peek behind the curtain, he was going to be a Monday.
Sure.
Because obviously he would be a Monday. But then it got really interesting. We got into a lot of filmmaking stuff and it was so cool that it was like, no, you know what?
You were editing.
Yep.
And you text me, what if we moved Seth to Thursday? And I said, no, you have bad ideas.
Fuck you.
You're a piece of shit.
I hate you.
Don't ever think again.
Click.
And then I forgot about it. And then you did it anyway.
I just did it.
And now we're here.
Yeah.
Seth Rogen is an actor. He's a comedian. He is a filmmaker. He is a martial arts star. Yeah. Remember when he was a kid in Canada, he was all about that karate. Superbad, This Is The End, Knocked Up, Neighbors, Pineapple Express, and a new series that I, it'll be obvious in the episode. Truly, I love this show.
I'm still dying to see it.
Oh, it's so impressive. It's so funny and impressive. And the plot is like a freight train. It's called The Studio and it's on Apple TV, March 26th. So please, I couldn't recommend it enough.
I lump him in with Chelsea Handler. of people in this industry who are extremely generous. They say yes all the time if you ask a favor. I don't think people really know that about him, but he is.
I think he's just a lover of it. You know, like there's haters.
Yeah.
There's jealous people. He's a lover.
Yeah, he's a nice guy.
He loves projects. He pops up in things. He just loves the whole world.
We like Seth.
Yeah. I like when the good guys win.
Yeah, me too. Yeah.
Please enjoy Seth Rogen. Something very specific happened.
Oh, what happened? I already informed him about the robbery. It's related. Okay.
Was there another robbery?
It's been a second robbery.
A follow-up robbery.
They missed some shit. They forgot a few things. You know what's weird? That is the only thing that bothers me. I can accept that the stuff got stolen. It's the notion like, well, are they going to come back?
Yeah.
It's very easy. They had a good time. Yeah. Things went well. That's what's driving me a little bonkers.
And they know we're going to obviously replace the cameras. We have to.
It's just a never-ending camera replenishment. They open a camera shop down the corner, sells the same 12 cameras. I'd be delighted to buy them off.
Just broker a deal with them.
Seriously.
Like the mafia, I'm willing to pay them $500 a month to just stay away. Pay them camera protection. But when I have anxiety, I cut my hair compulsively.
And I was like, oh, I have a lot of time.
I'm going to really get in front of the mirror, and then I'm going to start trimming my hair. And I got lost in it. And then I thought, I should just glance at them. I'm sure I got 10 minutes left. And I was like, what?
Four minutes after.
I was in a state of flow, I guess.
You need a rule. Maybe no cutting before an interview.
I know. I just, I thought it was going to be three snips as I always do. You just couldn't stop. It was too good. What's your thing that you'll most lose sense of time doing? Is it the pottery? I would say I'm annoyingly conscious of time all the time.
Sometimes when I'm filming, I kind of lose track of time, but I also usually have my eye on the clock because there's an amount of time we have to do shit. But pottery sometimes, watching reality TV, sometimes I'll watch enough of that that I just kind of zone out.
Here's another thing I fucked up. I was like, I have so much time. I'll cut my hair. I'm also going to bring a fan down and I'm going to bring an ashtray for our guests. Oh, it's okay. Are you sure? Yes. Okay, we love that you smoked weed.
Yeah, that was fun for us.
That was fun for us, but it did lead us astray.
