Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a HeadGum Podcast. Okay, JPC, just stand still. Almost done with your tattoo here. Almost? Okay. I haven't really felt anything yet. I mean, it's not a big tattoo. It's just the name of the show. I'm at the end. Wait, hold on. How do you spell riddle?
Starting point is 00:00:50 You're asking me? Okay. Addle? Yeah? How do you spell riddle? Whoa, what's this? Hey Rubble Rubble. Come on, Erin. A Hey Rubble Rubble tattoo? Actually, that could work. I do love rubble. Oh, God. What are D's and what are B's? I should have asked. And you know what I thought to ask before I started the tattoo?
Starting point is 00:01:08 Your parents didn't give you the D's and the B's speech? That made more sense in my head. Did we get to lay over a... Okay, we all got it. Some dots, some dots. I got it. Everyone's nodding. Um, I'm sorry. Nah, it's okay. I can't blame you for this. Erin, your line work is exquisite.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Thanks. I spelled it wrong, though. It's dumb. I probably am not gonna get one at this point though, cause it won't match yours, cause I wanted Hey Riddleriddle, so. You could get a tattoo that matches the one that you messed up on me. No, no, no. You'll get the tattoo, we'll, we'll.
Starting point is 00:01:34 Pay for it? No. Oh, come on. You'll get that and we'll keep going with our day as it was. Wait, pay for it, Erin gave it to you. She's charging you? Yeah, of course. Yeah, well she's learning.
Starting point is 00:01:44 It'll be $6,000. So I have to pay for it, you know, of course. Yeah, well, she's learning. It'll be $6,000. So I have to pay for it, you know, I have to pay for the inexperience fee, basically. Yeah, $6,000. And Erin also charged me an idiot tax? Yeah. You'll have to explain that to me one day, because I just don't get it yet. Yeah, you will never will, and that's why you have to pay it. Okay. Oh, and this is Hey Riddle Riddle. It's an Improvin' Riddle's podcast.
Starting point is 00:02:01 I'm one of the guys, there's another one, and Erin's also here as well. And me as well, and also me. And?'s also here as well. And me as well. And also me. And also me. Special guest, huh? Mm-hmm. Huh? Huh?
Starting point is 00:02:11 Special guest, huh? Uh-huh. Yeah? Uh-huh. Special guest, huh? We have Nicole Thurman with us. Woo! Woo!
Starting point is 00:02:19 Woo! I was kind of hoping that none of you guys remembered my name and that was what was happening. Oh no. I was like, great, yeah. The guest is. Nicole Nerman. Right before we started, Adel was like,
Starting point is 00:02:29 I wanna introduce Nicole. And I was like, okay, so I'm giving him the opportunity. You just looked at him and nothing happened. Nicole, we got to do improv together for the first time a couple months ago. And I immediately felt such a Chicago kinship with you on the stage. My body could just feel that you such a Chicago kinship with you on the stage. My body could just feel that you were a Chicago person
Starting point is 00:02:48 and it was like, I felt like flying. I had the time of my life. I agree. First of all, I did have a good set that day, which I don't normally say, but lately I've been very rusty and improvising. Like I keep saying like that was the worst show of my life when I leave and I'm like, well, it could get worse,
Starting point is 00:03:04 I guess, every time I just try. But no, I'm just joking. But it was, that was a fun, that was the worst show of my life when I live in a mic. It could get worse, I guess, every time I just try. But no, I'm just joking. But that was a fun, that was a really fun show. And it was just great, yeah. You did something and it was the hardest I've laughed in the last three years. I was a teacher. I do a comedy show with you, so that sucks to hear.
Starting point is 00:03:17 I know, but you guys are so funny and this is how funny this was. I was a teacher who was trying to gain control of her class and I pointed at Nicole and I went, you do cursive and you made what is the craziest noise I've ever heard a human person make. And I lost my mind. Immediate tears.
Starting point is 00:03:35 It was like that kind of noise. Cursive, cursive. That's a person doing cursive. All the letters are attracted to this. Exactly. And I was just like, that was the first thing that came to my head. Iting cursive, yeah. Like that. All the letters are attractive. That's attractive. Exactly, and I was just like, that was the first thing that came to my head. It was a very fun show.
Starting point is 00:03:49 I immediately burst into tears. It was a very fun show. I was like, well, that's the best moment of my life. I'll never recover from it. And you definitely can feel the Chicago energy on that too. You're right. It was a very fun show because yeah, there's something about the Chicago can ship,
Starting point is 00:04:01 the community, the love, the like, my manager didn't make me take an improv class, that's not why I'm here. You know? It's something different. It's more for like the love of the game. And so the people, the performers are different. So it's fun. Yeah, I love it.
Starting point is 00:04:15 I used to teach improv classes in Chicago and I don't think I ever heard anyone come to an improv class and say, because I would ask level one students, like, what are you doing here? Like, why do you want to do, I'd stop a scene and like, what are you doing here? Like, why do you wanna do, I'd stop a scene and I'd say, what are you doing here? How did you get in the building?
Starting point is 00:04:29 But no one would ever say, I'm here because an agent told me to come here. It looks good on a resume. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's kind of refreshing. I think that's also, I mean, when I first moved here, a reason why a lot of people liked LA, or Chicago people in LA,
Starting point is 00:04:41 because they know that we come from like a off-loop storefront theater and make no money and we're cool with it we do shows for nothing so they're like they want to work they love it like I said they do it for the love of the game so it's like it's you know it's a different I think it's it's like when you're okay what am I talking about it's like when you're a kid and you're just like playing games but then suddenly you grow up and you start thinking about the games you're playing and so you worry about like is this game fun or whatever you know I mean and so instead worry about like, is this game fun? Or whatever, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:05:05 And so instead, we just, Chicago people just like to have fun. They just like to be together and play. You know what I think helps with that, that I don't feel like happens as much out here, is in Chicago, in the people in your classes and teams, would be some people who have absolutely no interest in going into show business, like lawyers or therapists, and people who are like, I'm doing this sort of like,
Starting point is 00:05:23 as my pickleball league or my church every week. Like where I go and I have a drink and I hang out with people. And I think that adds to the community of it and adds to like the low pressure of like, this is the event. This is not as a means to something else. Yes, definitely.
Starting point is 00:05:38 I was telling my boxing teacher the other day because I'm thinking about teaching boxing. I love boxing. I just take classes. So I'm not like, I don't spar with people, but like I'm a pretty good boxer. I like to punch. Punch, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:48 As hard as you. I'm just like knocking him out. He's so sweet. Yay. I got his ass, he did. It wouldn't be hard before. It would be easy to kill me with a punch, okay? Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:05:58 It wouldn't be that hard. It wouldn't be that impressive. Yeah, you'd be like, you don't have to hit me that hard. My face is made of cheese, so get over it. No, but I was telling her about it. I was like, you should take an improv class. Like, everybody take,
Starting point is 00:06:09 because she was saying she wanted to take one. I was like, everybody should take an improv class. Because it helps you like learn how to communicate with people, listening to them, and like, just, you know, vibing. Yes. If you want to get cool vibes, take an improv class. I told an allergist once, my allergist,
Starting point is 00:06:24 not just a stand allergist. Just the one on the street. I was like, you, allergist, take an improv class. I told an allergist once, my allergist, not just Ann, the allergist. Just the one on the street. I was like, you, allergist, take an improv class. He was, and he asked me, he was like, am I too old? And I was like, how old are you? Because the only way that I would ever ask that question is if someone volunteered, am I too old?
Starting point is 00:06:39 And he was like, 56, and I was like, no. Like, you're, you could obviously take an improv. I'd say if you answered 89, I'd be like, yeah, maybe make a mince or something. Maybe you know what to do. You can improv class. Zip, zap, zop cannot save you now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:54 It might zop you out for good. We don't need to be doing that. I've ever seen improv not work for someone or a group of people, was I have done a lot of corporate improv and it's always, uh, pretty cool to be there. And it's like a breakthrough of like, Oh, yeah. If I support someone else's idea, that feels good. Or at least to them, I did a workshop for Boeing.
Starting point is 00:07:15 So they came in from, I think they're based in Seattle or something, but we're running exercises. Now they're based in Chicago. Eight day. Is it, are they really? Yeah. It's like an eight day, are they really? Yeah, they're high-quartes moves. It's like, not an eight day, it's an eight hour workshop. But we were doing some exercise, and at some point, this one guy just like got frustrated and goes, can you tell me what the answer is? And I go, huh? And the exercise is something where it's like
Starting point is 00:07:35 one word story or something. And he goes, can you tell me what the answer is? And I go, there's no right answer. And he goes, just tell me the answer. But they're engineer brains. Yeah. So they're like, give me the blueprint. And I'm like, there's no wrong answer. As he goes, just tell me the answer. But they're engineer brains. So they're like, give me the blueprint. And I'm like, there's no wrong answer.
Starting point is 00:07:47 As long as you don't deny the person who went before you, there's no wrong answer. And he goes, did you just tell me what to say? And I go, and he's like stopping the whole thing. And I'm like, this is not for, for these people, this is useless. He's like, could you just script this for me? But then at Boeing, they don't even read
Starting point is 00:08:05 all the directions, do they? Because the planes are crashing. That's a really good point. So like, what do they care about the rules? Well, actually, all that mess only happened after all the improv classes, because they started like improvising, putting doors on the planes.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Yeah, you could be anything, there's no answer. The guy's crying and he's like, I was told that it could go anywhere. A man in a suit who looked like he'd never worn a suit before told me to save it. It's your fault. I misunderstood the exercise.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Nicole, we ask this to every guest that comes on the show. What is your relationship with like puzzles, riddles, escape rooms, lateral thinking problems, daily word puzzles? That's an interesting question actually, because if I think about it, my immediate answer is I'm not big on them, but actually, it depends on what it is.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Oh my God, I just hit this mic. It depends on what it is. If it's like trivia, word puzzles I like, crossword puzzles, I've never done a Sudoku or like, wordle, but I feel like I would like them. They're just, people are annoying that talk about it. So I just don't do it I don't want to be dead. I don't want to say I got the word steam in two This episode is steam into
Starting point is 00:09:26 20 friends to be like, eh, it's like, yeah, right, right. They used to post it on Twitter. I'm like, bitch, don't put it in the trash. You've got 56,000 followers, none of us care. But yeah, so I've never been into that. I like puzzles, I like things that I do. Okay, yeah, it's interesting because I think if you were like, let's sit down and do a puzzle, I'd be like, ew.
Starting point is 00:09:41 But if you were like, let's put together this thing, I'm not exactly sure how to do it, I'd be so into it. And I wouldn't wanna be done until I did it. So I think it's like a mixed bag with that kind of stuff. Yeah. If there's rules to be explained, I'm out. If it's pretty clear, I can do it and I'm having fun. And like riddles, I don't know how I am with riddles.
Starting point is 00:10:00 I think I'm gonna find out on Hey Riddle Riddle. Yeah, what a place to find out. I know. I don't have much experience. I keep thinking limerick every time you guys say riddle. So I'm just like, I don't even know what I'm gonna find out on Hey Riddle Riddle. Yeah, what a place to find out. I know. I don't have much experience. I keep thinking limerick every time you guys say riddle. So I'm just like, I don't even know what I'm in for. Think of this as a Boeing corporate workshop where there is no wrong answer. There's no way you can absolutely fucking hate riddles
Starting point is 00:10:16 and you're gonna fit in really well. I love it. I love it. Have you done an escape room? No, never. I think an escape room would be fun. If you were with the right people. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:27 It's like everybody has to be like, chill but adding ideas. Or like whatever the thing is. You guys have to like answer questions or whatever. Like somebody has to, you have to contribute. But I would never wanna go in with like somebody who was super hyper and stressed out. Cause that would just give me anxiety
Starting point is 00:10:46 and I'd be like, I gotta escape the room now or else. That would be me. Are you super intense about it? Yeah, well, I think it's contagious. Anytime I'm with people who really wanna get out, I'm like, if I'm the person who fails for us, I'll never forgive myself. So that will make me hyper and panicky.
Starting point is 00:11:02 One person can fail the whole group. Yeah, I would probably get intense then in that situation. It does tend to highlight people's hidden personalities. Where you see people turn into Taipei where they're like, shut up, put stuff here. And you're like, whoa, like, we're supposed to be having fun. And people get intense.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Hopefully, Erin, we've done some rooms. We've done some rooms, JPC. There was one time. I think it doesn't count for you, Adil, because you're hyper aware of that fact. So it's like, it's very easy to not fall into it because you're so aware of it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:31 We did a world new show in Kalamazoo, Michigan. And as a warmup, me, Adel, and two other improvisers, Brett Lyons and Atra Azduz, right? Because that was the four of us, right? Yeah, yeah. Did an escape room. And we had like a two hour improv show right after this escape room. So we had like a two hour improv show
Starting point is 00:11:45 right after this escape room. So I was like, we're gonna have fun, we're gonna do bits, and we're on this like submarine. I'm like, guys, we're on a submarine. They're like, shut up. Okay, this is Morse code and the numbers. And it was the most stressful hour of my life. The most stressful escape room.
Starting point is 00:11:58 No one was being funny. Three of the funniest comedians in Chicago. The fun left the room. And then we got to the show and everyone was like. Oh my God. And I was like, oh my God, what a terrible energy for this impromptu. Oh no, no, no, we fucked up.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Wow. That's like when people used to talk about like couples taking trips to Ikea. It's like the new thing, the challenge, or the way to test a relationship is like, can we escape a room without killing each other? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:23 Let's get into some riddles. Okay. And Nicole, just so you know. I keep hitting this one, sorry. They are, Erin, last episode Erin knocked it from the bottom into her face and almost. I punched myself in the face. Yeah, now I'm gonna do that too.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Why is this so wobbly? Okay, we're good. No, you're like boxing them. It's like you're not punching it towards you. You're absolutely clobbering them. I'm giving it uppercuts and whatnot, that's why. So riddles can be very bad and very sort of frustrating. So keep that in mind.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Yeah, I mean, they can be frustrating, but you can choose. You can choose. To get frustrated. How do you wanna receive it, really? That's the thing. But here's the first riddle, and I feel like this will be, I feel like this will be a good one, especially for Nicole.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Oh, sounds challenging. Okay. There's one sport in which neither the spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends. What is it? The score or the leader. And the spectator and the participants
Starting point is 00:13:23 don't know the score or the leader until it's over. I was gonna say like a track race, but the spectators would know. Yeah, there's a front runner. You saw what it's a sport? Yeah, it's a sport. And are we using like sport in quotes? No, it's a sport.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Okay, this is an actual sport. There's one sport in which neither the spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends. What is it? Wait, is it like hunting? Ooh. Wow.
Starting point is 00:13:47 That's a great guess because. Because the animals are like, what the hell? And then the spectators are like, we don't know who's winning. We heard shots. Because they're shooting. Exactly. Until the dogs go grab the foxes.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Um, hunting is a great guess. It's not hunting, but uh, Nicole, I think this is, this is a good one for you especially. Okay, is it boxing? It's boxing. Is it boxing? It's boxing. Is it boxing? It's boxing. Wait, the spectators and the participants don't know
Starting point is 00:14:09 that they're watching a sport or playing? I mean, that's what it says here. But also when you're watching, you know who's landed the punch. Well, maybe if you're watching two dudes just punch each other back and forth on the street drunkenly, and you're like, hey, we're watching the boxing match, and nobody knew it.
Starting point is 00:14:22 The sweet science. That's interesting. I don't know how boxing is scored because I've never watched boxing, but I do know that if no one wins versus knockout, they tally up who did the best and then award a winner. But do you as the boxer not know if you did the best? Yeah, what?
Starting point is 00:14:39 Like wouldn't you know? Because I know that you don't end a round of boxing and they say, you got 13 points, pretty good. I know it's not that, but how do they decide who wins is basically my question. I think it's like, Nicole, do you know? Go ahead. Well, I was gonna say, I was only gonna say that I'm thinking of it right now. Think about the end of like boxing matches
Starting point is 00:14:55 when the ref is like, woo, and holds up the guy and the guy's like, yeah. And so I think it's like that unless it's a clear knockout. Because I think there's so many rounds and you could go round for round until the round runs out and both be good and not knocked out all the way till the end. And by that point, somebody's gotta win somehow.
Starting point is 00:15:11 So maybe that is. Is it subjective? Do the refs just be like, I think this guy did the best or I don't think this person. I think they count punches and something. Punches landed versus punches thrown. Whoa. And then also like. That sucks, my ratio would be dirt.
Starting point is 00:15:23 I throw a thousand punches and maybe get 10. But I guess you do see. I think you'd be more tired that way, so like. Every once in a while you do see a boxing match where you're like, oh clearly it's this person and then the other person wins and you're like, that's an upset. So there is some subjectivity,
Starting point is 00:15:37 but I think for the most part, they're counting punches landed. Sure, okay, okay. I'd like to say a scene. Oh please. Nicole and JPC, you were two drunk guys boxing on the street And then you realize that you don't really know why you're mad at each other You're not even gonna happen anymore. Oh, it's gonna. Yeah, well. It's gonna be true
Starting point is 00:15:59 And it's gonna be next time is gonna be you on the ground. I'm gonna be upstairs. Yeah, right I've been going to knock out USA for three weeks. So I know what my favorite water park is Wow while we'll knock out what world and my favorite ride is shut up. Oh good one And now I'm gonna fight him too. Oh! You kinda hurt my hand a little bad. I don't care. We're gonna keep fighting until you apologize. What'd I do? Mmm... It was not what you did, it was the way you did it.
Starting point is 00:16:35 What was the way? Just so mean. No, you don't even know. I don't see anything mean. I'm very nice. So nasty. No, you didn't nasty. I meditate. Oh, bulls. Before I take boxing class, I go to transcendental meditation. That seems odd to do.
Starting point is 00:16:48 That seems like a very weird order to do. I gotta get in the zone before I knock bitches out. And that's what I'm doing right now. Ooh, my leg. Ow. I did a kick. I don't think you can knock somebody out by hitting them in the leg.
Starting point is 00:17:00 That's OK. I'll try again. Poom. I'm getting pretty sleepy. Why are you mad at me, man? Just give it up I don't do anything mean is it wasn't your girl? I think you took my pillow I think we're both trying to go to sleep at this bed I told you as roommates we gotta get our own rooms
Starting point is 00:17:17 I know but the hospital won't let us have our own rooms because we don't have insurance That is fucked up that they do make you split a room in a hospital. Yeah, every time I've had been that, I've been like, hi. I got so lucky and had two personal rooms. Wow. When I was in two hospitals last year.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Wow. I was very lucky. I was laying there with that broken back like, bitch. I'm alone. I'm rich in life. They said something like, your SAG insurance got you a private room and I was like, yay? I don't know, bitch. I'm alive. I'm rich in life. They said something like, your SAG insurance got you a private room. And I was like, yay?
Starting point is 00:17:48 I don't know, what are we doing? No, but that is crazy that they make you share rooms. And I feel like those, it's always like a crazy loud. Yeah. That would be traumatizing. Because I guess it's like they probably do it when it's not like a contagious whatever between two people. But even like a hospital,
Starting point is 00:18:05 I'm always worried about germs in a hospital because I'm like, this is where sick people go. That's the worst. Isn't that the place you can get the sickest at a hospital? Yeah. They play too much. They don't care about us.
Starting point is 00:18:13 They don't care about us. Yeah, they pull the curtain. They pull that thin ass little curtain. They're like, there's actually a medical curtain. This is different than the curtains you have on the windows at home. This is for medical. It's like a germs curtain.
Starting point is 00:18:23 I was in a room with someone and they just wanted to watch Wheel of Fortune and it ended and I was so happy and then They picked up their mode and changed it to a different channel. That was playing wheel Gosh, I do remember one time sharing I think that we had the curtain closed for like one of my last days And this lady came in and she was like a really loud eater. She did one those like old I'm sorry but old people come on what are you doing when you eat I just gotta be honest here they ate differently back then they just chomped it, mushed it, like it all over the face they don't move it but anyway she was doing like eating and sighing thing do you ever hear people like eww and you're like what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:19:03 luckily I got to leave that day. Yeah, I had to split an ambulance with somebody one time and they kept apologizing to me because it was their fault I was in the ambulance. It's like an Uber share. Yeah, and I had to say, dude, don't talk to me. Wearing an ambulance, can you please not talk to me about this?
Starting point is 00:19:18 Yeah, makes sense. Yeah, I know. And I think that they charged me full price for that ambulance ride. Shouldn't I get half price? You should get half price? Yeah It's like you get like it's like over pool. It's a little bit less, right? Yes You're sitting in a car with somebody you don't know you're gonna pay less. Yeah, the other guys said like I'm with him
Starting point is 00:19:35 He's like, oh, yeah, actually he's got me on this ambulance, right? It's did with the other guy hurt to or was he just there to a pause a car accident that he caused So he was like apologizing for the car accident, but I'm like, I'm not in a space where I can receive this apology. Not ready to forgive. In 10 years, we can talk. It's too real.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Right, this is too recent, too soon. Find me when I'm older and we can talk. Let's do another riddle. Please. The letter, oh, okay. If there are 40 cups. The letter. The letter.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Is the answer the letter? Is that the answer? No. If there are 40 cups, if there are four teacups on the table and one cup breaks. Four teacups? How many teacups are left?
Starting point is 00:20:17 This seems like three teacups. Four teacups on a table and one break. Is it 40 or four teacups? It seems like the whole riddle is that it's four teacups and it seems like it's three teacups Oh like 40 cups? 39? The answer is three we started with four teacups and one broke Now Adel did you intend to mystify that or did you cuz you you kind of telegraphed
Starting point is 00:20:35 I was trying to grease the wheels I need to hear this really good so it's four teacups and then when you take one away It's three if there are 40ups on the table and one cup breaks, how many teacups are left? Three. The riddles suck. Okay, so riddles suck. Okay, is this kind of like a riddle book? It's like a riddle book.
Starting point is 00:20:52 It's like it's 40 cups. What are these from, Adil? A riddle book. Yeah. Okay, good. Yeah, that'll do it. That's why. Because some riddles are bangers and then some are like that.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Because that's just math, right? Four minus one is three. I mean, that's kind of how books work though, too, because it's like a lot of the stuff in books is page filler. Yeah, that's true. I can't tell you how many chapter books I read where I'm like, first paragraph, last paragraph, that's all you need in a chapter book. And you're like, where is the sexy,
Starting point is 00:21:14 with the heaving buzzer, what is taking so long? I would like to see a scene. You three are three members of high society having afternoon tea, and you're trying to like out fancy each other a little bit. So I just bought my chauffeur a chauffeur. Oh, that's lovely.
Starting point is 00:21:30 So the way that it works is my chauffeur will drive me around all day and then when they're ready to go home, they have a chauffeur that takes them home. Oh, I love that for them. Yeah, that's perfect. What do you call the chauffeur for your chauffeur so there's no confusion? We just call him Ed. I almost lost my tea on that one. And I don't know the man's name. What do you call the chauffeur for your chauffeur so there's no confusion? We just call him Ed. It's no- Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, bought myself a Vince Vaughn. Now, not a Vince Vaughn type, but Vince Vaughn.
Starting point is 00:22:08 So what he'll do is I'll come home and I'll step into the foyer and he'll talk very quickly and with confidence. Yes. And he's so tall. Tall. And the missus and I just adore it. So he's always around and he stays in the guest house, but it's just a little something we picked up. Is this a Swingers-era Vince Vaughn,
Starting point is 00:22:27 or did you buy vintage? I know it's a little more pricey, if you want to give it an original model. We all want Swingers-era. This is made-era Vince Vaughn, so close to Swingers. Close, but... But more of him just talking and talking, you know? How does that not drive you crazy?
Starting point is 00:22:44 I had Tom Cruise in my house once and he just jumped on couches. Over and over and over. I was like, get out! Couches are almost impossible to clean. That's why we have Eds. No! I shouldn't see if Ed could clean couches.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Chauffeur sounds like the job title of someone who cleans a couch. Driving is not a one-to-one. It's like you chauffeur the couch who cleans a couch. Yes. Driving is not a one-to-one. It's like you chauffeur the couch. Yes. Absolutely. What else? What else? What else? I was going to say, does anybody want to eat one of these tiny cakes?
Starting point is 00:23:15 It's, you know, it's just sitting there on the tower of cakes and cheese. Yes, I would eat one, but the people that we've... that the cakes are stacked on top of are moving a little much for my pleasure. I'm wondering if their movement has some so upset. We're scared. Shush up, shush up. Rosalinda, let's talky more table. Yes, ma'am.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Back to the orphanage with you if you can't be a table. That's right. Yes. Less talking more table is really fucking good, I can't wait to get money. As soon as I get money, the world is, oh yeah, the world's gonna be different. I'm gonna slap all the butlers. I've seen Rich eat sushi off naked people.
Starting point is 00:23:53 We should eat cake off naked people. That should be a thing. Yeah, cake would be way better to eat off a naked person than sushi. It's so decadent, actually. You know what would be the coolest? Make a person and then you cut into them and they cake. Oh, is it cake? the coolest make a person and then you cut into him and they cake
Starting point is 00:24:08 That's a rich person thing Very real. Yeah, and then they turn out to be cake. Is this murder or dessert? Because if you're rich and they're not cake it's fine as well because you're like a rich, you know, you're a psychopath Murderer dessert. Yeah, why not new TV show this guy's cake and it's like Murder or dessert? Yeah, why not? New TV show. This guy's cake and it's like, I'm not clear yet. I'm not cake. I'm not cake.
Starting point is 00:24:27 He's talking. I have to check. Mikey Day is throwing up in the corner. He was just, that was a sound guy. He was a PA. He just got open a PA. That's so funny. In which sport do winners move backwards?
Starting point is 00:24:38 Boxing. Oh, I was gonna say arm wrestling. In which sport do winners move backwards and losers move forwards? Winners move backwards and losers move forwards? I bet, wait, that's wrong. I was gonna say rowing. Rowing is such a good guess. Because you know they all go backwards.
Starting point is 00:24:54 It's a good guess. But no one goes forward. Wait, winners go forward. But the boats go forwards when they row backwards? No, this is nothing. Adel's looking at me like it is maybe something. I know, he's got those eyes, but no. He's doing the teacher eyes, like,
Starting point is 00:25:05 that's a good answer, not correct. Share with the rest of the class. He's excited for me to have a bad answer. They go backwards to win, forwards to lose. I was thinking also, like, but this is, you said sport, and this is a sport, Adle. It's like checkers or something like that. It's not like an Olympic level sport.
Starting point is 00:25:22 What about chess? It's not chess, that's a great guess. I don't even know how to play chess, but I just guess, because they go backwards sometimes. I can tell that you didn't know how to play chess, because you keep moving your pieces backwards, off the board. I don't want to do this, I want to go home.
Starting point is 00:25:35 You know when roller skaters skate backwards and it's really cool? Whoa, yeah, like a 70s roller blader, is that it? I'm forward zillow, that's kind of a good one. You don't like my Easter? Why not? I don not a good one. You don't like my answer? Um... Why not? I don't like your answer. No, that's good.
Starting point is 00:25:49 You don't like my answer, sir? Erin, it feels like you'd be someone at a roller rink who'd be like, look, look, look, look, and then would, like, slay him into someone else. Last time I was at a roller rink, I fell backwards and I hit my tailbone and I had to sit on a special pillow for eight weeks. Eight weeks!
Starting point is 00:26:03 Yeah, you guys remember that? Erin, you know I hate hearing stories about your life, right? I know. They make you sad, I know. They make me sad to hear. Maybe it was six weeks. Erin, you've got more special pillows than any person I've ever met.
Starting point is 00:26:13 We were recording the podcast at the time. I would talk about it all the time. Yeah, about your special pillows, yeah. Did they give it to you at the hospital? Like, was it the donut one? Yeah. Yeah. Wow, that would be, I think that, to me, seems like one of the most painful injuries.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Breaking your, did you break it? No, I like bruised it or something, but it hurt so bad. The next day I just couldn't walk. Makes me kind of barfy. Like I've hurt my tailbone before and it's like, oh, so bad. It was visceral. And Erin, you had stomach surgery
Starting point is 00:26:37 and they put one of those cones on your head so you wouldn't lick the stitches. Yeah, but I got them up anyway. I got them, I worked around it. What if it's golf? Wait, did you already say golf was not it? I have not, but. Because you know how sometimes some sports,
Starting point is 00:26:48 you have to get a low score to win and a high score to lose, so that's backwards and forwards, right, kinda? That is a phenomenal guess. That is not what it shows here, but. I like the way you say. We're gonna give that points, for sure. Points, okay. What about tennis?
Starting point is 00:27:00 Is tennis anything? No. No. Tennis is nothing. Tennis is nothing? So sport, they move backwards? Say this again. In which sport do winners move backwards and losers move forwards?
Starting point is 00:27:13 And I really, I do have to stress sport is, this is not something where you hear it and you're like, oh, you're an athlete. This is a sport you play. Could it be like bowling or something? It's not like that. It's a more casual happening. Or like an eating contest?
Starting point is 00:27:27 I'm not sure, I'm trying to think of how that would be. It's definitely an event we're all familiar with, but to call it a sport is pretty strong terms. Okay. Oh my gosh, I really wish I could figure this out. Spelling Bee. What's an event? This is something, maybe you'd see this at like a picnic.
Starting point is 00:27:42 Or a frisbee? Frisbee's a good, I mean... So what about like a three-legged race? Oh, croquet or something? Maybe camp. Not croquet. Gym class. Cornhole, not cornhole.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Cornhole is correct. Right, swimming forward. Yeah. Gym class, camp, a picnic. Climbing the rope. You're close, you're very close. Spelunking. Cold.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Spelunking works though. Freezing. I guess you're not moving backwards, you'reelunking. Cold. Spelunking worse though. Freezing. I guess you're not moving backwards, you're just moving down. Okay. And this is a quote unquote sport that involves teams. Typically.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Oh, tug of war. It's tug of war. Nice. I never would have guessed that. That's amazing. I wanna see a quick scene. We're gonna see a scene. So you three are going to be on a tug of war team.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Um, uh, but, uh, and I'll be on the other team, but I just, I don't have a team. It's just me on the other team. Okay, let's huddle up. Game plan, game plan. All right. So should we do one big yank? Should we? Oh, I think, um, I think Hank said that it's a, it's two on two for the day. No, sorry Team versus you know, I know we are we all we all work at the same Starbucks. Give us one second. Oh, yeah Sorry, yeah You know what? I think we should just go over there and just push him over. Yeah I mean that weird the rope that won't get us any points, but I think he needs it's worth it
Starting point is 00:29:03 I think he might be like 17 and we're like 30 something. Yeah, I thought he said Zach I thought he said that you're on my team cuz he was like what did Hank say I Thought Hank said that Zach was supposed to be on my team is like gonna be a two Are you like a Brent you look like a Brent? Oh, no, I work with you guys. It's Bradley. Yeah Bradley I've worked here for two years with you guys. Can you give us a quick second? We're having a team meeting sure, but I feel like I should be a team. Would you like to fuck off for one second? Whoa, okay. Okay. Does he understand that like we are not on his team? Don't think so. This is going on. This is so sad. This is so awkward.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Okay, so we're just gonna pull as hard as we can and hopefully he's face like face plants in the dirt Maybe you two pull as hard as you can and I'll like the pants or something. I just feel like he needs. Double humiliation. We need to teach him a lesson. Do we know why Hank went home after he made the teams? Cause like I thought he was supposed to be here the whole day doing like the team building stuff.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Hank's picking up his son from college. Bradley, put your hands on the rope and just get ready. Okay buddy, it's happening. Oh, well, I don't know. I mean, everyone's so much bigger than me and I just. Oh, my pants. Oh, all the skin's so much bigger than me and I just... Ah! My pants! Oh! Seeds.
Starting point is 00:30:07 All the skin off his hands. Oh no! Seeds. His skin came off like gloves. Who's gonna clean that up? Oh, skin came off like gloves, I hate hearing about that. Oh, I hated that sound! I know, sorry.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Eww. Skin came off like gloves. Skin came off like gloves! What happened here? Skin came off like gloves. You know off like gloves. What happened here? Skin came off like gloves. You know how that happens. You know how gloves is basically skin.
Starting point is 00:30:28 Yeah, that's how they came up with that. Yeah. Like someone took their skin off, they're like, there's got to be an easier way. Skin is gloves I regrow. Wow. Wow. Gloves I regrow, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Let's take a break to reflect on that. Kind of ponder that, yeah. And we'll be right back with more skin. The skin is the gloves we made a long way. I'm gonna try not to throw up during the break thinking about this imagery. Good luck to me! One, two, three, four, eight,
Starting point is 00:30:50 Ritual, ritual. Ritual, ritual. Wait guys, stop fist fighting. Argument over. I have a solution to all of our problems. What? Stop fist fighting, okay, I guess I can stop. I never even thought of that.
Starting point is 00:31:04 We don't have to argue, but we're watching tonight anymore on the TV. I know we're watching. What? Stop fist fighting, okay, I guess I can stop. I never even thought of that. We don't have to argue about what we're watching tonight anymore on the TV. I know what we're watching. What's that? Okay. Our diets? We're going to Hulu Animahem, your animation destination to watch full seasons
Starting point is 00:31:16 and new episodes of your favorite animated shows. Okay, I've heard of this. Yeah, I agree to that. I've heard of this. Yeah, I've heard of this. But wait, Aaron, I will not stop fighting and I will not watch what you say unless I can stream stone cold animated favorites like Family Guy, Futurama, and Bob's Burgers. So help me-
Starting point is 00:31:35 Put down your fists. That's what's on there. What? Cut the JPC pulling off his fists and setting them down, not realizing what Aaron meant. Cut back to now. Okay, but-but-, that's fine for me, but I know Adol's not gonna stop fighting unless he can watch his favorites like Solar Opposites, Hit Monkey, and American Dad.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Take off your fists, Adol. Cut to me taking off my fists, not realizing what Aaron meant. Cut back to now. Plus, you can watch some of the freshest animated series around like The Great North, Grimsburg, and Crapopolis, and so many more. OK, now we cut back and we're, it's Adel and I,
Starting point is 00:32:11 we're like hanging out without our fists and we're trying to drink coffee. We keep reaching for the coffee cup and like bumping into the coffee cup and then like a big chicken breaks in and we start fighting the chicken or like rolling around with the chicken. Hey, what happened to your fists?
Starting point is 00:32:23 So if you're looking for your favorite animated shows, there's only one destination you need to remember. Hulu Animahem, your animation destination, now streaming on Hulu. I'm going to kill Aaron, and I'm going to be the third host of Havis Little. Oh, from Bob's Burgers. Yes.
Starting point is 00:32:39 That's H. John Benjamin. Ha ha. Hey, Aaron Adel. Hey. Thanks for joining me. Unfortunately, I have to give you guys back your $250. I just don't think I thought I would be able to teach you JPC, but it's just like language wise, it's just like too difficult to learn how to speak it. Well, that makes it. Huh.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Well, that that makes sense. Yeah, I did. Actually, keep the 250 because I've been learning through Babel. Have you heard of Babel? Oh, wait, Babel, isn't that the science-backed language learning app that gets you talking? But they don't even teach you JPC on that app. That's not even one of the official languages you could learn. Well, it's just I've been holding back on travel plans
Starting point is 00:33:28 because I'm afraid of the language gap. But with Babbel, there's no need to mind the gap because they teach you whatever language you want to learn. And I don't have to waste hundreds of dollars on private tutors like yourself. That's the old school way of learning a new language. All I have to do is go to Babbel's 10-minute lessons that are so quick and handcrafted by over 200 language experts. Ready to get you talking your new language in three weeks.
Starting point is 00:33:53 Because talking is the key to really knowing any language. Yeah, but Babbel is designed by real people for having real conversations. Babbel, you know, gets you talking. But, you know, JPC is designed by one crazy man to talk in a language that only one person in the world understands. Isn't that better? We agree. I mean, I'm going to Japan soon,
Starting point is 00:34:15 and I've been using Babbel to learn, um, some Japanese. Yeah, but with JPC you can learn to say thank you like a thousand different ways. You can go, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and hey those are both thank you in JPC. Oh boy. Yeah, a lot of JPC is just going hey get out of here. Oh okay thank you I have lost a little weight. Don't just take my word for it studies from Yale, Michigan State University and beyond continue to prove Babbel works. One study found that using Babbel for 15 hours is equivalent to a full semester at college. That's amazing. With over 16 million subscribers sold,

Starting point is 00:35:40 Sorry about how wet I am. I guess there's no good way to say that. Sorry about how wet I am. I guess there's no good way to say that. Sorry about how wet I am.

Yeah, I know that works with Squarespace, but I've been doing it all underwater. And JPC, you can upload video content, organize your video library, and showcase your content on one beautiful video page. You can even sell access to your video library
Starting point is 00:36:55 by adding a paywall to your content. Looks like you have a lot of videos already uploaded of you in the lake. Yeah, it's just hard because it's underwater. I don't think I have an underwater camera for down there. It takes forever to upload because it has to upload through all the lake. Yeah, it's just hard because it's underwater. I don't think I have an underwater camera for down there. It takes forever to upload because it has to upload through all the water. Cameras should work underwater.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Yeah, I don't think. Oh, but the nice thing about Squarespace is they have a fluid engine.

Starting point is 00:38:30 Well, the truth is that I have been sending an acapella app, $50 a month for the last six months. I downloaded it, rocket money, and they caught it for me and then they canceled it for me. Thank God, right? That's so much money. Yeah, that's a lot of money.

Nauseo, nausea wise? She's not opening her mouth because I saw her put a bunch of pennies in there. I'm sorry, Aaron, but I want my pennies back and I'm not on your team here. And Aaron, there's some puke seeping out of your nose. Mm-hmm. God.
Starting point is 00:40:50 What are the next three letters in this riddle? How would I know? How would I, no, that's four. That's four letters. What are the next three? What are the next three letters in this riddle? O-T-T-F-S, sorry, O-T-T-F-F-S-S blank blank blank. Man, fuck you.
Starting point is 00:41:12 I'm gonna write this down. Only one TikTok French fry shall stay. Was that what the letters, were those the letters? Nicole, you got one of them correct. Wait, I did? Well, one of the, you got one of them correct. Wait. I did? Well, now I get it. You got something right.
Starting point is 00:41:28 Can you read it again? What are the next three letters in this riddle? Next three letters. So here's what's already in place, and then there's three blanks. Okay. O-T-T-F-F-S-S, and then blank, blank, blank. Is this gonna involve me knowing the fucking alphabet or whatever?
Starting point is 00:41:46 Yeah, I need the absolute like the number like what number is oh. Nicole is blazing hot. Nicole is blazing hot. H I J K L M N O. Was that 10? A B C. And then O P U. So O is 15, Q, A.
Starting point is 00:42:07 So, that's five. O is 15. O is 15. Wait, O is 15? O is 15. I would say transfer this focus onto another sequence. But Nicole has said a few things that are blazing hot. 15. So it's like, cause it's like 10, 15, 20, right?
Starting point is 00:42:28 I think that's what it, or maybe not. It's not that. Are we thinking like Roman numerals or some shit? Like, no, no. Pull back, pull back. Time? It's not time. It's not time.
Starting point is 00:42:40 I think y'all are complicating it more than you need to. Don't tell me what I'm doing, okay? I'll tell you what I'm doing. I'm complicating it more than I need to. And I'll say I'll complicate it more than I need to. The answer, the three-letter answer, is a type of character, a type of creature in Lord of the Rings? Oh, a schmeagel. Is the answer a schmeagel?

Starting point is 00:45:05 No, no, I, sorry. No, what? This was more impressive when I had antlers to help. I saw that you guys were sort of starting a club where you're helping that little one bring a ring, and I thought I could help. No one can ride me, and I have a lot of food allergies. We're super, we're super full up right now

Starting point is 00:46:35 You're not supposed to tell them we're going to cut them and fry them. Well, but I do want them to know that they're going to contribute to... A win's a win. They're used to all of you. Wait, it's cake, it's cake. Oh, she's cake. it's cake. Oh, she's cake. It's cake. Nike J.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Help made it to Mordor. Wow. You know, it's like you think you've seen all the Lord of the Rings and you have, but then you remember you have a terrible attention to it. Yeah. And so you're like, you know who I get confused is Gandalf and the Harry Potter.
Starting point is 00:47:01 Dumbledore. Dumbledore. Dumbledore. Yeah. Same guy though, same actor. Who does the you shall not pass? That's Gandalf, right? That's Gandalf. Okay, I was right. I had the right in my mind.
Starting point is 00:47:09 And Dumbledore is gay, but not in the books, just after. Just after, yes. Just after. So I wanna change my answer from orc to int. So E-N-T. That is correct, but you need to tell me why that's right. No, mind your business. Are these Myers-Briggs types?
Starting point is 00:47:28 That's the guy from American Pie? No. Oh yeah, Myers-Briggs is the guy who puts his dick in a pie. He tells me what my personality is. We'll just tell your mom we ate the pie. I would love to take an online quiz where he's just on the other side being like, I don't know, you're an introvert, I guess.
Starting point is 00:47:40 You take the whole Myers-Briggs test and it just tells you what Jason Biggs movie you should be in. Who's the saving silver man? I guess you take them out whole Myers-Briggs test and it just tells you what Jason Biggs movie you should be in So yeah, so just move on I guess with the next riddle because I'm you're dead right but And it was right. That is right. So Nicole was blazing hot when you said I can't remember what you said. You said one of these something. Okay, so it's OFFTSSENT. OTTFFSSENT. Now, how many in total are there in this pattern?
Starting point is 00:48:16 What? I have to do a different riddle now? OTTFFSSENT, how many is that? Eight. Okay, so these are all types of doctors. An ENT is an ear, nose, and throat doctor. You split an ambulance, I'm your ENT. An OTS is on the side if you work at a restaurant.
Starting point is 00:48:34 FF is fast forward as we all know on a remote. Are we done? I think we're getting there with this. And I think we're done, and I think we're done. And we're done here. I have to know, but I wanna guess, because see, this is why I can't do these kinds of games, because then I will not, I'll be like, no, don't tell me, but tell me. I have to know but I want to guess because this is see this is why I can't do These kinds of games and I will not I'll be like no don't tell me but tell me I don't know if this applies But I have a very strong diner dash
Starting point is 00:48:52 Feeling right now where I just want to dash. I feel like I want to dash I don't want to pay. You keep being like we're done. Yeah, I feel like I want to leave without paying does that make sense? I don't feel like I'll come back in and pay you. What's up? What's the answer? I'll say I'm sorry about my friend. Do you think he doing something? I don't feel like- I'll come back in and tell you what's the answer. I'll say, I'm sorry about my friend. This- Do you think he doing something? It's his last day. Yeah, it's his last day.
Starting point is 00:49:11 It's his last day, so. You know what, he's a make-a-wish kid. His make-a-wish was to dine and dash one time. He doesn't know, but today is it for him. Can I say something about this riddle? This riddle feels how medicine tastes. Does that make sense? This feels uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:49:26 Yeah, Erin, that's a trick question because Flintstone vitamins, in my opinion, in my household is medicine. Tastes like chalk. And those are fucking delicious. No, they don't. They taste like fruity chalk. Fucking delicious.
Starting point is 00:49:37 That's insane. Did you ever have Flintstone vitamins as a kid? You didn't love eating them? Did you have Flintstone vitamins? I remember them being chalky too, but candy I'll stop popping. You know what's good is candy coating all the all the gummy vitamins are real good Where do you get all the is that a break like at Walgreens? Oh, I like little trendy cute brands. Oh, oh, why you can take melatonin tastes like mango
Starting point is 00:50:01 I don't know. I don't think medicine should have any I think yeah And I think this riddle feels like it should be on the SATs or the ACTs or something. It feels like an analogy problem. It'd be a problem. So here's what I'll say. When Nicole said one, that correlates to one of the letters in this sequence.
Starting point is 00:50:21 And I'll say the very first one. The very first one. O is one? Yeah. And the next one are TT. O is one? So it's like, is it like, okay, one, T. Two, two.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Well, you got one of those right? Wait, what? One, two, three. Yep. Four. FF. Four, five, oh, it's the number, oh my God, it's the first letter of the number.
Starting point is 00:50:44 It's the letter of the number. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and's the first letter of the number. It's the letter of the number. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and then ENT is eight, nine, ten. My brain's too slow for this right now. One starts with an O, two starts with a T, three starts with a T, four starts with, and you know, I don't have to say what four starts with. Now I spied Sam.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Thank you. I spied engineer Sam over here, punched a wall. He knew this. Did you know right away? Not right away, but I knew. I still don't understand it. Someone gotta write it down for me. Okay.
Starting point is 00:51:10 Well, Engineer Sam beats us again. I do wanna see a scene. I wanna see a scene. Nicole, you are a teacher in a, we'll say like a second grade classroom. Aaron and JPC, you are a teacher in a, we'll say like a second grade classroom. Aaron and JPC, you are two students who are called upon to say the numbers and you're trying to help each other out because you did not study for this.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Got it, got it, got it. Okay, so we're gonna just go through, we went through yesterday. It should be easy. It shouldn't be a disaster at all like it was yesterday. Okay, so we're talking about numbers, okay? Danielle and Leroy, do you wanna volunteer to come up to the front of the class
Starting point is 00:51:55 and do your numbers for us? It's not volunteering for me. Yes, yes. Yes, Ms. Pickles. Leroy, I watched like eight hours of YouTube last night. I didn't think about this at all. Are, are we supposed to do these in cursive? I can hear both of you and I just say go for it. Okay, um...
Starting point is 00:52:11 You're both doing great already. Yeah, so we're just doing all the numbers? Yeah, all the numbers just... In whatever order we want? Let's do multiples of two to get funky. What? We're in second grade, but I challenged my students. Danielle, why did you ask that?
Starting point is 00:52:24 I don't know. We have to do... Every time you ask a question, I make it harder, so be careful. Okay, okay. We know the first one. A, B, C, D, E, F, 4, 5, 6, and 17. A, B, C, D, E, F, G, 4, 5, 6, and 17. Okay, that's close.
Starting point is 00:52:44 Eighty-one, ninety-six, four. Okay, uh-huh. Thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, four, five, six, and 17. Okay, that's close. 81, 94. Okay. Uh-huh. 32 and 64. Oh, that was good. Now we set our one, two, threes. Next time, please don't call on me. Same.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Wow. That's the most eye contact JPC and I have ever made. Ever, I think. I've known him since what, 2014? I would say. You're like, holy shit. As an outside observer, Mrs. Pickles' teachings were unorthodox, but they had results.
Starting point is 00:53:23 That's right. What results? Insanity? You said things out loud at the end. You sang a lumber song, so I guess Mrs. Pickles' teachings were unorthodox, but they had results. That's right. What results? Insanity? You said things out loud at the end. You sang a lumber song, so I guess Miss Pickles did it. She did it. You won't know math, but you will write a musical. You will.
Starting point is 00:53:33 Write a musical. That's more valuable, honestly, in your life. In this day and age? What, you're gonna be an engineer? No, you're gonna write musicals. Yeah. Whose name do you know better, Lin-Manuel Miranda or? Jonathan Groff.
Starting point is 00:53:42 Math. Wait. Mr. Math, Mr. Math. All right. More middles. Oh, my gosh. I'm so frustrated about this OTTFFS. I'm gonna look it up. A dead man. I'm obsessed, Nicole, with Gandalf
Starting point is 00:53:56 starting sentences with, -"As Gandalf." -"As Gandalf, I must say." -"As Gandalf." -"I have to remind myself sometimes what I'm doing in an improv scene by just being like yeah Yeah My favorite movement in improv scene is to go hey real quick. Who are we and what do we mean to each other? Of course the best initiation in improv scene is fuck you. Where are we yes?
Starting point is 00:54:18 Fuck you. Where are we is so fucking funny? Where are we I so fucking funny. Fuck you, where are we? I was walking, my wife and I were walking on the beach yesterday when we got into town and there was a full beach and I was hearing people's conversations and snippets, which is something that I enjoy picking up on as I walk. And I heard, I think it was a young, it looked like maybe a couple on a blanket together and as we were walking past, the woman said, not too busy to text a bunch of girls. And as I was walking by, I told Mariah, I was like, damn, I wanna find out what else was going on
Starting point is 00:54:54 in that conversation. And she's like, you should go up to her. And I was like, I wanna go up and be like, wait a second, who are you and what do you mean to go to each other? And then what does that mean in this context? Here's the thing. In any other place in the world, I would be like, yes, that is the most salacious, fun conversation over here.
Starting point is 00:55:13 I guarantee you that they were rehearsing lines. Yeah, there's your running lines? I guarantee you they were rehearsing lines for an audition. Yeah, that's probably true. It's funny, the worst. Yeah, right, he sounds like a jerk. He sounds like a cheater. You know, I'm already on her side.
Starting point is 00:55:26 And I told Mariah, I was like, that's my boy. That's my boy How could you do him like that? You should have ran up and be like I did it I grabbed this Play me I took his phone. He's a good guy taking back Teresa Dead man is discovered in a locked office. He's the only person in the room said Aaron you got it A dead man is discovered in a locked office. He's the only person in the room. Sad. Aaron, you got it. It's sad. This is a psychopath test. Man, that's sad.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Can I just say like legitimately, what's so funny that you said that? I was just at home watching signs of a psychopath. So I know all of them. What are they? Oh, I don't know, killing animals or some shit. Okay, you were glued to that TV. Didn't I say earlier, was it on the podcast or before,
Starting point is 00:56:04 that I don't pay attention when I watch things? Oh yes. I think I just said it like 10 minutes. That's confirmation that you are, we're telling the truth when you said that. My brain, it kind of checked out a while ago. There's a lot of science. Killing animals.
Starting point is 00:56:16 Killing the bed. Killing small animals. Obsession with fire. Obsession with violence. Any violence or fire. Disasters. Serial killers. I mean, and what's crazy too is to see how many parents are like,
Starting point is 00:56:26 it was so weird when he killed the cat and put the cat's head on a spit, but then I didn't think he was gonna murder 10 years later. And it's like, what made you think he wasn't gonna do that? I think it's also like referring to your mom as either mother or mommy dearest. Those are big red flags. But not your wife, so Mike Pence is fine.
Starting point is 00:56:41 Mike Pence is fine. Mommy, oh no, what does he call her? Mommy? Mommy, yeah. Yeah, and is it okay that we think Mike Pence is fine? Is that okay for the Pence is fine. Oh, no, what does he call her mommy mommy? Yeah Yeah, and is it okay that we think Mike Pence is fine. Is that okay? No, you're right. Yeah, probably pretty bad Okay, I'll go the other way. I think Trump should have killed Mike Pence Which who wants to love me? You know had the opportunity and missed it with the fly that flew into his head. I'll never forget it
Starting point is 00:57:05 The fly that hit Mike Pence's head I remember going on Twitter right after it and there was like four different accounts that were like Mike Pence fly fly Mike Pence Pence fly head. I was like, what are we doing here? I'm trying to feel something Anything right there's a scene in Indiana Jones in the Last Crusade. Is that the third one? There's a guy and it's the one with Sean Connery. Yeah, yeah, The Last Crusade, that's it. There's a scene where it's like a guy, it's maybe the main villain,
Starting point is 00:57:32 where he's like tracking Indiana Jones and he finds him in Petra or something, and as he's talking, a fly lands on his face and crawls into his mouth, disappears, and the actor kept going, like didn't flinch or anything, and it's one of the wildest little, it's not an outtake because they kept it in, but it's like, how impressive that this guy...
Starting point is 00:57:50 No, not impressive. With the fly crawling on his face and going into his mouth and down his throat, this guy stayed in character. Was he supposed to be evil? He was supposed to be, well, he was like in character. Here's what I think happened. That guy had like three strikes already on set.
Starting point is 00:58:06 And his job was dangling. Did you cough one more time? He felt a fly in his mouth and he goes, I cannot get fired. I cannot get fired again. I'll eat a fly. I'll eat a fly to keep my job. I would eat a fly to get a job right now. I get it.
Starting point is 00:58:21 I would eat a lot of flies. There was a lady who swallowed a fly. I don't know why. Well, actually, it was for succession. She got a gig out of it. I would eat a lot of flies. There was a lady who swallowed a fly. I don't know why. Well, actually it was for. She got a gig out of it. She did get a writing job out of it. It's for Gilmore Girls. Yeah, she ate a fly, but the show went three seasons.
Starting point is 00:58:34 It's like a correlation. A dead man is discovered in a locked office. He is the only person in the room. He did not commit suicide. There are no weapons in the room. Oh, so he'll go to heaven. So what are we talking about here? The only clue is a sealed envelope
Starting point is 00:58:52 on the desk in front of him. How did he die? He cut his little finger on the envelope. Yes, he cut his little finger on the envelope. That is the answer. Like the nursery rhyme. When you said sealed envelope. Wait, nothing rhymes with envelope. The only thing I had in my head was kiss from the roofs.
Starting point is 00:59:08 And I was like, yeah, it's a sealed envelope. And I was like, what am I doing here? This is not gonna be helpful. Was that poison that you sent in the mail? I know, yeah, that's what it is. He licked the envelope, had poison on it when he licked it. Oh, like Costanza's fiance. Anthrax.
Starting point is 00:59:20 Costanza's fiance, is that Seinfeld? Did it get dark? Anthrax is a great guess, but Nicole, bingo bingo, hot to top, Nicole got it. The seal of the envelope was laced with poison and when the man licked the seal, he was poisoned and died. Wasn't there a thing on Seinfeld where George was cheap and he bought the wrong envelopes and his fiance was licking them?
Starting point is 00:59:36 The wedding invitations, yeah, yeah, okay. Oh yeah, that would be a big one. Now you just do an online invitation, you don't waste paper. I thought, yeah, you don't waste paper. I thought, Ad would be a big one. Yeah. Now you just do an online invitation, you don't waste paper. I thought, yeah, you don't waste paper. Koka stanza to get over it. I thought, Adel, when you were reading this riddle,
Starting point is 00:59:50 that the answer was gonna be, cause you were like, a man was found alone in an office and it was locked or whatever. I was like, well, who found him? If he was truly alone, the killer must have found him. But it wasn't that so hardly worth mentioning even. Well no, you were thinking of a more advanced riddle, I think.
Starting point is 01:00:06 Because honestly, since I guess that is a pretty basic riddle. OK, I'm just going to be real with y'all. I guess the easy one. I think it was impressive. I want to see a scene. OK, Adel, you're going to be like a famous detective. And you have been brought into a crime scene. And everyone expects you to do like a Sherlock Holmes thing
Starting point is 01:00:22 and like tell them the answer. And you two are like the bumbling like, you know, officers who are already at the crime scene, but like nothing that he's saying actually pans out to how the crime was committed. Can I just say it's an absolute honor to meet you, sir. We're part of your fan club. Oh, sir, we're such big fans of yours.
Starting point is 01:00:39 We studied your whole career. We love you. We love your books. I appreciate that. It's always nice to meet a fan of Dick Suspicious. Now, I think I see what happened here. Yeah, tell us, tell us, tell us. He's always wanted to see this in person. I've heard he's amazing, he just solves crimes immediately.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Clearly this man on the ground before me, naked and nude, which are different, which are different. I know, we saw your scandal in the paper, we know. We know, we know. With a sock and without, I get it. I was naked at Applebee's, there's a difference. You were drunk and naked at Applebee's, sir. Naked is when your clothes get caught in the door
Starting point is 01:01:13 on the way in and they rip off. Nude is when you're doing it on purpose, like a nude beach, right? They don't call it a naked beach, they call it a nude beach. You were naked, sad, and drunk at Apple were naked sad and drunk also doesn't help that my name is dick suspicious and they really ran with that when they did the headlines they said that was the best day ever at the paper sir best day
Starting point is 01:01:35 they ever had in the papers eating nude in the neighborhood they didn't even use dick it was two-for-one one, you were wearing strip away clothing. Well they sent me some alternate, yes, and he can't live. That's what happens. He knew it in the neighborhood. Okay, he solved his mystery. They sent me some alternate titles and they involved Dick. Right. The man in front of us is clearly a clown
Starting point is 01:01:56 because what happened was he blew up a balloon. He was making a balloon animal, possibly for a child to pass her by. As he made the balloon animal, the balloon popped. The balloon went into his mouth, down into his esophagus. The man started to choke. As he started to choke, he ran into a taxi cab. Started the meter, the taxi drove across town.
Starting point is 01:02:21 The car flipped as it hit an oil patch, right? As the car flipped, the man started to sing an opera song, being a baritone. The opera song attracted a audience of people who were clapping and applauding and throwing roses, which is where the marks on his neck come from, thorns. Oh, uh-huh. This is a mailman with an arrow in his chest.
Starting point is 01:02:44 Yeah, I thought it was the arrow, too. I thought it was the arrow that killed him. Yeah. But listen, we don't know. We don't know. What do we know? Fuck you, where are we? Ha ha ha.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Same. Same. Ah! Oh. Hoisted on your own Picard. Mm-hmm. Oh. Make it so.
Starting point is 01:03:01 You're brilliant. JPC's not so bad after all, I've decided. Thank you, Erin. Wow, was it from the eye contact? Fuck you. Okay. Where are we? Okay, back on the list.
Starting point is 01:03:11 Here's my impression of Patrick Stewart as a magician. Picard, any card. Wow. Oh, fun. If I get too hot, I simply freeze. What am I? Oil. If you get too hot.
Starting point is 01:03:24 No. No, because quarts are hot. If you get too hot. No. No, because quarts are hot. If you get too hot, you simply freeze. I mean, that's me. Like, if you see somebody that's really hot, and you're like, oh my God, I'm so horny for them, I freeze. Yeah, right?
Starting point is 01:03:34 Like, you get toe-high. So could you just say like a socially awkward lady? Mm-hmm. That works for sure. A woman meeting Channing Tatum, I presume. Oh yeah. I don't know who the hot. He's so hot.
Starting point is 01:03:44 I don't know who the hot guy is. I don't wanna get into too much of anything, but it could also be a man meeting Channing Tatum, I presume. Oh yeah. I don't know who the hot guy is. I don't wanna get into too much of anything, but it could also be a man meeting Channing Tatum. Not necessarily. Be a little bit more open. From She's the Man? Don't mind if I do. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:53 Channing Tatum's in a movie called She's the Man? She's, come on. Is that Amanda Bynes? Amanda Bynes. Of course, have you seen that movie? I know of it. It's early, it's like early Tatum. It's like, I think one of his first rules.
Starting point is 01:04:03 His breakout role. Oh wait, he's in that? Yes. He's the love interest in that. He's the love interest. He's a love interest his role is a breakout role Oh my god, at all. You have not seen she's the man. We have to do it for review She does the craziest voice in the history of cinema. The whole premise is that she it's it's a taming of the truth I 12 12th night 12th night, right? Yeah 12th night. It's a it's it's one of the those They have the woman masquerading as a man. Yes, whatever that is.
Starting point is 01:04:27 But it's like a Shakespeare in modern times. Like a 10 Things I Hate About You. Yeah, 10 Things I Hate About You is the other example. That was Taming of the Shrew. Yes. Yes, exactly. Or She's All Richard the Third. She's All Richard the Third.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Amanda Bynes has a brother in this movie that looks kind of nothing like her, and she pretends to be him by just being Amanda Bynes wearing makeup. And everyone is just like, yeah, that's the brother. And it's true. And no one ever addresses the fact that she just looks like Amanda Bynes wearing like a fake mustache.
Starting point is 01:04:54 But- That'll doing the craziest voice in the history of cinema. We have to do it. Can I hear an impression of it? No, I'll save it for the pot. Yeah. Nicole, have you seen this movie?
Starting point is 01:05:02 I don't think I've seen the movie, but I have so many friends that talk about it. Really? But even if Nicole had seen the movie, canonically now, I'm telling you. We wouldn't remember the movie. Exactly, we know now.
Starting point is 01:05:13 The details would not be there. It's so true that it's almost scary. Mm-hmm. You'd be like, did you see it? And I'd be like, yes. And you'd be like, what was your favorite part? And I'd be like, I could not tell you. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:05:23 I, my wife, I play like video games sometimes while my wife watches like something. And a lot of times she will say like, you didn't watch that movie. And I'm like, they didn't do a good enough job making a movie that I would want to watch. Like it was, two people are at fault here. I mean, like this is, this is a failing
Starting point is 01:05:40 on a systemic level, I would say. For me, it's like me, the movie, and Steve Jobs, because I'm just looking at my phone. Three of us are responding. Yeah. And my mom forgiving me ADHD. Yeah. Mostly the ADHD.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Mostly that. I'll watch five seasons of something with my wife, and we'll talk about it. The series finale will end, and I'll be like, that part where the, what's the lead character? And she's like, Karen? I'm like, we're Karen. And she's like, you don't remember the lead character?

Starting point is 01:10:11 Oh, yeah. He's like... I saw Sam pull out his phone and order a Quiznos. Yeah, I saw 100%. He got a hankering. Do you guys remember those commercials? You heard me saying it. We love the subs! I do think all the Quiznos are gone, though. So Sam may have been ordering it from the subs! Oh my god. I do think all the quizzes are gone though.
Starting point is 01:10:25 So Sam may have been ordering it from the past. Firehouse subs. What is a firehouse sub? Firehouse is good. What does that mean? It's like the firemen would make it. I think that's their whole theme. Erin is trying to end the episode.
