It's good to see you, Ben
Thank you so much.
I have not seen you in a while.
So good to be here.
I know, it's been, like, two years since you've been here.
I know.
Well, I came, like, for the movie before the last one.
Right.
And I wasn't avoiding you.
I was just, you know, doing the rounds.
Exactly, I know.
But a lot has happened in two years.
And you look healthy and happy.
And I'm happy for you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
You know, it's interesting.
It's like, it's sort of-- there's a temptation to get,
like, I could get depressed.
I could feel like, oh, I've been through a lot.
And this was hard, and that was hard.
Or I could be kind of embarrassed.
But I have to say I'm like, I feel so good now.
I'm in such a great place.
My kids are healthy.
You know, life is good.
And so it's sort of like, whatever
it took for me to get to this place, you know, I'm grateful.
Good, I'm glad.
I'm glad.
You know, Jennifer's been here a lot.
But I didn't know that this was the only show
that your children were allowed to watch.
Yes, that's right.
This is it.
Only mine.
You know, you have one of those things in split families,
you sort of, like, go back and forth.
And you want to come to a sort of agreement on the rules.
And I'm a little bit more liberal
on the screen side of things and the video games and the TV.
But this is something that we can both agree on.
And so you're a coach on your son's Little League?
I am.
Yeah, I'm a coach on the Little League team.
And it's going great.
He's awesome.
It's a lot of fun.
The kids are great kids.
I do have to wear a Dodgers hat, because that is the team.
But you know, that's like-- it's like here you go.
All right.
Some locals.
But you know?
It's like one of those things.
You love it so much.
It's just, it's like the dad dream,
you know what I mean, to be the coach.
And coaching your son or your daughter on their Little League
team, it's very exciting.
And so people have been very cool.
And Netflix-- I had a game last week.
And I was promoting the movie.
And I was going to Asia.
And I was like, I have to come back a day early!
And there was like, you know, what's the--
and I was like, my son's Little League game.
I'm the coach.
But thank you, Netflix.
They did let me.
They would understand that.
Netflix is-- they're the best, right?
They're great.
Especially to work with.
So let's talk about that Triple Frontier.
Tell everyone what it is about.
Triple Frontier is a movie.
You saw a little clip there.
And basically, the back story to that is it's
about these guys who are special forces operatives.
And these are the soldiers who do, like,
this sort of massive share of the combat
duty in the military.
I mean, they're endlessly deploying,
a lot of missions, very, you know, stressful, traumatic,
a lot of casualties, you know?
And it's very difficult. And they become really, really
kind of expert at doing this.
And then, get to a point in their careers, their age,
where they become the best of the best of the best.
And then they sort of retire.
And they go out into the civilian world
and find that, you know, it's not always easy
to make that transition, and that those skills that they've
honed and developed in that capacity
don't necessarily translate to, like-- my character's trying
to sell real estate, you know?
And a lot of these men and women who come back from the service,
there's, you know, a lot of depression and divorce
and suffering, and obviously, PTSD.
And also, just the transition back into civilian life
is difficult. And so these guys, you know, get sort of tempted
by this offer to rob this drug lord.
And there's a little bit of greed and a little temptation.
And they have financial pressure.
And so then they get swept up into it.
And bad things happen.
Yes.
Didn't go as planned.
Yes.
And so you all went swimming together.
And there was a photo of your back tattoo
that got a lot of attention.
It did.
Not so much positive.
No.
I think people-- it's a commitment.
It's-- what is it?
It's like a--
It's a Phoenix.
It's a Phoenix, which--
Rising from your ass.
I didn't-- we didn't plan that bit.
No, we didn't.
But it's--
That's what you get when you're a comedian.
You can do that kind of thing very quick.
Yeah.
Where was I?
Anyway, yes.
It's a Phoenix, rising from my ass.
And I was about to say it represents something
really important to me.
But you know what?
Maybe just--
No, you can.
We'll skip that.
You can say that.
It does represent something important to you.
Yeah, it is.
It's meaningful to me.
I like it.
It's something that I sort of kept private.
It wasn't like I was sort of doing photo shoots or whatever.
We were two hours north of the city on some island in Hawaii.
And we didn't know the paparazzi was there.
So they got a picture of my tattoo.
And yeah, the sentiment ran, you know, against, which I think,
I love my tattoo.
I'm very happy with it.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's your tattoo.
It's your back.
Luckily, I'm the one who has it.
Yeah.
