but the you would be there I'll buy the baby's cow the big eyebrows of Travis We're going to do some TikTok videos today, Jimmy. We're putting some content on that shit again.

Let's go to the coffee bean. What the fuck is a TikTok? Central perk. That's what I called your dick, a tick-tack. Dana? Yes. Look at this. I've got the dark room.

You've got the bright room. Well, I can darken it to imagine. No, no. We're really shaking stuff up. We've got to keep them guessing. I had my porn star look last week. And now I'm just right. plants a hit

water it all the time a lot of comments plants a hit what about my Superman still a medium hit but yeah I don't really need this much light I feel like I'm using too much light you know

no I know I'm I'm down mixing things up and shaking shit up so it's a little dark behind me in this studio you're in a dungeon and if you turn the lights off be pitch black. No, my legs are chained right now. So I can't escape.

But we got Nick Kroll. We've had Nick Kroll on before. We think he's funny as shit. And I want to riff with him and fuck around. One funny mother, shut your mouth. And he's got, let me see. Big Mouth, of course, huge show on Netflix, the animated show. He's got adults, which is on FX.

He's producing that on FX. I'm going to ask him about that. And he has a special out. And he's just a good guy to really mostly just have laughs with. Yes, totally. People want information, but they also want some laughs. Yeah, he's, you know, there are comedians that are sort of quiet or thoughtful. He's one of those that just like, you know.

He wants to run with anything. To run with thing, be funny. And by the way, we fancy ourselves as sort of, you know, intellectuals and father figures in some way. if you want to ask us questions about live oh yeah that's right you can always ask us questions we'll answer them on the non-guests show i think uh but ask weird ones because we don't want simple we don't complicate of mine yeah about your screwed up life uh yeah you know financial issues relationship issues anxiety and depression that's all very popular right now hilarious on the wall at odyssey.com is what I hear.

Fly on the wall, one word, lowercase, at odyssey.com. Great. And we'll give you, we'll hand you off to Nick Kroll. You don't hear me now. Fuck. But now he sounds incredible. I want to get. Time for one more question.

I couldn't afford that, Mike. So I got this stand-up, Mike. I, um, what's nice is there's a weight. So, you know what I mean? You know, you feel like you don't have that. heavy weight holding a microphone it's nice i've got that here we've got a lot more is it heavy it looks heavy it's yeah i mean i'm not gonna i'm not gonna even go to the gym after this this is no but nick this is a real story related to this when i do stand-up you ever seen stand-up stand like this it's

because i'm using a little fulcrum because the mic's getting too heavy and pulling on my neck that's how much about it's unreal um yeah okay and now i'm just gonna raise i want you guys See, I'm going to raise it. I've got a urine test kit that I'm going to use to raise the, just to give you a little more. That'll do it. Right? Let's put it right on me. That's going to do it.

That's going to do it. That's your famous. That's going to do it. Why? That's the thing is rhythms never go away because there's no, there's nothing funny about someone saying, yeah, do it. There's no reason. There's no joke.

There's no twist. There's the song. It's a song. that's going to do it. Actually, the hook is just, it's like a chorus of a song, like a hooky song. You know, not gonna. Okay, I'll do this for, I'll do this for Nick because it's, you know, you have bits in your act that get way, way bigger laugh than they should. It's almost mysterious.

This is George Bush, Sr. going off a high dive. So I'm walking up to the front of the stage. Gotta do it. Gonna do it. Then I look down, I go, not. Can I do it? And the laugh is so monstrous. It also makes me mad.

Are you, do you have that? Are you jealous of some of your jokes? Good question. Jealous of them? Well, I'd like to have more. Some jokes are funnier than me. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, kind of.

And you're like, you're kind of like, fuck. I wish I, yeah, I wish I was as funny as my joke. I think, yeah, like when you get jokes at work all the time, you go, I wish they were all like this. Yeah. Well, I'm just doing sounds now, and I was going to ask you about that. Just noises. I'm just, well, I'll just do Biden or Trump for 20 minutes or I'll do red, rednecky.

I just not really into regular stand-up as much. Like, you know, like when you and I have this, I'm more into just giving them what they want. Mm-hmm. Because I'm a whore. And I'm lazy. I'm a lazy whore. but so but it's fun it's fun because that's what you do with friends you don't really set up long form bits with friends it's all kind of noise and do you not do observational jokes with

your friends do you kind of point out the small things in life that are funny and talk to them about it not in a way that gets them laughing really hard compared to in high school the Volkswagen bug all my friends are stone and I'm doing an impression of the water polo coach and I'm winding it down for 10 minutes I've never gotten people to laugh that hard with a well. Why do dogs look out the window when they're driving? What are they thinking? What are they thinking?

I guess I can run really fast now. I have been at dinner or lunch. You start to say something about the butter being hard and someone always goes, is this your act? Yeah. And I go, yes. Leaning in is good. So I was going to ask you like when we talked to you last time,

This is like an exclamation point in podcasting. You said, oh, people want really, really kind of personal confessional stuff. And you did your special. And now you're still doing out there doing stand-up. Have you evolved into another style or you're in it and you loved it? I've retreated back. I've retreated back away from the personal stuff. I was not rewarded enough for sharing.

That's true. Mayday, Mayday, Mayday. Pull back. no Emmy nomination you know medium response so I just was like let's go back to broad characters

separated from self observations about nothing to do with me let's put that wall back up here's my new special that's a podcast high five like why you know because the people they still we got to go back to square one

it is you want to make them helpless with laughter right ultimately you don't want to be like a science you know high school science teacher or something or you know that but there was that there were great comedians Hannah Gatsby and so forth they're doing more of a one-man show rest in power rest in power to Hannah now gone these now many years yes yes shit rest in power what does that mean I like it that's I don't know some at some point there became an alt on rest in peace that became rest in power so oh oh rest in power like it great yeah that's my new special

I say instead of right on, I say left on, I don't know what it means, but, but like you're kind of, I always see you as especially gifted at being balls out funny, like aggressively, rhythmically, loudly, extra funny, you know. So we got a real crossfire here with Spain. Yeah, I'm the other side. Well, David has his own genius. I've, here's what I did last night, Nick, for being personal, because my mom, and she's got this huge bruise in her face. And I go, my mom, poor mom, you know, when they get older and now, she falls straight down, like building seven now.

She doesn't even put her hands out. And it's like, borderline political. But they all kind of booed me. And I'm like, don't think of the 9-11 part of that. Think of my poor mom. Right. That's what you. So you feel like you went personal and they rejected it simply because you made a 9-11

and I say back to goofy jokes because you can't handle it. You can't handle it. You can't handle it. Are you, I mean, you did do a full hour on 9-11. I feel like you did. I said 9-11, conspiracy or reality? What does that mean? I go, I don't know, it sounds kind of hooky.

Do you guys want to hear my old 9-11 joke? Yeah, of course. Of course. The lesson from 9-11. What was it? Show up late to work. Yeah. Don't be afraid to.

Well, don't go like that one guy. I thought you were going to listen to 9-11 is nickname at 7-11, so it doesn't seem so dark and just more twisted. 7-Eleven almost got caught in the crossfair because it was too close. Yeah. It was like, what did you say? Oh, 7-11. Hey, you know what I heard? I heard building three was already dynamited.

We dynamited. We got an expert here. You know what? The laziest conspiracy theory. Yeah. Yeah. I saw, they had a couple of guys with plungers walking. around like this.

But I will say that I did tell someone that they go, this young lady is really big on 9-11. So if you want to talk, she gets into it. So I said, oh, something like, oh, did you not think the planes caused the explosions or you thought it was already set up with dynamited? And she goes, she goes, oh, you thought there were planes? I go, oh my God, we're going back a step. There's no, there's no plane. She's like, that's so funny.

You'd probably thought that, though. I go, I did. Yeah. I go, what else is it? She goes, she literally thought those were a digital cop. You could do that now with AI, no problem. AI covers anything now. Dude, AI did it.

AI did 9-11. Fuck, yeah. Dude, and that's what we're not talking about. And that's what we're finally talking about. Everyone's scared. We're not. I want to tell you about the moment because I think we talked about it last time

where you were like next level funny like went to this thing that really made me laugh hard and it was just I think I was doing Trump I was we were at the Largo and then I was Trump talking to Kim Jong-un

and then you were kind you got in this thing like maybe it kind of turns him on so you're doing like oh you're doing like Kim Jong you kind of being flirty and sort of being turned on by Trump's attacks. Sure. It was very quick and aggressively committed to.

So anyway, that's all I got. Thank you. Well, I appreciate that. I think so we're all done now. I think we've covered, we got it. We got all the tough stuff out of the way. Yeah, we done. Are you kidding?

No, it's guy. Good Lord. You've done too much. We can't cover you. There's too many shows, too much stuff. Too much stuff. I can I can't help but say I see something in the studio chat

that feels like something here oh breaking news or something yeah Taylor Swift and Travis the football guy are engaged what a good news man well the football guy

Tom Broke off Travis Taylor and the football guy Taylor Swift and the football guy are engaged today ring it all. First comes love, then comes marriage. How do we finish that one?

You know what? Nice timing. Where's the Epstein list? There we go. Nice distraction, Taylor. Yeah, yeah, Taylor holding on. Next thing's going to come out of witness protection and Jeffrey's going to marry them

because he's in witness protection. By the way, I thought they were engaged sort of already, but if this was a year ago, I would have been more shocked, but it feels like time, right? Right. Well, and this is breaking news, because this podcast will come out in like a week.

Six months. Yeah. So like. Oh, it's kind of Thursday? When people listen to this on Thursday, it's Tuesday. Nick cut the line. They'll know we're hearing this for the first time.

I think it's a great day for white America. I'll say that first of all. Why he catches a break? Who's, And I will say I watched Happy Gilmore 2 and I saw Travis Kelsey, he's shirtless in it. And my take was like he's got like 1950s movie star body. You know what I mean? It's not like definition.

It's just sort of, it's like a strong big man. Yeah. It's like Charlton Heston kind of. Yes. And he had that kind of haircut too. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Listen, it was all working for me.

Yeah, right? Yeah. I like any guy from any era. Well, let's just. That's a nice thing. That's your take. Yeah. That's what I walked away with.

Yeah. I thought Tabby going to took place in the 50s. I didn't even understand what happened. Yeah. I missed the 50s guys with their shirts off. That was different. Fonzie never took a shirt off if you guys didn't know. With Amex Platinum, access to exclusive Amex pre-sale tickets can score you a spot trackside.

I just keep trying to push off of what the brand deal is for the movie. I just want to buy the TikTok and make them buy it off me or something.

Well, I wonder, yeah, you should get you. So we have to guess what the kid's name's going to be. And does Oprah go to the wedding? Does Oprah go to the wedding? Does Sam, does Prince Harry go to? to the wedding. Does Prince, the artist formerly known as, go to the wedding? Rest in power. Rest in

Prince. Rest in power. Does Prince Harry go and Megan doesn't? Because she's got another wedding that weekend. Does Megan call him Prince? Maybe Megan is stuck in the jam like, you know, Winnie the Pooh. She saw the jam.

I take that one back. I don't get it. I get it. I kind of get it. Megan Markle's pantsless walking around Santa Barbara, holding a honey, like a jam jar. Yeah, selling it on the median.

Yeah. Yeah. Selling it in Santa Barbara in the middle of the median. Yeah, down by the little village. Yeah. Wondering if Schwarzenegger is going to stop to buy some jam.

And Dana, what would that sound like? What kinds do you have? Yeah. Do you have strawberry? He's got Hockleberry. My favorite is Hucklebelly jam. Because why is it your favorite?

Because I like the way my voice sounds. When I see Huckleberry. Hackelberry. A lot of people don't carry Hucklebelly. My favorite dumb soyer story. And the male, the Taylor, and the Travis, you know, he's the football player. I love when he states, obviously. Oh, he's talking about current events now.

She's like the box are. And they get married and had the baby. And the baby goes on tour with them. It goes on tour. And the football games in the box seats. Yeah, like blue ivy. The baby's going to be out there. Megan.

Uh, what? Where are you? Huge noise cancelling. Oh, yeah. And cord play. It's good. I love you doing it more than me. Yeah.

Oh, is cold play that loud. It's just like. I really chew on it, you know. You don't even know what he's saying anymore. Yeah, it's just... No, it's got to be just sounds... Too many decibels. The baby's microphone poppings too much volume.

The babies can have long blonde hair in the muscles of the football guy. In 1950s, baby body. The calves of Taylor Swift, the calves would be kind of pure. but the wards will be the

I'll ride the baby's caill the big eyebrows of Travis slightly receding in the corners

slightly but not totally still attractive yeah the biggest lips of Dela the delude

the deltods will be a little bit like me because you know I get around sometimes. Everybody knows about the extra baby. I made one baby with the housekeeper. Everybody goes

crazy. Are we still talking about this kid? Who are we talking about? Fuck this fucking extra baby I had. Yeah, let me tell you something. That's what he says before he talks. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something.

Let me tell you. You know, I can't tell you. You know what it was a big hit. Football was a big hit. No, Fubar, wasn't the name of his show? Fubar, that's his show, yeah. Fubar was a big hit all over the world. It's canceled. Yeah, but yeah.

Yeah, we felt two seasons. Two seasons, read it and we, we got out like Seinfeld on top. Sorry, Fred Armisen, two seasons. Why Fred Armeson? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you think you're so special, Fred Armeson. With your eight seasons of Portland here, two seasons of football, Netflix.

Read it and week. Now, go make a sketch with Bill Hayder. And then call me, I'll tell you if it's funny. You spelled Portland wrong and no one noticed. Nobody noticed. Go do your well-observed documentary parodies Fred Armisen with Bill Ada. Two seasons, Fortune Fimster, Fubar, Netflix, around the world. Our decision.

Fortune Feinster is my greatest reference so far on this podcast. He pulls out Fortune 5. Fortune's in Fubar. She's on Fubar. She spent a lot of time together in Toronto. Yeah.

We'd really laugh and mix it up. She does bits, but she can also relate a dinner. Two minutes later, drama acting. Have you made a fortune, fortune? She would laugh so. hard that my gufah

attempts. She's in my Fortune 500. I could create gufah in the makeup room and say, hey, fortune, maybe you need some more rouge. She would fall out of a makeup chair and crawl into

a little baby curl. Two seconds later, I'm strapped to a tank. And this is also a gufah. A gufah. he's more guffat for you and then casual observations there's nothing they can't do

I was the governor and now I'm on stand-up gufas all over the country it's me Fortune Primester Tom Papa making bread follow me with a camera I'm a real clip farm it's a guffar

a guff along people can sing to the measure of gufas that come out of the orifices of the audience. They call me Gufar Gaddafi. Because I'm killing it all the time. Is that his name? All right.

What's the show? The show is, what is show are you here to promote? Adults. I'm here, I guess, this is a, guys,

this is a real reach for all of us. Okay, adults came out months ago. Okay. They said, do you want to come back and do Dana? I know. I'm glad you came back. That was nice.

I said, absolutely. I have nothing. We can talk about adults, the TV show that I produced. Let's talk about that first. Why not? You guys have watched all eight. So let's talk, let's talk episode five particularly. Yes.

Or six. Yes. That's one. Was Julia Fox? Chloe has a crisis with her boyfriend. You did? Okay. So, yes, Chloe is so close.

It's so fair. to just assume one of the character's name is like crisis. Chloe, okay, Chloe is in a crisis, but Zoe, okay,

right. There is an episode that Julia Fox did. She did chicken dinner. Yeah, see? You just know shows by who you've, someone dug deep.

If a guest star has, either you've slept with or jerked off to a guest star, you know that episode. She was an uncut jams. She was. That movie rocks. Uncut Jams is a real nail biter.

But here's my question for you, and this is all about adults and FX. How the FIAC does everyone get access to shows? Because we go around with our friends going, hey, see anything on live streaming? That's a good show. Yeah. You know, seen anything because it's like so much content. So that's the task. So the show's great.

How do we get people to watch it? Yeah. How do you get off the ground? I think in this case, you know, it's a show about kids in their early, 20s in New York and we cast really incredibly funny cast in their 40s some they're all in their 40s they're all like Greece yeah they're all in their late 40s they're English playing 22 year olds um it's so funny it is so funny how you look watch old movies too and you're like that person you know what I mean you're like watching I remember watching like it's like Jimmy Stewart and

this is a I didn't mean to do this but I'm realizing I'm doing it And he's supposed to be playing like an early 30s bachelor. And you're like, you're maybe 55 at this point. No one questioned anything. And what would that sound like if Jimmy Stewart was living in an apartment with a bunch of people in the early 20s? I know, Danny. You didn't fight on this yet.

I know. I didn't want to be too greedy. Yeah. Well, what are you all up to today? Let's go to the park. What are we doing here? I'm 27 years away I don't want to live

we're going to do things we're going to do some TikTok videos today Jimmy we're putting some content on that shit again let's go to the coffee bean what the fuck is a TikTok Central perk that's what they called your dick a tick tack Jimmy Stewart was 47 and it's a wonderful life when he played kind of a college kid

in the beginning of the right yeah makeup's a joke the past movies in the past are a fucking joke a joke pull them and all the people that made them are pricks and jokes rest in pricks you fucking schnucks there you go hey guess what yeah analog television was pretty sweet visually to people when i first went on johnny carson because i only seen on a blurry analog television i was like holy shit this guy's had a couple Cottails and got some sun. Yes.

Because I write. I won't do that one. Sorry, I shut my show. You're welcome to, please. You've got a show called Adults on a network called FX, Ed. Did you hear of X? I guess you'd... Nick, I have a quiz for you.

Yes. You played Gunther and Singh. Yeah. And who played Rosita? Whoa, hard-hitting questions. Jesus, I was not ready for this. Um, do you guys know, I mean, what's amazing right now is I am genuinely blanking on now the name I found, Reese Witherspoon.

It was Reese Witherspoon? Yeah, it's Reese Witherspoon. And did you sing with her or did you do it separately? We, you know, I just kept saying, let's get in the booth together. Let's just find the character together. One booth. One booth, a small booth. Never. People are never together with those things. I, we did a lot of big mouth together early on before the pandemic.

And you can feel, you really do feel the difference when you're recording together, I would say. Yeah. Um, but I, no, we sang separately. We sing, speaking of, uh, the newly engaged Taylor Swift. Oh, you sang Taylor Swift and the one I saw. Yeah, I sing Shake It Off. Yeah, it's a good one. Lovely auto tune.

I find it easier to sing in character than I do as myself. Do you guys know what I'm saying? Yes. I didn't know it was you when I clicked on it. I was like, I don't know if this is him and it was you. I stay up too late. Yeah. I can only sing like Neil Young.

Do you think you'll sing at the wedding or whatever? Will you sing at Neil Young's funeral? Yeah, that's what I was getting at. Hey, hey, my, my. No, you just say, hey, hey, bye, bye, and then you walk away. Hey, man, Darrell Hannah and Neil Young sit in a tree. they're looking at this news going copy cats yeah do you think that they're do you think that he's bringing her something at like a morning ambrosia and uh finding out that taylor and Travis are

engaged are they not engaged who Hannah and no they're married I believe oh they are and they do you think they're up in a tree so how much are they going to chat about it today yeah they have houses sort of around the continent so they take they take neal's uh motor home and they just draw let's oh let's go to toronto and they drive across the country yeah and then she's but she's got to get into a water tank before too long right or she because it's not ding ding ding ding ding you know what i don't know for sure this is one of our records i knew immediately what you were going for i like splash she was she was great in that movie with what a great movie with what a great movie Tommy Hanks killed it in that one.

Hey, have you seen PTA's new movie because Maya is in Bigma? Yes, I love the, thank you for connecting the dots for me. I have not, I've seen the trailer, I can't fucking wait. Have you seen it? What movie? What is the name of it? Paul Thomas Anderson's movie, it's like, don't fucking stop.

It's not, though, it's called like, never not moving. I can't, I can't remember. Leonardo decapitated, is a DiCaprio is in that, right? He always gets everybody cool in it, whoever he wants. Yep. And he's got, who else is in that? Maya, Maya's in Big Mouth. Maya plays my mom in Big Mouth and also the hormone monstrous and a lot of other characters.

And has won now like four or five Emmys for that character? Yeah, yeah. What about, what about your character? She's an Emmy magnet, that one. She will, and ironically, that Big Mouth playing that Connie character was her first Mee. which is crazy. Before S&L? Before winning for S&L?

No. Her Kamala as that we went on by the end it was like just spectacular. Yeah. It's, she's a score machine. She is.

She's a critic proof critic proof home run hitter. Nonstop funny. Too bad her. Too bad PTA can't direct his way out of a fucking cardboard box. He couldn't direct a colony

advance to him, melting Hershey bar. He couldn't direct an old lady out of traffic. Jesus Christ, he couldn't direct a cop who's directing traffic to a place where there's even more traffic, all right? He couldn't direct. He couldn't direct himself out of a paper bag if someone put him in one and need the directions to get out of it, okay? I'll never explain.

I loved it. I love this. I loved every minute of it. He's a genius. I wanted to just say this because this is the final season of Big Mouth and it's out now. And it's like everything else. You got to whip the PR thing because people forget. Yeah.

It's sort of never been anything done like it. God damn right. Funny. Filty. Let's do a cartoon about kids going through puberty. Oh, okay. We'll make a G. No, let's go right at it.

Right at it. And so was there any, like when you pitched it to Netflix or how did it come about and when they knew that you were going to go adult with it and yet it's a it's charming on a kid level too but go ahead.

Thank you. Well, I love that. Kids love it. Well, we made it for ourselves. It was not originally, we didn't think of it as something that like weirdly that kids would, we were really making it for our people

to make us laugh and our friends laugh. and it was it and they really let us go i'll say what i you were talking about streaming and how people watch stuff what i will say is we got in making netflix at a big mouth at netflix at a very specific moment in time we were like the 33rd show that they made or something like that and they didn't have a lot and they were really trying to make their name and they really let us do anything we wanted and constantly encouraged us to push because they were in a moment where they were like we need to make waves and we're in this new form and format so just go nuts. They never stopped us from doing anything.

I mean, a few jokes that we were like, fair enough, like truly disgusting things. I was going to ask you if there were things where someone or even you guys said, uh, maybe that's too much. Yeah. We definitely had like that, you know, there are different stages when you're making an animation where you've got like your radio play, you're hearing it. Then eventually an animatic like where it's a black and white sort of rough cut of what it's going to look like, and then the color.

So sometimes you don't know until color when like a hormone monster's pulling a tiny thermometer out of a sick little dick, and a little bit of blood spurts out of the sick little hormone monster's dick. That when you see that, you agree with Netflix that maybe that is a little too much for air. Was Ted Serendos in the room when you pitch this filth?

He was not in that room, but he was very aware and very, and he was at the season 8 finale. He came and was sitting right behind me, and it was like hearing him laugh, like a, that's the thing with Ted when we were pitching the show. Ted really is like a comedy fan.

Like he loves it. Super fan. And so when he, so when we were like, this is what we want to do, he was like all in. And there was nothing else. There were no other streamer.

So like we were, we really got to come out. out, got to do whatever we want, and there was so other little competition that we really were able to make a splash, similar to Daryl Hannah, eating a, you know what I also think about from Splash is her eating the lobster with the shell on. That's the other thing that always sticks with me when I think about Splash. Why would she eat another sea animal? That's what's fucked up about the movie.

That's really fucked up. Yeah, and that was fucking Ron Howard, right? That was the fucking Ron Howard. Ron Howard went in there with his fucking happy day vibes. Yeah. Oh, Mr. And ruined the fucking mermaid movie. Mr.

Smiles. And meanwhile, you never even seen the Fonz dick once on that show. Right. Hey, Darrow, shove that lobster in your puss. Yeah.

Just for one take. Let's see if it work. We won't even use it. Look at Henry Winkler. I got him to put one of the lobster claws up his butt. The other ones clipped on to the front of his balls. He's still saying, a tested high happy days we're not so fucking happy all right so enough with the jingles all right

gary marshal go do some other fucking show go make another show and maybe even i did a short of a funnier die sketch i don't want to name drop i don't want to name drop but i did a funny or die sketch with penny marshal and it was oh i was going to do laverne and shirley next because that was what we're going to yeah please but i want to hear your story you did a thing with penny marshall i'm doing a thing of funnier die sketch with penny marshall and we're in a garage in uh large manhancac park uh in holding uh and she's just smoke still smoking cigarettes in a in a closed garage and i fucking loved it what and what and what would that sound like dana i don't know penny marshal action no i don't know what we should know i'm doing gary shandling sorry god rest both their souls

rest in the fifth dimension. But anyway, whatever, you know, what are we doing? Oh, splash, eating the thing, yeah. Anyway, so back to Big Mouth, and let's go back quickly. I'm just going to keep this moving around. Go back to adults. It's on FX, but then it goes to Hulu. Where everybody's watching it is.

Oh, really? It goes on Hulu. I didn't know they had a kind of a TV. Yeah, FX to Hulu. So you watch, and that really, I will say, so we have these young kids in the show. It really required social media to like embrace it to watch. And it really did work on social media like the like kids on TikTok and Instagram.

All those people were like watching it. But it's what's hard is it's not clear that they're watching the entire show, if not just watching clips and sharing like the relationships that are sort of happening. and then the actors who were playing them, their social media followings, and then, like, communicating about the show, integrated with the people playing it.

It's not like, you know, when we were all making, you know, like Green Acres or, you know, the Andy Griffith show. Like when the three of us met doing Andy Griffith and Don Nott's sort of welcomed us in. Ang?

Well, when Adam West invited us to do the Batman episode, So with Catwoman, that was so. Oh, this is it, the day you finally ask for that big promotion. You're in front of your mirror with your Starbucks coffee. Be confident, assertive, remember eye contact, but also remember to blink. Smile, but not too much. That's weird. What if you aren't any good at your job?

What if they demo you instead? Okay, don't be silly. You're smart, you're driven, you're going to be late if you keep talking to the mirror. This promotion is yours. Go get them.

i just want to make an observation their names were cone heads and what didn't you feel like their heads were shaped like cones in a way i went halfway through i go wait is this on purpose Is it not, is it, I'm connecting that. You know what I mean? Connie Cohnhead was the daughter, just so you know. Also, oh, yeah, Dan, were you in? Sorry, you're in Coneheads, David? Yeah, that's why I'm pushing it.

That's why I'm on the podcast. Well, you're pushing it. They couldn't afford me, Nick. They couldn't afford me. They couldn't get you, so they got Spade. You know, it's funny. I was teamed up with Michael McKeon, and he is our next guest, but on the show. But Michael McKeon was great.

They have a spinal tap. two coming out. Yes. And so many people from S&L were, this is a side note. I don't think Dana was, but I would say it was like Sandler, Farley played Connie Conant's boyfriend.

There was Ackroyd, Jane Curtin, obviously, Lorraine Newman, and then random like Sinbad, Phil Hartman, Ellen to Jenner. There was so many people that had parts in Connitz. Oh, you guys. You guys. You managed to bomb.

But the point was Dan Aykroyd said at one point, what about me and you doing Andy Griffith's show as a movie? You can be Barney, I'd be Andy. And I was like, that's such a funny idea. Yeah. I could see you doing that. Yeah.

Can you do? Barney Five. Can you do it? Yeah, there you go. Ange. I keep doing it. Ange. How great was Don Knott's in the Andy Griffith show?

I mean, come on. And Mr. Furley. He was killing in across the board. I have to be honest. I know him more as Mr. Furley than I do. Which is still a homeowner. that's a as oh my god horny dork the ultimate horny dork but what about the guy before i'm the old guy that goes and his wife always wanted to fuck him mr uh yeah roper yeah mr roper and his wife

was always horny in a moo moomoo and roper just like now looking back like oh just like closeted married like not but i remember seeing the graduate and being like what the like it was one of the first time when I was like, the fuck is Mr. Roper doing in the graduate? Oh, yeah, yeah. Right? What was he doing there? He was, I think, kind of the rent. Yeah, right, he's sort of the landlord. He's the rent guy when doesn't often is the landlord of everyone in the movie. To get the wife. But I sort of like another brilliant movie that really holds up. When I'm a kid and horny, I'm annoyed that Mr. Roper, I'm like, dude, she's throwing you vibes. Yeah, get out of here. Like, I'm horned.

why someone do something yeah so and mr roper shows up to collect the rent now you're blue bald you can't even finish i finish when roper walks in you shoot ropes oh jesus what does this mean who is hard robs to mr roper what is that a line from your perverted show that kind of ropes of blood that would have been on big mouths or something yeah that's sick show that's a i think you do it i like that sick comedy yeah you do it for adults and then kids go hey Oh, look what we found. This show that's funny as shit. They like that.

I saw Life of Brian as a kid. I'm like, oh, this is for adult. I like it. That was what, and I mean, that's the, we didn't quite realize with Big Mouth that that was going to be like, you know, South Park for a bunch of people. It was like the thing you sneak away to watch.

Or Life of Brian. What was the thing in Life of Brian that you remember feeling like? Just that it was a little dirtier and I snuck in. And then I was like, oh shit, there's fucking boobs in here. And a lot of different stuff. And just some of the jokes I didn't get in later. but it was like you feel like you're seeing something you shouldn't like big totally i saw straw dogs with dustin hoffman when i was like 13 that i i i wish i'd

not seen it what it really straw dogs yeah i watched hot dog the movie i had an older brother showed me hot dog the movie when i was like six or seven and was like and i was like my uncle showed me that was an r rated cartoon or no r rate it was an r rated like ski movie it was that kind of ski movies. Yeah, hot dog was a big deal. That was fun. Okay. Yeah, like I was a girl getting out of a hot tub and you can see your boobs. Every four minutes, there was some girl in a tight t-teeat. There was no comedy at all. It's just like, wait for boobs. Well, you know, on my generation, we had a little thing I'd like to call Raquel Welch. What a killer she was. What you got? Yeah. When you were like 16, you know, who was the sex symbol of the day?

fairer man or woman i you know sure sure thank you thank you for that thank you dana uh for me it was um uh tra was Travis yeah it was Travis Kelsey 16 he was one years old i had well let's see you would have been earlier than for me when i was like 13 like there's a period of time where i'm watching you guys on saturday night live and like Cindy crawford is breaking yeah and And that was sort of like the two things that like were my sexual awakening were like Cindy Crawford in a Pepsi commercial and Dana Carvey doing Ross Perot. I know. And I can do Ross Perrault having sex for you.

Yeah, please. Can I finish? Can I finish one time? Can I finish? Can't I finish right now. Dude, this episode was a shockful of shit. That was that was something he would just say when. when, you know, Larry King would interrupt him, but I made it into a sexual.

Did you, can you, did you do Larry King? Did you ever, did you do Larry King? Ronald, Virginia. Yeah, after a while, the town sounded like illnesses. Creeping rash, Minnesota, you're on with Ross. Can't I finish one time, Larry? You're going to interrupt me. No, they were great.

Did you guys ever do that Larry King show that his like Larry King now produced by like Russian television? Did you guys ever do that? I was invited and I was. was going to go on it. He passed away because I just kind of had a lot of fondness for him. But I went on his regular show. And he was, he would come, you would show up before him. He'd come in like two minutes before air. They put the airpiece in because he didn't, he wanted to be just in the moment, you know? And then he just starts asking questions. He was very skilled. I think I went on once with Norm, but I also think that when he walked in, he goes, who are these guys?

Maybe that's Norm McDonald's, David's Babe. What do they do? All right, I'll just make up some shit. Yeah, we're on the air. We're live on you, so you're doing the show. You are killing it in whatever you're job. Ho-Fungus, Missouri. You're on with Norm McDonald's.

Look out, Mountain. Yeah. As-crack, Wyoming, go ahead. Anything else for this guy, we've covered it all. We've covered really, we did cover adults. We did cover Big Mouth. Big Mouth Revolutionary Show. Special.

I've got adults. We've got, let's see. Let's think about some other stuff that I can promote. We've promoted saying enough, right? History of the World Part 1 is out. History of the World Part 2 is out. History of the World Part 1, also out somewhere. They're out somewhere.

The producers. I have no involvement, but the original movie, the producers. Let's promote that, Mel Brooks. That's probably my favorite first Mel Brooks movie. Coneheads, we talked about let's promote cone heads. Cone heads. Coming out on laser disc. Splash, Splash.

On Amazon for a $1.99. Let's talk what about Akroids. Acroids, one of his alien shows. Let's promote that. Let's get the word out. All right, sir. Fair enough, sir. Skull vodka.

Skull vodka. Skull vodka. Let's get the word out for school. You know, the skull vodka is the best thing you can get. You know, that comes up. Let's promote the Chiefs, new season. The Chiefs, Travis Kelsey's football team, the Chiefs. Taylor's got a new album coming out.

Taylor's got a new album coming out. Of course, Happy Day is available wherever you get your... Hey, I didn't want to reveal this, but I'm just going to say it, guys. To be. I don't, I'm not a, but I'm personal friends with Taylor and Travis. So I just want to be sincere for a second to say, please, right on, guys, you're a great match, and I wish you all the best. I do too. I think I'm excited for them. You heard it here first, three days after it's breaking.

Yep. I'm very positive about this. I feel like I've been off. When I heard that news, now I feel like I fell out of the podcast. I've just been thinking about that. You felt in the pocket to me, David. But honestly, if this is a movie, because we've all seen a stars born in the different incarnation. So what happens is he's a football player.

He's going to be in the Hall of Fame, blows out in a key. He's not going to play too much longer. Right. And then he's at home, like, hey, I want to play some ping pong. And she's in Malaysia playing the country. They built a stadium. So she's playing the entire country. A country residency.

He wants five babies. She wants to tour on five continents. So it's kind of like two stars. They're going to have to get some premarital therapy, I think. Yeah. It's like what would happen if they had been the small town versions of themselves. Eight or nine years in, there's going to be some issues. but they figured out.

Do the bodyguard, by the way. She'd be good for the remake. I mean, Travis could play her bodyguard. Yeah, I know. Nick Kroll's been our guest today. It was delightful. We did. Thank you, Nick.

We did it all. 28 minutes of trading Arnold impressions. That was a good one. Can I tell you how just quickly how weird it is to try to do Arnold with you, David? I jumped in there. David is great. Everyone has an Arnold. The coat is broken.

No one's worried about. It's too fun. You've got to jump in. It was so fun. I love seeing you guys. I love your comedy. I love doing your podcast. Thanks for having me. Thanks for coming back again.

We're glad you're well. Look with your next show. I'm wondering if you're going to direct a movie or do another live streaming show or whatever. You're going to do whatever you want. I'm doing Conheads 2. I'm directing Connets 2. I'm writing it right now. You're writing and directing Connets 2.

Okay. Because I have a rough draft of Connets 3. So it would be nice if I could see. I will show you. I will send it to you. As soon as we're done with a first cut, I'll send it to you, okay? All right, I'm going to put the top down.

I'm doing one set in Alaska called the Snow Cone Kids. I'm going to Alaska this week for a gig. There we go. I processed that. Fucking last second promo. Did you know, by the way, get drowned or no? Did you know there was like worried that there was going to be flooding? Did I know what?

For real. Oh, Juno, the city. Yes. don't know. I know I'm going to Palmer. It's outside. Do you know a drunk guy is doing ill-informed

topical of it? Do you know that Juno's underwater? Did you know that is underwater? Where won't you go to do a stand-up set? Dude, I'm going and it's going to be fun of my show in the day. I have to do it out of that.

It's not in June. You know, you've seen the movie, Juno, but still going on the background. Juneau that the movie Juno was. Ask me, Nick, what I'm going to do today. Did you know that Juno was filmed in Juno? Do you know, ask me what I'm going to do today? What are you going to do today? What are you going to do today?

Whatever I want. God. God, there we go. This has been shock full of that movie. Impression. That's a great movie. All right, I'm leaving. All right, thanks, guys.

Bye, guys. Okay, well, that was Nick. he's out now, but I got always a crack up, man. I love that. I like when someone comes on, they want to screw off. They're not so locked into the questions. It's just like, let's go off on so many tangents. We don't even know what we're talking about. Yeah, that was comedy ping pong. And it was just fun. It was, you know, we all got into this Arnold Fest. And they give him point, normally it's like, okay, one minute, this is enough. But I love that he, he just kept going. And then you chimed in and the night went.

And I don't know how long we went, but that might be kind of close to a record for one riff on one impression between three people on our podcast. Yeah, it's fun to, because I can't remember everything because it goes so fast, but I just remember we keep it was, he sort of gives the green light to don't worry about what we're talking about. Let's go off on any tangent we want just to crack up. And, you know, we've done things like that a lot too, where we're doing Senator John Kennedy once for like 10 minutes.

so it is it is very much like what comedians do in real life for sure that's like a green room talk yeah get into a rhythm and then and then someone sort of tops you or does something change a little bit and then it makes you come back and then it's so that was really that was really fun you kind of forget it's insane yeah yeah uh you well uh we want to thank nick kroll and obviously you can see them we talked about there's big mouth there's all the stuff so adults on FX and Hulu that's it yep and we'll see you guys next time and give us your questions and that's it thanks for watching hey guys if you're loving this podcast which you are be sure to click follow on your favorite podcast app give us review five-star rating and maybe
