Breaking Bread With Nick Turturro

We're beastin' out with actor and former WWE superstar Shad Gaspard! This guys is an ANIMAL! He acts, he writes, he wrestles, he boxes, and everything else you could name. Next thing you know he'll be doing brain surgery! Shad's family originates from Haiti and Curacao before they came over the NY so the man knows what sacrifice is. Love a guy who can enjoy the little things. Let's see more of him on the BIG SCREEN! Big Nick might even make a movie with him! This freakin' business. The main is an incredible athlete and has performed lines night after night in front of thousands of people! Him and Big Nick met on set and he fixed Nick's equilibrium! Picked him up, shook him around and BOOM! Maybe he actually will become a doctor haha. This guy understands the hustle, but why isn't WWE talked about more? Kids now a days can put a cell phone video on the internet and millions of people become obsessed with them. WHO THE HELL ARE THESE MOTHER F**KERS?! Welcome to your new favorite podcast! Big Nick Turturro and N

HEY, HEY, HEEEEY! We are back with Big Nick's old pal Lou DiMaggio. They met through mutual Adam Sandler and then Lou introduced Nick to LARRY FREAKIN' DAVID! Lou actual had a role in season three of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Pretty much all improv and just an outline of a script. Larry David is a freakin’ conductor. The guys actually used to do their own baseball podcast together back in the day. Everything comes full circle! The two also once wrote a script together called "Living Large with Nick Turturro"... maybe that was it... who the heck remembers. It almost sold, but Nick got too wild and excited during the pitch. We all know there's no holding Big Nick back when he gets going! Lou has been all over the biz, though: stand-up, writing, acting, you name it. He actually just had a documentary about him come out called “Where Have You Gone Lou DiMaggio.” He was coming up back in the day on the stand-up circuit. Then he moved to LA and got into writing. Makes sense, he’s a smart guy. But now, he's getting back

LOVE YANKEES vs. DODGERS RIVALRY! With the Yanks in LA last week for their three-game series, we're doing a special episode on the rivlary. Big Nick shows off his collection of Yankee and baseball memorabilia, which includes an INSANE hat and jersey collection. As a kid, he was lucky to even have one. Certainly making up for lost time! But we gotta take a second for Nick Nick to hold a bat right. DON'T CHOKE UP ON THE DAMN THING SO MUCH! Then we have a special interview with former Dodgers 3rd baseman, the Ron Cey himself, to talk over historic battles between the two teams. This man is a legend! He's won penants, hit 316 home runs and played in the 1981 World Series against the Yankees! Hey, we're Yanks fans through and through, but you gotta show respect. After that, it's time to hit the ballpark! LET'S GO YANKEES! Time to represent for NYC. And also... WTF JOC PEDERSON?!?! Welcome to your new favorite podcast! Big Nick Turturro and Nick Nick are Breaking Bread! Nick is letting us into his life and his lif

"El Guapo" comin' in hot! Former UFC heavyweight champion Bas Rutten is in the house! We figured they've chalked it up on the big screen plenty in Here Comes the Boom, Paul Blart, and Zookeeper so it was time to drag his ass in here AND BREAK BREAD! Bas just finished touring around the country with our man Kevin James for Kevin's stand-up tour. It's great to see Bas transitioning into entertainment because he's meant for it. WHAT A CHARACTER! The man sure has some stories. He went from being bullied as a kid to putting on martial arts demos in Holland night clubs and fighting for world titles to acting in big films and doing 19 episodes for CBS on Kevin Can Wait! WHAT A RIDE! It can be tough coming up in the biz. Back in the day, Big Nick and his brother had to put down their own money to get projects going. YOU GOTTA FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU LOVE! Hey, speaking of fights, there are some big MMA fights coming up with Daniel Cormier vs. Stipe Miocic at UFC 241 and Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Dustin Poirier at

Yo, the fellas are back from London! They hopped across the pond to take in the sights and see the Black Eyed Peas. Shout out to our man Taboo! They also grabbed lunch with Paulie Malignaggi over there. When Nick and Paulie get together it's non-stop talking! THESE NEW YORKER BOYS, AM I RIGHT! Big Nick and Nick Nick took in a Yankee game after they got back to the States. Almost missed the game because of the damn subway! Sabrett hotdogs are the best, BUT NO FOOTLONGS! Nick likes his wieners short and thin! Period. The Yankees put Big Nick up on the screen at the game! The guys had some issues with their flight back to LA so they ended up in Las Vegas instead and went to the Manny Pacquiao vs. Keith Thurman fight last-minute. What a crazy ride! Oof, but the next morning Big Nick's back was hurting so much HE COULDN'T WIPE HIS ASS! Where you at, Nick Nick?! Probably out getting into trouble. Turns out, that kid got banned last year from the hotel we were staying at. What a story that is. You know who's a good

Josh Wolf and Big Nick are two birds of the same feather: actors, entertainers and baseball fans! Josh actually played ball back in college. Let’s see if he’s got any tips for us! But we’ll take them with a grain of salt since he’s a Red Sox guy! HAHA, NOW WE’RE REALLY BREAKING BREAD! These guy dive deep into the game. Is the hall-of-fame voting rigged? Why aren’t closing pitchers playing as many innings anymore? Everyone goes on about the radar gun and pitching hard. If batters are missing, then he’s pitching hard! Nick actually shot a pilot with Josh’s cousin Gary. YO, SHOUT OUT TO GARY! Everybody loved it, so what happened? Hollywood just doesn’t want to pay up these days. What’s great about guys like Josh and Nick are they feed off and interact with people in real life. None of this laugh track BS. That’s probably why Josh is such a great stand-up.
