And participating restaurants for a limited time.
Starting point is 00:00:15 This is a HeadGum Original. I hear the podcast coming Downloading on my phone The cover art looks different I wonder what's going on But I hear a brand new voice So charming and kind is better than Jeffrey James
Starting point is 00:00:51 this is Alfred's time he's doing all the improv with Riley Espar she thinks the mouse from Flushed Away is hard. Oh, how bizarre. At least we all have Alfred.
Starting point is 00:01:11 Oh, please, man, set us free. Because we'll listen to the podcast for Alfred and not Riley Okay, so I got some thoughts. So that was from... As far as it's been said, I think we can all agree. That was from Jamie. Jamie says, Howdy from a stepdad,
Starting point is 00:01:58 Alfred's motherland. Nothing to plug, just a song to welcome Alf to the pod. Thanks, fuck the Tories. Amen to that. Here's the thing. Was it beautiful the voice great music great of course was the voice like metaphorically like not metaphorically metaphysically like the voice of the song like the the message of the song good no it wasn't no it wasn't it wasn't oh, what would you quibble with? I guess saying that we'll listen to the podcast for Alpha, not Riley.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Sure. Simply because I think the rat from Flushed Away is hot. I mean, you chose to share that? But it's like, listen, if you've been with the show for three years now. Right. And you know that I'm into some freaky shit. Yeah. And that one thing, that one thing is the
Starting point is 00:02:47 straw that broke the camel's back i don't know what to tell you then you're fake fans you're fake listeners well they're very real listeners thankfully um i think that you uh it has soured me today no it has soured me i think you you need to acknowledge your own part in this, I guess. You brought this on yourself. You should have kept that to yourself. You never should have put that on public forum. No, because I wear my heart on my sleeve, Alfred. I wear my heart on my sleeve.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Oh, sorry. Sorry, I like to share. Sorry, I care. And sorry, I have great hair. That was because you said share. What's new Elfreeny teeny I did that because you said share What is new with you Bitch

I'm doing a lot of swarring on this one. Yeah, I guess I got that roast chicken in. I can smell it all the way over here in my room, which is lovely. And it smells like burning. Wait, I got to. Oh, I have to go. So, so yeah i'm excited to eat that um other than that it's a balmy 50 degrees here in chicago illinois which is a not a usual thing for this time of year so i'm living large how about you is it i bet it's ice ice cold where you are it's icy here actually today's today's nice today's like in the 70s. It's going to be raining this week, which I'm excited about. What is new?
Starting point is 00:04:46 What is new? Oh, no. I'm saving that for my What Shook Me. I bet I know what it was. No, you don't. You don't. But Alpha and I, I guess what's new with me is I can't, I have a phrase stuck in my head.
Starting point is 00:04:59 This isn't what's shaking me. I mean, it is, but I have a different What Shook Me. But I'll lead with you um what i haven't been able to get out of my head alf and i love elton john and we were we were doing a bit on the phone the other day we were talking about elton john songs and alf noted that like in a lot of his songs he kind of has an american accent when he sings except for there's one line in goodbye yellow brick road that we've just been doing non-stop
Starting point is 00:05:25 and you hear his British accent it'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics except he doesn't say it like that he says it'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics and so now we can't stop doing that so every phone call I've had with Al just starts
Starting point is 00:05:41 with me going it'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics and the other thing about Elton John that we've been making fun of or no I'm sorry reveling in how it's beauty admiring that's the word is I've seen Elton John twice live in concert and the second time I saw
Starting point is 00:05:58 him he had the flu which exacerbated the already glaring thing about Elton John's music which is that his voice has dropped about three octaves in the last 30 years. Every 10 years, his voice drops another octave and the flu concert. Hey kids,
Starting point is 00:06:13 hey, you're losing. Been there, been there, been in the gym. Shadow been lying all right for a while. So that has been tickling me buddy hey uh later on man if you're not busy um like i have to refinish the recording yeah um do you want to like i don't know meet at my place then we can go hunt the horny back toad what why are you laughing i'm just asking if you want to emphasis on back do you want
Starting point is 00:06:48 to that's literally how he says it he's no he's the horny back toad you just put the emphasis on back he goes no but it's a horny back toad that's literally it's the horny back toad you wish i was hitting horny harder that's your complaint hunting the horny back toad no because you're doing back again i can't not emphasize actor who can't take a note but the one the note is please stop emphasizing back the horny back toad oh god but we're not here to talk about horny backtoad. Oh, God. But we're not here to talk about horny backtoads. I wish we were. Well, unless. Yeah. But we are here to talk about something that tickles us, gives us a bit of a giggle.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Bit of a chuckle. Might be my new favorite topic and favorite reviews. Pitched by Alfred, shockingly. Okay, I'm not sure why that's a shock. I'm actually the creative genius behind the show. I came up with the idea for a review review. Today we are talking joke books. Alfred, tell me about it. I owned a joke book. It was called The 8-Year-Old's Guide to Podcasting. And everything that I've been doing in the last several months has been ripped directly
Starting point is 00:08:05 from its pages no i did own a joke book i remember very very uh specifically owning purchasing a joke book from barnes and noble uh in probably the year of our lord 2004 that checks out that feels like a prime time for joke right elementary school i was in sue me i'm young um and uh yeah i i try to think about i the only joke i think i remember from that was there was something like um everybody's picking their nose and eating it because they think it's candy, but it's not. Oh my God. But it's not. But it's. See what they did there?
Starting point is 00:08:48 See what they did there? And I think Shakespeare never died. I think Shakespeare's alive and well, and he is somewhere trapped. He's writing joke books. In a garage writing joke books. Here's the thing. I love a joke book. Some of them are really clever and silly and corny, and I love a joke book. Like there are some really like clever and silly and corny.
Starting point is 00:09:05 And I love it. I love like when I was looking up, it's like different age range, but really specific. It's almost like for kids clothing. It's like joke books for kids four to eight, eight to twelve, twelve to sixteen. I saw there was a series that was literally like jokes every eight year old should know. And then like also suggested jokes every seven year old should know. Jokes every nine year old. And I'm like like they really got like a little cottage industry there but i'm not sure that the sense of it i think age ranges is better because i'm not sure a joke book for
Starting point is 00:09:35 eight-year-olds is going to be materially that different than a joke yeah how different for seven to nine um it's it's amazing i remember having a joke book um i don't remember any of the jokes from it unfortunately tragic mine was such a killer but i mean like did you get it like it makes me want to cry of like thinking about like tiny alf like memorizing them and like telling them in school or like was it just to read no no absolutely here's what I did. I memorized them. That makes me want to cry. I told them in school. Oh, bless him. Somebody says, oh my God, what a great joke.
Starting point is 00:10:10 I say, I know. Came up with it myself. No, you didn't. I absolutely did try and pass those jokes off as my own. And I have a very distinct memory of coming to school, being in the elementary school cafeteria, and seeing a girl at the table next to me with the book and thinking like oh no fuck she's she's in on it she's she's it wasn't even so much like she i'm gonna be found out because i don't think i was even aware that i shouldn't have been doing it yeah like but um it was more like fuck she's gonna she's gonna get all the
Starting point is 00:10:43 laughs now um that was your feet yeah which i guess what's revealing about that is i think it explains why i don't know how to read or do basic arithmetic because i was much more focused on who's gonna get the laugh today that is so sad there's there's it's not a joke book but one of my favorite scenes from anything ever so famously my favorite tv show of all time is hello ladies and there's a bit in one of the episodes it's the dinner party episode and steven merchant goes and it's like there's one guy in this dinner party and he's meeting all these people for the first time and steven merchant meets this guy who is like very funny and like very blue sense of humor and like gets everyone
Starting point is 00:11:23 laughing like during the toast and throughout dinner and steven merchant's like trying to keep up and he's realizing that nothing he's saying is landing and so he sneaks off to the bathroom and like googles jokes on his phone and you see him like rehearsing the joke in the bathroom like under his breath and then he goes out and then he starts telling him but then he realizes that it's like the jokes are really problematic and everyone everyone's like that's not funny and then he's trying to explain why the joke is it's it's incredible and they kick him out wow um and that just reminded you a lot of like of you and like all the problematic shit you say i was gonna
Starting point is 00:11:59 say it reminded me you telling the story it was like you were telling a story from your own life and you were like making no no no um can we start you're so excited i am so excited because i i mean guys whether you like it or not i think we're gonna have to do joke books two three four like the reviews it's so ripe for incredible reviews like already people buying joke books and then writing a review there they are some of my favorite reviews. It's like it attracts a reviewer who thinks they're funny. It's amazing. A very specific. And I'm just really upset that you weren't this excited for the Dice episode personally.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Listen, the Dice were, it's Dice. The Dice were, well, it's Dice. Well, Dice. This is for reviews. Okay, so i have a lot okay this is for grandpa's naughty joke book no it's not i also i have to just read the description of grandpa's naughty joke book first there are no dirty jokes or porno in this book. Oh my god. But most are very risque and very funny. We poke fun at everything and everyone.
Starting point is 00:13:11 No exceptions. Black, white, boy, girl, other, democrat or republican. We don't care. They're gonna get it. The author believes a joke a day keeps the doctor away. So, just with that in mind. I'm terrified. This is the review.
Starting point is 00:13:30 You're going to get the show cut from the network. Leah V. Leah Ventriloquist. Leah Ventriloquist. Five stars. Ha ha ha. Ew. Is the subject line. five stars ha ha ha eww is the subject line
Starting point is 00:13:49 oh I thought that was the review I bought this at a bookstore took it to work real shame I never got it back had to order another one the jokes in it are great that book was the most reading
Starting point is 00:14:04 my co-workers have done since I brought an erotic XXX novel to work. Oh my god. Leah? Leah, could you come in my office, please? Yeah, for sure. Awesome. Hey, Leah. First of all, how's your day going
Starting point is 00:14:19 so far? Oh, pretty good. Pretty good. You know, Brad, my husband, he was laid off last week, so he's still. Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. It's a tough time right now. Yeah, absolutely. But, you know, I'm still, you know, I'm still here and the kids are doing great in school, you know, so we're feeling good. That's good. Well, you still being here, that's actually something that I wanted to. It's fine. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Yeah. Nothing. No, nothing right home about. Listen, I'm just going to cut. We're taking a few people to the lake this weekend. We're going to do like a little barbecue or something. Oh, that's so nice. Brad's sister and her, my brother-in-law, they have a lake over there.
Starting point is 00:15:02 If you wanted. Lovely. If I, you know what? I, I have plans, but thank you um wanted standing invitation then uh that's very kind of elia yeah um but i guess today unfortunately uh it's a little bit of a might be a little bit of a downer um this meeting because it certainly is for me. Numbers not looking good? Nope.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Numbers are actually, we're doing really, really well. It's our best quarter yet. Oh, congrats. Yes. If you could let me talk, please. I'm sorry. This is just a little bit of a sensitive subject matter. Sorry. My bad.
Starting point is 00:15:39 It's okay. I think you know, you must know what, why i brought you in today um is it about the i don't know is it about the charity whip around i've been doing i'm asking everyone to donate to my my brother has a has a charity rescues cats and dogs and it's not like strictly religious in nature but there is kind of a christian bent so is it like about that like it's not a no And it's not like strictly religious in nature, but there is kind of a Christian bent. So is it like about that? Like it's not a, no, no,
Starting point is 00:16:07 it's not about that. You really don't know. If I'm being honest here, I feel right now I feel pretty confused. The whole, like the office, the entire office, every room is just like plastered,
Starting point is 00:16:23 printed out photos of porn like the entire office like crudely put up like with duct tape is it the christmas you really have no idea is it the christmas tree i put up again it's like i i don't see christmas as a christian holiday i really don't leah it has nothing to do with religion um you are free to practice whatever you like. Obviously, it's about the porn. The porn? The porn, yes. Oh, you mean my sketches? If that's what you want to... I didn't know you drew those.
Starting point is 00:16:58 You're very talented at hyper-realism. No, yeah, no. I mean, some of them are reference images that i leave up so you can compare like i don't need to know that i don't need to know that uh leah obviously this is probably the most egregious thing i've ever seen in this workplace and highly inappropriate so obviously i'm gonna have to fire you but i think before i do i just need to know what went went through your mind when posting really NSFW, you know, photos and drawings around the office?
Starting point is 00:17:33 NSFW is not safe for work. I've seen it on my kids' computers. I don't know if you know what that is. I didn't know. I was really confused. Okay. Yeah, I guess I thought it might cheer folks up i mean you thought porn would cheer people no offense here but ever since you took over um ever since stanley left and you
Starting point is 00:17:55 you took over it's been kind of like bad vibes around here everyone's been really sad and like gloomy and like i guess i thought maybe the porn and my drawings and my naked porn drawings would help you know it's porn so you know it's when i was i'm using that word because you used it i'm using that word because you used it i'm trying to speak to you in a language that you understand um yeah i'm just, I'm sorry. I don't want to lose my temper, but I'm losing my flipping temper right now. Cause you said at the beginning of this meeting that the numbers had never been better. True or false. True. But that's not what we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:18:36 No, I think, no, I think I let you talk. I let you talk. I let you talk. I let you talk. No, I let you talk. I let you the boss i let you talk no leah leah leah leah leah leah leah leah leah leah i let you talk i did i not or let i let you talk did i not or did i not let you talk this is crazy leah i am your boss i am your boss so you are going to let me talk okay you just went zero to 60 do i get to talk do i get you do in a second i'm not done sure i didn't want the energy i know leah you are acting like a child you're fired and i want things out of your office by the end of the day i'm the child okay thank you so much if you you
Starting point is 00:19:16 could go i'm sure things out with uh with mary down in hr with a woman's body is a child not i'm a woman i am comfortable with my body I do not want porn put up in the workplace. Leah, you have to understand that's inappropriate. Yes or no? Do you understand it's inappropriate? Yes or no? No. Frankly.
Starting point is 00:19:32 That doesn't make any sense to me. I think you're insecure about your body. And I think these big ta-tas and these honking. What? You look at the picture. They've all got massive ta-tas. Well, exactly. And the massive ta-tas. That's exactly. And the massive ta-tas.
Starting point is 00:19:45 That's why. That's why. You can't even say it. And you're the baby. Because we're at work. No, I am not the baby. Leah, I need you to pack up your. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Sorry for what? I'm sorry. Which part? I'm sorry that you were upset by the ta-tas. That's not an apology. No. No, I'm not done. I'm sorry you felt that way.
Starting point is 00:20:04 I let you talk. I let that way. I let you talk. I let you talk. I let you talk. Can I talk now? Can I talk now? Can I say my piece? Can I say my piece? Leah.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Leah. Leah. Fine. Numbers have never been better. Has nothing to do with this. You can poll the office. Everybody will tell you they love the porn. Everybody.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Leah. Can I fucking finish? You said flipping earlier. Yeah, but now I've really lost my rag. Finish it. Everybody except you is comfortable with the porn. I think you're insecure about your body and the porn makes you uncomfortable. here's what i'll tell you fine i'll quit i'll i quit you can't fire me you've already been fired i found you get severance you dumb ass great
Starting point is 00:20:53 leah what of course people are happy with porn around the office everyone loves porn and the issue is it's not professional and i do not want it happening in the office. Wearing Crocs to work isn't professional either. And that didn't stop your ass. Get your things. Okay. Get out of this building. That was definitely across the line.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Take the porn down. No. And go. No. No? You may take my job. But you will never take my porno. Fine. Let's
Starting point is 00:21:28 pull the office. And if they agree that they want it taken down, then you have to take every single piece down yourself by the end of the day. Okay. Open store. Everybody? Everybody? Can I get you to stop working for a second? I'll turn. Yeah, what's up?
Starting point is 00:21:44 So obviously you all know about the situation points the walls going on. The porn. Yeah, the porn. You're talking about the porn. Yep, talking about the porn. Thank you, Brad. Of course. I've just fired Leah. I want you to all hear it from me.
Starting point is 00:22:00 No! What? No, yep, yes. She puts up the porn. Exactly. That's exactly right, Brad. That's why I fired her not leah we love porn leah andy she's being fired so what i porn leah you guys call her porn leah just firing her because you don't like there being another powerful woman in the office nope that is very offensive you say that i need to pull you guys The porn's coming down one way or another Whether I'm taking it down or she's taking it down Boo
Starting point is 00:22:29 No, not boo I know you all love the big taut eyes In the office But I need to show of hands right now Who wants the porn taken down? Who feels like it is disturbing their work and distracting them? Show of hands Nobody's hand goes up
Starting point is 00:22:44 Nobody's hand goes up Who Nobody's hand goes up. Who wants the porn to stay up? Every hand shoots up. Okay. Okay. Cut to. You're still fired. Cut to the boss's interview with their boss.
Starting point is 00:23:02 So, I just wanted to call you in here you probably know what this is about um yeah the porn yeah that whole porn fiasco that went down in you guys's uh office you know the other day i'm so sorry about that it was unbelievably unprofessional and i took care of it she's fired she well no okay so i think we're getting our wires crossed here. What I'm struggling to understand is your branch had the highest numbers of any branch. Not only last quarter, but historically you broke a record. Thank you. We are very proud of that. And I gave them a pizza party to celebrate.
Starting point is 00:23:42 But I feel like that is besides the point i don't think that has anything to do with the porn that was in the office put up by porn leah they called her if you can believe it i think that you should put the back up stewart come on you're pulling my leg um in fact we've instructed the regional managers in all the other branches to poll the offices and see if people are okay with it. And if they are, put the porn up. Sir, trust me, in my experience, people love porn. But it should not be in the workplace. It's very inappropriate. It crosses so many HR violations I cannot even begin to describe. People love porn, but it should not be in the workplace. It's very inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:24:29 It crosses so many HR violations I cannot even begin to describe. Of course, they're not going to say no to porn. But as a leader in the workplace, I think it is up to us to enforce the rules and make sure that no one feels uncomfortable. Here's the thing. At the end of the day, we're a company that sells porn. It's not crazy to have porn up at a company that sells porn. Yes, if we were selling staplers, it would be weird to have porn everywhere. But at the end of the day, we sell porn, ma'am.
Starting point is 00:25:19 I used to be in porn. You used to be in porn. I hear you. I hear you. I'm not ashamed of that. We all used to do porn, and now we work for a company that sells porn. So I don't understand why it's so weird to have porn everywhere. Because we are in an office space. And so there's the limits, there's the boundaries between work and a different kind of work.
Starting point is 00:25:38 And so in this kind of work, we're in the office space. We are running numbers. We're running data. And so that is outside of the set it is outside of the lines that has determined reality and fantasy and this is reality and we're doing work i mean like hell we have we have casual fridays but we also have to come dressed appropriately throughout the week look i hear you i really do i hear you i hear where you're coming from okay i don't know if you do i'm sorry that no i do if it was up to me
Starting point is 00:26:04 i would let all of you regional managers run things how you want to run them you know what i mean thank you thank you it is up to you because you are the ceo well tragically the board board gave me an ultimatum and they said either you get them to put the porn up or they're gone and you're gone who's gone any regional manager who refuses to put the porn up i if i can be honest would never ask for anything else I feel a bit torn about the porn well get with the porn gram girl
Starting point is 00:26:50 I don't know what the problem is I love my job and I want to make sure I'm running a respectful workplace where people understand the boundaries and feel safe sure again, that's why I said we poll them and we make sure everybody's
Starting point is 00:27:07 okay with the porn i uh will i be fired if i don't agree to this definitely okay let's pull about the porn I'm really glad to hear you say that every single office wall to wall covering the ceilings
Starting point is 00:27:38 covering the desks there is not an inch that hasn't been covered up by some kind of porn. And it's all Leah's drawings. I come back into the office. Hey, Leah, can I see you in my office again, please? Sure. I can see by the look on your face and hear by your tone that you
Starting point is 00:28:06 are still holding a grudge and I can't say I blame you and thank you for coming into my office because I know you are the new regional manager and we could have met in your office but I really appreciate you taking the time to meet in mine and I just wanted to say I'm sorry I didn't hear you
Starting point is 00:28:27 come on Leah this is already really hard for me to just say that I didn't hear you sorry yes that's it that's what I am you're sorry yes yes you want to say that one more time for me i'm sorry leah i'm sorry that i fired you for putting up drawings of huge humongous
Starting point is 00:28:55 tatas all around the office and bright big old rumps covering the floors i'm sorry that i got mad at that in the workplace. But you know what? Look, I guess you got what you wanted. Your porn is adorned and adored. And now I am in the office facing the door. So I am not doing well
Starting point is 00:29:17 and now you're the queen of the office. What? Is that what you wanted to hear? Look, you see me as the villain in your story and that's fine and that's fine cause to hundreds of others

That was his car because he's that old. That was a little wordy, but I got what she was going for. Took me a second to work it out, but once I did, I frigging loved it. My dad's prehistoric. Cut to the parents at meeting with the school principal at the Waldorf school.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Hey, thanks for meeting with us. We just wanted to talk about some stuff that we like happened with Babydoll. That is of course her given name.
Starting point is 00:41:08 At home last night we had a dinner party um and she just said some stuff that made me like kind of wonder about some of the stuff that was going on here at school so thank you for meeting us absolutely absolutely you know baby doll is one of our brightest and most gifted students she is a pleasure to have in class and she is friends with everybody and her reading comprehension is through the roof. So you two should be very proud. Thank you. And we are, and we are,
Starting point is 00:41:33 we are, we love, we love her. We wish we could take the credit, but I mean, she is precocious, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:41 She gets that from my side of the family. Certainly does. Not mine. But you know, we're not mine uh but you know we're we're you know i'm third generation waldorf school legacy i yes i love the waldorf mentality methodology but i'm so glad to hear that you know when i was in school granted it was the 90s things were a little different crowd work was um well crowd work was like an elective um sorry how old were you sorry i'm so sorry how old are you if you were in waldorf school in the 90s um i guess i'm probably 36 jeez I can't remember my own freaking birthday. Yeah, I'm 36.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Sorry, you looked a little bit older. But that's all right. What? I don't think I look that old. You know what's so funny? Your baby doll. Sure. She told me the funniest joke the other day.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Oh, yeah? She's always doing that. It was about you, actually. And that's why I thought of your age. Oh, really? You know the car from the Flintstones? Like the yeah she said that she said let me guess what she said she said my dad's so old that when he first car he ever had was you remember the one from the flintstones that we had to running on the yeah a little wordy don't you think couldn't
Starting point is 00:42:58 you help her cut down on the wordiness of some of her jokes i think think. Sir, she is only five. So you do have to have a little bit of a gentleness with that. I'm just saying when I was at the Waldorf School, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm just saying when I was at the Waldorf School, we did a whole unit on punching down. We did a whole unit about how it's not cool to make fun of people who are already having a hard time. And I think we can all agree I look like a guy who's having a hard time. And I think we can all agree, I look like a guy who's having a hard time. So I just think it's kind of,
Starting point is 00:43:30 it reflects badly on you guys that you would teach a little girl to make fun of someone like me who's so clearly going through it. Mr. Smith, you know, it's been a minute since you've been in waldorf school um and i don't know what baby doll has been telling you but we don't teach any comedy classes here we teach you know them being out in nature and some abcs and knife work knife skills especially but baby doll has taken an interest in comedy
Starting point is 00:44:06 all on her own. I see her reading a joke book for smart kids out in the yard, and she's gotten a little bit of a fan club, I must say. So again, you should be very proud she's doing an interest in comedy, which you know, it takes a lot of time and effort to improve upon.
Starting point is 00:44:22 I'm sorry. Waldorf schools aren't teaching crowd work anymore? I don't think they've taught crowd work at Waldorf since, what,
Starting point is 00:44:32 2001? I want to take... I think I got a homes... I think we got a home... Babe, I think we got a homeschooler. I'm sorry, this is crazy that you're just telling me this now.

She's so fucking good. Yes, all good things. I was just telling your parents how much we love, eyes to them, how much we love having you in this school and how many friends you've made. I've made so many friends.
Starting point is 00:45:14 And actually, Miss Appletree, I have a new set for you that I'd like to perform at the next talent show. Oh, well, that that's fantastic baby doll. Can I share one of them for you right now? Of course you can, of course you can. Please. My dad is so old.
Starting point is 00:45:42 How old is he? How old is he? You remember when black and white TVs changed to color TVs and like everyone was really excited about it? He, that was when he was 10, so
Starting point is 00:46:00 he was already a bit older than that. And so he really mostly remembers watching things in black and white at his friend's house because his family didn't have a black and white TV. They waited a while because they were still listening to radio shows. Oh, baby doll! Baby doll! That has to be the closer.
Starting point is 00:46:26 You have to leave him with that. That is incredible, baby doll. Thank you. I killed. You did kill. Daddy, you didn't laugh. No, you did kill, baby. You did kill.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Doll. What? You didn't think? Big puppy dog eyes. You didn't think it was funny? No, I'm, you know... I don't know, I... Are you laughing on the inside like your grumpy mug from Disney World?
Starting point is 00:46:54 Yeah, just like my grumpy mug that says... Oh, I swear I'm laughing on the inside. That's me. Always the butt of the joke. You mad at me, daddy? No. I could never be mad at you. I'm mad at myself
Starting point is 00:47:12 for being such an easy target. No! No! No, it's true. If I didn't look so goddamn old. I'm 36 36 I look 79 And I can't help that and it's not your fault For laughing at that That's my fault for looking old
Starting point is 00:47:32 You're right I'm gonna go I'm gonna leave you and mom What? I'm gonna leave you and mom I think you and mom deserve To not have such an old-looking but young at heart
Starting point is 00:47:47 and biologically young. But I love you, Dad! And I love you too, baby doll, but I can tell the most good I can do for your comedy career is to let you keep bullying me and I just can't stick around for that.

That's the British way. No, there's no way. Whoever sold that to you was absolutely lying to you, dude. You guys just don't get it.
Starting point is 00:56:35 You guys just don't get it. It's like they say everything's bigger in Texas. Everything's bigger in Swansea, which is where I was, which is why my passport is double the size. Why were you even in Swansea what were you there for I was there to see my people to interact with the people of my

Starting point is 00:58:55 because it didn't seem like anything that was that important you see that is the size that a passport is supposed to be. Clearly, this is the fake. I mean, if you were really born in Surrey, then why don't you have an accent? Like how I'm, like, you know, I was raised in America. Well, I was raised in America, but I was born in Surrey. Oh, well, then why is your passport so tiny? Because it's a legal British passport. I'm a dual citizen of the US and England.
