Let's call down the gym Kevin Smith.

Welcome to spot guest. I'm Kevin Smith. All right. So we've been doing

episodes of clerks to T O O a podcast that I record at small castle back in Jersey where I talked to everybody who was ever involved in a clerk anything.

And it's been a real who man sitting down with folks who were with me boots on the ground in the trenches by in the track for what would become my entire career fellow architects of the

view of the universe, if you will. And this week, man, we got some good. I'm going to sit down and talk to my boy Mike Bellacose, the OG silent ball, who's most famous for

saying to Dante after Dante said 37 microphone suck 37 Dicks Mike said in a row, it's Mike Bellacose. And then we talked to Thomas Burke. I'm a Rufa done and ready. Home improvements.

And Thomas talks about life with clerks and including having a kid who wound up with them in clerks three is a great sit down Ernie O'Donnell Castle,

Kasselkeeper Ernie O'Donnell pops in to add to the proceedings. It's absolutely bliss. I love smart castle Ernie. So it's such a great job building. And I love going back there and do shows.

So intimate, so wonderful. This show was absolutely one of those evenings. So I'm going to split it up.

To get two episodes out of this. So here's part one of clerks to episode three or four. I think three. Here we go.

Good evening everybody and welcome to smart castle. I'm Kevin Smith. Hey. Tonight kids were going to do another episode of this podcast series that I'm doing called clerks to TOO.

Very whimsically titled. And the idea of course is that I wasn't the only one in clerks. I'm talking about clerks, moral fucking life. But I wasn't the only one in clerks. Everybody who was in clerks has a story about it and what how it's affected their life since and stuff.

So we've done it a few times and had a really good time doing it. We're going to do it again this evening, of course, with two wonderful people who were in both clerks and fucking the forth coming clerks three as well.

But to just set this in a moment in time for those not in the room. I was just at a wedding. And it's bears. Some semblance of Venn diagram crossover with this place to some degree in as much as you remember a picture called chasing Amy. There's a montage in it where they're falling in love like in New York and shit or just hanging out and falling in love.

And they're in Washington Square Park and Joey is sitting next to Ben and he's reading time out and just Gavin and not looking at her. And she's bored and she goes off frame and then comes back in with a little girl on pig tails like that kind of resemble the pigtails that Joey was wearing.

And replaces her and then fucks off and then Ben keeps chatting and finally looks over and sees this little girl little girl smiles at and stuff. That was my little cousin, Carrie Ann. And she got married tonight and it was really fucking sweet, man, down it to in Belmar, the shore, something sure in.

And I've been to a wedding in a good fucking long time. It was it was pretty fucking romantic. They, you know, they introduced like the wedding party and they had a lot of fucking people in their wedding party.

And they line up everybody dances in and shit and then they line up and they bring in the bride and the groom. And to bring in the bride and the groom, fucking all of a sudden everybody lit up a lightsaber.

And created a tunnel and I was like, my people like it felt so seen and it wasn't even my wedding, man, I was like this rocks and they came through the lightsaber tunnel and then fucking dance. It was like really fucking sweet, man, but it made me feel very, very old considering.
