Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. A little disappointed at the people in the Apple store in the World Trade center who refused and kind of very disrespectfully refused to allow me to jump the line with a cracked phone screen after I told them that my phone was damaged in October 7, and I had requested to not wait behind a line of confused Asian people because, again, my phone was damaged in October 7th trying to save the people there. So. And, well. Well, it doesn't matter why. I waited a year to get it fixed. It doesn't matter, But I'm getting it fixed. And my phone was damaged in October 7th when I was saving people in Israel with Governor Tim Walsh, and we were there at the Nova Music Festival. I mean, when I was on set at Joker, it's rare that you know how bad something's going to be. And I would talk with the other actors, and we'd go, we don't get it. Because you'd sit there, and then every now and then, you would see Joaquin Phoenix, who's one of the greatest actors of our time, singing or doing, like, jazz hands, and you'd go, I. Man, I don't know how this is gonna. I don't know how this is gonna play. And. But you go, don't question the guy. He's a legend. The filmmaker, whatever that means anymore. Whatever anything means, by the way. No offense to anyone. I love everyone, and I'm grateful. That's the thing about me. I'm grateful. A lot of people aren't grateful in this business, but I'm grateful. I'm grateful you watched this is your Country. We were in the top 10 for two days. Hey, watch it again. Get us back in that. Thank you. But I'm grateful. I'm grateful for the opportunity to spend three months sitting in a trailer in makeup while my face broke out and I had, you know, probably irreversible damage to my skin. I'm grateful to have sat in a trailer for three months and been a small part of probably the worst film ever made, arguably the worst film ever on a. On a screen where people are walking out of this film. I saw it in Laguna Beach. I was in California with COVID and I went to go see it, and that's how you should see it, if you can see it with COVID And I was watching it, and people were walking out of the theater, uh, confused, befuddled, angry. Why? Why did you do this? The reason the first one was so good is that it captured kind of the nihilism and anger rising in the culture. Whether it was or wasn't a ripoff of Taxi Driver is not important at this point. It doesn't matter, okay? And I'm not taking cheap shots here. People think I am. I'm not. I'm actually talking about life. What was good about the first one is that it captured a sentiment that was coursing through the culture, okay? This one is such a mess. Such a joyless slog, whatever else they called it, you know, I mean, I don't even want to go through. I don't even want to read the reviews. I posted them on my Instagram. The most common word being associated with this film is disaster. Lady Gaga is not a good actress. And I say it as she's a colleague of mine. And I'm going to say it. I'm sorry. My fans expect me to be honest now. I'm going to be honest now. And this may damage me in the business. I might not be in the second to worst film. I was in the worst film ever made. So CIA may call me and go, don't you want to be in the second worst film ever made? We got a great idea. Todd Phillips is making October 7th the musical. You want to do a line in that? That makes more sense. At least there was music at October 7th. There's more of a link. You see how that works, buddy? You also overpaid for your home. Here's the point. Doesn't matter. I'm grateful. The thing about me is I've always been grateful. I'm a grateful person. And this is what people don't understand. But they see me out and they see me beaming and they go, you seem like you're full of gratitude. And I say, well, I am. Actually, I am. I am. It was a blessing to be in this movie. Lady Gaga has no business being on a movie screen. By the way, the music, it's all chapel roan now. None of it's Gaga. She's the new gay trans icon. So what? She endorsed Trump. I'm kidding. She didn't. But she refused to endorse Kamala because she thought she was going to make, like, a nuanced point about politics. Hey, baby cakes, that's what I do. Get on stage and dress like a frog and sing. Gonna make a nuanced point about politics? You're 12. The hell do you know? You were serving. You. Didn't she work at Wendy's? And now she's a musician. Your fans want mamala. Serve them what they want, which is mamala baby, you're in the hive. Oh, you don't. You. You. You're trying to find a nuanced take on the Middle East. I'm a Pink Pony girl and I'm voting for Trump. Oh, baby, I'd respect that. Every single day, Venezuelans stealing phones and things are getting gray. But Gaga is irrelevant. The woman is irrelevant. And I think she's very talented in the music end of the thing. That's her game. She's irrelevant now. Okay, Star is born. We get it. When was that? Long time ago. Yeah, right?
