0:01

Hi, this

0:04

is Larry David. I've been asked to say

0:06

that I'm going to be on the show

0:08

later, so I'm complying

0:11

with that request. Yeah,

0:13

welcome to, what is this?

0:16

I don't even know what I'm on here. What

0:18

is this? Smart. Right.

0:21

Smart. Right. Smart.

0:23

Right. Smart. Right.

0:27

Hi, everybody. Jason,

0:36

I love that you're still here in town. I didn't

0:38

know you were going to be here in a bit

0:41

long. I am working remotely this week, yes, from Los

0:43

Angeles, where it's got New York weather

0:45

today. It's nice and rainy. I

0:47

know. I love it. It's

0:49

a nice rain. Worrying rain. Do you guys like weather, or

0:51

do you love the Southern California, 75 and 70? I'm

0:54

not single, so I don't know where

0:56

this is going. Hey, guys,

0:58

what's your favorite season? Hey,

1:00

do you like weather? Come over here real quick. Can I talk to

1:02

you for a second? Yeah,

1:05

it's nice. I prefer it. Well, it's

1:07

very Chicago-y. Yeah, but you would like 75 and breezy

1:09

365 days of the year? No.

1:14

Yeah, I don't like the heat, so that's an issue.

1:17

I don't mind it. You wouldn't mind some snow and

1:19

some rain, would you? That's what I'm saying. I actually

1:21

enjoy this. I think I've told you this before. I

1:23

live in such a snow. I grew up in such

1:25

a snowy... well, not really that

1:27

snowy, but cold to the extent that this

1:30

morning dropping the kids to the bus, it was raining and stuff,

1:32

and I saw this one road. Isn't that

1:34

great, Sean? How he just takes them just to the bus stop.

1:36

Can't take them all the way to school like some of us.

1:39

I don't live in the valley, so anyway,

1:42

I see

1:46

a road that's going up off Beverly Glen,

1:48

like really steep little side road. I had

1:50

this in my old house, like, boy, man,

1:52

that's going to be tough when it gets

1:54

icy. It doesn't get icy. No.

1:57

So your brain just immediately... My

2:00

old house when I was gonna buy it I thought like

2:02

fuck how am I gonna get up this thing when it

2:04

ices? And I'm like, no it doesn't get ices. Never ice,

2:06

that's incredible. I know. By the way, sir

2:08

go ahead, Shawn, you were gonna say something but uh... You go.

2:11

Well I was just gonna say, because I realized as I'm talking,

2:13

I did one of those, another mistake, I

2:15

got one of those emails and it had the thing

2:17

there and had like reviews buried in the email. I

2:19

opened it up and then it has like a couple

2:21

about the podcast. One of them was one star and

2:23

it said, just we'll only get one hour to speak

2:25

a week because I just wouldn't shut up. And I'm

2:28

like... I wanted to... You

2:30

gotta appreciate it. I'm giving this guy satisfaction

2:32

but at the same time I'm thinking like,

2:35

it's free. Right? Yeah. He didn't

2:37

pay anything for it. Right. I could turn it off.

2:40

Yeah. But he's implying that he would gladly pay a

2:42

little bit to shut you up a lot. I guess

2:44

so. And or it

2:47

made him so mad this thing he's getting

2:49

for free that he went online and

2:51

typed out a message. Gave the

2:53

podcast one star. He's got time. But Willie, don't read

2:55

that. You wanna read that. I don't read that. I

2:58

do it for you guys. I'm out here.

3:00

You want me on that wall. You need

3:02

me on that wall. But it's a specific

3:05

subset of our listeners that actually take the

3:07

time to write something

3:09

not so nice. Is

3:14

it a full representation of our audience? I don't know.

3:16

I don't know. It was very hostile towards me. We

3:18

take it under advisement though. Yeah. We take

3:20

it under advisement. So I'm gonna shut up. Well,

3:23

don't do that. No, don't do that. What

3:26

he's saying is he likes you at an eight. He'd love

3:28

you at a five. No, no, no. He wants me at

3:30

a zero. I

3:33

love that you're disliked and just don't listen. I get it. I

3:38

was chatting with Will very briefly this morning.

3:41

You guys talked before we talk? Not

3:44

usually. You guys running over

3:46

bits? Okay,

3:49

so listen. So you set me up when it's season.

3:51

And I texted her. And Jay, I texted you a

3:53

lot. A lot less. I was like, I think I

3:56

reached my text limit with Jason. What last night?

3:59

Last night or two nights ago? Wait, let me look here.

4:01

I don't see any text from you. Yeah, I was like,

4:03

I don't see any text from you. Oh,

4:05

wait. No, we were texting back and forth. Oh, about

4:07

Scotty. Yeah, that's got

4:09

you. No, that wasn't a lot. Yeah.

4:12

But Did you hear about Scotty shot? Or

4:14

4:17

4:19

4:26

to do with the weekend to take about the weather. Jay.

4:29

He's tech avail. LA. Yeah. He's just

4:31

ordered a box of glow sticks from

4:33

Amazon for the weekend. No,

4:37

I wanted to tell you. So I

4:39

was eating breakfast. I walked past the

4:42

bathroom and this

4:45

is the craziest thing. Scotty loves peanut butter.

4:47

What is wise my sound going out? Oh,

4:49

can you hear? There we go. Okay, go

4:51

ahead. Hang on. Sorry.

4:53

Let me remind you where you were. So Scotty loves peanut butter.

4:55

Go ahead. Right. By

4:59

the way, no, this is really interesting.

5:01

Do you think that this would fit

5:03

into the breaking news category? Absolutely. Did

5:06

you guys find each other on the PB and J

5:09

freak site? Well,

5:12

that's fun because I love jelly. Where's

5:15

5:28

8:07

I can have a meal. That's

8:09

what I'm saying. And relax. That's what

8:11

I'm saying. You can't eat with them. That's

8:14

your fault, probably, or Ashley's, right? You

8:17

fed them and now they don't forget

8:19

that. No, she started feeding them from

8:21

the table. It's all her fault. I

8:25

gave her a dirty look, but she did it. And

8:27

now, why don't you make her eat

8:30

outside with the dogs? I'll teach her and

8:32

she'll never do it again. I'm telling you,

8:34

I take snacks into my bathroom. I

8:36

do. Right? Because of the

8:38

dogs? Yeah, because of the dogs.

8:40

That's what I'm saying. So somebody, yeah, you can

8:43

relate. Larry, I'm so glad you're finally here. We

8:45

just finally made your deal. It took so

8:47

long. I know. What do you mean? Your

8:50

business affairs was just, I guess, was

8:52

your agent just beating us up? What

8:54

are you involved in business affairs? We're kidding. You're

8:57

not going to pay for this. Oh, you were

8:59

joking. By the way, I get

9:02

that a lot. A lot of surprise. Oh, sorry. It

9:05

was humor? I really sneak up that, folks. Check,

9:15

you're sick. What

9:17

the fuck? You talk about

9:19

Sean's appearance on Curb this year. Wow, I was

9:21

going to get there. I haven't seen it yet.

9:23

Has it been? We have to. All

9:26

right. So speaking of making deals, you made a Sean Hayes

9:28

deal and got him on the show. Yeah.

9:31

And, and it's a long time coming. Do you

9:33

have notes? Be honest. Yeah, be honest.

9:37

I'm going to be as honest as I can. Yeah.

9:41

He was fantastic. I don't know. Really?

9:43

I bet he was really fine.

9:46

Listen, he was no fantastic. Thank

9:48

you. He played a lawyer and

9:51

you believe every, you believe this guy was a

9:53

lawyer and he did. He had to do a

9:55

scene where he wakes up in the morning. It

9:57

was like Gene Hackman from the French can. the

10:03

acting display of him getting up

10:05

in the morning. The whole deal.

10:07

I was like, my mouth dropped.

10:10

I was in love. I added

10:12

wiping my eyes. Just wiping your

10:14

eyes. Did you start with a

10:17

little bit? A little bit. Which

10:21

Sean, Sean has the worst sleep hygiene I imagined

10:23

of the four of us here. So that must

10:25

have, you had to dig deep. Did you study

10:27

people sleeping? How'd you do it? I

10:30

watched hours of tape of just

10:32

people sleeping with people without that

10:34

weren't wearing the mask. Right?

10:36

But that was one of the, I don't know.

10:38

I curb has been one of my favorite shows

10:40

forever and ever. And I loved being on it.

10:42

I was honored to be asked. I was honored

10:44

to do it with you. And on the last

10:46

season, nonetheless. Yeah. Will, did you

10:49

ever get on that show? No, I

10:51

was never asked. Yeah. Me neither. Not one. Larry

10:53

said to me, Larry, you remember this? Like about

10:55

a year ago I ran into him and Larry

10:57

said, Hey, you should be on the show. He

10:59

did. And he goes, how come you, he goes,

11:01

how come you were never on

11:03

curve? I said, first

11:06

of all, I said, well, cause I think I'm too tall. And

11:08

then I said, and

11:11

then I said, well, it's your show. You never asked me. That's

11:13

why. Yeah. It is true. Just

11:17

about everybody in Hollywood has either been on that

11:19

show or law and order. And, and

11:22

uh, not us. Although Willie

11:24

you've done a lot in order, but I would

11:26

say this now, now I take

11:28

pride in the fact that I wasn't now it makes

11:30

it more exclusive club. I'm like the

11:33

Marty Scorsese of never winning the best Oscar

11:36

for directing. Yeah. Or Susan Lucci. Sure.

11:40

Well, it does sound like, I will say it

11:42

does sound like a really, from what I've heard

11:44

from my friends that have been on the show,

11:46

that it's like one of the greatest experiences. Uh,

11:49

it's like up there with like Saturday Night

11:51

Live. Like it's just an incredible group and

11:53

you're improvising. And I think it's, I

11:56

think it's the improvising actors really love

11:58

to improvise, but I'll bet you. you've

12:00

had some that have been like, forget it.

12:02

I will sink in that atmosphere. Do not,

12:04

I'm not coming on. Yes, not

12:06

many, but there have been a few. Yeah.

12:09

Who, who really couldn't, uh, what

12:12

do you do about those who say, Oh yeah,

12:14

great. No, I love improvising when they come on

12:16

and they're just horrendous. What do you, what, how

12:18

do you, who has a conversation with them? You

12:20

are the director. What you

12:22

mean somebody who we've asked to do it to

12:24

do it. And they clearly are way over their

12:27

skis with improvisation. Do you, do you do a,

12:29

okay guys, let's take a quick five. It's only,

12:31

it's only happened. It's only

12:33

happened a couple of times in

12:36

the, um, in the show where.

12:40

People were trying to be

12:42

funny. Right. Right. Right. And

12:44

that's like the worst. And that's a

12:46

hard note to give. What's, what does that sound like? Do

12:48

you, do you pull this out? It sounds like don't I

12:51

hear the note. Yeah. Don't try

12:53

to be funny. That's shit. Wow. Yeah. Don't

12:55

do it. Got it. One

12:58

of your great cast members, the fantastic, the

13:00

incredible Vince Vaughn, who I just think the

13:02

world of, he gave me a great, a

13:04

great note once when I was trying to

13:06

improvise during a job with him,

13:08

we've done a couple of movies together. He

13:11

was doing something genius. And then I

13:13

said something and he just stopped. He

13:15

just looked at me and he said, do you think that's helping?

13:21

And I thought it was part of the, of the,

13:23

of the, of the dialogue, right? The improv was not

13:26

a character. Yeah. It was Vince saying to Jason, shut

13:28

your mouth and let me do my thing. What

13:30

a good note. What a gut punch.

13:33

But Larry, thanks for being here today. Hey,

13:35

Sean, do you have an

13:37

agenda you're trying to get? I just want to

13:39

ask him a question. I haven't even got to

13:41

the point yet that I, that I feel so

13:45

bummed out that I, yeah. Cause I would

13:47

have, I would have loved that environment so

13:49

much. And Larry, it's not over.

13:51

It's not over. Larry, I'm going to

13:53

fucking, I

13:56

mean, I run into Gary on the, to Larry on the

13:58

golf course. I keep calling him Gary. That's. That's why I

14:00

run into something

14:02

to do. I run a Larry on the golf

14:04

course before and I've never been able to say

14:07

it except for the one time when he asked

14:09

me where I haven't been on. I was like,

14:11

man, I really went. And it is one of

14:13

my true regrets. I was like, that's an environment

14:15

I feel like I would have really, you would

14:17

have liked it. I like to fuck around. But

14:19

anyway, so Larry, welcome to the podcast. Welcome to

14:21

our show. Yeah. How do you

14:23

feel at

14:25

one to 10? How do you feel today about being here

14:27

right now? Um, before

14:31

I ever do anything at any show

14:33

ever, I always regret

14:35

that I said yes. And

14:38

I feel that way today. We're

14:40

going to get you to the other side of that by

14:42

the time we're done. Okay. Or not. But are you good

14:44

about saying no? Or are you terrible? Do you say yes?

14:46

Cause you don't want to, you don't want to displease people.

14:49

No, I'm, I'm, I'm good about saying no.

14:52

Yeah. Good. That's a great quality. That's good.

14:54

I mean, what, will

14:56

we had a friend who told us once, look, if you

14:58

don't want to do it tomorrow, right? Someone

15:00

said, yeah, in a few months, you know, and

15:02

you're like, sure. Yeah. No, the better thing. If

15:05

you don't want to do it tomorrow, say

15:07

no today. Yeah. You know, even if it's a couple

15:09

months in the future, Larry, let's, can we,

15:11

can we go back? Sean, can I, can I

15:13

grab the range here for a second? I kind

15:16

of want to, I know that you were a

15:18

standup, uh, back in New York, you started sort

15:20

of as a standup, right? And I know this

15:22

from, I got kind of

15:24

a history of you through our mutual friend, Jim

15:26

Valley, the great Jim Valley, who I adore. He

15:29

lived in my building and he lived in your building

15:31

in New York. I remember telling you stories about him

15:33

when Candace's daughter was little and he, and Jim was

15:36

kind of a stay at home dad in a lot

15:38

of, a lot of ways. Right. And,

15:40

and he would talk about you living in

15:42

the building at Manhattan Plaza. Right. Right.

15:45

Uh, what was that like being a standup back then?

15:47

Like what was, what was your kind of, what

15:50

were your ambitions when you were doing that back

15:52

in those days, living in Manhattan Plaza and being

15:54

a, did you want to be the world's greatest

15:56

standup? What did you want? I did want to,

15:59

I wanted great stand-up. I

16:02

wanted to be one. And I really

16:04

would have settled if you had

16:08

told me in 1987 and you offered me $200 a week to do stand-up

16:11

in New York at

16:23

the clubs, $200 a week for

16:25

the rest of your life, I would

16:27

have taken it. Wow. Wow. Wow.

16:29

I was, we have an offer for you.

16:31

I had no, I had

16:34

no hopes to do anything.

16:37

Well, but what about, you said, Sean said

16:39

in the intro that you studied history,

16:43

to be a professor?

16:45

No. No, no, just to,

16:47

just to get out of college. And that

16:49

was that was world history or

16:51

American history? Both. Will loves himself some

16:53

world history. I took history, I dropped out of

16:56

college, but I was a history major and I

16:58

love history. I read mainly. Yeah.

17:00

I had no, I wasn't, I wasn't

17:02

going to, I wasn't interested in show

17:04

business. Right. Really? Yeah.

17:08

But, but dad parents, you're by

17:10

Jewish, by the way, both sides

17:12

are just your father. It's a

17:14

boat. Yeah, it's both. And, and

17:16

grew up in the disappointed. I

17:18

know. I, you know, if

17:20

you, if you would have

17:23

split it up, I don't think it would have

17:25

been the worst thing in the world. If you

17:27

would have given me a half and half, I

17:29

admire the half. You know, sometimes I'll somebody will

17:32

tell me is a half. I'll go, Oh, that's,

17:34

that's great. That's great. So were either one of

17:36

them, were either one of them particularly funny or

17:38

funny enough for you to feel like, Oh, maybe

17:40

I'll be a standup. I got it kind of

17:43

in my genes. No, no,

17:45

no. My, my mother was

17:48

funny without trying to

17:51

be funny without realizing she was being

17:53

funny. Right. She had a kind of

17:55

a Gracie Allen quality about her. In

17:57

fact, my friends called my mother Gracie.

18:00

But it wasn't purposeful. Right.

18:03

She wasn't cracking wise. Right.

18:07

And now back to the show. After

21:45

college, you were in the army reserve? Yeah,

21:47

because Vietnam was going on. I didn't want to go. I

21:49

didn't want to go and I signed

21:51

up for the reserves. And

21:54

so, um, and never got, never got drafted. No,

21:56

I never got drafted, but I got out of the

21:58

reserves after two years. With a

22:00

psychiatric discharge all about

22:03

that yeah i

22:05

told this i told

22:08

this i think i'm howard stern is

22:10

kind of a long story but should i

22:12

make a long story short no you can

22:14

we have a forty five and a different

22:16

audio. If

22:20

you're smart this is the last answer you'll give.

22:29

Work the clock Larry. Make

22:34

it up anyway. No,

22:38

I was I was in the

22:40

army the reserve that went to basic

22:42

training it was horrendous it was the

22:45

worst experience of my life. Yeah,

22:47

I was good you know ducking under

22:49

live ammunition and and

22:52

firing weapons and jumping on bayonets

22:54

and and so I

22:56

did that for eight weeks and then I

22:58

had the occupational specialty school I was a

23:00

petroleum storage specialist. What

23:03

and then we had to yeah it's

23:05

a well you have to fill up

23:08

the tanks with with gas sure somebody

23:10

has to do it so then. Then

23:14

after I got out I had to go to

23:16

meetings once a month. At

23:19

the floyd Bennett field a big airplane hangar

23:22

and was freezing and I had to go

23:24

home and I stayed at my apartment at

23:26

my parents apartment in Brooklyn I stayed with

23:29

them for the Saturday

23:32

Friday night and Saturday night and then I go home

23:34

back to New York on Sunday. And

23:37

but the beatings were Saturday and Sunday and then

23:39

I heard about a psychiatrist who was

23:42

writing letters to get

23:44

people out sure so I borrowed

23:46

two hundred and fifty dollars I went to see

23:48

the psychiatrist. I

23:51

Convinced him that I was insane. He wrote me

23:53

a letter saying I was saying you got it,

23:55

you would stop there. How do you convince him

23:57

you're insane? What was your what was your flavor.

24:00

My. Flavor was I wanted a kill

24:02

myself. okay so you you've went

24:04

in there and you do you

24:06

really convincing lead to V I

24:08

was guy had suicide of service

24:10

and organizations well as it does

24:12

it ever try to get rid

24:14

of a recession levels of I

24:16

for life resist to our. I

24:20

were you able to make yourself cry. I

24:23

was able to act. I would have to

24:25

act. As you can see it, I'm on

24:27

max round carbonite. I think I think I

24:29

could have. I think I could have fooled

24:31

the I don't know if I told him

24:34

right because he does. everybody was acting for

24:36

hims but I did when I went to

24:38

the meeting armed with the letter. Sure. Now.

24:41

I'm really acting insane. Yeah, right.

24:44

And these people who knew me.

24:47

For. Two years. Were

24:49

because I went off into the corner huddled

24:52

but I was those by myself as looking

24:54

around acting crazy and I said were rocking

24:56

back and forth a little they add go

24:58

with Sterling I was with with with a

25:00

major I agree was a major. he taught

25:03

him major with the major. Answer

25:07

rise A and I saw people

25:09

pointing to be talking about me.

25:11

I know they were. As. You

25:13

know what? like what was going on

25:15

with mates and then I went to

25:17

see the major and I gave him

25:19

the letter and he read the letter

25:22

and I'm sitting across with him acting

25:24

as not is a fruitcake and. Shoot

25:27

Shoot off a corner the letter. Will

25:31

have a letter to read the letter e s me

25:33

a couple of questions after the letter. And.

25:36

Then he said to me. To

25:38

new drive home. Perfect.

25:41

You have a year on it and I had

25:43

a half from as I said I said oh

25:45

yeah yeah I'm a good driver. I'm a good

25:48

join. Our

25:51

as he. Wow. Now.

25:53

you don't see or not you're not old enough

25:55

to go to vietnam i tell you what we

25:57

can use of their kind of ingenuity of vietnam

25:59

now to say we could have used people

26:02

thought I'd say yeah, country could have used

26:04

it. Larry. I'm sure I could have made

26:07

a contribution in some way. Yeah. But look

26:09

at the contribution you ended up making here.

26:11

You know, wonderful Larry. But Larry,

26:13

now that you're on down, now that you're here on this

26:15

little smart list thing and we didn't get a chance to

26:17

really go deep on the set when I was working with

26:20

you on curb, like I

26:22

was wanting to ask you, I wanted to ask you

26:24

the questions. Um, those days that we

26:26

worked together, but I was too like, I

26:29

know you're probably sick of talking about it, but Seinfeld, how

26:32

I've always wondered, how did you and

26:34

Jerry even meet and how did that

26:36

happen? Because when you make a TV

26:38

show, it's so rare that

26:42

the talent and the writers are the showrunners that

26:44

everything kind of hooks up and everybody has the

26:46

same sensibility and it seems you and Jerry had

26:48

the same sensibility. So did you know each other

26:50

out or was that like a business like

26:52

set up? We were both comedians in New York.

26:54

And so you knew each other. So we knew

26:57

each other in New York. Um, he

27:00

generally performed at the comic strip. I was

27:03

at the improv, but we, we would see

27:05

each other a lot. We always, we always

27:08

enjoyed each other's company. We would actually

27:10

go and write together in the afternoon.

27:12

He'd bring his premises. I'd bring my

27:15

premises and we'd go over them. And,

27:18

um, I had written, I had

27:20

written a screenplay that somehow

27:23

he had read. And then

27:25

when NBC approached him about doing

27:27

a show, he came

27:30

to me and asked if I'd be interested

27:32

in working with it. Had you written, had

27:34

you written a, like a half hour script

27:36

before? No, no, that's

27:39

why, that's why it's so damn good.

27:41

It just, yeah, I mean, different in

27:43

form, but did you, so when you

27:46

get into the, sort of running that

27:48

half hour multi-cam, uh, format, wait a

27:50

second, wait a second. I did write

27:52

one half hour. I did write a

27:55

half hour pilot for Gilbert Gottfried. No

27:57

kidding. Yeah. that

28:00

was filmed and they didn't pick it up. That

28:02

was for HBO. Was it also

28:04

a sort of a change, changing

28:06

the, the, the format a bit? No.

28:09

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They

28:11

didn't like it. So,

28:14

but I love it. Sorry, Willie. Well, I was

28:17

just going to say, so I kind of

28:19

want to get into this half hour format. So

28:21

you do multi-cam, but the way that you do

28:23

Seinfeld, it's not like traditional multi-cam you, cause

28:25

you have, but you, well, at least initially you,

28:27

you kind of would go back and forth to

28:30

Jerry doing his standup and then you guys

28:32

kind of fine tune that as you went is

28:34

my recollection. I get it. But

28:36

then the premise of the show, the

28:38

premise of the show initially was

28:41

how, how does a comedian get his

28:43

material? Right. So we would go through

28:46

an episode and you would see whatever

28:48

happened to him on the show, he

28:50

would turn into material. Yeah.

28:52

That was, that was like the idea. And

28:54

then it went like after the first year,

28:56

you guys, you guys tossed that, right? Not,

28:59

I don't think after the first year, I think it

29:01

was a couple of years. And then you just kind

29:04

of moved it to the end. Yeah. Right. But did

29:06

you, did you again, sort of, I don't want to

29:08

get too into the weeds on the format. No, go

29:10

on the weeds. We're already in

29:12

the weeds. Did you, did you enjoy it?

29:14

Did you, I don't know, was it difficult

29:16

for you writing in that format? There was,

29:18

was it a format that you liked it

29:20

or that you had to get used to

29:22

or that you rebelled against? Um,

29:27

no, I, I was, I was, I

29:30

was okay with it. I didn't mind it at all.

29:33

At one point I said to him,

29:35

I can't believe they're letting us do this.

29:37

I was really

29:39

surprised. Really? Yeah. I

29:41

felt like, I felt like, how

29:43

are we getting, how are we getting away with

29:46

this? Did you have a staff that you, that,

29:48

that, that you handpicked or did they try to

29:50

marry you with a bunch of more traditional writers

29:52

and how did that all work out? Well,

29:57

for the first four shows, I

29:59

was. The end of the

30:01

Executive Producer Young. They.

30:03

Brought in someone. Who

30:06

had it's experience? Sure. And.

30:10

Oh Vet who had a show

30:12

on the air previously? And

30:14

they brought him in. And he

30:17

was. He was my boss,

30:19

right? and so. We

30:21

handed and we handed in the first. Couple.

30:24

Of shows. And. Then

30:26

we were called into his office. A

30:29

move For notes. As. As

30:33

an hour he just was

30:35

just four episodes and out

30:37

that did that. Note: Meeting

30:40

a thing this is it

30:42

did not. doesn't work well

30:44

on really probably wanted to

30:46

make it something a bit

30:48

less ah specific, an esoteric

30:51

problem? not and less esoteric

30:53

or. I.

30:55

Don't know, you know And. There.

30:57

Were probably going for something more traditional, something

31:00

more to the Emily are recognizable Africa eager

31:02

to a major network and let a radical

31:04

round the edges of bed yet and you

31:06

guys sank for yeah said well. But you

31:09

because you guys what you famously did not

31:11

start a high up in the ratings you

31:13

are probably figured I'd love yeah not give

31:15

us a chance to grow and your own

31:18

thing. I said no to everything he said

31:20

yeah right If is around negative actually I

31:22

can't do that then I rather like. In

31:25

I I was the and the

31:27

intellect quit and. And.

31:30

They. Said Jarrett Jack than Jerry went to

31:32

Cal Surrogates. It looks as forget it will

31:34

game do this or not and. And

31:36

so then there was. That. Guide

31:39

and really but disappeared after that. Yeah.

31:41

And it was a that's it was essentially

31:43

was essentially my show after that yeah he

31:46

I have Larry itinerary. It should be noted

31:48

in. I had I was.

31:50

I was afraid of juries As some

31:52

of Music Seventy My buddies got me

31:54

a bed for my birthday to go

31:56

see Juri plays Runaway on our Yeah

31:58

and of the. The big fan of his

32:00

stand up and so would you go started the show I

32:03

watched. The first is I just moved to New York. It

32:06

was the fall of ninety right when you guys came on the

32:08

air. Of

32:10

a this winter summer. maybe the summer. The

32:12

power of neither. Yeah, Sever the Pilot came

32:15

on in the summer of eighty nine of

32:17

them. The first four shows came on in

32:19

June of nineteen. Yeah, I'm in some crazy

32:21

and it was the Seinfeld Chronicles as every

32:24

knows right And this year the first season

32:26

there for a season and or you are

32:28

just a pilot I think I think was

32:30

just the pilot or was it. And

32:33

I remember death. And. I and I

32:35

seem to remember as we talked about this. maybe

32:37

when Juri was on that. That.

32:40

The budget for the show or at

32:42

a B C came out of late

32:44

night. right? There to

32:47

our had Initially it was. Of

32:50

the required when who who I

32:52

think? Variety. Of righty Friday.

32:54

Yeah. And. Right? Was

32:56

it gridlock? on? yeah. One of

32:58

the great he gave it champion

33:00

the show. Greece. Or one of the

33:02

show and have gotten on the or if not for

33:05

him. Love them up and and while by the way

33:07

why you are on Seinfeld the and he had both

33:09

your daughters are just one daughter. I. Was

33:11

labov. Oh wow. And

33:14

did you bring them around where they entrusted? Other

33:17

with bated know I know but when they got

33:19

older. And they got hold

33:21

of the was off the air force yourself

33:23

to see and I said you fucking I

33:25

was a ruse like a second chance he

33:27

could say mouth Roka show do well I.

33:30

Saw on the show and off the

33:32

So. Off and Ninety Eight my.act as he

33:35

33:39

Six. first of outfits are so calm

33:43

how did you guys I will like toddlers.

33:45

Did you guys get a lot of

33:47

farmers? Is. Larry.

33:50

Curve correctly. Has been on longer

33:52

then Seinfeld was current. Been on

33:55

for twenty four years. Twenty four

33:57

years in them is not not.

34:00

The secular play not like consecutive like would

34:02

hang your loss but when we started restore

34:04

only shudder way I want to go into

34:06

curb more because like how did you come

34:08

up with the footlights. Being. Ah, being

34:10

there I was sick of this is how

34:12

this works. You get like a little outline

34:14

for my sister. Trace You doesn't understand. It's

34:16

not written like say Seinfeld was. It

34:19

would. It's all improvised, like we're talking at the

34:21

beginning of this episode. That. Dumb

34:23

but how does your his story of Missouri outline?

34:25

Yes you have to hit those points but it's

34:27

so good on because you spent an hour. Is.

34:29

Improvising one scene and then you cannot. The

34:31

fat the editing room and you abdel great stop

34:34

it's it's a great format so who thought

34:36

of that and why did you think that I

34:38

heard once is when you and I did

34:40

The Three Stooges. I, as you said to

34:42

me, I hate memorizing lines. yeah. Well.

34:46

It was a science olds

34:48

had ended and I was

34:50

thinking about. What?

34:53

Was going to do next and. Jeff.

34:55

Girl and had. I have an

34:57

office a castle rock and Jeff Garlin a novice

34:59

next door and he and he says me what

35:01

are you gonna do now I said i'm thinking

35:03

about going back to stand up. And. He

35:05

said well you should film it. Ah

35:07

and then I thought about oh well,

35:10

what what is that kind of days

35:12

filming at that sounds intrusive a I

35:14

don't know what. what are they get

35:16

the cameras going to follow me into

35:18

a dry cleaner Us the I could

35:20

understand I just I could see how

35:22

it's gonna be onstage that road. these

35:24

somewhat interesting to see the growth of

35:26

the act right from beginning to end.

35:28

but ah, stage. I didn't like the

35:30

idea of filming my cellphone cameras following

35:32

me around. I didn't feel I'm all

35:34

that interesting to follow. And so I

35:36

thought maybe if I. Wrote some. Success.

35:40

Stories. That.

35:44

Route We could do that around this.

35:46

The Stand at The stand up to

35:48

be real, but the last eight stuff

35:50

would be just stuff I made up.

35:53

And so that's what I did. I wrote an outline,

35:55

Ah, I may just my

35:58

managers cheryl audition seems. The

36:00

with my wife? Yeah, We

36:02

had kids in in the first special.

36:04

Because. Someone was was a special a wasn't a

36:06

pilot. It was just a one

36:09

off special, right? We got it. And

36:11

I did. You get it or just sewage, Could few

36:13

one more time to see a way to ever happen

36:15

as a kids a. Loner.

36:20

I am. I didn't really want to see

36:22

the kids I realized am a special sir

36:24

36:27

36:30

best will ever get back. several many different

36:32

36:34

on. everything up right. I love that

36:36

still looking to change that I didn't I

36:39

didn't one I didn't want. kids in

36:41

the show know a lot of the so

36:43

would be so much funnier without kids

36:45

and they want to deal with kids. Want

36:47

to keep having to explain? What about

36:49

the kids? What were? The kids are downright

36:51

okay heroes watching the kids. I don't

36:53

want to have to keep justify everything that

36:56

was going on as having to. Explain

36:58

where the kids were known. Kids to

37:00

get rid of unease kids are gonna

37:02

hate Losing is Larry. Decent guy, does

37:05

something really genius. who it is. You're

37:07

able to play this version of yourself

37:09

if you will. Ah and

37:11

you get to sort of be cranky and

37:13

as a widow really on and and it

37:15

has it it must have gotten. So I

37:18

visit to split India real life that you're

37:20

able to now could people just buy it

37:22

37:24

like from the south and now you could

37:26

just you can go to a gas station,

37:28

give guys finger and like people last year

37:30

later agreement stream. it's a slow group is

37:32

fine. I'll get nowhere on forums you sign

37:34

it. I mean I don't know my the

37:36

planet but like the west or to ballet

37:39

37:43

Ismail, my life so much better. Jesus

37:45

Christ now I'm jealous. I'm really getting

37:47

our heated now when I realized this

37:49

fucking carboy you living room printed yourself

37:52

a carte blanche yes to say whatever

37:54

the fuck you want to in the

37:56

players that we that we've and people

37:58

people does pointed of i'm not that

38:00

way I you. Like

tell me to go fuck myself and

38:07

me what am I doing or famous

38:09

you're making people happy by you being

38:11

cranky is so great? Yeah doubt. But

38:13

do you notice that of honestly that

38:15

you get that you get some stuff

38:17

out there as this sort of this

38:19

other version of yourself and then you're

38:21

real life actually ends up being a

38:23

little bit more placid and and and

38:25

less dramatic. I haven't noticed

38:28

that, but it is. Acting

38:30

in doing that. Larry David

38:32

on the show They Know

38:34

it is it is. It

38:37

is so much fun first the ball

38:39

and and kind of the little cathartic

38:42

in a way I I know, I

38:44

mean because I'm little, just started in

38:46

a way to couch it and we

38:48

hockey obviously it's the moderate and raided

38:51

as you get to prevail. All these

38:53

have a by the way how about

38:55

some. I. Was gonna bring this up

38:58

at At and not just hit me march

39:00

retailer Greens. First of all she said she

39:02

was watching Curb Your Enthusiasm which is already

39:04

ins are you watch the Zone and then

39:06

she got upset because. You.

39:08

See thought you painted people in her state

39:11

or in the south. As. Racist

39:13

or whatever I'm i'm paraphrasing side and

39:15

of her word, yeah but sports you

39:17

kind of blown away that see them

39:19

watches your show. I was pretty surprised

39:21

by it. But. It.

39:24

Was just about a law that

39:26

exists in that state. right exactly

39:28

where you can't give people water

39:30

food our when they're line moaning

39:33

to both. A registered zone one

39:35

sleeps. It's

39:37

so great! I I remember when

39:39

I when I heard about the lie rather die,

39:41

wrote it down and my notebook. And

39:44

then. I. Knew I was

39:46

gonna have the a hatchet had to use that

39:48

don't have on he isn't as like kind of

39:50

around that. Isn't. It. Yeah, yeah,

39:52

it's great. So then Larry. so

39:54

the show as as it has

39:57

this incredible long successful run, you've

39:59

brought it those beautiful conclusion: Ah,

40:01

I'm I'm not going to ask

40:03

40:05

I would imagine that. You're.

40:07

like all the greatest athletes had some

1:13:25

primal wound that and thing that happened

1:13:27

in uncharted is what makes them like

1:13:29

1:13:47

Cuba like the origin of Mama Made

1:13:49

Hands crazy do these. Insane Braves.

1:13:51

Things came from like something

1:13:53

really deep and real are

1:13:55

like Garrett Mcnamara's is. The

1:13:58

way guy. To learn about his child. Bunker.

1:14:00

Is like he he basically like at

1:14:02

one point is meant of his hippie

1:14:04

but she put him in this cold

1:14:07

I they have. A lot of colts. A

1:14:09

lot of colds but that that sort of

1:14:11

in the the most members. The reason he

1:14:13

was in many colds, mega hearts. But the

1:14:15

one and they had to renounce all

1:14:17

their possessions I'd he and his brother

1:14:20

had to where's bedsheets? They just walked

1:14:22

around and they had to beg for

1:14:24

everything. They can buy anything and. I

1:14:27

was so. Humiliating to be

1:14:29

walking the streets in Berkeley.

1:14:32

I. Ended these outfits begging for

1:14:34

things and estimate on these backstories

1:14:36

1:14:38

Do. The ah, it's incredible. Johnny have any of

1:14:40

these stories and smarty to try something. A

1:14:44

little, you know, I'm a little slow

1:14:47

on the uptake, so I'm just trying

1:14:49

to not do things anymore. I'm trying

1:14:51

to overcome my rights. Ah, You

1:14:54

1:15:40

off. Some are. Some some like

say i'm interim out the reason this was such a

1:20:15

tough decision for me and I think the reason I

1:21:35

We took the ramp there was already existing and

1:21:37

1:21:46

My. Dad's out there like strap on the third, the
