You were busy producing the show.
It came under your.
You understand what we need togo to Mexico.
Yeah, that's what that was.
Shine Ruth, you should livelong and be well with Mashiach

I'm in the green room .
How did this get to you if notthrough you?
I got it.
I didn't read the letter.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I'm in the green room .
How did this get to you if notthrough you?
I got it and I threw it in thebag.
Someone gave me a letter.
I threw it in the bag.
I didn't know it was to readbefore I go on the show.
So the magician that broughther came backstage and he's
security breach.
He goes hey, there's a womaner,that's, that's.
That's what I'm there for.
That could be the whole reasonI'm in Mexico for is to just say
(09:45):
hi to her.
But he was doing magic thewhole way, so he was there.
I made a fireball come away andthe coin disappeared.
Yeah, I, I I he's a veryspecial guy and took care of her
, but he has no idea that I Ihate magic.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
I famously hate, magic but, I, love him.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
I love him.
I hate magic.
Can I tell you something?
Yeah, on the last episode wediscussed the possibility of you
making an album, oh, and I gotseveral messages of people so
excited by the idea of a Modialbum Wow, and offering to help
(10:23):
and like have Modi do it.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
And people also went ape shit for that clip we just
posted of you singing withDershowitz and your old cancer.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Is there a clip of me and him singing no, yeah, but
me and him actually singing.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
He has no idea what's going on in his actual
Instagram.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So okay, so okay, so amazing what's going on in his
actual Instagram.
So okay, so amazing that wehave Rabbi Bellino here, who,
besides being my rabbi, is alsoa vocal coach and a music coach
and brutally honest with me.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
To the point.
Let me explain to you, Let metell you how brutally honest.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
He is with me when we did the three shows in the
Beacon on the third one, theThursday night, when I said to
the audience this is my thirdshow and thank God I have
Shabbos tomorrow.
And then I went into a littlevishamru, this little prayer
which was unnecessary.
Completely completelyunnecessary.
Plus, I've already been onstage for an hour and 10 minutes
(11:20):
.
My voice is not at a placewhere I should be singing now.
And I said to him how was thevishamru?
And he says to me the goodthing was, you didn't go off key
.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
That was the I said that, yes, I love you, modi
Rosenfeld, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
No, brutally honest, brutally honest.
Oh my God, wait, wait, wait.
I'm so sorry.
No, brutally honest, brutallyhonest.
Oh my god, wait, wait, wait.
One one I was davening.
I was the chazen and I was so.
I was so in the zone two, inthe zone two, in the zone, and
we got to the prayer of like, oh, it's like the highlight of the
(12:12):
.
So how does that begin?
What's that?
It's, anyway, I was so thefirst.
It's like four lines that yousing and then the congregation
repeats after you.
I nailed the first three likemy voice.
(12:36):
I was blown away by myself.
And then the last one.
I made such a mistake, I justlike cause, I was too in it.
I was closing my eyes thinkingI was.
It was just, I made a mistakein the wording and then god
turns me.
Well, at least you're keepinggod on his toes on your gift,
right?
Not you cursing on my podcast,not my rabbi cursing on my
(13:03):
podcast sorry take you need toget over it.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I, I cannot mark every episode explicit, because
there's always an s or an f bomb.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Dina's father, rabbi gross, told me no nivel pet, do
not, not curse, not on stage.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Nivelpet is an amazing Yiddish phrase.
It's a great drag name.
Welcome to the stage.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Nivelpet no that's a good time.
Pet is mouth and Nivel is a.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
That's a good Dirty Dirty yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
What are our drag names Go?
Oh, are you crazy?
We have a million.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
I have a million.
I have a million Mazel Top.
That's good, that's very goodLuxon Kegels.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Lisa Lisa Honda, that's wait.
My favorite one is Nina Levine,9-11.
That never landed.
I never land, but I love it.
I don't care mine is serotonin.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
alright, what was your?
Yours is?
I never land, but I love it.
I don't care, mine is serotonin.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
All right, what was yours?
Yours is Periel.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Period.
She's already in drag.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Mine is Nivelpeh yes, by the way, it's good.
Yes, that's your drag name.
Nivelpeh, yeah, nivelpeh.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Oh, my God, that was so funny, and that's also the
title of this episode Nivel PatSure.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Dina's father said to me on stage no, don't curse,
it's not necessary.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
There is a very strong push by some of the great
minds of comedy that say thatcursing brings down the level of
comedy, that it's like an easyway out.
So you're in very good company.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I kind of agree with that, but sometimes a
well-placed curse word is justfunny.
I think you're right.
I think you're saying it needsto be like peppered with curse
words and like gratuitously,just like explicit but sometimes
a well-placed like there's afluctuation, there's a correct,
because they're intensifiers,right?
Speaker 4 (15:02):
So you have to intensify at certain points and
then you can bring it down andyou can use your words and you
can use your language andexpress yourself without it.
So for example, it gets thepunch in.
It's very important.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yes.
So, for example, in my show Ido this thing like in the middle
of the show Now I've alreadydone a half hour.
They've seen it is a crazyenergy, great energy in the room
and I haven't cursed.
And then I do this thing whereI ask the people who are married
for a long amount of timewhat's their secret?
And one guy goes I love her andI go, you're full of s.
And they die because they'relike, they're not expecting,
(15:35):
especially during crowd work.
All of a sudden he's droppingan s bomb, you know, and then
that's it.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
But like but it's really even a bad word.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Yes, but it's yeah no , it's not a good word, it's not
a great word to be, it's youknow you don't curse on stage,
do you in shul?
Speaker 1 (15:48):
yeah, no, no on the bema on the bema well, moody's
on the bema bema, I just met heranyway he'll be here all week.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
He'll be here all week.
No, his, his, his sermons areamazing.
He's so much smarter than hegives you credit for.
He's so smart and he pulls inthings and sometimes he does,
you know, like that bit I usedto do.
There's, there's bits youcomics do like that I love and I
know it's not good for the set,but he does things like I could
(16:18):
tell us for him where he bringsup all these past, like
Mephorshim, all these pastcommentators that like no one's
ever heard of, no one's everheard, and it's and the audience
and the crowd that we have inthe show.
It doesn't need but he's doingit for himself.
He's like he's giving this he'slike he's giving this it's.
(16:41):
He's so smart, he's very, verysmart, and he is very smart and
we're very interactive.
We've been heckling you lately.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Yeah, by the way, you a lot you built me up to handle
hecklers so well.
I mean that's, yeah, that bythe that's, that's a huge skill
yeah, also something that doesnot happen in church heckling no
problem are you crazy?
Not take.
Not taking someone like head on, but like using a crowd.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
There's no interaction in church.
There's no interaction.
They sit there, they sit inpachad.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Here's the Yiddish word of the podcast Zitrd in
pachad Zitrd.
When you sit there, you'reshaking in pachad, in fear, in
fear In the church, and Ihonestly think everybody sits
there like they're one of thefounding members everybody's got
their hand on four chairs.
They bring a little somethingto drink in church.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
They're sitting there , scared to death, unless you're
like in a Baptist church, likea Southern Baptist.
But the ones you brought me tono, no, the.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Catholics.
They're sitting dying of fear.
The guy's speaking in Latin,they have no idea what he's
saying, but the vibe isn't like,okay, this guy that's on this
cross is is.
Is he died for our sins?
So like, oh, thank God, he diedfor our sins, so we're covered.
It's more like this could beyou.
It's more the vibe, this couldbe you up there.
So just pull it.
(17:53):
So everybody's they're scaredto death, but it's only 40
minutes, then they're out ofthere, it's not 40 minutes, but
that's because you have a coolsynagogue.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
If you're going to an ultra-Orthodox place, the vibe
is not quite.
They're also talking.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
I don't think it's a question of the extent of the
Orthodoxy.
Okay, I think it's part of theculture and it's part of how
serious they take themselves,and that doesn't necessarily
correlate with religiousenthusiasm.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Not sure that was the answer that I would have given
for you.
He has a cool synagogue becauseit's his synagogue.
He's not answering to a board,he's not answering to a
president, he's not answering tosome member that made a big
donation and thinks now he's incharge.
It's his synagogue.
He runs the synagogue in theshow, kind of like a Chabad
(18:50):
rabbi type of a thing, wherehe's in charge of the yeah, it's
much closer to a Chabad house.
It's much closer to a Chabadhouse and so that's why it's
such a cool synagogue, becauseit's under all the rules of
Orthodox.
But go ahead, do your thing.
Do your thing.
You want to sit?
There's a massive synagogue.
So if you and your friends wantto sit in the back and talk,
thank God you're here.
(19:10):
If you want to come only forthe meal after the lunch, go
right to the meal and that's it,but you went there before.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Gav was even the rabbi.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Yes, Of course, yeah, that was always your synagogue.
For like, yeah, for like 20years.
For more than 20 years, youcrazy, more than 30 years.
I moved to the Lower East Sidein 96.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Okay, so who was the rabbi before?
Why don't we tell your originstory, since you're our guest?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Oh God really.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
I'll tell the story.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I'll tell I was in LA when you came on.
Speaker 4 (19:45):

Speaker 2 (19:45):
So we our synagogue.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
No, I don't think so.
Yeah, yeah yeah, you had justmoved back.
I had just moved back.
Can you guys get the?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
story together.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
So our synagogue.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Our synagogue is the Sixth Street Synagogue.
It's an amazing shul.
It's on Sixth Street and it wasin the heart.
It used to be a church.
We've spoken about this.
It used to be a church andeverybody died.
And then you came on.
You came on For a while.
We didn't have a rabbi and JackLeibwall who was running the
shul.
We were kind of happy with nothaving a rabbi.
(20:19):
We ran the services.
Jack went up every saturday andmade a three minute dvar torah
uh sermon for three minutes,literally three minutes.
In this week's parsha, abrahamtold um yakov this and this and
this is so.
You can look at it done, sitdown and we continue the service
.
We were out by 1045.
(20:40):
Oh my God, Me and Jack werelike this is not going to last
forever.
Let's enjoy this for now.
And then he began to auditiondifferent rabbis, and then we
had Rabbi Berkowitz.
And then we ended up with yourMashiach energy.
You had a synagogue that waslosing a building.
We had a synagogue that had nomembers and you brought it all
(21:00):
together and it's an amazingplace.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
Those were rough times though, those like first
few months, just culturally, ofbringing two shuls together.
I remember like one of thethings I did, I changed the size
of the plates at Kiddush.
I made them smaller so that itwas like less of a lunch vibe
and more of like cocktail hour,and that was like.
That was like I invaded Kuwaitand changed the currency.
(21:25):
I mean like it was like peoplejust didn't know what.
Like it was like how am Isupposed to have a role on this?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Oh my gosh, maybe you're not no, you, you, yeah,
so you really, you really did abig, a big everybody there.
Everybody feels welcome, gay,straight, trans, everything is
there.

Speaker 3 (22:22):
Do you prefer spending time in Connecticut,
the city, or Fire Island?
Where are you the happiest andmost comfortable?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Oh, that's an easy one.
It's a very, very easy one.
I'm happiest wherever Leo'shappy, which is Connecticut and
Fire Island but more Connecticut.
As long as my husband Leo'shappy, and which is Connecticut
and fire Island but moreConnecticut, I, I, I, as long as
my husband is happy, I am happy.
I can tell you that with ahundred percent.
You can, you, you admit thatyou?
(22:50):
admit what I don't need to be ina certain place my happiest
place, by the way, is a greenroom before a show sucking on a
Celsius.
I'm about to do an hour and 20minutes of comedy.
That's my happiest place in theworld but physically, to be
wherever leo's happy and calm,and that makes me.
That makes me happy.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Lately our apartment building is.
Everyone seems to be doingrenovations, oh god we so.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
So I'm trying to figure this out.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
Is there not a board that controls?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
it is, but there is.
It's a co-op.
The renovations doesn't botherme at all, the renovations.
Actually, when I hearrenovations happening in the
apartment I'm like wow, I hearwhat you're saying, modi, but
it's literally the last.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I would say year and a half it's been constant,
non-stop One ends and one begins.
It's insane.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It's nothing to do with our building, it's
something with us.
Currently is vibe wise.
We are in.
I don't know why we are notgetting a break from noise.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Oh yeah, I told Modi.
A witch put a curse on us.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Some, somebody in iron horror, which I think I'm
going to start organizing stuffand re and fighting this.
There's a noise iron horrorevil eye on us and it's not.
I think if we, if we move to abuilding on fifth Avenue
tomorrow, there'd beconstruction on top of us.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Yeah, I believe you.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
That's how bad it is.
We walked, oh my God.
So we land from Las Vegas.
We left at like 12 in theafternoon, we land here at nine
or whatever the hell.
It was awful, awful.
And we're getting off the planeand you're like off the plane,
you're grossing.
You're off the plane, yourtuchus is all.
And you're grossing, you'reitchy, sweating, sweaty.
And then, like, right when weget to the, to the, get off the
(24:24):
gate and go out, the alarm goesoff like there's such a strong
eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
And I'm like wow, what the?
I screamed, I lost it.
That noise happens when someoneopened the door, someone didn't
do their job, right that thatis happening.
A plane landed, people arecoming off.
They should be.
It was so loud and I was likewe, we, we are in a noise, iron
(24:48):
horror in an evil eye noise andwe just can't see.
But the real problem is thedoor.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Mexico city, in Mexico city, we had to move
hotel rooms.
There was a like.
The construction was.
There was a construction siteright outside our room.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
They moved us they moved us.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
There's so many little things that happened
where I'm like Modi.
A witch put a curse on us.
I don't know who.
We pissed off.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
The construction for some reason doesn't bother me
because we we've done crazyconstruction in our.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I did two, two reconstructions in my apartment,
the fact that there's beenconstant construction.
So in my apartment.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
That doesn't negate the fact that there's been
constant construction, so when Ihear construction I'm like, oh
my God, I'm so happy that theirworkers showed up, because when
you're doing construction in aManhattan building, you pray A
that they get there on the righttime, bring the right things.
They're available when theother guy, when the plumber's
available and the electrician'scoming so they can do the same
thing.
Someone's having a good daythat their correction is
(25:38):
happening.
It's the dogs that I'm in shockabout.
The dogs.
That people.
How dare you, how dare you, howdare you control somebody
else's quality of life bybringing a dog?
If you're living in a buildingwith a five inch wall between
you and your neighbors, youcannot have a barking dog.
You do not have the right tolower somebody else's quality of
(26:01):
life.
That's what blows my mind.
That's what blows my mind.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Have you had tense moments with your dog, oh are
you crazy?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah, I have this fantasy oh so many fantasies.
I have a fantasy that I buy oneof those air horns and I go and
I knock on their door and asthey open it, I just put it in
their face and I just hold itfor like 30 seconds my fantasy
is there's something you thatyou you can like, a whistle that
you humans can't hear, but thedogs can, and the dogs and like,
(26:30):
and they can just watch the dogyeah why don't?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
you guys get like uh, some like poison or something
like treats what.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I'm not not doing that.
We're killing beautifulcreatures.
What's wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
No, but the people.
They're not beautiful.
If you saw these dogs, they are.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
These are disgusting, miserable looking dogs that
they got for free, by the way, Ihave.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Not that they got for free.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I love animals.
I love dogs.
No more in Manhattan.
There should be a great.
Whoever has dogs now they'regrandfathered in.
But if I was mayor, no moredogs in Manhattan, they're.
They're not fun for anyone.
The dogs are not having fun.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
I'm not convinced the owners are having fun.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
The dogs are all looking miserable.
There's crap all over thesidewalk everywhere, all the
time it's not feasible, like ifyou don't have a yard or outdoor
space, you shouldn't be allowedto have a dog.
How dare you.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
So there's a guy on our floor and he not on our
floor, two floors down, but youhear a crystal clear.
It goes right into ourapartment Through the ducts and
so he went to knock on theneighbor's door and the neighbor
is walking around his own housewith earplugs.
He said how do you deal withthis?
He goes and then like, and hegoes the entire floor.
Underneath Our building is thisold building that was made out
(27:39):
of like, like those cementthings, so it's hollow in the
between and so it travels, thesound travels in the building.
Crazy.
But I really don't even thinkthat.
I think if we moved to someluxury building, same thing it
would be, the same thing wouldhappen.
I can't explain.
The other day I'm sitting,we're sitting, in a suburban,
(28:00):
beautiful car where justeverything's chill.
Where were we?
We were in, I think we were.
No, I'll tell you.
I'll tell you where we were.
We were coming, we were inVegas, and so we were in the
suburban and we were leaving andall the the sphere, traffic and
all was going on there and Ijust wanted to get some air.
I don't want the air, I wantedair.
(28:24):
I opened my window down andright, then a police motorcycle,
just go it's almost likecomical.
I was like it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
It's like we'll be walking down the street in New
York and it'll be normal, likenot loud.
And then the second we get to acorner, we turn the corner.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
There's like a jackhammer and he's waiting for
us to get there.
And then he hits the button andwe're like but like walking
down the street and theambulances, put his thing on
right where we.
He could have done it before.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Okay, so what is this about I?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
don't know.
I don't know.
We did something, we didsomething, no, or maybe we need
to do something.
Do something, maybe it's weneed to do something, but I
don't know what it is.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
If anyone has some voodoo witchy stuff they could
recommend, I'm all ears.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I'm all ears, any voodoo not voodoo, but any, you
know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, anything, any brachasthat you know could be made or
some kind of I don't know, somesort of organization.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
You can make a donation to.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
I wish there was.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I would give them so much money right now Speaking of
Fire Island versus Connecticutversus the city, something that
is always kind of surprising tome.
When we interact with people atthe shows or at the meet and
greets and stuff, people don'tknow where we live.
No, thank God, which is kind ofcool, because they're like oh,
you're in LA, right.
We're like, no, you live inIsrael.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
You're in Israel.
I thought you were in Israel.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
No, we don't live in Israel.
Oh, you live in Brooklyn.
No, we don't live in Brooklyn.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Like no one knows exactly where we live.
It depends where they are onour Instagram, where the last
post they saw so you know, hey,flying from LA to wherever.
So they think, oh, he lives inLA.
Flying from Mexico, oh, youlive in mexico?
Speaker 3 (30:00):
yeah, we live in manhattan.
That's our official address.
What's your favorite place?
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I mean, connecticut is just because it's it's new,
it's we've, it's really specialand I sometimes, when we're
traveling and we're in anairplane, I just think that that
house is standing there with acar in it that's mine and it's
just sitting there and all Iwant to do is be there, and
we'll be there soon, though wehave some downtime I guess in
(30:24):
the summer coming up.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, but that's a good goal.
It's a good goal to be.
What's your favorite place tobe?
Where's your favorite place Forme?
Speaker 4 (30:31):
Yeah, because you have Manhattan, yeah you have
multiple paths and you have two,oh, pennsylvania, I don't know.
I really I really like back andforth and I know that's like
strange, like people like to besettled.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I like to have so many options that's so wonderful
.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
I love TNEC.
I love having space.
I love being part of a Jewishcommunity that I have no
responsibility for.
I'm completely anonymous.
No one's calling me for a Shivaminion no one.
I go to the supermarket.
I know no one.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
It's the best.
Speaker 4 (31:07):
It's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
That person we met at Brian Kelly's book launch party
that had the story about theTehillim group, was that in
Teaneck?
Yes, oh, boy, did you hearabout this no, not Tina can I?
Speaker 2 (31:21):
say it Anglewood.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Cliff Anglewood we met this person, who's a
prominent person, who is ontelevision, who was very
charismatic.
I'm not going to say her name,mostly because I don't think I'm
going to get it right, but shecomes up to Modi and like she
starts putting it together.
Okay, this is a Jewish comedian.
She's like, I'm not Jewish, butI live in Englewood and I'm
(31:43):
part of the Tehillim group.
On like WhatsApp.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Tehillim group is.
This is when someone's sick orthere's a situation in the
neighborhood that needs prayer.
So Tehillim is Psalms, thePsalms that David wrote the book
of Psalms, and so everybody ison this chat and they discuss
which Psalm they're all going toread to bring energy of prayer
to a situation like somebodybeing sick or somebody just
about to get married orsomething whatever.
(32:07):
That's the Tehillim group, thePsalm group.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Yeah so she's on this WhatsApp chat.
I'm not Jewish, but I'm in thisTehillim group and I love it
and she goes.
Oh my gosh, the other daysomeone accidentally put an
adult video of themselves in theTehillim group.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Yes, oh, so their prayers were answered.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Their prayers were answered.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Everyone was deciding what the appropriate response
was.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
Obviously sob 57.
Hilarious.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
You didn't hear about this.
No, I didn't get it.
So in the, in the, in theTehillim, if anyone has juicy
info about the Tehillim prayergroup in Englewood, new Jersey,
please let me know yeah, let usknow, but that we were.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
She was telling us a story.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
She told the story for like 45 minutes and I was
enthralled every second.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
I mean, there's a gym in Yavna and there's like a
trainer who was sleeping withone of his clients.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Multiple.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
Wait.
So I think, like a husbandfound out or something and
hacked the security cameras andfound that he had been sleeping
with multiple people at thisvery small CrossFit style gym
and he then posted.
He posted footage in, likeevery group in Israel the
(33:32):
Tehillim groups, the Koshresgroups.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Okay, rabbi.
Now which is worse the personhaving these affairs or the
person who has maliciouslyposted this footage somewhere?
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I will answer that I don't know.
Yeah, the person who is postingthis Agreed.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
You're having the affair.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Because there's the harm that the affair is doing
Right, and then there's the harmyou're amplifying and
magnifying by posting it andmaking sure more people know
about it.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
Okay, so let's say the trainer, not me being the
rabbi today.
The trainer is not married bythe way the trainer.
The trainer is not committed.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yes, I'm going to bring us back.
Let's go.
Let's go to the, let's go tothe McCall, let's go to the, to
the, to the heart of the in theTorah, the top 10.
In the top 10 of the Torah?
Yeah, it's kind of up there.
It's kind of up there.
Do not shtup the neighbor'swife.
Yeah, when God was putting thetop 10 together, there was the
Sabbath Don't violate him, don'tviolate God.
(34:35):
It's not a him or her, it's aGod.
Don him or her so God.
Don't violate God, don't stealand don't kill and don't stoop
the neighbor's wife.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
This trainer is going against one of the top 10.
In his defense, it's toward thebottom of the list.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
Yes, it is so.
You can ultimately be thebottom five of the top 10.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
It's a B-side, but posting it.
So I know an Israeli traineryou do also who said, who came
over to me and he said, oh, it'sterrible, this trainer's career
is ruined Like wow, hot, takeHis trainer's career is ruined
(35:17):
From the trainer's side ofthings.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Meanwhile, there are multiple women who have been
getting together with him.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Let's just say their aerobic activity on their
smartwatches is through the roof.
Yes, they're meeting thosegoals.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
But is he committing a sin?
He's not married.
Yes, you are, he's married, theone posting it is doing a lot
worse.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Let me tell you why, first of all, he's posting it is
doing a lot worse.
Let me tell you why.
First of all, he's posting itabout this woman, and this woman
probably has children whoeventually will have to get
married and then they're goingto be oh, she's the daughter of
the woman who was stooping thetrainer, so that's already.
That's further down.
The person posting it is doingworse.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
It's an interesting ethical question, because we
have, like, we have the thingsyou're not supposed to do, right
, and that's easy.
That's easy to quantify in thecase of, like, sleeping with
somebody's wife.
That's really, really badPublicizing something, so that's
harder to quantify within likeor like to place within a legal
setting.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
But it is certainly Chilul Hashem right.
This is like desecration ofGod's name.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
I'm not sure I'm going with you on the Chilul
Hashem, on this.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
No, it makes this look terrible.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
It's embarrassing.
It's within the community,though it's not Chilul Hashem if
it's coming out of thecommunity.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
But the question that I'm asking is isn't the person
who's married more sinful thanthe person who's not married?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
No, If you're not married and you're stooping
someone who's married, you'redoing a bad thing.
And you, if you're, if you knowthat they're married, which I'm
guessing he did I mean,obviously it's one thing if
someone like conceals theirrelationship, wait, wait.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
I want to, so let's, let's.
Everybody here has donesomething wrong the trainer,
who's not married, the wifewho's stooping, this guy that's
not married, and then there'sthe guy who's posting the thing.
There's three people.
All have done something wrong.
Now the conversation we'rehaving is whose is the worst?
Speaker 1 (37:12):
I don't know who's the worst, but I think it's just
as bad to me.
The publicizing of it, no.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
I think the publicizing of it no, I think
the publicizing of it is muchworse than the other two, than
the other, than the one thetrainer, the wife and the
publicist, the publicist.
Yeah, the publicist, trainer,the wife, let's call them the
publicist, a memoir, that's thetitle of this episode the
trainer, the wife and thepublicist.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
The trainer the wife and the publicist that's the
name of this of this episodealso.
Just like don't stoop yourtrainer.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
It's Like wait a second.
You have not seen what thistrainer looks like.
No, and, by the way, let metell you something.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
I lived in LA for three years.
I went to the Equinox out thereand I saw the trainers oh yeah,
these stunning women who I'msure their husbands are like
older and and also seen sexworkers.
Let's seen sex workers, let'sbe real.
These trainers I I watched himstretch the woman out after the
(38:07):
train and I mean they're upagainst them.
At the end he comes off andhe's in, he's and he's aroused.
You can tell he's aroused and,um, you can tell, because it
goes through his sweatpants.
You can look and it's like it's, but it's her moment and I
don't know what it is.
It's not my, it's.
You can look and it's like it's, but it's her moment and I
don't know what it is.
It's not my, it's okay, I don'tknow, maybe that's.
We'd love to hear anybody'sinput.
If you had a thing with yourtrainer.
Speaker 3 (38:28):
Please write it.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
By the way, we can't wait for after this episode, leo
and I.
One of the nicest things thatwe have when we are in town is
we go to our trainer, stan.
Has he been on the podcast?
No, but he should be.
I don't know if he can.
By the way, let me tell yousomething.
He has 12 clients a day he'sthere.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
It is insane.
He's there from like 7 am to 7pm, like every single day.
Imagine if he worked in Yavne,he would do well.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Let's just I'll.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
One second.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
What are you looking for?
Speaker 4 (39:00):

Everyone please hold.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Is this trainer really stunning?
Is he really good looking?
It's pretty hot.
You have a video.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
I do it's.
You would kill me if I pulledthat video off.
I have a question.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
No, not on the podcast, but afterwards.
Let me see what this looks like.
It's pornographic.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
I have a few things like the actual.
Speaker 3 (39:30):
I have the actual video stop it's went viral, wow
okay, so I'm looking.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Okay.
So I have a quote that I wantto read to you and I want to ask
you how you feel about it.
Okay, Um, it's from a famousphilosopher.
Okay, If you know who it is,don't.
Don't say, um, there's only twokinds of people in the world
(40:03):
the kind of entertain and thekind that observe.
Can you do?
You think everyone falls withinthat binary.
No, no, no.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
I also to entertain.
You have to do a lot ofobserving though.
Oh, oh, oh oh.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
Do you guys want to take a guess of who's that
attributed to?
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Phyllis Diller.
I just, I don't know, I justthrew it out.
I just threw it.
I don't know what the hell.
Do you have any guesses?
I love the sweater and thechair and the combo.
This looks good.
I look good right here.
I just caught myself in thething.
Go ahead.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
You said a famous philosopher.

Who.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
Emmanuel Cunt.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
Hey, no nibble pet.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
What's wrong with you ?
It was Britney Spears.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
That's why it doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
Hello.
It does make total sensebecause it kind of is true.
And guess what?
We're all the ones whoentertain sitting here in our
own ways.
We're all the ones whoentertain.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
I think it's not true .
I think that there's somethingto that.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Okay, so now that you gave us the name of the
philosopher, I was listening toBritney Spears, I was like let
me write this down.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Britney Spears said this Okay, so keep in mind she's
an entertainer.
She gets on stage and sings asong, people entertained, and
then there's people who observeher falling apart and then
entertain other people on TMZabout how she's falling apart.
It's too much, no, but it'swhat it is.
That's what you can.
That's two categories that youcan't.
It's like that one.
You're either a thermometer ora thermostat.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Oh, I thought you were going schlemiel schlemazel,
that's another thing I heardthe thermometer, thermostat
thing.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
Yeah, and I, I, I, it was good um yeah, you're,
you're.
Speaker 2 (41:53):
You're either affected by the weather or the
situation you know and you justit happens to you, or you are
the one that creates it.
Speaker 3 (42:00):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yeah, I saw it on Instagram.
There was a Marine with thesemassive biceps and he was
driving and someone wasrecording him like full Marine,
like staff Sergeant, with likesix things here these massive
biceps and the Marine hat andthe glasses driving.
It was you were the thermostator a thermometer.
I'm like I don't care, Justkeep talking.
He was so hot go ahead.
Speaker 1 (42:22):

It's like our soft R&B fromlike the early 2000s, like at a.
It's not like that chantingmusic, it's like our soft R and
B from like the early twothousands.
I got a comfortable level.
(43:05):
She tells you to get changed,get on the table, whatever, and
you're assuming, like okay, atone point she's going to ask me
like what do I want to listen to?
That never happens.
Should you say something?
Absolutely, I didn't sayanything.
I sat there.
Speaker 3 (43:20):
Why?
Because I I didn't say anything.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
I sat there why?
Because I was like I guess thisis her jam and it wasn't like
loud, oh no, I was justsurprised by the choice.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
I'm surprised by you, though.
Of all people, I'm trying to benicer there's a difference
between being nicer andsuffering.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
I'm gonna chime in.
I'm gonna chime in here.
Speaker 4 (43:40):
Aren't you concerned, though, that if you piss her
off, then it's not?
Speaker 1 (43:44):
she's not going to do she's going to get in there
with that little blackheadremover.
Speaker 2 (43:48):
She's about to patch in your face.
She's about to do an hour ofpatching in your face.
I want her to be in a goodplace where she can be right.
It's not a massage, where it'sabout me the be right.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
Listen, it's not a massage, but it's about me.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
No no, the patch king is only a very small part of
the facial, to be clear.
It wasn't like uncomfortablemusic or loud music, right, and
it wasn't like vulgar anythinglike that, it was just.
But it was definitely a choiceof genre that I was kind of
surprised by and like wouldn'thave picked myself so I so hold
on hold, on track it wasn't thespa track, but this wasn't a spa
track, but it wasn't a spa.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
This was she was doing a facial, wasn't getting
massaged, which is where it'sabout you.
It's more about her doing herjob.
We had a situation very againI'm comparing this to we had a
show in Baltimore, so we hired adriver to take us there and
bring us back.
Very nice guy, new driver thatwe're working with.
He got a new car.
We're all good and right away Igot in the car and I want the
(44:44):
situation of the music.
I want him to be happy.
He's about to drive for threeand a half hours straight.
Right, we're sitting in theback.
You know Leo's going to checkout and go to Twitter and I'm
sitting there and so I wanted towork out with him what music
we're going to listen to.
So we did that and it was okayand you have to set that up.
(45:07):
But as a driver, like when wego to Connecticut, I do the
driving and so sometimes I tellLeo, put something on, and he'll
put something on.
That's not good for me.
Yeah, he never likes the firstthing I say.
So I'm not looking for a beator some girl screaming about her
problems.
I don't want a girl screamingabout her problems in my ear.
So then I have to pull up and Ifind myself.
(45:28):
That's what you have me for?
Yeah, exactly, so I want.
Speaker 1 (45:31):
If someone's being official, so you guys would have
all said something.
Speaker 2 (45:34):
No, I would never.
Never have said something 100%,100% not.
Speaker 3 (45:37):
But in a nice way, just I mean, would you mind no?
Speaker 1 (45:41):
there's a hundred nice ways you could have done it
For sure.
Speaker 4 (45:45):
I would have interfered, I would have.
Speaker 3 (45:47):
Listen, if I'm paying $350 to sit in a room for a
hundred for an hour and a half,I want to hear Hour and a half
facial.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
That's what it takes to do.
A facial An hour, yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
It was a long facial.
I've never had a facial.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
Last thing I ever wanted was someone pocking on my
face.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I just had one and I'm getting another one when
we're in LA.
You're kidding, yeah?
Speaker 2 (46:09):
Do it when someone's sitting there yapping.
That's not what it is.
Speaker 3 (46:13):
First of all, that's only like a small part of it,
where they're like cleaning outyour pores, cleaning out your
pores.
The other part is they'remassaging.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
They're putting cream on.
If you could learn how to do it.
Speaker 3 (46:24):
It's like a massage.
They're massaging you.
Speaker 1 (46:27):
It's good for lymphatic drainage.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
This is not like I'm going to go in.
This is not like you're talkingto the doctor.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
I don't need to drain my face.
Speaker 4 (46:35):
Do you do facials?
No, I've never.
My parents got me a giftcertificate.
I, my parents, got me a giftcertificate.
I never used it.

How did this get to you if notthrough you?
I got it.
I didn't read the letter.

How did this get to you if notthrough you?
I got it and I threw it in thebag.
Someone gave me a letter.
I threw it in the bag.
I didn't know it was to readbefore I go on the show.
So the magician that broughther came backstage and he's
security breach.
He goes hey, there's a womaner,that's, that's.
That's what I'm there for.
That could be the whole reasonI'm in Mexico for is to just say
(09:45):
hi to her.
But he was doing magic thewhole way, so he was there.
I made a fireball come away andthe coin disappeared.
Yeah, I, I I he's a veryspecial guy and took care of her
, but he has no idea that I Ihate magic.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
I famously hate, magic but, I, love him.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
I love him.
I hate magic.
Can I tell you something?
Yeah, on the last episode wediscussed the possibility of you
making an album, oh, and I gotseveral messages of people so
excited by the idea of a Modialbum Wow, and offering to help
(10:23):
and like have Modi do it.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
And people also went ape shit for that clip we just
posted of you singing withDershowitz and your old cancer.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Is there a clip of me and him singing no, yeah, but
me and him actually singing.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
He has no idea what's going on in his actual
Instagram.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So okay, so okay, so amazing what's going on in his
actual Instagram.
So okay, so amazing that wehave Rabbi Bellino here, who,
besides being my rabbi, is alsoa vocal coach and a music coach
and brutally honest with me.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
To the point.
Let me explain to you, Let metell you how brutally honest.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
He is with me when we did the three shows in the
Beacon on the third one, theThursday night, when I said to
the audience this is my thirdshow and thank God I have
Shabbos tomorrow.
And then I went into a littlevishamru, this little prayer
which was unnecessary.
Completely completelyunnecessary.
Plus, I've already been onstage for an hour and 10 minutes
(11:20):
.
My voice is not at a placewhere I should be singing now.
And I said to him how was thevishamru?
And he says to me the goodthing was, you didn't go off key
.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
That was the I said that, yes, I love you, modi
Rosenfeld, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
No, brutally honest, brutally honest.
Oh my God, wait, wait, wait.
I'm so sorry.
No, brutally honest, brutallyhonest.
Oh my god, wait, wait, wait.
One one I was davening.
I was the chazen and I was so.
I was so in the zone two, inthe zone two, in the zone, and
we got to the prayer of like, oh, it's like the highlight of the
(12:12):
.
So how does that begin?
What's that?
It's, anyway, I was so thefirst.
It's like four lines that yousing and then the congregation
repeats after you.
I nailed the first three likemy voice.
(12:36):
I was blown away by myself.
And then the last one.
I made such a mistake, I justlike cause, I was too in it.
I was closing my eyes thinkingI was.
It was just, I made a mistakein the wording and then god
turns me.
Well, at least you're keepinggod on his toes on your gift,
right?
Not you cursing on my podcast,not my rabbi cursing on my
(13:03):
podcast sorry take you need toget over it.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I, I cannot mark every episode explicit, because
there's always an s or an f bomb.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Dina's father, rabbi gross, told me no nivel pet, do
not, not curse, not on stage.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Nivelpet is an amazing Yiddish phrase.
It's a great drag name.
Welcome to the stage.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Nivelpet no that's a good time.
Pet is mouth and Nivel is a.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
That's a good Dirty Dirty yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
What are our drag names Go?
Oh, are you crazy?
We have a million.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
I have a million.
I have a million Mazel Top.
That's good, that's very goodLuxon Kegels.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Lisa Lisa Honda, that's wait.
My favorite one is Nina Levine,9-11.
That never landed.
I never land, but I love it.
I don't care mine is serotonin.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
alright, what was your?
Yours is?
I never land, but I love it.
I don't care, mine is serotonin.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
All right, what was yours?
Yours is Periel.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Period.
She's already in drag.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Mine is Nivelpeh yes, by the way, it's good.
Yes, that's your drag name.
Nivelpeh, yeah, nivelpeh.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Oh, my God, that was so funny, and that's also the
title of this episode Nivel PatSure.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Dina's father said to me on stage no, don't curse,
it's not necessary.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
There is a very strong push by some of the great
minds of comedy that say thatcursing brings down the level of
comedy, that it's like an easyway out.
So you're in very good company.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I kind of agree with that, but sometimes a
well-placed curse word is justfunny.
I think you're right.
I think you're saying it needsto be like peppered with curse
words and like gratuitously,just like explicit but sometimes
a well-placed like there's afluctuation, there's a correct,
because they're intensifiers,right?
Speaker 4 (15:02):
So you have to intensify at certain points and
then you can bring it down andyou can use your words and you
can use your language andexpress yourself without it.
So for example, it gets thepunch in.
It's very important.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yes.
So, for example, in my show Ido this thing like in the middle
of the show Now I've alreadydone a half hour.
They've seen it is a crazyenergy, great energy in the room
and I haven't cursed.
And then I do this thing whereI ask the people who are married
for a long amount of timewhat's their secret?
And one guy goes I love her andI go, you're full of s.
And they die because they'relike, they're not expecting,
(15:35):
especially during crowd work.
All of a sudden he's droppingan s bomb, you know, and then
that's it.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
But like but it's really even a bad word.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Yes, but it's yeah no , it's not a good word, it's not
a great word to be, it's youknow you don't curse on stage,
do you in shul?
Speaker 1 (15:48):
yeah, no, no on the bema on the bema well, moody's
on the bema bema, I just met heranyway he'll be here all week.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
He'll be here all week.
No, his, his, his sermons areamazing.
He's so much smarter than hegives you credit for.
He's so smart and he pulls inthings and sometimes he does,
you know, like that bit I usedto do.
There's, there's bits youcomics do like that I love and I
know it's not good for the set,but he does things like I could
(16:18):
tell us for him where he bringsup all these past, like
Mephorshim, all these pastcommentators that like no one's
ever heard of, no one's everheard, and it's and the audience
and the crowd that we have inthe show.
It doesn't need but he's doingit for himself.
He's like he's giving this he'slike he's giving this it's.
(16:41):
He's so smart, he's very, verysmart, and he is very smart and
we're very interactive.
We've been heckling you lately.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Yeah, by the way, you a lot you built me up to handle
hecklers so well.
I mean that's, yeah, that bythe that's, that's a huge skill
yeah, also something that doesnot happen in church heckling no
problem are you crazy?
Not take.
Not taking someone like head on, but like using a crowd.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
There's no interaction in church.
There's no interaction.
They sit there, they sit inpachad.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Here's the Yiddish word of the podcast Zitrd in
pachad Zitrd.
When you sit there, you'reshaking in pachad, in fear, in
fear In the church, and Ihonestly think everybody sits
there like they're one of thefounding members everybody's got
their hand on four chairs.
They bring a little somethingto drink in church.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
They're sitting there , scared to death, unless you're
like in a Baptist church, likea Southern Baptist.
But the ones you brought me tono, no, the.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Catholics.
They're sitting dying of fear.
The guy's speaking in Latin,they have no idea what he's
saying, but the vibe isn't like,okay, this guy that's on this
cross is is.
Is he died for our sins?
So like, oh, thank God, he diedfor our sins, so we're covered.
It's more like this could beyou.
It's more the vibe, this couldbe you up there.
So just pull it.
(17:53):
So everybody's they're scaredto death, but it's only 40
minutes, then they're out ofthere, it's not 40 minutes, but
that's because you have a coolsynagogue.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
If you're going to an ultra-Orthodox place, the vibe
is not quite.
They're also talking.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
I don't think it's a question of the extent of the
Orthodoxy.
Okay, I think it's part of theculture and it's part of how
serious they take themselves,and that doesn't necessarily
correlate with religiousenthusiasm.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Not sure that was the answer that I would have given
for you.
He has a cool synagogue becauseit's his synagogue.
He's not answering to a board,he's not answering to a
president, he's not answering tosome member that made a big
donation and thinks now he's incharge.
It's his synagogue.
He runs the synagogue in theshow, kind of like a Chabad
(18:50):
rabbi type of a thing, wherehe's in charge of the yeah, it's
much closer to a Chabad house.
It's much closer to a Chabadhouse and so that's why it's
such a cool synagogue, becauseit's under all the rules of
Orthodox.
But go ahead, do your thing.
Do your thing.
You want to sit?
There's a massive synagogue.
So if you and your friends wantto sit in the back and talk,
thank God you're here.
(19:10):
If you want to come only forthe meal after the lunch, go
right to the meal and that's it,but you went there before.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Gav was even the rabbi.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Yes, Of course, yeah, that was always your synagogue.
For like, yeah, for like 20years.
For more than 20 years, youcrazy, more than 30 years.
I moved to the Lower East Sidein 96.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Okay, so who was the rabbi before?
Why don't we tell your originstory, since you're our guest?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Oh God really.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
I'll tell the story.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I'll tell I was in LA when you came on.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
So we our synagogue.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
No, I don't think so.
Yeah, yeah yeah, you had justmoved back.
I had just moved back.
Can you guys get the?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
story together.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
So our synagogue.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Our synagogue is the Sixth Street Synagogue.
It's an amazing shul.
It's on Sixth Street and it wasin the heart.
It used to be a church.
We've spoken about this.
It used to be a church andeverybody died.
And then you came on.
You came on For a while.
We didn't have a rabbi and JackLeibwall who was running the
shul.
We were kind of happy with nothaving a rabbi.
(20:19):
We ran the services.
Jack went up every saturday andmade a three minute dvar torah
uh sermon for three minutes,literally three minutes.
In this week's parsha, abrahamtold um yakov this and this and
this is so.
You can look at it done, sitdown and we continue the service
.
We were out by 1045.
(20:40):
Oh my God, Me and Jack werelike this is not going to last
forever.
Let's enjoy this for now.
And then he began to auditiondifferent rabbis, and then we
had Rabbi Berkowitz.
And then we ended up with yourMashiach energy.
You had a synagogue that waslosing a building.
We had a synagogue that had nomembers and you brought it all
(21:00):
together and it's an amazingplace.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
Those were rough times though, those like first
few months, just culturally, ofbringing two shuls together.
I remember like one of thethings I did, I changed the size
of the plates at Kiddush.
I made them smaller so that itwas like less of a lunch vibe
and more of like cocktail hour,and that was like.
That was like I invaded Kuwaitand changed the currency.
(21:25):
I mean like it was like peoplejust didn't know what.
Like it was like how am Isupposed to have a role on this?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Oh my gosh, maybe you're not no, you, you, yeah,
so you really, you really did abig, a big everybody there.
Everybody feels welcome, gay,straight, trans, everything is
there.
We have a lot of comedians.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Yes, and you really, I mean, when you like, sent out
an email to your friends to come.
I mean, I'm so appreciative.
But then some people found usnaturally.
Yeah, leia and Olga.
I mean, on Yom Kippur, jaredFreed had like Psyche it was so
nice it was so lovely.
You gotta come more often, notjust on October 7th, guy would
(22:10):
love it.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
By the way, guy would love our synagogue.
Your husband would love oursynagogue.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
I did come.
I go to synagogue once a year,october 7th, christmas.
Do you prefer spending?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
time in Connecticut.
I did come On October 7th.
I go to synagogue once a year.
Okay, october 7th Christmas,just kidding On Christmas,
christmas Eve.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Do you prefer spending time in Connecticut,
the city, or Fire Island?
Where are you the happiest andmost comfortable?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Oh, that's an easy one.
It's a very, very easy one.
I'm happiest wherever Leo'shappy, which is Connecticut and
Fire Island but more Connecticut.
As long as my husband Leo'shappy, and which is Connecticut
and fire Island but moreConnecticut, I, I, I, as long as
my husband is happy, I am happy.
I can tell you that with ahundred percent.
You can, you, you admit thatyou?
(22:50):
admit what I don't need to be ina certain place my happiest
place, by the way, is a greenroom before a show sucking on a
Celsius.
I'm about to do an hour and 20minutes of comedy.
That's my happiest place in theworld but physically, to be
wherever leo's happy and calm,and that makes me.
That makes me happy.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Lately our apartment building is.
Everyone seems to be doingrenovations, oh god we so.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
So I'm trying to figure this out.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
Is there not a board that controls?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
it is, but there is.
It's a co-op.
The renovations doesn't botherme at all, the renovations.
Actually, when I hearrenovations happening in the
apartment I'm like wow, I hearwhat you're saying, modi, but
it's literally the last.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I would say year and a half it's been constant,
non-stop One ends and one begins.
It's insane.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It's nothing to do with our building, it's
something with us.
Currently is vibe wise.
We are in.
I don't know why we are notgetting a break from noise.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Oh yeah, I told Modi.
A witch put a curse on us.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Some, somebody in iron horror, which I think I'm
going to start organizing stuffand re and fighting this.
There's a noise iron horrorevil eye on us and it's not.
I think if we, if we move to abuilding on fifth Avenue
tomorrow, there'd beconstruction on top of us.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Yeah, I believe you.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
That's how bad it is.
We walked, oh my God.
So we land from Las Vegas.
We left at like 12 in theafternoon, we land here at nine
or whatever the hell.
It was awful, awful.
And we're getting off the planeand you're like off the plane,
you're grossing.
You're off the plane, yourtuchus is all.
And you're grossing, you'reitchy, sweating, sweaty.
And then, like, right when weget to the, to the, get off the
(24:24):
gate and go out, the alarm goesoff like there's such a strong
eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
And I'm like wow, what the?
I screamed, I lost it.
That noise happens when someoneopened the door, someone didn't
do their job, right that thatis happening.
A plane landed, people arecoming off.
They should be.
It was so loud and I was likewe, we, we are in a noise, iron
(24:48):
horror in an evil eye noise andwe just can't see.
But the real problem is thedoor.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Mexico city, in Mexico city, we had to move
hotel rooms.
There was a like.
The construction was.
There was a construction siteright outside our room.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
They moved us they moved us.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
There's so many little things that happened
where I'm like Modi.
A witch put a curse on us.
I don't know who.
We pissed off.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
The construction for some reason doesn't bother me
because we we've done crazyconstruction in our.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I did two, two reconstructions in my apartment,
the fact that there's beenconstant construction.
So in my apartment.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
That doesn't negate the fact that there's been
constant construction, so when Ihear construction I'm like, oh
my God, I'm so happy that theirworkers showed up, because when
you're doing construction in aManhattan building, you pray A
that they get there on the righttime, bring the right things.
They're available when theother guy, when the plumber's
available and the electrician'scoming so they can do the same
thing.
Someone's having a good daythat their correction is
(25:38):
happening.
It's the dogs that I'm in shockabout.
The dogs.
That people.
How dare you, how dare you, howdare you control somebody
else's quality of life bybringing a dog?
If you're living in a buildingwith a five inch wall between
you and your neighbors, youcannot have a barking dog.
You do not have the right tolower somebody else's quality of
(26:01):
life.
That's what blows my mind.
That's what blows my mind.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Have you had tense moments with your dog, oh are
you crazy?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah, I have this fantasy oh so many fantasies.
I have a fantasy that I buy oneof those air horns and I go and
I knock on their door and asthey open it, I just put it in
their face and I just hold itfor like 30 seconds my fantasy
is there's something you thatyou you can like, a whistle that
you humans can't hear, but thedogs can, and the dogs and like,
(26:30):
and they can just watch the dogyeah why don't?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
you guys get like uh, some like poison or something
like treats what.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I'm not not doing that.
We're killing beautifulcreatures.
What's wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
No, but the people.
They're not beautiful.
If you saw these dogs, they are.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
These are disgusting, miserable looking dogs that
they got for free, by the way, Ihave.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Not that they got for free.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I love animals.
I love dogs.
No more in Manhattan.
There should be a great.
Whoever has dogs now they'regrandfathered in.
But if I was mayor, no moredogs in Manhattan, they're.
They're not fun for anyone.
The dogs are not having fun.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
I'm not convinced the owners are having fun.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
The dogs are all looking miserable.
There's crap all over thesidewalk everywhere, all the
time it's not feasible, like ifyou don't have a yard or outdoor
space, you shouldn't be allowedto have a dog.
How dare you.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
So there's a guy on our floor and he not on our
floor, two floors down, but youhear a crystal clear.
It goes right into ourapartment Through the ducts and
so he went to knock on theneighbor's door and the neighbor
is walking around his own housewith earplugs.
He said how do you deal withthis?
He goes and then like, and hegoes the entire floor.
Underneath Our building is thisold building that was made out
(27:39):
of like, like those cementthings, so it's hollow in the
between and so it travels, thesound travels in the building.
Crazy.
But I really don't even thinkthat.
I think if we moved to someluxury building, same thing it
would be, the same thing wouldhappen.
I can't explain.
The other day I'm sitting,we're sitting, in a suburban,
(28:00):
beautiful car where justeverything's chill.
Where were we?
We were in, I think we were.
No, I'll tell you.
I'll tell you where we were.
We were coming, we were inVegas, and so we were in the
suburban and we were leaving andall the the sphere, traffic and
all was going on there and Ijust wanted to get some air.
I don't want the air, I wantedair.
(28:24):
I opened my window down andright, then a police motorcycle,
just go it's almost likecomical.
I was like it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
It's like we'll be walking down the street in New
York and it'll be normal, likenot loud.
And then the second we get to acorner, we turn the corner.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
There's like a jackhammer and he's waiting for
us to get there.
And then he hits the button andwe're like but like walking
down the street and theambulances, put his thing on
right where we.
He could have done it before.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Okay, so what is this about I?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
don't know.
I don't know.
We did something, we didsomething, no, or maybe we need
to do something.
Do something, maybe it's weneed to do something, but I
don't know what it is.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
If anyone has some voodoo witchy stuff they could
recommend, I'm all ears.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I'm all ears, any voodoo not voodoo, but any, you
know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, anything, any brachasthat you know could be made or
some kind of I don't know, somesort of organization.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
You can make a donation to.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
I wish there was.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I would give them so much money right now Speaking of
Fire Island versus Connecticutversus the city, something that
is always kind of surprising tome.
When we interact with people atthe shows or at the meet and
greets and stuff, people don'tknow where we live.
No, thank God, which is kind ofcool, because they're like oh,
you're in LA, right.
We're like, no, you live inIsrael.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
You're in Israel.
I thought you were in Israel.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
No, we don't live in Israel.
Oh, you live in Brooklyn.
No, we don't live in Brooklyn.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Like no one knows exactly where we live.
It depends where they are onour Instagram, where the last
post they saw so you know, hey,flying from LA to wherever.
So they think, oh, he lives inLA.
Flying from Mexico, oh, youlive in mexico?
Speaker 3 (30:00):
yeah, we live in manhattan.
That's our official address.
What's your favorite place?
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I mean, connecticut is just because it's it's new,
it's we've, it's really specialand I sometimes, when we're
traveling and we're in anairplane, I just think that that
house is standing there with acar in it that's mine and it's
just sitting there and all Iwant to do is be there, and
we'll be there soon, though wehave some downtime I guess in
(30:24):
the summer coming up.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, but that's a good goal.
It's a good goal to be.
What's your favorite place tobe?
Where's your favorite place Forme?
Speaker 4 (30:31):
Yeah, because you have Manhattan, yeah you have
multiple paths and you have two,oh, pennsylvania, I don't know.
I really I really like back andforth and I know that's like
strange, like people like to besettled.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I like to have so many options that's so wonderful
.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
I love TNEC.
I love having space.
I love being part of a Jewishcommunity that I have no
responsibility for.
I'm completely anonymous.
No one's calling me for a Shivaminion no one.
I go to the supermarket.
I know no one.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
It's the best.
Speaker 4 (31:07):
It's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
That person we met at Brian Kelly's book launch party
that had the story about theTehillim group, was that in
Teaneck?
Yes, oh, boy, did you hearabout this no, not Tina can I?
Speaker 2 (31:21):
say it Anglewood.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Cliff Anglewood we met this person, who's a
prominent person, who is ontelevision, who was very
charismatic.
I'm not going to say her name,mostly because I don't think I'm
going to get it right, but shecomes up to Modi and like she
starts putting it together.
Okay, this is a Jewish comedian.
She's like, I'm not Jewish, butI live in Englewood and I'm
(31:43):
part of the Tehillim group.
On like WhatsApp.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Tehillim group is.
This is when someone's sick orthere's a situation in the
neighborhood that needs prayer.
So Tehillim is Psalms, thePsalms that David wrote the book
of Psalms, and so everybody ison this chat and they discuss
which Psalm they're all going toread to bring energy of prayer
to a situation like somebodybeing sick or somebody just
about to get married orsomething whatever.
(32:07):
That's the Tehillim group, thePsalm group.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Yeah so she's on this WhatsApp chat.
I'm not Jewish, but I'm in thisTehillim group and I love it
and she goes.
Oh my gosh, the other daysomeone accidentally put an
adult video of themselves in theTehillim group.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Yes, oh, so their prayers were answered.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Their prayers were answered.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Everyone was deciding what the appropriate response
was.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
Obviously sob 57.
Hilarious.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
You didn't hear about this.
No, I didn't get it.
So in the, in the, in theTehillim, if anyone has juicy
info about the Tehillim prayergroup in Englewood, new Jersey,
please let me know yeah, let usknow, but that we were.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
She was telling us a story.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
She told the story for like 45 minutes and I was
enthralled every second.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
I mean, there's a gym in Yavna and there's like a
trainer who was sleeping withone of his clients.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Multiple.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
Wait.
So I think, like a husbandfound out or something and
hacked the security cameras andfound that he had been sleeping
with multiple people at thisvery small CrossFit style gym
and he then posted.
He posted footage in, likeevery group in Israel the
(33:32):
Tehillim groups, the Koshresgroups.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Okay, rabbi.
Now which is worse the personhaving these affairs or the
person who has maliciouslyposted this footage somewhere?
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I will answer that I don't know.
Yeah, the person who is postingthis Agreed.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
You're having the affair.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Because there's the harm that the affair is doing
Right, and then there's the harmyou're amplifying and
magnifying by posting it andmaking sure more people know
about it.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
Okay, so let's say the trainer, not me being the
rabbi today.
The trainer is not married bythe way the trainer.
The trainer is not committed.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yes, I'm going to bring us back.
Let's go.
Let's go to the, let's go tothe McCall, let's go to the, to
the, to the heart of the in theTorah, the top 10.
In the top 10 of the Torah?
Yeah, it's kind of up there.
It's kind of up there.
Do not shtup the neighbor'swife.
Yeah, when God was putting thetop 10 together, there was the
Sabbath Don't violate him, don'tviolate God.
(34:35):
It's not a him or her, it's aGod.
Don him or her so God.
Don't violate God, don't stealand don't kill and don't stoop
the neighbor's wife.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
This trainer is going against one of the top 10.
In his defense, it's toward thebottom of the list.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
Yes, it is so.
You can ultimately be thebottom five of the top 10.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
It's a B-side, but posting it.
So I know an Israeli traineryou do also who said, who came
over to me and he said, oh, it'sterrible, this trainer's career
is ruined Like wow, hot, takeHis trainer's career is ruined
(35:17):
From the trainer's side ofthings.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Meanwhile, there are multiple women who have been
getting together with him.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Let's just say their aerobic activity on their
smartwatches is through the roof.
Yes, they're meeting thosegoals.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
But is he committing a sin?
He's not married.
Yes, you are, he's married, theone posting it is doing a lot
worse.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Let me tell you why, first of all, he's posting it is
doing a lot worse.
Let me tell you why.
First of all, he's posting itabout this woman, and this woman
probably has children whoeventually will have to get
married and then they're goingto be oh, she's the daughter of
the woman who was stooping thetrainer, so that's already.
That's further down.
The person posting it is doingworse.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
It's an interesting ethical question, because we
have, like, we have the thingsyou're not supposed to do, right
, and that's easy.
That's easy to quantify in thecase of, like, sleeping with
somebody's wife.
That's really, really badPublicizing something, so that's
harder to quantify within likeor like to place within a legal
setting.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
But it is certainly Chilul Hashem right.
This is like desecration ofGod's name.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
I'm not sure I'm going with you on the Chilul
Hashem, on this.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
No, it makes this look terrible.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
It's embarrassing.
It's within the community,though it's not Chilul Hashem if
it's coming out of thecommunity.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
But the question that I'm asking is isn't the person
who's married more sinful thanthe person who's not married?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
No, If you're not married and you're stooping
someone who's married, you'redoing a bad thing.
And you, if you're, if you knowthat they're married, which I'm
guessing he did I mean,obviously it's one thing if
someone like conceals theirrelationship, wait, wait.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
I want to, so let's, let's.

There's three people.
All have done something wrong.
Now the conversation we'rehaving is whose is the worst?
Speaker 1 (37:12):
I don't know who's the worst, but I think it's just
as bad to me.
The publicizing of it, no.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
I think the publicizing of it no, I think
the publicizing of it is muchworse than the other two, than
the other, than the one thetrainer, the wife and the
publicist, the publicist.
Yeah, the publicist, trainer,the wife, let's call them the
publicist, a memoir, that's thetitle of this episode the
trainer, the wife and thepublicist.

I lived in LA for three years.
I went to the Equinox out thereand I saw the trainers oh yeah,

older and and also seen sexworkers.
Let's seen sex workers, let'sbe real.
These trainers I I watched himstretch the woman out after the

At the end he comes off andhe's in, he's and he's aroused.
You can tell he's aroused and,um, you can tell, because it
goes through his sweatpants.
You can look and it's like it's, but it's her moment and I
don't know what it is.
It's not my, it's.
You can look and it's like it's, but it's her moment and I
don't know what it is.

We'd love to hear anybody'sinput.
If you had a thing with yourtrainer.
Speaker 3 (38:28):

One of the nicest things thatwe have when we are in town is

No, but he should be.
I don't know if he can.
By the way, let me tell yousomething.
He has 12 clients a day he'sthere.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
It is insane.
He's there from like 7 am to 7pm, like every single day.
Imagine if he worked in Yavne,he would do well.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
Is this trainer really stunning?

You would kill me if I pulledthat video off.
I have a question.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
No, not on the podcast, but afterwards.
Let me see what this looks like.
It's pornographic.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
I have a few things like the actual.
Speaker 3 (39:30):

okay, so I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
Okay, leo, what do you have for us there?
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Okay.
So I have a quote that I wantto read to you and I want to ask
you how you feel about it.
Okay, Um, it's from a famousphilosopher.
Okay, If you know who it is,don't.
Don't say, um, there's only twokinds of people in the world
(40:03):
the kind of entertain and thekind that observe.
Can you do?
You think everyone falls withinthat binary.
No, no, no.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
I also to entertain.
You have to do a lot ofobserving though.
Oh, oh, oh oh.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
Do you guys want to take a guess of who's that
attributed to?
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Phyllis Diller.
I just, I don't know, I justthrew it out.
I just threw it.
I don't know what the hell.
Do you have any guesses?
I love the sweater and thechair and the combo.
This looks good.
I look good right here.
I just caught myself in thething.
Go ahead.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
You said a famous philosopher.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Who.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
Emmanuel Cunt.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
Hey, no nibble pet.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
What's wrong with you ?
It was Britney Spears.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
That's why it doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
Hello.
It does make total sensebecause it kind of is true.
And guess what?
We're all the ones whoentertain sitting here in our
own ways.
We're all the ones whoentertain.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
I think it's not true .
I think that there's somethingto that.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Okay, so now that you gave us the name of the
philosopher, I was listening toBritney Spears, I was like let
me write this down.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Britney Spears said this Okay, so keep in mind she's
an entertainer.
She gets on stage and sings asong, people entertained, and
then there's people who observeher falling apart and then
entertain other people on TMZabout how she's falling apart.
It's too much, no, but it'swhat it is.
That's what you can.
That's two categories that youcan't.
It's like that one.
You're either a thermometer ora thermostat.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Oh, I thought you were going schlemiel schlemazel,
that's another thing I heardthe thermometer, thermostat
thing.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
Yeah, and I, I, I, it was good um yeah, you're,
you're.
Speaker 2 (41:53):
You're either affected by the weather or the
situation you know and you justit happens to you, or you are
the one that creates it.
Speaker 3 (42:00):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yeah, I saw it on Instagram.
There was a Marine with thesemassive biceps and he was
driving and someone wasrecording him like full Marine,
like staff Sergeant, with likesix things here these massive
biceps and the Marine hat andthe glasses driving.
It was you were the thermostator a thermometer.
I'm like I don't care, Justkeep talking.
He was so hot go ahead.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
I guess this is like a what would you do situation.
Perry all okay so here's thescene you have made time to go
get a facial at a fancy schmancyplace and it's an expensive
facial.
It's like a long and you go.
You're dying to make a joke.
(42:44):
No, no, no Feel free and you getin the treatment room.
It's a giant, beautiful, hugetreatment room and there's music
playing Soft.
But there's music playing andit's like not like that spa
music, it's not like thatchanting music.
It's like our soft R&B fromlike the early 2000s, like at a.
It's not like that chantingmusic, it's like our soft R and
B from like the early twothousands.
I got a comfortable level.
(43:05):
She tells you to get changed,get on the table, whatever, and
you're assuming, like okay, atone point she's going to ask me
like what do I want to listen to?
That never happens.
Should you say something?
Absolutely, I didn't sayanything.
I sat there.
Speaker 3 (43:20):
Why?
Because I I didn't say anything.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
I sat there why?
Because I was like I guess thisis her jam and it wasn't like
loud, oh no, I was justsurprised by the choice.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
I'm surprised by you, though.
Of all people, I'm trying to benicer there's a difference
between being nicer andsuffering.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
I'm gonna chime in.
I'm gonna chime in here.
Speaker 4 (43:40):
Aren't you concerned, though, that if you piss her
off, then it's not?
Speaker 1 (43:44):
she's not going to do she's going to get in there
with that little blackheadremover.
Speaker 2 (43:48):
She's about to patch in your face.
She's about to do an hour ofpatching in your face.
I want her to be in a goodplace where she can be right.
It's not a massage, where it'sabout me the be right.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
Listen, it's not a massage, but it's about me.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
No no, the patch king is only a very small part of
the facial, to be clear.
It wasn't like uncomfortablemusic or loud music, right, and
it wasn't like vulgar anythinglike that, it was just.
But it was definitely a choiceof genre that I was kind of
surprised by and like wouldn'thave picked myself so I so hold
on hold, on track it wasn't thespa track, but this wasn't a spa
track, but it wasn't a spa.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
This was she was doing a facial, wasn't getting
massaged, which is where it'sabout you.
It's more about her doing herjob.
We had a situation very againI'm comparing this to we had a
show in Baltimore, so we hired adriver to take us there and
bring us back.
Very nice guy, new driver thatwe're working with.
He got a new car.
We're all good and right away Igot in the car and I want the
(44:44):
situation of the music.
I want him to be happy.
He's about to drive for threeand a half hours straight.
Right, we're sitting in theback.
You know Leo's going to checkout and go to Twitter and I'm
sitting there and so I wanted towork out with him what music
we're going to listen to.
So we did that and it was okayand you have to set that up.
(45:07):
But as a driver, like when wego to Connecticut, I do the
driving and so sometimes I tellLeo, put something on, and he'll
put something on.
That's not good for me.
Yeah, he never likes the firstthing I say.
So I'm not looking for a beator some girl screaming about her
problems.
I don't want a girl screamingabout her problems in my ear.
So then I have to pull up and Ifind myself.
(45:28):
That's what you have me for?
Yeah, exactly, so I want.
Speaker 1 (45:31):
If someone's being official, so you guys would have
all said something.
Speaker 2 (45:34):
No, I would never.
Never have said something 100%,100% not.
Speaker 3 (45:37):
But in a nice way, just I mean, would you mind no?
Speaker 1 (45:41):
there's a hundred nice ways you could have done it
For sure.
Speaker 4 (45:45):
I would have interfered, I would have.
Speaker 3 (45:47):
Listen, if I'm paying $350 to sit in a room for a
hundred for an hour and a half,I want to hear Hour and a half
facial.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
That's what it takes to do.
A facial An hour, yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
It was a long facial.
I've never had a facial.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
Last thing I ever wanted was someone pocking on my
face.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I just had one and I'm getting another one when
we're in LA.
You're kidding, yeah?
Speaker 2 (46:09):
Do it when someone's sitting there yapping.
That's not what it is.
Speaker 3 (46:13):
First of all, that's only like a small part of it,
where they're like cleaning outyour pores, cleaning out your
pores.
The other part is they'remassaging.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
They're putting cream on.
If you could learn how to do it.
Speaker 3 (46:24):
It's like a massage.
They're massaging you.
Speaker 1 (46:27):
It's good for lymphatic drainage.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
This is not like I'm going to go in.
This is not like you're talkingto the doctor.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
I don't need to drain my face.
