Starting point is 00:16:55 Kigs, but they have not and it's still a bad show. The problem, above all else, is three songs on loop.

I love to spoof every day and just to say everybody's spoofing that's okay. Ever since this circus came to town everyone's been spoofing round and round when i was young no one spoofed on a wednesday and now they're spoofing all through town comfortable yeah i got a question for you what one if you could answer my question who did you do
Starting point is 00:20:22 My question, who do you do? I spoof, okay. I spoof every day. But my orgasm has seemed to go away. Wait. A cold sand, wriggling spoof. The spoof that doesn't come with a cum. The cum comes out, but your mind and body doesn't. Orgasm, I know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Well, one thing that you could consider my friend it's just jacking it a little bit harder oh or maybe jacking it softer for a few days it'll take a minute but your sensitivity will come back I just your advice I jerked it real hard. Spoof came out. Red as a vase. Oh my god. It was blood all over my hands.
Starting point is 00:21:13 I put it all in a couple of cans. This feels very irresponsible. I'd like to check in with the constable. Constable. Constable. Constable. Constable. Constable. Constable. What do you say, sir? I tender my resignat-
Starting point is 00:21:34 Stop the music. Is the interval happening by the way? In a bit. So for the audience, this is the interval. You can go if you want, but the show keeps going. The show does keep going, and it's an important plot point. I tender my resignation. When I first came to this town and was made constable, people knew when to come.
Starting point is 00:21:57 They knew what to do. But now because of this circus everyone comes And I look to the stars in their holy glory Lots of little spots of cum And the constable was shot dead on the street Hit it The constable's dead He's been murdered. Well, murdered by himself, shot himself in the head.
Starting point is 00:22:28 No, I thought that would be too triggering, so I changed the plot of Les Mis and made him get murdered. He was murdered. He was murdered? By who and where and why he was murdered? He was murdered? He was murdered? He was murdered? Ah, a murder mystery in Spolk Town.
Starting point is 00:22:52 Was it the butler with the candlestick? No, he was in the mansion. I didn't say... I finished with... He couldn't have been there. But in the drawer... in the drawing room.

Starting point is 00:23:08 No, no, they were at the university. Let me be a bit, you don't know. The university has CCTV. But it has a library. Zach, he's building suspense and curiosity. Well, he could at least list people that don't have CCTV, alibis. Was Mr Green... Talk now, talk.
Starting point is 00:23:24 Okay, now sing now sing in the library maybe with the candlestick could be in the library now there is CCTV in the library and we know he was there but maybe it was CCTV then just watch the fucking footage and find out who it was if you know who did it. There was no CCTV on the street where he was moving. So then why, so. But there's CCTV in the mansion, the library, and the university. What about the drawing room?
Starting point is 00:23:54 And the drawing room. Oh, and the drawing room all of a sudden. Yeah, so there's CCTV in every, so what's happened is we can eliminate them as witnesses because they have good alibis. Alibis, my oh my.

We used to have really big frowns, but since we saw him walking down the street, we thought, well, how about this man's heat? You weigh a ton. Where were you at one? I was down at the docks.

Starting point is 00:30:32 Did you want a quarter to two? I was down at the docks. I did a poo that time. Tony okay. Stop this. Tony okay? Stop the music. Stop the music. Tony, stop the music!
Starting point is 00:30:45 I'm not okay! Tony O'K is not okay. A man has died in Spoof City. A man has died in Spoof City. I came to Spoof City to see the Spoof Circus. Tony O'K is not okay. I wanted to see the mayor's daughter spoof on the floor in the wall. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:06 He wanted to see the mayor's daughter do a spoof, but then she prematurely ejaculated and even though she put conditioner in her penis it wouldn't spoof out. A nuclear bomb went off. A nuclear bomb went off in the town over. And then a man died. A man died. Call me Tony, not OK. Oh no, Tony OK's been shot. Curtains.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Wow. Oh wow. So what did you think of the play? I thought it was bad. Yeah, it was bad because it was an improvised podcast. Yeah, yeah, that's what it felt like to me. One, it was too short. When I see a musical, I want it to be at least an hour and a half. I do it too. But to be fair, it felt like an hour and a half.
Starting point is 00:32:17 What it needed was a strong 11 o'clock number, you know what I mean? It needed memories or something. I think once they get a... For the off-broadway run It was fine But if they get a memories in there and if they learn all their lines and stop improvising I thought the Tony okay song where he went through every number on the clock. I like Tony. Okay Tony okay, they should bring him in earlier. Yes. You can't bring in the detective who's gonna solve the crime Yeah minutes to go. Yeah, I'm certainly so I think the pre-recorded music was tough as well. I'm certainly excited to see in a few weeks or months the Broadway version
Starting point is 00:32:55 with a live pianist. That's something I'm excited to see and I think is worth another half an hour. It's catchy music, it's great characters, it's a lot of spoof. What did you think of the stunt casting of Matt Smith from Doctor Who and the Crown? I just thought he wasn't a strong enough theatre actor. What? The stunt casting of Matt Smith. Tony O'Kay was played by Matt Smith. Right. Even though the role was originated when it was at the Theatre Royale, Mark Bonanno played him. They recast it as Matt Smith for the off-Broadway Chicago run. I love what it's doing with the form. When I see shows I like to go, okay, well I've
Starting point is 00:33:34 not seen that.
