That's hey to you.
Welcome in.
Welcome to the show.
Andy, Mike, and Jason, the Spitballers Podcast back again, episode 63.
Hey, everybody.
Breaking out a new segment today.
It's called Liar Liar.
You're going to enjoy it.
Or else.
Unless I'm lying.
Oh.
You never know.
We've also got Would You Rather on the show today.
Another Spitballers draft.
And a review.
Oh!
Review-a-saurus rags.
This one comes in from listening on a plane by sdavidson901.
I think the name is sdavidson901. That's right.
It's a five-star review, Mike, so it's great.
Here's what it says.
It says, I downloaded an episode to listen while flying solo.
It started off great, laughing to myself inside my head but after a few
minutes i couldn't keep my laughter in then when andy mentioned the boot the size of a continent
i lost it i had to pause for a few minutes to recompose myself i catch my breath while getting
glances from everyone around me i was worried they were going to have to land the plane and bring me to a psych ward which i would be fine with as long as they gave me my weekly dose of the spitballers podcast
uh s davidson 901 thank you so much for listening to the show and for the review have you guys ever
been on the plane and listening you're listening to something funny or watching a funny movie and
you get the audible giggles.
I have not been in that situation.
Now, when he said he, she was flying solo,
I couldn't help but think of this man is in a prop plane by himself
with our podcast on.
Barely paying attention to the task at hand.
Cracking up while he's got hands on the sticks.
I had to pause because I
was about to crash.
But we do appreciate the review, the
subscribes, Apple Podcasts, wherever
you're listening, Spotify.
Keep them up. What you do on
a plane is very, very
interesting because you can do certain
things like listening to a comedy podcast.
You're laughing. You seem like a crazy person.
I recommend it.
We fly for the Fantasy Footballers podcast around the country from time to time and uh so here's a guilty pleasure that i have just recently finished season two of
this is we get asked all the time like what's a what's music what's a band that you're like
ashamed to love but you do and i don't really have a great answer for that but if you were to say what's
what's a show that you are ashamed to love but you love oh there's no doubt on our set man yes it's one punch one punch it's fantastic if you don't know what it is it's anime it's outlandish
it's ridiculous but on the plane I remember flying and there is a certain character in this show that
is highly inappropriate highly inappropriate and I didn't know I've character in this show that is highly inappropriate.
Highly inappropriate.
And I didn't know.
I've never watched this show before.
So I'm watching on my laptop, and I'm between two people,
and all of a sudden this super inappropriate cartoon character who has very –
Scant.
He has scant clothing and a lot of muscles, and I'm like,
what do I do? Do I put my hands over it do i cover it do i do i admit do i just do you lean in like oh this is great oh
yeah so uncomfortable but on this huge ridiculous smile so if anyone sees it oh man you're just
grinning i that was what like i don't get that uncomfortable. I don't embarrass easy.
I wish I had a turtle shirt where I could just hide my head from all onlookers.

We're going to start this one off with some Would You Rather.
Would you rather?
All right.
Kristen is a Spitwad, a Patreon supporter, and asks this would you rather question would you rather there be a perpetual water balloon
war going on in your city and town or a perpetual food fight taking place in your city or town
so this is just a persistent always forever battle taking place so first of all no matter what you
pick when you go outside it's game on yes so this is just a
matter of which game would you rather both play and which game would you rather avoid when you
do not want to have quote game on i have my my practical answer is it it it has to be the water
balloon fight because really yeah there's there's this thing that happens to food when you leave it out.
Yeah.
It goes bad.
There's problems.
Not the food Jason eats.
Jason's used to eating food that has a life cycle forever.
A McDonald's fry.
Twinkies stay forever.
See, the way that I'm interpreting this, this is obviously a government subsidized backed program.
Is this part of your platform, Jason? For sure it is. The way that I'm interpreting this, right, this is obviously a government subsidized backed program.
Is this part of your platform, Jason?
For sure it is. They are preparing the city for this war.
So they're the ones filling the water balloons up.
And when you go out, there's stands and tables of water balloons already pre-made ready to go.
Wait, so is this solving, like, the poverty crisis?
And that's where I wanted to go.
Because one of these, I'm not going out there and squirting this water balloon into my mouth.
I might be thirsty, but I'll go grab a bottle of water before I do that.
But if I go out there and it's like, oh, what is this, like a pie for someone's face?
I'm going to eat this.
So you won't fight.
You'll just eat the food.
I see.
Look, there's parts of, you know, I don't like eating the butts of food.
Do you guys know? Do any of you have that know, I don't like eating the butts of food.
Do you guys know?
Do any of you have that problem?
I don't like eating butts either, Jason.
No, like when you're taking a drink of anything, just leaving the last little bit.
When you're eating a hot dog.
Do you do that with a banana? Do you leave the last little bit of a banana?
Of course.
Because we're not monsters.
Wait, but you eat the top of the banana, which is the same.
Wait, you eat the bottom of a banana?
The little...
Not the peel.
No, the little black piece.
But inside the banana.
No, I...
You eat the full banana.
There's no way you do.
There's no way.
This is not...
Borland.
This is not possible.
You eat...
When you get a banana, you take the...
If you were to take the whole banana out of the peel, you would eat the whole thing.
I do.
Yeah.
What?
Yeah.
You eat the nasty black tip at the bottom. There's not the nasty black tip at the bottom there's not a nasty
black yes there is word when's the last time you had a banana which is the answer is never can't
you eat them both ways no you can't eat the butt of the banana what are you a monster i can't oh
no i couldn't wait for borland to chime in here because i already knew his response it should be
what all human responses are which is well no that part is like like for you pick it off for instance i don't eat this the
the the the middle of a peach the pit the pit because it's not made for consumption
that's apparently banana butt is a vape liquid oh no Yeah, I mean, I'm not sure that the official term of that spot of a banana is the butt.
But it makes sense, right?
It's the bottom.
I was intrigued that you were going all over the place, very general with it,
so that the bottom of your drink, that's the butt?
Sure, just the end.
Guys, according to Urban Dictionary,
the black tip of the banana is called the
Are you allowed to say this?
No, I'm not.
It's called something. Otherwise known as
the little brown part at the bottom of the banana
that no one in their right mind eats.
Yes, thank you. That's what it says, and it's the
bananas.
Yes.
Oh, the bananas. Yes. urban dictionary where they're asking basically
is it even safe to eat it i i'm still unaware of what it is you this is wild look so i want my
like i'll cut out if you give me a banana and it's got a bruise i'll cut the bruise out so i'm not
eating any black and there's no way you're eating the bananas. Yeah, I don't eat the bananas.
It usually stays in the peel.
Yes, usually it does.
So there's a mysterious bananas down there?
Well, because what you do is you peel the banana top to bottom.
It is.
You peel the banana top to bottom, but you're still holding the peel.
Inside the peel where your fingers are is the bananas,
and you don't want to touch it either,
which is why you want to keep that peel on your bananas.
Now, have you had your mind blown with the bananas, and you don't want to touch it either, which is why you want to keep that peel on your bananas.
Now, have you had your mind blown with the peeling the banana upside down?
Yes, but then you have to cut off.
Well, you don't have to cut it off.
You just rip the tip.
It's really easy.
I'm not saying I'm getting scissors.
I'm saying I'm taking the – yes, I'm just ripping it off. Get the banana scissors.
I'm just saying, like, I got to remove another bananas.
It's actually easier to eat to peel the banana upside down.
I don't need new things in my life, Mike.
I'm in my mid-30s.
I need to do things the way I've been doing them.
I have seen people do that.
Like, life hack.
Check this out.
And I'm like, I've never had a problem peeling a banana in my life.
That's a bold-faced lie.
Everyone has experienced when you go to do the banana.
It is a lie.
And the peel doesn't snap open, and now you have contorted the banana,
and you're upset.
I feel like we're already on the liar, liar segment,
because you just called me out.
I know what you're talking about.
Sometimes the banana, you know, if it's too ripe or something.
Yes.
Anyways.
Back to the bananas so past past the bananas past the bananas here's the here's the thing i don't like eating the ends of food okay that's the point of this story so i would eat and then
take the leftover little bit whatever it is it maybe it's the crust maybe it's
the last bit of a hot dog maybe it's you know the bananas and i'm throwing it so do you know
do you eat the heel of a of a loaf of bread oh get out of here you won't what are you five years old
he moves on to the heel he moves on to the i don't even understand how there's a butt of a hot dog
you can eat the hot dog either direction yeah it's the same hot dog, but I'm not even focusing on
that.
You probably move on to the next loaf
quickly.
Because I skip the heels.
Who peels your loaves for you?
Whoever invented that
sliced bread. The food fight is just as
wet, but it's
worse. I've got to go with the professional
water balloon fight
Al Borland do you eat the heel of bread?
No that's garbage
Nobody does
You eat the heel?
Yes I do
I'll eat it if I don't have any more bread
But I won't eat it if I have more bread
I'd rather have a sandwich with the heel
Than no sandwich at all
If I went to the loaf of bread
And I'm making myself a peanut butter and jelly
Which first of all sounds like a great idea And I want to the loaf of bread, and I'm making myself a peanut butter and jelly. You'll skip the... Which, first of all, sounds like a great idea, and I want to do that immediately.
And there's two pieces of bread left.
One is a heel.
One is a normal, beautiful slice of bread.
Right.
I'm throwing that bag in the garbage.
You're not even making a sandwich.
There is no chance I'm eating that awful sandwich.
Your wastefulness is unbelievable.
That's not wasteful.
That's helpful.
No, no.
By definition, that is wasteful.
But I get what you're saying. Tomato, tomato tomato all right jonathan from the website would you rather go back in time
to meet your ancestors or travel into the future to meet your grandkids oh neat i don't i i think
i'd rather go back in time to meet my ancestors i think i because i think it would be too traumatic to my future grandkids to have this happen to them.
Because it's just for my...
I don't know.
I don't know.
I would rather go into the future to meet my grandkids for a multitude of reasons, right?
One...
Yeah, but what if it's not such a great picture?
Well, sure.
Like, whatever.
If it's your ancestors, it's done.
This already happened right
this is a marty mcfly situation if you go into the future and meet your grandkids jason and what
if they're what if they're little brats so here's here's the reason i want to go into the future to
meet my grand so you can go to the future 100 right so my grandchildren will be sitting in
front of me and i will not be looking at them i'm'm looking right past them, looking out the windows. They're talking to me.
I'm going, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Yeah, and when it's my turn to talk, I won't have heard anything they said,
and I'm just going to say, what's your favorite toy or piece of tech?
I want to see the future tech.
Now, hold on.
Hold on.
Time travel.
If you go in the past and you meet your ancestors and you clue them in on a few little tips.
Then you're never born.
No.
Because they get rich.
No, you're born, but you're born into a nice trust fund.
Maybe.
Maybe you are.
For this question, you go back, you can meet everyone, and then everyone gets Men in Black flashed and it never happened.
So you're just having a conversation.
Yes.
I think I'd go back.
I think I would go back as well because the thrill of being able to,
like, you would be magic to them.
The things that you could offer, like a lighter.
I mean, if you go back far enough and you just have
a lighter on you but see i know i'm not magic so i'm not impressed with myself here i'm just like
you guys are dumb jason if i go to the future i hate to break something to you okay when you go
to a magic show they aren't actually magic what no i've, I've seen David Copperfield live.
This spawn of Satan flew over me in an auditorium where he was flying through hoops.
That was real.
Oh, because the hoops to prove that he's not on strings?
I've never been more freaked out in my life than when I saw David Copperfield as a kid.
Did he go through hoops that were placed both vertically and horizontally?
Yes, they had audience members come up.
Now I'm intrigued.
They were all given.
Now I believe magic is real.
They were all given hoops.
They were on the stage, and these four different people who were picked from the audience.
Did you know these people?
I didn't know them, but they were picked from the audience.
But here's the deal.
So they all do the hoops, and they go all directions over him.
That's crazy enough. Then he flies out over the deal. So they all do the hoops, and they go all directions over him. That's crazy enough.
Then he flies out over the audience.
This was an outdoor theater.
There was nothing above him.
I like how Mike said, like, Jason, I hate to break it to you.
Magic's not real.
Then he asked one simple question, like, did they hold the hoops horizontally and vertically?
And once he said yes, he's like, I'm in.
Magic.
It's solved.
Problem fixed. Clearly, he found out, he's like, I'm in. Magic. It's solved. Problem fixed.
Clearly, he found out how to fly, which makes him magical.
So I'm with Jason now.
I'm officially going to meet my ancestors.
I am too.
I will see you guys not in the future.
Jeremiah from Twitter, would you rather become twice as strong,
but only when both your fingers are stuck in your ears?
Okay.
Or crawl twice, twice as fast as you can run.
So you go to all fours.
Oh, my goodness.
So you're in a sprint, and you realize someone's catching you.
You go to all fours.
You're looking like a werewolf wild on the loose.
You're a cheetah at this point.
Now, what's that movie?
What's the movie with the M. Night movie?
The recent one where the guy's kind of like a physical freak.
Oh, Split.
Split.
Oh, yes.
He runs around on all fours, and that's creepy.
That's what I was going to ask.
Because a crawl?
Is this a hands and knees crawl, or can I bear crawl?
No, I think this is hands and knees.
Okay.
This is baby crawl. This is baby crawl.
This is baby crawl.
But that means your knees are destroyed.
Wait, you got to get knee pads.
Yeah, you can overcome that.
Incredible solution, Mike.
Gloves and knee pads.
Magic is real.
And then I'm going to bypass my karate kicks being devastating.
Like I could murder people with my twice as strong karate kicks.
What about your elbows, though?
Oh.
Like a nice elbow.
I mean, guys, when your fingers are in your ears, you're already flexing.
And if you go double strength, as long as all your flexes end up with your fingers in your ears, you're looking good.
Well, I don't think your muscles actually get larger.
You're just stronger?
The point of you, if your fingers are in your ears, you're not able to pick things up with your hands.
Right.
So you're only able to.
Yes, you're only kicking.
I just looked.
Mike is showing how you pick stuff up if you're on the YouTube channel.
It's not like a normal person.
This is much different.
So I am going to crawl, and then I am freaking people out, bro.
I am hustling so many people for a race.
Yeah. Look, you guys want to race?
I'll crawl.
You run.
You run.
I'll crawl.
Oh, my gosh.
You'd be a millionaire because who wouldn't take that bet?
And you would beat everybody because even though we're slow running compared to a fast person, we're not half as fast.
Correct.
So if you double my speed, I'm faster than every sprinter in the world and most horses.
Now, could you make it in the NFL?
Hear me out.
Crawling?
You just crawl around.
We got to hold the ball somehow.
No, you crawl 40 yards and stand up.
Oh, and then you catch the ball.
I got you.
Oh, you burn them, then you stand up.
That's awkward.
That is awkward.
But impressive.
Jason Moore's got a very unusual technique.
Watch his route here.
He's, in fact, on his hands and knees.
Yes.
There is no practical benefit to the double strength with fingers in your ears.
Like, other than carrying something incredibly heavy in a backpack,
a very specific case for this strength.
Like, I don't know anywhere.
Oh, I can think of one.
Oh, give it to me.
It's not a good one, though, but I was picturing somebody having to save somebody from, like, a car,
like, you know, the car crash, and you need to, like, lift the car, but the guy's running up.
He's got to put his hands in his ears.
He's also only twice as strong.
I was going to say, if you gave me twice the strength but took away my arms and said,
get this car off someone, I'd say, they're dead.
What if you're strong enough to be a superhero?
Can you be a good superhero with your fingers in your ears?
Yes.
If you're Superman strength, you could karate kick anyone.
I imagine you are running slightly faster in this situation.
If you're twice as strong, you're running pretty fast with your hands in your ears.
Yeah.
All right.
I'm crawling.
You guys ready for a brand new segment?
Let's go.
Let's do it.
Liar, liar.
Pants on fire.
All right.
All right.
I kind of missed the on Fantasy Footballers, our podcast, there's normally a finishing guitar riff.
That's true.
And I kind of missed it there because this was just, you know.
Oh.
I mean, that's pretty good stuff.
All right.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.
Here's how this is going to work.
Our fearless producer, Al Borland, has provided three statements to us.
Two of them are true.
One is not.
We try to spot the lie.
We're working together.
None of us know the answer.
Here are the three statements for round one.
We're working together?
We are because none of us know the answer.
I mean, if we don't agree, then...
That's great for you guys because...
Let me ask this.
Borland, do we have to submit one answer as a group?
No. Okay. If you disagree, you can have to submit one answer as a group? No.
Okay.
If you disagree, you can give me a different answer.
All right.
Well, then I take back my statement.
All right.
Round one.
Here is the first statement.
If you fold a piece of paper 42 times, it would be thick enough to reach the moon.
Hogwash.
Number two, shark teeth are 12 times as strong as human teeth.
And question three, or
point three, the average cloud
weighs an estimated 1.1
million pounds. So two of them
are true, one is not. Okay, that's
what I was going to verify. Two of them are true, one of
them is not. I have
seen certain things where if you do
X, Y, and Z, it can
reach the moon. I've seen a lot of those type
so this is like the type of something that is real but if you fold a piece of paper 42 times
so each time it's getting twice as thick two four talking some you're talking exponential
oh man i don't here here's what i was gonna let you guys think you're gonna run out of
paper i have i have heard this talked about before the folding of paper it still makes no sense but
i've been told that there is a there is a point where if you were able to somehow yeah big enough
piece of paper it would well no it would have to be it doesn't make a difference no it definitely
makes a difference well why does it make no it's a very... I guess it doesn't make a difference. No, it definitely makes a difference.
Well, why does it make a difference?
Because you couldn't...
If it wasn't a big enough piece of paper, you couldn't keep folding it.
Well, no, but you could at a microscopic level.
I mean, it doesn't make a difference because you...
There's a maximum amount you can fold a piece of paper.
Yeah, you fold a piece of paper in half, whether it's a large piece of paper or a small one,
you have half the amount of surface area.
No circling over there, Mike.
No, I'm seeing the maximum amount like somebody can actually fold a piece of paper.
Here's the thing.
And whether it reaches the moon.
That's cheating a little bit, Mike.
No, no, because this is just a hypothetical.
I'm just going to Google.
No, but if you find out you can only fold a piece of paper 30 times, you know that one's a lie.
I'm talking about human beings.
I know this one is true.
The overarching point at the beginning. I think it's true as well. Was A was true, but I wanted to see, okay, a human being,
how many times have we been able to do it?
And they're saying seven.
Hold on.
I'm going to Google real quick.
I think that one's true.
Strong are shark teeth.
I think the shark teeth are true.
Well, 12 times is strong.
No, that's the lie.
I'm going shark tooth
is a lie i'm not going to get burned on another cloud related question on this show i've heard
it's boots then it's clouds i think the cloud weighs in 1.1 million pounds and i think that
if you fold a piece of paper 40 times you would get to the moon so that the shark one's a lie
because you know teeth are teeth clearly clearly shark teeth being 12 times as strong as human teeth.
That one sounds very plausible.
The others sound outrageous.
So, of course, it's the plausible one.
Come on, Borland.
Get out of here.
I'm taking the shark teeth with you.
All right, Mike.
It's clear and obvious, Mike.
The cloud one makes sense, but I think that's too heavy.
So I'm going to say that the cloud one is not true.
What a fool.
All right, Borland, tell us the truth.
You're wrong, Mike.
It's the shark teeth.
It is the shark.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
Shark's teeth are just as strong or human teeth are just as strong as shark's teeth.
I said teeth are teeth.
I figure it's the same material.
Come on now.
Very good.
But that goes back to the point of if you fold a piece of paper 42 times
somehow you could get
it reaches the moon. See, here's what it should
say. It's just exponential
growth. If you were to take
a sheet of paper
the width of a sheet of paper
and multiply that times itself 42 times
because you cannot ever this is still a lie. You cannot fold a piece of paper, and multiply that times itself 42 times. Because you cannot ever.
Correct.
This is still a lie.
You cannot fold a piece of paper 42 times and reach the moon.
But if you did.
If you could.
If you could.
The statement says if you did this.
Thank you.
Then it would reach the moon.
No, no, no.
No, this is my point.
Even if you could.
I'm not talking about the difficulty.
The piece of paper would have to be like 20 times the size of planet Earth.
Sure.
So, no, this is a lie that's what
if means if you could all right moving on jason and i are geniuses mike stupid round two that one
is true oh that my statement we are geniuses obviously we don't even need to do any more
rounds i think or this segment ever again now that mike is wrong on something. All right, round two. The nine-banded armadillo almost always gives birth to identical twins.
So this is a type of armadillo, almost always gives birth to identical twins.
Betty White, here's the second one, Betty White is older than the invention
of rubber tires, garages, traffic signals, sunglasses, and sliced bread.
Wait a minute.
Betty White is a national treasure as well.
I know you haven't read the third one yet,
but garages are considered an invention?
I think there was a pretty carport life going on for the early days.
Where did you put your car before the garage?
I'm just saying a garage.
In the garage that has always existed.
A house was an invention? A garage was just. I'm just saying like garage. In the garage that has always existed. A house was an invention?
A garage was just.
I'm just saying like a garage is a shelter.
Like it's a barn.
Well, no, no, it's more of a garage.
Get out.
All right.
What's the third one?
Do you park your car in the barn?
If I had a barn, I would, and I would call it a garage.
There you go.
Would you let your livestock live in the garage?
Hey, they're called words, Jason. They're meant to describe different objects in society. There you go. Would you let your livestock live in the garage? Hey.
They're called words, Jason.
They're meant to describe different objects in society.
All right. The last one.
Minnesota has more shoreline than California, Florida, and Hawaii combined.
Ooh.
Now, that's a lake joke.
Yes.
The land of 10,000 lakes.
And if there's 10,000 lakes, there's a lot of shores.
So I buy that one.
What I'm not, I don't buy the Betty White one.
I don't think she's that old.
I mean, people can only be so old.
Rubber tires, garages, traffic signals, sunglasses, and sliced bread.
That's way too.
I mean, maybe, but.
See, I play this game different.
I play this game trying to get in the mind of Borland.
And I.
Yeah.
To, if I may. It's a disturbing place to travel if i may disrespect you get nocturnal trying to be an
owl yes i'm trying to be an owl borland i don't think you would have come up with this list of
things i just i think you would have been too lazy to keep going and say rubber tires and garages
and traffic.
That's exactly how I feel about nine banded armadillo though.
I don't think he's coming up with a new armadillo type for me.
That one's true.
That's what I think.
Yeah, that's true.
So Betty White's fake.
I'm with you again.
Oh, wait.
Oh, gosh.
One of these has to be a lie.
Shoot.
There's a foil to my plan.
Minnesota has more shoreline than California, Florida, and Hawaii combined.
That's a lot.
I'm going to go with that one.
I'm going with the armadillo.
That sounds like a Pokemon.
So we're switching them all.
So all of us believe something different.
Only one of us is a genius.
I'm locking in Betty White is older than those things as true.
That one's locked in for me.
No, that's the one I'm going to call that one the lie.
All right, Borland. This better not be one of these things where it's like, They're for me. No, that's the one I'm going to call that one the lie. All right, Borland.
This better not be one of these things where it's like,
They're all lies.
No, no, no.
But it's like, oh, false.
It was the eight-banded armadillo.
Yeah.
All right, tell the truth.
Jason's not far from the truth, but Mike got this correct,
and it is the nine-banded armadillo,
but it almost always gives birth to quadruplets.
Oh.
How do you like me now? I don't know if i like well we're even now but andy and i wrong lost one one one you've lost
one one one mike so now here we go i was under the impression if you get one of these correct
you are in fact a genius no no no we're all three round one yes that was only in round one that's
the rules yes all right last one was a lot easier.
You're right.
This will settle it unless we all agree.
Round three.
Okay.
This has been very fun and educational.
Humans share 60% of their DNA with bananas.
Bananas?
That one's got to be true.
That's the lie.
That's got to be true.
The largest turtle ever recorded weighed more than a ton.
I believe that.
And the toenail of your little toe is called the spungle.
Oh, man.
Now he's really spinning us into circles.
The spungle?
The largest turtle ever recorded weighing more than a ton.
I'm locking that in as true.
I'm locking that one in, yeah.
That's true.
So now, do you believe
are you buying into that i mean you do you andy but i think that's probably true but ever recorded
that means that this is in the does that mean that it's in the time that you know we've been
measuring turtles yes this is not like you're finding a fossil of a turtle right correct
more than a ton did you know i don't think so it's only two thousand pounds a sea like you're finding a fossil of a turtle? Right. More than a ton. Did you know?
I don't think so.
A ton is only 2,000 pounds.
Yeah, you're right.
Sea turtles get-
Is that how much?
Yeah, a ton is 2,000 pounds.
Okay.
I'm almost there.
Fascinating science fact from one of my children's skeleton bones.
The turtle shell, it's actually their ribs.
I don't believe that, no.
That's the lie.
False.
That's the lie. False. That's the lie.
Okay.
All right.
So now humans share 60% of their DNA with bananas.
Yeah.
Oh, this is...
I don't need to know that.
Well, it's too late.
You can't unlearn it.
I feel like...
I hope that's a lie.
I feel like the toenail of your little toe being called a spungle so if that is
the lie if that's the lie that you made up jeremy i am unfathomably proud of you that is such a good
we're playing balderdash right now this is balderdash 100 not a sponsor great game though
not a sponsor yes yet so you're out there balderdash? So if the little toe is called a spungle,
that's an inference that are all your toenails called a spungle
and he's just highlighting one,
or do they have a different name for every toenail?
I am officially locking in humans sharing 60% of their DNA with bananas
as the lie.
I believe that Al Borland copy-pasted these three, switched the word whatever with bananas is the lie. I believe that Al Borland copy pasted these three,
switched the word whatever
with bananas that we actually
share DNA with. He put bananas
in there to be funny. He might have done it on the
fly when we were talking about bananas.
I'm with you. That's a bananas
and I don't have to take it.
That's the lie. 60%
locked in because your toenail has to
be a spungle. Of course, makes too much sense.
Where are you at, Mike?
Now I'm in a very difficult position.
Because you kind of buy what I'm saying.
Because I actually thought that right away.
What are the chances of Banana actually being in the show?
But now you two are locked in on an answer.
So I can just go for it.
I could either win it all or lose to you buffoons.
Or tie by going with ours.
Yeah, but then who cares?
If you go with what we went with, then we're all the same.
Yeah, you really need to take another shot.
I'm going with Spungle.
I'm not getting in, baby.
Oh, no, Jeremy.
What is it?
Al Borland's face just said you got it right.
Mike is a genius.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
He came back. Yes. I am so proud of you. Now, I'm proud of you got it right. Mike is a genius. Oh, no. He came back from.
Yes.
I am so proud of you.
Now, I'm proud of you unless.
Yes.
Unless what Mike said is true.
If it's something like the toenail is called the spongle.
No, it's just completely made up.
Dude, I am so proud of you.
That is a great lie.
You know, as I can say, take this segment, shove it in your bananas.
All right.
We're moving on. We're moving on.
We're moving on.
I'm not.
You're not.
No, because you're the –
Because I'm a winner.
You went from the biggest loser to the biggest winner,
and you did it really quick.
It's time to draft.
The Spitballers Draft.
That's one of my favorite segments.
Oh, competition.
I enjoy it very much.
It really does.
All right.
I guess I have the first pick today,
and I guess we are picking the most iconic voices in Hollywood.
Borland, would you explain to us your view of an iconic voice?
I mean, I would just love to have that.
It doesn't have to be you.
Recognizable and memorable.
Okay.
They're doing a commercial.
You can hear their voice, and you know,
okay, I know who that is right away.
Iconic.
All right, everybody knows it, and it's tough
because I think there are two big names in my mind
that I want to select, but I'm going to go with...
We can just get to the third pick if you want.
Yeah, the top two are so obvious.
Because you're just going to take the other one.
Yep.
And I'm trying to think, what what is gonna win me a vote i mean both of these names are on the same playing field yeah that's
speaking of playing fields you settled it for me mike because i'll go the field of dreams route
james earl jones will be my pick darth vader mufasa field of dreams psyched me out man i
thought you were pivoting to ke Costner. No, sir.
No, James Earl Jones is in Field of Dreams.
Hey, just throwing this out there for later.
It's a great pick if you want Kevin Costner, Andy.
Yeah, I'll take it.
James Earl Jones.
Cool, so I'm up second?
Yeah.
Awesome.
Morgan Freeman.
There you go.
Well, this.
I was so close to going Morgan Freeman, but I went like ability factor. I like James Earl Jones a little bit more.
We were sitting in the studio when we were told that this is what the draft was.
I was like, that sucks.
There's two clear picks.
There's still fantastic ones.
There's plenty of okay ones.
There's plenty of really great voices who are nowhere near.
Well, you're not really helping yourself.
Look, I already lost by getting the third pick.
I am.
Yes.
Let me tell you something.
That's why you'll lose.
When you guys agreed that, yeah, there were two clear-cut winners.
Right.
I still had hope.
When Andy says there's only two, I'm like, man,
just let one of these two fall to me.
And when you chimed in and said, let's just get to the third pick,
I was like, maybe he'll mess
this up maybe he's thinking of someone else but you didn't those two are great so you're being a
real spungle right now yeah which as we learned is nothing um all right I'm gonna go with two
very classic yeah I get I get two they're going to be on the same playing field, but they're both great.
First, I'm taking Anthony Hopkins.
That's a great one.
Anthony Hopkins can do creepy.
He can do children's movies.
You know, he's the narrator for The Grinch.
Yep.
Anthony Hopkins is great.
And then, you know, I think to have an iconic voice like you you you go with the classic
like the the when you think about James Earl Jones and you think about Morgan Freeman you
think about that classic deep deep baritone baritone voice but I think there's another way
to try to win here and that's with voices that are mimicked, voices that are famous for their voice.
Oh, don't take my pick.
So I'm going, many pity, with Sean Connery.
Oh.
Oh, no.
Excellent.
Who did you have?
Shoot.
Wait.
I take it back.
It's too late.
So you went Sean Connery.
Sean Connery is on my list, but he's not the guy that I wanted to go with
because I'm with you.
I think someone whose voice is often imitated.
Oh, no.
It's literally.
I missed it.
I missed it.
And I know.
Hold on.
I got to write it down.
Everyone can write it down because if there is any red-blooded American.
Oh, you jerk.
The one voice.
Hold it.
Hold it.
The one voice that we all think we can do, except we can't,
is Christopher Walken.
Oh!
Which means I literally just landed my favorite two picks of this draft.
Oh, my goodness.
I'm not revealing this because maybe this is yours.
So my point with Christopher Walken, which I get, I understand,
but my two picks are home runs,
and I can't even believe they're here for me at the turn,
which is Sam Elliott.
Oh, that was the one.
When you said red-blooded, I was thinking.
Beef brisket.
Beef wellies.
Sam Elliott's voice is iconic.
It's in so many commercials.
Yes.
It's the best voice ever.
The problem with Sam Elliott is I don't think he has the same name recognition
with people a little bit younger than us that Christopher Walken has.
I don't agree. And then Liam Neeson is my third pick. Sure us that Christopher Walken has. I don't agree.
And then Liam Neeson is my third pick.
Sure, that's a good one.
Liam Neeson, iconic, everlasting.
Great.
Basically.
Because now I get my third pick.
Go for it.
I'll take Jack Nicholson.
Okay.
Oh, that's a good one.
Yeah, I like Jack Nicholson.
My number one guy.
I would tend to agree that, you know, he's not doing a lot lately.
No, he's not.
All right.
He doesn't need to.
He just kind of stepped aside.
He just watches Lakers games.
But definitely an iconic voice.
So, as Jason gets ready to make his pick, Borland, give us a lay of the land.
What are the teams looking like?
Andy has James Earl Jones, Sam Elliott, Liam Neeson.
Mike has Morgan Freeman, Christopher Walken, and Jack Nicholson.
Jason has Anthony Hopkins and Sean Connery.
Okay.
All right.
I've got my fourth pick lined up, Jason.
I hope you don't.
Look, I've got one of them.
Spongle me.
I hope you don't underthink this.
I've got one of them.
I'm putting Denzel in there. Great voice. He's on my list. Denzel is don't. Look, I've got one of them. I hope you don't underthink this. I've got one of them. I'm putting Denzel in there.
Great voice. He's on my list. Denzel
is locked in. My man. I'm
fine with my three picks. My man.
My man. I don't have a
tier one like you guys have.
This is the place where I real
the fourth pick is where I need to come up
from the bottom and make a great pick.
Here's the problem.
There isn't one. There's a lot of tier'm torn here's the problem there isn't one there's a lot
of tier four voices here and i don't know the right way to go do i go with great or do i go with
like memorable like there's a voice that i want to go with here that when i say the name you can
immediately immediately say like when when andy said Liam Neeson, I can't.
Like I know he's got a great memorable voice, the take in speech,
but I can't think of it immediately.
But if I say this name, I know you can't.
But it's not a good voice.
You know what I mean?
It's annoying.
There's two people that come to mind.
So I'm very interested which one you're actually thinking of.
So now let me just, to help finish this up,
what is the title of this draft, the most iconic voices?
In Hollywood.
In Hollywood.
In Hollywood.
See, that's what hurts your Sam Elliott, right?
What?
Well, because Sam Elliott's not really Hollywood.
What are you talking about?
Sam Elliott is a famous Hollywood actor.
That's his definition.
No, but that's what I was trying to hint at.
No, he's in tons and tons of Western movies.
He was literally just in the Bradley Cooper movie that just came out.
Yeah, A Star is Born.
A Star is Born. A Star is Born.
I mean, he is a famous Hollywood actor.
Don't attack mine.
Just make your Gilbert Godfrey pick.
Just make the pick.
No, I'm not going that annoying.
I could never do that.
You're starting to sound like the most annoying voice in Hollywood.
Good.
All right.
Oh, man, there's three here I'm deciding between.
I wish I could just share them, but I'm not the last pick.
I'm going to go with Al Pacino.
Okay.
I feel like that is...
I don't know why I'm trying to get the vote since I can't win without the tier one.
You didn't go with the...
I didn't go with the annoying one.
You didn't go with the annoying voice.
No.
That one is...
It's a huge letdown.
Set us up not to say it.
Hey, nobody's picked.
If you want to let me change, I'll change.
No.
Mike, your turn.
All right.
I do want to hear it, though.
If we don't bring it up, I want to hear it.
So I had locked in my fourth,
and then I realized that there was another name on this list,
and I said, oh, crap, I can't lock in the fourth.
So I've been struggling.
The whole time Jason was trying to stall for time,
I was hoping he would go longer.
Look, I can keep going if you put me back on the clock.
Happy to do that for you, Mike.
Because one of these people, I could say literally one word,
and you'll know who I'm talking about, which I think that's pretty iconic.
If you can say one word in a certain fashion, you know who it is.
The other one, it's very similar, Jason,
where there's not like a particular
catchphrase but you know this person's voice like big time big time actor big time in commercials as
well all right i'm gonna go shoot okay i'll go with the person who has the one-word phrase, which is, whoa.
Oh, okay.
So I'm going to take – he's pretty hot right now, too.
He's hot, but this is not an iconic voice.
He's known not for his voice.
So you're going Keanu Reeves.
What?
He's not known for his voice, but his voice is iconic.
Sure, yes.
I think both of those things can be true.
I'm happy with your pick because it's not good.
I have James Earl Jones, Sam Elliott, Liam Neeson.
I thought of one in the 11th hour that I like more than all of my other options,
so I am going with Patrick Stewart.
Okay.
Patrick Stewart.
Kind of Jean-Luc against the Anthony Hopkins.
Pick card.
I had Alan Rickman on my short list. I had Alan Rickman on my short list.
I had Gene Hackman on my short list.
Sure.
The two that I was deciding between.
So I was between Al Pacino for the non-annoying.
Al Pacino and Samuel L. Jackson.
Sam Jackson was the guy.
Sam Jackson was perfect because he does commercial work, voiceover work.
Sam Jackson.
It was between Sam Jackson and Keanu Reeves for me.
But now when you think of Samuel Jackson, you have to get a Capital One.
One more time.
You have to get a Capital One card.
And I don't want to have to do that.
Yeah, that's true.
But the annoying one that has such an iconic voice.
Was it Fran Drescher?
No.
No, that is a very, that's too annoying.
Again, just like Gilbert Godfrey.
Steve Buscemi?
No.
Nathan Lane?
Chris Rock.
Oh.
Like Chris Rock.
I don't think that's very annoying.
No.
I'm not, that's very annoying.
That's what I said.
I'm not going annoying to the levels of Gilbert Godfrey and Fran Dresser.
I'm just saying these voices are voices that are iconic because we love their voices.
Chris Rock is iconic because it's its own thing, man.
He's got his own style. It's not that you just go, man. You know, he's got his own style.
It's not that you just go, man, I love Chris Rock's voice.
And obviously very subjective.
I mean, there are names that we all know are going to be in that category, but some people you like, some people you don't like.
I mean, obviously you would have won the whole vote if you went Chris Rock.
I mean, that would have just been the winner that you didn't pick.
The name that came to mind when I was before the show,
and I wasn't thinking about it in Hollywood Iconic,
once we really got clarity here from the owl,
I honed in on these names, but Robert Baratheon,
the character from Game of Thrones.
The character Robert Baratheon?
The actor who plays that.
And who is that?
I don't know.
Nobody knows.
That's why I didn't go with that.
Solid not pick. But I'm just saying. I didn't go with that. Solid not pick.
But I'm just saying.
I can't believe Arnold fell to the waivers.
Yeah.
Oh, my goodness.
That's a good one.
You know, I even wrote Whoopi Goldberg down.
And you didn't write Arnold?
She's got that iconic voice.
I wrote her name down.
Oprah?
Oprah, sure.
James Stewart, you know?
When you go, James Stewart?
Yeah, Jimmy Stewart, James Stewart. I can honestly say. I know who it is. um see it with james stewart you know when you go james stewart yeah jimmy stewart james stewart
i can honestly say it's a wonderful life i can honestly say it's a classic clint eastwood's
another one that's good i don't believe i've watched front to back one single jimmy well
you should see rear window you should do yourself a favor and grow grow up his voice was really
iconic in like the 40s yeah i don't do
black and white my friends literally part of the definition of iconic would be that it is pro it
is lasted a period of time as being an icon of industry oh absolutely but still remembered
yes that's also part of iconic part of's part of it. Whatever, man.
Whatever.
All right.
What'd you...
Well, I guess I got a button for this now.
What did we learn today?
We all learned the same thing.
Well, we definitely all learned about the bananas.
Yes.
I learned that the bottom of a banana actually has a name now.
Looking at the logo that we have here in our set,
I'm wondering if he's wearing
inside of that banana peel.
Our poor monkey friend, he's wearing a banana.
I learned that Mike
is a genius
on today's show.
I learned that the garage is considered
an invention.
Not just like,
oh, this is a little innovative. We're parking our car in here. No,
this, oh my gosh, I've invented the garage. We'll see you next time. Goodbye. I'll see you later.
