00:00Would you please welcome, Moshe Kasher!
00:16Alright, called me a gentleman, I see you haven't seen my comedy.
00:23No, but I have seen your wife, I didn't realize it.
00:26Wait, what do you mean you've seen my wife?
00:28In what state?
00:29On TV.
00:30Oh, okay.
00:31I didn't realize that you were married to Natasha Lagaro.
00:34Yeah, yeah.
00:35Now, how does Moshe...
00:38You know, I don't like where this question is going already.
00:41Get an Italian girl and get her to convert.
00:46Well, Jews are just Italians with worse food.
00:49Isn't that known?
00:50I thought that was known.
00:52And the way that I got her to convert was I forced her.
00:55I see.
00:57Like the good Jew that you are.
00:58That's right.
01:00No, she was ready to exit the Catholic school program that she had grown up with, and I
01:05provided an alternative.
01:07Was it a theological thing?
01:10Was it a philosophical thing?
01:12Yeah, she's a deeply devout Jew at this point.
01:14Well, I've noticed over the years that the worst Jews are the converted ones.
01:20They are just...
01:21They'll drive you crazy.
01:22Oh.
01:23They drive Jews crazy.
01:24Which is very difficult to do.
01:26You know, to annoy a Jew is a truly...
01:28That is something.
01:30No, you know, hey, I'm very lucky that she chose to do that with my extreme suggestions.
01:37And now here we are.
01:40And you have a new baby, don't you?
01:42Yeah, we brought a new Jew into the world.
01:43A new Jew into the world.
01:45All right.
01:46Well, we don't do missionary work, so you have to create a squad of your own.
01:51All right.
01:52Now, did you go with the circumcised type, or did you go with the...
01:54Oh, she's a girl.
01:56She's a girl.
01:56So, yeah.
01:57We went for it.
01:59Yeah.
01:59I just wanted to make...
02:01I wanted to ask...
02:02You know, I grew up in a very Italian slash Jewish neighborhood.
02:08Maybe they were Italian or Jewish, there was nobody else around.
02:10Okay.
02:11One Irish guy showed up, he says, no way, there's no bars.
02:13All right.
02:13So, but one of the things they always used to throw in my face is, ha ha, you got hell,
02:18we don't have hell.
02:19Oh, no hell.
02:20No, but hell, we brought hell to earth in the form of our mothers.
02:24I see.
02:25I see.
02:26We bring hell in real time.
02:28Yeah.
02:28This is really cool.
02:30It feels like eternity.
02:31That's all.
02:33So, what is life...
02:34This is your first child.
02:35What is life with a newborn like?
02:39It's incredibly easy.
02:41Primarily, it's easy to be a parent.
02:43Everybody knows that.
02:44A lot of people ask you, they go, like, how are you sleeping?
02:47And it's like, it's so...
02:48I don't even understand the question.
02:49It's so easy to sleep with a newborn.
02:51Here's what you do.
02:52You go to sleep at night.
02:53If at some point in the night the baby begins to cry, the lady who sleeps next to you
02:57goes and takes care of the baby.
02:58And then you sleep in, you go surfing with your buddies.
03:00It's really cool.
03:05Are you...
03:06Do you find yourself becoming a doting parent?
03:08Are you there with the bottles and the...
03:10Oh, yeah.
03:11No, I love her.
03:12She's great.
03:13She's great.
03:13My wife is great.
03:15No, it's very sweet.
03:17It's a very sweet experience.
03:19You know, she's starting to crawl and stuff like that.
03:21She's starting to take over the various zones of our house.
03:24So, you know...
03:24Yeah, no, I'm a doting.
03:26I'm a doting.
03:27I'm a doting father.
03:28But, you know, the show is X-rated.
03:29So, don't expect that you're going to get me...
03:31I feel like I'm coming across like Dr. Phil up here.
03:35But, no, I...
03:36But I will say that, you know, in the beginning, you know, you have to feed babies all the time,
03:44you know, and I don't...
03:46I'm not like a natural-born parent like some people are, and so my wife would always come
03:51into the room and I would be feeding the baby, but I would have, like, World Star Hip-Hop
03:54fight compilation videos.
03:56Like, she would be hearing these, like, you know, screaming Waffle House fights and be
04:00like, what is happening?
04:01And this, like, innocent little child, I'm, like, you know, rocking her back and forth
04:05while I'm watching these, like, horrible violent videos.
04:07She's like, somehow that's getting in the baby's brain.
04:09Don't do that anymore.
04:10Your kid's first word is going to be yelling, World Star!
04:14Now, you're originally from New York, but you, basically, you're really from Oakland.
04:24I'm from Oakland, yes, yes, yes.
04:26A classic Oakland guy.
04:27All right, all right.
04:28And you had a baseball question, didn't you?
04:30I did.
04:30Well, I said, I'm sorry about the baseball game the other night.
04:32And I said, I don't know what baseball is.
04:35Take a look at me.
04:37Analyze who you're talking to right now.
04:39But I assumed that the baseball squad lost, and I, it was great.
04:44They were dispatched by a team called the Yankees.
04:46Oh, I've heard of them.
04:47Okay.
04:48That's right.
04:48Yes, yes.
04:49The old, the old, uh, the old, uh, Bronx, uh, Bombers.
04:54Bombers.
04:54Yeah.
04:54Those, those guys, huh?
04:55Mickey Mantle or something.
04:57Yeah, it's a homerun reference.
04:58Oh, man.
04:58They're still playing.
04:59Mantle.
04:59You can't get past the, oh, yeah, the babe.
05:02Yeah, baby, baby, baby Ruth.
05:04Can't get past the candy bar of baseball.
05:06You know, that's what they say.
05:08Did you grow up, you know, liking sports at all?
05:11And being in New York, did you, I guess, go to basketball or anything?
05:13He left New York when he was nine months old.
05:14Yeah, that's right.
05:15Oh, I wasn't.
05:16I'm sorry.
05:16I missed that.
05:16Never mind.
05:17Well, growing up in New York until you were nine months old, did you like basketball?
05:20I loved basketball.
05:22But, uh, junior squad, junior squad.
05:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:24Um, uh, do I like sports?
05:26Is that what you're asking?
05:27I just, I figured, growing up in New York, but I didn't realize you left.
05:29What is the answer to that question that will get people to come to my show?
05:32Uh, I love the Eagles.
05:33Yeah, do an Eagles chant.
05:34I love the Eagles, baby.
05:35Eagles.
05:36I love the dance.
05:37I love the, oh, man, I love the, they soar through the sky like the freedom that we so enjoy
05:44here in this, in this land.
05:45Eagle, Eagle, Eagle, baby.
05:49Yeah, Sam.
05:50Wise Sam.
05:52Wise Sam.
05:54That was two years ago.
05:55Oh.
05:55You do understand what sport they play.
05:58The Eagles are a football team.
06:01They're a football team.
06:02And wait a minute.
06:02They won the Super Bowl.
06:04Yeah!
06:04I believe my cab driver told me that on the way here.
06:08Fairly certain your show's just sold out.
06:10Yes.
06:12No, actually, this is true.
06:13The entire team is coming to all of the shows.
06:17All four?
06:18All four of the shows.
06:19Wow.
06:19So if you come to any of the shows, you'll be able to meet and greet with the Eagles after
06:23the show.
06:24And Gritty's doing security.
06:25Yeah, it's good.
06:26So, I mean, look, they asked me not to say anything, but I just couldn't, I couldn't.
06:30Cats out of the bag.
06:31Yeah, Eagles out of the bag, you guys.
