Lemonada.
I don't know about you, but I like keeping my money where I can see it.

Hi, it's Julia Louis Dreyfus here, and I can't wait for you to hear our new episode of Wiser
Than Me with Cindy Lopper on Amazon Music.
Cindy may be a girl who just wants to have fun, but for 40 years she has brought
playfulness and a dash of punk to some serious activism. We talk about her,
lifelong LGBTQ plus advocacy, her astonishing music career, and pick up a whole lot of wisdom
along the way. Listen now only on Amazon music included with Prime.
You had so much time to hang out. Oh my God, I had the best time.
What did you do? Look how tan I am. Wow. Paul got here early, and he also said all three
three freedoms early. Were you just in the pool for the whole song? Yes. Yeah.
Paul, how early did you arrive to the recording today? How early did you arrive?
I'll put it at 90 minutes.
That's about 90.
Door was locked.
Door was locked.
It was like, what the fuck?
Which you sent me an irritated text.
Knock knock.
How do you know it was irritated?
Because I take everything, every text is irritated.
Ah, that's a lot.
So what were you doing at 10 a.m?
That you couldn't just do an episode with him to sit.
I should have.
It leaves spaces for you to talk.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We should do one episode like that where one of us is scripted and the other is not.
And we never say who it is.
Great.
I think it'd be pretty clear.
Can you just hear the shuffling of papers?
That would be the only clue.
I kind of do like that idea.
Oh, thank you so much.
I think we should script a whole episode and not tell people that it's scripted.
Yes.
I don't like that idea.
That sounds like work.
Oh, yeah.
What if we just record one, write it all out, and then re-record it, reading our lines.
I'm sorry, that's funny.
But it'll hit a very short.
stilted way. No, do as best you can.
I think, I've done that several times with
Rob Hewbel and Tom Lennon.
You've done what?
That idea where they reenact
the conversation they had on the first episode of comedy bang.
Really?
From a transcript?
From a transcripts.
I'm so sick of my ideas being done already.
I know, the Simpsons did it.
But what if we did it like we're reading court transcripts?
Yeah, yeah.
And we say, Paul.
Yeah, we say our names before we say our lines.
Paul.
We say our names before.
we say our lines.
Yeah.
Paul, you don't laugh during a court transcript.
Paul, you don't laugh during a court transcript.
Lauren.
What's the funniest court transcript?
Oh, I, there is the one.
When that juggling guy jumped off into a crocodile's mouth and he farted on his way down.
I got to look it up.
There's a great one.
But I forget, you're a big true crime buff.
I love, well, because I watched Dateline.
I don't really anymore.
You know, I used to like Dateline a lot.
and I don't know what changed,
but Mike really doesn't care for that kind of true crime.
And so that's part of it.
What kind does he like?
Well, I don't think he's really into like the bite-sized husband-killed-wife storylines.
Bight-sized?
You know, like I sort of like...
Like a quiby.
He doesn't even listen to true to, what is it called?
True Crime.
I just started almost had true life.
But he listens more to like last podcast on the left,
but they get into like stuff like that,
but then they'll delve very deeply into it.
Are you sure he doesn't just listen to, like,
chess moves.
He does do that.
Over and over.
He watches chess games.
Night two, pawn three.
Literally.
I don't know what's going on.
He's very excited because one of his guys is in the World Cup.
He's guys.
Wait, is in what World Cup?
Chess.
Oh.
Who were his guys?
Magnet.
Oh, he would laugh because I don't know.
Magnus.
Magnet?
Magnus.
And then the one name that I'd have to read out loud.
I had dinner with Mike Castle last night.
You did.
How was that?
My Castle and Joey Greer.
We had a wonderful time.
He said he had a great time.
It was really fun.
I thought, I was going to text you and say you're going to stand them up because you've been avoiding Joey's face times every time you guys.
That would have been that book.
Yeah, it would have been an abrick or a book.
Well, I fool around sometimes.
I do.
When a girl seduces me and tells me all of these hot stories and dirty things.
Ew.
Tells me how much she wants to suck up.
There's a really funny.
I'm just looking for it.
Did you enjoy the food?
But that wasn't him, was it?
No, that was someone reading it.
Do you know, I did enjoy the food.
Oh, here it is.
Okay.
Can I say?
More on that later.
Okay.
Well, I fool around sometimes I do.
When a girl seduces me and tells me all of these hot stories and dirty things.
Why are you bringing us up right now that you want to talk about what girl?
We talk about the funniest.
No, I'm just acting as if it's you doing it.
So a girl seduces me and tells me all of these hot stories and dirty things and tells me how much she wants to suck on me and takes my shoes off and licks my feet and touches me.
No one says someone wants to suck on me.
Just say penis.
my shoes off and lick my feet?
Say penis.
Say, yeah.
When I'm in a limousine, she takes off all of her clothes.
No one wants to suck Donald Sterling's toes.
The limo driver said, what is going on?
He'll lick his feet, though.
And she started sucking me on the way to Mr. Coon's house.
And I thank her.
I thank her for making me feel good.
Stop saying she's sucking me.
Sir, the question was, is this your handwriting?
I remember that.
No, that's really what I remember that.
I remember that.
What a freak.
I feel remiss because I don't.
think I've thanked enough of my sexual partners for the sex.
From when you're like, thanks.
Well, I think you should always say thank you for sucking me.
Everyone I've ever had sex with.
For getting me up here.
I appreciate it.
For getting it.
You didn't even help me getting up here.
I just appreciate it.
If I didn't say so before, I'm saying it now.
Wait.
So, yes, I like the food.
It was, it was very rich.
I had a very rich, a cavitelli with a lamb ragu.
Without naming this restaurant because I just don't feel like it.
they do have a menu that's handwritten and the lighting is very dark.
Now, I find those to be issues.
Okay, what's worse?
Dark handwritten menu or QR code menu?
At that point, I'd rather have a QR code.
I'm kind of sick of QR's.
I'm kind of sick of QR's, but I'd rather that than read a shaky handwritten in the dark.
I also went to a place the other day that didn't even say anything.
They just sat you down.
There was a little tiny thing on the table that if you weren't looking for it.
Yeah, on a shelf.
Hey.
Hey, check out this QR code.
I thought that QR code was a little pimp.
It was just a little tiny thing that you could miss if you weren't looking for it.
And then no one ever came by for another 10 minutes.
And it was like, oh, I guess here's.
They never said like, there's the QR code.
They need to say.
Because also QR codes pre-pandemic were like something you had completely ignored.
And they were like maybe to enter a sweepstakes.
The absolute last thing I'm going to do is point my phone.
I'm not doing that.
fucking shit.
Now it's like we're
expected to do every fucking day.
And I don't,
but you know what I don't like
is like I don't like looking at my phone
when I'm with a friend.
So if I'm looking at the menu on the phone,
it feels like I'm looking at something else.
Because then you love doing one over the net.
You switch over to Instagram.
I start liking.
I start texting people.
Did you see earbuds in?
Yeah.
Jim Cavizel in his intros for that movie.
He just did.
Cabozel.
Cabazzal.
Has a Pepper Incorporate.
We're going to do it.
We're going to QR it.
Um, he's like, okay, uh, I know this is,
he's like, you, you wonder how to get involved and help out.
I know this is weird.
I know it's weird to do in a theater, but just take out your phone and point it at this
QR code down here at the bottom.
I know it's a strange thing to do, but you can, it's okay to do it.
Oh, fuck strange.
What?
Where is this happening?
You know, at a movie theater?
Yeah, the movie you just put out the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
Q movie.
I don't know.
You put out a Qonon movie?
Yeah.
Boy, oh boy.
Is this real?
Yeah.
Boy, oh boy.
And I made like $100 million or something.
Is this real?
Yes.
Did he do this with his one friend, Mel Gibson?
I don't know what this is.
It's a movie about...
A documentary?
No, it's a fictional movie about...
And pardon me if I get any of these details wrong.
Pardon me.
I'll excuse you.
It's about a real life person who, in the movie, he goes around saving children from
child trafficking.
Oh, yes.
In real life, the person didn't do any of that.
Okay.
And, but, but it's, it's, it's a QAnon movie that's meant to, uh, traumatize people to
child trafficking so much that they get involved in QAnon, essentially.
Yeah, and they just start shooting people all over the place.
Yes, exactly.
So, but anyway, he, he, but in real life, he did not save children, but he did traffic children.
Yes.
Something like that.
Yeah.
Nice.
The guy who, who invested was the biggest investor in this one.
Allegedly.
People who...
Sure.
People hide in plain sight.
It happens all the time.
I'm hiding in plain sight right now, and you guys are looking right now.
Whoa.
I found you.
You know, Mike and I started watching recently, which is almost a true crime doc, was this sort of
docu series about glee and the sort of like the curse of the cast.
The curse of the cast of glee.
Has more than one person died?
Yes.
Yes.
How many?
Two?
Three.
That is a curse.
Yeah.
Wait.
I don't even want.
Speaking of Mike, I had dinner with him last night.
Of course you did.
Yeah.
And how was that?
It was very good.
With Joey Greer.
The food is very rich.
We had great time.
Food was very rich.
Afterwards went to see a show.
You did.
He came home.
Yes.
Chris Smith, very funny actor.
Did this show called acting for a time such as this.
I've seen your post and I really want to see this.
That guy's really funny.
This show is Walt Wall to All laughs and I was laughing so, like deep laughing so much that I only threw up.
That's the best ever.
Because of the dinner.
Oh my God.
Oh.
Not because I'm enjoying.
Not because of how funny it was.
No, it was funny, but usually I can find things funny without
funny plus throwing up.
Funny plus dinner equals throw up.
But I was really like, what do I do here because I am still enjoying the show?
Yeah.
What, how, is there a way I can curb this feeling?
So tragedy plus time equals comedy.
Yeah.
Comedy plus dinner equals vomit.
Yeah.
Wow.
That makes sense.
So tragedy plus time plus dinner equals vomit.
Mm-hmm.
Paul, you're falling asleep.
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up.
Wake up, Paul.
Hey, wake up, Paul.
Hey, Polly.
It was going on, Paul.
Oh, my God.
Am I still asleep?
Hey, Paul.
Were you friends from your dreams.
But you look like Scott and Lauren.
Well, that's what you think.
You only know it's from your dreams.
Because you can only imagine it's looking like someone you know.
Yeah.
Who else do you know?
I'd love to look like them.
Who else do I know?
You know anyone?
I look at a question.
Name Janie now.
Name a hundred people you know.
No, I don't know him.
I know of him.
You're awake.
What, Paul, Paul, Paul, are you right?
The son of the Christ.
He woke up singing passion of the Christ.
Oh, my God, again.
Normal.
Normal.
I have to stop doing this.
Normal?
Normal.
So cute.
Who is Nirmal?
She's the gray cat from Garfield.
Is it a she?
I didn't know Nirmal.
Had a gender.
Nermal's his girlfriend.
I'm going to look up Nermel's.
What are you talking about?
Lauren.
Get it, get the facts going.
Normal is the,
is the cutest cat that Garfield's jealous of.
Male.
Nermal is a small gray
male.
Let me see.
Let me see.
With thick eyelashes.
Show me the picture.
There's no picture.
This is words.
There's no picture.
Do you want?
There's a picture.
Google didn't serve up a picture.
In a shocking development,
Garfield has been converted.
to words. I'm sorry, that looks like a romantic
image with the hearts. The popular comic
strip will from now on just be
Jim Davis writing down what he thinks
happens to Garfield.
And not funny either.
Garfield meets Norma, male cat
who has long eyelashes.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. The spreaders
are saying. This is the live read of Garfield
comics. This is huge.
This is huge.
What? His dick? Yeah.
Some fans have mistaken
Nermal for a female kitten because of his eyelashes.
His seemingly feminine personality.
And the feminine sounding tone of his voice on Garfield and Friends.
Okay.
How many signs do we need?
Hold on.
Jim Davis often gives younger characters eyelashes,
including Garfield himself in the Garfield segment of Garfield,
his nine lives and Orson at the beginning of the U.S. Acres comic strip.
Okay.
The Garfield segment of Garfield.
Yeah.
The Latin American dub of Garfield and Friends.
This is maybe what you were watching.
Normal renamed Telma and his gendered
changed to female after season one telma was changed back to normal despite this normal's gender only
changed back to male near the end of this series okay the interesting thing there is the reason why
not the timeline why did they change it why do they change it back because the eyelashes I think
because people were just like who is that's not a guy they were like that's telma okay yeah that's telma
it's not normal I think it should be illegal for for normal to change to telma normal also
And vice versa.
Don't be a stop,
Normal.
To me,
Nirmal's a woman's name.
Yeah.
It's a beautiful name.
It's stunning.
I love it.
You almost named Holly Nermal.
I almost did.
But then I learned in the future
that it was actually a boy cat,
and I thought that might get a little confusing,
so I just didn't.
And then you memory wiped yourself until right now.
Mm-hmm.
And here I am.
But things are so fluid nowadays.
I think normal could be a genderless name.
Normal could be whatever he wants to be,
or she or they.
Well, yeah.
But I think, you know, what it is as a child when I'm watching a show,
they're showing a long-eylashed cat that looks female.
When I'm a child, I'm watching a show?
I see a long-eyelish cat?
In this house?
It's a female.
Yeah.
There is a long Reddit thread, Nirmals' gender debate.
Well, Google solved it in one fell swoop.
But what do they say on it?
Do that.
Google solves it when it's self-s-swoop.
See what comes up.
Keep the conversation civil, though, and no downvoting.
No downvoting
You should be allowed to downvote
You can just say it's a bad opinion
I refuse to believe
Nirmal is a boy
Boy this is a lot of things
I'm getting on there later
The six most misgender characters on TV
When was this written?
Pat
Okay this is three months ago
The six most misgendered characters on TV
Okay
Oh only six months ago
Who do you think is in there
Hooty?
Bluey
Blue who do you
What do you think Bluey is?
Bluey is female, but it's very easy to call bluey male because blue dog.
Blue is a male color.
It's a blue dog.
Yeah.
It's just easy.
Okay, tails in Sonic the Hedgehog.
Is a woman?
Sure.
I don't know.
So they don't tell you what it is?
I don't know.
Don Draper.
People just make the mistake.
Because people think it's Dawn Draper.
Don Draper.
Okay.
Is her full name, Dondripper.
Don Dipper.
Don Dipper.
Why?
What?
Go on.
Why does that sound any more like a...
Don Dripper?
Oh, it's a beautiful name.
A woman's name.
Oh, hello, Don Draper.
The voyage of the Dondripper.
You were close.
Blue in Blue's Clues.
Is...
I don't know.
Oh, is in fact a girl puppy.
It doesn't have, like, facts about it underneath.
I have to read paragraphs.
It doesn't even list which gender it is.
It's a bad article.
Spot in TNG.
No one knows what that is.
The cat of data.
Oh, sure.
Oh, yeah, that cat is often misgendered.
Tweedy Bird.
Tweety Bird is female.
At the end of the day, Tweety Bird is a male canary.
And I did it.
And I just did it.
But what happens before the end of the day?
I just did that.
Bluey from Bluey, whoa.
Thank you.
Bluey's gender is never addressed, but make no mistake,
Bluey is a girl, and so is her sister.
Bingo.
Bingo.
Well, I often say, I often will.
say, oh, oh, get blue.
She needs to. He's over there, blah, blah, blah.
And then I go, I'm misgendering blueie.
Does Holly know? Does Holly say,
mom, I hate you?
No, you know, I don't think she is on that level yet.
Are you worried about that when she's going to be like 13 or whatever?
That would hurt my feelings a lot.
But, you know.
It's going to be like slamming doors.
How many times have you told your parents you hate them?
I actually don't think that I ever said.
Ever did?
I don't know that I ever said, I hate you.
I don't think I...
I wasn't really punished in a way
where screaming at them would make sense.
Did you ever let them know?
I think I let them know.
You should tell them.
I'm on their deathbeds.
Yeah, but I hate you.
I've always wanted to tell you.
I've never really said it, but I hate you.
I know we don't talk about this much.
About feelings much.
I despise you.
Goodbye forever.
I think if you parent right, they'll never say it.
Yeah.
Interesting theory.
Yeah, if you do it perfectly.
If you do it, you just got to do a perfect game.
Should be good.
Yeah.
How hard could it be?
Because you just remember the things that you didn't like about being a kid.
And you're like, well, I will never do those things.
Exactly.
And then your child will have no problems.
And nothing you do could be annoying to them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, you know, can you picture a day when, uh, when Emmy's screaming at you and saying,
give me the fucking keys to the car, dad?
I'm not going to let her drive.
Like Martin Luther King did.
He did that.
I see a day.
When Emmy is yelling at that.
Is that his second most famous quote?
Give me the first.
fucking keys the card.
Did I say, can you see the day?
Yeah.
Well, it'll be crazy.
Guys, I have to tell you.
Reality recap.
Yeah.
Oh, I've got some updates over there.
We just finished season four of Vanderpump Rules.
Oh, my God, you're doing it.
God, you're really cranking him out.
For people, I don't, I can't remember if I've talked about this or not.
Well, you haven't talked about season four.
I can't remember the last time we recorded.
Me neither.
And we may not have been watching it then.
But friends urged us to, okay, so here's what we know about present day Fanderpup.
All we know is there's a scandal.
It's referred to as scandal vall.
So we have an idea of one person that's involved.
Do you really missed all of the news?
We had no idea.
Well, I didn't know who these people are, but I know a lot of what happened.
Do you think scandals in general will eventually be called scandal balls?
Yeah, absolutely.
Because this one's so popular.
It's just easier to say.
Yeah.
So we don't know what the scandal is.
We want to keep it that way.
We're excited that we don't know.
I want to keep it that way, dude.
I want to keep it that way, dude.
I don't know what the scandal is.
I don't want to keep it that way, dude.
Yeah, nobody, nobody tell him.
So we are watching the show.
We have a few people.
But here's my question.
You have some sussex.
Before he talks him before you talk.
There's people you are talking to.
I was trying to get him back on track,
interrupting you because you were interrupting.
I was on track.
No, no, no, no.
You're doing great.
But you have friends who've watched it who are guiding you a little bit or telling you're checking out.
That's literally what I was about to say.
But I know, but I'm going to ask you something.
You, because some people might want to know what the Scandival is so you can look for the signs earlier.
Like Mr. Rogers said.
So is that something that look for the helpers?
Signs, signs.
Oh, no, we are.
That's exactly what we're doing.
So you're trying to figure out what it is.
Yes.
But you don't want to know, because some people might think if you knew the details, that's more fun because then you can watch.
No, no.
We want to see the subtle physical.
You want to feel the full impact of it.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Because all we know is like for long time watchers of the show, it rocked their world.
Are you, are you putting guesses in and into like sealed envelopes?
Do you know what?
Yeah, of course we are.
But.
And mailing them tears.
We actually don't.
We have not discussed what we think it is.
And we don't really like, as we're watching the show, we don't say, I wonder if it has to do with that.
We, we are just, I, I think that Jane is probably doing the same thing I am, which is,
wondering internally like
does this have to there's been like a few things
where like is this the beginning of it
and then we have no but of course we have no idea
because it's not going to pay off for another
time ago yeah yeah for I'm sorry that
you know the famous quote that's
a Bitcoin already
that I don't mind looking forward
to I don't know that
I fucking hate that guy so much
he's truly terrible
and it's weird that we're
okay so we've been binging this show
and I don't think
you're supposed to watch reality TV this way.
Because it feels disgusting.
It feels disgusting that we are into it and then we keep watching it.
It feels disgusting to discuss the character's motives when they're doing something as if it's all real life.
It feels bad.
Yeah.
And it feels bad that we are sucked into it.
Yeah.
So deeply.
I find it very.
Thank you, but we're still going to do it.
I'm really sorry you're going through this.
I know I know the early Cs.
From what I hear are all about people who work at the same place, which I think is fine.
Then it becomes like none of them work there anymore.
They're all influencers.
And then it becomes the friend group in quotes.
All right.
Even though none of them...
Now you've told me too much.
Have I really?
Well, yeah.
Yeah, I think you are saying when you go and then it becomes and then it becomes...
Well, no, no.
What I'm trying to say is is like this is every reality show these days is like they
start out working together.
They call them.
And this is all of the housewives is they call themselves the friend group when it's
They don't know.
They're not a friend group.
They are people who have been put together on a TV show and they've been told that they have to call themselves the friend.
Even now at the end of season four where they are all still working in the same place, except for like one, two people, I think, don't work there anymore.
They're using the term friend group.
Right.
And a really funny thing of the one monster.
Don't kick each other.
I'm not kicking her.
I'm kicking towards her.
He's like, listen to him.
He goes, listen to him to Paul's saying.
stupid.
The one
steroid monster
named Jaxe
who said,
I'm the number one guy.
Stop acting like
you're the number one guy
in this group.
I'm the number one guy
in this group,
which is a really
funny way to think
about yourself.
Who's the number one
person in this group?
That's psychotic.
Well, it's me.
Okay.
Giving main character energy.
All right,
we have to take a break.
I don't know about you,
but I like
keeping my money where I can see it.
And that means you must not know about me.
Unfortunately, traditional big wireless characters, characters.
Well, these guys are kind of characters.
I'm talking about big wireless carriers.
They also seem to like keeping my money, too.
After years of overpaying for wireless.

Bogus fees and free perks that actually costs more in the long run.

If you know me, you know I love clothes.
I'm kind of a bit of a horse about them.
And lately, I've been more intentional
about what I wear day to day,
leaning into pieces that feel effortless,
comfortable and still put together
like my fashion idol, the late Diane Keaton.
It just makes getting dressed simpler.
Quince has been my good to,
go-to for you. The fabrics feel elevated.
The fits are flattering,
and everything just works without overthinking it.
Quince makes it easy,
refresh your every day this spring with pieces that feel as good as they look.
They use premium materials like 100% European linen, organic cotton, and ultra soft denim.
Their lightweight linen pants, dresses, and tops started $30 and are effortless,
breathable, and easy to wear on repeat.
Everything at Quince has priced 50 to 80% less than similar brands.
That sounds good.
They work directly with ethical factories and cut out the middlemen so you're paying for
quality and craftsmanship, not brand markup.
Look, Quince has been very good to me.
I just got some linen pieces that I'm going to be taking with me on the road as I go on tour this summer.
I need to be comfortable and I need to look sharp.
So I'm accomplishing both.
Thank you, Quince.

I'm Dr. Susan Swick, a child psychiatrist and the host of Talkaboutable.
This season, I'm talking with parents and experts about how we tackle the everyday challenges
of raising kids.
We'll get real about those pebble and the shoe issues we all face as parents and how to
build resilience and community through our own experiences.
Talk Aboutable Season 2 from Lemonada Media in partnership with Montage Health,
and their Ohana Center for Child and Family Mental Health is out now.
And we're back.
And I wanted to say, I went to a Dodger game the other day.
Paul, fans of baseball will be interested in this.
I won.
I went to a Dodger game recently.
Really?
Which one?
Oh.
Number...
They played...
How many games are the Dodgers played?
Number they played the Yankees?
They play 275 games a year.
Is that how?
I was watching.
And what?
How many, like, how many total?
Have they kept track of that?
The Dodgers have played, I think it's half a billion games.
Is it true?
This current team.
If you're counting Brooklyn.
This current team.
No, Lauren.
I got to look at it up.
How many games have the Dodgers won?
No, I just want to say play.
Play.
And then it says this season, no.
I just want to know.
In history.
In history, yes.
Hey, Lauren.
What are you doing?
I noticed.
I noticed something in my shoe.
I don't think there's any.
Borg is taking her shoe off,
she's rooting around in it.
Well, because I kind of noticed
there's this piece of fabric in there.
140 seasons.
There's no information regarding this.
No one has ever counted this.
We could be the first ones.
No one's ever counted it.
Somebody out there has a thing where they count them.
That's their thing.
Yes.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
These old people are freaks.
Their record is 11,310 to 9,8,8,9.
so that means that there's about 20,000 games.
So which one did you go to?
Like 20,000 and three?
It was probably 20,000.
I'll tell you something like that.
So I go to a...
Unless I let them play the game and they're like,
all running on the bases.
What's on the basels?
I didn't know what was going on at all.
I literally was like...
What's that stick there holding?
I couldn't understand the fucking score sign.
I was like, Stephanie, what is that?
It's too complicated now.
I was looking for just the score when I was there.
And I was like, where?
I feel crazy, though.
But it didn't used to be like that because I was like, I remember going to games growing up and not being confused.
No, because the guy would come out. He would take the card off, put another card on.
But the score was always pretty prominent in the old days where, and then there were a few things above it.
Now it's a ton of info that you're just trying to cars.
So many numbers.
And also don't get you starting to the ads.
I can't even.
I like when all the LED screens like switch over to one ad and it's for Forest Lawn.
The cemetery?
The cemetery? Well, in case people don't know. But also, that's crazy.
I don't need an ad for a cemetery. I'll figure it out.
Once I'm there. I'm very close.
Everyone's going to figure out where they need to go when that's going on.
Do you think I would bet baseball is the sport with the oldest fan base?
Probably. I don't...
Holo?
But...
I mean, you have to be like old and rich.
We're talking mains. We're talking baseball. We're going to be old like polo.
No, but you have to be rich.
but most people aren't rich until they're old.
Well, there's generational wealth.
Sure.
From those old rich people at the polo game.
That's exactly right.
So there must be a lot of young people there.
Who's playing?
I mean, those are the people playing.
It's literally a rich amount of school.
How old is the average polo fan?
47.
Polo magazine offers that.
The average polo fan
How old is the average baseball fan?
35 to 44.
That makes sense.
No, sorry, 25 to 34.
25 to 34.
No MLB has the oldest fans among the major sports with the average age of 57.
That's what someone else says.
Okay, then stop reading facts before you know what they are.
Learn to separate facts from fiction.
Because we just heard three different takes.
Well, those are the top three responses.
The top of the responses are every age of an adult.
MLB has the oldest
It didn't happen
Uh-uh
The average
Impossible
Do you know what I'm doing
Okay NBA
No no
No
Oh yeah yeah
That thing
That that
That John Quignonias
Or whatever that
Not him
But the guy from the 80s
Who's like
What in this unsolved mystery
Didn't happen
Is that what you're talking about
When it's like
It's all those kids
It's whatever is it?
No
No it's like
It's Jonathan Frakes
Oh yeah
Beyond Belve
Beyond Believe fact or fiction
I always love that mean
There's like a super cut of him.
Yeah, it's great.
It's just so funny when it's like a meme.
NBA is 42.
NHL is 49.
NFL is 50.
MLB 57.
Yeah, I called it.
You did call it.
Wow.
Thank you.
And Polo 47.
According to Polo, Max, it's a young man sport.
It's almost our birthdays.
It is almost our birthday.
You know, I've never got into my story.
We're September babies.
You have a birthday?
You have a story?
I was at the baseball game.
Oh.
Then what happened?
Well, I wanted to say,
I didn't know we were allowed to say
I never got to my story
Well same, I never got to my story
About reality TV, who cares?
I let so many go
Yeah, I didn't realize
Well, you'll be interested in this one.
They're sailing away.
It's not even a story.
Settle, sail away.
That's what I call Orinoco Flow.
And that's what I call Enya's Revenge.
There was a compilation CD.
That's what I call Ornoco Flow.
It was just that song.
Volume 70.
This person doesn't know about the repeat button
They think they have a compilation, but they don't.
It's like, I have this compilation of this one song.
It's just a CD single.
I think it's the same version, too.
Repeat.
No, that's what I call or her and uncle float.
She loves it so much.
We need a t-shirt, this, and then the back of just 12 tracks of orinocle flow.
I feel like now that's what I call series is disingenuous, because you would feel like the first
volume would be it.
It's like, now that's what I call music.
But who's, uh?
Well, exactly.
Because they're not.
God.
Are these supposed to be God?
Who's doing it?
Because I mean, I feel like, now that's what I call music.
That just shook my moment.
Started with like, everybody dance now.
So I'm at the baseball game.
And then what hop on?
So I'm at the baseball.
His new thing is going, what happened?
What happened?
I'm at the baseball game and I'm sitting in my seat.
Oh, my God.
You can spare us some details.
Yeah, God.
Were you wearing jeans and a t-shirt?
I'm watching the game with my eyes, occasionally blinking.
Great, I'm happy for you.
Then what?
Who are you with?
I was with.
Okay, this is all unnecessary detail.
I was with.
Okay, so we, so Kool-op was supposed to buy five tickets.
and she ended up only buying four.
Flaiming the woman.
Yeah.
The one who was supposed to buy the tickets yet.
Right.
And luckily I was like, hey, where are we sitting the night before?
And she goes, oh, let me look at the tickets.
Otherwise, we would have all, all five of us would have arrived at the place.
So if you stayed home.
So her sister stayed home.
That's all right.
Our nephew, it was our nephew and Kulap's mother.
Okay.
Kulap and I.
Okay, the four of us.
Your core four.
Core 4.
And this comes into play because I...
Much like baseball.
So it's not unnecessary information.
I bought the...
This is a side story.
I bought the...
What do you call it?
Hot dogs.
No, the...
A pennant.
The 50-50 ticket.
Oh, the 50-50?
Sure.
What does that mean?
Where they keep half the money
and they give half the money
to whoever wins.
What?
It's like an instant lottery.
Where everyone buys a ticket.
Oh, I think of the team who wins.
I'm like, why would they get the money?
Oh, yeah.
He's hilarious.
No, you pay, you pay...
We raise an additional $25,000 for the open days.
You pay $10 and you get five tickets and then...
Okay.
The team keeps $5 and the...
And whoever wins gets the other half.
The pot.
Yes, exactly.
So I was like, if I won, I was going to split it up and then I realized, oh, that would
be unfair to the sister who was going to come who didn't have the ticket.
So I was like, all right, I'll split this.
five ways. Yeah, the odds of you winning are astronomical. But then I started to think like...
Decision worthy of King Solomon himself. But then I started to think should cool up and I take one
for herself, only one chair? I would say, probably, yeah. I don't know. Anyway, I had plans to split a
five way. Oh, it was $52,000 or something like that. So I was like, oh, I'll split of five ways.
But it would make more sense for you to keep one and split of four ways though at 52. Then you're talking
What is that?
No, I think
14,000.
Anyway,
God, I don't care.
So,
so I'm,
I,
I order from a concessions person
Hot dog, please.
One of the,
no,
no.
That's what you said.
Do they sell hot dogs?
By hand?
A Dodgers game?
No, by hand.
Walking around,
walking around,
Hot dogs?
I don't think so.
They only sell,
like, stationary hot dogs,
right?
Yeah, you have to go
get a hot dog,
but I think you can get your peanuts.
Hot dogs don't come to you.
You go to them.
In,
Daja?
Hot dog.
Because then you're going like, I need relish.
I need mustard.
I need ketchup.
Yes, they did used to.
Yeah.
Those were good days.
Those were the good old days.
I'd love to have a hot dog at the Dodgers game right now.
What if I'd have some hot dogs upstairs.
What if Paul and I wrestle while you eat a hot dog?
Sure.
You're just saying I want to eat a hot dog while I watch a sport?
Why are we?
Yeah.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
So then what happened?
Because this was a tangent.
So what was the main?
So the main is that I, there's a concessions gentleman who has.
Have you done with us before?
Who has the.
That was a delicious tangent.
I would say, if you get four tangents, by the way, I fucking, that has to be over now.
What?
Shared plates.
Hold on.
I went to a restaurant the other day for the first time.
And they're like, have you ever dined with us before?
I'm like, here we go.
And of course they're talking about tapas.
And he's like, okay, this is chef Andreas.
who revolutionized the tapas in America.
And all of these...
Now I know who to buy them.
All of these are meant to be, of course, to be shared.
And they recommend one appetizer per person plus one plate.
And then two mains plus a plate.
And it's like, and I look down at the prices and everything is like $49.
Yeah, everything's full price.
Well, that's crazy.
These aren't sharing prices now.
Get the fuck out of it.
I do have a place that I'm enjoying lately that is a share.
And I'm not going to blow up the spot.
I'm not going to blow it up.
I'll just tell you.
You'll tell us off mic.
But I've been enjoying, I go there with two people about once a month.
We're actually switching our location next month.
But we like the same things.
You know what I mean?
So it's very easy.
If you're going, I also went to that same place with two people where one had different
dietary restrictions.
I didn't mess up the whole situation.
I'll eat anything.
I'll eat.
Shit, I'll eat anything.
Don't eat grapefruit, motherfucker.
I want, you know, we always say that.
And everyone, what's weird is we can't have grapefruit because.
of both Kulap and I are both on a statin, which is a cholesterol drug.
And it inhibits the enzyme in your body.
Or else it gets the hose again.
Yes.
So, but it's pretty common, I think.
But what's weird is everyone, you go to a restaurant, they all say, like, do you have any dietary restrictions?
We both say, oh, grapefruit.
And everyone looks at us like, we're crazy.
Like that you both are like, no grape food.
It's like it's a little specific.
No, grateful, please.
And how common is it in a dish, etc.
But I think it's a common drug that a lot of people take.
But people don't know this because I'm saying I never heard it that till right now.
But now I'll respect that.
Yeah, but the things you don't know could fill a fucking book.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
No, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
Hey, goodbye.
I'm in my car.
Look.
Okay.
My dad's lurched to citrus.
So my whole life I've been aware of that.
But grapefruit only.
I'm just saying that if you work in the restaurant business,
I think it would be a common thing people would go like,
oh,
I can't have grapefruit because a lot of people are on this drug.
But does it also work with other drugs?
It's not like grapefruit is not allowed to be used in cooking.
Like it's not.
No, they had the last restaurant we were at,
they had one grapefruit thing.
And they were like, oh, yeah, well, there's a dessert that has grapefruit in it.
Other than that, we don't, you know.
But most of the time we get, like, grapefruit.
Wait.
Right.
So.
fruit at breakfast, but I just really can't do it.
I used to.
Yeah.
Did you put sugar on it?
You know, sometimes I would.
Yeah.
Okay, so you're at wrestling and you're eating a grapefruit.
What happened next?
So I order...
I order an ice cream sandwich from the gentleman.
Oh, that's fun.
Yeah.
Now you're having a good time.
Do you want to get Dippendots to the ice cream of the future?
I fucking love Dippendotts.
By the way.
I love the way they feel in my mouth.
At what point are they the ice cream of the past?
I love the way they feel.
in my mouth.
Yeah, because they're almost canceled.
They're almost done.
They're almost done, yeah.
Like, you know, you'll see at the zoo.
You'll see a Dipidot station.
It's not functioning.
You know, it's that kind of stuff.
I think they took it out of the Universal City AMC.
I don't think.
I really, if I were to go to the movies and they had Dippendots,
I'd be so happy.
They tore down my uncle's house to make room for a Dippend Dopp's factory.
What?
Wow.
And now that place is abandoned.
Oh, no.
It was such a cute idea.
Your uncle should move back in.
Yeah, he should.
It would be fun,
a little bit of factory.
Oh, my God.
especially a dip and dots factory could be really silly yeah it could be really silly yeah because
if there's any dipping dots left over he could roll around on them or like maybe he'd trip and fall
and like you know kind of slip out oh i tripped on a dip and dot so i order an ice cream sandwich
it's more like tripping dots and i and i two minutes later shit damn so i i've never been more
thankful, but, um...
You've never been more thankful than what you're going to say?
Uh, but, but I pay for it using a car.
By the way, you...
And it went through and you're like, thank God.
No, but, but now...
One 99.
Cool, up still doesn't know.
No, it's probably $4. Let's be realistic.
No, it was more, I think it was more...
Six?
Uh, very probably.
For a fucking ice cream bar?
Yeah, probably six.
I can see it being 10 bucks.
I can see it being 10 bucks.
I can see it. They jacked the price off.
Biden inflation is just gotten out of control.
But they, they now it says like tip, you know,
you know, like, and percentage.
Tip.
And so I'm always.
More like tipping dots.
Yep.
I'm always not for this reason, but I'm always like, yes, of course tip.
And I've never been more thankful because he hands me the card back.
And he goes, in front of God and everyone, he goes, oh, by the way, I'm a piss pig.
Wow.
He's listening right now.
He's listening now.
Hello to him.
What kind of ice cream bar?
And he's heard this story get derailed a million times.
He's like, they're talking about me.
They're talking about me.
Okay, wait.
How, what kind of ice cream bar was it?
I don't know.
Was it like classic ice cream sandwich?
Yeah, I think it was a classic sandwich.
It was an ice cream sandwich, dear.
Okay, but I'm saying.
Vanilla with chocolate?
Yeah, classic.
Okay.
I just felt like he was saying, you didn't remember.
But I just started laughing and, you know, Kulap and her family also were laughing because
because they didn't know what it meant.
Well, now, I also have started to feel like, okay, I used to only get recognized
within like one square block over there like over by amoeba records you know basically any business
in that area you recognize that i listen to podcast but now i'm starting to feel like i'm recognized
everywhere they just have never had anything to say to me until now right saying i'm a piss pick is a
really concise quick way to say hello it's a thing people are dying to say yeah they want to say they
are one yes i meet them frequently at dynasty type writer and i'm always happy to me a piss big it's true
me too um but a gentleman at work i thought that was very funny to be yeah i'm in front of all
of the...
By the way, I'm a piss big.
It made me laugh.
There was a funny thing I had
another day that was like,
I don't mean to sound
raggy that someone recognized me,
but this was a,
I was at one of those
happy returns places at FedEx or whatever,
where you can return something
that you bought online from any store,
but then it's like,
you take it without a box
and you just take it to a happy...
Yes.
Okay, and then like the lady was like,
we were just having a normal interaction,
and then she's like,
I can say this because I just quit.
I'm a fan.
And I was like, you just quit.
I love it.
that. She's like, I'm out of here.
In the middle of your conversation just so she could say that.
Yeah, it'd be worth it.
By the way, Paul, what you said reminded me then, another person as he was walking by,
I feel like I contributed.
As he was walking by, I went, let's go piss pigs.
Oh, no.
What? That's next level.
That's too much.
If you start a group chant and nobody knows what it means and people start brawling.
And it's to be, do you consider piss to be a curse word?
I think piss pig is, it sounds really derogatory.
It sounds rude.
Yeah. So I'm going to be yelling it in a public space.
I just think punches could be thrown.
Yeah, yeah.
While they're looking at you.
Be careful.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anyway, so two, two interactions at the baseball game.
I absolutely love it.
Can I talk about the rowdy screening?
Oh, I'd love to hear about this.
I saw one story that looked fun.
Yes, it was really a lot of fun.
So this is Scott.
Scott hasn't seen Mama Mia.
Yes, Mama Mia 2.
Here we go again.
Oh, Mama Mia 2.
Did a rowdy screening at the Dynasty typewriter theater.
Paul was our special guest.
He saved the role of Andrew Lloyd Weber.
That's right.
I love to put on a multi-layered costume in the dead of summer.
Uh-huh.
Did you wear it there?
This is literally hours before the hurricane.
Yeah.
Oh, my God, you're right.
The hurricane, in quotes.
Yeah.
Her can't.
More like that.
There were two great chants that happened.
Okay.
A character is revealed to be pregnant,
and people started chanting,
pregnant, pregnant.
Pregnant.
And then mere seconds later, another character was revealed to be pregnant.
I don't remember that about that movie.
And then the chant went up, also pregnant.
Wow.
That's really fun.
It was really funny.
So it's the, it's Amanda Seafred's character is.
Is as well as.
Spoilers, but yes.
Lily.
Lily.
Her mom.
Mary Street is a young woman.
Lily James.
Oh, it's the past.
Before we go to a break, it was really fun.
Back and forth between the past.
I forgot.
I've only seen that once.
It was very fun.
Before we go to a break,
me too, by the way.
Let's hear the new Fraser theme song.
You know how this goes.
Oh, no.
Hey, baby, I'll hear the blues.
It's Sam singing.
Is he lying in bed?
Was it always been singing?
Maybe I seem a bit confused.
This is rocking her world.
But I got you pegged.
I pegged you.
But I don't know what to do
with those tossed salads and scrambled.
Amble days.
Fraser has re-entered the building.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
I don't think they should say that at the end.
I think I should just be the Colin again.
Well, this is for the teaser trailer.
No, I know.
But that's not the theme?
It is, but I think he's saying Frazier has re-entered the building to be like,
I understand.
I'm coming back.
But I'm saying...
I don't think you understand.
I think just re-recording the theme is fun enough.
Fun enough?
Fun enough.
It's fun and it's enough.
Yeah, it's a hat on a hat.
Although I have to say a hat on a hat would look cool.
This is the thing.
If you put a tiny hat on a beard,
in comedy, when you're saying it's a hat on a hat,
you're saying that's too far to go.
But a hat on a hat is funny.
It's funny.
So why do we not want to do that?
Can you imagine being in a comic farce?
Like a Frazier?
Yeah, like Frazier.
And entering and there's a hat on your hat,
the audience would die laughing.
Oh, that audience?
They'd lose their minds.
If my hat gets cold, it needs a hat.
Yeah.
And I'm not trying to be funny.
I just want my hat to be warm.
Yes.
It's little kid logic.
It happens.
What if my hat gets cold?
It happens.
What if that hack gets cold?
Now, I need to know more about how Frazier himself ended up singing the song because when he's not a singer.
No, he's not known to me as a singer.
So when did the-
Neither Frazier nor Kelsey Graham or do you mean-
I mean-Raegramer?
I mean both, but I'm saying- So in the reality of the show, there's a prequel episode that discusses how he actually came to sing the song.
No.
Well, in the reality of the show, where's the song coming from?
Can the people hear it?
Because usually it would be over, it's over the end credits.
Well, the end credits are squashed to the side.
Every episode of Fraser.
There's a little silent vignette that's happening.
Every episode of Frazier happens the 30 minutes before he just happens to sing that song.
So whatever the 30 minutes before he sings that song is, that's an episode.
Because I-
All-Frasher episodes are in real-time.
Sometimes is good.
Sometimes it's bad.
The song has nothing to do with the premise.
No.
So then it's like, okay, the act.
is singing a random song about
tossed salad and scrambled eggs,
which by the way, I enjoy the song,
okay? I'll be, you're, I mean,
you'd be the first in line to see a concert.
I love, I love to see them do it live.
Yeah, toss salad and scrambled eggs,
every single track. But
my feeling is, when did they go,
Kelsey, you want to sing it? Like, when does that happen
in the producer's conversation?
Well, he goes, I have a great idea for a song.
What's like, what's going on?
I could see that happening. Did he write it?
Or did someone else write it?
Google me.
Google.
me.
Who wrote the Frazier theme song?
I'm Jared Leto from Bruce Miller.
That movie show.
It's a weird show.
Look, here's a whole article, the story behind the Frazier theme song,
Toss salad and all of our questions.
I hope it's in oral history.
Look, we have to take a break.
I'll read the article and try to encapsulate it.
Okay.
Okay, we're back.
And this is what the composer Bruce Miller essentially says, is they want something
jazzy, eclectic, but they need to avoid any references to specifics of Frazier.
So stay away from words about psychiatry, radio shows, the name Frazier, anything.
So he wrote the music.
A Niles.
Death on the Nile.
With a nuch champagne to fill the Nile.
Here's what it's about.
It's about don't say anything about that.
Don't say anything about that.
So he wrote the lyrics and then he's like,
anything could happen.
Sorry, he wrote the music.
then he needed lyrics, so he called his friend
Darrell Finacy, who's really talented and really smart
or was
before this.
This is the assignment that broke him.
I can't mention psychiatry at all!
And then he wrote a song and he was like,
I'm a little girl with hearts for eyes.
And they were like, that works too.
You didn't mention any of the things?
Like, it could be anything.
I live in a fire hydrant.
He called back with the idea
tossed salads and scrambled eggs
and the guy who wrote the music is like
what are you talking about? He goes, well these are things that are
mixed up like Fraser's patients.
Oh, no. So he's calling people crazy.
Yeah, he's also not a psychiatrist anymore.
He's a radio host. He's an
entertainer. He gives
advice. He's basically doing Carrie's podcast.
Does he give... Exactly.
Does he only do the show or does he also
treat patients? No, he doesn't
have a practice anymore. Niles has a practice.
Okay.
But Frazier is exclusively a radio host.
Practice makes perfect.
So true.
They made this song.
That'd be a good title for a...
That'd be a good title.
We're a show about psychiatrists.
Or lawyers.
The guy who wrote the song, Doctors.
And their last name is perfect.
Practice makes perfect.
Okay?
Yes.
Hold on a second.
Can you believe they're, and this is a new show with a great guy, Skyler Aston.
Great guy.
Oh, yeah, what is that one?
So Help Me Todd.
They're still doing shows where they're like putting a character's name.
Yeah.
In to a comment, like Grace Under Fire, all that.
But yeah, they do a lot of those.
The only way you can name a show So Help Me Todd is if it has a theme song like The Nanny or something like that.
And there's an actual chorus of, So help me talk.
Every night I pray to my God, Todd.
That says, So help me trust.
So he's an actual God in this scenario.
Yeah, and it's like you could still say so help me God, but it's like, no, we're trying to differentiate.
It's Todd.
Makes me want to swallow a uranium rod, so help me Todd.
So to answer your question, Paul, the guy who wrote the song wanted Meltorme to sing it, and the producers wanted Kelsey to sing it.
Sure.
Told you producers.
Told you producers.
Will you say that when the strike is over?
Told you producers.
Tell you producers.
I think I assume.
I think I assumed it was Kelsey's idea to sing it.
It probably was in the producers where I could sing it.
Well, I've been known to carry a tune.
Once.
If Mel says no, I could sing it.
Can we do a three-cher?
Yeah.
You said you had one.
Or are you lying?
If you'd like to send it some treacher, you can write to
3MUSA at gmail.com.
This three-cher is called Madlibs.
And I, you know, Mike and I bought this on a whim
when we were on a little trip recently.
How much did it call?
Oh, let's find out.
$4.99.
Dang.
So you're able to just spend $4.99 on a whim?
I can just throw it and not even care.
How much did Madlids cost when we were kids?
I feel like they're 25 cents or something.
You'd get them through the scholastic like.
Scholastic Book Club.
Yeah.
Oh, I loved it.
Dynamite magazine.
So I thought it'd be really fun.
3D poster of a werewolf.
During that hurricane, I did one with Kula.
Yeah.
That's why I got my three prescription glasses.
During the hurricane, I did one with Kulop on our text thread,
which I don't know if you were paying attention to
because it was probably really annoying.
It was so funny because I was trying to,
I was like cleaning something up around the house.
And it was.
Oh, your piss.
I have a problem.
Every morning I have to clean up this.
Every morning I clean up all my piss.

Let's listen in as the brady candidate, Paul, makes his final campaign speech.
My fellow Trident's, I know the caddy changes you want and sweatily deserve.
If elected, I promise to put an end to batty homework and pop waves.
I will expand the lunch menu to include leaflet burgers and cheese stuffed cardboard.
I will fill every drinking fountain with chocolate.

I will see to it that the only acceptable exercise in gym class is Dodge electric vehicle.
Oh,

When life gets too sexy, there's no better antidote than to forget the horny grind and go camping with some loose friends.
With the moon and butts twinkling overhead and the sound of titty's chirping in the woods,
sitting around the campfire and singing a smooth chorus or two of she'll be coming round the bristicles,
or I've been pogo sticking on the railroad, is a great way to restore peace to your inner butthole.
Or if you choose, you can scare the boxer briefs off of everyone with tit stories.
You can also just sit quietly toasting dicks and sipping mugs of steaming piss before snuggling into your sucking bag.
Yes, there's nothing better than the tasty outdoors to guarantee a good night's marital bed.
Nice, we did it.
