![]() No I love this I hope that we can do this for a lot longer you know, um, I think we all thought it would only be one or two seasons and I didn’t even know if I was going to be on it at first, and I didn’t know that this would be something I could do but I love it, I'm fairly good at it and it sure beats a real job The only downside is looking at that pretty smile that Rick has everyday, and that’s not even that bad. Would you ever change profession?ĬHUMLEE: Yeah I thought about being a Victoria’s Secret model once, but. I know it’s a weird mix but those are probably some of the top shows I like. Chumlee, do you have a top three TV shows of all time list?ĬHUMLEE: Wow I do, you might not have heard of them though, well you’ve heard of one for sure. Number one is Rob & Big, it’s really old, and then my second one is a love or hate one, it might even be my first one: Jersey Shore! And then my third would be a real TV show, not like a reality show, it would be The Wire, another one from a long time ago. It’s beautiful I'm going to go swimming, Rick, be jealous. Chumlee has entered the chat.ĬHUMLEE: I’m on the beach (tilts camera) nah, I’m just on my patio. Usually if it’s something different and cool, and it's normally based off an image on the internet, a really small one, and I think it looks really cool, I say bring it on in. Because with most of these things if you want to see if it’s real you’ve got to see it in person. Sometimes I actually have to stop the camera and do a little research, but in general that’s all me, I’m just that nerd you see on television and that’s how we do it. Sometimes I see just a picture of something and then I’ll approve it, and then I won’t see it again until it’s actually in front of me a couple months later. RICK: Basically if it’s something different and it hasn’t been on the show before. How do you choose what items appear on the show? ![]() Television is sort of like hot dogs – you really like it until you see how it’s made. RICK: I just watched Mandalorian and I’m not really a Star Wars guy but I thought it was pretty cool! Man in the High castle was pretty good too (currently on Prime Video), and I mean it’s pretty weird now because you can just stream whatever you wanna watch, but I generally don’t watch that much television. Rick, what are you watching right now on telly? If you come in with an expensive item we get your thumb prints, we get your ID and we turn it into the police or the FBI, but very rarely an idiot does that, yep, and I end up losing all the money on it. RICK: It rarely happens, I mean you’ve gotta be a real idiot to do it. Has anyone ever come into the store with stolen goods? It happens, but it’s a part of the business, you know, no guts no glory! Sometimes you strike out. I remember like twenty years ago I bought a book for twenty thousand dollars, which was supposedly signed by Shoeless Joe Jackson (Baseball player from early 1900s) which turned out to be fake. RICK: There’s been plenty of things where stuff hasn’t worked out, and you know, it’s sort of the nature of my business. What’s the worst item where you lost a lot of money? There’s a book which outlines a prediction that computers will be smarter than people in like twenty years, so it’s a really weird world we’re going into and I could just nerd out for hours about how robots are slowly taking all the jobs away! But I think the whole Quantum computing thing is going to change a lot of stuff. RICK: That’s a tough one! Quantum computing. In 20 years, what do you predict is going to be the next big thing that everyone will want to collect? They spent like a gazillion dollars on this super transparent glass and everyone had to social distance, when we weren’t filming everyone wore masks and what should have taken three months to film, actually took six months. ![]() ![]() RICK: This season literally had to be filmed with flexiglass between us and the customers. ![]() So what did Rick Harrison and Chumlee have to say about the new season, and what they’ve been up to in lockdown?
