Well, what's your, you got a hot take? I mean, we promised a hot take. It was in the byline. I went, so on the week, well, I didn't, I just went to Gaio Series Party. That's probably the best one.
2:54It's a little late, so it's a little desperate and thirsty to go because it's late. But I went over there. I have my hair blow-dried. Did it look as good as it does now? It looked a little slicker. This is me sleeping on my face for nine hours. What? But I saw a lot of people. Jacob Lorty. You know who that is?
3:19Dana Carvey:Oh, the Frankenstein guy and also the Wuthering Heights guy. Talk about range. Yes, Rosie's favorite. The hottest guy in the world. And he was super tall, so he had that covered. What does this one do? Yeah, big stars. Big star alert. Uh-oh, do yours. All right. People don't know how high-fi this is. Oh, that's someone if you don't like them, if they're not a big star. Well, this is more like if, say, the start of our live podcast, it's global right now. If it ever starts, yeah. Maybe this is my review of the start. I know, so far we've lost one million viewers. Because of our tepid takes. We promised tepid takes.
4:04I've got hot takes.
4:05Dana Carvey:Here's a hot take. shit yeah okay there's it's so in vogue for women and the pressure on women to be so slender that a lot of women's bodies were so slender that their heads look gigantic oh lollipop disease yeah because they get a little of that yeah why do they have to show skin and have their panties on and dresses falling off and the men are just in a tuxedo from 1972 i thought the feminist movement accomplish something no it's celebrating bodies dana you don't get it i know i'm i've teach his own i'm just saying i'm just saying i mean you didn't see conan in you know with this low-cut thing i would like to see him in a in a rhinestone thong that was sort of on my wish list last night how did you know how did you hear about the rhinestone thong because that rumor does about Conan because he wears them in regular life well I'm not gonna cosign that no listen to this so I thought I thought I'll tell you this I thought Emma Stone looked great and I thought her dress I just read today it took 800 hours Heather I mean are these fake numbers 800 who makes that number of it just sounds like she looked gorgeous now right she always looks great that's And she's married to an SNL guy.
5:25Borderline tie-in.
5:28Dana Carvey:Right. He was... Right. What part of SNL was he? I think he's a writer. I think he's a producer. Oh, okay. Well, that's a power couple. Anyway, they were front row and center. Were they... Could they see... Could they see Timothee Chalamet? I know. Shamalam and Ding Dong, who I was about to say, my first outtake, is he's starting to look like a Lordy. those two guys have a similar look well once you go kind of beatles 63 yeah messy forward here oh well yeah a little bit a little bit yeah split screen ruins it um little mustache messy kind of hair moppy toppy a shallow malay and a and a jordy what's his last name jordy oh lordy i think oh lordy yeah that's what every girl says that's what i say when i see
6:22that will get old if it hasn't already you owe me but a chalamet stepped in shit remember it was kind of a blown out of proportion story about ballet no one cares about opera and ballet i
6:36Dana Carvey:think that was he but he was talking to matthew mcconaughey it was kind of like man pulling out those quotes you know all right rad rad rad yeah i think just trying to be funny and shit like who cares but it did sort of blow up because it is a rude thing to say but the funniest part i didn't know misty copeland from the ballet was there last night i thought it would be fisticuffs i thought she would throw down that would have made it a little more interesting yeah you need you need fistfights in general mayhem to kind of trend okay we have someone has said that Delroy Lindo was robbed. I do really like that guy.
7:15Dana Carvey:Was that for Best Supporting Actor for Sinners? Yeah, I do like that guy. Who did win it? What, do I got a photographic memory? What was it supporting? That might have been Sean Penn. Sean Penn also. This person says Sean Penn doesn't deserve it. Sean Penn was at Shea Jay in Santa Monica. Where was Sean Penn? Smoking? New York Times says he was in Ukraine. He's on that Southwest flight again? God damn, that's a hike. I don't think it was Southwest, but he was, you know, I mean, he could have been right next to Timothee Chalamet. He could have hung out with, like, Justin Bieber. I mean, he could have said hello to Delroy Lindo.
7:59Dana Carvey:Instead, he's in Kiev, so he's the coolest. He wins. Dude, maybe he got tired of being called a burnt carrot or whatever they called him last time. Nicky went into him. Because he's got that white hair now, and he's just like, this is not bad. But he's always like, I hope I don't win. I'm angry at the awards. I shouldn't be here. Yeah, and just someone who just has apparently no vanity. Like, he's, hey, Sean, do you want to put some sunscreen on? I'm good, man. You know, it's like, he's the coolest because he doesn't care. I do sort of envy that cool shit they have. Benicio's kind of like that, too.
8:37He doesn't give a fat fuck.
8:38Dana Carvey:They don't give a fuck about these awards shows. But what's happening in Ukraine now? Is there a new Dave & Buster's opening? What's going on over there? Because it feels like I don't see any Ukraine pins. I'm not in the know of what the latest is. Well, it's a little bit off the headlines. There's been another conflict nearby. Yeah, was there a lot of politics last night or not? Because I would kind of dip in and out, even though I'm studying it. Politics, nothing. Oh, yeah. When are we going to host? Some viewer just said, when are we hosting, Dana? That's a tough gig, though. I have to say.
9:11Dana Carvey:No, and to Conan, kudos to Conan. You know, he always comes prepared and he had a good time and he killed it. But you do see how, you know, you're working kind of a corporate date. It's not like a normal, and Conan's working it out in clubs and stuff. And it's just the Oscars. So he's tagging things and keeping them engaged, what he thinks working. You'll like it later, you know. So he kept it really alive. And then the cold opening was really inspired and worked great. I thought that was interesting. Yeah. One of these dudes I know did that. He said I did the cold opening and I directed it, and then I didn't, and then when I saw it, I was like, oh, yeah, it's actually very complicated because going into the movies like Billy Crystal did, I always liked that.
9:54That's one of the best things.
9:55Dana Carvey:Yeah, Billy did that a lot, and this is the, in that spirit. And dressed, is that Amy Madigan? Amy Madigan and Conan actually. That's a hilarious look. Yeah, because Conan can wear, Red hair matches his skin anyway. So he looked very funny. That was, you know, pre-tape City. But the kids running and this, and then they got animated and K-pop. I thought that was clever. It was in the rearview mirror. It's probably hard to do all that. Then they run through. So that's a fake Conan running through? I think so. And then he just pops up. Yeah, he can't turn it around that fast. Yeah. But they were excited to see him.
10:35And here, let me see if I can think of my jokes. I liked.
10:38Dana Carvey:Mm-hmm. Let me see. You've got to have one joke. AI joke I liked when he said, I'm the last human host. It's all AI after this. Because it's going to YouTube. I like the YouTube commercials popping up. That's what we're going to have in a minute, YouTube commercials, which I like. Yeah. And at the very end, if you stayed for the very end, Conan suddenly is in a short film with Jim Downey, our friend, the writer from SNL. Our boss. And he says, you're going to be host for life and takes him down this hallway, kind of like severance into this nondescript office. And then Conan's just all relaxed and then poison gas comes through and they put him in a crematorium and then they say next year it's going to be Mr.
11:21Dana Carvey:Beast. Yeah. Now, Dana, you know if you saw the movies, which I actually didn't. But one battle, that's the end. After another. That's the end of one battle. so i won't say i won't say how it is but when he when downy walked in i was like oh this is a good this is what he's okay so it was operating on other yeah it was a direct frame by frame of the end but they could have gotten out early actually because the oscars were over once downy came in i go oh this is a good idea he's gonna do take him into the office but downy it's great to see if for everyone at home when i got hired he was part of the hiring process he was my writer head writer so my direct boss and i was always trying to impress him jim did you read good good good girls and he's like yeah
12:19Dana Carvey:he would always go in his office because everybody was hounding him i know he would lock himself in his office and schneider would sleep out front come on Come on, come on, open up. Making copies. Making copies.
12:37Dana Carvey:Okay, here's another joke. Ted Sarandos, this is the first time he's been inside a theater. Yeah, and Ted really laughed hard at that. I like Ted laughing at that. You know when he's doing a monologue, and that fucking camera comes, and the guy sits there and goes like this, you go, oh, fuck, am I in the monologue? How am I going to react? I'd be like this. I hate jokes about me. Here's another one. Oh, the F1 joke. Brad Pitt. The plot of the movie is they figure out the way to win is to go faster. It was a nice one. That was funny. It was a nice one. Simple. He pretty much landed very consistently.
13:15What's a pedophile? Oh, I don't know. Maybe I didn't get it. We had a pedophile joke. Pedophile jokes are a tough sell.
13:22Dana Carvey:That's a tough category. Tough category in general. Yeah. I mean, Carlin had a whole album on it, but that's a whole other time. Why can't I read anything I wrote? Oh, could this vintage store be any cuter? Right? And the best part? They accept Discover. Accept Discover? In a little place like this? I don't think so, Jennifer. Oh, yeah, huh? Discover's accepted where I like to shop. Come on, baby, get with the times. Right, so we shouldn't get the parachute pants? These are making a comeback. I think. Discover is accepted at 99 % of places that take credit cards nationwide. Based on the February 2025 Nielsen Report.
14:04It is not hard to destroy a college. Last season, the podcast Campus Files brought you stories of fraternity drug rings,
14:12Dana Carvey:stolen body parts, campus cults, and more. And now Campus Files is back for another season. There's a guy screaming into his phone. He's like, I just saw Charlie Kirk get assassinated right in front of me. Every week is a new episode and a new story. It was so chaotic. It's almost like a university under siege. Listen to and follow Campus Files. Available now wherever you get your podcasts. I just have to tell you, Dana. There's something I'm excited about. Now, you remember we talked about Jury Duty, the show. Oh, yeah. Season one. Yeah. And that one, I saw it on TikTok. And then it was kind of a word of mouth thing.
14:50It blew up. It was funny. And it actually all pulled together, which I was shocked. they pulled that thing together yeah uh and i was like i would will they do it again and they did cool i think that's very cool it was set in the courtroom the first time and uh this is going to be a company retreat hmm yeah yeah jury duty presents company retreat it takes this groundbreaking social experiment out of the courthouse stay with me dana yeah i got it and drops it into the most relatable setting ever. Oh, yeah. Company corporate retreat. And if you've ever survived that awkward team building exercises or a trust fall with co-workers, you know the vibe.
15:33Dana Carvey:Yeah. I mean, this is an inspired idea, I got to say, after jury duty to put it in a company retreat. This season follows Anthony, a real temp hired by Rockin' Grandma's Hot Sauce for their annual retreat. Right there, they should figure it out. Rockin' Grandma's Hot Sauce. Yeah, I know. Except he has no idea the entire thing is staged around him. It's a workplace comedy meets hidden camera. And it's unpredictable. It's authentic. It's so full of heart. The stakes are higher. The laughs are bigger. And it still celebrates the goodness in people. And here's the wild part. Rockin' Grandma's Hot Sauce, they're actually making it.
16:14Dana Carvey:Okay. And the flavors will be available on Amazon. Oh, my God. I wonder if they started that first or if they just made up that name and then it sounded funny. But it's going to get a lot of attention. But, you know, this thing, I'm kind of glad they didn't do it in the courtroom again because someone would figure that out, I would think. Oh, I don't think they could do it in the courtroom. I think the company Retreat is the next best one. It's hard to think of where to do it, but they did a good job. So, looking forward to that. Me too. Streaming on Prime Video, March 20th. oh we did oh i will say a tight trim if you must this is a really fucking lukewarm you're editing the oscars now yeah a hundred percent because it was only three and a half hours it was 340 i think like the longest in history right it could have been i mean the first hour there was probably one big award it was supporting or something but when you get into which farley and i were assigned is if you're barely making the Oscars which we were it was short film and maybe animated something or animated shorts I mean honestly they should either do this sounds rude do it like the Emmys where they do it the night before and do some of these categories to whip it into a two and a half hour show more time maybe even for the speeches but if that's what people like best but man those some of those categories yeah they're just so specific they had best focus movie best in focus movie yeah and there were like 19 people on stage oh the best movie that stayed in focus yeah and there was like i didn't even know it was a new category and they showed out and it was like regular focus and then extra extra and they got the award and there was 20 people on the stage and their moms came up and that was about a 15 minute segment you know so yeah i did like when she said all the women stand up even though they didn't really show a good shot of the front of like all the girls standing up were you there did you hear that i yeah the the thing that went to my brain maybe i'm from another era but i said could would could a dude could a guy say all the men stand up and then would you stand up just the men stand up yeah well i would stand up and they go you count for two with all your alpha oh my god all that alphaness and all I'll just, yeah, DHT, you name it.
18:43If I host, I'm going to say all the men stand up and now flex. Yeah.
18:47Dana Carvey:All the men stand up and now take your pants off and your shirts and your suits off and drop for 10. By the way, Channing Tatum looked like he was melting. Am I crazy when he was up there? It was hot up there. Maybe that's a rude comment. I like Channing Tatum, but I thought. No, there was a lot of moisture on people. Something was going on. Yeah. Okay, what else can I tell you? I can't read my own writing. Well. Take them more. Oh, when they take a movie and turn it scary, I think that's a good trick in a movie. Like if we ever did a Grown Ups and it's all like fun and games and then there's like a murder.
19:23Yeah. And then we're like running and we're stuck somewhere at the lake house. That's always kind of cool that you're taking. I think that's, was that what Weapons was? Or that what Sinners was? Where you don't know where it's going?
19:36Dana Carvey:Yeah, yeah. it doesn't start out as dark as it gets and then with weapons it's sort of lightly weird comedy throughout you know but just on the edge i mean basically i thought the only light movie kind of was f1 i mean all the movies were kind of dark and i talked to brad pitt about that last night and i said next time you make f1 have something kind of dark happen and he said that's a good plan I go, thanks, Brad. Cliff Booth will be there. You think he'll be up next year for Cliff Booth? Spin off of Once Upon a Time. What'd that guy say to you, Spade? I like when he tells Bruce Lee, well, you're not fighting tough guys.
20:22And then he has to beat his ass.
20:24Dana Carvey:I think you're, to Bruce Lee, I think you're a little man with a big mouth. And you wouldn't be nothing but a stain on Cassius Clay's trunks. Hey, how about we have a little fight? Best out of two. Nothing to the face. who first gets put on that butt. That's a great plan, Kato, and he takes off the hairpiece. So that movie wasn't nominated this year, but that's a masterpiece. But let's give a little love to Paul Thomas Anderson because he'd never won before, and I looked at it, Magnolia, There Will Be Blood, Phantom Thread, and many more. He didn't win for There Will Be Blood? Nope. Nominations up the wazoo.
21:03Dana Carvey:Fucking asshole. But he won. He had a great tuxedo. So he's very, he comes across kind of humble and sort of shy, and he makes these kind of intense movies. I wonder how tough he is on set. You know what I mean? A lot of these directors are fucking tough. But he whipped out a good performance. I saw the female lead, Infinity Chase. I saw her out somewhere. Stunner. Well, yeah. Yeah, I mean, anyone can have a temper. I think when Michael B. Jordan won, they cut away to Conan because I think Paul Thomas Anderson grabbed him, tried to hold him from going on the stage because he thought Leonardo DiCaprio should have won, and then they escorted him out.
21:55I like people that don't know what part of this is true. Anna Wintour came out. I know you were excited about that, but I felt like maybe no one outside that building knew her, but in the general public, she looked like she had my wig on from the Bench Warmer sequel, which we haven't done yet.
22:12Dana Carvey:Well, it's the coolest haircut in a sense that this is Anna Wintour, our tower, yeah, fashion, that it just covers all the way like this. It's like she's in a little tiny cave, and you just see her eyes. Like the woman in The Incredibles with the black hair. And Anne Hathaway looked great. First of all, I guess Anna, if she comes out, the idea came out to the song Vogue, funny, gave her jokes. I think she had two jokes. They both seemed to work in my sophisticated ears. And Anne Hathaway looked great again. Yeah, it was a good hang. It was a good hang. And in the in memoriam, it sounds rude, but is anyone alive still?

The Great Waldo Pepper. and hi David yeah they should have highlighted I didn't know Redford was this year I guess he has to be okay here's some good news oh what about Norm Macdonald oh Norm Macdonald brought out two feathers to discuss my hair is Oscar worthy and as heard the last two episodes of Cinephobe they talk about Dickie Roberts and Tommy Boy back to back no and we're also rocking salon quality hair am i wrong uh well define salon because i i was not at a salon this is all me do you remember when i did my first commercial parody no chia head was my first one but that was the first one i wrote remember chia head and then they really made it and then there's one called salon because it was based on vidal sassoon salon finish salon shine and it was just about if you say the word salon enough it makes your hair better it was so fucking dumb and then they never re-ran it and i was so livid i did one too some kind of hair weird commercial parody with phil those are good ones for the show it's a lot of jeans we had bad idea jeans which i loved three-legged jeans then they did mom jeans jeans is a funny one okay here is someone says that sinners should have won sinners could have been movie yeah best director one battle after another was overrated hmm whoa shots fucking fire Wow I was thinking maybe sinners would have won so well it's maybe a coin toss at that point and again I'm I just I'm always looking for sorry, senior alert.
26:38Dana Carvey:I'm looking for a Master and Commander. You know, epic, historical epic with Russell Crowe. Twice off ships. I'm looking for, you know... Was Master and Commander good? Incredible movie. I love it. Good, you don't get it. Ships in the 19th century trying to outdo each other. Oh, who's the top three Oscar hosts of all time? This is us engaging. Okay. Top three off the top of my head. We've got to have Conan. He's our buddy, and he's great. He's done twice. Well, what are you going to throw? Don't throw Kony under the bed. No, I'm not. I just wanted to be in point-counterpoint. I have to rough you up a little bit.
27:19I would say Billy Crystal because he was so good for so long.
27:22Dana Carvey:And he did it so long, and I was there sitting right next to Tom Cruise when he came out as Hannibal Lecter. They rolled him out to the— Oh, that was a big one. Yeah. That was smart. That was a good big one. So he did it like eight times. Conan's only two right now. Was Carson in the 70s kind of? Or Bob Hope, you know, Bob Hope in old timey days did it a lot. But I think, I kind of think that Billy Crystal introduced that kind of level of entertainment. Like he puts himself in movies and it was like much more of a big production. He came out on a horse, you know. Yeah. I think Billy Crystal. well i do like i think chris rock did it i like him i like uh steve martin did he do it with martin short um he did it with alec baldwin i believe oh really can't believe my memory i can't picture him not doing that without martin short i know so yeah those guys i guess your mind goes that who did it the most times you know yeah um is it not conan next year because of youtube or is it undecided um i think it's undecided i'm assuming well he's he's got two billion youtube followers so it might be financially a good thing but i think that conan is on a roll it seems like he owns it right now and he should do it let's do buzzing around and then we can and so and then i have something for after that.
28:56Dana Carvey:Okay. Where's my buzzing around? This is... I like how people go, oh, it's not as smooth as normal. No, this is exactly how shitty it is. We try not to plan it.

35:20Dana Carvey:I did nine minutes of the characters talking, and then we did a seven-minute commercial. That's half the podcast. And we're supposed to engage with fans. We're live to Putin. No, Biden and Trump are still talking during that commercial. Joe. Hey, let's do... They asked if you could do the earthquake Japanese... Coming to the Oscars. Oh. Wait, what is he doing? We'll be watching the Oscars. Oh. Okay, Dana, if there's an earthquake in Japan during the Oscars...

36:16Oh shit, something's going on.
36:44It's over that fast. That was good.
36:47Dana Carvey:Well, I was holding the left. He's okay now, though, right? He's okay.
36:58What an idiot. You're off screen. Something happened.
37:02Dana Carvey:I don't know. Now it's just you on the screen. Yeah, the way I planned it. Woo. I got to come in this box over here. I got to come in this box. You guys got me excited. Oh, no. The millions of people online are freaking out. They're like, oh, my God. Everything went haywire. I know. We don't have to get off yet. We're still talking, right? I'll tell them. They're asking about the Busboys trailer drop today. Busboys trailer. Dana, I got to get you to watch it. I'll send it to you. Okay. I'm just going to be on the... Yeah, are you going to figure out how to get back on? I'll just keep vanishing.
37:37Dana Carvey:I wouldn't know how to get back on without... What did you do? What happened? I don't know. I like live tech problems. This thing fell down, and then it went up, and I disappeared. Was it a real earthquake? Yeah, it was. And it was a real Japanese person. Oh, I have to go out and come back. Okay. Yeah, I have to leave your house. Be incredibly entertaining. Okay. Okay, I'll tell about the Busboys. So we just put the trailer up. Now people are asking about that. Okay, we put the trailer up. Busboys comes out in theaters. You can go buy a ticket now if you go to Busboys Movie. That's the website.com.
38:15Busboys Movie. We're in some theaters. We posted the trailer this morning, and now we're already filling up the theater, so I love it. So if you want to go buy a ticket, go to Busboys Movie and watch the trailer. And it's a little R-rated and offensive, but sometimes that's the way we like it, right?
38:35Dana Carvey:Okay, I'm back. Oh, good. That was my commercial. Oh, I leaned on you. I was talking about it. But we'll make you watch the trailer, and then we'll talk about it. I got excited, and then this is where people are worried. Japanese man is perfectly fine everything's fine we listen when you do bits like this and you make a hilarious omelet you break some eggs exactly you pulled out your Wi-Fi your Fiji cord your zip check module your squazzo flaws you're actually no one no one would believe this you're smarter than me and you also know more about this tech than I do I have had to thank God I don't know how to do any of this well it's because I don't have someone right next to me helping me so i'm not like crippled by just always being helped so i had to figure it out i'm my own tech person don't be take that out take that part out take it out what he said it's too mean well look at all those movie stars in the audience how many of them have people helping them with tech issues or is you know chalamet i'm sorry kardashian girlfriend i can't get the wi-fi I working.
39:46I like Chalamet. I like his ping pong movie. Oh, I saw Mr. Wonderful. You know what he was wearing? Heather will love this. He's wearing, you might not know this, but he bought, he invested in trading cards, right? So I think he bought a Kobe LeBron or a Kobe Jordan signed card. Yeah. And he had it around his neck. That's what he was wearing? That$10 million card. Oh, really? And he was horrified. Hilarious. I go, I wouldn't wear it. You know how fast someone ripped that off your neck?
40:18Dana Carvey:He needs to go away. It's cool. I like that expression. He needs to go away. Heather says he needs to go away. That's a great way to look at everything. I ran into Travis and Taylor last night. They were there at the party? Oh, Sydney Sweeney does her own tech? These fucking comments, don't read them anymore. Oh, because she's... I don't want to hear that she's smarter. Because she's from Spokane, Idaho. She's a mountain girl, boy, man boy, whatever. Speaking of which, you know who looked great last night? Zendaya. Thank you. Thank you. Wasn't she a stunner? Yeah, she looked cool. Let me see who else looked cool.
41:00Demi Moore. I will say.
41:02Dana Carvey:Demi Moore, I love that she had kind of this camouflage, plants, right? So it's like she was looking over some plants. Is that what it was? Yeah, I thought it was cool. She just had a big bush. You know, I will say that. I know. I got to speak of it. I liked Demi Moore's outfit the best. Not saying Demi Moore, but if they change the name next year to the Ozempic Olympics, it might have the same effect. Because I've heard men and women are just microdosing OZ. And it's just like a new thing. They're like, I just want to lose a couple pounds. I just want to lose a little bit of muscle, bone, and tissue.
41:44It's getting in my way.
41:45Dana Carvey:It's in the peptide family, and there's 18 new peptides coming out because Robert Kennedy Jr. wanted to release them. Do I need peptides? They'll take your brain younger. If you have an injury, they'll heal you. Please jack me up. Up or off? No, go ahead. Dana. Why? Dana Michael Carvey. I was channeling David Phineas Spade. And your sister is a great musician, Phineas. Kate Spade? No, not Kate Spade. Oh, I was Billie Eilish in that scenario? My mother's name was Billie. Good night. Mm-hmm. What other big headlines are going on? Peptides are all the rage. Everyone's taking Ozempic for their brain and every other thing.
42:40Dana Carvey:In summary. Well, I think the trend is this, okay? Yes. So we got AI taking all the jobs, all right? We got Ozempics, GLPs, and peptides making everybody real thin. So it's going to be a bunch of incredibly skinny people with no job, just wandering around and being so lost they lose language. They'll just be on the beach. Yeah. Yeah. They lose muscle, fat, and language. Yeah. And skills. I know people that are huffing. You remember people used to huff paint? Huff paint? Now they're doing poppers and it's not helium. What is it? I'm closing with these. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, that's...
43:27I forgot the name. They're not... Yeah. They're ripping sniffers. I sound like a cop and they're ripping snippers. Are you on blackies? Yellow jackets? Bing bongs? Pop tarts? Uppers? Downers? Greenies? Beanies?
43:44Dana Carvey:Do sunglasses make the cool factor go up? You look cool. I look cool in that commercial. You look like Sean Penn. Yeah. Oh, wait. Here we are. Indian man. Let's break the worldwide web. Indian man in an earthquake. Oh, boy.
44:07Yelling at the elk out of the cell.
44:16All right.
44:17Dana Carvey:Are you reading a comment that I'm canceled? No, I'm reading people asking questions. Are those people? I can't see any. Are those people? Okay. says Dana yelling at Dana Carvey trying out for chips you mean the motorcycle TV show if Sean Penn can go to Ukraine you can make another Joe Dirt movie earthquakes are everywhere today you know it's funny this is a new thing thank you Heather that's good you don't have to break your arms she's trying to show me in our right yeah fucking and she's been sending me messages when people say I've heard people because in the news about about drones or attacks, they're like, people sort of get cocky and they go, I work at Zara and it's such an American company.
45:06I feel like we might get bombed. And I'm like, I think you're okay. You know, people think that their thing is so, like such a huge target. Like a target. Yeah, it might be like a port or it might be a bridge, but you go, I don't know if it's going to Zara. But I mean, the Oscars, I could see why they'd have extra security because it would be such a great fuck you to, if we lost, you know, the most important people in the world. Celebrity. But it would be like a very American thing, like a Super Bowl.
45:38Dana Carvey:That would be, if just aliens came down and all those people were taken to another planet in that room, how long would it take to bring new actors? If everyone in that room just disappeared, now what? Yeah, how long would it take? And I'm asking the people out there, How long would it take to replace all that talent in America? How many people are waiting in the wings? It would up the chances for Busboys to win Best Movie next year. What if Busboys still didn't get in after all those people disappear? Look, you can bet on anything, Pauly Market. I'm going to say right now that David Spade is going to get nominated for an Oscar for his work in Busboys.
46:25Dana Carvey:for my rat tail wig in Busboys. Yeah, I'm not sure. I'm going to show you the trailer after this, and we're going to sit in a room. I'm going to drive out there and show it to you on my Instagram. And then it's in probably 50, 100 theaters, so. You should show it at the end of this. Oh, I should show it. People are asking. 50 theaters. You know, we'll show it. I don't know if we can show it here. We can show it when it goes on, when we post it. All these rules of what you can show. Well, I don't know if I know how to do it. That's how stupid I am. You can go right now to busboysmovie.com and watch the trailer or my Instagram.
46:55and then it's boys instagram yeah it's busboys movie though can you see it on youtube yeah i think so oh no yeah sure sure geez busboys movie is the website heather's looking right now is this movie being hidden from the public or something i know i don't know we we honestly don't know what we're doing we put our poster i forgot like millions of hits okay you just go to YouTube oh busboys official trailer okay good okay great oh that's on oh it's on Theo's yeah going Theo's thing YouTube channel YouTube channel yeah okay okay good you'll see my rat tail all right so go to that and then we're almost done here right Dana what do you want to talk about anything I think so
47:45Dana Carvey:I'm just excited about busboys millions of views for the trailer millions of people saw the poster and now 85 000 people shared it on the instagram that's a lot for i don't want to jinx it but i'll just say this when's the last time there was a a really really kind of big well like a bit silly comedy like just a just a con it's like a 90s movie in a sense It's like just trying to be funny. Or does it have any lesson in it? The lesson is, I mean, we're buddies in it. It's just a buddy comedy. We're busboys. We're kind of losers. Sort of typical. We work in sewage. Lovable losers go on an adventure.
48:35Theo was hit by a car at a young age, so he's kind of off.
48:39Dana Carvey:A little off. and then at the end I don't want to give it away but this is my guess is at the end they're offered waiter jobs and they become waiters and they're super happy. You didn't read the script already did you? No I wrote the script. That's funny you think that. That's funny. Well when you're a busboy you want to become a waiter because that's where the money is and I was a busboy I don't make movies about it and my girlfriend leaves me for a waiter and I'm like we gotta to just be busboys for a couple days, then we'll be waiters. It's so easy. And then it's harder than we thought. Okay.
49:14Dana Carvey:So I'm guessing the plot? No, and then it's so many twists and turns, Dana. This movie is like Inception. This movie is like Avatar. It's so many. And any time during the movie, are you cradling Theo's head and you're slapping his face going, they're on their way, dude. Just hang in, busboy. Hold in there. Don't go to sleep. Yeah. That's about 20 minutes of the movie in the middle. Do you ever scream at him, at Theo, and point at him, and you're out in a desert alone, you scream at him, plant your foot, and go, don't you quit on me, Eddie? Yeah, I go, don't you quit on me. And then I go, actually, we do all the most typical things.
50:00But it's R-rated, so that's very enticing.
50:05Dana Carvey:R-rated? Yeah, it's slightly offensive, but not really. But, you know, it's sort of like old school when you grew up and you go to the theater with your stupid friends and watch a movie. It's a small budget, so don't look for big fireworks. Funny doesn't cost money. People spend so much money on comedy movies, and you can make an incredible laugh for, like, a nickel. Fools. Okay, what's that message? Courageously, I'll read this. David. if someone had to pay a nickel for this show they wouldn't that's the funniest part they go i love your podcast would you pay a nickel for it no you're cordially invited on prime was to was so awesome what are you what's that well it says was that something we did you read that heather what does that mean yeah someone just was telling r-rated movies are back yeah let's do it oh richie ricky's to nicky they like oh santino was in that oh and i just golf with santino they were just making a point yeah r-rated movies are fun i think if it was on a streamer great if it's in theaters great this one's in the theaters for now and then it'll go to video well eventually everything sits on the metaphorical library shelf like yeah you'll be able to you'll be right next to gone with the wind and yeah what oh oh with that one yeah well what about neil was he at the oscars is that the question oh yeah was neil at the oscars i think so he was part of a documentary that got nominated.
51:32Dana Carvey:I don't know if his documentary won. Yeah. Nealon was there for reels. You see all the documentary people screaming in the back every time they mentioned documentary. That was a good show if they did that. Because it really got attention. Yeah, Kona threw them. Jimmy Kimmel accidentally was there. He wasn't the host. He shouldn't have been there. There was a big mess up. Yeah, they should have told him ahead of time and then they gave him that little segment. I mean, that's just bad form. And they were, he was like, everyone's like, dude, you're not hosting. God. Why are you here, Alright, anybody else good at the parties?
52:07No, it was just everyone from the Oscars. But I swear, the whole point was to talk to Chris Rock about something for the summer. He never showed up. And then I saw Nikki Glaser, of course. My buddy from the Caesars shows. And she came when I left. I'm such a colossal puss. I stayed up all the way till 12. Heather's baffled. I stayed at this thing till 12.
52:31Dana Carvey:Must have been a hell of a party. It was just getting going. I felt like I was in some weird freak off. But it was really just every, you know, guy who's serious, great party. It's super fun. I took a picture in the picture room. Thirsty. And then they bring you back. Hey, we'll get a picture for I don't know what. I don't think they released it. Hey, guys, one more, guys, okay? Hey, guys, real quick. That's you at the SNL 50th. You're like, New York Magazine. Me and Bill Hader and Dan Aykroyd skipped that little shindig. No, the fucking New York Magazine photo shoot. Oh, that one where I was with Molly Shannon, my best friend.
53:13Yeah.
53:14Dana Carvey:And I stole this jean jacket from that shoot. That's all I have to wear. Yes, and Marcello is mad at you. And quickly, Marcello did do Sebastian again. And then Sebastian was there last night, too. I should have asked him. Yeah, yeah. It was funny. It was. And Harry Styles then does Sebastian. and the way he did it was really funny because you don't expect it. I didn't see that part. He was playing very kind of shy, straight guy in some of the other sketches and then in that one he got to unload it and it was actually... Oh, did he get into it? Made me laugh really hard. Oh, that's a funny idea.
53:41Dana Carvey:And of course, Marcelo is in the pocket. He did another four-foot vertical leap over somebody. His physicality is amazing. Yeah. Yeah. All right, we'll wrap up and then... Thanks for coming on. we're going to start our regular podcasts in five minutes. Thanks, everybody. This was a good test run. This will never air. No one will ever see it. We understand now. It's supposed to be interactive, and we want to see what you're saying. We couldn't really. We'll figure that out. We have to get a zip drive cord. Okay, people say buh-bye. Very Don Felder. That must be you. Dana could be lead guitarist for the Eagles.
54:21Good job. And that's it. Keep doing it. We like it. and testing one, too. Thank you for coming on. Yeah, now they're just getting there cramming it in. Okay, Dana, it's nice meeting you. I will see you around the campus.
54:36Dana Carvey:Yeah, I'll be over in about 10 minutes. Okay.
