Starting point is 00:00:00 Other People's Problems was the first podcast to take you inside real-life therapy sessions. I'm Dr. Hilary McBride, and again, we're doing something new. The ketamine really broke down a lot of my barriers. This work has this sort of immediate transformational effect. Therapy Using Psychedelics is the new frontier in mental health. Come along for the trip. Other People's Problems Season 5, available now. Freedom!
Starting point is 00:00:38 Freedom! If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and dial. Freedom! There is a bug in here. Do you remember? Oh my God, you're being listened to? There's a bug, yes, that's right. I told you to swap this place. Why are you talking about the plan? Use.
Starting point is 00:00:57 The plan. Everyone is talking about the plan. The plan, boss, the plan. Hey boss, there's a bug in here. Boss, boss, boss. Lauren's saying nonsense until she puts her phone down. This is how I'm engaged while I'm reading my phone. Get it down to my do not disturb for y'all.
Starting point is 00:01:13 I'll put it in my purse. What? Unless I have to Google. You'll put it in your purse? I'll put it in my purse unless I have to Google. No one thought that except you. No one thought that you freak ass. But I said it because I thought it. Well I guess someone thought it. No one thought that except you. No one thought that you freak ass. But I said it because I thought it.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Well, I guess someone thought it. Yeah, you're no one. Oh, Paul Dan. Oh, shit. Dan, no, Dan. Freedom Stats. No, no, no, no. Hey, goodbye.
Starting point is 00:01:37 I am embarrassed to say that- I turned it up. I'm embarrassed. Dang. Whoa, I'm embarrassed to say that we all sang that at my high school graduation. You should be embarrassed. I admire it.
Starting point is 00:01:47 We sang, like spontaneously it broke out and all of the graduates like raved. How could you not? Of course you could. I'm not saying we choreographed. No, but I'm saying if somebody starts it, of course everyone is gonna join. I mean, I joined even when you just said it.
Starting point is 00:02:01 You can't help, but even though you're being flame roasted. Can I tell you, and I know you started to say flame-roasted. You are being wood-fired. I'm being flambéed. Should we close that door? Yeah, let's shut that door. You know, for sound. Vacuum packed.
Starting point is 00:02:15 It's funny it wasn't open a second ago. I guess there's a ghost. There's a ghost in here. What if it's just a big fly? It opens the door on its own. Pardon me. A fly leaning against it and going EEEEHHHHHH
Starting point is 00:02:30 That's so gross. We have this fly killer that's like a tennis racket that electrocutes them. Which makes you feel like you're getting exercise while killing something. Move over, pickleball! And I don't think flies deserve life. I don't feel bad saying that. But every once in a while, and I don't think flies deserve life. I don't feel bad saying that.
Starting point is 00:02:45 But every once in a while, I feel like it's kind of- Mosquitoes definitely don't. Well, it's kind of insane when you kill a fly with this thing and then it doesn't immediately die and it goes like, it starts to like smoke up and then you have to eat it. What? You have to. Well, now-
Starting point is 00:02:57 Because it smells so delicious. It's been cooked. Well, it's meat. Yeah, it's weight. And now it's a waste to throw it away. It's just protein. It's just protein. Just eat it, idiot. It's eyes speaking of Nana. Hey, goodbye When do you remember that TV show best week ever that I?
Starting point is 00:03:14 Every day When I hosted it it lasted for a year and then it was very obvious that the show was not coming back Even though they wouldn't say that it was cancer. I hate that. They would just avert their, your gaze anytime you ever talked to them. And so I want, we had in the script. The cameras would just turn off spontaneously. And be like, we're out of here. Spontaneous turn off.
Starting point is 00:03:34 You could just keep talking. I had in the script that I would, the last thing that I would say right down the barrel of the camera was, see you in hell. And then the fucking, this producer that we had was like, no, you can't say that. And it was clearly because he was still gonna work there. And he was worried it was somehow gonna be-
Starting point is 00:03:51 I can't burn the bridge. Because he was religious. I won't be there. He, yeah, he was like, no, you don't understand. This is not actually correct. I'm going to heaven, so why are you telling a lie, which is a sin? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Speaking of which, sins? Yes, indeed, I heard Scott on a Good Christian Fun podcast. Oh yeah, I did that. That was really fun. I just met the two hosts when they were on my other show. Kevin and Caroline. Talking about Passion of the Christ. And so I was on their show
Starting point is 00:04:18 and it was a good conversation, I felt like. Talking all about religion and shit. That's a fun show. I've done that show. I have too. We've all done it. Yeah, I was the last. They said I completed the Freedom Trifecta. That's great. Being on it've done that show. I have too, we've all done it. Yeah, I was the last, they said I completed
Starting point is 00:04:25 the Freedom Trifecta. That's right. That's great. Being on it. And I was like, you could have asked me five years ago, I would have been on it. Would you like us? I'm not a whore, yeah, sure. I'm sitting around waiting.
Starting point is 00:04:33 I don't give a shit. I remember five years ago, you were like, I'm not doing any podcasts that aren't all about me. Yeah, well, then I finally was like, okay, me and or Jesus. That's a good concession. It's decent. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Did you learn anything new about me? Deez nutsens. I feel like I did and I meant to talk about it today and then I forgot. Oh, okay. You forgot what you learned or forgot to talk about it today. I forgot what I learned.
Starting point is 00:04:57 I'm talking right now about it. Okay. So that covers that. I forgot that you were talking about it. I did half. It's a job half done. Yeah. That's perfect. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Perfect. That's absolutely perfect. That's absolutely perfect. So you, so what did you say instead of see you in hell? Bye. I honestly can't remember. You're sick. And that's the end of our season.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Maybe we'll be back for more. Pfft. I can't wait till they reboot the show without me. Wow. Did they? Which they did and then that didn't last either. Did yours last longer? No, I don't think so. I think it lasted the same time.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Who was on that? I don't know. It was a bunch of new comedians that I was not familiar with. I never saw it. I never saw it. Too painful. Yeah, can't go back there. Couldn't do it.
Starting point is 00:05:40 No, no, no. Whoever's hosting, no, you showed up now. I don't watch that either. What if they rebooted that? They scrubbed that from the internet. Whoever's hosting, no, you showed up now. I don't watch that either. Yeah. No. What if they rebooted that? That would be good. It's just a puppet. They scrubbed that from the internet.
Starting point is 00:05:48 They're like, there's no videos up anymore. Is there? No, you can't even see it anymore? Sometimes when things are completely scrubbed, I'm like, I'm a little confused by that because there are things that I think should be scrubbed that aren't. Yeah. For sure.
Starting point is 00:05:55 But then they'll just get rid of some like show that was like whatever. And then just like erasing. It's weird when, how did that happen? When Netflix scrubs one of their own shows that only is on Netflix. Yeah, like why not just have it on there forever? Like who cares? Yeah, who gives a shit? It's just an option. It's bandwidth maybe. When Netflix scrubs one of their own shows that only is on Netflix. Why not just have it on there forever?
Starting point is 00:06:06 Like who cares? It's just an option. It's bandwidth maybe. Yeah. The idea that it might gain an audience later, like a show you didn't perform well enough at the time. There are so many things
Starting point is 00:06:16 I'll never be able to find on there. The Spotify algorithm has made the most popular pavement song this weird B-side, I think like that. And there was an article about it, I don't recall why that particular song became the most popular pavement song, but now they play it in concert and everyone's like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:06:30 because everyone's heard that song. That's so weird. The algorithm did this. The algorithm. See, we need to be afraid. We do. Is the algorithm just listening itself? Constantly afraid.
Starting point is 00:06:39 We need to be afraid all the time. The flow. I want your heart rate rising at all times. Even in sleep. Yeah, more in sleep, because you can't control what's going on. Guys, I've been having the worst sleep lately. Really?
Starting point is 00:06:49 I'm just waking up all the time. And what do you do? It's the worst. I fall back to sleep pretty quickly. Okay, good. But it's like several times during the night. I just wake up and then I like turn over and then I fall back to sleep.
Starting point is 00:06:59 You're like, okay, I feel this bed. I'm here. Although I did. I'm here in my big pillow. Not floating in space. The other day when we were in Vegas, Okay, I feel this bed. I'm here. I'm here in my big pillow. Not floating in space. The other day when we were in Vegas, I took a nap and Janie was-
Starting point is 00:07:10 What happens there stays there, Paul. Yeah, it's so personal. I'm breaking the code. TMI. I'm breaking the code. Taking a nap because my sleep is so bad. Is it immediately after we recorded the episode? Probably not long after.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Naps can be the best. I used to be anti-nap, and now I'm pro-nap. Why would anyone be anti-nap? I just didn't ever like to take a nap. I always felt kind of sick when I woke up. I was like, ugh. I had that for the longest time. But now I feel great.
Starting point is 00:07:33 It's the timing of it and making sure that you get the right amount. Well, I took a two and a half hour one yesterday. Oh my god. It was fantastic. That was because I had to wake up super early. They say 20 is perfect, but I'm more of a 45 minute guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:46 But there are times where I'm just sitting there and I'm like, I start feeling dizzy and tingly and I'm like, it's time to nap. And then it just like has to happen. When you give in, it's so great. Yeah, I try to relent. I know. I try to resist.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Let go and let God. Yeah, I never napped really until recently. Like the last few years outside. I wonder why you look so tired until just this last month. I know, I know and everything changed. You looked exhausted until very recently. It was every time either of us talked. So you suddenly looked exhausted.
Starting point is 00:08:16 You take micro naps while we're talking. A Z's came out of my eyes. A Z's? A Z's came out of my eyes. Hey man. I'm in your eyes man. I don't even know why I just thought whatever doesn't matter. Z's come out of your eyes. You think when you're reading a cartoon the Z's are coming out of the eyes?
Starting point is 00:08:35 You think when you're reading a cartoon. You think when you're reading a cartoon. I read cartoons. Now let me get this straight, you think when you're reading a cartoon. Do you think cartoons are not read? They're they're scanned. It sounds weird to say reading a cartoon. It does. It's wrong. What? OK.
Starting point is 00:08:55 What is right? Watch them. I want to. Well, also, what is love? Maybe don't hurt me. Wait, so I'm taking a nap, right? Yeah. Janie's in the bed next to me. She's reading a book. Yeah. I won't take a nap in solidarity? Janie's in the bed next to me, she's reading a book. I wake up- She won't take a nap in solidarity with you?
Starting point is 00:09:07 She said she was going to. And then she slipped off and read a book. I woke up and I think in the split second between sleep and awake, I forgot that she was in the bed next to me and I- Screamed. I did kind of scream. I went,
Starting point is 00:09:23 I like bolted upright. It was, yeah. And I was like I did kind of scream. I went, oh, oh, oh. I like bolted upright. It was, yeah. And I was like, why did that? It took me a while to figure out what happened. Yeah. Like, why did I do that? Yeah. It's weird when you like hear yourself do
Starting point is 00:09:33 something when you're asleep. Yes. I told you about the plane one that I was on where I screamed on the plane when I woke up. I don't think so. I think you did. OK, I apologize to anyone if I'm repeating this. But basically, I fell asleep with my iPod on. Your iPod open?
Starting point is 00:09:47 Yeah. With my eyes pods open. Keep one iPod open. And the other iPod in your pocket. Did you kind of miss iPods? You still use yours? Well, they now, iPods used to have more storage than phones, but now phones have more storage than iPods and they discontinued iPods. iPods used to have more storage than phones, but now phones have more storage than iPods and they discontinued iPods. iPods used to have more storage than phones, but now phones. 24 attack power, he big hit. But I like the idea of an iPod where that's what plays my music
Starting point is 00:10:12 and my, because it's like, we're using the phone for so many things. I don't really care, but I'm just saying that. I like consolidating it onto. So I- I like it being on the phone. The new phone that just came out now, it has so much storage. I'm like, this is great.
Starting point is 00:10:22 But you know what I'm, I would sort of like- You put some household items in there. And I guess I could just use like an iPad for this, but like, I would sort of like to have a Spotify device. Oh, a whole device just for Spotify. Just so it's like. Why don't you just buy a second phone. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:10:36 You know what I liked about the iPod? I really enjoyed the clicks on the wheel. Yeah, that's the problem. I like the clicks. You're trying to drive, and you reach down to fast forward a song, but you have to look down now to press the right button because there's no click or there's no like tactile thing.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Yeah, but actually, and I think we have talked about this, but I know exactly where my thumb goes on the fucking phone because I'm on it all a goddamn day. Because it's depressed into the glass. Speaking of depressed, I'm on my phone all day. Anyway, so I'm on the plane and I go to sleep with my iPod on and a song with a super slow fade out occurs and I just drift into the deepest slumber and then a really fast song
Starting point is 00:11:18 starts after that song and it scares me awake where I don't know what's happening. And then I see two people next to me. And I guess as part of my dream, I thought they were people. I thought I was in my house and there were people in my house looking at me on the bed or something. You scream, get out. And I went, ah, and which would be a great tactic for the people who break in your home. And everyone on the plane looked at me, including the two people next to me. And I went, I apologize.
Starting point is 00:11:52 I was having a weird dream and I thought I didn't know what was happening. And they just were like glared at me. You know, so I'm so frightened, so frightened because it was one of those things where I like, oh, I'm in my bed and I wake up in two st- I felt like I was in a science fiction show or something where two people looking at me. It's very scary. Maybe you were in a human zoo.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Yeah. I love to sleep on the plane. Watching me have sex. But I think that there's something very vulnerable about it when you're sleeping on the plane. It's like, you don't know what you're doing. You don't know. I could be saying something. I could be moving weirdly or going like drooling and like, you know.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Yeah, and anyone can see it. And everyone sees. Everyone turns and looks. You're talking about farting. The people that can see you... I think farting may have crossed my mind, but yeah, for sure. What's funny is that there's very few people that can see you on the plane. It's true, but in certain areas of the plane, such as first class, there's people who come in and check in on you.
Starting point is 00:12:44 I've never been, so I don't know. Oh, yeah, right! I hate when I'm in first class. I fall asleep immediately. And then everyone in the loser parade who goes getting on the plane has to file past me. On planes now, they shut down them going into our bathrooms. Ha ha ha!
Starting point is 00:13:01 That is such a fucked up thing. You're not allowed to use just any bathroom. It's fucking crazy. Let people use the bathroom. Scott and I are silent. No, no, no. By the way, for all you people out there who want to be upset about that,
Starting point is 00:13:18 we are for work purposes. They have to, they literally have to. Which is a beautiful word. Well, because you demanded it and it's in your contract. No, it's sag says they listen to this show. For work purposes, they have to. They literally have to. Which is a beautiful curve. Well, because you demand it and it's in your contract. I'm saying, I'm saying from either side of it. Oh yeah. Because I've been in a situation where- Well, definitely, Flo and Coach 5,
Starting point is 00:13:34 a trillion times, and we'll continue to. I'm a coach and both of the bathrooms are full and it's like, can I please just go in? It is crazy when you have to wait- You can tower your knees and beg. And you're in coach. Please! Through the curtain. And you wanna go in the front. Yeah. You wanna Through the curtain. And you wanna go in the front.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yeah. You wanna go in the front? You wanna go in the front. Hey! Party in the front. Coach in the back. You're going in the front, you're going in the back. Party in the front.
Starting point is 00:13:52 I will remember though, when we flew to Australia. Coach Craig T. Nelson in the back. We flew to Australia and you had a first class seat, which you're entitled to. Well, I paid for it. Yeah, I mean, that's why you're entitled. Yeah. And I was in the absolute last row of the plane
Starting point is 00:14:05 Which was fine, but it was I literally didn't stand up for 19 hours I like got into a ball Yeah, next to some where you can sleep really easily on planes you were saying that is true I just curled up into all and I just fell asleep for as long as possible Do you feel so vulnerable because you're curled up in a ball like a potato bug? Yeah Someone might think you're a potato bug? They'll just flick me right at the seat. When we went to Italy, I was in coach
Starting point is 00:14:30 and it was just like trying to sleep. Excuse me, Italy I believe you mean? Yes, Italy, I'm sorry, Mario Batali's Italy. Yeah. It's like a country in a way. It's very, you know, those seats are horrible. They're not good and it's not easy to sleep. It's mean to.
Starting point is 00:14:46 And it just ruins the whole first day that you're in another car. Yeah, I have to have my neck pillow and I have to like, but I debate whether I prefer window or aisle because window I can curl up and just go into the window. Yes, I've always preferred aisle
Starting point is 00:14:59 but now if you have to sleep on a plane, Yeah, you don't wanna sleep. You can't do it without a window. No, because then people are gonna step over you or they wake you up. I would rather be woken up than wake somebody else up. So I'm aisle all the way. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:12 You would rather be woken up than wake somebody else up. I'd rather move for someone else than have to ask somebody to move for me. Okay. Yeah, I don't really, I guess I feel the same about either option. I feel bad either way, so I don't like, I can't decide. Well, there's no, either way it sucks.
Starting point is 00:15:25 So it's which side of the suck do you want to be on? Flying is just bad all around. Do you remember the first time you ever took a plane? Ever rode on a plane, I guess? No. Yes. I mean, I guess maybe. Mine was to here to visit my sister who lived in Redondo Beach at the time.
Starting point is 00:15:40 I flew here today. I flew here for the first time. I was like, well, I gotta try it. So I went to Burbank and I said, drop me off at LAX. I'm trying to think. That's why Burbank's the greatest airport. You can ask her like custom destinations there. Just anywhere.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Just give me a pod down to, but okay, so you came out here to visit your sister? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was my first time on a plane. What was your sister doing here? She was pursuing the arts at the time. Which arts? The black arts.
Starting point is 00:16:09 The entertainment arts. Oh. Wow. Not the dark arts. Two Tompkins in the town. Two Tompkins in the town. Could've been. Two T's in the D.
Starting point is 00:16:18 On that trip I saw the band Billy and the, Billy, Vera and the Beaters in person. Did he sing? What would you give? Yes he did. If I told you this moment. What would you give if I told you this moment? Would you give me a penny?
Starting point is 00:16:33 Maybe a niggle. Maybe a hay penny will do. If you haven't got a hay penny. Fuck you. That's right, that's how we do it in America. Yeah. That was vaguely familiar, not having a hey, Penny.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Where did you, where did you see them? I can't remember the name of the venue. Oh, okay, maybe it's no longer here. I can't remember the name of the venue. It might not be here anymore, but it might be in landmark, who knows? And so, in what year was that? It was your first plane ride?
Starting point is 00:17:01 In 1984, it was an Olympic year. I also went to the Groundlings to see a show with Phil Hartman. Wow. He did a Chick Hazard mystery. Very exciting. You did tell us about this. Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:12 That's very fun. I saw, and I'm sure I told you, I saw a standup show at the Improv, which included Arsenio Hall. Wow. Rick Overton. I was a... 17 or something?
Starting point is 00:17:22 Sophomore. When I was 17. 17. You took a trip to London. I visited my sister when I was 17. You took a trip to London. I visited my sister in Redondo Beach. So your first flight was you were a teen. I was a teen. That's pretty memorable.
Starting point is 00:17:32 I was a teen. Really? I was a thuggish teen. 13 I believe. Where'd you go? And I flew to New York. This was the one vacation that I took as a child. Which teen, third?
Starting point is 00:17:42 Yep, third. We went to New York and then traveled all around to, to, from Maine, down to Virginia, Washington, DC, all that kind of stuff. So a whole bunch of stuff. What about Philadelphia Atlanta LA? We went to Philly. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. As I recall. Um, but yeah, I remember they, it was nice. So it was 1983 and they showed my favorite year on the projector. Oh sure.
Starting point is 00:18:05 On the screen they like erected the whole screen. I forgot about that. And everyone's smoking on the plane and all that kind of stuff. Everyone, people didn't want to. Yeah. Well everyone was. They would stick cigarettes in your mouth as you boarded. But they were even if they weren't,
Starting point is 00:18:18 you know what I mean? Exactly. Cigarettes will kill. It sure does. You know, I can't believe the number of people that, it's very strange to me because when I stopped smoking, I never looked back. Like I never had a craving for it again.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I never desired it again. And knowing people, I feel like I meet more people who are like, I miss it. I wish I could smoke again. Oh, I think most people miss it. It's so wild. I can't get my head around that. Yeah, well, it's good that you have that reaction. Yes, because when I was ready again. Oh, I think most people miss it. It's so wild. I can't get my head around that. Yeah, well, it's good that you have that reaction.
Starting point is 00:18:46 Yes, because when I was ready to quit smoking, it had become disgusting to me and I was still doing it. Yeah. I was like, I don't want to do this anymore. Yeah. One of those things I'm glad I never took up. Same. That's the one thing I would change.
Starting point is 00:18:59 And the only thing you would change? Everything else is like, hey, that's the fucking school of hard knocks. You know what I mean? You make your dumb mistakes. But smoking is like the amount of money and health issues and whatever that I wasted on that dumb thing.
Starting point is 00:19:16 I wish I'd never done it. Do you think, do you, well, no, I'm not gonna. I think. Yeah, you are then. Therefore. I can't believe it. Oh, by the way. Oh, you are then. I can't believe it. Therefore. Oh, by the way. Oh, tell us Paul.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Is this, is this Oh, by the way with Paul F. Tompkins? Yes. Is this about how you are? Oh, by the way, I'm great. After we recorded last week. In Las Vegas, you were in Las Vegas. Then what? I did go to the roulette table. I did put down a hundred dollars
Starting point is 00:19:51 and I did bet it on black. Wow. And did it land on? Green. Green! When you text us that. That's one of the more rare ones. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:01 What is green? Green is the double zero, baby. Oh, it's the double zero. Yeah, never bet on green. Yeah, no one's, baby. Oh, it's the double zero. Yeah, never. I don't agree. Yeah, no one's betting on green. That's like the most unlucky. It honestly felt like,
Starting point is 00:20:11 it honestly felt like, oh, this is just rigged. Just someone's fucking with you. Like this guy, he wants to get rid of me. Right, you like took one look at you. Let's drive this guy out of the casino. You think black and red is 50-50, but it's really not. It's really not. What is it, 48, 48, 2?

That's stupid. This is like Frankenstein's monster. Because his name was Raymond and Rain Man couldn't say it.

Starting point is 00:21:28 She was the most beautiful that I ever dated. That's why I've been so drawn to you all these years. She met Albert Brooks at this some fancy event or something. And she said, oh, I actually I saw your brother recently. And Albert Brooks

Starting point is 00:22:16 That did not necessarily come up on this podcast. No, on the Good Christian Fun Podcast. No, I know, I'm saying how we never discussed this. Scott just likes to focus on the negative No, you're all about I'm riding into riding blindly into cars they they they hated mr. Sho, but they but But they liked that one. What are you shaking in your hand there buddy? Oh water cap What were the names of those off-bread sneakers Chewie's? What were they called?
Starting point is 00:22:43 Jaws and Sharkeys. Oh, okay, I said Jaws. Jaws was the male version. My feet were narrow so I had to buy Sharkeys. Everyone knew. Everyone knew. Everyone knew. But they looked the same, didn't they? No, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, but they had a slightly different picture and everyone pointed at my feet and said,
Starting point is 00:22:58 Those are girl shoes! You're a girl! Well, that's cool. Yeah, it is cool. Sounds good to me, absolutely. Sounds good to me, man! Yeah, dude, it rocks up in here. Lauren, when you were little, were you enamored of the Olsen twins? Like when you would see What's Her Name on Full House going like, okay, dude, were you like, this is the act?
Starting point is 00:23:08 I gotta act like that into my 30s. You know, I don't recall if I was, you know, at the time going like, oh, she's so cute. I just loved the show. Yeah. I was like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute.
Starting point is 00:23:16 I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute.
Starting point is 00:23:24 I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, she's so cute. I'm like, oh, I don't recall if I was, you know, at the time going like, oh, she's so cute. I just loved the show. I loved all the characters. Did you wanna live inside the show? I would've been happy to live in the house that they lived in. It was a huge, beautiful house.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Would it have been like, did it ever make you say, oh, I wanna move to San Francisco because it was set in San Francisco, wasn't it? I, you know, often wondered what that would be like, but they didn't really show much San Francisco ever in that show. They went to Disney World. Did they ever go outside? That was the only real time they ever went, and that wasn't San Francisco, obviously.
Starting point is 00:23:51 So they never showed, you know, Grant Avenue. No, in the opening. The Tenderloin. In the opening credits, they show the hill. Right. That's about it. That everyone died on. They never go to Abbott Kinney. But I did once walk over to the Full House House. That's in Venice. That's about it. They never go to Abbott Kimmy. But I did once walk over to the Full House House.
Starting point is 00:24:07 That's in Venice. Yeah. Yeah. When I was visiting. Yeah. You're thinking of Hayes. They never went to the Empire State Building. What is it called? They never went to. Haydashberry. That's what I was thinking. The Glendale Galleria. That's what I was thinking of.
Starting point is 00:24:22 It sounds basically the same. Same thing. Yeah. I did go see the house, the Full House House when I was thinking. It sounds basically the same, same thing. Yeah. I did go see the house, the full house house when I was in San Francisco once during a show. Simply most darling. And it was a bit of a hike. And when I got there, a lot of people were taking photos and it was really fun to see it, honestly.
Starting point is 00:24:40 They painted the door a different color. And I was like, you know what? I'll check you out of this in post. Here's how I feel. Yeah. If you buy a house that is a famous- Iconic house, keep it the way it is. but they painted the door a different color. And I was like, you know what? I'll take care of this in post. Here's how I feel. If you buy a house that is a famous lander- Iconic house, keep it the way it is. They're gonna take pictures anyway.
Starting point is 00:24:51 It's just disappointing to see it different. Then they have to Photoshop their pictures. Yeah, like the Home Alone house is in Wilmette, not far from where I grew up. And the Father of the Bride one is around here. And I went to that, which I loved. And the Pee Wee house, which it's looking pretty rough, I would say.
Starting point is 00:25:08 But I think they were fixing it up. Pee Wee should buy it. Yeah. You should buy it and live there. The Brady Bunch house, they renovated for a TV show. Yes. They did like a remodel show. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:25:19 But yeah. I thought that's such a fun idea. Although like actors came back to like be a part of it and stuff, but. Angling for their own shows. Yeah. Yeah. I thought that's such a fun idea. All the like actors came back to like be a part of it and stuff, but. Angling for their own shows. Yeah. Wait, all the Brady Bunch actors?
Starting point is 00:25:30 Yeah, the Brady Bunch kids did. And so they like renovated the house and then it was like, they showed the. They renovated. All six came back? Maybe only five, I can't remember. Yeah, I don't think so. But they renovated it to look like the actual house
Starting point is 00:25:42 from the show because inside it looks like. Yeah, I heard about this. But then what are they doing? Who lives there? Like, what do you do with that? Well, they were gonna Airbnb, Renovated it to look like the actual house from the show because inside it looks Who lives there like what do you do with that? Well, they were gonna air be and do it as an expensive Airbnb or something I would totally say that where like you could say yeah, that would be so fun. Let's all stay there Wait, that would be hilarious. Stay there for one night and record shows and if we see a ghost what if one of the The art Robert Reid What if one of the rules was the ghost of the art Robert Reed
Starting point is 00:26:08 So like not Robert the character The house that we'd be sitting he was an architect I know Here talk about building his own house or was he just like yeah, I bought this but I'm an architect or would he only do high-rises I Don't think we saw his blueprints very often. We saw them once. Once? I think they went to Disney, right? Well, even- They went to some amusement park. Why are they going to Disney? Everyone goes to Disney.
Starting point is 00:26:29 I just said a full house went to Disney. They always go there. They always go there, or Hawaii. They used to go back in the day. Or Hawaii. Well, I've heard pretty much about Hawaii, and that's where they had that- Growing in the sun.
Starting point is 00:26:37 That token or totem that was bad luck. When he was surfing. Yeah. So when you were growing up, I wanna get back to an earlier question. When you were growing up in Chicago. Will you please throw that cap away? At you.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Acceptable. When you were growing up in Chicago, was there any TV show where you were like, that's where I wanna live, or was it all just Los Angeles because there was show business there? No, I always wanted to live in New York. And then any show that was in New York,
Starting point is 00:27:03 I thought was really cool, like Friends.. Do you know, I never thought about living someplace else when I was a kid. Oh I always wanted to live in New York but mostly when I was in high school that's when it really solidified that I was like I gotta be where the bright lights in the big city. I think I was too cowardly to imagine ever moving. Out of Philadelphia? Yeah. And did that trip to Redondo make you go like oh I could see LA being a viable choice? No, it didn't. Really? You were like, you're so cowardly to imagine it, and yet you did it. You're like, Billy Vera is everywhere.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Well, that was a physics. There are Olympic athletes everywhere. No, but it's so, eventually I did. Well, eventually I had to put away Childish Things. I was like, man. Yeah. But I was scared when I moved here. It was like, I never, I, to do something that huge and not have any conception of what it
Starting point is 00:27:43 was going to be like. Of what it's like, yeah. It's crazy. I was lucky enough, I grew up in Orange County, so I knew where the Universal Amphitheater was. Man's Chinese Theater. You basically are from, that wasn't from LA, but you are close enough that you would have been there.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Yes, but it still seemed. No, it's a whole different world. But because I remember my roommate was a friend of mine from down in Orange County, and he moved to the valley and he was like, yeah, I'm moving to LA. Of death. Yeah. Oh God.
Starting point is 00:28:12 He was like, I'm moving to LA. I'm like, oh cool. And I couldn't even conceptualize where one would move to in LA. And he's like, I'm in the valley. And I was like, what's that really? I didn't, I didn't even know the distinction. Okay. Well then it's a whole new world.
Starting point is 00:28:22 I feel like when I would picture New York in high school before I, I mean, I'd been there on a family trip, but when I'd picture living there, I would just picture Times Square. It's like, I couldn't think of like, what an apartment would be. Or like NYU or something. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:28:34 But my friend went to NYU. New York University for people that don't know. And then I went to visit her when I was a senior. She was two years older than me. You were 79? Yeah. Yeah. And that was really fun. Cause then she, I got to see what her life was like. Oh, and what was it like? She was two years older than me. And- You were 79? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:45 And that was really fun. Cause I got to see what her life was like. Oh, and what was it like? It was just so fun. She was living in the dorm and it was like- She was living in the Statue of Liberty's crown. It was so cool. Like, you know, all her friends,
Starting point is 00:28:56 like going out at night for, you know, street food and like just being out and about, having fun. There were street fighters. Street fighter twos. They were pulling Fighters. Street Fighter IIs. They were pulling people's spines out. Yeah. Finishing him, et cetera. Et cetera.
Starting point is 00:29:15 So then. That was a great trip. And I was so happy my mom let me go do that, because I got to fly by myself and go. See, when I came here when I was a teenager, I still had that, that just irrational dislike of California that people anywhere have to have. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know people like, I mean, I remember that as well.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Like growing up, I feel like LA had so many stereotypes about it that were negative that I never really thought about it. Did you think everyone talked like this, dude? Yeah, that everyone was like, where's the beach like the Californians? Man, yeah, I like British people doing English American accents, the Californians. Let's go to the Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:30:04 Road urine. Even after I lived here. American accents. The Californians, let's go to the Hollywood bowl. She goes to sleep in a pool of ron-urin. Even after I've lived here. That's your way in. Yeah, a pool of ron-urin. I saw two things, the real world season six, I think when they were in Seattle, that made me go like, oh man, Seattle would be cool to live in.
Starting point is 00:30:18 And it was before I'd ever been. Then I went to Seattle. That real world made it look cool. It did because they had that cool house. Because they were right there on the pier. Yeah, it was really cool. And then I went to the piers and everything, I'm cool. It did because they're right there on the pier. Yeah, it was really cool. And then I went to the piers and everything. I'm like, oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:30:28 Which season was that? That was Irene and David where the slap. Come on me, my baby. No, no, they just did a reunion. Did you watch a reality recap? Yeah. I did not. Was it Steven who slapped her? I watched.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Sorry, Steven slapped. Yeah, David's actually kind of cool now. Wait, reality recap. Yeah, have you seen the Paramount Plus series where they get those cast together? Okay, the New Orleans one is supposed to be really good. I haven't watched it yet. I watched it, it's good.
Starting point is 00:30:52 There's one cast member that makes me very uncomfortable because she seems to be. Thought you were gonna say something else. Having some sort of mental illness crisis. Oh dear, oh dear. I know. Oh dear. But. So she dear. Oh dear, oh dear. But.
Starting point is 00:31:06 So she's definitely stopped being polite. Yes. But it is very good. It's interesting. Yeah, I watched a bit of the first season with New York and I really was enjoying it. Yeah, that one was very fascinating. Season two made me depressed because it was the LA cast
Starting point is 00:31:21 and everyone was having the exact same arguments that they had 25 years ago. And I was like, do people ever change? And even in this new New Orleans one, it's kind of like the super religious guy is still super religious. But don't you sort of think that because they were on that show together, which like really was a big thing. I'm very confused as to whether this is a new cast. No, it's the old cast from the 90s. Brought back into the same house or whatever.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Oh my God. If they can get the same house. Yeah, but they're the same idea. And so... Oh, we don't know if they can get the same house? Not every time. Season two, they couldn't. The place was gone.
Starting point is 00:31:56 So they got a similar place. But don't you feel like, because I think this is, rather than saying they don't change, I feel like if they were on a show together and the personalities clashed in whatever way and it was on TV and that was before there was a lot of reality TV and this was a huge show that everyone saw. And so you're talking about that for the rest of your life. I probably hold on to a lot of those things
Starting point is 00:32:16 and go like, oh, there's this fucking guy again. Cause for the last 30 years, I've been hearing about how I didn't say the right thing when you did the thing. I guess I would, my point I think with how people don't change is like, they get that out of the way kind of early where everyone like hashes out their issues
Starting point is 00:32:30 of what happened on the show, then they either forgive each other or whatever. I'm saying after that point, they then just start repeating their actions. From the old season. From the old season where they have the exact same arguments that they had in the old season the exact same way. That is same way and the people fly off the handle in the exact same way they used to and no one seems to have matured I think it's different for this
Starting point is 00:32:51 new New Orleans season where people have like grown and there's a new New Orleans yeah I gotta go no not there's not a new cast. He's saying a new new city Ever yeah, we're gonna take a break. I was like just realized we were talking. Yeah. All right. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye Boy what's around the corner these days have you What'd you say? Fudge. Fudge, yeah. I know that's where it's made. Yeah, of course.

Starting point is 00:41:28 What's going on? Why are people so awful? This interview's over. People are really bad people. It's nuts. The Mormon girl is no longer Mormon, but she's the one that I fear for her mental health. Oh no, she needed the guiding.
Starting point is 00:41:40 She needed John Smith. The guiding light of religion, John Smith. Is that his name? What's his name? Joseph Smith. Joseph, that's right! Look in your hat. What? Look in your hat?
Starting point is 00:41:49 Yeah, he looked in his hat. I thought you were doing Miller's Crossing, with an accent. It's like I'm doing a parody of that. I see. Oh, it's always good when we explain our jokes. He would have his peepstones in his hat. He would have his, what are peepstones?
Starting point is 00:42:02 Explain peepstones to us. What did you try to say? The infinity stones? I said what I tried to say. Peepstones. What are peeps, I don't know this story, tell me about it. Okay, I don't. I have Mormon relatives.
Starting point is 00:42:15 No, I know about infinity stones. I have a Mormon blood. I'd love to be called about that. That beautiful, beautiful glove. Have you watched the last one yet or not? Yeah, the, what is it? Infinity War? Yep. Yes, I just watched it last night. I will not be speaking on this matter. What's really funny is that all questions should be directed to newcomers. When you see like
Starting point is 00:42:34 the replica of the infinity glove. When you see the replica you can buy of the infinity glove or whatever, it looks exactly like the one like it looks I know It's just as dumb No, I think that's the best part It really is? The infinity glove is gorgeous Exactly, they've successfully replicated it Those beautiful gems Yeah, it looks like plastic
Starting point is 00:42:54 I want them Yeah Yeah If I had to have anything I would want that It's interesting that those didn't take off the way that sometimes like fashion from a movie or something Everyone will start wearing Oh, like everyone's gonna start wearing that Yeah, like like as a fashion accessory Michael Jackson
Starting point is 00:43:24 And there's two Michael Jackson's standing over there staring at me like they have two I'm going to sleep and this is your nightmare. He was getting these messages that only he was allowed to see. They were like written on stones. Yes, I have heard of this. They're written on stones with marker or like? Probably marker. Yeah, because it was like, what year? 1500 or something? No, it was the 1800s.
Starting point is 00:43:57 It's a very young religion. It's young and youthful. And he would like look, from what I remember. Yeah, Mormonism explained by Paul F. Tumpkin from from what I remember. And yeah, Mormonism explained by Paul F. Tompkins from what he can remember. If I'm wrong about this, yeah, this is not drunk history. This is hazy history. You just go to Wikipedia.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Sober hazy history. And you learn about what you want to learn about everyone. But if I'm wrong, you can certainly look it up. And you can sue him, we'll even say that. I take all lawsuits over be getting this wrong if you can get me to court with this I look forward to being a challenge and so he the reason why it's very hard to get past the scammy nature of this religion is that Joseph Smith
Starting point is 00:44:46 is like, God is communicating to me. He's giving me these messages on these stones and only I can look at them. Everybody's like, okay. Sounds good to me. Yeah, well what do they say? Many, many religious things feels like they come back to something like that.
Starting point is 00:45:02 Yes, yes, yes. Right. So that was it. Or so I've heard. And they were called peepstones? I believe they were called peepstones that. Yes, yes, yes. Right. So that was it. Or so I've heard. And they were called peepstones? I believe they were called peepstones. Well, that's very silly. Wow. It's adorable.
Starting point is 00:45:09 And is that what peeps are named after? Yeah. Yes. That's what he's called. They're a Mormon candy. Yeah. Made by Mormons. For Mormons. Every time he looks at his hat, he just saw
Starting point is 00:45:21 he just saw peeps inside his hat. And then he's like, um, the the stones say he was like, was like panicking and making something seven and three quarters. I should be allowed to have five wives. That's such a flex when you're doing religion. You're like, I'm allowed to fuck everyone. Yeah. And you are not. Oh, you know what? If you guys can do it, sure. Good. Yeah. I mean, hey,
Starting point is 00:45:41 God wants this sister wives reality recap. Do you ever watch that? No. Fascinating program. There's been some divorces happening in that film. No way! Yay! Divorces of the Sister Wives family. Divorces, people are leaving, people are leaving.
Starting point is 00:45:56 What do you make of the Sister Wives divorces? What do you make of these sister lives? What do you make of these divorces? On my daughter's wedding day? Make these divorces. Oh, by the way, the offer. Yeah. Can I do some of my offer? Please.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Please. Okay. So this is my good one. Oh. Ready. Hey, ready. What's going on with you today? Ready.

Ready, let me tell you something. Ready. You don't butter up a guy and then you stab him in the back.

Starting point is 00:46:38 Cool Up will be in the other room, just laughing at how crazy it sounds because everyone's doing the most extreme accent they can. Yes, absolutely. So, Robice is there going like, oh, why would you do something like that? You gotta stop this movie. It's making a tyrant look bad. You can't do that.
Starting point is 00:46:54 And then Miles Teller is like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. He has the exact same cadence for every line. Miles Teller is acting in this movie like he won a contest to be in. Yeah, and a contest he won a contest to be Did not want to win yes exactly his wife entered it like fuck this is for her and he's so good in Top Gun
Starting point is 00:47:18 We showed up. Wait is he playing Marlon Brando? No, he's playing the producer of the movie. It's all based story It's based on yeah So he it's so weird cuz he has the exact same cadence for every line says blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, and then you got the other guy going ready Let's go down here with you ready. He's great Matthew good plays Robert Evans Legendary producer and he's having the time of his life. He's having his life English. He is the most fun Yeah, he's you've seen him. He's been in a million thing. He's been in Matthew good. What do you Allen's match point? I remember there was a scene in that movie He's been in Matthew Good. Woody Allen's match point. Was he in it? Yeah. I remember there was a scene in that movie where- The tennis ball going over the net, you know? In the 40 love.
Starting point is 00:47:53 You know, it's like- He, there's a scene in that movie where- It puts the poor leg in the basket. No! The trifecta! Oh yeah, Matthew Good, I know who that is. Matthew Good. Ready, ready.
Starting point is 00:48:06 What's the good, Jonathan Reese? He's been in many things that I've enjoyed. Is that the guy's name? Lee Pierre. Reese Major. Reese Major. Reese Major Minor? Ursa Major?
Starting point is 00:48:13 Ursa Major. Ursula Major. Ursula from Little Murphy? And there's like some scene that's going on that is clearly improvised. There's three people in the scene in a Woody Allen movie. You can just tell by the way they're talking. Yeah. And it's like, you can see, I think he was on major drugs at this point.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Like he was doing heroin, uh, Jonathan. Oh yeah. Yeah. Right. And so he's, he tries to like get in on the tail. They're pretending like he's not there. It's very weird. On the improv? Oh, dude. They're pretending like he's not there. It's very weird. It's very, very weird. Can I say, I just saw a post about the Before Sunrise trilogy, which I love. I still have not seen them. I wanna cover them on the show.
Starting point is 00:48:54 Ready? You gotta watch them. Ready, you gotta watch the Before. Before Sunrise. I saw a post about it. After Sunrise, even better. And now we're going in between Sunrise. It's never been done before.
Starting point is 00:49:04 It's not that. Apparently Richard Lind done before. It's not day, sunlight. Richard Linclair said there was zero percent improv in the movies. Zero percent. I was really surprised because they have a very natural flow. They're good actors. They're great.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Well, they're fantastic actors. It's without a doubt, three of the best movies ever made. Wow. Damn, slam a hand on the table. Would you be on that? She had spoken. Scott Asensine talking about him? Maybe, whenever you do it. Depends on hand on the table. Gee, that's spoken. Scott Eisenstein talking about him?
Starting point is 00:49:26 Maybe, whenever you do it. Depends on when you do it. Whenever you have a free moment. Then okay. I only wanna do the first one. Okay, that's fine. Good boundaries, good boundaries. We'll talk about that another time.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Great, one more do your part. Ruddy. Uh-huh. I just cannot watch that your part. Ruddy. Uh huh. I just cannot watch that show without saying Ruddy. Over and over again. I love him so much. He's really funny in it, but it's the craziest accent show I've seen in so long.
Starting point is 00:49:53 And Cool Up will just be howling with laughter, listening to, and she can't even pick out what they're saying, but she's just like, these accents, what are they doing? I want to see a little bit just to know. It's really good. Have you ever done an accent in anything? I have. What'd they doing? I want to see a little bit just to know. It's really good. Have you ever done an accent in anything? I have.
Starting point is 00:50:08 What'd you do? Holmes and Watson? No, I didn't speak in that film except for but a line at the end when I was American. That was the one good part of it. I know, poor God. Somebody doesn't speak in a movie, you gotta have them talk at the very end.
Starting point is 00:50:20 I did speak at the end and so I was just kidding. Let me think. Fuck face. I definitely have something with an accent coming out. Oh wow. Wow. And then it was Balegda. Balegda the movie?
Starting point is 00:50:36 Yeah, the biopic. If there was a biopic about that person, I don't even know who it is. Balegda. Balegda. And they called it Balegda. Well who it is. Baleigda. Baleigda. And they called it Baleigda. Well, if it called it Baleigda, I'm all in. Yeah, but it's like calling the Tina Turner biopic.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Malignant Baleigda. What if they came to you and they said, look, Lauren, we have an offer for you. We are not gonna tell you how much it is. We're not gonna tell you the extent of your role. We're not gonna tell you where it shoots. What we can tell you is this movie is called Baleigda. Here's what I would. I mean, okay, I can't probably say who's making it.
Starting point is 00:51:09 You have to at least tell me how much I'm making. Like there has to be some reason to want to do it. I can give you a rain for the art. Well, if I just know that's called Baleigda, but I have no other information from one dollar to 80 million. It's not one dollar scale to three million dollars. OK. And then the question I have is, am I the one saying balegda? Ah. Interesting, would you do it as long as you didn't
Starting point is 00:51:33 have to say balegda, or would that be additive? In theory, I would want to be the one saying balegda, but in practice, I think it'd be better if I wasn't, because I'm sure it'd be ripped to shreds. Here's what I'm gonna tell you. Ripped to shreds. That's what I'm gonna tell you Here's what I could tell you everyone in the movie Says it at one point, but only one character will say it in the final cut. Oh
Starting point is 00:52:03 So it's like whoever's the best. Yeah, it's a bake-off. It's a balik duff. Baliked off. Okay fine, I'll do it. We've somehow. Yes! We've fashioned the script. Yeah, we've fashioned the script somehow so that everyone gets to say this line. On their least important lines. And it makes sense. But.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Yeah. So that we can cut all of the ones. Yes. I love that. And we'll only keep one. Everyone says this same line in their dialogue. Never in the same scene. I think that's great. Do you ever have a house that you made up in your mind
Starting point is 00:52:27 that you pictured in a book that you read that you remember? Well, I do, I do in my dreams. A house that I made up in my mind. I know you do that. That I pictured in a book that I read. Okay, for example, right now I just was thinking about this house. Are you asking me if I've written a book?
Starting point is 00:52:38 Well, I was just thinking about this house that I made up when I was reading a book and I made up what the house looked like. Whose house? And I was just thinking about the house just now, randomly popped into my head. I don't know why. But-
Starting point is 00:52:50 What book was it? The book was called Nothing to See Here, and it's actually a fantastic book. I zipped right through it. I don't even want to tell you what it's about because there's a twist. And I didn't read the summary on the flap, and I was so happy I didn't
Starting point is 00:53:02 because I didn't know what was gonna happen. I bet the twist is there was something to see. Yeah. There was something to see, and it doesn't, they write it on the summary on the flap. And I was so happy I didn't because I didn't know what was gonna happen. I bet the twist is there was something to see. There was something to see and they write it on the fucking book, which I thought was kind of crazy because it's a fun twist. Yeah. And it's more exciting. But anyway, I just picture,
Starting point is 00:53:14 I made up this like beautiful mansion with this like pool that they describe in the book. And I just pictured it in my mind and I don't know why, you know, when things just pop in your mind, it was almost like a memory, but it's not a memory that I thought. That is a fun question. If you ever walked into a house that looked exactly like that, would you be like, holy
Starting point is 00:53:29 shit, this is the place? Yeah. And then what would you do? I'd start screaming and breaking everything. I remember when I was a kid, a series of books that were sort of Narnia-like, but it was these kids ended up in this world that was like, basically like a chess board, you know? Like-
Starting point is 00:53:50 Oh, I sort of remember this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And- Chess for dummies, right? Yeah. That's a great story. One of the characters was real dumb. And the, it was the person reading it?
Starting point is 00:53:59 No, I kind of remember this. Chess for dummies, they opened it up, and there was like a mirror page, and it said, you're the dummy. Yeah. All the dummies books have that. And I really love, I love the books. I don't remember. I don't remember a ton of details about them.
Starting point is 00:54:12 See if it does. What? And then they'll be the real dummy. What? And then someone can open one of those dummies books to see if there is a mirror because they don't know because they never opened one. Yeah. And then they turn the page.
Starting point is 00:54:23 Here's the real mirror. And then you actually. Here I am. Oh, and by the way, Post Malone, did you see that cover I posted of him singing Better Man? No, I did not. I saw I saw that you posted that. I saw what the song was and I was like, I don't like the original. Oh, I love that song. OK.
Starting point is 00:54:37 But I loved his kids. I never heard him sing. I was like, what's going on? I was so surprised by his sound. Good. Yeah, I loved it. I like Post Malone. And he was great. He also did some Nirvana cover. We went on like a spree watching YouTube videos. I like his, what were they, Sprite commercials?
Starting point is 00:54:52 I thought he was funny. I don't know, I don't think I've seen that. Do you know what? If you look closely at the tattoos on his face, they're terms and conditions. Yeah, and then if you turn it inside out- And if you look at his butt, it says may apply. It's a map to treasure. Oh, wow. Ew, if you look at it inside out, it says may apply. It's a map to treasure.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Oh wow. If you look at it inside out, and you peel, that's what I thought you meant. Yeah. Don't do that to my dear friend, post Malone. But I feel like I can see, there was like a castle in that series of books
Starting point is 00:55:18 that I feel like I can still see, even though I remember no details about the book. Yeah, it's weird. It's like a memory that you made up. The mind is very funny, isn't it? Isn't it just an interesting little thing with all the lines and wrinkles. A little too funny.
Starting point is 00:55:32 A little too rough. Yeah. Don't find a better man. Save it for later. Do do do do do do. So do you know like Pearl Jam at all? Is that Pearl Jam? I mean, I know Jeremy Spokker.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Another great one. You know why I like them? Because they tell stories with the songs. Yeah, like Harry Chapin. They'll pause the song in the middle and just tell a story. A bedtime story. And then everyone goes to sleep in their concert. Let's take a break.
Starting point is 00:55:53 That was good. Once upon a time. You should do a cover of your next show. They were one of the last. That would be fucking rad. Do you think people will lose their shit? Yeah. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:56:01 It's a good one. I think it's a good one. I think it's a good one. I think it's a good one. I think it's a good one. I think it's a good one. I think it's a good one. I think it's a a break. That was good. Once upon a time. You should do a cover of your next show. They were one of the last. That would be fucking rad. Do you think people will lose their shit? Yeah. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:56:09 If you sang a Pearl Jam song at your next show, people would love that. They would be like, wah wah wah wah, and rubbing their eyes and going like, am I watching Pearl Jam? You know what? Has Pearl Jam started to suck? Mike likes, and I watching Pearl Jam? You know what? There's another one. Pearl Jam started to suck.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Mike likes and I think it's I think it's audio slave. There's a song, I think it's audio slave and it goes like to be yourself is all you ever know. Do you know what I'm talking about? No. That sounds familiar. And I was so surprised by the song
Starting point is 00:56:44 because I thought it would be a good song. Because you're against slavery. No, I thought it'd be like what you just did, like hardcore music. Oh, you're like, what you just did. I know which one you're talking about. It was like a self-esteem song. And the audience, we were watching this old 90s concert
Starting point is 00:56:56 and the audience was like crying, singing, or whatever. The audience was in their 90s. It was an old video online of the concert. And the audience was like crying at the song. And I was like, he's singing about like self-esteem and like being yourself. And it's just like so surprising. Cause when I hear the name, like that type of Metallica.
Starting point is 00:57:16 I'm not thinking I'm going to get something like that. Audio Slave showed me it was cool to be weird. Don, no, I don't mean to say. I'm trying to find the. What did you just? Don, no, I mean to say. I'm trying to find the what did you just? I'm trying to find the song What's it called be yourself by audio so be yourself here we go the full title is be yourself by audio slave
Starting point is 00:57:45 Yeah, it was a 2005 song so I was wrong with one. I said the concert. Oh shit, he's got the aux cord. That's why they call him Scotty Aux. That's why they do that. Here we go. Be yourself. This is Be Yourself by Audioslave. Hmm, I'm not hearing it. Oh, there it is. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Hey, Audioslave fans. As Juneteenth approaches, we'd like to remember. You observe it on a Monday this month. Someone falls to pieces. Who? Well, you have to play the Chloris. Nope. That is so fucking rude.
Starting point is 00:58:20 To who? The listener and me. And me. Paul doesn't know it. I don? The listener and me. And me. Oh. Paul doesn't know it. I don't know it, now I never will. We're just gonna sit here and listen to it. Fast forward to the good part.
Starting point is 00:58:29 All right, all right, here we go. You want me to fast forward? Yeah, I don't care, play the chorus. All right, here we go, ready? This is how I felt when we were talking about songs that make us cry. Yeah. And then my song, it was more of a build.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Yeah, slumber. We just listened to the very first part of it. It's not fair. I seem like I have a mental problem. It's not fair. There, rewind a little bit. ["Kick It"] Here we go. Kick it!
Starting point is 00:59:02 I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Teach them everything that resides inside. Give them a sense of pride to make it easier. Let the children's laughter. I'm using like all of my brain. And let them lead the way. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Yeah. Anyway. Anyway. I was surprised to say the least and Post Malone surprised me as well. You wanna hear a little bit of that? Sure, I do. You want me to hand you this?
Starting point is 00:59:50 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here you go. Boop, boop, boop, boop. Throw me the dongle. Throw me the dongle. Throw me the dongle. Throw me the dongle. Give it a real swing.
Starting point is 01:00:01 I can't, he's doing it on purpose. Here you go. Eventually I figured that out. I knew you were going to do it. I love it. It is great. Oh Jesus. Freaking funny, dude.
Starting point is 01:00:18 Do you know what? I think that is funnier than the when somebody reaches for the car door handle you pull up. That is funny. I hate that one.nier than the, when somebody reaches for the car door handle, you pull up. Oh yeah. That is funny. I hate that one. But I like that my brother drove over my phone. Oh dear. I like it.
Starting point is 01:00:31 What happened? Oh no, my wifi's bad. My wifi. Oh no, my wifi's bad? Oh my God, fucking hell. It's okay, honey. Is it, hey, is it eight o'clock at night, guys? Cause that's how it feels. Is it time for bed?

I'll send you a dm Oh slide in there, baby I can play it play it. I can play it. I can play it Come on and rock me on my blade. All right, we gotta take a break. Goodbye Come on and wreck me on my blade. All right, we gotta take a break. Goodbye. Hey, I'm Reshma Sajjani, founder of Girls Who Code and Mom's First.
Starting point is 01:01:13 I consider myself a pretty successful adult woman. So why is it that in midlife, as I'm about to turn 50, I feel so stuck? Join me as I try to find the answer on My So-Called Midlife from Lemonada Media. I talk to experts and extraordinary guests about divorce, exercise, menopause, sex, drugs, and more to understand what we're going through and how to make the most of it. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 01:01:38 I'm Hasan Minhaj and I have been lying to you. I only pretended to be a comedian so I could trick important people into coming on my podcast, Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know, to ask them the tough questions that real journalists are way too afraid to ask. People like Senator Elizabeth Warren.
Starting point is 01:01:53 Is America too dumb for democracy? Outrageous. Parenting expert Dr. Becky. How do you skip consequences without raising a psychopath? That's a good question. Listen to Hasan Minhaj Doesn't know from Lemonada Media, wherever you get your podcasts. Don't call me, we're back.
Starting point is 01:02:16 And don't call me daughter ever. Don't call me daughter. Guess what? It's time for- My pronouns are brother, father. Don't call me daughter. Guess what? It's time for- My pronouns are brother, father. Don't call me daughter. Don't call me daughter. Can I say something?
Starting point is 01:02:31 You know, like the- Please. The dumb- We want you to say things. This is one third your show. The dumb- I would love it if you would say stuff, just so I wouldn't have to say less.
Starting point is 01:02:38 Yeah. Really? I really want to say less and not interrupt you all the time, but you're not saying anything. Is this true? Matt, a quick shout out to a podcast that I've recently started listening to.
Starting point is 01:02:49 WTF. I'm devouring, yeah, this guy. This guy? What the fuck is going on with him? Podcast called Three Bean Salad, which is three- Three Bean! Sounds like they're ripping off of us.
Starting point is 01:03:00 Well, here's the thing. There are three British comedians and they have a topic that they discuss each week. Yeah, it's unsimilar. What's funny is they're like a version of us where they listen to each other. No, they don't. And they support each other.
Starting point is 01:03:15 No way. No, we support various people at certain times during this show. Wait, what's the podcast? Alliances are formed. That you recommended to me that my celebrity crush, Donald Gleason, was on. Oh, he's the podcast? Alliances are formed. That you recommended to me that my celebrity crush, Donald Gleason, was on.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Oh, he was on it? Yeah, you sent it to me. It was like a show where they talked about food. Oh, off menu? Yeah. Yes. I liked it a lot. Yes. It was really interesting.
Starting point is 01:03:38 Also hosted by two very funny British comedians, James A. Castor. We get it, you're an Anglophile. Well, maybe I am. Why don't you just move overseas? Do you think I am? Do you think I am an Anglophile? There's this phenomenon that children start to speak
Starting point is 01:03:52 with a British accent if they watch a lot of Peppa Pig. I've heard! Watch a lot of what? Peppa Pig, it's like a British cartoon, and they get addicted to it, and then they start speaking, because that's how they're learning how to speak. It's interesting, because I used to watch a lot of PBS
Starting point is 01:04:04 as a kid, because my parents used to watch a lot of PBS as a kid because my parents used to watch a ton of PBS. Oh yeah, PBS. Pibbous, pig. But so I would watch a lot of like upstairs, downstairs and various English stuff. And so I grew up like kind of really able to do like English accents because of that.
Starting point is 01:04:19 And then I lost it all. But I feel the same way. Yeah, but it was really instructional when I was a kid, just constantly like learning how everyone in the world talked and being able to imitate it. I sometimes wonder if I were able to do a scripted thing in an accent, would I be better at it than when I'm doing improv?
Starting point is 01:04:37 I was better at it in scripted because I had to do it for Christmas Carol. You can memorize how the word is. You can say it more than once. And you literally can do like the vowel substitutions in your script and stuff like that. Cause they have different vowels. Yeah, everywhere.
Starting point is 01:04:49 All the consonants though, sometimes they swap them. Sometimes. The V instead of TH. That's right, bro. So, do you have a three-cher? Have you, have I got a three-cher? Have you a three-cher, daddy? Disgusting.
Starting point is 01:05:06 Daddy's going to bring us. Daddy's bringing us a three-cher. Daddy's going to bring us violet crumble. I made my notes in a different color so I could find it easy. Smart, smart call. You're so smart. And yet you're still not saying it.
Starting point is 01:05:20 Clever girl. She's a very clever girl. She's a very clever girl. She's a very clever girl. The kind that is a dinosaur. A dinosaur, dinosaur. The kind that is a velociraptor. That girl's a dinosaur. Oh.
Starting point is 01:05:37 Can I just say I'm in Ben Lee's new music video and the music video is great and so is the song. And it's called Parents Get High if you want to watch it. Are you telling us? No, I'm telling the audience. I've seen little promos for it the song and it's called Parents Get High if you want to watch it. Are you telling us? No, I'm telling the audience. I've seen little promos for it. Yeah, it's a film on. I think I've seen an advert for that.
Starting point is 01:05:53 You've seen an advert. All right. On the two. All right, Pepper Pig. That'll do, Pepper Pig. All right, now. That'll do. Do you remember this guy, KP? Oh, God. Oh my.
Starting point is 01:06:04 He is like. enough with this guy. He's our worst enemy. He's not only our worst enemy, he's our biggest threat. He's our biggest fan and our worst enemy. Biggest threat. I said fan. Oh, okay, I said threat. He submitted this.
Starting point is 01:06:18 No, I said fan. Oh, my God. The fuck are you guys talking about? We're having one of our patented disagreements over here. Very, very American indeed. One of your patented disagreements. Very, very American. One of your patented Oswalt's. He this guy, KP, he submitted this three church and patrol. It was not a home is kitchen.
Starting point is 01:06:32 We all know him as Kitchen Patrol. He's appealing spuds. He's like Paw Patrol. But if it was a kitchen instead. Yeah. Oh, now I get it. Yeah. Like if a blender had a hat on. Oh, now I get it. Your hat on if you're a blender.
Starting point is 01:06:46 So he submitted this feature called Press Junkin. We were like, there's a lot of problems with this. Yeah, we had notes, let's just say. We had a lot of notes, and we said, work on this, and resubmit it. And write into the mic. Yeah. It was funny because you turned away from it
Starting point is 01:07:02 until the audible part. Yeah, you're right. There was a panelist, a best week ever panelist before the hosted version that killed it the first time, who yawned during a take and like didn't stop. Didn't say, I'm sorry, let me do this, but just yawned through as if that was gonna make it to air. And it's like, this is a television show. There was a-
Starting point is 01:07:23 I'll just tell you, this person posted online, y'all I just met Zendaya, but I didn't have a pen or paper, so she signed my notes app, and she just typed Zendaya into this person's phone. That's funny. Oh yeah, she did it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:36 Oh, the same thing is about to happen to me as soon as we stop recording. Oh, she just did it on my phone. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:07:48 You can head on. Uh, okay. So KP submits the- So KP just- submits press- Total, total waste of space. Well, listen- I wouldn't go that far.
Starting point is 01:07:56 I think we saw the potential in him. He was not- He did. He was a little cocky out of the gate. It was like, no, KP, this needs work. Go back to the drawing board. Yeah, go back. Get back there.
Starting point is 01:08:04 The guy ghosts us. Get back. He ghost to the drawing board. Get back there. Guy ghosts us. Get back. He ghosted us for weeks. Get back. Yeah. Peter Jack. To the drawing board, KP. And so then he comes back.
Starting point is 01:08:15 Because one of our notes was, what's the big prize? Because he said there was a big prize that you win. Yeah. Then he gets back to his finally last week. All right, here's his initial submission. Uh, one person is a movie star doing a press junket for a made up movie. One person is an interviewer from a random local news station and the other person is the star's handler trying to keep the interview on track.
Starting point is 01:08:36 All right. I actually think it's a good game. Well, no, we didn't. It needed something more because it wasn't necessarily a game. Oh, for sure. You know what I mean? Yeah. And so then he comes back. What's the difference between a game and a three-turn? Oh, we can't go down this hole. Shhh, shh, sh? And you never will. Yeah. Hear me God. Kevin, by the way, had to learn sign language in order to communicate with us because we don't want him on mic.
Starting point is 01:09:09 Yes. So, and you're doing a good job and you did it just by watching Coda. Stop saying I love you. So you know anything they said in Coda and that's it. I love the movie Coda. He just knows the dialogue from the movie, the script from the movie Coda.
Starting point is 01:09:21 Coda, that's all, and he has to work every conversation into that. He wants to be a singer, I guess. He's got to go out on the boat tonight. Timer is set for three minutes. One player is in a loop, Hollywood bad boy or girl, doing a press junket for their new movie. One player is their stressed out publicist,
Starting point is 01:09:36 and the third is an entertainment reporter. The actor has a silly rumor going around about them, example, tried to grow weed. There are Zs growing out of my eyeballs right now. Hey, man. Yeah, the Z's are flowing, dude. The rumors decided ahead of time by the reporter is only knows it and is only known by the publicist and reporter.
Starting point is 01:09:53 Rumor has it the reporter is slyly trying to get the scoop from the actor, but the hubbublicist is trying to. Hubbublicist. You knew you were going to be up there. Sometimes, honestly, that's a good description of their job. Hubbublicist. job. Habublises. Habublises. Habublises. The habublises.
Starting point is 01:10:08 I almost shut down when that came out of my mouth. I was almost like, I'm done. So you almost had to just walk home. I'm done for my career. You have not even drive home. Walk home. Well, I said habublises. Got to walk home.
Starting point is 01:10:18 Honey, could you get an Uber and get my car? I can't go back there. Have the Uber driver drive my car and you drive the Uber driver. Uber, you can drive my car. I can drive your car. I can drive your car. I can drive your car. Uber, you can drive my car. I can drive walk home. Honey, could you get an Uber and get my car? I can't go back there. Have the Uber driver drive my car
Starting point is 01:10:27 and you drive the Uber driver. Uber, you can drive my car. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. Five stars, five stars, yeah! Wait, Uber's driving your car. Okay, look, Weird Al, you'd normally love your work. Yeah, I am. But first of all, first of all.
Starting point is 01:10:42 Why is this person that's giving him notes all the time? We gotta talk about Uber you can drive my car. The reporter is trying to get the scoop from the actor, but the publicist is trying to stop them and keep the interview about the movie. The person playing the actor improvises the title, their character, and all the other details of the movie. If the interviewer can slightly get the actor to say the rumor within the three minutes, they win the big prize. Okay, that's it. That was original? That was the original. the three minutes. They win the big prize. Okay. That's it. That was original? That was the original. And we said, what's the big prize?
Starting point is 01:11:09 And he like got all sassy. Got a little squirreling about the prize, of course, because it simply wasn't one. I've suggested some modifications. Okay. So you've taken over KP's job, in other words. Let's hear it. If he's not gonna step up to the plate,
Starting point is 01:11:24 you're gonna pinch hit. words. Let's hear it. If he's not gonna step up to the plate, you're gonna pinch hit. Okay. There's two rumors. What? The reporter comes up with a rumor. No. And the publicist comes up with a rumor. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Both are told to the actor. What? So the reporter and the publicist are thinking it's two different rumors. And the reporter's trying to get the information about one of them, but the publicist is trying to stop the other one. Yes. Trying to stop both. Yes. So the, I think, yes, trying to, we'll start trying to stop both. Really what you're trying to do is figure out what's going on. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:56 And so the actor has all the knowledge and is missing, you know, obviously it's trying to keep the other two from knowing what the secrets are. Let's do it. So you have to guess your own, what your, the secret that you're trying to stop if you're the publicist, you have to guess what that secret is. This is like the opposite of KP, this is PK. This is so good, let's do this.
Starting point is 01:12:17 Okay, so- Pretty kick ass? Yeah. Let's just explain it as we assign tasks and explain it again. Yeah, who are, tell us who we are. Well, is there someone who would like to hold all the cards? Who feels good about that?
Starting point is 01:12:30 I think, I think Scott does. Okay, I'll hold all the cards. You will be the actor. I'll be the actor, yeah. Speak the speech, I pray you. As it comes trippingly off the tongue. Oh God. Are you tripping like Fandango?
Starting point is 01:12:44 Oh. Are you tripping like Fandango? Are you tripping the light fandango? Great reaction to Shakespeare. Oh god. Oh god. This guy again. That guy, the bard, yeah. Oh yeah. I've heard of him. Bard these nuts. Yeah, I'm a little over the source material.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Bard these nuts. Alright, let's go. Is this episode ever going to end? No, because I wish it would. We're going long over time and we have another one to do, my friends. All right. Which you know everyone will hate to hear. I think the second one's always the better one.
Starting point is 01:13:11 Everyone always hates the second one. I know, they like it more cause they're loopier. People like the even numbered ones and not the odd numbered ones. That is how it breaks out. Although we only did one in Las Vegas, so now we're broken the cycle. We've broken the cycle.
Starting point is 01:13:24 Okay, what's up? Hey, true believers, we've broken the cycle. We weren't all in Las Vegas. so now we're broken the cycle. We've broken the cycle. Okay, what's up? Hey, true believers, we've broken the cycle. We've worked all day in Las Vegas. Excel, Seymour. I saw Stan Lee with the, nevermind. Candelabra in the? With Santa Claus last night? Yes.
Starting point is 01:13:36 Yes. Stan Lee has taken over half of Santa Claus' duties. Let's hear the rules as you expect. I'm wrapping all the gifts on Christmas Eve. You'll be delivered at no price. Okay. I'm extremely familiar with his work. You're the publicist.
Starting point is 01:13:54 Thank you. But direct all questions to Newcombe. Lauren, you're the publicist. Scott, you're the actor? I'm the publicist. You're the publicist. And me? You're the hubbubbler.

Starting point is 01:14:20 Yeah, that's what I thought. Or we're already lost. Oh, so you text him a rumor. Yeah, Steve. I text him a rumor. You know both rumors. And then how do they get out? We're already lost. Oh, so you text him a rumor, I text him a rumor, you know both rumors. And then how do they get out? We're trying to draw it out.
Starting point is 01:14:29 But he already knows? Am I trying to not save him? But you know one of them. No, but I think what would be more sensitive if we are saying things that get him to go, did I fuck a guinea pig? You know what I mean? Like, that's the usual way we do it.
Starting point is 01:14:41 Let's try Paul's way. You know one of the secrets. You're trying to draw out. Lauren, if you go to Jersey Mike's, are you not gonna have it Mike's way? No, you're always gonna have it. If we're doing Paul's game, we do it Paul's way. There's always Mike's way.
Starting point is 01:14:53 Yeah. Crunch. Oil, vinegar, salt, pepper. Did you say crunch? I said crunch. Oh, but man, what if Jersey Mike was really in the grunge? Don't call me Jersey. You gotta do cover of that. You got to do cover of that.

I was looking at the wrong people Well, you have your Ray-Bans on so we couldn't even tell oh, I'm so sorry I didn't realize No, no, no, no Cuz you're wearing a black suit and you have an alien cradled in your arms. I know I'm wearing a black suit I know I'm wearing sunglasses. I know I have an alien cradle in my arms, but there's a logical explanation for all of this. I just don't have the time to get into it. I understand we only have 50 minutes today.
Starting point is 01:17:28 Yeah, it's actually, we're on a bit of a time crunch. She's gotta eat four lunches, so we're going down to three minutes. Did she say is to eat four lunches? Yeah. Okay, that's interesting. I have four stomachs like a cow. We're going down to three minutes. So what publication are you with?

Starting point is 01:18:03 I played the Holy Spirit. It's never been done before on screen. It's the first, and people thought- Because people have played God, people have played, a lot of people have played Jesus. Yeah. So it's funny, Brenda, that you mention that you have to eat four lunches
Starting point is 01:18:15 because I understand you, forgive me if this is impolite, but you're kind of a hungry boy, aren't you? I don't think that's ever been said to me. Well, he certainly, he certainly has an, You're kind of a hungry boy, aren't you? I don't think that's ever been said to me. He certainly has an insatiable thirst for new innovations. New innovations. Yeah. Really? Because you seem like a very traditional kind of guy. But what are these new innovations?
Starting point is 01:18:40 Well, you know, just contraptions and things, you know, contraptions. Yeah. Hmm. Such as? Hmm. You know, electric stirring sticks, stuff like that. Electric stirring sticks? Yeah. Who has, who has the risk strength? This will be great for your interview. Keep going on this. These days. You know what I mean? Keep going on this? Yeah. You don't want to talk about the Four Legends?
Starting point is 01:19:02 Ask him more about the sticks and things. So you want me to know about the sticks? Isn't that what I want? Well, we don't know what you want because you've never made it clear. This is not. I thought I'm trying to get him to say the thing that I texted him.
Starting point is 01:19:19 No, I'm trying to figure out the thing that you texted him. You're trying to figure out the thing that I texted him. Okay, okay, here we go. I mean, yeah, I am hungry a lot of times. Yes, I am a hungry boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Especially right now. I think more people know that recently than did before.
Starting point is 01:19:37 I'm sorry, did you, Glym, did you eat something that you shouldn't have eaten? I don't think that it's illegal to eat that. Who's doing the interview here? What, do you illegal to eat that. Who's doing the interview here? What, do you eat like a bat? Who's doing the interview here? That would be illegal. I don't think it's illegal.
Starting point is 01:19:48 Let me ask the question. Let me ask the question. That's why Ozzy Osbourne is in jail right now. Okay, well I thought it was because he was gross. Fighting for his life. Did you eat something like a tongue or something? No, I don't talk to them. Hey, we don't have to talk about that.
Starting point is 01:20:02 Let's talk about the movie. Now everybody's in this. It seems like- Oh, it's a star-studded affair. It seems like the- We've got Jennifer Aniston. Well, I'm not gonna- We've got Jennifer Connelly. I was gonna make a comparison, but-
Starting point is 01:20:13 Oh, please. I don't think anyone with, I think all the stars have my favorite initials, though, in them. Really? Yeah, so Quentin is in it. Q. Yeah, and Coraline from the movie Coraline is in it.
Starting point is 01:20:29 C? Yeah. Vince Vaughn. Vince Vaughn is definitely in it, yeah. VV, sure. Yeah, or V, yeah. I mean, yeah, anyway. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:38 Q, C, V. Yeah. That's the way it was delivered. I mean, God, when I hear those initials. Hold on a second. Excuse me, yeah. QVC? What about it?
Starting point is 01:20:54 God. Is this movie, why are you so sleepy? I don't know, when I hear those initials, it just triggers something in me. God. It triggers like a sort of narcoleptic reaction? Sort of, yeah, triggers something in me. Ugh, God. It triggers like a sort of narcoleptic reaction? Sort of, yeah, it seems like it. Just getting tired.
Starting point is 01:21:09 Yeah, we may have to wrap this up if you keep saying those things. From what you said. Do you have some sort of condition, perhaps? Um, hmm. Let me check to see what condition my condition is in. I mean, it's definitely something that I can't. Sort of an unhealthy habit.
Starting point is 01:21:25 It's something I need to do. Yeah. Is this something you're comfortable with us talking about, Brenda? I am comfortable. I mean, it's a rumor, but I think we could squash it right now. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 01:21:34 So what people are saying is that you fall asleep watching QVC. That I can't. You can't sleep unless you watch Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. And then what I heard is that you ate a guinea pig's butthole. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. It's not legal.
Starting point is 01:21:55 It's not illegal. It tastes good doing it. It's not illegal. It's like a little Frito like. Why would he like that? Oh, excuse me. I have to burp. Uh, Ralph's cleaning to one, two, four, three, six, nine, every time you throw up, you recite the film book. Sorry. Just what I ate is coming back up. Oh, Ralph's cleaning. So you cleaning, so you ate like a cleaning solution. Are you sure? Mm, shaky's pizza.
Starting point is 01:22:29 Are you sure it's okay? You eat menus. Is it okay to talk about this in front of her? I mean, are you willing to go over the record with this? I'm not talking in front of her, I just can't control my burping because I had such a big lunch. So recently on set,
Starting point is 01:22:42 a lot of people discovered something about you and maybe you didn't want them to know about this, but unfortunately, you were the one who inadvertently let them know. Well, it's one- You burp out. It's one of those things where, you know, the sound person should have been making sure this didn't happen.
Starting point is 01:22:58 Obviously you wanna trust them, but you can't always, can you? Can't always, so I should double check these things, yeah. But, oh God, excuse me. Can always, so I should double check these things, yeah. But, oh God, excuse me. Ernie's plumbing, 816-932-587. So you have like Tourette's, but it's the phone book. What?
Starting point is 01:23:14 Forget it. Look, I should have. It didn't work, it didn't work. Well, tell me what it was. It was that I left my mic on while eating a phone book in my trailer. I said you ate the phone book. No.
Starting point is 01:23:27 I said you're burping up the phone book. You said you're burping up the phone book. You said you're burping up the phone book. Well, it implies that you ate it. No. We're not playing implied here. We're playing a faulty game. Let's just say the game didn't work.
Starting point is 01:23:38 So who wore it best, PFT or KP? That was my fault. I'll take full responsibility. You're gonna take the blame for this? There's something about the games and me. It doesn't work. It just doesn't work. You know, I find games to be tricky little things, but we'll get it next time. We'll get it next time. Hey, we'll get it next time. Good game. Good game. Good game.
Starting point is 01:23:57 Good game. Good game. Good game. Good game. You know, it's really funny is in professional baseball games, the teams do that themselves. Do they really? Yes, after a professional baseball game, you will see the teams line up separately and they'll go to online saying good game to each other. I was watching the challenge the other day. But not to the other team.
Starting point is 01:24:14 Oh. Which is the whole idea. I was watching the challenge the other day and someone who got eliminated smacked the, his competitor in the butt. And I was like, when did that start? Like what the first guy to do that must have been so scared to be like.
Starting point is 01:24:27 It all comes down to the second guy's accepting of it. Yeah, well, that's what I mean is the first guy must have been like, I really want to touch this guy's butt, but I need an excuse. What if I'm congratulating them on the game? Well, see, I think it's that. Because then it's inexorably tied into sports. I think you're making it something sinister.
Starting point is 01:24:43 Lauren's so bored. And I think it was that. I just think we gotta move something sinister. Lauren's so bored. And I think it was that. I just think we gotta move it along. She's reaching into her purse for her phone. Okay, we'll get that. For my sack. Oh my God, she's got a taser, no! Oh my God, no, no!
Starting point is 01:24:52 We'll see you next time! Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye!
