Hope it wasn't out of line to ask.0:37No, it wasn't. You know what I'm saying?0:39I know what you're saying, because, you know, I wouldn't want you to be offended.0:43And I'm not. You know what I'm saying?0:45I know what you're saying.0:46You know what I'm saying?0:47I know what you're saying.0:48You know what I'm saying?0:49I know what you're saying.0:50You know what I'm saying?0:52Yes, I do.0:53You know what I'm saying?0:54Yes.0:55You know what I'm saying?0:56Yep.0:57You know what I'm saying?0:57I know what you're saying.0:58You know what I'm saying?0:59Yeah.1:00You know what I'm saying?1:00Yes.

You know what I'm saying?1:10I said I shut up! Shut up! Shut up!1:15You know what I'm saying?1:16Yes, yes, I know what you're saying, all right!1:19Whatever.1:20Anyway, thanks for being on the show. You know, we we've had a lot of great guests dropping by.1:26Have you ever met Celine Dion?1:28I have felt like killing her before.1:30Well, obviously, we all have. Um, ever felt like killing anybody else?1:35You know, most of my family members.1:37That's nice. W- which reminds me, d- do you feel that you owe at least part of your success to the loving support that your family has given you over the years?1:45I don't owe nobody in my family nothing.1:47You don't owe nobody in your family nothing? Wow, that's a triple negative.1:53Does that mean that you do owe somebody in your family something?1:56It's like, it's up to you to decide, you know.1:59Oh, I almost forgot. I know it's your favorite, so I made you a Twinkie wiener sandwich.2:05I knew you'd make it, I knew you'd make it.2:07But before I give it to you, I just want you to answer me one simple.2:11What is the mathematical formula used to determine the area inside a pentadodecahedron?2:16It's a simple formula, it's a simple formula.2:18All right, what is it?2:21You know?2:22No, I don't know. What is it?2:24It's, it's, it's easy. I mean, the, the formula is, first of all, there, you know.2:30Yeah, that's what I thought. You have no idea what you're talking about.2:34Yeah, so I better just shut up.2:36Uh-huh. Um, when was the last time you were completely deloused?2:42Um,2:44last year.2:46Hmm. Well, I- I've been asking all the questions here. Uh, are there any questions you want to ask me?2:51You know, how many times can you run, uh, tearing me apart, breaking my heart?2:56Well, let's see. Homer and Bart, medical chart, strawberry Tart, Served a la Carte, Back to the Start, Postmodern Art, Plastic Lawn Dart, Missing a Part, Humphrey Bogart, Lighting a Fart,3:05and Blue Light Special Reach Stay at Kmart. 11.3:08Give me a3:10Jealous much? Hey, you know, I was wondering, why weren't you at the Academy Awards to pick up your Oscar?3:16Was your macrame class that night?3:18Yeah.3:18Bummer. But I noticed that you did show up at the MTV Awards, and you almost got into a fight with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.3:27Were you afraid that a sock puppet was going to kick your butt?3:31You know, that was the way I felt at the time, you know?3:33Well, have you two patched things up, or is your rap war still going on?3:38Yeah, it's still going on.3:40That's too bad. You know, I ran into Triumph recently, and he wanted me to tell you that he thinks you're a really excellent rapper for him to poop on.3:51How does that make you feel?3:53I don't know, it's like, I don't know, it doesn't necessarily hurt my feelings because I kind of expect it, you know what I'm saying?4:00So, tell me, Marshall, how do you feel about censorship in music?4:04I feel like, um, you know, I, I really believe in freedom of speech.4:08I can't even stress that enough. I feel like especially artistic expression, you know, I believe an artist should be an artist and be able to say whatever he wants to say, whether,4:18whether you think it's good or bad, you know.4:20Uh-huh. So you think, for example, if somebody wanted to do, oh, I don't know, a parody of somebody else's video, they should be able to artistically express themselves and just do it?4:34Um.4:35Ah, I'm just busting your chops. I know you said I couldn't do a video for my Lose Yourself parody, but hey, you know, it's your choice.4:43Yeah, exactly. So...4:44Just between you and me, though, don't you think my version of the song is just a little bit better than yours?4:51And that's kind of what pisses me off.4:53I knew it. Well, now I don't have a video to promote my new album, Poodle Hat, but you know, as long as You're happy.5:01You are happy, aren't you? You're happy, right? Because I sure want you to be happy!5:07You're crazy. You're crazy, for real, you're crazy.5:10Well, since I don't have a video for it, and since this is my stinking show, what do you say we just sit here and listen to the whole song right now?5:20Look,5:23if you had one shot to sit on your lazy butt and watch all the TV you ever wanted until your brain turned to mush.5:35Would you go for it or just let it slip?5:38Yo, remote is ready, eyes wide, palms are sweaty, the Flintstones on the TV already, Wilma and Betty, no Virgin, the channel surfing, and I'm HD ready, so I flip.5:49Garbage is all I'm getting. The Simon Cowell, who folks want to disembowel, he opens his mouth, always says something foul.5:56They're dying, wow. Wannabes are crying now. He votes them out, it's time to throw in the towel.6:01Showcase on reality, oh, the humanity, oh, Aziz family show the profanity, whoa, the insanity, oh, the back gravity, home of depravity, no, they live happily, yo, plus the Ali G show and celebrity mole only van in the cold.6:19Oh, what's the matter? Don't you like it?6:22No, uh, it's it's just, it's ridiculous, it's repetitive, and it just, it gets on my nerves.6:26Eh, give me a break. I could only change the words. I couldn't change the music too.6:31I just think that, um, it's sissy music.6:35Really? Well, then I imagine you'd really like it.6:38No, you didn't just say that, you little bitch.6:41Oh, come on, Marshall. You came out of the closet years ago.6:44Don't be so coy.6:46That was my personal business, you know what I'm saying?6:48Marshall, it's okay. You can talk about it now. Do you remember what it was like when you first came out?6:55Um...6:57Like, when I first came out, when I first came out, I noticed the difference, like, when I first came out.7:02I came out, when I came out, not many people really understood me or understood where I was coming from.7:07That must have been tough. Y- you know, I have to admit, I- I was a little bit nervous about doing this interview.7:13Relax, guy. I like gay men, you know.7:16That's great, but I- I'm not gay.7:20I don't believe that.7:21Well, I'm sorry, but I'm not. What, do you find me attractive or something?7:28Maybe I do.7:29Wait, are- are you hitting on me?7:32Yeah.7:33Uh.7:35You don't have anything to say?7:37Well, I'm flattered, I guess, but I'm just really not interested.7:43Why don't you go hit on Brad Pitt or something?7:46Yeah, he's cute, but isn't he married, though?7:48Yeah, I guess so, but look, I I'm sorry if you got the wrong impression.7:52I I just asked you here so I could interview you. That's all.7:58What the this is, you know, this is bull to me.8:01Hey, calm down. I just wanted to talk to you about your music.8:05You know, I happen to think you're very talented, and you've got a lot of potential for growth.8:10I, I, I see your talent as, as kind of a, a little acorn seed.8:16And when that acorn seed is, is planted and watered and nurtured and allowed to grow, do you know what it eventually becomes?8:26Fucking tree.8:28Yeah.8:30Do you think you might possibly have Tourette's syndrome?8:32You know, you know, just fucking whatever, you know.8:36You've got a little potty mouth, don't you?8:39I don't believe that nobody cannot swear.8:42You don't believe that nobody cannot swear. Wow, another triple negative.8:48Does that mean that you do believe that somebody c- Oh, never mind.8:54So, how do you feel about clean rappers like Will Smith?8:57I used to respect Will Smith, and when he came out and started talking about, you know, he st- he dissed the whole gender of of of rap.9:07The whole gender of rap? Are you sure you don't mean genre? I I mean, I I don't want to second guess you or anything.9:13Uh, you are the Oscar-winning, critically acclaimed wordsmith and all.9:17Um, so you're a- you're a big fan of the gender of rap then, are you?9:23That is one of the most influential musics out there.9:27Very well spoken. Well, speaking of rap, we're going to have to wrap up this little interview.9:36You know, I'm actually free after the show. You want to maybe go out and do something later?9:41We'll get, we'll get it, we'll get some decent looking dudes, and we'll9:44No, Marshall, I told you I'm not into that. How about if we just go bowling instead?9:50All right.9:50Great. Well, thanks for coming on the show. And by the way, in case you didn't know,9:57I'm just playing, Marshall. You know I love you. You?10:00Right.10:01We'll be right back.
