Okay, let's get the energy up.
Micah, as a matter of fact, Micah, do you want to lead us in a prayer with an improv game?
Oh, yeah, that sounds appropriate.

Does that mean we all have to...

I need a suggestion of a god.
Sex.

I heard sex.
Yep, sex.
All right.
So, dear sex, I want to thank you so much for being a part of my life from time to time.
Orgasms.
I heard orgasms.
9-11 was an inside job.
Sometimes when you're having sex,
you realize 9-11 was an inside job.
Yeah, that's mine.
That was mine.
My suggestion.
Thanks very much. We've been the passionate
priests.
Amen.
Amen.
Great prayer.

Good impression of Ed, Ed.
Micah's scaring me.
Nailed it.
Yarr, matey.
My name's Ed. I hate such a pirate. Nailed it. Yarr, matey, my name's Ed.
I like that.
He's such a pirate.
Pirate Ed.
I feel like Ed is now a mixture of the Cookie Monster and Grover.
Mouth always open.
Unhealthy eating habits and he lives in a garbage can.
That is true.
Yeah, but he flies.
Super Grover.
Oh, yeah. Also, I don't think Grover lived in a garbage can. Didn't he. Yeah, but he flies. Super Grover. Oh, yeah. Also, I don't
think Grover lived in a garbage can. Didn't he?
No, that was Oscar.
Oh, Oscar lived in... Wait, but she said Oscar.
No, no. Cookie Monster. Cookie Monster
and Grover, not Oscar the Grouch.
Yeah. I stand corrected. Although,
I would probably throw an Oscar the Grouch in there.
Mmm.
There you go. Thank you, Michael.
Thank you so much Very good
We jammin'
Okay
We jammin'
I want to jammin' with you
Kevin just got back
I just got back from Jamaica
Oh I know man
I'm so sorry for your loss
Oh yeah
It was rough
Go ahead and do caricatures
Of my people
Bob Marley's not from Jamaica Where is he from? Go ahead and do caricatures of my people.
Bob Marley's not from Jamaica.
Where is he from?
He's one of ours.
He's an American man.
Right.
All right, Jackie, you're here.
Yeah, I'm here.
Man, I wish I could go to Jamaica for funerals.
That's fucking awesome.
How was it, man?
Terrible, man.
It was bad.
Oh.
My family, I was telling Ben, like I said, the same shit.
Anything they do is a test of endurance.
So everybody goes up there and is talking for way too long.
Everybody's trying to make all these jokes and fucking bullshit memories.
Yes, the church was hot, man.
I'm sure the church was hot. It was Jamaica.
It was hot as shit.
Which one of your family members killed the funeral the most?
Like, who did very, very well up there?
Who were you worried that they were going to take your spot as the comedian of the family?
Uncle Junior, man.
Oh, he nailed it.
Uncle Junior?
What were his bits all about?
Is there an Uncle Senior?
Well, it has to be.
He might be the one who died. We don't know.
Yeah, no, he was just saying a bunch of bullshit,
man. Jamaican shit, man. He was yelling. I just love
thinking about that hot as fuck church,
man. That must have been a nightmare.
Four and a half hours
sitting there.
Oh my god.
Yeah.
Did they have fans or anything?
No, man. We were just hot.
Did you have the playbills, though, to fan yourselves with?
We did have those.
Yeah.
That's nice.
So it was an open casket, a hot Jamaican funeral, and then was your grandfather's body just
melting in front of you?
Pretty much.
It was my grandmother, though.
Oh, it was your grandmother.
Yeah.
Sad.
Do corpses sweat?
They're more waxy than anything.
Do candles sweat? Ooh, more waxy than anything.
Do candles sweat?
Ooh, good question.
No, but they cry.
In my extensive experience with corpses,
I would say that when they're hot and they need to cool down,
they'll just bleed out of their eyes and chase you around the kitchen.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I imagine they must seep embalming fluid at some point.
Right?
There's got to be seepage.
Kevin?
Probably.
I'm not talking about your grandmother.
Your grandmother, I'm sure, is tight as an anus.
Hey, listen, man.
We're just being scientific.
Yeah, yeah.
No, we're just talking
about the science behind it.
But I'm sorry
that you had to go down there.
Oh, it's all good. All right. Kevin, you're here. Your grandmother is dead. Everyone feels bad about the science behind it. But I'm sorry that you had to go down there. It's all good.
All right, Kevin, you're here.
Your grandmother is dead.
Everyone feels bad about the whole situation.
All right.
You know what the most fucked up part about it is?
And this just shows how fucked up everybody is.
The day I found out that she died, like I was in the office and I found out she died.
And Jermaine was by me and Josh was by me.
And I told him and he was like, damn.
Oh, man, I'm sorry.
Then like five minutes later, he's looking up at me.
He's like, but your grandma is dead.
And my grandma is being played by Whoopi Goldberg on ABC.
That's great.
Jermaine sold his show to ABC.
I'm going to go audition for it tomorrow.
So am I.
Are we auditioning for the same role?
Not the bartender.
Is there a lumpy bartender?
Are you the bartender?
I'm going for the bartender.
I'm going to fucking rape your ass.
It's a man's role.
Kevin, it's a man's role.
Kevin, you have been in the audition process. I think we need to hear Jackie's best bartender impersonation
followed by Holden's.
Kevin, you are the judger.
Jackie Zabrowski, I want a whiskey sour.
No, I can't do it now because I can't give Holden my tips.
Oh, I got it.
What is it?
Ha ha, yeah.
If you're playing tonsil hockey.
Nice. Oh, no. That was great. He's got it, guys. Ha ha yeah If you're playing tonsil hockey Nice

That was great
He's got it guys
I don't even know where you're going for the audition
I'm amazed you guys are going out for the same part
Yeah I know
Why?

Clearly
It's a gay man's role
I mean it says bartender

No, because you took so long. Hold the naders.
Checking knees.
Shermanators.
Sherman.
Are you a masternator?
Find out very soon. I will be posting
the questions on
Facebook. I need photographic evidence.
Be a masternator.
Man, you are going to get pics you don't want to get.
Yep. They're going to be great.
Kevin, you're here. I'm here, man.
You're the only successful one.
Yeah. Alright.
I walked in here with a trench
coat on. No, that's true. I walked in here with a trench coat on.
No, that's true.
Okay. I just bought a trench coat.
All right.
Micah, you're very successful as well.
Thank you.
No problem.
Okay, Marcus, let's do a news story.
A father of three scribbled a penis on a wall at an Australian court to, quote, make his
children laugh.
Attaboy. in court to, quote, make his children laugh. Darren McMillan, 34, drew the 20-inch image and the word dictation in the presence of
his two daughters and son, aged between 9 and 13.
Magistrate Gerald Lurthbridge said the man who pleaded guilty to criminal damage at Ballarat
Magistrate's Court in Australia was setting a bizarre example to his young children.
20 inches.
That's a lot.
That's a big fake penis there.
That is a bizarre example.
Were there balls on the dick?
I think there were probably balls on the dick.
But they were on the top of the dick, so it made no sense.
They looked like mouse ears.
That's why it was a bizarre example.
That's funny.
Was there a little bow in between so it was a Minnie Mouse dick?
It was.
I've been really funny today.
Henry's here.
Ladies and gentlemen, Henry Zebrowski has arrived after his meeting with New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio.
You know what was weird is that when we were sitting down there, a man stabbed a pregnant woman in the lobby of Gracie Mansion, and then he gave that man $5.
Isn't that something?
I arrived.
I expected to take Ed's place.
Ed specifically texted me at 3.45 in the morning
to make sure I'd be here.
Good.
See, Ed neglected to tell the rest of us.
Cool, cool.
No, good, good.
I'm prepared.
Yeah, no, Ed is a great businessman
because that's when business interaction should happen
around 3.45 in the morning.
I got up to 26 text messages from him from about the times of 3 to 6 a.m.
Yep.
I was a part of that chain.
It's always nice to know when he's doing cocaine.
It was obviously last night.
But that's great.
So we have this news story that's happening.
But now this is actually a big story, Henry.
You got to meet with Mayor Bill de Blasio notoriously late. Was he late when you met with him uh yes he was okay how late was he
20 minutes that's his standard 20 minute time he is always like he's the mayor okay we were
shooting a sketch this is not like he was trying to fish an old woman out of a sewer grate nobody's
late to that as well but i mean he was he. He's late to a lot of memorials.
He's late to a lot of places where people want their mayor
to be there on time because they're mourning the death of their son.
Well, let's explore that sewer grate scenario.
I'm just saying
that sometimes their mayor is required
one out of every 20
person trapped in a sewer grate
story, he has to go take care of it himself.
Because it happens 40 times a year.
Absolutely. And so half that
time. The slats are too wide.
You being racist?
No, the slats of the group.
Kind of a funny joke. Henry, I can't help
but notice you're wearing some fancy new
boots. Yes, I am. Look at those things.
I am recently moneyed.
That's great.
Meeting with the mayor, making cash, spending that cash, keeping the system going.
So obviously, you know, the fans of the last podcast want to know, did you confront him about the reptilian agenda?
There was a room I was not allowed to enter.
And I asked why I couldn't go in there.
And they said, because you can't go in there.
And so I assume that's the fucking egg sacrum. Man, that's such a cop response.
It's like, well, you're not supposed to go in there.
He was there just like, well, it's closed for a reason, isn't it?
Did your hand burn when you touched him?
No, no, no.
We had a great rapport.
We laughed and joked together.
He laughed at my jokes.
That's great.
He's so tall.
He is quite tall.
Did you do cocaine with him?
I plead the fifth.
Did you watch his wife
have lesbian sex? I plead the fifth.
Did you meet Shirlane?
Shirlane was there, but she was
doing this thing, I guess, every Sunday
she plays human table where she walks around
on her fucking hands and knees and
they put drinks on her fucking knees.
That's so much fun. I wish I had a human table.
Sounds like a human tortoise
type things there. Really a shame.
Yeah. Really a shame that
that woman has that done to her.
She chooses it. Give me a fucking break.
She didn't choose it. Shirlane does anything
she wants to fucking do.
I heard that. Absolutely.
Marcus, so the guy is fine.
He's got the kids. There's a penis on the wall, and all is good.
Let's move on to another cereal pooper story.
Yeah.
I heard about this new guy.
We've got another cereal pooper on the loose.
Don't act so fucking jaded about it.
He's blasé about it.
Oh, my God.
Oh, another cereal pooper.
Marcus is sensitive today.
All right?
Marcus is not sensitive today.
Apparently Marcus is sensitive, but he's not sensitive.
Reality is a funny way of when you state it, it becomes real.
I am skinny.
That is the problem.
It is a collective reality and we all can see how fucking huge you are.
You monster.
Okay.
Nice barb.
Wow.
We are ribbing each other today.
Jackie, what's it like being Henry's sister?
I love it.
We just laugh and we laugh and we laugh.
We do have a good time.
Yeah.
Sometimes.
Yeah, when I'm not banging dad.
Weird I even said it.
That is funny.
It made my ears go chalky.
Don't like that I thought that.
Yeah, I'm upset you said it.
Who plays the cop and who plays the prisoner?
No, Henry plays the nightstick.
Oh.
And we call my daddy the holster.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, I'm still upset about it.
I don't want to keep talking about it.
He's pulling on his hips.
He's pulling on his hips.
He has no hips.
Same body.
Right.
It'd be like me fucking myself.
Right, yeah.
Which you would love.
Ooh, God, I'd treat me fucking right, because I know exactly how to suck my dick.
Cool.
Little poopy Zebrowski.
Very cool.
I'm done.
Bringing a lot to the table here, Henry. I love it. You met with the mayor. He's discussing. A lot poopy Zebrowski. Very cool. I'm done. I'm done. You're bringing a lot to the table here, Henry.
I love it.
You met with the mayor.
A lot of specifics there.
That's awesome.
What a roller coaster of a day you've had.
Yeah, met with one of the most powerful people in New York, and then you just equated yourself
to a nightstick that was going to be injected into your father's butthole.
He's a hug of a bug.
There are thousands of people.
I really hope that I bring
de Blasio down.
It's for his charity, the video.
Oh, is it? What's his charity?
Inner Circle, which is good and fucking
mysterious. What? Inner Circle?
AIDS kids?
Diabetes.
Diabetes.
Why did your management think that you were the one that should meet him?
Didn't even get that from a management.
Got him from a random dude.
Sent me the email.
Thought it was a prank until I showed up at Gracie Mansion this morning.
I can't believe you were at Gracie Mansion.
I went inside of there.
What did it smell like?
It smelled like Dinkins.
It still smells like Dinkins. It still smells like Dinkins.
I think so.
Oh, yeah.
Wait, what does the Inner Circle do, though?
Inner Circle is a charity that's been around for, like, literally 100 years,
where every year they do, like, a correspondence dinner
where every mayor of New York ever goes and people make fun of them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like a white tie event.
What's it giving
money for? That's why I said AIDS kids.
It gives it to the next mayor.
It's money that
is built up that it just gives it to
the next mayor and they can't spend it.
This is the most sold out thing
you've ever done. You started a sitcom
that was a rom-com
sitcom. It's for kids who have
taste blindness or something. It's for kids who have taste blindness or something.
It's for something fucking dumb.
That would be awful.
They eat cake and they think it tastes like burger.
Yeah, and they're like,
Yeah, but they don't know what burger tastes like.
Exactly, because they're like, you're just saying fucking words,
Timothy. Whatever. We can't trust
you anymore, Henry. You've seen the
inside of the beast. Now you're in the inner circle.
You've become one of them.
Yeah, dude. I got fucking money for that.
I actually did, and I donated it to the charity.
Marcus has been Googling this for the past three minutes,
and he's on page six now.
I'm not coming up with nothing as far as who they are.
All I know, okay, one, it's called the Inner Circle Society.
They said something like it's a shade beyond human
and that there are nine dimensions and we're of four and i was like what and he's like there's
nine elements that we sell everybody this for but there's nine elements to all reality and i was
like there's something called ultra plasma and i was like what and then he was like we have granola
bars so fucking stuck to that so was this a good episode up until I arrived?
No, it's been awful.
It's been terrible.
It's probably been one of the worst episodes we've ever recorded.
This has been an awful episode.
We don't know what we're doing, man.
No one knows what we're doing.
Yeah, we're trying so hard to riff.
I liked it!
Yeah, Eddie!
That's here.
So, that's good.
It's been awful.
Yeah, I would say, I mean, honestly, this is probably, what do you think?
Maybe our top five worst? Top three worst. Yeah. I would say I mean honestly this is probably What do you think maybe our top five worst
Top three worst
But last week's was like technically
Like unlistenable
Last week's yeah
Marcus had to cut out a bunch of the racist things
No no that was only because
Of the context of the video
Of the episode
So because of the context of the Oklahoma State
University video Where they were saying racist things on the bus, we had to cut out a lot of your segments, Henry.
No, just one specific segment that was a joke I told.
How deep into this atrocity are we?
It's like, what are we doing?
What are we doing right now?
We're about like half in.
Whoa!
Just got to make this another episode. You know what, Marcus? Let're about like half in. Whoa! Oh, yeah, we just got to make this another one.
You know what, Marcus?
Let's do another news story.
Police are looking to the public for help identifying a man believed responsible for a series of bizarre vandalisms in one Akron, Ohio neighborhood over the last three years.
This guy's a fucking poser.
Oh, yeah?
He's believed to be...
Yeah!
Yeah, fake enthusiasm!
Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!
Hold in your best fake
enthusiasm right now. Oh, yeah!
That's right, Kevin.
Oh, yeah!
Yeah,
baby! That's good.
Well, this cereal pooper
is believed to have left as many as
100 defecations
at various locations around the
How'd they tie all of them together to the same man?
Well, you know what?
If you'd shut up and let me speak.
Oh, yeah!
Marcus is very sensitive tonight.
Marcus is sensitive tonight.
Marcus is insanely sensitive tonight.
Very sensitive.
I had too much coffee this morning.
It's just carried on to the rest of the day.
We need to put some oil on his hands.
Do we have any oils?
Should we cancel it?
Yeah, should we just cancel the whole
thing? We're in it. Maybe if I talk
backwards, I'll make more sense. Can you start
doing that? Can you say it?
Those fucking words.
No, he was. You asshole. That was a funny joke.
I say we try this oiling up Marcus's
hands thing and start all over.
See how good it is.
It should make a difference.
We'll slide on Marcus around the room.
Yeah.
Welcome to the Roundtable of Gentlemen, everybody.
On today's episode, Marcus is full of oil being slid all around the room.
I've got rug burns.
Okay.
Nope.
Just as bad as it was before.
Well, this guy shat on cars, front lawns, and even children's toys.
My middle name is Thomas. Isn't that something?
And that's actually true.
Henry Thomas.
You know what's amazing?
Oh my God.
Can I do ask a serious question? How do they all tie it to one man?
Well, let's see here.
They tie it to one man because they have
surveillance footage.
So this guy, is he wearing a mask or is he just wearing the same outfit or something?
Here's a picture of him.
Just taking dumps on cars.
Oh, his testicles are on that car.
Yeah.
And it is snowy outside.
Man.
We used to take dumps on cars all the time when we were in middle school,
and it was a great revenge on the wealthy people of Stevens Point, Wisconsin.
Can you feel this guy is doing a very good job?
This guy is not in middle school.
This guy is middle-aged.
Yes.
Wow, he's got some fucking hangers, huh?
He's got nothing else going on.
Is that Ed?
No, he doesn't have the hair.
That guy's got some muscular legs.
That's like a horse leg.
Well, he's got a lot of squatting practice.
This is my question.
Is this like a Dadaist thing?
Is this an anti-government thing?
Or is this just a sh and non-things thing?
I think it's a shit and non-things thing.
This guy's a poser.
By definition, he's not a poser.
By definition, he is and his pose is a squat.
But he's actually shitty.
I mean, if he was a poser,
he would pose and not shit. He's a doer.
No, no, because he's biting off the other
guy's fucking shtick.
No, the other guy was pooping on slides.
He's a poser and a doer.
He squats and doos.
Oh, he doos.
Yeah, he loves doing good.
I agree.
The other guy was just shitting on slides, which is very funny because then kids go down
them theoretically.
Extra slippery then for him.
He knows what he's doing.
He don't get thighs like that from pretending.
That happened to me one time.
It's some real shit.
I slid down a slide and threw a lot of bum pee.
Really?
How'd that make you feel?
Bad?
How old were you?
19?
I shouldn't have been on that.
Yeah, you were told to be on the fucking slide.
That's your fucking problem.
You're the poser.
I was posing as a child.
How do you shit at that angle, though?
One resident said that the guy defecated on their vehicle eight times since last fall.
What did he do wrong?
The person whose car got shit on did something wrong.
I feel like the only way I could respect him is if he shat in the form of the words,
Kiss me, I'm Irish, on the car.
I mean, I love it. I feel
like the poo-poo is the best revenge on the 1%.
Everyone wants to go break their
windows and do really vandalism
and really drastic
things. Legislation could be...
Of course, we could actually go through the
government and the courts and things, but
really, the best revenge is to
simply go back to
way back in the day and just use your human dookie.
I mean, it's what prisoners use.
I like human shit as a form of revenge.
It's the best weapon.
It's as old as time.
We all have it.
We all have to do it.
We all do it every day.
The key is the placement of it can ruin someone's whole month.
Yep.
That's true.
That's the beauty of it.
I did actually earlier today on my way here saw an old man's penis.
What do you mean?
Because he took, I think he had taken a bunch of the cans specifically out of my trash because
our can, like we constantly fill with beer cans.
Right.
So our like recycling bin is a gold mine for the homeless people in the neighborhood.
But he had our-
It's a nickel mine.
I mean, it's a good amount.
He was outside of our apartment and and it was, like, in our bag.
The bag was open, and he had his dick in his hands, and he was pissing inside of the bag.
So why?
He's putting money on money, you know?
Why did he do that?
Also, it was just so wrinkled.
I'll make a water balloon.
Yeah, describe his penis.
It was, like, he had a very hairy white bush.
And the man looked at me like he was sad about what he was doing.
He knew what he was doing.
But it was still light out, looking at me, holding his dick, pissed it into a bag of cans.
And was the hair on the top of his head gray as well, or just the bush hair?
It was white.
No, it was all white. He had almost no hair.
Do you still make money on the cans?
I don't know.
You can put those in the machine.
Why did he look me in the eyes though?
His expression was
that of apology.
I have to do this.
You don't have to do this.
The health of the world
lies in the balance.
He was so upset with himself.
He should have been.
He fucking should have been.
Well, I guess this is somewhat, I guess this is more of a service to the community because
he's pissing in the bag rather than pissing on the street.
I'd rather piss on the street.
Between two cars so nobody sees your floppy old man fucking bookmark.
Oh, it was so flaccid.
It looks like it'd be run over with a car.
Well, you never know when you're gonna
find your wife. You never know when you're gonna
meet her. I was in the financial district, and
I was on the phone, and I see these two, like, well-to-do
sort of southern women with a big New York
map walking down the street, and it was literally
I hear them go like, oh, God!
Oh, my God! And then look, and there's a man
covered in
what can only be soot.
Fully, and he was visibly,
let's be generous and say mentally handicapped.
And he had his dick in his hands
and he was pissing all over a trash can.
His pants were around his ankles
and his dick in his hands.
And he had that same look on his face of the,
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.
Which I think is just like,
it's like sad
It is sad
Well I told you about the guy taking a shit
I was walking up the stairs out of Times Square
Off the inn
And there was a dude you had to walk right by him
He was in that tiny corridor when you're walking up the stairs
This big fat guy taking a shit
And it was so gross
And it was just profuse
It was just coming out
Was he giving you sorry eyes?
No no no you know what he said?
Because I think some lady ahead of me went like,
oh my God, you know?
And he went, no one cares about me, lady.
And it was like the most disturbing image I've ever seen.
Now I can laugh at it, but I mean,
I ran up those stairs like a squirrel up a tree, dude.
I saw an old man in a vestibule of a CVS all covered his own
shit, and he gave the same story. I just hate that.
I just like, you know what? If I ever
get to a point when I'm 80, I shit my own...
Be happy about it. I literally just go like...
I'd rather see that guy.
Yeah, I'd rather see that guy. I mean, he didn't give a...
The guy I walked by did not give a fuck.
Obviously not. No, no. He was very
easygoing. And everybody was just like...
Because it was in a position. He was in a position where you wouldn't know he was there.
You wouldn't know to go to a different stairwell until you were in too deep.
Until you were already halfway up his hair.
A runny dookie, a solid dookie.
What's the diet?
Runny, runny, runny, brother.
Oh, man.
Yikes.
Speaking of runny poop, this guy in the story is standing on the ground and bent over the hood of a coupe.
A 2004 Dodge Neon.
Thank you.
Coupe rides with poop.
Which is a great car to take a dump on.
Oh, I agree 100%.
But I feel like in a more effective way is to get that poop nice and runny.
Yeah.
And to stand on the hood of the car and poop at the top of the windshield.
Ben, did you?
You don't want to vandalize the car.
You don't want to vandalize the car.
He did take it a little further.
He also smeared excrement on door handles and even entered the unlocked cars and pooped inside.
Oh, that's good.
That's the ticket.
There's coming a real Lex Poother over there.
I won't laugh.
That's a good super villain name.
Although that's a great idea.
I feel like that's the way to get away with it.
You shit on the ground.
You take the shit and put it behind
the door handles of the car.
You shit in an icing bag.
And you fucking make
designs in a fucking icing bag.
And you can get the tips.
And you can do all the shit you want.
You can do the swastika like you really want to do. You can do a fucking smiley face And you can get the tips. And you can do all the shit you want. You can do the swastika like you really want to do.
You can do a fucking smiley face like you really want to do.
Or you shit at home and stay there.
Yeah, that's another idea.
No, but you want to dump on the car and you want to make it a solid dump
so the person knows that you meant it and you ate for it
and you were prepared for it.
I feel like I'm missing out on something.
Like, I should be dumping on a car.
We should.
I mean, you had to do it in middle school.
If you did it any older than that, you're unreasonable.
I could get up on a car.
I don't know, Jackie.
You're having a hard problem sitting there right now.
Can you imagine me even trying to get up on the hood of a car?
I mean, the best place to take a dump is inside of the car, right underneath the passenger seat or the driver's seat.
So then they have to dig down there.
What's the smell?
And then they get the shit on their hands.
That's impossible to do.
See, I say sunroof, man.
Because you can lay down.
You can lay down and take a fat shit, man.
Oh, yeah.
Or the glove compartment, because you can sit and relax.
And then it's all over the insurance and the registration
and they're going to have to deal with that for months to
come. That's a way
to show them. But at Sunroof, man, you can do it
while you're getting your dick sucked. Oh, true.
I didn't even think about that. You can get
your dick sucked while you're on
top of the car.
That's the best part because all
you have to do is find a broken woman
and have her crawl up in the hood of a car.
Sure.
Why are you looking at me?
I'm not looking at you because I fucking have...
I believe in you, Jackie.
Thank you.
And I think that you could be president if you could fucking get your shit together.
Okay, well, let's not bring Danny Olenek to that.
Danny wants nothing to do with this.
Oh, Mexico.
And he wants nothing to do with this.
Is that part of the episode where we sing Walking on Broken Glass?
I love that song. I'm just saying if we...
You could also, with the sunroof thing, you could get fellated while wearing like a bronze fedora.
Get your fucking dicks out, dude. You can wear whatever you want.
You can wear anything you want.
Look, you can do whatever you want.
You know what you do is you rent a car
and you set it all up. You rent a car,
you have a driver drive you in front of important
locations, places you want to shame
like the fucking Lego store.
Why the Lego store? I'm just saying
the M&M store. You go out in front of there,
do it in front of there
with one of the big fucking head masks
like you're fucking the green M&M,
getting blown, taking a dump inside your own fucking car.
Oh, with one of those golf club extenders for your GoPro.
While you're pooping.
That would be great.
The selfie taken while doing the poopy on the car.
Oh, man.
It needs to be done.
I was just at a thing where people were taking a bunch
of pictures and this old lady goes,
Hey everybody, let's take a groupie.
Isn't that
cute?
She was like, let's take a groupie. She kept saying
let's take a groupie.
Kevin, your thoughts on groupie?
That shit hurt me to my soul.
Yeah, I want no parts of that.
You mean take a goddamn picture.
That's what you mean. You mean a fucking picture.
You know, here in the year 2045,
the seas will swallow the cities.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Walking on broken glass.
We should probably do something about climate
change, but that's not
for us to solve.
I think it is for us to
fucking solve. You should have talked to de Blasio about it, you solve. I think it is for us to fucking solve.
Well, how do you solve it?
You should have talked to de Blasio about it, you asshole.
I tried to talk to de Blasio about it, but all he wanted to talk about was getting his dick sucked by his wife.
I'm sure she's done that quite a bit.
Charlene.
I doubt it.
She has never touched him.
She's never, ever.
No, they have those two beautiful children.
Well, right.
That doesn't require him touching her
nor her touching him.
There's ways to procreate without human contact.
They are sexy children, though.
His daughter is hot.
I think they fuck each other.
They're not as young, right?
No, Dante's 18.
Yeah, they're teens.
What's wrong with you?
Yeah, a girl's got a dream.
That's right. I guarantee you, with you? No, they're hot. Yeah, a girl's got a dream. That's right.
I guarantee you, if you met Dante, did you tell Bill about Jackie?
And maybe Dante and Jackie could go out sometime?
I wanted him to consider me like an orphan of the city so he could take care of me.
You were like Pip.
What?
Pip from...
South Park.
Charles Dickens.
Oh, Charles Dickens.
Great expectations. Great expectations.
Great expectations.
I don't read books with authors that names sound like tiny cocks.
Yeah, Henry.
That's funny.
Yeah, man.
So when are we starting the episode, Marcus?
When do we start?
Like 20 minutes from now.
Hold on.
That's why I don't read John Grisham.
Grisham. Grisham.
Humorous and funny.
Let's start it up.
Everything is just working today.
Shit is just hitting.
Yeah, man.
I'm feeling on top of the world.
Marcus makes it work in the ending.
In the ending.
He puts the jokes where they go.
But what about the live stream?
Oh, it's fine.
How live stream people do it?
How are they?
Have they given up yet?
Are they asking for forgiveness?
No.
No, everybody's lonely.
They're looking for voices in the dark.
No, our fans are not lonely.
They have a bunch of different loves.
Well, let's hear it on the chat.
Who's the saddest fan?
Who's the saddest fan?
Yeah, who on the chat is the saddest fan?
Come on.
Saddest fan and why?
And then I want to hear the happiest fan.
We have two sad fans in the room.
They are not sad.
They're having a great time.
Here's what we do, man.
Here's how we save this episode.
We put it up.
Roundtable, gentlemen.
Whatever episode this is.
And then we just upload Benny and the Jets on loop for an hour.
Benny and the Jets. I love an hour. Benny and the Jets.
I love that song.
Everybody will be happy, man.
I have a confession to make.
Roundtable confession.
I'm the Riddler.
My real name is Enigma.
All right.
What's wrong with you?
All right, you're off the show.
Riddle me this, Ben.
How long is a pocket watch?
Shut up.
I hate this.
I hate this.
Bring back, what's his name?
Mexican Pete.
I think we've got a sad fan.
There's a guy that's drinking a Mickey's in Lubbock, Texas right now by himself.
It's a viewhead, not living the dream.
I was so excited to come on the podcast today.
It's been months since I've been on.
It's the first time that the live chat's been months since I've been on.
It's the first time that the live chat has been on since I've been here.
And I got to do the prayer.
And I got to sit in for somebody.
And then Henry comes in.
That's the whole thing.
Ruined it all.
Thank God.
He made it much worse than it was going to be.
That's the thing.
My goal is to take it at one level.
I bring it down about three, four other levels
to the point, I just want it to be
like a, you know when you got a toothache
and you just kind of jam your finger
in it? Yeah.
You're the finger. I'm the big
fat stinky weedly finger.
Hard rooty tooth.
That's right, Henry, you ruined it.
Ice came all the way hard, rooty tooth. That's right, Henry, you ruined it. I came
all the way here
from the mayor's office.
From Gracie.
Where is Gracie Manor?
It's on this weird floating fucking
island above New York City.
That's fucking awesome.
So you went to heaven today?
Yeah, I went to heaven today.
The best thing is...
What's that, Michael? I was going to ask if heaven was going... to heaven today? Yeah, I went to heaven today. The best thing is it's just...
What's that, Michael? I was going to ask if heaven
was going...
That's a helicopter sound.
Walking on broken glass.
Everyone loves that song.
Riddle me this.
I don't.
Is Annie Lennox Pee Wee Herman?
No, she is not.
No, no, no, no.
Bill Hicks is Alex Jones.
Annie Lennox is not Pee Wee Herman.
I saw this old fat woman reading a Bill Hicks bio on the train today,
and I was like, good for you.
So, Marcus, what's the next news story?
Let's go to India for our next news story.
Over to India.
A groom had to return home without his bride from a marriage hall in India
after he failed to solve a simple mathematical problem.
The bride-to-be got suspicious of the groom's educational qualifications.
Her cousins asked the groom to solve a simple mathematical question.
What is 15 plus 6?
Ooh, that's tough.
The groom failed to give the correct answer, telling her 17,
and the girl refused to marry him.
I love it.
How did he put on his shoes?
15 plus 6.
Micah, what's the answer?
If you answer correctly, you could be a husband
the answer is 21
what is the
nailed it
those cousins are fucking
dicks
what kind of person
what kind of human
does that to a man
it was an arranged marriage
and they showed
up. Arranged marriages are great.
Well, she showed up and met the guy.
Did he say he was a genius?
He did not
come saying that he was a genius, but it was very
obvious when he showed up that he was a bit of a
dullard. Riri, was he a
one of them? Was he a
Oh, is he a softhead?
He could be. Was he a Is he a soft head He could be
Was he a dullard
He might be a dullard
We don't know specifically what kind of dullard
Sponge head
Possibly a sponge head
Wouldn't a sponge head be someone who retains a lot of knowledge
Nah nah nah
I'm talking about dry ass sponge head
Dry sponge head
Oh okay yeah
You ever hear that if you put a sponge in a microwave I'm talking about dry ass sponge heads. Oh, dry sponge heads. Yeah, dry sponge heads. Oh, okay, yeah.
I'm talking about, you ever hear that if you put a sponge in a microwave, it dissolves all the bacteria on it?
Oh, I've done it.
Yeah, you do that.
I've been doing that, but sometimes if you put it in for too long, it burns the sponge.
I hate you.
You should try putting it in the oven.
That's the worst. That's the worst thing I've ever seen on a podcast.
I am on fire, guys.
Here's the thing.
Ben's left the room. Ben's left the room
Ben has left the room
either to go to the bathroom or just wallow or whatever
but it has devolved into us
just laughing
There's nobody to be like, hey guys
let's do a thing
Let's move it along
There was the bride and India
Bam!
Hey!
That's the most fun
everybody's ever been to.
Hello, I'm back.
We had a really great conversation.
It was about sponges.
Jackie burned a sponge.
Jackie burned a sponge.
I love doing this show every Sunday.
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.
I was just in the bathroom. I had to take a pee-pee
but while I was pissing in the sink I looked at my abs
In the mirror and I don't have one yet
So I've lost some weight
You pissed in the sink?
What?
No no no
Why are you pissing in the sink man?
No I wasn't pissing in the sink
This is a public establishment
This is a restaurant
No no no
You misunderstood me You misunderstood me established me. No, no, no. I wasn't pissed. This is a restaurant. No, no, no, no, no. Right there where chefs have to wash
their hands
in that fucking
bathroom.
Okay.
Let me read you this.
So I was in the bathroom.
I was pissing in the sink
and I was looking
at my ass in the mirror.
You didn't fix it.
I'm about to cut that out,
you know.
I'm peeing in the garbage can.
That's not...
I bet we were just
talking about
homeless people. Are you fucking a bear? I bet we were just talking about sad, homeless people who piss in garbage cans. That's not that. We were just talking about homeless people.
I bet we were
just talking about
sad homeless people
who piss in garbage
cans.
I thought this was
a satirical podcast
where the words
that come out of
people's minds
are brains are
supposed to be
humorous and not
necessarily telling
the truth.
I pee in the
toilet.
Thank you,
Ben.
We all appreciate
it here.
No problem.
You have to say
that now as a
caveat every single
time you go to
the bathroom.
Why would I piss in the sink?
Because you're an animal.
Yeah, you're tall enough.
He's so tall.
I can't piss in the sink.
I'm six foot tall.
I'm still not tall enough to piss in the sink.
You know what I've been doing?
I did not realize.
I take the top of the toilet off, and I squat over it, and I let my dick dangle down, and
I pee into the tank.
You know what I do is I kneel in front of the toilet and I put my
penis on the rim of
the bowl and then I just smash!
Smash the seat on top!
Smash it!
That's how you make the milky milk.
What I do is I get on my hands and knees and I
don't pee, I just drink the water.
So I think we all know how to use
the bathroom.
We've all been in the bathroom.
I'm the asshole.
I apologize.
The point is we're all using the toilet, man.
I got to say that.
I'm the animal.
I'm sorry.
I'm a savage.
It smells illegal in there, though.
I do have to say in the creek bathroom.
Yeah.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
It's all right.
They're not making tacos next to the fucking bathroom.
They are.
Yes, not.
They are.
They're on two separate floors.
They are.
And, of course, it's a great restaurant.
Come to the Creek and the Cave whenever you want California-style Mexican.
Okay, Marcus.
It's California-style Mexican.
That's what it's called.
You just said it in such a derogatory way.
How did that sound bad?
I didn't take it derogatory.
I took it in a way that my penis sucked up into my pelvis.
It was like California style.
Give it a take two, Ben.
Come on.
Sell the rest of it.
Put a smile behind it and make it pop.
He's smiling.
Put some energy into it.
Come on down to the creek and the cave.
Try some California-style Mexican.
That was better.
Yeah, that was good.
The president's feedback is that the announcer sounds like he has a gun to his head.
So we're going to...
He's perfect.
Perfect.
Good.
All right.
Well, what did I miss while I was taking my traditional...
Spongebob.
Spongebob.
I told you.
I told you.
That was it. Jackie burned a sponge in the microwave told you, Jackie burned, that was it.
Jackie burned a sponge in the microwave.
I learned a lot. If you put a sponge in the microwave,
it gets rid of bacteria, but if Jackie put it in too long.
Oh, we're reliving the conversation? Yes, of course.
We have nothing else.
I was reminded that that is a thing that
you can do. Yeah, man, zaps it out.
I just put the sponge out in a fucking stoop.
Alright.
And that's another way to handle it.
Nature take care of it.
I just buy a new sponge.
Anybody else buy a new sponge?
Why is there gotta be dish soap
and there's also hand soap?
What is this?
What is this?
You gotta go get different types!
Aggressive observational comedian.
Why I gotta have toothpaste
and fucking hair gel?
One's for the teeth
and the other was for your teeth.
Yeah, but he wants to deal
with all the bathroom holes.
I got a shower drain
and a toilet hole.
But you're supposed to use them
for different...
Is there a difference
between Bassetrace
and ointment and aspirin?
Because I can't tell.
Y'all ever think about how none of us have a future?
You're the only one that has a future.
We're riding on your coattails.
Jamaican be crazy, man!
Let's have a moment of silence for Jackie's most recent Jamaican dialect.
Oh, come on.
That was fun.
That was fun.
That was fun.
That was fun.
I don't know.
I just want to go to Jamaica.
It's a bad t-shirt, though.
You date a girl named Jackie?
I just replaced her?
No, they broke up.
No, we broke up.
Oh.
Man, I am failing on all accounts.
Hey, Barnett, I like your dinosaur shirt.
But then, Holden, you have something to say about that shirt.
Riddle me this.
Right.
What do you call a female mannequin?
What?
A bitchikin.
Okay.
Well, that's just kind of me.
You just call the shirts women and mannequins.
You just call the show, dude.
You just call the show.
No, no, no. Jesus Christ. That's a new piece of shit. Why? No, no, no.
Let's keep going.
I'm sweating.
It's time for another news story.
No.
Okay.
Really?
I don't know.
Another one?
Is it a riddle?
Oh, no.
It's not a riddle at all.
How is a raven like a writing desk?
I feel like I'm in purgatory.
It's the Mad Hatter.
Well, there are people sitting here watching us,
former fans of the show.
No, no, no.
They've evolved into just having a conversation with each other.
Every show in the history of entertainment has filler episodes.
Right.
And this is a filler episode of Roundtable.
Okay.
I would say Alf
does not have a single filler episode.
Neither does Coach.
Every minute
of that show is
necessary.
Craig T. Nelson, one of the
best coaches of all time.
Him, Ditka, and the other guy from
Rocky. Yeah, that guy.
I meant to say cheers.
All right.
One of the greatest series
finale of all time.
It went somewhere.
I needed to say it.
I need you guys to know
I've never seen Coach.
Sometimes if you go
and you take a sponge
and two minutes is pretty much where you want it to be at.
One minute ain't going to cook the germs like it needed to.
It's the two and a half minutes.
I'm sorry.
You're going to get yourself a singed sponge.
I didn't.
That was great.
Thank you for talking, Jackie.
I don't have any more brain cells anymore.
What happened to you?
I am a shell of a human being.
We had a show.
I have every Sunday.
We had a big show last night at 11.
We continued to get very drunk after the show.
She had to work all day.
She's got to go back to work after this.
That's what's going on with Jackie right now.
You have to go back to work?
I'm getting drunk, baby.
I'm living la vida, Jackie.
God damn
now you're back
it just keeps getting worse
God I love that
alright
alright
you don't know
how much I love that
oh that's so cool
it's time for a segment
from home McNeil
no let's do another
news story
one more news story
one more news story
the 75
new fables
the 75 year old woman we'll do them at the same time yeah alright I got an idea New fables. The 75-year-old woman-
We'll do them at the same time.
Yeah.
All right.
I got an idea.
New fables.
The 75-year-old woman who killed a rabbit.
Unlistenable.
New fables.
God.
We actually had an unlistenable episode last week.
I listened to it.
I don't know.
I couldn't listen to it.
To read books.
I don't understand this segment.
I got an idea.
I got an idea. Here. I don't understand this segment. I got an idea. I got an idea.
Here.
I got a bunch of ideas.
Can I have one of them?
Yeah.
Okay.
You got a dollar?
What is this segment?
Marcus, do the news story.
Simpsons episode.
Shut up, Holden.
What's your favorite?
You're done.
Holden, Marcus, news story.
How about we all get one punchline for this news story and then we move on?
Thank you, Mike.
And we all have to do it.
Each one of us has to say one thing about the news story.
One at a time.
And it's got to be unique, and it's got to have that strong K at the end, so let's go.
Puck.
Okay, but it has to be read first.
The 75-year-old woman who killed a rabid raccoon that attacked her at Lewis Ginter Botanical
Garden said she did what she had to do.
Cass Overton, a garden volunteer, credited her Tai Chi training and meditation for keeping her calm and focused when the rabid animal grabbed her leg.
She said, I was looking up birds because I am a birder.
And when I looked down...
A birder?
A birder.
Okay, but I can't say it.
Not a raccoon.
This animal was coming at me already.
I started to walk backwards and it lunged at my leg.
Overton said the rabid raccoon grabbed her pant leg and started to scrape her knee.
She tried to back away, but realized that wasn't going to work.
That is when, she said, her own animal instinct took over.
She said,
I got it by the neck with both hands.
I realized it was violent,
so I couldn't just throw it off
and then expect that it wouldn't be right after me again,
so I knew what I had to do.
I had to choke it to death.
All right, now it's time for a segment
from Holden McNeely.
We gotta do the punchlines.
We all gotta do one punchline.
No, I know.
I think we're done.
I'll just go first.
Raccoon, more like
Wacoon.
That book's...
That Raccoon's
reading too many books.
He's not kissing any girls.
Why don't we just go
right to this segment?
I mean, that's the whole...
The whole show
is being ruined.
And that was also my joke.
Come on, everyone.
Yeah, Holden won it
because he's the worst
and you're going to beat him
at the bartending audition.
You know, Henry, you missed.
They're auditioning him for the same role in Jermaine Fowler's new show.
Jermaine's pilot, yeah.
We're betting it's for the bartender even though the bartender's a gay man.
So Jackie's going to get it.
God damn.
The whole system's broken.
It is.
It is.
If you want to watch a perfect pilot, you got to watch Cheers pilot.
Why did we just open?
Do the joke.
If you want to watch an example of, if you were going to try to write a pilot for television,
watch the pilot for Cheers and take lesson.
Okay, so Kevin, your joke about the story by the record.
Dude, I already forgot what happened.
Yeah, I don't know.
There was a woman that was
looking at birds and then a rabid raccoon
attacked her and she choked it to death.
She was 75.
Yeah, man. I mean, niggas is crazy these days.
It's not fair. He's got the best tagline
for it.
Ben, what do you got?
I will
defer. I'll defer.
What is that? You're passing the buck?
I'm going to defer. You'll pass.
I've decided I don't want to answer.
I'm going to defer. Henry, what do you got?
Raccoon, more like wackoon.
That is funny.
That's what I was actually thinking.
I think she killed the raccoon
because she always wanted...
You know what?
Are you deferring?
I'm deferring.
Okay.
You're deferring?
What are you doing, Jackie?
You're deferring?
I'm going to defer.
Okay.
Mike, are you deferring or are you going to cut something for us?
Raccoon more like wacky.
Raccoon. Burger wacky Raccoon Burger
Don't
More like girder
Good
What else does raccoon rhyme with?
Raccoon rhymes with
Mon-coon
Mon-coon
The Italian dish
So you're going with raccoon more like man-coon
Mon-coon
Yeah, so my punchline is
Raccoon more like mon-coon Thanks for-coon. Yeah, so my punchline is raccoon more like mon-coon.
Thanks for the help.
I don't know what that is.
Deferred.
This is perfect.
I'm so mad at you
that I don't have anything.
I feel like it's gone
all the way to the other side
and now it's become art.
Right.
Now we're making art.
Jackie, would you like
to defer a second time?
Yeah, I'm going to defer
it up to heaven
like where the angels are.
Okay.
Can I do that?
I do want to say
that it's weird
that she grabbed the raccoon
by the throat.
Choked it to death.
That's a weird thing to do.
She said she went
in a full instinct mode.
To choke something to death?
That was her first instinct.
I feel like it would have been
a lot weirder
if she was just
trying to suck its dick
or something.
Yeah, that's a different way to kill it.
Trying to suck its dick to death.
That would be a weird way to kill it.
Man, raccoons have...
It's not dying!
Notable-sized dicks.
I have a raccoon baculum in my pocket right now that Henry gave me.
Why is it in your pocket?
It's in my jacket pocket.
Oh, okay.
It was a gift.
Oh, that's okay.
All right.
So, that's the end of that, Marcus.
That's a segment from
Holden McNeely now time.
All right.
Now time, segment time.
Holden McNeely.
Welcome.
You say welcome?
Yes.
We're like wackos.
We're like wackos.
Remember when I said it
and then you forget about the part where I said it was the Riddler
because I bombed?
Alright, we're going to end this podcast really soon.
We're going to make this real fast. Everyone has to tell a
story. I don't understand.
Okay, a fable. Do you know what a fable is?
Cinderella.
That's a true story. A fable involves
talking animals and a moral at the end.
Aesop. Aesop's fables.
Remember, okay, there was the fox, then there was the grapes that were up top.
Sour grapes.
The scorpion.
Sour grapes.
And the frog.
The scorpion and the frog.
Don't bleed out until you're finally going to get...
Fox or the chicken.
Fox or the chicken.
Sometimes a rapist will take you across a lake.
I don't think I know what a fable is.
The fox takes the gingerbread man across the lake and then the gingerbread
man gets eaten. Yeah. Can't trust
the fox. Can't trust the fox. Oh, chicken
little. Chicken little. Chicken
big. Chicken big.
Alright, so I'll start
with my fable. It's
a bear and
a goat.
This is gonna be good,
guys. Bear and goat.
Bear and a goat, they get along great.
They play cards every day.
One day, the goat says, hey, instead of cards, why don't we chase each other around the lake?
The bear catches up with the goat from behind, gets him in the fucking crosshairs, takes him down.
Never trust a bear, especially on a dare.
Thank you.
Very good.
I feel like this whole thing is just stacked against us.
Because you had that thought upon waking this morning.
You literally improvisationed that just now.
You improvisationed that?
Did you improvisation that sentence?
What was his improvisational score?
Remember the Simpsons?
Where the guy says, what could possibly go wrong?
Yeah, we talked about this yesterday.
That's the first thing that ever
has gone wrong.
It's Kevin's turn.
Animals and immoral at the end.
This is so hard. My brain is over.
What I just learned from when I did it,
if you put a bunch of energy into it
and just jump off the cliff, you'll get there.
Oh, did you give us tips?
Yeah.
You'll get there, though, Jackie.
Oh, this, you know, this from a time when shit was real fucked up in the streets, right?
And then so niggas had to go, you know, we had to, like, we was fucked up for a good seven years.
Right.
And, you know, you spoke to this owl, and he was like, motherfucker, you got to get that
flute.
But like, what kind?
And he said, ocarina.
So I got that.
And so I started playing it, right?
You need a second.
Motherfucker took me back.
You know, it took me forward, actually, and I could go back and forth.
Fucking Gannon was tripping though.
He took my bitch and I was like, goddamn, dude, you gonna do that shit?
But I got it back
You know
Basically
Boomerangs and what not
We was riding around
On that shit
I got a bigger sword
At one point
Couldn't really hold it
But
My targeted system
Was all fucked up
And confusing
Cause it was like
Why was it
Why did you have to
Press Z every time
Z trigger
Why is it a Z too
It should have just been locked
This is Ocarina of Time
Okay So what was What's the moral Of the story The moral of the story is Why is it a Z, too? It should have just been locked. This is Ockery all the time.
Okay, so what's the moral of the story? The moral of the story is you're never going to not get lost in the Water Temple.
Yeah.
They made it easier on the 3DS.
I like how Kevin's fable was in first person.
Yeah.
I really enjoyed that aspect of it.
It's like John Wendell's Grendel. Yeah, it's just like John Wendell's Grendel's like John Wendell's Grendel.
Yeah, it's just like John Wendell's Grendel.
Just like Wendell's Grendel.
I love Wendell's Grendel.
Yeah.
All right, well, everyone enjoys Wendell's Grendel.
That's what I call my penis.
Uh-oh, Kissel, it's your turn.
Oh, Kissel, you can't defer.
You could defer the joke segment, but you cannot defer the fable segment.
Just pick two animals and lie about it.
That's what you gotta do?
Yep.
There's a rat, and there is a cat, and they are very good friends, and at the end, they
figure out that society doesn't like them.
I don't know.
What's the lesson?
That's it.
That's it.
If you don't understand that nobody thinks you're special, you fucking failed. That's the lesson. I like it. I like that. That's it. If you don't understand that nobody thinks you're special, you fucking failed.
That's the lesson.
I like it.
I like that.
That's great.
You're a shithead.
Yes.
Learn a skill.
Learn a skill.
Learn a skill.
Pick a vocation and go down that path, son.
Maybe university isn't for you.
Okay.
Pick a skill.
Choose it.
Rat and a cat.
They figure it out.
No one gives a shit
About what they do and no one cares about how they live
Okay, Marcus, you taking notes on that one?
Oh yeah, rat and the cat
Good, alright
Let's give that some points
Ben, you were good and done
I defer
Two fucking chipmunks
Are roommates in a tree
Right?
One's big, fat chipmunk.
Healthy chipmunk.
Big, fat.
Extra healthy.
One's super skinny, right?
Big, fat chipmunk thinks it looks fucking sexy putting on tiny fucking chipmunk clothes.
Right?
Like putting on like tiny.
Are you talking about your dating life right now?
I'm just saying.
Call him J. Edgar.
And the other one.
You don't have a roommate.
You're all alone.
Yeah, because you broke up with your girlfriend.
She moved out.
Yeah.
So this story is a fable.
This is a made up bullshit.
You don't have a dining room table.
You know what's weird is about chipmunks are told from the very beginning that they're supposed to mate for life.
Right.
And then if you find someone and you're a chipmunk,
that chipmunk relationship's going to last forever.
But sometimes...
But now you're lonely.
I saw him eat sushi off of a chair the other day.
You don't even have a place to live.
Sometimes a chipmunk has to go out to L.A. for long periods of time.
And sometimes certain chipmunks take situations for granted.
Right?
And they have to fucking check in and
reevaluate. But you're just like sleeping alone
like all the time.
Two chipmunks are roommates
and one turned out to be
not there anymore.
As if the other chipmunk never was. Right. Not there anymore.
As if the other chipmunk never was.
Right, right.
As if there was an eraser there.
As if there was a fucking empty space.
Never.
Eight years of your life never happened.
Of that chipmunk's life.
Didn't happen.
Right, right.
So what's the moral there?
You fucking... That other chipmunk has just got to be strong
And confident and making money
And taking care of itself
And know for a fact
That chapters end
But that is sometimes the end of a chapter
Is just the beginning of a new chapter
And luckily that chipmunk
Has a fan base
Of desperate female chipmunk has a fan base of desperate female
chipmunks that like to drink.
Have to drink.
I would never
liken you to a chipmunk, for sure.
I would never ever liken you to a chipmunk.
Why? What would you like me to? An elephant.
Yeah, a tortoise. Why did I even
open the door?
I would say, why'd you even come?
You were with the mayor, and now you're here.
I was napping, and I literally was like, better get there on time.
And we started early, too.
All right, so Jackie.
Henry, I'm sorry you've gone through it, man.
Oh, I feel great.
I think everything is okay.
Honestly, yeah.
All right, so a rat and a platypus meet.
I had a rat and a cat. I know you had the rat's like... I had a rat in the carriage.
You had a rat, but I already had a rat in my head.
Rat and a platypus meet, and the rat's like,
oh my god, you're just like me,
but you're a little bit different.
And he doesn't really understand why they're different,
because they're both fuzzy, and they both have eyes,
and they both have legs,
and he's like, I like you,
but daddy rat doesn't fucking like that baby rat
isn't in the shit
with this fucking bitch ass
platypus. So the platypus is
mean. Yeah no the platypus
ain't mean the platypus is just different
and so the rat
realizes like oh maybe you're different
maybe I'll fuck you
and we're gonna have baby rats together
so instead he tries to fuck the platypus shit ain't happening different, maybe I'll fuck you and we're going to have baby rats together. So instead
he tries to fuck the platypus.
Shit ain't happening.
Shit ain't happening because he doesn't
realize that they
ain't a mammal. So what the
rat does is that he stomps
on the platypus.
Just stomps on it until
it doesn't lay eggs, but
its eyes do pop out.
So nice.
So in turn, he realizes...
Fables are dark, man.
Yeah, fables are, yeah.
The platypus is different than he is,
but he loved the platypus to death,
and then the moral of the story is,
stomp on a bitch,
and she probably won't give you kids.
All right, so that is Jackie's moral of the story is stomp on a bitch and she probably won't give you kids. Alright, so that is
Jackie's moral of the story.
But Jackie,
you're in a healthy, loving relationship
and have been for a while.
Well, they broke up for like a year and she went
bananas. Yeah, but it's like, if you
stomp on a bitch, bitch won't give you
kids.
Alright, Micah, you're up after that.
Okay, so moose and goose.
The rhyme.
Rhyme points.
And they own a bilge pump and rototiller emporium.
Oh, very practical.
Precisely.
The problem is the moose has huge antlers, right?
And it's always getting caught on the rototiller propellers and the bilge pump extensions.
I don't know these things.
Don't worry, Jackie.
The specifics aren't important.
It's not important for the story.
The point is he always-
A bilge pump pumps bilge.
What's bilge?
Bilge gets in the bottom of a boat.
There we go.
And a rototiller.
A rototiller is something that you push through your garden to make the soil arid.
You know, if you microwave a sponge too long, it singes.
Henry, your time, like your relationship, is done.
Oh!
Wow.
Wow. Old as ice.
Wow. Man.
And then that evil laugh.
His antlers keep getting caught on all the stuff.
He was really proud of himself for that one.
In the Emporium.
And the goose
is like, you know what? I can't
take this anymore. I'm going to go get some coffee.
Okay.
Right?
And so the moose is just, he's like, all right, fine.
And they get into a huge fight.
The goose ends up working at the coffee shop.
And he says, I don't want to work with that guy anymore.
I know that story.
I don't want to work with him anymore because he's got a temper.
And he's just too big.
He's too big for the shop that we started together.
Story of me and Henry.
Because when they started the shop, it was fall.
And his antlers had fallen off.
Malted.
Do they fall off?
They do molt.
And then spring came around.
He grew up and got caught on all the paraphernalia.
Yeah.
And so then the moose goes out the front door and is like, Jesus, I can't run this place
by myself.
My antlers are too big.
Yeah.
Right.
And so he goes, he's like, you know what, I'm going to get a coffee.
Okay.
And so he goes to the coffee shop and the goose is there behind the counter
oh man and he just goes ballistic oh he has to okay so so he he he takes out a um a billy club
okay he just has all the time he he constantly wears it okay uh because they they don't it's
a small business and and they they can't't afford like a part-time security guard.
Got it.
So he's always wearing it.
Because the thing about bilge pumps is they're commonly made out of copper.
Yeah, yeah.
Which crackheads like to steal.
Mm-hmm.
So.
I'm still laughing at myself.
So where's Maura?
Do you remember Maura
and how you
you had a love
as well
when was
when was that
I don't know
years fucking years
years ago
but I think
you still think about her
I am more in love
with my girlfriend
today than I was
at any other time
that I can think of
I just met her man
and she
she is a ray of light.
She's a delight.
Beautiful woman.
Are you guys engaged?
No.
No?
No.
No, I can't chain a stallion to a fucking stump.
Wait, is Micah the stump in this scenario?
Yeah, I am the stump.
Oh.
Yeah, the stump, right?
Okay, so he pulls out the billy club.
Yeah, right, right.
Which is the important part of the story.
I don't miss her at all.
I don't even know why you mentioned her.
That's been literally years.
But it's crazy, though, because I was just thinking about her this week,
and y'all were great together.
Man, she was really amazing.
Yeah, she was an awesome person.
I put more mirrors in my home, so it looks like I have roommates.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sometimes Alyssa will leave out a cup of water or something,
and I'll be like, God, that's cute.
And you know what's dope about my shit, though?
Xbox One, you're in the middle of a game, you shut it off,
it'll start back up right where you were.
I love that.
That's great.
Reliability is what you're looking for in a relationship.
So anyways, he beats this goose to death all right in public with you in front of everybody yeah and people don't want to
fuck with a moose it's huge and he's got a temper yeah i mentioned that before yeah
and so he's like who wants some who? Mm-hmm. Who in this establishment wants some?
Right.
If you don't want it here, you can get it down at the Bilge Pump and Rototiller Emporium.
It's two blocks from here.
Right.
You can all go fuck yourselves.
Good for him.
He shouldn't have done that.
Right.
Because there was a mole rat in the back of that coffee shop. Can't trust a mole rat.
He's a black belt in karate.
Oh, they're unpredictable. Okay.
And he walked into that
karate.
Karate. Karate. Karate.
Mole karate. Mole karate.
No thank you. Which is a drink
that they offer at the coffee shop. Oh, the mole karate.
So this mole rat goes up, goes into the bilge pump and rototiller.
Rototiller.
And he's like, listen, Moose.
And he's like, are you here to buy a rototiller or a bilge pump?
Because I got a billy club with your name on it, if not.
And he goes, I'm going to stop you there.
I'm a black belt in karate.
Thank you, Micah.
I don't want to use this on you, but I will if you come at me.
Don't leave this place ever.
And he walks out the door
and the moose died
in that rototiller and bilge pump
emporium. Wow.
And the moral of the story is
don't bite off more than you can chew.
Very good. I like that a lot.
It was powerful.
That was very good.
I really was into that, too.
Pulled the heart strings.
What about the Goose's family?
Did they come after him?
Because if I was a Goose's father, I'd be like...
I can't understand you, Dad.
Dad, use your words.
He's a Goose.
That's your new character, Goosefather?
The Goosefather.
I love the Goosefather.
He puts cotton in his beak to sound like that.
Holy shit.
Who wins?
What's the game?
Their fable gets filmed for national television.
Their fable gets put on for television.
Oh, possibly a PBS special.
Probably not.
Could be, though.
We'll pitch it.
We're going to pitch it.
MTV music video version of the fable.
Oh, MTV music video version.
So won't get shown.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
So no one's going to see it.
You know what?
I think if we're going with the sign of the times, something that would really, I think,
go for what we need to let the youth know today.
Are you Jeff Foxworthy?
What happens?
I think that we're going to have to go...
Okay, let's narrow it down.
Let's narrow it down.
Who gets third place?
Who gets third place?
What is the criteria to win here?
Is there something contemporary for the kids?
There is a centuries-old algorithm.
No, it's a rat and a cat get told how to fucking be better than what they're currently up to.
You know what?
Two chipmunks loved each other and they did for years.
But we're not going back to your personal.
Don't trust a bear.
Stomp on a bitch, they won't give you kids.
Dead moose, dead goose.
And Maura would take me back as soon as I return her call.
So don't even fucking worry about it.
We're going to...
I say we're going to do two.
I can't decide.
That defeats the purpose of the market.
You proved my fucking point.
Half the budget?
We've got to put our money into something here.
Marcus, who gets second place?
Who gets runner-up? Who gets first place? Fine, fine, fine. We're going to go into something here. Marcus, who gets second place? Who gets runner up? Who gets
first place? Fine, fine, fine. We're gonna go
rat in the cat first place, rat in platypus
second place. Fine. Are you happy,
man? I am not happy.
I do not have feelings. Did Kissel just
beat me? I did, Jackie,
and I usually do.
That is not true.
Alright, pep in your step. I feel
great. Are you about to smile for the rest of the day?
No.
All right.
That's been the round table of jokes.
Even his smile looks like a frown.
I did.
I am.
Uh-oh.
Are you smiling right now?
I am.
Uh-oh.
I am smiling.
But it goes down.
Like, it doesn't go up.
Yeah, when you smile, it looks like a grimace.
If Holden is the Riddler, maybe you're the Joker.
He's always smiling.
Jackie, you're the penguin, Jackie.
That's funny.
You're the...
That's the episode.
Can we get out of here?
For the love of God.
I'm embarrassed. Follow the last podcast on the left at LP on the episode. Can we get out of here? For the love of God. I'm sorry. I'm embarrassed.

And now there's this.
Yep.
