What if I land, two if I see, gas station taco, my booty hole leaks. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang. Thank you to John, leg was armed though. Slant rhyme, but worth it. Hey, Shimmy. Hey, what's up, guys? Happy holidays. Happy holidays.

What a holiday. What a delight. Yeah, you've been in, trapped in here for so long. What are you talking about? What holiday? Talking about Christmas, talking about- Talking about Christmas. Thanksgiving?

It's just been Halloween? What? Oh yeah, there's candy. Christmas candy even. Yeah, no, it's Christmas next week. I fell asleep. Yeah. You fell asleep, wait, like a Rip Van Winkle kind of

situation? I did, but not at all. For how long did you fall asleep? One month? One month? Yeah. So how long did you fall asleep? A month. One month? Yeah. So wait, so you were there for Halloween. You were there for- Loved it.

Had a great time. What'd you dress as? Was it tryptophan? Sorry, you have time for two more. Hold on, hold on. What did you ask, Jeff? I asked what did you dress as for Halloween? If you did.

I dressed as the Noid. From Domino's? From Domino's? Yeah. Wow. How did you construct the costume? Oh man. Not from Press Your Luck. Not the...

Was that the Noid from Press Your Luck? Or was it... I mean, there definitely were little things in there. A Whammy? A Whammy. No Whammies, no Whammies, no Whammies. Oh yeah, there wasn't a Noid, huh? Do you remember that dragon on Tic Tac Doe?

Yes. Every once in a while they get hit that dragon. Rawr. Four pixels coming right at you. So back to my question, did you fall asleep at Thanksgiving due to the tryptophan and you just woke up? I guess I must have. Wow.

I'm so sorry. Well, yeah. I did also get hit by a car. Oh, okay. So this is a coma we're talking about. Yeah, I fell asleep in the hospital. Oh, no, I don't think. For about a month.

You didn't go to sleep in the hospital. You woke up in the hospital. Both. Wow. Wait, so you got hit by a car in the hospital? Yeah. What is that car doing in there? I don't know.

That should be the safest place for you. They never told me. They never told you? You have a right to know. I know, I was doing my rounds. Wait, are you a doctor? No, no, I have a right to know. I know, I was doing my rounds. Wait, are you a doctor? No, no, I'm a candy strapper. We don't know anything about you, Shime.

I don't, I'm this is- Shime's gotta go, alright. Oh, damn it, cause he just revealed, that was a great reveal. That was a huge reveal for the holidays. I didn't even know he still had candy stripers. Yeah, amazing. Welcome to the show, my name is Scott Aukerman.

This is our special Ho Ho Holiday episode for 2024. Wow. And let me introduce this person to my right. He is of course the Hanong Man. You'd know him from such movies as, I wanna say what was the one with Mark Wahlberg who was like Flight? It was Flight with Mark Wahlberg.

Yep. So if you wanna watch me and Mark Wahlberg. Just look up flight. Just look up flight and watch it. It's a fantasy movie about people who are immortal and fight between good and evil and it's called flight. Fight or flight. Fight or flight.

Yeah. Yep. Cause that's the thing like with superheroes, you can either punch someone or you can fly away. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Fight or flight is the Denzel Mark Wahlberg movie where they collapse and they fight each other. But please welcome him, Jason Hanong-Manzukas is here.

Hey, oh, wow, wow, wow. Look at us. Look at us. Two grown adult men. Just two middle-aged men in the middle of the day talking on mics. I hope I'm middle-aged. Oh, I hope so too for both of our settings.

Yeah, I hope I'm not at the tail end of the time I have left on this earth. Ooh, just the tag. Yeah. No more acts left, just the tag. My cold open was amazing. Oh, really good. Yeah, it was great. It came out of the...

Opening credits were good. Oh, yeah. Your theme song, Dynamite. Incredible. And then act one, eh. Act two. Act two, okay. Three, not so good Incredible. And then act one. Eh. Act two. Act two. OK.

Three. Not so good. Four, better. OK. How many acts in your? I don't know. I would love to have at least 12 acts. Oh, wow.

A 12 act structure. The classic Hollywood 12 act structure. Now, the Bible only has two acts. Oh, thank you, Robert McKee. What about Acts of the Apostles? Hey-o. Hey, Shime's back. Shime's back. Know your scripture. Bye. Oh, geez. Robert McKee. What about actually the Apostle? Hey, oh hey, shimmy's back. Know your scripture Again he left a Bible. Okay. Oh, let me pick up a Bible on the table. I'm opening it up

Wait, it's not in a real Bible. It's it's got a bottle of whiskey inside. Oh, wow Crack it open open up. Oh, it's carbonated whiskey. I love that. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha.

Ha ha ha. Amazing. Oh, Jason. I saw you panic when you were like, well, a whiskey bottle doesn't make a sound when it opens. What does he just go like, ffff, pop, something like that? Yep, there you go.

Yeah. You're doing so much good foley work. So much good. Almost as much as Dave Foley did in News Radio. Oh, so good., you're doing so much good foley work. So much good, almost as much as Dave Foley did in news radio. Oh, so good. That's the quintessence of foley work. Exactly. Jason, so good to have you back.

Scott, I'm so happy to be here. It is the holidays. It's time to gather loved ones. The house is decorated beautifully. Thank you so much. It's time to gather loved ones around us and hold them tight and close to our breast. And you are chief among them, a good friend to me,

a good friend to the show, a good friend to others, I would imagine. I really only care about me and the show. Yes, and those are my priorities as well. Everybody else can get fucked as far as I'm concerned, especially during this, the holiday season. Yes, get fucked this holiday season. I'm sending out my Merry Christmas cards to you,

enter the show, and my get fucked cards to everyone else. Of course you can buy currently our Freedom Christmas cards that say go to hell on the inside. Is that right? I love that. Based on a Lauren Lapkus story from her youth. Perfect. But Jason, what are your holiday traditions go?

Wow, wow, wow. Well, you know are your holiday traditions? Go. Wow, wow, wow. Well, you know, my holiday traditions are, I mostly just go home and see my family. I don't have a lot of holiday traditions. They don't come to you. They will not come to me. Really?

They will not come to me. They refuse. They refuse. But I go to them happily. Massachusetts, Maine, beautiful, it's winter. We do trees, we do sledding, we do stuff if we want. Stuff if you want, wow. It's snowy, it's beautiful, it's winter, come on.

Come on, it's wonderful, it's beautiful. You ever break your leg or neck or anything? I have broken my leg, yes, playing soccer though. Playing soccer, really? You had nothing to do with the holiday. So you kicked the ball so hard. I in fact kicked another player's leg so hard. We both missed the ball.

So that leg did not break. That's like a super leg or something. Well, you know, his, I was, I was not wearing my shin guards, is what I need to tell you. I was not wearing my shin guards. And when our legs met, you remember the old Joe Theismann video where-

Oh, of course, yeah. Yes, that's what my- That's my favorite video. That's what my leg did as well. My leg went like, bloop. I wish MTV played that instead of like Culture Club and Billy Idol and stuff. Oh, at the time?

Yes. Okay, you wish music videos then were just cut to the Joe Theismann injury. Just play that video over and over, things like it. How much MTV are you watching now? Oh, only maybe, I've slimmed down, maybe nine hours a day. You look great. Yeah, thank you so much.

With less MTV in your diet, you look great. Yeah, thank you so much. With less MTV in your diet, you look great. But so you kicked this gentleman and- Well, we were both kicking for the same ball. We both missed our legs connected and mine shattered. Wow. Yeah, no good. Bad, I was in bed for like six months. You were in bed for, that's a dream. Because yeah, it was in high school,

in my parents' house is pretty, yes, it was a dream. I would love that now. Oh really? I would love to go back to high school, break my leg and then go stay at your parents' house. Okay, by the way, they would love that. Would they really? Do they even know who I am? Yes, oh, absolutely. Do they really? Yes, yeah, they know comedy bang bang, they know who you are, they ask after you. Love to meet them someday.

Oh yes. What about me? Hey, Shari! Oh yeah, your mom and dad know about me. My mom always is, my dad will be like, how is Scott? And my mom will be like, what's going on? And I'll be like, I don't know,

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. Oh yes. What about me? Yes, Shimi. Oh yeah. Your mom and dad know about me. My mom always is, my dad will be like, how is Scott? And my mom will be like, what's going on with Shimi these days? Oh man, mom's love me. Yeah, and she actually just texted me a couple of days ago

and said, I'm a little nervous. I haven't heard from Shimi in a month. Oh, tell her I said I got hit by a car. I will, I'll let her know. Yeah, moms love you. You're kind of a dillf, if you don't mind me saying. I mean, thank you. Do you have kids? Jimmy, do you have kids?

Not that I know of anymore. Anymore? No. Gotta go? That's a sad twist on that clever retort. Oh, God. Anymore? I don't like the sound of that.

I didn't know of them then, but I think they might be gone now. Oh, Jesus. Well, it's wonderful to have you, Jason. I couldn't be happier to be here. Do you have traditions? Well, you know. Are you building new traditions?

We're building new ones. You know, the old ones kind of fade away and the new ones start to take precedence. Wow, okay, Bruce Springsteen voice. Hey there, guys. No, yeah, we do, we have the fun like cellophane paper ball, you know, with prizes in there that you have to unwrap. You gotta come by one of these days.

I'd love to. I'd love to unwrap a cellophane paper ball. Yeah. I'd love it. I love prizes. I love things that have prizes in them. I know, I mean, I gotta admit, I won like maybe $4 on some Lotto scratchers in there

and then there's a Starbucks card from last year. Still have not used them. We just could do a Yankee swap. You know, my family with all the aunts and uncles and all the cousins. Is that politically correct these days to call it a Yankee swap? It's a great question.

I don't know why. No, you don't think so? What should I call it? An American swap? Hmm, I'm not sure if that's even really holding up these days. An un-American swap? Sure, yeah. Well, I don't know.

An American swamp? Hey, how about a- Drain it? Oh dear, oh dear. Oh God. Jason, wonderful to have you. Oh boy. Wait, why am I being, hello, why are these security guards escorting me out?

Bye, Jason! Well, we need to get to our first guest, Jason. You're of course not a guest, you're a family. A co-host. Yeah, I meant family. What if in the Fast and Furious- When I'm here, I'm family. Yeah, what if in the Fast and Furious, Dom was like, we're all family.

They're like, no, we're co-hosts. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if in the next Fast and Furious, they have a podcast. They should. They should have a Fast and Furious recap podcast. Well, I don't want to. And Corona should sponsor it because Coronas are in- The virus?

Yep, yep. The Novel, the Novel- The Novel what? The Novel Coronavirus. Oh man. I'm tired. By the way, Jason, I did wanna say to people that- Go slower, please, go slower.

I was just looking up, I was checking my facts. This is a fact checked podcast. F-f-f-f-fact checked. That's right, no Pinocchios on this podcast. No Pinocchios? No Pinocchios, but I did wanna say, don't spoil it necessarily, but fans of Spider-Man will want to look at tomorrow's issue

of Astonishing Spider-Man. Oh, tomorrow? Yes, tomorrow's issue. Excellent, ooh, I'm very excited. All right, let's get to our first guest. I love it. Let's get to our first guest. We spoke to him out there on the road

when we were being road dogs. I forget what city it was. It feels like North Carolina to me. It was Brooklyn, New York. It was Brooklyn. Yeah. Wow. Hello.

Please welcome back to the show, Hoover Personae. Hello, Scott. Thank you for having me again. So wonderful to have you back, Hoover. Hello, Jason. Hello, Hoover. It is an absolute pleasure to meet you. Oh, the pleasure is mine.

Is it really? Yeah. But two people can have pleasure, I Oh, the pleasure is mine. Is it really? Yeah. But two people can have pleasure, I think, at the same time, can't we not? Ideally. Ha ha ha ha. Oh, wow.

Oh, Hoover, you are a wit, I have to tell you. Some have said half that much. Oh, Hoover, you are killing me. Fucking shit, that is so funny. Fuck, that is good. Fucking shit. I forgot how much of a bro you are. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Ever since Hoover's arrived, you've become like, where did you get that lacrosse stick? Oh, I love him, I love him so much. Hoover, remind us who you are. I'm a writer. Nutshell yourself. I don't take offense at that. I'm a writer. Not show yourself. I don't take offense at that.

You're a writer. Yes, I'm a writer. It doesn't bother me that you don't remember anything about me. I do believe that you are a newspaper columnist, are you not? No. Strike one.

Strike one. Let's see how well you do. You write the insides of greeting cards. No, I don't. Okay, strike two. I have. Do I ever, is there an opportunity to get a ball? What does that mean?

In this strikeout scenario that I'm in, I have two strikes currently, like what would get me a ball? Yeah, drill down into the baseball of this. Have you ever watched baseball, Hoover? I mean, it's been on around me. They seem to be having fun. They do, yeah. I think baseball players have fun. It's been on around me. They seem to be having fun. They do. Yeah. I think baseball players have fun.

It's nice to be outside. Maybe a lot of stress, but yeah, that's right. To have a job outside, you know, like working in sewers. I've never really followed sports. Really? Yeah. Mostly if they had a sport that involved being in the dark, drinking and taking pills, I'd be all the year. Not a joke. That would be a great, I would, I would, I would support that sport. The closest I could find is darts.

Is there a competitive deal? Like, can you get paid to play darts? I don't know if you can get paid to play it, but I'm certain there are like, you know, like a dart, like con men out there are like, you know, like a dart, like con men out there getting paid, you know, like a dart hustlers is what I'm looking for. They have their own darts in a velvet line. Yes, exactly. Yeah.

You can get paid to do anything if someone's willing to pay you. Right. That's true. Nice to have you, Hoover. No, what, what type of writer are you? I swear to God I thought you were a newspaper. No, I do have a column though. Are you a gossip columnist?

No. Okay. Strike one for you. Okay. Oh, great. So wait, two people playing baseball at the same time? Okay, great. This actually, I like these rules. By the way, let's keep going.

If a pitcher was able to throw at one batter and then got to decide between batters that they were gonna throw to, so they were always surprised. Is that not how they do it? They don't just line up and take their best shot? Maybe I'm getting my information from that one bug bunny cartoon.

It sounds like you might be. You have a column, where is it exactly? Do you wanna take a guess? I think we should keep guessing. Do you only take a guess? I think we should keep guessing. You only have two strikes. I have two strikes, I don't wanna strike out. Why not? When you say I only have two strikes, one more and I'm out.

Well, you still have one more. Then I have to leave. But you're asking him for the answer in which case, oh, you have to, wait, if we strike out, we have to leave. If we strike out, we have to leave, yeah. Oh, God, okay, then I'm not gonna do it either. Yeah.

But I will ask, are you an opinion columnist? Well, that's not in the job description, But I will ask, are you an opinion columnist? Well, that's not in the job description, but of course I can help, but read my screen from time to time. Are you a critic? No, not by profession. Some sort of social columnist.

Strike three, you're out. Oh, shit, bye everyone, bye! I write the circular for the Garden Grove organic grocery. Oh, that's right. Oh, shit, bye everyone, bye. I write the circular for the Garden Grove organic grocery. Oh, that's right. Oh, wow. Where is that located? Garden Grove.

On the street corner. It's right on the corner. Got it, got it. Yeah, it's the Garden Grove, what is it again? Organic grocery. Organic grocery. It's a lot of Gs for one business name. Sure, now one of them stands for good.

a lot of Gs for one business name. Sure, not one of them stands for good. One of them for good. And what has been going on in the, you write about the employees, I remember. Yes, everyone's mad at me. I'm supposed to be sticking to the new items and the sales and so forth, but I can't help but put in a little drama

about the employees. Oh, you're incorrigible, aren't you? About what they really like and what they don't like. What's been going on there lately that you've spilled the tea over? What's the drama at the Garden Grove Organic Grocery? Jules, who works in the dairy department. Really, he only works in the dairy department.

What does he do? Like, just put out milk? He's a cheese monger. Oh, okay. Oh yeah. See, you thought it was a small thing, but it's actually a big thing. Yeah.

Because you look down on the little people. Come on now. That's what she said. Oh, okay, damn it, you got me. So he works as a cheese monger, and what's he been up to? He's lactose intolerant. Oh wow. And he hid it from the managers.

What? He doesn't know the first thing he's talking about. He can't eat any of those things. I feel like that's a, like a breach of that trust. That's a fireable offense. Between a customer and a cheese monger. And he was fired. Whoa.

He was fired. And he did seek reprisals on me. On you? Oh, for reporting the truth. Yeah. How did you find out he was lactose intolerant? I made him drink a milkshake. You made him or you tricked him?

Both. So first it started as a trick. I tricked him, which made him drink it. Okay, and he drank the milkshake and then started throwing up or? Everything. Everything, okay. It was terrible. Wow, and so you found out,

you published this in the circular. Yes. And then how is he seeking reprisals right now? He started his own circular at a rival grocery store. What? Does he work there? He's dedicated to attacking me. He's doing it pro bono.

No! And it just attacks you? Whoa. Does he work there? He's dedicated to attacking me. He's doing it pro bono. What? No. And it just attacks you? It just attacks me. So he's left Cheesemongering all together to become the editor of a rival circular, a grocery circular for no money, pro bono. Doesn't even mention any of the sales that they have at the grocery store.

Pro bono, but if they win the circular wars, does he get paid out of that, the award? Maybe? You think he might have points? I mean, the circular. I'm just wondering, you know. The circular wars have only just started, I don't know the rules.

Well, this is terrible, what has he written about you? He said, I'm short. Okay. Well, I mean. Nearsighted. And you are wearing glasses. He made fun of the way I speak. I mean, it's kind of funny.

I mean, everyone speaks in a different timbre. None of these are as, you know, revealing as what you'd uncovered about him. So I think you're winning the wars. But don't you see, I lurk in the shadows at Garden Grove Organic Grocery. You do? Why? Wow.

Because I don't want people to make fun of me. Oh, OK. You get it now. Is that why the shadow lurked in the shadows all the time? I mean, yeah, he was a butterface. Is that is that what he only knew? Only the shadow knows that he's a butterface. Oh, actually, the shadow wasn't much of a lurker. It was evil lurking in the hearts of men.

Oh, that's right, yeah. And he was the Shadow. He wasn't lurking in them. That's right, but Batman, he stuck to the Shadow. Maybe a small distinction, but probably important to him. You a huge fan of the Shadow? Love him.

Big Shadow head. Love that body. The body be bangin'. I'd hand him a paper bag. Sure. Oh, sure. A lot of those you can find at the store. I can joke about him because he's not real.

Doesn't he have that big scarf around his face? Yeah, he used to say, hey, put that a little higher. Put that over the entire head, Shadow. Hey, maybe wear a mask, guy. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway what? So he's just said these three things about you and that fills a paper?

He makes things up too. What, he's a fabricator? Which I don't like because it's not a true Ramona Clef. What did he make up about you? He said I could fly and that I fly over people's houses and I spit down their chimneys. Wow. Wow.

Especially around this time of year when there is... Santa might be in there. There is a Santa, you know, question mark about being in the chimney or not. People are believing you. Really? It defies belief, I would think. They see me and they say, what are you doing down here? On the ground.

Yeah. Down here on the ground. Exactly. Down here on the ground. Exactly. Wow. This is terrible. And what, I mean, just out of curiosity, what is Jules, what's the point of you spinning down people's chimneys?

Like, why does, like, what would that be? He says I'm trying to put their fires out. Oh, okay. Make them freeze to death. I think that's a stretch. Because everybody in this town's heating their homes with fires. Even if they are, just one little drop of spit's

not going to do it. This is terrible. But he says it's the attempt that counts. Oh, wow. He's written all of this. Yeah. How many issues of this paper have come out? 70.

70 issues? And how long? Three weeks. Wow. Wow. That's like three a day. I think it's some of them written in advance. That sounds like if you compiled them, that could be novel length.

I think this is a lot like Kendrick's raps about Drake. He wrote them in advance. Oh yeah. I think of the release. And just was waiting for Drake to release them. I just want to say, I do not spit down people's chimneys. You don't. and advance the release. And just was waiting for Drake to release something. I just wanna say, I do not spit down people's chimneys. You don't.

That's what you're here to say unequivocally. Have you ever spit down anyone's chimney? What is this? We're just exploring. This isn't an inquiry. An inquisition. We're just getting to know you. We're just inquiring.

But why would you need to know such a thing? It seems a material. We want to get to know you better. I mean, this is the first time that Jason's ever spoken to you. Only my second. It would be, I think it would be important to counter the misinformation that's out there about you with factual information. If you must know when I was a boy growing up in New Orleans, yes, I spit on people's shimmies. Oh, wow. Did you ever tell Jules this?

I may have mentioned it around him, but I certainly couldn't fly. Have you ever come close to fly? Like were you ever doing like parkour on rooftops or anything like that? Yeah, how much parkour on rooftops? Well, I was a little boy. Of course, we and my little friends,

we used to parkour a lot of rooftops. Like boys do. Sure, so I could see where he would get, you know, the idea that you're out there above the rooftops and spinning down chimneys. When you did engage in this, you know, spinning down chimneys as a boy, to be clear, as a boy, were you doing it, in fact, to put out fires

in the fireplace? Like, what was the, or were you just being a rebel? You're asking what was my intention as a little boy to put out the fire? See, I mean, and you mentioned this around him. And now you're blaming the victim. Okay, but did you ever say you stopped doing it? Because maybe he just feels like.

Maybe he just assumes. Like, you've got, first of all, you've gotten so good at parkour. Should I assume you're wearing a diaper because I haven't heard you say you've stopped doing it? Sure, why not? Okay. By the way, I have stopped wearing a diaper. Oh, wow, big announcement.

Too late. Well, this is terrible. I can't believe you used my, weaponized my own childhood against me. I mean, all of our childhoods are weaponized against us every single day of our lives, I think. What a weird thing to say. Really?

Yeah, you're weird. I'm weird? Yeah, you're weird. I don't say this about a lot of my guests. You're a weirdo. I'm not weird. You talk weird? You're weird. I don't say this about a lot of my guests. You're a weirdo. I'm not weird. You talk weird? You're short like a weirdo?

And you fly around spitting down people's chimneys like a weirdo? Oh no, you've bought into the lie. Wow. Scott, do you know Jules? I read an article about this. Yeah, it sounds like maybe you know Jules or you're reading the competitive circulars. It's all slander. This is what drives me to drink in the pills. Oh no, drink and pills?

That's a bad combo. Yeah, choose one. Why? Why, because together that can be lethal. Can be. Oh yes, I'm not before that. Vincent Canby? It's great. Critic?

Film critic? Vincent Canby? I thought you brought up Vincent Canby for some reason. You did. You did? I did. Is that really what you thought? I really did, Hoover. What a maze your mind must be.

I imagine wandering in there and getting lost, then just laying down to die. I love this guy. Even if he is flying around spitting. There was nothing wrong with what I was doing as a child. Just mere hijinks. It didn't hurt anyone. I agree. It sounds like perfectly innocent mischief. And I think-

Mischief, mischief. Me and my little friend, Chief, she was a little tomboy. Chief from the, who's been a guest on this show? What? Chief is a guest on this show occasionally. Chief. My childhood friend? I don't know on this show occasionally. Chief. My childhood friend?

I don't know, is it the same Chief? How many first names? I'm only just finding out about yours, so I don't know what you want me to say. The Chief I know wanders around looking for this girl, Carmen. Carmen, yeah. I believe.

Is her name Carmen San Diego, I believe. No, this means nothing to me. Okay, so you haven't kept up with Chief recently? Well, Chief went on to become a very successful flyer writer. Oh really? Where? Yeah, in the sky. Oh, like a sky writer? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Oh cool. She's a pilot. Nice. Oh wow. She writes prose in the sky. Does the pilot actually release the skywriting, whatever it is up there, smoke or goo or whatever? I think it's ink. Is it ink, really? Yeah, yeah, it's ink.

It's ink. It's lighter than air ink. This is like gaseous paper or something. Gaseous clay? That's a good idea. Oh, whoa. I gotta call my friend about this. Yep, yep. Wow.

In any case, this is terrible stuff. I'm so sorry for you, for your loved ones. Thank you. Nobody needs to be, at least why are they attacking me like this? I'm just a simple person. Some would say you struck first, but you know, I mean. The people had a right to know.

That's just Jules too. We've only covered Jules. Who else have you been writing about in the circular? Likeed a right to know. That's just jewels too. We've only covered jewels. Who else have you been writing about in the circular? Like I'm a little worried. There's hardly anyone left. Oh, okay. There's no more employees at the Garden Grove. Well, there was Gary, of course,

who confided to me that he doesn't like the white chocolate almond clusters. And of course I made that known in the circular. I changed his name of course. Was it a wine item perhaps? It was a Romanocleph. Oh I see. You're very fond of Romanocleph. I love them. How do you, or do you pluralize it Romanzocleph? Romanoclave. Romanoclaves. You remember I told you that Freddy Krueger was a Romanocleph. That's right. I do remember this. A janitor named Eddie Kluger that kids kept trying to set on fire. Kept trying to, but were never successful.

Well, eventually. He had to go from school to school to school. They kept trying to burn his cot. Wait, so he kept traveling and getting new jobs at different schools? Yes, because then the new school would hear that the kids tried to burn him down. That's all they needed to know. They tried to burn him down. And he had to keep going like the Incredible Hulk. Oh wow.

The TV show. The town to town? Not the movie. Yes. Yes. There's a fair amount of traveling in the movies. David Banner, not Bruce. That's right.

Yeah. Can't have the name Bruce. No, can't have it on TV in the 70s. I'm not a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band.

I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the band. I'm a fan of the band, I'm a fan of the title. A Christmas memory that I had once. And it was all about my favorite person when I was growing up who was this elderly lady who lived up the street. She was my only friend for a while. She understood me. She was so sweet and so nice. And then I sold the rights to my story. You sold the rights to who? Who bought the rights?

A movie studio. A movie studio. Oh wow. Wow. Yes. And it became the movie La Llorona. Which movie? What movie?

La Llorona. La Llorona? La Llorona? La Llorona. Lawyer-rona? La Llorona. La Llorona. Is that like my-sha-ro-na?

In what way? I mean, you can fit it into that rhythm. Is that what you meant? Maybe. La-yerona. La-yerona. La-yerona. How is the word, can we?

Yerona spelled. Can we play the trailer on that? L-L-O-R. ah, there it is. Got it Wait, so this was uh, I let me see if I have a trailer here This is a sweet old lady named stooch. I can hear something You're the only one they can see it. I'll turn the computer. Oh, I thought you were sending it to that. I know Then it would play on that we can the computer around. Oh, I thought you were sending it to that. I know. Then it would play on that. We can't record it.

Oh, I didn't know. Maybe the picture only can go there. Hey, man, I don't know. Learn your back. Learn your back. Hey, guy. Is this the one that you're talking about? I'm sorry, I was on my way out.

Sorry, we're so frozen. This is the curse of law, Eurona. That's not the actual. Can you say what? Wait, that's a sequel? I don't know. Anyway, what were you gonna say, Hoover? I wasn't going to say anything.

I was waiting to be asked a question. I thought I was- Did you profit wildly off of the sale of your story? No. No, you didn't. Oh, that's interesting. They tricked me. Oh, how so? A lot like you tricked Jules with a milkshake.

It was the same exact trick. What? Oh, you think you know better. Or did you then use it on Jules? They said, first this happened to me and then I used it on Jules. Wow. It was a very simple trick.

They said, we'd like to buy the rights to your story. I said, what are you gonna do with it? They said, here, drink this. And it was a milkshake. And it was a milkshake? Yeah. Ah. And I fell asleep.

Oh, no. They slipped a Mickey in it. They slipped a Mickey in your milkshake? Hopefully you weren't asleep for a month. They slipped a Mickey in my milkshake. Oh, goodbye. Ding dong, the bells are gonna chime. This is awful.

This is an awful story. I got you in that one. So here you are, almost destitute. I never said that. I'm just assuming. Almost destitute. Well, I mean, you are writing a circular for a grocery store? I mean, where are we at here? Well, I've been doing it for quite some time. I'm a valued member of the team, despite what all the jealous people will say.

Really? Yeah. The fans love me, the customers. The customers, so they're- They can't get enough. So you think of the customers as fans. Yeah. They eat it up.

Oh, wow. along with the groceries. Do you have any sense of how Jules' new circular is doing with the fans? It seems to be popular with a certain type of person. Another type of person I particularly like to associate with. Wow. I mean, 70 of these things, I'm surprised that this competing grocery store

is allowing this kind of behavior. They're not. I'm surprised. I'm surprised. Wait, so it, so this is unofficial. This is unauthorized. Yes, I never said that the grocery store.

We said he was doing it pro bono. Unauthorized like the biography of you that I'm writing, Scott. Oh yeah. There's a competing one out there. He's got one of those little tables in front of the store. Oh wow, like a full card table that he just sets it up himself and gives them out?

Yeah, if only he were playing cards. What a tremendous amount of work to put in for absolutely no return on Jules' part, except revenge. He thinks it'll ruin me and I'll be finished in this town. Are you almost ruined? Yes, and I'm almost finished in this town. This is terrible. I can't believe it's working. I can't believe Garden Grove can support two organic grocery stores. I

never said that the other one was organic. Oh, interesting. Inorganic? You fellas like to assume a lot of things, but you're never correct, are you? Okay, I mean, I'm happy to be corrected. Good. So it's an inorganic, wonderful day for you. It's an inorganic grocery store with an unauthorized circular regular grocery store. They don't advertise that they're inorganic. Okay. It's just like an Albertson. If you lie, it's called grocery queen. If you must know. Yes. Really? It used to be Grocery King.

Oh, okay. But then the king died? That's right. They staged the death of the grocery king. And this is the succession, the line of succession goes to the queen. They had a whole drama about it that no one cared for. By the way, this store sounds like

they've got shit going on. It's too much, frankly. Oh. Well, this is a lot going on for you. I'm so sorry. I mean, the holidays must be terrible for you. Do you at least have family? You have loved ones that you can gather around close to your breast?

Well, I do see my mother sometimes. This is the one that La Llorona was based on? No. That was the old lady down the street. Stooch. Scooch. Stooch. Stooch.

My childhood friend, the elderly lady Stooch. That's right. Not a first name, not a last name, just Stooch. Stooch. My childhood friend, the elderly lady, Stooch. That's right. Not a first name, not a last name, just Stooch. I never thought to ask. I love that. She's just Stooch to me. How long did you know her? How long was she a figure in your life?

I knew her for the last 10 years of her life. Okay, where did that occur in your life? The first 10 of mine. Got it. Wow, isn't that ironic? Don't you think? Yeah. Yeah.

Like two lives bookended. I suppose. Not very good bookends. Human beings would not make good bookends because they'd always want to get up to move and go to the bathroom. Then your books would fall down. Were you like this the last time I met you?

I think. Yeah. Like why? Yeah, that's wild, yeah. That's wild, yeah, you're right. I don't think that would be even a consideration that people would use people as bookends. I can imagine some like rich French king out there,

the likes of which- Careful, Jerry Seinfeld. Jerry Seinfeld talked about. What? talked about ordering his subjects to be bookends for him. There used to be human chess games. Yes. We all agree on that. We all agree.

We couldn't tell you where that happened. But we know it happened. We know it happened. Someday we'll get back to those glory games. So why not human bookend? That was true 3D chess. Mm-hmm. Well, Hoover, wonderful to talk to you.

I'm sorry everything is going poorly for you, but I'm glad your mother is there for you. Well, she's dead, but I still see her sometimes. How do you mean? Well, she just sort of appears and taunts me and then goes away. Like a g-g-g-g-ghost? It's undetermined if it's a ghost or if it's just my memory. Oh, interesting. Nobody else can see her. Okay, but you can see her. Sometimes, yeah. Can she pass through objects, physical objects? No, I haven't seen that happen.

She just sort of turns up, says something mean, and then I turn around and she's not there anymore. So you're not getting any kind of closure or anything? She is continuing to poke and prod you. She's actually making it more open. Wow. Sounds like a memory to me, if I'm being honest. Because a ghost would tell you all these things,

say these things, and then float through the wall. But then you have a memory, and the memory is talking about things that are happening now. Oh, so then this is confusing. Can you ask her next time you see her, like, hey, could you float through a wall for me so I can settle a bet?

Why don't I just ask her to go away? Why don't you? Is there something you do? She's my mom. Do you think? So you answered your own questions. Do you think she has unfinished business? Well then what do I need you here for?

I don't know. Is there some unfinished business that you could finish with her so she could leave you alone? I guess, I guess. Her unfinished business is continuing to give me a hard time. Yeah, so.

She criticizes and picks and picks. Wow, that's hard. That's a very hard person to have in your life. Always there, always in your ear. Yeah, it feels a lot like having you on the show. Whoa! Anyway. That, I couldn't, like, you started off

absolutely obsessed with Hoover. I loved him. And now, you cannot get rid of him fast enough. I fucking hate this guy. I've never heard you laugh harder at anyone in my life and now you are furious. I've done a total 180 on this guy. A lot like Dom does in the Fast and Furious franchise.

What? He does 180s. He makes a lot of U-turns. Oh yeah. Yep. It's like, oh, this calls for a U-turn. I know what I'm doing. Looks like we all owe Tony Hinchcliffe an apology.

Turns out there's a worst comedian out there. All right, all right. We got to get to our next guest. Kill Scotty? It is the holidays, of course. And we love to talk to you. Yeah. Baa! Here they are.

Oh, man. You know them as an elf of indeterminate gender. Please welcome back to the show. My dick is a candy cane, bitches. That helps. Please welcome back Ho Ho. Ho Ho! Hello, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, oh yeah. I farted out candy cane dust. Oh wow. Yum. It hurts my butthole. Oh God. Crunchy crispies. Have a lick. Mm, I love it.

Not of my ass. Whoa. Sorry. Whoa, Scott, Scott, that was presumption. You picked me up and bent me over, you sick fuck. Ho-ho, it's great to see you. This is Jason. I don't know if you remember Jason. What? Great to see you, Ho-ho.

Great to see you again. This is Hoover Personae, someone you haven't met. Hi, Hoover Personae. How do you do, Ho-ho? Really good. How are you? Candy. Didn't you wanna say Ho-ho? Ho-ho!

I got distracted by this bag of candy coming at me. What a Christmas treat. Ho-ho, it's the holidays. Ho-ho! How do you have time to be on this show? Well, I kind of did all my work earlier. I've got all the horrible things for all the kids all lined up, ready to go.

That's right, if you don't know- What's big this year for horrible things? Yeah, if you don't know, Ho-ho- Ho-ho! Ho-ho gives out- Ho-ho! You give out knives and weapons of all sorts. Yeah, but this year I'm getting a little creative.

Like how? So I've been collecting teeth. I kind of teamed up with the tooth fairy. Smart. And I've been collecting all the teeth that she gets and I'm making little weapons out of that. Little clappers that'll chomp ya. Oh wow.

Little clappers that'll chomp ya. I take two wooden planks, make a mouth of teeth, and add a rubber band around the end and go, chomp, chomp, chomp. What did you get, Personae? Wow. I was just clarifying, darling. Wow.

You see how I feel about Personae, though, right? I love him so much. You could also use that. You could use that dental impression to frame someone, because that dental print would match their teeth. You are on the right track. It's part of the long con. The Christmas con. All the kids will be blamed for things later in life.

I love that. Although I guess as their teeth fall out and they get new ones, it won't match the dental records. Well, don't you love to poke holes in plants? Oh, well, I'm just saying, like, you should bring me in on this. Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo!

Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo Like the 1500s or something? 1804. Wow. Yeah. How old are you? Do you think that's Grooge?

I'm a million! Grooge. And the Black Death were contemporary? Oh no. He's an old guy, right? We can agree on that. Listen, the plague, I understand why he's such a grouch and a grump

if he's surviving the plague. Everybody would be. Getting the plague sucks. It does? Yeah, it really sucks. Especially if you're getting it for Christmas. When you get it for Christmas, it's a real bad sign. And then that birdman comes and hangs out with you.

Which birdman? From the movie Birdman? Blank Man. From Blank Man? Michael Keaton. It's Blank Man from Blank Man, played by Michael Keaton. So tell us about Ebenezer. Ebenezer Scrooge?

Not the baby. Not the mama. Ebenezer was my dear, dear friend and gay lover. What? Huge reveal. Ebenezer was on the down low? He was on the DL. I was his sugar baby.

He gave me so much money every day. Exclusive. Gold coins, poosh. Was that, was that, I mean, it seemed like those ghosts should have been talking about that, of like, hey, you're gonna regret not being honest with the people in your life.

They don't reveal what's going on, but underneath the sheets. Underneath the sheets, you're here, where you should be. I don't know this song. New Kelly Clarkson Christmas Jam. Whoa! Come on, man. Everybody's doing it, Charlie Puth.

Do you only sing Christmas songs? Yep. Hark, hear the angels sing the song. That's it. Tell me another one, daddy. We can't do any, we can't do any more of it, otherwise we have to pay the licensing fee. Here's my favorite one.

Oh, God rest ye merry gentlemen, this earth we all shall claim. We come with gifts for Jesus and the baby's just the same. We come with gifts for Jesus and the baby's just the same. In my basket, golden scents and myrrh and frankenferts. And when you bend me over and stick the candy cane, it hurts. Hoover, what do we think about this? It's beautiful. What do you look like? I can't see you.

What do you look like? I'm just a little guy. So is Ho Ho. Ho Ho. But you're littler than me. I am the size of a dollar bill. Or two dollar bill or five, seven, a hundred. They should make the bigger denominations bigger.

They should. So that you can tell you're rich, you go, when you go to the strip club, you say, I love it when you call me big papa. And you throw a big blanket, it's $100. Wow. I'm gonna visit the strip club after this. Oh really?

Oh, okay. You like going to the strip clubs then? I do, I like to see what's going on lately. Do you make it rain? I make it rain. I make it rain, I make it clap, I make it do all kinds of stuff. I can make it rain right now. Oh God, ho ho!

Candy cane cum just snow! It's not candy cane flavored. Don't lick it, you sick freak! God, you're obsessed with me. You're the one who spurred it cum on us. It wasn't cum, it's snow. Oh, okay. So how's Santa by the way?

He's not good. Oh no. Really, I'm gonna see him pretty soon. He'll tell you all about it. Yeah. But he's not good. We're gonna watch the postman together. You are?

Il post mano? Il post mano. No, no, the Kevin Costner postman. I have to kidnap him later this week. What's that about? The postman? Yeah. What do you think?

Delivering the mail on Christmas Day. You got it. All right. Although it doesn't take place on Christmas Day, does it? I've never seen it. The postman takes that day off. It takes place in the future where mail doesn't exist anymore.

But how do we get information? We don't and that's the problem. And then the postman fixes it. He also meets Tom and Eddie. These are all spoilers by the way. I don't need to know this. Oh, I think, yeah, I think the hope for humanity is the reestablishment of the postal service. And the government. I believe is the movie. I love the postal service.

Everybody likes getting mailed. Yeah. What's your favorite mail? You ever got Postino, whatever your name is? Who ever persona. My favorite piece of mail was a Christmas card that I got from my friend Stooch. Are you naturally sad?

No. Your face feels like a hound dog. You know, I don't think I'm naturally sad? No. Your face feels like a hound dog. I don't think I'm naturally sad. What a question to ask. No one's ever asked me that before. I think it is mostly the vodka and the pills. Oh, he's on vodka and pills. Got any where that came from?

Of course I do. Would you like some? Give me a slam. Here you go, honey. Give me a slam. Here you go, honey. Give me a slam. That's right, get it down. You have a little vial. That's not the vodka bottle. I like that.

What am I sucking then? Oh God. Why would you suck a bottle anyway? To get all the liquid out. I have a long tongue like a special lizard. Well, Ho Ho, we're coming up on a break. We need to take a break. Can you stick around for a little bit longer?

I can, indeed. Okay, sir. Well, we're gonna take a break. When we come back, we're gonna have more Jason. We're gonna have more Hoover Personae. We're also gonna have more Ho Ho. Ho Ho! And other people are gonna drop by.

We'll be right back with more Comedy Bang Bang after this. Wee! Wee! Wee! Wee! Wee! Wee! Wee!

Comedy Bang Bang, we're back and we're here with Jason Manzoukas, of course, the Hanong Man himself. Hanong Man. Hanong Man. And we also have Hoover Personae here who writes the circular. Hanong Man. Oh wow, we've reset.

You know, the lingo and the jargon. I love that. I just thought it was the thing to say. I'd love it if someone, I know people put Hey, Nong Man in lots of stuff now. I'd love a Christmas song with Hey, Nong Man in it. Yeah. Someone should write that.

OK. All right, Ho Ho. Here we go. Ho Ho. Let's hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring, ting, tingling, too. Let's hear them jizzing,ingling, ring ting tingling too. Let's hear them jizzing, sizzing and gooing all of that goo. I don't know.

Hey, non man mind. Oh, there it is. Hey. Hanging quite low. Come on, it's stocking weather for a balls to break into your snow. Giddy fart, giddy fart, giddy fart, let's fart. All up in our ass.

We're smoking in a wonderland of sass. Giddy jizz, giddy jizz, giddy jizz, let's play. It's snowing all day. Here comes a big blizzard. It's coming. It's going to blow you away. Here's the hang the man song. It's a very good song you know.

Let's sing it all day long until we just have to go blow. The end of the song is coming. It's coming right now see. I'm letting you know this song is ending right now as I pee. Wow. Yellow snow. Don't eat it.

Scott will. Wow. I think we just discovered that Ho Ho pees yellow snow. Oh, you're peeing right now. Oh, wow. Don't eat it. Scott will. Wow, I think we just discovered that Ho Ho pees yellow snow. Yeah. That is what comes out. Wow. Ho Ho. Ho Ho.

Ho Ho. Great to have you here. We need to get to our next guest. That was a beautiful song. Thank you. And if a fan wants to put the melody behind it, we can release it. I would love that.

We can get that on Spotify. That'd be great. Let's get to our next guest. It's so interesting to know that we only got to know, got to know this person this year in January, I believe. Where- Why is that inherently interesting? Well, because I've known,

well, I guess I've only known you for a couple of months. You've known me for years and years. That's right. Not as long as your friend Ebenezer. Is this part of the show now where everybody that comes on you say how long you've known them? Yes. It's riveting.

The best feature of the show. It's so interesting. Because as a listener, I often think as a listener to podcasts and things, how long have these two people known each other? I guess that's pertinent to me. I guess what I'm trying to say is he's become such an important part of the show and someone we love talking to

that it really beggars belief that we've only known him now for a mere 12 months. Give me that ace, son. I miss that fucking ace. Here he is. Please welcome back to the show, Tony Sony. Oh, yeah. Besides you fucking had this ace, look at that thing.

Yeah. Sitting in that little chair. It is, it is. Oh yeah, I fucking love that ace. Hey Tony, great to see you. I missed you Scott, oh my God, how long has it been, a couple of months? Well, I think I saw you out on the road.

Why is your head that fucking tall? That's what I wanna say. Yeah, it was. Biggest fucking tall in my fucking life. Yeah, it was actually a little bigger than the head, but yeah, wonderful to have you back. It was bigger than the head? I don't fucking know at this point.

That tour was like 900 years long. Aren't you tired? Well, you didn't die on that tour. I swear to God, I'm like. I might have. This might be a hallucination. Oh, wow. I don't know. Tony, you of course, we thought you ran the Sony Studios,

but you actually run So New York Pizza. So New York Pizza, pizza, your best pizza of your fucking life at my fucking place. You have a. Size of your head, the pies. The pie, yeah, which is not- Pepperoni, size of your eyeballs. Not that big.

Wait. Pizzas are usually bigger. It's fucking huge. The pepperonis are the size of eyeballs? It's a small pizza with small pepperonis. The biggest fucking pepperonis you've ever seen in your life. What? We got the most toppings that any pizza has ever had. How many toppings? We got cheese,

we got sauce, we got pepperonis. Cheese sauce and pepperonis. All three of them when you come to my place. It's the fucking best time of your fucking life. I was there. I give advice to Hollywood people. I give stand-up. A lot of people call Tony thinking that it's Sony Studios.

And then, yeah. And then I give advice on movies. I'm like, yeah, go ahead, make it. What the heck, what do you want me to do? Go ahead, make it. I don't know, fund it, whatever. Tony What the heck? What do you want me to do? Go ahead, make it. I don't know. Fund it. Whatever.

Tony also has a wife that... I left my fucking wife. She's an Olympian. I don't want to talk about my wife. I didn't come here to talk about my wife. Did you say you left your wife? No, I didn't leave my wife, no. She's a fucking...

She won the fucking Nobel Peace Prize. Then what did you say? What do you mean, what did I say? It sounded like you said, I left my fucking wife. No, I just... I don't want to talk about it. say? It sounded like you said I left my fucking wife. No, I just, I don't wanna talk about it. He said he, he said I love my fucking wife. No, I did not say I love my fucking wife. I told you he loves his face.

I love my guma. Oh, my guma. Your side piece. She's so beautiful, my guma. Every day was hers, a fucking blessing. I'm getting emotional just thinking about it. She's so incredible. My fucking Gooma.

So what is your Gooma up to these days? Well, me and my Gooma, you know, holiday season. We gotta be ready for that, Scott. Oh, sure. So I don't do stand up during the holiday season. Oh, really? You take a break? You love doing stand up.

I love doing my stand up. I do my stand up. In the back of So New York Pizza. So New York Pizza. At this point, I was like, I gotta, I take a break during up. In the back of a So New York Pizza. A So New York Pizza, but at this point I was like, I gotta, I take a break during Christmas because for the sweet baby Jesus. That's wonderful. I need to celebrate him in full. Great, so what do you replace it with then?

What the fuck it should? I got a one episode of that. It's the one where that happens. How about the one where people can rate each other on their personality, but they get an Uber rating? Oh yeah, I heard about this one. No, I can't do that. I can't do that. So you only watch the pig one?

That's all I can watch. What about John Hamm? He's kind of like a pig. You should watch that one. He's in the Christmas one. He's in one of them? Yeah. John Hamm, besides you hit that guy. He's in the Christmas one. You said one of them? Yeah. John Ham, size of your head that guy. He's one of the best actors I've ever seen. Yeah. Did you ever give him a slice of pizza?

No, but I okayed some of his movies. Do you? Oh, that's cool. Yeah, I gave the okay. I said, okay, go ahead, do it, man. I don't know that he would thank you for that. Do you have the kind of pizza place where like if celebrities come in,

you take a picture with them and hang it on the wall? Oh, yeah, we got pictures on the floor. We got pictures on the ceiling. Oh, the floor pictures, huh? The pictures in the pie. Pictures in the pie? Absolutely. You open up the pizza, you dig through the sauce. What do you mean you open up the pizza?

It's like doubled there. The pizza's folded over. Oh, like a book? The pizza's like a book? Yeah. Wait, are calzones the books of? It's not a fucking calzone, it's a pizza. OK. Yeah, you fucking asshole. Yeah, you fucking bitch. Calzone is a pizza that's like a book. Wait, are calzones the books of? It's not a fucking calzone, it's a pizza, you fart. Okay. Yeah, you fucking asshole. Yeah, you fucking bitch. Calzone is a pizza that's been folded over.

Yeah, yeah, that's, what? You cocksucker. You cocksucker. Fuck you. Fuck you, you bitch. I love you. I love you, you're the love of my life. I love you, you're the love of my fucking life.

Did you know that you're the love of my fucking life? Aw, I love to hear that. Wait, are you his gumar? Sometimes. I mean. When you put on a wig. Well, Tony, it's great to have you here. I really think that you and Ho Ho should collab.

Ho Ho, I love it. I love it, yeah. I'm happy though. You helped me write a couple more songs this year. The Christmas duet would be incredible. Oh, let's do Baby is Cold Outside. Okay. Hey baby, I hear the blues are calling.

Pastel and scrambled eggs. It's freaking cold out here baby. Oh you. Yeah. Are you still singing Santa? You're doing the Frasier thing. Your thing is Santa, baby. You're doing the Frasier theme song. But put them together, and it's Baby It's Cold Outside. Santa's a little Santa. Tussallin and scrambled, baby. OK. OK.

And maybe I seem a bit confused. Baby, I've got you pegged. Oh, baby. But Santa, I got you pegged. Like the pig in Black Mirror. And I don't know what to do with my tossed salad and scrambled Santa, baby. I just noticed that the Frasier theme song has pegged

and tossed salads in it. Yeah, interesting. Frasier's a weird song. Frasier loves that stuff. He wrote it and he sang it. Well we need to get to our next guy. But from Tony to Tony. Whoa what the fuck? That's right we just heard from a Tony and it's take a Tony leave a Tony here. You know him as Tony Nails. Please welcome back Room Tone Tony. Would you like to jizz on a star? Whoa, carry moon jizz off in a jar.

Whoa. What is happening today? Sorry, Scott. I thought you had to sing a song to be on the episode today. A lot of ejaculate thoughts. I like that song. I want to do a quick out of this world jizz match. You know that was a song before Out of This World.

Really? I didn't know that. Yeah. How could that be possible? Because in the show out of this world, they describe how they carry moonbeams off in a jar. That was a song. That was it. Yeah. It's hard to believe. That's an absolute coincidence. It is truly sad as hell. What is going

on? Tony? I'm sad. Scott. What's what's happening? Room Tone Tony. You haven't even taken any room tone. Well, of course. Well, here's the thing, Scott. I haven't been doing a lot of room tone lately. No, not Room Tone Tony. Are you from cats? That's Rum Tum Tugger. That's Rum Tum Tugger.

No, no, that's my cousin. Now, wait, your cousin's with Rum Tum Tugger? That's right. A cat? He's an absolute Jellicle cat. When you're jizzing on a star, saying Missy mother colored memories. Since the baby.

Scott, I'm sad. What's going on, Scott? There's been a contraction in the entertainment industry, Scott. That's, I mean, yeah, first we had COVID. We're all feeling it. Then we had the strike. The contractions, they're coming closer

and closer together. This baby's getting bored. That's right. There's gonna be some dilation at some point, but right now it's just contractions, they're coming closer and closer together. This baby's getting born. That's right. There's gonna be some dilation at some point, but right now it's just contractions. So you haven't been working? I haven't been working. This has been a slow year for me,

so so far I've only worked on Inside Out 2, Deadpool, Wolverine, Despicable Me 4, Dune Part 2, and I don't know, 14 to 15 more movies in the top 20. You're actually working a lot. It's not as much as I normally do, Scott. Yeah. But they're all hits. They're all hits, but of course, you know, they've been,

we didn't go on strike. The sound union did not go on strike. Yeah, why was that? Well, we got a shit deal, Scott. And you were happy with that? Yeah, we were like, well, at least it's a deal. We got a shit deal. We took it. We fucking, you know,

we go, we do the sound, but we're not making very much money. Do you get paid by the sound? That's right. And by the volume. Bong, bing, bong. Yeah, is it more money for higher tones or for loud? Oh, absolutely.

Yeah. I was trying to give you sounds so that you would get money. I'm actually not recording. How much you get for a sound like this? $65. How much is that you get for a sound like this? Eee. $65. How much sound you get for something like, oh. That's like, I gotta split that with my other sound guy.

That's $13 each. Oh shit, what about something like, what about together if I could two people do it at the same time? Like, oh, oh, oh, oh. Okay, now I'm going on vacation to the Hamptons this year. Well, that one was expensive. You're not working on this. I'm not working.

The sound guy on this job just got rich. Whoever the sound guy is, there's a guy in the court I've never seen before recording. He's gonna be making a lot of money, Scott. But no, I haven't been able to work this much this year, so I'm hitting the gig economy, Scott. Oh, you are, really? Oh, wow. That's right.

What are you doing? You delivering? No, no, no. I'm a gap. You're driving? No, no, no. Okay, you're gonna make me guess again? Cause I already had- Guess one more time.

Three strikes with Hoover over here. Guess one more time. You're driving? No, no, no. Okay, you're gonna make me guess again? Cause I already had- Guess one more time. Three strikes with Hoover over here. Guess one more time. You're collecting bicycles. No. E-bikes. No, no, not, that'd be funny if I was just collecting bicycles. You know those guys who like collect them and then drive them a mile to another place?

I do know those guys, Scott. Yeah. They live in my neighborhood. Okay, so what do you do? And they leave all the bikes outside my house. What am I doing right now, Scott? I'm a gaffer. Oh, wow.

That's right. So, still on set. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Still on set. I've had to take on a couple of gaffing gigs just to, of course, gaffer, the head of the lighting department on set. Of course, yeah.

Everybody knows that. Everybody knows that. Well, I thought it was the guy that did the tape on the floors. You thought it was the floor tape guy? No, they have gaffer tape. Gaffer tape. Yeah, I thought that was the tape guy.

No, no, no. And Jim Gaffigan famously started as a gaffer tape. Gaffer tape. Yeah, I thought that was the tape guy. No, no, no. And Jim Gaffigan famously started as a gaffer. I met him on tour, Jim Gaffigan. Then of course there was the Gaff Squad. Yep, of course. Wait, from Premier Magazine? From Premier Magazine. And my favorite cartoon, Gaffy Guck.

No. Ho ho. Ho ho. Gaffy Guck, I don't know if I've heard of that one. I love that little guy. That feels like a Johnny Ryan cartoon. So you're a gaffer now. I'm a gaffer, I'm doing the light, Scott.

Wow, that's, I mean, that's not sound. It's not sound, but you know, of course, you know when you're watching a TV show and there's that buzz? Sure. Oh, there's more. You hear like, bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz So they start sweating. How much money you give for something like a light like this? How much money I give? Like $85.

Fuck, that's good money. That's pretty good. I get paid by the light, of course. How much you get for pizzas? Oh, I got $95.25. $95.25? $95.25, that's pretty good. Is that the split you're doing?

$150. If you find a picture of somebody cool, like I don't know, OJ Leno or something like that Oh, J Leno Oh, J Leno Will fortune Yes, are you real a fortune person a how you doing? Do you have nickels in your cheeks? Hoover Personae is now lying down. He's brought his own shed's lounge.

Frazier is not here, so you don't have to lie down. The room is spinning. Room count, Tony. Those are the pills and alcohol. Maybe. Your theory. Yes. Were you saying that your job is exclusively

to hold bright lights up to actors' faces? That's correct. To make them perspire? That's right. I want them to be sweaty, especially the ones that are going to die in movies. They got to be sweating their little tails off. I don't know if you've seen the movie Terminator 2.

Have you seen this movie? Liquid metal. Yeah, sure. Liquid metal. Morphic technology popularized in the fucking my video. Yes, go ahead, room tom tom. There's a character who is going to invent the AI that will eventually become cybernet or whatever the fuck it is.

Cyberdyne Industries. Cyberdyne Industries, yes. And he dies in the movie. And the director was like, hey, I need you to make this guy sweat his little ass off. The makeup department, they were like, well, we want him to not be sweaty. The director was like. Yeah, we need you to make this guy sweat his little ass off. The makeup department, they were like, well, we want him to not be sweaty. The director was like, we're gonna put powder on him. We're gonna put powder on the director.

I was like, I want this guy to be so fucking sweaty. A lot of times it happens to black actors as well. Interesting. When it seems like the black actors seem to be the one that they're fine with letting sweat for the entire shoot. So they said, hey, bring the light as close as you can. This is during Terminator 2. Oh, yeah, they did a re-release.

You were a gaffer on that. Yeah, they did a re-release this year. Oh, OK. Oh, I see. Oh, and they did. And they had to go back and do the lights again. I had to go back and do the lights again, of course. They did re-shoots?

They did re-shoots. For the re-release. Yes, they did the re-release of Star Wars Event of Menace as well this year. I had to go back and do the lights. Shot for shot remake of the original. I had to light up Jar Jar Binks a little bit. And they were like, hey, I know Jar Jar Binks is sort

of voice acted and physically acted by a black person. Can we make him sweat a lot? So I was like, no problemo. Turn up to 120%. Wow. Squashed his little hairs off his head. So we're going to be seeing a lot of sweaty actors then. That's correct.

Okay. As a matter of fact, I'm gonna have to set up some lights in here, Scott. Oh, okay. Hold on, let me just move this here around. Whoa, this is how this helps. We move this here, we get this really close. Oh my God, I'm melting.

Cook me like a fucking double cheese. I feel like I'm on a little weenie on a spit. Oh yeah, yeah, it really helps if you rotate like a little hot dog in a seven-o-ven. Ew, ew, ew, ew. I feel like I'm on a little weenie on a spit. Oh yeah, yeah. It really helps if you rotate like a little hot dog in a seven-o-clock. Ew, ew, ew, ew. I feel like a swastika. My ass is burning.

Now that it's very well lit in here, I feel like you guys look much better. Okay, you know, we're not filming this though. We don't have to necessarily light it. But see, that's the thing is they always say they're not gonna film it, but as a gaffer, you just light it because next thing you know, they come in, they're like, hey,

we actually do wanna shoot in that little dark corner. I guess. Let me ask you something. You will help people with the deodorants as well? Oh yeah. I bring in deodorant every day. What kind of deodorant? Natural deodorant. Oh, natural deodorant. That shit doesn't work. No, it doesn't. It's actually what people call deodorant theater, where you put it on and everyone's like, oh, you know what, it's actually, this guy's not gonna stink today. Then you get close to him and you're like, oh God, he fucking stinks. Scott, did I mention that I was but a simple union guy?

Of course, yes, we've talked about that. How many unions do you belong? Now in two unions. Two. I'm in the GAFA's union. That's wonderful. And I am in the, wait, wait, let me look down. Oh, I'm also a part of the Soviet Union, Scott.

Oh, okay. They're doing pretty well these down. I'm also a part of the Soviet Union, Scott. Oh, okay. They're doing pretty well these days. One of the remaining parts of the Soviet Union, of course, Scott. Wow. Are you part of the Union, Jack? Let me see, no. What about the Union of the Snake?

You know, Duran Duran. Yes, of course I'm a part of the Union, Scott. You've seen Barbarella, haven't you? Of course I've seen Barbarella. Look, me, I've seen a lot of movies that people like and people enjoy. Ha ha ha ha. But Scott, you know, the holidays for me are a tough time

because production shut down and I gotta be with my family. Oy. And that sucks. Who's your family? Oh, of course my sons. I've got Sennheiser, Shure, and Yeti Blue. Are those all named on what they were conceived on? Yeah, yeah, of course.

I had sex on a microphone and conceived my three children. Genius. But it sucks because I like to listen to recordings of my family where I put microphones around the house and just listen to them be themselves. I love that. It's so creepy and weird. You ever hear them talking about you? recordings of my family where I put microphones around the house and just listen to them be themselves. I love that, it's so creepy and weird. Yeah, I don't think you should be doing that.

You don't hear them talking about you. Yeah, they talk shit about you. Seems like an invasion of privacy. Yeah, but then I gotta be with them, they look me in the eye and they expect me to answer them and stuff. I don't like that kind of thing, Scott. Yeah, nightmare, agree.

You chose to have a family. Did I? Did I choose? I don't know. I gotta say, it wasn't my choice. My wife held me down and said, well, having a kid. Oh, story of my fucking life.

Wives are a nightmare, eh? Wives are a nightmare. Do you have kids, Tony? Yeah, I got 25 fucking kids. Oh, that's right, though. Yeah, University of Chicago or something. Yeah, nightmare. We have similar naming conventions for our children.

Absolutely, absolutely. You guys should have a kid together, I'll watch. I feel like people named Tony just have a kinship where we sort of get each other, you know what I mean? Well, if you're named Tony, you're usually a working class gentleman. You're a working class guy, there's probably a little bit of gravity avoid, sure.

You don't think there's ever been a rich guy? You know I'm rich, Scott. I'm not working class, I'm fucking loaded. I mean, I'm feeling rich as well. My wife is at BBL, I'm fucking rich. No, yeah, I mean, but you're not rich. If you were ever to get divorced, she would probably take- No, why is it that-

Did you sign a prenup? Yeah. Is it bad? Ironclad? Yeah. Is it bad? Yeah. That's bad, yeah. Yeah, you're not gonna get it.

Is that why you stay with your wife? I mean, you seem to hate her, even though she's a Nobel Prize winning scientist who invented the BBL and an Olympian. Now that I think about it, I guess, yeah. But before I was thinking I didn't want to be traumatic for my kids. So, wait a minute. You have a rich wife too?

Yeah, you got a rich wife. Oh yeah, my wife, she invented pornography. What? What? She gets royalties anytime anything pornographic happens. It's your lifetime anything pornographic happens. Anytime it happens. That's right.

Your wife invented porn? You ever wonder why you like, you're at home and you just jerk off and you get a Venmo request? Oh yeah. That's my wife. Whenever I come, I hear the Shopify cha-ching. That's her. So she's filthy fucking rich.

She loves when people love pornography. Wow. That's beautiful. She loves when people love pornography. Wow. That's beautiful. I love when people love it too. But that's just because I care about my fellow man. No, no, she just loves the fucking money that comes in. She's filthy fucking rich, Scott. Amazing.

And she actually said that you're one of her greatest customers. Oh, that's so- Whoa, let's talk about what kind he likes. Wait, does that mean she invented hentai? Oh yeah, she was on the ground floor of hentai pornography. That's incredible. Scott, do you hear this?

I don't know what it is, but I- That's interesting, I talked to her. It's what you like, you just don't know- Hats off as well as all the rest of my clothes. You could be meeting the inventor of hentai if you would just admit that you love it. That's so interesting. Oh wait, hentai's your favorite thing.

It's his favorite thing. No, I don't even know what it is. That's what all these Christmas decorations are, aren't they? Never heard of it. Wait, I just texted my wife. I said, hey, what do you know about Scott? is. That's what all these Christmas decorations are, aren't they? I've never heard of it. Wait, I just texted my wife. I said, hey, what do you know about Scott? And then she texted me all these receipts. And she said, read these receipts if you need to prove

that Scott is- Oh, wow. She came with receipts? She came with receipts. Receipts. And she said, read these receipts if you want to prove that Scott is into hentai. Literal receipts. Wow.

Receipt number one, hentai, a prequel. Whoa. A prequel, huh? It started with a prequel.entai a prequel It started with a prequel starting with a prequel now that's you want to start with a prequel Hentai episode zero So the prequel must be like episode Before we actually get to the real hentai stuff. Oh, and then- You love laying pipes. Yeah, that's the name of the next one. Wait, ho ho. Ho ho.

It says hentai laying pipe. Scott purchased three times by accident on three different- By accident? Yeah, he got it on his Apple TV, then he bought it on his phone, then he bought it on his laptop. Oh, Scott.

He probably was in accident, he just doesn't understand it. It all goes on to all of them. Exactly, you need an assistant, Scott. I, yeah, to sort through my hentai? Yeah, it's a big collection. You need a hentai archivist. Scott, you need an assistant.

Listen, I am looking for more gig work. I could absolutely be your assistant. I would love that. I mean, you're obviously very good at what you do. I would very good. It's hot as hell in here right now. We're sweating our little asses off. Everyone looks great, I must say.

Yeah. Everyone looks ten years in. Having a hentai assistant would free up a lot of your time. Yeah, truly. Now what would that entail, a hentai assistant? Just file everything under teeth with tentacles. Call it a day. Now that I think about it, you can't spell hentai without AI.

Maybe I should just get a robot to do this? I don't like that. You also can't spell it without taint, if you had an extra T. That's a good point. If you add an extra T. With that one caveat. That one little caveat. There's always one.

Well, Tony, it's great to have you. Can you stick around here? Yes, of course I can, Scott. Because we have to take a break. Okay. But there's a lot of people who are still here, a lot of people who are coming. We have Jason Manzoukas, we have Hoover Personae. Scott, can I say one thing?

Yes, of course. I really hope everyone that shows up has a song. I really do too. When we come back, we're gonna find out. We'll be right back with more Comedy Bang Bang after this. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Comedy Bang Bang, welcome back. We have Jason Manzoukas here, of course. Hooray. Hoover Personae is here. What? Tony Sony, welcome back. We have Jason Manzoukas here, of course. Hooray. Hoover Personae is here. Tony Sony, of course. Hey, that was a nice tour.

And we also have Ho Ho here. Hello. They're all doing their catch phrases and Room Tone Tony, what's your catch phrase? Dan, dan, dan, slay not like us, slay not like us. Fuck Drake. All right, great. We have to get to our next guest. us? Fuck Drake. All right.

We have to get to our next guest. I want to welcome them back. We talked to them, I believe, last holiday season. Is that correct? Scott, why are you looking at me like that? I said I want a private meeting and you promised me there would be no other people in the room this year. I don't talk to anyone unless it's on a podcast.

I'm so sorry. I gotta turn my free time into this. But please welcome back my lawyer, Terry Alamander. Hello. Hi, Terry. Hi, Terry. I guess lovely to be here. Yeah, wonderful to have you.

This is Jason Manzoukas. Great to see you again. Yeah, last year. And working for you has been lovely, I have to say. Thank you so much. And you have made my life so much easier. Well, when you respond to emails and you sort of take regular meetings.

What kind of legal problems are you having? They're not legal problems. They're opportunities. Yeah, well, this is my lawyer. My lawyer's making deals for me. We're creating legal solutions. Yes. Okay, great.

Well, yeah, you should do that for me. I would love to do that for you, Scott. You keep saying, fax me, and then I show up and all the faxes are going into the garbage can. I mean facts, like F-A-C-T-S. How am I supposed to know that? Like send me facts is what I'm supposed to say. Send you facts?

Okay, well fact, I got good news and bad news. What do you want? Can I have both? Yeah, good news. Okay, my daughter, we bought her a horse last year and her horse had a baby. Congratulations. Wow.

A foal? A foal. You've got a foal in the fam? Correct. That's you. Is that a foal in me? Okay, well that's fun. And I've got a hole in me.

Oh no. Take my card. I hope it's not a foal hole. It could be. Bad news, you're being sued a lot. Wow. Uh oh. It's the second year in a row and we're getting sued a lot.

Who's suing me now? Well, should we jump right in? Now let me just say, I year in a row and we're getting sued. Who's suing me now? Well, should we jump right in? Now let me just say, I've seen a lot of guests on this show. I've never seen a guest bring so much paperwork. I mean, they're back. They're mountains and mountains of books and dossiers. Yeah.

Who's suing me? Well, OK, well, let's go ahead and jump in here. January 24th, Scott, you had a- Of this year? Of this year. Okay. You had a conversation with Matilda Graveyman. Do you recall this conversation? Not really, to be honest.

It was something, if I understand the phone call correctly, about the casting of your life rights, your movie. You had some input in who you wanted cast as you in your movie. Oh, yeah, I vaguely remember this. Well, here is the pull quote. The ones I don't want you to get, Kevin Spacey, Jonathan Majors. Matilda then says, well, they're begging to play you,

so it's going to be kind of hard. Scott, if the movie is a go, okay. Matilda, Spacey, Spacey is talented. Scott, the guy, the guy is good. Do you have to put every stammer in there? Every repeating? I cut this down a lot. Yeah, you actually said,

the guy, the guy, the guy, the guy, the guy, the guy, the guy is good. So yeah, you are being sued. Who would sue me for that? And don't use those in a transcript of this. The production company that had the life rights to your movie, which is Charles E. Entertainment. Oh, no.

Productions, and yeah, so they're suing you. They're suing me because they don't want Spacey in the movie? They're suing you because you said that, and the movie fell apart. Pardon me, what was the name of that company again? Chelsea? Charles E. Entertainment.

Charles E. Entertainment. Like Chuck E. at Cheese. That would be correct. They're sort of moving in a different direction. Charles Entertainment Entertainment. Yeah, so they're sort of moving into a different direction. They were trying to get some movies off the ground and they're sort of stating that this is the reason why they couldn't get more of their films off the ground.

Whoa, was Kevin Spacey in those robot costumes the whole time? The whole time, the whole time. He had to get some work elsewhere. I can't speak to whether or not he was, but let's say the whole time. He had to get some work elsewhere. I can't speak to whether or not he was, but let's say maybe he was. Okay.

Okay, well, I mean, that's unfortunate, but I think I can weather the storm with that, if that's the only one. So they're looking to settle for $8 million for a heartfelt apology. Oh, well, you can do that right now. Go ahead. Nah, eight million.

Just settle, just settle for eight. Way to go, Scott, that's the way to go. Perfect, I guess we were on tour this year. I ain't apolog settle for eight. Wow, okay. Way to go, Scott. That's the way to go. Perfect, I guess we were on tour this year. I ain't apologizing for nothing. Eight million, you're gonna have to do like six or seven more Scott hasn't seen episodes this year. Ah, well.

Okay, Scott, April 25th, 2024. You were having a conversation with God. Oh yeah, I remember this, yeah. Playing that game, yeah. Do you remember? Cloud Slam would be the game. And you were having a conversation with God, Re God's son, Jesus.

Oh yeah, that guy, yeah. So God says, he's back now and he's Hillary Duff now. Scott, oh cool. God, he gets a new chance every once in a while because he's so pissed about that first time. Scott, oh yeah, yeah. God, I keep giving him new chances Scott, I kind of want to kill Hilary Duff.

Wow. He kind of want to? He kind of want to? And was, when you said oh yeah yeah, was that the Entourage theme song? Oh yeah. You should sing it. Oh yeah.

I'm not a performer. Wanna be your superhero. Wait that is. All right, you changed the diction. Is Perry Farrell here? Don't punch me. I'm not a performer Okay, you guys are really funny now I sort of get it clever I like this turtle turtle Here well, I mean they kill Hilary Duff on air. Yeah, okay, so who's suing me? When you say they killed Jesus, who do you mean? Ha ha ha.

Ha ha ha. Who's human beings, of course. Okay, Scott, so you're being sued by Think Before You Speak in the Ad Council for homophobia by proxy because Hilary Duff solved homophobia with those commercials that she did. Do you remember that? Oh, I remember those. Do you remember that?

Oh, I remember those. Oh, no. And so now that you're wanting to kill her, it's sort of like it's parlaying. Are those those Pepsi commercials? Yeah, those Pepsi commercials that Hilary Duff did that sort of solved- Where she's in the protest? Oh, you're thinking of Kendall Jenner. That was Kendall Jenner. Yeah, that's Kendall Jenner. What? How much-

That convinced me, though. This is so her. Yeah, it convinced me, too. I said, world peace, please. This is the one where Hilary Duff is is sort of hiding in a changing room. And there's two teens that are looking at each other's outfits going, that's OK. And then Hilary Duff comes out and goes, is it gay or something like that? She's like, don't think that. Think before you speak. And then at the end, she puts a flower in somebody's beehole.

Just like the Pepsi commercial. I tell you what, those commercials are very effective. I'd rather end all strife in the world than have a Pepsi. All right, how much are they suing me for? Scott, I was able to talk them down considerably. They are willing to settle for $8 million. $8 million, oh wow. Or a deeply heartfelt apology.

Well, you can do that right now. I had to talk them into this and they seemed really, really excited about the heartfelt apology. All right, all right, all right. So we're at 16, 16 million. Wow. I can do this, that's fine. Okay, perfect, perfect.

I'll go ahead and let them know. We'll sort of loop in the accountant on that email you're not gonna read. And that's just comedy bang bang, the book money? That's just book money. Yeah, we haven't even gotten to the holiday sweater money yet. Oh, wow.

I was hoping it never touched that a la OJ Leno. OJ Leno? Well, let's hope you don't have to here. Are we ready? Okay. What else do we have? Okay, so June 16th this year, and this one can't be right, is what I'm thinking.

You were having a con... It's probably not. Okay, well, let's hope so. You were having a conversation with Detective Jack Cates. Oh, Cates, yeah. About a coed prison. Uh-oh. Do you remember this conversation?

Begley, yeah. Did you ever find Gans? This is... I don't think he found Gans. We all went up to San Francisco together. Well, that's neither here nor there, because this was the quote that I was sent, Scott. This sounds like a dream to me to be like being in jail,

you know, that, sorry, I'm going to strike this one over. Okay, yeah, I wish I could have. You can edit these podcasts, right? Our machine is broken. This sounds like a dream to me, like being in jail with, you know, dot, dot, dot, thousands of women, dot, dot, dot, one man, dot, dot, dot. What do you mean by that?

I stand behind it. Okay, so this is, you're in a lucky position here because you're not being sued. Oh great, oh great. It's a restraining order with money attached to it. Okay. So. A restraining order with money attached to it. Okay. So. A restraining order from women in prison?

From women in prison in the US. Just women in all prisons? So I can't go to any prison anymore? Any co-ed prison. Anyone where they're doing a pilot program of a co-ed prison, you are not allowed. I can just go to women's prisons? Oh boy.

Hey, I'm fine with this. I'm not, I'm gonna take my headphones off. I'm not listening to any of this. I can't be a part of this. What else you got? Oh, that sounds bad. I came in here today and said, I quit and you stuffed a dollar in my mouth

and said, technically you're my legal counsel. I've retained you and you have to continue this conversation. I'm so sorry about that, but that's a loophole. The dollar is so wet now. Okay, so Scott, this is a restraining order. To be clear, the dollar started wet. That's, I mean. Can I have that dollar as a blanket?

You are hilarious. I love you. Please take my card. Call me anytime. Anytime you need anything. I was very busy during the year. I'm busy during the year, but at Christmas time I'm free. See, we can tell that this is a joke.

You know what I'm saying? We can tell that this is funny. And so if you said it with more of that type of cadence or some kind of thing, that's so much fun. much. Hello. Wait, tell me. Is this funny? If it doesn't fit. Hey, you hear about this? Okay. That was an OJ letter. Is this funny? How about this one? How about this one? I'm gonna bring donuts to everybody. How about this one? That's pretty good. I am passing my cards around the table. Hilarious, just wonderful. I'm gonna bring donuts everybody. That's classic comedy. I love that. So Scott, it's a restraining order plus $8 million

or, and I feel like a broken record at this point, one heartfelt apology. And you don't have to mean it. It just has to sound heartfelt. I am- Oh, he can't act. Don't do it Scott. He can't act.

Don't make that mistake, Terry. Don't apologize. All right, so we're up to 24 million. Man, all right. Well, we're dipping into the, unfortunately we're dipping into the action figure fund. Fuck. Just an apology, how about an apology?

24, all right. Tough. Add it to the bill, 24 mil. Scott, September 15th, recently. Bill, 24 mil. Scott, September 15th, recently. You were having a conversation with Seth Berkowitz and the Pine Saw Lady and Matt. It's so funny to hear the descriptions of this show, just read calmly.

I'm not, listen, this is your guy's area. I'm just, I'm here. Terry, thank you for your service. Seth Berkowitz, who of course worked for a movie past. Yes, currently dipping into the AI pool, which you sounded very excited about on the podcast as a whole. Yeah, well you can't spell hentai without it.

Okay, sure. So, Pine Saul Lady, to my recollection, is pitching new flavors. Chicken tikka masala was the flavor that sort of this exchange came after. You said, I don't know, these all sound disgusting. At first glance, Pine-Salt Lady then interjects with, you sound disgusting, at which point you,

from an audio medium, sounds like you get in her face and scream, fuck you, Pine-Salt Lady, and then a physical fight ensues. I, you know what, I don't like this to happen on the show, but every once in a while someone gets in my face. And when confronted like that, what else am I supposed to do? Exactly, sometimes you have to hit a woman, Scott.

Do you want to take Tony as a client? Tony, Tony. Tony, Tony. Jesus. What, sorry, what I was gonna do? Okay, I wanna be mad, but a very funny graphic to you right now, come on. What do you wanna do?

Can you edit that out? Can you delete it? I don't think I can. Just hilarious. Over here. He's just like a little raccoon backed into a corner and he has no choice but to fly out. Is that right?

A lot like you flying around spitting in chimneys, right? Whoa. That's been debunked. I just hope that- That sounds more like me. I really hope that Hoover Personae does not write a circular about all of us. Personae.

Personae, sorry, about all of us and all of the stuff that we've revealed. Yeah. Too late. Uh-oh, you've been on your typewriter this whole time. That's right, clickety-clack. Let's put that sound effect in throughout the last 30 minutes.

So wait, so is the Pine Saul lady suing me? Oh, okay, this is actually a little bit of good news. The Pine Saul lady is giving you $400 to take boxing classes because she said your display of athleticism was so pathetic. Oh, this is good news. Yeah. So that's actually maybe a positive.

So now you only know 19,000. Well, I own $23 million. $23 million, so $22 million. $999,990. I'm a lawyer, not a mathematician. We can sort of get the accountant to deal with that later. This is the last one. So if you're feeling OK about the settlement money so far.

Yeah, I feel good. You still have so many piles and piles of documents. This is the last one? Well, this is the last one we have time for. Oh, I see. That makes sense. Okay, we'll get to the rest later. Once again, you gave me a really strict 15 minute timeframe

in order to give you all of this information. That's absurd. We're running on, because we're 14 minutes right now. So that's tough. When Terry and I do our end of the year meeting, it's like hours. We spend hours together. And Jason, thank you for the gift.

Oh, thank you. No, it meant the world to me. You're giving Terry gifts? Absolutely. I was a debate champion in high school, and Jason found a little piece of the stage and made a frame for me. Can you believe that?

That is so nice. I went out, I found it. Where'd you find it? Where'd you find it? Well, I called the school. Oh, it wasn't just on a screen? And I found out where it's located. I said, is it the same stage?

They said, yes. I went over there, sawed a piece of it off. So now there's a hole in the stage? I don't know. It's up to them to figure that out. Wow. It was so thoughtful and a daughter. That sounds illegal.

A photo of me and my daughter and the horse mama. So it was very, very cute. What about the baby horse? The foal hadn't been born yet. The foal hadn't been born yet. Thank you for remembering. Oh yeah, I believe me. Are you gonna Photoshop the foal in there?

Why would we Photoshop the foal in there? She could get the whole family. I think that's Folo Shop. Okay, that was funny. This is just a good time. Okay, last but not least, Scott, I know last year you were a little bit upset because there was some PI that I had hired

to sort of make sure that I wasn't missing anything, had gone through your Instagram and sort of went back into your Instagram. Yeah, I'm still getting comments about apology accepted. And I hear you, and so I understand that maybe that was a little too much and a little invasive, so we did not go through your Instagram this time.

Okay, good, okay, thank you. All right, well it's great to see you. On Tumblr in December 22nd, 2016. Oh, there's more. Scott's Tumblr was huge. Still feels like Tumblr was kinda dead by 2016. Yeah, he was really holding up. You posted a selfie of yourself

with a blanket and Apple TV and a CISO poster. Oh no. Sounds like something CISO made me do. And you were doing a smile like this. Oh yeah, that doesn't look genuine. For the listeners, he looked like he was just showing teeth. That is how you smile. You know when you see a psychotic friend in a picture

and it just looks like they're showing their teeth. It's this one here. Let me see. Sort of, you can see the whites of your eyes both on top and below. Can we see? Can we see this? You look so young.

The youth, they look big in that photo. You look so young in that. What happened in these? Kind of depressing. That was only eight years ago. Something happened in 2016 to really age your ass. I will say, you have a lot of light in your eyes here. And you wrote, thanks, CISO TV for the free Apple TV.

Everyone can watch bajillion and take my wife on the new app. So CISO pretty quickly after that folded. They're blaming me? They're sort of thinking that this post specifically sort of scared a lot of people away from the platform and said, if this is what the platform is doing, I don't want to be a part of it. It wasn't the interface on the actual app

or anything like that? Nobody said anything about that. Well, I think a lot of people, I remember at the time, there were a lot of articles and stuff that felt like they must assume that CISO was a hentai platform because of your vigorous promotion. Jason, you are so clever. Legally, how would you characterize

if this is what the platform is doing what were people's interpreting that way well I think it was more if the platform was spending their money there they must be cosigning oh I thought they were going from the photograph and saying if the platform is gonna do to me what it's done to this man and I don't want it and hey it could have been a bit of that there was a lot of writing about that so So, you know, we didn't even scratch the surface. All right, well, what if- I mean, imagine if you updated it with a photo of him now.

This is CISO eight years later. Okay. So that's pretty huge. So there is actually a class action lawsuit of everybody that had a CISO account and maybe would have gotten a CISO account. I think that's 15 people. 15 people.

That's a lot of people. I did get a letter in the mail that said, hey, you might've had a Cecil count. Yeah, so. You wanna join this class, I just love you. So sort of we're counting like everybody that has ever taken a UCB class or has considered taking a UCB class.

So it's a lot of people, unfortunately. That's a lot of white people. Anybody who is there to watch Shrink. Yeah, exactly. So it really, it is gonna be $8 million per person. They're not getting people who've watched Shrinking, are they? Oy, oy, oy, that's just a small. They've been included in preliminary discussions.

We'll see if that pans out. Anybody named Brian is gonna be included in this. So if you own a flannel shirt, you can be compensated. What are they asking for? So I was really able to do some good work on this, and it's either going to be $8 million per person or Scott. And I'm just saying, you really need to consider this a sincere thank you.

There is not enough money in the bank. All right. A sincere thank you. OK. Sorry. All right. A sincere thank you to me for doing the work and a sincere apology.

Two things they want me to thank you? Well, they think it would be nice if you did every once in a while. They think or you think? Well, I'm just saying a lot of people think it would be nice if you said that you're gonna be everyone's friend. Are you part of this class action lawsuit?

Do you not see the amount of flannel I'm wearing right now? Oh my God. All right, look, I have to, if anyone out there is listening. He's getting down on his knees. Oh my God, look at those. Oh, his mouth is opening wide. Whoa, he's putting his arms behind his face.

He's unzipping the wall? He's taking down his sweats. He's got a corn top pie. Why is he wearing all sweats? He's wearing a his sweats. He's got a corn pie pie. Why is he wearing all sweats? He's all wearing a full sweatsuit. A juicy, juicy sweat suit. It's a sweatsuit wetsuit. He's unzipping his juicy couture sweat cap.

He put on a juicy couture sweat hat. I mean, it makes sense if we're all sweating so much in here. Thank you, Rube Jontoni. I turned the lights off 10 minutes ago. This guy's still sweating his little tail off. Look at him. He's taking off his platform crocs. Can I get you this?

It's like broadcast news level. Did you get stuff another dollar in my mouth? You can see he set his ego aside. Something's coming. He's undoing his rhinestone collar. What's he going to do with that headband with the bow? All right. Wiping his makeup.

Wow. He's moving on earrings. I've never seen him this raw and vulnerable. He's curling his eyelash. This is my Mrs. Doubtfire outfit. There's a single tear rolling down his face. He's putting on the Lenny Kravitz scarf. He's getting tangled. And he's trying to rip his pants open.

He's tangled in the scarfuff and he's really struggling. It's getting longer. It looks like the one Mark wears in Red. Pulling up that whale tail. Okay, look, if you're listening. He's putting on a boot. He's putting on the boot from when he broke his leg. He's bouncing around on his good foot.

He's putting it on and off like he's jerking off his broken foot. He's wearing a diaper. Wait, he is wearing broken foot? Wait, he is wearing a diaper, look! Oh my God! He is wearing a diaper! He's wearing a pull-up! Sorry, Hoover. Where did that Boca-Shaw necklace go from?

Look, if you're out there listening and you're part of the class action lawsuit, I just wanna say, call my accountant, baby, we're dipping into the Creek Slam sit record money. I know that's supposed to be Harris's, but I'm gonna pay off everyone with it. Call my accountant baby we're dipping into the Creek Slam sit record money I know that's supposed to be Harris's but I'm gonna pay off everyone with it. Wow. You all get eight million dollars enjoy it. So if you consider that an apology please go find Scott's Tumblr please go down to 2016 December 22nd and

reblog either in a quote a quote reblog or regular reblog. Is this still uplog. It is. As of this morning, November 9th. Go take a look. Go ahead and reblog that. Let us know whether or not you accept Scott's apology or you will be taking the money. They took away all the porn, but they said, let's leave one disgusting thing up. I can't believe I didn't mention his long French manicure.

That's always there. All right, Terry. End his fresh blowout. Thanks so much. We're gonna see you next year, I hope. You look gorgeous. Hey, let's hope not. Let's hope I'm dead by then.

Okay, well we need- And then Terry, I'll see you soon. I'll see you soon for holiday dinner. Okay, and thank you so much for the invite. My daughter and the horse and the horse baby are so excited. I have so much room, because I also, like of course,

I have Christmas dinner with horses. So I'm so glad two I have so much room, cause I also like, of course, I have Christmas dinner with horses. So I'm so glad two more horses is nothing. Okay, you are a good one. Oh yeah. All right, well we need to take a break. Thank you so much, Terri. Ho ho, are you- I gotta go go!

Oh no, wake me up before then. Wake me up before I ho ho, cause I'm not jizzing on any snow snow. All right, ho ho, we'll see you later. I love you, everyone. All right, we're gonna come right back though with even more guests, if you can believe it. We'll be right back with more Comedy Bang Bang after this.

Yeah. Comedy Bang Bang, we're back. Jason Manzoukas is here, of course. The Haenong Man himself, the holiday Haenong Man is here. We heard a beautiful holiday Haenong Man song earlier that will now become baked into every Christmas episode. Of course, and I hope that we sing it to each other every time we see each other from now on.

And we must remember it now, right? Of course. And, oh God, I already forgot if we can imagine. We also have Hoover Persona is here. Happy holidays to one and all. You don't sound sincere when you say also have Hoover Personae is here. Happy holidays to one and all. You don't sound sincere when you say that. Hoover Personae is fading. If you're telling me I don't sound sincere

from a deli room, that's a rave. We also have Tony Sony is here. Scott, I just wanna say, I didn't compliment you on your outfit, you look absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much. All the time you took, I just want you to know, we see it when you were ever, you look absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much. All the time you took, I just want you to know, we see it, we recognize it, you look fucking amazing. Thank you, I feel seen.

Thank you so much for that. You're so welcome. That's wonderful. We also have, of course, Room Tone Tony. That's right. Say it ain't come, your jeez is a heartbreaker. Wow, all right. We have to get to our next guest.

Never spoken to this gentleman before. He's a Reddit user. Please welcome Papa Mia. Hi, Scott. Hi, Papa. Is that Papa or Papa Mia is your full name? Whatever you prefer, whatever rolls off the tongue for you. And you'd prefer to be anonymous.

You don't wanna give us your real name. Yeah, yeah. This is your internet. I'm talking about some personal stuff today, and so I've tried to remain anonymous for me, but also for all the people I'm speaking about. Oh, got it. Okay, great.

This is Hoover Persone, by the way. Oh, nice to meet you, Hoover. Yeah. He's checking his watch, checking his Apple Watch. Yeah, are you getting a message on your Apple Watch? What's happening? This is an Apple Watch. Oh no, what is it?

It's just a little cartoon I keep on my wrist. I look at it and I wish that's where I could be sometimes. You wish you were four guys sitting around a fire and one of them is saying this guy just uttered a discouraging word? Exactly. I wish I was in Gary Larsen's Farsight. Oh man.

Cow tools. It's kinda like right now, you know, we're a bunch of guys sitting around the table. Yeah, we were just bros being bros. Absolutely bros. Yeah, just bro-ing out. I love that. Put our dicks on the table.

That's actually perfect for me. Not the dicks on the table part, but if that makes you comfortable. Who wouldn't be comfortable? It's funny to have to fully turn to find a voice every time. Every time I'm like, okay, I'm facing this way and then the voice conjures me around. You don't have to turn around to address them.

That's what the headphones are for, deer. Oh. Deer. How have we gone this long before a deer? So Papo, you're on Reddit and you. Well, I'm just so glad to be around so many trusted, you know, people here because I wanted to come on the show because I do a lot of ask me any things on Reddit.

AMAs they say. But more so am I the assholes on Reddit. Oh, A-I-T-A. H. They use the H. They put an H in there? They put the H in there. Why? Capital H for that hole.

Exactly why. Big as your fucking head. Is asshole two words, technically? Well, when they bleep, in the 90s, when they would bleep it in movies, like at the end of I Come in Peace and the guy says you leave in peace, his asshole, they would always bleep the hole part,

but not the ass part. Well, of course, that movie. We know, we all know that. Yeah. You know I Come in Peace. You didn't even have to finish that the ass part. Well of course, that movie. We all know that one. Yeah. You know I come in peace. You didn't even have to finish that. I mean like, yeah, no duh. No shit, but like answer the question. Come on, Papamia.

So you believe you're some sort of asshole? He's an alien and he's at the end, he's saying I come in peace. It's the name of the movie also. Sure, sure. And they finally destroy him and they explode him. The guy, the alien in I come in peace. Is Alien played by an actor that we know?

It might be Chris, it might be Chris, who's Highlander? Did you say this? Lambare, Christopher Lambare? Did you say this at the end of the movie? Yeah. So this is a spoiler. He waits until the very end to say I come in peace. But they said, let's make that the title. Yeah. Well, I don't remember if they say it a come in peace. But they said, let's make that the title.

Well, I don't remember if they say it a lot in the movie. I think they wanted people to wait. That's why you go to movies, right, is to hear the title. And I've left so many movies early. JFK, woo! Then you walk right out. Yeah. So what, you think you're some sort of asshole.

Well, I don't know, you know, I, sometimes in my relationship, we get into arguments and fights and I go to Reddit, but those are anonymous people and I want to look some people face to face and read my posts and just see if you can advise me on some of the stuff I'm going through. We'll give it to you straight. Great. Especially Hoover over here. I'm looking back. You may not like what I have to say. That's okay. I'm willing to hear the truth from you all. Am I the asshole?

This is a post I wrote. Oh, there's more. Am I the asshole for insulting my girlfriend's cooking? I, male 33, have been with my girlfriend, female 67, for one year. Now hold on. Ha ha ha. Who said hold on?

Oh me, but yeah, keep going. I was just reacting. Let's call her Garla. Um, my girlfriend, Garla takes very good care of me though. I am the sole provider for our household literally and figuratively. I make all the money and I cook for my girlfriend. She loves filet of sole, which I prepare. These guys are just masters of benmanship. My lovely girlfriend does so much to take care of me. I'm talking washing my clothes, soothing my fragile eagle after a tough day.

Oh, and she's no- Is it legal to own an eagle? A fragile one at that? Are you a veterinarian? E-G-O, like id-ego. Oh, I see. Got it. I don't own an eagle. Super eagle.

Yes, one of the. Id-ego, it's super eagle. Great. Anywho, she does so much for me, all those things, and soothing my fragile ego after a tough day. Oh, and she's no stranger to some experimentation in the sack. Wait, that's a weird O. Oh, and she's no stranger to some experimentation in the sack.

Wait, that's a weird oh. Oh, and she's no stranger, like as if it just occurred to the writer. Oh. Oh. Oh, just split my mind. Oh, let me lead with that. Oh, I do that all the time, like in an email or a text,

I'll like say something and be like, sorry, this was such a long message. Instead of just editing it down, I'll apologize for all the reading after that people had to do. Got it, okay, got it. And I'll apologize for all the reading after that. Got it. Okay, got it. And then it's like they were there with me.

Anywho, last night my girlfriend made dinner, let's call it bazanya, and it was not great. I'm trying to keep her anonymous. The noodles were hard. She replaced one of the ingredients with ketchup, and instead of ground beef, she used whole potatoes. I did my best to act polite and eat it, but when she noticed I didn't clean my plate like normal, she got mad. So am I the asshole?

Well, I mean, my first question is, because this might be the presumption of the person writing this letter, or this whatever, this post, is that might be bazanye. Have you had bazanye? Have you ever had bazanye before? That's a dish that might be served with whole potatoes and maybe ketchup.

That is an interesting take. This is a post that I personally wrote. Got it. He's trying to protect the- I'm trying to protect the anonymity of my wife. Your girlfriend or your wife didn't call it bazanye. But you're also trying to protect the identity of lasagna? Yeah, that's what's confusing me.

I'm gonna tell you something right now. I have made lasagna before. There is a recipe for it. Oh, so, okay, so that must have been my post. You are the asshole. You are the asshole. That's why all the comments on my post were, that's Bizzania.

Yep, that's Bizzania. You're the asshole, that's Bazzania. That's Bazzania. Hey, can I ask you a question? Like those commercials for Olive Garden. Oh, that's Bazzania. When you hear that's Bazzania. Yeah, and that was originally what they said on Big Bang Theory.

Instead of Bazinga? Instead of Bazinga, it was Bazzania. He mispronounced it. Yep, but Big Bazzania came after them and said, nope, nope, nope. The kiddies used to be called Bazzania. Hey, can you 180 turn back to me? I got a question for you.

How is she, how is she? I am in a neck brace, but yeah, I'll do my best. Turn around like Batman. How is she experimental in the bedroom and how is that related to what you were just talking about? Oh, I just thought I would give some background on history, you know, a little color so people don't know. Honestly, it just felt like you wanted to sneak that in.

You kind of just wanted to let us know. Now that I know it's about you, that seems like an open door you're waiting for all of us to walk through. What are the experiments she's doing? Oh, you know when you're spooning and your bodies get close to each other? Sure.

If you do it right. How do you spoon when your bodies are far apart? I guess you're like, you know, I can't think of one. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Now, Papamia, are you okay?

No, I get it. I mean, it probably doesn't exist. It's probably not a real thing. I think spooning is when you're close. I've never seen anyone that flustered in my entire life. It must be how they spoon. Trying to panic, make eye contact with everyone in the room. God, it's got to be, gotta be hurting the neck race.

I think that's because we spooned with her. Do you guys have any, like I drank the whole pitcher of water already. Does anybody have any water I can use here? No, we don't have any more water. Sorry. Water? Well, but yeah, so sometimes we'll spoon and I'll get aroused during the spooning. And she won't shove me off the bed or slap my hard thingy. She won't slap you in the penis.

Or slap me in the penis. And that's experiment. That's experiment. Hawk Tua slap me on the penis. Wait. Okay, wait. Hawk Tua, yeah. Why are you making such aggressive eye contact

with everyone? Yeah. Looking around like weird, safe. No offense, Skyfall. Trying to find an ally. He's doing this, he's doing emoji this guy. Like, am I right? What the hell love to be allies. Angels, I got you, man. I got you. You got it, SOTY SOTY SOTY. SOTY SOTY knows about Angela.

I got you. I know exactly what you're talking about. But I love my wife very much, and I think that's why that's specific with the marriage. Oh, you lost me. I don't fucking want my wife, no. Do you have a gumar? Do you have a girlfriend? Side piece?

Oh, I would. Mistress? Mistress? I would. I would. I would. I would.'s why that's specific. Oh, you lost me. I don't fucking want my wife. No. Do you have a gumar? Do you have a girlfriend? A side piece? Oh, I would not dare. I would not dare.

Tony Sony, how do you feel about that? That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. You need a gumar immediately. That's what your problems are stemming from. My understanding is you like marry women who look nothing like your mom and then all your gumars look exactly like your mom but 30 years younger, right? Yeah, you nailed it, yeah, exactly. It's just hard to find women that look like my mom,

I guess. What does she look like? Have you seen Weird Science? No, shit. No. Okay, well look up Bill Paxton at the end of this. I was gonna say that. It's gotta be Jack, right? All right.

I'm glad I got Unity on, right? All right. I've got to find some, I've got to get Unity on one movie with somebody here. Yeah. Where am I? The end of one movie. Yeah, both ends of movies. You only watching ends of movies? Yeah, that's where they say the name usually.

Yeah. At the beginning of Weird Science, they sing it at the beginning. This is some weird science. Yes. Do you have another, am I the asshole? I think you might be the asshole in that one. Yeah, you are the asshole in that.

I hate to hear it, but I will apologize to my wife. Do you have another one though? Am I the asshole for priorit one. Yeah, you are the asshole in that. I hate to hear it, but I will apologize to my wife. Do you have another one, though? Am I the asshole for prioritizing video games over my girlfriend's son? I, male 33, need some advice desperately. My girlfriend, female 67, let's call her Garla, and I have a very happy relationship. She makes me laugh.

We love all the same movies, parentheses, where my two guns head's at, and she almost always. What is two guns? I haven't heard of any of these movies. Wait, two guns is a Denzel Mark Wahlberg movie. Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg is two guys who you think they're bad guys at the beginning, but it turns out they're both secretly working

for the government, and they have to take on, they have to take on a bad guy played by the guy from Battlestar Galactica. Okay from a Battlestar Galactica. Which Battlestar Galactica? The new one. Oh, okay. I was going to say Lauren Green. It's not enough guns, I have to say. Richard Hatch?

You'll be disappointed when they say the title then. These are two guns. Walk this way. That's the song that plays over the credits. Wow. You have such recall that plays over the credits. Wow. You have such recall for the end of movies. If you only watch the ends, you can remember. Total ending recall.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Where was I? Oh, I've always said movies parentheses where my two guns heads at. She almost always flushes the toilet after number twos.

Oh, and when it comes to the bedroom, nothing is off limits. However, now in the post, in the post, how is that a size? How is that conveyed? Is that italicized? Is it smaller font? I use the gentle effect that the iPhone text messages.

Yeah, so it kind of comes in big. I love that. So you're just like, nothing's off limits. That's a great delivery of that, thank you. You were describing the slam effect. Yeah, oh. Not the whisper, I think you want the whisper. Ken Burns effect on that.

You're right, I'm sorry, I apologize. Can you send texts with Ken Burns effects? Yes, exactly. So hard to read them. They all sound like Peter Coyote. However, my girlfriend wants me to spend more time with her son, Mayel 33. Let's call him John with an H.

I feel that I spend quite a bit of time with John. So this person's name is John without an H, is that what you're saying? I want to remain a non, I spoke for them and myself. I feel that I spend quite a bit of time with John. He shows me his extensive sword collection. I still let him wrestle me even though I've never won and last time he chipped my tooth on a lifestyle

statue of Johnny Depp as Tonto in The Lone Ranger. After an exhausting work day, I just want to play an hour of video games. But Garla insists that if I don't spend that time listening to Jon's base practice, he almost has the entire 30 first 30 seconds of man in box by Alison chains. Then John won't get a full night's sleep and he'll be too tired. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. You know, my art at this point, wow. Oh, movie. Um, so tell me, I'm mighty asshole. That's going to be, it's complicated.

Where's this statue located? The one of Johnny Depp. Yes. Life size. In the half bathroom. Whose statue is it? Is it yours? Does it belong to?

Yeah. No, it's her son's. Yeah. Oh, it's John. Why is it in the half bath? Why is it in the half bath? I mean, half baths are pretty small. That's my argument.

Yeah. I don't know why it's in there and I don't know why we're wrestling. Is the half bath the place that she decides to not flush her number twos? Cause you said almost always flushes the number twos and I'm trying to think, what's the logic behind it? I feel like it's so hard to find out if I'm the asshole. You guys get so caught up on all these extraneous detail. Go ahead.

How many rings and scarves and eyeliners Johnny Depp wear in the picture? Oh, in the, well, yeah, it is a statue of him, but then he won't let you buy it unless you can cover it in rings and scarves and he looks like late era Aerosmith guy. Okay, good, yeah, that's what I want to hear. So it's a life-size Johnny Depp statue

in a half bathroom where sometimes there's shit in the toilet. Who's life, by the way? When you say life size, who's life? Whose life is it anyway? Because if it's a bug's life, if it's a bug's life, it's tiny. Oh no. And it is Johnny Dep as Tonto,

but you still put rings and scarves on. You're supposed to put, you have to legally put rings and scarves on. I think what we're all saying is you're the asshole. Yeah, I think you're the asshole. Cato, it's like an equation. Shit, okay. Sorry.

Okay. Let the wife shit in the toilet and leave it there. Yeah. Get over it. That's what Johnny Depp wants, he wants to look at it, just like the shit that was on his bed. Exactly. He loves this.

And you said nothing is off limits in the bedroom. I have to, I really don't want to talk about it, but I mean nothing. Okay, wow. Kissing, smooching, snogging. Snogging, all right. Wow. So not just French kissing, but British kissing?

British kissing. Wow. British kissing, that's only with the teeth, isn't it? Sorry that we came down so hard on you. Do you have another one or? I don't have another Am I the Asshole because I got ashamed from those, but I do, I mean, I can find another post I wrote

just on Reddit. I hope it resets Garla for a third time. Okay, how can I shift this really quickly? How old are you, Papamiya? 33. Male 33. So the same age as Gararlath's son, John. Yes, yes.

Jesus Christ, when he died. Oh no. Wait, spoilers? I'm so sorry. Oh no, are you sorry? Are you midway through the Bible? I haven't gotten to the part where they say the title yet,

so I'm still reading it. Oh, that comes in Revelations. Oh, what a revelation. Yeah. All right, let me just scroll here. This is my comment on an Ask Me Anything from John Stamos. Comment on the John Stamos Ask Me Anything. What are you asking, John?

Is it just a comment or are you asking him stuff? No, just love your work on the Beach Boys. Love the Beach Boys. Could I get- Wait, Stamos is your favorite Beach Boy? I guess, I mean, well, it's Stamos and then the kind of unreleased tapes that Manson gave them. But yeah, no. Okay, yeah.

Okay, the stuff that turned into the Dennis Wilson song. Yes, right before he sadly died. As long as you're not a big Mike Lovehead. No, no, I'm more like Mike Hate. Why are you looking at all of us again? I don't want this multi-contact. God, you're cr printing your neck so much. Your fucking neck brace is starting to get bloody

for some reason. The neck brace is because I always have to look for approval from people, so I straighten my neck. I straighten my neck on a flight where I was right in the middle. You've broken skin under there, so bad. Jeez. We gotta get you in here with Bob Dookie sometime.

You guys got a lot of ailments. All my ailments are related to just making eye contact with people. All right, what is this? All right, here we go. Our aquariums. Help, Japanese rice fish being aggressive. I, male33, am a proud owner of an aquarium. Recently, my Japanese rice fish, Fish, one month,

let's call him Bilbo Baggins, began showing. What's his actual name then? Wait, I think I know this. It's Bill. Lives in a house with Carla. Oh my God. Leave it. He began showing signs of aggression.

He's territorial over food. He's bullying my coy and he's showing signs of casual racism. I've checked nitrogen levels and they're all normal. Last weekend, my girlfriend, female 67, let's call her Darla. Wait, Darla? Oh, this is a different person. Now this is interesting.

Who's Darla? Maybe it's Carla? Met up with my ex- Marla Maples? Is it Marla Maples? Bleep it, please bleep it. Bleep it, bleep it. Beep.

She met up with my ex-wife, female, age unknown. Let's call her Dennis. And they got into an argument. I'm really confused now. Maybe Denise? Bleep it. They got into an argument about the fact that even though Dennis and I are divorced,

she still lets me use her login for a certain app. Let's call it Disney Minus. Okay, this one I think I know. To watch my favorite movie. I bet it's Peacock. D2 Mighty Ducks starring, let's call him Emilio Sheen. How does it end? It turns out the mean guy has a kid in a wheelchair,

so that's why he's mean. I think it actually, I think it ends with all of them sitting around a fire singing, we are the champions of the greatest world. But I know that's just a guess. If you were writing it, if it was me and you leave in pieces, asshole. Wow. Anyway, I'm worried that their argument made my fish aggressive. Any solutions would be great. Thank you.

The solutions to the fish being racist? Yeah, casually. I don't know that we have any solutions for this particular one, but you do sound like the asshole. You said you checked the nitrogen levels. Is an excess of nitrogen make people racist? Is that like a fix?

Is that, can we do something? Can we just take nitrogen out of the world? We have to alert the Fast and Furious franchise. Oh, wow. Yeah. Because they're like full of it. Those nausea canisters. Oh my gosh. What would you alert them about?

What would you say to them? I would say, hey, all that nitro is making dom. I don't know if nitrous oxide is the same as nitrogen. I mean, some of us don't understand. I mean, you have to admit they have the first four letters. God, I believe. Room Tone Tony was saying during the break that he has a chemical engineering degree. They're the same as nitrogen. I mean, it's gonna be stone understand. I mean, you have to admit they have the first four letters. You gotta believe me. Room Tone Tony was saying during the break

that he has a chemical engineering degree. I did. Yeah. I don't really use it. Why you never use it? I don't really use it. I kinda just put up lights, put up like a boat. Can I ask a question?

Yeah, please do. What are the names? Big gray in there. What are the names of the other characters in the Fast and the Furious franchise? Well, of course you got Dom. We all love him. You've got Letty, of course. Oh, Letty. Yes.

You've got Han. You've got Brian. RIP. Thank you for picking up the slack with me, because I may have only known Dom. You've got Hobbs and Shaw. You've got Han. Hobbs and Shaw! You've got Han and getting justice for him. You've got Giselle. You've got Giselle. RIP, a legend, but she's back, baby.

She's back. Who's the rock again? Hobbs. Hobbs, oh yeah. And we've got the Shaw brothers and sister and mother. Now the whole Shaw family is in the mix. Owen Shaw, Deckard Shaw. And you mentioned Brian.

There's also a baby Brian. There's baby Brian. Oh, that's right. And the sister. And now let's name the black characters. Oh. Well, Dom is multiracial. Oh, that's right. And the sister. And now let's name the black characters. Okay. Well, Dom is multiracial. That's true. That's the name of his production company.

That's true. I forgot. That's insane. Well, Papa Mia, what's your actual name? Well, let's call me... Why are you looking at the paper? He peeked down at the paper. Did you write it down in your bird notebook?

David Shevelle. David Shevelle. David Shevelle. David Shevelle. Let's call me, why are you looking at the paper? Did you write it down in your bird notebook? David Shevel. David Shevel. David Shevel. Shovel. Shovel. Shovel.

So David Chevelle? Well. He didn't say beef. Well, I guess that is. That's actually it. Well, I'm so sorry that we figured out that you're the asshole. No, I have to-

No kind of recourse for your fish here. I just gotta go home and apologize to- And I know you didn't mention this in the fish post, but it sounds to me like Darla is a freak in the sheets. What's her real name? Her real name, Garlic? Yeah, Garlic, probably. Fuck, bleep that, bleep that.

Garlic, 67, horny. Well, Papamia, thank you so much for coming. Unfortunately, we are running out of time with your segment. We need to move on to our next guest. I'm fine, I read them all. You read them all? Yeah, yeah. Fantastic, all right. He read it?

Read it. Whoa! Speaking of read it, our next guest is an author whose books I have not read, but I've talked to her once in Glasgow, I believe. Please welcome back to the show. We have, of course, Elsbeth Connors. Elsbeth Connors.

Yes. Hi, Scott. Hi, everybody. Hi, Elsbeth. Hi. Hi, everybody. Hi. Hello.

I'm currently absolutely loving the TV show, Elsbeth, and that's the first time I've met an Elsbeth, so this is the second. What a delight. Oh, well, that's great. Yeah, there's two of us at least. I love it. One of them a fictional character, of course,

and one real life you. That's right. Well, there's two of us at least in some manner of using the name. Yes, yes. Elisabeth, now you're an author, you write a very particular- Romantic, Scott? Yes, genre, romantic.

Romantic, Scott, the beautiful marriage of sexy scenes and high fantasy. That's right, and this is a good marriage. This is not a- Oh, it's a beautiful marriage of sexy scenes and high fantasy. That's right, this is a good marriage. This is not a- Oh, it's a beautiful marriage. A marriage where everyone's being cold to each other. No, no, this is a loving marriage between dragons and dragons having sex. What are some of the names of your books,

if you don't mind me asking? Oh no, I would love, so my series is called A Kingdom of Whispers and Sighs. Oh, and that's S-I-Z-E or? No, S-I-G-H-S. Oh, okay. Sighs. Ah, thank you so much.

Whispers and sighs. Whispers. Whispers and sighs. That's right, a kingdom of whispers and sighs. Kingdom. Right? Whispers. Right?

Sighs. Have you thought about having Scott do the audio book? I think that would be great. Actually, that would be great. Oh, I would love that, yeah. Could you read about the water prince? I guess so, what's the water prince up to? Well, that's what, yes, that's what my story's about,

a mortal girl who falls in love with a water prince. With a water prince, that's right, yes. Yes, and they have to, but actually, right now, I've written a holiday novella. It's disconnected from the kingdom of whispers and sighs. What, this is new for you? Yes, yes. Ooh, and holiday themed, I love that.

That's right, that's right. This is incredible, okay. So this is. Ooh, and holiday themed. I love that. That's right. This is incredible. So this is a kingdom of Holly and Ivy. Okay. Interesting. And it follows, it follows. It follows.

It follows. Have you seen that? No, too scary. What about you, Papamio? Yeah, how does it end? It follows. Yeah, literally. Just walking around in the end.

So this follows what now? The characters of? This is the kingdom of Holly and the kingdom of Ivy. They're Ivy nymphs and warring families for generations and how they make love on the evening of tinsel. Oh wow. So it's got a little Romeo and Juliet in there, a little warring families.

Absolutely, yes, yes. Deep lore and they all, you might have known, I talk to you a lot about what some of my compatriots are doing in the romanticist space. How in Dragon's Fuck can you feel it? Okay, so in this world, when Snowflakes Fuck, they feel it. Wow. Okay.

Yes, so they're paired, all of the Ivy and Holly nymphs are paired to snowflurries, So they're snowflurry warriors. And when they're snowflurries, fuck, they feel it. And snow, and we all know snowflakes are complete. Each and every one of them is totally unique. That's right. Yeah. Wow. So actually, unlike pairing with a dragon,

like in my friend's work, Fourth Wing, unlike pairing with a dragon, when you pair with a snowflake, it's a momentary burst of power. Okay. And then you have to repair all the time to a new snowflake. That's true. And when they fuck, they all the time to a new snowflake. And

when they fuck, they feel it. Oh, okay. Yeah. So that's important. Is a snowball an orgy? Is a snowball an orgy? Great question. Yes. Wow. And a snowman, I can't even talk about. When snowflakes fuck, does it warm them up and do they, do they thus melt and that's the energy that is produced. Are you familiar with I believe orgasm in French means tiny death. This is the same idea. So they fucking immediately die. That's right. And then it's over. It's beautiful. Yeah. Wow. That's why you got a hedge.

That's right. Thank you Tony. Tony's over there like really manspreading. Tony's over there like really manspreading. He's taking up like three chairs. Do you read any, do you read any Romantic Tony? Oh absolutely. Me and my grandma we read everything together. That's great. Maybe listen to the audiobook on long drives. Will do, yeah. Hell yeah. I'm absolutely, I'm fucking hard right now.

I love reading softcore pornography at the airport. Yes, that's my favorite thing to hear from fans is that they do get nervous when they read my work in public. At the airport, listening in a grocery store, on a jog where suddenly you have to stop. Yeah. Because it's too horny, Scott.

People like buying other things like Playboy magazines and putting them in front of the books. Yes, they're like, you can't know that I'm reading Akatar. Instead, I'm looking at this old nudie magazine. It's better, it's a Playboy. Wow, so how's it, I mean, this is just released? It's just released, you know, I don't know if you know this,

but we write a ton of books in the Romanticy space. We're always turning them out. So I started this three weeks ago and it's already on the New York Times bestseller. Yes, it started on TikTok. I started just reading passages on TikTok, got a quick publishing deal, now it's out. So you can buy a kingdom of Holly and Ivy,

the story of the Holly and Ivy nymphs who pair with snowflake flurries and when the snowflakes fuck, they feel it. That's the subtitle. Yep. Wow. Okay. And does this story, cause I feel like a lot of these larger stories

are interconnected. Does this end up connected to your main series? Or is this totally separate? Great question. Is this a good jumping on point for new people? Or is this? Oh, great question. She's about to answer your question.

Great question, I love it. But shut the fuck up. I love the whole thing. But what I'm asking, but what I wanna know. Keep going, more, more, more. Oh my God, I'm gonna cum. Stop it.

Slow down, Tony, Tony. Now slow down, now slow down. Now what if instead I gave you the answer like this. So yes, because what is water, but one part of the molecules that also make snow? I gotta go. Oh my God. I gotta go. Holy shit.

So yes, I would say if you're new to my work, if you haven't read any of the books in the Kingdom of Whispers and Sighs, you could jump on to read a Kingdom of Holly and Ivy, and yes, eventually the worlds will connect. Thank you, great question. I know I'm just a guest here, but I have to say I'm incredibly upset.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Why, what's going on? What's going on? How could I have a Mia? But incredibly upset. Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Why, what's going on? What's going on? How could I have a Mia? But examine why you're upset because probably you're an asshole. Yeah. We'll see, am I the asshole?

Okay. Books like this create unrealistic expectations for the readers that they're going to get some deep pleasure from ice, snow, things outside of their marriage because they're not getting it within their marriage and then they have these fantasies that they bring into the bedroom

and other people can't live on. Is Darla reading those books? Garlic. Let me ask you this, Papamio? She's reading garlic? Is garlic reading? What's your name, Nick Papagiorgio? Papa, Papa Mia is my Reddit name.

Papamia, Papamia. Now when garlic comes to you and says, hey, wouldn't it be fun if you and I pretended to be Holly and Ivy, that's intimidating for you? Incredibly, yeah, yeah, because I have to read the whole book and learn all the backstory. This one's a novella. Okay, how long is that?

It's only 46 pages. And you can listen to it. And you can listen to it on 1.5. Okay, okay. Is that how it's meant? Did you write it for high speeds? You can, yes, okay. Is that how it's meant? Did you write it for high speeds? You can't, yes, yes. That's how it's recorded, yes.

Okay, it's not recorded like extra slow, so when you speed it up, it's just normal speed. If you listen to it at 0.75, you're a nasty freak. You actually might be an edgelord. Yeah. But I will say sometimes I wanna listen to your books slower so that they last longer like we all hope we could.

That's right could last longer. That's right. And I'm open to that. You play these books at whatever speed and I do prefer you play them. Because if you read them too closely, you'll think that's a weird syntax choice. But if you listen to them, oh very important.

And you're one of those authors who reads the book first before writing it. That's right. And then it's just transcribed. That's right, yes. You do the audio book first. That's right. I start on TikTok by just saying, Holly woke up that morning,

she knew there was something wrong in the air. Fuck, I gotta go, I gotta go. I have a question. I have a question. Thank God Ho-Ho isn't here. From one writer to another, are any of your romantic books Romana Cleves? Oh God.

He loves Romana Cleves, I don't know what to say. I gotta say, I don't know what that means. So Finley Veiled's version of a real life. Oh. Where you change the names. Oh. Well I would say that most of us are drawn from our own life, years of repression

and then finally feeling free. So in that way, yes, I think most romantic authors, they bring a lot of their personal life into their stories, imagining a world where everyone's a sexy little freak instead of a repressed, formerly religious woman. Now let me ask you this, are you working on anything for the New Year's holiday? Cause I know that's the next one.

Oh, shall we do one right now? Yeah, I think we, I think maybe we should. Go ahead and record the audio. Let's see, let's see. Because I know that's the next one. Oh, shall we do one right now? Let's see, let's see. My main story is about a water print. This is about snow flurries and snowflakes that you compare with and when they fuck you feel it. So it seems like perhaps for New Year's I need something in steam or steam. Oh, they're all vaping. They're all vaping. That's vapor. Oh, they're all vaping. They're all vaping. A kingdom of vape and steam. I'm gonna tell you, I'm already fucking hard with this. But maybe also like some bubbles from champagne. Oh, that's perfect. I like that. I love effervescence. The clock was approaching midnight.

The champagne bottle had condensation on its side, its drips dripping down the edge of the bottle. The cork was about to burst when it did vapors extended into the air, falling on everyone's noses, making them sneeze. Wow. A sneeze is but a tiny organ. That's what they say. It's incredible. Tony, Tony, Tony, Tony did Tony's shirt come off? Give me a pizza, I gotta put my dick in it,

get rid of my fucking boner. Coming this New Year's, a kingdom of vapor and steam. Wow. A New Year's novella. Wow. Wow. When the vapor fucks, you feel it. Makes sense. Incredible, well this is, I mean, it's an honor to have you here, this is-

Well, thank you, yeah. I'm happy, I love the holiday season. I'm glad you're happy. Yeah, I mean it's an honor to have you here, this is a. Well thank you, yeah, I'm happy, I love the holiday season. I'm glad you're happy. Yeah, I get to write a sexy book and then go back to taking care of my four children. You've had sex, right? Yes, I have four children.

You could have adopted. Sure, I have a bunch of children and I've had a bunch of sex. A bunch, really? Yes, now, now that I'm living my new life. Okay, cool. Can I ask you a question? Of course.

Is anything off limits in the bedroom? life. Okay, cool. Can I ask you a question? Of course. Is anything off limits in the bedroom? Oh. Well, I don't know. I suppose not. No, I don't think so, as long as everyone's down. You like to experiment? That's right, as long as everybody's here for the party. Let me ask you something.

You ever spooned with somebody, but they're not next to you. They're maybe at the other end of the bed. You guys are both separate spoons in different drawers. What's the furthest away from someone you've ever spooned with somebody, but they're not next to you. They're maybe at the other end of the fence. You guys are both separate spoons in different roles. What's the furthest away from someone you've ever spooned? That's interesting. Yes, I suppose.

One time while it's camping, my husband and I were only touching feet. And we went outward. I gotta go. I gotta go. Ah. Well guys, we have to get to our next guest. This is a lot of new people on this show today.

This is incredible. We've never spoken to this gentleman before. Please welcome Glenn. You're a school teacher. Yes, that's right, Scott. Thank you. School teacher, Glenn. A school teacher, yes. My name is Glenn and that's my occupation.

Okay. What subject, Glenn? I'm a fifth grade teacher, so I teach all the general subjects. So we're talking art. I actually don't teach art. There's a different art teacher. Gym, gym.

No, I don't do gym. Music? No, there's actually another. Spanish? We don't do Spanish in my elementary school, so I don't do any of those. I don't do art. So you don't do all, yeah, philosophy.

Do you serve them lunch in the lunch area? no art history i don't women's studies no women's studies photography uh no we don't cover culinary arts not a not a wif African American studies no we can't even don't do cryptozoology you seem like you don't teach very much. Stand up, you do stand up. Don't teach stand up comedy to my- Improv 101? No, I don't teach Improv 101. Podcast, podcast.

I gotta say, your demeanor, I really think that I could take Improv 101. I don't know where you're getting that from. He looking like an improv teacher. Yeah, he does. Fifth grade teacher, I teach reading, some basic math. Get close to that mic. Some science, reading math, science, some history.

Some history, like what? When you say some, what do you mean? Well, I mean, don't teach all, history. I mean, there's so much. But like what? Like what are you teaching? I teach some basic American history. Basic American.

Basic American, some basic world history. But like American cheese. Basic history though, not like complicated history. Nothing complicated. Like what, like if I left your class after a year, what would I know? You'd be ready for sixth grade, Scott. You'd be, you would know about George Washington

and our founding fathers. Like what? Like, I think back on why would I teach? We teach, you know, that America was breaking away from the monarchy and we didn't want kings. We wanted to keep. But what about George Washington? You mentioned him, what about him?

We don't spend a ton of time. He's the first president and we didn't want kings. We wanted to keep. But what about George Washington? You mentioned him, what about him? We don't spend a ton of time. He's the first president and he never told a lie. That's one thing we teach him. Come on, tell me more about it. According to him. I wanna know everything. That's all you do.

What about what he liked to eat for breakfast? We don't get into what George Washington liked to eat for breakfast. If he fucks, do you feel it? Yeah. I, only if he fucks another president. Do you get into like, yeah. Oh, that's good.

Oh, I got a president's day novella Get ready for March, baby the tale of presidents and primaries and primus Primus the band less So why are you here? I'm just here to promote our Christmas pageant. We're having a Christmas pageant and having a little trouble. So you teach at a parochial school? It is a Catholic school. There you go.

That's correct, yeah. So we have a Christmas pageant. Christmas pageant, this is the birth of Jesus. So do you do theater? The whole, there's a little bit of acting and a little presentation of the songs. Yeah, it's very cute, very sweet. The kids come up and they sing.

The band plays a couple of songs. What's one of the songs? Jingle Bells. We open with Jingle Bells. What's the band's makeup? Is the band kids as well? Let me just check, as I definitely prepared what the band's makeup was. You would have to because otherwise...

We're not talking about kiss makeup. Yeah, yeah. So it's a pageant depicting the birth of Christ, but the first song is Gene. We start with, but it eased them in. There's a lot of religious, anti-religious, people don't want to get too preachy in these things, there's pressure from the cows.

That's the real problem in America lately. Nobody wants to get preachy. Number one problem in American society is the recitals are too preachy. How small is the baby Jesus? How small you making him? It is pretty normal size baby. Is it a doll or a kindergartner?

It is a, it's just a doll. We don't use it. Huge mistake. Yeah, cause I like. You gotta get a real baby in there. I prefer my pageants with a live Jesus. You gotta have a live. I want it live.

Will there be a camel or no? There will be two children dressed as a camel, but there'll be no real camel. Two children to equal one camel. Two humps, there's really three. There's one as the head and then one each for the humps. So really three. There's three, yes.

So you lie. Do you play Black Eyed Peas My Humps when the camel comes out? We don't play Black Eyed Peas My Humps. I think that would be good. You're having trouble selling tickets. We got some good ideas. We're having trouble selling tickets. Why are you having so much? I have no idea

We usually have some ideas. I have well, I think that I think the town has turned on us Why what happened at last juice? Well, that's just we got a little preachy I got a little preachy with the with the Christmas pride. I happen to be a devout Catholic and of course, that's just everybody You said devout. what do you like? I'm super fucking into it. Say it like me, man, I feel you. I 100% can. Yeah, like I'm-

May the sweet baby Jesus bless you till he's- I love Catholicism, I love good and evil. I'm into Satan and God. You put the ash on your head. You're into Satan. You're into Satan. I'm into Satan and God. You said I'm into Satan and God, but you put Satan first. I'm into Satan big time and I'm okay with God.

And I love the fight of dark and light. And I'm, you know, waiting for the- What's your Saint name? My Saint name is Clementine. Interesting. What's your Satan name? My Satan name is His Lord Irgisville. Can I use this?

Irgisville. Irgisville. That's interesting, sounds like a location. No, that's my Satan name. And last year at the recital, I went a little hard on, I made it a little too preachy, I got a little too strict with the religious dogma and it turned people off and this year.

Were you yelling at the kids and stuff like that? I was only at the kids and I was like, you're gonna burn in hell and you- You're yelling this at the kids in the middle of the pageants? Well, Mike Savageau didn't know his lines and I'm like, you're going to go to hell. I mean, that's true. You're lazy and slothful.

How old is Mike Savage-O? At that time, he was nine. Wow. How old is he now? He is nine and a half. Yeah, I read that kid's book. I don't know about that map. In the last year, he's only aged a half a year.

Yeah, I should say, Mike Savage-O went on a rocket ship. He went on a rocket ship? Oh, I see. He was held back. He was outside of a gravitational pull so that the time actually moved differently for him. He was on a rocket ship on a secret attempted flight to Mars. I saw Interstellar. Near light speed and it slowed down his agents. He came back and he's still only not. I'll be honest, that's so much more interesting. I don't think so. I wish we were interviewing Mike Savage. so much more interesting. I don't think so.

I don't think so. I wish we were interviewing Mike Savage-O. Can we get him on the phone? You cannot take Mike Savage-O on the phone. Can you get us to Mike Savage-O? I do not care what you have to say anymore. You've introduced the most interesting character I've ever heard on this show.

I am bad. And you're telling me? I'm not allowed to talk to Mike Savage-O. There's a lot of- Why? Restraining order? Restraining order. I screamed at him in front of his family. I screamed at his parents. I Mike Savage. There's a lot of restraining order. Restraining order. I screamed at him in front of his family. I screamed at his parents.

I said, you brazen kid is going to hell. But still kept your job. That's the Catholic school. Catholic school will not fire anybody. You get 10 strikes and you're out. How many do you have? 10. And by out, you just get shifted to a different school?

That's right. I used to teach sixth grade. After my 10th strike, I was demoted to fifth grade. So how many of your students? Best teachers are in sixth grade. The worst teachers are kindergarten. So how many of your students were on this secret trip to Mars?

There is NASA and SpaceX both recruit from my town. Can we talk to whoever's in charge of this? Absolutely not. Absolutely not. There's a secret recruiting program of the elementary school kids to go on some faster-than-light craft. I would love to hear about this just not from you.

From anyone else. From someone interesting and thoughtful. When they came back, did they seem different? Yes. Yes, they did. They seemed more enlightened. Did you ever feel like- Mike Savage was a combative kid.

When he came back, he was peaceful. He was enlightened. He hugged me. Can we send you? Can we send you on this trip? No, I refuse. I will not defy God. You refuse? I refuse. I have been asked and I say no.

Wow, oh, that's like, so you're definitely not an improv teacher. You really look like an improv teacher. Well, I don't have any knowledge of that, so I don't know how that is relevant. So tell us, I don't know, about your job. You know what I mean? Who gives a shit?

Yes, just look. Where's Savage-O? Give me Savage-O or give me death. So this year you're doing the play with these kids who all aged half a year in a year's time. Well they've moved on, I've got a new crop of kids. Last year's kids have only aged half a year. And you've been demoted.

Is the pageant only the fifth graders? It's strictly a fifth grade only pageant. Sixth graders are too jaded and the fourth graders aren't fucking good enough. Wow. Gee. What do you think the best part is? Like, it's like, oh, everyone probably assumes

it's Mary and Joseph, but if you're like, actually, it's the wise men. It's the wise men. The wise men, what do they get to do? They get the biggest monologues. The kids get to write their own monologues. They write their own. What advice would you give to Jesus in this corrupt society?

And they each come up with their own stuff, and sometimes you've had some really great stuff. If you let kids like think independently, sometimes you get rewarded with some really good stuff. And now with Savage-O, was he? Savage-O, listen. You gotta let go of Savage-O. Where's he now?

Is he, he's in sixth grade? I mean where he now is. He's in sixth grade. I mean, that was in sixth grade. And think about what he's having to do with that. But Joe has seen he's seen things. And you're saying you would refuse to see those things. You are unimaginative, uninteresting and boring. Savijo is electric. Where is he?

Savijo heard three monologues last year from the wise man and went into space with that new knowledge and came back a different person. I bet you Savagio's gonna save the Easter. That's gonna suck up there. Savagio, he's got a plan, I feel like. Well, he doesn't go by Savagio anymore. He's called the Anointed One.

So I should just say, I have to say that legally. If we say it three times, will he appear? Let's try it, let's try it. The Anointed One, the Anointed One,, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, own melody. I think this is just Glenn. I'm getting the sense that this is just Glenn like, attending to meet Savage-O. All right, so I was, so I was, so what? It's so sad. You guys are overestimating, it's so sad.

Because immediately, I'm like, how did you know? You wanted to be interesting so much that you think. I'm immediately like. You tried to convince us you were Savage-O? I would just like to remind everybody that at the beginning of this, I was a school teacher. No, you were. Soon as you started talking, I was like, this guy is absolutely no way that

Savage would come back and sing like a Catholic cancer. Yeah. You know what? That's actually a pretty good impression of Savage. What song comes after Jingle Bell? Would you slay ride a hard pivot into sleigh ride. Jingle Bell's in it. Well, it's narratively continuous. And what's on stage, Jesus, Mary and Joseph?

No one's on stage at that time. In a sleigh? No one is on stage. No, they're on their wings. They're in the witches. They're on their wings. They're angels? Wings of a queen.

Mary and Joseph are angels in your play? Everybody's an angel, because I assume they're dead. This is- Wow. You assume they're dead? Wow. I mean, they're probably dead by now. That's right.

As the author- As the present day versions of the characters. They're all dead. So this is the nativity in the present day. Yes, present, it says, it opens Bethlehem 2024. And they sing Jingle Bells. So is it like a haunted house or? And that's Jingle Bells, Jing's jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way.

Only from the wings. From the wings. From the wings. Where everyone's on their wings. And then they go into sleigh ride. And they go into sleigh ride. Still on the wings. Lights slowly coming up.

Lights are coming up during two songs. It's Hitch Black. Hitch Black. For the first two songs. Enter Savage-O. Right? Well, Savijo. Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo.

Say your prayer, Savijo. Oh, oh, oh. Savijo did play the part of Joseph last year, so he was the first to enter last year. That was a description of him. Great, let's talk to him. No, we can't. I'm not allowed to talk to him.

I've been banned by several law enforcement agencies that I'm not allowed to. Wow, I mean, the kid sounds like a fucking home run. What do you mean, several? You know what, you're overestimating, okay? Just because somebody's wife and they're like. What, are you jealous? I am jealous.

You've got to chip away at Savage-O just to elevate yourself? You're a man. You're a grown, what are you, 62? I'm 61 years old. Glenn. We can like Savage-O and you. I doubt it. man, what are you 62? I'm 61 years old. We can like Savage O and you. I doubt it.

Glenn, what do you mean when you say several law enforcement agencies? More than one, they've gone to, more than one scope of law enforcement. The DEA. Sheriffs. Interpol. Marshals.

TAE and Mike Five. The local police. The Impossible Missions Force. The Impossible Missions Force. I, the Impossible Missions Force. I do not know that they are involved. Dom and the family in The Fast and Furious. As far as I know, they're cool with me. Mr. Nobody.

No. I'm just being polite. Well, let me I wish we could talk to you. Do you? No. I'm just being polite. Well, let me just real quick plug it, okay? If anybody wants to come to the pageant, it's at Pembroke Elementary School. It's across from the prison. It is a... Across from the prison?

It's running for a three-mo. It's zoning. Is this that school for the criminally insane children? Yes. Yeah. So December 10th, 11th, and 12th, tickets are $1. That was last week No, what oh my god.
