Starting point is 00:00:00 The Lonely Island and Seth Myers podcast show. Can I jump in and start talking to you guys? Fuck yeah. Let's start, Seth. Seth, let us begin. Seth, let's do it. Seth, kick it off. Seth, hit us in the face.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Oh, well, why you start with hit us in the face, obviously replacing the now famous term, hit us in the titus, I got a lot of grief from our listeners for saying that a titmouse was a mammal. It's a bird. Oh, is it really? Yeah, tit mice.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Is it? I guess it both, right? Right. Still, the plural works the same way. Well, you know what I like to say, Seth, to me, it'll always be offensive. Interesting. Yeah. Do you think I'd get kicked off social media by the federal government if I said hit
Starting point is 00:00:47 ice in the titmice? Only one way to find out. Just throw it off on social and see what happens? That was our version of social, yeah. It's a weird one because, like, I think it would be hard. It's, like, kind of hard to be mad about it. It's a cute little bird. It's a cute.
Starting point is 00:01:01 It's a cute. Tufted titmouse. Yoram say that 10 times fast. I would never. I'm personally offended the moment you say it. Oh, Keeve, say it 10 times fast. No problem. Tufted titmouse.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Tufted titmouse. Toughed titmouse. Faster. Fastertid titmouse. Toughed titmouse. Tufted titmouse. You always did have the best verbal dexterity. Tufted titmouse.
Starting point is 00:01:22 Red leather, yellow. By the way, that was a real Greg stink reaction, Yoram, when he said, say it, 10 times fast. You're like, oh, I could. Oh, I couldn't possibly. I'll do that. I'm busy, busy offender.
Starting point is 00:01:35 A lot of people, Keev, said they've now listened to the podcast, assuming you're lying on a couch completely out of energy, like a guy who just shopped at Dan Flashes. That's how I would love to do it. Like, I'm being psychoanalyzed just completely horizontal. But he looks cool as shit. And you're super hungry, but you spend all your food on new shirts. On my per diem.
Starting point is 00:01:57 On my per diem on my skater dad clothes. Oh, my skater dad close. Yep. So Yoram and I recorded a very special episode. We did. That's going to air Thanksgiving week. But we talked about a few things because we recorded that before this, which is going to air first. So the timeline's all fucked up.
Starting point is 00:02:13 But there's just a couple things we have to bring up here as well. Andy, you noticed, thanks to John Hamm, but you would have noticed anyway. So we've said that the New York Times is sending us messages. Yeah. My name was in a New York Times spelling me. Yeah. No, I'm sorry, New York Times crosswords. Yeah, very cool.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Very cool. It was a rebus too. Rebus. A solo rebus. I mean, if you know, you know. And then... Wait, I don't even know what that means. What's a rebus?
Starting point is 00:02:37 Oh, Yorm. Just for the people that are dumb on our pod. Again, I really like, if you know, you know. And it's like, oh, I don't know. Hold on, hold on. Just for our slowest buffalo out there. Oh, my God. What is a rebus?
Starting point is 00:02:50 That'd be the best. Yorm, you should dub yourself over the clip song. If you know, you know, you know. But what are you talking about? I don't know. I don't know. Guys, hold on. Sorry to bust the flow.
Starting point is 00:03:01 Can we go back to verse one? Because I didn't understand any of that. I completely agree. But just for posterity, what is, what do you know? Definitely. You're not going to tell us what it is? Fucking cheeses uproletes is when you fill more than one letter in a one box. Oh, gotcha.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Thank you. Okay. Great. And Seth, you were the clue. So you could almost say, I'm Rebus. Not quite though You couldn't But you almost could
Starting point is 00:03:30 That was a real That was a real bucket of ice water From Keeve there I'm not quite really That's why he's my guy He left the door open For something Keeves
Starting point is 00:03:41 Keeves Ice Bucket Challenge Is tell a joke That he will actually respond to And not immediately squelch Yeah, it's improv It's it's no don't No don't By the way
Starting point is 00:03:53 I'm just gonna come clean to say I was bending over backwards trying to figure out a way to say I'm Rebus and Andy's was 10x better than what I was going to say. Thank you Cephley. Some people appreciate me around here. A lot of requests to do a special next time you guys are busy do a special Spider League episode of the pod. Oh my God. Oh, just bring them on? Just get the main
Starting point is 00:04:11 guys. I actually have personal news on that front. Wow. Because me and Keeve had a fun hang with Tim and Zach the other night and I was saying that I watched them on your show and I felt like as I was watching it that I was kind of jealous and that I wanted to be in spider club even though i knew it was BS also you're calling a spider club and not spider league that's gonna be huge yeah dead giveaway so yeah that already sort of had me not on the back foot but then they were like dude i don't know maybe you should and then last night at the house
Starting point is 00:04:39 me and my kids saw a big ass spider walking by and they were like oh yeah there's a spider and i was like go go run away and then i took out my phone zoomed in and took a picture and sent it to them and they sent me back the type of spider it was uh-huh uh and then i I said, I squished it because the kids were scared. Uh-huh. And one of them gave me a thumbs up. The other gave me a thumbs down. And then I said, oh, mixed reaction.
Starting point is 00:05:02 And then Zach said, Tim paid you the respect of not condescending. Wait, so they let the spiders live at Spider League. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to get into Spider-League is what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, spider killers don't get in there. No. Wait, do you remember what kind of spider it was then? Well, I can show it to you, which people won't be able to see.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Oh, that looks dangerous. I'm glad you killed that. That's a real thing. Is that a wolf? Is that a wolf spider? They told me they thought it was a mouse spider. That's what Zach pulled. Titt Mouser or Tit?
Starting point is 00:05:30 He put it into the app and it identified it as mouse spider. That seems wrong to me. That looks grayer to me. I mean, the best thing we find out that the two of them are just running a scam where every time there's a spider, they just build a page. Make up a fake spider name? Just to fuck with Brooks? Could be.
Starting point is 00:05:48 That would be the best way to do this. What's weird is they kept saying they're getting so rich from it. And I was like, how? And they wouldn't tell us. They're like, don't worry about it. We're making so much money. They're getting paid. Oh, the other thing, in the same Newer Times Crossword,
Starting point is 00:06:02 it said this brand had their fans make their Super Bowl ad, and it was Doritos. Oh, and I guess they're right away, right, Seth? Remember you when you said? By the way, I'm very happy that you're about to hear. I teed up Yorma for this, and he guessed, literally, I will say, it was very funny. He kept guessing the sponsors of this podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:20 He's like, Viori. Oh, I know it. Don't worry, Airbnb. I've got it, Seth. And I'm like, being real slow. I'm like, oh, Super Bowl ad. Super Bowl. Fans made it.
Starting point is 00:06:32 So it is Airbnb. He's like term life insurance. I mentioned I was listening to that geese album a lot. And there was a real disappointment, knowing that if Andy would have been there, there was a chance. He would have said, when you listen to it too much, does your family say not a gunk? Yeah, we dropped the ball there, Seth. Yeah, we did. I mean, to have geese, like, just right on the thing.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Well, yeah, it was too obvious because we've had so much goose content that we just let it keep going. I like to give something for the fans to pick up on, right? And then outside of the pod, we, you know, we conferred, and Seth now knows I'm a major geese head, too, but I'm also maybe even more into that solo dolo, Cameron Winter Records, so, you know, to each of their own.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Did you listen to the solo one, Seth? Not yet, no, but I really appreciate the suggestion. Oh, cool. I guess I'll just go fucking fuck myself and die then. He's a busy guy. You might as well go do that because guess what? I'm about to come at you, my friend. I have suffered through.
Starting point is 00:07:31 So many of these episodes where you're like, I can't believe you cut me from Update. And then a bunch of people rushed to my defense and said, hold up. They cut you from Pop Star? The one chance. That was after. The one time they had a chance to put you in.
Starting point is 00:07:47 They cut you right out. Why did we cut you? Because of Update. That's why you kept it. saying the whole thing was a revenge point the minute you were in the minute he was in an edit he was just like get that fucker out of here i remember fighting for your for your thing says it was a good i remember fighting for yours i now i want to i want to stop the bit to say it was a good cut but i disagree i can tell you what it is but it one of the reasons i mean a lot of the reasons was
Starting point is 00:08:11 we rearranged everything so even the video it was coming after moved around so much no i remember exactly what it was it was coner for real is on seth's show set as himself and he's talking about his song that he keeps saying sexual freedom for all at the end of. Equal rights at the end, which he does in the movie. And Seth as himself is like, and when you wrote it, did you know that that was the slogan for the man-boy
Starting point is 00:08:33 love association? And I'm like, you know, I didn't, and it just makes me so sad that no one told me that before I put this or something like that. You think he's going to say it's so sad that that happens and that that exists, but instead it's about that no one gave him the heads up.
Starting point is 00:08:49 And no one warned you. Yeah. is a very good joke, but I think honestly the problem is that people don't know what Nambla is, because it's not really around anymore, as far as I know. Because everybody got too woke, as you always say.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Everyone got too woke. Seth, Desert Island, Mensa or Nambla. Wait, who else joins me on it? Yeah, yeah. Desert Island. Desert Island. We've been talking about what do we talk about when we ran out of digital shorts.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Someone said we should just basically, we've built enough lore that we can just do podcasts about this podcast. And they even wrote out what it would sound like, which is, what's up, breakfast defectors? Time to jave it up with the four shock jocks directly from foggy Londontown. You don't even know how many palms
Starting point is 00:09:34 we had degrees to get us here, but we'll stop at nothing to chase them clicks. By the way, Andy, how did you do on the bee? Oh, only a tetrafecta queen bee, quibby exclusive with no sauce, not a gong. But how did you do, quads? Hit us in the tinnus, but don't miss us or you'll meet us at your house.
Starting point is 00:09:46 That last part didn't rhyme. Your arm, thorns. I'm so worried that. Chat GPT wrote that. I don't think we resonate enough to be chat GPT. I'm starting to think these episodes could be a lot shorter. Wait, Seth, you're telling me that chat GPT
Starting point is 00:10:01 doesn't scrub the pod for info? I don't think the pause. I have checked our data feed. We are unscrubbed. Oh, no. It's the one thing it doesn't check. It was, yeah. Oh, they got it. Somebody, who's got Sam Albans number? Somebody's got to have it. Let's get them.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Hey, scrub the pod, bud. Lots of great stuff Scrabbit A weird incoming request For a scrub Scrub it The first one in history No this is the only one
Starting point is 00:10:29 What, with chopped level You can't scrub us Give us a scrub We're not gonna sue you Don't worry Just scrub it Busy working on singularity Nothing you do
Starting point is 00:10:37 Is useful to others That's our chat GBT talks right This is not applicable All right It's a Jude Law show guys And man Oh man Jude Laws
Starting point is 00:10:47 A Charmer Two things that got cut from the show that I think about anything that made the show that we'll get to but first let's talk about boombox boom box here's the part of the show it was playing the beginning of song then you know how we always like we all imagined the song but now I feel like it might be better if you just leave the dead air
Starting point is 00:11:08 we're all used to listening wait you thought that's what was gonna happen yeah I was waiting for to start playing I thought you were placed to boombox play click I thought this was a professional fucking thing. I said it was all of us just going slack job.
Starting point is 00:11:24 It sounded like Seth was throwing to a clip. I thought you guys were so dead-eyed I thought you had frozen. I thought you were throwing to a clip, Seth, you do it all day for a living. I was like, here it comes. I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:11:37 We're all sleepy boys. God damn it. I thought every time I try to start a clip, you guys were always like, whoa, whoa, whoa, shouldn't we talk about our inspiration? Well, we should. I literally started singing for you.
Starting point is 00:11:51 This is the part where we talk about boombox. Oh, yeah, there you go. Where to begin? I mean, I think maybe we skipped it when we talked about and credit about it because we knew we would do an episode about it, but this was another one that started when I was in the studio listening to beats, vibing to beats. And I thought of that premise to this beat.
Starting point is 00:12:13 This is another Drew Campbell beat. Oh, I forgot it was Drew. but of course it is. Yeah, similar. That's why it feels like a mother-lover-y kind of thing, but predating it. And I don't remember if it was one or both of you guys, but I remember being like,
Starting point is 00:12:27 this is my idea for it. It's like, you know, how in the 80s it was like a boombox was the cure for everything. I think all three of us worked on this. Yeah, we were all in. Great. And we're in that Encino house. We're just living it up.
Starting point is 00:12:41 In the shittiest room in the house. Yep. Just hot as balls. Making tunes. Now, what I don't remember, Andy, is did Julian, like, we've talked about how he came and would be playing tennis and stuff. Was that all after he recorded and saw the house? Did he come for the first time, or did he come?
Starting point is 00:12:59 Julian Casablanca's from the Strokes. Yes. Yes, sorry. Did he come to the house for the first time beforehand just as a friend? And then we roped him into a song? No. Come for the song. First time was for the song.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Got it. And we were friendly because they had been on, obviously, and we were big fans. We were psyched to me. And then we were like, I wonder if you would do one. because he's always so friendly and we were like this would be a perfect one for him if he was into it
Starting point is 00:13:23 but we were like they're so like at that time no one knew anything about the strokes they were this like mysterious cool sexy existing thing still are
Starting point is 00:13:32 still are well I mean we know a little more now sure sure less mysterious was there even fucking sex here than we could have possibly imagined uh rhythm section so goddamn tight
Starting point is 00:13:44 oh it's so fucking tight but he was into it And we did the thing we always did. A big fan, not to sound like Lauren Michaels, loves the show. I mean, a big SNL fan, Julian. Julian, yeah. And, you know, they're New York boys. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:58 They had probably played SNL twice. Do you think it was their second time when we were there or even third time? Like, was it our first? Because they definitely played when we were there. That's when we got to meet him. We weren't there for their first. And then they had already come back twice, I think, while we were there. So they were an SNL fave.
Starting point is 00:14:15 But we didn't know that he was super into. comedy until we met them. Correct. I knew he loved the Horatio Christmas song, which I think they covered, right? Yes, he did eventually do a version of, yes. He did do it. It's a great version of that song.
Starting point is 00:14:27 But Seth, what can I tell you? You know, factoid. Originally recorded with my temp singing for the chorus, and when Julian got the song, he was like, I love this, but I want to change the key. And we were like, what? What is that?
Starting point is 00:14:43 Was that the first time? That was the first time that we did that, right? Yes. I remember being like, oh. Well, beyond the key, he wanted to change the melody. Well, both. Yeah, which was more involved than most people get, which was awesome. Do you remember the original melody?
Starting point is 00:14:56 It's gone from my brain. It's been erased from our hard drives and our brains, our brain hard drives. I don't totally remember it. He made it better, basically. As soon as he started doing it, we were like, oh, I see, that's what makes his songs, his songs. Like, he has his own magic. And as soon as he started to do it, when he changed it, I remember being a little bit bummed because the verse parts, I thought, sounded a little more minor key or something.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Like, it sounded a little less poppy at first. Or was it low energy? I felt like it was like a slightly slowed it down or something. I can't remember. But, like, within seconds of him starting to put his part on it, I was like, oh, this is about to be so much better as a song. And it did turn out to be that. And it turned out, I think, because of the stuff he did and how he sounds singing on it,
Starting point is 00:15:42 musically, one of my favorite things we've done. He also played guitar. He did. Do you remember? Yeah. So he had to talk to Drew on the phone, and they started speaking music, which none of us knew, like literally going, okay, and then you were going to a G-sharp where you go to a G-flat or whatever, like literally spelled out to him the notes he wanted, the new melody to go.
Starting point is 00:16:01 Yes. And then he got out his guitar and did those little, like the strokes signature style guitar in tons of different layers of it on top of it. So those courses truly bloomed in the cane. How did we record that part just on our microphone? I don't remember. I think he just plugged a guitar straight into our little shi-ass.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Oh, into the little shitty. That little end box just right into it. Yes, he jacked right in. I remember. He was like Neo. He jacked in. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:26 He said that I thought about Neo. Oh, we are so insane. I thought about something else that I don't want to talk about. Don't own up to it. Oh, man. He jacked in so clean. It's so relatable.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Four times. Strokes, been on the show four times. At that point, or total? Uh, 2002, 2006, 2011, 2020. They weren't the musical guest this show. Am I correct? Correct.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Yeah, so this was just because it was been on the album. I don't remember who was, but I bet they were absolute trash. All right, now let's check. It was Pearl Jam, you son of a bitch. No, I love them. I take it back. I was wrong. Took a big swing, and the swing came right back at you.
Starting point is 00:17:03 I regretted it immediately. Oh, dang. Usually they have such trash bands on us. I love you, Eddie. I'm so fucking sorry, man. I didn't know it was you guys. Wait, I might have just, I might, guys, the one place I hadn't searched was my email. We're looking for the boombox demo with Andy singing?
Starting point is 00:17:21 Yeah. Fuck. No. Oh, so close. But I will say there's a lot of the word boombox in Hot Rod emails. Pushes play on a huge boombox, a dinky beat plays. Yeah, was that Richardson at the pool? Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Dinky, yeah, that's exactly what happened in that scene. Well, speaking, and not dinky beats. Drew Campbell's beat for Boombox was excellent. Oh, really nice, your own. Thanks, transition back. Jude Law had a very famous first musical guest. Does anybody remember who, this is the second time he hosted, who the musical guest was the first time, Jude Law? Pearl Jam, also.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Ashley Simpson. Oh, he had a memorable episode. He had a memorable episode. I remember Jude Law and will not surprise anybody, I think, was very endearing and sweet with her at Good Night's, because he sort of gave her a big old hug, like, ah, live TV, you know. It was like, ah, who could stay mad? And everyone was like, ah, we're not going to forget this ever. What jerks. Support for the Lonely Out and Seth Myers' podcast comes from Airbnb.
Starting point is 00:18:24 You know, I'm about to take a trip with my parents, and my boys. We're going to go to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We're very excited because it's really nice to be in somebody's home where their personal touches are part of the weekend you're going to stay there. And then me and the boys got thinking, we got plenty personal touches at our house as well. If people, for example, loved the animated show, the octanauts, I'd highly recommend you spend a weekend in our apartment. Because, hey, if we're going to make memories while traveling, why not let someone make their own memories in our home?
Starting point is 00:18:54 Think about it. If you host your home on Airbnb while you're traveling, it's a great way to offset some of the costs of your own trip. Andy would like you to stay with him, but not via Airbnb. He just loves Quaid Army so much, just a little rat-a-tat-tat on the door. And you're more than welcome to stay. That's not binding, what I just said. The extra income you make can be put towards an upcoming trip, a splurge, you benign home improvement projects, et cetera. And if you've got a lot of trips ahead of you, host it's a pretty cool and unique way
Starting point is 00:19:19 to make some money back, your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at Airbnb.com slash host. Guys, there are so many stressors in this world today. About to be more. Holidays are coming up, travel, the stress that it causes on our system. And that's why support for this podcast comes from AG1.
Starting point is 00:19:42 AG1 is a daily foundational nutrition formula designed to support energy, immune, and defense, and gut health, all sorts of good things. I've been actually taking AG1 for, it's been at least a month now, and I feel great. This is not, I feel great about my pelvis. My pelvis is still very painful and my back is painful, but I don't think that has anything to do with AG1. Age1 has made me feel energetic without the way that coffee causes you to crash. and it's been great. I actually had a friend of mine, I'm not going to name names, Will Forte,
Starting point is 00:20:16 come over to my house and I actually steal packets from me. And he kept saying, can I have these? And I was like, well, I, okay, sure. I'm not going to say no, but I am in a wheelchair right now. It seems like a weird thing to steal a guy's nutrition supplements.
Starting point is 00:20:29 But, you know, that's, again, some of the stress I'm talking about. Your friends can stress you out. Also, darker, shorter days may throw off your rhythm. What better way than taking a superfood that has B vitamins, that support that energy to feel better and prebiotics probiotics and enzymes help support regularity and gut resilience as well all things you need so head on down to drinkag1.com

Canada can be a global leader in reducing the harm caused by smoking, but it requires actionable steps. Now is the time to modernize Canadian laws so that adult smokers have information and access to better alternatives. By doing so, we can create lasting change.
Starting point is 00:21:34 If you don't smoke, don't start. If you smoke, quit. If you don't quit, change. unsmoked.ca. With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. I feel like it wrote pretty easy, and we were giggling when we were writing it and liking the concept.
Starting point is 00:22:05 And, you know, it's our classic taking a trope and expanding on it and making it into something new. and it really took off when Julian showed up. I can't really stress that enough. I think you're going to say it took off when the Boil Goose thing came happen. I mean. And it's hard, we can't undersell what level of Strokes fans we were.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Like, you and you aren't before me, but then I joined in way before we got SNL. Like in 2002, when... When is the sick came out? Yeah, where it was just the album getting played over and over and over and over. Yep. So just even being in the room
Starting point is 00:22:38 when he came to our house and starts singing, and it's him. And, you know, we had gone to their concerts. And his voice was coming out. We were like, holy shit. It's him singing. Yeah. On that album, are there any ones that aren't sort of singles?
Starting point is 00:22:52 I feel like it's almost all singles. Maybe there's one. It's nuts. Yeah. You're talking about Incredibad? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That too. Hit after hit.
Starting point is 00:23:00 I'm pretty sure old saloon was a single. And Jasmine? For a single. Saxman, Seth. Now who's fucking up. Oh, it's like you don't even like us. Fighter Club's worse. it's Spider League
Starting point is 00:23:13 You know what Fuck you I'm so sorry Seth I'm sorry Eddie Vedder Fuck I'm sorry dude man Let's go back to that moment We were thinking the same thing about Neo
Starting point is 00:23:22 I'm so goddamn sleepy It's 430 It's 432 Pacific time In the afternoon FYI for a listener Do you remember Do you remember at the after party Eddie Vedder came and sat at our table
Starting point is 00:23:34 And it was a thrill I do remember that Keith I remember Vetter coming and sitting with us and us being geeked as hell We were just geeked. He just chose our table and just came to hang. And we were not with... I don't think Julian was at the show, was he?
Starting point is 00:23:46 Uh-uh. No, Julian wasn't even there. He was like, hello boys? We were like, fuck yeah, man. Yeah, one of the table that got Vettered. Vettered was a great vibe. Oh, my God, he was the best. Yeah, he had a bottle, his bottle of red wine, and Liz, my wife was the massive, like, in high
Starting point is 00:24:01 school had his picture on the wall, and she went fully mute, could not strike up a conversation. Like, then she knew the lore that he was like... yoram at the beginning of every podcast recording couldn't get her mic to work if you know what I mean she keeps Liz really has a type then yeah me and Vetter same because we get mistaken for each other
Starting point is 00:24:21 a lot yeah almost identical there was a Pearl Jam cameo in a sketch in this show I don't know why I keep asking you guys quiz trivia questions like you know anything about the show you worked on we were very busy on boombox this week continue you were very busy on do you remember there was a really funny Bobby Moynihan
Starting point is 00:24:37 scene that played off that famous Twilight Zone episode where like a little Gremlin's on the wing. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And it was a really great sketch. And at one point Jude Law looks out and the Gremlin's there with all of Pearl Jim. And they're all just like standing
Starting point is 00:24:50 on the wing with him. And then the best was like, he sees him and he's like, oh. And then they all do the same move that the gremlin had done the whole thing, like in unison. And it's great. Seth, are you sure was Twilight Zone? And it's not that fucking movie from the 80s? It was Twilight League? Fuck. He found a way to get you.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Obviously, we all know it was Twilight Zone. zone, okay? I just don't get why they're getting rich from it. It's just spiders and photos. How are they printing money? But they don't want to share. Wait, really quick, before we move on, Seth, last week's SNL, what did you dislike the most?
Starting point is 00:25:28 I will say that this is it was like the SNL. I mean, I started September 2001. That album was out? Because they came January 02. Probably. That was like the, oh my gosh. I live in New York. Everybody I know is listening to this album.
Starting point is 00:25:41 This album is the best thing ever. Yeah, every after party and stuff. I can only imagine. Yep. It's really well documented and Meet Me in the Bathroom. Meet Me in the Bathroom by Lizzie Goodman. A little trivia. The mixer guy named Brian Spurber,
Starting point is 00:25:54 who mixed our entire incredible album, did such a good job on this song that Julian was like, Who Mixed This and hired him and he did Julian's really, really, really good solo album. Yeah. And it's a great album. And Sperber,
Starting point is 00:26:09 Never thanked us. Yeah. Never thanked us. What the fuck. Yeah, what the fuck? What a fucking tur. What the fuck, Spurba? What a weird dude.
Starting point is 00:26:17 Hey, Spurber. How he knew he was a nasty. Hey, Spurba, why you change, man? That's not the Spurber I know. The spurber I know was gracious. Spurba change. Oh my God. It's so late.
Starting point is 00:26:36 It's so late. It's so late. It's 4.30 in the West cars. I've never been on something this late This is crazy All right Do you keep you want to take the Honors of playing this thing
Starting point is 00:26:47 Yeah the helm Take the digital helm Yeah I do I just want to get through this So we can get to Mondo butts Can we just speed this up I knew that was like you You've never publicly spoken about boombox
Starting point is 00:26:59 Seth, it's one of our good ones Yeah it's a it's a criteria And you should never publicly speak about Mondo butts Which is why I want to get to it Oh man we're going to talk about it so much Have we already talked about it once or no? It feels like we have, or maybe I think about it often because Mondo turns up in the old spelling bee a lot.
Starting point is 00:27:15 It sure does. And every time I'm all, oh, what could have been? Do you think it's a Mondo Butts reference from dress? They were at dress and saw... I mean, fucking clearly. Dude, the way they're going, the amount of references they have? Well, it did go to dress twice. Is this the second time?
Starting point is 00:27:29 Me not know. Yoram, do you know? Uh, yes, it was. So here's some other things with Boombox. One, because we'll have cut it all out. I just want credit. I've spent a half hour before this going through every hard drive
Starting point is 00:27:40 trying to find the version with Andy singing, and I couldn't. The only one who does research, the only fucking person. Thank you. Thank you, Keith. Good job. Number two, everybody that's a fan of the album
Starting point is 00:27:51 might notice that there's an extra verse. Yes. And there's not the verse in the video. We did. Yeah, we're getting to it, Maciba. We did shoot that verse. And we edited it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:00 And I believe it was at dress. It was a dress. The video's not progressing fast enough that we need to get to the old folks home. and we cut it. So when Kevin Miller does join the pod, guys, stay tuned. You won't want to miss this.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Because when he joins, he's going to go dig up dress and we will play the video and include the video, that little chunk. Of the cut verse, the famous... The famous lost verse.
Starting point is 00:28:26 And now I have not seen that since we did it either, and it probably stinks. The Jimmy Hoffa's body of verses cut from S&L shorts. The good news, Keith, it can't be worse than Mondo Butts.
Starting point is 00:28:39 So it was not the worst thing cut from... Jesus, age Christ. We chose to cut it, Seth. We have integrity. When Mondo butts got cut, did you think you'd gotten a raw deal? I'm sure I was so mad. All right, here we go.
Starting point is 00:28:56 Boombox. Oh, wait. Should we play it with laughs? We should play with laughs. Sorry. Yeah. And I do just later on when we're playing Mondo Butts, there's not an option to play it with laughs.
Starting point is 00:29:03 So don't ask. Wait. Wait, it wasn't Wait, wait, so it was at dress But there's no laughs And you can't Yeah, don't be like Play the version with laughs
Starting point is 00:29:14 Like there was a full studio audience there We can't do it We can't make But if he can access the dress rehearsal From the server completely then Right? No, his point is that There was a full studio audience
Starting point is 00:29:24 Watching Mondobuts There were no laughs And there's no way To put laughs in there Because they didn't give them to him Oh, I see He was being Funny
Starting point is 00:29:33 Yeah, I was I could tell that had gone over your heads. Well, I was looking at my phone. He was being cruel, is what he was being. But here's what I'll say to you, Seth. I fucking can't wait to watch it because I bet you there's a lot of laughs. There's some laughs.
Starting point is 00:29:48 By the way, I want you to know, Andy, it was one of those ones. And again, I love how much we're talking about something we're going to get to. I laugh so much harder than I thought I would watch again. Well, great. Look at what's the most replayed parts of this. So first off, it's the classic shot from the cover of you guys holding a fingerless gloves. People want to screen cap that. But then it's old people tongue kissing.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Oh. There's those claps. They love it. They already love it. Oh. Should I do that over it? I'm doing the jizz in my pants thing on that thing. Imagine in your mind a posh country club.
Starting point is 00:30:21 Okay, could we stop? Yeah. I mean, first off, your sunglasses. Sunglasses have like rotating lights built into them. That's not. Yeah, it has the Knight Rider lights. So fucking dope. Wait, are they going?
Starting point is 00:30:35 Yeah, they're going. Oh, yeah, they're going, my favorite thing ever. It's like kit talking on your face. You know, before everyone had ringlights at home, which is a modern part of humanity since, you know, everyone became an influencer and whatever, they were only seen in music videos. Because movies, of course, can't, you can't see lighting in a movie or else you're taken out of the illusion. But music videos are all, you know, lights and being cool. And so you would see ring lights in the reflections in glasses, and it was a cool music video thing. Are you wearing a wig, Andy?
Starting point is 00:31:04 Is that a wig? Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's got lines in the side. It's a different color. Yeah. It's fucking great. It's one of my favorites that you ever had.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Me too. Terminator jacket. Yorm fucking crushes it without fast. He knows it's a wig. Like, all it needs to be is like four ways that it's totally different from your hair. And he knows. The reason that I... This guy thinks he's on an episode of you a burnt.
Starting point is 00:31:26 The reason that I'm bulk. Yeah, you're really taking it to us. You guys are in the burn zone tonight. Yorm, when we watched Ross Trent, Yorm was like, that was got to be a wig. Here's the thing, Seth, it looks kind of like my hair. So in my mind, I'm like, wait a minute. I'm not looking at a mirror.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Yeah, did you take my hair? This whole look is kind of a John Connor, future cyberpunk John Connor. Is that correct to say? Definitely. Yeah, I think that's fair. Yeah. And I also will say my dream for this was to have a giant wall of speakers, and they came through so correct.
Starting point is 00:31:58 And it looks awesome. Love it. And we were doing the jizz in my pants in edit little bass thump. Yep, which I love. And you also did a little zippy speed up and losing frames on my head going up at the top, just giving it all that extra little snap, a lot of keeves off. Let's see that. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Oh, yes. You're like a robot. They're like depression era of poor. They're like from the dust bowl. Yeah, that's right. Like a little bit dust bowl, a little bit of Christmas carol. They're not good. They're not doing well.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Oh, there's that yummy. Look how good. That's a really good goose. That looks so depressing. All they eat is sourcrout and boiled goose. Look at that. We talked about your goose motif. Did we overlook this one?
Starting point is 00:32:47 No, no, it was prominent in that conversation. Nice desat on that shot, too, Keeve. Hey, nice desat, Keith. Did this get really took that color out, made a hell of depressing. And on purpose, as opposed to Sergio, which was all fucked up. That was just no color correction. It was just zero thought. Or was it intentional?
Starting point is 00:33:07 It doesn't matter. If it looks the same, it's about intention. Was it actual filmmaking? What's on the floor? Is it a bunch of confetti? Glitter. Glitter, glitter, glitter. It is bland, sourcrap and boiled goose. There's no way these people will ever cut loose.
Starting point is 00:33:24 But then I'll walk in the room, hold my boom box high. And what happened next will blow your mind. That fucking lady's killing it. And now you're doing your say-anything. Yeah. Say-any-thing coat. Yeah. It all rolled up.
Starting point is 00:33:45 And it's like a shiny. A little more metal. Yeah, exactly. I'm not going to shy away from it. There's a little bit of Rufus from Bill and Ted's happening. For sure. Yeah. It looks a little bit like a coat that was in Space Olympics too.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Yeah. No, this is very different. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This guy is like a time traveling. I mean, same producer made the beat, though. I love the atmosphere and the thing. It's a night. We're really doing it here
Starting point is 00:34:08 because we knew it was something we really believed in and Julian was coming. We wanted to do right by him and the song. This place wasn't a set, by the way. This was that awesome actual club that was like on the East River. Do you remember that place?
Starting point is 00:34:21 How great. I remember you Keeve at one point saying that in music videos you liked when, if it was narrative, that you liked narrative stuff going to slow-mo always. I mean, that became our signature move until we decided it was overdone.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Yeah, yeah. Where, like, anything where there's not, someone saying the words wasn't slow, and anything they were saying the words is not. But then in this one, Julian's also in slow, even when he's singing. Right. We did the age-old trick that we will put here
Starting point is 00:34:49 because it's not a secret, which is when you do certain music videos, it's harder in rap because people can't, you know, rap that fast, but you put the music into higher speed. So when you're on set, it sounds a little like Alvin and the Chimmonks, which we've brought. out of before.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Three albums. Hashtag three albums. And you speed it up and then you also film at that same speed. And so when you play back in slow-mo, it plays back actually at real time and everything looks a little magical. We've even figured that out for Snapchats, I remember before, like where we would actually figure out what Snapchat was shooting at or make videos on our iPhones. And then you'd be like, for social media, you're like, whoa, how'd they do that on a Snapchat?
Starting point is 00:35:28 Oh, right. They did where they would slow down but sync it up. Yeah. Yeah. But it's a classic of the genre of music videos when you think things look a little magical. So Julian's choruses are all done that way. Yep. And I remember on set it being,
Starting point is 00:35:41 everybody in the background dancing. Yes. Yeah, dude. And everyone in the background dancing like, dude. Exactly. And it was very funny to look at in real time. Do we have a fan on his hair?
Starting point is 00:35:52 I would assume we do so you really notice, but let's see. Well, I hope we had a professional hairstylist. Yeah. He's such a fucking cool-looking dude. We didn't want to mess up his hair. That's smart. And you walked up to him, Yorm, and just pointed his head and said, Daff a Whig.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Oh, immediately. He walked through the whole restaurant. Whig, wig, wig, wig, wig, you're fake, you're fake. Impossible, impossible. Die job, die job. Here we go. Oh, yeah. It was a bunch of all white people dancing.
Starting point is 00:36:25 A big apple. Where people. That fucking jackets. That's my fucking shit. That's my favorite. Jack and I ever had in anything. This is, for the people listening in their car, it's the one with, like, fur-lined leather with, like, red.
Starting point is 00:36:37 Did they put those, like, red things around your arms? Yeah, I think I requested them. Yeah, just extra stuff. It's so good. And then a chain, a big chain, kind of shoulder baggy type strap. I should have just dressed like this normally. What was I doing? How was I taking it so seriously, you know?
Starting point is 00:36:53 And you're still in the wig in this one. Oh, my God. Hell, yeah. No, this is when he was allowed to cut his hair normal. Lauren said, all right, that looked good. Yeah. Let's keep it for the show. For the second verse, we just changed it.
Starting point is 00:37:03 I will say, Yorm, speaking of real hair versus fake, I had lines in junior high, did this again because I thought it was funny, and then by the time we did Pop Star, I enjoyed how I looked in Boobox so much that I was like, I should do it for real and did. I keep debating whether I should do it.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Do it now? Yeah, yeah. Here's the thing. I go to these Dominican barbers around the corner, and like all of the pictures on the wall, just get me inspired. I'm like, fuck, I should do that.
Starting point is 00:37:32 It's granted it's pictures of like 14-year-olds. You're bed-ridden. Cut your hair however you want, man. Exactly, Keeve. Yeah. Freak flat fly. However you said that.
Starting point is 00:37:41 Okay, here we go. Spirits go down while profits expand. The cops or the dealers, who's got the juice. Just look at your mouth there. We passed maybe my favorite line of the song,
Starting point is 00:37:55 which is the big apple where people never dance. Yep. She was like this untrustworthy narrator. Yeah. Just like just blowing right by a huge. So many bummers. Every part of that's a bummer.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Who's got the juice also is just so whack. He has to set up the foundation for his story. Otherwise it's not going to work. Big apple where people never dance. Spirits go down while profits expand. The cops or the dealers who's got the juice. The street vendors peddling their boil. That guy's killing it.
Starting point is 00:38:33 The guy's selling boiled goose. I'd never really looked at him. Yeah, he's pissed out. He's like, Boy, get your boy, you go, Sam. He's selling you one, and he's already screaming down on the street to sell the next one. God, it looks awful, too. Yeah, it's a real, it's a real light beige on that goose. Keeve, Keev, do you think you windowed that, and then de-sad of the goose?
Starting point is 00:38:52 I mean, it is boiled. Dude, this video looks so good. I think we were professionally color-corrected. Keeve, did you Sergio the goose? Did you say Joe the Ghost, be honest. But do you think we color-corrected this, Yom? I'm not sure. That shot looks pretty good, but I don't think that that would be impossible for it.
Starting point is 00:39:08 No, we could vignette. I don't know, though, because we shot it at S&L that week. I don't think we were that deep into doing D.I. I think we color-corrected that. At a certain point, we got, like, I just had sex and stuff was that week, and I remember finishing stamp all night, you know, with you guys, Friday night, and running to Company 3 at Saturday morning. Oh, maybe you did then.
Starting point is 00:39:29 So we did start doing that, but I don't know if we did it here. I don't know about it on this one. But that shot does look like maybe. Yeah, this might have been us. It's not obvious to me. Also, we're from the Bay. Okay, since Andy's going back, Andy mentioned something that I really love, which is the song Makiba by A.C. alone, and it's hard for us not to occasionally say,
Starting point is 00:39:52 I love making love to my Maciba to Akiva. Okay, keep going, Keith. That is the chorus of it. But then Jonah calls me Mamiba, and I don't know, I don't know if that's an A-C-Alone. That's something else, yeah. That's a deeper, that's an A-C-Alone B-side. Oh, I don't think that's right. Mamiba.
Starting point is 00:40:07 They'll never get along till I bust out my boo-box and play this song. The music watched away all they behave, and society's got it advancing. Oh, that's me. The demographic was represented. It was a rainbow coalition of death. He's bad. God damn. Goodseller's back.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Yeah. Yeah, he's got two of them in his hands, and he's just feeling it. He's got some fingerless gloves, too. Just some real limp geese. We really put us in as criminals in a lot of these. Like, this is definitely not the only time I've been a criminal in one. Typecasting, I'm right? And there's definitely times where you've been the criminal.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Yeah. Wait, look at your face here, Andy. So, again, people at home, Andy is holding the boombox looking, like, point blank at a businessman, just looking, staring at him like he fucking hates his guy. Well, the business man loses it dancing. Yeah. Giving him the jams. That's really good. That's really good stuff.
Starting point is 00:41:04 Setting him free. Everyone was wearing fingerless clubs. Whose idea was the glitter? Because it looks kick-ass on the floor. Oh, and when it's falling on them? Yeah, it's awesome. It's awesome. But it's awesome for the floor, too, because I thought it was water.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Well, we knew we were going to do this slow-mo thing, so I think then we were just trying to figure out. out the shit to throw in the bag of it. Yeah, how you would know he's in slow-mo, because if he's against nothing, it just kind of gives his face kind of an interesting move. And yeah, and then we just were like, drop glitter and shine light at it. And then the ones on the floor, I think, is a happy accident that happened because we dropped a bunch of glitter. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that looks great. I interrupted the best, the second best line, first best line coming right here. Yeah, it's the best one.
Starting point is 00:41:57 Just a reminder, it's Fred wrapped in a flag of Spain. It's Fred doing the Bartman, wearing a Bartman t-shirt, but also, in my opinion, doing a very accurate Bartman. Yeah. Like, he looks like he's in the Simpsons somehow doing it. Do you want to describe what the Bartman was, Andy? Oh, everyone knows. Everyone knows the Bartman.
Starting point is 00:42:18 Google that. Our audience. Everybody does. Does anyone not know what the Bartman is? Hit us in the Titus. Look it up, guys. You always said that was your favorite thing Of the Simpsons ever
Starting point is 00:42:29 Oh yeah, Bartman became a thing Yeah, Bartman changed comedy I liked the one where Lisa was singing the blues Yeah, purist I mean, I was the age Seth Where I did love the Bartman Of course, I did too
Starting point is 00:42:43 I was like, I can't, But what, they did a song and a video And I was so fucking hyped And you grow up and you're like Yeah, I'm more like Homer and Mo that's who I relate to now You were the Bartman and now you're Mo? Yeah, now I'm Barney
Starting point is 00:42:57 The show's been kicking rats out of the bar You've grown into the most That was saddest character On the show Yeah Check back in one more grandpa You know
Starting point is 00:43:07 That's my That's my monologue Audition My monologue I audition with And I was like When I was a kid That was the Bartman Now I'm just a fucking Barney
Starting point is 00:43:17 Or a Mo All the guys Are a virgin suicide Character Yeah Oh hey Homer Why are you talking like that.
Starting point is 00:43:27 This is how I talk now. You're going to tell your grandkids, I wasn't always like this. All right now to an old folks' home with the elderly you tossed on their brittle bones. Rude. The Lord of Lisa Stealing, there's no excuse. Every day for lunch, they eat boiled goods.
Starting point is 00:43:50 All right. So, okay, okay. So how did we come to that? I kind of forgot that. I forgot that. I think he says Boiled Goose like that. I think I remember exactly how it happened, Your Honor. It was a joke.
Starting point is 00:44:02 It was you doing a joke. Clearly, that's not going to be in the song, joke, right? No, that's not what it was. It was, especially considering there's a whole other verse that was omitted here, we had hit Boiled Goose three times already. Right. And we did it here, and we all agreed, listening back, we were like, it doesn't feel like Boil Goose is like,
Starting point is 00:44:22 it felt like diminishing returns. It was too many times. Yeah. And I don't know if it was me just trying it or you guys suggesting it, but we were like, we need to try something different with it. And that was what happened. And, you know, hey, a lot of great comedy comes from boredom, boredom of yourself. And necessity. I would say me saying boiled goose like that is the joke our friend my Rudolph says to me the most of anything I've done.
Starting point is 00:44:45 I mean, it's really special. I like to say that boredom, though, is the mother of comedy, right? Hmm. All right. It does apply to the thing that we do talk about, and I talk about like, a lot of naked gun of like when a joke is a B as opposed to an A, you still let it slide a lot of the times. But when something's a C or a D or an F, that's the one you go and work on. And then that's the ones that end up being the best jokes in a thing. Like the broken ones. The dangerous
Starting point is 00:45:10 ones are the ones that are okay because you just let those pass. Yeah. But the, but this one where it sucked because it was boombox, then it becomes the best thing in the whole thing. So I guess what you're saying, Akiva, is that if someone's working with you, you welcome all kinds, the broken ones, the dreamers. Yeah, you could say that. Keep going. The once-barts, now Barney's. Return them to their Bartman face.
Starting point is 00:45:37 You get real close to Andy sometime and say, can I talk to Bartman? I know he's in there. That's what you said to Liam, right? Yeah, let me talk to your inner. I'm getting a lot of crusty. Liam, Liam, we got a C. We're dealing with the C here. I got to get to Bartman.
Starting point is 00:45:54 This is more something in post. I haven't heard Bartman's voice in a long time, Keith. A long time. All right, we're in the cafeteria, right? The old NBC cafeteria that we've shot many, many. But look how great it looks compared to... It looks great. Yeah, it doesn't look like that at all.
Starting point is 00:46:09 This is where you punched Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins. This is where... Emma Stone broke her arm. The firelight stuff, the laser cat. Lindsay Lohan was in there. I broke my arm. Yeah. We haven't even gone there yet.
Starting point is 00:46:21 Spoiler alert. Here we go. was the total disgrace Everybody started out on sex The music was way too powerful A bunch of old people Frilylein' Laugh
Starting point is 00:46:38 A boomer can change the world You gotta know your limits Your limits Oh, why did we throw in another kiss? That was worth it. We didn't need that last one. Great shots. Some gratuitous fun stuff at the end there.
Starting point is 00:47:07 We liked it. I want to use sliding on your knees is the best thing we ever did, maybe? I remember when there was a buildup, and I was like, hey, hey, hey, just go wide. Let me try this. And you're like, don't hurt yourself. Even right then I was worried about it. I'm not done with all the shots yet. And I feel like the vase that Julian smashes is probably just an extra prop that they were like,
Starting point is 00:47:28 what do you want to do with this? I'm just holding and smash it. Or I thought maybe he requested it. Am I wrong? Did he? It feels so, I wish you didn't rain. Oh, yeah. Andy, if you did that knee slide now, would both knees immediately explode?
Starting point is 00:47:42 Oh, my God. I don't think I'd even make it to the ground. It would just be you crumpling in a heap of glitter. Yeah, I'm like, all right, here I go. And then the camera would roll and then it would just be an empty frame. What happened to him? Are you coming? Are you doing it?
Starting point is 00:47:59 No, you fucking exploded. He's right off camera there. It's a pile of dust. I did it. I'm over here. Do Barney off camera, his knees just exploded. It's a good fucking Barney. Oh, hey, you hom.
Starting point is 00:48:16 I don't know. I mean, I feel like, I just want to say this is I can't believe I'm finding this late era Andy impression. I never knew it had. It's so good, I'm surprised he didn't audition. I know, it's shocking. Considering he tried, like, to get Beetlejuze on like 10 times,
Starting point is 00:48:34 it's like, you got a burn? Hey, somebody said my name. Once, I said it once. Yeah, you couldn't be there. No more, no more, no more. No more. It's my favorite. Support comes from the Wild Alaskan Company.
Starting point is 00:48:51 When was the last time you truly trusted the seafood you brought home?

Starting point is 00:50:00 Well, that supports healthy oceans in fishing communities, which you know gets me wild. Okay, we know you're wild, thank you. Nutrient rich and full of flavor.

Starting point is 00:54:21 Wait, we have voice notes. We have fucking, like, who do you got it from? I'm just going to let it speak for itself. Okay. Hey, guys. For the people at home, it's Julia. Okay, I mean, I still get references to this all the time, Boombox. I mean, probably, I feel like any post, there's, like, images of,
Starting point is 00:54:40 of the fingerless gloves. It was, I would say, very inspiring for me to see you guys, how people work together, respecting each other and playing off each other, which was kind of, honestly, unfortunately, kind of lacking in my experience and creative endeavors. You guys are kind of like a band, I feel. A great band. We are kind of like a band. It did feel like almost like a test in a way, because you,
Starting point is 00:55:10 You guys work with such big names. So I remember, before I sang on it, I changed the chords because I had this core progression. And there's major chords in there. They sound kind of maybe happier. So it's not better instrumentally. But I just remember Yorma, he was like, I don't think that's better.
Starting point is 00:55:28 And I just remember kind of like, I did say that. I just remember thinking, oh, man, I got to stay on task. And like he'll like it when I do the singing. But I did, to be fair. I don't know. Yeah, the house. was really cool you guys worked uh oh by the way shout out to maya rupert my dearest sweetest friend who listens to you guys and said if i ever do this for boombox i have to give her a shout out
Starting point is 00:55:52 what's up my i love you mya rupert right just killed mya i remember joanna was there she really liked it and i thought okay cool an ultra talented mega musician that i respected uh is loving it so that's good yeah i bet she didn't judge him what else what else oh by the way akiva congrats on naked gun it was so good okay there was an extra verse i remember also in boombox that you guys cut wisely you guys can't argue with results do you guys still have that you should almost play it maybe question for fun or not guys ahead of the gang there was like some funny jokes in the parts that were cut too yeah i don't know miss you guys you guys are the best miss you guys on SNL, too.
Starting point is 00:56:38 Keep this part. Yeah, another thing, just because it's comedy and there's, I guess, a lightness to the ambition. I mean, you guys can still be deep and powerful, but maybe because there's still like a goofiness in a sense, it doesn't ever veer into that, like, self-seriousness that I feel like musicians and other artists kind of veer into. And so that was really the best and very inspiring. And I think a lot of that energy was maybe subconsciously brought to like what I was figuring out the voids and how we operate and stuff.
Starting point is 00:57:12 Fuck, we're influential. And with, you know, I helped improve, you know, strokes thing too, at least with the three guys that I'm friends with, work with and talk with still. Sorry, Nick, just kidding. Yeah, but just working with people who respect each other is a necessity, I've discovered. You guys taught me that. Yeah, or at least to work on something that you're just. kind of happy, or that's embedded with kind of the energy of something you always feel happy about looking back on. So I feel that way about Boombox. And it's definitely the one thing
Starting point is 00:57:44 I'll be remembered for my main contribution to society. Thanks, Julian. Oh, my gosh. What a sweet, sweet man. So sweet, dude. Do you guys remember it? Like, I remember when we were recording with him, Julian would occasionally get sort of deferential to us. And I was always like, what are you talking about like you're fucking incredible but he would like you know he was such a sweet person he's a nice very humble fella who's made some of our favorite music of all time has made evidence by that note it was incredibly sweet so nice thank you julian for sending that and by the way he did it oh well Seth's gone but you can tell us you can tell us you yeah go ahead well and he knows it was on the text he did it last second we texted him a half hour before we started and he managed to do that
Starting point is 00:58:27 but i want Seth to hear it so he can know like how nice it was It's gone. It's moving forward. But I do think that it's nice to be on finally with three guys who mutually respect each other. That is nice to say that. I can't imagine how, what was going on for him to have to say that about us. We respect each other. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:49 We're very sweet. We're really sweet guys. We're three sweet cookies. Seth, you're back. Were you doing some Coke, dude? Just a little. You guys are like a band. You got a little.
Starting point is 00:58:57 You guys are kind of like a band. I've never thought about it. Seth, we asked Julian for that a half hour before we started. Did you really? That's how great he is, that he gave us that right away. That's really awesome. I asked somebody for a voice note a half an hour ago as well. Shouldn't we complete the circle here with the lost verse?
Starting point is 00:59:16 The lost verse, yeah. Yeah, please. My man, Maciba! I love how you, Yoram, was like, we just, it's so hard for us to not say that Mackeba thing, and it's like episode fucking 75, and neither of you have ever said it. They had to be brought back to this time. Yeah. I'd just like that there's still, you know, secrets in our closet.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Now, I picture, if you will, a bunch of businessmen stuffed in the board room like pigs in a pad. The ties around the necks are like a hangman's noose. In the middle of the table, there's a boiled goose. Old people smell makes you want to puke in the sink. These dudes will never dance. Yeah, that's what you think. I stride in the room all your...
Starting point is 01:00:00 And hip, hold up my phone box, and say, listen to this. Oh, great shot. Fucking great turn. People rejoice instead of financing. Your preconcy of notions were shattered. By the shoe for all white people dancing. Oh, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:21 It's pretty good. It's very enjoyable. But it is diminishing returns. It's the same thing again. We don't need it. Yes. Good for the song. Don't need it for the video.
Starting point is 01:00:30 Agreed. Can we hear Andy say Boiled Goose one more time in the silly way? Yeah. The Lord of Lisa Steely, there's no excuse. Every day for lunch, they eat Boiled Gugs. That's the end, too. There's so many little musical hits in it that I love, too. Like, we put in a massive 808 on TurboBase.
Starting point is 01:00:53 TurboBase, boom. Yeah, it's very satisfying. I like it. But, all right, so that's talking about Bloombox. It's criterion. I don't need to hear anything about it. Oh, all right. Well, out of mutual respect,
Starting point is 01:01:06 I'd like to hear other people's opinions, but okay, fine. One of the interesting things about Boombox, in my opinion, is we did it way after the album came out. Like, we had gone sort of through the singles, right? And we were into the next season. Yeah, it's a year. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Is it a full year later? Because the album came out February 2009, and this is March 2010. Yeah, we had done Mother Lover and stuff. You know what I mean? We had already started making originals for the show that ended up on our second album. Yeah. And we finally
Starting point is 01:01:33 got to it. I was so glad that we eventually made a video for it because I... You're saying like that's how deep the fucking bench was. Well, you're the one who said it's all singles. It's fucking smat. It's just a lesson about how we could still do the video for Japan and semi-colon.
Starting point is 01:01:50 We should still do that. Oh, we should definitely do that. Hey, you know who would love it if we did the video for Japan? Our wives. Oh, right. Well, they could come and they'll just No, they can't come. No, no, you know, it's just the guys. No, keep on.
Starting point is 01:02:05 Absolutely not. What's the fucking point of they got? Why even do the video if they're there? What our kids are going to come to? This is too close to real. Too close to real. Hey, who got real nervous when Julian said Maya Rupert? And you were like, that's not her name.
Starting point is 01:02:23 All of us. All of us. They're like, oh, no. How can he forget that? Maya Rupert. It's the funniest way to missame. I mean, look, he's an artist. He's an artist.
Starting point is 01:02:33 I was like, oh, fuck, Julian's lost it. She's on a bunch of TV shows, movies. Yeah. Maya Rupert. They're like, oh, man. I've been watching Loom. She plays this rich lady. Maya Rupert.
Starting point is 01:02:47 That's definitely what my dad would say. All right, Manda Buts. Before we talk about Manda Busts. Just that transition. I'm sorry. All right. Let's get serious. All right, what everybody's been waiting for.
Starting point is 01:03:01 You're talking about you and Rob Klein wrote Mando Butts. Me and Rob Klein wrote Mando Butz. So this was the first time we tried it with Jude Law. It was... I don't remember why. I don't remember why. Let's just watch it. You're watching Tacoma Public Access,
Starting point is 01:03:20 broadcasting from our studio downtown right next to the public zoo. Coming up next, Mando Butz with Dave in the Scooch. That's a fucking great view. Mondo Buts Mando Mando Buts It's Mondo Buts With Dave and the Scooch All right, welcome to Mondo Buts
Starting point is 01:03:42 The only show dedicated to bring you All the most bodacious butts in town I'm Dave and this is the scooch Scooch a do All right again If we can't show it Maybe we show a picture from it I don't know what we're allowed to show
Starting point is 01:03:58 but Andy is in like a 90s polo button up that's got like purple and turquoise stripes and he's got a blonde hair that's not a flat top. It's a little pranksters. It's a little pranksters. Yeah, that's real. It looks to me like if Zach and Screech were smushed into one character.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Yeah, it's sticking straight up in the air like you were Zach and you touched one of those electric things that make your hair stand up. Yeah. And then we got Jude Law looking like I've never seen him before with like floppy dirty blonde hair as well and a full goatee and like some ripped jeans and some old long sleeve t-shirt just looking like a dirt bag there's a lot i mean so first of all these are like dirt bag
Starting point is 01:04:41 california guys yeah but they're weirdly in like a wood paneled let it's like everything about the set's weird no it's good you're a leather couch wood walls it's like wildly cheap look it's like a trashy basement that's trying to look fancy so they have one like greek style pillar also the audience is a little stumped as to how they're supposed to feel about these guys. When you were hearing Mando Butt, for those who were you listening, it was like close-ups of ladies' shorts in their butts. I do like that we edited that, though, because it doesn't feel like the editing of the show. No, and the butts are very...
Starting point is 01:05:17 Intentionally unsexual. Yes, they're just average butts as if you stole photos of the first 10 women you saw in New York. But they're ladies' butts, and these are dudes. And people are like, wait. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, these guys definitely enjoy the part in Splash when John Candy's doing the upskirts with his mirror. Right.
Starting point is 01:05:36 Yeah, thank you for putting it in towards our audience, understand. And Seth, speaking to the set that you're just bagging on, it's the next Wayne's world and it knows it. All right, let's keep going. Oh, is that a butt sculpture? It's like a bust of a butt. If it is, it's not framed well. Well, yeah, it's off camera now.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Yeah, Mondo bust. We got a sick show lined up today. Later on, we'll be joined by a hot chick from town that we're going to try and convince to show us her butt. But first up is my main man scooch with butts of the week. Buds of the week.
Starting point is 01:06:11 Hey, my brus grows. You know how this giz goes. Can you pause it real quick? It's not a marble butt. It's just a regular marble bust. There's literally no reason for that thing to be there. Oh, yeah, you're right. It's Caesar.
Starting point is 01:06:24 It's like Caesar. And then there's butts. the wall but also the parthenon it's crazy oh maybe that's going to get explained as it goes on because it will not this is literally a picture the parthenon are they doing it from when lord uncle's basement it's awful when lord it's all intentional set when lord hated a set he would say get keith who is the set designer i bet he fucking screamed it dude it's fucking iconic Instantly iconic Dude, if we can't put this
Starting point is 01:06:59 sketch online, please take a screen grab. Within 15 seconds they're confessing to be sex-of-en. Please put a screen grab of this frame so people can see why they're surrounded by Greek artifacts. They love butts in
Starting point is 01:07:14 ancient Greece. Because it's high brow, you guys. I don't understand where the disconnect is. All right, so it went to a side b-cam that's like an old MTV like handheld that pushes up on them fast while they give like
Starting point is 01:07:29 bleh faces for this Mondo butt whatever it is here butts of the week butts of the week yeah wait is that so his shirt has a 23 and is in the Bulls colors is that an actual license it's a homemade hard core unlicense
Starting point is 01:07:44 don't make it more painful than it has to be a I'll tell you all the booties I took pictures off around town this week how many booties do you snag sick Six fresh bugs. Oh, that's not a lot. Our first butt is this chick I saw walking in the parking lot,
Starting point is 01:08:03 which of course we share with zoo. I said, what's up? She gave me the finger, but then when she walked away, I snapped the keeper while they're trapper. Regular butt. But number two. Make sure these butts are so normal. What was that?
Starting point is 01:08:22 I don't know. Well, whatever it is, I hope its butt is miggity, miggity, Mondo. Ah! Stake in the zoo! Okay. So, all right there. So there's a big turn.
Starting point is 01:08:38 A gorilla, a man in a gorilla suit just jumped into the set. Sorry, did you not hear when he said we share the parking lot with the zoo? I did. And I liked it because I thought it was just a detail to let me know these are zoo butts. You guys thought we were celebrating these A-holes? The whole thing is a misdirect. Welcome to the Mind Zone, Cage. Samberg, Klein, and Chekhov wrote this.
Starting point is 01:09:02 This thing is air fucking tight. Thank you, and the set makes sense. It might by the end. It doesn't. Stop saying that. Stick with it, Seth. All right, I want to hear, so he breaks something, the window or something. Well, whatever it is, I hope it's butt is miggity, miggety, mondo.
Starting point is 01:09:24 Oh, crap, it's a jet gorilla! Oh, yeah, this is a water piece down! He pulls your jeans down, both your sets of jeans. So the gorilla's only very targeted, and you both are trying to get away, so you've crawled backwards up the couch, and all he's got is both of the back of your belt loops, and he's yanking down,
Starting point is 01:09:54 exposing your guy's butts. It's poetic justice. It's poetic justice. That's what I love about this sketch is that you're watching and you're like, God, these guys are so distasteful. Little do you know that all the writing is them getting their come-upins butt-wise. It's feeling satisfying. Yeah, like if they don't kill the wife at the beginning of Braveheart,
Starting point is 01:10:13 you don't want to see them murk everybody. You know what I mean? It's brilliant writing because it's all exposition that you don't think it's exposition. And Braveheart The whole time he's all You got murked Merked La da da da da dao
Starting point is 01:10:28 Marked He's like You've murked My wife Double Merked my wife Double Merk Now they murk you Merk
Starting point is 01:10:35 They murked my wife I don't want to get Merked A lot of you will be merked Today I will not be marked You will not be marked
Starting point is 01:10:48 But some of us will be merked All right, can we keep going to the fucking masterpiece zone? I want this to last forever. Yeah, this is when I was real happy today. All right. So then right when their pants are down, it goes to like the We'll Be Right Back, like, Station.
Starting point is 01:11:07 But I think we know based on their positioning on the couch and the way their butts are facing where the grill is, what might be about to go down. And it's, of course, a very stupid image of the We'll Be Right Back with both their dumb faces cut out that definitely your mate. Here we go. Yeah, I think I made a lot of the, images on this.
Starting point is 01:11:21 So it's fine work. I wish I could see your bet better, Andy. All right. Mando Butts, be right back. Also, the thumb is blurry. Yeah. Pulling their pants up, violated.
Starting point is 01:11:36 What? Is it gone? What? Okay. I have producers saying we should keep going with the show. So. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Can't sit down. Something bad is happening. Something bad. That's happened to their butts. He did seem just like he was targeting. Huge. Serious? Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:56 I saw the next bedacious butt at the mall. Let's see it. Okay. Bubba, blah, blah, blah. Okay. Yeah, it's in the editing suite. There's like three-quarter-inch tapes behind it. Because I'm bleeding a little bit.
Starting point is 01:12:14 So now we're going to bring out today's hot girl and try and convince her and show us her butt. Show us your butt. Hey. Hey. Did you hear that a gorilla escape from the zoo? No. Okay, are you gonna sit down or?
Starting point is 01:12:32 No. Okay, well what do you want to talk about? Um, I want to talk about that onion you're sitting on. What? What's an onion? It's a butt so nice it makes you want to cry. What happened to you guys? Nothing, just forget it. Show me over, man.
Starting point is 01:12:53 Just take a butt and leave. Fine. June seems like he's having a freaking die. Okay, this was a great episode of Mondo butts. Was it? Some of it. Until next time, this is David the Scoot. And if the butt's not Mondo, we don't want...
Starting point is 01:13:12 Oh, my God, there are a girl! we're never going to hear their cashphrase we immediately turn around short and sweet all right um client said a voice note and he uh he also told me we were free to edit it okay let's check it out really hope he explains the uh graco roman parthenon poster mondo butts no comment then he said you can edit it
Starting point is 01:13:44 he said he could edit that down he's wrong I should text it to him did you offer for him to see it again no I gave him Julian level warning just fucking threw me under the bus so hard it was our brain child client
Starting point is 01:14:00 on the Ryan Philippi episode did it did it air no went to dress a second time so we get to see it again yes and I'm not going to spoil for you guys I'm sure you don't remember, but I remember. We made some major adjustments. Yeah, oh, I can't wait.
Starting point is 01:14:13 That's exciting. I hope not to the set. Can I say? I definitely remember, Andy, you and I having a conversation. And I don't remember where I ended up on this, but you were very confident. You're like, we fixed it. Two shows later. This was not a joke.
Starting point is 01:14:27 You were like, Klein and I cracked it. No, obviously, you're super chilled people. It's not like top of the show, but it'll be in there. It'll be in there. So I think probably tell Lauren to get that card ready for Mondo Buts. I'm sure you kept it from last time. You can scoop it out of the trash, put it back up there. We put like four more Greek things in, so people will...
Starting point is 01:14:45 Yeah, we switched out the Parthenon for the Acropolis. That was obviously a huge problem. We swapped that door in. People were confused. Some people didn't even know why that stuff was there. Yorne, when did Maghruber come out? Do you remember the release date? May 20-something, 2010?
Starting point is 01:15:00 2010, right. So this is March. So that's why Ryan is hosting to do Magrubur. So we're starting the press roll out here. We maybe even have a trailer out at this point? Yeah, for sure, at this point. My phone? Sorry, my son's.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Oh, Yorm just tilted his camera down and we saw his penis. It's his box. I guess it is my penis. Really no other way to put it. I don't know what other word I could use. Well, he told me that a gorilla snuck in there just before we started. Nobody has video here. It wasn't my penis.
Starting point is 01:15:33 A gorilla mondoed his pants off. It wasn't my penis. I mean, his shorts are on, but like, seems like, He's probably commando. I'm wearing tight shorts. That's what he's saying. It just seems like it was inappropriate. Oh, yeah, there it is.
Starting point is 01:15:45 It would be really funny if it became a new story that I was suing Yorma for showing me as penis on a Zoom. I have oftentimes thought if it was easy to get restraining orders, it'd be so funny to have us get restraining auditors against each other.
Starting point is 01:16:02 Hey, we're a band. That can happen in a band. That's true. It happens in bands. A guy who's very famous for being in a band, it just confirmed that we're a band. Yeah, Sethley, take us home because I'm in trouble. Hey, this is wonderful.
Starting point is 01:16:15 Maybe one day we'll talk about hairheads, which was from this episode. I was going to say there's a whole hairheads we didn't even get to. We'll get to it at some point. There's three. Hairheads number one, number two, number three. Hairheads is going to go on my list of
Starting point is 01:16:26 when we do a catch-all catch-up episode. Anyway, it's great. I love you guys. Love you, Seth. Love you, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way. Wait, now Andy wants to stay. Oh, I'm sorry. Andy, Jack Black has a question.
Starting point is 01:16:39 Spelling be. Spelling be. Yeah, I got it clean. Have it. Don't ask me what time I did it. I started it at midnight when it switched over to the new one. It stayed until 1245 and then got up first with the kids like a fucking lunatic and it hurt all day. But it was worth it for this moment, Seth.
Starting point is 01:17:03 Thank you. How did you do, Seth? Love you guys. Love you. Love you guys. Later, Arnold. Later, Quaid.
