Starting point is 00:00:00 Give a little time for the child within you. Don't be afraid to be young and free. Under the locks and throw away the keys and take off your shoes and sucks and run you. It's Jordan Jesse Go. I am Jesse Thorne, America's Radio, sweetheart. Jordan Morris, here with some hot new IP news. Oh, great. Okay. Jordan, I have been waiting for us to get into the IP game.
Starting point is 00:00:24 I mean, I love this stuff. I don't know about you, Jesse, but I love IP. You've always IPed for you. Yes. I mean, from my days of making prank calls to Mo. I quit. No, man, come on. You're doing great. No need to quit. No, it's fine. You can take it. You can take it back. It's just saying things. Yeah, it's just saying things. Whatever. You were saying something. You'll say a few more things. It'll be over in about 80 minutes. That's what counts as a podcast.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Some hot new IP news. Just. Have you seen some of these dumb fucks that have podcasts? This could be a podcast. Why not? Sure. Yeah. I mean, listen, are we recapping Boy Meets World? No. Should we be? Yes. Yes. Yes. People like that.
Starting point is 00:01:04 So, okay. As you know, I've talked often about on this show, I've been kind of, I've been working the cons. Yeah. And if folks, if folks. Don't neglect the cons. That's what I say. If folks, see, whatever.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Yeah. If folks don't know what cons are. Right. You as a comic book writer will go to cons. You'll sit at a table. And then it's certain times. Parents bring their children to you, make you encourage them to go into comic books, then leave without buying anything. Yeah, that happens a lot.
Starting point is 00:01:36 That's a kind of, that's a kind of person I meet a lot. Inspire my kid, dad, I call this person. Cons are also kind of like, it's a short for convention. Short for convention. And it's a convention of people who have comic book ideas about Superman to tell you while you sit at your table. This is the genre of man that I'd like to talk about today. Great. Uh, I'll just to recap, yeah, well, a man who has ideas about a Superman like comic.
Starting point is 00:02:03 So this is someone you'll meet a lot of these things. It's a guy he'll come up to you. He's got a long, great ponytail. Maybe he's dressed as Indiana Jones. Maybe he just dresses like that, hard to say. Could be either one. And this man has no interests in the comic books you're selling, but he would like to tell you his idea for a comic book.
Starting point is 00:02:23 Right. And I would say six times. out of 10, that idea is, what if Superman was bad? Right. Well, because it's sort of a twist on the classic tail. Because usually he's so good. Right. So usually Superman is a...
Starting point is 00:02:35 Did you know this, Stephen, about Superman? Honestly, no idea. Yeah, so he's a good guy, but a lot of times it would be interesting to kind of get a twist on the classic tale. So somebody would pick up the comic book and look like, Superman is doing, whoa, whoa, what? And then they would flip their shit. They'd probably flip their shit. They'd probably flip their shit.
Starting point is 00:02:52 So I get this idea a lot. and you know you try and try and be positive try and be encouraging um and but you know it's it's repetitive it genuinely happens a lot but i got someone who came up to me the other day at galaxy con in new orleans um nalins and yeah um and yeah if you're wondering ben yeah done that okay as covered that yeah as as they say on many signs in new islands yeah done that and and you know I was kind of prepared for this exchange to go the way I thought it was going to go. But somebody came up to you and pitched you. And really blew my mind, really blew my mind.
Starting point is 00:03:31 What if Aaron Neville was bad? So this, this is the idea. Uh-huh. Picture this. Uh-huh. What if Superman was a little taller like six five? So, think about, because I don't know how to see now. I don't know canonically.
Starting point is 00:03:54 Canotically, how tall is this guy? I googled David Corrin Sweat, the guy who's the new Superman. He's like 6.3. So this guy would be two inches taller than the guy we have now. How tall is super? I'm just going to, I'm going to just leave it. So in the comic books, Superman is typically depicted as being 6 feet 3 inches tall. So I'm in the 6364 zone.
Starting point is 00:04:17 I was going to ask, you know, you, Jesse, would this book as a taller guy, speak to you because maybe you can kind of see yourself in that book, you know, the challenges of being tall, like it being kind of hard to fit in a coach seat on a plane. So it would be, I mean, I think one of the big things that Superman would be dealing with is anytime he goes in a basement wearing a hat with a brim, he's going to clip the top of his head on one of the beams across the roof of the basement. So there you go. And it hurts fucking bad. I'm not, because it's not catching you flush in the forehead. Right. The edge is clipping the top of your head.
Starting point is 00:04:53 So that's a six-issue arc right there. Or that's a summer event. That's a crossover event with tall Batman. Do you think that's something Mr. Mitzopitilic would get involved in with his magic typewriter? Maybe, maybe. Also, I did, that's not the only thing about this idea. I did get a little bit more information.
Starting point is 00:05:12 And he got his powers for being sealed in a barrel. Okay. Like a whiskey? I don't know. Yeah. He's barrel-aged. He has a lot oakier notes. He's barrel-aged when he got out.
Starting point is 00:05:26 He's 6-5 and he's got okey notes now. Anyway, so keep an eye out for slightly taller Superman coming soon to a comic book stand and then probably movie theater here you. Jordan, did you know that we have a slightly taller Superman in our midst? Oh, my God. Right now. Fuck. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:43 He is a star of film, a star of television. Yep. A star of Internet. Yes. And now a singer of children's song. Ah, damn. A regular pied piper of Silver Lake. His brand new record with Go Banana Go is called Slippery when Peeled.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Flula, how are you? Hello, Jordan, hello, Jesse. How are you guys? We're doing good, thank you. Do you have a Superman audition coming up because the guns are out in our studio? Yeah. This is a very tight shirt. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:06:18 It is. That is the only reason you have made this commentary. I was wearing a very thick turtleneck, we would just be speaking about another a Marvel or D.C. comic book here, like, Swamp Thing. Yeah. We would probably just be talking Swamp Thing. It is a little swampy in here. I agree.
Starting point is 00:06:32 It's a little warm and therefore swampy. Yes. Yes. Swampy thing. So I would say, speaking of your tight shirt, I would say that you were kind enough to come to our recording in what I would call a Flula Borg costume. Yes. This is how I dress when I leave any region that also requires covering nipples and
Starting point is 00:06:51 and Tatas. I see a t-shirt that depicts a colorful sweater. Yes. I was trying to order this actual sweater from Sam Borski on Instagram. He doesn't sell those. He only sells t-shirts that look like the shirts. He has knitted. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:07 Also smart in this nice sweltery swampy thing. Yeah, yeah. Probably better in this situation to have the t-shirt and not the sweater. Yes, yes, yes. You've done a comic con or two, right? Yes, I've done some of those. I've never met the man with the tape. of ponies who then like slightly taller than average heroes.
Starting point is 00:07:25 But yes, I have attended. And that is also a swampy location. Yeah, no kidding. Yeah, very stanky. Yeah, sure. The one in New Orleans was maybe the swampiest event I had ever attended. I don't. I hadn't put those pieces together.
Starting point is 00:07:37 Yeah. I've been to San Diego Comic-Con before. Yes. And obviously, there was a lot of fun to be had. We're hanging out with Cristella Alonso. How could it not be fun? A good time. But it does smell bad.
Starting point is 00:07:49 And I know that's on the nose. Yeah. get it, but yeah, it literally smells bad. Sure. Yes. But San Diego has a very mild climate relative to New Orleans, or as I call it, Nalins. Nollins? Have you been in there?
Starting point is 00:08:04 Okay, great. Oh, the delicious dessert. It's a really good dessert. Yes, with the powdered sugar. Yeah, you know, we're talking about, that's the one. That's the one. That's a little bit about the Nalens lifestyle. You know it.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Ben, Ben, yeah, Ben, and Franklin. You got it. Nailed it in one. You're an all-American guy over here. Oh, yes. Start some fires with that delicious pastry. That's what we say. I'd say that.
Starting point is 00:08:32 From sea to shining sea. Also, as part of the fit today, is this a corduroy fanny pack. It's a corduroy fanny pack. I've removed it because it's so warm here. And I've not just pulled my gum out of my mouth. I'm going to place it on the clip of the gum. of this because I didn't bring a napkin. Is that okay for everyone?
Starting point is 00:08:53 That's going to be great. I think that's cool. Okay, cool. Do you mind if we auction that for charity? Oh, please do it. Okay, great. The flula freaks out there are going to be bidden up a storm for this gum. What do you, what do you, if this isn't too personal, what do you keep in the pack?
Starting point is 00:09:08 The pack contains keys, wallet, dreams, hopes, a little bit of mascara and, of course, a snack. Yeah, sure. What are we talking about? Gushers? Oh, wow. I wish. I would love some usher gushers. Did you ever have those in the 90s?
Starting point is 00:09:22 In the 90s? Oh. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. No, usually it is a candy. I had no idea, or at least I wasn't willing to confessions that I knew. Yeah. Yeah, no, don't keep that joke in the closet.
Starting point is 00:09:35 There you go. That's all Kelly. That's our Kelly. Oh, gosh. Oh, gosh. Oh, gosh. Oh, God. Snacks.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Candy bars, bars of candy, what you call it? Uh-huh. Sure. What are your top five snacks? Because you don't get guns like that. If you're just going around eating what you'll call it. So what kind of snacks are you looking at? Are we talking to this about just six almonds?
Starting point is 00:09:56 Once per week, I do enjoy something that I like that is not on the list of things that you are not allowed to eat. I think that was a triple negative. I like greasy peanut butter copies. Yep. I like a yorky pepperminty. Yes, of course. I like a watchma call it, as I said just some seconds ago. Is that available in a store in 2025 or whatchamacallet?
Starting point is 00:10:14 It's been some years since I've consumed one. Okay. So maybe no. I think so. I think I've seen a watchamacollet recently. I think that's one of those under the radar has, will always be their candies. But you can't get a caramel al, probably. No, I bet a caramel is harder to get.
Starting point is 00:10:28 You stretch it out. You stretch it out, out, out, out. It's a, it's a, it's a candy bar that's in little segments. It's just a very creamy, smooth, liquidy caramel inside. Yes. And the commercial when we were kids said you had to stretch it out, out, out. Yeah. Oh, three outs.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Three outs. Stephen, would you, would you price a Whatchamacalla and a caramel? Sure, yeah. We're the nearest place because I think my, my prediction is that we could probably just go down the street and get a Whatchamacollet. Caramello, probably a little bit harder to find. Are you thinking that if he goes to Whatchamacallet.com and Caramello. That there's going to be a store locator there?
Starting point is 00:11:07 Maybe. That's a GPS aware? Is that what you're suggesting? Is it like, if you just do Google shopping, won't it just tell you where you can get one? I don't know if that works for just a 95 cent candy bar. I mean, to be fair, if you, I just Google. what you're going to call it. And at candy funhouse.com, you can get a 45 gram bar for 189. But Walgreens, it's 199. Oh, okay. My mother just sent to my house. My mother just
Starting point is 00:11:31 went home to the East Bay, to Northern California. But she was visiting for the weekend. And I think to curry favor with my children, my mom will do this thing where she sends packages to my house from somewhere that she bought them from. directly. So she'll just put in our address. But she won't put in like a gift note or any further information or call and tell us or text us or email us. It is, it will just appear at our home without explanation. And we received, right before my mom came, we received a box of retro candy and a box of party size nacho cheese Doritos. Like I'm talking about like, you know, the size I'm talking about, right?
Starting point is 00:12:22 Like the kind that you would get at a children's party or something, 150 calories or so. Yeah. Like 60 of those in a cardboard box. Loose. Loose just appeared at our house. What would you do if that happened to you? And then what would you do if you found out that it was your mother who had done that to you? Well, I mean, I would just put them, put them up somewhere.
Starting point is 00:12:47 I mean, always good to have, just something to grab and go. Gail would, a Gail would never, obviously. Gail would, my mom, Gail. Yes, of course. Oh, of course. I think Gail would, like, bring some. My mom's name is Judith. Of course, yeah, Judith.
Starting point is 00:13:01 What's your mom's name? Oh, Gobi. Gobi. Gobi. These are three great mom name. Yes, yes. Steven, Mom. Ramona.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Romona. Oh, wow. Not to flex, but... Wow. Weird flex, but okay. Guys, let's launch a new golden girls. Oh, Ramona Gail. Gavi and Judy.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Shopping it up. Yes. Being salty. Yeah, one of them has to be the mother of the other three somehow or one of them. Yes. So, yeah, please continue. You have 60 bags of chips. Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:31 There's a lot of chips. Jesse, you were telling a story about having a lot of chips. We got 60 bags of chips at the house, and then we just got a whole... Box of novelty candy. Yeah. I mean, like, I'm talking about Charleston Chew's. Oh, wax lips? We got both bubblegum cigarettes and candy cigarettes.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Root beer barrels, those dots on a strip of paper, those dots of candy on a strip of paper. My mom, my mom did once get arrested for bank robbing in a car that had like 240 hits of acid in it. Judith? Yeah, but she had not robbed the bank, so don't worry about that. And they couldn't keep her in jail for the acid because it was unreasonable search and seizure. This is true. Yeah. This is going to be great for the sitcom, by the way.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Wow. Judy's past will come up. Yeah, episode three. Episode three, this is going to be great. Gail is a retired lactation nurse. This is also true. Also true, yeah. Retired.
Starting point is 00:14:29 So that's going to be fun. You can have some boo humor. What is Gabby? Gabi taught languages. Oh. Oh, this is great. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait, we add to Carmelo really quick.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Carmelo is also $199 at Walgreens, so the same price. Well, fuck. Well, fuck me. Find out what candy you can't get it while. Yes. And that's what we want now. Look up big hunk. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:54 This is a one? Big hunk? Big hunk. You know what happens when you look up big hunk? You get a picture of flu. Hey. Shah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Yeah. Look at this guy. My mom will not bring over loose chips, but she'll bring over like a desk organ. And I always like, you know, I like having them and sometimes I don't use them immediately, but I put them aside and just I need something. I'm like, ah, Gail brought one over. I can picture your mother, Gail, bringing over a dish of something nice that she made, like a macaroni and cheese or a banana pudding.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Yeah, banana pudding closer probably. Okay. Did Gobi have a move? Cheesecake always. Oh, really? So in case a cool. That's a nice cake. As you know, English is my, who knows language.
Starting point is 00:15:38 What is the phrase loose chips sink dips? Yeah, that's correct. Yes, they said that to people in the army. They did, okay. Yeah, in the Second World War. Oh, I thought it was from the movie of glory. No, please, listen, I'd never forget. That's also what they say.
Starting point is 00:15:54 We all say that. Do we? Yeah, okay, sure. This is what podcasts are. This is what we're doing currently. Yeah. Oh, like the skeleton of pitch perfect two. This is what this is, basically.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Yes, the framing device of Pitch Perfect 2, where they're doing a podcast about Acapella Groups. Okay, great. We were saying it off, Mike. You're great in that movie. Thanks. We have to move on. Yeah, you're right.

Starting point is 00:16:34 And I just want to know. Yeah. Can we talk to the Great Gazoo? Is the Great Gazoo here? I don't think he's here today. He might not be here. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Is he out it's Sunday? It's a rheumatoid arthritis day. It's Sunday. I don't know he's observing. Right. Yeah, yeah. He died, actually. Oh, no.

Starting point is 00:16:59 Charlestown chew poisoning. Yeah. Yeah. You know, it happens. It happens in the magical elf community more than, more than you'd like to know. Oh, is that so? Yeah. Common.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Common. I heard a lot about their problems with Biddo honey. Right. But it's, you know, there was some Biddle honey in there. You want to know what I love? Fucking Biddo honey. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it tastes like, but I love that shit.
Starting point is 00:17:24 It's very chewy, correct? It's extremely chewy and it maybe tastes like peanuts? Mm-hmm. But I couldn't tell you for sure. it has a bumblebee on it, it would definitely take out your fillings if you have fillings that you're worried about being taken out. That's how you remove them, yes.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Yeah, that is very serious. Flula, with your new album of children's music, will you be performing four children? Yes, so we're planning to have some concerts, one in that place called Austin City Limits, which is within the city limits of Austin. Is this concert going to appear on the public television program of the same name? Possibly.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I love this. I actually do not know. I was just told this will happen, and then I attend. Much like this podcast, someone just gives me an address, a mode of transportation, and then I'm here. And then you just try and hide your disappointment. Yes. You snap on the fanny pack and ready to go. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:17 So, and the audience will be some adults, but I'm sure they will have kids with them. I'm assuming those adults will have had children come out of their holes and then we'll bring those children. Yeah, the childhoods. And then we'll bring those two-hour show to be regaled by me and then the other go-banan-a-go members. Brian Wecht and Jim Roach. People have different kinds of holes. Jordan, I have children, so obviously, do you have any kids? Do you have a son or?
Starting point is 00:18:42 This is a recurring bit on the show. Oh, got it. I know. I got to get a son. I'm working on it. Oh, good luck. He's working. Flula, don't worry, he's working on it.
Starting point is 00:18:50 I have kids myself. There's different kinds of holes, right? So food hole. Oh, food hole, yes. Sound hole. A kid hole. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cocaine hole.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Oh, just one. That's a good point. They're all, to some extent, cocaine holes, especially if you stick cocaine where, listen, I don't know about kids, but I do know about cocaine and where you can stick it. Especially when you've got to fill 90 minutes for a children's concert. Sure. Then you snort it. Then you find new holes for the cocaine. Children are not your audience of this show, correct?
Starting point is 00:19:19 No, no, yes. You can say, you can say swears and stuff. But a lot of people on our program, a lot of people who listen to our program have procreated. Yeah. Oh, congratulations to your audience for having intercourse, probably. Some are in cells Sure Well, yeah
Starting point is 00:19:36 Some Some Some but many have fucked Many have fucked Many have fucked Many have fucked Let us know if you fucked Have you fucked?
Starting point is 00:19:45 Yeah have you fucked To completion Have you fucked to completion? Is that a real number You guys have a number A hotline? Yeah, we have a hotline Oh yeah wow amazing

Starting point is 00:20:02 That's the only thing. Whatever's hottest. What's going down on Capitol Hill, we want to know. Uh-huh. Have you worked out your children's performance yet? Are you doing anything to captivate kids specifically? No, I generally have a very confusing energy and lots of enthusiasm, and I hope that this is enough, much like someone who doesn't know what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:20:21 So have you never done it? You've never performed for a kid's audience of kids before. No, not strictly children. I've performed for empty rooms, rooms of one. to two, but most of those people were adults. Yeah. Are you worried about it? No. Okay. No. What's the
Starting point is 00:20:40 worst? Oh, I guess a lot could have. That's right in your head. Yeah, yeah. No. Before you're like, no, what could go wrong? Everything could go wrong. No, it's just a fun time. Do you guys perform? Have you performed other than your podcast like it? You guys? Yes, please tell me. Yeah, so we've done the podcast live. Okay. For children? I know this. No, we should do a show for kids?
Starting point is 00:20:58 Should we? Yes. I don't think they'd like us. I mean, you have curly hair. That's true. Why not Teen Titans Go, Jordan Jesse, go? I mean, that's a really low. Thank you. Have you brought up, by the way, with your bosses at Teen Titans Go that they stole the name of our show? I have.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Me getting to work on the show is kind of a settlement. Okay. So it's a settlement where I get something and you don't. Okay. Yeah. All right. Fair enough. Yeah, we've performed in a variety of contexts, each of us, but I don't think we
Starting point is 00:21:31 have ever done, well, you, did you do, like, didn't you tour middle schools doing Shakespeare or something when we were in college? I did, I did a program in college called Shakespeare to Go. Oh, wow, lots of goals in your life. You know what? I hadn't thought of it that way. Yeah. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:23:10 Yes. We would get in like a university vehicle, kind of a classic white van. Oh. And we would go to, we go to elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, and do a wee little 45-minute version of the Mary Wives of Windsor for kids who sometimes enjoyed it. Okay. I really like that. I really like that's a very happy memory of mine. I did not do any Shakespeare after that. But, you know, maybe there's another life where I was touring, touring the, where do you see Shakespeare, the parks of the world. Shakespeare is in the park. Performing, performing the soliloquies. Jordan, do you want to know where I see Shakespeare? I do not. I do not see it. Don't see it. No reason to see it. No, too boring. Too boring. And long. Yeah, very good and important in its time.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Learn about it. Yeah, learn about it. Then move on to The Wire. Oh, yes. And of course, killer instinct. Yes. Pitch Perfect, too. These are all great things to consume.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Have you ever done any, like, theater, anything that you would consider a legitimate theater? Yes, I once played a man called the crying man and play called the crying man. And every time I came on stage. Yes, the titty roll, and then I would just go and cry every time. Wow, that's really nice. would remark about my crying. What would their remarks be? Just he must be sad.
Starting point is 00:24:32 He's so sad. Has someone broken up with him? He looks sad, sad, sad. And then it just, I'm like Les Chifre from Casino Royale. It's just an eyeduct problem. And so that's the reason. And then you hit James Bond in the balls. Very hard.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Yes, yes, yes. Yes. And then those games. You got it. Hit him in the ball. Over and over again. Yeah. I cut that hole out of the middle of the seat.

Starting point is 00:30:07 Yeah. If you're in the San Francisco Bay Area, you should already be a huge fucking Brian Possein fan. Not just because he's the world's greatest metal comedian. Not just because he was on fucking Mr. Show.
Starting point is 00:30:21 Not just because he was on There was a 10-year period where he was on every sitcom on network television. Oh, yeah. But because that guy's from the San Francisco Bay Area.

Hi, it's me, Flewlerborg, on this show, Jordan Jessica. How are you guys?
Starting point is 00:31:14 We're well. How about you, Flo La? Oh, yeah. Oh, the ding-dong. Oh, sure. Yeah, yeah. Named after the great James Bond. Yes, the ding-dong himself, Mr. Ding-Dong Bang-Bang as they call him in the Netherlands. Yes, that's his name. All throughout the Netherlands.
Starting point is 00:31:32 All throughout the Netherlands. What's a good candy treat from Germany, Flula? So, marzipan is my favorite, Marzipan. By lebechouchen are also very good, which is like, you know, lebekuhn? Wait, you just straight marzipan? Yeah, man. Not even in a crazy shape or something, just to borrow it? You need a crazy shape for it's delicious.
Starting point is 00:31:51 It's the most disgusting thing in the world. Marsupan is so gross. Do you know what it is? You know what else is bad? Well, yes. Turkish delights. Not, yes, not very good. Do you like almonds?
Starting point is 00:32:05 I mean, I don't mind eating an almond as a snack, Barack Obama style. Oh, the eight per day in your blue or gray suit, yes. But I don't want, I don't know. Still mad about the gray suit over here. I don't want like sugar and almond blue. liqueur or whatever marzipan is made up. It's almonds and sugar.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Crushed almonds and sugar. Oh, it's so gross. And you, how will, ideally, how are you eating this? Like, by the handful. In the shape of the Golden Gate Bridge. Well, sometimes, yes. And it's size. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:35 No, I like to make a little cookie. It's an almond-based cookie that is crunchy. And then I put a little bit of, uh, himber mamalade, a raspberry jam. And then we put a little piece of matzipan on it. Okay. So it's like a little or you don't, you hate those. That sounds good. It's delicious.
Starting point is 00:32:49 I'm kind of with you, Flulam. No, I'm out on this. I really want that. Stephen get that from Walgreens. Buy it now. Marci Pantala. I thought you were just going to say, well, well, Winkerthaler bars. And then you would tell us about what was in a vinkertaller bar and it's the funny commercial
Starting point is 00:33:03 from your childhood. What is a vinkertaller bar? I'm just saying some German stuff. So, so a Ritter Sport. There you go. Oh, okay. But on Fatsamint. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:13 We also had after eight, which I think is maybe international. Did you have these? After eight? Yeah, I think we had after eight. I think this is totally new to me. I think after eight is one of those things like a vionetta where it has a sensual commercial with like a woman with lace gloves. Yes, yes, like crecoupon. They are like vinyl albums.
Starting point is 00:33:32 You pull them out of a little sliver of a, you know, like a little pocket. And then that thing is chocolate. It's a square. And inside is a goo of like after eight. It's like a minty goo. I want one. You do. It's like the kind of chocolate mint they would give you after dinner at a fancy restaurant that actually.
Starting point is 00:33:50 is not a fancy restaurant. Correct. A restaurant that you think is fancy because you're a child. Actually, it's a restaurant that your parents take you to because it's the only one nearby that will allow children to come. Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut. Yes.
Starting point is 00:34:04 German Pizza Hut. Yeah. It's not a German. I think after eight is international, but we had many commercials of the censored, sensory, whatever. And it's the idea were you as a kid, like, attracted to the after eight lady? Is that? No, fully asexual reasons. I just really enjoyed shoving that chocolate into my mouth.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Okay. Got it. That makes sense. I'm not sexual about that. Nothing at all. I mean, thorns me up pretty good. Well, that's your deal, man. Everybody should be proud of their deal.
Starting point is 00:34:35 You're right. You should. My deal is if they're shoving chocolate in their mouth, I'm horned up. Okay. I like it. I pay good money on Only fans for that shit, Jordan. I'm sure they call it Augustus Gloopin. Thank you again for subscribing, by the way.
Starting point is 00:34:49 You're welcome, Flula. Hit up Flula. We've got the kid's album. We got the OF. The OF. At Flula. At Flula. Flula, you are the most physically powerful guest we've ever had on Jordan, Jessica. I would say.
Starting point is 00:35:01 It's the T-shirt. Once again, it's the T-shirt. So you mentioned during the break, you became yoked during the filming of the film Suicide Squad. To be clear, it's the Suicide Squad. It's a small distinction, but it is a different film, yes. Okay. Thank you. Very, very delightful film, starring our friend Steve Age.
Starting point is 00:35:19 He's the primary star of the film. Of course. And Starro. And Starrow. Steve Pagey, Fleurga, and Starrow. That's a three-hander. The original three-buscateeers. Is Staro that giant monster it?
Starting point is 00:35:33 It's the star! Yeah, I love that shit. But it was great. I really enjoyed that movie. I did too. Anyway, you got yoked for that to be a superhero. Yes, correct. But that was six years ago now.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Yes, yes. Pre-pandemic. You've remained yoked. Yes, I need structure in my life. Ding-dong, I'm a German. So I need some things to have happening several times a week that I know will happen. And so in my case, it is lifting weights up and down, left and right. In the absence of train spotting and, like, the maintenance of railroad schedules.
Starting point is 00:36:05 Correct. I've skipped heroin. I'm not diving into that toilet. I'm just doing bench presses. Yeah. Yeah. Do you have a favorite exercise? Oh, you mean like in the gymnasium?
Starting point is 00:36:17 Yeah. I enjoy, I will say it. I like a little band. A little bench press. A little bench press. A little dump a lunch. Mm-hmm. Now, Flula, when you say gymnasium, I immediately picture someone throwing a medicine ball or possibly climbing
Starting point is 00:36:32 a rope. Yes. I'm imagining things from physical culture in 1898. Well, also in East Germany pre-1980 Olympics, this is how they all trained. Mine, of course, a time of the other thing that was included too. That plus steroids. Yes, yes. Horse steroids.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Yes. Horseroids. Well, no. Horseroids is horse hemorrhoids. Oh, that's when they're anus. Horsteroids is what you want. Oh, horse deroids. Horsteroids is horse hemorrhoids.
Starting point is 00:37:03 And then her story is horse hemorrhoids. And then her story is the history of women. Women can be historical figures too. Women can be. They all out? Women can be asteroids too. You said it, Jordan. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:17 It's a hot take. Sorry. I mean, I don't know. No, maybe I'm going to get dragged in the comments. I think so. Jordan, I'll say it. I'm reading the comments right now, and it says, Jordan is my shiro. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:37:28 You're so brave. You dropped this king, and then it's a gift of a crown. For me, a man who simply tells the truth? No, no. Jordan, who's the real heroes, if you were going to say? Oh, uh, single moms? Yeah, you got it. It's single moms.
Starting point is 00:37:44 When something momentous happens to you, give us a call at 206-9844-fund, or send us a voice memo at JJ Go at maximum fun.org. In fact, given that it's the 21st century, we're a quarter century into the 21st century, just sent us the fucking voice memo. You got a nice microphone right there inside your telephone that you're listening to this very podcast on. J.J.go at maximum fun.org. Here's an example of a momentous occasion that's been sent to us. Hey, JJ. So I woke up this morning with the goal that I was finally going to tackle my jungle of a fun yard. So I took out the lawnmower. I put on a podcast and I'm about halfway through the yard. when my mower just went totally kaput.
Starting point is 00:38:22 So I drove to my partner's dad's house and asked if he had a lawnmower that I could borrow to finish his job. And he did, score. So I opened up the back of my car to load the mower in, but I had forgotten that I had went out floating on the lake with some friends a few days prior. So the back of my car was absolutely full of pool noodles and tubes that we then had to, like, awkwardly deflate and squish into the passenger seat and, like, he's around to fit the lawnmower in. And as we were doing that, I noticed that one of his neighbors, or I guess his neighbor's kids, had set up a cute little lemonade stand. So as a reward for a job well done, we went and bought a lemonade for the great low price of $1. So I'm now sitting in a hat park surrounded by a grassy lawnmower, a bunch of pool tours, and an ice
Starting point is 00:39:15 cold lemonade. And I'm feeling like a real summer board. love y'all yeah this sounds like a real fucking summer boy to me jordan yes for your information we have a tradition on the show okay people call in with times that they were a summer boy oh uh doing summer boy things chilling and grill in uh i mean this is a perfect example picking up a lawn mower from your father-in-law well i mean i would say i don't know if it's specifically a summer boy thing to show up at your father-in-law's house and say i need a lawnmower to finish the job. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:39:50 That seems like something inappropriate to say to your father-in-law. Right. Yeah, he's going to need more information. Yeah. But, yes, I think borrowing a tool from your father-in-law in general is a great summer boy activity. Absolutely. Especially for an outdoor tool activity.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Mm-hmm. Like maybe you need an extending ladder. Yes. That kind of thing. Now, the one weakness of this call, I'd say this call is almost wall-to-wall strengths. delightful topic great story fun delivery yes spirited delivery extraordinary charming manner of speech i'm going to say the one weakness here is that there's an obvious solution to the tubing uh back of the car space dilemma which is fucking
Starting point is 00:40:40 rip that cord and just put that clean put that uh lawnmower straight in there and let it take care the business. Yes. Let it push the car down the street? No, let it fucking, there's no room because there's too many fucking tubes back there. Guess what has a rotating blade, Jordan? You want him to chop up all the tubes? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Just fucking, you know what? Driving in there. That is a good idea. Yes. Thanks, Jordan, because I'm making a podcast. Flula, how do you feel about summer? I cannot just add one thing. There was a German word in case people did know it's kaput, and that means it was broken.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Oh, thank you for the translation. We don't. I thought that was like if you grind up almonds and sugar together. Okay, that's called matzipon. You make a Golden Gate bridge out of it. Yes, and that's my Thanksgiving dinner. Okay. Stick the napkin in your shirt.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Take that bridge. And then when I'm done, I jump off the edge. Yep. That's nice. Summer, you a fan? No. Not a fan. Dislike it greatly.
Starting point is 00:41:46 You have a great. The summer fit, though, the summer fit is strong. Well, it's, it's, uh, the sun is not out. If it were out, this is an evening podcast, if people don't know. I would be wearing a full, it's kind of an after eight. If the sun, exactly. If the sun were out, the guns would be put away. Bye, bye.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Yeah. Holstered three times over. I have a sunshirt. I have a sombrero hat. I have a thing. I look like a beekeeper in life. So I hate summer. It's also very warm.
Starting point is 00:42:11 I don't like this. I like to be cold at all times. I like drizzle. Yeah. Drisdell is nice. It feels nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So count me out.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Sorry, I don't want to be a summer boy. Well, you're faking it well. Oh, thanks. Yeah. Here's the thing. Yes. And I say this, like, I also hate summer. Great.
Starting point is 00:42:31 I'm from San Francisco. Oh. It's too hot during the summer in any other place. Yeah. Basically. Agree. And I get tired. I get cranky if I don't get my numnums.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Oh, yeah. I get headaches. I get, uh, I, all kinds of I don't like wearing shorts. I mean, I wear shorts because what am I
Starting point is 00:42:51 going to do? Not wear shorts, but I don't like it the whole time. Yep. Just want to be wearing some blue jeans. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:56 And of course, Jordan is from Orange County. Jordan loves tubing. Jordan looks good in a tank top. I tried to do once and failed. But yes, I do.
Starting point is 00:43:06 Yeah. It's because I kind of, yes, I do like it. I like to think about it. Yes. Yeah. So, like, obviously,
Starting point is 00:43:12 it comes more naturally to Jordan. Mm-hmm. Well, let me just say this, Flula. you don't have to be into summer to be a summer boy oh but it's in the name it's a real okay so don't take this so literally you don't have to be so German okay you they have metaphors in Germany I'm not okay fair enough we have the word metaphor okay I want you to know that it's really it's about the spirit of the thing so it's about embracing a kind of a carefree spirit, a joie de vivre, to say it in German. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:43:56 Fluent. A certain kind of magical, I hate to kill back to German, but jeanissequois. Yes. Yes, they have a word for everything. The closest thing I think we have in Germany is called nihilism. So that's basically what this sounds like. Interesting. That's what I can relate to your summer boy.
Starting point is 00:44:17 Okay. Stephen, we got another call in there? Hey, Jordan, Jesse, guest. Calling in for your segment, things I saw when I was driving back from lunch. Can you pause this? Just for flu, just so you know. A lot of people think that people just call into the show with whatever they want to tell us about. And then they say it's for our segment, blah, blah, blah, they just make up some shit.
Starting point is 00:44:38 The reality is Jordan and I are professional creative people. Of course. So we come up with a lot of ideas for segments that people know about. and then they call in for them because of the hard work we've done. You've generated these ideas yourself. Yes, of course. Okay. Not true.
Starting point is 00:44:50 I was coming back from lunch, and I was passing the old hobby shop that they turned into the Amish mercantile. And, you know, they got that pig out front you can paint. And somebody painted him up to make him look like he's wearing little deans. Can you find that for a second? A nice hobby shop you got here. Be a shame if it turned into an Amish mercantile. Is that your Amish Sopranos character?
Starting point is 00:45:11 Hey, nice Aussie planes you got over there. Be ashamed of somebody who wove a beautiful quilt. Yeah, would it be awful if that was a handmade broom? Wouldn't it be awful? And I was passing the old hobby shop that they turned into the Amish mercantile. And, you know, they got that pig out front you can paint. And somebody painted him up to make him look like he's wearing little jeans. All right, thanks.
Starting point is 00:45:37 Love you, too. Love you, too. Love you as well? Yeah, you can also love them. Okay. Nice pig. I think you got there would be a shame if somebody painted him to look like he's got a little jeans on. You raising my bond?
Starting point is 00:45:46 Are you raising my bond? Are you raising my bond? Are you raising my bond? Anyway. So that's the Amish Sopranos guy character. We love him. They respect the Sabbath. They sure do.
Starting point is 00:46:02 It's interesting that, you know, usually when like the old hobby shop closes down, you know, something like a sweet green goes in there. You know, some kind of modern yuppie thing. Maybe one of those social media cookies. Yeah, right. Yes. A crumble or a... Yes, without the E. Without the E.
Starting point is 00:46:21 Something without the E. Whatever it is. No E. No E in the logo. Sorry. But it's interesting that this turned into something... Some E and me when I'm eating the cookies because it makes them taste better. Yeah, well, sure.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Yeah. And you're coming out of the rave. Yeah. You want a snack. So cookies and, of course, Vix Vapo rub. Vicks Vapo rub. Fix a vapor rub. But it's interesting that this, the, the, the folksy thing closed down and turned to something
Starting point is 00:46:44 more folksy. Yeah. Wild. I know. That's incredible. But how sad would it be? You know how America's small towns are losing their main streets? I do know that.
Starting point is 00:46:56 I've heard of this. Yeah. You know about this. You're not even from America. You're just a resident. You're a guest here. I'm a guest. Thanks again.
Starting point is 00:47:03 You're a beloved guest. Oh. Welcome, we say. Well, thank you, I say to you. Yeah. On behalf of God's United States, welcome. Wow. Welcome.
Starting point is 00:47:13 Thank you, guys. We welcome you. But, you know, one of the biggest problems is it's so hard in small town America now to get R.C. airplane parts. Right. Right. Like, if you're an uncle and you want to build a tiny rocket ship. Yeah, because you had no children. What are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:47:35 Go to the Walmart down the road? You're not going to. They don't have it. No. What are you going to do? Order it from Amazon where there's an extraordinary selection of them, any kind you could ever want. And it comes to your house the next day. You don't have to leave your house?
Starting point is 00:47:48 No. You couldn't do that. You can't. This story is about one of the in-cell listeners. Yeah. Okay. Our show is mostly listened to by childless uncles. Ah, got it.
Starting point is 00:48:00 Yeah. A great demo. Yeah. But, you know, they do great stuff for the hobby industry. Sure. They're keeping all of Burbank alive. And they give you a little sip of beer at that. If you haven't had a little bit of beer, they'll give you a little bit of Thanksgiving.
Starting point is 00:48:12 They'll probably give you a little bit of beer. That's how you learn that beer tastes bad. Should we have a little bit of beer and then come back for some more? 2069844 Fun or JJGo at Maximum Fun.org. We'll be back in just a second on Jordan Jesse Go. La La La La La.

There we go. That's 12 minutes right there, yeah. Plus, I mean, not to brag, but I had to reheat some tomales.
Starting point is 00:52:15 Okay. So, that's probably also a good soundtrack for that activity. I thought 90 seconds might do it, but they needed two minutes because there was two of them on the plate. That's a track right there. You got to remember that extra 30 seconds, if there's two on the plate. You know what I mean? Anyway, I'm just saying I like the part where those children said you had no teeth.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Oh, thank you very much. Yeah, the highlight. Also accurate. These are dentures. We haven't mentioned that to the audience at home, but we're just seeing literal flapping gums over here. Right, right. Left my polygrip at home.
Starting point is 00:52:44 Wonderful enunciation, though. Thank you very much, yeah. Using my lips as teeth. His mother teaches languages to children with no teeth. Right, right, right. Lips can often be teeth. Not a lot of people know that. Wow.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Women can be asteroids and lips can be teeth. Sorry, I'm going to get it in the comments. but hello I'm getting a call from the woke police they say you've won an award for best guy they're giving out awards now I can't wait to collect it
Starting point is 00:53:15 yeah they said you hit four home runs in the woke police athletic league okay it's true it didn't have anything to do with the stuff about single mothers and stuff they don't listen to podcasts they like the thing about gums and teeth
Starting point is 00:53:26 well they watch Rogan oh on YouTube that's okay that's surprising but yeah You know, people are complicated. It's true. People are complicated. Yeah, they also be sharpened. So people can listen to the album with kids, without kids.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Yes, thank you for bringing it back. Is there one you would prefer? Children or adults? Or like, can adults listen to it without kids? Is that better? Is it okay if people listen, even if they're not a Nielsen family? I don't, you could be Johnny number five from Short Circuit. If you're listening to the songs, yes, he's great.
Starting point is 00:53:56 Wait, hold on. Quick question. Uh-huh. Follow-up question, Flula? Yeah. What if I'm one of those robots from batteries, not included? I was just going to reference this movie. And yes, you too can play our songs.
Starting point is 00:54:10 Okay, last question. Do you mind taking another question? I can handle it, yes. Is the floor still open? Transformers versus GoBots? No, sir. I'm a go-bots guy. Obviously.
Starting point is 00:54:19 Question here. Yes. I'm one of the old people from the movie Cacoon. Yes. Can I listen to your album? Your desiccated corpse, if it happens to tip over, because you've been dead. Well, you've been dead. In that pool from the movie cocoon.
Starting point is 00:54:34 Okay, sure. We can pour some of that pool water onto your Spotify account and, like, hits the space bar. That also counts as a play. Okay. I have Apple music, though. Still true. We'll just do an old tab, switch apps. I'll do that.
Starting point is 00:54:46 And then your co-ops can hit play. That's nice. There's also, Jordan, there's a song that's just a children's go-to-sleep meditation. Oh, yeah? But then it's just a deradactal flying into a pile of cans. And then 13 jumbo jets. It's really good. It's very effective.
Starting point is 00:55:08 A lot of really funny stuff in this children's album. This is definitely an album for four to nine-year-olds, but there's a lot of good, there's a lot of good humor in here. And adult idiots. And adult idiots, of course, well. Yes, yes. And they can listen to the album wherever you stream a song and they can also come see you at Austin City Limits.
Starting point is 00:55:27 Yes, perhaps, yes. But in the meantime, just slippery when peeled, go banana, go, Fluliburg, type that shites in. you'll get something the title's so funny thank you very much i did not create it thank you it's really good jim and brian very smart very talented how did you get into this business which one the show show who let you into our office i accidentally won a hype man contest there you go that's it yeah now he's spliff star buster rhymes his sidekick star Yeah, 12 mile.

Starting point is 00:55:59 No, how did you get into the children's music business? Oh, they invited me. The children didn't. Go Banana Go. Jim and Brian invited me to be a part of their band for just some songs, and so we enjoyed it. And these guys are my understanding of the provenance of this. Yes. Is these guys are popular non-children's comedy music guys.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Correct. They have worked one on NSP Ninja Sex Party. Brian is a Ninja Brian and Jim is a BTS man who helps make very wonderful. wonderful musics with them. Okay. Amongst other things. So he's in BTS? He's at BTS.

Starting point is 00:56:55 Yes, exactly. So previously, a lot of people didn't know about him and they'd be like, why are they called the spice girls when girl isn't in any of their names? Boy girl was... Boy girl tied it all together. But then he left and then, nah, they kept the name. Like, what's this?
Starting point is 00:57:10 Continuity, copyrights, you get it. That makes a ton of sense. That makes a ton of sense. And you know what else? That is what constitutes a podcast. Yes. You know? Is saying things like that.
Starting point is 00:57:21 Makes sense. So those guys had a comedy music career that was outside of the children's fear. Yes. They just were making up dumb songs for their children, and then they were like, well, we know Fulabor, we should invite him to sing on this. Yes. So they made many very wonderful songs before me and will after me.
