-Last time you were on the show, we talked about the fact
that you had a very nice cameo in "The Irishman."
Got to do some work with De Niro.
-Yeah, a little bit of walk and talk with him.
-You did a really nice job. You were selling caskets.
-Yeah, you know, as they say in the business,
it was a walk and talk.
Solo. Me, one on one with Bobby.
You know, Marty was over there talking to us,
letting us know, "Just be yourself."
That's what he told me.
-Hey, Action, are you doing curls with your phone right now?
Because it's just going up and down.
-It's going up -- Nah, I'm excited.
And then my fingers, they just do what they want.
I'm sorry. I have jazz hands.
Pardon me. I'm trying to hold it as steady --
-You have jazz hands right now?
-I do. -[ Laughs ]
I'm trying to hold it as steady as possible.
So, yeah.
I mean, to be honest, being on a movie set is just unbelievable,
especially with those types of legends.
And I just -- I can't even believe that it happened.
-It was amazing.
And I think you must've picked up some stuff from those guys,
must've refined your chops,
because the next time I saw you in a movie,
"King of Staten Island"...
-Oh, that's right. -...scene stealer.
A scene-stealing performance.
-Ooh! Oh, that makes me feel really good.
Thank you very much, sir.
I mean, you know, listen,
they gave me a big opportunity, you know? Pete --
I went in there with him and Judd and a bunch of people,
and we kind of, like, just went back and forth,
just talking [bleep]
And they loved me, and that was that.
I came in there, and I knew Marisa Tomei was in the scene,
so I had to step up.
-Yeah, absolutely. -You know what I mean?
-That's a high bar. Marisa Tomei is the high bar.
-Well, just put it this way.
I've been in a movie now with Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei.
-You're doing -- You almost got the full Vinny.
-"My Cousin Vinny." Now I need Ralph Macchio.
-You get a Macchio, and then it's the full Vinny.
That's every -- [ Laughs ]
-Oh, man.
It was like I was a fireman, but I wasn't.
-[ Laughs ] -You know?
-I hadn't gone through the training.
-You are getting in fireman shape.
And, you know, we know you from --
as someone who likes the good life.
You like to indulge in good foods
and maybe not often the healthiest foods.
But you are indeed eating healthier.
You are imbibing of the green juice.
How has the green juice treated you?
-The green juice is a beautiful thing.
Kale, celery, green apple, ginger, little lemon.
It's one of the greatest things on earth.
It's lowered my cholesterol.
It's taken away any chance of diabetic situations.
I've lost like 80 [bleep] pounds, man.
80 pounds is a lot of weight.
And I'm still fat. So, like I said, it shows you
that I was a fat ass [bleep]
-[ Laughs ]
-Right now, I'm just an ass [bleep]
-Did you take to green juice right away,
or did you have to develop a taste for it?
-Nah, I still don't like it.
I don't like it. I just pound it.
I put as much as I can into a huge, like, milk jug
and then just down it with a metal straw.
I don't know. There's just certain techniques.
-Now, I have to ask,
maybe you'll be out on the road soon hopefully touring.
Maybe you'll be doing another season of the show, God willing.
But if -- When this ends, when restaurants are open
and everything is robust again,
where is the first place that Action Bronson's going to go?
-Oh, my Lord.
It's sad to say, but we've learned --
just all these places, you know, like, this is all pleasure.
This is all pleasure.
We could all get by without this stuff, and it's sad to say.
But Don Pepe's would be the first place I'm going in Queens.
-Yeah. -Stuffed peppers,
chicken parm, linguini clams.
That's when I get to my goal.
30 more pounds to go,
and then I'm going to allow myself to have some fun.
-30 pounds is going to line up right with vaccine,
restaurants open, a perfect --
And you're going to go to Don Pepe's.
Ralph Macchio is going to be there.
The whole world is going to shine its light on you.
-It's all going to come to one -- to a head.
-Hey, it's always a pleasure to see you, buddy.
-Man, you, too. -Congrats on the show.
You're looking good. -Thank you, bro.
-And hopefully next time in person.
-I can't wait. Much love.
Thank you for having me again, as always.
You're the best. -Alright. Thanks, Action.
-I can't wait to bring octopus towards you again.
[ Both laugh ]
-Deal.
