It's Vincent Price. I'm talking to you from heaven. Yes, that's it, heaven. You won't believe where Gene Rayburn keeps that long, skinny mic. Anyway, I just wanted to congratulate you on 400 episodes of the podcast. Although I hear all the good podcasts are available at Sears. Here's to 400 more! hi this is gilbert godfrey with my co-host Frank Santopadre, and this is another episode of Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast.

Well, they said it couldn't be done and that it would never last. Actually, the person saying that was me. But anyway, here we are, episode 400. I can't believe it. I'm exhausted. Are you sure we didn't start this show right after World War II? Weren't we doing this with the help of the GI Bill? I think so.

It feels like the first guest was Audie Murphy. It feels like the first guest was Audie Murphy. And we start the new season and episode 400 with an Audie Murphy reference. Hello, Gilbert. Well, that's what brings the kids to the show. It is indeed show 400. How is that even possible? I'm sick.

The show that had such humble beginnings in the pizza store. In the pizza store. Almost eight years ago to the day. I think it was actually March, so we're fudging a little. We sat at your kitchen table in your Chelsea apartment with Mr. Dick Cavett, not knowing what we were doing. I don't know that we still know what we're doing. Yeah. And trying this thing on for size,

and I personally didn't know we were going to go to 400 episodes in eight years. Did you? Yeah. Well, after our first one, and we were sitting in the pizza store. Yes. After, I thought, well, that was it. We tried, forget about it. Right.

Yeah, the first guest was kind of a bust, as we've pointed out numerous times on this show. The late, great professor. So Gilbert basically threw in the towel after one show. Yes. Dara and I comforted him with a calzone and said, let's try another guest.

Let's try somebody who can actually, someone who isn't 106. Yes. And lying under a heated blanket as we're interviewing him. And we called Dick Cavett. He came to Gilbert's apartment, and the rest is history. And here we are, surviving lockdowns and COVID. We survived Raybone.

Yes. And here we are, 4-0-0. Let's introduce our special. And Ray Bone is still looking for the answer to my question. Where did the film Casablanca take place? I talked to him last week. He's close. Let's introduce our special engineer for the evening, Rabbi, and yes, he is a rabbi.

You know him, you love him, David Komarowski. David. Hello, sirs. Thank you for doing this. It's my pleasure. I'm no Raybone. You're no Raybone. You've been a fan for a long time.

What was your gateway drug? What was your introductory episode? Do you remember? For some reason, Jackie Martling sticks in my head. That may have to do with a psychosis or it may have to do with this podcast. But it was early on. I got hooked. Jackie Mollo.

And Rabbi, our fans, our hardcore fans know the Rabbi because he runs our Patreon trivia nights. He's a clever fellow. I turned to him when I knew that we were going to be doing this show under lockdown. Gilbert, you may remember that we were going to be doing this episode in Sirius on January 6th, and then everything went for cocked. Oh, yeah. The whole world changed. How's my Yiddish, by the way?

Yeah. M whole world changed. How's my Yiddish, by the way? Yeah. Muzzle talk. So we are here in our apartments. My apartment in New York. Gilbert's down in Florida. The rabbi's somewhere in Ohio. We're doing it over Zoom. Nothing stops this show.

We're like the postal service. And we've got some goodies for you. We've got some surprise call-in guests. Gilbert doesn't even know who they are, do you, Gil? No, no. Because I don't take any interest in this show. Yes, we know that. We know that.

Which would lead me into my first segment. But before we do anything, Rabbi, we're going to do something we've never done in 400 shows. Because we have you a blessing, if you will. What do you think? All right, I'll give you a blessing. And this will be much less painful than your circumcision and a little shorter. Okay. I'm going to teach you a little bit of Torah, considering that probably three-quarters of the guests have been Jewish.

They'll understand. Gilbert, somebody else will explain to you later. Know that every, every Hebrew letter has a numerical value. So the first letter, Aleph is one and bed is two and so forth. And the numbers end with the last Hebrew letter tough. And that number just happens to be 400. That means from a Jewish perspective, this is it. After this episode, Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast is playing with the house's money. I see.

You have achieved the unimaginable. You have run out of numbers. Well, Kevin Pollack hung it up at 400. Maybe that's a sign. No, we want you to keep going. We want you to run this right into the ground. And because I am of the people- Well, we're trying very hard. because I am of the people. Well, we're trying very hard.

Because I am of the people. I think we've been doing a great job putting this into the ground. Absolutely. So you may know that one of my biggest fans was Paul Lind of Blessed Memory. So in his honor, I'm going to intone a little Hebrew and give you an interpretation of a classic blessing.

Baruch ata Adonai Eloheinu melech haolam, shecheyanu v'kiyamanu v'higiyanu lazman hazeh, which as Seth Saltzman will tell you, does not translate to. Blessings to all of the GGACP team, to Gilbert, to Frank, to Dara, to Genevieve, to all of their families and everyone who makes this magic happen for the last 400 episodes. We give thanks for life, for health, for having reached this milestone. May you grow old, but never grow up. Amen. Oh, I'm touched.

Gilbert, do you have a rebuttal in Hebrew? I would recommend not saying that on an airplane. This is the first show in 400 that's ever opened with a blessing. Thank you, Rabbi. Bless you. Gilbert, before our first surprise caller pops in, and we're going to spread people out. We're going to space people out through the show. Again, Gilbert has no knowledge. He's never actually even met any of these people that are going to call.

I have no knowledge and no intelligence. Exactly, and little interest. The rabbi and I came up with a little game that we like to call What Does Gilbert Know About His Own Show? Not Jack

Shit is the answer. Jack Shit is one of the people who will be calling in tonight. Okay, Gil. We're going to try out. Two things I fail embarrassingly miserable with are stuff about this show and Judaism. Those I failed on. Those are the only two things I do know. We should point out that the rabbi who was with us here was the man behind the Hanukkah quiz on the recent Christmas episode.

And Gilbert, you acquitted yourself so well. Gilbert, you're one of the world's greatest Italians. Okay, Gilbert. This is called Who Has Not Been a Guest on the Amazing Colossal Podcast. Uh-oh. Again, I say who has not been a guest of this grouping of names. I'm going to name someone we've had on five times. I'll start with an easy one.

Richard Marks, Richard Benjamin, Richard Dreyfuss, or Richard Donner? Richard Dreyfuss, or Richard Donner? Richard Dreyfuss. Very good. Yeah. Rabbi, do we have a little tacky game show music for this segment? Oh, of course. Let's see. What have we got?

My God. Excellent. He's one for one. That sounds like the theme song to every bad 80s sitcom ever. Yes. Okay, Gilbert. Who was not a guest on GGACP? This is an episode of How Well Does Gilbert Know His Own Show?

Steve Cox, Steve Winwood, Steve Stollier, Steve Binder. Who was not here? Steve Wynwood? Very good. Look at that. Look at that. Oh, my God. I'll take half a point.

Can we stop here? I'll take half a point because you said Wynwood, but that's okay. Oh, yeah. Holy mackerel. Rabbi in the part of Frank Verderosa tonight. Gilbert, who was not a guest on the show? David Yazbek, David Mandel, David Cross, or David Marienthal? David Marienthal? David Marienthal? I'm sorry, Gilbert.

Do we have a deflating sound? We don't have one of those kind of... David Marienthal. Can you run out and get a slide? No expense has been spared in preparation for Show for 100. David Marienthal is a filmmaker. He made a documentary about the famous Chicago club Mr. Kelly's. And he did a mini episode with us.

No, David Cross has not been here. Oh, okay. You seem to have a memory of a David Cross episode. Yes. That never took place. He was on episode 500. Excellent. He really was good.

Okay, Gilbert, who wasn't here? Judy Gold, Judy Collins, Julie Newmar, or Julie Haggerty? Judy Collins. Look at this. Three out of four four what do you think dave impressive impressive gilbert i thought you would do much worse yes it's not over that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me i love the david cross episode oh god we're going to do one other little quick bit of business before we let our first

guest into the room. And this is... I asked the staff, you know, you couldn't do this show really without help. It does take a village. We have Twitter people, we have Facebook people, we have Instagram people, we have a bona fide rabbi sitting here with us.

And I asked, Gilbert, your cell phone's going off. Yes, I know. It's David Cross and Judy Collins. It's David Cross. Book him. While we wait, while Gilbert turns his cell phone off. Yes, I turn the phone off. Is Don on his cell phone yes i turn the phone fucking ponderous i was watching a uh

i'll tell this story later i'll tell this later um We asked the staff, we asked them what their three favorite episodes were. And actually we took questions, we put questions out to Patreon people too and they wrote favorite episodes. But quickly, I wanted to go over this. You know what? Our first guest is here in the waiting room, so this is going to wait.

We'll bring it back. We'll do staff favorites. Why leave this man waiting gilbert is such a fan shall we let him in rabbi ladies and gentlemen an important contributor to this show the great gino salamone is here mr gino hello there uh yeah we've we've got a lot of people to talk to but but thank you for calling. Okay, let's move on to our next guest. Hello there.

Hello there. Hi, G. Okay, you said what you had to say. All right, so let's get the show going. Yeah, you know what? I know why you want me off, so you can tell my stories. Did I ever tell you about the time I met the kiddie show host, Big Lee? What happened, Gilbert? Tell us more.

Well, he asked me if I wanted to drink something. And I said, I don't drink. And he said, do you have an aversion to condolence so wow you know as marty allen once said gilbert you can't do that you know it's a perfect segue first of all welcome thanks for taking part in this it's an honor clearly well preparedpared 400th episode that we threw together in 20 minutes. Has he stolen all your stories? Almost. He did not tell a serious story, the Sidney Poitier story. Oh, perfect. Well, we just lost the great Mr. Poitier. Do you want to tell it?

Yes, I do want to tell it. So, Gilbert, write this down because you'll be stealing it. Yeah, let me get my pen. Okay. So, in 1986, Katharine Hepburn was hosting a tribute to Spencer Tracy on Broadway, and I was working part-time at UPS. I had no money, but it was a once- a lifetime thing. Sinatra, Jason Robards, Stanley Kramer, and the great Sidney Poitier. And I spent that money. I spent, ended up spending $2,500 to go out there for the show. And over the years, I love Mr. Poitier so much that I bought a bunch of posters from his movies. So about two years ago, I got in touch with his office and I said, you know, I have these posters. I'd like to send them. And I sent the posters to the office and I got this amazing card

back from Sidney and Joanna Portier. May I read it? Please. Okay. It says, dear Mr. Salamone, you have completely floored us with your gracious gift of reminders and memories of a career born out of determination and faith, much like your own. Your investment made on a part-time UPS salary so many years ago to attend a $2,500 tribute in honor of the great Spencer Tracy is clear proof of a person of faith and in tune with his instincts. May your courage and generosity of spirit continue to lead you to the desires of your heart. We thank you from the bottom of ours and wish you a healthy, happy new year. And I couldn't believe it.

It was so beautiful. So I went to put that card back in the envelope and there was something in the envelope. And I looked and there was a check for $2,500. Wow. Yes. So I sent it back. I couldn't accept it. Now, when I told Gilbert this story, of course, he asked that I send him the check.

Yeah. He doesn't want that. He doesn't want this story. He wants the twenty five. Yeah. I'll send it right to the audience. I just sent me. So I'll make sure it gets to them. Just check and don't say another word about it. You can know it's getting to their house. Gino, that is a sweet one. Well, so Mrs. Portier called me. She said, you have to make me happy. Accept this check.

Donate it to charity. So I picked two charities in Milwaukee and gave them each a check for $1,250 in Sydney's name. Classy. You couldn't add Gilbert's name to the bottom of it? I'm shocked that he didn't take credit for it, really. Well, did I ever tell you about the time there was a benefit for Catherine Hepburn and Frank Sinatra, Jason Robards, they're all going to be there. And and me being a tremendous fan of Sidney Poitier collected loads of posters. And and I sent him a letter and he said, dear Gilbert, it meant so much to me, your letter, that if you don't make any money and you're willing to spend $500.

I am so turned on right now. Frank, did I ever tell you about when my dad. Nice work, Rabbi. frank did i ever tell you about when my dad nice work rabbi i have a story well my father had his hardware store and he would sell these these airplane kits oh no i haven't heard this yes and because kids would buy him to snip the glue and then he would send me down the block i would pull the airplane kit out of the garbage and he would just resell it again. And shortly after, at the age of 15, I went with my sister and I started doing stand-up for the first time. Oh, but I understand you can't remember which club it was. I don't remember the club.

That's so strange, isn't it? Yeah. Let me ask you a question out of the blue. Has Jerry Lewis always been nice to you? You know what? I can say he was always nice to me. Tell me your three best stories. Land of Starfuckers. Land of Starfuckers.

Tell me your three top stories quickly that Gilbert has stolen. It happens almost every podcast where I hear him tell a story or like just recently with Sally Struthers and Frank, you were guilty too. So I bought and sent you both the DVD for the movie that thinks, uh, I thought better of you, Frank. I know it was just, better of you, Frank. I know it was just I can't do it on purpose. I can't do it on purpose. That's bullshit.

Frank and I were walking down the street and on a marquee said the Sphinx. And we said, hey, let's see this. Now, did you buy it out of the money that Sidney Poitier gave you?

Yes. Yes. That's because the tickets for it were $2,500 each. Unreal. Unreal. Gilbert, if you're going to. Luckily, Johnny Weissmuller sent me a check. If you're going to steal the story,

at least get the title of the movie right. And an extra check, extra checks were sent by Leo Garcia and Hunts Hall and Pat O'Brien. And Hunts Hall's cock. And then what I love too, when I work really hard at booking a guest, Gilbert says that he did it. He called the guest and asked them to be on.

Well, now that's crossing the line because we know that hasn't happened once. No. Dara has booked a few people. Yes, exactly. Yeah, we'll give credit where it's due. Yeah, poor Dara. We need a poor Dara sound booked a few people. Yes, exactly. Poor Dara. Give credit where it's due. Yeah, poor Dara. We need a poor Dara soundbite that we can just play on a loop. But, yeah, somebody, one of the listeners wrote in and said,

let me see if I can find this. Talk amongst yourselves. Somebody wrote in and said, who were you most disappointed that Gilbert could not book or would not book uh uh and i it's there's too many to name i would say number one for me is mel brooks if he called mel brooks mel brooks would be on this show but he won't do it look at him look at Well, you don't have to rush. He's only 97. Is he only 97? Oh, speaking of that, I'll find that question later.

I have another Sidney Poitier story. Now, I know this sounds bizarre, but Sidney Poitier was best man at Marty Allen's wedding. He introduced Marty to his wife. So Marty was turning, I think, 92 and they'd kind of lost touch. And I happened to find the phone number for Sidney Poitier's office. And I call it and that voice unmistakable answers the phone. And I can't believe that it's really Sidney Poitier. So I said, listen, I'm a friend of Marty Allen's. It's a thrill to talk to you. I said, Marty is turning 92 today. And I'm wondering if you could give him a call. And Sidney said, I will call him immediately. And he did. And they got back in touch. Wow. Yes. See, Gino, you're an ambassador. You're a show business ambassador. See, to me, he sounds like a Martian taking over the planet. Like, I will take over your planet immediately.

Your puny weapons cannot stop us. We will kill you immediately. We learned to speak English from intercepting your radio waves immediately. In the original, guess who's coming to dinner? He takes out a phaser and he shoots Catherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy. Yeah. And Marty Allen was the original incorrigible student in To Serve With Love. But he was 72 at the time. And that's that line

that I said earlier about Marty. Sweet Marty Allen. Fantastic Marty Allen. I had a bike accident and I told Marty, he goes, Gino, you can't do that anymore. He didn't want me to ride the bike. He was so concerned about me.

He wanted to watch over you. Exactly. I think Sidney Poitier and Marty Allen may be the strangest pairing since Brando and Wally Cox. Yeah. But what a great. Da-da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da-da.

Well, how about Midnight Run remade with those two? I'm totally in. Oh, wait, wait. Now I'm getting a total fucking mental block. The one with Sidney Poitier. The defiant ones. The defiant ones.

Sidney Poitier and Hardy Alleniant ones. The defiant ones. Sidney Poitier. After 400 shows, I read his mind after 400 shows. Do you want to retell that wonderful Adam West story? Oh, sure. The one where you mentioned the bomb? Yeah, I'll do it. Please, please, you've tired yourself out enough. Go ahead, Gilbert. please please you've tired yourself out enough go ahead well adam west uh few people know this played batman on tv

all right frank what happened was that i had booked adam for appearances over the years and he knew i would come to la let's let's recap for our audience that you used to book nostalgia shows and autograph shows that's right that's right and uh he called me one day and he said when are you coming to la i said i'm actually coming this weekend he said well i need to talk to you can we meet up so he came over to the Four Seasons Hotel we sat down and you never forget the fact that that's Bruce Wayne across from you you know he sounds just like it he looks like it yeah and he said Gino I have a problem I need you to help me with and you know it's Adam West of course anything you need he said my son is being picked on at college and I need you to send some guys there to scare the guys that are picking on my son.

I love that story. Well, and again, why you? Cause I'm Italian. That's it. And we got to do it clean. Okay. It can't come back to me. All right. What did you say in response? I said, Adam, I would love to help you, but I just don't know anyone that could do that.

That could go there. There are two college students. Unbelievable. I want them gone. Okay. I want them gone. Okay. I want all of them gone. I want them dead. I want their families dead.

I want their house burned to the ground. Gorshin was still alive. He couldn't put on the leotard and go scare them. Gorshin chain smoked so badly. I know. He couldn't do the voice anymore. I know. The Riddler laughed. Poor guy. Poor guy.

That's another guy like Carson and some of those other guys who smoked himself into an early grave. Right. Well, I think my time is up here, but, you know, like all great shows, like the Match Game or whatever, we have a poem from Nipsey Russell.

Oh, do we? we yes are you ready wow okay an extra treat okay and let me say i'm not doing anything except an impression of nipsey russell all right yeah you're not called you're not culturally appropriating i'm not doing that okay are you ready you see nipsey yeah you see him being g? Yes. Being Gilbert's friend's not easy. It's not even very nice. Because Gilbert is Romero's ass and I'm an orange slice. Gilbert is so lazy. A good for nothing jerk.

He sits there and does nothing while Frank does all the work. Frank's the leader of the show. He's well read and he's able. Gilbert's the piece of shit that sits on Danny's coffee table The show can be so hilarious In fact it's downright magic And when things are really funny

Gilbert brings up something tragic Almost done My girl Sandra Bullock Take it for what it's worth Almost done. That he does. My girl, Sandra Bullock, take it for what it's worth. She said she'd only have sex with Gilbert if he was the last man left on Earth. And Diane Cannon laughs at Gilbert. She cackles hard with glee. But even she is sick of hearing Jerry Lewis was always nice to me.

The 400 shows are in the books and before this poem is through, I need to use Gilbert's words when I say oh, thank you. Oh, that was, I got a tear. Thank you. I got a tear running down. I felt like Nipsey was in the room yeah wait we need your horrible

he's awful he's awful he is horrible he is horrible I end with that Diane Cannon said it best Frank you are the engine that makes this show go you are too kind

Dara is the amazing cohort and Gilbert and co-creator and Gilbert I can't-creator. Co-creator and Gilbert. I can't think of anything that you do. He's riding the train like the Defiant Ones. Okay, well, I think Diane

Cannon said it best about me. He is horrible. He is horrible. You are brilliant. I don't need to hear that ever again. Salamone, you are a saint. love you dearly love you guys you've been you've been part of this from the very beginning thank god come that's coming from an atheist for the people that don't know gino has booked many many guests on this show most recently gabe caplan which was a

I know many people like me that don't hear it on SiriusXM, but on Monday, that is a ritual in all our lives. Just appreciate you both very much. You are too sweet, man.

By the way, Nipsey Russell, underrated as the Tin Man, Gilbert. Oh, that's right. Some of his best work. Our next guest has a poem from Rod McEwen. But before we get to that, I just want to read the staff favorites because it gives me an opportunity to thank the people who helped make this show go. We'll start with Rabbi David because he's here. I asked him his three favorite episodes. start with rabbi david because he's here i asked him his three favorite episodes and he said and these are these in any order david uh bill persky bob einstein and richard kind they're first they're

they're all jews yeah thank you for pointing that out as well you have the same rating system that i have yes oh it's to you okay he's good i assume you mean first persky episode and first richard So you have the same rating system that I have. Yes. Oh, is he a Jew? Okay, he's good. I assume you mean first Persky episode and first Richard Kind episode? It's the same stories every time. I can't tell. Okay. And Michelle, who does, Michelle Mantignan, who very, very ably and very creatively runs our Facebook page.

Her favorites are Alan Alda. That was a good one, Gil. The first Bob Costas episode in the Friars Club. Hysterical. One of my favorites. She said she fell off her bike listening to that one. And the Arkans, which I think is one of my favorite episodes that we did under lockdown.

Great episode. Alan and Adam Arkin. Yeah, that was a terrific show, and Adam made a nice call to my house. And that's the one where Adam got in touch with you. He did. He called me to thank me and said, I never heard some of those stories from my dad,

and that was a real gift. That was a Father's Day show, and we'll keep that tradition going. And Josh Chambers, who creates the newsletter for patreon and does all kinds of things he does the great art for the trivia nights that we do and is our twitter master if you love the twitter page it's josh um and his favorites are uh the sunny fox show also a great one great one of your favorites gil powerful one yeah very powerful uh the mario

christmas episodes i don't know he didn't pick one and of course bob einstein which i think would which is at the top of most people's list yes we will return to gilbert godfrey's amazing colossal Colossal podcast after this. Without further ado, we're going to usher our next guest into the room. Again, Gilbert has no idea who's coming up, but will you sign in, mystery guest? Hey, who are you? Drew Friedman. Drew Friedman?

Drew Dots. Drew Dots. Drew Dots. Yeah. Drew Dots. Jew Dots. Jew Dots. Yeah. Jew Dots is here. I didn't mean to call you guys. I don't know how that happened. How are you, Drew?

Fine, fine. Well, I guess we're in mourning again today, right? Well, who did we lose today? I'm afraid to look. All right. Well, Ronnie Spector. Ronnie Spector. Yes.

Yes. Yes. She was on my list, too. This has been quite a year so far, right? Quite a year. Yeah. Well, we're getting to that age where there are just going to be more and more of them. Yeah, I guess so.

I guess so. Yeah, yeah. Absolutely true. Your contemporaries start to go. She was 78, and I'm thinking, that doesn't sound very old. You know, yes, that's when you know you're getting older. When 78, she was a teenager, for God's sake. Well, she's like one of these celebrities, you know, you just thought of as a young, young person, you know, sort of like Peter Bogdanovich. You always thought of him as a young guy, not as an old timer. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Peter was only 82,

you know, only 82. That sounds, you know, like just kind of right around the corner now for, for, for us, isn't it? Well, my mom is 94. So, you know, everything is perspective. Everybody, everybody seems young to me. God bless you. Well, Betty White made it to 99. That's pretty impressive, right? She did. She did. Hard to feel sorry. Gino was just here, and he was telling a story about the speaking of people we just lost. And we certainly will talk about Bob in a minute, who we haven't mentioned yet. But we will get to that. But Sidney Poitier, Gino told a lovely story about Sidney Poitier and his wife. You have a Sidney Poitier story as well.

I don't know much of a story, but, you know, Sidney Poitier, you read his obituaries and a few of them said, you know, I bet you didn't know that Sidney Poitier directed Stir Crazy. So, you know, I found that surprising because, you know, I've known that for 40 years. Stir Crazy was written by my dad and he didn't necessarily work directly with Sidney, although they talked on the phone a few times. The late, great Bruce J. Friedman for our listeners. Right. So that was in 1980. And I was living with my dad at the time. So Sidney called once my dad was out. And I picked up. And he was very cordial, but very formal. He said, hello, is Bruce Friedman there? I said, no, this is his son. He'll be back soon. That was basically it. Nothing. Nothing surprising. So that's my Sidney Poitier encounter.

And if we had had Sidney Poitier on the show, I could have asked him about working with Lon Chaney Jr. going to bring that up. Oh, very good. The Defiant Ones, which is one of my favorite films with Sidney Poitier, had Tony Curtis with a fake nose on because they originally was supposed to be Marlon Brando in that part, but he turned it down. Lon Chaney played the sheriff, right, Gilbert? Yeah, I think they called him Big Sam. It was a hunting party. No, no, he was one of the convicts. The sheriff was Theodore Bacall. Oh, you're absolutely right. And you remember who worked for the sheriff, who was, I think, always whistling throughout the film? It was his last role in a movie.

Carl Alfalfa Schweitzer. Oh, my God. How about that? And an old Jew taught Sidney Poitier how to read. That's a great story. I just saw that and I didn't know it. Yeah. He said he was working as a busboy and there was an old Jew there. He brought over a newspaper and he said, can you tell me what's in the news?

And Sidney Poitier had to confess he couldn't read. And he said that this old Jew, after work, after they were through and everyone went home, he would teach him the alphabet, words and everything. Yeah, that was lovely. That was lovely. Who was that old Jew? Did he ever disclose his name or anything? Lou Jacoby. It was lovely to read. Who was that old Jew? Did he ever disclose his name or anything? Lou Jacoby. Lou Jacoby. Wow, terrific.

He was Alan King. I think what you're reading gives you too much cholesterol. Al Lewis. Lou Jacoby by way of Billy West. Your father wrote Stir Crazy. You told me he was not terribly pleased with the film, but he was pleased with the check. No, because you know how the movie business works.

Of course, if you're a writer, you just you serve up your script and you disappear. So my dad wasn't really involved in the process of the film, although he got to know Richard Pryor, Gene Wilder. He had known Gene Wilder already, but he served up the script. And then all of a sudden, Sidney Poitier had added another writer to the script a friend of his named Charles Blackwell who was this old out of work African-American writer you know who was like down on his luck and Sidney to I guess to his credit that like I'm going to help out this guy my old friend here and and he gave him a co-credit on the stir crazy script because he you know he added some lines and some jokes but the writer it went before the writers guild and they said no no no bruce j friedman this is his script and he he got the sole credit after all and my dad was like uh frank you had asked me uh how my dad liked the film

i'm not sure he was that crazy about the movie but he certainly liked the uh the checks he got from you know after became a blockbuster hit. That was a nice thing. Well, you also told me that of the adaptations of his work that was turned into films, that The Heartbreak Kid, which is turning 50 this year, was probably the most successful as far as he was concerned. I think he was happiest with that. That really was true to his short story.

Also, his tone in his writing. Neil Simon famously said, famous to me anyway, in an interview with Film Comet, that he wrote that as if he was Bruce J. Friedman. And you kind of get that sense when you see that film. It's really there. Yeah. And Elaine May seemed like she was protective of your dad's work. I think so. Yeah. She picked up on the short story originally. And then, you know, she was protective of the screenplay as well. And they didn't veer. I think there was Yeah. She picked up on the short story originally. And then, you know, she was protective of the screenplay as well. And they didn't veer. I think there was a little bit of ad libbing like any film.

And she she was open to improvising, but they stuck to the script. And my dad was happy with that one, you know, and he was happy with Splash as well, for the most part. But, you know, you make it you kind of make a deal with the devil when you're a writer and you're working with Hollywood. So what about his work on problem child too? Why did you appear in problem child too? Because Chico needs the money. Thank you. I've always wondered. Are we sure it was Chico who needed the money?

Now you touched on Bogdanovich and we were, we were talking on the phone and you met Peter at a party thrown by our pal, our pal Larry Karaszewski. Well, this was four years ago and it was, I'll set this up because it's interesting. It was out in Hollywood at Larry's house. He threw a party for Kathy and I and my new book, Drew Friedman's chosen people. So, you know, Which Gilbert and I and my new book, Drew Friedman's Chosen People.

So, you know, they Gilbert and I are in I'd like to point out. Yes, Gilbert and two portraits of Gilbert in that book. And one of you. Yes. A lot of people. But they do that in Hollywood. They do that in New York. They throw parties at their homes and they have the books for sale. So Larry did that for us, which was very nice. But then, you know, at the party, I'm just going to, the party became a who's who of Gilbert Gottfried podcast guests. And I have a partial list. Oh, do tell.

Well, Larry, of course, and Scott Alexander, Leonard Morton, Cliff Nesta-Floyvin. Oh! Cliff Nesta-Floyvin. Nesta-Floyvin. Drew, what is it?

Cliff Nesta-Floyvin. Niven-Floyvin. Crissel-Floyvin. Nesta, Drew, what is it? Cliff Lester. Niven, Flavin. Crystal, Favin. Niven, Davin, babe. Favin, hi. Also, Lorraine Newman was there. Oh, she's the best. Chris, Cliff Nesta, Favin.

Chris Nesta, Flavin. Gil, how are we not at this party? Well, it was in Hollywood You guys were in New York I know I love Larry Scott Dana Gould was there Stephen Webber was there Wow

Midway through the party In walks Peter Bogdanovich You know, who I had never met And he's wearing his ascot Right? So I go up to say hi to him. Larry introduces me and he starts thumbing through my book and he gets to Mel Brooks. He said, oh, Mel Brooks. I knew Bill. I know Mel Brooks. He's a very, very funny man. Very funny man. And he gets to Elaine May. Elaine May. Oh, she's so, you know, when she was doing

Heartbreak Kid, Sybil, I was dating Sybil. So I was always on the set, you know when she was doing heartbreak kid uh sybil i was dating sybil so i was always on the set you know with the heartbreak kid then he gets to another drawing in the book and he says jerry jerry lewis oh you know he's a good friend of mine i just talked to him last week i said uh well thanks peter but that's not actually jerry. That's Sammy Petrillo. So he looks at me and he looks back at the drawing and he looks back at me. He doesn't smile. Right. So he says, Sammy Petrillo did the very best impression of Jerry Lewis. In fact, it was so good that I thought your drawing was Jerry Lewis. I said, so that's very nice. Thank you. So I wanted to ask him about Boris Karloff.

I wanted to ask. So I, you know, I told him I love targets. And that's a good one. Yeah. The two parallel stories, how he did that, how he linked them the the the sniper and the old horror movie actor so i said you know i have a question about karloff i was always curious about he goes yes he goes what did boris karloff smell like so he looks at me just to see if i'm smiling and i'm not so i guess he wanted to know if i was being facetious and I wasn't. So he pauses a long pause and he looks, he looks, he looks down, he looks up at me, he goes, uh, Boris Karloff. He smelled like British Sterling, which is a spicy lavender and an,

with an Amber fragrance and with just a hint of sandalwood. All right. I love that. Now we know. Those are all items Gilbert has stolen from hotels. Yes. Everything you just listed. You know, at this point in my life,

I'm just curious about how celebrities smell. You know, it comes down to that. You know, he's been asked all these questions about these people, but I doubt anybody's asked him how anybody smelled. So I love that on the subject of Jerry. What do we make of this? And Gilbert, you've seen the picture floating around of Jerry and Dean in the shower. Yes, I think I sent it to Gilbert. OK, so that's where it originated.

Quite, quite frightening. There's actually a few of them, and they're pretty explicit. Some of them. Yeah. I mean, they're in the shower together, the two of them, and they're lathering up their penises in some shots. And it's like,

I don't mind hearing them talk about the love between them, but I don't want to see talk about the love between them, but I don't want to see that. Oh, you're sober. Obviously, they were even closer than we thought. Yes. And, you know, the strange thing is, like,

these photos were taken when they were at the height of their career. It's weird. The kings of show business. How did they allow that to happen yes didn't they for a second think like you know maybe this is not such a great idea what's the origin do we know who took the shots what the story is behind what i've heard is that they were like i said there's a bunch of shots and they're all in the shower in the steam room but they're naked completely naked some shots there's some other guys sitting with them and whatnot.

Supposedly, Jerry's driver at the time, who passed away, I guess, recently, he was a photographer, too, and he took these photos, and then somehow these photos got up on eBay, and then of course, people instantly sent them to me. They're all gone now, I think, if you look for them.

So I shared them with a few folks, including know, including you guys. Yeah. That's all I know about them, really. Very disturbing. So, Gilbert, you don't want to see a comedy duo naked soaping each other up. What about Burns and Schreiber? That I'd pay for.

How about Mitzi McCall and Charlie Brill? Yeah. How about Willie Tyler and Lester? You know, even Sammy Petrillo and Duke Mitchell, I don't even think they sunk that low, you know? I told you, my dad knew Duke Mitchell well. I think I knew that, yeah. From my dad's neighborhood, East New York.

Wow. He knew, he knew Vince Edwards too, but that's, that's, that's for another show. What, what else did you and, and, and the late great Peter talk about? Well, that's basically it. We talked to him, you know, I didn't want to ask him the same questions that everybody, everybody does because you know, he's, he's incredible. He's a great raconteur and whatnot. He has these amazing stories. Great impressions, too. Yeah. And his impressions are that Jimmy Stewart is like, oh, Walter Brennan, Harry Grant is Orson Welles. And, you know, but I didn't want to, like, go there and like, OK, well, it was this one like and whatnot.

So, you know, I kind of left him alone. He had a young lady with him, a tall blonde. And, you know, he was like he but he was having a nice time. He's circling around the party and it was just nice to meet him and stuff. But, you know, it was sad to lose him. Also sad to lose Bob Saget this week, who I did not know. I know you guys knew him. We Gilbert knew better than I did. But yeah, a terrible loss. Funny, crazy guy. He was great.

I love I loved him. I thought he was great in the aristocrats i think he's a brilliant comedian i've never seen either one of those tv shows he was on uh one was called full house right and then there was a show with videos of america's funniest videos and he was yeah he was the narrator on How I Met Your Mother. Right. Okay. Right. Yeah.

He did a lot of stuff. I mean, he was virtually a game show host. I mean, he did a lot of things. He was a good writer. To me, the most fascinating thing about him was that he actually, as a teenager, went out to visit Larry Fine at the old motion picture home. Yeah, that picture has recently turned up. Yeah, I never knew that.

I know a few people did that, and I still bad. I never did that, too, because I was out in Los Angeles then. Was that the picture when they were in the shower? That's the one. But Larry was in his wheelchair. And, you know, I feel bad about that. But, Frank, you actually went to Curly Joe's funeral and nobody can top that i did and i gave tom leopold the mask card yeah and he reacted as if i had handed him the ark of the covenant oh yeah he has that frame so happy yeah there was no greater gift that i could give him i think i gave him a pair of pinky lee's shoelaces well frank did did you did you climb into the into the casket with him? I did not.

I was not a Dorita guy. I would have climbed in with Besser. Didn't Mark Newgarden encourage you to crawl in the basket just for a photo op? I haven't told this story since the Steve Cox episode, but I was living in the Valley hand to mouth writing Saturday morning cartoon shows. And Mark Newgarden, an old friend of Drew's and mine and the co-creator of garbage, pale kids and many other interesting things called me on the phone. And he was so excited to learn that they, that Joe Dorita's wake was being held mere blocks away in the bowels of the

San Fernando Valley on 112 degree day. And we got into my car and drove there. And it was a sad state. I mean, there was, I told you there were, there were three or four guys in the back of the row wearing stooge, back of the room wearing stooge shirts. Yeah. You told me there were a couple of garden.

I thought they were. Hispanic gardeners. I thought they were guys that worked. I thought they were guys that worked on the premises that they brought in because they didn't have enough people in the room. Well, that's a beautiful Hollywood memory to have. When I was a kid. I was watching TV with my son just a day ago,

and they had on one of the full-length Three Stooges movies. I guess Three Stooges in outer space or. Yeah, well, around the world in a day is maybe. Oh, maybe maybe that's it. And to show the cheapness of it, it's like they're in a time machine. And then you have footage of like Indians on horses. So, you know, like this, they just had that in the film library and and there was you didn't have to pay for it. So, OK, we'll have that. And then you had

gladiators and they go, OK, this is free, too. And and my my son asked who that third stooge was. And how do you explain Curly Joe DeRita? There is a way to explain it. Some people really think that that's Curly just got old and fat and sick and untalented. It happens. If people want to think that, that's fine. Tell us what's going on with your doc quick, because we got two more people that are coming into the room. Gotcha. In a moment.

Made by the great Kevin Dougherty, our mutual friend. Yeah, Kevin Dougherty's film. He's working on it. He checked in with me today, and he said that it's really, really coming along, and it should be out this year. And Shout Factory is behind it. Good.

And, you know he keeps showing you know i'm not involved in the film in the making of the film but he keeps showing me clips and i'm really impressed with what he's showing me like some of the interviews he has lined up he just showed me uh his interview with mike judge and with mark maron and great he's really doing a dynamite job on it so i'm really happy and people say like so what's taking he's been working on it for five years now. And I keep reminding people, well, Terry Zweigoff took 10 years to make the Crumb documentary. So Kevin's only halfway there.

Oh, glad you brought up Terry. Because Terry was a special episode. And we have you to thank for it. Well, that was just like a no-brainer. Thank you. Terry was a friend. And he's a huge fan of the podcast. So I'm glad that happened. Well, Gilbert had one of his great moments.

You got to read the anti-Semitic film review, Gilbert. That was fantastic. From Terry. I'd say it's one of the highlights in the history of this show. He could he could he could die happy after that. He loved it so much. And and there was one part out of that review that had to be edited. Yes. That shows how bad things were going in that review. Yes, it was. That's a bleep at one point.

Somebody wrote on Facebook, I've seen it all. I've now heard Gilbert Gottfried bleeped on his own podcast. What's happening with your next book project? Oh, my next book, this is my pandemic book, I guess, that I've been working on for two years. It's an illustrated

tribute to underground cartoonists like Robert Crumb, S. Clay Wilson, Robert Williams. That's coming out later this year with an introduction by Mark Maron. So, again, that'll be out later this year. Hardcover. And hopefully there'll be book signings for it. You know, when this horseshit is over, let's fingers crossed. We'll come back and promote it.

And you before you go, you inhaled one of Marlon Brando's farts once, I think. That's a long story. Was Richard Pryor present? No, but, you know, I had the sense to stand back about 20 feet. But I heard if you inhaled Marlon Brando's farts, you become a great actor. inhale Marlon Brando's farts, you become a great actor. I stay back about 20 feet, but I heard them. I heard

them. Echoing up and down Sunset Strip. Yeah, but why did you allow Frances Bavier's cats to eat her corpse? Because I just did a spit take.

Because Chico needs some money that explains it that explains it you know Gino brought a tear in the last segment and now my other eye is tearing Drew thanks for making the time kiddo thanks for the help with the bookings

thanks for being a friend, kiddo. Thanks for the help with the bookings. Thanks for being a friend to this show. Congratulations on 400 episodes. That's pretty amazing. Come back and plug the book in the dock when the time is ready. Bring Kevin with you. No, never. I never want to see you guys again.

Okay. Love to Kathy. I'm sorry that Gilbert spent so much time on your couch. Happy memories. Are they really? We love you. Thank you, buddy. Talk soon. Bye-bye.

See you soon. All right. It's you, Dutz. Who were the next victims, Mr. Komarowski? We have two people. Let's let them in. And Gilbert has no idea. He's going to be surprised, Gilbert.

Can I take off the eye mask now? Take off the mask. Can you see those names? Look at this. Why, it's Steven Weber andber and craig b erico where did i get the dutch angle weber what's why are you dutch angling at 60 because i'm a batman villain that's right he's the puzzler i'm the clock i'm clock king clock king i love it a walter slazak reference walter slazak hi boys has walter slazak reference. Walter Slazak. Hi, boys.

Has Walter Slazak ever been on your show? Oh, we had him twice. And Craig, you're allegedly proud of your Jewish heritage. I knew he was going there. Whose mother are you? Whose mother are you? Who is this woman? Who's this woman? Who's this woman?

That's Linda Hunt. Gil couldn't do this show? No, but seriously, it's good to see Stephen Webber. It's mildly great to see Gil. How are you? Say hello to the rabbi, guys. This is Rabbi David, who's kept you in that waiting room. Hi, Rabbi.

Hello, Rabbi David. Hello. And oddly enough, the rabbi is ashamed of his Jewish heritage. Is that right? Go figure that one out. We talked on the phone, and you said, and I said, because I've been to your house, and I've seen the Richard Kind doll. I've put it up on Facebook. Have you seen it, Steve?

Oh, Steve, was that your gift to him? I fucking made it, motherfucker. You made that doll? I've put it up on Facebook. Have you seen it, Steve? Oh, Steve, was that your gift to him? I fucking made it, motherfucker. You made that doll? I made it. I'm the one. He never credited you. Let me tell you the story. Quick story. I made it as a...

Yeah, there it is. Oh my goodness. I made it because I had an ulterior motive. My motive, this is years ago. Look at the envy on his face. That looks like a photo. That's how good that is.

Really great. You could draw without taking the pen off the paper. It's really easy. You just have to draw a line for the mouth. So, wait, just a quick story, because I know there's so many guests on this show so you gotta

What a great anniversary Zoom Look at this fucking road gallery Who was before us? Gil Hodges Go, go, go Esther Rolle was right before you I made another doll of her I have an Esther Rolle doll of her i have an ester roll doll of

her too again you just take her are you kidding do you really see we gotta go into business all right so so what happened was i i wanted uh okay i was going to a wedding in lake como this is a long time ago maybe i don't know 17 years ago 50. And my mother was coming with us and I wanted to find a way to have my mother meet George Clooney. And I thought, and I'd only met him briefly during the ER Wings crossover. Okay.

And I thought, okay, I really thought this through. I'm going to make something that his group, his motorcycle buddies, Richard Kind being one of them, I think he's in a sidecar, I think. And so I thought, I'm going to make something that becomes the talk of the group. And then I'll be kind of, I'll include- Clooney adjacent. What? You'll be Clooney adjacent. That's right. Clooney adjacent, yeah.

Clooney adjacent. I'll be Clooney adjacent. So I actually decided I was going to make a doll that I would give to Richard at a birthday party. And I would invite George Clooney because it was going to be, I don't know, Richard's 50th or whatever it is. Right. because it was going to be, I don't know, Richard's 50th, whatever it is. Right.

And so the person who helped me, and I asked every prop guy that I ever met, they were all totally flummoxed. They didn't know about toy makers or how to do this, so I wanted to make a bunch of them. Who did I find? I found Stamos. Stamos.

And Stamos knows everybody. Wow. And he knew a goddamn toy maker, like there's any toy makers around? Yeah, I know a toy maker in Florida. He knows a fucking toy maker. Don't ask me why he knows a toy maker. You got a car that flies, you're gonna need a car that flies. That's right. Why do you have a toy maker? You know, in case I need to give

someone a toy. Right? Okay. So, he hooks me up with this guy. I make this drawing. He makes 25 of these goddamn things. And I even inserted a little voice thing in it. It doesn't work anymore. And I thought, this is great. I can't believe it.

The party never happened. Nobody wanted to come to his party. They were all out of town. So then I was left for a couple of years with Richard Kind dolls. And plus, I didn't want to tell Richard that I made these dolls. He'll think I'm insane. Finally, I said, I spilled it all. I gave him a doll.

And then pretty soon, people started finding out about it. Craig, other people. And I was giving out dolls. And that's how I made this doll. So I made a Richard Kind doll. And about, I guess, 25 people have them. There's no more. I'm sorry. I don't have. Wow. Well, you should do the 25th anniversary commemorative edition.

And I know somebody I can't remember who it was, but somebody recharged their battery. I don't know that. Yeah, because I made and there were four sayings or three sayings that he famously said, like, I did it twice. And then one that I think Craig actually, I'm crediting you. You actually told me you made up something that he would have said, which is, for a guy who works out so much, you don't look so good. And so I report. And Greg, you did tell me that. When you were on the show, you were terrible. I say it because I've seen you be great.

And Craig, can you do Richard Kine bragging about his friendship with George Clooney? When I first, I met him when he was just George Clooney, mind you.

You mind it. And we used to go out, oh, to Humphrey Yogurt. And he would be so funny. They'd say, what do you want for your flavor? And he'd say, chocolate. But it was his way. The way he said it. And I just, we would drive about it oh the women oh oh the women

in all fairness yesterday and rexall i was masturbating in rexall did you say you were masturbating in Rexall? In Rexall. And some woman came up and recognized me, and I reached to get a pen, and she said, is that right? And I said, no, and I followed her in my pants around my ankles to her car. I chased her down Beverly, but she got it. In all fairness, I invited Richard to take part in this.

He could have been here defending himself, but he's on a golf course. He doesn't have to appear anymore. There are 45 of them. It's like, it's like. He's on a golf course in Hawaii. It's like March of the Wooden Soldiers. He's out enjoying his life and we're making party appearances as him. Exactly. By the way, Craig, Dave Thomas says he's a big fan of yours.

Oh, wow. And would like to meet you. Oh, I would love that. A peerless Bob Hope. Don't you think Gilbert? The best Bob Hope anywhere. Did you make him do the Kris Kringle? What was what's the thing? The one that you're Jack Frost. Did you have him step into like

90 year old hope in the hyperbaric chamber? Did you do hope's bloody eyes? Oh, yeah. Oh, God. Yes, he had those those eyes that were like red nail polish. Blood eyes. Yeah, that was scary at the end.

Him with soup. There's a picture of Bob Hope eating soup with like divorce. Oh, God. Encouraging him to eat soup. And he's just like... And it literally looks like lids have been flipped inside out. You know what Dana Gould said when he was on the young comedian

special and bob put his arm around him for a photo op you know that line he said it was like holding a sweater filled with light bulbs a line we like very much here at the ggacp no i bring up langella uh steve because gilbert is notorious for having heroes meeting them and then never following up when they when they introduce themselves uh mr carlin comes to mind and i don't mean jack riley from the bob newhart show right but uh he walked around for years with george carlin's number in his i bet i know i i what what why over why and i had his number and i had jonathan winter's number i don't know another one and norman feld's number and i because i told you him i would have called if i had to move

the few times he would have called norman fell for a ride to JFK. A few times I would call a celebrity and it would be a celebrity I'd met and we just hit it off great. And then it's kind of like, you know, when you get a girl's number and she's like, oh, call me, call me. Make sure. Can you read that number? Call me. Call me. Don't lose that. Call me right away. And then you call her and it's like, hi, it's Gilbert. Oh, yeah. Hi.

I was friends with Ed Asner. You know, I say I was friends with him. We had lunch a few times, but I always felt like we loved him. I got Ed Asner's number in here. What am I going to do? We're going to hang out with him. We're going to go to the track, you know, the dog track. What am I going to do?

Hang out, go to his house. When I was doing Music Man, Rebecca Luke, rest her soul, knew Tony Randall and Tony Randall came to the show and stood up, stood up at the end of the first act. That's a show. That's a show. Like something like that. I was so happy i said i they're a bigger fan of of him you'll

never find and uh she said let me get up i'll have him seven o'clock in the morning which you don't do when somebody's doing a show it's seven o'clock in the morning craig yes 20 randall and i went of course of course who else before the sun breaks, who else? I'm going to Fire Island for the summer. But when I come back, I'd like to have lunch. Are you up for it? I said, yes. I think I saluted and put the phone down and I never called him because I didn't. I would I I could talk to him about anything he's done. But what kind of conversation? How did you come up with the dropping the mid, like, you know, midget, say midget. That's right.

Yeah, that's a great one. It's hard to get out of fanboy mode. On the subject of pinching yourself in Heroes, Steve, you're mentioned in Mel Brooks' new memoir, and that had to be a kick. That was a good one. That was a good one. That was a good one. I mean, and look, you know, Craig and I, like we both auditioned for Dracula Dead and Loving It, which is, you know, not his best film. No, it's really not.

It's in the lower two-thirds. That's like Zeus. Not your best Thunderbolt. Not your best Thunderbolt. Not your best Thunderbolt. But look, I mean, I pinch myself about that all the time. Oh, and that's an example. Maybe I'm just outing myself here. That's an example of a guy whose phone number I have, who I look at, and I keep thinking, I should call Mel.

What am I going to say to him? He's 90 million years old. I'll tell you what you say. Craig's flying out. That's right. He's in the car. Yeah. I mean, I had a great moment with him.

Look, again, I realized. Oh, that was terrific. Tell this story. Well, I don't know what you're going to say, but I'll tell you, but, uh, but I'll tell it anyway. But, um, I was at, uh, okay. So they were, they were, the AFI was celebrating him and I brought my then young sons. They were probably, uh, you know, 10 and 12 or something like that. And, and they knew who he was and all that stuff. And I was, I got an invitation.

So I took my sons and it was at the Kodak Theater, and every star was there and every, everybody was there. It was just incredible. And I felt really lucky and I was sitting with my kids and we were having a fun little show business thing. And they showed a video presentation of an interview with him. Of course he was there, but they showed this video portion.

And in it, one of the questions he got was, what is the funniest sequence you've ever filmed on out of all your films? And of course, we're gonna think something from, you know, Put the Candle Back, Young Frankenstein, or, you know, the bean scene, whatever it is, from the 12 Chairs even, Frank Langella, you know, all that stuff.

And he said, it was in Dracula, Dead and Loving It, with Steven Weber, when he spikes the vampire and the gush of blood comes out like a fire hydrant force. And I'm looking at it like this. And my son, Alfie, looks at me, he goes, Papa, that's you. And they even show a clip. And I was stunned. And I looked around the entire audience, which was filled with every star in the firmament. And they were looking like this too. Like like. You know, a who be what movie see why? And so that was a highlight that, of course, was I love that.

Very cool. I love that story so much. I remember where I was standing in Vancouver. I was on the phone with you in Vancouver in front of my apartment. I was wandering around in the foliage, which you're not supposed to be. That's where I was when I first heard that story I love that story why did Mel Brooks kiss you on the on the mouth Greg he came to see Music Man with Anne Bancroft who's as beautiful as you want her to be I opened the door and there he is as small as life Mel Brooks and he comes up to me grabs me by the side of the head and he pulls me in and gives me it's not a soul kiss but he just a big wet inside old man can't control the inside of the lips

i don't think licking was intended but licking happened it's another thing with meeting people you know i we we watched people on tv and in movies for decades now we're in the where we can use decades credibly and when you finally meet them they're they're mummies i mean i remember like okay when i was on wings and i went to a party and angie dickinson was there and i felt like now at age 77, I could probably bang Angie Dickinson. You got a shot. I'm like that with Marilyn Monroe. Steve, are you still haunted by Gilbert's wings appearances? Well, okay. So I was talking to my mother. I was telling her I was doing this tonight and she said,

you know, I was there when Gilbert did one of the episodes the episodes i said do you worry said yeah i was walking and i think you may have introduced me to him and i wore a big at that time i wore a big star of david and we passed him and she he you went up telling my mother and my aunt and you just looked at them and you said jew and it made her it made her year. Congratulations. Can I just say congratulations on 400 blows? What a wonderful, because what did Richard say? It's a, Richard says it's a 90 minute blow job. Yes.

So congratulations on 400 blows. I thought of that just now. You're like one of the compass players. Thank you for letting me be a part of this. Gilbert, I love you. I wish that you still lived up the street. I miss seeing you, but I look forward to seeing you on the road. Who poked their fucking head out behind you?

Greg, I'll see you in the equity lounge. We'll get coffee. We'll have a cup. We'll wear our safari jackets and argue about the rules. We love you guys. Thanks for doing this. Bye. We appreciate it.

Love you guys. Bye. Bye, Rabbi. Thank you. Go to hell, Gilbert. Okay. That was the hilarious Stephen Weber and Craig Bierko. We will return to Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast,

but first a word from our sponsor. And we have another. We were going to do a bit, but we're going to go right to the next guest instead. Rabbi, let him in. You ready for both? The first person. You want to let them both in together? Let's do it.

All right. Here we go. Like a steel cage match. You don't know who's coming in. Gilbert does not know who's coming. Please unmute yourselves and introduce yourselves. Ladies and gentlemen. Hey there. Who's there?

Hey. Gilbert, it's Billy West. Hello, folks. Hi, Billy. Hi. How are you? Hi, Billy. Hi.

What is that? Jackie or something? Billy, say hi to the rabbi. That's a real rabbi. Oh, really? Rabbi David. So the kosher technology is going to be working for us good tonight? Yeah. Who else is in the room? Gilbert, it's Dave Thomas.

Dave! Comedy icon. How are you kids doing? Hey, Dave. Comedy icon. How are you kids doing? Hey, Dave. We're doing great, Bob. Hey, it's great to be here. What a show you got here.

Wild. Absolutely wild. This is a fever dream. Billy West and Dave Thomas on screen together. Boys, thank you for doing this. Have you guys ever met? Can the two of you, Dave and Billy, do an impromptu sketch between Bob Hope and the old Lucille Ball? Wait a minute.

Let me go to page three of the ad libs. Nothing like throwing them into it. Come on, Tweed. We got to get it up one more time. Oh, boy. Well, I can still take the finger, Bob. Well, you took mine.

I don't know. I don't know how to explain that to Dolores, you know. She didn't like that one bit. They should be wheeling Dolores by any moment now. Yeah, they got her head strapped to her gurney like Dr. Hannibal Lecter. Yes. Mind if I have a cigarette? No. Oh, my God. mind if i have a cigarette oh my god i i think that's gonna help your breathing darling i think so too you know you're still a looker after all these years i know i know oh look

here's a card came right to the hospital. It's from Maury Amsterdam. Oh, that's wonderful. What's wrong with comedy? Where are all the Maury Amsterdams and the Phil Silvers and the... I don't have any cards for that, so I have no idea. If you want me to just make something up, you're getting into very dangerous territory. Who is Steve Harvey? Who is he to declare that comedy is over?

Barney, you want to hold that up a little higher? I can't see it. Hey, how about that red-headed bombshell Lucia Ball? Isn't she something? Leave me alone. Why are you bothering me? Leave me alone. This is the ICU and you're calling me. You know, I don't know. Thank you, gentlemen. that was beautiful i love that great

i love that voice billy oh you guys i was watching you doing that stuff so long ago it was really inspirational because you were doing those um road picture skits the send-ups of the road pictures that's right wow boy was that funny oh god what a memory when did you when did you guys meet did you meet like on a voiceover job or something we met like in passing probably at one of the recording studios and i i was in radio in boston many years ago when dave was doing bob and doug. And they swung by and we were, Dave was talking about a cod piece or something. I was really into them back then.

Were you in Jethro Tull? No, I was a Shakespeare major. And just the idea that something like that could actually continue for 400 years kind of amazed me. Codpiece. That's my cod, you know. Remind me of Prince Charles, you know, and his cod. Dave, what were you telling me, the story about Bob and speaking of SCTV?

What, that he played China with an interpreter? Yeah. He was very proud of that. He was very proud of that because that was when Nixon was going over there, you know, and making inroads with the mysterious Chinese nation. And so we did a sketch. I watched his show it was bob doing a monologue in china in front of a complete chinese audience and all his jokes were kind of john wayne jokes and you know references to american culture and of course he was doing his monologue in English, and he had an interpreter there who was interpreting for him.

And the whole thing was just a mishmash. So, anyway, I wrote this piece on SCTV with Rick Moranis, and the two of us played Bob in china behind the scenes with his chinese writers trying to come up with guys that would work for china and rick was playing milk josephson and i was final reference and we're in the room with a bunch of chinese writers these were actors that we hired to play the chinese writers. So we'd try things on them. You know, what about John Wayne? It's just like, oh no, nothing, nothing.

Nothing for me, nothing, nothing here. And then how about so we go through a whole list and finally we end up with Dean Martin who they don't know, but his character Matt Helm, they do know. And the reason for that was because I had heard that Matt Helm

was really big in China so that it's one of those things you're just like what do you do with knowledge like that it's just he never heard his records jesus so anyway i ended up showing that piece to bob hope and sitting with him while watching it and you know he laughed but for all the wrong reasons you know what i mean and he and he said yeah you know yeah you, we really did that. We did a show in China. That scene there that you've got where that's kind of behind the scenes, that's close to what really happened. But I don't think it's close to what really happened. That is so funny.

I love that. Anyway. Billy, are you familiar with Joys, the all-star Bob Hope TV movie, which was a parody of Jaws? If not, we'll send it to you. I wish you would, yeah. Yeah, it has nothing at all to do with Jaws. That's right.

But Jaws was a number one film at the time, and they figured, let's have a one-syllable word with a J in it. So they made it Joyce, even though it had no shark, no ocean, nothing. Nothing. Did it have, like, Marty Allen in it? Everybody. Every star who was known in television at that time was on the show. Including Groucho.

Hello there. You were talking about this thing earlier about the new special, the Munster special. Yeah, I was going to ask you what you think, if you have any hope for the new Munster's movie. Yeah, as long as there's a skidding about Herman and Grandpa going to get a COVID shot.

Yeah, yeah, COVID. Look what you did, you big dummy. You'll lack percent the bank vault. Quit sneezing all over the place, Herman. I'm hanging upside down like a bat so I don't get sick, you big dummy. I know, Grandpa, it sucks. Maybe it's time to get a vaccine.

Yeah, yeah, vaccine. She was one of the Andrews sisters. Patty, Pat, Steve, and Laverne. Man, they could sing them, those Andrews sisters. Patty, Pat, Steve, and Laverne. Man, they could sing them. Those Andrews sisters. Come on, Grandpa, you're not scared of needles, are you? Herman, I am not scared of needles.

I got my own cure. I'm going to drink urine with all the hillbillies. Yeah, yeah. Boy, oh boy, these idiots are right. I feel better already, Herman. Maybe Steve Harvey is right. Maybe I should shut up. Maybe it's the politically correct is the way to go.

New comedy mandate. Whatever you do, don't. Everybody's ganging up on Steve Harvey. And rightly so. No, he just came out like this, made this big declaration. I am never doing a comedy special again. Okay. That was pretty good.

What was Steve Harvey, the rest of us supposed to do? Dave, have you heard, have you heard Billy's Lou Jacoby? I'd like to hear it. Have you heard Billy's Lou Jacoby? I'd like to hear it. Well, all he did in the movie, Arthur, was lean in and go, what's it like to have all that money? But the thing that these guys, we used to talk about when I'd come in,

is how they cast the movie, the diary of Anne Frank. Yeah. Two lead actors are two big comedians of their day. You know, like Lou Jacoby and Ed Wynn is the head of the house. And I would, I didn't want to laugh. I said, God, forgive me. You know, cause they would be sitting here all along. We thought it was the rats and it was you buddy i stole from the children i stole from the kids and i'm laughing my balls off but i said jesus i've been in that house in that house and i did those voices in that house just because i'm a nut we just like old old characters you know do we have an opinion on the uh on the new lucy desi movie uh billy because i read the script and

there are no there's not a single mention of haitians all the nurses in this hospital are from haiti no one speaks english what's wrong no one even speaks english they must think this place is a cab stand or something i did a little research and i found that Lucille Ball was in a Stooges film. Yes, she was. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Three little pigskins.

Yeah. She was pretty hot, you know. Boy, she was a hot one, Mo. Fuck her. Blew me. Good boy Hey Larry How's the dating scene going? Oh woe is me Mo

Can't a stooge get a table dance? No luck Boopkas Aw that's a shame kid How old are you now? 120 years young But so what? These broads nowadays are ages

Buddy boy Why don't you I thought I told you to go fuck yourself In the last two reeler Joe So what? These broads nowadays are ageists. Buddy boy, why don't you... I thought I told you to go fuck yourself in the last two reeler, Joe. You're hocking my shinniker. What's the matter, Joe? You can't find a nice level-headed lady either?

Buddy boy, buddy boy, it's tough. Forget it, Moe. He still calls women buddy boy. Why don't you go on a dating site? Oh, boy, that's a good idea. Let's see. Am I flip the tomato? I am a nice Jewish boy who is looking for a classy marriage-minded skirt to share my boss's white muck with. How's that? Why you applehead? What's the matter

with you? Trying to get us arrested? Lame brain you? Yeah, what if you're talking to a cop, buddy boy? Blue balls and an orange jumpsuit ain't a good look. Oh, you're going to start now, too. I can't keep it up. Do you have any of this? Three Stooges beer. Look at that. Dave's holding up

a bottle of Steve Three Stooges beer. Wait, Dave. Yeah. I'm looking on your shelf because I'm nosy. And you have a time machine up there. That's right. And I have one of those in my living room. I'm not going to go get it, but I'll get my stooge beer.

I wish this were a visual podcast. I'm trying to remember. There he goes. Oh, he's got it, Dave.ave let's see we're like soulmates or something here oh yeah yeah he's got it do do tell the george burns uh store the story about pitching george burns manager because it's fun okay so my agent says irving fine wants to meet with you and he's producing george's next movie george has just done i've just done oh god and i think he might have all already done oh god too as well so i said well am i pitching him

a movie idea oh no no it's it's a meet and greet he's just got something for you this is the biggest lie you ever get from me a fucking meet and greet until it's a pitch but anyway i went in there like a moron figuring it's a meet and greet i go into irving fine's office and i sit down he's sitting across his desk and he goes so what do you got for me right away it's a pitch so i said So I said, okay, you want something here? Run an airplane in first class. And George is sitting there because, well, he's God. God's not going to sit and coach. Come on.

He's in first class. And so two guys come up to use the first class bathroom, two Middle Eastern guys. They go into the first class bathroom. and then they come out wearing masks with guns you got a terrorist thing on a plane with god that's your opening scene and he looks at me and he goes no no no no no he must have said it about 10 times. And I said, okay, well, I said, you know, I wasn't expecting to pitch a movie. So, you know, I got nothing for you.

Was George there or just those guys? No, it was just Irving finding me. So anyway, I say, well, I guess that wraps it up. And he says, wait a minute. So anyway, I say, well, I guess that wraps it up. And he says, wait a minute. What if we go into the cockpit and the pilot is Charlton Heston? Because he's like Moses.

Then you got like Moses and God on the same plane. And I looked at him and I just said no no no and he said get out i i had some problems with a lot of those kind of meetings and I had so many of them. Okay. Here's a, I don't tell, I don't, I haven't told this one very often, but Joe Flaherty and I were in pitching at Warner brothers and we got, I think it was Mark Canton or is it, it was one of the heads of the student. You don't get a pitch with this guy. And we were really lucky and somebody had set it up for us like Joel Silver or something like that. So the night before the pitch i'd gone out to lucy's aladobe and had this gigantic mexican

dinner and the next day i just got the worst shits that i just can't even hold in. We're in this office, the president of Warner Brothers office. And I say, we're starting the pitch. And I say, I'm really sorry. I got to go use the bathroom. I'll just be right back. He said, no, no. Use my bathroom. This is the executive bathroom.

It's behind his desk. And I said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I can't. I can't use that. I want to. I'll go. And he said, no, no, I insist. He says, hey, you're an important guy.

You're doing a pitch. And you'll be in quicker. The other one's far away. So I end up going and using this bathroom. And I do probably one of the most horrible shits of my life and the door to the bathroom is literally three feet from his from his seat so i come out of the bathroom and it's just awful. So Joe and I sit there. We're starting that

pitch and he says, yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. I get it. He's being poisoned by the pitch. He says, yeah, yeah, I get it. Okay, okay. Let me think about it and get back to you.

Last we ever heard of him we got out of his office and joe looks at me he goes thanks a lot we have that in the palm of our hands and you just blew it with your big ass oh my god that's a great one. Everybody want to get happy? Yeah. Wait. Go ahead. What do you got? The singing nun.

That's right. How come everybody knows the words to it? We got Sandler and Young's version. Oh, really? He was here. He was on the podcast. You just saw Kennedy get his head blown off, and then here comes this girl group, the singing nuns. Did we lose Gilbert?

About a half hour ago Gilbert is croup He's strangely quiet He might have grip. You turned the lighting down on yourself, Gilbert, I think. And I think, what is this, you doing your Mrs. Calabash, Jimmy Durante thing where you're about to leave? Exactly that. It's Mickey One.
