today from supernatural to stabbing the hots for me columns i think cult is probably a fair term to apply to the supernatural fandom i think that anybody in the position of being adored by people whom they don't know has to be a little bit strange yeah you have to find that strange is it true that message got angry you nasa did post an official tweet asking us to stop father it was the astronauts on the international space station i don't know why they made such a big deal out of it i mean what are they doing up there that's so important plus one threesomes i have yeah yeah you and her and and other other individuals it's all next on larry king now.
11:01 pm
welcome to larry king now be sure collins act just scavenger hunt host social media dolly he plays the recently fallen angel test d.l. on the hit series supernatural the ninth season premier october eighth on the c.w. the show airs tuesdays at nine eastern eight central mutual forward over the show or anything out of we split up we had more social media questions when we send out on our website that you were on then any guess we've had in two years explain this that is truly astonishing and i wish i could explain it because. that's astonishing really really i'm not giving you. one well i mean you're not not i cannot to cast aspersions here but i mean it seems like some of the people you've had on your show are not really household names i mean who is this oprah going to
11:02 pm
end up getting and is another thing that's really amazing i think it can be attributed to the fact. the fans of supernatural are just incredibly avid devoted. and and eager individuals who it seems like must also be burdened by more than their fair share of questions if they're submitting that many but it's on c.w. it's not c.b.s. and n.b.c. is a huge cult yeah i think cult is probably a fair term to apply to the supernatural fandom it is definitely a show that is below most people's radar like you said it's on a network that doesn't have the highest ratings out there and it's been on a long time and it's not something that is the show's not a hollywood darling but the fan base for the show is incredibly incredibly devoted as abuser. now you say that you have an irreverent megalo maniacal persona online.
11:03 pm
on monday are you an irreverent mogul maniacal person offline that's an excellent question i. it's funny because i think that i started i started you know my online experimenting a couple of years ago twittering at the behest of the c.w. and i was kind of trying to satirize the self-important twitter celebrity glowingly about them so who talk only about the world i was a grocery store exactly. and and then over time i think that snowballed to i think i have become a bit of a self-important celebrity in this so in the interim so you see it satirizes self and you became what you said allegedly that may be true i don't know. let's talk about the show how did you get the part parts you played parts yeah well my character has gone through many different incarnations of the show but i got odd ones i was god it was one point which is kind of so kind of big shoes to fill but
11:04 pm
it was a lot of fun it's been a lot of fun to work on a show because the character changes so much over time and is your first part by for. first part was an angel and i just auditioned like anyone would for a getaway. and it was supposed to be a three episode arc and that was six years ago and the character was just embraced by by the show and the fans and what is sometimes the show i think the show really works because it's at its core a story about two brothers and their personal family dynamic but it also grapples with these incredibly epic mythic story lines that joseph campbell would be proud of you know literally grappling with stories about heaven and hell and and the ultimate conflicts of you know good and evil and and is that in the. look. yes it's it's i would say it's agnostic or at the very least very theistic lee
11:05 pm
complicated i mean we have had we have had a couple of characters play the role of god as the religious community objected. the exposure that i've had to religious people who i mean religious people people who are self-proclaimed religious people who have approached me about the show have all been supportive of it that doesn't mean that there's not factions out there who think that it's satan's work but i understand you get interesting people send you paintings of you came to you yeah. how's it make you feel i mean once every three years so minocin me something a painting a big glasses in the suspenders and all the years i've been doing that i've actually done a few of you say how do you feel when you get these it always feels a little like who is this it feels a little surreal to be honest with you i mean. you know i think that anybody in the
11:06 pm
position of being adored by people whom they don't know has to be a little bit straight yeah you have to find that strange to get was the strangest family are with us and you pick one up. there's a lot of competition. you know i think. i think and needlepoint pillow that i got with a really beautiful photo realistic image of my face on it was pretty strange because i'm sort of imagining laying my head on on that pillow and the nightmares that that would induce sleeping with you so yes exactly are you married i am children yes how do they react to all of this for you well my children are one and three so i don't really have any idea what's going on. and my wife thinks it's very strange and i think that she is very good at a grounding me in just how flawed and in other words take out they go up yeah
11:07 pm
exactly and you started a scavenger hunt world breaking records. we're going to show some clips of what is this. i i went to the university of chicago as an undergrad and there was a very kind of dark and depressing school at the time that i was there very academic view of the midwest so yes we spent a lot of time in the basement of the of the library but there was this one bright spot in the calendar year which was the scavenger hunt at the university of chicago that lasted for three days and people would go drive into their you know in their cars and drive up to wisconsin to steal sheep and try to get tow trucks to tow other tow trucks and looking for things looking for items for the scavenger hunt you know whether it's a hooters waitress or a make fighter jet or whatever it is and what do you do and we this this was such a it was such a great experience for me that i've always wanted to do it again and when i started
11:08 pm
getting on the show and realized that i had some fans who strangely would kind of do things that i said i kind of tried it out and it's totally snowballed and it's become this week i mean now we've got ten and you do the show through the internet you do it through you know i mean website through and through a website that i said i would call it it's called gish with witches and the more greatest international scavenger hunt the world has ever seen. yes there you will admit part of you is become a little a little weird if you have a strong into this character we have some pictures of the different tests people at you as a pastry yes this was an item from this year dress yourself up as a truly delicious looking dessert so this is someone's child i'm assuming what's next oh yeah we had a lot of ducks in movie theaters because that was an item from this year's scavenger hunt. for abduction of a movie. given. raises
11:09 pm
questions doesn't it. what is that this is joe's of the stage one of the new jersey wearing a sock monkey hat it's nice i think to find ways to get public servants to humiliate themselves so he's a democrat yes there you go interesting. the flash in the hadrian particle of solar this i was this item it was you have to have someone dressed as the flash in a particle accelerator it didn't have to be the large helder and particle accelerator could be any which there are a small handful of but there were so many people bombarding these particle accelerators with requests to do scores this idea you have the sole score the highest scoring team is the team there dreams of do this right yes yes i was growing dream and this is quarter from your website a trip to vancouver or try to see plane fly do
11:10 pm
a majestic drive in with me chicagoans for fish to see ons c s fancy in three months and a viking surprise is that all true yes well i'm going to make good on the promise i don't know what the vote the sands is or the vikings a prize or why i included a viking surprise on the west coast of north america because bike and never set foot there as far as i know but yeah it was last year we brought the winning team to a castle in scotland and it was actually quite extraordinary and you put up the money for this yeah yeah is it true that massa got angry view nasa did post an official tweet asking us to stop bothering us the astronauts on the international space station because one of the items involved their participation. which was kind of because the as you know support is a great deal and they participated no they didn't and nasa said that they weren't allowed to so it was a big deal there were two they didn't but does where it's actually i don't know one
11:11 pm
like you even i don't know why they made such a big deal out of it i mean what are they doing up there that's so important. once you have me do so all right that's a fantastic you are on when we come back we'll talk threesome seriously plus me sure we'll take some of your thousands of questions stay with us. did you know the price is the only industry specifically mention in the constitution and. that's because a free and open press is critical to our democracy correct albus. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the quote for takeover of our government and our. the hydrogen lying handful of transnational corporations that will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once built on i'm tom
11:12 pm
martin and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world if we go beyond identifying the problem trucks rational debate and a real discussion critical issues facing and not define them or go ready to join the movement then welcome to the. us i was a new alert animation scripts scare me a little but. there is breaking news tonight and they are continuing to follow the breaking news many. alexander's family cry tears of the wife and a great big other that there had to be either read or get a court of law found alive there's a story made for
11:13 pm
a movie is playing out in real life. i've got a quote for you. it's pretty tough. if they were it's a story. let's get this guy like you would smear that guy stead of working for the people both issues the mainstream media are working for each other bridegrooms vision. problems. they did rather well. i guess this means you collins and me as is the average on how do people get in touch to find out about the scope. if you want to participate in a really fun weeklong scavenger hunt go to gift with dot com which is g.i. s h w h e s dot com this was dot com now i understand you're not
11:14 pm
a typical actor a reluctant celebrity you do a lot like celebrity fandom you understand your wife has written a book the book is titled. the threesome handbook a practical guide to sleeping with three what i love it is she talking about what i think she's talking yes she is talking exactly about one threesomes i have you and her and and other other individuals sort of so you have a life where your wife is ok with another woman coming to the house is she intermittently she has been at times and at other times she has not been so where is the current situation current situation is change the diapers. when the children came back changed as well is that it's really hard to squeeze in to the schedule at the moment was it her idea or your a bit the threesome. while it was her idea to write the book and i'm not sure what the genesis of the manasseh twat in the beginning was but i don't remember who so
11:15 pm
whose idea was now well we've been together we've been together since i was sixteen years old so. that's how many years yeah that's twenty two years you're thirty eight years old i am thirty eight and so you've had many experiences with your wife so yes one of the stages was this yes what is the true scholl the scene try to take credit for the book he did which i thought was. really kind of gross gross plagiarism you disk she describes how to do with reason i guess. can you give me one of these you see detail i can tell you it was actually really funny my wife is kind of a nerd she has a ph d. in her nerd yeah she has ph d. in history and she has this tendency to want to take experiences in life and then and follow them through as far as she can possibly go and in this case you wanted to not only have
11:16 pm
a threesome but to write the book on threesomes so. the children change things right they do try don't know if you do have kids i have his own small they do change things yeah ok we have some social media questions for you and we have thousands will get we've got we're going to do a separate segment but these are some for this at a million want to know if there's been any good behind the scenes to the scenes pranks so far this season. i don't think there's been any good behind the scenes pranks so far this season on our show the biggest problem i would say that we're confronted with is that we waste a lot of takes laughing so there will often be for instance a broom stick in my crotch right below frame that one of the other actors is sort of fondling me with and that it is really a difficult environment to work in and i'm sure warner brothers cringes at the overtime that we rack up because i just i can't stop laughing so it's there's
11:17 pm
nothing good about it it's just sort of this is a serious yes this is not gone with the wind this is not going all the way and never do. go see use asks what's your stance on getting congress to participate in gear suis as a team building exercise that's a great idea if if if the if the republicans democrats could cross the aisle and participate in a scavenger hunt. i think that they well they certainly can get any less done than they're getting now correct that shine on sean asked knowing what you know no what would you tell your younger self you know i deal with the question means. i think i might tell myself to be to be patient. persistent gave up engine bug tweets words you're a former white house intern under clinton yes did you leave the political scene
11:18 pm
early were you interested involved and i was i for some reason grew up thinking that i was going to go into politics i think that i thought that was the best way to effect change in the world and then i got an internship at the white house and i was working at national public radio. and i was really. disappointed by the experience and i decided to get out of that and go somewhere where people had integrity. and hollywood. did you know the other famous and turned miss lewinsky yes no she was there three months before me so we did not overlap. spin dv b. can you twerk don't lie it says tort work i've heard this term what i don't know what does it mean i don't know oh this is the kind of dance that miley cyrus those . i don't i can't i guess i don't know what is this tim i have noted. it has
11:19 pm
to stand for some it has to at i did new york tweets can get you as we see if he sees any similarities between himself and castiel that's a very interesting probing question i asked the other character that i play on supernatural is an angel who is trying has been for years trying to fit in with humanity and just doesn't quite doesn't quite fit in he's always a misfit and i think i guess there's something there's something about myself i feel like i've always i've always felt like i don't quite fit in so there's a type resonates it's typecasting you know believe in heroes once you know if you have a dream role or a territory you've always wanted to play. yeah i have always wanted to play a spy type character who goes into disguises and uses lots of different accents and . i don't know i don't know why i've wanted to but you go because your film
11:20 pm
famous spy writer thing yeah that sounds. garcia's sixteen as some of the kids the kids are good the killer are they and what i mean my have my eldest child is west he's three years old mace wait yes west and my daughter is mason she's one they're sick pretty much constantly yesterday i was at the playground and west went to the drinking fountain he pressed the button and then rather than just drinking the water he just licked all of the metal around the water fountain dispenser and so i think that this is indicative this is why they're such directors there they're always sick well jane west i don't know. this one's from them girls are cool any new big projects coming up for random acts random random acts is the charity that i founded with the with my twitter followers a few years ago it started as a just
11:21 pm
a little seed and i quickly saw that while they are really incredibly responsive and and so now we have a staff of twenty volunteers and we're eating budget of half a million dollars and we do projects like we just finished building a really amazing community center an orphanage in haiti and we're about to. i think we're going to do something in san juan del sor nicaragua next year and we do things like we just reunited a woman who was slave traded. and brought sort of the states you do random good we try to. we received more twitter questions for me than for any guest ever we got so in fact we decided to vote an entire segment to it that you're a kook the next wants to know if you're ever going to write a book yourselves. i do occasionally fantasize about writing books and then i change my mind. i don't know i like to read books so miss is just reduce as was the
11:22 pm
craziest thing you've ever done. that's a difficult question answer there was i i once my wife and i smuggled ourselves into china buried in the back of a vegetable truck. while because we didn't have visas to get into the country and we really wanted to go but in hindsight i see that that was maybe not that smart we caught yes. would you give by the butt of a machine gun out of the. we. we played innocent we acted like we had fallen asleep in the in the vegetables and and i think that they didn't really care about it they realized that a couple of backpackers like us weren't going to really get over meant showing you know this is. what they tell tweets is there any person concept or philosophy that has inspired me should columns in his show really work.
11:23 pm
that's a good question yeah actually strangely i think there are there is one there's one woman that sticks out of my head when i was six i grew up in a very poor family my mother was on welfare and we were homeless at times and there was a kid in my class his mother gave my mom one hundred dollars so that she had money to bias christmas presents one year. it was a woman that we didn't really know and it was a small gesture for her but it made a huge difference in our family and i and i remember that to this day so it's the idea that you do that really even small acts of kindness can make a profound difference to somebody else that would be an important question does the cast make out with one of the periodic glee in this is be honest. and supernatural we have really long tiresome work days and at times just i would say just to
11:24 pm
comfort ourselves we have to have sex but we do it we try to do it tastefully. to set the onset obviously that heavy bob at once you know what do his wife and family think of his usually fanatical fan base. i think that i think that my my wife is mostly just in a state of denial about the fans so i think that that's a healthy approach to call it the caller has a challenge for you how many grapes can mean she of fit in his mouth. so that's why there's a bowl of grapes i always wanted and also what are your thoughts on slots. i think that slots are actually aptly named and man what. you don't have to do this it's not a but if you want to go this is this is like a circus freak trick because a big grape still you'd known to bring love the big things you. do you do realize
11:25 pm
how that question came up i don't. i don't care. i think that might have been my threshold one grade up at haley paint there once you know that the supernatural say why like it says i don't have a question just thank you for being such a great cast well thank you you saved his life that's really nice to hear yes. yes only as does the amount of influence you have over people ever scare or worry you. well i think that it would be pretty megaman i call to think that i had a scary amount of influence over people so i'm ok with saying no and finally call a demo tweets i want you to snap his spend as oh so gently of interest to acknowledge your the his sharon stone doses or it was this i want to do. but sadly. it was nice thank you the she'll never be back. until
11:26 pm
a game called if you only knew some quick questions ready first version you kissed gail rogers where was this it was in the mud in the river riverbed right from my house i was three was. massachusetts will recall messages to go to find out what happened to her no crate question what keeps you up at night what where and where the hell is gail rogers that would keep me and what's a guilty pleasure you enjoy. enjoy a deal to pleasure. book would be one of the ok was the strangest thing about canada you should've been cooper util city vancouver is a beautiful city and now both of my kids were born in vancouver so i have two canadian children. and the strangest thing about canada is the canadians they're just so damn nice i mean it is incredible they are.
11:27 pm
drawled toronto it is a stereotype that is based on truth is based on truth. and they live in our shadow the shadow of america hovers over them yeah it makes me wonder if there are some sort of atomic bombs. if you could have something named after you it would be a sandwich like a reuben but not a ribbon ameesha ameesha hidden talent you have we may not know about. and curl my tongue. my god. how did you find that talent i actually saw someone else did it and i practiced for about two weeks to again once ok. that's enough thank you thanks to my guests the town was a collins supernatural airs tuesdays at nine and he stand eight central remember you can find me on twitter at king's things and if you haven't found me
11:28 pm
sure already you apparently don't know much about twitter we'll see you next time. i know c.n.n. the m s n b c news have taken some not slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be accurate. that was funny but it's close and for the truth from the might think. it's because one whole attention and the mainstream media works side by side with you is actually on here. at our team we have
