Hi, this is Gilbert Gottfried and this is Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast with my co-hosts Frank Tanto Padre.

Our special guest this week is making a return visit to the show. He was on one of our early episodes way back in 2014,

but his career didn't suffer quite enough from that first appearance, so he's back to give it another shot.

He's a comedian, musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, occasional actor, and voice artist, a New York Times best-selling author, the most successful best-selling comedy recording artist in history.

This man has sold over 12 million albums, recorded more than 150 parody songs, and original songs and performed more than 1,000 live shows,

and his work has earned him 5 Grammy Awards and millions of loyal fans all over the globe.

His 2014 album Mandatory Fund became the first comedy album to debut at number 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, and on the single War Crimes.

War Crimes, well he's a Nazi, that's one thing I've known about him. Weird-out is a Nazi, and that's nothing first to put him down about.

Oh god. He's guilty of war crimes, but you gotta consider he was taking orders. And if you look on the history channel, you will see Weird-out marching.

Why don't we take it back to work crime still?

Which we'll talk about. And the single word crime.

He's a Nazi, that's not to be obvious here. If they put in the Billboard Top 40 making him along with Madonna, Michael Jackson and you two, one of only four artists who have top 40 singles in each of the last four decades,

you've also seen him in popular movies like The Naked Contrology, Spy Hard,

Bill and Ted face the music and the cult classic UHF, and on hit series like The Simpsons, 30 Rock, The Goldbergs,

Bo Jack Horseman, and How I Met Your Mother, an American Dad, as well as the ingenious, but canceled Saturday morning series The Weird-out Show,

which gets stored some guy named Gilbert God. But wait, there's more. He's also the author of two best-selling children's books,

as well as the co-author along with our friend Nathan Raven, a but terrific illustrated book about his life and career,

Cold Weird-out the Book, catchy title. And in 2018, he received a well-deserved star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Frank and I are excited to welcome back to the show, one of the most accomplished sadarist and one of the most beloved entertainers of the century,

a man who says that when he's on his deathbed and looking back on his life, he'll probably wish he tweeted more. That great weird-out Yankeby.

I can't believe you memorized that whole thing. You ready to research Gilbert, that was amazing.

It's all his research is impressive. Oh, the top of your head, that's crazy. It goes deep. Wow.
