All 11 seasons. You're an idiot. No, you're an idiot. You know what it is? You guys don't know shit. You know what happened? You don't know shit. I just realized you're a fucking brain-dead dummy.

Yeah. There it is. Dude, no. Listen, no, the first season, Ryan Murphy?

No, oh, Ryan Murphy's, he's great. Here's the thing about Ryan Murphy. he didn't make Glee, and I love Glee. No,

40-0, man. No, no, no, listen. Here's what's wrong with American Horror Story. There'll be a good season, and then another one will come out, and it'll be like, what

Wrong. Yes. This is why Ryan Murphy is great, because he takes chances. Boom. Tell them. And you're not going to like everything he does. Right. I don't.

Dude, this is why I love Nicolas Cage. Sometimes you watch Nicolas Cage, and you're like, oh like everything he does. Right, I don't. This is why I love Nicolas Cage. Sometimes you watch Nicolas Cage and you're like, oh, this is laughably horrible. Sometimes you watch Nicolas Cage and you're like, well, he needs money. That's why that's funny. Now, at this point. But, bro, Nicolas Cage is a great actor.

Did you see the one with Pascal? Yeah, Pascal's in that? That shit is so good. Yeah, well, he's playing himself. It looked corny to me. Oh, it's really good. I'll watch it. I'll watch it.

There's this scene they have. There's this great scene where they're both on mushrooms. You know? And just the way they're acting with each other, it is so genuine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a good movie. What's it called? The Incredible...

Nicholas Cage, right? The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Yeah. It's actually a great movie. It's supposed to be really good. My buddy Kevin Eaton who was a executive producer of Workaholics.

Oh nice. Oh you guys want to hear something funny? My friend Tiffany Haddish is in that. What? You know Tiffany? Yeah.

You know what's funny is like so I tweeted out you know Workaholics movie got canceled by Paramount Plus. Yeah. Five weeks before we were about to start filming. Awful dude.

Okay so I tweeted so then and then they said that Workaholics doesn't fit their global strategy. Yeah. Too many whites. You know? Too many men. Too many whites in there.

So then I got sent this thing that they're making Zoe 101. What is that? With Jamie Lynn Spears. Paramount Plus is making that. That's what Disney does. Is that like Workaholics? No. Oh, so that's the thing that they're going to be making.

They're making this movie, right? Okay. So i tweeted out i was like yeah uh paramount plus their global strategy starts here y'all and i put a picture of jamie lynn spears in the in the thing right some gossip brag picked it up it was like workaholic star eric griffith shades yeah slams Spears. At least they said star. Yeah, baby. Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo. I heard the same thing. I saw the same shit. So, dude. So, Eric's never working for Paramount Plus. Look at his face.

Look at his face. At the Wise Guys pub. Woo, I'm making the gossip rags, baby. That's Wise Guys Vegas. The blast is hilarious. So, listen. So, okay. So, they're not doing the thing.

They're not doing the movie, the Workaholics movie. Well, Paramount's not, so they're trying to see if somebody else is doing it. Of course, right, which is so idiotic they're not doing it because it's already a hit. That's the thing. I get it if you don't want to make – I was like, well, you know, we're not going to make a thing with three fucking white dudes now because everyone's going to be brown. No, I said this on Riffin with Griffin. Fine.

That's the reason. Hot take. Fine, fine. But this already has' with Griffin. Fine. That's the reason. Hot take. Fine. Hot take. Fine. But this already has a built-in audience. It's a hit. You're just going to make money doing this shit.

It's a great show. It's going to lead to subscriber zoops. But the fucking craziest thing is. Subscriber oops? Yeah, well, because he interrupted. Oh. Right? So we have to.

I thought that was like a new thing. No, no, no, no, no. Subscriber oops? So look, ChrisLeah.com to go get your fucking. Hey, get your subscriber oops up. So listen. So listen, the point is, the point is, you don't have a job. Yeah.

You're not white. Yeah. You are brown. You are trans. So it's like, if the fact that you don't have this job now because they're not making white... There are other people not getting to work because of this global strategy and they were trying to

they were considering rebooting the franchise all female all female yeah trans chin would be Blake you think they would learn though with Ghostbusters that eats dick

there are movies that do well with, you know, like... Okay, but it's just like... I can do it. Hold on. Go ahead. Name one. Name a show. Fuck.
