Starting point is 00:09:40 I'm serious. I'm serious. No, we're going to have a really good time. Of course, if there's a fire, get up to these exits over here. And we found out in Canada, exits are red. Exit signs are red, which means don't go into this in America. But you guys do things a little different. I like that.
Starting point is 00:10:08 All right, we're going to have a great time. It's the last night of the tour, so you know what that means. We're going to wrap it up early and get home as quick as we can.

Starting point is 00:12:23 Got to remind myself to stop doing that. What are you doing here in Vancouver? I mean, it's closer to the North Pole, I assume. Oh, yeah. It is closer. I mean, I'm here to shoot a pilot. Which one? Some fucking bad guy.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Oh, so he's like a smuggler or something like. Yeah, I don't want to shoot a nice pilot. Yeah. Oh, good, I found a little step. I should be sitting on that. This feels good. It's like you got a stool. My stool sample. Those of you who don't know, ho-ho is the...
Starting point is 00:13:27 Sorry, I was swallowing. That's why it was delayed. What were you swallowing? My cum. I don't know why I asked. It's almost like I was complicit in that. Sorry. This creature next to me is a dwarf.
Starting point is 00:13:57 No, what do you call? Yes again, motherfucker. Sorry, an elf. What's the difference between an elf and a dwarf? An elf is a dwarf he'd like to fuck. Wouldn't that be dilf? Is elf an acronym for that? Is it like...
Starting point is 00:14:20 Yeah, it's elf I'd like to fuck. Oh, ho. You work for Santa Claus. Mm-hmm. That's my boss and my daddy. Wait, we haven't heard that before. He makes me call him that. You're what you call the naughty elf.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Mm-hmm. I deliver toys to the bad girls and boys, like guns and knives. Right, so... Death stars. Death stars? Yeah, death stars. Like death star toys or actual... Like ninja stars.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Oh, oh. That caused death. I don't think you call... like death guns and death knives. You can. More to the point. That's true. Maybe people would start understanding why everyone needs one. No, okay, let's not get political.
Starting point is 00:15:26 I know you're constantly talking about how you want to eradicate gun-free zones, but let's... I'm very political. Yeah, are you really? Uh-huh. Who are you supporting in the upcoming U.S. presidential election? Whoever's an asshole I can fit inside. So Ho-ho is... Hello.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Hello. Hello. You work for Santa. Now, not all children get gifts because Santa has his naughty list and his nice list. Yeah, and he gives coal and naughty kids. Yeah, which is, you know, in this economy. Worth a lot? What?
Starting point is 00:16:11 I don't know. But you decided that was wrong, and you decided to give gifts to all the bad little boys and girls. Yeah, they deserve something they can play with. They're not that bad, right? They are. They're little shit heads. I love them.
Starting point is 00:16:28 And why did you get interested in this? I mean... Well, because I felt sad for them. Every morning, I'd watch them open their little stockings and just get little shit coals. And I wanted them to have something fun to play with so they can torment their families. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Every morning. Every morning. Do you have videotapes of all the previous Christmases? Yeah. Yeah, every morning I watch every kid for all a year. Yeah. My favorite show.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Do you get TV up in the North Pole? Mm-hmm. What do you get? Everybody loves Raymond. That's it? Yeah. Santa loves it or something? Yeah, he does.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Yeah, does he relate with Mrs. Claus? Always arguing? Oh, yeah, totally. And his voice is like Ray Romano. Santa's voice is like Ray. I know that's not true. I've spoken to Santa before. Yeah, and his wife is just like the wife on that show.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Oh yeah, Deborah? Fuckable. Deborah? That's her name. Okay. That's the only TV show you get and you don't know her name? I don't pay attention. I'm working. Do you make the guns and knives?
Starting point is 00:17:51 No, I buy them on the black market. From smugglers? Yeah. Yeah. It's cool. Yeah, it's very cool. It's very cool. Very cool.
Starting point is 00:18:00 What do you think? No L. Very coup. Yeah. Now you got it. And what brings you to Vancouver, though, I mean, other than shooting this pilot. No, I really am shooting a pilot, actually, a TV show. Really? What TV show?
Starting point is 00:18:15 It's like a reboot of a, it's a classic 80s sitcom. Oh, boy, which one? Punky Brewster. Really? Punky Brewster. And I'm punky. Because you're so short and adorable? Because I'm so spunky. Meaning.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Full of spunk. But yeah, I get adopted by an old man, played by Santa. How did they land you two? We both begged for it. Santa feels he's not represented properly on TV. Oh, okay. He doesn't like the Coca-Cola image of himself. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:01 Yeah. Yeah. The idealized, nice old man image. Yeah. I've talked to Santa before. He's very profane himself. I would say so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Yeah. Well, that's so interesting that they were able to land such two big stars. This is the first TV show actually starring Santa. Mm-hmm. That's amazing. Yeah. And it proves that he's real. Once and for all.
Starting point is 00:19:22 For all the non-believers. Right. How many episodes do you hope to do? Five. Not a big order. Sucks. And I only get paid $2. For the whole thing?
Starting point is 00:19:35 Uh-huh. I don't use real money anyway, though. Oh, really? There's no sense of, like, barter or exchange up there in the North Pole? There is, yeah. It's all through physical contact. I almost hate to ask this, but what costs what? What do you want to buy?
Starting point is 00:19:55 Like, you know, some reindeer treats so I can feed Rudolph. You got to suck Rudolph's dick. That's a reindeer treat all by itself. Uh-huh. For you. Rudolph doesn't enjoy it. No, he hates blow jobs.
Starting point is 00:20:14 He likes regular sex. With people. What's the deal with that nose of his? It's a pimple. Really? Mm-hmm. And if he pops it, then he loses his job. No more Christmas.
Starting point is 00:20:36 Oh. Yeah. Poor Rudolph. We keep putting oil on it. Uh, so how long are you here in town? I'm here for like two months. Two months. Yeah, what should I do while I'm here?
Starting point is 00:21:01 I don't know. I mean, I'm not from here, but I've done, you know, my share of, you know, going out on the boats and riding around the park. Who'd you go with? I went with my ex-girlfriend. What is she now? She's my wife now. My wife.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Okay. I'm not asking for that. You begged. I didn't beg. You begged. You've led me right into it. For the HAL FM listeners, you were on your hands and knees. It's the new take my wife, please.
Starting point is 00:21:41 You're a fan of comedy history? Oh, yeah. I'm a big buff. I fucking love it. I love comedy. I don't care. I love it. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:21:50 I love it. I don't care. Okay. You don't know my favorite comedy? Yeah. The live O.J. Simpson trials. Now, ho-ho. Those weren't funny.
Starting point is 00:22:03 I mean, a real tragedy happened. Did you see him try to put the glove on? Yeah. It was way too small. Funny shirt. Funny shot. Funny shot? Funny shot. That's the only comedy part, though,
Starting point is 00:22:19 in the whole thing, him just kind of going. Yeah, it was really funny. He's a good actor. That was a long-running show, too. That was like eight months. Yeah, I loved it. Yeah, then it got canceled. I know. Then it got picked up again. That's true. Well, good luck with your show. I'm really looking forward to that.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Thank you. Yeah. I'm excited. What are your lines? Do you, I mean... You want to do, like, a scene from it? Yeah, I'd love to. Okay, you say whatever, and I'll say what my lines are. Okay. Wait, this isn't going to match, though.
Starting point is 00:22:55 It'll be fine. All right. And I'm Santa, and this is like Punky Brewster. Yeah, exactly. Let's see. Daddy. Hello, Punky. That's what she said.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Punky? Would you like to take a trip to the museum, Punky? I said no. Right, Punky, I'll go to the museum without you. You're cocky. I'm saying my lines, and you're saying whatever. Okay. I'm going to go.
Starting point is 00:23:40 start my car. Well, it worked. Well, this is going to be a good show. Yeah, I'm excited. Yeah. Trying to suss out the plot of this one. Yeah. You don't want to do homework, and his car doesn't start.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Yeah. Then this hot babysitter comes over, and she knows how to fix cars and do homework. And then my dad fucks her. See all the nudity. All of it? Yeah, including mine. I'm not even in the scene. I'm getting my diaper change in another room.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Why do you wear a diaper, ho-ho? Ho-ho. Because I shit my pants otherwise. You're a cognizant, and sentient human being. I'm playing a kid. Oh, you're only shitting your diaper in the show. In the show. He's changing and watched.
Starting point is 00:24:32 But Punky Brewster didn't shit herself. It's used to you. I guess I just don't get you kids. Yeah, exactly. Gee whiz. Well, good luck. I really... Thanks a bunch.
Starting point is 00:24:48 Good luck for you. I wish you. you success. I really do. I wish you success. Psych. Well, Ho-ho, can you stick... Oh, ho. Can you stick around and be my sort of my co-ho? Oh, co-hoos, yeah, for sure. Cool. Cool. Well, we let's, why don't we get to our next guest? What do you say? Totally tubular. Well, this is interesting. He's a musician. What? I love music. Yeah, and he's, he's, uh, he's, uh, he's, uh, from Vancouver here. He lives in Vancouver. Cool. Can you believe it? And he sells out, uh, you know, huge places just like this. All
Starting point is 00:25:29 He's not even wise lonesome. And he has a new record called Club Meds. I first met him when he was on the show quite a few years back. Please welcome Dan Mangon. Dan. It has really never been easier to be the biggest bummer of any show. You're usually the biggest bummer of your own show. Tell me about it.
Starting point is 00:26:07 I go backstage and I cry and cry. That's what Scott does. Fuck you, ho-ho. People go see your shows to have a good time, right? That's the funny thing. People ask me to sing at their wedding, and I say, that's supposed to be a happy day. It doesn't make any sense. Do they ask you to sing your own songs or songs that they...
Starting point is 00:26:34 Yeah, that's the dumb thing. Do you have a typical song that people go, oh, that's... I love that song, that's about love or something. Yeah, yeah. I have a song about robots from a long time ago that... I get sent quite often videos of kids in the bath singing that song. It's really repetitive and it's really easy to memorize. And I have all, like, people, I don't want to get rated by the NSA.
Starting point is 00:27:03 All these, like, videos of toddlers in baths naked. Because, like, I think parents, they send it to me thinking it's really cute, and it is very cute. Like, here's my kid singing your song. And then I'm like, well, I don't want this to be on my computer. Because... It's a very weird collection. Yeah. So instead you put it on a hard drive in a safe?
Starting point is 00:27:23 Yeah, it's like... Passcode, 6-9, 6-9, 6-9, go-go-gaga. Dan, it's so great to see you again. We had dinner before the show. I'm a big fan of your record. I didn't know your music, and then... I don't even remember how we got hooked up, but someone sent you... I think, yeah. ...sent me your record. It was a funny experience because I was in L.A. and I think I told you...
Starting point is 00:27:52 you about this after the fact, but I didn't know who you were. I didn't know about your podcast. And I got like, you know, an email saying, oh, you have some media to do today. You got to show up at this address. Some content. Yeah, yeah, I have to go and, and I was really tired. I was like, oh, I don't want to do this shit. And then I showed up, and then Sarah Silverman was there.
Starting point is 00:28:13 And I was like, who the fuck is God Occurman? This is happening. This is, Jesus. And, yeah, I was, I fell softly into your arms. Aw. Well, I love your stuff. I... Thank you.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Your last two records are very meaningful to me. They're great records. And, you know, I'm so honored that you would join us here. And I'm sorry that you have to share the stage with this piece of shit over here. Trust me, I'm used to sharing the stages with big pieces of shit. Exclusively. Yeah, we have a litmus test for the band. And if you can't suck a reindeer's dick, you don't...
Starting point is 00:28:49 You can't get in. Oh, good. Yeah. I like that test. So, Dan, you're going to play a song here for us right now, right? Yeah. I'm going to do a brand new song. Brand new.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Brand new song. Can I get some of that up here? That's fine. Yeah, it's a new song. It's going to go on the radio soon, hopefully, like in a couple of weeks. And this is how it goes. It's probably a bad call for a comedy show. It's called Raced.
Starting point is 00:29:27 the bottom. And so the artist screams into an empty cup. He says that you're a soulless bunch, but you could still wake up. And the capitalist says he's born to be free. He says you're poor, my friends, but you don't have to be. We don't know. And what? This is evidently to the bottom.
Starting point is 00:30:21 We don't. I don't know what to say And so the thumpers preach Both love and hate They say you're naughty filth But you could still be saved And the people wait Well to ring
Starting point is 00:30:50 They say we need a song Like every generation will repeat the last Put a halo on a figurehead of photograph Resist a little bit and then become the man Dreaming of a simpler time Time occurs to me that the past is hypothetical fantasy and nostalgia just ain't what it used to be. So here's what we don't know what evidently to say. I don't know what to say.

It's like his, like, Tourette's thing. He just goes around saying that. So do you have a new full-length long player coming out, or what's happening? We're about to surprise announce something.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Is this a exclusive? Yeah, sort of, yeah. But it's not like a full length. It's a bunch of stuff jammed together, a collaboration with another singer and a cover of a Robin song. Which one? Let me see. Dancing on my own, no.
Starting point is 00:39:04 That is a good song, though. Call your girlfriend. Right now? Oh, Jesus. No, it's a song called Hang With Me. Oh, wow. That's a good song. Very nice.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Don't tell anyone internet recording. Shit. When are you announcing it? In like two weeks. Oh, okay. Keep a lid on this. Uh-oh. It'll be like, oh, that guy we haven't heard of announced something I don't give a shit about.
Starting point is 00:39:34 That's what they'll think. Can you imagine the internet headlines? Who gives the shit? Finally, pitchfork will have something to write about. Yeah, I always thought that was funny. You'd hear some band who was releasing their first record and they're totally unknown. They're playing to their cousins and their cousins' friends
Starting point is 00:39:58 at a tiny little club. And they're like, yeah, you know, I just didn't want our album to leak. And I'm like, I mean, you too doesn't want their album to leak. but I think you want your album to leak as far and wide as possible just so somebody will come to your show. It's kind of how I feel still. It's great that people are talking about you. So if the word gets out, then there you go.
Starting point is 00:40:17 It's a leak to the bottom is what it is. A leaky bottom. Slurp, slurp. Essentially anal seepage. Okay. Okay. So when does, I mean, it comes out in a little bit. You're announcing in a couple weeks.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Comes out in a little bit. That's very exciting. And you say it's not a long player, but it's more like an EP or something like that. Yeah, exactly. I feel like I've been kind of confined to the album thing for a long time, and it's like you're writing
Starting point is 00:40:49 or you're putting together or you're spending X amount of dollars to make a thing, a record. How much money do you spend on a record? I usually download them for free. No. You know, you'd have to ask the Canadian government because they know.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Good old Canadian. Do they subsidize? Oh, totally. Yeah. It's amazing. You guys don't know what you're missing. It's the best up here. Oh.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Like if you fall and you get hurt, you just go get it checked out, man. And it's like it's good. They just do it for you. It's awesome. But now what they say, you know, the people who are against this in the States, what they say is, well, you gotta wait a long time.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Or the doctors are terrible. What do you say to that? Those people are idiots. Not to get too political here, too political here, but I... Get it, let's get political. Hello, join in on this. Trump, Trump, Trump!
Starting point is 00:41:50 Like, people talk about like, oh, it's like, it's less free up there because you don't get to choose your doctor, which is the opposite of the truth. That's incorrect because up here you can go to any doctor and it's all free. Whereas in the States, you can only
Starting point is 00:42:06 go to a doctor that's part of your care package, otherwise it doesn't count, which is actually less freedom. him. Mm. Just turn that shit outside down, you know? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:42:18 Who's your doctor? Who's your daddy? It's the same person. Our visits are very good. He's like, didn't you just get a colonoscopy last week? I'm like, yeah, man. Again, again. It's good.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Again, slurp, slurp. Well, Dan, it's great having you on here. Real pleasure. You can stick around, talk to some of our other guests. I'm going to stick around, yeah. Fantastic. And you're going to sing another song a little later in the show as well.
Starting point is 00:42:56 All right. Fantastic. Dan Mangan, everyone. We should get to our next guest. And Dan, I think you're going to be very interested in this because he also was a musician. He was in a European rock band in the 60s. Please welcome John Lennon. John Lennon.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Sure, right there is great. Yes. Okay. All right. Hello. Hello. Hello, John. Well, I was going to say, welcome to be here.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Thanks for having me. Have a seat. Thank you very much. I forgot. That's right. You're like a sitting vampire? I'm vampiric when it comes to sitting. You have to be invited. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:58 But I won't bite your neck. Now, wait a minute. John, this is Ho-Ho. Hello. Hi, Ho-Ho. Did you ever give a toy? toys to John Lennon here? I wonder if he was a naughty kid. Oh yeah, well, do you remember what you got
Starting point is 00:44:13 for Christmas growing up? Yeah, I remember I got to deflated soccer ball. He was just a little bad. And this is Dan Mangan. He's another musician. Hello, Dan. Oh, a musician. That would explain the guitar. You know, I have a guitar of my own. It's fantastic. It's got to...
Starting point is 00:44:33 Do you ever use a whammy bar? I don't see one on there. You wouldn't don't on an acoustic, but that's a musician. talk. I bet half your audience has no idea what I'm talking about. They just tuned out right then. No whammies! Well, exactly. No whammies for me.
Starting point is 00:44:50 At the moment, my whammy bar connected to my guitar is at my friend's house. Are you more upset about the whammy bar? Normally people would say my guitar is at my friend's house. You're like, my whammy bar is at... My wami bar attached to an electric... A fender stratacaster.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Oh, good guitar. Good British. Great. Mm-hmm. It's at your friend, so. Who's your friend? My friend is my old drummer for my old band, and I haven't seen him. I've seen him recently,
Starting point is 00:45:15 but he won't give it back to me, you know, the guitar. The band is... The band is the European band The Beatles. Was, was, we don't tour anymore. We don't even see two of them. And the drummer's name is, of course... Too soon. Oh, the drummer's Ringo.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Ringo star. Sure. One of the best drummers in the world. In my opinion, in a lot of people's opinion. Well, there's smart people then, whoever you're talking about. I was looking for a place to put my foot. Yeah, there is no place to put feet here. You've got to go really high up.
Starting point is 00:45:52 I got the best one. Yeah. Yeah. There you go. Thank you, Dan. I've always wanted John Lennon's foot on my stool. That was uncomfortable for me because I was, my hamstrings, so tight from jogging this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:46:13 You jog? This afternoon. You'd jog, too, if there was a guy with a gun. Hey. That's bringing back a lot of bad memories for John. No, this is a part of my life. I want to forget. It was very painful for me
Starting point is 00:46:30 physically and emotionally. When you died? When I died. Right. When I died. If we could move on, whoever's hosting this could really move this. Oh, it's me.
Starting point is 00:46:41 But I, just so. Dan knows what's going on. You were dead for four years. Right. And I came back alive in 1984 because I liked the title of that book. Did I have it? I'm going to read it. I have it. Now I've got the library card now, so I can go down and get...
Starting point is 00:46:56 When did you get the library card? Well, it's a little embarrassing. I got it back in October. Why don't you just buy the book? You know, sure I have a lot of money, but purchases like that when I can get it for free at the public library. It's just not being smart with your money.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Plus then you have a house with a book in it You know instead of a clean nice clean house Right you know those That's a good point You don't want too much clutter Because then you get a book and then the next thing You know you've got a T set right next to it And then you're oh there's two things here
Starting point is 00:47:30 Why don't I just throw my coat down And the next thing you're emailing your friends Check me out this week on hoarders So John what are you doing in Vancouver? I mean, I've seen you on several stops along the way here on the tour. Well, I'm taking a little bit of a vacation. Ringo and I split up for my fishing trip. He had to go back home.
Starting point is 00:47:55 That's right. You were fishing in Denver. Denver, Colorado. You have a fish shirt on that says Colorado. That's right. It's a picture of a fish. Right, and he's got a hat on and a pipe in his mouth. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:48:09 How's he going to smoke underwater? That's your target audience here. Yeah, no. You can make shirts with any animal with anything in their mouth. No, you can't. I couldn't, but I'm sure somebody could. So you and Ringo were in Denver, you were fly fishing. Right.
Starting point is 00:48:27 Right, and you hurt your toe. I hurt my toe. I got stung by a bunch of bees, 30 or 40. And we didn't, you know, we didn't catch a thing. I'm so sorry. Well, we had no idea what we're doing. I had the only bug we could catch, because you know you have to make a lure.
Starting point is 00:48:44 I caught a butterfly. You caught a butterfly? The degree of difficulty on that is very high. Well, it was tough, but I had a good net. Oh, okay. Now with the pole. With the net. Right.
Starting point is 00:48:59 Oh, yeah. Oh, I see what you is. I caught a butterfly with a net and then made a lure out. Okay, I see what you're saying. And you see what I'm saying. Yes. Yeah, we understand.
Starting point is 00:49:09 But do they see what she's saying? That's not how you do that joke. It's just, that's what she said. No, isn't it, you know, if someone says, you know, I've got, I've got something in my mouth. Oh, isn't that what she should have been saying? I don't know. Look, I've seen the British and American office.
Starting point is 00:49:37 I think I'd know. Really? Not a lot of people can claim that. So you split up with Ringo and then why did you come to Vancouver? I'd never been up here before. I knew it was a nice place to be. And I heard there was orca whales out in the water. Orca whales.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Right. And I said, well, you know, I've seen those only on logos for theme parks. You've never gone into the theme park? No, I've just driven by it. So, geez, if I only had a coupon, it would be worth it. Why are you so cheap? No, listen, I'm not cheap. I'm saving my money for a rainy day.
Starting point is 00:50:21 There's an orca library here. You can just borrow one every now and then if you want. Really? Now, as, you know, it's just a tourist, I don't know if you're lying to me. What would I do with it? I'd probably, you know, try to recreate some of those free willy scenes.
Starting point is 00:50:39 With you as the kid, kind of go like this? Yeah. And you're jumping over you? Right. And I'd try. I think that's the whole movie. That was just, that was the only scene in the movie. It was the first fully slow-mo movie.
Starting point is 00:50:52 If my cinema history serves me correctly, I tried to take a class of Columbia. You watch movies and there's always slow motion in it and everyone's fine with it. What if there was fast motion in every movie? It was just people walking. Hey. Hey, come here. Hey, well, why don't you get over here?
Starting point is 00:51:07 Oh, don't you want the blue pill or red pill? But somehow everyone's cool with slow motion. Did you say blue pill, red pill? Yeah, hey, hey, Neil. You a fan of the Matrix? I love them. I love the, I, they get better as they go. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:51:29 But, you know, I haven't seen them in a little bit. So you came up here just because Orcas were up here. Right, and I just, and I'd never been, and I want to take some time out and have a little fun. I needed a vacation for my vacation with him. Sure, yeah. Plus, you know, as I told you, I'm trying to find a job, so I needed a little, I just want to decompress fully before I went on the job hunt. What job are you looking for again? Anything, really, but I need, you know, I need my weekends free.
Starting point is 00:51:58 That's not optional. Non-negotiable for you. Right. You got to only work Monday through first. Right. Exactly. Right. What can you do?
Starting point is 00:52:07 What are your special skills? Well, you know, I can play the guitar and I can sing songs. You can inspire Beetlemania. Ooh. That's true. We did that once back in the 60s. Everyone went nuts for our band. I remember.
Starting point is 00:52:25 Yeah. Because, you know, we were really rock and roll stuff, you know? People still like the Beatles. They still revere the Beatles. Right. You know that number one album, that album number one? Yeah, number one, yeah. It's selling like crazy.
Starting point is 00:52:45 And somebody told me, a friend of mine. What friend? Well, he was in the band, this friend of mine. You're talking about Ringo again. Ringo, right, it was Ringo. He said, hey, you know, I was down at the library, the New York City Library, and they've got a number one album there. So, you know, if we do it right, we can keep taking it out and switching it off.
Starting point is 00:53:07 own it almost. You must already have it. I have it downloaded, but I really love to have a physical disc. Why do you need a job, by the way? Just for something to do. Yeah. Well, you know, I mean, you've been now alive for so long, and you're not going to be dead. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:31 Like, can you die again, or do you... Yeah, I think I can die again, but come alive if I want. Right. When you... Let me get into some details about this. If you were to get, like, smashed by a truck, would you come alive and you would be all mangled? Well, no, because, you know, I don't have that hole in my body anymore
Starting point is 00:53:51 where the bullet went through. So you're just, you're healed when you come back. You healed up, right. Yeah. Chill. But if, you know, you get flattened like a pancake, it takes a little longer. To inflate. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:03 What? How does one get flattened like a pancake? You know, if you're walking down a street, or if you're over at, if you're shooting, the free willie movie. And an orca falls on you? That's right. You'll fall flat.
Starting point is 00:54:20 Like a pancake. Hey, you know, waffles are flat too. No, they're not. I think you're thinking of crepes. Maybe I am thinking of crepe. What is a waffle? You put a spoon, you put milk in a spoon, right? Milk in a spoon.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Have you ever eaten anything before? Now, here's a fun fact about me. I've never had breakfast. Is it because how late you get up? I'm always so sleepy in the morning. Just, you know, unless I have my coffee, I'm a monster. Give me a cup of coffee and I'm out the door. I do everything in the last minute in the morning.
Starting point is 00:55:00 I never learn. Did you write that song that woke up, got out of bed? That's right. Yeah. Yes, put a comb upon my head. I found my way downstairs and had a cup. about what, yeah. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:55:11 I can't do breakfast. I'm already running late. What about a waffle? Notice there's no mention of eggs in the song. Right. But we had an egg song, we had a song about an egg man. Scramble eggs. Oh, and the Eggman.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Right. Yeah, that's right. Now, but Paul, did Paul write both of those? Or did you write the Eggman? Who ended up writing those? I think it may have been George Martin actually said. He was actually at the typewriter. But we were all sort of circling around him.
Starting point is 00:55:36 We would write our songs together, all of us. One word at a time. George R.R. Martin? No, George Martin. Ho-ho is confused. She's thinking of... Oh, I thought I said something wrong. Yeah, George Martin, R. A fifth beetle.
Starting point is 00:55:55 She thinks George R.R. Martin, the Game of Thrones author, is who you're talking about. Oh, wouldn't that be something? Got up. Said hi to John Snow. Got a cup of wine from... Tedarius. Keep going.
Starting point is 00:56:16 Well, I don't want to give any spoilers, but I know one. Talk about Hodor. Scott, that's what I didn't want to say. For those of you who haven't seen the latest Game of Thrones,
Starting point is 00:56:33 Hodor's fine. Haudor's fine. What happens in the everybody loves Raymond finale? I haven't caught up yet. Yeah, those two twins they have They end up going off to college At a young age
Starting point is 00:56:49 They were like eight at the time Right, but they were geniuses In the last season they got really smart That was the whole last season Was just about them like, you know, doing math problems Yeah, I don't think Peter Boyle or Ray Romano show up at all In the last season Or maybe I'm thinking of the sweet life with Zach and Cody
Starting point is 00:57:09 That's what you're thinking of I get those confused Yeah So now Dan here is a musician and you're a musician you know, what do a musician Oh, we'll duet on something Oh, great, all right
Starting point is 00:57:23 Do you know any Beatles songs, Dan? I do. Which ones do you know? I will. I will, that's a beautiful song. Yesterday? Yesterday. I've just seen a face.
Starting point is 00:57:36 Oh, that's a good one. Actually, when I was eight, I learned the entirety of Abbey Road on the piano. Wow. Really? That was like my thing, and I got so excited that I could play it all,
Starting point is 00:57:48 and I made my parents totally fucking insane, playing it over and over here. A whole album. What was it like growing up without friends? The TV show? Yeah. Because you don't get that up here in Canada, right? Could I?
Starting point is 00:58:04 It would be horrible. Any more annoying? Could you play a little bit of a Beatles song here for us? Do you do? I hate to bring it up, and I know this is a surprise for you, but this is exciting for me. I mean, it must be exciting for you, John, to hear someone else sing one of your songs?
Starting point is 00:58:22 Well, yes, it'll be interesting to hear. And it'll be... And I'll be watching every movement you make to make sure you don't mess anything up. It's hard for you not to join in, isn't it? I know, it's such a great song. Dan, I'll try not to join in, but I don't know how... Please do, please do. All right.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Who knows how long I've loved you. Sorry, I told you. It's hard to do, but you... I love you still. Lifetime. You want me too. I always went low on that. You can't hear it on the album.
Starting point is 00:59:19 They turned you down. Because it sounded horrible. They knew what they were doing, those other three. I threw it all on the wall, and whatever stuck. We kept, go ahead, Dan. Are we read it? Second verse. Amen's the first.
Starting point is 00:59:37 No, it's different. Yeah, it's slightly different. And if I ever saw you, I didn't catch your medicine matter. He's feels to get. Oh, he's talking. John Lennon invented rap. Oh, I wish I'd be a multimillionaire. You are!
Starting point is 01:00:34 It's not very polite to talk finances. Julian could have gone to college. All right, closing up strong, Dan. Here we go. That's fine. Your song will feel... That's singing. Okay, this should be easy to be near. This is meant for a tenor.
Starting point is 01:01:51 My gosh. I thought you'd be better, John. Well, never meet your idols. Yes, never. I know, I met Michael Jordan once. He dugged on me. I have to ask. Tell us this story.
Starting point is 01:02:08 I was in Chicago seeing, I was trying to go to the top of that building, the tallest one they have. Just see what it was like up that high. And a friend of mine was also in town there. And he said, hey, I got an idea. You know, we might be able to get into the team if we tell him we're from the Beatles.
Starting point is 01:02:30 I said, I don't know. What friend is telling you this? One of the Beatles I was with, who I'm usually with, all the time. Ringo. Ringo. Right. Ringo, right. And I said, they'll never care about us.
Starting point is 01:02:43 You know, we're not even a band anymore. He said, no, and people still like the band, trust me. I said, fine, I put, you know, shove my hands in my pockets, put my coat collar up. This is not going to work. I said. That's what you do when you're disappointed? Yeah, you know, I kick the ground, kick a rock if I see it.
Starting point is 01:02:59 They'll put on a sour face the whole way. This is stupid. I could have been on the Sears Tower, you know. And they said, we got to the door. They saw us before we even got there. They said, come in and meet the whole team. I said, I can't believe it. I don't have anything for them to sign.
Starting point is 01:03:16 So, you know, I had them sign my pants. And the coat. what, the coat was so nice. And well, and I went in, they were practicing, and I said, you know, I look, you know, almost a mile high at some of these guys. They're all so tall. And I said, Mr. Jordan, you know, you're the best I've ever seen.
Starting point is 01:03:37 Can I play one-on-one? He said, fine, but it's got to be a full game. And I said, what? Wait, all four quarters? All four quarters. So, you know, something like 15-minute quarters was a little bit. Oh, my God. And I'm not in any type of shape at that time.
Starting point is 01:03:54 That's why, you know, I'm jogging. now, but so... Just today. Today, but it's... I'm gonna continue. I know it. This one's gonna stick. And he's...
Starting point is 01:04:05 I'm playing him. We got a ref out there. Scotty Pippin is cheering for me just as a joke, you know. And it's tied, you know. It's tied? At zero, zero at the start of the game? Right at the beginning of the game. Right.
Starting point is 01:04:21 And it took maybe four seconds for him to dunk right on my head. My glasses shot... Dumped on your head. He dunked the ball through the hoop, hit my head, bong, and my legs shoot out to the side, shoot out to the side, and I sort of do a split. And I'm, my glasses are gone. They're gone for the rest of the game.
Starting point is 01:04:46 And God, he must have beaten me 500 to, I don't think I had any points. It was like a practice for him. But I didn't have my glasses, so I'd always, I'd always wanted to get back to play him. But I haven't been to Chicago since. And I've never been on top of that. C.S. Tower.

Starting point is 01:09:54 Watch your language. Uh-uh. Watch this. Fuck, fuck, fuck. Oh! It made me so goddamn mad. Listen, we got a lot of work to do making toys for the kids. You need to fuck your wife.
Starting point is 01:10:06 Ho-ho. Ho-ho. My relationship with my wife is none of your affair. She's been needing it. You better stop talking about this. Her kids are full of milk. What are you talking about? You need your cookies and milk, baby.
Starting point is 01:10:22 You're such a weird freak. You don't even understand human anatomy. I understand it. Candy King goes in pussy. Ugh, the worst. Just the worst. Santa, why is May so busy for you? Now, you're asking that question
Starting point is 01:10:43 like I'm some kind of asshole who doesn't know my own schedule, but guess what I do? Because as a matter of fact, tomorrow is Canadian Christmas Eve. I shouldn't even fucking be here. That should be the goddamn North Pole hammered a bunch of wooden horses and shit.
Starting point is 01:11:07 Why do you still make those dumb toys? That's tradition, ho-ho. God damn it. Oh, ho. Why does Canada celebrate Christmas in May? I don't know what they do. They got all their weird holidays all switched around. Do you know where their Martin Luther King Jr. day is? December 25th.
Starting point is 01:11:27 It's October 31st when everyone else is having Halloween. Their Halloween's January 3rd. It's weird. I love you guys, I love you. You know I love you. Not an adult so much, the kids I love. You like the kids. I love those kids. You gotta look out for kids.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Yeah, they're innocent. Yeah. That's right, they are. They are. Some of them, some of them. There are some bad kids, that's right, they're naughty. You gotta admit it. So they don't get toys. Yeah, they don't get toys.
Starting point is 01:12:03 Oh, you creep me the fuck out. You little weirdo. Santa, why did you hire Ho-Ho in the first place? We've been over this. To remind me. To restore balance in the universe. Everyone gets presents on Christmas. Everyone.
Starting point is 01:12:26 So good little boys and girls, they get toys. And bad little boys and girls, they get weapons that Ho-Ho-O delivers. Right. It makes sense. Sure, sure. And by the way, Santa, this is Dan Mangon. Hi. Long time fan.
Starting point is 01:12:42 Yeah, thanks. You got that a lot? It happens. Do you get recognized? Do I fucking get recognized? Like, do people see a gigantic man in a red Santa suit? A white beard. Santa hat.
Starting point is 01:13:10 You're the only person. And do people say, I wonder if that's Santa. Are you one of the only people who has a hat named after your name? Me and Davy Crockett, motherfucker. That guy drives me crazy. Go find the rest of the polyphonic spree.
Starting point is 01:13:36 That was uncalled for. I'm sorry, dude. Good one, Santa. No, no. You like it. That means I did the wrong thing. Hey, who's that over there? This is John Lennon. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:49 What are you doing here? You're supposed to be dead. Oh, I came back alive. It's not cool, dude. I'm not hurting. anyone. You're disrupting things. Also, I Will is a Paul song, motherfucker. I know that, but I enjoy it.
Starting point is 01:14:05 You like wrecking it is what you like doing. Well, I had a little fun doing it. Yeah, you're like this one. No, no, no, no. No, no. No, no. No, no. Yo-co. Hey, oh. I don't want to talk about her.
Starting point is 01:14:20 Please. She's not here, is she? I hope not. Because I'm not giving that. baray back. Terrible marriage. Marriage supposed to be built on trust. Oh yeah, that's what you're saying? Ho-ho. Ho-ho. What are you saying about my marriage, Mr. Claus? I've seen where you go at night.
Starting point is 01:14:44 You mean around the world delivering goddamn toys? Yeah, around the world delivering toys. Yeah. Well, where have I been then? I saw you went to a gay club. Ho-ho. Ho-ho. What are you talking about? Oh, I saw it. What club was this?
Starting point is 01:15:03 The butthole. How do they get away with that? They spell with one T. Okay. A city would say, you know, we can't have that on our street. They spell it B-U-T-W-H-O-E. Oh. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Butthole. Is that why Whole Foods only sells donuts? What did you just fucking say? Is that why Whole Foods only sells donuts? Donuts. What the fuck is going on here? It's like living on the bottom of a Dixie Cup. That's a real thinker.
Starting point is 01:15:45 That is a real thinker because, you know, we were talking about W-H-O-L-E for that. Yeah, I remember. I'm thinking, you know, would have Whole Foods. It was two seconds ago, I remember. H-O-L-E. Yeah, we got it, dude. So what you've got, what else would they sell?
Starting point is 01:16:00 Maybe Cheerios. Frito's Ho-Hoop's. That's right. Thank you, Ho-H-Hoh. My favorite fact, Ho-H-O. Ho-ho loves for you. Hoops. I do. Can only get them up here.
Starting point is 01:16:10 Only in Canada. Don't sell them down the stage. I need more. It's weird. It's the only garbage food you can't get in the United States. It's like, why are they withholding? Why they drew the line there?
Starting point is 01:16:24 In the interest of national health, we can't allow hoops into the country. Tell that to the NBA. What the fuck is going on here? What is this laughing? I've been doing a lot of word puzzle games recently. They're finally paying off. Yeah, paying off.
Starting point is 01:16:56 So Santa... It's me Santa. You turn jolly there. Well, I'm a jolly guy by nature. Yeah, it's just, you know, elves like ho-ho. Elf like ho-ho. There are no other elves like ho-ho. Oh, my God, no, you're kidding me?
Starting point is 01:17:14 Most of the elves, what are elves? What are they like? Oh, God. You tell them. What? We have different opinions. You tell them. We have different opinions.
Starting point is 01:17:24 You go first. You go first. And then I'll go after. And I'll go second. Oh. Oh. I said after, but you said second, hoho. Yeah, ho-ho.
Starting point is 01:17:34 So who's going first? Fine. I hate all those little cunts. I suck my dick. They all just want to be good all the time and kiss Santa's big ass. That's why he likes him. Is there any, Upward mobility with elves, like, do they hope to someday get your position at all?
Starting point is 01:17:53 We can fly. What are you kidding me? No elf is hoping to replace me. I'm an immortal, supernatural creature. Yeah, there's no way we can all change roles. We never die. What about, like, there should be one day where you just, like, everyone does each other's jobs. That would be so fun, wouldn't it?
Starting point is 01:18:12 It would be fun for me. I could, like, hammer a horse and then complain all day. Yeah, right. You do during the day. How do you fill your hour? I just jerk off in the corner. Yeah. Switch places with you.
Starting point is 01:18:29 That sounds good. Yeah, it's all you do that too. Not in the corner. In the middle of the room, it's so weird. I do, now, ho-ho. Oh-ho. This is not true. Santa's Workshop has run
Starting point is 01:18:44 exactly how you think it has run. Where there's a bunch of elves singing songs and shit. They're hammering together to horses and they're making dollies. Xbox ones and all that kind of shit. And I walk around.
Starting point is 01:19:03 Hands by my back. Hmm, coming along. Very good, Twinkle. You know, like that kind of shit. I go home. Mrs. Claus has my dinner ready. Gigantic plate of cookies. A gallon of milk.
Starting point is 01:19:18 We watch a few lawn orders and then we go to bed. I thought you only got everybody who loves Raymond. Oh, yeah. Well, I guess his TV gets something else. Oh, dude. Ho-ho.
Starting point is 01:19:29 Raymond in the workshop. Guess what? What? It's only you that sees that. Oh, no. The rest of the day. They see whatever they want to see. It's a magic TV.
Starting point is 01:19:41 Did you hypnotize me or something? You hypnotized yourself. I hate that show. I know. That's why you're making yourself see it because you know you're evil. Oh, that sucks. It does for you.
Starting point is 01:19:54 I don't watch comedy bang, bang. When's the season premiere? It's in like a week. Cool. Not up here, not up here. Oh, I forgot. Sorry, guys. I'll watch it from my bed.
Starting point is 01:20:12 I have a really comfortable bed. Oh, really? When did you get this? Did you get a new bed, Ho-Ho? You must sleep on, like, marshmallows? I did for a while, but it hurt my back, so I ordered a new thing. Oh, really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:24 It came in a box so big I could do cartwheels all over it. Well, it must be big to you, Ho-ho, but I would imagine it's a smaller box to other people. Yeah, it's the size of a mini-fridge for Santa. Yeah. Mini fridge is small to me. I'm big. And the fridge is mini. And I'm smaller than the fridge.
Starting point is 01:20:47 That's right, so it's big to you. Exactly. This is how shit works. Is it a comfortable mattress over? Oh, you bet. Tell us all about it. There's three layers that keep the bed as cool as the other side of the pillow.
Starting point is 01:21:01 That embarrassing thing of going to the mattress store. I hate that. God damn it. It's the worst. It's tough to go. Walk in there. Try to test out the mattress. People are like, well, how come you never gave me
Starting point is 01:21:17 that train set for Christmas? I'm like, hey, dude, I'm off the clock. Let me buy a mattress. This sounds like an excellent mattress. Yeah. Have you ever looked at the side of the mattress and does it have a name on it or anything? I can't read.
Starting point is 01:21:34 Oh, no. Why can't you read? I can only read names. Oh, wait. Oh, wait, that works. What's Lisa. Lisa? Yeah, I thought it was like wing things when I first looked at it, but in my memory, once I said that, I understood what it said.
Starting point is 01:21:52 Right, yeah. Well, Lisa Mattress is the sponsor of our tour. Thanks to them, go buy yourself a Lisa Mattress. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, do it. Santa, can I ask you a question about... Of course.
Starting point is 01:22:08 Now, you see so much Santa stuff, especially around the holidays. Yeah, tell me about it. Movies and TV shows and cartoons. Hey, can I just shut up? Let me tell you something. Here's something. That drives me crazy. They have some actor portraying Santa
Starting point is 01:22:23 buying a fucking car or whatever, or he's like, I don't know, he sees Eminem and he faints or whatever. A bunch of horse shit. Santa Claus, I'm not gonna faint if I see some cartoon Eminem's, God damn it. Also, shut up. That commercial really bothers me
Starting point is 01:22:48 because they're trying to equate Santa legendary supernatural figure with these fucking marketing devices and Santa sees him and says oh they do exist and he fades because you can't believe it
Starting point is 01:23:04 that the M&M's guys are real give me a goddamn break wasn't Santa invented by Coca-Cola? What? Oh no John. What did I say? No, I was just pointing out the fact.
Starting point is 01:23:17 You ever heard of St. Nicholas motherfucker? Yes? Yeah, you have. Yeah, no, I'm just going to put my hands in my pocket and flip my coat collar up and kick some rocks while you're at it. Kick the rocks here on the stage. I'm an idiot.
Starting point is 01:23:33 I shouldn't have a talk. Is there anyone like that that you would be impressed, like Tukan Sam or Count Chocula or something like that? They're on my bucket list, sure. I'd love to meet those guys. Ronald McDonald? Oh, if only. Kids love him.
Starting point is 01:23:50 Kids love Ronald McDonald. He's so friendly. They won't shut up about him. The way he looks is nice, and his hair is nice, too. He looks nice. He has a nice woman's hairstyle. Like a lady your mom works with.
Starting point is 01:24:08 He looks like Carol from my mom's work. After a night of crying and her makeup runs. And she's wearing that weird yellow jumpsuit. Why does Ronald McDonald have that hair? It's weird. It's like so quaffed. I fucking hate him. But I love fries.
Starting point is 01:24:35 Fries are great. Uh-huh. Remember when I said I'd introduce you to the hamburger? Yeah. But you were very naughty. I know. I didn't get to go. I was supposed to have my birthday party at McDonald's.
Starting point is 01:24:47 And you were going to meet the hamburger? Yeah, I was turning a million and two. And the hamburger is a naughty little boy Because he steals hamburgers Yeah, I thought we'd get along real great Yeah But dad said I couldn't meet him Yeah, oh, not your dad
Starting point is 01:25:01 I found out the reason Hoho wanted to meet the hamburger Oh Was because they revamped his image And made him sexy Yeah, uh, give me those tits He didn't have tits I think I see what I want to see all the time
Starting point is 01:25:18 I think you do, Ho-ho Santa, is there any film out there? The question I was going to ask, is there any film that actually is accurate? You know, the Santa Claus or, you know. Yeah, that Tim Allen movie is really accurate. Jack Frost is a 10 out of 10. What's that?
Starting point is 01:25:35 Jack Frost was a 10 out of 10. 10 would bang. Did they show Santa? Wait, Jack Frost, which Jack Frost? The horror movie or the one with Michael Keaton? The one of Michael Keaton? I have a friend in that one. Don't really?
Starting point is 01:25:47 What role does he play of the film? I don't remember. Yeah, that's right, you don't. Maybe it never happened. Is Martin Short in that one? No. No, he played... Hold on a second.
Starting point is 01:25:58 He did play Jack Frost in one of the Santa Claus Secret. Sound Claus 3. Oh, right. All right. Okay, Santa Claus Superfan. I was just tracing through my mind, wondering if actually there was Santa in that movie or not. I realized maybe there's no Santa in that movie.
Starting point is 01:26:13 I don't think Jack Frost had Santa in it. Wait. Hey, assholes. Which Jack Frost are we talking about? The Michael Keaton. Yeah. But there's a really good snowboarding scene. Yeah, probably the best snowboarding scene.
Starting point is 01:26:31 That movie's fucked up. Have you seen it? Did they get tasty air? I wouldn't know. Do they think to themselves? What a thrashable slope? Backscratchers, too? They might have the microphones fucking worked around here. Being fucking rules. Talking about snow.
Starting point is 01:26:56 That sounds good to me. That sounds good to me. That sounds good to me. Oh, we are them boys. I don't care. I love it. I love it. Great string of in jokes, guys.
Starting point is 01:27:10 Jokes. I'm proud of us. The band is fun. That sounds good to me. Oh, the audience, yes. Hello. What are you talking about? The most accurate Christmas movie depicting Santa Claus.
Starting point is 01:27:28 is, of course, reindeer games with Ben Affleck. Rainier Games. That was about a heist or something taking place during Christmas? Yeah, something like that. But Ben Affleck plays a guy named Rudy.
Starting point is 01:27:46 Wink, wink. Yeah. Like the football player. You are one exasperating motherfucker. Let me tell you. Like Rudolph. It's a thinly, story of Rudolph and his rise to power
Starting point is 01:28:07 within the reindeer hierarchy. Really? Is Rudolph like a Hitler of reindeer or something? Tell the truth. Tell the truth. Okay. All right. Reindeer Games is not about a Hitler-like figure's rise to power. It's about how a badass motherfucker had to get shit done. And that's what happened with Rudolph. Really, Rudolph is sort of your rock. He gets things done for you?
Starting point is 01:28:39 Yeah, my rock. The Rock. Like Dwayne, the Rock Johnson gets stuff done for HBO with ballers every Sunday night. I wish it were every Sunday night. It's not year-round. I guess I just see what I want to see on TV. I wish it were 52 episodes a year.
Starting point is 01:28:59 We get more TV episodes in the North Pole than you do here. Really? Yes. shows never end on in the North Pole So, like, Bonanza has still been going? Yep, Bonanza, cheers. Friends?
Starting point is 01:29:15 Emily's reasons why not? Deep cut. Yep, maybe too deep, some would say. Morley safer on 60 Minutes? No, he died. This is... I don't know the rules? Come on.
Starting point is 01:29:31 You're talking fantasy rules. It's a news show, it's a new show. You think it's too soon? Yeah, that would have. sending me. Ho-ho is a big Moorley-Safe fan. Oh, yeah. I love that bitch.
Starting point is 01:29:44 Oh, loved Morley Safer. You love that fat bitch. You said that, not me. Oh, my gosh. Well, Santa, it's so good to see you. I'm sorry that we... I bet it is. You know, I'm sorry we've been taking Ho-Ho away.
Starting point is 01:30:05 But it's always great to see you. I haven't seen you in so long. It's been a while, hasn't it? It's been a while. You've been been a while by the best. Listen You're That's your motherfucker

Starting point is 01:30:49 with a sharp, sharp object. Guess what it was. Was it your penis? Yeah. Detachable penis. I love that song. What's your favorite song? Detestable penis.
Starting point is 01:31:01 What's your favorite song, Santa? Probably. Santa Claus is coming to town. Narcissist. It's very informational. It helps keep me on track. If I remember what everyone's all about watching people when they sleep,
Starting point is 01:31:23 watching them when they're awake, knowing who is good and who is evil and being the judge of all. All right, Santa. Well, it's great to have you. Can you stick around? We have another guest. I don't give a fuck. All right, well, let's get to our next guest.
Starting point is 01:31:43 He is a busboy at a restaurant. I've spoken to him. What kind of fucking show is this? I don't know. I spoke to him once before. Please welcome Randy Snuts. Randy Snuts. First of all, I just want to say that I was in the wings
Starting point is 01:32:09 and I heard a lot of scandalous language and I think that's friggin awesome. Good to see you again, Randy. Yeah, great to see you. That's some kick-ass shit. I was just hanging out back there. I was walking around town trying to find a jack asterer's
Starting point is 01:32:22 and I ended up in buttholes. Not what I was expecting. What were you expecting and what was it? I wanted a burger and to watch some sports. you know, watch the big game on TV. And instead, I just, man, my ass got more attention than the time I tricked my girlfriend into giving me a butt massage.
Starting point is 01:32:45 How did you trick her? Huh? How'd you trick her? I just told her to touch my butt. Must be dumb as hell. Yeah, man, she was scandalous, too. She was scandalous? Yeah, she was scandalous.
Starting point is 01:33:04 She always brought the drama if you know what I'm saying, Scott. It was always one thing or another. I'd be throwing a party at my apartment, and she'd be like, what did Kristen talk to you about while you guys were over at the fridge? And I'd be like, Jesus Christ, here we go again. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:33:23 Hi, drama, you know? She'd be like, what was your mom calling you about? And I was like, God damn it, some family stuff. And she'd be like, I want to know about it. And I'd be like, this is getting too deep. And she'd be like, how deep can it get? And I was like, not with the rhetorical questions, bitch. And she'd be like, I'm out of here.
Starting point is 01:33:39 Is that when you tricked her to tell? touching your butt. It's an honor to meet you, sir. Thank you, Randy. You're very nice. I've always wanted to know if you were fucking immortal or not. I am.
Starting point is 01:33:59 Hell yeah. That kicks ass, dude. My ex-girlfriend once told me that her dad was immortal, but I knew it was a lie. Who's her dad? Some fucking guy. Randy, is he put out with everything asked to about you?
Starting point is 01:34:25 It's probably best that you're not with your ex-girlfriend name. Yeah, man. She was always bringing high drama, scandal. You know, it's not nice to call a woman a piece of shit, but she definitely was. Did you call her that to her face? Hell no. I didn't want to have my foot
Starting point is 01:34:44 chopped off. What? Why would you get your foot? I don't know. When I'm sleeping, it's the easiest thing to grab and cut. Do you have short sheets on the bed? Hey, wait. Sheets are going to keep her out? Hold on. Hold on. It's hard to cut off a foot.
Starting point is 01:35:07 Doesn't matter the length of the sheets. Now when you're as drunk as I am. Dude, I could sleep through a championship game and a fucking subsequent riot. Randy. Hey, Scott, what's going on? So, first of all, some context. I'm a busboy at Scott's favorite restaurant,
Starting point is 01:35:38 D'Dodomios. D'Omeos. I haven't seen you in in a while, man. Well, I've been on tour here. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. This is the last night of the tour. It's a little over three weeks.
Starting point is 01:35:48 You know we deliver, right? I don't think you deliver out of the city limits Dude, I would do that for you Is that why you're here? Yeah, man I got a side of rice and some steam vegetables That's all you brought Dude, I knew it would travel well
Starting point is 01:36:09 Did you eat the rest on the way here? Be honest Yeah, dude, I've been busted What kind of food do you guys serve? It's a bring your own meat establishment So you bring in your meat and you tell us, no, we tell you how we're going to cook it. You don't even get to choose how it's cooked? No, dude, $300 a plate. And it's hit or miss.
Starting point is 01:36:41 And Scott, this is your favorite restaurant. I love it. I don't care. What kind of meat do you bring? Damn it. I've been Icona pops. By the best of them. What kind of meat do you bring?
Starting point is 01:36:55 Like blood sausage? You don't like that? I just pictured him poking it and blood squirting out. And you don't like that? I'm opposite. It checks out. Randy, this is John Lennon, by the way. Wow.
Starting point is 01:37:21 Holy fucking shit. Thank you. Do you do chicken wings? Yeah, as long as you bring them yourself. I could do it. Yeah? Sure. Yeah, of course, man.
Starting point is 01:37:34 I'll give him to the chef and he'll whip something up. Yeah. Chicken wings. I'd want to sort of serve, you know, deep fried with some hot sauce on him. Dude, we don't take requests. That's the problem I'm running into. He doesn't care if you're from the European band The Beatles. Well, what if I sang? What are my songs here with Dan for him?
Starting point is 01:37:56 I mean, we could pretend the chef is here and you could do that. I don't want to. Anyway, things are going good at work. Oh, yeah. Man, you know, remember when Kobe, got in trouble in Colorado and he was like, at least I got basketball. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:17 Well, my situation is nothing like that. At least you have that woman? I don't exactly remember what happened with him. I'm more of a Michael Jordan fan. Going through Kobe's Colorado case, it's not really appropriate for, I don't know, 1,500 plus seat venue. That's what I thought.
Starting point is 01:38:39 It's fascinating, but, you know, it's nothing you can't find out. What I was trying to say is like, I enjoy working and it helps me get away from the scandal that is my life. You have a scandalous life. Yeah, man, all the time. Ladies are always coming at me saying, what's up? And that's high drama for you. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:01 Because I'm, here's the thing, I'm quick to commit. You are, really? Oh, yeah. At what point do you say, I love you? Man, before the end of the first date. See, here's my deal. I'll do anything to get pussy. So three little words will do it.
Starting point is 01:39:20 Man, I'll say it before the appetizers come. What's your success rate with that scheme? I actually have a spreadsheet at home on Google Docs, and it's 78% right now. It's pretty high. With women you said I love you two, or with just dates in general? I mean, just dates in general. Wow.
Starting point is 01:39:44 Yeah. That's incredible. Then the problem is, Is that like, since I'm always in like that mode, then I'll have a girlfriend like that, you know? Yeah. And then like, girls start talking to me or I start talking to some girls, and then my girlfriend gets upset.
Starting point is 01:39:56 And then it's just non-stop drama. And then, you know, shit goes down. Yeah. Well, maybe, you know, maybe you should just try to juggle women, you know, date around, you know. Oh. Not be exclusive. You can do that? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:11 You can, you know, I mean, I wouldn't know that much about it these days. But... Not that much. But you can, yeah, you can, you know, sort of play the field, as they say. Well, I wouldn't really know how to go about doing that. Like, would I just tell a girl like, hey, like, I just want to have sex?
Starting point is 01:40:33 Yeah, I mean, some girls would appreciate that, you know? I mean, Dan? I'd appreciate that. All right, but I'm not trying to fuck Dan. This is the problem I have everywhere I go. I mean, well, I'm not going to say no. I mean, maybe I'd fuck Dan. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:40:57 No, I'm not saying that you and Dan are going to have sex. I'm saying that sometimes, like, ladies out there, who would appreciate just, you know, a nice, honest, hey, I want to have sex with you. Oh. They thought you were asking. Ho-ho! You got ho-hoed. I mean, I'm in Canada. Like, maybe Dan and I hook up tonight.
Starting point is 01:41:22 I don't know. No, it's not in Canada. Anything goes up here, man. Anything goes? Yeah, dude. All right. Have you had experiences like that down in the States ever? Like with guys?
Starting point is 01:41:35 Yeah. Yeah, I'm as by as the day as long. Then why are you saying you'll try it? Because it's Canada. Oh, I've never been with a Canadian guy. Oh, okay. The Canada part was what was throwing you. Dude, I'm a firm believer in aliens.
Starting point is 01:41:52 Maybe Canadian people are, like, configured differently. I don't know. But, dude, like, for me, it's all about love. Like, I don't see, like, gender, you know, or genitalia. You don't see Janitalia? You're dating the wrong people. Yeah, that's what she would have said should that information been brought to her.
Starting point is 01:42:22 And also the thing that was said would also have to be slightly different to make it more euphemism, euphemistic. But, you know, we're just talking, so I've seen all the offices and maybe you've seen some of them too. But, you know, there's an easier way of saying that.
Starting point is 01:42:48 But you know what I'm getting at. Just keeping it light and a little nasty. I'm going to turn this way now. Sure. I'm surprised you hadn't yet. So Randy, what do you hope to do while you're up here in Canada? I mean, you're here to deliver me food, but now you're on a stage with Santa and Elf and John Lennon and Dan Mangan and, well, Me.
Starting point is 01:43:19 All right. I mean, don't get me wrong, like this kicks ass, so I'll probably bask in the glow of this for the rest of the night. I'll probably tell Santa what I want for Christmas. What do you want for Christmas? He's right here.
Starting point is 01:43:32 You might as well tell me. Dude, I wouldn't mind all of the offspring CDs. You know, a lot of libraries have those that you can take for free, and if you have a card. So you might not want to waste you. the gift on that because you can get it for free, but whatever you want to do. Dan, do you know any offspring songs?
Starting point is 01:43:56 Not since I was 16. Did you learn something? Oh, I knew them, yeah. They're gone, though. Which ones did you learn? Long gone. Why don't you get a job? Come out and play. You got to keep them separated. Hey, hey, I don't remember that one, sure.
Starting point is 01:44:16 If you're under 18, he won't be doing any time. Come out and suck me dick. He'd go, come on him. play. It's a great hook on that song. Baird-da-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-dh. Right? Remember? That's good. All right, well, I guess I gotta tell some elves to make a bunch of fucking offspring CDs.
Starting point is 01:44:46 That'd be great, dude. I work out to that stuff. Good for you. So you already have it? Yeah, but I want it from Santa's... I want it from Santa's bag. I'll leave out some milk and cookies. Thank you. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:45:02 Hey. Yeah. It'd be fun to leave out like just a hot, savory dish for Santa sometime. Like a casserole? Yeah, like a casserole. I'm like a, I don't know, lukewarm glass of cranberry juice.
Starting point is 01:45:16 What? Hey. Santa's not trying to hear that shit. I don't want... Don't get any ideas, anyone. I don't want some weird casserole with your grandma's recipe or whatever. I need my...
Starting point is 01:45:30 I need the sugar for energy. What do you need the milk for? To wash out the goddamn cookies. I'm supposed to eat a million dry cookies? Use your head, Ackerman. What about like seven up or something? Whoa. A cookie and a seven up.
Starting point is 01:45:52 Come on. Grow up. He's going to be burping. Not four years old. Come on. I don't know. A lukewarm glass of cranberry juice really keeps your piss stream clear.
Starting point is 01:46:04 That's a moment. mortal problem, dude. It's not, that's not an issue for me. Oh yeah, I forgot Santa's a mortal. Yeah. That's got to come in handy when other people are dying. You know, you learn to live with it because at first, people that you love, they pass away, and then that gets to be so painful.
Starting point is 01:46:25 After a while, you don't let yourself get close to anyone. Who did you love, Santa? Who was the original? Many friends over the years. Yeah? Other saints. St. Augustine? I love that dude. He used to party. Then he got all cleaned up. Like, good for you. You had your fun.
Starting point is 01:46:50 So do you just try to meet other immortals? Is that why you married Mrs. Claus? Yeah, I made her immortal. Oh, you did? You can bestow immortality upon people? If I want to. I'd like to be immortal. You're not going to like the method.
Starting point is 01:47:08 Wait. Is it a hard handshake? You're closer. Really? Anyone you have Congress with? Congress. Look at this guy. Hello, would you like to have Congress with me? I'm being up front.
Starting point is 01:47:28 Will that work on girls? Anyone you have sex with? Is there a special method you have to use? Yeah, it's called insertion of the penis. Look what you're doing to me. Dragging me down in the mud with you. So is Mrs. Claus the only woman that you've ever been with? Uh-oh.
Starting point is 01:47:52 I... Oh, ho. Oh. Surprise you haven't blabbed her all over the place. No, I just still lies for the first 20 minutes. I have been with other women. There was a lady before Mrs. Claus. Really?
Starting point is 01:48:07 Yeah. Tell us about her. Is she still with us? No, she's long, long dead. Really? In the ground. Skeleton by now. What was her name?
Starting point is 01:48:20 Mary Todd Lincoln. We didn't even have sex. We just made out and it drove her insane. So very sorry, Santa. Thanks. What is Mrs. Claus' name? Did she have a first name? It's none of your goddamn business.
Starting point is 01:48:45 Of course she has a first name. Well, that's private. That's only for me and her to know. Yeah, she's not allowed to talk to anyone. She's not allowed to talk to people at the North Pole? She, by, I've advised Mrs. Claus, my wife, that it's a bad idea to talk to the elves. What?
Starting point is 01:49:04 Yeah, but he didn't say we can't fuck her. Hello. Hello. It's very rude. I know. No, I didn't say that. I'm not the kind of guy. Go to my Jake Lamata.
Starting point is 01:49:16 I'm going to go around. Hey, this is my wife. Don't fuck her. I take it for granted. I want that pill. I want that pill. That's what he wanted for Christmas. He wanted that pill.
Starting point is 01:49:30 Wow. Wow. Wow. Very good. Dude, I got one word for Santa and Mrs. Claus's situation. Yeah. Scandalous.
Starting point is 01:49:41 I bet. Hey, Dan, do you have another song that you... Hey, you guys want to get bummed out again, or what? Yeah. Yeah. Let's hear another song with Dan. Another new song? Whoa!
Starting point is 01:50:02 This is unprecedented. Live leak. John, are you going to sing along to this one? I think I'll make up some lyrics. No, Dan, I would never do that. How could I have known? The hollowness of bone Until I was shown

Starting point is 01:53:55 You had me at Santa Claus is coming. I'm trying to think of somebody worse than you, and I'm drawing a blank. Yeah. You remember that time? I kicked the shit out of you. All right, all right. You kind of prison rules
Starting point is 01:54:16 taught me a lesson. Yeah, you were talking some shit over FaceTime. You forgot I was a supernatural being. I fucking came down from the North Pole and I fucking kicked your ass. You're so squishy, though. It was like being hit by pillows, soft pillows. Yeah, that knocked your fucking teeth out.
Starting point is 01:54:40 What do we have to expect this Christmas, guys? Is there anything coming up? Snow. That's it, just no? I mean, what do you mean? Like, toys, like, is there anything interesting coming out? Like, what are the new toys that we can expect for Christmas? Everyone wants video games, they want dolls, they want all the same shit they want every year.
Starting point is 01:55:02 Like, what do you want to hear? I don't know, like, sometimes there's like cabbage patch kids, you know, like the hot new trends. Are you asking me what do kids like? Are you just avoiding this question for some reason? You know what I'm talking about? I feel like you want me to, like, give you a secret. info on some toys that, like, we're responsible.
Starting point is 01:55:24 We have to give the kids what they ask for. So they want brats dolls, we're going to make them Bradstals. But you've been getting these letters all year, right? Yeah. You get them... Yeah. When do they start? The day after Christmas, I would imagine. Oh, my God. The day of. Yeah. Some kids, here, get a load of this shit.
Starting point is 01:55:41 Some of these kids, and I love the kids. I love them. Some of these kids leave me their list for next year on Christmas Eve. So I'm putting the presence out of the goddamn tree. And I'm like, oh, what's this? Someone wants to leave a note and says,
Starting point is 01:55:55 I love you, Santa, thanks for the gifts. Uh-uh. It's like next year, here's what I want. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I want, I want, I want. It's like when a teacher puts homework on the board, right, at the beginning of class. We already don't want to be there.
Starting point is 01:56:11 Don't remind us of the next thing. And my pencil is broken. It's exactly like that. It's exactly what it's like. Here's what kids are asking for. A lot of kids. for some reason. They're asking for some doll called doll so real. Dolls. Dolls so real. Doll so real. I've never heard of this. It's a curry dish. This guy,
Starting point is 01:56:42 Mark Russell over here. Was Mark Russell a nice little boy or a naughty little boy? Mark Russell was a nice little boy and that's why he wasn't funny. I said, I don't know, I'm talking, that was a roast For roast sake. Who cares? Humor is subjective. Good for you, good for you, Mark Russell, if you're still alive,
Starting point is 01:57:12 playing that piano with the stars on it. And I'm trying to make guns for babies. Really? They're trying to make guns... They're trying to make guns safer these days, you know, with like, you know,

Starting point is 01:57:43 Yeah, you can tell right away. But I've been trying to tell them, they can't even hold the goddamn things. But you're trying to figure out a way that a baby can hold a gun and shoot it. Yeah. So would it be like, you know, it would be like a mitts that you put over a baby?
Starting point is 01:57:56 Good idea. Why are you doing this? Why are you helping them out? That's going to really make you work. Thanks. Here's the one thing we got going for us is babies can't support their own heads so their aim will be for shit.

Starting point is 01:59:46 that is, for all intents and purposes, a human being. But it lacks a soul. And you can tell when you look into its eyes. Every elf that's worked on one of these dalsal reels has gone mad. What do you do with the crazy elves? We have a place. Is it like an insane asylum, like an Arkham asylum up there at the North Pole? From Batman?
