Speaker 1 (04:59):
Hey, I I had a really beautiful opportunity to work
with the funniest man in show business, and I have
not heard from him or seen him in quite some time.
And then somebody we mentioned him on the air, and
one of his friends happened to be listening that night
and gave me his cell phone number. So I took
the chance that he's gonna be pissed that I have
his phone number, and I called him and now he's

(05:22):
on with us.

Speaker 8 (05:22):
Jim J.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Bullock, how are you, Bob Yeam?

Speaker 8 (05:26):
Oh my god, Oh my god, it's so good to
hear your voice. You know.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
My first memory, first of all, too Close for Comfort
was fantastic. You were the best on Hollywood Squares and
then the show that we did called Boogie's Diner.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
I remember coming to Toronto and I was.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Hired to be you know, they sort of like hatchet
man and explain and try to explain to the people
here why the show wasn't really working. And I got there,
I left La was seventy degrees when I got to
Toronto it was minus fourteen. And the van going down
to Hamilton, you were sitting in the front and you
turned around and the first thing you said to me was,

(06:10):
are you a night out or a morning bird?

Speaker 8 (06:14):
Yes? And it was like five o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
I'm sure that's right.

Speaker 8 (06:18):
I was so I've always had such great energy in
the morning, and I'm so fricking obnogious. I'm sure you
were probably just, Oh, I've just taken a plane to
Hell and it's really cold here.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
But I enjoyed that show.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
You know the writers that came on in the second
season or so, you know, the other Tim Males, Doug McIntyre,
Doug Steckler, and I don't remember the last guy's name,
but I'll think of it.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
And they really turned that show around and it became.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Like a really a cool hit that that was proud
to be associated with.

Speaker 8 (06:55):
Yeah, me too. And you know, it's this is really
weird that I'm talking to you because I mean, literally,
it's been thirty years.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
Yeah, it must be thirty years.

Speaker 8 (07:07):
I think it was nineteen ninety three.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 8 (07:10):
God, you know I died in two thousand and five.
I don't know how I'm talking to you, but that,
you know, there was I met someone Sunday and I
was talking to them and he said, oh my god,
I used to watch Boogie's Diner. And I went, wow,
oh my god, you are kidding. You're the only person

(07:31):
on the planet who ever thought. And it's great that
people remember it. Yeah, it was a fun show and
we had such a great time. And then I'm watching
James Marsden on Jury Duty. He's huge now and he
has this new show called Jury Duty, and I'm watching
it going googling him and going, he's forty eight now

(07:52):
or something like that, and I thought, well, I was
thirty eight when we shot Boogie's Diner and he was
like eighteen. It was his first thing out of out
of the gate. It's so great.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
I remember we James Morrison was on that show. He
was hired, he had he had very little experience, and
everybody I thought he was going to be a huge superstar,
which he became, you know, a huge star. But I
remember on the second season he wanted an extra like
fifteen hundred bucks a week, and everyone's like, fifteen hundred bucks.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
Who's got that kind of money? Right now? Now, that's
one day of craft service?

Speaker 8 (08:31):
I hate.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
But I remember, I remember working on that show on
Boogie's Diner up in Canada, and and everything was was
just so Canadian up there. We were doing a run through,
a read through the script, and the and the craft
service woman was cooking bacon so loudly the actors couldn't
hear themselves.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
That's a true story.

Speaker 8 (08:54):
Yeah, I don't remember that, but I don't doubt that
at all.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
But what are you doing now? What keeps you busy?

Speaker 1 (09:03):
I'm sure you made a ton of money off all
these shows you've been working on. Just living off your
savings and your great investmentsage.

Speaker 8 (09:09):
Oh, just living off the revision of the Boogie's Signer alone.
I can't even tell you, sweet, I would like to
see that show again. Actually, I don't know if it
doesn't seem like it's been I you know, you know,
as you could probably YouTube or something, but I have,
you know, oh my god, thirty years. How do I
capitalize this? You know? I mean, in twenty eighteen, I

(09:30):
moved here Palm Springs because that's where all gay man
umber sixty migrate too. So you know, I flew down
with my flock, and I'm living here. I'm sort of
kind of kind of retired, you know. I'm still doing
this stuff if it's something I really want to do
or if it interests me, you know. But for the

(09:51):
most part, I'm just enjoying my lockdown here. I love
it so much. I'm keeping really busy with all sorts
of all the volunteer work. I'm a crazy cat person
and I see a lot of volunteer for cat stuff
and what else. I keep myself busy.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Jim, what is the one thing where everyone recognizes you from?

Speaker 4 (10:11):
Is it still too Close for Comfort?

Speaker 6 (10:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (10:16):
Too close for comfort is you know because that was
on That was a Network show, and that was on
from eighty to eighty six. So yeah, people, I get
recognized a lot, and I get a lot of really lovely,
lovely people come on up to me saying, you know,
I was I knew it was gay, but there was
no one else that I could talk to. I was scared.

(10:38):
And and then I'm seeing, I'm watching you on this show,
and you know, I kind of related to you. Maybe
I didn't know why I was relating to you or whatever,
but I connected with you, and it really helped me
through a really hard time in my young life. And
I am so glad. Wow be that person for for

(11:00):
you so many people over the years. No, isn't that wonderful.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
That's great because because when I met you, I thought
that whole gay thing was an act.

Speaker 4 (11:07):
I didn't know you were really gay.

Speaker 8 (11:09):
I'm just gay for pay. Yeah, uh I please, I'm
sure I was flirting with you when I turned around
and said you a knighthood or morning Now or whatever,
I said, that's great. And you know, I was terrified
going back to Boogie Designer. I was terrified to be out.

(11:33):
I had come out, you know down here, I mean
Hollywood Squares. I blew the handes off the closet doors.
I mean, you know, during too closer comfort, I wasn't
really it wasn't really he's gay straight. I don't know
what he was. He was he was asexual, right, But
then Hollywood Squares comes around and I'm like, oh, honey, please,
and here we go, and so you know, I'm so gay.

(11:56):
I'm so gay, and it's the early nineties. And then
I get this show, which I needed because kind of
after Hollywood Squares, I didn't work for a while. And
then I get this show and it was what's the
association with Pat Robertson With the show? There were association
with Pat.

Speaker 4 (12:14):
It was on like MTM or or I've met.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
I can't remember who was the big production company, but
it was a there was a really religious overtone to
that show, and that and that cable station to the
point where we were asked not to do even magic
on that show.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
That's how sensitive they were.

Speaker 8 (12:33):
Oh I know, And so here I am terrified. You
know that someone I go back into the clock.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
That's great. I didn't even think about that crew.

Speaker 8 (12:42):
Back on my hinges, you know. And I'm there, I'm
not acting straight. I'm not, I mean I have a
girlfriend or anything. So I'm sitting there and Monica Schnaire
remember her. Okay, so we're having lunch one day and
she goes, so, do you have a boyfriend? And I
felt like everything, my whole illusion just burst out and

(13:06):
I just I pulled my purse out of my mouth
and I said, yes I did, and I lived my
gay lot there and that's out and proud.

Speaker 4 (13:15):
That's so great, man.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
But you know now, but I have a feeling like, like,
you know, we have some people at work around here,
you know that you're young and that are gay, and
I don't think that they show enough respect to the
older guys and gals who really fought for them to
experience a normal lifestyle after they've come out of the closet.
Your generation and the generation before you, Man, that was tough.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
You had to everything.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
You had to calculate every move and everything you took
in show business as to you know, how it's going
to affect you and what you can and cannot say.

Speaker 8 (13:50):
Yeah, it's very true, and you know, it was a
very fearful time, especially in the eighties with age, you know,
and it's like because everyone was like didn't know what
was going on or how you got it. And it's
like if you if you know a gay person, you're
gonna get a and it's like, you know, just living
through that fear and that phobia. You know, it was
a tough time. And and you know, we all take

(14:13):
for granted what's where we come from and the battles
that were fought yesterday for us, you know, not not
just gay people, but you know everyone, uh, And so
that's our human nature to do that. But it's it's
I thank you for even saying that, because it is.
It's really wonderful to be reminded it is.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
Hold on, say Jim J. Bullock is with us. This
is great.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
One of my favorite guys in the world. He is
the funniest man in show business. He is right up
there with the funniest people in show business, the quickest mind,
the smartest guy, uh you'll ever meet. And I worked
with him for a year and a half on Boogie's Diner,
and man, that guy made everybody on the cast and
everybody in the crew laugh all day long in the

(15:00):
middle of Toronto and Hamilton where it was forty below
out and there's a nightmare to get to the show,
and it was tough to work on the show. That
guy is a comedy god, is Jim J.

did thirty years ago.

Speaker 8 (15:34):
Man, oh, I know, you know, I get recognized a
lot from my boys. You know, people were like, look
at me, and they'll go and they'll be staring and
then they'll say something. I'll say hi or whatever, and
though it is you, I guess, so, yeah, it is.
It is. My voice has kind of been a trademark
signature thing that I've had for all these years in it,

(15:56):

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Okay, have you I'm sure the book you can write

thought about writing?

Speaker 8 (16:08):
Yeah? I mean yeah about my life? Yes, I mean
it's just like I guess. I mean, I know, who
cares really the idea? When I really think about it,
I go, oh my god, please, you know.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Look, I think you should write a book. You're the
funniest guy in show business and always have, always have
been also one of the smartest guys. And man, when
you were going through, you know, the turmoil with I
don't know what. I don't believe it was your husband,
but I know you're a significant other and you never
and you always showed up with a smile and made
other people. Have you never dragged anybody else down with

(16:46):
your problems ever?

Speaker 8 (16:49):
Well, thank you. That's a chust. Nice of you. Thank you.
I appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
I don't know if you remember this, but one of
the guys who was the producer of the show, and
I'll just say his name, his first name is Gordon.
But Gordon was having a party at his house in
Toronto because we were picked up for a second season
and the writers all had a bet who could steal
the most expensive thing out of his house? And I

(17:16):
didn't know until it was over, but man, did he
get pissed when he found out all that crap was gone.

Speaker 8 (17:23):
Are you serious?

Speaker 4 (17:24):
Totally serious?

Speaker 1 (17:25):
I mean everybody, everybody returned it the next day, but
he couldn't believe he had a party and like nine
things were stolen from his house.

Speaker 8 (17:32):
Oh my gosh. I do vaguely remember that. I don't
think I stole.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
No, no, no.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
As a matter of fact, you're the guy that talked
to You're the guy that talked everybody into taking everything back.
You're like, how dare you this guy where you know,
had a party and you stole things. But we're just
we all had a bet for one hundred bucks who
could seal the most expensive things. We all returned it
the next day. But I thought that was interesting.

Speaker 8 (17:57):
Well, yeah, you know, I had friends once that back
in the day. They uh, they re arranged my whole
living room furniture. They moved on my furniture, and and
I had this Kennedy bus, this JFK. Kennedy bus, and
and stones they spelled out on the table like ask
not what your friends can do for you, what your

(18:18):
country can do for your what your friends can do
for you. Anyway, I came home and all I saw
was everything was re arranged, and I was just so pissed.
It did not follow me so the way they wanted it.
So maybe Gordon, maybe that's you know, they just fell
on him wrong. But he was a nice.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Guy and he was great gat everybody up on that
show was was.

Speaker 8 (18:41):
Terrific, and he had quite a track record.

Speaker 4 (18:44):
Yes, he was the executive rouser of the love boat.

Speaker 8 (18:48):
Love the Exciding and knew that's right.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
But I'm sure you got you got. Did you ever
get asked to do a love boat?

Speaker 8 (18:56):
No? No, you should have, and you know what, I'm
angry about that. I'm bitter about that still. But I
was even on ABC and love Boat was afore. I
never did a fantasy island or a love boat. You know,
that's that is tragic.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
Well, they're bringing it back, so maybe a round two
the last Jim J.

Speaker 8 (19:15):
Baller the bringing love Boat.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
But I think so, Yeah, there's talk of it coming back,
you know, because everybody's into cruising now. Everybody cruises. Everybody
gets one of those ships. They all get you know
intestinal you know, diarrhea and throwing up the whole time.

Speaker 4 (19:32):
And then the first thing.

Speaker 1 (19:32):

Speaker 1 (19:50):
You have you have agents and managers, somebody keeping your
you know your your your nose and show business still.

Speaker 8 (19:57):
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, I still you know, I, like
I said, I pick and choose really anymore like what
I want to do. I'm not, you know, chasing my
tail like I did for so many years, and all
the auditions and everything, I just never ever ever locked audition,
and in fact, in fact the Boogie Designer audition, I

(20:18):
have to tell you, I went over and this casting
director I don't know who it was, but she she said,
Willie read and so she taped me and I read
it and felt really good about it, and she said, okay,
can we do that one more time? And can you
possibly maybe and I went, butchered up. She has yet
if you could, I said okay, sure. So I did

(20:41):
it again and then she said, okay, you know what
I'm going to send the first and then like days later,
I'm not kidding you, like three days later, they called
My manager called me and said you got it and
I went, what, I got a call back right, And
she said, no, you got it, and I went, that's incredible.

(21:04):
I mean you have to go through callback after callback
to the callback and the fact that I just got
it for you know, my great day take was the great.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
That's fantastic. But I love the fact that she didn't
know how to ask you to butcher it up.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
That's awesome.

Speaker 8 (21:18):
Oh no, could you say? And she was just struggling
so hard with it. I said, butcher as, I'm taking
a drag off my Shirer's so great. See that we
all smoked back then.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah, but everybody smoked on that show. Everybody smoked on
that show.

Speaker 8 (21:36):
Everybody, Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
They would take a smoke break and nine hundred people
would be outside, you know, in the forty I.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Remember, because Canada had just changed the law to where
you had to go out and smoke, right, And so
I was like, well, I can't go out and smoke,
and so they gave me some sort of an air
filter thing that went in my great room, and so
consequently everyone one who smoke came into my diressroom. I
couldn't even go to my didressing room. It was so

(22:05):
discussed between the bacon and the smoke buddy.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
You have to write a book, and you're and you're
always welcome and come on the show to promote it.
But you have the greatest stories, I mean, just the
simple stories that you told today on the on the
air are terrific.

Speaker 4 (22:20):

And then somebody happened to be at his house and
was driving back his home and listening to the radio
and I was talking about Jim J. Bullock and all
came together. But man, what a funny guy. That is,
just a really funny, smart man.

Speaker 4 (23:10):

Speaker 1 (23:25):
There was a small town up in Washington where the
cops pulled you over during the holidays. Instead of giving
you a ticket, they gave you a twenty five dollars
gift card to like RB's or you know, or subway
or something. But I always thought, Okay, you know, they're
pulling people over not for traffic infractions, but they're pulling
over just to get you know, because they see kids

(23:47):
in the car, and they want to.

Speaker 4 (23:47):
Give you a gift certificate and let you go. Anyway.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
Now here's the problem. What if they pull lady over,
she's got three kids in the car, and they pull over, Hey,
we didn't stop you for anything. I want to give
you a gift certificate. And holy Christ, it smells like
vodka and gin in here.

Speaker 4 (24:03):
It turns into away something.

Speaker 5 (24:04):
Yeah, and she's bombed. What did they do then, yeah,
because it wouldn't be considered that. Can they do anything legally?
I don't know, because that's not why they pulled them over,
that's right, And they didn't pull them over for a
legal reason, right, But.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
If they'd let him go and those kids got injured
or God forbid, you know that the cartwheel?

Speaker 4 (24:21):
Then, man, I don't know. I guess they just have
to detain them there. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
I think they got to give her a ride home
and they maybe the kids home and she gets a
lucky break. But I don't know if they can you know,
because they didn't pull her over because they thought she
was drunk. They pulled her out just get a give certificate.
I don't know how that works. I don't know. That's odd.

Speaker 4 (24:37):
They pull you over, are you obligated to pull over?

Speaker 1 (24:42):
I wonder if that's ever started a high speed chase. Yeah,
that's why I'm wondering. What if somebody doesn't pull over?

Speaker 4 (24:46):
Oh that's great, Yeah, guys wanted for something.

Speaker 5 (24:49):
They probably just I bet that they probably follow somebody,
turn the lights on, whatever it is they do to
pull them over. But if they don't pull them over,
they probably and just keep going. They probably just either
give them a little bit of time and they say, nah,
they're God, they're not going to But you know, here's
how you know you're getting old. My grandfather told me this,
and he's exactly right. But when I was younger and
I got pulled over by cops.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
I was.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
I was scared. Now as i'm older, if I get
pulled over by cops, I'm pissed. That's when you know
you're getting old. What Wait a minute, what did I do?

Speaker 4 (25:21):
What are you talking? I was doing thirty seven and
thirty five? Come on? Have you ever gone off on
a cop? No? No, I've not. But you know I
don't knock on wood. I've not been pulled over.

Speaker 8 (25:33):
God.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
I the last time I got pulled over and got
a ticket, I think my daughter was two, because I look,
I've I got. I got a really good lesson by
an Oregon cop. I was coming over the bridge.

Speaker 4 (25:46):
It was the.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Lewis and Clark Bridge that connects Oregon to Washington, and
I had to get home right to hit the can
And the speed limit on that bridge is thirty five
miles an hour, and I was doing seventy five miles
an hour on that bridge, and I thought to myself,
the only place they can't get me with the speed

(26:09):
gun is on the bridge. How the hell they going
to tell how fast I'm going if I'm on the
bridge right, So I'm doing seventy five, you know, and
I'm screaming to try to get home and there's a
cop at the base of that bridge and he comes
out right behind me, lights on and I'm done.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
I am done, And he pulled me over.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
He gave me the whole lecture about you know, I'm
speeding on the bridge and having my daughter in the
car too, and it was a real and he said
to me. I said, look, I'm only I'm here for
two weeks. Then we're going back to California. He goes,
here's what I do. He goes, I'm not going to
give you this ticket because I was based at the
bottom of that bridge and we couldn't tell how fast
you were going, but we knew you were going too fast. Yeah,

(26:49):
but I will tell you this. I'm gonna write your
name down.

Speaker 8 (26:51):
He was.

Speaker 4 (26:52):
The name is Officer Brown.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
I remember that. I'm gonna write your name down in
my black book. If I'm gonna be around for the
next two weeks, if I see you do anything else,
I'm gonna give you a ticket for that and for this.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
And I said, you got it, and man, do that.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
But all right, I straightened up my act and I
since then, I've been driving the speed limit.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Yeah, that guy, that guy got that guy gave me
a break and taught me a lesson.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
I said, I gotta slow down. I got it. I
can't keep doing this.

Speaker 5 (27:17):
I got pulled over one time for not having a
front license plate. Oh yeah, which it's right. It was
a long time ago, is I think it was right
around the time that they first enacted that law. Right,
and Uh. There was a guy that was behind me.
It was on surface streets, it was. It was near
the old station near on Wilshirt. Cops pulled me over.
I was just about getting the freeway and I'm like,

(27:37):
what I did nothing? The guy behind me literally ran
the red light and I said, uh, what's going on?
And they said, oh, pulled you over because you don't
have a front license plate.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
You were sitting.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
I saw you sitting at the intersection. This is what
you got.

Speaker 8 (27:55):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (27:56):
I did the whole outfit because because he was already
giving me the ticket at that point, so I.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
Was like, really, you're gonna give me this ticket? You
guys got nothing better to He got screwed. I did that,
I said. The guy behind me ran the light. I
got pulled over. Doug Steckler was driving.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
He was driving us both home one day and he
got pulled over, and the cop comes up to the window,
and the cop says, do you know why I'm pulling
you over? And Doug Secler without skipping a becos well,
evidently I did something you didn't like.

Speaker 4 (28:25):
Yeah. The cop laughed at that. He thought it was
pretty funny. He goes, yeah, that's true, he goes, I
did this. You did do something I didn't like.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
Yeah, But but it is when you're young, you're you
get nervous getting pulled over, like you have your papers
in order, and you know why am I getting pulled over?
And you know how big a deal is this going
to be? But as you get older, you get pissed,
you know. But my grandfather got pissed when he got
pulled over. I got sons up. I pulled me over, but.

Speaker 4 (28:51):
Got crazy.

Speaker 5 (28:51):
I generally don't get mad or anything that I get
it that time. Whoof man, that was the one time.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
That's great. And I only started when he gave it
the ticket. That's great. I waited.

Speaker 5 (29:01):
I was very nice, thinking I'll get a you know,
it's a warning. I figured it was going to be
a warning.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
No take what it costs? Do you remember now? A
few hundred? I think really yeah, and it was obviously
it was a fix it. Oh yeah, you're gonna had
to prove a DMV and the whole run.

Speaker 9 (29:14):
Yeah, you're listening to Tim conwaytun you're on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Some reason, these june bugs keep getting coming in the house.
I don't know if you guys deal with this.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
I get these big ass june bugs coming in the house,
and because they don't bite or sting, I don't kill them.
My policy in my house as if a bug comes
in and it can sting me or bite me, it's
lights out.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
It's over. So spiders, bees, wasps, I don't deal with it. Done.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
But if I see a june bug, I catch it,
or or a cricket, I catch it and I throw
it out in the yard. I squeeze it very lightly
in a paper towel, and I walk it outside. And
I always say the same thing to the bug as
I release it. Tell the world, tell them to stay
the f out of my house. No go tell the

(30:06):
world that I SACRIMI saved your life. And I wonder
if that happens. I wonder if a june bug, when
he's inside the house he can't get out. He can't
get through those American vision windows. I wonder if he
and I capture him in a paper towel. I think
he came through the chimney. I wonder if he goes
out in the world and goes, God Almighty, what a

(30:26):
story I got. I was in that house for three
days and they were chasing me. I was flying around
and there's one cat with some kind of big, huge
paper caught me and he squeezed me. Not hard enough
to kill me, but he squeezed me fell kind of good,
and he threw me out of that house. I wonder

(30:47):
if they'd tell other bugs about their experience. He probably
tells his family when he gets home. Yeah, right, you're
not gonna believe what happened to me today, right, And
then you know, and then the uncle's like, oh, let
me tell me guess paper towel thrown out of on
your ass, right right?

Speaker 8 (31:02):
No?

Speaker 10 (31:02):
And then the other uncle's like, that happened to me once.

Speaker 4 (31:05):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
But I wonder if they do like I don't think
they do, because you know, I when when ants come
into the house, I wipe them out, and I must
have killed millions of ants in my life, and they
keep coming in the house. They never learned, Like one
generation after another after another, they never learned that it's
off limits to come into my house.

Speaker 10 (31:26):
Non learners.

Speaker 4 (31:27):
Yeah, they're absolutely are.

Speaker 10 (31:28):
They're the younger generations and wred never got back to them.

Speaker 8 (31:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Or they think they can win, you know, like, ah,
screw that guy, there's more of us than there are him.

Speaker 4 (31:36):
Oh he's got that can. Or they think they're going
to be the one to beat the story that come
in and survive. Yeah, and they never do. They never learned,
They never learned.

The MTV Music Awards, though it was.

hours to put that together?

Speaker 10 (35:36):
Submit this audio to the producers, you might have yourself
a gig.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
Yeah, but I don't think i'd be feel comfortable walking
across the picket line. I'd have to be in the
back of some limma with the tinted windows.

Speaker 10 (35:51):
Okay, we can arrange that.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Okay, I don't want them to see me and.

Speaker 10 (35:56):
All, yea, well they'll know, you know, well they might.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
I don't know how bright they are, but maybe maybe
they won't be picketing on Sunday night.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
Do you think they'll be picketing the awards? Yes, the
MTV Awards, I think so.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Oh yeah, probably right, And then every celebrity that crosses
those pickets, that picket line, they're going to be uh,
you know, yelled at. Scab that's what they still call them, right, scabs? Yeah,
they still call them scabs. I don't think so. I
want to see how that happens, right in a complete
show that was written, prepared, probably rehearsed, locked off, and

(36:32):
now they have to change everything. Everything has to be
changed without writers. You have to change everything without writers,
and you're not going to get most celebrities across the
picket line.

Speaker 4 (36:43):
So what do you get? What do you get?

Speaker 1 (36:46):
Show us what you got? Show us what you got? Sunday?

on MTV.
