Hey everyone, Scott Ackerman here, and welcome to another bonus bang, where we are re-releasing great episodes of comedy bang, bang, bang out from behind the paywall. Now, this week's bonus bang, we are in the middle of a series that we've been enjoying very much called Swiss you were here. Of course, that implies the swish move is one of the greatest moves in basketball. And it implies that we are showcasing NBA All-Star and sportscaster Bill Walton, of course. Now, Bill is played on Comedy Bang Bang by CBB All-Star Dan Lippert, and this episode is titled Mannequin Skywalker. It stars Alison Williams from Girls. She was a delightful guest.

She entered the one-timer club, I believe, and perhaps she'll be in the two-timer club someday. We don't know. We have Dan Lippert as Bill Walton, promoting another book. And then finally, Aaron Keefe as full-time mannequin, Macy Hannigan. This was originally released on January 8th, 2023 as episode 790. And yes, comedy bang, bang, we're still on the road.

But until then, enjoy this bonus bang. Comey Banc bye Comey Banc bye Comey Bac Bac Bain Comey Bac Bac Bac Bac Bac Bac It's Feast or Famin until I get my Easter ham in. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang. A little early for that.

It's only Janney, Danny. Thank you to Steve it to Beaver for that wonderful cashphrase submission, Steve it to Beaver. And welcome to Comedy Bang Bang for another edition. Back in the studio, we were in the backyard era last week, where we are back in studio and stars, stars are back on the show. What a week to listen to Comedy Bang. If this is your first week, welcome back and also goodbye forever to those of you who are turning

it off in the middle of the show. Glad to have you, but we have an exceptional show this week. Coming up a little later, we have a broadcaster. We also have someone who works for Macy's. Oh, that's interesting. Okay, yeah, Macy's, of course, had the big, Thanksgiving Day parade and they had the Miracle on 34th Street in the last couple of months, but we'll see what's going on.

It may see is this month. But before we get to them, I'm very excited. First time guest on the show, let's run through her credit. She did, I'm going to guess, seven seasons of girls, eight? Six. The contractual six. The contractual six. And then she was out.

And then we were all unanimously out. She was in the movie, speaking of out, she was in the movie Get Out. Which is what she did with girls. That's so true. And she also played that precocious little boy who flew around the stage, sprinkling fairy dust on children, an eternal being hundreds and hundreds of years old. Peter Pan in the musical Peter Pan on the National Broadcasting Company, approximately, I want to say, seven years ago. Probably. Somewhere around there.

The date's not etched in your mind? No, actually, I think it's been eight. I think it maybe has been eight years. Eight years, really? I don't know. I'm going to have to check this math. You're probably right. We'll figure it out.

You're much better with that. If you knew the year, I could check the math for you. It's true, which I don't know. I have none of the data you need. Okay, thank you. We'll figure this out later. We'll get a spreadsheet going. Yeah, yeah, thank God.

Her new film is in theaters now. It's fantastic. I just saw it. M. Thregan is the name. Yep, Enthrigan. Thank you for saying it right. Everyone's been calling it Megan. It's very weird.

Yeah, okay. You're an M. Thregan Truther. Alison Williams is here. Welcome to the show. I feel like I won a contest. I'm so happy to be here. You did win a contest, by the way. I don't know if your people told you about that.

You were not going to be on the show. Oh, my God. They did a whole thing with my ego or they told me I was allowed to come on my own volition. We have a celebrity contest every year, which celebrity gets. I think I'm really lucky. John Hamm,

Ham, Tateana Mislani. Last time John Hamm was here, I'm just at home listening to this podcast and I was invoked by Lily. Really? What did she say? Her character is a show that she was coming up with. I don't know what you mean.

I'm sorry. She was talking about a show she was pitching where it was just a scene, I was just in like folding clothes or so. I can't even remember the details of it, but I was just folding clothes, I think, at home. It's weird to be listening to a podcast and then hear your own name. I heard my own name.

It was an absolute out of body experience. And you did not appear until, or do you say your name once and you appear three months later? Usually, I was busy. I just had too much else going on. Okay, I understand. Yeah, there was a slight lag. How was that laundry, by the way?

I'm still in progress. It was a long, slow roll. I just abandoned it. I was like, I can't touch these clothes anymore. Closed just all over the floor. or I assume you live in a house and apartment. I don't know. We'll get to that.

I live in a nest, Scott. Oh, do you? Interesting. Up in a tree. Yeah. Is that in the big Rockefeller setter Christmas tree? Exactly. I couldn't believe the big move I just had from New Hampshire to New York City.

But yeah, I'm a huge fan. I've been listening for so long. That is so nice to hear. I had heard that a few years back somehow. Yeah. I don't remember whether we were talking about you being on the show years back or. Yes, I was trying to come. And then during a, I think it was a best of when you and Paul are like delirious.

One of you was talking about how annoying it is when people reach out and their publicists are like, they're such big fans. They want to be on the show. And then they cancel. And I was just listening to that being like, hey, never, ever do this, ever. The only bad part about it is when the publicist reaches out and says they're a big fan and they're lying. And then they go, they don't have time to do the show. And then you find out later like they had never even brought it up to the person.

No, this is a, I'm a huge fan. Fantastic. Well, welcome to the show. Thank you. Thank you so much. It's incredible to have you. Your resume or CV, as they say, in Great Britain, the jolly old England. You ever been there?

I have been there. Really? What you do? It's not jolly. I haven't found it to be overly jolly. Do you check out the big palace there? That's where King Charles lives. Oh, yes.

I haven't said King Charles. You haven't said it. In a non-dog context in a long time. A Cavalier King. I wonder if he'll ever be cavalier about anything. Yeah, I wonder. Call him a Cavalier King Charles. The Cavalier King.

That should be his nickname. You heard it here for it. Honestly, I think that's kind of good. I mean, he doesn't have that much to do. There's like, you know, the Mad King George and King Richard, the hunchback, you know, like all, everyone has their all, their particulars. But the Cavalier King, that just sounds so nice. The Cavalier King is great.

Plus, I don't know if he honestly expected this to happen. I kind of think his mom was just rocking on for so long. I know. And he's an elder gentleman himself. And so he could have passed on at any point, God forbid. And you have, honestly, the horrible truth. and you love this, you love death so much. Of course.

Any of us could at any moment. That is true. It's a, uh, we're all in a race to death and we all want to come in last. Yep. And many people have died in this studio. It feels kind of. That's true. I believe Todd died here once and came back to life.

It's hard. Yeah. The happiest story of all time. My nephew. Um, but, uh, now let's talk about, uh, why talk about the past? Why talk about Peter Pan? Uh, even though I'm fascinated with it. You just smiled irrepressively.

We, let's talk about it. about it. Let's do it. Okay. Well, Sarah Silverman had people over at her house to watch it. We were all very excited. I did not know that. We were all very excited. That is a horror. You cannot imagine. I just started sweating. I am back in time out of my body having a nervous breakdown. Was it what? Okay. Yes. The, the production of it was, maybe didn't come out all that well. But, uh, uh, your performance, a flawless accent, wonderful singing, just, uh, an incredible performance. What was it like to do something like that on live television? It just seems like, it must have been fun, right? I don't know. It was fun. It was terrifying.

Like from the very beginning, because I flew in through the window, you know. So if that messes up. Now, is that your choice or was that in the script? Yeah, that's a canonical entrance for Peter. Unfortunately, that's true. Because I was watching it, I was like, what the fuck is going on here? People can't fly. I made a radical choice for Peter Pan to make him fly.

But I had nightmares leading up. to the show of like coming in backwards or something. Like if you bounced off, I was against curtains holding on to them before I came in through the window. And if I like twisted weirdly, I would just slowly like rotate through the window. And that's it. It's so funny to what? Your very first entrance to you just creak in.

Creak, or reich, hurry, hurry. Slowly kind of dangling spinning around. The grip that was responsible for it is off that day. It's just the weirdest thing was like opening and closing night being the same exact event. That's such a weird feeling. Although that's the, you know, I used to do plays back in the day. Well aware. And sometimes do hundreds and hundreds of performances of them.

And you mentally are over it by probably the second one. Okay. So I think this is the best way to do it. One and done. Yeah, I guess so. It just felt like all that preparation. You just had it. Like I had it memorized for like months afterwards and I didn't need to.

Yeah, because we had practiced. What was your first line? It was. Were you crowing like a? Well, months. I said months afterwards, luckily. I didn't crow as I entered because they're all sleeping. Oh, right.

I'm looking for my shadow. I'm looking for my shadow as you first. No, no, that's the subtext. That's what I was playing. That was the action I was playing. Sometimes actors get those confused and they say the subtext and the lines are inside. Exactly. But no, it was like a.

Scared. Scared, hungry. Exactly. I want to go back and redo it now. Scared, scared, hungry. I don't know if Peter was hungry. I should go back and play the whole thing. It's weird that more characters and roles, characters in roles or roles in

are not hungry all the time. Brad Pitt plays only hungry. people. That's true. Interesting. Isn't that true? He's one of the only hungry actors. When it begins, and they're sated by the time the scene is over. Yeah. I once had to eat something in a scene. And I was like, oh, they put down an apple pie in front of me. And I was like, oh, yeah, I'll eat apple pie during the scene. The full pie. No, nothing. Well, it was just a slice. Okay. And so I ate probably like three bites. And then we had to do 58 takes or something with all the different angles. They came up to me afterwards and said you ate two and a half full pies by the end

of it. Did anyone offer you a spit bucket? No, they didn't. It was a low budget production. They couldn't afford that. They had puke buckets, but. That's just a toilet. Things got really bad. Oh, yeah. It was. Did they call it a puke bucket and they showed you the back? Either end. Whatever comes out. That's a lot of food. So Peter Pan, I mean, I thought you were fantastic. Thank you so much. I had the time of my life. It was terrifying. I mean, I've never been. Would you do it Again, would you go on Broadway or do anything like that? In a heartbeat. Have you done a Broadway show?

I have not done Broadway. Off Broadway? I have not done off Broadway. Did you used to do theater as a child? I did. Well, yeah, I did like theater camp. Can't you tell? Can't you just feel that?

You have that energy. Yeah, exactly. You have the Anne Hathaway theater camp kind of. Thank you so much. I'm honored. It's a, it's a badge we wear with honor. Yeah. I didn't go to any prestigious ones.

I went to like local ones where the counselors were barely qualified. Local to me? Local to me. Not to me. No. Well, no, yeah. Very, very unlocal. to you.

It would have been a big commute. But yeah, that was my experience. Fantastic. Well, I would like to see another one of these, maybe Peter Pan Too. I'd like to see you in it with me. Yeah, I would love to do that. You can't be watching it with Sarah Silverman. In fact, I'm going to cast Sarah Silverman in the next one so that she has to be part of it.

I'd like to be Tinkerbell. Sarah can be, you know, one of the kids. Smee. Oh, she'd make a great Smee. She'd make a great Sme. She has the same first letter in her first name. So true, it's cast itself. So people just go and she automatically like turns her head and.

And he goes, are you talking to me? Exactly. It's perfect. Well, let's talk about the movie M3 again. I saw this the other night and it is a fantastic film. I really, really enjoyed it. We, first of all, for two months or so, the trailer has been out. And every time I see it in a theater, people are laughing and like applauding and so

psyched to see it. And so I was so pumped for this. And the last time I saw the trailer in front of Glass Onion, I was with Kulup, and she's just hiding your eyes the entire time going, no. And I'm laughing. I'm applauding. And she's like, you're never going to get me to see it. So I went with a couple of friends.

And it's fantastic. And hopefully you'll take this in the spirit in which it's intended. I'll take it in whatever spirit. It reminds me a little of Robocop in a way of like you go into Robocop thinking it's just going to be an action film. And then it's very satirical. It has a lot of humor. This is a very funny movie. Yeah.

And afterwards, I was like, you know, Kulap, it really wasn't that scary. It's a PG-13, actually, which I didn't even know. So I think it was more like an action movie in a way with a lot of humor. Yeah, I can't handle scary movies. I really can't. And yet you've been in two. I know. Are you America's new scream queen?

I haven't screamed in any of them. You haven't? I've yet to, I have a terrible scream. Let's hear a little bit. Wait, was that it? Or is that clearing your threat to do it? No, no, that was it. Oh, no.

That was as best as I can do. No, I am so bad. I checked, to this day, like on a baseline, I'm checking under beds. I'm looking behind curtains. I am coming up very carefully from putting water on my face at the sink and turning around to see if anyone's behind. Yeah. Are you poking mirrors to make sure that it's not a portal into another dimension? Now I'm going to start doing that.

Thank you so much. My bedtime routine is got a lot longer. So I don't have a stomach for that. I really don't think it is. I think it delivers for horror fans because it like, you know, fulfills the obligations to the genre. Exactly. And there are there are creepy things that happen in it. Exactly. But there was like, there's cheering and laughter and.

It's very audaciously done. Like there are there are just things in it that you go, oh my God, what a great show. Because there's a very, I can only imagine there's a very just basic template version of this. Like, you know, a talking Tina kind of thing from the Twilight Zone where it's just like by the numbers a little bit. And this just takes so many chances and does so many weird things in it. Yeah, it breaks a few like card. Everyone's rooting for her for most of the movie, for Megan.

Sorry, I'm three again. Right. And she does a few things that are canonically unforgivable, but people are cheering for them in the theater. And that is sort of an unusual experience to have. I think it's really fun. How did you get involved in this movie? Because was it because of your experience in Get Out?

Yeah. Jason Blum, who is the Blum of Blumhouse. Who's the house? Was that the house from TV? He took it down. He took down the house. Oh, yeah, yeah, you're right. Exactly. That doctor? Yeah, exactly. It's Dr. House. It's a collab. So it's a very strange collab where one guy makes horror movies and the other guy solves medical issues?

A recovering drug addict, I think, and doing an American accent. Yeah, so he reached out and was like, I think. Hugh Lorry was his name. Isn't that weird to have like, he has a guy's name, he has a girl's name? It's like, what's going on? It's versatility is what's going on. That's true. Yeah.

He can do it all. Yeah. Phone book or otherwise in terms of how his name appears. So, yeah, he reached out. I read it. I want to do it. Hey, Lori, because they think they see it as Lori, comma, Hugh. And then they're surprised.

Am I getting in the way of your story? No, I'm going to abandon it. Oh, no. I want to hear this. So Jason Blum reaches out to you. Reached out. It's not a very interesting one. I immediately wanted to do it because I'll be the judge of that.

Okay, great. Please tell me. Okay. Don't leave me hanging. Get out with such a good experience to put it very, lightly, sort of a perfect movie experience. So I was very inclined to do it already. And then I read the script and I thought it was super fun.

And I met Gerard, who was the director, and I liked him and thought, let's do this. Did you think it was interesting? I'm going to give it a three. As it should get. I mean, as celebrity stories go, it's not the worst thing. I don't want to say, but this is a real win-win, because either I was going to tell an unintentionally interesting story or I was going to be right about telling a boring one. So I'm going to put this as a double-U.

Not the worst. I'm keeping score over here. Okay, good. That's my first way. Look at all those ws. Wow. You haven't been rating me either. I'm the only judge.

Well, it's really good. And I was looking at the cast list and there were, are there three people playing M3 again or? The movie's out so I can talk about it now. It's achieved in a bunch of different ways. There's a girl who performed her who did the dance that has become like. Iconic. Iconic. It's amazing.

I wish I could do even a moment of it, but I cannot. I'm sort of swaying side to side kind of doing you. You're doing, whoa, you just did the flip. Didn't expect you to be able to do that part. That's the one part I do really well. Exactly. The swaying is very hard for me. The swaying is hard.

The sashet. Just pretend there's wind on me. Exactly. You look gorgeous. And so I think there's a few different ways. So there's Amy who performed her beautifully. But then occasionally it was an animatronic doll. And so there would be two people with like what looked like video game controllers who were operating her.

Are you sure they weren't just playing video games and just pretending? the timing of that would have been amazing would have been a great choice to go to a film set where you have to be quiet and play video games under very high stakes. They're big to play video games. And then there was a guy at like an audio switchboard playing her lines and trying to time it out.

Then there was a puppeteer operating her body and a grip who was moving her like laterally in front to back. So that was sometimes the way she was achieved. And then other times she was just like a static doll that later they CGIed to talk. And then sometimes it was just like an XX. on a mat box that I would be talking to. Do you like doing that?

Was this your first experience with that? Because I can't imagine there was that much of that in girls. There wasn't a lot of other girls. Sometimes Laina Dunham was just an ex. Oh, no, she's always there. Sometimes she was directing me while we were doing the scene together. That was unusual in a different way. But, no, I did that.

I was on the last season of a series of unfortunate events, the Lemony Snicket series. And because of the way that's shot. With our friend Neil Patrick Harris. Yes. Oh, another fan of the show. That's right. Because of the way it was shot and because of the kid hours,

often it was like x's, three Xs on a map box of a camera, which was a wild experience, but it prepared me for this one. Yeah. I can only imagine it's hard because human heads are not shaped like X's. No, they're not. In your mind, you have to translate it and you have to be like, huh, X equals head. Yeah. What's happened now is that when I walk through the world, I'm expecting to see X's in different

colors and I see human heads and they're horrifying. They're amorphous. They're shaped weirdly. Everyone looks like cut tips walking around. This is a good, a whole thing. core film, call up Jason Blum, do the reverse. I'll call him. I'll call him.

I'll call him. I have a great idea. I'm calling you and I'm doing the reverse. Could you? Could you please do this and tape it? And just as a practical joke. Honestly, I'm seeing him tonight. I'm going to film it.

Just film and be like, I got a great idea. I got a great idea. Imagine a world where you think humans are supposed. How do we set up the premise? This is hard. This is your bread and butter, not mine. All right. Well, we'll work out a three-act structure for this.

Let's do it right now. Okay. Act one. Yeah. The inciting incident. Of course. Save the cat pretty early. Yes.

You save a cat. Oh, literally. The titular saved the cat. You save a cat that has an ex for a head? Let's, yeah. Or X is for eyes. Maybe it's dead. Yes.

Yeah, it's dead. Exactly. Yes. And you bring it back to life. Yeah. And so you always imagine that the, oh, man, I'm losing it. It was so good. It was so good for a second.

Why? How could we abandon it? Should we get more people? Let's put this back in the drawer. Okay, fine. We'll take it. We'll dust it off like the Woody Allen drawer of concept. May he rest in reputational.

Are you glad you never did a Woody? Because like maybe about seven years... You want to rephrase the question? Okay, never mind. Strike that. The answer to that one is different. You do have a child. Yeah, probably.

Because like seven years ago, like it probably wouldn't have been okay. I don't know. Anyway, we have to bring up there. No, let's stay here. Fertile ground. Let's stay in this lovely area for a while. Yeah, yeah. Well, M. Thregan is out right now.

It is. Do you think movies should be mandatory to go see? I don't. I'm not going to go on the record saying that. I think it can be, well, in the last couple of years. That's like something out of Communist Russia. Yeah, it's so true. And yet appealing. No, I think movies are fun, movies like this are fun to see in an audience full of other people, full of strangers, breathing droplets on each other, just eating food. You want to hear people laughing and applauding and screaming. Yeah, it was so fun at the premiere. It was a blast. Oh, I can only imagine. It's a very fun movie to see. Check it out. It's in theaters now. We're going to take a break. When we come back, we come back, we have a broadcaster. That's exciting.

Now, Allison, I need you here. Okay, I'm going to stay. Okay, you are going to stay. Yeah, yeah, I decided to stay. Just right now? Yeah, just, you said I need you. That's my trigger. I said, and now I'm here.

I need you here because we have, honestly, the quality of guests goes downhill after the A block, usually. So I need you here to add a little star watchage. Stars are back. Allison Williams is here. We're going to be right back with a broadcaster and someone who works for Macy's.

We'll be right back with more comedy. Bang, back after this. Comedy Bang Bang. We're back. Allison Williams is here. M. Thrigan is in theaters now. Could any of the other letters be changed to numbers? I think an A can be a four sometimes. Yeah. M3G foreign. Yeah. Foreign though. Foreign markets. Foreign markets. We love it. That's true.

What about an M could be an upside down? W. Or it could be a three on its side. That's true. Yeah. Three? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I'm seeing it. You're flashing gang signs. It just got very dangerous in this studio. What are you trying to tell me? It's in theaters now.

Everyone should go see it. It's a fantastic time at the movies. The cinema, as I like to call it. Well, I love letters to the cinema that came out last year. So true. You're in a tuxedo. This is who you are. That's true.

Speaking of the tuxedo, starring Jackie Chan, here's someone who maybe has met Jackie Chan. We'll find out when we talk to him. No pressure. You don't have to have, but we'd love to hear it if you have. Because he's a celebrity himself. Stars are back. He is a basketball legend.

He played for, I want to say, the Celtics. Is that true? Yes, sir, Bill Walton in the house. Bill Walton is in the house. And I did not be to introduce myself that way, but I called you Bill instead of Scott and then finish the sentence that I invented in that moment Bill Walton in the house. I love to hear the process. Yes.

A peek behind the curtain. A little peak behind the curtain. It's so happy to be in the studio. Which, by the way, in the Wizard of Oz, the Peak Behind the Curtain, famously it was the Wizard of Oz himself. Yes. Wow. What a fascinating reveal. They didn't know what they were going to get.

They're like, is this going to be an alien? Wait, I never finished the movie. Oh, no, really? How far did you get? Right before it. I just saw the curtain. I was like, I'm going to take about 15 years and I'm going to come back to this one. Really?

You only got to it 15 years. And nobody spoiled it for you until this moment. Not a one. Wizard of Oz has never come up on set for you, somebody saying, this is much like Wizard of Oz's referential when everybody walks into Technicolor here in Lemony Snicket's world. Oh, well, thank you for being a fan. I assume that means you've seen all my work. And every single thing you've been in name it, I've seen it.

I am a connoisseur of Allison Williams, one of the great Williams from Tell to... Who? Tell, Williams Tell. Oh, wow, wow. A Williams Tell, over to. Yes, of course. Right. Let's discuss that instead of me trying to think of another William.

Oh, wow, I just got louder in my own ears. You're fiddling with your, you've got to turn it to the left if you want to turn yourself down. No, I want it higher, I want it higher, but I went too high, much like Jackie Chan and around the world in 80 days. Oh, okay, now let's talk about it. Have you met Jackie Chan? I have met Jackie Chan, and I've had my ass kicked by Jackie Chan. Oh, what happened? He did his own stunts.

I tried to dunk on him, and he did his own stunts and jumped right across the reddyed. me, Scott Ockerman. You can't dunk on Jackie Chan? I know that now. You climb right up the backboard. After rush hour, I did not like the way he disrespected Chris Tucker, and I emailed him, and I said, I'm going to dunk on you. You emailed him.

I emailed Jackie Chan. What was his email? You just guessed at it? Did it have a period between the name? Oh, I have a little. I go through every option. So there's jacky. Dotchan at gmail.com.

Jackie Chan at me. com. Jackie at Jackie Chan. com, which was the one. He uses his own contact on his website. You know what? I bet you're right. Indeed, does his own stunts, he answers his own emails.

He does it all. He rolled his ankle answering my email they had done. Oh, no. They're making Rush Hour 4 right here, so there's another chance for you to get upset at him disrespecting Chris Tucker. He must stop disrespecting Chris Tucker. I won't see it, Scott Hockerman. He won't understand those words that are coming out of Chris Tucker's mouth. And I've had enough of...

Who refuses? I've had enough of it. I've emailed Brett Rattner. Yeah, I'm done. I'm done with the rush hour movies. He's very respectful to Owen Wilson in the Shanghai movies. He is, yeah, you prefer those. I do.

Noon nights. What about afternoons? What about delights? Shanghai delights. Throw it down. Allison Williams. I love it. Let's go straight to production.

Pitch it to Jason Blum tonight. I will. I have a lot today. I'm going to start keeping a list of things. I'm pitching Jason Blum tonight. Okay, well, woman who sees X's for heads. Shanghai Delights. I'm going to give no context to the next one.

I'm just going to say. to Shanghai Delights. It speaks for itself. It speaks for itself. It speaks for itself. Speaking of speaking for yourself, you're here. You're a broadcaster, of course. People don't know who you are.

You've been on the show several times. You work for T. I work for TV. I was going to say TBS or TNT. I couldn't figure out which one was. ESPN and Fox Sports. I don't pause after the T and TV trying to come up with the second letter.

Television. T.L. Yes. Yes, I broadcast for, I believe, ESPN in Fox Sports. I believe. I believe so. It's so, there's all these. It's hard reading the checks.

And it's all one conglomerate isn't it these days? They're all owned by the same big. Preach, Bill Walton. Preach. Oh, yes. And content is getting watered down because one owner, and that you've got to be hooked by the first 30 seconds or you're turning it off. I can't believe it's Scott Ockerman.

Is that a concern in sports? I mean, usually the beginnings of games are pretty boring. Yes, so I try to spice it up a little bit. I'll kill somebody at the beginning. It's the Mike White theory, you know? Oh, yeah. You make a smart show, but then you do the things people want. You kill someone, you create a little mystery.

Well, yeah, apparently didn't the network say, like, I really love the script, but just kill someone at the very beginning and we'll make the show. I think so, and he did it. And we're enwrapped, aren't we? I mean, the show's ended by now. Oh, yeah. And we know exactly what happened. Totally.

And we can all say it in unison. But we're not going to, because people are catching up. Exactly, yeah. But yes, I played basketball for the Portland Trailblazers of Portland, the Boston, Celtics of Boston. I believe I found out I played in St. Louis what I told it. That's true.

And in St. Louis, I said I haven't. Someone backstage whispered that to you, I believe. And for the Bruins of the University of California and Los Angeles on the beautiful Polly Pavilion. That's right. UCLA, over there in Westwood, California. For John Wooden, the great basketball coach, who instilled such wonderful lessons to me. One of the great Woodens.

One of the great Woodens, of course. From that little boy, Benadios. To, let's see, Wooden. The Allen. Alan. Yes, Wooded Allen. Woody is short for Wooden Allen. Woody Allen was to become a real boy.

I'm not even going to finish when this one is. Bill, are you glad you never did a Woody? I continue to audition for Woody's. I continue to. I figured finally I'll be cast in something. Nobody wants to work with this guy. It's perfect for me. I can't get booked.

I can't get booked. I'm not Jewish enough, he said, and I miss you enough. Too confident. Really? Yes. How Jewish do you have to be? And how Jewish are you?

Well, Owen Wilson, again, I must be a fan. Did a pretty good job on Midnight in Paris. He's not Jewish, but he played Jewie. And John Jusack? John Jusack. Bullet's over Broadway. Joan Juzak? What did you say?

I said John Cusack. I heard John Jusack. We hear what we want. Yes, yes. And how Jewish am I? Circumcise me right above the Jew sack, if you would. Of course, when you go to the circumcision barber, that's what you asked for. That's true.

Yes. But how Jewish am I? I celebrate all of the major Jewish holidays. That's true. You're a man of the people. You're a man of the world. Yes. But mainly you're a deadhead.

I love the grateful dead I can name up to one of their songs. Which one of you? and give you. Terrapins station? I still haven't listened to that one. That's the one you bring up. I still haven't listened to it. I refuse.

Riding the train. High on cocaine. Casey Jones. That's the one I know. Because it's named after my favorite Ninja Turtles hockey man. That you're going to say just ninja Ninja Ninja Turtle.

He's one of the Ninja Turtles. He's a lesser known. He's honorary. Honorary Ninja Turtle. They said Casey, you love pizza. You have a laugh with us. He could be a ninja turtle. He's just out of sight.

He's just out of sight. And rest in peace, of course. Casey Jones, is he dead in one of the movies? I've seen all the movies recently, and I don't remember that. In the after credit secret of the years, the after credit secrets, they kill Casey Jones. The execution style. Yeah, Nick Fury kills him. Really?

Yeah. Early Nick Fury appearance. Early Fury. Remember when David Hasselhoff played Nick Fury? Uh, what? In an early Marvel thing? Oh, really? Yeah.

Like an 80s one? I believe so, early 90s, yeah. Oh, man. Who do we think plays Fury better? Hasselhoff or Jackson? Hasselhoff or Jackson? Alison, what do you got? Well, I would never hassle the Hoff,

so I would just say Hasselhoff. Plus he had a music career that's not appreciated enough over... Yeah, very appreciated in Germany. Although, could Sam Jackson have been in Knight Rider? I don't think he would have done a good job with that. No. Hasselhoff's way better.

I will stomp out this Jackson slander right here. He could have aced Knight Rider. He could have been Kit or the driver. True. One of the great kits. Oh, from Cat to... Harrington? Harrington.

Who's that? That's a throne. That's a throne man. John Snow, one of the great snows. Oh, yes. From Al Snow, the wrestler, who would say, what does everybody want, had? What does everybody need, head? To informer, some.

That's a bitabana. A leg a boom boom down. We got there, Scott. We did. We certainly. Bill, what are you doing here? I am here to promote my lovely new children's book. You have a children's book.

I have a children's book. I have a children's book. I have a children's book. Children's book. Just in time because, Alison, you have a child, I believe. You have a child. And you have a child. I'm reading, I have a child on my notes here.

And yes. And it's not one and the same. No, we don't share the same child. We each have one. Two different children. Can you believe it? Has thine children met yet? We have not met.

Allison and I are just, it would be strange if they had met before you and I have to ask, I don't know. Do you know? Do you know? Do you know? Do you know? Do you know? Do you know?

Do you know? Do you know. Do you be certain? No, I haven't asked her. That's true. That's a good point. Yeah. Well, I'll go home and I'll ask him and you ask her. Okay.

Yeah. What if they did you hate each other? Would you two hate each other? It is interesting because I'm sure that you must have, your child must be friends with other people who have children. Am I getting this right? Is that how it works? Most of his friends are parents. He is, he's pretty precocious.

His friends have mostly young kids who are his age. Right, right. He just gets along with their parents better. He's going to be hanging out with the teachers on the field trips. He's just quitting smoking. Oh, interesting. He's struggling. Nicotine is tough, you know.

Get him to patch. Yeah, but I see a real capulet Montague thing starting here. Yeah, interesting. They don't get along. Then we're going to have to like, you know. That is, of course, a reference to the immortal bard himself. The immortal bard. Willie shakes.

He did die. He did. Yes, he has died. It's weird that we call him that, isn't it? It doesn't make sense. Unless there's something someone knows that we don't. I don't know. It's very strange unless they're talking about maybe his works being immortal.

That can't be it. No, that can't be it. I think he's a Highlander and cannot die unless you cut his head off. Oh, right. He continues to write under different pen names. Oh, interesting. What is he writing these days? Yeah, what's he using now?

Oh, Billy Shakes. Wifeman's in trouble. He's staffed on that. Oh, he's at the staffing level now. He just loves to work. He loves to work. I think it's just kind of whatever. Beyond the assistant.

He's... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. His life is that long. He's a guild member. He's in the guilt. He's in the guild. But he'll write animation too, which is a different level. Did he cross the picket line?

a few years ago? He did. He did, yeah. He was a scab? He wrote for Mindemencia when everybody else was, uh, he wrote that season of loss that everybody hated and he wrote the Diamond episode. Was that, did people cross the picket line for that one? I don't know.

My memory's a little foggy on that. I can't be true. I don't know. Yeah. No, lost was a respectful show. The people, Damien Lindeloff, if nothing else respects unions. That's true. If nothing else.

If nothing else. You heard it here. If not the. audience. At least union. At least the union, he's a union man. You have a children's book, you were saying. It is. It is. It's called the ABCs of the NBA Amper San WNBA, from Infony Hardaway to Zsa-Patrata, a novel for children.

A novel for children. In five acts. That sounds daunting. I hope you read the audiobook. The audiobook is read by me, yes, with Forward by me. Do children like audiobooks? I figure that... Your voice is just so soothing, I would think.

Thank you so much, Alison William, for the compliment. And Allie Upt to Bill Walton. I appreciate it. Usually parents are like a human audiobook. Yeah, that's not true. When you really think about it. Oh, then Andy Circus's children must be having the time of their lives. Who did the J.K. Rowling ones or the Harry Potter ones?

Speaking of little boys who fly around. That's true. They have modes of transportation, but they do fly. Hold on. Peter Pan v. Potter. Whoever wins we lose. The alliteration alone. Peter v. Potter.

Whoa. This is like a way to expand the Potterverse as well as the Paniverse. Exactly. You and... Your post of peas. That's right. You and Radcliffe, you and Radcliffe together on screen. I'd like to see that.

I would love to see it as well. On screen or off. I'd like to see the two of you together. Can you imagine Smee teaming up with Voldemort I mean Where's Captain Hook in all this? Usually like The secondary guy teams up with the other guy's

Secondary guy Yeah Smee is just like jumping over the line Hook turns good Whoa Turns good The enemy of my enemy is friend Hook pairs up with Potter Turns good

That would have been a good Alternate title for the show Friends The enemies of my enemies My friend Yeah I agree I agree with that I agree with that Scott Ackerman

So what is What is this book? It's basically just naming people who played for the NBA? NBA-related terms from A to Z for children. Oh, even just terms? And pictures, yes, terms. So A is Anthony Hardaway. B is basketball. Okay.

I like you get to it on the second one. Describe that term. What is the term basketball? Well, of course, we all know it is the orangest. The most orange of all balls. Of all balls. That's so true. What a profound observation.

Not necessarily the roundest, but close. No. What would you say is the roundest of balls? I would think the billiards would have to be the most round because otherwise the game doesn't really work if they're not exceptionally round. I agree with that. And some would say the nine ball is the most orange of balls.

Is the nine striped or is it? Oh, I don't know. Well, now that, okay, or maybe the three? Which one is the orange ball? I'm trying to remember back to playing pool in my basement and my dad yelling at me that I was doing it wrong. I'm so sorry. Was that Bill Walton,

the first? Bill Walton the first, yeah. Bill Walton the first, yeah. Or the negative ones? Yes, it goes bad, so I'm the zero. Right. My son is Bill Walton Sr. Of course.

So B is basketball. So yes, do you understand what it is or do you need more of a description? Honestly, I can't picture it at all. In the book, do you give like every piece of information, like a Wikipedia entry? Like how the rules and all that? It's great detail. And like a Wikipedia, it is

constantly editable. So if you'd like to edit the book, go ahead. We have mods on the book. We just have to reprint it every time you do. Do you need blurbs? I would love a blurb. Okay. Are you, uh, are you offering blurbs? Um, I'm, I can't write, but I can, you can't write. I can only read. Oh, interesting. Yeah. All you have to do is just, like, imitate what's on the page. It's never clicked for me. Okay, interesting. But I can verbally, I can deliver one verbally to anyone who buys the book. Oh, really? Like you'd go to their house? Yeah, I'll sell them door to door and I'll blurb it in real time, which, which, what is, a blurb but a sales pitch. Wow, this is going to, I have to call my publisher.

They're going to be saying, have you blurred before Allison Williams? No, I've been too busy, but I will go out the next year of my life to blurbing and selling your book. All of 2023, you will blurb WNBA and WNB, the ABCs of the NBA. You're forgetting the title of I'm back, I got it. The ABCs and NBA. WMBA. Yeah, I'm there. I'm there. Let me finish the title. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. From Anthony Hardaway to Zaza Pichulia. Now, are there some letters that, unfortunately, like, B, stands for basketball, just, like, basically crowds Brittany.

What's her name, Griner? Yes. We had to talk and decided not to involve Brittany Griner, because we do want the book to sell in Russia. Understandable. It's a little complicated, but we do have blored of war for the guy that they traded for him. So he's heavily featured in their slam dunkin.

It seems hard to mention him without mentioning Britney Grider. We made it through. We made it through. So, yeah, we have Merchant of Death. He's in there a few times. Merchant of Death. Yes. They traded her for the Richard of Death.

How did you get a nickname like the Merchant of Death? You become the Lord of War. The titular Nick Cage played. Oh, that's right. That's the gentleman that they traded for Britney Griner. Interesting. Celebrity for Celebrity. Wait, so Nick Cage played the guy that they trade in a fictional movie?

Yes. In which movie? Lord of War. Oh, okay. Was that one of the ones that he just kind of does, like, they pay him a million dollars and he I think it was relatively big. I remember the trailers. It was around the time he did Family Man.

Remember that one where he's got a bow and arrow in the trailer? I don't remember it. Or maybe that's the weather man. Family Man I remember is like him from behind. All I remember is him from behind. He's in shadow and it's snowing. Oh, interested. Sorry, I got it.

Nick Cage from behind. Hello. I don't love to watch Nicholas Cage Act, but I love to watch him leave. Hand cut. Nick Cage is leaving. Let's watch. on those getaway sticks. So what is C?

I mean, I feel like we're just going through each of the letter. Yeah, do you want to go through each other? Is that how it feels like? It's a little bit. We can jump around letters if that's more exciting. Okay, yeah. What's your favorite letters, Scott Rukman, and Allison Williams? I've never thought about this.

I mean, is it not us? No, I don't know. Any time I see S. Perhaps or a K. Now you're just guessing letters. No, those are members of your family. Oh, that's right. SEC.

Or ski. I don't know. I've never been asked what my favorite letter is. I mean, it's just as stupid a question is what's your favorite color, right? Well, go on. What is it? Favorite, I mean, who has a favorite color? I do.

And I have a favorite letter. Okay. What do you got? My favorite letter is A, which is... Interesting. ...egotistical, but it's also the grade I aimed for. It is the name of my partner, who I love. And it's the first, it's not his name.

It's the first letter of his name. It's the first letter of our child's name. Wow. Okay. So that is my favorite batteries are all comprised of those letters as well. That's right. Yeah. And big diss to the D battery.

Yeah. Throw it in the bed, the drawer with the rest of the asshole batteries. Exactly. It's double A or triple A for else. And Williams, you're going to hear first. And then what is your favorite color? Is it amber because of the A?

No, it's blue. Blue. Just plain blue. Just plain blue. That's what I would always say when people would say, what's your favorite color? Yeah. It's just like, how can you get up? How do you love?

Unless you were in iPhone 65. That's true. Of course. But I used to try to be interesting, so I would say purple. Mm-hmm. You used to try to be interesting. Yeah. You've since given up.

No, I've given up, yeah, obviously. You became inherently interesting, so the color that you liked didn't have to be. Thank you, Bill. Thank you so much. You fascinate me. All right, so we've done A, though, but let's do K. What is K in back? Oh, so we move along to the letter K in my basketball book, which is Killer Dunk.

K for Killer Dunk. Has that term ever been used? Just now! Killer Dunk. and me when I'm trying to get the audience entertained at the beginning, I say, kill or dunk, I've murdered a man right when somebody, well, stay tuned for the rest of the episode. I have to say it's surprising that it doesn't start with Kobe.

Oh, yes. That would have been a very good one else. Well, you don't want to bring the audience down. Yes, yes. It's a very bad idea to bring up something sad when you're talking to an audience. You don't want to have that conversation that early. Yes. You know, because if you just, if you talked about his wonderful basketball achievements,

eventually they get to, well, what is he up to now, dad? Yes, yes, they always ask that, don't they? It's so true. And it's the time, do you be honest? Is that, I explain, you know, well, for birth to death, you have to give him the sex talk to let him know how he was born. Well, wait, how does it work? What, say, if your child asks you, where is he now? Oh, man, we're really going back here.

Well, when a person loves, well, I guess that is. When a person loves a person. With that song had been just as popular. If those were the lyrics. I argue more popular. Do we know who that song is by? When a man loves a woman is It's not by the righteous brothers, is it?

When a man, when a, when a, when a, no, I'm doing, I'm going too low. When a man loves a, I don't, Win a, I'm not sure. Is it by Sam Cook or someone like that? I don't know. It's not on his live in Harlem show. He was a singer, but his name is Cook.

Huh. He should have been Sam Singer. It's alliterative. Well, we don't know what he did in his spare time. He might have been cooking. That's a good point. We might know him for his singing, but really his enchiladas were where it was at, as the kids say. I would have loved to try Sam, Sam Cooke's enchiladas and Sam Smith's.

I'd like to try his swords. Sam Smith's enchiladas. You heard of your first. He really should have a line of enchiladas. He's so sad because none of us know that he makes a mean enchilat. I also saw Sam Smith's enchiladas do a 20-minute improv set at the Delclose. I'm surprised that B isn't for Bill Walton. I mean,

or you must have said W. Oh, fuck. We got to reprint a bunch of, oh, W. Oh, no, W. Wilson. Oh, Wilson, the basketball? No, the volleyball.

The ball and Tom Hanks hangs out with. Wilson, Cumber, Rita. Is it named after Rita herself? I believe it was a coincidence. Oh. Is it strange, though? Like, you know. As many things are.

Yeah. That's true. Yeah. Life is very weird. Yeah. People are strange. Well, since my wife. That is a door song.

That is not a Grateful Dead. Do you like the Doors better than the Grateful Dead? Oh, the doors did some wonderful. The doors to perception. You're big into those. I am. Adlerus Huxley. Oh, just Huxley.

From doors to perception to Brave New World. Keep going. To the Cosby Show. Wait, what did he have to do with that? Huxstable. Oh, Foxtable. Did you think Atlas Huxley would start in the Cosby show? Yeah, yeah.

It was Bill Cosby. Oh, no. Oh, I don't like that show as much anymore. Why? What happened? Allison, we've got a lot to talk about either out here or not. Let's do it here. What's that?

Let's do it here, no time like the present bill. All right, well, we've got a man named Bill Cosby was, well, his parents. When a man's named Bill Cosby. Not as popular. Not as popular of a song to the righteous brothers or whomever sings that song. Yeah. But yes, Wilson, the volleyball is W. He's always in the front row at Knicks games.

He's a huge fan. He's always next to Ben's. for Spike Lee? No, it's for Spike the volleyball. There seems to be a lot of volleyball things in this book. It's a basketball book. You must write through free association. I sit down at night.

You must. You really must. And writing, when you do it, you must treat it like a job. Even if you don't have a, you know, a nine to five, you must sit down every morning. I sit down at nine o'clock. How long is this book? A 450. In five hours.

You're writing too much for a children's book at this point. You need to take it a little bit easier. Don't you need to take it a little bit easier? Don't you need the children to be entertained for a long time? You need to sit them down in front of something. I'm sure you'll probably just do the television, the old idiot box. All right. The T.V.

Television. I see these children's books and I go like, these took maybe 20 minutes to write. You know what I mean? Yes. And they don't rhyme. They should all rhyme. They should all rhyme. They should have to rhyme.

Just like Shakespeare. That's true. Yes. And they should all be an Iambic pentameter. That's right. But these children's book authors these days, they're just going. for a buck. They're not enough for the art of it. Like me, my book does all right. It does, really. I don't want to prove it, but it does. Well, this is incredible. Is it in stores now?

No, I believe Allison will be delivered. Yeah, I'm not sure you. If you want it in 2023, that I really appreciate that. Are you able to handle travel? Yeah, I can handle travel. All right, and I'll just give you some walking around money. You meant can I handle it emotionally or can I handle it financially? Financially, I believe, is what he'll give you a per diem if you actually pay for the travel. Well, what is the prudium? Just some walking around money, probably around $50 bucks. I mean, walking around in L.A. is becoming very expensive. That's true. You've got to pay to

cross the damn street, it feels like these days. Although, no, they just decriminalized jaywalking. So I'm sorry to disagree with you. Oh my God! Coletto! Whoa! Coletto! He's going to be so excited. I thought you said Leto. Comituary. Call Lidot as well.

Call Lowe. I can't give him a call. I'm sure he loves to Jaywalk. He breaks all the rules, doesn't it? Whether it's on set or in life. Do you think that they cast Jay Leto as the joker? And it was just J. period. Leto was a typo. And then Jared Leto showed up.

And they're like, oh, fuck it. This guy's not telling jokes at all. Where's the deck? There's something. Bad bad. All right. Well, we need to take a break. If you order the book now, though,

Alison, will show up to your house with a touch of walking around money. Wow. When we come back, we have someone who works for Macy's. This is a, Bill, can you stick a book? around? I got nothing to do, baby. Weird. And Allison will be here.

We'll be right back with more comedy bang bang back after this. Comedy bang bang, bang, we're back. Alison Williams of M. Thregan is here. And in theaters now,

how many theaters are we talking? Let me guess. Let me see if I can hit the number. Yep. Two. Was it Price's right rules? I didn't go over, right? I'm close.

No, you got it. I'm the closest? You're the closest. All right. Wonderful. No, I would guess it's probably in approximately 3,400 theaters. I actually do not know. You do not know.

Well, catch it while you can because you're going to want to see it with a ton of people and all your buddies and just high-fiving each other and a fantastic time of the movies. And then, of course, we have Bill Walton here of the NBA. Yep, you got it. Scotti, Oaks. Good to see you again. Wonderful break we had. We stopped it up. We had a laugh.

Is NNBA in the... Also, I'm surprised that W wasn't for WNBA. Oh, fuck, I got to reprint another one. Wilson's going to be mad. Honestly, it's like you didn't think about this very hard. It's so weird. No, I thought about it.

I just reassociated it. And then when I edited it, I didn't think of these other great ones. I get it. We need to get to our next guest. She's someone who works for Macy's. Allison, did you ever work retail? I sure did. Where did you work?

Guess. Out of every store in the work. You might guess it. Someone guessed it recently on the first drive. Someone guessed it, really? Yeah, just take in my whole vibe and then put a designer. No, it was a specific store. Was it guess? No. I think Northstrom is a specific store. It is, but I mean of one brand. Okay, one brand. Uh, Connecticut. This is Bernie Sanders? Yes, I worked at the Bernie Sanders. No, wait, he's Vermont. Yeah, he's Vermont. Everything 99% off.

It was Ralph Lauren. Ralph Lauren. Oh, okay. Yeah, I can understand that. Although Ralph, that's not Allison. That's true. I should have only... You know, although you may have vomited every once in a while. I did, I have in my life, mostly when I was a baby. That's true. Really?

You would say, what percentage? 75% of the time you vomited when you were a baby? I'd venture more. I'd say about 98%. I think so. What about you? You parents eat a lot of bad sushi or what? Have you done it a lot?

No, babies vomit constantly. I don't remember ever vomiting when I was a baby. The majority of the times I remember, in fact, the entirety of the times I can remember vomiting. I was a grown-ass adult, usually after a night of, uh, libations. Oh, yeah, you have a little fun. And then the next morning we were in credit, don't we? But we say we're not going to do it again, but then we do, don't we?

We always do. But I'm not sure if she works retail or she's an executive there. We'll find out. Please welcome for the first time on the show, Macy Hadigan. Scott, it is so weird and good to be here. Hi, wow. It's so great to meet you. Hi.

Wonderful to have you. This is Allison. This is Bill. Wow. Wow. The pleasure's all mine. Two big stars back on comedy bang bang. Yes.

And then you. Yes. You are lovely. Have you ever considered doing mannequin work? That is such a strange compliment. I haven't. The lovely part? Exactly.

No one's ever said that to me before. The mannequin thing I get a lot, but the lovely thing is fair. I would buy anything you're wearing. What do you mean when you say do mannequin? I guess I've never really thought about how mannequins work. Does someone pose for them and then someone? makes it like chisels them or sorry up until like three hours ago i was a full-time mannequin at macy's in manhattan what does that mean you were like a living mannequin i've i've seen some of

these like art installations where where there are people who kind of pose and they have to be very still is that what you're talking about like a mannequin skywalker or Throw it down One of the great Anacons From Annexswagher to Manichin Nope, I don't know if you can tell by my grayish skin But I was a full-time frozen An animate mannequin

Oh You know, I thought so Interesting So you were not alive You were Or were you? No, not alive but conscious Which is terrifying

You were sentient Yeah, sentient I've been sentient since the 70s, late 70s, early 80s. Were you been a man? When I stop being senties got up. All right. Stop high-fiving me.

Yeah. I wish I could high-five, but my fingers are like this. They're sort of just all one big piece, my hands. Yeah. Are they, can I see those? Because we can break those apart. Ah! I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Oh, fuck. I have to do them all, though. Oh, fuck. I don't. I know my God! I did! That's better, right?

Now you can sort of move them around. Oh, yeah, nice. You can grasp things now. You have a plausible thumbs. You've just unlocked one of the great mysteries of the world. Yeah, you can also unlock doors. Yes, and that's my big question is I think I only got 24 hours at this thing. What human experiences should I hit in the next 24 hours?

Can I ask before we get to that, how did it happen? Is this magic or? I got awoken with a kiss. By whom? Gary, the assistant manager of Macy's. I have gotten very close since his recent breakup. He's a good man. He's a good man.

So you were sentient and was he like kind of circling you and casing you for? Yeah, well, mostly I was an ear to listen to his problems for a while. He'd go back in the stock room and he'd say things like, I'm such a loser. I'm such a loser. And then he would look at me and go, what do you think, Macy? And then he'd go, oh, I'm talking to a fucking man again. I'm such a loser. And then when he...

Little did he know. You were sentient and could hear everything you were saying. I know. I heard it. And then he brought me to life. He had a real rock. Was it true loves kiss or just if anyone had kissed you? I hope so. I love him back. I think he's just wonderful. Oh, really? Mm-hmm. But he kissed me and I came to life. And I just have the feeling that I get 24 hours. Magic. I don't know if you're familiar with magic. It's usually on a 24-hour. Yeah. I mean, I've never experienced magic. Did Peter Pan fly around through magic? Yes. It was magic. Yeah.

Initially it wasn't, but they added fairy dust because kids kept trying to jump off windows. Yeah. Okay, great. But yeah, so you're on a kind of like a Jack Bauer experience. Exactly. I hear a ticking, anxiety-ridden ticking sound at the end in the beginning of every hour, just to remind me that I don't have much time. Wow. So how long you've been out for now?

Like three hours. Three hours. What have you done in the three hours? I had eggs, Benedict. and it was fine. Who told you to start there? I'm just curious. And why aren't you with...

Who is it, Gary? Gary thought it would be nice if I really had the full human experience. Let me guess. You guys had sex in the first two minutes. Immediately. And he's like, I'm going back home for a while. Yeah, basically instantaneously, we had sex.

It was awesome. Love it. Can't recommend that enough. So now that I checked that off, my bucket list. Yeah. And the eggs Benedict thing. I had heard people talking about it.

I mean, you hear a lot of conversations. You eavesdrop. Oh, yeah. I can only imagine shoppers being like, hey, where are we going to eat after this? Oh, I hear there's a great Eggs Benedict at fill in the blank. Exactly. We do talk about Eggs Benedict pretty constantly.

Yeah, as humans. As we shop. I haven't been to fill in the blank. That's a good. Ex. Yeah, no, it's really a great. H. H. I.L.

He's a chef. You know, we're all talking about the same thing. But, yeah. So what I gather from eavesdropping on the human experience is people hate their families. Everyone's stressed. Yeah. Yeah. Especially around crowded departments.

Especially around Macy's in New York City. Yeah. Yeah. It's really bad. And shopping fills the void in your hearts. Yeah, that's, I mean, that's pretty true to life. Wouldn't you say, Allison? I would say so I shop pretty constantly.

Can I ask you mentioned you were in the stock room. Did, is that like, did something happen? You were moved from? on the sales floor? Alison, I'm actually glad to be talking about this. A lot of shoppers think my face is off-putting. They put a little too much lipstick on me. Okay.

And my eyes are a little too realistic. So sometimes when shoppers complain, I get thrown in the back. I see. Oh, okay. I mean, you look lovely right now as a human being. I mean, your eyes are just life-like enough. Okay, thank you. But as a mannequin, it's terrible.

A lot of people screaming, a lot of kids holding onto their mom's legs when they see me. Why didn't they just throw you away? Well, Gary keeps it. Oh, okay. Gary. He has my back. He won't let them throw me away. So he just puts you in the back in the stock room for a while, then trots you back out. Yeah, they tried switching on my arms, didn't help.

It did. Did that hurt? Put sunglasses on. It did. It did. It's excruciating. I feel pain like anyone else feels pain. But yeah, they tried putting a little hat on me.

That didn't help either. But, yeah, a hat on a hat, really. Yeah, they put a little beanie on me and it just. didn't help didn't fix the problem. Yeah, just put sunglasses on you. It's the eyes. Exactly. And you know, you would also be a great mannequin. I didn't mean to come in here, Bill, and just Allison. No, no, I understand. I understand. I'm a little off putting as a mannequin. A little big. The sizes would have to be bigger and I would only wear tie-dye. Yeah, of course, but there's a section for that. That would be in your writer.

Yeah, I'm a mannequin right on you. What's in your rider as a mannequin? Well, I only want to be wearing glorious outfits. I want them to be gorgeous. You know, I don't know if you know this, but we do have somewhat of a connection. The red dress that you wore in that episode of girls, one of my favorite episodes of TV. I wore it first to the costume designer saw me wearing it. And from you. So I kind of owe you for like one of the great experiences of my whole career. Yeah, you owe me. I really do. Reaches for Alison Williams wallet. It takes what I can find. Yeah, you're welcome to everything. I'm about to come into a lot of money because I'm working for Bill next year. So you can have whatever you need from me. I mean, financial.

were not negotiated. I was, I believe I was told I was going to have walking around money. Oh, yeah, yeah. When I walk around, it's extremely expensive. So it's, I mean, it's $1,000 a block basically. Jesus Christ. So, thank you. I mean, he's extremely underwater here.

He's so generous. I'm really underwater here with this book house. Please don't do this story. I mean, the generosity just continues, but thank you. I thank you for giving me that costume. Yeah, it's one of my favorite costumes in TV history. I can talk about it for a million hours. They left the TV on in the back room of girls.

Oh, okay. Got to watch girls in the backroom at Macy. And Gary was watching girls? Is that? It's a comfort show, man. If you're going through a breakup, it really is nice to spend time with those four ladies. I'll tell you that. Yeah, well, I mean, you've never been through a breakup, have you?

No, but thank you for reminding me that I basically haven't had no human experience. Well, I mean, let's get you out there then. You say you're looking for things to do. I mean, you're here in Los Angeles. Yeah. By the way, you made it here so fast. Yeah. It's amazing.

Did you, what mode of transportation did you use? Can Manichens? The Phil Collins Contchord? Exactly. Exactly. The live aid. Yeah, I had sex with Gary immediately. Got on a plane.

And now I'm in sunny Los Angeles. I've been walking down Hollywood, just taking photos. Hollywood Boulevard is beautiful. It's my first stop every time I come here. Have you tried the new lasagna store? Is there a new lasagna store kind of like sunset and vine? Really? Like those like little shops.

Or maybe like near the Pantagos where it's like a Greek place. And it's like, how do any of these stay open? Yeah, isn't that where the burger place is? The shake shack is a little further down right across the street from the W hotel. How do you get there? What route do you take? From where? Let's say you're coming from the valley.

I feel like this is a question. You usually ask someone else. Oh, well, I mean, from Studio City, I'd probably pop onto, you know, Lancashim or if I'm further north, you know, Magnolia or whatever. So Magnolia to the, what, to the 134? No, I'd stay on the 101 and stay on the one of one right. I'm so glad that this is part of your 24 hours. Yeah, I was starting to think I was like, uh-oh, did I make the wrong call of using some of my 24 hours to come on comedy bang bang? Also, you just made Los Angeles sound gigantic.

How am I supposed to experience the city in one day? That's true. Scooter, obviously. Yeah, definitely. I'm scooter. The best mode of transportation in Los Angeles or any major metro. And just leave it wherever you just feel like getting off. Just leave it lying in the street.

Treat it like shit. You could really turn to scooter like shit. They can't do anything. Kick it around. And you don't think that people would be scared to see a mannequin in the city? No, honey.

I think everyone will react totally normally. You'll fit right in. And also, I know that TV's supposed to be like really good these days. Now that I have... Don't spend your time just watching TV. But we're in the golden age of... I know.

There's so much content, though. You'll never get to watch it all. I mean, I guess you could watch all of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Okay. Yeah, you'd really have to do both of those. Then you'd have to do Mad Men to see more flawed male lead character.

You really can never get enough of those. Right, exactly. Somebody's like really angry all the time. Angry all the time. Sopranos. Yep. You definitely want that. Hoops, you gotta watch hoops.

You gotta watch hoops basketball. H is for hoops. P is for p. And you gotta watch some basketball. It's balletic the way these men glide and women across the floor and the crazy things they do play in a kid's game for money. Huh, women felt like an afterthought for you in that. Well, I announced men's basketball, but I'm not. I love women's basketball, the great wildcats of Arizona and the rest.

Every single other team. All the teams. What else? Universal Studios. Oh, fuck, yeah. Definitely. If you really want to see how movies are made. Park in Frankenstein.

Park in Frankenstein. They're going to try to send you to Woody Woodpecker. Park in Frankenstein. I'm going to say a DMV visit. Oh, okay. Yeah. It's a big part of being. alive. And a DMB concert.

Yeah, definitely if you can. You got to hear a crash live at least once in your life. Maybe you'll luck out and he'll toss some shit over a mountain. Over a bridge. Yeah, a bridge. On to your head. Do you know, and I just heard this recently, that if you move from out of state, they make you take

a big test to get your license in California. I learned that too when I moved here. You just learned it in the first three hours of being here? Yeah, did you cry when that happened? Because someone I know did cry. I did cry. I got pulled over by like three police cars. with an estate license. It's a driving test or like a what kind of test?

Or a written test or a combination of both. It's a written test. You answer one question, then you drive around a little bit and you answer another one. Yeah. Yeah, it's a written test. This is just what I heard. But it's a written test and so much of it is about California driving laws and not even about driving. Well, you got to stop at a red, but then you can make a right turn.

Exactly. And some of them are like, it should be fun, normal driving questions. And some of them are like, how long will you go to jail if this happened? How long will you go to jail? Yeah, that was one of the questions. 25 to life. Exactly. It was like 34 months.

It's a trick question. You'll be executed. Well, fair is fair. California, I get it. Now, let me ask you all this. Yeah. So you pull up to a stop time. This is a hypothetical.

It's a four-way stop. It's you, car to your right, and then a car directly across me. All get there at the same time. Car to my right, car directly across from me in front of me? No one's on my left. No one on your left. No one on left. Okay, so I'm in the left-hand lane?

Or it's a single-lane highway? It's a two-lane blacktop? Two-lane blacktop? It's Tulane Black Top Street. I don't know what a stop sign is, so I'm going to sit this one out. It's a little red hexagon, six-sided. It says stop on it, and that's how you know you're supposed to stop. No one has ever talked about a stop sign in the department store?

No. Never came up so weird. You needed better conversationalists walking around you. Oh, yeah. Stop sign. If you know how to talk, you'll talk stop sign at some point. Okay, so what's your hypothetical? We pull up.

You're all there at the same time. Okay. Who goes first? And I'm not asking who's on first. Who? Oh, I see. So there, wait, so there's someone, it's a three. Is it a four-way?

A four-way stop. A four-way stop. Someone's across from you. I think we do. You. Yeah. So wait, you're saying if everyone arrives at the same time. I go first because I feel entitled to go first.

Good. Okay. That's the right answer, Allison Williams. You just passed the psychopath test. I passed the mechal test. The only question on the psychopath test. What is the answer? Oh, sorry.

You probably know. I don't. I don't. I'm asking you all. No, no, that's why I'm curious, because I always get confused. Did you get in that situation? You just parked, got out of the car, and then you came here so you can find out what the answer was. Yeah, my car is downtown L.A. right now.

At a four-way intersection. It's on flower, yeah. You just got out and said, okay, I can't figure this out. I'm done with this one. Throwing my hands up. So if you all see. Your jersey up in the air. Your car's still there.

Yeah, if you see a red 98 Ford aspire on flower, that's Bill Walton's. Speaking of the Bechtel test, that show Fun Home did not pass it. Isn't that surprising? It is surprising. Always talking about the day. That's so true. Let's talk. Do you guys, anything?

Oh, yeah, no. It's a ring of keys. You have a beautiful voice, Bill. Can you tell by the way we just screamed ring of keys to get a crossover? So a lot of people singing ring of keys. Yeah, walking through the store. It's a joyful situation. I mean, I'm near Broadway.

People go see a Broadway show. The two get stuck in their head and they go shopping. I was a fun fact in Get Out, Rose was going to sing that song instead of giving the keys to Chris. and then we decided ultimately it shouldn't have been sung. She was just going to sing the entire song. In the script or in your improv on set over another. In the script, in the script. Jordan is a very complicated filmmaker who envisions things that sort of merge genres.

And that was one idea he had, but he's not too proud to move on. Do you think of the sequel to M. Three and you'll dance with the doll? I don't, Scott. Have you ever danced with the doll in the pale moonlight? Of course. Jay Leno. By the way, that's something you should absolutely do is dance. Dance?

Yeah. Where do people dance? Wherever they want. Yeah. Like no one's watching. Does it look good? Oh my gosh. That is the weirdest, strangest dance I've ever seen.

Sorry, my hips have been jutted forward my whole life. I don't know. I'll dance to this song. We'll give you some support. Okay. I'm on tonight. My hips jut forward and I'm starting to feel alive. That's all you.

It's all you. She went full Shakira. It went into her hips. It was like watching Shakira in person. Have you ever watched Shiky? care in person? Not do not perform, but I've watched her, you know, act in person and yeah. What?

I was at the Super Bowl. You've been on set. I was at the Super Bowl. She performed at the Super Bowl. Her and Jaylo both stuck their tongues out me at me rudely. They were mad at me. Do you think J-Lo got put into the Super Bowl and they wanted Jay Leno? And they were like J-period-0. L-hyphen-O. This guy's getting fucked over and over.

By bad call sheets. Yeah. What else could you do? I mean, you got a... Well, I'm definitely interested in the human suffering part of it. So you mentioned the DMV. What are some essential human suffering things that I can. Withdraw for sure. We have to get you chemically dependent on something.

Something, yeah. Smoking, drugs, whatever we can do. Don't mind if I do. Would you like one of my cigars that I've been smoking this whole time? Yeah. Bill, you must have some LSD on you. I mean, in me. By the way, I love the way this room smells right now.

Thank you for smoking a cigar this whole time. Yeah, it's awesome. It's me and Piven do this all the time. Yeah. The Piv. The Piv. Does he sing Jeremy Piven? Does he sing Jeremy?

What about what happens when it's his birthday? He thinks Jeremy's spoken all the time. Jeremy's... Piven. While you were chatting, I just had a handle of marshmallow vodka, so I think I'm ready to go. Yeah. Is that what Gary gave you? Martial vodka?

Yeah. How old is Gary? Guess. You could be 18, it could be 52. But he's definitely over 18. Yes. He is 52 years young. Oh.

You guys got to go to the Saddle Creek Ranch. I think. House of Blues. Is that still here with us? The House of Blues? I think it went away. Hard rock cafe, obviously. Hard rock, definitely.

Yeah, at Universal Studios. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What is your favorite thing about being a human? And then I'll do that today. Uh-huh. Wow. I guess I've never really thought of it. But maybe the connection that we forge with people we love.

I was going to say cutting my toenails. Yeah, very similar. Oh, no, but you'll have to rip my toes apart. Here, let me get it. It's inevitable. Let's do it. Oh, I snapped the little one off. Oh, no, you can keep it.

Oh, that little piggy's gone, we, way, way, way, all the way to the trash can. Don't even joke. That's my fear to be thrown away. Oh, I can only imagine. So many of your friends must have been thrown away over the years. Yeah, when the Macy's and Michigan Avenue shut down, they sold all the mannequins, but no one wanted those mannequins. Oh, no.

So they all ended up in the dumpster. And then where do they go from there? I don't know because it was really off-putting to walk by them and everyone was like, don't go to that alley. It's really scary right now. Yeah. So, everyone hates me. I'm so sorry.

Well, you're alive for now. So what happens after the 24? Do you die? Do you re-manican? Do you go to hell? I was going to say one of the other great human experiences is writing your last will and testament. And if you want to make sure that you don't get thrown away, we can, right?

We can put that. I'm a notary. We can get this done right now. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I'd love to set you up with some sort of entertainment lawyer or something. I'd like to leave all of the money.

I have to Allison William. Oh my God. Incredible. I did just take it out of your wallet. I gained interest on it, so I think I made money. And I would like to not be thrown away. Okay. And I would like my three best friends to come visit me.

Uh-oh. Who are they? Oh, yeah, never mind. There are people who aren't here. Macy, I learned this from the movie. I'm three. And three, and a lot of times when big traumatic things happen to people, they form attachments with the first people they come into contact with.

And I think that's what's happening for you right now. Yeah, I guess. So we're not best friend. Well, my boundaries are bad enough. Yeah, let's be best friends. Okay. This sounds good. I mean, I think I'm all filled up.

You just said that the best part of being a person is like connecting with other people. And then I tried. I'm a little busy this month. I'm sorry. You emotionally tell me in the track. My January is really packed at this point. I know it's early, but. Yeah.

Are you interested? Oh, you know, I'll put it off for a while and then make some crazy plan I don't want to do with you last minute. And then bemoan the whole time. Yeah, like, why am I doing this? Why am I doing this? Yeah, so I don't know if you wanted to go to like IKEA or something like that. Oh, I would love that. Have you been to IKEA in Burbank?

No, but that's my dream. Yeah. IKEA is. Yeah. Because, I mean, you as a mannequin were put together. Uh-huh. So furniture being put together, I don't know where. I'm going with this, but it sounds like it should have something to do with each other.

Keep going. Keep going where you're going. No, I have an emotional connection to it. And also, like Macy's, you can get lost, lost, lost, lost, lost in there. That's true. Yeah, Macy's is huge. I went in there once. Yeah, the-

I don't think I saw you. Really? I don't know. I might have been in the back room. Yeah, you're probably in the back. When you go back and, I assume you're going to be remanicant. Are you going to pick a different pose or did you like the one you were in? Well, my dream is to pick a different store.

I don't know if you've heard of Ralph Lauren. Oh. Oh. Oh my goodness. I have some news for you. I might be able to help you land this gig. A little poll over here with your best friend. Yes.

This is, I can't, honestly, this is weird. The coincidences here. Wow. I still know the manager of the Ralph Lauren in gorgeous, gigantic,

famous, widely known New Canaan in Connecticut. Do you think he'd hire Gary? A weirdo who kisses Madigan? Yeah, a 52-year-old man who works at Macy's in New York City And he has sex in two minutes flat? Yeah. Well, not everything about him is bad.

So he has record time for sex. For sex length, for example. Gary told me that that was a really long time. He was right. He was right. He was only, can you earmuff for a second? Yep. She's only alive for 24 hours.

We should just tell her that that's how long sex is. She feels good about Gary. Yeah, let's say it in unison. Yeah. Okay. Sex lasts for two minutes. And no longer ever. You guys are my best friend.

All right. I'll be your best friend. Why not? We have a great group here. Yeah, this is a good vibe. We should go on a road trip together. Rob some banks. Well, we could fly out of the Burbank airport after we go to IKEA.

That's true. Yeah. It's right there. We could go somewhere else where you could finally come. We could fly to New Canyon, Connecticut, where you could. Yes. Where you could. Finally land that job that you have always wanted.

Yeah, stop at the Grand Canyon on the way. Vegas. Grand Canyon, Vegas. Grand Canyon, Vegas. Grand Canyon, Vegas. Vegas? Which one? I don't know. Oh, man. They're so similar. It's weird that Vegas doesn't have a Grand Canyon-themed hotel.

You know what I mean? You fall into the middle a bunch? Like, they're always building up. Let's build down. Wow. What a profound idea. Yes. I think that's a genius idea. Let's do, let's bulldoze the Trump Towers. You should be mayor.

Of what? Los Angeles. Oh, okay. A timely. A timely. A commonly. I saw your voting guys. You know what? People are like, who's the candidate.

I'm like, let's think bigger. Why limit ourselves? I think Scott Ackerman should be mayor of Los Angeles. Kermit, the frog, was on your voting. I just like the way he sounds. I like the way he thinks. I think rainbows are beautiful. That's true.

Not crazy about the way piggy treats him. I think he's under him in a big way. It's a little bit of a Ginny Thomas, Clarence Thomas situation to me. Well, it also is basically he's being sexually harassed the entire time he's at work. It's a workplace. Constantly. Yeah. That's true.

That's true. She should have a speaking to, and I don't want to get too political. here, but nobody does because she's a woman. Okay, all right. Well, you brought up Clarence Thomas. What did he do? Well, we'll begin with putting a pubic hair on a coat can 34 years ago.

We can start there. Put a beepic hair on a Coke can. All right, well, guys, we're running out of time. Macy, we're going to do all this stuff. We're going to hit Vegas, Grand Canyon. I got you, girl. Don't worry. We're going to do all of this. But we are running out of time. We only have time for one final feature on the show, and that is, of course, a little something called plugs. Shut it from the roof tops.

You want to tell the world you got something to plug. And baby, I want to hear those plugs right now. You got a new movie over a TV show or a podcast or a... Of course. I love to laugh. Oh, I loved ending on that. I thought that was so beautiful. Allison, you were taking a sip of water and you spit it out.

The whole table is what I'm so sorry. Oh my goodness. That was Morrissey Plugs by Shane Leroux. Shane Leroux. Thank you to Shane Leroux. And guys, what do we want to plug? Obviously M3 again is out there in theaters now, Allison.

Let's plug that. What do you guys think? Should we plug that? Yeah, I guess we would plug that. 100% see it in a theater. Thank you. Thank you. Experience, laugh, cry, scream.

What are you up to beyond that? Beyond that, I'm almost finished filming a limited series for Showtime called Fathletha. How limited are we talking? One episode? Oh, eight. It's limited only in that it will end there. Really? No matter what.

No matter what. I don't want to say that, but yes, no matter what. And you wanted that. I asked for that. I was not the lead, nor the producer, nor the showrunner, but I made a request upon casting. You looked every member of the crew in the odds. I did. I got consent from every single one.

Yeah, I said this is it right. I don't want you to get paid for any more than that. Exactly. What is this called? It's for a show. Fellow travelers for showtime. For showtime. Yeah.

Fellow travelers. And do we know what it's about? Is it based on anything? It's about, it's based on a book, but it's about a love story between two men starting in the McCarthy era. 50s going all through the AIDS crisis and the 80s sort of a forbidden love. And I am the wife of one of those men. The McCarthy era. Do you mean Jeannie McCarthy, the casting agent?

No. Well, I believe we all live in the McCarthy era. That's true. I'm more in the McCarthy Miller era right now, but. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, that's what I'm up to. Do we know when that is out? I don't.

Something next year. Very good. Please come back when you say next year, 2024? 2023. Around the time when I'm finished selling your book, I'll probably come back and we'll do a progress report. I would love that. I would love that. I'm really underwater here with how much money you're asking for.

Yeah. Speaking of which, speaking of underwater, Bill. You have something in plug you were telling me before the show? Yeah, Avatar. The Way of Water. It's still out there. What is that? I've never heard of it.

It's a cinematic experience unlike any other. James Cameron, whose parents loved each other so much, they made love. And father ejaculated into his mother and then gave birth to him nine months later. Oh my God, this is how it works. And then years later, he walked into the room to pitch the sequel to aliens and just... A hard cut, too, years later. Hard cut. Pitching avatar.

You know, he learned some stuff. He married Valerie Ferris. Is that who? Oh, no, he married somebody else. Catherine Bigelow as well, right? Excuse me. And then he walked into the room, wrote Alien. Catherine Bigelow, Mail Jigolo.

I'm going to pitch that to Jason Blum's here. Yeah, this is a good. She's attached. That's four pitches today. I have a lot. I've a lot to do. Don't forget them. Don't forget them.

Catherine Bigelow, Mail Jigolo. X's for heads. X's for heads. Something delight. Shang High Delights. So only three, only three. Okay. And then the Bill Walton's story.

But so Bill Walton's, the ABCs of the NBA Amper Sand WNBA. From Anthony Hardaway to Zazeperney Hardaway to Zaz-Zobry Petrilia, a book by Bill Walton in 450 pages and five acts. Let's also plug, you probably know about CBB World, but Bill Walton, uh, what's the, the, you did a couple episodes for us. Walt's World is on there. You travel around the world and, uh, and tape it. Yes, and Big Grande website.com to get comedy from the group Big Grande and a man dog pod,

the Improvaccon conversation podcast. Fantastic. And, uh, Macy Hannigan, what do you want? I mean, obviously you're a mannequin who's just come to life. It's interesting. Macy Hannigan, that, that almost sounds like, Like, if you just did the M, mannequin. Yeah, Macy Hannigan, the Macy's mannequin.

Oh, interesting. Branding. You've been here for only a couple hours. You're already branding yourself. Exactly. If I could only live for 24 hours, I know what I'd do and what I'm going to do, it's going to be listen to podcasts. So you can check out Hey Riddle Riddle, a comedy podcast and sitcom D&D,

a comedy D&D podcast. Season two of that just ended. And season three of that's coming out. Yeah. Oh, I'm so happy. It's not a limited series, though. It's not a limited series. It's unlimited.

Unlimited. I'd go forever. Not me, though, but the people there. And, yes, check those out. Anywhere you find podcasts. Hey, Riddle Reddle and sitcom D&D. Wonderful. I just want to plug the Comedy Bang Bang Book coming out in April, and we're very excited about it.

I signed thousands and thousands of them for all of you who ordered them, and they're all off to the printer now. And yeah, very excited. head over to CBBworld.com slash book, and you can still order it. The signed ones we've all done, but the unsigned ones are out there. We want to hit number one on the bestseller list, so we're really aiming at that, aiming for that? Four. For that.

Yeah. But you can also aim at something. Can you not? Yeah, you can. You can. You can. Get by that mic. What do you say?

I don't know. I'm still deciding. Like mentally, like you're leading back like the show's over. No, we still have to close up the old plug bag. Of course. Let's do that. And this is the one that Ben Schwartz came up with last week. Let's close up the old plug bag.

Doors are made for closing. So we take them up and shut them tight. And then doors are made for locking. So we take our key and make it right. We turn it to the right. Oh, no, that unlocked it. It's time to open the plug. Open the plug.

Open the plug Talking open the plug bag Everybody loves it Take your key and turn it to the Right and open up When you're feeling really down And the moon is right You gotta

Grab the key and turn it to the right When you want to make everybody free You gotta look at yourself and set the plug back free You gotta open up the plug bag Get your friends together And open it up You got to open up the blood bag.

Here we come. Get your friends together and open up the blood. Open. Oh, boy, we did that last week and I have erased it from my memory since then. It's going to be a good year. It's going to be a great year. Please remix that. I believe we're hosting the STEMs somewhere for all of you remixers.

Please remix it so I don't have to listen to that all year. Guys, I want to thank you so much. First of all, Allison, wonderful to meet you and wonderful to have you on the show. Thank you so much for having me. Please return if you were ever in Los Angeles. I know you fit this specifically into your schedule, and I appreciate that. I had a blast. It's so exciting to be here.

Wonderful. And Bill Walton, great to see you again. Thank you. I suppose I'd rather jump into a pool. No, we're not doing what you rather at this point. No, I'm sorry. No, the show's almost over. And Macy Hannigan, the Macy's mad.

I'm looking at you. You're stiffening up. It's happening. Oh, no. You've only been up for three hours. I love you. You're my best. Oh no!

Well. All right, well, I'll take her back on the plane. You know what? I think we should just throw her in the trash, honestly. Wasn't that the one thing in her life? I noted. Can we cut the part? I know.

We don't have any use for a matter of here. Let me just... That was a test! Oh, no! She's back! Sorry, sorry. Okay, we'll see you next time. Thanks, bye.
