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 Goh. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart. Jordan Morris debuting new nickname very soon. Oh wait, not right now? Well, it's got a story. Okay. It's got a yarn behind it.
Starting point is 00:00:25 A tail. Usually what we do is rather than telling each other whether we have anything to talk about on the show beforehand, we'll kind of horn it into, we'll square peg and around hole it into the nickname so that we can indicate to each other there's something we should cover before we get into whatever other bullshit. Man, don't tell them how the sausage is made. And, of course, you have to freeze the meat slightly. Yeah. Come on. Dude, don't.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Don't. Our secrets. The grinder on the stand mixer isn't going to be able to- Don't listen to them, folks. That's not how sausage is made. Do you want to? i do have a story i did receive a fucking dynamite new nickname okay a few days ago do you want to introduce our guest and i can spin the arm because i think he i think he'll have thoughts about it yeah our guest is a brilliant uh actor writer improviser, and musician.
Starting point is 00:01:28 He's a celebrity in the world of comedy. Please welcome John Daly. Thank you. Not the world at large. Just want to make that absolutely crystal clear. Not map making or military history. God, I wish I was a cartographer. You know, I've been going to the flea market every- I wish I was a cartographer. I've been going to the flea market every Sunday
Starting point is 00:01:49 for 10 years. I don't know. I got all these flea market friends, which is one of the best kinds of friends you could possibly have. You don't have to worry about feeling... Oh, God, yes.
Starting point is 00:02:04 I'd go over to somebody's house to go through the shit that they can't sell to see if there's anything that I could sell. Yeah, that's a great that's a great joy. I mean, I know what you mean, because there is that old saying the best friends are friends with a musky odor. Yeah. And that's why. And everyone's watching them. Marie Kondo. So they're they're taking out the trash oh
Starting point is 00:02:26 that's right i have heard that that uh that the thrift store flea market scene is experiencing a little bit of a boom because everybody's condoing everybody watching the netflix condo show but they're all things that make you sad oh sure super sad flea market. Like, it brings no joy. Have you noticed an influx in sadness in the flea market? It would be very difficult to identify because the flea market, even at its happiest, shares many of the signifiers of extraordinary sadness. Yeah. Such as being surrounded by garbage, wearing clothes that don't look washed, giving yourself a haircut. These are all flea markets. Trying to get rid of items that belonged to a dead loved one.
Starting point is 00:03:13 Yeah. Yeah. State sales are very dark. The recently dead. These are all characteristic of the flea market and also of sad. Now, I'm not saying that everyone at the flea market is sad. In fact, I love the people at the flea market. I think they're the greatest.
Starting point is 00:03:27 My experience of flea markets is like puffy white socks and like new kids on the block CDs. You're looking more at a swap meet, John. That is a swap meet. Yeah, yeah. That is more like a swap meet. Yeah. If you're buying tube socks and bootleg cassettes. Right.
Starting point is 00:03:41 But my childhood flea markets were maybe swap meet. But they were outside and- I want to give a special shout out to the copy of the Bodyguard soundtrack that I bought on bootleg cassette at the Ashby Flea Market in Berkeley. Nice. Wow.
Starting point is 00:03:55 It's a great soundtrack. There's no Romeo plus Juliet. There was an article- We're talking classic soundtracks. There was an article about me. I have no cachet as an antiques dealer. I don't have much to offer people. The person with
Starting point is 00:04:10 cachet is a guy who has expertise about a weird thing and you can go and ask him, is this worth anything? The guy in the crazy suit on Antiques Roadshow. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. The creepy twins. You're talking about Nicholas Lowry. Yeah. The poster expert. Or the creepy twins. Yeah. They poster expert. Or the creepy twins.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Yeah. They're not on the road show anymore, but yeah. No? Oh, yeah? Me too? They get canceled? Both twins canceled. You're canceled.
Starting point is 00:04:34 For totally different reasons. One was jacking off in public. And the other one came. Right. One jacks off, the other one comes. I bet twins. That's how twins work. Wait, I don't know these people.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Why are they creepier? Are they like the... I'm picturing the twins in The Shining. You know what? They're probably lovely. They're just like these blonde twins. Part of their shtick is like, we're twins and we talk the same. They have kind of a shtick basically as antiques dealers.
Starting point is 00:05:05 They're kind of like if there were twins on the Antiques Roadshow who were both an Andy Daly character. Right. Is how I would care. Yeah. Yeah. They do a great job. They're very popular. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:16 You know those dudes jack off in public though. Yeah. They've got a weird sex thing. Yeah. It manifests itself in private so far. Yeah. They can only come on an 18th century carousel. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:28 While they're riding on it. They specialize in American furniture, but yeah, go ahead. What this old lady doesn't know is I came all over this Tiffany land. A little aside. This thing is frosted. But anyway, so I have no cachet in this world and i've been i've been talking to these people for 10 years you know what i mean the people that i see you see the same people every week uh you know some people do some of the shows some people don't do others of the shows you know
Starting point is 00:05:58 how are you doing how's it going on whatever no interest or recognition for many, many years or any – I had no prestige in the world. But then one of them got hold of an article about me in the Los Angeles Times. And now for, I'm going to say, five people I know at the flea market, I'm the biggest celebrity that has ever been to the flea market. Do they call you Hollywood? Hey, Hollywood! The other 500 people continue to have
Starting point is 00:06:30 no interest in me because I do not know what their stifes are worth. Right. But, yeah, I recently became... I imagine. Well, maybe you gotta
Starting point is 00:06:38 bring better stuff, man. It was like no one... Yeah, bring some better stuff, dude. I gained no... Your shit's got all that cum on it. At least wipe off the cum,
Starting point is 00:06:46 baby. Especially the electronics. The cum is supposed to be... Yeah, nobody wants a cummy Blu-ray player. That's supposed to be what makes it valuable, though. You can get a regular... You can just go to Best Buy and get a Blu-ray player for $39. Doesn't have any cum on it, though.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Ladies, don't sit on these. You may get pregnant. In some kind of Sea Monkeys reanimation of Seaman. Ladies don't sit on these Blu-ray players. Well, it's both a Sea Monkeys seminal reanimation and a scenario in which they're using their Blu-ray player as a chair. Now, before I sell you this Blu-ray player as a chair. Now, before I sell you this Blu-ray player, I have to let you know. Don't sit on it. Look, these are flea market people. Sure.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Yeah. I bet there's – They get pregnant, but it turns out they're just brine shrimp. Sure. Human science. They don't actually wear little crowns. Just disappointing. The baby's born.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Little crowns. Yeah. Just disappointing. The baby's born. I mean, I think probably people who are flea market regulars are still people to whom print journalism is still very important. These people still read the newspaper. I think that's what it is because I thought – I had never been covered in the Los Angeles Times. We live in Los Angeles. Show business is based in – I'm like, this is going to open doors.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah. This is – I'm like, this is going to open doors. Yeah. This is – I'm going to get a call from Brian Grazer asking me to one of his famous unpaid consulting lunches. Just giving him free ideas? Yeah, he goes to lunch with an unpaid genius each day So he can steal their ideas to steal their mind. But, uh, yeah, but the effect,
Starting point is 00:08:29 and I, my, my mom didn't care. Like no one in my family cared. No one here in the office cared. No one that I knew from comedy cared, but it made its hands into one woman's hands. She's a cool lady named Terry.
Starting point is 00:08:43 And Terry made, sounds pretty flea market. I think Terry made a couple. I's a cool lady named Terry. And Terry made copies for her. Sounds pretty flea market. I think Terry made a couple. I'm a cool lady named Terry. Terry made copies for a couple other people, and they were very excited about it. You know what you got to do, though? What's that?
Starting point is 00:08:54 Laminate that sucker. Post it. Laminate it. Blow it up. Laminate it. Post it. Then everyone knows there's no discussion. Should I put it on like a t-shirt
Starting point is 00:09:05 or on a cart that i pull like those guys who say like i buy model trains wear a t-shirt yes i buy model trains and you know what this is great actually because after you laminate it you can come on it yeah yeah as much as much as you want yeah that will help with the animation suspended animation process too it'll keep it clean. Sure. Look, if you're not jerking off to newspaper clippings about articles, what are you jerking off to? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Yeah. Yeah. Auto trader. I have mentioned this before on the show, but, you know, of all of my entertainment accomplishments, of which there are few. There are some. Some. I would say of which there are some. Some.

Starting point is 00:10:24 Really? Yeah. Yeah. It's neat. The gift that keeps on giving. You were on Scandal and your character is not dead, so he could come back anytime. I think that show's canceled, though. Oh.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Is it? I don't know. That's a scandal. Yeah. Thank you. Are you pitching a reboot based on the tabloid publisher? Yeah. Tabloid publisher who is off camera for most of his lines.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Yeah. Oh, you're a tabloid publisher? Yeah. So you're Richard tabloid publisher? Yeah. So you're Richard, what's the National Enquirer guy's name? I think I am that guy. His name is David Pecker, right? Oh my God. Yeah, I was John Crank.
Starting point is 00:10:56 John Crank, oh my God. I don't think I had a name. I think I was just, I think I was Sleazy Tabloid Reporter was my name in the script. Wow. Did you make people call you that on set? Like in a method actor kind of way? I did. Excuse me, my name was Sleazy Tabloid Reporter was my name in the script. Wow.

Starting point is 00:11:08 My name is Sleazy. Yeah. And I was like, can we make this quick? I got a deadline for my tabloid. Jordan, you're best friends with NBC4's Fritz Coleman. Well, that's what I was about to bring up. Okay. Is that, you know, given my showbiz accomplishments, the one my mom is the most proud of is the local weather commercial I did for $100 where I asked NBC4's Fritz Coleman where the best waves were, dude. Did they really give you $100?
Starting point is 00:11:36 They did. How old was it that they should give you $200? Well, you know. Did you have to audition for it? No, I did not. Oh, okay. Well, I do anything for $100. Offer only.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Offer only $100 only. Yeah. I think a- No more, no less. I think the guy who was making them had seen an improv show that I was in. Right. Oh, also in that same casting roundup, former Jordan Jessica, I guess Ryan Perez, who maybe you know from around.
Starting point is 00:12:01 The best. He's the best. The funniest. He's also in those. Yeah. Did you get picked? How did you get picked? Sorry.
Starting point is 00:12:09 I think this guy came to see an improv group that Ryan and I were both in. Wow. He was like, give me those young hunks. So that's how he kind of started grooming you? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yes, exactly. Hey, you're really funny.
Starting point is 00:12:20 You get really funny. Oh, you're great. Come be in my weather commercials. Meet Fritz. 100itz. I have a standing desk. You will feel dirty after this. But that is the thing that my mom is the most
Starting point is 00:12:34 proud of, is those weather commercials, because I think all of her friends saw them, and oh my god, is that your son? Oh my god, is that your son? And it's just kind of audience specific. It's like like you know to to uh you know to a to a nurse you the most famous person is a person who appears on the local news right because the local news is on tv in the hospital 24 7 so anyway yeah the surgeon general you just got to find your audience, I think is the lesson.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Yeah. Well, your mom has to find – you have to find your mom's audience. Right. That's the one thing that hits it. Yeah. Yeah. I got to get on The Good Wife. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:16 If I'm on The Good Wife or Downton Abbey, then that will supplant. Yeah. That will supplant the weather commercial in my mom's heart. If I ever – I got to get on to Al Sharpton's MSsnbc msnbc show you can do that i gotta get on to father brown mysteries definitely maybe i can replace father brown oh yeah yeah you got a little brown in you yeah father green honestly yours is the first one that sounds like a really great job. Yeah. Oh, that would be great. It would be awesome to get cast on that. What is this? Before I solve this crime, first to crump it. It's uncanny.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Am I sitting here with Father Brown? Hello. It is. Father Brown. Do you guys want to hear about my new nickname? Yeah. So I was at a bar a few days ago, and I was standing by myself perfectly still. This is important to the story were you entirely painted gold yes i was i i was at i was a i was an oscar i was at an oscar
Starting point is 00:14:14 party was the bar at chicago's navy pier i don't understand what you're talking about you know what i'm talking about like oh like those guys that Yeah, those robot men who scare you and then ask for money. Yeah. No, I was not being. So I was there. I was there with a friend. I'm not just going to bars and standing still by myself. My friend was in the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:14:34 By the way, I would just like to take credit for having said Chicago's Navy Pier and not the Grove. I don't think there's Robot Man at the Grove. I don't think there is either. Or Union Square. There's a Union Square. There's some Central Park. There's a lot of. Yeah. Where's the prime place to see a Robot Man at the Grove. I don't think there is either. Or Union Square. There's a Union Square. There's some Central Park. There's a lot of-
Starting point is 00:14:46 Yeah. What's the prime place to see a Robot Man? My first instinct was a Pier 39 in San Francisco, but look, we all know from grabbing Red Reddit that I talk about- South Street Seaport. I talk about San Francisco too much, so let's go with South Street Seaport. Sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:02 A great reference. Those guys always, yeah. These are all- They do scare you and then they're like, pay me. Sure, yeah. I smell horrible, pay me. Metallic paint on that is flammable. I know, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Yes, this paint has fried my brain. So my eyes look weird. I got cast in a local television commercial in San Francisco that wasn't on television. It was an interactive web commercial of some kind. Where they paid me $300 to jump out from behind bushes. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:32 It was horrible. It was like the worst job I've ever had in my life. Yeah. Go ahead, Jordan. So I'm standing still by myself. You've got the thing that goes... No, I'm not being a robot, man. I'm socializing. You've got your boom that goes. No, I'm not. I'm not being a robot, man. I'm socializing.
Starting point is 00:15:47 You've got your boombox. I'm not on the clock. Sorry, ghetto blast. So you're stock still in a bar. And why is that? That's weird, too. Well, I'm. Somebody puts it down.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Are you in your basket? I'm not that I had a friend I was talking to. And the friend was in the bathroom. So what am I supposed to be doing? Oh, OK. So the euronic starts playing. I'm there to socialize. Right, right. OK, so you're stock still. okay. So the electronic starts playing. I'm there to socialize. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Okay, so you're stock still. Yes. Still stiff as a board. Yeah. And a man kind of dances up to me. And I could tell by- Is this a bar, like a dancing situation? Not really.
Starting point is 00:16:21 They're blasting some tunes. And it's lively in there. But there's not like a dance floor. He's kind of having some fun. Do you remember what was playing? That'll enter into it. Okay, great. I'll get to that.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Great. But yes, I do. This guy dances, so this is like maybe a 50-year-old guy motorcycle jacket with some sewn-on patches. Sure. Not like punk or metal patches, but like Bugatti patches. Right. Cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Excellent. So he kind of... Maybe he's sponsored. Yeah, could be. He's got to wear the jacket when he's out. He's always got to be drinking Bugatti brand energy drink in case the paparazzi catches him. He kind of dances up to me.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Those Alfa Romeo assholes. I know. Fuck them. He leans in and he's like, Hey, troublemaker. And then dances off. And then I'm... Hey, troublemaker.
Starting point is 00:17:22 So I'm thinking, why did this happen? Yeah. So, I mean, and it's- Was it a flirt? Was he like, hey, troublemaker? I don't think so. I think it was a bro down. Although, I don't know signals.
Starting point is 00:17:36 I sometimes am a little oblivious when it comes to that stuff. Well, it's flirtatious no matter what. I was clocking it as a bro down. Right, okay. Could have been wrong. I think a bro down flirtation, okay. Could have been wrong. I think a bro down flirtation is a thing. Yeah, definitely like, yeah, that's a flirtation.
Starting point is 00:17:53 If you're going, hey, troublemaker, it doesn't matter what your intention is. You're flirting with this guy. Sure. Yeah. So I'm like going over in my head what just happened, kind of wondering, hey, troublemaker. Oh, it's so weird. And I'm like, does this guy recognize me? I'm like, from fucking what, though? What have I done that this guy, I don't know, I guess I sometimes eat gross food on a popular YouTube channel.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Maybe that's it. Maybe his kids watch it. I don't know. This guy definitely is like, oh shit. There's Cotton Candy Randy. Right, exactly. Could be. Could be. So I'm trying to figure it out. And then he kind of dances back toward the bar
Starting point is 00:18:33 and he leans in and he goes, how's it hanging, troublemaker? To you again? To me again. How's it hanging, troublemaker? This is, wow. And then a third time comes back and he stands right in front of me and locks eyes with me and starts to play air guitar to the song that's on which is dream on by aerosmith so he's doing a very and i could tell
Starting point is 00:18:59 by maybe his fingering that he maybe actually plays guitar. Right. He's like, he's purposefully and he looks like the kind of man who can play Dream On on the guitar. Cool. Another plus. And so I say, hey man, cool hair guitar. And he's like, nah dude, it's a soul guitar.
Starting point is 00:19:19 And then he leaves and I don't see him for the rest of the night. Anyway. He's playing his own soul. Yeah. Wow, that's pretty cool. The soul guitar. My soul pops out in the shape of a guitar. It's possible that he's playing someone else's soul that he stole.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Yeah. Or one in a bat. Yeah, yeah. John, I knew. Mr. Bugatti. And I knew you were coming in. And all I could think of for the rest of the night is I just met a John Daly character.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Like that seems like a guy you would play in something. Hey troublemaker. Yeah that sounds yeah. You can't write that. I was thinking like
Starting point is 00:19:53 that's insane. That would just be like what is this? Yeah. Stuff is just so and people are insane. He was like I'm going to pull a troublemaker.
Starting point is 00:20:00 I wonder if he does it a lot. John I watched a short film in which you starred as one of those guys that sells you a suit with a shirt and a tie and a belt and shoes. Yes, yes. For $99. Right, right, yeah. And it's so –
Starting point is 00:20:17 It's called Men. It so deeply upset me. Oh, thank you. Yeah. It's pretty upsetting. I don't think I can even look at a belt that matches shoes anymore. There's a lot of negative
Starting point is 00:20:29 close-ups. There's just very cursed close-ups of awful men's clothing in there. It's really intense. Yeah. Oh, thanks. Yeah. Okay. It's also very funny. I want to be clear. It's called Men. It's on superlux.com. I think still. They closed as a company, but I think it's still up on that.
Starting point is 00:20:47 A second time. Yes. Yes. I think so. Yeah. Or definitely. They definitely did. Yeah. John, I wanted to ask you about a music show that I saw you do. Yes. Which was fucking hilarious. Thank you so much. You have a new music project? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Yeah. music project yeah yeah um i'm doing uh yeah i'm doing this album of songs and um it's all different comedy songs and the common thread is every song has a sax solo i play saxophone and so every song that if it's a trap song or if it's a country song or whatever it's got a sax solo yeah and um yeah so i'm making this album, putting out all these songs and doing a residency at the Satellite. And then you saw me on tour, right, with Man Man? Yeah. So I – and I was telling Jesse about this, and he's like, can John Daly play the saxophone? And I was like, dude can blow.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Thank you. Thank you. Have you played it since you were a kid? Since I was eight. Okay. Yeah. Like in school band and shit like that? In band.
Starting point is 00:21:42 Never in bands, but in band. Do you never, literally never? I mean, you didn't even play in like a ska band in 1998? No, I was like anti-ska. I hated ska. And now I have since then, I was on a TV show called Those Who Can't. It was really funny. And I'm in the series finale, I think, as, yes, as a ska musician.
Starting point is 00:22:05 So I got to play a ska singer, and I got to tell you, I was like, damn, this is fun. And my backup band was the Aquabats, who were an amazing band, right? And I was just like, I am fully on board with this. No, I was just acting. I had creepers on. I was, like, acting, you know, like a ska dude.
Starting point is 00:22:25 What was your costume? So creepers, that track. Creepers. I think it was a sleeveless vest, like jean vest or something like that. Yep. And then like black spiked hair, like dyed black spiked hair, very, you know, dark. And then I think at some point I had a fedora. Yep.
Starting point is 00:22:46 And I had like, it was like a vest, but with a tie. And then I think at some point I had a fedora and I had like, it was like a, a vest, but with a tie and, uh, yeah. And then like, why forget the, the pants,
Starting point is 00:22:54 but like, you know, very on brand for ska kind of, kind of pants. I feel like I got to learn one of the Aquabats songs and like do it with them. And I was just like, this is a fucking exhilarating.
Starting point is 00:23:05 I feel like ska is like musical theater in that reasonable people can disagree whether it's a fun thing to watch yeah or listen to i think you know there are people who fall on every side of that i have a song on my album about ska but there's bring back ska it's not is it a ska song yeah oh cool okay there's no wave ska in both cases i think we can all agree the best way in in both cases no fucking question that it's like one of the funnest things to do yeah oh like i've never played with a ska band but like if somebody said to me right now would you like to be in my ska band i'd be like yeah sounds fun yeah i was like in high school i was definitely like ice cold like indie rock i wanted you know like fugazi and like hard i was tried to be very fancied
Starting point is 00:23:51 myself at least very hardcore and then i realized in college that i missed out on prints and like so much music you know i was kind of closing myself off to by being into guided by voices i guess vaguely but also like loving Billy Joel secretly and like listening to Jimmy Buffett up until like 10th grade. And then, yeah, and just being a dork and listening to Ween and stuff like that. And then, yeah, yeah. I expanded my musical vocabulary past that,
Starting point is 00:24:18 but I definitely missed out on ska and would have had so much fun in a ska band. Did you practice playing your saxophone between when you stopped school banding and today? Well, I actually stopped. I kind of was in jazz band in high school for a second, and then I stopped and joined choir because I wanted to sing. And that was better.
Starting point is 00:24:40 But then in college, and I hate it. I mean, it would be terrible not to share it. Yeah, exactly. And my sax, I put it away, put it back in the case. I cased it, gathered some dust. But then I never really enjoyed it until college when I like would rent out or just like sign out a practice room and go in there and just like practice scales and try and improvise. And then I was like, wow. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:25:03 I can actually kind of make this sound good. And I'm not good, but I can make it. You can fake saxophone. improvise and then i was like wow oh wow i can actually kind of make this sound good and i'm not good but i can make it you can fake saxophone and there's like i can make a great i can make a great sound come out of it yeah but i'm not necessarily in complete control so i'm not i'm an amateur sax player but i'm pretty good you sell it too yeah exactly it's all about it's about the songs it's comedy comedy. It's good enough for, yeah. And I, it was so interesting. So I saw you open for Man Man, who are, who are like a kind of a funny band, but also
Starting point is 00:25:32 probably they're, they're, they're further from comedy band and closer to legitimate indie rock. Right, right. And. They have a sense of humor, but they're definitely just like a indie rock band. Yeah. And I think that probably like a lot of guys who like technical music like them like like you know they're like incredible yeah right exactly i think if you like complicated like bass playing yeah you're a fan of man man
Starting point is 00:25:54 yeah and the horn section and everything yeah they're great um they were recommended to me by jaco pastorius so what's that mean it's a complicated bass player. Oh, okay. Yeah. Fun. Complicated mentally and his voice. Very complicated bass. She's a complicated man. Yeah, go ahead. It's like, what is he thinking? Why won't he text me back? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:26:43 See if anyone notices, bro. Love you, Bill. Keep saying the N-word every three years. See if anyone notices, bro. And you go up there and do a song called I'm Eating Pussy with DJ Khaled. I don't know if that's the title of the song. That's the name of the song, I'm Eating Pussy with DJ Khaled. It's the refrain. Well, he came out like four months ago and was like, I don't eat pussy.
Starting point is 00:27:02 I don't eat my girlfriend's pussy. Right. It's just what the fuck – why would you say that? Like everyone knows your girlfriend. It's disgusting. Like it's super weird. And what is sex? A one-way street with your big deep belly button?
Starting point is 00:27:15 Disgusting man. You think it's pleasant? Anyway, go ahead. No, but I mean I think in that led – and I was interested in this story too of DJ Khaled coming out as not eating pussy. Because it contained – perhaps it caused perhaps the greatest internet moment of all time. And I think the headline or something was, you know, I don't eat pussy because it's not fit for a king or something. He was referring to himself as a king. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:42 And then the Smash Mouth Twitter account retweeted this with the caption, a king who doesn't is no king at all. Oh, man. And it was so fucking great. Smash Mouth takes the high road. Yeah, exactly. And the low road, apparently. When he doesn't go low, we go high. Right, exactly.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Smash Mouth was breaking San Francisco Giants news on Twitter last week. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Smash Mouth Twitter account. So they're connected? They have some kind of connect? Yeah, they got their hook up. They're from San Jose.
Starting point is 00:28:09 So, you know, they're plugged in. So it's not just tour dates. Exactly. It's also content. And this guy's about breeding pussy. These guys live in big fat McMansions in San Jose. They're like, get off my lawn. All-star.
Starting point is 00:28:23 Shut up. Quiet. I'm eating pussy. Shut up. Quiet. I'm eating pussy. I'm eating pussy. I am devouring. I'm rubbing my goatee on a clitoris. Can you imagine that little goatee? Scraping up, scraping up.
Starting point is 00:28:35 Yeah. I wonder if he makes the shape of an L on his forehead when he's licking that. With his finger and his thumb. That's good. There's a lot of Smash Mouth push eating jokes finger and his thumb. Yeah. That's good. There's a lot of Smash Mouth push eating jokes. They're fun. Yeah. Very good.
Starting point is 00:28:51 Anyway. Oh, but like, and I'm like, fucking this dude is singing this eating pussy about DJ Khaled song in front of a pretty serious indie rock audience. Yeah. I thought it was great. Oh, good. What is it like when you're on tour with a musician's musician band doing pussy eating material? It's a country song, too, by the way.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Well, their fans, first of all, are legion, and they come out in droves, and they're like weirdos and they paint their faces white and they are intense yeah um and it's great yeah painting faces white sounds fucking great it's great what a fucking great fan thing to do yeah and there are just like man there are people dress like ryan it's like the dorkiest thing in the history of the world but like the effect must be super cool when you look at the crowd, you're like, Jesus. People with white painted faces. That's going to be crazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Yeah. It's like, that's like going to an amazing art opening. Yeah. Oh yeah. Totally. Yeah. It's a, it's a very art, art oriented thing. Um, but, uh, yeah, so it works out great.
Starting point is 00:29:59 You know, um, there's a, maybe some crossover, some people I'm sure are just like, what is this? But it went really great. We went to like, you know, San Diego and Petaluma and Santa Barbara. There was one show, I forget where it was, that was kind of like, all right, fuck you. It was just like, and the people were like, just, it was Reno, wasn't it? I wish it was Renono i wish i would love to play reno no i won't say the name i won't say the name it wasn't petaluma though was it visalia i know but that's a great reading no needles blink twice if it was vallejo yeah my
Starting point is 00:30:40 tiny toy yeah vallejo downy um So, yeah, it was fantastic. Porterville. Basically, yeah. It worked great. It was great, yeah. Yeah. Rancho Cucamonga. God, I wish.
Starting point is 00:30:52 What a fun thing to say. Oh, yeah. What's up, Cucamonga? Ranch Cuc. Ranch Cuc. Do you think the guys who live there call it Ranch Cuc? I think they call it R-Cuc. R-Cuc.
Starting point is 00:31:02 R-Munga. R-Cuc. R-Munga. Rep R-Munga. R-Cook. R-Munga. Rep R-Munga. Guys, you want to hit the Mung this weekend? You guys want to head back to R-C? Yeah, because it is a lot. And it's a lot.
Starting point is 00:31:15 You have a lot of different genres as well. You mentioned trap music. I don't think you played the Ska song. No, I did not. Yeah. That is, yeah, it's still in the works sure but yeah i've it's um all different kinds of songs i also write wrote a really personal song that's like a five minute long song cycle about my family about the dailies yeah about the dailies exactly um and
Starting point is 00:31:38 my brothers came out in december and played it with me on stage and it made me cry and it was lovely. And yeah, I made a song with Colleen Green, who's a great rock and roll star here in LA. And she does my live show a lot at the Satellite and we'll play, we wrote a song together and then she plays her own stuff. When you're composing, are you composing mostly on saxophone? No, I'm doing it on actually just my phone recorder just do it i kind of like compose something play the saxophone into the phone recorder no i don't really think of songs with the sax i just think of like little bits of songs and sing it out or write it or something and then i'm usually kind of going like sometimes it's like retro Sometimes it is a saxophone genre.
Starting point is 00:32:28 What are the top saxophone genres? Top three. Bruce Springsteen. Bruce Springsteen. M83. And Sade. Sure. And yeah, there's other stuff. But sometimes I do like a Highwaymen song, like Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard.
Starting point is 00:32:44 And then wedge saxophone into that and it sounds great. It does work in a lot of different stuff. And also I've got kind of a Kraftwerke kind of song and we just do an electric sax solo on that. That feels like that makes a ton of sense. Yeah. I'm ready for electric sax solos and Kraftwerke type songs. Oh, yeah, definitely. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:06 It's some crisp, clean music. If you ever want to do like a weather report, fusion jazz kind of thing. That's difficult. I can give you Jocko Pastore's list number. May he rest in peace. Why do you pretend he's alive? And Jocko, I know you've read it. I can see when you've read the text. And don't tweet. If you haven't textedocko, I know you've read it. I can see when you've read the text.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Yeah. And don't tweet. If you haven't texted me back, I know you're not busy. He went up to Miles Davis and said, hey, Miles, I'm the best bass player in the world. Jocko Pastore. I'm Jocko. I'm the best bass player in the world. Miles Davis was like, all right.
Starting point is 00:33:37 And like a week later, he was in his band. He was like, okay, you win. You are the best bass player in the world. That's a cool jazz story. It's cool. Yeah. The Jocko Pastore is, what's it called? it called biopic or no i wish it was a biopic i love biopics um uh documentary so the um behind the music so the smash mouth twitter account is breaking baseball
Starting point is 00:33:56 news but we're um highlighting jazz tales you know what this is a useful podcast i'm pretty sure john daly just told us a cool jazz story about cool jazz. Wait, somebody told me that this was just jiving. Oh, no. Just jiving. Wait, are we supposed to get into some serious stuff or are we just jiving out? No, in this same booth on Monday nights, just jiving records. So I think he just probably fucked up your calendar.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Oh, man. All right. Well, I'll come back and we'll just switch the times if that's okay. But we do host it, but we do glue on goatees. We do host it. Did you notice the beret under your seat? Yeah. Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:34:37 I got to put that on. No, it's for tomorrow. For the home radio audience, I'm putting on a beret. It looks really cool. Again, that's for tomorrow. Okay, cool. This is Jordan Jesse Go. tomorrow. Okay, cool. This is Jordan, Jesse, go. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:46 Okay, cool. So this show is mostly Jaco Pastorius stuff. But the rest of the jazz stuff is on Just Jivin' tomorrow. Good. Okay, good. Yeah, so Jaco was a visionary. He would play two melodies at the same time and two different time signatures. Can I be clear?
Starting point is 00:35:04 When I say that this show is mostly Jacoo, just saying the words Jocko Pastore is not really giving any insight into who he is or any context for those words. Yeah. That's stuff you should say for tomorrow. Yeah. You know, Jocko is, it's Bulgarian for pasteurizing piss. Pastore. Pastore. I messed that up, but it was funny. I think it worked. for pasteurizing piss. Castoria. Pistoria. I messed that up, but it was funny.
Starting point is 00:35:29 I think it worked. The concept was funny, but only in a way. It would work way better on just jiving, but what are you going to do? It's fine. Anyway, we're not doing Jocko tomorrow. We're doing Ayrton Moreira tomorrow. Oh, fascinating. Wow. You can bring someyrton Morera tomorrow. Oh, fascinating.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Wow. So get your, you can bring some weird. Sorry about the cross wires, dude. Yeah. Anyway, well, this is a great day because this

Starting point is 00:36:00 definitely fall back. I'm like dreading the day. But this was the first time in a while when spring forward happened just by like looking at my – I was like, oh, my God. It's going to stay late. Like when I was driving here, I was like, this is fantastic.

Starting point is 00:45:56 Motel 6. He's a weirdo. He's got the meth pipe. Motel 69, right? Oh, come on. Probably not a meth pipe. If he's lucky. Probably not a meth pipe.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Just a clean, comfortable room. Yeah. She tries to go down on him. He's like, come on. Probably not a meth pipe. If he's lucky. Probably not a meth pipe, just a clean, comfortable room. Yeah, she tries to go down on him. He's like, no thanks. This is about you, baby. I'm here for your pleasure. It's me, Tom Bodette. We'll leave. We'll turn the lights off.
Starting point is 00:46:19 I have an NPR show, guys. Cool. Come on. What's that like? We're keeping it clean. Yeah. We're keeping it on. What's that like? We're keeping it clean. Yeah. We're keeping it lean. This is complimentary.
Starting point is 00:46:27 And we're keeping it clean. All right. What's next? We're complimenting Tom Bodette. I think pussy eating is a positive. It's definitely. First of all, first of all, we want to take this opportunity to acknowledge that we, along with the rest of the world this week, learned that Alex Trebek is seriously ill.
Starting point is 00:46:46 We love Alex Trebek. Absolutely. Just as everyone else does. We do not take responsibility for this. It's not our fault. And we feel bad about it. In case it might be our fault. Since we've been talking a lot about Jeopardy.
Starting point is 00:47:00 We have a Jeopardy-related tally going on, John, for you and maybe people who are tuning in for the first time. Yeah. We wanted to see how many— And have somehow made it this far into the show. Like, I like it so far. Tom Bodette stuff was strong. Think about coming on the Blu-ray player. That was good.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Well, I use Blu-ray players as a chair. This joke made perfect sense to me. Well, you're a guy. It doesn't matter. You can sit on it all you want to-ray players as a chair. This joke makes perfect sense to me. Well, you're a guy. It doesn't matter. Yeah, you can sit on it all you want to, baby. Make a nest. Get that cum up your butt. And then watch some special features that are included on your Blu-ray.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Mary Poppins, too. I hope those menus are interactive, Jordan. Love an interactive menu. Is there a trivia game? That's my dream. Okay, so last week on the program, we asked our listeners to call in if they had a Fez. And our goal was to find out if we have more listeners who have been on Jeopardy or more listeners who have a Fez. Now, I want to be clear.
Starting point is 00:48:02 I specifically excluded shitty costume store Fez's. Right. The two types of Fez that are acceptable are, number one, a real Shriner Fez or, number two, a real North African Fez. These are the two categories. These are the two categories. Both real types of, I mean, one, a borderline racist insulting weird cultural appropriation. But both are real Fezzes. Like a Shriner one is cultural appropriation.
Starting point is 00:48:36 That's the weird cultural appropriation one. Right. Yeah. But it's so old and weird that it seems like its own culture. Yeah, it does. Yeah. You have a Fezz yourself, John. I own a Fezz.
Starting point is 00:48:46 Yeah, we were talking before the show. I own a fez. Was it part of your costume as a ska singer? No. Do ska people wear fez? No, I would say that's more of an ultra lounge singer. Sure. Yeah, yeah. They're more beanies.
Starting point is 00:48:58 There is a segment of ska that you would wear that. There's a bim skala bim. Maybe that's some stuff that's more loungy. Good God. I forgot about that. I know about all the subsections of that stuff. Yeah. They probably do a Ska version of Midnight at the Oasis.
Starting point is 00:49:12 You know they do. Yeah. I'm not going to do it. Come on, John. Do it. Honestly, I imagined it and it sounded fun. Yeah. You know what?
Starting point is 00:49:22 It would be a big hit. It would be like Weezer covering many songs. Sure. We all love that. Yes. But what was the thing? Oh, yeah. I have a fez that is a full-on Shriner's fez, and it says something that feels ancient and has a scimitar on it.
Starting point is 00:49:34 I thought it was cool. At some thrift store, and I got it, and it's kind of like in my costume, large trunk thing. Or maybe one of my many plastic bins. But then I have a weird, not fez, but it is a Robin Hood. I can describe it. It's like a Robin Hood. It's like the era of Shriners clothing, but it is a so weird. It's like a pointy green Robin Hood hat.
Starting point is 00:50:02 So there was some Shriners-esque super weird thing that wore these like smart little hats. It was a very strange thing. But those are the two like weird hats. We're a men's group. Yeah. We're the merry men. Yes, we're the merry men. And we pick up litter on the side of the highway and march in parades.
Starting point is 00:50:17 Yeah. I'm a Rotarian. I don't do any of that silly stuff. We wear tricorn hats. Right. Right. Yeah. Dignified tricorn hats. Right, right. Yeah, dignified tricorn hats. Yep.
Starting point is 00:50:29 And I'm in Smash Mouth, which is another popular men's group. Brian, what did it end up being? What is our current total of Jeopardy! contestants who listen to Jordan Jessica? So as of last week, it was 18, and we added two more this week. So we're at 20 Jeopardy. Pretty good. A couple of people were busy. They got behind.
Starting point is 00:50:50 They were busy memorizing almanacs. How many winners, because that's what I count as a Jeopardy participant. I don't care about the losers. There's one four-time champ. How about Kenny Jenny, baby? He hasn't called in yet. I'm sure he's a fan. He's got to be a fan.
Starting point is 00:51:07 KJ? KJ. KJ loves to goof around. JJ and KJ. JJ and KJ. Perfect. A match made in heaven. KJ, go.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Okay, so 20 total Jeopardy! contestants. That's pretty good. Yeah. Now, what can you tell us about the response to our call for Fez owners? Was it overwhelming? How did it go? Can I tell you something here? This is a piece of information that I learned on Twitter that really threw off all our calculations, I think.
Starting point is 00:51:43 We learned that one of the Doctor Whos sometimes wears a fez. Right. So we probably have, I mean, I think we have probably have a lot of Who fans. Yeah. And so probably there's more fezes because of people. They're called Hoovers. Hoovers. Right, Hoovervilles.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Hoovervilles. They're a space shantytown erected during the Great Depression. They're just into that one Doctor Who with the fez. Yeah. So there is the one Doctor – so I probably – I would love a Hoovertown of just people who used to play Doctor Who and now want their pension. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:19 Yeah. So we probably – probably a lot of the people who own the Fez in the audience probably have it for Who Dress Up related events. Yeah. I was thinking we would have some people who were Gen Xers who were into 50s and 60s Americana kitsch. I figured we would have a few Dana Goulds in the audience. Not the comedy genius part. There's only one Dana Gould. Not the comedy genius part. Okay, but he's also a comedy genius.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Not the comedy genius part. Right. Just the part where you're into Kitsch Americana and, you know, boomerang tables and that kind of thing. Right. Right. Yeah, like boomerang tables and that kind of thing. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:13 And then I thought we might have a couple of like actual North African people, like maybe a Moroccan or two. That seems like it makes a lot of sense. No. I thought one or two. Maybe. I mean, we got 20 Jeopardy contestants. If there are North African people, the chances that they're, well, you know, maybe their parents own a, maybe they own a Fez. Hey, look, maybe they own a Fez. What am I talking, who do I know? What do I, I don't know anyone.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Me either. Yeah. I also don't know anyone. And then I thought maybe just a couple of people who just bought it at the thrift store and have it in their sketch comedy costume trunk. Daily. Yeah. Yep. So I figured, I figured it would be competitive.
Starting point is 00:53:49 But this Doctor Who situation has really thrown things out of whack. Because if you'd said to me one of those famous scarfs that Doctor Who wears, I know he wears a famous scarf. I thought you were going to say Doctor Who swears by. Yeah. The man swears by. Who's swears by. Yeah. The man swears by this. He swears by this bright scarf. That's the coolest look, probably.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Great Who look. Yeah. I know there's some maybe who wear a Fair Isle sweater. I'm not an expert on the outfits. Hard to say. There's a white tux one, I think. There's kind of a white suit one. And now there's a woman.
Starting point is 00:54:26 If you can believe it. I don't know what kind of hat she wears. Are you thinking of Doctor Who or KFC commercials? Oh, KFC commercials. Yeah. No, KFC commercials. You're right. Hopefully they get their pension as well.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Sure. Yeah, Doctor Who is something that people are very into. They sure are. I've noticed. And I just don't know what the fuck is going on. I mean, look, I've tried, too, and the new ones and the old ones. You're not against it. It just doesn't connect.
Starting point is 00:54:54 My brother loves it, and there's just something missing with it where I'm just like, oh, okay. I just don't know. It's bad. Is that why people like it? It's bad? Hey, everybody. This can't do it. John Daly, what's your like it? It's bad? Hey, everybody. This can't do it. John Daly, what's your Twitter account? What's your Twitter handle? Maybe this is a good place to hand
Starting point is 00:55:10 that out. At John Daly, J-O-N-D-A-L-Y. Hit me up. Let him know who your favorite doctor is. Let her rip, Daleks. Yay. Oh, no. Now I effed myself. Okay. You have to answer to my grandmother's ghost because she was a big fan of the show. She watched it on PBS.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Cool. Well, when are we summoning? Summon the ghost. Summon the ghost. Bring back the dead. Raise her from hell. How do you feel about it? Now that we know that it's a Doctor Who thing, how many Fezzes do you think we're going to have?
Starting point is 00:55:49 I'm going to guess 30 Fezzes. 30 Fezzes. John, what do you think? How many Fezzes, if we've got 20 Jeopardy! champions, how many Fezzes? Oh, wow. I'm going to say 20 Jeopardy! champs. The margin of error for liars there that want attention I would say is 3, so let's just say
Starting point is 00:56:06 17 or 23 maybe So you think 3 are lying You're saying false Jeopardy! contestants Well, it's more likely that they lie about a Fez than a Jeopardy! so we have to also take that into consideration Let's subtract 3 from Fez Yeah, so Fez
Starting point is 00:56:23 Brian, can you call Nate Silver please I'm gonna say eight eight eight Fez's okay eight Fez's wow okay guys I I previously I think on last week's show I made some kind of prediction about uh that said that I would beat it but narrowly but now that I know about this Doctor who thing i'm blowing that up please don't say beat it uh i'm gonna say i'm gonna say sorry i know you like to keep it clean uh i'm gonna say 58 fezes wow damn okay That's a lot of hats. I feel like I have some metric as No, but this might be I think what might happen with you is you might have that Price is Right
Starting point is 00:57:12 $1. Okay, yeah. So that could have been a good play on your part. $1 boy. That's my nickname. Nope, sorry it's Peter Zegel. Peter Zegel. Brian let's hear the answer. Yeah, so it was completely overwhelming.
Starting point is 00:57:31 Fucking Brian had to count them. Wow. Okay, so. I put them into categories. So we got five straight up Shriners. We got nine straight up admitted Doctor Who, like I got it as part of a Doctor Who cosplay thing.
Starting point is 00:57:49 18 North African ones. Morocco or Lebanon or Turkey. A lot of people who were traveling and got it. And then 11 who were a lot of inherited from their grandpa. Haunted Fezzes.
Starting point is 00:58:05 Yeah. Two Aladdins. Oh, yeah. Two people are Aladdin? Now, one of those is definitely a liar because there's only one Aladdin. You're thinking of the character Aladdin. We're talking about the sexual identity Aladdin.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Aladdin. One tiki guy, because I guess it's part of a tiki thing, and then... What's up, man? I'm tiki man. I think the tiki guy Because I guess it's part of a tiki thing What's up man? I'm tiki man I think the tiki guy That's the kind of not comedy genius Dana Gould guy I was thinking
Starting point is 00:58:34 Yeah It could be a comedy genius I don't know it might be Blaine Kapach Could be Blaine Kapach Hard to say Three that were specifically Cthulhu-themed. Cthulhu? Cthulhu-themed.
Starting point is 00:58:48 Cthulhu, the Lovecraft character? Oh. Monster? It was just one guy at first, and I thought, oh, that must be some sort of novelty thing. And then two other people had those themed things, so maybe that has something to do with him. How do you pronounce that word? Cthulhu. Cthulhu.
Starting point is 00:59:05 Cthulhu? I've never known that. Okay. Cthulhu. Cthulhu. Cthulhu? I've never known that. Cthulhu. I've only seen it written. That's cool. How many Tintin cosplay people? No Tintins that I'm aware of. And then there were 39 that were just vague.
Starting point is 00:59:20 So what was the final number? Yeah, so the final total of which is 85. Wow. That's crazy. I think five of those could be discounted as, like, goofy novelty store bullshit. So you could say 80, but, you know, 80 to 85. Shit, I mean, any way you slice it, that's a landslide. Feds, feds, feds.
Starting point is 00:59:43 Let me ask you this. How many of our listeners do you think have that kind of hat where there's two beer holders on either side? Oh, so we're trying to beat Fez now? Yeah. Less than Fez. I don't think that's a contest. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:59 I think less than Fez. Yeah. I think less than Fez, too. Beer holders? Mm-hmm. Yeah. But Fez blew me away. I think less than Fez, too. Beer holders? Yeah. But Fez blew me away. That blew me away.
Starting point is 01:00:08 Me, too. I mean, I thought it was going to be a lot, but boy. Boy. Boy, howdy. 80, over 80 Fezzers. What's a better kind of hat? What kind of hat could be? I think I can beat it with another kind of apparel.
Starting point is 01:00:20 Okay. How many people out there have a drug rug? Do you know that kind of poncho that stoners wear? Yeah. I don't know what you call that. It's striped. I have one. Do you?
Starting point is 01:00:32 Yep. Do you call it a drug rug? No. Mine is a little nicer than what you would call a drug rug. I bought it thinking it was a rug and then realized it was a poncho. Started wearing it around. Yeah. Yeah. I think we can beat Fez with that.
Starting point is 01:00:47 With ponchos. With drug rug. Drug rug type ponchos. Yeah, I think we have enough people who were stoners in the 90s. Are we including, though, are we including, like, ladies? I mean, remember, like, five years ago, women were wearing ponchos all over everywhere. It wasn't that exact, like, it wasn't that exact kind of like, whoa, what's up, man?
Starting point is 01:01:08 kind of poncho. It was different kinds. Like some were knit instead of woven. Right. They have different patterns, yeah. But there's that universal, I know you're, yeah, the universal shape. You get it at a swap meet. Yeah. Yeah, like the kind that either
Starting point is 01:01:24 a character from Point Break or Poncho Villa would wear. Yeah. One or the other of those. Or like a Senor Frogs. Or somebody who has- Everyone at Senor Frogs. Yeah. I think that's interesting.
Starting point is 01:01:38 So how many of those do you think there's going to be? I think we could get a hundy. I think we could get a hundy drug rush. Brian's going to have to count these by hand. Yeah. Right. Because they're coming in on to count these by hand. Yeah, right. Because they're coming in on the email. Paper ballots.
Starting point is 01:01:47 Yeah. How many people is the pool? Is this all your listeners or is this people who have been to your live shows? These are all our listeners. Yeah, people listening right now. All listeners.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Okay. Yeah. Right. Everyone within the sound of our voices. I'll say like over 150 with drug rugs. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:02:03 I think that's... I don't know. I think we could do... Now that Fez is blew my mind. I think that's, I don't know. I think we can do, we can do now that Fez is blew my mind. I'm just like the drug rugs seem more pop. How about cowboy hats? Just like who has straight up cowboy hats. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:13 It's gotta be more than that. It'd be hundreds. Yeah. Yeah. It's too many. Yeah. I'm trying to think, is there something else that is part of a pop culture costume?
Starting point is 01:02:22 How many people own their own lightsaber? Oh, that was custom made for them? That's going to be like 749 own their own lightsaber. Oh, how many people have a Harry Potter robe? Have one of those Harry Potter
Starting point is 01:02:35 academic robes. I like this drug rug thing. People should have to show a picture because the margin of error is crazy. We trust our listeners. Why would they lie? Well, it's more fun to not do the work, but I crazy. We trust our listeners. Why would they lie? Well, it's more fun to not do the work, but I like to know the real thing.
Starting point is 01:02:50 That's it. It's drug rugs this week. It's drug rugs versus Fez's. We had 85 Fez's. How many drug rugs do we have in the audience? Email us at JJGo at MaximumFun.org I love knowing that drug rug. It's called the drug rug. That's so great. Hashtag JJGo on TwitterumFun.org. I love knowing that drug rug.

Like, yeah, I feel a little spiritual on vacation. I'm in South America. Yeah. Changed my life, dude. Yeah, so this call is a combination momentous occasion and Fez talk. Great.
Starting point is 01:03:37 Well, we're transitioning into momentous occasions. When something momentous happens to you, call us at 206-9844-FUN like this person did. Hey, Jordan, Jesse, and guests. I had a little bit of a momentous occasion last night, which is that I, for the first time, slept with a dude, and I was pretty excited about it. But I wasn't going to call until I was listening to the podcast this morning, and I heard the call for people who own Fezzes, and I am part of a group of board game nerds who all wear Fezzes to identify us as a group, because we're big nerds. Like when you're at nightclubs?
Starting point is 01:04:29 was the last call by the Pauly dude and I am also Pauly although I'm not, I guess, in a throuple. Didn't quite hit that mark.
Starting point is 01:04:43 But I was just very serendipitous and I got excited. So I hope you guys have a great week. First of all, we love you too. We love you too. I want to fuck that guy. I mean, sometimes our – He's like a fucking sweet peach, doesn't he?
Starting point is 01:05:00 Yeah, he's just the nicest person in the world. He's insanely weird. Love him. doesn't he yeah he's just the nicest person in the world he's insanely weird love him are sometimes our listeners make me feel like i am i am not living life i know not like what why am i not part of a i don't know if the board game club is polyamorous there's something amazing about just being like i fucked with a dude last night. I'm psyched about it. Anyway, the Fez thing. What is happening? And I'm Polly.
Starting point is 01:05:30 It's a man who is living life. Yeah, he's living life. It sounds like a blast. Fucking living life. Making discoveries, challenging himself. Do you think he fucked with the Fez on? Oh my God, I hope so. Post board games? He's probably, he's definitely come in the Fez.
Starting point is 01:05:42 Post wits and wagers, he's like, this game of wits and Wagers is over. He flips the table and they fuck. So you have to keep it on with one hand, I bet. Or maybe you put some barrettes in there or something to keep it on. I don't know. It looks like the mastermind flips the table. The mastermind.
Starting point is 01:06:01 Oh, man. All right. We got to see who the werewolf is. Can I tell you? I'm trying to think of another board game. Can I tell you? I had a Fez occasion. I took my son, Oscar, out with me, and we were doing some garage sailing.
Starting point is 01:06:19 Guess what we bought ourselves? Fez? Fez? Yeah, fucking Fez. Got him a Fez. Cool. He was like, can I have this hat, Dad? I was like, what a bought ourselves. Fez? Fez? Yeah, fucking Fez. Oh. Got him a Fez. Cool. He was like, can I have this hat, Dad?
Starting point is 01:06:27 I was like, what a timely request. That's great. Yes, you may have that hat. Is it a child's Fez? It's a man's Fez, but my child has a man's head. Ah, sure.
Starting point is 01:06:37 All my children have enormous heads. Yeah. We had to take all our children to the head doctor to measure, and then they kind of would look at,
Starting point is 01:06:51 the brain doctor looks at my wife and I with a concerned look, and then puts the tape around our head. There's three times we've done this. Wow. Puts the tape around our head, looks at it, and goes, all right. Same thing? Three different times we've been required to take our baby to a man who measures our heads. Then says, well, yeah. These kids are all skull.
Starting point is 01:07:10 I got a big head, too. Seven and seven-eighths. Hell, yeah. That's my hat size. Hell, yeah. Yeah, pretty big. Cool head, dude. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Hey, cool head, bro. Yeah, it's the same one I've always had. Yeah. I love that guy. Nice. I've always had seven and seven eighths. I like how he was like, and I am not in a thruple. Hey, man, you can get there.
Starting point is 01:07:31 We believe in you, caller. We believe you could be part of a thruple, if that's what you want. I think he could be in a quadruple. Sure. Yeah, quadruple, yeah. Get into whatever kind of configuration you want, baby. But you've got to, if you want to be in a quadruple, yeah. Get into whatever kind of configuration you want, baby. But if you want to be in a quadruple, the secret is you got to stay up on the latest web architectures, particularly Drupal. Sure.
Starting point is 01:07:54 Kind of on top of Drupal. I think I know what Drupal is. I'll trust you on that one. Content management. Oh. Web. Sounds useful. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:02 Let's ask that dude. Yeah. The thing is you got to have a lot of communication when you're in a quadruple. Communication's key. You've got to have really good contact management. That guy seems like he's really good at communicating. Oh, yeah. Brian, let's play this next call.

Starting point is 01:08:49 The police came and said, okay, thanks. And then left. So hopefully it doesn't start up again. I guess I have to get back to my bike ride. Nice. It's a great way to ring out the ear. Hard as a mountain and quite literally wet as a river. I'm by the river and I used water to put out this fire. Is that too on the nose?
Starting point is 01:09:09 Anyways, love the show. Bye guys. To be clear, you're hitting the streets. Sure. That's the slogan for this year. Maybe it was just because of what we had been talking about. And again, this listener has not heard this episode yet. It's not even out yet.

And, by the way, the guy who came to tell us what to do when you encounter a bear never showed up. Anyway, it's fun.
Starting point is 01:11:57 You are guaranteed laughs in every episode. You can't really guarantee laughs. What if somebody doesn't laugh? We'll get sued. Join us for our next episode when we have an expert in consumer law explain to us how to defend ourselves against one humorless litigious shut-in with enough time on their hands to sue us over our unfulfilled claim of guaranteed lapse in every episode here at MaximumFun.org. The Cat of the Week is Mabel from Green Bank, West Virginia.
Starting point is 01:12:32 Mmm, this cocoa is perfect, honey. Well, thanks, babe, but the kids made it. Sherry, Kevin, how are your Max Fun Drive decorations coming along? I made a giant enamel pin for all of us to put at the top of the rocket. But, moms, I always put the pin on the top of the rocket myself. Oh, Kevin, honey, it's time to start sharing these things. Whatever. The pod fairy isn't real.
Starting point is 01:12:53 Mama and mommy pay for our quality podcasts. Mommy? Mama? Is the pod fairy fake? Well, sweetie, the truth is no one pod fairy could make all the wonderful shows you love to listen to. And it's true. Your mommy and I choose to pay a small monthly amount to make sure those shows exist.
Starting point is 01:13:15 Hmm. I guess it does take a lot of work and resources to create a podcast, from generating ideas and booking guests and writing scripts and editing. Yes, honey. That's very important. And starting March 18th, we can listen to the year's best MaxFunDrive shows knowing that we're helping make them happen. We wish you a great MaxFunDrive and a cool and normal day. Love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart. Jordan Morris, troublemaker. John Daly.
Starting point is 01:14:07 Peter Sagal. I got to tell you guys, if you're biking along a riverfront path in Taipei and you see a small fire, you better hope there's some fucking buckets in that garden. Yeah. Because you're going to want to put that fire out, baby. Can't let Taipei burn down. Because you're going to want to put that fire out, baby. Can't let type A burn down. That, by the way, also is like one of the best Jordan Jesse Go calls if we ever need to pitch new storylines for Tintin.
Starting point is 01:14:33 Right, sure. Or possibly. No, that's not boring enough to be in Tintin. Get the buckets of water, Snowy. Something happened in that. Curious George books. Curious Georgia. Oh, no, a fire.
Starting point is 01:14:46 John, I'm trying to take the heat off your Doctor Who thing by bagging on tin tins. I want the people to come at me and not you. I want to take that from you. Maybe there's some tin heads out there. Oh, you know there's some tin heads listening. Hey, tin heads. It's tan tan. Hey, tin heads, your comic's
Starting point is 01:15:01 boring. It's a snooze. Like Paddington. Anyway. I'm just trying to take the heat. Thank you. Did you loop Paddington into your things you're taking the heat on? No. Listen, I know that people love those Paddington movies.
Starting point is 01:15:18 I've not seen them. Yeah, they're very fun. People love to tweet. You don't need to see them. They're for children, but they are really fun. Yeah. But I guess to me, and I've talked about this on the show before, that I regard Tintin, Paddington, Babar, Little Prince as like boring European children stuff that was pushed on me as a kid and I resented. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:38 Babar, definitely. The Little Prince is extraordinarily boring. Yeah. The bars of snooze. The Little Prince is extraordinarily boring. Yeah. But I love the movie with Gene Wilder when I was a kid and that weird little boy. And it was cool. And they had that evil snake in the grass guy.
Starting point is 01:15:55 And I loved it, but it is horrible. And the book, yeah, is a total snooze, but it's a cool idea. God. And sent X. God bless him. I read it to my daughter a year ago, and I was so mad at it. The whole time I was reading it, she was confused. I was like, I don't feel like I can bail on this because it'll just mean that anytime we're reading a book and she gets a little bored, she's going to want to bail on it.
Starting point is 01:16:19 And that's going to be like a lifelong problem for her reading or whatever. After he cooks on the volcano, you're like, I'm done. That's cool. He cooks on a volcano.
