Chapter 1: Who is today's guest and what is his background?
Hello there, everybody. This is Dana Solo. It's a little scary. My partner in crime, David Spade, is flying right now. He's flying to Singapore today to do a corporate date. No, I made that up. But anyway, I'll give you a little taste of him if you miss him. Everybody's like... Anyway, that's my David Spade. Our guest today, where David is on the interview, was really a blast.
We put him in one of our favorites, Ike Barinholtz, who was on MADtv for like seven years, I think, did all these characters. He's got a big... A big resume, The Mindy Project, and currently Running Point on Netflix with Cade Hudson. Chet Hanks, that's pretty cool. Justin Theroux. So we go through all those shows. We go through his career. He has a nepo dad. You'll find out about that.
And he is sort of a brainiac. He's one... Celebrity Jeopardy and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and raised literally babillions, millions for charity. So very fun. A hard laugher came to play. So I think this one will cheer you up for sure. Ike Barinholtz, everybody.
I can't wait for the 50th anniversary of this podcast.
i skipped the snl 50th man had something to do wait were you i was wondering you must have had like you must have had the flu or something yeah i had the flu that was lingering so i was kind of by the day of the show i felt great but i was 3 000 miles away yeah no but i but yeah when i had to make the call i was like i don't have the oomph and you know yeah no
Well, if he doesn't have the oomph, we don't want him.
Marcy, look up oomph. No, it's a Scandinavian word for laissez-faire, I believe. For lazy fare. Did you audition for SNL? We don't have any now line. You have a lot to talk about.
I did not audition for SNL. In like 1998, I remember... people from NBC came to improv Olympic to watch, you know, to scout. And I remember, Oh my God. And it was the worst too. Cause the owner, God bless her Sharna. She like invited like 50 of us to go on stage at once. So like everyone was like, put your pushing people aside to like do a character.
Yeah.

Chapter 2: Why didn't Ike Barinholtz audition for SNL?
We kill you on the way back to the airport. So we get it all back. The key to that is my friend. That's it. My friend. My friend, listen to me, my friend. We are going to make you so rich if you want to be rich. And I'm from Denver. I just adopted this accent by watching too much alabarsi television. Too much.
All right, go ahead. Running point. Now, I have heard it both ways, Ike. I think it's running point. And people say running point.
I thought it was the mediocre rascals. Wasn't that the name of it?
That was the name we tried to get.
The mediocre rascals.
The little rascals own any rascals. And Eddie Murphy would have a bone to pick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Buckley would get involved. It's whatever you want it to be. You could say running point. You could say running point. You could say running. Yeah.
Because there is something when people go, you're going to run point on this job or whatever on this client. Right. So I call it running point. And no one else does. I call it, what's the point?
No, I was just going to say, okay, I got to put this in. I'm going to watch it on Netflix.

Ah, that is a great movie, The Longest Day.
But if you haven't seen, because God Rest His Soul, Gene Hackman, if you haven't seen The Firm, you've seen it, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah, he's great in that. And that whole movie is fantastic.
That movie is really great. Like, for like a legal thriller, that's a great movie.
And he's unbelievable. Is Denzel in that? Um...
No, that's the Pelican Brief. That's his next movie. David, what would you watch? And don't say Tommy Boy. Don't say Tommy Boy. Don't plug the 30 Panthers.
Don't say Opportunity Knox. Josie and the Pussycats. All the classics. No, I don't... Dave's not a movie guy. When I get on a movie, when I get on a flight, I have to have a TV in the back of that chair. And it just kills time. It's so great. So when I'm on a flight... They have new release. They have old ones. I always buzz through. I can't tell you the last one I saw.
