People talk a lot about spring cleaning, but here's what we should really be talking about. Bamba's Spring Socks! Yep, you heard that right. It's a busy time of the year, and the right socks can make or break your spring. Bamba's took their socks, arch-hugging, stay-up cuff, ultra-cushion design very seriously so you can take a load off. I have to say, they're some of the most supportive socks I own. None of my other socks are supporting me at all. These lift my arch so high. My wiki feed is taking off. Bombas started making socks when they learned that they're the number one most requested clothing item in homeless shelters. So thank you for

Let's reschedule. How's your week? What's been happening? My week has been okay. It's been very busy. I've been running around a lot and it's catching up to me.

Do you feel stressed about like you're going to forget something for the tour? Oh, I just baked that in. Yeah. Yeah. You're going to forget something. Yeah. You've been running around and you're like, what if I turn this into a relay race? Yeah, he does.

And I won a trophy. That's the kind of stuff that he thinks for sure. Did you ask me if I turn this into a relay race? Yeah, he does and I want a trophy Are you the kind of stuff that he thinks for sure? Did you ask me if I ever think that? Yeah No, not once not once have I thought what if I turn this into a really turned it into a relay race? You got a trophy at the end of all other people sure they have to be on board with this Yeah, but they're all running around to you. That's the thing. Everyone on earth is running around doing things Let's turn this into a giant relay race and then we get prizes. You're full of ideas today. This is wonderful. Brilliant Absolutely brilliant. Who does the prizes? Is that part of the relay race? Somebody's somebody's racing to make the prizes and distribute That's part that someone has an additional errand they have to do to make the prizes

Why don't they an additional errand? No, it should be someone who is already buying presents for something else. That should be its own running around is distributing the prizes. Someone on whatever day these people have. Hold on a second, Lauren. Thank you. You're welcome. If you're someone who... I'd love to collaborate with you on this. If you're someone who is errands...

Lauren, by heaven, I charge thee, speak. If you're someone who's errands of the day involved buying gifts for somebody, you have to be in charge of getting the prizes for the relay race in your area. What constitutes your area? Are we talking state? Well, because this is including all people. Bathing suit area? This is everyone, right?

So it's your bathing suit area and your neighborhood. It's good stuff. It's good stuff. It's good stuff. When people say bathing suit area, is that including like a one piece like your stomach? Yeah. What the fuck? What? It is. What if someone only wears one pieces? But what's your problem with that? Like you're like, so why do you need to know about their bathing suit area? If it's their stomach or if it's their vagina? Actually, we do not use any euphemisms their bathing suit area if it's their stomach or if it's actually we do not use any Euphemisms like that because we heard it's a bad thing. We don't either we use the real words the real world I don't feel like that true story euphemism

bathing suit privates baby bathing I like private. Yeah reporting for duty my privates. Yeah, or like your TT. Nana poop Come on just say the word. Yeah, say the word say na na poo poo. I don't like that. No, none of that, come on. Just say the word. You gotta say the word, say it clearly so that there's no, no, you know, bafflements about it. And it doesn't make it like a crazy. We don't want bafflement.

We don't want bafflement. You know, I'm not gonna get into this right now. If it's mentionable, it's manageable. That's why I don't talk about my unmentionables because I can't manage them, right? Your underpants? Lauren! I'm always shocked. That's why unmentionables is my favorite.

Yeah. That's really funny. Yeah, my unmentionables. I packed my shirts, my pants, my unmentionables. Peanut butter sandwich. Forbidden to say. I do think that everybody should have a little job that they do. Like we're talking about the relay race.

Every day? You think like communism, like you want everyone to chip in all that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Each to each according to their needs. What is it again? From each according to their ability to each according to their needs. That's right. Sounds pretty good.

From each according to their ability to each according to, that's great. Right? You love it. Let's start doing it. That's a good idea. Let's start doing it. I'm busy today, but I do think that's a good idea. I feel like very soon, we're gonna have an opportunity to test this out.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Eh, my 401k, my 401 parentheses K, and parentheses. Get it right, before you start crying about it. I just ran a 401k, my 401, parentheses, K, and parentheses. Get it right before you start crying about it. I just ran a 401k yesterday. Oh man, how'd you place?

I came in 400 in second. Oh no. K. K. K. 401, mkay. Did you have to run in school around the track and stuff? Did you have tracks?

Yeah. Is it too cold in Philly to run around? Or was it an indoor track? You know it gets warm there other times of the year. I know, but you know, like, growing up in California, it was like, run around no matter what. Sue.

Run around Sue, exactly. No matter what time of the year it was, it was like, you knew you were gonna have to run around. No, we would run around in the indoor, we had an indoor track and an outdoor track. Yeah, you guys. Did you really? But you have to run around. No, we would run around in the indoor. We had an indoor track and an outdoor track. Did you really? But you guys would run around and be like, hey, hey, bum da ba da da da hey, hey, bum da ba da da da hey, hey, bum da ba da da da hey.

Oh. Bring it on. Ba da ba da da da da. Indoor track and an outdoor track. Man, you must've been rich. We had a... My public school was so loaded. How loaded were they?

We had two theaters, actually three. Two, three theaters? Well, there was a main theater, there was an upstairs theater, which was smaller, and then there was the little theater, which was very tiny. Shit, we only had one. And we were pretty well off.

We had a planetarium. What? Like a telescope? And I took astronomy, which was so boring. I mean, I thought we were well off because we had a pool and a baseball field. We had a pool, we had a pool, we had a baseball field, we had a football field. Three baseball fields? Yeah. How many baseball teams did you have? Three baseball fields. They were always like trying to. They were competing against each other. I don't know if we had a side of cheat. They were competing against each other?

I don't know if we had a baseball diamond, but we had a football field and we had a basketball court. We had a football field, we had a basketball court. I don't remember if we had a diamond. I think we had a baseball team though. I almost think we had a baseball team, but I think they went to other places to do it. I don't know that we had it. Maybe we did.

I think we had to go somewhere else for the football games because that's one thing We didn't have it's the football field Well, we had baseball fields turn one of those into a football, but you had a football team. We did have football team I don't understand this three because the P is going out like, you know You got to be using all of them and everybody's playing baseball. I guess I don't get out there and throw those balls Oh, we had racquetball courts, too Nice sure we had tennis courts. We did not have tennis courts, I don't think. My school, my high school, of course, famously does not exist anymore. What happened to nuclear

bomb? Well, when you graduated, they said, you know what, we don't need this at all. We're done. Yeah, we're done. No more. We perfected it when Paul came here. Closed into lack of interest. The perfect student. I would imagine, yeah. It was not that big a school. I always find that fascinating, like neighborhoods that have, like I guess a lot of people move into neighborhoods because they see a lot of kids around the same age or whatever, but like it seemed like in my neighborhood,

everyone was within one or two years of each other. I beg your pardon. You're saying people move to neighborhoods because they look around and see there's a bunch of kids there? Here's what happens though. Here's what happens. Neighborhoods are starting out, they're fledgling.

Families move there because they can afford it. You're a yin, right? Why are you? They all start to grow at the same time. But then. You're doing like a different voice. For example, what happens is that in some areas, then the people get older and the kids move away.

And then the area is all 70 year old people and there's no kids. And then we need them to move out. So the houses are empty. Or we have to make those 70 year olds go back to high school. Yeah, jump street style. Like never been kissed. Like never been kissed.

Like never been kissed. And now the teachers are young. So Paul, were there no more kids in your area anymore? Is that why they demolished it or a new brand new school was built? I have a brand new school was not built. The school went out of business, I guess. Went out of business? How does that happen?

I guess the neighborhood changed. Well, it's happening in LA. I mean, I haven't been there in many years, so I don't know. Schools are under populated. Really? Yes. And yet population is booming. I guess I just heard about this birth rate is declining. When we say schools, do we mean public schools or private schools? I don't know. I don't know. But I was just hearing about this Is that including private schools? I don't know. I don't know. But I was just hearing about this, that the birth rate is declining,

that the pandemic made a lot of people want to do telework. School. And that also people leave their district and go to other places. And so then those areas are underserved. People leave their districts. Stay in your district. My favorite, District 9.

I love District 9. You know what, I actually loved that movie so much. I hate the shrimp though. When I saw that movie I was like, this is my favorite movie. And did you see Chappy or whatever it was called? I did see Chappy. Chappy. I like Chappy too.

Do you know what, I wanna see Chappy. I've never seen Chappy. I think it's a genre. Oh, you should just cut us the scene. I think I like that genre. Do you have a robot character? Why do I have to get a character? You don't, you can come on whenever you want.

Why do I have to be me? Is that true? Yeah. You can still show me the list. You can do any show you you I will never show you the list you have to guess what was the who are the people in? I'm the only person who's not gotten to see the list those musicians who were in Chappie Yes, yeah, yes, I like their music. I've got a great idea. I'm going to cast I am For Chappie Okay, who can I get? I'm going to cast Die on Twitter. For Chappie. Okay.

Now who can I get? Who's available to be in my major motion picture? How can I lure Hugh Jackman into this? Oh, his favorite group. If you could make Chappie, would you? If I could make Chappie? Oh my God, please. I don't want to do moral conundrums.

Like the robot? This is the trolley car problem. Would you fucking make oh my god, please? I don't want to do moral conundrum This is the trolley car problem If you had the wherewithal to make the movie chappy, would you do it? Yeah, that's what you meant, right? Yeah, I would make chappy 100% like like say say chappy what did not exist? In a studio comes and says we're gonna give you a $300 million budget to make a movie. Do you believe- Here you get the leftover money. It has to be Chappie.

Do you believe that everything affects everything? For example, if you didn't watch Chappie, then everything in your life would be a little bit different because time would have moved a little differently. Every choice that any person makes, and I guess an animal too, creates an alternate universe where you think that where something, something happens. So I don't know. It's like, you think that so it's like, Oh, should I turn on Chappie tonight?

You know, I turn on Chappie tonight. So then you, you choose not to turn on Chappie tonight, on Chappie tonight. So then you choose not to turn on Chappie. Something that happened in Chappie probably affects your behavior down the line. Right, yeah, you think I wouldn't have been able to participate in this conversation for a week. Why is his name Chappie? Because he's like a British chap.

Am I thinking of Wally? There is a Chappie, right? No, Chappie's the one with, yeah, you're not thinking of Wally, Wally's just Chap. Am I thinking of Wally? No, well I'm definitely- There is a Chappie, right? No, Chappie's the one with- Yeah, yeah. You're not thinking of Wally. Wally's the Pixar- But was it Chap and then hyphen-E or was it just-

No, it's C-H-A-P-P-I-E. Yeah, like his little nickname. Chappie. We love Chappie. He's a great guy. We love Chappie, don't we folks? He's a great guy. The mascot of freedom, would you agree?

I would. I would think so, yeah. I think probably a shirt could be made with that. Chappie the- And I could say Chappie the mascot of freedom, wouldn't you agree? I would think so. I think probably a shirt could be made with that. Chappy the... And I could say Chappy the mascot of Freedom. Wouldn't you agree? I think a shirt could be made.

Maybe wouldn't you agree is on the back? Yeah. Do you know what? Here it is. Here it is. It's Chappy and he's whispering, that's Freedom. Because it's like the meme. Which meme are we talking about? Because I know almost every meme, but I may not know.

I believe this meme started with Chappie. You believe this meme? I believe this meme. I believe this meme. Believe this meme. I believe this meme started with Chappie, where it was a Twitter construct. X.com.

That would go- For our new listeners. No. Refuse. New listeners wouldn't know about that? For our younger listeners who don't know exactly what we're talking about. Oh, like newer to Earth than us. You just came here from hell.

I believe it was watching Chappie, and when Chappie comes on screen leaning over to my date and whispering, that's Chappie And when Chappie comes on screen leaning over to my date and whispering that's Chappie But let me let me you double check you saw Chappie with a date No, this is the meme dear it's been established that I've never seen Chappie and that I Desire with all my being to see it would you though if say you were gonna step out on Jamie, Jamie. I can't talk. Say you were gonna step out on Jamie. You could not have sounded older. Say you were gonna step out on Jamie. You were gonna you were gonna play the field. Would you take someone. That's not called playing the field when you cheat on your wife. It depends on what your definition of the field is. Okay. But would you go see,

would you go see Chappie? Oh my God, guys, I have news for you. Oh. This is urgent Chappie news. What? Chappie is spelled capital C-H-A-P-P lowercase I uppercase E. That's good. Oh my God.

You guys, that's good. That's the way to do it. Get your money for nothing and you're Chappy. One of the worst actually that's been done here. One of the worst. One of the stretchiest stretches I've seen Anywho what's going on Paul? You're still looking at your phone. Are you looking for more Chappie news? The That's Chappie tweet has been deleted.

Oh no I'll find it. I'm doing good Lauren. I'm doing fine. Had a playground filled weekend for me. Here it is. Okay. Brackets. Whispering to date while watching Chappie when Chappie first appears on the screen. And brackets. That's Chappie. And that became a thing that people would replace Chappie with other things. Yeah.

Fine. But I think- Like Wally. No one ever did that, I'm sorry. That's so close to Chappy. I know, I know, I'm so sorry. Do you think Chappy and Wally are- I think it should be- Brothers or just friends?

I think what stays in the brackets should be exactly the same. Watching Chappy when Chappy appears on screen, that's Wally. Yeah. That's funny. But I think the T-shirt should be Chappy and he's like whispering.

Whispering to a female Chappie. We don't see there's no female Chappie. Or is he on a date with a bear? I don't know what he's in. He's on a we just see him whispering. We don't have to see the date. I'd like to see the date. I know you would, but that's for your mind's eye.

I a little bit think. But he's whispering and he says that's freedom. What's he whispering into? We just don't see. Yeah, we don't see. Do we see his arm? Because I'm presuming Chappie's robotic arm. Does he have arms? You know what? Yes, he does. We assume his

arm is around his date. Okay. Is he in a movie theater? No. He's in blank space. Blank space? Yeah. He's not in movie theater seats with his back to us. And Justin Lung and John Hodgman are there. Okay. That's fine. Okay, as long John Hodgman are there. Okay, that's fine. Okay, as long as Justin and John are there. He's in a void. Maybe he's on a date with them. Yeah, he's got his arms around both of them. He says that's three of them.

But he's talking about them, the three of them. No, he's talking about... That's up to the person who's observing the shirt. Well, this is what's so amazing about art, you know, because people can... So many different interpretations. There's just a million ways they could go, I can think of at least two right now. Okay, let's list them.

One, the Chappie's talking about us, and two, Chappie's referring to the three of them. Exactly. They're almost like an alternate universe version of freedom, in a way. Well no, that's why I thought of that, because obviously, obviously. Obviously. You're John. Sure. Justin and Chappie. That's why I thought of that, because obviously, obviously,

you're John. Sure. You're Chappie and I'm Justin. Why? I wanna be Justin. You're the tallest. You're the tallest. He's kinda cool, so I get to be him.

Why be Justin? He's cool. I wanna be him. You've got Chappie energy. I am Chappie. I haven't seen Chappie. I walk like Chappie. I don't know anything about him.

I talk like Chappie. But you just have Chappie energy. And baby, I fuck like Chappie. Did he have Chappie, and baby I fuck like Trapper. Did he have sex in the movie? Don't spoil it. What do you mean you don't know? You saw it. No I never saw it.

You never saw it? No. Guys stop. I love this movie. He doesn't have sex in it. Hey, shouldn't they make robots, if they're going to make robots look like humans, they gotta have sex like humans. I don't think Chappie really looked like a person. Well, just from what I remember. They make robots, if they're gonna make robots look like humans, they gotta have sex like humans.

I don't think Chappie really looked like a person. Well, just from what I remember. I know a lot of people who look like Chappie. The broad strokes, the broad strokes. You know, like when you have one of those little figures that you're drawing off of. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He basically looks like that. I mean, I'm gonna look them up now to remember.

How scary would it be if one of those came to life? That would be pretty bad. Yeah. Do you think humans should look more like stick figures? No. Why? Do you? Yeah.

Why? Because everyone's like, oh, look at my big, huge muscles and my body and I pumped it up and I'm so huge. Everyone should just be a stick figure. Yeah. Just be lines. Yeah. And a big circle for a head.

Yeah. No hair. Couple dots. Yep. Smiley face. I'll give everyone a smiley face. Nice. But you can't change. Here's what I would like to, there should be a film festival of horror movies that feature children drawing fucked up things. Yeah, that's right. There'll be a lot. Parent goes like, oh, what are you drawing, honey? You can do like a month long festival. Did you already say this? That movie that's coming out, Sketch? I forgot! I wasn't even thinking of that! I forgot about that!

Oh yeah, I just saw the trailer. I just saw the trailer as well. I haven't even heard of this. Tony Hale. It's a child drawing a sketch of a monster and then it comes to life. One of our Scott hasn't seen guests direct to this. Oh really? Yeah. There's two moments in the trailer where Tony Hale completes someone's sentence. And then is the third time he's going to say sandwiches?

He completes someone's sentence. And then is the third time he's going to say sandwiches. He completes someone's sandwiches. So this is a sketch movie like epic movie. Why did you say that? It's like from Frozen. Oh, we complete each other's sandwiches. That's what I was going to say. Yeah. Yeah. You said they do. You never see them do this in the movie, which I thought was gonna say. Yeah. You said they do?

You never see them do this in the movie, which I thought was a huge plot hole. They don't finish a sandwich together? No. They're basically saying how, while they get along and they're like, we finish each other's sandwiches. That's what I was gonna say. But you know, cause you think they're gonna say something

but they're both weird. So it's a double joke. It's a double joke. No, they had room for two jokes. Honestly though, that's one of the- Three jokes is you actually see them finish each other's sandwiches at some point. Yeah. Or they each take a sandwich out of their back pockets while they're dancing and singing.

When we finish each other's sandwiches. I think pay it off so much later. So much later, yeah. I think do it just- Well, you know, that guy- After Elsa has made these snow monsters. That character is one of the meanest characters in all of Disney history. Which?

The one who is gonna be with. Oh, is not the two sisters saying that? No. What's his name, Olaf or something? Or is that the good guy? No, Olaf is the snowman. Don't you wanna make him? I can't remember his name right now.

Olaf should have melted, right? And then it would have been a Shakespearean tragedy. No, for good. For good. You know, Olaf is a character that I really know Olaf? He should have been in a bucket. Olaf is a character that I really laugh at, you know, in spite of myself. In spite of?

Why? Well, cause I think, I'm not gonna laugh at this. This is for a little kid and then I'm finding myself going, do you ever watch the little Olaf? Are you saying Spider-Man self? Yeah. You ever watched the little Olaf shorts? I have seen those and I think it's funny.

I like how he sings. I thought we weren't using euphemisms. Little minis, little tinies. Little Olaf minis? Did he touchis, little tiny little Olaf mini. Did he touch you in your Olaf? Little Olaf. All right. We have to take a break.

Oh, mother's day, huh? It's coming up. And you know what? The number one thing your mom wants is for you to call her. Yeah. I, you know, one thing my mom wants us to be alive again. That's not going to happen, baby. You had your chance. This mother's day, try to bring your loved ones back to life. No,

obviously that can happen, but I will tell you, you can not only call your mother, but you can also give her an aura digital picture frame. I gave my mother one. Mm-hmm. Jen, I gave my mother a law one. That's right. They're actually, Paul and I, we've discussed this before.

And we'll discuss it again. This is one of the greatest inventions since the wheel. Yeah. I honestly think it's the best gift I've ever given anyone. Yeah, people love it. I love it. I love it. My wife loves it. We have them in our own house.

And we sometimes will watch it like it's the TV or something. 100%. And I think about 10 times a day. Literally this morning, I was like, to our daughter, I was like, hey, remember this? And I pointed up at something, and she went, that's me. And it's basically what these are, are digital photo frames that you load pictures into

and they every, you know, they cycle through these pictures. Now digital frames used to be terrible. Yes. I got a few for gifts on occasion and there was no way to figure out how to put pictures in it or anything. Or they would just stop working after a while.

Yeah. These are so easy. There's an app that you can put these pictures into. You can even send pictures to other people's frames. Yeah, so you get a gift for somebody you load, you preload it with a bunch of pictures. And then as you take pictures, you just send them off to that person

and it's, they get these new pictures. It's really incredible. It really is. We love, we all, all of Freedom loves these frames. We all have them. They are great. Everyone I've given one to loves it They're really a wonderful way to preserve memories revisit memories And a fun way and don't take our word for we're just two dummies, you know

Or a frame stupid or frames was named the best digital photo frame by wire cutter and featured in 495 gift guides last year. So I mean, that's something, right? So the next time it's a lot of gift guides, it's too many gift guides. I, I, what I do is I take all four 95 and I, uh, you know, do a cross section and see what's on all of them. And Aura frames was on all of them. And I've given gifts based on the Bible.

Yep. That's true. Anyway, so the next time you need to call your mom, you can also send her a new pic of you from that trip you're telling her all about right from your phone. Sweet. Yeah.

Every week I was on bug duty. And let's just say my family loved calling me in for backup. And then I found Pesty. With Pesty's do-it-yourself pest control, protecting my home is actually easy and I'm saving a ton. Most pest control companies charge over $800 a year. Pesty is just $35 a treatment. They built a plan just for me based on my location,

the season, and the specific bugs that show up in my area. And for real, since I sprayed with Pesty, the bugs have totally disappeared. It's like they got the memo and they moved out. The summer camp for ants is officially closed for the season. Okay, you don't want ants in your kitchen. It's super stressful when you have a problem like that. And my family is thrilled because we were all stressed out. Getting started with Pesty was ridiculously easy. The kit showed up with everything I needed. It comes with a sprayer, mixing bag, gloves, the pesticide, and super clear instructions. It took me less than 10 minutes start to finish and I felt like a pro.

Pesty handles over 100 types of bugs. Spiders, ants, roaches, even scorpions. And they guarantee a bug-free home or your money back. Now is the time to protect your home from bugs with Pesty.

It's good that we are because this is the podcast. This is the, this is what a podcast is. Can you imagine if this is someone's very first podcast

episode they've ever listened to? We want to welcome you to the world of podcasts. That's wild to think about. But it probably is. Hey, enjoy yourself. This is what it's like. This is somebody who was holding out for the longest time. They said, fine.

For the longest time. I did not listen to podcasts before. For the longest time. Then I said, I now will listen to podcasts before. Then I said I now will listen to four. I'll start with freedom and then I'll try to bleed them. I want to listen to podcasts longest time. Yeesh. Yeesh is right. That's stuck.

That one was like, whoa, babe. I bet they've turned it off and said, podcasts are not for me. Yeah. I hope that was nobody's first time listening to this. You have to give us some grace on that one. You gotta listen to- Please give us grace.

Please allow us and afford us some grace. The Jeff Buckley album, grace. Uh-huh. That guy. That guy. I wasn't into him. Well, I'm sad for people who... I'm sad that he died, but... Jeff Buckley died?

Yeah. Long time ago. Long time ago. In the nineties. Like 30 years at this point. Long, long time ago. So he's basically been since past ever since I knew his music. 30 years?

I think so. That long? Yeah. Let me look it up. I don't know about that. You don't know about that? There was an episode of The Sopranos. 1997.

1997. 1997. 1997 me look it up. I don't know about that. You don't know about that? There was an episode of The Sopranos. 1997. Wow. I'm so sorry, it's only 28. Thank you. He was 30? That's so sad.

There was an episode of The Sopranos. He drowned in a river? Yeah. That's terrible. Yeah. The whole thing is a bummer. Yeesh. But his music is gorgeous.

Dude, that made me so depressed. Here's what I want to say about his music. There was an episode of The Spranos where Bada Bing is the club. Adriana was somehow she was involved in this band. She wanted to manage a band. What is this? I forgot about this. Of The Spranos. Oh, okay. And so we see them recording in the studio

and the music to me was like what Jeff Buckley sounded like. Hmm. I don't know what that means. Well, I don't know what to tell you. I gave you all the clues, Mr. Policeman. Well, great. I think his music was nice. How's that?

You're nice. You are the snowman of comedy. I like your sweater. Thanks. You're nice. You are the snowman of comedy. Thanks. You're welcome. I'm the snowman of comedy? The murder one? Oh come on! You're not the Olaf. But he's supposed to be funny. He's intentionally funny.

I like how he sings. Olaf? Yeah, he does like a funny voice like that. When he kind of does his operatic voice That voice is funny and it's fun to do yeah, it's good stuff I like when someone like hits on a new voice like the guy who was like, yeah Hello there The first guy who ever did that there's only one guy just his voice pet buttroom I don't think I think he was playing it up.'t you think? For every single thing that he ever did?

He figured out a funny voice and he got cast because of it. Mr. Haney. Mr. Haney. When you figure out a funny voice you're set for life. There was that time where you could be a character and You could be that character in everything you did. That's true. We were watching Mary Povins yesterday and Ed, what's his name Ed Wynn? Ed Wynn? No, Ed Begley. No. Ed Wynn Drude? Ed Begley Jr. Ed Wynn. It is Ed Wynn. Yeah. Ed Wynn. He's got his whole like, Hello, hello, hello kind of thing. I can't deal with it. But it's great. It was pretty good. And he just, he worked consistently, but I think he had to work for Disney most of the time. I was going to say that's a very Disney voice. It's like those like, those in Alice in Wonderland

when those little like. Yeah, he's in that Edwin. Yeah, there's a bunch of them. You know what I'm talking about. You're just exhausted by the- When the queen plays croquet with the little flamingos and flips him over and they're like, oh. I haven't seen that in decades.

Biddy-middit, biddy-middit, that's a theater house of Biddy-middit. 40 years. Biddy-middit, biddy-middit, biddy-middada, bada bada. Lauren was air guitar-ing really hard. It was really good. It was like air bass too, it was great. Yeah, it was kind of everything.

Well, last week was spring break so we did a lot of fun things and then I left town. Did you guys go to Florida? No. And I was in Providence, Rhode Island doing shows, and then I was in New York City. And I got to see an old friend in Providence, which was really nice. And I got to see an old age friend group in New York.

My friend's grandparents came to the show, and they're 90 years old. They're so awesome. 90? Yeah. 90, wow. I can't imagine doing anything like that. What did they think of the show?

Did it look like you were really having fun up there? My friend's grandpa was crying laughing. Wow! That's very sweet! That was really nice. I've known them since I was 16. And he also is in, I just learned that he's an actor and he's in Red Dead Redemption as a character in the saloon.

Do you play that game? Yes! I need you to find him. It's my favorite game. It might be it might be like a new version because it was like something that he did recently. Or I think it came out now that we were at Redemption two. Okay. He was like in the saloon in the Western saloon. Yeah, there's a white hair and a white mustache and he's an old man. And it looks like him. They

said he they he said they did like his entire body and his voice and it's all improvised a lot of lines. Buck naked for this? No, I will. I will. I'll tell you what, I will visit all the saloons. That would be amazing. And try to find him.

Okay. So I can send you a picture of him. So you don't do have any clue of what he says ever. No, but he said it was really fun. Okay. So if there's a character who's like, this is really fun. Yeah. I like this. I'm being in an old West sal, this is really fun. Yeah. I like this.

I'm being in an old West Saloon. This is fun. Yeah. I'm gonna turn on subtitles to make sure no one sees. Yep. Isn't that cool though? Wouldn't you love that when you're 90, to be in a video game?

I would love it when I was now. I would love it when I was now. Yeah, when I was now. That is one thing that I've really wanted to do and I've not been able to get in. I don't know how you get in that door. It is a very niche world, isn't it? I did it for one game a million years ago

because a guy was a fan. And it was some, I think it was like a wrestling game and I played the medic in the wrestling arena. Nice. Even though I was in- I had to be sarcastic to everybody. Jurassic World video games. Try not to break your leg again.

Like that kind of shit. Sarcastic medic. Even cartoons, I'd love to do more cartoons, but I've only done three and I feel like two haven't come out. One was porn. One was deleted. But I did Invincible and it was one of the rare occasions

where I left something feeling like I did a good job because the people told me I did. Aw. Aw, you need I did a good job because the people told me I did. Oh, you need someone to say good job. Well, no, you know how you always leave and you're like, I felt like they didn't enjoy that at all. I don't always think that when I leave, that might be you. Even I don't always think that.

But you know what I mean? Like, you know, it's like, no, no, I know. Where you can't tell at all. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can't tell what the reaction was. Yeah, yeah. But that was a good one where Robert told me how funny it was. Robert thinks.

De Niro. Yeah, Bobby. Pretty good. Cannavale. Pretty good. Hey, I have jokes. Can you milk me? Why would I milk your jokes?

Why would you say I have jokes? Can you milk me? Because he just wants to be milked. I have Colin Joe's. Can you milk me? I just want to be milked. I have Colin Joe's. Can you milk me? I just want to be milked. Is that so wrong? Who could forget John Lovett's famous Harvey Fierstein impression? Remember when Harvey Fierstein said, I just want to be loved. Is that so wrong?

Harvey Fierstein was so well known that you could do an impression of him and people would go like that's great Yes, he I mean that voice very it was very distinct But like there it was a certain period of time when what was his movie that came out? Mrs. Doutfire No, no Yeah, but the one based on song trilogy, yes. No. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. It's great Can I say I have some Mrs. Doubtfire news? Whoa, diddy diddy diddy diddy diddy diddy diddy diddy.

As you all know. Sorry, this has been preempted by Chappie News. As you all, what? This is some Chappie News? Chappie is back on the scene. As, that sounds like, from a comical. What's your news, dear? As you know, I've never seen Mrs. Doubtfire.

Oh, right. I know the things that you need to know about it. So I'm all set. It's based on a book. But. I'm watching a movie. Called Mrs. Doubtfire. Called.

And I'm like, this is eerily familiar. No, no, no, it's called Mr. S. Doubtfire. Okay. And I was watching this movie called Holland. Yes, I heard of this. I want to watch this. Starring Nicole Kidman and Matthew McFadden. I was about to press play on that the other day. At one point in the film, Nicole Kidman's at home watching a movie on video cassette.

No. That movie is Mrs. Doubtfire. So you've seen it by proxy. I have seen more Mrs. Doubtfire. So you've seen it by proxy. I have seen more Mrs. Doubtfire than I've ever seen before. Whoa. How long, is it like 20 minutes she just watches this? Yeah, kind of, I thought that was bold. She watches the first third,

like right when the movie starts. And then she goes to the- She's like, I'm gonna put a pin in this. And then she's like, wait, I think there's something I'm supposed to do. Another character, she sits down. She goes to Holland. She has a whole plot. She sits down in front do. Another character, she's, she's down in front of the TV. Somebody comes in and starts arguing.

Hold on a second. I need to watch this movie. She watches the first 20 minutes of Mrs. Delphi. And then the person finally gets fed up and says, I really need to talk to you. She's fine. She pauses it. And then the movie kind of starts.

But then what happens is someone comes over and they're like, we'll be watching Mrs. Doutt fire. And she's like, oh yeah, I just watched the first 20. And they're like, I've never seen, do you mind if we start over? It doesn't get good until, oh. And then they put it again again. Put it again.

And then, put it again. Put it again. Cole says, I could watch the first 20 minutes over and over again. And then she watches the, in this movie, she watches the first 20 minutes of Mrs. Doutt fire three times total. Well, she was told, and this is, she watches the first 20 minutes of Mrs. Doubtfire three times total. Well, she was told, and this is like back story that I run up IMDB, that she was told

by someone, another character that we don't see in the movie, that if you watch the first 20 minutes three times, you have much more like empathy for the character because you see him as himself much more. And so you care, you know, so it, she's just someone who her character struggles with empathy. And so her friend was telling her like, you know what, just kind of lock in with the backstory on the sky. And then you're going to feel like a lot more emotions. Do you think that there was any discussion, even like someone just casually bringing it up of like, Hey, Nicole, I don't know if you should be watching a videotape in a movie

because of your big famous campaign about going to the theater to see movies. Oh, sure, sure. And she's like, I know. Do you really think so? Because she's playing herself in the movie. Yeah. Which is strange. But like realistically, do you think there was anyone sitting there going like, should

you really be doing this? Can I just say, you know, we kind of joke about how Nicole Kidman, I think just generally in culture right now, we're joking about how she's in everything. Yes. But she made it a mission to work with female directors, do you know? And she's worked with like 20 already. You know what? Most people-

I can do that too. Great. Most people have worked with like, like many, many, many famous, famous actors have worked with like zero to one female. I think Tom Hanks made it a mission too. Yeah, she's worked with like a bunch now. Tom Hanks did too? He did.

And then he did the Mr. Rogers movie and then maybe it was like, maybe I won't do this. No. Of course, she's someone I know and that was a great movie. Mariel Hiller. That's right. I was very skeptical about that movie because I did not want to see somebody playing Mr. Rogers and I was so pleasantly surprised how well it was done.

You just can kind of embody anything, you know? Yeah. Even Chappie. I would love to see him play Chappie. One Chappie became one of the great roles. She's worked with 19 female. Have you seen Hanks' Chapp roles. She's worked with 19 female directors over the last eight years.

Good for her. I'd love to do 19 of anything. That's amazing. That's also my life. It's also too many movies in eight years. What I'm hearing is that you want to be in a movie with a female director and you want it to be animated and you want it to be a video game that comes from it.

Yes, I'll do it all. Total 360, I'll do the movie. I'll do the video game. I'll do everything. That's a lot available. I'm so available. Oh, that I've said it before. And I'll say it again. For brand new days, clay lovers, that's where they call up where they called emf crumb believable those cookies yeah there was a commercial it had two puns in it first Michael Buffer saying let's get ready to crumble whoa that's a crumbly or a crumbly. Well, and if it's chips ahoy, that's a third pun. I don't think it's chips ahoy. Okay.

I was wondering if it was cookies. No, I think it was. Your crumbly. What else would crumble? No, it's cookies. It's there in the whole. You don't want to say that your cookie crumbles. That's the way it does though.

That's negative advertising. Of course, we all know this. Crumbly-able. I know, I think know this. Crumb-Believable. I know, I think what they're trying to say is like, you know how when you eat cookies, you get crumbs all over? Guys, do you know how insane this is? What?

I searched Crumb-Believable, and then like this Reddit thing popped up for three to my number 105, which is called Crumb-Believable. We've talked about this already. So when you said I've said it before, and I'll say it again. It was 145 episodes ago though,

which is kind of insane. What did we talk about at it? I don't know. Crumb is disbelieving them. Here, let's see. Can we try to replicate what we talk? Or we probably just did. Yeah, I don't know, man.

I don't know, man. Hey, hopefully this is your first episode of a podcast. Now you want to go backwards. 145 episodes. You're really fixated on this. I know. Crumb podcast. Now you want to go backwards. 145 episodes. You're really fixated on this. I know. Crumbly, now what commercial was it though? Because this might be a-

Here, I'll look up crumb. I've already looked up- I'm looking up Crumbelievable commercial. Crumbelievable commercial. Oh my God. Cookies comes up. Guys, I knew it was not cookies. Was it Kraft Mac and Cheese?

Yes! But it said crumbly. Crumbles! They were called crumbles. God, they put crumbs on the top. They put crumbles. They breaded. They put crumbles.

Stop reducing them! What? You're minimizing them! Crumbles on the top? What? They're not crumbs, they're crumbles. I said crumbles! I've said it every single fucking time!

You said crumbs. Don't you castigate me. I heard you say, I'm castigating you. I'm castigating you. You could get sharp cheddar. Wag your soggy finger at me. So what if my finger's soggy? You get three cheese, you get mozzarella, crumbles.

I love this. I love this. I had crumbs on mac and cheese last night that Kool-Up made. Oh, it's so nice. She also puts a tomato on top of it. What? No.

Tomato on top of mac and cheese? Yeah, I'm not as into that. You don't like tomatoes. I don't, not really. Something I picked up on. Why are you watching me? I don't really like tomatoes in their natural form. I like them on sandwiches occasionally.

He doesn't like it on top of a salad. No. You don't like it on a pizza. You don't like a cherry tomato? Sometimes I like it on pizza. Like the Lord of the Rings guy? If you bite right into one, it's a big juice bomb of flavor. But you know, sometimes with tomatoes,

like I avoid it. You're a big juice bomb of flavor. I avoid a cherry tomato, but then I go, this is good for me and I'll just eat it. When you just see a cherry- I like a cherry tomato. But I don't like a regular- I like it to be sliced up.

I don't really want to be the one who creates the- It's easier. The juice memo. Yeah. You're crumbly. Don't make me create the juice. But a tomato slice on a sandwich, I feel, has the potential to ruin the sandwich.

No, no, no. I like a lot of tomatoes on a turkey sandwich. For example, let's talk about Jimmy John's. I'm going to get a turkey sandwich. I'm going to get extra tomatoes. I want them in there. That's your lunatic. That's madness. Really yummy. I like to, I like to go to Jersey Mike's and get it Mike's way. Of course you get a Mike's way. He knows how to do it. I will say Mike's way is it Mike's way. Of course you get a Mike's way. Mike's Mike knows how to do it. I will say Mike's way is like standardly good. I like Mike to serve it to me.

Yeah. You, you request Mike say this is my way. You get my husband to do it. Yeah. Any Mike will do. Any Mike. Yeah. Any Mike, what is that? Any dream will do. That's from, what is that?

Any dream will do. I love Joseph. What does that mean? What does that sentiment? Any dream will do. That's from what is that? Any dream will do. I love what does that mean? When I was a kid. Any dream will do. Oh, from Joseph and the main technical sense, but it sounds great. That that musical had a lot of great songs that I loved as a child.

And you should have seen one of my 150 performances of it. What did you play? I was King Herod. I was kind of just like chorus for maybe 30 and then I was Ruben for the next 120. Ruben Kincaid? Donny Osment. The French.

The Partridge Family's manager? Yes, Ruben Kincaid. He just drove up in a bus. Well, it wouldn't have been so weird because like it was a very pop culture heavy production where the Energizer Bunny walked across the stage. That's silly. Oh, this is 1990.

Wait, who is the guy from Partridge Family? A big part? Ruben Kincaid. No, who was the? Danny Maraducci? Teen guy. David Cassidy? Thank you.

I can't remember his name. Never forget. No, I'll never forget. Really? If I ask you next episode, will you remember? Yes. Okay. Here's the people we remember from the Partridge family.

We remember the actors I'm talking about. Shirley Jones. Shirley Jones, of course. Oh yeah. We remember David Cassidy. They were such a cute family. We remember Susan Day. And Bonnie Denaducci.

We remember Bonnie Denaducci. Bonnie Denaducci. The two children's names. The two cheese. The little ones. The two cheese. Lost to history. I've never seen an episode.

Ruben Kincaid played by Dave Madden, I believe. Never seen it. You've never seen The Partridge Family? Never, not once. What? We were a Brady Bunch household. We watched both. I've seen a ton of that show.

We preferred Brady Bunch. I don't think that it was syndicated in any local television station. I mean, it was when I was growing up. When I say local, I mean my local. Hey, guess what? You're an asshole. I'm going down to your local.

Going down to your local to watch your bar trees, family. I watched Heart Chains. I watched Brady Bunch. I loved them all. Great. I watched A Petticoat Junction. I didn't see that one. I watched Green Acres.

You know, that one always. I watched green acres. You know that one always I turned it off. Green acres frustrated me because everyone was so weird and this one guy was just trying to do simple things. I hate that kind of thing. It drove me crazy when people like it's like Amelia Bedelia which I'm sure I've talked about. Yes. Also she just doesn't understand idioms and you're like you know what I can't keep you can't let cats out of a bag every time. Catch up idiot! Yeah. How long? Come on! Yeah.

I also hated, I dream of Jeannie for that reason. Yeah, there's a lot of misunderstandings. Bewitched and all that, it's just like, oh no, is someone going to find out my thing? The world would be better if they did. Bewitched at least was not somebody being dumb. But I dream of Jeannie was like, she didn't understand things. She was sort of Amelia Bedelia. She took things literally. Yeah, or interpreted things liberally.

Yeah. That her master would say. Small L liberally. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. It was very conservative show. Um, we have to take a break. I'm so sorry. I want to apologize to both of you. Fine. I accept your apology. No, he wants to. He didn't do it.

That's chappy. King of the impossible, boo-doo. I have a question for you. Okay, I hopefully have an answer, but if I don't, I'm just gonna run out of the room really quickly. Okay, I mean, I would say take another guess. You want me to just hazard a guess, really? I don't want you to just leave, yeah. Okay, well, let I would say take another guess if you want me to just hazard a guess. I don't just leave.

Yeah. Okay. Well, let's hear the question. I might just leave. Okay. Here's the question. You don't want a new shirt just becomes your go to. Oh God, bye.

Does Paul know what a three-ter is? I don't think he does because he looked at me during the break and he said, what's a Chester?

What's a Chester? Is that why he was shivering? What's a Chester? What's a Chester? Chester? Yeah. Chester. Yeah.

He just doesn't know. I don't know. Oh well. Do you? I mean, a three-ter is a game that we like to play. It's also known as a buster. Let's do it then. Oh, okay. I mean, a creature is a game that we like to play. It's also known as a buster. Hmm. Let's do it then.

Oh, OK. Creature is a game we like to play, and it's also known as a buster. Also a buster, also known. Let's try it again. During the break, we were talking about various songs in choir or performances that we still knew our parts for. Yes.

Let's try to sing that lyric and make it nice. Okay. So you go high. Okay. You want to do the melody? I'll do the melody because I can't really do it. And I'll try to go low. Yeah.

Hey, Syzy, do you want to go high? And you went, uh. Hey, it's Three-Ture. That is not. Three-Ture is a game we like to play and it's also known as a buster. Okay Olaf. Also known. I wanted to make it nice. I can't figure out a high part of it. Three-Chur is a game.

Also known as a buster. You should go high next time. Alright, it's time for a Three-Chur. We're going to play Word Alley Oop. This is submitted bytrue. Yeah. We're gonna play Word Alley Oop. Yeah. This is submitted by Tim Ward. Yeah. I'm sure a descendant of Burt Ward.

I'm sure. Maybe related to mmm Ward. Mm mm mm. Was he hungry when he named himself that? Mmm Ward. Mmm, I wanna eat Ward. Good ward. Oh, Jesus. You're eating salad, you're scary to me.

No. So how does this game go, dear? Well, it's very simple. Each one of us will give, I.E. text, a word to the person on our left. Okay. Okay? We do a short scene.

Every player has to try to use the word. Every player. I like this part. Each player must try to use the word. You must try. I didn't get it out. What if you don't succeed? I didn't get it out.

No, you have to use the word. I gotta go with my man Yoda here. Do or do not, there is no try. Wow. That's probably where he got that. Yes. From this game. And then we try.

Excuse me. We try. We have to guess. Simply must. We can guess incorrectly or correctly, but we have to guess. Oh, that's nice we have those options. So you can guess wrong. You can, and you still get a point for that.

So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess wrong. So you can guess incorrectly or correctly, but we have to guess. the other person's word was that they had to say. Exactly. It's very simple. It all it all come out cleanly. It all come out in the wash when we play.

Let's just text each other a word. And we're going to text the person on our left. Person on my left is Paul. Person on my left is Lauren. And I'm putting Paul's name in. I'm not putting anyone else's name in. Done. Done.

I just got my word. I've received my word. I just received my word. I just received my word. And go. Hi. Can somebody help me here? Oh yeah, I'm sorry, you dropped your whole briefcase. I dropped my whole briefcase.

Oh. All of it. I've never seen anyone drop all of their briefcase before. I'm so sorry. And it spilled all my papers all over the place. The subway, they're going to get blown into the subway tracks. Oh, I know. It's a calamity.

Okay. And so what I need... This is inconceivably difficult for you to do. Okay, Wallace Shawn. That of course... It's Wallace Shawn. Inconceivable! It's inconceivable!

Alright, let's stop goofing around. So my papers, you see the sheaf of papers? Yeah, that's a whole ream of papers. It's a ream and a sheaf. It's a gaggle. Yeah, this is like a nonillion papers right there. It's like an abominable amount. You're telling me and I have to put this incorrigible amount of papers back in the order in which they

were. This is going to be detrimental to your schedule, I have to say. Oh, it's going to be demoralizing and enervating. I think that your life might be enriched by this experience, though. If I put these in, if I order these- They should be in numerical order. Well, that I order these. They should be in numerical order. Well, that's the thing. They should be doubly stacked, much like cookies.

They're not only alphanumeric, they're alphanumeric. And if I put them in order incorrectly, I will be disintegrated from my job. Wait, what is your job that you would be disintegrated? I have to stand in front of the disintegration machine so you can calibrate it. Wait, this is like in Watchmen, right? Who? Ribs? Has everyone said their word? I have. I have. I have. All right. Is yours? There were a couple that I thought. Oh, of course. That's how he plays. This is fun. This isn't great.

No. You want another guess? There was two that you said back to back in a sentence where it felt like one of those was one of them. Was that what? It was. You'll have to be a little bit more specific. What was it?

Incorrectly. Oh, would not have guessed that. You had much crazier words. Let me guess yours. I'm gonna say incorrigible. No. Okay, enriched? Yes.

Oh, that was my second choice. Your word, if I had been paying attention, I would say- I know, this is your fatal flaw. This is my fatal flaw. You were talking the most in that scene, which I think probably made it hard to- You're great at doing- You guys kept asking me questions.

But you're- I know, I was very focused on you, I don't know why. You're great at doing... You guys kept asking me questions. I know, it was very focused on you. I don't know why. You're great at doing red herring words. Yes. You're not great at listening to... This is my strength. This is my strength. Oh, I thought chief might have been your word. Chief is a good word.

Yeah. But no. All right, let's do it again. Wait, I have to take one guess. Yeah, one guess. And I'm allowed to guess incorrectly. Yes, you are. What words did Scott say?

What words did Scott say? What words does Scott say? Pleiades? Pleiades? I don't think I ever said that. No, you didn't. I have no idea. Mine's detrimental. Detrimental! I threw in a few red herrings, but you threw a few red herrings too. I did. Let's go to our right. Let's go to our right. You can catch on. OK. Warren is to my right. Scott is to my right. I'm sending Paul a word. I've sent my word. I've got it. I've sent my word. Oh boy, I can't wait for this word. Typing took me like five tries.

I had to keep going back. I got it. All right. This is actually our who are you? God damn it. What's your name? To a scene. What's your name? Who are you? God damn it, Jesus. What's your name? It's not to a C. What's your name?

Who are you? Identify yourself. My name's Brenda. You're taking the tour of the candy factory right now, are you not? Yes I am. Do you need a verbal assent from me? You seem to not know where you were or who I was, so I'm trying to make sure you're on the same page.

Just because I don't know who you are doesn't mean I don't know where I am. Okay, you seem to. You and I have never met. So how would I know who? Thank God. I'm taking this candy factory tour because I want to be concupiscent with the Reese Cups. I want to pat the peppermint patties and I want to be betwixt the twixes. A good one.

I want to have sex with this candy. Is that coming through? As you can see these vats are overflowing with candies. We have pecan candies and chocolates and all sorts of delicious. What a preponderance of pecans! There's absolutely way too much. We're absolutely overwhelmed by the amount that we have here. Do I need to buzz in to ask a question? No you don't. Or bling the bell? You don't have to bling the bell. You are being inscrutable. What do you need? Do I need to buzz in to ask a question? No you don't. Or bling the bell? You don't have to bling the bell. You are being inscrutable.

Ring the bell. What do you need? I need to know what is candy. Okay, so he's from another planet. He started from square one. Yeah, it's a sweet treat here. Oh, this makes total sense. We're absolutely baffo with the stuff.

I have no clue what his was. It might be a Scott thing. I think if you think on it, there was one specific thing that you even took note of. Do you wanna guess, Lawrence? I mean, I wanna say baffo. Yes. Okay. You said it twice.

Does baffo mean a lot? Yes. Okay, cause I didn't really know. But in a box office sense. It's only in terms of box office. It's like a variety word. Yeah. Baffo!

It kinda means successful. Okay, well I used it wrong. I'm gonna say cornucopia, but I don't know. No. You say too many words. It's true. What is it? Betwixt.

Betwixt, the twixt. How lucky for you that twixts came up. What was yours? Mine was bling. That misspeak was not a misspeak! Wow, now that's good. That's good. Now that's good.

Now that is good. Good gameplay. Good game, everyone. Good game. Should we do another round or no? Sure. Let's do one more. Okay.

No, I just need a second. Okay, this guy needs a second. Oh, I spelled it wrong. Oh, rea- okay. Cause it is a thing.

Yeah, but, uh, it's this. Okay. I just need clarification. But it's pronounced similarly to those words that I had. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Standing in the front porch telling me. Hey, everyone, do you mind coming a little bit closer? You guys are so far away.

I just don't wanna. How close are you talking about? This is making me uncomfortable. I'm just. I just don't wanna get too close because I don't want you to be able to grab me. Yeah. How about six feet away? Is that okay? You seem like a guy

who's looking for a fuck buddy. My arms are only, my arm span is probably your arms too short to box with God. Okay, so I'm not going to be your sex toy. Not going to be your concubine. I'm trying to teach you how to figure skate here. Oh, I need you to read the situation. I am so sorry. I got this.

What? Indiana Jones did what? The archeologist. Indiana Jones does what? Indiana Jones does what? I only want to learn the simplest moves. OK, so the most basic move is just skating. Do you know how to do that?

No. We can start there, move up to like a triple Saukow or something. Do you mean skating in an ecumenical sense? I don't think so because I don't know what that means. What do you mean by that? You're being obtuse. Did everyone say their word? Yes.

I did. I did too. I did. Who am I supposed to guess? Me. You. Oh shit. I mean, I feel like I always catch yours.
