>> OH, GOOD.
>> Stephen: YOU'RE JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED.
>> YEAH ( LAUGHTER )
>> Stephen: BECAUSE WE COULD ALL USE A LITTLE CHILL.
AND AS I'VE SAID BEFORE, YOU ARE THE CHILLEST GUY I'VE EVER MET.
YOU'RE JUST A LITTLE XANAX IN A SUIT.
HOW IS YOUR CHILL LEVEL GOING RIGHT NOW?
>> WELL, UH, I HAVE BEEN BOOING, SO, YOU KNOW -- BOOFING, YOU
KNOW, SO, I CAN HANDLE IT.
( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )
>> Stephen: GOOD FOR YOU.
AS YOUR AGE, WOW!
>> WELL, NO, YOU'VE GOT TO KEEP IT UP.

WELL DONE.
LAST TIME YOU WERE HERE, WE WERE DOING THERAPY WITH CLAY.
>> LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE ROLLING A JOINT, MAN.
>> Stephen: I WOULDN'T KNOW.
OF COURSE NOT.
>> Stephen: I'LL TAKE YOUR WORD FOR IT.
WE WERE MAKING LITTLE MODELS WITH CLAY.
>> YEAH.

THE CLAY.
I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING THAT FOR A WHILE.
THANK YOU FOR THAT.

>> PLEASE.
>> Stephen: BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT A GREAT BEARD GAME.

>> OH, GEE, I CAN'T REALLY REMEMBER, BUT FIRST MOVIE MAYBE
WAS KING KONG, I HAD A REALLY BIG OLD --
>> Stephen: SURE, BROWN BACK THEN.
>> YEAH.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: THAT WAS
DIFFERENT.
>> IT'S A DIFFERENT COLOR, NOT A BIG DEAL.
>> Stephen: YOU'RE A COMPLETELYIAN, YOU CAN CHANGE
YOUR BEARD COLOR ANYTIME YOU WANT.
>> I WAS DOING A LITTLE THAI THING, WHEN YOU HAVE FACIAL
HAIR, YOU CAN DO STUFF.
YOU HAD ONE FOR A WHILE.
>> Stephen: I THOUGHT IT WORKED.
I WANTED TO ASK YOU TO EVALUATE MY BEARD.
>> OKAY.
>> Stephen: HERE'S A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE OLD
COL BEARD RIGHT THERE.
THERE IS ONE VERSION.
>> OOOH!
HANDSOME, MAN!
>> Stephen: THAT'S OKAY.
THIS IS WHEN IT GETS A LITTLE OUT OF CONTROL.
THERE IT IS.
( LAUGHTER ) >> YOU COULD USE A LITTLE DIE
JOB.
>> Stephen: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> I LIKE THAT.
LOOKS GREAT.
>> Stephen: MY FAVORITE, WHY AREN'T I MARRIED TO YOU?
( LAUGHTER ) >> YOU KNOW, MY WIFE DOESN'T
LIKE THAT SAND BEARD THING GOING.
>> Stephen: THAT'S WHY IT'S GONE, BABY DOLL.

>> Stephen: SHE MAKES ME SHAVE.
( LAUGHTER ) MY FAVORITE BEARD OF YOURS IS
OBADIAH.
>> THAT'S MY FAVORITE.
>> Stephen: I TRY IT.
DOES NOT PLAY THE SAME WAY.
( LAUGHTER ) YOU'VE DONE A LOT OF PARTS WHERE
YOU HAVE A BEARD.
DO YOU EVER LOOK AT A SCRIPT WHERE YOU SAY TO THE DIRECTOR, I
THINK THIS GUY'S GOT A BEARD?
>> NO.
BETWEEN GIGS, I JUST LET ALL THE HAIRS IN THE BODY, YOU KNOW, GO
TO TOWN.
AND THEN YOU START TO SHAVE.

>> Stephen: JUST PEELED FROM THE NECK DOWN.
>> YEAH, YEAH.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: SOMETHING THAT
YOU'RE EXCITED ABOUT AND SOMETHING THAT MIGHT INCREASE MY
CHILL IS A DOCUMENTARY YOU PRODUCED AND NARRATE CALL
"LIVING IN THE FUTURE'S PAST" WHICH IS A TRIP, THE NAME, TO
BEGIN WITH.
>> IT'S A METAPHOR FOR TUNING INTO WHAT'S ALREADY HERE, MAN,
THAT'S IT.
>> Stephen: THE PRESENT IS THE FUTURE'S PAST.
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
AND IT'S ABOUT, YOU KNOW, ALL OF US AND ABOUT THIS RAPIDLY
CHANGING WORLD THAT WE'RE LIVING IN, AND, YOU KNOW, WHAT ARE WE
GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS THING?
FORTUNATELY -- I'M TALKING ABOUT THE CLIMATE, YOU KNOW, AND THE
GLOBAL WARMING -- FORTUNATELY, WE HAVE KEYS ON HOW TO WISELY
MOVE INTO THAT FUTURE.
>> Stephen: WHAT ARE ALL THE THINGS YOU CAN DO?
DO YOU DO THE NO-PLASTIC STRAUS?
THAT'S THE TINIEST LITTLE THING PEOPLE ARE TRYING NOW TO GET THE
IDEA OF REDUCING PLASTIC DOWN.
>> WELL THERE'S A LOT OF CALIFORNIA IS BANNING THE
PLASTIC STRAW, YOU KNOW.
>> Stephen: REALLY?
YEAH, RESTAURANTS, CAN'T GET A PLASTIC STRAW.
>> Stephen: WHEN PLASTIC STRAUS ARE OUTLAWED, ONLY
OUTLAWS WILL HAVE PLASTIC STRAUS.

>> WHAT I'VE GONE TO IS PASTA STRAWS.
>> Stephen: IS THAT WHAT SOMEBODY --
>> THEY WORK BEAUTIFULLY.
THAT'S A PASTA STRAW, MAN.
>> Stephen: WAIT A SECOND.
YOU USE THIS TO ACTUALLY -- >> IT'S TOTALLY BIODEGRADABLE,
UNLIKE THE PLASTIC STRAWS.
YEAH, MAN.
>> Stephen: I DON'T RECOMMEND DRINKING HOT COFFEE WITH IT.
>> OH, NO?
>> Stephen: IT WORKS REALLY WELL.
IT WORKS REALLY WELL, AND I'VE BEGUN TO MAKE MINESTRONE IN
