanes, people were like, hey brother, how you doing? Oh yeah. You get to talk and they're like, yeah, I mean, you know, she's fucking, you know,

they're taking over. And you're like, oh, he doesn't realize that I'm half black. Right. That's all. Have you had an in bomb? Where they didn't know? Yeah, oh geez well, I don't yeah from a white guy. I mean I've had plenty in box

Mark used to have a great joke about when someone's Racist to you. It's like a weird feeling cuz you're like well this is fucked up, but I can't believe how much you trust me Yes, that's true It is it is nice it's kind of comforting but also you know when like when when a black dude calls you calls you inward for the first time you're like oh yeah one of my first time. That's true. That is nice. I love that, the Chappelle show sketch where he did the black white supremacist. Yes. And he calls the kids the N-word and they all high five.

Right. Yeah. I think that might have been Bill Burr. Bill Burr. I think he was in the car, the convertible. Maybe. Yes, it was. Really? Yes, that's Bill Burr. I think he was in the car the convertible. Maybe it was really that's bill burr He was in a time he was in the race racer. Oh, yeah. Yeah What'd he say? He's like

so-and-so white again and So good over was in a day he's in a decent with hair I think that was a Neil Brennan joint, the Clayton Bigsby. He's your buddy, right? Yeah, I met Neil, fuck, I think it was 2011, ESPYs, he was writing for Seth Meyers. And I met him doing a sketch, and then after that,

he kind of became my mentor. Like he just kinda like took me under his wing. He was like the one person that was like, you gotta start writing stuff, like start, just write jokes. And so he convinced me to kinda like keep a notes folder of jokes and I had nothing to do with it forever. And then I decided to do some stand up,

which was like an insane idea. Yeah terrifying Terrifying well you took it easier. Oh, yeah, it does get easier You still can't ever crack it a hundred percent, but it does get easier But also and you but you still bomb like I I get a bomb all the time cuz I'm trying new shit Which they're like oh my god still I just three the I did new joke night the seller last night And I just watched Louie bomb. Yeah. Like a hard, but we all bombed.

I mean, it was like, they were a tough crowd, and if you're doing new shit, you're gonna bomb, but it's like, man, what a privilege to get to watch Louie eat shit. I know. One of the best minds ever, and some of them were hilarious, but they're just, they'll be great in like a week or two.

They're not ready yet. Yeah. How often are you guys going up? Like, this week, how many times will you go up? I did two last night, I got three tonight. Wow. I think three last night, two tonight for me. I'm up every night this week,

but yeah, I'm in riding mode because I'm going hard on tour next month. Doing new, yeah. So I just got, I mean, I'm starting like a 50 city tour, so it's gotta be new and good. And are you like, are you like, I thought of this on the walk over or the car ride. Sure, yeah.

I'm just gonna, I'll just, I'll do it. Definitely. Yeah. And sometimes that does better than the shit you worked on for six hours. I saw you on Norm's show back in the day too. What? It was you and DeAndre. Yeah, yeah.

Is DeAndre a funny guy? Yeah, he's hilarious. He seems like a cool dude. DeAndre was like the guy who like, is like so, he just, it's like effortless for him to like walk into a room and like make these people feel like, he's like connected with them and make a joke

and then walk into like a completely different demographic of a room and like walk into a completely different demographic of a room and fit in there. He was the guy that kept us all together, kept things light. He's very, very funny. Is this a clip? Oh, this is a great clip.

Yeah. Oh, this went viral. Oh, yeah. Is this a really good question, Norm? You're already into it. Yeah. This is a question from Blake's good friend norm Blake it's fun watching this year. What are cool?

And I was wondering like there's a kind of a curse with rookie of the year. Nobody's ever repeated it That's cute. I'll try as hard as I can next year. I don't know. I don't know. Thank you for that question. That's great. He just showed up to, that was my rookie of the year press conference when I got the award. He just showed up.

Wow. No one was like, hey, Norm's coming. He just showed up and just sat in the audience and just raced. They're like, does anybody have any questions? And he's just like, boom, first one. showed up and just sat in the audience and just raised his hand. They're like, does anybody have any questions? And he's just like, boom, first one. Did you see him ahead of time? I don't even think I did.

Wow, that's crazy. Because I had no, I didn't realize. Maybe I saw him from a distance, like before everybody sat down. But yeah. Were you a big Norm guy? Huge. I mean, he's like one of my all time favorites. Yeah, same.

He is, you know what's crazy, I just heard, you know that moth joke that he told? Yes. I just heard, was it Colin Quinn? Yes! I told him the joke and it was just, it's a very short. It's like 30 seconds. Yeah, and he made it into a 10 minute joke.

Yeah. It was eight minutes, whatever. Cause Conan was like, oh we gotta stretch a little bit, somebody didn't come it into a 10 minute joke. Yeah, it was eight minutes whatever. Cuz Kona was like, oh we got to stretch a little bit. Somebody didn't come, so a guest didn't show up. So he's like, I got it. And he just pulled that shit like five, six minutes. I can't imagine trying to just turn a 30 second joke into eight minutes of it. And it was all funny. I know, it's funny. I mean, I guess yeah, some of you're just like what the what's happening? Yeah, he's a cook Speaking of Neil Brennan. He's the one who remember when he takes when Clayton Bigsby takes his hood off Yeah, Neil's face is the one that blows up. Do you remember?

Yeah, yeah, can you get to that? I forgot about that I Didn't realize Maybe that wasn't bill burr imagine going out for that cast. No, but it's a white dude. Wilbur is in this okay in this sketch Yeah You you wanna see my face? Oh Right In this sketch. Yeah You you wanna see my face? Oh This was a pilot Young Brennan That's a crime imagine putting this in the pilot I mean this is like ballsy that was funny sketch Yeah, yeah, I watched this in college with like 18 friends. It was huge dude so this came out when I was

In high school and it was like one of those shows that like if you didn't it was come it came out on Wednesday nights If you didn't watch that yep Thursday you were left out of the conversation. Tell everybody was just repeating and and quoting That show yeah, Ashie Larry when Wayne Brady said the n-word Charlie Murphy Paul Mooney. Oh, yeah, I mean that was That was a fun show, man. We were watching it last time on the tour bus and we were like all these sketches

hold up player haters ball. They all hold up. Oh Prince. Prince, oh my god that one was incredible. Even the ones that they said didn't work out as well. Remember when they had the player haters ball where they time traveled? I don't remember that one.

And they ended up turning it into like a, I think they were doing sketches that didn't work out. Even those were just like incredible. Yeah, it was such a loose show too. There was one scene where Chappelle, he talks up front and then a girl's tit pops out. Oh yeah. And they did a whole thing on that.

It was like a blooper. He's like, come on, titty, come on, titty. What are your all time comedy? If you were on the road as a player and you need like a comfort Watch before bed. What were you thrown on? Kind of depends like I mean, I love the office. I love Arrested Development. I love like Yeah, I could just kind of go down. I've always been a huge SNL fan Even like I was like just powering through like the bad years.

Just like I'd watch every episode and just like hope that like there was a good sketch. I mean I think this season is as good as it's been. It's cooking right now. Were you ever on the short list to host? It's really hard for a basketball player because you basically have to host the first episode of the year

and that's always reserved. LeBron did, I think, the first episode. Oh yeah. And that's, you know. You made for it though, man. I know, right? I love SNL. Love Spanish comedy.

If you listen, we've had SNL people on the list. Fucking Blake Griffin, man. Yeah, come on, guys. Lorne, what's going on with you? Now you can do it. Amazon, right? You got something to promote? Ah!

Yeah. That's true. Come on, guys. What the hell? We got some good ideas. Besides you, who's a really funny NBA player? All right, so there's tears, right? There's the guys who aren't trying to be funny

that are funny. Like Kawhi? Yeah, I mean like Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would say like everybody's everybody had that run of like man Kawaii hilarious, and it's kind of like you're like is he though? Pull up a clip of kawaii's laughing. I mean he's like awkward funny, right? Yeah, I mean yeah, and I honestly don't know him Personally really well. I mean, I love, I freaking love his game.

Hey, what would you like people to know about you? This is great. Have you seen this? Mm-mm. Oh, man. I'm a fun guy. Obviously, I love the game of basketball. I mean, it's just more question you have to ask me

in order for me to tell you about myself I just can't give you a whole spill One of the best one of the most talented players yeah I mean, he's insane. I mean I've heard like from his've heard from his teammates, he's fun and funny and loose. But like, that's- But it's awkward. Yeah, mota, autistics are great. Yeah.

Yeah. Who else is funny? You know who's really funny? Jamal Crawford is hilarious. He speaks in like, he always has these sayings where he's like, mm, he goes, mm, fam. Did you talk to him at all when you were playing? Yeah, a little bit.

He probably didn't give you the whole, but he's like, mm, fam. You know what, there's lines on the highway for a reason so everybody doesn't go, and he just says stuff and he's like, how did you come up with that? He just has all these kind of old man sayings and he always starts like, mm, fam.

He's got a catchphrase. Dude, he's hilarious. It's hard to beat Barkley as a funny guy. Barkley is- So funny. He's just so good. I was at a golf event and he was there, and we would go, excuse me, sit at the bar at night,

and he would like, he just like, entertains. And people come up to him and he's so good with people. Like, he's just like, hey yeah, bro. And he makes people feel special and he goes back to his thing. It's like, it's like a true talent. Yeah. It's like, it's truly incredible,

like how good he is with people. And how funny he is. That show is special. Oh, it's insane. I mean, Ernie is one of the great hosts at anything. That's another skill too, to put everyone at ease. So at this golf thing, TNT was putting it on and I got to be on the desk.

When Chuck was out playing, I kind of filled in for him. And that was with Nate too, right? Yeah, yeah, I was playing with Nate. And watching Ernie navigate just the dull moments and just bring people in and ask a question and throw it to this and read a sponsorship, it was insane. Wow, damn.

He's so good at it. It's such a special skill that I don't think people realize how good he is That it yeah. Yeah. Well Shaq is funny, but he wants to be funny So to me that takes him out of it a little bit whereas Barclays seems funny naturally. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I Agree and Jack's just like just shitting on guys I kind of feel bad for Dwight Howard. Yeah Feelings are like leave him alone Dude he's actually a nice guy

He'd know the candle to me That's funny, but also like God when a dude who like Has all the accolade Shaq has is just shitting on people who have so many less. Right. Probably the most, I mean, he's the most dominant player of all time. I think so, yeah. And then Dwight was a great player.

Dwight was unbelievable. Yeah. Dwight used to, the first time I really got my bell rung hard, Dwight Howard went up and goal tended one of my shots and came down and he used to like when he would like jump and come down I don't know if he was doing on purpose, but he would just he would just let his elbows just fly And I took a Dwight Howard elbow like to the temple and I remember like just kind of like going back and it was the first Time I saw like actual stars. Oh, yeah, and I was kind of like Whoa going back and it was the first time I saw actual stars. Oh yeah. And I was kinda like, whoa. I was just completely taken aback.

He was so strong. It was like, it made you feel like a little kid. Oh jeez. Like where you're just kinda like a little bit helpless. Yeah. Like he could pick you up and my feet would just be dangling. Like no, put me down. Yeah.

It was nuts playing against him in his prime. What about the craziest game of the last 10 years? Jimmy Kimmel versus Ted Cruz. Did you guys see that? You didn't see this? Both of them are rough, but Kimmel really gets lit up here. It's unfortunate. He grew up in Brooklyn, he played ball.

Who did? Kimmel. Oh really? Ted Cruz? Yeah. Ted Cruz. Mixing it up with the Brooklyn's? Yeah. Ted Cruz used to rock on West Forth.

Right. What was this for? Jimmy Kimmel shit on him on his show and Ted Cruz is like, well I'm in better shape than you. And then they went back and forth and they were like, let's do a game. And Cruz won That's embarrassing. I know I mean, but this is not good. I mean look I played with the Rizler and even I can say this is bad

basketball I mean that was Wheelchair basketball has more action than this man Wheelchair basketball has more action than this Cruz has got kind of a comfort Did they do it in Texas? Oh yeah It looks like it

There's no way Ted Cruz had that many fans This is a home game Oh man, poor Isaiah Thomas has to watch this Oh man What, any good drinking stories with players like even off night in the City, and you're like, we're getting lit up? Yeah, yeah.

Trying to think of, okay, what can I say? Come on, PR, come on. Oh yeah. Come on. You don't have to name names. No, no. Britney Spears. God, I'm trying to think.

So me, Britney Griner, and. Crazy night in Moscow. We're on our way to Russia. Things took a turn after that. It was actually my hashish oil. Yeah. Just tucked it away in her bag. Took the fall.

Can you imagine seeing her in a Russian prison as a woman? That would have just been a sight Yeah, I can't imagine Yeah, that was what a time. I know that was dark then we traded her for an arms dealer. Yeah The merchant of death that's it Quite possibly one of the coolest nicknames of all time. I know if it wasn't for him, you know, yeah. Yeah, it's up there being a What why could she stop listening yeah, yeah, it's on YouTube Wait really good form. Yeah, oh boy anyone else hard

I thought she was she had a relationship with no she's mark. I'm not saying I have the best gaydar, but That is a lesbian right there. Oh got it Wnba is having a moment though. I feel like I mean you know I mean Caitlin Clark is she's awesome. She's unbelievable It's pretty cool. It's also like, it's just kinda crazy to watch her come in and it was like the thing that the WNBA has been waiting for.

Yeah. Like there's great players in the WNBA, but she's been like, she is, she's like transcended basketball. Yeah. And then everybody was just like, well, we didn't want it like this. Nah.

You know what, we wanted to be it like this. No. No. You know what, we wanted to be in the spotlight, but hold on. Right. It was just kind of like, why aren't you guys just lifting her up? That's what I'm saying. Yeah.

I don't know. It's awkward. I know she's a white lady, but it's like Tiger Woods. You never see a white person in basketball doing this well. Especially a lady. I mean, he's, what is he, Ty? Ty in black? Ty in black.

Yeah. Is he Ty? Yeah. You didn't see the racial draft? I think he's Ty. I've always wanted to say this, for schizel. So good. Woo.

Yeah, I mean, she is, holy shit. Yeah. When someone's doing that, do you ever reach out, like, oh, you're killing it or something? Do you ever send a message? I feel like people, it doesn't really hit the same way when you're retired. No, come on.

I don't know, I mean. You're gonna make the Hall of Fame. I hope so. You're going to. We'll see. I think you're in. Rock and roll? But after the Ramones this guy's

No, I think you're making it dude. I don't know. We'll see it's not one of those things I truly don't like think about it very much and like if it happens, that's awesome But if it doesn't I'm not like I'm not you know, if you need some guys to look at your speech Don't a joke if I do that speech will just be it will just be If you need some guys to look at your speech, don't a joke, we're at the honor. If I do, that speech will just be, it will just be riddled with just, probably the worst jokes you ever heard,

but it's just gonna be a set. Yeah. Do a set, man. It's like, you know, what am I gonna, basketball gave me everything. I don't wanna do that. I don't wanna do that, you know? Michael Jordan's speech? Oh yeah, he just, just. Heared it out. Yeah, it's just. Gave me everything Oh, yeah, he just Yeah, it's just that's like that shak shit. What's like dude you reach the mountaintop and you won. Why are you so angry never enough?

He's calling out like people players that people forgot about Just like deadlift shrimp. I remember what you said He's like, debt lift shrimp, I remember what you said. But like, I mean, that's also like, those guys can't turn it off. That's what made him so good. Have you met MJ? Oh yeah. And what's that like?

He's awesome. He's just the coolest, like he's just a guys guy. He's just, I mean, I was a Jordan athlete for years. And he's just, he's probably one of the coolest people. That's what like adds to his like goat thing. Yeah. Is he's just, he's probably one of the coolest people. That's what like adds to his like goat thing. Yeah. Is he's just awesome. Yep.

You don't see him in clips where you're like, nah, it was corny. Yeah, it's true. You know what I mean? You'll be like, oh, god, he really kind of went at those people, you know, like that. But like, you're never like, yeah, I was, he's just awesome.

I mean, in the last dance when he's playing quarters, so they're like, hey, you gotta go on. Like throwing quarters. Spoken like a true stand-up, you gotta go on. Yeah. That's a good point. Like your set's up in five minutes. Michael, they're calling your name.

But yeah, he was an animal with the gambling. He is awesome. For years, my Michael Jordan story that I would always tell was the Dennis Rodman story that he told in The Last Dance where he went to Vegas. It was always my go-to, what's a Michael Jordan story? And he told that on Last Dance and now I don't have a good story.

Ah, damn. It was always like my like, ah you wanna hear something cool? I told that story and then he told it. I was like, fuck, I got nothing now. What was it like, I mean, we see he's got the Kobe pick up. What was it like being in LA at the same time as Kobe? And having to, I mean you guys were the team.

It's weird to be the Clippers, but you guys were the team. Yeah, I mean you'll never take LA away from the Lakers. Or the Lakers, or whatever, you guys get it. But yeah, there was a good stretch of the Lakers kinda being pretty down, and him getting hurt and stuff. But dude, Kobe was... In LA, he's God. Yeah. He's untouchable it was like

truly like like I don't know how to describe it like he like the first time I actually met him I was doing rehab my my first year I got her I was doing rehab and the lady was doing my rehab was his PT. And so I'm sitting there in the PT clinic, and I remember just sitting there, I had like, you do ice and heat to start, and I'm sitting there, and I kinda look up, and the energy in the room shifted.

I'm not a big, the energy has changed. And I was just like, what's going on? Everybody got a little quiet, and I look over and Kobe's like standing at the door and I was just like oh This is like this is this is different. Yeah, like he just like Everywhere he went it was just like it was it was so Honestly, it was like seeing God sure It was nuts. Yeah, he was a God. I mean, I would do a theater in LA,

and I'd be doing great, and then I would do one Kobe joke, and they would boo me. Yeah. So I just couldn't, even with all that momentum. In their defense, the joke was about his death. Well, that's true.

It was about a helicopter. But yeah. But I really had him in the palm of my hand, and then gone. Can I ask you, oh sorry. No, no, go ahead. Can I ask you a weird racial question? Oh yeah, dude I've been waiting for this.

All right, all right. So you're what, half and half? Yeah. Okay, I don't know what the term is, mulatto, but. You gotta write the first time, I think the second's bad. Do you find that in the throws of it, do you kind of go, like if you're in an interview, do you white it up and then if you're in the locker room, do you black it go, like if you're in an interview, do you white it up,

and then if you're in the locker room, do you black it up? Yeah, I think the term now, what the kids are saying is code switching. Yes, that's it. Yeah, I definitely, yeah. Go adapt. I'm doing Mello's podcast right after this. Oh!

By the way, if you wanna see a stark contrast, that's gonna be me with glasses on, I'm gonna have a chain on, I'm gonna be me with glasses on and I have a chain on. I'm like, yeah, yeah, Kobe was dope as fuck. Here I'm like, dude, it's like seeing Jesus. Oh my God. Yeah, I don't know. You kind of like, you know,

wherever you're around, it's natural. Yeah, I don't know. For me, it's like, it was kind of natural. Now there's a term for it, co-switching, but. Thank God for the term, so I don't have to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, you're't know for me. It's like it was kind of kind of natural now There's a term for it code switching, but thank God for the term so I don't have to yeah, no you're still racist No, we had Richard Jefferson on here, and I think that was the first time he mentioned the code switching thing I think he might have asked him the same question is he mixed no Yeah, he's a pretty funny guy. Yeah, he's great. I think he's a cool, that was a great app.

Great, he drank a bottle of scotch alone. Oh dude, he showed up to the cellar that night and he left his wallet here. So I was like, he was, he bought a bottle of Lagervullen and I was like, oh I guess we're finishing this bottle. Yeah, he went in. That's pretty awesome. That was pretty cool.

You recorded where? I was here. Oh here, wow. He was great, man. Yeah, I imagine this is probably the earliest episode you've ever recorded where? I was here. Oh here. Yeah. He was great, man. Yeah, I imagine this is probably the earliest episode you've ever recorded. I think it is, we mentioned that.

But we're happy to get you in, man. Yeah, I wanna ask you a couple more things. I know you got a heart out, but any, like, what was your favorite team to be a part of? I'm guessing it's the clips that, but that team always seemed like there was like a dysfunction to it. See, that was kinda like the thing

that was like in the media. Exactly, yeah. Like we, I was actually, I was talking to JJ Bredek about this like not that long ago, like a month ago, and it was like we were close. Yeah. Like we all, we liked each other,

we like enjoyed spending time. It's just like years of losing in the playoffs kind of eats at you and then the spotlight and people just trying to tear you apart, it takes its toll. So you weren't as bad as they made you? No, no. People try to make it seem like we hated each other,

we had bad kids. It was one of my all-time favorite teams. Like those years, we had it down, we just never won. It was a sick team. That's like a, looking back, that's like a pretty crazy starting line. I mean, CP, JJ, DeAndre Jordan, Jamal Crawford. Barnes was a great defender, you know, yeah.

We had unreal, and there was a great defender, you know, yeah. We had Unreal, I mean, and there was a stretch too where we had like Lamar Odom, Grant Hill, like we had Chauncey Billups, we had like insane names. And it was like, it was a fun run. Yeah. It's gotta be bittersweet to be on a team with great players, cause you're like, this is awesome, we're gonna win maybe,

but also I gotta step it up. I mean, honestly, yeah, but it's great, because it raises your, you know, you have to be great. Yeah. Because otherwise you feel like you're letting people down. Exactly. I mean, the Sterling thing, I'm sure you've talked about this to death,

but like, I remember that happened during the playoffs. Like, that's when you got, the tape was leaked. That's insane that you're in the playoffs. Did you feel like that really brought you guys together where you were like, all right, we're playing for something. Yeah, it was like an emotional, it was an emotional drain. So we were playing Golden State.

We lose game one at home, win game two, go to Golden State, win game three. So now it's two one. And Friday night we get a text like, hey, not emergency meeting, but it was a random meeting. So we go downstairs and Doc is like, we got word that something's coming out tomorrow about Donald Sterling, they got something,

whatever, business as usual, and we're like, all right, all good. I wake up Saturday morning, and I think it came out at like eight o'clock East Coast time. So I wake up eight o'clock West Coast time, I have like 174 texts. Shit. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on?

And Reverend Jesse Jackson had texted me, like you guys gotta boycott. And we're just like, all these people were calling for us to boycott and we're like, we just went the whole season to get to this point. Like, why would we boycott now? Yeah. It's not like we're lining up and being like,

all right, Donald Sterling on three. We're playing for ourselves, we're playing for our families, fans. And we went out and we lost game four, went back home, won game five, went back to Golden State, won game six, then we won an emotional game seven. And then, who did we play?

Oh, Oklahoma City. That was like KD, right? KD's MVP year. Went to Oklahoma City one game one. Lost game two, and then we were like up seven with like 40-something seconds to play in game five in Oklahoma City. And like just complete meltdown.

But it was just like, we were like emotionally drained from that, like that Donald Sterling thing was like insane. Never heard Staples Center louder than game five when we came back home. Fans were there 45 minutes before a tip-off. We ran out of the tunnel. They had blacked out all the logos everybody was wearing black Which is kind of funny now

Sterling was wearing it on his face Racist Donald Sterling or just your average fan in Boston I got a sweet. I got a soft spot for by Obviously I've taped my last special there. I love Boston. I just have to throw shade at them. Yeah, I'm a Knicks fan Yeah, it's a yeah, they're Yeah, you guys have a great team by the way the net you give me some positivity I mean like I really do you really think of their second round exit team because I think It was on their matchup

I think the only team that is definitively better than us right now in the East is the Celtics. But like, you know. The Orlando Magic with everybody hurt, they're better. I'd be honest though, they scare me. Because they play, that coach is really good. Oh, he's great. And dude, the Wagner bros, that sucks Mo is out this season, but like, Franz Wagner's incredible.

He's nasty. He's, Boncero's incredible. Suggs is incredible. It sucks all these injuries they have, but that team actually is like a playoff nightmare because of how they, losing Hardenstein ripped my fucking heart out. Because of how he played, man.

I loved him. Losing Dante really hurt. Randall, I've made peace with losing him. I was a Randall supporter until the end. We support ours here in New York, but like, Kat is ridiculous. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, you guys have a lot of talent.

I just, you know what's gonna happen probably in the playoffs? Like, they're all gonna be dead tired. Cause of Tibbs? Yeah, they're just gonna be tired. And he's a great coach. They're just gonna be fucking tired. We just need some depth,

and then we're okay if we get some depth this time. Yeah, my buddy last night was like, we statistically have the best, we have the highest scoring starting five of all time. And my brother Taylor was like, and how's their bench? And he was like, God awful. It's like, yeah, it's like sweet.

But if we get a bench, I think, if we get a couple guys. So what are you gonna do to get that? Trades, it's like sweet. But if we get a bench, I think, if we get a couple guys. So what are you gonna do to get that? Trades, we still got picks. So who are you gonna trade? We'll figure it out. We get Mitchell Robinson back, you know. Bring up TJ Warren from the G League.

Do you think he could still play? He's only 31. I haven't seen him play in a couple years, so I don't know, but he's talented, yeah. He's talented, and then we get, you know, I think we bring up Tyler Kolek, give him some more minutes. I know he's a rookie years so I don't know but he's talented. He's talented and then we get you know I think we bring up Tyler Kolek give him some more minutes I know he's a rookie but I like it. We're getting real deep right here. I know. Healthy Deuce makes a big difference that guy I love Deuce McBride. Yeah. Look the Celtics were only a starting five for a minute too it took

them a second to figure out the bench I think just give us a minute We didn't know Peyton Pritchard was gonna be this good. We didn't know Really? He's well, I didn't know my first he looks like a Rick and Morty character I don't think he'd be torching everybody pull up a picture of this guy. He's incredible Peyton Pritchard he my first like week in Boston after Practice though you want to play you want to play ones like it was one-on-one at the end of practice, you know And one-on-one in the NBA is like you get two dribbles and like it's very control you're from a certain spot. Mm-hmm

It's like Peyton gets the pain gets the ball and like I'm up on defense and he's just like And just I was like, you know what? I'm good. I Don't need this. I don't need, he's so good. This kid like, works so hard, like just the hardest note. Like he's one of those guys where you watch him play and you're like, oh, he's got like that thing. But I didn't know that, like I didn't see this for him. He's surpassed what I thought he was gonna be, he's incredible. Do you thought he was gonna be is incredible

Do you think they're gonna win it all again, or do you think okay see if they stay healthy? I think they're they're they're the By far the favorites. This is who sterling wants hanging out with his Sterling's dream right exactly just paid and Pritchard starting at all five positions Working on any bits I'm like always writing stuff down Anything noodling in the head some of you dying to try out not really I mean this is this is not gonna go well We do it with each other and it's always

So I have this like notes folder that I've had since probably 2000 I mean it's it goes on and on and on it's just some of it's like I've worked it out Some of it I've worked out and some of it's just like they might just like I you go back and read it You're like what the fuck was I thinking of course so dumb See if I have one too. Just to make it feel less weird. Cause I got the same notes. Oh yeah, here's a good example of things that aren't funny.

But it was just like a thing in my head. And I don't know where I'll ever use it. This isn't for stand up, but like... So what I wrote down was Jamaican man named Jafriyap and last name Steen. It's like Jafriap and last name Steen. It's like Jafriap Steen. No, no, no, from the islands, Jafriap Steen. That's funny.

So like I don't know how I'm ever gonna use that. I think it's a character in a script. Yeah, that's what it is. You gotta make that guy, yeah. That's a good example of like just like shit, where if you read this notes folder, you'd be like that's the stupidest, like there's all dumb ideas.

You gotta laugh from this whole room with that. That'sest like that's all dumb. Yeah, that's clever They're Jeff reps Big ups to Jeff Yeah, it's like stuff like that words like it might not ever How about this one my idea for an abortion clinic name, don't kid yourself. That's pretty good. I'll tweet it. That's a good tweet.

That couldn't go in my act, but it's a tweet. Or like I have like what I need to work out is like substitutions and timeouts at regular jobs, not just sports. So it's like the idea is good, but I don't have any jokes for it. That could be a sketch, I think. Where it's just like time, like this is about,

and a lot of my standup is like, early on I tried to like shy away from writing sports stuff because I was like, that's hacky, I don't wanna, I wanna like write real jokes. And I saw this Seth Rogan interview one time, where, you know, he was doing standup when he was like 13. And he talks about how he came off stage one time, he was like, I went out and I did okay.

And he's like this older comedian, established comedian in Canada, was like, how old are you? And he's like 13. He's like, well, write about 13 year old shit. And I saw that and I was like, you know what? I should write sports stuff. You know? It's like the one thing I know and it's more authentic.

And it's interesting. And it sets you apart. Yeah, so I like I always had like so I I always had this like thought it's honestly probably in my notes folder way back, but it was like You know when like I would like walk down the street and people would be in LA and people be like from across the street Be like go Lakers and I was just like how how insane is that? Like I don't see my UPS guy and be like, go FedEx. Why are you yelling that at me?

I don't care who you cheer for. It'd be insane to think that everybody has to be a fan of the team that I'm on. When I see him, I go, Hamas. Don't we all? I'm sorry, can we cut? I think your sub in could be a sketch thing. I think the idea of like a surgeon,

he's having like a bad day, he's killing someone. Like get a sub in here. Oh yeah. But also like think about calling a time out in the middle of surgery. Right. It's like, oh, phew, phew. Get the music going.

You sit on like a bench and you're just like, phew. This guy's like flatlining. You have to get the TNT music. Na na na. Na na na. A therapist too, the guy's like, yeah, then I diddle my third kid, time out. I had one last night that got something about like,

I have this whole like Luigi CEO chunk work in and out. One of the things that bugs me is the CEO, everyone's like, he was a father. And I'm like, well, that's sad, but that doesn't make me care more. Like, if a single person dies, I'm not like, well, luckily he had no, he had nothing to talk to. I'm like, how do you,

I wanna hear your take on the Luigi stuff. Cause I'm like, I get it. Insurance companies are, they're awful. But it's also like, I can't be the one that decides who lives and dies. Of course. But it's crazy. I think that's our take, I think.

He's like a vigilante, it's mind-blowing. And he's a hot guy, six-pack, valedictorian. A hot guy, he's more than hot. I don't know, there's so many layers to it. I don't know how to feel about it, to be honest. It's one of those things I can't decide. I think it was McDonald's, I mean everything's wacky about it.

Yeah, I think. Yeah, he ate in at McDonald's. He didn't go just pick it up, or he didn't postmate. Right, right. He's just like, yeah, I'll have the number four, and I'll be right over here at this booth. Like, we got him. Yeah, I think it's hard with the people

who are celebrating a murder, but it's tough also, because protests don't do shit. It's not gonna change healthcare. Yeah, he brought light to a situation that is clearly fucked. But nothing's gonna change, also. Yeah, by the way, the CEO answers to a board board and then they're also just gonna appoint a new one Yeah, yeah, we're not gonna know who it is. They're not gonna put them on the website

The new vigilante is not gonna know who to kill and know about the health care system Is that they held that meeting after he was killed he was there for a meeting? the CEO What a great point they're like well obviously what was his name obviously Brian's not gonna be here today but I think he would have wanted us to go on keep scamming people by the way that's such a great point that's all you need to know about that situation yeah I'm like I'm like I kind of like struggle with like the thought of it By the way, that's such a great point. That's all you need to know about that situation. Yeah, they don't give a shit. I'm like, I kind of struggle with the thought of it,

because I'm just like, I get it, but also... That's more than most Americans are doing, I think, right now. I think most people are calling him a hero. Yeah. Which, I get it, he brought light to a fucked up situation, but also it's just like, oof. Well, we had the Boston bombing kid. Remember, he was a hot kid. He was a cover of Rolling Stone

No, no, we had a mom, but I like we had him in America. He was a big deal He was like some people thought he was a hero, but that was way different He's actually gonna be played very soon by Timothy Chalamet character Yeah, I could see it I'm telling you people are blowing this guy Hitler was like the cover of Rolling. I'm telling you, people were blowing this guy. Hitler was on the cover of Time. Well, that makes sense. We did, there was another thing on the news

where they're like, he's a fucking coward for shooting this guy in the back. And it's like, well, it's shooting him in the front. Is it that much better? Would be like, hey, excuse me. Turn around, turn around. I have morals, turn around. Yeah, that's true. There it is. It's all bad. Turn around. I have morals. Turn around. Yeah, that's true.

There it is. It's all bad. Adolf. I mean, he was timely. This was a big deal, so I kinda get it. It checks out. We're weird about our covers. We actually, if you're on the cover,

it's like, oh, we love you, but it could be a bad guy. Yeah. He won man of ear, Mark. Ah. Did he win sexiest man for time? Well, hold on, what ear was it? Yeah. Let's talk about what else was going on. Yeah. I mean, I see I get it really he was on the way down, but they got him right at the I Know what I'm talking about. I mean, I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that I'm not gonna say that Let's pull up Nignolte, Sexy. I mean, I get it. Really?

He was on the way down, but they got him right at the... I guess. I mean, I feel like now, Sexy's Man of the Year, they're just trying to make a splash. Yeah. Like, you know what, we're gonna pick the guy who no one's expecting. 100%.

Yeah, I mean, that's not a great look. Oh my God, I thought that was Gary Busey. Yeah, similar. Wow. Yeah, they look alike there. You ever saw this? I mean, I have seen it, but I kind of forgot that he looked like, wow. Yeah, yeah.

It always was. What happened? What was he drinking? Drunk night, cocaine, hookers. Tuesday. Yeah. I think you threw hookers in. I threw hookers in, I always do. You fit that in. Yeah. I think you threw hookers in. I threw hookers in. I always do. It was just true.

Little darker. Yeah, I I can see it. I can see it. Little darker. I would get Angel Reese, I don't know why. I can see it. I'm like Annie. What is she, 6'3"?

Yeah, yeah, that's cuz of physicality or biology History Reality it's just like Reality. Yeah. Reality. It's just like. Strength? It kind of blows my mind that we're having these talks.

Of course. It's just like, I mean, yeah sure everybody's like, you know, oh Braunie's stuck. Dude, he, like if you. Oh wait. He's, yeah, I mean it'd be. Yeah, of course. It's to guard.

But is he in the NBA without LeBron? That is the question Thanks for having me go Like yeah, yeah, he's a fine actor is he in movies without Gary Could he get there? Yeah, I think like yeah being one and done in college I mean it probably would have served him better to like you know But like if you can get drafted go get drafted there you go I have zero issues with him getting drafted at the 56 pick. Yeah, I have

Zero issues with the at the Lakers being like, you know, we're gonna we're gonna do this The the the thing that they kind of I think that they probably messed up on is like, don't give him eight million guaranteed.
