led. by. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or remain in the shallows. folks next up on dennis miller plus one a jack of all trades mario lopez obi believe it or not they're doing more saved by the bells on the peacock network. and i want to see what modern little they've put out or maybe his character ac slater possibly. ac d.c. slick now getting very low next a dennis miller plus one. a focused welcome to dennis miller plus one and the way you know the mug you see it everywhere this guy is a hustler man he's in that sweet spot in his career i like guys who step into that fully inhabited and he's getting to that point where i'm sure his business advisors say it's time to buy some art. for the sca right now is a co-host of access hollywood known of course in his youth is a c. slater on the hit 90 sitcom saved by the bell and that reboots just premiering on peacock i think the last stumbling block was they had to pry screech out of his contract at the royal shakespeare theatre but it's all speed ahead now and also believe it or not just started. this is amazing the colonel harlan center's great k.f.c. lifetime mini movie you know him well mariel lopez. i'm doing well thank you so much for for having me how you doing. good you are workin your ass. it seems to me that you are a man in for the big run from gig to gig or as a catch up dude or is this your time no i mean i feel very blessed dennis especially being a former child actor you hear all these horror stories of how most of these kids aren't able to sort of make that transition and as my dad would say i haven't had to get a real job yet. so i you know i love what i'm doing and ironically during this whole pandemic this is been probably one of the busiest years my life we were the 1st production according to sag for the christmas movie has shot when we did it over and anna and then we were the 1st show back on the lot and i was shot for like a week from my house with access hollywood actually do 3 there with access hollywood all access and access daily so we have to do 2 hours of live television for n.b.c. a day and i still do my all the while i still do have a nationally syndicated radio show called mario i was doing that all the time and then at the same time i was doing the new saved by the bell which you just mentioned which that was the 1st show on the lot here at universal so i was juggling all that and still trying to make it home in time to help coach my kids wrestling team in jujitsu him you know be there for dad with the 3 kids i got there so. it is ironic that this year professionally is probably one of the best my life . well did you have any wrestling chops when you're young or is that your i love the fact that you're doing it with your kid now is that your thing or what was your sport when you were yeah it was totally my thing i grew up as as a wrestler and wrestled ever since i was little guy since i was about 5 years old my uncles all wrestled so you know they got me and we came from like wrestling family and then i got into boxing later on so i'm sort of vicariously living through my my boys again i've got 2 boys and girl on so it's you know it's a lot of fun and he's getting really good in and during this during this time too that's when the toughest thing is with the kids at home and just like many other parents and trying to educate them at least with all the physical activity he's really been able to zone in on his you jitsu and on his wrestling has gotten really really good. i remember once or i don't know why this popped into my head but i went to seriously match i was still going to try it out for i remember the cat in the one o 3 i don't know what their weights are now used to be a dad $95103.00 and the cat comes out from our team and pittsburgh a wrestler guy 103 the guy goes to the bat marial the opposition takes is fake laid off and pinches toed up the just looks at my guy who is my friend. so for. me sport that i've ever seen i've seen people with every limb missing literally the right leg the left leg like different why someone was missing blind deaf everything and they've all been competitive and a lot of them successful weight did you you're from pittsburgh originally dennis yeah i was so sure the best of a pittsburgh to tell you how to go through with that but my wife's from pittsburgh so. you know big family are going house but i you know i'll go back and visit with her she's from up by kennywood what's at west missile. kennywood brother that is the that is the temple ordinance for ground that's where you're going to go every summer and it really the best the best roller coasters in the world but listen i love what somebody i hope got a big raise that colonel sanders years ago because i remember it was like the squarest brad and it even had like pretensions new and old world that is weird all of a sudden go in the letters or slender for you think ok somebody zipping it up and then the next permutation of that i'm watching or one night i'm thing i must be a loose and i think norman donald colonel and whoever's idea that was it was quite roja i guess you're the most recent colonel harland. yeah they've had norm they've had everyone from like reba mcentire to rob lowe and so i felt cannot read that they asked me and i've never seen this this i don't expect this kind of response it was it was pretty crazy and sort of all over the place in all the interviews i've been doing with jessica celebrities as of late to 1st thing they asked me about they want to talk about it and it turned into jay the end of interviews me for the most part but i was kind of a trip we did this little 15 minute meeting movie and it's very clever integration when he did it that would had to do with eat the i did for a lifetime so it was sort of like a double feature it was a lot of fun was an over the top sort of comedy to try to make it like a romance novel and. it was it was a trip. it was it's a mini movie titled a recipe for seductively i think the default lighting was breast or a fly maybe i'm not maybe i'm not something out of school there but i think that might have been the back of. their souce are doing it it's like those other commercials or some commercial on t.v. where they have the 2 people who are talking on a split screen kind of look almost like but they're not quite the same person and then it ends up becoming a huge celebration on social media people go is that same person same thing with this it's so out. they're that they hear. most secondary to the buzz about the commercial or i don't know exactly so funny and i was just i didn't i don't know why people got a kick out of it maybe because it was so over the top and you try to make it like one of those romance novels that the title itself recipe present ducks in. the mute is yeah the whole thing was was pretty funny and it played that way it was very tongue in cheek in not came up very romance novel slash novella like. you know i might be reading too much into it but as i watched it there's that i can't tell if this is just part of the funny idea they have about a next line but i sense there could be a sequel. you want to hear if anything this is so this is funny this just happened as a matter of fact my own. agent just called me said hey you can't do this but i just thought it was funny and i should mention it to you some adult site asked me they said would mario consider being a sexy santa claus for us and he doesn't have to do anything but read like these knotty bedtime stories it was really good seed amount of money in there like you can't you why do you even tell me that. the anonymously but i'm going. to be. just what it was the never get out of that sex is out of gaza who wait till you get up to dress up to read not there is a night not of a good good but again over my head i could not know the price is good but it's a brand killer of course are you. know it's funny the things that come across your desk when you're hot most of i have a theory on these shows from your youth. i think they're of a great comfort you know i don't want to make too much of this but we were all young and lessen cumbered a certain point now when i was a young man i used to watch the wild wild west and it was a show with robert conrad it was let's say the man from uncle meets western tablo and as i told her i came across that one night on t.v. us under something i can't tell you what a good vibe it engender demi i swear it's like saved by the bell i think people who have become now post ironic and they lived in a priori or onic world know hearken back to and go yeah it was it was nice being a kid in heaven things be a little sweeter a little simpler we've been getting like really well reviewed critically and then people have been really dana to the response has been overwhelmingly just super positive in and i am kind of surprised by the digital one that aired from 89 to 93 you must've felt like you plucked the sword from the stone when you got i can't imagine you go back and hear the stories about how many kids try out tell me about how you get it the 1st time through. you know prior to that i actually started when professionally when i was like 10 years old completely by accident i wasn't i wasn't one of those kids i want to be on t.v. . and this is something that i have to do just my parents are immigrants to this country and when there were raise i was raised in chill of us at the time that it was most upscale neighborhood so a lot of potential for trouble so my mom put in a bunch of different activities so i was the only dancing wrestling karate theater kid that i knew i literally had to be. what i was always very outgoing and i wasn't afraid to speak with adults and i talk a lot. and my mom knew that i like to kind of be a natural host and entertain so a lady that was a local talent agent that approached me or put my mom a savior thought about print or maybe doing local commercials my mom was like what's that and then she explained it to your and just like well he doesn't shut up and he reads really well for a kid so why not so it's just another one of those activities and i fell into it i want to fell into it i fell in love with it and then i i was so lucky to be able to and i got in l.a. even though it's only a couple hours south still world difference. that we did you know my dad worked for the city i'm on for the phone company blue collar oaks. and it was just one of the many other activities even when i was doing it dennis it wasn't something like oh you know was i going to school when i wasn't doing i'd be just sappy wrestling practice or i'd be just as happy doing whatever whatever else i was doing so i did this show called kids incorporated for 3 years where i had to learn to play the drums and it was dance in scene and acting and doing all that so all the little activities came that sort of fruition and it helped and then i would do stuff like . i was on a show for with norman lear show called pablo which was short lived back in the day and then what. exactly are a good poetry gives way back i played his nephew and then now. i sit by the bell. well i remember when i auditioned we one of the things that i think really resonated with kids is were actual kids playing kids because most of these shows have these like 35 year old guys play and i schoolkids but we were i was actually 15 playing a 15 year old so as everyone else and there was a pretty diverse cast and it was saturday morning very banal and i just kind of struck a chord with some kids for some reason but it didn't really get into it sort of real popular pop culture phenomenon if you will i guess into when it is syndication kind of subtle but we were making anything i remember vividly we were making like 3000 a week which by the way is great for your average 50 year old kid but you know after taxes and your pain for hotels or apartment to sleep you know it's a stain on the whole thing it was like you're almost kind of practically breaking even i was put a little away for college one day and i'm so grateful for and all that but are people get that as you know they get this misconception or you're on t.v. must be loaded back then no. but you know it's not yes but i loved it and we shot it in the summer time because we were also minors so they didn't want anyone to after they didn't want have to deal with school or what have you saw in social workers so i got to have a regular childhood i went to chill of the high 3500 kids i got to wrestle for my school and go to the prom homecoming the whole deal so to me back then it was like i had a cool summer job and i still got to go and i school and do all that other stuff so the fact that we get to revisit it was a very long answer a question i'm sorry but the fact that we get to revisit it early years later still kind of trips me out. you know actual miners were making more than you were at the point your current sons. and you know you know you are going to create a syndication guy was just wood green backs it and you know and recently did a really big and i get some dull to vent for a 2nd you figure to get some more dough when when disagree cation right no literally gotten checks dennis that are less than the postage themselves so mike when. it meets no sense i feel like i'm in jacks and they're like $0.17 sometimes it might total $50.00 i don't know if the board was or think i love the experience i'm grateful for the boy do we sound bad deals back in the day but we don't know yet i'll. listen and i think the beatles checked out to be in the beatles after the 7 year right i don't think they have much so it's a it's not it's a twice too old to tell my brother a lot of regret in the saying. we're going to have another segment with our friend mario lopez i want to talk to my it seems every time i've checked into a hotel in my adult life mario's been on the t.v. tell me about a movie or some another one of his many to us a renaissance man and a good cat mariano lopez right after this one dennis miller plus one. well the demick no certainly no border is just blind to nationalities. has emerged with the we don't look like scene world beat's to. judge a. commentary crisis sleaze christensen's more and. we can do better we should. everyone is contributing your own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created the response has been much so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together. americans love buying homes. and this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country a large understood the bargain you get a hope and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. be really interesting to dial it back and think about the longer deeper history housings men in the united states not just that old question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is for. the world is driven by a dream shaped. thinks . please dear to ask. hey welcome back i'm talking the chill of this to say finest mariel lopez were talking during the break a little i grew up in pittsburgh and grows up and sure like he said it might as well be another planet from l.a. the good thing is though mary i don't know about you but the put a blue collar no bullshit thing in the may i just remember when i got to la la land and there'd be people in a row that were like farm valley fairies they're just trip and theory a weird they weren't even grounded i would just sit there and go yeah i don't want to be rude but i think that are just going to keep my nose diving dry and so it sounds like you got some of that from your parents to write absolutely absolutely i dig people for bits rob's rattle off names of people that i know yourself we're talking with tom white you're from pittsburgh michael keaton jeff gold bloom there are some of the folks who are some other notables because sport is a whole nother thing you get all its but i know some other notables out there from it's what was what we were kids we could believe that fred rogers lived up the road for a boss you know all these kids are talking about mr rogers and who was. right it. was our neighborhood so that people in your day right now it's awesome. that spirit has that sort of vibe word says go forth and prosper but don't become that's what i that's the best i give out it's a sure way to live the same. i you know my parents still live there dennis i've tried to recruit them to calm and they've got grandkids now they won't leave the neighborhood i said come on admit you how you can state over just what we everyone there on the we don't know like ok but you gotta do. that's the beautiful thing that it's in their hearts you know what i can see that from your youth you've got such good chops on t.v. now and i watch the shows like access hollywood i i'm always amazed that listen hollywood fascinates people but there are some a chalkboard to air it seems there when some people interview people you always have something to say and i can see it's like malcolm gladwell is 10000 hours of practice say you know just the one self it doesn't seem to me like you're at a loss for words when it gets that pregnant pause that invariably comes in an interview oh well thank you very much well you know the thing is is that i actually really entertainment like growing up but i do movies i love t.v. i love music i love to consume it so i get excited to talk to these people and i think they can see that i'm genuinely excited i do my homework and so they they know one prepared and also maybe because i'm also in for the cameras well they made me feel a little bit i'm i'm i want to one of them i'm not going to come from i'm not trying to get the sound bite i'm not trying to be salacious i in the just wanted to have a conversation and then they into kind of divulge more that they probably wanted to anyway. yeah i always think of this show too in the same way when they say do you want to do politics and agonal what i'm fine i'm just talking to people there are too many gotcha interviews out there i'd like to do i got to hear fists that's the way i think of it where ships you know go bump in the night we're together for like 2025 minutes why not have been you know a fun exchange you have a culture lapse fight what with the persons though and that's the way i'm approached it i see that you do too absolutely absolutely you know i get obviously being a very. political year i get asked a bunch of different stuff in and my attitude is always this dentist i'm like you know what i mean the people business i don't want to alienate anyone i don't want anyone to have an excuse to change a channel and say i don't like mario for this reason i want to model watch me so you know i'm i'm always i'm always like a root for the pilot let's just go whoever's next tire that's land that's right safely no matter what it's not ready to go so i might keep it that way. listen i think in a lot of way one of the listen obviously the virus has caused human agony that is ultimate on the scale but i think on this subject of bills in the penalty mut sense many businesses are going to change now and one of them as i have trouble with seeing people head out to a mall or go to a small screen in the center plex on a more what's your thoughts you think it's changed. well i mean i think h.b.o. max is really leading that charge and much to the chagrin of theater movie theater owners all across the country and i don't know once you let the genie out of the bottle of it it could ever go back i love personally the movie going experience i i enjoy going to to the theater and get the popcorn and seen it you know but there's something to be said for the convenience of your own home now too with a lot of these i mean i'm not going to lie and say i'm excited on christmas when the new wonder woman comes out and all the whole other slate of films i don't know what things will go back to quote normal anymore i know it's in by the way it's affected my business in the sense like the red carpet is such a staple right i don't know if we're going to be able to revisit anymore with equal so it's really it's really interesting to see how it's going to it's going to play out to be honest. yeah i think people go back to theaters when the sticky substance under their feet on the theater floor is a vaccine i think that's the next time people feel good. diet coke or somebody is going to have to come up with some of that i can get at the counter to keep myself so i see your time and your bride pittsburgher oh and you guys are hosts of a show called food quest that people always say you should know work or their way how's it going along well you know aside from that that's one of those shows where you can bang out a lot of the the interstitials the wraparound if you will like on a weekend you do 23 weekends you've got a season where i work with there are 3 days a week is my radio show we they wanted a female voice because as we were growing in these different markets to read a lot of these for the feminine type products and we had different women come in and audition and but the female audience didn't lie when they when the women were kind of trying to be funny or give me a hard time in respond well they got very protective but when my wife was sort of dragon or she she come and visit me would guess host they loved when she was busting my balls for some reason they love that with my wife doing that but they don't like many other women so more like the you know and i thought the same thing oh yeah i know you should work but i think it's only like an hour or so a couple times a week i can handle that and i like keeping it in the family and i keep it all madame you know everyone everyone's got to have a strong work or work ethic at casa lopez all the kids are pulling their weight. tell me about the kids mario how many have not you said i think you said you have 2 and what is the deceased some of your young mariel lopez and your kids now i have 3 kids i have a daughter named jia

beautiful healthy kids thank god for my wife and they're so diverse in their interests and loved to keep busy like i did when i was a kid dentist in the rear in a very confident might my daughter has already a pretty little impressive resume just our stuff that she's done i'm not i'm not necessarily encouraging her to get in the business but i'm not discouraging it either i'm just trying to be that supportive dad whatever they want to do but certain opportunities presented itself in alaska a.j. if you want to do this she's like so she's interviewed everyone from like the rock to kate blaine chat i mean just a really present list of people and so now you get requested like ryan reynolds has requested to have an interview or for his new movie the croods so i just have like kid takes in

piano and my wife i mean on broadway and so she's she's wildly talented so that that's the arts or i'm port or let's go you seem like you got a good perspective rather i can see how you attracted a
