Speaker 1 (00:00):
Uh, this is pretty interesting. I had no idea that
at some point Leonardo DiCaprio considered changing his name, that
he was going to change his name. Now, was this
that during growing pains to change his name.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Or sounds like it was back yeah, now when he was.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Starting Gilbert Grape.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Oh yeah, he was a little guy starting his acting career.
Oh interesting, yeah, yeah, okay, interesting?
Speaker 1 (00:25):
What was he when was he going to do this?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Well, well, so we found this fun fact out.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I don't want to anger Thor, but Leonardo DiCaprio went
on his first ever podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
He has never been on a podcast before.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
A podcast let me get let me guess the podcast.
I have no idea, but I'm gonna give you a
couple of guesses. It's either that moron, Dak Shepherd's podcast
moron because he pretends to be sober. He says he
got his wife, said he had twenty years sober. Didn't
he just relapse last year? Because that's not being sober.
That's number one. He's either on New Heights. That's a
(01:00):
good point with the two idiots. But what I can't
stand them. You know that you hate everyone, and I
don't think he's doing Rogan No, he wouldn't do Rogan.
It's too controversial, and he's more he's a left guy.
He's a lefty. I know I'm missing a big one.
Call her daddy, Yeah, call her daddy, good call.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
That's a good call. So those are the three. Those
are the three.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Well, he went on his first ever podcast when he
went on the New Heights podcast.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
On the podcast cool, honestly, it would be it would
be more entertaining. Okay, you would think Travis would stop
doing the podcast mid season because it ain't helping him.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Oh boy, oh god. So yeah, him.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
And I don't know you were a big New Heights fan.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
I think that they're doing wonderful work. God, he could
have been on.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
He could have went on call me Kylie, whatever the
hell her podcast is, Kylie Kelsey.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, went on New Heights because they have that new
movie shot here out in like the Desert.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Yeah, so they were promoting that.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
But he ended up telling a story about early in
his career, his agent told him that his name, Leonardo DiCaprio,
sounded quote too ethnic and that he wouldn't get jobs
because of his Italian name.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
I can't see him being entertaining at all. On a podcast.
He's very serious. He doesn't give you anything. He's no personality,
so I'm surprised he said anything.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
You know. The Kelsey Boys, woiul bring it out of you.
They're such a fun, fun group of cathellas. They'll they'll
drag it out of you. They really do. They really are.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Well he was going to be sweet Leo.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
No, he wasn't going to be sweet Leo.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
That's crazy. It is a mouthful when you think about it. Now,
it's easy to say Leonardo DiCaprio because he's such a
big star, But when you first heard about him, maybe
you were like, what Leonardo Dick? What I think.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
I think what made it work for him is that
he's such a great actor and he was in such
big movies.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Jack that was one of them.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
But like if he because any normal person ran in
here and said it.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Any normal person with that name isn't going to work. Yeah,
that's wild. Like he had to be well.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
So his agent even went so far as to have
headshots made up with his new stage name Lenny Williams.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Come on, what Lenny and Williams.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Terrible name.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Honest, I don't think he would have been super a
massive stars.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Lenny is not like that doesn't scream sorry you, Lenny's
out there listening attractive. Yeah, I guess, but I mean think, Okay,
come up with another one, give me an give me
another yeah, so yeah, I mean Lenny and Squiggy. Yeah,
Shirley get out of here. Okay. So I don't know,
(04:09):
like that's just a wild pick. And Williams couldn't have
been Leo Williams. That wouldn't have been that crazy.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
That would have been better than actually Lenny Williams, but.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Just Leo DiCaprio rather than Leonardo. No, don't know why
that was. That's great.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Well, they should give Traffls, they should give Taylor Swift
all their money and just thank her all the time.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
She's only been on once. She made their careers.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Well, Leonardo's dad did not appreciate the new headshots that
the agent had made up. You got it, so I
guess or something?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Georgi DiCaprio, Georgie, it's just George, but it's I guess
it's just George.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Yeah, George DiCaprio, George, why did you say Georgie because
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
I don't know why I said Georgie. Hey, Georgie because
I thought it was more Italian. But his name is
George Paul DiCaprio. Weird looking guy compared to Leo. Look
at these it looks like him and Leo are together,
and he he looks.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Like just a gone Jeremy.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Yah.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yeah, he looks like a guy that Leo met and
asked to a picture with.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Yeah, can I get a picture? Did that come from
that wild? This is insane?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
He looks like, yeah, he looks like Ron Jeremy can
can jeans skip a generation?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Maybe it came from the mom's side or something, but
I guess is a.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Mom not attractive either?
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Sometimes, like what the hell?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Whatever? That will happen. Sometimes there's two this guy, two
uggs make a really good looking well, then you'll have
two really good looking people and then you get anug.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, that's sad. There's are facts that like no offense. Look,
what are you about to say?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
You can't name it. I'll go, baby, you cannot do that.
You were going to Oh my god, it just happens.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
It just happens. Is weird?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
You must tell us off No, I'll never say it.
Taking it to your grave.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah, Leo's dad didn't like that, so he took the headshots,
ripped them up in front of the agent and said,
over my dead boy.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
I doubt that happened. I doubt that.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
That's what he said on the podcast. That's a cute story.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Well, obviously there are people celebrities that have changed their names,
but it's always interesting to hear what their original name were.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah, we have a recent one that we just found
out about Reese Witherspoon.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Her real names is that her name?
Speaker 3 (06:58):
No, and like and Jennifer and Stint found out at
the same time because a reporter asked, and Jennifer Neiston
was like, that's not your name. Reese, isn't your name.
Her birth name is Laura Jean Ree Witherspoon.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Oh, that's not that crazy. She went such a long name.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Well I guess, well, I guess Reese is her mom's
maiden name.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
So they it's almost like a hyphen thing.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
That's what you're doing.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
No, I'm making my son's first name is my wife's
maiden name.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Very similar, it's very similar. I wouldn't say this because
her name isn't the maiden name. It's in the name.
The maiden name is in the name, and it is now.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
It is now hyphen Buddy, what there's I didn't.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Say it was.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
It's exactly the same. It couldn't be anything. Her name
is Reese Witherspoon, which is.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
What else.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Miley cyrus real name is Destiny Hope. Excuse me, I
guess they called her Smiley growing up, and then when
they wanted a stage name.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
We Hope Cyrus. Yes, okay, yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Yeah, yeah, because the dad you know, Cyrus is yeah,
Cyrus Destiny Hope.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Let's get the two trendiest names and proved, like, why
would you change it? They're like, Destiny is a is
a better name than Miley.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
I feel like Destiny Hope is very stripperish a little bit.
Miley's a little more kid friendly.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, but look at the way she turned out, so
I mean maybe that would have done the opposite effect.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Wow, Okay, we.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Have Michael Keaton. His birth name was Michael Douglas.
Speaker 1 (08:39):

change it. That makes sense, though not bad.
