Now his mother, Leslie McSpadden, tells her story of love, loss, and the fight for justice. I'm still Mike's mom. Once you're a mother, you never forget how to mother. From Lemonada Media and Campaign Zero, Still My Baby is coming out May 27th. Freedom! I'm like a monster, I'm like a monster.

Do you think I would be a cute little boy? Like right now? Oh, I don't think you looked exactly like what you look exactly like what I look like now. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I think I might be weird. If I said like, I like you so much. Yeah, no, I don't want to. No, I don't think so. You gotta be kidding me. How old? I don't think I would say you're a little boy. No, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:02:57 I don't think I would say you're a little boy. No, I'm not. I don't think I would say you're a little boy. No, I'm not. I don't think I would say you're a little boy.

Starting point is 00:03:05 You gotta be kidding me. I don't think I would say you're a little boy. No, I'm not. Obviously I'm not a little boy. I'm saying, if I were a little boy. And you were wearing exactly what you're wearing right now. Which is suspenders and shorts. And you're looking a big lollipop.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Yeah, a little straw hat. With a propeller. I have a straw hat with a big ribbon down. You have silly boxer shorts on instead of pants. What? Is that a cliche for? What little boys did you grow up with? Well, I, I.
Starting point is 00:03:32 This chick is crazy. No one heard me say you had no pants on, so then I had to say you had boxer shorts on just to make sure that it was clear that. That's better. Apologies. To make sure you were being silly and people didn't think like.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Yes, I'm just being silly. Hey, did you hear? You actually did. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Welcome to Freedom. Thank you. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:03:50 You weren't talking to me, right? Yeah, of course. And you never welcomed me. I never did. Welcome to Freedom. Thank you. I didn't know if it was one of those things where it's supposed to go round robin.
Starting point is 00:03:58 Clockwise, yeah. Don't say clockwise. I'm sorry. I need one more person to welcome. Welcome to Freedom. And welcome to Freedom. Thank you. Oh, sorry. Welcome to Freedom. I'm just welcoming myself. I want to welcome everyone to welcome. Welcome to the freedom. And welcome to the freedom. Oh, sorry. Welcome to the freedom.
Starting point is 00:04:05 I want to welcome everyone to freedom, even the haters and losers. I'd love to welcome them. I gotta ask. I gotta ask. Okay, so we are I know this is a couple of months later or so, maybe a month and a half later. Price. Last night, guess who? Die? Shuffled off this mortal coil. But Paul, you were the Pope died last night and Paul, you were posting about it at 2 AM. Do you get like an alert when that happens?
Starting point is 00:04:38 I have a lot of Catholic church alerts. Anytime there's big Catholic church news, I get an alert. Now you like to post when someone dies. I love it. Just dancing on their graves. Guess who's still around? Me, asshole. Do you want to pay homage to people you admire?
Starting point is 00:04:59 What's the thought? It's when I do post. And the thing is I will post on Instagram and I will post just a picture of the person with no... Is that called meta? Are we really supposed to call that meta? When I do post and the thing is I will post on Instagram and I will post just a picture of the person that no True well, it's under the umbrella subsidiary Yeah, but the Met Brella so I guess yeah everything we should call by the biggest conglomerate Milky Way Milky Way Galaxy and
Starting point is 00:05:24 it's it's somebody who had a pop culture impact on me in some way, right? Like somebody that I- Or Pope culture. Well, no, I'm not posting a picture of the fucking Pope. No. Did you? Well, then why did you know at 2 a.m. that he knew?
Starting point is 00:05:39 On Blue Sky I was posting. I was making my little jokes. 1.58 a.m. I was like, damn, Paul has a show in the morning. Why were you up? No, I got it little jokes. 1 58 a.m. I was like, damn, Paul has a show in the morning. Why were you up? No, I got it this morning. I saw it this morning. I forgot about the timestamp.
Starting point is 00:05:51 And I was like, Paul has a show in the morning. Did he get an alarm? Did you get enough rest? Yeah, I got an alarm that the Pope died. And you woke up with a shot out of bed. I did. I woke up, Janie, and I said, get up. Put some coffee on. a shot out of bed. I did, I woke up, Janie. And I said, get up, put some coffee on. Light some candles.
Starting point is 00:06:10 We're gonna pace around the room. Until we solve this. Do you care who the new pope is, dear? There has to be one now. There has to be, what if they stopped? What if they're like, this is all stupid. This is a good stopping point, no more popes. Until we solve this, did you think that perhaps
Starting point is 00:06:24 there's a mystery with the while the pope died? I don't know. Yeah, that's the thing. This 88 year old man who had been sick? He got murdered? He was very suspicious that he goes and meets with JD Vance and then hours later he's gone. What was so funny is at first I read, before he died, I read that JD Vance wanted to meet
Starting point is 00:06:42 with the pope and the pope was like, I'm going to send this other guy. I don't want to meet that guy.. The Pope was like, I'm gonna send this other guy. I don't wanna meet that guy. Is Pope impersonator? In Pope's senator? Just like his vice Pope or whatever. And the idea was that the vice Pope was gonna say, hey, guess what?
Starting point is 00:06:53 You fucking suck, dude. You have to be compassionate. You're so mean about migrants and everything. Mean, yeah, you're too mean. And then the Pope was like, fine. Let me just do it. Mean. Yeah, you're too mean. And then the pope was like, fine, I'll talk to this guy. And then I guess this is part of my papal duties. And then the pope was like, before I go, I'm going to tell this guy he's wrong. So listen, stop being a dick about immigration and, you know, people that mean.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Do you think it worked? Well, no, because he converted. Yeah, I can already tell it didn't work. We didn't have enough time. Do you think it worked? Well, no, because he converted. Yeah, I can already tell it didn't work. Because we didn't have enough time. Let's hear it. Here was his response, JD Vance, who converted to the Catholicism in 2019.
Starting point is 00:07:34 The Pope actually said something to him. The Pope did say something to him. I thought you were fully doing a bit. I did not know this. No, no, no, the Pope has been, from afar, has been saying, hey, this is not in accordance with Christ's teaching. Good Pope.
Starting point is 00:07:50 And JD Vance is like, well, let me go talk to him in person. Yeah, then he meets the guy in person and he's like, I'm gonna, I'm gonna. So the Pope says, yeah, you have to be, you know, Christ says this. And then JD Vance is like, well, you know, I'm still a new Catholic So I don't know all of the Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he tried to play it off like, huh? Well, I haven't explored every corner. I didn't know that People I haven't heard that one
Starting point is 00:08:22 I'm still on page 25 literally as someone who knows basically nothing about it as proven in previous episodes. That's one of the main things I'm aware of. Honestly, the guy was very, he boiled his message down very simply. And he's like, if you don't know, now you know. Now you know. Anyway, goodbye. El-Pole. I'm glad he got to say that before he croaks.
Starting point is 00:08:46 I would love to die. Just say croak. Like a croak. I would love to say something meaningful and then go croak. You should do that. Like if you're on your deathbed, just say that and then just don't talk again. So it's the last thing. Even if it takes you days to die, the last word was croak.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Fuck that. Do you think that's not going to happen? I don't know. I feel like that's probably what's going to happen. A lot of people die in a car or a plane or standing ups. That's not good. Or in a bank robbery. I think you should wish for yourself a 99-year-old death in bed.
Starting point is 00:09:18 I wouldn't mind dying in a nice chair. Sure. In a comfortable chair. Lazy boy kind of thing. Where people don't know I'm dead at first. And they're just walking around you and going, arguing. I feel like that seems more peaceful of a death than the bed. I know someone who passed that way.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Right? And I think- His name was Jesus Christ. But I do think it's jarring for the other people. No, of course it is. But better than fighting on the floor. But I think- We'd love to talk about this.
Starting point is 00:09:43 We do love to talk about this because it comes for us all. I don't want to traumatize anyone. So that's why I'm thinking like a nice hospital room in a bed where people can like, everyone's ready for it. Yeah, everyone's ready for it. And people can go like, excuse me. Yeah, I don't want to see this. I'm just going to go get some Cheetos right now.
Starting point is 00:10:01 What's that? What was the last thing you said? Go get some delicious hospital coffee. Do vending machines take tap yet? Or are they still expecting us to have a crinkly dollar bill to put in there? Okay, when we were in the UK. I haven't been to one in a long time. We were what?
Starting point is 00:10:17 In a bouquet? In the UK. Oh yes. There was a, I just wanted to get a fucking Coca Cola. That's all Paul wants when he's in the UK. Caffeine. Do you like how it tastes there? It tastes the same.
Starting point is 00:10:29 It's different. It tastes the same. It's all different. It's all, I'm sorry, I misspoke. It's all different. Yeah. And it had, the machine had, you know, the tap. You could either tap or insert.
Starting point is 00:10:39 It's like all those interfaces now. Swipe, insert, tap. Tried every single way, did not work. At the zoo they have those machines where you get a smushed penny, you know? Oh yeah. I've seen that. And they... I have a very famous bit about that. You do? What? So my first comedy album. Hold on, I'm gonna want to hear all about that. But... How long is the bit? Can you just do it? Or can you tell us about it? It's too long to just do.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Like how long? It's a couple minutes probably. Cause we probably have 50 minutes to go on this episode. It's too long for me to want to do it. But question, if you. How you gonna feel about me? I was just listening to that. Why?
Starting point is 00:11:22 Which is probably why I just said question. Question. It was on my energy playlist. Question? Did it give you the energy you required? Yeah. I bought my own diamonds and I bought my own. You're heating your home with this playlist?
Starting point is 00:11:32 Yes. Wow. Solar power. Good for you. This is child. My question is, question, can you repeat an old bit if I just tell you the name of it, can you just do the whole bit right now?
Starting point is 00:11:44 Or do you have to look it up and see it wow it was I would probably have to I don't know if I have any of those locked in locked and loaded anymore yeah but you could listen to it once and remember it yeah yeah but speaking of that I once did a spot on Australian television good day and because the the spot was a stand up spot, it was very short. And I was like, OK, this was in 2011. I was doing the Melbourne Comedy Festival. And so I had to. Yeah. He's some guy who has a comedy.
Starting point is 00:12:18 No, I'm not. Comes to my comedy festival. Everything's going to be fun. And you know what? I'll host it in Melbourne. So because I- Hey, why not? I was doing-
Starting point is 00:12:28 Simplifying. Longer material at that time. I was like, I don't have any joke jokes. I have to go back to old material. We have to go back. And so I said, I'll do this bit. It'll be easy and fun. And then I did not listen to the bit again beforehand.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Oh no. Ooh. Did you forget it in the middle? I forgot a chunk again beforehand. Oh no. Oh. Did you forget it in the middle? I forgot a chunk of it. Oh no. That was crucial. It wasn't like in the middle, I think you went, I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:12:50 No, I- Then you were like, no it won't make sense. My mind skipped over a very important part. That would make all of your material. That would have made it really funny. And it wasn't because I skipped over it. Do you ever write down like little memory things, like words to kind of you if you're gonna do a write that down you think that's cheating. Like on a note pad on your school.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Not on the television. Right. I mean that's that's only Janine Garofalo has ever done that. She's the only one. I think everyone does it. Notes on TV? No. I think everyone has a little something on that stool. They might, they might have things hidden,
Starting point is 00:13:31 but I think like a lot, most comedians pride themselves on not having that. I know, but you'll see a little glance. I'm not calling you a liar. Glance over to the camera. Are you saying like during someone's special or something like that? Yeah, like they might go,
Starting point is 00:13:44 they might walk over here and just their eyes go down and they go and that's lame. That's what they were doing. By that time, you should know what you're fucking talking about. Maybe that maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I just think that's what they're looking at. That's what they were doing on the office TV show. They would glance over at their notes, but then there was a camera over there.
Starting point is 00:14:00 Caught them every time. It caught him every time. And so they just incorporated that show entirely on teleprompter. Isn't that weird to find out? What are they making the documentary about with all these shows? That's what I want to know. What is the Modern Family documentary about? Yeah, 10 years. Did they get good material? The Modern Family documentary is just like about like just a family. Here's what I used to think. I thought the same thing as you. When do we see the documentary? I would love that for the finale
Starting point is 00:14:23 episode. That's what the TV show is. The TV show is the documentary. We're seeing it. The TV show is the documentary. That makes so much more sense now. They're not filming a documentary. The only thing is- We're not seeing raw footage.
Starting point is 00:14:36 We're seeing what the documentary is. But for The Office, they incorporate the documentarians into the final season. So we're watching, I feel like that's a conflict of interest. It's unethical for them to include themselves in this. You think it's a koi? Yeah. A koi.
Starting point is 00:14:52 How many seasons of The Office were there? I'm gonna guess 10. And you think that at the end they were like, let's just see these guys, we've been- They did. Teasing this whole time? Yeah, then suddenly- I'm gonna say 11. Okay, fine, I'm gonna guess. Nine. How many seasons of The Office and American
Starting point is 00:15:11 Workplace? You always call it that. I mean that is the title. Nine, nine, nine. You did it. Oh my god, I got it right! I spilled water all over my face. I was trying to think, I watched like, I think the first, I watched it until they started doing those hour long episodes. Oh yeah, when they were like, you know what? Everyone loves all the stuff we cut out online. Let's just put them back on the show. Yeah, and then I was like, this is too much, Office.
Starting point is 00:15:40 And then I stopped watching it. So I missed the later seasons after fucking Steve Krell's like, I don't want to do this anymore. And they're like, we're gonna still keep doing it. Who was that guy? James Spader. Oh yeah, Spader was there. Well, it was Ed Helms for a while.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Ed Helms, then Spader. Will Ferrell came in. Will Ferrell, they all came in. Catherine. Everybody except us, stop by. Yeah, I didn't get to go there. I didn't get to go there. Cool up DropBot. Cool up DropBot. Cool up DropBot. That and Parks. I of course famously tested for the lead of the office. Whoa. I'm sure we've talked about this, but tell me about that. And then did not remember seeing
Starting point is 00:16:18 Steve Carell at any of the auditions. What? Yeah. Well, that's how it goes, isn't it? Did you do when you say you tested? Was it like, did you get all the way to the end? Yeah, I was told I was down to the final three. Final three. It must have been you, Bob. Wait, that's crazy. Bob Odenkirk and Ben Falcone, Mrs. What's your name? Melissa McCarthy. Yeah, Megan.
Starting point is 00:16:41 I'm Mark Markle. Wait, that's crazy. You were down to the final three. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Quote unquote. Yeah, and then Steve Carell, who was never mentioned. His name never came up. Right.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Well, maybe if he was an offer, but then they were auditioning and you guys were the best audition. But for the auditions to go that far? That's what I don't understand. When they're making an offer to somebody? But I've had that many times where I've literally auditioned for things and then. Oh, sure. It's like, that happens all the time. Yeah. But then the, but this was extreme.
Starting point is 00:17:10 You've gone in multiple times. It feels, yeah. Cause usually testing it's like the people you see in the room are the people that are, even if it was a celebrity, you would have to be there. For American Idol, I was top, I was in the final 10. I remember that. And they had you on as a joke. What? Oh, no, I mean, I mean to be final 10. I remember that. And they had you on as a joke. What? Oh, you didn't know?
Starting point is 00:17:26 No, I mean to be the host. Oh my God, I forgot this. I forgot this too. And I- No, he was one of the bad singers. I saw Ryan Seacrest. Oh beautiful, lost my just guys. Okay, so you were down to the top 10.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Yeah, and I saw- How did you, wait, let's back up because how did this come to you? Back up, back up, what does America- How did this come into your inbox? Like, what was the situation? Well, they were looking for a duo. And your manager was like-
Starting point is 00:17:51 They sent an owl. There's this opportunity or you like saw this or heard about it? I had never heard of it. Okay. They asked, I was at the time working- Your team briefed you. I was working in a duo act.
Starting point is 00:18:03 And so they wanted a duo because the original hosts in the UK, Ant and Deck, were a comedy duo. Ant and Deck, Saturday Night Takeaway. So you have like a sketch duo that people are aware of. And so they were looking for an established duo. So funny considering what happened. It is weird. Yeah. Came in and honestly slayed the first audition.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Crushed. Did great. Got the call back. It was down to the final 10. I looked around, saw Ryan Seacrest. I'm like, Oh, they're just going with that guy. He had already. He looks like a host and he is a host. Yeah. He's super handsome. He already, he was like super in LA known very well. Yeah. Looking like a snack. But I was like, but I guess he's not in a duo. And then the second audition did not go as well. Enter Dunkleman. But he didn't get it though first, right? Didn't there another guy who had it first?
Starting point is 00:18:56 They paired him up with another comedian, Brian Dunkleman. And then realized it just, they didn't, he was so good at it. They didn't need a second person. It would be funny if it made them reconsider Ant and Dec He realized it just, they didn't, he was so good at it. They didn't need a second person. Yeah. It would be funny if it made them reconsider Ant and Dec over in the UK. Can you get rid of Ant?
Starting point is 00:19:09 You know, you two guys? What are we doing? That's so interesting. Were you, then were you, and question for both of you, were you sad about this? This was a very particularly difficult period in my life where my car was repossessed twice. I almost had my home. I almost lost my home that I had.
Starting point is 00:19:32 You had PTSD from the war. Oh, your condo? My condo, yes. And then it would have been nice to get this cush job. I needed money so bad and I was like, so I decided to do research about it. And all I could find, I didn't, the internet didn't really have anything about it. See, with microfiche. He was in the library.
Starting point is 00:19:50 He was in the library. American Idol started out. Really nice library with those green bankers lamps. All I found was- You're the only person in there. All I found was an article in Q Magazine, which is a British music magazine, and I would get cue every month.
Starting point is 00:20:05 And so I found there was a James Bond guy. Yes. Started his own magazine. Yeah. You think he loves music? He's like, here's a music that fits into a pen. And there was a big article on it, but the article was written with like, you already know what American Idol or what what pop idol is. So we're just going to talk about these very specific details of it. So I was like, I can't quite figure out what this show is.
Starting point is 00:20:31 But I did enough research where I was like, I think if I do because I was doing more play by play, we my partner and I split it up where I was like doing play by play. And he was doing like color, if that makes sense. And it really worked for this for the first audition. And then the color kind of wasn't all that great for the second. But so like, so they for the audition, they would have the idea of someone just saying, what do you say or something or do they sing and then you react to it? So it was kind of like, first an introduction,
Starting point is 00:21:05 like you're introducing a fake person, and then, yeah, someone's gonna come off stage and you're gonna interview them. And so I was doing the sort of like, okay, how did you feel doing the sort of main interview stuff, and then my partner was doing the sort of more funny, like making quips about whatever I did.
Starting point is 00:21:26 How didn't you feel? Right. Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah. So yeah, just. And then were you sad when it premiered and then you were like, oh my God, everyone fucking loves this shit. It's pretty crazy because I was like, I think we would have been received as poorly as Brian
Starting point is 00:21:42 Dunkelman was. Yeah. So maybe that wouldn't have been good. It wouldn't have been received as poorly as Brian Dunkleman was. Yeah. So maybe that wouldn't have been good. It wouldn't have been good. But even if I had just gotten it on my own, I think. It it even if I had done a good job, it would have skewed my career in a way that I don't really. Who even knows? I mean, that would be a whole different.
Starting point is 00:22:00 I would have loved it if it had been like a summer job and no one no one paid attention to it. You know what I mean? I just like have got some TV experience under my belt. That's how I felt about Iron Man. And wait, the real Iron Man, not the movie Iron Man. When you didn't get the office, did you cry?
Starting point is 00:22:16 I don't think that I cried. I was very disappointed. But you know, like tensions are so high when you're like finally testing and it's like the pressure, it's crazy. I was a big fan of the original show. This pre-Rickie Gervais being what he is now. And I really felt like I did a good job. You're a bigger fan now.
Starting point is 00:22:35 No, I love him. Oh, I love the way he talks to people. Yeah, so you knew about the show. It is interesting that both of those are British shows. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but it was the audition was really fun because the test was really fun because they did it like the show where they had hidden the cameras and so they were watching from a control room. And so you were just like acting. That's cool. The show. Yeah. Were you acting with
Starting point is 00:23:02 the casting director or were you acting? No, no with other people who were testing? Yeah, I was opposite that test. I remember I was opposite ever Carradine was was auditioning for Pam and We had a we had a great time. That's a really cool audition. Yeah. Yeah, it was great. That's fun. That's not you And then I was not called in by that casting office for literally 20 years. Well, do you know, this is something that Mike and I always talk about that we're always confused by. Like, when you test for something, our experience has often been that when we've tested and not gotten it, that we're never invited to be on the show.
Starting point is 00:23:35 And you go, how was I almost the lead, yet I can't play one character for one episode? I don't understand. I think about that all the time. It makes you feel like, did I fuck it up that badly that you never want to see me again? Or do they think of me as damaged goods? Yeah. It's like there's something so strange with that where you're like, oh no. Maybe they fought for you, but the network said no, and they're like, we're never going to get this guy through. But it happens so much that it's like- No, it feels like it's part of it. It's like, once you've gotten that far, it's like you're deleted off the list for the show. And it's like, I don't understand because you thought I was good enough to basically do the whole thing. And then now I can't just,
Starting point is 00:24:10 I just want to come and do a bit part. Somebody for one episode. Yeah. All right. We have to take a break. We'll be right back. Okay. Bye. I'm not big on trends, but I am big on clothes that feel good and last. And that's why I keep going back to Quince.

Quince has all the things you actually want to wear this summer, like organic cotton silk polos, European linen beach shorts, and comfortable pants that work for everything from backyard

Bombas make socks and now slides and seamless essentials, you're gonna wanna check those out, that keep up with whatever your summer looks like, whether you're running a marathon or just a few errands.

They make specialized pairs for hiking, tennis, golf, you name it. And they don't stop at socks either.

Starting point is 00:27:57 Hey, uh, if this doesn't work out, I'll do absolutely anything. If you have other parts that need filling, I'll give you the sides. I'll try right now. Would you have been a janitor on the office? Sure. And who's the only thing he does is he walks in and goes like, oh, a lot of shit in the bathroom today.
Starting point is 00:28:16 Yeah. I would have done that. It's hilarious. He says it six times a year. Yeah. He just comes in and says a lot of shit in the bathroom today six times over the season. Yeah, six times a season. Yeah. He just comes in and says a lot of shit in the bathroom today six times over the season. Yeah, six times a season.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Yeah. That's too many. I think it should be once a season, but that's still a good job. Do I get to look at the camera? And you get residuals. No, in fact, you look for the cameras and they're always like avoiding them.
Starting point is 00:28:37 That actually looked a bit better. I'm trying to get it down. They're always running away from you. That would actually be really funny. I need the toilet today! I'm chasing them get it. They're always running away from you. That would actually be really funny. I need the toilet today. They should do more of showing the other camera's angles when the person looks to the camera on the show. And then it's just them going.
Starting point is 00:28:54 To the back of their head. Oh, I have to say that I don't have to say this. I want to say. No, you must say it. I have to say everything I'm saying today. Again, we're time. I was told. We're time dating this episode. But for us, yesterday was three great things happened.
Starting point is 00:29:09 It was 420, it was Easter and the Pope died. Wow. You're leaving on Hitler's birthday. Okay. Also, Harris' birthday. It was also the last day of Passover. Harris' birthday, yeah. Last day, yeah, so much went down yesterday.
Starting point is 00:29:21 A 420 for the ages. It's obviously too much. So we had an Easter egg hunt in the morning. Easter egg cunt? Lauren, he said it. Of course he did, but I was trying to let it go. My cunt came over. So we had an Easter egg hunt and
Starting point is 00:29:39 Easter egg hunt. Hunt! We should play that today. Sure. Egg hunt. Natalie and Brulia, get ready. You're gonna be heard. And I was filming Emmy looking for the Easter eggs
Starting point is 00:29:53 during part of it. And I was- How many cameras? Just one, just, and it happened to be on my phone. Single cam? Yeah, it was a single cam. But I thought it was very funny. I filmed it like Survivor, where in frame, you could see the Easter egg
Starting point is 00:30:09 and she wasn't seeing it. And so I zoomed in really close on it and then panned over to her saying, I don't know where it is. Do they do that at Survivor? Yes, all the time. They show the prize. They show the immunity idol that they're searching for. Oh, that's chameleon.
Starting point is 00:30:23 It's so funny. It was very fun. On Survivor, did they put music behind it like, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, Dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum, Dumant of, like, what are we going to include, you know, and Kulap was sort of like- Do you talk about Romans piercing his side? Sure. It's either that- Putting vinegar on the sponge.
Starting point is 00:30:54 I either do that or I do the Peeps bunnies. So I kind of just pick whichever I'm feeling for the year. Who puts vinegar on the sponge? Was it the Romans? Yeah, he was like, I want to drink, and then like, give him a fucking vinegar on a sponge. Shove that in his face. And he had to drink that?
Starting point is 00:31:08 You didn't have to. I think he probably went like, No, we, you know, we weren't going to do anything religious, but it was kind of like, hey, what regarding the Easter bunny do we do? Like, the Easter bunny came last night and I was like, you know, this is just too close to Christmas and Santa. She was already confused enough by Santa where he gave her a scooter and she would,
Starting point is 00:31:29 we said, go ride your scooter. And she's like, that's Santa's. And she hasn't touched it since then because- Still? Still, yes. She still thinks it's Santa's. I think so, I don't know. So she was fine with him eating the cookies.
Starting point is 00:31:41 That was what she was really excited for, leaving the cookies and milk out. And then she came down and saw it. She wants to keep them fat. And then we're like, look what Santa brought you. And she's like, uh-uh, no, that's Santa's. And she wouldn't, so- That's confusing.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Can you put a note on it that says, Too Emmy. Like, hey, Emmy, could you have, would you take this for me? Would you take this off my hands? I can't, I'm too fat to write a script. Yeah, maybe right now you could put a note on it and say, Santa left a note that says this is yours.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Send a letter to her in the mail that's from Santa. Dear Emmy. Dear Emmy. So I just thought it was too much to be like, hey, there's another mythical creature who's gonna drop by in the middle of the night. So we just did, where we had, or you know, Collabed it, honestly.
Starting point is 00:32:24 No shit. Hid the eggs and the eggs had stuff like little know, Colub did, honestly. No shit. Hid the eggs and the eggs had stuff like little presents, trinkets inside. You're gonna get yourself in mom life comics if you're not careful. Maybe next year you can introduce the idea of the bunny when she kind of can reason with it. Do it when it's way too late.
Starting point is 00:32:38 Well, cause she's gonna hear about it. She's eight years old. At preschool and stuff they're gonna say, the Easter Bunny's coming. We've been doing swim lessons all week here. And so I was chatting about this with other parents and yeah, and I had to like keep my voice down in talking about it because you know.
Starting point is 00:32:55 You don't wanna blow it. Yeah, but I don't know. I knew you were busy talking about the shape of water bunny. When you go swimming. Donnie Darko's bunny. Donnie Darko's bunny. There's so many bunnies that visit us. Some happier than others.
Starting point is 00:33:06 Bugs Bunny, very rude. Yeah. The bunny did come to my house and left a lot of presents. It's funny though because both of my children's grandmothers, so my mom and my mother-in-law, they both sent a lot of presents. And so I had to space them out. And my cousin sent a basket for them too, so I had to space them out and my cousin sent a basket for them, too So I had to like space them out over the weekend. We love holidays in my family.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Jesus! And so like Friday they got to open like a big box of stuff for my mom That was really honestly way more exciting than what the bunny brought I was kind of like, should have put some of that in the basket What did she put in there? A mermaid costume Whoa Like there's just a, it was clothes.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Are you sure it wasn't an actual mermaid? But candy. Just died in the box on the way over. It might have been, she disintegrated. But the costume wasn't that. When we were kids, I don't think we got presents on Easter. I think it was just candy. I can't.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Chocolate eggs. I can't help myself. We got presents growing up. And we got candy, but it was usually pretty tame. It would be like, you know, a special stuffed animal and like a couple of little toys and then like a coloring book, you know, whatever. It wasn't like crazy.
Starting point is 00:34:11 But I feel like I never even believed in the Easter bunny. Like I did with Santa. You know, I just always knew that it was- I really did. And I was very into that. Really? And then I never really imagined what he was like. Yeah, I was very into that. Really? And then I never really imagined what he was like. Yeah, I was really into it.
Starting point is 00:34:29 He probably fucks good. I didn't really imagine what if he was a... I mean a lot, certainly. Sure. I didn't think he was like what you see at the mall, but I also didn't think it was a bunny. What have I seen at the mall? Like the Easter Bunny, you know, the big human size.
Starting point is 00:34:43 It's so bad. You know, the big human size. It's so bad. It's so, there's never anything that looks cute or reassuring or friendly. You know what it should be? It should be like a five foot tall woman inside a small, it should be like a really cozy, like stuffed animal costume. Right.
Starting point is 00:35:01 So it shouldn't be six feet tall. Minnie Mouse regulations. That was, I think that was the people who were Mickey and Minnie and Donald. I think that would be more be above five. Wouldn't that be more pleasant? I think they should. When they're so tall, it's kind of unsettling. I think they should put clothes on an actual bunny. Yeah. Or big fluffy white bunny. And he needs to just stand next to it. A six foot tall bunny.
Starting point is 00:35:22 But there's nothing that says that he's six feet tall except for those things at the mall right right right everything we know should make us believe that it is a rabbit yeah yeah like i don't i don't remember ever being told in the easter bunny he's a gigantic rabbit yeah no because you definitely don't want to think that that's too scary but you want him to have agency so he can't just be a normal size rabbit, right? No, but it's like he's kind of like, it should be like Alice in Wonderland, like the white rabbit in that where he's like running around in clothes and he's got like a whole, you know, agenda.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Sure, but he looks like a rabbit. He does not look like a person in a suit. Yeah. He looks like a rabbit. But that being said, Gigi's first Easter was a hit. It was very successful. Easter egg hunt was lovely. And the baskets, they overflowed.
Starting point is 00:36:11 So it was just- They overflowed with presents. With candy and presents. Candy and presents. Well, the eggs mostly had candy in them. Well, we, yeah, we didn't, we only gave her one chocolate egg at the end of the day. So everything inside the eggs that we gave were like little trinkets, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:27 little jewel, like a bracelet or jewel from sacks. I did that last year. I did like all rings and tattoos last year. Yeah, tattoos, yeah. This year I did rubber foods that were like tiny little rubber foods. And then I did- Yeah, an Easter. To trick her into trying to eat them?
Starting point is 00:36:44 Yeah. That's what I would do. And then I did candy because I her into trying to eat them? Yeah. That's what I would do. And then I did candy because I was like, you know what, I have so many little fucking trinkets everywhere, let's make it candy. So that way they disappear down the toilet. It's gonna go away, down with my poo. With your poo? Well, I'm gonna eat it.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Let's be honest. The Little Rubber Food reminds me of when I worked at, in general, the novelty store on South Street. And we had to do inventory. What was the title of that store? Like what, why did they call it in general? when I worked at In General, the novelty store on South Street. And we had to do inventory. What was the title of that store? Like what, why did they call it In General? It was a play on general store.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Oh, I see. Yeah, because they had, it was two levels. There were housewares upstairs. He only works at places that were puns or plays on words. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. It sucks. Mr. Show.
Starting point is 00:37:20 It's really stressful. That's honestly another one. That's honestly another, it kind of is. It kind of is. It's a show of some man. You know what I mean? It's like,. That's honestly another one. That's honestly another, it kind of is. It kind of is. It's a show, it's a man. You know what I mean? It's like, yeah. Real time.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Ugh. That's a play on clocks. This fucking guy. This fucking guy. He like, he went and met with Trump and he's like, actually Trump was very nice. Like he fucking broke her up. That just happened?
Starting point is 00:37:39 Yes. Like do you hear what the hell stupid you sound? I don't think he does. People say, you know, I was really surprised. He was actually very nice. Did he go on to do that on his toking show? Club Random? Yeah, Club Random.
Starting point is 00:37:55 So we had to do inventory. Now, downstairs, we had a bunch of like fun novelty, you know, toys and shit like that. You know, like, well, what's it give me one example. I think you can get like a magic eight ball there. Okay. Do you sell like lunchboxes? Shorts?
Starting point is 00:38:14 Shorts with like a raccoon tail on them? No. Did you sell lunchboxes? No, but that is something we would have sold. Yeah. But never got the opportunity. No one ever asked. I begged them. Please let us sold. Yeah, never got the opportunity. No one ever begged them. Please. The store, the like the penny. What do you call it? Penny? Not penny.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Dollar store. No, but they will. You speak called like five and dime. We got to get back to your story, by the way, about the penny. You saying Penny reminded me of that. Well, we had a little dime store. That's what you call it. Dime store. Yes. So I'm sorry. My town, I just want to really quick.
Starting point is 00:38:43 We had to get a lunch box from there. It was very exciting to go in there and get to pick out your lunch box. The day of the year, we went to Lucky's, the local grocery store, and I got to find not the loan shark. I got a lunch box and the VIG. Yeah, where we got to pick the lunch box. It was so exciting. What's one that you remember?
Starting point is 00:39:05 Well, I think I've talked about it. I picked the Muppet Show one. And Miss Piggy was on it. As a boy, you never wanted to pick anything with a girl on it because then for the entire year, people go, you're in love with Miss Piggy. Yeah, it's embarrassing. But now we can talk about it.
Starting point is 00:39:21 I had the wizard laws. You were kind of in love with Miss Piggy. She's fucking hot. She's hot as hell. She's hot. That snout. in love with miss Peggy. She's fucking hot That's snout and she's down to clown A wizard Oz lunchbox and thermos. That was really cool. I had Marvel heroes Wow, that was the typically what you would get and that's why I think that Female heroes don't do well in comics? Because at the time, everyone would say, oh, if you're buying like, you know,
Starting point is 00:39:48 Ms. Marvel or Captain Marvel or whatever, people would say like, oh, you love her. Yeah. So what if I do? That's the problem. Now it's all about bento boxes for kids' lunches. Oh really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Sure. I recently got one. My kids will have nothing but Soylent. But it's great because you can put, it has a place for like a cold thing underneath and then it separates it from the thing and then you have little squares and you put you can cut up all your little foods and it looks really pleasing even if you don't do any it looks like you're like a really great mom if you just put in like just fill each little
Starting point is 00:40:16 square. Do you have them? I do I have one just for like going to the park and stuff and then yeah I'll send you a link it's great. Okay. Well we had to do inventory and we had to count every single fucking thing in the store. One, two, three, four.
Starting point is 00:40:29 That's kind of what we would do. But there we had these bins of little rubber animals that were very cute but they were very small. Those are the ones that I displayed at the library. 100%. We had to count all of them and it was... That's stupid. We were listening to music.
Starting point is 00:40:47 That's stupid. And this one song kept making me lose count. No, was it one, two, three, four, come on baby, tell them, tell them, five, six, seven times. It was the... That would be hard though. It was the song, the old triangle by the Pogues
Starting point is 00:41:05 from their second album. What is that about? Is that about the Bermuda triangle? No, it's not. Is it about freaking a MILF in our old triangle? You're closer than you think. You're closer than you think. Freaking a MILF.
Starting point is 00:41:20 I got a freaking MILF. Can you come by tonight and we can watch a movie or something? Sorry, I got a freaking MILF. I'm a little busy, I got a freaking milf. Can you come by tonight and watch a movie or something? Sorry, I got a freaking milf. Yeah, I'm a little busy. I got a freaking milf. The Old Triangle is a song that is about a guy who's in prison. I will say, triangles have three sides, and so that might have been throwing your count off.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Because you're constantly thinking about threes. It was the chorus for some reason would throw me off. Which goes like this. And the old triangle went jingle, jingle all along the banks of the Royal Canal. And it was the jingle. You sound like the Decembrists. It was the jingle.
Starting point is 00:42:02 I did sound like the Decembrists. I wasn't trying to. Okay. And the old It was the jingle. I did sound like the Decembrists. I wasn't trying to. Okay. And the old triangle has the jingle. It was the jingle jingles. And the jingle. For some reason that was throwing me off. And then my coworker called it
Starting point is 00:42:15 because she heard me going, every time I would lose count. And she said, is it the jingle jingles? And I said, yes it is. And I don't know why that was making me lose count. And she said, is it the jingle jangles? And I said, yes, it is. And I don't know why that was making me lose count. I think because I was also counting them. You should have put all the jingle jangles. And then I was a little late for this tip, but you should have put piles of 10. Oh, I absolutely should have done something like that. Yeah. Or piles of one. I was more doing that.
Starting point is 00:42:41 And then you count the piles of one. Yeah. Oh, that's good. Then you just have to start over from the one. Yeah. Oh, that's good. Then you just have to start over from the beginning. Yeah. Yeah. So what happened with this penny at the zoo? We need to know. Oh, well, I was going to say that, okay, so I'm Lauren. Give us the truth.
Starting point is 00:42:55 And you know what? Take your time with it. Do it right. I don't think that there's a lot to say, but there's these machines that they so what they'd say is you can tap your you can either put in money or you can tap your card and it's $4 or something and you get all four or maybe it's four or $5. You get all four pennies. You just crank, you keep cranking and the pennies come out. I now the bit I had, you had to put the penny in, you had to put the penny in,
Starting point is 00:43:21 but also $50 and I thought that was outrageous. You'd put the coins in a penny. Sometimes I remember my father used to say that- Four dollars for four pennies. Well, you haven't even heard the rub. Fuck you. That's not the rub? No.
Starting point is 00:43:34 But he used to say inflation is the thing that like drives people the craziest as they get old, because they can't believe that things are this much money. You know what I mean? Because they're just so used to what things were when they were kids. But sometimes I feel insane when I think about like, I remember going to Disneyland where the penny thing is, and you would put the penny in,
Starting point is 00:43:54 and it would be like 10 cents or something. Now to hear it's five fucking dollars. It's like- It's not like the technology is advanced. I personally am not too bothered. I think it was $4. I'm not too bothered by that. I'm not bothered. Because I can get all four at once.
Starting point is 00:44:06 However, so they have them throughout the zoo and I say no to the first one and I'll say yes, this, all right, fine, you can get it. Cause it's fun to crank the thing. Yeah. And then make a comment. I would pay $15 to crank that thing. I did it once and it worked, but I did another one
Starting point is 00:44:24 and it took, it tapped and said crank and then nothing came out and then I'm going did the money go through this like that's when you miss having dollars because you're going like I don't know if you just ate my money or if it just didn't do anything yeah have you looked up your credit card? I have it. That's the reason why you should have to put the penny in. Yes Queen. Right. Thank Thank you. And also, it's part of the, you know, keeping it going. Also, because it's my penny and I got it smashed. And I smushed it. And I defaced this currency and I'm going to jail.
Starting point is 00:44:53 All vending machines should have a manager that you go complain to. As a true carrier. It is, you know, it is weird. There should be a little guy in the bottom. He's like, what? What are you mad about? What are you mad about? What's the problem? What? Did it tap you? I'm trying to work in here. And I think I've said before, they don't accept cash at the bottom. He's like, what? What are you mad about? What are you mad about? What's the problem? What, did it tap your card? Did it put the penny in?
Starting point is 00:45:06 I'm trying to work in here. And I think I've said before, they don't accept cash at the zoo. So if you, I heard a kid saying he wanted to buy something and they didn't accept cash. I said, that's fucked up. That is weird. Why don't they accept cash at the zoo?
Starting point is 00:45:17 Because people, because of the pandemic, they said, they said money is contaminated. There's still cash, they love to steal caps. When I was in acting school, we had a vending machine in the little break room. And I remember the day that- And it dispensed like comedy and tragedy masks. I was all-
Starting point is 00:45:35 Today, I'll be funny. But it was, you know, I mean, everyone was broke. We were all hungry all the time. The salad days. The second year I was there, they built a Costco next to our training place and that was great because you could get for $2. Oh yeah, hot dogs.
Starting point is 00:45:51 You could get two hot dogs and a drink. Two hot dogs and two drinks. Two hot dogs and two drinks for $2? That's actually crazy. But so we were hungry all the time. You're insane. That's too much. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:46:04 It's too much food. But when one of my classmates figured out that you could basically shake this machine, tip it over about a 45 degree angle. Hey, if you just shake and tip it, everything comes out. Hey, if you just smash it with a hammer. Yeah, you can get everything. And so we would, during our breaks,
Starting point is 00:46:21 we would go over there and just like, shagung, shagung, shagung, shagung. And then everything would during our breaks, we would go over there and just like, shaggong, shaggong, shaggong, shaggong. And then everything would fall out until finally this this lasted a good six weeks or so until finally the administrators and the thing said, OK, everyone. Did the noise attract attention? No, it must have been the people who own the machine came by and realized that there was no money in it. Everything is gone. They were doing inventory themselves. Yeah. And they said, OK, you have to stop doing this.
Starting point is 00:46:48 But what a great 90 days. No, but no, month and a half. Forty five. Month and a half. You said the triangle, old triangle song was kind of like freaking old milk. But you didn't say. Because there's all there's the tie up all of the loose ends here. People also believe that it's a double entend.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Yes. And that the old triangle represents something else. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. A dick. An old triangle? A triangle penis. That'd be really bad.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Just an old guy with a triangle dick? No, it's a young guy with an old triangle dick. Okay, it's a Benjamin Button dick. All right, we have to take a break. Fine. This is an ad by BetterHelp. June is Men's Mental Health Month, and my guy, it's time to talk.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Men today face immense pressure to perform, to provide, to keep everything together. So it's no wonder that six million men in the U.S. suffer from depression every year.

If you're a man and you're feeling the weight of the world, the strongest thing you can do is ask for help. Talk to someone, anyone, a therapist, a friend, a loved one, because real strength comes from being honest about what you're carrying and doing something

Starting point is 00:49:30 Wow, I'm happy for you. We've been best friends ever since we were three years old. And then he became Pope. No, I'm still three. I don't like it when people say, we've been best friends since I'm five. I don't like I'm five. Why is it I'm? You know why some people say that?
Starting point is 00:49:38 I mean, don't tell them. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been doing that since I'm five. I've been best friends since I'm five. I don't like I'm five. Why is it I'm? You know some people say that?
Starting point is 00:49:47 I mean, I've been doing that since I'm five. I don't know anybody in real life who does that. No, people do do it in real life. But in cartoons, yeah, I've heard it a lot. No, people, New York people and just people. Hey, we've been friends since I'm five. We've been friends since I'm five.
Starting point is 00:50:03 Don't do that, Dejani. We've been friends since I'm five! Friends of some fives! Don't do that, Dejani! We're the friends of some fives! Oh! What's your problem? We're the friends of some fives! People do that. Okay. Okay. You're gonna hear it again, dear! It's time for a threacher, you guys. What is a threacher?
Starting point is 00:50:19 It's a game. And we're gonna play it. Is it a buster? No, it's not. What? It's buster or no? No, it's not. What? It's not anymore? I just found out it's not. So you admit, you knew what it was.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Well, when you said it, it reminded me. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. That's my shit. Oh, the girls, what are they doing? I guess. Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da a Jennifer Hudson talk show, a song tunnel song that they put up online.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Hello. I read an article about the Jennifer Hudson talk shows. They just did it and they never taped it. That's bananas to me. B, A-N-A-N-A-E-R-S. Thank you. And so then they taped that one and Gwen Stefani played along with it so well.
Starting point is 00:51:06 They said, let's put this online. And then it becomes- Those other people just like covered their heads away. Some people are a little bit. I love that though. I think it's so cute how they do that. I think it's cute. It's a good effort.
Starting point is 00:51:16 I can't, this sucks and I'm not trying to just be negative for no reason. Okay. But I cannot help but imagine there's a couple of people in there that don't want to be doing it. Don't I do it? But like employees? I thought that, but then reading the article, I think they all love it. And they're in fact,
Starting point is 00:51:31 there's five people on it. I mean, it's a break from whatever they have to do. The drudgery of Jennifer Hudson talk showing. But there's five people on a Slack, I guess, who figure out what song they're going to do. They spitball it back and forth of like, Oh, Kevin Hart is from Philadelphia and so's Will Smith. Maybe we do a parody of a Will Smith's, you know, it's like, that's the thought. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Or the streets of Philadelphia by Bruce Springsteen.
Starting point is 00:51:55 My first thought was the movie Philadelphia. But how many episodes did they tape a day? Twenty eight, I think. And then people article said that's a lesson. That's an hour talk show. They do 28 walk downs and then they film them all in bulk. Then they beg the people to come back. They fly in on the show.
Starting point is 00:52:14 Come on, we already filmed the walk down. Please, please, you said. Please do it, you already did the walk down. Please talk. And then they must have to rehearse or something. Yes. I think so. Or maybe somebody sends it like an audio and then they must have to rehearse or something. Yes. I think so. Or maybe somebody sends it like an audio and then they...
Starting point is 00:52:27 But also- This is pretty tight, like when they do it, you don't hear like sloppy seconds. Also, everyone wants to be on TV and it must be a thing where their loved ones can like check in with them every day and go like, I saw you today. Well, wait, does that actually make it to the show?
Starting point is 00:52:42 Well, they see it on Instagram. I thought it was just on Instagram. I have no idea. I have no idea. Cause Instagram is not TV, bro. I make it to the show? Well, they see it on Instagram. I thought it was just on Instagram. I have no idea. I have no idea. Cause Instagram is not TV, bro. I think it's a form of TV. Oh, I'm so sick of having this argument. Instagram is not TV.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Then stop arguing with me. What's the buster? I don't know, come back to that. There's no such thing as a buster. Oh, shit. So this is just a game. Okay. And it's called Celebrity Hunt.
Starting point is 00:53:05 OK, and some of us we brought it up earlier. Celebrity egg hunt. So. Are you saying a variation? Maybe this has to be famous eggs. You have to do. You have to convert that one from from from Garfield. There's an egg in Garfield. Yeah, no, that's not Garfield.
Starting point is 00:53:25 It looks like Garfield, but it's a different. Yeah, I forget what it's called. No, it's Garfield Garfield and friends. Oh, Garfield and friends. Yes. And there's a there's an egg
Starting point is 00:53:34 character. There's an egg with legs. I think I can think of its name if I tried really hard. I think it's Camilla. Hold on. Let me find out. Are you fucking kidding me? If it's Camilla, I'm going to be so mad.
Starting point is 00:53:43 Are there any other? Oh, it's Sheldon. Sheldon. Young Sheldon. Talk about Egg Sheldon. Surely there's some kind of egg pun involved. Someone, well, Shil. I know you can't talk about the Big Bang. Oh, you're saying cause Camilla.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Yes. I know you can't talk about the Big Bang theory verse. I think Young Sheldon was an egg first. Shouldn't there be Egg Sheldon? Which came first? Egg Sheldon or Young Sheldon? Shouldn't there be Sheldon in heaven waiting to be born? When was young Sheldon born?
Starting point is 00:54:09 If you had to like guesstimate. Siri, when was young Sheldon born? Alright so this is called... Young Sheldon? There's no egg named Camilla by the way. Cause Sheldon... Oh! I never thought there was!
Starting point is 00:54:23 There's a chicken named Camilla from the Muppets. Sheldon was born chickens have eggs. Probably chickens have eggs. By the way, there's no egg named Camilla. Sheldon was born 50 years or so ago. But when was young Sheldon born? Sheldon was born 50 years ago. Don't you think that doesn't sound right? How old is the character Sheldon?
Starting point is 00:54:44 And then and then the egg Sheldon. He never got born. He was an egg. The whole time. Jim Parsons is 52. So he was. Wow. How old was Sheldon? Do you think he's playing younger? I think we're all.
Starting point is 00:54:58 OK, so say young. We're all doing. I'm sorry. Pardon me. Say Sheldon was born 45 years ago. When was young Sheldon born? 35 years ago. Young Sheldon's birthday has to be discussed because they're going, they're showing the show in what year it takes place.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Young Sheldon was also born 45 years ago. Right? Isn't that weird? It's crazy. That's trippy. To be born on the same day, in the same year. As you when you were young. I'm tweaking.
Starting point is 00:55:21 I'm tweaking. Let's play Celebrity Hunt. The way it's played is, Paul, take it away. You- And do it good. Somebody yells out a celebrity name, and you gotta yell it. And then we all yell, hunt. Hunt.
Starting point is 00:55:38 And then going clockwise, the next person has to name a- You know what that is, and you can do it. And you can do it. The next person has to name a, and you can do it. The next person has to name a celebrity whose first name begins with the last letter of the previous celebrities, last name. Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:57 And there's no two ways about it. That's how it's played. There's just one way. Now, I also think that in honor of egg hunts, which is top of mind for everybody four months from now, is that we should alternate between saying hunt and saying egg. Saying hunt and saying egg.
Starting point is 00:56:15 I think you're right. Little extra challenge. And alternate meaning one and one or two and one, or like we say hunt twice and egg once? No, it'll be celebrity. I mean, it'll be hunt, measure twice, cut once, hunt, egg, hunt, egg, hunt. Take up the celebrity part. Okay, egg.
Starting point is 00:56:51 I want to start. All right. You got one? Yes. Three, two, one. We'll start by saying hunt. Hunt. Gene Smart.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Egg. Oh, fuck. I was thinking of my guy. I am, sure. Egg. That's why it's hard. Gene Smart. HAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG NOS HUNT Fuck!
