I plan on doing more. Actually, I'm doing a movie coming up in a couple weeks called Spinning Gold where I play Georgioma Roder who was the father of disco and I have to do it with talk about putting yourself in a situation that you don't normally find yourself in. I came here, right? No. Yeah, I just, I just got it. Yeah, you did. Yeah, now. So, yeah, you win this round. I noticed, and this is probably the Italian in me, I don't like that you got your name outside on the wall. Yeah. I think it should be nondescript. Yeah. Don't, don't you think? Oh, because it, yeah, kind of some, some psychotic come by and then, oh, this is where you podcast out of, you know, kind of like little under the radar. No, that's a good idea. Actually, I think also,

because there's a lot of mental health in this building. So, it's like, yeah, I think they're all gonna, okay, you know, one of those fricking brain hamsters relapses and next thing you know, they come nibbling through the door, you know, the first guy they go after. Yeah. But yeah, that's the Italian. You guys do hide and go seek like every day. It's like almost 24 hours a day. That's right. No one never knows where we're at, you know? You're gonna sign out there. Might as well be a neon. So, yeah, but this is a nice spot you got here and I like the mural and we were talking about this before that, and I know I'm not a big, I'm not in the podcast Mafia, but I do have a podcast. Yeah. It's been, been with Pete Coriali. Yeah. For five years,

it's, it's really popular. Popular enough not to make the wall. So, do you, do you sometimes, does it feel like that podcasting is like, what does podcasting feel like to you? It must, does it feel a little like goofy kind of or something? Because you're, I mean, you're really like an entertainer. So, does podcasting feel like a little bit, you know, like, that's not really my bag sometimes or do you have any thoughts like that on it? Well, you know, I, I, I like it and I like doing podcasts, not, not as often as maybe a lot of you guys. I know it's like, there's a lot of you guys there and in your, you know, like the, the Schwabs, the, the Callens, the Christchers, the Ciguras and Rogan. It's like, you know, it's like a little family you guys got,

which is cool. And you guys go on each other's podcasts and what have you. But my podcast is not really guest driven. It's just two guys kind of talking about their personal and private lives, which is that a no-no in the podcast world? It reminded me. No, no, no, that's a death. That's a yes, I think. Uh, I got to listen to more episodes. What's it called? It's called the Pete and Sebastian show. And, uh, we get on for an hour a week and it started about five and a half, six years ago. Pete lived here in Los Angeles and then subsequently moved out to, for Donia in New York and we do the podcast through Sirius XM. And, uh, it's, it's only an audio podcast. It's not a video and, uh, and we have fun with it. But, uh, you know, guys like yourself

have really, really had an abundant of success doing the podcasting and, and it's great. It's a great way, you know, for, for, uh, you know, for us underlings. No, for like, look, Italian Steve Martin over here has come down from the, you know, a Steve Martin. Steve Martino, Steve Martino. No, no, no, no, it has been, it's a unique, it's almost like a fan. It is almost like a little bit of a family and it's, it's been, dude, this shit's blowing my mind. I didn't know podcasting was going to, I remember, because I did a podcast for a couple of years for like a year called Allegedly and it didn't do anything or two years. We had like celebrity guests and I didn't really like it. Um, so what,

what, what, uh, was your tipping point? Where did you take off on this? Well, I went on Rogans one time and I was just like, man, um, people just want to hear people talk about stuff and it kind of gave me just a different perception of what podcasting was. And so then, yeah, then I just started in my kitchen and it was just kind of like, you know, I'm just going to talk about stuff that's going on, you know, and sometimes it struggles sometimes it's not. I can imagine yours probably has more recipes in it. I could see there's a recipe or two. Um, there's a lot of recipes actually. Um, but yeah, it's, we have fun with it. It's, it's, it's a really, really good podcast. It's just, I wish it would

reach a broader audience. We don't really put a lot of time and energy into it. Um, because, you know, it's just, he's there. I'm here. Right. Um, so you got a big life going on now. Well, yeah. I mean, I have a family and whatnot. Not that there's an excuse not to have a podcast, but, uh, dude, I hope my father one day leaves me for a podcast. Imagine how sad the story is going to be for our children. Yeah, my dad was never home. He was always an Encino record. He never took me to ballet class because he was in podcastville. Uh, that's going to be a lot of kids stories though.

Oh, it is. It is. No, but you do a good job, man. I mean, you should really be proud of yourself and look at, look at where, you know, it's taken you, you know, you've, you've gotten a huge audience now on the road and, and, and here now and, and you're getting all these movie parts and whatnot. So you're a, this is, you fit right in here. It's been fun. Yeah. It has been fun, man. It's been, you know, it's funny, like Joey Diaz called me this morning. What's good, you know, and you guys look up to him. I know. And so he called me this morning. He's like, what's good, cocksucker, you know. So yeah, you, you talked to a lot of like, like comedians off, off the podcast. He calls like once a week. Oh yeah. Yeah. He's just like that. And he's always got, you know,

for him, everything is three things. It's a, uh, it's destination, a sandwich and something to read every time he tells you information. He's like, dude, here's what you do. You're in Buffalo. You go two blocks down there. You're going to smell a guy, right? Don't look at him. All right. To the left, you're going to see a, uh, a sandwich shop. Looks like it's out of business. You fucking go in there, right? You order, you order a, uh, Rube and ask for four extra inches of meat, crack open a copy of catcher in the rye and you're fucking tremendous, son. Every time, no matter where you are, he's like, oh, you're in Tampa. Go until you can't fucking see anything, right? Turn around three times. There's going to be a lady there with a fucking, uh,

you know, a couple of, uh, loose veal, you know, you grab one of those bitches, man. You know, you open a copy of time magazine from 1979. Oh, nobody can fuck with you. He always has like, boom, boom, boom, specifics. Yeah. Very specific. No matter where you are. But he, he just did a, a Sopranos movie. Yeah. That's what he was telling me at the comedy star. I talked to him a couple of weeks ago. He said he just got off the Sopranos thing. So and, uh, and you have a new, you have a movie. Yeah. A movie coming out called the Irishman with, uh, De Niro Pacino and Pesci. It's a gangster film. Say their names again, bro. And let's say them, let's say them like we, like us underlings can say them. Okay.

So who De Niro, Larry De Niro? Larry De Niro, Pete Pesci, and Frank Scorsese. Who's Pete Pesci, bro? You know, he's out there pretending he's a fuck. Hey, man. So yeah, it's coming out. We don't know when, but sometimes this year, but the trailer dropped a couple of weeks ago and I, I was really excited about it. It was, it was the first time I really saw any footage from the, from the movie and, uh, I got goosebumps. So it was, it was, it's going to be pretty special. Damn. So I play crazy Joe Gallo and I'm, I'm actually in the trailer falling out of the window. So it's, uh, it's, it's exciting. We're looking forward to it. Crazy man. And I saw the green book that you did.

Yeah. Green book won the Oscar this year. And, uh, yeah, very fortunate to land some of these roles that, you know, I like dream roles for, for, you know, like a lot of actors worked 25 years to get in movies like this. And the comedy has allowed me to, you know, open the doors for other opportunity. And the, and the green book was one of those where, you know, I'm working the first day with, uh, Vigo Mortensen and, um, you know, he slapped me in the scene. And then after the cut, yeah, it's like nice little slap. And, uh, he goes, is that okay? Okay. Do that. And I'm like, guy, you want to lay me out, lay me out. I'm up for anything. Um, so yeah, it was, it was exciting. So there's exciting things going on. I got a little baby boy that we just had eight

weeks ago. So building the family and is it hard to concept? Is it hard to like, does it almost feel like hard to be present sometimes? I mean, it's a lot going on in your life. Yeah. There's a lot, there's a lot of thinking. There's a lot of, you know, sometimes I'm not in whatever I'm in. I might be thinking about other things, which I like to be present and available. Uh, but sometimes your plate is really full. And you, uh, it's just hard not to think about what's going on. I worry a lot, a lot of fear in, uh, in taking some of the projects I take just because, uh, yeah, well, I'm doing this VMAs in two weeks, right? I'm hosting. Oh yeah. I heard about that. And honestly, my first thought was like, what the fuck, dude, that's crazy. Well, it's, it's, it's a challenge

for me because a, it's not my audience. I mean, excuse younger. Yeah. My audience is typically, you know, 30 to 60. Yeah, I have jaggles. You know what I'm saying, bro? Jaggles with cufflinks. I know your audience is. It's getting hot in Topcastville, bro. Getting hot. I'm joking, man. You have a huge, uh, huge audience that gets good entertainment. So that's who you have. Yeah. Um, so you're worried that. Well, I mean, it's, it's first of all, I mean, you, you well know, as a comedian, when you do, um, comedy at a musical event, that, you know, sometimes it could be difficult to connect with the crowd just because, you know, they're listening to music and then you come on and you have to kind of segue and do a joke here or there. So it's something. You're hosting it, right? Yeah.

It's, I'm hosting it. So I'm crazy. Now you never saw, you never would have thought that you'd be hosting the VMS. No, it wasn't on my vision board. Like, yeah. So do you have a vision board? Bro, that's crazy. Do you write shit down? I do have a vision board actually. And I want a black son. One day I have two black kids on my vision board. You have two black kids? Yeah. Okay. So people always, I don't tell people that often because they don't see it the way I see it, you know? How do you see it? I see it as these are going to be my son. These are going to be my sons one day. I think other people see like, oh, a guy from the South has a couple of black guys on a vision board. You know, I think they kind of get a, you know, they're looking at it different. So if I

went through your house and looked at the vision board, you got two, two black kids up there? Yeah. They're happy and one of them has a school book under his arm. Those are my sons, man. Okay. And no matter who my sons are or what, you know, what color, you know, what tent they come in, they're going to be, you know, hopefully they're going to be reading decently and doing good stuff, you know? But, dude, that's crazy. You're going to be hosting the VMAs. You have to be a little nervous, huh? I'm a lot nervous. I wouldn't be living if I'm not really feeling this stuff. So, you know, music, skewing younger, never hosted anything before. That's crazy. And, you know, like, you know, you got to write the comedy for the night,

you know? And my comedy generally is tested at the comedy store and whatnot. So the monologue that I'm opening up with, you know, I've been working on, but haven't really tested it in front of a live audience, which I will, you know, moving forward this week and next. But yeah, it's a daunting task. So you're going to talk about celebrities and stuff and you have to kind of, I mean, MTV's turned it, it's basically just Rob Dierdek 24 hours a day, I think. I feel like it's just that show ridiculousness. Yeah, there's a lot of that. But I'm not, my style's not ripping people to shreds. My style's a little bit more. I'm going to tailor the comedy to what I do on stage and kind of fit it into the environment rather than go on stage and go, well, Drake's

here tonight. It's not really what I do, what I do. So, right. Oh, wow, that's cool though, because that's, I think when I heard about it, I was like, oh, man, is Sebastian going to do that? It's just different. It's just different than him. That would just, to me, it would seem so scary, you know? It's frightening. But it's good. It's a good frightening. You know, like, I believe that if you don't challenge yourself in this business, and we've talked offline about this, like, you know, getting a little, maybe your momentum is not there, or your passion is not there, maybe in certain different things, I feel that, you know, the challenge is where you kind of get the passion back and or putting yourself in situations that you typically wouldn't put yourself in

to, you know, overcome and succeed. So, you know, doing that, yeah, doing this is definitely one of those. That's wild. So, yeah, that's been good though. What are you going to wear, dude? How? I am getting the outfits are next next week. I mean, I'm not going to come out there and see through leopard nipple shirt. How many gross of sequins are in the mail right now? And it's a Los Angeles to make your costume, brother. There might be a sequin and a jacket or two, but you better fucking come out looking like a 60 year old Italian thought who's trying to fucking get one last run at some cock over the BMW. I want to reel on you to come out to shine in, bro. There's going to be a lot of, yeah, I think I'm the

pre, maybe one of the oldest hosts they've ever had, at least the, maybe the only host they've ever had would gray hair. Definitely. So you might be one of the only hosts who's being honest about their age as well. Yeah. 46 years old doing the VMAs. So yeah, that's going to be exciting. Damn, bro. That's so crazy, man. It's crazy. Is it strange to feel sometimes that that's your life? Like, isn't it sometimes, even with me, just like in the past year, just getting things, getting busier and people coming out. It's like, it's crazy how quick you adapt to it kind of. And then sometimes I don't feel embarrassed that it's my life or something. I mean, I'm grateful, but I just feel, it's almost like my life, the reality of some of

my life sometimes makes me a little bit nervous, if that makes any sense. What are you nervous about? Just like, I guess just like, there's a, there's, it feels like there's a bigger expectation than you're able to fulfill just as like a human person. You know, it's almost like you get bigger than you are as a person in some, or I worry, I'll fear some of that or something. I don't know if that makes any sense or not. You know. Yeah. I mean, I guess in a way, I mean, for myself, yeah, I just, you know, I just like to live a normal life. I don't like to like feel like I have to be doing something else. Put it this way. The gym I work out at, I don't have an office. Right. I just have a home and I work out of the home. Right. But it's getting a little crazy

now at the house with two kids. It's hard to work. It's hard to do anything. So what I've been doing is going to my gym and after I work out, I set up shop. At the gym? At the gym. Oh, Jesus. Which I've done. I've gone to Starbucks. I've got, you know, I've done all that stuff, you know, and throughout my whole career. I've always kind of like just set up shop and did things. So what do you, you bring in a laptop or you bring a laptop? No, I'm not bringing a printer. Okay. But I just, just, you know, catch up on some evils on a table outside the gym. Right. I could just see you carrying a monitor in there. Yeah. No, no, no. He's got a guy at Coffee Bean when I bring a monitor in. Yeah. He had that stack at Tower. That whole thing. It was insane.

The same guy that's editing a full movie at Apple Store. You see those guys, you walk in, this guy's doing like, he's on final cut doing a, doing his short film. Yeah. He's like, well, everybody quiet down and eat some room tone. People are like, chill the fuck out, guy. Trying to get some air pods, man. That's, so sometimes you'll just do it at the gym, huh? Yeah. You know what I mean? Like talking about just kind of living a life that's kind of just normal and don't have to feel like you have to adjust your everyday kind of routine because you've hit some type of success. I don't know. I've always just trying to, you know, it's just do, because I feel like if you stop doing the things that you normally would do,

you lose the kind of like the pulse of what people are doing with, you know, I like going to the stores and the whole, you know, grocery shop. I like, I love all that stuff. Right. And I'll continue to do it just because I enjoy it. Plus I get a lot of like material from just kind of live in life. Oh yeah, man. I think it will. Yeah. When you say that, I think, yeah, I think, yeah, maybe my fear is like, it's not, it's just like this per, it's a, it's a uncomfortable perception. It's like, yeah, maybe I feel like I have to be different or something when I've just, you know, don't maybe this like this weird like pressure or something. I don't know. Yeah. But yeah, I think doing regular stuff, like I like someone who's taking a bird scooter to the

gym in the morning, you know, and I don't have nice calves and I have shorts on. So for me, it's really humbling, you know, but taking fucking lean calves out for a spin on a bird scooter at 39 years old. Have you, have you felt at all safe on that thing? Oh, no. I did it once or twice and it just, you know, one bump and it's over, right? Yeah. There's not a lot of, there's not a lot of opportunity for safety. I don't feel like on overall. Dude, one lady hit the dirt bro about a sprouts over by me, right? This lady fucking way too old to be on one. Had a bag of groceries, just hit the dirt bro and just didn't move at all, right? Instead of helping, there was like two people yelling, this bitch is down over here,

right? And I was like, oh my God. I at least haunt my horn real loud as I fucking drove off, you know? But she, but she bit it, man. Groceries all over, like, um, yeah, it's a lot of, well, listen, these birds, you know, it's, it's, it's good for you want to go to the gym, you want to go to a buddy's house, fine, you pick one up, you go. But what I've seen on these birds is like you were saying, people are carrying groceries. Then I saw a guy that apparently that you take a bird and you, you go and charge it, right? And then people make money on that guy was on a bird with two birds on his shoulder. Okay. It's just, it's not made for that. You know what I'm saying? So that's walking, bro. That's crazy, dude. When you flock him in, that's walking the

birds. That's crazy. Yeah. So you'll see some guy at night just throwing them all into a fucking van, you know? And this is one of your moves, bro. He stole them from you, right? You got a new son, man. That's awesome, huh? Yeah. So I got a little baby boy and yeah, it's been just, it's been great. Got two and a half year old daughter and a lot, a lot of stuff going on at the house. And I try when I'm home to spend as much time as I can with my kids, whether it's taking my daughter to the ballet or whatnot, again, just kind of living, living the dad life and, and extracting material from, from those moments as well. So yeah, it's been really, really, uh, it's really, it's a lot of, it's a lot of work,

but it's very rewarding bringing up kids and having a son too. And I know in your kind of bloodline, it's a big thing, right? Well, yeah. Being a Italian family, it's nice to have a son carry on the name, the name. You're rolling with three daughters. People are like, where'd the name go? What's going on? Yeah. So, so yeah, we, my father and my mother were extremely excited when the little baby, baby boy came. So, um, yeah, I think we're done. I think we're, we're done. Two is good enough. Y'all getting a tube side or anything? And what do you guys do, dude? I don't know, man. Somebody sneak up on a tube with a fucking shank. Yeah. We, we, we shank it. We shank a tube. Um, I don't know. I don't know what I'm going to do yet. We haven't

really discussed, uh, it has been discussed, but I have no idea what's going on. It's the least of my worries right now. Right. Um, so we haven't even talked about the shirt. I think uh, you wore the shirt just for you, man. It's a beautiful piece. Uh, it's a beautiful garment. Well, I remember you said that, yeah, if you ever had a different job, it would be like a concierge or something. That's right. So I could just see you. Like, I'll tell you this, if you show up in people's dreams or anything, this is what you wear. This is what they're wearing. This is what I'm wearing. Yeah, definitely. You're the guy who fucking shows up. That's it, man. That is a beautiful Mater D outfit. Oh yeah. Top notch, dude. Go to prom, funeral, all of it. That's one thing that

is nice about Italians. Like if they really, they dress up, you almost dress for anything. It could be something severe. It could be a good, you know, it could be a get-together. It could be a funeral. It could be, uh, indictment. You know, all, all, all the above. Yeah. It's like they dress right. It's, it's, they're well dressed. Well, I won best dressed in high school. You really? Yeah. Senior year. I took a, well, I actually got the, there was a tie between me and another guy. I should have, I should have took it home though, but I was actually upset that I had to share the award with the guy. But yeah, always, always, uh, very particular about how we look. And I think it stemmed from, you know, the, the upbringing. I would come down

to go out. My mother's like, where you going with that on? I'm like, well, we're gonna go, we're gonna go to dinner. She's like that. Go put the, you know, go put some nice slacks on. Yeah. And you're like, dude, we're, we're going to Arby's, man. And we don't go to Arby's. No. We're going to pizza. Remember when pizza was sit down? That's not sit down anymore? No. I had a merge of basketball. I was like, bro, some of them, you go in there, it's just some muppet. Just gives you a scoop of fucking pepperoni, bro. And somebody pulls a gun in the distance, bro. That place is going downhill.

You can't sit down and eat there anymore. You can, bro. You can, but you're not going to be fucking looked at. Well, it's very small in there. Oh, pizza hut used to be like a restaurant, right? Dude, it was so nice. Yeah. Have you, have you been in a pizza hut recently? Yeah, I picked up from them. I don't think you can sit. There's like a bench where you can wait, but if you sit there and eat, it's going to be hella awkward. Okay. But it's, yeah, it's merged with Baskin Robbins and it's just pizza used to be, it was, we were going out, we went to pizza.

Yeah. It was like kind of curved bench. You sat down and, and yeah, you had a pizza. Wow, I haven't been there in a while. They had the, yeah, the crust was, it was a big pie. They had a couple of video games usually in the place. Yeah. Our family would go sit in there. I enjoyed that a salad bar. Salad bar. That's right. They did have a salad bar. They have pudding on it. I never understood it, but just five days ago, they shut, shut down 500 more dine-in pizza hut locations. It's, it's going away. That's it. Pizza hut's done.

Where do you eat your pizza out here? There's a nice place called Pizana out here. If you're looking for a nice piece of pizza. Is there? Yeah. Where's that at? It's on Robertson and Melrose. They just opened up a location also in Brentwood. I have no money and no steak in this place, but if you want some pizza, dude, those are nice neighborhoods, bro. I'm eating pizza more out here in regional, you know, I'm eating pizza more. Are you, I don't want, I don't want to tell the listeners or the viewers where we're at, right?

But yeah, I eat pizza around here. Okay. This is your hood? Like really close to where you could get gas. You know what I'm saying? You can smell one from the other place, you know, that just bleeds in. The gas bleeds into the cheese. Who are you? Who's somebody that you are kind of low key excited about seeing at the VMAs? Like just to see, do you already know everybody's going to be there and stuff? Yes, they've given me a list. Who am I excited to see? This is, this is why they picked me to do this is I don't really know a lot about music.

And this is kind of what they liked about it, that I don't really have a button on what's going on with the music industry. Although I do, I know the collards and from afar and her and Halsey and all these, all these artists. I know, but I don't know like the ins and outs of like who's throwing shade. Right. Yeah. Whatever that means. Well, I'm from there. My aunt got a new awning on their camper. You know what I'm saying? Like it's totally different, but Missy Elliott, who I grew up kind of listening to, she's going to have a similar body type too. I feel like, yeah, I feel, I feel like we're similar in shape. So she's going to be there. She's going to be there. And yeah, there's a couple of surprise

guests that I can't really mention that I'm looking forward to meeting. That's crazy, man. What a wild night that's going to be. My mom just told me she's coming. My father's calling. My in-laws are coming. Obviously my wife, my whole family's coming. My kids, I want to bring my kids there and get some photos with them at the Prudential Center where they're going to have it. So yeah, just elaborate, even on a production end of it, just looking at this. Cause you know, I know a lot about production and putting on a show, what they, what they have going into this as far as the technology is just sick. It's amazing. Right. And this, this is in New York, right?

This is in New Jersey, Prudential Center in New Jersey. Oh, is that where they usually have it or they usually have it? Last year, I think it was at Radio City. They've had it at Radio City. They've had it here at the Staples Center. They've had it at Madison Square Garden, Microsoft Theater, the Forum, Barclays. Cause I went to one, cause I did MTV show when I was young, right? And so we went to How was that 20 years ago? The VMAs. Yep. 20 years ago. So you went to the VMAs? Went to the VMAs. We got a ticket somehow. I don't even know, right? I get out at the place. I didn't know what it was going to be like. I mean, I'd seen it on

television, but I get out, get dropped off there. Bono is walking on the red carpet at the same time I am. I think everybody's like excited for me, right, dude? And cause I have no clue, Bono is no clue. I never really listened to music. I listened to like, um, you know, Alice and change, you know, I'd recognize them are guns and roses, maybe. But, um, um, so people are going nuts, dude. I have no idea. Go into the place sitting. I sat behind Chris Farley's brothers. He had just died and I sat behind his brothers, sat next to Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins and in sync performed at some point in the evening. Bro is long. I remember urinating in the bathroom between Kid Rock and Montell Williams.

Wow. You know, that's a good piss break and bringing those guys together, you know. And at one point in the evening, I fell asleep in my seat, bro. I was just, I guess it was like a long night and I just got kind of tired and I just remember falling asleep. Now, did you know you were going to be wanting to get in the comedy back then? No, I don't think so. I think I just didn't want to grow up. Like one thing about comedy for me, I just didn't, you know, I didn't want to grow up. I was like, you get to travel. You didn't really know if your girlfriend was your girlfriend. You know, she didn't know kind of if he was the boy, you know. Yeah. And yeah, just felt like you didn't have to grow up. Like you could always get whatever was going on. You

could always go escape it for a few days by going and do shows. But the road rules took you out of Louisiana? Yeah. Yeah, it took me, yeah, it was good because I got to meet like, I just got to see something different. Like we went to South Africa on it, I remember. Oh, wow. And I remember being like, holy shit, you know, all these people are alive. You know, like I just never really put it together. There was people like, I'd seen a globe, but I'd never put together like, oh, there's really people over here like being alive, you know, then you get there and I'm like, holy shit, man, you know, all these people are going to be in heaven. Like this is crazy. Because when I thought of heaven, I thought kind of, you know, kind of a little bit of a limited group, you know,

but, uh, but then you get over there and you're like, damn, everybody's going to be up in this bitch, man. It's a whole world after. Yeah. It started giving me this. Yeah. It gave me this a different perception. Uh, globe came alive. Yeah. Really. Yeah. It got four dimensional. So a little bit more about the movie than I want to know. So is it interesting? Like, as you start to build, you kind of become a name, you know? And so then it's like, if you're working with guys like that, like, is it harder to like not be like, would you not want to seem like you're just like a regular guy with them? Like, do you have to try and pay out like a little bit of homage? Like, do you feel like any of that kind of thing

on set or what is it like? Kind of when I went on set, I told myself, I'm not going to speak unless spoken to. All right. I didn't want to be that guy. Yeah. And I'm not that guy, you know, like Jesus go up that fucking guy, bro. Well, you know, the guy goes, what are you going to do? Go up to Robert De Niro and go, wow, I really loved you in casino. Right. The first day I had a scene with Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci, and I didn't know, I didn't sleep for a couple of days before that. I was really kind of pining over this. He didn't sleep. Well, no, I mean, like, are you fucking camping and shit got crazy? Like, how do you not get any rest, man? Well, I mean, I was just because I think I'm like,

like neurotic, you know, like, if I got something to do, like this VMAs two days before that, I'm going to be up and down. There's no sleep. Oh, when they call you out to the stage, that's going to be fucking. It's live. It's live, man. So with this, it was it was nerve wracking, because I just I'm not an experienced actor. I don't have a lot of experience on movie sets. And now to be thrust into a movie where you're working with, you know, not only Martin Scorsese, but probably two of the actors that are maybe the best of our generation. And then, you know, they're yelling action. I'm just hoping words come out of my mouth, you know? So I was I was nervous going into that whole experience. But it's just like

anything else, you know, you do it. And then you're like, OK, you know, because there's there's doubt. There was doubt for me, like, do I belong here? Right. That's what I'm I think I'm trying to get at a little bit. Yeah, that's what I would feel. Yeah. Like, do I belong here? Am I pretending that I belong here? Do they know that I don't know if I belong here? Like, those would be the things that we've run into ahead. Are they like, oh, this fucking guy don't belong here? Or are they just looking at me like a regular person and all the doubt is just inside of me, you know? That's what it is. That you're you're it's all inside the questions you have. No one else is thinking that you have to you have to think that. But, you know, that's what I

was thinking. I was like, am I going to get on set? And then I was going to go, this is who we hired. Yeah. So yeah, there is a bit of self doubt. And there's a bit of, you know, a lot of anxiety and nerves, at least for me. And then once we are up and running, it was it was off to the races. So I didn't really look back after that. But I did have some experience with the green book going into this movie, which I think that's why I think a lot of things happen for a reason, you know, like you get certain things because they prepare you for what's to come. Oh, right. A plane you can't even see kind of. Yeah. With green book. Yeah. Did you guys shoot those scenes in order? Were they out of order? Green book was in order. Because dude, honestly, no, this is obviously

me judging you. But from the beginning, like the first scene when I see like helping with the luggage, I think, or something that was some scene, I think, or helping somebody to just arrive somewhere in a car, I think. And by the end, I could personally see like, wow, he's he's so much more comfortable at the Christmas party. Okay. Because that the first day was that the luggage day. Wow. And then talk about nerves. Oh, I'd be so nervous. I was nervous for it. I was nervous for you watching 100%. Like, that's so scary. But no joke, dude, by the end, I was like, oh, Sebastian, just, I mean, knowing enough about you didn't know in a little bit of like your mannerisms and how you look even off of stage and stuff. Like, I was like, oh, man,

he seems a little bit nervous. But by the end, I was like, damn, he's dialed in. Yeah. No, you're right. You're very perceptive. The first scene for me was nerve wracking, because I was like, oh, that was really my first big scene in a movie with a big, big actor. And it's like, you got to rise to those occasions because, you know, if you don't, then they're like, right. But yeah, it was, I hope I hope looking back at what I did in the Irishman when I watch it, I could, because it's different when you watch a movie and then you do and stand up and stand up and something don't work. Right. We were like, okay, that didn't work. You can stay on screen. Hey, that didn't, you can stay on the stage. Okay, not going to use that anymore. You can't say that in

a script. Yeah. So for me, as a comedian doing acting, it's, it's, it's a lot different because I could always make it up and stand up. I could do the next joke. I go, okay, I'm going to get them with this one. I'm going to get back. But it was, it was a great, I plan on doing more. Actually, I'm doing a movie coming up in a couple of weeks called Spinning Gold, where I play George Omerotter, who was the father of Disco. And I have to do it with, talk about putting yourself in a situation that you don't normally find yourself in. Disco? No, that I could do. Probably the owner of one of the Looney Bins in Oklahoma City was a Disco dancing champion, I remember. He was. He used to take me in the back room and show me all his trophies,

his old outfits, his unitards or whatever, bro. Because painters. Yeah. A lot of Disco people wore like those fucking onesies that a lot of painters wore. There's nothing like a nice onesie Dylan Grisco. Yeah. So I'm doing this with a German accent. So I'm working with like a dialect coach to get like a German accent. Bro, bro, bro. At some point, dog, you don't have to challenge yourself. That's how the challenge is crazy. That's it, George Omerotter. You're going to grow a big mustache too? I hope they give me a mustache on set because that mustache is beautiful. God, is that beautiful? Dude, I sold half a handful of pubic hair to a guy one time for a Halloween mustache. You did? I trimmed it right off. On a cruise ship. True story. We needed hair,

bro. And this guy was limited, dudes. And I was fucking carrying at the time. So I fucking chipped, trimmed him off a couple of edges and he used honey to fucking put it right up above his lips. Your stories, I don't know if you feel this way, guys, but your stories are so off the beaten path. I often go, is he making this shit up? Yeah. Or did that really happen? Yeah. So that happened? Oh yeah. Oh yeah, it happened, dude. Trading pubic hair for small money, bro. Trading pubic hair. I mean, I never even heard of that. Like when I listen to that, I go, that's made up, right? But this guy's named Patricio from Brazil, actually. And I still follow me fucking. He's a big Formula One racing fan, but yeah, dude, that dude dance like a motherfucker with somebody

else's fucking pubic hair above his lip. Okay. He's a champion too. This guy was also a really cool guy. Okay. But you're on a cruise. Yeah. And how, and this is a buddy of yours? It's Halloween. Yeah. And he needs hair for his lip. Yeah. And you shave your pubic hair off to give to him, which he puts on with honey. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I trim a decent amount. I never shave anything. How's that thought even come into your head and go like, bro, hold on, let me start shaving my pubic hair. Look, I was thinking, well, I love my hair, man. You know, even though it's I feel like it's getting scarce on these days and I've been hatin a little, but yeah, I love my hair and I just knew that I didn't want to give any of that up at the time. But I was like, I got this,

you know, second batch of hair going on, bro, that, you know, it ain't, I don't know if it's the A team, but I got a fucking B team down here. I'll tell you a fucking quarter ounce of it. So you sold it to him? Yep. 40 bucks on a cruise ship and a ticket for a wine because you got tickets at night to see how much wine and you could get like two wines or something. You know, they had a, you know, it's kind of like a cube or something, or, you know, like a system where you get a voucher kind of thing. I didn't know there was a dollar amount on pubes. There is now, bro. Things are changing, dude, especially with all, what was I going to ask you about, man? Oh, hair, dude. So I got, I got PRP, right? Yeah. Where they take part of your blood out. Yeah. And they like,

well, did you get the transplant and then the PRP? Okay. I got the transplant first. Okay. So I got part of the back taken out and put in the front. Yeah. Because I love surgery, you know. And so I got part of the back taken out, put into the front, just in the very front. And how many, how many hairs do you remember? 500. 500? Yeah. That's not many. That's, that's, that's, I mean, I don't really see, I mean, obviously, you know, you, well, that's a, well, that's a nice hairline, man. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I don't know what the hell you were worried about. I had it done. Yeah. And because I needed it. I mean, you look like you got a mop. Really? You look good, man. You got Italian hair, right? Well, yeah. Well, they brought it. I think

I did 2000. Oh, nice, huh? 2000. But I don't do the PRP. I don't do that. But you're seeing significant growth. I don't know if I am. That's the problem. Here's the trick. Who fucking knows if it works. No, that's what I'm saying. Like, how do you look and go, wow, this is getting thicker? Nothing? I mean. Well, that was the thing. Even with the hairs, it's like, you know, I don't know. They say they put them in and they, they put it all the way, they cut it all the way down to the root. So they're not just putting the full hair in. They put just the little seed, right? Is that the experience you had? Yeah. Well, yeah. Well, they, they take it out and they take from the root. Yes. And then they plop it into your, your head. Yeah. Now, do you

know that they could take, because I asked, I go, can you take other people's hair and put it in your head? And they said, no, it won't take. Yeah. But the second place they take it from, if you don't have any of the back is underneath your, your neck right here. They'll take these hairs out. And really? Yeah. What psycho would get that, bro? What fucking cannibal would take out his neck hair and get it put in the top of his head, bro? It's available, bro. It's available. What pervert is running around with his neck hair? Hey, you got some guy with fucking pubic hair on his lip and you're worried about neck hair? Well, I'm making money on the high seas, bucko. Okay. But dude, that's crazy. I would just feel so fucking gentle out there. I could,

I'd be way too gentle. I feel like that here's scary neck hair. That's too much, man. No. So this PRP is, what, what is that? They, they prick your head with blood? Yeah. Yeah. They, so they take blood out of your arm and I had a slow drip or something. I don't know if it was, you know, apparently it wasn't really that time of the month in my arm, you know, because dude, it took them fucking 20 minutes to both sit in there. At one point, the guy's looking at shit on his phone, bro. Oh God. While he's like, they're like, well, it's good, but it's just coming out real slow, which is way scary, bro. Like I'm down to a half a quarter or something, you know? So they finally got it and they put it in some machine that spins it and I

guess gets like the best blood you have. Yeah. Cause people don't realize a lot of their blood is just B, you know, BC team. There's a lot of fucking miscreants running around in there, you know? Some cells are just waiting for a fucking Greyhound, you know what I'm saying? I ain't doing shit, but you got an A team in there that's really kind of doing most of the work. So they get those and then inject them in a certain parts back in your head. And you had the process done once a month or? It's supposed to be annually and I just had it done. Okay. Annual because it's been about a year since I had the surgery. So I think it's been good though. It's definitely been, it was interesting, I thought. And I was glad I did it. It felt me like, made me feel kind of proactive.

But I also get way inferior about how I look, you know? And so it's like, you know, sometimes I do anyway. Comedy's actually helped me with that a little bit. Well, your appearance? Yeah. Cause it's just like, oh, this is how I fucking look at this point, you know? It's like, and also I think if you're too handsome, I don't know if you can be a good comedian. You know, it would just be, it would be, I don't think a real handsome guy could be a real good, it would be harder for them to do it. I couldn't imagine if I was like a real handsome guy, like I'm an eight if I brushed my teeth, right? I'm a fucking eight. You won't see me in Nineville. You fucking might see me hanging around the sevens. Well, I mean, eight is pretty high

up on the handsome meter. Right? I don't think, I think everybody can be an eight if they take care of themselves. I don't think eight is eight is a B. Right? Yeah. It's a B. It's a B. Yeah. So B, a B is pretty damn handsome. I'm talking, you know, C, C minus. That's what we're talking about. Comedians, right? Yeah, I guess that's true. Maybe. Yeah, maybe I need to do something to myself. Maybe you're better looking than you think you are. Nah, nah, man. That's crazy. Maybe I need to fucking try and hold the door in a sharp elevator and fucking come back here a couple of months at one arm. Yeah, I don't know. So I had it done, though. I had it done this guy in Beverly Hills, this guy, Dr. Cain, and he was awesome, man.

I went in there one or two times and he's like, you don't need anything, you know, come back in a year. He wasn't trying to upsell me on my own hair. Like a fucking guy, you got pulling shit out of your neck. That's crazy. I didn't get it done and I'm just saying that's an option. If you want to go back and start taking right out of your goatee. That's crazy, bro. That's wild, man. Yeah, and it's funny. I didn't think that I would ever be that type of person that would do that, but then sometimes you just become people you didn't think you would be, I guess, you know? Yeah, well, you grow, you learn different things, I guess, you know. So for you, so you got this podcast and you got one with... Brenishaw. Like, tell me in the podcast world, how does that come

about? Do you guys get together and go, yeah, we should do another? How many of these things you got going right now? A lot, a lot. What are we at now? This is the weekend, right? Yeah, this is the weekend. But there's another one that you have... Yeah, King and the Sting. Okay, but then there's another one that you just talked to the camera by yourself? That's this past weekend, but on the Monday episode. And so that is just comes out on Monday. This one comes out on Thursday. So how many of these things are you doing a week? I'm doing three a week. Three a week, all right. So it's pretty... That's part of the thing that sometimes burnt me out a little bit is going on the road and then like, you know, you get in Sunday

and then have to come here that night and do an episode. And then Tuesday, do one with Brendan. Wednesday, come in here and do a guest episode. So we're going to scale back a little bit, I think. Not do as many. We got Amanda Knox coming in next week. This is your... This is... Foxy Noxy, dude. So funny, I told you that the other night and you're like, what are you going to ask her about? And that was the first time it hit me like, I don't know. Well, do you like come into these things with like a prepared like, or is it just kind of like, we're just going to wing it? Or I mean, like on the way over, are you going, are you in your head going with Amanda Knox? Okay, I'm going to ask her this. Or do you just take your jacket off, put your hat on and go, okay,

love, we're talking? Yeah. Yeah, I think that's it. I'm going to ask her, let me see. I was going to ask her like about the median stuff and how much she thinks like it controls everything. Does she think that the truth even matters a lot of times? And then... All right, so there's some thought that's going into this. Yes, there's a little bit of thought into it. And then she has a husband now. And then I was going to, yeah, ask her what she looks for in a man. And if she thinks like, you know, how many guys tried to hook up with her just because maybe she killed somebody or allegedly, you know? And then what else? That's probably about it. Sorry to interrupt the episode here with the host of the VMAs. That's so crazy, bro. Can't even believe that. But I got to let you know that

But we got some user questions that come in. We'll get to one of those right now. What up Theo? What up Sebastian?

This is Steven from Connecticut. My question is, so I know Sebastian's been on comedians and cars getting coffee two times now. And it's written in some various vehicles. Those scooters were definitely interesting. My question is, Sebastian, if Theo was to ride in a car with Jerry Seinfeld, what cars should Jerry pick him up in? Gang gang. Gang bro. For you, I'm seeing like a older, I'm seeing a Monte Carlo. Oh, good. Oh, there's an older man. Okay. What is a Monte Carlo? Will you pull that up next? Like maybe a 1981 Monte Carlo with teatops. Yeah, I like teatops. Maybe with red interior. Yeah. I don't know if it's 80. Yeah, that's it. Like that one, that black one. Yeah, something like that. Is that you? Yeah, man. That's beautiful,

bro. A little bit of coke on the seat. It's not mine. It's not mine, dude. I'm just listening to music. That ain't mine, sir. Coke on the seat. That's awesome. I don't think comedians and cars has the coke on the seat. You don't need the coffee, then. You don't need the coffee. Yeah, that's a beautiful vehicle right there. I would do also maybe like a Ford F-150, like a 1980. You like a truck? You know what I miss? I like that bench seat, I think. Yeah, it's a lot. It's like a that's. Yeah, something simple like that. It's just simple. It's like a farm vehicle. Yeah. Like a dog in the back, maybe? Oh, something you could eat as soon as you get home in the back, but after you clean it. It's like a hunting truck. Yeah.

Yeah, I guess that is a little bit of a hunter vehicle. Oh, here's somebody right here. Yo, yo, Mr. Maniscalco. Johnny here in North Carolina. Just a question for you guys, since you come from two totally different types of backgrounds. But 10-year-old Theo and 10-year-old Sebastian Maniscalco, you come in from outside playing with your friends, sit out on a couch with your dirty clothes on, put your feet up on the coffee table. What are your father's responses? Gang gang, I love you. Love you too, buddy. I got a sweat and also, first of all, in this car. You guys drenched. Hope he's doing okay. I don't know what he was doing. Hope he lived through the end of this. It looked like getting in an abruptly.

Yeah, it's a lot of. Thank you, Johnny, and hope you're doing well. So, first of all, I come from playing outside. I ain't sitting on no furniture. It's a shower. Right. Right away. Wow. Listen, my house, 10-years-old. Straight to the shower. Straight to the shower, and you ain't putting your feet up on the furniture. Yeah. Yeah, that guy's got a unique area he's living in. Yeah, my dad, I don't know. My dad was asleep. My dad was 80-years-old when I was 10-years-old. Yeah, you had an older father, right? Last time I think we said you had an older dad. My dad used to borrow money from me to fucking for gas, you know? Because he didn't ever work. They're not hiring a lot of 80-year-olds,

you know, in a lot of places. Yeah. So, he used to borrow gas money from me. Like, I had a fucking job, dude. So, that's crazy. I don't even worry. He thought I was getting the money from him, you know? And I was just kind of stealing somewhere from my mom. So, I was like, we had some dirty back channels in the house. But, oh, my dad, my dad wouldn't notice about that kind of stuff. That kind of stuff was just too menial, I think, too little. But what else we got? Gang, gang, gang, bro. What a dud. You showed you don't know racist, too. To make it like the third video I sent you a letter of support. Oh, damn, bro. I'm sorry, bud. How does it pass? Speak on having a kid. N***a. Yeah. He wants you to speak

on having a kid. I just had to play that video, so he doesn't think we're racist. That was the third one. No, I appreciate it. And thanks, brother. We're not racist, or I'm not trying to be. You know, I have some flare-up, some traffic. But overall, I'm good. Um, you know, I'm doing my best, man. I'm out here on the front lines of not trying to be, brother. Uh, thank you for, for sending in the video. Speak on having a kid, man.

Yeah. Has it changed your perception or anything a little bit of like the world? Do you look at the world any different? Well, yeah, I look at everyday life different. I mean, before, you know, you had a kid, it's just about you and your wife. And now everything is like, I told you, my daughter was, was sick last night, so it's just the world stops. We were supposed to go see the Los Angeles football club play last night at the, at the

exposition park. Those plans are gone. You know, it's just, it's all about the kid. God, that team sounds miserable. Sorry, brother. I've never even heard of that shit, bro, and I'm in some fucking shady leagues. I've got a fucking, I've got two grand going on fucking Winchester this afternoon outside of South Wales.

So I've been on anything. Never heard of that group. Okay. It's right in our backyard. Okay. It's supposed to be an amazing experience. It's they're in the MLS soccer. Oh, it's soccer.

Soccer. Yeah. Okay. I was thinking of American football. No, no. No, no. That's crazy. Take your kid to the fucking Rams game.

Cheap skate. Oh, it's affordable fun for the whole family. So I heard it's supposed to be almost like a European type of atmosphere. Oh, nice. Yeah. Ian Edwards goes sometimes. Yeah. Ian goes.

So we were supposed to go there last night. So long story short in regards to the kid, you know, everything revolves around the kid. It's all about the kid. You go out for a walk, you know, in the neighborhood and, you know, you're scanning what's going on around you before, you know, take a walk by yourself. You could give a shit if you got stabbed, but now it's like, what's going on over here? Let's, you know, it's, it's a dog over here, there's this, there's that. That's a good point.

These dogs, you know, and then my kid goes up to the dog and then, and then I love these owners where you look, I scan the owner, right? And I'm like, does this guy, if things break out, could he even contain the damn thing? So I'm, I'm doing all that 50 yards in advance. Yeah. So like, oh, this guy's all right. Or if it's somebody who's like some weak kid, never goes out once a year to walk like 30 dogs to make all of his money to go back in with his fucking dungeon and just get all

K hold out and just play games until he needs it, you know, until he needs to buy a pack of ramen again the next winter, you know, and he's got like 40 dogs on a leash. He's out there. I did a rod and somewhere in Brentwood like this fucking kid can't handle himself. Yeah. So I guess you got to look out because the kid doesn't look at the kid isn't thinking about those things. She almost have to take part of the kid's brain.

You almost have to be part of their brain, I guess, huh? Yeah. So you, you are, you know, guiding this child and it's a good metaphor through life, you know, and not only when you're walking around the block, but, you know, as they grow older, you know, giving them advice, trying to lead them down the right path. We're very big on manners and please and thank you. I see a lot of brats out there. You know, I go to a lot of these, you know, I go to the park and I see, I tap my wife

and look at this kid. You know, you can always see the kid that's misbehaving. It's always got some weird booger hanging out of his nose and whatnot. And yeah, so, you know, I take up, yeah, especially how I grew up. I grew up with like a lot of like structure, you know, and I'm trying to instill that in our kids. So that's, that's my rap on the kids. Is it hard to start to worry about like being a parent and being able to be around for your

kids enough with, with torn and stuff like that? Yeah. So my daughter's been to 23 cities already and our son, it's going to be a little bit harder to travel with two kids, but they're coming to the VMAs. They'll come to like really large event type shows where, you know, maybe Chicago where I'm from, they'll go back there. But yeah, I, I, I cut out the whole summer to be at home and, and, and, and hang with the family.

And again, we were talking about just having some balance, you know, and I can't always be on the road, um, at least for me with a family, I just, I need to, just to cut out some, some, um, segments in the schedule to, to hang with my, my daughter, my son and my wife. So I make that a priority. Yeah. And it looks like you guys have fun, man. I watch a lot of your Instagram stories and it's like, oh, you guys are having a blast

on there. Fun bro. It's all, that's all we do at the house. It's all about fun. Yeah. We, there's serious moments don't get me wrong, but my wife and I were constantly ripping each other to shreds, especially her on me, you know, there's no room. That's how I grew up too.

Like I got friends, like speaking of comedians and cars, my buddy called me and said, bro, I saw you comedians. You look gold, man, the hell you hung over. Yeah. Like there's no, there's no filter, you know, it's just, that's, we just constantly make fun of one another. And that's like, yeah, I'm hung over from 40 years of our life. That's great.

So yeah. Um, keeps me grounded. What's a DM that you've got from like somebody who is like a fan or like a, somebody who you really admire, like something nice like that, did anything ever happen like that? Like Dennis Rodman sent me a peace sign the other day for no reason and then never wrote me back. Right. This is about two weeks ago.

So did you write him back? Um, from the peace sign? Yeah. I wrote, oh, thanks man. And then, uh, and then I asked him something like, what's going on? You know, do you live in LA or something? And, uh, and I didn't get anything back. Um, but it was just kind of interesting.

Yeah. It's always, it's always, um, the first DM I really got through, it was actually through Twitter was about six or seven years ago and it was from JJ Watt. Wow. He was a rookie in the league and he had reached out to me via Twitter and said that he had been a fan since high school. And then I, and I started to think, wow, I'm really getting old because this guy was in high school when he picked up what I was doing.

Right. Uh, and then we've been, you know, we became fast friends, we've been friends forever since. So that, that was pretty cool. And the rock had posted a clip of, of, he was watching my comedy and he posted up on it. And that, that had to be a unique moment then kind of, well, I mean, out of all the stuff I've done, that one got like, I had people coming out of the woodwork for 20, the rock

put your stuff on his Instagram. It was bigger than any like network and everything bigger than all the specials, everything. One share of the rock. Yeah. Wow. And I was getting like, did you see what the rock did? So yeah, it's, it's cool, you know, to, to, because you don't even know, like when you're doing this stuff, you don't know who you're hitting, who's listening to this right now,

who's seeing your comedy. And with the internet, it gives you an idea of, of, um, you know, how, how far your tentacles are reaching people. And it's cool to see you're like, Oh, wow, he's a fan or she's a fan. I wouldn't think they would like maybe like what I do or what have you, but it's, it's flattering. Yeah. Yeah.

It's interesting how, uh, how much access everyone kind of has to everybody, really. Yeah. I mean, if the internet was around when I was a kid, you know, I'd be like popping DMs to prints going, bro, love what you're doing, you know, like dance, dance, got my disco outfit. Do you think of now as you start to like act in films of, did you ever think that you would do that though? I mean, I, I just feel like it would have to be no, do you ever think that? I mean, I think a lot of comedians think of sitcom or something sometime.

It's kind of a natural train of thought, especially like, you know, coming up in the era and time that you've come up in through comedy, but you ever, do you ever think movies though? I mean, you really, I wanted to do movies, but I wanted to do a little bit more serious roles than comedic goofy stuff. I'm not a goofy guy. You're not. So I'm actually a serious guy and the serious, the serious roles kind of play to my, my real

personality kind of off stage of just kind of being a little bit more straight than, than like, Hey, you know, it's just, it's not, it's not what I do. So I like the fact that this serious dramatic roles give me a nice little departure from what I do to, you know, day in, day out on stage. And I think it's a nice little contrast for me. So yeah, I've always had movies in the back of my mind, not, not to be like a movie star, but to do like projects here and there, a little pop into a movie, pop out, you know, I don't want to be the guy that's like, you know, maybe carrying the movie.

That seems like a lot of responsibility. Yeah. I mean, especially if you don't, you know, do it on a, on a regular basis. But yeah, I like what I'm doing with these movies and I'm fortunate enough to make a living doing stand up where I could do the acting and it doesn't have to feed my family. Right. So I don't have to take a role just to take it. Because movies don't pay anything.

Yeah. I mean, for me, it's more of a exposure and being in a broader, broader audience, similar to, you know, like podcasts, you know, like you go on a podcast and hopefully, you know, coming on your podcast, you know, We'll send people to see the film. Yeah. And, you know, reaching people that maybe don't know who I am or, or a game and see what this guy's podcast is all about and whatnot.

So I like kind of, and also I like you and, and you're a cool cat and it's like, I don't go on everybody's podcast, but, you know, Yeah. No, I appreciate it, man. I mean, I've always looked up to you once ever since I got turned on to you. And I just, yeah, you kind of reminded me always that like, like an entertainer can kind of still, there is still something to that. Like always like, it started to feel like comedy was just about like joke writers and

stuff. And if maybe that was my own, you know, fears or something, but like, oh man, these just, it's just people that are writers that they're putting on stage and, and, but then seeing you was like, oh man, you can still be like an entertainer. You know, you can still be, you can still have dreams somewhere in your head if you're, you know, like, I remember even asking you for advice one time, you said, just go watch Michael Jackson Munich, you know, that's what you fucking told me. And I remember that.

I was at the improv with my wife. I think you met my wife for the first time hanging out at the improv. This is about maybe six, seven years ago, but you were back then in, in maybe I'm wrong by saying this, but back then you weren't a very happy man. You were, you were not as happy as you are right now. Yeah. And you were, you know, you were, I don't know, you were kind of struggling, not, not with your career, but just kind of, I could just feel like when we were talking, you were

in that maybe not, not so good of a place. I remember my wife and I talking as we left, you know, it's such a nice guy, but he feels like he's a little down and whatnot. So is that, is that correct and insane? Yeah, yeah. I think that's pretty true. Yeah. Like a little bit of a wall, like I wasn't going to have, you know, I just didn't know

if I was doing the right thing, the opportunities, you know, didn't seem like they were presenting it any of themselves. But yeah, I mean, that's a good, a good example of someone that might not think it's going to happen and maybe running into these roadblocks and all of a sudden, boom, look at this, we're in, we're in podcast though, you know, I mean, it's like, it, it, it just, it happens, you know? You got to stick with it and next thing you know, you got your own graffiti. It's got to happen.

Oh my God. Do we have any other questions from the crew here? Were any of those guys in the Irishman, like since they're all Italian guys, were they fans of your comedy and watched it and yeah, I didn't know if they knew what I even did or if they knew I was a standup comedian. I didn't know any of that. So going into this, the first day when De Niro came out, he came up to me and he said, uh, I hear you doing good things and I'm like, oh my God, does he, did someone tell him

to say that? Or does he know what day trade? So yeah, I didn't know, I didn't know what the hell they knew and I still don't, I mean, De Niro had came to my show at Radio City after the Irishman, which we talked backstage more than we ever talked on set, I didn't talk to him at all. Really? So you just go do your stuff and then kind of go back to your corner? Yeah.

Well, they went to their corner and I went to my corner and you know, they were talking amongst themselves, like it would be like cut and then De Niro and Pesci and Scorsese would kind of talk amongst themselves and then I'd be like, I wasn't going to go in the huddle and go, yeah, I think so too. You know, like, I was on the sideline, like, I'm going to have another mini snicker over here while these guys predict my future, decide if I'm good enough to hang out here for another minute. Yeah.

Wow, that's, man, that would be very intimidating, man. Well, they all know each other. They work together. Yeah. Right. They got their own thing going. So, you know, I was like the new guy there in that particular scene and, you know, I'm looking at it like if I'm not invited in the huddle.

Right. You know, I ain't going to go over there. Yeah, no, of course. But yeah, I didn't talk to really anyone on set because I didn't know if, it's another thing that y'all cut. I don't know if this guy's still in character or I don't know what he's doing. Yeah, they y'all cut and I'm thinking, okay, you know, I'm me. Yeah.

I'm not, I'm not like doing some like method where I'm like, you know, hold on, let's, you know, they can't talk to me because I'm still crazy Joe Gallo. They're cut and like you said, I'm, you know, getting a little cube cheese, like a cheddar. So I didn't want to like interrupt anybody's process. Yeah. But were you amazed how good of actors they were? I was, I don't really remember. The only thing I do remember is me thinking while I was acting that I couldn't believe

I was doing this with these guys. Yeah. So I mean, I don't even know if that's being in the moment and acting when you're thinking, you know. Yeah, definitely not. But I mean, yeah, I can tell you relate to it like you're in a lifeguard chair up above yourself kind of a little bit. Yeah.

Dude, what are you fucking doing down there? You know? Bro, that's the adult pool, dude. You got fucking flippers on, buddy. But yeah, I could imagine that you're mouth moving and a little bit of your head also talking like, okay, here we go. Yeah. A lot of like inner dialogue while I'm doing dialogue, which I think what comedians do

though, I mean, don't you ever go on stage and talk to yourself in your head while you're speaking to the audience? Sometimes. Yeah. I think that I was actually taking in the moment and I couldn't believe what was happening. But then I'm also acting at the same time, which is probably not the best thing to do, but I'm sorry. I had to.

These are like the guys I grew up watching. Yeah. Man, it's kind of crazy because especially like being, you know, being an Italian guy, you grew up. I mean, those are the guys, you know, that are still alive. Those are the guys. Yeah. And so that's the one, the brother, Sylvester, who's the brother Frank, Frank Storm?

Dude, I see Frank, the gym always trying to pump a lot of young buckets, you know, all the time, but we can always take that out if we need to, but that's an edit. But I know a lot of guys that have been hit on the old Frank Stallone. He's almost like Paulie Short at CVS. Paulie used to try to bang every girl that was looking for a birthday card at CVS. Oh, I know nine girls that have been, I was just looking for a birthday card for my father and Paulie Short came around the bin. I've heard that story so many times, bro.

It's crazy. It's a really good ground because you know there's a woman there who's like sentimental. She cares about her. She's caring, you know. At least you know you're not, you know, you're meeting somebody that's not somebody that's picking out a fucking, you know, 24 pack of fucking hot nuts over about a sprite, you know, like who's that girl? Who is that?

Wow, man. So, does it feel a little bit like, like when you're working with your idols, is it almost then hard to find like what's next to keep you excited or is that? German dialect. It's really true. It's very, no, honestly, you're right. It's, it's insane, bro. It's something that you, after that experience, that experience probably should have came

at the end of a career, but it came at the kind of like the beginning. So it's like, where do you go from there after you're coming off such a big high? But yeah, I mean, I just want to do stuff that I really, really passionate about and with people who are really talented and know what they're doing. Wow. So. And the, you're going to be dancing in this, in the new film you're going to do? No, no, no.

No, no, no. Disco in the 70s and I'm like the, one of the fathers of disco just because of the way this Georgia marauder did a lot of sounds and music behind the vocalist. He was, you know, responsible, responsible for Donna Summer in short, but yeah, there's no dancing. Oh, dang. You know, there's a couple of scenes I'm in, but there's, there's no, there's no, although if that it requires dancing, I am more than happy.

Yeah. I just see you doing that. No, I gotta tell you, I grew up dancing. Oh, yeah. We, we went to the dance clubs. That's all we did. Did y'all like sock hops? YMCA?

What'd you guys go to? No, we went to, um, they used to call them dance parties and the sock hop. This was, this was at a, this was at a, at a Sunday night at a bar called Totos, which turned into a teen dance club on Sunday night. Right. So we'd go and me and my buddy Francesco had these shirts made up and on the, on the back of the, to talk about weird, your audience will love this, uh, we had on the back of the shirt, Italian boys and we used to, me and him used to do the same move with these

shirts on. So you guys are synchronized Italians, synchronized Italian dancers. Like we would practice all week because we thought we were going to pick up girls because of the way we danced, right? But this is like eighties. So many hand movements. You put your fucking buddy's eye out, your buddy's got on fucking. There was a lot of up here, you know, the hands were always up by the head for some

reason, let a look offs. So, uh, that's the whole, like my, my, my, from 16 years old to about 22, I had a fake ID at 16 and my fake ID was unbelievable. And who's was it? Was it actually you or is it somebody else's name? It was me. Wow. My dad actually helped me get it and I used to buy alcohol for guys that were older than

me. We were, we were going to the clubs. I didn't really hang out in high school. I didn't go to the basketball games, football games. What we were doing was we were going to dance parties and then when we got the ID, we were going to bar. So I was 17. I was hanging out at, you know, on over 21 nightclubs and dancing.

I didn't wear the Italian boy shirt to the, to the, that was a limited time. Yeah. It was a limited, you know, a summer. So great. So yeah. That's what we were. That's, that's kind of how I grew up that, that whole, you know, taking care of the car. You know, I used to drive a 1982 Seville with a white walls, uh, spoked rims.

Beautiful. Beautiful. Slanted back trunk. Oh yeah. That's sexy, bro. Put that out with the outline of the spare tire. Yeah. Oh God.

With a spoke rim on the back. Oh yeah. Man. Yeah. Class is different now. Isn't it? It just, it's different. Things seem a little less classy.

Yeah. I think it's a lot less classy. I just, there's like a decorum back then, at least where I grew up, that you kind of, you had respect for your elders. You, you know, you just, if you did something, you didn't want to like embarrass your family. Yeah. You know, like. Now people sue their families.

They can hire a lawyer. Like I'm suing all of you motherfuckers for raising me. It's just crazy. It's gotten crazy. It's crazy. I don't have any respect anymore. It's different. Well, the family dynamic is not there anymore.

You don't have, you don't have the family anymore. Everybody's too wrapped up in a video game or, and I don't mean to sound like some old man, but the way we grew up, and I think the way our family was structured was, you know, you sat at the kitchen table and you were talking to your parents. There was no like, your attention span wasn't here or there. It was like, we're eating. And, you know, we'd sit at the table for two hours just talking to my parents. My parents were the type of parents where everybody wanted to hang out at our house.

It was my parents were like, like the fun, you know, they loved my friends and talking to them. And we all. Like the end of the movie and the book. The green book. Yeah. Yeah. Similar to that vibe where everybody's around and eating, eating kind of like food brought

everybody together. But anyway, you just don't see that now. It's just, it's, it's, it still exists. And I think people are longing for that, but now it's like, you know, you go out to a restaurant, you see a family, everybody's on the device. Everybody's dialed out. Yeah. The devices are part of our lifestyle.

Don't get me wrong. It's not like you have to totally put it, put it away. But even with our kids, we're teaching them, you know, you get it for a small amount of time. And then after that, you know, let's, let's get back to the barata. Yeah. Let's fucking get into what matters over here. There's no app better than barata.

All right. I got a fucking hot batch of barata that fell off a boat in Providence. I want you to try. Good on you guys then. Yeah. What you got, Jenny? We just have one patreon question for Sebastian. All right.

And it is from Faye Dvorcheck. And if you were invited to a potluck dinner, what homemade dish would you bring and who would you bring? Not your wife. Someone else. Potluck dinner, what would I bring? There is a Sicilian dish called pasta tie-on, which is, which is pasta layered with strip steak, pine nuts, some red, it's a red sauce.

It's layered. Wow. It takes a long time to make. You don't hear about that a lot. No, it's very, very specific to, actually it's not even Sicilian, it's a town in Sicily called Cefalu, where my father's from. It's very specific to that town. And who would I bring?

My father. If it wasn't my wife, I'd bring my father. My father's a character. He is? He's a hairstylist and he's, he's where I pretty much get a lot of the, he thinks he's a comedian behind the chair. You know, everybody, everybody loves my dad at the salon. He must be so proud of you then, huh?

My dad is very proud. He's 74. He's still cutting hair. He's still young. Well, I mean, 74 to be cutting hair, I mean, it's like, people want, it's a young business. It's not like people are walking in the salon going, I'll have the guy with the ARP card cut my hair. You know, his client.

He thinks everybody's going to the military? He's fucking getting kind of crazy. Well, he's not a barber. He's a stylist. Oh. So he does women's hair. He does, he does colors. He does all that stuff.

But he's had clients for, for 40 years and they're passing away, they're, they're dying and in the will, they are requesting my father to do the last shabbos, huh? He's had hair. So my father's going to funeral parlors and he loves it because they don't say nothing. They don't, you know, they don't ask, you know, he just does what he has to do. He's just leaning over. Hey, I did the hair. Oh, who would have fucking, that suits horrible, but hey, look above these.

Yeah. That's crazy. So yeah, that's, uh, yeah, he's very proud. My whole family's very proud. Yeah. I do embrace sometimes like how, uh, is it hard like, like I get worried sometimes as my career gets bigger that like, you know, I don't want my family to ever think that I'm different or anything.

Does that, do you ever worry about that kind of stuff? No, I think, I mean, listen, I'm 46 years old. I've been at this for 21 years. I've been the same guy when I moved out here in 1998 that I am now regardless of success or what has happened to me over the last three or four years, very, very grounded coming into Los Angeles, um, with family and friends and, uh, no, I mean, my family is, you know, they're, they treat me as if, uh, you know, I was 21 or 24 years old when I first came out here. There's, there's no difference.

Yeah. It's, it's pretty much the same. Yeah. I think it was, I think I asked you that last time too, and it was kind of a similar answer, but that's awesome, man. It's, it's cool to hear. It's inspiring and it's, uh, insightful. Wow, man.

Living your dreams, dude. Living the dream and dreams that you didn't even have, dude, the VMAs, VMAs and, uh, yeah, the, when I first came out here, it was, it was stand up comedy. That's all I wanted to do, just stand up comedy. I didn't, uh, I didn't, like I said, put on any goal. There's no goals. It was just to do stand up comedy and then whatever happened after that was like gravy to me.

Like, for me to be in the position I'm in to, to do all these really great things. I'm very, I never take it for granted. I'm very fortunate and, um, I'm always wondering, you know, like for me, the fear is to try to stay consistent and, and not, you know, like whatever comes up is going to come down eventually. Right. But you kind of want to get to a certain place and just, and really maintain, you know, like that's why when you go to my show, I'm always trying to rewrite new material just

to bring the people back or, you know, go on shows like this and give more of a little bit of, um, my personality and personal side of me. So people get to know, um, the ins and outs of, uh, of who I am. So yeah. And bringing people along on your journey, you know, it's pretty cool. I think, um, yeah, a lot of people just, they want to kind of know what it's like just from like a regular perspective, you know, not from like something that's very canned. Um, you know, they want to fresh out the garden, you know, fresh out the garden.

Um, yeah. So you had this bit the other day, we were talking about swimming, which is great. I'm not going to talk about it because, uh, you know, I know that, you know, people will be coming out to see it, but, um, over at UCLA that bit you were doing. Yeah. So I'm swimming. I started swimming. I'm 46 years old and I never learned to swim before and I'm taking swimming lessons

at UCLA with a, uh, an ex Olympian who's, who's German actually, right? I learned the accent at the same time. Um, one last thing. So you were saying, let me get this, let me get this thought right. Um, did you start to worry at some point that if you got married or settled down or something that it was going to damage like your thinking process or your performance process or anything like that, when it came to stand up early on, I thought that way. I thought, Hey, I don't want anything kind of impeding my process here of like touring.

I don't want a girlfriend telling me, Hey, you can't go on the road because we haven't spent time together. So early on, I thought, let me just get to where I need to get to. And then, you know, then maybe I'll, I'll find someone settled down, have a family. I don't think I could have done what I'm doing now with kids and a wife 10 years ago, just because of the amount of time and energy it takes to, to put in. I told my agent, I said, book me wherever you can. I don't care if it's Monday through Sunday in Las Vegas, 14 shows, I'll do whatever

it takes to establish an audience and whatnot. So when you've got kids and a family at home, that's very difficult. I really don't know how guys do it. It's, it's, it's amazing when I hear like three kids and he's, you know, trying to, to get to the top. But for me, the personality I have, I'm like, kind of all or nothing. So now I just think it happened organically for me when I met my wife, it just, it's kind of all fit, right place, right time.

This is like, let's go on this journey together, we'll start having kids when, you know, we, we could afford it and then available for the kids. So yeah, in early on, I definitely did not want to have a family and or a, a steady that would kind of keep me from where I wanted to go. Yeah. Which is kind of selfish, but you have to be though a little bit, you have to have a little bit of selfishness to, to put the time and energy it takes to, to get to where you need to go.

There's a lot of sacrifice. I think people don't really realize, you know, like even over the years, like I've had to miss a lot of people's weddings, like events back at home, I lost friends because I said I would be at the wedding and then I couldn't make it, you know, because I just got a new agent and they just got me a weekend and I didn't want to lose them. You know, just, uh, it's a lot of weird sacrifice that people don't understand sometimes pets come home. You're fucking past the dead, you know, yeah, I never had that happen, but are you serious

really? This is a whole group of us that have a fucking lost animals, bro, just because you went on the road. Oh my God, no, for me, it was no pets, no girlfriend, no kids, and I, and I, and I totally relate to you, uh, when you said missing weddings, I missed a really good friend of mine's wedding back in Chicago, uh, because I just didn't have the money to go and I had to work. I was working as a waiter, you know, and, and, you know, unfortunately I, I probably made the wrong decision at the time.

I probably should have found a way to go, but, uh, yeah, there, you're right. There's a lot of sacrifice you got to make if you want to, uh, if you want to succeed. Uh, hopefully you don't lose friends doing it, but, um, it's the risk you got to take. Man, best of luck, man. Thanks so much for coming on. Um, and, uh, and we'll put all of your stuff at the beginning and tell people about the film and yeah, man, that was so cool seeing you in the green book, man. Well, thanks, man, it was nice to see me up on the, the big screen is pretty cool.

Did you start to feel yourself like towards it, like you're like, oh wow, I kind of got the hang of this a little bit. Yeah. Like, I mean, I think your assessment on the acting from, from front to back was, it was that inaccurate. Uh, it, that first scene was a, like I said, the first time I've ever done and then as I shot that out of the can and, and got to know the director more, Peter Fairley was the director and, and you know, there's another guy, I love his comedy movie.

So it was another intimidating working with him and, and I was just hoping to get it right. And then, um, you know, the scenes after that, I felt a lot more at home. It's just like anything else. You go to first day of school, you don't know what to expect. You're probably not yourself. And then after you make a friend or two, you start to kind of let down your guard. Um, hopefully when I'm moving forward, I could act when I, when I, when it's the first day of shooting, I could act like it's the second week of school.

Right. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. A little more dialed in. Yeah. You know, maybe we got a gun on your waist. Maybe he got a knife strapped to my back. I don't know.

Uh, Sebastian Manezcalco, thank you so much, man. Best of a, best of luck. We look forward to seeing you everywhere. Thank you, bro. Now I'm just floating on the breeze and I feel like these leaves, I must be cornerstone. Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this piece of mind. Oh, for me to set that parking brake and let myself on my, shine that light on me. I'll sit and tell you my story.

Shine on me. And I will find a song, I will sing it just for you. And now I've been moving way too fast on a runaway train with a heavy load in my hand. And these wheels that I've been riding on, they're worn so thin that they're damn, they're gone. And now they just weren't built to last. I'm gonna shine to make sense of what I can, of where I'm going, of where I'll be. Shine that light on me.

I'll sit and tell you my story. And I will find the words to help you make it through If you call my name, I'll sing them to you Shine that light on me, I'll sing and tell you what's going to be Shine on me and I will find a song, I will sing it just for you, oh, I will shine Shine on me and I will find a song, I will sing it just for you, oh, I will shine Shine on me and I will find a song, I will shine
