- Like your actual urine?

- Pissed in a cup and swallowed it.

(upbeat music)

- Hey guys, welcome to Stir Crazy.

The show that a global pandemic willed into existence.

My guest today is an actor,

comedian, and the next host of the Ellen DeGeneres Show.

It's the host of the Eric Andre Show, Eric Andre.

- What's up

- (laughs) That's what the kids say now, right?

Wassup?

- How are you at me?

Me likey.

- Me likey seeing you, sir.

I'm relieved that I feel

like you're Pavlovian response.

When you hear it's the Eric Andre Show

should be to destroy things,

but you're not doing that.

Thank you.

- No, I'm off the clock.

I'm very old now.

The show aged me.

- By the way, is this your apartment?

Your apartment looks remarkably like

a coffee shop in Los Angeles.

- I'm going to get my bathroom redone

so I'm like homeless during the day.

I'm a wanderer.

I'm a drifter.

I'm a loner.

Dottie a rebel.

Get a bio danke schoen.

Alone from night to night, ya find me?

Damn.

Papa's got a brand new bag. (chuckles)

- Oh no.

The meds have kicked in or they've run out?

What happened?

(both laugh)

- The SSRIs are long gone.

- I hear you've been making

a lot of cocktails in quarantine.

I've got my stash here.

Can you walk me through making

a delicious-- - Well what do ya got?

What ingredients you got?

(upbeat music)

- I got some mescal here.

I got some tequila, juices.

I got orange and grapefruit.

I got some limes.

I got gin, whiskey, campari, vodka.

- You can make a Paloma.

Do you have a jigger?

- [Host] I don't have a jigger.

I'm a novice man.

- Two ounces of tequila.

1.25 ounces of grapefruit juice.

We'll do 0.75 lime.

0.75 simple syrup.

- [Host] Any Bailey's?

I've got Bailey's here.

Should I add that to it?

- No, Bailey's necessary.

No gold Schlagger.

Club soda.

- Are you a happy drunk or an angry drunk?

What kind of a drunk are you?

- I'd say rum, happy drunk,

tequila, crazy drunk.

Vodka regular drunk,

whiskey angry drunk.

- Do you ever drink

while doing the Eric Andre Show

or is that a bad idea?

- No, just coffee.

On top of all the tensions.

My lips I'm off the clock.

I need the stress and anxiety

of my own Judaism boiling my brain

against my skull

or I'm not gonna

get anything done. - Right.

This is an exclusive, Eric.

This is our very first cooking segment.

- Put a garnish on there,

but like a lime wheel

or a grapefruit wedge.

Like a very thin, it should be able to float.

You drink with your eyes first they say.

You drink with your butt hole second.

You know what I mean?

(laughs) George Washington once said.

(man laughs)

In there.

How does it taste?

- That's like a Paloma.

From one talk show host to another,

I'm always looking for advice.

- I don't know (chuckles) if I have any good advice.

- Is making your guests feel comfortable--

- Is my ear pod thing over there?

- [Woman] What?

- Is my ear pod case over there?

- Have you been robbed?

What just happened?

Somebody.

- I got a hell's angel biker gang

all around me right now.

- (laughs) Is making

your guests-- - So what's your ad--

Uncomfortable?

- Well I was gonna say

is making your guests comfortable overrated

for a talk show host?

'Cause it doesn't seem.

Yeah. (laughs)

Congrats.

- The right thing to do

is make them comfortable.

So my approach is

to do everything wrong.

- Is there a good ice breaker question

to warm up a guest?

- Our icebreakers this year was just...

Have you ever done coke?

And the guests would never want

to answer that on camera.

Another icebreaker would be.

Who would you rather (beeps) your mom or your dad?

(man laughs)

- Right?

Because everybody knows that answer already.

So you've got it at your fingertips.

- The truth is out there already.

I'm at a live coffee shop.

- Yeah, no mask up, man.

This is a PSA.

What's on the mask?

Oprah.

Oprah.

Oh yeah.

The inspiration for the Eric Andre Show.

Have you ever tried to get Oprah on the show?

- She always wants to do it

and we just don't have the time

to slot her in.

- Right, right.

(both laughs)

You slotted in Lorenzo Lamas

because you wanted him instead of Oprah.

- No, I wish.

- I know we're outside already,

but I'd like to get some air on myself.

I'm cooped up in my New York apartment.

Would you indulge me?

Can we go outside?

- Sure, let's do it.

(upbeat music)

- Oh, look at this.

Is this your house?

What's that?

- No, it's a house.

It's a block away.

- How many people you think have been murdered there?

- I don't think you're committing fully to this bit.

I don't think.

- Me (laughs)?

- You're only like

half in the premise.

You guys did not flesh this out.

(man laughs)

I have notes and they're like,

all your act out is just like general Jew,

which is hovering.

Speakin' of Jews.

Here's a world war II beach.

(both laugh)

- We queued that up just for you.
