And we're hanging out talking and I said, I'm so sorry I never saw Easy Rider ,' and I thought he was going to hit me or something. But he was like, You've never seen it?' I said No.' He's like, Well, why don't we have an Easy Rider party at Mark's [Steven Johnson, director] place and I'll narrate the film for you guys.' And so, literally, he did!”
