RE-RELEASE - Andy Samberg

20:36Dana Carvey:That's always weird. So my wife's not coming? Wait, that won't go down well. I heard there's no plus ones. You know, you were in a Vanity Fair the other night, right? I didn't go because of the knee. Oh, the knee, that's right. I just want you to know I was invited, though. Oh, yeah. Dana, this Vanity Fair thing. I should have brought fucking Dana. Oh, I couldn't. That's the point. I couldn't bring anyone. I was invited for 25 years, never went. So finally they stopped inviting me. Oh, God. For people at home, they hear about that Vanity Fair party. like the Oscar party, right? Yeah. So there's one at Gaios after that, which is really fun.

21:04And that's, at least I know him. So it's easier, but Vanity Fair, it's not an audition, but you just hear when, Oh, if you want to go to the Vanity Fair, I always thought I was always invited. And then one year I go, Hey, I didn't hear about that Vanity Fair. I think I want to go to that and bring my buddy. And they go, it's just so tricky this year. I'm like, Oh, what does that mean? They're like, I can't go. And they're like, it's not that it's just that you can't right now. And I'm like, So it is that. And then, but they, for people listening, you know, you see pictures of the Vanity Fair party, but it's a fun party, but they stagger you.

21:37Yes. So you either go like Apatow. I didn't know anyone and I got no plus one. And I said, I think I'm going to go. I get home for my shows. I just want to go at least do something. I can't stay all the way awake till a guy's party, but I go, I'll just go to this one. Oh, wait, what's my time? Yes. And so I got 9.30, which is pretty good. 9.30 is not bad. This is all embarrassing, Dana. It's the cool group of life. It's cool kids. And they go, you're right between Gigi Hadid and Harvey Weinstein. They let him out. Just defer to him. He's there. I'm like, this is the only thing you get out for?

22:10It's cruel and unusual not to let that man go to that party. So I go embarrassingly. But 9.30 is not bad. One year I got midnight and no plus one. I didn't go. Too embarrassing.

22:22Dana Carvey:Now you've got Fly on the Wall, so it's a hit podcast. No, they know.

22:29Dana Carvey:But back to our guest. No, I want to tell him, because he's done this. It's embarrassing. That when you go, you get out by yourself, and I say, I hit Apatow. And I say, are you there? And he goes, oh, I got here at five. I got five. He went to five. What did he have a head cold? How does he sound? Do it again. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Let's get my head cold. Everyone has a little Apatow. you cop an attitude and just say the name you do the thing I'm dead apple top how you guys doing I'm dead apple top that's pretty funny what you did that was really funny yeah he does say that he does say that's funny a lot so anyway you're generous I get there I get the present I hit right when all the models hit and they're all 50 feet tall and I go can I just cut in front of you guys and just and they're like is someone talking and so I go I remember I went up to Jessica Alba I go oh I thought you were Nancy Pelosi that was my joke to her and she goes fuck you and I go no she's right behind you and I go cause it's funny cause one time she kicked me in the ass at the Golden Globes and she said hey fats and I turn around I don't even know her Nancy Pelosi?

23:33no I know I'm sorry I knew I knew that's funny

23:34Dana Carvey:and I fell for it hey fats can I do my name? no I saw Nancy Pelosi at Wendy's once no I tried to get you back Nancy I bought it Nancy Pelosi always looks like she just sat on something cold and wet that's nice Sorry, that's my Nancy Pelosi joke Well finish this No, there's no story, I was just saying it's embarrassing And I went there and That was it, I guess Wait, why did Alba call you fats? She did because she thought it was funny And I thought it was funny If you really were fat, that would be insensitive Yeah, I just, no, I didn't care It was back in the Dark Angel days Oh, we're talking Dark Angel there, Alba?

24:16Well, that's when I used to get to go to the Golden Clothes So this time I was just getting her back because sometimes if I see her, she says something like that. Understood. You guys have kind of like a... She was funny, yeah. You have carpet rapport. It was nothing mean. It was just being stupid. Carpet rapport, you're right. That is a thing that if you go to a lot of award shows and award show parties, you do start having like award season friends that you only see at events. And it's a very strange phenomenon. You're like, hey! But then you like...

24:44Dana Carvey:And you never see them again. You're never like, we should exchange numbers. You want to hear something weird for 10 seconds? You just see them at the next part. Just see them at that. I went in 91, I think, because of Wayne's World. So I look over, I say, I think it's Juliette Lewis. We'll put it in later. Hey, thanks. I said Juliette Lewis and Brad Pitt. I think it was her. Oh, when they were dating, yeah. I see them off the side, and I can see that they're talking to each other, whether they should come over and talk to me. Oh, that's nice. Like nervously coming over. And did they? Mm-hmm. I go, we're just going to leave now.

25:14Dana Carvey:And he goes, that's a good plan. I like that plan. Let's face it, man. Mama God, Dan has been. Sorry, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood? Yeah, I've seen it. That was Brad Pitt. 11 times. You were in there, right? Yeah, neither. No. 11 times. What I'm interested in right now about this podcast, I'm interested in Andy and his buddies. They make their thing, and then they come to SNL, and your first broom, and then you did come up with Lazy Sunday at SNL. Yeah. So walk me through that process. you meet Lauren, you tell them. What was your first meeting with Lauren and the writers? What was that vibe?

25:53Well, we got the show actually because we were writing on the MTV Movie Awards and Fallon hosted. So I do owe a great deal to Fallon. He's like, oh my God, what's up, man? I know, he's awesome. We love him. I did him in my audition because I knew he did Sandler in his and it was very winky. Oh, wow. What was your take on Fallon? It was Jimmy Fallon at a funeral. He's like, oh my God, so sad. I'm so sad what a tragedy

26:24Dana Carvey:anyway here's the next album I just took him to the anth but yeah he was great and he was super great to us and we got some stuff in the show and Higgins and Shoemaker were there for people who don't know who were SNL producers and a bunch of the writers and we kind of hit it off with everybody so they were like you guys should audition so how did you audition yeah what do you do were you Andy Samberg or with your buddies or I did a solo and I did I had been doing stand up for like five or six years seven years really I didn't know that yeah where were you playing mostly well I started off I was going to NYU for a couple years and I started doing just bringer shows in New York so like Cellar and Boston Comedy Club and it was called that and Gotham all those kinds of places and then I moved out here and And like the best I ever got to was doing a couple of shows here and there at the improv.

27:18And then I did Premium Blend on Comedy Central. That was kind of the high watermark for me. Yeah, that's a good one. Okay. But so I did some of that stuff. And then they were like, but you need characters and impressions. And I was like, I don't have. You didn't really? Not really. We just made up a bunch of shit like the weeks leading up to it. And those guys helped me, Keeve and Jorm. And it went well. So they said, you need to come back. And then they also had Jorm audition. and Keeve did a meeting with Lauren and we all submitted a writing packet together.

27:46Dana Carvey:All three writing. Yeah. And you got the feature performer? Yeah. And then they got hired as writers. They're writers. It was a crazy dream where all of a sudden we were like - Three of you guys to get on is very bonkers. Well, to come in with your buddies from eighth grade and now we're all on Saturday Night Live. And we had already been, I mean, we'd known each other a long time, so we had shorthand and we trusted each other, but it was also like we had spent the last five years in LA making stuff. So we had kind of a rhythm of what we were doing already. And a TV show on YouTube, basically.

28:15Kind of, yeah. I mean, people didn't really know about it the same way they do now, but it was the same thing in that we had gotten a lot of the bad stuff out of our system.

28:26Dana Carvey:You had to practice. Well, the thing is that, and for young people today, I say, well, just do a YouTube channel, do this and that, and then you get two views or five, And then you're reading about someone else with, you know, Rihanna has 500 million. And to keep yourself going, you guys obviously just loved it. Yeah. Even though it wasn't getting tremendous traction. No, it was also just a different time. Like YouTube really didn't exist yet when we were doing it. So you didn't know that compare and despair thing. For us, it was like, let's just make stuff until we feel like we're good. And it'll work itself out one way or another.

28:57But we never thought we'd get SNL. That was like my big only dream. And I was like. It was just Fallon saw something. I even went and did the Groundlings intro audition for the classes and stuff and just tanked it. I just wanted it too bad.

29:14Dana Carvey:I was like, my brain went a million different places. Isn't that the tough part of the show? Try not to try. Because whenever you push, it never works. And yet you want to be present. It's trying to catch the wind. It's always there. But isn't it great when you're in the pocket and you don't give a fuck? Yeah. I don't know. What year did you kind of go, I'm not nervous on stage. I'm relaxed was it right away or was it it took me like I think 80 shows I think it was probably by like your 4 or 5 yeah it's once you feel like you're not gonna get fired yeah I think is truly it then you get genuinely loose and then people relax cause you're relaxed did you get picked up every year where it was like pretty much on cause I had to go home in May and he wouldn't decide yeah you guys had a crazy stretch I had to check out of my apartment I had to get out well because the old guys my team didn't leave I stayed until 93.

30:04Dana Carvey:Yeah. So you overlapped and that was a reason. But once we all cleared out, I think David had a pretty hot two years. Yeah. When you guys were all there at the same time, like the two different generations. Yeah, we were. And you look at it, it's so rare in the history of the show where you look at both generations and it's fucking stacked in both. Yeah. That's the craziest part to me about when you guys were all there. 90 to 93. I feel like that was the most loaded because we had David and Farley and Sandler and Chris Rock. And they're coming up and doing stuff. Adam's getting the guitar. He's going.

30:38Dana Carvey:And then we had Phil Hartman and myself and Mike Myers. Yeah. That's a lot of people making shit that like ended up on a T-shirt, you know? Yeah. Well, we talked with Lorne about that. And it was like, if it's a team, you know, you've got this guy can start or this guy can start. So we had Toontes the Cat even with Jack Hand. Throwing Toontes. but yeah even just like throw in deep thoughts yeah which was a constant on the show and super funny that always was and Mike would throw down his sprockets and or Wayne's world you know Sandler would do Opera Man you know it got greatest hits every show practically but anyway enough about that era this is called Dana and David no I love so I want to hear if we can tactically you go in to Rockefeller Center yes what are you feeling and do you have a private meeting with Lorne or with the three of you or what?

31:28Dana Carvey:You mean when I got hired? When you got hired. First time you went and talked to Lorne. They had me and Bill fly out. Bill Hader? Yes, sorry. Me and Bill Hader to fly out. I'm told to meet with Lorne. You audition twice. They're interested. They want you to come meet with Lorne. Me and Bill sit next to each other on a flight from LA to New York. Marcy Klein had already told him that me and him got the show. Oh, wow. Cool. No one told me, and Bill, bless his heart, pretended the entire flight that he didn't know, so he didn't be the one to tell me. He wanted me to have my moment where I got to actually find out.

32:06That's nice. So the whole, he makes fun of me now because we talk all the time. He's like, you were like, oh, man, I wonder if we're going to get it, you fucking idiot. I knew. But so we get there. He goes in for his meeting, which is just saying hi to Lauren because he knows he's got the show. Then I go in and I talk to Lauren, you know, maybe 10 minutes and it's Lauren. So he gives you nothing. Mentions nothing about anyone. Was there anyone in the room? No, just me and him. He never stands up and leans over the table and goes, congratulations, you've got the job. He literally cuts a cigar.

32:37Dana Carvey:Are here. It's not like a real. Just have a real all if you want. Now you must do a Lauren or a Lauren impression. It doesn't matter how good it is. It's not good, but it's basically him being like, so do you think you'd be willing to cut your hair? Willing to cut your hair? It was really crazy long. I was like, oh yeah, I'll shave my head if you want, whatever you want. I was like on Coke. But that's a very specific horn. And he goes, you think you could do this? You think you could live in New York? And I was like, oh yeah, I've lived here before. I lived here for two years recently. He's like, okay, well, we're going to all go out to dinner.

33:07So you should come. And I was like, okay. And I walked out and I looked around and it was like, Jen and Shookus were there. And I was like, and they were like, so? And I was like, I don't know. what happened? And they're like, you got it. So they were the ones who told me. But Lord never went like, we're hiring you. Those words never came out of it. I never heard that either. I don't think he ever does.

33:30Dana Carvey:Some lieutenant comes up and he like fell on the floor. So where did you go to dinner? Do you remember? And how many people were in that dinner? Because that's kind of a big thing to be invited. Orso was a big one for Tuesday night dinners. I remember wherever we went, it was in that theater district area. and it was me and Bill and a few other people and Conan was there at a different table and they were like oh Conan you should meet these are going to be two new cast members and I was just like freaking the fuck out we're like my life just got so cool yeah it's a cool fact he would come up to us and go well well if it's not shitty crappy and cruddy oh yeah and being all tall too so tall so alpha dominating that's an animated show it's a funny one shitty crappy and cruddy right after this when you did impressions like you said like I didn't really do impressions too many but did they assign you one or say hey can you play this or did you do Marky Mark that one all my impressions happened on accident like I think Emily Spivey and someone else were the first ones to be like oh we put you in this thing as Nick Cage and I was like I don't do Nick Cage but so I just worked on it and it ended up being something I found out that I could kind of do and Wahlberg I was doing some bit with Jonah Hill actually we were hanging out in the summertime and he's like you kind of sound like Mark Wahlberg right now and I was like, ooh, anything to get on the fucking show.

34:51Yeah. So I tried. I tried that and I wrote it with Steele. But say hello to your mother for me is the funniest thing to say. Which character says that? He does Wahlberg. Oh, Wahlberg. You're with a donkey or something. I saw him talk to animals. Yeah, he talks to animals. That was Steele's idea.

35:07Dana Carvey:But you found that rhythm, that hook, that huh. Yeah, it's funny. Obviously, you're one of the greatest of all time at the impressions. and like I'm close with people also who are like Wig and Fred and Bill. I mean, it's a whole other skill set and I've never considered myself good at it, but there's like a few times in my life where I have found it and I'm like, oh, this must be what it's like for them all the time. Fun, yeah. Like it is really fun to do it. It can be hard. And it becomes its own language and it becomes its own character. Well, that's the thing. It becomes a character. So I know many, many incredibly accurate impressionists that aren't intrinsically funny.

35:45Yeah.

35:45Dana Carvey:But since you're a comedian, when you did it, it was funny. And also it was accurate enough that it represented Mark Wahlberg. Sure, sure. So it worked completely. How many times did you do that? It was kind of a hit. I think only twice. Really? Yeah. And you did it to Mark Wahlberg. Well, he came on the show and to basically, he did a whole thing where he was like, I guess they had asked him about it and he said something negative. And then I think him and his team were like, oh, we don't want people thinking I'm being too much of a bummer about this. So he came on and like pretended like he was going to kick my ass.

36:19Yes. And it was very pleasant. It was totally fine. It was the episode that Palin was on too. It was a crazy episode. Oh, big one. That's a score.

36:27Dana Carvey:Yeah, your time was pretty heady, you know? Yeah. That election year and your bandmates, so to speak. Yeah. It was interesting for us. Every election, we were there for two election years, I think. And our joke was always like, oh, well, we're not going to have anything on the show this year because it became so political. and we just didn't really engage with that. We just wanted to make goofy shit. But now I think for everyone who works there now, that's just every year. Yeah, it's just nonstop. Politics, you mean? Like it always has to be like about something and saying something and addressing what's happening.

37:03I think they have less opportunity to just do kind of weird ideas. The world changed. Yeah, and it's probably going to change back. I mean, that's how it's historically happened.

37:12Dana Carvey:I like acid humor the best. I like silliness the best, if I have to say. Madness. And coming full circle back to you.

37:27Dana Carvey:So, Lazy Sunday and the Princess of Narnia, are you writing that when it's coming together? I'm just curious, that's your first SNL? Is that the first one or not the first one? That was the second one. We had made one short that aired before that called Lettuce, which was bomb no I'm kidding hey come on hey David that's kind of mean he's the one that said he's our guest what are you talking about I know he said but that was as part of SNL not a pre-SNL no it aired on SNL it was a it was a Will Forte idea that we did with him and we shot it on like a home home camera and it aired and we were like holy shit that aired and then Lazy Sunday was the second one that aired but that wasn't until the Christmas episode of our first season did you show it to Lauren when you got it completely finished no I think The first time he saw it, I think, was at Dress.

38:16Dana Carvey:And I assume you guys knew you had a hit with that. No, no. It felt irresistible to me. Once it aired, we were like, oh, shit, this is, I think people really liked it. The crowd liked it. Yeah. Yeah. It was a new feeling. And, you know, you came out real hot. I don't really remember your beginning part, but I just remember knowing that you were there and you were good. No, it was worked in, wormed in over time. We had been there up till Christmas to that point, you know, and we hadn't, we had gotten stuff on and we were getting along with everybody, but we weren't like, we're killing this. Flowing up.

38:53You know, yeah. So for us, it was still the mentality of, oh, it's going to air. Like it was that, it was still that early. Yeah, you don't want to jinx it. They think it's going to air. And then the crazy thing that happened with Lazy Sunday was what you brought up was it all of a sudden became a news item because everyone was like, there's a website called YouTube. And then every article about it was a picture of me and Parnell. Yes, you kind of represented YouTube. When you do this, do you say, does Shoemaker or someone say you should put a cast member in it with you? Or is that your idea? Well, what do you mean?

39:27Like it's you and Parnell. Chris Parnell. Oh, yeah. Well, in the beginning, Keev and Jorm shot one that was an idea that we all had when I was in LA for an off week taking generals. Yeah. Time well spent. Take those generals. Generals. General meeting. Yeah, yeah.

39:46Dana Carvey:Oh, you're just generals now? Yeah. I came back and they had made something and I was like, oh shit, it's that idea. It's so funny. And we showed it to Shoemaker and Higgins and they were like, you guys just went and made this? and we're like yeah and they're like do stuff like this for the show but put the cast in it that was literally what they said yeah and so they'd say put the cast because you're too new so did Parna did you have to coach him at all because like if someone cast me in that I don't know how you you're double tracking to get because it sounds like real rap all your stuff does to me like yeah so what do you double track you put effects on it just has this muscularity yeah I mean we had been making songs for fun and we had shot a few music videos for them And that was like something we had sort of started doing before SNL.

40:32And we're like, oh yeah, we could try a song here. That might be fun. And we knew Parnell quote unquote rapped or frapped as we call it. Fake rapping because he used to do it on update. Like he did a thing. I think like Britney Spears one week was the musical guest and he like did a rap dedicated to Britney Spears that we thought was super funny. What a score for him to be in that though. Yeah, but it was also awesome for us because he was fucking hilarious. as soon as it starts you're like oh my god Parnell is so in he dedicates his brain to it him and Forte both have that weird gene of a performer where like they will never break no matter what like they're so in it Forte is there's like a slight psychosis to it that makes you laugh so hard because you can tell they're actually lunatics deep down and you love it there's something a little different Yeah, something's wrong.

41:25Dana Carvey:Forte had his own lane. He did some brilliant, just only he could do. I would say he probably, of everyone, and this is saying a lot, because I loved almost everyone I worked with there. At the table, he was the person I was always the most excited to see what he was going to do, because it was always so weird. He was so weird. Yeah. I remember the potato chip one, when he came here and screened. Oh, potato chips an all-timer. I told him about that, and he goes, you saw the potato chip one? I just watched it one night on television. And I go, yeah, it was, you know, comedians, we know where all the tricks are.

41:57Dana Carvey:But, you know, to get surprised by another comedian and the commitment. Then you have to just commit. But. And you give Lauren credit for seeing a weird bit and it even bombs miserably. And he goes, put it on. Yeah. And it takes balls to go, we're teaching the audience this is funny. We're not saying, oh, it didn't do as good. You know, you just go, no, this is what should be out there. Lauren has that gear. Can I, Wayne's World Story? Yeah. I sometimes do stuff that I don't explain. So anyway, I was doing Garth's making a mechanical hand. I hope you've seen the movie. But in my mind, the mechanical hand is going to strangle Rob Lowe.

42:32Dana Carvey:Yes. So Rob Lowe comes in before it's finished, so then I beat the shit out of it. So it's laying there at the previews, and I kind of liked it because it was my shtick, but I'm like, okay, I get it. You guys want to? And Lauren's like, it's one of those things, you know, like 20 years from now, you're like glad it's there. Yeah. I kept it. So Lauren does have that quirky side to him. Isn't that We Fear Change? It's that moment, right? Yes. Yeah. We Fear Change. I know the film. God, I love that. How do you react to people coming up to you the way you would have come up to someone else? Like to come up to you guys?

43:05Dana Carvey:I can't believe I'm me, Andy, Samberg, you know, at the airport or whatever. And they're usually very sweet and stuff. It's an out-of-body experience, isn't it? It's trippy. I mean, the first time it happens, you're like, fuck it, I did it. You know? yeah yeah um and then i don't know i always just think about and i truly like you guys are on this list when i was a teenager in my early 20s if i saw someone from snl in real life i would lose my shit so i try to always remember that i felt like that and the idea that somebody could feel that way about me is super exciting i never quite hate you the same way though like when i see akroyd or i saw dana those guys it's never the same as when people see me i go oh that's not that exciting when they saw me but I go I see these guys you know what I mean you gotta remember like when it's whatever there's everyone says this about SNL right it's like when when kids and teens are a certain age that cast is their cast and it means way more to them than even the original cast which feels impossible to us movies too when you grew up on movies 12 and 13 yeah you've seen Ackroyd after Blues Brothers and shit and you go oh my god but dude Wayne's World and Tommy Boy are those for me way more than Blues Brothers nothing against Blues Brothers it's just those were my those were my years where I was like holy shit I can't believe that they're getting to do this and I it makes me feel like I have a place on earth like literally because you want to do that stuff yeah and I still quote those movies like every week yeah that's nice I can believe you remember we fear change uh yeah dude did Garth say that Garth said that we fear change we fear change and then what about what about this pop star movie oh yeah I think I told that whole Vanity Fair story because Butt Bieber was there.

44:48I think that's what I was leading up to. Is that right? And he was wearing a blanket. Remember that? He was wearing a poncho. Did you see that? I wasn't there. Let's look at a clip. Let's go to the phones.

44:57Dana Carvey:Bieber, but it wasn't really a Bieber parody, but they marketed it as a Bieber parody. I like Bieber as well. And we met him a bunch of times at SNL. I'll say this. Super talent. Obviously, in that moment, it was like he was one of the biggest pop stars in the world. He still is. So we're making a movie about that world. so there are definitely jokes in it that are inspired by him and you exaggerate a situation like he's a big pop star what's the funniest version of everything doesn't mean it's about Bieber correct but there's also a lot of stuff about a lot of other people in it too and then a lot of stuff we just kind of made up I will say this Judd who bless his heart is the reason we got to make that movie fully produced it, fully ushered it told us like hey if you guys wanted to make a movie like that I'll produce it and just gave us basically a free pass to make a movie I think he was in line with Universal more about making the marketing feel a little more Bieber leaning and we were like this is Judd he doesn't fucking miss so whatever you guys want to do and then we ate shit at the box office ate a whole big pile of shit on a movie that's that is funny though that's a very colorful way to put it I've been in a couple of stinkers I'll tell you what it wasn't because it was the marketing or the Bieber stuff it was just like Like people didn't want to go to the theater for that.

46:16But also people reference it still.

46:19Dana Carvey:Sorry, isn't it kind of a cult film in a way? Like the people who are going to love it are going to be quoting it and possessed by it, I'm assuming. I mean, most of my favorite comedies didn't do well in theaters. Most. Wayne's World obviously is an exception. And, you know, there's exceptions. There's Anchorman, which is one of my all-time favorites. That did really well. but generally speaking you know like we were kind of like riding Spinal Taps coattails and when it came out I just kept reading stuff about how when Spinal Tap came out it was in like six theaters or something yeah there was like Wet Hot American Summer there's a bunch of ones I was in Spinal Tap that's right geez you know my whole you were in Spinal Tap Andy Samberg is interviewing me today and we're having a I was in Spinal Tap The Mime Waiter with Billy Crystal that's right it's super fun oh wow how fun But to me, that movie was, to your point, that was sort of like, God, you can make a movie like that.

47:13Dana Carvey:It's like the first mock documentary that I'd seen is like, this is so cool. It's one higher. Have you watched that movie anytime recently? Maybe not in the last couple years. It's crazy how well it holds up. Like just the pace of it. And it doesn't seem like it's rushing at all. You're not pushing. Yeah, yeah. But it doesn't waste a second of your time. Like it's just like type it, type it, type it. Every joke is funny. and they get out and it moves and the story makes sense and you actually kind of care in the end. We did a... Paul and I talked like Christopher Gass for like three years every time we talked and we actually played Blackjack at Harrah's we were playing and we just did it going to like this I'll give you...

47:54Dana Carvey:I'm supposed to take your call and you want me to take your call and try to do it is real enough that they may believe it. When I did Coneheads put the applause. Thank you. Coneheads, David Spade. With Michael McKeon I'd ask him on Spinal Tap and Coneheads after, you know when it came out was probably better than Spinal Tap. Anyway. Coneheads was great. Yes. Coneheads had so many funny people in it and it never just gelled perfectly. Well, I love anything where they're called Coneheads and their heads look like cones. I always liked that nail on the head. Maybe it was too on the money. I auditioned for Spinal Tap.

48:28Dana Carvey:You might find this interesting. I came into Rob Reiner and the whole cast. You did? Yeah, to play the drummer or something. Great. And then I go, this is nerve-wracking. you guys are all friends and I'm just walking in here. And so they all go, oh, we get that. They all just immediately left the room. They just got out of the room. I'm waiting there in five minutes and they come back in. They go, oh, we're a little nervous. How long have you been in here? I think they felt sorry for me so they gave me the mime thing. Oh, dude, this guy was in Growing Up 2. Was I ever? The cheerleader scene which was hysterical.

49:02That was a good girl. That was a fun day. That was a great thing to use guys like you where not to waste your time. It's like one bit funny and get out. I mean, yeah. That's the thing too that I know you know about once Sandler likes you and puts you in stuff, he'll be like, just come do a thing. You're like, okay. We'll figure it out later. Yeah. He has a very sweet whispering thing. So we're going to do a thing and you'll be like with a bunch of suds on you and stuff.

49:30Dana Carvey:You're going to be so funny. Hey, there he is. Adam has a lot of - The best. yeah the best a lot of rhythms to him and so we should he's in Hotel Translating we should talk about some of these as are you monster monster things dude were you you were in the fourth one right yes Andy yeah were you yeah was Selena yeah oh Adam wasn't correct that's right yeah you were we've been in four we've been in four together we've been in the I was in two trenches of Hotel Translating by the way that is like the the true like business joy of when Sandler likes you. Oh my God. He called me after we did That's My Boy and he called me after that and was like, hey, we're doing this animated thing and there's a goofy guy.

50:16He's the only human. You're going to be that guy. And I was like, okay, thanks, man. And then like four movies later. It pays off. Yeah, I'm just like, okay. I have a story about that, Dana, but it involves Andy, unfortunately. Okay. You have the floor. On Hotel Transylvania. So do you remember this? The first table read at Sony. Yeah. And Amy Pascal was there. Yeah. And it wasn't Selena. Who was Mavis? I truly have no idea. Miley Cyrus. Whoa, really? And she was a half hour late. And it was me, Sandler. Everyone was there waiting. Yeah. And they're like, and it was dead silent. Because, you know, Amy's the president of Sony.

50:55Comes in. Okay, we got a call. She's on the 405. She's getting off at Sawtelle. Everyone's like, Sawtelle. She's still not here. and it was like she comes on hey sorry and then sits down rifles to the script like I don't know if it's a cold read I was like first of all I love Miley Cyrus first of all she's a great singer she loves you too she's unbelievable I just saw her do Like a Prayer live with her cowboy hat on she's a great singer this was just an off thing because she did the table read and the movie obviously went fine but they got Selena I don't remember that right after and I don't know Miley decided not to do it or just was not a perfect fit.

51:36But Selena is obviously unbelievable and great. And she was, I only met her twice along the way because we don't do that much. You know, we don't shoot them all together. I mean, I've never been in the room with her for anything but press. We do all the press. We do all the press together and it's like, hey, this is fun. This is a bunch of nice people. Cancun, didn't we go somewhere for the - Yes, dude, that was crazy. The Sony like retreat. That was nuts. And then my wife and I were like, oh, we're going to go to Tulum. we're already here

52:04Dana Carvey:yeah you're in Mexico go ahead Dana oh I just wanted to because I know we have our producer Greg Holston gave us a list a super fan the huge obviously dick in a box we can't get through all of them but you know but dick in a box with Justin also dancing with Beyonce oh yeah single ladies with Bobby Moynihan single ladies so if you want to talk about those quickly I mean dick in a box you have to go to Beyonce or does Marcy or does someone go to her we wrote it me and Bobby I think I might be getting that wrong but I think that was it and I think we knew Justin was around and could do it and then I think it was Justin that went and talked to Beyonce about it because we were like well he's very famous and she's very famous so that would probably go better she'll see his DM and also like it's him being like I'm gonna be in a leotard like we're celebrating you, whatever it is.

53:03But she was delightful. She's such a sweet, wonderful person in my limited interaction with her. But that one was fun because we just were like, there's no way people are going to be mad at this. It's too funny. It's great. She rolls with it and it's all, and having her in it and then that's probably a blow up on video. Also her doing that song, like her performance of that song, that night on the show is one of the most incredible performances it's hard I mean yes and they're in like giant heels and just fucking destroying like her and Prince I think are the two people in my time there where I was like I don't understand what's happening right now it's so impressive she seems like a very hard worker from like early age of like busting up and gives 100 % in every performance she's a killer that song check on it she has so many words in it there's a couple songs where I go how does she I mean to do a whole concert she has so much to do and dance and sing and costume her last album was incredible and everyone's in love with her yeah and then you know Dick in a Box Beyonce if you'd ever like to come on the podcast you're always welcome obviously everyone likes you here go ahead yeah Dick in a Box Dick in a Box you know it was fine we just kind of threw it together any problems with that was the first one

54:20Dana Carvey:that went kind of sexual or R right or that hard because Dick in a Box was like on the edge right did censor people give you any Natalie Portman at the end of the previous year, and it was filthy, but it was all bleeped. But that was all her. Oh, it was all bleeped. That was all her. But people really liked that one, too. What was that one? It was just her rapping real filthy, basically. She loved Lil' Kim and told us she wanted to do one, and we were like, okay. How great. And you bleeped all the words out. Yeah, a lot of bleeps. I mean, that was the fun of getting to do so much pre-tape as we ended up, there was not a lot of bleeps before us, I don't think.

55:02When you do dick in a box to the audience, it says dick in a box. No, I think it was bleeped in the room. Oh, no, really? Because it's live. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah. So what part is bleeped? The word dick. Yeah, Dana. Yeah.

55:15Dana Carvey:So you can't say dick, okay. You can say box. Well, couldn't they just bleeped box? Interesting you bring this up though, Dana. Dick in a, and you wouldn't know what it meant. It could be Dick Wilson. Well, it could be dick in your pants, like a medical thing. Two things. Two things about the bleeps. We were told that because it was bleeped, people thought it was cock. Cock in a box. Even dirtier, really. Yes. And it sounds much worse musically. And then a few years later, we aired the song Jizz in My Pants with no bleeps and no anything. What's jizz? I don't know. I still don't know. Thank you.

55:52I'm told someday I'll find out. but that one it had to air after 12 15 or something like it was like at the very end of the show and I think whoever was running NBC at the time it was maybe like Jeff Zucker or somebody came down to the show and like they had a whole conversation about it interesting basically we brought it in because we had already started doing albums at that point it was from our first album and we were like hey we have this video maybe we could just play it a dress and see how it goes and then it was like ooh it went well and Lauren was like so we should air it and they're like but can we And we're like, we have a censored version, which does exist where instead of jizz, you just hear variations of us going.

56:32It's a lot sillier, but not as funny. You could have a dick in a box and also jizz in the box. You could. With the dick. Say more about that. Well, I'm going to show you a chart how that could work. You're on space. Where would you hold the box? I don't know. It depends on your age.

56:48Dana Carvey:Dick in a Box was revolutionary, but also I'm on a boat is so dry and silly. It is dry as a boat. I'm on a boat. There's nothing to it but that one idea. What do you do on the boat? I'm on a boat. I told you. I told you people being on boats. Just being on boats. There were a lot of videos at that time where the concept of the video was just they were on a boat and they were doing their song on a boat. We're rich and we're doing good. Yeah, yeah. T-Pain was a great addition. it's always fun when you just throw someone in that out of the blue i think you pan over to him at the beginning like you go yeah that's a laugh and then yeah that's like an old like almost like marx brothers style reveal yeah it's hard to get people we're trying to get people's stuff back in the show and you know they don't know to the last minute unless it's gerardo rivera they're not coming oh my god i mean especially once you start going into the music world like they're on their own schedule everybody in music does whatever they feel like so what about steve martin and he goes what about Geraldo Rivera?

57:48And I go, well, and he goes, he's circling the building. Anytime you say, what do you do? He's circling the building. That was the one I'm supposed to say. I've stolen that one. What about Geraldo? Geraldo was the one that was always circling. Lauren will do that sometimes where he's just like, so-and-so is here, so put them in it. And you're like, okey-do. Steve's coming. Yeah. We did a Laser Cats and it opens with him having dinner with Senator Dodd. Oh, wow. And we were like, yeah, that was definitely who we were thinking for this. Senator Dodd. Yeah, he was around.

58:19Dana Carvey:I think Chris Farley picked him up and threw him around at a party. He had Steve come in a Hollywood minute and stand behind me and just listen to it and drink, sip a drink. Oh my God. And he goes, I want a drink and I want to sip it with a straw. And we're like, okay. Fuck, I love Hollywood. And then he just stood behind me. Steve Martin, my fucking hero. Did he say anything after? At the end, he goes, I did a joke about him. I go, he's in a new movie where he thinks he's cool. Hey, I have my shirt open. I'm Matt Dillon. And then he's standing behind me, and then he taps me, and I go, oh. And then he tells me to leave.

58:51And then he sits down and does some jokes. And are they about you or just whatever? He made fun of me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You gotta. That's the deal. You gotta have a sense of humor about yourself. I'm sort of embarrassed because I didn't love it. Thanks, Andy. I wanted more for Steve, because I love him. We're big guys. We get it.

59:12All right, give something else to him. Give him another couple. I know that you love,

59:16Dana Carvey:I read that you especially had a fond heart for a great day. I do. I do have a great day. Cool video. It has pathos. It's funny. You know, because you want to have a great day, but he's got Coke all over. Yeah. My own works. Thank you for bringing up my own works. I do. I am proud of that one. It came together nice. Yeah. I think it has a, well, it's just, it steps outside all the other ones. It's just so different. That was the. And it's all beautiful. Yes. And it's, a different kind of song for us. It was more musical style. We shot down on Commerce, which is like my favorite street in Manhattan.

59:50Yeah, made it utopian. Yes, in front of the Cherry Lane Theater. We've shot there a few times. We shot this Akhmadinajad one with Fred down there too. I love that street. Anyway. Wait, I forgot to ask about Digman. Oh yeah, that's my show. Digman is a show. By the way, I saw a billboard for it on my way over. It's huge. Already? Yeah. I saw it too. I was super, I was like, hey, it's real. I was thinking of the voice. I rolled down my window and said, interviewing him. and me I was like please fucking let Dana have seen this dude billboards are all that matters is it out already are we promoting it March 22nd okay I think it comes out right then so yes we'll be out that's today Dickman is available

1:00:29Dana Carvey:cause it's so hard to find shit on it's today no but where do you get it oh comedy central comedy central I know old school hey Sandberg Sandberg the 90's called But we're after South Park, so it's the best slot you get. Oh, the best slot in history. Is that your South Park? Yeah. That's good. Oh, this is South Park guy. Hi, how are you? I just shit my pants. I'm three. This kid just fucked me in the ass. I'm like, God damn, is this a real show? I can't believe what they get away with. When I see those clips on Instagram, I go, this is from a real show or is this just a clip they made up? Because it's so fucking filthy.

1:01:07Dana Carvey:I ain't like it in my ass. Megan and Monica. Yeah, they're in print. Hey, guys, South Park guys, Trey and Matt. If you guys ever want to come on the podcast. Beyonce's going to be here. What if they all want to come the same day, though? Andy will come back. I would come back. No, Digman. I just watched it last night. Did you? Oh, yeah. Oh, awesome. They got it to me. Yeah. Digman. He's an archie. Yeah, he's an archaeologist. They call them archies. It's a show set in a world where archaeologists are the biggest celebrities in the world. so like there's like a Met Gala but it's the Arky Gala and everyone's wondering like what museum they're gonna be hired by and it's it's super silly I made it with my buddy Neil Campbell who wrote on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Comedy Bang Bang and stuff and I've been working on it for fucking two and a half years it is how many episodes it takes so long first season's eight and we're hoping there'll be another one yeah it was funny I just watched it last night and there's an assistant archaeologist yes Mitra Juhari who's super funny oh okay I was wondering who that was yeah do you need any if there's a season 2 do you need any guest voices would you guys want to do it yeah we got motherfucking emperor's new groove right here alright I was thinking I can do two things I can do a llama or an invisible man okay I think that sounds the same well let's hear the llama no because they all the llama is look at me and my bad self uh huh uh huh no touchy yeah that was one that was a blast that's a funny movie that was a great one that was a great comic yeah you and Warburton come on this was a solid the poison Cusco's poison he and goddamn Eartha Kitt playing Yzma were so hilarious Eartha Kitt was in that one yeah she's a friend have you seen that movie it's genuinely just like shockingly funny it's funny isn't it I couldn't believe it what year did it come out took me three years 90s what do you mean three years to shoot it oh it's so hard it was mocap Say it again?

1:03:07Motion capture?

1:03:08Dana Carvey:I don't know if it was mo-cap. Did you get it through a general? Did you do a general when he got it? Did he get it through a general? Oh, I snagged it through a general. I had a general at Disney. General meetings are where you go in and they tell you you're good and then nothing ever happens. Correct. I had one a couple weeks ago. They just want to hear it. Would you like to play twins? You should be in movies. You should be in movies. You're both guys in the scene. How would you like to clumps it? the clumps but more clumps the white clumps that's like the Eddie Murphy movie it's called clumps it we all call it when you're more than one part you're clumps it see what they do is they cut tape they let him do four hours of makeup change and then they start the camera again it's like magic once he did it it kind of should have been retired I think because that was then like you're just like how is this possible no one understood how can he possibly one guy's Arsenio sometimes that's true I don't think that's how it's pronounced What other movie is it?

1:04:04Coming to America Just came to me Oh yeah Wait so Emperor's New Groove I'll play Llama And you're But the show Digman is It is funny as shit I was just watching last night Thank you It's Andy Sundberg Come on So yeah and he's got Well that's the I mean not everything You have a brand Not everything you ever do is like We're going hard funny But this one is that It's just jokes We're trying to do as much And it's a good story So you follow it

1:04:26Dana Carvey:Is it PG-13 or a soft R? It was kind of rough It's a little There's the bleeps Do you have all that stuff on there? everything's in but when it airs on network it'll be bleeped the fucks will be bleeped and everything else can air what is that network mean Comedy Central yeah oh so because it's they've got a few in there but it's not overdone no no no we try to sort of parse them out no it's clever but there a couple times I go oh yeah bad word yeah it's not soft nasty but that was that was kind of the idea like we worked together you know on Brooklyn thanks yeah and we loved making Brooklyn but it's NBC.

1:05:02So there were plenty of times where we were like, we were like, just want to make a show where we don't have to cut. Just something borderline gets killed. I've done that before and you go, oh, this isn't even, we got to compete out there. Exactly. Exactly. It's very hard to argue because you're like, who's going to care? Yes. Our hope is that we made something that people in comedy will like it.

1:05:20Dana Carvey:They say that the half hour show, network show is kind of the best schedule for a human being. Well, yours was even harder. Mine was harder than his. He did it live. Mine's a straight sitcom. You were 17 hours a week, right? About 16-5. And once it's like a hit and everyone knows their parts too and no one's stressed, you just show up, smash. The audience is there to love it. Oh, yeah. And you were a single camera, so. Will and Grace got down to a science four-day weeks, three-day weeks. You know, I worked at Radford as a PA. Oh, you did? I worked on Spin City. Oh, Spin City? I can't believe it.

1:05:53Get out of here, Sarge.

1:05:54Dana Carvey:He does fucking thing. Oh, you guys both watch it. Hey, guys, what are we doing here exactly? It's a soft Casey Kasem. God, give me a minute here, Sarge. Come on, Sarge. Give me a minute. I'm Casey Kasem playing my own day fox. In what? Prisoners of War or something? Casualties of War. The worst one to do an impression of no one's thought. But you're doing it with Sean Penn. Yeah. What are we doing? We're going to get this VC gook whore. Get a tattoo. Hey, come on, guys. Get a tattoo. I know it all. Hey, come on, guys. Yeah, man. It's Casey Kasem, basically. Is it really? It's a little lower. No, it's different.

1:06:24But your Casey's good.

1:06:25Dana Carvey:Well, you just take it back a little bit. Come on, Sarge. Don't make the audience think it's easy. Audience. It's not dissimilar. I'll give you that. You gotta go on your tiptoes, open your eyes away. I'm, hey, Doc, this is. Oh my God, I love it. You're not home now. By the way, when I was there though, it was Charlie Sheen. That's actually very good. It was Charlie Sheen? It was Charlie Sheen. It was post Fox. So it was a different vibe. Oh, Spin City. Yeah. Yes. Did you do the sketch Hookers and Blow with Charlie Sheen? Did I do that? Yeah. Were you in it? I don't think I was in that. That was Matt Piedmont wrote that.

1:06:59It was a body shop called Hookers and Blow, spelled differently. And it was Charlie Sheen was the pitchman. Oh my God. And it aired? Yeah. Who played Charlie Sheen? He did. Oh, he did it himself. When he hosted, yeah. Got it, got it, got it. Well, good for him. Yeah, good. By the way, Hot Shots, really good. Hot Shots is funny. It's really funny. All right, what's your wrap up?

1:07:18Dana Carvey:Blizzard Man or Shy Ronnie? Oh my God. It's like a little game. Oh, Shy Ronnie, you got to do with Rihanna. That was the shit. Fuck. She's the coolest. yeah that was kind of one of the sillier things I saw the cool thing about her the Shairani character was just so and her doing it is unbelievable her doing it but now whenever I see her which is not often she sees me and she goes Shairani oh cute like I don't know if she knows my name but I'm happy with what I get unreal everyone loves everyone's in love with Rihanna yeah damn good job jealous alright wrap up questions should we talk about the Oscars I don't know fill in the blanks it's a new game we have yeah oh shit And you can always say pass.

1:07:55Dana Carvey:Okay. Lor Michaels is... My dad. My dad. He never got that. I thought that's what everyone would say. He is kind of everybody's dad. Go to your room. He's 13 months older than me. One time I was... I had been doing pretty well after a couple years, and I did the bit, you know, where you force it and you make your hands touch? He was reaching for his popcorn. Oh, my God. And you're like a meet cute kind of thing. And I was like, oh, look at that. he was like slapped my hand he went I am not your friend and I was like okay yeah sorry sorry Lauren sorry yeah sorry sorry I like Lauren if it says anything like that do you remember any Lauren-isms and we always do this on the show I mean he does the value of water everyone knows that one yeah I mean he always starts things it's that thing you know because it's like that thing and like yeah it's like it's like you know it'd be better if it was like funny it'd be like a really really good show It helps with my bottle up.

1:08:53Dana Carvey:It would help if it was good. This is the last, we have two weeks off. It would help if it was good. A good note, rather a low note. You know, I know that that's all designed to relax us. Emily Spivey, I don't know if you guys know her. She was a writer for a very long time on the show. She used to do a bit in the rewrite table. If I can tell. Where is a rewrite? Is it going to be an 18-hour rewrite? No, not R-rated. Where the phone would ring, or she'd pretend the phone would ring, and she'd pick it up and she'd go, hello? Oh, hey, Lauren. Oh, thank you. Oh, I know. I worked really hard on it.

1:09:27I love you too. Like basically act like he was calling to give her tons of compliments because he never gives them anybody.

1:09:36Dana Carvey:He'll always compliment not when you're really killing a big thing, but like some exit or when you have one line and some cowboy sketch. I thought it was breathtaking. The one time he ever said something overtly nice about something I did in front of everybody was a great day. It was the meeting between dress and air. He was like, can we cut out of that a little faster? Very funny, by the way. And I was just like, he melted to a puddle. And I was like, God, why does he have so much power over us? I know. I'll never forget. Well, you know, he's seen everybody. Exactly. He's seen every American sketch player and every - He knows every move.

1:10:14Somewhat equal to all those people that have been there before. Yes.

1:10:18Dana Carvey:Believe me, Andy Semberg was very, very - All right, Andy, I got to go. I can't answer any of my own questions anymore. About you that I answer them. Okay, fair, fair, fair. Fill in the blank. I'm really bugged by... Bugs. Yeah, that's the right answer. That's true. My dream job is... I have it. Wow. Yeah. Positivity. It's not a bit. Like, I can't believe it. It's like we were talking about. Okay, finish the sentence. I did a Corona commercial with... Snoop. Yeah. Snoop Dogg. I'll tell you one thing about those commercials. When you do them, you're like, oh, it's fucking Snoop. These are funny.

1:10:58This is going to be great. And then you don't realize they're going to air them seven billion times and like make people hate you, even if they like it the first hundred times. But that's, I guess that's, I should have known.

1:11:09Dana Carvey:They're well known. What was your mic drop? There was always a little thing right at the end. You're with him. And then there's something right at the end. You do a little eyebrow thing or something. I'm sure I've seen it. Well, I did a few of them. There's more coming, by the way. God damn it. I know. I sold out. God damn it. I took the check. No, Andy. I have a Fritos one coming out. I turned out so many commercials in the 90s. I regret it to this day. Did you? Getting commerce now is cool. Ryan Reynolds just made 200 million of some gin product. He makes so much money. Yeah. There's nothing wrong with that.

1:11:41Dana Carvey:All that means is freedom to do what you want. It is annoying that he's making so much money and he's good. And seems really nice. You wish he sucked a little bit. Yeah. But instead he's like funny. He has an advertising company, a management company. He's got a phone company. And his movies are all big and you want to watch them. He owns Northern California. I know. He's good. He's the president of the universe. You want to do this one. Fred Armisen is. Oh, man. That's good. Like it's too much, too much talent. My friend. Yeah. But also so good, so funny. just makes me smile every time I see him he was on last week right he's delightful and by the way speaking of no no pushing yeah he never ever is sweaty ever and it's always funny and weird and interesting yeah I could get sweaty sometimes but Fred never would Spade never gets sweaty I'm not too sweaty right no you run it nice and cool and it's always sharp I like that description it's true but you and me we want it we want it yeah we can barely eat sweatshirt bob we're like I got a skill set let me show you my mother.

1:12:50All right, you get one last.

1:12:52Dana Carvey:Kristen Wiig is. Also my friend. And. One of the greatest. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. One of the best. Yeah. When I was doing Regis out there, I was guest hosting and just kind of rehearsing all week. And then she comes in as Kathy Lee with all this stuff. It was like, I was kind of almost starstruck by the meticulous business she had, her energy, she was hypnotizing this other rhythm. it was really interesting to be around that she's kind of like Steph Curry of SNL where you're like she's super quiet and seems kind of just keeping to herself and then all of a sudden you realize she's been fucking working hard and is an absolute beast and ready to unleash and like as soon as that audience is there you're like oh shit I gotta get out of the way oh she has been thinking about this is it okay to mention your wife is a famous musician yeah I love my wife Gina Newsome Joanna Joanna sorry that's okay went to state school Joanna Newsome singer songwriter harp player piano and vocals I listen to some of it so I think that's pretty hip you're both artists yeah she understands she's I mean she's much cooler than me obviously but yeah she seemed incredibly cool she's that we're just what else she says hi she says hi so now just to wrap it up so you're a dad now and so that whole your world has changed yes and now you and your wife are gonna balance this thing with your work yes you have a plan it's hard it's very hard it is it's interesting.

1:14:16Like figuring out when to work, when not to, when, who works, when, where. Yeah. Spade, what do you think? I think you're heading in the right direction. That's my general thought. Spade, do you think you want kids? Yeah. What do you think? I have a daughter and she's here, not here in the house, I kicked her out. Yeah.
