Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a HeadGum Original. Previously on the HeadGum Podcast. I am gonna get rich fast and then I'm gonna rest on my laurels. Canyon or otherwise. Get rich quick and die young. Get ripped quick and get rich fast. I'm gonna sell my semen. I'm gonna sell my semen to semen.
Starting point is 00:00:27 Sailors in Marina Del Rey are gonna own part of me marines in Marina Del Rey and so it continues singing i love variants spent a lot of time in Cape Town, baby. COVID variants. Just took a trip to London town. Ow. My lungs hurt. Smile till I get up.
Starting point is 00:01:19 Are you fucking kidding me? The fact that it was double blown out. It was so loud. We're to assume you what? Went to South Africa and then London. London town, yeah. So you went all the way to Africa, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Contracted the variant there. I happened to. I assume quarantined for 14 days. I should have done that. That's where I made my first mistake. My second mistake was not... Your first mistake was going to Africa right now. And then you somehow got on the plane to London, which is what?
Starting point is 00:01:54 A 16-hour flight? Yeah, that's like 14 and a half hours. And then my third mistake was getting there and then not quarantining once I got there. I don't even know if we should count the mistakes. This is the third. They're all so bad. It just makes one epic mistake.
Starting point is 00:02:10 With us, as usual, is Finn Wolfhard, Billy Brick, and Amir... How do you pronounce your last name? I don't want to get it wrong. Blumenfeld. You've said it before and you will say it again. Amir Blumenthal. Feld. I feel awful that I'm peaking for you guys.
Starting point is 00:02:27 Well, you peaked a long time ago, Jeff. No. I mean. That was a perfectly timed applause. When did you add sound effects to the show? Damn, Daniel. What the fuck? We should say that Finn, Billy,
Starting point is 00:02:44 you guys are in Santa Fe, right? No, sure. Why not? You've gotten it wrong four times. Are you, is that real?

Starting point is 00:03:08 I said as usual also we're not as usual this is the first time ever on the HeadGum Podcast yeah like set the stage build some context really that was the loudest sound that's ever happened I didn't assume that because when you assume

Starting point is 00:03:43 and it was high time that I get high. No. On the line. What's the first segment? Just launch it to the show. We don't need to do this fucking bizarre small talk that you have planned. We've never seen the Terminator when you're high during tea time.

Gotcha. during tea time tea time get into it daddy chill daddy daddy chill gotcha um no actually though let's uh let's get into it how is the shoot going you guys are on a movie is it an a24 movie or am i making that up it is interesting it is yeah we're having fun it's uh jesse eisenberg's directorial debut wow uh yeah super it's really great we're having

Starting point is 00:04:41 which I thought was interesting oh yeah I appreciate it thank you and amir is and amir is muted oh sorry about that yeah i was saying thank you oh yeah jeff jeff is muting me yeah jeff is muting me but you won't be able to hear that because i'm still recording myself so that won't really make sense so yeah you're actively ruining the show you're hosting jeff you're gonna make you're one of the best tests i've ever seen what jimmy fallon's got nothing on you well that's what i've been texting amir as like i
Starting point is 00:05:10 i'm a good interview um say what you will you're a good interviewer or a good interview both like i'm wondering if the times maybe does a piece on my ass so i can get that blue check which times which times la new york fucking financial i don don't care. You think the Financial Times will do it? An article on you. I don't know. I mean, I have a savings account. Right. You live in your parents.
Starting point is 00:05:30 You live in your parents' house in Ohio. That's true. That is true. For the time being, slash for the foreseeable future. Yeah, for the last year, right? Don't make that face like you're... Considering something. He's thinking about it for the first time.
Starting point is 00:05:44 No, I'm like trying to wrap my head around it uh yeah because it's not ideal right because you're also paying rent so it's not like a money saving thing either you're sort of it's the worst of both worlds you're spending money on rent in la but then you're also dealing with living at home as an adult so i would say you're doing 25 600 minutes is how long this pandemic has felt because i've had to pay rent you're so happy you're so happy that you made it's also that is how long it's been it's it's almost march again so don't say it's felt like a year it's been a year that's accurate how has shooting been with covid protocols you guys are the only people i know uh acting we're just like not following them it's been really cool holy shit
Starting point is 00:06:30 so nobody's wearing a mask we're getting tested no yeah that's the thing is like we all kind of say we're getting tested but it's like a bit of uh like we're all like winking at each other like oh yeah like i got the test and then has anybody gotten anybody gotten sick? A lot of people, shockingly. I think it's flu season or something. That makes sense. No, it's been really awesome, actually. No, we, yeah, we test every day and everyone's wearing masks. And we have like, if we're ever shooting inside, like everyone has to stay far apart.
Starting point is 00:06:58 And if you don't need to be in the room, you aren't. And whenever we're in between takes, they turn on like basically fans, they open windows. So that air is always circulating. Wow. It's been good. It's been like gone off without a hitch, starting Eva Mendes. Hitch?
Starting point is 00:07:12 Starring Eva Mendes? No, no, no. I just said it's done without a hitch, starring Eva Mendes. Because Hitch is not starring Eva Mendes. Oh, she was in that film? She's in it. She's in it. She's in it.
Starting point is 00:07:22 She's in it. Is she? All right. So's in it. She's in it. She's in it. Is she? All right. So is Kevin James. Yeah, of course Kevin James is in it. He's the star of it. I don't know why you know about the other characters in that. What is it?
Starting point is 00:07:35 14-year-old movie at this point? Longer than that. I re-watched Hitch over the summer, and Kevin James, he's kind of silly in it. There's a lot of physical blunders. There's just a lot of physical blunders. He's wacky in a way. So a comedian in a romantic comedy
Starting point is 00:07:54 is silly in it. He's silly and he's simping in it. What does that mean? It means that he's sort of a simp for the British, whoever he falls in love with. I forget. Cameron Diaz? Charlize Theron? I don't think it's either of those people. Amir, I have to ask.
Starting point is 00:08:10 How is Charlize? Yes. Yes. Charlize is amazing. You guys, we have to have Charlize on the show. She's so... And she would love this show because she has such a good sense of humor. That'd be great. I think Charlize might do it. Yeah, I think if I just texted Charlize about it, I think... She just needs like a week or two heads up
Starting point is 00:08:26 and then yeah Charlize would love to be on the show yeah Charlize Charlize usually needs to she needs you know Finn gets it she needs her time she needs her beauty sleep see it doesn't shock me that Finn would know Charlize the thing that always gets me here
Starting point is 00:08:42 is that Amir is close with Charlize Theron and we love Charlize yeah what is it Theron or Theron I don't know Charlize oh to me she's just the Lise yeah she's Lisey going and Lisey does it and she's Lisey breezy beautiful she's a cover girl I don't know her last name I don't need to know her last name to me she's simply an angel. Charlie's angel, specifically. And she's... Charlie's. Theron, I think is how you pronounce it. Thyroid. It's definitely not thyroid. She has a goiter.
Starting point is 00:09:14 A thyroid condition, so that's kind of her nickname. And it's stuck. That's not for me's or you's to talk about. Let's just move on. We'll have Charlize on. She can talk about it. Billy, are you seeing anybody? Jesus.
Starting point is 00:09:26 You text me this every day. You text me this every day. Jeff also texted me what my body count is. Yeah, yeah. Gotcha journalism. Don't talk to people like that, especially like podcasters on HeadGum. It makes me uneasy. It's probably illegal. Just let's keep it. Welcome to Bombard Wolf Hard. What was that? Was that Les Mis? The Russian National Anthem.
Starting point is 00:10:09 The National Anthem of the USSR. How did you know that, Finn? He's been a Russian operative for the better part of a decade. It's not that far from Vancouver to Eastern Russia. What was your question going to be, Jeff? All right, so this is basically this segment where the floor is open. of me jeff all right so this is uh this basically this segment where the floor is open finn is allowing us into his life unto his personal uh property issues relationships etc uh so amir billy feel free to chime in but i have a list just of some extremely invasive questions finn so if you don't mind and again you can pass but you know maybe we'll get one of these and uh this
Starting point is 00:10:42 whole thing will go viral here we. First and last name of the person you lost your virginity to. What the fuck is your problem? Pass, right? What are you talking about? You don't have to answer any of these. I'm just posing these. All right, pass.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Exact street address. You don't have to. Personal. How much money did you make in 2020? Pass. All right. Oh, wait. Well, Finn, play along a little bit.
Starting point is 00:11:02 You don't have to answer all these, but don't be like a total wet blanket. Jeff invited us on. Don't give him an inch because then he'll start asking even more somehow invasive questions even though he's already asked like the three worst ones. This is the best phone number to reach you at? No no no you don't have to say that. Do not say
Starting point is 00:11:18 it out loud. If you want I'll bleep it. If you want me to I'll bleep it. Of course I want you to bleep it. Alright alright. And Billy I'm here again chime in. This whole segment want you to bleep it. All right, all right. And Billy, I'm here again. Chime in. This whole segment is bombarding. All right, next. I have to leave. Next question.
Starting point is 00:11:29 Or I'll be under arrest. I have to leave or else I'll be in trouble. Jeff, just if you have any other questions, keep going. How much do you weigh? Like one. Pass. You don't have to answer that. Don't let him weigh his IMDB. So that imdb so okay so is mine but uh
Starting point is 00:11:48 i lied to him sweetheart what what does it say million dollars is that how much you made in 2020 now what is what is your say is the most illegal thing you've ever done he got a pipe he got a pipe it's a pipe oh it's a uh it's a gentleman's pipe i started a fight club with judd hirsch and emil hirsch the hirsch brothers you don't know them are they even related no of course not um shit that was all i had for bombard Wolfhard. Billy hasn't said jack. So, I'm sorry. So, okay.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Yeah. Let me recap. The segment started with the national anthem to the USSR. Correct. Right? Good so far. Then the entire segment of three minutes was based on a rhyme. I actually, that's interesting.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Is it? All right, go on. I now see that it was based on a rhyme, which is kind of neat. No, terrible. To base something off of a rhyme, right? Think of any really popular media. Yeah. Titles of songs. Tucker Carlson tonight.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Doesn't rhyme. The Tonight Sharson starring Johnny Carson. But it's spelled The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson. Finn left. He left, which makes sense. This show is sponsored by BetterHelp. You know, if you had an extra hour in your day, a lot of people would spend that very differently than the one sitting next to them.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Maybe person A would go for a run, person B would take a nap, and patient zero would read a book. The point is, a lot of us spend our time and our lives wishing we had more hours in the day. And the question is, what is that time for? And if time was unlimited, how would you use it?

Starting point is 00:17:06 felt like i kind of blew it on the bombard wolfhard segment i feel like i had some cues that i was burning to ask that i was just kind of too chicken to that wasn't the only segment of this show was it no no no no we have two more yeah do they all rhyme act you know now that you mention it it's kind of interesting um they do it's not a certain ring to each other so they all rhyme with each other but they all rhyme within themselves i guess most of the pandemic has only been going on for like a year yeah exactly yeah it's a lot 51 weeks i was expecting it to be longer well it's still going on so you're kind of right what put a mask on you're currently dialed in from a mall put a mask on he's shopping at a grocery store i'm in a cheesecake factory right indoor dining we're not allowed to like
Starting point is 00:18:00 skateboard or indoor dine i don't know what to do with my time why not skateboard that's like in case like i rolled my ankle or something got it unrelated to covid jeff are you okay you're on your phone or something for the last three minutes of the podcast oh yeah no i'm fine i just like if you guys want to take over the fucking show like you're welcome to i just i'm not going to participate right holy shit that's a terrible attitude you're the host i'm just gonna say the first attitude i ever have on the podcast especially as the host welcome to sorry this is this one's too long of a title to sing along to the song this is dick
Starting point is 00:18:43 god i i feel like i interrupted you guys why don't you finish up the conversation you were This one's too long of a title to sing along to the song. This is Dick Van Dyke. God. I feel like I interrupted you guys. Why don't you finish up the conversation you were saying? No. Please. We're done. You fucking ruined the flow of it completely. This is a game called Dick Van Dyke or Billy Brick on a bike. So, I have...
Starting point is 00:19:00 Basically, I'm going to play a couple sound clips. You're absolutely free-balling this. You're absolutely improvising. How do you figure? There's no way you came up with that this morning or yesterday. I feel like there's no way I could come up with that on the fly. I think that's the only way you could come up with it, or anyone could come up with it.
Starting point is 00:19:12 What were you doing for three minutes on your phone? I was setting up a game, but it wasn't for the show. Just say your fucking thing. I'm going to play a couple sound clips. And then you guys, again, this is all for cash. I'm going to play a couple sound clips. And then you guys, again, this is all for cash. I'm going to play a couple sound clips. You guys tell me whether it's Dick Van Dyke. Sorry, this is all for cash?
Starting point is 00:19:30 Yeah, yeah. So basically $100 for every right answer, $100 owed to me for every wrong answer. I think Amir has ended up, I think he gave me like $2,000 because he kept getting things wrong the last time he played a game. But I'm going to play a sound clip and you guys are going to tell me whether it's Dick Van Dyke or Billy on a bike. I think I think I'm going to be pretty good at this. I think you shouldn't have made this for money. All right here we go. You guys ready? Yeah. Amir are you happy? No. All right number one. And you have to remember you know the president doesn't pass the laws. Congress carries out the will of the people and passes the law. That's a trick question. That's me on a unicycle. Billy owe me $100. That was
Starting point is 00:20:07 Dick Van Dyke. That was his endorsement of Bernie Sanders. Okay, cool. Alright, number two, are we all ready? I don't want to catch anybody off guard because clearly Billy wasn't ready. Here we go. Can I also guess this is a trick question is dick van dyke now riding a bike you owe me a hundred dollars that was billy brick on a bike billy i'm so sorry by the way to be airing these like private recordings that i made of you riding bicycles but yeah i don't know how you recorded them but i remember that did he crash at the end yes the seat was too high okay so what
Starting point is 00:20:46 you rode into something i saw a squirrel and i swerved and then i hit the curb there's like a sidewalk beside the bike lane in toronto and then i hit the curb fell and then got up and then i saw the squirrel come at me and then i fell the second time so the squirrel was kind of antagonizing you at that yeah it's like i tried to move out of its way and then i guess it saw me fall and then it like it just is very an opportunistic squirrel just knew that i was down and wanted to at that point he was just sort of trolling a squirrel walks into a bar let's just go to the third one let's go to the third the dick van dyke show starring dick van dyke this one seems like a no-brainer well that's The Dick Van Dyke Show. Starring Dick Van Dyke. This one seems like a no-brainer.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Well, that's probably not either, right? Like, it's the guy who said that is probably not. All right, Dick Van Dyke, final answer. You're right. Yes. That's $100 to him. Yes. Are you fucking kidding me? Yeah, I mean, it's related to Dick Van Dyke.
Starting point is 00:21:41 I mean, he probably didn't do the voiceover. I'm on the top of the squirrel. Don't ever own a dog. Alright, here we go. Whoa! I'm gonna guess it's Billy Brick on a bike. Correct. Finn's breaking even. Amir's up $100.
Starting point is 00:22:22 Billy's down $100 still. Here we go. Jim, I smoke three packs a day. Oh, me too. Yeah. Billy's down $100 still. Here we go. Jim, I smoke three packs a day. Oh, me too. That's why we have these voices. So you just stop. That was Larry King. That one was a trick
Starting point is 00:22:38 question. Also, he was talking to Dick Van Dyke. This is the worst segment of all time. Damn, Daniel. Back at it again with the white van. That's neither. Amir's up $200.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Billy's down. Finn, you're breaking even. Last one. All right, this one's triple or nothing. And the winner of it gets all the money pooled together, sent to them over Venmo. Here we go. Fuck!
Starting point is 00:23:19 Can I? That was me on a bike. That's a trick question. That's Billy on a motorcycle. That's correct. Finn, that's a trick question. That's Billy on a motorcycle. That's correct. Finn, you just got 200. You didn't say Billy Brick on a bicycle. Is a motorcycle still a bike? Don't make that face.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Don't make that face. Finn, what's your Venmo? I don't have a... I have a PayPal. All right, I'll do it later. Welcome to Inappropriate Statues. So that doesn't rhyme, right right you said they all rhymed inappropriate statue does not rhyme yeah kind of a small thing in the grand scheme of this shit show but you did say that they would all rhyme and two of the three did and then it was this one billy i wouldn't do that to you just felt like right i know but if i come on
Starting point is 00:24:41 lackluster video or lackluster audio or whatever i wouldn't fucking embarrass you on your own fucking show right you just said that they all rhymed and i figured like the only reason behind making the first two bombard wolfhard and billy brick on a bike versus dick van dyke is because of the rhyme it felt like you could have picked like if you if they didn't have to rhyme there's so many better games that we could have played okay yeah yeah you just kind of gave up on one but But keep going with the statues. Yeah, which one was this? I forget the name of this one already.
Starting point is 00:25:09 The name's less important. Basically, there's a news story. You guys seen this in the news? That's mine. Jay Leno. Nobody? I thought it was a mirror-cracked smile. I got it.
Starting point is 00:25:22 It wasn't funny. Come on down to Burbank. I have a garage full of cars. It's Jay Leno. Again. Onward. There's been... What?
Starting point is 00:25:33 What do you think this is? I think this is a tough room is what this is. No way. I think I'm giving you guys fucking gold. What did you think was going to happen?
Starting point is 00:25:41 When you did the Jay Leno twice. I didn't have a plan for the whole show, but with the Jay Leno thing especially, I thought I gonna come out like did you say this what's that I didn't say anything we were listening to this fucking impression listening to the thing you guys see this yeah there's a there's a story in the news and uh they're they're they're this is I don't fucking like I'm on the verge of tears at this point. Like, I'm fucking on the spot.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Billy's looking at me like my dad does. So that's disapproving. That's so sad. There's been bipartisan support in Tennessee for the erection of a Dolly Parton statue on the grounds of the Tennessee Capitol. But Dolly Parton herself opposes the statue. And she's quoted as saying given all that's going on in the world I don't think putting me on a pedestal is appropriate at this time
Starting point is 00:26:29 well if Dolly's involved now there's definitely going to be some erection happening that's really good well if Parton's and Dolly involved Ferris cut that out this segment is basically who else would be the worst people to erect statues of right now.
Starting point is 00:26:47 And where? And where. So person and place. Okay. Yeah. I like that. By the way, the Dolly Parton statue sounds like it would be a great idea, especially if she's so humble that she doesn't even want a statue.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Right. I'll start us off just because I came prepared. Jetty, what's that? I said yeah. You don't want to continue. You don't want to continue. You don't want to continue with your thought because you're so quick to, did somebody say something? You just, just be confident.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Do you think yeah is the start of a way longer sentence? Jetty Osmond in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. Let's start there. That one's fine, but yeah, ultimately unnecessary. Unnecessary. he's a role player how about this Andre Drummond in downtown Cleveland Ohio cause he's on his way out of there see that's a statue that should not be
Starting point is 00:27:32 there now or in that city yeah what about Alfonso Ribeiro on a booze cruise what about that is that a statue or you're talking about Carlton from the Fresh Prince just on a little yacht with a bunch of his boys pounding beers? I meant the statue, but that second one sounds fucking awesome.
Starting point is 00:27:51 I guess. What about Alexis Bledel on the Warner Brothers lot, just like in the center of Stars Hollow? Who's Alexis? Yeah, who is that? That's Rory Gilmore. Oh, Gilmore Girl. Fucking idiots. Don't get mad at us for not watching Gilmore Girls.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Yeah, for not watching, like, religiously. Let's move on. All right, how about half Jay Leno, half Jay Leto, Jared. Oh, that's good. And it's kind of like a two-faced Joker. You know what I mean? You know how Leno stabbed Conan in the back? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:20 And you've got the double Batman pun, and the Snyder cut is around the corner. Half Conan O'Brien, half Billy O'Kryan. Who's that? My sad Irish grandfather. He was so sad that his last name became O'Kryan? No, the other way around. It was just kind of destined from the beginning.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Tom Selleck in Hawaii. That's pretty good. Just because. Are we doing worst statues or best statues? Inappropriate. Inappropriate statues. For the Times. For the Times.
Starting point is 00:28:53 Oh, for the New York Times? No, Financial Times. What about Elon Musk at dusk? So it's a statue that only goes up at 5. And every night at 6.30. They take him down every night? At 6.30, it's torn down. That's right. At 6.30 every night at 6.30. They take him down every night? At 6.30, it's torn down. That's right.
Starting point is 00:29:07 At 6.30 every night, it's torrents down, meaning that it's taken down to torrents for storage. Torrents, yeah. Storrents, of course, being storage and torrents. How about Elon Musk meets Kevin Smith's Tusk? So it's Elon Musk, but he's a walrus. I am the walrus. Cuckoo Cachoo.

Starting point is 00:35:23 The dad rap bit. We cut the dad rap bit. That was the funniest part of the whole movie and because you thought that it was cancer to them and they had to get rid of it it was dying i'm actually upset about this i'm actually upset about this that that was my favorite scene in the movie exactly so it's so specific to like you so we'll use it for something else we'll do it as a we'll do it as a head gum sketch okay on over zoom we'll do it no i'll do it in the office do it in the office when you guys move to la amir i i shouldn't have had you go last because sort of bone dry and as far as content goes anything to plug?

I didn't mean that come on I just let's get back to having fun remember when we did the billy brick on a bike bit we were all having fun and like I feel like we could get back to that we never were I didn't understand that the third game didn't even rhyme
Starting point is 00:36:40 so let's just all compare our lives one second we're in New Mexico shooting a movie running a podcast company rhyme so let's just sorry let's just all compare our lives one second okay we're in new mexico yeah shooting a movie shooting uh i'm yours at home running a podcast company correct right yeah in a very nice big podcast company jeff yeah parents closet okay well ohio it's my bedroom in my parents house which happens to be a closet but yeah right of thick, large leather jackets behind you.

Starting point is 00:37:10 It looks like it smells in there. It's very hard leather, too. It's hard to hide the smell of hides. Have you guys seen The Rookie? No. I made the rookie mistake of putting a leather hide as a rug.
Starting point is 00:37:26 Did they make that mistake in the movie, or was that just nothing to do with it? Because I don't think that in that movie they're going to put a leather hide as a rug. They didn't end up doing it, but I wonder if there's a draft of it where they might have. Similar to the dad rap bit. You just responded really well to the leather hide on the floor as a rug bit and then they cut it. Right, so you're in your parents' closet and you're running a podcast.
