This is a HeadGum original.
Previously on the HeadGum Podcast.
This is Durst Traps.
You guys are familiar with Thirst Traps?
Yeah.
Where you post a photo, for those who don't know,
when you look kind of hot.
Fred Durst, to me, to mine eyes,
is not that unattractive of a man
but
in the mid 90s
you guys were born
in the 90s
but I was sort of
coming of age
during this time
yeah
and as a teenager
he was considered
very cool
and yes
indeed quite hot
really
yeah
okay
well I've pulled up
a couple photos
of Fred Durst
and I thought we could
kind of come to a consensus vote whether or not it's a thirst trap or not.
Whether it's hot enough to call it a Durst trap.
Okay.
I feel like the intro doesn't get enough love in terms of it being all about... You started without our permission.
How so?
You just started too fast.
I was like fixing things.
We were talking about a technical issue.
That is ongoing, we should say. Yeah. I was like fixing things. We were talking about a technical issue. That is ongoing, we should say. Yeah.
I can't hear myself. Am I sounding
good to you guys? I can't hear you.
Is your mic on? It says it's
on. What about this? That's better?
Now I hear you.
God, that's so much worse.
Now we can just hear you properly.
No.
That was good. Thanks. I really needed to hear that, actually. Not you. We're hear you properly? No. That was good.
Thanks.
I really needed to hear that, actually.
Not you.
No, not you. We're talking about Emma's joke, about how your voice is bad.
Four on one today, huh?
This is messed up.
We've got Emma.
What's that?
As opposed to any other day.
Three on one would be fine.
Yeah, three on one is better.
You're hearing their voices we've got two New Yorkers
in
from the east coast
you've got Emma Foley
on the sax
Marika Brownlee
on the fax
rounding it out
we've got
what's that
woo
you said woo
yeah
it's hard
we've talked about this
so much
again
one two three
four screens
five if you count
the monitor
for camera one.
sound the same?
No, I'm saying,
this is not how
I wanted to start the show.
We've got a lot to get to,
by the way.
Okay, great.
And then we've got
Ali Khan and
Anya Genovskaya
bringing up the rear.
He did it.
Really nice.
I nailed it the first,
I forget why
I was watching this.
I think I was trying
to get inspiration
going forward from the past. Because if you can't learn was watching this. I think I was trying to get inspiration going forward from
the past because if you can't learn from the past
history is bound to repeat itself. Allie
you agree? Yeah I agree. That's good.
He singled you out because Jewish.
Yeah. No I got that. Oh my
God. Is this
what the whole hour is going to be?
It's going to be you guys catching me
in some kind of. You're trying to cancel
me. That's what's happening.
This is gotcha journalism.
Yeah.
Not a sponsor.
What is going on with this table?
Don't.
Marika, don't.
Marika, can you show the table?
No, please don't. It's not in frame right now.
Can you pick the table up and bring it into the frame?
We don't show tables for free on that show.
We don't show tables, that's true.
That's for our OnlyFans.
This sucks.
Can we go down the line? Let's start with Emma
as if I'm reading a book.
What you guys were in the middle of doing.
All four of you
looked really busy.
And if you could just go down the line and say what you
were busy with that I pulled you away from to do
this show. Let's start with Emma.
I was editing social videos for HeadGum Podcasting, your superlatives.
Really important because that's a HeadGum original.
Anya?
It's not.
I was kind of in a conversation with like three different departments about some ad reads that need to go up like tomorrow.
Like yesterday.
Yeah.
Fuck.
Allie?
Like yesterday.
Yeah.
Fuck.
Allie?
I was compiling brand logos and guidelines to make really cool cue cards for a shoot coming up.
A branded shoot, we should say.
Yeah, a branded shoot. Making money for the network that keeps shows like this afloat.
Yes.
Seeing numbers you'll never even touch.
Of course.
Yeah.
And you mean for this show or ever in my life?
Both.
Marika?
Marika?
show or ever in my life?
Both.
Marika?
I was setting up, I was talking to Andrew Pyle, our CTO
over Google Meets and setting up
a server.
And also re-networking the office.
That was what you pulled me away from.
The way he won't let you
speak.
Speak, yeah.
So true, queen.
You guys flew halfway across the country
all the way across the country
we should say
unless
unless you take the
country as like
we're in Ohio
we're at your house
yeah we're in
Sugarloin Falls
the last package
that I had to ship there
for my mom's birthday
said Shagring
Falls
doing this show
perfect to scale
replica by the way
of the studio
set up in my
parents garage
that's where you
rewatch the old tapes
yeah that's the thing
I wish
because I just went
to the dead and company show
it was the final one
in San Francisco
and you know
the thing with
the grateful dead
is that people
listen to the old shows
right
they're like oh there's these tapers and they tape every show and you can listen to with The Grateful Dead is that people listen to the old shows right they're like
oh there's these tapers
and they tape every show
and you can listen to every show
yeah the bootlegs
and um
tell me about
I think it'd be interesting
if people did that
for the HeadGum podcast
right
so people set up
like a tape deck
and they're recording
their speakers
at home
this podcast
coming out of the speakers
yeah
and it's like
oh my god
like they were really cooking
spring 23
you know what I mean
that's not
that's not the same thing That's not the same thing.
No, we would have to be doing live.
What you can do is, when we eventually
go on tour, ask people to bootleg
our live shows.
Yeah, we should
provide tape machines for
the people to put them on the pole.
Get some old camcorders, and people
can wear little
trench coats
and like
record them
um
speaking of
uh
Katie Moose
in the studio
for the first time ever
I think
what do you mean
she's never
well she's always in
I should say
on
I think
and um
she
she made it
I think it was
because you guys
are in town
and what's that definitely was I mean she's been here a lot for the past couple of weeks because of the branded show I think. And she made it. I think it was because you guys are in town.
Yeah.
What's that?
Definitely was.
I mean,
she's been here a lot for the past couple of weeks.
Because of the branded show.
Yeah.
She's done like overnight.
Watch my mouth.
What is this?
But she poked her head
into the studio
as I was setting up
and she was like,
by the way,
we haven't forgotten about the...
Yeah, the squeaking.
So loud.
We had to push the whole desk back because of needing enough room for the producer cam,
for all the cables that are never plugged into the right thing.
Because every show has a different setup, by the way.
I try to stick to the Chef Kevin method.
I try to stick to the Anya Casey approved method.
But every time I come in here, this cable
is plugged into this hard drive. This fucking
thing is set up for some live stream that
barely happened, by the way. I mean, I'll say
Chef Kevin was the last person to be in here.
Really? I'll say that right now.
Yeah.
Katie poked her head in and she said,
we haven't forgotten about the tour. We're just trying to figure out some shit.
And we're trying to... She basically said, and I don't know if I should say this on air, that money's tight.
We were thinking like San Bernardino.
Mm-hmm.
Sort of, yeah.
Like as like the farthest that we could afford to have you go.
Maybe Bakersfield.
San Luis Obispo.
That seems, that's a couple hours.
College town.
Yeah.
That's kind of cool. College town. That feels like too far. That's too far. If it starts with San Luis Obispo. That seems, that's a cool hours. College town. Yeah. That's kind of cool, college town.
That feels like too far.
That's too far, yeah.
If it starts with San, it's considered.
San Francisco.
Yeah, maybe Santa Ana.
Too far.
Where the wind comes from.
Where they make wind.
San Antonio.
Yeah.
Way too far.
We cannot.
Sands Jeff.
Interesting.
At the Vegas Sands Resort.
Vegas Sands Jeff Resort.
You mean, you meant like in the French, like without you.
In the French Quarter, in the Bayou?
No, she meant like without you.
Like Sands.
I feel like we're not connected.
Is it Comic Sands?
Because that was good and you didn't even react.
I did.
I built off of it.
I yes-anded.
I yes-sanded.
You didn't even say hello to me when I walked in this morning.
Yes, I did.
I walked over specifically. I interrupted a conversation. I said, hi, Emma. I didn't even say hello to me when I walked in this morning. Yes, I did. I walked over specifically. I interrupted
the conversation. I said, hi, Emma.
I didn't even do that to Marika. To Marika, I walked
by and was like, hey, what did I say?
Me?
What is this? Should we tell
Jeff what we learned yesterday in our
head gum bonding activity
about the Great Wall of China?
That it's constructed. Oh, yes, yes.
I thought of him. I thought of him.
I thought of you.
It was the consistency of sand.
No.
What is it then? It's even better.
Better than that?
Yeah.
It's like pieces of it
are like stuck together
with glutinous...
The mortar is made
out of glutinous rice.
Yeah, that was a fun fact
that we had to learn
during a team bonding activity.
Why did you guys do that?
Marty.
Yeah.
Yeah, we played like an all-in. I got to miss it, but then I heard that? Marty. Yeah. Yeah, we played
like an all-in.
I got to miss it
but then I heard
it was kind of fun.
Honestly.
It was fun.
And I mean,
Anya's saying that
because she won.
My team, I think,
was dead last
the entire time.
But the good news is
I'm not competitive
in that way.
I had such a blast.
We were in first place
the whole time.
It was me, Casey, Brad,
and Sage.
And I think I was in there. I was on Anya's team. It was me, Casey, Brad, and Sage. And I think I was in there.
I was on Anya.
That's beautiful.
Sage was fast, really.
I have to say.
It was almost unfairly stacked
because I think it was
Anya, Brad, Sage, me,
and Casey, I think,
was on our team.
And Jeff was not there.
I'm hearing a buzzing
just FYI.
I am too.
That's just the energy
in the room.
I mean, it's a buzz
with this shit.
It is electric. I'm liking the with this shit. It is electric.
I'm liking the everyone IRL.
It's electric.
That'd be a good burnt rice.
Jeff's being really goofy.
You're not being combat.
It's because you're with the ladies.
Yeah, there's like a feminine energy in the room.
I do want to pitch another rice parody to Only Girl in the World by Rihanna because the bridge of it sounds like let me make you rice and stove rice.
And I already thought that, so I'd love to iterate on that one.
It's like, let me make you rice.
That's so good.
What makes you feel like it's the only grain in the world. Yeah. That's so good. What make you feel like it's the only grain in the world?
Yeah.
That's really good.
Like I'm the only char that you'd ever love.
And this is why people think it's easy to do what I do.
It's when you see somebody take a crack at it and it's not the same.
But that's exactly what you'd say.
No, if it was, want you to char the grains like I'm the only parboiled in the world, then it kind of slant rhymes.
Let's check in.
Emma has post-production on the short you're doing.
I'm still waiting to hear back from festivals.
And I also want to just correct the record from last time.
I can do the sound edit.
I didn't have enough time because
of here's the thing about head gums here that people don't understand they're not super supportive
of outside endeavors would you say like you're this is a place and correct me if i'm wrong marika
because you've worked here you are well because no because what i was going to say uh is that
you kind of have to hide your other passions you know what i mean like like on
your you you host the love motel an online radio show i will say something about the love motel
that is funny which is and vis-a-vis what you're saying i've had a little um not
i've had a little flyer i have a Love Motel flyer with little like,
you can like rip off the phone number.
Tear offs, yeah.
857-DIAL-LOVE.
It's been in the kitchen since,
pretty much since my first day.
I put it up because I thought it'd be cute.
And like three weeks ago,
Marty was like, what is that?
Who does that?
We talked about that specifically
and how it's like my little personal project.
In my interview for so long,
it was on my resume
it was like part of the thing that i like it was how i got hired he had no idea he was like it's on
the actual radio he had looked at me like i was crazy right major killer you have to plug your
shit you know what i mean like you don't be like bashful about like extracurricular what's that
you're you're nodding your head like you understand, but I'm not sure you do.
Basically, like you do the Love Motel.
You should be saying that every day you come into the work.
I just thought it was funny that my boss didn't know. No, I agree.
But at the same time, you can't expect anyone to read your mind, right?
Like if you're in romantic partnership with someone, you have to ask for what you want. You know't expect anyone, you know, to read your mind, right? Like, if you're in romantic partnership with someone,
you have to ask for what you want.
You know what I mean?
You can't be, like, sulking, honestly.
Is this an audition?
For?
Co-host?
Yep.
It is the supervising producer to co-host track.
Amir basically said on last week's episode,
can I help you, Marga?
There's a lot of buzzing in my ear and I'm
scared that's affecting the recording.
I'm hearing it crystal clear.
It's okay. You hear it? No, no, no.
I think it sounds good.
You have to ask
for what you want in any
partnership.
Shh.
We're listening. We're doing
deep listening
and here's the thing if grace harper can't get that out then i think she's shit canned i think
it's oh you know what it might be it might be jeff's mic because it i you definitely had to
turn that way up right for us to hear it i just turned it down and still there but i can't hear
it no i think it's okay i think it's okay okay i can it's like so subtle that i can't tell if i'm imagining it yeah it's more just like i'm
scared it's messed up well here's the thing we'll hear about it in the comments uh what were you
talking about amir did you just call me amir you You were talking about Amir. What were you talking about? Amir?
Yeah.
Got it.
Asking for what you want in relationships?
I fucking think that's what you were saying.
It didn't make sense.
It wasn't really landing with me, but.
How do you do that in your relationship?
I don't feel comfortable talking about that.
Okay.
Here's what's off limits for me.
Any interpersonal relationships, any intrapersonal relationships, like that part of me that I can only access, you know, that one wonderful time of the year, we're talking Christmas,
where I'm generous. That's generous season. And now it's summer. I'm in the thick of being selfish.
Where I live live absolutely off limits
and I would never do that
to any of you guys.
He follows the Scrooge calendar.
You know I've been
I've been trying to find
like my tiny Tim.
I think it might have to be Pyle.
Just like a scrappy young lad
who I need to like
help out on Christmas morn.
He sent a cooked goose
to his door next.
First it was flowers.
Yeah.
He's the only person I got a
birthday gift for this year to date.
My sister and dad both
had birthdays and I only got, yep.
I want to know what your gag budget is
for the show. I don't know.
All I know is that I didn't.
No, I know.
Here's what happened.
I had a credit card.
So I graduated from college.
I got a job writing for a TV show where they overpaid us to do not a lot of work.
And that was when I got a credit card.
The credit limit was way too high.
It was good for what I was making then.
Got fired at the beginning of the pandemic.
Had this credit limit for a long time.
I treated it like a gift card.
I couldn't do it.
I got rid of any credit, any line of credit that I had.
Debit card out the wazoo for two years.
Should we pull that up again?
No, we should not.
Okay.
I just recently got a credit card and it's happening again.
Okay, stop.
How?
What do you mean how?
What are you slinging on?
So when Hollywood Handbook came,
they barely even talked about this, by the way.
I spent $270-something dollars.
Almost $300, actually.
Because Hayes' was $250 and Sean's was like $35.
When I saw, you sent me a screenshot
because I didn't believe you that you were doing it.
100%.
Wait, what did you do?
He sent them edible arrangements.
I saw a receipt.
It was $300.
It was $300 total.
And one was really big and one was really small.
And they didn't talk about it at all.
I had to bring it up.
They didn't react at all.
They didn't think it was funny at all.
Nothing happened.
They did not compare notes like we thought they might.
I really thought it would be the first thing they said
it would break the ice.
They'd be like, why did you send us fruit in a bag?
They were like, just thanks for the fruit.
Yeah, and then Sean was like, I was a hit at a party.
I was like, you were a hit at a party.
You thought they were going to do like a measuring contest?
How do they know that one's smaller and one's bigger?
That whole show is a dick measuring contest.
That's what we should do next.
But to answer your question, gag gift budget,
it's just whatever the credit limit is.
Yeah, because I'll figure it's just whatever the credit limit is.
Because I'll figure it out.
That's my whole fucking philosophy.
Do you want to tell people what your idea was for The Love of Dogs?
No, I want to do it.
Okay, we're not doing it.
What?
I'm not going to be in this room with a bunch of dogs. Bond of the Week. This one's not an actor, but I'm going to pitch Emma Foley as the director of the week.
This one's not an actor,
but I'm going to pitch Emma Foley
as the director of the next 007.
Hell yeah.
I love that.
You'll take it,
or you were born for this role?
I will deign to,
if I have the time.
It's a big commitment.
Schedule depending.
Yeah.
And you don't care about the fact
that you probably get like two million dollars
to do that
and you're like
if I have time
like if I get through
factually
if I record enough
episodes of girls on porn
maybe I'll have time
to do a storyboard
for the next bomb
yeah
got it
I've never seen
any of the bombs
that's a fresh
new perspective
I think Phoebe Waller-Bridge
wrote on the new one
the newest one
have you seen
Austin Powers?
What if it's indie women directors doing these Greta Gerwig?
Yeah.
What is that about?
Stay in your lane, girls.
Disgusting.
P.U.
Yeah, what's the deal?
Yeah, what's up with that?
Have you seen Austin Powers?
Yes.
So just make it like that.
Grace, cut that out.
Emma, have you seen Austin Powers?
Mm-hmm.
So make it like that.
Okay.
There's like a joy to this show.
I don't know what else to say.
This is like, I would say that,
huh, kind of interesting.
There's, do you think we put on airs on this show?
Or do you think we're ourselves
and there's just a general air?
A general air?
Of joy!
I got an email.
I got an email
from something called ReJoy.
So you've heard of B-Joy?
No.
You've never heard of B-Joy?
It's like a personal mantra of mine.
B-Joy?
You can't ask have you heard of a
personal mantra of mine. I joy? Yes. I'm going to ask, have you heard of a personal mantra of mine?
I talk about it all the time.
By the way, now we know who listens to the show.
Now we know who listens to the show.
Marika knew about it.
I knew about jarred joy.
Okay, that's even more specific.
We know that you like to be joy.
I didn't know that your personal mantra is be joy.
I also thought everything personal, intrapersonal, and interpersonal was off limits.
Not mantras. I said interpersonal relationships. If intrapersonal, and interpersonal was off limits. Not mantras.
I said interpersonal relationships.
If anything should be off limits, it's mantras.
Well, it's a relationship with yourself.
That's the most personal of all.
This is so not how I wanted this episode to go.
Can I do my Bond of the Week?
Yeah.
Dane DeHaan.
Who?
I met him.
Who is that?
Where?
I made him LOL.
Truly.
He lost it.
I told him about my brother's breakaway pants oh my god sorry he's in
abenheimer oh which we're so excited to see him we're about to see he's back i think we just we
we do have to just quickly pause and say for the pod that today is a really really big day for me
anya and marika emma did not want to see abenheimer because it's too scary. She never heard of it. She never heard of it. It wasn't because it was going to be scary.
And actually, I like scary.
Okay, I'm sorry for putting words on your mouth.
It's not too scary.
She just never heard of it.
Words on your mouth?
We're doing Barbenheimer tonight.
I got my nails done for it.
What is this show?
Thank you.
Do you get it?
Different than we've ever done it before.
They could be Barbie.
That's true.
What's up, girls?
My nails are bad.
Mine are shit, but I'll show you.
I'm a biter.
I'm a biter, ladies.
Nervous as hell with anxiety issues to match.
Let's talk about Rejoy.
I'm sorry.
Ani is giving me this look that's like... No, it's good. I'm sorry. So, okay.
Ani is giving me this look that's like.
No, it's good.
I'm with you.
It means joy again.
Okay.
Or reply to joy.
Oh, regarding joy.
R-E.
W-R-S.
Fuck me.
W-S-R-T.
Right?
W-S-R-T? With? W-S-R-T?
With specific regards to.
Oh.
Can we get like a fucking.
You made that up, it's not a thing?
Just like, what are those ones that Pyle likes, the office chairs from Design Within Reach
that are like $50,000?
The aero chairs.
That one, yeah, Aeron.
That's an Aeron.
Why don't we have those?
Because we can't afford it.
I know, but you know, we can't afford it. I know.
You know, we can't afford to have this noise.
I know.
It honestly only happens to me and Allie.
And now I guess Jeff because Casey, it never makes noise for like that.
We have good little stools in that.
Do you like the stools in the New York studio?
I like those.
They're fun.
They were originally Jake and Micah's matching desk chairs.
Do you remember what I didn't know they were?
Yeah, that was so funny.
Anya found out near New York.
Exactly the same.
I didn't really interact with Micah that much, and then one day someone said something, and I was like, whose brother?
Because Jake's been on fraternity leave for like a year.
It was before that
I didn't know Micah that well
now I know
I think that my
Bond of the Week
is Judi Dench
wow
because wouldn't that be funny
if she comes in
and she's a new role
she demoted herself
to Bond
to 007
yeah
did you guys ever watch
Doctor Who
no
got it
should I
no
no
okay
so be joy is a personal mantra of mine okay I have two one is Did you guys ever watch Doctor Who? No. Got it. Should I? No. No. Okay.
So be joy is a personal mantra of mine.
Okay.
I have two.
One is get wise and the other one is be joy.
Yeah.
I keep getting these emails from a company called Rejoy, which is a hydration. I think it's like an Athletic Greens ripoff.
Sponsor of the show.
So I'm just trying to, I guess, instigate a cease and desist.
When should I drink Rejoy, according to this email?
Rejoy is hydration to replenish your fluids and electrolytes.
As such.
You said replenish.
Sorry. as such you said replenish sorry that was really funny
I liked it so much
it was cute
oh we gotta figure this shit out
Jeff we're all being
joy right now
I believed
Allie.
I did not believe that read from Rika.
Try it again.
Well, she's being joy and she's getting wise.
Was that the other one?
The other one is getting wise, yeah.
Oh, wow.
I felt that duo come together.
Rejoy is hydration to replenish your fluids and electrolytes.
As such is good to drink all day.
Wow.
This says verbatim.
And then it says, so, here are more specific tips.
The most common usage is first thing in the morning and about 30 minutes prior to a workout.
Or when mental clarity is at a premium.
I feel like if you're kind of real clear-headed. I'll never get there. Yeah. What's that? That's never going to happen. I'm never going to at a premium. I feel like if you're kind of real clear-headed.
I'll never get there.
Yeah.
What's that?
That's never going to happen.
I'm never going to be at premium.
Holy shit.
You heard it here first.
What?
Are you okay?
Yeah.
I'm just saying, like, I would want Rejoy to get me there.
I don't want to already be there yeah if I'm at a
if it's at a premium
then I don't need
your product
because I'm at premium
yeah
which at that point
you've already been joy
you don't need to
re-become it
yeah
and I think that's
a good thing to say
did you throw
out a break already
oh we should do that
we'll take a break
and I don't think
we have any ads
on this episode
imagine if it was Rejoy
natural marketing what is it Take a break. And I don't think we have any ads on this episode. Imagine if it was Rejoy.
Natural marketing.
What is it?
Organic marketing?
What if they don't reach out now because... We made fun of it.
I don't think that they are in a place where they can spend any time.
Guys, taking care of your health isn't always easy, right?
But it should be simple.
That's why for the last three years I've been taking AG1,
just one scoop and a cup of water mixed around every day, no exceptions.
And it helps me feel, you know, energized, focused, ready to take on the day.
Like I'm doing one powerfully healthy habit that's also powerfully simple.
I know that AG1 gives my body high-quality nutrition
because every batch goes through a rigorous testing process
so that you know it's safe.
And their ingredients are sourced for potency, absorption, and nutrient density,
all of which is very important
and you don't always get with other leading nutrition brands.
I like to drink it first thing in the morning.
I'll have a glass of water. I'll
have my AG1 and then I'll have my coffee and it gets me set off to take on the day and to be
centered and to feel like I did at least one good thing for my health. And if you do that every day,
it has compounding effects. If there's one product I had to recommend to elevate your health, it's
AG1. That's why we've partnered with them for so long.
So if you want to take ownership of your health, start with AG1.

Charring all the grains

Flamed enough, but not too much.
Cauterized grain sear thus.
Imagine beaches of rice.
All scorched.

Anything else is poison.
365 burnt specks burning all the rice.
That was really good.
That was really good.
That was one of your better ones.
Plugs.
What do you guys think?
No, I'm kidding.
That was really good.
I got dragged last time in the comments for like talking over your song.
What does it matter?
Which is crazy.
Which is crazy.
I was like, have you seen?
That's so funny. We do have to say that the experience of listening to that
just now was hearing
the song so loud
in our headphones and then just hearing
you scream in the room
that's why I took one off
because honestly the lyrics were good
the lyrics were good
I like the beaches part
I love it when you say the word thus.
That was really good.
I also.
It's weird that songwriters don't take more advantage of a word like thus.
Yeah.
It has a kind of landing.
My weird comment about this is that I said that you should do Only Girl in the World.
Yeah.
This discovery was a thing that I had when I saw the musical Moulin Rouge because it
really sounded like he said, let me make you rice, take you for a ride.
Yeah.
That song is also Moulin Rouge, the musical.
Burning Down the House?
Yeah.
Also, I went to Hollywood Forever last weekend to see a screening of Romy and Michelle's
High School Reunion and they had a DJ before and they were playing the song and me and my
sister Janie were both like thinking we thought of
you and we were like fuck up some raps. Every time I
hear that I think of that song. Yeah. That's really good.
Yeah my
Grace bleep this out. My girlfriend
was at a rave in the desert
and they also played that song
and she was like sent me a voice note of her
singing along. Yeah I almost sent you a video
and then I was like what if the 1% chance you don't get it and you're like why'd she text me a voice note of her singing along. Yeah, I almost sent you a video and then I was like, what if the 1% chance you don't get it?
And you're like, why'd she text me?
To get left on read with that text,
I think that would have been it for you.
Also, I saw David Byrne like two weeks ago.
Where?
At his musical.
Sorry.
Cut out all the references of me saying
I know any of these people.
I went to a party once and I did line dancing with him.
What?
Did you make out?
I did line dancing with him too at this musical because they make you line dance.
That's really nice.
Yeah.
What's his weird obsession with line dancing?
Everybody's talking about it now.
Yeah.
Are they?
Is it?
Stud country?
Stud country.
I was the first because I desperately wanted us to go line dancing in Austin and they don't support it.
Grace, cut that out.
I think, I don't know, it's fine.
Can we talk through these lyrics?
Yeah.
I always want notes from you guys.
I want to know how it could be better because these are not maybe the final version.
They probably are because I don't want to re-record.
But we are going to put out a new video.
You mean that was the take that you're going to?
No.
Not unless you think it was good enough i think we should i think
we should really invest can we get moona in what would be good uh pink chiffon yeah burnt
they would not race no they don't they barely they don't know who I am.
Naomi and I have been at a lot of parties together,
and I don't think they know who I am at all.
Flex.
No, it's just that this town is fucking small,
and anybody who's under 30 is always at the
at the corner, frankly, which is where Kayla is.
That's in my neighborhood.
Don't say that on the show.
There's only one at the corner.
We should say it's at the corner.
No, here we go.
Watch out.
Same as the song.
Yeah.
Does everybody know this song, Burning Down the House?
Yeah.
Has everyone seen the movie Queen Latifah and Steve Martin?
No.
It doesn't hold up.
Last Holiday?
That movie is so fucking good.
I love that movie
I'll watch that anytime anywhere
no questions
we should do newcomers
but for Queen Latifah's movies
honestly that would be really good
that would mean a lot to me
we were just talking about
set it off
yeah I saw set it off
for the first time
have you seen that
heist movie Queen Latifah
set it up
set it off
I don't know
it's really good
wait it's really good
okay
I'll look it up

Watch out.
Yeah.
You might carbonize jasmine.
Yeah.
You might get what you're after.
It's you might carbonize jasmine.
Okay.
Rice.
Right.
I learned that carbonize is a synonym for charry today.
Uh-oh.
Yeah.
Par boiled. What type of rice? Mm-hmm. Why are you guys not smiling? What type of rice? I'm just listening. for charry today. Yeah. Par-boiled.
What type of rice?
Mm-hmm.
Why are you guys not smiling?
What type of rice?
I'm just listening.
Yeah.
Yeah, we're like,
this isn't sparking joy.
Did you want me to smile
for every line?
Yeah, don't tell us to smile.
Oh, wow.
I knew the moment I said it.
Yeah.
You tell us to smile
and you told me to
suffocate under the divine feminine
in the room.
You'd look so much better if you smiled.
It's kind of a classic line from Jeff.
Next time we do this lineup, which we should do it again,
I'm going to wear a construction worker's outfit.
No, parboiled type of rice.
Yeah.
It's a type of...
It is.
It's a preparation.
I googled types of rice and parboiled comes up consistently. Right, that's like type of It is. It's a preparation. I googled types of rice
and parboiled comes up consistently. Right, that's like an
Uncle Ben situation. Really?
Like rice that you make in a microwave has been parboiled.
Parboiled means like pre, like has already been cooked.
Grains that are meant for scorching.
Yeah, that one's good.
Deep.
The consistency
The consistency of sand.
Charging all the rice.
Marika!
It's burning all the rice.
I didn't think it was going to be
that similar to the song.
Okay.
Scald scraps.
Of course.
He says that one.
Of course.
Scraps. Of course. He says that one. Of course. Scraps, of course.
Rice, man!
What is this?
Is that like grits?
That's grits.
A scrap of rice.
At that point, this is the size of a grit.
We haven't quite gotten into grits territory.
I haven't really to get into grits.
And also, hold on.
What is the other?
There's like another name for rice grits that's pretty good that I think would be good in a song.
Were you one of those boys on
vacation who would get your name
on a grain of rice? And what I was worried you were going to say
is swim shirt.
Shirt in the pool. Were you shirt in the pool?
Were you? Yeah, I was in Turks and Caicos
once when I was growing up. He's like this year.
I don't know what I am.
And we were
in like a ground floor hotel room, right?
Mm-hmm.
Walk through a...
Or I see a group of like...
I'm sorry to say, but young, you know, people my age.
Boys and girls.
Why are you sorry to say that?
I don't know.
I don't want to portray this image that everyone has of me as this like person who's always hung out and been able to hang with older people.
You know, because I've always been mature for my age.
How old are you?
I'm 25 years old.
Isn't that crazy?
How old did you think I was?
Don't say 30.
Okay, well, I...
Watch it. Tread lightly.
No, I'd love to be 30.
I love being 30.
I love being 30.
He says, I'm 25, but I love being 30.
How old did you think I was? I. I love being 30. He says, I'm 25, but I love being 30. How old did you think I was?
I think I would have, maybe I knew you were younger.
28?
I thought you were kind of just like a little younger than me.
That just means that I look younger.
Not like so much younger.
Not so much younger.
No, it's the bags under the eyes.
And by the way, I use bright eyes every day.
I do CeraVe.
What's that?
Is it okay?
You listen to Conor Over.
What are you doing?
Yeah, I don't know.
I think you look older than 25.
I don't mean that as a bad thing.
It's facial hair.
Maybe it is just the facial hair.
Yeah, but you don't know about like 19.
Better moving community center would be good.
I didn't know you had 19.
That's true.
Instead of you should really call your brother,
it's you should really char the grains.
I don't know what you're talking about.
I think bright rice.
Rice grits, sometimes called broken rice or midlands.
Wow.
Midland?
I guess. Also, I'm trying to get my
dad to give me
his rice shirt
that he got custom made.
What? I talked to
him over the weekend
and he
I can't remember what it was in it might have he might have worn it
when he got photographed for bon appetit magazine um but he got like a custom shirt that said
something about rice like truly something similar to like rice's joy like it's such a perfect shirt
and then he was like i went to a museum to go see an exhibit on rice, and everyone was looking at me, and I was like, I have to retire the shirt.
That's really freaking funny.
And I was like, I think you are, I feel like the opposite, but, you know, I'll take it if you don't want any more.
And then he wouldn't give it to me.
Let's get him on the show.
We really, resident rice expert. Yeah. I have a lot of rice experts on the show. We really, resident Rice expert.
Yeah.
I have a lot of Rice.
I've never come on this.
Rice expert.
Having Greg on the show would be very funny.
Greg Konefskaya?
Konefsky, yeah.
It's different.
You have to add an A because you're a woman?
Mm-hmm.
Another hardship.
Interesting.
Well, if you add up all the hours that you've spent filling out forms and writing your name down, it's probably been a full day.
And on top of that, I'm getting 25 cents less on the dollar.
Mostly the first thing, though, right?
Sorry.
I do feel confident saying I make the least amount of money out of anyone in this room, at least from HeadGum.
I mean, if you, but you're a contractor.
If you broke it down hourly, it might be different. When you say it like that, it sounds like a slur.
You're the one who says
you're going to put on a construction uniform.
I don't know, which is offensive
to laborers.
Wait till the walk gets nasty.
Yeah.
It's scald scraps.
Wait till the walk gets
nasty.
Singe sand.
You'll need angioplasty.
Now break that down, Liz.
Why?
It's basically an angioplasty is when you have to like clear your arteries from blockages, right?
It's like a really invasive heart surgery.
No, I know.
I've seen all of Grey's.
I'm rewatching right now.
Wait. I was just rewatching right now. Wait.
I was just re-watching last night.
When? And I got to the episode
where she has to choose between the vet and
McDreamy. And I really had no one to text
to be like, it's prom. Text me.
I was like, this is a really good
show and people don't talk about it enough.
I know. Oh my god.
That's such a good episode. People really don't talk
about it. I almost cried.
When that,
I watched that episode
for the first time,
which spoiler alert,
the show's been out
for 20 fucking years.
But Denny,
Denny Duquette.
Well, Denny,
she cuts the elevator.
That wire.
And then it's for nothing.
I was,
I think,
what's her name?
Catherine.
Heigl.
Heigl.
I cried.
I thought I was the surgeon,
but I'm not,
and she leaves.
Yeah.
I was devastated. I was on the floor but I'm not, and she leaves. Yeah. I was devastated.
I was on the floor sobbing.
Now that's real emotion.
Sounds like you had a good night's sleep then.
Sleep like a baby.
Is that in the lore of how you said that on the show?
No.
Oh, I said that on the show.
Yes, I have talked about my son being on the show before.
Is Jeff going to go see the two? Does Jeff go to the movies?
Yeah, does Jeff go to the movies?
I asked him that once on here if he goes to movies.
I do. That feels crazy.
It feels crazy.
What was the last movie?
Picture you kind of do regular
person stuff feels crazy.
What was the last movie you saw on theaters?
The only thing I can think about you doing at night is
coming in here unannounced to edit the HeadGum podcast for some reason at night here while we're trying to plan the 24-hour live stream.
There was like two to three different times.
I don't know if we ever talked about this on the show.
There was like two to three different times where we were talking about you and planning the secret live stream.
And then I'd come out and you would be in a side room and no one knew
when you showed up
and we'd kind of
try to guess
based on your manners
and like your
if you could hear
any of the things
that we said
and how long
you'd been there
I would be like
so how long
have you been here
what happened
what's up
why are you here
it's so late
me someone who doesn't
come into the office
that often
you're never
exactly
and then you're
planning a specific thing
and then you walk out
and suddenly I'm there
it's like 8.30pm.
That's terrifying.
So to think about you doing a normal
night thing like going to the movies feels wild.
What was the last movie you saw?
Oh, it was Evil Dead Rise.
Exactly.
That proves my point.
I like seeing horror movies in the theater.
Wait, so how does it end?
Evil Dead Rise?
The evil does rise. it wasn't very good is the little girl okay from the preview yeah
yeah okay cool i think so you didn't see this movie
there has got to be fish sauce.
Charring all the rain. Wait, new sauce introduced?
Yeah, that's crazy.
Well, I'm trying to add something every time, ideally.
So I added fish sauce.
Some joie de vivre.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Some sauce.
Why fish sauce?
B-joie is really...
B-joie.
That's kind of...
I guess it would be ete joie.
Yeah. B-ie. Yeah.
Be joy.
Yeah.
I think.
Not really.
You should get that as a tattoo.
That's kind of cool.
You should get be joie.
Speaking of sans,
I have the word sans
tattooed on my arm.
Emma.
Bully.
Oh, sorry.
I didn't know you were talking about it.
I do know that word, actually.
Okay.
Yeah.
Proving you know the word. Why does you have sans tattooed on your arm? It's a Grateful Dead tattoo. Thank actually. Okay. Yeah. Proving you know the word.
What is the tattoo?
Why does you have sans tattooed on your arm?
It's a Grateful Dead tattoo.
Thank you.
Really?
Yeah.
Well, Jerry Garcia mostly, but yeah.
I know you're surprised also.
I, well, I didn't, I like the dead, but I don't know what the reference is.
This is too personal.
This is too personal.
The energy just actually
it's so crazy in here
dropped out of the room
intrapersonal relationship
with my body
so I'm not gonna talk about
my own tattoo songs
it's
Sans Souci
so Jerry Garcia
at his house
this is so boring
I know
that's what I was like
don't even bother
the energy's changing again
everyone listening
changing in one way
and then changing in another way
oh hell yeah for everyone listening. I changed it one way and then changed it another way.
Oh, hell yeah.
Would you like to do one?
No.
Give us a major key alert.
What's that?
When you call out something,
you just have to say it. You just have to like
unsolicited advice, basically.
Major key alert.
Don't ask Jeff about anything.
All right, how about this?
Because as soon as the tables are turned, all of a sudden it's off limits.
I'm noticing that.
Ask me.
You guys, okay, each of you guys get one question and I'll answer it honestly.
Slash honestly.
Emma?
The thing is, nobody wants to hear about my actual life.
My actual life's very, honestly, bad.
What?
No, it's fine.
No, no, it's fine.
There's nothing I need to know.
It's fine.
What?
Moving right along.
Made a whole stink about how I don't answer questions.
You said, what's off limits?
There's just, you ask very personal questions on the show.
Yeah, one time he asked me if I pray.
So nobody wants to ask any questions now that the floor is open?
How is your personal life?
It's actually not good right now, but it'll be fine later.
Later today?
All my best friends moved to New York. Oh, I'm sorry.
It'll be fine later.
And that's where the B joy comes in.
You see?
That's kind of being joy.
Constant evolution towards wisdom.
Okay, I have a question. Okay, I'm borrowing
it from R.A.P. James Lipton.
Wow. Right?
I love.
R.A.P., right?
Of course.
Okay, so... Can he rest in peace? R.I.P. right? R.I.P. Okay so
Can't he rest in peace?
Without Allie invoking him on the head
gunfire
We all agree right?
R.I.P.
Yeah
Okay so you die
What?
Right?
Right?
And you're at heaven
At?
I don't want to put words on your mouth Allie said And now you're at heaven Yeah you're at heaven. At? I don't want to put words on your mouth, Ali said.
And now you're at heaven.
Yeah, you're at heaven.
It's a sight to her.
It is a location.
Is it not?
Yeah.
And you're at the door, the pearly gates.
Yeah, not heaven.
And then the doors open and Gad's there.
Josh?
Gad.
Oh, Gad.
Sorry.
She's from Chicago.
Gad. And that from Chicago. God.
And that's...
So what's the first thing you guys say to each other?
Like, guys is obviously gender neutral.
Okay.
I would say...
Oh my God, love your work.
Big sir, that was huge for me.
Wait, you're saying that to God or he's saying it to you?
I think you're saying it to Josh Gad.
You say it at the same time
and it's kind of like a meet-cute.
That's the twist.
It's actually Josh Gad that runs the door.
Josh Gad was created in God's image.
To run front of house in heaven.
I don't know.
Yeah, I would say,
oh, you know what?
No, I can't say it on the pod. Do you pray, Jeff? I don't. I don't know yeah I would say oh you know what no I can't say it on the pod
do you pray Jeff?
I don't
I don't either
I think I pray when like
a family member
is feeling ill
Jesus
what?
I said earnest and honest
but you just didn't answer a question
I don't understand fully
I have to be honest
what you're asking
no you answered it
I love your work is a great answer.
I love your work, big service huge.
It's a classic.
Lipton would have loved it.
Wait, but I think it's like, what does God say to you?
I think that's the question.
I'm nothing if not a creationist.
Sorry, what?
What?
I think Emma said something crazy.
Trad, Emma. Trad, Ivy Trad.
Trad.
Ivy Trad.
Don't.
Cut that out.
Cut that out.
No, I'm not.
No, I'm not.
I'm not.
We don't need to get into it.
It's happening.
I'm not going to talk later.
We don't need to get into it.
You can't.
You can't. You can't.
You can't.
It's never been this on the show. I also think that we should cut out the bar that Muna goes to.
I don't think they'd like their spot being blown up.
I didn't, wait, I didn't hear that.
Oh, it happened like 20 minutes ago.
Okay.
Well, we'll make notes.
I feel like, yeah.
I literally missed it completely.
It's okay.
Oh.
I guess Marika still has a question available
for Anya and Emma
didn't ask anything
you should do it inside the actor's studio episode
such a good idea
we'd have to get Cooper though
we'd have to get Bradley Cooper
because he asked a question
I see you
famously when he was an actor at the actor's studio
and by the way he looked so annoying he looked so earnest he was an actor at the actor's studio. And by the way, he looked so annoying.
He looked so earnest.
He was just like, thank you so much, Mr. Lipton.
When you're like thinking about a part, like is that, it's so, I mean, I don't do a good impression.
No, I got the vibe for sure.
He was like, I'm Bradley Cooper and I'm an actor.
That's what he's going to say to God?
My name is Bradley Cooper.
I don't know.
No, no.
He was in the audience at an interview once, and they took questions, and he was an audience fan question.
Whoa.
He was a baby boy.
That's cute.
Okay, that's nice.
I was imagining Bradley Cooper now talking to God, I'm Bradley Cooper and I'm an actor.
Okay, I have to say something.
And I want to know if you guys agree.
This is the most fun I've ever had on the HeadGum Podcast.
But I think it's going to be the least fun to watch.
Oh, no.
I think we're just talking for Jeff.
Exactly.
He's not participating.
We're talking amongst ourselves. There's conversations going on that he has no idea about. And they're just talking for Jeff. Exactly. He's not participating. We're talking amongst ourselves.
There's conversations going on that he has no idea about.
And so I'm sorry for you.
No, I feel like, Jeff, you're in it.
Do you not feel in it?
Here's your bomba char the grains.
Time for OD-ing on soy.
What's bomba?
It's a type of rice.
Bomba's a type of rice.
Thank you.
No, here's your bomba char the grains.
Time for OD-ing on soy.
Yeah, I'm actually allergic to soy, so that is me.
You can get soy poisoning.
My friend Harry got that.
My God, what happened?
He was hazed in college.
But what happened to...
How does it manifest?
Sodium poisoning, really.
And then what?
What happens?
Long...
Also, like, I don't...
What does it look like?
I mean, is that.
Dad?
That would be a better thing to say to God.
Just dad.
Our father who art in heaven.
Who art in heaven.
Who art in heaven.
He paints.
Who art in heaven.
He's an artist.
Our father who art in heaven.
Long grain white rice is here.
Uh-huh.
Flamed enough but not too much.
Cauterized grain sear thus.
Yeah.
Marika, you have a really nice little hug.
There was one.
Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
There was one line.
Keep going.
There was one line where you really should have gone back to.
There was one line that.
There's a line coming up where you should have gone back to, I think, burning all the rice.
But you were like, did something that didn't rhyme.
Charring all the grains.
And I was the asshole for saying that for the first time.
You were because you weren't listening intently.
Imagine beaches of rice.
That's my favorite line.
All scorched
Yeah that's really good
Hey you might need some hoisin
Ongsby
Anything else is poison
That's really good
When you get a rhyme like that
And you're not carrying that level
That's the bar
You can do this
But to me the funniest thing
The goal of these songs is for the listener to not be able to find stable ground
you think you know what's coming and it's not there that's true so i like throwing in a rhyme
at the end when people are like okay so none of this is gonna rhyme they've already decided that
and then all of a sudden there's a perfect rhyme they're like wait what it really needs the sound. It needs the Oppenheimer.
365 burnt specks.
Burning all the rice.
And that's the lyrics.
I think if your goal was to keep people on edge,
then you've achieved it.
Well, that's why you two had a bassist named The Edge,
or a guitarist, or whatever.
Nobody would feel comfortable with him in a room.
That's why Jeff locked the door behind us when we came in.
I actually do want to get... You know, this has been all amiable.
You know, on that side of the desk,
everybody's been really having a great time, it sounds like.
It's time to get a little more sour.
How long have we been going for? It's been an hour and 15 minutes. Yeah, we have to go. No, it's time to get a little more sour. How long have we been going for?
It's been an hour and 15 minutes.
Yeah, we have to go.
No, it's been 49.
Okay, great.
Glad to know it felt like an hour and 15.
Marika.
Yeah.
Emma.
Can you guys tell the audience
why you're in LA?
Comic-Con.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And...
They're big fans of Comic-Con.
Let's say who...
I did have a few people ask me, like, oh, are you going for work or like for personal?
Yeah.
And you were like, I've never heard of Oppenheimer.
I'm going to work.
I was not so insulted.
But.
I now feel like I should.
Yeah.
That's a question that should be directed to me.
Okay.
Well, can I ask.
Oh, my God.
You can breathe easy.
I can finally relax.
You guys are here for Comic-Con.
What are you doing at Comic-Con?
Panels?
Why are you there?
Too Scary Didn't Watch,
a HeadGum horror recap podcast,
is going to record an episode there.
Okay, and that's what I wanted to talk to you guys about.
Why didn't we get a panel there?
Why didn't we get a live show at Comic-Con?
It's crazy.
For the HeadGum podcast?
Yeah.
Well, how many listeners do they get?
More than us.
More than the HeadGum podcast? Yeah. This is how many listeners do they get? More than us. More than the HeadGum Podcast?
Yeah.
This is fucked up.
I'd say they're like a little more.
It's not like a huge amount.
So we could theoretically, because this is the new goal,
by next year's Comic Con, you think there's a chance.
You're telling me there's a chance.
They don't ask for numbers.
Okay, so it's about content?
Yeah.
Well, you would have had to be submitted.
Which, first of all, we didn't do for the heck of it.
Right, this is what I want to pick the bone with you guys.
Well, here's one thing.
I think it would be so funny.
I don't know how to pull it off because I don't know what the rules are about filming on the floor.
But I think it would be really funny for you and Riley to go
to Comic Con and just like interview
people. Maybe. I don't like man on the street
stuff I have to be honest but. You don't?
Nah.
You know like no one's gonna. You're too
you're too much for the
random person.
I think. Indoors. Something bad. I think he needs
an outline. Yeah. Let me
ask you guys a couple questions.
Okay.
Because my fear, let me first express my fear,
and then you guys can either confirm it or deny it.
Okay.
My fear is that this show has been sort of
gradually getting swept under the rug
in favor of newer shows.
Hollywood Handbook is new.
Oh my God, shiny object.
Everybody's distracted.
I don't know what this fucking branded show is.
I get that it's bringing in money. I that but does it have the charm the wit the
fucking guerrilla warfare feel of this show and then my question to you is that is it an out of
sight is it an out of sight out of mind thing where like you're in new york you're in new york
and then i rarely come to the la office right even office, right? Even though. Except for at night.
Except for at night.
So, like, is that the issue?
Is that I'm not showing face enough to be reminding you guys?
Marika's on the show every week.
Yeah, I talk to you so often.
Right.
And then, so it's not that.
So it's not that.
Woo!
Right?
I think you're just kind of feeling first born, first waffle.
You know, when you make a waffle, the first one's the tester.
That's the thing, though, is I bought low and I want to sell
high and so far I haven't even had the option
to sell stuff
what are you feeling particularly
neglected about
just the comic con thing
I've been begging for months
we have two ideas we want to do for the show
I haven't gotten either one off the ground
they're so expensive
well okay
I said I would sell fun and then it doesn't seem like anyone's allowing me to do this either one off the ground. They're so expensive. Well, okay. Well, Jeff.
I said I would self-fund
and then it doesn't seem like
anyone's allowing me to do that.
Jeff.
What do you mean, yeah?
I want it to happen.
I'm sorry to unveil
the man behind the curtain,
but you, me, and Marika
had a meeting months ago.
Wait.
I remember this.
Yes.
To work on a very special episode
of the HeadGum Podcast
and you
I believe
were on vacation
ebooks
he's blessed
I was shooting a movie
yeah it was amazing
wasn't
wasn't there also
one where you
didn't have wifi
at the hour of the meeting
no that was also
the fucking thing
at the movie
and you were in Kentucky
Kentucky didn't have
fucking wifi
well we had wifi
but it was literally I would have upload speeds of 0.25 megabytes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was like we had a meeting.
We were going to regroup.
More than a meeting.
Sort of a groundbreaking.
We had a meeting.
We were going to regroup.
I did my homework.
Uh-huh.
And then we never regrouped because you were in Kentucky with 0.25 megabytes.
Was there not like a Starbucks like near?
There was a coffee shop that had Wi-Fi 45 minutes away.
Okay.
So if you really wanted to do it, you could have.
It sounds like.
Well, I was also on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
True.
I say we regroup.
We do that meeting soon whenever you guys are free on the day.
And then we figure it out from there.
But what I do, I just, I want to be included in decision making.
Like,
what shows do we submit for Comic Con?
And I'm like,
and maybe I'm on the Zoom
and I'm like,
I'm just spitballing here
with a podcast.
And then they're like,
maybe.
You want to be included
in decision making.
Just can we submit me,
for the New York Comedy Festival
for things like Comic Con.
Yeah,
let's do it.
New goal next year, HeadGum Podcast live Festival. Sure. For things like Comic-Con. Yeah, let's do it. New goal next year.
HeadGum Podcast live show.
Yeah.
Review is actually, there actually might be in New York Comedy Festival.
I'm not on that show anymore, which is fine.
No, I know, but it could, like.
Looking ahead, 2024.
So it's just passing in the night.
Everything's coming up, Jeff.
I don't think so, unless we make it happen.
2024, nothing else for the rest of the year.
Fine.
Fine?
That's bad, Jeff.
Here's my thing. The new goal is to be at the rest of the year. Fine. Fine or bad? Here's my thing.
The new goal is to be at Comic-Con next year.
Comic-Con next year.
Headcum podcast live show.
And if it doesn't happen,
whether that's because of y'all's neglect
or whether that's because of the dumbasses
on the panel at Comic-Con.
I don't like the pointing.
This is crazy.
We are going to burn down the house.
We are going to rent a stage at a different place in Anaheim.
We are going to throw our own.
Where is it?
Orange County or some shit?
Long Beach?
San Diego.
Who gives a fuck?
San Diego Comic Con, very famous.
Who cares?
Well, Jeff's going to Anaheim.
It's okay.
Don't forget San Diego. We're going to be in Anaheim. It's okay. Don't forget, Sandia,
we're going to be in Anaheim.
We could do Disney. It doesn't fucking matter.
We're going to throw our own Comic Con.
Guess what it's going to be called?
Jeff Con? Jomic Con.
G-E-O-M-I-C Con.
Right? And we're going to have
all-time guests. We're going to have...
What's that? I didn't say anything.
Continue. No, I just wanted to sit with Jomicon.
Wait, I don't know if I'm understanding what word you guys are saying.
Are you saying Jomicon?
Jomicon?
I'm not saying it, for the record.
Which doesn't sound totally related to your team.
G-E-O-M-I-C.
Who the fuck is this?
Jomicon.
I heard.
Multiple stages with different shows happening at any given time.
We're going to have the hits.
We're going to have Zach Dunn as a guest.
We're going to have Miles Bonsignore.
She's pretty famous and cool, actually.
She's, like, invited to Comic-Con.
Soundproof glass, they told me.
So I just want to announce that to hold myself and the team accountable,
that that's the new goal for the show.
Wait, who's going to Jomicon?
No, I'm saying the goal is to get a real Comic-Con.
If that doesn't happen, whether by neglect on y'all's parts, this is on y'all,
or the committee at Comic-Con, we're going to throw our own Comic-Con.
It's going to be ten times better.
Jomicon.
I'm going to be a guest.
I said Zach Dunn.
I said Miles Bonsignore.
I said the team at HeadGum.
This lineup is great.
We're going to have Jake back from paternity leave.
We're going to have Ferris Monshi on the boards
talking about getting, I'm sorry, but pegged.
We're going to be April and Ferris.
You guys don't remember that?
I do.
April and Ferris. You're inside Ferris that? I do. April and Ferris.
You're inside Ferris.
2028's gonna be your year.
That's it.
Plugs.
We're wrapping it up.
We're wrapping it up.
We're wrapping it up.
I'm trying.
Casey's staring at me like this.
I'm like, I'm trying.
They won't fucking do their plugs.
I didn't even see the Doughboys.
Katie's pissed too.
I'm sorry.
Okay.
You can follow me on Instagram at Emma Rose Foley.
Short film coming somewhere.
And you house sat for someone recently.
Is that fair to say?
I have what?
You house sat for someone.
I thought you said you have sat.
Yeah, me too.
Like a portrait.
A portrait.
Yeah. Did you get a portrait? Neither. You didn Yeah, me too, like a portrait. A portrait.
Did you get a portrait?
Neither.
You didn't house sit?
You posted a thing that you were house sitting.
Why would you?
Stop.
You know what the real reason was?
You set, maybe you weren't house sitting,
but you posted a photo and I saw,
I just saw an apartment, I was like, that's cool.
The shelves are really aesthetic.
So I saved it.
I think that's my house.
That's your apartment?
Yeah.
Well, I don't know what you're talking about,
but I assume.
With the projector?
She's like, I have shelves.
With the projector.
What is this?
You said you were watching a movie, I think, right?
What did I post?
Do you want to, I don't know how to share it.
Oh, that was my friend Rebecca's apartment.
Right, and you were house sitting.
No. What happened? She had me over. Got Right. And you were house sitting. No.
What happened?
She had me over.
Got it.
She just had me over like a normal human person.
I just moved.
Wait.
Can we talk about really quick?
Remember the time you came in here with me and Casey?
And you told me you just moved to this great new apartment.
And it was just me and Casey talking to him.
And he was like, Anya, you and your boyfriend should come over.
I was like, okay, Casey.
That's why I don't like going to parties anymore.
Because I don't know what happened.
I don't know if it's COVID, long COVID.
But I'm so anxious in social settings that I say dumb ass shit like that.
I was like, okay, no.
All right.
Of course you're not going to come over.
I was like, Casey, do you want to come over?
It was just funny because Casey was right next me, but he didn't invite us.
I didn't invite Kasey.
That's what I'm saying.
I would have loved to come over.
It's just weird that you wouldn't invite our friend and coworker, Kasey.
Shelves.
I was looking for Shelves inspiration on Instagram, and I saw your post.
I'll put you and Rebecca in touch.
She's in LA right now.
We're going to be traveling together, actually, after Comic-Con.
I've never been more good than to not meet Rebecca.
I figured out the Shelves, by the way. I figured out the shelves, by the way.
I figured out the shelves, and it looks good, so I don't need the inspiration anymore.
But it was a reference image.
You brought it up.
I used it as a reference image.

People probably like that.
Anya's on the show all the time, and everybody's like, oh my god, I want to marry Anya.
