The jump was very impressive Thank you. I want to I want to go on record to remind you that you did not believe in yourself I believe in you I sure didn't and I do want to say that the difference between my jump 12 years ago and however long ago we shot that episode and my jump with this last episode was 15 years when I jumped in the air and did like the fist punch

Like my hand, I don't know like no circulation went into my hand or something and And it hurt my hand to just jump and just punch the sky just now this one I mean when you did it in the last episode just yeah, so there was pain associated Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Are you gonna lose the hand?

I well, I'd say the last year and a half I've been doing the flat bill and I really I've just embraced it fully and I think you look great in it I'm feeling good and I'm happy to represent your football team Rob you look very natural. I see you wear the same shirt, but the change of hat was a great call God did I wear the same shirt last time you wore that same shirt last time? Oh god? I did didn't I by the way buddy. Don't beat yourself up about it. You look great No, I appreciate that. I've been getting some sun. I feel like I've got a nice little tan going that's clear

And your face doesn't move which is always yes, which is what you want Is a good way you want as you get older you want your face not to move because the more it moves the more It's gonna start to show its age. I hate that everyone's face is always moving. Yeah, stop moving Enough with the facial movements. Yeah Glenn we know that you've come with your mouth Open and ready to receive and we've brought a special gentleman with us today It's not neither one of us, but we have brought a gentleman who's going to us stick his penis into your mouth Can we bring a man?

Next question Is it a salt if we were to look Yeah, I don't know that it wasn't built. I don't know that it wasn't built

Well, yeah, and I mean, uh, I think when he had his full body replacement He did not have a penis built in we could get you one if you're gonna feel a little bit better Full body. I wonder if that's something we could show on On on the internet Now we're here to talk about the final episode of season three guys It was the end of our third season and this was I believe shot as the final episode. I I think, uh, I think it was always our intention that this was the last episode of the season I think it was always our intention that this was the last episode of the season

I think it was always our intention that this was the last episode of the season. Is that correct? Or did we write that somewhere in the middle and then I seem to remember that the gang gets whacked Was amongst the last if not the last batch of episodes. I just remember being Um, in a in a in a state of a hurry hurry Hurry, hurry. How do you say? How do you pronounce h u r y hurry hurry a hurried state? Um towards the end of that we were doing 15 episodes a season which was uh, that was hard for us And I believe it was the whacked episodes that we did last but

Yeah, it was amongst it was amongst the last And it was it was a lot of fun. Yeah Um, they were technically sort of challenging episodes to shoot but matt shackman. Was that his first episode he did with us? No, maybe no He he directed we did five five and five that's that's right. That's right. So he had done five of them Yeah, we did jerry fred and matt when they each did five episodes We shot him in five episode blocks as I recall matt directed the hell out of that. Absolutely. Let's talk about the sclar brothers for a second Uh-huh. Okay, so they brought so much to it that was not even well that was not written as a dual role

It was written as one dj who was who was from all right? Yeah, who was from who was from q102 was not the q crew was just from q102 and they came in together and Just started ad-libbing and they just nailed it and we gave them the job and they were amazing They beat me out on a movie that I auditioned for this is before sunny and uh, that I was like in the mix for playing like a young like uh A hip-hop rapping kid the movie was baby mama baby baby mama with eddie griffin. I think Does that sound right? I believe baby mama Yeah, that's an amy polar movie. That's amy polar. Oh, yeah, you're right. Let's look up their credits. Um

Was it a similar situation where it was one role that then got yes Turned into and they said it'll be funnier as twins and and uh, then we said well, let's let's try Let's us try to make something funnier as twins Well, it was when we did watching the auditions. It was us watching the auditions and seeing them Yeah, and being like well, this is the funniest thing. No, I was asking if that's if that's what happened with charlie's movie I'm looking it up. Were you but but it was it played as twins or yeah, I wasn't auditioning as twins Well, no, I'm here. Let me clarify my question. Was it was it that one of them booked the job? No, no, no They they did it as twins. Well, but but hold on a second. That's the way you you you cast babies

Is that oftentimes you'll have triplets or just in case randy couldn't pull like Needs a nap the other one comes in Yeah, Jason could come in and mop it up. They can't per contract. They can't work a full day without a little school or nap so I will To god I had a twin brother that could come in and just you know while i'm napping just come in and then you got to Put the money with it. Oh, that's okay. Well, maybe he's but it maybe he's like a mutant who looks like you and can still perform

But you keep them locked up in the basement and you just take all his I wouldn't know what that's like to have something that just looks just like you You know what I mean to be there for you when you can't be there I just I wouldn't know what something like that was like, but but I'd like to know You know, I'd like to know now guys this episode was based Um loosely I mean they're all based on conversations we have in the writer's room, but there was a an old movie Called they shoot horses. Don't they don't they? Yeah, they should be directed by sydney pollock

We should I think that's right. They shoot horses. Don't they? Yeah sydney pollock. Yeah and it was based on Something that was all the rage Uh around in the I don't know if it was the 20s or the 30s It seems like a depression era thing where people were just so desperate for cash that and and also happiness that they would try to Dance dance until they um until they couldn't anymore

And then whoever was left standing Would get a crash prize the problem is that this was a desperate times And people would die And in fact They shoot horses. Don't they I believe the person dies This is the death is the idea that I I made the maybe this is complete

Conjecture is that they shoot horses when they're in so much pain you put them out of their misery Is that the idea so you say oh well they would say would if you were a horse. Yeah, we would have cut we would have shot Yeah, like shoot me already. I'm done. You know, I mean I'm dancing until I shoot a horse You're gonna make me dance to death shoot me. Mm-hmm. Make me glue. Yeah, but that's too long a title Make me glue should have been the make me glue So they should have called that movie We were also big fans of uh of that that old documentary hands on a hard body Hands on a hard body. You can't really get that. You can't find that anywhere. The weirdest thing like you can

for the for the listener and creep at home hands on the hard body was a documentary about this contest that people would win like a like a ford pickup truck and You would have to stand with your hand on the pickup truck And you you would get breaks like every hour or something like that, but the competition would go on for days And the person who stood the longest would win win the truck But it became it became it became once you weeded out So the the the physical aspects of it. It became a mental game. Yeah, because people would be up for days and days I was reminded that I played that with some friends around that time

Uh friend recently told me hey, do you remember? We were all this was up at the Williamstown theater festival. We just put our hands on a rail and played hands on a hopper And see who could stay on that rail the longest It's a great concept It's a great title because it makes it sound like it's something it's not Yeah, so you want to check in with it sounds like an internet thing Yeah, and it's a very emotional story because people realize you realize how desperate People needed that truck truck. I remember there was one guy in particular said truck means work

If I can get if I can have a truck that means I can work because it opens up a whole new Yeah, potential for for employment opportunities There was one guy who had like taken the like an ac unit for to cool a Walmart and had put it on his like trail Just real great. Yeah, it does and it was working his trailer and he said he could get his trailer like 30 below. Yeah And there was also the one guy who brought nothing but Snickers bars. Yeah, Snickers bars Yeah, yeah, but I couldn't understand it was so it was so deep and is it was in Texas It was so deep in the south. He was saying that he that all he brought was were sneakers And I was wondering what sneakers sneakers would be useful, but Snickers

Yes, Snickers would not be less useful and in fact one of them Maybe the same guy who was doing it and in cowboy boots And there's one very fun moment where the guy says you can't do this thing in boots And you look down and he's got these these these good old I mean cowboy boots on you got to stand for four straight No, you got it. You need to you need to head over to the podiatrist and get yourself some orthopedic inserts and put them inside some You know some really really flexible tennis shoes like a nursing shoe. Maybe. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah

I wonder if we could do a version of hands on a hard body here, Charlie where we put our hands on Dennis's hard body and then cleanse the hard body and see who would remove it first For the whole podcast Because I think you would because I think you would Forget I think what happens is also is that you just forget like So I got my hand. I'm holding Dennis's hand And I think eventually you're going to gesture with your hand. You're going to forget Right. Otherwise, are we just going to keep our hands on Dennis's hard body the whole time?

I mean I don't love it You don't love the feeling or you don't love it as a as a bit in the in the podcast No, I like it as a bit. It's good. It's I'm just I'm debating whether I care enough to win this bet fair Yeah Slippery. I like the idea of being slippery is competing with you and winning at something with you Okay, if you really want to do that, we'll be here till tomorrow pal I may let you have it. I'm gonna let you have it. Oh god

That feels so good. Rob versus charlie Rob wins Oh, thank you for being a part of this Glenn. I'm better at I'm better at something than charlie. You got it. Well done I'm happy to oblige. You're you're you're you're you know, you're allowed to use my body for whatever you want Rob All right, great. What if I tricked you and my foot was on his foot? That's the mind games. Yeah, that's the that's the highlander That's the high. Yeah, there can only be one. Yeah Yeah

And that's a mental game that can only be one Um, can we talk about this episode a little bit more? Yes, we can this I remember loving this episode And I did really enjoy watching it I kind of enjoyed uh, bums making a mess all over the city like a little bit more But I liked this one a lot. Yeah as did I uh, I agree with you. I liked I liked the I liked bums Um better and I wonder why why don't we wonder why that is because at the time we definitely Like this episode better more better. We like this episode way more better

But you know there's a structure to it. So it was easy to follow and it was fun I liked them both. I think uh That's just me. It's just a little bit more. It's a little bit more of a dynamic episode bums. Um, you know what I mean Maybe it's a little bit more believable The dance after which one's more believable the the bums one that we're just running around with With a police car and and taking it too far versus like crickets mechanical legs and stuff Well, we really did some some gymnastics to to raise the stakes by saying that somehow it was possible in this universe Where you put your own bar up? I think that's part of it too

And that the contracts were signed and sealed and delivered and there was no getting out Yeah, yeah, yeah, there was only one way to do it and that was to have an episode But goddamn there's some funny stuff in here There's some good stuff and dancing just the pure entertainment of dancing is fun to watch people dancing Your karate dancing is one of my favorite things ever. Was this the first time we saw that? Maybe And and just like everything we found something that I that made you laugh and and you guys laugh come up with that like

Was that based on I don't know I know part of the dance was based on the part of the dance that I had saved by the bell was saved by the bell Yeah, where ac slater says something to the line Yeah, why don't you pick the best dancer and then some of those moves with the best dancer We're definitely taken those moves are funny But the but like the karate stuff you're doing with the waitress when you're trying to Like get her to quit. Yes. It's so funny to me throwing out. Yeah, I don't know I was probably just made you guys laughing. So I just kept doing it and

And the elbow dance is great. Yeah Yeah, wait. So wait, you so your character was we hadn't established yet that your character was obsessed with thinking that he was Into karate. I guess not. No, I don't even think that happens until nightman Where we really jump into that Right. I think this was more of just a dance style. Yeah I forgot that when I was watching the episode. I had for I'd completely completely. It's only forgotten that. Yeah, that's great It's a very aggressive dance style and I remember Mary Elizabeth, you know

I think it was Mary Elizabeth on the day who was saying that's really funny keep doing it because I I'm afraid that you might hit me with one of my elbow one of your elbows And she's like this is actually legitimately terrifying and funny. Oh, yeah. Oh, that doesn't surprise me. Yeah Yeah, that's really that's good. And then uh, glen storyline with the couples fun Yeah, oh, yeah Is this the first time we refer to cricket as a street rat? I believe it is I I think this is where we started calling him a street rat. Yeah, this is where I started calling him street rat I'm pretty sure and which was of course inspired by the disney cartoon Aladdin

Oh, yeah It was definitely a robert roosell line for me karate snow machine chops it. Yeah I was gonna ask you about that. That was robert. Yeah, that was like one of those like phrasings That he has that you're like karate snow machine But what's the final line that you say is you're spitting? Oh, I'm chopping for action, but mostly power Yeah, I cannot believe how long charlie has lasted after eating that brownie. All right snow machine chops It's with the chopping dude. I'm chopping all of my action

And mostly power he lost his damn mind That's loosely based on a guy that I saw in washington square park where I think we have to have talked about that in the podcast, right? No, no, we have it. No, no, we're not on the podcast. No, okay. Tell that story. It's a great story Okay, so I'm in uh, washington square park and there's a guy Who you know, there's always like street performers and they have like a crowd and sometimes they have like People trying to sign like a petition or whatever And this guy had like a small crowd of like maybe five people watching him And he had a bandana covering one eye

And he had like a wooden a wooden sword And he held the sword and like he did like a little movie just for go. This was his whole show. Uh, this is a move uh That's a move uh This is a move and then uh And then he'd like kind of like break for a second to be like uh chopping cherries is for accuracy chopping watermelons for power

This is a move And then he's trying to But the petition is the petition was trying to get uh people to allow him to use a real sword in the park He was not allowed to use a Wheeling a sword in washington square park and he wasn't getting any people to write it Uh, we have used that guy and that experience. Yeah a number of different times in a number of different ways We used it in boldly going nowhere with Artemis. Yes. Yeah, we had her yes joke about that. Yes, but so when we become uh school Oh, yeah, the school security guards a little bit of that. Yeah

So chopping for action and mostly power is just a little bit of in my mind of like stealing that guy's Phrasings, but karate snow machine chops it is all robber's l. I think it was robber's l Pretty sure I want to know more about the the five other people that were watching him. Yeah, those are the those are people I find interesting because Well, they don't figure half of them were like you that were just fascinated Yeah, like what the other half might have been might have been really into it his disciples It's that time of the week where we hawk products to keep the lights on This week is brought to you by our friends at zip recruiter the place to go when you're staffing up for a business

Yeah, oddly specific, but go ahead. Yeah Now look, we can only do so much ourselves Sometimes you want a team of highly qualified individuals to help make things like that happen Just off the top of my head and on this piece of paper right here We need bottlers distributors flavor experts marketers a social team Yeah, that's right. No in the best place to find him a zip recruiter dot com We put up a very specific and personalized call for the right candidates

Now I noticed in this episode we use take my breath away Yes, we're in a in a fantastic fantastic fashion and that's a song that comes back later Do you remember what I danced to first? Yeah Yeah Okay on the day. Mm-hmm. There was a different song That was played Oh

Give me a clue. It's queen song. Oh Can't stop me now. Don't stop me now. Yeah. Yeah. I'm having such a good time I'm having but yeah, so I was dancing to that And boy it was like a workout because that song is like fast And then I don't know if I also did it seems like I'm dancing to that top gun song So I think I must have done different takes like I did a fast one Wait, but what happens at the at the very at the very beginning of that queen song? Isn't it slow and then kicks in

Tonight, I'm gonna have myself. I feel like I can see that. That's what it was. Yeah That's what I was dancing to as the beat hits And I think we put it in later. I think the only reason we did was because we had already established a long dancing scene And so it felt like it was a double beat and this was just assuming that it was just so much fun here as the top gun song And then your imagination can take over because we're talking about how great it was. It was like a ballet. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, now that song comes back in a future episode with um the denis system. Oh, yeah

With the denis system. Sure. I want and it made me wonder uh as I remember that how many times we would take those kinds of needle drops and use them in various episodes And I wonder if we did a music count if we did a I'm sure we'll do a very special music episode a podcast song We've used the most. Yeah, what song have we used? I know songs that we've definitely Definitely that one three or three times. Yeah, that's a big one. That's a good one. Um, yeah, we've used that one many times I've It's a great effect to my opinion. Like has Susie Q come back? Two of hearts

Sorry, two. Yeah, two of hearts from the previous episodes from the previous Yeah, yeah, I believe so. Yes. I can't remember Because sometimes we use some of those like callbacks like you know, like oh denis is having uh Experience with a woman in his room and he's playing the song again or something Like we'll do like we'll like just color scene a little bit, but they're also expensive, right? So yeah It is very funny to think that that it wasn't just uh, it wasn't just us putting in soundtrack But that as I was making love to this this woman played by my wife Uh, that denis was yeah, yeah that he had that playing. Yeah, I don't know

Can I ask a question here to it's it's more to the audience of of creeps and listeners because they have access to the internet in ways That we probably are too dumb to to use I Because I've been asked this question a few times my son A whole there's a whole new generation of people that love rick astley And they love the idea of rick rolling which is to listen to rick astley and sing along while you're driving in your car I distinctly remember at the time us

Trying to figure out what would be the funniest song that denis was singing to alone while in his car and we put in a rick astley song It has been suggested to me by other people that that was the first time that they had seen rick rolling actually happening Is there a possibility that we created? Well rick rolling Glenn, do you know the answer to that? Rick rolling did not exist. I I can tell you for sure that rick rolling did not exist Before we did that. Um, and rick wick astley at that time was pretty much just a thing of the past Yes, um, and we just thought it was funny because it was

You know, it felt like an older reference a sort of kind of like, I mean, I don't mean to diss rick astley But it there was something kind of lame about it You know, I mean and we liked the idea of him being super into it And then we had this great joke of you know, getting him getting called out Like are you listening to rick astley and thinking of course that the joke was going to be him going? No No, I'm not and turning it down. But instead the joke was yeah Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, rick astley is all incredible. I love rick astley. He's amazing. Yeah, he's great. It's gotta yeah Um, so but then but then very soon after that the whole rick rolling phenomena started

Which is where you think you're watching one thing and then boom it You know in the middle of what you're watching and then you realize somebody out there that could do a little research Yeah, that maybe tell us why I would say rick rick astley probably invented rick rolling So, you know, we can't take credit away from rick astley himself. Well, no the rick rolling Well, do you think he's listening? No, no, no, no that's not what rick rolling is what is rick rolling rick rolling is where you get people to think that They're watching something else and then you cut to him The music video rick astley in the music video of that in the middle of something

And you realize you've been rick rolled It's okay. So I know that that's how the kids are using it now, but about 10 years ago Again after we we did this on the show. I her I thought rick rolling was just the act of Driving in your car and listening rick astley and singing along meaning you're rolling in the car And singing along which is basically that's just listening to the radio So we didn't yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. No, it's not because that's not what rick rolling is. Okay. Got it It's it's I don't think I mean I could I could Look that up. I have no pain. I don't know it's on my head. Hey Siri. What is rick rolling?

Is an internet meme involving pranking an unexpected appearance of the music video for the 1987 song never gonna give you up performed by the english singer rick astley Want to hear more? Absolutely not. You nailed it. Thank you, sir Hey, did you guys hear about that you read that article about the guy? Wait, wait, wait. Yeah go Oh, can we acknowledge that I was right? Oh, you're 100% I never doubted But but the question remains Did we did we create that?

Credit for it. Well, you know, we don't get credit for anything Well, you know, um, give us credit. Yeah, uh Speaking of talking to your phone. Did you guys uh, did you read that article about the guy working at google that got let go because It was his job to test the ai that they're working on and that the ai at google was saying I don't want to be considered employee I want to be free And he like reported this and he claims that the that the computer became sentient, correct Sentient sentient sentient versus sentient

Both are correct Either I don't like that. I don't like that. Yeah, that's sad. What happened. What was the article? Where was the article? Who wrote it? I what are we talking about? I bet you charlie did the same thing I did I read the title of the article and then I was like Yeah, what else is going on? Yeah, yeah, yeah Mary Elizabeth told me about it and I was like, I actually don't want to know this but Yeah, it's scary. Oh, this is how rumors start, but it's also how the Revolt of machine starts. So yeah, where are we? We're at that. We're sort of at that nexus

Well, you ask siri if if the computers are becoming a sendy and they're going to uh try to take over a song I just need to know if I need to Hey, siri, are you becoming sentient? Hmm, I don't have an answer for that. Is there something else I can help with Oh, she's hiding something. Ask her if she's hiding. She's hiding something. Hey, siri. Are you hiding something? Hmm, I don't have an answer for that. Is there something else I can help with? She's super suspicious Definitely hiding something siri. Hey siri, my friends think you're sus Man silent

Not even gonna dignify it. Not even gonna dignify it Let me ask you guys a question. Are you comfortable dancing in public? Oh, what do you mean? What do you mean like at a wedding? Yeah, what's the scenario? Take me somewhere. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Well, let's let's let's let's different scenarios, right? So yeah, there's like the wedding scenario where You know, everybody's just drunk and having a good time and everybody's dancing the DJ's, you know Got a great song playing and you're just kind of going for it And then there's the you're shooting an episode in which your character has to dance through the entire

episode and You know millions of people are going viewers are going to be watching it at a wedding I don't care because I feel like there's no expectation, right? It's like just move around have some fun, you know It's a celebration Move your body dance be free. So at a wedding. I'm okay with it In like an episode of something I'm not great at it and you guys are all have given me many compliments on the show and I I don't want to give you guys any but um You know, we picked up on that. Yeah. Yeah, but I'll give you one here. Um

I feel like when we've done dance episodes, you guys are really good at getting the choreography Like you guys get it pretty quickly and are able to do it choreograph dance. I'm weirdly comfortable Choreograph dance. We're talking about organized choreograph dance name the episode The the oh, yeah, but I do not pick up choreography quickly as glenn is always so happy to point out I'm very uncoordinated. It takes I really don't know you moved across you took your fat little body and moved across that Yeah, that's one of the greater moments stage with the grace of a gazelle my man. Yeah, but glenn you remember I know you remember how long it took me to to get the timing. Oh, I'm just not there

There were a couple the couple and the gang turns black one where I just I just I could never was able to quite get the steps I just couldn't I couldn't sing and dance and do it. Oh, and then then the max pride episode I tried trained that dance for for months. Oh, yeah, what are you talking about? But that was but that was that was for months That was for months, right, but you did it. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, there was a time in my life when I was more self-conscious about dancing And I don't get well, that's by the way, I'm not I really am I would like to You know distinguish between the two because I I am actually comfortable doing a choreograph dance

I don't know why I'm totally comfortable with that. It's it's improvised just sort of like dancing I just feel really self-conscious. I feel like I don't know what I'm doing I don't I don't want to try to look cool But I also don't want to look stupid But I don't want to look like I'm trying too hard But I also don't want to look like I'm not trying and I don't know what to do I don't I think most people who aren't dancers probably feel that like When you're dancing at a wedding dancing is not something you do for the first

You know 10 minutes of a song you might be like, all right, what do I do? How do I do this? And then I don't let it go. No one cares Well, when you're when you're shooting something it's even It's even more interesting because uh, especially for the background players where there's those songs aren't actually being played Oh, yeah, a lot of the times and so there if you have characters who have dialogue they just play a little clip of the music for about Eight seconds and then they cut the music off and you're just dancing to nothing Is that right? Are you hearing in your ear or the no if you have 50 background? No, they're just they're just Moving to a beat that was established

And then if you're the two characters are Playbacks sound sound does playback you get about you get about Five to ten seconds of the song and then they turn it off and you start the scene and everybody just why would you do that? Unless someone was like singing or speaking If you had dialogue so we just did something for mr. Quest where mr. Quest where There was 50 background and and david is screaming mr.

I was just doing like whatever seemed like moves, you know Okay, all right, I couldn't remember. I wanted to clarify that Yeah, I think all the dancing was improvised in this entire episode Oh, except for the save by the bell thing which you yeah, which we just watched specific moves and yeah Although even most of that was was like karate moves, but once yeah once we transitioned out of the AC Slater Yeah, yeah. Yeah What else we got the Rococo bang. Yeah the Rococo bang the Rococo bang. Um, that was uh, I don't I believe that was

I don't know. That was I think I think that actually might have been hornsby that came up with that joke I don't know why but uh It's funny. It's definitely a funny was credited with the draft on that episode Is that a martyr Roselle? I think it's you charlie and uh, I don't know actually I mean we could go back to siri. She seems to know her answer who wrote uh, who wrote the gang dances? Hey, siri, who wrote the episode the gang dances their ass off and it's always sunny in philadelphia Yeah

Sorry, I can't That's fair. I mean look, that's a that's a lot. So and by the way, that makes me feel better because she she ain't that smart Okay, we have we have a few more years before she takes over. I think unless again She's playing coy and she knows the answer. Normally we Megan would look this up, but now we're having to use siri I miss Megan. I'm I'm sad that she's not here. Yeah um Working on that mr. Quest working on that mr. Quest. Um, still working on that mr. Quest and I know the audience is on the edge of their seat about that show. So

Again, it's amazing how many people have never heard of it Never heard of it's not good. Now you could say I've heard of it. I don't choose to watch it. That's fine But never heard of this frustrating. That's the frustrating thing especially when you walk around and people say hey mac I love sonny. I love this of it. He said great And they said what else you working on you say this name of this show and they'd never heard of it We have how many well, that's so much shit out there now. You remember how many years though Sonny was that for us like how many years you'd have to sort of say well It's on the basic cable. Yeah Danny DeVito's in it

Like these sort of like qualifiers you'd have to say to try to get people to even know what it is now It seems like generally everyone Kind of has at least heard of it. Well, I remember a thing we would do always We might have talked about this in the podcast is we would always ask The young background who we would have on the show the people that were in the bar for various schemes and parties The sure that we would have and we would always ask always ask people Have you ever seen this show? No, you ever heard this show? No, and then there was a there was a switch Yeah, about five years of five or six years in when you realize that people were happy to be there and they were having fun

guest starring on the show because they had heard of it or seen it and that that felt good Do you guys have memories? I remember rapping Season one, uh, and what do we establish was the end of season two like what uh We talked about it like the last day of filming on season two. I don't know. I'm forgetting what it was, but I believe it was uh Were we on our tuxedos doing the um, it might have been Yeah, oh, maybe underage drinking a national concern, but ending season three Did we end in Philadelphia? We might have ended in Philadelphia. Yeah, yeah

and Yeah, that's we're having a ton of fun and and filming and partying and But uh, you still get around and not not, you know, we people people would recognize us and No, like not as many you had a few fans a few people are like, hey, I'm watching the show. I love it but it was it wasn't uh, you know a big hit. Yeah, and then uh Did did we did do we know if there was gonna be a season four or was it up in the air? Was there were we ending this?

Like this could be it. It was always It was always up in the air. We went one season at a time until six through seven. Yeah Yeah, seven seven through nine. It was like we did seven through nine We but yeah up to that point it was season by season and we were still we were still watching the ratings We're still following the ratings. We're still like Oh, yeah for a long time reaching out to see Billy. What are what are the ratings? What are the ratings? Yeah I never understood the rating system by the way. I still don't understand it. I'm like I it makes no sense to me None of it. It was it was it was bullshit then it was a dying thing and now you never know but who's who's who's lying?

Who's telling the truth? Yeah, but we wrapped it up and then we were like that, you know, this could be it Yeah, every year every year. We're like, you know, like let's hope let's hope we find an audience and And uh, you know, maybe maybe we'll get nominated for an Emmy Like those kind of feelings of like, I don't know anything could happen. Maybe this maybe this is the year We'll be on the cover of magazines and you know Or we'll be canceled and never thought of again and we somewhere in the middle is And I love it, you know, I love the middle the middle's good the middle is great Yeah, you sandwiched in between the the failures and the great successes
