Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a HeadGum Original. Previously on the HeadGum Podcast. I'm like, do you need a security detail? I get weird letters in the mail. I'd love to get fewer mails, letters, you know what I mean? And then the worst way someone's ever said your name uh i would say that jeff let her speak what no wait yeah what did jeff rubin say because it wasn't that bad he said merica yeah that's like the most common one and it is ultimately annoying
Starting point is 00:00:40 and people then will use it as like a joke which is also annoying but I've gotten Martika, I've gotten Malika I've gotten Mabika That's crazy I've gotten Barika That's why we're getting rid of it I hear Where's it going? Lumber?
Starting point is 00:01:02 Just start the fucking episode Lumber? Just start the fucking episode. Lumber. Why doesn't Jeff wear headphones? He's the engineer. What I will say is that, first of all, I can't hear, yeah,
Starting point is 00:01:25 I can't hear the sound effects whatsoever. Why? These cameras, we've got two of them. Hold on. I have so many questions. And I don't mind it. You didn't reset the cameras. I didn't reset the cameras.
Starting point is 00:01:38 He's not listening to the audio he's recording. The headphones are right outside. I can go get them. I think you probably should. If y'all could just kind of steer the ship while I'm gone Do you want me to fix the cameras? You're a host Of the fucking pit wall Why don't you take over
Starting point is 00:01:48 We could do You know what we should do Are all the mics on even? All the mics are on Yeah I'm hearing y'all No you're not hearing You're not hearing anything I'm hearing all four of you
Starting point is 00:01:57 He's hearing us like In the room Yeah you're not hearing The microphone Right yes But I'm getting levels On everything The only thing is that
Starting point is 00:02:04 Are we peaking? You're being really loud. Like, does it sound good or bad? Well, you need a monitor. It looks like it sounds good. Who's three? That's you, Allie. I guess so.
Starting point is 00:02:11 Yeah, say something. All right. No, not for levels. Like, say something awesome. Say something awesome. I'm talking you. Jeff, is your mic on? Because I can barely hear you.
Starting point is 00:02:25 My mic is on. We're getting some good-ass levels on my shit. How can you tell if you're not? Because I'm riding them. I'm riding the levels like a bucket. It's a visual thing for him? It's kind of like how some people can visualize color. Synesthesia.
Starting point is 00:02:42 That's it with the audio. Jeff, I always thought you were like Lord. The Lord? Lord the musician or Brian? No, L-O-R-D-E. Our God and Savior. Famously synesthesia. I always thought you were like a little Lord. Like someone
Starting point is 00:02:57 who owns a little bit of Farquaad. Little Lord Fauntleroy. I don't know what, everyone else seems to have that Friday feeling other than me. I'm riding levels. I'm making sure the tech is not falling off the rails. You're not, though. You're not.
Starting point is 00:03:10 None of the cameras are set and no headphones are on your ears. It seems as though the rails are off. We can't see Anya whatsoever. So what are the three cameras showing right now? We have camera one is on you and Casey. Okay, great. It's tilted at an angle. God.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Dutch style. Camera two is all All and Casey. Okay, great. It's tilted at an angle. God. Dutch style. Camera two is all Ali everything. Yeah. So it's going to be, and there's a little bit of Anya, but it is mostly Ali. And then camera three is also Ali focused, but Anya's in it because she's kind of squirming. Is your camera on? My camera's on. I'm not really coming through in visual stereo.
Starting point is 00:03:44 I kind of look like garbage today. That has nothing to do with the GoPro, I think. You have nothing to do with my happiness, I think. Talk amongst yourselves. You're going to keep me off camera? No, I'm about to adjust the cameras. But I need y'all. I think people should see.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I think we should do a fucking Casey's Druthers. Because cinematic music emotional. We have Adam Conover's notes here if anyone would like to read. I was wondering what that just was. Alright, here we go. This is a Casey's druthers while I fix the cameras. You know, traffic
Starting point is 00:04:20 has gotten Let me do my druthers, please. I thought we were going to do it about Jeff. No, this is Casey's druthers. So he just talks uninterruptedly. But yours was about traffic too. Traffic is so bad. This is a different angle.
Starting point is 00:04:34 He's going to say that it's fine or something. Well, let me get to it. He already said it was so bad. Traffic is bad this time of year specifically. Interesting. Like, it's, I don't know what it is about Los Angeles, but when the days get shorter. What is this?
Starting point is 00:05:00 Covered by a bag, the teleprompter? Covered by a bag, as we call it in the industry. The traffic is bad. Like worse than usual around sunset. And it's always, I notice in LA, it's always between Thanksgiving and the second week. The music is so loud and you're so quiet. Well, not to the listener. I feel like I'm in a spa and you're talking in the next room about traffic.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Just trying to get my druthers out. I didn't even ask to do these druthers. When you said sunset, you mean the street or the time of day? Both. Sunset and sunset. It's awful. This is the last place I want to be. Guys, fuck, marry, kill.
Starting point is 00:05:46 Sunrise, sunset, high noon. Oh, interesting. It's awful. It's the last place I want to be. You guys, fuck, marry, kill, sunrise, sunset, high noon. Oh, interesting. Kill high noon. Easily kill high noon. Easily. Okay, that's fair. It's the worst lighting. It's the hottest part of the day.
Starting point is 00:05:59 I wish I could hear what you said, but I can only hear the music. Oh, the music is still going? You could take your headphones off. I'm such a rule follower. I won't do it. Kill high noon. Yeah. The lighting is still going. You can take your headphones off. I'm such a rule follower. I won't do it. Kill high noon. Yeah. The lighting is the worst.
Starting point is 00:06:10 It's the hottest part of the day. That's correct. Merry sunrise. That's right. And fuck at sunset. Fuck at sunset. Fucking at sunrise is crazy. You're up too late or too early.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Exactly. That's why I would honestly kill sunrise. I'm killing sunrise too. Yeah. Yeah. I don't want to be that's like if you're awake before it's bad
Starting point is 00:06:31 and if you're up that long it's not great. I'm gonna I fuck high noon marry sunset. You're gonna fuck at high noon.
Starting point is 00:06:38 No I'm not fucking at high noon. She's fucking high noon. What's your favorite part of it? Because that's what cowboys do. Cowboys are always meeting at high noon. You're basically inside of high noon she's fucking high noon what's your favorite part of it because that's what cowboys do cowboys are always
Starting point is 00:06:45 meeting at high noon you're basically inside of high noon yeah does that make sense yeah exactly right
Starting point is 00:06:52 it's more of a metaphor thoughts on the film high noon I might yeah see if I could get I haven't seen it in a while but it's pretty good
Starting point is 00:06:58 one of my faves dome that's one where the guy is I feel like there's guys coming we gotta protect the town and then like all I remember is at the end the woman
Starting point is 00:07:09 there's no way this is the episode yet this can't be it this can't be it not even in an entertaining way I know like sometimes it's bad and it's funny this has been literally zero Anya zero hosted by Tony zero And it's funny. Yeah. This has been literally zero. This has been Anya zero. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Hosted by? Tony zero. Tony zero. Casey, do you have a nickname? I don't care to be associated with the worst that this program has ever been. I don't care for that. Try being Pyle. Try being Andrew Pyle because every episode he's ever been on is the series called Worst Episode Ever 1 through 6.
Starting point is 00:07:42 He doesn't deserve. ever. One through six. She doesn't deserve. Can I debut a new sound for y'all? Quietly. Here we go. Are you guys ready? My ears are my instrument. Okay. They're my livelihood.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Oh, that's me. Saying, what's that? Oh my god. She just got starstruck. Wait, is that really you? It felt like ventriloquism. Should we try that? Yeah, mouth it.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I don't know what he's going to say. Well, shouldn't it be my mouth? Because it's not supposed to come out of Casey's. Shouldn't it be my mouth? Gives others the spotlight for once. What the hell is wrong with you? Sorry, I just got into a whole conversation earlier while we were like testing, testing
Starting point is 00:08:36 for the Mario Kart live stream. Which will have happened weeks ago at this point. Yeah, like four weeks ago. And you were like do people respect me as a boss? And we all lied to you. And you lied to me by saying no. Come on.
Starting point is 00:08:50 If you want to say what really happened, over Slack you asked us in a group chat if we respect you as a boss. And then when I answered you, you edited what the question was. Oh, that's right. To say goodnight. So I said,
Starting point is 00:09:03 do you guys respect me as a boss? And then you said, in what way? Yeah. And then I edited my question to right say good night so i said you guys respect me as a boss and then you said in what way yeah and then i edited my question to just say good night and then i responded in what way so it was kind of it's kind of weird did anybody see it before not uh ali and i saw it yeah we all saw the original question too it just didn't make any sense i was dadaist yeah oh wait you didn't see the question i didn't see it until it was edited so it said goodnight in what way and I was like what the hell this is the first you're finding out about this
Starting point is 00:09:28 it's the first you guys remember the Folgers in your mug has the show started this is it this has been it this will be it there was a Casey's druthers
Starting point is 00:09:41 there was me setting up the cameras which at this point has become canon that Folgers song is legitimately one of the best songs it. There was a Casey's Druthers. There was me setting up the cameras, which at this point has become canon, right? That Folger song is legitimately one of the best songs of the 80s or 90s or whenever it came out. And there's a full commercial minute, minute and a half version of the song
Starting point is 00:09:55 that really sounds like a radio hit. And it was just an ad, a jingle for coffee. Okay. And let's go to our radio correspondent, Anya Kenevsky, or rather Anya Zero. Is it good radio, or was that kind of free of what I would consider the cinema of radio? Ultimately, I was not alive
Starting point is 00:10:12 for whatever Amir's talking about. Yeah, you were. Can you do Folgers' full song? Yeah, you can hear it. I know the song. I've never heard a full version of it. There's Folgers in your car. Yeah, there's like a verse. Bummer about that. Every day I wake up Are we going to talk about the Folgers Christmas commercial? Well, the Folgers girl died.
Starting point is 00:10:29 She died? Nansen murdered. I want to go murder you, guy. Wait. I'm not seeing. What are you saying? It's not a minute and a half. It's 46 seconds?
Starting point is 00:10:40 Okay, 46 seconds. Okay, here we go. Longer than a quarter. Oh, wait. Listen to this, Sonya. Tell me if you like this. It includes this beeping for some reason. Okay, 46 seconds. Okay, here we go. Longer than a... Oh, wait. Listen to this, Sonya. Tell me if you like this. It includes this beeping for some reason. A guy waking up.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Is this like an Amber Alert? Yeah. Should we be evacuating? Yeah, this is the song. Every day I wake up Pour myself a cup Of that rich Folgers aroma The best part of waking up
Starting point is 00:11:04 It's the do-up, do-up in all I do What year is this? 1980? It looks like the 90s. 90s? Is this Pentatonix? Wasn't that great? I've never seen you respond to music like that. That was awful.
Starting point is 00:11:41 You didn't like that? It was like Pentatonix. This is 1998, by the way. It's gotta be earlier. There's another one. The 30 second version. This is so fucked up. It's the Carmen Sandiego.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Is that who sang Carmen Sandiego? Yeah. This sucks. Oh, is it the same guy? It's the same song? It's just a 30 second version of it for the campaign.
Starting point is 00:12:00 It's a cut down. Can you play... Jeff, can you play the Carmen Sandiego theme song? And then I guess the Chili's would go right after that. Yeah, then we could do Chili's after that. These are the people that did the Carmen Sandiego. And then Sullivan Auto.
Starting point is 00:12:14 The Carmen Sandiego game show, right? The game show theme song. Jeff, here's a question. It's not Pentatonix. No, Pentatonix is the only Oh my god. Yeah, Pentatonix is the only... Oh, my God. Yeah, there we go.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Good transition. And then did it say who sang this? What's that? Did it say who sang this? This is Where in the World is Carmen Sandier. The band or the acapella. Yeah, is it the Folgers Four? Did the Folgers Four sing this?
Starting point is 00:12:37 You want me to turn it up? Who's singing it? I don't fucking know. It says join Acme's music channel. Join Acme? In the description? It's the South Acme's music channel. Join Acme? In the description? It's the South Bay Groovy System. I'm going to look it up.
Starting point is 00:12:53 This is really good. I think you're right. It sounds like a South Bay Groovy System joint. Should we get into doing this? I can't hear you. Here's a question. I can't hear you. Have you seen the Christmas folders commercial?
Starting point is 00:13:04 It sounds like you're pissed at me. It looks like you're pointing. This is getting louder. I can't hear you. Have you seen the Christmas folders commercial? Sounds like you're pissed at me. It looks like you're pointing. This is getting louder. But I can't hear anything you're saying. What's that? This is getting louder. You can see him doing this. You said play the full Carmen Sandiego theme song.
Starting point is 00:13:16 That's what we're doing. This is your druthers. I didn't say that. This might be part of your druthers. You might need to fucking. Oh, my God. Did you play this video? I did.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Did you ever watch this show? The game show? Did you find a new level to make it louder? Did you find a new loudness level? Yeah, she flies around the floor Banks her flip-flops every nation She's a... She's just... Did you find a new loudness level? Allie's mouth open.
Starting point is 00:13:49 She's just jogging. Why is this so long? I don't know. I've been done with this for a while, personally. Machapella. That's the group? Yeah. Machapella.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Carmen Sandiego. What? Tell me. I can't. There's so many things I could be doing right now. Is this a loop? We got another minute. I don't know what else so many things I could be doing right now. Is this a loop? We got another minute. I don't know what else to say. Another minute?
Starting point is 00:14:09 It's a three-minute song. It's a radio edit. It's a radio-free edit. You love it. You can turn it off. He's shaking his head. He's silently shaking your head. If this was a TV show theme song, it hasn't even started.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Are you playing another song underneath this? There's a nice fade out there, I guess, but what a waste of all of our time. That was Casey's idea. Anyways, the Folgers Christmas commercial, no one's picking up on this. So the Folgers theme song, when I was looking it up, was written in 84. So before I was alive.
Starting point is 00:14:49 Maybe that commercial. I added this emotional soundtrack back in because this has to be still part of Casey's druthers. So wrap it up. Otherwise, that was all a waste of time. So far, he's just said that traffic is bad. Traffic is bad. At sunset on sunset. At sunset on sunset.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Where the brother comes home from... This is from the 90s as well. From, like, the Peace Corps. Then what? And his sister greets him. You guys don't know the commercial I'm talking about? I think so. You guys should watch it.
Starting point is 00:15:19 It's the Folgers Christmas commercial that was, like, really miscast. Like, they cast the brother and the sister too close in age. So when they come home and they have this like emotional reunion over a cup of coffee, it's extremely sexy. Yeah, it was romantic. Yeah. I do have to bring up that because you said casting. KC has a feature length movie that is in development. I do have to bring this up
Starting point is 00:15:45 because you said casting. I said a lot of words, ultimately. There's a lot of different words I said. You could have brought up a lot of different things. That's true. I just had one question about the casting process for your movie. Is the audition still open?
Starting point is 00:15:59 Is it going to be the traditional, you know, like bringing in a casting director? Or is it mostly like personal connections? Like anybody could just sort of submit. I was going to be the traditional you know like bringing in a casting director or is it mostly like personal connections like anybody could just sort of submit who's going to say or is it mostly like more like an Indian cast where it's like each role is regard to like what you know
Starting point is 00:16:15 slumdog millionaire style caste system of Hinduism oh a caste system yeah exactly right what's the casting system for your movie is it the cast system or is it through like, you know, Jeannie McCarthy or something? McCarthy Abelera. We're still figuring it out, but we haven't considered a cast system.
Starting point is 00:16:37 You have not considered that? No, but it's something to consider. It does because I feel like, listen, all the rage in Hollywood right now is like, oh, diversity, you know, which is racist in a way in and of itself. Sure.
Starting point is 00:16:48 So look at it that way. I guess. But if you're going to, you might as well do it like, you know, quota. So I should have like a prince in the movie?
Starting point is 00:16:57 I really don't think he's understanding what I'm saying. Everyone else gets it. You want to be in the movie, it seems like. That's exactly right. Is there a character
Starting point is 00:17:02 similar to Jeff's anything? Yeah. His status in our company. Ethnic ambiguity. Long hair. Yeah. Mustache. Maybe I could play.
Starting point is 00:17:11 I could play like a footstool to you on set. Imagine if Casey's movie ended up kind of as a Bollywood hit. That'd be amazing. Like RRR. I don't even know how we would even get there because there's no musical numbers in my movie. Folgers, the song, could be. The good thing is when you cast enough brown people who can improvise. Every day I wake up.
Starting point is 00:17:34 You do acapella, right? What's that? Did you appreciate that Folgers theme song on an acapella level? What's that? That's good. That's really good. I did acapella in high school. What was the group called?
Starting point is 00:17:47 The U.S. Males. This show is sponsored by BetterHelp. Guys, if you had an extra hour in your day, how would you spend it? Because I would absolutely fix all of my problems with the extra hour. That's the issue, is that there aren't 25 hours in the day, so I can't become a better version of me. Does that make sense? But maybe you would want to go for a run or go for a nap or go for reading a book because a lot of us spend our times wishing that we had more time in our day. And the question is time for what? Because
Starting point is 00:18:40 if time was unlimited, how you would use it would infer your mental health and your happiness and your joy.

Starting point is 00:25:27 nearly two and a half hours ago. So excuse me if I say irreversible. Like a taser? Like a rod? Like a cattle prod on my fucking eyelids, by the way. Can you imagine if Jeff was like, I got tasered two and a half hours ago, but he still showed up. You always show up flustered and we never know why. And if you got tasered two weeks ago but he still showed up. I can't imagine.
Starting point is 00:25:45 You always show up flustered and we never know why and if you got tasered that would at least be a good excuse. This is my eye doctor with Zac Efron. Did he create this procedure or is it like procedure that everybody does and he's one of the few people that can? The machine costs according
Starting point is 00:26:01 to Arthur a quarter of a million dollars. Very Russian. The nurse, Belarusian. Interesting. And did your doctor give you any fun tidbits about Zach? He doesn't like to disclose who he works with or what they said or anything, but he does have kind of a wall of fame with all the celebrities that we worked on. Okay, so he does respect confidentiality. Does he know you host this podcast?
Starting point is 00:26:25 Does he know you took a picture of the picture and said on the internet that he went to that doctor? Well, here's what happened. I said, wait, what did I say? It did come up. They were like, what do you do for a living? Finally. I've been going there for three years.
Starting point is 00:26:39 And he was like, what do you do for a living? And I was like, I don't know. I do a little bit of this, a little bit of that. And he's like, what does that mean? And I was like, well, one thing I do is I host a podcast. And he was like, I don't know. I do a little bit of this, a little bit of that. And he's like, what does that mean? And I was like, well, one thing I do is I host a podcast. And he was like, oh, like, do people listen to it? And I was like, some. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:26:51 also, I have plugged your name first and last on the show a lot, because you're a really good eye doctor. And he was like, and then he demanded to know how many listeners we have, how many Instagram followers I have. So, hopefully... He demanded? What's that? He demanded to know? Yeah, well well not him but the person next to him
Starting point is 00:27:06 is kind of his business manager so you weren't even talking to your doctor I was talking to him and her Rita and Arthur right oh very Russian what's Arthur's last name
Starting point is 00:27:14 Aura Zero Zero's really good Arthur Zero the family grows they tried to get me to post to my story that I was at the eye doctor
Starting point is 00:27:23 and I was like that's not gonna move the needle for y'all at all. No free pub. Exactly right. So I told them that my CPI. Yeah, you should have gotten a free zap out of it. Yeah. My CPI was cost per eye of LipiFlow.
Starting point is 00:27:36 So basically I was like, for one eye, I'll do one post. For two eyes, I'll do, yeah. When you sent me a screenshot of your calendar invite and it said Lipaflow, I thought you were doing some sort of like cool sculpting. I did too. I did too. Liposuction. I was like, that's his secret.
Starting point is 00:27:51 There's nothing to liposuction. I've always wanted to know. Don't look at me when you talk. I just am looking for, I'm scanning everyone's eyes to make sure. We don't want you to. No, because the issue is when you're already this shredded, jacked, and lean. You're malnourished. Really?
Starting point is 00:28:07 You're already making thin. Although we did see him eat two bags of potato chips. Yeah. That's all I've had today, though. Yeah. It's often all you've had today. It's often, yeah, because people make fun of me for having the baggy clothes, for having the thin ass ankles.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Nobody ever talks about the vascularity. Nobody says that you can see a vein. Yeah. Yeah, we can't see that because of the baggy clothes yeah right so cool sculpting you said I'll make an appointment no don't Linda Evangelista had a horrible experience don't do it you guys
Starting point is 00:28:36 I won't I won't I thought hers was like plastic surgery no it was cool sculpting. Yeah, she never recovered from that. What's that? And we're back.
Starting point is 00:28:49 We're so back. Are you kidding me? It really does sound like you right now saying it's crazy. Well, it is true. And I probably said it sitting right here. It really sounds like it's in this room. It really sounds like it's in this room. That's what I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:29:01 That's exactly what I was going to say. Jeff, I thought you had some segments for us. I do have some segments, yeah. Okay. Is this episode going to come out this's what I was going to say. Yeah. That's exactly what I was going to say. Jeff, I thought you had some segments for us. I do have some segments, yeah. Okay. Is this episode going to come out this year? I don't think so. Really?
Starting point is 00:29:10 This is a January episode. I think it's either December 29th or whatever Friday that is or it's the new year. So last episode of that year or a first episode of the next year.
Starting point is 00:29:20 I'm going to say something. But no mention of any of that stuff. Please do. We were booked well into January. We were booked well into January. That's what I was going to say. Wow. Like this of any of that stuff. We were booked well into January. We were booked well into January. That's what I was going to say. Wow. Like this could have been in the new year,
Starting point is 00:29:27 but then Jeff canceled a bunch of recordings. That's true. I feel like we already recorded a January 6th episode, or was that earlier this year? That's a plan that I have for why I'm going to D.C. the first week of January. Sort of a revelation. January 6th.
Starting point is 00:29:43 I remember recording an episode of this. Oh, it's just going to be like a celebration. January 6th. And explain more about that. It's just going to be like a celebration. It's just going to be a remembrance. And are you going to look for evidence a la Lady Gaga? I think I might wear meat a la her, but I might also take action. Right.
Starting point is 00:30:00 You're sort of pulling from different eras. Exactly right. So I'm going to like smirk and smile out of right. You're sort of pulling from different eras. Exactly right. So I'm gonna like, I'm gonna kind of like smirk and smile out of, I get it, as I walk into my house, rather. But in meat.
Starting point is 00:30:14 In heat. And I'm gonna steal a podium first. Voice from? Come on. Casey's impression of me is just goofy. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:30:30 There comes a time when it's too much. Are we there? Are we on the line? Teeter-tottering. Whatever you were about to say is what I was going to say. What was the last audition you went on? This weekend I have aned for Night Court. Wait, you went back in time?
Starting point is 00:30:51 No, Night Court is back. Can you believe it? They brought it back. Night Court is back. After the 30 Rock episode, they still brought it back. That's right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Same network, too. Night Court is what it's called. Yeah. It really is the name of the episode. It would be funny if your agent sent you on, like, had to make up fake auditions for you. And that's what... I'm just to be nice to him. They're bringing it back.
Starting point is 00:31:17 Really? To me, that sounds fake, but apparently it's real. Yeah. Yeah, on Peacock, I believe. It's, like, already out? Like, on? I's real. Yeah. Yeah, on Peacock, I believe. It's like already out? Like on? I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:27 I've seen commercials. Well, Jeff, I'm rooting for you. Here's the thing. I just want to make a ton of money. Sure. Like, what's that? Sure. What's that?
Starting point is 00:31:36 Sure. There's easier ways to make a ton of money than acting. Casey's saying what's that to himself. Setting himself up for a what's that. Well, my point is like these shows, like, you know, not a, I don't want to shut up.
Starting point is 00:31:49 What part on Night Court? The judge? Doctor. A doctor? Surely, well. So you want to be a like true detective. I want to be in a show
Starting point is 00:31:58 where the residuals are thus. Like I did that one episode of The Neighborhood and it paid me, I'm going to bleep this No way. In residuals?
Starting point is 00:32:07 Okay. Yeah. That makes sense for the way you spend money as a joke. Like a day rate? I'm going to cut this. Everything cool on your phone or? Are we podcasting right now you know this song do you know this song you're the only person here who would know this song
Starting point is 00:32:33 it's it's uh the they just they just is this the remastered version uh yeah
Starting point is 00:32:42 from 2008 were you about to say they just remastered it? Yeah. It's been 15 years. They just put out Tim. That was the replacements. It was. They just remastered Tim.
Starting point is 00:32:53 It sounds great. Spotify wrapped. Let's fucking talk about it. I want to know what you guys... Why did you choose that song to lead us into it? That was my number one song this year. No way. Yeah, you know what the best fucking part of it is?
Starting point is 00:33:04 It's this part. Hang on. Wait, Jeff, you're going to lose your mind. Do you know whose favorite band this is? Nick. Yes, ma'am.
Starting point is 00:33:12 You've been trying so hard. I love this song. That's good. I can't believe it. I thought you liked The Grateful Dead. Exclusively. You can't believe it. I thought you liked The Grateful Dead. Exclusively. You can like a lot of music.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Do you like Dave Matthews' band? Wait. I would love to read for you my... Are you Dave Matthews' guy? You seem like a Dave Matthews. I seem like a Daver? Yeah, you seem like a Daver. You and Mike Mitchell.
Starting point is 00:33:45 That is the rudest thing anyone's, I think, ever said to me. I'm not a Daver. It's, yeah. You guys are all making fun of... I'm not making fun of anybody. You are. I'm saying I'm not a Daver. Jake Hurwitz, Big Dave.
Starting point is 00:34:01 Is this your number two song? This is his version of Burning Down the House, which I do like. Because he just kind of is at an 11 out of 10. Yeah, I bet you like that. But I'm not a Dave-er. Allie? Yeah? Spotify Rats, let's talk about it.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Spotify Rats! Ah, what? Allie? Yeah? Spotify raft? Let's talk about it. Spotify raft! Oh, what? Here's your bomba, char the grains. Time for a being on soy. That's so funny. Yeah, can everybody airdrop me their raft? I don't fucking listen to Spotify. I don't have songs on my Spotify.
Starting point is 00:34:46 I can't airdrop. I can't participate. I'm sorry. You have, though, listened to music on Spotify this year, which means you would have a rap. You listened to airdrop what? I'm a little rapped by this segment. How do you airdrop? R-A-I-D-T.
Starting point is 00:34:59 I'm a little airdropping it to you. You can cancel. Okay. Jeff already sent you one. Yeah, I got yours. I want everybody else's because that was a really good idea to airdrop across the room on the day to you. You can cancel. Okay. Jeff, I already sent you mine. Yeah, I got yours. I want everybody else's because that was a really good idea to airdrop across the room
Starting point is 00:35:07 all day to have. I did. I did. I did. I did kind of edit that. That's what I was going to say. No people found near me. Number four has a lot to do with you.
Starting point is 00:35:15 I can't do it. Okay, I'm sending you mine. Okay. Very good. Okay. And then let's get Casey's for sure and then Amir's to boot. You're not showing up on my airdrop.
Starting point is 00:35:25 I think you might have blocked me as a contact. I don't have Spotify Premium. Do I need that to have a raft? Amir, serious question. No connotation. What generation are you, technically? I was born in 83, so I think I'm the oldest millennial.
Starting point is 00:35:42 What's tough for me is that Casey just sent me his whole playlist of your top songs. Isn't that what you wanted? No, I wanted the screenshot. You wanted the screenshot. Yeah, it's hard because I'm talking to a bunch of millennials. Whoa. Sorry. Except for you.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Except. Allie, you're Gen Z. I'm cusp. You're zillennial. I'm technically a millennial, yeah. All right. No, I'll take that. I'll take everybody.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Okay. Let me try this again try this again where they're at thank you do you want my top songs or my top artists don't do that I have a hilarious top I'm the only one that understands you I'm the only one who's understood the assign
Starting point is 00:36:22 that's because you guys are both Gen Z I'm sending you my top artists all The only one that understands you. Ally's the only one who's understood the assign. That's because you guys are both Gen Z. All right, I'm sending you my top artists. All very, very white 40-year-old. Yeah. Dave Matthews. Not even. Oh, it's the, it's the, what was it called?
Starting point is 00:36:41 The Boardwalk Empire soundtrack and then a boardwalk singing quartet. And the people who did the Folgers commercial. Oh, yes. That would be number one. The Bay Area South Groove or whatever. My top band is the U.S. Males. Everyone. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:36:56 That's why my number four is so funny. What's fucked up is that all four of you guys. Sorry, the fifth one was me leaving room for Jesus Christ. All four of you guys didn't airdrop the same thing, and then Amir texted me the right thing, but he texted it to me. He didn't airdrop it. You're not telling us what the right thing is. I don't fucking care. I did it first, and this was my idea, and you said it was what I did was right.
Starting point is 00:37:16 I said it was genius. I just texted you something else. It's just fuck you. Unbelievable. All right, here we go. I just sent you a text that says fuck you. So I don't know what else to do do all my do
Starting point is 00:37:30 the best aroma's always coming through it should be honestly inside a mug folders inside of a cup whipped cream inside of bean juice that's how you char the foam.
Starting point is 00:37:46 If you could switch from rice to coffee, I think that could be a whole new album concept for you. Roasted beans inside a home. That's how my mug's filled with foam. We still gotta sell the rice record first. Yeah. What about Graceland? Then there's the bean. Because I'm going to bean juice.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Bean juice. All I need is a light roast, light roast. Allie, this looks like you gamed the system. I didn't. Headphones back on. Allie is so in the cultural conversation with this. You really are. You really have your finger on the pulse.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Yeah. I try. I'm trying. Top artists are Taylor Swift. This is an order. Taylor Swift, Boy Genius, SZA, Chapel Roan, Phoebe Bridgers. That's just. Pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Like what everybody thinks is cool music. Yeah. It's almost. It is almost like you were like, what do what musicians do cool people think are cool to listen to? And then I thought those are intentional. put those on overnight yeah sorry i was actually yeah not even close to finished basically i i'm not a i'm not jacuzziing you but i do fear that you just put cool music on on repeat as you fell asleep
Starting point is 00:39:01 each night which is what i said earlier is that you said? Because I was about to say that. I said it first and before you. And already. And then we'll just, yeah. I feel like my answers are cooler than I'm dying to hear yours. I want to hear your listens too. This will
Starting point is 00:39:19 be new for me. Should we hit them with an Anya Radio Free Radio Recap show? Yeah. I'm free associating slash disassociating. new for me. Should we hit him with an Anya radio free radio recap show? Yeah. I'm free associating slash disassociating. I
Starting point is 00:39:30 always feel a fishbowl and a fowl. I feel askew. I feel off kilter. I feel like I have vertigo of the eyes and ears when I'm here
Starting point is 00:39:38 on this show behind the desk. Yeah, we know. Number one is Lana Del Rey for Anya. Oh, I thought you were reading a meme. I know. I was like same. Which, while I love her, I don't think is accurate, Rey for Anya. Oh, I thought you were reading a meme. I know, I was like, same.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Which, while I love her, I don't think is accurate, but that's fine. Number two is crazy for you. I know. Number two is Johann Sebastian Bach. I know. So, do you do work to him? Yeah. But again, seems off.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Yeah. Number three isn't even a band. It's just like a collection of people chatting in the present day. No, it's a... It's like Euro pop duo. It's like a collection of people chatting in the present no it's a um it's a euro pop duo it's like a modern talking let's say on the same time three two one modern and talking also just modern they're german yeah um anders and tamas uh you're a little too european for my tastes is that fair to say? it's not okay
Starting point is 00:40:26 to say at all xenophobic arachnophobic because there's eight countries I don't like in Europe and Germany and Russia are right up there that's exactly wrong I mean ultimately the biggest perpetrators that's not true, Great Britain and, the biggest perpetrators of evil. That's not true. Great Britain.
Starting point is 00:40:45 And ultimately, the biggest perpetrators were the Hells Angels. That was a really good joke. Are you going to tell them about number four? Number four is U.S. Marine Band. So I don't know what that's about. Not really true. Feels like violence. Did I not show you this?
Starting point is 00:41:00 No. It said it was like U.S. Marine Band, month most listened to, February. And I was like, oh, that's when we needed to play music in the public domain during the live stream. And I think what happened was that Jake, our overnight engineer, left the Spotify on all night. Because it somehow took the number four spot. Wow. So you don't listen to Spotify that much or that is your default? No, she does.
Starting point is 00:41:26 You're just trying to group people in with your ass. This is an intervention. This is an innovention. People that use Apple Music. You use Apple Music? I actually don't listen to that much music. I usually use YouTube. That's what I was waiting for you to say.
Starting point is 00:41:42 I usually use YouTube except for when I'm listening to I don't know if you want to get to mine already, or if I'm last. We're in the middle of Anya's. I don't know why you're trying to dictate shit. We're pretty much done. Respect you as a boss? No, you're a dictator. I'm sorry. I got some names wrong. Modern Talking is Dieter Bohlen and Thomas Anders. I feel like I need to put
Starting point is 00:42:00 respect in their names. Oh, thank God. Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. Thank God. Again, it is important to me. Number five is Fleetwood Mac. Yeah, whatever. You can burn your own charm. Which again, I don't think is right. Like these are not my top.
Starting point is 00:42:11 These aren't my top. These are your favorite. But you do like them. But my top songs are more accurate because it's Sonny and Cher. I think that your top Spotify artist is... I completely agree with you. Mine has never felt true to me. I saw this guy on... Top Spotify artists. Bomba Rice, the soy is globbing. I completely agree with you.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Mine has never felt true to me. I saw this guy on TikTok. Excuse me, Jeff. We're talking. The adults are talking, Jeff, if you could for a second. I saw a guy on TikTok post how he still has his last FM account linked. And then he was like, they did not line up. I believe that.
Starting point is 00:42:42 However, I will say the most important part of this whole conversation is that it will have, it's airing about a month to a month and a half after everybody's done talking about their Spotify rap. Yeah, we're already working hard on our
Starting point is 00:42:55 2024 raps. No one's going to find this interesting at all. A lot of people wrote in the last 20 minutes. But I did think the U.S. Marine Band one was relevant to you, Jeff. I thought you would like that,
Starting point is 00:43:03 but you didn't react at all. I don't remember that at all because that whole thing was kind of a 24-hour dissociative episode for me. That sent me into a year-long spiral. We are starting a new one right now, which is why it's funny. I am so nervous to come in for the Mario Kart suite. 48 hours. I do think 48 hours would be really funny if there's built-in time to sleep. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:43:23 48 hours. It would be so funny. I don't want to do it, but it would be really funny if there's built-in time to sleep. Oh, my God. 48 hours. It would be so funny. I don't want to do it, but it would be so funny. Built-in time to sleep. So. Not that exciting for 16 of the 48. A 48-hour stream with, like, an eight-hour window to sleep. Just to pass out.
Starting point is 00:43:39 It would be like what Katy Perry did. Exactly right. What did she do? She was, like, in a live streamed house for, I don't know, I think it was like a couple days. It was like 72 hours. Yeah, she slept. They're kind of cracking down on sleep streams these days. There's no low that's too low for Katie Perry.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Yeah, they want people to be interacting with the chats, and you can't do that if you're sleeping on stream. Have you seen the TikTok where it's like, like it to create an alarm in my room? The fact that people were talking over you, that just then create an alarm in my room. Well, what I'm saying is that people were talking over you that you're trying to stop people. That's indicative of the generational gap. Who's they? Like, as you get older,
Starting point is 00:44:10 what you have to say will become less and less important. The government? Amir, I have a question for you. Yeah, mine as well be. If you don't listen... Say that. Say that, Casey.
Starting point is 00:44:18 If you don't listen... Casey said the CIA is in charge of YouTube. Sorry. Try saying that ten times, Donahue. This has been the weirdest episode.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Yeah, why? There's like multiple... It doesn't feel like the episode started. It's like we're multiple conversations happening at the same time. That's never happened
Starting point is 00:44:35 on this show. Say that, Donahue. I'm trying to... Pull on two different people having two different conversations. You can't do the last thing on a Friday. You just can't.
Starting point is 00:44:45 It's too weird. It's loopy. Amir. Here we go. What are yours? Do you listen to music or are you one of those guys that's not really into it? I'm telling you, I don't listen to music that much. I listen to individual songs that like, oh, I should listen to this song, but I use YouTube.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Except for. I feel like, can I guess? Yeah. Number one is that song, I Don't Care, I Love It. I do like that song, but that's not number one. I do use Spotify to listen to the Bo Burnham Inside special
Starting point is 00:45:09 that was two years ago yeah but I still think about it and when I play it I only listen to it on Spotify so he's my number one what's your favorite song from it? I like a lot of songs on there but I do like Welcome to the Internet and I like the That's How the World Works song and I like the That Funny Feeling the world works song and I like the
Starting point is 00:45:25 that funny feeling the one that he plays on guitar is this did you book this Bo Burnham cross promo stuff that Amir's doing just kind of naturally in the episode
Starting point is 00:45:34 oh no that's just natural what I listen to on Spotify have you heard Phoebe Bridger's cover of yeah she did a cover of that song do you know what they're dating I saw that I saw that they were dating
Starting point is 00:45:42 but I haven't heard that version I'll send it to you later okay cool and then the other four are just bands that I've played slash liked which is like Eminem Weezer Do you know what they're dating? I saw that they were dating, but I haven't heard that version. I'll send it to you later. Okay, cool. And then the other four are just bands that I've played slash liked, which is like Eminem, Weezer, Neutral Milk Hotel. Yeah. Bunch of white dudes. What's your favorite Eminem song?
Starting point is 00:45:55 What I will say is that the Eminem song, what's the one, Lose Yourself? Lose Yourself, yeah. Never has a song been used by so many mediocre men to hype themselves up for something that doesn't matter. It's not mom's spaghetti. You're about to like log in to like a lumberyard. I just watched Isn't that where he worked
Starting point is 00:46:14 in 8 Mile? Is it? I think so. Similar. I'm so synchronicious. I'm so synchronicious. He's doing an Eminem song right now. I'm synchronicious. Rapp synchronicious. Synchronous. This sucks. He's doing an Eminem song right now. I'm synchronicious. Rap-pernicious. I'm rapped with your Spotify rap.
Starting point is 00:46:33 And then there was one that I forgot. It was Weezer, maybe Ben Folds. It's got to be the Ben Folds 5. Yeah. It doesn't have to be the Ben Folds 5. It could just be Ben Folds. Really? It could be.
Starting point is 00:46:42 For a mirror? I saw Ben Folds debut his symphony. He wrote a symphony, and he debuted it in Cleveland. My friend's sister played the cello in it. So sick. Awesome. I saw Weezer in concert on September 12, 2001. Well, Ben Folds, I was just going to say.
Starting point is 00:47:00 They did not cancel their show. Ben Folds, that album came out on? 9-11. Yeah. All right, here we go. So that's weird for you. There I was. My musical tastes haven't evolved since I was 18.
Starting point is 00:47:11 It's because you haven't gone out of your comfort zone musically. I don't think they need to necessarily. I was just shocked to hear Eminem second. I feel like Amir would like Hot To Go. Did you know that I had pictures of Eminem in my... You didn't know. Here, I'm telling you for the first time. I had pictures of him taped up in my locker in sixth grade.
Starting point is 00:47:25 In your locker, I was going to say. And I would like, before class, like I thought he was so cute. Did I tell you who my first kiss was? He was my number one. And then my dad bought me a CD. So you love Eminem too? Not in a long time. I was like 12.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Of course. My dad bought me a Walkman and I asked my mom to buy me the Eminem CD. Wow. She didn't know what it was. It was a little shady. I think it was the Marshall Mathers LP. And then my dad was like, let me try out this Walkman.
Starting point is 00:47:52 I want to know the sound quality. You just said Walkman, but you held your hands out as if you were using a walker. And then he listened to that CD. What's that? He listened to that CD and he said, I can't listen to Eminem anymore. Interesting. Your dad couldn't listen to Eminem. What's that? He listened to that CD and he said, I can't listen to Eminem anymore. Interesting.

Starting point is 00:49:33 here we go this is a game I like to call medical procedure or cheating let's start with IUD implantation is that is that a medical procedure or are you actually
Starting point is 00:49:43 just cheating on your partner the episode should end right there but if you want to have this whole segment Is that a medical procedure or are you actually just cheating on your partner? The episode should end right there. But if you want to have this whole segment, that's a medical procedure. Really? Yeah. But someone else is in there. Jeff.
Starting point is 00:50:03 Whatever. Let's keep going. Pr prostate exam yeah it seems like medical procedure or cheating i'm sensing a pattern here that one's cheating right that one's cheating depends on who's doing it the doctor a doctor at a fucking well then it's cheating exactly well it's i almost feel like and we're the location it could be a, but if you're in a motel. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. It's like, I would never get a prostate exam if I was in a monogamous relationship.
Starting point is 00:50:33 That's not fair to them. That's why, or you're scared of what they might find. Or of them going in. And is that a rule that you like? No, I don't think he's scared of them going in. I think he's scared of what's inside of them. Yeah, he's afraid of fissures in his ass or the relationship
Starting point is 00:50:50 coming to light. That's a lawsuit. That's the lawsuit. What? He finally got you. You said so much worse. Wonderful. Was that also you? his pile
Starting point is 00:51:07 hysteroscopy hysteroscopy I mostly brought this up because I didn't realize that don't look at me don't make eye contact during this segment what's the chicken or the egg? hysteria or the fact that a lot of gynecological exams and procedures
Starting point is 00:51:24 start with hysteria were you trying to say hysterectomy? No. No, hysteria. No, hysteroscopy. You're talking about the camera in the uterus. Hysterectomy is removal. Removal.
Starting point is 00:51:34 Not removal, just camera. Does hysteria come from gynecological exams, and is that the etymology of hysteria, that as a thing? Or hysterical. Are these medicalymology of hysteria? That as a thing. Or hysterical. Are these medical procedures named after hysteria? I bet it's like backed in through sexist ideology that's like only women can be hysterical. And it's based on...
Starting point is 00:51:56 Is that your lawyer? Who the hell is that? Is that Nick? Yeah. Nick! Ask him about the band. Ask him about replacements. You'll never guess Jeff's number one song
Starting point is 00:52:05 on Spotify ask him about the Bearsville that's another thing that's never happened before it was a weird episode well she is having another conversation it was a replacement song
Starting point is 00:52:13 I think you can't take your Spotify well no let's hang on a second on the phone who we can't even hear what they're saying and she had no hesitation
Starting point is 00:52:20 to pick it up you remember Jeff we met him last year for like a second answering it for more than a second what felt like an eternity I think this might be the worst episode ever no I don't think so are you coming here no hesitation to pick it up. You remember Jeff? We met him last year for like a second. For more than a second. It felt like an eternity.
Starting point is 00:52:27 I think this might be the worst episode ever. No, I don't think so. I think it's... Are you coming here? What? Good point. Nick? Oh, I didn't
Starting point is 00:52:33 because I was busy. Busy with what? Dating him? Sort of a constant practice of yoga in a way. I'll get it expensed. Yeah. We need just like
Starting point is 00:52:44 plastic tarps to paint the studio. Does he not have a day job? How is he able to do this unpaid? She's salary, so it's not helpful to her. It's after four on a Friday, and here in Los Angeles, it's like... What about, okay, we have to move on. I'll text you. General urology appointment.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Is that cheating or a medical procedure? Bye. What's the procedure? General urology appointment. Is that cheating or a medical procedure? We're still doing this segment. I thought we were done. Did nobody like this one? This might be a dud.

Starting point is 00:53:35 with someone other than your monogamous partner? Is that a medical procedure? That's cheating. That's cheating. Very good. I did cut you off at the hysteria of it all

Really? It was bad.
Starting point is 00:59:52 And I had to take a phone call during it. But, you know, that means that Nick was basically on the show. It's going to say whatever the title of this episode is, and then it's going to say, with Nick, whatever his last name is. Bond or whatever. Ha ha ha!
