How's -- Where are you? Is everyone safe?

So since the show pretty much took a hiatus.

I mean, dude, that was -- How did that show come together?

-I mean, through, you know, a bunch of brilliant minds

and the same thing that we're doing, you know,

everybody kind of took it upon themselves,

They had, like, amazing pre-taped things that they did

And Kate and Aidy did, you know, some awesome things.

And then, the rest of the cast did their, you know,

versions of Zoom sketches and stuff like that.

And, you know, wonderful tribute to Hal, you know?

-Aww. Isn't that sad? It was awful, wasn't it?

You never expect anything like that, so...

-Yeah, man. I mean, anytime he would come up to you,

You heard of this person and that person?"

and I should have heard of but I never have.

And then, you know, I think the first thing he shared with me,

-Yeah! Because he did that big Lenny Bruce box set.

He was always -- he's just one of those guys,

I was trying to describe him to my friend the other day.

I go, "But then..." "Worldly" is the wrong word.

-Yeah, absolutely. I was just about to say.

It's, like, not worldly, he's, like, New Yorky.

-Yes. He might be the last New Yorker that I've ever --

I would always love to run into Hal Willner.

come up and be like, "Jimmy, I just got this cool

Harry Nilsson thing that's --" And he's just --

And then he would play me a clip or something --

Everyone loved running into him and seeing him

and just -- I just -- I was truly shocked.

-I can't even imagine having that much of an encyclopedia

to, like, pull from. And those pictures of him

vinyl and books and everything, and toys and puppets.

Just, like, a guy immersed in very interesting things, man.

He was awesome. -When you did your sketches

for the show, were you wearing a blanket, or what was it?

-Yeah, I mean, I got to do what I got to --

I'm not used to performing in the house much, I guess.

-Yeah, she shot my tribute video and my montage,

my opening montage where I'm, like, taking out the trash.

She would cut me off in the middle of takes

and stuff like that and just be like, "Okay..."

I was like, "All right. I guess I'll just start over."

Supposed to be, like, a note after a take type of thing,

my wife's been directing me in all these ones.

And the other day, she's, you know, holding the camera up,

You know, I'm doing some story about something, and she goes --

I go -- "What was that? What, am I boring or what?

-She goes, "No, what? What are you talking --"

She's like, "I was just stretching my neck, that's all."

You can't be the camera person and go like..."

-Yeah, yeah. You just -- you wreck the tape.
