I know Penny was on SNL in 1975 she was still married to meathead Rob Reiner from All in the Family at the time. She was on the episode of SNL with Reiner. The Rolling Stones had completed a tour at the end of summer of 1975. The cocaine would probably explain Penny's divorce with Meathead.
    There was also a lot Cocaine & drugs on & off the set of SNL including those that died too early like John Beluish.

    The thing I don't really get though is why coke specifically? I have done loads of coke in every ROA except boofing, and I can not imagine myself purposefully wanting to do coke unless nothing else was available. Idk especially if they are just doing lines. I am honestly shocked mlst of Hollywood isn't actually going meth crazy. I mean you can absolutely get away with being normal with meth as long as you refuse to smoke it, rail it, and definitely don't shoot it (you'll never want anything else again). Im honestly just flabbergasted that they are dosing 100mg (which you absolutely don't need) in little gel caps. Maybe they are all prescribed Adderall idk. Amphetamines make coke seem like... Well like caffeine in a can lf coke lol

      The coke in the 70s was real coke. Medical grade shit. Keith Richards said a guy would come backstage and hand him an ounce and it'd last him a whole tour. You do a line and you're good. By the time the 80s rolled around, it was cut to shit and no good. And meth is a whole different thing. I know what you mean - but meth will hollow you out. And it's way too hard to stay even and not tweak out on it - especially if you're trying to do anything productive. And meth just takes way too much of a physical toll on you - IMO. If money wasn't an issue, I'd still do shitty coke over meth. But yeah, I've always said meth is a wonder drug - it works amazingly well if used right. I'd do a bump right now if I had one. I shot it once years ago, and it was probably the worst drug experience of my life. It was horrible, and a dumb thing to do. I also think they are all on Adderall though.

    Host in insufferable 🤦🏻‍♂️ No one needs your commentary. Your asides are derailing the interview. Nothing you can say is more interesting than Paul Schrader. Ask the question, then get out of the way.

    You really couldn't tell how much Adam sucked when he was in a third wheel role on CT. He's truly a sniveling, uninteresting monster.

    Wow, Adam is doing a great job as another thing on the set that is not Adam. Show so bad, CumTown so good

    That's the problem with Hollywood today. People aren't doing drugs anymore, and we all see the effects.
