all right i'm back i'm back i got the reads and everything and what a
difference
a couple hours makes um as all of you already know i just literally just found
out about the
untimely and shocking passing of uh bob saget and uh
i don't even know what to say i'm just absolutely in shock um
i mean i don't know what else to say than what everybody else said just like
absolutely the
nicest guy and just so goddamn funny and um absolutely loved making people
laugh and love
jokes and whenever i would text with him he would go on until you stopped like
i don't care if it was
like three in the morning if you were joking back and forth that guy just loved
to improv and
just make people laugh and one of the most amazing things that i found about
that guy was
he was literally friends with comedians that were only a couple years into the
business
all the way to legends working in vegas some of whom who weren't selling as
many tickets and kind of
were working off the strip he would fly out there he'd go to their shows
encourage them tell them
they're funny and have dinner with them and um
i don't know i met him i believe the first time i met him was probably on the
opian anthony show
i can't remember if it was the virus tour if he was in studio first but
i was immediately was just struck with how down to earth he was it was fucking
bob saget right who
you know you know and um
yeah i mean he would just wire to wire i knew a little more than 15 years and
just wire to wire
was just an absolute sweetheart i'd never had one argument with him
he was just the nicest guy and i really very thankful that i had a very
complete friendship with him
you know we told each other that we loved each other shared you know
you know stories about growing up and how the hell we both ended up being comedians
yeah man i mean
if that guy wasn't making people laugh he was out organizing a benefit to help
other people out and
that is why you see the kinds of tributes that he's getting
um
it's just fucking brutal
fucking brutal i'm absolutely in shock so with that um wow
wow jesus christ someday i'll i will tell you guys
i'll tell you more stories that he would he would get a fucking kick out of
um but it's always tragedy plus time so
um all right here's a saget story for you i gotta change the names here
um one of the last times i hung out with them
um i was hanging you know with a bunch of comics some musicians and everything
typical comedy store
just a great mix of people we were up on the roof thanks to mike binder and his
um documentary
they built a little area up there where you can
smoke cigars he did it for that documentary he did about um the comedy store so
we're up on the roof
and we would tell tell you know just talking comedy and uh
there's this story about this one comic i can't say the guy's name
but his deal this is so bad his deal
was when a comic would die he would call up that comics agent and be like oh my
god i heard about so
and so i'm so sorry i just want to make sure you're doing okay and then they'd
be like oh gee so and
so i'm so glad you called it's so nice of you to reach out
um and they got in the comic yeah if there's anything i can do you know you
know i'm always
here for you buddy we all love so and so blah blah blah blah blah and then in
the end he goes yeah
listen and if he had any corporate dates on the book you need me to cover just
let me know he was actually calling up
to take the dead comics gigs under the guise of acting like he gave a shit so
anyway
um how do i tell the story without giving away who it is they fucking
there was a story uh a comedian his wife was downstairs making breakfast the
guy died in the morning
okay that's the loose version of what happened so we were all just sitting
there thinking about that
and then out of nowhere saget goes so and so probably came by and asked for his
eggs
i can't do it justice i also had to leave out so many details but it was the
fucking
line of the night and i remember i was up on the roof with bartnick and bartnick
has this thing when
somebody just does a really dark sick joke which was so much of bob's humor
which is so funny because
he was such a loving caring guy he could just go so dark i remember bartnick
just closing his eyes and
just threw his head back and started laughing and um i remember laughing and
yelling out line of the night
and i remember seeing how happy
yeah how happy that made him
