Starting point is 00:00:00 This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Hey, guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas.
Starting point is 00:00:12 We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. Tired and sick.
Starting point is 00:00:26 Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you. you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy. Not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel. Help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the ice.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last night, a blown call changed a game. This morning, the internet lost its mind, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened. That's where SportsSlice comes in. I'm Timbo, and every episode, we're cutting through the noise, breaking down the biggest moments in sports and giving you the real story behind the headline. And we're going straight to the source, the athletes themselves, their locker room stories, their reactions in the moment, and the stuff nobody gets to hear.
Starting point is 00:01:28 Listen to Sports Slice on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And for more, follow Timbo Sliced Life 12 in the TikTok podcast network on TikTok. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds.
Starting point is 00:01:58 honest. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to This Is Important, a production of IHeart Radio, the show where we only talk about what's the most important, bottom-line, critical thing happening on this planet. Today on This Is Important? Life is a 16% alcohol beverage, wine cocktail. sip it till you die. Sip,
Starting point is 00:02:31 hooray. Where do we think the term college try came from? Is that like being gay? I would like to take back me
Starting point is 00:02:39 saying that Lucy K. jerked off in front of me. It wasn't, it was near me. Buckle up. Yes. Sure.
Starting point is 00:02:51 Oh my God. This is the first show post the legendary performance at the Trubidor. Oh, we were rocked.
Starting point is 00:03:08 I'm still riding high. I'm rocking. I'm getting radical. I'm stage, dude. I still got a contact high from all the weed ghosts that have partied and rocked that place. Yeah. Big shout out to Will Forte for swinging through. Our special guest.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Wish we didn't get into an epic fight and we weren't able to... Yeah, we've gotten a bit of a tiff. Weren't able to interview him, but, you know, that's how it goes with us. We're not professional. We had a lot of really big questions. for him, but we'll hold him for next time he's on the pod. We absolutely will. Next time he's on the pod.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Big Will. Shout out to Will. That was a blast. That was a very good time. You liked it. Yeah, I did. It felt like we were in the pit with TII Nation. It felt really good out there.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Really good. A lot of familiar faces, some cruisers. Some real cruisers. Good to see him on dry land. Yeah, that was cool to see a lot of the cruisers on the mainland. Water trash. Still wobbling, a lot of them. Yeah, a little rocky.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Might have been their drunk legs, but... They kept it up. Yeah, it was cool. It was cool that the Vickers came out. They're maybe some of our biggest fans, the Vickers. They stayed with me, actually. Did they? I had the kids move out of their bunk bed.
Starting point is 00:04:22 They bunked in there. Oh, that's sweet of you. That's actually... She makes a crazy omelet. I got to get on a mailing list. I want a Christmas card for them. Or whatever they celebrate. Yeah, whatever they celebrate.
Starting point is 00:04:33 The Vickers. They have been to, I think, the most amount of show. shows. And if anyone else, if they're like, no, dude, I've been to the most amount of shows. Hey, well, guess what? Maybe you're sitting too far back. Because the Vickers... Yeah, come say hi to us. They're up front. The Vickers are right up front. They're letting it be known. At the very, very first ever live show, I chugged a beer with Jessica Vickers on the goddamn stage. Okay. I love that. And are you guys getting a sense of like a little bit like their royalty at this point? At this point. Yeah. Oh, yeah. We might have to start sitting
Starting point is 00:05:08 on stage. They're like, excuse me, those are our seats. That's what I was saying to Claude when she was like, oh, how's the show? And I was like, it's cool. At this point, we've done our fans are like family. They're like they are. We're hitting jugglers. Exactly. We're basically the juggalo's
Starting point is 00:05:26 at this point. And when I was saying goodbye and they're out at the bar, it wasn't even like a thing. I was like, I see guys, they looked over the shoulder. They're like, oh, what's up at him? Yeah. All right, later. Thanksgiving? You're like, obviously. I was like, do you want a photo or anything? They're like, we're actually good.
Starting point is 00:05:41 We have so many. We're fine. They take a look at you and go, not tonight. Not your best night. Yeah. Not in that outfit. No, no, no, no. Not in the leather.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Oh, you guys, we didn't like them in the leather. We're fun outfits. Oh, my God. We had so many leathers. It'll be on Netflix, right? Absolutely. Absolutely. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Netflix is a joke fest. That's right, Blake. It will be. And I also made a huge announcement that night. if you guys recall. I don't. Kind of started the show off with a huge announcement. Uh-huh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Do you recall? Does it have to do with your Peronis? Huh. No. No? I don't remember the announcement. You've been fucking so hard you got Peronis, right? No.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Barone's disease? No. My Peroni. You remember? I started the show off with a huge announcement. You know, you keep saying that, Blake, but we do not remember this huge announcement. Yeah, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:06:38 All I remember is payronies. Go ahead. Payrony sounds like a sandwich. There's a sandwich that's a parogi. Parogi. Perogi, it's like a... And a peroni is a beer. Yes.
Starting point is 00:06:52 A pierogi, I think, is like a Polish dumpling. So, Peroni's disease is a curved penis disease. With a bump at the end. Don't forget the signature bump. The signature bump. So that's crazy. I guess if I was a beer, I would never... name my beer something else.
Starting point is 00:07:08 If it's so close to a curved dick disease. Well, it's peroni and it's payrony. I know. It's too close, though. And ladies, slide into Blake's DMs, if you've ever dealt with some payronies. And give us the pluses and the minuses. No, I'm thinking, if you think you may have... How's that bump hip?
Starting point is 00:07:25 If you think you may have payronies, send me a pick. I will diagnose you. My DMs are the official payrony. Blake's DMs are open-down. I actually love this. It's got to be hard, right? Like, it only curve. It has to be hard.
Starting point is 00:07:43 Sorry, I'm not saying the pick's hat. Like, that's the prereq for sending the pick. I'm saying for the per per per ronies to be visible, it has to be raging. You know what? I'm the pro here. Well, that's what I'm saying. So for the pick, it has to be rock hard as hard as it can get. And guys, don't.
Starting point is 00:08:01 And then Blake also has to be as hard as he can get, just so he can diagnose. That's the only way. That's the only way. Oh, I will be. And here's the deal. And ladies, if your man has it, I want you guys to be taking a picture, holding it to your head like a telephone. Gotcha, bitch. Hello.
Starting point is 00:08:19 And here's the deal. Here's the deal, guys. Don't be sending me in just like, yeah, your dick has a slight tilt to it. We don't want that. I want the full curve. And it has to have that signature. That signature buck. It has to.
Starting point is 00:08:35 to have that signature book. And we're not just talking about this out of nowhere. We just did a commercial for it. There's cures out there. We just did a commercial for it. And by the way, this is something that we, you know, they ask us like, hey, do you want to do a commercial for this disease? And we're like, we don't want to do commercials for some disease.
Starting point is 00:08:52 And then they told us what this disease was. And we're like, we're the guys. We're the guys to spread. Is it a disease? It is a disease, right? Yeah, because if anyone, well, it's called Peroni's disease. So I thought the D stand for her. I feel if our fan base, we probably have the most Peroni's disease per capita.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Per cap. Adam, zero doubt. Zero doubt. Zero doubt. We're curved, baby. We got that power. We are a curve. We grade on a curve.
Starting point is 00:09:22 We grade on a curve. We grade on a curve. We're great on a curve. As you know, I made a huge announcement. It wasn't that I am a... Well, hang on, Blake. We're not done with Peronis disease, okay? because Todd,
Starting point is 00:09:35 Todd, who was on drums, when suddenly Will Forte picked up a guitar and cured our friendship that brought us back together because we were on the outs. We were at each other's throats. That was actually really scary. I was scared.
Starting point is 00:09:49 It almost never happens unless we do it in a show. It almost never happens unless we've done it on Conan. We've done it a few other times live. Cumbaya. It happens. We made a YouTube video. It almost works as like a cool way to end a show.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Yeah, almost, but you don't have to check it out. It's on Netflix. Oh, yeah. Hit the button. Hit the button. I am. Netflix is a joke fest. What a blast that one.
Starting point is 00:10:13 So, Todd just wrote, our drummer, Todd. Wow. Which great drummer? Just wrote, in the chat, Peroni's disease is estimated to affect approximately one in 10 to 1 and 11 men in the United States. So that's a lot. That's in the U.S. That's just in the U.S. So imagine what's happening in Peru or some other country.
Starting point is 00:10:35 There's some very curvy nation. Yeah, there could be some curvy. Italy. So studies suggesting the prevalence rates as high as 13%. Wow. So it's real. Well, only 0.5% of men have a formal diagnosis. We'll straighten you out.
Starting point is 00:10:50 You've got to get diagnosed. Maybe you can take a pill or something or there's some kind of injection that you can get. Well, the ad we just read mentioned. that you don't have to get surgery for it. Well, that's what I'm, that's what I said. A pill would be non-surgical. Yeah, I mean, and again, my DMs are open. I can diagnose you, just make sure it's hard.
Starting point is 00:11:12 This is going to be great. It has to be rock hard. Right. It's going to be good. So, but then I've heard that, that women love a curved penis. I've heard that. Sure. I've heard that.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Adam, when they tell you this, they're being nice. Because it hits, it hits the good spot. My penis is not curved. We've all seen my penis. Never seen it hard. Slide in Blake's... You want to see it? Well, you keep talking about it.
Starting point is 00:11:37 No, no, no, no. Donkey! No, no, no. Whoa, now we're fully donkey. No. Not today. We're don't today. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Okay, that's fine. That's fine. My DMs are open so you can send it whenever you're ready. Okay, so what was this big announcement, Blake, that you won't shut up about that? No one... Oh, a lot of you may recall there was a big announcement at the beginning of the show. Yeah, yeah. Okay, now I know where he's going to be. Do you remember?
Starting point is 00:12:03 It wasn't even like as we sat down. It was before we sat down at him. It's a huge announcement. It was before we sat down. Yeah, think about it. What were we doing before we sat down? What were we doing? We came out. We rocked.
Starting point is 00:12:14 What's part of our rock? We were, you know, yelling at, we were throwing. Adam. Oh, this now. Oh, okay. This is tectonic. This is a shift. Hey.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Yeah. Blake, I'm sorry I was poo-pooing. this big announcement. This is actually a massive announcement. It is. For Blake, this is a big deal. This is a big, big deal. For those who were in attendance, you know that I am taking my talents.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Of alcoholism. Of alcoholism and pre-made cocktails to none other than big sips, baby. Big Sips, baby. I'm a big Sips boy. I'm a big Sips boy. Right. Thank you so much. much.
Starting point is 00:13:00 You just write it yourself. I told you, dude. I'm still gonna send this. I just want to hurt. I'm drunk now. Hit the applause button. I don't have an applause button.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Yes, you do. I've never had an applause button. I thought you did. I thought you had like a... Give me a hell yeah. I think that's at the tip. Well, anyways, so I got to so everybody,
Starting point is 00:13:23 sip on. Is that what it says on it? No, that's my... Does it say that? We got to come up with it because like buzz balls, you were bawling out. You buzzed off.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Okay. I'm doing sip on. So essentially these are a buzzball's competitor? I want to say knockoff. I want to say knock off. Okay. Interesting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:40 But look at this. They're called Big Sips with a Z. Which, by the way, a lot of people would see the Z and be like, this is stupid. I see the Z and I go, this is a fun time party crew. Right. Now, is it a women-owned company? I haven't looked into it yet, and they haven't reached out to me. And Buzz Balls was?
Starting point is 00:13:59 It was. was apparently. I don't know how I feel about women co-opting balls. That kind of is our thing. Okay. And next they're going to co-op Peroni's disease. And what? We have nothing now.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Do you love him? Where do we go from there? Yeah. Thank you. Sucks. Where do we go from there? We only have so many things. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:18 But look at the flavor of this one. It's diamond. Mm-hmm. Actually, that does look poisonous, but like in a good way. In a way that I like better than bus balls. And can you hold it? closer so it's even more less in focus? Yes, even
Starting point is 00:14:33 blurrier and more out of focus, perfect. Big Sips. And so Diamond Flavor are you going to slam it, right? Yeah, everybody, sip on. Or you're going to take a big sip. Sip on Big Sips Nation. We'll workshop that. Todd is saying Sip, Sip, hooray, which I love. Sip Sip Hray.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Sip Hray. Not bad. Sip Hray. Sip Hray. Hey, Todd, guess what? You just earned yourself. Yes, points. Some points. Todd. Is that Todd's first points? Thank you. Todd is a fucking time traveler. Yeah, here we go.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Sipsip hooray, everyone. What is this? The Revolutionary War? Sipsip hooray. Well, you're a little fancy when you're drinking big sips with a Z. Yeah, you're a little classic. Wow, big sips diamond. Does it drink faster? It looks like it comes out faster.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Whoa. Whoa, that one actually, that's a burner. And there's nothing. We're recording this at 11 a.m. on a Thursday. Somebody alert Guinness Book of World Record. I think I just made it. earliest big Sips. Did she just say Dennis'
Starting point is 00:15:32 Dennis book of World Records? It's a different guy. Somebody call up Dennis. Kumbaya. I think that's a record. Dennis, I just had an 11 a.m. Big Sips Diamond flavor.
Starting point is 00:15:45 That's got to be a record in the Dennis book. Well, big sips are sold in liquor stores next to Buzzballs, correct? They're right there. Yeah, they're right there. So that leads me to believe that there's been
Starting point is 00:15:59 some very sad 6 a.m. On the way to work, big sips. Fuck it. Right? If you start your day big sipping, that's my people. That seems like one of those true alcoholics where they're like, they're filling up gas and then they look in and they're like... Maybe they get like a breakfast of keto and then they look over.
Starting point is 00:16:23 And they look down and there's a lukewarm diamond flavored. Right. Big Sips. Still on the palate, still wrapped in the palate, and they poke a hole through. They poke it. Yeah, they've got to poke the hole. They got to rip the plastic to get it to force it out. The dragon wings aren't even done rotating yet.
Starting point is 00:16:42 They're still thawing out. They're like, they ask if you sell them individually or if you have to buy the palette. And they're like, we obviously sell them individually. And they're like, so I have to buy the palette. And they're like, uh, could. I mean, you can. You could. So I have to.
Starting point is 00:16:57 That's got to be a dentist, dentist book. I'm right from resident. That's in the dentist. That shit's important. This is in the dentist book. I will say, because I had to drive to like four different liquor stores this morning to find them. Oh. Because, yeah, their bus balls is everywhere.
Starting point is 00:17:13 But Big Sips is a little more of an... New to the game. They might be in cahoots with big gas, making people drive around looking for them. Hey, well, we're trying to elevate... We're trying to elevate the name of Big Sips and get them trending. I like their... Blake, I love... you taking
Starting point is 00:17:29 I'm guessing medium-sized business not even a small business but a medium-sized business and just elevating it that's kind of cool but why are you you're not getting paid for this
Starting point is 00:17:42 once again correct um Isaac you think Isaac's listening Isaac throw in the chat if how much Blake is making donkey only if you're listening no shut up bitch
Starting point is 00:17:57 Isaac, go ahead. No, he's not making anything. He's not making anything. Not yet. Not yet. We're placing the foundation. I like that. Making anything is different than being paid.
Starting point is 00:18:09 I think he's making something. He's making memories. He's making me want to move on to something else. He's making diarrhea? Well, I will say, because it is... He's making IBS. He's making diarrhea for sure. I mean, it is cool.
Starting point is 00:18:25 As you mentioned, the Z, it does have a little bit more of a hit. pop flavor. So I wonder if this is like, I wonder if this is like Paul Wall's drink or something. Oh, that's okay. There's no way to know. We couldn't Google this or...
Starting point is 00:18:36 Like, look at this one. So Todd just threw in the chat. Big Sips with a Z are generally marketed as the more budget-friendly option. Okay, let's go. With some users perceiving them as a cheaper alternative for similar effects. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:18:50 So this is cool that this is the cheaper version than the absolute trash can beverage. of buzz balls. Hey, come on. Buzz balls? Hey, I still have love for Buzzballs. I don't think they're saying cheaper than Buzzballs.
Starting point is 00:19:05 I think they're saying cheaper than like your high end or higher end mixed, pre-mixed. Yeah, I think some of those premixed, they've got too fancy. Like,
Starting point is 00:19:14 Zip, hooray. Like the old fashions that are pre-mixed, I'm like, I don't want a classy, like, nice drink. By the way, next to like,
Starting point is 00:19:22 at the grocery store, they're like right there next to like the turtles and like the nice chocolates. I'm like, what fucking alcoholic is like, man, I'll take a fucking, I'll take a roadie. Like an old-fashioned roadie. Dude, you never know, man.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Who could be doing that? Yeah. You never know who could be looking. Yeah, who could be reaching past? Who out of the three of us is doing that? Their child in the car saying, move, stop it. You're the reason I need this. Don't touch that.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Sure. Actually, yeah, okay, you can put a few of those in the card. Put those in the car. You grab a kick cap. That's why they make them look like. Grab daddy one of those chocolate drinks. You grab your kick. candy and then grab daddy his candy too.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Fuck it. Who could be doing that? I will say going to 7-Eleven at like 7 a.m. 8 a.m. Like, searching for big sips. Yeah. What were the looks you were getting at the... Dude, I mean... That's not a brand? But by the way... No looks. No looks. No looks.
Starting point is 00:20:18 No, that's right. That's right. I feel like at liquor stores and at 7-Elevens, I feel like that's diamond dozen. You walk in at that. time, they're already reaching for it to give to you, right? Yeah, they're like... If you go for a bottle of crystal or some shit, they're like... You're looking for a buzzball? And then he's like, no, and like, big sips?
Starting point is 00:20:36 No, I say you didn't hear the big announcement. Big Sips? From the Trubidor? Netflix is a joke fest? We're big Sips game. That shook TII Nation to the core. Absolutely. Some...
Starting point is 00:20:48 But I will say... The bickers were crying. The people who get their, uh, their like, morning coffee at 7-11, those are some real fucking go-one. hards, dude. I saw some real go-hards in there. You mean most people? Yeah, a lot of people. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:21:02 Like, no, well, okay, maybe it was an elitist thing. Like, you think, like, Starbucks is where you go. But that's, yeah, that's an expensive cup of Joe. But the real working man is getting his coffee at 7-Eleven. See, see, I drink a lot of coffee and I will get a 7-Eleven coffee. I do not mind it. They actually have pretty good coffee. It's like really tweaker.
Starting point is 00:21:23 And for a while, I don't think we have the deal any longer. but punk bunny coffee, the coffee company that I'm invested in, was the official coffee of 7-11. That's right. Is there a realm where they co-lab with big sips? Punk bunny, big sips, espresso martini? Adam just signed off. Honestly, honestly, no, dog.
Starting point is 00:21:46 Nucky grandma! Honestly? No. I mean, I'll never, you know, you never say never. You never. Okay. Until now. Until weirdly now.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Yeah, you never say never. I feel like you just did. Okay, fair enough. Like, when you go in 7-Eleven, are you wearing, like, Carhart? Are you pretending like you're, like, a construction dude? Oh, yeah. You got, like, the reflective hoodie. Like, you have a real job to go to and not just a podcast three hours from...
Starting point is 00:22:15 See you guys on the site. So what did you do? You said at 7.8 a.m., we started at 11. So what did you do for... Well, I had to drop my daughter off at school, and then after that I went... I went searching for... Oh, okay, okay. I do love the idea of you going to drop off,
Starting point is 00:22:30 you open the car door, and a bunch of big sips just roll out by accident. Oops. And everyone's like... Oops, sorry. The guy from workaholics. Good luck on the science fair project. Not to be trusted.
Starting point is 00:22:44 And I also think he was going to a construction site right after drop off. Yeah, he weirdly had on, like, cat construction boots and fucking flannel. Yeah, but that's... But he is a poser, so, and that's popular. right now. Loose, butthal. Okay. You know he can't even skateboard?
Starting point is 00:23:00 He can't even skateboard. Dude, I was giving it a good, I was giving it a good college try, but it started to fuck up the heel of my foot, man. Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, Nick?
Starting point is 00:23:18 Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty.
Starting point is 00:23:28 yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it
Starting point is 00:23:44 one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was... This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, Hey Jonas, and then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential
Starting point is 00:24:02 title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smigel and Friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier.
Starting point is 00:24:25 This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Dave. and head writer Streeter Seidel help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends
Starting point is 00:24:39 on the I-heart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last night, a blown call changed a game. This morning, the internet lost its mind. Highlights are trending, opinions are flying, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened. That's where Sports Slice comes in. I'm Timbo.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Every episode, we're cutting through the noise. Breaking down the plays, the controversies, and the stories behind the headlines. We go straight to the source, the athletes themselves, their locker room stories, their reactions, the stuff nobody gets to hear.

Oh, I feel like I'm on a roast here. No, no, no, remember how it was always, there was a joke, there was a whiteboard joke, a joke that's been overused,
Starting point is 00:26:23 where someone would say something, well, one time in college. Like, they would be like doing something gay or gay at Jason, and then the person would have like a sliver of admittance and something in college. It was one time in college. We talked about that. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:26:36 Hold up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what is the college try? Like, where in college you can do anything new? Yes. I think in college, like, you really try to... Damn near everything. You're trying hard in college.
Starting point is 00:26:49 You're trying hard. It's a time to experiment. You think it's trying hard or trying new things? It's trying new things. No, I think it's hard. No, it's the college try. Okay, Adam? we might be talking about the same thing.
Starting point is 00:27:01 No, no, no, no. That new thing might be real hard, and it might have a bump on the end. You're trying difficult things and you're giving it your best. That's the college try. I think give it a college try is something you've never done
Starting point is 00:27:13 and you're giving it a college try, meaning it's a first and it's unknown. I think it's both. I think it's both. I think it's you're trying something new and you're trying it to the best of your ability. Oh, interesting. Feel free to give us the definition
Starting point is 00:27:27 of college try. Try. Yeah, Todd, what do you just play drums now? You can't fly. Come on, man. And in the meantime, big sips, uh, big sips, or buzzballs are generally, generally featured vodka, tequila rum in their cocktail lines. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:42 Well, that's kind of cool. Okay. Whereas big sips are known primarily using wine-based malt-like foundation. Malt liquor. I'm living in a nightmare. That's where the Z comes from. So somehow worse, worse than Buzzball, but. No, Buzzballs was.
Starting point is 00:27:58 wine base too. That's bullshit. Adam, you blazed me on this, bro. You just blazed me. That's bullshit. Oh, I blazed you? I'm sorry. I think Todd made this up because he loves you, but give it an old college try means to make a maximum sincere effort when to achieve something often when success is unlikely. It implies a spirited, all-out attempt historically originating from the early 1900s baseball to describe a heroic but often futile effort.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Yes, points! Those are for Adam. Well done, Adam. You're the smartest friend now. I know, you guys... You are the smartest friend. I am smarter than you guys. Can I just say something weird?
Starting point is 00:28:38 It's weird that they're like, give it the old college try comes from baseball. As opposed to from college. Yeah, that one sec went to 1900s baseball. Yeah. Because everything else is from baseball. Or it's like, he knocked it out of the park. That's true. This was the one time.
Starting point is 00:28:56 I feel like, yeah, reference. by Babe Ruth, like anything, yeah, Babe Ruth, he was kind of trend-sitting back then, though. My boy, Babe Ruth. That Bay Ruth is fucking sick. Give it the old college try. So then you're really trying to suck. Okay, got it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Got it. Yeah. Maximum effort. Maximum. I couldn't walk the next day. Fucking old college try. I gave it the old college try. Hold up.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Whof. You know, even though it was a futile effort, I gave it the old college try. What were we even talking about? And by the way, this is my fault. I'm sorry. I derailed this one. I know we all derailed, but this is... You know, I think we were talking about coming off the troubadour.
Starting point is 00:29:45 I know, but where'd the college try come from? Well, you know what this is. You know what this is? This is... Dementia. Episode 300. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Nucky Grandma!
Starting point is 00:29:56 You should have, like, a... I know that you plan for this, Blake. I know you did because it's 300. And this is a big deal. And I know that you have like, this is Sparta or something on the soundboard ready to go. I know you do. I know you watch the movie 300.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Ready to fucking go. Okay, do you guys really want to get down to the nuts and bolts of it? The nults and... Please. Todd did email me some, but our 300th episode was supposed to be the show at the Trubidor, but we didn't, it's just a lot of logistics. Oh, so you've had all these hot buttons for a week now.
Starting point is 00:30:32 No, I didn't load them. The only new. Oh, yeah, Todd is saying he emailed you a bunch of 300 ones. He did, he did. But I thought we had already recorded the 300 at the Trubidor. So the only board drop that I have that's new is... Give my cousin head! I have that one.
Starting point is 00:30:51 That's about it. What? That gave my cousin head drop from that one Kanye track. finally got it. Oh, yeah. That one is the. That one's pretty good. That's for 300. That's his 300 celebration. Well, why is that 300? Why, I don't, I'm not quite putting that together. Like, even Kanye says 300 in a song. But did he, does he say 300? Yeah, he goes, he goes 300 trojans or whatever when he's did, did, do, do, do, do. Yeah, Todd, Todd sent me all those, but I think I, I think in the email,
Starting point is 00:31:21 I, here come the Trojans, 300. That's interesting. Interesting. I like the way you're It's so cool to see the way... I don't need a bunch of Kanye drops on the board. I'm not getting put a bunch of... Just turn us in a Kanye West board. Come on now. Well, okay. You didn't have to.
Starting point is 00:31:39 He said he sent you a bunch of them, not necessarily from Kanye. And then you didn't even get one that he mentions 300, the number 300. You just... I had to go get big sips at 8 a.m. in the morning. That's fair. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Hey, Adam, take it easy. My bad. I'm over here bending over backwards. Like what? I'm bending over backwards. Like what? I'm giving it the college tribe. My whole body's got Peronis trying to do everything.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Come on. I was talking to my son the other day. We watched the trailer for 300 because he's big into like military history. And we were watching trailers from movies, war movies, and then 300 popped up. Who's his favorite soldier? Who's his favorite soldier? You think I'm listening? Oh, this is going to be the day after Memorial Day this episode comes.
Starting point is 00:32:26 comes out. Oh, so even more apropos. 300. Don't ask me to spell that word. Okay. So we watched the trailer for 300 because I'm like, oh, this is kind of like a Jason and I guess it's based on a real story.
Starting point is 00:32:37 Or a real old story. Yeah, real old Spartan. The chest kick. He goes, did he just push him down a well? I go, no, he kicked him in the chest. When he's like, this is Sparta. And I was like, you know, oldest son of mine, I think that's the most famous
Starting point is 00:32:58 and maybe the first chest kick in movie history. It can't be the first chest kick, but it is... The 80s were all roundhouses. They were high kicks and roundhouses. I don't remember a straightforward, leg-up chest kick before that. Hmm. Hmm. The 80s were roundhouse kicks,
Starting point is 00:33:21 and then when you grab the person and you roll on the ground backwards and kick them off, right? That's true. There was a lot of that. There was a lot of you throwing yourself on the ground and then kicking them off. Which I was always kind of like, what if you landed on a rock when you did that? Yeah, that would be fucked.
Starting point is 00:33:37 That would be an ouchy. The roundhouse sweep kick was a really good one where you like go down and knock the legs out. I think you may be correct because then after that 300 chest kick, it started to be used in a bunch of shit. It became like the masculine one. And then the high kick became. kind of the college try. Kind of. Yeah, it really did. It started to be like...
Starting point is 00:34:01 Okay, well, Todd is sort of blowing you up again, dude. Let's go. What, dude, Todd. Michael Keaton in 1989, delivers a chess kick to a henchman in the Ace Chemical Factory scene. Oh, shit. That is true. Todd, guess what? More points.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Yes, points! Where is he pulling this stuff out from? That's right. Fucking Batman. Hey, Todd, we, you go away? And also in the movie Roxanne in 87 and then also enter the dragon and that was 73. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:34 That's the iconic one. We've got the footprint on the chest. Yeah. Wait, wait. What is Roxanne? What is Roxanne? Steve Martin movie? I think so, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:45 There's a chest kick in Roxanne? The fuck? Apparently, a notable comedic, physical use of a kick to the chest in a fight scene. Wow. That's kind of crazy. is that the one where he has the really long nose and it's like am I tripping?
Starting point is 00:35:02 Remember that movie where Steve Martin has like a really long nose? That's Roxanne. Yeah, because it's a play on like some old play or some shit. Serenot Bergeet. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. York or Rags Rook?
Starting point is 00:35:18 You got to bail on the word when you don't know it. Serenot de Bergernaud de Bergerna. Serenot de Bergea. De Beige. There's so many. There's so many words that I've never said out loud until we're on a podcast. Like the word untell? And out loud, aloud, aloud.
Starting point is 00:35:35 What? Cyrano do not. Okie dokey. Serenot de Bergeic, I believe it is a play on that. Anyways, I remember. We are so dumb. I remember Steve Martin's long-ass nose in that shit. That shit did not have.
Starting point is 00:35:50 I remembered seeing the nose and being like, I'm not watching this movie. Yeah. I remember being out. I think I was too young. And I was too old. Admittedly, I was, I was too young to... Even though he was so silly, I didn't really fuck with Steve Martin that much until I got older. And then I went back and watched some of his stuff.
Starting point is 00:36:09 And I'm like, oh, he was wildly funny. But as a kid... Yeah, I think it was like his silver hair. It kind of was off-putting. I thought it was like a grandpa. It was crazy. You're like, oh, this is grandpa. Like young grandpa man.
Starting point is 00:36:22 Even though he was like younger than we were. were than we currently are. He's very young. Has anyone let their hair go like that in modern times? Dude. Like you just wouldn't. You just wouldn't. Leslie Nielsen had the
Starting point is 00:36:36 had the look. Yeah, but like how like George Costanza, nice thumbs up, how like George Costanza like let the hair go. People are shaving their heads and dyeing their hair now, right? People are definitely dying the shit out of their hair. Like the dude from Mad Men had kind of white hair, but he was kind of old.
Starting point is 00:36:55 by that time. But he wasn't that old. Oh, yeah, that guy was dope. What is that guy's name? John Slathery. Yeah, yeah. That dude's sick. That dude is sick.
Starting point is 00:37:05 He is fucking cool. Clooney. Clooney has let it go. Yeah, but like, Clooney... He's a hot boy. He's salt and pepper, and he was a little older. Salton people. Fucking...
Starting point is 00:37:19 Steve Martin. And by the way, what are we saying are Steve Martin's best movies here? Like, is the jerk? His best or is this jerk's just like the funniest, silliest one? I mean, I think his best is three amigos. That one is off the freaking hook, dude. I think he kills it.
Starting point is 00:37:36 It's an ensemble, but... I like parenthood. I feel like... Father of the Bride. Bowfinger. I feel like I've only seen maybe three Steve Martin movies. Hello! I've seen The Jerk.
Starting point is 00:37:51 That's good. I've seen... Three Amigos, I'll admit it, I've never seen. Really? Dude. Never seen it. I'm not a huge Three Amigos guy. The concept of the movie is off the fucking hook, dude.
Starting point is 00:38:06 It's a great, it's really dope. Like, that's a movie. It's three actors who play. Sorry, dude. That also, that movie was, that, that movie came out like two years after I was born. So the, you know. Yeah, it was like a, it was just on Comedy Central. It's almost all chest kicks, actually, now that I look at it.
Starting point is 00:38:22 There's so many chess. kicks in that movie. Serino de Bergerac, which, by the way, we were all sane, but not with enough confidence. That's true. Yeah, we blinked it.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Roxanne is a modern, clever adaptation of Sierra de Bergerac, and you just got to let it flow when you say it. Don't be afraid. Yeah, no, no, you really... None of this, you're nailing it.
Starting point is 00:38:39 You're nailing it. Which I think is the made famous because, Todd, hold me accountable here. It's like the one where someone's being told something to say, and then they say it.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Yes. That's right. Steve Martin has this huge nose. And was it the first use of that? Yeah, that, yes, I think so. Yeah, it's like... Todd's about to hit me with fucking... In Cirono de Bergerac, the Shakespeare play.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Yes. Yes, but Todd's going to hit me with fucking Leviticus or some shit. No, no, I think Shakespeare invented the whole concept. Basically the concept is, is like, you're putting words in your homie's ear because you're kind of like too ugly to say them so you send them in. Right? because his nose is so big he can't talk to the girl, so he has like a hot dude do it for him.
Starting point is 00:39:27 I think that's what it's about. I feel like big noses are taken over. Oh, his best movie is Bowfinger by a long shot. Oh, hell yeah. By a long shot. Eddie. I said Bofinger, but is he the funniest in Bofinger? He's very funny, but Eddie steals the show.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Eddie's the star. And also planes, trains and automobiles. Planes, trains, and... Oh, yeah, that's the one. That's the one for me. Watching the... I told you, dude! Watching planes trains in automobile this other day,
Starting point is 00:39:55 there's no way they would let a main character be so fucking rude in a movie anymore, so mean. When he does the scene at the airport, when he's like swearing at this lady's fucking, like, in her face. Yeah, he's just a dick. He's just teeing off on her. People are like, I don't know. It's a little too much these days.
Starting point is 00:40:16 But that's what made the movie good is that you saw this guy... Total asshole. Who we identify with in the... the beginning, kind of go off the rails. You do, because you're an asshole. Yeah. But we've all... I like how Adam's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Like, he's never been so much worse to a person working at an airport than me. Oh, my God! I never have. I've only Spirit Airlines and they don't count too. They're gone. They went under because they were so bad at their jobs. They gone. Adam, Adam waits to go on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:40:43 But you identify with somebody being so far gone that they're like... And they've gone too far. And maybe they don't know it in the moment. moment, but we as an audience know they've gone too far, and we see it. And that allows the fucking transfer of who we're rooting for in the movie. You start off being like, oh, my God, this guy's so fucking annoying about John Candy. And then you're like, oh, no, he's just like a good guy who's doing his best. This guy's kind of a dick and he's got it all and does know. Yeah, right? He's not like, because I was like, oh, who are other, like, asshole leads?
Starting point is 00:41:17 Like, I was, I'm starting thinking about, like, bit. I feel like Chevy Chase was usually kind of a prick. But he was so goofy. It was a good balance. But yes, he was a dick in real life. Apparently, world-class. True. Ben Stiller and Meet the Parents.
Starting point is 00:41:33 He's not like a asshole, right? But he kind of is. He's like, kind of. No, but in Happy Gilmore. Well, yeah. He certainly is. But he's not the lead of that one. I'm like saying, like, who's like the asshole leads where you're like,
Starting point is 00:41:46 oh my God, this dude is just a total dick. Oh, I mean. Groundhog Day. Durs when he's in stuff? Groundhog Day. Groundhog Day, he's a total asshole. Hey, hey, in Monarch, I'm the nice guy. What are we talking about here?
Starting point is 00:41:59 Yeah, dude. I've seen you with that rope around your neck. Bro, come on. I got the rope around my shoulders, not my neck. Damn. Oh, it's open. It's on your neck. Actually, season two, it gets rough.
Starting point is 00:42:10 It gets dark. Oh. Dude. No, it's not a spoiler. It's not real. Oh. But no, Groundhog Day Bill Murray is quintessential asshole. But that's the whole movie.
Starting point is 00:42:20 The whole movie is about him learning the lesson not to be an asshole. Yeah. Well, same with every other movie. Yeah. No, that's great. And Groundhog Day rocks. Scrooged. Scrooge.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Bill Murray actually was an asshole more than Chevy. He's really good at being an asshole. I think that was his... He's able to be an asshole and you still kind of like him. Still love him. Yeah, you're like I get it. Dude, Kingpin? Come on.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Oh. Legendary asshole. Not the protagonist. but the best asshole in the history of... Kingpin's an all-time favorite movie of mine. And I haven't even seen it in probably 10 years. I got to get my kingpin on. I was just not to get to Hollywood with it,
Starting point is 00:43:04 but I was just kicking with Woody the other night, dude. It was fucking cool. I saw you, dude. Here we go. I saw you, dude. It was fucking cool. And I was like, dude, all I ever, like, think about... Did he say what's up and he loves workolics?
Starting point is 00:43:18 He didn't. but I think he was kind of partying. He goes, can you grab me a sandwich from over there? Also, hello, you're a voice on the Freak Brothers. Yeah, no. Did you mention that? Yeah, of course, dude. He was so sick.
Starting point is 00:43:31 He was like, it was a really good time, but it was like kind of like. Where is this? Can you set the scene? And what did he say when you said, hey, I'm the executive producer of the Freak Brothers. I'm also on it. Did he say anything? I didn't drop it that way. I was just more like, yo, Freak Brothers, you do a voice on that.
Starting point is 00:43:49 He's like, yeah. And he's like, yeah. He goes, I do? Well, he just thinks you're a fan, dude. He totally do. Where was this? It was at the sunset tower. Is it towers or tower?
Starting point is 00:44:02 Tower. Tower? Yeah, it's sunset tower. One tower. Is this a... I thought there was a hidden one. It was for this like Glenn Meringue, Mungay, the whiskey. Yeah, it was for, what's his name's whiskey?
Starting point is 00:44:18 Harrison Ford. I drink big sip. bro. Yes, Atiba does the commercials for he did like the campaign with Harrison Ford for the whiskey. Oh, cool. Are we talking about the whiskey? Or the scotch, the scotch. I think you just said Glenn Morangate
Starting point is 00:44:31 which is like a, isn't that like a show on HBO? No. No, that was Garth, Garth Marangay. Dark Places. Hilarious. Yeah, but no, it was just like this intimate like sort of dinner kickback and it was just wild because it was like Harrison Ford and then Woody Harrelson and then weird
Starting point is 00:44:49 Did you bring your own big sips? Yeah, I brought Sips. I passed Sips out. Yeah. They're like, no, no. How fun was that? It was cool, dude. It was...
Starting point is 00:44:57 How was Harrison Ford? Oh, bro. Honestly, at that point, having those two guys, Woody and Harrison in the same... I'm like, who's cooler? It's like almost impossible to decide of those two guys who is the cooler dude. It's Harrison. Dude, Harrison's so rad, dude. He's so cool.
Starting point is 00:45:15 It's a slim margin. That is so crazy that Woody was such a... a huge fan of workaholics, so much so that he asked me to come to his house in Hawaii back in the day. And I partied with him all night. And then I spent them out at his house with his family and then ate breakfast in the morning with him. You vickersed him. And then years later, he came and visited the righteous gemstone set and all those guys partied with him that weekend. But I was out of town like that one weekend. And I was like, oh, yeah, did he mention? me, like being on the show
Starting point is 00:45:51 because we're friends, we've hung out before and they were like, no, he never mentioned you once. Dude, that's the thing. Look, no shade. Like, you can mention things, but, like, I think he lives at a really high clip, like he does super elite stuff, but also... And it's always happening.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Yeah. So, me spend the night at his house, very big deal. Me spending a night at his house for him, it's dime it doesn't. Not at all. Him spending a night at your house, weird accident. Doesn't know what this happens. That would have been.
Starting point is 00:46:20 Crazy. He's in trouble from the law. He's hiding. Yeah. Yeah. Also, he's the real deal, dude. Like, at that night, he was, he started, he lit a freaking, it wasn't even a joint. He's like, you know, we're going to be smoking weed.
Starting point is 00:46:32 It was a freaking, a freaking Thor's hammer, like, blunt he brought out, dude. It was crazy. Yeah. So it got, it got very stony, very quick. And it was like. I got to run into Harrison because he went to college with my dad. Oh, dude. Did they know each other?
Starting point is 00:46:50 It's a very small school. I don't think they knew each other. I think my dad was kind of like the evil fraternity from Animal House. Oh, yes. And I think Harrison was like a hippie at weirdly a school for evil Animal House fraternity guys. Yeah, yeah. I think he like left. I don't know if he finished there.
Starting point is 00:47:14 But I would love to drop that. And he left and kept screaming your dad's name. as he left. I think so. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. But it was a school of only like, I don't know, fucking like 2,000 kids or under 2,000. It's like a tiny college.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Yeah, he might know your dad. Yeah. Could be. That's crazy. So, I have to throw that one out there. That's a sick. That's a sick hang, Blake. And thanks for bringing up on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:47:38 A lot of times you'll do cool shit. And then it'll be after the podcast is over. And you're like, dude, I ate lasagna with the edge from you two last night. And we're like, why didn't you mention that? That would have been a cool thing to talk about. I kissed Farrell. Right. It is pretty surreal.
Starting point is 00:47:54 And it was weird, like, because we were just coming off of that Netflix is a joke brunch, which also had, like, crazy. That was wild. Like icons. These are, like, people that I'm like. That was a neck snapper. You turn around. It was wild because they invited everyone that was part of the festival.
Starting point is 00:48:12 So you look around, and there's a lot of, like, our peers, people that we know and see and hang out with the Anderson Tino. you know, the Bobby Lee's, you know, Lamorne, Phil Vaughn, like people that we know, Whitney Cummings, Nikki Glazer, but then you turn around and see...
Starting point is 00:48:32 Cheryl Underwood. Cheryl Underwood. You see Eddie Murphy. You see David Letterman. Chris Rock. You see Chris Rock. Jerry Seinfeld. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:42 So it was cool, dude. I don't know what's in the air lately. Caroline Ray. Yeah, dude. Caroline Ray. She's the shit. I love Caroline Ray. I saw her and I was like, she's a baddie.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Oh, yeah. That brunch was wild. There was too many elite people there. It was insane. It was like impossible to, even if you got in a conversation with somebody, you're kind of like, I feel guilty if I talk to you beyond three minutes because I know there's someone else you need to or want to talk to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, did anyone ever just like hard pivot away?
Starting point is 00:49:17 from you. Is anyone like... Just turn around. All right. Oh, I thought you were... I thought you were serving John and Vinny's people. Right. Yeah, all right. Someone just puts a napkin on your plate that you're eating off of and they go...
Starting point is 00:49:28 Oh, no. No, that's... No, I don't work here. Oh. You... And then they go, oh, I'm sorry. I'll hook you up. Let's go meet the guy. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:40 Oh, do you need a job? Whose brother are you? And it was at Ted Sarandos. It was at his house. We talked about this a little bit. at the troubadours, so we don't need to beat a dead horse. But it was fucking cool. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what?
Starting point is 00:50:00 We have some big news. What's the news, name? Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:36 I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL, late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends.

This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer, Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last night, a blown call changed a game. This morning, the internet lost its mind.
Starting point is 00:51:32 Highlights are trending, opinions are flying, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened. That's where Sports Slice comes in. I'm Timbo. Every episode, we're cutting through the noise, breaking down the plays, the controversies, and the stories behind the headlines. We go straight to the source, the athlete themselves. Their locker room stories, their reactions, the stuff nobody gets to hear. The laughs, the drama, the triumphs, the moments that never make the highlight real. From viral moments to historic games, from buzzer beaters to controversial calls, we break it down,
Starting point is 00:52:01 give you context, and ask the questions everybody wants answered. SportsSlice brings you closer to the action with stories told by the people who live them.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Oh, my son did a funny thing yesterday.
Starting point is 00:52:54 We were at dinner at this Mexican place down the street from my house. And it's like a little hole in the wall Mexican spot. Wokester. There's this old guy who I see skateboarding on the boardwalk and shit. And he's like old. He's probably 75. And he's got long white hair and he's really skinny. And he always goes like this man.
Starting point is 00:53:16 And he talks like this. And Bo looks up at him and just points and goes, ghost dude that's for sure his nickname and he goes ghost ghost and then he goes
Starting point is 00:53:30 oh no scary yeah yeah and covers his eyes and I'm like goodbye don't say ghosts don't say ghosts
Starting point is 00:53:38 in front of this man dude is this guy like Iggy Pop body kind of thing yeah it was yes that's exactly right just like
Starting point is 00:53:46 very lean but you know just gets barrel roll Sure. Scoot, scoot, scoot. I feel, yeah, I feel like it was probably some, like, cool skate icon, just, like, going down the street. And Blake, how many years are we from you being ghost?
Starting point is 00:54:02 Hey, we'll see. Yeah, Blake's going to be ghost for sure. Because Blake has that lean body that once he, and he is already low in testosterone. So the muscle, the muscle for him, it's going to, when it goes, it goes quick, right? So I feel like, I do it, I bet by mid-50s. You think I'm going to be like scrawny? Once your hair goes gray, you're going to lose your muscle and you're going to look like ghosts. No, man.
Starting point is 00:54:28 Anderson's, we hang on to our muscle, man. Late into life. Can you let me hang on your muscle? Anytime, brother. Let me hang on. No, you don't. Yes, hon. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:54:40 Yes, huh. Bro, if you put on muscle, we keep it on. Sorry. Hang on a second. Blake's dad is a fit guy. He's not skinny. He's not like gangly. No, but you and your dad have different body types.
Starting point is 00:54:53 Same more. Yeah, but it's still the same, same. Tell me about my father's body. The amount that Adam can really probably go deep into this is fun for me. Yeah. I'm old up. I always, any man I meet, I quickly scan his body type. I'm like mesomorph, endomorph.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Yep. Right. No, like, but I get, well, my dad's not that old. But like you're saying there's a point Yeah Men get all Anybody gets older You just start to turn into like skin and bone
Starting point is 00:55:25 I've got some Yeah my my dad is Is starting to look a little skin and bony He's also been dealing with stuff Yeah He's been dealing with stuff Yeah But I feel you specifically
Starting point is 00:55:40 Because you were skin and bones Then you put on muscle In your 20s and 30s You added muscle to your frame completely change your body type but once you get in your I mean let's say 60-70s bro I got body by
Starting point is 00:55:55 big six and the alcoholism soccer one that's right the alcoholism has taken its toll by this point then the skin and bones comes up bro what are you okay okay
Starting point is 00:56:09 I'm just saying Blake was ready to be like what alcohol okay yeah out of the three of us you're the most likely to look like ghost. I think you're just saying that because of the long white hair. I think I'm going to be... Well, that will help.
Starting point is 00:56:24 And also, you're a skinny person naturally. Ders and I, we're going to look like melted candles. We'll be those, like, fat or older guys. When you see the albino gorilla with, like, the tits that just hang. But female. Yeah, with just like the belly that, like, your tits sit on the belly, that's what we're going to be. And you won't be that. You'll be painfully skinny.
Starting point is 00:56:47 And that's okay. I don't know. I don't know. I will say, for some reason after the troubadour, you remember I, like, did, like, kind of a silly, like, stage dive? My fucking back hurt so bad for two days after that. Like, I was feeling... Well, you broke your back. Yeah. It's not even yours anymore.
Starting point is 00:57:04 No, usually I'm chill. Like, I don't have any sort of, like... It's a Yamaha. You know, residual pain. But, like, for two days after that, I was, like, fucked up, dude. Like, I had to... Vickers didn't get you? She didn't hold you?
Starting point is 00:57:17 Come on, Vickers. Next time, hold your boy up, dude. Vickers, fam. You got to warm your back up before you do a stage dive at damn near 40. That was a pretty bold, dude, that was a bold stage dive. Well, yeah, it was an after thought. The Trubador, that was our most intimate show to date. For sure.
Starting point is 00:57:37 There was 100, maybe a little more than that. Yeah. That's all that fit. It's not like we didn't sell tickets. It was 100 cap. And it sold out within minutes. Adam, it's okay. It's okay, Adam.
Starting point is 00:57:49 No, it did. It just sold out with it. That one sucked if we couldn't even get... Could sell out that Trubidor. Some people did the bowl, but like... Pod might not be as good. But we wanted... We actually were... I said to Isaac, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:58:00 we should have done a bigger venue. I didn't. We do a bigger venue. But we were offered, like, a 2,000-seat theater downtown. Right. But it was the same night as, like, Chappelle doing the bowl or something. Right.
Starting point is 00:58:13 I was like, dude, what are we... We're not going to try to sell 2,000 tickets while Chappelle's down the street. I think that's also a thing about that whole festival is like so much stuff is going on, but L.A. is so spread out that it's kind of hard to be everywhere at once. It's not like a South by Southwest where you're just walking down one street and every bar is something. That's why I think they need to kind of maybe like pick sunset or Melrose and then just
Starting point is 00:58:41 make that like the hub for it and shut the street off or something. Have you guys been paying attention? to this fest in like previous years? Not really. I kind of didn't understand it as like a festival. Right. Like this year is the first year I was like, oh, like going to that party and being like, oh, everyone's here for this comedy festival.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Yes, yes, everybody's doing something. I kind of just previously was like, yeah, there's some billboards around Netflix as a joke, but I didn't, I don't know. Yeah. No, I think they're, I think it's picking up steam. It is and they're, yeah. They're planting the right seeds. Like, it's fucking cool.
Starting point is 00:59:19 Like, so many comedians are in town. They're making it an event. I mean, it's always been an event. I guess I just didn't realize it was an event. Yes. That made it very apparent that brunch because you were like, holy shit, there is, like, 136 legit comics at this. And, like, 40 non-legit comics.
Starting point is 00:59:39 What do you? Yeah, yeah, there are a few snoozers. And Isaac. I mean, there was, like, Louis C.K. was there. He asked if he could jerk off in front of me. Okay He took me aside He's like I can't ask anyone else
Starting point is 00:59:50 It seems like you would It seems like it would be cool If I could just jerk off in front of anything I was like okay That was interesting I said I said give it the old college try And then weirdly right after that
Starting point is 01:00:02 He put a napkin on Blake's plate I don't stay up that much With what's going on in the CK universe But I was a little bit like At the thing I'm like Oh holy shit Yeah, bro is in the building.
Starting point is 01:00:17 He's really out here. Okay. He's out here. At that point. Yeah, and he jerked off in front of me. I just said it. Yeah, and he's doing a live jerk off session. That's fucking cool, dude.
Starting point is 01:00:27 It's one of his sets. It's cool. He chose you. It's definitely cool. Yeah, he just saw it in my eyes that I'd be fine with it, and I was. And so that's why it's not an issue. Yeah. Everybody's coming.
Starting point is 01:00:38 That's why I'm here. So he's learned. I said, give it the old college try, and he did. And it was all. When you guys go to a place like that, where you are amongst the funniest and many. Mm-hmm. Do you guys like the dance of like,
Starting point is 01:00:51 okay, I'm walking up to this person. Are we gonna be funny with each other? Or are we just gonna catch up and talk? Does it have to be bits? Or can it just be like, how are you? I find, for the most part, it's not a bit off. Really? Right.
Starting point is 01:01:06 That's what I found at that festival. It was mostly like just catching up with people. It wasn't a very funny event. I was like not really laughing at that brunch Oh, you didn't like Ted's speech? I thought it was pretty funny, but go ahead. Well, Ted said nice words, but yeah, it wasn't like a very hilarious event.
Starting point is 01:01:25 That's what I was kind of like. Well, that's what they, people don't understand about most, especially stand-up comedians. They're not inherently happy people. Yeah, they're all fucking miserable. They're all like, fucking, well, their lives, especially the comics that are of more our generation. or class or whatever,
Starting point is 01:01:45 they're on the road all the time. Yeah. Like this is, it was kind of a cool event because you did see, like, I know Theo and Nikki and Whitney Cummings and a lot of these people in Santino and Bobby Lee
Starting point is 01:01:58 from when I started doing stand-up and I know them from like seeing each other in the comedy clubs. Now we never, ever see each other. So it was just like a way to like, it was kind of cool to be like, oh shit, we're all in the same room again. I love that shit.
Starting point is 01:02:13 That's why I miss L.A. as far as, like, a community. Yeah. Well, everyone's gone everywhere. Even people who make movies are like, I was just halfway around the world shooting a sitcom. Yes, totally. Or I'm doing a game show in Ireland. You're like, oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:02:28 It makes sense. Welcome back. Welcome back. Check out. The sick game show. Sorry, Blake, what are you going to say? Yeah. Anything important?
Starting point is 01:02:33 No, I don't even remember at this point. No, no. No, no. Yeah. You know, it's funny you say that, though, Adam, is that I would say the actors and people with, like, an improv background, are the people who come in with more of like the
Starting point is 01:02:45 and then the stand-ups less so. Yeah, because I think the stand-ups know, like, this is what I do for a job. Like, this, I craft material. And the improvisers are idiots? What are you saying? Yeah. That's more just like, well, a conversation
Starting point is 01:03:04 is just improv, okay? Like, that's really all it is. That's why the John Gabris's of the world are just the best. I feel for the most part, standups, especially standups of that ilk, are just more confident than an actor who is trying to get cast on a show. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:25 But I guess what I'm coming from is, like, people who have an improv background, they like playing with each other, standups don't like it. They got their own thing. Yeah, that's true. Even though I know people sit around after stand-up shows and shoot the shit and have a good time. But, yeah, as I think about it. It's mostly just dunking on each other. That's why, like, comics don't get offended at, like, the roast jokes.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Because they're like, yeah, that's just backstage. We just... We're just racist. Yeah. And I, maybe I take back... It's just racist. Yeah, we're just racist. We're really backstage.
Starting point is 01:03:58 We're just really racist. Way back. And homophobic, really homophobic. Yeah, we don't like anybody who's different. You guys watch the roast, I assume? I did not. I did not yet. I did, yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:10 I'm still... I started. it. I'm still watching it. It's 25 days long. It's too long, man. It's just too long. And I think they... It was very funny. There's a lot of funny jokes. They gotta break it up with like pre-taped sketches, though.
Starting point is 01:04:26 They have to. I do think a cutaway of sorts would be good. Dude, you're just looking at this stage and you're seeing like the dead air hang in not a like cool way. And did they... It was live, right? So at least on the Comedy Central Rose, they could cut jokes that didn't, that weren't working. They could streamline it a little more. Or like you're, they, you know, you cut to the crowd and suck some of that dead air out.
Starting point is 01:04:49 So this is live. So things just like sort of hang there. It's live. I think that they've got to have like a certain amount of delay, like a two minute delay. I don't know, dude. Like in case of what? Because they're saying fucking the worst shit imaginable. Is it just if there's like a shooting in the fucking stadium or some shit?
Starting point is 01:05:07 Yes, Blake. Like, what are you delaying for? Yes. Yeah, that's exactly right. The whole delay is because on the news, like 30 years ago, some guy blew his head off. That is true. That is exactly.
Starting point is 01:05:18 I do recall that one. Todd's like, actually, Lucille Ball fucking shut the fuck up and drum, bitch. Okay. Oh, my God. I'm so sorry, Todd. I'm pissed now. Wow, Todd. Just because you got them twice, now you're feeling the claw.
Starting point is 01:05:35 Takebacks, apologies. Any epic slams? Yeah, I'd take back saying, shut up in drum. Todd, you stepped up in drum. We appreciated it. It was fucking massive. He did. We asked Todd to drum like 10 minutes before we started the show.
Starting point is 01:05:50 And he's like, yeah, I could do it. And he sounds freaking sick. Well, here's, can I dunk on Isaac real quick? That morning I woke up. And I was like, what are the lyrics to best friends? I went and looked at the YouTube video. That's a dunk on Isaac? Allegedly.
Starting point is 01:06:04 Which we recorded 11, or sorry, 19 years ago, which is so long. And I was like, oh, a drums kicks in. And that's kind of when I know when to start singing. And it also fills the whole song out. And I go, well, we're at the troubadour. That's a rock venue. We have to have drums. I call Isaac.
Starting point is 01:06:27 I go, it was at 10 a.m. Day up, day up. Day of. And I go, but we're not, the show's not until 8. Kind of a fire drill on your behalf. Right, right. And that's 10 hours away. And I go,
Starting point is 01:06:37 A little bit of a pinch. Isaac, we need a drum set. And he goes, oof, I don't know if we're going to be able to do that. It's the first thing he says. And I go, huh, why not? And he goes, well, it's the troubadour. So I don't know if they're going to want a drum set. And I go, it's the troubadour.
Starting point is 01:06:55 That's what they do. And he goes, yeah, but there's so much paperwork that you have to fill out. I'm not, this is almost verbatim. And he says, there's so much paperwork. And I go, Isaac, just get a drum set. And he goes, okay, I'll try. Punk rock, getting radical. And then obviously, 15 minutes later, he was like, yeah, dude, it wasn't a big deal at all.
Starting point is 01:07:14 Yeah, what? And then he says, I sometimes forget that this is Hollywood. And if you want a drum set, you could just have a drum set. And I'm like, uh-huh. Yeah. He's been in Norse County too long. Yeah. Too long.
Starting point is 01:07:26 So we got the drum set. And Todd, we were like, who's going to be our drummer? Are we going to have to find a drummer? And Todd stepped up. And he was like, I fucking got this one. And then just so casually played really good drums. Yeah. It's so cool.
Starting point is 01:07:41 That's the coolest. After seeing that happen and Todd just really man up on the skins like that, I'm like, it would be cool to do. Man up on the skins. Like, on your skin. Go ahead. Okay, okay. Here you go. I'll give Adam points for that.
Starting point is 01:07:53 Yes, points. I've said funnier stuff earlier in the podcast, but yeah. Well, those are, that's delayed. It's different. It's different. That's a tape delay. Man up on your Peroni's skin. I would love for us to do like a music forward live show
Starting point is 01:08:07 where we kind of like really set aside sometimes. We do menergy. Yeah, we do the whiz, the portal opens up and the wizards come out. Maybe the dojo bros show up. Dojo bros. I'm just, I'm starting to imagine Adam, the day of the performance going online to look at the words for all these songs and going, we need a drummer.
Starting point is 01:08:26 We need a xylophone. We need a fucking pom-poms. You're fucking disaster, Michael. Dude, Menergy, I actually... We need an owl for the Wizards to help us. I looked at the best friends, and then Menergy was right there, so I'd, like, listen to the Menergy song. Great track.
Starting point is 01:08:45 It's a great song, but we could not memorize those words. Even on the day. No, we would have to rehearse. We would actually have to rehearse. We would not be able to do day-of. We would have to go, like, two days before. Any takebacks, any epic slams, any sick giveaways? I think I took back my takeback of my takeback.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Yeah, that was nice to take back me saying that Lucy Kay jerked off in front of me. It wasn't, it was near me. Shut the fuck up. It wasn't exactly in front of me, allegedly. Be-twixed. Allegedly. Todd, what's betwixt to me? And I would like to just say to all my big sippers out there, you know, life is a 16% alcohol beverage, wine cocktail.
Starting point is 01:09:29 Sip it till you die. Sip, hooray. Sip it till you die. Sip, sip, hurrah. Sip hurrah. That's another episode of... Happy 300. This is important.
Starting point is 01:09:48 300, boys. Can you even believe it? Oops, winning. I can. Not. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe.
Starting point is 01:10:04 I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts.
Starting point is 01:10:15 We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it, but, you know, tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite, unhumored me with Robert Smigel and Friends, me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier.
