WEBVTT

00:00:12.330 --> 00:00:20.890
Preparing. Got it. It's setting up and preparing

00:00:20.890 --> 00:00:26.210
still. All right. I hope... Yeah, I think it

00:00:26.210 --> 00:00:32.409
did work. If you go to check us on Instagram,

00:00:32.890 --> 00:00:35.530
it definitely cuts off half of our body. We got

00:00:35.530 --> 00:00:37.719
to figure out. How or I got to figure out how

00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:40.159
not to do that, but that's all of that. It's

00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:44.439
like weird. Yeah, it seems like we are live everywhere.

00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:50.179
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen to live. If you're

00:00:50.179 --> 00:00:52.799
wondering why we're not live on YouTube this

00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:56.179
week, it's because they are taking down our episodes

00:00:56.179 --> 00:01:00.259
for. medical misinformation or some other BS

00:01:00.259 --> 00:01:02.979
like that when we're not giving out any medical

00:01:02.979 --> 00:01:05.739
misinformation. So I just want to let the audience

00:01:05.739 --> 00:01:09.500
know that they're literally stifling free speech.

00:01:10.219 --> 00:01:14.180
And I'm in the process of trying to fix that

00:01:14.180 --> 00:01:16.019
with them, but it's a pain in the ass. And eventually

00:01:16.019 --> 00:01:19.019
I might just say F YouTube and we'll be going

00:01:19.019 --> 00:01:24.400
strictly on rumble or wherever. I mean, It's

00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:26.980
indicative of the state of affairs in this freaking

00:01:26.980 --> 00:01:31.159
country or this world for that matter. Yeah Government

00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:34.079
propaganda is forced down your throat. If you

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:37.000
say anything against it, you're you know You're

00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.840
taking out. Yeah, these and these big tech companies

00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:42.040
fucking just play along with it. It's unbelievable

00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:45.459
the fact that you can't have an open discussion

00:01:45.459 --> 00:01:49.500
and Talk about certain things. It's crazy. We

00:01:49.500 --> 00:01:52.439
do live Yeah. I mean, we do live in the United

00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:56.280
States of America. So, uh, freedom of speech

00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.359
is somewhere in our rights. That's a number one

00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:03.780
followed by number two. Yeah. I'm going to take

00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:06.640
a number two on YouTube because they're, uh,

00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:09.199
I just don't like it, dude. It feels, it feels

00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:13.840
like it feels wrong to me. And it is wrong. It's

00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:17.000
fucking inherently wrong. It's especially when

00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:19.780
you're not saying anything that's not true. Exactly.

00:02:20.359 --> 00:02:22.840
It's complete truth. The vaccine doesn't work.

00:02:23.379 --> 00:02:26.939
It didn't work. If, you know, as time went on,

00:02:27.060 --> 00:02:30.379
the effectiveness was 100 % and it was 85%. You

00:02:30.379 --> 00:02:31.840
know, it just went down and down and down. It's

00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:33.979
like, well, no shit. Didn't work at all. Exactly.

00:02:34.699 --> 00:02:36.180
Exactly. You're not allowed to say that on YouTube.

00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:39.620
I mean, come on. It's just nuts. When you can't

00:02:39.620 --> 00:02:42.439
say true things somewhere, there's inherently

00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:44.879
a problem in my eyes. Yeah, well, you should

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:46.699
be able to say whatever you want, unless you're

00:02:46.699 --> 00:02:49.580
inciting violence or riots, but right, you know,

00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:52.060
right. You can't say fire in a movie theater.

00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.000
Great. Great. Right. Right. Right. Fire in a

00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.500
movie theater. Just said it. Can't say fire while

00:02:59.500 --> 00:03:03.659
in a movie. Ah, there you go. I want to let people

00:03:03.659 --> 00:03:06.719
know I'm excited, man. I was asked to be a godfather

00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:09.300
to my lovely nephew who's about nine months old.

00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:13.990
Nice. Yeah, I'm excited. an actual godfather.

00:03:14.389 --> 00:03:20.189
So you need to give me some respect. We have

00:03:20.189 --> 00:03:23.030
a fun show, guys. We have Mr. Larry Hanken coming

00:03:23.030 --> 00:03:25.849
on. And I figured what better time than December

00:03:25.849 --> 00:03:28.370
for this lovely man, because I mean, he's been

00:03:28.370 --> 00:03:32.909
in everything, but Home Alone is one of my favorite

00:03:32.909 --> 00:03:35.669
movies. I watch it at least once every Christmas.

00:03:36.689 --> 00:03:40.610
Yeah, if not multiple times. And I just got mad

00:03:40.610 --> 00:03:44.120
questions for him. I mean he's he's friggin prolific.

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:46.139
I mean he's been in the business since I think

00:03:46.139 --> 00:03:49.780
what 65 or something like that Yeah, second city

00:03:49.780 --> 00:03:53.340
the the comedy group. I mean he's escaped from

00:03:53.340 --> 00:03:55.659
Alcatraz with Clint Eastwood back and I mean

00:03:55.659 --> 00:04:00.139
so many movies and TV shows Breaking Bad El Camino

00:04:00.139 --> 00:04:03.180
the Breaking Bad movie. I mean so cool. Yeah

00:04:03.180 --> 00:04:07.069
totally cool And he's got he was doing comedy

00:04:07.069 --> 00:04:09.729
when Lenny Bruce was doing comedy and like changing

00:04:09.729 --> 00:04:13.870
the game up and talking personal and Larry like

00:04:13.870 --> 00:04:15.729
I think stopped doing it because he was like

00:04:15.729 --> 00:04:18.610
getting arrested for cursing on stage. So I want

00:04:18.610 --> 00:04:20.250
to talk to him about that. I mean, we're talking

00:04:20.250 --> 00:04:22.750
about our free speech being violated. That's

00:04:22.750 --> 00:04:25.350
really violating. But yeah, they were using the

00:04:25.350 --> 00:04:27.790
police and now you just get canceled. Right.

00:04:28.009 --> 00:04:30.089
Right. Now they take away your income before

00:04:30.089 --> 00:04:35.430
they put you in jail. Yeah. Yeah, lovely. But

00:04:35.430 --> 00:04:37.410
there's a bunch of stuff going on in the world.

00:04:38.990 --> 00:04:42.310
I think the the cool the craziest thing going

00:04:42.310 --> 00:04:44.689
on in the world is that feminists now are allowing

00:04:44.689 --> 00:04:47.610
people to be raped by Hamas because they're oppressed.

00:04:48.230 --> 00:04:50.470
I mean, can you fucking believe? Do you believe

00:04:50.470 --> 00:04:52.730
what feminism is now in our day in this day and

00:04:52.730 --> 00:04:55.990
age? It's like men and biological men and women's

00:04:55.990 --> 00:04:59.430
sports. That's cool. Yeah. It's cool if you are

00:04:59.430 --> 00:05:03.319
oppressed persons to rape women. Okay, sounds

00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:06.319
great. Hashtag me too motherfucker. Like what

00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:09.779
the hell is it's like upside down world. It's

00:05:09.779 --> 00:05:13.680
crazy. I haven't met one woman and although they're

00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:15.800
out there on the news and social media, I haven't

00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:19.199
met one woman personally who is okay with biologically

00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:22.439
born males to be competing in sports with biologically,

00:05:22.740 --> 00:05:26.939
you know, made women. I met one that's okay with

00:05:26.939 --> 00:05:29.800
that. It doesn't make any fucking sense. Yeah.

00:05:30.100 --> 00:05:33.959
At all. At all you have feminists that are fucking

00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:37.579
for it. Yeah, it's great like what like even

00:05:37.579 --> 00:05:40.100
though what's a Rapunzel a freaking the soccer

00:05:40.100 --> 00:05:42.300
player chick. She's like, oh, yeah It's a fight.

00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:44.639
She's conveniently retiring, but she's cool with

00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.779
men playing in the sport now. Yeah. Okay. Yeah,

00:05:47.779 --> 00:05:51.839
okay I mean a 15 year old boys team beat like

00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:54.620
the pro I think was was the pro girl pro pro

00:05:54.620 --> 00:05:57.480
women's team I mean, I could see it. I mean,

00:05:57.540 --> 00:06:00.379
because if you look at the WNBA versus the NBA,

00:06:00.779 --> 00:06:03.699
I mean, there's a clear and like, it's a very

00:06:03.699 --> 00:06:07.160
defined difference on how they perform and all

00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:09.220
that stuff. Wasn't a Chappelle made a joke about

00:06:09.220 --> 00:06:12.399
LeBron going and playing in WNBA? It scores like

00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:17.399
8 ,000 points. Right, right. Now, if like the

00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:19.699
thing is like, biological women are saying, well,

00:06:19.779 --> 00:06:22.699
you can't say that. Physically all the men are

00:06:22.699 --> 00:06:24.980
better. Okay. Maybe I can't but I could say that

00:06:24.980 --> 00:06:28.399
95 % of them are like if this was a thing and

00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:30.920
it was a battle of brain power Then by all means

00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.319
biological males biological women compete all

00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.660
you want because women are probably Way smarter

00:06:35.660 --> 00:06:38.319
than men to begin with but from a skill level

00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:41.560
I think some of them could be you know at Probably

00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:44.360
at a level playing field, right is it cat physically

00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:47.220
though? I mean women just aren't men physically.

00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:50.009
Sorry, right happening Yeah, you don't have the

00:06:50.009 --> 00:06:51.670
strength. They don't have the build. They don't

00:06:51.670 --> 00:06:54.670
have the speed. It's just different. Right. Sorry.

00:06:55.370 --> 00:06:57.449
Like if you look at the fastest woman in the

00:06:57.449 --> 00:06:59.790
world compared to the fastest male, I would think

00:06:59.790 --> 00:07:02.550
there's like seconds between and like a bunch

00:07:02.550 --> 00:07:05.709
of them. It's not just like, you know, any reason

00:07:05.709 --> 00:07:09.810
we have women sports. Right. Right. Yo, Chad,

00:07:09.910 --> 00:07:13.629
did you see the beam? You remember that old school

00:07:13.629 --> 00:07:17.230
picture from like the 20s or 30s or 40s or 50s

00:07:17.230 --> 00:07:19.889
where the guys are just on a beam like making

00:07:19.889 --> 00:07:22.269
maybe even the Empire State Building, not sure,

00:07:22.430 --> 00:07:24.470
but they're eating their lunch just on a beam

00:07:24.470 --> 00:07:26.689
like a fire as the Empire State Building being

00:07:26.689 --> 00:07:29.649
constructed in New York. Yes. Yeah. So Rockefeller

00:07:29.649 --> 00:07:33.170
Center now just you go up to the top of the rock

00:07:33.170 --> 00:07:36.069
and you sit on this beam and it goes up on a

00:07:36.069 --> 00:07:39.470
platform and then spins around so you can recreate

00:07:39.470 --> 00:07:43.040
that scene. But you're overlooking New York like

00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:45.680
crazy. You're not strapped in. You're just sitting

00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.500
on the beam. But if you fall, you fall like five

00:07:48.500 --> 00:07:51.279
feet onto the roof. But it's still creepy. You

00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:53.540
got to check it out. But you can fall. Yeah.

00:07:53.699 --> 00:07:55.800
I mean, you're not strapped in from last week.

00:07:55.980 --> 00:07:59.500
That's not going to last long. So some fucking

00:07:59.500 --> 00:08:02.860
jackass gets on their balls off. But that's crazy,

00:08:02.980 --> 00:08:07.259
though. It's crazy, man. Wow. I have a huge liability

00:08:07.259 --> 00:08:11.220
for that. Yes. Ah, so here, Bobby's pulled it

00:08:11.220 --> 00:08:15.279
up, actually. Bob, is this the... Is there a

00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:17.660
video of it? If you go to Google or whatever

00:08:17.660 --> 00:08:21.560
you use and just type in the beam at Rockefeller

00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:24.680
Center, it's crazy, dude. I'm watching it happen.

00:08:25.459 --> 00:08:31.100
Yeah, the beam, Rockefeller. Just try that, feller,

00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:34.840
E -R. You're thinking of Rockefellas, and he's...

00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:39.440
There we go. And then yes look at this dude.

00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:43.340
It's that's cool. It is really cool So you got

00:08:43.340 --> 00:08:45.940
a photo you got to have balls to do it though.

00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:53.240
Yeah. Yeah, man Loading loading loading we always

00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:56.899
have to I got to figure out something to to fix

00:08:56.899 --> 00:09:00.000
this because Constantly I'm gonna wait for Bob.

00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.320
I'm gonna Take that down and wait for Bobby to

00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:06.769
get it up on his own We do see you waiting there.

00:09:06.830 --> 00:09:09.649
I'm gonna bring in a couple minutes and I just

00:09:09.649 --> 00:09:11.250
wanted to ask Chad about this. Did you see that

00:09:11.250 --> 00:09:16.929
Russia basically 30 ,000 prisoners it led out

00:09:16.929 --> 00:09:19.610
to fight in a war and gave them like six months

00:09:19.610 --> 00:09:21.549
worth of fighting and then if they made it they're

00:09:21.549 --> 00:09:25.730
just free and Yeah, so some most of them died

00:09:25.730 --> 00:09:30.250
a lot died, but some are Made their six months

00:09:30.250 --> 00:09:32.049
and they're getting out now and going right back

00:09:32.049 --> 00:09:36.110
to raping killing burning All that stuff. Yeah.

00:09:36.169 --> 00:09:37.870
So Chad, if you look at the photo to the right

00:09:37.870 --> 00:09:43.149
on the roof of of the top of the rock and it

00:09:43.149 --> 00:09:47.370
literally like I guess Like air pressure something

00:09:47.370 --> 00:09:49.529
pushes the beam up and then it spins around so

00:09:49.529 --> 00:09:53.029
you can overlook the whole city. It's crazy cool.

00:09:53.549 --> 00:09:59.049
Wow So we might have to do a podcast from there

00:09:59.049 --> 00:10:03.149
coming up soon The Fred that'd be great a little

00:10:03.149 --> 00:10:05.779

bean what to wear wireless mics and all that

00:10:10.899 --> 00:10:14.820
jazz hey hey and then they'd be like this is

00:10:14.820 --> 00:10:18.399

00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:21.100
so this is straight oh yeah oh yeah and if you

00:10:21.100 --> 00:10:25.740

00:10:34.100 --> 00:10:37.100
supposedly it was made by Leonardo da Vinci in

00:10:37.100 --> 00:10:40.639
1503. And I think the other one was completed

00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:45.019
like 15, 16, 15, 16, 15, 17, somewhere around

00:10:45.019 --> 00:10:48.639
there. But they're saying like, I don't know,

00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:51.299
because the face, they're saying this is Mona

00:10:51.299 --> 00:10:54.000
Lisa, whatever, who was younger at the time.

00:10:54.419 --> 00:10:56.240
But they're saying like the way it's painted,

00:10:56.340 --> 00:11:00.120
it doesn't have like Leo's face structure. And

00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:02.250
so because he was real. anatomy, you know. Yes,

00:11:02.330 --> 00:11:05.330
right. Interesting. But it's cool. Yeah, look

00:11:05.330 --> 00:11:08.389
it up. I mean, the background is very rudimentary.

00:11:08.750 --> 00:11:12.690
She looks, you know, not as not as cool, but

00:11:12.690 --> 00:11:15.929
hey, if it is, where do they find this? I don't

00:11:15.929 --> 00:11:19.769
know. It's been sold at auction before. Oh, God.

00:11:20.129 --> 00:11:22.190
Yeah. And I think they carbon dated. I'm not

00:11:22.190 --> 00:11:25.350
100 percent sure, but it could have been carbon

00:11:25.350 --> 00:11:27.330
dated to around the time. But then, you know,

00:11:27.350 --> 00:11:29.620
somebody knew. Leonardo da Vinci did that they

00:11:29.620 --> 00:11:32.659
did their own version so it's around the time

00:11:32.659 --> 00:11:35.139
like it was it was a famous commissioned painting

00:11:35.139 --> 00:11:38.059
from what I'm hearing and and the when Leonardo

00:11:38.059 --> 00:11:40.360
da Vinci was doing it he was kind of doing self

00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:43.539
promotion back in the day and it was for some

00:11:43.539 --> 00:11:47.100
Kings it was like some Kings mistress who Lisa

00:11:47.100 --> 00:11:50.080
was and it was like he or at least is what Leonardo

00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:52.279
said like this is a self portrait of the Kings

00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:54.659
mistress which was controversial at the time

00:11:54.659 --> 00:11:56.799
because the King shouldn't have had a mistress

00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:59.909
so to speak Um, so I don't know. There's some

00:11:59.909 --> 00:12:01.570
there's some coolness to it. I'm gonna look more

00:12:01.570 --> 00:12:04.470
into it, but just check doesn't it crazy what

00:12:04.470 --> 00:12:08.250
art has it become? I mean that used to be art,

00:12:08.409 --> 00:12:11.309
you know, like the Mona Lisa and classic paintings

00:12:11.309 --> 00:12:14.389
and now art's like someone puts a fucking square

00:12:14.389 --> 00:12:17.169
on the wall takes a picture. Oh my god. Yeah

00:12:17.169 --> 00:12:20.629
in the fucking museum like what is going on here?

00:12:20.850 --> 00:12:22.990
Yeah, there's some art where I'm like, dude,

00:12:23.070 --> 00:12:25.830
I think I could do that and I'm not artistic

00:12:25.830 --> 00:12:29.750
at all. You know what I'm saying? But apparently

00:12:29.750 --> 00:12:32.529
they're old but the strokes and the lines enough

00:12:32.529 --> 00:12:34.629
get the hell out of Hunter Biden is a fucking

00:12:34.629 --> 00:12:38.070
artist, too. He's awesome. I mean, I saw some

00:12:38.070 --> 00:12:41.129
of this stuff. It's not half bad. I mean, just

00:12:41.129 --> 00:12:43.269
that's from a coked out Hunter Biden, you know,

00:12:43.269 --> 00:12:47.389
I'm gonna I'm gonna let Larry in. All right.

00:12:47.750 --> 00:12:52.529
All righty then. So yeah, pretty exciting time.

00:12:52.669 --> 00:12:55.070

00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:13.580
believing in Santa. I got to keep that line going

00:13:13.580 --> 00:13:15.940
for as long as I can. Hell, yeah, dude. I mean,

00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:18.220

00:13:18.220 --> 00:13:19.580
what makes it fun. You know what I'm saying?

00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:22.139
You got to kind of stick with that. They do help

00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.139
We were just speaking about artists, Larry, and

00:14:22.139 --> 00:14:25.620
you actually do some really cool art. I see some

00:14:25.620 --> 00:14:27.340
in the background, but you know, yeah, yeah,

00:14:27.379 --> 00:14:31.220
there and there. Oh, yeah. I mean, he does some

00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:33.360
cool stuff, man. If you if you get close to it

00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.960
or and if you go to what is it? Your website

00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:43.679
is Larry Hanken. It's the art is a Larry Hanken.

00:14:44.580 --> 00:14:48.139
No, the real Larry Hanken dot com. Yes. If you

00:14:48.139 --> 00:14:50.860
go to TheRealLarryHankin .com, yeah, that's all

00:14:50.860 --> 00:14:53.860
the art is on there. It's about 40 of them, I

00:14:53.860 --> 00:14:57.860
guess. I don't know. Just aim this thing better.

00:14:58.659 --> 00:15:03.019
Perfect. Weird. Well, we're weird, so it works.

00:15:03.940 --> 00:15:07.059
I guess. Larry, I got a question for you. Yeah.

00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:11.659
So it's kind of twofold. When you were filming

00:15:11.659 --> 00:15:15.269
Home Alone, did you? Yeah. Any inkling that this

00:15:15.269 --> 00:15:24.029
was going to be as huge as it became? No, I write

00:15:24.029 --> 00:15:27.250
about it in the book. You know, that guy, I don't

00:15:27.250 --> 00:15:29.169
know if you know, I have a book out called that

00:15:29.169 --> 00:15:32.629
guy. And it's about all that stuff and home alone.

00:15:34.529 --> 00:15:37.090
No, I didn't even want to do it. I mean, I turned

00:15:37.090 --> 00:15:40.129
it down several times because it's just a small

00:15:40.129 --> 00:15:46.100
little row. You know, I mean, I And I didn't

00:15:46.100 --> 00:15:48.059
even know what the role was. They just said it

00:15:48.059 --> 00:15:51.399
was three lines, that's all. They just said,

00:15:51.740 --> 00:15:55.720
well, it's a long story, which is in the book,

00:15:55.820 --> 00:15:59.200
but they wanted me in because they thought the

00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:03.240
movie was cursed. This is true. They thought

00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:06.259
the movie was cursed because nothing was working.

00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:11.379
And I was up for one of the lead roles and I

00:16:11.379 --> 00:16:15.039
didn't get it. So they thought the way they handled

00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:19.039
me in auditioning and turning me down and stuff,

00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:22.080
they thought that that was kind of bad, bad form.

00:16:22.779 --> 00:16:28.019
It was uncool. But they took it to heart and

00:16:28.019 --> 00:16:33.600
they treated with me and negotiated with me because

00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.019
I didn't want to do it. I got angry. I finally

00:16:37.019 --> 00:16:40.259
did it. So no, we had no idea that it would be

00:16:40.259 --> 00:16:43.480
as big as it. I had no idea. I mean, all I was

00:16:43.480 --> 00:16:46.399
thinking was, I don't want to do this. You know,

00:16:46.500 --> 00:16:50.580
why are they bothering me? And it turned out

00:16:50.580 --> 00:16:53.059
they were bothering me because they thought that

00:16:53.059 --> 00:16:57.659
the way they handled me in the audition process

00:16:57.659 --> 00:17:02.379
was a bad omen. And they were trying to get rid

00:17:02.379 --> 00:17:08.849
of the curse of them. on handling me wrong. They

00:17:08.849 --> 00:17:11.450
thought if they get me back in the movie, hire

00:17:11.450 --> 00:17:14.809
me. Right. The curse would be lifted, which was

00:17:14.809 --> 00:17:17.170
ridiculous. I never heard of anything like that.

00:17:17.289 --> 00:17:19.529
These grown men, and they're talking about, you're

00:17:19.529 --> 00:17:24.190
like, you know, producers. So I finally, you

00:17:24.190 --> 00:17:26.869
know, they offered me so much money that I go,

00:17:27.269 --> 00:17:30.549
well, I think, okay, fine, you know, if you want

00:17:30.549 --> 00:17:34.140
me, I'll do it. Yeah. But it was, you know, a

00:17:34.140 --> 00:17:38.079
very small role. And so I just, you know, I flew

00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:41.099
and I mean, it took me. Well, it took me a little

00:17:41.099 --> 00:17:43.619
while to do because because they thought because

00:17:43.619 --> 00:17:47.539
the curse was happening while I was there when

00:17:47.539 --> 00:17:49.480
they hired me to get rid of the curse because

00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:52.660
they, you know, screwed around with me. Right.

00:17:52.980 --> 00:17:56.059
When I got there and they started to film this

00:17:56.059 --> 00:17:58.900
little piece of me in the police department.

00:18:00.049 --> 00:18:03.089
It was going wrong. And I suddenly realized,

00:18:03.710 --> 00:18:05.529
oh my God, this is what they're talking about.

00:18:05.829 --> 00:18:08.470
The movie is cursed. I mean, I was convinced

00:18:08.470 --> 00:18:11.029
when I got there, finally I said, oh my God,

00:18:11.130 --> 00:18:13.230
they're right. It's cursed. I don't know if it

00:18:13.230 --> 00:18:18.029
was because of me, but holy cow. So it took us

00:18:18.029 --> 00:18:21.210
a long time to do it because of this curse thing.

00:18:21.559 --> 00:18:24.539
you know, things would happen, lights would break,

00:18:25.140 --> 00:18:29.039
the camera would go off the track, the camera

00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:34.160
jiggled this. I mean, we had to shoot it 10 times

00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:39.960
for three lines. I was the only one in that little

00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:41.740
thing. I'm the only one, you know, it's just

00:18:41.740 --> 00:18:45.500
a camera going like that across. We had to shoot

00:18:45.500 --> 00:18:48.319
it 10 times and everybody was thinking, oh my

00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:52.119
god, it is cursed. This is true. They're all

00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:55.460
standing around gone. The producers were like,

00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.160
white. I mean, and thinking, well, what are you

00:18:58.160 --> 00:19:01.720
going to do? This is not working. And then finally

00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:06.859
we just got it and we finally got the shot. And

00:19:06.859 --> 00:19:10.099
they said, OK, get in the car because they had

00:19:10.099 --> 00:19:12.920
hired a limo and a first class ticket for me.

00:19:13.220 --> 00:19:22.960
And plus a lot of money. It was it was finally

00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:25.599
done and they wanted to get me back to the plane

00:19:25.599 --> 00:19:28.259
because I had a ticket Now there was that the

00:19:28.259 --> 00:19:32.779
plan was First class get him in you know limo

00:19:32.779 --> 00:19:35.259
from the airport to the get him in shoot him

00:19:35.259 --> 00:19:38.480
It'll only take one or two shots, you know, right

00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:42.160
20 minutes the most Get him back in the same

00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:44.319
limo the limo didn't even leave it was waiting

00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:48.599
outside for me and then back to the airport so

00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:52.289
the limo was waiting and 10 shots and everybody's

00:19:52.289 --> 00:19:54.450
going oh my god oh my god the curse the curse

00:19:54.450 --> 00:19:56.970
so finally when they got it i didn't want to

00:19:56.970 --> 00:20:00.130
leave because i wanted to know why it worked

00:20:00.130 --> 00:20:05.210
on the 10th but not nine other times i i and

00:20:05.210 --> 00:20:11.710
um i don't know how i found out oh um well no

00:20:11.710 --> 00:20:14.470
there were just mistakes it just was a coincidence

00:20:14.470 --> 00:20:17.529
that it took nine shots i mean right that's what

00:20:17.529 --> 00:20:22.130
happened uh but they had I demand they wanted,

00:20:22.589 --> 00:20:25.269
because they were paying me so much money, you

00:20:25.269 --> 00:20:28.710
know, for this first class flight and a limo

00:20:28.710 --> 00:20:32.009
and everything, they wanted to make sure everything

00:20:32.009 --> 00:20:33.609
worked, you know, because they were spending

00:20:33.609 --> 00:20:35.990
so much money for this one actor to come in and

00:20:35.990 --> 00:20:39.990
do three lines. It was ridiculous. So they kept

00:20:39.990 --> 00:20:43.230
on checking and I said, and they, because they

00:20:43.230 --> 00:20:44.630
were paying me so much money, they asked me,

00:20:44.630 --> 00:20:47.509
do you want anything? Is there anything you require?

00:20:48.170 --> 00:20:50.769
Because they were treating me like a star. Yeah.

00:20:51.109 --> 00:20:53.990
Like I said, and I'm thinking, these are three

00:20:53.990 --> 00:20:56.250
lines. What are they asking me what I want? I

00:20:56.250 --> 00:20:59.150
don't know. It was just very confusing. So I

00:20:59.150 --> 00:21:02.970
said, yeah, I want to be eating a donut when

00:21:02.970 --> 00:21:05.549
I say the three line. I mean, that was my big

00:21:05.549 --> 00:21:08.369
request. And I said, I want to be eating a dumb

00:21:08.369 --> 00:21:10.970
cop. I want to be eating a donut. Oh, I love

00:21:10.970 --> 00:21:14.329
it. So, yeah, that's where it came from. I just

00:21:14.329 --> 00:21:16.069
said, well, it's a cop, right? Because, yeah,

00:21:16.130 --> 00:21:18.839
yeah, it's a cop. They were on the phone. before

00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:20.980
the shoot you know and I said well okay I want

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:23.960
to be eating a donut a glazed donut and I said

00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:26.539
that at the second time no it's got to be a glazed

00:21:26.539 --> 00:21:28.880
donut I want to glaze as long as I'm asking I'm

00:21:28.880 --> 00:21:32.700
as well you know get the best kind of donut so

00:21:32.700 --> 00:21:35.579
they they said okay fine I mean they were surprised

00:21:35.579 --> 00:21:38.339
they said that's all you want just a glazed donut

00:21:38.339 --> 00:21:41.059
I said one glazed donut I want to be eating it

00:21:41.059 --> 00:21:43.460
yeah okay thank you okay to hung up and then

00:21:43.460 --> 00:21:46.539
the next day I flew And when I got there, the

00:21:46.539 --> 00:21:49.619
first thing I said out of my mouth, before I

00:21:49.619 --> 00:21:52.559
even said, hello, as I'm approaching, I said,

00:21:53.099 --> 00:21:55.500
you got the doughnut. Where's my glazed doughnut?

00:21:55.700 --> 00:21:57.799
Yes. And they didn't want to even think about

00:21:57.799 --> 00:21:59.920
that. They were thinking the movie is cursed.

00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:02.160
We've got to get this actor in, say his lines,

00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:04.359
and out of here. We've got to, you know, they're

00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:09.859
thinking doughnut. Right. They said, yeah, don't

00:22:09.859 --> 00:22:11.799
worry about it. Don't worry about it. Just get

00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:13.900
in your costume and let's just do this. They

00:22:13.900 --> 00:22:17.079
were just all flummoxed. So I got in the costume,

00:22:17.220 --> 00:22:20.160
but when I came out, I said, I want my donut.

00:22:20.420 --> 00:22:23.200
And I look at the camera. The whole thing was

00:22:23.200 --> 00:22:26.019
set up, waiting for me to get out of the plane,

00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:28.900
into the seat, and out of there. Right. Everything

00:22:28.900 --> 00:22:31.440
was set up. I just had to walk in, do my three

00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:34.000
lines, and get out of there. That's how weird

00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:37.019
it was. And when I looked next to the camera,

00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:40.279
and there was a, you know, these rolling trays

00:22:40.279 --> 00:22:42.319
and bakeries that, you know, they have these

00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:46.000
things. Okay. Right next to the camera was a

00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:49.960
rolling doner, was a rolling bakery tray. Oh

00:22:49.960 --> 00:22:52.940
wow. And all that was 20, you know, things. And

00:22:52.940 --> 00:22:59.160
on each level tray was 30 donuts. Oh my goodness.

00:22:59.779 --> 00:23:03.019
So there was like, I think, The way I counted

00:23:03.019 --> 00:23:05.079
it, maybe there was more trays, but anyway, I

00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:10.079
counted 600 donuts. Wow. 600 on this one tray.

00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:15.279
And I left, I was so surprised. I said, I just

00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.119
wanted one glazed donut. That's all I ate for,

00:23:18.299 --> 00:23:21.019
you know. I was totally confused and the producer

00:23:21.019 --> 00:23:23.799
thinking, this is a big joke. Oh yeah. He said,

00:23:23.900 --> 00:23:26.359
well, we may have to do a second shot, you know,

00:23:27.180 --> 00:23:32.700
second take. Ha ha ha ha. We did it and thank

00:23:32.700 --> 00:23:36.180
God they had 300 or 600 doughnuts. However, but

00:23:36.180 --> 00:23:40.440
there was hundreds, right? I mean 10 times and

00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:43.079
thank God there was 600 doughnuts because we

00:23:43.079 --> 00:23:46.180
needed 10 doughnuts I ate a donut each each time

00:23:46.180 --> 00:23:49.039
it was getting sick from the Donuts. Yeah, you're

00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:55.339
lazy. Now here's the whole point of this Story

00:23:55.339 --> 00:23:58.660
that in the film when you go watch it if you

00:23:58.660 --> 00:24:01.680
ever do families watch it every Christmas same

00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:04.920
I do all time. Okay, so now when you watch it

00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:08.640
check this out When I'm eating the doughnut when

00:24:08.640 --> 00:24:11.359
I'm eating the doughnut and talking on the phone

00:24:11.359 --> 00:24:15.819
a Crumb falls out of my mouth. There's a lot

00:24:15.819 --> 00:24:17.680
of crumbs falling all over the place, you know,

00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:19.779
they had it You know like sweep up each time

00:24:19.779 --> 00:24:23.339
they want to do another take On the last take

00:24:23.339 --> 00:24:28.240
the 10th take a crumb falls and it sticks on

00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:32.740
the mouthpiece. Now every kid in the world just

00:24:32.740 --> 00:24:36.440
comes up to me and says, how did you do the crumb?

00:24:36.539 --> 00:24:38.839
They don't care about me or the movie. They just

00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:40.700
wonder, how did you do the crumb? How did you

00:24:40.700 --> 00:24:45.420
do the crumb? And they go, was it a wire? Was

00:24:45.420 --> 00:24:48.680
it CGA? Was it a green screen? How did you do

00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:52.039
that? Was there somebody working the crumb? No.

00:24:52.539 --> 00:24:56.799
And I wouldn't leave after they got it. Nobody

00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.740
even saw the crumb during the take. It's after

00:24:59.740 --> 00:25:02.940
when the film came out and all these kids saw

00:25:02.940 --> 00:25:04.799
it. They came up to me and everybody said, how

00:25:04.799 --> 00:25:12.819
did they do the crumb? Somebody said, they said,

00:25:12.900 --> 00:25:15.079
yeah, we got it. And I said, well, wait a minute.

00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:19.000
Everybody laughed on that 10th take when the

00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:22.690
director said cut. Everybody laughed. But nobody

00:25:22.690 --> 00:25:25.049
left the other nine times when he said cut, you

00:25:25.049 --> 00:25:28.170
know, we got to do it again So I say why did

00:25:28.170 --> 00:25:30.150
everybody laugh on the tenth take and they said

00:25:30.150 --> 00:25:32.710
it doesn't really matter Larry we got it. It's

00:25:32.710 --> 00:25:36.430
it's good. We got it and Everybody had seen the

00:25:36.430 --> 00:25:39.690
crumb and that's why they left and they wanted

00:25:39.690 --> 00:25:42.470
to keep that that was like, you know capturing

00:25:42.470 --> 00:25:45.630
Lightning at a bottle. Well, it was a mistake

00:25:46.200 --> 00:25:48.700
And it was just great and everybody left. They

00:25:48.700 --> 00:25:50.519
said, oh, that's really funny. Let's put it in

00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:52.619
the movie. And I said, no, I want to see the

00:25:52.619 --> 00:25:54.740
mistake. And they said, no, don't worry about

00:25:54.740 --> 00:25:56.880
it. Just get in the car. You've got plane tickets.

00:25:57.019 --> 00:25:59.359
We've got to get you out of here. Because part

00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:01.440
of the contract was I had to sleep in my own

00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:05.700
bed the same day. So they wanted to get me out

00:26:05.700 --> 00:26:08.420
of there. I could complain. There's no, get in

00:26:08.420 --> 00:26:10.680
the limo. Get him to the airport. No. And I said,

00:26:10.740 --> 00:26:13.559
no, I'm not going until I figure this out. So

00:26:13.559 --> 00:26:17.640
I went to the bakery tray, which still had some

00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:22.000
donuts left. And I checked and I said, one of

00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:25.140
the things was the light broke on the ninth take.

00:26:25.880 --> 00:26:29.140
A light exploded right above because there was

00:26:29.140 --> 00:26:33.220
a soundstage. But it was very hot. So we all

00:26:33.220 --> 00:26:36.980
figured, oh, it's so hot. But it was part of

00:26:36.980 --> 00:26:40.359
the curse. We had to do it again. It was in the

00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:44.160
middle of the take. So I went over to the bakery

00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:47.799
tray and I looked and I saw the heat was so hot

00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:51.000
in this soundstage that the glaze on all the

00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:55.000
donuts were melted. It got soft. So when the

00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:57.799
donut I was eating it was a part of the glaze

00:26:57.799 --> 00:27:01.579
and the donut that fell and the glaze acted like

00:27:01.579 --> 00:27:04.839
glue so it just stuck. And the whole point was

00:27:04.839 --> 00:27:07.619
that the glue was just enough to keep it there,

00:27:07.700 --> 00:27:09.740
but not enough to keep it still. And it was on

00:27:09.740 --> 00:27:12.180
the side. So, you know, the microphone is here.

00:27:12.420 --> 00:27:15.299
It didn't land here. It landed here. So this

00:27:15.299 --> 00:27:19.759
crumb, just very slowly, hypnotically, was rolling

00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:24.839
attached by the glaze, just rolling down the

00:27:24.839 --> 00:27:27.799
side. And it wouldn't drop. And, you know, all

00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:30.460
logic said, gravity's got to make it drop, all

00:27:30.460 --> 00:27:32.980
the other. crumb, but it didn't. So it was like

00:27:32.980 --> 00:27:35.279
hypnotic. That's what the kids were watching.

00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:39.319
You know, so, so I figured out, oh, it's the

00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:42.160
glaze. It's it's melted. So that's what I said.

00:27:42.220 --> 00:27:44.519
Okay, put me in a limo. So they flew me home

00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:49.339
and I slept in my own bed. But so, yeah, I explained

00:27:49.339 --> 00:27:51.940
it in the movie a little more concisely, but

00:27:51.940 --> 00:27:56.920
I mean, in the book more. Can I just add one,

00:27:57.039 --> 00:28:00.359
one more thing? Yes. And the one thing is, It's

00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:02.460
Christmas, it's coming up for Christmas, you

00:28:02.460 --> 00:28:05.440
know, coming up 20 more days or whatever. And

00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:11.299
the book, not that one particular chapter, but

00:28:11.299 --> 00:28:14.000
the entire book, would be a great Christmas present.

00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:16.940
That's all I'm saying. Yes, I agree. Great Christmas

00:28:16.940 --> 00:28:20.299
present. It's so, you know, it's just right on.

00:28:20.519 --> 00:28:24.819
Everybody loves it. It's got, I think, 14 or

00:28:24.819 --> 00:28:29.519
15 gold stars on Amazon. It's pretty good. Yeah.

00:28:29.819 --> 00:28:33.519
It's got great reviews. OK, that's it. That's

00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.480
my air. That's Donut Story was the number one

00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:40.099
question that everybody was throwing at me once

00:28:40.099 --> 00:28:41.539
they found that you were coming on. They're like,

00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.119
ask him if that just happened. If that was. Wow.

00:28:45.299 --> 00:28:49.220
See, I told them not kidding around. Kids come

00:28:49.220 --> 00:28:51.859
if I walk on the street and a father with his

00:28:51.859 --> 00:28:55.140
kid is walking, the kid will run up to me. How

00:28:55.140 --> 00:28:57.299
did you do the donut thing? How did you do the

00:28:57.299 --> 00:29:00.460
crumb, the crumb? Then there's not you know great

00:29:00.460 --> 00:29:03.759
acting not great, you know cinematography nothing.

00:29:03.980 --> 00:29:08.519
I love the crumb. It was all in the crumb. I

00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:10.900
didn't do it you, not do it shooting. But the

00:29:10.900 --> 00:29:13.819
more the movie came out, it was a big hit. So

00:29:13.819 --> 00:29:17.220
I did lift the curse. I did my job. I did my

00:29:17.220 --> 00:29:20.460
job. Whatever it was, I did my job. Imagine they

00:29:20.460 --> 00:29:23.019
were right with that and they had to bring you

00:29:23.019 --> 00:29:24.460
back because the movie would have been cursed.

00:29:24.700 --> 00:29:27.980
Oh man, I gotta shut this. I can't shut this

00:29:27.980 --> 00:29:39.160
off. God damn it. Oh, man. And it goes. I will

00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:44.099
come back on when this hangs up, I think. Yeah,

00:29:44.559 --> 00:29:47.779
I can hear you. Yeah, there's no worries. But

00:29:47.779 --> 00:29:54.380
you can't see me. Am I on the screen? Oh, wow.

00:29:54.990 --> 00:29:57.349
Maybe you can't see you. If the phone call pulled

00:29:57.349 --> 00:29:59.170
up on your computer, it might have pulled away

00:29:59.170 --> 00:30:01.210
from Zoom. You might just have to click on Zoom

00:30:01.210 --> 00:30:08.230
to see. Well, I'm on Zoom. Let's see. Well, maybe

00:30:08.230 --> 00:30:13.250
I'm on Zoom. Yeah. Well, everybody could see

00:30:13.250 --> 00:30:17.230
you're golden. How about now, Larry? Because

00:30:17.230 --> 00:30:19.569
I know last time we spoke, I believe it was two.

00:30:19.750 --> 00:30:23.329
But how many books you on now? I got three. I'm

00:30:23.329 --> 00:30:25.670
writing, I'm just finished my third book. I'm

00:30:25.670 --> 00:30:28.329
just finishing it right now. I'm on to the, I'm

00:30:28.329 --> 00:30:32.210
just polishing the last 10 pages so it ends really

00:30:32.210 --> 00:30:36.450
cool. But yeah, but that was, that's a memoir.

00:30:36.950 --> 00:30:40.509
The Home Alone stuff called That Guy. It's called

00:30:40.509 --> 00:30:42.630
That Guy. It's on Amazon. It's a great Christmas.

00:30:44.910 --> 00:30:48.369
That's a memoir. That's a reality. It's real.

00:30:49.589 --> 00:30:54.970
In other words, it's a nonfiction book. But this

00:30:54.970 --> 00:30:57.630
one I just finished, which is called Barnum's

00:30:57.630 --> 00:31:01.509
Journal. That's a fiction. I made it up. I've

00:31:01.509 --> 00:31:03.910
never seen this. So I thought I would write it

00:31:03.910 --> 00:31:12.089
because I'd never seen it. Nonfiction is a very

00:31:12.089 --> 00:31:18.400
small sales. book sales. Right. No, but not many

00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:22.599
people buy nonfiction books. The mass market

00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:26.980
is fiction. Right. And 80 % of that mass market

00:31:26.980 --> 00:31:30.900
is women. Really strange, but it's true. So women

00:31:30.900 --> 00:31:35.880
buy 80 % of the books out there. So I thought

00:31:35.880 --> 00:31:39.579
my second, my third book would be a nonfiction

00:31:39.579 --> 00:31:44.529
book. So what I did was I made up a memoir. I

00:31:44.529 --> 00:31:47.170
made up a character, like an actor, and then

00:31:47.170 --> 00:31:49.970
I gave him a life, and then I wrote his life.

00:31:50.450 --> 00:31:54.730
So it's a fiction, non -fiction book. So I thought,

00:31:55.089 --> 00:31:57.490
I've never seen one. I've never seen a non -fiction

00:31:57.490 --> 00:32:01.809
memoir. But I think there must be some out there.

00:32:02.269 --> 00:32:05.130
Anyway, so that's coming out. That'll take a

00:32:05.130 --> 00:32:08.190
couple of months to come out. So that guy is

00:32:08.190 --> 00:32:10.829
the one to get for Christmas. Now we spoke last

00:32:10.829 --> 00:32:13.390
time. Are you going to read the audio version

00:32:13.390 --> 00:32:15.549
of the audio book because I'm thinking about

00:32:15.549 --> 00:32:18.349
it. If I can get this Christmas pitch out, if

00:32:18.349 --> 00:32:22.410
I can get enough because my my publisher won't

00:32:22.410 --> 00:32:26.569
pay for the reading of the book. But it turns

00:32:26.569 --> 00:32:31.029
out that if the author of the book, any book,

00:32:31.490 --> 00:32:34.589
the author of the book does the reading and the

00:32:34.589 --> 00:32:37.650
buyer of the book knows that that, oh, it's read

00:32:37.650 --> 00:32:42.490
by the by the author. Then it'll sell way more

00:32:42.490 --> 00:32:45.509
than if just they hire a professional reader

00:32:45.509 --> 00:32:48.309
to read it. Absolutely. I'm gonna read it, but

00:32:48.309 --> 00:32:52.849
but it costs money So I'm gonna have to see how

00:32:52.849 --> 00:32:56.230
this Christmas move does and that'll give me

00:32:56.230 --> 00:32:59.569
enough money to do that So Larry what what other

00:32:59.569 --> 00:33:01.849
role were you up for at home alone that they

00:33:01.849 --> 00:33:04.930
didn't give you? Daniel Stern's role. Oh, really?

00:33:05.089 --> 00:33:10.660
Okay So, so yeah, so when I didn't get it that

00:33:10.660 --> 00:33:13.940
that role Yeah, um, and you know, I mean you

00:33:13.940 --> 00:33:16.579
get roles and you don't get a role You know that

00:33:16.579 --> 00:33:20.079
you just go in you do it and either you get it

00:33:20.079 --> 00:33:22.740
or not I you know, I don't dwell on it. You just

00:33:22.740 --> 00:33:26.259
dump it and go on to the next job So when I didn't

00:33:26.259 --> 00:33:29.339
get it, I just you know, okay fine, but then

00:33:29.339 --> 00:33:32.259
they called me You know a couple of weeks later

00:33:32.259 --> 00:33:35.039
three weeks later and say hey man the movie is

00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:39.240
cursed, Daniel Stern is going to quit if he doesn't

00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:42.680
get more money. As much money as Joe Pesci. Oh,

00:33:42.819 --> 00:33:45.000
God. Daniel Stern was trying to act like a star

00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:47.160
and I want more money. So they said we're going

00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:49.599
to fire him. You know, he's not worth what Joe

00:33:49.599 --> 00:33:52.259
Pesci gets. So we're going to get Larry Hakin.

00:33:52.460 --> 00:33:57.000
And they told Daniel Stern that. They said, well,

00:33:57.279 --> 00:34:02.460
we have Larry is our next, if you quit, we'll

00:34:02.460 --> 00:34:05.220
let you quit. Right, you know the money and we're

00:34:05.220 --> 00:34:08.739
gonna get Larry So they told him that and so

00:34:08.739 --> 00:34:11.559
he didn't quit he said well because they not

00:34:11.559 --> 00:34:14.159
because of me is because they were gonna replace

00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:17.280
them in other words his trick didn't work his

00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:21.559
blood work So he just said none. Okay. I'll work

00:34:21.559 --> 00:34:24.059
for the so when they called me and they said,

00:34:24.059 --> 00:34:26.260
you know, we're gonna give you three lines because

00:34:26.260 --> 00:34:28.440
we want you in because it how he handled you

00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:35.440
with the Daniel Stern thing they said I was insulted

00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:38.260
because, and I told him this, I said, you're

00:34:38.260 --> 00:34:42.639
asking me to be back in the movie, and the only

00:34:42.639 --> 00:34:49.000
available part is a cop to say three lines after

00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:52.860
I was going to co -star with Joe Pesci, according

00:34:52.860 --> 00:34:58.170
to you. I said, no, that's ridiculous. Three

00:34:58.170 --> 00:35:02.309
lines after being a costar. No, I thought, you

00:35:02.309 --> 00:35:04.769
know, these guys, what are they doing? This is

00:35:04.769 --> 00:35:07.469
they're trying to, you know, prank me or something.

00:35:07.849 --> 00:35:11.269
That's why I kept on turning it down. Wow. Hey

00:35:11.269 --> 00:35:13.570
man, I was going to be costar with Joe Pesci,

00:35:13.690 --> 00:35:15.789
you know, three line, no. So, you know, I just

00:35:15.789 --> 00:35:18.849
playing games with them because I figured, well,

00:35:18.869 --> 00:35:21.210
you know, what am I going to get $200, $100,

00:35:21.670 --> 00:35:24.190
you know, whatever they pay for three lines.

00:35:24.349 --> 00:35:26.989
I don't know. That's like, oh, what's that? So

00:35:26.989 --> 00:35:29.030
that's why I kept and then finally when they

00:35:29.030 --> 00:35:31.929
hit me with the first class and the limos and

00:35:31.929 --> 00:35:34.789
the Thousands of dollars they were gonna pay

00:35:34.789 --> 00:35:42.599
me well Okay What a great story and To be honest,

00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:44.780
because when Daniel started in that role, you're

00:35:44.780 --> 00:35:46.340
like, oh, that's a perfect role for him. But

00:35:46.340 --> 00:35:48.920
then you think Larry Hankin in that role. I would

00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:51.280
have, I would have killed. But you know, I would

00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:53.280
have killed it every job I didn't get, you know,

00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:57.480
that's like a hunt. If I got 100, I think I found

00:35:57.480 --> 00:36:00.679
out from the, from podcasters like you, because

00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:04.079
they do research. So they told me, several have

00:36:04.079 --> 00:36:12.239
told me that I've done, I've had 203 jobs. Wow.

00:36:13.260 --> 00:36:18.099
Movies, television, I have 203. But that means

00:36:18.099 --> 00:36:20.579
that I've auditioned five times more than that,

00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:23.239
because my averages are like, I get one out of

00:36:23.239 --> 00:36:26.139
five. Generally, it's one out of seven, something

00:36:26.139 --> 00:36:27.980
like that, one out of five, one out of seven,

00:36:28.099 --> 00:36:31.480
one out of 10, that you get. So that means that

00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:38.980
five times 200 is what I didn't get. Right. You

00:36:38.980 --> 00:36:43.119
know, it makes you it calms you down, you know,

00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:46.719
you think you're that big a deal Find it fascinating

00:36:46.719 --> 00:36:49.539
because everything I've seen you in and I'm not

00:36:49.539 --> 00:36:50.840
saying this because you're on the show I'm being

00:36:50.840 --> 00:36:54.219
honest you actually add to it every scene that

00:36:54.219 --> 00:36:57.119
you're in whether it's a small roll or a big

00:36:57.119 --> 00:36:59.860
roll you bring a lot to the table and really

00:36:59.860 --> 00:37:03.019
amp up what's going on so for casting directors

00:37:03.019 --> 00:37:06.360
to Kind of see that in your tenure doing, you

00:37:06.360 --> 00:37:09.730
know auditions up into not have you uh in it

00:37:09.730 --> 00:37:13.070
it just blows my mind that people are that uh

00:37:13.070 --> 00:37:15.269
well they that was the only part they had left

00:37:15.269 --> 00:37:16.929
because there were three weeks into the movie

00:37:16.929 --> 00:37:19.449
and they told me i mean because i i i asked a

00:37:19.449 --> 00:37:22.550
lot of questions about the whole thing uh they

00:37:22.550 --> 00:37:24.570
were into the movie of three weeks and the reason

00:37:24.570 --> 00:37:27.070
that they called me was after three weeks of

00:37:27.070 --> 00:37:30.250
shooting yeah for three days or they were into

00:37:30.250 --> 00:37:33.179
it they were shooting it After the amount of

00:37:33.179 --> 00:37:35.320
days that they were shooting, nothing was working

00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:37.380
according to them, according to the producers.

00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:40.900
They said nothing was going right. And then they

00:37:40.900 --> 00:37:43.400
came to the conclusion the movie is cursed because

00:37:43.400 --> 00:37:48.019
we dissed Larry Hankin. Wow. For some reason,

00:37:48.260 --> 00:37:52.119
you know, that became the thing, Larry, not the

00:37:52.119 --> 00:37:54.900
other people that they didn't hire. Right. Because

00:37:54.900 --> 00:37:58.480
of this way they screwed me around with. Daniel

00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:01.739
and you know use it my name and the no negotiations

00:38:01.739 --> 00:38:04.000
and I don't know all that stuff that I have no

00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:09.460
idea what You know that that stuff sure Did you

00:38:09.460 --> 00:38:12.539
see let me let me answer the question that you

00:38:12.539 --> 00:38:15.159
raised the point the point is that people have

00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:19.179
told me that that if you look at my Over of my

00:38:19.179 --> 00:38:23.099
200 rolls. I'm not on screen for a long time

00:38:23.099 --> 00:38:25.949
and and that's on purpose. I I do that. I turn

00:38:25.949 --> 00:38:29.190
down very big role. I turn it down. Not because

00:38:29.190 --> 00:38:31.530
I don't want the money. It's because I have very

00:38:31.530 --> 00:38:35.250
serious ADHD and dyslexia. So it takes me a very

00:38:35.250 --> 00:38:38.909
long time to memorize lines. So if I see that

00:38:38.909 --> 00:38:40.989
the amount of time it would take me to learn

00:38:40.989 --> 00:38:46.309
the lines is more than the ramp up time to get

00:38:46.309 --> 00:38:49.570
to actually to shoot. Right. Because there is

00:38:49.570 --> 00:38:53.030
a negotiation thing with me and my old agents.

00:38:53.829 --> 00:38:57.409
that said that, you know, you can phone in if

00:38:57.409 --> 00:38:59.469
you're a big star, not me, but a big star, a

00:38:59.469 --> 00:39:01.809
big star. You can phone in and say, you know,

00:39:01.989 --> 00:39:04.190
Larry needs a limiter to be picked up. He needs

00:39:04.190 --> 00:39:07.670
to be driven to the set. He needs a cup of tea

00:39:07.670 --> 00:39:10.429
when he gets there. You can say all that if you're,

00:39:10.449 --> 00:39:15.190
you know, like, you know, Tom Hanks, you know,

00:39:15.230 --> 00:39:17.150
you can say, I need this, I want this, I want,

00:39:17.230 --> 00:39:20.489
and they'll give it to you. You know, okay. So,

00:39:22.269 --> 00:39:26.090
I wanted to know why they were offering me all

00:39:26.090 --> 00:39:28.389
this when I'm always getting like three lines

00:39:28.389 --> 00:39:31.909
and they were giving me all this stuff. So I

00:39:31.909 --> 00:39:39.289
learned about that, but the lag time, I didn't

00:39:39.289 --> 00:39:42.409
have to call in and say send me the script first

00:39:42.409 --> 00:39:47.130
for three lines. But generally, when I can do

00:39:47.130 --> 00:39:50.809
what stars do, I can say Larry needs the script.

00:39:52.369 --> 00:39:54.650
Now, you know, that's like something Tom Hanks

00:39:54.650 --> 00:39:58.050
would say. But because of my dyslexia, I can,

00:39:58.409 --> 00:40:00.269
I make that demand. I mean, they don't have to

00:40:00.269 --> 00:40:03.250
meet it when I didn't get somebody else. But

00:40:03.250 --> 00:40:06.909
with Tom Hanks, no, you meet it. So I said, I

00:40:06.909 --> 00:40:10.090
need my script early. Now, I didn't for the three

00:40:10.090 --> 00:40:14.130
lines. But sometimes I will see that the time

00:40:14.130 --> 00:40:17.449
I need to memorize what they're giving me, there's

00:40:17.449 --> 00:40:21.300
no way they can give me that early. Yeah. Two

00:40:21.300 --> 00:40:24.300
weeks, three weeks, four weeks. But once you

00:40:24.300 --> 00:40:26.960
get to four weeks, I'll need four weeks to memorize

00:40:26.960 --> 00:40:30.099
like a lead role or something like that. Gotcha.

00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:33.420
That's just too much time. The script isn't ready

00:40:33.420 --> 00:40:36.119
maybe four weeks before they start to shoot.

00:40:36.539 --> 00:40:39.900
Yeah. So can't promise that. So I have to turn

00:40:39.900 --> 00:40:42.400
it down. And I do it, you know, I mean, like,

00:40:42.639 --> 00:40:47.639
no, there's no gun to my head. I could, but when

00:40:47.639 --> 00:40:51.719
I, when the parts started to get too big where

00:40:51.719 --> 00:40:57.059
I saw the lag time, the ramp time, it's too long.

00:40:57.219 --> 00:40:59.559
I'm going to have to turn it down. So I turned

00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:06.739
it down. But that's like a coming to that point.

00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:08.980
In other words, the parts were getting bigger

00:41:08.980 --> 00:41:11.960
and bigger as I got better and better and more

00:41:11.960 --> 00:41:15.400
known. Until finally I got to a part big enough

00:41:15.400 --> 00:41:18.539
where I saw, wow, the lag time is not going to

00:41:18.539 --> 00:41:23.090
be enough. So I turned it down. And then it became

00:41:23.090 --> 00:41:27.190
a habit. Do I have the leg time or don't I? I

00:41:27.190 --> 00:41:30.550
do? Okay, I'll do the part. I don't. Now a lot

00:41:30.550 --> 00:41:37.489
of actors, a lot of actors have ADHD or dyslexia.

00:41:38.010 --> 00:41:40.130
But they don't have it bad enough where they

00:41:40.130 --> 00:41:44.929
could turn, they just get the part sooner than

00:41:44.929 --> 00:41:47.829
everybody else. But they don't have it bad enough

00:41:47.829 --> 00:41:52.579
dyslexia. that they can't meet, you know, the

00:41:52.579 --> 00:41:57.699
lag time. But I'm really, I got it bad. But I

00:41:57.699 --> 00:42:00.159
mean, there's work around. I've never been fired.

00:42:00.699 --> 00:42:05.119
But I saw in Breaking Bad when I did the movie.

00:42:05.960 --> 00:42:12.360
Yeah, I had to walk around the car. And I thought

00:42:12.360 --> 00:42:15.280
I didn't need the lag time. So I didn't tell

00:42:15.280 --> 00:42:17.699
him anything. I just got it when everybody else

00:42:17.699 --> 00:42:21.500
got my part. And it was just a walk around. But

00:42:21.500 --> 00:42:24.599
it was right on the cusp of, can I memorize it

00:42:24.599 --> 00:42:28.539
in time or not? And when I got there on the set

00:42:28.539 --> 00:42:33.559
filming, I started to go up on my lines. And

00:42:33.559 --> 00:42:38.960
Vince Gilligan sensed that something was wrong.

00:42:39.300 --> 00:42:42.760
He's not, you know, my memory was going there.

00:42:43.179 --> 00:42:46.500
Right. But he said, OK, let's just take 10 minutes,

00:42:46.719 --> 00:42:49.800
Larry. you know, just step aside, get your lines

00:42:49.800 --> 00:42:52.739
down, right? Which I did. And he goes, okay,

00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:55.239
you got it? I go, yeah. He said, okay, come on.

00:42:55.400 --> 00:42:58.019
And we did it. And it was fine. So that was 10

00:42:58.019 --> 00:43:01.380
minutes substituting time. But it was a signal

00:43:01.380 --> 00:43:05.219
to me that, okay, this is the length of this.

00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:07.699
I see where I have to start turning down roles

00:43:07.699 --> 00:43:11.079
if I can. So that that was that. And so I just

00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:15.179
decided to get out. Yeah. You know, I just so

00:43:15.179 --> 00:43:17.800
I stopped. Well, I didn't I didn't retire. I

00:43:17.800 --> 00:43:22.780
just got out for about I think that was in in

00:43:22.780 --> 00:43:28.980
2012 or 2013 I think I don't know 2012 so I just

00:43:28.980 --> 00:43:31.960
stepped aside and I told my agents I'm gonna

00:43:31.960 --> 00:43:35.280
take some time off a couple of years No more

00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:37.039
auditions during that time is what you're saying.

00:43:37.179 --> 00:43:41.360
Yeah, no nothing. I just like hands off I'm out

00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:46.559
and then and then doing that while I'm out My

00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:52.400
agents retired. I didn't have an agent. I thought,

00:43:52.739 --> 00:43:55.639
oh man, you know, to get an agent is just really

00:43:55.639 --> 00:43:58.760
worse than memorizing lines. I didn't want to

00:43:58.760 --> 00:44:01.440
do it. So now I just work for friends. I mean,

00:44:01.500 --> 00:44:04.260
if you call me, you know, I'll go, yeah, okay.

00:44:04.860 --> 00:44:07.460
But I don't do it through agents or anything.

00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:11.059
I don't have work. I'm a writer now. There you

00:44:11.059 --> 00:44:14.199
go. But to get an agent now in Hollywood, I don't

00:44:14.199 --> 00:44:16.280
think you would have much issue. It wouldn't

00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:17.920
be like when you were first looking for agents,

00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:21.960
you got a body of work that's ginormous. Yeah,

00:44:22.239 --> 00:44:24.340
but I don't want to go through. Now that I'm

00:44:24.340 --> 00:44:26.980
away and I see I got time to myself and I don't

00:44:26.980 --> 00:44:31.179
have this sweat, the flop sweats. Can I memorize

00:44:31.179 --> 00:44:34.380
this in time? Yeah. I don't have all that. I've

00:44:34.380 --> 00:44:38.260
not had it for years. And here's the bottom line,

00:44:38.360 --> 00:44:40.380
which I've never ever mentioned. So I'll tell

00:44:40.380 --> 00:44:43.840
you guys, because we're at that point, is I never

00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:47.119
wanted to be an actor and I still don't. I can

00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:50.679
do it. And it turns out I can do it very well.

00:44:50.900 --> 00:44:54.119
But I don't have a fire in the belly. I mean,

00:44:54.440 --> 00:45:02.159
I don't want to own a restaurant or I don't want

00:45:02.159 --> 00:45:05.000
to be in finance. and I don't want to be an actor.

00:45:05.380 --> 00:45:07.820
I mean, it's not that I hate it. Yeah. It just

00:45:07.820 --> 00:45:11.280
never occurred to me in my life to be an actor.

00:45:11.739 --> 00:45:14.239
That wasn't on my agenda. I wanted to be a stand

00:45:14.239 --> 00:45:17.480
-up comedian. I wanted to be a clown. I wanted

00:45:17.480 --> 00:45:21.340
to do nothing. I wanted to just hang out. You

00:45:21.340 --> 00:45:23.380
know, all those things, you know, occurred to

00:45:23.380 --> 00:45:24.960
me. But, you know, well, I don't know how to

00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:27.219
do it. What's the process? I mean, I don't think

00:45:27.219 --> 00:45:29.659
so. You know, my father didn't want. And then

00:45:29.659 --> 00:45:32.809
when I brought up, you know, show business at

00:45:32.809 --> 00:45:35.909
all because I was funny. I was a funny guy in

00:45:35.909 --> 00:45:39.130
public school and high school and college. Yeah,

00:45:39.150 --> 00:45:43.289
just funny, you know. Yeah. So it did occur to

00:45:43.289 --> 00:45:45.869
people. Yeah, why don't you be, you know, an

00:45:45.869 --> 00:45:49.909
actor? You know, be a funny actor. Yeah, I never,

00:45:50.130 --> 00:45:54.190
I don't know. So when I dropped out, it never

00:45:54.190 --> 00:45:57.550
occurred to me to drop back in. Yeah, I was just

00:45:57.550 --> 00:46:00.650
like back in high school or college. You know,

00:46:00.849 --> 00:46:03.730
I'm back at the beginning. I was a stand -up

00:46:03.730 --> 00:46:07.349
comedian. I did love that. I opened for Woody

00:46:07.349 --> 00:46:10.309
Allen, and I was pretty good. I opened for Woody

00:46:10.309 --> 00:46:13.409
Allen. Excuse me? You were doing it back in the

00:46:13.409 --> 00:46:15.730
day, like Lenny Bruce times and stuff. Yeah,

00:46:15.730 --> 00:46:17.510
I used to go to see Lenny Bruce. I mean, he was

00:46:17.510 --> 00:46:20.369
my man. He was my go -to man. I mean, I just

00:46:20.369 --> 00:46:26.329
opened for Woody because his manager discovered

00:46:26.329 --> 00:46:28.610
me. You know, I was doing coffee house stand

00:46:28.610 --> 00:46:32.170
-up. I loved it. Have you ever thought about

00:46:32.170 --> 00:46:35.630
getting back into that, Larry? Yes, that's my

00:46:35.630 --> 00:46:38.590
next move, after I finish this book and get it

00:46:38.590 --> 00:46:42.329
out. I'm writing a one -man show. I used to do

00:46:42.329 --> 00:46:48.429
one -man shows when I first started acting, because

00:46:48.429 --> 00:46:51.349
I had the time. I wasn't doing acting that much,

00:46:51.489 --> 00:46:53.949
you know, your first starting. So you do an audition

00:46:53.949 --> 00:46:56.329
here and audition there. So I had like days and

00:46:56.329 --> 00:46:59.699
sometimes weeks where nothing was going on. I

00:46:59.699 --> 00:47:01.340
had an agent, but you know, blah, blah, blah.

00:47:01.739 --> 00:47:04.579
Yeah. So I would write little one -man shows

00:47:04.579 --> 00:47:06.400
for myself and I do it in these little black

00:47:06.400 --> 00:47:09.780
box theaters. There's a lot that's starting up

00:47:09.780 --> 00:47:12.960
again now. I got one here, the fanatic salon.

00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:15.860
So I'm going to start working there. Once you

00:47:15.860 --> 00:47:18.260
get that fleshed out, Larry, you should really

00:47:18.260 --> 00:47:20.960
take a trip down to Austin, Texas and go to the

00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:24.460
comedy mothership. Joe Rogan owns it. I'm sure

00:47:24.460 --> 00:47:27.000
he knows who Larry Hanken is. Let him know that

00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:29.019
you got this one -man show. I guarantee he'll

00:47:29.019 --> 00:47:31.579
get you in there and you'll be back with like

00:47:31.579 --> 00:47:33.920
a big comedy scene there. It's a real big scene

00:47:33.920 --> 00:47:37.000
over there. Really? Oh, and I think he welcomed

00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:39.559
you with open arms, dude. I don't know, man.

00:47:39.760 --> 00:47:44.139
I mean, I don't I don't dig Joe Rodolo's point

00:47:44.139 --> 00:47:48.219
of view. That's Joe Rogan. But well, yeah. Joe

00:47:48.219 --> 00:47:50.719
Rogan. He's all he's all over the map. Who did

00:47:50.719 --> 00:47:57.989
I say? Joe who? Joe Rottolo. Yeah, Joe, Joe.

00:47:58.730 --> 00:48:04.409
Yeah, whatever is named. And I don't I really

00:48:04.409 --> 00:48:07.550
don't like Texas for the same reason. The heat.

00:48:08.250 --> 00:48:11.590
Well, yeah. Yeah, the heat. I think if you were

00:48:11.590 --> 00:48:15.429
to have a chat with Joe Rogan, you would you

00:48:15.429 --> 00:48:19.280
wouldn't think I mean, I when I was I was doing

00:48:19.280 --> 00:48:22.340
Lenny Bruce material. I mean, cops would pull

00:48:22.340 --> 00:48:24.539
me off the stage. I mean, I had people coming

00:48:24.539 --> 00:48:27.820
at me with beer bottles. Isn't that crazy? Yeah.

00:48:28.199 --> 00:48:31.219
Amazing. We were saying, hey, they cancel you

00:48:31.219 --> 00:48:33.440
and like, don't put your videos up. Back then,

00:48:33.780 --> 00:48:35.760
you're almost getting arrested for saying what

00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:39.360
you wanted to say on stage. Yeah, I mean, well,

00:48:39.539 --> 00:48:42.320
cops either pulled me off the stage. I've had...

00:48:42.250 --> 00:48:45.150
20 policemen marked and when I was doing arena

00:48:45.150 --> 00:48:47.150
show for the Love and Spoonful, I was opening

00:48:47.150 --> 00:48:51.650
for rock bands back in the 60s and 70s. So yeah,

00:48:51.789 --> 00:48:53.530
when I was opening for the Love and Spoonful,

00:48:53.690 --> 00:48:59.829
20 policemen marched onto the stage from the

00:48:59.829 --> 00:49:03.329
back of the room, marched down the aisles up

00:49:03.329 --> 00:49:06.650
onto the stage and put a hand on my shoulder

00:49:06.650 --> 00:49:09.150
very gently. I don't think they actually understood

00:49:09.150 --> 00:49:11.989
why they were pulling me off the stage. The dean

00:49:11.989 --> 00:49:15.769
of the college was a Washington University in,

00:49:15.889 --> 00:49:19.530
I don't know, Alabama or I don't know, one of

00:49:19.530 --> 00:49:22.570
these southern states. The dean of the college

00:49:22.570 --> 00:49:24.630
called the police because they didn't like me

00:49:24.630 --> 00:49:30.329
saying fuck on stage stuff. So, you know, and

00:49:30.329 --> 00:49:34.820
I was kind of edgy. So they marched up and told

00:49:34.820 --> 00:49:38.260
me because they were standing in the back and

00:49:38.260 --> 00:49:43.360
the audience Said do the clean stuff The audience

00:49:43.360 --> 00:49:47.340
I mean is a college kids and they and they didn't

00:49:47.340 --> 00:49:49.800
want me to curse on stage. It was you know, Texas

00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:53.079
Where was it? I don't know. It was a South. I

00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:56.079
don't know who's Texas or not No, that was another

00:49:56.079 --> 00:50:00.239
thing. I oh I've had a wonderful life man. I

00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:03.420
do know that this is a real it's official the

00:50:03.420 --> 00:50:09.840
state of Texas has officially prohibited me from

00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:13.860
entering the state. That's real. That's down.

00:50:14.280 --> 00:50:17.780
That's a law. That's legal. Wow. When was this?

00:50:18.440 --> 00:50:24.980
This was in the 70s when they kidnapped the state

00:50:24.980 --> 00:50:31.239
of Texas kidnapped my girlfriend. The cops busted

00:50:31.239 --> 00:50:36.030
her. for going to Texas with a group and taking

00:50:36.030 --> 00:50:38.969
acid. And she was walking on the street at night

00:50:38.969 --> 00:50:44.449
in a neighborhood, Dallas, I think, walking around

00:50:44.449 --> 00:50:47.530
at late at night barefoot, like a hippie, you

00:50:47.530 --> 00:50:50.789
know, this was in the early 70s. Barefoot just

00:50:50.789 --> 00:50:56.809
with a t -shirt and just jeans. Barefoot, long

00:50:56.809 --> 00:51:00.710
hair, you know, beads. walking in a Dallas neighborhood

00:51:00.710 --> 00:51:03.570
and the cops pulled her over. They were going

00:51:03.570 --> 00:51:07.469
to bust her for being a hippie. Just there, that

00:51:07.469 --> 00:51:10.789
was an excuse. She didn't have any ID or anything.

00:51:11.230 --> 00:51:13.750
She was on acid. She just walked out of the house

00:51:13.750 --> 00:51:16.510
that they were staying at and decided to walk

00:51:16.510 --> 00:51:18.690
around the neighborhood. And the cops pulled

00:51:18.690 --> 00:51:20.730
her over. She didn't have any ID, so they busted

00:51:20.730 --> 00:51:24.309
her. So she bit one of the policemen. So they

00:51:24.309 --> 00:51:26.429
beat her up and put her in an insane asylum.

00:51:27.039 --> 00:51:30.579
And I had to go get her from California to the

00:51:30.579 --> 00:51:34.539
insane asylum. A real asylum man. I mean, I'm

00:51:34.539 --> 00:51:38.619
not talking movie stuff. This was heavy duty.

00:51:38.980 --> 00:51:46.059
It was bad. It was bad. It was great. So when

00:51:46.059 --> 00:51:54.699
I got there, yeah, I had a... It was a big deal.

00:51:55.480 --> 00:52:00.780
And so when I got her, finally, I was a lawyer

00:52:00.780 --> 00:52:04.320
and, oh man, it was just a big huge thing. But

00:52:04.320 --> 00:52:13.519
the lawyer came to me at the asylum, at the dean

00:52:13.519 --> 00:52:15.739
of the asylum, I don't know what to call him,

00:52:15.940 --> 00:52:18.960
the boss in his office. We were in the office

00:52:18.960 --> 00:52:22.059
signing papers so they could release her to my

00:52:22.059 --> 00:52:26.619
custody. to get her out of Texas. They said,

00:52:26.679 --> 00:52:29.420
we will release her to your custody, Mr. Hanken,

00:52:29.920 --> 00:52:33.539
if you promise to get her out within 24 hours.

00:52:33.800 --> 00:52:36.639
If either of you, and this was the lawyer now

00:52:36.639 --> 00:52:39.820
reading this to me, who was a document saying,

00:52:40.039 --> 00:52:44.840
I had to get her out of the state of Texas within

00:52:44.840 --> 00:52:49.840
24 hours. If either of us were found to be within

00:52:49.840 --> 00:52:54.219
the state of Texas, After 24 hours, we will both

00:52:54.219 --> 00:53:03.519
be arrested as not being wanted in Texas. I don't

00:53:03.519 --> 00:53:07.500
know what the legal term was, but undesirables.

00:53:07.920 --> 00:53:12.900
Wow. We will be arrested as undesirables. You

00:53:12.900 --> 00:53:16.719
were the first deplorable. Yes, I was the first.

00:53:17.699 --> 00:53:19.800
And my girlfriend were the first deplorable.

00:53:20.159 --> 00:53:22.820
So we had it. So I took her back to the house

00:53:22.820 --> 00:53:25.539
and they were beating her up, man, because she

00:53:25.539 --> 00:53:28.980
had beaten the police. So she was black and blue.

00:53:30.559 --> 00:53:34.449
And they had drugged her and taken blood samples,

00:53:34.909 --> 00:53:38.070
and they treated her really bad because she fought.

00:53:38.409 --> 00:53:43.849
I mean, she was, in fact, a 60s hippie who was

00:53:43.849 --> 00:53:46.409
against, you know, the government. Sure. You

00:53:46.409 --> 00:53:51.869
know, she was one of the hippies. Yeah. So she

00:53:51.869 --> 00:53:55.469
had that attitude, you know, undrugged and on

00:53:55.469 --> 00:54:00.230
acid. Yeah. So when she came down finally for

00:54:00.230 --> 00:54:03.110
the acid and she was in an insane asylum locked

00:54:03.110 --> 00:54:07.989
up I saw where they had her was awful man Together

00:54:07.989 --> 00:54:09.849
they probably would have kept her forever and

00:54:09.849 --> 00:54:13.110
just sedated and all that stuff now they said

00:54:13.110 --> 00:54:18.090
that The threat was they were gonna because I

00:54:18.090 --> 00:54:20.889
came there and I had a chip on my shoulder too

00:54:20.889 --> 00:54:23.010
like hey man Who the fuck do you people think

00:54:23.010 --> 00:54:25.659
you are? You know I I did the whole thing. I

00:54:25.659 --> 00:54:28.099
was just wrong. Totally wrong. I was out of line.

00:54:28.760 --> 00:54:32.179
I mean, I was in Texas. I was in an insane asylum,

00:54:32.980 --> 00:54:36.860
in an insane asylum, you know, within their grounds.

00:54:37.260 --> 00:54:39.980
And I'm mouthing off to them about, you know,

00:54:40.360 --> 00:54:43.639
who do you think you people are? And they're

00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:46.159
saying, Mr. Hankin, if you don't shut up, we're

00:54:46.159 --> 00:54:48.559
going to commit you. We can do that. We can keep

00:54:48.559 --> 00:54:52.820
you for three days. And it's totally legal. and

00:54:52.820 --> 00:54:55.920
a lawyer out who I had with me, he's saying,

00:54:56.219 --> 00:54:58.420
shut up, shut up. He's telling me, keep quiet.

00:54:58.579 --> 00:55:01.880
Don't do this, Kerry. And he promised his lawyer

00:55:01.880 --> 00:55:04.320
they can do that. Well, I turned to my lawyer

00:55:04.320 --> 00:55:08.420
and I said, the lawyer. I said, you know, can

00:55:08.420 --> 00:55:09.860
they do that? They said, we're going to commit

00:55:09.860 --> 00:55:12.159
you for three days if you don't shut up. Oh,

00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:14.179
yeah. And I turned to him and I said, can they

00:55:14.179 --> 00:55:17.260
do that? And they said, yes, but I'm here to

00:55:17.260 --> 00:55:19.579
get your girlfriend out. And if they get you

00:55:19.579 --> 00:55:22.079
in, I can't do that. That I can only do one of

00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:25.599
you. Wow. I pulled a lot of strings to get her

00:55:25.599 --> 00:55:29.320
out of here. Yeah. Oh, if you you're in, I pulled

00:55:29.320 --> 00:55:32.260
all the strings. I can, man. Yeah. So shut the

00:55:32.260 --> 00:55:36.360
fuck up. I mean, say fuck. But when he said shut

00:55:36.360 --> 00:55:40.900
up. So I did. So that's what I was going through.

00:55:41.079 --> 00:55:46.449
I mean, Texas and and Joe. Whoever Joe Rogan,

00:55:47.030 --> 00:55:51.250
you know, you just and that's what comes up You

00:55:51.250 --> 00:55:54.630
mentioned those two things and and I just spewed

00:55:54.630 --> 00:55:56.730
out what came up what you mentioned their names

00:55:56.730 --> 00:55:59.469
Well, that's totally intense man. I mean they're

00:55:59.469 --> 00:56:02.150
really like throwing the book at you there like

00:56:02.150 --> 00:56:07.530
yes, yes, yeah So I flew her, you know, we flew

00:56:07.530 --> 00:56:12.369
back to California, but she was done man I mean

00:56:12.369 --> 00:56:16.190
the things that you know She couldn't talk and

00:56:16.190 --> 00:56:19.449
I was taking care of her daughter a little four

00:56:19.449 --> 00:56:22.909
year old So all she kept on saying is I want

00:56:22.909 --> 00:56:25.289
to I want to see my daughter. I want to see my

00:56:25.289 --> 00:56:28.070
daughter I mean she had that much but she was

00:56:28.070 --> 00:56:32.530
out of it. She was out of it for Two two days

00:56:32.530 --> 00:56:34.610
when I finally got her back to California and

00:56:34.610 --> 00:56:36.630
her daughter. I think her daughter brought her

00:56:36.630 --> 00:56:41.309
back, you know But but then she disappeared she

00:56:41.309 --> 00:56:45.099
disappeared a week later The same thing I mean

00:56:45.099 --> 00:56:49.679
that now she was really I don't know what they

00:56:49.679 --> 00:56:54.980
did to her or was the drugs or the the experience

00:56:54.980 --> 00:57:00.820
or whatever But she was not the same You know,

00:57:00.820 --> 00:57:03.659
maybe she was going there and we didn't know

00:57:03.659 --> 00:57:06.300
it and then when she you know went on the trip

00:57:06.300 --> 00:57:10.960
Yeah, the people it made it come out more. Yeah

00:57:11.260 --> 00:57:13.340
Maybe the asylum had nothing to do with it. I

00:57:13.340 --> 00:57:18.179
don't know. But, uh, yeah, she was, she, uh,

00:57:18.400 --> 00:57:20.880
her parents had to come and get her. It's just

00:57:20.880 --> 00:57:23.159
the timing is suspect because she was in the

00:57:23.159 --> 00:57:25.440
insane asylum, but, uh, you made a good point

00:57:25.440 --> 00:57:27.460
with that. Some psychedelics people are, some

00:57:27.460 --> 00:57:30.000
people are not meant to do. Maybe. Yeah. That

00:57:30.000 --> 00:57:32.539
isn't, but I think for a lot of people, they're

00:57:32.539 --> 00:57:35.139
good and therapeutic, but some people you got

00:57:35.139 --> 00:57:38.019
to kind of, you know, know, I got a question

00:57:38.019 --> 00:57:41.289
for you, Larry. Yeah. I just gotta say years

00:57:41.289 --> 00:57:44.250
later, she turned out okay. Oh cool. It took

00:57:44.250 --> 00:57:46.869
years, but she was fine. Okay, go ahead. It was

00:57:46.869 --> 00:57:48.750
Catherine O 'Hara. She started with you in Home

00:57:48.750 --> 00:57:55.530
Alone after that, right? Yeah. Yeah. But yeah,

00:57:55.590 --> 00:57:59.369
so I think that with that, you seem like a proponent

00:57:59.369 --> 00:58:02.750
of the 60s and 70s. Was it a freer time back

00:58:02.750 --> 00:58:06.050
then? Was it? No, it was just the same as today.

00:58:06.829 --> 00:58:13.070
It was just... You know, this is Trump on steroids

00:58:13.070 --> 00:58:16.969
now. But it was, you know, you can't say fuck

00:58:16.969 --> 00:58:19.610
on stage. I was busted by the police. People

00:58:19.610 --> 00:58:22.409
coming at me with beer bottles. They kidnapped

00:58:22.409 --> 00:58:24.590
my girlfriend, took her and put her in an insane

00:58:24.590 --> 00:58:27.869
asylum. I mean, come on, man. That was the 60s.

00:58:28.090 --> 00:58:31.510
That was like the late 60s. I mean, plus Kent,

00:58:31.809 --> 00:58:35.510
they shot four students at Kent University. Come

00:58:35.510 --> 00:58:38.869
on. I mean, that's, I'm seeing that now. Yeah.

00:58:39.250 --> 00:58:42.449
And I'm seeing it coming now. Right. I've been

00:58:42.449 --> 00:58:46.110
through it. This is a repeat. This is streaming

00:58:46.110 --> 00:58:50.809
point two. Not learning from our past. Yeah.

00:58:51.190 --> 00:58:52.969
I mean, it's going to get worse. You know, that

00:58:52.969 --> 00:58:57.469
was just practice and Trump's first term. Talk

00:58:57.469 --> 00:59:00.329
about the vision from, you know, people don't

00:59:00.329 --> 00:59:03.429
look at Trump's policies or how he ran up. They

00:59:03.429 --> 00:59:05.750
just look at the way the country was divided.

00:59:06.170 --> 00:59:09.690
At the time the political climate was just insane

00:59:09.690 --> 00:59:12.789
from the left and the right. I've never You know,

00:59:12.789 --> 00:59:15.349
not everything is so black and white. I'm not

00:59:15.349 --> 00:59:18.710
all right. I'm not all left I'm kind of as the

00:59:18.710 --> 00:59:22.489
situation happens, but I guess during his first

00:59:22.489 --> 00:59:25.650
four years it was like real polarizing for the

00:59:25.650 --> 00:59:31.949
left to See some my point is is is there's crazy

00:59:31.949 --> 00:59:34.250
crazy right wingers out there like I don't even

00:59:34.250 --> 00:59:36.420
think Trump is on that boat. Like, there's some

00:59:36.420 --> 00:59:39.719
people so far, right, that it's like, you know,

00:59:40.099 --> 00:59:42.559
if they get some of his base to go along with

00:59:42.559 --> 00:59:44.960
what they're thinking, it could be a scary, scary

00:59:44.960 --> 00:59:48.780
time because people are looking for change now.

00:59:48.920 --> 00:59:51.219
They're looking for something. They're scared.

00:59:51.699 --> 00:59:53.360
You're not looking for anything. They're scared.

00:59:53.539 --> 00:59:56.340
They're looking for surcease. They're scared.

00:59:56.659 --> 00:59:59.420
People are scared. I was talking to a group of

00:59:59.420 --> 01:00:03.880
right -wingers yesterday. And I just had a laugh,

01:00:04.059 --> 01:00:09.039
man. You can't talk to them. You can't, you know,

01:00:09.219 --> 01:00:13.139
I mean, another guy. But it's the same on our

01:00:13.139 --> 01:00:15.699
side. I was sitting in an outdoor restaurant.

01:00:16.300 --> 01:00:20.719
There was three of them, three Trumpers. And

01:00:20.719 --> 01:00:24.699
I guess talking very loud, it was me against

01:00:24.699 --> 01:00:27.239
the three, but I was just laughing because they

01:00:27.239 --> 01:00:30.360
were so entrenched that I saw there was nothing

01:00:30.360 --> 01:00:34.179
I could say. Yeah, I mean there's nothing there's

01:00:34.179 --> 01:00:37.199
no argument that I could put out because they

01:00:37.199 --> 01:00:40.000
just poo poo any argument they poo poo the truth

01:00:40.000 --> 01:00:43.880
and others if you're telling them the truth Then

01:00:43.880 --> 01:00:50.199
that to them is hearsay. Yeah truth is hearsay

01:00:50.199 --> 01:00:56.380
So I saw another guy about four tables away looking

01:00:56.380 --> 01:00:59.500
at me and saying you know, and rapping and giving

01:00:59.500 --> 01:01:01.400
me the okay sign, like, you're right, you're

01:01:01.400 --> 01:01:04.219
right, I'm with you. And then he started to get

01:01:04.219 --> 01:01:07.780
up and come over to me to help defend me against

01:01:07.780 --> 01:01:10.860
these three guys. But I didn't want to be defended.

01:01:11.039 --> 01:01:14.619
I wasn't trying to defend myself. I was instigating

01:01:14.619 --> 01:01:18.599
them to see where their heads were at. I wasn't

01:01:18.599 --> 01:01:21.960
defending my side. I was just saying, you know,

01:01:22.179 --> 01:01:25.159
well, tell me more about, you know, and so when

01:01:25.159 --> 01:01:28.969
he came over, he started to defend with me. And

01:01:28.969 --> 01:01:31.309
I said, get out of here, man. You don't have

01:01:31.309 --> 01:01:33.690
no idea what you're talking about. Right. And

01:01:33.690 --> 01:01:36.969
he was on my side. Yeah. I was telling him, you

01:01:36.969 --> 01:01:39.610
have no idea what I was doing or what was going

01:01:39.610 --> 01:01:44.610
on. He was just being, you know, like, I don't

01:01:44.610 --> 01:01:47.730
know what it's called. You were on the left and

01:01:47.730 --> 01:01:50.550
he was like, let me come to his rescue. Yeah,

01:01:50.590 --> 01:01:53.250
but he wasn't coming to my rescue. He was just

01:01:53.250 --> 01:01:59.010
reacting. Right. He was he was reacting not not

01:01:59.010 --> 01:02:01.409
thinking. Larry, here's the one I want to say.

01:02:01.710 --> 01:02:04.750
I think that I think that we are so polarized

01:02:04.750 --> 01:02:07.829
left and right. It's just crazy. I feel there's

01:02:07.829 --> 01:02:10.590
so many more of us that are in the middle. And

01:02:10.590 --> 01:02:13.409
if we had these types of conversations, these

01:02:13.409 --> 01:02:16.369
long form conversations, a lot more stuff could

01:02:16.369 --> 01:02:19.070
be discussed. A lot more stuff could be exposed.

01:02:19.349 --> 01:02:21.949
Yeah. I think we realized we're all very, very

01:02:21.949 --> 01:02:24.969
similar. But these politics got us thinking like

01:02:24.969 --> 01:02:27.710
we're so divided. And really we should just be

01:02:27.710 --> 01:02:31.090
talking about everything is politics now yeah

01:02:31.090 --> 01:02:36.050
everything i mean glazed donuts i could you know

01:02:36.050 --> 01:02:39.210
i i could go back to that time and do it all

01:02:39.210 --> 01:02:43.050
over again but now bring trump into it and i

01:02:43.050 --> 01:02:47.449
could do it you know what i mean is 300 donuts

01:02:47.929 --> 01:02:49.750
You know, that's a waste of money. Like, you

01:02:49.750 --> 01:02:52.130
know, blah, blah, blah, government. Boom, boom,

01:02:52.329 --> 01:02:55.090
you know. Was President Kennedy hated as much

01:02:55.090 --> 01:02:56.969
as President Trump? Do you remember? Nothing

01:02:56.969 --> 01:02:59.510
to do with anything. You know, this has nothing

01:02:59.510 --> 01:03:01.630
to do with Trump. It's just people are scared.

01:03:01.909 --> 01:03:03.829
People are scared then. People are scared now.

01:03:04.110 --> 01:03:06.570
It has nothing to do with person. It has nothing

01:03:06.570 --> 01:03:12.590
to do with reality. Kennedy, Trump, Biden, politics,

01:03:13.670 --> 01:03:20.110
war, peace, land. mercury, you know, forests,

01:03:20.889 --> 01:03:25.389
global warming. It's just people are scared.

01:03:26.050 --> 01:03:32.030
You can hop on any train and you can argue. It's

01:03:32.030 --> 01:03:33.730
just people are scared and they don't know what

01:03:33.730 --> 01:03:36.349
to talk about or how to defend it because it's

01:03:36.349 --> 01:03:43.530
in the air. It's just a weird time that we're

01:03:43.530 --> 01:03:46.579
going to have to either get through or not. I

01:03:46.579 --> 01:03:51.039
mean, this train has left the station. Wherever

01:03:51.039 --> 01:03:53.480
we're going, it's going there, and there's no

01:03:53.480 --> 01:03:57.340
stopping it. We'll either stop it because it's

01:03:57.340 --> 01:03:59.719
in the cards already, or we won't stop it because

01:03:59.719 --> 01:04:02.699
it's in the cards already. But these arguments

01:04:02.699 --> 01:04:05.820
are stupid, man. I mean, I call them aprons.

01:04:06.840 --> 01:04:12.760
You see these anthropological, what was it like

01:04:12.760 --> 01:04:17.639
in caveman times? Homo erectus and chromagnin.

01:04:17.760 --> 01:04:21.539
You said Homo and erectus. I love it. Yeah. Homo

01:04:21.539 --> 01:04:24.000
erectus. Yeah, that's us. No, no, we're Homo

01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:30.380
sapiens. Yeah. But, but yeah. But back then,

01:04:31.059 --> 01:04:35.400
that's what my book is about. I don't, I, it's

01:04:35.400 --> 01:04:39.820
about homelessness. But it's not, but I just

01:04:39.820 --> 01:04:44.400
take one guy. I lived in my car for a year. So

01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:48.960
I know about that. So I take one guy and I follow

01:04:48.960 --> 01:04:57.239
him for one year. Oh, wow. Homeless. But it has

01:04:57.239 --> 01:05:00.400
nothing to do really with homelessness. What

01:05:00.400 --> 01:05:04.059
my point of the book is, I don't say, I don't

01:05:04.059 --> 01:05:07.659
call people, I mentioned people maybe once or

01:05:07.659 --> 01:05:10.760
twice, but I don't say people. I don't say human

01:05:10.760 --> 01:05:18.329
beings. I say homo sapiens Whenever I refer to

01:05:18.329 --> 01:05:22.309
anybody in a group more than more than two people.

01:05:22.429 --> 01:05:26.530
Yeah, I See homo sapiens because that's all we

01:05:26.530 --> 01:05:31.030
are right. I mean and so this the global warming

01:05:31.030 --> 01:05:36.789
is that this this planet shouting yeah at homo

01:05:36.789 --> 01:05:41.530
sapiens Hey, man, you're all homo sapiens, right?

01:05:41.630 --> 01:05:44.789
You're fucking with me Right. And I'm going to

01:05:44.789 --> 01:05:48.010
fuck you 10 times worse. You all breathe the

01:05:48.010 --> 01:05:51.010
same air. You breathe the same air that you're

01:05:51.010 --> 01:05:53.570
poisoning. You drink the same water that you're

01:05:53.570 --> 01:05:57.570
poisoning. You're growing crops in the same soil

01:05:57.570 --> 01:06:00.030
you're poisoning. And you're fucking with the

01:06:00.030 --> 01:06:04.710
thermostat, which is, you know, that's, that's

01:06:04.710 --> 01:06:08.409
ape stuff, man. You know, in the old days, there

01:06:08.409 --> 01:06:12.019
were these ape raids. where gorillas and apes

01:06:12.019 --> 01:06:15.219
would, you know, charge other ape things. Yeah.

01:06:15.280 --> 01:06:17.280
Well, that's what we're doing. We haven't changed.

01:06:17.519 --> 01:06:20.699
We just have clothes on now. Right. And less

01:06:20.699 --> 01:06:24.260
hair. But these are ape raids. Yeah. You know,

01:06:24.460 --> 01:06:29.519
Israelis, Palestinians, Hamas, Palestine, you

01:06:29.519 --> 01:06:35.739
know, Arabs, Jews, Catholics, the Bible, man.

01:06:36.059 --> 01:06:38.440
It's just a self help book. I mean, don't get

01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:42.599
me started. Harry, now that I got you started,

01:06:42.860 --> 01:06:44.980
our show is coming to an end, so I want you to

01:06:44.980 --> 01:06:47.079
tell the audience where they could find all your

01:06:47.079 --> 01:06:50.460
books. We mentioned TheRealLarryHankin .com for

01:06:50.460 --> 01:06:52.480
artwork and some of his other stuff, but tell

01:06:52.480 --> 01:06:53.800
them where they can catch you on social media.

01:06:56.579 --> 01:07:01.480
Well, TheRealLarryHankin .com, Amazon, probably,

01:07:01.579 --> 01:07:04.760
but they have two books on Amazon. One is a fiction,

01:07:05.019 --> 01:07:08.969
one is a memoir. One is called That Guy. And

01:07:08.969 --> 01:07:11.090
that's a great Christmas present. And the other

01:07:11.090 --> 01:07:15.309
one is just a bunch of stories that I wrote called

01:07:15.309 --> 01:07:20.349
the Lupo's dossier. Yeah. I'm kind of a bad title

01:07:20.349 --> 01:07:23.150
and kind of hard to remember. But a Lupo Lupo

01:07:23.150 --> 01:07:28.110
dossier and that guy. Great stocking stuffer.

01:07:28.190 --> 01:07:30.409
So if you want to go to Amazon, that guy fit

01:07:30.409 --> 01:07:32.630
perfectly in the stocking. It's great. Yeah.

01:07:35.349 --> 01:07:38.840
Fireplace. Larry, we always love having you on.

01:07:38.920 --> 01:07:40.539
We would have went longer. We just had a hard

01:07:40.539 --> 01:07:43.059
out at 210. So that's why we needed to end it

01:07:43.059 --> 01:07:46.460
there. But where are you on Instagram? Is it

01:07:46.460 --> 01:07:49.500
the same thing? I'm not on anything. I when I

01:07:49.500 --> 01:07:52.079
drop out, I drop out. Gotcha. So I'm trying to

01:07:52.079 --> 01:07:55.719
drop in with it with Brooks now. And the art

01:07:55.719 --> 01:07:59.699
that was another chapter back back in the day.

01:08:00.280 --> 01:08:03.340
But they're on on the real Larry Hankin dot com

01:08:03.340 --> 01:08:07.780
or Amazon also. I'm glad you're exploring your

01:08:07.780 --> 01:08:10.619
other creative side, not just, you know, Hollywood

01:08:10.619 --> 01:08:12.239
enacting, but you're doing the books, you're

01:08:12.239 --> 01:08:14.500
doing, or we're doing the painting. You're an

01:08:14.500 --> 01:08:16.359
exciting guy, man. We'll definitely love to have

01:08:16.359 --> 01:08:18.539
you back on. We were just getting into a role,

01:08:18.920 --> 01:08:20.960
but we'll have you on again. And we always leave.

01:08:21.020 --> 01:08:23.319

01:08:33.850 --> 01:08:36.750
but Chad and I have a hard outs in about a minute

01:08:36.750 --> 01:08:41.270
So remember hashtag Chad Gracie hates hashtags

01:08:41.270 --> 01:08:47.489

got to get out of here. I love it. OK, Larry.

01:09:06.770 --> 01:09:09.550
The one and only Larry Hanken. It doesn't get

01:09:09.550 --> 01:09:12.489
much better than that. Larry's a great guy. He's

01:09:12.489 --> 01:09:15.890
been in everything under the sun. He was amazing

01:09:15.890 --> 01:09:19.810
as a Kramer on Seinfeld. He was so much we could

01:09:19.810 --> 01:09:21.850
have asked. I wanted to ask about escape from

01:09:21.850 --> 01:09:24.329
Alcatraz. Especially since he started talking

01:09:24.329 --> 01:09:27.689
about his girlfriend in the asylum. So anyway,

01:09:27.890 --> 01:09:29.789
next time. Yes, we'll have him back for sure.

01:09:30.409 --> 01:09:32.630
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you guys so much.

01:09:32.890 --> 01:09:34.310
