Starting point is 00:00:00 Give a little time for the child within you. Don't be afraid to be young and free. Undo the locks and throw away the keys and take off your shoes and socks and run you. It's Jordan, Jesse Go. I'm Jesse Thorne. The roids are back in town. Jordan Morris, boy detective. That's just a warning that I try and give at the top of the show because once in a while I'll do a course of steroids to interrupt migraine, migrainous, status migrainous, I think is what it's called, which is an intractable migraine. Once in a while, I'll do some roids. And when I'm on the roids, who knows when I'll rage. So I'm going to have
Starting point is 00:00:40 a positive attitude, but at any moment, like Jose Canseco, I may fill up my Porsche with jet fuel because it's been knocking and pinging. When you say the roids are back in town, do you do your roids with the guys down at Dino's Bar and Grill? Yeah, absolutely. 100%. You and all your buddies go down to Dino's. Are these mouth steroids or are these injectables? Oh, God. How much would I love to have Big Mac come into my bathroom and poke me in the ass with
Starting point is 00:01:15 those roids? What a dream that would be to have the home run, the single season, the former single season home run king, the 70 dinger man, Mark McGuire. Oh, when you said Big Mac, I was envisioning that McDonald's character who has a burger for a head, but that's Mayor McCheese. Not Big Mac tonight? You're not thinking of Big Mac tonight? No, he has a moon for a head.
Starting point is 00:01:38 Oh, that's true. Yeah. Has Doug Jones ever been on this show before? That's Doug Jones in there. The actor Doug Jones. Nice man. Anyway, my point here is that- Those Guillermo del Toro Hellboy movies are great.
Starting point is 00:01:50 They are. They're fantastic. I really love those. Me too. All that I'm trying to say is they're oral steroids, but I would love it if- Administered by the grimace. Yeah. Robble, robble?
Starting point is 00:02:03 Is that what? No, that's what the Hamburg that's the hamburger yeah okay well we've got that sorted out this is great we're getting all our mcdonald land characters straight at the end of the day jordan i think you and i both know that if anyone was going to shoot me in the ass with steroids from the tie-in world of a major hamburger chain it would be iq from the burger king kids club of course yeah that guy can find a vein like nobody's business just iq knows how to find those honking little blood highways you know why he was he was an army medic for six years and a junkie for 15 after that. So between the two.
Starting point is 00:02:48 IQ has lived. IQ has really had a full. Had a rich life. He's got a lot of stories, a lot of wisdom. And you know what? I was talking to IQ the other day. He was telling me about his travels. And he said that Milan is really two cities. Oh. Yeah. I thought that was interesting.
Starting point is 00:03:08 And if you asked him about Budapest, he just gets a wistful look in his eye and stares off, says, I don't want to talk about it. He doesn't know what to say about Budapest that actually literally is two cities. His main metaphor is out when you're talking about two cities, Buda and pashed on opposite sides of a river okay jordan what's going on with you my friend god damn it just tell me what's going on with you well i had a fun weekend and i went to the western store oh what yes i needed a bolo tie not needed wanted i guess i should Well, it's on the line between wanted and needed. That's true.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I needed it to tie off my arm to find a vein. And I wanted to do it in kind of like a kitschy way. Yeah, sort of like how, W-W-L-L-D. What would Lyle Lovett do? Right, exactly. I always ask myself that before making a big decision. That's why I've married Julia Roberts so many times. Marrying Julia Roberts.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Never again. I'm never making that mistake again. The laugh's just too cute. Just gets you to do anything she wants. The laugh's too cute. Charmer. No, our buddies, Rhett and Link, are having a con next week. I think when this airs, the con will have happened. It's called Mythicon.
Starting point is 00:04:23 It is in Austin, Texas, one of my favorite places in the world. Again, by the time this comess, the con will have happened. It's called Mythicon. It is in Austin, Texas, one of my favorite places in the world. Again, you know, by the time this comes out, maybe this will have happened. So maybe I will have died there. Maybe I will have been eaten. Well, our friend Lauren Pasternak has a giant sausage restaurant there. Yeah, I'm going to go to I'm going to go to Banger's and hang out with Lauren. It's going to be great. Head to Banger's if you're ever in Austin.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Yeah, have some sausages. The sausages are standard sized. Yeah. The restaurant is giant. Restaurant's huge. Sausages are probably a little bigger than a normal sausage, right? Yeah, bigger than most. 75th percentile.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Okay. Now that we've got that squared away, the kind of closing night of this con, they're having a like western themed dance party you know and i don't want to go you know i'm not a i'm not an all-out outfit guy i'm not a you know not my not my thing to go wild with a theme but i do like to acknowledge a theme if there is one me either i i'd never i would never never. You like to take a different theme. Yeah. So if the theme is Western, you like to show up as one of those World War I Boy Scouts or something. I'm not literally thinking about registering for this con just so that I can wear
Starting point is 00:05:37 this shawl-collared suede Ralph Lauren country jacket that I bought at the flea market like a year ago. I refurbished a whole nudie suit. God damn it. Nowhere to wear it. So yeah, I just wanted to, I wanted to have a little something to, you know, to go with the theme. So I thought bolo tie would be a lot of fun. I had been to the country general store in Van Nuys to purchase a bolo for a wedding i went to a few years ago that had a theme of country cocktail it drove me insane thinking about what that what that meant it was lyle elvett and julia roberts yeah and it was weird because i had also been married to her but right you know i decided to be the bigger man sure um and just fucking stared daggers at Lovitz. You decided to be the big mist. Yeah. You never got divorced. That's true. I said Lovitz and not Lovitz. Julia Roberts has
Starting point is 00:06:32 also been married to John Lovitz, right? Sure. She loves to marry surprising men. Oh, she was married. Okay. Anyway, you know, this, this bolo tie that I had gotten for the wedding got lost several moves ago. Hold on. Sorry, Jordan. I got to say an important thing. Can you say that Julia Roberts has already been married to John Lovitz? Sure. Julia Roberts has also been married to John Lovitz. Yeah, that's the ticket. So glad we went back. Thank you, Jesse. Thank you for bringing us back. Imagine if this show had stayed on the rails and we had missed that thank you i'm just i just want to marinate in that for a little while sure it's his famous catchphrase hilarious voice john lovitz sure so i knew that there was this
Starting point is 00:07:18 western store in van nuys van nuys like the oft mentioned on this show burbank is a place to go for like a hyper specific store that has been there since like 1950 or whatever right a real magical place in that in that way and there is a like just a western store that sells all manner of western wear but it seems like a lot of what they do is like ostrich skin boots with knife tips. Right. What do you call these, Jesse? Do you know in the fashion world, what is an ostrich skin boot with a knife tip called? And where does that originate from? Called badass, as far as I know. Well, I mean, here in Southern California, there are two main kinds of Western store. main kinds of Western store. One is like your classic, I mean, here in LA, it's kind of like a John Wayne kind of thing. It's like people, Ronald Reagan, like people who think of themselves
Starting point is 00:08:15 as ranchers, that kind of thing. And then there's a lot of Mexican Western stores, you know, Northern Mexicans, especially really into Western wear, but there are some really specific kinds of Mexican boots. There's those ones with the long wraparound noses, like, you know, the toes go like 18 inches long. This is what I'm, this is what I'm referring to. Oh, great. Yeah. Love that all over it. Amazing. Hard to walk as I can imagine, but it's hard enough. It's kind of a little hard to walk as i can imagine but it's hard enough it's a little hard to walk in regular western boots so there you go so there's a little spinner rack of bolo ties you know the price range about between like 30 and 40 dollars
Starting point is 00:08:56 kind of browsing these bolos clerk comes up to me and he's like let me know if you want to see the good ones oh my god yes i'm like yeah i want to see the good ones yeah fuck yeah you want to see so he takes me to another part of the store and i'm sick of bullshit i know i know and i like i like that he clocked me and is like this guy this doofus this doofus in jean shorts and flip flops probably wants to see the good shit. And he took me to a case and there was just so many beautiful bolos. But the one that I loved the most was a bolo where the you know centerpiece was a crystal dragon with red eyes and it was so it was so fucking amazing this was in the again to clarify this was in the good ones this isn't yeah this is not the you know spinner rack that they have out for the tourists or the
Starting point is 00:10:04 you know people go into some kitschy party where they need a costume piece this is not the spinner rack that they have out for the tourists or the people going to some kitschy party where they need a costume piece. This is for the real bolo fiends. Yeah, this isn't for the crowds that throng the sidewalks of Van Nuys on weekends searching for cheap thrills, postcards to send home and garbage bolo ties yeah and i i'm like boy this you know if this guy thinks thinks this much of me this guy who's you know line of work is western wear he he he wanted me to see the good ones fucking dragon bolo was 300 bucks. Wow. And I'm like, do I do it? Do I do it? It's little dragon jaws opened and said, put me around your neck and feel my power surge through you. Neck me, daddy.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Like a mighty Targaryen. Put me on and fuck a cousin, it said. That's a joke about the Targaryens, not Southern people. Yeah. But I didn't do it. I bought a fucking bullshit $30 one off the spinner rack,
Starting point is 00:11:13 like a goddamn noob, fucking just a Southern California soft boy going to his kitschy little party with his dumb fucking friends. Do you want to see the $30 bolo that I got? Yeah. Should we introduce our guest on the program here? Because she is real excited to get into this bolo situation.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Our guest is a television writer and performer. She is a social media celebrity. She is a friend of ours. She is the belle of the ball at JC Pineapples, Blair Erskine. Oh, thank you so much. I'm honored to be here for the reveal. And thank you for specifying that you weren't talking about Southern people cousin fucking. Jordan, I appreciate that. Yeah, I would never do that hacky joke. I'm making a hacky joke about Game of Thrones. That's the hacky material that I like. Everybody knows those nasty Targaryens
Starting point is 00:12:15 love to extend the bloodline. Jordan would never make a joke about Southerners fucking cousins, not least because he has Southern cousins. I do. And he would always make a joke about Targaryens because he knows that i'm half fucking targaryen so fuck you now look what you've done my long beautiful blonde hair just are you just like one of those white people who love to say they're 116th cherokee or something
Starting point is 00:12:41 try and get a little college grant. Like, oh, I'm... 186. I'm part Targaryen. Oh, boy. So here's the bolo. Here's the bolo I decided on. It has a little silver piece and a little turquoise in the middle.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Wow. It's a nice little piece. Yeah, I like it a lot. You know, I'm always going to look at it and be mad at it that it's not a crystal dragon with red eyes but this is the you know i'm not a i'm not a i'm i'm doing okay but i'm not doing 300 bolo okay you know yeah jordan if only if only you had a friend who was a bolo dealer if only you had a close personal friend on the video conference with you right now
Starting point is 00:13:28 who vends bolos and has probably 20 of them oh my gosh what was my piece talking about me yeah this is what blair is just over there you're lousy with bolos. At the Jimmy Kimmel program, selling bolos to the guests as they pass through. Like when the soul singer Solomon Burke would wander the aisles before he went on at the Apollo selling sandwiches. Times are tough. Yeah. And I love bolo ties. Times are tough and Louis Vertel won't wear a regular tie. And I love bolo ties.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Times are tough and Louis Vertel won't wear a regular tie. My God. If Louis Vertel sees you wearing that bolo tie, it's over. You're dead. You, Jordan Morris, are dead. Wow. Well, I had a good run. Killed by Louis Vertel for wearing a bolo is a pretty honorable death.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I think about my own personal fear every morning when I get dressed. I think about what Lewis is going to say about my outfit. Wow. Does Lewis Vertel, now Lewis Vertel, for folks who don't know, one of the funniest dudes around, one of the most insightful dudes around, one of Twitter's best tweeters, particularly if you want really incisive jokes about actresses. Very specific. So specific. Like if you want a perfect Marsha Gay Harden joke, Louis Vertel is your man, but Louis will, what kind of comments does Louis make on your outfits Blair? Well, it's not really anything he said to me. I see what he says to other people and I haven't, you know, been, been the recipient of any of his, but one time he's our friend, Danny Ricker was wearing an outfit,
Starting point is 00:15:05 just an outfit that normal people wear. And Lewis leaned over to me and said, Danny's looking like a Build-A-Bear today. And Danny was in fact looking like a Build-A-Bear that day. I can't explain it. It was beautiful. I think about it every day and I don't want that for myself. So he's really made me a better person in that respect. Let's just say, let's just say I were Louis Vertel. Let's just say, were I Louis Vertel? I'm thinking about what kind of choices I would make. I'd be sure. Would I be bubbling over with brilliance, both standard and comic?
Starting point is 00:15:43 Yes. Absolutely. Would I have incisive things to say about every element of the appearance of everyone around the room at any given time? Yes. Would I be wearing one of those super stretchy all over print t-shirts that's just got Faye Dunaway's face all over it? Every single day. Yes.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Yes. Would I comment on other people's clothes? That's the thing about Lewis. Oh, I love him. I love him. So this episode will probably air sometime in November, but we are recording this in the guts, up in the guts of spooky season. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:27 And I think the best spooky season thing that I have seen is a little Twitter vid that Blair made about the new Disney Plus streaming hit, Hocus Pocus 2. And this is, Blair, you were doing this kind of in character as a woman who is warning parents against the dangers of Hocus Pocus 2. That's right. You should go watch this vid. We'll retweet it from our Twitter account so you can take a peek.
Starting point is 00:16:58 It's so hilarious. Great jokes. It's so exciting. That's right, Blair. Your million Twitter follower account is going to get the Jordan Jessica 4000 bump. That's going to send me over the edge. Yeah. Is there a better writing job than Kimmel we can get you? Yeah. You want
Starting point is 00:17:16 Colbert? We can get you Colbert. Yeah. We'll get you Colbert. We'll get you the Jay Leno show. That's a 10 primetime, baby. His new game show? That's right. Ohetime, baby. His new game show? That's right. For sure, why not? Oh my God. On MSNBC, maybe?
Starting point is 00:17:29 On whatever it's on. Yeah. Speed TV. Speed TV. And I think there's two amazing things about this video. One, people in the comments are taking it seriously.
Starting point is 00:17:42 So seriously. And two, this is based on a real person can you i want to hear about both of these things based on a real person and her name is jamie gooch this is her name fucking amazing oh she's mrs gooch mrs gooch dr gooch excuse me. I didn't go to eight years of Gooch medical school to be called Mrs. Jamie Gooch is her name. Yeah, she was
Starting point is 00:18:11 really pissed off about it. And yeah, people think it's real. And it's really blown up on TikTok more so than Twitter. And going viral on TikTok is an experience. And this is my first time with it because on Twitter, people will just retweet and be like, you know, this is stupid. And on TikTok, they'll make a video and they'll be like 10 reasons why this bitch is fucking dumb. You have to watch it. So that's been fun. I've been loving that. Are the people on TikTok making these types of videos? Are they people who don't like that you're making fun of like religious people, I guess? Or are
Starting point is 00:18:45 they people who think you're serious? No, they're people who think I'm serious. They're people who think I'm serious. And they've really taken to the last part of the video where I say, I say like, I don't, or if it comes on the TV, it can come on you. And so that's become like a soundbite on Twitter. So now I'm the come girl on Twitter and that it can come on you girl. And they're, they're stitching it with who they want to come on them. And so I get to see the inner workings of people's minds. It's been a real horny, spooky season for me. Who do they want to come on them?
Starting point is 00:19:16 Every K-pop band, a lot of anime characters, Loki. Wait, hold on, Blairir i have a question yeah is that part of k-pop that you want them to come on you i don't want you to you need to phrase that better because no i don't want them to come on me but but there are who do you want them to come on i want them to come on whoever makes them happy but they're first of all forgive forgive me on whom would you like them to come thank you thank you that's what i yes hey how long do you think it would take the members of bts to fill up a milkshake cup they're doing military service right now jordan oh my gosh sorry j Christ. We're on to other ones. Can you imagine how well they would operate
Starting point is 00:20:08 like the bombing well of a B2 bomber? We're BTS and we're doing some bombs. It's crazy that they're doing that. And then I read they're going to come back. They're going to rejoin BTS. Like what's that music going to be like after you're in the fucking military in South Korea? So, yeah, lots of K-poppers, lots of Loki, lots of The Witcher, lots of Henry Cavill.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Are people horny for Loki? They sure are. And I can't explain it. Yeah, no, I think Loki is Loki's been a horny target since that first Avengers movie. Is he like the new Cumberbatch or is Cumberbatch still Cumberbatch? I haven't seen any Cumberbatches, to be honest, on my cum talk. I do think that Tom Hiddleston, the actor who plays Loki, I do think that he is probably popular with the same people who are horny for Cumberbatch.
Starting point is 00:21:05 I would guess. Sure, yeah. The Marvel cum-o-matic universe. Yeah, the C stands for cum. He thought it was super cinematic. It actually stands for cum, the Marvel cum universe. I'm looking at some pictures of Tom Hiddleston. I had seen the show Loki, although I was disappointed I didn't get to any parts with Owen Wilson.
Starting point is 00:21:25 Wasn't Owen Wilson in that show. Oh, yeah. Was he? Yeah. I wanted to see the Owen Wilson parts. I love that guy. Have you seen Marry Me with J-Lo and Owen Wilson? Because I watched it on the plane today. I've thought about it. And had I ridden a plane today, I very well might have. It's fantastic. I can't recommend it. It might be the best film. And I do mean it as a film that I've ever seen. I was completely taken. I cried. I honestly spend a lot of time thinking about Owen Wilson and hoping he's doing okay. I think he's doing okay. Because I just think he's so great.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Yeah, he is great. He made me very happy today. Please watch it. And I want to talk to you about the premise of the movie is insane. Tom Hiddleston didn't co-write Rushmore. Let's talk about Marry Me. What's the premise of Marry Me? Can I tell you what the premise is? I guess like browsing by it on your streaming service, it
Starting point is 00:22:17 looks like a very down-the-middle rom-com with obviously two of the best to ever do it. But it just kind of looks like a rom-com. Yeah. It looks standard. When I moved out here, I kept seeing billboards for it. I thought it was a joke. I thought it was like a spoof. Like it was going to be a, um, like a parrot and it's not, it's very, it takes itself kind of seriously, but it's J-Lo is basically J-Lo, but her name is Kat. I'm going to try to make this quick. And she is engaged. No, no, extend. This shit's going to be
Starting point is 00:22:42 90 minutes, Blair. Blair, Blair, just say Catherine. Just say Catherine. Just say Catherine. Her name is Katharina. And she's a pop star. And she is engaged to another Latino pop star. His name is Bastion. And they have this hit song together called Marry Me.
Starting point is 00:22:58 And they're going to perform it together live in New York somewhere. And at the same time, it's like a big event. Everyone knows they're also going to exchange vows on stage. And so like Hoda is talking about it. Jimmy Fallon's talking about it. Everyone's excited. And this is how the movie starts. Owen Wilson is a divorced dad and has a daughter and he wants his daughter to think that he is cool. And so he goes to the concert with his friend, Sarah Silverman. And then he lets BTS come on him. And then he just, yeah, it's just, oh God, drizzled and come. So he's there as Sarah Silverman and she's holding a sign that says, marry me. And then she gives it to Owen Wilson to hold because she has to hold her phone or something.
Starting point is 00:23:37 At the same time that's happening, guys, Kat is finding out that Bastion has cheated on her with her assistant. And so she comes out on stage and realizes she can't marry. Are you following me? Is this making sense? This is all in the first 10 minutes of the movie. I'm riveted, by the way. She realizes, and there are thousands of people at this concert. She realizes she can't marry Bastion because he cheated on her.
Starting point is 00:23:57 And so she sees Owen Wilson holding the sign and she says, you, I want to marry you. And then he comes up on the stage. But she gave him the sign. No the stage but she gave him the sign no Sarah Silverman gave him the sign so you haven't been following me this is what I'm picking up and so they get married at the first 10 minutes and the rest of the movie is them
Starting point is 00:24:16 learning how to love each other and it's beautiful and it works out for them and I'm rooting for them as a couple in real life and then at the end it kind of has like a when Harry met Sally montage of like different couples talking about how they met. And then they're like, we met at a concert and you're just bawling at that point.
Starting point is 00:24:31 I'm not even doing it justice. Yeah. I love concerts too. I love concerts. Man. I love paying 12 bucks for a beer, but I mean, the song slaps though. Like like the Marry Me song.
Starting point is 00:24:46 It should be. I don't know why it's not streaming. Maybe it is. Sounds really good. Does Jayla do any sexual dancing in the film? Yeah, she does. And she does it while singing church, church, church, church. And she's in like a fully nude bodysuit.
Starting point is 00:25:01 And she's just just repeating the word church over and over. That sounds. Yeah yeah lots of sexual that sounds hot and confusing it was i'm confused by how horny that makes me i watched this right after i watched love story on the plane and so that's a double feature an emotional roller coaster yeah yeah because yeah because i mean the thing about the plane elevation is that like shrek will make you cry, you know? So you're like, let's really drill down on this. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:25:29 I think it's because, you know, you could die at any moment, like on the plane. You know what I mean? I think that does do something to my emotions. I'm just on a death bus. And it also, it deadens your sense of taste a little bit. So you have to put extra salt on your food for it to taste the same. Yeah. So that could make you really emotional. Everybody watch Marry Me. No one's paying me to say this. Blair, can I back up to Gooch for a second? Yeah. Go back to Jamie Gooch. I don't want to neglect the Gooch. Yeah. Far be it from me. We would never. We would never. We would never
Starting point is 00:26:01 neglect the Gooch. Did she see your video i don't know okay i hope so i would love if are you guys gonna bring her out right now yeah god wouldn't that be great ambush because she is like a social media person for like christian is she i don't know i guess i was kind of wondering because i saw hey like news she was like interviewing on the local her local news about are you guys fucking yeah you know a lot about jamie gooch this is this is kind of me coming out and say it i'm changing my name to jordan gooch morris it's very progressive it's very she's very progressive in that way no other ways yeah i don't know how she got on the news i think she made a facebook post and then the news newsed about it so i guess it was a slow news week
Starting point is 00:26:51 there in texas i have no idea people have said crazier things blair are you doing a bit about how you say the word news or is that a standard pronunciation for blair erskine i said news what am i doing what i love it. I think I heard it came off a little like a news. News? Like how a little kitty would say it. Am I saying it wrong?
Starting point is 00:27:15 You say it. No, you say it. Let's all go around. Let's go around and say news. Not me. Not me first. I'll try and use it in a sentence. Hold on. I need to and use it in a sentence. Hold on. I'm going to just turn on the news. News.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Daniel, can you turn on your mic and say news? We should hear Daniel say news. Daniel's going to turn on his mic real quick and say the word news. News. Beautiful. And I'm saying news. He just did it really beautifully.
Starting point is 00:27:45 News. Because he knew that was his shot. News. He leaned in and said, news. News. News. Fuck me. Huey Lewis and the news.
Starting point is 00:27:59 I also say, I will say Mulan, too. I think I'm just doing hue sounds where they don't belong. No, it's beautiful. It's really, yeah. You think so? It's really hypnotic. I find it bewitching. Like Julia Roberts laugh? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Like that sort of charming? It's that kind of thing. Okay. So you saw, did you originally see this video and become enchanted? I mean, you are, as we've said before, you're the internet's number one Karen humorist. Oh. You're the Internet's number one Karen humorist. If there is a local secretary of state, if there is the wife of a governor, if there is a local complainer of some kind, Blair Erskine stands ready to recreate their vibe on Twitter. I am local woman. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:48 People tagged me in that and they really, they really, the people wanted it and I'm just here to give the people what they want. And it was really easy to do because she basically just wrote it. You know, like there's no way to be funnier than a person named Jamie Gooch. That's the problem. Yours has such great jokes in it. But when you do watch the news report that it is based on, it also has great jokes in it that are not supposed to be jokes.
Starting point is 00:29:09 I mean, like, I can't do it. Yeah. I mean, she's amazing. She's honestly my comedy idol. I look up to her. What are her primary objections to the movie? Well, it's that the devil is in it. And that if your kids watch it.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Bette Midler sometimes says something awkward on Twitter and you're like, well, you seem cool, Divine Miss M. No, yeah. Surprisingly, not about not about Bette Midler's bad takes. Yeah. This woman seems to seems to think that if someone on TV says spells, like if the part of the movie is the witch is saying a spell, that spell is cast. The spell has been cast.
Starting point is 00:29:53 So if your children hear the spell, it could turn them into gay. Yeah. Turn them into gay. They could be turned into BTS cum dumpsters. Yeah. It sounds like BTS have cast a spell on me. Yeah. Loki, what are you doing here?
Starting point is 00:30:09 I love a man in uniform. I love a man in uniform. Did you have any attachment to Hocus Pocus before this? Like, Hocus Pocus, I think, is, you know, we often discuss on this show, like, there's that shit that you just missed pop culturally and hocus pocus is a big one for for me but was this like a we caught rug rats but we just missed space jam yeah oh that sucks hocus pocus jam yes it does it's a terrible movie let Let's calm down. Everybody, chill the fuck out.
Starting point is 00:30:45 I had the same attachment that most people my age, especially I think women my age have with Hocus Pocus, which is that we just watch it every year, right? But I'm not obsessed. I don't have to watch it every Halloween, but I will watch it if it's on TV. I've seen it. And my friend's cat's named Binks after Zachary Binks. That's my attachment to it. And my friends, cats named banks after Zachary banks.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Like what? That's my attachment to it. You know what I mean? What are the stars of Hocus Pocus? Bette Midler. Yes. And then Kathy and Jimmy. Am I saying her name right?
Starting point is 00:31:14 Kathy and Jimmy. Kathy News. Kathy News. And then Sex and the State. Carrie Bradshaw. Sarah. Jessica Parker. Jessica Parker. Jessica Parker, Sarah Jessica Parker.
Starting point is 00:31:28 Those are the stars. And they're in Hocus Pocus, too. They're back. I haven't seen that one yet because I don't want my kids to turn gay. And just kids with an earshot. Like, you know, if you like share a wall with a family, they might hear the spell and turn gay. This woman was I don't know if you've seen the news report, Jesse. She was like on the verge of tears.
Starting point is 00:31:48 She was about to cry. She might have let a tear slip. She was really upset. I saw your bit and was worried that it was close to a real person. I was like, my concern here is that this, almost all of the absurdity of this feels like it could be a real person it certainly was i think you guys should get her on the pot yeah should we can't put the gooch she's too busy she's too busy doing spots on the news love to see what she's up to now i'm gonna look her up on instagram really quickly hey let's let's take a break. Blair, you look up the Gooch on Insta. Daniel, you get on trying to get in touch with the Gooch's publicist.

Members of Maximum Fun, on this day of all days, we salute you. Also other days. 365 days of the year. I don't know, Jordan. I did an actual salute. You got it right. Yes, I can confirm two things, that Jesse actually saluted. I can see him here on our video call. He saluted you. And two, that there are actually 365 days per year. Well, sometimes, Jordan, maybe you've heard of a little thing called Leap Day? No, I haven't. Okay. Well, I'll explain it later. Well, I have heard of it. I don't acknowledge it. Okay. Fair enough. Not my day. We are also supported this week by the folks at Lumi Labs. Lumi Labs are what I like to call the microdose people. Oh yeah. I don't
Starting point is 00:33:56 know if you've tried THC edibles out there, maybe you've had an unexpected reaction. Maybe it was too strong. Maybe you, you know. Curled up in a ball. Curled up in a ball. Felt too cranked up when meeting a loved one's parents. I don't know. Whatever it is. Microdosing can help because the doses are smaller. So it's the kind of stuff that can help you, for example, fall asleep at night or be chill in the afternoon. It's the kind of dosages that allow you to go about your normal course of activities in less stressful, more enjoyable context. Yeah, and they do come in really cool, delish flavors. It's just like a nummy gummy that you might get at your local gummy store. But it's got a nice little dose of THC that can, again, it can help you chill out. It can help you
Starting point is 00:34:54 get to sleep. It can help you get in the zone when you're doing some creative work. They're really good. I have used them and I really like them. Microdose gummies are available nationwide. To learn more about microdosing THC, go to microdose.com and use code JJGO to get free shipping and 30% off your first order. Links can be found in the show description. But again, that's microdose.com, code JJGO. That's microdose.com, code JJGO. We're also supported this week by the folks over there at HelloFresh.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Hey, Jesse, we have talked about both Green Chef and HelloFresh on this show, and there's now great news because Green Chef is owned by HelloFresh, and you can switch between the brands at a discount. That's right. HelloFresh sends you really awesome meals in a really cool box packed with cold, cold ice. I wasn't invited to the wedding? No, it was just like a smaller thing.
Starting point is 00:36:02 They didn't want to like make a big deal. Yeah, yeah, just like family and certain... Did you go to the wedding family and certain close friends so did you go to the green chef every plate and hello fresh wedding i i did it was um because i wasn't invited i didn't even get to save the date to it you didn't really miss a lot it was like really fun and cool and obviously the food was awesome but yeah it was just like again just a small family thing a few close friends you know people they work with i really like i was just eating some hello fresh this week i made a pork dish with mustard and apple that i liked a lot but it's weird that they wouldn't invite me to the wedding yeah again but also maybe you know just like you know lost just like, you know, lost in the mail, you know, how the postal service is these days.
Starting point is 00:36:45 It was fun to cook and my whole family liked it. Yeah. It came with all the ingredients pre-portioned and everything. So I just had to chop and it was a, it was one of those sheet pan deals. I'd had some taters in it. I mean, I know just what you mean, Jesse. I also cooked with HelloFresh recently. I made, what I made bulgogi pulled pork wraps. Those are really
Starting point is 00:37:06 good. I did a one pan trattoria tortellini bake. That was really tasty. A nice vegetarian option if you're trying to incorporate some more vegetarian cooking into your lifestyle. But the star of the show was sweet chili turkey and green bean bowls. Jesse, I couldn't believe how good this thing was. I couldn't believe an idiot like me could make this food. I guess that I'll keep eating the food even though they didn't invite me to the wedding. Yeah, it would be kind of dumb to not, you know, eat their delicious food and like prepare their easy to prep meals just because they slighted you socially. Oh, well, if you want to get in on the meal, it's obviously it's too late for the wedding.
Starting point is 00:37:51 It was HelloFresh and Green Chef. Beautiful gift baskets. They had a DJ and everything. And every plate are all already married. So you can get discounts across the brands. You can switch back and forth if you want to. Mark Ronson, Mark Ronson DJ. They had Mark Ronson there? They had the Mark Ronson.

We got it all from beef to pickles. That's a wide spectrum. I love a locally crafted beef. What about a locally crafted pickles? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Cause that's, those are the two things she has there. I mean, she seems normal and nice on Instagram. I gotta be honest. She's got three kids. Can I tell you their names? Can we guess?
Starting point is 00:39:50 Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead and guess. Okay. I'm going old Testament, biblical. Let's say ham. You're so close.

She has a point. She does. My kid wasn't trans until long after 1977. I mean, we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:40:35 1977 never happened. Late aughts. Jesus. Would be my kid. Jamie Gooch has to be stopped. Yeah, we gotta stop this Gooch. But first. We also gotta get some of those pickles. First, let's get that beef. Yeah, we got to stop this Gooch. But first, we also got to get some of those pickles. But first, let's get that beef.
Starting point is 00:40:48 Yeah, I know. We got to get some beef and pickles. Once we get the pickles, then we'll stop her. First, you get the pickles. Then you get the money. Then you stop Gooch. Then you get the power. Wait, what's the order?
Starting point is 00:41:03 When Scarface, when does he say you get the pickles? At what point in the movie Scarface? After you say hello to his little friend. Then he says, say you get the pickles at what point in the movie Scarface after you say hello to his little friend I feel like she's going to take over Ellen's time slot any day now we're going to have the Jamie Gooch show I'm probably going to have to do a writing packet for that oh boy go ahead and start take initiative
Starting point is 00:41:21 yeah she's already guest hosting for Gutfield Jesse did you allude to having some Go ahead and start. Take initiative. Yeah. She's already guest hosting for Gut Field. Jesse, did you allude to having some R.L. Stine news? Yeah, I do have some R.L. Stine news, gang. Hey, gang, Jesse here with some news about R.L. Stine. The great R.L. Stine, of course, is the creator of the Goosebumps books, bestselling series of spooky novels for kids. He, for a long time, he wrote children's
Starting point is 00:41:48 humor books before he discovered spooky stories. And he at the time went by the name Jovial Bob Stein. I love that name. Yeah. So if you see anything about JB, Jovial Bob Stein, that's the same one. But I interviewed him the other day for Bullseye for a big spooky season special. Great show. Anna Fabrega from Melissa's Spooky School is into it. But R.L. Stein just could not have been more of a joy of a human being. Just every bit the delightful dork that just wanted to write books kids would like and think were fun and funny.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Just wants kids to enjoy his books and it's all he cares about. It's great. But as I was interviewing, I found out something really important, which is he used to write Bazooka Joe comics. Wow. That's an auspicious start. Like 50 bucks a piece or something i can't remember what he said a bazooka joe comic cost but like his first gig no he had he didn't get rich and successful until he was like in his 40s wow yeah he's like a 75 year old man who is a squajillionaire and has been since 1992 and they came out in 1991 or whatever but like before that he was he just was a guy that worked at scholastic
Starting point is 00:43:12 yeah he needed the extra money but did he book fairs i bet he did i bet he was the guy that put out the spinners at the book fairs monster truck monster truck books up there eight pages of photos. Trying to move those Garfield calendars. Yeah. That really was at a book fair. Like the move, if you were the I don't watch television kid, if you were growing up to be I don't watch television guy at parties,
Starting point is 00:43:42 was to like give a side like a little like come on to the garfield calendars go straight for the far side calendars even if you were in like fifth grade you didn't little young you like kind of knew it was funny but you couldn't exactly explain why yeah you're like i know there's something about the kitschy hairstyles of the 1950s that's funny but i'm not quite sure i would go straight for like the fucking like spy glasses that they would have you know like the things that absolutely weren't books they had nothing to do with books i got a pair of spy glasses at the book fair probably came with like a how to be a spy book but you could see behind you and i thought that was a
Starting point is 00:44:20 cool i got spy glasses and a dog whistle cool i mean that is pretty good to have those kind of you you can see behind you because it allows you to do investigations and people don't know you're checking out their dicks i wouldn't be alive today yeah without checking out the dicks behind me yeah that's how you were conceived by you future you checking out a dick we gotta write to the gooch about this because this is big if it's true you were right you were right about everything about the pickles about the spells with the beef crafting yeah okay now i. Now I say, and then I, this was not a lead into this because I didn't know what was happening on this week's program, but I did sing the song powerhouse, uh, which is the factory song from Looney Tunes. We have been inviting our listeners to write and record songs to the tune of powerhouse. And I want to be clear here because a lot of people said that i had talked
Starting point is 00:45:28 shit about tiny tune adventures because there was a song with baby looney tunes where they sang lyrics to powerhouse that we found out after we demanded our listeners write in with powerhouse lyrics. And the song that the Looney Tunes sang is garbage. It's a shitty song. It's no good. Our listeners can do better than that. We don't know why, Blair, we don't know why Jesse got so mad at the song. It's okay. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:45:56 That's why it's bullshit. It's half-assed. Really weird. It was fine. And one of the reasons I want to be clear. It was fine. It was a cute cartoon. It was fine.
Starting point is 00:46:03 It was not cute. It was so not cute all right the only good thing i can say about it is it wasn't in that sort of like half-assed pop punk style of every song in every children's cartoon where they're just sort of doing a pop punk song but not really because a cartoon rabbit singing it but, all the parents are with me right now. They know about those fucking songs on Paw Patrol or whatever, but gee whiz, we're way off. Okay. The thing that I'm clarifying is that the show where they sang that half-assed song was not Tiny Toon Adventures. I haven't watched Tiny Toon Adventures as an adult, it i bet it holds up okay i think that was a really good show in its time like a legitimately groundbreaking and very funny show for those
Starting point is 00:46:52 strips of afternoon television shows that we watched as children i bet tiny tunes is good so i want to say tiny tune adventures has i have no beef with this program i think it's a good program i'm glad you got that off your chest definitely liked it when i was you like buster you like babs lucky duck montana max sure montana max the egg with the snorkel from u.s acres sure different universe that's the jim davis verse yeah there's been some crossovers. Yeah. So we've been asking people to send in songs. Thank you for letting me clarify that situation with Tiny Toon Adventures because I've gotten some very angry letters from the folks over at Warner Brothers.
Starting point is 00:47:36 The Warners themselves. Yakko, wacko, dot. Call her Dottie and you die. We have received now on a recent episode, we complained that there weren't enough songs to the tune of powerhouse that were about Rick Moranis or specifically his filmography, not his personal life, which is actually also very interesting.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Sad. It's kind of sad, a little tragic, but then he's recorded some funny country songs so you know he's following his heart takes some yep daniel why don't you play this next uh powerhouse song The FBI sent Rick Moranis, whose name was Barney Cooper Smith, to pick up a protected witness. Steve Martin's a mobster. Rick Moranis has a system for evenly distributing maple syrup bonus pancakes. Rick Moranis is awesome.
Starting point is 00:48:47 My Blue Heaven. My Blue Heaven. My Blue Heaven. My Blue Heaven. My Blue Heaven. My Blue Heaven. Okay. So that was a summary of the film My Blue Heaven.
Starting point is 00:48:58 I loved that. That was great. Evidenced by the outro there. That's beautiful. As recorded in an organ store in the mall in 1982 jesus i mean fuck taylor swift this week yeah that was beautiful that was that was something else fuck taylor fuck carly ray not sick the swifties on us um Yeah, sorry. I forget. We can't say. The BTS stans are already mad at me because
Starting point is 00:49:28 BTS came on me before they came on them. Right. So who are we? Who's mad at us? Taylor Swift fans, BTS fans, Tiny Toon Adventures fans. The Tiny Toon stans. Yakko, Yakko Dot. Brothers Warners. Dr. Scratch and Sniff.
Starting point is 00:49:47 I think the good news is we got Bazooka Joe and the gang on our side Help us Mort Come on Bazooka Joe Come on Mort Come on other characters that we don't remember Help us Confucius We need racist humor I guess that part of Bazooka joe comics probably doesn't hold up yeah i probably
Starting point is 00:50:09 don't do this anymore maybe they do maybe we'll find a way to find out yeah yeah buy some double bubble gum i say yum yum my mom used to whenever she would play santa who is real she would leave uh the big league chew gum in mying. I look forward to that every year. Do you guys remember Big League chew? Oh, yeah, sure. Big League chew is delicious. That and the beef jerky that's like dip. Snuff? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:38 And it comes with a round baseball card? I loved it. Yes, yes. I would throw those away immediately. And then I would just pretend like I should have been sending them to me, but the dip jerky is really great. I didn't know that it was dip themed because there wasn't any dip in my community. You were in a dip, a dip free, a dry community. I think as an adult, I figured out that it was, that it was the big league chew of jerkies. Yes. But as a kid, i had no idea the dip i didn't i knew that baseball players had a lump in their face but i didn't know anything else about yeah i made the mistake of thinking that's what that tasted like oh yeah that seems like a yeah
Starting point is 00:51:22 it's not it does not taste like that. No, it tastes... You were looking for a crafted beef flavor. I was looking for like an IPA-depth sort of situation. Yeah, that's tough. As you probably know, Blair, you've heard the show before. We're really creative guys who think of a lot of our own segments on the show. Sure. Recurring segments everybody loves and people call into.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Nope. They just come... come believe you straight um sorry guys we come sorry come the segments come straight for our from our segments come straight from our hearts the segments come straight from our hearts. They're an expression of who we are that we thought of. They're not. It's not just people calling in because they had some random thing to say. That's what happens. Of a segment to fit it into.
Starting point is 00:52:16 That's the thing. It really speaks to who we are, not just as people, but as citizens, as Americans, people but as citizens as americans as husbands and sons fathers to sons so you sound like an episode of the newsroom right now jordan can i did you did you end up uh just speaking of being fathers to sons, did you end up, I know that you had previously, you know, you had not been a father previously, but you had a sort of thing that you were going to try and do. I don't know if it, if you're. Yeah, Jesse. I got to get a son. I'm working on it. I'm working on it
Starting point is 00:53:05 I'm working on it he's working on it folks don't worry I gotta get a son news news news to me here's one of those calls
Starting point is 00:53:21 I don't know I don't know what I don't know. What are we, fucking Tiny Toon Adventures? Hey, Jordan, Jesse, and guests. This is Mike, currently living in Iowa. I'm calling for your longtime regular segment, That Makes Me Think and That Makes Me Think Of. On a recent show, you talked about an upscale ice cream shop with a dual premise of being women-owned and architecture-themed.
Starting point is 00:53:48 That makes me think that maybe when they were planning for this ice cream shop, they had a disagreement about what their thing should be, and they couldn't come to a compromise, so they just said, heck, let's just go with both. And that makes me think of a time in college when we all wanted to have a party, and we all decided it should be a theme party, but we couldn't come to an agreement on whether it should be a fruit and vegetable theme or a superhero theme party. So we went with both at the same time and it was a fruit and vegetable based superhero theme party. My friend Shannon was the mighty mater. I was the blueberry commando.
Starting point is 00:54:25 Great memories. Great show. Thank you. Love you guys. Bye. You know, college was a lot of fun. It was. Pretty wild. Don't you think? Living, laughing, learning, lunching. Loving. Loving, yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Lipton. Lipton, sure. Sorry guys, you know I gotta keep it brisk Great iced tea Blair did you do themed parties In college was there like Greek stuff and Yeah I went to a toga party I went to a toga party once
Starting point is 00:54:58 I wasn't a big I had a job in college where I worked Like overnight and so I couldn't Go to any parties I was working from like 1 a.m. to 10 a.m. So I couldn't like... Were you a night watchman? I was a... Have I told you this before? I was a hand model on a television,
Starting point is 00:55:15 on like a jewelry shopping network. I was... I think we have heard that you were a hand model, but I didn't know it was an overnight hand model. Yeah, I didn't have the hands for like prime time. So they put me on that for four years of my life. Laser off some of those warts and then we'll talk about 8 p.m. Blair, you and I both know that the reality of the situation is you were too edgy.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Your hands were too edgy. You were the kids in the hall of hand modeling. I mean, you see these? Right, 120 minutes. You were the Matt Penfield. They just didn't get me. But yeah, I went to a couple of parties. I went to parties.
Starting point is 00:55:53 Stop it. I went to parties. We didn't say you didn't go to parties. Jeez, you're as defensive as you matter at this than Jesse is about the fine Looney Tunes song. Went to a couple of parties. Now talk about you i will not our toga parties a real kind of jordan did you go to toga parties in college so yeah i
Starting point is 00:56:15 mean you know the uc santa cruz of it all there was no like actual that but there were people making fun of that so yeah i think i went to like an ironic toga party where it was like uh this is what meatheads would do you know like but they were doing it yeah so i think i did go to go to one or two of those where it was you know people who were above it kind of floating above it but doing it but yeah also still like trying to like get wasted so yeah like the theater department did a lot of like they did like prom they did like tacky prom every year and stuff like that
Starting point is 00:56:51 yeah it was cute and fun Jesse I've never been to a party it's just I don't know I just I always think I'd like to go to a party because I bet that I could meet somebody to talk about model trains with. Just what you're looking for is a rave.
Starting point is 00:57:13 You just need to be more specific. Ecstasy-fueled rave. Take some E and right when it hits, you start talking about your tunnels. You can't stop yourself from talking about model trains. Yeah. There's a part of me that feels like if I go to enough parties, I'll meet my model train match. But then we'll find out we're on different gauges. The caboose to your engine.
Starting point is 00:57:41 He's an O and I'm an HO. Well, now we can't talk anymore. I got to go to more engine. He's an O and I'm an HO. Well, now we can't talk anymore. I gotta go to more parties. This is the premise of a great J-Lo Owen Wilson movie. I swear to God he has a face double in that movie. Like, his face isn't always the same in the movie.
Starting point is 00:57:58 You'll see. You're gonna watch it after this pod. Owen Wilson's face changes? It changes in the movie. He has a face double and no one can convince me otherwise. I've been thinking about this movie all day. So I'm also extremely jet lagged. I apologize. Is it possible that Owen Wilson's character is also supposed to be that famous tricky
Starting point is 00:58:17 shapeshifter Loki? Ah, no, it's not. It's not possible. Yeah, you're right. That'd be kind of crazy. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to get shut that down right now. This is a cum heavy episode. It's not possible. Yeah, you're right. That'd be kind of crazy. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to shut that down right now. This is a cum-heavy episode.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Well, you know, it's about average for us. Can we have a cum here? Of a podcast or of this podcast? Yeah. Yeah. This would be a cummy episode for Radiolab, but not this. Well, I don't know. That show's got new hosts.

Yeah, are we getting hyper-specific with this ask now? Are we saying, okay, we still want powerhouse songs, but they can't just be about whatever you want they can't be a beautiful meditation on the plight of the worker like that one person did it can be pretty much whatever you want so it could be about any

Guy had joked that the owners of the largest nickel in Canada were anti-vax. It's a funny thing to say.

All right. have invited him over yeah you should never have done that all right well we we love sudbury ontario and we love the science north and dynamic earth museum lands or whatever and there's a big nickel on the side of the road that i guess yeah it's a roadside nickel we gotta go it's a canadian nickel though so god knows what size their regular ones even are.

Starting point is 01:06:14 probably stretches my relationship with him in the past. Acquaintance. I knew him. Jordan had invited him on the show because he was dating Jordan's mom. And I agreed skeptically. It turns out I was right to be skeptical and I apologize for Jordan's decision and for my relationship with my former relationship with Guy as acquaintances that Jordan introduced because Guy had just been around the house a lot, dating Jordan's mom. Rest in peace, Guy. All right.
