Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug hates candy wrappers screaming, taking sticky seats with 50 ads and popcorn kernels in his teeth. There's still not one that he won't see, cause Doug loves movies. For some reason I like how they enunciate in his teeth. I like that part. I don't know why. Hey everybody.
Starting point is 00:00:31 Just because it's a lighter crowd doesn't mean we're going to have a conversation. Don't try to talk to me directly. Thank you very much. My name is Doug and I love movies.

Starting point is 00:02:37 The new time slot is so that the new weekly stand-up show called Put Your Hands Together. Yeah, that's what it's called. I'm not asking you to clap. Put Your Hands Together can start each week at 8 o'clock. It's going to feature a lot of the comics you've been accustomed

Starting point is 00:03:57 If you missed out on that. Since last I spoke and you listened, I participated in a live recording of Pete Holmes' You Made It Weird podcast at Cobbs in San Francisco. And I saw a preview screening of Zero Dark Thirty. One was the nail-biting story
Starting point is 00:04:14 of a group of men trying to stop a monster. And the other was Zero Dark Thirty. Let's look in the prize bag, everybody. We've got Just Dance 3. That's fun.
Starting point is 00:04:30 We've got a t-shirt that we'll show you when the guest gets out here and explains it. We've got five copies of a CD because that particular guest didn't understand how this works. So the winner's gonna get five copies of the same CD.
Starting point is 00:04:46 And just because I got it in the mail, for your consideration, the script for the movie The Sessions. Yeah. I saw the movie The Sessions and I liked it, but I don't need to read it. It doesn't seem necessary. And then, of course, Doug Benson's Smug Life and some
Starting point is 00:05:01 Doug Benson buttons. Doug those movies buttons that I on the bag that the buttons came in, it said Smug Life and some Doug Benson buttons, Doug Loves Movies buttons. On the bag that the buttons came in, it said a Twitter name, so I'll tell you that name in one of the weeks to come because they're nice little buttons, and I appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Ladies and gentlemen, please help me in welcoming Lenin Parham, Jason Mantzoukas, and TJ Miller. Thank you. Lenin Parham, Jason Matsoukas, and TJ Miller. Oh, more gifts from Lenin. Started off like a professor okay first of all Lennon I apologize for how little you're going to get in this evening
Starting point is 00:05:53 how little opportunity you're going to have to speak so let's just say hi to you first Lennon Parham is here everybody yeah girl and she brought not only the first pregnancy to the show Yeah girl And she brought Not only The first pregnancy to the show What's up
Starting point is 00:06:10 In the history of the show I was going to say She's gained weight Baby I just caught it Baby I'm glad I was glad to find that out
Starting point is 00:06:17 The baby cooking in there How long How far along is it This is public Four and a half months Oh okay So you're going to be one of those skinny pregnant ladies. I hope so.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Yeah, yeah. I hope you get obese in the last month. Skinny all the way through and then obese in a month. But just like in my face. Just pop out. Is it fun getting to eat anything you want? I can't actually eat anything I want. There's a lot of shit I can't eat at all.
Starting point is 00:06:46 You can't eat cigarettes. Nope. You really shouldn't. That's true. You can't eat booze pops. Nope. Nope. You can't eat your frozen booze popsicles.
Starting point is 00:06:56 With a popsicle stick in it. You got it. Booze pops. You brought a copy of Just Dance 3. That's right, for the Wii. Yeah. Why?
Starting point is 00:07:09 Featuring, featuring Katy Perry's California Girl, so it's real current. I believe my niece has just asked for Just Dance 5 for Christmas.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Oh, God. So that's where we're at in the Just Dance spectrum. That's like trying to rock out to this, like, now is music. What are those called?
Starting point is 00:07:27 Yeah, now is music. What is it called? Now that's what I call music, 17. Volume, yeah, I think they're up to 40-something. Everybody abbreviates to now is music. Well, it's the longest title. You can't remember it. Now that's what I call music.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Now I'll tell you what I think is really some of the hot hits at this point 17 that's how long the title feels so you think you could go out on the floor and cut a rug better than anyone else longer versions right isn't that what we're doing
Starting point is 00:07:57 hashtag longer versions that was TJ Miller with the long thing there and he brought five copies of the TJ Miller with the long thing there. And he brought five copies of the TJ Miller, the extended play EP. It's failing miserably, Doug. It's the most colossal failure of my career. But people love it, though.
Starting point is 00:08:15 People do love it, but they won't pay a goddamn dime for it. I'm in debt over $270,000. I bought every single one of those beats, and I paid 15 young Japanese women to write the lyrics over the course of six and a half months. Jason Manzoukas,
Starting point is 00:08:34 you guys, he yeah. He brought this weird shirt. Why is it weird? Because it's ladies boobies and shorty shorts. I love those.
Starting point is 00:08:48 And a lot of American flag imagery. Because I'm a fucking patriot. And some white space next to her body. Is this something you can buy on the walk over here? Nope. I bought that in Palm Springs.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Yeah. You'll see. Planning ahead? If you look closer, the woman has a Palm Springs tattoo on her. Oh, okay. I believe. Yeah, on her heart with Palm Springs on it. Bought it in Palm Springs.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Thought I was going to wear it as a hilarious joke to the pool. Did not wear it. Became very self-conscious when I put it on. And I was like, I'm going to go down to the pool and wear it. And then I was like, nope. I love the moment of you looking in the mirror and being like, no go. This is a no go. Every step of the way, I was like, this is hilarious.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Hold it up to yourself and show everybody what it would have looked like. I was wondering if you had intercourse in it. Because imagine how bizarre that would be to make love to him as his upper torso was a pretty good looking lady with a rope belt. This is
Starting point is 00:09:48 fucking nice. I like the realism of the pockets hanging down below the cut off shorts. Who has that little denim and that much rope? That ratio. I mean, it's completely off. Right? Why even put the pockets in? Like you had an option.
Starting point is 00:10:04 It's not based in real... It's not a photo. I do love it. And I love... My favorite part of this is that the top of your thighs are also women's thighs. Like, that's sexy. And then it gets into fucking hairy legs.
Starting point is 00:10:17 This is where I was like, this is a home run idea. I'm going to buy this. Yeah, I can only imagine, like, in shorts what that would look like. I put it on. I put it on with my bathing suit. And then I was like, nope. No, this is untenable. I can't do this. Yeah, I can only imagine in shorts what that would look like. I put it on with my bathing suit, and then I was like, nope. No, this is
Starting point is 00:10:27 untenable. I can't do this. Well, to be fair, you were in a Speedo. I was in a Speedo. No, to be fair, I was balls out, just naked. Just fucking naked. Did the tip of your penis hang just below the bottom of the shirt? No, no, no. It just looks like the end of the rope. No, I wish.
Starting point is 00:10:43 I wish it did, but the tip of my penis. Who's your turtle friend? Who's that lizard Cyclops? Why is there a button down low there? Uh-oh. Why are you keeping the turtle between your thighs? To warm him, because
Starting point is 00:11:01 he has hypothermia. There's never a riff that you just walk away from ever. You're just like... That was the completion of the joke. Yeah, you finished it off. Full circle. And we all need now some natural calm, the anti-stress drink.
Starting point is 00:11:18 That's another prize that Lennon brought. You guys, I nailed it tonight. You have to have a wee and you have to be real stressed out. Well, you're going to be freaked out from all the dance, dance, dancing.
Starting point is 00:11:29 That's right. In order to get to sleep that night. Right, exactly. You have to have a natural calm drink. It's a raspberry lemon flavor. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Which worked up sweating to Katy Perry's California Girls. I love that film. The David Lee Roth video? Mm-hmm. Yes. Have you been in the movies of late, T.J. Miller?
Starting point is 00:11:51 No, but I watched... We were going to watch Lincoln. I found a screener of Lincoln, and we were going to watch that, but then instead I watched the producers, the Mel Brooks film. That is a lot of fun. Have you guys seen that?
Starting point is 00:12:04 With D.O. Ridge. What? With Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane, right? No. Zero Mostel. Well, now I've been made to feel better.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Gene Wilder. Yeah. It's pretty great. Pretty great movie. It's really fun. And then I tried to watch Rhinoceros Which is also
Starting point is 00:12:25 With Gene Wilder And Zero Mostel And it was I didn't understand it at all It's so bizarre It's called Rhinoceros Yeah It's a Eugene Ionesco
Starting point is 00:12:36 Yeah it didn't make any sense At all that movie Not a fan Thank you for coming Thank you so much for having me. We're done with you. Thanks for having me. Jason, have you seen any movies? Like, have you seen Giraffe
Starting point is 00:12:51 or Elk? Oh, boy. I saw Albatross, which is a British movie. I saw the best movie of the year, which is called Rust and Bone. It's the new Jacques Odiard movie. Nobody here has seen it. It's coming out right now. It's French.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Is that the one with the old lady they say nominated for Best Actress? And be the oldest of all time? Oh no, I bet that's the Amour. From the Michael Haneke movie. This is the guy that did A Prophet. Did anybody see A Prophet?
Starting point is 00:13:23 That movie's heavy. That movie's fucking intense, right? Yeah, yeah. The razor blade in the mouth scene, holy shit, right? Okay, so this is another movie that is as physically intimidating, as intense as A Prophet was. This movie is like an emotional gauntlet. It is a disaster of horrible emotional intensity, and it's fucking awesome. It's a... It's in 3D. Where is it playing? It's in 3D, right? There was a disaster of horrible emotional intensity, and it's fucking awesome.
Starting point is 00:13:45 It's in 3D. Where is it playing? It's in 3D, right? There was a screening of it. There was a screening of it, and it's now going to be out, I think, or is maybe already out in random theaters. Yeah, it'll be available soon.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Go see it for emotional rollercoaster. It's fucking awesome. I also saw the best movie of the year. Wait, wait, wait. Called Wreck-It Ralph. Which one was... Yeah, Wreck-It Ralph. Which one was... Yeah, Wreck-It Ralph is great. I was going to use that as a joke reference.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Nope. No joke reference. Movie is a fucking home run. That's it. Emotional intensity to the degree that I have never felt. What if you're just a really sensitive guy? I say anything you say. A harrowing journey of emotional intensity.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Wreck-It Ralph. Did you see Maximum Rush? I also saw the best movie of the year called Maximum Rush. Joe Gordon-Levitt. Bikes. Is that that one? Yeah. Is that what it's called?
Starting point is 00:14:35 No. Premium Rush. Premium Rush. Joe Gordon-Levitt. Remake of Quicksilver. That's right. You know what I'm talking about. I love his movie Absolute Fast.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Premium Rush. That's the one where he's in a hurry to not eat. Premium Rush is just like Premium Rush is like a title that's just supposed to attract idiots. You're like, I don't want to have that feeling. It doesn't say anything about the film.
Starting point is 00:15:01 It's just like, trust me, it's going to be a wild ride. I want to know the guys that walk out of that movie, they're like, see bro, I told you, premium rush. For a moment, I thought that rush wasn't going to be completely premium. I thought it was just going to be like fucking regular rush. But then a bus almost hit him.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Turns out, premium rush. No go on the bus hitting him. I also saw the worst movie of the year, Silver Linings Playbook. I said backstage, I won't see a film with that many syllables in the title. I've had that policy years now. Oh, really? Because backstage
Starting point is 00:15:38 you said six weeks. Well, each week has felt like an emotional rollercoaster. That's why you wouldn't go with me to see the Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. Did you just fall asleep? He fell asleep on his own podcast. That's right. With a pregnant woman.
Starting point is 00:15:56 I got confused between the Heath Ledger movie and the Dustin Hoffman movie. What was his called? Hoffman. Of Dr. Parnassus. The Imaginarium. Hoffman. Of Dr. Parnassus. The Imaginarium. Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. No, it wasn't. That's what it's called.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Dr. Parnassus. No, no, no. The one with Natalie Portman. Yeah. Mr. Magorium. Oh, Magorium's Emporium. Mr. Magorium's Emporium. Couldn't be Mr. Hop's Shop.
Starting point is 00:16:22 That would be a great film. Had to be. My name's Magorium. I guess I gotta open an emporium. The hop shop. I'm as pigeonholed as the Wetzel's pretzel guy. Doug? Doug? Doug, are you okay?
Starting point is 00:16:36 Doug, have you been drinking this calm energy drink? This is the calmest I've ever been on this show. I'm super duper calm. Have you been to the movies, Landon? Are you still doing that documentary, Super Calm Me? Yes.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Super Calm Me. He's just even keeled. He's an ex-all day every day. Another day, pretty calm. For 30 days, I think. 30 days of calm? Maybe a few years now. You're just on the phone with AT&T.
Starting point is 00:17:01 You're like, that's fine. That seems fine. That seems fair. Okay. That seems fair. That seems fair and balanced as well. I did. Thanks for asking. I saw the Silver Linings playbook, but I enjoyed it much more than this guy.
Starting point is 00:17:19 Boo. Wait, yeah. So wait a second. Let's have a little debate here. I thought it was fine. I just didn't think it was Everybody's like wet for this movie There's a lot of chemistry

Starting point is 00:17:44 I was like, not enough dancing. Cut to, there's more dancing. There wasn't really though. I mean, that really came in very late.
Starting point is 00:17:53 competition is you see one other competitive team. Yeah, and the dance competition is introduced at the end of the second act and it's like, oh,

Starting point is 00:18:04 you're supposed to do to women, you find out in the beginning that she's a really good dancer. She's a really good dancer and her dead husband would never dance with her. How dare you spoil that very long title movie.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Spoiler alert, her husband is dead. You find that out right away, guys. It's in the first page of the playbook. It's on the cover. Nobody ever uses that. Nobody even uses the playbook. Yes, he does. He references it.

All the young and lonely girls wait for you. They are by the backstage door. It's weird when it doesn't have any melody. And they're hoping to be the one.
Starting point is 00:27:33 And when you start to sing, you will be there everything. And when you start to sing, every woman will open up her heart and let you in. They don't even say minstrel or gigolo. Yes, they did. The first fucking line is,'t even say minstrel or gigolo. But yes they did. The first fucking line is you're the minstrel gigolo. I was sleeping next to Doug. As my good friend Lennon here says, listen.
Starting point is 00:27:54 I haven't seen so much. Those lyrics are like wishful thinking. That's like a guy that's like It's not wishful thinking. It's the power of suggestion. I'm a gigolo. He's basically like, come meet me by the back door. I'm Christopher Cross. I'm lonely. He did look like a lion. Because poor Shirley left me and I declare this
Starting point is 00:28:12 planet in the name of me. Lennon? Yo. Who are you playing for? Todd. Todd. It's just a bag with a sharp I think it's got a s'mores cupcake inside of it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:26 I can tell there's... Can I... Chris? I wonder if there's drugs in there. Do you have an... What's it? A shit head? That's what it is, right?
Starting point is 00:28:36 What? Isn't it a shit head? Tim didn't even put his name on it. Oh, yeah. He'll have to... It's a shit head, yeah. He'll have to come tell me one at the end. I think there's one on the back of the bag, but the other two... Yeah, that's why I was asking. Tim will, too. So if you lose, then he'll have to... It's shithead, yeah. Is he trying to be shithead or no? He'll have to come tell me one at the end. I think there's one on the back of the bag,
Starting point is 00:28:45 but the other two... Yeah, that's why I was asking. Tim will, too. So if you lose, then he'll have to come over here. I didn't read it out loud. He'll jot it down. Guys, I want you to...
Starting point is 00:28:52 That's very conscientious of you. Can everybody just go home and just listen to some Christopher Cross tonight? Because honestly, he's got such... Is it true that your daughter was conceived during the playing of this record? That's right. That's right.
Starting point is 00:29:04 During Ride Like the Wind. But all the tracks sound like Jason's just saying them there's no music. It's just like riding across the wind apart. It's the opposite of a karaoke album that just has the track and no lyrics. It's just me with no music
Starting point is 00:29:21 reciting lyrics like bad poetry. Because I've got no nowhere to go sailing it's not far down to paradise at least it's not
Starting point is 00:29:32 for me and if the wind is right you can sail away and find tranquility the canvas can do miracles
Starting point is 00:29:40 just you wait and see believe me it's not it's not far down she's your pregnant lyricals. Just you wait and see. Believe me. It's not She's your pregnant dancer. She's your dancer for money. I like it better than
Starting point is 00:29:55 his real music. I agree by the way. I do. Let's put this out as a record. Are you financing records? Yeah, that's what I've been doing. Jason Mantzoukas reads Christopher Cross. It's a new podcast. Seriously, I feel like people would download that. It costs $12.99 an episode.
Starting point is 00:30:13 If I just every week read a new Christopher Cross song, people would, I feel like people would, that's all it is. The entire length of it takes me to read one is the length of the podcast it's like 15 seconds yeah each podcast
Starting point is 00:30:29 costs a hundred dollars good idea monetize it immediately right cause it's that I'm gonna fucking do this it's that great it's sort of a
Starting point is 00:30:38 you know it's a status thing if you have the whole thing yup if you're a completist yeah it's like Armani Exchange exactly how is it our money exchange you just walk in there and give them some stuff and they give you new stuff yeah i mean
Starting point is 00:30:56 buffalo exchange is that what you mean no armani exchange yeah you're paying for the status of wearing the thing that says armani so the money is for the status of wearing the thing that says Armani. So the money is for the status, not for the actual product. Wow. I mean, I didn't want to say that. Did we all fall asleep just then? I didn't want to say it. Are we in a dream scenario? I was like, I'd rather be awake right now.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Doug, I also saw the best movie of the year, Searching for Sugar Man. It's a terrific documentary. Oh, my husband downloaded that album. Oh, it's good. It's good. Yeah. The music is terrific. I downloaded Jason reciting the lyrics to that album.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Sugar Man. Where are you, Sugar Man? Where are you going, Sugar Man? Yeah, he became huge somewhere after south africa yeah after kind of being and it's just like a construction worker in detroit yeah and and but now he's he's big enough there that i assume that that's part of the fun of the movie is that he can yeah everybody thinks he's probably make a living entertaining them down there makes two records in like the late 60s early 70s everybody thinks he's dead he becomes like like the Elvis of South Africa. They think he's as huge as
Starting point is 00:32:06 Elvis. He's like a construction worker in Detroit. They find out he's not dead. He's alive. Spoiler alert. And then he plays to stadiums full of people and his mind employs. That's like that homeless guy that had that radio voice in Detroit on the side of the road and then he got a job
Starting point is 00:32:21 for one day. Yeah, it's exact that was ryan's story yep it's the exact same story it's the same guy that was detroit too i think no columbus thank you for correcting me columbus all right okay lennon will go first um you get to pick a category Okay, Lennon will go first. You get to pick a category. And then we'll go to Jason and then to TJ, who TJ's already... Gives me panic attacks.
Starting point is 00:32:50 He's already having a panic attack. That night I think about it. Thank God we have some natural calm. Oh, thank you. Put some of that in your water, and I think you'll be good to go. Raspberry lemon flavor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:04 That's actually good because I've been just grinding raspberries and lemons into my melatonin drink. I mean, I think you're going to love this. Balances out your calcium that drink does.
Starting point is 00:33:17 You know what? I said it at the beginning. Thank God, because my calcium is crazy out of whack. You know, that there balances out the calcium. My calcium, that there balances out the calcium.
Starting point is 00:33:25 I'm just growing extra bone in places. I have horns. Lennon, would you like at diarrhea volcano suggested Oh, I thought that was a topic. No. Movies with a diarrhea volcano. No. Suggested
Starting point is 00:33:42 Wreck-It Rafe. And that's movies where Rafe Fiennes has sex. So you can narrow it down. It's not the Harry Potter films. That guy's funnier than his username suggests. Celebrating a birthday today is Jeff Bridges. So the films of Jeff Bridges. Or at Martin Urbano suggested Baby It's
Starting point is 00:34:05 Cold Outside. And that, of course, is movies where someone freezes to death. I'm going to go with Wreck It, Rafe. Alright. Wow. Rafe wrecked it in this movie. Leonard Maltin gives it three and a half stars.
Starting point is 00:34:24 It's from 1996, and Leonard calls it mesmerizing. And he also says that it's an exceptional achievement all around. And he lists nine names, nine names total. How many names do you think you can guess it in? LP? Two. All right, so we go to Jason. Nine names total. How many names do you think you can guess it in? L, P. Two. All right, so we go to Jason. She only thinks she needs two.

Starting point is 00:35:24 And the movie is called? The English Patient? That's right! Yay! Did you know it, too? Lennon knew it, too. Some aggressive play right out of the gate there. Boom!
Starting point is 00:35:38 We'll start with Lennon again, but this time we'll go to TJ to switch the order around. Lennon gets to choose, though, between at Wendy D, D-E-E 8. Wendy D 8 suggested me, me, me, me, me. And that's... Is that a certain kind of italics?
Starting point is 00:35:57 Movies. See, put little notes on either end. That's movies that have the word me in the title. At Wiggly Wigs suggested Molar Express. And that's movies
Starting point is 00:36:13 that have dentists in them. And the King of Pancakes category, the number one movie ten years ago to this very date. Number one movie ten years ago. this very date. Number one movie ten years ago. Movies with me in the title or dentist

Starting point is 00:36:46 All right. Two and a half stars from Leonard. He calls this movie very entertaining. He also says it has super duper special effects. Uh-oh. And, uh... and I'm going to pass out breathe
Starting point is 00:37:13 you gotta breathe that's enough what did I say very entertaining and super duper special effects and he lists nine names and has something some sort of dentistry in in there
Starting point is 00:37:28 somewhere how many names you think you can get it in out of nine nine it's a strong opening tj i'd say name that movie what right you can't do it in less than nine? Why not? Does it say somewhere in the constitution of this game that I can't, Jason? Well, it says you're not playing against, you know, a rock or Pete Holmes.
Starting point is 00:37:57 You're playing against a person that's thinking for two right now. Have you started a feud with Pete Holmes? By the way, if there's a podcast feud between you and Pete Holmes, I am in. No, we had fun. We had a good time on that show. That was a real train wreck.
Starting point is 00:38:16 That's what I smoked before. A little train wreck. You really want to say her name? Have all the names. The entire cast. Let me hear the description again. Is that what really want to say her name? Have all the names. The entire cast. Let me hear the description again. Is that what you want to do? Very entertaining.

Starting point is 00:38:51 All right, all right. That was a close one. Jason? I can do it in three names. Let's see. Came to play. Came to play. Now it's my turn?
Starting point is 00:39:01 Mm-hmm. You don't know it. Gotta go less than three. You stinker. He does. He has good bluffing eyebrows, though. They really. Look at him.

Starting point is 00:39:21 All right. Sure. Your three names are Levi Stubbs. Yep. Yep. Bill Murray. Okay. And Christopher Guest.
Starting point is 00:39:33 Okay. What's it called? I'm not positive, but I'm going to go with Little Shop of Horrors. That's correct. I win a gun now. You win. I win a gun. Can I guess? Jason's our winner. That was amazing. I would have gotten that. You did. I would have gotten that. Can I guess?
Starting point is 00:39:45 Jason's our winner. That was amazing. Can I guess? Nicely done. Special effects. It's only because I got thrown. There was just a
Starting point is 00:39:53 Frank Oz was just on something talking about the special effects and how they spent over a million dollars on the ending of that movie and it's just the giant plants, blah, blah, blah. And in the end of the movie everybody dies and so they were like
Starting point is 00:40:08 oh no you can't end the movie this way so they had to reshoot a whole new ending and throw away like this multi-million dollar ending that they had. Great story he told it better but so the special effects that's why the special effects I was like oh I bet it's a little shop of horrors that's good. I thought that's what the movie was
Starting point is 00:40:24 but then special effects threw me because I was like, oh, I bet it's Little Shop of Horrors. That's good. I thought that's what the movie was, but then special effects threw me because I was like, there's just a puppet. Was the 1976 movie Marathon Man? What? Yeah, I'm sure it was probably in there. That's a good dentist movie. That's a good dentist movie. For sure.
Starting point is 00:40:40 For sure. All right. So Jason won, and Todd wrote a shithead on the back of his that's very complicated. And where's Tim, the sting guy? If you can come over here and write down a shithead for me to say at the end of the show. Come on over, Tim.

Starting point is 00:42:46 Have you just gone through life calling them shoulder buttons? I've been calling them shoulder straps for the tip-taps. I say it every time. Well, for somebody who doesn't like a lot of syllables and stuff, that's a lot longer than epilence.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Yeah. But I can sing it so I can remember. Do you want to just come with me and I can pretend that you're my child for a while and I can practice?

Starting point is 00:44:38 He gets in his head about his physicality, so I had to get up and work it out. Yeah, yeah. Once you've seen his impressions, then you go, oh, we should just listen to those impressions. It's just the voice that he does when he does people. Yeah, so he's perfect
