[SPEAKER_00]: And you're back to work, too, that's good.

00:48.307 --> 00:50.149
[SPEAKER_00]: Back to work, speaking of what?

00:50.630 --> 00:52.853
[SPEAKER_00]: Thankful things, because I'll tell you.

00:53.592 --> 00:55.234
[SPEAKER_00]: That's, that's nerve-wracking.

00:55.534 --> 00:57.437
[SPEAKER_00]: I've never not worked today in my life.

00:57.517 --> 01:02.383
[SPEAKER_00]: I've never not been getting an income and I'll tell you, that's a stressful feeling.

01:03.024 --> 01:05.487
[SPEAKER_01]: So, like, I could never imagine it.

01:05.507 --> 01:07.589
[SPEAKER_01]: And you talk to a guy never really had a job.

01:08.090 --> 01:08.491
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.

01:09.912 --> 01:12.255
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it's, it's nice to be back.

01:12.516 --> 01:18.503
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, you know, we're bombarded, trying to get caught up, taking care of our veterans and stuff, but, um,

01:18.837 --> 01:42.212
[SPEAKER_00]: you know that was one thing that stressed me out is because I knew veterans were waiting for us to take care of them you know and all of you imagine how important your job is I mean yeah I I my hats off to all the vocary have counselors that are helping veterans get back to work and doing something they love every day and I know people were just jumping at the bit you know we went from

01:42.952 --> 01:58.733
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we worked at home that everyone had to come into the office and, you know, that kind of kicked morale a little bit and everyone had to restart their, you know, life going back into the office.

01:59.337 --> 02:15.912
[SPEAKER_00]: and and worst kind of grumpy about it and then then all of a sudden they're like okay well now you can stay home for a month and so I was really pleasantly surprised to see how many of the people I work with and and my co-workers that are helping veterans every day and

02:16.432 --> 02:24.548
[SPEAKER_00]: them saying, you know, nervous about what the delays and stuff want them to get back to work with them.

02:24.568 --> 02:26.231
[SPEAKER_00]: So it was cool.

02:26.692 --> 02:36.330
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, as crappy as it was Geody, I have said it before, we have gotten as a society kind of,

02:37.222 --> 02:38.944
[SPEAKER_00]: What's the word?

02:39.345 --> 02:49.298
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, just kind of spoiled where we get things the way we want it, you know, and so when things don't go as we plan, it sets people in an uproar.

02:49.738 --> 02:57.188
[SPEAKER_00]: And you and I, I think me not as much as you has had to be resilient and learn to kind of go with the bumps.

02:57.927 --> 02:58.688
[SPEAKER_00]: through life.

02:59.009 --> 03:00.271
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all I've done all my life.

03:00.872 --> 03:01.273
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.

03:02.114 --> 03:03.357
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'll say one thing.

03:03.377 --> 03:11.250
[SPEAKER_01]: The reason I wanted to definitely do this show tonight and dedicated for being thankful and every I have.

03:11.270 --> 03:16.379
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I can't believe this past year has been unbelievable for me.

03:17.121 --> 03:19.345
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I've never made so much money in a year.

03:19.866 --> 03:21.268
[SPEAKER_01]: I've never had so many great

03:22.480 --> 03:24.803
[SPEAKER_01]: things happening, which will get into.

03:24.943 --> 03:38.583
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I really just wanted to dedicate this show basically just to reflect on like you're saying, well, the work you do with the veterans, all the things up doing with the kids who need scholarships.

03:39.684 --> 03:42.348
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a great reward.

03:42.368 --> 03:45.152
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think we get rewarded personally.

03:46.153 --> 03:46.674
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.

03:46.734 --> 03:51.120
[SPEAKER_01]: And the good we're doing for other people.

03:51.455 --> 03:53.158
[SPEAKER_01]: What I'm doing for me is unreal.

03:53.659 --> 04:15.859
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, well, it's, you know, Gianni, I always, you never know what people think, but I see a side of view as such a giving person, such a kind person, people may not always see, you know, I know you do a lot of stuff on the back end, and with your foundation, or, you know, yes, you can.

04:16.143 --> 04:22.051
[SPEAKER_00]: you do a lot of great things that's life-changing for other people and boy that's that's a great feeling.

04:22.732 --> 04:25.275
[SPEAKER_01]: Well you know it's been I've been blessed.

04:25.295 --> 04:25.696
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

04:25.876 --> 04:29.942
[SPEAKER_01]: Once I got out of the polio ward where I was 12, I never looked back.

04:30.803 --> 04:31.083
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

04:31.263 --> 04:45.863
[SPEAKER_00]: And here I have, you know, we're talking about 71 years later and I'm still enjoying your, you know, the thing is about you, Gianna, you're thankful for every day, you know.

04:46.484 --> 04:49.170
[SPEAKER_01]: And I pray every day and I thank God for it.

04:49.591 --> 04:50.012
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't.

04:50.553 --> 04:56.686
[SPEAKER_01]: Who's out there, what you believe in, believe in something, how to give it's a Buddha, a monkey, I don't care what it is.

04:57.408 --> 05:00.976
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's got to be something other than you and really appreciate it.

05:01.697 --> 05:02.940
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I do.

05:03.612 --> 05:30.193
[SPEAKER_00]: yeah well it's fantastic well um so things things so starting back as a kid you know i had a friend who had a bunch of young kids and they lived in this beautiful home and uh she her her husband when i was say well these kids aren't grateful for this house they live in and i said they don't

05:30.173 --> 05:58.273
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly, and I just think, you know, growing up as a kid thinks you're grateful for, and then as we get older, those things kind of change, you know, but looking back, I love that I can think to be grateful for things and try and teach that to my little grandkids, you know, my little grandson that's 12, he goes to this weight training program,

05:58.793 --> 06:15.531
[SPEAKER_00]: And the guy that does it, he has a podcast called Sour, and he, at the end of all of this, the kids do their workouts, and they pull them all together at the end and say, go around the room and say, what are you grateful for?

06:16.371 --> 06:22.658
[SPEAKER_00]: And, and there was kids,

06:23.110 --> 06:36.630
[SPEAKER_00]: And each one went around the room and said what they were grateful for, and it was so, it was so sweet to hear these kids learning how rather than learning to complain.

06:37.100 --> 06:39.244
[SPEAKER_00]: learning how to be appreciative and grateful.

06:39.564 --> 06:48.740
[SPEAKER_00]: And the one little boy said, I'm thankful for paper and pencils that I have the ability to draw and do that.

06:48.760 --> 06:52.225
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought something is simple as pencil and paper.

06:52.646 --> 06:58.155
[SPEAKER_00]: And what a great exercise to begin with these kids.

07:00.199 --> 07:00.880
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a...

07:01.906 --> 07:05.049
[SPEAKER_01]: to when you don't have it, you want it and you appreciate it more.

07:06.030 --> 07:06.691
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.

07:06.711 --> 07:14.299
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I have kids that were raised in beautiful homes, what the great schools never had to worry if there was food on the table.

07:14.819 --> 07:15.260
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

07:15.280 --> 07:17.822
[SPEAKER_01]: And I wouldn't want to beat them.

07:17.842 --> 07:19.324
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen them now, they're mature.

07:19.984 --> 07:21.586
[SPEAKER_01]: They really have no goals in life.

07:21.606 --> 07:25.510
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't have drives, and they keep working.

07:25.650 --> 07:27.452
[SPEAKER_01]: Why do you keep doing what you do?

07:27.512 --> 07:28.393
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like I'm happy.

07:29.354 --> 07:31.356
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm happy in your war and I'm twice your age.

07:31.808 --> 07:32.269
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.

07:32.829 --> 07:39.256
[SPEAKER_00]: And I do think it's such a lesson to be taught to younger people.

07:39.557 --> 07:40.157
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?

07:40.197 --> 07:47.505
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if people kids now learn that in church or where they learn those sort of things.

07:47.646 --> 07:49.668
[SPEAKER_00]: I do have a daughter in law that bless her heart.

07:49.728 --> 07:50.509
[SPEAKER_00]: She's amazing.

07:50.569 --> 07:52.631
[SPEAKER_00]: She works at the university here.

07:53.292 --> 08:00.600
[SPEAKER_00]: And she has taken my little grandson who's going to be 13 in December and they have gone out and

08:01.610 --> 08:25.828
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... handed out food at schools and she has taught him that part of being a good person part of life is doing charity work and doing outreach and stuff like that and i think what a great lesson and he's learned it is a life you just be a good person and take care of people is he an only son he is there only son well that's great because he that she could pay more attention to him

08:26.213 --> 08:32.817
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm glad you teach him those values rather than buying a podcast and motorbikes and all the stuff.

08:32.837 --> 08:32.938
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

08:33.078 --> 08:33.861
[SPEAKER_01]: It means nothing.

08:34.212 --> 08:44.585
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, and in it, it goes a long way if you're a grateful person, if you're a giving person, you're kind to other people, you show empathy and compassion.

08:45.206 --> 08:48.050
[SPEAKER_00]: And he is an extremely talented athlete.

08:48.530 --> 08:51.174
[SPEAKER_00]: He's always done really great at school.

08:51.835 --> 08:53.277
[SPEAKER_00]: He handsome as could be.

08:53.297 --> 08:55.600
[SPEAKER_00]: And I tell him all the time, you know what, buddy?

08:55.980 --> 09:01.367
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm so proud of you for all the things you do, but you are such a good person.

09:01.786 --> 09:06.732
[SPEAKER_00]: on the inside, and that is, that's what I'm most proud of, you know.

09:07.593 --> 09:28.198
[SPEAKER_00]: So, so I was just curious as we started talking about being thankful at this time of year, you know, you started out very young in a position, you know, you were thankful to get the heck out of that polio ward, right?

09:28.735 --> 09:43.653
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, again, I wouldn't change one day of my life, but there was times I was, you know, I'm very religious and I would question God, why, why are you doing this to me?

09:44.313 --> 09:49.900
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't say, oh, because I know, I know the Bible, I know the cataclysm books, I know all of that.

09:50.639 --> 09:51.961
[SPEAKER_01]: So why am I here?

09:52.001 --> 09:53.443
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I here?

09:53.463 --> 09:54.585
[SPEAKER_01]: But five or six years.

09:54.985 --> 09:56.888
[SPEAKER_01]: And then get attacked by a pedophile.

09:57.409 --> 09:57.689
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

09:57.769 --> 09:58.250
[SPEAKER_01]: That about.

09:59.071 --> 09:59.412
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

10:00.593 --> 10:04.219
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I could have come out and really screwed.

10:04.239 --> 10:16.216
[SPEAKER_01]: But then go on that, you know, I had people around me, like Dolores Barone and Dr. Bloomquest and just people, you know, and to involve with me.

10:16.236 --> 10:20.562
[SPEAKER_01]: And then obviously after that,

10:21.048 --> 10:24.571
[SPEAKER_01]: But this year, I can't believe what's going on.

10:25.532 --> 10:36.862
[SPEAKER_01]: It's all I mean, my books all over a hundred thousand copies and people like Nick Pelleges and all these other people are telling me that's insane.

10:38.063 --> 10:42.206
[SPEAKER_01]: And now to my, you know, Tuesday, my notebook comes out.

10:43.527 --> 10:46.130
[SPEAKER_01]: Which is, again, I got another book.

10:46.670 --> 10:50.093
[SPEAKER_01]: It's pre-selling and it's on, I mean, it's,

10:50.579 --> 11:12.958
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a hot item that I have a friend of mine that I've known for a hundred years, Fred Gallo, who's done midnight, Ron Big Movies, and I congratulated him the other day because he sold a script that he wrote about our body and John Rose directing Nicholas Cage's starring

11:13.630 --> 11:15.994
[SPEAKER_01]: And I called him, I said unbelievable.

11:16.635 --> 11:18.078
[SPEAKER_01]: He said, what about your book?

11:18.358 --> 11:19.821
[SPEAKER_01]: Why don't we make a movie out of it?

11:20.422 --> 11:25.391
[SPEAKER_01]: I said, when you're going to get off this film, he said, I just sold a script.

11:25.411 --> 11:26.392
[SPEAKER_01]: What are you talking about?

11:26.412 --> 11:27.654
[SPEAKER_01]: He said, so I have to do.

11:28.576 --> 11:30.259
[SPEAKER_01]: I sent them two books.

11:31.922 --> 11:32.403
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.

11:32.683 --> 11:35.168
[SPEAKER_01]: And what's that one called?

11:35.188 --> 11:35.689
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you say?

11:35.729 --> 11:36.550
[SPEAKER_01]: What he's doing?

11:37.222 --> 11:38.223
[SPEAKER_01]: The Goddy story.

11:38.684 --> 11:41.267
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, call again being, I'm sorry.

11:41.688 --> 11:59.690
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, really can't be, you know, and Nicholas, this Nicholas cage is playing call again being, you know, and, you know, it's, I think it's great casting because if you look at Nicholas cage now and call again being, oh, pictures of me and her, he has that long-dated face.

12:00.171 --> 12:06.098
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what, I don't know, again, I don't know the, the story of it,

12:06.668 --> 12:09.471
[SPEAKER_01]: He lived in a very modest house in Brooklyn.

12:09.491 --> 12:11.413
[SPEAKER_01]: You would never know who he was who he was.

12:12.194 --> 12:14.417
[SPEAKER_01]: But let's see what they do with that.

12:14.777 --> 12:20.604
[SPEAKER_01]: But again, I was just calling it to congratulate the guy for selling this script that he wrote.

12:21.745 --> 12:25.950
[SPEAKER_01]: And him and Nick Vola Longo, the guy who wrote Green Book, both wrote this.

12:26.610 --> 12:30.795
[SPEAKER_01]: So both these guys, I was congratulated.

12:30.815 --> 12:32.057
[SPEAKER_01]: And he comes back to me.

12:32.617 --> 12:34.279
[SPEAKER_01]: He's wondering, are we going to make your movie?

12:34.985 --> 12:58.984
[SPEAKER_00]: as when do you want to send me to stuff and I did oh nice that's exciting I just watched Nicholas Cage in something the other day and fact I didn't it just dawned on me now when you brought it up that I didn't watch the end of it and I'm like I don't even know what it was called but I I like Nicholas Cage and any I look forward to that

12:59.639 --> 13:08.593
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you know, it was so funny, when Nicholas Cage, you know, his, his, his, he is a copler, you know, you know, his father's name is a copler.

13:08.954 --> 13:15.364
[SPEAKER_01]: He took his mother's name because he didn't want to use and try to backdoor getting in because he's a copler.

13:16.826 --> 13:18.909
[SPEAKER_01]: But, you know, you talk about this guy.

13:18.929 --> 13:26.862
[SPEAKER_01]: He's, you know, far back, I, we did a movie called Family Man.

13:28.192 --> 13:36.965
[SPEAKER_01]: And the first day on the set, Brett Rackner, who was our director, said, come out on one introducer Nicolas Cage.

13:37.046 --> 13:37.947
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to say anything.

13:38.788 --> 13:40.291
[SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't tell him anything about it.

13:40.891 --> 13:42.854
[SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't often Nicolas Cage will remember.

13:44.056 --> 13:49.384
[SPEAKER_01]: So we knock on the toilet door and he opens the door and Brett said, I want an introducer, Johnny Russo.

13:49.405 --> 13:50.326
[SPEAKER_01]: He started laughing.

13:51.968 --> 13:56.275
[SPEAKER_01]: His year introducing me to Johnny Russo.

13:56.845 --> 13:59.047
[SPEAKER_01]: is I met him when I was 13 years old.

[SPEAKER_01]: I was, he was the ring bearer in my wedding in the Godfather scene.

14:05.374 --> 14:07.756
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember seeing him, I thought he was younger than that.

14:08.157 --> 14:22.752
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, yeah, it's crazy, and then family men, we talked about your movies, and I watched that last year, and I remembered what a great show that was, because he was hilarious, and I love tailionion that show too.

14:23.255 --> 14:32.023
[SPEAKER_00]: That was seeing you in more of a light-hearted, you know, funny when you're at the bowling alley and stuff, you know.

14:32.203 --> 14:33.384
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we had a bowling league.

14:33.404 --> 14:34.645
[SPEAKER_01]: We had all that stuff.

14:34.665 --> 14:35.907
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I love that.

14:35.967 --> 14:37.968
[SPEAKER_00]: See a different, a different side of you.

14:38.589 --> 14:39.870
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's fun.

14:40.551 --> 14:47.517
[SPEAKER_00]: So let's talk a little about Thanksgiving because we're talking about being thankful, but I'm curious, because I know you love to cook.

14:48.138 --> 14:51.861
[SPEAKER_00]: So are you going to cook Thanksgiving dinner?

14:52.567 --> 15:03.139
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, right now, Julia and I are doing a lot of things very alone because we don't have that much time alone, so we can have that time.

15:03.700 --> 15:09.407
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's just us cooking by ourselves because I have 50 invites I don't want to go.

15:54.831 --> 16:00.237
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, you know, I didn't like you said, you know, we're earlier on the show.

16:01.699 --> 16:05.924
[SPEAKER_01]: We were trying to do things for Malin and are to kill Galin fortunately.

16:06.385 --> 16:11.571

[SPEAKER_01]: That's certificates reverse from the suicide side.

16:18.494 --> 16:24.563

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

16:30.692 --> 16:37.262
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, when they analyzed it, they don't want to open the cases because they have nobody to prosecute.

16:37.478 --> 16:39.461
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, right.

16:39.741 --> 16:42.965
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm the only person still alive that really knew all of them.

16:43.286 --> 16:43.887
[SPEAKER_00]: Both of them.

16:44.007 --> 16:45.509
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's so crazy.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, and that's funny that you say that because it's like just that That thing you got to be part of the other day.

16:53.380 --> 16:59.588
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll tell you I was so excited when I watched those videos and saw the person

16:59.872 --> 17:09.646
[SPEAKER_00]: pulling the cover off of the streets I night I was watching it with my mom and I was like, oh my gosh, Diani is pulling the back the curtain.

17:10.147 --> 17:11.829
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that was fantastic.

17:12.150 --> 17:26.470
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it was a great privilege and for the audience that doesn't know on the eighth, the 60th anniversary of Dorothy Kilgallon, we got her street renamed

17:26.585 --> 17:32.931
[SPEAKER_01]: Dorothy Kilgallonway, 68th Street, she lived in a brownstone there, 45.

17:34.612 --> 17:55.090
[SPEAKER_01]: I walked home so many nights from the Copacabana as a young kid, and she was another woman, you know, once she found out, because she knew nothing about me, but once she started

17:55.863 --> 18:12.341
[SPEAKER_01]: because she was trying to prove that the Kennedys assassinated Marilyn, and now three years later, three years later, the same people that assassinated Marilyn assassinated her.

18:14.363 --> 18:20.470
[SPEAKER_01]: And again, just these things in my life, this, so equation, because Marx and Clair

18:21.158 --> 18:23.642
[SPEAKER_01]: who was a colorist at Lily Dashay.

18:24.443 --> 18:34.800
[SPEAKER_01]: When I got caught on the streets, I had to go to, you know, have vocation school until I was 16, because you're not allowed.

18:35.501 --> 18:37.103
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to go to school to use 16.

18:37.844 --> 18:49.022
[SPEAKER_01]: So I went there and I became a shampoo boy, the him and Kenneth, and only to find out through the years, mocks and clare.

18:49.255 --> 19:05.378
[SPEAKER_01]: used to go to Dorothy Kilgallon's house every morning to wake her up, do a hair and a makeup, because she knows she was on what's my line, the top column this, and he was the one that found her dead.

19:06.821 --> 19:07.542
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's right.

19:08.022 --> 19:14.672
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, so I mean, all these revelations I'm having this year,

19:15.682 --> 19:42.465
[SPEAKER_01]: and all the gratefulness I'm having that I'm able to name it, get not me, but I mean, a lot of people involved in this, but we organize it, coordinate it, and like you pointed out, they gave me the privilege of sliding that thing, well, plus I have a signed and a proclamation coming up a house, which I love that, I bought, I want that, I want that, well, and I heard them, the congressman,

19:43.272 --> 19:46.177
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, Rob Horton, was it?

19:46.879 --> 20:03.610
[SPEAKER_00]: Custard, sorry, the congressman, anyway, that we had on our show, I'll remember in a second, but him say that they wanted to get some of her family around, but they were not all that excited about it, but didn't want to get their names kicked up in any sort of

20:04.703 --> 20:06.165
[SPEAKER_01]: They're still afraid.

20:06.706 --> 20:07.988
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.

20:08.308 --> 20:10.311
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't want to say that, and the end of you.

20:10.792 --> 20:11.112
[SPEAKER_01]: Sure.

20:11.252 --> 20:13.836
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't want to be associated with it.

20:13.856 --> 20:14.136
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

20:15.037 --> 20:15.398
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

20:15.819 --> 20:17.120

[SPEAKER_00]: Right.

20:20.585 --> 20:25.292
[SPEAKER_00]: You wouldn't, um, uh, why bring any harm to their life.

20:25.312 --> 20:26.433
[SPEAKER_00]: They wouldn't know anything.

20:26.614 --> 20:29.418
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, but I could see not wanting to take any chances.

20:29.438 --> 20:30.599
[SPEAKER_01]: Would bring the armor done.

20:31.280 --> 20:31.801
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

20:31.821 --> 20:33.343
[SPEAKER_01]: But that's how cautious they are.

20:33.610 --> 20:36.515
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, did you know that you were going to get to pull that?

20:37.237 --> 20:40.122
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, uncover the, I didn't know at all.

20:40.162 --> 20:51.062

[SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, just this podcast, you know, I am thankful for it when we first started, you know, I first moved to this house and sitting here by myself all the time.

27:22.070 --> 27:27.416
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, first of all, let me back up, just little things to be thankful for in life.

27:27.476 --> 27:30.640
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think we need to look for the little things in life to be thankful for.

27:30.740 --> 27:35.085
[SPEAKER_00]: But I just started listening to your podcast and I love it.

27:35.385 --> 27:43.014
[SPEAKER_00]: And we've got followers, we've got so many followers that like Jose who we love, people that are following us every week.

27:43.074 --> 27:46.178
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm thankful for those guys are great followers.

27:46.258 --> 27:50.743
[SPEAKER_01]: But, you know, I have to, I have to thank Pat Pitcher Lily.

27:51.280 --> 27:52.284
[SPEAKER_00]: absolutely.

27:53.006 --> 27:53.809
[SPEAKER_01]: He is of that.

27:54.492 --> 28:02.421
[SPEAKER_01]: You were helping him on the phone and he was telling us about you on the air and you were in.

28:03.245 --> 28:11.557
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that was right, and you know, and Megan, when I first started listening to you, I'll tell you what, she had a voice that was like velvet.

28:11.937 --> 28:24.915
[SPEAKER_00]: She was fantastic, I love listening to her and Pat, I loved his stories and what he did with you in the first book, Hollywood Godfather was magnificent, obviously, because it's still going strong.

28:24.895 --> 28:33.683
[SPEAKER_00]: But just to have this podcast to listen to every week and and to be able to write in a question on Facebook and and to get you to answer it.

28:34.224 --> 28:41.631
[SPEAKER_00]: But just the friendships that I've gotten, you know, to have now in my life from being around you has been so fun.

28:41.691 --> 28:42.592
[SPEAKER_00]: So thank you.

28:42.612 --> 28:44.433
[SPEAKER_01]: We have a lot of plans for you this year.

28:44.494 --> 28:44.794
[SPEAKER_01]: No.

28:44.994 --> 28:46.595
[SPEAKER_01]: That's where you should let them know also.

28:47.677 --> 28:53.502
[SPEAKER_01]: What we're doing next week you're doing with me is we are now going back out.

28:54.224 --> 29:13.188
[SPEAKER_01]: on cameo, expand that to all listeners and what we're offering you, not only just birthday videos, holiday videos, wedding videos, and what's so good about cameos, it stays on your phone and it's forever.

29:14.309 --> 29:21.058
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you've got even five or six people to chip in, we

29:21.983 --> 29:26.527
[SPEAKER_01]: and we do a cameo for two or three minutes about whatever the subject is.

29:28.069 --> 29:30.972
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm so psyched every.

29:32.593 --> 29:33.694
[SPEAKER_01]: Tell the wise by us.

29:34.675 --> 29:36.617
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it's going to be fantastic.

29:36.657 --> 29:42.703
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, uh, well, we'll get the link up there and, you know, nothing's going to be.

29:43.444 --> 29:45.086
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll tell you what I'm so excited.

29:45.166 --> 29:50.691
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got friends that I mean, my brother is such a huge fan.

29:50.890 --> 30:04.143
[SPEAKER_00]: And when, you know, I brought him home a picture that he has in his little bar in his house that you signed for him while we were at the Hollywood show or when we were in Knoxville.

30:04.163 --> 30:11.690
[SPEAKER_00]: But just the so many people, when I'll say to him, well, have you seen the Godfather?

30:11.850 --> 30:14.112
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're like, what are you talking about?

30:14.152 --> 30:16.294
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not, that's not the question, Gini.

30:16.354 --> 30:17.235
[SPEAKER_00]: The question is,

30:17.688 --> 30:20.311
[SPEAKER_00]: how many times have you seen the Godfather?

30:20.771 --> 30:28.360
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, so I'm so excited just to pass this along to just my friends and let them know that they could get that.

30:28.380 --> 30:31.844
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I can't imagine they're probably people want to buy it for themselves.

30:32.244 --> 30:33.346
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you know any were so called me?

30:33.486 --> 30:33.806
[SPEAKER_00]: You know?

30:35.068 --> 30:37.751
[SPEAKER_01]: I do it, you know.

30:37.851 --> 30:45.940
[SPEAKER_01]: I just had a lady contact me through a friend, but I never had this, this asked about me.

30:46.898 --> 30:57.135
[SPEAKER_01]: She wants me because her husband died to introduce her daughter and son at their wedding on a video.

30:58.336 --> 31:00.520
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh, how fun.

31:00.540 --> 31:02.944
[SPEAKER_01]: And she said to me, how much would you charge?

31:03.064 --> 31:06.229
[SPEAKER_01]: I said, I can't charge you for that's a privilege.

31:06.790 --> 31:09.775
[SPEAKER_01]: You're asking me, you know, knowing the story now.

31:10.696 --> 31:12.079
[SPEAKER_01]: How could I charge you anything?

31:12.800 --> 31:13.581
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh.

31:13.966 --> 31:19.795
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, then think about this is you've got endless, it could be for any reason or no reason.

31:20.617 --> 31:22.600
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it doesn't have to be a special occasion.

31:23.281 --> 31:28.369
[SPEAKER_00]: They can go on, they can request that you want something from Gianni herself.

31:28.990 --> 31:30.793
[SPEAKER_00]: And you could put a little bit on that.

31:31.134 --> 31:31.715
[SPEAKER_01]: Let them know.

31:31.735 --> 31:33.137
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to Thanksgiving.

31:34.359 --> 31:35.541
[SPEAKER_01]: You'll be handling all that.

31:35.842 --> 31:38.466
[SPEAKER_01]: And whatever it is, we'll fulfill it.

31:38.887 --> 31:39.788
[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

31:40.443 --> 31:41.384
[SPEAKER_00]: So stay tuned.

31:41.464 --> 31:45.210

[SPEAKER_02]: So oh yeah.

31:55.745 --> 31:57.207
[SPEAKER_00]: And share us with a friend of course.

31:58.288 --> 31:59.189
[SPEAKER_00]: So so.

31:59.770 --> 32:03.936
[SPEAKER_01]: I think like you say Jose, there's so many people that

32:04.743 --> 32:10.030
[SPEAKER_01]: unbeknownst to us that we're bringing attention in the light too.

32:10.571 --> 32:11.432
[SPEAKER_01]: We pray for them.

32:11.872 --> 32:25.911
[SPEAKER_01]: So I mean it's it's it's we're in a great play or I feel amazing it, you know, a three weeks I'll be 83 who in my life ever thought I'd be doing what I'm doing and what I've achieved is insane.

32:25.951 --> 32:27.793
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm not stopping.

32:27.893 --> 32:28.634
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the good news.

32:29.536 --> 32:32.860
[SPEAKER_01]: Like even I just got in touch with the lock.

32:33.835 --> 32:38.289
[SPEAKER_01]: in Dublin, and my first show is almost sold out.

32:38.951 --> 32:40.295
[SPEAKER_01]: It's only 400 seats.

32:41.177 --> 32:43.625
[SPEAKER_01]: But they're asking if I'll do another show.

32:44.227 --> 32:45.069
[SPEAKER_01]: Why wouldn't I?

32:45.872 --> 32:46.714
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course.

32:47.875 --> 32:49.777
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's amazing.

32:50.077 --> 32:54.722
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, those 400 seat ones, I don't know, you know, I went to Engelberg.

32:54.822 --> 32:58.686
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how big that venue was.

32:58.846 --> 33:10.838
[SPEAKER_00]: But I love those shows that they're small enough, that you, you're not clear up in the rafters, you suck, they're so intimate and get, so I get to know you and feel like they're just right in a room with you.

33:11.418 --> 33:12.479
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

33:12.499 --> 33:16.363
[SPEAKER_01]: I've been lucky with that, too.

33:17.052 --> 33:21.499
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to Baku, Azerbaijan again, which I didn't even know where that was.

33:22.501 --> 33:25.405
[SPEAKER_01]: And the sugar was 25,000 people.

33:26.307 --> 33:27.308
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't even imagine.

33:27.749 --> 33:29.271
[SPEAKER_01]: But Emin, who produced that?

33:29.692 --> 33:31.375
[SPEAKER_01]: That kid's a genius over there.

33:31.896 --> 33:32.176
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

33:32.457 --> 33:37.124
[SPEAKER_01]: But he's all in Dubai and all those gazillionaires they've money I can't believe.

33:39.388 --> 33:40.129
[SPEAKER_01]: It's that's so good.

33:40.810 --> 33:42.773
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that's wild.

33:43.715 --> 33:56.846
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we're kind of focusing on what we're thankful for and and Thanksgiving, do you have, I know this year's a little quiet, but do you have any sort of tradition that you like to do for Thanksgiving?

33:57.707 --> 33:57.887
[SPEAKER_01]: No.

33:58.588 --> 34:01.070
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you as a kid or is it always something different?

34:02.151 --> 34:03.492
[SPEAKER_01]: I do it all along.

34:04.513 --> 34:05.294
[SPEAKER_01]: It's so hard.

34:06.014 --> 34:08.476
[SPEAKER_01]: They used to get mad at me because I didn't know who to pick and choose.

34:09.177 --> 34:12.540
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I have so many mothers for my kids, so many kids all over the world.

34:12.976 --> 34:13.357
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

34:13.737 --> 34:26.796
[SPEAKER_01]: How could I promise I'm going to, I got kids everywhere, I got, and then they get me into why, you know, I'm not, I'm not the typical father to begin with.

34:27.697 --> 34:29.319
[SPEAKER_01]: I was the graduations.

34:29.419 --> 34:32.504
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't, I didn't want to paint a picture that was a father.

34:33.225 --> 34:35.488
[SPEAKER_01]: I was doing what I was doing and just sending money.

34:35.748 --> 34:38.292
[SPEAKER_01]: They were living in my houses and having fun.

34:38.626 --> 34:41.290
[SPEAKER_01]: and that's the long and short of it.

34:41.310 --> 34:45.415
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm not getting any awards for being father of the year.

34:46.056 --> 34:47.958
[SPEAKER_01]: That I wouldn't even want to be.

34:49.200 --> 34:56.850
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it's certainly not, you know, I think everybody has their own way in life, you know what I mean?

34:57.251 --> 35:02.037
[SPEAKER_00]: You certainly didn't leave any of your kids in harm's way.

35:02.458 --> 35:04.060
[SPEAKER_00]: I think all of your kids were,

35:05.170 --> 35:07.935
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, you weren't someone that was going to get it.

35:07.955 --> 35:09.759
[SPEAKER_01]: Most of their mothers were all good mothers.

35:10.360 --> 35:11.021
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

35:11.041 --> 35:16.972
[SPEAKER_01]: There was one son at a bad mother and that fortunately, her mother father took my son over.

35:17.874 --> 35:20.899
[SPEAKER_01]: But she got hooked up in drugs and that happens.

35:21.360 --> 35:23.925
[SPEAKER_01]: But hey, nine out of ten is good.

35:24.005 --> 35:24.847
[SPEAKER_01]: That's fabulous.

35:25.207 --> 35:26.149
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a good one.

35:28.019 --> 35:30.682
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not something to be thankful for.

35:30.702 --> 35:31.463
[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

35:32.304 --> 35:37.990
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, hey, sometimes you got to dig a little thief to get that fake full thing, but as long as we find it.

35:41.214 --> 35:42.074
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that's so funny.

35:42.415 --> 35:43.656
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, hey, I'm.

35:44.077 --> 35:46.499
[SPEAKER_01]: Excuse me, what are you doing throughout all of this?

35:46.599 --> 35:51.905
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, let me tell you, my kids are getting old and grown and doing what they want to do.

35:52.726 --> 35:56.170
[SPEAKER_00]: We've always gone out to my sister's house, but

35:56.572 --> 35:59.998
[SPEAKER_00]: We were speaking of hip surgeries and she's kind of got it.

36:00.259 --> 36:01.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, she needs to have a hip surgery.

36:01.902 --> 36:08.534
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I just said my son now Him and his wife have offered to do it over there.

36:08.955 --> 36:14.125
[SPEAKER_00]: Also this year, we're going to all go to their house and You know the tradition that's great.

36:14.385 --> 36:14.686
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and my mom's still coming.

36:17.611 --> 36:18.513
[SPEAKER_00]: She's 89.

36:18.633 --> 36:19.575
[SPEAKER_00]: She's still

36:51.587 --> 37:01.816
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's not going to be here, but my son who's hosting it, and then my daughter, now they grow up and get married, Gianni, and then they got to go to other places.

37:02.337 --> 37:09.103
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't know, it's a mixed bag, and not only that, and it's one thing I'm very,

37:09.775 --> 37:10.938
[SPEAKER_00]: very thankful for.

37:10.998 --> 37:25.219
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not a family that sits down at this at the table and, you know, it's kind of a, it's a party and everybody can come and go if you have a friend with nowhere to go, bring them along.

37:25.452 --> 37:27.875
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we've just always been house come and go.

37:28.176 --> 37:29.878
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's always been like that.

37:29.978 --> 37:30.639
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't know.

37:30.659 --> 37:31.981
[SPEAKER_00]: There'll be a handful of people.

37:32.001 --> 37:35.867
[SPEAKER_00]: I probably 20 30 people go in and out of that.

37:36.147 --> 37:37.209
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's a big handful.

37:37.249 --> 37:37.970
[SPEAKER_01]: 23.

37:38.430 --> 37:39.352
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.

37:39.372 --> 37:41.334
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it's always that.

37:41.354 --> 37:43.938
[SPEAKER_00]: And my niece comes and will bring a cousin.

37:43.958 --> 37:46.361
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, that's the one thing about my house.

37:46.421 --> 37:48.945
[SPEAKER_00]: We've always been in and with my family.

37:48.925 --> 37:53.412
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if we've got a friend that needs some more to go, there's always some new person.

37:53.753 --> 38:12.283
[SPEAKER_00]: There's always a new person every year, or if one of us was dating a guy that we would bring to Thanksgiving, they'd make bets on my smart ass nap, you would make bets on whether we'll see the sky again next year.

38:14.322 --> 38:23.718
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't cook, you know me, I'm not a meat eater really, so I was listening, there's a show on Netflix, which is so funny.

38:23.918 --> 38:28.486
[SPEAKER_00]: I just threw it on for noise, but I have absolutely loved it.

38:28.546 --> 38:31.791
[SPEAKER_00]: It's with 10 Danza or Ted Danzen.

38:32.311 --> 38:34.457
[SPEAKER_00]: The name and Mary steam version.

38:34.758 --> 38:37.205
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, oh, the inside man.

38:37.787 --> 38:38.649
[SPEAKER_00]: It's on Netflix.

38:38.709 --> 38:43.202
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you watched that, but it is hilarious.

38:43.383 --> 38:46.371
[SPEAKER_00]: And there was a gal in there and she said,

38:46.958 --> 38:48.100
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what to do.

38:48.120 --> 39:11.211
[SPEAKER_00]: I invited people over for Thanksgiving and and I don't know how to do this and they said well what have you done so far and she said well I bought a turkey and it's sitting on the counter and they were like oh no and they said well first thing you need to do is stick your hand in there and get

39:11.545 --> 39:16.452
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm not getting my hands inside of a turkey, but and I never cook.

39:16.512 --> 39:18.455
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm good to bring like some pie.

39:18.495 --> 39:21.821
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm good to bring like the drinks, you know.

39:22.281 --> 39:24.344
[SPEAKER_01]: Even better because everybody can't bring a turkey.

39:24.865 --> 39:26.247
[SPEAKER_01]: So everybody should, you know.

39:26.988 --> 39:27.529
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

39:27.790 --> 39:28.110
[SPEAKER_01]: You know.

39:28.991 --> 39:31.916
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, they know, they know my limitations.

39:31.976 --> 39:36.743
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I told you the story that when you're I took this big fancy, beautiful,

39:37.415 --> 39:57.518
[SPEAKER_00]: concoction, I don't even know what it was, something gorgeous in this glass bowl that I should have done it in a tupper where then they might have bought it, but they were like, we're in a world that that thing come from and it was had whipped cream and layers of my own raspberries and it was beautiful and they were like, do you make that?

39:57.618 --> 40:00.942
