Well, we had a lot of laughs with him. And this is a two-parter, so here is part one of Rob Schneider.

Dana Carvey 1:05

This is all, this is great you're in here. These are just really fun because I can get a sense of you, you know, like if something's wrong or you're bored, you're suppressing a yawn. Your eyes darting. That face that says, why did I say yes? Can we start it?

David Spade 1:23

Let's go.

Dana Carvey 1:24

We're already halfway done. Wait, can I use the bathroom?

David Spade 1:27

We're almost done. One last question for Rob.

Dana Carvey 1:29

I gotta go to the bathroom. I'll be back in an hour.

David Spade 1:31

I'll deal with this guy. There's one down here, dude.

Dana Carvey 1:35

So many thoughts are flying through my head.

David Spade 1:36

Go to bathroom 38. It's straight across.

Dana Carvey 1:38

So many thoughts are flying through my head.

David Spade 1:41

You just have to field questions.

Dana Carvey 1:42

It's easier. I'll wait for Dana to come back.

David Spade 1:49

Hurry, Dana.

Dana Carvey 1:50

No, the thing about you, David, was you had – you were unlike me. I would go to life and, like, there was, like, a very Asian thing, very Chinese thing. When I worked, I did a movie with Jean-Claude Van Damme in China. It was a different thing, and this is going to come back to you eventually. But what happened was if there was a – In the Western world, if there is a problem, you look at it and go, okay, well, these are the tools that we need. This is how long it's going to take, and these are the amount of people we're going to get. Now, in China, it was the exact opposite. They'd run to a place with the people that they had, figured out what the problem was there, and used the tools that they could.

Dana Carvey 2:34

So it was, in other words, it was like a lot of things blowing up on set, you know, and like – You know, the generator or whatever getting rained on and blowing up. But you figured out things quicker. Like, for instance, when I first met David at an acting class here in town, you kind of figured out where the good looking girls, who the good looking girls were. And then you also had like, instead of like, you know, when I moved down here, I moved into like a dump. And then like you buy like the one piece of furniture. And then I went to your house and you had a scam worked out way ahead of time, which is like you moved in with a really good looking older woman. You just rented a room in her house and the place was tricked out already.

Dana Carvey 3:17

Oh, right. She had a beautiful couch. She had like, I mean, first of all, a couch was like a big deal to me. And then she had stuff on the walls. She had nothing on the walls. She had a refrigerator. And you just worked out this delicate situation with her. And I went like, holy shit, I would have never figured that out. It was, I was looking at the paper. That's our David.

David Spade 3:34

I was looking at the paper for places to live. And on my own, I couldn't click and get one. And it was too expensive. And then hers was $400. but she already had a two bedroom. So I just went and met random people. And then it was in Toluca Lake and it had a room. She had the big room and she had the whole place beautifully done. I would just walk in, skim through the kitchen. You could keep stuff in the fridge. She was very nice. And I just go in my room. So that's all I needed. I had a room with a bed and then a little desk, and then a TV in the corner so I could write, pick up the phone, hear your messages, and then sleep. So that's all I needed.

Dana Carvey 4:10

But she was also a very attractive older woman.
