What Would You Ask Maria Menounos?
- Dec 17 '19
Larry King: Let’s play ‘It’s my two cents.’
Ben Schwartz: Oh I love it Larry. Let’s do this.
Larry King: This has to be one sentence-
Ben Schwartz: But this also has to be—none of us are thinking about anything-
Larry King: No other thoughts.
Ben Schwartz: Describe exactly what-
Larry King: I’ve been doing it for years, I used to write it as a column for ‘USA Today,’ for the ‘Miami Herald,’ and now I do it every Sunday on my Twitter, it’s my two cents, I send out 25 items, I just dictate them, and I don’t send them, I dictate them, I used to type them. They just come through my mind, they all have to be one sentence.
Ben Schwartz: Okay that’s great. One sentence.
Larry King: There’s no actor like Wallace Beery.
Ben Schwartz: [Laughs]
Larry King: That just popped into me.
Ben Schwartz: Cottonelle wet wipes should be loved by all.
Larry King: If you put too much butter on popcorn, you kill it.
Ben Schwartz: Oh my goodness. I cannot agree with that more, by the way. We can get into big debates on that.
Larry King: No you don’t have to agree with it, that’s the best thing about it.
Ben Schwartz: Um-
Larry King: That’s not the way it works, Ben.
Ben Schwartz: All right, fine, I’ll just think of a random thing-
Larry King: I’ve never had-
Ben Schwartz: I’ve got it, I’ve got it. Matzo ball soup should be hotter than regular soup.
Larry King: I’ve never had an affinity for pumpkin pie.
Ben Schwartz: [Laughs] Why do pumpkin seeds exist?
Larry King: I’ve never read a good biography of Benito Mussolini.
Ben Schwartz: [Laughs]
Larry King: See?
Ben Schwartz: Why do you have a microphone in front of you?
Larry King: That makes no sense.
Ben Schwartz: It’s not plugged in, aren’t you, this little thing like me-
Larry King: It’s a fake.
Ben Schwartz: That’s what I was saying, that just came into my head. Go, keep going, we’re in it now.
Larry King: Like all things, life is a fake.
Ben Schwartz: Ooh I like that, I like that very much. Baseball seems boring, but I’ll watch it every now and then.
Larry King: Baseball is my favorite sport, period.
Ben Schwartz: I know, that’s why I said it.
Larry King: And we’re out of time. But I want to tell you this, Ben. In the history of annals, there is and was and will never be, a better duck.
Ben Schwartz: [Laughs] Oh come on!
