Mike Damone

Also, by the way, the same place that Rock and Roll High School was filmed.

Let's revisit our friends Stacey Hamilton, Mark Ratner, Linda Barrett, Mike Damone, and of course, stoner dude Jeff Spicoli, who I realized while doing this was basically less in high school, and all the other students and teachers of Ridgemont High circa 1982.

Here's me and Les.

I'm amazed, to be honest.

Our guy, Carlos freaking De La Fuente.

If only Bender... met Mike Damone, what a chat that would be.

I can't even really process that.

I'm going to have to take time to figure that out in my head, but that's an amazing call, bringing two of the all-time greats together.

I, like, love it.

So let's go a little bit now to, 'cause I'm sure everybody wants to hear, and you probably get tired of answering questions about, but let's talk about, uh, Mike Damone, Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

First of all, you play the fast-talking ticket scalper, self-proclaimed ladies' man, who teaches Mark Rat Ratner his infamous five-point dating plan.

And because of that, basically everything that you google about you says that you were one of the film's most memorable characters.

Oh, no, no. [laughs] I wish.

What part did, what part did you play?

Mike Damone.

Which one was-

glorious.

It's like the old words of Mike Damone.

You won't regret it.

Seriously.

I think she had a rough time with both of them.

Yeah, she lost the virginity to that guy, and then, you know, Damone was a minute man.

Yeah, and he left his socks on inside of the pool house.

A lot of guys in the early 80s didn't take their socks off during sex because you get hot and heat and say, hang on, let me take my socks on.

Also, you got Tootsie for you artistic folks out there.

And Fast Times at Ridgemont High, which Damone, still my favorite character of all time.

Then Poltergeist, another great movie.
