Thank you, Juju. I love you. I want to thank you all so.

Much for being here.

We hope you have a great time.

Today and that you remember it.

I'm going to introduce the stars of the show right now. This guy survived yesterday and got to today. He's got one show remaining as executive producer. His last show, Love to Mike Ryan. She does PowerPoint presentations to find friends, cries from joy on football fields across America, and has an extra tooth. She's Lucy Rodine. He's the handsome nemesis of Billy Gill, a Cubanito meathead who is the object of lecherous desires. None of us knew Stu got. Still had ten day Tony. She can do the nation's finest f 1 minute in french college football coverage in too much irish and has 494 favorite teams. She also has feet. She's Jessica's Matana. He's a Nepo baby worth $50 million. The fruit of my cobwebbed loins. I love him like a son, baby. He's Chris Cody's the father of Princess Claire and a hockey fan whose show might appear after some games on an occasional Friday. He's King Roy Bellamy. He's a lighthouse of positivity with a questionable taste in at least a couple of his tattoos. Again, some love for Juju Gotti. He's afraid of everything except anarchy. He's Billy Gill. He's a despicable scoundrel stuffed with unending lies.

But we all love him anyway. He's Stu Gotts. Oh, I almost forgot. Somebody. Hang on. Who's that other guy again? Who am I introducing? Oh, yeah. Dan Levitard, everybody. Dan Levitard.

And you know it.

Thank you, dad. Thank you, dad. Thank you. Thank you, dad. Thank you, dad. Thanks, dad.

We're playing Vegas during the Super bowl.

Are you kidding? Let's go.

We had three legendary music acts yesterday. Wayne Newton, Wu Tang, Flavor Flav, and the only one performing music they were here to listen to him perform is new Vegas act, Greg Cody.

Greg coat.

Greg coat, as Flavor Flav called him.

That's a fine.

And the heehaw three. Yeah, only two because Greg didn't understand what he was doing when he named the band.

We do know it. Thank you.

Thank you for who you are that we know, anywhere we go, you're going to land with us. I think I can speak for the group when we meet you afterward. And we're going to do this today. We're going to talk to you. You move us deeply when you tell us if you jump, we will catch you wherever you guys go because you listen to us from there and you love us. And so now we do this uncomfortable dance for you.

I kind of want to jump. I wish the stage was closer so I could jump. Like you guys should try, right? You always surprise people. Maybe some pillows down here. I'll do it late. We'll build up. Jump.

Billy already stood on the chair that.

Was dropping this character of crowd work.

Chris, maybe. Can we move this? Tyner, let's move the stage a little closer. If we could, mid show. Thank you. Yeah, Tyler, do that.

Forgive me for this, because I think it's blasphemy. Demar Hamlin did not win comeback player.

What? I mean, the fake punt kind of screwed it all up for him, right? Punt. Just hypothetically speaking, if that fake punt never happens, he probably wins it, right? You had a spotlight moment where everyone kind of remembered, oh, this guy has like a half tackle and now a failed fake punt. Were they going for a moment with that fake punt? Do they put him in that spot? Because they're like, this will be a thing. This is an SB. He kind of had a moment. I don't know. When he came up to life, they said the reason why it looks so bad is when they get a certain look from the other team, they run a fake punt. There needs to be one guy on the staff that's like, mar Hamlin should not be doing that.

Forgive me. I understand getting into the nuances of this. I just want you to know, right before the Super Bowl, a big event that is morally questionable. And we all capitalize on that. The comeback player of the year was not a player who came back from.

The

Chris, but do the right thing. Flacco. He came back.

Come on.

This goes without saying. No from the dead. I mean, he made the playoffs as a Cleveland Brown. That's in many ways more impressive. I got to be honest, Dan. Vegas has kicked my ass. Yeah. This city, man. We got out to a good lead.

I mean, I was up.

Yeah. We were like 15 going into last night. We gave them way too much time on the clock. Vegas went on a 240 run and I am destroyed this morning. You left Patrick Mahomes too much time. We're the Dolphins on Monday night and Vegas is the Titans. You're Shanahan in the Super bowl. Too soon. What happened there?

No.

The Shanahan family was here today. Wow. Shamley, we're cooking Friday. Chris, you want to get perfordy back off the ground?

Come on.

I want you to do it. Let's go. Who's purring with goosebumps? Goosebumps every time. Dan, I have an idea. Oh, lord. To present to you and these lovely fans in the great city of Las Vegas. Crowd work, Billy, it didn't work. They're still bothered by the Shanahan line. I'm sorry. Shanahan family. I was thinking, Las Vegas seems like the perfect place to have a Super bowl. This has been a great. It's been amazing. And they love having it here, and there's endless things to do. That was the whole idea. It should just always be in Las Vegas. It's a good idea. Wait, every year in Vegas? Every year in Vegas. What do you guys mean?

Justice for David Sampson.

What? Go peepee. Hashtag. Okay.

Did Kurti pay you?

He did. Yeah. Like, you got Andy.

He got more first place votes than everyone else, but Flacco beat him with.

The second and third place votes. This guy. I don't like that. Electoral college. Damn. This guy is so mad right now because he has 17 signs and you went to the one person and she only has one sign. He's been flipping through six signs already in this first segment to the Stugats books.com. Thank you, everyone. If you want your signs read on the air, don't lead with the taylor one. Yeah. This is this game day, ever.

Look, our guest list.

Strong.

Demographically old.

Don't do that to Dominique.

Dominique just showed up five minutes before the show, said, hey, you texted me yesterday. I'm here. You never said yes. I haven't run a show. I've never planned a show more. But we love Dominique. So doing that.

So he's coming up soon?

Next segment? Yep. I promise.

And when is Manescalco?

The segment after that.

Jessica, I shouldn't say this to him, but you didn't know who that was recently, right?

Let's keep that in the production meeting.

That had never heard of Sebastian manuscal.

I was just blown away by popular comedian. I don't even understand top five right now. He can sell out Madison Square Garden five times.

Yeah. Biggest box office right now. Like, top five box.

Well, he's done two movies with De Niro. Like, two of them. Because Bill Burr and some others are getting some of the comedy power that they're giving the Rogan guys.

We had David Spade on like ten years ago and you asked him, who's next? Who's the next guy that could potentially play arenas? And he's like, there's this little known guy that just opened up for me at the comedy store yesterday. His name is Sebastian and he only called him Sebastian. It was like Madonna or Cher at the time. Because Maniscalco is not. It's a tough one. Yeah, I can see. Let's chant it. Sebastian. The syllable situation. What was his last name? Sebastian Maniscalco.

Yeah. The syllables don't work.

I'm going to flip this table over.

No, but please help me with this part because I want them to feel the energy when they come up here of what it's like to know.

Yeah. Sebastian has no idea what it's like to perform in front of people.

No, but I want the people to give him the love before he ever comes out here. Like invigorate him. He's a very likable comedian. And him and carrot top, I think you'll get their best effort if he feels your energy.

I'm familiar with how that works. I will do my part. Do you want me to cheer for him? Tell us exactly what you want us to do for these guys. Meniscalco. I can line up on the meniscalco. Sebastian meniscalco. All right. That knows how to pronounce his last name can be on that. Yeah, go over there. Last name.

Can you go to the Greg Cody Hehaw three stage to get something that aggressively introduces our comedians?

I'm sorry, I'm distracted. Dan, there are a couple of guys over there and they are looking good. They knew exactly what we were talking about. I'm trying to look at the heehaw three, but I can't. Not you three. Steak sauce behind. Yeah. Yeah. I love the confidence in overhearing. There are three Jack looking dudes over there that look good. And they knew that we were talking about them because they saw our audience and said, who else could they possibly be talking about but us? It does look good, though. Oh, my God. Whatever you're doing. Is that oil? What are we using, Becca? You on the trend? You a trend, bro? I can tell that's trend. Are those the slap guys? Those guys are in town. Those guys got some hands. You guys seen these guys around? These slap dudes like Bruce, Bruce, go get slapped. It'd be od if they didn't have almost, I'd say, dare I say hands are essential to power. These people know what I meant you've seen these guys, ham hawks. We should track down Bruce, the former reaper, and get him in power slab to be a fucking titan. Billy, how much would I got?

The joke you were making about thick handed Bruce, who worked for us for a while and was literally falling asleep while he worked.

My last day on the job. It was a good joke, Mike. It was way inside. Mike, last day on the job, Bruce.

He had thick, meaty, aggressive lumberjack hands. Yeah, too big for an old man.

We had him on mystery crate. If you guys want to go find that episode. For the love of God. Just saying. We're talking Bruce the boss. Billy, how much came back from the dead? How much would I have to pay you, Billy, to literally get one of those guys? Let one of those guys slap you like a professional slapper. You're the one getting slapped. No, I'm just saying, if I put like, well, what's the number? Yeah, I'm not getting slapped. I think, for no, but say the number.

Oh, Billy.

Everyone. I'll eat one for two mil. 2 million. I'll eat 140 million. Chris, you would eat one for less than 2 million?

That seems like a liability issue.

Yeah, it's not a waiver.

I thought, let's do a wacky thing where stugats gets punched for a million dollars and he dies. I thought that there was be a great final act. Like it would be perfect.

He still wouldn't win comeback podcaster of the year, though.

I thought there was a chant. I was going to get slapped in the face yesterday for free by Josh Allen. Oh, man. He met his nemesis yesterday. What happened there?

Please. What happened?

It was know, just trying to promote subway and their cookies and their Trudros and their pretzels, and Josh Allen was the guy doing it. So we said, let's talk to Josh, Dan. I was hoping I wouldn't have to pay the piper. I was hoping I could just kind of get through it without anybody knowing what was up. And then Juju made sure to kind of point that out to him, that maybe someone in the past said that he had a stupid face. And then he turned and he said, was that you? But in fairness, I went in there very peacefully, and he's the one that started with me. Billy, that's alive. He bullied me for my love of ketchup, of all things. Billy was worried about me doing, like, bringing him into the whole Josh Allen thing. And because Vegas has kicked my ass, I forgot to do it. Thankfully, Juju did. Billy had to face his nemesis, Josh Allen. Wait, you just forgot to add. That's, like, why we were going to talk to him. We were four or five questions in, and then Juju, thankfully, was there because he's a Bills fan. So we asked Josh Allen the question.

Josh immediately realized it was Billy. They stared at each other face to face. I thought Billy was going to get his ass kicked, but Billy survived it, and we're thankful that he did. But it was funny, man. Josh Allen's a good sport. He is. Had I got punched in his face, though, I could have, like, it would have been amazing, the idea of him punching me in the face very publicly in front of so many witnesses. The settlement. Did you ask Josh Allen for an autograph, stu gods, I did, yes. He autographed my hat.

Who is on your hat right now? You have a little Dickie autograph. Josh Allen.

Josh Allen, little Dicky. We had him on radio.

Rope romo dunze is on.

There he is. Michael Pettix is on there. Sebastian, whose name I'm not going to try to pronounce, is going to be on there pretty soon. Got some good names here. I just had Dominique to it, too. Why Dominique? Do it. Steak sauce. And those three dudes on trend you got to yesterday, when we went out, Mike had a DJ set yesterday, by the way.

Mike keeps underplaying this, and I'm like.

How cool is that?

So he does the gronk Super bowl, he does a DJ set, and then he comes to this city, and while he haw three is performing over there, he quietly hits a club that everybody would have been at if we'd told them he was doing the DJ sets. Because everybody loves the DJ sets.

A lot of people came out. I appreciate all the fans that were there. I recognize some of the faces. But as you know, I am a man of the people. I love getting out there, reaching out and touching folks and smiling for photos. I am as personable as they come. So a fan asked me, hey, would you like to dj with me tonight? I was like, yeah, of course. I'm a champion of the people. I'm the people's producer. So we did that, and I thank everybody for coming out. Even sugats came out. Yeah. So I had to play a really laborious Grateful Dead song.

I thought you were going to headline this. I thought this show was going to end by us opening us up the club live, like Friday night. Let's send people into the Vegas.

Well, it's not happening. Well, that's not happening.

But I think Greg Cody's going to.

Play lovely cruise limit. Our funny thing happened, Dan, during Mike's DJ set.

I got a clock there. We got to finish up the set.

I mean, stacked roster. This is the Dan Levitar show with estu gats for Dan. It's never clear am I prepared? It's never certain and now the end is near every breath could be my final curtain I know, I promise more, but it's hard to bring one every Tuesday. I'm Greg that's how it was back in my day oh, now what more, what more could than one of dumb rending machines, hotel robots and then a cookbook? I will appeal I like the way my dumb mattress feel yes, I am Greg and that's how it was back in my day jack worth, fox, worth, fox worth, fox, worth, fox, worth, fox, worth, fox, worth, fox worth.

Less football than mina kai.

And be offended by that. That's facts. Or facts. You want me to argue? This is like saying I'm better looking than you. You can't be upset about that. Oh, goddamn.

Coming for you, though. Valerie's cleaning me up.

Valerie?

Valerie's trying to get you to a five. You'll never get to 9810 territory, which is where I was born, bitch. You want this guy? This guy's trying to catch up. He's trying to catch up.

I know he's caught up.

What's that, macaque?

Something like that. I can give it to you. Green suit. You look like if Plankton from SpongeBob was a pimp. It's outstanding. So sexy. What? You had macaque on, huh? That is macaque. You could go to jail for that. But it's. He the coolest guy on this team. No. Oh, my bad. I didn't see Lucy. Hey, guys. Lucy last night was on one because Caitlin Clark was playing basketball. So we're all having a drink at the bar and Lucy shows up and tries to talk to us for a little bit, but eventually is arguing with the bartender because the Iowa game is not on in Las Vegas. Like people would care. And then she's on her phone yelling at anybody who come close to her because Caitlin Clark is out there getting cooked.

That's not funny. And that's her phone. You apologize to me right now or we're not friends anymore.

I'm sorry. Clayton Clark is a little overrated. What? She couldn't be more highly rated, so it's hard to not be. I mean, if you're ranking people, you go, Martin Luther King, Caitlin Clark, maybe she go Jesus over MLK in February. How dare you kick saving abuse? It's important. Why do you. You didn't start a civil rights chant. Is it because. Civil. No, thank you. Jessica. Take it easy. Civil Cannon. I heard you guys address the flacco. And it is February 2.

Highest ranked person to come back from the dead. Famously, it's Jesus. And then who's second?

The undertaker.

It's the undertaker, I think.

Nikki six. Motley crue. I would say that this is appropriate. When Jesus came back from the dead, they didn't really give him an award. They weren't too happy about my dog. If anything, they were doubting him. Yeah, they're pretty much. So. I feel like we're on course, and two, 3000 years from now, hamlinism will be a thing, and it'll be something that we all believe in. Who needs an award if you got a whole damn religion wrong with you all? And to be fair, lots of animals are capable of resurrecting themselves. Macaque. No. Macaques. They can't do it. I think the wood frog can. Immortal jellyfish also can regenerate its cells and kind of start its life.

You know a lot about.

Ooh, wooly caterpillars. Wooly caterpillars come back from the dead. I'm just hanging around this show until Ron McGill gets tired and I can be the animal guy. That's all I really care about. I pretend to care about sports so that occasionally, Dan will let me come on here and talk about wooly caterpillars.

You are more fascinated by the animal kingdom than anybody here. You are amazed by the animal kingdom.

Animal off. Yeah. He starts his podcast with an animal tidbit. Yeah, it's normally random facts, including animal facts. Yesterday, we did a live show, and we started it with this little known fact about the green. What is it? The Greenland shark? Yeah. They don't reach sexual maturity until 150 years old. They live to be about 250 years. Also, if you were to eat their flesh, you would get drunk. It's true, Chuck, giggling ain't a joke. Stop laughing. You think I'm trying to make you laugh? Trying to make you smart. I don't want to tell you what to think.

Can you tell us about the live show? Because the idea that.

Missed it. But my dog. You want to know about the live show?

I wanted to know about you and Mina doing a live show together in we're. We, as a show are allowed to be proud of that, right?

Oh, yeah, sure. I mean, it is a child of the Dan Lebatar universe that is grown. It's like the Miles Garrett of the children of the Dan Lebatar universe, where it once was a kid, but now it's a whole nother species because me and Mina are that awesome. So I appreciate you guys letting us. Or appreciate you for giving us the opportunity. You can clap. No, don't clap. I mean, you guys think I was actually being genuine. You just ruined it. I was just setting it up for jokes to undercut Dan. That's all hawks. Now you got no stop. Worst. Come on. Stop it. Stop. Need the punchline. Let's go. They don't deserve it. Okay, the moment's over. Yeah, it's over. So another thing I found out last night about Lucy was that she prized on people's conversations on flights and I everywhere else.

I love to eavesdrop.

You don't feel ashamed? I think that's the only acceptable place on a plane. If I can see your phone through the crack and I got 4 hours to kill. The worst thing on the plane is where you're. It's the only place it's acceptable at a movie theater. Dick move. It's never acceptable. And isn't your life interesting enough? No, it's always real boring too. It's like just got on the plane, just landed. Give me the good stuff. It's not that boring if you're Lucy.

I had this woman on my flight here who was typing up like a complaint about her coworker, except it was a PowerPoint. So I was like, oh, man. She's given a presentation. Turns out she doesn't know how to open up awards, so she's changing the PowerPoint settings to look like a piece of paper. And she's writing about her coworker. I won't use their names, but she is not a nice gal and she is very disrespectful to my girl Kathy, who's been at that company for 39 years.

Oh, wow. Veteran.

And she was typing like this.

She was like, jess, why were you doing that?

I mean, that PowerPoint was for Bimmel and Bimmel alone.

Lucy is let loose in Vegas. I think she was smoking cigarettes aggressively.

You want one? No. Heater. A lot of us actually went out to Mina and Dominique's live show. Thank you, guys. Thank you for the insight. Because I hammered Trent Mcduffie tackles over. Because of the insight. I found out that bill Barnwell's middle name is Jerome. Yes, Jerome. That's actual. That was a real thing. I found out that because Kevin clark was there, that the Miami hurricanes still live rent free in everybody's heads. I was attacked for my passion for the hurricanes. But you guys are pretty good at this football thing. Yeah, we're good. I want to say that I appreciate all you guys for coming and being a part of the show. However, buy a ticket, you cheap bastards. Texting me.

Hold on a second.

Let me in. You think you give me in on the slide. Back door. Let me in the back door.

You said on your show last week that you were shaming people who were pretending like they wanted to buy a ticket when you knew you'd get them in for free.

Exactly. You don't get the game. I just like making people uncomfortable. If you would have asked me for, or you would have said, if you would have bought a ticket, I would have said, pepper, loser pays for a ticket.

Dominique. Also, you should be paying us because we were doing some crowd control work, because there was a first date or something happening at your show and they were talking the entire time.

I've never done this thing so many times.

I shushed them. I had to go, shush. And I felt so mad.

She shushed.

And they were like, did you hear that girl? Shush us. Oh, my God, that girl. And then I got really scared, so I kind of, like, crowded in. They were also holding each other's faces. At one point. I did not like them.

Some guy laughed at the wrong time. It was crazy.

I'm telling you, first date or something.

We're five minutes into the show and some guy just slow clap. It wasn't a slow clap. She said, we'll be right back. If we say we'll be right back, what are you guys going to do? Clap? I started to clap and I was the only one in the whole place to do it. Reading an ad. He started reading an ad. Mina's like, all right, we'll be right back. And now, blah, blah, blah. It's just one clap there, awkwardly making us all uncomfortable. And I. Who needs me? Same. In fairness, he had no idea you were going to a live spot. Thank you, guys. You guys are. Hey. Piss me. Did you say what? Said it.

Like you did with Wayne Newton.

Yeah, Wayne Newton fisted me. Wayne. Twice, twice, twice, twice, twice.

And then he came on the show and they fist bumped.

Fisted me and then came on the show. Oh, jeez.

That's a thing that happened.

Greg Cody can sing, guys, and I hate it. He legitimately can. He's got a great voice. He sounds fantastic.

Can you guys throw the show to him? Can you make a request of some sort? Can you ask him?

As long as Jeremy doesn't talk, I'm good with it. Because we haven't tested his mic. We don't want Jeremy to talk.

Can you throw our show over there so that they perform something for us that they've already performed, or just one of their hit songs? One of their hehaw three classics.

We're calling an audible guys, get ready. I would love for them to do some sort of hit song that they've already prepared. I'd also like to make Greg Cody learn some jodeci lyrics. That would make me so happy. Some hit conditions. Oh, I would love to hear Greg Cody hit some shy. Do you sing some Wu tang yesterday, though? Oh, yeah. Can you do that? Can you do that? Baby, I like it, man. Go. Singing's hard, guys. Oh, baby, I like it. Oh, baby, I like it. You. Is that the sound that you made OdB forever.

That is how we introduced Wu Tang.

James Brown over there.

They can play the wrong song, too.

Oh, can we?

And you know it and you know it, baby. And you know it and you know it. Yeti. Can we get a wrong song, baby?

No, don't do that to him.

Hold on. Let me get my loins ready. Yeah, get those loins.

I mean, you got to get the accent, baby.

You were wrong. None of loins, Dan. More loins, baby, you're wrong. You are sexy. I love it. Loins in that one. I'm a Baltimore guy.

Foxworth gave it a sexy.

That was sexy. That is the highest compliment from Dominic Foxworth. Thank you. You're welcome. Because there's something sexy about. He didn't care how good he sounded towards the end. He was just like, I see her. I see her. I can't sing, man. I could do everything else. Leave me alone, guys.

Oh, he lost his confidence at the end.

We never.

We got his ass.

Let's all land.

We got him. Time's off.

Sebastian meniscalco. Next, the Dan Lebatard show with Stu guts is presented by one eight hundredflowers.com draftkings. Official flowers for Valentine's. Don Lebatard, did you ever have a.

Crush on a cartoon character?

Oh, can I go? This isn't my question, but I did. Jessica Rabbit, who framed Roger Rabbit? Yes. I think she was married to Roger Rabbit, even though he was a bunny and she was a humanoid. But they were both cartoons. Stugats. I had a crush on Betty rubble. Oh, wow. What? That's very good. That's very good. With a surprise nomination from Stugats showing you his dirty, dirty inner nine year old. This is the Dan Levitar show with the stugats. One bright light city gonna set my soul gonna set my soul on fire Sin city banging like my hall of fame foes so get those stakes up higher. Viva Greg Cody.

Oh, there's a blackjack table and a roulette wheel a fortune to win with every spin I'm gonna conquer this city like a PFPI. So let the winning begin. Viva great coding. Viva great coding. Viva.

Viva.

This is exciting. Let's go. I told you to bring some energy for him. You have to understand, we got somebody who is killing the comedy game. Killing it. Sold out Madison Square Garden five times. Think about that.

That's crazy.

Breaking his own record. He's got a tv show on Max bookie. He acts with De Niro, and he currently has a residency at the encore theater at the wind. That I hope I can get into the next couple of nights with my wife, because I think your greatest strength. And thank you for joining us. Sebastian Maniscalco.

This dugatch is so very strong in you, dad. I am so proud of you. Looking for tickets? Before the question.

I admire you because of how likable you are. It is a rare trait. We need more of it these days. I appreciate it.

And I got to tell you guys something. Listen, I just came from radio row or whatever you want.

That's heaven.

Two people. There's nobody really paying attention. You come here, you got a live audience, you got some band over here that's fantastic. And you got 29 people on stage. You're not going to get this anywhere else in Las Vegas. So I'm happy to be here. And we're coat. You don't see this at any other show.

Thank you, Sebastian.

Fur look great. And he's got some Giorgio protini slip ons, which I got to appreciate.

Well, he's aspiring to your style. I believe he's aspiring to be stronger fashion sense than you. You can pull it off casual. Damn.

Look at this velvet, though. Come on, look at this velvet.

This is dolphin.

No wonder it wasn't wet. That's why.

No, I appreciate you noticing the jacket and everything, but nice to be here. Nice to be.

Give it up for the three people.

That are in the pool that they had to bring the lifeguards in for. Right, lifeguards. It's going to be an easy day. And then one idiot gets in to swim. They're like, yeah, we got to work. So thanks to the lifeguards for coming in today in 50 degree, and thanks for making your sign. Back in my day, people took pride in writing a book by the pride of the lion.

This guy's advertised. We're going to clip that for Greg Cody.

My God, you just did a promotion for Greg Cody of Heehaw three.

He's taking a photo over there.

Taking pictures for his new book. All the money goes to animal charities. As you wear a dolphin jacket.

All right, who knew? I don't know if this was a plant or what this was, but God bless you for making your sign gay.

He doesn't understand why you would dare to test Vegas with a residency or with the excess of the city. In four days. It has kicked his ass. He has lost to Vegas.

Vegas has kicked my ass. In fact, leaving Vegas is more fun than getting to Vegas. Who the wants to stay here for that long?

I mean, honestly, he's killing Vegas and I think he's entitled. And Vegas, relax.

Okay? Second straight day, you get heaped from the Vegas audience.

Are you saying that you feed all my vices?

Vegas.

I'm sorry, you have a gambler's voice.

Yes.

Right?

Yes.

Sounds like he's been at the table for 9 hours, smoking, singing again. So are you actually trying to win money out of here? The only way you walk out of a casino with money is you have to actually work here. That's the only way you walk out of here. So, no, I'm not hitting the tables at all. I do my Vegas very mild. I come in steakhouses. I don't even do that. I do my two shows, I go up and I watch a documentary. I mean, I'm 50 with a six.

Year old and a four year old.

So I have no energy to go out clubbing.

All right, but you do have it for creatively making movies with De Niro. Which is. Which one's better if I ask you, with your heritage and everything else, selling out Madison Square garden five straight times, or you can say you had two parts with De Niro.

Yeah, I mean, growing up watching Robert De Niro, I had posters on my wall with this guy, and next thing you know, he's playing my father in a movie, which De Niro wanted to have my father on set coaching him how to be him. So I'm sitting there watching, and my father's a hairdresser, and De Niro is asking my father how to do a dye job in one of the scenes. And I'm just sitting there going, this is amazing. I never thought I'd see my 78 year old father teaching 80 year old De Niro how to do a blowout. Yeah, working with Robert De Niro was. But listen, it wasn't one of these movies. Where they yell, cut. And me and De Niro are talking about where we're going to go at.

Night, your separate places.

He went to his chair to open up a no boo, and I went to my chair.

But you had to be nervous, scared, performing in front of him. Right.

I was sweating constantly. I mean, this is arguably one of the greatest actors of our time. I generally don't do a lot of acting. And now, from soup to nuts, I'm working with De Niro for nine weeks in Alabama. So what are we pointing out? What's going on over here?

We did a whole show yesterday. He never spoke. He just jumped in the pool. I think all of us have this stunned. Roy wishes to speak.

Roy. That's why it stopped. Everything in our track.

Roy is stopping.

Speak. You never speak well with the Irishman. It wasn't just De Niro. It was De Niro and Pacino on the same scene. What was that?

So, yeah, that was a whole other De Niro, pesci, scorsese, and one. This is before about my father. So in that was. This is what happened. They yell, cut. Scorsese, pesci, and de Niro come out. They get in a circle. They start talking. And I'm not thinking. I'm thinking I'm getting fired. This is after the first scene. I'm like, that's it. I got to pack my bag and go home. Should I get in the circle? Should I stay over here? So I guess they have a shorthand with one another, and they talk about the scene, and then we fired it back up again. But, yeah, to be in two movies like that, because I really don't do a lot of movies was, I want to say a dream come true because I had never even dreamt it well.

But hold on a second. On dream come true because I asked you specifically. Pick one. You can only pick one. Madison Square Garden five times. Or that. Because I can't imagine you didn't weep anywhere with gratitude anywhere inside of that because you were selling out at the height of your dreams. This place, five times.

I got to tell you, I'm constantly weeping, constantly crying. I'd have to say Madison Square.

Same. No, too, bro.

I'm all up for a good cry. My wife don't cry at all. We'll be watching a movie, and I'm drowning in my own tears. I look over at her and I'm like, nothing. So, yeah, I go stand up Madison Square Garden, because that's what I do. I mean, I'm a comedian, and to do Madison Square Garden five times in a row. Coming up here in September is going to be pretty monumental for me.

And can you explain to us what that's like for you, just emotionally as the performer in you, given whatever it is that you actually dream this would look like one day. Because I don't think anybody understands how hard a grind with not a lot of health insurance, like you're there. It's your art, it's you. And you've got to survive. Make a living for your kids on your funny with the expectation of funny.

That's hard and brave.

You know what? You sound like my mother. The health insurance, because that was her biggest concern. As soon as I got into this business in 1998, what are you going.

To do for health insurance?

Because you're on your own out there. But I didn't enjoy Madison Square Garden the first time I did the four shows. And I really kicked myself for that because I was always thinking about, okay, what's next? What's next? And if you learn anything today, enjoy the moment you are in right now. Don't be looking 6 hours from now when you're losing your life savings at the blackjack table. So this time around, I'm going to be more in the moment enjoying it because sometimes I think ahead of myself and I lose what's actually happening right now.

Okay, so a lot of times people come over here and your job is to just do the promotion of whatever it is you're selling. But why do you believe in bookie on? That's. That's an interesting project for you to take. It could just be your sports roots or that there's a lot of funny there, but I'm imagining you're spending a lot of time creatively there.

Yeah.

So I went up to Chuck Laurie and I pitched him a show loosely based around my life. He came back and said, I got an idea about you being a bookie in Los Angeles with the pending doom of legalized gambling on the horizon. And I was like, you know what? I like that idea better because I'm kind of tired of playing myself. I did it in the movie about my father. I shot a pilot with Tony Danza as my father six years ago. Never got picked up playing me. I'm like, I like this idea playing another guy. I don't really have a lot of sports roots. I mean, I grew up a Chicago Bears fan, but it's not like I'm the guy that you're going to ask, who should the Bears take in the draft? I don't even know who's on the list?

Damn. I was going to ask you that, man.

Well, I got this quarterback out of USC. The problem with the Bears. Right, Williams? I know that much. I know junior Harrison Jr. And that's about after that I fall off a cliff. But whoever the, you know, they're doomed.

That's true.

Justin Fields will leave the Bears and they'll go win a Super bowl.

That's right.

I just see those, you know, sports. You know sports.

I know a little bit. Just a little bit. But I'm just tired of watching the Bears game because I'm watching all these other teams, even Mahomes, and I've never seen this move before. Mahomes goes up first, they go in the shotgun. And then they got to come up to the line and see what's going on. But the running back comes up too. He feels left out.

It's performative. You got it right.

Okay.

And then they go back together. Bears ain't doing that.

Good analysis.

Mahomes figured it out from Brady. Go over there and sprinkle your dust over there. I know we know more, but he's not doing it. You think he's not doing anything?

He must be doing something because a lot's happening after that. But I'm just saying when the bears get up to the line, no one's talking, no one's pointing. This guy's coming.

Watch.

They're just head down. Can't wait to go out to eat. Mean, I don't.

Meteoro, I don't know. You got to tell us how you experienced this yesterday because it is really a carnival of carnivores coming over and just be funny, funny man. Be funny. You're experiencing sports, Vegas, gambling, all of it being together at the same time in your city. Is that an epicenter for your funny here in the residency that you're doing because you're in Vegas during an insane week? I can't believe that they're about to play amid the gambling, the prostitution that the conservative NFL is playing around Sin City.

This is my pitch. This is my pitch and I want to get the audience reaction on this. I say we do the Super bowl. We alternate Vegas and Sofi in LA every year. The hell with the rest of the league.

What a perfect place.

Go to the pool. Go to the pool. You are a distraction with your sign.

Another sign.

He dropped the ball.

This is a good interview. You can't come here and have ten jokes hoping to get one of them on.

He was cooking and you dropped the signs at the worst possible respect, some dignity for comedy interrupted.

No, it's not an interruption. We get this type of behavior a lot at the shows, okay? Anytime you bring a live audience in, you're bound to get some guy who spent, I don't know, an hour and a half making. Come on.

You brought that on those signs?

That's that thick marker, too, dude.

Come on.

Yeah, that's a heavy marker. Next time you do a sign, put a little color into it, take some time, maybe draw a figurine. We'll get to you, guy.

Take it easy. Take it easy. Jeez.

What do you make? And I ask this question of comedians a lot. It's such a fascinating time in comedy. Shane Gillis is now being used by Bud light at the end of the month as comedians try to find this free speech space. Your podcast is one of the hundred that are kicking ass because comedians have found this lane for business, where they can talk unfiltered to their audience without any limits. As you hustle against the Rogans and the Bert Kreischers and everyone in the competitive game, how are you staying ahead of everybody in the business? Because you're just likable and people want to hear what you have to say about things.

That's nice for you to say that what I've done, and this wasn't really by design. I've always been kind of, even in high school, I was never part of the popular group. I was always on the fringe. Right? Same thing with my career. I'm not really piped into all that's going on in comedy and comedians and hanging out and whatnot. So I've always taken the just concentrate on myself. I can't worry about anybody else. The only thing I have is me and my material. So I've just constantly wrote material. I have my podcast, and nowadays, with everybody being so sensitive and whatnot, I do have a bit of an editing mechanism even while I'm up here, right. I'm not one of these guys that's a loose cannon, and I'm going to say something that's going to go viral, and I'm going to be popular for that. I just concentrate on.

Just so you can avoid all of the danger spots by not get. That's the hardest way to do it in comedy, right? You're not getting currency or attention just from being provocative for the sake of provoking.

Yeah, I can't do that. I just can't do that. My comedy is more observational. It's not like shock. And I'm going to shock you with something or do something outrageous where people are going to go, my God, did you see? I just try and concentrate on whatever my father's doing at the time and bringing that to the stage.

Same.

The fathers are great for mean, especially.

Uh, I was in Chicago four or five nights ago, and he wanted to go and get a refrigerator, and I don't like shopping with my dad because we go into a major department store, and he's there for 8 hours going, where's the coils? On the refrigerator? Coils. He wanted to clean the coil. I go, dad, your basement looks like bin Laden lived there, and you're going to clean coils on the, you know, we get to the point where we got to look for the price, and he's, all right, let's go make a deal.

And I'm like, dad, this not a.

Flea market in Palermo. So it's like they got a set price. So whatever my dad's doing. And people go, oh, you don't talk about politics. Whatever my dad is doing at the current time is funnier than what Trump or the hell is the guy's name that we got in office.

Super bowl week?

Yeah, my dad's funnier than both of them.

We have to get out of here. Not enough time. Just on the way out, though. As someone who loves the craft of stand up comedy, when you look at, like, the mount rushmore of the people who do, like, the real sculpting and.

You really like Mount Rushmore, the people.

Who love you love the craft of it. If I made you pick four, could you possibly limit it to four?

Yeah. I say richard Pryor, eddie murphy, two of the guys I grew up on, george Carlin.

Put yourself on there. Put yourself on there.

Johnny Carson. I think johnny Carson, although wasn't a comedian in a sense that he was a host more than a comedian. But his comedy silence, which you don't see a lot anymore. You don't see a lot of silence, is golden in comedy. A lot of people that do comedy is very rushed, and they don't give you any breathing space. If you watch Carson, he definitely did that. So that's my top four. When you said mount rushmore, I got nervous because I had to go in my brain and go, is that four.

Or five or you had to name presidents, which didn't work out for you. Just like 5 seconds prior.

I couldn't even name the God again. Residency at the encore theater at the wind.

Thank you.

He's one of the best.

One of the best doing it. Appreciate it.
