Nicolas Cage's Wednesday night appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! was apparently his first chat show in 14 years — and he's clearly been saving some anecdotes up.

The interview above really just has to be experienced first-hand, but to give you a sense of it here are a few of the things the Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent star talks about:

  • Winning $20,000 and giving it to an orphanage

  • Buying a two-headed snake

  • Owning a talking crow

  • Almost purchasing a cave for naked spelunking purposes

  • Being stalked by two mimes

Are they all true? None of them? Who knows. And maybe it doesn't matter.
