Kevin Nealon Returns (FULL EPISODE) | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend
[music] Hi, my name is Kevin Elen and I. feel nothing about being Conan O'Brien's. friend. You feel nothing. Nothing at. all. I'm dead inside. [music]. >> Hey everybody and welcome to Conan. O'Brien Needs a Friend. Joined as always. by Sonum Obsessian. >> Yes. >> And uh Matt Gorley. Hello. Um, we were. just talking about this a second ago and. I thought it was worth turning on those. mics and having this conversation. It's.
occurred to me a bunch that if I was. turned out into the real workforce now. >> as I am uh. with my whatever I'm going to call them. skills just to be generous to myself. I. would not be able to get any job. And I. do think. >> No, I'm being serious here. I don't. Yeah. Yeah. If you could wave a magic. wand and people, first of all, if they. didn't know who I was, that might be an. advantage. But, uh, if if I was thrown.
out into the world and I don't have the. ability to go, hey, maybe you've seen. some of my videos on YouTube or. whatever. You watched me in the old. days. Come on, let me work here at this. bar. If I didn't if I didn't have that. to work with and I just had to go by my. skills, I think I would starve to death. And I'm wondering I mean. >> history teacher I think you know you. could do you could be a. >> but they have to know I don't have a I'm. not disciplined about it. I like to read. all that stuff and I have a lot of weird. knowledge but I can't teach a class and.
I shouldn't teach a class. Um. >> you give everyone A's. You'd just feel. bad. I feel like. >> if you read it you'd be like oh they. tried. >> I said if if a kid was really dumb I'd. really go after him. I try and I mean. after school I'd like follow him and. [laughter] then. >> Okay. Oh yeah, I thought you meant. [clears throat]. >> like I'm going to kill you. That kind of. I'll get you. I'll kill you. I'd put a. bag over my head, [laughter]. you know, to get you. >> You think Mr. O'Brien, why you have that. bag on your head? [laughter].
>> It's so. >> And then I forget that. Oh, the. McDonald's wrote my name on the bag as. they [laughter] did. >> You think that's the only thing that. would conceal you is a bag? Yeah, I'd. have a bag on my head, but I'd be. wearing a original Late Night with Con. O'Brien [laughter] shirt. >> and I'd have written on it, "This is. mine because I'm the host. >> in indelible ink." [laughter]. >> Before you Mr. O'Brien, why do you have. that on your head? >> Um, before you were known, did you have. any like entry- level regular jobs that. weren't in the industry or anything like.
that? >> Uh, well, I, as we know, I worked at. Wilson's House of Suede and Leather. I. was a camp counselor. You can go back. Um I I mean a lot a lot of my stuff was. not I don't have real skills in the. world and this. >> this is a problem and and I look I'm. going to say that about myself but I'm. questioning like Sona. >> yeah I think of you when I when I met. you you were a very hardworking. efficient uh knowledgeable person I'm.
being serious why you laughing I know. where this is going. No, but listen. But. then I saw you rot so quickly. [laughter]. >> This is where I. >> I mean, seriously, rot just fall apart. because suddenly, oh, there's lots of. free white wine around at at in network. events and and suddenly you're just. getting paid to be on camera and tell me. to off. What I'm saying is. >> or true. Could you. >> Well, let's say we and and what I'm. doing for with this exercise is saying.
you cannot you cannot go into. entertainment or anything like that. You. have to get a job where they don't know. who you are. You can't trade on the fact. that you might be a known person. And. for you, you can't do anything podcast. related. Thank God. >> What would you do? >> I I actually think about this. >> Okay. >> Um. >> you should by the way. [laughter]. >> Wait, there's a reason you're bringing. this up. So, the fact that you took no. responsibility in what happened to me. and how I've devolved as a person, you. are a circus clown. And so, no part of.
my job is ever serious. And I realized. early on my job was to be fodder for. your bits. And so, everything else just. fell by the wayside. So, it's your. fault. >> So, it's my fault. Okay. >> Yeah. >> So, >> you know what this feels like? >> I think I have contributed. No doubt I. have contributed. >> You're right. The wine helped. You. always have to see your own hand in. things. Yes. And you rotted so quickly. >> I did. [laughter]. >> Guys, guys, guys, hold on. Hold on a. second. >> What? >> Let's continue this discussion cuz I.
want real answers later uh in this uh in. this presentation. What do you think? >> Okay. I think that's a great idea. So, to be continued for the segment at the. end of this episode. >> Yeah. >> All right. Sounds good. [music]. I met you in uh the beginning of 1988. Uh I was in the writer room at Saturday. Night Live and uh you walked in with. Dana and I was very excited to meet you.
>> I feel like I have Alzheimer's. You're. trying to remind me of what happened. >> Your name was Kevin Nean and you're a. comedian. >> at the time and then you got out of. that. >> I did. >> You're more into real estate now. >> No, >> I am thrilled. No. >> Well, it's real estate. It's very. lucrative. >> I don't know when he's kidding or not. [laughter]. >> I am thrilled that you're here. And for. you to say you feel nothing after all. these years of us being very close. Very. close. >> I'll tell you why I said that. Because. I've felt everything already and there's. nothing more to feel about you.
>> Hate, anger, [laughter] jealousy, all of that. >> Um. >> I'm determined today to keep this thing. running smooth. >> [laughter]. >> In the past have some kind of in the. past we've had difficulties. Um you and. I are not real people and when we. encounter each other it's like two AI. chipmunks having it out. >> When you mean you. >> No, no, no. You two you know that you. have a problem. You don't look me in the. eye. >> I've been constantly looking at your. eye. [laughter].
>> Just one eye. >> Two of them. That's the problem. You. just look at one eye. >> I don't want to look at the other eye. >> Uh [laughter]. >> it's not a good eye. You know that. Um, thrilled you're here. Thrilled. you're here. And you were just down the. street. I wasn't able to join you. You. kindly invited me. And you were you were. sitting with some heavy hitters. And of. course, >> I always sit with heavy hitters. >> Yeah. Um, >> normally when I do a podcast, I get. together with the host beforehand and. kind of, you know, break bread and we. kind of talk about what we're going to. talk about. But. >> I didn't a lot of prep on this.
>> I didn't want to do that. No. No. We're. going in as we always do. >> Hot. >> Uh, hot. We're coming in hot. Coming in. hot. >> How are you? You're on the road a lot. I. know you're constantly on the go. Um, you have a new special coming out. I. mean, this is these are exciting times. >> These are really exciting times. I got a. lot of things I want to talk about here. So, when you're done footing. around, let's get down [laughter] to it. >> Just a little more pussyooting. >> Uh, no, things are going well. I I am. very busy. I'm doing a lot of standup.
comedy. Um, and I'm really at the top, as Gary Shanley used to say, Kevin, you're at the top of your game. >> Yeah. Well, you are. I've never seen you. not be at the top of your game. I know. you're you're. >> We're talking about pickle ball, right? >> No, [laughter] no. We're not doing that. We're not doing Let's not do that. You. disarmed my I was going to seriously say. I I think you're uh one of the best. stand-up comedians I know consistently. for for many many many years. I've never. seen you not be at the top of your game. Uh you're just uh you're a winner and if. you were a hot dog, you'd be a wiener.
This is why I'm this is why I'm at the. bottom of your game. >> At the bottom of [laughter] my game. That reminded me of a really funny. cartoon I saw once is a hot dog opening. his mail and it said uh he's at the you. know little mailbox and it. >> by the way I love food jokes [laughter]. and the caption is you may already be a. wiener and that's such a good one. I. love that. That's a good one. >> That's a good one. I like that one. >> All right. [laughter] Uh oh. >> Glass of water. >> So um what's going on? Stop. >> How are you buddy? >> I'm doing great. How many times you. going to ask me that? [laughter].
>> How are you? >> I'm doing really well. How you doing? >> Like you know we come right out of the. gate. I do have a special coming up. It's called Loosen the Crotch. >> Loosen the crotch. Now, can you tell us. what that's all about? >> Uh, >> the title the title I will give you. >> I know it's probably material you don't. want to waste here because special if. you want right now. I have it memorized. >> I prefer that. >> Um, loosen the crotch comes from um a. cat I used to have named Pierre. >> And I love this cat so much. And I'm not. a cat person. You know what I mean? I. don't like cats to be honest with you, right? >> I wish them well. Success, but.
[laughter] I'm not a cat person. >> What kind of success do you want? any. kind of cat success. >> Yeah, I got it. Yeah. [laughter] In the. cat tree one day cat tree maybe, >> you know, produce some good hair balls, you know, something that's good. >> Yeah. >> Um, so this cat was amazing. He was just. so friendly and um and I I just I loved. him. I loved him. This is 10 years ago. he passed away. >> Mhm. >> And I had a pair of jeans at the same. time. And these jeans were like the. perfect fitting jeans. You know how you. get a pair of jeans once in a lifetime.
and you just love them? >> It's that magical pair. It's that. magical pair. I know it's hard for you. cuz you have long legs like me. Like me. And so I found these jeans that were. snug in the hips, um, tighten the butt. and loosen the crotch most of the time. >> Mhm. >> Uh, that's where the loosen the crotch. comes from. >> Most of the time. You mean if you became. aroused, they weren't loose anymore. >> Well, no, [laughter] I didn't say that. I said if you put them in the hot dryer, you know, I don't know where your mind's. going, [laughter]. >> but can I finish? May I finish? >> I know exactly where my mind went, but.
yeah. Go ahead. So, uh, he loved those. jeans. Whenever I sat down, he would. jump up in those jeans. He wouldn't get. off. And so, when he died, I thought it. might be nice to wrap him up in those. jeans and bury him. It make me feel good. at least, you know. >> Um, but that cat, you never met Pierre? >> I don't think so. >> No, he was the best. 10 years ago, >> I still miss him. >> Yeah. >> But not as much as those jeans. [laughter]. >> So, you miss the jeans more than Pierre? >> Yeah. >> Do you And you regret rapping Pierre in. those jeans? >> Big time. I regret it big [laughter].
time. If I could do it again, I would. not. >> Quick question. Quick question. Yeah. Where you from? >> Where is he buried? [gasps]. >> Oh, he's buried in Arlington. [laughter]. >> Wow. >> Yeah. >> Did buried with full military honors, [laughter]. >> of course. >> Did I'm guessing the cat must have. served. >> Um, >> in what theater? [laughter]. >> Afghanistan. >> No. Cinniplex. But no, he he he's done. everything this cat. Uh, in fact, [clears throat] that's how he died. >> What do you mean? >> He was on a special mission. Okay, I.
[laughter] see. That's Yeah. >> So, died in the line of duty, uh, buried. with full military honors, wrapped in. your jeans at Arlington. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Incredible. This is an incredible story. >> And, you know, my wife was telling me a. couple of years ago that I was u jeans. were looking a little tight on me. I. said, I've been wearing the same jeans. for 30 years. She goes, "Well, you. believe what you want to believe." So, you could prove a point. So, I dug up my. cat, Pierre, and I unraveled those jeans. from him. Cat hair everywhere. I tried. those jeans on, and guess what? >> What? Little tight. [laughter].
>> That's the big cat. That's the big Oh, Henry ending. Little tight. [laughter]. >> Just a little tight. Dro a little bit. >> That cat though lost so much weight. Conan, [laughter] good for him. I got a. healthy amount of weight. >> Yeah, that happens when you. >> Not an unhealthy. >> decay, of course. Um, so yeah, it's. called Loose in the Crotch. >> Okay. >> And it's going to be on YouTube January. 27th. It's premiering on uh the 800 lb. gorilla platform. >> Very good. >> You're not writing that down. >> I don't have to. It's all right here. >> To remember for you.
>> YouTube, the 800 pound gorilla platform. I listen to everything you say. >> What's the date? >> You said March 11th. >> Oh, [laughter]. >> January 27th. What's the name of my cat? >> Wait, say it slowly. January. You just. said January. >> January 27th. If you're going to make. sure that you get the plug in, make sure. you do it correctly. The cat's name is. Pierre. Buried full military honors. >> I think we're done. >> No, we're done. We're going to keep. going. [laughter] I did not despair. >> Um, yes. January 27th. >> Okay. >> Um and it um it's going to be on YouTube.
on the 800 lb gorilla platform. >> Okay. Yeah. You're just repeating. yourself now. >> Now, let me What was the name of my cat? >> Pierre. >> and. >> uh buried in. >> and he was a nice cat. >> Yeah. Listen, Kevin. [laughter]. >> I just want to have a conversation with. you once in your life. >> You don't want a conversation with me. You and I, even when we get together, just the two of us, there's no. microphones. There's no Sona laughing. There's no gory looking worried. Um, [laughter].
whenever we get together, just the two. of us, it's the same You and I. don't want to have a real conversation. I know I don't. It would terrify me. And. I don't think you do either. >> Here's uh something that I do. I don't. know if you do this as well, but you. said just the two of us. >> Iatically automatically think of the. song. >> Just the two of us. >> Just the two of us. No matter what you. say, >> we can make it if we try. Just the two. of us. >> I didn't know you couldn't sing. [laughter]. Come on, man. Let's just do this. [laughter].
>> What are you writing down over here? You. have a diary. >> I just wrote something off which was my. career. You took me out of the game. You. took me out of the game. You took me out. of the game. [laughter]. >> That was brutal. That was a brutal take. down. >> But the standup is going great. >> And uh a lot of. >> Let me ask you a question. I saw some. press recently. Um, you shut off your. big mouth. >> about going to the SNL 50th and you said. I blocked Conan O'Brien with Paul. McCartney and it got a lot of ink. I. mean, I saw this everywhere. And by.
everywhere, I saw it on one site and I'm. still looking, but it was everywhere. >> Have I been on the show since then? >> No. >> Okay. Can we talk about that? >> Yeah. So, [clears throat]. >> I still I still. >> Do you feel badly about it? >> Horrible. >> But you did it on purpose. I'm at the. Plaza Hotel. >> and there's McCartney. We've encountered. each other many times over the years. We. start having a nice chat, a really nice. chat, and then you come sailing in. uh and block me with Paul McCartney. You.
know, I'm a huge Beatles fan. Why'd you. do that? >> Well, let's back up a little bit. >> How far are we going? >> Down to the 60s. [laughter]. >> 1960s. Okay. >> I experienced that same thing. That's. why I felt horribly about it. I was. talking to people in the, you know, another day, another u the night before. and people just coming and interrupting. me like I was nothing and just taking. over the conversation. I'm just standing. there. So when I did that to you, it was. kind of like a revenge thing. [laughter].
>> A revenge but revenge, but not against. me cuz I hadn't done that to you. >> Yeah, but somebody's got to take it. You. know what I mean? >> Yeah. >> So anyway, um, >> did you have something good to talk to. McCarthy about? >> Nothing. But I used to we used to be. kind of friendly when I was on the show. and he was there. Mhm. >> Um because we're both kind of animal. activists and um and we talked a lot. about that and Linda McCartney sat at my. table when at that other uh reunion. >> and so you know we had a lot of. discussions and stuff. So I saw him I. go, "Oh, he's going to be happy to see. me." So I kind of come into the.
conversation with you guys and you. stepped back like you should have. >> Yeah, I'm nice that way. I created a. space for you which I now regret. I. regret it too cuz it made it look like. you got pushed out instead of staying. >> Also, I was at a great point in the. conversation. >> McCartney said to me, "I'm thinking of. putting another band together. Would you. like to be part of it?" And all I had to. do was say yes. And I was going to be. part of his next band. He said, "I think. it'll be the biggest one I've ever had.".
And I said, >> "Is it his ghost?" It was the ghost. [laughter] of McCartney's ghost. >> Yeah, it's the ghost of McCartney. And. he said, you know, [laughter] I'm going. to, you know, be three other ghosts that. visit you tonight, the other Beatles, and you better become a better person in. the morning and realize that you mean. you Christmas. >> But anyway, um, >> all right. So, let me continue. >> I'm going to do more of my bed. [laughter]. >> Okay. >> It's McCartney as one of the ghosts, and. the other ghosts are of course Lennin. and Ringoar. And then the twist is it's. not Harrison. >> Oh, >> yeah. Harry Bellfonte. Harry. >> Okay. Go ahead. [laughter].
>> So, you step back, all of a sudden it's. me and Paul now. I go, "Hey, Paul, how. you doing?" "You know, good." The ghost. had come back. Yeah. >> And uh and I really had nothing to say. about him. >> You had nothing. And I know that he's. standing there getting so much small. talk all night long. I'm surprised he's. out on the floor, but people are coming. up to him and I'm standing next to him. and uh I I'm sensing that he doesn't. remember who I was. Yeah. >> You know, and uh. >> he made a face at me like, "What do I. do?" [laughter]. >> That's what he did. And he said, "Get.
security.". >> Wait till you hear what he did. >> Okay. So I I say to him, "That was a. good choice of a song to do." Uh, Golden. Slumbers. Well, you know, Lone wanted me. to do it. Yeah. Oh, okay. Okay. But you. guys had other songs you could fall back. on, right? >> And nothing. Nothing. Kind of like now. crickets. [laughter]. It was my fault. And. >> if only he had one other hit, they could. have fall back on. Yeah. So anyway, shortly thereafter, and by the way, the whole time I'm. looking at his mouth thinking that's the. lips where Hey Jude, all those songs.
came out of, you know, and I'm kind of. looking at it and then I see the tongue. once in a while go that's the tongue. That's the tongue that pushed the the. music out. >> This was [laughter] such a This was a. >> I didn't say that to him. >> It was so creepy. >> Yeah. No, but he you I could see you. just staring into his mouth [laughter]. AND HE GUESS WHAT? HE COULD SEE IT, TOO. NO, NO, YOU were looking into his mouth. as he was talking. >> No, I look at the lips, the way they. formed the words. I said that was a word. he used in Hey Jude, you know, and and. then finally he goes to me. He said, uh,
oh, there's my there's my niece. Oh, nephew. He goes, let me introduce you to. my nephew. So, he brings me over to like. four tall guys, you know, like. executives they look like. Yeah. >> And he parks me there. He stands for. like three seconds, then he's gone. >> Yeah. >> He just did the handoff for me. And I. knew when he left, >> you know what that's called? That's. called the kneeling. [laughter] When. you're talking to someone you don't want. to talk to and you scrape them off your. shoe. That's what we call it because we. all do it to you [laughter] because you. look at our mouths when we're talking.
and it's creepy. None of us can take it. I've [laughter] scraped you off my shoe. many a time. I've said, "Hey, look. There's my niece and my nephew." And. then I walk over and it's a fire hydrant. and a letter box. And I just leave you. there. >> Hey, come on. Let's get off of this. whole thing. Let's talk serious for a. minute. Okay. >> Okay. It's seriously. But anyway, go. ahead. >> No, it's not. It's however you say it. Have you read textes lately? >> What? >> Texts? Have you read texts lately? Nobody uses pronunciation or. >> [laughter]. >> uh punctuation.
>> Okay. >> Do you know what I mean? Do you know how. they finish it? >> Oh, the smiley face emoji just came out. of your mouth. [laughter]. >> All right. So, um. >> what what happened? >> So, that's what happened with Paul. McCartney. >> Yeah. No, we still reeling. >> We understood that we moved on from. that. You didn't need to then say, "Oh, and by the way, that was the end of that. story." That's a sign that something's. not working out for you. >> Why are you so angry? >> I, [laughter]. you know, I'm gonna say something. Bill. Burr said this to you recently. >> I love Bill Bird who the comic.
>> He's a hilarious comic. He's a wonderful. fellow. >> Angry. >> Guess what he revealed about you. He. said, "Everyone thinks you're a nice. guy.". >> Really? >> But you're really pretty toxic. And you. are. There's a lot. >> Bill said that. >> Bill Burr said it about him. [laughter]. >> That's really saying something. >> You know what? You come across as this. beautiful, you know, delicious red. delicious apple, but there's little. razor blades in there with Kevin Neil. and jibs and jabs. You see it too, right? He knows how to dice and slice. with the best of them. There's some. anger coming out of you. I know there. is. >> I love how you end it with a sip of.
coffee. >> Yeah, >> if that's what that is. >> That's coffee. >> No, I appreciate I appreciate you. First. of all, let's go back recognizing that I. am a good comic. >> You're a great comic. >> And what's the greatest name special by. the way? >> Uh, your com It's called Loose in the. Crotch. Yeah. >> Your cat's name was Pierre. >> and it's going to be on YouTube and it's. coming out in. >> January. >> What? >> Well, that's where it gets interesting. [laughter]. >> That's not interesting. It's sad. It. gets sad cuz you can't remember. >> It's the 27th. >> Uh, you know how I remember that? [laughter].
>> Yeah. So, to help you. >> No, I remember cuz 2 plus 7 is nine. >> What? >> And what platform will it be on? >> What's that? >> What platform? YouTube. >> I told you it was going to be on. YouTube. On the 800 lb gorilla. >> Yes. Yes, I do listen special. >> Well, apparent according to some. critics, too long. I said it was an. extra 20 minutes you didn't need. [laughter]. >> There was a whole part where you were. just talking about airline food. No one. needed that. I uh I've always revered. you. You know that. Don't start doing a.
bit with the water glass. >> I'm listening to you. >> No, you're not. You're doing You're. You're more worried about your bit with. the water glass than you're about. talking to me. >> Why is everything a bit for you? >> It's not a bit. >> Why are you so defensive like I'm a. pretty serious guy when you think about. it. You are um multi-talented. You. really are. You're hilarious. Uh comic. and then you do this thing. You come out. of the blue a couple of years ago. >> You um not that long ago and I guess you. were developing this in private. Um you. come out with these caricatures and. they're fantastic and you did a book of.
caricatures and they're really amazing. and whenever you call me the image that. comes up is your caricature of yourself. you're very talented at this and uh I. just wanted to do my cap to you and. wonder why still no second book. The. first book was great and I keep waiting. for you to do a caricature of me one of. your heroes. >> First of all, I've never had anyone do. their hat to me and I appreciate that. >> You don't get out much then. >> I And you also don't travel. >> I don't hang out with people.
>> 19th century London. [laughter]. >> No, but Siri, you're very. >> I love doing the caricatures.

I. used to take. >> I would take I would wear old man's. shoes when I was a writer, wing tip. shoes that I got at secondhand stores,
you know, flea markets. I would if I. found a shoe that was my size, I would. buy it. This was one of my weird things. I did. And I wear jeans and a t-shirt. and then these old like 1950s and60s. shoes. You can relate to this, gory. >> Well, I think you'd like me to, but no, you've gone even [laughter] too far for. me. >> I mean, people died in these shoes. And. it's like your cat these I mean, and so. I would wear these shoes and then. sometimes when we were writing, you all. do things when you're bored, you're. trying to come up with an idea. I would. take off one of my shoes and I would put. it on the table and just look at it.
while I was thinking. >> You rearrange it a little bit, shift it. around. >> Yeah. And I would look at this old man's. shoe that I wore and you once sketched. me looking at my shoe. >> Yeah. Yeah. That, by the way, is that. MoMA now? >> Yeah. >> That particular one is. >> Is it MoMA? [laughter]. >> Yeah. >> So, yeah. So, I've been doing a lot of. >> You invested nothing in that lie.

I bitched at you for a while. because you've never done a proper one. of me and I was a little hurt because. you were doing all these He was He was. doing all these other people you didn't. even know. >> Like, oh, here's. >> because I've been to your offices before. and you have so much fan art. >> So many different characters of you and. drawings.

I I believe that and I believe that you. are. >> um a unique voice and you've never. compromised, you know.

And I have. great respect for you. >> Appreciate that. >> Yeah. >> Now, let me tell you a joke I just. wrote. >> Okay. [snorts]. >> This is where I think it might be. getting a little hacky. >> Okay. >> I was in Phoenix. Mhm. >> Last week I flown in. I got there. It.
was a long time to get there because of. the cancellation stuff. And I'm going. into my hotel room and I'm starving and. I'm exhausted [clears throat] and I see. the safe. I thought it was a microwave. I thought, "Oh, good. A microwave." So, I put a frozen Mac in there. I locked it. up for 6 to 8 minutes. [laughter]. >> You just thought of that. >> No, I thought about it before and I've. honed it down. [laughter]. >> So, you thought of it for when did you. think of it? How long ago? >> Like 5 days ago. [clears throat]. >> Okay. >> I haven't stopped working on it. I.
finally fine tuned it. >> Yeah. >> Let me say it again cuz you weren't. paying attention. [laughter]. >> So I was really exhausted and I was. hungry and I come into the hotel room. and I noticed there's a safe off to my. peripheral vision. >> and I go, "Oh, good." So I um I locked. up a frozen mac and cheese in there for. 6 to 8 minutes [laughter]. >> and I left it in there. Mhm. >> And so the next people came in, the. woman put her necklace in the safe into.
the frozen mac and cheese. [laughter]. >> Period. [laughter]. >> This is a new thing you're on to. Period. And then the lets the audience. know. [laughter] You let the audience. know that the joke has been told. >> It's instead of and seen. >> And seen period. [laughter]. >> I I like it. I like it. [laughter]. >> Let's look at the picture again. Do you.
um do you crack yourself up a lot when. you think of these things? >> I find myself pretty funny. >> Does your wife think you're funny? >> Yes. >> People um It's so condescending, but. people are always saying if Liza laughs. at anything I say, they act amazed. >> But how do you reciprocate with what she. does? What what what are you what is she. missing from you? >> [laughter]. >> I don't know. I haven't thought about. that. That's a really. >> Maybe you should think about other. people besides yourself. [laughter].
>> Oh, that's a really good That's a good. point. >> But I mean, you love her for a lot of. things. >> No, >> but you don't show it. >> Again, it comes back to you being too. insensitive to show your feelings. >> Let me finish. Let me finish. I think. Goldber's right. [laughter] Did you hear. what you just said? When did you just. said he said that on my hike? >> Yeah, he said hiking with Kevin. Yeah, he said it. And did you hear what he. just said? >> Oh, fourth plug. >> That was the last one. YOU SAID FOUR.
THAT'S THE FOURTH PLUG. >> YEAH, YOU SAID I had a four. >> Yeah, I didn't think you'd get there. That's incredible. >> Oh, I'm going to get the six before I. leave. >> Okay. [laughter] Did you see? But he. just breathed out and you you have so. much venom in you. It comes out. But. you're a lovely man. I'm going to say. that. You're a lovely guy and I think. you've got a big heart. But right, there's little there's little razor. blades in there. Bill Burr is right. You've got these little tiny razors. >> He didn't say that to you. He said that. on my hike. >> I know. He said it on the hike. Yeah, >> but I was baiting him. >> What do you mean? >> I was baiting him to to kind of I was.
pushing his buttons to try to get some. kind of a. >> Bill Irish guy from Boston out into the. Boston. >> You didn't need to You didn't need to. bait him. >> He's not from Boston. He's told that. many times. He's from the suburbs. Yes. And he got angry cuz I kept saying he's. from Boston. I always think that means Boston area. Don't you think that's fair? >> That's what I said. >> Wow. Matt wants no part of this podcast. today. [laughter]. >> Just. projecting on each other. Have you. noticed? And we talked about this last.
time. Like you're accusing him of those. things that you might as well be. pointing in a mirror. And same thing you. guys are. >> Exactly. Exactly. >> Because if I was pointing at a mirror, I'd be pointing at myself. [laughter]. >> That's why you're so angry at me cuz you. see. >> So you're saying I'm calling him out on. things that are all me. >> Yeah. >> They're little razor blades in what I. say. >> and vice versa. >> Yes. >> Yeah. So, we're kind of the same guy and. that's why these are so weird. >> That's what he's getting to with the. magnets. You're the same magnet, but. you're polar opposite. >> Yes. This is really good. Put it out. I'll be back in about an hour. >> You know what? You we we are Yes. That.
is why these are so weird. these. and and fantastic. slashd disturbing is that it's two of. the same people and we. >> it's kind of fight clubby where you may. not know the other one doesn't exist. You know what I mean? >> Yes. >> You you know what I mean? You don't. [clears throat]. >> No. >> Well, okay. >> I'm confused. >> Confused by that movie. >> I think that if we let our guards down. and open ourselves to each other, we'll. find out that we're really not worth.
much as a [laughter] person. You know. what I mean? Seriously, it's just and. that's why we keep that wall up because. we don't want to know. >> We don't want to accept that truth. >> That's true. You are me and I am you. And I've told you this a million times. >> I saw those words come out of Paul. McCartney's mouth. [laughter]. >> You got us back there, didn't you? Would you like to do a plug for Sir. Paul? >> What are you [laughter] thinking about. right now? What do you have to do later. today? >> No, I was just thinking about how this. is kind of revvelatory that we are the.
same person. >> Yeah. And I I told you this a million. times, but it bears repeating. When I. met with Lauren for the first time to. maybe get a job at SNL, he asked me uh. who was my favorite cast member, and you. were pretty new, but I had seen you do. some things on Update. And I said, I. like Kevin Nean. And um Lauren kind of. made a face like, okay, want another. shot at that question? [laughter]. No, he loved you too. He loved you, too.
I'm kidding. But my point, >> if I have to hear that story one more. time, it's going to drive me crazy. [laughter]. >> But. >> I get it. >> But. but my point is I think I was some guy. on my couch in late 1987 in my early 20s. looking at someone on TV and I think I. saw something that was in me and then I. that's why I liked you and now uh you. and I are both sick in the exact same. way. It's fascinating. You guys both.
want each other to root for yourselves. >> Yes. I want And you know what? That's. because I want to root for me. >> Yeah. Exactly. >> This is fascinating. We're through the. looking glass. This is incredible. I. want to I want you to root for me cuz I. want to root for me instead of hating. me. And that's why you can't finish a. sentence with me and all of your, you. know, Okay. It's what spam? Have you had. spam lately? [laughter]. We're not completely alike. [laughter].
>> There are some crucial differences. >> A little hole in my theory just now. I. think. >> I agree with you. >> I had spam uh summer camp. [laughter] At. summer camp, they used to cut off slices. of ham and put it in a skillet when I. was up there in the woods in New. Hampshire and fry it up. And I. remembered looking at the spam cooking. and then looking at my red freckled arm. and thinking, "Those look the same.". [laughter]. >> Seriously, that's a real memory. Did they put brown. sugar in it? Because that helps with. anything. My father used to cook. everything with brown sugar. Spam,
bacon. >> It's amazing. I thought I had just. cracked this elemental thing. [laughter]. If you had been in the room with. Einstein when he was sitting there at. the patent office and he said, "Wait a. minute. Maybe E= MC² and maybe. everything is relative and the speed of. light." You would have cut him off. You. would have cut him off [laughter] and. said, "Do you really think a bedet. works?". They'd be like, "Huh? A bedet like a. Japanese toilet. Do you think those. really work? [laughter] I mean, isn't. the toilet doing most of the work? Aren't we supposed to do some of the.
work? >> What did I say? Did I say equals? Wait, what was it? I forget now. >> What about spam? You ever spam? >> Ever spam? Did it look like you're on. it? >> No, cuz whenever we go on a hike. together and we're doing my little hike. on YouTube, hiking with Kevin, you are. always like. so like this is all so ridiculous. This. whole notion of hiking and talking to. somebody and the drone, it's just what. am I doing here? Okay, let's go. >> When we did when I did the second hiking. with Kevin, you had this drone. You de. you devoted so much time to getting.
these drone shots that are the most. unimpressive drone shots you'll ever. see. They're taken from ladder height. [laughter] If we had brought a ladder, we would get at the same shot. And you. kept having this thing go up. I think. you have separation anxiety from your. drone. You wanted it only to be like 2. feet away from us at all times. And you. spent forever around with the. drone and [laughter]. and then packing it up and putting it. back in its little backpack. And you. would [laughter] go along and then you'd. release it again, but not too high. Just.
up to here. And you. >> Bill Burr loved the drone. >> Uhhuh. >> He loved the drone. >> Well, he's a suburban dad about the. drone. >> Yeah. You know, >> um but yeah, but you you really found it. ridiculous. And yet you never say no to. me. >> No, I don't. And I do love you. You know. why? Because I do love you. >> And I do feel bad. >> and I do love myself then. [laughter]. >> I do feel badly uh sometimes asking you. for things. >> No, you don't. >> I do because I'm thinking when is he. going to say no? When is he going to say. no? >> I I'm I am a sucker for this guy. I'll.

You. get the sense that the people who work. at Costco are really happy. No, I think. they're well taken care of. I really. think that the corporate structure there. is. >> Bla's got something. Let's go, Bla. >> Uh I was just going to say that Costco. is known for having uh great benefits.
for their employees, like health. benefits and stuff. Like it's like a. well-known thing. Thank you. >> I could do it, too. >> I No, and the thing is I know you could. I know you could.

When do I When do I get to stay with my. boss in a fivestar hotel?" and um make. poo poo and butt jokes. When do I I. mean, you know what I mean? >> I don't think they make poo poo and butt. jokes at Costco. I've made jokes.

Well, that's So I I I think I need. to re rethink it [laughter]. >> and rethink it. >> Rethink it. Yeah. >> No. No. I but I do think I I know you're. incredibly practical and you you're. completely self-made. No one ever. offered you anything and you made. yourself and so I know that you would do. okay. And now. >> the I. >> is it what you want to do or.
realistically have to do? You know what. I mean? >> I think it's um what I'm talking about. is you've got to put food on the table. You're going to have two kids. >> Um they're crying.

benefits with consultant work either, right? >> I've never I have always had to manage. benefits on my own cuz I've always just. kind of worked gig style, you know. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Yeah.

also very smart, and I think you're. charismatic, and I think you would, you. know, you'd be like, >> you'd be like, "Hey guys, I'm on the. city council." Um, and then you would, you're not easily corruptible. You'd be. one of the good ones. So, I think you'd. be a good politician. >> Yeah, I think so, too. >> But can you go out and get a job quickly. as a politician? >> That's the That's the tough thing with. this. >> That's why I'm thinking about I'm just. thinking about Oh, it's the depression. your business has completely gone away.
