Flea: Remember the time we snowboarded naked down that mountain?

Ted Danson: We were really thinking about in honor of, you know, in honor of Woodstock, that we would be naked when you came in.

Flea: Well, we played, he and I snowboarded naked. I have footage of Woody Harrelson and I snowboarding stark naked down a big snowy mountain.

Woody Harrelson: Where was that? Was that up in-

Flea: I think it might have been Utah.

Woody Harrelson: Yeah, I can’t remember, but it’s actually great footage.

Flea: Yeah. I was gonna, I wanted to post it on Instagram, but Laura cautioned me against it that it might not be wise to have a-

Woody Harrelson: Yeah. I mean-

Ted Danson: It was cold. It was cold, so in your defense-

Woody Harrelson: Yeah. That would be my only defense, but no. We’ve had more fun, dude. More laughs. I just gotta say, the greatest times I’ve had with you, but you know, he’s also, you know, he’s very zen, but he also is competitive

Flea: Yeah. You know, we-

Woody Harrelson: What happened? We played basketball.

Flea: Well, I enjoy competition. Unlike you, I love the competition. I don’t really mind if I win or lose.

Woody Harrelson: I’m the same way. It doesn’t matter one way or the other.

Flea: I’ve seen you sulking after losing. I remember one of the last times we went, we were racing, and we were both reckless ’cause let’s face it. We go very fast, but we’re very average snowboarders. We have to admit that we’re average.

Woody Harrelson: Slightly above average.

Flea: Maybe. I mean, depending on the curve. Slightly below, slightly above, but you know.

Woody Harrelson: I wanted to get the slightly, it’s like when you say you’re 5’10” and a half.

Ted Danson: You’re just proving the competitive.

Flea: I’m 5’7″ and a half and I always put in a half, and I probably have shrunk by now and lost it, but anyway, so we’re racing and I’m like out of control rocketing down this mountain and I nearly take a lady out, but I don’t. I see her and I’m like, “Whoa.” Swerve out of her way and I miss her. All’s good. We’re racing. I can’t remember who won. Probably me, probably me, and we get down there, but then the lady, we’re getting ready to get on the lift and we’re laughing and yelling at each other, and this lady comes up and she’s infuriated.

Ted Danson: The skier?

Flea: The skier. This, you know, middle aged woman and she’s like, “You nearly hit me and you could have caught me. You’re out of control,” and I was like, “Ma’am, you’re absolutely right. I was out of control and I’m so glad that I didn’t hit you, but I’ll be much more careful next time. Please forgive me. I’m very sorry.” As you know, I’m neighborly. I’m polite, I’m considerate.

Ted Danson: And you meant it. You meant it.

Flea: Oh, I absolutely meant it because she probably got a little frightened. You know what I mean? But I didn’t, you know, I didn’t even touch her, and she was like, “Well, you’re an asshole.” Blah, blah, blah, and I was like, “Ma’am, I’m very sorry.” You know what I mean? I’m retaining my composure. Then she takes her ski pole and sticks it in my face like that, and then at this point, I’m like, you know, I’m like, “Well, look. I’m fucking sorry but get your pole out of my face.” You know, and then Woody comes up and he just sees her pole in my face, and he comes to my defense like a good friend, and then she goes, “Well, my husband’s gonna come down here and he is gonna show you what for,” and then that’s when you’re like, “Bring the fucking husband. I want to see her bring the husband,” and then he comes and we’re like, I’m like, “Let’s just get out of here ’cause I feel this situation escalating,” and you and I get on the left, but you’re just like itching for a brawl and you start yelling, “I’m waiting at the top of the lift. I’ll be waiting up top,” and then you tell me, you’re like, “Nothing could make me happier. Nothing could make me happier,” and that guy comes up there and I realized there’s like a joy that you take in impending chaos.

Woody Harrelson: Yeah, yeah. That used to be true. That’s not like me anymore.

Flea: Have you outgrown that?

Woody Harrelson: Yeah, I think I’ve outgrown it. I don’t want to be that guy anymore, but honestly, I’m really, I’m leaning toward the spiritual part of my nature.
