We'd love to hear a Bradley story, if it's positive. One of the greatest moments for me on the show, because you asked about people I interviewed. I was interviewing Bradley, and at the time, Bradley had just finished a run on Broadway.
Brilliant, brilliant job. Absolutely brilliant. And I am a fan of The Elephant Man. And Bradley's so serious about The Elephant Man. He has a serious Elephant Man hang-up. He goes, you know, I just want you to know I don't joke about the Elephant Man. I said, I'm not going to joke, but I would like to do the Elephant Man for you. And I would love if you would come back as your Elephant Man.
And Bradley looked at me and I said, he's either going to walk out and he goes, And we had a moment where we were both the Elephant Man immersed in our character. And it was one of the single biggest highlights. Radio magic.
I got to act with Bradley Cooper. Very few people, you know. This guy's one of our best actors. He is. Rarified. Without a doubt. One of the greatest filmmakers we've got. Maestro is incredible. That's right. And when he saw... He was so inspired. Tell him, Bradley, how good I was. He loved it. Never saw such acting. I've had no training, by the way, as an actor. What? That's right. That's right.
Yeah, because I was going to say, you want to know something about private parts? Here's the funny thing. What a movie, by the way. Thank you.
But I've got to tell you a funny story about it because this leads into it. It's insane. So, you know... Closer to the mic, please. So, I wrote the book. I wrote the book, and I had no clue when they said they wanted to make a movie out of it. How am I going to make a movie out of this thing? Betty Thomas? Before Betty, I was involved in writing some of the scripts.
We had other writers and this and that. There were 25 full drafts of this thing, and each one was worse than the next. And my agent at the time, who just passed away, Don Buckle, but he said to me, these scripts are so bad, you'll be laughed at. So the movie studio said, listen, Reicher Entertainment put up the money, and Paramount was the distributor. And so they said, listen, this is crazy.
The money that we're spending on these writers and you're not accepting any of these scripts, we're going to hire Jeff Goldblum to play you since you won't do that. No way. Is that true? Great Jeff Goldblum, by the way. I looked him in the eye and I said, you know what? I would pay to see that. I would love to see Jeff Goldblum as Howard Stern. I think it would be terrific. But anyway.
No, but they were so frustrated with me because I had written into the contract. And again, this was my agent's brilliance. They couldn't make the movie unless I had full script approval. And I wrote half the scripts and they sucked.
Speaking of that. And then we got to go. Oh, you got to go? No, after that. No, you got to go.
You people are really tough about that. I have a hard out. Yeah. No, I do? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm very busy. I have to go home and paint and play the guitar. I'm busy. No, I sit at home and stare at the wall, and Beth looks at me. She's not allowed to leave the house.
Oh, yeah. I've got the advance copy of next week's Bachelorette.
I cannot wait. Do you watch Traitors? Do you watch Traitors? No. I'm Bachelor Nation all the way. Anybody else with me? Look, Jimmy Fallon's with me. Bradley? Sure. Well, these people have a life.
Great rehearsal. What are you recording? Tell me. This is a rehearsal. Is the show actually over? Do I leave and then you keep talking? You're going to leave and we're going to do a little wrap up. We're going to talk about you a little bit. A wrap up?
We're going to talk about how great you are once you leave. Maybe I should listen in. I'll sit here. I won't stay at work. Go ahead. Let me hear what you guys do. And I'll tell you what I'll do. Every once in a while, I'll interrupt and I'll just go, that's not good radio. Or that's really good radio.
I was a judge on America's Got Talent.
Fantastic. By the way, the guy who did the warm-up today, they had a warm-up. O's. Yeah, O's. I wanted him to win the entire season. He did not win that season. He should have. He's fabulous.
O's Perlman. You know what you can... A name built for show business.
Can I say something about you guys?
This is going to hurt.
