Oh yeah you did. Oh man. A family trip no less. Indeed. So as you know, dad got elective foot surgery because he did not feel like one of his feet

looked the way he wanted it to look. Right, he wanted a pretty foot we've established. He wanted one pretty foot. So anyway, mom has been bearing a great weight being a caregiver to dad. Sure. And I wanted to go visit them. You went and visited them.

I did. And you had a lovely time. I sure did, yeah. It was great. I decided to take Addie with me. Uh-huh. And I should know, the first thing I said to Addie was, do you want to go visit the Poncas?

And she said, no. And then I figured, okay, that's fine. I'll just go on my own. And then I left to bring the boys to school and Alexi sent me a video. As soon as I left, Addie went up to her room, took out her little rolling suitcase, which was her Christmas present this year,

unzipped it and put 12 dresses into her suitcase. And Alexi said, what are you doing? And she said, I'm going to go visit the Poncas. And Alexi said, you're only going for one night. And she said, no, I am gonna go for eight nights. So she packed 11 dresses. Anyway, she was very excited. Then there was an issue, which is,

this was a very last minute trip. And so I did not have time to properly prepare the boys for the fact that I was taking their sister to see their records. Oh, right, yeah. And I'd gone and gotten her a sticker book at Barnes and Noble for the airplane because I knew that she would not be allowed

to watch a video or anything like that. Uh-huh. So I got activities. And then I foolishly left it out on the table. And so we were leaving the next morning and Axel saw this sticker book and I said, oh no, that's for the plane. And he was like, who's going on a plane?

And I said, oh, I'm taking Addie to see the Poncas. And immediate two-boy meltdown. Yeah, yeah. Axel screaming and then Ash just sitting and silently crying. The difference in their personality is fantastic. And sitting and silently crying. The difference in their personality is fantastic. And Ash was silently crying just saying,

I also love my grandparents. And Axel screaming, Alexi like rocking him while he screamed and Addie, no help at all, just walked over and patted him on the knee and said, Axel, you can't come. Axel, you can't come. Axel, you can't come. And he was just making it way worse. But then, next morning, credit to Alexi,

she had managed to sort of calm them down. They'd come to terms with it. And Addie and I went to the airport, having her in the airport alone, worth the price of admission. Oh, I bet. Little backpack, rolling suitcase, a million questions, never stopped talking.

I felt I maybe got more recognized than I've ever been recognized just because I was talking more than I'm ever talking in an airport, because I just constantly had to answer questions. And then we got on the airplane. Not a lot of people on our flight from New York to Boston. The Kayla was the name of the JetBlue flight attendant.

She came over and said, hi Adelaide. And Adelaide was like, how she know my name? Obviously she just sort of done this, read the manifest for the purposes of the kids on the plane, gave her little airplane wings. Wings? They stick on now, they no longer pin, so they stick them on. She's thrilled about that.

I would say she then asked for Kayla or screamed for Kayla 50 times over the course of the 45 minute flight. What did she want from her? Just say hi. Just convo. And she also wanted snacks. Yeah.

Kayla made the mistake of saying, maybe I'll be back later with some snacks, at which point Addie was pretty dead set on knowing her location at all times. Yep. When the flight, when we landed, we had to let, I had to let everybody de-plane, because Kayla was in the back of the flight, when we landed, we had to let, I had to let everybody de-plane because Kayla was in the back of the plane

because Addy wanted to go run and give her a hug. Oh, I bet that was met with some enthusiasm and joy. Kayla got her money's worth for the wings she gave Addy. For the wings and a chewy granola bar, she did very well as far as the affection she got in return. Then we walked up, the cockpit was open, Adi walked right in there, talked to the pilots for a while. Then we obviously we got a car, took the car.

Did she ask the pilots why they say which direction the wind is coming from and what the visibility is like? She like, who wanna know that? Who wanna know that? Who wanna know that? No one wants to know that. Yeah, so then, but the best is, again, we were surprising dad, so it was not his job

to be where we needed him to be. He had lunch plans. Yeah. We got home, got to hang out with mom for a little bit. He was also having lunch with an old friend. So we didn't want to go right away and sort of ruin that. Right. And so about an hour into dad's lunch,

we went to the restaurant. My plan was I would walk in, surprise dad, while Addie hung back with mom. And I just said, just wait a minute. And then I'll say to dad, you know, within a minute I'll be like, I'm actually not the surprise. And then Addie would walk in. Addie was not having this.

Addie very much felt that she should surprise dad first. Yeah, she's the tip of the spear. She's the tip of the spear. And so, and the amount of my life with Addie right now is her being like, you wait here. Meanwhile, my boys have never wanted me to wait. They've never wanted to go anywhere without me. The amount that she's like, you wait here.

Even when we were at the airport, she wanted to take the escalator without me. She goes, you get on when I'm at the top. I'm like, no, it's not how this is gonna work. So Addie walks in, you've seen the video. I have seen the video. What I don't understand in the video is, did she know where dad was gonna be?

Because there were a bunch of people in there. No. And his back was to her. And she never had a doubt. It was like she like locked on with some targeted thing. And- It's crazy. It's a crowded restaurant. She immediately walks over to a Pancalleri,. It's crazy. It's a crowded restaurant.

She immediately walks over to a Pankajeri, as he's known by his grandchildren and by the listeners of the pod at this point, let's be honest. So she walks over, the best thing is the amount that, you know, Kayla, the flight attendant would say, where are you going?

I gotta go see Pankajeri. And it's just like crazy words. So she walks over and dad looks at her and he goes, hey, but you can tell he's not, he can't make any sense of it. Yeah, I spoke to him and he's like, I knew right away it was Addie, but it like just there was a cognitive break

because he couldn't figure out how it was possible that this three-year-old girl, his granddaughter, was standing next to him. Without an adult. Right. So then he goes, hey! And then he looks around and he sees me because I'm at the door of the restaurant filming it. Right.

And then he processes and he looks at her and goes, whoa! And then he says, this is my granddaughter. And it's a big hug. Anyway, I showed the video, the boys have watched the video 50 times and they all day were walking around going, hey, whoa! So that was just A+. Dad was so excited.

And then, yeah, I mean, it was just 24 hours, but you know, having a kid in your childhood home is very special. Yeah. Even though my bedroom is now an office that also had a pipe burst and so you really can only just look at it from the doorway. But yeah, you guys did a bunch of stuff.

You went to a playground, you went to the library. Went to the playground. Give it up for Hurry, who got on every single thing, every single dumb thing built for children that Addy insisted she get on. There was like a bumblebee thing that you sort of rock back and forth. Great picture. And, yep, Hurry had to get on a bumblebee,

she had to get on a spaceship, she had to walk around. Dad was moving around pretty well, but he couldn't go in the snow because of his foot. And I took a picture of Dad and Albert. Did I send it to you? I think so, yeah, in the car? Yeah. Albert looks more like Dad than either of us.

Albert, I will say, Albert the old English sheepdog, I didn't tell you this before, but when I got home, I pulled in and mom let Albert out the front door so he could come and greet me. And Albert and I have a pretty good thing going on. We like each other very much. And he was so excited and he was like squeaking and those little excited cries.

And then he turned around and I was scratching his butt and he just threw up, because he was so excited. He like threw up his breakfast. And then seemed a little stunned, but then just like ran towards the house, towards mom and dad. It was, yeah, it was quite the greeting.

She had this thing where she kept walking over to Albert's dog food bowl, and she would bring it over to where he was and sit it down. And then he would just eat the whole bowl. And then she would pick it up and bring it. And they were like, he never does this. He only eats when he's hungry.

And I'm like, do you ever bring the food over to wherever he is? Yeah, I mean, well, in their defense, they put his dog food down and if he wants to eat, he can eat it. Right, of course. Lotta hide and seek. Not a ton of hiding spots in our childhood home,

but there's a lot of- Well, yeah, from the two pictures I saw, pretty easy hiding spots. Addy in the tub, just with her head down. Just covering her head. Yeah. And then dad in his shower with a towel over his head, but also Albert sitting next to him.

Yeah. We were saying the key about hide and seek when you're trying to find dad is just look for wherever Albert is, cause Albert will not leave his side. Yeah. Definitely planned on Addie was gonna sleep in your bed. Uh-huh.

And I was gonna sleep in the guest room. Addie felt very strongly about this. She did not want me to sleep in a bed with her. You have the biggest bed, well, mom and dad. You have a queen. Sure. And also she's never slept in a bed before., mom and dad. You have a queen. Sure. And also she's never slept in a bed before. And I kind of thought middle of a queen,

best chance she's not gonna roll over. Pillows on either side of her. So I had a plan. And then, and she tells you when she's ready for bed, which is shocking, but she's like, it is time for books and bath and bed. And so I was very excited because mostly I wanted to catch up

with mom and dad as well. And so I was very excited because mostly I wanted to catch up with mom and dad as well. And so I get her into bed and the minute I think I get her into bed, she's definitely has anxiety about, I don't know this bedroom, I don't know what's going on. And also you don't have curtains. Oh yeah, they're like little wispy things. They're not like, it wasn't my choice to have those.

No, but it was not built to block out light. Correct. And so it was way brighter than she's used to. And so she's like, don't leave, don't leave. And so the one time I left, because I thought she was, I was like, I'm gonna leave now and you're gonna fall asleep and everything's gonna be good.

And I went down and I said to mom and dad like, so I think she's good and I'm not sure. And like literally, I think she had just followed me out, like as I left. And she's in a sleep stack too, which is like a hard thing to move in. Like she looks like a sack of potatoes. And like, I'm like, I think she's asleep.

And she's like, dad, I want to talk to you. So finally got her to fall asleep, which is great. And then I had a nice time with mom and dad. But then we also, you know, went out, had lunch. Yeah. Like you said, library. And you know, it was probably only 24 hours in the house, but it was a jackpot.

In that way, but you know, we've talked to guests about how kids remember things. Like she's really, really gonna remember this trip. Yeah. Yeah. And it's fun. There's like, there's lots of, you know, there's lots of little drawers and cupboards and things in our house. Not a drawer with my baseball cards. Now, again, there's a high likelihood that mom and dad sent me my baseball cards, which they shouldn't have done because I don't have a place for them.

They have so much empty space. I had one file cabinet that had all my comic books and all my baseball cards. They wanted, for some reason, they got it in their head that I couldn't have a file cabinet in the home. They sent me all my comic books. I kept them in the basement of my apartment where we have a storage facility, flooded, ruined.

But heaven forbid, now they're living a full life of retirement because there's not one black file cabinet, two drawers. And then I'm like, I knew exactly where to look and it's like not even there. Yeah. And then as you found out, I said, well, I'll go check the attic. Nothing's in the attic. All gone.

We had a box full of all of our old stuffed animals up there. Where are those? Although I did see your stuffed animal, Popsicle, as I believe, still in your closet. Popsicle's survival is really, truly something to see. Yeah. I think if you checked his belly, it would look like he's eaten a thousand moths.

He's hungry for moths. And, hey, shout out to mom and also dad. Dad said, you know, because there's not a lot of two-way traffic where both directions are praise with mom and dad. Oh, yeah. But dad said mom's been an incredible caregiver. And she said, thank you. And he goes, and no, she goes, and you've been a very good patient.

And I was very, yeah. Cause I do think he maybe wasn't that fussy. Did you get a look at that foot? It's beautiful. It's like Angelina, it's like Angelina Jolie's foot 1995. I guess that's the picture he gave him. Just gorgeous. We ate off it.

He was talking about how he wanted to like send a picture of that foot and I just don't know that you could, you can publish it. I mean, I think a lot of perverts online would love to get their eyes on that foot. Oh man, I was giving him a hard time about his foot and he's like, show me your foot. And like my foot looks like a, I have a nice foot.

And I took my sock off and he was like, oh. Yeah. Yeah. I would say both mom and dad have less toes, more talons. Would you say that? I mean, I will, Addy, you know, we're giving dad's foot a lot of grief. Addy spent a lot of time asking mom about her toes

and why they go in the directions they go. Yeah, that's a fair question. And I don't think Curry's got an answer for it. No, we, the future, based on genetics, the future of our toes are not good. I'm gonna start wearing a, like, metal, I'm gonna try to get, do they do Invisalign for feet? I should do that now, just like, you know, preventative.

Yeah, like the equivalent of like Forrest Gump leg braces, but furrier for your toes. Mom's toes, it's like somebody ran in and said, The equivalent of like Forrest Gump leg braces, but furrier from toes. Yes, but furrier toes. Mom's toes, it's like somebody ran in and said, "'Everybody scramble!' Well, yeah. She's like the scene from Forrest Gump where they fall off, the braces fall off,

and then the toes just- Yeah, they wouldn't, yeah. No braces could hold her feet. Well, I guess this is with a little side pod called Foot Talk. If you're into that sort of thing, you're welcome if you're not. Apologies to this week's sponsors. We're going to get right up against some pretty bad visuals. But then, yeah, Addie, Flight Home, great.

She was so good. Also, she took two things. There was a old, like a Muppets baby. These aren't from our youth. I feel like mom just like still buys chintzy things at like garage sales and stuff. There was a little Road Runner toy and a little like Kermit Muppet baby toy. And Addie brought, they said, mom said she could have them.

And the entirety of the Flight Home, Addie was just talking said, mom said she could have them and the entirety of the flight home, Addie was just talking to them and playing with them. And it was so great because I was fully cooked. Yeah. Well, that's great. I'm glad you guys got up there. I'm glad too. And yeah, it's wonderful.

And now of course, both boys want to go and they both want to go on their own. So this is all, this is backfired. But they might go together. I would like to get them there together. I think they'd have fun. You can just send them on their own too. You can unaccompanied minor them.

Yeah. All right, dude. We got a podcast for people to listen to. The guest is Andy Richter, Delightful Fella. Yeah. And we hope you enjoy him. Family trips with the Myers brothers. Family trips with the Myers brothers.

Here we go. Yes! Hello! Hello! Hey, pal! Hi, fellas. Nice to see you! How are you?

Good to see you guys. Sorry I'm late. Oh, that's fine. I was just telling Samantha, I was on the way to school and got a call that I had forgotten the kids' fucking lunch. Oh, yeah. So I had to turn around. That's better than forgetting the kids flat out. No. No, that I couldn forgotten the kids fucking lunch. Oh yeah. That's better than forgetting the kids flat out.

No, no, that I couldn't do. She's too noisy. How noisy, how young is this noisy child? She's gonna be five. I am back in the baby business. Second round, right? Second round, yeah, I'm a fucking LA cliche. Although, Although the...

The only difference is that my wife is like a grown-up. She's 48, you know? Oh, yeah, that's... Yeah, you've broken out of the cliche. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I mean, but I am... I am like... There's a lot of old dads in LA. And like, people online will be like, wait, why do you have a five-year-old? Aren't you like 60? I'm like, yeah, but it's... and I'm only 58, goddammit.

I don't know if I mentioned this on the podcast before, but I have a friend who's in a similar situation and someone gave him a shirt that says dad or grandpa. Yeah, yeah. I have not gotten that except from like little kids in her, there's this one little girl that's just fucking got it out for me, who's just like, are you her grandpa?

Fuck you, dare you. I'm one of the older dads in my boys class as well. How old are your kids? My kids are eight, six and three and I'm 51. And my son the other day said, he goes, hey, I think you look good for 50. And I was like, I don't know what to even do with that. I don't know what, I don't know why,

what you thought you were. Thank you. Yeah, I'm like, all right. Eight year old. By the way, how is the second round? Do you feel like a completely different parent or are you cognizant of things you're doing differently that are an improvement?

I am a different parent. Yes. It actually feels like, in some ways, like pre-grandparenting. Because, you know, like, my kids, my older kids are adults, you know, they're 19 and 24. And so it feels like that thing of where you get kids, but you don't have all the sort of like worry of it. And I'm still her father, but I don't have the worry that I, like, I, on the playground, I see a 32-year-old dad with a five-year-old

and this thousand-yard stare, and I just want to tell him, it's okay, you know? A, they're hard to kill, these things, these kids. They stay alive whether you want them to or not, so relax. Um, and, and yeah, so I mean, there's just, I don't sweat a lot of this stuff, They stay alive whether you want to or not. So relax. And yeah, so I mean, there's just, I don't sweat a lot of this stuff.

And if she doesn't, you know, it's like feeding her. It's like, well, all right. You know, if she eats a hard boiled egg and an apple, like, okay, that's kind of a meal, you know what I mean? It's like, it's just, if you can piece it together, it's fine. Is part of it that your first two turned out to be like good adults, good young adults, and that gives you a bit more confidence to say, all right? Yes, somewhat.

Although, you know, there's still anxiety. I have, I, in terms of like, how is it gonna turn out? I have more anxiety for my older kids because they're closer to adulthood, they're closer to being out on their own. And it's, I wouldn't wanna be 19 or 24 in this particular world. You know?

And I also remember what it was like to, you know, my daughter's a freshman in college and I also remember what it was like to, my daughter's a freshman in college and I just remember what that was like. That's the truth, cause I don't remember what it's like to be five, but I do remember what it was like to be 19. And of course. And it sucked. It sucked.

It was not, there was no sort of like salad days. It was, it just fucking sucked. I, that my, a lot of my friends, most of my friends, you know, had kids 15 years earlier than me. Yeah. And the amount, when I had babies, like little babies, and I wasn't sleeping and I was saying, oh, why didn't you guys tell me how bad it was?

They were all, they all told me it's, oh, it's so much worse when they're out of the house. Like when they're in the world and you know, they would give anything to have them crying in a crib next door. Yes. Just to be like, they're here. Yeah have them crying in a crib next door. Just to be like, they're here. Yeah, I think that's another aspect of it too,

is that like, it is much simpler. It's more simple and the stakes are kind of lower. It's like, all right, you're training them to, they're teething, okay, they're teething. You're training them to sleep, okay, yeah. You know, I mean, it's not like, it's not like- The sleep training is funny because you know, eventually they're teething. You're training them to sleep. Okay, yeah, you know, I mean, it's not like... It's not like... The sleep training is funny because you know

eventually they're gonna figure it out. Yeah, everybody does. Some people don't. Yeah. Some people don't. My wife's not a great sleeper and neither's yours, Suf. Oh, that's true, my wife's not a great sleeper. Yeah, but you know, but still they can do it on their own.

You know? Yeah, that, true. They don't cry if you leave them alone in a bed, you know? Yeah, that's true. I mean, as far as I know, I don't know what your guys' setup is. Yeah, no, no, no, you're right, Andy. Yeah.

So Yorkville, Illinois. Yes. But then where is that? That is about 60 miles straight west of Chicago. Okay. But it was a, it's more sort of been swallowed up by the suburban sprawl of the Chicagoland area, which is what it's called. Yeah.

Which I never even questioned until I got out of Chicago and they're like, wait, Chicagoland? Like yeah, that's what it's called. It used to be a small town unto itself, a little island out there, like all the little farm islands in Illinois. But now it's got big box stores and, you know, big strip malls and stuff. But like, I remember half the town turned out when we got McDonald's and was there at 6 a.m. when it opened up. You know, it was very exciting to get a McDonald's,

you know. Yeah. Do you have any idea what the population was when you were growing up there? I wanna say like about 7,500. Okay. Yeah. I think that was it. I'm not exactly sure. I could be wrong, but I have no idea what it is now. Yeah, I'm not great with that stuff.

But I do know that there's more people there now because people, it's not just like into the city and out of the city. Now everybody works everywhere. So it's, you know, there's no sort of like flow of rush hour. It's just at rush hour, it's busy because people are going in all directions. Yeah. Right. There.

It is funny that Chicagoland thing that it does stretch 60 miles in some directions because obviously New York is a gigantic city, but I feel like once you get out of New York, you're out of New York. Oh yeah. I'm amazed at how woodsy it is, like five minutes out of New York. That was a total surprise to me.

I just figured it would be, you know, it would just keep going. Like everything would be Yonkers all the way to Vermont. But you know. Well they just build vertically in New York. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it helps. And you have three other siblings? I do. Or three siblings.

I have an older brother who is three years older than me. And then I have a younger brother and sister who are twins and they're actually my, they have a different dad. So they're half, they're actually my, they have a different dad so they're half, they're nine years younger. Got you. Close with your brother? Yeah, pretty close. I mean, pretty close. I'm closest to my sister, my younger sister. She's, I don't know, she and I just, I also too, I was raised by women. I like, I end up talking.

I have an easier time talking to women than to men, I think. You, with a nine year age gap, when did that, when do you believe that there was a time where you're like, oh, this is, I'm close with this person as a friend? Like, that's a big difference. Like it got to be into adulthood because I was, you know, I was, I was, when I think about it,

you know, I was gone, I was out of the house at like 21. And they were, you know, they're still whatever, you know, was it 12? Yeah, way to go, math friend. They were 12. And so like, I didn't like their whole high school years, I didn't really know very much and they, you know, and they were little kids when I left. Um, so yeah, it was definitely into adulthood and especially, um, you know, also then I was on television by that time too.

So it was, it was sort of, I mean, I don't know, you know, it just was like, it was a good excuse for them to come visit me in New York, you know. How young were you when you first were on television? 27. That's amazing. Well, that's how old I was when I started in SNL. I think 27's a good, I think too young is hard. Yeah.

I think 27's just about right. I think so too. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I, yeah, it's, it's, the, the, the, the abuse that you were opening yourself up to, especially in comedy. And I mean, you, you know, it was different because you were, it is, there is a difference. It's similar, but like you were going on

to an already established institution. 100%. And we were starting out new and it was, and we were like such an easy target. And I read such mean shit about me, and like I've said many times, it's like I never knew there were so many ways to call a person fat...

Uh, until my dream came true, and I got on television. Oh, hooray! You, yeah, and also when you started at SNL, the stress is, am I even gonna get on? Yes, yes. Whereas your stress... It's a different thing, yeah, and also when you started SNL, the stress is, am I even gonna get on? Yes, yes, it's a different thing, yeah. Your stress was that you were on every single night. Yes.

There was nowhere to hide. Yes, and are they gonna, is it gonna last? Although, honestly, I was old enough to kinda handle it, but I was also still sort of young enough and inexperienced enough. And also possibly just have like a mechanism in my head of compartmentalization that is just a survival mechanism that I learned from dysfunctional childhood, you know, where it was just like, oh, there's all kinds of hostility and weirdness and anxiety and stress

because this could all go away and I don't know what the fuck would happen to me if I had all went away, but I'm just gonna shove that in the box and just show up to work and be like, hey guys, what kind of funny stuff are we doing today? You know? That's good, that was nice

that we built those boxes for ourselves. Yes, and Conan was very good about not letting us know. Conan and Jeff Ross, they were good about not letting us know how bad it was, because it was, you know, I think there was even one point we were actually canceled on like a Friday, and so he had to sort of sit with that all weekend, and then Monday they're like, no, all right, we'll give you another couple of weeks.

I don't have to tell you that we're partnering with Maker's Mark to celebrate spirited women like Margie Samuels. You definitely do not, because I made the trip to the Maker's Mark Distillery in Laredo, Kentucky. The same Maker's Mark that Margie was the co-founder of? Absolutely, that's the one. And you, I believe you brought a spirited woman with you. I did, yeah. My wife, Mackenzie, who, you know,

is one of the strongest, toughest gals I know and inspires me with her work ethic every day. She, you know, she moved out to California to work at a barn and do some training, and then that barn eventually was gonna get sold, and she struck out on her own and now has this thriving business where she trains people and rides horses, and she works her tail off. It's really something else.

Also, Margie, shout-out, original designer behind the iconic red wax dip. Yep. The label and even the Maker's Mark name. You did some dipping while you were there, right, Posh? I did do some dipping. We were there for a long tour, and we dipped our own bottles, which was very exciting.

They're very comfortable pants. And they look good. That's like, sometimes you sacrifice looks when you dial up the comfort, but that's not the case with Public Rec pants. And I like them so much that I bought a pair for my father-in-law and then I bought a pair for our father and just yesterday he was like, these are the pants you bought me. Great. I said, do you like them? He says, I love them, I wear them all the time. And last time we talked about public rec pants

I was saying, you know, they almost feel like sweatpants but they look nicer but they've got a whole array of pants over a public rec varying degrees of stretch but all that look great and moving up to I think you know the sort of the high end is the VIP chinos VIP. The VIP chinos? VIP that stands for very important pants. And can you get me in on these? You obviously got to connect over there can you get me into this VIP? You obviously got to connect over there. Can you get me into this VIP? All right, all right, good, good, good. Yeah. I mean, we got to hook up,

and we'll tell you about later. But those are like, those are pants you would feel comfortable wearing to like a wedding. They've got, you know, pants that are great to play golf in. Posh, would you tell me some of the colors they got? I mean, they're classics.

Navy, dark olive, stone gray. You know, not nonsense colors of pants. Yeah. You're gonna look like an adult when you're wearing these pants. Also, dark olive, stone gray. You know, not nonsense colors of pants. You're gonna look like an adult when you're wearing these pants. Also, you know, sometimes you want to wear a super comfy pair of pants to, like, get on an airplane. And sometimes people will wear pajamas. And you know what I think of those people? You don't care for them.

I do not care for them. You don't have to look terrible to be comfortable. Yeah. Yeah. You, I think, probably look better than most people on airplanes, Posh. Yep. You dress like a pilot.

Yeah, well that's, cause I wanna get that second bag of pretzels.

Although I think I was happy about it. I don't remember being unhappy about it. And I remember because they were twins and also too because there wasn't a lot of room for, in our household, for men to be like, I'm going to watch the game. It was like, fuck that, you're doing dishes. So from an early age, I was taking care of babies. Yeah, I was going to say, were you a babysitter? Absolutely.

And a diaper changer and a kid bather and all of that. So I mean, I've been, you know, I've started taking care of little kids when I was nine years old. Gotcha. And that's like all of it, you know, like I say, changing diapers, getting them dressed, putting them to bed, waking them up in the morning,

getting them ready for school. Were you good at those things or was it sort of like, what did you put these kids in today, Andy? I think I was pretty good at it, you know what I mean? Was your brother much help, your older brother? Was he doing the same thing? Was everyone sort of called into action? I don't, I mean, and this could just totally be my memory,

but it's like, I think I did a lot more. But I mean, that could just be because I'm the hero of every story I tell. But I don't, yeah, no, we both were expected. And I mean, it was like there was, we had a lot of chores to do. Which, like, that's one thing. I was not good at assigning my older kids chores, you know? Like, they didn't have to do a lot of chores. And so now they're helpful, and they're, you know, but it's like, it's not the same. Like, they don't understand just, like, how much of life is eating shit and doing just, like, drudgery kind of work, you know? And...

It's amazing that no one's created a machine that will fold your laundry. Yeah. It's just amazing. Oh, and folding laundry is the one. It's the worst. Oh, my God. I will clean out a toilet all day

compared to fucking folding laundry. I don't know what it is about it. It just, I think I just like get, I'm like a bear with a violin, you know? Like it's like, I just, I don't know how to do this. You know? Also my wife, Alexi, is Joshua the test, very particular about how you fold laundry.

So it's not enough just to fold it. Right. That's the most heartbreaking thing is when you try to do a solid and you fold the laundry and then you just watch them refold it. And then you sort of want to say, well, look, I mean, if I'm just going to do it, so you do it again, I feel like I probably just shouldn't do it.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Exactly. And then, well, they will accuse you of a learned helplessness. My ex-wife used to do that, because like if I fucked up the laundry and did the classic put an orange sock in with the white, and it's like, no, I'm not that calculated.

I just have a terribly short attention span. And there probably is some like passive aggressive like, oh, you know, just throw it all in the wash and then start it and not notice that there's an orange sock in with all the whites. Was Chicago a early beacon for you? Did you feel the pull to Chicago? Was that a place that you would go with your family

from Yorkville? We wouldn't, well, first of all, we were too small town and the city was too scary. Yeah. And so no, we'd go there for Bears games and Cubs games and occasional museum trips. And then there was a Christmas tradition of getting on the train and going in and going

to Marshall Field's, the big department store for Christmas time. Was that on Michigan Ave? Yeah, yeah. And it's still there. It's a Macy's now, but it's like, it's this big, beautiful old department store and they had this giant Christmas tree and you'd eat lunch underneath it and my aunt would take me and my grandma would take me. But yeah, no, it wasn't until I was a teenager and started going to concerts that, that we actually started to, you know, use the city the way that a city should be used.

And even then it was fucking terrifying, you know? And it wasn't until I, because I started out at University of Illinois and then I transferred to, I just happened to be wearing Columbia. Yeah, I noticed, yeah. Columbia College, Chicago for film school. And that was when I really started getting to know the city, because I was commuting in to school and then really just kind of wandering around in a way that I had never done before.

Would you take the L in? Could you take the L at the metro? Yeah, there's a Burlington Northern, it's a commuter train that you could take in. And that's what I did. I did that a lot, but then I also, I would also drive. My mom had a van for her business that I used to drive. And for film school, that makes you very popular. Yeah, they have a van.

Cause there's lots of gear and stuff. Were you a road trip family? Were you an airplane family when you guys took trips? We were a little bit of both. A lot of my travel, a lot of any sort of vacation travel had the underlying sadness of a broken home because my mom and dad were divorced and my dad lived in Bloomington, Indiana. How far was that from Yorkville? It's about, I want to say it's about a four and a half, five hour drive.

Okay, so it's no small thing. Yeah, it's no small thing. Um, but I will, I will say like, my, I used to see my dad like twice a year, I think, and I can't imagine being four hours away from my kids and only seeing them twice a year, I think. And I can't imagine being four hours away from my kids and only seeing them twice a year. Yeah. I will say that. Nor can I.

Yeah. Can I ask, did you need to have kids to know that was weird or were you as a child, did you think that was strange? No, I needed to have kids. Gotcha. When I had kids, there were a lot of things. And not just, you know, there was a lot of things where I was like, wait a minute.

That seems fucked up. Wait a minute. Like, you know, you shouldn't- How old were you when your parents got divorced? I was, I think seven. Okay. I think seven. No, wait, no, no, I was four.

I was like four or five because I started kindergarten in Yorkville. So, which was where my grandparents lived because my mom left Bloomington and went to Yorkville to live with her parents. So we were, you know, we moved back in with my grandparents. And I remember not understanding it at all and like wondering where my dad was. But most of the travel then ended up being either

driving halfway to like this town kind of halfway between Bloomington, Indiana and Yorkville, Illinois like just at a truck stop and doing a swap off at a truck stop, or taking the train, just my brother and I taking the Amtrak from Joliet, Illinois to Bloomington, Indiana. And spending, you know, doing that a lot throughout my childhood.

How young were you, do you think, the first time you took the train by yourself? Oh, I bet you probably eight, you know? Wow, so your brother's like 11? Yeah, yeah. I think that they were like, you know. Yeah, I mean, I don't know that I would do that, but it kinda seems like, eh, you know?

I think it makes a lot of sense in that era to be like. Yeah, well, maybe in Illinois, Indiana, like. sense in that era to be like, yeah, well, yeah. In Illinois, Indiana, like. The conductor is gonna tell you it's time to get off. Yeah, and I mean, and it's not an unusual thing. Like you still do kind of see it, you know, occasionally when you're somewhere, you know, like. Although I can't remember the last time

I saw a little kid flying alone, which I have seen in my life. Yeah, I feel like I've seen that, those unaccompanied minors. Yeah, but I have. It my life. Yeah, I feel like I've seen that, those unaccompanied minors. Yeah, but it happened, it used to happen more, I think. Yeah, I think it probably did happen more. But it was, I mean, I look at it too, like my grandmother was born in China.

Her parents were missionaries, and she was sent to like boarding school at like age five with her seven year old brother. They put him on a boat for like a one week trip. Like up the Yanksy or something. I don't know, you know? So that's like, it is a different thing. You know, people used to mail their kids.

You know, have you seen those pictures on old old book? So like you just put a tag on them and like how much 50 cents to go to Cheyenne? Here you go. That's, yeah, that's true. We got, we have, they're all too, they're all too sheltered now. Did you, when you were on the train, were you excited? Was that a thing? You were like, oh, we're gonna go see dad? Or did it feel more like duty? I was always, no, I was always very excited to see my dad. And it was really, you know, and I used to,

when I knew he was coming to get us, cause I mean, occasionally he would come all the way up to get us. And when I knew he was coming, I would like be waiting outside in the cold sometimes for him to get there. So definitely there was, I missed having my dad around and I, you know, and it definitely was a deficit.

Did he, do you feel like he understood it was incumbent upon him to be like a best dad in the time that he had you guys? I think, yeah, I think that intellectually he would think that, but I- Right. He didn't- Wasn't like a 24 hour party once you were hanging out? No, no, no, it was not.

It was, I mean, and in fact, he would still, he was an instructor at IU in Russian, the Russian language, he taught Russian. But he never finished his PhD work, so he never got on tenure track, so he was always paid less than a real professor. He waited tables on Friday and Saturday nights, and that would be his walking around money.

And so he always, that was always the story was, well, I have to work, I have to do this because I need the money. And, you know, and then that was, that was like another thing when I became an adult and I was like, well, why didn't you just get your tenure? Like, why didn't you? Like, you know, because when I was younger, I used to think like, yeah, because didn't you just get your tenure? Like, why didn't you? Right. Like, you know, cause when I was younger,

I used to think like, yeah, cause he had, you know, I didn't want to, it's seven years of, of continuous publishing and I just didn't want it. And I was like, oh cool, my dad didn't want to write a bunch of papers. Like, yeah, I get it. I get it, dad. And then when I had kids, I was like,

wait a minute, I don't get it. I do not get, wait, if you had just written some papers for seven years, you would have been, I mean, wealthy. Those guys, you know, like professors in a small town, they make a good living, you know? Yeah, yeah. When your dad was waiting tables, if you were visiting him,

would you and your brother hang out at the restaurant? Yes. We would sometimes, I don't know why this would happen. Like I imagine, I think that, because I do remember he would have babysitters kind of watch us. But there were times when we would go to the restaurant at the end of his shift and wait for him to get off.

I don't remember how we got there. Like, I feel like maybe there, like somebody would watch us and then drop us off there, you know, at like 10 or whatever. Um, and, but I do remember sitting there and it was, uh, it was a restaurant called Sully's Oaken Bucket, uh, like, and It had a big old Oaken Bucket. In fact, in the movie Breaking Away, you see because that was shot in Bloomington, Indiana, you see the Oaken Bucket in one of the scenes downtown,

which was very thrilling for us when we were young. But we used to sit there and it was an Irish, it was like a fancy restaurant. It was Irish and they used to play Irish music and it imprinted on me a distaste for Irish music for the rest of my life. Because then living in Chicago too, Irish music was around all everywhere. It was like diddle-dee, diddle-dee, diddle-dee-dee. And I just, and I'm, you know, I still to this day,

I'm like, oh my gosh, so maudlin and all this, you know? And then when they said you have a chance to work with someone named Conan O'Brien, was your first instinct? I was like, all right. Well, you know what, I mean, he actually, he's not, you know, you know, he's Irish, but you know, it's like, it's, everyone's like, oh, Harvard guy, it's like, he does not, you know, he's Irish, but it's like,

it's everyone's like, oh, Harvard guy. It's like, he does not, he's not like crowing about being going to Harvard, you know? It's like, he's not, it's almost embarrassing because of the way people bring it up. And I think Irishness can be that way too. It's like, oh, let's talk about the Emerald Isles. Like, oh, really, do we have to?

I will say the, Sully's Oaken Bucket is a magnetic to me. I feel very drawn if I was in a town and I saw a place called Sully's Oaken Bucket. Oh, yeah, yeah. I would want to go there. Oh, 100%. If I, today, I mean, it's not there anymore, but yeah, that would be like, I cannot, like, I mean, it's not there anymore, but yeah, that would be, like, I cannot...

Like, you know, my wife is used to it, but, and my ex-wife was used to it too, but like, just a shitty old diner, I'm like, ooh, I gotta go check that place out, you know? Like, where everyone is 30 years older than me, oh yeah, I gotta go there, you know? There was a place, there was an Irish bar that Josh, I dragged Josh to plenty of times on Hudson

called Dublin Six, and it was just like a classic Irish pub. And like it used to be the place that Polar and I would go get drinks and it would became like the SNL bar. And when new people would join the cast, you would be like, oh, meet us here. And I remember Sandberg being like, I thought the bars that SNL people went to would be so much cooler than this. I can't like, oh, meet us here. And I remember Sandberg being like, I thought the bars the SNL people went to would be so much cooler than this.

I can't believe. Again, he's like, I can't believe you're taking me to a bar where, like, older people are. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, we should be on top of the world in New York City. And you're like, oh, yeah, no lie. The best thing, no doorman. Yeah, no doorman and a half a block from my apartment.

Yeah, the music isn't, like, deafening, you know? You don't have to talk. Yeah, you doorman and a half a block from my apartment. Yeah, the music isn't like deafening, you know? You can talk. Yeah, you can talk, you can wear whatever you want. No, I never, like the notion of standing in line to get into a place where the drinks are too expensive was always insane to me. And now we're gonna take a quick break to hear from one of our sponsors.

Here we go. Hi everybody, I'm Seth Meyers. And I'm Josh Meyers. And I'm sorry, ma'am, we haven't met. And you are? This is our mom, Hilary Meyers, and you might be wondering why we're sitting with our mother on the front steps of a home. Well, we're happy to tell you, we are partnering with Makersmark on family trips to celebrate iconic women like the Makersmark co-founder Margie Samuels in honor of Women's History Month.

And let me just say, Mom, you are also iconic to us. Oh, thank you. Yeah, a key part of our history. Yeah. And I should say one of the ways that you're very impressive to us is you were just a key part of our lives. As an educator, our mother was a key part of many people's lives. She taught French to middle schoolers who have taken that French to many

of Paris's finest bibliotechs. Yes, indeed, I've heard that. History is full of stories of women like you, mom, who challenged the status quo with the idea of making something better. And a lot of us wouldn't be where we are today without the efforts of those amazing women. Margie Samuels is one of those women.

She was the original designer behind the iconic red wax dip, the label, and even the Maker's Mark name. Without the impact of Margie Samuels' vision, Maker's Mark wouldn't be the brand that it is today. She was a pioneer in the whiskey industry who inspired those who worked alongside her and paved the way for those who came after her. Her mark can still be felt on the Maker's Mark

that we all know and love today. And it's really special for us during Women's History Month to be with someone who is the key to our history. And if we could share a few special moments, I remember you were the most supportive audience I could ever have, starting off our comedy careers. And I remember when I was doing Weekend Update, you and dad were in the audience one night,

and I told a joke, it was not a good joke on Weekend Update, and 280 people in the audience and the only person who laughed was you. Now, I'm sure that's because you laughed at every joke before and after it, and the only person who laughed was you. Now, I'm sure that's because you laughed at every joke before and after it, but it was a very piercing realization that you were the only person who liked the joke.

And I thought, well, at least I'm the only one who noticed. And then the next day I called Josh and the first thing he said was, well, at least mom liked it. Also, anytime we've ever had any surgery, no matter how minor, I had a small knee thing. Seth had something in Amsterdam, but my mother, you've never missed a single surgery. Oh, no.

If my boys are being cut into, I'm there. Yeah. She's there. And she came out to LA once and I had a very minor knee thing and she had scheduled four days there. I was walking the same day and then we just hung out for four days. Yeah, which was great. Yeah.

I think that says a lot about how much you love us and how little you like hanging out with dad. He's right behind the camera, by the way. And based on a lot of these things that we've said, I think you all understand that we love you so much, and we know a thing or two about the impact that spirited women have had on our world. We are two of the luckiest men I know

and it's only because there is a woman like you in our lives and we are so excited to be able to raise a glass of Maker's Mark to the woman who made us who we are today. Cheers. Let me just say, I think Josh is a little bit luckier because he's your favorite. Oh, don't say that. That's right. Well, then maybe you should stop thinking it.

Cheers, Mom. Cheers. You too can celebrate the spirit of women in your life with a free personalized label to go with a bottle of Maker's Mark.

Who did we choose? I think it's you, Seth. That really speaks to how bad Josh's handwriting is. Because it kills her to save me.

It kills her to save me. By the way, mine's not even that good. -♪ Here we go. Do you remember first time you guys were on a plane? I don't remember, not specifically, but I do know that it would have been to go visit my Aunt Pat, my mom's older sister, who was my favorite person in the whole world,

who was really, really fun. And she lived, it would have, I think it probably would have been in Atlanta. She lived in Atlanta, and I think we flew down to Atlanta shortly after my mom got remarried and we drove to her house and her husband was, he was like some financial guy and they had this beautiful house kind of in a very woodsy area and they had a Doberman that wouldn't let us out of the car. Because when we got there, my aunt was at the grocery store

and the dog wouldn't let us out of the car. So we had to sit in the car and wait until she got home. And then it's just funny because it's like, it's just, I have a big dog now that's the same way that probably wouldn't let you out of your car if you came to my house. And then the second it's like, I get home, she's like, oh, hi guys, you know?

And so this Doberman, you know, she got home, she's like, stop it, you know, cut it out. And then from that point on, the dog was glued to me the entire time that I was there. Like he just the sweetest, sweetest dog. I feel like every Midwestern or at least 80% of them have an Aunt Pat with a big dog. Yes, yes, probably.

Who is their Aunt, that's their favorite. Everybody's Aunt's favorite Aunt. Or an Uncle Pat with a big dog. Yeah, one or the other. Yeah, yeah. The other 20% get an Uncle Pat. Exactly. So you're getting a Pat.

Yes, exactly. You're getting a Pat. So yeah, those were usually the trips. I mean, I can't even, I don't know, like the first flight that I would have had that would have been something that wasn't like to go visit my aunt. Um, and I mean, and those were always kind of like attached. Visiting Pat was always attached to our vacations in some way, except for I did go once. in some way, except for I did go once. I went once with my grandmother, because as I told you, my grandma was the child of missionaries. And so there's like religious fervor is very deeply runs through these, you know, dour old Swedes.

And a lot of them ended up in Canada. A lot of my grandmother's siblings ended up in Canada. And so there was one trip where I went with my grandmother and my great aunt. And I think we were maybe picking her up from a long visit with one of her brothers or sisters in Canada. And we drove up there and it was just like, just even at the age I was, which was probably five or six, like I just was like, this is so boring.

Like just, we didn't do anything good. We went to Niagara Falls and there was like, you know, you can walk under the falls and then see like the water coming down. And my grandma was going to take me and we got down and we put on slickers and boots, you know, that they give you and we're walking through the tunnel. And she said, oh, these, the vibrations are too much for me. I can't take it. I can't take it. So we turned around and came back. So I never got to get to the behind the waterfalls. And I was saying to her, like. She took a boat.

She took a two-day boat to school. Seven. Seven, just to get out of the, yeah. And I remember saying, like, I'll just go look myself. And she's like, no, no, I can't let you do that. And I'm like, it's just, you can see, it's just down there. No, no, no. The vibrations, it's too much for me.

Like, would you probably just, you know, she probably was just scared, you know? Yeah. I've never, I haven't thought about it in years, but it's like, yeah, she was just nervous. Yeah. Vibrations. So your grandparents are a huge part of your upbringing.

Yes. Yes. My grandmother was. My grandfather was 18 years older than her and died when I was nine. So he's the LA cliche. Yes. Yes. Wow.

No, he was a very sweet man that was like very established in our town. And he had been married to a woman that was a, what do you call it, a Christian scientist. Okay. You know, and didn't believe in medicine and stuff. And they had like three kids that died. And then she was institutionalized. Oh my gosh. And then he met my grandmother and I actually found in my aunt's stuff

a whole like trove of their love letters, which are incredibly tame and typed. Yeah. But yeah, he kind of, you know, and my... Typing a love letter in that air is really funny, because it's like, I don't want to get messed up with passionate script. Right, right, right, exactly. And I got the typewriter right here.

It'll just be more legible. I might as well. Clickety clack. But my, and my grandmother at the time too, she had been, and this was a huge scandal. She had been going, her parents when they left China, then started to tour the world. She was left with a spinster cousin in Lincoln, Nebraska.

She attended a teacher's college, had an affair with the dashing principal or head of a teacher's college, had an affair with the dashing principal or head of the teacher's college, got pregnant, wired her and the guy took off. Wow. The principal? Her dad came down from Chicago on the train, tracked the guy down, brought him back, made him marry her, and then the next day he was off again. Wow.

And so he just took her back to Chicago and she was an unwed mother with a new little baby and that which was very much a stigma. And my grandfather, my kindly wonderful grandfather, that didn't bother him, and so he married her. And they actually, you know. Did she have more kids? Was that? Yeah, then she had four more kids, or no, three more kids. She had three more daughters.

And because my uncle Bill is the one, he was the half brother to all of my mom and her three sisters, or two sisters. Gotcha. You know, it's funny, because I think we talk about in this internet age, how impossible it is, you know, to disappear. Yeah.

The fact that before that, your grandfather could track someone down. Yeah. It's just so, it's so impressive. Yeah. I don't know how, I mean Yeah. It's just so, it's so impressive. Yeah. I don't know how, I mean, it probably was just like, he found out like his brother's got a farm 100% 10 miles away, you know,

and then went and like, oh, there he is, you know. Yeah. And then just like grab him by the scruff of his shirt and bring him back and throw him up at an altar. I'm sure, I'm sure. Or there may have been a gun involved, who knows, you know? Yeah. Unbelievable. Yeah.

Unbelievable. Yeah. Did they live very close to you in Yorkville? Oh, we lived with them. Your grandparents? Oh, you lived with them. Oh, right, of course. We lived with them, yeah, until my mom remarried

and then we moved to a city that was Aurora, which was five, six miles away. And then when my grandfather died, we took over that house and my grandmother moved in to a smaller place and so that I grew up in the house that pretty much grew up in the house that my my great-grandfather built the house so it yeah it was our family homestead. Still standing? It's still there but it is not in the family.

And it just recently, the family, we sold it to, in like, oh, I want to say, 85, they just sold it. So it just changed hands again. Any part of you like hear that that was for sale and were like, oh, should we buy that house? No, no. There's just, there's just nothing, you know, it, you know, I, it's like, I still, I'm

as, I'm as bad as anyone at looking at like these Zillow things of like, you know, Jefferson, Missouri, a 10 room, beautiful, intact 1912 mansion for $7. And I'm like, oh, but then I'm like, no, I'm not moving to Missouri or Illinois or wherever, you know. They love when people from LA come because their nice things are cheap. They're so neighborly to that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm here because you people don't know the value of things.

Speaking of values, I have some thoughts about quality. Hey, we're going to take a quick break and hear from some of our sponsors. Support for Family Trips comes from Airbnb. Hey, Bashi. Yes, Ufi. You know, some trips are better in an Airbnb. Let me tell you what I liked most about the last trip

we took with you and mom and dad. We didn't have one bathroom. Oh yeah, we had three, maybe even four. You know what? We had a bathroom situation. Dad was so impressed with the master bathroom that he kept telling us we should go take a shower in his room. Yeah, which I didn't, I never did.

I never did. He kept saying, you gotta, it was really good. You know what, when dad visits us, you know what he does with the kids that Alexi's not crazy about? What's that? He lets him eat toothpaste right out of the tube. And so that's why I didn't take a shower

in his Airbnb bathroom, is I didn't take a shower at his Airbnb bathroom, is I didn't know if I could resist that sweet, sweet toothpaste snack. Yeah. Look, it's really nice. I love our proximity to mom and dad when we're with them, but I also enjoy there's a little bit of space that a hotel room does not provide. And then it's great to have a living room, because a living room is yours and it feels like home and it's not a lobby.

Yeah. Also, Dad is prone to sprawl. Yeah. He's the original man spreader. He's the original man spreader. If he was getting residuals every time somebody man spread, the guy would be a billionaire. So it's nice. The way Dad sits on a couch in a lobby, I think would be sort of unbecoming of a gentleman his age.

But get him in an Airbnb living room. Go nuts, dad. And the other thing is, sometimes you might, hey, does this Airbnb look as good as it seems to look in the pictures? Why not try a guest favorite? Those are the most loved homes on Airbnb that can give you that extra sense of confidence.

Hey Sufi. Yeah Pashi. What's that thing I always say about going big and it never going out of style? Oh, I remember going big never goes out of style. Yeah, I remember.

especially when it comes to the 2025 Nissan lineup. And the Nissan vehicle we want to give a huge shout-out to today, the all-new Nissan Armada Pro 4X. Sufi, what's that thing I always say about the all-new Nissan Armada Pro 4X? Pashi, what's that thing I always say about the all new Nissan Armada Pro 4X? Pashi, you always, always say that no terrain is too tough for the all new Nissan Armada Pro 4X. It's the most capable Armada ever built. Yeah, that's right.

Intelligent four-wheel drive cannot prevent collisions or provide enhanced traction in all conditions. Always monitor traffic and weather conditions. Were you close with your stepfather? Not really. Okay. Not really. How old were you when your mom remarried?

I think eight. I think eight. Because she had my brother and sister very quickly after that and they were born in 1976. Okay, gotcha. Or 75. Would you do any, like, once you had those younger siblings, would you guys do any road trips? Would you go to, I feel like it's very Midwestern to go to like the Wisconsin Dells or you'd

go to the Great Lakes or any kind of. No, we didn't do, my mom planned a couple, like I said, we would go visit my aunt and she lived in Atlanta or she lived in Dallas. And so we would go there and just kind of stay near her. But we did do, we did a couple of big vacations. Oh, you're reminding me, we went on a driving trip to Mackinac Island in Michigan, which is this beautiful island that doesn't allow cars.

It has this grand old hotel called, maybe called the Grand Hotel for Christ's sake. It's called the Grand Old Hotel. Yeah, it's a big old wooden hotel with a giant, like 200 yard long front porch. And it's just, it's really, you know, it's like just a gorgeous little place up in Michigan. They did the movie Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reeves.

Oh, yeah. It's shot there. It's like a time travel movie. And they were actually shooting it while we were there. So that was very exciting because we got to see Christopher Plummer working on a scene outside. And so we did that and that was nice. And we did do, oh yeah, and I'm now, I am remembering, we did a Michigan trip with some Wisconsin thrown in there because we took a ferry across Lake Michigan.

We drove up into Michigan, I don't remember exactly where, and then came back across. Because there's like a lot of touristy things on the shores of the Great Lakes. And then as you get up into Canada and stuff. But our big, big family trip that I remember was when my little brother and sister were there, probably about four or five, we took the train from Joliet, Illinois to Oakland and then a bus to San Francisco from Oakland,

which is where my Aunt Pat was living again. Wow, Aunt Pat got around. Yeah, she was going to America's capitals. Her husband, you know, with this finance thing would move around, but they didn't, she loved living in San Francisco and wanted to stay in San Francisco, but it meant that he had to get up super early

because when you're a financial guy, you got to get, you're on New York time. So, you know, he hated it. But, um, she lived in this beautiful apartment that overlooked the bay. And it, and my brother and I, it was like voyeur, dirty minded kid, voyeur paradise, because you had perfect views into like 12 different apartments. And we stayed up until all hours just watching people. Like there was a couple across the way that they were like this little penthouse kind of structure on top.

And they would get home, this guy and his wife, they would get home. And the second they got home, they were nude. And then just like, I would walk around outside, like, you know, watering plants and stuff, nude. Which my aunt told me that she one time, that she, you know, she'd see them all the time, because they're right there across the way. And then one time she was in the grocery store and was getting something on her shelf and turned and like face to face with them and went, oh my God, I'm sorry. Like...

And scurried away. She's like, I didn't have anything to apologize for except for the fact that I'd seen them nude 3,000 times. Uh... Yeah, why is it on her? If anybody should be apologizing. Yeah, yeah. Um, but yeah, so we got to be peeping Tom's, which I mean,

I know that's bad, but I just, I don't know how you peep. Someone can... Yeah. How you kind of... They're begging for the peep. I think at that point, they might be doing it for the peeps. And well, they especially, but I mean, but like we were seeing also too,

like we saw people having sex, you know, like, and I just feel like I don't, whenever I lived where I would have sex and someone could see, I would get curtains, you know? I mean, you know, but I'm not saying, you know, I'm not blaming the victim of my voyeurism, but I'm just saying, I mean, you know, it's like how, that, you know, cause people having sex is always interesting. It's all, you know. It is always interesting. I do like that San Francisco fell right into the stereotype

of probably what people in the Midwest. Oh, absolutely. Like I almost feel like at the Joliet train station, they were like, let me guess, you're gonna go watch people have sex through open windows? You're gonna go see people phonicate? And then we drove down the coast from there and we stopped like in Carmel, Monterey area.

How old were you in this one, did you say? I'm sorry. I think I was about 13 maybe. Cool time. Yeah. And then we drove down the coast and then we went to LA and we went to Universal City and then we ended up at Disneyland, stayed in the Disneyland Hotel and then flew home. So yeah, that was a big one. That was a big shebang kind of trip that my mind went. Was the peeping the highlight of that whole trip, do you think?

Yes, the peeping was the highlight. And you know what? And now that you're saying it, there was a point at which we stopped along, like in Monterey where it's so beautiful, whatever that 27 mile drive or whatever it's called, you know, like the... And there was a man standing on the guardrail. 27 mile drive or whatever it's called, you know, like the, and there was a man standing on the guardrail. We stopped to just take pictures and look at this beautiful vista over the ocean.

And there's a man standing looking down with a camera taking pictures. And I walked over and looked down, it's like there was someone nude, there was a woman nude sunbathing down on the beach. I don't know, they're everywhere. I feel like this was an incredible disservice to, you know, Disneyland,

cause I feel like for a 13 year old boy, you should have done Disneyland first and then all the naked ladies. No, honestly Disneyland, Disneyland was the best part of it, I will say. Oh, that's good, yeah. We did while waiting at Universal Studios, while waiting in line for the Monster Show.

Do you remember they used to do a Monster Show? Like, it was a musical show, but it was like, because all the Universal Monsters, it was Frankenstein, the Wolfman, Dracula, you know, and it was a musical show with all the monsters that we had. I was like, I'm, there's fucking monsters, I'm going to see it, you know. And we saw a old Japanese tourist man get pickpocketed,

and then a white lady grabbed the pickpockets hand as he was pulling the wallet out and screamed like, what do you think you're doing? You know, and the guy went, I don't know. And then pulled his hand away and dropped the wallet and ran away. And the old man seemed very kind of like, it didn't seem like he appreciated what she,

cause his wallet was fat with bills. Yeah. It was like, I don't feel like he appreciated what this woman did for him. And I feel like she didn't feel like he appreciated it either cause she's like, he was gonna take your money. Oh, okay. You know.

Oh. Meanwhile, people. Thank you. That just think it's a non-convertational culture. Right, right, exactly. It's like, maybe that's what I wanted. Maybe, right. Meanwhile, the monster, people in monster suit backstage

are gonna be like, oh, this is super lame compared to the drama that just happened out there. When you're 13, you're like, oh, I love monsters. And then you go see a musical monster show at Universal City. It must be, I'm so disappointed. I don't think so. I don't think I questioned it that much.

I think, you know, I think, yeah, I knew it was corny and stuff, but still I was like into it. Because I will tell you too, at Disneyland on the same trip, there was, we stayed at the Disneyland Hotel, and it's all very different now. I mean, I've taken my kids to Disneyland a million times

and, you know, we still go a lot. But there was like a shopping village by the Disneyland Hotel and there was a mask store, a store that just sold fancy masks. And there was a werewolf mask that was like, I don't know, 50 bucks or something, which was just not going to happen, or something, which was just not gonna happen, that I went in every day and tried on and looked in the mirror and was like, to this day, remember just like, and like trying to tell my mom, like, it just would be so, I mean, I know it's expensive.

No, I'm not getting you a $50 werewolf mask. I'll get married in this, it's a must to get married. No money, it's such a get married. It's an investment. Yeah, there's no selling point to a parent. It's like, I'll use it every day. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. Which is a disaster for a parent. They don't want you to use it

in a wolf mask every day. Oh good, you're gonna be that weird kid that always has the werewolf mask. I have a question because again, eight, six and three, Andy, what's the right age to bring kids to Disneyland or Disney World? It all works. It all works.

It all works, yeah. Cause with the littlest kid, and this is the first time that we took my son who's now 24 to Disneyland, you start to realize, because your life is defined by how far you can let your child get from you without freaking out, like out in public, you know? And at Disneyland, you can let your kid get like

70 yards away from you, because you start to realize everything's baby-proof, like there's no railings that they can get their head stuck in. You know, there's like, they can't fall into open water. They're, you know, you don't have to worry about a car hitting them or something. Even like on Main Street, you know, it's, you know, it's just, it's a very, you feel very safe.

And you also get such a contact high from them because they can't believe it. And my son, when we took him there, he was probably about three, I think, three or four, the first time we took him. And he just innately understood these characters in costumes, they need to be hugged. Like he wasn't freaked out, because I was kind of like, what's he, what's he gonna

think about Mickey Mouse or Pluto? Like, like I would think, what the fuck is that? You know, and I don't even know that he was that aware of them. And, you know, like, I don't feel like he'd watched a lot of Mickey Mouse cartoons cause they weren't that available then. But he just understood immediately like, well, that thing needs a hug, you know? And just would walk up and like,

interrupt other people's photo sessions, like just to go hug Minnie's leg, you know? But then, and then as they get older, they do reach an age, 13-ish, 14-ish, where they will shit all over the idea of going and then go and have really have fun. And then there'll be a span where they don't want to go unless they, you know, and then there's the time. And then they start going with their friends so they can do drugs.

I'm assuming, you know. That's one where you just want like sort of willful ignorance. Right, exactly. I mean, you know. If they're not doing drugs, you're wondering, why are you still going at Disney? Honestly, it's like, I know when I was in my 20s, Disneyland was much better when I was on acid. Much more interesting.

The lines were less intolerable. Again, in the same way that it's baby proof for a child, they're also really safe places to be on acid. Exactly. Exactly. They say that in the literature. They're like, look. Because again, you don't want to be on acid somewhere where there's traffic.

Yeah. No, and I love, honestly, you know, I've known a lot of like kind of hipster parents who are like, man, I would never. And it's like, what are you talking about? It's like, it is literally the happiest place on earth. Like just go. Just like, they've been thinking about,

they've been thinking about this stuff for, you know, 70 years, they've been thinking about how to do this stuff. I'm not thrilled with all this Star Wars-ification of it, you know? But then when I think about it, it's always been about product. There's always been some kind of whatever, Tom Sawyer's Island or whatever.

That was, they had Tom Sawyer's shit that they were selling. But it is like, they turned, like a whole thing being Star Wars. And I just, cause I don't, Star Wars is like, oh, it's all right. But I mean, I don't care that much. Yeah, more people are looking for the Star Wars merch than the Tom Sawyer merch.

Right, exactly. Or there's like, you know, all the Marvel stuff now, they have all that stuff. My son says Star Wars. And I feel like he thinks it's more like a rhyme than it. Star Wars. Star Wars. I love that.

And we watched the first two together, we finally, you know, and a very sweet thing happened where he was away this weekend on a, like, a sleepover with his friends. And he came back and he said, I have to tell you something. They started watching Return of the Jedi, but I asked them to stop because I said

I wanted to watch it with my dad, and they kept watching it until the parents came in, and then I told them, and they finally made him stop, which makes my kid seem so lame, that he's, like, telling kids, like, I need to watch with my dad. And then he, like, narcs them out to the parents. Right, right, right. But he goes, I did watch the beginning,

and I was, you know, I remember Return of the Jedi, and I was like, it's really, the beginning's really good, right, when they, like, save Han, you know, from Jabba the Hutt, and he said the funniest thing, he goes, yeah, he goes, it was really satisfying. And it was just like an eight year old saying that the beginning of Return of the Jedi was satisfying. I was like, you know what?

That might be the perfect way to describe it. It's very sad. It had everything I wanted out of- Yeah, it was vengeful. Yeah, out of a Star War. It was Star War. It was my favorite Star War of the, yeah. Of the Star Wars. I also, Josh is gonna be deeply disappointed

that of all the things I loop back to, I do wanna mention something about Somewhere in Time, the Christopher Reed movie. Oh, okay. That's all right. I think it was the first time I realized just cause an actor was in a movie you love doesn't mean you're gonna like that movie.

Cause as a kid who fucking loved Superman. Yeah, yeah. Like I was like, oh, Superman. Christopher Reed, yeah. I begged Mom to let us watch it or let me watch it. And I was just like 20 minutes in, realizing, this sucks. Yeah, this is boring. Superman.

What is? What sort of choices are you making? Yep. Yeah. It's true. It's true. That was where Harrison Ford did us a bunch of solids because Harrison Ford was like the first actor who everything, I feel like he did Star Wars

and then everything after was also really good. Yes, you know, although he did do some grown up, like murdery kind of things. I feel like by the timeline for me was really good because like by the time he was doing Witness, I was like ready for that. Yeah, yeah. You know, he has been in a lot of, like,

Yeah. You know, just movies where he's running a lot, in danger and running a lot, you know. Yeah, it's good, he's good at it, he's a good runner. Yeah, yeah. This was wonderful. It's always lovely to see you and speak to you. Thank you.

And now, very excited for Josh to ask you our speed round questions. Oh, all right. All right, here we go. Pressure's on. You can only pick one of these. Is your ideal vacation relaxing, adventurous, or educational? Can I say like relaxing and educational? Like a blend?

Or does it have to be relaxing? We let Josh Brolin pick two. Yeah, I'm gonna say relaxing, if I have to pick one. But I do like a little bit of, you know, let's go look at the ruins or the bird sanctuary, that kind of thing. I enjoy that stuff. Great.

What's your favorite means of transportation? Helicopter. Okay, if you can take a vacation with any family, alive or dead, real or fictional, other than your own family, what family would you like to take a family vacation with? Oh, you mean not someone in my family, another family. Yeah, another family, another group.

Oh, wow, gosh. Probably the Addams family. They would be fun. Excellent. No, I mean, that's kind of a joke answer, but a real- You mean Mayor Eric Adams of New York. You'd want to go to Turkey with him first class. Of course, what else would I have meant?

Gosh, I don't know. My own family, like your own family's enough sort of a combination of joy and work that it's like the idea to have to shoehorn yourself into somebody else's. I don't know. The next one will be helpful. Okay. Yeah. If you had to be stranded on a desert island

with one member of your family, who would it be? Well, my wife. Great. You know, I mean, for sure. Second one. Second one. Second wife. Would be, yeah. No, no, I mean, for sure. Second one. Second one? Second wife. Would be, yeah.

No, no, I meant second wife. Oh, second, yes, second wife. Okay, good. Oh, I thought you meant I get a second choice. No, no, no, no, no. Definitely yes. You get my choice, yeah. Yes.

All right, you're from Yorkville, Illinois. Would you recommend Yorkville as a vacation destination? No, not really. I don't think so. Based on what you said. Yeah, no. It seems like a perfectly fine destination? No, not really. I don't think so. Based on what you said. Yeah, no. It seems like a perfectly fine place. Yes, it is.

Nobody is ever like, you know what I want to see? Some suburban sprawl. Well, actually, it's a- With a big box store. It's a pretty little town when you get to the downtown of it. It's got a kind of an old cool downtown, which I actually have. That's the last time I was there I went to

and it now sort of has this river walk, a few restaurants and bars kind of, you know, it sort of is a nice place to go have an afternoon. I'll never look down my nose at a river walk. I feel like anybody who realizes that people wanna be near a river. Yes. Always.

Yeah, whatever water, body of water, you know. And then Seth has our final questions. Andy, have you been to the Grand Canyon? No. Do you wanna go? Yes. Okay. Yes.

I've seen it from an airplane, but I don't think, and I've driven all around it, but I don't think we ever did like it a proper trip. I did this one thing once where, as part of the integration, a Chevy ad for the Conan show, when we are on TVS, I'm making air quotes for you listeners.

I drove some new little Chevy, I think it was called a Sonic maybe. This little Chevy, I drove it from LA to New York for our week of shows in New York, which really was just like, I think I drove the thing maybe five hours and then the rest of the time there was three teamsters who would swap off and they would drive the car or sleep or drive the like tour bus that me and a

rider and a prop guy and then like two guys that were like uploading because they were up editing and uploading as we were going. And so we had a nonstop kind of itinerary to do different things. Like I stopped at that steakhouse in Amarillo and had the 72 ounce steak, which was one of the most awful excuses for a piece of meat I've ever encountered. But the rest of the time it was just like me and a writer, Brian McCann, who's one of the funniest people, an old friend of mine from Chicago, on this tour bus. And me a lot of the time, like in my pajamas and a robe, because we were doing bits with me in pajamas and a robe, just smoking weed and drinking on the back of this bus

as we go across the country and stopping, you know, but we didn't, we did not stay in a hotel. We, you know, we went straight through, but we did not do that. We didn't, I think the Grand Canyon was just like out of our, off of our route. Yeah. Yeah. So. If you were driving to Amarillo to get that our, off of our route. Yeah. Yeah.

So. If you were driving to Amarillo to get that steak, then yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Then you head over to the south. Are you worrying anything you do with your five year old at any point, your older kids will be like,

oh, Grand Canyon, would have been nice? No, probably because, I'm probably not going to have as much money with this kid as I did with the other ones. Oh, gotcha. So they're like, they know not to complain. I had regular TV gigs with the other ones. They got all the sweet trips.

Although my daughter, my older daughter, who's 19 now, she was such an ADHD handful that we didn't go anywhere on a plane until she was like 11 or 12, just because we're just like, no, we are not submitting her to an airplane. I mean, we did go a couple, I worked in New Zealand and my ex-wife and my kids and her mother flew to meet me in New Zealand. But other than that, we were like, you know, we're vacationing locally. We're going in the car because she was just so much.

It's good to know. It's good to know the limitations. Yes, exactly. Well, thank you so much, Andy. It's always so nice to see you and talk to you. Thank you. It was really fun to see you guys. Yeah, thanks. Hopefully I'll you so much, Andy. It's always so nice to see you and talk to you. Thank you. It was really fun to see you guys. Yeah, thanks.

Hopefully I'll see you soon in person. All righty. All right, guys. All right. Take care. Bye, buddy. Bye-bye. Bye.

Yeah. You remember it, Andy. I know you do Andy Richter He recalls Going to night Agra Falls, cool To See

But now we have to leave those Niagara vibrations gave Grandma palpitations and he had expectations turned into aggravation

and he took a trip with Grandma who had siblings up in Canada Clean love letters that she typed up The waterfall had Andy hyped up The mission for this missionary turned out to be too, too scary Called it off due to Andy's frustration Such a freaking boring vacation Come on, come on Grandma, grandma Can't you take medication? Those liar, perv by pressure

They scared Grandma off In the tunnel location We're so close but reservation Wanted to see the falls Which was an irritation Total bullshit!
