From Workhouse Connect and aj Benza fame.

Uh, he'd liked to be walked on a leash and play really dirty, kinky sex games.

Is uh the guy put the cock in the peacock network.

Okay, bitch, Hey, everybody aj Benzi here with fame is the bitch.

This is your daily Unfiltered podcast for August Day's twenty twenty five.

Oh wait twenty twenty twenty five, twenty twenty twenty five.

Love it?

I love it because what we got one odd number beautiful.

Let me start by saying, thank god I was raised Italian.

Uh, nothing compares to it.

I'm watching.

I saw a video this morning.

Can you imagine being Clay Thompson, NBA champion, one of the best all time sharpshooters, multi millionaire, just signed a three year contract for fifty million bucks or three years.

That's on the way out of his career.

He's got plenty of money.

Good looking dude comes from an NBA pedigree.

His dad was Michael Thompson, who was a champion as an LA laker And look, you know guys had the ability to pull or has and recently had the ability to pull who I consider a very sexy beautiful woman in Megan the Stallion.

I do.

I like her.

I think she's hot, big girl to a degree, tall, a little thick, but I just like her.

I like her.

She's pretty, she's funny.

They've been going good together for several months.

I didn't think they'd last a long time.

I still don't think they will.

But hey, look they're young and in love.

Good for them.

But could you imagine?

And I don't care how good the sex is.

What do you do when your girlfriend cooks for you her specialty, her dinner specialty.

I gotta tell you, I've had a number of women cook I shouldn't say number.

A handful of women cooked for me who were girlfriends, and most of them go to the tribe and true, I make the best roast chicken, sure you do.

You slather some butter or oil on a chicken, You throw some spices on it, throw some potatoes and shit around it, onions in the oven.

That's all you gotta do.

It's simple.

It ain't brain surgery.

Can you make a soup?

Fle Not that I can, but you know what I'm saying, It's like very simple.

Oh, let me make my roasted chicken.

Okay, one girlfriend I had, Stephanie.

Jane was from Belgium.

Beautiful girl and she really could cook, I mean great, and you know, like I go to her apartment off Central Park.

She have like you know when you buy Parsley or Solontro beat in a glass jar and you'll open her fridge and all these beautiful, you know plants, Basil's that they're all in water and they look beautiful and they're refrigerated.

And she made me a great roasted chicken, and she made a number of other meals.

Stephanie could cook like crazy.

In fact, when I was with Johnny Boy Calvani back in the day and he was with his girlfriend Melizsa and Melitza's best friend with Stephanie, you can imagine the fun we had the four of us because we all were in love with each other and it's a great time.

Calvani's niece never called me back, Audrey never I left the two messages.

I know she wants to talk about Johnny Boy, but I'm sure she heard yesterday's show.

You know, I don't know what because she got busy, but maybe she'll call.

When she does, she'll give me some other stories.

We can have fun with and laugh about.

But here's Clay Thompson and your girlfriend, the sexy Megan Stallion wants to bring you her special tea.

What's her special tea?

Deep fried catfish with the side of spaghetti drowning in red sauce that I didn't see her prepare.

I'm sure it's out of a ragou jar.

First of all, who the hell look?

I give her credit for cooking for a man right up front, Good for you, But who the hell you think Cardi Be's cooking for Stefan Diggs.

Last month she was trashing and for cheating on her.

Now she's back in love with him.

These chicks don't know what the fuck they're doing.

But who have a pair?

Deep fried catfish and spaghetti together?

Is this cookout food?

Is this what you get at the cookout?

I've been to some black cookouts.

I never saw catfish and spaghetti together.

I have seen some combinations.

I think gore weird Like I love me some ribs.

Oh yeah, ribs, let's get it.

But why am I getting two dollars of baked beans and one piece of whitebread?

What is that?

Things?

That a delicacy for you people?

White bread, red beans out of a can and ribs.

I don't know.

It's weird some of this stuff.

I don't know.

Some of the traditions they have in different cultures, I don't know.

But listen, come on, catfish, you could afford a nice cut of fish.

You can get to over sell monkfish, halibut, sea best thirty bucks a pound fish.

Trust me, I know, once in a while I get it.

I bite the boat and go okay, And then I get a pound that is shit, which is not nearly enough.

But I'll cook a pasta and white sauce on the side.

You know, I make it work.

Catfish is the lower, well, tilapia is lower.

Tilapia is a fish.

I think we invented.

What the fuck that talapia from.

I'm sorry to all you folks down south who love your catfish.

You can keep your catfish and your crawfish.

Okay, Trish, let's stop that.

I know crawfish are plentiful, they're not that great.

Never put anything deep fried next to spaghetti.

I don't care what culture you're from.

Plus, if I can be picky, he was eating on it a TV train, like you know when you watch TV.

To put the little folding table Are they that comfortable already after a few months.

That's a bad sign too.

They should still be in the wooing stake.

And the video begins with them fast asleep on a couch.

I'm not sure if it's her place or his place.

He's out like a light under a blanket and she's walking out dinner.

In my experience, if you're doing that three months in, eat dinner on a TV tray, I don't think it's gonna work.

You should still be having dinner on a magnificent restaurants.

Your basketball season starts in October.

Let this last month be amazing.

And of course, Megan the Stallion added to Hawaiian rolls to the plate.

I will admit I am one of those guys late at night, and I listened the last week or two I've woken up at two thirty three o'clock in the morning hungry.

Why well, I know why because when I cooked dinner for Rockell, I gave him the majority of the meat and I take a little bit I eat, you know, I eat like little portions at dinner.

But then to wake up at two thirty and want an Hawaiian roll with butter on it not great.

But I love a Hawaiian role.

But I want to throw up that meal she cooked for Clay and I haven't even had it yet, but I want to puke it up.

Wish them lunk love birds.

Yesterday's show, I want to just mention something yesterday's show where Johnny Boy Calvani told Jack Nicholson that he was going to steal that scene in Printzy'sana right out from Under.

It made me remember something that I forgot to say.

Johnny Boy told that story one hundred years ago, who knows when, And I remember when he told that.

We were hanging out with Richie Palmer, a buddy of Arrows who owns Mulberry Street Pizza in Beverly Hills.

There's three or four of those pizza places.

Richie's originally from New York.

Him and I go way back.

I've spoken about him.

He's the guy that got me to write the TV pilot for stallone.

Blah bah bah.

Richie's great love him to death.

At some point he was yeah looking into acting and he got a teeny weenie roll in an Eddie Murphy movie.

I can't believe I forgot the Eddie Murphy movie.

But the clumps I don't know, but he played a driver and his only job in the scene was to wait for Eddie to get in the car and then literally drive the call forward for like whatever, thirty forty feet and stop before the sandbags, and then Eddie gets out of the car.

Okay, that's it.

And he was told, like Johnny Boy was told, listen, when Eddie gets in the car, it would be best if you didn't speak to him, okay, like, don't strike up a conversation or ask for an autograph.

He wouldn't like that, and Richie's like, no, of course not, I would never do that.

Richie, good looking bastard from the Bronx, always has a line of shit to throw the pretty girls.

Always done well with them too, married Raquel Welch, dated Priscilla Presley, among other beauties, so he knows his way around how to charm people, male or female.

Eddie Murphy gets in the car.

They're waiting for action to be called, and before it's called, Richie says to him in the rear view mirror, mister Murphy, I'll tell you right now, I'm gonna steal this scene right from under your ass.

You're not gonna know what hits, and of course Eddie Murphy dies laughing.

And now all these years later, whenever Eddie's nearby Richie's place on Camden, he stops for a pie or two to bring back to his family of what twenty five people I don't even know, but having heard those stories, I knew the minute I got cast in Rocky Balboa instead of like well, in addition to celebrating and going I can't believe this is happening, callin Rosalie, calling friends, what, I can't believe this happened to me.

I just was saying to my wife, I want to be in movies.

I gotta get more work.

And the phone rings and it's my manager.

They want you to read for Rocky six Rocky what.

It was insane, But then I knew, Oh, I gotta do the thing.

I gotta say.

I'm gonna steal this scene right from under you.

So I get the script.

I'm looking.

Yeah, there's scenes with me and Sly.

Okay, that's it, it's done.

I gotta do this.

My stomach is turning, not because I'm gonna go make a big movie, but because I gotta do this to one of my film heroes.

I got it.

This is like when I was younger.

Oh I'm always younger in my stories.

When I was doing a lot of TV, a lot of TV, and I would take Joey with me.

We go to the green room.

He got to see the whole way was the whole way this sausage was made.

The publicists meet you at the car, They walk you in the studio or in this case, the TV set, and they're going over the things you're gonna talk about, and Joan is very excited to see you, or Montela came, we could talk to you about this.

Make sure when you talk to Lisa you say all that kind of shit and you're like, you get makeup hearing these people talk.

I got you, no problem, don't want I got I got it.

And because it was boring and easy, Joey and I developed this game where and I've told you, he would give me things to say and try to sneak in the interview, which was I've on the air and we come He come up with like, Okay, can you say frozen peas during this interview about you know O J.

Simpson.

Yeah, I could do it.

And he would come up with these phrases the last minute and I say, okay, I gotta work in it.

And then all I was doing that TV show for whether it was Donnie Deutsch or CNN, it didn't matter.

I just wanted to make Joey laugh in the green room.

And it got to a point where Joey would tell the publicists of each respective show, this is what AJ's gonna do, this is what we do, and they would watch because they couldn't believe it, and I'd say, like, you know, O J.

Simpson, well you know he got Nicole and the family and Ronald Goleman, and now the Goldmans are saying they're never gonna get that money from OJ.

AJ.

Your take, And I'd say, well listen, I mean, look, they're never gonna get the money they're owed.

It's a it's a damn shame.

But you know what they're trying to do.

They're trying to get frozen peas out of a out of a out of a wet bag.

You're not gonna it made no sense, But all I know is that me and Joe were laughing, and on the way back home we would laugh our asses off that I got it in so I knew, oh fuck, I gotta tell sly, I want to take this scene out from NDI what do I do?

And I knew, you know, I knew Slide twenty years, for twenty years.

Ninety six doesn't sick.

No, it's only ten years.

Well, I knew Slight ten years before Rocky bell Ball, you know, met him in Miami, hung out of his house for a day, blah blah blah.

So we knew each other.

Then I get the role, and we're buddying around for three weeks whatever the fuck it was rehearsing, and I knew.

There's that scene in the restaurant in Philadelphia, Victor's Cafe on Dickinson in thirteenth famous place they called it Adrians for the movie.

Places filled with all his friends as extras, all these people who considers Fly the godfather to their baby son or daughter.

I mean it was like the pipe piper.

There are one hundred and fifty people outside the restaurant, all quote unquote related to Lie.

They weren't.

This is what I see every time I come to Philly.

It wouldn't even do.

It's a lot of love, you know.

So we're sitting down at the restaurant, we're getting and I hadn't worked for three or four weeks, so I'm a little rusty.

But of course he sits down.

We're getting ready, and I go, I'm sorry, slow, I'm gonna steal this scene right out from under you.

This is my shot.

There's nothing you can do about it.

My partner in the scene, Loud de Bella, almost died.

Sly laughed and said, good luck stealing the scene from Rocky.

You'd be the first.

But that's the way we handle things back in the day.

Fun fun, fun fun stuff, Hey, ed, very fun stuff.

I want to say this, by the way, today's show all over the board.

It's the way I feel.

I want to say, Uh, I cannot only blame black women anymore, black women in shower caps for acting a fool when the arrive wherever the fuck they are, CVS, Walmart, a red light, whatever.

You can't touch me.

You can't touch me, sir.

No, I will not give you my license.

I will not just it's well.

Now, there's a video of a white woman, a Rhode Island prosecutor no less, trying to school the police on the law.

And then she got schooled herself, and she got handcuffs put on her for trespassing, creating a wild scene outside this restaurant with her loudmouthed drunk girlfriend, all on bodycam footage.

Devin Hogan Flanagan again, the three named people.

Can't stand it?

Sorry, Dawn Marie Sullivan.

I don't like the three names.

I mean, in your case, it's one name.

But I'm not out for Joseph Benzon.

Can we stop?

Devon Hogan Flannagan is a special Assistant Attorney General, and she had the audacity to tell the officer that she he would regret this.

Don't ever tell cops you're gonna regret this.

There's not one cop that has regretted these things that happen on TV.

Remember Reese Witherspoon's drunken tirade.

Do you know who I am?

Oh, don't ever say that either.

Whenever you're in the back of a patrol car, shut your mouth.

So this body cam footage you can look at.

It shows her telling the cops constantly.

She's an ag attorney general.

I'm an agg.

You can't do this.

I'm an agg.

They can do whatever the fuck they want their police and they can put their hands on you, you know what, because they're the law.

How do people not know this?

And she's ordering cops to turn off their body cameras, like what, she's gonna make a citizen arrest.

It's so stupid, and the cops are like not laughing, but you know they're laughing.

Now.

Her buddy, Veronica Hennan, who you don't need to be your buddy.

She got real mouthy.

You don't need friends like this.

And she's telling cops you need to listen to her because she's a lawyer.

Could you imagine.

Have you ever seen a video where one cop goes, I'm sorry, wait, you're a lawyer, give me the key, take the cuffs off her.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't know you studied law.

Oh my god, please don't report this.

I want to lose my job.

Ma'am, ma'am did you just start to call me han?

No?

Man, please, it never happens, because it's not gonna happen.

Take your fucking licks, stay away.

She's a lawyer.

Cops are trying to arrest her.

She puts up a fight.

She's in a fucking evening gown.

I don't care who your opponent is.

Don't fight with an evening on on.

And of course you know she's twisting her arm so police can't cuff her hands, and she breaks away at one point.

Very bad idea.

Of course, they eventually shove her inside the patrol car.

That's why cops come and bulk or call for backup.

They don't want to fight you one on one or two on one.

Let's make it five on one.

You're going away.

You could hear a staff member tell the police to remove them and take the cuffs off them.

It look it all goes downhill.

She got charged with willful trespass and she got a summons, both of them did, and Hanan got the resisting arrest.

Blah blah blah.

But all these two idiots had to do was walk away from this restaurant.

And the man inside said they would try whatever the fuck they were.

They have too long, I don't know, Just walk away.

My father always told me, as a former cop, you ever get arrested, It's like he was predicting the future with me.

I've been busted three or four times.

Be a gentleman.

Be a gentleman.

Don't be the kind of guys I dealt with.

And he always told me, and I've said this before, he'd the rest Italian gangsters.

They would turn around and put their hands behind it back before you even were asked to do so.

But if they went into a tenement in Harlem with blacks or Puerto Ricans, but have you this is way back in the fifties and sixties, well they would put up a fight.

Not only not, they had people on the roof of those buildings, those tenements who would throw bowling balls and pails of cement off the roof, hoping to kill an arresting officer.

My fellow always said, put your hands behind your back.

They got you.

It's cat and mouse, that's it.

And when I got busted, you know, there's five guys coming up your driveway, you know, ones in front, there's two on each side of you, and one behind you.

Just comply like I did with that wonderful policeman and wanted to impound my car because of a hit and run while I parked the car.

No, it's more like two Russians or Armenians looking to get me in some insurance scam.

They should have at least damaged their front bumper.

But no, So I called my insurance company today and alerted them to this fact.

They said, don't worry, mister Benson.

They're gonna have to if they call.

We don't do anything until we call you and let you know what's going on.

Then present me all the information you have, the video you took.

Don't worry about it.

But I did go down to the precinct to lodge a complaint against this cop.

Oh yeah, Oh I did that.

Listen, that's my right.

It's my right as a citizen, is it not.

I went there with the stupid fucking piece of paper that was written up.

I said, listen, you know, can I watch a complain?

I've never done this in my life.

Yeah.

Sure.

I tell the guy what's going on?

Why the fuck with this cop?

Sir?

The language?

Okay, we're just two guys talking.

Why the hell would this cop come to this call and make it a hit and fucking run when I'm in my on my couch laying down.

I mean, this is obviously a money grab a tent by these fucking people.

What's wrong happening?

Not know this?

Tell't to go away?

No, well, wait, will certainly look into it.

Blob.

I just wanted to be there and say it.

This camera's there, good, let them show I was there.

I'm prepared.

But I said to the guy, there are better things you guys can do when you come to that neighborhood.

I never saw two cop cars on my block.

But if you go two blocks up, you'll see crack deals, you'll see prostitutes Sunday morning.

It doesn't matter.

When just take a fucking trip around a block.

We will do that.

Yeah, well you haven't done it in eight months.

Let me know when you start.

Anyhow, let's move on to some celebrity news.

We're only twenty one minutes into the show.

The Great Terrance Stamp has died.

I love Terrence Stamp.

Most of you know him from Superman.

He played General Zod.

Eighty seven years old.

Died the other day.

Very colorful life.

I'll be honest.

I'm not a big Superman and I saw a Superman as a kid whatever, as a young kid, a young adult, whatever, you know.

I remember him.

He didn't leave a mark playing General Zod.

I gotta be honest.

People act like here's General Zod.

I don't really care to remember that movie.

It's not what I think is great acting.

That's a paycheck role.

But uh, look, great guy, working class guy, tough kid, got to the top in the sixties, well, you know, rose to the spotlight in the sixties, had several claims to fame.

He was very good friends with Princess Diana.

He was roommates with Michael Caine when he was younger, and he had affairs with Bridget Bardoux, Julie Christie.

I love those two and Gene Shrimpton, who was a gorgeous supermodel back in the day.

But they people like to say he was romantically involved with Princess Danna.

He wasn't.

He was and he just loved being around her.

Also roommates with Michael Kaine, as I said, And you know, back then they were young, and Michael Kaine would try to tell him what to do with your career, and he would give an advice.

He would give young Tarrant Stamp a voice Michael Kaine.

I'm Michael Kaine, Michael Kain giving Tarrant Stamp advice.

All acting see, I have to hold my nose when you do an impression of Michael Kain.

It's always important you remember that the voice is coming from behind your nose.

Michael Okay, okay, this is my okay, And you have to remember one thing you guys out there doing impressions.

If you want to do a quick impression at the party there, sir, I can help you.

Always remember when you say his name, don't say Michael Kane, say my cocaine, Michae Okay, Hello, I'm Michael.

Okay, Michael okay.

See that's how he sounds.

But he wasn't romantic with Princess Die.

He says they were just good chums.

He loved hanging around her.

I can understand that she was one of those guy girls.

And I met her twice, shook her hand.

Can't say I got a lot out of it, but I do think she was a special person, and I love the way she played the press.

I was almost on my way.

I was on my way out at that point.

So you know, she came to New York and when she came bought the whole city shut down and I forget where we were would party, but whatever.

She made herself available to the press, and she was as sharp as attack.

But he pegged her right and when he said she just wanted someone to talk to, she wasn't really happy.

And they opened up to each other and you know, just two Brits having some fun, eh, but that supermodel Genie Shrimpton.

It sucks that she's eighty two.

Now.

I hate the beautiful people get older.

That was the love of his life way back in nineteen sixty four.

I'm two years old and he said, just to lay owz on her was amazing.

We were together for three years.

She left me because she saw I was a lunatic.

I wasn't ready for twin soul relationship.

Listen, I've never said it perfectly like that, but I've said to you before.

The girlfriends who suffered with me, Michelle Brando, e Dollars de Leon, there was a few of them who I was not at my best, even Andrea recently wasn't at my best, and you lose people because of that.

He only got married once, had no kids.

The woman he did marry it was kind of weird.

He was sixty four, she was twenty nine.

But I love this guy's acting.

He was something special, one of those guys who was their own worst enemy.

You know, he could have done so much more.

But it's like Shilah Buff, like great Shilah Buff is a phenomenal actor.

But of course he he fucks himself up.

You know, he just does and it's a shame, but yeah, those were I mean, you know, Stamp never became a huge star, but after the seventies he kind of just disappeared.

There was a point where he was actually looked at to replace Sean Connery as James Bond.

You talk about a life changing moment, and he was recorded as saying, uh, I don't know why it didn't happen.

I was in my prime when the sixties ended.

All just ended with it, you know.

And I gotta tell you I feel the same way about the nineties.

I feel like when the nineties ended, I ended with it.

I really do.

I just thought of watching the Netflix doc about the Dallas Cowboys' lore in the nineties.

You know what that whole franchise meant the football?

What it means the football.

It's Jerry Jones, the owner, It's Troy Aikman, the quarterback, emittt Smith the running back, Michael Irvin the superstar wide receiver.

These guys won three Super Bowls in four years back in the nineties.

And I'm telling Ruckley, you gotta watch this documentary.

I know you don't know enough about the Cowboys, but you gotta look at Michael Irvin.

He's going to court for his cocaine conviction.

It's hot outside.

I think it was summer.

This guy's wearing a full length mink coat with a hat.

And I said, that was the nineties and your father was there for every second of it.

Oh what a great time, crazy time.

But yeah, the phone stopped ringing.

I know that feeling, and it's tough.

You wake up in the morning, you think you're doing great, you're young, you're popping.

All of a sudden, the phone stop.

Is it working?

You check the connection, you call friends, Is my phone working?

I mean he gets that.

It gets that paranoid and you called, Yeah, I got your call.

I didn't know if it was working.

Why, man, I just you know, having gotten a call for days.

So tern Stan couldn't stand it, got on airplane and went around the world.

He stopped in India, got involved in yoga, vegetarianism.

I don't know how that, I mean, why is that interesting?

He lived in an ashram, he said.

Federico Fellini introduced him to the Indian mystic Christa Murty, and that got him interested.

One thing I gotta tell you, one thing I cannot get into is Indian culture.

There's too many variables.

I don't like that rats crawl across their food in the street and they eat it, and they spend time with rats, and they jump in the Ganges River which got shit and dead bodies around, and they brush their teeth in there and washed their come on.

And it's not like I don't like Indian people.

I do.

I mean, the woman who ran the travel loge on Jana, what a great lady.

I mean.

I don't think I haven't been a nicer person in person.

I swear to God.

We still talk in text to this day.

I don't stay there anymore.

I stayed there when the air conditioning broke.

I don't go there.

But we left such a mark on each other.

And she's such a caring person that I always want her in my life.

I bring her gifts, I bring her candles, coffee for her and the girls who cleaned the room up.

You know, I just my father's cancer doctor, Abou doctor albu Mohedon actually Jack's doctor.

Two same doctor, same cancer doctor.

You know how much you revere those guys who are trying to repair the two biggest men in your life.

A bull moheedon the best bedside manner I've ever seen.

Always began his visits in the hospital or or in his room at his office, while he'd walk in loud and say why are you here?

Why are you here?

You don't need to be here.

Come on now, why are you here?

None home?

And then he would smile and I'd see those big white teeth and those purple gums, yes, those lavender colored gums, which many Indians have.

The point is this, it's not the people.

I love Bollywood movies.

The women are beautiful, the men are tough to see.

The movie are are are for Christ's sake.

But these minutes, everybody's got the best, most healthy, beautiful, shiny black hair.

It's not the people, it's the country.

I can't.

I feel like, Okay, in my mind's most warped idea about my life.

If you take your life and stretch it to ridiculous proportions, which I do sometimes just to amuse myself, Suddenly I'm out one night at a restaurant and me and free to pinto lockeyes, and I look like me and she looks like her, and for some reason we are hooked on each other.

And as she's leaving, I go I can't believe this.

I always wanted to meet you.

I just think you're so beautiful.

Do you have to leave now?

I just got here.

No, I will stay with you.

Oh my god.

And now me and free to Pinto are having a fun night where regaling each other with's what was slum Dog Millionaire like?

Oh?

What was gossip like in the nineties.

We're having a great fucking time.

But I but at the same time, this is what my warped mind tells myself.

I know it's a dream, it'll never happen, but I go, well, if she did like me or love me, at some point, she'd have to say to me, we have to go to India to meet my parents.

And I know, oh shit.

First of all, that flight okay.

Second of all, I'm never gonna get the smell out of curry.

Now, I'm never gonna curry out of my clothes because that's what they cook with constantly.

I gotta really think about, do I want to be with Freeda Pento and smell like curry forever?

I know it's crazy.

And by the way, I fell for a girl who was born in India to very wealthy parents, raised in boarding schools in England.

Beautiful woman.

I'm talking Sophie Laren type.

I'm not lying.

She was a publicist for Howard Rubinstein and associates when I first began gossip, and her voice got me so hooked on her that I imagine this one has to be beautiful an English accent.

This is before I knew she was Indian.

But the last name Actar was, you know, obvious to me.

Kim.

Why are so many foreign people from other countries named their daughter Kim when they want to, I guess americanize them.

Don't name your daughter Kim or Amanda or Mary.

Go what's your fucking name from your country.

It's sexier, it's better.

You don't need to make them integrate into culture.

If your daughter's beautiful, she'd be fine.

Named ass wipe, it doesn't matter, okay.

But Kim had the English accent coming out of her Indian mouth.

It was so sexy.

We go to this restaurant called Rosolio.

We began to have dates and go there, and it was so romantic.

It was right next to the most romantic restaurant in the world in New York City named one If by Land, two If by Sea, and it's it was right next door on Barrow Street, probably the most beautiful, quaint street in Manhattan, Commerce Street, Barrow Street, it looks like you're in Europe.

It's amazing.

And we'd go there and I'd be so enchanted by the face, the voice, the accent, everything sounded sexy.

But sometimes she'd drop all the niceties she learned in school right and the Indian would come out, the Bombay would come out of her.

It was actually sweet because she would get to a point in his story and I would I would tell a story and I'd try to explain something or who somebody was, and in the middle of the stuctuy go, she said, not knowing, not knowing what word to say, not knowing, not knowing.

No one says not knowing, honey, and then she'd giggle.

She eventually became Dan Rather's guy Friday.

She was his executive assistant for years at CBS.

And I've told you about her.

I mean Dan tried and tried.

Oh he was a pussy hound that Dan Rather man told you about that too, But she would eventually admit to me that.

Of course, when they were away in Europe or some far flung place, because Dan was always out there interviewing world leaders and luminaries, et cetera.

He would inevitably invite her up to his suite where he ordered champagne, and he would ask her to he would ask her to read him Homer's The Iliad, because like me, he fell for that voice.

Anyhow, tripped down memory lane nineties.

What can I tell you?

I see my life ended there too.

Gotta admit Terence Stamp, you know, bounce Back nailed that role General Zade and Superman did it again in the sequel.

Did some good movies, but then his career kind of just didn't really pop like it should have, especially with the old the promise he had in his early years.

And I don't know, it's a weird thing he played.

I mean, look, he took the role in Superman.

He acts like you know, well, I took the role and I didn't want to feel embarrassed and depressed about playing the villain.

Oh look, you took the role because of the money.

I understand that we all do things like that.

I don't blame you.

Sure it was a good payday.

I'm not sure what he got for Superman two.

But on this latest Superman okay, which is a hit, which I said it would be a hit.

The director, James Gunn was paid fifteen million dollars to direct this movie.

The guy who played Superman, David Corn, sweat the worst name ever.

I predict a dismal Hollywood career after this.

He made seven hundred and fifty grand, so did his co star Rachel Brosnahan and Nicholas Holt, who plays Lex Luthor, made two million.

I don't know, I look like I like character actors, and Stamp was one of the best.

And he had very eccentric habits.

He never owned a home, but he did buy homes for many people.

He bought homes for his parents, his aunt because he never felt he needed one.

I know the exact same feeling.

I would do the same thing because I love everybody around me, being happy.

I can live anywhere.

It doesn't even today and walking back to my apartment coming back from this running an errand this morning, and I just done a show with Mike and Arena, and you know, Mike has a beautiful home, has had beautiful homes forever.

Kenny, of course, and Arena beautiful Palm Beach.

Kenny's had multiple homes, still does.

And here I'm walking back to my apartment and I just it doesn't matter to me.

It just doesn't matter.

Yeah, we all want to die with assets and be worth money.

I understand that, but it's late in the game.

It's the fucking eighth inning of my life, maybe the seventh, if I'm gonna be hopeful it is what it is.

But I like where I'm at.

I don't need a lot.

I can't explain it.

I don't need a lot.

But to me, Terence Stamp dying means we lost a really good, classically trained actor.

And you know how much I love guys like that.

I don't think a guy like him ever had a career strategy.

You go from playing a villain and superman to a drag queen and the Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

Now you're playing then at the end you're playing granddads.

That's the very finition of an actor.

You can keep your general Zod or anything else he did.

Do yourselves a favor.

Jock this down.

Go watch a movie called Volimey.

It's a Steven Soderbergh pick right during his heyday nineteen ninety nine.

God, I wanted to, Oh my god.

For many years, I worked next to Jules Asner at E she was on the news, very sexy, pretty girl, a little bit, you know, like forty torty kind of shit like she wouldn't have her parents wouldn't have approved of me.

But Jules would have wanted to tumble for a night or two, because we had plenty of times together.

And suddenly she's with Steven Soderberg and I knew, Okay, that's it.

She's done.

She locked herself up.

She's gonna make, you know, have a great life for the guy that makes a lot of money, and he's absolutely homely.

But those are the decisions some women make.

Could have had me and lived in this two bedroom apartment.

I don't know why she didn't want to do that.

Go watch Ti Limi.

It's about Terence Stamp being a very volatile and dangerous Englishman who goes to Los Angeles to find the man he thinks his responsible for killing his daughter.

And I love films with this premise.

George She Scott did it many years ago in a film called Hardcore.

He's a businessman, Georgie Scott, fucking tremendous actor, a businessman whose daughter is a teenager disappears.

She's on a church trip to California.

He finds out she's involved in the in the porn business.

He goes out there on this dark journey to find her.

Watch that also, Bob Hoskins did it.

Mona Lisa is the name of the film, and Nat king Cole sings it in the movie plenty of times.

Bob plays an ex convict whose daughter gets entangled in a very dangerous uh well.

He gets with this this coal girl, high class coral girl named Tyson, and he's her driver, and she begins to tell him she thinks her daughter has been taking hostage and her pimp is to blame.

So Hoskins, who's already fallen in love with this hooker, begins to try to help her.

It's not hard to fall for this hooker played by Kathy Tyson.

Cicily, Tyson's niece actually very sexy in the movie.

Check it out, but see the liney.

Not only teren Stamp, you got Peter Fonda, you got a nineteen ninety nine version of George Cooney coming off the movie Out of Sight that Soderbergh also directed.

This is one him and I were hanging out if you can believe it.

And one of the sexiest chicks to ever come out of the seventies, Leslie Ann Warren elis Elie y Okay, we's spelling it different for a goddamn reason.

She ain't your Leslie.

Oh she was so hot.

And it's got Luis Guzman.

I fucking hate him.

He plays the same guy and every movie he's even in and the guy lives high in the hog on a big ranch someplace.

It pisses me off.

He's not a good actor.

Can stay.

And as a treat we get Barry Newman AJ Who's Barry Newman.

Barry Newman was a detective in my youth on a TV show called Petra Celly on Italian as a detective that was a thing for a while.

It was required viewing in my house.

So was Tony Mussante and a detective show called Toma.

Oh you have no idea, you had to watch it.

It was like back then.

We get the election, you know, the voting ballot that come in to mail for local elections, towns, supervisor, city plan and all this bullshit.

My mother would just go vote for the Tians and vote for the both family's handsome I'm not trying to make my mother sound dumb.

That's what a lot of people did back then.

I think they still do it to a large degree.

It's obviously hurt out of country because well, for obvious reasons, they're not voting for someone who really is doing the best for their particular city, state, or town.

They're voting based on ethnicity and good looks.

And if that's the case, well we know Gavin Newscomb, the governor out of Shipsville, is going to get some votes in twenty twenty eight.

Don't want them pretend to you he's not running.

He's running.

He's getting ready right now, trying to be the left version of Donald Trump, and it's going to fail miserably.

But don't want to stray too far.

Terrence Stamp, if I were, well, it's too late now, but he had some beauties in his day.

And we always talk about women getting the tramp stamp tattoo on their back.

What if all those women we've got the tramp stamp I got a picture of Terence Stamp on their lower back.

That would make guys like me thrilled to be behind them and not see the initials of their ex christ.

I married one.

I'm aj Benz, and that was your daily Unfiltered podcast for August twenty, twenty twenty five.

Talk to this tomorrow
