Yes, I have actually stayed at Airbnbs from time to time. And truth be told, I do really like them. I'm being totally honest right now that I've had great experiences with them. Yeah. I mean, you can have your look at you go get your own place, get your own pool, your own living room. You're not going to walk in an elevator. You're not going to see people when you're walking around in your undergarments. Yeah.
Yes. And if you don't understand what we're talking about, you should go online. What we're saying is you have a house with a kitchen and a bathroom and it's just for you, tailored for you. You liked your Airbnb over a hotel. Yes. And I do think I've had relatives stay nearby and sometimes it's very nice for them to do an Airbnb and have a little house and they're not underfoot. The last thing you want is your house guest to say, excuse me, um,
Where would I find a towel? That's a toughie when it's because they're naked. Well, it's like the 1800 time you say on the towel rack. Yeah. Thank you. I was going to look there. People don't even think hotels sometimes just go, hey, I'll go there. I'll get an Airbnb. So you won't regret it.
Dana, this week is Chevy Chase. Chevy Chase, the Chevy Chase. And you got to give it up for such an old school OG. First year, only did one year. A lot of people don't know that because he was such a powerhouse. He exploded. Crushed it tall, good looking, funny. Goldie Hawn said that's just a combo you don't see a lot, you know?
Yes. And so he's got all that credit. And so when he came in, I knew that his sense of humor, because he hosted SNL, and he's been very sweet to me over the years, but I knew he likes to say the inappropriate thing. And so he started doing it. So this is not for the faint of heart, this episode. I think it's really funny. Chevy was in full funny form.
And so we just all really, really laughed. And his wife, Janie, was there and his daughter, Kaylee. So I think it ended up being a really good experience. It's one of the more interesting ones because it is chaotic. He's jumping around. It's just like no one was here. We were just laughing at dinner, just saying stupid things. Some was a little off color and crazy. But remember, it is in the spirit of just we're trying to make each other laugh and be funny. Yeah. Once I knew that he just wants to say...
the inappropriate thing with his timing is perfect. It's like so wrong, it's right. I just started laughing. And that's what made him famous and that's what's good. And Greg and Heather, we all had a good time. We all laughed our ass off and I think he had a great time. So if you want to hear one of the OGs, stay tuned. Here he is, Chevy Chase.
Mr. Chase is getting comfortable here on the podcast. I'm not ready. He brought in a new chair. Where's Spade? Showering now? He doesn't know. No, he's bathing. He's bathing. That's even better. I don't know what he's doing. He's in there like this. David is missing all the best parts. Come on, David. I don't have all day. I've got another interview with Carlton Ralfords.
Keep going. I'm not going to quit on you. Oh. Woo-hoo. That's right. I don't want to ask you. I love the way you type out your questions. Well, don't you do it like that. I can't do it linear because the bubbles. This was guest prep. Did you say death threat? Death threat. He killed a man in Reno in 1977. That's the first line. The guy was named Skippy. Uh-oh. Skippy Bloodthirst. Oh, yeah.
Skippy. Come on, Dave. We're doing a Skippy thing. Sometimes he panics when we have a big star on the show. David? How about if you had Skippy on the show? Skippy dippy dippy. You know about that, right? Skippy. Oh, I see what you're doing. Yes, yes, yes, yes. The old taser run around the yard trying to survive trick.
Run into the bathroom. That's a very good question. By the way, you know, he's a good friend of mine. And you look nothing like him. Who? Johnny. Oh, that's right. Johnny. Johnny. Did you know Johnny? I was on five times and then I got blacklisted.
What did you do? I did. I was doing it with Phil Hartman. I'm doing Johnny Carson. We were doing the basics, you know, for those of you at home, you're watching a thing called a television and we're not actually in your living room. It was that kind of stuff. And then at one point we did one where he didn't know that Susan Day was not still on the Partridge family.
So like I know either. I know it was like 10 years later. But then on the next Tonight Show, because this Carson fanatic told me, he said, you see that, Ed? We're senile now, you know. So he would he would go down the hall yelling. It's time to go. They're making fun of me now. It's time to go. He did. Oh, that's according to Jane Lennon. You know, if the people go, it doesn't matter.
Fuck. You were on Carson. That's a good J. Well, you know, he just has all this wisdom, you know? Yeah, yeah, you just do it. It doesn't matter. And so funny. What the fuck? Chasey's my... Oh, hi, David. Can we call you Chasey as like a nickname? We're just going to get lunch. David Spade has joined the podcast. Chevy and I did a cute... Do I mind if you blow your nose, Dave? 20 up front. Is this mic about right?
Because they seem far away. It's beautiful. That's okay. I'll just do this. Nice to see you. He'll throw out his lumbar, but we'll hear him. Did you tell him? I'll do Carson all day. Lumbar is good. Lumbar. Tell him when you saw him at the... Oh, okay. So if you don't remember this, it doesn't matter. But there's a few funny... There's two funny or interesting stories about you and I. I got cast on SNL.
With auditioning. I go to Lauren's house in August. Are we taping? Yeah. We're always taping. We've been taping the last 20 minutes. Oh, I'm sorry. Does that hurt? We're almost done. Motherfucker. Okay, say it again. God, that little bitch. Okay. So, 86. I get cast in SNL. I'm not on the show yet. And I'm at Lauren's house in August. First one, we go to a Yankees game. I'm with you.
Tyson is sitting away from us. You go, let's go meet the champ. And we walked through the audience and they were just, Chevy, going crazy. And then we met Tyson. And he goes, hey, Chevy, taste it. Oh, I'm sorry. Now I'm doing Jay Leno. Fuck. Mike Leno. They're both the same. They're kind of, yeah. Yeah, I know you, but I don't even know who that guy is. But you introduced me to Mike Tyson. That's all I got. Do you remember that? You don't have to. Let me just think.
No. Nope. Okay, here's my second one. I like this little goofy motherfucker. Only you witnessed this, Chevy. You, me, and Lorne. Paul and Linda came over in August. And A. Whitney Brown, a comedian, was there with us. McCartney, everybody. McCartney. McCartney.
Oh, that guy. That guy. McCartney. I just wanted to see if you remember what Whitney said. So McCartney kind of sheepishly plays a song that is not out. He just recorded it. Yeah. And he plays it for us. And we're listening to his song. And then it ends and there's a pause. And Whitney said, just like this, reminds me of Julian Lennon.
And Paul never forgot it. That's one of you. Julian. Julian Lennon. To say that to Paul, that's all I got. Is there Kleenex or something in here? What is this thing? That's supposed to be the name of the thing. Would you like a Tic Tac? It's supposed to be the name of the show, but it's like,
It's like a lunchbox. No, why? Am I breathing? No, not at all. I just feel like you're good with props. Here's the key to the cellar. He's a prop guy. I happen to be good with props. That's where I keep her.
What's this one? Keys to the Cellar, where I keep the people. You know, I... I'm sorry. Look, there's no chance that you're going to speak. This guy is un-fucking-believable. I would plan that I would start it, but I'm going to be very quiet right now. No, no, no. All right. Now, which one of you is Dana? Let's just get that out of the way right up front. I'm Chevy. You're David. He's Dana.
Chevy is a legendary comic. I don't use that lightly. Grew up on all these movies, watching your whole time. Uh,
Unbelievable. There was the, it said here you started the National Lampoon Radio Hour. Is that what it's called, the Radio Hour? I didn't really even know. Radio Hour, yes. It was called the Radio Hour. What was the Radio Hour? Radio Hour. What was that? That's a tough one. Ray Hour? It was a Ray Hour. Look, we can get you a cocktail if it'll make you suffer. I would mention Foster Brooks if our crowd wasn't five to seven-year-olds.
So let me think. Foster Brooks. Remember Foster Brooks? Let me just think back, yeah. Yeah, that's why I don't, I try not to do those. Did he die or is many of him alive? What? He died of fake alcoholism. He's with Walt Disney. They froze him and took his head and put it in a tomb. So that National Lampoon radio hour, is that, because I didn't even know about that, but a lot of people came on to SNL from that. That was O'Donohue's thing. Okay.
I mean, Michael O'Donoghue. Who wound up being a writer on a song. Listen, the most incredible guy, really funny. He was just the best writer in the world. He's mentioned a lot on this podcast, but it's interesting to hear you. Oh, yeah. No, he was. In fact, he was a little bit...
fastidious he had in his tiny office you remember the office oh yeah just like college dorms yeah excuse me you fanning yourself we could get the air down i like it cool i have rosacea that's another so he would have that's nice you'll see later i'll have me over i'll have a pink flow but anyways i have it so you no wait on this wall oh on his corkboard got it
He'd have ideas. Right. And he was very, as I say, in caps, each little thing he'd do. And I'd go in there when he wasn't in there and just move those things just about an inch to the right. Oh, no. He doesn't like that. That sounds like...
College shenanigans. Yep. So you started as a writer. So you had Michael. Who else was writing with you when you first, you know? Lauren. Lauren. Thank you. That's it. No. Well, you had. Dare I say Alan Zweibel, who never wrote anything. What? Danny.
Danny Aykroyd. Oh, of course. And Al Franken and Tom Davis were there then in the beginning. Did you kind of put that writing staff together with Lorne kind of? No, I just did it. Not Lorne. No. So Swybel did writing. All Lorne did was pay me big. Well, you were in this National Unplugged Radio Hour with a couple of these guys. And so Lorne kind of went there to pluck some of those writers and performers off of that. It was radio sketches. Is that what it was?
What's the question? What was the radio hour? Were you guys doing bits or what were you doing? Oh, yeah. Very funny shit. And let's see. Billy Murray was on it. Yeah. And then, like, I think he killed somebody. And then... Right. Yeah.
You know Billy Murray, don't you? Oh, yeah. He's an Irish – you wouldn't want to – yeah, he's a tough guy. Irish guy, yeah. Yeah, he's – I saw him take somebody by their feet and slam them on the floor. No, okay. Anyway – How did Martin Short take that? Right, exactly. He's wily too. I have to say I love him, but –
He's a strange fellow, Billy. You guys were magic together. We'll talk about that later. That's right. And Caddyshack. Yes. We do have cookies and milk and a little nap halfway through. Yeah. For David. Dana and I are getting up there. I'm getting a foot massage right now. That's okay. I don't want anything to drink. They pluck you guys off. They put you on.
Oh, I'm sorry. Go ahead, David. You got some great, sir. I got it. See? What have I done? Well, you're just always practicing your art. No, that was a good one, actually. You were that way when I met you in 86. You would just do, I remember you trying to put a pizza box into a little garbage can. No one was watching. I go, he's doing Buster Keaton. You couldn't put it in. You folded it. You looked around.
I mean, it's really interesting. I was watching you work. Yeah, that you're just always practicing. Yes, I heard a story. Is this true? When you met Goldie Hawn at Paramount, she had a crocheted handbag on. And when you walked in, you didn't say hi. You just went up and put your hand under the bag and said, cough, please. Yes, that is true. Isn't that hilarious? Yeah. Oh, Janie's here, Jebby's wife. We just had dinner with Goldie. That's right. And he was heaving.
Yeah, she just reminded me. Isn't that funny? But I just said cough, not cough, please. Yes, you know what? You're right. See the difference? The timing. I'll just talk to him then. No, you know what? It's true. She said it was cough and I added please to help the crowd at home. You know, you did it right and I should not tweak it.
100%. So when you first met Goldie, like you're going to do a movie with her, did you just know right away the chemistry? Foul play was the first one, right? Was that the first time you met her? Borked her. Anyway, I'm sorry. What was that? Let's roll a clip. We have editing capability. Don't worry. Okay. And the question was,
Did you... He's backing up. I know you're kidding. I don't know. I'm interested in the people you met in the 70s that kind of just immediately impressed you. Obviously... Well, she was... Yeah. Yeah, she was beautiful. Charming, funny. Charming. Funny? Yeah, funny. Sort of funny. We just had dinner with her recently. Yeah. And she's... She's dead now. Was it because... Two days later. Was it something she ate? No, she's a...
She looks the same. It's amazing. This is many years later. She looks great and seems great. She was the bubbly sort of airhead on Laugh-In, and then she became this big movie star and movie producer. And now she knows half the alphabet. Yeah.
I don't know. I'm either punchy or everything you say is killing me. So you go do, what, foul play, which is already sick of it. No, no, I like it. I love it. Janie, this people ask my wife, is he like this all the time? Yes. Okay. It's exhausting. I love it. Funny is funny. So enough about you. What do you think of David and I? Okay.
What happened now? I don't know. I'm just smelling my mic. Doesn't everybody do that? Yeah, go ahead. Well, here. I'll read you. He has perfect pitch. Can you read those? I made some notes. This is too much. All right. I can't read that. Who was more talented, Dan Aykroyd or Goldie Hawn? No, Danny was the resident genius, as I like to say. Yes, for sure.
of SNL. And when I say that, I think of Danny like holding a painting, just sitting like off to the stage right or something with the painting.
And talking about it. Yeah. And really beautiful, you know, everything in it is great. Look at the rock and the way the trees are. And there's a naked woman in the middle of it. He never mentions it. So he's, you know, like this and that. And you're just going. I mean, he's, I just, by the way, did a picture with him about a few weeks ago. Oh, yeah. Up in Canada. Mm-hmm.
He's great. He's the best. There's something about him. He's so likable. Naturally funny and doesn't try. He's just naturally funny. We had Phil Hartman. Unlike yourself. He was sort of a double-hanger. I try hard. I'm sorry. What did I say? I love it. We had Phil Hartman was kind of like that. Oh, yeah. He would get into the specs of an Everwood motor way more than show business and his plane and his boat and just a hobbyist like Dan. I miss him, you know?
- He was great. - We all do. - Yeah. - What did he die of? I forgot. - It's a long story. We'll save that for part two. - Bullets.
Love. Well, yeah. Oh, boy. You're right. I forgot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Heavens to Betsy. That was a rough one. So Danny's the genius. Michael's the best writer. And you're friends with Paul Simon. He's pretty good. Paul? Yeah, Paul Simon. The shorter one? Yeah.
I don't know how he's coming up with it. Come on. It's like Stuart Little. He's doing a Stuart Little show. But that first year, you're loaded up. You fucking go out there and crush it. You're on SNL. It's great. Can't get any huger. Cover Time Magazine said you're the funniest guy in America. What? Really? Yeah.
Did you hear that one? Really? Maybe it was Penny Saver. I gather you blew up on that show. Yeah. First year. I guess so, yeah. Yeah. Would you like to see my cock? That's three questions from now. Again? I'm sorry.
So sorry. Hey, I said again. That's pretty good. I'm getting used to your frequency. Again. Would you like to see my cock? My new favorite line. We've done 60 episodes, some 200 hours, and that's my singular favorite line. Chevy Chase, would you like to see my cock? Yeah. Yeah.
That might do good with your, he's got merch. If you have merch, that's a good one. Well, that's merch. You need merch. Merchandise. We put it on a t-shirt. We monetize it. Chevy Chase, would you like to see my cock? We sell it and give you a little bit. No, I'm telling you, you could do merch. You could do t-shirts that just say. What about this?
Is that yours? Okay, it says- Yeah. Oh, it is. I made it up. Okay, good. Jesus Farmers. That's what it says. We're looking to sell billions of them. Well, what's it about to you? Nothing. It's just ships. Oh, okay. It's just juxtaposing two words that don't- Yeah, Jesus Farmers. In a sense, yes. Yes. I don't know if you have time to explain it to everyone. Big eyes, lean forward. I'll do the play-by-play for the audience. You could have a shirt that just says, this is crazy, this is crazy.
Anyway, so. No, you have to answer. Oh, is that you? You have to answer one question this hour. Okay. That's merch, guys. Scribble these down. Chevy held his hat over his eyes and pretended that then David was revealed. What are you, describing it? I think it's funny. I thought this was being filmed. We're filming it and it's going to be a Broadway show. Unfortunately, you're being played by Jon Hamm. Oh.
On an Apple box. I think I know who that is. Somebody mentioned that we looked alike or something. Well, he just did. Fletch. Fletch.
He did a remake. Yeah. Right. I'm ripping my notes into confetti, but I will try a few more. Love Spies Like Us. I'm just going to say things I like. You're just going to jump around. The buddy movies are unreal. There's too many to mention, but obviously, how many vacations did you do? Not we. 17. 17. It feels like it. Eight movies and nine actual vacations. Right, Janie? Yeah.
How many vacations? Four vacations. Four movies, but how many if you ask your vacation? Yeah, let's ask Jamie. You have that backwards. Whatever happened to Randy Quaid? Four vacations. Randy Quaid? Yeah. What's he up to? Well, he lives in a prison. I'm just kidding. No, he's wonderful. He's an eccentric. He was great. He lives with his wife. Is Canada anything? I just spoke to him.
Yeah. Unfortunately, now I can, you know, speak to Randy. See, I called Randy. I hadn't spoken to him in, what, 40 years or something. And I just couldn't, I wanted to call him. Yeah. You know, and...
I lied about that, you know, we're going to do another vacation. Oh, my God. He must have shit his pants. Yeah, what can I say? How did you couch him? I called out of the blue, and you haven't done shit. You know, that's not right. So I lied, and I'm sorry, Randy. Oh, my God. We might do another vacation. He's doing an episode of Doomsday Preppers right now.
Doomsday Preppers? That's where they live in a bunker. He's the president of Montana Freeman, I think. Oh, Doomsday Peppers Farm. Hey, man. Okay. They're listening in. Nice. Next. Okay. Keep going. I want to talk about Three Amigos because- Yes.
Martin Short and Steve Martin and you were so likable. And when that movie, I told Lauren that it's gotten shinier and brighter. What? Yeah. Well, you know, it was a hit, but then now it's like a cult thing. They don't make kind of funny movies anymore. Have you noticed that? Just those type of just funny. Yes. What do you think of Martin Short? Is he talented or what do you think? So damn funny. He's maybe the funniest. He's up there. I know. Yeah.
Is that some kind of... That's how big his dick is. That's all I can say. Chevy Holder. Well, it's three guys, different senses of humor, jammed in a movie. It's got to take some finessing to make it work. It worked great. It was amazing. Remember your chapstick moment that was on the horse? Yeah. You made such... That was winged. Oh, for sure. You could tell. For sure. Yeah. Versus what? Marty...
Have sand coming out of his mouth. Yes. He spits the sand. I don't know what Steve had. I don't know. His water was gone or something. And then I'm there like... Yeah, you're showering. My horse. It was hideous. Yeah, it's great. Like a silent film. I love that scene. But I think one of my favorite things is... Do you have anything...
Do you have anything besides Mexican food? In the restaurant in Santa Polo, where the fuck were you? Where were you? Where did you shoot it? In Mexico? I don't know. Mexico. Arizona? Oh, in Mexico. No, New Mexico. Oh, thank God. Oh, there you are. Yeah. Only you would know that, sweetie.
My wife, Janie Chase. We're turning it into the interview with her. It's fun to, we haven't had a player here who can speak truth to power about everything. I remember Lorne saying, I think it was John Landis. He was like frustrated with the cut and he always refers to comedians as the monkeys. It's great to shoot all the townspeople, but you should really spend some time on the monkeys. And that was you three. But that's, he says that to all of us. Oh. We're the monkeys.
Here's something that Lorne said. Lorne said monkeys? Did Lorne ever say this to you, Chevy? Because Lorne has a way of like taking big issues and making them. He's about funny people and there's funny people. And he says, there's only 900 of us on the planet. And it was like a perfect. 900. I know. It was such a funny specific number that I kind of went. Did he figure it out? There's three in Portugal. There's seven. Less in Russia.
Ukraine has maybe a mime now because the president is a monkey. That's right. You mean a comedian. Right. Okay. Sorry. We love Lorne. I don't want to do anymore. You're too funny. No. You're making me funny because you're funny. He's unpleasant. But you're funny. I know my place. Well, I'm going to write that down. You're funny on a T-shirt. And the cock one. David's unpleasant.

I'm going to ask a normal question. Did you meet Lauren in line at a Monty Python movie? If so, which one? Good. I did. Would you suck your straw again that way? I know. I'm trying to get everyone worked up. Chevy's not wearing any pants.
Oh, shit, you're right. Was it Holy Grail? Yes. Yeah, it was. And I remember Lorne.
Can I cut in? Actually, I don't remember him. I'm sorry. Did he cut in line or did you actually? Did you plan that ahead of time or did it happen live in real time? See, that's me. I remember Lorne. That's why you guys never got this far. No. We didn't. Wait. I looked at your 19 hit movies and your Academy Award. I cannot argue that. We cannot argue your IMVD. Is that what they call it?
You are legendary. And I told him when we came through the door that it was a human. Does this bother you? Chevy has his face on the side of the mic. Chevy's doing a handstand. I'm loving this. Hosted SNL eight times and had four vacation movies. Disgust. I did not host it eight times. You didn't? Fucking Wikipedia. Five? You're the five? No, I'll tell you why. Okay. Because Lauren, that prick.
I needed to host it. I hadn't been seen much and, uh,
You know, I was getting closer to death. Sure. Are you a liar? No. It's a hologram. I asked him, he said, Chevy, you've hosted it five times. Like that's enough. Well, fuck you and your big mouth. I mean, what? You know, come on. I could have hosted it six. Keep going, yeah. And you stalled out at five? That was it. And now you're in the five-timers club.
Yep. I've only hosted at three. David? Two. Two. There's no club for us. Well, that's five together if you do together. We should come together. That'll be the next shtick. Coming together. On the 50th. Chevy is a first ballot hall of famer.
But I'm going to try to get some votes. Like you start as your own. For SNL. You start with Dan Aykroyd. It means on SNL, they're just obviously right in the Hall of Fame of SNL, no matter what. We think it's sports. Do you like sports, Chevy? No arguments. We think it's sports metaphors. Do you like sports? Are you a sports guy? Like what? You're my starting five. Did you say spores? Spores. Janie. I like spores. Maybe Janie should pull up a chair and just sort of. Another way to put it. You want to get Janie down here? You're creating a sketch team.
For a television show, I would start with you at Update, and I would put Dan Aykroyd in there. And Bill Murray. Basically the whole first cast. Yeah, it's hard to think. Well, he wasn't in the first Billy.
Billy came a little later. Yeah, he was in – Like three years. I think he's from – He was in Chicago killing people. Oh, right. Billy – because you're both six foot four. Lorne, we'd like someone as tall as Chevy. And then they brought in Bill. You're both giants. Yeah. Now, Gilda Radner, she's just a magic person on King. I know. Is she still around? Yeah.
That's all right. It's okay. Come on. It's pretty bad. That's pretty bad. No, no. I love to kill people. I've said things privately that would make your hair stand. Apparently, I'm not being private. Exactly. This is where the microphone comes in. This is our first live podcast. It's all over Europe and East Asia. Everything's out there. No, anything can be cut so you can say anything. Yeah. Who are your favorite SNL people over the years? Gilda for sure. Danny, John, even-
And he's dead. It happens to the best of us. Yeah, that's what I mean. Yeah. God. Who would you put in there? Wasn't that the worst thing in the world, John dying? Yeah. That was a tough one. Janie and I were in our house out here. Yes. An earlier house. Mm-hmm. It was on the door. And...
You're not supposed to really actually get into the area because other people live here. Anyway, I opened the door and there's like eight journalists. Jimmy, what do you think about John dying? No, no. It was hideous. Yeah. That's how you found out. I said, great. No. It literally just blew our minds to hear it.
On the other hand, it wasn't that surprising given its proclivities and may I say propensities. And now pigtail. And peculiar piccadillos. Piccadillo. Piccadillos. Piccadillos, yes. Well, we're a family on Saturday Night Live. We're all connected. Don't you wish.
Not that I was looking, but what is your rank on the all-time, are you on the top five? Like Rolling Stone did something. Did you check your number? I think I was nine. I think I was 10. 10, right behind me? I think you know fucking away, this little prick. I'm going to write that down. Wait a minute. No, I doubt it. Janie, do we remember seeing this?
We don't read. There were lots of polls. That was just, I remember Steve Martin saying, they just throw it up against the wall. I think Jan Winter was two. They also do polls with some people out of order so people argue about it. Okay. That's what I've found in my travels. Oh, yeah. I got a question for Chetty. You do this, both of you, right? We do. I keep thinking I have hair.
You keep rubbing it? Whoa. Wait a minute. It's starting to come in. I dropped my... No, this morning I was in the bathroom doing this. And I'm showing J.D. this is what I do. Just balance it. That's not a bad idea. I had air once, but...
Dude, you're a movie star. Well, that's what Jerry Seinfeld said to Lorne. He goes, I had hair when I needed it, like during the sitcom. And then he lost it all. Not lost it, basically at 50. But when he was on the sitcom, I had it when he needed it. You had it when you needed it. I got it. I got it. But what's he doing now, Jerry Seinfeld? Counting his money. Yeah. No. No, I don't know.
He likes to do standup. He worked on a Pop-Tart bit for five years and now he's making an animated. I'm not kidding. I believe you. He is the most scientific. And if you're around him and he hasn't done his hour alone in a room with his comedy notes, he starts getting anxious.
Really? I've got to get to my notes. I hope he's not listening. It took him a while to crack that problem. He's one of the best stand-ups. He cracked the code in that bit. Now he's one of the best. No, Jerry's one of the best. I saw him two weeks ago. We were at the improv and he came into the set great.
wall to wall he goes i'm trying new stuff and didn't seem new it's so good he's you know yeah well said yeah chevy we can take don't worry my parts will be cut out later sounds like julian lennon no this is a compliment you were on the tonight show huge star and then you were uh maybe you guest hosted would you ever want to have been the host of the tonight show after johnny left or no oh no because they said that you were one of their favorite no i think people wrote that um
Let me just think of who wrote it. And then people like me read it. Truman Capote. I'm fucked. I can't remember. It was Truman Capote. Oh, NBC executives referred to you as the first potential successor. But it seems like you were doing so many movies, you wouldn't want to do that. Like, of course. But that was a huge compliment to say you'd be the best to take over. I guess so. Who said it?
I don't know. I'm just making shit up at this point. Thank you. Thank you very much, Ed. You are correct. Can you do Ed too? No. No, sir. Not really. Phil Hartman, our Dan Aykroyd, did the best Ed he did. He did a good Ed. He did a great Ed, and every time he spoke, it was funny. And Johnny just set him up. Oh, God.
Because Johnny's references were not very current. Reminds me of the old Palmel cigarettes. Old reference, lost on Young of All. Palmel. Palmel. Reminds me of the old Palmel cigarettes. Did you just make that up now? Yeah. Do you like them?
I like David. I like David. Let's move on. I like you, Chevy, more than I like David at this point. We're trying to win you over, but we're running out of time. No, he's won me over. You hosted the Academy Awards twice. Yeah. A lot of work or fun? You all right? Oh, sorry. No, it's not work. I just heard your sciatica pop. The honest thing is, the honest thing is, it's fun. Go ahead.
You know, you don't have to do shit, really. You just come out to everybody who has to, like, announce what the next thing, and the screenplay, and, you know, all that shit. They're all fucking crazy scared that they won't get their lines right that are right there, fucking right now. And for me, I don't have to have that. I just have to be me, as it were. I think the very first one I hosted was,
Jack Nicholson was sitting in the front row. He was always there, yeah. And first... What'd you say? Uh-oh. As I came back, the first thing I said was, quiet down, Jack. Just mindless. Then the camera's on him, you know. Right. Well, I think if you were having fun, it's going to translate. Pryor and I did it together. Together, oh, that's great. Yeah. And...
He went out before me, he said, this was the first thing he said, no black man has ever won anything. Anything. No, they had that famous sketch. Well, it was first year, famous sketch with you and Pryor. Oh, that one. The job interview. That was, yeah. One of those. Very adult. Yeah, very. Yeah. We all know the sketch. We don't have to say anything else.
Thanks a lot, Tickface. Well, I said it was great. I think we can't talk about that because we have editing capabilities at all times. Tick's on his face. Tick's on his... No. Don't look at your watch, Chevy. I thought he was coming around to say... No, you have three and a half more hours. I could tell a Richard Pryor story, but I don't know if I want to take Chevy's time. Please, do. Do. Okay, I'll say this fast again. I read from moving, by the way. No, I... Yeah, before that, I was a waiter at the Holiday Inn and I waited on Richard Pryor because he was playing this theater. Yeah.
and I brought him a Denver omelet. And when I took it away, I was very nervous. He looked at me and said, "Whoever made that omelet can suck my dick."
And I never knew if that was a positive or a negative. You know, it could have gone either way. Ten years later, I'm in a movie with Richard moving, and I had to know. So at lunchtime, I'm sitting next to Richard. I took a bite of a cheeseburger, and I said, whoever made this cheeseburger can suck my dick. And he goes, you must like that cheeseburger. Oh, boy. That was the Richard Pryor bit. I like it. Yeah, there's a little math to it. I'm sorry, but you should work on the voice, too.
Well, I haven't done it in a while. It's a substitute voice for now. Hi, I'm Richard Pryor. I remember Richard doing the show, hosting first time. Like the second host, I think. Maybe second show. Thank you. Anyway. Applause for accurate facts. What did you think when you first saw it? Wait, I'm trying to remember why I started that.
I have a little pain in my heart. That's all right. It's okay. He's on the phone. Heavy as oxygen? No. Richard and the... Janie, please. Okay. Do you have it? Yeah. Are you going to remember? Okay. Yeah. I should have told you guys this ahead of time. February last year...
Chevy had heart failure. Cool. And was on. Cool. Well, I'm just, I'm channeling you now. I never noticed. Basically, he was rather out of it for a while. Oh. So he lost some, some memories. They're kind of coming back.
Okay. Why don't you share this with them and the radio world? It seems like your memory has pretty come back at this point to me. Oh, yeah. But I'm sorry about heart failure. I'm here with David Spade and Dana Andrews. Oh, right. Well, I was named after him. Were you? Yeah. Oh, God.
Oh, so Richard. Yes. See? He's trying to... You got us back on track. Yeah, he's trying to compare white people and black people, you know, like a stand-up. And he says, you know, white people get all like that if they see a snake. They get all frightened and jump away. Black people just go snake,
It was great. Well, it's just his timing. He's a snake. Yeah. He's the best stand-up. Yeah. I think his Long Beach special was just phenomenal. Anyway, David, any favorite? You're friends with Norm? You were friends with Norm MacDonald? Yeah. He's a good update guy. He was great, right? Oh, he's just great. Yeah. Yeah, he does great shit. I thought he did it. Yeah. Yeah.
I didn't think anybody else did it very well, but I thought he did brilliant. Yeah, he pushed it pretty far. He just went right for the dirt. Yeah, he went for the jugular every time, which... No, there weren't any... It's like I did it because I was interested in politics. I read the New York Times. Not him. He just goes and just throws like a dirty word in there or something. Oh, fuck my goddamn nail. This is very dangerous studio.
Yeah. He did a lot of that OJ stuff. You have a classic. Oh. It was always some turn by Norm, but he probably was influenced by you as far as being dangerous or being edgy or. I don't think so. I don't know. Well, after you doing Update, that's not the one to beat, but it's like, that's so good. You go, how do I do it where I don't look?
I don't look so pale in comparison. Well, it was the first one. So people do compare that. Yeah. And yeah, but you know, really, it was the best by far. Thank you. Yeah.
Was that our best question? I'll tell you a quick joke I heard from Norm. Good. Norm is always fun. This Norm joke where he goes, my wife, first of all, he's not married. My wife was in a coma. I'm waiting in the waiting room. Was in a coma? This is Norm's fake joke. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like your good audience in a coma. Well, you did say coma, didn't you? So the wife's in a coma. The doctor says, Norm goes, anything I can do? And he goes, well...
We found an unorthodox way, some way to get her awake. Oral sex might help. And he goes, oh, yeah? And he goes, well, if you want to. And he goes, yeah, I'll do it. So he goes in there and he comes out and he goes, Doc, it's been five minutes and she's choking. LAUGHTER
That's Norm MacDonald. That's a good Norm, yeah. I think he told that to like Conan. Everyone's like, oh, Jesus. Hey, you know, that guy. Conan just, okay. Conan. Is that the redheaded guy? Yes. He's very ginger and he's very tall. Yeah, he is tall. You're right.
Hi, Conan. How are you? Oh, he's shorter than you? I have no idea. Look at Dana and I are fighting it out down here at five. Divorce me. She's like, I did. You forgot.

I got a real question. Did you ever write a script? You're a very funny guy. Did you ever just write a whole one? No. Okay, Dana. I wrote many beginnings and stuff, you know.
and thoughts lots of i got a lot i wrote every day but i just couldn't bring myself to writing a whole script you probably punch up a lot on the set though or add jokes that's probably what did you say i said you probably punch up when you're on a set when you're filming on the set you probably improvise a lot punch up stuff a lot they probably give you the script ahead of time like fletch and you go not that i'll do this that's what i'm assuming
Okay. Yeah. Good assumption. You might be a genius. I'm not. I don't think so. It's possible though. I know I'm not. Yeah. How long of a shoot was, how long was Caddyshack? Everyone's favorite movie from growing up. How long was it? How long did it take you guys? Was it a short shoot? How long was Caddyshack? Three or four weeks? When you shot it. Yeah. When you shot it. Oh. Because I was going to say about an hour and a half. Yeah.
You know what's funny? How long was Caddyshack? Thank you, Dave. No, what is the running time of Fletch? These are my questions. He was a chess champion. He's into numbers. He was an actual state chess champion. Is that true? I was, but the smartness has gone away. King to pawns, knight four, whatever it is. What do the pawns do?
The pawns do... That's a great question. That's like David and I here right now. Okay, excellent. Can I give you a compliment as a question? Are you kidding? Yes. I can't wait. Okay. I cannot wait. I always tell people about... Because I was watching Caddyshack.
And so you and Billy Murray are doing a thing where you're golfing. I think going through the thing. Bill Murray is in his gopher guy. He's got the funny mouth. He's got the overtly funny character, right? Yeah.
You play it so Buster Keaton, your face is so straight that you more than hold your own in that scene. And I always go, because I'm always out there dancing and mugging and pushing. You just went nothing and created this incredible comedic dance with Bill Murray. Now you talk. Go.
Go. Chevy is wiping a tear. No, but do people mention that scene in your style of silent film comedy when you want to do it? Well, we did wing it. By the way, it was in Bill's caddy shack. Yeah. Oh, that one, yeah. When we first shot it, when we were ready to go, Bill had put on the wall there like –
Eight pictures of naked women, like their legs spread, you know, from Hustler or something. And, you know, Landa said, I don't, no, I don't think so. And so Bill just collected them all, just one underneath, you know, one of, I don't know, a girl like this or something. Maybe like this. Anyway, so...
We start going and he's just trying to get me the whole time to crack me up. And he goes, you have a pool, don't you? You know? You know?
We have a pool and a pond. A pond would be good for you. And if you look at this film, he never cracks, right? In that one, he went... Just a little bit. Just a teeny bit? I'm going to look at that tonight. It's a beauty. I love it. You'll see it. Was that kind of a tracking shot? How long would they let you guys go before they'd yell cut? Did they just follow you? It seemed very spontaneous. I think the...
It couldn't have been just one shot. They had to cover me. So it was cut. But they're smart to keep that because that's probably maybe on a wide shot or maybe your side and then they just go that we got to keep that one in there. Yeah. Yeah, that's great. Wow. What's your name again? I'm DS, David Spade. SNL 90 to 96. What's your handle on Instagram? What's your handle? What's your handle? Okay, Chevy. Give him one more. We won't beat him up too bad. Um...
Well, I'll just do... What about dream role? I've got your dream role. Did you ever aspire to do something dramatic and try to get an Academy Award? Oh, absolutely. Okay. I don't read the papers. You know, they don't give them for comedy. They do not. And apparently I'm not going to do any more movies, so...
My chance. It's fucked. I remember when- I'd like to get an Academy Award. Right. Because I can put it there with my Emmys. Yes. Do you have Emmys? All awards are good. Oh, yeah. You got Emmys the first year. I have three Emmys. Whoops. One for writing and another one for writing. Writing and writing. Oh, and an acting one. Yes. Is that all SNL first year? Yeah, yeah. Oh. By the way, the only year I was on.
What are you and Janie Do you and Janie Because my wife and I There's so much television I know But we watch these live streaming shows together at night Chevy has got something in his ear Did you watch The Crown What did you watch Well you did Did you watch Dahmer on Netflix No I'm kidding No but what do you watch No I went with him What do you mean did I watch it I have two older brothers And my oldest brother has been staying with us
And he and Chevy just watched Breaking Bad. Oh, what a treat. And then they listened to the new Thriller album by Michael. What a dork. Finally. Hey, got one. But Breaking Bad was brilliant. That's cool. My wife can't watch. She likes kind of more gentle ones. I like...
He and I don't always like the same things. Right. So it's great to have my brother there. Because I can have sex with him too. That's a good one. He's just warming up. That's the funny part. You're getting funnier as this podcast goes on. Come in. Hello, operator. Oh, here we go. Oh, no, I'm not.
You've got me sillier than I've ever been. So, okay, you watched Breaking Bad, but Janie, I just, Chevy, can I talk to her for a second? Yes. What was your favorite streaming show of the last few years? Did you watch Ozarks? What? Ozarks? Is that really a show? Yeah, it's a show. Oh, boy. Jason Bateman. I started all the streaming stuff with True Blood. Oh, yeah. True Blood. Early binging. Yeah, it's a vampire thing.
Oh, yeah. She loves that vampire shit. And then he did Thrones and Downton Abbey, but then he didn't watch all of Downton Abbey. I did like that. It was very good. I thought it was very funny. Yes. I like, wasn't there a character in Downton Abbey? This is very chubby. A character called Masturbates. There was, right? Yes. And then as you go, Masturbates. There was? I'm sorry. Masturbates. Oh, that's so funny. He disappears in his room. That's fucking hilarious. Yeah.
It's all I got. I don't deal in puns very, that's my best pun. I don't deal in puns. No, but his character was Master Bates, right? Yeah. Is that true? Can't make that up. Yeah. Fuck. Well, it was Mr. But they said it like that. Mr. Bates, but they said it like that. Oh, there you are. Master Bates goes into his room and makes the most unusual sounds. He's shrinking and shrinking. This is how the wiener's shrinking. He's making. What's this one? I don't know. I'm just trying to make you laugh. Anything. Anything.
All right. Any what we've learned today, Dana? We've learned that Chevy Chase is still the funniest guy in the world. Very funny. You have more questions, don't you? I have. Yeah. Let's do a few more. Sometimes I like to put people when they're young, like 10 years old, movie or TV show that blew your mind around that age, you know, that like kind of maybe I could be on TV someday. Yep.
Do you mind if I shit on your chair? Okay. That wasn't... That's how good the question was. Top five answers on the board. Tom Hanks answered it. Did you have a bicycle in? Tom Hanks, he's got two Oscars. Chevy's older.
I know, that's what I mean. Oh, sure, tell them that. Chavvy, you might have been watching Roy Rogers or Rin Tin Tin. No, no, the actual answer is Shane. Do you remember that? The movie Shane? No, the comic book Shane. Well, I thought it was a TV show question, but go ahead. Oh, it was a TV show question? Shane blew your mind then as a kid. You see it in the theater or? I did. I went with my dad. Okay. And you were like six, seven. He passed. What? That's all right. We all do. Passed away. During the previews?
Kaylee! Kaylee, finally. Is the cat okay? This is my daughter. I know. She goes, hey, Kaylee. Hi, guys. Hi. We've been having a really good time with your dad. He's hysterical. Are you here to save us? Yeah, I'm here to save you. We've asked him about his favorite movie when he was a kid. Basically, he said Shane in 1953. It was an intense movie. Good find. Yeah. Yeah. Jack Palance was the bad guy. Mm-hmm.
Who was the star? The... He was... Jack. He was vertically challenged, broad shoulders like a gymnast, famous movie star. Look him up. I can't believe I'm spacing on. Heather, look him up. No, he's so famous. He was the star of Shane. S-H-A-I-N?
Kidding, honey. Jack Palance. Jack Palance, by the way, is the way he pronounces it. No, no, no, no. No, no, no. No, it's 1953. Kung Fu, babe. Alan Ladd, ladies and gentlemen. Alan Ladd. These people are old. A funniest person you ever met. Two seconds.
And Sam Sam Sam Warnick I'm not finished Kenison Sam Kenison Yeah It's hilarious A perfect day Wait did you really ask me I did ask you You want me to answer The funniest person you ever just met Like whoa Jonathan Winters Wow That's a great answer I like it I like it
He is kind of supernaturally whatever. Doesn't get enough attention, Jonathan Winters, and he was great. I'll say. My dad used to talk about him all the time and made me watch it. I had a hematoma in my leg from hitting it on a table.
And I was in a lot of pain. This'll come around. It's coming around. So I'm playing at theater in Santa Barbara and I'm really in pain. It's a thousand seat theater and the stage hand goes, hey kid, Jonathan Winters is out there tonight. So the whole time it was in my head, like this is not as good as Jonathan Winters. And then he did an hour backstage. It was just hysterical.
He did? Yeah, he was like, you know, all the voices and everything. What the hell was that? You know, he would, you know, John. You're impressive, John. Well, we're going in deep. He did one of these kind of things. We're going to get you crushed. Well, you know, he did all his little voices like Robin Williams. I should be interviewing you. Well, this, I do podcast this for myself as well. Do you mind if I lick this? It's called.
Chevy times. Did you ever meet Farley in the old days? Chris Farley? Yes, sir. I did, and Lorne had asked me to talk to him about the drug issue. Chevy, if you could talk to Chris. Really?
Might help. Might not, but might. I like your, Lorne. It's kind of quiet. Will you do a little, Lorne, first? Yes. It's that thing of like if you could talk to Chris, you know, about drugs, it might be like a really good thing. I love his rhythm. So I did talk to him. And? How'd it go? Well...
He didn't have enough drugs for both of us, so... See, that's a classic. He's been landing all day for me. They're hitting for me. They're hitting. Once you get into his comic frequency, it's like, it's just fun. Our town...
Greg is laughing very hard. You wished you'd stayed longer at SNL. I kind of wish I did a couple more seasons. Oh, Christ. I feel like I'm here longer than SNL. You never set up again. We can adjourn any time. Actually, I do thank you. Yes. Actually, I did. We're now man and wife. Yeah.
I do. That's funny, too. You did like 40 shows. How tall are you? Thank you. Five, eight and a half on a good day. So you. No, actually, the answer to your question. I forgot the fucking question. You could have done movies during the summer and stayed on the show. Oh, you know, I would love to have stayed. And I really mean that. I mean, I left because of a girl. I had a picture of the girl.
And I kept saying, I'm going to marry this girl. Look, she's beautiful. And Lauren kept saying, no, she isn't. And Doug Kenny from the National Lampoon became one of my best friends. Actually became my best friend. And...
That's all I got. Did he write Animal House? Did he write Animal House? Doug, yeah. He was one of the writers. I think that Harold stepped in there too. Harold Ramis. It was always, what's his name who wrote these things, the book or the thing? John. Was it Landis? No. John Hughes. John Hughes. Yeah. But Francis with...
What's the movie I did with Harold? Vacation, honey. Right, thank you. Vacation. Yeah. Sammy and Harold completely rewrote it. Yeah. Oh.
Yeah, you have to rewrite him, Hughes. Oh, I see. Because he's not really, he was not comedic like you guys. He's not Jewish. Oh. Well, if he gives you a blueprint of a great movie, you can fix it. Chevy, during the podcast, puts his hands up like he's holding a loaf of bread and looks at us. A loaf of bread. Show it. His, uh...
That's quite a loaf, I know. It's quite a loaf. Ed wants a slice. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. What is the mic drop question that will blow Chevy's mind? I have a not that
Well, I was going to say, it seems like old times. Grodin was an unsung hero. He's so good. Charles Grodin. Chuck Grodin, yeah. Chuck Grodin. He is. Excellent. That doesn't get enough attention. That was such a great movie. Well, I didn't give him enough attention. You're right. Yeah. Did Goldie. Really, nobody did. You're right. He just doesn't get enough attention from anybody. What about Dudley Moore? Let's bring him out.
What about him? He was in that movie, right? Oh, he was? Did you guys date briefly? Well, not recently. But he was incredibly charming and funny. Dudley was hilarious. I have a great Dudley Moore story. I can't tell it. I forgot what it was. Hey, man. You're doing great. Chevy's name is Cornelius Crane. Cornelius Crane Chase. Grandmother gave him the nickname Chevy.
My nickname is Cornelius. Cornelius Crane Chase. Can you say that? The name is Chevy. I saw that. Cornelius Chain Chase. There's so many all these Chase things. Cornelius Chain Chase. Chevy Chase. There's a street Chevy Chase. Who came first? There's lots of Chevy Chase. There's a lot of Chevy Chase. There's a lot of Chevy Chase. And Chevy Chase here. What can I say? Lauren said Chevy. Chevy. Chevy was an unbelievable talent. And he had the name Chevy, which sort of leaned the tape.
That's a great name. That's what he said? Yeah. And he had the name Chevy? Yeah, he said the name Chevy. That's very funny. It's hysterical. Chevy is such a great name. And Lorne is – Lorne, we're singing your praises and Lorne goes – and the timing. You have to remember the timing of you. There you go. Compliment number two. You do a great Lorne. You really do. I love Lorne. He has such a wonderful rhythm. It's good to be in that world. You didn't like you very much. No. No.
That's what we're getting at. That's not true. That's not that. No, Lauren and I love each other. A little more wider, please. You'd be surprised. Are you a shower or a grower? By the way, nobody knows what this means. Only you made something up in your mind. That's true. I don't know. It's... Janie. Shocked look on Chevy's face because his wife Janie said, I know what it means. Well, I had a great time.
Oh, we're done? I think so. Do you have any questions for us? Yeah, anything for us. Who are we? We're narcissists. We're not really good at this. All right. All right. We're narcissists. Yeah, we want it to be about us. Let me ask you this. Sure. Fasten your, buckle up. That's it. I was going to say, put your hands a little closer together. I'll say. Does this bother you? No, it's the whole thing. Now it's about cock.
See, I'm not thinking. I'm thinking plants. Oh, okay.
You know, wide plant. Yes, totally. No, this is not a cock show. No, it's not even a good show. We never really said. It's not even a good show. No, the bad. This is what the kids love. When it's bad, it's good. We had to go kill. Here, when it's bad, it's great because it's authentic. It's fucking chaos. Awkwardness, the kids love it. Right, Kaylee? It's amazing. Yes. Love the awkwardness. Organized chaos. See, Kaylee knows. See, my wife and daughter.
They're funnier than you guys. They're very cute together. Are you close or are you at war? Oh. Aw. I'm kidding. She's Chevy's daughter. She says, the whole family. The whole family's got game. She says the unexpected answer, which is good. Yeah. You know, Dana, I think we have a connection. We've been friends for a long time. And for this episode of Fly on the Wall, we've partnered with eHarmony.
which isn't us. eHarmony is a dating app to find someone you can be yourself with. We are not dating. I want to clarify that. But the connection is what you want in a dating partner. Just someone like, if you found someone that listened to this podcast, that's somewhat of a connection. And then you sort of build on that. You want someone with some common ground. Yeah. It's not, look, if you want to connect romantically over, you know, super fly or fly on the wall, yeah.
It just makes us happy. You don't want to be watching The Godfather and the person next to you goes, this movie sucks. So dumb. Yeah. You want to connect on all issues and harmonize in life. Similar sensibility, similar sense of humor, and similar sense of sense. I don't like when they watch The Godfather and they're like, everyone in this movie is so old. I'm like, they're 40.
Watch 2001 Space Odyssey. Too much of this movie is in outer space. I don't like it. When do they land? When do they land? Why is that stupid red light acting so silly? Who's friends with a robot? We know dating isn't easy. That's why we partnered with eHarmony because dating is different on eHarmony. They want you to find someone who gets you, someone you can be comfortable with.
Yeah. I mean, the whole idea is you're going to take a compatibility quiz, helps your personality come out in your profile, which makes all the profiles on eHarmony way more interesting and fun to read. So I think this is the goal of dating sites, and I think eHarmony does it great. It's just finding somebody you're compatible with.
So get started today with a compatibility quiz. So you can find some and you can be yourself with. Get Who Gets You on eHarmony. Sign up today. This year, Dell Technologies' back-to-school event is delivering impressive tech with an inspiring purpose.

I can't believe you guys have just turned around now and are talking to my wife and daughter when you have me here. Well, they're nice to look at. And you're, oh, I'm doing you now. That's nice. I like that. We'll wrap it up by saying Chevy is. Oh, just trying to keep the, when I turned 53, my neck said, fuck you. Just my neck went. 53. Are you that old? No, I'm 78. Where are you?
I am. Remember Route 66? Where are you in that area? I'm in that area. Remember the old show, Route 66? Oh, I thought you said Ruth Bader Ginsburg. And speaking of Biden, no joke. Is comedy too PC? I don't know if you see a lot of comedies anymore, but is it too PC?
You mean like movies or TV shows? I've never watched sitcoms ever. Not my favorite. They're still pretty straight down the middle. Seinfeld was pretty great. Yeah. Mostly I don't. I like dramas. I thought Seinfeld was good. Yeah, very good. It's unfortunate that he's nowhere now. It got no syndication. Once he walked off, there was no money. No backhand. Yeah.
We got to get a picture of that so they know what we're seeing. By the way, I just made it up here. I love it. I like it. Finish this sentence. What people don't know about Chevy is... That's a good one. He has... Something's happening. I'm thinking...
What people don't know about Chevy is... Greg, come on down. Why not ruin it? Greg is helpless. What was the question again? What people don't know about Chevy is... He's an amazing jazz pianist. That's right. You're a musician and you're a great pianist.
Thank you, sweetie. That's so nice of you. Do you still practice and play? You have perfect pitch. You have perfect pitch. I do. You play the drums, too. I wonder if you and I— I was a drummer for Steely Dan. What, really? Did you know that? Why did you go into comedy? In college, we started. Damn. And it came out. Yeah. So you really can drum. I'm kind of a pretend drummer. Oh, yeah.
Well, if you're holding down steam and Dan. We were jazz oriented. Okay. So that always was a help. I mean, you know, you got to have independent coordination, which apparently you've never had. Yeah.
My father just came into the room. I won. Who's your favorite jazz drummer? Your father's awful. Daddy? No, daddy, come on. No, no, no, no. We had our childhoods. Us fun folk. Tough dads. We usually have some little bit of trauma. Poke the bear. Is there anybody you want me to do or sign off on? Yeah. Any person? I'll try. Okay, okay. Can you do him?
No, I'm boring. Hey, buddy. There's not much there. That's all I am. Movement tonight. It's a thing he does as a queen. I have one last question. Is Christy Brinkley that ugly in person? How about that? She's unreal. This is crazy, isn't it? That was from? Harold made that up where I go, she's in. Beverly says, is that what you want, honey? She's in the pool over there. Yeah.
She's ugly. She's gross. I know. No, honey, she's ugly. She was in that movie probably five minutes. Everyone remembers it forever. Great. All those movies, it was so fun. Great, great, great. Anyway. Chevy, you're the greatest. I'm going to compliment you.
One of my favorite guests on this podcast. Thank you for coming to my humble mansion. You made our podcast shinier and brighter by gracing us with your presence today. That's it. No, honestly, this is more fun than I've had. Since this morning? That's it. Since you were at 7-Eleven?
It's fun to be sincere and put a comedian. I love you Chevy because you're funny. Now squirm. You guys are very funny too. Thank you. Dana. No, we don't get hurt. We're comedians. We've been attacked on stage. I've been attacked on stage in clubs. Yes. Yeah. I bombed worse than you could possibly imagine. Do you still play the comedy store? Sometimes. Yeah.
Oh boy. I'm playing, are you guys going back east? Do you really? Have you really played there? In the comedy store? Yes, and I can get you in if you can come with me. Oh, our daughter? I'm one of the house parents. Oh, you are? Yeah. Wearing the OR? Yeah. Oh, that's great. That's actually a big job. That's great. I was working in the booth previously. Did your dad teach you? Did you pick it up because you saw your dad playing? Yeah.
So Chevy's daughter, Kaylee, is a pianist at the Comedy Store. Very good, yeah. She's great. She's very good. And the first woman to do it. Breaking barriers. There's still barriers. I said that to Dave a few months ago. I go, there's no woman playing the piano at the store. What is the problem? Will you shut up? You little fairy. You know, I mean, going...
fairy? What are you from the 40s? I'm sorry. I'm telling you. He's lighting the loafers. I'm telling you. You little loafer. Tinkerbell. You little fairy. All right. My dad used to. Are we done? Thank you Chevy. Once the families come in that's going to be the highlight of the podcast. Heather will give you your check and um
A check? Yes, you'll get a W-2 form that you can fill out. We'd like your... She already gave me a check. Sir. Damn! All right. This has been Chevy Chase. Take care. Goodbye. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. Hey, what's up, flies? What's up, fleas? What's up, people that listen? We want to hear from you and your dumb questions. Questions, ask us anything. Anything you want. You can email us at flyonthewallatcadence13.com.
All right, here's our first cue. Okay, all right. I'll read this first one. Good. This is Eliza. That's a good name. Von Dwingelo. Please, I just want to say to people this, please use your real name because these funny names like Elizavon Dingelo, we know it's probably Susan. Elizavon Wienergrabber? No, it's D-W-I-N-G-E-L-O.
Dwing-a-low. Is it too late to change it? Eliza von Dwing-a-low. What are your favorite places to do stand-up? Can you believe what Kanye West said the other day? I'm telling you, Kanye West. He's the only guy who could blow away Trump. I can't believe he said that. Yeah, he's crazy. I can't believe. He's saying things like he wouldn't believe. Shut up, Donald. I want to have orange juice. Okay. Is that Melania? Yeah. Yeah. If I don't do the impression, you just say it's the impression. No one can argue with that.
All right. What's the question, David? She says, what are your favorite places to do stand-up past and present? She also throws in Love the Podcast. That's a good way to get your question picked. Okay. Mine, you probably, I'm going to guess you're going to say Holy City Zoo or Cobb's Pub or something like that.
If I had to say, yeah, past, it would be the other cafe on Carl and Cole in the Haight-Ashbury. It was a laundromat made into a comedy club, 60 seats, giant window with freaks walking by. The whole audience could see. Four washers. And the first time I ever...
Saw my wife and I went back there years later with my son. Now it's back to being a laundromat. And it was almost like a twilight zone. I was standing over there and I said, I saw your mom over here, you know, in 1979.
- Yes. - So that was it. It was called The Other Cafe. Bobcat went there a lot, Bob Goldthwait, Paula Poundstone, Robin would come by. What was your touchstone? Where did you get good? - I used to love, well, my first one was at Chuckles in Arizona. What a hilarious name for a comedy club. They always have one like-- - Did you ever play Sir Laughs-A-Lot? - I did not.
I played Rooster Teeth Feathers. You played Gut Busters or Sidesplitters? This is not a joke. I played Ripticklers in Minneapolis and I went there a lot. So fucking funny. It was called Ripticklers. They're all real. The Dallas Improv was a favorite growing up. The San Diego Improv was a favorite starting out. And I say the Ryman Auditorium I just did in Nashville was a great theater. Oh, I've done it.
and I'm looking forward because I do a theater tour now. And so I hit all these, some of them are just gorgeous old theaters. So I don't know. I still like going up in the store. I didn't go on. I never got an audition there. Louis Anderson helped me get in there. They didn't like me, Mitzi. So I never went in there again, never stepped foot in the comedy store for 20 years. And then Adam Egan. Yeah. I mean, I'm just on today. It lies more into the Allegiance Center in Chicago. I like Staples Center.
I like Staples. Matt Square Garden's a little small for me right now, but I still think it's got a good- You know, it's a little snug, but I like Elbow Room. I'm kidding. I kid. I just played one at this casino and I ran into Kid Rock and I'm like, ah, and he goes, yeah, we're doing this and this. I got the bus. He goes, we did upstate, you know, something and-
I go, "Oh, I just played a casino. "I had to fly to Sacramento and then drive 90 minutes." He goes, "That's it." I go, "No way."
And he goes, yeah. And there's a little like Motel 6, basically like a no-tell motel right next to it. Beautiful casino. But I stayed in the dumpy two-story where the fans would just follow me in and they walk up the stairs. Picture all the way up the stairs. You know, it's got one person. And you slam the door. And then I go, oh, is this your room? I'm like, yep, room eight. And then I just go in. They just stand on the other side of my door. And they're pounding at night. Yeah, they're like, when should we kill him? In the middle of the night? Should we eat first? Yeah.
So then, but he goes, you played that outdoor one? I go, yeah, it's outdoors because it was 106 and I had a long sleeve shirt on. And they said, are you sure you want to wear that outside? I go,
this gig's outside? And they go, yeah. And I go, why do I not know that? They go, it's an amphitheater. I go, is that what that means? Did not know what that meant. And then he goes, dude, that place, I did 17,000 there. You played it? I go, don't you dare. Yeah. You starting to get it, Kid Rock? They just cordoned it off though. I said it wasn't super packed. I mean, there was a little elbow room between people. I drove from Vegas to Reno once because I don't like to fly much with Larry Bubbles Brown and we stayed in this small town and there were cinder blocks for walls in the motel.
Yeah. Cinder blocks. And then the local Yoko's got a, knew we were there and they were in the parking lot. Hey! Yeah. Come on out! You know, but they didn't know where my room was. It was like, you know. Anyway. But you could hear him. Road stories. Thank you. We could hear him. It was scary. Thank you for that question and that's your always long answer. Thank you, Eliza Von Dwingelo.
