He's honest? He's saying he did the wrong thing, that he was offensive to the audience and they should have responded. More like a sissy to me. I've been a fan for 30 plus years. So disappointed by this interview and I won't listen to him again
Funny enough, "being honest" and never pandering to the crowds who threaten to cancel you is by today's definition "refreshing", whereas in Dice's day and before (Carlin, Murphy, Pryor, Kinison, Hicks, Foxx, etc) being honest was just regular mode of operations.
Back in the 90’s, I was in my early 30’s. One of the last times the entire gang of friends and wives got together for a July 4 beach weekend. Long story short, after the wives and kids were asleep, we were already blotto drunk when a couple joints get lit. Then somebody put a Dice tape on, and about a dozen of us laughed for 2-3 hours like we haven’t laughed in forever. It is a magical memory. Thank you Dice. 😊
Andy and Paulie Shore were both fads. Neither of these guts understand that. Fame slapped them around and left them wondering what happened back in 1989.
Still my favorite Dice LP. I like how it was recorded. Instead of doing it in a big arena with an audience that loved him, it was recorded at Dangerfield's with an audience of people who HATED him! It was brilliant!
I consider that performance as one of the greatest moments in comedy. He improvised his routine, worked and bonded with the crowd, then destroyed them, and sent them home. It is pure genius.
I first listened to this album in the beginning of Covid Lockdown. I hadn’t laughed that hard in years and it was like therapy for me, especially in an overly sensitive world.
@@jasonlee186o he is right. Sensitive like you. Bottom feeders like yourself who think they hold a profound wisdom which society lacks the sensibility to hear. When in reality people like you just pass around various conspiracy theories and hate speech to cover up for your inadequacies
Andrew Dice Clay is the fuckin' man! I grew up listening to his comedic talents during the late 1980s thru the early 1990s, and he was not only hilarious, but he was also powerful! I, as a Brooklynite, always related very well to his attitude, delivery, and brutal humor. I met him at his book signing and he was humble and appreciative. I ran into him a couple of years later at a local grocery store in Sherman Oaks, a suburb of LA, and he was a complete gentleman. It's a shame that in today's society of weak and hypocritical people, a comedian like Dice would be canceled! That's un-American. I highly recommend his autobiography called THE FILTHY TRUTH! It's an excellent read. And by the way, Rick Rubin only made contributions to hip-hop. He didn't create anything. It was created by young Black men in the South Bronx. He was inspired by the talent and culture that was already established. LONG LIVE THE COMEDIC GENIUS OF ANDREW DICE CLAY!
I'm in my early 20s.. found a bootleg burnt CD of Diceman Cometh with No Apologies as well, listened to them at 12 years old- some of it went over my head but most of it had me rolling, I'm a fan to this day. the only good thing my worst ex ever did for me was give me Day the Laughter Died Part II for my birthday
@Alex Burns I still have the double cassette THE DAY THE LAUGHTER DIED from 1990. That performance turned me into the DICE fan that I am today. Rick Rubin being involved was also impressive to me as a hip-hop fan from NYC!
You know how many plays you can get from a professionally made cassette without any noticeable quality drop? 😂 It’s not that you listened to it so much, it’s that you were a child and didn’t take care of it (kid-me was guilty of this too) I do still have a few cassettes that I got later on as a teen though, when I was _little_ more responsible, that I always stored in the case. They’ll still play as if I bought them last week practically
I was a huge fan of Dice back in the early 90s when I was a kid but man this podcast was bit hard to listen to. It seems to me like Dice really wanted to be a big shot actor / entertainer and never really accomplished that so he just talks about how he almost did and sounds like a man with lots of regrets. It was the same vibe I got from him when he was on the Apprentice a few years back. A comedian legend like him should just forget about Hollywood and just focus on stand up.
I remember watching and listening to the diceman and really sort of realizing that the good times were really coming to an end. When I saw him on some show crying, I knew that cancel culture was real. I didn't know what it was called, but I knew they were going to start coming for everything fun....and they did, and they still are.
My favorite scene with Dice is the one in Amazon Women On the Moon. It's so dark but you can't stop laughing. He's maybe the only person who could've pulled off that scene.
@@gatchrocks I think that's a really good point but I wonder if that's his choice or if it's because studios are scared to take a chance on giving him the role? If you were given the task and responsibilities to cast actors for certain roles and it's a multi million dollar movie, would you risk your movie casting Dice in a role nobody could see him playing? I have a theory that many comedians are just amazing actors with a sense of humor that don't realize they're amazing actors. Especially ones that have the ability to do impressions. Early in his career If I'm not mistaken, Dice did some funny impressions. To become someone else like that, it takes the skill of acting. Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Robin Williams are a few example. All won oscars too. I feel the same way about comedians that are flamboyant and I don't mean in the (for the lack of a better word) "gay" way. The ones who have a larger than life personality. They have a confidence and a comfort being the star in the spotlight. So again, you're correct. We've seen very limited range but I wonder why? What sucks is, I don't think we will ever find out the answer to that. He's older now and still carries some of the burdens from being canceled decades ago on his shoulders.
Angry when people don’t get his satirical persona and think it’s funny. Angry when someone (who isn’t the “right” kinda person) does. Something tells me ADC’s problem doesn’t have much to do with the audience at all . . .
@@101RealTalker First off, it's spelled Rick Rubin and DJ Premier. Rick didn't invent rap, that's just how Dice remembered the guy hyping him up. Rubin did change the face of rap, by signing & producing the Beastie Boys, LL, Public Enemy and Run DMC. With both albums and videos he took it outside the NYC sphere. Before that, hip hop was barely on the radio and was considered a novelty, not the undeniable worldwide phenomenon it became.
My stepdad stupidly introduced me to this piece of absolute gold when I was 13. The Adventures of Ford Fairlane to this day is one of my favorite movies of all time.
Stand up gets old quick, it's the characters and attitude that we ultimately remember. Guys like Dice and Ron White are examples of that. We remember the middle fingers they threw up in the air along the way.
Andy and Paulie Shore were both fads. Neither of these guys understand that. Fame slapped them around and left them wondering what happened back in 1989. 3:39
I’ve always been a huge fan of Andrew’s comedy. He can literally be considered a cultural touchstone, in regard to the impact he had on comedy, and the general public, at large. In ways, he is similar to Billy Joel, as far as having the desire to be a “greaser,” with heavy Italian undertones, despite their Jewish upbringing.
I was just about to ask is this goomba really a Jew lololol He wishes he was Italian so bad. I get it growing up in Brooklyn but if he was Italian he wouldn’t have made it.
@@ryand4533 yup ryan... brooklyn would have ate him alive BUT his whole act was based on his life around that Goomba lifestyle. As a jew they treated him badly growing up. I've heard him say that in an interview. His version of that lifestyle is hilarious though... and it's like he became one of them. Dice was and always be a comic genius (despite being the most raunchy comic ever)
I loved “The Day the Laughter Died.” I remember the first time me and a friend first heard it in the summer of 1990 we were bewildered by it at first, but then the “Richard Nixon” bit and the part where he talked about going to the supermarket we were doubled over dying with laughter. Good times. 😂😂😂
Andrew Dice Clay is, was & will always be a comedic genius! I knew from the first time I heard him do stand up he was gonna be great even though his style was new & different, he was my kinda guy!
A National Treasure! Dice is so good because there’s the people who love him for what he represents then there’s the people who hate him for that exact same reason. Then there’s the real ones who get that he’s a Jew playing a character and has done it so well for so long there’s no denying his genius…Love or hate him.
I was 16 when this came out. To a 16 year old, tiis guy was God at the time, and my friends and I would laugh until we cried, listening to that double cassette.
"Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet... eating her curds and whey... along came a spidey, sat down beside-y, said 'Ay... whats in the bowl b*tch' OHHHH"
I remember listening to one of his albums when I went camping & tubing. Around 20-30 of us sitting around the fire. One by one the girls started getting up and waking away while all the guys were laughing there asses off. The 1st to leave was a random lesbian crew that sat with us. Not sure what I laughed at most. His album or the fact that all the women eventually all left. Lmfao
Funny enough, "being honest" and never pandering to the crowds who threaten to cancel you is by today's definition "refreshing", whereas in Dice's day and before (Carlin, Murphy, Pryor, Kinison, Hicks, Foxx, etc) being honest was just regular mode of operations.
I met Dice a couple of times in 1990-1991 while working at the Sheraton Tara Hotel in Parsippany NJ. He is the nicest celebrity that I've ever met. The guy in ited me to hang out and have coffee within and his crew and we all had a good time just hanging out and talking. I watched the Vice show Dark Side of Comedy and they made him out to be such a P.O.S and that couldn't be further from what I experienced.
When l think of Dice having to suffer .... ( Tall Jewish guy from LI......w/ Robinn... Quivers) Anyway....Dice was on there couple of months... ( You could feel Dice carrying the radio show....) Hes actually excited to be with Joe. Howard Stern invited Dice...to some , ' appearance ' he was doing .....So Howard keeps plugging the event ...mentiining ' Dice Clay s gonna be there ( 50 times...) Dice kept saying each time his name was used , " Yeah , but wat r YOU gonna do...? " Calling out Sterns ( non ) talent.
Proof of the frontal lobe formation: That was the most awkward album I've heard at the age of 20 years of age. My bunkmate was enjoying every bit of it and I kept playing it just to see what I was cringing over. I felt something but knew I was missing it. Fast forward through more battles and warfare and at the age of 24 and putting that CD back in to listen in 1999...man, I laughed harder than I ever have! That is summed up by "we're not here for laughter, we're here for comedy". If I could talk to that 20yo kid, I guess I'd have to say, "Theater of pain buddy. Comedy's not all sunshine and roses. Like laughing at a dog with zero legs..."
Saying Rick Rubin basically created rap is a disgusting insult to DJ Kool Herc and the ACTUAL forefathers of hip hop. Rick Rubin didn't create rap. At all. He was 10 years old when it was created.
I'm an absolute nobody - I'll give you that, but so much of what Dice talks about is trying to convince or remind everybody what a big deal he was. And he was! But the people that care already know that. It just comes off as pathetic. And I like Dice!
I believe he's correct at 5:20. Guy never pushes back, answers all of Dice's questions plainly. At best he's a low-honor guy, at worst check his hard drive.
I used to have it when I was a kid. I thought it was stupid as hell personally. The reason there’s no laughter is because it wasn’t funny. It was just Dice being a dick for like 90 mins. I always wondered why the hell it existed though. Nice to finally find out
I saw Dice at a comedy club in Miami in the late 80s, hilarious. He is the first comic I ever heard say he enjoyed not getting laughs and just wanted to push people.
Fuckin DICE MAN! Listened to the whole podcast twice, probably do it a third. Could listen to Dice drop true or bullshit stories and you couldn't tell which is which
Rogan shows you how to do it: KEEP SHTUM. Let The Dice Man spin his story...and when Dice comes up short in the memory bank at the end? Rogan makes a verbal deposit! Impressive as heckins, dude. Well done--and you impressed your guest with your knowledge. 💯🏆
I love the fact that Dice wanted the guy to say something while walking out, I hate the idea of not sitting there and heckling for the whole show, I would LOVE to heckle The Dice Man.
Sometimes its hard to make a joke in certain positive aspect. My best jokes are when im slightly angry, like Bill Burr. If i hate something i can mock it with pure genius
At some point Andrew, you can stop with the fingerless gloves. Just like Johny Depp should probably consider losing the accessories at some point, and while i'm on the subject... I sure wish Robert Smith would do at least one concert without lipstick before he dies. We're all grown grown up now. Stop trying to appeal to what we were.
that's like saying KISS should stop wearing their outfits and perform in regular clothes, you gotta keep what made you popular, it's like sticking with your roots, remembering where you came from, and how far you've come
@@TylerMatheny-y6o Kiss has performed without makeup and costumes since October 11, 1983, when they opened their Lick It Up World Tour in Lisbon, Portugal. This marked the beginning of the band's "unmasked" era.
