How did Scatman Crothers influence the hosts' experiences?

David Spade 0:38
Wait, I got to get.
Dana Carvey 0:39
Well, she can take the Mickey Rooney conversation with me and Nathan Lane. She can do anything.
David Spade 0:44
God dang. That was pure filth.
Dana Carvey 0:47
Well, just we're just reporters. We're not.
David Spade 0:49
We're not endorsing the news. And the news is spicy.
Dana Carvey 0:54
Well, it's an interesting idea. This went through my mind. When people recall conversations you had with them decades ago and quote you, and you don't remember saying that at all.

What is the significance of Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire?

Dana Carvey 1:10
Yeah. So, Nathan, I was driving Nathan Lane around L.A. apparently, and I just turned to him and said, I hate plays.
Olivia Maher 1:21
Mm-hmm.
Dana Carvey 1:21
I remember that. That was funny. I don't remember saying that, but I remember saying I wasn't really into theater, but I was a kid who was watching Lost in Space. I wasn't a theater guy.
David Spade 1:34
You were a little stand-up comic twerp from the Bay Area. That's not in your vernacular.

What are the latest updates in sports news?

David Spade 1:39
You're not being... If you live in New York and your parents take you to Broadway every weekend, you know, it's a different vibe.
Dana Carvey 1:45
I'd never seen a play except maybe later in high school. They did Oklahoma. You know, and then I would go watch Planet of the Apes in a movie theater and go, what do I like better?
David Spade 1:59
Apes or Oklahoma?
Dana Carvey 2:02
But then later on, I go, I get it. Don't worry.
David Spade 2:05
No, but I will tell you this. We have Nathan Lane on the show coming up, and that's what we're talking about.

How do Dana and David share their personal anecdotes?

David Spade 2:10
We interviewed him, and he was really fun. I liked him.
Dana Carvey 2:12
Super funny.
David Spade 2:13
I don't know much about him. He tells some tight stories and got some laughs.
Dana Carvey 2:19
That was sort of, you know, it was sweet because we just hadn't really... I ran into him only once in like the early 90s, but then it was going way back. The first job on TV we ever had, and then... The story of that, I felt like I was talking to the same guy. It was like a time machine.
David Spade 2:40
You guys remembered so much from fricking how many years ago doing it.

What humorous stories do they share about their past performances?

David Spade 2:44
You're like, and then the third day of shooting, we all said this in the break room. I'm like, oh my God.
Dana Carvey 2:49
Well, I'll say this literally. Mickey Rooney, who I became very fond of, you know, at first I was like, whoa, who's this guy? But I was the number one star in the world. You hear me? Bang. The world. Oh, man, I did the squeak really good that time.
David Spade 3:06
Oh, that was a perfect one.

What insights do they provide on the entertainment industry?

Dana Carvey 3:07
So we never got over it. You know, SNL is kind of an experiential and this happened and this happened. But this sitcom should be a Broadway show called One of the Boys.
David Spade 3:18
Yeah. It won't be, but it should be.
Dana Carvey 3:21
Hey, don't jinx it. Chris Rock can play Scatman Carruthers. Was he in it? Scatman. We didn't even get into the Scatman stories.

What are the highlights from the Buzzing Around segment?

Dana Carvey 3:31
I never even heard that part of it. I became really good friends with Scatman. I always see you guys at the Grove walking around. Well, what I did was, you know, he was constantly smoking weed in the bathroom or whatever. Is that you? You know, just so. And then my brother came out and we I barely ever smoked marijuana in my life. But he said, I'll get you some special. And then he's talking to us. Scatman's talking to us like this. And he rolls a joint that's closed on both ends, perfectly folded in. but it was the worst weed ever. It did nothing. So then I talked to my brother, Scott. So we got a lid. They call it a lid, a big thing of Columbia. And I guess I took it on the airplane and, And I brought it to New York and I gave it to Scatman.
Dana Carvey 4:24
And then the next day in the elevator, he said, quote, because he was from the 30s where it was a listen. He goes, the music was good. May I get a pound?
David Spade 4:35
A pound? He knows you're a dealer.
Dana Carvey 4:37
He wanted a pound.
David Spade 4:38
That was when planes didn't hassle you for bringing weed on and shit.
Dana Carvey 4:42
I guess not. But then after the show ended, my brother Scott and I drove down the coast, went to Van Nuys where Scatman lived.
