It's the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast. Yeah! Hey, guys, let's just jump right into it, because I'm very excited. Can I tell you why I'm excited? Please. Well, we're gonna talk about a couple things that got cut, my secret weapon and Mugless.

But then I went back and visited this episode. This maybe is one of my favorite episodes we ever did on the show. Because those things got cut? Well, those things were correctly cut having gone back and watched the entirety of the episode. It's a very good episode. It's a very good episode. It made my heart warm.

And there was a lot of people from and Golden Era came back to visit. It was a real trip down memory lane that I loved a great deal. But I also, of course, needed to open with a little housekeeping. First, how's everybody's job level? Uh, peak of the devil!

Whoa! Yoram, this is the first job we've ever seen served on camera. Served on camera. This guy's not mugless today. He's got a fresh mug. Yoram, did you have your assistant waiting outside the room to bring you a job? This is Emma, Company 3, who's a lovely, lovely person.

And she was like, I'm loving it. Not that she thinks you just called her the devil. Speaking of the devil, yeah. She doesn't know why you were talking about her. She doesn't know you were talking about the coffee. So you guys are talking about me? Yeah. She was like, am I going to interrupt?

And I was like, no, you're not going to interrupt. There is a woman that works here named Emma. You guys have got to meet her. You're going to love her. She's the devil, literally. a woman that works here named Emma. You guys have got to meet her. You're gonna love her She's the devil literally She's fucking up all my color correction all day You remember when we were talking about how I got free job at company three guys You just saw it live in actionion. And then what are you drinking, Andy?

Coconut water. Oh, coconut water. Because you look like, you look dead to the world, Andy. Yeah, it's been a bit of a grindy week. Hey, Andy, I have something to read you. This is a comment that I will say resonated with me. Somebody said, after listening to Andy on Amy Poehler's Good Hang podcast,

Oh, yeah. seeming so light and breezy, it's clear he deaf hates doing this one. Laughter I've never made any bones about it. I think it was just hard for me to hear you, like, just freewheeling on somebody else's podcast. He doesn't like scheduling this one.

That's the only thing. Yeah, that's true. He fucking hates scheduling this one. But he had to get in a car for that one. He had to, like, drive to go do's podcast. He doesn't like scheduling this one. That's the only thing. Yeah, that's true. He fucking hates scheduling this podcast. But he had to get in a car for that one. He had to like drive to go do that podcast. And it's like the happiest I've seen him in years. I mean, I got to hang out with Amy though. Yeah, I guess at the end of the day we can be. She's a better person than us.

Yeah, she's a better person. Somebody sent me a photo. They were watching rescue Rangers on a plane. And they basically said, I think you guys have to maybe reach out to Air France because Keev, I don't need to tell you, you directed that movie. You were listed in the credits as a Vika Shaffer, not a Keeva.

Ooh. Oh, shit. Ooh, that's a different name. This is Air France? I think it was Air France. I'll send you the picture, but I will say, I think a Vika should be our fun name for like, when you get all mad about stuff. Like you went full of Vika about balcony songs. Oh, here comes the Vika. I will say, I think Avika should be our fun name for like when you get all mad about stuff. Like you went full Avika about balcony songs.

Oh, here comes Avika. That's very, you're like, uh-oh. Looks like Avika's here. I've been called that to my face before, either Avika or Akira. Akira, yeah, I get both of those. Akira's cool. Wait, Avika though, is that your name in French though?

You know what I mean? Like is that how you pronounce it? Maybe you switch the vowels. The consonants, switch the consonants, yeah. Yeah, answer that Seth. Is that how the singer pronounce it? Yeah, probably. Oh, that's, yeah, you know what?

Before we like unload on Air France, let's double check that it's not how you say a Kiva in French. Before Yoram does his signature, goddamn frogs rant. Oh yeah. Frog fries more like. A lot of people were very happy

that we cleared something up for them. Many people for years now, over a decade, have thought the line in Mother Lover was not push in that lady. One person thought it was push in that ladle, thought you guys called your dicks ladles. Oh my God. Somehow way worse.

By the way, the other one's grosser, and now I don't even wanna tell you the other one. Tell it. Push in that labie, which they thought was short for Labia. Oh wow. They heard the word Labia and jumped to Labia. They jumped to a nickname for Labia

that no one's ever used. Push in that Labia is like when you're first trying to figure out how it works. Shouldn't it be passed? I guess what that, is that what that is? Maybe that's what that is? It's like if your dad's good at the birds and bee talks, it's what he tells you not to do. Don't just like push on the lady.

What the fuck word did you just say? Trust me, I'm assuming it's what the kids call it. Hey, real quick, Andy, how'd you do today? I got Queen Bee today, I got it yesterday, both times clean. Seth, you knew that and I want to just today, I got it yesterday, both times clean. Seth, you knew that and I wanna just thank you for bringing it up. Yeah, I wanna bring it up.

Oh, fucking hell, good job. That's a real friend. I got there with hints, last word I got. Oh, he just wanted to bring it up so we could talk about his own. No, no, no. No, because he didn't get it clean and he was ashamed of that. I didn't get it clean.

Look, I'm a dirt bag next to Andy, but P-fowl was the last word I got today. Yeah, I got P-fowl. Which was the pangram, or if you're on the pan-a-gram-o. Pan-a-gram. Thank you for translating. Mike sure texted me today about P-fowl, also furious about P-fowl. And I was like, what are you guys talking about?

That's a common B pangram. Here's the problem. I think there should be a word for when you're just trying words that you know aren't words. Because I for real tried P. Before I tried P-foul, I tried P-wolf. Oh, I definitely tried P-wolf. And I fucking know P-wolf is not a word. I definitely tried wolf P because we have coyotes and you have to put wolf P on your

property to scare them away. Right. So you thought it might be one word? Yeah, who knows? P-foul is P-E-A-F-O-W-L, peeve. And is that a real thing, or does that have to do with how the B works? That's a real word, and it turns up in the P a lot. Yeah.

Seth, do you remember what I told you the last word I got yesterday was, though? Yeah, penile. I mean, such joy when I realized. Yeah. It's like, I'm one word away. I'm wondering, oh, it's penile! It's like a perfect you thing. A perfect Andy Day. I feel like if the bee knew it was you doing it, it would have been like, ahem.

Akiva, you just accidentally made fireworks go off all around you. Yeah, I saw that. That was awesome. It was because I was getting an ethernet cord plugged in because my Wi-Fi kept cutting out and I kept missing what users were saying. But it looked like the fireworks went off as soon as Andy told you his last word was peanut. Which is how it felt inside. Like you were celebrating. I'm celebrating over here. I'm celebrating.

Definitely how it felt in my heart. Hey somebody, many people pointed out, Susan Sarandon played your mom again, Andy, and that's my boy. That's right. And that was not lost on us at the time. Yeah, very cool. I'm not sure if it had to do with the choice being made, but I don't think that it was unknown, you know? I just like that your career has two times led you to playing the son of Susan Sarandon. Yeah, I mean, the resemblance is uncanny.

Uncanny. Now, Jorm, you're friends with Susan Sarandon's son, right? A little bit? I'm pals with Jack, yeah. I wonder if he's mad at Andy kind of the way that we all know that Quedo's so pissed off at Miles Teller. Yeah, I was going to get a voice note from Jack and see if he was upset. Also, speaking of That's My Boy, I had dinner last night with Milo Ventimiglia, our joint friend, and he says hi to all you guys. Sweetie pie. Hi, Milo Ventimiglia, our joint friend, and he says hi to all you guys.

Sweetie pie. Hi, Milo. Hi, Milo. Rob Klein reached out with an important detail about the Pale and Farty website that you guys built. Yeah, that's right. That the only thing that you had on it was a button. There was a button not to order soup, but just to donate $50.

That was the only button. I don't remember that. That's a good detail. Wait, I have something for speaking of this. So I have not pre-listened to this, but my brother remembered something about the website or something and he just said... Oh great. More pale and farty talk. Hit us in the tittus.

Alright, let's see what he did. Is that something? I just thought of it. Very good. Hit us in the tittus. I think it's pretty good. So this is my brother, Micah. Hey guys. So pretty much the only thing any of you ever mentioned to me about Higgins was that he had called Hale and Hardy pale and farty. So ever since then, that's been the main thing I associate him with, whether it was a few times I saw him at an after party or years later seeing him on Fallon, I'm just like, oh yeah, that's the pale andarty guy. I have no memory of making the website. I couldn't

find a copy of it, but I did find a series of increasingly urgent and apologetic emails from Norma. This one was sent on a Thursday night, April 12th, 2007. He says, can you put this graphic up as a button in the center of the home page pale and farty also can you buy another site called and I'm not gonna repeat the domain name because it's it's objectionable but he says and put that underneath the donate now graphic under the word links I know this is getting annoying but it would be freaking sweet if you could at least put up the graphic now parentheses I understand the other stuff might take too long. Please Micah, I'll be

a grow forever norm. And then, uh, and then it's a forwarded message from Tara Donnelly at SNL, uh, the subject donate graphic and, uh, some images of a giant donate now button, which I apparently did minus the objectionable domain name. Yeah, that's what I know about it. Anyway, judging from when these were sent, I was definitely at work as were all of you. And it doesn't seem like it was worth it. Not that plain to me. I mean, I guess. For all trust, it was funny at the time. But yeah, it seemed like a lot of work. Cool, guys. Later. Oh my god. Wow. I love that that was just said, and we haven't even gotten a Muggles yet. Yeah.

That was how important it was to me. Because the clock was ticking. This is a YORM episode. It's a real YORM episode. Because Higgins was going to leave the room, that was the way it was to me because it was clock was ticking. This is a Yoram episode. It's a real Yoram episode. Well because Higgins was gonna leave the room, that was the why it was so pressing because the joke needed to happen while he was there. It's not funny if it's the next day. It's funny that it happens in an impossibly short amount of time. Yeah. It's like a magician. Yeah, like he made the joke and then while he's in the room, the joke happened unbeknownst to him. And our hands are all visible.

There's nothing up our sleeve. We didn't leave the room, you know? It's very impressive. Couple things. One, I feel like that's Higgins wished on a monkey paw to be forever remembered for his comedy. That's pretty great. And the only thing Micah remembered about him was that.

And then Tara Donnelly, who still does graphics for SNL, still does graphics for Late Night with Seth Meyers. I email her all the time and almost always the first line is, I'm so sorry to be asking this. The worst, can I tell you the worst thing I ever asked Tara to do and she actually helped me with was that when MacGruber was coming out, we decided to release a series of photographs of MacGruber naked with a tiny, tiny wiener on him.

I remember that, it's awesome. And so while it was happening, I was like hitting up friends of mine to see if they would take pictures of their child's penis. Oh my God, you can't do that. We can cut this out if it's too. No, it's good. No, we can't.

This is live. So anytime someone like Micah pulls up an email from you from 2007 and you realize that that stuff never goes away, are you always like, oh, no. Oh, no. I don't know. Clearly, I have no shame, guys. Clearly not. But anyway, **** took a picture of his kid's dick and Photoshopped it onto my girl.

Oh, well, he might not want that. He might not love this as much as he does. Just beat that part. You can leave it and then just beep, beep that part where I reveal who it is. A lot of people said, my life is a nightmare, we also have chicken McNuggets, should be on a t-shirt. You know, agreed. I mean, we all have... That line is the line

that stuck with me all these years. It's so fucking funny. Another person wrote in, for the rest of my life, instead of saying, it ain't over until the fat lady sings, I will now and forever say it ain't over until Arnold Schwarzenegger says, later quades. I feel like just a little wordy, but I love the sentiment.

We talked about how sometimes you get jammed up. If somebody says, obviously Quaid Army, we all know to say righteous kill, but what happens when someone says, Quaid Army, righteous kill to you? I think that happened to you, Andy. You didn't know what to do. Correct.

How to react. Run away. Yeah. So a couple members of the Quaid army suggested maybe if somebody says both, your response could be, excuse I? Like as a question or an exclamation? I think maybe two hands together and a bow like excuse I. Almost like, you know.

Almost like ancestors protect me like level. The other option somebody threw out there was me likey dat I. Almost like, you know. Almost like ancestors protect me, like level. The other option somebody threw out there was me likey dat. Oh, me likey dat. You can say. Oh, that's good. I mean, these are all great suggestions, but I'm gonna just get out in front of it and be like, can it just be Quaid army and we say righteous kill?

Yeah. Because I'm not gonna remember all these on the spot. Yeah, okay, so ideally just don't double up on us, everybody. If you wanna say both, that's fine, and I can go, oh! But in general, also, I don't want to bury what Andy, you know, again, he only seeded this a few minutes ago, but I think Hit Us in the Tittus does have a future.

Oh, yeah. When we're about to watch something, at least just on this podcast, we can be like, all right, Hit Us in the Tittus, Seth. That also sounds like it could be, way in on the comments, could be hit us in the titta. Oh, way better, yorm, great idea. Thank you, thank you.

Oh, someone else also said that I'm always like, we're gonna throw that in the show notes and it's never in the show notes. That's on me, I kind of just assume someone's doing that. I do, I do want to clarify, I never follow up. No. I fully never follow up, I just assume. Someone's taking notes and making sure.

I kind of thought there was some sort of AI robot who was listening to the pod and just doing most of what I said. It was just an echo. God damn it. Guys, I really enjoyed the rest of the pod as a listener last week, by the way. Great job. I'm glad. Well, yeah, that was something we should probably get to before we get into the app, right?

Oh, yeah. Is there anything mother-lover wise that you were listening to and thought you needed to add? No, I really did remember it being a surprisingly stress-free week after we cracked the song in a weird way. Like the victory lap feeling of like confidence that we were making something good and that things were coming to it easily

like Patty and Susan Sarandon. It was bizarre in that way. I was remembering that when you guys were talking about, about feeling good. Was it spring time outside? So was the weather nice? Yeah, it was. There was something about being outside and a shooting and me feeling like,

there's photos. I'm pretty sure this is the thing that Matt Yonks made a video of me called Happy Keeve. And he texted it to us. And it's a behind the scenes video. God, hold on. I'm going to just see if I can find it on my thing. Just under the Brooklyn Bridge, like grooving in the sunlight. It's me at the monitor with a shit eating grin, like live while you guys are performing

and you just see like joy in my eyes, and it was remarkable enough for him to make a video about it. Can you guys go into the memory bank and remember what you were gonna do this coming summer? Did you all know? Because I think that sometimes helps with the mood. Were we doing album number two?

Because I bet if you're going off to do album stuff, you're probably in a better mood than like trying to pull a movie together. We might have been. Well, yes, definitely that. And so you knew you're going off to do album stuff, you're probably in a better mood than like, trying to pull a movie together. We might've been. Well, yes, definitely that. And so you knew you were going back to a house that had been rad. Like this is probably as high flying as you could be

at the end of a season. It's also, there's some about New York in the springtime and you know, you're making a short film about fucking moms that, you know, I think it just makes you happy. This is miraculous, but I just searched Happy Keef and found it in my photos. So I can deflate you to the top. I feel like that's also a bad sign, Keef. This is so rare that he was like, oh, I gotta capture this.

And that also that you found it so quickly. Yeah, he searched Happy Keef in his email. There was literally one thing. It's the only time it has ever. That's not every day you get an email called Happy Keef. Look at that, happykeef.mp4. I send it to you a lot, happykeef.mp4. I send it to you a lot, but only because I'm vengeful.

Like after I'm successful in something, I always send you a thing being like, Happy Keef. I stepped in gum this morning, Happy Keef. You said I couldn't do it. I'm wishing you the worst constantly. All right, here you go. I'm calling on you, just act like you do it myself. To be your life, brother. To be my mother, brother. I'm like singing along.

So rad. He took it, must have been a way to win, right? It also tells you that somebody else saw you and was like, I gotta capture this Haley's comment. Look at him, he's just loving it. You're like, this is gonna work. He's just a happy dude. That's, cause when you know something's gonna work, Keith, that is what makes you happy.

Yeah, and I'm just staring at, I'm seeing the video happen. And I'm saying the words subconsciously. Oh, I've patched the camera. This is a dream. We can put this in the YouTube one at least, right? Yeah, that's really adorable. Yeah, it seems fine.

Put it in the show notes. Does it pan over? Are we gonna see them? There they are. There you guys are. Put it in the show notes, hit us in the tits. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Put it in the show nuts. Hit us in the tits. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hit us in the tits. Hit us in the tits. -♪ Hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us in the tits, hit us inounge. Yeah, and they wonder why we have back pain, guys. You sacrifice for your RC.

You sacrifice. Yeah, you keep saying, this is my Chaka moment. I did keep saying that. Where's my cortisone shot? Put one in my butt. Oh, here's something else I remember from that setup, in that moment. So we're on your stage, as you guys mentioned.

Lorne visited, and I think it's the only time he ever visited a digital short that we were shooting the entire time. Is that right? Well, except for the 100th, as you guys mentioned, Lorne visited, and I think it's the only time he ever visited a digital short that we were shooting the entire time. Is that right? Well, except for the 100th, that, you know, when we... Oh, the 100th, yeah, because we put him in it. Yeah. But yeah, it's always very, or laser cats, I guess.

But that's a real, I say this with love, Lorne does not come by to make sure everything's going okay. Lorne comes by because he can feel the heat. That's what I mean. You wanna be near that heat. That's what you, and Susan Sarandon, and Patricia Clarkson are there, and they're in the heat. That's what I mean. You wanna be near that heat. That's what you and Susan Sarandon and Patricia Clarkson are there. They're in the building.

We're just on the eighth floor. It's not that hard to find us. But still he came into our set while we were shooting and it was memorable. Did I tell you guys that when Lauren was on set for MacGruber and Will is air humping a ghost and is just humping into, like, nothing. I've never seen Lauren laugh so fucking hard.

And we kept making Will do it, because we all thought it was so funny, but he was like, this really hurts! Guys, can I stop this? And we were like, no, just keep going! And Lauren laughed as hard... Lauren laughed almost as hard as when that guy broke his femur on Hot Rod.

I was like... What was your stuff? I was going to say he laughed so hard he coughed guy broke his femur on hot rod. What was yours, Seth? I was going to say he laughed so hard he coughed up. Last month's edamame. We both had zingers. Sometimes zingers overlap, and that's something you have to understand. You got to say it again.

Yeah, then you've got to give up. And then good friends let somebody else's zingers go first. Good friends don't let good friends drive drunk without saying their zingers before they drive. All right, so we got a couple things. I wanna start with my secret weapon. Wait, Keefe, do you have anything else you wanna say about Mother Lover?

Yeah, thank you, thank you, Randy. Sorry, Seth. No, Seth, I'm sorry. I don't, I don't. I thought you guys covered it very well. I remembered the after part, I remembered everything. You took me right down memory lane and I'm very proud of it.

And I like that you guys didn't talk shit about it. You know, you owned a win, a rare win and you owned it. Oh, I have a question for you, Keev. Do you remember that when we all voted for the 64 finalist shorts that we all voted for Iran so far? Because Andy thinks that he... I honestly, when you were talking about it, if you had quizzed me, I would have thought the final two was Jack Sparrow and Mother Lover. And so that's how much I don't remember. Okay, this guy's got a bad memory.

And then I would have thought we voted for Jack Sparrow. This guy's not even a part of the conversation. I mean, he can't even be included in the conversation. But I do think Jack Sparrow might be the best one. Yeah, I also might think that, yes. Seth, in the grid or whatever you call it, was Jack Sparrow against Mother Lover. And that's why it didn't make it into the final two, because in my mind, those should be the two battling for supremacy.

It was definitely a one seed. I remember the four one seeds were Mother Lover, Dick in a Box, Jack Sparrow, maybe Lazy Sunday? So I'll have to go back. Well, I'll be ready to answer that question next week. OK, great. But it's a great question. Maybe when we get to the Jack Sparrow episode,

I'll be ready to answer that question. That's fair. There maybe is a great. Maybe when we get to the Jack Sparrow episode. I'll be ready to answer that question That's very there. Maybe is a time Maybe when we finish getting through all the shorts where we like we do it over again with people who listen Yeah, the coins. Yeah, I think I list I think the quades revote. I think that's great call. Yeah, that'd be an interesting experiment Oh my god, Andy. I thought you meant that we were gonna do all hundred shorts again Oh, yeah, it's gonna start and 100 shorts again. Oh yeah, that's a great idea. Like you're just gonna start from the beginning and do it again. Shoot them again or podcast them all again? Podcast again.

Podcast them all again. Well no, you shoot them all again so we can do 100 more podcasts. That's how we never have to stop this cast. Well that's the thing, the looming question on this whole podcast is. Okay, Lazy Sunday, what do we remember? It's what do you remember about the first podcast?

Yeah, we're testing our memories. What did I say? I remember even less And what did I say in that one? No, I don't think I said that just because you're will be so psyched There's all those stories. You're mistold four times. He gets to tell again. Yeah exactly. Oh, yeah. Okay. I can't wait Anyway, I got Queen be clean Seth. Let's move on. You quit me you quit me. I quit me that bitch support for the lonely island and Seth Meyers podcast comes from Airbnb. You know guys, we talk a lot about Finland on this podcast, which never thought would happen.

But as my name is Jorma Takkonen, almost, it makes sense. And one thing that you guys may not have realized is that I stayed at an Airbnb when I was in Finland in Tampere. And one of the great things about that is that I felt like a native. So when I said things like, Moi Moi or Moi to people, they were like, that guy is definitely Finnish. Also, his name is Jorma. Anyway, it was great. There was a sauna in my place. Killer. So I could feel the lull. And it's great when a place that is a workplace or a vacation place feels like home.

And so if you're daydreaming about going to Finland or somewhere in Norway or anywhere in the world, really, I mean, most places, you can get an Airbnb. It's great for family traditions, vacations are how you bring people together, guys. And also, when I go back to Finland, I'll be probably staying at an Airbnb in Helsinki. And when I do that, I'll probably think to myself, what am I doing, man? I'm out here. What's my house doing just sitting there? It could have people in it right now.

And it's also great to be able to like create spaces for people, create that home environment for people to feel so they don't feel like a bunch of tourists in a city wherever you live. Anyway, it's extra income that can support more travel or life goals, whatever you wanna do. Your home could be worth a lot more than you think. Find out how much more at airbnb.com slash host.

Support comes from factors. Summers here, more sun, more light. In fact, so much sun, so much light. The other three guys, they busted out. I mean, I'm still doing the podcast. I can see them out the window right now hitting their little beach ball around. Oh my God.

Woo! Look at them there enjoying themselves so much out there. Give it to me! And you keep on. Look at them over here! Here you go! Meanwhile, you know what? I don't wanna be here stuck inside

spending hours cooking for these three, but I don't have to anymore. That's where Factor comes in. Factor's chef-crafted, dietitian-approved meals are ready in just two minutes, taking the hassle out of eating well. And the thing is, they arrive fresh, ready to eat.

Before we dive into the Will Fowl sketch, I just wanna point out that this is a YORM episode because Mugless and My Secret Weapon are YORM specials. Neither that the public got to see both, you know, at least I know we feel like the digital short should air

but maybe Mugless, I don't know, or maybe not at all. Oh my God, I just rewatched Mugless. I can't wait to talk. I'm telling you, I'm gonna tell you this. It might be top to bottom. It is all bangers. It's hard to argue. Oh, when you look at what did it. The digital short should have made it.

The rundown. This show is exceptional. Got it. No, I don't mean that it should even have aired this show, but I did think it was good enough to just air in general. It's called My Secret Weapon. Let's jump in. Let's jump in.

My Secret Weapon starts with Will Ferrell, who introduces himself as Will the Money Ferell. He's wearing a robe and he's talking about how he's very successful and people always say what's his secret. And then it widens and there's a cage with sort of a, I mean it's a paper mache, rabid kangaroo looking thing. How long had you been working on that not even knowing what we were going to do with it? Okay well do you guys remember that I had made it

like I was it was in the process of sort of making it for a while. Yeah. It was in our room and I had made it out of I did I was making puppets let's go back a little bit. So we we've had puppets in some of our other things before. Stork Patrol is early Lonely Island days. We made a giant stork puppet. I made that out of like chicken wire and bedsheets cut up into pieces to make like feathers and like a pole that goes through. And then we made a puppet of Sarah Chalk

when we couldn't get her to be in this. The Boo, the Channel 101. The Boo, the Channel 101, the Boo episode. So I made it out of a FedEx box and made this like sort of puppet looking thing. So I made it out of a FedEx box and made this like sort of puppet looking thing. So I love making puppets. I had wanted to do this idea for a really long time of this rabid kangaroo thing. So I made it out of a classic like third grade style, big balloon, paper mache body. And it's calling a kangaroo is really it's like it looks like

a weird rat with big ears. Until Will calls it a kangaroo, that would never occur to me. No, like never. It doesn't even have a pouch, and it was like a tube that you would get a poster, like was its neck, I remember, and it has eyeballs, its eyeballs are light bulbs,

so it looks really bugged out and sort of cracked out, psychotic looking. And then the noise it's making, as soon as he whips off the thing, he's like, this is what I use, my secret weapon is this, which is this. So it's basically the Tasmanian devil kind of sound. Yeah, and it's you, right? It's me just going, and I'm puppeteering it as well.

I'm banging it against the cage. And I remember, Keev, we had a lot of fun making it. So the premise is that he, well, well, go ahead, Seth. You tell him. So before I get to the premise, did you build the puppet for the purpose of this short, or did you build the puppet and then come up with a short to fit the puppet?

Sort of both. I always sort of knew that I wanted to be this psychotic kangaroo. I remember at one point, correct me if I'm wrong, both of you guys, but didn't Rolling Stone, early days of Lonely Island at SNL, come and take pictures in our room? And there was a double page spread, I think in Rolling Stone. Yeah.

And it's us dressed in like, almost like Beastie Boys style, like we're in like hazmat suits or something. Like, I don't know what, but I'm holding the kangaroo. But I can't find this, so I would love to see if anyone can track that down. But like there's a picture of us and the kangaroos in it. Yeah, I remember that. Yeah. But yes, it was sort of both. I knew that I wanted to attack people, Seth,

but it wasn't a real idea for the short necessarily. So Will basically says that, how do you keep young actors from sort of supplanting you on top of the mountain? And then he has a board of photos of the cast, and he sort of circles Keenan Thompson and shows Keenan to the rabid kangaroo puppet. And then we just sort of follow the kangaroo

as it basically goes to find Keenan. And you guys are obviously, you're sort of wild filming it in New York, I'm assuming. Yeah. Yeah, and then a really fun song comes in that's just going bum bum bum bum bum bum bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. And then the kangaroo just sort of goes through the bottom of frame because I was obviously

puppeteering and having to crouch down, Chaka style. And then he takes the subway. People sort of love seeing him because he's an adorable puppet thing. You see people enjoying it. And then he finds Keenan in the hallway of SNL. And he bites Keenan in the throat, and it's super bloody. He kills Keenan.

Yeah, then it gets really violent. Was this the season finale? It is, yeah. Yeah, that's the real energy that I remember, Yoram, because we had nobody famous with us, just a puppet. The joy of it being sunny out again, and us getting to just run around the city with a puppet goofing around.

And I think you were filming it, right? You need, you like that sun. That's what I think you were filming it, right? Yeah. You need, you like that sun. That's what we're learning today. Yeah, love that sun. When the sun, when the sun starts shining in New York City after the long winter, it truly changes your, and you know you're at the end of the season, and you know that break is coming. It is genuinely a feeling I remember. I mean, odds that we're all kind of hung over from the writers' party years are high.

Yeah. And let's not forget, you feel a lot better at the end of a good season and the end of a hot run of shows, which we were on. Yeah. And that makes a massive, it's not like, oh my God, end this nightmare. It's more like, oh my God, thank goodness

we get to be happy about the last few things we did for the next three months. Yeah, we had Like a Boss and Mother Lover in the last three episodes, so we were feeling pretty good. Yeah, and the shows were great, and the hosts were great. And Boat was right before it, right? We talked about that. Yeah.

It was a really, really nice stretch for us. Oh, you know what? What we didn't quite talk about that was one last Mother Lover thought was how cool it felt that we had made a whole album. We had been relying on that album, but not thinking of fresh ideas as much with Boat and Boss.

Then all of a sudden, knowing we still had other songs from the album, had to come up with something brand new. There was something cool about being like, oh my God, we made something for the next album. Yeah. That we were ahead, that we had come up with something fresh in the middle

of promoting an album full of songs. I don't know. I remember feeling good about that. Jeff found the picture. It's in the chat. Oh, wow. Nice work. Oh, yeah. There's the guy. Andy Samberg's Mind Squad. Is that the Mind Squad one? No, Mind Squad.

We always hated that title so much. Oh, yeah. You're holding Andy's got a real bottle of Santana DVX from our album. That's my favorite part. The posters we've talked about, the multiple times about people putting up the posters that we did not ask for in our album, that we never found out who did it.

Took a little photo. We have a breakfast of Tiffany's and Amelie and a train spotting poster. And Scarface, obviously. Yeah. Yeah, the Scarface though is yorm on purpose. Well, obviously we're gonna throw that in the show notes for you guys to look at as well. Yep, obviously. Yeah, the Scarface, though, is Yhorm on purpose. Well, obviously, we're gonna throw that in the show notes for you guys to look at as well.

Yeah, yeah. We've got the MacGruber control room sign on our door. We've got Be Your Own Pet, which was ours. We've got Yhorm's monkey painting, right, Yhorm? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The monkey with the crown. Yeah, that Brian Burton gave me. Some good stuff.

We'll put this in the show notes. But hit us in the tits on this photo. Yeah. Oh, by the way, just to let you know, with the Mind Squad, whenever we would want to rip on Andy, that's what we would mention that. I do kind of want to list this episode as the Seth Meyers and Andy Sandberg Mind Squad podcast.

Yeah. Yes, it's definitely not a fun moment when, like, two of your childhood best friends get referred to as your mind squad For people seeing dick in a box and going who are the minds that came up with this without the first question But what controls the face yes, yes, he says the words, but who are the minds? We need to know. Oh, shit.

And it's not one, I'll tell you that. There must be a squad. Must be an entire squad. Which is, as we all know, two or more. Two, it's two men and a kangaroo puppet. That's not a kangaroo, it's a rat. No, it's a kangaroo. Um, so again, like my secret weapon, the kangaroo finds Kean, very bloody, bites him on the neck, Kenan dies,

blood all over Andy, a couple other cast members, and then cut back to Farrell as the bloody puppet returns and he gets a phone call telling him that Kenan Thompson has died and he has to feign shock and say, another kangaroo attack? So I have a question. Well, can I say my favorite part of this, which I had forgotten.

Say as many, as much as you want. It was really just that it ends with him crossing Kenan off the list, scrape, scrape, and then Don Pardo's voice says, sorry, pal. We can play this video too. I mean, we have it right here. Let's take a look. Can I ask a question before we start?

So you kind of know what's gonna happen because of how the kangaroo looks. We have it right here. Can we? Let's take a look. Can I ask a question before we start? Mm-hmm. So you kind of know what's gonna happen because of how the kangaroo looks, right? You mean like the audience does? Yeah. Well, you forget because the song is so charming though. The song is really fun, right? Okay.

So you're having a good time. This is a half-baked idea, but we thought it would pull through like Andy punching people on it's like analog joy. There was a lot of analog joy. Hi there. I'm Hollywood icon Will the Money Thorell. You know, in the movie game there are a lot of young bucks out there going after the same chunk of change.

I used to get pretty pissed off thinking about some beehole' in on my future payday, but not anymore. All thanks to what I got under this tarp. Not a tarp either. Some sort of diseased kangaroo I found in the dumpster. And the way it works is simple. First I find some young dickhead startin' to horn in on my turf. Today, Mr. Keenan Thompson.

I make sure the kangaroo gets a good look at the jerk-off so there can be no slip-ups. Oh, my God. That's when I open up the cage. Go! Get out there! Don't petty. Go. Get out there. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. He's checking the subway maps.

He's swiping his card. He's just riding, pleasantly riding a subway. Oh, yeah, seeing real faces looking at him. Oh, yeah! It's dirty rock. It's a good puppet, it's a good puppet. Thank you, good puppeteering too. So then Kel says to me, more like bad burger.

Oh, Kel's right. Yeah! Yeah! What the fuck are you doing? Come on! Oh my god, it's really bloody and violent. Really good blood. Nice work, you weird little freaky rat. Hello?

What's that? Oh no, not another kangaroo attack. That's horrible. Sorry, pal. Yeah, I get why it didn't air. Yeah, but a lot of fun though. So Andy, I can't believe you haven't shouted out that it's frisbee. It's basically frisbee. Yeah, it occurred to me in the rewatch. I was like,

oh, it's frisbee. That's why I don't like frisbee. This is the biopic about frisbee. Who could die any day? We don't know. I know it's really God damn it. I saw that clip. I saw that polar clip. God damn it. I saw that clip. I saw that polar clip. So Seth asked Polar in their pre-conversation that Polar does on her podcast, where she talks to a friend of a friend and says, what would you want to ask my guest?

Seth says, tell him Frisbee died and see what genuinely tell it and see what his reaction is. And Andy, his reaction is just joy. Just like, and then he immediately calls bullshit because it's too good to be true. Just a, just a don't, don't, don't, don't do that to me. I know.

It is really funny because Andy, this will surprise everyone to know, like very image conscious. Like there are times he's like, hey, let's take that out of the pot. I don't want to be caught. And like, you're just fully doubling down on like a dog that's definitely gonna die,

likely in the next six months. Yeah. It's the best. I don't know what to tell you. It's just a bad looking dog. Do you, we were saying that like, Keev, I feel like Amy's delivery was the funniest version. Yeah. But like, she did go like, oh dude.

Like she started, oh dude. Oh dude, did you hear? Yeah, that sounds a little false. Yeah, a little false. But it was, I mean, I've watched it like 15 times and it makes me laugh so hard. I'm very glad to have Andy reveal his dark side

because, muggles, I've been thinking about it and then when we've been talking about it. Don't drag me into your thing. Well, you were sort of involved. You were sort of involved, Andy. One thing is like a fun jape between bros. The other is that of a sociopath. No, it is not.

And by the way, the fact that you keep wanting to tell the full story. I keep waiting for Andy to back off and go, it's fine, you love the dog. Like, when the dog does pass away, I keep expecting him to be like, that there's gonna be some, I don't know, redemption at the end of this story. But then he just doubles and triples down. Yeah.

I do not like the dog. That's just true. And you like dogs. I like them totally fine. There's dogs I love. He tolerated. He was at my house. He tolerated the dog.

There's dogs that when they come up to me, I'm like, oh, and I give them little snuggers and give them little sneeze. He sent a video of your dog humping his leg. Like this is the best dog. Oh, humping your leg. Oh my God, that was so great. Keith just looking at his computer while the orchestra is like composing music for Naked Gun

and his dog's just fucking his chin. Yeah, I just had toned it out, just tuned it out. Keith, you probably have watched the entirety of the original Naked Gun more recently than me. I would say so. Do you feel like a nine and a half year old dude could enjoy it? I know there's like some sexually suggestive stuff,

but I feel like so many of the jokes are fun. Yeah, the suggestive stuff is, it's just the giant condoms. It's the only thing where you could even get something explained. That's in the first one? That's in number one? Yes.

And that's the only thing that you'd need explained. Like why are they in these giant rubber suits? What are those? That would be it. Because anything else like Nice Beaver would just... Yeah, work on its flat level of a beaver comes down. Yeah, or just go over their head and they wouldn't be like,

what's the double joke to this? Why were you laughing earlier than I was laughing? What they won't know is like, it's an entirely new genre to them. So the idea of even voiceover being like, I's an entirely new genre to them. Right. Like, so the idea of even voiceover being like, I'm on a detective case and I had to do it, it's just all foreign.

Right. But there's stuff like, I'm like, almost everything that happens at the baseball stadium is gonna crush with him. You know what I mean? Oh, that's wonderful. Yeah. Dancing umpire and yeah.

Yeah, getting attacked by a lion and someone's head falling off. I'll be curious to know, I've not shown it to my kids, but I'd be curious to see, because we certainly would have loved it at 9-O. I think the condom thing is the biggest weird thing, but everything else... That's the only thing that someone might ask a question,

and you might have to have a person... I mean, I still don't get that joke. I still don't get it. Yeah, because it's against God. Yeah, well, because the only thing my dad told me... Using a rubber? Never that. The only thing my dad told me... That's Seth. Sorry, that was Seth's thing that tells us when we're not recording.

Yeah. And I was like, damn, really? Yeah. All right. He's like, I got babies everywhere, bro. I got them everywhere. Why you think I'm doing so many podcasts? I'm just like, damn, this is not your public persona. No.

I got fucking kids everywhere, bro. Again, I don't know exactly what that tone is, but it doesn't feel like you. I am put here by God to make more me. That's what he says. And I'm like, whenever you're on location traveling, Andy, remember, I'm always like, say hi to my kids. Yeah. Wherever you are. By the way, Seth blushed really hard. I was watching him blush for that whole thing. I was mostly just thinking like, oh my God, that would love that.

Have kids everywhere. Cause you love kids so much. Yeah. Yeah. So, Harry, Mugless. Mugless. Okay. First of all, so Mugless, I think because it's called Mugless,

we just talk about it more than maybe it deserves, but Mugless just always made us laugh as the title of a sketch. Yeah. Now, Yoram, you can talk about the sketch or you can talk about how autobiographical it is. No, no, I think we need to talk about like just how it came to be. So yes, this was one of the few sketches that I like wrote just me solo at the, you know, at the show.

Yeah, a rare Takoni solo effort. And so this came from when we were all living in Los- A Takolo. Nice. When we were all living in Los Angeles together. Almost missed it. I just want to say Andy, that was almost too late. You got it. It's a tocollo. Solo tocollo.

Anyway, hit us in the tittus. Tell us if you can think of a better one. So we were temping. I think we've talked about temping before on this show. Me and Andy got a job for I think like four days working for a company called Pure Beauty, which I was surprised that no one who worked there ever thought, if you say it fast, it sounds like puberty. And everyone was like, really? Oh, yeah. We were working at Pure Beauty. And our job was to like cut things. I think we were supposed to like take one of those like slicer, paper slicers, and we were slicingin' paper. Like, that was all I remember doing, Andy.

I don't know if we did other things, but we were in this one little room together. There was this one woman who was in charge of us, and she was a really sweet little person, and she kept calling us her champion cutters. She was like, oh, how are my champion cutters doing? And she was very sweet. She was kind of very mild-mannered.

My champion cutters. We were her champion cutters. So condescending. And at one point. You guys, this is such a reminder that before you guys were like a hit, you were such losers. Such losers. We were not worried about it, Seth.

We weren't worried about it at all. No, we were just excited that we got to work together all day long and talk to each other. We literally were just like, how can we pay the rent and eat one burrito today so that we can shoot stuff and write stuff. Yeah, so we can go make music videos. So she could have called you anything,

is what you're saying. Oh, truly, truly. We were so dissociated from the experience of working. We were basically the honoras of temp agencies. We were the honoras of champion cutters. What we said we would do, we wanted the jobs where two or three of us could do it together, which we've covered before. We would take less paying jobs just so we could work together.

She'd come in and we'd be like, we don't usually let people tell us to cut like this, but for you, you're special. We'll be your champion cutter. Bring us back next week. I do hope she hears this episode, because this is all new information. So, so I went to the break room at one point and I found this mug. It's kind of a classic mug. It has green and blue on it and there's this little leaves on it. Like if you saw it, you'd be like, I've seen that mug before. I liked it. It was kind of a classic mug. It has green and blue on it, and there's those little leaves on it. Like, if you saw it, you'd be like, oh, I've seen that mug before, right?

I liked it. It was kind of thick. It was good for, like, tea or coffee or whatever. And I was like, look at this mug, cool. And I brought it in to Andy. I was like, check it out. I'm gonna take this mug. BOTH LAUGH I put the mug in my bag, and I stole it. I went home. We were coming back. I forgot you actually took it. I thought you hid it. Oh, dude, no. Yeah, I took it. I stole it. Oh were coming back. I forgot you actually took it. I thought you hid it. Oh dude, no. Yeah, I took it.

I stole it. Oh my God. Okay, keep going. He tipped himself. You're being paid minimum wage to cut paper. He stole. He's in his very early twenties. And I will say, we immediately were like,

what are you doing? We're not, it wasn't like, we were like, yeah, we're the kind of people that steal things. Do you think to some degree you thought it was a trophy that a champion cutter deserved? I... I... I was cutting hella fast that day. He's like, normally I don't steal, but I did cut well. I just want to, again, reiterate that Yoruma

did not usually steal things, and me and Andy never did. Correct. And we did not think this was ethically... This gets worse, though. No, but we did not think this was ethically. This gets worse though. This gets. No, but we did not think this was like morally or ethically correct. And we were saying so.

And I hope listeners know, and I've always said this, you three are some of the most ethically sound people I know. So this is very out of fashion. Is that a character? I don't know. I don't know. I wanna push back on that.

Like, do you remember when we broke into Berkeley High? I think stop saying we, Yoram. I would stop saying we. Yeah, that's probably a good call. Yeah, but let's not talk about that either. Okay. This was like the Medieval Times drunk Yoram stealing the photo, but he was sober. Oh, yeah, this is the second time

we've talked about Yoram stealing, so maybe Yoram does steal, Keeva. Yes, he's got a little bit of a pranky, pranky evil little streak, the little gremlin streak. If it's funny enough, if it's funny enough, yeah. So again, let's get to the funny enough. Okay, so I steal the mode. It's the next day, we go back

because we're going there multiple days. And then as I'm going through the halls, going back to the Champion Cutter room, I hear in the break room, the little voice who I recognize very well as our boss, a mentor, just being like, hey, has anyone seen my mug? Hey, my mug's missing.

Has anyone seen my mug? And I was just like, I ran into Andy's, like just giggle, full of giggles into the room of the Champion Cutter Room. And I was like, Andy, it was her mug. I took her mug, she's missing her mug, and she's freaking out about it. And he was like, you're a bad person.

I remember he turned to me like, you're a really awful person, you should get back. I was like, no fucking way, dude. I'm like, I love that mug, I'm keeping that mug. And I kept it. And do you feel, is this kind of a frisbee thing though, where you can relate, because you also have a similar blind spot of being a really good person.

No, don't drag me into this. And then all of a sudden, I'm like, no. I have no connection to this sociopath's fucking crazy decision to steal a mug and then get off on it. This is coming out of your mouth that you just said that you just said that you'd be happy when the dog that has brought the Myers family so much joy for a decade passes away.

You're going to dance on the grave. I think it's the exact same thing. It's not the same thing. Here's why it's not the same thing, because Seth is a cocky piece of shit. This woman was trying to be nice to us. You know what I'm saying? Like, and frankly, so is Alexi.

So the two of them together are a couple of smug fuckers. Yeah. They shove their little rat on your lap. You clearly have to use the bathroom. Yeah. And you're like, yeah, well, guess what? Trauma. From now on, you live in my trauma too. Whereas this nice lady was just trying to cheer us on. We were fucking losers.

You heard Seth. I gotta disagree. By the way, classic high horse Seth calling us losers. This is exactly why I have to rip on Frisbee because of his fault. And then you're- Here's the reason it's the same. I don't think 24 year olds that have to take temp jobs

are losers, by the way. Nor do I! That's why Seth is such a piece of shit and Frisbee's a rat. I mean, it all makes sense. I don't understand why you even have to a piece of shit and Frisbee's a rat. I mean, it all makes sense. I don't understand why I even have to defend this. It's so fucking clear.

The lines are crystal clearly connected. But we were, I think we were actually 22. You're a beautiful mind. You're a beautiful mind, Keev. We were 22 maybe. You're much older and should know better. Go ahead. Okay, the reason, the reason it's the same.

The reason it's exactly the same is because- Just finish your story. I started calling her Muggles to her face. So when she came in, like, as she would say like, oh, we're gonna, I was like, oh, what was that Muggles? And she would be like, but I would slip it in really fast. And I just started calling her Muggles to her face.

No, but Andy was never an audience. Andy never enjoyed it. So you're just doing this for you. The comedy was for you only. Well, he knew it was never an audience. Andy never enjoyed it. So you're just doing this for you. The comedy was for you. Well, he knew it was driving me crazy. I was doing it for Andy's benefit. Yeah, because I was doing it in front of Andy. It was part of you getting off on it was me being like,

why are you doing this? Yes, it became a show for someone disliking it. The same way if nobody was bothered by the frisbee talk, it would have died out a long time ago. Exactly. Thank you, Keith. Firm disagree. Firm disagree, that's embedded in my DNA. So anyway, then I wrote the sketch,

which is basically Will Ferrell doing, basically beat for beat. I can't remember who's, is it Abby Elliot? Abby Elliot plays Mugless. Abby Elliot is the nice lady. Can I just get out in front of it and let you know, it played for the SNL audience pretty much the same way it played for me in real life.

Yeah, they were not. Why would you do this? She's nice. Why are you torturing her? It's also like a really, people love Will Ferrell. And he's playing just a bad guy. He's playing me. Nobody's that psyched about watching him be a bad guy.

We should have asked Ferrell for a voice-not. Oh my god. Maybe next episode. Yeah. Yeah. We should have asked Farrell for a voice in that. Oh, my God. Maybe next episode. Yeah, yeah. I don't know if he'll remember it, but... Can we watch it? Do we have it? I think he'll remember it. I do have it. Well, and then, okay, so to complete the cycle, though, here. So, Seth, very sweetly, because I loved this, obviously,

because it was just a piece of my heart. You know, like, and so when it didn't air, it was, it was, what, was it end of season? Seth, you gave me the card that was on the board of Mugless. I did, yeah. And I framed, he framed it and gave it to me as a gift. And then another great gift that he did was that just recently, maybe a year ago, I received in the mail a fucking mug that Seth stole from me like 10 years previous.

No, that's not true. You left your fucking mug at my house. Yeah. I didn't steal it. Okay, that was my fault. In my mind, you stole it. The muggless guy literally begged me to take his mug, which I did, I kept it for 10 years,

and I would send you a picture once a year of me drinking out of your mug. And that's just karma, buddy. That's just karma. Oh, I wish you had stolen it. But then I finally did mail it back to you. I wish you had stolen it. You did.

You did, and that was a really nice mug. I passively stole it. So I got my justice. I passively stole it. Yeah. Yoram, do you have the mug from Muglist? Not the sketch, the real one. Did it come from LA to New York? Well, I did recreate the mug.

I had them create the exact same mug for the sketch. So you threw it away at some point. You gave it away to Goodwill? The one you stole from the sport lady? Smashed it. Goddamn. I'm very excited we're gonna watch. I mean, by the way, a couple of things.

Mugless does not play. There are still like four really funny parts in it. Feral's great. Andy is basically playing himself now, I realize, in the sketch. I realized it more, I rewatched it before this, but I'm now like, oh right, I was playing it the way I actually played it IRL. Alright, here we go.

What a treat. Most sketches aren't ripped from real life this much. Hey, hey, hey, Peter! Peter! Oh, hey Dean, what's going down? What are you doing back here? Check it out. He has red hair.

Kathy lost her mug. She's really freaking out. Aw, that's too bad. Yeah, totally. Wait, isn't that Kathy's mug that you're holding? Oh, is it? I hadn't noticed. Oh my god, here she comes. Hey guys, have either of you seen my mug?

I put it in the cupboard yesterday and now it's gone. Oh no, Kathy, You lost your favorite mug? Yeah, I can't find it anywhere. Oh, that's terrible. Isn't that terrible, Peter? Kathy lost her favorite mug. Yeah, that's really lame, Kathy. I'm sorry about that. Hey, did you check in the dishwasher? Maybe it's in there. Oh yeah, thanks, Dean.

You bet. One guy loved it. That was hilarious. What a waste of space, huh? Jesus, Dean. Cool out, man. Whatever, Peter. Ew. Wig and Andy enter.

Oh, hey, hey. Erica, Barry, come over here. What's going on? Check it out. Kathy lost her favorite mug again. What a loser, right? You're holding her mug. Yeah, going on? Check it out. Kathy lost her favorite mug again. What a loser, right? You're holding her mug. Yeah, it's a prank, Barry.

It's funny. I don't know, Dean. She seems really upset. Oh, grow up, Erica. It's a joke. Uh-oh, here she comes. Don't blow it. Yeah, it's not in the dishwasher either.

Oh, no! That's like your favorite mug, too, right? Yeah, my mom gave it to me. Oh, that's terrible. I know, for my birthday. Yeah, sure. Have you guys seen my mug? He's playing york.

Nope, nobody's seen it. Hey, why don't you check over the fridge? Sometimes Maria puts the cups up there. Yeah, go search around up there. Okay, thanks Dean. Oh my god. I wish everyone could see how hard Yoram's laughing right now. It's so great. It's like it just happened. He's so happy. Oh my god, what a piece of human crap.

You're such a jerk, Dean. You're such a jerk, Dean. You're such a jerk, Dean. Grow up, Barry. Hey, check it out. Muggles is scratching her butt. Pause real quick. We're halfway through. So, Will says, look, she's scratching her butt. It cuts to her she's definitely not scratching her butt. That is his choice.

Also, there's a very funny move of him telling everybody else to grow up. I mean, not funny in that the audience is enjoying it. No, they're not. It's a nice piece of writing. Thanks. This is a character study. It's very nice. Yeah.

There's shades of surf meeting in this also. Oh, yeah. Shades. Also, it's a great wig. It is a great wig. Again, Farrell had a perfect head for wigs, but, you know, fantastic. Yes. It doesn't look impossible. It is a great wig. Again, Farrell had a perfect head for wigs, but you know, fantastic. Yes, it doesn't look impossible. It looks real, yet it's just turning him

into a different person. Yeah. I think when you're complimenting the wig though, you're definitely, there's something wrong with the sketch. Hey, check it out. Muggless is scratching her butt. Definitely not. No, she's looking for her stolen mug.

Well, she was scratching her butt. You just missed it. I can't watch this. Good, then don't. What's her problem? Hey! The audience does not enjoy this. That's my mug! Damn it, you blew it! Dean, did you take my mug?

So what if I did, Mugless? You can't do anything about it. Yes, I can. You're fired. What? You can't fire me. Dean, I'm your boss. Which was the reality of the situation. It's true. Okay, look.

We had a lot of fun today. No, no, we haven't. You're right. We didn't. We never have fun here. Because you guys are all big, fat-faced idiots. And if it wasn't for me, this place would be lame. Me. Dean. Just leave, Dean. You're done, man.

Ah, ow! I think I have appendicitis. Yeah, Dean, you don't have appendicitis. You always say that, and you never do. This time it's for real. It's a different kind of pain. Ow! Can I have your mug? No. Then no one can have it! Oh, damn it!

He tries to break it, and it does not. What is this made of? Is there a rebar in this? Oh, seriously! Feel my thigh! Oh, no! Why? Seriously, it feels weird and hard. Okay, give me the mug and get out, Dean. Fine. Fine. Here's your mug, okay? Seriously, it feels weird and hard. Okay, give me the mug and get out, Dean. Fine, fine. Here's your mug, okay?

Here's your mug. Right here. Holding it out of the window. Stay back. I will do it. I will drop this mug. So back off, Barry. Cross the room. Get out of the window. I am perfectly safe here. Your mug, on the other hand, is...

Oh! Oh! I am perfectly safe here. Your mug on the other hand is Well, he died so that's the moral he died a crazy crazy good fall by well Will had to hold a mug out a window and Then he had to fall out the window and somehow get the mug back into the break room. Oh, that was better than I thought it was. Yeah. I mean, here's the thing. I did have the protagonist of the sketch die.

So in a way, I do have a moral compass, you know? For sure. Oh, for sure. For sure, Yhorm. Thanks. For sure. If that was a pre-tape, that almost, that had a lot of I think you should leave hallmarks. Yeah.

Pre-dating I think you should leave hallmarks. Yeah. Predating, I think you should leave. Yes. A protagonist who's a bad person, who is wrong, and then has a series of excuses when his first main excuse doesn't work, starts going to being sick, starts going to that he's being attacked. Oh, I have appendicitis! Yeah. Feel my thigh. And then it's like, Barry, back off! And you're across the room.

Yeah. You know, the only move it didn't do is get sanctimonious But yeah, I'm doing a speech of like yeah to cry or to be like is this really where we're at people Can't have fun anymore, but he does yeah, he tries to turn it on everybody else saying it's the office's fault Ironically Yoram wearing and I think you should leave t-shirt right now Yeah, there you go. So I guess I'm a fan. So you're Biff, and you traveled to the future and stole their ideas? Yeah. Nicely done, buddy. Because that's how little Yoram knows about sports.

He could not bring any sports facts back in time with them. Future Yoram is like, take this sports almanac. He's like, come on, man. You bothered me. No one's going to care about that. But I just watched I Think You Should Leave, and it ties into a piece of my personal bio. No. No, obviously we all find that sketch very funny.

It's really good. Oh, man. I mean, it shouldn't have aired really good. And yeah. There were also some blocking issues and overlapping stuff that threw off the rhythm early on, I will say, but I don't think that was the difference. Abby was very good.

Abby was very good. And just because she'd never really over it. She just seemed sad without being dramatic about it. That's how it was in real life too. I mean, she wasn't that dramatic about it. Well, except for that woman never knew that you took it. Well, until now, maybe she's out there. You like, amelied her.

Yeah. Hey, hit us in the tits, especially if you're her. Probably because we had that poster. Maybe she was the one putting the posters up in our office as her slow revenge. God damn. That'd be crazy, because this was in LA, poster. Right. Maybe she was the one putting the posters up in our office as her slow revenge. God damn. That'd be crazy because this was in LA. Right.

Yep, she came to New York. I mean, Amelie would have. But the rest of her days. Put a train spotting. Yeah. Amelie famously loved to travel. Or maybe she just sent the gnome to do it. Maybe the gnome did it because the gnome travels a lot in that movie.

Haven't seen Amelie since the first time. How many times do you, be honest, how many times do you think you've seen Amelie? Two. Yeah. Wow, I've only seen it once. I remember stuff I watch. Yeah. You remember facts about the world.

I love Amelie. I loved it when I saw it, and I wonder if it would hold up. Yeah, I don't know. My kids were asking to see it, and I couldn't remember if it would be appropriate. I bet it is. Or give them nightmares.

Whimsy. Isn't there some sex stuff, though? French, they always gotta be sexin'. Frogs, tell them you're probably without condoms too. I feel like I have a memory of her being sexed, but she's just like... Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Being sexed.

That's right. Being sexed. Well, that's how I say it. When it's whimsical, I say being sexed. You remember the part in the movie where that French guy's pushing the leby? I think in French it's, uh, le-bay. Got it. Um, here's the thing- Will you guys mind terribly if we end this?

Well, yeah, here's the thing. Our lives? We're gonna end- A whole podcast? Yeah, we end this whole podcast. Yoram is color correcting his movie, so we gotta go. But here's the thing, I would like to make space to talk about the rest of this episode. Yes.

So maybe we'll just do that next time out. It's a really special one, it ends the season. You know, Keith had to go last time. Yoram, you can just go and we'll just recap that up. Yeah, I can bounce. Yeah, just sing him to Seth's Corner and then leave. Yeah. Okay, great.

Seth's Corner, this is the part of the show that actually made it on the show. Hey, take it away, Seth. All right, preemptive love you, Yoram. Love you, Yoram. Love you, Yoram. See you. Love you, bye guys. Love you, Yorm. See ya. Love you. Bye, guys.

This was a good show I remember the show a week Green Day I was looking at the rundown and I couldn't really remember any of it So I'm excited for you to remind me what things were. All right Well, we'll start over in incest corner. Cold Open, which was not the Cold Open address. It's Dick Cheney getting makeup on. There's a very sweet thing that happens in this Will Ferrell returning to SNL sketch, which is it's a big Daryl Hammond show.

And that made me really happy because Daryl did a lot of political stuff, but of course he had been a part of Will's cast and they had stuff they did together. And so it was nice that Daryl had a big show. And the first sketch is Dick Cheney getting his makeup, he's about to do Meet the Press, and then Will comes in as Bush, and it's a really nice Bush and Dick Cheney scene. Yes.

And there's some really funny stuff. It's mostly W telling him, stop doing so much press. I have been making some television appearances. Some? You're on TV more than that ShamWow guy. Well, I understand this visibility is a bit of a change for me. Yeah, no dud of the max, dick. I mean, I spent eight years with my face out there saying things I barely understood. While you were nowhere to be found. And he also at one point says like, I wish I could have had a vice president like Joe Biden

who is doing dumb stuff to make the president look smarter. Oh boy. Then a wonderful monologue. I believe he was, this was after he had done his George Bush one-man show. Oh, right. And so had been nominated for Tony, and that might have been the inspiration for Paul's monologue, which is he comes out very much dressed theatrically, like, you know, black clothes, scarf. And he does a scene from a play he wrote.

And it's a really like bad one-man show type play, and people have Irish accents. But then, like, three different times, he has to ask for the line. Knock, knock. Who's there? It's your son. It's your son. It's your son who? It's your son who... and I'm sorry, line? It's your son who loves you.

It's your son who loves you. It's your son who loves you. People keep laughing, because of course it's Will Ferrell and he keeps saying please don't laugh Which is a very funny move. A tough move to pull off You got to be Will Ferrell basically to do that and not have it backfire. Yes, of course Yeah, that's impossible move for anybody else. Yes. I feel like him and Zach Alvin Ackers are the only two people I've ever seen do that successfully You're right where people know they're supposed to keep laughing. Yes

then a You're right, where people know they're supposed to keep laughing. Yes. Then, a throwback, which rarely happened, and I wonder how it came about, but the commercial parody was the sketch where he's an attorney who sues dogs. Oh. Wade Blasingame. Blazingame. Yeah, Wade Blazingame, which is also the name of an old baseball player, and he literally off the top has to say, not that ball player. Oh, got it. He's a lawyer, and it starts with him saying,

would you let a person do this? And it's people getting out of a car with groceries, and Parnell runs over wearing a blue Speedo and just starts humping everybody. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember this. And then it's a bunch of other things where it's, again, Parnell's just a dude in a blue Speedo who's doing things dogs do, like humping legs

or digging a hole in the backyard. And the point of the lawyer is you wouldn't let a person do this, why would you let a dog? And he sues dogs. And the goal is obviously since you can't get money from dogs is just to have the dogs put down. And there's also a really nice detail where he has a very clearly a dog scratch scar across his face. Yeah, there's a backstory. You can tell this is why he hates dogs. Wait, Parnell is in it?

Well, it's old school. It's like a commercial parody from like 10 years ago. Oh, and it aired on this show? Yeah, it must've just been like, oh, Will's back, I love that, let's put that in. Crazy. Yeah, it was very fun to see it again. Yeah.

Is it right for someone to do this to you? Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,

hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Wonderful, always great. I hope there's no ants. We can ride bikes. A bicycle built for two? I put worms in my bed and slept in my bed and put a squirrel in my bed and mustard in my bed and then I ate them all, is that bad? Yes, that is bad. I do, do, do, do, do.

There is then a sketch that Klein and Solomon wrote called Mark. Do you remember, Mark? Oh my God, Mark, I quote Mark all the time. I quote Mark all the time, too. You gotta laugh. What's the sketch called? It's TNT, Mark is TNT.

Yeah, it's a Solomon Klein. Yeah, it's Solomon Klein. And you and Sublette. Yeah, I feel like I barely had anything to do with it. Basically, the idea is it's Bill Hader is Ernie Johnson, Keenan is Barkley, and while they're doing the halftime show, they do that thing they used to do in TNT where, like, the lower third,

they would come out a promo for a new show. And they started doing a thing where it wasn't just a photo. It was sort of a not live action, but it was like the actual footage of somebody moving around and pointing a camera. And his name was Mark, and he was a single dad with three kids. And the fun part was that Charles Barkley

was very taken with Mark. I like Mark. That's a lot of that. Oh, Mark's back. And he's got a baby in a dust buster. Hey Mark, you can't dust buster baby. Mark, what do you call a single dad with three kids and no clue Mark? from the creators of Jeff?

Mark is an instant classic. It was so fun, and the way they wrote it was just like, at this moment in time, those invasive ads for sitcoms over something else you were watching was so aggressive. It was like the network's new move to try this. And I remember, it was, I feel like it really was Solomon and Klein were like, we hate this and let's do one with Will. Yeah.

Mark's rules for life is the one I always remember. Don't get married, find a babysitter. And rule number three, Andy? You gotta laugh. Wow. Also, Kenan starts trying to talk to Mark. Oh, Steve! Hey, Mark, your casserole's on fire. He can't hear you.

I know, it's just playfulness. Hey, Mark, where's your oven mitts? I skipped over, again, Jeopardy, Jeopardy Amazing. Which one was it? So it's probably the last time he did it as Trebek before the 40th. Yeah. But you got Kristen Wiig as Kathy Lee Gifford. Just an exceptional observation on Kathy Lee Gifford.

Wiig did. It was so fun to watch. Tom Hanks as Tom Hanks in the middle. So that's your first killer cameo is that Tom Hanks is there. And then Sean Connery, who just fantastic. Old school, immediately so filthy. One of the best ones ever. What's some of the choice nugs in that one? You know, it always came back and it's like, let's check in on the scores.

And Sean Connery was negative 69. And Trebek says 69 wasn't your score. And he says, well, that's how I scored with your mother last night. Good. Is there a good therapist? There is. Well, first also Trebek says, my mother is infirm. She uses a walker.

And Connery says, she is a walker, a street walker. It was catch these men was the category. Catch the semen. Catch the semen. Yeah. Which is good, but I- It's okay. It's not great.

Catch these men. Catch these men,. Yeah. Which is good, but I- It's okay. It's not great. Catch these men. Catch these men, because even when he says catch these men, he says that is people on the FBI's most wanted list, so he needs to do a little bit of work. Oh, I see. I think it stayed in because it provided Sean Connery the chance after Catch the Semen to say is that what the mustache is for, Trebek.

That is worth it. Damn it. Then it cuts in Norm MacDonald's there as Burt Reynolds. Yes. Second killer cameo of the night. Oh man, that's so fun. God damn. Stacked.

It's stacked. It's also a real reminder, not that anybody needs to be reminded by how fucking funny Norm MacDonald is, but he does not overstay his welcome. He comes out of the end, Norm comes out of the end in Hulk hands and just sort of chases Trebek around. Oh, the killer though is the final jeopardy is just write a nonsense word. Mm-hmm. Write any word that's not a word that exists in the universe and you win. Yeah.

And Kathy Lee writes Hoda Kotb, so of course she doesn't get it. Hanks has a great pratfall where he falls down while he's trying to answer and bumps his head and breaks his own screen so we don't see his final answer. And then Connery writes what looks to be a nonsense word, and they have a sweet moment where Alex is like, I can't believe it, you won. And he's like, yeah, I thought you needed it. And he's like, thank you, friend.

Let's see what you wagered. And then when they reveal the wager, you see that the nonsense words at the top were just the top of a drawing. And it's Connery taking a shit on Trebek's grave. All right. Update, Polar's back for update. Another cameo.

Just for shits and gigs. Just for shits and gigs, season finale, Polar back for update. Wait, was this a season where she left Midway or am I a season off? At this point, I can't remember how long she's been gone. For baby stuff?

Is this when you guys do a really? We do a really? Yeah. My favorite thing about this update, though, other than her being back, I stole a previous era's writing and wrote, Will is Harry Carrey from Heaven. Oh, I remember that happening and being like, I can't believe I get to go out on the floor and watch him do one live. Yeah.

Because, yeah, that is one of the all-time things. It was really delightful. Yeah. We watched him as Harry Carrey on VHS tape that we had recorded, like, 25 times, 40 times. Like, we would just rewatch that episode, those old episodes. Getting, like, drinking and doing him as Harry Carrey was common. The moon was made of cheese, would you eat it? Mm-hmm.

I would. Ha ha ha. Tells me, he asked me if, uh, I think Manny Ramirez looks like the Predator Monster. Common the mood was made of cheese was he? Tells me he asked me if I think Manny Ramirez looks like the predator monster This is the time manner mirrors headlong dreadlocks And then there's a lot of talk about would you play the predator on a baseball team or would you be too worried? He'd eat all the other players Trust him, Seth. What? Hey, don't jerk me around, Seth. It's a simple yes or no question.

If the Predator Monster promised he wouldn't kill the other players, would you put him in the game? No. Good call, Seth. I mean, I think eventually his hunter instincts would be too hard to resist. Seth S And then I ask him about steroids and he says, I was recently talking to my roommate in heaven, Pete Rose, and I have to tell him that Pete Rose isn't dead. And he does admit that there

were some red flags that it wasn't Pete Rose, like the fact that he didn't know much about baseball and was Asian and never said his name was Pete Rose. Uh... just a wonderful time. Then there's a Hamilton. Oh, is there? There's a fantastic... Yes, it's a funeral. With Will and Will. Oh, yeah.

Funeral sketch. Absolute Murderers Row. Starts with Bill as the first person, again, Sudeika is doing an incredible job as the point guard of this sketch. He is a priest who is ending a funeral service, and before he can finish, first Bill comes up to interrupt and say one last remembrance, but it's basically that my uncle promised me his watch,

and the watch is missing, and so I'm gonna leave an Ugg boot on the coffin, and whoever stole the watch can just put it here. Then Will comes out and introduces himself as Graham Yost. And he says, no blood relation to the screenwriter of Speed, who is also named Graham Yost. This is Will Ferrell or Forte? Will Ferrell.

Ferrell. He's a no blood relation to the screenwriter of Speed, but I am currently on it. He is a standup who has flyers for his upcoming dates, and they're like really spread out. I have never met a lot of you, but I just wanna say that I will really miss Joseph, and I'll also be performing at the Comedy Shop

on May 29th, 30th, June 1st, 2nd, 5th, 7th, and 25th. If you'd like a flyer, I'll just leave a stack on the casket. I know that Joseph would have wanted you all to be there every night. Okay, great. Then Wig comes up as her character who rolls an oxygen tank. Mm-hmm, yes.

Just to say that there's a rodent... There's a rodent trapped in my floorboard, scuttling about. Anyone here who can kill it will be treated to the rewards of the flesh. That's worded a lot like Hamilton, but we're okay. Yeah. Fred comes out in his sort of ACDC look, like black shorts, jacket, tie, long hair. And he basically says to all his cousins, none of you said I could ever get a blonde.

We'll turn around. Oh, my God. And then Michaela's in the back as like a blonde. And he just is a real like, there she is, that's mine. I got a blonde. And then he says, check us out later, we'll be kissing. You know what that sounds like. And then he goes, it sounds like this.

And then he makes the noises of people making out. It's crazy that the musical Hamilton was more popular than this Hamilton. Yeah, there was a moment where it was touch and go, who's going to come out front. It was a real 30 rock studio 60 sitch. Yeah, yes. Then the less popular of the Hamilton's comes out. This year, I have seen so much death.

My cousin Earl died in my arms after a horrible run-in with a water taxi. Mother died two weeks later in an accident for which I'm currently being framed. But perhaps the most tragic death is the death of the American Dream because of the failed economic policies of Brock Hussein Obama. I say his middle name because it matters. -♪ Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Again, a lot funnier in the salad days. Oh, in the salad days. It is, yeah, it's a shame.

This guy is currently like Secretary of Transportation. Exactly. I really, when they did this, I would always be like, where is this coming from? I was so oblivious. Where are they getting any of this? And now you're like, oh my God, there's an army of these people. Hamilton was ahead of the curve in the worst possible way. He does have one of my favorite last lines Hamilton ever has.

As he walks out, he goes, I took the watch. God, he doesn't put it in the uggs, does he? And then, and then Maya Rudolph, it's now officially a reunion of Anne Golden era. The only two Anne Golden era members who have departed are back on the show. Maya back as a cameo comes out as Glenda Goodwin. Definitely a case where she was probably at the show ando comes out as Glenda Goodwin. Definitely a case where

she was probably at the show in last minute they slapped Glenda Goodwin. Glenda Goodwin, a very popular in-house, less memorable to the audience at large. She sings Amazing Grace about a Sasquatch. And I just feel like we should just probably play that now. Yes. That sounds right. Amazing Sasquatch, your powers are many. You walk through the woods and get photographed. You don't need a coat, but you do need a comb.

Because your body is basically a beard. That's very good. That's two. Way hair, ay hair, ay hair, ay hair, ay hair. Where's Carol? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Are the nachos?

Thank you so much, young lady. And then it closes with Will coming up to say, Will Ferrell to say that one of his show dates has been canceled, and he starts crossing them out on each and every one of the flyers. And then a closer to remember Summer Plans, which is the most Jost sketch, and he did sketches like this before. Do you remember Summer Plans, Sandberg?

I don't. It takes place in the Oyster Bar at Grand Central, which is how the... That's what the musical set looked like in that era. It was built to look like Grand Central, which is how the, that's what the musical set looked like in that era. It was built to look like Grand Central. So it could just take place kind of undressed. It just took place there. Yeah.

Okay. And it's basically Bill and Keenan and Darryl and Will, and they're talking about their summer plans, and they sort of work around the table. And Darryl says that he and his wife are are gonna go to Southeast Asia, Laos, Thailand, and maybe Vietnam. And then says to Will, you went to Vietnam once, right? And Will nods, but like really kind of staring off into the distance. And he says, what are your memories of it? And then Will stands up and starts singing Good Night Saigon. Oh my God. By Billy Joel. And he walks over and the sort of bar band

is you on the piano and Jason and Bill. And he sings the whole first verse of Good Night Saigon. And then it cuts to the other three guys. And Keena goes, wait, when did he go to Vietnam? And Bill says, like four years ago on a vacation and there's no joke other than Will heart-feltly singing, good night Saigon, but every time it cuts back to him, more people have joined the band.

So the entire cast is behind him the next time we come back and then the next time we come back, it is also Green Day is there and Tom Hanks and Amy and Maya and Norm MacDonald and then Rudd and Anne Hathaway, who must've just been there. And then Artie Lang, who must've just been there with Norm. Had to.

But I will say, I remember it the night of, I mean, it goes back to what you're saying, Keefe, about like the end of a fun year. Like it was so funny to just all be singing that, like, sort of, you know, that chorus. Yeah, it feels like the end of a season. End of a season. The only thing that would have made it better

is if the woman that Yoram stole her mug from was also there. Oh, I thought it would have been so nice. And she'd been like, from Josh's rehearsal. Yeah, that was a fair hit. Thank you. That would have been great if Yoram had her come out and he's like, and then at the end of the show,

you'll be a good night's high gone. And then he had to go up to her and be like, hey, it got cut. Yeah, Lauren's not gonna let you be a good night's high gun because it got cut. Oh, my God. But very cool. Very cool way to end a show, end a season. So this was what year? We're wrapping up a season then. Yeah, we are.

2009, so we've done three seasons, correct? Yeah. Yeah, is that it? Well, no, because there was the short season. Well, but I mean, we got done three seasons, correct? Yeah. Yeah, is that it? That's it. Well, no, because there was the short season. Well, but I mean, we got there in 2005, so that season ended 2006. And this is the end of the season 2009. So this is the end of your fourth.

One ended six, one ended seven, one ended eight, one ended nine. Oh, your math is better. I was, yeah. Well, it's time. I mean, that's advanced, pretty advanced stuff. I just did. I went six to nine.

There's a three, that's three different, but you're not wrong. That's not how years work. I mean, I'm gonna just be upfront. I tailed off pretty hard here. I got a little zonked. You got a little zonked. And by the way, you were offered an out by YORM,

and you're like, no, YORM, you leave, and then... Well, I knew you were excited to talk about this episode. Rehashing it, like, it's hard for me to care about it very much, because I wasn't in it. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's how you felt. Yeah. I think you'll feel differently. I think, you know what I think will happen? Yeah.

Is we'll play a lot of clips from the sketches I talked about, and people will like it. I agree. Well, they're gonna like it. It just, like, you know. You were zonked. It zonked me out. Yeah. Well, this was a tough episode for you, because, like, it was, I feel like you did a great job considering how much of a Yoram episode it was. I think you were happy at the time to get the week off.

I was. I'm just saying, pod-wise, I'm just like, Seth loved this episode. I'm gonna let this guy cook. Yeah. Thanks, bud. Yeah. But what are we going off to do this summer? I think maybe album two is what Yoram was guessing, but that might not be right.

Was this our one real summer that we just relaxed and like went to Europe and stuff? Did we have a summer that we relaxed? Yeah, we had one. Then it's gotta be this. Wait, Andy, you hosted the movie awards in May of this year, but that's when we're at SNL. How did we possibly do both? I mean...

Usually, I mean, I probably went straight into it. You guys probably had like two weeks. I don't remember. We'd have to really re-examine the timeline. But I think we could do a fair amount of talking about the movie, which is we made a bunch of fun shorts and people like, the cool guys don't look at explosions has always comes up still from people.

I consider it kind of a digital short, just not an SNL one. Yeah. You know what, we should talk about it when we come back the next episode. Exactly. All right, well, I love you guys about it when we come back the next episode. Exactly. Yeah. All right, well, I love you guys. Love you.

Love you, buddy. Talk soon. Later, Arnold. Later, Quades.
