Thank you, John. Dude, too much. Well, my name is Chris Loks, a minor executive producer of the Adam Carolla show. And with me, as always, curl archivist superfan Giovanni. Everybody, happy Saturday. So we brought the 14 years of all the history of the show. One of these clips, they're celebrating 11 years and it's like, Now that's crazy. They know it's like real. So we're like, Oh, this crazy 11 years. And now it's like, we're even doing that. All right, before we get going with our clips, I want to remind everybody, if you want to submit a clip request, you can email us, send it to classics at Adam Carolla dot com or find Geo or myself on Instagram, Facebook, whatever. Let us have a live show. Yeah. Let us know what you want to hear and we'll we'll see if we can locate it and play it on a Future Curl Classics episode. So we're going to kick it off with a clip from 2017, and we're going to feature Dana Gould, who is an Adam Carolla show. Hall of Famer. He's been on for many years, even back dating back to the radio days, and a tradition that we always do whenever he comes on is we play. Hewas jewels were Dana Gould will do a hewill Howser impression while we watch old clips of Huel Howser or you're channeling this crazy bit. It's unparalleled. Like no other podcast has Jules Jules. They can make fun of your house or all they want, and we could be completely oblivious of Adam Carolla doing it first or the Eagles impression. But nobody can do this. It's Adam Crowley's show. Twenty 84 Dana Gould Vinny Audition on this portion. Geographic Bryan Bishop. This one is from October 2017. We got the data coming in the studio with some news about hey, almost record setting number of deaths in a single month. And then we get the hills, Jules. This one is heavy on a trashcan lid assault. Now there's very specific rules, rules that people have been requesting forever. This might end vertically be the one that people want. There's like two who's one of them has a trash can with a salt. There's a couple other ones that they reference a very specific details. We've almost played them all. So if this is one of the ones you've been requesting for years, I've been camping, let me know and more give you a credit next week. But until then, I hope you enjoy this, chuck. It is hilarious. We were just talking about pets off the air. Dana was listening, said he lost four in one month. Yeah. Ready. Yeah. No, no, no. In one week and one week last month. Yeah. Hmm. Very quickly between two households. My my ex-wife, I live very close to my ex-wife. We have three kids together. We're very much a family unit. Still, my I have two dogs. My ex-wife has a dog, a little dog that she loves and my daughter has two cats for my daughter's birthday. I got her a kitten. So now she has three cats. But she's a crazy cat lady. She loves him. Last month, I get a call. One of the cats is up my house. The cat runs out of the house, goes under the porch. This happens all the time, so I'm going to go get. It won't be a problem. I'm going out to get it. I get a call. Get out of the house right away, but get down here right away. All right. Somebody, somebody hurt. Oh, I just you under the porch. I'll get you later. Get out of the house. Somehow, I was not there. The kitten came out of the dryer, out of the dryer with a load of clothes. Oh my god. How did that happen? What I surmise was the kitten was came out in the laundry as an ex kitten, as an angel, as an angel. OK, and that's all we know now and fluffy as hell. But I think it was playing in the in the laundry laundry, got put in the wash gene. And hey, it's a start and there's nothing good about it. Can I tell you as somebody who voluntarily climbed inside a big coin up laundry like the kind for the comforter to coin out place when I was about 19 because it was like cheap thrills back then, and for the internet, it's rough and it's hell on Earth. It is because it's a lot about those things and they got those big metal fences around it. There's nothing. And that's when I had and was the only thing standing between me and daylight was my buddy Ray because they latch on the magnet. Yeah, yeah. And that's where I had to give. Like as a as a guy, they give you three. I'm serious. Did you get three of those? And I used up one of my shirt. I wouldn't have done it. Yeah, you would think, you know, hindsight being twenty two, I probably should have gone in there, but everyone else was so, so so so that can't one with that. Yeah, that sucks. We don't even it's like, it's like being Roman Polanski, the not one, not what he did to the young model, but that to his ex-wife. I just don't think about it. Yeah. If something happened and I wasn't there and it's a ghastly thing, you know, to think about, share went up to my house. That other cat gone two cats and one day under the porch cats under the porch cat did not come out. And I'm assuming that he was a there's a chubby or coyote somewhere. Yes, and we're where Dana is. I know where Dana is. Yeah, it's just Coyote Central. And if you have any dog that weighs less than 60 pounds, you can't leave him out at night. And no cats can stay out at night like the coyotes. Just make. Yeah. Make off with that. So that was in one day. So at the end of that week, we felt terrible, obviously, and we wanted to get a, you know, we said to my dog, Well, let's go get another cat. What do you want? She's like, I want to. I want a dog. And she wanted the German Shepherd and my wife was like, I don't want to get a German shepherd because a German shepherd attacked my dog when I was a kid. And it was very traumatic. But my daughter was really adamant and we felt so terrible. We're like, OK, so we go to the German Shepherd Rescue, we bring my wife's dog, we find this husky rescue. The dogs get along great. They're playing, they do the test, we walk them, they heal. Everybody was great. We brought it home within 24 hours. They killed my wife's dog and I had to bring it back to my shelter that day. This is why you don't adopt people. So you're listening. Dogs, kids. Well, you can't. You just have to make sure you get the right kind of thing. Well, and that was quite an upgrade from a small kitten to a giant German shepherd. Yeah, it was. It was a husky and the husky had killed your ears. My wife's dog, the wife's dog, your ex-wife. Yeah, ex-wife, dog in your in your in front of her after she said, I don't want to get a big dog like this because I want to take my dog as a kid. If I wrote this as a movie, they would go too on the nose. Now that you guys are divorced, you can explain to her how it's basically her fault, because then you do this. Anyone else ever have a dog that was killed by a German shepherd? Now, how about two now? Well, obviously you're doing something, sweetheart. Yeah, I wouldn't recommend it while you're married right now. Now that we're done this equation. So that happened. And we were. I'm not comparing it to 911, but we did have a sense of what just happened. Wow. About a month. What's that co-pay like with a therapist now for the kid? It was. It was. It was astounding. And, you know, kittens in and having kittens. It's like living with a suicide cult anyway. Like if kittens could leave notes, they would all be inadvertent suicide note going too far. I know what the coyotes are howling about. Bob, I like I was laughing with the damn shack and on there good, good sports, which was I was laughing about how insecure everyone is and how they wear it on their sleeve. The dog people, how they go. I don't like cats, I don't like cats because I'm gone all day at work and I come home and they barely even look up. Dog comes running up, showers me with affection and praises the dogs excited that I came home from the postal sorting facility. An hour later, that dog just popped the cats like, Oh, who cares, you're home. So well, guess what? I guess Steve's home or not, okay? And it's like how much validation you need for your pet and why are you telling me this? And I always I said, You know, both of your corpse cats bury their crap and that gets buried in the in the lead. You know, you bury the lead with that. Like my dog is £110 lab, who takes a nice big duke in the backyard every day. And it's a full time job like looking after that huge cleaning it up. And it's always the thing with the kids. We're going to go play for it. They'll hold on. Phil's took a job. Yeah, it's your car, sweetie. Don't forget the mini rake and the Mini should go. Get it sunny pooch. Now put your shoes on like it's a big thing because we have the astroturf. We are the worst family ever because here's how. Here's how my wife. This is my life. This is my wife. This is my world. This is my kids. This is how it works. I remodel the backyard. I do it all up so the kids can have a big place to run around. I lay down the expensive astroturf. It's got a little bit of gray, a little brown in it. So look, Sky Color California, whatever it looks, real doesn't look like plastic. Yeah, yeah. It doesn't look like a Brady Bunch backyard or Steven Seagal's had. You know what I mean? It's real, you know, why wouldn't you whole thing and the dogs duke spot it can. It can range about 14 inches, but it's dead nuts in the middle astroturf and we as much as we go, Phil used the dirt come on, hit the dirt by the cactus, come on over it. Just he he dumps right in the middle. Sure, we're powerless. There's nothing we can do but argue about it. And so we're we're moving on to fight another day, but we to go up there and clean everything. Cat digs a hole, buries it, and you don't even know where it went. And I was thinking about it and I thought, All right, so that's neither here nor there. But let's replace cat and dog with a roommate, one roommate. Doesn't really even know you exist, and when you come home doesn't even lower the sports page to say Hi. He's there, but he takes a dump in the toilet, right? The other one that runs up, I ask you if you've lost weight because your boss wants to know if you've been working out for dinner, but tends to take dumps like we're all right in the middle of the living room. I just really would just defecate like you walk and he'll be taking a dump in which room what you want. Like, I feel like the one I didn't want you to make, right? Yeah. As I said, after the first thing I did after I got divorced was get a chihuahua because I missed getting yelled at. And it's like having a small Mexican roommate that doesn't chip in but really hates birds. I hate Chihuahua. Stop sitting on the floor and watching me while I cook. I my least favorite debris. I must say but, but I love our animals have been replaced. Just like when a person dies, we just went out and got another one. Yeah, so wait a minute. We have the kitten in the washer. We got the cat under the sink. We got on the porch, the German Shepherd, that's been. And then the other one got returned. Yeah. So the miniature poodle was killed by the husky, and then the husky went back to dog prison. Right. So that that that's a head count of four. Yeah, it's had. Jennifer was our dog for a day. All right. Dana Gould here. We always like to do a little a little. What do we do? He also jewels. That's Ryan of Chicago. I have never heard of what we set the table weather before. So you got the intro? Why don't we? Uh, why don't we do that? I love driving through trees, a ceiling filled with baseball hats. Oh boy. Here's the place to get socks. Get ready for an adventure. It's time to go. Digging for heels. Jules Carollas excited on the Adam Carolla show. All right, so you went to the See's Candy store? Yes. And factory, it appears we have five clips. Why would he need a lot of candy for know? I love these sweets. Oh, all right. So we have had a blackout. Your van windows and we're going to seize candy. I just I can't tell you how many people when he was alive were like, I'm in a restaurant. Your house is right next to me. Well, don't tell him you're a friend of mine who's a former marine and large man. All right, so we have our first clip. Gary, how many clips do we have? Five. Let's listen to. She had a sweet, beautiful face with dark eyes and white hair pulled back in a bon truth of the matter is she was the perfect image of the perfect mother and grandmother. She was also a fine example of California's gold. There she is. That's the internet, the cold, open air, Mrs. That's right. He'll find mother and grandmother. Yeah, yeah. That sounds like she's from Alabama. Not so much California. Also, she was her own aunt. She all is down at the famous. So this is this is early because his hair's not white and is old trimmer young. He's got his marine. He's got his marine. Looks dull. All right, let's hear it now. Your name is my name is Gerry Condon, and you are here to show us around this store because you've been with CS for a while. Yes, since 1949. So you know a little bit about this. Yes, I do. Well, tell us if we were now understand this store. This particular store has been here since about 1940. That's correct. If we had walked in here in 1940, would it have looked and felt just about the way it does today? Just about the same with a few improvements. Like what? Like our self-service case and our gondola with the special items? Uh-Huh. But the plate rail and the lighting, the lights are the same. So wait a minute. This was a plate rail like my grandmother used to have. That's correct. Did they used to have plates on them? No, not that I know of. It's not always what they called up a plate rail. And again, the reason that you're propelled to him is because he has that low level intensity in his speech. And as you say, it's about nothing, as you said, like in the Baghdad. So this is a photo that you bought. And there's just a level of interest for something that defines no interest. Right? But you do get that sense that that nothing is beyond his capability. So you have to expect in every interview, damn to just go now. So here's what we're going to do. I'm going to start battering you with a trash can lead. And you tell me when you're a think you're going to pass out, I'm I'm going to. I like all my favorite kind of slap on. An elderly woman has an open palm. I like a flat, open palm on the side of the hand, so I'm going to hold the trash can live by the handle and do the best I can to hit you square and and the Marriott. The more you try to block it, the harder it's going to come. I'm telling you now and you just tell me first, you're going to get tunnel vision. You won't go black, but everything is going to tell little black at the end of a cartoon that's called Iris. And that's what I want you to give me some kind of signal. All right. So a safe word hand up something like that. Yeah, I mean, you guys say, Well, how would I know? Keep rolling. Hi, guys. Yeah, God. Mrs. C's picture right here on the wall. Elizabeth, you're the manager here. Well, actually, ma'am, acting manager. Acting manager. But this is she is looking over. Everything you do every day isn't right. That's right. With all of my exciting stuff, that's Mrs. season I like. He reminds the one African-American employee that there's a white woman behind her watching her all the time. OK, you don't try anything again. I'm not trash can lead. Don't, don't try to block it. Don't try to block it. Go. We have a show to do, and I know what creates drama. Don't try to block it. You all like a nice metallic thunk, either side of you. We have a simple cool is now going back into the bowels of CES. There's a lot of the you remember the road warrior with Mel Gibson before they remade it with Charlize Theron. There's a lot of the great humongous. Yeah, and a lot of the great humongous. Yeah, just wearing himself like a pleather G-string. Exactly a bunch of boy toys strapped to the front of the dune buggy. Man one behind him on the motorcycle, on a dog leash. There's a lot of there's a lot of humongous and I'd like to get together with the guys who did Road Warrior and the guys who did Beastmaster and like just during some of the preliminary pitches like so he lands in a castle. There's a lot of guys were in thongs and there were knee high boots and they got gag ball gags and then they got claws, leather, more leather because their album, but their whole chest and everything shaven and limited like razor seems gay. He seems a little gay now. What are you talking about? It's leather. It's manly. I remember XDA's with Sean Connery. I want. I want to wear shorts. Yes, with no shirt, but suspenders. Yes. That's the worst outfit in the history. It was now you're an expert, Dawson on Beastmaster, Mark Singer Was it supposed to be gay and or. And how much of Road Warrior was supposed to be gay? And then why was it supposed to be gay? I think road warrior definitely leaned a little bit towards gay, right? The Beastmaster. That was all unintentional. They thought that was the coolest thing being chased by a guy in a leather swimsuit, with a shoe, with a hoodie, with one of the gimp math and clogs your castle. Yes, but what? But what have you told any therapist? Hey, I had a dream. What happened? I was in a castle, and these guys know they never spoke there. About 30 of them. They're very well-built, by the way. Very well. And they just chased me all through the castle in their leather and underpants. I've never come out of I've never before or thought of describing men's nipples as crispy, but that's the only way I can. It just comes to mind. Yes. And the weird thing, the road warrior. And then that guy went on to make Babe Pig Movie, which Miller, George Miller, George Miller will do. Pig George Miller made Mad Max, the road warrior and then the Road Warrior three. And then he had kids. It's like, Well, I'll make some movies for my kids. So he made Babe Babe to pagan pretty happy feet like these amazing movies and oh, my kids are grown up now I'll go make another road warrior movie in the road, and they're all fantastic in their own way. And they're all of me. A look at this guy and tell me this is a very Homo rock parade on Fire Island. Where would this guy be in terms of the march? Like it's he's he's wearing chaps. Here's the interesting thing about this. I'm assuming this is Beastmaster. Yes, OK. Underneath the chaps and the leather jockstrap, there's a there's a thin subtext of heterosexuality underneath it all. I really got a thick, razor thin. All right. So again, I don't rocking heels going into the bowels now see signing Aaron and the pals. I don't feel like we're coming into the inner sanctum. This is the inner sanctum. That's where all the goodies are. Oh boy, now this really smells good in here. Oh, this is the peanut brittle. The carbon and pager on his helpers are going to take off this batch right over here. Oh, peanut brittle. Look, we got here just in time. Just in time. They make it for sale, including holiday. Now what do you do with that? That's that's ball. And that's hot right now is peanut brittle. He's at his best when he tries to talk to legal service, just trying to keep their job and shield their faces. No, no, you say no, you don't end up on camera. Yeah, and they they are. They only know our culture from American television. They think it's and b from the Andy Griffith Show. I, by the way, let me just say this right now virtually. I've never asked. I've never asked you for anything in our in our. I've never. I've never. You just give you just take. Could can someone just get me the WAV file of you're saying peanut brittle so I can have that for my phone rang. You got it. And I'm honest. I'm totally honest. Peanut brittle. I will tell you how. Where would it be like I get that on my phone in the first, you know, peanut. Oh, that's a fun. Hey, mom's dead. Oh no, no. Hey, peanut brittle. We lost our spider monkey. Sorry, fat brittle. One of the special Peanut Brittle is such a traditional item that goes right back to the beginning of season history. And now, look, if you still use the big pop, that's still way that tastes best. Small batches, that's peanuts we can buy. Does it really taste better doing it out of the out of the pan? Like this? Absolutely. That's a cattle at all. Now, what's he put in there? Well, he puts a little soda in there, huh? Brings it up. Flush it up, sir, it's turning it up more palatable and they're going to be all right. Sometimes sometimes you have to put something in someone's food or drink to get it the way you want it to. That's the lesson learned. Oh, and the brittle. Now we're going to pour it out. That's right. There you go. Oh, love. Oh, look. Yeah, that doesn't look good. Imagine this quaint, little imagined liquid peanut brittle sloshing against a flat surface. I don't know if anybody has ever had. Nobody does. Oh, baby, get into the Chipotle color. No one does a color commentary like here. Oh, look. Wow, that's awesome. And we do it this way. It's better as that. Better this way. But it's all me. You call me a liar. So we're down in the bowels of. If we're underground, if you were to scream at the top of your lungs, no one could even hear you up in the store. What is this? A schlaug deadbolt? What kind of boat is this? All right, let's play one more Gary's heavy paddle. You know, they're like a trash can lid, but it's more of a bowl affect. Boy, you've got to be strong to do that, don't believe what it takes, that's hard. That's like, wait, wait to see what we want to do with the battle right now drenching them. Oh gosh, look, yeah, that's. They're wrapping the brain all around it. They don't going to pay my bills for the honey, for everything he's saying is better if you don't know what they're doing it. Oh my God. Nothing homo erotic about this at all. Looks like a more constrictor. Yeah, nothing, nothing to see here. But that's hard, it's like a hard boa constrictor, but you're muscular, man, you're really pulling at it. You're really putting so much weight. Oh yeah, it beautiful. She'll be here. She'll be missed. I think he passed. It's been five years. Yeah. Not only did I tell you the story that I can tell you on the air that I heard about him. Mm hmm. I'll have to tell you off the air. Peanut brittle. Thank you. All right. Died in 2009, 13 January. That's great. Coming right up on five and he had a big, big, weird house down in Palm Springs, right? Which everyone would always tweet me is for sale. Yeah. All right. Should we do a little with a whatever a boy garden is? I don't know. Oh boy. And that was heures jewels featuring Dana Gold back in 2017. The assault committed some always gets so very specific. It's like this is the trash can live with the roller coasters or the one who quotes. Do you like roller coasters? M4 is like, which one is this? So hopefully people enjoy it. Yeah. Either way, if Dana goes on, you're going to get a classic episode was just how he works. All right. Our next clip. This is a listener request from Lance. He writes, Hey guys, I'm a big fan of the show. I listen all the time. I have to request. The first is I heard an interview that I was on with someone that was unfamiliar with. That was Andrea Savage. She was great. She's very funny and also this planet. Yeah. And the second clip is I was reminded when Chris was talking about Linda Ronstadt being featured on The Last of US, and I was wondering where I've heard that song and it dawned on me. I heard it on accidentally change could find where we originally played that song and talked about how I was one of the most underrated love songs. Thank you. Yes, the lance. Thanks for one one. Thanks for writing, and thanks for that request to the reason I did that story is because Adam has been singing the last singing Linda Ronstadt adds song for a long, long time. I think that's what's called for four years. He's been talking about it. How emotional it was. I first learned about it from him, and it is an incredible song, so it's kind of cool seeing it really get it to do being played in mainstream. On the show, The Last of US. So when I when I saw that it was trending and it was becoming an actual thing, kind of very similar to Kate Bush's running up that hill, I thought I got a let out of no and no. Yeah, he was really pleased with it. Adam does have a few of these songs that I refer to as a 1980s Volvo Headrest Music, sure. But that's how I remember the stuff. And like, I kind of was too young at the time to appreciate them. But the now flashing back, there's a couple of times one was like a dude reflecting on his relationship with a woman over the years, and I just like the sad thing about how they're old now. And that was the ultimate Oh man, like that would have hit me when I was three. But now I get this another one. And I love that opening request and we'll play. Probably next week for him is because this episode actually has another savage but savage. This is Adam Carolla show 16:44 with Lee Savage, the screenwriter of Straight Outta Compton. A bunch of other stuff like a Tupac movie. Great guest. And he mentioned Andrea Savage, the weird thing that he's talking about two summer episodes with being unaware who this guest was Du Geographic Brian Bishop in this clip. This is where Adam talks about it, and it's exactly what you want to hope you enjoy. Hey, Matthew. Yes. Line three to five. Saratoga, California, What's going on? Not much, man. I was wondering, what would I know? You listen to a lot of music? So I was wondering which song was the last song that made you shed a tear cry a little bit? I just meant that I'm sure there are many songs that have done that because a song can bring that out in me. But Linda Ronstadt, I think it's called long, long time are still going to miss you or whatever. It's always up. There's the saddest. One of the saddest love songs ever, and if you if you've ever just gotten dumped or broken up with or feeling melancholy about a relationship, do not listen to this. Linda Ronstadt song because it is just. It's called it's called a long, long time. I think I'm going to miss you for a long, long time. I can't figure out you'll know it. You'll know when it hits you, but it'll you'll bust open like a coconut and tears of this company. You got a picture getting dumped. I think I done. I think I was about 19 living in my garage. No. Well, mom trying to boot me out of there. Take things. Strike. Sounds like. Look, there's no. Wash is clean. You're really on a temporary well, I see. Yeah, this is when you had to be able to sing f**king, hey, that's what someone to. But I don't. It means good. I've done everything I know to try and make you my. And I think I'm gonna love you for those who love. It's also one of these sneaky signs where I think she says, I'm going to love you for a long, long time and then at the end I think she goes, I'm going to miss you for a long time, but they swap it on you and it's like, f**k jack my s**t up. It's just a classical, sad, sad song. Me, I didn't. All the way. I've done everything I know. To try and make my. It's going to hurt me. Yes, she does he miss you and then hurt me? How many stupid do you think in the history of use this song for the first? You know, it's happened, it's good for a long, long time. That's right. True. It's so sad. This is the first time I ever heard that song, I never heard this song. Popular before you're born, probably when it's on her best odds and ends with it, knowing that you only have the browser. Do. I love songs that aren't overproduced. Try. Living in the. Every. Never. And to try and shake. Miss you. Long. Crescendo. And you're going to try to. Some point. Thank you. No. The relationship's over, but I will love you are along for many years after that. The soccer player listen and pussy response. That f**king song will nail you if you're in a mood, if you got dumped on, if you're relationships over, if whatever's left your life as Song of f**king drive you into the ground. Yeah, she performed the hell of it too. Yeah. Not Linda can't give give her a man. Chick could sing. Wait a minute and say, Hey Matthew. Yeah, yeah. And answer your question. Yeah, I'm good. I'm good, man. Okay, man, grab a Kleenex. All right. Yeah, I'm good. I'm good. Thanks. OK, brother. That was also 1974, so call me out of the hospital. I heard it in 81 when I was in my dad's driveway, making me cry. 81. You know the period songs. And that was Adam talking about Linda, Ron said before it was cool. Yeah. Love it. Let's look at the time he was talking about like demon guys than then playing Kate Bush. Nobody remembers. Yes, it's exactly like that. So guess fighting this demon has played a key point. I don't know. He's talking about a couple of years later. Stranger Things does it. And yeah. Yeah, he's always ahead of the curve. All right. Vern, excellent. We're going to go back to twenty eighteen and we're going to hear Adam and Rosanna Arquette taking a trip down memory lane for when Adam had a sitcom pilot. Oh s**t. I think Adam's interviewed all the Arquette's Alexis. Rest in peace, Rosanna. Hear Patricia on Loveline, who showed up in a really expensive Porsche for like junk like it was for grocery getter. Not on me. Like, I'm like, creeped in or like back seat to look, make sure look she had in there. It's like, Yeah, it's really weird how she treats your car. And she came on to talk about landmines, a loved one for like an hour, an hour and a half. Just talking about what was Landmine Charity's very noble but very specific in the cage at the time. And David Arquette, of course, has a million lovely stories. The most infamous one showed up out of nowhere while they were talking about him on his way home from a Lakers game. Listening to the show right after being John Malkovich, Rosanna Arquette, of all of them, has the most legendary story were in the podcast era, where his transition for the radio show to the early days of the podcast. One of the sitcoms he had Ball Brian was working on, and we had a bunch of actors come in to audition to be his wife. And he felt it was kind of unfair that, like these women of note who've done all these crazy movies and things he loves have to come in and like Bow before him, like, Can I be on your sitcom, sir? And she had a particularly harsh reaction, like, why am I here? Why do I have to do this? And he was in full agreement. The world was happening. He's talked about it for years. Finally has her in studio to go over it. Adam Carolla Show 23, 78 eight. Rosanna Arquette, Gina Grad, Brian Bishop and this is them going over what happened that day from July of 2018. I was talking before you came in are rehashing a moment you and I had when you were auditioning for a sitcom that I was starring in. And you just looked at me and you went, Do I have to do this? And I'm like, Is this is what is this what my career has come to? Do you remember that? No, I don't. Oh, probably best. What was that kid getting in a horrific car accident and having? No. Was it? It would have been about Brian's going to now 09 or something like that, like on CBS and CBS, that was the worst, one of the worst audition experiences of my life, I have to say, and I forgot it was. I'll tell you it was one tell me all about it because I want to know all about now. You've only done 10000 auditions, so you know what? No, I actually didn't audition for years and years and years. And then it became this thing where you go in to this room and you sit with a group of people who are kind of just got their arms crossed and looking you with a kind of bad. Yes. You looking down our noses? Yeah. And then so I am not good at that. I never been good. I don't even know how I ever got a job because I certainly never was a great audition. Or in fact, I just never have gotten a job from audition. They have to see past that and know that, you know what? I can do this right. But I remember leaving that now that I remember that and I was so humiliated walking, I was like, Oh, I don't even want to do this anymore. It's so awful because it was a really awful experience. What did you do to her? Well, no, I I never had to do the part, by the way. I will figure it out. Or we had to. We had to. No, I know what you're saying, not this version of it. I remember when I would go, when I was super poor and I was like, looking for apartments. And they'd go, OK, well, we'll just run a credit check and then we'll and I'd go, like, No, no, no. Listen, listen, I can. I will pay rent. I always, you know, I will pay rent. OK? Don't look at the credit. We don't need to do that. Just take my word for it. I can do this, you know? And I had that same. That's what you were saying to me, which is like, I don't. What am I doing like? I don't need to do this. You know, I can do this. And I was like, Of course, I know you can do it. It just. It's just it's it's because they're already have a preconceived notion of who you are, what you're going to do. And they and the already they've already made the decision. They don't want her. And I think they just a lot of people just meet everybody just to meet them, who knows. But it didn't seem like there was a lot of enthusiasm, actually when I even walked in the door. Oh man, I'm telling you this. Well, I just want to know who got the job. Amy Landecker. Maybe I could tell there's a there was a few ramp at a couple of sitcom. No, no. I love other girlfriends. I always support them. What so do you remember that is like the worst showbiz experience audition experience. Think it might have been one of them? Wow. I'm pretty sure there's you. And then there was that whole Weinstein incident, but this was with you. No, no, no. Please tell it. I know I wish I had some in the tank. That was the I remember. I remember thinking it could've been. Well, here's the thing that's I grew up watching you in in many movies and being a big fan of your ability and your aesthetic as well. So I was like, I was nobody. So my thing is like, why would anyone whose name I recognize, especially Rosanna Arquette, why does she need to come in and see me write about this? We should just offer her the part or not offer her the part. And it's I sort of feel that way with everything like somebody said, Oh, we want you. I want to get you a gig hosting the whatever, whatever the stand up at whatever and they go other show. I'll send them some of your stand up and they'll either do it or not, but I have to go. I want to go down there and meet them there. Just watch a little stand up and then you can tell whether you want to do it or not. Watch one of your one hundred and twenty three movies. And then we can figure it out. What network wasn't? CBS also was CBS. There was CBS all this on CBS Radford, and I think it was CBS, so it went. Maybe that was just that higher ups who nixed me. You know, I was not. Something happened. But by the way, you know, you did mention the Weinstein thing. You know, those kinds of things happened and you just feel like what is going on here. But who knows? You can't prove it. But what was that? A show business low for you when you left that bungalow? That was one of the show business lows of my life. Oh yeah. Oh my God. At the end, the comeback thus began the comeback that day. Well, back in full effect. What happened that show, anyway? I know that it's going strong. 10TH year and seasonal allergies. We're syndicated. No, nothing more misery. More arguments, more. Time wasting and then nothing. So I hope so. Maybe it's time for you to do what we're doing on Sideswipe. Just go and do a show on something like YouTube, because all these, these streamlining, streamlining networks and platforms, our platforms are really. Look at Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, everybody's now. Now we have YouTube, you know, Prime Premium and the YouTube Originals, and they have a lot planned. Well, look, any time you get out of the way of the person with the idea, I don't want to see the vision. But look, if you want to make music, if you want to make a painting, you know why is making a TV series, a comedy series or drama series, or anything creatively so much different than making an album? That's like someone has some ideas they want, they want to do those ideas. Now, imagine if a gaggle of is from another building just showed up in the recording studios like I am not hearing the bass I want. Exactly. So that is why artists need to express themselves without being censored. And it's really important. And so here are all these like YouTube left us alone. Carly Craig created this show for all of us and for herself, and I was lucky enough to be cast. She wrote me this great love letter, and it was. The writing was fantastic, and they really left us alone and let us do our thing. But look here. Here's the deal. Sorry, I'm bringing it preachy, but you decide whether you want to be in business with Carly Craig or based on seeing her other work or her or her in person or whatever they she. She just offered it to me. You decide if you want to be. If you're a YouTube premium, you decide or if you're Netflix or HBO or whatever you figure out. If you want to be in business with Sacha Baron Cohen or whoever or whatever, and then you definitely do. You get in business with that person and you let them do that? Yeah, right? That's if you want Bill Belichick to coach your football team. Good. Now, leave him the f**k alone and let him do what he does or don't hire him. This notion where he's going to be coaching, going to be standing next to him all the time at every turn, going home. Are you sure you're sure going for it on fourth? You're inside your own. You have to leave alone. And here's the deal. The product will work, or the product won't work, but it'll have the best chance of working if you get the f**k out of that person's face. It will never work if you're hanging around and it's not going to work, really. I mean, she shows do, but you know, it's harder on network television because they owe their people own them and their advertisers, so they have to answer to them. But it's just an insane group process of people who have no creativity at all, just weighing in on every turn. But what? I don't like the the hack. Oh my God, wearing it. I think she's wearing it. I didn't tell her This is a television movie. Way up in Canada. Oh, it was when Eddie Cibrian and and LeAnn Rimes fell in love and did that. So they were doing the movie TV movie. I played LeAnn Rimes, mom, and we all we got was, you know, it was freezing. It was below zero on Thanksgiving, below zero, and they didn't want me to wear the winter hat. It's just it's like you could see our breath come in. There's snow outside. It makes sense she's wearing a hat and it's absolutely freezing. And I'm just like, Why wouldn't she wear it? Has that was the note. Well, it's even like it can be. It can be even worse because the person is in this horrible position, the executive or whomever they have this thing, which is they're getting paid a bunch of money. They have not a creative bone in their body and they're doing the math, which is, I'm getting a bunch of money like, I'm definitely wetting my beak. My name's on this thing. I don't have a creative bone in my body. I can't make anyone laugh. But at some point I got to jump in with an opinion. Otherwise, the next one comes around. People are going to know what the f**k. We need this show up here for it and didn't say anything. So then they come in with an opinion, but they can't come in with an opinion on dialogue because they're not funny and they're not interesting. They're not anything. So they come in with opinion over the curtains that are in front of the sink in the kitchen. And then they come in hard because they're overcompensating and everyone else is going, Oh, who cares, they're curtains, you know? Oh, no, no, no big difference are, I feel strongly about this. And now we have a bunch of people who have no talent who have very strong opinions about things that you don't care about. I mean, nothing. And a certain point, you just start going, Yeah, give them the new curtains, just given the curtains like, shut them up, give them the curtains, shut them up, take the hat off. Just shut them up. Like, just get them to leave the stone, their curtains in their hand shut them up. It's a sad world we live in, but now certainly is now. Now here's the deal. Everyone is out. But they're crushing it with all these Amazon, Netflix and YouTube TV ads and all that stuff, because they're they're not in the business of telling people what to do. They're in the business of selling crap online or showing stuff online, so they let you do your thing. And that's why the product is so good. Yeah, we we had a great time and we're we're hopefully I mean, it's getting great reviews and we're really excited. And people, you can watch eight episodes stream right now. You can watch the entire first season. It's available on YouTube Premium and it's funny and and and and it's very good. And I think the I think the talent much prefers living in that world than they do and that sort of Roseanne's sitcom world and that Rosanna. But the rest of the bad ones? Yeah, there is. Yeah. Oh gosh, that's what is going on there. I would. I just I really it's I'm Laurie Metcalf in her play that she was doing on Broadway and, you know, so excellent. And I just saw Sara Gilbert. So I feel sorry for the rest of the cast and the crew, you know, who work so hard, but I guess they're coming back and doing their own thing. That's that's good. The economy, they're going to just do it without her around the corner. Yeah, she's dead. But the opening up on her funeral, I mean, that's kind of how the finale ended from that bizarre finale for Roseanne, where it was all a story and they won the lottery and and Dan really died and one was lesbian, but one wasn't. I got a question everyone think about. I'm going to tease it. It's like, I do a spot here. But. In Roseanne's heart of hearts, she loves everyone on that show. I think you'd hope so. So is she rooting for The Conners without her? No. A passionate call called a tease, Rosanna, or think about your passion, what did you fail miserably? It just completely out in flames. Or would she be all right with like it's fair to middling rated like it's enough to get three seasons, but it's not taken the world by storm. But her friends get a paycheck. How much you want to bet that Sinclair will be giving her some kind of job and one of their places? Oh oh, really? Sinclair Media, the Sinclair media who are trying to buy up everything. They just, oh, they're trying to buy, apparently just traded by by CNN. But I know there's a paint store. No, they're no. They're there's they're big, huh? Have you seen the Chinese or something? What's going on with them? Yeah, there's no right wing and and they're going to buy her up. They're notorious for the same thing. They're news anchors to copy if you can't find papers. And there's great compilations of news anchors around the country reading the same script and saying just, you know, you know, just I know I know the Koch brothers, but I don't know. Sinclair knows that this clear media. Yes, there is. This combination will blow your mind. We'll find out. Well, we'll get that right. It sure it is it. Yeah, they'll need time. It's pretty Orwellian and try to stay away. It's it's terrible. It's creepy. So Roseanne, are you? I think cat's out of the bag. You think Roseanne is praying for failure for the new show? I mean, I mean, she says she loves everywhere. But I, you know, I'm sure it's it's who knows? I don't know. You jumped in pretty quick. Yeah, I see. Maybe you're maybe that's a glimpse into your psyche. No. Maybe that's the way you think. And that's why you answered so quickly. No, it's not. It's because I am very supportive of people I love. But she she she wouldn't have done it in the first place. Why didn't she watch out what she was doing in the first place with these racist rants when she had a show that was, you know, important and she well, I think she's I think she's not like it's part of her. Something's happened. It's something I know and you know. But you think she's she would like the show to fail? Probably. I wouldn't let her out. Does she have a piece of it? How about you? How about David Arquette in Mexican wrestling? Would you like him to fail as well? No, I don't want him to feel like he just he kind of just had a big fight and he got hurt. And I don't like it. I love his. Performance artist Soul, which is what it is, but, you know, he was seriously training. I know. I mean, really, did he come on and do this? I've talked to him many times, but I literally just saw footage of him. I don't know. Chris never found the stuff I want to see flying scissor kick. I just said, Please don't go Mickey Rourke on us. So I just don't want to go get go. I don't want it go. I don't want to face. He could go. Mickey Rourke. All right. Well, there's the scissor with the swaying in the swing and the spin, and the throw is getting very is deep in a Mexican pro-wrestling, which was is not happy now. He really hurt himself. I can't even watch it and I can't. I'm having a visceral rehabilitation. Yes. Yeah. You like him at this stage to take up a second language or an instrument wrestling woodwork work? You know what I mean? Yeah, like he's just he's. But it's all he and when he does something and it truly is like the artist brain of him, it's not. It's not. He really absolutely train 24-7. I met his incredible trainers and he has a ring in the backyard and it's really, yeah, he does a full. He does. And he was. He meant it. Yeah, we should introduce him to Nick Offerman and get him on a lathe and get him into some woodworking. All right. Let me tell you, we do that. He's he's painting. He's painting a lot too. I'm I'm jealous of guys that at a later stage in life, just start picking up things, just start out, just out doing things, learning instruments, painting, wrestling and a Mexican rope going to the top turnbuckle. Ah, Sinclair. These are news anchors on Sinclair stations around the various, yeah, various cities. All right. False news has become all too common on social media. More alarming, some media outlets publish these same fake stories without checking facts first. The sharing of biased and false news has become all too common on social media. More so I'm pretty sure the Russians are coming attractions like unfortunately, there's no their version. Control and control is always a start of us thought. It's not like 50 stations, right? That it's terrifying. You know my book about fake news? No, my Carmageddon thing where navigating thing, where that the nav takes over takes over. What about the evil satellite Russian satellite that takes over teleprompters? And just starts feeding the Russians a cautionary tale, right? Yeah, just starts working in, you know, those guys will dish read whatever shows up in the Chinese situation. Next thing you know. You know you've seen the computer. If you go, do, Rosanna, you've probably done this three times. You go do like KTLA or something more robotic. Oh, all right. Even better. So you've done what you did before that you did. You'll see like robotic cameras like rolling around on their own, not manned or anything. You hack that camera, you start putting in the teleport, you give them any subversive messages. Yeah. Why is it Google Translate? So it's not a perfectly grammatical English that shouldn't be. No, that cuts that. Yeah, but either way, I just thought of my next terrifying apocalyptic movie. All right. Ooh, Chris, come up with the title for it. Hell, a prompter. That's very good. Teleprompter. But there's one old school guy who still goes off cue cards. Is very Murray is a truck driver in Murray, the Kuka, and they're asked What is them making fun of them, right? You know, they show because they do know, man. They do that move. There's nothing worse than when you're looking at the cue cards and you're like, I want to change that and they pull out white tape and they just put it over the whole thing and they start riding over. The tape seems so antiquated. Everything's like they're making fun of like, Hey, I can do mine for my phone, and he's he's there late working on in there. Like I had it out with the coats over their shoulders. Go to the bar. We're going to we're going to virtual golf. Yes. Have fun, Murray. Yeah, that's act one. Well, you know, they hacked our voting system, so why not get hacked his teleprompter? I mean, how we got to go back to paper voting, the teleprompter zoological signing chair question about the divide Bryan did so. Adam was out one day recently, a couple of weeks ago and Gina cohosted and Michael Beam came in. Oh great. One of my all time favorites, one of our producers, fathers. Yes, indeed. His son worked for us and I brought up a little known movie that he starred, co-starred in With You called The Divide, and the Divide is a movie that hasn't been seen by a ton of people. It's not even I wouldn't call that great of a movie, but I saw it, and I've thought about it in the years since so many times because the acting is so powerful. Could talk about a little bit because your character specifically goes through this, this unraveling this, this degrading. You know what I mean? Like you are. Dawson just signed Milo's in a million a year. Sorry, didn't you come out as we had? It was 2011, OK? And it was the Xavier Garvey and Jen Xavier Jen, who's a great French director. And we shot it up in Canada, and we were in a basement in nuclear bomb goes off. People go down and live with each other and how they survive. It's it's pretty creepy and great. Eternal Lord of the Rings for this apocalyptic, you know, where where can we find it? You think, Brian? It's you can have it's on sauna. You can get on Amazon or get it on your Netflix DVD blu. Is it on DVD? Some people want to download it or whatever. And you know how we love a good tagline on a poster around here. This one's excellent. It's the lucky ones died in the blast. Oh, really? That was good. That's good. It is streaming if you have a account on voodoo. Otherwise, you can rent it for just two bucks on Amazon. So it's perfect. I'm thinking the tag on teleprompters. Word up. I don't know why. It's not even that clever, but it makes you think, Yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah. All right. Rosanna Arquette, I know you got a limo waiting out there. We're going to get a limo, but we're going to take a quick break and get to the news sideswiped as the name of the show. Excellent show available on YouTube Premium. Come back with any any cast member. Any family member will try to convince David to stop wrestling. Yes. Yeah, I would. I would like to, but I hope you can. But he doesn't listen to anything I say, can we this convention, right? I'm the eldest on the eldest. So I I, you know, he does. He's not going to listen to me, but he can do it day coupons or something. Oh crap. He just fractured his ribs. Yeah, he fractured his rib and it got punched in the head was a lot of match, but I don't want him to feel like I don't support anything he does, but I don't want him to be hurt. And that was Rosanna Arquette talking about auditioning for Adam sitcom back in while this interview is from 2018. All right, that will do it for part one of today's cruel classics, but stick around Park too. Two Coming up next.
