Club Renew.
How are you?
Hi.
I'm trying to see you, huh?
Good to meet you.
What do you think of the...
Oh, it's a... I mean, look at the...
I know you're out there.
I can smell calvagina.
It was everything that just brought me in.
You know what that's from?
What is it from?
Well, first of all, this is called Club Renew.
It was everything in here, so random.
It is, but it goes.
It goes. Well, yeah.
It's like everything that didn't fit in my real house.
Round up here.
And then at some point, I've had this place for like almost 20 years,
it became like a Club Randa.
Yeah, but that's what I'm gonna say.
That's what I'm gonna say.
I know I was mentioning to your producers that there's a lot of little idioms inside of this place that I actually own like this I have producers
Well
I
I thought I was just coming you know I live like store right yeah, yeah, they're telling me did you get a drink? Yeah, yeah
Yeah, I'm doing a sulfate free red wine
We go well sulfate free red wine if they're gonna Yeah, I'm doing a sulfate-free red wine. You go well?
sulfate-free red wine, it's organic.
sulfate-free.
Yeah, I just learned that sulfates in the wine
is what causes those wine hangovers.
I mean, I'm always sympathetic to health stuff.
I'm very health-conscious.
Oh, fuck.
I mean, like, even this, as I pick up a bottle of fucking...
But you do have the mountain valley water.
Very, very health-conscious.
Yes, I'm sympathetic, certainly, always to anything
that like, oh, could this improve my health?
And maybe sulfates in the wine.
It also sounds like something that could have just been made up
by a bunch of chicks on the west side.
Exactly.
I mean, it's just a white, it sounds, it's very white.
Like, who is to know?
I mean, I was just reading something like...
Not that the whites are bad people.
We've done very fine things.
But no, I was just like reading something yesterday
about beeswax candles,
and apparently they're natural, the nature's natural air purifier
because they release negative ions
that link to air pollutants.
But who's, who's, who's to know, maybe the way to see that?
You know that people are listening to this
and saying these fucking Californians.
Exactly, exactly.
You remember that sketch?
And I said, no, the California.
I do, I do.
I mean, and I've always been a booster of California.
Like, I always hated me in the New York press
because I was like, no, I like California.
Yeah.
The greatest city in the world for you.
Yeah.
Not for me.
Are you from California?
No.
I'm from New York.
Oh, okay.
You know, that's pissed off about it
because most people moved here and they were like,
oh, I missed an intellectual climate
and I missed an artistic climate. And I was like, what about the climate an intellectual climate and I missed an artistic climate.
And I was like, what about the climate climate?
Yeah, I know.
I know.
So when I moved out here, I was like, oh, it's January.
And I'm like, not freezing.
And I'm laying by the pool.
You had me.
I'm getting my vitamin D. How long have you been in LA?
1983.
I was 27.
I just done two tonight shows.
So, that's what we did.
It's like time to move to California.
Mm-hmm.
You know.
Oh, great.
So, how did you get on the tonight show?
You know, you're a funny comic in the clubs
and they come scout and, you know,
I mean, they're aware of their business.
When I was a kid,
that was only like a few new comics a year.
That we've not like very often. Then, when I, just when I got a kid, those were only like a few new comics a year. They were not like very odd.
Then, just when I got into it, every idiot I ever told a joke, wanted to be.
So it was kind of like getting into a marathon where you have to wait for a lot of the people
who are going to be puking on the side of the road.
Right.
It was very crowded field.
I'll just say that.
Yeah.
So there was a million comics, but they would still come into the clubs,
and they would see, you know, you could tell who was going somewhere usually.
Yeah. And then you'd go on with Johnny Carson and be like the biggest thing in the world.
You know, Burmids for as a show business person. And hopefully he'd give you the old.
Right. Here we go. Now they made into a white power symbol. I mean, I don't think it really is,
but they say that. They say that is and what's funny is that in like social media take
culture, this, if you do this symbol somewhere when somebody's taking a picture, it's like,
oh, I got you. I will put it. Right. That's that's what. So you like, it's like a game.
And then like shortly after that, it became a white
power symbol.
So like, I know a lot of my friends were doing that,
got a tax, there's a whole thing.
But I didn't know you started as a stand up.
Well, Johnny Carson must have been in the clan because he was always going,
you know, you wanted that so badly, you know, just to get the old approval from.
Few approval.
That's funny stuff.
Yeah, but I also feel like this symbol started
as the okay symbol.
It is.
And then it mirrors the other things.
They just made something up to like catch people.
Right, exactly.
After you've already been doing it, yeah, it's a whole.
They wonder why, you know, so many people these days are like,
Bill, why are you so hard on the left these days?
I'm like, I'm just as hard on the right.
It's just that the left didn't use to do these things
that make me go, fuck off.
You know, like in your own business
and just stuff being such a busy body and it has.
Now you're totally.
Right, right, like some things such an asshole about things.
Why am I going on the game?
And where's this going?
Who started this, too?
This has been happening for so long.
Just catching people.
Yeah.
The guy on the Jeopardy.
Did you see that?
One of the guys who was like, I think he won like three.
I don't know.
I don't watch Jeopardy.
And why the media is like obsessed with this show.
I mean, they cover it like it's national news.
I just blows my mind like, yeah.
I know.
Whatever's going on on Jeopardy.
He's like, I have to know.
I mean, yeah, the demographic,
like the only demographic I know
that watches it religiously in my 90 year old grandma.
I'm like, who else are you going to read?
And I love the concept because I love that there are people
who still care about knowing things.
And that's a show about knowing things.
My show's that way, too.
Anyway, but they're much more serious
in those people that geniuses and the guy was like,
I guess he won three weeks in a row or something.
So he was just saying three,
like the players do when they make a three point shot,
they need to make someone so it's just a way to say,
instead of you gotta guess you go that way or that way.
And then they said he was doing that.
And I think he was just saying I won three times.
Oh no, so they need to get into that.
Right, they made the jeopardy guy into the clansmen.
Oh God. And it's like yeah
at that point fuck off fuck off yeah I'm with you Bill
oh good because if you're not you got thrown out of club random
I will get a bouncer over here oh no I love like I had no idea I'd ever be able to meet you
my my parents are a really big fan of your show.
They watch it every, every week.
I always love to hear that.
I'd be even more flattered if it were your grandmother
because older people are generally wiser.
Oh, yeah.
So, because they've lived longer.
Mm-hmm.
It's hate to break it to your kids.
I know.
So, like, the fact that you're parents,
so I'm sure they seem to have raised
a very, very charming air you date young lady.
So I'm sure there are cool people.
Yeah.
They must be, they like me.
Yeah, of course, of course.
What are they gonna think about this?
I mean, I told my mom about it and she was just like,
who?
Who are you?
Oh, wow.
Okay, well, let me know how it goes.
And she just like really, like, didn't really believe it.
She didn't really, I don't know.
I think she just didn't believe it.
I haven't told her that yet.
Your parents are, these are the parents you were up with.
Mm-hmm.
I actually, fun fact, I just turned 30
and I just moved out of my parents' house
like two years ago.
On purpose?
On purpose.
Yeah, there's a lot of that.
You're millennial.
You love your parents' here, like you.
Because who else is going to buy SRAN wrap?
I mean, that's just such like a random small task
that I always forget.
They do my laundry.
I can focus on my career right come back
Well, it's just they're salmon on the table called adulting. I know you're adulting
So you moved out to California
Where wait wait no, we're going back to your parents, okay, okay
Because they're the ones who love me. Yeah, so I love them. Well, I love you too. Oh good
But you probably do because your parents, you know so you're, they're obviously very smart people.
People with great taste.
Mm-hmm.
And they stayed together as a family unit,
all the time.
Yeah, I mean, they're still together.
That's right. That's rare.
Very rare, but also I would always see them together
while watching your show.
So maybe you are the reason that my parents are still kicking.
Yes, I bring people together.
That's what I do. I give, I give, I give, and then what do I do? I give a little more.
Yeah. That's, yeah, that's cute. So they watch me together. And do they argue about it or
do they agree about it? Oh, they agree. They laugh my mom scratches my dad's back. Everybody's having a good time. I thought you guys say his balls.
Okay, but this is good too.
I'll take my liking.
I'm like, oh my God.
Oh, rough, imagining that.
Sorry, I'm very visual and I just watch that.
You know, thank you, mother,
still scratches your father's balls.
I hope not.
I really hope not.
I mean, there's like,
why would you hope not? Hey, mother your father's balls. I hope not. I really hope not. I mean, there's like- Why would you hope not?
Hey, you love it?
It's hard.
I mean, I obviously wish for love
and people expressing their love,
but when it's my parents,
there's something that triggers them
at my throat that just makes me want to throw up.
I just want them to be happy, like all my fans.
I mean, so they raised you right on me.
It's good.
I mean, do you feel like they raised you right?
I mean, I do.
I mean, I'm still kicking today.
You're 30.
Yeah, I'm still kicking.
You expect to be dead in 28?
I mean, kicking.
Or like, I mean...
You're kicking ass.
Yeah, that's what I'm really good at.
Put it right there.
Yeah, kicking us at 30.
So yeah, I do think there is.
You did stuff with people I'm involved in, attention.
Attention.
I mean, that's, attention is a,
always amazed that it's an under-reported on company,
because it's so successful.
So successful.
And with millennials who want to know what the fuck is up,
it's huge.
Yeah.
They get anybody Matthew Siegal, who's my great
friend, Ben Tierner, the club friend of many times, and he founded it and ran it. And they
get anybody. Like Obama, can we interview you? Yes. Hillary. They're the people who are
you know, important and in the know know, oh, if I want to reach the millennial, the millennial
is who actually can vote.
Yeah.
You know, not the ones who were asleep when it did,
you have to be in a burning man or something.
The one right we're gonna vote.
This is where we got to reach them.
Yeah, yeah.
So for you to be on there,
which I think is a good, a real feather for you.
Yeah, yeah.
I really loved working with them
because we collabed on a lot of aspects
about like just relatability within science
and stuff I have a science background.
So I guess that's a good component of my period.
You're the hot scientist.
You're like Dr. Christmas and the,
you ever see the James Bond movie
where Charlie Sheen's ex-wife, I'm sorry.
What was? Denise Richards? Denise Richards, I'm sorry, what was- Denise Richards?
Denise Richards, I'm sorry, Denise Richards, I forgot, must be the alcohol.
But as you should, you deserve it.
But she was like, doctor, I think her name was Dr. Christmas.
Oh, okay, and it was in a show.
It was a movie, it was in James Bond movie.
It's one of the, she was one of,
this is back in the day when James,
James Bond was allowed to like fuck hot chicks.
That's, you know, now they completely pacified him.
I mean, he, on this one, it's so pathetic.
He literally takes his girlfriend and her daughter
on his mission to save the world.
He practically stops off at target to bite tampons on the way to the underground layer.
Oh, really?
Yes, it's because this is the world we live in.
Right, right.
But back in that day, Dr. Christmas and Denise Richards was hotter than the sun, so it's still
there.
Oh, yeah.
And, but also a brilliant scientists. I love that.
It's just like you looked at her and went, that's not really possible, but I'll go. Yeah, I'll do it.
But you know, I'm brilliant scientist. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, no, I just, I don't know, I grew up in.
What is your science? Well, I grew up in a small town and I really had no idea like what I'm
doing now could even be profitable.
You know, I would always think like,
okay, yeah, the most money I could make,
studying would definitely be a doctor,
so I'm gonna study to be a doctor.
And I am, you know, more left brain, I think.
So science did come pretty easy for me.
So I, I had done a major in biology and chemistry
and then to be like really competitive in that,
you know, field to be accepted to medical school.
I did embryonic stem cell research.
And so I just really, really balls deep in it.
This is in college?
Yeah, in college.
And then I always had a passion for it.
And then, yeah, I mean, after I graduated,
I fell into, you know, what I'm doing now, but
still I'm really always watching Ted Talks.
I've heard a lot of, like, academic research, scientific research is bullshit.
I mean, that's so much politics and, like, a lot of stuff that you cannot really trust
what's in studies, very often, through a variety of corrupting reason.
Mm-hmm. Yeah, pretty much like I feel a lot of articles on Google
are just kind of paid for and false, and there's like,
forget what it is, NHCI or something.
There's some like website that actually has legit scientific studies,
and apart from that, I really don't believe anything.
There was a senator, I think it was Ron Wyden, who said, if you write a big enough check,
you can get any result you want.
Absolutely.
I totally knew that.
So that is your memory of it.
Well, yeah, I totally agree with it.
That's sad.
So now you play a hot scientist on TV.
Yeah, and that's what I did in attention.
And so we kind of just collabed on a series.
We did a lot of skits and sketches that we collabed on
and kind of targeted the millennial audience.
And so that's how I got involved with them.
Well, anything that can engage people,
because the distracting level of that fucking phone, it's just,
it's like, I mean, I really feel like trying to get anything done. Yes, there are good aspects
to it, but basically, I feel like the phone makes you a huge asshole. Yeah, much more passive aggressive. And you can do things anonymously and ghost people.
And it just, all this.
And then come up with an alibi easily.
Yeah, it's a whole thing.
And then also, like, disconnecting from reality, too.
Like, my boyfriend does that a lot.
Where I'm like, hey, like, what do you think about this?
And you just like, you know, it's just, yeah, it's definitely what you say.
That's really gross.
It's alright, I hate that.
Really?
I know.
So what's like your screen time?
I was looking at his phone, Molly.
It's an employee bill.
Yeah.
Maybe we should go to the therapy session right now.
Oh, I wonder what your mom and dad are thinking now.
I know.
And that we finally stop talking about his balls. Why do you have to bring it up again,
Bill? You keep kind of bringing back that video to my head. You're right. I know five more
times throughout this. I'm going to keep visiting it. It's going to be a nightmare.
Okay, that's the last time. I'm nightmares. I'm still curious about your parents. So what do they do?
So my mom, she's a film editor.
Oh really?
She had it smoothie trailers.
Oh wow.
And my dad, he owns a coffee shop.
Your mom had it smoothie trailers.
So she must appreciate the old in a world joke,
because there was a time in every comic in the world
noticed that every trailer started with in a world.
Exactly, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Every comic had a bit about that.
Oh, totally.
Remember any of them, but it's said so true.
Yeah.
So that's what she did.
Yeah, so that's what she did.
She actually has a lot of those commercials
that start with in a world.
They all do.
Yeah, but I've seen.
Yeah.
So funny to say that.
Wait, so how long have you been in LA?
Right. Still not done with your family. Okay, okay. Sorry, so how long have you been in LA?
Wait, still not done with your family.
Okay, okay, sorry, I made it.
If I approve of your family,
and then your membership to Club Random will be pro-sports.
If you just see Demetri out front of you.
I get to VIP Cabin over there next time.
Isn't that cool? You saw that VIP?
Yeah, it's so sick.
I mean, I got a house, so now I'm all into furniture.
I just love it.
Can you read what that sign says at the bottom?
Best friends only.
No, below that.
Below that.
So we're the ones with glasses.
I know, I can't see that either.
I can't remember.
It's something good though.
We'll go over there later.
Yeah, later.
If I can get us in.
It's a blimp, binoculars, so.
I don't know if I can get us in,
and it's only bottle service, so.
Oh, okay.
Have you got any cash with you?
No, no, it's $22.
You don't carry cash?
No, no, wait, do you?
Of course.
Well, actually the only time I carry cash
is after I've gone to the strip club
with some of my friends,
and they give me a lot of money to throw
and I actually keep that.
Many girls never carry cash.
They're always like somebody always pay.
Everybody got money for it.
Have you seen me?
Someone's gonna step up.
I guess you're right.
Yeah.

I have like three drinks a week, a week.
Mm-hmm.
That's good.
Yes.
Three drinks total or three nights at your drink?
Three drinks, a week.
I say my drink for, you know, people I really like.
So, it's safe by high alcohol for like, when I just, a couple of times would really,
because it's not good for me.
Yeah.
Any, you know, people in this country like to have this idea that like, poisons in moderate amounts are okay.
I mean, they're always like, well, there's not enough.
Like to me, any amount.
I don't call me crazy, but any amount of poison, I'm against.
Yeah, and then also.
That's why I'm all forgetting the sulfate settle one.
Yeah, but also, to piggyback off of that,
I was learning about all that in COVID,
and then I watched a TED talk about alcohol
and the effects on you.
And it mentioned that red wine is the only alcohol
that's neurogenicist neutral.
So it's the only alcohol that doesn't kill your brain cells.
Then I started to be like,
oh wow, well, I'll just indulge in some wine
and then I would have crazy hangovers.
Then I learned about the sulfate for you.
But, gimmick, but still not good, not good.
I have to throw a little yellow flag on the brain so I'll say,
I don't...
It's not a real thing, no.
Exactly, that goes back to what we were saying,
like, what do we actually believe?
Right, I mean, my thing with medicine is always,
I look at it, I feel, from a, more of a,
maybe a bird's eye view than what people are like,
a COVID, they're so like focused,
monow on COVID, they're so like focused
Mono on COVID, everything is COVID. And I've always been interested in health and
my overarching theme is that
We are at the infancy of understanding how the body works and medicine if not they'd have cured cancer in Parkinson's and in a million other things. Yeah. So, let's just be humble about the fact that we don't know. And this thing that you said about like Kills Brains cells, I've heard that all of my life.
But I also heard all of my life things like metabolism slows with age and they just found
out it didn't.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
So, when I hear like Kills Brains cells, I'm like, maybe, and maybe it's one of those that
any year. So, so does breathing. I'm like, maybe, and maybe it's one of those that any year.
So, so does breathing.
I mean, what does it mean,
can kills brain cells?
I've been, you know, getting high on one thing
or another for a long time.
Yeah.
And I never forget what I'm saying.
I've been high on a lot of things for a long time.
And I never forget what I'm saying.
Like, really?
Like, how high? No, not high at all. I mean, I'm not too, that's what you still forget what I'm saying. Like really? Like how high?
No, not high at all.
I mean, I'm not too, that's what I'm still.
I don't lightweight as far, I mean,
I know people who've done so much more,
I mean, like everybody.
So much more in our state of form.
I didn't get tried on pot till I was 19.
That's pretty late in the game.
That is really late in the game.
Yeah, especially with this stage.
Yeah, and then that was always, you know,
I thought more benign than lots of other things.
And, you know, everybody has a little flirtation
with cocaine and then you find out how horrible that is.
And, you know, you trip sometimes mushrooms,
I've been mushrooms, but, you know,
I'm a much less of a drug addict than people think.
Yeah, yeah. But also, I think much less of a drug addict than people think. Yeah, yeah.
But I think that's probably why you're still crushing the game, too.
I feel like a lot of people that get a big moment kind of fall into that.
Oh, finishes.
So what's your secret?
What is your secret?
To what?
Like, how have you been able to still still kill it after so many years clean liquor I
mean living clean living to say oh I don't know I'm enjoying myself I I hope I'm killing it I know
I'm killing it for the people who like it I mean there's a lot of people who hate me yeah but you
know that comes with it yeah and they're wrong. But, you know,
yeah, it's, I don't know. I think people in general have a bad attitude about age as
you're in my age range, 60s, 70s. They have a, because it's a generally unhealthy country
and people are not in good health to begin with, they do see a lot of decline
in that era and they just assume that and like, I'm sure it'll come for me, but like there's
literally nothing in my life that I don't basically do the same way because I never fucking grew up.
I never got married, had kids. I didn't go through those panties. Look at me, I'm still
here in my fucking handcade with a hot chick. Yeah, yeah. So, you know, my life hasn't really changed.
And that's just true of like most of the things
that I ever did that make me happy.
I still do about the same way.
So, like, it hasn't caught up to me yet.
It will, of course.
It will none of us are immortal.
But people just have a shitty view.
They think you're like done at 50 almost. Exactly. And like, a lot of people are not a shitty view. They think you're like done at 50. Yeah, exactly.
And like, a lot of people are not even getting started.
I mean, it takes a long time to figure lots of shit out.
Like women.
Yeah.
That certainly takes a lifetime.
Even when I look back, when I think about like at 40,
I was like, oh, I still had very wrong ideas.
Right.
You know, and did looking back
is do she kind of things?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I would never do today.
Right.
You know, I'm just so happy.
Yeah, I know.
I kind of view ages of power.
I also, I was thinking the other day,
and I wish instead of how old are you,
instead of what level are you on?
Like, don't you wish I could be like,
oh, well, I'm on level 30 and I'm on level
of our world you are,
because it's like leveling up in a game
and it should be like appreciated and praised.
You're right.
And also like you're never too old or too young
really start,
but do you ever think that you would ever be a married?
Okay.
Well,
this is what Arianna Huffington always says.
For 30 years, I build.
You must get married.
You must have children.
I'm like, I must not.
Yeah, but still, you know, you can do whatever you want.
She loves to tell that story about my mother.
My mother when she was 75.
I remember we had a little party.
I was living in New York doing my first show
which your parents probably watched you were probably too young to that one politically incorrect and
That's how I got to know Ariana and so we had a birthday in New York for my mother came in when her 75th birthday
I remember I gave her a diamond pin cuz 75 diamonds, you know and Ariana starts it
75, down in the middle. And Ariana starts it up.
But you must encourage him to get met.
And my mother just went, and in a nice way.
But just my mother, she was in World War II.
So she wasn't like any, someone who took a lot of shit
or a lot of bullshit.
I probably got it from her.
She just went, oh, I ran you on a give it up.
Get it?
We have a break, exactly. He's not going give it up. Yeah, she even broke, exactly.
Oh, that's not it.
She's not gonna get married.
And that was back then, maybe.
Yeah.
Well, how old were you then?
Oh, I was in my 30s.
I mean, that was probably, yeah,
that was when I first was on that show.
And so did you ever like,
I know for me, like as a...
Just not right for everybody.
No, totally.
For a lot of women, I hit to generalize, but I know for myself, it's like the, oh, I would
love to get married, but now as I'm getting older and I'm meeting men, I'm like, do I
really?
But did you ever have that feeling or desire to, or were you always like, no, that's just
not right?
Yes, but I think it was implanted.
I do think it's a change in tune.
From aliens, and when I say aliens I mean the culture
implants this idea that there is you know look at movies there's one soulmate you know there's
one perfect person and you're only with that person for the rest of your life. Yeah and also it's
like all the romantic comments about you have to find it's like an Easter egg hump there's an egg
you know it's the perfect egg for you and you're gonna find it and then you'll be made whole, you'll complete me and all that crap, you know.
Yeah. And for some people it can work out. There are people who have
wonderful marriages from the beginning to end. I know them, you know, they would be...
Know them but it's so few.
But so, exactly. That's exactly it.
And now, even in my generation, I think that the percentage of, you know,
divorces are going way higher than what they used to be.
It's just, you know, people used to just be
a lot more innocent, basically.
Yeah.
And let's access to a lot of things too.
Let's sexually more innocent and let's sharing
of their personal and much more decor.
But also, yeah, they're probably innocents. They weren't seeing as many stuff. They weren't like hearing like crazy parties that's going on.
Yeah, guys were fucking hats and coat and tie at a baseball game.
Yeah, girls are in baseball.
Baseball game.
I mean, people just, you know, just carried themselves. Now it's just that all countries just
much as lovingly slabs and they just...
Absolutely. The girls are in the long-core sets that can't breathe.
In that atmosphere, it's harder to keep them married together. I'm not sure why
they're directly related, but I think they are.
So what do your father do? My father, well, I grew up with him.
He had a chocolate factory at the time.
Wait a minute, grew up with him.
Well, I grew up while he's now doing something different.
I mean, I grew up while he was doing
and handling a chocolate factory.
So he's pretty much like,
well, I think it was with your mother.
Yeah, yeah, they are still together.
They're still together.
Uh, always loved in the same house.
But yeah, so he was Willy Wonka.
He owns endangered species.
Where was this?
Where?
In Oregon.
I grew up in Oregon.
Oregon.
Really small town.
Yeah, and then a lot of his proceeds went to endangered animals.
It was great. He sold the company and now he's, you know, kind of retiring proceeds went to endangered animals. It was great.
He saw the company and now he's, you know, kind of retiring off of a coffee shop in Verbank.
It's called Basecamp.
You should go.
It's really cool.
If I'm ever in the need for any kind of...
Any kind of coffee paste drink.
Any kind of high.
I'm going to write it down for me.
I will go there. Yeah, you should. Where
is it in relation to that big giant big boy statue? Oh, I know what you're talking about.
Oh, it's famous. Bob is big boys. Yes. Yes. Or this is a giant donut. It's kind of
by Disney studios on Riverside. I've heard of them.
Yeah.
I've heard of them.
Yeah.
So, okay.
So your father is Willy Wonka, and your mother is in a world.
Yeah.
In a world, yes.
And they both love you.
And they both love me, and they love you.
Mm-hmm.
They kind of have to.
Yeah.
I wanted to think about what, like, you know,
this has sent you've been on.
And, like, how many millions,
millions of followers do you have?
Yeah.
How many?
Cross all platforms?
Maybe 70 million?
70 million.
I mean, that's like, I always love that term followers,
because, like, I always makes me think of Jesus.
Because like before, social media, who had followers?
The guy like him, like the guy with a robe and a stick. Totally. You're the first person to make that clearly. That totally makes so much sense.
And people literally...
And people were actually literally in person following him now just digitally.
You say followers. Jesus is like, hey, you know what?
I have followers.
I mean, these are literally following down this show.
And oh my God, it's a stick in my head.
And this robe, okay.
That's what a fucking silver tongue devil I am.
I got a stick in a robe and yeah.
Yeah.
But yeah, I could ask my dad like,
hey dad, what do you think I do?
He could still, I don't fucking know, I don't know how to do it.
I just know you make a lot of money, that's it.
And so my dad doesn't really,
I mean, he's like a Greek Armenian kind of hard ass.
He doesn't really know, doesn't he?
I mean, like a Greek Armenian.
He's Greek.
He is, but he's just like like a heart.
All right, now let's talk about the Greeks and their medians.
Yeah, yeah.
Greeks like Ariana, right?
I mean, founders of basically Western civilization.
Yeah.
Certainly the country fell on hard chimes
for a couple of thousand years after that,
but still a great people.
Great people.
So, so warm and in their hands.
And their ancestors are gods.
There was?
And sisters, right?
Yeah.
Oh, well, their ancestors believed in gods.
Believed in gods, yeah.
They weren't.
I mean, Zeus himself, I don't think.
You think Zeus was Greek?
Where is it that you're living?
Where is it that you're living?
Well, Zeus was a Greek god, you know. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think. You think Zeus is Greek? Where is it that you're living? Where is it that you're living? Where is it that you're living?
Zeus is the Greek God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, but like, you can, like, I'm saying about Europeans in general, you know, you kind of
feel the, that they have centuries of knowledge and history behind them.
You know, they're just a world-ingness that we don't have as Americans.
Yeah.
Informing languages.
Just like people.
Again, like more decades, usually you're a little more savvy.
Yeah. About shit.
Totally.
If you're not, you're progressing the wrong way.
Mentally.
Yeah.
What's your ethnicity background?
I'm a ballerina.
And a disperigate.
You good because you always turn it back.
And that's good. I know, and that's really a great quality.
I mean, when people say something's charming,
what they really mean is they were interested in me. Mm-hmm. When people say something's charming,
what they really mean is they were interested in me. Mm-hmm.
Everybody loves talking about themselves.
You know who's a bore?
Someone talks about themselves all the time.
All the time, yeah.
But someone who says, what about you?
Yeah, but that's what makes me interesting.
You're like, this person's charming as fuck.
Wow, I'll talk about myself all day.
But because like, and I feel like with you,
it comes from a genuine place.
So it just makes me think,
oh, well, this is a, this is a bench.
This is a decent person because they're not just about you.
So let me tell you about what you're saying.
Yeah.
Back to me.
Yes, yes.
No, I'm kidding.
So I'm from two peoples who got their independence
in the 20th century.
Two peoples who are both very poetic
and were very, you know, had rough histories to Jews
and the Irish.
My father was Irish Catholic,
the kind of Irish that came to America
in the 19th century that a potato famine
and a lot of Irish came.
There's a lot of me.
There's a lot of people, I met many guys who were like,
people say I look like you,
I'm like, you're one of us.
Just a little swob.
This Irish mug, you know.
one of us. Right, right, right. Yeah. This Irish mug, you know. Right.
So I was raised Catholic, unfortunately.
My mother is like, I think Hungarian, you know, Eastern European, Jewish by heritage.
But I never even knew she was a Jew until I was 13. What? Yeah. How?
They just, because they just, mom didn't go to church.
My sister and my father and I went to church,
and my sister and I went to catechism.
And I was so scared.
And whenever you do the kid, they think it's whatever is normal.
I never even questioned mom, just doesn't go.
I never thought about it.
I had other things on my mind like,
I fucking hate these nuns, They scare the shit out of me.
That's what I had on my mind.
Yeah.
And so you didn't know anything.
No, I mean, it just kind of came up Christmas one year when I was third time, remember.
I was kind of shocked, you know.
And then I put it together because like, her side of the family, but again, they weren't
like religious Jews. I've never been in a temple. My mother's never been in a temple
to my knowledge.
We're just culturally.
And that's really the best part of it.
You don't need the hair things that come down
and the fuzzy hats and some earrings.
You know, I mean, you don't need this.
You know, I mean, I'm sure.
Yeah.
Radal, she got one of the good references. I'll give you a doing, yeah. Dredals, you got what a good reference.
I'll give you a pound on that.
Dredals.
Now, how do you know about Dredals?
I barely know about Dredals.
Yeah, well, my neighbor's Jewish,
and I go to their Shabbat every Friday.
Really?
See, I'd never been to that.
Religious ceremonies.
Yeah.
I had a bad experience with the Catholic.
Not as bad as many. Oh, okay. I was never a
molest. Right. And I'm assaulted if I had no. No, that's interesting that you found out about
being part Jewish when you're 13. Because I actually found out that I still had living family when I
was about like 18 years. I mean, living family. Oh, that you'd never met. That I never about like 18 years. What do you mean living family?
Oh, that you'd never met?
That I never knew of.
Yeah, so my dad was adopted.
Like, oh, really?
Yeah, and apparently, apparently this is the word
on the street in my family is that my Greek family
was in the Gratian Mafia, so they were actually
in prison for life.
Then I went on Facebook and then I found my long lost cousin.
Didn't say?
So I have like a whole big family now that I just found.
There's a Greek mafia.
Yeah.
I guess there's everybody's mafia.
Yeah, I think there's a lot of people.
They must not be very good because they're never in movies.
Yeah.
I mean, like, they must be a really second rate mafia.
I mean, if you're going to look for a mafia,
it's always the Russian.
Russians or other Eastern Europeans.
Like, it's taken their Serbians and those...
They're not to characterize, but like, those kind, yes.
Eastern European mafia is our scary.
Yeah.
I have only the highest respect.
Yeah, I'll explain.
Let me say that on the public record
for the Eastern European Mafia.
Yeah.
I don't need the highest respect.
There are fine Mafia.
Yeah, no, no, no.
But the Greek I never heard of them.
Yeah, Greek I heard of them when I found out about it all.
And the Armenian side now.
Mm-hmm.
That's like, I know I don't look like it,
but you could tell if you saw my leg here if I didn't shave it.
Oh. See, now that's the or version of Scratcher for others, Bull.
Yeah.
I don't need to see that. Think about that.
I'm really sure. I have a picture of my legs mid-quarantine.
I take your word for it.
Okay.
We are supported by wine enthusiasts.
In Greek mythology, Dianis's son of Zeus and his mistress,

of wine with friends. And whether you're living on a mountain with a bunch of nymphs or just hanging
with friends, the summer heat and sunlight can spoil your wine and your
good times if it's not properly stored. So now it's the time to get those
bottles out of boxes or off your countertops and protect them with a wine fridge

Did you know HBO Max had podcasts?
I'm on my podcast,
talking about the podcast on my network.

Listen to HBO Max's new companion podcast for the original

actors Colin Firth and Tony Collette, as well as experts to help unpack the science,
history, and psychology behind the Michael Peterson case. Stream new episodes of The Staircase
on HBO Max and subscribe to The Staircase podcast on all major podcast platforms. How would you characterize the difference between
a life presented on Instagram, typically,
and that life in reality?
In reality, I guess it kind of varies.
If you're talking about influencers or creators,
it kind of varies on what kind of creating they're doing,
or if they're really open,
because there's a lot of people that are really open
about their own struggles and mental struggles
and family struggles and things that they're actually
going through and they present it
and they let people know like their mental health
what's going on with them so people can relate to them
or there's other categories of people who just flex
their bags and vacations
and then there's other people who just do comedy bits
just to bring happiness to already such a negative world.
Right.
So I think I would fall in the category of bringing, you know,
a positive light to the community.
Yeah, I don't mean the pros.
I'm talking about just the regular jabones
who are like, who are done it?
And they're like,
fronting.
Yeah.
Like presenting a...
Oh, and then, so it's kind of like
Beyonce's like Sasha Fierce.
Like they like present some, you know,
new character whenever the camera's on, are you saying?
I think so. I mean, like, you, I'm asking you, because this is why I love talking to people your age, like present some new character whenever the camera's on. Are you saying?
I think so.
I mean, I'm asking you, because this is why I love talking
to people you're at age, because I need to legitimately
find these things out.
Yeah, so let me also.
So I'm interested in the eye finding out,
like because my impression is that a lot of it is just people. Yes, presenting, it's not like they're lying about life too much,
but filters, angles, choosing to just show the moments where you're doing great.
It seems to be a lot about wanting very badly to have everyone else
who's following me think everything's going great
Either that or like endless
Sobs stories about your you know your mental problem right right right
But let's just take that other category. Yeah, no, they're type who want to present this idea
This facade that's not true and then they try to make it relatable to their followers, and then their followers
are still going through puberty,
and they're just like,
why can't I achieve this?
Here's my deep, deep, deep question for this to you.
Why is it important?
Why is it important that other people think you're doing great?
Why is that so, it shouldn't be so important.
I think that is definitely a topic within social media
because social media is so huge,
but I feel like that's also been a topic for,
before social media too.
I remember before social media,
I was always going to middle school,
dressed up, pretending everything's fine. You were doing this. Yeah, I was, and I was wearing, you know, going to middle school dressed up, pretending everything's fine.
You were doing this. Yeah, I was. I was wearing my outfit and like, pretending I wasn't just
crying on the way here. So I'm always, like, I feel human's always try to present their best
selves. You're right. No matter what. But it's so, that's, that's so true. But it's,
weren't easily able to see exactly what I said about the the phone. It makes you it's not like you're not an asshole to begin with
It just takes your asshole qualities and exacerbates them. You're totally right. People were always fronting
Always people were always trying to you just couldn't do it if you had to go to high school every day
People would see you all day. Yeah, You know, you can't fake that.
Yeah.
But you can with a picture.
Yeah.
I mean, there are a lot of people that,
and often a lot of times, I'm guilty of it too,
where it's like, okay, cool, the camera's on,
like somebody's doing a story.
Yeah, we're having so much fun.
Yeah, she's so pleased, she's so pleased.
But, and then we immediately just go back to like chillin.
So it is like, it's just such an interesting dynamic
of how you kind of turn on your training as a communicator.
In a different era of technology,
then I did when I came up and other people have.
But it's the same basic thing.
The technology changes, what they will never have too much of is good content.
There's more content, it's flooded with it.
It's insane how flooded it is.
Yes, it's that marathon I was talking about.
Yeah.
You've got a marathon too.
And at a certain point, a lot of other people will be puking on the side of the road.
But I think when you're going to advance in your career through different media, the way,
you know, like, you see singers do it. Like they're a teen sensation. And then, you know,
Lady Gaga now is she's 30 or something. It's more like, freak people that age.
You grow with your audience, you know?
Is that what happened with you?
Like, did, I'm wondering, like, genuinely,
like, did you ever have a moment,
and I know it never stopped you,
but did you ever, ever have a moment
where you were like, puking on the side of the road,
like, not doing well for your real flocks?
All a bit, and so on.
I think you can over it For worse. All of it. And so I'm kind of thinking over it.
Like tell me about it.
It's what I mean, you never did.
I go, wow, you're lucky.
I went right from you never.
No, trust me, I go through creative blocks.
I go through like to take a month off this rough.
No, but like when you were 23, were you doing this?
And that's when I was a kid.
That's when I was a kid.
Well, right from the beginning?
Well, yeah, so.
Okay, yeah, switch gears.
So how I started was, it was interesting.
It was, I was doing my pre-med degree
and my family while I was in college in the Bay Area,
they moved from Oregon to LA.
And so, I need spring break, summer break, winter break. I couldn't go back to where I was from, so I would go Oregon to LA. And so, my niece spring break, summer break, winter break,
I couldn't go back to where I was from,
so I would go back to LA and had no friends.
It was just my parents and my pets.
And then I also played volleyball in college.
So, oftentimes I was always at the gym working out for volleyball.
And I mean, in the middle of Hollywood,
24-hour fitness is just a meat market.
I can't meet friends that way.
It's always guys like,
you can know I just say, let me work. I can't meet friends that way. It's always guys like, you know what I just like,
let me work.
I'm in the middle of it.
Really?
That's really happened.
Yeah.
Like that exactly.
It's just,
it's your earphones out, number.
It's, yeah, but it's not just once.
It's, I go to a workout 20 times.
It's insane.
They're starting to treat reality almost like it's tender.
Right?
It's like even worse than it's ever been.
It's worse than it's ever been.
It's high love this segment.
The cat call.
It's yeah.
It's worse than it's ever been.
But yeah, like.
I always love to hear.
Who worries you?
Yeah.
By the way, I do.
It always amazes me to hear attractive women talk about,
like episodes of Guys hitting on them.
We can do another episode of this film
on talking hours straight about it.
It's just endless comedy.
Yeah, and it is comedy too, like how guys think that this
would definitely work.
But the things they say are absolute absurd.
But back what I was saying is I was at the gym.
A guy was with his girlfriend, so green flag.
They come up to me, they say some funny,
I say something funny back, I forget what it was.
And they say, hey, you're funny.
You should come out and vine with us tomorrow.
And vine, it's, or a pee vine, but it's not existed now.
What a memory vine.
Yeah, so it was six second videos.
Yep.
And I thought that was just so long.
Too long, I thought.
Too long, okay.
I was like, please, I'm a busy man.
Six second videos.
What do you think I'm just sitting around
like underwear reading Cheetos all day with nothing to do?
Right, yeah.
But yeah, so I just thought Vine was cat videos on the fly.
I didn't understand that people actually
are scheduled to Vine.
So how I got into it was, oh cool friends
other than my parents and pets.
And so I Vine with them and they shot a few vines.
I kind of saw how they did it, saw the ideas they did.
Then I came up with some concept.
It was nine years ago.
It's one of those relatable ones, guys check out girls
versus girls check out guys.
Right, Facebook.
So the girl.
Yeah.
And so the girl, you know, she's the guy walked by and then the girl walks by
the guy's whole life. Don't show these phone, you jump sound my back. And then, and like really
aggressive with it, like what we're day. And then... Top Bad Jesus.
Yeah, top Bad.
And so my friend was like,
hey, you have a fan base now.
You owe it to your fans to come out with more content
we're running tomorrow.
So you both on your chart come with 3.8.
Brilliant. You both on your base.
And you built 100,000.
I built 100,000, but I was still like,
great, this is at least I can just have friends.
I never knew this would be something I could generate
revenue from.
And so that's why I continue to go to college.
That's why I graduated.
I was 17 years old.
I will never fully understand like all of this
because a, I'm not that interested in like,
well, yeah, it's sort of like such a beast,
and you're already such a beast in your field.
No, it's not that.
It's just that like something has to come to me.
And when I saw you on attention,
that's when you came to me.
Oh, yeah.
Like an angel from above.
And I was like, oh wow, that's very smart.
And I'm telling you, and you know, you're 30 now.
And you could be like hosting the CBS evening news
when you're 40 or 40.
You know what I'm saying?
You're going to graduate to other things in media
because you're smart.
You know, you can handle it.
Yeah.
It's great.
So after you were a stand-up comic,
like when did you?
And you have that natural instinct,
that interviewer's instinct, you go right back.
I was, I really wonder you.
Like what was your process after you broke out of stand,
or did the standup comedy interview?
Oh well, when we first,
when we all first started at the clubs in New York
in the early 80s, we wanted to get on a sitcom.
That was the big thing.
And many of us did.
I did.
Jerry Seinfeld did.
Everybody wanted that.
That was it.
You were a comedian.
You did Johnny Carson.
And then they saw you on Johnny Carson.
They put you on a sitcom like Roseanne and Freddie Prince and all these people.
And Robin Williams.
And then you became a big star for being on a sitcom.
That's what was in our mind when I was 23. Then that changed over the time. And then I
did sitcoms and I was like, no, this is not what I'm really cut out to do. So then there
was a little period like where I was really wandering in the wilderness. I had done sitcoms
and thought I was going to be like a, you know, sitcom funny guy actor
and it's like, no.
And then, you know, show business is always partly luck.
You know, Comedy Central is a new network.
They needed a show and I had a good idea for a show and then that's really, but I was
always meant to do what I'm doing.
It was a waste of me as an actor because I'm not that great an actor.
And I'm much better at this and it's much more unique.
And you know, I mean, they could get another guy
to play the office creep.
I was in TV Guide once on my first sitcom.
And it was like the show was premiering
and they had the four characters.
Gina Davis was the lead, became a big star.
Alfred Woodard, Bronson, Penn Show,
and a little thing under each of our
to tell the audience who we were.
And in under my name it said the office creep.
Because that was the character.
And it was good because that was the funny one.
The other ones, they didn't give the other ones
that funny lines.
They were just long.
Yeah, they were normal people, and I was the office creep. No, my film bar was off. Yeah, you can look it up. You can. That's so funny.
You can go go YouTube it. I will. And I will, but I get home. Get out your magic light box.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You have your magic light box with you. Sorry, I don't even know what is a magic phone. Oh, magic light box.
What I call the phone.
Okay, gosh.
Oh, it is.
See, it's right there.
You would never leave.
Yeah, it's right here.
I lose everything except my phone.
You don't call it the magic light box?
No.
Okay, wait.
So, what was the show you pitched to Comedy Central?
Was it the show?
Politically incorrect.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Great.
So yeah, there was some years there where it was like tough
because I was done with one form of my, you know,
as a snake shed at skin, not that I'm a snake.
Like caterpillar.
Let's pick something nicer.
Yeah, I became a butterfly, whatever.
But like, there was a time, and that happens in many careers, you know,
where you have a down point before you come back up, even Frank Sinatra, who was the biggest star in
the world as a singer in the forties, couldn't get arrested in 1950 and then he had a comeback,
you know, that's part of the plot of the godfather. Yeah know, they got them apart in the movie, you know.
Right.
And so...
Okay, so in that downfall of yours,
that's when you did the show with...
It was good that I did not...
It's good that I did not get on a sitcom that was ahead,
because then I would have been the office creep for a while.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally.
And maybe the audience would not have accepted me
as something, which is more like,
well, not more like it's exactly what I think.
Mm-hmm.
And who I am.
Right.
I mean, my whole,
but like your ability to evolve is what made you.
Well, my whole,
and also any successful person really always evolves
on what they do.
I hope.
I mean, my whole career and mindset
has been from the beginning.
The thing I really wanted to do is to get on camera
for the audience.
Exactly what talking to me is like in reality.
Because most of TV is just sickeningly fake.
Yeah.
You just want a gag. I do. I sickeningly fake. Yeah. You just want a gag.
I do.
I can't stand it.
Yeah.
And I get as pretty close on politically incorrect
and then real time.
You know, and that's, but like, I can't get closer than this.
Yeah.
Me getting drunk at my own house.
I can't. I love it. I cannot get closer. Yeah. Me getting drunk at my own house.
I love it. I cannot get closer.
It's been a lifelong struggle to get to this exact moment.
I love that for you.
Okay, so you like to kill as your favorite.
Did you ever like, is it your favorite?
Yes.
Nice. Me too. Hard out call. That's my favorite.
So, um, sorry.
So what are, how much, but you've seen like you're very much into health.
I mean, you look like you are because you look very healthy.
In COVID, I got like kind of, you know, I got into health and wellness.
And so I'm doing, I'm like following what the health and wellness community is doing.
Exactly what you should have done. You should. I'm doing what you should have done.
Exactly what you should have done.
So, mountain valley water.
The best way everybody could have projected themselves from having a bad result with
COVID was by getting in better health.
From better health, better shape.
When you're in good health to begin with.
And better mindset, too.
Well, mindset is part of your health.
And, uh, I was learning, I didn't even know this.
I was even taught in school that help.
Well, I learned in college, but, you know,
I just, I had no idea the negative effects
that stress has on your body too,
which is just so insane to me.
I'm a bit old.
And so, you know,
I can kill you.
Yeah, absolutely.
It could cause autoimmune disease
and cancer.
I mean, we're not.
Of course.
Well, it, I mean, you know, medicine is such a complex amalgam of factors like stress,
but also toxic pollutants that are around us, which are in everything.
It's in the food.
It's what you eat.
But yes.
It's in perfume, sentient.
It's in furniture.
Yeah.
I mean, we live in that kind of world.
And then there's factors we're not sure of.
I mean, electromagnetic energy.
I'm not sure the phone is great, having all that.
Oh, that's what I have.
All that electromagnetic energy.
This thing, I've found that on it.
It's supposed to like, block the ear.
You know what? That's called an amulet.
Yeah.
It's like a little thing you wear on your,
on your neck to ward off evil,
but it has no actual
effect. I know. I know. But that's what a lot of masking was during, not all. So, asking,
some masking was totally appropriate, but some of it was just an amulet. This is going to
ward off this evil, and it's like, you know what? So, are you, are you like dairy free or gluten free or do you change your diet?
Well gluten, I'm not sure.
That again, maybe one of those things that started in a book club.
Yeah, I mean, it's a real thing.
I just don't think it affects like nearly the numbers.
It's just one of those things that liberals boy, when they,
they want to jump on a, excuse me, I had the grabs for dinner. It's just one of those things that liberals boy when they
Jump on a Excuse me. I had the grabs for dinner. No, that was that was the chair
When they want a jump on some shit. Oh, they do but yeah like the basically it's bigger than gluten. I don't need bread
Oh, you don't bread is not good for you. I'm sure I hope we don't
have a bread sponsor for this show, but I don't think so. But I mean, at least that's what I think.
You know what? I'm not dispensing medical advice. Don't fucking flip your wigs even though
a lot of what I said, comedian, was more right than what the fucking, you know, official people said.
I said right from the beginning stress sugar sleep the three s's
there's a bug going around eat stop eating sugar get enough sleep don't stress they did exact
opposite lock themselves inside and over eight and then stayed up all night
look at the phone minds out about something that was yes a real thing and could be a dangerous thing,
but was hyperventilating was not necessary for most people.
Right. And no sign.
Yeah, traveling to Utah in the middle of the...
Like a lack of vitamin D.
Huge.
Huge.
You know, one of the things I said from the beginning, vitamin D, and now I just saw
there was a study that says, yes, most of the people who've been dying
from this COVID have been lacking in vitamin D.
Have you lost the birth?
It's not rocket science.
It's not like I'm a genius scientist who made that up.
I know doctors and I read stuff and it's like obvious.
Vitamin D is key and we're depriving ourselves of it with this.
Yeah, I actually, I recently did like a breath test
and a blood test just to see my levels
and I'm like severely deficient in vitamin D.
And I also heard about this other study
and not sure if it's true or not,
but there's this doctor that was talking about
how a lot of people aren't able to process vitamin D
from the sun. And so they actually
have to take supplements. But you need the sun to convert it. And the sun is not the enemy.
People have the demonized things in medicine these days. Well, it can give you, yes, of course,
anything you can over you can kill yourself drinking too much water. But you know, basically,
you need some sun. And it's a sun is not horrible for
you. And maybe some of the stuff that's in sun block is not great for you. I think I
saw that study recently again, one of those like what else don't you know? What else did
you get wrong? Stop looking at me with the white coat in the deathoscope, like when have we ever been wrong? All lost.
Just have some fucking humility about it.
Exactly, it's always been trial and error.
Damn it, yeah, have me yelling again.
All right, I have to, this was more fun
about a lot of luck.
This was so great, Bill.
I love talking with you.
We could go on for hours.

I really like millennials. Oh, yeah. Not the majority for hours. I mean, I'm the one for hours. I mean, I'm the one for hours. I mean, I'm the one for hours. I mean, I'm the one for hours.
