Blast From the Past was always my favorite Fraser comedy, though it doesn’t get the recognition I think it deserves. Such a funny, feel good film, it is my go to “comfort” movie. Brendan makes me happy! This renaissance is long past due.
Brendan Fraser was my childhood (Encino man, George of the Jungle, Airheads, With Honors, Bedazzled, the fcking Mummy, even his lesser know The Scout). Always loved his movies. He's very watcheable and has such a presence on screen. I'm loving this resurgence of him in the mainstream spotlight. Hope he's happy. Will be checking out the Whale soon.
It was interesting as I listened, what a great voice Brendan Fraser has. He would be an excellent narrator as well. Great to see him return to films and getting his due.
Enjoyed this conversation very much. Wishing all the best to Brendan keeps surprising and transcending with every role. It's so fucking cool and refreshing to see fellow Gen Xers just shining brilliantly these days in the face of everything. Been a fan of him since he started in 92'..great guy with well deserved acclamation and continued success. On with the Brenaissance celebration! #cheers
i had such a super crush on BF from the jump…adorable in Encino Man, and still just as charming with his infectious smile and that gleam in his eye. Happy to see him doing what he loves and his talent being recognized.
Brendan has always been one of our favorite actors; it's always a great movie if a Brendan movie is in the theaters 💯 He always seems to meet the mark & somehow he makes the role unforgettable for we the viewers 👌 Good Stuff 👍
Wow, I did NOT expect this but what a great way to start the day. Fraser is a treasure and seemingly one of the nicest and most humble dudes around. Just like the Keanu Reeves comeback a few years ago (he kind of disappeared from the public eye for a long time too), you can sense that there’s a lot of goodwill from not only the public but also his peers which speaks to his character. Some of the people he worked with in the past - like Sandler and Quan - seem positively happy for him in some of these “actors roundtable” talks and I think that says a lot. Rooting for him for the Oscar. 👏
He has the most beautiful, humble voice. I haven't seen THE WHALE yet but it is on my list for next week to do. God bless you Brendan. You are a true gem.
Great interview!...a " Blast from the past" ...so many great actors... my favorite Fraser movie !!!... should do a sequel... everyone is still alive...boom
I had no idea the author is from my hometown Moscow, Idaho! And attended the same school as my kids. Im going to see this tomorrow. Great interview. My heart is overflowing.
Thank you for this podcast. It's such a breath of fresh air in a heavy world. Thank you for letting US be the flies on the wall as you and your guests discuss your work. We should all be so lucky to have friends like Dana and David.
Fraser and his wife did a cameo in Spade's movie in 2004 and he's worked with Carvey. None of these people are friends, they just use each other to promote themselves. How naive.
Such well thoughtful and delivered Interview with Brendan Fraser, and I just love David Spade and it was GREAT to Hear Dana Carvey do Church Lady!!! 1:11:10 💯
Saw the Affair. Had a visceral reaction to Gunther character that Brendan played on mini series. Didn’t know it was Brendan that played the role, but I remember thinking that this was a great actor. He took complete ownership of that character right down to his pores. Can’t wait to see The Whale, but I envision acquiring the DVD when it comes out, and viewing it in my home, by myself, so I can wail with total abandonment. Was a great convo guys. Love to David and Dana too.
He still has that GREAT voice. I saw School Ties in the movies. What a fantastic actor and a very special film. Airheads. CLASSIC. I remember seeing Brendan in Crash and wondering why he is not in so many more films. He's got serious acting chops.
So interested in how Brendan is getting back in shape. I used to work out regularly and a physical issue stopped me being able to work out. I am hoping he will write a book on his journey through this, it has been so frustrating. Hint hint Brendan, please ♥
We've loved and missed Brendan. He truly is an iconic human from my childhood (I'm 30) and gave me some of my favorites of all time besides Abbott and Costello. I'm so happy that he's back and gives me hope that a piece of my childhood is alive once more. Much love and blessing from missouri and staying tuned for new laughter and memories 🤙✌👏🙌 bravo guys
Duuuuuuuude… Airheads was one of my absolute favorite movies of my early teenage years… They used to show it 3 times a day on Comedy Central and I would watch it every time I passed it and it was awesome. I love that movie. It may be one of Buscemi’s top 3 roles.
Brendan, you’re the best! I was a huge fan of yours when you started in School Ties, Dudley Do Right, and especially Blast From The Past. I always thought you were the perfect combination of innocently sweet and super cute. If you’re ever in San Francisco please come to Glass Key Photo and we’ll hook you up, as I know you’re a film camera buff.
Great interview of Brendan been a fan of his for a long time so when I heard he was in Doom Patrol I had to watch it. There is a lot of pathos in that performance.
Before: I love Brendan Fray-zer (like razor). And Spade + Dana. Brendan’s so nice + polite , I hope he doesn’t get interrupted too much. Cuz “isn’t he special…” 🤔 After: U guys did so GREAT. Thanku for an hour+ of fun. No one cares but I’ve always loved Brendan. The Mummy(s) are my all time fav (I was harassed for them being on our TV so much). Also loved Bedazzled. That’s the one, as Dana mentioned, where Brendan did handsome leading man then popped into a big goofball. So much talent. And Liz Hurley in those outfits could turn a girl. Lol j/k. Sorry TLDR. -a new subscriber of ur podcast. 💋
This was all just beautiful. David and Dana calling themselves narcissists in the beginning was hilarious. They did great continuing to talk about Brendan and his career + the Whale. I haven't seen anyone mention The Last Time yet, where Daniel Stern's character tells Fraser's salesman character "If you're going after Moby Dick, you gotta bring along the tartar sauce!" That line has always stuck with me. 😅 Believe in yourself and good things will happen is how I took that, even though it was a dark comedy. Favorite movies with Brendan: Gods and Monsters, Mummy films, Blast From the Past, Mrs. Winterbourne (absolutely in love with him in that!), George of the Jungle, Encino Man, School Ties.... shoot, just so many! Great as Gunther, but super freaky scary. 😆🤘🏻 Good on him. So happy to see him in the major spotlight again where he belongs. Great actor and good man. 💓
You named the same 10 ( out of 54) movies that everyone can name and 1 of his 6 Tv series. Who would stay relevant in any industry with a poor track record like that? It doesn't take a phony victim narrative to explain it, it's just common sense.
The joke about the banana hammocks had me dying.... but yeah Brendan Fraser was the definition of early 90s cool, even moreso than Pauly Shore. I remember seeing him in Encino Man back in theater. Coolest dude ever....
Enjoyed it, glad this guy's career is going very well even though I've never heard of him before and never seen anything with him in it. Dana and David are very funny together.
David Spade talks more than anyone. I wanted to hear Brendan talk. Not an interview but a David Spade monologue! Also Dana? Can he please be allowed to talk David? You are not alone.
ENCINO MAN was re-titled to CALIFORNIA MAN when it was released here in the Netherlands because how are we clog wearing cheeseheads supposed to know where Encino is, that same studio attitude was the reason why Weird Al Yankovic's UHF was released as THE VIDIOT FROM UHF over here! AIRPLANE was re-titled to FLYING HIGH here but the reason behind that one eludes me.🤔
Carvey Cmon were loyal subscribers and fans. We wanna see you guys interview these people. Were fans!!! Even if u dont wanna be on camera. Let us see the guest! Please !
So Brendan and Matt Bomer were both up for the Superman that went to Routh, but they both ended up in Doom Patrol together later. Acting is a small world sometimes.
"Thems fighting words" omg I love this man, im extremely attracted to this man and would just hear him whisper in my ear all night jfc. There's such an age gap I shouldn't feel that way but my God Brendan BRENDAN stop evolving ITS TOO MUCH MAN MY HEART CANT TAKE IT
It's like he's down on the comedic movies. He doesn't talk about Blast From the Past either. And he only mentions Encino Man when he talks about the early part of his career.
I've wondered that too! He talks a little bit about Bedazzled. He talks somewhat about Encino Man because it was early on in his career, but he seems down on it. Doesn't ever mention Blast From the Past much, though. LOVES the Mummy though, which is strange. Maybe because it's a franchise that still have potential for sequels?
Dana carvey says I don't want to give away the ending of the movie but..... Then proceeds to give away almost everything about the end of the movie when.....and then proceeds to further discuss the moment. Brennan was probably thinking, WTF?!! Dana should know better..... But yes there is a moment at the end of the movie where the big thing at the end of the movie that happens will make you cry....if not, you may not be human.
Blast From the Past was always my favorite Fraser comedy, though it doesn’t get the recognition I think it deserves. Such a funny, feel good film, it is my go to “comfort” movie. Brendan makes me happy! This renaissance is long past due.
Same! I Love Brendan and I love that movie!
Bedazzled is mine. Loved the chemistry between him and Elizabeth Hurley.
My favorite as well! Then I loved School Ties, the Mummy & Journey to the Center of the Earth was fun for me.
I quote it constantly, insanely underrated movie with a truly star-studded cast
“I am the mother”was amazing Line in the movie!
Brendan Fraser was my childhood (Encino man, George of the Jungle, Airheads, With Honors, Bedazzled, the fcking Mummy, even his lesser know The Scout). Always loved his movies. He's very watcheable and has such a presence on screen. I'm loving this resurgence of him in the mainstream spotlight. Hope he's happy. Will be checking out the Whale soon.
He's such a good guy. I love him in every way. Am so thrilled to know he is doing well. I think he had a good time during the interview. Nice job guys
With Honors is one of my favorite Brendan Fraser movies. So glad to see him back and "The Whale" is an incredible performance.
It was interesting as I listened, what a great voice Brendan Fraser has. He would be an excellent narrator as well. Great to see him return to films and getting his due.

Fraser and Keanu, both Canadians, so nice
Seemingly.
Great episode & the bonus of Brendan having an ASMR voice without trying.
He has the most beautiful, humble voice. I haven't seen THE WHALE yet but it is on my list for next week to do. God bless you Brendan. You are a true gem.

Fair warning. Bring a barf bag.
@@ifyouonlyknew811 So true.
Don’t waste your money. Go watch Encino man again instead, much better.
What a voice!
Great interview!...a " Blast from the past" ...so many great actors... my favorite Fraser movie !!!... should do a sequel... everyone is still alive...boom
His scrubs appearances still my favorite episodes especially the last one he did.
Where do you think you are?😥
I wept
By the end Dana still hasn't figured out he's mispronouncing Brendan's last name 😂
Exactly what I was going to say 😉
Pretty nice of him to not correct him haha
@@sierragerlitz5658 he never does, bless him
He did correct Dana. Do you shave with a razier?
Imagine how great this could have been if they'd let him talk.
He does get it right in passing at one point about halfway through but i think it's just the one lol
Love ❤️ you guys and thanks so much for having Brendan on, he was in so many movies that I loved growing up! Incredible talent! Great conversation!
yes he was always good vibes
Brendan Fraser is gold👌🏼
Dana n David, I love ur podcast n both of u. Thank u for having Brendan Fraser. Best episode yet. He's an icon to me
I just saw The Whale. Wrecked.
Beautiful interview.
Thank you for doing this.
He's important. 😔
I had no idea the author is from my hometown Moscow, Idaho! And attended the same school as my kids. Im going to see this tomorrow. Great interview. My heart is overflowing.
Brendan you are an excellent human as an excellent actor. Great interview
The mummy was the first movie I ever saw in theaters in 1999, I was 9 years old and terrified. It's still my favorite movie.
Thank you for this podcast. It's such a breath of fresh air in a heavy world. Thank you for letting US be the flies on the wall as you and your guests discuss your work. We should all be so lucky to have friends like Dana and David.

He deserves all the praise.
I wish Brendan would get major roles in the future.

I’ve been listening for 15 minutes and I think Brendan got one uninterrupted sentence in so far 😅
I'm on minute 54 and he still hasn't. 😁
Yes David! Why don’t you get your own show, alone by yourself where you can just talk on and on and on. Very annoying!
really enjoyed how honest & thoughtful this episode was, best one yet

Bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏 So enjoyed this podcast y'all!
I love Brendan and am glad he is back.
Side note, I can now run much of The Tree in my head with Farley and Spade.
Airheads and the mummy are my favorite Fraser movies. Dude rules.

Funny, Dana mentioned our High School - Carlmont - when he talked about his 'outer body experience' for an Emmy.

Oh I didn't expect Brendan on your show, and this is a great surprise.
Great episode guys 👍🏼 Would love to hear an interview with Tim Heidecker 🤞🏼
Remember his encino man in SON IN LAW. That was great
Also showed up in In the Army Now. Loved the running gag.
Dude airheads was my still is my favorite movie its absolutely classic
He's so handsome and talented
Monkey Bone, Bedazzled and Encino Man are my favorite Fraser movies.
This was all just beautiful. David and Dana calling themselves narcissists in the beginning was hilarious. They did great continuing to talk about Brendan and his career + the Whale.

@@ifyouonlyknew811 Why are you trolling different comment sections on videos about Brendan Fraser?
@@RogueMamaStitcher1
Because I have a TH-cam account and I like watching fiction.
This one really benefits from listening at 2X speed!
Yes do “The Tree” movie David!!!
Do it with Dana & all your friends from grownups too!!!
I will go to any movies you guys make!
You guys are super-talented and funny. I saw your names, and I subscribed just like that!😄

"I dont wanna interject but I love to interrupt David" 🤣🤣 David, Dana and Theo need to do a podcast together.
Church lady!!! Thank you!!!
My friend Spencer would love this.
Love it!
his voice is very much like kelsey grammar. very intense.
I own PCU and Airheads on DVD. Both great for an occasional watch.
Amazing show❤️
Brendan is versatile. I love blast from the past .
Check out Dana in the movie "Moving" lol with Richard Pryor, pretty funny.
I'd love to see Fraser in a Rodney Dangerfield biopic. I think he could do it. His character in Killers of the Flower Moon gave me that idea.

Could not hear 60% of Fraser’s comments. Could the editor have made Fraser’s parts louder?
He was probably on the phone nursing a hangover.
Fraser.... Freezer / Razor...Fraser....Nice Guy
David Spade: me me me! Come on! Let other people talk!!
Surprised Bedazzled wasn't mentioned
It's like he's down on the comedic movies. He doesn't talk about Blast From the Past either. And he only mentions Encino Man when he talks about the early part of his career.
brendan fraser is a heath ledger. ‘nuff said.

@@markl1930 I feel like there's got to be a story behind it.....but that might just be my brain wanting some drama LOL
Brendan Fraser an amazing actor with a brilliant performance ... in a complete dog of a movie. Fraser is the only redeeming feature in The Whale.
love Brendan, and holy shit a church lady appearance. oh yeah and spade was there too i guess ;)
I know you two were on this podcast but all I heard was Brendan’s voice
Hell yeah
❤❤❤
He’s such a cool dude. Too bad y’all kept interrupting him. Y’all sounded so conceited.
