Timothée Chalamet

And I'm from New York, so Garbage Man, he totally recontextualized that for me.

Yeah, because you think they're taking their time. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And I realize how tough that job is. I mean, he was like throwing dogs in the back of the... I mean, that story is... Do you remember that?

In the back of the, back of the, whatever.

No, hearing it on accident and loving it. And I'm so happy you saw this movie. And this is like, you know, I hope this isn't like a shameless self-plug.

I still don't know, man. Biopic sounds like a medical procedure. Yeah. You know, that sounds like someone, you know, is inspecting your lungs to see if you played the role the right way. I like biopic. Biopic sounds fancier.

This is a four or five year period in the early Bob Dylan's life. And I'm sure a lot of people listening to your program are already fans of Bob Dylan's, but I'm sure a lot aren't because to my generation, you know, Yeah, people, some people don't know. So I don't know. And he's really one of the most fantastic American artists of all time and has influenced our culture in so many deep ways.

And it's just, you know, I grew up on, on Kid Cudi and hip hop and that was really my, you know, my, my, my passion. And then somewhere in my twenties, because this movie I was working on, I became obsessed with this, this man, Bob Dylan, who's absolutely, I could just speak about him endlessly. And, you know,

I would love if people saw this movie and even if they got a passing interest, discover the world of Bob Dylan. I feel like we get to be a bridge or a gateway to this guy. And I hope this isn't one of your episodes where you got like someone, you know, like one of the ones people skip because it's like a person plugging something, you know what I'm saying? Like a...

I don't want to use that word celebrity, but like, you know, because my favorite episodes of yours are... Oh, like a fancy, like a fancier person, hypothetically fancier? No, I don't mean it like that, but just like, I like, like I said, I like the ones that are off the cuff.

Yeah, I never really used that word, but... No, that's okay.

Look, man, I think... I feel like this part of the job is that, though, because when I'm working, I'm really very much in it, you know what I mean? And then here, anyway.

Well, if you want to get your movie out, there's only a limit of how... pretentious in some way, you know, whatever, you know, I want, I want this, especially this movie. I believe in this movie and I believe in this man. He's a tremendous artist. So I want to, I want to, you know, get it out there. Yeah.

Yeah. I know you struggle with that a little bit. Yeah.

And I appreciate you bringing up Beautiful Boy, and I feel like you're doing the exact same thing, not to just blow smoke up each other's ass, but I feel like when you... Oh, we're a couple of naughty Native Americans right here. Come on, come on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. If you're listening to this and not watching this, we're fully at the bottom half of our bodies.

We're out of your booth, and it's getting spicy out here.

Take that out. No, no, no. Because I know you speak on it, too, and you probably empower people that otherwise would be... Doing some naughty stuff.

Tell me about the first time. That was super gradual. Can't do it with people that are fans. Because people that are fans of Bob Dylan will go, they'll all tell you you got it wrong. That's the trouble with playing someone so famous and beloved. Everyone's got an opinion about him.

So you got to put the blinders on and just kind of do it around people that you know. Look, man, I'm usually not that prick actor who's obliging his friends or whatever to listen to the character he's working on. But this is the one time I did that.

Because, yeah, you don't want to get out there and do a bad job of it. Exactly, man. This would have been blasphemous. I would have gotten... killed. I mean, I could still get killed. Yeah. But now it seems like, you know, getting a little bit of love, you know what I'm saying?

Yes. Very gradually. Um, I, I, I had to, there's a great dialect coach named Tim Monick. You know, you can work with people that are like experts in this field and they'll tell you how to go about it. He, this man, Tim Monick invented dialect coaching. He came up with it. Tim Monick. Let's bring him up. M-O-N-I-C-H. He's worked with Leonardo DiCaprio. He's worked with everyone, you know.
