MT: Um. [Long pause.] I don’t know. I do remember one thing he said to me. Joe Rogan was being so fucking mean to me one day—and mostly we were all friends, but Joe could be a weirdo—and I was sort of upset about it, so I was just sitting over in the corner. And Phil came over and put his arm around me, and he said, “You know, I just want to tell you you’re loved.” Isn’t that really nice? I know you expected me to tell some wacky story about Phil, but he was like that, too. He just put his arm around me and said that. He was so sweet. He was a really nice man.
And I have serious doubts about the Andy Dick - Lovitz story. Andy’s crazy, but I doubt he’d ever go there and he’s generally fairly honest. I believe him when he says he considered Phil a father.
Lovitz, however, has a history of feuding with people out of nowhere.
The dude was known as "the glue" on SNL for a reason. Never cracked in sketches & always put full effort into the sketches, even the fucking awful ones.
I'll be honest, after seeing Andy on Norms old YT show I was surprised. Always hated the guy & his attention seeking 'shenanigans' but he was great. In fairness to Lovitz, Dick seems to be the guy who got Hartman's wife back on the coke in the first place. I know it's not the same as handing her the gun but he played his part, unfortunately.
I don’t generally have anything against Andy Dick, but he’s got a reputation around Hollywood as the guy you don’t want to show up at your party because he’s so unpredictable and volatile. And that’s in a town that routinely sees old men hosting young teenage boy fuck parties.
I remember reading that he'd been kicked off 2 indie movies in 2017 for the usual antics (groping, sexually propositioning crew members etc) It amazes me that people still hire him despite his reputation.
Wasn't he escorted off Kimmel for getting too handsy with Ivanka?
Andy Dick is a weirdo and I'm sure he's extremely difficult to work with, but he also talked about Joe Rogan being a bully on the set of NewsRadio and I believe him.
Joe was always an aggressive closeted bully with one of the biggest small man complexes of all time, and then he discovered weed at age 40 so he thinks he is a free-thinking lifestyle guru.
His little man rage still comes out all the time, especially when he had that fag Redban on his show. He even did it to that douchebag Schaub. While it was funny to watch Schaub squirm, that was absolutely Joe just being in a bad mood and wanting to humiliate the guy rather than any real care for his health.
Saw Andy Dick get into a hit-for-hit, stare off, slap fight with a small Asian woman at Cobb's in SF about 16-17 years ago when he was touring off The Andy Dick Show. He ended by pacing around on stage for the next 30 minutes crying and screaming "SHE WAS OUT OF LINE!!!"

From the article:
AVC: Do you have a definitive Phil Hartman story?

A deeply repressed homosexual acting cattily towards an attractive woman? Sounds highly unlikely.
1 TurningFrogsGay 2019-08-11
Pathetic if true.

I'm sure she's exaggerating. There's a well-thumbed copy of Frank Vincent's seminal tome visible on the desk in every episode of JRE.

That’s jerk-off material for him.

He spilled a soda on it! That's the only reason some pages are stuck together!

Joe's book will be "A Guy's Guide To Being In A Man's Ass."

Hartman was a good egg. I'll always respect Jon Lovitz for giving Andy Dick a beating after Dick said "I put the Phil Hartman hex on you - you're the next one to die"

Never heard a negative thing about Phil.
And I have serious doubts about the Andy Dick - Lovitz story. Andy’s crazy, but I doubt he’d ever go there and he’s generally fairly honest. I believe him when he says he considered Phil a father.
Lovitz, however, has a history of feuding with people out of nowhere.

Speaking of Norm, did you see his tweet where he said he's going back to YouTube?
1 Vawsh 2019-08-11
TYFYS I'm Not Norm.

Jon Lovitz beat his ass for getting Phil's wife on coke again which swiftly led to her erratic behavior and murder-suicide.
Jon Lovitz is a saint on Ert.

He is, and Maura's talked about what an adorable pain in the ass freak he is. Joe, on the other hand, is an asshole weirdo.

Oddly enough one of the things Rogan would bully him about is his pot use. Dick said that once on his old show on Sirius.

That’s what happens when you bottle up a lifetime of homosexual behavior

He's much more calm now that he has his "hunting trips"

Probably the funniest he's ever been.

Sounds amazing. Worth the ticket
1 WNEW 2019-08-11
Having lived in LA for the past 10 years now, it’s insane how many everyday ass people have an Andy Dick story
1 ElFaporino 2019-08-11
I'm guessing mostly negative?

There can only be one queen on this set. Dollar, dollar bills y’all.

More like 3 dollar bill...

She looks odd in that picture. She use to be pretty.
1 MonsterSteve 2019-08-11
She looks like a Simpsons character with that upper lip
1 Boxocox696969 2019-08-11
She’s like 50 now. Back in the day she was adorable
