Hey everyone, welcome to another,
you know what this means,
welcome to another Solo Bolo Ho Ho Holo.
Who knew Hulu'd the Solo Bolo, we're back.
We're better than ever, a lot of people saying Solo Bolo.
A lot of people are saying this, a lot of people are saying we're better than ever. A lot of people are saying solo bolo. A lot of people are saying this.
A lot of people are saying we're better than ever.
A lot of people are saying we're better than ever.
Solo bolo, ho ho holo.
Ho ho holo.
The first ho ho holo we've ever done.
Because Sonic has never come out during this.
We never did a bolo before.
Sonic has never come out during Christmas before.
Never during Christmas, right.
What a special time of year.
All I want for Christmas is Jews.
Is Sonic.
Jews?
Okay, sure. You know what I mean? Although Christmas in Jews? Well, Hanukkah, it's the day after Christmas, sure. You know what I mean?
Although Christmas in Jews?
Well, Hanukkah, it's the day after Christmas this year,
you know what I mean?
I think, isn't Hanukkah the day of Christmas?
I think it falls right on Christmas or something this year.
Is it 25th or 26th?
I think it's on the 25th this year.
Should we ask ChatGBT or that callback won't make sense?
Shit.
I'm gonna look it up, you keep talking.
I will keep talking.
Hey everyone, this is another very special bonus episode
of Comedy Bang Bang. Oh, it's so special.
It is so special, guys.
You know what this voice means, of course.
It's the holiday season,
and we have a very special guest for the holiday season.
He is, of course, you know, not a Christian,
so it doesn't necessarily make sense.
I shouldn't have said anything about Judaism.
Now it's gonna be this.
You open the door. Well, I'm gonna tell you this right now. I shouldn't say anything about Judaism. Now it's going to be this.
You open the door.
Well, I'm going to tell you this right now.
I opened the door to the idea that you were right.
It is the 25th and it is exactly that.
Why do I know more about this than you?
You don't have to.
It's just you're a good person.
I like to know about everyone's thing.
I don't want a lot for Christmas.
And I...
What is that song?
That's, I think, what you're singing.
Is that the background?
There's just things I need to know.
And I don't know. I don That's I think what you're singing.

We'll get to this a little bit later.
You know what these dulcet tones mean.
You know the fact that Sonic-
Smooth dulcet tones.
You know the fact that Sonic is coming out tomorrow.
You know we had to do it.
It's another episode of Comedy Bang Bang.
My name is Scott Aukerman
and I have a very special guest with me here.
You know him as the elegant Mr. S. You know him as the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog,
which comes out, its third edition comes out tomorrow.
Please welcome back Benny Schwa, aka Ben Schwartz is here.
Sonic the Hedgehog, colon, the third edition coming out tomorrow.
Very excited. Me, Keanu Reeves, Idris Elba, Jim Carrey, James Marsden,
Tika Sumter, Natasha Rothwell, Adam Pally,
Colleen O'Shaughnessy.
Pally's back.
Do you need more Lee Mandip?
Yeah, Pally's back.
Pally had his own TV show, a spin-off.
I know, I heard about that.
God, we should get him on the horn, see what he says.
We gotta get him on the horn.
Why do they think, why do you think they said
get him on the horn?
Did they talk to him on the horn?
Hey, do you think they talked to him on the horn?
Do they used to talk to him on the horns?
Because one time.
Back in the 80s or something?
Cut to where we find out they absolutely did. Yeah. Welcome back. What's your favorite part of Christmas? They used to talk in horns back in the 80s or something.
Cut to where we find out they absolutely did.
Yeah.
Welcome back.
What's your favorite part of Christmas?
What's your favorite part about Sonic
and what's your favorite part about Christmas?
I think same answer for both.
Ben Schwartz.
The general vibe.
The general vibe.
I love that.
For Christmas and Sonic.
I love that.
Ben, it's great to have you back on.
Of course, we've done these solo BOLOs so many times over the years.
Is it six there?
Seven?
Who knows?
But we've never had one quite like this.
We've done solo BOLOs.
A little bit of research.
We would have taken a very tiny bit of research for you to figure that out.
The tiniest bit of research may have helped me in this regard.
Just knowing what number we're at.
We've done a Halloween-themed one.
We've done a solo BOLO.
That had to be called Boololo or something like that.
I don't know what it was called.
Got a little bit of research, man.
Just the tiniest bit could have assisted me so greatly.
But- Do you think this is the 10th?
If this is the 10th, we should go all out.
We should, okay.
If this is the 10th.
If this is the 10th, we should go all out.
Whatever the first commercial break is, we check.
We half-assed.
We half-assed at the second half.
Okay, good.
So let's ramp up as if it could be either.
This could be the best one of all time.
Okay, so we gotta get ready.
If this is the 10th, this is the best one of all time.
If it's not.
Okay, if it's not, we're gonna check at the break.
If it's not, when we come back from the break,
we're gonna be downcast.
It is gonna be sad.
It's gonna be really sad.
We gotta look them up.
What are the things we do in a solo bowl?
Yes.
A lot of times we kiss.
A lot of times we kiss?
On this show, we have a lot of different guests.
Guests of all stars, all stripes.
Yeah.
Ben, sometimes you're on the show.
As a matter of fact,
I think you may be on the next regular episode.
That seems like too much Ben Schwartz
to only do two comedy bang bangs a year
and then having back to back seems like too much Ben Schwartz.
It seems like too much,
but we'll let the listeners be the judge.
Okay, they'll absolutely tell me.
During an executioner.
Oh, wow.
But I will say that what are solo bolos?
Yeah, what are they?
Usually we have a lot of different guests on.
Ben put the challenge to me once.
What if we did episodes where we had no one else?
It was just the two of us.
And fans of our collective voice
would just be going crazy during it.
They would love it.
They would love it so much
because they wouldn't hear any of these other guests
interrupting us. They would love this. It's just the beginning much because they wouldn't hear any of these other guests interrupting us.
They would love this.
It's just the beginning part of all of our other episodes.
Exactly.
Only we stretch it out over an hour.
Now we did it once and we said, that was amazing.
It was maybe the best episode we've ever done.
We were high-fiving.
I remember the high fives.
We were in the-
We butted.
Oh yeah, we were in the, what do they call it?
The gym, the dressing rooms. do they call it in the gym?
The dressing rooms?
Have you never been to the gym?
The gym?
Have you ever been to the gym?
I've been to the gym once or twice.
What do they call the dressing rooms in there?
I refer to everything by theater terms.
Lockers?
Yes, the locker room.
Thank you.
Well, it's because when I worked...
When we took intermission during our bicep interval
and we all adjourned to the green room, backstage area.
Backstage area.
In any case, we went to the locker room.
We hit the showers afterwards and we were like,
the best we ever did it.
Yeah, I remember that.
We were snapping our towels.
Oh, snapping our pals, playing our dicks like guitars.
Snapping our pals.
Snapping our pallies.
Yeah, I remember when you were doing bicep curls
and I said, okay, you have five more
and you said, thank you five.
Yep.
What other theater stuff could we do?
Yeah, what else happens in the theater?
I think that's everything.
We did intermissions, we did thank you five,
that's about all. That's it.
Yeah.
Hey kids, if you ever wanna go to theater school,
those are the two things you learn.
Hey, if someone came up to you and said,
Scott, I wanna be exactly like you,
I wanna be the pod father, I wanna be the pod father,
I wanna be someone that hosts their own comedy podcast,
what would you tell them?
I would probably have to murder them
because I'm the only one. Coming for your job.
Yeah, they're coming for me.
They're coming for my neck.
I get it, dude. I don't want that.
I get it, dude.
Yeah, but people must come up to you, Ben.
Ben Schwartz is of course here,
people know him from House of Fives.
You have to remind them from one second ago?
Sure, why not?
Constantly reset. Jesus.
This is broadcasting.
So people must come up to you all the time
on the street and say like,
hey, I have no idea who you are,
but Sonic is my favorite thing.
So I Googled like who plays Sonic
because I love that voice. Sure.
And I saw your weird picture.
And then you happened to be passing
right at the same second that I did this.
Anyway, what's some advice of how to do
whatever it is you do?
What?
So you're asking the same question I asked you,
but in a way that made me feel bad about myself?
Yeah, exactly, yeah.
I would say if you really love it, go after it.
You can create stuff yourself.
Now you have a phone you can create
if you're passionate about it, go after it.
If you want to write. Buy a phone.
No, no, no, it's not buying a phone.
If you want to write.
Buy the best phone on the market.
No, I'm not saying that.
If you want to write, if you want to be a writer, write. There's new iPhones out there right now, right? It's not buying a phone. If you wanna write- Buy the best phone on the market. No, I'm not saying that. If you wanna write, if you wanna be a writer, write.
There's new iPhones out there right now, right?
It's not about that, Jesus Christ.
If you wanna be an improviser, get on stage and improvise.
If you wanna do comedy sketches,
film yourself doing comedy sketches.
If it ever says like, hey, do you wanna update your phone?
There's nothing to do with phones.
Make sure you update your phone.
You know it has nothing to do with phones.
It has everything to do with phones, Ben.
I guess, I guess.
Celebrities have phones, do they not?
Celebrities are just like us,
and you said that right off the bat.
I've always said that celebrities are exactly like us.
They have phones, they have pockets,
they have change in their pockets.
Nobody has change in their pockets.
Approximately seven to $15 worth of change.
You're naming yourself,
you're just saying you're a celebrity.
You don't have seven to $15 worth of change in your pocket.
No, I don't have any change in my pocket.
I don't believe anybody has.
Let me feel this.
Whoa, Jesus. Where'd you put my pants?
Where'd you just put my pants?
Aha, ever cadaver, my good friend.
Your pants are missing.
You can't not tell me it's magic.
If you went to go see a magician.
Yeah, good, let's get into this.
Okay.
How many times do you go see a magician?
Aren't you a magician at the podcast?
Of course, all the time.
How many times do you go see a magician per year,
would you say?
I'd say in my life, I've probably been to Magic Castle
three times and I've probably seen- Per year. I'd say in my life, I probably magic castle three times.
And I probably see- Per year.
No, no, no. Per Anna.
That's ever.
And then I'd say, which I loved, I loved.
And I've probably seen magicians, you know,
five or six more times since then.
So maybe let's say 10 times.
For a week, you must be talking.
No, sorry.
How many times you seeing a magician?
I go four times a week, definitely.
And then I'll- No, where?
I mean, that's, what is it?
220 times or so?
Can you give me back my pants?
I'm so cold.
Okay, if you were to go see a magician.
Okay.
And he said, okay, this is my big trick.
And then suddenly everyone's pants were off.
That would be incredible.
And then it turned into just like the biggest
fucking suck session.
What are you doing?
That's not the magic trick anymore.
What?
No, the magic trick is over.
No, the magic trick's over.
This was like voluntary.
So you think a full group of audience members,
the second everybody's pants were off,
they all get so horny. Aren't clothes
the only thing keeping us from constantly
having sex with each other? You're in trouble, man.
You're in trouble. You shouldn't be doing this.
You're in trouble. You can't talk about this.
Is this the last episode ever?
I was hoping there's one day you are gonna-
Whoa, whoa, whoa, you gave me back.
Your pants are back.
But now you gave me your pants.
Where are your pants?
We freaky Friday'd our pants.
Okay, but where are your pants now? On me?
No, my pants are where your pants used to be.
So you put on something.
All right.
God, your underwear's so weird.
Your underwear is just a little Captain America shield
over the tip of your dick.
Like a little Yamaka for your fucking penis.
Hey, it's the holidays coming up.
Happy Honda days.
Happy Honda days.
What's your favorite Christmas song?
We'll get to that when we do the Olympic Song Challenge.
No, we sing the whole way through and you know it.
Oh, that's right, don't we?
We do the whole time.
Happy Honda days.
Have you ever bought a Honda?
Yeah, I had a Honda Civic for like 10 years.
10 years.
Yeah, great, I loved it by the way.
We love the Hondas out there and-
Why are you doing this?
Well, because Honda's one of our big sponsors.
That's not true, is it?
No, yeah, yeah.
Well, I mean, we sell the big bows
that you put onto the Hondas.
For the Honda days? Yeah, for the Honda days, yeah. Oh, that's amazing. What's your favorite Christmas song? Let's see if we can sing it. No, yeah, yeah. Oh. Well, I mean, we sell the big bows that you put onto the Honda. For the Honda days?
Yeah, for the Honda days, yeah.
Oh, that's amazing.
What's your favorite Christmas song?
Let's see if we can sing it.
My favorite Christmas song of all time.
Start it, let's see if I know it.
I'll be home for Christmas.
I'm sorry I went away.
Uh-oh.
But I had to go and do some blow.
I don't think we listen to the same Christmas records growing up.
I'm pretty sure this is the exact same.
Who sang that? Bing Crosby?
Yeah, Bing Crosby. The Whistler.
The Whistler.
The Whistler herself.
When I find about a Whistler and I find out what I said,
another serenader, another one and man man and me I am the champion and nobody
nobody you know something I don't know what is the first Whistler and then being
Crosby took that name how good are you whistling whistle don't tell me it's on whistle. Let's see if I get it. Okay.
That's um, one horse open sleigh. Hey, okay. You know, you know, right.
I have no idea. It's uh, the song that ZZ Top plays in Back to the Future Part 3. If anybody got that, okay, now you do yours.
Do you remember what I'm talking about?
Where the guitars go upside down?
Yeah, I remember it.
Well, that's every ZZ Top song.
Oh, sure.
But I mean, it was in Back to the Future 3, wasn't it?
Of course.
It was the part we loved the most.
Oh, you're pretty good whistling.
Can you whistle sucking in?
God, this is what people listen to.
I want, you know, sometimes I'm like,
I wonder why people hate these so much.
And then like,
And then it's just us whistling.
Yeah, cause we don't really get to listen to it
after we do it.
Oh no, we would never listen to these.
Sometimes I do to make sure you didn't say anything
so bad that I ask you like,
you got to erase yourself when you said that thing about everybody fucking
after they got the panacea going.
Would you love it if this episode came out
and I was muted and it was just your half
of the conversation?
That should be a special bonus.
That's funny, how crazy one of us sounds.
I'm just like-
Just blasting into song for no reason.
And based on nothing.
And just me whistling and then 20 minutes of silence
and then me whistling again. Sometimes I worry you're a ghost and I'm just talking to myself. I sometimes think that nothing. And just me whistling and then 20 minutes of silence and then me whistling again.
Sometimes I worry you're a ghost
and I'm just talking to myself.
I sometimes think that too, by the way,
that I am a ghost.
Yeah.
Because I haunt you when you sleep.
If you're a ghost, would you,
you would probably check in on loved ones.
Always.
Yeah.
Am I able to-
Would you do that daily?
Am I able to do anything to their lives
or I can only look?
You can only kind of look,
but you'd want to check, see what's going on.
Yeah, but that's kind of weird
that like when you don't want to get in their way,
you don't want to like spy on your like family.
Yeah, if they're ever-
What if you're like spying on your grandpa
and he starts jerking off?
Well, yeah, putting on a show for the ghost.
Yeah, whatever, you know what I mean?
Yeah, I mean-
Wait, do you think people-
That's what I call masturbating.
When you jerk off, you think you're doing it
to put on a show for a ghost?
Yeah, it's to entertain them a little bit.
It must be so boring being a ghost. So every time you masturbate, it's put on a show for a ghost? Yeah, it's to entertain them a little bit. It must be so boring being a ghost.
So every time you masturbate,
it's to make a ghost, entertaining ghost.
Yeah, and that's what I like about it.
I do it out of a service.
Do you like the movie ghost, Patrick Spaz?
I shall know what I feel this way.
But I did not shoot that deputy.
I don't know if it's right or wrong.
What's that?
Danny Elfman song.
Oh great.
From which thing?
From his solo record.
Really?
Yeah.
Get him on the podcast.
I would love it.
Get him on right now.
He was a big fan of the comedy bang bang TV show.
Really?
Yes.
He also was in a band.
Wasn't he in a band?
Oingo Boingo.
With my friend Warren.
One of my favorite Tim Burton songs was I think Jack's Lament from Nightmare Reforged.
Sing a little bit of it because I don't know it.
Jack, he, okay, let me set the scene.
Wait, wait, wait, I gotta-
Jack Skellington.
You gotta get into the first couple notes.
If I get into the first couple notes,
then I'll remember it.
Yeah, Jack Skellington.
He's a skeleton who, he's called the King of Halloween.
This is the beginning of it.
He wanders around and people say like, here comes the King of Halloween. People- This is the beginning of it. He wanders around and people say like,
here comes the king of Halloween himself, Jack Skellington.
Okay.
He goes into a tree or something.
Well, that's perfect.
He finds out what Christmas is
and he thinks Santa is cool.
There are few who deny,
at what I do I am the best,
for my talents are renowned far and wide.
I have the words in front of me. I'm cheating. When it comes to, you know that, wait, hold
up, the best part is the chorus. Go right to the chorus.
Okay. It's the same and I grow so weary of the sounds and screams and I, Jack, the pumpkin
king have grown so tired of the same old thing.
This is the best part?
This is it right here.
Okay.
Oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones an emptiness began to grow.
This is the best part?
There's something out there far from my home
A longing that I've never known
Do you think they're going to call me to do the next Nightmare Before Christmas?
I would love that if they made a sequel and it was starring you.
God, get Danny Elfman here and let's have a three, a throla-bolo.
Seriously, let Danny Elfman, if you're have a three, a Thrullabolo. Seriously, let Danny Elfman,
if you're out there, we wanna do it with you.
And by the way, Ben is not-
Danny, can you hear me?
Ben is not accepting roles any longer
that don't include me.
Oh, that's true.
As a secondary, I don't have to be the,
I don't have to be the co-lead necessarily.
Yeah, you can be one of the three kids.
I'm a Santa Claus.
I'm not gonna accept any roles.
Okay, what about Oogie Boogie Man?
Something bigger probably.
Oogie Boogie Man's a huge, Oogie Boogie Man's a huge.
He's got a solo, sure, so that's okay.
Okay, well you shouldn't do this.
I need a bigger, bigger part.
You know what I mean?
Bigger than the Jack Skellington
or you wanna be Jack Skellington?
I don't wanna be a co-lead necessarily
as much as I wanna be a lead.
Do you wanna be the director?
And maybe you could be the co-lead.
I could be the co-lead, I'll be Sally.
That'd be great, right?
Okay, that's fine. Yeah.
Anyway, Ben is only accepting parts that include me.
2025 resolutions, I love that you've incorporated me
in your 2025 resolutions. Oh my God, I love it.
And then, by the way, I can't get more.
The one thing I was like, you know the thing anymore of
is more Scott.
Scott, I call it sauce on my mast.
That's right.
You need a little more sauce.
On my mast.
We should hang out more.
How many times have we hung out this year together?
Let's really think about it.
I can think of...
I can think of three at least.
I can think of four at least.
What do you think we did in that fourth one?
We go swimming a lot.
We do, we do swim a lot.
We go swimming.
Sometimes Ben will call me up at three in the morning
and go like, let's just go to the ocean.
Just walk into the ocean.
Walk in the ocean. You told the the ocean. Let's go to the ocean. Walk in the ocean.
You told them to let's rock it.
Keep going.
Down the shore.
Do do do do do do.
They become water.
Do do do do do do.
They become water.
We're both miming guitars.
All right, we have to take a break,
but when we come back,
we're gonna do more of the solo Bola
and guess what? We have the Olympic. Already? All right, we have to take a break, but when we come back, we're going to do more of the solo BOLO.
And guess what?
We have the Olympic song challenge coming up in our third segment.
We're going to take a break.
We're going to come right back.
We'll have more of Ben Schwartz.
And nothing else.
That's it.
Just me.
Well, you're in it too.
Well, I'm here too.
This is what the solo BOLO is.
We're going to come right back.
This is it.
If you like it, stick around. If you don't like it. Turn it the hell off right away.
There are 15 solo bolo episodes.
Uh oh.
We'll be right back with more Comedy Bang Bang after this.
No, no, no.
Yeah.
No, no, no.
Yeah.
Comedy Bang Bang, we're back.
And guys, we have.
Terrible news.
Terrible news.
This is our eighth solo bolo.
First of all, this is why you can't trust.
You can't use AI.
You can't use AI because-
You shouldn't use AI.
AI, I called you AI instead of Ben.
Ben.
Ben, I wanna talk to you about the AI.
What does the AI say it is?
Well, let's not even call it AI.
It's chat GBT, which is obviously AI.
Okay.
All I did was ask it a question
because we wanna show how flawed it is.
That's how it starts.
To show how human needs.
Yes, we-
Well, you need humans because it's so flawed.
I wrote, how many solo bolos are there in comedy bang bang? I will say start off very strong there
This is not a bit. I'm reading off my screen
There are 15 solo bolos episodes of comedy bang bang where Ben Schwartz and Scott Ackerman improvises a duo without other guests
These fan favorite episodes often include chaotic tangents catching musical improvisations and absurd comedy bits. This is all true
Here's the full list of solo bolo episodes. Okay

Hey, for Christmas this year, the Hestruck's here.
What's a Hestruck?
Really?
Yeah, what is it?
Tell me about it.
You're going to find out something nerdy about me.
Oh my God.
My dad collected them, I guess.
We would get one every year.
Every Christmas they release a different toy Hestruck.
And we used to get them. Hey, it's F-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H I guess. H-E-S-S? Yeah, that's the gas. He went to the gas station a lot.
He would buy...
Interesting guy.
Interesting guy.
Just a gas station aficionado.
Just like how you and I go to the fucking ocean
at three in the morning, you know what I mean?
He just loves the gas.
Hey, wake up everyone!
Where are we going, Dad?
Wake up, we're going to the gas station again.
Dad, you don't even need gas, you have a full tank.
By the time we get there, we'll have room.
Jesus, Dad.
Oh man, but this is the time to be around family, is it not?
That's why you and I are hanging out.
Nobody in our family.
No one allowed.
Nobody allowed.
You know what I'm saying?
No girls allowed, there's no family allowed.
No family allowed.
I see your hand, you're about to count something.
I am at one, two, three.
I'm counting my fingers, that's right.
What was your favorite Sesame Street character?
Was it the Count?
You know, I never liked the Count because it's like, there's gotta be more to life.
Wow, he's the most Jewish one.
You think that's why you didn't like him?
You think the Count is the most Jewish one?
Of course. Kermit.
Uh, uh, uh.
Kermit.
Why is Kermit Jewish?
He's always worrying about stuff.
Oh, dude, Scott.
Scott, there's so much antisemitism world.
What are you doing?
I'm just saying. Say what, go. He's always worried about stuff. I'm there's so much antisemitism world. What are you doing? I'm just saying.
Say what, go.
He's always worried about stuff.
I'm worried about antisemitism in the world.
No.
And I'm trying to address it here.
Tell me why you think Kermit is Jewish.
Go, for real, tell me one thing.
He's God.
I'm telling you, you have a pet.
What is it about?
You have a road diverted by Yellowwood.
And you are about to pick the wrong pet.
Here's a question for you.
What do you think are the traits that Jewish people have?
No.
Great people, very kind and comforting.
Always looking out for people.
And is Kermit not all of that?
Holy shit, you're right, is Kermit?
It is Kermit.
Canonically Jewish?
Kermit should be canonically Jewish.
Is there anything you did in your Spider-Man comic that-
I guess the Miss Piggy of it all.
The fact that he's eating ham.
Ew, now we're just thinking about Kermit eating out
Miss Piggy.
Yeah, why not?
What's wrong with you?
Have you ever thought about that to this extent?
Not, no, now I'm thinking that are they actual slaps
on ham?
Stop it.
Kermit!
Stop it.
Stop it.
Stop it.
You ever meet Frank Oz?
No, I've always wanted to.
Get him on the program.
He also directed my favorite musical,
I think of all time, Little Shop of Horrors. Little Shop of Horrors, such a great movie.
And what about Bob and he was Fozzie Bear? I would love to.
You and I have been threatening to do the Little Shop of Horrors musical live on stage for many,
many years. Let's just do it.
You know, this is a real story. I got offered the dentist in a production of Little Shop of Horrors.
Didn't end up doing it. Couldn't figure out how to do it.
Couldn't figure out how to do it. Couldn't figure out how to do it
meaning you're a bad actor?
Yeah, I went on stage and they go,
and here comes somebody and I went in and I go.
Did you ever do plays?
Only one play.
Do you ever have dreams about suddenly you're in a play
and you don't know what you're doing?
No, but the one that I have is.
See, when you're an improviser
and you go out there without knowing what to do.
I go on with a script and I'm like, what do I do?
Yeah, you have backwards dreams. You're like, what do I do? Yeah, you have backwards streams.
How do I read this thing?
I can't believe we're almost done with the podcast.
Can you imagine Noah, unfortunately we still have
about 30 more minutes to go.
Do you still talk to anyone who you went to high school with
or do you big time them?
No, don't big time anybody.
High school I talked to, by the way, not as many.
I'll say like two or three.
You know as the years go by.
The years go by.
Those were just a few short precious years.
They were formative years certainly, but why do we play such important songs?
Why do we play such important songs?
I love this song by the way.
I do have a chain, this is a real story.
I was invited recently to be the-
You get invited to a lot of things.
Little Shop of Horrors, this.
I know, two things.
I was invited to be the commemorative speaker.
That's not it.
What's this called when you-
Commencement.
Commencement, commemorative speaker.
God.
We're now commemorating speakers.
It's just a coin of me.
Commencement speech.
And so, by the way, a lot of work,
more work than things gonna be,
cause you gotta write- That's the thing,
is like, it's always an honor to get these things.
Never, you just never do.
It was so much work and then like,
and I had no time to write it,
and I remember I was rewriting it while I was on tour.
I had a show the night before,
I took a plane that night,
woke up at six in the morning.
Anyway, one of the things I talked about.
Sound barrier.
I didn't break it.
So one of the things that I talked about was this,
is that the, when we graduated,
me and a group of seven people were on a chain
that said, I'm home.
A text chain.
An email chain that said, I'm home.
And we have continued the same chain since 2003.
Same email chain.
Wow.
20 plus years, same email chain.
Abe, Brett, Chris, hold up.
Abe, Brett, Chris.
Now you're just making up names.
Marlon Wayans. Is on this. Me're just making up names. Marlon Wayans is on this.
Me.
You graduated high school with Marlon Wayans.
I'm almost forgetting, no, I said Harlan, Harlan.
Harlan Wayans.
Harlan, if you're listening,
I don't know if you listen to the company Bang Bang.
I wonder, we'll never know.
Does Frank Goss?
Frank, if you're out there, we love you,
you do the voice of Yoda.
Yeah, oh my God, he did.
He created that whole like-
Call him, call him on the phone. Here we go. I wanna talk to Yoda. Ring, ring, ring, ring did. He created that whole, like, call him.
Call him on the phone.

You must leave.
I fucking forgot how to do this.
Oh, Jesus.
Jesus, okay, anyway, just leave a message.
Beep. Frank, hey, what's going on, man? It's Ben Schwartz. Jesus, okay, anyway, just leave a message.
Frank, hey, what's going on, man? It's Ben Schwartz.
Hey, man, it's Scott Augerman.
Oh, yeah, and we're both here.
We wanna leave a message.
You don't know me, but if you cast Ben in anything,
you gotta cast me in it.
Pending, pending, pending.
But you don't know me either, probably,
but we're huge fans.
Hey, man, we love you, buddy.
Why are you throwing two messages?
We're huge fans.
We just wanted to say we'd love to have you on the podcast.
It's Scott's podcast.
Sometimes it is called Solo Bolo.
Would love to have you.
You've directed some of our favorite movies.
We want to know about a lot of things.
You've had your hand up Miss Piggy
for centuries at this point.
Scott, don't.
What?
Was he Miss Piggy?
He was Miss Piggy.
Huh.

Okay. I'm sorry. We're ingy? He was Miss Piggy. Huh. Here, okay.

I'm going to do Miss Piggy and Yoda back to back.
You tell me who's who.
Okay, everybody, if you have socks on, take them off now because you're about to knock
them off.
Scott Aukerman, right?
Saucy Scotty is about to do both Miss Piggy and Yoda talking to each other at the same time.
This hasn't been done since Daffy and Bugs
talk to each other in a Looney Tunes cartoon.
I will count you in.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
What count are you gonna give me?
I'm gonna count like the cone.
Okay.
From what to what?
From 20.
20.
20 down to what?
Down to?
19.
Down to 19?
Okay, that's a good count.
18.
17. This is really giving me a lot of time to prepare, so I like that.
16.
15.
14.
Okay, just 13 more numbers to go.
Okay.
15.
12.
Alejo. Alejo? 15. 12. Oreo.
Aweo?
10.
I'm sorry, Count, I hate to interrupt.
Did you just say aweo?
Nine.
What, after 10 and before 12 is oreo.
All right, Count, I'm not disputing.
I mean, you're the expert on numbers.
Sligar.
Wait, I got interrupted.
Did you just say Stiger like Rod Stiger?
Sligar.
Slider like sliders?
Six and eight is sliver.
Five.
Sligar?
Floor.
I know that's not right.
Trees. Floor and trees? Now okay, I know that's not right. Trees.
Floor and trees?
Now you're just usual suspecting the room?
Wad?
Ah, ah, ah.
Zero.
Oh, I didn't know you were going all the way to zero.
Are you doing negative numbers at all?
Negative one.
This is more time than I needed to prepare.
Now I feel like you've iced me a little bit.
Go, go.
Kermit, Kermit, green you are, just like me.
Hello, Kermie, hello, Kermie.
You are green, green you are.
Muppet show, you run.
I am a ghost.
You've been doing this by yourself the whole time.
I haven't gotten to the Miss Piggy part yet.
You just did Piggy.
No, I didn't.
I've been doing Yoda the whole time.
You have not, you talked to Piggy.
Rewind the tape, someone rewind the tape.
You absolutely did Piggy.
That Kermie, no, the Kermie part, that was Yoda.
That was a 100% Yoda.
No, you play the tape back.
Okay, you're gonna.
Kermie. Hello K're gonna look Kermie hello
Kermie Kermie you are no that sounds like fucking you don't know Calrissian I
know he does buddy of mine he is is he is that cannon he gets me in places I
don't think that's true you can get me into any bar in the Yoda I don't think
any of Star Wars is Yoda explaining that Boba Fett can get him into different bars. I sit on someone's shoulders and we
put trench coat around us. That sounds like a Kermit thing. Everyone thinks... a Kermit
thing. Yeah, he did that once. Keep going. Everyone thinks that I am big big man. No,
but you're a little Kermit. Lando Calharisian. Cool. He really is. And he gets
you in places, right? Gets me in places he does.
Isn't that fun to think about Yoda, like, bragging about his good friend Lando?
Who gets him into places? You didn't even specify what it is. Like, an SAO Schwartz
or like a bar. Like bars, I guess. Like, who's turning Yoda down to bars? I guess, you gotta
ask Cam. You gotta ask Yoda.
I mean, Mr. E.
Yoda, Yoda, Yoda, where does Boba Fett?
He hasn't even let Miss Piggy have a word in edgewise.
Yoda, where does Boba Fett get you into?
Mm, me like to go to Cantina.
Me like to go to Cantina?
How me sound like, Meesa sound like.
No, don't do that in Star Wars, Gargantuan.
You could've done that.
Meesa sound like Jar Jar now. No, no, you can't do that. We can't do Jar Jar now? No, of'm sorry. No, don't do that, it's our worst character. You could have done that. You used to sound like Jar Jar now.
No, no, you can't do that.
We can't do Jar Jar now?
No, of course not.
Why?
It's 2025, grow up, dude.
So Jar Jar is off limits to us?
I think so.
Now aliens are off limits to us?
Can I even be doing Yoda?
Yeah, you could do Yoda.
Why?
I don't want to anymore.
I can't wait for another break.
Can you imagine taking another
break right now? How awesome that would be. Do you think this would be one of the
best? Do you think this is top five? I think this is definitely top eight. We have to, now
okay, we always thread that it might be the last one, right? Yeah, and people
sometimes would like to take us up on that. Of course, the people hate this, but
also you have like a thousand, you have 51 episodes, 52 episodes a year, more?
No, we're almost 900.
This is episode 896, I believe.
Wow, can you imagine?
Do you have a, when you hit a thousand,
do you think you'll stop or no?
Yeah, of course, before then.
Really?
Yeah, I'm stopping in the middle of this one.
No, we're gonna take a break.
What are you gonna do for your thousand?
Have you thought about it before you take a break?
I haven't even thought about it.
You gotta do something huge.
Let's go to the Wizard of Oz.
Let's go to Dave and Busters.
Oh God, I would love that.
You're doing a bit, I would love that.
Let's go to Dave and Busters right after this.
Do you want to?
Yes.
Okay, great.
Okay, all right, we're gonna take a break
where you'll hear words from our sponsors
like Dave and Busters.
They're not, I'm just not sure.
Happy Honda days.
We're gonna hear all of the commercials.
When we come back, we're gonna have the Olympic.
Oh my God.
Song challenge Christmas style.
This is very exciting.
We're gonna be right back with more
solo bolo ho ho holo after this.
Bop a da ba da.
Bop a da ba da.
Bop a da ba da.
Bop a da ba da.
Bop a da ba da.
Bop a da ba da.
Bop a da ba da.
Comedy bang bang, solo bolo ho ho, ho, ho, ro.
Is that what he sounds like?
I've never heard it before.
You've never heard Santa Claus before?
No, is that what he sounds like?
Okay, let me do like what we call in the business,
an audio lineup.
Oh, what's that?
Okay, so this is, you know how when someone assaults you,
you go to the police station.
You shouldn't say anything, right?
Don't say assaults me, but yeah, I understand.
You know, when you've been assaulted, like at least-
No, not something we should joke about, but I think-
78 times in your life.
No, literally not something we should-
You've gone down to the police station this many times.
Okay, and you have a lineup of people.
So what's an audio lineup?
An audio lineup, I'm gonna give you five different people,
one of them is Santa Claus.
Oh, I love this game.
Come on, Scott, let's go.
And this is before we-
This is not the game.
This is not the Olympic Song Challenge.
No, no, no. And this is before we, this is not the game. This is not the Olympic song.
No, no, no.
And this is how like,
you basically, someone broke into your house last night.
I get it.
And you heard who it was.
They left presents and I have to know who the hell it was.
Okay, I'm now, okay, I'm closing my eyes.
Five, five is a lot, do three.
All right, number one.
Five?
Number one.
Come up to the mic and talk into it.
Hey, I'm gonna leave these presents over here for you.
That's not him. I don't think that's him. All right, number one, step back. Number two.
So they're not even saying, oh, they're saying the sentence they said when they dropped the presents.
Yeah. Okay. All right. Number two, step forward.
Hello. Have you ever, do you wish to buy some encyclopedias from me?
That's probably him.
I have a-
Can I ask a question to number two?
Yeah, go ahead, ask a question, yeah.
Can you say ho, ho, ho?
Ho, ho, ho.
Okay, nevermind.
I thought maybe that his ho, ho, ho would be perfect.
Okay, not him.
Excuse me, Steve Martin.
All right, bye.
Bye, see ya.
Okay, yeah, he can go, yeah.
Okay, so there's three left.
Oh wait, no, he's a criminal.
No, no, stop him before you- You don't know if he's a criminal, you don't think he's a criminal, he's just a criminal. Oh, he was go. Yeah, there's three left. Oh wait, no, he's a criminal. No, no, stop him before you.
You don't know if he's a criminal.
You don't think he's a criminal.
He's just a criminal.
Oh, he was, no, we took him out of a jail cell
to put him in this audio lab.
Oh my God.
I totally forgot.
Anyway, he's gone now.
Three more.
All right, number three step forward.
Can you just say ho, ho, ho, ho, number three?
Hi.
Well, say ho, ho, ho, maybe.
I'm trying, hi.
What are you trying?
Just say ho, ho, ho, ho. I'm trying, sir. Hi. Hi. Just say ho ho ho. I'm trying sir. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Is that it? Oh no. Ho
ho ho. Say ho. My mouth doesn't do that sir. Now police officer I can't tell if this is
him avoiding to do it because he is the assailant so is it possible for you to- This is the
problem with audio lineups is they, quite honestly, they can do any voice they want
and there's nothing legally stopping them.
Oh, so I can't ever really find out who it was.
Number four, step forward.
Let's hear his ho ho ho.
Can't believe we're doing five, it's way too many.
Hello, pardon me.
Oh, what a pipop here, what are you?
Sir, can you say ho ho ho?
Can I say what now?
Ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho. It wasn't him, that felt disgusting. I never what now? Ho ho ho? Ho ho ho.
Who wasn't him?
That felt disgusting.
I never want to hear that again.
It wasn't him.
All right, number four, you can go.
Okay, so three-
Oh wait, no, he's a criminal too.
Ow.
So three didn't say ho ho ho.
So three, can you just say ho ho ho?
Hi.
Number five.
Her.
This is number five?
No, I thought you said two.
No, five.
Oh, and I'm gone, by the way.
Yes, yeah.
I came back just for this.
My eyes are closed.
All right, number five, step forward.
Here we go.
Oh, step forward, you say?
Scott, Scott, Scott, Scott, Scott.
Step forward.
Scott, this could be him, this could be him.
Sir, sir.
On Dasher, on Prancer.
Oh my God.
Rudolph, everyone else.
Can you say, sir, can you say?
I'm going to say everyone's name. Sir, sir. On Dasher, on Prancer. Oh my God.
Rudolph, everyone else.
Can you say, sir, can you say-
I'm not gonna say everyone's name.
Can you say ho, ho, ho, sir?
Morph.
It was three.
Lock him up.
For life.
Lock him up for life.
For life.
Okay, you tell everybody what this Olympic song challenges. All right. And then this is it for the, this is our, probably away. Fly away. Fly away. Okay, tell everybody what this Olympic song challenge is.
All right, now.
And this is it for the,
this is our, probably our last solo bolo.
Well, I mean, we got-
Unless another Sonic one.
Unless we get to the, what was the diamond jubilee?
We gotta get to the diamond jubilee.
That's when we retire it, right?
Yes.
So we need two more.
At 10 we retire.
So you need two more solo movies.
I also, we all, two more Sonic movies, solos.
His name isn't solo.
Can you, would it be too hard to convince them
to change his name to Solo Bolo?
No, it's based off a comment,
it's based off a video game from 1981.
Solo Bolo the Hedgehog?
No, it's not gonna make sense.
All right, here we go, ready?
The Olympic Song Challenge, what this is is,
Ben and I love to sing obviously,
and we do this,
that's right, that's the snowman,
we'll be hearing more from him during our best ofs.
But we do, what we do is we start off singing a song
and then that leads us somehow either through a lyric
or through a melody or even just
through our own demented brains.
Wow.
It leads us to another song,
which then leads us to another song, which then leads us to another song,
which leads us to another song.
And we're gonna keep it going.
All made up on the spot, nothing thought of before.
All made up on the spot.
The longest I feel we've done it
has been 12 minutes or so.
That's amazing.
But it's almost based off of like,
there's this improv exercise where you sing a song,
another person gets your back.
But usually you do that with like six people.
But this is just two people going back and forth.
It's just two people going back and forth.
How about this? Has Solo Bolo ever been on the top?
How many you count down?
10 or 20?
Uh, we, we, you know, it changes every year depending on how many votes there are.
But, uh, we, uh, SoloBolo has, I believe, won very early on.
Okay.
So if we ever get number one, we'll retire SoloBolo.
Sure.
So that makes people who hate, people who hate SoloBolo would have to.
This one is not eligible for this year,
but next year's voting.
If you want this to stop,
you have to get this to number one.
It's number one.
All right, but before that,
we have an Olympic song challenge to do,
and this is going to be special Christmas themed.
As often as we can,
I would love to return to holiday music.
Ben is blowing his nose in preparation.
Yeah, I just have a lot of-
Getting everything out.
Stuffed up a little bit.
Yeah, of course. We want a clear, clear nose for this. We want to return to holiday songs
as much as possible.
Do we? We never planned this.
As much as possible. We'll just see.
As much as possible?
This is a solo-bolo-ho-ho-ho-lo.
I guess. I don't know.
So we're going to see. I'm going to start it off with a Christmas song.
We're allowed to use Christmas songs.
Or Hanukkah songs.
We are allowed to use these songs.
Here we go.
This is the Solo Bolo Ho Ho Ho Lo Olympic Song Challenge.
I'm gonna record from my phone as well.
All right, here we go.
Chestnuts
Roasting on an open fire.
Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
Although it's been said many times, many ways.

I met him once, did a movie with him, he was great.
Was he awesome?
I only shook his hand, I sent a letter to him in the hallway,
but I get to like spend some time, which would be great.
And same way, it'll be good to see Jim again
and all those guys.
James is in it, everybody's in it it's
really good it's and if you like the video games you were rewarded and it's like cool
and it like it's the biggest it's by far the biggest one we've made it is so action-packed
that and then if you go Ben Schwartz and Friends is on tour starting in January you can go

What do you wanna plug before we get into the part
where we say we care about each other?
I mean, we'd have to close out the plug,
all that kind of stuff.
You don't wanna plug your thing?
I wanna plug myself, yeah.
I mean, head over to CBB worlds and, you know,
it's too late for last minute merch problem.
Or maybe it's not, who knows, but get a subscription.

There's this book changed my life.
There's the Batman show.
There's College Town.
I was just on an episode of College Town
where I played Jan's wife or husband rather.
And it's a very funny episode.
And a very special episode.
And there's so much good stuff over there.
All right, let's for the last time this year.
This will be the only time I've heard this.
This is what we did last year.
Before we do a new one, let's close up the old plug bag.
I'm gonna be on the clock, babe
All right, well, but- Wait, was that us?
I think, you know, honestly,
we've had so many layers to it in the year
since we've done it that-
I don't know any of that in the last one?
I have no idea, but that was Don Deistan Las Balzas
by Randy Smith.
Thanks so much to Randy Smith.
Sorry, we couldn't get one
that featured you a little more prominently.
Because they've all featured you this entire year
and somehow this one came up.
Are you doing real?
I'm doing real, yes, of course.
Oh God, I got a few jeans.
You gotta send me one of your ones.
What's his name?
Oh, that was a great one.
Those are such good ones.
Ben, I wanna thank you so much.
What a great, I wish, it's so fun.
We love these so much.
We care about each other.
It's the end of the year,
so let's say we're thankful for.
Yes. I'm thankful. I'm very happy that our friendship survives. I'm very happy for the show because it makes us, it forces us to hang out.
It forces us to hang out. Although we have swum together in the ocean. We have swum a bunch of times this year.
A bunch of times, yes. Yeah, yeah. We get to hang out, but this is us doing, we get to be our full and total selves.
That's right. Ben, I love you. Thank you, I love you. Have a great 2025.
Yes.
We'll see you for the first episode back next year.
I will close that plug bag.
Yes. I will not open it.
This year you have to.
I will 100% close that plug bag.
And if you vote this episode number one,
we'll never do another one.
By the way, that's what it is.
If you can get the solo bullet to number one.
But I'll tell you this,
if we land anywhere between two through five,
we're making it even longer for the next one.
That's right.
So this is how you gotta bet hard. And there's nothing much left to say other than, See this, if we land anywhere between two through five, we're making it even longer for the next one. That's right.
So this is how you gotta bet hard.
And there's nothing much left to say other than,
aww.
Bang, bang into your mouth.
You know you wanna.
Bang, bang into your mouth.
You know you gotta.
Everybody wants to listen to Scott.
