Because God loves cookies Hey, hey, hey, everybody. My name is Doug, and I love movies.
Starting point is 00:02:00 This is Doug Lo groovy Coming to you Once again From our East Coast base The Gramercy Theater in New York City It's Sunday, November 26, 2017, and this is the 12 Guests of Christmas East Coast Edition Night One. Woo!
Starting point is 00:02:40 Sold out. Night Two, seats available. Some people are holding out going, let's see how night one goes before we make any decisions. But I know you guys always have amazing name tags, but let's go ahead and take a look at them. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:03:11 Katie Freeman has done it again with her she knitted an Admiral Ackbar and then wrote the expression it's a cap! It's pretty amazing.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Stand up and show everybody that thing. Look at that fucking thing. So good luck, everybody else. Because if that doesn't get chosen by one of my 12 guests, I will be shocked. But there's lots of good ones out there, and thank you for going all that work. Here's a video one over here.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Like, somehow you've got my head in there. On a video. Empire of the Sun. That's weird. And what's your name? Mason. Empire? Mason. Mason. Empire of Mason.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Yeah. Okay. Thanks, everybody. You can put them down now. But get ready to whip them out again, because once I get my 12 guests out here, we'll get right to the name tag selection process. Doug plugs tomorrow night.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Already mentioned it. Doesn't hurt to mention it again. And then Tuesday, December 5th, Doug Loves Movies is back at the UCB Theater Franklin location in L.A., and then we're doing two 12-guess episodes in Los Angeles at Largo on December 12th and 13th. And Tate Crazy Nights starts December 13th
Starting point is 00:04:56 and goes for eight nights until December 20th. For all the deets, go to DougLowe'sMovies.com. That's DougLowe'sMovies.com. That's douglosmovies.com! Yeah! Free birds! Shut up! What did you say? Free birds? That's not you yell free bird in a concert, not free birds.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Are there birds that are not free somewhere? Because they could fly away, probably. And then once you said that, then another lady, not another lady, you're not a lady, but... A lady was all, shut up. I don't know how much of that will get on the recording, but it's all pretty entertaining. I brought a prize bag.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I brought some stuff. I didn't go crazy because, you know, there's going to be gifts from 12 different people on stage tonight, but I did, you know, want to kick it off with some cool stuff, like a sippy cup that I got when I saw a play last night. Well, I'll tell you what play, inquisitive audience member. It's called Meteor Shower. And yeah, it stars two previous guests on this show.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Hopefully I'll have them back someday. Amy Schumer and Laura Benanti. And Keegan-Michael Key and Jeremy Shamos. And it's written by Steve Martin. It's very funny and I enjoyed it. And there's my sippy cup. Oh, speaking of drinking and cups,
Starting point is 00:06:51 this is weird. I saw this on Christmas Day. I had to buy it. It's a candy shot glass. So you drink from it, and then you can eat the whole glass. It's like some Willy Wonka shit. And the slogan on the glass, the tagline on the glass packaging is,
Starting point is 00:07:12 lick it, refill it, and eat it. Yeah, that's pretty intense. It probably says, I think there's zero calories in it now that you mention it. But no more questions until the end of the show. Hold your questions until the end. Here's a screener of the movie. I think
Starting point is 00:07:35 it was Angelina Jolie was in it. A movie called Changeling. Seems like a fun holiday gift. Isn't it about like her baby turning into something? Doesn't her baby turn into a huge success? And all the way from California, I flew out. Going to give another one of these away tomorrow night. A big Christmassy rubber bong from my friends at Peacemaker.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Excuse me, water pipe, water pipe. It's a big water pipe. All that, plus all the stuff brought by all of my guests. Are you guys ready to meet them? Please give a warm welcome to... Alex Brightman, Rob Cantrell, Trey Galleon, Seth Herzog, Doogie Horner, Liz Mealy,

Starting point is 00:09:15 Hometown kid. I don't know what to tell you, Seth. All right. Who's talking already? Who's Seth? Well, maybe. All right. So Seth wins already? It was Seth. Well, maybe. All right. So Seth wins the Pete Holmes Award. Yeah! Nice try, the devil. For being the first to speak.
Starting point is 00:09:34 But we're going to meet everybody individually. I'm going to go around, I believe we call it in the business, clockwise. Starting with Doogie Horner, ladies and gentlemen. Happy holidays. Thank you. It's nice to be here at the Gramercy. Thanks for being here, dude. How have you done in previous 12 guest episodes? Have you cracked the top three? No, I've done pretty bad. One time I was sitting right next to Jesse, and it was just... You can't ever ask him to...
Starting point is 00:10:11 You can't ever be like, call it, because you know he'll just nail it. Well, at least this year, your hair's a little higher than his. You both got poofy hair heads, but yours is a little higher, I think. I think you're the highest hair of all the heads. Wow.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Quite an accomplishment. Rob's got a little... Damn it. I thought I had it. No, yours just goes out and all over the place. Yeah, I did take a shower and wear a hat right before the show. So I didn't hit the hair dryer. We're not up to you yet.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Sorry about that. In the spirit of Christmas, shut up. Check. But Doogie, thanks for being here, man. Yeah, thanks for having me. Always good to see you. And keep going with that hair. I'm trying.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Yeah. I'm flexing really hard. That's why it's so high right now. It takes a lot of energy to keep it this high. All right. Well, no slouch in the hair sticking up department. Directly to your left, it's Eric Nagel. Hi, Doug.
Starting point is 00:11:24 You guys know him from all of his endeavors over at SiriusXM, including the It's Eric Nagel show. Right. Yeah, what do you got going on? Several shows that have disappeared in the last few years. Yeah, things get, you know, they come and go in this business, but what are you doing right now? Right now, still doing my show on iHeartRadio, Spotify,
Starting point is 00:11:44 and around the country. It's Eric Nagel. Yeah. Yeah. And you get awesome guests on that show. I do, and it's weird. It's usually people that you think any show would want to take, but they don't. But you know when you start getting the cast of The Flash on your show, or Gotham, or the cast from Justice League coming on the show or Gotham or the cast from Justice League coming on
Starting point is 00:12:06 the show and you're like, why aren't other shows wanting to take these guys? Oh, well, they're either doing the Tonight Show or your show. So it's like, I'm like the bottom level of, well, we need to round out his schedule. We need one more show to throw on there. So they'll just like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:12:22 He's good. He's not going to be threatening or whatever. Just put him on his show. Yeah, this nerd's going to be excited to see us. Yeah, exactly. This could be a real kiss-assy interview. Right, and then I got their toys to get signed. Might get a little technical here and there.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Yeah. Might nerd out a little too hard sometimes. A little bit. Yeah. A little bit. I know Doug has been on one of the other shows I used to do and has seen me actually fanboy when I shouldn't be fanboying for guests that we've had on there and sometimes it is with Doug.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Well, I'll tell you what's about to happen to me. I'm about to fanboy on our next guest. Oh, no, man. If you're a last man standing historian, you could go all the way back to the first season for our friend Rob Cantrell. Oh.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Love you, New York. Love doing this show. Thanks for having me. All right, next up we've got... That was perfect. How are you doing, Rob? How are you enjoying the holiday season? Love it. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:13:33 Just eating turkey. Had a good Thanksgiving, man. Stuffing. I had some leftovers before I got here. Still rocking it. Just fucking can't stop You have such a unique story to tell about your Thanksgiving
Starting point is 00:13:48 well I had my mom up that was nice oh that is nice and she came up and then my sister and her kids and we ate some stuffing and some gravy
Starting point is 00:13:59 you know it's pretty much the same story I told before the classic story of Thanksgiving that's right. What about you, Doug? What did you do for Thanksgiving? I hung out with my mom.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Cool. Yeah. Stuffing? No, I didn't stuff my mom. You're such a good son. She's a nice old lady. I leave her alone. What about the sweet potatoes?
Starting point is 00:14:25 I didn't do anything to my mom's sweet potatoes That's a lot more motherly Thank you for being here Rob Thanks for having me Next to you we have a gentleman Who's not afraid to put on some Freddy Krueger wear And leave the house. It's Jesse Pasternak!
Starting point is 00:14:54 Thank you for having me back, Doug, and I'm sorry I didn't bring my fedora or my claw glove. I had it in the car, but I just forgot to bring it. No, this is like the subtle Freddy Krueger look. Yeah, it's like you don't know if it's a dream, you don't know if it's reality, but we're going to find out together. Anyone could sign up to be a member of the Dream Police.
Starting point is 00:15:23 And we missed you in Traverse City this last summer. It was the first time I'd been there where you were not there. But you were busy out in California
Starting point is 00:15:33 making movies? Sort of. I was at a management company, so I read script coverage. I edited a video or two for them. I answered the phones. It was really like
Starting point is 00:15:42 a classic, you know, first job in Hollywood, so that was a lot of fun. But I missed everybody in Traverse City, and thank you so much for having me back here. He is like, every day it's like he's competing in a pageant. I've got a big thing planned for the tile portion.
Starting point is 00:16:06 It's going to be great. All right, dude. Thanks for being here. Pass the mic to your left to Mr. Greg Wyshynski, everybody. Hi, everybody. Hello, Douglas. Hockey lover. hockey lover movie opinion
Starting point is 00:16:29 haver I've seen some of your opinions on Twitter this is where we have to ask are there any hockey fans in the crowd tonight I'd like to formally thank Chance the Rapper and Saturday Night Live for making my sport relevant for about 20 minutes last weekend. It was very nice.
Starting point is 00:16:48 What happened? He did a hockey sketch on SNL. You didn't see it? I did see it. Why is that? I was happy that they did hockey. They made hockey look good in some way? No one does hockey.
Starting point is 00:16:58 That's what's up. That's the thing. The whole sketch was about how lame hockey was. Yeah. No... All publicity is good publicity, Doug. The whole sketch was about how lame hockey was. Yeah. No. All publicity is good publicity, Doug. All right. The sport cool brothers know nothing about.
Starting point is 00:17:16 I believe the official slogan is the coolest sport on ice. That's courtesy of the National Hockey League marketing partner. What? Because every other sport on ice is super not cool. It's the most fighty sport on ice. Yeah, fuck off curling. Well, thanks for being back, dude. You've finished quite well in previous 12 guests. I believe you won the first one here in New York?
Starting point is 00:17:44 Was it the first one? Maybe. I won one of them. And then I thwarted you. That was a big thrill. Did you know Sam's here? He's behind me. To my left. In the order. Here you go, Sam. Yeah, we got a real nerd cluster going on
Starting point is 00:18:02 over here. Let's hear it. Some call him a freak, but I call him a geek. It's Sam the Man! Thank you very much. Aw. Sam, is it true that you're a freak in the bed and a geek in the streets?
Starting point is 00:18:23 The rumors are true, Doug. Anyone who listened to our last show from San Diego knew that I was a little under the weather with feline AIDS. And the good news is I came to New York and I got a second opinion and they said it was SIDS.
Starting point is 00:18:44 So, fingers crossed. Does that mean someone's going to smash a crib over your head? Is that what they mean by crib death? I'm not a doctor, Doug. I just took the pills they gave me. All right, well, I'm really glad you flew all the way out to say that. Yep. Yeah, my flight's in an hour, so I got to... Yeah you flew all the way out to say that. Yep. Yeah, my flight's in an hour, so I got to...
Starting point is 00:19:08 Yeah, you should probably get out of here. I got to get out of here. But, yeah, thanks for being here. First time ever doing the show in New York City. It's true. Thank you. Very happy to be here. It's a dream come true for a lot of these people.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Yeah. I hope not. We've got a lot of make-a-wish kids here tonight. They're at a big SIDS meetup. What the fuck would a Sid's meetup be? It's a bunch of guys named Sid. That's not so bad. Yeah, it's not weird at all. All right.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Sitting in front of Sam, always a delightful guest on the show, it's Aparna Nansherla, everybody. Hello. Hi, Doug. Thanks for having me. Thanks for being here. I was here last year and I finished better than I should have from a fluke turn of luck. Do you remember what went down?
Starting point is 00:20:24 No, but everyone seemed very impressed that I got it right after a very lackluster start. And then I think foolishly people were like, oh, she was being devious about her knowledge, and then they quickly learned that was not true.
Starting point is 00:20:41 That's what I like about this part of the show, chatting with everybody, is because once we get into the game people really do get eliminated they get sent home and I don't want them to feel like they came down here for nothing so are you having a good time so far? I'm having a great time
Starting point is 00:20:57 here in the ladies section yeah see that's the thing. Strategically, if the ladies want to support each other, it's probably best not to sit right next to each other. But that's the important thing, is being near each other, right? I think topically it's a good time we sit together. Well, I thought it was interesting how all three of you wouldn't get up during the national anthem this evening.
Starting point is 00:21:26 It's true. It's true. But thank you for being here. Oh, thank you for having me. Always a pleasure. And next to you, it's Noelle Wells! Hi. Also quite a score from, you know, normally you're out in L.A., but you're here because your motion picture, Mr. Roosevelt, is playing in town.
Starting point is 00:21:56 In one theater. But at a great theater, the Sunshine. Sunshine Theater. Sunshine Cinema. I love that theater over on, what do you call it? Houston? Houston. Yeah, it's spelled Houston, but you say Houston.
Starting point is 00:22:11 The other day I was walking down Houston, and I was like, has anybody ever said Houston, we have a problem? I was like, probably, and it was a long time ago, and they were very lame. But it's going to creep all over the, that's not the right word. No, creeping is fine. It's just sort of leaking. It's going to creep all over the... That's not the right word. No, creeping is fine. It's just sort of leaking. It's going to spread. It's going to leak all over the country,
Starting point is 00:22:30 gradually starting now-ish, right? Ish. It's been around. It's sort of like a bug that some people catch, but not, you know, lingers. And then available on Netflix on December 26th. Yeah, that's... Yeah, December 26th in that's yeah December 26th
Starting point is 00:22:45 in all 126 countries it's been fun and this week in New York has been really fun I've just I don't think I've ever like drank in my entire life and I've just been stuck in New York
Starting point is 00:22:57 genuinely like I'll drink like sometimes but I've been stuck here and I'm I've been drunk I'm like yeah it's I'm I've been drunk. I'm like, yeah. It's been fun. I get it now.
Starting point is 00:23:09 Can we get you something to drink right now? Sure. I'm drinking a Stella but you know whatever you guys want. You should probably take it up a notch
Starting point is 00:23:15 from that can of beer. Yeah, yeah guys. You got anything? Shots. If you're announcing that you're drinking. Yeah, all right. All right.
Starting point is 00:23:22 Thank you guys. Bring her a shot of something delicious. Tito's, yes. All right. Thank you, guys. Bring her a shot of something delicious. Tito's, yes, of course. Of course, Tito's for the holidays. And we've got a first-time guest next to Noelle. It's Liz Mealy, everybody. Very funny New York stand-up comedian.
Starting point is 00:23:46 I feel like everybody covered everything. And trivia expert. Oh, God. It's going to be bad. Is it? Yeah, it's going to be really bad. Well, it's been great having you here. I've seen three movies.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Oh, really? Could you name them? Mrs. Doubtfire. Of course. It all happened in the 90s. That's the last time my parents let me watch TV. I think Liar Liar. Oh, that's a good one.
Starting point is 00:24:11 And then I just watched Red Dawn for Thanksgiving. So it's like one 80s movie and then everything is like 90s comedy. Wait, original Red Dawn or remake? The original. Oh, all right, word. Holy, holy shit. Worst movie I've ever seen. No.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Wow. It's becoming a documentary. No. It is very much so. But exposition, like I'm a writer. Exposition-wise, you don't even learn their names until they start dying. Inconsequential. Why? Because it's an action dying. Inconsequential. Why?
Starting point is 00:24:46 Because it's an action movie. It's got nothing. Who cares what their names are? Just shoot people. I was just hoping that it would be like a funny 80s movie. And it was just more like. No, it's not. I like them when they're like tragically funny.
Starting point is 00:25:01 What, you thought it was going to be like a John Hughes flick? I don't know. I just told you I only watch Mrs. Doubtfire and Liar Liar. What, you thought it was going to be like a John Hughes flick? I don't know. I just told you I only watch Mrs. Doubtfire and Liar Liar. Oh, I see. You see that I don't have
Starting point is 00:25:09 like a big repertoire. Well, maybe read the thing on the back of the cover next time, you know? And be like, oh, it's not a comedy. Nobody prepared me. Oh, well then hit info.
Starting point is 00:25:19 I'm not there yet. All right. I'm done. So yeah, I'm going to, I'll be out. I just want to say hi and bye. Hey Trey, great job sitting in the middle and bullying everybody.
Starting point is 00:25:32 She went after Red Dawn, man. It's Trey Gallion, everybody. She went after Red Dawn. You won this thing last year. I'm the reigning champion. I couldn't even say it without laughing. That's why you're sitting up front all manspreading. I'm sitting normal.
Starting point is 00:25:54 Acting like the king of the fucking forest. Have I been preening? Is that the right word? I don't even know if that's... You're certainly the loudest, especially considering you don't have a microphone. Yeah. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I do some jokes for the listeners. How are you, man? Not too bad, man. How are you? How do you feel about your chances tonight looking around at this group? Yeah, not well. But I didn't think I was
Starting point is 00:26:25 going to make it that far last year. Oh, is the weed brownie guy here this year again? Because if you are, start throwing them up, buddy. That seemed to help out. Also here tonight... It's Seth Herzog! Yes!

Starting point is 00:27:21 How much did he want? He was getting married. He's like, I'm getting married and I really want to raise money for my wedding. I was like, fuck you. Come on, man. 25 bucks. No, I think you wanted a couple thousand or something. I'm like, I'm not going to give that to you. All right.
Starting point is 00:27:40 I guess you did the right thing. How's it going? Very well. I'm psyched to be here. The Gramercy Theater in New York Alliance is my absolute favorite. Four of you fell for that. Thank you very much. I'm glad we're on the route of your jog tonight.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Yeah. Yeah. I was just jogging by. Thought I'd stop in. I'm dressed like DMC today. And also joining us, the 12th magical guest on this beautiful,

Starting point is 00:29:15 Yeah, great, great job, dude. I see no money from it now at all. So my face around town is enough. And being a guest on your podcast is... Yeah, what else could you want? That's it. Really, out of this business, it's really...
Starting point is 00:29:30 This is as good as it gets. Yep. You even got in the front row with a... You have a back on your chair. Yeah, that's a huge, by the way. That's a huge plus. I didn't realize that.
Starting point is 00:29:40 These slobs in the back row don't have... They're just sitting there, their backs just waving in the wind. Seth and I were talking about how we were in the front when it was just like four or five of us and we would sit on the stools
Starting point is 00:29:51 and we would see pictures that people would post on Instagram and all of us look like we have like avalanche tummies, just like terrible shots. Yeah, like that. So this back chair thing is going to make all the pictures
Starting point is 00:30:03 look less tummy-ish. Photographs aren't allowed, by the way. People take them anyway. What are you going to do? All right. All right. That, those are our 12 competitors, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:30:39 The top three tonight will be moving on to tomorrow night. So that's exciting. They'll have another chance to show off and try to make it into the top three. And please let me know later if you can't make it. Who can't make it? We'll bring back the next person in line. I know some people that might not be able to make it,
Starting point is 00:31:03 but we don't want to make it look like anybody's throwing the competition tonight. I want everyone to try to win, and then we'll work out the rest of it later. All right. Okay. All right, Alex. Before we play,

Starting point is 00:47:41 So I brought two books. I brought some very interesting cats, perhaps you weren't aware of. A book that I wrote and illustrated. And inside, I wrote my email address.

Let's see what's underneath it. Okay, well, suddenly seems less impressive to be number one. Number three was Dog Man, also. It's a book about a dog that's a middle grade book. A dog? It's a book about a dog that's a middle grade book.
Starting point is 00:48:45 A do-og? It's a book about a do-og? I have an accent, dog. Grew up on the mean streets of Lancaster. Thanks for that stuff, Doogie. Eric, what have you got for the prize bag? Well, being that it's the 12 guests of Christmas, I figured I'd go with the Christmas theme.
Starting point is 00:49:08 First, we'll start with the hottest video game of the holiday season. For the year 1982, it's Pac-Man for the Atari 5200. And when you're done playing that, who doesn't enjoy a good holiday television special? You can watch it on your own copy of a He-Man and She-Ra Christmas special. And everyone likes gifts, action figures.
Starting point is 00:49:38 So we have here one of the best Christmas movies from Gremlins. It's an authentic gizmo. of the best Christmas movies from Gremlins. It's an authentic gizmo.

All right, I'm giving this to you. It folds out. He's playing guitar. I actually, I found this on the street the other week. And I was just checking it out. I just had it on my desk because, you know, it just looked cool. I don't own a record player. But I looked at I was like I'll give this away at Doug's but it's all it's a little scratched it's a little scratch so I bought I also have some rolling
Starting point is 00:50:51 papers so you could just roll a joint on it if you win it and then so you got you're gonna get it Steve Martin vinyl. You're getting rolling papers. And I also got a whoopee cushion as well. There's nothing more you need in life right now than a good old whoopee cushion. For, you know, just a good part. This is some real deserted island shit you're giving us. This is just essentials. You have those things. You need nothing else
Starting point is 00:51:25 are we going to go ahead and blow up the whoopee cushion because it's a core of comedy I guess because I mean this is Steve Martin the classic and there's nothing more classic than the good old whoopee cushion so can I just give it a rip for the podcast listeners at home
Starting point is 00:51:41 there you go. That's where my guy is. All right, but now could you sit on the whoopee cushion? Oh, those sweet potatoes came back. That was disgusting. That was the wettest whoopee cushion fart I've ever heard.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Well, like farts, they're all different, you know? It's like snowflakes. Well, did you bring that stuff in some sort of bag? No. Do you need a bag? No, just pass them down.
Starting point is 00:52:17 We'll work it out. Some people brought bags. Jesse brought a bag. What do you got for us, Jesse? Oh, thanks. So, today is Charles Schultz's birthday, so I brought a copy of Schultz and Peanuts by David McAllis. It's a very big book.
Starting point is 00:52:34 There's a blurb from John Updike on the back, so you know what's legitimate. If you're interested in him at all, Time Magazine gave it a great blurb and was actually going to name it Peanuts Biography of the Year, but I had to do this whole photo shoot and interview so that didn't work out. Such a fucking nerd, man.
Starting point is 00:52:52 Oh my God, you're killing me. If this book whets your appetite to learn more about peanuts, I brought a jar of peanuts so you can... Hell yeah. You know, really do a deep dive, give it the attention it deserves. You can really do a deep dive into peanuts
Starting point is 00:53:08 thanks to Jesse Pasternak. Symmetric. The bag got ripped because you brought these giant heavy things. But nice try, dude. Don't you pass it to me now. I don't want that shit now. Sitting next to Jesse is somebody with a very sturdy looking bag.
Starting point is 00:53:36 Thank you. It's from the Madewell Corporation. What do you have, Greg? Hashtag denim Madewell. Do I get anything for that? So since the last podcast, Doug Loves Movies podcast, I left Yahoo for ESPN.
Starting point is 00:53:50 So I have an ESPN plastic beer pong cup for the loneliest beer pong game, I suppose, if you just, I only have one. Inside the cup I have for you a real Canadian loonie from a recent trip to Montreal. 27 more Canadian cents and you'll have yourself a fancy US dollar. That's exciting. I bought a copy of my book, Take Your Eye Off the Puck. It's autographed, whoever wins. But this is all shit because the thing that I really wanted to show you was this
Starting point is 00:54:27 plush wampa that growls. And then also in true wampa tradition, the arm is detachable. So there's the bag. Money and wampas. Wampas were money at one point, I believe. Money and wampas.
Starting point is 00:54:47 Wampas were money at one point, I believe. Is that wampum? This is true. Hey, do the same rules apply on this one as other Doug Loves movies? Like, if a guest sees something in the bag that they want, that they can have it? Yeah, I guess you want this guy? Yeah. Okay, here.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Wait, wait. Wait, give me this. I had no idea that this was a rule. Is there something you want, Noel? I'm drunk with greed. I don't know. You want those peanuts, don't you? Yeah, baby.
Starting point is 00:55:31 I was just kidding, too, you guys. I'm not going to be that big a dick and steal this thing from one of yours. I'm not going to do that. Oh, Jesus. Whose turn is it? It's mine. I got some stuff, but more importantly, I have a handful of pretty hard Starbursts that I'm really...
Starting point is 00:56:01 You're just going to launch a handful of Starbursts into the crowd? What do you guys think about this? Watch your eyes. Guys, they're all coming out at once. Put on your protective goggles. I'm going to spray it. Don't throw them hard.

Starting point is 00:56:49 Someone literally booed. Yep. Maybe they've seen it. New York doesn't want to be blamed for Woody Allen. Well, I'm not holding them accountable for him. I'm just saying he lives here.
Starting point is 00:57:04 For my money, this may be the funniest film of all time on DVD, Airplane. And since I'm staying back at my folks' place, I did not realize I had any of these left to give away. When Freaks and Geeks, just before it was canceled, we actually had a soundtrack released and these are postcards promoting that soundtrack that I have signed
Starting point is 00:57:32 so this is going to go to the winner of the prize bag it says get your freak on Freaks and Geeks original soundtrack. Styx is on here. I shit you not. Styx, Joe Jackson, XTT, Rush.

Well, I know it's the holidays and people are feeling pretty turned on. I don't have airplane, but I do have Air Sex the movie. It's kind of like porn, but it's not at all.
Starting point is 00:58:28 It is a documentary about the Air Sex championships. But don't worry, if that won't get you going, this romance novel will. And it's a two-in-one. The Duke and the Duchess and the courtship. Oh. That must be everything, I know. This is moving very fast.
Starting point is 00:58:50 I also have Calvin Klein, Summer Obsession. And to finally bring you down from your horny bender, I got exploding pickle candy. Congratulations. Wow, that is a true romance, Kit. Very excited for all of that. That was a very nice contribution. Noel.
Starting point is 00:59:19 Mine's not great. Well, I went to Chinatown today and went to a store to get my aura photographed. And I thought I brought it to give away and I didn't. But after the aura
Starting point is 00:59:39 photography, I went to a bodega and I, it was like, you know, a bodega where they sell things. And I was like, what is your most expensive watch? And he pointed out one and I was like, how much is it? And he said, $400. And I said, okay, no. Okay. What's the cheapest watch that looks expensive? And so he pointed out another one and then I haggled and then he sent me to a chase. And then I was like, I'll buy that. And I was like, here's my credit card. He was like, cash only. And I was like, okay, where do I get cash? And he sent me to a chase bank.
Starting point is 01:00:16 There was no, I couldn't get in. Can we get Noelle a drink? I need, I need one more drink. Send me a chase bank. It was was locked and then i came back and i was like sir that was a locked bank and he goes no just use your card to get in i was like sir there's there's no place to put my card in a slot and then he goes okay go to that restaurant over there and then i went to the restaurant and they had an atm and i put my card in it and it had one of the lowest ATM bank fees I have ever seen and I was very impressed.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Uh-huh, then what? Everyone that I had dragged on this adventure with me, I was just like, it's $1.99 bank fee. How amazing is that? I got 40 bucks. Uh-huh. Then what?
Starting point is 01:01:08 And then I went, and then I bought this watch. It's very big, very glitzy, and it looks expensive, but it's not. So that's the... I'm going to take that watch.
Starting point is 01:01:21 So that's the... I'm going to take that watch. Sorry. Thank you, Noel. That's a great watch and a great story. It's heavy like it's expensive. I like it. Liz Mealy? I can't follow that adventure at all.
Starting point is 01:01:46 So I thought because it was my first time here, I would go for self-promotion. So this is a T-shirt I had designed, and I don't sell anymore, and there's like three in my closet. So it's a cat. That's my cat. Her name's Pasta.
Starting point is 01:02:00 And if it's too big for you, you make it into a dress. So it's for everyone. It's all inclusive. And then this is my first album. It's called Emotionally Exhausting. My cat's also on it. And both of these were designed by a guy named Josh Merman who makes shirts.
Starting point is 01:02:17 And he's at Comic-Cons. And he's a really talented person. And sorry if you don't like my material. That's very honest. And sorry if you don't like my material. We have so many microphones. Oh, yeah, pass it down. Sorry. Pass it over. Trey, what do you got?
Starting point is 01:02:35 Okay, I've got a thing of curb wax that looks like purple drank for any skateboarders in your life. drink for any skateboarders in your life. And then I've got a barf bag that was sent to me by Severin Films. They sent me a copy of Dr. Butcher MD that came with two barf bags. So I decided to give one away today. And MD does not stand for what you think it stands for. Medical deviant. Yeah. He's a depraved, sadistic rapist,
Starting point is 01:03:12 a bloodthirsty, homicidal killer, and he makes house calls. So that's cool. And he's on the panel tonight. Doogie. Why'd you have to out me, Doug? Oh, and everybody signed it on the back.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Look at that. And then a copy of my CD. I was going to defend myself. It took forever to get a microphone. I was just going to say it's not true. I'm not a doctor and I wouldn't do that type of thing if I was. Whatever. Whatever.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Oh, and then my old Dollywood season pass. Old. It doesn't work anymore, all right? Seth? I have a ukulele that has Spider-Man on it. Putting that in the bag. I brought a couple things. The David Brent songbook. So it's written in his voice.
Starting point is 01:04:19 All the songs he sang on the show, on The Office, and why he sang them in which episode. And it's sort of like a diary. It's very funny. And also a DVD of some of season two of The Office, English version. And then who doesn't, as a perfect addendum to that,
Starting point is 01:04:37 a DVD of the L.A. Riots. I was like, what? Two great tastes that go great together. L.A. Riots and The Office. Okay. Is that a band called the L.A. Riots? Yeah, or is that just like footage of the L.A. Riots? Yeah, it's a documentary about the 1991 L.A. Riots.
Starting point is 01:04:56 The cover looks like a band. Right? It's just like hip and... I feel like you have your new band. It's from the Smithsonian show. I feel like you have your new band. It's from the Smithsonian show. It would also be a good name for a comedy festival in L.A.
Starting point is 01:05:13 Ha ha ha ha. No? Okay. Do not make me refill this whoopee cushion. All right, so all of that stuff. Wait, did we do yours yet, Alex? What'd you bring, Alex? I brought a couple cool things. Okay, cool.
Starting point is 01:05:35 So all of that stuff. I feel as though you're going to want to hear this. Okay. I brought a nice blend wine, white wine. It's 60% Gewurztraminer, 30% Muscat, and 10% Riesling, which I have heard goes nice with a nice cheese. And when you're enjoying that, you can put your glass on this coaster that I got from Billy Crudup that says School of Cock on it.
Starting point is 01:06:05 I literally don't know kind of the genesis or origin of that story. He just gave it to me, and I thought it was the School of Rock until I got home. And then, when you're enjoying your wine, I also brought this charger that I didn't think I knew what it went to, but then I remembered it went to something I've never used, which is a Nintendo 3DS. So it's brand-new. It's never been used. And then I brought three of my favorite things. remembered, it went to something I've never used, which is a Nintendo 3DS.

Just loudly guess for all of us to hear. Or struggle and fight for a microphone. That might be kind of fun. But the first person who names this movie correctly, the full correct title of this film, will get to go first in
Starting point is 01:19:14 what's going to be a very crucial game tonight in determining our winner. in determining our winner. What movie musical has these songs in it? Here Comes Santa Claus.

I just know like the names of characters and then like the sadness in films. I know moments I got sad, moments I was like her smile brightens up my life. Like those are the only things I have inside me right now, but there are no titles. Should I just go now? Maybe if you like if you describe it a little bit, maybe you'll stumble into the title.

I'm not going to try to take this off here because I think I'm going to rip the whole thing apart if I do it. Oh, there it is. I don't even know if I can pronounce that. All right. So suspenseful. Why are all the people losing in a clump over there?
Starting point is 01:44:50 They were all sitting next to each other. Alex, how's it going? It's not great. I don't have it, and I was going to think of a funny one, but I'm just going to do a shot in the dark. I've had a great time being here, everybody. Thank you. Whatever.

Starting point is 01:45:50 We're dwindling them down here. When we get down to three, all three of those people are invited back tomorrow night, but they will also find it out tonight to determine who wins tonight. Seth, you got something for me? It struck me. I'm not 100%. Was she in Flatliners?
Starting point is 01:46:12 Yeah, that's what I thought, right? Nicely done. Yeah. Cheers on that. So that's your answer, Flatliners? Yes. Because that would be pretty awesome if the whole audience tricked you into thinking. I was 70% sure.
Starting point is 01:46:28 She was in the gaslighting apparently. But let's not ask let's not get the audience's help in determining whether or not she was in the movie. Yeah, okay. Because if they would have went no, then you would have went okay, not my answer.
Starting point is 01:46:44 I know what you're doing. Trey? Oh. Poor Trey. Yeah. Poor Trey. Fuck. The Mexican, too.
Starting point is 01:47:00 I got nothing. I got nothing. Fuck. Sorry. Trey Gall. Fuck! Sorry. Trey Gallion, thank you. Yeah, thank you, guys. Oh, wow. That was a really, really hard throw at the front row.
Starting point is 01:47:18 Oh, my God. For the benefit of those at home, Trey just whipped a donut into the first row like he was turning a double play. Where's your name tag, Trey? Oh, the box of donuts? Okay. All right, great job, dude.
Starting point is 01:47:36 Trey Gallion, everybody. I'm really upset all the donuts are gone. I really wanted to throw one in the audience. There's one in the front row, actually. It looks intact. Yeah. Oh. All right.
Starting point is 01:47:55 It barely touched the ground. Here's the thing. I know a movie, but I don't know the name. So, no lifelines? Oh, there's more donuts. Yeah, I don't know the name of the movie I know it's an Altman film I know Tim Robbins is in it he's like you guys know it tell me I just put Shh. Shh. Tell me. Shh. Shh. I just put the baby down. Anyway. I feel like maybe she also played like the queen in like an Alice in Wonderland movie.
Starting point is 01:48:39 Is that true? That's more like some Anne Hathaway shit. No, no. Is that true? Somebody nod. Is that true? Everybody's shaking. You're on aaway shit. No, no. Is that true? Somebody nod. Is that true? Everybody's shaking. You're on a, you're like on a path.
Starting point is 01:48:49 Yeah. But you're not allowed to ask the audience to help you determine. She's in an all-men movie at the very end. They want to help you so bad. They don't have to help me, but if somebody wants to say anything. But she's, I just remember she's like, I will throw a donut at you if you help her.
Starting point is 01:49:12 Somebody wants to mouth it? No, that's not how this works. All right, well, I don't remember. How drunk are you? But I'll give it to somebody else.
Starting point is 01:49:20 She's at the very end and she plays, she's like in a movie within a movie. I remember it. Do you guys remember this? who wants a fucking donut? yeah yeah

Starting point is 01:51:22 A pre-problematic Mel Gibson. Well, I mean, he was problematic then. We just, you understand. Seth, we're back around to you, buddy. Conspiracy Theory was going to be my favorite because I was going to do the rap from the movie. Do you guys remember the rap? He kept going, Conspiracy Theory, what's up?

Ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty... Yeah, we got at least 20 movies we haven't named.
Starting point is 01:52:20 Thanks for making me feel awesome. Some of them are kind of, I guess, obscure in their own way, but they all have Julia Roberts in them. So that makes them noteworthy. She's a pretty big star. Yeah. There was one she did that was very dark.
Starting point is 01:52:44 It was the name of the character. Right? I'm going to get the wrong name, though. I think I'm the wrong name. I'm thinking Charlotte Gray. That's not it, though, right? That's not it. That's not it.
Starting point is 01:52:56 But it's similar. No. That was my guess. That's it? Yeah. You're out? I'm guess. That's it? Yeah. You're out? I'm out. Seth's out.
Starting point is 01:53:13 Is there a shithead on that ukulele? Let's get that over here. That sounded dirtier than you meant it. She doesn't want a donut. This side never gets any love. There we go. Oh, it's on the... There you go.
Starting point is 01:53:31 There you go. I guess they can't catch. Ungrateful motherfuckers. Anarchy. I bet you if we threw that donut that came back up onto the stage, if we threw it out there, somebody would still eat it.

Can you come back tomorrow night? I can't.
Starting point is 01:54:46 You can't? But Seth should come back. That's good news for Seth. I know. Yeah, Seth will be back tomorrow night. If I'm still alive, I'll be happy to return. Seth, you want to come back? Yay!
Starting point is 01:54:57 Yay! Okay, well, he's turned us down. I'm happy to return to beat whoever is here tomorrow. Because Aperna has better things to do than come to the Gramercy Theater. I don't have four hours of therapy. Well, I'd still like to see you take down the wind tonight, Aparna, because that would be an achievement in and of itself. And you guys want to move into the front row with her?
Starting point is 01:55:44 Use some back support. Yeah. And just real quickly, just because I know you guys like a nice cool breeze in your faces, what Julia Roberts movies did not get mentioned? Oh, wait, what? That was it? That was it? Mary Riley.
