It's a daily micro habit that supports whole body health in one scoop. In fact, it's a way of life. Let me take you through a typical day for me, right? Okay, so I'm waking up, smashing my agey one, right?
Starting point is 00:00:31 And then it is go time, baby, done with groggy afternoons now that it's getting darker earlier, trying to trick my brain into going asleep every five minutes. No, superfoods and B vitamins support steady energy without the crash. And no matter how hard the holiday diet hits, you know, I'm staying as finally tuned as a luxury timepiece, prebiotics, probiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, midbiotics, if it's biotic, I'm taking it. They help support regularity and gut resilience. If you care about wellness and, well, Ness, you should, if your name is Ness, like Elliot Ness. You'll just like, what's that Tupac song?

Starting point is 00:02:33 It's good for me. And it could be a moan of pleasure or it could be a moat of pain. Either is good for me. As Hellraiser teaches us, they're such a fine line. Wow, because he likes those pins in his face. Because he likes those pins in his face. Ah, you have all those pins in your face, don't you, governor? You're acting a right pinhead, mate.

Starting point is 00:03:00 I'm a coward I'm scared I'm too scared I'm too scared of this welcome to freedom I'm Paul F Thompson I'm Lauren Flapp Lappson
Starting point is 00:03:08 I'm Scott plopper Scott plopper Plopper Wow Welcome to the show Oh Minnie the mooch and so I couldn't hear
Starting point is 00:03:21 what you were saying. Don't ever say that again. Don't you hear the words coming out of his mouth? I'm confused. Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth? Many of the moocher is one of Mike's ringtones. Why? Why? I don't know, but I hear it all the freaking time. Also, what made you, what made you say? Because I was singing Minnie the mooture. Why were you doing? I'm the guy you don't pay attention to do cool. Oh, it's you. Yep, you're just focused on her. Oh, we're doing freedom. Okay, now I remember. He's the problem. It's him. So he loves Minnie the moocher.
Starting point is 00:03:51 He does. Is it a ringtone for a specific person? Is it about Mimichia? Or is it everyone? It's a ringtone. It's like a text tone. It's a ringtone.
Starting point is 00:04:01 I don't even know who it's for. He just loves it. Yeah. I mean, usually the phone sound is off, but when it's on, I certainly hear it. Do you think he's texting himself so you can hear it? He definitely does that a lot.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Why do you listen to the song? He doesn't have a Spotify account? Do you ever use that? Do you ever use that approach of texting yourself things? I don't do that. I've done that. I've done that. I've done it.
Starting point is 00:04:21 I've done it like for like a picture I want to have or something. But I've never do it for like, remember to do this. I don't do it for that. I started using the reminders app. Really? There's a reminder's app? I use that app a lot. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:34 It's actually very, actually, actually helpful. It comes with the iPhone and it's actually amazing. So it's a sanctioned like iPhone app? It's sanctioned. It's been blessed. By the Holy Father. Yes. On nobody's listening right, Elizabeth Lames's podcast with her husband, Andy,
Starting point is 00:04:49 which I listen to. Psychic Andy. And I love. of it. It's like a candy. Andy was talking about a to-do list app that is supposed to be really great for help. He has ADD. And so it's supposed to help keep you on track with certain things.
Starting point is 00:05:01 And the second you think of something, you put it in the, I don't know why the app is better than just making a list. But maybe it has reminders. Yeah, exactly. Because I make a list and then I don't look at it. That's true. I don't want to look at my list. What did you put in your list?
Starting point is 00:05:14 I made a checklist of things that I have, I had a show last night with Amy Mann and Ted Leo and thank you congratulations Paul that's so amazing thank you that's so great Paul yeah thank you so that's all you wanted to say yeah goodbye finally this was just a pretext um I made a checklist of things that I needed to bring with me oh and then guess what I didn't look at that list and I got in the car and I was about to pull away and I was like I remembered one of the things because I was I got cocky and I was like I remembered all the things I got all this yeah you can't you can't do that No, but it's like, what's the, why did I make that list if I wasn't going to look at it for exactly that reason? It's like right before you leave the house, look at that list.
Starting point is 00:05:57 The list used to be so important when you, like all the years that we were putting on like shows at the HBO workspace and all that kind of stuff. Yeah. Making the list of every prop you had to have and every single thing. It was so important. I remember a particular performance where someone I was performing with did not bring a huge thing on the list. And it was just like, this is why we make. the list. Drag them.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Drag them. This is why we make it. Drag them to fill through. So the M&Ms are no more. Oh, I knew we'd get to it. Well, we have to mention it because we didn't know that, obviously, when we were recording that hadn't happened yet. The Eminem Corp was having a meeting debating while we were having our company.
Starting point is 00:06:42 You were limbo during that. This is all fake, by the way. I think this is for the Super Bowl. It's not real. Scott, don't say that. I'm so sorry. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait, is it, am I dumb?
Starting point is 00:06:52 Is it fake? You're dumb. I legit thought it was real. Which part do you think was real? That they got rid of the characters. Oh, no. This is all a Super Bowl, meet up to a Super Bowl. No, what on earth?
Starting point is 00:07:05 So wait, hold on. No, and please audience know that I do have brain cells and I do use them regularly. But when I'm scrolling through Instagram, I just kind of take it, you know, and I just let it wash over me and I just move on. Why would you think about it for more than two seconds? And I was like, oh, they're done with the mascots. Yeah, I wish. But they said they were having Maya Rudolph be their person. And then to me, I think people would be, like, happy because people were so upset about the mascots.
Starting point is 00:07:31 So now you're saying that they are going to have all of them come out at the Super Bowl and now I'm going to do a dance to Rihanna? Yes. That's what I am saying. Janet Jackson will be reinstated. So you saw that and you immediately. Super Bowl, Emeritus. Oh, I also want to point out. How do you pronounce that word?
Starting point is 00:07:48 Ameritus. The Super Bowl is not on my radar at all, so I also am not looking for pranks right now. I'm not looking out for it to be tricked by a company at this time. It happened at the exact same time that they killed Mr. I was about to say, the peanut thing I remember, and I didn't, I knew people were saying it was super. This is the typical lead-ups. That one I bought. I was like, oh, no, he's actually dead.
Starting point is 00:08:08 You went to his funeral. What I thought was a funeral. You mourned. But I cried. I put cloths over the mirrors. I rent my garments. I like I just I think the Super Bowl is this Sunday by the way The Super Bowl is this Sunday so we'll find out
Starting point is 00:08:28 So I'm glad that we're talking about as it's being released or as we're reporting released Okay Oh that's great do you think the Super Bowl is this Sunday in two days? I don't fucking know you know what actually you started watching basketball I'm never going to watch football I thought they would talk about it there This is what I'm missing though by not being on Twitter because I think if I was on Twitter I would have seen everyone what about the This is for a Super Bowl, you stupid. And I would have understood.
Starting point is 00:08:50 You know? No, I just think, I think this was like, oh, people are talking about the M&M's thing. We have this big campaign with Maya Rudolph coming up. Let's make a big thing out of it. And instead, it's like this weird backlash where people are taking it seriously. We will see, because I'm seeing a lot of articles about this. It's weird that people are invested, but I guess they are. Like, when you don't care about a thing, it's impossible to believe that somebody does.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Something is stupid as that. Yes, I find it weird. Okay, here's something I've been noticing. Could you turn me up at my headphones? Actually, don't. I just turn myself up. Yeah, you have to do it yourself. It's right next to you.
Starting point is 00:09:25 But what I find very strange is like that there are fans of things like Scooby-Doo who are so protective of it that they hate like versions of it, like the new Velma version. Exactly. That Cool-Ops on. Like, there's so much hate for it. Clops on it? Yes, she has, she's working. She recurs on it.
Starting point is 00:09:44 bit in Scooby-Doo's face. That's awesome. What's it called? Velma. Oh, great. And it's just like, it's not the official Scooby-Doo movie or anything. Like, you know, how you used to, when the Superman movie came out, was like, oh, I hope it's good. I hope it's good.
Starting point is 00:09:58 And then it turns out to be good. Yeah. But it's just another random, like, Scooby-Doo show of 8 million Scooby-Doo license properties that will be out there eventually, you know? Like, why get so upset about it? Look, I defended the M&Ms last week, and I stand by that. I hope that the company keep. I was hoping you would recant.
Starting point is 00:10:16 I hope the company keeps them. They're going to show up. And I hope they all do a dance. I think they will do a dance. And I hope it's to Rihanna. I really hope it is. What if it comes out and no, they're never mentioned again. And my Rudolph like eats them at the beginning of the commercial and it's like,
Starting point is 00:10:29 they're dead now. I'd be on board for that. I actually think that's funny. And I think it's hilarious. When I read that they were going to replace them, I felt bad for the people who had just gotten those jobs as the mascots. But I liked the idea. Lauren.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Amber Ruffin. See you know they introduced the character And then a week later They were like Nah, we can't do it Yeah Everybody's mad Yeah and then
Starting point is 00:10:52 We have to appease these people And then I thought Who are filled with eight But I thought But I thought Maya doing like a candy commercial Is actually really refreshing And there's something
Starting point is 00:11:02 Sort of throwback About someone just holding a bag of Eminempsi It is something she hasn't done The commercial for it yet It is refreshing I like I like a candy commercial
Starting point is 00:11:10 Where someone just holds the bag And they're like Yum And then they eat it. And then they eat it. Yeah, that's all we need. Why are we spending millions of dollars on these Super Bowl commercials? Yum.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Or they say yuck, whatever they feel. They should be honest. Yes, be honest enough. This is not to my taste. And don't yumb anybody's yuck and don't yuck anybody's yum. Oh, God. Only yuck yucks and only yum yums. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:34 So if somebody says, I think this is gross. You have to say, I think it's gross that you think that. Oh, you have to make them feel bad. Yeah, that's, do I actually a pervert for thinking that? You're a pervert. That makes you a sick individual. Look, I don't know. We just helped type up the commercial.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I know, I know. Sorry, we're talking about M&Ms again. We've already done the taste test for them. We've played their commercials on this. Look, we had a symbiotic relationship. I didn't need to be a corporate chill and help M&Ms grow their power. I just thought it was a topical thing, and I guess it's not. Do other candy companies make M&Ms?
Starting point is 00:12:05 They just call them something different? Yes, absolutely. Yes, absolutely. They're not as good, by the way. Why? Why shouldn't they be as good? Okay, you know what? Wait, do you know what is really good? but they're expensive.
Starting point is 00:12:16 But they're a sort of... Caviar? Healthier, quote-unquote. Yeah. It's like a healthier alternative to an M&M, I guess. Unreal. Do you know Unreal?
Starting point is 00:12:25 Oh, I've always seen them in the store. They make peanut chocolate-covered peanut, whatever, with a shell. It's essentially a peanut M&M and it's really fucking good. Although I do think the back is like $10. Does it have like roughage in it? It's made from all plants.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I don't know. All plants. I don't know why it's better. It's just better ingredients or, like, less dyes or I don't know what the fuck. Natural dies. Yeah. I follow this account on Instagram called The Food Babe. And she's always like, the food babe.
Starting point is 00:12:55 It's so hot. She's, it's just him saying that. She's always. It's like the Daniel Craig. A grainy video. Yeah, exactly. She's always posting. He used to do commercials for M&Ms.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Daniel Craig? Dennis Miller. Oh, Dennis Miller. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And 1,800 collect. and remember when he called Monday night football for a year? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:18 That's so insane to me. I hope he's okay. I think he's doing great, I guess. Let's protect him at any cost. Anyhow, this account tells you like all the bad things and what you should eat instead. And sometimes it's kind of like, okay, okay. And other times you're like, oh, that's good to know. Okay, so I had pizza last night.
Starting point is 00:13:35 What should I have had to say? Salad? Well, yeah, it's not like that. It's more like this. Everything, they just go, salad. If you're buying this granola, you should know that it has these ingredients that are actually really synthetic and bad. And you should buy this brand because it's all natural or whatever.
Starting point is 00:13:54 And so I'm like, you know, taking a lot of that in right now. It is true. You cannot take, you know, you can't take at face value a package that says, this is all natural and it's healthy and shit like that. Which is so crazy that I could literally say all natural and it's not. Absolutely. Yeah. It's like in quotes.
Starting point is 00:14:11 But. I remember I used to think that Trader Joe's was somehow healthy. I think I thought that too. I think so because it's like... It's like the way it looks because it looks like a farmer's market or something. There's something granola-y about their approach. I thought that for a long time. And then eventually I was like, this has more calories than everything else I ever...
Starting point is 00:14:29 You can't just eat these peanut butter cups. Yeah, which I... Like staving off cancer or something. They taste worse. They should be healthier. You bite your tongue. Oh, I'm so sorry. The dark chocolate peanut butter cups?
Starting point is 00:14:39 I have them in my cabinet right now. So good. Yeah, and the brownies that they sell, like the packaged brownies, really delicious. Yeah. Oh, of course, I mentioned them in my famous Warner Herzog review of Trader Joe's parking line, which lately I've been getting a lot of people on Instagram tagging me with other people doing Warner Herzog impressions. Yeah. And I just want you to know, I'm not interested. Real Warner Herzog, tag me all you want.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Yeah. Fake Warner Herzog, I'm doing my own. It's fine. Yeah, you don't want to be influenced by them. Yeah, that's what I'm worried. They're so much funnier. You don't want to steal their jokes accidentally. I actually am hearing an echo on myself.
Starting point is 00:15:19 I was hearing that on you. I hear you guys fine. Turn every, turn all the headphones down other than yours. That was me, so that was bad. That's probably the issue. What is the special recycling bin you have here? This is for trash now. Cool up got it.
Starting point is 00:15:35 This is, it's so cool. This is for trash now. It's so cool. What is the yellow side say? I can't read it. Half of it is for trash. Half of it is for recycling. It's so fucking cool.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Wait, yellow means trash? What is yellow saying? Lauren's going over to investigate. They both have a recycling thing on that. By the way, put the, put this down. This is what's making. Plastic recycling. Plastic recycling and paper recycling.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Oh, wait, so it's both recycling? Oh, here's. That's not what I want. Sorry, dude. Sorry, dude. You do it to the left. Do it to the left. Do it to the right.
Starting point is 00:16:11 That's the way you block out the light. Did that fix your problem, by the way? It did, honey. Okay. Thank you, honey. Well, wait. We have just received word. Oh.
Starting point is 00:16:23 But now we have to start composting our food waste. I saw this on Instagram, much like I make sure it's a Super Bowl thing. So this is, this is the thing. That would be, that would get me. Yeah. If they got me with composting. Oh, really? And it's about bud light.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Yeah, that would be good. We got a composter for it for this express purpose. But here's my thing. It's kind of a lot of work. But here's my issue with it is that the recycling, they already admitted that they just throw it all in with the trash. Yeah. So what are we? And why are we doing this?
Starting point is 00:17:02 First. Well, the composting thing is actually very important because. No, no. I think composting is important. But I'm saying, why are we, what is the lie? Why are we lying? Why are we saying recycling is not really? Oh, it's not really going there.
Starting point is 00:17:12 I'm like, then what am I making this effort? And we're still doing it. Of course. Yes, plus I don't have enough room in my trash for all the recycling. So I need the second bin. Basically, it's just two trash cans.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Yeah. Just giving you a task of sorting them for fun. But it all has to do with the gases. Right. No. Composting is a huge. Composting will help a lot, but it's,
Starting point is 00:17:32 you also have to teach everyone how to do it. You can't just say, by the way, you have to do it. Here's, here, I should not say composting, although some people in my neighborhood have started doing that.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Well, You have to put it in a separate bin. We have to put it now in the green bin, which is where, like, the organic leaves and shit. And so, but then that means that you have to get another little trash can in your house to put eggshells and chicken. And it's a stinky trash can. Yes. And it gets crithies and stuff. They have said, they have said that they're going to start giving people these special trash.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Well, they should if you want anyone to do it. I have a friend who has a big composter in her yard that's, like, huge, like a big, Oh, my God. And then it's kind of like roll. It's like it's big as a table. For the listener, Lauren put out a tape measure and she just ran around the room. Yeah. It's like this big.
Starting point is 00:18:20 That's big. Yeah. And she like, you know, has her little worms in there and all this activity going on. And they, yeah, they do stuff to it. They put worms in there? Yeah. Yeah. Why?
Starting point is 00:18:30 It helps it like become dirt. Worms help. Look, I don't know. I think, you know, I wouldn't be able to explain it. Worms help make things dirt. That's what they've always done. that's what they always will do. Worms is shit dirt. So whatever they eat, even if it's like...
Starting point is 00:18:44 They chew bubble gum and they kick ass. Yeah, because I dissected one. I dissected one. I saw a big line of shit in it. I dissected one in school. Wasn't that a big day? Did I do a worm? I don't remember. We talked about this. I remember the pig and the frog. I don't remember the worm. I did the worm and the frog.
Starting point is 00:19:00 You just did a frog? You did a worm frog and baby pig. You did a baby pig. You did a baby pig. I know it's really disgusting. Can I say in a way, we're the worm, the frog and the baby pig? Yeah, we are. Who ate? I'm the worm. Obviously, you're the worm. I'm the pig.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Yeah, you're a piss pig. You're a frog because you're kind of like you wear a suit. Yeah, you're like Michigan J. Frog. I'm a pig because I'm like, I have a great personality, but people still want to kill me. They think you're filthy, but you're actually very clean. And you have a little curly dick. Stop. Pig has curly dick and curly tail?
Starting point is 00:19:42 Yeah, that's what's funny about. Can you believe it? Too much curls. That's when God was playing around when he made that. Might as well have a curly nose. God was just like, he was so pleased with himself that day. He was just getting sorry. Check this shit out.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Did you imagine God going through all those details? Like, if you believe that God created everything, he's like, all right, I got to design this pig. I mean, he got it right. Honestly, that's what would happen if you started just drawing random stuff. But wouldn't, if you're a supreme being, I just feel like. And I hope you are at some point. I would make it. listeners are. I would make all these things work with fewer parts. Yeah. Like, you just don't need as many things in the world. No. You know what I mean? Like, they're always like, oh, the bees do this. Blood should just flow. It shouldn't be, you don't need a heart for it. Let, let bees do the pollen shit and all that, but like, take, take away the stinging. Yeah. Like, I have some notes. How much does it help? Do you know what I mean? Yeah. It's like, oh. It helps the poets.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Well, I hate them. Some would say like, okay, well, all the bees, if they can't sting there, the people trying to get them, then they will die out. So it's a natural defense. Guess what? It's already been happening. Yeah. So give them, so what, give them to sting? Have I told the story I got stung by a bee this summer?
Starting point is 00:20:55 No. What did you do this summer? I got stung by a bee this summer. Oh, I know what you did this summer. You got stuck by a bee at Disney. Yeah. Yeah. It really hurt.
Starting point is 00:21:03 You did mention. I was actually in downtown. Was it Splash Mountain where the, where he gets stuck in the, yeah. And then they set up to. They're like, hey, this is going away. Let's have some fun with this. We put in real water. We might as well put in real bees and a real fox.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Where did you get stung, dear? If I've already told it, I'm not telling it again. You're not telling it again? I got stung on my hand, and it was in downtown Disney waiting to go back to the park for nighttime adventures. This is why I tell you, don't go down there. I know. You said it's all of the Disney. It's very dangerous.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Bad things happened down there. So I tell you, I got sung by B when I was searching for my friend's dog. Yes. Yeah. Yeah, I'm a hero. That's so amazing. You do two good things at once. Two sacrificial things.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I didn't stop either. Like I went, ah, and I cradled it and I massaged it, but I kept calling out that name. Do you want to see how my hand is healing? Oh, yeah. Pretty good. That's right. Isn't it crazy how the skin just comes back together and like heals and it's just amazing. It's miraculous and gross.
Starting point is 00:22:00 It's like a T-1,000. Yeah. Like it's weird having stitches and like looking at them and being like, you're keeping it together. Are you a snitch? Yeah. Sometimes I trip out. out on and I'm disgusted by the seal that your mouth makes
Starting point is 00:22:12 your lips coming together. Yeah, it's airtight. It's just like sometimes you can't think about that kind of stuff. Yeah, sometimes you can't, but sometimes you do. Sometimes your brain just wants to be messed. I have Yeah. Oh, wait, wait. Maybe we take a break. Okay. And we
Starting point is 00:22:30 finally have something interesting to talk about. Oh, oh, oh! Oh! It's one of Paul's prompts. Paul's prompts! Oh my God. Okay, let's take a break. Let's take a break. When we come back, Paul's prompts, an astounding new segment on Threatom. This is big, because I've never seen Paul's eyes light up like this. I've never seen Paul's eyes.
Starting point is 00:22:50 No. Which you weren't at. Which is why I didn't see it. You didn't see it. God, he's hair tight. I don't like your mouth. We'll be right back. right?
Starting point is 00:23:09 If you shorten it, it's just phones. We need them, right? We need to get in touch with the people we love to Google what to do about the weird rash that's on our arms, right? Is that relatable to anyone else? To watch endless streams of TikToks as we try to fall asleep.
Starting point is 00:23:25 But do we need expensive phone bills? No, no, no, no. At Mint Mobile, their favorite word is no. No contracts. No monthly bills. No overages. hidden fees, no BS. That's, BS stands for something. Don't look it up, kids. And the best part, oh, BS. BS is in best. The best part, Mint Mobile plans start at $15 a month at Mint. All their plans
Starting point is 00:23:52 come with high-speed data and unlimited talk and text delivered on the nation's largest 5G network. And you can keep your phone that you love so much.

It's Julia Louis Dreyfus from the Wiser than Me podcast. And I'm not going to talk about food waste this time. I'm going to talk about food resources. all that uneaten food rotting in the landfill, it could be enriching our soil or feeding our chickens because it's still food.
Starting point is 00:27:11 And the easiest and frankly, way coolest way to put all its nutrients to work is with the mill food recycler. It looks like an art house garbage can. You can just toss your scraps in it like a garbage can, but it is definitely not a garbage can. I mean, it's true. I'm pretty obsessed with this thing. I even invested in this thing. But I'm not alone. Any mill owner just might corner you at a party and rhapsodize about how it's completely odorless and it's fully automated and how you can keep filling it for weeks. But the clincher is that you can depend on it for years. Mill is a serious machine. Think about a dishwasher, not a toaster. It's built by hands. It's built by hands. in North America, and it's engineered by the guy who did your iPhone. But you have to kind of live with Mill to understand all the love. That's why they offer a risk-free trial. Go to

If you're not late, you're on. I say, if you have a friend then, that's the way to be happy in your life. It's Paul's prompts. I love that.
Starting point is 00:28:39 I really thought something would rhyme with prompts, but... Nothing does, unfortunately. Prompts? Plomp. See? Clumps? I mean, in your rhymes. Gazamps, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:51 Gazumps. Okay, Paul's prompt. What is this? How do we play for... It's not a game. It's just you talking? It's not a game. It's me.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Do you think I'm playing a game? It's not a game. This is me saying something that will prompt conversation. I love that. Okay, let's hear it. There is an intersection that I have to go through almost every day. Intersectional feminism. It is a very broad intersection.
Starting point is 00:29:22 And it's unpleasant because it's like it's too wide and you feel like there can be. there's the potential for an action. It's four-way stop. It's too wide. You prefer it to be a little more narrow to get in there. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:37 So pretty much, you know, it's the rule of, okay, did you get here before me? Then you go. Wait, is the issue there
Starting point is 00:29:47 are more than four-way stop or it's just too wide? It's too wide. It's a four-way stop, but how many lanes? Just single lanes. Single lanes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:57 But the cars are so far away, you can't tell who got, how to... No, you can, but it's like, it's so wide that some people might be... It's just like people are not sure who goes when. Okay. It seems to me. So one time I'm at this four-way stop, and it's my turn. I know that it's my turn. You know, it's your turn.
Starting point is 00:30:21 And I start going into the intersection, and this woman coming from the, uh, perpenet. Indicular? Yeah, either the left or the right of you. She's coming through. She starts coming through and then she honks at me. Right. And I stop and then she goes through and she's like cursing at me through the window. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:39 And I drive. Was she like like the cursing thinner or anything? No, she couldn't touch my face. Okay. And so I, I drive on and I'm like, that sucked. And when I get to my destination, I have a text from my friend Todd Cooper. Yeah. who says, by the way, you were right.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Oh, that lady, that lady was wrong. He saw you. You had the right of way. He saw you. And it was, first, it was very validating. That's so nice to have that. But now, I think of that every time I go through that intersection. You think of the text or you think of the incident.
Starting point is 00:31:16 I think of the whole incident and the text. And so your question is, I think of everything everywhere all in once. I just watch that. Do you have a, is there, is there a location that you, that you have to frequently be at that prompts a memory every time you get there. It happens so much. Wait, let me think.
Starting point is 00:31:34 I have to think of one. But I do feel like my brain does that a lot where I'm like, why? Now I have to think of that every time. Or you know what I think of? Because once you become conscious of it, then it's cemented in it forever. Sometimes what I'll think of is what podcast I was listening to when I was in this area. Like I will remember part of a podcast connected to I was driving here and I was listening to that.
Starting point is 00:31:53 And then that was what they said is right here. And it's like, that's not. Not anything. It's completely worthless. I don't know. Do you have one off the top of your head? I mean, I've had, and I know I've talked about it on the show already. So I've had stuff like that where it's like going into Carl's Jr.
Starting point is 00:32:06 And remembering the time that I, someone was offering me like all the leftover fries that were in the in the friar because they were closing. And I thought he was trying to say like, hey, would you rather have these fries to replace your fries? I was like, yeah, these are actually kind of cold. And he was trying to be nice. And I said, these are cold. And so anytime I go into a Carl's Juniper, I think about that. Okay, but that's also like remembering any misstep that you made. I have like, those like haunt me differently, I think.
Starting point is 00:32:36 This is. Yes. This is it remembering something good that you did. It's where someone cursed to you. It doesn't matter that it happened at all. I thought I was doing good in answering your question, but now you've told me I was bad. I think you're great. I'm just following the prompt.
Starting point is 00:32:53 I know. Why am I in trouble? I don't understand. I'm following the prompt, and I'm trying to parcel out what the prompt is asking, and I feel like you're off base. So I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Yeah. All right. Well, noted. Goodbye. The segment was a flop. Well, no, I think it's a great segment. Why do I try? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:33:11 I'll never have a segment on this show. Whenever I hear pulse prompts again, I'll think of this. You're never going to hear it again. This is the only time it's ever going to happen. Are you trying to forget this stuff, though? Are you trying to... No, I don't care. Because you go through this intersection a lot.
Starting point is 00:33:24 I'm worried that you're going to constantly be rethinking of this one memory, and it's going to suddenly overwrite some of your memories that you should be remembering. Till all my memories are just that? Every time I remember it replaces another memory. Yes. I'm worried about this for you, Paul. Until eventually, I don't know what my birthday is.
Starting point is 00:33:44 I don't know who I'm married to. Oh, I was at this intersection. It was very wide. I don't know. Oh, you know why else it kind of, I don't know. why else it kind of, I realize why it also, that intersection freaks me out because I was at, it was
Starting point is 00:33:59 a similar intersection where I had a horrific car accident where I totaled my wife's car. Because I did not see a stop sign. I blew through a stop sign. So you, so you're you told one story where you're in the right but you're really also in the wrong. You have to stop at a lot
Starting point is 00:34:15 of stop signs to make up for that one. So true. It's so true. How many stop signs are worth a car? So they make these stop signs octagon. octagonal, octagonal. Octagonal. Octagonal. Is this where the podcast has gone?
Starting point is 00:34:29 And it's so that you will notice these things, Paul. Should we get back to Eminet? You'll be like, wait, that sign is not square. I got to look at this thing. Right. And yet you just were like, oh, octagon, who gives a shit? And you just went right through it. Is that basically the story?
Starting point is 00:34:46 Sometimes you can't see a stop sign. It's more what Lauren is saying than what you're saying, although I'm not discounting your theory. It was obscured in some way. They also make them red so you can be like, well, that's not a white sign or a yellow sign. This is a red one I need to pay attention. What if it was the wrong shade of red? You'd be like, no, that's not real. If it was maroon, I don't know that I would take it as seriously.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Or like copper, like blood red in a way. You think blood looks like copper? Blood tastes like copper. It tastes like copper. But it's brown. It's certainly blood is brown, not really red. That's when it dries. That's not really true.
Starting point is 00:35:21 You got to admit. It's a beautiful color when it's coming. coming out of you. Oh, it's beautiful. When I sliced my hand, it was all. I saw blood, blood, blood, blood. Blood, blood. You're getting blood. Oprah just gives everybody blood. Yeah. So you just did not see this stop sign. What were you looking at instead? I did not see it. I think I was reading a book. I had a book on my laugh. I remember once I said to go love, she's like, oh, this is when iPhones were just coming out. And she was like, there are a lot of studies that there are a lot of accidents caused by people looking at their iPhones. And I was like, it's just the same as reading the newspaper on your way to work.
Starting point is 00:35:58 And she's like, well, you shouldn't be doing that either. Were you doing that? Occasionally, like, if you had to go to, like, Santa Monica and you're stuck in literal, like the 405 101 interchange, like, you will stay there for 45 minutes, just barely moving. Everybody hurts. Yeah, I feel like that's when people, you see people like putting their makeup on and doing all sorts of dangerous things. changing their clothes. Danger, it's a signing.
Starting point is 00:36:24 Jennifer Beals takes her bra off under her sweatshirt. That's what got her the audition. Is that from? Got her the role. Got her the audition? Somebody's done to do that at a restaurant.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Like, hey, we have this written into a script. No, she did it in the audition and so Adrian Line cast her in the thing and put it into the thing. She did it in her audition?
Starting point is 00:36:46 Yeah, she was just like... Now, that's the kind of bold move I wouldn't think to do. You should do it in your next audition. Just take your bra. I'll just throw it. I'll just throw it in there. Imagine, like, thinking, like, what should I?
Starting point is 00:36:56 Maybe I should take my bra off under my shirt. What's the scene that's happening in the scene? No, no, this was like just in a meeting, I think. It wasn't even like, her reading. She was just, like, talking to him and just, like, was changing and kind of did that. And he was like, it was a different time. I got to put this in my movie. It's also, this was her first big thing.
Starting point is 00:37:16 Yeah. Nothing. Like, to be an unknown. Can be true. And you're like, I'm going to go. for it. I don't think it was you're mischaracterizing it. She was not a plan thing. No, I'm doing that on purpose. Oh, why
Starting point is 00:37:30 though? It's, it amuses me to do so. I like to think of Jennifer Beals with a whiteboard before this meeting. She's plotting this holding out. She's practicing for her. I love her. I'm all caught up on Elwood Generation Q. I'm not, but I do love her. It was great because we got a lot of bet in this season and a nice finale ending that was good story for her. Do you know what I want to
Starting point is 00:37:53 rewatch, which I saw in the theater when it came out and it's not a good movie from what I recall. The Bride where she plays the Bride of Frankenstein. Oh, you never heard of that. And Sting plays Dr. Frankenstein. Oh, I was just hearing that he's a good actor. Where? I'm smartless.
Starting point is 00:38:11 What? Because they were talking about Bono. His Bono was on the show and then they were like Bono, he'd probably be a good actor. And they're like, Sting's a good actor. Naming other singers who are actors. He's an okay actor for Sting. I think that's probably where the bar is. He was great on Studio 60, of course.
Starting point is 00:38:27 No, he's like finding Quadrophenia because he wasn't famous yet. But then suddenly he's like hugely famous and he's just sting. I don't know. What's going on your wrist, Paul? I'm having a quick one off the wrist. My wife and I are engaged in the hunt for some important documents. Red October? And I think she may have found them.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Oh, do you want to share what they are? Did Joe Biden leave something in your garage? My friend Hunter. Let me guess. Is it the Burisma file? What are you looking for? The title to my old car. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Because you need to give it away, give it away, give it away now. I know that was the kind of thing. Like sometimes you just go, where? Did I have the foresight to put this somewhere logical? And I recently had that experience where I was like, hey, the thing I'm looking at. for as in a folder labeled that thing. And I was like, that was amazing. And I actually need to go in my file cabinet and do that with everything.
Starting point is 00:39:25 And just do it all again, because it's been years since I've really organized it. We do have a big binder that's all like just important documents. Like everything. Is that what you're going for when, when, by the way, because I know it. Shit. I'm going to be setting it on fire later. Don't. Why would you do that?
Starting point is 00:39:42 Will you tell me when? It's like banshees of it and shir. I don't watch that and I want to watch it. Oh, it's great. I put it on, but then I wasn't in the mood. I was just like not paying attention. It absolutely is one of those. You have to be in the mood, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:53 But it's great. It's really great. He loves it. But he loves many of the moochers. So I, I took, you were talking about Mike? I didn't hear.
Starting point is 00:40:02 Yeah. No idea. You just didn't know if what we were talking about and said he likes me. No, I heard blah blah, he likes Minnie the mootcher. Were you talking about Mike?
Starting point is 00:40:12 Because I just wanted to say that. That's what you're just guessing if I was talking about. I'm no longer listening to you. Oh my God. We talked about this off. Mike but Mike loves Oh wait that wasn't on the show No it was on the show
Starting point is 00:40:24 It was on the show Are you sure? I think it was This show sucks I know I know How I hit my hand In the sensitive part
Starting point is 00:40:35 Why are we doing this But here's the Okay so here's the thing It was in that A binder of important documents Okay But I had already taken it out And put it with the rest of the old car stuff
Starting point is 00:40:48 But that's dangerous it is dangerous because then I misplaced it Yeah Oh wait so you took it out You took it out of the important place To prepare it To prepare to go to its final destination Here are all of the things that you're going to need
Starting point is 00:41:01 Yes exactly And then you misplaced it And they're in a smaller folder And then I misplaced a smaller folder But luckily Danger zone My baby came through Yeah you know I do think like there's something about
Starting point is 00:41:12 Do you feel like you misplaced it in the house Do you think it got moved? I misplaced it in the house Okay because I feel like I have like a system in my mind mind for like my bills and things like i'll get mail and i'm like i'm like i'm going to put this right here and i'm going to do it and then mike will put it in a different pile and i'm like that's a pile where i forget about everything i don't yeah i don't like i don't like i have to go on a
Starting point is 00:41:31 hunt for my pills hunt for my bills hunt for my bills hunt for my title hunt i don't like putting something of mine somewhere and then having cool up move it so where do you you You know, when Kool-Up lose my stuff? Somewhere else. Yeah, so, like, I put it in the same place every day because I, because I'll wake up at the morning, I'll have my coffee, and I'll have to take all my pills, right? Yeah. And I know where they are.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Make your eggs and your bacon, too. And it's not like Kul-ups up. I take my pills and do what I do. I do my podcast all day in my little room. Kul-up's still sleeping. So it's not like I could ask her, hey, where are my pills? So I'm, so, like, I open the cabinet door and they're not there. then I have to go,
Starting point is 00:42:18 fuck, now I have to go on a... Moved from the cabinet. That's... No, they're in a different place in the cabinet or so... How big is this cabinet? Are we talking medicine cabinet? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:42:28 In our... A kitchen. You mean a cupboard? In the cupboard. I call it a cabinet. I call it cabinet, yeah. Anyway. Okay, so we put somewhere else
Starting point is 00:42:39 and then you're like, if I don't have my pills by nine, I'll turn into a werewolf! My anti-wearwolf pills! They have pills for it now. Isn't that great? Yeah, they do. Nobody has to be a werewolf anymore.
Starting point is 00:42:51 I think that's really nice. It's not curable, but it is treatable. But if you want to, you still can. You have to take nine a day. If you want to be a werewolf, you still can be a warwolf. It is your choice. I want to see your doctor. And if your doctor's a werewolf, then you can go see him.
Starting point is 00:43:07 My mother-in-law, by the way. What? My mother-in-law had a car accident on her way to visit us. Why? On her way to the airport. And totaled the car. This is a couple months ago. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Total the car. And I heard her on the phone talking to the insurance person, I guess. And they're like, well, can you send us the title of the car? And she was like, it's in the car. And I audibly, this is all on speaker, I audibly heard the person say, well, you're not supposed to do that. That's really tough. That's a tough one, though, because I feel like you need someone to tell you that. That's not a given about this type of thing because it's a give your registration.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Don't you think somebody always does, though? Probably. I mean, I was told at some point. I don't know. But I'm saying, like, I don't know who told me or why I know that. But, like, it feels like it makes sense to be, like, license of registration slash, I think in your mind you can also kind of go, title is registration. I don't know. There's an official guy.
Starting point is 00:44:16 It doesn't seem like all car things go together in the car. Anytime you buy a car, there should be a guy there. And this is his only job. Yeah. And he says, hey, by the way, dear, don't put that title in the car. The person who sells you the car says, congratulations, and they ring a bell on their desk. And then this gentleman comes out. And he looks imposing, but he's dressed really fancy, but he's like it's friendly.
Starting point is 00:44:37 It's like a friendly neutral shame. Like a Lord Grantham. And he comes out and he says, just a reminder. Don't keep the tight. in the car. Yeah. And then smoke bomb? Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:44:50 And he's gone. Because you're going to remember that. He's still there. He's still there after the smoke bombs. He just moved over. And he says, who was that fellow? It's like, come on. I know. He just took off his bowtie.
Starting point is 00:45:02 Who is that? I was just thinking about a magic tricker I saw on Instagram. Oh, my gosh. Did you say magic trick? No, I said a magic trick I saw. Oh, okay. Like you didn't know the word magician. Justin Wilman, who's a magician.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Oh, sure. Who's a magic tricker? He's a magic for human. Yeah, I like his show. He posted this trick, and I was so, it was the kind of thing where I just went, I just have no idea how anything. Of course, there were cameras and someone could say, well, that person's in on it and it was all camera. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:45:31 I choose to suspend my disbelief. I hear that that's how all the David Blaine specials were done. Like where he's floating off, he's floating off the sidewalk, you know? Did you ever see those? Oh, yeah, uh-huh. Where it's like, the camera looks down and he's like floating. and everyone around him on the sidewalks are going, whoa. But they're all actors or paid.
Starting point is 00:45:52 They're not only, I think, are they actors? You could be an actor or you can be paid, but you can't be both. They're either. It's a tough life, kids. They're either actors or they have to film it so many times because so many people can see how he's doing it, that the few times where he's doing it with the exact right angle, where no one can see that he's actually standing on the ground. Right. they go whoa and they're like oh thank god we got one we've wasted so much tape yeah i mean i'm sure a lot of stuff is fake i i just you know i assume i mean some tricks are being
Starting point is 00:46:25 well no i don't think that but i'm saying i do think some tricks are being performed in real time and the person doesn't understand how it happened but i also think like the david copperfield making the statue of liberty disappear is bad because it's like hey we're going to do this and he has a crowd right and then it's a simple camera trick right they do the way I saw it explained is basically like the cameras pointed at the Statue of Liberty they put a curtain down
Starting point is 00:46:52 they move the camera like slightly clockwise to a part where the Statue of Liberty is not they raised the curtain and the Statue of Liberty isn't there but the whole crowd is going whoa! But they're just liars yeah they're liars the crowd can see the Statue of Liberty
Starting point is 00:47:08 is right over there where it's always been seems like a waste of time Do you know, I did that pretty much the same thing at the end of my last comedy special. What? Made the Statue of Liberty disappear? Yeah. But for nobody cared.
Starting point is 00:47:19 Somebody said David Copperfield or I did that. And I was like, oh. We didn't hear the boo. Somebody could have told me yesterday. I ended the special by, the idea was I was going to throw a smoke bomb down on the floor and then disappear. And so it was all done in post. But I had to coach the audience through it.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Mr. Grantham? Much like Lord Grantham. I do coach the audience through it to say like, oh, pretend I've disappeared. Yeah, so here's what's going to happen. I'm going to jump back. I'm going to go like this because I didn't actually have a smoke bomb. Right. And then I'm going to walk off so that the camera can get the shot of me, not there.
Starting point is 00:48:00 And so I need you to, you know, you're clapping because at the end of the show. And then I do that. And then you have to be like stunned. Yeah. And then take a beat and then give me like huge applause. And did everyone just applaud right away. No, they did it perfectly. They actually did it perfectly.
Starting point is 00:48:17 I can't believe you got an audience to actually do that many steps. They did. I think we did it one time. They did it. They nailed it. It was great. But your whole audience was like Oscar winning actors. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:28 Oh, I went in. Yes, full disclosure. My old buddy D-Day was there. D-Day. Who's that? Daniel David. Oh, no. My dear boy.
Starting point is 00:48:38 D-Day. D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D. D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D. Lauren, do you want to talk about your trick? And then he retired from acting because of it. The trick was, it involved him putting, so he had a woman look at a deck of cards. She chose one in her mind of, you know, the card. He put the whole deck in between her two hands very tightly.
Starting point is 00:48:59 He put the whole deck in her hands? Yeah. And then he reached in and, like, grab the card, and it was the proper card. Right. And she was like, wow. And then she was like, wow. And then she wasn't that impressed. And then he goes, yeah, it's pretty crazy because there's not even any card there.
Starting point is 00:49:13 And then in her hand was just a brick of glass. So I was like, that's amazing. However you're doing that is amazing. I don't know at all how that's possible that someone wouldn't feel their hands change. And a lot of tricks involved that with someone holding something and then it is something else. And I'm like, how? How do they not feel the shift in their hands? Tiny minds?
Starting point is 00:49:37 tiny mimes as well yeah mice and mimes it's sort of cool that that magicians refuse Tiny mines oh yeah well they throw the cards into tiny tiny mines I just meant these people were stupid
Starting point is 00:49:49 yeah but don't you think it's cool how magicians like refuse to share their secrets do I think it's cool I think it's rude it's kind of cool because it's like if I could just know right now I don't think I'd be that happy as a person
Starting point is 00:50:00 but you're happy right now but I'm a happy person because I don't have that and so I think that they're actually keeping me like not depressed No, I do like that. I do like that. And that was Penn and Teller's whole stick. And that magician. What, not telling?
