Last season, millions tuned into the Betrayal podcast to hear a shocking story of deception. I'm Andrea Gunning, and now we're sharing an all-new story of betrayal. Ashley Lytton was helping her husband set up a business Venmo account when she discovered
Starting point is 00:00:47 a terrible secret. I saw it in a folder, and I opened it. What the hell did I just see? Listen to season two of Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Between April 1971 and September 1972, six young black girls were snatched off the streets in Washington, D.C. This child was laying on the side of the road. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen. I will admit the others when you catch me if you can. Signed Freeway Phantom. Listen to Freeway Phantom on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeart radio, the show where we talk about what's
Starting point is 00:01:40 obviously most critically, crucially important. Today on This Is Important, why his religious family fears he's possessed by the devil. My shit is so swampy, dude. I hate it. I, Adam Devine, am Keele. Yo, I did YouTube from seventh grade to high school, and like, I'm good to go. Let's go! What up, dude? And we're dead. Can I get two real right out the gate? Just get two real with you guys with three of my best friends? Do we have a choice? You do not, because I am speaking to you now. Steam rolling. Yeah, what up? Real talk. I have to have, it's kind of almost mandatory to have groomsmen in a wedding, and I need you guys to be my groomsmen. Will you say yes to that? What do you think? Oh. Oh my god! Well, well. I mean. You could say no. I say, yeah, I'll do it.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Hell yeah. Nice. Okay, we got one. We got one. You got one. Who's next? Okay, who's next? I'm gonna say, hell yeah, brother. I'm in. Yes. Okay. You were searching for a button there that you couldn't find. No. I was like, do I make this a special moment, or do I hit him with a... Yeah, baby! Oh, yeah. There it is. Well, that to me is a special moment, you know? Your fingers tickling those keys. That's special. That's great. Kyle, last. My brother. But certainly, at least. What's up? My brother. My brother. Adam. Adam Devine. Yes, dog. It would be an honor. All right. Yes. All right. Thanks, guys.
Starting point is 00:03:36 Adam's cue right before Blake hit that. So tight. Adam going like this. And Adam, do we want to tell the listeners about the raffle we're having for the sixth spot? Yes. Yes. That would be so tight. That would be so tight. And actually, I gotta hurry up and ask the other groomsmen, because I haven't yet, and this episode's gonna air soon, and then they're gonna listen and be like, what the fuck? Dude, have you decided how many on either side? Yeah, what's the rules with that? Yeah, I think there's gonna be six on my side, four on Chloe's side. So there'll be two extras. When me and my wife got married, we were all deep. We had nine on a side. That's tough, man. Yeah. She's got a big family, though. She's got a big family, right?
Starting point is 00:04:28 So there's like built-in sisters and brothers on each side and then friends? It was mostly friends, dude. It was just a lot of friends. It was like, we just rolled deep. We couldn't make the choice. It's hard. Rolled deep. You couldn't cut people loose? I cut motherfuckers loose. I was like, sorry, man. How many did you have? Seven or eight? Yeah, I said you had quite a few. Well, you have your brothers and then us. That's big. Yeah, that's big. Seven or eight is big. Adam just said six. Yeah. What's the norm? Is there a norm? You said nine. I know. I said nine. Yeah, but seven or eight is still big. Yeah. Well, I think nine is gigantic. Agreed. Nine is like when you get married at 18 and just all of your high school homies, like Fat Tony, Big Steve, Little
Starting point is 00:05:10 Rob, like they all have nicknames and they're all in your wedding. Yeah. Our buddy Thomas told us that like the whole purpose of groomsmen was like, you picked your friends who are the best sword fighters just in case somebody rolled in to try to break your shit up. That's right. Okay, guys, then I take the ask back. I'm taking it back. No, it's very true. That's like the meaning of it is like the best man is your best swordsman, the person who has your back the best. And then your groomsmen are also fighters. I don't think that's true at all. Okay. What do you think it is? Yeah. Your best friend, the groomsmen, what, your boys who like do your makeup for you and shit? No, it's just your homie. That's what it is now. We're talking about the beginning of this.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Yeah, it's your best friend. It's the guy that you're the closest with that is going to help you with it. I'm going on the internet. I never go to the fucking internet. I'm going on the internet. I like that they go, you don't understand the correlation. It's it's best man, which means best man at fighting. It's best swordsman. I mean, there might be some history back there. It's part of me thinks it's like, I know your friend Thomas, he he's a loves a good Renaissance fair. Yes, his dad is like a great fencer. So that could have something. Yeah, he is. And Larper. Yeah. So part of me is like, he's taken you down this road of the Renaissance and giving you extra facts. When you're walking around, you have your big ass cup of
Starting point is 00:06:38 meat, Blake, I'm looking at you. Yeah, we're holding a turkey leg and he's like feeding you these fun facts. And you guys are just nibbing them up. You guys are just nib. There was something romantic about it. I thought it was pretty cool that you pick your boy who could like fight to the death. And then what about the the bridesmaids? What are they? Well, that's the down and dirty. What? Hey, wait, wait, let me get the let me get the real thing here going here. Look, this is what it says when you Google the tradition of the best man is thought to have originated with the Germanic Goths of the 16th century. Sick. Nice. He was the best man for specifically the job of stealing the bride from her neighboring community or disapproving family. Okay. And
Starting point is 00:07:25 and he was probably that's weird, but and he was probably the best swordsman too. It says and he was probably the best swordsman. That's the wording. He probably. Yeah. Probably. What's your source here? This is from what is Yeah, what is the source? Rob's blog at net space.com. I don't know. It's the thing that comes up right on Google. What is that source? It's like Wikipedia. It's called maybe it's this.com. You go you type in your question goes maybe it's this Google's an amazing search engine that you can type in anything you want. You're like is the best man the best man at fighting and it'll go. Yeah. No, I said I didn't do that. I didn't lead it on. Someone said it one time on the internet. So I didn't lead it on them. But now I'm getting into something that's
Starting point is 00:08:12 crazy. Like this is like in a time when marriage by capture was practiced. Yeah, dude. Close friends of the groom would assist him in taking the bride from her family. They'd form a small army to fight off angry relatives so that he could escape with her. This is fucking crazy. Just get in the bag. I love you. It's a prank. Right. It's me. It's Doug. Chip wanted me to come over here and steal you ready to get married tomorrow. It's gonna be crazy. You're finally gonna have sex. Yeah, we're gonna go with just more of like a current day marriage. Yeah. Yeah. Well, the best man plans a bachelor party. No, dude, we're kidnapping Chloe. It's gonna be sick. The bummer is is I don't know. I honestly do not know if there will be a batch
Starting point is 00:08:56 party. No. I don't know. Blakey and I know that's how sad that makes you. Well, because you know, it's still COVID times. We're getting married next October. I'm going to be in Charleston until at least August. So I don't know if we will get to or not. I wanted to throw down in Omaha. I mean, I'm not saying that's where you were going to do it, but I've never been to your stomping grounds. That would have been cool. I don't know. That's right. You didn't come when we shot the Stamos special there. I don't know where I was. What if you just do the bachelor party like a couple of days earlier, you know, like just right before the wedding? The night before. Like a couple of days before
Starting point is 00:09:40 the wedding. What if you did that? That'd be tight. Just I spent two weeks down in Mexico. That'd be sick. Yeah. Show up swollen face and sunburn. Yeah. But then you don't want like, you know, in case the bachelor party takes some weird wild turns, you don't want people to be like on your wedding day of being like, uh-oh, there he is. Cinnamon Adam or whatever weird nickname I got and I'm like, I'm not cinnamon Adam. I'm not. I'm not cinnamon Adam. Are you like, you like bust your teeth on something all drunk and. Oh, for sure. Yeah. I fall down my stairs and just break a femur and then I have to get married because I plan on probably losing some teeth. Oh, if you don't lose some teeth there in your bachelor party, did you even do it?
Starting point is 00:10:23 Did you even? Well, I was hoping to go to New Orleans because I know it really well and I feel like I could take my boys down there and we could have some. We could. 69, dude! Exactly. And thank you. Well said. But you know, it could be fun. It's like maybe I like rent a like a house somewhere and like Big Bear or somewhere fairly close where we could all just, you know, do dude shit. Play cards. I think that's the move. Yeah. We'll buy a bunch of guns. We'll go crazy. Smart. Yeah, get a bunch of guns. Yeah, that could be fun. Yeah, make some pipe bombs. Pipe bombs? Yeah, let's fashion some pipe bombs. That sounds good. Now we're talking. I would love to make pipe bombs with you guys. What was that shit? The anarchist cookbook or whatever? We just
Starting point is 00:11:08 download that. Oh, yeah. You knew exactly what it was. It's out of print now. You can't even find it. You gotta get on the dark web together. Yeah, the dark web is the internet now. Yeah, it's just there. Right. I'm pretty sure you could look it up immediately. It's weird that the web became the dark web. Right. The anarchist cookbook was always the kid who always had it was the kid who was never going to do shit, but was always like, I could, I could just fucking blow this whole place away. You're like, are you going to? Huh? Well, you're not trying to egg them on. Jesus. Yeah, you don't want the one day to be. Nice. You're sussing them out. You're like, what are you doing? I don't know, nothing.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I like that Derz would just go face to face with them and be like, you don't have the fucking guts. That's because Derz was the one who wanted to do it. You don't have the balls. Do it. Yeah, I was fucking tearing pages out of it. That's like those times in the movies where the dude's got the gun to the guy's head and the guy just goes like, do it. Fucking do it. Oh, God. He put, he wraps his mouth around it. It's like, yeah. What? He just started sucking on the barrel? Yeah. Yeah, you've never had a dream that you woke up from. What's up? I don't know. It looks like the anarchist cookbook is. That's a book. I think they did a documentary on the guy who, who wrote it and he like heavily regrets it because I do
Starting point is 00:12:33 think a lot of kids did use it for fucking shitty shit. Yeah. Yeah. I had a neighbor that I knew, never really liked the guy, but he threw a bomb over into my driveway. I hate that. It sucks. It was like a chemical bomb that like expanded and then finally it exploded. And I was like, I didn't know what it was and I went over and it was just like a bottle full of shit. So I kicked it and when I kicked it, it exploded and all the chemicals got in my eyes. And I had to, like my dad had to lay me in the ground and just hose me in the eyeballs with piss, dude. He pissed in my face. No, with water. I love it. You're like, this is getting kind of quiet. Pee pee? Is that saying that? My dad peed on me. No, he ghosted me in the eyes with water.
Starting point is 00:13:23 And boring, boring water. Yeah, come on. And I remember it like for sure hurt for a little bit, but I remember I never liked the guy. So I made a bigger deal out of it than, I mean, for sure it was dangerous and he shouldn't have done it. But I was like, I can't see. I can't. I could see. I can't. I don't know. I can't see it. Now my dad's like, you can't see. He fucked up, fuck. And he's like yelling across the streets and they're like hiding behind the tree. Like they didn't see what's happening. The bombers? Yeah, the bombers. They're just my neighbor kids. The kid went to jail, but he just threw like basically a juice box over the fence and you kicked it and got juice on yourself and freaked out. It's a Boku. Yeah, he's served four
Starting point is 00:14:07 to seven. Damn, dude. That's crazy. The dude was making a chemical. He did chemical warfare on you. Yeah, he just dropped a chem bomb in my when I'm out there just aggressively hacky sacking. Yeah, damn. He probably just had a crush on you. He was just trying to meet you. Be best friends. Don't you remember when you used to do that, like pull girls' hairs, like throw bombs at them to make yeah, she'll be friends with me once you can't see me. Middle school. I'll be her guide person. She don't think I'm pretty. Oh, boy. Oh, God. Oh, gosh. Oh, boy. Too much. Hey, guys, too much. That was too much. Let's go. Remember the P part. By the way, our let's go. How a few episodes ago, we shit on let's go the entire time. Awesome. Still stand by that. Still think it's way overused.
Starting point is 00:15:03 But I was listening to the podcast today. Let's go. The new one just dropped. Let's go. And how are we doing? I haven't listened to it. Number one while. What's up? It's still good. It is doing really good. The last podcast I've listened to. Yeah, it's a humdinger, man. Treat yourself. I gotta check it out. But we start the podcast off with a and I'm pretty sure it's Blake going let's go like sincerely really a sincere let's go. I feel like Blake has said let's go and you know what we're here for you, man. If you feel like you need to shake it out and get that out of your system. Yeah, I will say that when you guys kind of came at let's go, I was in the corner kind of shaking because that is kind of the motto I live my life by is you're you're part of it. You're the let us
Starting point is 00:15:54 go. You're the us. Yes, so it's the let's go died out. You were like, who am I? Yeah, what do I do? Where do I go from here? Where do I go? Well, I know where I know that we let's should go. What do you think it is? Let's should go. Let's should go. No, you think the S is for should No, Der's keep up, man. Come on. Wait, let should go. What are we talking about here? What's going on? I like what's happening should go. I was talking with Blake, right? And he was talking with me. You guys are rudely interrupted. You guys got zoned out. I'm having a whole conversation over here. I know I did. I was like, I'll come back when this is over boring. No, that was that was a hot topic. That was remember our podcast. Come on, man. We like to reflect. This is not what the
Starting point is 00:16:44 people want. Honestly, I don't listen to it. I was tripping today and I was like, is it still good? Like what? I'm like, hey, man, we're doing what we do. That's it. That's true. We're doing what we do for sure. We're doing what we do. That's it. I mean, I would I will say that I have grown to really enjoy podcasts, not only ours, but you know, there's a few that I check out. And yeah, I'm into it. Did you say I will say I will say who are you bringing up owls again? I will say that's also a funny callback owls. Adam's scared of them, dude. Do not get him started. What's a podcast? What's what's one of your what are you listening to, dude? I like to listen to the podcast Poug. It has it's with Cape Berlin. It's just these two girls
Starting point is 00:17:30 like talking about just the exact opposite of shit we talk about. So that's kind of refreshing. Yeah, when she does when Cape Berlin does the serious phone calls into the banana, she's so good. It's my favorite thing in the world. She's excellent. I used to listen to that like QAnon anonymous one just because I just started that one. Yeah, it's pretty interesting because I have a few people in my life that are Q and honors that I'm just like trying to wrap my head around what the fuck they're talking about half the time. Nice, let's go. Kyle looks way too serious right now. Kyle's like, yeah, well, it all makes perfect sense. No, I mean, I've I have definitely been
Starting point is 00:18:12 where you were at and I am like, I've done the research like I yeah, I well, and I'm glad I did fully they're, you know, it's an insane rabbit hole to go down. Yeah, for sure. But yeah, the Q and Q clearance, right? Is that what it's called? The podcast? It's called QAnon anonymous. Oh, I think mine, the one that I listened to was called Q clearance and it was good. They did a good job of like kind of breaking it down. So you can understand what the fuck it is. Yeah, it is. And what's your takeaway? It all makes perfect sense. Controls us all. And you're pretending like you're not QAnon himself. Herself, we don't know. I'm Q. It turns out I'm Q. Listen to me. Is it that the name of
Starting point is 00:18:56 the person Q? Yeah, listen to me. I'm Q and they've got a Q clearance, which I guess is like a really high clearance in the government. So it's me. Oh, yeah, that's pretty far down the alphabet for sure. Yeah. And I'll admit, because a lot like Q isn't taking credit and isn't like coming out and being like, yeah, I'm Q. It's me. Oh, my God. That's probably the most important news we've ever Yeah, can you say that again? Yeah, this this is important. I, Adam divine, am this is hard to say. I am Q. Wow. Holy shit, bro. What a development. Could you imagine how disappointed everyone would be if I came out and it's like, it was me the whole time I'm Q. They're like, okay, but it would explain everything.
Starting point is 00:19:46 It'd be like, oh, okay, I get it now. That was pretty funny. I made all of these predictions. None of them came true. Just wait. Next week, something will happen. They will. They will arrest her any second now. I'm Q. Yeah. So I'm Q. I'm Q. I'm definitely really Q. You're both listening to a podcast about this two different ones. So obviously, there's like an appetite for people who are on the outside looking in trying to understand it. And what is it a waste of time? Or do you feel like Adam, you said you've got some people in your life that are fucking down with the sickness. So like, does it give you a window into the world or what?
Starting point is 00:20:28 No, and it's mostly like, there are no one really, really close to me. It's mostly just like trying to figure out. I also ride my bike up through Huntington all the time. And there's like a van that's parked there with just a giant Q and a Blue Lives Matter flag and a giant Trump flag. And I'm like, who is this guy? Is he just gonna like, step out of the vehicle with an AR-15 and just unload on me and all my cycling bros? With the chemical bomb? So I just kind of was like, I wanted to kind of dive in and figure out what even it was about, which it's when they break it down, it is truly insane. But I understand that people want something to believe in. I understand why conspiracy theories take hold because they want to believe in a different reality. They want to
Starting point is 00:21:23 believe in something else. Right. Well, they want to have some kind of meaning behind it all. You know what I mean? Like all the fucking hate and the violence and put a head on the horrific things that go on in society. So it's wrapped around. I mean, at the bottom of it, it's like child trafficking and pedophilia. And you're like, well, if you get there, if you dig and you get there, you're like, well, yeah, like if you have any kind of like higher power, like you believe that people are controlling certain things and elements. Yeah, it's easy to, I think it would be easy to slip it. It's easy to slip into it. I know I'm looking at Kyle who's kind of like, I mean, if you look, but dude, they're using child trafficking as like a fucking cloak where it's like, are you against
Starting point is 00:22:02 child trafficking? And you're like, of course. And then they go, so are we. So get in here. 100% onters. I know. And that's where people really get hooked. That's what happens. That's what's at the bottom of it, if you're looking. And so everything else is just a byproduct. Well, there's no worse traffic than here in LA. What'd you guys do today? Yeah, you want to talk about traffic. Let's talk about the 405, right? It's a dang parking lot. I'll talk about traffic. You ever get honked at and you're like, oh, I better go. That's me holding up a kid probably in a trunk behind me. Q and that. Dude, we got it on. We got it. They did something on Murder Mystery because the guy's last name and it was Quintz. And I put a Q pillow
Starting point is 00:22:49 in there. It was Q on everything. And this was like, you know, three, whatever, three years ago, two, three years ago. And there was a post that came out that was like, Q is in this movie and they're telling me what to do. They're giving us a message through the pillow placement of this shot. And I remember being on set, being like, they're like, should we put the Q pillow right there? And I was like, yeah, it looks pretty cool. It's Quintz. Like that's our character. That's where we are. Like it makes sense. Message. But it just got, yeah, it just got spun out. And I was like, wow, what is this? What is going on? That's crazy. And that was like when it was still kind of young, I feel like those were the Pizza Gate years. Oh, the sweet Pizza Gate. If we could just
Starting point is 00:23:31 go back there. Oh, the Pizza Gate years. Yeah. To totally change subjects. Let's do that. Thank you. Yeah, good call. Let's do it. I ask you, I'd like to change the subject. Thank you for putting my pillows in Murder Mystery, Kyle. All hail Q. All hail Q. All hail Q. Love my pillow. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart. I'm a neuroscientist and an author at Stanford University. And I've spent my career exploring the three pound universe in our heads. On my new podcast, I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and our experiences by tackling unusual questions so we can better understand our lives and our realities. Like does time really run in slow motion when you're in a car accident? Or can we create
Starting point is 00:24:33 new senses for humans? Or what does dreaming have to do with the rotation of the planet? So join me weekly to uncover how your brain steers your behavior, your perception and your reality. Listen to Inner Cosmos with David Eagleman on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last season, millions tuned into the Betrayal podcast to hear a shocking story of deception. I'm Andrea Gunning, and now we're sharing an all new story of Betrayal. Ashley Lytton was helping her husband set up a business Venmo account when she discovered a terrible secret. I scrolled down and that's when I saw a hidden folder and I opened it. What the hell did I just see?
Starting point is 00:25:30 I was scared that he was coming home. What Ashley discovered that day was a secret so dark she feared for her life. She was like, oh my god, I got to get out of the house. He's going to find out that I've seen this. He's going to come kill me. Listen to season two of Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Between April 1971 and September 1972, six young black girls were snatched off the streets in Washington DC. It took four murders before the police finally realized that one person was responsible. I will admit the others when you catch me if you can. Signed freeway phantom.
Starting point is 00:26:21 This child was laying on the side of the road. It appeared that she was probably either dragged out of the car or thrown out of the car. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen by the mother. That guy is, he's out of sync with even the worst people. I thought that they would catch him. I thought it was just a matter of time. Is it possible that the killer is still alive? Listen to freeway phantom on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Well, how do we feel about for sure, for sure, SNL writers listen to the podcast,
Starting point is 00:27:10 install Durzi's ratatouille controlling someone having sex bit that we did as a throwaway bit here on the cast. We throw those bits away. And you know what they do? They take them out of the trash bin and they build a fucking career out of them. Hey, you're welcome, Snell. Yeah, 30 rock. You know, I wasn't too, but I saw it happen in live and I was like, what? Like if it is the case, like it's all good. Wait, you saw it. You were watching SNL live? I am on Saturday night. Come on, Machine Gun Kelly was performing. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Okay, all right. Yeah, look, if the sketch was like a huge hit and like very good past the opening premise of the ratatouille thing, like it just and turned into something great and amazing, I'd probably be pretty salty like, why didn't I sit at home and kind of unpack that a little bit and turn it into something? But it wasn't good or a hit if you was like a dick in the box or something. Yes, if it was dick in the box, it was dick in the box big dick in a box. It was ratatouille in the hat. Then you'd be like, but yeah, if we sang dick in a box, just as a funny bit here on the podcast, and then they did dig in the box on SNL, I could see I could see I was being a little right. So I wonder if how funny will it be? We just got to play in a bunch of
Starting point is 00:28:42 Easter eggs here on the podcast. So they I'm like, welcome, please take these bits. I'd love to see them on SNL. Like that would be fun for us. So like, I will fuck your girl. Should we tell everyone to tune out? We're talking, we're talking directly to the guy from SNL now. If everyone could turn it off, except for if you are currently employed at SNL, please listen up. A few weeks ago, we did a bit. That was an owl fuck your girl. And it's an owl who will fuck your girl. It could be a hit. And then and then every time you ask, I did you fuck my girl, they go, I will fuck your girl. Or they say, who? No, he says, who? Yeah, because owls don't say owl fuck your girl. They say, who? Yeah, that just goes on and on and on. Hey, but that's funny. Yeah. And guess what? Just like the
Starting point is 00:29:25 ratatouille idea, it's just a little kernel, a little nug, and we want to pack that. It's face value. You don't have to, you don't have to go further than just the word play, you know, should we step it out for the, you want to step it out? Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I feel like the other, the one that they did kind of had the beginning and then kind of had a middle and then it kind of got murky, didn't have an end. Let's help them out. Give them a beginning. All right, let's do the owl. Give them a beginning, a middle and an end. So they can really just kind of wrap it up. Okay. Well, also, they are getting paid by SNL to do this. Do we want to kind of help them along or are we just giving them? Yeah, let's do it. I don't, yeah, it's all love. Let's say it's night
Starting point is 00:30:03 time, right? It's like that. Okay. What happened next? Good start. Good start. Owls like the night. Exterior night? Is that what we're saying? We're going exterior night. That's typing. Okay, so this is, this is about a guy who comes home to his apartment right and his wife or girlfriend has like her clothes off and there's an owl there and he's like, what are you doing? And she's like, nothing. And he's like, why, why, why is there candles lit? Why is there music playing? Right? Why is there an owl here? She's like, it's not a big deal. Just let me, I'm going to go get on my pajamas and he's like, hey, God, you make this so weird. It's just my owl friend. Yeah. And then he goes up to the alley. He's like, Hey, was there somebody here? Fuck it, my girlfriend. And he's
Starting point is 00:30:42 like, who? Oh, yeah, he says, and the owl, the owl's Keenan Thompson for sure. Oh, of course. The owl's facing away. And then he turns his entire head around slowly. Right. Very funny. The good, good. Yes. A comedy turn, physicality. Big L. And the guy coming in the apartment should probably be the host because it's a very reactive. They don't have to do much. Hey, I know it's not going to be army hammer. Oh, dang, we're going to unpack that too. Get him. Let's go. And so you do the whole who thing that kind of wears out. And then as he's going to be like, yeah, you're right. I'm crazy. I'm talking to an owl. And then when he walks away, he's like, I will fuck your girl. And he's like, what'd you say? Did you just say something? And he's like,
Starting point is 00:31:29 who? And he's like, you, did you just say something? Or is there another bird in the room too? It's kind of a little, uh, achewer. Yeah, there's a parrot. Oh, there's a parrot that says, I will fuck your girl. Uh-huh. And he's like, what? Owl fuck. Owl fuck. There you go. And is Blake in this episode? Did Blake just get in the sketch? I would love to be on SNL. That would be really cool. Yeah. Cast him, dude. Yeah. And then, uh, I guess like at the end, the big button at the end is like, he's like, all right, let's just go to bed. And when he takes off his shirt, he's got like cat scratches. And she was like, what? And he's like, sorry, I got a little pussy on my chest. I don't know. It's all right. It's run that one up the flagpole over at NBC.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Maybe that's the fun turn at the end. The guy had cats. He's been fucking a cat. Ders, you have the best turn. Ders, is there a doggy style joke? Sure. And then, uh, no, I don't even know if we need to walk down any other road besides, I've got a little pussy on my chest. Oh, I had a little pussy on my chest. A dog. This is the last sketch before they clap on the stage at the end. Oh, so it goes to that commercial break where it's like, it's like the piano. The apology commercial where they're like, we're so sorry we played that sketch. Don't worry, they're about to start clapping and say goodbye. Someone's going to hold up a political sign. And then to end the sketch, they definitely have to play that song.
Starting point is 00:33:10 And then cat scratch fever. What else? Doggy style? It's TSI. What theme song is that? Yeah, that's one of the CSIs. All the CSIs are who songs, I believe. Dude, by the way, when's the last time you guys checked in with like a CSI or like Law and Order? Checked in with one. Oh, Adam, when was that? Remember that? When did we check in? You guys know that I was, I acted, I was in the final episode of the CSI, right? That's right. That's right. No, you didn't know that. You got cut. He was a dead body. I got cut, but I still, I got cut. No, I was a paramedic. I got cut, but I still got credit. So my credits roll at the beginning of the episode. So that's tight.
Starting point is 00:33:54 And how did that come about? And just to, just to answer that question, never seen it. Kyle, how did, how did that come about, that casting? That was a fucking joke, that Comic-Con. We had new agents and I was like, I want to act in CSI, but I want to be the guy who's like in a mechanic shop or whatever. And I'm like, yeah, I seen her. Yeah, she came in here the other day. Right, right, right, right. I think of it actually, she was wearing these weird headphones. I just wanted that part in anything because I thought it was a hilarious conversation. These weird headphones. Yeah, whatever they're, whatever the case was. I like how he's improvising. She was zooming on a laptop. Yeah, she had these, she did wear AirPods. That's right. You know, that's weird. That's,
Starting point is 00:34:42 I hope that's why you got cut because they're like, okay, cut. Hey, Kyle, I love it. Love, I know on workaholics you guys do like fun improv runs, but there's no weird headphones. You're just naming things in the room and it's not helping. Well, that's exactly right. That's, that was the bit. The whole story is written. There's definitely clues already kind of baked into the story. We can't just add weird headphones to, we've already showed that that was the whole bit at Comic-Con. And then one of these young agents was like, I can get you apart. And I was like, okay dude, let's do it. Like whatever. Also, we're filming these two people in your 40 feet in the background. We need you quiet. Like whatever, fine. I'll go do this thing. I was like, I'll go
Starting point is 00:35:27 do this role and whatever. I won't know anybody there. It'll be fucking sick. So brain. Yeah. So I go and they're like, okay, we're going to give you a paramedic role. And I was like tight. And then they made me shave and I shaved and I had to say something about a migraine or like, you know, you're going to get trauma or something to you. You shave for the man. And I fucking rode in a van with fucking Ted dancing. And I was just like sitting in the back. You rolled in a van like two set. Yeah, because cast had to go to set. So I came out my trailer and I like fucking sat the van. Did you talk to him and were like, Hey, I'm not just a an actor with under five lines. I'm 100%. No, 100%. No, I was an actor. Big star. Okay, you you were just, uh, yeah, you were
Starting point is 00:36:12 I was undercover, dude, on the CSI set, like fucking shaved and like my hair back in a pony. And I was just sitting in the back of the van, like just watching. And I love it. It's like creeper. That's cool. What season of workaholics is this? This is like season five of workaholics or something like that. Okay, so that's you had to be undercover. I was going to say like, you didn't have to be undercover after like season one or two, maybe. Well, I also feel like all four of us could just go to Ted dancing and be like, Ted, and he'd be like, he'd hand us his jacket or something. You'd be like, yeah, just put that over there. Yeah, he gives us his keys. He's like, yeah, keep it up. Keep it close. Keep it running. Dude, I was so stoked. Like I was doing and I was like, nobody
Starting point is 00:36:53 here fucking knows me. This is great. And I'm like doing my line, just having fun with the guy who I'm doing it with. And then the dolly grip, this dude, Bill, was pushing dolly. And I'm like, what the fuck? I know this guy. And his fucking big bill from workaholics. He blows up my spot. He's like, Kyle, what are you doing here? You big time director slash television star. Yeah. And then they're like, you know this guy. And he's like, yeah, he's a fucking director. Like he made workaholics. And I was just like, Oh, what you should have done is you should have still stayed undercover and be like, I don't know. Please get away from me, sir. I don't know who this man is. I don't know what he's talking about. Do you have security on set? Yeah, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:37:34 nope. I'm sorry. I don't know who this man is. I'm sorry. Can I please speak with my sag or after rep? I would like to speak with a local 80 on set. Okay. Wow, man. Are those shows good? I want to get on one. I want to be like the eight, the eighth dude on the roster who just says something funny and then like farts off to go arrest somebody. Yeah, this NCIS New Orleans seems like a fun one to be on. Like the like country guy, the guy who like, yes, the original Friday night lights guy and the too fast. Yeah, the original Friday night lights guy that's always talks like this, like for sure he's from Texas and cannot shake. He always talks like this. Well, he does. I mean, it's not like he has an accent. Yeah, for sure. But also so do British people and they play Americans
Starting point is 00:38:21 all the time and people that are from the South don't steal our rolls. They don't always have the thickest accent you've ever heard. You know what I mean? Like for sure you can dial that up or down, but he can't. He's always full, full tilts that guy. I feel like that's a great job. Don't we know a guy from from the sketch days is on NCIS New Orleans. His name is Rob, I think. What is his name? Rob. Kirkovich. Yeah. Thank you. Good poll. Yeah. Funny dude. Summer of tears. Shout out. He's like a lab guy on there. Anyway. Oh, that's right. Yeah. Which those are the hardest rolls, right? Where you just have to, you have to memorize so much jargon. Being a paramedic. Yeah, it's very hard to play a paramedic. Yeah, or like a headphone repairman.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Yeah, it's super soft. Yeah, now that you said something, it was a weird set of headphones I worked on. Cut, Kyle. Hi, you're a car mechanic. You didn't work on headphones. She had a camera and some lights and I just figured maybe the headphones were a clue. I thought I'd just tell them, you know. Yeah, they were like some knockoff beats by Dre. Yeah, she must have got them at the corner down, whatever. Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut. Mr. Got them from Fat Tony down at the pawn shop. Did you read the script? Your background, buddy. Hey, Kyle, you're improving. All great stuff. Love it. Very fun. None of it is usable. We're going to have to cut this whole scene. Can you just tell him to be quiet? We didn't put a mic on you, sir. You're just
Starting point is 00:40:00 fucking up the audio track. Can the background extra please just shut the fuck up. Thank you. I'm undercover. Yeah, the improv could really derail the storyline pretty bad if you're just like, yeah, man, it was wild. She like killed two people and did it. Cut, cut. Okay, that's the heroine of our story. This revelation of improving can change the show in anything. Come to think of it, she's actually the murderer at the end of this episode. Well, I read the script. I'm an alien. I got to go. I'll see you guys later. I remember I was when I was doing stand up way back in the day, like when I when we were all still living together. And I did. I remember I came home and told you guys it was like the most
Starting point is 00:40:48 insane thing where I kind of knew this producer just from doing stand up. And he calls me, he's like, dude, would you ever be on a dating show? And I'm like, no, man, I don't want to be on a dating show. Like I'm trying to be like a comedian in my own right, not just like a guy in a dating show. And he goes, a guy running to you. And he goes, it was a pilot for a game show. And he goes, you'll get 500 bucks. It'll only take the day. And if you want, I won't tell anybody, you can just play a character. And I'm like, say what? And I went and did this pilot as I played this cool guy that talks like this. His name is Mike McCoy. He's chilling or whatever. And all day long, for 12 hours all day, I stayed in character as Mike McCoy doing this thing. And when I signed
Starting point is 00:41:39 the paperwork for To Get Paid, I signed it Adam Devine. And they're like, well, Mike, you have to sign your real name in order to get the money. And I'm like, yeah, Mike McCoy is my stage name. My real name's Adam Devon. And they're like, and they're like, well, Adam Devine's a perfectly good stage name. That's like a good name. Yeah, you don't need to switch it. And it was very confusing the whole day. But I ended up winning the game show because the producer, I was just being a fucking lunatic on the game show. And so they were like, yes, please, yes, keep them going. And telling the girl who's her job to choose to keep me in it. She fell in love with you. Supposedly for the shitty MTV game show. They're getting married.
Starting point is 00:42:27 She fell in love with Mike McCoy. Yeah. And like, they asked her like, how many chicks I slept with? And I like counted on my fingers. And then I go, I don't know, 69. And she's like, what, get this guy out of here. And she goes, cut, no, you're gone. I'm cutting him. And the producer's like, took her aside. And she came back and she goes, yes, Mike, move on to the next try. I really like you. That's the perfect number. I think the first time I, I did improv, like class at Second City with Adam, you were doing Mike McCoy like in a sketch. And I was like, this is fucking hilarious. Because you just had it dialed in. I went to school with a guy named Mike McCoy. And he kind of he talked like this. And he was just kind of the coolest dude of all time.
Starting point is 00:43:18 Like he was, when we, when we were in eighth grade, he was dating a freshman in college. What though? Like a hot chick. He never dated a girl in high school. He was always like, four or five years older. He could dunk a basketball in eighth grade. He would try out for the basketball team every year, make varsity because he was so goddamn good. And then be like, I'll show up for the games. And they're like, you have to practice. You have to come to practice. And he's like, nah. He said, we're talking about practice. And then practice. So I just was like, he's the funniest character alive. Like just this guy who's just too cool for fucking school. So that was one of my earliest, earliest characters. And I did it on, on this
Starting point is 00:44:05 weird game show. And I actually ran into the editor of that game show at the improv one day. And he stops me like I, after I got off station, he goes, holy fucking shit, man. And I'm like, what's up? And he goes, dude, I was the editor. The game show was called, not the game show, the dating show was called Going Down. And it was where it all takes place in like an elevator. It was a really bad premise. Thank God. So smart. No, no, good premise costs nothing. And they were, he was like, I cut, I was the editor of Going Down. And I thought you were the craziest motherfucker I've ever seen in my life. I was like, oh, he thought you were real. I'm so glad that you're not a real, that Mike McCoy wasn't a real person.
Starting point is 00:44:46 That's cool. I kept him up at night. I like that. He's like, dude, oh my God. You're like, no, mate, it's a, it's a character as ding. It's a character, mate. Oh my God. It's me, Eddie Redmayne. I'm from across the pond. Just the most over the top British accent. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart. I'm a neuroscientist and an author at Stanford University. And I've spent my career exploring the three pound universe in our heads. On my new podcast, I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and our experiences by tackling unusual questions so we can better understand our lives and our realities.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Like, does time really run in slow motion when you're in a car accident? Or can we create new senses for humans? Or what does dreaming have to do with the rotation of the planet? So join me weekly to uncover how your brain steers your behavior, your perception, and your reality. Listen to Inner Cosmos with David Eagleman on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last season, millions tuned into the Betrayal podcast to hear a shocking story of deception. I'm Andrea Gunning, and now we're sharing an all new story of Betrayal. Ashley Lytton was helping her husband set up a business Venmo account when she discovered a terrible secret. I scrolled down and that's when I saw a hidden folder and I opened it. What the
Starting point is 00:46:38 hell did I just see? I was scared that he was coming home. What Ashley discovered that day was a secret so dark she feared for her life. She was like, oh my god, I got to get out of the house. He's going to find out that I've seen this. He's going to come kill me. Listen to season two of Betrayal on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Between April 1971 and September 1972, six young black girls were snatched off the streets in Washington, D.C. It took four murders before the police finally realized that one person was responsible. I will admit the others when you catch me if you can. Signed freeway fan.
Starting point is 00:47:34 This child was laying on the side of the road. It appeared that she was probably either dragged out of the car or thrown out of the car. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen by the mother. That guy is, he's out of sync with even the worst people. I thought that they would catch him. I thought it was just a matter of time. Is it possible that the killer is still alive? Listen to freeway phantom on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. None of us can do a British accent to save our lives, which is weird because I feel like it is the easiest one. No way. Bullshit. Go ahead, Blake. All right, mate. Bullshit. What do you want? You want
Starting point is 00:48:26 Cockney. Give us a cockney. I knew you were going to say cockney. Okay. I fucking knew you were going to do that. What do you want cockney? Okay. Blake, say like three sentences. I'm trying. I got to get into it. Like what it's like, I got to get into it like a little bit. Like, you know, we go over there. There we go. Where you going? Okay. I'm like, when you prove my point. No, that was good. That was pretty good. What are you talking about? He just goes, if you're saying you said four words in different sequences, well, you got to give me my lines. Try it again. Try it again, Blake. Say what's up. Worse than anyone knows why his religious family fears. He's possessed by the devil.
Starting point is 00:49:11 What are you reading? What are you reading? I'm reading Us Weekly Army Hammer. Oh, boy. Why do you have Us Weekly Army Hammer at your house? I get Us Weekly. What? I don't know how I get it, but I get it. You are the weirdest guy I know. You get Us Weekly Magazine sent to your house as a, yeah. Got us here to the street. You don't fuck with Us Weekly? No, man. I don't read the fucking paparazzi magazine. Dude, your wedding is going to be in here and I can't wait. Oh, he's trying to. And it's going to be a smash, mate. Now I know who's going to leak it too. You got the Us Weekly plug. You're like, hey, hey, for 12 more free issues, I'll tell you where Adam's getting married. Listen, if you want the honest thing about Us Weekly,
Starting point is 00:50:05 I don't look at any of it except the back page. I really love the 20 things you don't know about me. They do a different person every time. That's right. 25 little facts. That's horrible. That you never knew. 25. 25. Well, look, I'm not saying you can't get there, Blake. You're just not there right now. Wow. I thought he was doing a good job. Kyle, what are you talking? He said, Kyle really just loves Blake. He says he has the nicest ass and shit. He just like, he's a really, it's a really good friend of Kyle. He's definitely the most talented. Thank you, Kyle. And I appreciate that. A lot of things. No one's going to deny that. Thank you, Kyle. Yeah, a lot of things. And doing the English accent is definitely one
Starting point is 00:50:49 compared to what you guys got going on. That's true. Nothing going on here. I'm just saying. I feel like this is proving my point. Blake can do Australian. I've heard that before, but none of us can do English. It's so hard. What if this was kind of like a, you know, like the voice or whatever? Or what's the one where you turn around to see who the voice. Yeah. What if they did it with like an accent competition? That'd be kind of cool. That would be cool. All right. So let me go. The accent. Wow. That's dope. Go ahead. Let's here go. Also, I'm about to go. Let me read something. The Marine Directory celebrating 42 years serving the needs of all boat enthusiasts from Santa Barbara.
Starting point is 00:51:36 That was fucking really good. That was actually dope. I'm into that guy. You see, you see how I wasn't putting like, I wasn't doing more days. That's better. No, that was actually good. I wasn't putting extra stank on it. I wasn't putting extra stank on it. I was just reading. That was actually really good. I'm surprised. I wonder. I liked how, I liked how like thick you went into, into certain parts of it. You know, I thought it was really good. Yeah. See, the backstory of my character is I, I, I'm from the country. I'm from a little village, but I moved to a village. Give us another, give us another reading. And I've been there for 12 years. And then just within the last four years, I've actually moved to Los
Starting point is 00:52:23 Angeles. And I love it here, mate. It's beautiful. The son, the women. Everything is ripping, the terror. I just think it's amazing here. And I don't know if I'm going to move back if I'm being perfectly honest. Honest. I think you're doing more Aussie. That was closer Aussie. Did you see how when Adams dropped out of character, he like left his body a little. He did like give me. Honest. If I'm being perfectly honest. Honestly. All right, Ders, go ahead, buddy. Okay. Yeah, break it off. So, and, and I won't be rude just no matter how bad it is. I'm not going to be, you, you, I think we're not prepared to just shit on my accent. Right. I'm not prepared. I'm, I will shit on it only if it's horrific. I can't. Long ago, ink was used to write. What we use today,
Starting point is 00:53:20 today we use iPods, CDs to listen to music. What was used long ago? This is a little girl's dress from today. It's not that bad. It's all right. Okay. Why do you sound, you sound perverted. He's really taking his time with all of his words. Yeah. Well, it sounds like he's really got a cool character going on. Like a candle in the wind. Were you reading a little, a children's book that you. Ginna Amain. Yeah, I was reading like it's something from. Oh, okay. Because it sounded like you were like talking to a child. Like you're really. It sounded creepy. It didn't sound like, like you sounded like maybe you weren't from, you were from a non English speaking country. And you just learned how to speak English. Right, right. And you were having a hard time
Starting point is 00:54:13 trying to get reading. Let me try to get Chipotle. Chipotle. Do you want to get Chipotle today? Do you want to go get Chipotle? Because you're reading a napkin. Do you want to go get Chipotle? Yeah, I feel like I would. Yeah. Do you want chicken burrito? Yeah, I could get a burrito. Do you want barbecua? Do they have bangers and mash filling? Do you want green salsa, corn salsa? A scotch egg. How do you say corn salsa with a British accent? I'm offended for British people right now. Wait, wait, wait. How do you say corn salsa? Corn salsa. Corn. How do you say corn with an English accent? Corn. Corn. Corn. Corn. I don't think they have corn in England. They don't have to say it. They don't say it. I think they don't. I don't think
Starting point is 00:55:01 they say it. Yeah, I don't think they use it in any of their traditional dishes. I don't think corn is available. Corn salsa. You're being a way out of pocket. For sure they love corn. Who doesn't love corn? Honestly, mate. Honestly, who throws a shoe? Adam, I think he was taking his liberties with having a joke there, pal. No, I don't think so. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. There's no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. There's corn in England. No, I'm not buying that. Look, I'll bastardize the language like the best of them, but they don't, they have corn. Kyle. What? What up? Have you, you got to do it. Let's hear your, break us off. All right, mate. Yeah, mate. All right, kids, give me your fucking money, man. All right, all right. Shit. Can I see
Starting point is 00:55:43 your fag? There you go. Hey, what? Probably the best of them all. Yeah, that might have been good. What you want? What are you looking at? Kyle is the most talented actor of us all. You having a slash? You want to go have a slash? Adam tried to turn it into something else. Adam, let him have it. All right, mate. What? Thanks, mate. Yes, whatever. I guess he's got the best, he's got the best hair, he's got the best face, I guess. I guess he's got the best shirt. What's he got? No, I said Kyle's, Kyle, I've said on the podcast before, Kyle is my favorite actor of all time. You just said he's the best actor out of all of us, which is favorite actor of all time. There's two different things. Yeah. Is it both?
Starting point is 00:56:14 He's the best actor out of all of us, yes, and he is my favorite actor of all time. That's insane. Damn, bro. He's tied with Ethan Hawke. I don't even like Ethan Hawke that much. Are you kidding? Ethan Hawke has his own channel on the airplane. I know, I know you love Ethan Hawke and I like that for you. Ethan Hawke is the shit. Ethan Hawke's great. Yeah, I like that you guys, I like that you guys like Ethan Hawke. That's fun for you. Is this a bird thing again? You just, it's the hawk part? You can't? It might be. It might be. I don't know. I never looked to that into it. I've never loved Ethan Hawke that much. I know you guys do. Wow. Ethan Hawke will fuck your girl. I don't dislike Ethan Hawke. I think he might have fucked
Starting point is 00:56:54 my girl. What, what don't you like Ethan Hawke? I don't even know if I know an Ethan Hawke movie. I just don't. Training Day? Let's just start with Training Day. Okay, yeah, that's a Denzel Washington movie with Ethan Hawke tagging along. Yeah, but Ethan Hawke is great in that film. He's off the chain in it. He is. Yeah, I like, I don't dislike Ethan Hawke. I'm just saying he's not. Kyle's better. If we're talking about my favorite actor, it's Kyle Newichick. Right, not Ethan Hawke. Right. Here's the thing. Ethan Hawke, Adam, I appreciate it, but I did turn, I did almost watch Ethan Hawke movie the other day and then decided not to after the trailer. Okay. It was the new Tesla movie that he made,
Starting point is 00:57:34 where he plays Nikolai Tesla. Have you seen it? Oh yeah, that movie looks wacky as hell. And I was like, I don't know if I can get on board with an entire movie like this. Yeah, it was bizarre, dude. Like, I was like, what is going on? I need more. I need more. Why bizarre? Why? Well, it had like weird interviews, mixed media, strange, like modern, mixed with back in the day. It felt like it was like all over the place. And it also looked like they shot it just like in one room with like multimedia, like things projected on him and on the wall behind him. And it seemed more like an art piece. And you don't like that. You don't like that, do you? Which, which I feel like it's sometimes when a movie feels too much like a
Starting point is 00:58:17 just art installation, I'm like, I can't get on board with this. I need an actual story. Who directed it? Some Julian Schnabel type cat? I don't know who did. It reminded me of like some early Nicholas winding riff and shit, you know what I mean? But way on on steroids, you know, like really, like everything is art. What would be an example of that person's work that you just mentioned? Drive or drive fucking rule or the what's but the what's the one before it with too old to die young? Watch it? What's the one before it with Tom Hardy? What's the Tom Hardy one? Monster, not monster Batman beast. It's called something like that, though. It replaced a boxer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bronson. Bronson. Yeah, Bronson was like really stagey. Like it was like it's like
Starting point is 00:58:58 a movie that was conceptualized for the stage, right, which is cool. But also it's like, I don't know if I can do that a lot. Right, right. It's right. Bronson. Yeah, this, the guy that did it, he's older dude 61 Michael Elmerida. I feel like I've heard that name. That's how you say it, for sure. Didn't butcher that. Say that with an English accent. Elmerida. Yeah. Oh, Michael Elmerida. Elmerida. Yeah, and it seems like he's done a ton of stuff all pretty, pretty artsy. Yeah, anything else, anything else that we would know? I mean, no, it's like a lot of shorts. It seems like he was a writer of like a lot of art house movies that I don't believe any of us saw. Just getting a big shout out here, though. Yeah. Like, is it like JFK or like natural born killers
Starting point is 00:59:44 kind of? Oh, see, now natural born killers. I was talking about that the other day. That's Oliver Stone's most artsy flick. I don't think I've ever watched natural born killers. Maybe. JFK is pretty wild. Yeah, JFK is a fucking weird one. No, not as wild as fucking natural born killers. He shot with every camera. Natty Bo. I call it Natty Bo. Go ahead. He shot with like every camera. He had every type of medium on that movie. And he was just like firing. That shit was bizarre, dude. It's just it's just bananas, mate. That had like drugs and chaos. And I think the subjects worked really well. Like it's mad. It's mad night. It's just fucking mad. It's mad. He had every kind of medium working on it. It was just crazy, mate. Yeah, baby. I'm just an Alexander guy.
Starting point is 01:00:31 I wonder if we sound like we're from, you know, like when English people say the easiest American accent to do is like a Texan accent, like the south. Yeah. From the south specifically. I wonder if we all sound like we're from some certain part of England where they're like, oh, yeah, you guys are all Westinshire. I think when there's more, I think there's more to grab on to it's easier. Like company you get you run you something like this to do might you go or something, then you're like, oh, I get what it is. But when it's subtle, your heart, you're like, where do I grab onto it? Yeah, true. I wish I had this specific link, but there's this dope ass YouTube video of this guy who's like a pro accent dude. And he just kind of like walks along the
Starting point is 01:01:15 map of England with like his finger and it switches up like his inflection and everything. It's like crazy. And you hear what all Oh, Fred Armisen does that about America. And it's fucking insane. Oh, yeah. It's crazy. He goes like in this side of the city and this I've seen that Fred fucking rules at that shit. I mean, the fact that he was in our movie for 10 seconds was a fucking godsend. The coolest unreal. Yeah. Yeah, man. He just showed up and rolled anybody out there. He was in Game Over, man, and kind of stole some scenes by not even saying anything. He stole them and we'd like him back. Yeah, Fred. If you're okay, everybody else turn, turn, turn it down. We would like to talk with Fred. We would like those scenes back because
Starting point is 01:01:58 you definitely stole them. Thank you. Everyone can turn it back up now. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, it's, it's pretty discouraging when you see how good some actors are. It really makes me feel pretty worthless. And just being on this pod with Kyle. Yeah, it's, it's, it's tough. It is tough. I don't, I don't do it enough, I guess, you know, if I truly am your guys's favorite. No, maybe that's, that's why I think you're so good as you, you're like a natural, you know. Yeah, where'd you pick that up from Kyle? Where'd you get the accent thing from? Well, I work with a lot of Brits. I, I, I've had conversations and I have looked like a complete fool when Luke Evans is like, now should I be from this part of England or this part? And I'll say doing both for me and
Starting point is 01:02:39 I'll be like, they both sound the same to me. And then he's like, no, this is this and this is this. And I'm like, okay. And then do you flex on him because you're the director? You're like, what the fuck did you just say to me? Yeah, did you do that? Did you just say no? I don't fucking think so. Then you, you like flip over the, the crafty table. That's the Brits are, those Brits are fucking solid ass performers, man. I love them. Yeah. Well, they go through a whole different thing. Like over there, they go through like school, the Shakespeare school and here they're like, yo, I did YouTube from seventh grade to high school and like, I'm good to go. I used to watch Fred Figglehorn and study him. Yeah. It's got a different, they're definitely a different
Starting point is 01:03:18 type of craft for sure. That's why they come over and they snatched that shit. They take fucking rolls. Yeah. Because they fucking, they hit it. They come to work and they, they get it done. Well, thank God, Mike Myers came with Austin Powers and took a roll back from him. So that's fucking sick. Thank God he snagged one back. Yeah, baby. Do I make you honey, baby? You do. You do Blake. But are his parents British, right? Like Canadian style? Are his parents British? Mike Myers. Yeah. I think his dad was Irish or something. Am I tripping on that? Like because that's the commonwealth, I believe. Did you guys see the Wayne's world? Did you see Wayne's world is back for some global commercial? No. Is it? No. Is it now? Yeah, they're doing
Starting point is 01:04:02 Super Bowl commercial. Yeah. Well, come on. Did we see that die hard fucking Bruce Willis commercial for the batteries? They hyped that shit. And I was like, yeah, but this one was fucking tight, dude, Wayne and Garth back. They clicked right back in. You've already seen the commercial? It's like a Grubhub something. You can look it up. I saw it yesterday. Sorry, it's Uber Eats. It's not Grubhub. It's Uber Eats. I'm a DoorDash guy. Yeah. I was like, look at these guys. They're fucking like clicked right back in. It was cool. But what's the deal? I thought the whole thing with the Super Bowl this year is like no commercials or some shit. Like didn't Budweiser pull out? Well, the whole bit of the Grubhub commercial is like, yeah,
Starting point is 01:04:41 the big bowl. Like we can't say the name, the Super. Well, that's every commercial they're not allowed to. Oh, okay. Well, I don't know. Dude, I hate that shit. It makes it makes me like dislike the NFL a little bit. I'm like, okay, just let people say Super Bowl. Just let people say Super Bowl. It's fucking bizarre that everyone has to say the big game, but they can't because the next thing you know, they're using the NFL's thing to sell their shit. So like the next thing you know, they're going to be making t-shirts and selling all that shit and they can't. I mean, it'd be like if everyone was just saying workaholics all the time and you didn't get any of that money. My mom has a shirt that she bought online that has like all workaholic shit on it and it's like
Starting point is 01:05:23 I didn't that's not even. Jetset made it. Jetset made it. Where'd you get that mom? It's like got the MOC logo on it. Like the mail order comedy logo on the end. She's got a sick ass fucking tank top and I'm like, where did you get that? I want that. I mean, I love bootleg. Well, we got to get that from your mom and then we rebrand it, reproduce it and sell it through our merch. Like T-Swift, how she re-recorded all her shit. Which by the way guys, we have merch. I feel it's cool seeing people out there with the merch on now. I posted the other day like some girl that kind of looks like goons dancing in this is important sweater. Yeah, people look great in it. They look so good. They look mad comfortable. I do dig the sweater. I wore it. I wore it for like three days
Starting point is 01:06:08 and it's really cozy. Nice. You juice it out or was it able to sop up all that new checks stank? I dug it. Yeah. No, did you ruin it through three days of constant wear or was it able to handle that punch in aroma? It handled it. It soaked it right up. See, that's how good our merch is guys. When you threw it on the floor at the end of the day, did it kind of start inchworming away from you? Well, I was at the end of quarantine and I definitely was some pungent. I was pungent and I wore it. Are you rocking deodorant these days? When I go out of the house, yeah. Like on set you rock it. You do you do flop it on. I wear it for other people. I don't wear it for myself. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I mean, that's we've had that conversation though. I will say that I've
Starting point is 01:06:51 this year I've gone more I've gone longer because I'm a shower at least once a day type of guy. Okay. Lucky. I've gone I've gone like two or three days in the quarantine where I just didn't. And and it is it is a nasty smell. Did you work out those days? No. Okay, it'd be like it'd be like that'd be gnarly. Yeah. But I've definitely worked out and then didn't show right away because I know I'm going to do a workout later in the day. Like I do a morning and then it'd be like, yeah, and then and then halfway through the day, I'm like, I'm gonna do it. What the swamp nuts and all that. I feel my nuts. They don't have sweat glands. So for real. Yeah. My shit is so swampy, dude. I hate it. I can't believe it. I hate it. You got lonely ass balls. I could
Starting point is 01:07:42 see you having some some swampy nuts for sure. It's really hot, really hot. And it's just frustrating. Like, it's like, that's why I went back to boxers. That's why I stopped wearing sacks sometimes of the year because they got it got too hot. You got to wear something a little more breathable, buddy. I was a sacks man for sure. Go shopping again. Yeah, I'm down. I'm down. Go shopping once freaking once we can. Oh my God, I can't wait. When stores are open again. It's not all on the internet. The first thing we're going to do is go shopping, Mike. Let's do this thing, mate. All right, Mike, let's go pick up some baggies. We'll go to London Square. Any take backs, put downs or giveaways, guys. Giveaway. You know, I want to apologize to the listening
Starting point is 01:08:26 audience for my British accent. If you guys can just give me, I'm going to take a week, and I'm going to come back and I'm going to blow your freaking minds, guys. Nah, we're moving on. Hey, I don't believe that. Like, I bet we're all going to forget about this within a week, and you're not going to blow anyone's mind. Much like we forgot about the Grammy bet that we made. Well, the Grammys never aired. They got delayed. Oh, it never happened? No, they got pushed. All right, cool. They didn't release the winners. No. What happened? They're just not doing the Grammys or they're going to do it at a different? I mean, to my knowledge, I think they were pushed, like COVID pushed, like they haven't announced anything
Starting point is 01:09:02 yet. Okay, well, we have hundreds of dollars on the line. So, Blake, when you figure that out, see who owes, who what, and let us know. Yeah. Okay. I would also like to take back my British accent. I don't think it was my best showing. I do think I was able to, I was trying to throw it away a little bit, but then sometimes certain words, I'd get tripped up on and I won't come back next week with it being better. I definitely will forget all about this until I listen to the podcast and then in about three weeks from now, I might bring it back up on the podcast. Okay, copy that. Cool. After it airs and you listen to this, then you'll bring it back up. Absolutely. Yeah, that's correct. We know the cycle. After hearing you guys talk about my
Starting point is 01:09:46 performances and it's great. It's awesome. And I appreciate that. I really, and you know, I want to compliment CSI for cutting me out of the last episode because made you hungry. If that were out there, I don't think it was a good performance. Oh, lit a fire under you, didn't it? I don't think I had enough to latch on to in that role and bad writing. So you're saying bad writing. Blame the writers. I think I was miscast and it started from a joke. It didn't start from a place of the heart, you know, like it was like, normally my roles come from the heart and that's why they're good. So your parents? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. As an audience member of yours, I don't know. That's why I like you. I don't think it's the heart. Well, that's why I like acting.
Starting point is 01:10:28 I like acting because when the roles come from the heart and I think that that's what shows. I agree with you. I agree with you 100%. I know where you're coming from. Something deep down in you that connects to the thing that you're portraying for sure. I get that. We're talking about the role of Carl, right? Because what else? That's the other thing he's acted in. Yes, that's the one. Yes, that's the one. Okay, yes, that was a heartfelt performance for sure. Yeah, and that came from me. That was beautiful. I think I'll apologize to everybody, including you guys because every week when we're like, all right, take backs and apologies. I don't remember anything we've talked about for the past hour and I'm like going through my
Starting point is 01:11:09 shit and I kind of always piggyback on things you guys remember and I'm like, yeah, that, that, that. But my brain doesn't work this way and I'm sorry about that. Hey, forgiven. Okay. Bro, you're all good. Yeah, I have a hard time remembering what the fuck we've talked about as well. So I wish we had podcast. Yeah, maybe our producers can just type up like half sentences that like every 10 minutes. Yeah, like, hey, maybe you should apologize for this, like possible things that they want us to apologize for. That's like, hey, you know what, me saying I'm cute, I stand by 100%. See you guys next week on the podcast. And that's it. Was that the end? Did you just end it for us? Okay, well then, guys, this was this is important.
