Freedom! Freedom! Freedom. I hold my R's on that one. Freedom. Beautiful. Wow, much like the lion from Zubilee Zoo. I don't...

What is Zubilee Zoo? Zubilee Zoo was a PBS program. Parental body inspector. Yes. Parental body inspector. It's parental body specter. Apostrophe specter. It's a show where these grown actors.

These grown ass actors. Played animals who all had different personalities and they interacted in a sort of white. Unlike real animals. It's pretty much the same. Liminal space. Birds, worms. Same personality. It was like a white state.

with like little pieces that would come out. Like the Mac PC commercials? It was basically like that. But then they would have like little set, like little pieces of the set that they would use from time to time. Like a chair. Sure.

But yeah, it was very, very... Half a table. Bare bones. But the makeup was well done. They were skeletons. They were animals. Animal skeletons. In underneath the like makeup,

the costume, the human skin, there was a skeleton. They were bare bones. Yeah. Yeah. They were. just described them as a just walking bones. Did you meet that piece of walking bones the other day?

That piece of walking bones. See that hot piece of walking bones? Damn, those bones walked well. Hey, welcome to freedom. Skeletons are funny. My name is Paul. Skeletons are silly. My name is Lauren.

Skellasins are scary. My name is Scott. See? Three personalities. Yeah. They're all very different. That's how we interpreted skeletons. Yeah.

And that's just a little taste of what you'll get on the episode. of freedom. If you ever listen to one, good by. Skeletons, if you ever saw literally what they show at Halloween, but literally a human skeleton walking around. You don't see that in horror movies ever, but it's so famous in Halloween. Skeletons are everywhere. Everywhere.

What if our skeletons actually had like little, you know, like rivets where the arms and legs? What are they called? You know, on a cardboard skeleton decoration That has the little... Brads? Bradts, yeah. But they're not really brads. They're just like gold circles.

They're like the absence of brads. Yeah. The idea of a brad. Yeah. But if you saw literally the bones that would be in a human being, you're not dressing it up or making it scary or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just walking around your house.

It would be scary. It would be scary. You don't need to dress up a skeleton. We don't dress up skeletons really a Halloween. We don't need to put them in top hats. No. We don't need bow ties. to.

It's fun to do it. The First Amendment protects that. What about the keel skeleton? Yes. Yes. You know you've made it when you've been asked to sign the keel skeleton. We don't.

We don't talk enough about the keel skeleton. No, we don't. And we need to. Well, because honestly, when you think about it, is that their mascot, they do all skin-related stuff. Something that is the absence of skin itself. Right.

It's like, if you use our stuff long enough, this is what you'll end up at. If you scrub away, your skin too much. There's no model that they use. think. Who has the best skin in the world? I mean,

you can't, can't quantify that. Who has the best skeleton in the world? Me. I know. You think so? I know I have a good

skeleton. Strip away everything. Yeah. And your skeleton is really, really attractive. Yes. All were skeletons, like in 100 years

when we're dead and we're skeletons and they pulled up all three of our skeletons. Anyone could be able to go, that's Lauren, that's Scott and that's Paul. Probably from how tall we are. Probably from height.

We gave out our heights on it. We did give them out. And I mean, I'm never should have done that. I'm also not male. And I think that that should look different. Because you wouldn't have a penis bone. Yeah. Yeah.

I wouldn't have a big penis bone. Sticking six feet out of the ground. That's how, that's why they need caskets because otherwise, exactly. They'll be breaking through the ground. That's why we need caskets. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. It took them a long time to figure that out. Right. What if you saw in your house and it's, let's say somebody you knew and they called you said, hey, I'm going to come over. There is something different about me,

and I don't want you to be freaked out when you see it. Okay. But they don't say what it is. They don't say what it is. Well, God, I would be driving as fast as I could. You're driving to them? You want to come over to my house and show, you want me to come over?

No, they're coming over to your house. Oh, they want to come over to my house? Yeah. That's how you were driving away from your own home. No, I thought they wanted me to come over and see it. No, no, I'm coming over. Okay. Something is different about me.

And I don't want you to be freaked out by it. Then I'd be like, where, just get, you should have, you should just be, you should be outside. I can't wait any longer. What is it? I am outside, actually. I'm calling from the car. Good. Thank God.

Yes. All right. I'm coming in. What is it? And then they come in and their head is just a skull now. Like the rest of their body is intact. Yeah, it's fine. But it's just a skull.

They can talk. Where does the skin start? Do they have hair? No, no hair. Does skin start under the jaw line or under the neckline? Under the neckline. So if you're, if they're wearing a polo shirt. Yes.

Would you see anything? skin? They would, I would say they would probably try to make it so that you couldn't see the skin. If you were Michael Kane and ripping over, ripping open like a tennis jacket. I'm just like pulling it down. Pulling it down to Shochester. You'd see some of that skin. Yeah, you'd probably see some of the skin. I can't, I can't tell you exactly where the skin joins. It probably doesn't look great. I'll be honest. Is it, does it meld in like, like gradually, like an ombray? Hey man, I don't know. I think, I think what my, I feel like you should know this stuff.

And your friend is trying to shield you from that and they're wearing a turtleneck. I think my first reaction. So the little bony neck is sticking up on this and the skull on top. My first reaction is I'm not opening the door to that. I might be looking through the window going, what's going on? What happened? You might be saying like, hey, take off your mask and let me, show me the real thing. Because you can tell us on a mask because it's smaller than their head.

But you know what they do a lot of now is these fake phone calls where they're using real people's voices? Spoofs. I don't know if they're called spoofs. I think they're called. I think if you had like an unusual like sudden birthmark syndrome and you said, hey, like there's something weird about my face. Or like remember when Carrie Underwood just kind of said that to all of her fans? Yeah, but nothing was different, right? I mean, she's still hot as shit.

She had some sort of accident, but she looked fine. SBS. I'm sure it felt different to her. Remember when Kate Middleton was like, like, I just face tuned my face, but then it turns out she was actually a werewolf. Yeah. But if you had something like that, showing. up with a skeleton mask first is a good idea to be like...

And then you pull it off. It's just a birth. But I mean, they're saying it's, let's say it's Mary Holland. That's who I'm imagining actually. I was imagining her coming up to my house. Yes. And then I'm thinking, okay, so I know it's her because I know what she looks like. Yeah. Normally. And then I'm seeing

that the top part, the head, is just a skull. Yeah. I think she'd be crying. I don't think she'd be like... Would tears come out if it was just a skull? Well, I think she'd be distraught. No, of course she'd be distraught. The teardocks are on top of the skull, aren't they?

On top of the skull? On top of the... They're not underneath the skull, are they? Or are they? I don't know. Where are the tearducts? The tearducks, I guess, are part of the circulatory system, maybe? Which are over the skull.

Laid over the skull. Yeah, so she wouldn't be crying. In her voice, she'd be crying. Yeah. She'd be wishing she could. You know what? Let's say she can cry. And that there's tears coming out of the eye holes.

I still probably would... It sounds like when skulls cry. I think it's still keep her outside. Really? Your friend Mary, you keep her outside. She's pleading with you. I'd go have this conversation just like sitting out front kind of. Like, I don't know that I'm going to.

What? I don't know that I'm going to. I don't know what's going on. Then there's all the, she's telling you. What did she say? Well, you have to let her in. Why? Because she's your friend and she needs you.

But it's like, what if she's a zombie or something? She's not a zombie. She said that on the phone. She said, I'm not a zombie. And she doesn't, and she doesn't, look like a zombie. She said she told me on the phone something's different about me. Yeah, I'm not a zombie. So then that's a weird. That's a weird one thing to call out. I don't

want to say it over the phone. I'm very embarrassed. So can I please come to your house and get inside you quickly as possible? I'll bring outside a hat and like a. Oh my God. Lauren. Maybe in a like a parasome. Like a mask. I'm really getting to learn a lot about you. Look, and I'm not letting her come in because. What if it's catching? What if it is? And then you're making it worse. It's not catching. It's not catching. But so what if... And how do I know that? She just says?

She's not a doctor. No, a doctor has told her. Here's what I don't want. What doctor? You think she hasn't gone to a doctor? Dr. Phil? I don't want to be in my own home. And then later when she's not there thinking a skeleton was sitting right there.

She's not a skeleton. Well, what's her? Her head is a skull. She's not a skeleton. That's the only difference. She's still your friend. She's still your friend. Your good, good friend.

Her brain is good. What? Her brain is great. It's right there inside. It's even better. You can see part of it. She has his experience. So her brain is better

Because she had this experience If you squint through her aisles Is that how you think about like life and experiences Or your brain gets better When you have a bad experience? Does it get worse? Of course Okay

The thing about zombie movies is everyone's like Oh how do we kill them Wouldn't you be trying to cure them like Like if it was your loved one You'd be like hey what if they come up with a cure Tomorrow I feel like that's every 100th zombie movie

So it should be a zombie movie Yeah where it's your wife and you're like, I'm really trying to make this work. It's very rare. Very nice, zombie. Love zombie wife. Zombie wife nice.

My. My zombie wife. My zombie wife. My zombie wife. Take my zombie wife, please. But cure her. Do you? Please cure her.

Please cure my zombie wife. Please. Do you think I sound like a musical zombie? I think Do you think that when that joke, Take My Wife, Please. Yeah. Was first set.

I think it's still funny. But anyway, go ahead. Because it's the idea is you would think he's saying, Take my wife, for example. Yeah, he's saying like, oh, there are all sorts of people out there in the world. Take my wife. Please.

He hates his wife. People laughing at vaudeville. That's wild. How many people really hate their wives? Let's just fall. 50%. Well, 50% get divorced. Yeah, but.

How many divorces are amicable of that 50%? 3% maybe? Yeah, I don't think divorce is really amicable down the line. But I think 3% are like, you know what? This is probably the best thing for both of us. There are no bad guys in this situation. Yeah. Yeah.

I've heard of one of those. There ain't no good guys. What's that song? I don't know. There ain't no good guys. Yeah, there's a song. There ain't no bad guys. There's only you and me and we just disagree.

Anyone you're getting a divorce with, you should play that. Yeah. That song is all middle. Yeah. Middle range. It just sort of stays in the same place. Slight variations up and down. It's like an EKG.

It's a good karaoke song then. This is by Dave Mason, by the way. Thank you, Dave. If we want to hear a little bit of it. Sure. First off, this is an ad for her. This sounds different. It sounds different.

Something at Las Vegas, twice 20, 24? I don't know what this is. Okay. This song rocks my socks. This song rocks. What year did this come out? Oh, my God. I'm banging my head.

1979. Okay. released on I don't know I don't know Even this part It's like It never changes

It never gets better Okay let's hear some comments on this This is one of those songs That just touches the soul And makes you think about life slash love and relationships Well because it's about that You could never understand

Why this great song by Dave Mason Didn't get more air time on the radio I've fucking heard it Yeah I've heard it a million times A truly hidden gem among rock pop songs. I think I've only heard this song in the radio.

I know. I've never seen. Wait, keep it going. Here's another comment. I've been listening to this song for over 45 years. Weird. Continuously. Please come get me.

I'm trapped in a place where they keep playing this song. Here's another one. There's only you and me and we just disagree. This is the very first time I heard. this song, I think it may have healed my broken heart when the love of my life took a different path all those years ago. Death? Now when you just heard it

the first time, it healed your heart from years ago? And it was all those years ago? And just today your heart is healed? Let's rewrite this comment. Wait, what's the date on that comment? One year ago. Wow! Wait, 16 replies to that comment. Hey, I never went anywhere. Great song to recover yourself in. Right on,

brother, this song has that effect. Cover yourself in. Can I just say? It is a special sing song. Don't you feel... 100 emoji. Hard emoji. Don't you feel like... I feel your pain.

There should be like a clean sweep of like internet comments going past 10 years ago. Like let's just like erase... Let's sweep them all down. Yeah. Twitter, anything... Anything sweep it. Too much history is being built on the internet.

I think we need to like clean it up. I disagree. Why? Because I think that it teaches people... You're going to put this online? It's going to be up there forever. Yeah. So think carefully.

That does not work. People write whatever the fuck they want. That's right. They're dumb. Hey, breaking news. I have a press release just sent to me. HBO renews real time with Bill Marr through 2026. I'm not done.

And Paul L. Tompkins is back on this show. Wait, what? Could they renew your contracts this many years later? That would be weird. Without asking you had to do it. Oh, God. Can you fucking imagine? Oh, there ain't no good guys.

There ain't no bad guys. But that's my segment. I just sing out. Bill Maher and we just disagree. I end my segment by singing that entire song, To Bill, every week. Every week. And he loves it.

And he keeps you on the show. I got an argument with someone that I know about, like, people being too sensitive these days or whatever. And so we're going back. and forth, and then he finally sent me a clip. It's like, well, what do you think about this? And it was a clip of Bill Maher, and I'm like, I automatically disagree. I don't have to watch it.

I will not watch it. There are no good points that are made. There aren't no good points. The lonely bad points. You were on it. You were on it? The first season, yeah. Like regularly.

Every week. He did. Ten episodes. And I thought very funny. Oh, thank you. Very kind of. He would write a new thing about something that was going on in the news? I would write a new thing about something that was going on in the news.

Wow. Scott pitched it perfectly if that's what it was. Yeah. Every week, and what were some of the subject matters? Do you remember? The only one I remember, the only one is there was a, you know, one of those times where there was a Confederate flag issue. Where they're like, should they're pro? I was pro.

And I made a pretty good case. Yeah. But I remember, the only thing I remember is that at the end of the segment, Bill felt it necessary to point out. that the Civil War was not just fought over slavery, but it was other states' rights. Great. Yeah. Awesome.

Yeah. Yeah, it was interesting because I was, that was like around the first year that I was doing the live show down at Embar. 2003. Yeah, 2002 is when we started. And he would come, because he would have comedians on doing their bits, he would come to the show that I was producing and recruit. Snatch people up.

Recruit a lot of the acts. Like I remember, Jerry Miner had a really funny bit. Jerry Miner had a funny bit on there. Yeah. Anyway, those were the days. Good taste. Those were the days.

Well, he had nothing. That's crazy that you did 22 years ago or 21 years ago. That's when I met Janie. Yeah. As a result of that show, I would not have met Janie had enough in that show. Wait, why? Because another. Mar used to date her.

She brought her around. She left him for you. This is crazy. This is crazy. I met a guy who worked on that show who similarly felt out of place. And he invited me to a gathering of friends at a place called Cafe Desartees. Is it still there? No, it's not there anymore.

You know, Kulap and I still go to the place where we had our first date quite often. Was it Cafe Desartees? Pasta maniacs? She used to work there in Minnesota. What was it called? Was it called Pasta. Hogan's pasta maniacs. Yeah.

Hulk Hogan's pasta maniac. Yeah. She worked there when she was... Are you flicked at my pasta mania? Come out of your brother. Honestly, yeah. My clinic will heal you. Our first day was sushi and tap and it is changed into now sushi Dan, rock and roll sushi.

And we eat there quite often. In Studio City? Yeah. Yeah. I used to go there. Yeah. No tap dancers anymore. Yeah.

Oh, I forgot that that's what the tap part was. Yeah. When would that happen? Oh, you think it was beer? Yeah. of course. It would happen every, I think they would probably do it every 45 minutes to make sure that every customer got to see one performance.

And it would be the same performance every time. I don't know. Yeah, probably. So if you lingered, you probably would see the same thing over. Yeah, yeah. Maybe you'd see twice. And there was like a stage? No, I think they would do it like in between the tables, as I recall.

Tableside tap? I think it was table side service. No, I don't want to see that. What did they do? Tab tap dancing. Tap dancing? Yes. That's crazy.

It's where you tap your feet. It makes noise. I've heard of that. You wear special shoes. I still have my tap shoes. I saw that in the Cosby show. It's weird. I know.

I haven't tap danced in anything. Was it Gregory Hines? Savian Glover. Savian Glover. I think I might have tapped. I might have tapped in some comedy shows, but really I haven't tapped for like for good for now 33 years. Wow.

choose. Am I a hoarder? I actually same amount of time for me and I was doing the Bartman in my tap class. The Bartman. We did a tap dance performance to do the Bartman. And was there a dance that went with the Bartman on the show? I don't know, but can we hear it? Yeah.

I mean, obviously, sticking his butt in the camera, right? Yeah, that's the main thing. Because he's rude. Yeah, he's a rude dude. He's insinciate. He's in a attitude. Okay, so first we'll see an ad for. Oh, the cancer.

Why is it always? Help kids live. It's horrible. Okay, so YouTube, there's this is the video. I had the tape, Simpson Sing the Blues,

which was such a great tape. Sure. Yeah. I love tapes. I had a couple great tapes that my godfather got me from the Marlboro like system of sending in packages. Oh, like Marlboro Miles.

Yeah. A Marlboro Christmas tape that I loved as a kid. I had a, watch that I got with Marlboro Miles. And I kept this for a really long time. The Marlboro logo on the back. There's so much cartoon before the song starts.

We have to take a break. So we'll be right back. So much cartoon. I love finding those pieces that become staples in my closet.

And we're back. Cartoon's still going. Still hasn't started. But we're waiting for it. What the fuck is he doing? It's like a school recital. He's trying to... Making like little karate noises or something.

He's trying to jump up behind everyone because his parents can't see him. Oh, now he's plugged in his own walkman. To the sound system somehow? Okay, Lauren, can you still do the dance, especially while pregnant? Yeah, I can do the full tap dance. Tap, tap, tap. Oh my God, look at her a go. Yep.

I'm on the table. Wings. I'm sorry, this must have been so cute when I was doing this. I've been, like, that's the funniest thing. It's amazing to say that about yourself. Well, because I get really a picture being myself watching Holly do that now, and I'm doing this is the best thing I've ever seen. I've been going through the billboard R&B charts from the 80s.

Was that on there? No, but I'm reminded when I see this, of just like, there was a certain time around. Take that Ashford instance. It was a weird time. There was some time around 1982 where like every comedian just put out their own rap song. Absolutely. And some of them would chart because there's like Mel Brooks charted with his good to be the king rap or whatever.

And then Rich Little charted with the president's rap. No. Oh my God. Yeah. The president's rap? A little bit of the president's rap. Okay. Would it help me memorize the order?

Probably not. I have a, I think I can get to the first four presidents. That's not many. Then there's a large gap. Washington Adams. And then I can get it from, I think, Wilson on. Wilson. The volleyball?

Here. Yeah. Oh, wow. Do you remember when that volleyball is president? No ad on Rich Little. He got so much done. This is 1982, nine minutes long. What?

Because it was meant to be played in clubs and shit. And it also, yeah, it uses the TomTom Club. Can you imagine you're cooked out of your mind? You go to a club. You're just a little. What a dance. This comes on. Here's some credits.

Ronald Reagan, Rich Little. Nancy Reagan, Melanie Chartoff. She played Melanie Chartoff? Yeah. She was an actress. Remember. This also was the year that everyone was ripping off the Tom, Tom, Tom, Club song. And using it for their own songs, which...

When do they start rapping? I don't know. They. When do all the presidents start rapping? Yes, dear. Now, be honest. At my age, do you think I should be doing something like this? Believe me.

Talking about sex. Every once in a while, it's healthy to do this sort of thing. Oh, that's exactly what Nancy Reagan sounded like. Yeah, it's so... Atlanta. Hello, I'm Nancy Reagan. Just to stay do. Probably not.

Oh, no. Where the laughter come from? That's right. I forgot this has a laugh track. I like it. Oh, Ronnie, you look good, dear. I like the way you look. And the water wings?

No. Holy shit. That song all the way around. When do they rap? I know. Skip a hairs. All right. What if it's eight minutes of this and then one minute of rap?

Good luck. I think it might just be jokes and no rapping. Well, that sucks. Fuck that shit. If you buy a record that's president's rap, you want to hear him. Of course you do. You don't want to hear club jokes with a laugh track set to a beat. I don't want to hear Nancy Reagan in there.

Imagine dancing to this in a club and be like, yeah. And like requesting it from a DJ. When I was coming up in comedy at the Comedy Works in Philadelphia, which is my home club. Yes. There would be a. a song that was played after the shows. Of course, I've told you about the terror The Curly Shuffle.

Yeah. That was a different, that was a different club. By the way, a 45 that I bought as a kid. Yeah, sure, of course. Yeah. With your own money? With my own money. What'd you do to earn it?

Probably all that weeding with all the roly-poly bugs. When you were at the store and you were picking it up, was there a dying soldier saying, earn this? So. Yeah, it's crazy to think that

like my grandfather and fought in World War II and my dad fought in Vietnam so I could save up money to buy the Curly Shuffle record. Best country of the world. What a disappointment I am. We didn't have any good wars. You could go now.

Yeah. I'll go now. I'll go fight someone right now. I'll fight one person. Go outside. Just go outside. To the death. What do you think would happen if you went down to like an Army recruitment center at your age? And say, I want to go. Here's the thing.

I'm a pretty accomplished guy. I want to go straight to general. And I want to do, like, I'm not going to, like, go to, you know, boot camp and all that kind of stuff. I want to go straight to one-star general. So you're going to skip the process. But I wonder if it's, like, college where, like, you know, occasionally I'd be recruited of, like, oh, I know you haven't graduated, you know, junior college yet, but we'll take you into the graduate program at Temple or whatever, you know, right away.

But you know what I mean? Like, like, oh, you seem like a cool guy. You got a good head on your shoulders. You're smart. Yeah. Well, you don't have to do private sergeant, all that kind of stuff. We'll just go right to general, right from enlistment. Did you say Temple in there?

Yeah. No, Temple University. Yeah, why did you say Temple University? Because I think they offered me to go to like acting school. Oh, really? Yeah. What if we had met in Philadelphia while you were in the Army? Would that be crazy?

Well, I was in the Army. But you would have been a couple years behind me, so we wouldn't have met in school because I did not last. Oh, yes. We would not have been college jumps. Well, it just wouldn't have happened. But wait, here's what it happened. You needed Bill Mard interviews you too. Here's what happened.

After the show at the Comedy Works, they would play this song called Fat Is In. And this was baseball player Terry Forster, who was making hay out of David Letterman calling him a fat tub of goo. And so he recorded this record where I think he just introduced it. And then the owner of the Comedy Works did the song.

He would perform it? No, it was a record. They were just playing. Oh, okay. Someone even had the goal. You call me a big, fat tub of goo. So this is somebody who held a tape recorder up to... Yeah.

Well, they held it up a few houses away. This is not an official... My neighbor keeps playing this song. Listen. I don't feel like Terry Forrester uploaded this. Chocolate cone. Instead of chocolate cone. And so the owner of the comedy works, this is him?

Yes. It's pretty good. It's in. Don't be thin. I can't. And so they would play this at the end of every show? I played at the end of the show, yeah. After the show is over.

And that was the quality of the recording. That was what? The quality of the recording. But how confusing to the audience. Yes, it was recorded into a waste paper basket. How confusing to the audience who doesn't know the connection of the owner of the comedy works did this? Right. Where suddenly they see a great comedy show.

Yeah. And they're getting up to leave and suddenly, fat is in. They're like, they're absolutely not paying attention. Oh, okay. I don't think anyone ever registered that this song was playing

except the comics. Can we talk about waste paper basket? Yeah. Yeah. Let's do it. Garbage basket. Trash can. Waste basket.

You never heard garbage basket before. Is that another thing? Garbage. Pail, I've heard. Garbage pale. Garbage pale. I've only heard garbage pale in reference to the kids. Waste paper basket.

It's so specific. It's only for waste paper. Yeah. Trash receptacle. Bin. Dumpster. There's too many names. Dumpster, I think, was the first one to do the thing where they took the

vowel away. Oh. That's dumpster. D-U-M-P-S-T-R. What's that? What's a dumpster? No, I know what a dumpster is, but I don't know what D-M-P-S-T-R. That's how it's spelled.

No, it's not. Yes, it's a brand name. Dumpster is a brand. Oh, it's a brand. But a dumps. We were saying, what's dumpster? And you're going, it's dumpster. Well, you also were like, you don't know what.

a dumpster is when we're asking what dumpster is. And then we're like, yes, we do. But you're going like, do you have M-S-T-R? And I'm like, but what's that? But my confusion's not crazy. No, it is. But you were just saying, what's, but what's dumpster with no E? A dumpster is with an E? What is, it's not? Lowercase D. Lowercase D with an E-R. But that is now like a Kleenex thing because the first probably. But I also cannot find anything. It's the brand name of dumpsters. Did that clear it up for you? No.

Dumpsters like outside bins. Yes. Whoever invented that called it the dumpster. I've never heard of that. Now you have. There is no information regarding this on the internet anywhere. Oh my God. Dumpster brand.

That's weird. So I'm a little. So do you think I dreamed this? Maybe. This isn't real. Because we were talking about Grindr a couple episodes back. No, but dumpster with an E. That's where you have sex in a dumpster.

With an E. Like the normal way of spelling it. The dumpster. Is Kleenex. It is like that. The term is a genericized trademark of dumpster, an American brand named for a type of mobile garbage bin, okay? But it had an E.

It did. It was spelled the same way. Oh, I apologize. Ping pong is a trademark. But they did it with a capital D. Sure. Yeah. Ping pong with no hyphen is a trademark. Ping pong with no hyphen is a non-trademark term for table tennis.

Fuck off. So this is all, these are all names that might surprise you. Let me see about this. That's bad trademarking when you're, when you don't. cover the hyphen part of it. And you let anyone else just use it without a hyphen. The person at the trademark place is like, do you want this

hyphen? You sure? No. You don't want to cover it without the hyphen. It's only one more dollar. I was about to read you some more. I saw Frisbee as one of them, but then now I have to subscribe to the Orlando Sentinel. Sign up for it. No. Orlando Sentinel, you're out of your mind. What are they called again where it's the

there's a term for it? Where the, like Kleenex. Dumpster. Here, brands that are like Kleenex that are so common they become words. Is there genericized? Escalator. That one is going to surprise you.

Escalator. With no A. The term escalator was coined by Charles Seaburgerer who partnered with Otis Elevator Co. To create the first commercial. Imagine being one of those two fucking weirdos. Seaburgerer? What? Band-aid, of course.

Chapstick. Coooo-Tips. Cachoozy. Popsicle. That's a little surprising. The girl who's hard to get. J-cozy. Frisbee.

Zambon. Zamboony. That makes sense. Xerox. Yeah. Taser. Chlorox. Apex.

Hydrops. I guess I didn't know till recently. Oh, I can't wait to get home to eat some hydrox. That's honestly, it's like, it sounds like a cleaning product. I didn't know until recently that laser is an acronym. Light and sound equals Rave. Equals Rave. Light and sound equals Rave.

Oh, my God. Have you seen that they're bringing back the. Motorola razor phone, which was a phone I had a million years ago. I want, I loved my, I loved my, I loved my Hot Pink one. It cost $200, which was disgustingly steep at the time. Yeah. It's a flip phone. It's a flip phone.

Now it's still a flip phone. It was the flip phone as far as I'm concerned. I think I want it. I think about it sometimes. Maybe you'll make enough money to get one. Someday. I will, the problem is I'm so tapped in with his iPhone situation. I know. But I really love the idea of closing my little flip phone and tossing.

It's just such a nostalgia. And tossing in the trash. It's my bag. It's such a nostalgic feeling that I want. I loved it and I wonder if I could regain my T9 texting skills. I don't think you need it though because I think it's a smart screen. No. Yeah.

I do miss buttons. I miss buttons. Do you think you'd ever get a dumb phone? Maybe. I tell you what, I'm getting kind of a, I'm weaning myself off of my watch because I'm sick of the. Yeah, you did mention this. Yeah, I just don't like it anymore. Well, you want to wear like a regular watch.

Yeah, I loved watches. And it is fun. I think watch is a style choice. Yeah, exactly. And it is like app. The Apple watch to me is not like my style, but I like, I have a different band. Yeah, I got different bands. It's happened with Coolup and as well as you, Paul, where you'll check your watch because you get an email and I will assume like you're out of time or you're like.

It's distracting to also be able to get an email while doing something. Yeah, I don't want that. I don't need it. Yeah. I want to get all my emails at like. like 8 p.m. every day, like the whole days. Just sending to me all at once. Yeah.

What about? And I'll take care of that. 9 a.m. No, then I have to get back to everyone all day. What's this other game that you guys are playing with the circles and the, what the fuck is that? Oh, you'd love it. Strands.

Strands. I don't love it. I'm struggling with it. Today's was hard. I didn't do it today yet, but yesterday I did it with no hints. That was the first time that happened. I was pretty proud. And I got the symbolism or whatever.

The spanogram. The spanogram. What is the. It's a word search, my dear boy. But you don't know what the words are. Have you ever searched for words? I've been a loss for them. So it's a, it's a, what it looks like to me is a pile of gobbledygook.

Okay. Where I'm like, what is this? I can't see anything. There's a, the title of the strand is called something like. The first time it happened, I was like, am I beautiful minding right now? Because you are seeing the words. I'm seeing all these like just gobbledygook in front of my head. I thought that was like a, you were hitting on someone.

Am I beautiful minding right now? I don't like. Or are you. You have a beautiful body right now? I almost gave up. Or will you hold it against me right now? Yesterday was the first time I could see the words pretty quickly. Yeah, me too.

And the first word I guess was one of the real words. And so then I was like, oh, I think I get what the theme is. Today I needed two or three hints. I saw you had a little light bulbs there. Yeah. It's in beta and I don't think it's ready for prime time. Well, the numbers one was in beta and I used to play it. And then they...

What's the numbers on? It was where you have to figure out, like, they give you six numbers and then they give you the target number and you have to figure out how to add and multiply and divide the numbers, your six numbers to reach that target number. Oh my God. But it was in beta forever and then then I went back on it and it was like beta has now concluded. And they never did nobody like that. Yeah, no one liked it. This looks ridiculous. I also don't like the the the, the, um, score sharing. It just doesn't it's not as viral as connections or as word. Yeah. It doesn't really give you any sort of like idea of what happened. Yeah. We were in the word old rut for a while where it was

like we were automatically sending each other wordels. Yeah, we were really good. And then I think Paul's trying to break the chain. He's going, we're not going to keep sending connections every day. And then we went, we'll still keep going, but you don't have to play. But now you're adding stickers on top of our scores. Yeah, as a protest. As a protest.

Why? We're already protesting by not doing it. We wanted to confront you. Why? Why? Because I don't care, man. This is an intervention. Why?

I don't care. Why? Read your letters. Go ahead. Read your letters. Letters. No, if this is an intervention, read your letters to me. Okay.

Oh, okay. Paul? Yeah. It really, really hurt me that you put a sticker over Scott's score. It's the first draft. It was the icing on the cake. It was the cherry on the top. So you liked it.

It was the. Iceing on cakes is pretty good. Yeah. It's maybe better than the cake. It was the last straw. Oh, that sounds bad. But still, you got a straw. It hurt me so bad that I didn't know what you got on your score, but you were

pasting a sticker over his score. I didn't have a score. This is my letter. Would you please listen to the letter without interjecting? Listen without prejudice. Is that what you're saying? Sure, yeah. Part one.

The end. Was that a part one? Oh, shit. I was so close to the end. I really wish I'd say anything. Lauren. Volume one. What are you going to read yours?

Oh. Yeah. That's in your letter? Yeah. What are you going to read yours? Yeah. That was my P.S. She anticipated everything.

Oh, wow. I said, the end. What are you going to read yours? Paul, your friendship means the world to me. You've been there for me through thick and through thin. I should have said stuff like that. Yeah, you really should. And now I want to be there for you in your time of need.

You fucking jerk. Hey. Hey. It's your letter. This is my letter. I have to listen without prejudice, volume one. Stop putting your fucking stickers over my scores that Lauren wants to know. if she can do better than me.

I just want to know if I could do better. If I could do fewer light bulbs. She could have today because I had two or three light bulbs. We'll see. We'll see. I'm going to do it later, okay? Today didn't make any sense. All you have to do is long hold the sticker. It might make sense to me.

I finally figured it out like an hour later. I was like, what does that clue even mean? Let me give it a glance. Give it a little quick glan. Take a look. Do you know, I've been trying to think of someone's last name. This is somebody I used to work with many years ago. And I can't remember her last name, but when I try to think of it, paired with her first name, my mind always goes to the last name, Glancy, which is someone else I worked with.

I tried to think of someone that I know very well yesterday. And I was like, what is their name? I can't, their first name. Wasn't me. Yeah. I knew it. I've been trying to you guys are for this whole podcast. I've got good branding.

Yeah. Yeah, your PFT thing. Yeah. That whole thing is like good brandy. I didn't even, it wasn't even my idea. Whose was it? I don't know. People have always been calling me that.

Yeah. Yeah. People throughout my life have called me lapy, lapkis. People call me by my last name a lot. Yeah. You got one of those last names. Yeah, but I, I've never thought of it that way. I'm always surprised by it.

Not always, but it's just. I call you Lapsie sometimes. Yeah. That's, that's Australian. Lapsie. Lapsie. Lapsie. Lapsie.

I was tough. Lola. See. I'm just trying to do every vowel like they do. Can we talk about Australian traders finally? Reality weekend. No. Why can't I talk about it?

You can. Thank you. Scott, shut up. Thank you. Paul, go. Wait, because you haven't watched it yet? I haven't watched it. Then I'm not going to.

Then I won't talk about. Australian traders, I've only heard it just in passing. Because Mike watched it. Yeah. Kangaroos, etc. Five episodes in? No kangaroos so far. Interesting.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I thought it was a bold choice. I would assume it would be all kangaroos, but you're saying none? No, it's people. How do they keep the kangaroos out of the shot? Yeah. I don't know what they do.

Is there a kangaroo? You can't hear them trying to get it. Kangaroo wrangler going like, stay back. Kangarang, yeah. Kangarang is there? Oh, he's great. He's the best out of it. Kangarangler.

I don't, the host is the least in fun of the hosts so far. Tough. You don't, I don't know him. Is he a Scottish? They're there. No, he is Australian. See, that's the thing. Like, USA traders, you got a Scottish guy.

It should always be someone from a different country. Oh, interesting. You know, to add, like, a bit of mystique. Yeah, like, get an American over there. Yeah. Oh, what's more mysterious? What if it was like a French person that hosted the UK one? Well, because it gives the sort of the air of like, we're in a game that I am leading you.

You are traitors. Like, like, Alan Cumming's accent is so it doesn't a lot. Meanwhile, if you're just Australian, it's like, oh, so you're just some guy that couldn't let down the street? Yeah. It does take away a little bit of the, like, sort of gameplay mystique. They're also in the Australian one. They're in a hotel instead of a castle. And they're...

Instead of... Although, it does seem like they actually stay there, whereas in the castle... Yeah, you can tell in USA, they never stay in the actual place. Well, in the USA one, they don't acknowledge that they don't stay there. But in the UK one, it's like, okay, the cars are taking you away now. You can't be here anymore. I guess one thing that is not explained that I wouldn't mind being explained is where they go and how they're separated so that they never know who the traitor is. Would you like to know?

You know? Yes. Oh, okay, sure. They essentially stay at a Holiday Express or whatever by the airport. Well, I hope it's not that bad. They're sequestered, like, jury style. Yeah. And they can't talk to each other.

Can't talk to each other. So they bring them food and shit, but they can't see each other talk to each other. And like, so I guess they must be on different floors. And so you're not hearing a door slam at 8 p.m. You're like, oh, there goes. goes so and so. A traitor. You're not here. Yeah. Yeah. We killed another one. We are the traitors. Okay, we have to go. We'll be right back. And this is very exciting. We have a very exciting three-term. Is it time? Yeah, it's time. All right. I'm so excited.

I've been wanting to make our living space feel a bit more finished. And one thing that was missing was a good end table. I found one on Wayfair.

We need to, okay. So, hey, this is the three challenge. We're setting up right now. We're doing the Pepsi challenge. Paul was gracious enough to. go buy a market on the way home? Did you go on the way home, Paul? And he picked up four different types of cola, including Coke and Pepsi.

Now, if I may remind you a couple of weeks ago, Lauren, we talked about the Pepsi challenge, and Lauren was incredulous thinking that anyone could not know the taste of Coke. I know, and I'm getting scared now, of course. She knows the taste of Coke like the back of her hand, she says. But I haven't had it. My most recent sip was at Christmas. Oh, now she's backing down a little bit.

No, but I am saying my most recent sip was at Christmas. And then I was like, I actually was like, everyone was drinking Coke and I was like, I want one. And then it was so strong to me that I actually backed off. Right. Okay. So now what we're doing is Paul is pouring. And Paul, do you want to say what the brands are? Can I turn around now?

No. Okay. But do you want to say what the brands are? Yes. Jesus. Give you two seconds. Multitasking. 1001, 1002.

We of course have Coke. We have. Pepsi. We also have Boilins, cane cola, and we have Phentiman's curiosity. Those are too much like fentanyl. Random. Yeah, don't touch you. What's the, what's the one to be called? Boylins, that's a, is that a market? I don't know. I've heard of it, but

okay, don't remember what it is. It's from the Boylan's bottling company. So here's the things we're going to do. We're going to first say which one we like best out of the taste test challenge. That's the spirit of the Pepsi challenge, the original Pepsi challenge. was just to say which one you like best. Scott, your glasses are ready? I can turn around? Yes. Let me know.

Hopefully you cannot see the writing through there. I cannot see the right. Okay, good. Yes, you may turn around. Wait, am I going to be able to see what his answers are and when he's getting wrong? Yes. Yes. Okay.

Just making sure that's okay. So we're going to go, me, then Paul, then Lauren. So we're going to do two things. Which we like best? The Spirit of the Pepsi Challenge. And then which is Coke. Okay. We don't have to identify the other ones.

No. Okay. I think that's fair. We can extra credit if we want. But okay. All right. So we're going for the first glass. Taking a sip.

Interesting. He finds it interesting. A little bit of caramel. Second glass. A little bit of caramel. I'm going to do a photo so we can post it. Oh. Gosh.

Okay. That one got him a little bit. Wow. Mm-hmm. Non-committal judgment. Mm-hmm. Don't like that. Ooh, he doesn't like it.

Okay. I have my answer. Okay. Okay. Which one is your favorite? Favorite is this one. Okay. And which one is Coke? Is this?

Do we tell him? Yes, we do. Yeah. Scott? Yes. You did not guess your favorite one correctly. What do you mean? Your favorite was Boylan's cola.

Yes. Really? And you identified Coca-Cola as Pepsi Cola. It was Pepsi. It was Pepsi. It was Pepsi. And which one did I not like? That was.

That was. Curiosity Cola. Okay, so the first one was Coke. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, the Boylands is delicious. Don't describe anything. Okay.

Lauren, you're next. Okay, I can't wait. I'm going to, Lauren's turning away. Lauren's turning away. This is so exciting. And now I get a peek behind the curtain. This is so exciting. I'm really, I'm just, I can't believe it.

Yeah. This is one of the most exciting things we've ever done on Freedom. It is. It is. This is, saying we suck. because this sucks. It's one of the most exciting. None of us like it.

I'm really excited because I genuinely don't know what's going to happen right now. I really don't know. Yeah. Wow. This is very exciting. Paul is pouring right now. Tell me when you're ready to go. Yeah.

Of course. Filling air. We're just going to finish and then just never let you know that you can turn around. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay, okay, okay.

We have one more, Lauren, and then you'll be able to turn around. Paul's pouring skills, by the way, are exceptional. He's not leaving a drop on the table. He's twisting the rim. Thank you. As you would when you're pouring wine. Got to twist the rim. In order to make sure not to spill any drops.

All right. Lauren, you're ready. Okay. Don't drink those tissues. They're in front of one of the glasses. Oh, it seems like cotton. Okay. Okay.

All right, going for the first one. I'm so nervous Remember how confident you were That you knew which Oh, that tastes like fucking ass Okay That's horrible Oh she's palette cleansing

With some water It's got to be curiosity Hmm interesting You'll see Okay She's texting the second one I don't like that Oh she didn't like it

Okay Didn't like it Okay Okay She's trying I'm going to do water again. She's doing water again. He's doing water again.

I got to be able to. Yeah. Truly. Cleensed the palate. Taking the serious. Taking the sip of number three. Okay. Okay.

Now number four is approaching her lips. She's taking no water in between. No. She puts it down and now it takes the water. She almost slipped up. Slipped up. I've got it 100%. She's got it 100%.

Now, tell us your favorite. So the Pepsi challenge, my favorite is this one. Okay. Okay. This one's Coke. Okay. You fucking nailed it. Yes.

Yes. Your favorite was Pepsi. My favorite quote unquote is Pepsi because that's the Pepsi challenge is. I'm supposed to make that my favorite. No, no. You're supposed to say what your favorite is. You have to be honest about this. Oh, my favorite was cool.

You're not trying to get on camera like I was at the Magic Mountain. That's what I thought the Pepsi challenge was. No. No. What is your favorite? Well, whatever. I guessed him right. Yeah, but what is your favorite?

Coke is my favorite. Really? Okay. Jesus Christ. Let me go back to the well. Hold on. Yeah, I love the Coke. Okay.

Cherry Pepsi again, hold on. All right, are you going to play? Were you good mother? Was I right that this was curiosity? Yes. I got them all right. You got them all right.

Yeah, you did. Guys, come on. I deserve applause. But then you didn't play it the way that we said we were going to play. So what. So got it right. All right. Mix those up for Paul.

So you know what to do? I'm going to look at my phone. This is some great phone time. So you're leaving me to do the play-by-play? How can I do the play-by-play? You can talk about what's... I'm waiting for the thing to happen. What about talking about what's outside the glass?

What's outside the glass? God, that's funny. That scene is so funny. Though, what's in the box? What's in the box? Because you know it was like take 112. Yeah. And he's just doing it different just to do it different.

What's in the box? Does that make you happy, Mr. Fincher? Oh, yeah, it does. I'm going to put that one in. Don't. Please don't put that one in. Everyone's going to make fun of me. It's a good movie.

Brad Pitt's very dumb in that movie. Yeah. Like that character. He used to play dumb guys very well. Yeah. It's not really, I mean. He kind of still does. In one spot of time in Hollywood, he's pretty dumb.

I didn't think he was dumb in that. I thought he was just like a very simple living person in a way. Right. Do you know what I mean? I do know what you mean, Paul. There's no pretence. Wow, that's a heavy poor. All right, Paul, I believe we're ready.

You may make sure that's obscured. Yes, very good. Hold on one second. Okay, very good, very good. All right, Paul, we're ready for you to turn around. All right. Oh, my God, I'm so excited. We have more glasses in front of you.

Yeah, let me take a picture because this is actually a better angle for the picture. Yeah. The color is all is pretty consistent. It is, honestly. It's pretty confusing. All right. I'm going to go from left to right. Left to right.

Much like we. Read Books in America, not Japan. He's taking the sip of the first one. Took a healthy sip. He's tasting a little bit on his lips. He says, hmm, after the first one. Now, he does not have a palate cleanser. No.

No, not everyone's so lucky. I forgot to bring my bottle. Yeah. So he's going straight to number two. Took the sip of that, nods to himself. As if he knows exactly what that is. He's taking a sip of the little. third one, tasting it on his lips.

Tasting it on his lips. Licking seductively. Winking at us? Guess which one it is, I guess? Crooking one finger and a, come here. Come hither. He's taking his sip of the fourth one and he grimaces. That's curiosity.

We do. We all know a curiosity. That's not the challenge. That's not the way. It's not the curiosity call it challenge. I just wanted to call out by here. No, yeah. In the spirit of the Pepsi challenge.

That one's really got a lot going on. Yeah. In the spirit of the Pepsi Challenge, which is your favorite? I'm going to, I think, oh. If you need to retake sips, I might need to retake sips. Retake some sips. Because I feel like I know what these are. And so these, I'm a little more.

Okay. Retake some sips. He's taking a sip at the first one. He thinks he, well, he pointed out what the fourth one was. Well, he got very seductive on that one. Yeah. but he's taking a sip of one and three. He says he knows what two and four are.

Let's get some guesses out here. Four, he says is curiosity. This is my favorite. Okay. And this one's Pepsi. Wow. That's your favorite. You're supposed to know what Coke is, not what Pepsi.

This one's Coke. Your favorite that you said is Coke is Pepsi. The true Pepsi Challenge. Pepsi is Coke. You got it wrong. I got Pepsi Challenge. You both did. No, I said Boylands is my favorite.

Okay. Sorry to disappoint you. I know this one's Boylands, but I did not like it as much as the other kids. I thought it was, I usually like Boilis. This curiosity is wild. It's really bad. Was so much going on. I couldn't find R.C.

Yeah. R.C. would have been a good Pepsi comparison. Yeah, probably. I haven't had R.C. in a million years. Me neither, but I, my memories. Royal Crown. Royal Crown. Of course.

Elegant. This was a blast. I have to say. It was fun. Can I finish off the Boylands? if no one's going to have it. Yeah, give me the rest of that bot. Stans for a bottle.

Stands for it. Yeah, short for that. That was really fun. How was really fun. And now, Lauren, you know what the Pepsi challenge is. And I know that I know the difference between Coke and Pepsi and I was right. And you were right. And you still like Coke, which is surprising.
