“He goes, ‘Get out of here!’ I said, ‘OK.’ And I made the mistake of laughing. And when you laugh, then that makes them think, ‘Oh, this is a good idea.’ So I said, ‘No, let’s workshop this,’ " he continued.

“So then the second we have that, we walk three steps. Some guy comes up, ‘Hey are you Andy Cohen? Can I have a selfie?’ Ben goes, ‘Get out of here,’ " Cohen recalled.
