5:31 pm
click it, i had a career that's well i so i did, i said leave this fabulous brother. you want to doubt this into arcadia, even if it loses some people you'll get the residual on the front side from cognitive 70. i was like say and like i was a days ago and i said you might want to carbon date some of these jokes. i think they were discovered by dr. leaky son, and i was like, hey, that's not a dennis miller, joe, but i think i owe money for that. well, i am flattered that anything clubs in the you're very active. my know it's funny. it's like, if you know what's funny is, is i did call me like the, and i always wanted to say that, you know, barry cremeans passed away and in berry berry would say, mean things about me. you know, that's very criminal. but one thing that i wanted to let you know is that here he would had a big, soft spot for when he was disclosing and going through all his trauma about what
5:32 pm
kind of guy you were, how you stepped up, how you gave a mighty to fly back to deal with it and he would, he would say that he would speak very sweetly of you. so he would say mean things. he said mean things about me. but i wanted you to know that the berry i'm to the term leaving had always is when always let people know what you did for him. so well, that's sweet and i'm telling you if anything in common people always say, does it please you with a crowd to get laughs? yeah, it does occasionally though there's some sort of obi wan cat who you want to make laugh. really hard like and very was one of those guys. yeah, i would. yeah. i would like to go a little but i wouldn't go way out of my way and turn into a sweater. but i'd go a little bit out of my way to make cremeans laugh. and when he short old boy, that feels good. yeah. yeah. now listen, you will always exhibited. it was funny. it was cloaked under the you know, the, i always viewed your act is like surface tension on
5:33 pm
a glass. when you have one of those glasses that over filled those red plastic glasses and there's like a little thing that won't run down the side, but it sits on the top and it's shiver. it's tremulous. and i just always watch your act and say there's a nice the phrase on there in florida like said he. but if you listen to the jokes, i always have brothers, joseph, brilliant. they would stand alone. but when you mix them with the character, it was very, very extricating. but i actually think you kind of were right, you'd be like, well, this works, but you can leave me there. but this is a pretty good bit now, and i think you are smart enough to see that people were, weren't listening to me, you know, which was, again, a nice thing that you did for me. but yeah, i just like the idea i was trying to parody stand up when i was going to pretend just and then, and then i just became the thing i was trying to parity and i became a standard so, so that i kinda, you know, there was a time where i had to jettison the character i was in nashville, i was that is amy's. i remember the night and i was like,
5:34 pm
i can't do this person anymore. i think it was a big the audience. and i and i went out and i did use my real voice, and sure enough there's people going to do the good day. my adult daughter, that's her favorite heckle. like if i'm on stage, i know she's in the room because my kids love playing and the other parents because one of my references and my one son and my references not have a carbon date on you referred to earlier, but some reference of my kid a look at me to go, is that a d or b c that reference? it's the circle of life symbol and the get started. yeah. yeah, the ball busting gene doesn't scamp a generation. it's not a recessive gene. it's just goes right out a tell me of a joy ride and tell me about the joy of directing. tell me, i always thought you had such an intelligence that i thought you'd be good,
5:35 pm
wasn't apathetic character. you would orchestrate the stuff. tell me about joy ride . tell me his name in it was the great thing to go. yes. to dana and i would we go on the road together and we would flip a coin and see who was going to headline. and then we both realized that the people are enjoying us just sticking around at the beginning, the show more than they are enjoying our stand up. so we just started doing sets together. then we went out and filled it and we are, we are in a car accident on the way to tape it. and then i filled a bunch of shows. then the pandemic it. so it actually gave me a whole chance to cobble together. and hopefully it's funny for people not just stand up, but you see our relationship. huh. because dana says, you didn't, we didn't like each other when we met and i go, that's not sure. i hated you for that. and then the more i just scored is he really was terrified of me and, but it also explores our relationship. like i, i had a,
5:36 pm
i had a, you know, i had a break down on television. in fact, on your show, i remember i, i was on the night johnny carson was retiring, i go, we can do anything we want. let's be free and i took my pants off, which would probably would have been comedy one, a one. but then i took my underwear off too, so that was i was, it wasn't good. it was like, you're nice enough to have me on the so i'm like, darren, you to reboot me on that. so jim morrison, florida concert breaks. so i was nude on, you know, yeah, but pamphlets. i still didn't want people to see my love handles so, but so i'm being destructive kind of publicly and dana had a genuine, actual breakdown where he's hospitalized for a whole week. you know, and i was angry at everybody else. he was angry at himself and then we kind of,
5:37 pm
uh huh. we kind of both went through this at the same time. and we tell that story and, and a lot of, you know, it's like there's 2 kinds of irish catholic there's, there's dana gold, conan o'brien kind of oppressed, you know, and then there's b, the pogues, you know, yeah, yeah, you cry. yeah. you fall in love, you drink too much, you go to jail, you know, you said that's and i try to different approaches. you know, i always look at dana and i think of melanie when, when i'm, when a brain that quick and that astute about the human condition flips on itself. and turns on itself. dana gold, john maloney. yeah. are fine. you are fighting a savage fall when, when that flip flips and you turn on yourself. it's the irish irish and inches. this names are since they come down stealthily on that rope in the room. you don't
5:38 pm
even know brother. so i know that directing a documentary, as errol morris will tell you as different chops, then to writing a theatrical release or something like that, or a committee and special tell me what the joys in the rigors are. each of each one of those 3, bob, what style? documentaries. what did you enjoy and what, what do you find arduous, what documentaries is, is, is different because i hear limitless. you know, you can narrate something, you can animate something. you can, you can tell the story, a 1000000 ways when dana, we're making doesn't dana told me that we didn't like each other and i always hated them. i was like, secretly, i went, oh, i think i got a narrative here. i actually thought i would damage if this narrative has to play out. i'm going to have to apologize to him and i made myself the bill. and because i found footage of me being not very clever and just being vicious and i
5:39 pm
put it it. so my ego, it's like, do i want to look bad? or the story teller went out. i was like, ok, i look like. and by the way, i saw it with an audience and i couldn't buy a laugh for about 7 minutes after you seem retiring. and though, like people do not like me and but so doing a documentary with me and it was kind of worrisome because i didn't want to be indulgent and, and hopefully have a story, i think, no matter how brilliant a community is, 45 minutes and there's there's a, a fatigue that sets it. so i think hopefully this thing got around that by giving them a story. but i, i love like doing like patton as well special you know, to be able to talk to him and maybe maybe offer a suggestion here. and there, and then knowing well in this special he's going to, the last one i did with him was when he disclosed by his wife i. so i was like,
5:40 pm
how do you attack that? it's like, you know, i, so i don't want to ever cut. so i had a long lens, the slow is slow as push, and so, so no one noticed that maybe but, but, but, but you probably subtract some taxes, you're aware that we're not bouncing around. yes. so it's, it's, that's the challenge and it's sometimes directing a live comedy show is as simple as letting the comedian know, before they go on, it's like, i usually will say you got this, you did all the work you know. and no matter what they always the 1st other little tight. and then as soon as i say, i could put that on t v, that's perfect. and then you see the next show and they're very loose. but it's weird on patent patents. think that it is the 1st show because im disclosing was just so you know, motional emotional when you do something more theatrical, there's always the david lean approach, which is the,
5:41 pm
the man who walks around like this for 2 years in the desert and gets the shot perfect, or there is the mike nichol stuff i watched. who's afraid of virginia will feel that i don't think i got that so evocative of the nature of the human condition. and what i is, there's 2 approaches when you're doing it. do you like to be in the actors here a little more about this, or do you like to set up the shots or do you just like to co mingled them? i, i, i'm always take, i have my agenda when i think visually with us on again potential. but i have my agenda. but then once i start here and there's there, the feed back or, you know, letting people, i'm always, i start the day with the shots that list have all my hopes, dreams out of this a to stickley, go to look and i will get it. if it just doesn't make sense, like, you know, i know you are not going to want to cut off of robin's face right now. well, you know, it's funny. i was, i was visiting robin on the set of and i'm,
5:42 pm
i'm city actually might, nichols, i'm like, oh my god, nichols and i just sweating and i don't know what to say is it michaels goes, i'll tell you something. i'm like, wow, might give me some advice. show biz slot to hurry up and wait. like fancy grass or gas? no one rides for free. i think that's a very good. same thing with richard dod or he goes, kid, i hear you want to direct go to my trailer like richard dod is going to give me advice. he goes, take a lot of naps and just out, if you, me a below it, i think a map and i ran into it before he passed the way i go. do you remember that he was? it's true. so i go to bob. cat, go play. when we get back on the other side of the break, and once again the new film is a road trip documentary. think. think thelma and louise if they were devastatingly
5:43 pm
funny, bob good golds white and the brilliant dana gold who is inhabited the writer's room at the simpsons before. homer had his 1st due to the called joy. right? it'll be released in theaters and video on demand. on october 29th. we'll come back and ask them how they achieve that push and shot as a director and he visited robin. there was a talk about the great, a lot of the sweetest man ever and bob, i think he and bob were best. he's robin williams or bob got bobcat goal 3 right after this one. dennis miller plus one i to finance also i read all the money laundering 1st aid to visit this guy. i see the 3 different. oh good isn't a good start? well, we have our 3 banks all set up here. maybe something in europe, something in america, something overseas, in the cayman islands, in a row, all these banks are complicit in their club piper. so we just have to give them a call and say, hey,
5:44 pm
i'm ready to do some serious money. wonder ok. let's see how we did. well, we've got, oh, we've got a nice luxury watch for max and for stacy. oh, beautiful jewelry. and how about a bill again for mag? you know it, money one is higher. legal don't want to have ah well, if we keep admitting fossil fuels in the way that we're currently doing it, by the end of this century, $2100.00 level of carbon dioxide is necessary, would be a 1000 pos, familiar that we wouldn't have seen by level of carbon dioxide for 55000000 years. and when that last happened, there was no washing up on it. and as you said and talked to, can i have found some trees living on it. so the consequences will be a sea level glue body of about 60 maces higher than it is today.
5:45 pm
and is your media reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation for pim, unity. are you going the right way? where are you being led to somewhere? which direction? what is true wharf is faith in the world corrupted. you need to descend, have join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah
5:46 pm
hey folks. welcome back to dennis miller plus, why always enjoy talking to a fellow comedian because i, i know the interview will go well because we have some sort of 20 to 32nd switch that goes off where we say make it interesting. it's like when you 1st do, letterman book he says, have 2 stories and make them funny. we're doing chauvinists there. and i just thought i used to like that framing device, right? they get, what are we doing here with the make it funny. the new film is a road trip documentary called joy ride released, as they said, v o d. on october 29th. if you did that, you were there with the look, cause i always look at that opening shot, the slow push and oh my gosh. and do you have any idea how they did it? no, no, i'm assuming it's no, i don't know. i mean that now you could actually do that and camera so much,
5:47 pm
obviously better c g effect. you know, i don't want to say, gee, i know it's not, you know, the citizen kane, pushing through the skylight at the atlantic city club and the reg where i think they actually opened the window of the. i can't quite figure it out when i watch it . well, in the, the movie i do with robin, the world's greatest dad. there's a scene where robins walking down the hallway and he's hearing his he wrote a fake, his son dies, the long story. i don't know whether it's sundays during auto, erotic, and fixation. robin wright, the suicide letter trying to make this kid seem like he was smart and sweet and he was a horrible child. he's being haunted by his son. he's hearing the fake suicide note . he wrote, he's walking down the hallway and, and i go and, and kyle appears in the, in the, in the library window as you walk along. he's actually, he's, he's, he's saying along with his i. so how you doing as i like it, that computers are c,
5:48 pm
g, i go know he's going to stand behind the camera. i'm going to turn this light on and then it will show up in the with turned it off. but it will that work, i guess maybe she would win for plates, but i go to work. where did you get that idea? i go for the haunted mansion because i think there was like, i think you can't make are in a mansion, was that you have to sell my house. i got to go. you're going to stay to change quality hotel, the rest of it. so next time i see that, see, and i'll be thinking, graham grinning goes a lot, but you, you low and macgyver. dad was a c, g i on the budget you have for that, i'm sure and placebo, but to do the reflection of this beautiful brother. it's like i like, i like the solutions that like terry gilliam will have like scenes where it's an
5:49 pm
army and then you find out he only had 30 guys and 2 are standing in front of the land to are standing on the hill. you know, so i, i often feel like when you have to do stuff in camera, it almost seems like it works better. i don't know. i, you know what i think of all the people i know robin encountered a lot of people, but i think he fully trusted most of you and i know you and he loved you dearly. i know, you know, and she's, i still see him occasionally. i just get such a pang just because he was such a is obviously the comedian of his generation. such a sweet, well, he really was a kid playing loan soldiers in the attic was not 100 percent. and then i'm sure you saw he had thousands and thousands of toys. that's what he did with part of his fortune was to get those, those army guys. but i, i often think of them like, oh, i can't wait to tell them this. you know,
5:50 pm
one of the things he did that was very kind to me. it was, he would act even though we were, i'm sure he did this to you. he was generally interesting what you were doing and what was going on with you. and he, he would act like we were peers and clearly we weren't and i missed that friend. you know, i missed i, i think about of every day and, but i used to think it was like going to be like an arm that i was missing. it was never going to grow back, but actually now i just try to remember that he would want me to be happy and, and i, and i do just remember i try to remember a lot of laughs and stuff. whenever i get a pregnant pause anywhere, i'll go, i find myself saying prime minister both away courtesy phone, which is the kill. it was like but you know it's wrong with that. a little pregnant is mind when it was far and listen robin. i don't, my grandma is a freak when he was an arrest of state. he was very measured,
5:51 pm
he was so he had great reflections. he had a stranglehold on the human condition. would you get a maps? and he was in common kill mode. he did not like pregnant pauses that he would always do that stuff, but i didn't even realize it until i was doing joy. right. i was looking at old footage. i'm looking at my gate and the way i'm walking and stuff like that. oh you're, you're a thing mark, that's what you're doing. i mark so much. he would come self mark. oh, you know it's funny, but i get is. i also know it's funny because when i think of them they were both work and the major touch base. i know you and bowie had are very, very love comedians. well, it was funny is like when he passed away, my brother goes, do you remember when you made bowie played drums in the basement? because because he was a david,
5:52 pm
was going to sing and play guitar. i had like all his music equipment and i was like, no, no man, you know, we need a drummer. and so i went thing and he played drug and of course he could play drums well, but i maybe that's why we were friends like a he invited me to see the glass spider to come. kenny and i are there and he's like, he afterwards he's like so what do you think and i go, it was kind of like guys and dolls. house thought it was more like pippin. i go maybe angels in america because you do fly in on the wing and is just like, look at as like what, what is life you can see? oh, this is someone making fun of me to my face. and then he laughed and then we became friends. i was went to the studio with him and he's explain to me to all the young dudes. he's like, i really love mata, hope all i heard they're going to break up. i was, i was crushed. i thought i were right, i'm going to write them. i hit song and then they'll stay together and he goes,
5:53 pm
so i went home and i wrote a hit song and we're in the studio and i go, well, why don't you bust out some of that today? well you know, they were like they're like pharaohs, but they love the braid against but you know, he was like a made boy. he was a little rough and i think they love brought up against somebody who is now going to get away. yeah, i think it was just, it was kind of funny. i think i became more of a fan later. and as a kid, i was so much in that boy. so maybe that's why we became pals. but, you know, the 1st time your eyes think about rather, you know, it is the 1st time madam. i couldn't talk, but i was just back when i was wearing mascara and leisure suits on the agent crying. and i met the company connection. they go, they go robin williams, come go, go in the kitchen and hide some say in the kitchen. and then he comes in because

5:56 pm
keller and steven, right. and paula poundstone and myself and kevin me, so we're all kind of, it was really encourage that you had to have your own style. and if you didn't, you would get blackboard. so i think it did help a lot, but it was also really violent and scary and crazy. i remember. i remember this guy's like, i'm going to go home, get my nice lady. a guy leaves and he comes back. he's got his knife and the clerk. brothers are working the door and they just beat the guy. they read him until they beat him. right. and a dime. gavin's got a record, so he's got a cocktail. and he's watching this, this, the, the guy's going to be in the guy says that resolved bloody, swear to god and banga. hey, i hate kenya. you forgot you knife you had a bag with her about the black that you need somebody taken with
