All right. You went, you don't want to be slotted into something.
For some reason, for some reason you had me on. That was a bad choice.
I was born, I was bred at Warner Brothers Studios in a little embryo fluid. It was just like that? Yeah, no, man, you know, probably Brett Goldstein, you know. A kid in your building or something from school? No, he was a kid on the Upper West Side and my older sister was friends with his older sister, Brenna. And just, I think they still live there. Greg and Bess, those are his parents.
And Brett, you know, that was my whole friend group. Then they all, my whole friend group went to this school called Computer School. And then I went to a school called Booker T. Washington. So I lost my, I lost my friend group there. But. And you have a roommate now? No. You don't? Thank God, man. That's like more than that. Sorry. No, I mean, but fucking that's more than anything.
That's what Jezelnik says on Netflix. He says, you really made it when you don't have a roommate anymore. Oh, yeah.
In life.
Do you have a roommate?
How do you go – 2020 wife.
2020 wife. How do you go about that? I think getting out there and meeting people. Do you have friends that you trust, that you would trust like to set you up?
How so? Give me an example. Just like. No names, but.
Okay, all right, all right, all right, all right, enough said, enough said. Just people that there was no... How do you do this format? Like, you're never nervous that people are going to watch that you're talking about?
Right, and you send, you'll send scary people after people, you know. Oh, well, I mean, we'll... You'll send guys in suits outside people's houses, make sure they don't...
Right, right, right, right.
Yeah, man. Yes and no, you know, because I've become such a fan of his that it's not like I feel like I'm a blemish on the legacy, but I... No, not at all.
I'm just saying that even if I have a healthy amount of self-respect, it's never going to come close to who he is. So I like the idea that I could be a bridge. But I had a buddy that said the Johnny Cash movie, Joaquin Phoenix, who is the same director who walked the line, he said, you know, I actually like Joaquin's versions of Johnny Cash's songs better than Johnny Cash's songs.
But I never wanted that. Sincerely, I don't want that to happen here. And I wanted to protect against it because Bob's got this raw voice. He's got this iron voice. And I never wanted these songs to be more gentle than his songs. And I had to fight against that because the recordings we made, a lot of them were super... It's hard, man. He was playing on a beat-up guitar with shitty recorders.
He had a bronchitis in his early 20s. His voice was all fucked up. And I didn't want it to be watered down. Because he very purposefully was... He liked Jack Kerouac and Moriarty. A lot of the books I read said he didn't have great hygiene or stuff like that, so I didn't want the movie to be watered down all of a sudden.
Yeah, not do this Hollywood version, basically. Right. Because these biopics, it's a fine line, man. And I've never done anything like this. I usually play a role. Actually, sort of. Yeah, Wonka you did, kind of. Yeah, Wonka I did, yeah. But that's maybe not real. No, but it's real. Yeah, thank God.
but don't tell the children thank god thank god no you know probably have to get psychiatric help but um but uh no but and there's a certain pressure with that Wonka too people are like very protective of characters they love you know they don't want and there's sort of like a cynicism about Hollywood you know about like why are they keep revisiting um the Wonka thing I felt was justified because it's a new story we weren't doing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory we were doing sort of an origin and uh
By the way, I don't know if you've seen Wonka. Have you? Yeah, which one have I seen? Yeah, I've seen all of them. You watched it while you were in the car spying on the list. You had it playing on the audio.
