Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everybody to the Paparazzi Podcast. I am Jedi.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
He is Mark, and the reason I am sore is
I've just done eight flights in under forty eight hours.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Wow. That was going to be my next thing was
maybe your as hurts because you were on such a
long flight.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Now I've pinched a nerve in my back and it
absolutely hurts to fuck. It's almost it's going all the
way up the side into my neck and I've got
this like spray that I've been spraying on myself all day.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
It's very painful.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
It's in like the back, like the spine.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
All the way down the side of the right hand side.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Yeah, So I've been getting in and out of the
car today like a ninety year old man.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Well, you need to go back to riding business class.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
I know, mate, I know.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Yeah, I've not been so fortunate as of late. But
you know from you can probably tell from me saying
I've can eight flights in the past half many days
that i have been busy, which is nice. It seems
to have picked up again. We did have a little
lull the last time we spoke, but it's hopefully things

(01:13):
are turning around.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
You know, we only can hope. This kind is very
strange at the moment, and.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
It's volatile, isn't it. It's volatile, it is.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
It used to be a sure thing and now it's volatile.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
So we'll see, you know, Prayers and thoughts to our
fellow comrades out there. I hope businesses, you know, going
okay for the majority of.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
You, some of you, we don't like this.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Yeah, I just got well, I just got out of
the car and all. Well. For the past couple of hours,
I've been listening to Jeremy Renner's audiobook Oh Okay, and
fuck it's crazy heavy. Well, I mean, he's just kind
of setting it up right now, and it's all about

(02:04):
the snowstorm that they were in before and his time
in Reno and stuff. And you know, my family lives
up in Reno, so I kind of know what he's
talking about, kind of relate when he gets there. But
I did listen to him on Joe Rogan, so I
do kind of know what he's going to talk about,
and it's pretty intense. I think he's going to go
through the accident just like bit by bit and Christ

(02:27):
he had a lot of bits.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
That's going to be two years ago now. He was
flattened by his snow.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Cloud January first, twenty twenty three. A.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, So.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
I can't wait to get into the rest of it.
And so far it's great. And I got all the
respect for Jeremy renner He's you know, he's a real
all around as far as I know and as far
as what I see, and you know, as far as
he's been when I've shot him, just an all around
good guy, good father, good celebrity, good movie star.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
You know, dude's a character man.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
You know, I've spoken at time and get time and
time again on the podcast. I was on a flight
from LA to Seattle or Seattle to LA years ago,
and RENNERD was in the row, same role as me,
with an assistant, and he was just he had his
headphones on and he was just vibing, just vibing on

(03:24):
the plane and the.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
What do you mean by that?

Speaker 2 (03:28):
He had his headphones on and he was just you know, listen,
just so into the music. His head's bobbed, you know,
you could tell he was listening to some straight fire.
And the flight attendant asked his assistant what he was
listening to and he said, Oh, he's listening to one
of his own records. Yeah, And I mean I've never

(03:50):
listened to any of his music, and you know, I
didn't know that he had his own music when he
got a lie.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
I think you. I think we had a contest on
this podcast where we tried to figure out who or
was that was that? Were you hosting at that point
or was that the previous host? I played Renner's song
and you tried to guess who it was.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Oh, that's funny. Yeah, he's definitely got songs.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
He does have songs. I wouldn't. That's the one thing
that I that I could probably say he should maybe
stop doing. You know he did. He's not bad. I'm
not gonna say he's bad, but he should probably just
stick to the day job at this point and try.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
What is it like ballads? Love songs?

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Yeah, I mean the one that comes to mind that
we played on the podcast ways back was it was
a rock song. But it's just you know, if it
was today's music, I would say it was Ai written.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, I'm looking at main attraction, best part of me.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
Oh my god, they haven't even got the good one yet.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Wait, the one house of the Rising Sun, everything changes.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Wow, I don't even know those.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
She's a fire live for now believer. Man, Guys, he's prolific.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
Yeah. I don't think he's going to sell out any stadiums,
but you know, if you want to, if you want
to listen to some kind of maybe inspirational rock going.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
He thinks he's good anyway, doesn't He thinks he thinks.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
He's good and he could do it, so he can
do it.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
He at least tries fair play.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
Yeah. Shall I get into some things that I've done lately? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah, Yeah, there's some.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
That I meant to talk about on the last podcast,
and they're getting old and I could just blaze through
him really fast. I got the couple of the year
just a couple of weeks ago. Maybe it was last week.
The couple of the year could be the decade. Ooh hmmm,
Mary's virgin Ah and Ted Danson. Wow, I'm not sure

(06:01):
that's how you say her name. Actually, stein Bergen.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Steenbergen, Stegen, longen Bung and Ding. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
I mean, I think it is very rare to get
them on a movie set together, so I'm actually kind
of proud of that. But they definitely didn't sell anywhere.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
As a paparazzi podcast plus PPP.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yes, exactly, but we'll go with a little promarazzi in
this and we'll say it was the Man on the Inside.
That's the show, that Ted Dance's show, that's the season two.
So we will definitely give a plug everybody goes out there.
I have not seen the show.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
I didn't even know Ted and Mary were a married couple,
and so you told me like two minutes before we
started filming recording. I mean, obviously they were married and cubbed,
but I had no.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Idea they actually were. That's pretty funny, you know.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
I'd heard they were married a long time ago. And
I shot Ted Danson maybe two years ago, and he
was going some random woman's house that, yeah, maybe have
been his daughter, but she was still pretty old and
I couldn't tell that if he was cheating on Mary
or not.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Jesus, and so.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
I kind of waited around for him just to see
what happened. But I don't think he was. But they've
been married for a while and got him on the
got him on the on the set together. So there's
a you know, a couple of stripes on my uniform
right there.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
There you go. I don't think. I don't think I've
ever shot ted. I'm not sure. No, nothing comes to mind.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
I we have a a ppisode, an old papisode on
the YouTube channel. Uh not our YouTube channel, but my
old YouTube channel where we did the I did the
episodes and we got ted Danson and Mary actually out
in Beverly Hills.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Ah.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
Check that out. Papisodes people, papisodes.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
There you go. I remember those. They're great.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Also, was at the golf court the other day.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Oh okay.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
I was in the middle of my round and I
realized that that whole seventeen was closed when we got
up till whole seventeen, right. I wasn't warned about it
ahead of time, that we weren't going to be able
to play seventeen. I was scoring one of the best
games of my life, and I looked ahead on the
seventeenth green and I realized it was filming going on.

(08:23):
So I did what any golfing pap would do, which
is go and get my camera and investigate. Right turns
out they were filming reshoots or inserts for Happy Gilmour
two at Rancho Park. I pulled out the old infiltrator
used my cover as a golfer to get around, but

(08:47):
still tried to get photos while I was still out
on my round. There was a lot of attention to
this thing, so I've got a few shots Adam Sandler.
It looked like a scene where Adam was maybe or
Happy Gilmore was running a junior camp for many Happy Gilmore's.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Oh that's funny.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
I posted some of it on the Instagram and some
of the other social media's a couple of days ago.
But Adam did not pick up a golf club because
he was not doing any inserts for himself, which kind
of sucked. But they were doing some crowd stuff, you know,
the guys that have their Happy Gilmore painted on their
you know, naked chests, and so it was he was Oh,

(09:32):
he was there. He was there just to kind of direct,
I think, and just you know, talk about things or whatever.
I didn't see him with a golf club. He could
have been there before I was there with a golf
club maybe, but I only got shot to him walking
around and just some of the some video of the
stuff going on. Also, don't think it's sold anywhere, man.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
It's out July twenty fifth, so they better get all
those those chopped and scenes and shit in there quickly.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what it is, because
it looked like a scene that they were filming where
all the little happy Gilmour kids were beating the shit
out of a little country club kid. So it looked
kind of funny. Actually, also came across a Eva Longoria
photo shoot that we won't spend too much time talking about.
Competition there and her security and herself were acting like

(10:28):
she was freaking Beyonce.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Really wow.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
I mean, there's nothing that she can do. It was
a lorial commercial and she was walking across a public
street in downtown LA, so there's not much they could
do about it. But you know, the the amount of
attention I got, the looks, and you know, the attempting
to block and stuff was pretty ridiculous. But that's so crazy.
But fucking Longoria, Yeah, I know exactly. Well, and the suv,

(10:54):
you know, I didn't know who was in this commercial.
And the suv sat there by the by the trailer
for about an hour and I was parked in a
red zone that you know downtown. You're parked in a
red zone, you're gonna get a big ticket if they
catch you there. And I sat there waiting for almost
an hour for her to get out of her stupid suv.
You know. When I see her get out, I was like, damn.

(11:15):
I was expecting j Loo or Beyonce or something like that,
but it was freaking Longoria.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
There's so much of a diva.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
I mean I've photographed her tons in the past and
she was always great, like you know, she'd always give
it up.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
Was that just her out on her own, not on act.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
I mean maybe it was the it's the Loril people
not wanting you know, the fucking commercial leaks or whatever.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Well, I've shot her on Gane the Virgin, and I
shot her on some other shows, and she's always been
the same on all of them. She's a full diva
when she's on. I think it's because of the shows.
I think it's because of the productions. I think because
she can, you know, because Eva Longoria that she can kind.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Of diva Longoria.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Yeah so, but there were great pictures of her. I think,
you know, some of the best I've seen. You know,
obviously three l commercials there. She's got her hair great,
and you know, whatever else they do to her.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Wow, she's fifty now.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
Then I was out in acting. You know where acting
is at Ohio? No, I'm sure if you asked ninety
nine percent of the US population where acting is, I
don't think anybody would know. But it's kind of funny because,
you know, acting has become a mecca for acting. Wow.

(12:36):
So it's out on the way out to Palmdale between the.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Sierra Polona Mountains and the San Gabriel.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
Mountains, exactly out there. But they've built a few ranches,
they've built a few you know, studios out there. Santa
Rita has become like a like a kind of a
outskirts Hollywood these days. And they were filming a show
that I didn't know what it was. It was obviously
a code name that I went out there to check.
I didn't know who was in it. But come to

(13:04):
find out, it's a show called Lucky Apple TV show
called Lucky starring Anya Taylor Joy.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
Oh, there you go.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
So, and I know she's pretty big right now.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:18):
I was actually comparing her to Sydney Sweeney, like I
was saying. I was saying, both of them right now
are about the same caliber. Not in like the private
relationship category, but in the movie category right there, about
the same caliber of actor right now. Yeah, So it

(13:39):
was a scene out there. It was a truck stop.
It was a scene of her, you know, you the
old the old scene where they're at a truck stop.
There's a lot of trucks just parked around each other,
and it's like a chase scene through the trucks, you know,
on foot, cause on foot, yeah, you know, they're all
parked like they're all kind of sleeping, you know whatever,

(14:01):
and it's like FBI agents that are chasing her through
you know, underneath the trucks and through the trucks, between
the trucks and stuff like that. Didn't get the greatest pictures,
but the picture still went. There was competition there, so
non exclusive, but she's a long way to go to
find out that you're non exclusive.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Which is a long way to go. Yeah, I mean
you're you're traveling that far obviously thinking that you're going
to have it to yourself.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
Yeah, exactly. And that's almost two hours for me to
get out there, you know, like shooting her. And she's
actually pretty cool. She's you know, she's got security, her
own security that that travel with her, but she herself
is I think is pretty cool when it comes to us. So,
and I'm kind of looking forward to the show. I

(14:45):
think it starts in Vegas or it's supposed to be
like a majority shot in Vegas. Yeah, and I think
she plays like a gambler or something like that. I
mean her name is Lucky.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Oh, Reese Witherspoon's in it as well.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
Oh really? Oh well yeah, I mean this is produced
by her.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
Oh I think Witherspoon's a producer, sorry, producer.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
Yeah, it's her. It's Reese Witherspoon's production company that's doing it. Okay,
we won't mention that because I don't want to promarazzi
her production company. Hello, Rainy Day or something like.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
That, whatever it is.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Didn't she sell one of those things for like a
billion dollars or something stupid though?

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Probably? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (15:23):
Wow, And she's coming out with probably the most anticipated
show of all time, which is the Legally Blonde prequel
TV show.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Oh really, I didn't even know that.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Where some they've got some actor for actress. I forget
who she is. She's playing young Reese Witherspoon in that thing.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Wow. Yeah, I'm surprised she didn't hire a kid to
do it.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
You know what. I was saying the same thing. And
she's been kind of breaking out lately. She just was
in that cruise ship show with Josh Jackson Doctor Cruise Ship.
And she was in that with Paris Jackson.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Oh my god, fucking nepotism all over.

Speaker 3 (16:02):
Yeah, Paris Jackson Eva Eva Philippi. And there was one
other one anyway, I can't remember. We posted about it
a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, flies way under my radar.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yeah, everything does with me these days.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
But then I was down at Venice Beach. I was
on an UG shoot, right, this is kind of an
interesting story. I was on an UG shoot there. It
turned out to be Elsa Hask who she's a kind
of an ex Victoria Secret model, as Stanley would say,
a Vicky model.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Oh yeah, wow, I see it now.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
And as Stanley would say, Elsa Osk mate, Elsa osc
and she's pregnant as well, Oh she is. She wasn't
in the fucking show in the shoot, that's for sure.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
Sarah, Jessica Parker and Elsa Osk film new UGG commercial
in Paris.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Yeah, I know. That was just like two weeks after
I'm like, why couldn't Sarah Jessica Parker be it in Venice?

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Right, Stephan Diggs?

Speaker 3 (17:05):
I had Stefan Diggs. That's what it was. I had
Stefan Diggs instead of instead of a Sarah Jessica Parker. Yeah,
Sarahjessica Parker.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Ex Buffalo Bill.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
Oh is he? Yeah? There you go relatable. Anyway, they
were out on the Venice Beach boardwalk. Elsa is one
of those vicky models that just loves it being shot.
Like she when she saw me there, she was looking
down my barrel like I was the primary photographer in

(17:35):
this shoot, you know what I mean. Like Adriana Lima,
Alsandro Brosio and Elsa hask they all have this where
you just love to shoot them because they're gonna give
it up to you almost more than they give it
up to the photographers on the shoot, you know. So
it was great to do. I could go anywhere I wanted.
Nobody bothered me. It was you know, there was no problem.

(17:57):
But the one guy that did bother me, and I'm
not going to say he bothered me, but he was
asking a lot of questions was a guy who came
up to me and obviously pointed out that he was
an aspiring actor. Just moved to Venice, just moved to
La and he's trying to get some roles as like
a cowboy. Taylor Sheridan was his kind of like focus

(18:18):
on like getting into one of these Yellowstone shows or
you know, one of those kind of shows. And he
looked the part. I mean, he was, you know, good
looking dude. He you know, he had the beard, he
had it all going. And I said, you know, I'm like,
do you do your own stunts? That's the thing good.
I'm like, what do you do? You work out your
own stunts. I'm like, if you get into doing your
own stunts and you can do that, you will make

(18:38):
it in this business. But as we were chatting, and
as he was kind of buttering himself up and to
sell himself to me, I looked over at the rings
where I'd shot Ashley Graham just you know, five six
years ago, which broke her out. Basically their first shots
of her on any kind of a photoshoot in like

(19:00):
a Bathy suit and stuff. But I look over at
these rings and I see fucking Cheach and Chong on
the fucking rings. Fuck yeado and it was one of
those things where I'm totally in conversation with this guy
and I look over and you know, it's no more
than twenty thirty feet away from me. I go look over,
and I go, is that fucking Cheatch and Shong? And

(19:20):
he goes, who oh my god, and I I just
kind of put my hand up. H I'm like, I
gotta go. Bro walked off, went over. Cheat and Shong
are there shooting, you know, some promo photos with a
photographer for their new movie. Cheach and Chong's last movie
that's coming out or I think it just came out
on four twenty or something.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
Sounds about right.

Speaker 3 (19:43):
Sounds about right right. And I shoot him a little
bit and they're at the like the end of their
photo shoot, you know, and they're very old. They don't
move too fast, you know the photos. They look like
they're really kind.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
Of getting into it.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
The minute that the photos stop, they're just like, oh
my back, oh this, oh, you know, and they come
walking off, and I'm thinking to myself, I got to
get a picture with these guys, because there's never there's
probably never going to be an opportunity in anybody's life. Yeah,
cheech and Chong and a selfie, you know, with both
of those guys at the same time. So I go

(20:19):
up to Cheach. They're kind of both together, but they're
kind of staggered, and I go up to Cheach and
I go, hey, Cheech, like, is there any way I
can get a picture. I'm a big, big fan of
you guys. You know, I've been taking pictures here. I'm
about to promote the movie for you, you know, is
there any way I can get a picture with you
and you and Tommy? He and he goes to like
say yes, like I could see him going opening his

(20:39):
mouth to say yes of course or something like that,
and the manager or whoever it was, the young woman
that was kind of like in charge of the whole
thing just totally steps in and goes, no, sorry, oh,
And then Cheech just kind of has this look on
his face like yeah, you know what she says, oh man,

(21:00):
And I kind of look at him and I'm just like,
because he understands, I mean, he's got to understand. He
sees my age, he knows that I'm that I'm of
that age of and it's a once in a lifetime
opportunity to fucking get a picture with these guys, you know,
oh man, and and she totally shut me down, and
she's like, oh yeah, we're uh, we have we're late

(21:20):
for a reservation right now to go eat. And I'm
like fuck. So I kind of followed him a little
bit on foot because I was like, if this bitch
leaves them for ten seconds, yeah you're in, I'm fucking
going up to him and asking him again. You know. Yeah,
she never left their side. They went over to fucking
Great White, and they went in a Great White and
they went inside. So he missed my opportunity. There's a

(21:44):
couple of things in this business. Jedi. Okay, I saw
fucking stan Lee. I think I said this on the
fucking podcast. I saw stan Lee just a couple of
weeks before he died, or maybe a couple of months
before he died, walking in Beverly Hills while I was
driving and I tried to pull over and traffic would
not let me pull over where I was, and I

(22:05):
wanted to get a fucking photo with that guy. Never
got an opportunity to do it. Cheech and Sean getting
an opportunity with them very close second, you know, would
be it would be awesome. The third which I did
get was me and sug Knight.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Oh there you go.

Speaker 3 (22:20):
So I do have one that is pretty legendary. Yeah,
that's pretty much it for the last few weeks for me.
I mean, I've got other stuff. Got stupid. Kristen Bell
on her new show for second season.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Do not promote it?

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Not going to promote it even though it is a
good show.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
No, oh yeah it is. I remember my show.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
I liked it. Well, I'm not going to promote it
for k Bell. You know.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, I liked it as well, very good. Don't don't
check it out.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
Yeah, don't check it out. Check out Adam Brody and
check out the show, but don't check out Cres and
Bell at all.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Yeah. Yeah, you know, I'm excited for that show.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, second season is filming right now.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Hey her love the show.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
Actually, what I want to I do want to say
something I do. I have shot her on the show now,
like twice or something, you know.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Yeah, And it's.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
Kind of like Adam Sandler, Like Adam Sandler is just
dressed like himself, acts like himself. He is himself on set,
so really he's not doing anything, he's not not acting.
It's just him hanging out on set and getting paid
a shitload of money to just be there and get
his ass kicked by everybody or his ass kiss by

(23:25):
everybody around. Right. Absolutely, Kristen Bell is in the same situation. Now,
she's on the show where she doesn't She's in freaking
sweatpants and a sweatshirt, she's in uggs and she just
gets to hang out on this set, everybody kisses her ass,
and she just plays herself the whole time. Yeah. Yeah,
it's a tough gig, but that's it for me. I
know our time is coming up here, but looks like

(23:46):
we've got a few minutes left, which you got, Bud.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
I mean I've been a way. I've been on jobs,
not all of them have been successful, but there's only
one I can actually talk about at the moment.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
I was down in.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Nashville again last week, one of my favorite places to
visit as a tourist and for work. The best Indian
food that I've had in the US is from a
restaurant in Nashville, so it's fantastic. That was my first
first porter call on this trip. It was a job

(24:20):
for one of the outlets who like like stories on
reality TV shows, you know, I go and do them
every now and then for them, And it was I
was back doing American Pickers, which is one of my
favorite things to do. I absolutely love it, only because
it's it's very It's not easy, but if you work

(24:43):
it the right way, you can get a ton of pictures.
So I was photographing Mike Wolfe.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
He's got a place.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Sorry, I saw those pictures.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
Yeah, yeah, so's. He's got a place called Columbia Motor
Alley down in Columbia, Tennessee, like forty minutes forty five
minutes south of Nashville, maybe about an hour, but I'm
not quite sure what it is.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
It's an old garage basically, but it doesn't fix cars anymore.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
It it's just.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
A place where he holds a bunch of his really
cool shit, so like old cars, old motorbikes, all that
kind of fun stuff. But I think it's every third
Thursday of a month, starting from the Thursday last month,
he holds an event there called Cars and Coffee where

(25:40):
they set up like a coffee station outside and tons
of you know, car enthusiasts will come down and bring
their their like souped up cars or their super old cars,
like their retro pickups and all that kind of fun stuff.
And he brings out a bunch of his old cars
as well, and they basically all go around drinking coffee

(26:02):
looking at each other's cars.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
So it was pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
He was promoting it on on his Instagram, so we thought,
you know what, he is going to be showing up
to this event, and that's what prompted prompted the job.
But anyway, like he shows up with his girlfriend Letitia,
pulled up in these like old fifties or sixties matching
fuck I can't think of a name of the cars,
but matching old cars, and they were they were just sick.

(26:27):
And from there, for the next like four hours, I
was just hosing him, absolutely fucking hosing him, and there
were so many people around it was it was difficult
to get anything from long range with a long lens,
so I had to break out the short lens. No flash,
just a short lens, just a short lens on the

(26:48):
on the on the body, and like there were other
people with like semi professional cameras around like taking photos
of the cars and whatnot. So I blended right in
and I was so close that I got him setting
up one of the merch stands. I got his girlfriend
work in the counter behind the store. I was, I

(27:08):
was fully immersed within like the event. I just blended
him perfectly with my beard in my trucker cap, I
fit right in.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
Had you not met him before, I thought you.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
I've not met him. I've been I've been cussed out
by him, like.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
You know.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
Last time I did shoot him was just after Frank Fritz,
you know, his co host in Pickers had passed away,
so he wasn't in the greatest of moods. And the
only reason he spotted me was because there was another
photographer there from another agency and we kind of had to,

(27:49):
you know, shoot it with a.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
Little more recklessly than than usual.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Yeah, and the set that we shot the day before
got put out, and obviously he was aware that there
were photographers around, and he spotted us like in the
same spot that I had shot him from the day before.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
But yeah, he.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
Didn't you know, I had a hat on, I've got
a beard. I didn't have a beard last time. He
was you know, he was unsuspecting. So managed to get
a ton of really good pictures that were really happy
with me, you know, I'm sure you can google Mike
Wolf cars and coffee and you'll see those pictures.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Yeah, but that's all I've shot recently. Recently, I've been
on a couple of news stories, chasing a couple of
leads here and there as well, trying to get other
bits and pieces, but nothing, nothing really too exciting where
there's a decent story as of yet.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
I do have some good ones coming up, though, so
I'm really looking forward today for the next podcast. Yeah,
I should be I should be away doing it this
time next week, So I'm looking looking forward to that.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
I can't wait to hear about it.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
A little teaser, a little tea.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
Well, that was a good job taking care of that
in a couple of minut and it's there. But now
we will take a break and Jedi is frozen, and
we will be right back in a minute.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
And we're back, and we're back.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
Hello. On the break, I was in there watching some
news and then the SpaceX launch popped up on the
news and I'm like, wow, I'm like, nobody gave a
shit about fucking SpaceX launches, but now that Elon is
making this impression everywhere, you know, good or bad. But
people have to show the SpaceX launches, and which is

(29:33):
funny because they were launching Starlink satellites. Yeah, it's normally
what they're doing now with the Elon stuff, right, Starlink stuff.
And I did see that Bezos just after his stupid
Blue Origin thing that he did, he tried to launch
his own internet satellite service into Really do you see that? No,

(29:57):
last week I think, or just a few days ago,
he launches his first fucking Bezos Amazon version of Starlink
satellites into the fucking thing. And I'm thinking to myself, Okay,
Elon's been doing this for fucking years now, He's got
an unheard of amounts of fucking satellites up there to
do this, Like, why do we need more more fucking

(30:20):
satellites up there? First of all? And second of all,
why are we allowing Bezos to be like, Hey, my
dick is as big as yours. I can fucking put
my own Starlink satellites up there?

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Now?

Speaker 3 (30:30):
Why are we Why do we have complete disregard for
fucking like what's going on in our fucking orbit? You
know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (30:37):
O shit, because that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
Just so these guys can have a fucking dick size competition,
you know.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Project Queeper or Keeper or caeper we pay.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
K U, I p e R stupid project kipper, like
I think I think Elon has the fucking whole thing. Like,
let's let's just leave that. And it was crazy. The
other night, my daughter, she was sitting out in a
car with her boyfriend out in front of the house,
which was, you know, very suspect, but she she yells
to me and she goes, Dad, you know, check this out.

(31:10):
What is this thing you know coming along? And it
was the Starling satellites. And if anybody's ever seen them,
you know, they look like a fucking giant like satellite
centipede in the sky as it goes over your head,
you know, And it was kind of cool to see.
But you know, there's so many of those fucking satellites
up in our atmosphere, you know. And I did hear,

(31:31):
you know, probably twenty years ago or something when I
was in a I think I was in some tech
class in college or and they were saying, like, one day,
we're not going to be able to get off this
Earth because we're going to have so much fucking space
debris that unless we figure out a way to shield
ourselves and the vehicles that are trying to get out
of here, that we won't even be able to get
off this fucking planet. Wow, these guys wash their asses.

(31:55):
I still hear that Katy Perry's getting all sorts of
shit for this fucking Blue Origin stuff, which I of.
And speaking of space ships, I've been trying to figure
out what that fucking thing is behind you, dude.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
It looks like a spaceship, doesn't it.

Speaker 3 (32:08):
I mean, if you're into like star wars and sci
fi stuff like I am, that thing looks like like
a mothership that was in like Alien or something that
is you know, the different sections, you know, like this
one is the command ship, this one is this there's
you know, and it's just rotating as it goes out
into the deep space.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
This one between my hands looks like a butt plug.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
There you go. Yeah, I wasn't thinking that, but I'm glad.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, I've got to look at it in the reflection
of the screen because it hurts so much to move around.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Don't turn around for the for the listening audience. Jedi
is in immense pain right now trying to move around
in his chair. You can't tell by listening to him, but.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
Pillow on my chair as well.

Speaker 3 (32:53):
Yeah, I'm in agony, mate, everybody say a prayer for Jedi.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Yeah, my back is in pieces, fucking falling the part man.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
So I mean in the news, I mean I haven't
really seen too much in the news unless you've got
something else. I mean, we did get through a second
weekend of Coachella. Yeah, we did get through a weekend
of Stage Coach, which I always find kind of funny
because you know, you and I are you know, country

(33:23):
music fans, you know, to an extent, and I've been
listening to country music my whole entire life. I wouldn't
say I was a country fan my whole entire life,
but you know, the new country boom has, you know,
obviously done something, and just every year at Stage Coach,
I'm just seeing the celebrities turning in it basically into

(33:44):
the third weekend of Coachella. Oh yeah, except they put
on a cowboy hat and they fucking put on some
chaps or fucking cowboy boots and they go exactly, now,
it's fucking stage coach. Now I'm a fucking huge fan,
and they go, oh, weekend of my life, and shit,
so that's kind of funny, and then leading right into
Beyonce's Poser Country five night at Sofi that she tell

(34:11):
a goddamn ticket for I.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
Know, I saw there were tickets going for as low
as twenty seven dollars.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
Twenty seven. I didn't hear that low. But morning on
the news they're like, yeah, get tickets for.

Speaker 1 (34:22):
Sixty bucks, yeah, twenty seven.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
I saw some crowd shots from night one, you know,
opening night as so far there are a lot of
empty seats.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
Yeah, I'm sure Beyonce, you know, told that the entire
camera crew that's around because you can't control with the
public shoots, but the whole camera crew, I'm sure she's like,
let's keep low angles, let's not show the top of
the stadium, you know, whenever we can, oh for sure.
And tonight specifically, Jedi, you'lla and anybody who lives around

(34:54):
in LA will understand this. Tonight in that area, we
have Beyonce, we have the Slippers playoff Game five, Wow,
and we have the King's Game five viewing at the
Cosm Jesus Christ. So it's gonna be somewhat of a
karmageddon over there, probably about right now. Yeah, it's all.

(35:15):
It's probably chaos over there right now as we record this,
So we haven't really got into what you're watching lately,
right right? What did we do last time? What did
we talk about? Because I have a list of things
I've been watching shows like it's fucking COVID dude.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
Well I need some good ones that I can get into.

Speaker 3 (35:34):
So what did we talk about last time? Do you remember?

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Mate? I don't remember what I had for dinner an
hour ago.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
Okay, Well, if we have got into some things from
last time, I do apologize.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
I know we haven't talked about the ones that I've
seen because I remember not talking about them.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Okay, So maybe maybe we can go with go ahead,
go ahead of my watch watchings.

Speaker 3 (35:58):
Go ahead, go ahead.

Speaker 1 (36:01):
So I've seen you know, I'm not a movie guy.
I don't go to the movie theater. If I watch something,
it's it's on a plane or it's on a streaming
service already. So I went back to England recently, a
month or so ago. I watched a ton of movies
on the plane. I don't know you have you seen

(36:24):
Anora yet? The one that the little girl won the
oscar for?

Speaker 3 (36:29):
No, I haven't seen it the one of the hookers, right, yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
The one about the hookers and the lap dancers.

Speaker 3 (36:35):
And no, I really do want to see it. I'm
just waiting to see it for free. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Well I watched it for free on a plane.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
I always feel really awkward watching movies on planes where
there is there's a ton of nudity. It opens up
a ton of lap dancing scenes.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
Tits up, and I'm just, you know, trying not to
be seen watching watching a blue movie.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
But yeah, it's it's a long movie.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Well just real quick, Jedi. Sorry, when the movie wins
Academy Awards, you could watch it on any plane, anytime,
even with your fucking, you know, two year old next
to you, and you'll be fine. We'll be judged, you
know what I mean. So, because that's an Academy award.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Right, Well there you go.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
Yeah, so watch away, Watch Away.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Do I do I think she deserved the Oscar? No?
I mean she was very good dancing on a pole
and stripping. Say, it was a long movie.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
The first like hour forty minutes were really good and
then they were just like plot hole off the plot hole,
and shit was dragged out and dragged on and you know,
if they'd made it a ninety minute movie, it could
have been.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
Great if they'd cut out all the bullshit. But yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
Watched watched another movie right after that, one that I
thought was much better and and the acting in it
was fucking brilliant as well.

Speaker 1 (38:08):
Again, I don't know if you've seen it, The Apprentice.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
Is that with Sebastian Stanis Trump?

Speaker 1 (38:15):
It is?

Speaker 3 (38:16):
Yeah, I haven't seen it yet, no, but I know
about it, mate.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
It's fucking I really really enjoyed it. His his Donald
Trump was fantastically It was. It was so fucking good.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
I would think that would be very hard to do.

Speaker 1 (38:30):
You know, me too, me too, but it was. It
was all but spot on wow. And I enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
Is you know about Trump as he started to get
into the business world basically, and you know the chap
that kind of taught him everything he knows about business.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
It was. It was really interesting, a really a really
good watch. And I've never shot Sebastians and you shot
him a bunch, right, was Is he the guy that
did Pam and Tommy?

Speaker 3 (38:57):
He did? Yeah, And I only shot him a couple
of times doing that because I kept, you know, I
kept getting screwed on that chet. But I did shoot
him a couple of times. Yeah, I don't think he
ever saw me or anything like that. Yeah, I did
hear another photographer I talked to the other day said he, uh,
he goes to his gym all the time. Okay, and

(39:19):
so he says he's a cool guy, and he says
he's not. You know, he's not a dick. So there
you go.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Yeah, I do recommend. I recommend The Apprentice over Anora.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
I totally forgot about The Apprentice. Yeah, I got to
check that out.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
I'd never I never even knew it was a thing.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Well, I remember seeing shots of him, because that's what
I that's what I pay attention to, is like the
shot of the people looking like the people, and I
remember him looking like him, and I remember, and I
think Sebastian stan Is probably he's probably one of the
guys that's more left leaning rather than right leaning. With
the Trump old situation. Yea, but you know, I mean,
how how was that was?

Speaker 1 (39:59):
It?

Speaker 3 (39:59):
Was? It really? Did it paint Trump in a in
a bad light? Did it talk? Did it? You know?

Speaker 1 (40:06):
I mean I think it just painted him as Trump?
It was right, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (40:12):
Yeah, so, yeah, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yeah, it was good, truth is true. You know, I
enjoyed it. And then the last thing that I've watched,
I don't even know when this came out or how
long it's been out, was the second Denner Feeds movie
with Oh Jackson Junior and Gerard Butler.

Speaker 3 (40:30):
Okay, yeah, to Pantera.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
I mean I enjoyed the first one, you know, kind
of action heist movie. They're always fun, and I enjoyed
the second one. I watched over four flights because I
kept falling asleep.

Speaker 3 (40:44):
But that's not a testament.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Oh, it's just how fucking tired I am all the
time on these fucking jobs.

Speaker 3 (40:49):
Well explain that to Gerard.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
D Yeah, but no, I enjoyed it again, really really
enjoyed it. You know, a nice little twist at the
end as well.

Speaker 3 (40:58):
Yeah, it's cool. The one thing I do have to
say about that movie is, you know, the first one
was very raw. You know, it looked like it was
you know, it was low budget, and you know, they
really had to sell it by the action and stuff
like that they did. And then the second one there
was a lot of cg in there that I that
I didn't enjoy you.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
Know, because I didn't even notice it.

Speaker 3 (41:20):
You didn't notice it, Okay, well I did, but.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
I was watching it on my phone as well.

Speaker 3 (41:25):
Yeah, and it didn't take much away from it though,
because I did enjoy both of them. I did enjoy
the second one. I mean, I love a fucking good
diamond heist.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
Yeah, me too.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
Yeah. So yeah, it was really cool and you know
GB man, you know, can't go wrong with that guy.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Love a bit of GB.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
Oh. Sorry. The one critique I would say in that
one was what was the what's the other guy's name? Again?

Speaker 1 (41:48):
Sorry? Jackson Jr?

Speaker 3 (41:49):
O K Jackson Jr. It looked like he gained thirty
pounds in the second one.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
And when they're crawling across that fucking pipe across the
room roof, you know, I'm like, you're not, it's not.
That's not right, it's not that does not that does
not work out for me. And and actually most of
the time when they were in that situation, you know,
I was like, man, he's way overweight for this fucking party.

(42:17):
But he's good though. He's a great actor.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
You got any good GB stories we can go back into.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
I mean the GB stories from from old when I
spotted GB sitting in his car in his Range Rover
in Santa Monica and then followed him all the way
over to Grassiest Madre in Beverly Hills and then I
put that video up for you know, on on the Instagram,

(42:45):
and everybody just went nuts for it. I mean, I
think it was all the women that just went nuts
for it, because it made me realize GB has a
huge female audience that love the guy. You're paused right
now and you're pulling your eye down and it's the
funniest thing, dude. But No, the one GB story that

(43:07):
I've told a couple of times, which is the funniest
thing ever, was was the one day I saw him
crossing the street in Santa Monica one time and then
I kind of just hung out to see what he
went to go do. And what he went to go
do was meet up with some woman and she was
a napping coach, oh I remember, and she helped him

(43:30):
take a nap where basically, and I didn't know she
was a napping coach at the time because I didn't
know they existed, you know, But then she sat there
and with basically his head and her lap, and I
have pictures of this, and the pictures are up on
the Instagram, I think. And he's basically just laying there

(43:50):
and his head isn't in her lap, but it's right there,
and she's just basically like rubbing his head and stuff
like that. And I mean, how many women out there
if Brad Pitt came to you and said, hey, can
you help me take a nap? Can you rub my head?
Can you do it? How many women would just say okay, fine?
You know? And what did this woman do to get

(44:12):
to this point in her life where she could be
a nap coach? Just freaking celebrity.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
Dudes, you know, that's so good.

Speaker 3 (44:19):
But that was That's pretty much the funniest thing. I Mean,
there are many GB stories in Malibu and stuff like that,
but but Gerard Butler is just He's a character.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
I love the guy absolutely.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
Yeah, you watch anything else?

Speaker 1 (44:33):
We're watching the sixth and final season of The Handmaid's
Tale at the moment.

Speaker 3 (44:38):
Okay, we talked about Moblin, right, yes, yeah? Are you
still watching that?

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Never started it? Okay, I'm about to start that. Other
Adam is Adam Brodie, the chap In you know, Penn
Badgeley you Yeah, I'm going to start that from the beginning.
I've never seen it, but my wife it is good.
And the final season's just come out of that as well. Okay,
I don't watch too much TV.

Speaker 3 (45:06):
Yeah, no, it's I mean, I get it. You're a
busy guy. Yeah, Mobland, that's definitely up your Yeah, your
wheelhouse right there, for sure. I think you would enjoy
that simply because you know, my wife has to watch
it with subtitles on. Yeah, I don't because I've dealt
with you guys my entire life. Oh that's funny, but

(45:27):
it's great. Nineteen twenty three, nineteen twenty three, Yes, that
it's the prequel Yellowstone movie show.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
Oh okay, I never really got into Yellowstone. I tried
really hard.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
Okay, so we so Yellowstone. It's it's a thing whatever,
you know. But if you honestly, there's so many of
them now that you can watch them in a chronological
order where you can start with nineteen twenty three or
Win eighteen, something they did even before that, and you
could actually watch in a chronological order where it would
make sense instead of watching it the Kevin Costner ons

(46:05):
right off the bat. But what's crazy about these shows?
Is I was watching nineteen twenty three at the same
time I was watching Mobland, And you haven't seen both
of these, so I don't want to ruin it for you.
But Helen Mirren is the main character in both of
these shows, right, Oh no, shit, I love her and
in right, well, so do I, so did I. In

(46:28):
nineteen twenty three, she plays you know, an Irish basically
an Irish woman who's you know, married to you know,
Harrison Ford, who comes over and they try and settle
in Montana, right, and she's like basically the strongest woman
in the world, can handle the Montana winners, just you know,

(46:50):
takes on wolves and fucking all sorts of shit and
she's just a badass. And I'm watching also watching Mobland,
which Helen Mirren plays not an Irish but an English
woman who's basically the backbone of the fucking mob and
the most deceiving, hardcore mastermind behind the whole mob, controlling

(47:15):
fucking Pierce Brosnan family. And she's just this complete psycho,
but a genius, a genius fucking psycho. So we were
bouncing back between these two and like, honestly, we watched
one episode Helen Mirren would be fucking sniffing coke and
giving coke to her fucking grandson basically, oh god, and

(47:36):
then it would go to fucking nineteen twenty three where
she's a badass, fucking Western woman who would just fucking
take it.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
It was.

Speaker 3 (47:44):
It was kind of a mind fuck of Helen Mirren
and your impression of her, you know what I mean,
that's funny. Yeah, No, so I actually recommend doing that, Okay,
bouncing back and forth between the two Helen Mirren shows.

Speaker 1 (47:57):
Yeah, it was something for me to check out.

Speaker 3 (48:00):
Yeah, I mean, if there's anything Diva Longoria, that would
be it for sure. Anyway, is there anything else you
want to bring up in this podcast, because otherwise we
will wrap this one up because I think we bored everybody,
which as we.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
I got nothing else right now unfortunately. All right, I'm
working a good one in the next week or so.
But you know, if it turns out, it'll be some
some good stories.

Speaker 2 (48:27):
I'm looking forward to that. I'm hoping to get sent
home tomorrow for this one so I can make my
make my daughter's birthday party on Saturday. Oh you gotta
make that, I know, otherwise I'm gonna be in big trouble.

Speaker 3 (48:38):
How is she going to be? Was that eight?

Speaker 1 (48:40):
Six?

Speaker 3 (48:41):
Oh no, that's good. Six, it's great.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
Eight. Love that. I'm excited. But yeah, nothing else happening, mate,
nothing else. I got nothing else to talk about at
the moment. So I think to everybody a favor, and
well we'll wrap this one up.

Speaker 3 (48:57):
Yeah, let's shut it up. Okay, Well, if we've offended
anybody on this episode, we do apologize for myself and
for Jedi on the Mothership. Take care and be well
bye bye. Well, you need to go back to writing.
