David Spade on How He Survived Being Violently Attacked by His Assistant (2001)

[@ivenstorm]

sound effects were unneeded. Makes it hard to listen to.

[@thomasrobinette3227]

For real jeez.

[@weezer91101]

Negative Ives there was like 2 seconds of sound effects Debra downer lmao

[@utopian3d]

Apparently people aren’t familiar with the classic Stern show routine.

[@BR-qx5yd]

Totally agree

[@daveg4236]

Looks like Beck

[@chowder8802]

The sound effects are so lame wtf

[@dzfaz]

That's Fred for ya.

[@alcapoontangmooseinthepoos2310]

Bang Big they always are… that’s the beauty of Fred

[@SlXkxmx]

have to love children complaining about sound effects on a stern show...

[@Tx-do9fe]

Bang Big it was a different time chill your nipples brah

[@kostazarikos3383]

2001 for ya

[@avidcheater2860]

Spade literally has a funny comment to everything he hears at all times. Unreal power

[@seanmcd72]

The guy was supposedly on a cocaine bender, and pissed that he didn't get a particular bit part in Joe Dirt.

[@peartfaldo]

AND just a fat piece of shit;-)

[@WHYmsicalME]

David reveals in his book that Skippy attacked him because he was angry with him for promising him a part in a movie that later ended up going to Kevin Nealon.

[@pteromalid]

I'm glad Spade is still with us.

[@deidrestephens8255]

The way he throws jokes into his story just shows how comedy helps you through anything. So scary.

[@deadfr0g]

This definitely one of Kurt Cobain’s craziest stories.

[@Da_bird_]

deadfr0g lolollol

[@dubtownman9508]

🤣🤣🤣

[@VinnieVega]

Lmao

[@s4dreamland671]

FAF!

[@GuadalupeGuacamole]

Dammit man🤣that took me wayyyyyyyyt too long😂fffffuck me🤣

[@clayton_1000rr]

I can’t help but think that there’s got to be more to this story than what he’s telling....

[@kayleyraemusic]

clayton sandland Always is (not to discredit him) it’s just that context is everything.

[@squiddog5000]

He told Kevin Nealon that Skippy flipped out because Sandler editted Skippy's part out of Joe Dirt. Kevin Nealon played skippy's part as the mechanic in Joe Dirt.

[@J-lah7928]

Right? He knew exactly why his assistant wanted to kill him.

[@kellybrian9378]

clayton sandland HE HAD OFFERED THE GUY A PART AND THEN RENEGED ON IT. THE GUY WAS PISSED ABOUT IT.

[@slipnorris5882]

He probably banged someone girl

[@StrangeStories12]

So I got my shotgun "oh so you have a shotgun?" No that's just what I call my spatulas

[@thedavidjscott_]

The sound effects don't add anything special, they're more disorienting and distracting.

[@StevieD.94]

David Spade was 37 in this interview that’s wild

[@JonathanNelsonOfficial]

That’s ironically a very Joe Dirt thing to happen.

[@peterpetruzzi]

"It puts the Joe Dirt in the hole"

[@angelone1839]

Haha

[@s4dreamland671]

It's Deertay, it's French...

[@cowspoopmagic]

It was all to get him into character

[@swill1020]

If anyone wants to hear an uninterrupted detailed version David tells this story on Hiking with Kevin you tube channel

[@ritawood9980]

Thankyou Scott. I just went to Kevin’s channel and listened to this story.

[@frankiefrank3422]

scott williams yes! Or in his book

[@snailordskates384]

“He’s still breathing hard to this day”😭😂

[@CraigStCyrPlus]

Those sound effects are unnecessary and obtuse.

[@SlXkxmx]

As are these moronic comments being posted over and over again complaining about the sound effects. I also love idiots coming to a Howard stern clip complaining about sound effects...

[@JW-wp3yh]

Craig St. Cyr yes, very large sound affects.

[@brendanlorenzo7298]

At least it gave you a chance to finally use the word of the day from Jan 23rd, Obtuse.

[@Travel_Cebu222]

Or were they "acute"? 😂

[@oldschoolgoblin]

Yeah freds annoying

[@ginaloverofangels]

I'm such a big fan of David Spade, so horrible to have a close friend that would do this to you. I wish you would have pressed charges against him. So happy to see your alright.

[@foodbutter225]

0:20 I love how fast he responded with that joke 😂

[@SSsmith24]

What a life this guy has led

[@cathycola3499]

He's been through so much 😢 Love his humor! His show on Comedy Central is great!

[@NEpatriots88]

I remember hearing about this in ‘01. It was much more intense than Spade was letting on. I understand that he was trying to make light out of it on a comedy show but the dude could have been killed. Can’t believe this was 19 years ago holy shit I’m getting old 😢🤣

[@youtubeme7195]

This is natural response to a surprise situation consisting of trusted violence. "What are you doing" "why" "Are you kidding me?"

[@dillonstave]

The sound effects are distracting

[@SlXkxmx]

Child, don't come to a stern clip complaining about sound effects.

[@distalion]

@@SlXkxmx lol

[@kensuke0]

Sl3201 Xkxmx Old man, collect your social security and quietly retire as the kids speak sense.

[@stankinmybank]

david spade was attacked by his assistant and the world was SHOCKED... to find out david spade could afford an assistant - pete davidson’s best joke

[@TheDoh60]

she has a weird sense humour. "So he hit me again" she laughs

[@A-ROD-oe8wl]

Weird as girl

[@2020girlygirl]

I love David Spade, he’s hilarious and I’m glad he survived!

[@Eyesofmars2040]

Met his mother in Scottsdale. She is one of the nicest people.

[@urtalkintogus]

This is a wild story. Wasted opportunity to get the best out of this one.

[@LeandrosAmarantidis]

There are more HS clips with Spade with way more details on the motive and what not. Also one of my favorite Spade AM messenges to Howard where he tries to convince him ghat Sal is going to do to Howard what Skippy did do him. 😂

[@Studeb]

He has told it later with more perspective, for example he realized that the guy knew where his shotgun was and that he was going for it.

[@VeeLondon1449]

Somebody you know and trust.. Scary.

[@Se7enDsinSGaming]

Then you really must not have heard about Dane Cook's brother embezzling millions and Dane having to put him in prison...

[@A.C.71]

most people are closer to losing it than you may think.

[@Mrgrumpypants84]

Little tip.... Most of the time, its someone you know and trust.

[@Christian-oi7sd]

@@Se7enDsinSGaming oh woah I never heard about that??

[@williamresham703]

Somebody you know and trust...and do a lot of drugs and partying with...

[@DeterminedGoat]

God damn ask for some more useless details Howard, I couldnt picture the wall paper in my minds eye.

[@WaylonCampbell]

Haha right! Your comment got me, shits great

[@avardmacgregor746]

Wow! First I've heard of this. David plays it cool but you can tell it still freaks him out. Thank goodness he got away.

[@robbiekekic749]

Joey ramone needs to stop interrupting kurt cobain

[@freda2758]

That's horrible. I don't see any humor in this story just because he's a dude. This is crazy.

[@james10739]

I found it pretty funny

[@Unlucky13_s]

Fred A yeah wtf. Ever been beat up? Shit ain’t cool, you are right.

[@GearsJosh56]

He’s a comedian of course he’s gonna make it funny

[@that_guy_pal]

James Holbrook don’t cut yourself on all that edge you got there kiddo

[@ProudFilthyCasual]

That’s the comedians job.

[@kurdtkobain2885]

Man I absolutely love the shows from this time period. Especially when they would do on location shows like this or Other Vegas shows

[@christinalynn8143]

God Bless Comedy and Comedians. Thank God for laughter.

[@minnipearls3633]

Wow never knew this happened to him... thank god he’s alive!

[@JoJo-jy2rw]

2001 - BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) - David Spade's former personal assistant pleaded guilty to assaulting the comedian with a stun gun and agreed to seek counseling for drug and psychological problems. Beverly Hills Superior Court Judge Elden Fox also sentenced David Warren "Skippy" Malloy on Thursday to five years probation and ordered him to stay at least 100 yards from Spade and perform 480 hours of community service.

[@zoelynch1062]

David never changes. I truly love him.

[@tem9470]

There's nothing more 2001 -- or I guess 2020 -- than flames on a long sleeve shirt

[@thomasrobinette3227]

"Hes still breathing hard to this day"

[@KimSearch865]

I like Howard’s in-depth interviews these days so much better! I’ve heard David talk about this attack more seriously and it’s intense!! We almost lost our Spade!!

[@fawvertyler]

Kimberley Searching he’s grown ALOT as a radio host. This version is what “crazy it’s and the douche” make fun of on parks and rec

[@ashzole]

Farley or Spade? Farley didn't need spade

[@taylorbranson7790]

Spade always keeping it real.

[@mikekim8630]

I’m so glad you guys released this story. They always joke about skippy but never go in detail about the story.. lol spades stories are great BTW!!

[@c-light7624]

Only David could make a harrowing, violent experience light-hearted and funny. I guess it’s easier to talk about after the fact.

[@danniamendoza9260]

Davids voice is my fav

[@wesleyjohndelaney106]

"Trying to be cool" You are cool brother haha Always good stories from this guy 🙌

[@posossom]

“I thought it was OJ” haha haha

[@Diddy-w1n]

This actually happened to me. My ex girlfriends baby daddy broke into my house and nearly beat me to death at 530am while I was asleep in my bed.

[@AAFroes]

Young David Spade was looking good!

[@alisa-bg1wr]

so good!!

[@rolandofgilead43]

if you want really young Spade Check out Police Academy 4 that was filmed in (1987) and he looks like a teenager in it, in fact he may have been a teenager in it.

[@kevn99]

We were all hot in 2001.

[@amandabequette7185]

I always thought that and people said I was crazy.

[@abortionsurvivor6639]

This interview wasn't in 2001 geniuses.

[@Anzner1993]

The attack happened on March 9th and i get recommend this March 9th..... Good one KZbin

[@astroboy4162]

There is more to this story than what David Spade is admitting to.

[@AJ1990.]

It really never came together until here more recently, that Spade is one of the coolest mother fuckers to ever walk this earth.

[@PaulMartindale721]

I had this same exact thing happen to me other than the stun gun, slept at this chicks house who conveniently didn't tell me she had a giant psycho boyfriend. The difference was that indeed was naked. Lol

[@WithJazzyx]

Hes a comedian. It's very hard for comedians to talk about personal problems. CHILL EVERYONE

[@BalladofJanine]

Nice rewind of Spade...love that dude

[@mr.monitor.]

I thought this was just going to be a funny story like he usually tells. Now I can't go to sleep.

[@punstress]

After that, David cut Skippy's hours down to just twice a week. (rimshot)

[@sweetbeats]

Legend says that giant beach ball is still spinning under that waterfall.

[@yeetboi9817]

The world was shocked... to find out David Spade could afford an assistant.

[@jesame27]

If you buy his book or audiobook he explains it all

[@cdv130]

It's hard to picture Spade with a shotgun

[@elroc1]

David Space actually seems like a pretty cool guy.

[@partypoison219]

All I hear is Kuzco and this would be something that he’d say 😂

[@TheDewaltBoy]

First time i heard of this, crazy i go to look it up and this video was uploaded less than 24 hours ago, wild stuff lol

[@Toocoolforunclesam]

Holy thats attempted murder and the guys out walking around still on bail.

[@furiousd123456]

this happened 20 years ago lol

[@JW-wp3yh]

Daniel no statue of limitations on attempted murder

[@Mrgrumpypants84]

Where did you get attempted murder from?

[@tomservo5007]

How in the hell is a DA going to win a 35 year old case of 'attempted murder ' ?

[@TheHannibalTV]

wow

[@rubberchix]

You suck

[@realQuestion]

too many people in the comments not understanding Fred's humor with the sound effects there's a "serious" version of this story that might have happened in the studio, but this was outdoors at the Playboy Mansion, okay...so it was appropriate

[@8JFJK8]

Hahahahahha its 2020 its taken waaaaay too long for me to discover this hahahahhah

[@ButterBallTheOpossum]

He's so lucky his assistant didn't have a gun

[@kingmufasa2021]

I've heard David tell this story at least 3 times and fuck is it a good story.

[@ArtyMars]

He’s so cute here wtf

[@mrmojorisin241]

So it turns out that the assistant wanted a role in Joe Dirt and Adam Sandler made David give it to someone else, and the assistant didn't forgive him about it. Kevin nealon KZbin channel has a hiking video with spade where he says that.

[@muchomusiclibre]

I had that same shirt in 2001. Spade rocked the beanie before it was popular.

[@franklopez3235]

Thank you for the upload! i love these throwback videos!

[@ErndawormsGamingAndToys]

I never get tired of hearing that crazy ass story 🥴

[@letch2436]

U can see his pain in his face They didn't want him out of the club!!!!

[@richsackett3423]

Wow, Spade's a pretty generous guy. I'd have ventilated that door without thinking twice.

[@lailasandoval9338]

a jock strap and a sailors hat"- the funniest thing david spade has ever said

[@macklemorganfreeman8488]

This is why everyone needs a Cliff Booth

[@amber22431]

Howard Stern is fkng LEGEND!!❤

[@masonlee5866]

I love David spade

[@ronniejaye1]

I saw a guy that size have a diabetic reaction and totally did the same thing.

[@LeandrosAmarantidis]

Ron Cosby but instead of Spade he was chasing insulin filled donuts!!! Hey OOOO

[@Colombia20102018]

Ron Cosby did what?

[@ButterBallTheOpossum]

Yeah bro no joke. I worked with a crane operator who destroyed a whole worksite in his crane. It took three firefighters to wrestle him out of his little operator's box. Blood sugar makes people do insane things

[@WofulAverage8]

As in a murderous rage?

[@theshadowfax239]

He got a weapon, went to his friends house, broke in using multiple security codes, made up a story to tell his friend to explain why he was there and find out if his friend is home alone or not, and then beat he guy up? The guy you saw may have gotten violent, but a diabetic reaction isn't this calculated and planned. I call bullshit.

[@Cg-ru3eh]

6:30 good to see u tho take it easy hahah

[@eyeheartsushi2212]

Corruption City “Just trying to be cool“ 😂😂😂

[@kurtislucien9052]

"They still don't know" was a lie

[@TheRichardCabeza]

Kurtis he probably caught Spade molesting little boys.

[@imapaperdoll2218]

Yeah I thought the same thing....so why did he?

[@11Garrett11]

Yup

[@TheProphegy]

“I thought it was a dream.” 🤣

[@lisaward9202]

Man,Howard Stern has changed so much in 19 years ago. The show format is weird,glad they changed it.lol

[@sebeku2]

What's with the all those sound effects??!

[@Doorito_]

This was a live special lol

[@TomSmith-gw6fn]

This was a special live audience broadcast at the Playboy Mansion.

[@Aliisa554]

Lisa Ward this was at the Playboy Mansion. Normally he was in the studio like he is now 😊

[@hrtro]

David and Adam Sandler have the same “aHAhaaaa”

[@robertbaker50]

I first read Skippy as the video was starting and I'm thinking Edbassmaster, Skippy stare lol

[@crypt0bank446]

He got attacked because the assistant thought he was getting a minor role in a Sandler movie and then Sandler cancelled him and replaced him with Kevin Nealen. So the assistant blamed Spade. lol

[@User25199]

Not that he looks old now , but he looks young as hell here

[@tickedoffnow]

God Bless David scary industry

[@BorgJumper99]

i legit thought my fbi agent turned on his mic on accident for a second

[@ClarkRahman]

The sound effects semi ruin this story.

[@SlapChop1000]

Any person named "Skippy" is trouble...just look at the character named Skippy on the hit show Family Ties back in the 80's..the guy was stalking Mallory for 3 seasons 😂😂

[@PlutoTheGod]

Only Howard could be so popular and good at radio that they’d host a radio show live at the mansion. Any other radio show it wouldn’t even be thought of

[@monicapyle]

He tells more behind the story on the KZbin show "hiking with Kevin nealon". The assistant was mad because he didn't get a part in Tommy boy and I suggest you watch the video. Very interesting

Wow, somebody REALLY didn't like "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star".

[@devinwilkes7400]

Is just me or this description sound like Chris Farley was under the influence ?
