name is... Briss Willis. Hello?

3:08

Can I speak to Bruce

3:11

Willis, please? Speaking. Hi, Bruce,

3:13

calling from WFMU Radio, and

3:16

you're on the air. How

3:18

are things going, Bruce? Well,

3:21

not too good, actually. Not

3:23

too good, huh? Yeah, I

3:25

yeah, so things aren't going

3:28

too good for Bruce Willis

3:30

right now No, I lost

3:33

my job yesterday And my

3:35

little daughter Janelle is Quite

3:38

sick. She's actually missed about

3:40

12 days of school So,

3:43

you know, she's way behind

3:45

and I'm not quite sure

3:48

if she can catch up

3:50

at this point. So it's

3:53

kind of stressful. Uh-huh sure

3:55

what's going on with that

3:58

well bruce willis uh... I

4:01

thought you might have some information

4:03

for us on something you're up

4:05

to, you know. What is Bruce

4:07

Willis up to these days? Well,

4:09

I've been walking to work. My

4:11

car died a couple days ago,

4:13

so I'm, you know, just kind

4:15

of hoofing it every day, you

4:18

know, getting the groceries and stuff

4:20

also on the way home. It's

4:22

been a tough week, and then

4:24

I just found out that, gosh,

4:26

we owe $5,000 in taxes, so...

4:29

You know, things are not looking

4:31

too good. For Bruce Willis. So

4:34

things in Bruce Willis's life right

4:36

now are not that good. Not

4:38

really, hey. Sorry to hear that

4:41

Bruce Willis. What can I do

4:43

for you? Your name again, Bruce

4:46

Willis. That's right. Oh, I'm calling

4:48

from the radio. We figured we

4:50

check in and see what was

4:53

up with Bruce Willis. Well, I

4:55

just told you what was going

4:58

on. Nothing else, exciting, no, uh...

5:00

movies or anything? Really can't afford

5:02

to go to movies. We're actually

5:05

watching 24 right now. That's uh...

5:07

We're trying to take our minds

5:10

off what's happening in real life,

5:12

you know. So... Well, Bruce Willis,

5:14

everybody on our phone right now.

5:17

It's exciting to have somebody... I

5:19

guess of your magnitude on the

5:22

phone with us. So, uh... What

5:24

can we look for in the

5:26

future from Bruce Willis? Uh, God,

5:29

I don't know, just try to

5:31

find a new job, I guess.

5:34

And, uh, somehow I guess I'll

5:36

borrow money from my wife's parents

5:38

for the, uh, those taxes, uh,

5:41

hopefully get, uh, Janelle back in

5:43

shape if she doesn't miss it

5:46

anymore school. And, you know, just

5:48

try to find a job. That's

5:50

on the air. Hi, it's Bruce

14:09

Willis. Uh-huh. I know what you

14:11

were doing. You're making fun of

14:13

my name, weren't you? Um... No.

14:15

Yes you were. Admit it. Admit

14:18

what? Admit that you were making

14:20

fun of my name, that's why

14:22

you called me. You probably looked

14:24

me up in the book, didn't

14:26

you? No. Yes, you did? I

14:29

didn't. You jerk? I didn't do

14:31

that. Why'd you call me then?

14:33

Because I was just calling people

14:35

from the phone book, doing interviews

14:37

with them randomly. Oh. And he

14:40

just happened to call Bruce Willis.

14:42

Yes. Yeah, and the whole tone

14:44

of your voice. It just dawned

14:46

on me. It was just like...

14:48

And what does Bruce Willis have

14:51

going on? Any films? I get

14:53

it now. You think you're the

14:55

first idiot to do that to

14:57

me? You piece of filth. Well,

15:00

that was not the intent of

15:02

that, sir. Hey, you want to

15:04

make fun of my son Eddie

15:06

Willis? Who's that? He's my son

15:08

Eddie. He's also got the same

15:11

name as the, one of the

15:13

session guitarist from Motown back in

15:15

the 60s. You want to talk

15:17

to him and put him down,

15:19

too? No, I wasn't putting you

15:22

down or for him down. You're

15:24

a creep. I'm not a creep.

15:26

You're a piece of filth. I'm

15:28

not a piece of filth. I'm

15:30

not a piece of filth. I

15:33

don't preach to me now. What

15:35

do you have to say to

15:37

me now? What do you have

15:39

to say to Bruce Willis now,

15:42

you piece of junk? I apologize

15:44

if you misconstrued what I was

15:46

doing. Just trying to have fun

15:48

more than anything. Probably, hey, I'm

15:50

going to go in the phone

15:53

book and prank called this guy

15:55

with a famous name. I guarantee

15:57

you that's not what I said.

15:59

You didn't call Bert Reynolds, did

16:01

you? No. Yeah, I didn't think

16:04

so. Because we were not... Why

16:06

are you... Sir, I apologize. I

16:08

understand you're having a lot of

16:10

problems in your life, but... You

16:12

stay out of my life. No,

16:15

I apologize for why you, you

16:17

know, for why you could, I

16:19

obviously misconstru what I was doing,

16:21

which was just taking calls randomly.

16:23

We were calling people out randomly,

16:26

trying to see who... Really? Yeah.

16:28

Or some of the other names

16:30

you called. You were the first,

16:32

actually. Really. Uh-huh. Okay. That's quite

16:35

a coincidence, isn't it? What do

16:37

you mean? That the first name

16:39

you call happens to be the

16:41

same name as a famous actor.

16:43

Well, I apologize for that. Okay?

16:46

You know what? What? Apology, unaccepted.

16:48

Bruce? Bruce Willis? You're going to

16:50

get cut down, my friend. Bruce

16:52

Willis, I apologize. Don't think I

16:54

can't find where you're located right

16:57

now. or find where you live,

16:59

where your family lives. Why is

17:01

your back, son? Because you're going

17:03

to get cut down. I apologize

17:05

if you misconstrued what I was

17:08

doing. Like I said before, apology,

17:10

unacceptable. Okay. This is war. Is

17:12

it? You're going to get it.

17:14

Look out. Look out freak. You

17:17

piece of filth. I'm not a

17:19

piece of filth. I'm going to

17:21

cut you down. I'm not a

17:23

piece of filth, and I'm going

17:25

to use your t-shirt as toilet

17:28

paper. That is disgusting. Be warned,

17:30

and I am... I'm not a

17:32

piece of filth, and I don't

17:34

agree with you. You have problems

17:36

if you talk to somebody like

17:39

this. You have problems if you

17:41

come on and talk to someone

17:43

like this. You called me, you

17:45

17:47

people randomly. You did not. You're
