This is the best genuine interview that I have ever had the privilege of watching. Even though this comment will get lost in the gaping ass of the interweb.. I sincerely thank you. The real men behind the masks. Thank you.
Spent a day with Dana years ago when he did a show at San Jose State. In private a wonderful, unassuming, charming guy. Then fifteen seconds before showtime he morphed into this comic dynamo and killed. After the show he quickly reverted to the shy unassuming earlier guy. A wonderful day.
this is such a legendary interview. one of the great ones of entertainment industry. thank you Kevin for this. and dana you are a genuinely beautiful soul
We ran into Kevin Pollak ( you) in San Francisco when you did a stand up show twenty years ago. You did a great show and really cool because you were so friendly and greeted everyone coming in. It is nice to see down to earth actors/comedians and thank you. Love both of you guys. Great stories.
this is like radio, and i love it.... i dont' miss TV at all. I can paint and listen and laugh and be inspired all at the same time! Dana Carvey, the best comedian up there with George Carlin.
Ross Perot "a walking, talking cartoon"! lol Dana, love you & glad you're okay! What an honor to have Frank Sinatra's last moments be by you. Thanks, Kevin, for letting guests tell the whole story. We don't get that anywhere else. :)
Years ago Dana did a show near Christmas for 1st Data Corporation that my wife and I were at. He cracked me up the entire show. You can tell how smart he is the way he can just go and go. Must be the 10,000 hour thing he talked about here. Carvey is just plain funny through and through.
This was an excellent interview! Kevin is so relaxed and creates a atmosphere where incredible stars can be showcased for the everyday people that they are. Brilliant.
Dude the JFK and Elvis in a bunker thing is hilarious. For some reason I think Dana Carvey is one of the bests comedy actors of our time. Amazing impressionist as well.
A superb interview! It was nice getting a picture of the real Dana Carvey. So, only 10,000 hours to become a success, eh? Dana's explaining his plugged artery, was fascinating.
August 2022,..........Love these interviews,.....I didn't start listening to any of these until a few weeks ago. The pandemic of 2020 -2021, destroyed my world. Stores are still not fully open, the ones that are,....have shortened hours,....ones that were 24 hours open,.....do not exist. Even bars aren't fully open, as much as they used to be. I gave up drinking,...years ago, anyway. I'm an old fart and should probably be at home more than I used to be. All the coffee house/bistros I used to frequent are closed by 6pm. It feels like we went back to the 1950s,.....when stores closed at 5, and there wasn't anything to do but go to sleep. For the last 3 years, the Internet and You Tube, saved me from going completely insane.
Very funny Kevin, I like the format. I just found your channel and I'm impressed. Its like watching a bunch of friend in a bull session. I get to learn more about Dana than I ever would have on TV. Great show.
Thank God, Dana went to the cardiologist and took care of the artery issue. Marin General Hospital is well rated but Cedar Sinai is stellar!. Unbelievable they missed his LAD during his surgery! I am a Sonoma County/Marin native and have encountered many physicians in the area. Thank goodness, his heart muscle was in great shape to begin!
Thanks Dana I found your words very interesting. Kevin does the type of interview I think with the perspective that its real and the stories and guests seem unreserved.......cool
Wow! You guys brought back so many memories like The Old Waldorf which was a Bill Graham venue that famously became, The Punch Line. Holy City Zoo, Cobbs Comedy Club and The Hungry i were landmark venues for some of the greatest comedians. Amazing. Does anyone remember Alex Bennett?
I spent a lot of time at the old Waldorf. I used to do lights with the girl that worked there Leslie. I remember those dressing rooms and a lot of famous people going in and out of them. It was one of the few clubs where you got to play and get a dinner ticket. Those were great times.
You mean Kevin Pollak would have been good. He is a far better interviewer than Dana. Danas forte is impressions and accents and stuff not interviewing
Last time I remember seeing him on SNL was probably back in.. 2002? I recall him & Will Ferrell and someone else doing some President sketch. Would be most excellent for him to host again, I wouldn't care if he has nothing to promote- just get 'em on!
Flowers in the dirt for me was like The comeback album so to speak not quite wings it was all McCartney much like when Aerosmith Toys in the Attic that was the only album for me, and then Aerosmith rocks come out and that first song with that build first track side a is like it just it was amazing f****** amazing the same thing with the first cut on my brave face, unbelievable.
+Hugh-John Fleming Doesn't mean he isn't still hilarious and amazingly talented. `i would rather see him any day over most of the so called trending "comedians" today.
I was referring to this show specifically which is kinda hard to take with KP's meandering style and endless intros. Carvey I have seen. Worth the ticket price when he is in your patch.
@@jennifertimlin1371 It's called having a conversation. If all people wanted was questions answered there would be no host. The guest could come out and read them off a fucking piece of paper.
@@BDUBZ49Kevin is literally the interviewer that interrupts the least out of any I've heard. Some people just can't help themselves THEY HAVE TO complain. If he had been silent all the time they would complain about that, there is no pleasing certain people they are just toxic by nature
Great interview, HUGE fan of Dana Carvey but for the longest time growing up I thought he was the same guy who played the judge on Night Court. I know, I know, white people don't all look alike but I swear I thought it was him.
I see what you mean. Carvey does look like Harry Anderson but if he stood behind him, no-one would know he was there. Night Court probably had the tallest cast in TV history. They had to modify the set to light Bull properly because he was 6' 8" and the rest of the guys were all about 6' 4". And Roz was almost 6'! Now you can win the next TV trivia contest. ;o)
This is the best genuine interview that I have ever had the privilege of watching. Even though this comment will get lost in the gaping ass of the interweb.. I sincerely thank you. The real men behind the masks. Thank you.
gaping ass of the interweb thanks you and Dave Mason, Van Morrison and Colombo Belushi
this is the most obscure goatse reference ever
A gem. A big thank you to Kevin and Dana. A delight
Carvey is surprisingly humble for a guy who absolutely killed at stand up. I saw him in the '80s before SNL and he was the best I ever saw.
a tip: watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching all kinds of movies these days.
@Solomon Kendall yea, I have been watching on Flixzone for since november myself =)
2023. I still miss this show.

Damn!!! This is what an interview SHOULD be! That's my evening's unwinding taken care of
Dana's lessons apply to so many across the board. Great post, Kevin. You always strengthen my stomach!
OMG, you've GOTTA have Dana Carvey on again. Through this episode I found this great and brilliant comedian and I've gotta have more.

These are amazing. Stumbled onto the Bill Hader interview, found the rest. This is amazing.
One of my absolute favorite comedians of all time!! I wonder when this was aired and what he's working on currently...LOVE YOU, DANA!!!!!!!
One of the best pure comics of all time. Just excellent. Great interview.
This is great. I really enjoyed the gentle pace and the sincerity of this. Thank you, Kevin.
Oh Lord, what an interview. More like this please. Kevin you’re a true talent

You're one of the best interviewers there are! Keep it up!
Dana is the greatest! I could talk to him for hours

LOve this show..big fan of Dana. Kevin is super... great show..
Talent,. Talent, Talent! Wonderful rememberences and insights! Fate said this guy is really needed! Keep on keeping on😀

My #1 comedian crush, Dana Carvey!! THE BEST
Awesome interview. Thank you for this upload~
Best ever ! I couldn't turn away. Was still ready for more

Thanks so much, your choice of guests and ability to let them talk is so cool.

Yuengling is from around my area, PA local brew and the oldest brewery in America. One of my favorite beers, more people should know about it.
Love these stories!
Fab interview, thanks!

I am a Sonoma County/Marin native and have encountered many physicians in the area. Thank goodness, his heart muscle was in great shape to begin!
This is the first and probably only time we will ever see Han Solo really open up and share his story with us. Amazing interview!
"Do you hate birds?"
I fuckin' lost it.
It is also brewed in Tampa, FL, the brewery in Pottsville, PA is the oldest in the county.
Great interview. Great chat. DC.
Fascinating interview with Dana Carvey, loved all the insight on his #HEARTCONDITION
Thanks Dana I found your words very interesting. Kevin does the type of interview I think with the perspective that its real and the stories and guests seem unreserved.......cool

Really enjoyed this, Norm Macdonald has a good Dana Carvey interview aswell.
#DANACARVEY is a #NationalTreasure.🇺🇸🥰
He is #PriorityONE and must be protected at all costs❣🇺🇸🧑😍🤗
Great Show 👌
"Is this The Other Cafe?".....a cafe in San Francisco in the Haight Ashbury in the '80,s...
Please have Dana Carvey back!!
"Twitter is a narcissist's dream" If only he knew what was coming.......
fantastic interview

This was great
I always thought Dana would have been good to replace Leno as a host on the Tonight Show
You mean Kevin Pollak would have been good. He is a far better interviewer than Dana. Danas forte is impressions and accents and stuff not interviewing
Dana we do care! It's fun to hear!
Any chance Kevin will return to interviewing?
This podcast f'ckin rules.
Pittsburgh, PA, my home state❣️🥰
Was not expecting the theme song! Good work
nice show and yes you can get yuengling on tap in NYC :)
LOVE the intro song!
Charlie rose called- he wants his table back!-just kidding, he hates that table
"Cornhole stack". LMFAO! Dana Carvey wins the Larry King game.
Dana! Sonny Sixkiller was at University of Washington, not Washington State! (They're arch-rivals.)
Cornhole stacks. Beyond brilliant.
Dana is fabulous. Let's get Billy Crystal next.
I've watched the Larry King game from this episode about four hundred times.
He still love his Kirk Douglas. Great guy! :)
Weird to just watch Dana being Dana, for over an hour.
This was a treasure.
Thought i was clicking on to see a hann solo interview.
Are Dana and Tig Nataro twins separated at birth?
hey im so glad I found this podcast, norm macdolds is pretty edgy
At first glance of the thumbnail I thought it was Dana Carvey doing a Han Solo spoof
Has Dana Carvey ever come back and hosted SNL? That would be freakin awesom
Last time I remember seeing him on SNL was probably back in.. 2002? I recall him & Will Ferrell and someone else doing some President sketch. Would be most excellent for him to host again, I wouldn't care if he has nothing to promote- just get 'em on!
RonJammin carvey is too good for SNL.
I believe he did at some point in 2011 or 2012.
@@RonJamminhe hosted in 2011 he did church lady on update in 2016
24:30 the knights who say ni...he said the knights who say "neat".
I saw Dana and Jon Lovitz at SLS in Las Vegas...
Dear Dana, his name was Red Skelton not Skeleton.
Flowers in the dirt for me was like The comeback album so to speak not quite wings it was all McCartney much like when Aerosmith Toys in the Attic that was the only album for me, and then Aerosmith rocks come out and that first song with that build first track side a is like it just it was amazing f****** amazing the same thing with the first cut on my brave face, unbelievable.
FITD is awesome..that was a great band and a huge tour
really, good.
Looked at the thumbnail and thought is the algorithm broken, why is this interview with Tig Notaro being suggested to me?
is that Han Solo ?
Is Dana ever coming back... ever... crickets.

@@hugh-johnfleming289KP is a better interviewer than Conan hands down. He is more relaxed and doesn't have to force jokes all the time
Pollack spends a ton of a time interrupting his guests.
And making it about him.
Its called a chat show. Two people chatting.

With the Colombo thing when you closed the door if you could have reopened it (pushing the gag a little ferther farther fu ) said oh by the way

shit..21 minutes later Kevin makes the same joke
Red Skeleton???
Thumbnail looked like Dana was dressed as Han Solo.
The Knights that say "neat"? OhhhKaaay....Sure. LOL
Two comedic scholars sharing their lives. How cool is that?
We have to talk about "The Knights who say NEAT". Dana, wtf?
