S7E39: Bruce Wagner and Beverly D'Angelo, Part 2

Comments

Late review. Loved this one. Loved Bruce as a host, I find his voice to be so soothing, seems like an interesting gentleman (the part about the knife turning him pt 1, I think)

Carrie Fisher would be a great guest on BEE if she was alive.

Marko Mancic

1) During her interview on Late Night with David Letterman (August 11th, 1986), actress, singer, & comedienne Beverly D’Angelo A) wears a frizzy blonde hairdo swept off its haunches by a hot desert wind B) displays the quick, punchy timing of a scrawny cornered gangster C) covers The Rolling Stones on concertina, or D) sneezes on a candelabra from the séance kit that she keeps in her purse 2) D’Angelo enters Late Night from the green room. In Latin (Javanese, and Kurdish) “green room” means A) Land of Giant Vegetables B) Holographic jungle enclosure C) The “Whites Only” section of a gay bar, or D) subterranean cannabis plantation 3) Crossing the stage, D’Angelo’s A) entrance beckons the broad, sheepish glamour of a grown-up Prom Queen B) hips swivel like a seasoned catwalker leading up to the moment when she plants a tangy kiss on Letterman’s canned cornfed cheek C) applause quotient duplicates the sound of the perfect rain falling on a road designed for overcoming insomnia D) marriage to Duke Lorenzo is put to the test 4) As Miss Ponderosa Steakhouse (1973), Beverly D’Angelo A) toured India with bodyguards and a portable trap door B) protested the human condition C) played the part of a Bond girl starving on top of the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Plaza D) was cursed to raise two normal children 5) Awash in praise, the gobsmacked D’Angelo plunks down in Late Night’s guest chair and mouths “__________” to a throng of soused clergymen. A) Stop it B) Shoot me C) Do me E) I can’t breathe

Loved The Holdovers. I was shocked to find out that was Dominic’s first role in a movie.

Justin

Incredible

Sam Leuenberger

I think he mentioned this in his monologue about Dune.

Justin

These two episodes with D’Angelo were really good and refreshing. To hear someone who has worked in Hollywood for so long speak honestly and openly. A rare thing!

Dan

Beverly Deangelo was fantastic and insightful. I hope she comes back

Michael Bronspigel

This was gold.

Phoenix

Since no one’s listening to these, highly recommend the holdovers, touches of Bennington, the secret history, and Dominic Sessa would make a great Matt Kelner

Nat

Haven’t even bothered with these guest episodes but holy shit I need a lengthy Bret monologue soon. Read something, movie review, just uninterrupted Bret

Charlie C

Good one. Thanks Beverly.

Mary Walker

Very unusual to hear an actress talk so intimately about personal relationships - enjoyed it.

GC

You could send the podcast message here, it might get looked at

Alex Waller

Bruh

Jim Seem

Was not exactly what I signed up for, but surprisingly entertaining. Bet Pacino will be pleased.

Mark Scherrer

Does anyone have any knowledge of how to contact Bret? I'm trying to find a podcast from the past couple years which contains particular sentences about the film viewing experience. But short of listening to every podcast I can't locate the lines I'm looking for. I feel that he might just remember if asked. As opposed to going through Andrew Townsend...

Rhianna Turnbull

Thanks, yeah it's a good topic.

Rhianna Turnbull

Don’t know the exact episode(s), but he has referred many times to the “control” dynamics in the experience of watching a film in theater vs streaming at home — which probably relates to your pull quote

Devon H. Dolan

... unrelated to this episode. Does anyone remember the episode in which Bret refers to his experience of watching a film as 'letting the film fuck you' 'acquiescing to the film' Many thanks - any leads

Rhianna Turnbull

Hat tip to Beverly and Bruce!

Dave

Best Eagles story yet!

Dave

Really boring stuff

Russell Reese

Please come back, Bret.

Jonathan Davis

Love hearing ppl like Beverly as if they’re right here in my living room.

Brent L. Smith

Unreal. I'm finally going to have to unsubscribe for now. Maybe I'll come back in the future.

Tom Syverson

Bret can't do a 1 hour podcast from Europe? Cmonmnnn

Dave Mason

I love these episodes!

Elizabeth

am going to listen on my run. will say more later, after my run.

richard owain roberts

This was really great.

Kerry

Compared to Sam Wasson and that lady who sounded like Trump, these two have beautiful voices.

Keith campbell

I love this episode

PETER GREER

Great conversation, one of the best !

John Pineda

One of the best episodes - this show outdoes itself again - thank you for sharing your unforgettable story
