00:00Okay, King and Michael Key, thank you so much for stopping.
00:08It is a big night for you guys.
00:10Just coming from the premiere, I guess.
00:12Yes, it went really, really, really well.
00:14Yeah? Yeah.
00:15I mean, all the right responses in all the right places.
00:17And it was really magical tonight.
00:19I was really happy.
00:20And everybody's just, you can see that there's a thirst for Eddie.
00:24Yes.
00:25That people have missed Eddie.
00:26We missed him, and we can see that the crowd here tonight missed him.
00:29Well, I wanted to ask you, so as a very funny guy, you know, growing up very funny,
00:34and was he like a, he must have been like a hero.
00:36My hero.
00:37My hero.
00:38My idol.
00:39He's literally my idol.
00:40It never occurred to me in my life that I'd be able to do comedy or that was a job that you can do.
00:44And then when I saw him perform and listen to his albums with my friends and saw him on Saturday Night Live,
00:48that was it.
00:49I was just like, what is this?
00:50No, I didn't ever think I was going to be a comedian.
00:52I went to school to be a dramatic actor.
00:53Right.
00:54But then things turned in that direction, and so much of it, I owe so much of it to him.
00:58Yeah.
00:59So, last question.
01:00If you, I know they probably keep you very busy here while, you know, press or whatever,
01:04but if you could get three hours to go see some other movie, based on what you've heard, what would you like to go see?
01:10I'd like to see the Mr. Rogers film, and I'd also like to see Ford v Ferrari.
01:14That's the one I really like.
01:15Those are the two movies I'd like to see.
01:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:17Thank you for stopping by himself.
