This is another episode of stand up comedy. Your host in MC celebrating 40 plus years on the fringe of show business stories, interviews and comedy sets from the famous and not so famous. Here's your host and MC, Scott Edwards. Hi, and welcome back to the podcast. This week we have another great lineup of stand up comedy for you. Closing up the show later on is a guy that was the very first act ever to hit my stage in August of 1980. This recording is from a few years after that. But a very, very funny guy known as the King of Las Vegas, George Wallace, is on the show. Also a guy that won the San Francisco comedy competition and did a lot of tv back in the late eighties. Very, very funny young man. Michael Pritchard will be right before George and then before him, the always controversial, always funny Dennis Miller, who you know from the Dennis Miller show and his many television appearances. But we're going to kick things off with something a little closer to home. Back in the late eighties, I produced some very large concerts at a nice large theater here in Sacramento, in fact, the convention center theater. And I did a couple with Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld, Dana Carvey. But I did one where the star was Harry Anderson. That's right, the magician on cheers and night court and the comic opening. His show was a very funny guy that I'd been using for years. You've heard him a lot on the podcast, but we have a good long set from comic musician Sam Gutman. He's out of the Bay Area. He has hung up his guitar. He no longer performs. But a very funny guy that was a club regular and did a great job on this concert opening up for Harry Anderson. So four great acts to entertain you today. Let's jump into it. Here's a long comedy set from the very talented and funny comic musician Sam Gutman. I pissed somebody on. I'm in Lodi and I asked this guy at the gas station, hey, I work in the club, what's the town? You guys make fun of me. He goes, what you talking about? They hit the evolutionary chain. Why don't we

all get up about 08: 2:37

00 tomorrow and meet at the Roseville auction? What do you say? Guess you've been there, huh? Acres and acres of tread. I went there with them like, ooh, look, rusty tools. How much? Hose and that. Okey dokey. Throw it away. Get a truck and throw it away. I was working down in Monterey recently. You've been down there? Isn't that gorgeous down there? Did you go to the Monterey aquarium? See that place really hot. Beaut. I love the whole fish thing. And there was this really cool hands on tide pool. You can play with the starfish and the sea urchins from that. And all the little japanese tourists were, like, filling their bags. That's cruel. They don't speak English. They think hands on means catch up. The day don't pick up with Japanese. People are always getting mad. Don't be. The Japanese are buying up this country. That ain't right, nigga. They're just buying it all. Well, they work hard and they got the money. Let em have em. Besides, they're just tiny people. We'll just knock them down and take it back when the tight comes. I was reading the paper today. Turns out that us guys, men with low cholesterol, this is true. I don't make nothing of it. Men today with low cholesterol have a greater chance of dying by violent death or accident. So I'm thinking in my infinite wisdom, somewhere out there, a couple of fat bastards in a van eating chicken wings, going, oh, look, a jogger. Look, a whole team. Oh, man, what's the workout? I'm not working out. I'm not getting fat. My wife says I'm getting fat. Do I look fat or not? Yeah, you one guy. You look too close from way back there. I'm sure I'm not fat. Fat to me is when you're fat to me. When you're sleeping in bed, you've got all the covers and there's still the drowns. I was down in old town. I took a walk just to check it all out. I love old town. It's cool. They had these cops. You see these cops little shorts on mountain bikes. And I kept thinking of that tv show cops. That theme song. You know what you gonna do when they come for ha ha. Shit. With a bottle in my head. You gotta get a cardinal. What you doing to do mountain bike? My wife said, get a bike. She'd go, I buy this mountain bike, right? You know what they call it? A mountain bike. Cause you wanna ride over the first cliff and throw that piece of shit off the edge. It's not a word. Then she said, get a helmet. Cause you're getting old. So I get this helmet with the wind scoop in the back. You know, it was like putting a spoiler on a Vega. I was like, whee. I'm aerodynamic, Mandae. What was that? Nobody used to sell you that. You gotta have that for $8. Like that stuff to send my. Hey, creep. Creep. Remember that? It's my vaulting. For my kids, just to show them it doesn't work. They got hit by a truck. I told you that doesn't work. But some people. My kids are crazy, kids are cool. My two little daughters, they know when you're fed up with them, they can tell when you don't want to really be around. You know, like when you're reading that bedtime story and you're not in the mood, you're going, once upon a fucking time, can I go? I love you too. But my daughter, when she was two years old, couldn't speak in a full sentence. Kids can't. It's always fragmented sentences. She would say things like, daddy, laugh, daddy poop. And one day this complete, articulate sentence came out of her mouth. I'll never forget it. Two years old, first sentence, she's on my shoulder. We're taking a walk in the park. Mom's standing next to us. She looks over at mom and goes, mommy, daddy lost me at the flea market today. No, I thought I pulled it off, you know, got away with it. It was just for 4 hours. Honey, did you ever lose your kid? Is it like the nightmare of the century? I can't come home empty handed. She'll kick my ass. Come live with us for just a few days. I need her. Get away. Yes, honey, we have toys, we have a. Yes, we had a blood child, honey. Second thing she said almost got me arrested. True story. Almost came to jail. We're in a supermarket and it's just her and me, and I'm picking her up to put her in the shopping cart, and she screams, no, daddy, I climb. So, no, let me pick you up. I climb. Fine, climb. Take all day. I am woman, go. Anyway, she slips, she falls in the shopping cart and starts screaming, oh, daddy made vagina. Jesus Christ. Rub it, rub it. Jesus, no. Buy me some cream. Cream. People are like, watch him, watch him, watch him. They do it on purpose. They know they're like the devil. They know they're cruel. Kids are mean. I was getting my head braces for that. That weird jaw fin, TMJ. I just got him off two weeks ago. There was this eight year old brat sitting next to me getting his braces on. He looks at me and goes, aren't you kind of old to that braces? I said, yeah, maybe, but when I got him on, it was your age. I bet he said, no headgear too. They are cool. My wife, she's after you. My wife's jock and a half. She's a female bodybuilder. Soon to be a male bodybuilder. Pretty big. She's got ripples and she's real strong. As a matter of fact, when our first kid was born, it had bumps to its whole head. Just forced it out. Feel the burn. Very tough. Very macho girl. Man, you guys are great. You guys getting that Elvis letters yet? The stamp with Elvis on it. Remember that other stamp? They didn't use that kind of chunky Elvis. UPS bought it. They're using it for bulk mail. Okay, that was cruel. My wife's a real organic guru girl. She made me get out and buy her this tape the other day. Sounds of the rainforest. Have you heard this tape? An hour and a half, all you hear of is sounds of the rainforest is timber. What are you doing? Then I go out and buy this. Sounds of a humpback whales. That's even better. An hour and a half of this, I'm back going. Pull. It's a political thing. Guys are so crazy. Sacramento, man. Live in San Francisco, we got a lot of homeless problems. You have two choices. If you're out of work in San Francisco, you're either homeless or a mime. You ever heard of something mimes walking around San Francisco? I saw this mime the other day. I think he was drunk or something. He came up to me and he was like, hey, buddy, you want to see me do some mime stuff? I said, you're not supposed to talk. You're a mime. He goes, I'm not very good at it. Oh, you guys are great. I brought my guitar. Now should we do some tunes? Think you guys sing along, you know, it's not a big guitar. It's a starter guitar. You don't just go out and buy a big one. You got to thinking the other day of styles of music. Wouldn't you say that the blues is totally apple pie americana? Nobody can steal the blues, could they? It's ours. Culturally. We have to keep it forever. You see, one day, like, Michael Jackson starts buying it, sells it, like, to India. Gandhi sings the blues. I got that back. My grandma rationalish. Boogie, boogie blue Buddha, buddha babye my petal bra just bit me. I think I'm turning blue. And my elephant. Are you starving, too? Tell me, what should I do? Come on, you guys, jump in. I played a little tune I wrote for my kids. Cute little song to help them go to sleep at night. Because you can't beat him all the time. He's like, I don't hit my kid. His organization's getting real upset about it you can't hit him or you can't even yawn. Case in point. Things have gotten way out of hand. Case in point. Last year, my daughter slipped on the gravel driveway. She bopped her head, her eyeball got this big. Kids fall, right? That's their job. Next day, we're at the store together, an old lady sponsor. She looks at me and goes, hey, mister, what happened to your daughter's face? What can I say? I'm like, well, they gotta learn to listen. Let me live. Anyway, here's the tune. Helps them go to bed. We call it the night. Nice song. One more time. Nine song. Once there was a little girl she could not sleep she tossed and twirled so her daddy brought a monster in now she never leaves her back it works really good. My wife, Miss Demure, she wrote her own verse last month. It goes, uh, don't open the closet door. You might make that monster soar. You'll suck your eyes, rip out your head. No, he wears no underwear. Kids can't take a naked monster for too long. Is that evil? I inherited that evil street from my dad. He used to come to my room when I was a kid. I go, dad, can you shut the closet door before you go? You go, why, Sammy? There's no hand in there. I'm sleeping with you. You pastor. Move over, mom. You big sweatog. It's not his fault. He had, like, a plate in his head. Actually, it was Kaiser. It was a paper pill. I guess. You've been to Kaiser. What seems to be the problem? I had a cold three weeks ago. I'm fine now. How long can you sit in the lobby? A lot of people wonder why nationality is. They can never guess one thing, you crack at it. Go ahead. Armenian. Great. Where else? Portuguese. No. Italian. You'll never guess. I'll tell you what it is. Nobody ever guesses. I'm actually an african jew. It's not funny. It's what we are. We're african Jews. As a matter of fact, my great great grandfather was Kunta Wiesenthal. Famous jewish dancer. Travel a lot. I always worry about my wife. So I get her this can of mace the other day. Mace? You guys have mace here? No. Look at the ingredients in the back of mace. You know what it is? It's just concentrated Cayenne and curry powder. That's all it is. Just be my luck. I'll be in LA, mugged by some hindu guy. I don't care how many spices you throw in here. Reggae music in the reggae. I don't play any. I'm just curious. Let's all learn something jamaican.

Your hair will grow back. Go on, say ganja. Take your head. Go like that. Really? No, your hair will grow back. Take a hit. This is not due at the show. I was at the airport reading this article the other day. Cosmopolitan. It was actually in your favor. And I was flying. I said about being bald, it said being bald headed today was actually considered like a solar panel here. A sex drive. So pretty cool. Too bad it doesn't work at night though, huh? Say a gun jump. Go like that. I was gonna get my dad eye. Go ahead, try. I don't smoke pot anymore. Remember the first time you smoked pot? You didn't even know you were high. You know, I've been smoking pot with you guys for like three weeks. Like, I've done this show for. With this big hand and this little hand. That's all I got. You'd be laughing for hours, going, stop it, mandy. And you're all by yourself. More for me, dude. What was I doing? Well, forget that. How about I teach you some jamaican nursery rhymes?

Only oppression within the power structure. One more, one more. Home. De doom de doom. They sat on a rock, home de dompte had a beep all the king's horses and all the king's men say hey, home, you didn't swing in the wind Mandez. Hi, I'm Tom Bodie from hotel six. Next time you get in a little fight with your old lady and she kicks you out of the house, come on down to motel six. Cause we're always in the shittiest neighborhoods. So you won't have any problems picking up that hooker for the evening. Just tell your thompson we'll leave the red light on for you. I grew up in the Woodstock generation. That was my time. Great time. All my favorite songs are being sold at tv commercials. That's crapola. I'm waiting for Bob Dylan to go commercial. I'll kill myself. One day you'll be watching the tv and Bob will be up there going, Lee, Lady Lee, Lee, cross my orthopedic mattress with new high tension coil springs. Coming. See Neil Young song out. He'll do it. Anything for money. Ten years from now, old man, look at your wife. I'm a wife like you. Prudential. One more. I gotta get out of here. Something you never expect, but Jimmy Page selling out Led Zeppelin. Doing like, maybe a Trojan condominium. It'll happen. There's a condom that glows, has veins and it grows. You figure out there is, I'm out of here. Thank you, guys, for really fun, just having a con. You can see why. Sam was one of the regulars at club Lapse Unlimited. And he did such a great job with his concert opening up for comic magician Harry Anderson. Sam Gutman is a very talented guy. He had some very funny material. And some fun music to go along with it. I know you enjoyed that set. Okay, coming up now I'm going to play back to back. A short set. From a guy that played my club many times. Went on to a fair amount of fame and fortune. Dennis Miller. And a very funny guy. He only played my club once, but he was a northern California standard. Won the San Francisco comedy competition. And a very funny guy back in the mid eighties, Michael Pritchard. So we're going to have two comics back to back here. Michael Pritchard. And coming up right now, let's welcome to the stage Dennis Miller. Nice to be here. So I'm a comedian. That's my job. Now. Jobs are funny. There are no hard, fast rules on making it to the top. But a thumb is you make it to age 35. And your job still involves wearing a name tag. You've probably made a serious vocational error somewhere along the line. Yeah, I'm married. I've been married around nine months. I notice subtle sexual problems creeping into the marriage. My wife's dropping little hints. That everything isn't quite what she would like it to be. For instance, last night I was feeling kind of frisky. I hop into bed, and she's lying there in a shark cage. And I'm banging my snout up against the cage. She's sticking me with that prod. You know, all the guys on the calypso are laughing at me. I don't need that. So now I'm staying out on Long island with friends. I got up early this morning. Had breakfast at the international house of Pancakes. And you know, as soon as you walk into the place, there's that distinct worldwide feel. Huh? I was baffled by the complex international menu, so I just had the flapjack du jour, and, you know, my syrup steward helped me with the selection. I I had a very dry maple. Busy, but never precocious. Now, I'm driving into the show tonight. I stop at a 711. The man in front of me orders a big gulp. Now, do I need 32oz of any fluid? This drink has an undertow. What, do you dock your jet skiing? This thing? I mean, who do they think is that thirsty? I guess this is for the guy who walks right off the surface of the sun directly into the 711. You know, I'm a little parched, habib. Uh, having a depth charge size drink back then. Now they have something called a super big gulp. I can only imagine. They must back a tanker truck up to your house and jam a nozzle down your throat and start irrigating you like some personalized Tennessee Valley authority project. Jackson flew in yesterday from LA. Whenever I travel, I go by plane. I don't trust trains. I never have. Even as a young boy, I was skeptical. I remember those old movies where somebody would get on the train, halfway through the journey, they'd reach up above the window, yank down on that court. You know, I don't think I ever want to be on any form of mass transit where the general public has access to the vehicle's brakes. I'd hate to find out we went off the tracks at 200 miles an hour because Gus thought he saw a woodchuck. I guess the big story in New York is Bernard Goetz has finally gone to New York. Subway vigilante shoots four kids because they ask him for dollar five. You know, I'm not a legal expert. I don't know if this man's guilty or innocent, but I can pretty well guarantee none of his friends are going to be bumming money off him in the near future. I'd say Bernie's just a little tense, huh? You don't want to ask this cat to go Dutch, huh? You know, I saw in the news last night, unbelievable. Walter Mondale finally resurfacing after a bad, bad political defeat. You know, it's been a while. I don't remember the final count, but I know when I went to bed, Reagan had 598 electoral votes, Mondale had three, which, if you think about it, is only three more than I had. And I didn't even run. You know, thank you for bordering on applause, but, you know, this guy spent $20 million and I almost tied him, so that's got to hurt. So Reagan's. Reagan's our president. Reagan's a nice man, good leader. He's getting up there, though. Got to keep an eye on him. I think when a man gets to be 70, we ought to start voting on him at the end of each. Week. Every Sunday night, do it over the telephone like MTV. Fifty cents a call. You want Reagan? You want David Lee Roth? Let the people spit. You realize at the end of this next term, Reagan will be 77 years old. 77, and has access to the button. You know, my grandfather's 77. We won't let him use the remote control for the tv set. Hi, good to see all of you. You know, it's funny, I am one of those guys, I guess, what you refer to as a Peter Pan. I guess I never grew up, you know, and my mom used to get mad at me for things I used to do, you know, I used to do all kinds of wacky things, you know. She'd say, oh, for God's sake, don't make that face like that. Someday your face is going to freeze that way. And I used to do these frog faces at her. I like walking up behind tourists, you know, in San Francisco and barking at them, you know. Hey, Tom, where do you want to have lunch today? I don't know, Fred, where do you want to have lunch? I like walking up and going. What'S wrong with you? Nothing. It's okay for me to do this. This is San Francisco. I like. Personally, I like getting pulled over by the police. It's lovely, you know. Police. Step out of the car, please. I always get out of the car like this. We are the ones from wack ulti farm. We didn't need to do any home. We will only be having fun. So we go, each and every one. Get back in the car, please. It's great to be able to do those kind of things, you know. You can do those, I guess, just about anywhere you want. You know, I. I do them around little kids all the time. I like to have fun with little kids, you know, I goof around and play games and stuff. And there are lots of different types of kids I like to play with, you know, they come over to my house all the time. They, hey, Mike, you go around. I came from a family of big guys, and we used to all love to play with kids, you know. My brothers were strange, you know. I still love to get my brothers arrested by the police, you know, we'd be pulling out. I'd see a police car on the side. I'd yank my handkerchief out of my back pocket, tied around my mouth, put my hands behind my back, and beat my face. The window just as we passed the police car. Help me. Help me. Another car. Don't move. Oh, whoa, man. That's my brother, man. We're just fooling around. It's okay. No, shoot him. Shoot him. But, you know, we do those goofy things, you know. And I like going down when we go out, my brothers and I, we like to goof around and play games and stuff, you know. We were kids that never grew up. I love little kids. They come over the house, you know. Let'S go out and play. You ever go out with little kids, though? What gets me is you ever see this when you're chasing after them? They go. All over the world. Children do that. Where does that come from? I know maternity awards all over the world. They play it just as the children are born, you know, Germany, they play. In Sweden, it's nyr nyar nyr nyuh nyeh. In England, it's. Little chicano kids in my neighborhood, golf. I love doing that stuff, though, you know. Little kids, you know, we go down the park, won't be playin around. Little kids, they don't like to play guns with me, though. That's what gets me to, you know, they'll go, hey, my poor are gonna play guns. Get out of. Zing, zing. Can't even beat me at cowboys and Indians. Cause I always go, hell, no. Second. These little kids stand there going, you know, I go running down the park all the time, you know, and I see kids from juvenile hall. They're always over there smoking funny stuff in the bushes, you know. They see me running by. I'm doing normal things, you know, things. Like. Oh, you're biting to have done it Again. You know, they see me out there, these kids from juvenile, you know, there's something wrong with that preacher dude, man. I mean, the lights are on, man. Nobody's Home, man. Somebody blew the dots off his dice, man. You know, I love the little Three year olds, and, you know, like, scaring them. I'm gonna eat your face. No, no, no, Mike, no, no, no, no. Unfortunately, they've wet their pants. At that point, I was like, little fat kIds, too. You ever see them grape kool aid stains here? Dried mannings on the front of their shirts, little belly buttons that stick out? You can always hear them coming up behind you because they got corduroy pants on. Wait, up, mom. My crotch is starting to catch you on fire. Thanks very much. You've had a great audience. Michael Pritchard was so funny. He had such a great way with the audience. And he had a great personality. He was kind of always perpetually young. He was really good with children. In fact, he left comedy to work with children back in the late eighties, early nineties. Very talented comic, though. That was Michael Prichard before him. We had a fun short set by Dennis Miller. I know you recognize the name. He had his own show, the Dennis Miller show, and has done a lot on tv. But that was Dennis Miller, Michael Pritchard. And it was so great to be able to work with those guys and know those guys back in the day. Okay, our short closing set is coming from the guy that actually inaugurated my club. He was the very first headliner in August of 1980 when I opened laughs Unlimited, by the way. As a reminder, the opening act making $100 for the week was Gary shanling at his first road gig out of Arizona. The show was Gary Shandling, a comic magician named Peter de Paula. And then the headliner, George Wallace, a really funny guy. He had his own theater in Las Vegas for over a decade. Let's hear a little bit of his comedy. Ladies and gentlemen, George Wallace. Hello. Good evening. Good evening. How you doing? That's great. That's what we're here for, to have a good time. Greetings from New York City. You ever notice you mentioned New York City or Chicago? People always applause. How about a hand for the great people right here in the state of California? That's it. Ask it. Because you people are the people I want to talk to. Why do you people drive so fast? Where's everybody going in such a hurry? Everybody's going zoom, zoom, like a bat out of hell. There's a game out here. You people play cuss. You got hand signals and everything. And you all like to play this game. That's why you all live 50 miles from where you work, just so you can play the game. Now, I don't believe in drugs, but I do think there should be a pharmacist on every unwrap to give you suckers two Valium just to calm you down before you get on that tour. Everybody's driving like crazy. One thing you got in California we don't have back in New York. Put your foot on the street, everybody stops for you. What a lot. Put your foot on this. That thing fascinates me sometimes. For the hell of it, I just go, now you try that in New York, your head would be a hood on him. Can you picture my head on a white Rolls Royce? And Rose. I have never seen so many rose mercedes porsches in my life. Gas guzzlers. We've got to get rid of these gas guzzlers. What? We are disposable cars. We need baked cars. Gillette cars. Drive them around for two weeks, they run out of gas, throw them away. Matter of fact, everything should be disposable, right? We should even have disposable girlfriend and boyfriend. Use it once, get rid of them. Just like in real life. Crazy world, isn't it? Crazy world. And I got my driver's license not too long ago. Out here. Crazy questions on the test. Question 14. You took the test. It says, if an old man is walking across the street, what do you do? A, swerve. B, apply brakes. C. Teach him a lesson. It's crazy world. And you know what? I thought all the freaks lived in New York City. You got some freaks right here in California. Especially in Hollywood. Everybody's a freak in Hollywood. Even the doctors are freakish in Hollywood. You ever go to a doctor in Hollywood? He gives you a shot, gives himself one, too, huh? They're all freakers. They're all freaks. Even the churches are freakers. I went to one church that had six commandments and four. Do the best you can. I don't even want to mention the freakish L. A. Cops. Did you read last month where the cops shot this man and killed him? Then the cops said it was in self defense because the man was on his way home to get a gun. They're all freaks. Now, don't misunderstand me. Now. We still have some freaks back in New York. Yes, we do. A freak came up to me last week in Central park and put a gun right to my head. He says, who are you for, Reagan or Carter? I thought about it for a minute. I said, go ahead and shoot a. It's all crazy. Will, here's two good friends. Tonight is kind of special. The beer that we pour must say something more. So tonight. Tonight, let it be low in brown. Don't you like that commercial? Especially when the guy walks up. He says, I'll have a steak and lowen brow. And the father says, son, what's the occasion? He says, I'm buying dinner for the man who put me through college. I did the same thing. I walked up, I said, I'll have a chili dog and a bottle of ripple. My father said, son, what's your occasion? I says, I'm buying dinner for the man who told me to quit high school. There is a ripple. You know, when.

I'm walking the streets of Beverly Hills at 03: 35:44

00 in the morning and the cops pull a gun on me, my teeth have got to be their whitest. It's a crazy world. You don't know when

Beverly Hills and you walk the street, 03: 36:03

00 in the morning, cops be all down in your pants going, I know you got a television on you some way. It's a crazy. So many crazy things. I just flew out here on one of those discount airlines, $99. Now, with a fare like that, you know, they cutting back on something. First of all, you gotta bring your own toilet paper. You see, the airline doesn't have a schedule. It just wasted, like, two or 300 people get together and they say, uh, where you going, mister? Chicago. Go ahead and get on. How about you, mister? Where you going? Cleveland. Go ahead. You know, we don't stop, but we'll push you off. Go ahead. Go ahead. And we're flying along for about 2 hours. The pilot comes back, wakes me up, tell me it's my turn to fly the plane. I'm going, what do you mean, my turn to fly the plane? He says, with a fail, everybody's got to take turns flying the plane. I said, what about that blind guy over there? He says, don't worry about him. He already flew his two out. I hate these discount airlines. You see, they not only lose luggage, they lose passengers. I heard the man explaining, listen, I know your mother was on this flight, but these things happen, so you just have to file a claim. Then he took out a little chart and said, did she look like any of these other mothers here? Say, was she a new bag on old bag? I hate these cheap discount airlines. I flew one about three months ago up to Tahoe. I'm up there at Sahara hotel, 1800 people in the room still snowing. Believe it or nothing. I asked a question. Anybody ski today? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we ski. We ski. Some dumb in the audience stands up, shouts out, how come you don't see more black people skiing? I told him, hell, I guess it's hard to ski with a pole in one hand and a radio in another, you know? Oh, man, that brings back memories. George Wallace was always a high energy, fun guy that provided good, clean material and always entertain the audiences. And he ended up being quite a celebrity in Las Vegas. And to have him as the first headliner ever to work my club was a real honor. He did come back and work several more times. But that first show in August of 1980 was a big deal to me, and I always appreciated George and his advice. By the way, I met George Wallace through my friends Dave Coulier and Bob Saget, and it was just incredible how they helped me get the club started, and introducing me to George was a whole part of that history.
