fuck really are you

in reno in san jose this weekend there you go that's the honest thing and um
speaking of honesty
i have an amazing guest here this week um for the thursday afternoon just
before friday monday
morning podcast who i got to know through um this guy that i forget his name
but he had a sweater
draped over his shoulders like you know like the coming of age dick in the 80s
movies um who let us
know about this amazing young director writer and all of that we have the
wonderful uh tyler falbo
thank you who is on on the podcast we did a show called a moral compass uh
which is gonna be
debuting november 3rd 5th 5th on roku roku roku roku yes you gotta get this i'm
telling you this kid
is a beast he's soft-spoken he's humble this is his second podcast ever he's
gonna be oh you know i
don't know what i'm doing here you know what you're doing tyler so great i mean
how long have we been
we pitched the show we got it on quibi oh god yeah that was we pitched it like
2019
yes got it quibi wanted it and then pre-pandemic we pitched this thing yeah and
then we were supposed
to shoot it in march of 2020 and then pandemic that's right yep and then that
happened and then
the pandemic happened and then that and then quibi came out after the pandemic
start great timing yes and
it did poorly and then they luckily said okay we'll go shoot your show in september
and we did and then october quibi said well we're shutting down yeah and then
it ended and we just
didn't get going and you know what's funny was a lot of places i think during
the pandemic
um like streaming and everything because people were just home they were binge
watching stuff and i just
think for some reason they were the new kids on the block i think they needed
people to be out to see
the billboards i don't know not like you can't advertise i don't know what
happened so the friggin show
goes away i was devastated because i actually do uh i have a little part on
this thing um playing sort of
a guy who peaked in the early 90s which if you've really taken the details of
how the wardrobe and
hair and makeup how they just absolutely crushed it um i basically do i would
like a wraparound thing
and to describe what the show is it's basically um tyler makes these really
short dark dark
dark major left turn short films that all have like a theme like jealousy envy
uh empathy or something
whatever and it's all built around um i just love about each one of them it's
like there comes that
everybody's sort of normal when they start and there's either an event or a
decision and someone
there's a fork in the road and someone can veer left or they veer right and
your characters always veer
in the direction of excitement we'll say you know i was thinking uh about
because you know we talked
about how like you know it was great that you're involved in the show because
there is some kind of
weird similarity between your comedy and in this show and it's so different
because your comedy is
definitely way different than the show but i think i found out like the
specific thing that reminded me
of it adam lowe at our showrunner uh reminded me of the clip from your special
the black and white one
um where you're doing the bit about the guy in the helicopter yes yes and and
what was so funny about
that bit uh was not just what happened but you're describing the pilot sitting
there what's going
through his head when he's watching a guy jump out to commit suicide yeah just
to let people know there
was a guy who wanted to commit suicide and he decided to do it by getting a
helicopter ride
you know although i love the rock star way the guy went out but also did he
need to drag this guy
into it so this guy actually flew with the guy that flew that guy that jumped
out he never brought it
up which makes him even more badass and from what i heard the story was the guy
just kept asking if he
could fly higher can you go a little higher can this thing go a little higher
and because of where
they were there was an airspace above him probably you know lax he couldn't go
into it so the guy just
like opened the door and undid his seat belt and then opened the door and the
pilot tried to grab
him now when you fly a helicopter you can't take your hands off the controls
you know especially if
it's robinson um or you're gonna start descending immediately but he grabbed
the guy and the guy
hit him hit the pilot and then the pilot was just like all right fuck it man i'm
not dying too
and the dude jumped out and uh landed in the water did not die at first and
then and that's and then
yeah i did a bit on that which i think that would be a moral conundrum in the
show is if you're the
pilot you know what do you do here do you try and save this guy or save your
life and then the twist
at the end that happened in your story would probably happen the show too where
the guy survived yeah
he lived for a minute and your in your show the guy would have lived lived but
uh no absolutely dude
if you're flying and someone starts punching you in the head because they want
to jump out it's like
all right jump out i wish you wouldn't do that but uh i'm feeling good about
life and still being
alive and everything so how did you um how did you like i don't know how long
you've been making the
like making films and when you started out we because i i start when i started
out stand up i was like
totally clean and i didn't want to offend anybody because i had been just
getting screamed at my
whole life so i was really on like my heels and i didn't want to piss off the
headliner
and i want a club owner so here's a nice wholesome act that's not gonna you
know put any ripples
in the water did you for you right from the gate were you the sort of dark or
no i mean i bet you
could guess this but i came from like a religious background like in florida
like very opposite of
what this is but yeah i know i'm from jacksonville florida have they seen your
films
yeah and i think that's i kind of like you know like when my grandmother would
watch my shorts like
when it hit the punch line she would just kind of like shake her head and look
down i feel like that's
what inspired me that was your litmus test thing all right i'm on to something
yeah exactly this is
funny and yeah in high school you know i always wanted to make like serious
movies like growing up i
just love like the cohen brothers and uh oh they make some comedy a bunch of
comedies too and like
paul thomas harrison movies and i always wanted to make like that kind of stuff
but whenever i was
coming up with ideas i would always like figure out some weird fucked up
direction they would go in
and it would not be what i wanted to do but it just naturally always happened
that way
and i just was like oh i should lean into this this is better than what i was
going to make anyway
but what i liked is i couldn't guess the ending it was always just like
somebody did something
and uh oh you know i kind of you put yourself in in the place of the character
a lot where you're
just going like all right what would i if i if i just did that would i fess up
to it would i try to
get out of it and um i can't stress enough i just hope people you know are
gonna flock to this thing
because the casting that we got on this you have one where i think these two
guys should do a movie
just the way they look together on screen we have one of the short films that
stars vince vaughn
and bobby lee and just seeing the two of them together they're both like
genius comedic actors and one guy's what's been six five six five he's like you're
high yeah and
then bobby's like five what six or seven i hope five two no no he's gotta be no
but i mean for me
that was like you know that's part of the um this i don't want to give anything
away but it is
important that they were these size differences and uh and that was just like
unbelievable that they
were both willing to do that one i was i had no idea i was gonna get those guys
like those like
heavyweights yeah i mean i i well you know what it is there's so much uh you
know there's a lot of
material out there but i just don't think there's really great material and
what sold it was what
you wrote and then you had those those other ones the guy helping his
girlfriend move in and
all the stuff that happens in that one this is gonna be such a difficult show
to talk about because
those are all the surprises i don't want to give it away but like al madrigal's
in one
maryland uh rice cups in another uh i host them sort of the uh what were they
what were they calling
me the uh oh they yeah in the interview the the downer rod sterling downer rod
sterling yeah
i'll take that which i love that because i mean that is the kind of thing we
were going for is that
like someone to bring the whole show together i mean you know it gets a little
more involved as we go
on but yeah like your character's point of view really drives everything in the
show well if we
do us if we were lucky enough to get another season of this uh i have more
ideas of where i want to
take that guy i have a couple ideas too because it's like that guy we could go
further with him
or it's like what if you're another guy like just completely like we go in a
different direction
you do that same it's the same purpose but like you're not rick anymore you're
you know steven
you know what i like about that is that's like old school tv where by the time
i came around and was
attempting to act like if you did a guest star on a show you were done yeah so
you had to make sure
that like you know there was a couple i remember i booked something on jag and
my my agent was just
like it's only like two lines dude they're not going to bring you back so like
so we waited out
for a better part i never got another i never got to wear the navy whites right
so but back in the
day like you if you did a show and they liked you you could come back a number
of times like i've been
binge watching uh the untouchables and the recently uh passed away the late
great ed asner he was
incredible and he did like three or four of those gavin mcleod did a couple lee
marvin did two
um there was a number they would you became like this this guy that they um
they just believed in
and it was just like you could be a you could be a character actor like and
just keep doing different
characters and then somewhere along the line um i guess it became kind of funny
to people as they
got educated to tv like you know yeah like how can you keep bringing that guy
back just because he's
got a mustache it's like that guy was running a car wash and you know uh last
season in this season
he's you know he's shooting a machine gun but i just think back then it wasn't
uh everyone was just
so like so psyched to have a tv which i you know if all of a sudden you could
watch the radio but um
i kind of like that idea did you watch did you like uh once upon a time in hollywood
oh my god are
you kidding me i mean i love that movie i actually own it on dvd i got i don't
own it i got a screener
and i won't throw that out even though my fucking tv doesn't recognize my dvd
player so i gotta get an
external one and i just like i i could talk forever about that movie i went to
tarantino's movie theater
and watched it oh me too you know what there's a very subtle thing in that
movie that you watch it
like three times you'll pick up on it no one ever says hippie it's always
fucking hippie the whole
movie is fucking hippies and i just love like my whole life the manson family
was so like uh
just propped up on this oh my god they were so demonic and they were terrifying
like oh
