Germanic guy from the late 19th century. who had you immediately said this you. laid it out immediately and I knew. exactly what it was but you just came up. to me and you you uh you'll remember. what it was I think but a guy from the. late 19th century in Germany who had. fought me in a duel over a woman and. lost but now you're putting a brave face. on and you and your arm doesn't work. because of the dueling and you walk up. to me and you were you were.

tecco6 America's number one meal kit he. laughs so hard at stuff also when have. you noticed that when Larry laughs his. jaw goes like a skeleton. like it's is it like if you just started. yanking on the court of a ventriloquist. dummy up and. down that's his laugh and it's kind of. crazy but because his character is such. a crank you don't get to see him lose. it but I an experience where Dana Carvey.
famously does this thing that I. absolutely love we both are obsessed. with we're both obsessed with it uh and. and and he's done it here I believe. where he uh he's Jimmy Stewart and he's. in a car with Katherine heer and he's. trying to talk her uh into uh pluring. him and um but he also has very specific. needs about you know how it should how I. want you to act surprised when I take it. out but not too surprised and he's very. bossy about it and it's you're crying.
when you hear it so Larry I'm talking to. Larry and I do it for him I said this is. Dana's thing and I do it for him and he. was laughing as hard as I've seen him. laugh to die cuz his his jaw was and so. then I see him a couple of days later I. run into him and he went oh my God I I. was at this party and uh Bill hater did. Dana's thing and it's the hardest I've. laughed and I said you Larry that. wasn't a party that was my party and I.
yeah yeah I was doing it for you and he. was like well it seemed like hater it. was really funny no he no I think what. happened was also is that you do the. Jimmy Stewart thing and the thing I do. of Dana's which again is a Dana bit Yeah. is the B Bert Lancaster and Kirk Douglas. having sex and that's what I was. doing and so when I would do that which. again is Dana's bit we're all doing. Dana's bit all doing Dana's bit but when. Dana did that for me once and I I fell.
on the ground I was yeah well just a. couple of fellas. yeah you know please just a little more. please like don't worry now yeah and I. like I want you to take it. slow I want you and then the line that I. always remember was don't Buck around. now I don't have a lot of play down.
there and he it is an old in a Carvey. bit but when he he did that I just when. he came he hosted when I was a cast. member at SNL and when he hosted it did. become a thing where I would just ask. him well could you do this or you could. I mean I was just following him around. like yeah a puppy dog I was doing all. the stuff that you know asking asking. about you know Phil Harman story and you.
know everything you know that was the. thing well he is um fortunately that. that nice combo of one of the funniest. people ever and also incredibly nice. unbelievably and kind and uh probably to. a fault people pleaser but yeah we took. Dana out to uh lunch we were here at the. studios and then we went we did. something and then we went next door to. get lunch and a couple of writers came. along he put on a a show for the writers. and it very naturally but just was going.
through all kinds of stuff and and he. was doing U Henry Fonda oh and uh it was. so funny and afterwards the writers were. thinking you know there's that Dynamic. that you hear about where the comedian. is funny on stage but then if you see. them off stage they're quite they can be. quite D and um you see that a bunch of. times and then there are these people. that just nope you can sit next to them. on an airplane.
and uh my wife and I once got on an. airplane and someone behind us was like. kind of heckling me and talking about. they'll let the Irish on this plane and. I guess they'll let any scum what I what. what airline was it Air Lingus that was. the part that shocked me yeah to this. Airline it's like welcome to the. aine but it was um sitting right behind. us was Don Rickles oh my God and Don. Rickles was and then the whole flight. like cross country was Don Rickles just.
peppering me with insults but then. telling great Show Business stories and. it was one of the highlights of my life. you know oh man I still I watch his. stuff on YouTube all the time him on. Carson him on all that stuff I mean his. did you ever see the one where he's on. Letterman with uh Denzel Washington next. to him oh my god do yourself a favor. it's so just that that he was that age I. mean he was really old and and when he'. be on your show I mean it was hilarious. you're so fast fast so insanely fast.
also he had this knowledge of you know. we all know there's this like weird line. between music and comedy where somehow. they're just things that sound funny and. they work and you don't know why and one. of the things he discovered was someone. would say something he be like that's. right you know like almost as as if to. say you know what do you want a clap on. the back and you say what do you want a. cookie yeah what do you want a cookie he. said David Letterman goes uh uh Frank. s's wife's name is Barbara and.
your your wife's name's Barbara right. and he goes what are you a. detective he goes what kind of what's up. with these what kind of question is. that he goes off on that question and. just zeros in on it he's like you make a. billion dollars a year and you asked the. most stupid question and I it's the best. drop your pants and fire a rocket oh my. God if you can find him with dick Cavit. in the early 70s It's really because. Dick cit's trying to give it to him like. like oh I I like your act but I always.
did like Jackie Leonard you know what I. mean and he's like all right you know. yeah oh you really want to a karate. fight it's like Bruce Lee it's like all. right cool and then it's fascinating to. watch if it's on YouTube it's really. interesting where you could just tell he. has zero zero respect for him.
