What's up guys, welcome back to Views. We are back. I'm so happy to be here with Jason. It's just, it's so nice to see him. He's so fresh and good looking today.
What would we do without you, Dave?
Oh, without my constant compliments?
Yeah, I appreciate that. It means a lot coming from you.
I think Jay, you'd be good without me. I think Natalie would be fucked.
Please.
I think Natalie wouldn't have any will to live. Have you ever seen like when a samurai is just defeated and he has so much shame that he takes a sword and he ends his own life?
She'd die on her own sword? Do you think that's what she'd do if you died?
Yeah, because I have— when we went to the Gladiator premiere, I got a couple like swords, and I feel like that would be Natalie's way of showing me respect if I passed.
I don't think so, actually. I think I'd probably thrive in your absence.
You have this whole philosophy that I'm your captor and once I disappear, life will just open up and it'll be butterflies. But just know when I die, and I will die soon. That's a threat. Your life will be very, very difficult.
Wait, wait. No, I'll be sad. I'll be sad for sure.
Planning to die?
Who do you think is going to go first, me or you?
I don't know, man. At your rate, I don't know what will happen.
My rate, Jay? Come on, dude. I nap 8 hours a day now. If anything, I'm gonna lift to 150 with the rate I'm going.
I don't think so. I think you're not, you're gonna go back in your sedentary ways. You were on a good clip. I was really proud of you for the last year, but I'm watching the devolution, is that a word? Of your whole thing. I can see it coming back already.
Oh no, no, no, no, I'm not going back.
You're not going back?
No, no, no.
Okay, all right. I saw some In-N-Out last night.
That was because I burned 1,400 calories at pickleball. So like I need to, You need to fill it up.
Fill up the tank.
No, honestly, there's no excuse for me having it now. Yeah, you're right. I am making some moves that may seem like I'm reverting, but I'm going to— that's the worst part about being fit, right? Is like, now I have to do it. And all the DMs I get are like, every time I'm eating food, someone's DMing me like, don't do it, Dave. And they're not even being funny. They're just like, so disappointed in me for having a cheat meal that it genuinely hurts and irks my insides. So I totally get it. I want to talk about this. Before we talk about anything, because I'm really scared of this getting out in a way that's not from me, so I want to hit it head on. No, it's not controversial. I just made it sound pretty controversial. Have you ever heard of the Foodie Boys?
Yeah.
You know them?
Yeah, the podcasters?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
They're like what, 16-year-old boys, 15-year-old.
Yeah, yeah.
They're in high school and all they talk about is food.
Right.
Like school lunches. They're in Maryland.
Yeah.
And I really wanted to be on the pod.
Yeah.
And I was like, this would be fun.
That's right in your wheelhouse.
Totally.
Lunchables.
Yeah, okay, so like—
We're talking PB&J, Lunchables.
Yeah, imagine 15, 16-year-old boys that are like, you like pepperoni on your pizza? And then the other boy goes, I don't know, I feel like just cheese is kind of the way to go. And that's what the podcast is. It's fucking incredible. I mean, it's top-notch shit. So I wanted to— I really wanted to be on. I said this to Natalie and I was like, I fucking love this. They're in Maryland.
Yeah.
So there was a moment that we were going to be in the area, so I was going to stop by.
Yeah.
But I don't think I can do it as of now. I may do it in the future and I want to be like a surprise on it. I don't want to be like, I don't want to be like, we're having David on. I just want to like pop into like a random conversation.
Sure.
Like, I just want to appear. They're talking about— yeah, they're talking about celery sticks and I'm like, nah, I'm not a vegetable guy.
Who's the booker?
Well, this is why I wanted to talk about this is because I told Natalie and Megan, I'm like, please treat this as if it's any serious opportunity. So email them and say that David is interested. What's the fee and how much to— and will you put him up in a hotel and will you fly him out?
What's the travel stipend?
What's the travel stipend? And obviously I'm kidding, but now that I'm not doing it, I can't explain that to them. So I'm scared that in like 6 months, if I never talk about this, They're gonna be like, yeah, we almost had him on the show, but like, we wouldn't pay for his travel. They're 15 years old and their manager's probably one of their parents.
He wanted $75 grand.
Yeah, but like I told Natalie and Megan, I'm like, treat this like it's fucking Jay Leno. Like, like treat this like really seriously and like want to be flown out first class, everything. Like just as a joke, 'cause I wanted to see what the emails would be. But what did they respond?
Natalie or Megan, my publicist was like, I don't, yeah, we don't know who's responding. Like it, it must be like a fa— like an older brother. It sounds like an older brother. 'Cause they don't, they don't sound like, mature enough to be an adult, but they're also not young enough to be like 14. Um, so I'm not sure who's responding, but they're just like, you know, uh, we're an early— we're a young show, so we don't really have like the budget for that at the moment. But we'd love to have David.
So bad when that response came because I was like, fuck, like if I don't get over there, which I don't think I can in like the next couple weeks, these guys are literally gonna think that I just fucking bailed on this because I couldn't buy a flight to Maryland.
Why would you think that they could get that joke? No one's going to get that joke.
I just wanted to like—
People see you as like a huge star.
I mean, the whole podcast is like, it's very highbrow. Like, it's like people treat it as like, this was a very good discussion about pepperoni pizza. And like, that's how I look at it too. There's no better perspective on food than a younger person. So I do really think the stuff that they're talking about is revolutionary. Like, I think young kids like that should always have a podcast because their minds work so much better than like old, decrepit, fucking boring black and white minds. Sorry, sorry. But yeah, no, I just wanted to— I wanted to address that in case—
and the Foodie Boys controversy 2025.
Well, I wanted to jump ahead in case they expose me.
Oh no.
In 3 months, they're like, fuck this guy. He wanted money. I love you, Foodie Boys. I really— I'm good. Next time I'm on the East Coast, I'm going to try to stop by. Natalie did the most fucked up thing yesterday.
What?
So I don't check my bank accounts ever. I have no idea how much money's in them. And like, I do that on purpose. I just don't want to know.
Yeah.
Like once in a while I'll be making like a big purchase or like something will happen where I'll need to know how much money I have in my pocket or in my bank account. And this happened. There was a big purchase that needed to be made. So I was like, Natalie, tell me how much money I have. And Natalie, and every time I talk to my accountant, Anybody, I'm like, make sure to tell me the lowest amount of money I have, like after taxes, everything. Like, don't give me a high fucking number, whatever. And I'm going to use fake numbers here.
Sure.
But it's the same percentage of difference.
Okay.
So I was like, how much money do I have in my bank account? Please tell me. And Natalie goes, you have— you have $20 million, right? And I go, what? I go, that's fucking incredible.
You were— you were Pleased.
That's insane.
Pleasantly surprised.
Pleasantly surprised.
Right.
And then I check and I'm like, give me that, give me that. And then I add all the numbers together and she accidentally doubled one of the numbers in one of the accounts. My bad. Like completely doubled my income. And I was like, dude. And what sucks about that is, what sucks about that is, is for those, obviously for those 2 minutes that I believed I had that money, I did have that much money. Yeah. So it really was like, once I found out she just stole $10 million from me. Like, that's what it felt like in my soul. I was like, you just fucked me of $10 million or whatever the actual number was.
It wasn't like he was walking around for like a week thinking he had all this money. It was like literally 30 seconds.
Yeah. But that was my only reality I knew when it came to my finances and it was crushed within 30 seconds. Like, I don't care if you lowball me, like tell me I have hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars left. Like lowball me as low as you can. But never, never tell me I have more. That like really fucked me up.
And like now I've been like, well, now I'm going to tell him he has nothing all the time.
Yeah, she also says that to me too. She, she, she like, she'll be like, David, you know you don't, don't have that much money. And then whenever she wants to buy something, she's like, you can afford this. So like, so I genuinely don't know how much money I have ever, which is kind of a good thing, cuz like then I'm not like spending like crazy.
It's a It's a manipulation tactic. So he has to think twice about the expensive purchase.
Yeah, yeah. But it's like I'm buying a painting. She's like, you should really like cool it on the paintings. But then when we want to upgrade our room in Vegas to like a $5,000 a night room, she's like, you have the money for this, David. So it really is like wherever she can benefit from it, she's good.
But when are you going to step up and be your own person and know how much money you have? And do you know what I mean? I think there's a—
See, I don't like this. When are you going to do this? Natalie hits me with this, like, when are you gonna be more mature type of conversation, which I totally respect. And there are aspects of my life that I can mature on and I am working on them. Totally.
Are you working on them?
No.
And, um, cause I don't see any progress.
Right, right. Good, good, good. Um, but I think Natalie's actually come around to this idea before, but she used to be like really weird about it. She, she was always like, when are you gonna grow up? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I'd be like, well, Natalie, if I ever did what you told me to, like grow up, like we would not be here. Like the only reason we are here in this house and getting to do this job is because very luckily I'm an idiot and I pursued something that was pretty wacky and stupid and it has the perks of being immature. Like you get rewarded for being—
I don't think those two things are connected.
A little more, well, to me it did.
Sure, sure, but that's in the past. That's awesome that you followed your gut and you made videos and it worked out. That's awesome. But I'm saying like, you know, you want a girlfriend, you need to know how much money is in your account. You wanna improve your relationship with your—
I was pivoting a little bit.
Okay, go ahead, pivot.
Well, no, I was just pivoting. Natalie recently, she actually said that. She's like, you know, I wish you just grew up. And then she like cut herself off. She's like, I understand, I understand. If you did grow up too early, we wouldn't be here. And I was like, wow, nice, Natalie. But yeah, no, I get it. I get it. I get it. Oh, dude, I went to that nightclub opening, Zouk. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't have much to say about it, but I got paparazzi right outside of it.
Yeah.
Fuck. I fucking hate this shit. I was leaving it. This guy left them. He made the nastiest post about me. I don't know if he was being funny or not, but I mean, I find it funny, whatever, because I like reading this kind of stuff. But we left the club at like 2 a.m. because that's when it was closing. Yeah, but the club, the club owner was like, where are you going? Like, I'm gonna have this private, like, after-party here. Yeah. And I was like to Natalie, I was like, well, we can't, we can't leave. Natalie was already in the Uber. She's like, get in the fucking Uber. And I was like, Natalie, like, we can't leave this guy here. Like, this is his big night, right? Like, you— it's like his birthday, right?
It's—
he's been working on this club for 3 years. Like, let's go, we're gonna get back in the club. He was very drunk, the club owner, at this time. And we were walking back into the club, and the bouncer, like, doesn't recognize me and doesn't see that I'm with the owner. And he's like, nope, no more people, which is arguably, like, which is correct because it's 2 o'clock. It's like 1:54 now. So like they're not letting people in anymore.
Yeah.
And then the owner starts yelling, no, fuck that, we're going back in.
Oh no.
And then he finally recognizes him. But at the moment where this guy doesn't let us in, the paparazzi turns on his camera and he's like, you can't get in, David. No one knows you. No one knows you. You can't get in. It was really funny. So for like 8 seconds, that's what's happening. No one knows you, David. No one knows you. And you hear the, yes you can. And that's like the owner of the club, but he's just trying to like manage like the, like, cause the employees like we're closing and he doesn't know he's there. And he also doesn't want like the paparazzi to get like this like shot.
Yeah.
The paparazzi titled the video. He titled it Mr. Hashtag Ozempic. I'm just a chill guy, David Dobrik. I got the most whack ass pizza and artificial clout was not allowed entry into the club.
So crazy.
Really funny. And then someone commented, I'm confused, what did he do to get clowned? And then the guy responded, LMAO, I'm just trolling. Lol, body kid, the security guard didn't know him, I guess, and didn't let him in. Oh wow. So I guess he was just kind of goofing around. It's a really funny caption though. I also, right before we got on the pod, Jay.
Yeah.
Because I know you want to be the number one podcast in the world.
Yeah, I'm dying to.
And we're not damn far. So I had, I ChatGPT'd what topics to discuss to make your podcast the best on the internet.
Okay.
So there's obviously there's 10 different things, so I'm just gonna blaze through them and you give me your opinion on everything.
Okay.
Pop culture and current events. Okay, so example: the internet's latest obsession explained, or like a celebrity you have beef with, or is there anything that you want to talk about that's in pop culture and current events? Hit it, go.
Oh damn.
Who's like an artist you're following currently?
Bob Dylan.
Okay, there go 25 points.
I love the Dylan movie.
Oh, really? With Timmy Chalamet?
Did you watch it?
Yeah.
Oh, it's excellent.
What do you think about Timmy and Kylie Jenner?
I was so curious about that relationship because when it seems like he's trying to be taken very seriously as an actor, you know, and she's more on the fun side. You know what I mean? She's not an actor.
She's a reality star.
She's a reality star. And I wondered if there was like a chasm there between the two of them, if there was a stress on their relationship.
I don't know, I could kind of see what you're saying.
They look cute together.
I mean, I think that's everybody's thought, right?
It's like, but like, that's why it's so good.
Yeah, that's what— that's also why it works.
I think it's so fun.
They had a terrible moment at the Golden Globes where Demi Moore went up and said hi to him and she snubbed Kylie. And allegedly— well, but then, then Demi Moore listens to this pod, so— because she does. Hi, Demi.
Hi, Demi. You're really fucked up for what you did, by the way.
And then she wrote a— she wrote a letter after. She was like, yeah, she's like, you know Demi didn't, uh, Demi's a serious actress. And it was kind of like a snide letter, like, wait, wait, wait, wait, what?
Wait, who wrote the letter?
Jay, if you're falling for fucking AI—
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not. I read it, look it up, look it up.
Who wrote a letter?
Demi did. She responded to like what people were saying about the fact that she snubbed her, and the response was kind of like, eh.
Oh, Demi admitted to it?
It was like a double snub almost. That's how I read it.
Oh, okay, we got to look this up. This is one of those situations.
This is one of those situations where you definitely are falling for AI.
Okay, look it up, look it up. Maybe if this is the third time I fall for AI, I'll put the microphone down.
A letter from Demi. I was gonna go rizz up Timmy Chalamet. I thought you're like, and Demi was like trying to be—
there's literally no— there's no— there's no apology to Kylie.
It was an apology. It's like her publicist responded.
Okay, that's already different than what you said. You said a letter. JJ, what? Listen, if you want to be the top podcast in the world—
yeah, I'm dying to.
Yeah, but if we're gonna be discussing pop culture—
video, first of all.
No, Jack Reader, my old manager, sent me saying that Gen Z doesn't like video podcasts.
Oh really? Yeah, nobody said fuck.
Yeah, I fucking hate video.
That's, that's strange. Why are people turning out with millions and millions of views?
Okay, personal stories and life experiences is number 2. This one's easy. This is what we do all the time. There's an example that says the most awkward date of my life.
All right.
I went to a party once. It was a big celebrity, uh, big celebrity's party. Yeah. And I went with— this was when I was really young. This is when I was like 18 or 19. And I went with one of my model, like, girlfriends.
Yeah.
Um, and I—
sorry, at 18 or 19 you were just hanging with the models?
Yes. Wow.
No, it's not like that, Natalie.
I'm not trying to hide myself up here. No, no, but she, she was a model.
Yeah.
And I only say this because she was out of my league, and it's obvious as the story progresses. But we got to the house and, you know, the night went on, great time. I was drunk, ended up passing out on his couch, and she had sex with him. So I guess that's kind of—
she—
that's your most awkward story?
I mean, is that not awkward if you take someone to a party with you and you fall asleep on the guy's couch and she's hooking up with him? What are you fucking talking about? That's like a normal thing for you.
No, no, but that's like, not like— that's not like that intrinsically embarrassing or you're like crippled, like where you can't move, you're so embarrassed. Like, that's what I was looking for.
Really? Did you wake up the next day?
Yeah. Like, like, I'll tell you mine.
Okay, go.
Okay. In middle school, I had broken my foot and I had— I had to crutch to school every day.
Yeah.
And so I crutch to school in the snow. And you know, like when you come in the front doors, everybody's waiting right there in the common area to then go into their classrooms for the day, but they make all the kids wait. And I walked in the front door and it was tile with my wet crutch and it just slipped out from under me in front of the entire school is sitting there in the morning in middle school. And I wiped out on my crutch and this guy had to come and help me get up and it was very embarrassing and everybody stared and everyone got quiet.
Like that's like, are you fucking serious?
What?
Wait, you're comparing that to like the girl I'm with having sex with somebody? Wait, what?
Oh, you're like with her?
Yeah, we went to the party together, like we were hooking up.
Oh, okay, okay.
Who's old now, Natalie?
What the fuck was that? Did you really just— I couldn't wait. Sorry, I couldn't sleep for 2 months. What the fuck was that? You tripped? Oh wait, because it was icy out. It's embarrassing.
It was an embarrassing story. She heard embarrassing.
I understand, but did you see her? She's like, shut up, I'm gonna fucking triple top this. What the fuck was that?
There was It was like cliché embarrassing.
You're—
I didn't realize you were dating this girl and then she hooked up with somebody. Yeah, that's, that was definitely awkward.
But we were hooking up, like we were— like we went to the party together because we were kissing.
Okay, thank you.
Well, that was a key detail.
No, I didn't watch them have sex, but you fell asleep and they went and had sex.
And I had— yeah, and I was woken up in the morning because she needed to go home and we drove home together.
And you asked her?
Obviously you guys were not seeing each other in any capacity.
We went Yes, we were not dating. We weren't boyfriend and girlfriend.
Somebody is lying. There's a hole in this story, and I feel like it's coming from you thinking that you were dating a model at 18.
No, I wasn't dating her. We were just kissing.
I was dating a girl once. She was pretty pretty, and I took her to a party, and it was a party with a lot of comedy people, like big-time comedy people, and I wasn't a big-time comedy person, obviously, but she—
That's the scariest, by the way.
What is? Big-time comedy people are so scary.
Yeah, I feel like—
They're the worst.
I feel like especially taking your girl there when you're a little bit insecure insecure?
Yep.
Because like, I feel like a comedian can like easily start attacking your girlfriend and like with like charm bombs.
Yes.
And just like try to charm.
And that's exactly what happened. I'm there with her, you know, we were dating and she—
dating or kissing? Uh, we, we, we, we— I just want to know where to put the story. Is it between— is it between dating or is it between falling on ice? How good is the story?
Kissing and dating. She got really drunk and she spent the entire night talking to Conan O'Brien. Oh, dude. That's a good one. They were locked in. He wasn't married at the time. He was single, obviously.
Dude, that's amazing.
And they were locked. They were locked eye to eye and they talked forever. And I would come up to the table like, uh—
Wow.
And then I took her home and I realized she was really drunk. And she's like in the car, like so, so, so drunk. And I remember I took her out of the car to drop her off. I planted her to the side of the car on my car, like took her out of the passenger, put her on the side of the car, and then went to get her bag. And in that time she fell over.
Oh, Jesus.
She fell over like right into the gutter.
Oh.
Yeah. So I was like, that's what you get.
Hey, Jesus Christ.
Real turn.
That's what you get. Wait, she was flirting with Conan O'Brien?
Yeah. And they were locked in and there was nothing I could do.
Damn, that's the worst.
I've had so many big fails with comedians I admire.
Give us another one.
Larry David.
Oh, what happened with Larry David?
Terrible.
Wait, what happened?
Marnie brought me to a party. It was like an Emmy party. And I'm like there. I don't know anybody. And I turn around and Larry David's standing there by himself. And I was just like—
This is your moment?
Yeah. And I was like, uh, hi. Hi. He's like, oh, and then I was like, I was like, oh my God. I'm like, I fucking love the show so much. And you could just tell he was just like, don't talk to me. It was awful.
You are— you are— you don't like hearing this. Every time I say this, you like get really defensive. Yeah, but you get really awkward around celebrities.
Yeah, I get really awkward.
Oh, okay. You admit this time?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm not awkward because like when we, when we would film things with celebs, you definitely warm up. But like initially you're like, it's not even nervous. You're just like awkward. And I get so confused because you have this whole like shtick about you that's like, fuck celebrities. I've been living here 4,500 years. Right. But then when they show up, you're like, actually, you like love them.
Which one did I do that to?
I don't know. I'm trying to— do you remember any like that he like kind of just like panicked around? Well, who have we filmed with that like made you nervous?
Steve-O? Steve-O? Yeah.
That was the best.
He was great.
That was amazing. That first time we filmed with him and we— remember, remember it was the dry ice thing? Mm-hmm. That was fucking crazy.
I was just kind of in awe of what he could do, but he shared— he actually shared an intimate moment with me once that I loved.
What'd he say?
He said he was about to jump off a roof.
Yeah, okay.
He's about to jump off a roof for one of your videos. Yeah, this is fucking death-defying, into a pool.
Well, hold on, let me backtrack because he came over because he was a big— I was DMing with him to do something for the vlog and I'm like, well, this week I'm doing dry ice. And he goes, I fucking love dry ice.
Yeah.
And I go, come watch. And maybe we'll do something. Maybe he'll eat a cockroach or something. And he's sitting there on this edge of the pool in a chair with his dog that he just rescued, looking quite like, this is retired Steve-O. This is a man who once did his thing and now he's just like, And now he's just relaxed and just enjoying the dry ice. He's enjoying the smoke. And then there's about like a— we're in the backyard of like a 3, 4-story house, and I point to the roof and I'm like, so how do you think you're going to jump off that thing? Like as a joke. And he goes, and he responds, and he goes, I think the best way for me is to do a flip. And I go, I was totally kidding. And he goes, no, no, I'm going to do it. And I couldn't believe it. He was just sitting there. I think just scouting out, like, the whole— just seeing, calculating, calculating if he can land in this pool with the dry ice. And then I think you were about to say what I love about Steve-O is— what was he saying on the roof?
He just goes, well, how are you going to do this? And he goes, well, he goes, I have a thing that I do.
Yeah, yeah.
He's like, and it's the same thing I do every time. He's like, I take my hand and I count 3, 2, 1. And when I get to 1, He's like, I go no matter what. And I was like, wow.
I, I— no, it's, it's, it's—
yeah, did I say it wrong?
No, no, no, it's that, but I think it's when he starts counting.
Yeah, once he starts counting, once he starts counting, he doesn't stop. He's locked in.
I love that, cuz that's his, that's his deadass.
Yes.
I love when people have like their own like little tiny religions.
It was interesting too, because when we met him, I was like, oh, I thought he'd be retired. Like, you would have— sorry, I was expecting him to be like retired. Like, he just wouldn't do wasn't going to do stunts anymore. He'd done so much by the time we met him, but he was still doing it. Yeah, he was like fully fucking cool.
One of my favorite celebrity cross paths with, as we're on the subject, I'm going to keep going, um, was when I met Madison Beer. For somebody my age, that's funny, was like the biggest deal. Like, Madison Beer is the— I would say she's the Megan— I, I don't know if I could say she's the Megan Fox of our generation, cuz I think Megan Fox is the Megan Fox of our generation. Now, were you there when I met Madison?
I don't know.
We were at the VMAs and she was there.
Oh no, I wasn't.
Oh, you were there? Jason? Yeah, you were dressed as Jesus Christ. Yeah, at the VMAs, which is so fucking crazy that we did that shit. So I remember we were walking the carpet at the VMAs and Madison Beer was there, and I don't know. Oh, I think she came up to me. I made eye contact with her and then she came up to me. She's like, I love your stuff.
Yeah.
And I could not believe that. And like, I remember I got her number that day and this was like one of like the first like super cool, hot celebrities that I've ever interacted with in my life. So like, I remember we were at dinner, we were at Emilio's in New York having dinner. And I remember I specifically would put my phone on the table so people would see when it would light up and it'd say text from Madison Beer. Oh my God. Because I was so excited about it.
You were waiting for her to text?
Yeah. No, I was texting because we were going to make plans to hang out that night.
Did anyone see it and go, David, your phone's ringing?
No, I think I was just honestly, I was sitting by somebody like Natalie, like one of my really close friends. So it wouldn't have been a big deal anyway. But, um, but yeah, I remember I hung out with her that night and I just like, we just sat on the couch and talked like at her house and I'm just like, this is fucking ridiculous. Like, this is fucking insane. Like, I used to like her photos when I was like a freshman in fucking college or in high school. Like, it doesn't make any sense that I'm now sitting in her New York apartment.
Oh, that's funny. Yeah. I didn't, I didn't even know who she was. So when you told me that, I was like, oh cool.
Oh no, she's the biggest deal as a kid.
But knowing her, she, she's amazing. She's great because she's, uh, you can talk comedy with her. She's really big into like Rick and Morty and like, oh wow, you know, she's really tapped it.
She's like what every hot girl wishes she was. Like Madison actually lives by that. Like she's like so nice. She likes the nerdy things. She likes the nerdy guys. Thank God.
Thank you, Madison, for letting me into your house.
Um, but, um, yeah, that— and she just like genuinely, she like, those are her favorite things to talk about. Yes, you could talk to her about comedy. She's very She's a very, very, very cool girl. That's like a very— she's a very rare case where like her personality is even— well, I can't say better than her looks, it's equal to her looks because she's peaking at the looks. She's already, she's already the hottest in the world. So yes, they're both the same.
One time I spilled wine on Anthony Anderson.
Anthony Anderson, who's that?
He's like big actor. He's like on Black-ish. He's like the lead on Black-ish.
You also spilled wine on Drake and Josh's dad in the show. So this seems like a common thing.
That was a meatball, my guy.
Oh, that was a meatball.
Get it right. Yeah, you're gonna get fucking roasted in the comments, bro.
Cancel David Dobrik. So what I dropped—
I was at Marnie's premiere party for one of her shows, and Anthony Anderson was the star, and he had a suede jacket on, and I was like talking, and I just turned and I knocked his wine all over his suede jacket. And he just went, he just went, he goes, Jason, Jason. I just met him 2 minutes before. He was like, Jason, tell me you didn't do that.
Jason, tell me you didn't do that.
Oh, terrible.
Was it fine after?
I told him, I said, I can't afford to pay for that jacket.
Who's been your favorite celebrity to meet?
Somebody that like just completely Favorite celebrity was Jim Carrey.
Oh, that's who I was gonna say. That's who made you so fucking nervous.
Jim Carrey.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, I got it.
That was weird, man. It looked like you had diarrhea.
Yeah, that was weird because he walked up to us. We weren't trying to bother Jim Carrey. Yeah, at all. And the day before, Harry Jowsey and I were manifesting, and we manifested something. He's like, he's like, what do you want? And I was like, oh, I was like, I'd love to have dinner with Dave Chappelle. He's like, all right, mate. He's like, I'll write it on the board. And he like wrote it on the board. And then the next day we go to the premiere and then we see Jim Carrey get out of his car and he just fucking locks eyes with us like 200 feet away. He locks eyes with me and Jonah. So I was like, maybe he knows Jonah from Instagram.
That's really funny.
Or maybe he thought— what I thought was, oh, Jonah's like funny looking.
Yeah, 1000%.
Jonah looks like—
Jonah welcomes that so much.
Yeah.
I mean, that's why we literally were friends with him since day one.
Yeah, so maybe he recognized that.
Yeah, no, 100%. He like could feel Jonah's funny aura where he was like, I need this, I need to interact with this man no matter what.
And Tom Brady. Tom Brady's the best. When you hook that up, that was the best.
And then Bon Jovi, so nice to my mom. Well, we're really name-dropping the podcast. Seriously. No, but let's keep it going because we might as well get it out in one podcast so we don't ever talk about it. Bon Jovi, I really loved. We went to his wine event once. Oh yeah, he was And first of all, he was great, and I didn't want to tell anybody I met Bon Jovi because my mom is the biggest Bon Jovi fan. Like, that— I think Bon Jovi is like— I always say it was ABBA and the Beatles, and then my mom just had a crush on Bon Jovi. So like, that was like a big reason to get into like '70s, '80s, '90s music was because of Bon Jovi. So when I met him, like the press there, whatever, had me take a picture with him. And I was like, please, I hope no one sees this. I hope no one sees this. My mom sends it to me, I think like an hour and a half later. She goes, what the fuck is this? She's like— and I didn't want to tell her because I wanted to like to set something up with him where we like surprise my mom.
You met anybody? Not—
I mean, meeting like the Kardashians was like a big deal for me.
Ah, yes, yes. When did you meet them?
We went to— right after we did the Kylie video. Kylie.
You took us to their house.
Yeah, I know. I don't know.
I mean, Kendall. Kendall was like a big—
Oh my God. Yeah, Kendall. Oh my God. What the fuck? When you say Kardashians, for some reason you don't think about them. I just think of Kim.
Yeah, I was mostly referring to Kim in that scenario. Like, we met Kim at— right after we did the Kylie video, she invited us to her cosmetics party.
Oh my God. My favorite. Sorry, hold on. My favorite is I have this hometown friend named Dima. Yeah. And if you know my videos, he was handcuffed to Ilya in one of my videos. It's like the whole video was about them being handcuffed together. And there was like a moment in time where like everybody in LA went out, like everybody kind of knew each other. And Kylie was over at my house after like one of the nights that we were going out, and Dima was over. There was a moment I was in my living room and there was only like 15, 20 people at my house. And I look over and it's just Dima and Kylie in the kitchen talking. And And I had such a panic, but it was also so funny where, like, instead of going to make sure everything was okay, like, I think I grabbed, like, did I tell you? I don't know who I was. I grabbed someone near me. I was like, you got to see this. Look at what's going on. This is like, because it's two worlds that should never have ever intersected. Yes. And they're talking in the kitchen. It was the fucking craziest thing ever.
So funny.
Especially if you know Dima. Like, Dima is like—
Describe Dima.
I mean, he was my assistant for a while. Yeah.
Oh my God, I forgot about that.
He's like, do you want to know a funny story? One time when I was like, we were working together and Dave was like, you should hire Dima, you should have him move here and work for you.
Yeah.
And I was like, okay. And so I was, I was like, oh sure, if David thinks that's a good idea, like, I'll do that, you know. And, uh, and then he starts working for us, working for me, and he starts like fucking a lot of things up.
Yeah.
Like, uh, he was fucking— he fucked up the podcast or something, and Dave was like, why the fuck Where the fuck is Dima editing the fucking podcast?
And I'm like, you fucking told me.
He's like, no, he's like, I didn't tell you. I told you to just pay him to hang out, not to actually do anything. Yeah.
I was like, oh, I think that's what I kind of meant. I just want to Dima out here because he's such a character.
He's fun.
He's like, he has, he's lost his license like 3 times because of all the tickets. Yeah. Like Ilya's had to bail him out of, of like debt multiple times. Like it's, he is such a fucking character and I still can't tell if he's like if it's all an act or if he's actually the way he is. But yeah, that was what— okay, sorry, back to your story. What was going on?
No, I mean, I just— I met Kim at that event. They were all there. All the sisters were at Kylie's like launch event.
And we had Stormi's birthday.
No, no, I didn't go to Stormi's birthday. But wait, remember you went—
you—
you— we— Stormi's birthday was right after we did the Todd billboard. And so I had to drive back home. So you took my Bronco.
I remember that.
Stormi's birthday. And the Bronco was like—
the Bronco stalled in front of Kanye. Kanye's car.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And Kanye— do you remember this? I think we talked about this on the podcast.
Yeah, I remember. And you were late because of that.
No, no, that's how— that was my problem. It was Kanye was like, whose fucking Bronco is in front of my car?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I was just going right back into the party. I'm like, not mine. Um, oh, so that's not where you met him?
No, no, I don't—
I don't—
I don't know the timeline, but yeah, like all the Kardashians were there and, and everybody. And Kim was so cute. She's so cute in person. Like, she's so tiny, even though you think she's like this big, busty, bodacious woman, you know, which she is. But like, she's very petite. Like, she's a tiny little thing.
Yeah, I love her. She's great.
All those girls are really, really, really nice.
Yeah, Kourtney was so nice to us.
Kourtney's like my favorite.
She had— she like made dinner for us.
Yeah, so nice.
And then they did Pit and Peek.
Oh yeah. Where we had to go around. Oh, that's when we brought Carly and Aaron.
Yeah.
And Aaron was like, I watch this on the show all the time. Like right when, right when Courtney brought it up, Aaron's like, this is my favorite thing. I can't believe we're experiencing this. Yeah. That, that was really fun. Okay. I'll name drop this one. This one's not big, but like, sorry. No, no, not, not big. I'm saying that people already know about it. Um, but when we did Wayne Brady and Charlie Puth, uh, with Charlie Puth and Wayne Brady, which is probably the most like killer combo you can have. And we had them in the back of a tour bus and driving around Hollywood and they were just singing to people. That was one of the most incredible things.
You love that.
Yeah, it was amazing. Wayne Brady is a fucking genius. I don't know how he walks among us. I've never seen anybody as quick as Wayne Brady. And I genuinely feel like— I know I've watched a lot of Wayne Brady. I've watched a lot of Whose Line? There's some, there's some jokes that he makes in that vlog that are in like, that are in like the Hall of Fame for Wayne Brady in my opinion. They're like in the best Wayne Brady performance.
Other level kind of jokes.
It's so good. And same with Sacha Baron Cohen was—
Oh my God, I was so jealous. I didn't get to go out that day.
Wait, what? Wow, you didn't come to Borat?
No.
Oh wow.
It was just you and him. That's Susie.
That's the video that's— Oh, because we drove around. That's the video that I feel like most people come up to me and talk about.
Yeah.
Is Borat. Yeah. People are always like, what was the filming like with Borat? Oh yeah, yeah. And I remember like driving around, it's— it was impossible. No, it was so unrealistic to drive around with Borat that like, this happened I think 2 or 3 times where we pulled up next to somebody or he was out of the car and I was filming him. And there was one guy that distinctly said, nice costume. Yeah, because it's just like, it's obviously not Borat, right? Like, you're obviously not running into Borat. And then there was another situation where like, you could tell that people were just like admiring firing it because they thought it was like a, like a really funny, like, lookalike.
Totally.
Um, which is really funny, which is insane. And he was the best. That's one of those situations where like you'll talk to his team before. Yeah. And I didn't meet him until I met him on camera.
Yeah.
And his team was like, he doesn't want you to meet him until he's Borat. Like, he does— like, he, he wants to come in as character. So I was like, fuck yeah. This is— I was so fucking nervous. I was like, this is crazy that I'm meeting like one of the funniest people of all time. And his team, like, before we— like, I had to like send in all the bits I wanted to do with him. Like, I sent it out. Like, remember Natalie? I was like, this seems very like calculated. I was really nervous.
Yeah.
And then when he came, we did none of the bits because I literally just fucking followed this guy around. It was funny everywhere. Yeah. Like, I think, I think they had like the bits just in case. Like, it was literally like you saw it in the video. Like, it was just like walking around with him and shooting the shit.
Did he ever drop character with you?
He did. Yeah. I don't think I've ever said it because I didn't want to ruin the illusion. He did. There was one we were in that we were on Franklin, I remember, and he like said a joke and he was like, should I do that again? In his British accent. And then there was another time where he made a joke and he's like, we can't do that one. That's too much. That's too much. So that was really funny.
Wow.
Um, but no, for the most part he was in character. But what was really cool about the Borat video is that they, that they trusted me with that. Like, that felt like such like an honor to like have, to have this character in your hands. And then I sent him over the edit and they had no notes. Yeah, no notes.
Yeah, that's great.
Which was fucking unheard of crazy. Like, this guy's only been around like, there's only two movies, right? He made one big movie and then another big movie and like That was kind of it. I'm sure he's done other press as Borat, but like, that was the first time he brought out the ice cream truck since the first movie. So it was like 10 years or whatever. And like, the fact that they just gave me the keys to play with it was fucking incredible.
You ever meet Jack Black?
Jack Black? Yes. Yeah. You don't remember this? Do you remember the story?
Oh wait, was it at the Teen Choice?
It was at the Teen Choice Awards. I was hosting the show and I'm backstage Fuck. And I'm like, so in my zone.
Yeah.
And Jack Black walks by and goes, Dobrik, and puts his hand up to give me a high five. And I walk right by.
Oh my God, I remember that.
And then Natalie, what did you say? You were the one that called me back. Or Megan. Someone's like, yo, you just fucking— you just walked by Jack Black trying to give you— and obviously he played it off in the most Jack Black way possible.
I think he reenacted it or something. Or something.
He either high-fived himself or he was like, okay. But I turned around right after. So, so that's where I got to, that's where I got to meet him. That was the same time I met Robert Downey Jr.
Yes.
Oh yeah. Yeah. That was a big, oh, that's the biggest one.
It's the biggest night of my life.
Wow.
That was the last time the Teen Choice Awards were on TV. So it makes you think, did I crush the hosting job where no one could ever beat it? Or did I do so poorly where the ratings were so low? That was a big fucking, that was a big award show.
Huge.
Yeah. Like the fact that Robert Downey was there, Taylor Swift was there, Jack Black was there, the Jonas Brothers were there. That was really bizarre.
Yeah.
Like, I don't see that too often. Well, like, for those types of award shows, I guess.
No, that's a big, big—
actually, no, you kind of do. Like, you see— you see—
choice, like winning the surfboard was a big deal.
Like, do you guys think that, like, people don't care about celebrities anymore?
I think people are, like, destigmatized to celebrity a little bit because it's like you just— you get so much content of people now.
I think they're a little bit more annoyed. And I think— I think, like, everyone's kind of a celebrity in their own right now. Like, Taylor fangirls over this fucking girl on TikTok that has, like, 40,000 followers. Sends me her TikToks every day. If I had any option to surprise her with anybody, it'd be her.
Yeah.
Like over fucking Jennifer Lopez. Like, that's, that's who I'm bringing in. That's her celebrity. Like, no questions asked. So I just think, I just think there's so many niches now where, yeah, you just like find more people that like are tailored to you.
But like, there's not, there's not like big stars anymore, right? Are there new stars?
Yes, there are. There are. Yes, there are. Okay.
Who?
Fucking Taylor Swift.
Movies, movies. Obviously there'll always be singers.
Timothée Chalamet. I think you're just in like an awkward era right now where like the new is replacing the old.
Timothée Chalamet, I love, I love, I agree. But I couldn't name somebody else besides him.
But I, but, but I, I just, I think we're like on the cusp of it.
Yeah, you think some people coming?
Yeah, like there's so many young actors and actresses that I feel like are about to like switch into like Zendaya, like your Zendayas, your Hailee Steinfelds, your Madelyn Kleins, your Ross Butlers, Ross Smiths, Sydney Sweeneys. Like I feel like all these people are like, in a couple years will be like, these are, these are our A-listers.
I, I agree that it's like shifted though, where it's not like— I feel like there used to be like one really big male star and one really big female star that would book so many roles. Yeah, like now I feel like it's a little more spread out.
I don't know, I think something's missing.
Well, it's also the stardom is like less mysterious than it used to be.
That's a good point.
Like you can't, like you can't be Brad Pitt or DiCaprio where like you only see them on the carpet now. Like now, like I feel bad for DiCaprio every time I see fucking— like, I saw a video of him like leaving a bathroom and I'm like, that's just like, well, what happens?
He gets paparazzi?
Not even paparazzi, just like people.
I was just like, I guess you can say you feel bad because that's part of it. But like, but like, yeah, like, I mean, it's just like everyone, everyone is now the press, right? Like, it's like everyone has a phone and every time you point your phone at somebody that's a big star, it's going to get clicks. Like, that's just how the algorithms work.
So not as fun to be a celebrity. Anymore, right?
I mean, no, you haven't seen like interviews like with like celebrities. So like, I think Ashton Kutcher was talking about it, like it must suck to be a celebrity now because he's like, there's— I can't even imagine that. No phones in the club.
Yeah, I can't imagine.
Like, and, and I'm so grateful for social media because it gave me my life.
Yeah.
But like, I can— I'm also very lucky that I was born in a time where there was no social media. And dude, there's nothing better. Like, you know when there's like memes on TikTok and you're like, it's like a, it's like a picture of like a bedroom from like 2020, from like 2013. Birds are chirping outside. Yes. The sun is like coming through the, and it's like, there's like something playing on the TV. It's like old-timey and it feels like, and everyone's like, I wish I could be back in this moment.
Yeah.
And I think the reason that moment doesn't exist anymore is social media. You're always on your phone. You can always reach anybody. Before I had to call home phones.
Mm-hmm.
And like, if I wanted to talk to a girl or a guy that I wanna be friends with or whatever, like I had to get their phone number and make a plan, have my parents drive. Like it was like a thing.
Yeah.
And now it's just like, should we go here? Let me check the story. Nope. Looks lame. Should we go here? Let me check the story. Nope. Looks lame. Too many people. Like, it's just like all of the mystery of anything is gone now. Yeah. Like now you know everything about a single person before you even meet 'em, or at least you think you do through social media.
Yeah.
Or like you don't have to go to a restaurant cuz you're seeing all the reviews and people tasting the food and you're seeing the videos because everyone's a critic.
Yeah.
So it's just like the mystery of life and the magic of figuring things out is gone because of social media, but also is inevitable. So I don't know.
Is there somebody that you've met that you like had a bad opinion of and then you met them and they were great?
I mean, I kind of felt that way about like meeting like Kylie and Kendall.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like I didn't anticipate them even acknowledging my presence, you know? And they were like, So like when I first met Kylie, like she gave me a big hug and I was like, you don't know me. I am literally—
Me too. I couldn't believe she hugged me.
A rat from the street. Yeah.
We have a video of you, like we were at a roller skating rink or something and I was just, I was starring Kylie and you're like in the back, like dancing. Like what's going on? We should do like Name Drop Mondays or something. Like once every 2 months we name drop the last couple months of celebrities.
Okay.
Okay. But one of the craziest run-ins I've had recently is Jason Nash. Oh my God, at Erewhon. I thought that was crazy. I mean, how long have I known Jason? I don't think I've ever run into him in public, in the wild.
Do you want to know something?
What?
Earlier in the day, I was, I was already at Erewhon, and the valet comes up to me and he goes, you just missed David.
Yeah, that's crazy.
Yeah, and then I went back a second time, and I usually, I'm never there more than once in a day, and you were in line with me.
That was crazy. He was standing right behind me in line. I thought I was hallucinating.
Yeah.
I mean, it just made no sense. I mean, it is like, it is like seeing your teacher outside of school, like times 10, if you want.
Yeah.
That's really funny.
That's my favorite celebrity sighting. Jason Nash at Erewhon. All right guys, that's all the time we have for today's podcast. Thank you guys for listening. Thanks for tuning in. This is a fun little session. Let us know what you want to hear more of and we'll bring it right to you. Go check out Jason's podcast. Called All Things.
