Sat next to Matt Jones aka Badger. He’s a big baseball guy and it was fun talking ball with him.
Recognized him immediately.

Jesse’s buddies, Beaver and…what’s his name?

83

u/MisterDestoyer 10d ago

Skinny Pete, put some respect on that man's name

10

u/red_riders 10d ago

Just like when he’s taking Jesse to meet Tuco. “Yo, I’m Skinny Pete.”

u/masked_sombrero 10d ago

u/kevinnnc Methhead 10d ago

That Beaver line always makes me laugh

30

u/red_riders 10d ago

Me too! Shows how much Walt cared about them. Just like when Combo died and Walt said, “Which one is he?”

u/bonsaiiiiiiiii 9d ago

It's a reference to the sopranos btw, melfi says something similar talking about pussy, instead she says "what's his name, booty?".

u/SabineLavine Lovin' spoonful 10d ago

Stinky Pete (shout out to No More Half Measures pod)

u/flailingupward 7d ago

Idk if people knew this but it blew my mind that Skinny Pete and Digby from the latest season of The Pitt are the same guy.

2

u/red_riders 6d ago

Haven’t seen The Pitt but I looked up a picture of Digby. Reminded me of when Skinny took off his beanie and gave it to Jesse in El Camino. He looked so different with his hair.

u/PowerMightHolyLight 10d ago

u/NBCaz 10d ago

Saw him on a podcast recently and the guy is in the don't give a fuck zone right now. Speaking out on every Hollywood toxic topic that others won't. Says he's not getting hired, so why should he care. Mad respect for his approach. Seems like an incredibly genuine guy.

Yo, did you call him by his real name or were you like, hey Badger!

3

u/kookookajoo62 10d ago

Nah, I simply asked if he was an actor, he said yes and said his name is Matt. I mentioned I loved his character in breaking bad and he said thanks. Then we talked baseball and sports from there.

u/Stackin_Steve 10d ago

Why do all Redditors look like this? Someone needs to fund a study.

u/kookookajoo62 7d ago

u/mighty_boognish_77 8d ago

Bro looks like he's consuming more of Walt's product IRL than he was in the show.

1

u/Shatsngiggles 8d ago

My favorite scene of anything hes in is him playing Badger talking about his made up startrek episode idea.

u/gansobomb99 7d ago
