Larry David on Working With Bob Einstein | The Bill Simmons Podcast

[@TheAlexstam]

The first episode of Norm Macdononald show with Super Dave is one of the funiest things i ever saw

[@caringpenguin5097]

I'm not PART OF THIS!

[@torrey88]

“WHO’S WRITING THIS!?!”

[@dasiegel]

"YOU READ THAT!"

[@sm40oztofreedom]

The greatest

[@SirVic42]

I still want to know where he got his ideas from.

[@Jenn_ngs]

RIP Bob Einstein🙏🏾✨

[@bondi-e2s]

his brother Albert is funny too.

[@johndicarlo225]

I like that guy..

[@hiphopperman963]

You spelled funkhouser wrong

[@hiphopperman963]

Sorry, not you, the guy right before you.

[@dudedabsworth8023]

Bob used to come into a restaurant I worked at. I was huge super Dave fan and he was a great guy. R.I.P.

[@miketoonice]

Wish Larry was on more often. Great pod

[@CaptCanuck4444]

Love Bob Einstein so much. His 2 episodes with Seinfeld on Comedians in Cars getting coffee are absolute comedy gold. RIP.

[@juandenzer637]

We miss Bob. Truly an iconic actor/comedian for those who grew up watching Super Dave in the 80s

[@jessefritsch4323]

Bob was a national treasure. ❤

[@gabone324]

The pod with Bob Bill and Cousin Sal is one of the best

[@TreeLibrary]

Hahha Super Dave was reusing material! The "screaming out the window of the car" he did on Norm's show, too. That's the sign of a real funnyman....know what works...

[@jamesfeldman4234]

I've never had a problem with a comedian doing material I've heard the comedian do before. If a comic's got something down to perfection in delivery and timing, like Bob Einstein does (and did) I will find it hilarious no matter how many times I've heard it. Like when Don Rickles tells you, "I've never liked you." Don had used that line his entire career. Those old Dean Martin Roasts are still funny scores and scores of years later.

[@tedtamada]

Loved Bob Einstein since his Officer Judy days. Just funny and so damn smart.

[@jerryjanik480]

I tell that Marty Funkhouser joke or that Bob Einstein joke at funerals at weddings anytime I'm down and out that makes me laugh

[@paulferranti8536]

Super Dave was a legend when I was growing up...his appearances on Letterman were great also.

[@85jongo]

Sucks Bob didn't live longer than the show. Funkhowser was an amazing character.

[@hiphopperman963]

Funkhouser

[@chadtellevik5479]

He was my favorite.

[@85jongo]

@@chadtellevik5479 I really hope they find a way to pay tribute to him somehow in this final season of Curb.

[@jacoscofield5150]

Bob was the best ! RIP

[@mikeross4937]

I loved watching Super Dave when I was a kid.

[@AyeCarumba221]

I can’t imagine Curb with any other supporting actors. All of em were just classic.

[@jorgito2729]

One of the best jokes of all time!!

[@glennrobinson8868]

one of the best characters of the series

[@clivet3252]

it's a shame they replaced him with Vince Vaughn whose only similarity is his height.

[@goatcheese4me]

My favorite Bob Einstein line from Curb. Quick setup: Larry, Jeff and Marty are at lunch talking about Richards new burlesque girlfriend and theorize the only reason he's dating her is her large boobs. Richard comes in and the guys give him a hard time about it, but Richard is adamant that he's dating her for more than her body. Bob interrupts Richard with "Have you set a day aside when you are finally going to look at her face?" both Jeff and Larry burst out laughing, which likely indicates this was heard for the first time in that moment. YT search: Curb Your Enthusiasm - "Are you dating a Burlesque Dancer" - Season 8 Ep. 2

[@WendySmith-o2e]

Jeff's uncontrollable giggle gave it away, for me, that Bob threw that in unexpectedly 😂 I saw him say in an interview that Bob was the #1 culprit to cause him to break character

[@bsmith1164]

Yes. Such a great setup. Anti-semitic shithole was a close second.

[@becameabird]

Bob Einstein is the goat

[@claykemper7193]

Those disasters on Super Dave Osborne were amazing, especially the piano on the bus getting smashed going through a tunnel.

[@YukonJon]

Marty Funkhouser is my favorite television character ever

[@davincerica7232]

Funkhouser was the best part of the show

[@timmcelroy2188]

Everything Super Dave did was hilarious. So underrated

[@leroyoneill1929]

The Funkman!!! What a legend. RIP Bob Einstein.

[@withershin]

Super Dave and Fuji Hakayito live on in my soul.

[@weirdalpopovich]

it's criminal we don't get video pods at least when there is a big guest on

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

Honestly I hate the way podcasts have now been pushed into video. There's a really cool open source method for podcasts apps using RSS and Google and Spotify are trying to break it. Just to get more ad revenue.

[@ItsFrankieBoy]

The FUNK Man!! lol Man I miss him on the show

[@PakRT48]

When Marty Funkhouser and Larry's dad Nat were gone, I felt the show began to lose steam. Leon was great in his own right, but nothing could match the earlier seasons.

[@alexbelfor9451]

I grew up watching Super Dave. What a talent.

[@kennyjames4679]

Superdave will never be forgotten.

[@nickbarcheck1019]

That's tremendous.

[@Fent-]

Upload the whole thing Kyle

[@ChristopherRobinson-l5v]

I almost died during my childhood… Of laughter. Watching Super Dave get slammed into the basketball backboard by a catapult.

[@oneilljryan]

RIP also the brother of Albert Brooks.

[@D0NTMESSWITHTEXAS]

Super Dave and Fuji Hakayito were my favourite pairs.

[@lizzyphinsfan9927]

Bob Einstein is a genius. The Palestinian chicken episode is perfect TV

[@drewpowers7236]

"I can eat in this anti-semetic sh*thole"

[@gringostarr7858]

I loved his appearances on Conan & letterman

[@Tuningforks85]

Its like im drinking a straw from a frogs ass 🤣 still gets me. Rip bob

[@gringostarr7858]

R.i.p. super dave, bob Einstein.

[@marthamydear5869]

RIP ❤❤❤❤

[@EndoftheTownProductions]

Does Simmons mention Larry Bird or the 86 Celtics in this clip?

[@eboooo]

His brother Albert brooks (Einstein) was a simpsons og writer.

[@TubbyBrewster11]

And voiced the incomparable Hank Scorpio! “No-one ever says Italy”

[@hiphopperman963]

Yes, Hank Scorpio, no, he wasn't a writer.

[@Isleofskye]

He is,also,distantly related to a great Scientist...

[@Basil_Kehoe]

I love when Bob appeared on Gilbert Gottfried’s podcast. God he was so damn funny it is in believable.

[@spb7883]

That joke is an old one: I saw Kevin Pollack (impersonating William Shatner) do it on Comedy Central decades ago.

[@Isleofskye]

I saw Andy Bradbury do it in The Late 1960's...

[@Phil-tt3xg]

If Larry loves people he loves bob.

[@bwuh]

I believe Jerry's laugh actually lasted about a minute and they cut it down/overdubbed different laughter.

[@TheVinceb100]

i couldnt stand "super dave" when i was a kid. as an adult i agree, Bob Einstein is one of the funniest guys ever....Norm too.

[@garyspence2128]

I had the same reaction to Super Dave at first. Would see him on Letterman or some other shows, and ask myself: " What the hell is this guy doing? That's not funny." But as time went by suddenly it clicked! Maybe it has something with getting older and jaded. Who knows? But the last decade or so, when I see him, he's just brilliant. Same with Norm, though I always knew he was an instigator. Sneaky funny. Wish that Albert Brooks was still doing stand-up, since I loved him way back when. Even before he started doing movies like Lost in America, etc. Oh well, now I reminded myself that I'm old. So it goes...

[@buckyvonbuck2410]

Super Dave Osbourne started on the Bizarre show hosted by John Byner.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

No but you're very close 1972 and it was called the John byner comedy hour. That was after Bob came off of his great stints on laugh in as officer Judy

[@heystonepony]

His Officer Judy character actually originated on the Smothers Bros comedy hour on CBS not laugh in

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

@@heystonepony I do believe you're right

[@NevadaBoss]

We've lost a lot of the comedic greats in recent years...the great Normie Macdonald, Gilbert Gottfried and of course the Funkman. "Martin, Shana...Shana, Martin" from the single funniest scene of Curb, Palestinian Chicken. A lot less war and a lot more sex=world peace. Rip Super.

[@YesImJoeKing]

And now we just lost Richard Lewis 😢

[@DippyHippie]

👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@LukaLegend77]

post the damn podcast, fuck spotify

[@YourCritic]

Bob Einstein was sooo sooo good in Curb. Was so sad to hear when he died. One of the other sad consequences of his death was that he was semi-replaced by Vince Vaughn. He's probably a nice guy and all, but just not funny in my opinion.

[@clivet3252]

Oh he's terrible. He's so out of place in that show. I don't know why they brought him in.

[@jacklawer6389]

Rip Bob

[@Federalwaywebbs]

Comedy ran through his veins. His mom named his brother Albert on purpose for laughs.

[@david.chilin]

I miss little orphan funkhouser rip bob Einstein

[@evanmuller1967]

RIP Bob AKA Super Dave AKA The Funkman

[@nunyabizness7792]

No farewell or significant mention of Marty after Bob's death. Sure hope there's something in this final season.

[@richardgaudreault2887]

Seinfeld reunion wasn't that good, but curb is still my favorite show by far, much better than Seinfeld.

[@hiphopperman963]

Disagree. It was a great way to do a reunion show without all of the bullshit.

[@marclindblom9562]

Tell the folks at home

[@thegreatrenaldo7718]

I heard he was an orphan in his 70's

[@Trife76]

Fuji Hakayito

[@Aqquila89]

So Bob Einstein did in real life what Larry did on Curb when he was in The Producers.

[@raulduke6105]

Miss Big Funk

[@CharlieKayne]

gold

[@jjdillon1207]

I stopped watching espn and haven’t financially supported pro sports because of Simmons. Best decision of my life. Also Larry David should vote for Trump.

[@Weshopwizard]

DONT YOU TOUCH MY YARMULKE!!!!!

[@crypt0bank446]

jerry laughng at the jpke was better than the joke

[@paulnolan4971]

So much funnier than Albert Einstein.

[@Isleofskye]

I just found out Albert Einstein was a real person! All this time I thought he was a theoretical physicist...

[@jeffreymacintyre2711]

He couldn't afford a better rug?

[@richj011]

The joke was that hair piece

[@damonhackney6142]

This place is chock full of Funkhousers.

[@danr6175]

The Big Funk

[@readmelancholystrumpetmaster]

Marty was the biggest jerk on the show! He outdid them all!

[@paulnolan4971]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@J4sse]

Little orphan funkhouser

[@justgivemethetruth]

Bob Einstein was a lot funnier than Vince Vaughn. I dread every scene with VV. I don't know why it is that he is just wrong for this kind of humor.

[@clivet3252]

I totally agree. He's so out of place. There's just something unpleasant about him. If they brought him in as some horrible guy that everybody hates then he could work, but as part of the group of friends he doesn't work at all.

[@TJB1510]

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH MARTY'S VOICE..?..

[@TJB1510]

The actor who plays Funkhouser, Bob Einstein, died suddenly from cancer in 2019.
