0:36
the Dan Patrick Show. There were reports
0:38
yesterday that's six or maybe
0:40
up to eight MLB
0:43
owners don't want to play this season.
0:46
The reason seems to be strictly financial,
0:48
but still, can you imagine owning a baseball
0:51
team and not wanting to
0:53
see your team play?
0:56
Isn't that the whole point here? I
0:59
understand owners, especially in small markets,
1:02
might really need that cash flow
1:04
and they don't want to lose money on this upcoming
1:07
season, But underneath it all,
1:10
it's not supposed to be about the money. If
1:12
you're rich, you buy a team because you love
1:14
baseball, you love the sport. I
1:17
don't think the public thinks that's the case, because
1:22
it looks like these owners are just looking at the bottom
1:24
line and this is not for the betterment
1:26
of baseball or the fan
1:28
base. Here. This is about
1:31
halves and the have nots, whether it's the owners
1:33
with a lot of money, or it's players
1:35
who are going to make a lot of money. And then you
1:37
have the smaller markets, and then you have a
1:39
majority of the
1:42
baseball players who don't make more
1:44
than a million dollars. They need to come back
1:46
and play baseball. I
1:49
don't know if there's going to be a season. I assume
1:51
there will be. I do think there is a
1:55
I know that there's a conspiracy
1:57
theorists out there, and I
1:59
spoke to one yesterday, but you
2:01
know, he's in the baseball world, and
2:04
I said, what is the what's going
2:06
on here? Now? Trying to understand the commissioner
2:09
is going to have everybody, order everybody to
2:11
come back. And he said, there
2:13
is a strategic timeline that
2:17
will unfold here and you'll see exactly
2:19
what the Commissioner has in mind. I
2:21
go, wait, what does that mean. It's
2:24
going to be a strategically placed
2:28
start of the season, end of the season
2:31
start date, end date, and you're
2:33
going to get a fifty game schedule probably.
2:36
I said, okay, and
2:39
you know and then he said, look, I know you've been negative about
2:42
baseball and you call yourself Danny downer,
2:44
but think of this. Every team
2:46
that plays has
2:48
a chance. When's the last
2:51
time you've started a baseball season where
2:53
you went, we don't have more than
2:55
four or five teams that can win it all.
2:59
Every team will have a chance because
3:01
of it's only fifty games. And I said,
3:03
well, don't doesn't
3:05
every team have a chance every year when they
3:07
start the season. It goes yeah, But after a while,
3:10
you know, the cream rises to the top, and the teams
3:12
that have the most money talent, they're
3:15
able to go out and pick up somebody, they can trade for
3:17
somebody, and these smaller markets can't. I
3:19
said, I understand it. I believe
3:21
that's just called baseball. But the fifty
3:23
game schedule, and you
3:25
know, this guy said, trust
3:28
me, it's going to be a photo
3:30
finish. It'll be great. Get
3:32
baseball back, And I go, okay, how about
3:34
we just get baseball back, right,
3:38
doesn't it. This feels like, hey, you
3:40
know what, We're gonna have the New York City Marathon and
3:43
it starts on the twenty first mile. It's
3:45
gonna be great. Everybody's got a chance
3:48
to win. Okay,
3:50
everybody's gonna be bunched up here going to
3:52
the finish line. All right. So
3:55
that's all I have. That's all I know. And that's
3:57
somebody who admits that their conspiracy
4:00
theorist. They think the commissioner
4:02
has this mapped out exactly
4:04
when he is going to start the season. And
4:07
I went, okay, and
4:10
he's going to have it. It's a fifty
4:13
game schedule. And I said, okay, But
4:15
that's all I know. And I promised you I
4:18
wouldn't waste your time, and you know,
4:20
ranting and raving and criticizing the
4:22
players and the owners and the commissioner. I
4:24
wanted something where at least I could
4:26
try to move it forward the best I can. And
4:28
that's all I got for you today, because
4:31
nobody knows anything. And
4:34
that's scary. I'm not talking about baseball
4:36
insiders. It feels like the owners and
4:39
the players and the commissioner
4:41
and the head of the end of Major League Baseball
4:43
Players Association. I don't know if they know anything.
4:46
I would just say to the commission And
4:49
I don't know if Mike Greenberg said this
4:51
when he had Commissioner Fest on
4:53
the Mothership the other night. I
4:55
don't know if that's the official title, Welcome
4:58
to Commissioner Fest. If
5:00
you say to the Commissioner
5:02
major League Baseball, Rob Manfred, hey,
5:05
how about you and Tony Clark, who head up
5:07
the Baseball Players Association, get
5:10
in the same room, just you two, and
5:12
if you want to have a mediator, we can do that. We
5:14
can have a marriage counselor in there, and
5:17
they're just going to help you in closer
5:19
and closer to what is
5:21
real. How about that, would you?
5:24
I would ask the commissioner, and
5:27
we've asked for him, by the way, but I would
5:29
say, why can't you just get in the room
5:31
with Tony Clark, the head of the Baseball Player Association,
5:35
just you two, and you're not You know, if
5:37
I got argue with my brother, my
5:39
younger brother, my mom would lock us in a room and say
5:41
figured out and then then I'll let you guys
5:43
out. Of
5:46
course, we got to hit each other with sticks
5:48
and things like that. But I don't know, if
5:50
you know the commissioner and the head of the player
5:52
association would be allowed to do that, but you
5:54
know, we'd eventually settle it and we'd walk out.
5:58
But I mean, at least have
6:00
a game plan. And I'm
6:02
told there is a game plan, believe it or not. And
6:05
it's a heavy handed, heavy
6:08
handed game plan by the commissioner,
6:10
is what I was told. I said, okay,
6:12
all right, and my story
6:14
said, I'll hopefully have other details
6:17
for you today, and he
6:19
said, look, this isn't a conspiracy theory.
6:21
This is what is being talked about. That
6:24
he has a timeline of when
6:26
there's going to be a season. I said, okay,
6:30
all right, I'll play naive again. I'm
6:33
good. I'm good at that. I'll just go, okay,
6:35
we're gonna have baseball here, but I
6:37
think we're gonna have maybe
6:39
fifty games. What is happening with these
6:42
six or eight owners? And I heard it wasn't
6:44
that many owners, but there were three two to three
6:46
owners who said, why would
6:48
we come back? All we do is we're
6:50
gonna lose money, We're not gonna be in the playoffs, and
6:53
we're gonna lose money because
6:55
there's no fans here, and
6:57
that's why they don't want to restart the
7:00
season. And I understand that these are two
7:02
or three small market teams owners. I get that,
7:05
But the other owners, you
7:08
know, they're going to get into the postseason and
7:10
they're gonna make money. Baseball just
7:12
signed this long term deal with TNT,
7:16
and that's all about the postseason. I
7:20
try not to pick sides with it, because
7:22
every day it feels like I'm changing sides. I'm
7:25
just trying to illuminate you
7:27
on some of the things that I've heard or
7:30
my feelings on this, having covered strikes
7:32
and lockouts in multiple sports. Here,
7:35
they don't have safety guidelines in place for Major
7:37
League Baseball yet I brought
7:39
up something so simple that I don't
7:41
know if Baseball can do anything about
7:44
it. If you're on first base and
7:46
there's a first baseman there, how
7:49
are we practicing social distancing
7:51
here? How about the catcher you
7:54
go to the plate? Like these are just simple
7:56
things, and I don't know
7:58
how they've been addressed. If you've been addressed, and
8:00
then they came if they'd come up with a solution here,
8:04
all right. I spent far too much time on
8:06
this, and I vowed when I came in this morning,
8:08
I'm going to try to get through the first hour with not talking
8:10
baseball. And I did
8:14
a little bit. All right, mcluvin,
8:17
you got a poll question for me. Okay, so
8:19
we put up an NBA poll question.
8:22
Does going to Orlando and
8:25
eating great food, playing basketball and hang out with
8:27
your friends sound amazing or
8:29
awful? For three months? It's
8:32
three months? Still sixty
8:34
one say amazing? Yeah, I think
8:37
dad, I think parents with young kids are
8:39
really into that idea right now. Three
8:43
months a long time. That's that's
8:45
really a long time. That'd be the good teams for three
8:47
months, So I'll get out in ten months. Yeah.
8:50
I just didn't know if you can remove
8:53
them after they've played for two months
8:55
and they can have the Eastern Conference Western Conference
8:57
Finals in their home arenas, and
9:00
then I don't want to worry about other as
9:02
many people who are going to be there in Orlando.
9:04
But you might say, look, all the safeguards are going to be
9:06
in place, and by then you
9:09
know they're going to be able to have this quarantine
9:12
as well as you could possibly do it, I'm
9:14
guessing. And then when these teams lose then
9:16
they leave, though you would, you're going
9:18
to greatly reduce the workstaff there by
9:21
the time you get to the NBA finals. They're
9:24
so desperate to get these finals in. There's so much
9:26
money attached to hundreds of millions of dollars
9:28
are attached to this. Hundreds
9:30
of millions of dollars. That's
9:32
why they're pushing so hard for a baseball
9:35
season. Yeah, me, club, where do you stand after
9:37
seeing all this? Having sixteen
9:39
teams just played the playoffs in the NBA compared
9:41
to the twenty two that they're bringing in. I
9:43
didn't want twenty two, but
9:46
they're like, they want to say, we want
9:48
to have this as close to normal as
9:50
possible. I just don't know if you
9:52
can. I don't need to bring in twenty
9:55
two teams. Sixteen Fine,
9:57
okay, I'm sorry Zion didn't
10:00
make the playoffs, but you
10:03
know, they want to have a certain number of regular season
10:05
games contractually, and
10:07
you want to get the postseason in, and
10:10
there hell bent on doing that. I brought
10:12
up something in the first hour. In fact,
10:14
I found out something in the first hour. Mark
10:16
Price of the Cleveland Cavaliers not in the Basketball
10:19
Hall of Fame, and he
10:22
was an All American at Georgia Tech. He
10:24
was drafted in the first round he
10:28
I think Dallas drafted. Then he goes to the Cavaliers,
10:30
helped them become contenders,
10:33
and he was the I think Larry Bird was
10:36
the first player who went fifty from the floor,
10:38
forty from three point range, ninety from the free throw
10:40
line. Mark Price was the second one to
10:42
do that. Four
10:46
time All Star. Maybe didn't
10:48
play long enough. I don't know, but I
10:51
was kind of surprised that Mark Price is not
10:53
in the Hall of Fame because it's about college and
10:56
pro. But I
11:01
mean Mark Price was right there with Kevin
11:04
Johnson, John Stockton, Isaiah Thomas, like
11:06
he had a run. He
11:09
had a run where he averaged at
11:11
least fifteen and eight assist a game seven
11:14
year period. So he's right
11:16
there with Isaiah kJ and
11:19
John Stockton. Yeah, Polly,
11:21
but he was a very good player if you're
11:23
a hardcore fan. But he was in such a shadow
11:26
with the players around him at the time, Like you said,
11:28
Isaiah Magic Jordan
11:30
just in his own conference, there are so many more flashy,
11:34
exciting, highlight players. He was
11:36
easily forgotten by the casual fan if
11:38
they had beaten the Bully if they had gone
11:40
to Eastern Conference finals.
11:43
And that was a really talented team, those
11:46
cas That cav team was really
11:48
good. Doherty and Nancy in their price.
11:50
That was a good team, but they
11:54
didn't do a good job double covering Michael
11:56
Jordan. All Right, some phone calls here,
11:58
and then once again we'll talk to the great comedian
12:01
Bill Burr. Also this
12:03
day in a show history. Do
12:06
you have this, Paully, it's ready for later? Okay,
12:09
I don't want to take it. You could do an
12:11
apuant. Well, Marvin,
12:13
who answers the phones here, came up with
12:16
this from this date one
12:19
year ago today. Do
12:21
you want to do this? You want to do this now? It
12:24
was a big deal at the time. Okay,
12:26
all right, this is a one year ago
12:29
today. Kevin Costner
12:31
in studio in New York. Second time he
12:33
had joined us, and he
12:36
went after Paully. And here's how
12:38
it sounded. I watched Field of Dreams
12:40
just again the other day. Everyone loves that movie. It's got
12:42
a lot of legs that could be around forever. But I
12:44
was wondering, when you're getting pitched Field of Dreams,
12:46
when they're pitching you, you were at your peak of stardom.
12:48
Do you ever think this could be really still?
12:52
No, no, no,
12:55
no, we can't do that. Yeah yeah,
12:59
kids, fence. Just
13:02
okay, Polly, you can't say that, and you
13:05
can't say that. Did you see what he said that
13:07
you said, you pete, you
13:10
misquoted me? You were
13:12
okay, wait what did you say? You were?
13:16
So? But don't you push me down?
13:19
But when did you ever think when you got pitched the
13:21
idea for Field Dreams, this could be really silly.
13:24
It turned out fantastic. I can tell you exactly
13:26
where I was when I read that movie. Dan
13:28
and I were talking about it before we
13:31
started the role, and I apologize
13:33
for humiliating you. He
13:35
just got the same treatment as that fan suck
13:40
suck the
13:44
the I apologize to the audience
13:47
too. Uh the you
13:49
can use that word if you just use it sparely, and it's
13:51
just like a sword. I'm
13:54
aware. He
13:56
was talking about For Love of the Game, where he
13:58
plays this picture Billie Chapel, and he
14:00
said that they were shooting the movie and
14:02
they had the extras, and these New Yorkers
14:05
are yelling out, you suck, Billy Chapel,
14:07
suck, And that's not supposed to be in the movie
14:09
there, but the extras were there, and
14:12
I guess shooting late at night, and they were mad, you
14:14
know that they whenever they were getting twenty
14:16
five dollars a day and they're yelling at Kevin Costa
14:18
on the mound in true
14:21
New York form. That was
14:23
this day in show history, a year
14:25
ago today. Yeah. Point, that was a wild
14:28
scene because we got along very, very well
14:30
within the last couple of times we had him in studio. I
14:32
really was trying to say that he had reached
14:35
like a high level. They got it, they got it,
14:37
but it's funny how it didn't come out right.
14:39
And his face was like you could
14:41
see him, he like jerks
14:43
back and he's ready to get well. What was worse when
14:45
mclovin and Joe
14:48
Montana, Oh yeah, because you
14:50
told Joe Montana. You instigated that
14:52
way. I told Joe what
14:54
you had said before on numerous
14:56
occasions, that Joe Montana was the system quarterback.
14:59
Right, Okay, so you never said,
15:01
Hey, whatever you do, don't tell
15:03
Joe Montana. Well, I mean, Steve
15:06
Young obviously walked right in there and did the same
15:08
thing. What does that imply to you? I know and
15:11
Joe Montana, he
15:13
turned on you. You still stand by
15:15
that that Joe Montana was a system quarterback. Yeah.
15:19
I taught by a big Twitter debate who at
15:21
the end of the day, who's gonna have a better career of Russell Wilson
15:23
or Joe Montana. I actually thought of Paulie immediately
15:25
with that one. Joe
15:28
Montana probably
15:31
Russell Wilson threw an interception at the gold
15:33
Mine. What if he hadn't? But he did? What
15:36
was it? It was the terrible play call. It
15:38
was he threw the pass and
15:43
I don't know if they're getting back to another Montana
15:45
went four no. I
15:49
mean, he never threw an interception in a Super Bowl.
15:51
It's Joe Montana. It's not
15:53
even closed. Russell Wilson will have better stats.
15:56
But that's what today's quarterback is about. Better
15:58
stats. Joe Tanna was
16:00
four no in the Super Bowl, never threw an interception.
16:03
But if Russell Wilson and landed with Bill Walsh
16:05
in San Francisco worked that way,
16:09
he landed with Pete Carroll, who's going to go into the
16:11
Hall of Fame? True? What Joe
16:13
Montana gone to Seattle? What would happen
16:16
I wait, don't do this. Tom Brady
16:18
been drafted and by the Arizona Cardinals, he'd
16:20
be out of the league and not ruggedly
16:23
handsomely posing. Oh I know that the
16:26
pictures of Tom Brady in the new Tampa
16:28
Bay uniforms came out. Yeah, you still
16:30
owe us an opinion on that. By the way,
16:33
do you like the new look rugged Tommy? It's
16:35
it's okay. But when you say, is Tom Brady
16:37
handsome more handsome now or when
16:39
he was younger? And I don't want to get into that.
16:42
He just you know, he's a handsome guy,
16:45
and like ruggedly handsome.
16:47
When you get older, you're ruggedly handsome.
16:49
At some point in your thirties, you transfer from
16:51
hot to handsome, and that's that's a good I
16:54
didn't. Yeah, I never did
16:56
that. I never Seaton's
16:59
the only one with boyband good looks. But
17:01
even now that
17:03
that maybe, if that was true, that was ten years
17:06
ago. Yeah. Yeah.
17:08
But and Fritzie, you know, he had
17:10
his run too, about two years when
17:13
you're backage camp counselor fell
17:15
off the Yeah,
17:17
I never had it, but
17:20
you know, Seaton had it for a Seaton had it for a little
17:22
while longer than everybody, but Todd
17:25
had a good run there for probably what three or
17:27
four years? Yeah,
17:30
no, you know you were a beefed up mark ruffles
17:32
late teens, move into the early mid twenties
17:34
and then
17:36
I don't know. All
17:38
right, we'll get to phone calls here and
17:40
uh yeah, the uh the Tampa
17:43
Bay photos of Tom, all
17:45
right, they look good. I want to see a cream sickle
17:47
I don't care about these other Tampa uniforms
17:50
there. That's what I want
17:52
to see. I think we have the only mock up.
17:54

in our street artist Arcy, and I said, put

19:10
alongside Pete Davidson and Marissa
19:12
Tomay, that premiered on
19:14
June twelfth. Big Time Actor
19:17
now no longer comedian, Big Time
19:19
Actor, Billy Burr, Good
19:21
morning, Bill. I don't know about that, but
19:23
yeah, I got a I had some lines
19:26
in a movie that wasn't mine. That's
19:28
a Pete Davidson vehicle. Dan Patt
19:32
you borrow it. I don't know if you steal the movie,
19:34
but you borrow the movie? Is that
19:36
fair to say? I
19:39
don't know. You did well? It was fun. Thank
19:42
you, Yeah, thank you? And Marissa
19:44
Tomay brightens up everybody's day.
19:47
She's probably the best I've ever worked
19:49
with. She was and
19:52
it just was incredible to work
19:55
opposite against and like,
19:59
I don't know, I I don't know how to quite put into words,
20:01
like she was one of those people she put the glasses
20:03
on and they had the wig that she was and she just became
20:05
somebody else, which was very
20:07
intimidating. I was like, my god, I just
20:10
a stupid comic. How am I gonna hang in here
20:12
with this? But uh, yeah she was. She was
20:14
amazing. But how do you work on
20:16
the makeout scenes? You
20:19
don't Radio loves
20:22
It and all the creeps are in Radio? Like,
20:24
how does this work? What was that? Like? Did
20:26
you feel feelings? Um?
20:29
Believe it or not? I had never
20:31
done a kiss scene,
20:33
kissing scene in any acting other
20:35
than like kissing somebody hello real quick when you came
20:37
home? So you know, and it's
20:40
funny, is nobody you just assumed
20:42
that you know what you're doing so um.
20:46
I just remember before we did the first one, she was
20:49
just she just looked at Chuch. She goes, is this like a
20:51
kiss kiss? Or is this like and
20:53
he goes, oh, you know, you're you're you're totally
20:56
head over heels and blah blah. It was just so
20:58
like mechanical that it just
21:01
felt like it was part of the job,
21:03
which so that's what it was. And then not to mention,
21:05
like, you know, the way we were shooting,
21:08
we were in close, so the people like who
21:10
lived in the house next door who
21:12
weren't in the movie, we're all sitting on their stairs
21:14
looking at it. So it was probably
21:16
the least romantic thing ever.
21:19
So you're you're, you know, you're in your head. Oh my god, you
21:21
know it's my breath. Steak is just going to look bad
21:23
and blah blah blah. It's it's nothing, nothing
21:26
like what you think. Well, And the reason why
21:28
I bring it up, I wasn't being creepy because
21:31
I was in a Sandler movie where I have to
21:33
kiss a woman and I'm not script
21:35
it's not scripted to kiss her. Sandler decides
21:37
to throw it into the script and
21:40
and it was awkward. I didn't know
21:43
the woman, and I had no time to
21:45
think about it. And then you kiss
21:47
her, and then I was like, oh god,
21:49
hopefully I don't have to do another take. Like it
21:51
was uncomfortable. That's exactly
21:53
what I thought. And I remember when I got through
21:55
that, I was like, all right, this movie's all downhill from
21:57
there. You know. I got through
22:00
that they somehow liked what I did, and
22:02
now I can kind of continue on. So I
22:04
actually, you know, a lot of being a comedian, people
22:06
will say, oh my god, I can't believe you do that. Out
22:09
of you get the nerve to go up there. I find
22:11
acting is
22:13
takes way more courage because like we
22:16
stand up. I mean, there is the initial the first
22:18
time they call you up there and you hang on for dear life.
22:20
But you have like an act and you you control
22:24
the areas that you're gonna go to,
22:26
so you will is you will create
22:29
a comfort zone up there that you can just stay
22:31
in for your whole career if you want. But
22:33
like you get into acting, it's like to
22:36
have you know, you look at the page going I don't know how to do. I
22:38
gotta dance, you know.
22:40
Opposite Mark Wahlbergers I might to doing something.
22:42
I was like, oh my, what is It's just like, we
22:45
wrote this, we hired you, Now
22:47
you have to do it. Whereas a comedian, I could
22:49
be like, no, I'm not doing that. That's not
22:51
me. That's not part of my brand. Like
22:54
with with acting, it's like, we wrote this, you
22:56
have to go do it. And also
22:58
when they see your performance, and I've seen
23:00
some of the reactions, it's like, oh, wow, he
23:03
can be a serious actor. And I remind
23:05
people, and I said this after I watched the movie.
23:08
If you think of comedy, there's
23:10
a lot of darkness to comedy
23:13
because you live things in your life.
23:16
You just illuminate them to make jokes
23:18
of what happened that could be something bad. You
23:21
know, Sandler doing uncut gems, and they're like,
23:23
man, he can be a serious actor. I'm
23:25
assuming as a comedian you're kind of
23:28
digging deep into dark areas there with
23:30
your family, and then you make
23:32
fun of it. So you are acting
23:34
that way. If you listen to a
23:36
lot of stories that comics
23:38
tell, what they're
23:40
telling you is very what
23:43
happened in the life was very dramatic, and
23:45
they live the drama of it, and then telling the
23:47
story afterwards is just like
23:49
putting the like, oh jeez, you wouldn't listen, you wouldn't
23:51
believe this day. But like as whatever
23:53
they're joking about when it was happening, it
23:55
wasn't funny to them, So you
23:58
know, I don't I don't
24:00
know. It's also kind of funny to me that you would think that somebody
24:02
could actually live a drama free life,
24:05
like nothing bad was going to happen, you have no
24:07
disagreements, just walking around
24:10
with like a red nose and a clown horn all
24:12
the day long. I mean, it's just not what
24:14
it is, but you know what it's like. However,
24:16
people see you then that that's the perception.
24:19
I mean, before I became a comedian, I thought comedians
24:21
were the coolest people in the world. That all they
24:23
did was just go around joking around all
24:26
day, making you laugh every eight seconds.
24:29
You know that thing that a lot of people in the club, the
24:31
crowd do when they come up to you like wow, you're
24:33
like really mellow, wow, You're not Like I was, like,
24:35
do you think I was going to be that guy screaming
24:38
around and jumping up and down, Like how long would that be
24:40
interesting? When I had Judd Appatel on
24:42
last week, I said, can you guys, the reason
24:44
why comedians hang out with comedians is
24:47
you probably don't suffer fools then and
24:49
if you're with like, you know, Jimmy next door,
24:52
he's gonna try too hard to make you laugh. So
24:55
does that white comedians hang out with each other? Well,
25:00
I think just juxtaposition where we are,
25:02
we probably you know, you get to know your co workers, you
25:04
hang out with them and stuff, and my
25:06
thing as long as somebody's cool or whatever, like
25:09
I can hang out with them, and I
25:12
know that I don't want to sit around and talk about
25:14
my job after I'm done doing it,
25:16
the same way a plumber. I don't want to sit there and be
25:18
like so like when you get a busted radiator
25:21
if he doesn't want to sit there and talk about that. So I usually
25:23
whoever I hang out with, I try to they're
25:26
into sports. That's what's great about sports,
25:28
as you can steer it. You know. I remember
25:30
the first time I did your show, we
25:32
went to a break and I brought up
25:35
some sports analogy or something like that,
25:37
and you just looked over at me, and you would like, these
25:39
are the thoughts that consume your world, and I
25:41
was like, oh my god, I just did that
25:43
to him. What is the last thing
25:46
Dan Patrick wants to talk about during a
25:48
break of a sports show? More sports?
25:50
And I did it, so we're
25:52
all guilty of it. Oh, I know. But people will
25:54
do that. They'll go and here, let me give you
25:56
a sports analogy. Like I couldn't understand
25:59
something and there's a sports
26:01
analogy that they have to dumb it down
26:03
for me to go, Oh, okay, now
26:06
I get it. Yeah, I
26:08
wanted your approval that I was officially
26:10
a sports fan. What do you with comedians?
26:12
People want your approval. I guess that they're funny
26:16
or you know, but I don't know. I find
26:18
most part people are pretty cool. We're talking to Bill
26:20
Burr. The movie is The King of Staten Island
26:22
and Pete Davidson. It's a Judd Apatel
26:24
film. Also f is for Family
26:27
at Stars Bill and Laura Dern the fourth
26:29
season of the animated Netflix series
26:32
What sport are you missing the most right now? That's
26:37
a tough one. I would say the
26:40
last two months was playoff
26:42
hockey. Yeah, and I just kind of
26:44
like I'm more in like just baseball. I guess I missed
26:46
baseball. I got excited to
26:49
see some stuff about the NFL. I
26:51
mean, I don't know how this works when you know you have
26:53
a pandemic and the fire
26:56
isn't put out yet, and then they all
26:58
right, we're gonna go out now and
27:00
get the fire going again. I'd
27:03
be honest with you, I don't understand why we have all this money
27:05
to bail out banks, but we don't have an
27:08
additional fund to just get everybody tested.
27:10
You know who has it, you know who doesn't. Whoever has it
27:12
stays home and everybody else can go to work so they don't lose
27:15
their house or their business. You would
27:17
think. I mean, I know it's a behemoth
27:19
trying to run a country. I said that like
27:21
I've ever done it. But you know, you
27:24
know, I know it's not that simple. But I
27:26
hope we're gonna I heard New York is like
27:29
getting tested is getting a lot
27:31
easier, which was the first positive
27:33
news I've heard in a while. So hopefully.
27:37
I don't know. I just don't want to see people go broke.
27:40
Why don't you stick to the jokes here? Bill? Okay,
27:43
did I get over my paper? Do
27:48
you remember what was it? Well? I don't know,
27:50
if it was intimidating, maybe that's not the right word.
27:52
But when you're on with Chappelle, when you're on that
27:54
show or you're on Breaking Bad, the
27:57
magnitude of that and maybe they're not the
28:00
same. But what were those feelings
28:02
like when you were working, you know,
28:04
on those those two shows, Oh,
28:07
the night before, in the in the van ride
28:09
over to set. Yeah, terrified, like how
28:12
to Yeah, you never feel at least
28:14
I don't feel worthy of being there. And
28:19
but then I got this German Irish thing
28:21
where I can just wall off all of my feelings,
28:25
which is bad in my personal life, but in
28:27
my professional life it's good. Like I I
28:29
there's like a place I can go to mentally
28:32
that I just like, all right, I'm just you know,
28:34
one foot in front of the other. I'm just gonna do this scene.
28:37
People want you to, you know, they want it to go well.
28:40
And then it's like afterwards, like the level
28:42
of relief that I have. You
28:45
know, after if I would do stand up on Letterman
28:47
and it went well, just the level of
28:50
relief, I would get so wound
28:53
up emotionally, and then right before I
28:55
would go out there, I would I had this little
28:57
mental game I could play to get myself out
28:59
of that. You know, I used to do the
29:01
thing I would I would walk by the crowd and really look
29:03
at the crowd as they were lined up waiting to go into the
29:05
Ed Sullivan Theater. You know, look
29:08
at that guy with his I Love New York t shirt.
29:10
These are just regular people, Bill, This is just
29:12
like doing a spot at the seller. It's just
29:14
Dave Letterman is going to be sitting, you know, five feet
29:16
away from you. So yeah,
29:19
I don't know if you measure
29:21
yourself with like Chappelle and his brilliance
29:24
and you know, can you be on that level
29:26
or you're gonna be on breakout? That that's very
29:28
easy. Answered, No, not even
29:31
remotely. Davis Davis, Dave and
29:33
then the rest of us are doing stand up. I mean, his
29:36
latest special is incredible. Um
29:40
yeah, well you just you
29:42
know, you look at some great team. I'm
29:44
gonna do a sports talogy, yet not
29:46
for you, because this is how I lived my life.
29:49
Okay. On all sports
29:51
teams, there is there is
29:53
the Tom Brady Joe Montana guy.
29:56
But then you know, then there's also like the guys
29:58
who just like just step up and
30:00
make a play. Um,
30:03
Malcolm Butler. There's those those guys. They
30:06
step up in the moment and then like you
30:08
just look like, I'm just gonna do my
30:10
job. My job is to
30:12
you know, do this these little
30:15
five lines. I got these five lines down.
30:17
Dave Chappelle's carrying the way of this or Brian
30:19
Cranston, Um,
30:21
Yeah, I find you just do your job
30:23
and get and when they say cut, you get
30:26
that, you get you get out
30:28
of the way. Sorry about that.
30:31
That's Bill Burr, comedian joining us on the program.
30:33
Uh, you gotta do something with the background
30:36
there in your crib. I don't,
30:38
Yeah, you do, I don't. Yeah,
30:40
you're like a seventeen year old chick who's
30:42
accessorizing too much. I can barely see
30:44
you. You got dolls, you gotta you just need
30:47
braceless in a nose ring, do
30:49
you? Why don't you send me half of that crap
30:51
and we'll meet in the middle. Do you have bars on
30:53
your window there? What kind of neighborhood
30:55
you live? What kind of Oh
30:58
they're curtained. Oh they look like ours. Yeah,
31:01
I'm a minimalist. Well you want to go
31:03
around, Yeah, let's go around the room. Here yourself.
31:06
I got something for breaking bad fans.
31:09
I usually don't say souvenirs, but this
31:11
shirt was so ridiculous. This is I just have
31:13
this laying here. This is the shirt stagecoach
31:16
shirt or whatever, the cowboy shirt that
31:19
I wore when we robbed the train. Why
31:21
didn't you get it framed? I
31:24
haven't got around to it. All right?
31:26
What else do you have in there? And that was like seven
31:28
years ago or whenever? A
31:30
right, let's show you what else do you got here? I'll show you the
31:32
coolest thing any any fan ever got
31:34
me? Okay, here we go, all right? Um,
31:40
So I did a gigging in Boston. I'm
31:43
a huge hockey fan. And this guy
31:45
who custom paints goalie
31:47
masks. Look at this bur
31:50
oh, it says bur ruin
31:53
bah. And on this side it's got
31:55
look at that, it's got George Carlin, Richard
31:57
pryor uh. On
32:00
this side. I played drums as a hobby. So the
32:02
East in big band days, they would they would say
32:04
br like Buddy rich led zeppein
32:06
because I like John Bonham and Steven
32:09
Adler's skull from the Appetite
32:11
for destruction. And
32:13
then on top I'm a Ford
32:16
guy, I also say go
32:18
you know what yourself at the end of my podcast.
32:20
So the F word is written like the Ford logo.
32:23
Can't have that. And on the back he's got a Patrise
32:25
O'Neil, the greatest comed guy.
32:29
Isn't that incredible? That is awesome? And
32:31
he just gave it to me and I
32:33
could barely thank him and he left.
32:36
Who's over your right shoulder, that's
32:40
Angus Young. That's Angush Young on
32:42
the High Voltage Tour. That's Bobby your
32:45
And down there, that's at the Comedy Store
32:48
with Dana Carvey,
32:51
uh, Norm McDonald and David
32:53
Spade, three of my
32:56
huge comedy heroes. That was my favorite
32:58
cast of SNL and night.
33:00
We were all down there, I think it was David
33:02
Spade show, and
33:05
he put me on in the main room comedy store
33:07
back when you could do stand up comedy in front of
33:09
human beings, and you
33:13
know, we went down there just it just so happened that there
33:15
was a photographer down there and he snapped that picture
33:17
and that is my my favorite.
33:21
Like, you know, other than my my close
33:23
friends that I started with, I just if
33:26
you told me that I was going to get to work with any of them on
33:28
any capacity, I would have
33:30
been, you know, over the moonment. Don't
33:32
get sentimental. I mean, once again, stick to the jokes
33:34
here, Bill, you're getting heavy. Can you stop
33:37
taking your emotionally like
33:39
your childhood out on me. I'm sorry you weren't
33:42
hugged as a child. There. I have things
33:44
and I enjoy things. Why
33:47
are you hiding so much on your own show?
33:49
That's what I wanted if I was a therapist. This
33:51
is a very guarded set that you have all
33:54
of this stuff. Do you need to prove
33:56
to people that you're that love that they send you
33:58
all these dolls? Yes? Yeah,
34:02
but I got I got a commercial
34:04
break. Here has to break up against the commercial break
34:07
Lea. I'd love to spend a lot of the best way
34:09
to diffuse when somebody's coming at you disagree
34:11
with? What do you do that because you're insecure? Yes,
34:13
yes, yes i am. I'm all the above.
34:16
Absolutely. Hey, congrats
34:18
on the film and uh love the mustache
34:21
looked hot and uh, you
34:23
know, we've both had one thing in common. We've
34:25
both made out with Merrissa Tomay.
34:27
Well there you go, you know, and I felt
34:30
that warmth during this this interview and yours
34:32
was in a movie.
34:34
Thank
34:37
you? Bill. All right, that's Billberg.
34:39
The movie is King of Statn Island. We'll take a
34:41
break back after this. Thanks for listening to

35:00
Yeah, the King of Staaten Island. I liked it. I thought
35:02
Bill Burr was really good. Marissa Tomay really
35:04
good. Uh, it's really
35:06
based on Pete Davidson's like loosely based
35:09
on Pete Davidson's life. I thought
35:11
that some of his friends in the movie were really
35:13
good, and I wanted to see more of them. But
35:16
the King of Staaten Island. A couple of
35:18
phone calls here, Roger
35:20
in New York. Hi, Roger, what's on your mind today?
35:23
Hey? What's up? Then? So, I know you don't
35:25
want to talk baseball, but I do. I just gotta
35:27
bring back up. Okay. So I'm
35:29
pretty I'm definitely a being
35:32
angry. I mean, in terms of the season
35:34
coming back. I feel like the MLB Players
35:36
Association and the owners they're not
35:38
only not seeing that at eye, but I feel
35:40
like the financials behind it, he's just not
35:43
like it's not all add it up. So
35:45
I find that to make things
35:47
better, I think that the Players Association
35:49
has to alrighty,
35:55
very dramatic pause there, though,
35:58
thank you for holding for forty minutes. Right, He's
36:00
where MLB is basically right now anyway,
36:03
Walter in Florida joins us Hi Walter, how
36:06
are you great? Great?
36:08
Ay? Dan. You know this might come across as
36:10
blasphemy, but I think this is a great opportunity
36:12
for baseball to get its viewership
36:14
back by you know, make it an eighty two
36:17
seasons for now and forever, play
36:19
only in the summer. Everybody takes
36:21
a pay cut, and you you know, make it
36:23
affordable for a family afford to go to a
36:25
game again. You know, my kids,
36:28
you know, they're in college, and I thought, oh, they would
36:30
love to play baseball. They just for board. It's
36:33
not the top of the entertainment food
36:35
chain. So knock it down. Eighty two games,
36:37
keep it short, keep it in the summer, don't compete with
36:39
football. And yeah they take a pay cut,
36:41
but a family ford and go see a game again. Yeah,
36:43
but they don't care about that, Walter. They
36:45
don't care, and thanks for the phone call. They don't.
36:48
These players are making their money.
36:50
They feel like they've earned that money. These owners
36:52
are making their money, and they continue
36:55
to price gouge you there until you
36:57
stop going. And I've
36:59
said for years now, I
37:01
don't know why owners don't make it more
37:04
fan friendly to get more people in younger
37:07
fans to experience a baseball
37:09
game. We all had that one,
37:12
that first baseball game, and we can all
37:14
remember it. But you're not giving
37:17
these kids that moment because
37:20
it costs so much just parking,
37:22
like just getting in the door, you're
37:25
down a Hundy and then everything
37:27
that goes along with going there. But if
37:29
you set up special areas and
37:31
you say, hey, if you get straight a's, you
37:34
bring your report card in or we'll
37:36
put you out there, you know the tickets
37:39
are going to be three dollars,
37:42
five dollars at the moment. Whatever it is, get
37:44
you into the ballpark, because I want
37:46
repeat business. And part of baseball
37:48
is it's about the same
37:51
people going to games and watching games.
37:53
You don't have that curiosity factor, and
37:56
that's where you're thinking long term, bigger
37:59
picture here, and baseball
38:01
is getting older, and
38:04
I'm talking about the fan base Baseball
38:07
getting older and not wiser either. Alan
38:11
and Los Angeles. Hi, Alan, would you have for me today?
38:13
Yeah, good morning, Dan. This is Alan from LAM
38:16
hardcall Baseball Fan. I just have a
38:19
a idea for a T shirt
38:21
or any banks let's play one,
38:25
you know. And also Buster
38:27
Only's article was so
38:30
great. He said that Baseball just would have signed
38:32
that agreement in March. They would have been the only
38:34
team and they would have been goodwill
38:37
ratings and for the long term,
38:39
and they are ruining baseball for the long term.
38:42
And as a hardcore baseball fan, I feel
38:44
so bad. Yeah, I don't have answers,
38:47
and thank you, Alan. I'm just like everybody
38:49
else. You know, it's just frustrating.
38:52
It is because baseball was
38:54
really important to me. It's becoming
38:56
less and less important because it's
38:59
not really big ball. You either hit
39:01
a home run or you strike out. Baseball
39:04
has no movement anymore. And I
39:06
could understand, you know, if if I've
39:08
taken my kids to a game I made I
39:11
didn't make them, but I made sure that they went to
39:13
see Derek Jeters last year. I
39:15
wanted them to just so they could tell,
39:18
you know, their kids, grandkids,
39:20
they saw Derek Jeter played Yankee Stadium. I thought
39:22
it was that important. But
39:24
there's no movement and they're there. You can
39:27
tell like they're restless. They're teenagers at
39:29
the time, and they're going, what's you know, what's a
39:31
big deal. Now. My son's a baseball fan,
39:33
but my daughters are like, uh, you know, it's kind of
39:35
boring here, no movement whatsoever.
39:38
And that's another problem. Hey,
39:41
if we give everybody what they want, they want
39:43
home runs, everybody's gonna be watching,
39:45
everybody's gonna want to tune in. And that's not the
39:47
case. Mark
39:50
Grace was on yesterday. He said, you know, there's
39:52
never a hitting run anymore, there's
39:54
never a suicide squeeze. You don't give yourself
39:56
up going to the other side of the endfield. And you might
39:58
say, well, those are boring. That's movement.
40:01
Watch a baseball game if when they
40:04
come back and how much movement
40:06
there is or there isn't. It's
40:08
I can throw ninety seven and your launch
40:11
angle is to hit a home run. That's all it is. It's
40:15
not exciting too
40:18
much of a good thing. Hey, people want
40:21
home runs. Okay, we'd like to have
40:23
a little bit more and you
40:25
don't have that, h Jesse in La
40:27
Hi Jess, heype
40:31
five ten to a hard one sixty nine pp.
40:36
I've been waiting for you could build her back on for a long
40:39
time and that all the creeps
40:41
are on the radio line is exactly favorite.
40:44
He's great if if if
40:46
you're cruising around Netflix, check out of the older stand
40:48
up show Let It Go. You absolutely love
40:51
it. But but my
40:53
comment on the MLB started to do this year
40:55
is, but let's progect the value of all MW
40:58
teams. As of late twenty nineteen, according
41:00
to the website stadium Talk are the Baltimore Oils
41:02
at two point one billion. Those state
41:04
players are leade minimum five
41:06
hundred and sixty thousand. And I'm more than a casual
41:09
baseball fan. I'll come back to watch, but
41:11
I believe, as you say, they're going to lose even more
41:13
money in the long run by not coming back when
41:15
it comes to gate entry because it just looks terrible
41:18
to the everyday person. Thanks a lot, and thank
41:20
you, Jesse. I was fortunate growing
41:22
up that if you got straight a's,
41:24
and granted I didn't, but people
41:26
in my house. Did you got tickets
41:28
to the Reds? And I remember going to
41:30
the Padres game. The Padres weren't any good,
41:32
but I got to go see the big Red Machine in
41:35
Cincinnati at Riverfront Stadium
41:38
and it didn't cost that much and
41:41
my dad took us and I just
41:43
and it stayed with me. We were in center
41:46
field. That's where they put the straight
41:48
a kids or those who knew the straight
41:50
a kids, and they weren't great seats. I
41:52
was in the ballpark. We went there for batting
41:54
practice. I got. I just
41:56
remember everything about it.
41:59
It was sensory overload and I
42:01
never forgot that. And that's what baseball
42:03
is missing out on. Get another generation
42:06
in the ballpark to experience
42:08
it. And it's affordable so Dad
42:10
can take them. Dale Junior coming up.
