Starting point is 00:00:00 Happy holidays to you and yours, love grandma. It's a good catchphrase. Thanks to Steve H for that. Steve, I bet it's Steve Hennel. Is that maybe? No, I'm sure it is. Why wouldn't it be? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:00:39 Just guessing in people's last names. I bet it is. I don't know. I bet it is. I wouldn't... Oh. Welcome to the show. Oh, thanks.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Scott Augerman here. Merry Christmas to you all. Merry Christmas. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. I'm crying. I saw a murder. Why do you say ho, ho, ho, ho? No, I'm crying.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Santa does sneak down our chimneys. I would imagine... How many murders do you think Santa has seen over the hundreds of years that he's done this? It never occurred to me that, of course, there's got... It just stands to reason. He has to have seen quite a few people taking shits. What is he...
Starting point is 00:01:19 Well, in their living room? He's sneaking down the chimney. You take a shit with your bathroom door open sometimes, don't you? No. You never have? No. Well... If you're alone at the house, why close?
Starting point is 00:01:32 A gentleman never tells. So, I'm sure he's seen... That's a weird floor plan, though. There's your... There's your chimney, your fireplace, and then directly... Directly across. There's a direct line to your open bathroom. I'm sure there's some dude...
Starting point is 00:01:47 And the toilet facing the door. He's taking a shit. All of a sudden, or the sudden, look. A sudden? No! It's all of a sudden. What do you mean? Who cares?
Starting point is 00:01:58 It's not like couldn't care less. Ah, good point. Why have language? No, but it's made up. Blue, blue, blue. You understand what I'm saying. Look, I know you're a stickler for that, but that particular one... That particular one is made up.
Starting point is 00:02:12 Here's why I'm a stickler. It doesn't offend me that you say it incorrectly. I'm concerned for you sounding stupid. I have ever since it was brought to my attention that it was incorrect. And by the way, my parents say it, which is why I say it. Oh, I know. Well, it didn't fall far from the tree. My parents were simple country folk.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Yeah. But ever since it was brought to my attention, I have to say 90% of the people say it the way I say it. I hear it all the time. Can I say you're the only person I know who says it that way? I hear it all the time. I bet you do. I'm attuned to it now.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Bet you do. Who cares anyway? But suddenly, I'm trapped. You grow. Gling-gling? Suddenly, someone's taking a shit. Suddenly, Santa... Oh yeah, let's get back to this for sure.
Starting point is 00:02:54 Santa comes down the chimney and the guy on the toilet, bare-ass naked, probably goes whoopsie. And then he's got to let one go, ploop, splash. And there's Santa just staring him in the eyes. How many times must that have happened? You don't think Santa looks away? You don't think he goes, oh, I'm sorry. How many bicycles has he seen being put together by an angry dad going, God damn it, how do
Starting point is 00:03:20 you put this thing together? Why wouldn't? So in this reality, Santa is real, but the dad still has to buy and assemble the bike. Yeah, of course, Santa's in charge. Oh, he just oversees. Put that together. Why don't you get the instructions out? And how many murders has he seen?
Starting point is 00:03:41 Countless. Countless, because the holidays are a very electrically charged atmosphere. That's right. A lot of emotions, you know, that's why there's so many suicides. Christmas, I think, is the biggest murder day. Well, Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:56 I think, well, between the hours of 10 p.m., Christmas Eve, and 4 a.m., Christmas day, there are more murders per capita than any day. So last night, a ton of murders. Yeah, so hope you didn't wake up dead. We're lucky to be alive. We are. Pew! By the way, I'm shooting a gun at you.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Oh, I thought you were trying to communicate. No, I'm trying to murder you. A language that doesn't matter. Hey, come on, Paul. Welcome to the show. Scott Ogerman here. I'm here with Paul F. Tompkins. Hello, I'm also here.
Starting point is 00:04:27 My guest of honor over the next, overall, these four best of episodes. And we're counting down your top 15 episodes of the year, the ones that you voted on. These are your favorites. And on this episode, we're going to count down 11 through 8. 11 through 8. The golden mean, as they used to call it. Really? What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:04:50 Oh, you know, it's like, if you go from 11 and you count backwards to 8, you stop there. That's the golden mean? The golden mean. So over the next three episodes. It's from Harry Potter. Oh, certainly. Harry Potter days. It's from Harry Potter days.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Over the next three episodes, we're going to be counting down a baker's dozen of your favorite episodes of 2014 of Comedy Bang Bang. And I cannot wait to tell you what you have in store, what you're going to listen to. I don't know. I'm going to wait, though. Paul, we had a great time listening to our last episodes to catch people up. Wait, Jared and Scott. 15 was Little Button Puss.
Starting point is 00:05:29 14 was their twins, Jonah, with, of course, Victor and Tiny. Number 13 was live from Riot LA with JW Stillwater. And number 12 was the Calvin's twins with Taryn Killam and Paul Britton. So people don't realize that you and I, in advance of these best of episodes, we get together and we spend a weekend and we listen to all of the episodes. All 60 or so. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:52 And we don't sleep. We don't take any breaks. Nope. We don't take shits. Just power through. Don't take shits. Just all red bull. Just power through it.
Starting point is 00:06:00 And we throw out all of your votes and we just vote on these ourselves. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We do look at your votes. We find them interesting. But in the end, I mean, who would know better than you and I, exactly. So let's get into it. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Let's hear what our first episode is. This is, of course, episode 11. Number one, one. Episode 11. We're just bubbling under the top 10 here with this episode. It's exciting. And we had a newcomer to the show this year named a very funny comedian, comedian, named Claudio Doherty.
Starting point is 00:06:40 And she is someone whose work I saw online and a couple people, actually, interestingly enough, brought her to my attention within two days of each other. Two people told me about her and said, hey, you ought to have her on the show. I looked her up online and I loved her stuff. And so she's made quite a mark on the episodes this year. She was hilarious. She fit in right away. I'm going to say this is a grepisode.
Starting point is 00:07:09 Thank you so much. As we established last episode, last grepisode, that is, of course, a great episode. This is episode 309, Tony Macaroni. Now, in a previous episode, Claudio established her character. And I say that in quotes because it's very thinly veiled. She shares a name with this character. She shares a name in a home country. She had a lot of back story.
Starting point is 00:07:37 Lot of details, yeah. But I want to tell you a little bit about her back story just because we don't really get into it in this clip. But Claudio has played a contest winner who won a contest to go to Universal Studios and also be on this program. And it's basically her mother in Australia has wanted to get her out of the house because she lives with her mother in Australia and has sent her to America to get her out of her hair. Now, previously, before this clip, Claudio has talked about her new book, which is based on a very thinly veiled characterization of her mother. The book is about a 43-year-old woman dating a 15-year-old boy, Tony Pepperoni. And we find out that this is based on her real mom and her mom's real boyfriend, Tony Macaroni.
Starting point is 00:08:34 So she has tried to disguise the name. Sure. And the book is called Tony Pepperoni, I believe. And so we've talked a lot about that. Now, I should say Jimmy Pardo of the Never Not Funny podcast is in this episode and he's himself. And Nick Kroll was on the episode earlier. He has to leave. And when we pick up this episode, it's Jimmy Pardo, Claudio Doherty and myself.
Starting point is 00:09:03 And then a new person comes in. And so let's hear that. This is episode 309, Tony Macaroni. Number one, one. We have to get to our next guest. Of course, Nick Kroll had to take off, but we have a wonderful guest. He's a fellow. An Aussie.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Aussie. I can't believe you. This is so exciting. Yes. Claudion's a pleasure. Oh, my God. We have a car season Australian actor. You've seen him here in the States with his syndicated shows.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Our Schrift is here. That's right, Scott. Hello. Wow. How are you? Wow. It's me, our Schrift. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Wonderful to see you. You know his work. I have been watching him since I was six years old. Every Saturday night, 6.30, everyone sits down to watch our Schrift. What happened when you were six? What made the change? Why did you start watching him? Well, the programs are a little risqué.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Yeah. And so it's six. Not suitable for a five-year-old, but on your sixth birthday. But six is okay? Every time before we'd start airing, I'd scream right in the camera. There's a child in this room. He's a bloke six years old. Send him away.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Yeah. Away I would trot. But now, but then I was six and then I could watch and I love, I love what you do. I'm so excited to meet you. What are some of your shows, if I may ask, our Schrift? I'm not that familiar. Jimmy, do you know what it is? I am not familiar with our Schrift's work, but I look forward to hearing about it.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Maybe I do know it and I don't know. Well, of course, I traveled to the U.S. real successfully. It was a rocks and roll. Wait, you traveled to the U.S. successfully? No, the show worked in the U.S. real well in the state. It's called Rocks and Rolls about a renegade geologist. Rocks and roll. Oh, this is good.
Starting point is 00:10:48 I haven't heard of it. No. It's so good. I can't even call it a S. No. From anyone. Oh, very good. And I would doubt.
Starting point is 00:10:57 No. Do you ever take any as a geologist? I mean, sometimes you can study it. You know, carbon data? No, I didn't. I didn't take any BS from anybody. I don't take it in my shows and I don't take making my shows. I edit, direct, write, line produce, wrangle the animals, cast everything.
Starting point is 00:11:16 I do every piece of machinery that goes into making that sausage. So delicious. What's your favorite job? Sizzle sausages. Sizzle sausages is your favorite job. Is that what it's called, Claudia? Sausage sizzle. Sausage sizzle.
Starting point is 00:11:31 But I love how you flip that. Yeah, sizzle. That's what I'm known for in Australia. Flip it a little bit. Flip the switch. Yeah. Flip the sausage, cook it all the way through. That's exactly right.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Look how excited the sheilas get around. So excited. Yeah. Is that a metaphor for something cooking a sausage all the way through? Or euphemism or something? For cooking. No, normally when one hears the sausage one... See, this is what happens here.
Starting point is 00:11:56 They're all pervets, you know? Yeah. They control the sexuality. So sorry. I mean, it's our American sense of humor, I guess. Do you find Americans funny? No. No, I get it.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Boy. I get it. Right here. You know who I think is funny? Who's that? Chris Mad Dog Rousseau. That guy's fantastic. You know, he was here earlier.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Oh, Jimmy Mad Dog was here earlier. Not interested in Jimmy. You're like Chris. That's right. I see. Last sports radio. You love American sports radio? I love it.
Starting point is 00:12:24 What's your favorite sport, sir? My favorite sport is biscuit ball. Biscuit ball. Interesting. I've never heard about this. Biscuit ball. So that's... Michael Jordan.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Instead of a basketball, you have a biscuit? Yeah, that's Australian rules. Biscuit ball. What do you think of biscuit? You like that? It's a quick way to make a biscuit. It's really quick, isn't it? It really is, and it's just as delicious.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Look, making biscuits is so time consuming. When that product came around... Why are you sponsored by Bisquick? Look. Aida Z and Bisquick have put a lot of money into the show. We got it for you in some references. But I do when I'm out in the Outback, and I don't... How often are you in the Outback?
Starting point is 00:13:03 Two to three months a year. In the hot months? The hot months. The hot months. It's the best time to film. You can get the most Diddy Catty crew. Yeah. I don't know if I...
Starting point is 00:13:13 You gotta get a Diddy Catty crew. That's where they... The Outback restaurant. Do you find that... Love it. Okay. Really, that's the one authentic part of Australia here in the States? Oh, it's like...
Starting point is 00:13:24 No, it's different than... It's different than Australian cuisine, but it's like eating Chinese food here in the States. It doesn't taste like Chinese food you'd eat over there in China. Sautéed cubes of fat and whatnot? No, here you got chicken chow mein. Okay, that's a good analogy. And that's what the Outback is.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I love a blooming onion. Yeah. I'd never had one over there in Australia. They don't have onions in Australia? No, it's illegal to have an onion. The onion is illegal in Australia? Absolutely. Yeah, because what we would do is ferment them and throw them as bombs.
Starting point is 00:13:57 And people died. Wow. Lots of people. Well, you know people die every day, though. I know, but these were healthy people. And they were dying from the onion? Up until that point. Is that the problem?
Starting point is 00:14:07 Oh, okay. When you said people died, I just wanted to say that. I was just suggesting people would be walking down the street and one of these Azis would throw one of these onions at them and kill them. I just want to be clear, though, that not every person who dies is because there's an onion thrown at them. From what I can tell, well, she said most of them do die by the onion.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Can you prove that that's not true? Yeah. I've been reading a lot of facts on a lot of websites that Ebola's being transported across boundaries by the onion. You have such an authentic accent. What part of Australia are you from? Brisbane. Very good.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Obviously. Obviously he's such a Brisbane man. Is that your only TV show? This rocks and roll? He's got so many! Dentist the mentalist. Dentist the mentalist. And Man Sheen.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Man Sheen. Batman, Pat machine, all justice. Describe Dentist the mentalist. He's a dentist who happens to be a mentalist? He was a dentist. No, he was a cop. A hard-charging cop. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:08 He was hung by a bean. He was brought another. It's Man Sheen. Sorry. You're confusing them? He's got a lot of shows. Dentist the mentalist went in for a simple procedure. He was given gas and sent under.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Was he a dentist? But he's a dentist. He was not a dentist. But he was just a patient. And when he came back, they brought him back to life. He came back as a dentist. He came back with mental powers that would help you decide if you needed a cure for it or something.
Starting point is 00:15:33 So the titular dentist is just in one scene of his origin story in the very first episode? He's been crucified with the power. Who's this guy? It's not his fault. Exactly. So wait. I just want to be clear.
Starting point is 00:15:55 He is not a dentist. He's not a dentist. He was operated on by one. Against his own will. He is the power of mental capability. Then why call it dentist the mentalist? Because it's like dentist dot dot dot. So that's like dentist.
Starting point is 00:16:11 We're in a dentist's office. She understands she's a writer. Exactly. She's a writer. You do your verbal. You don't understand the written word. The verbal. The usual suspects over here.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Verbal. But I love that movie. Do you really? Yeah. I did a TV show in Australia. What's your favorite song? My favorite song? Yep.
Starting point is 00:16:31 The National Anthem. Wait. That was what I said. Of Australia. Should we sing it together? Yes. Yes. Australians.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Oh, let us rejoice fully. We are young and free. The end. The end. Wow. Short. That's right. Get to that game.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Because you gotta get back to living life as an Australian. Exactly. Australian rules. Biscuit ball. Biscuit ball. Yeah. Oh, you sing this before a biscuit ball. That's right.
Starting point is 00:17:03 And after. Yeah. And after. What we do is we have a whole, you know, we're asking, you call in a raccoon later. I'd ask Claudia what that was. Yeah. We don't have raccoons. But I, after understanding what it is, we call them Rubbish Burglars.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Rubbish Burglars. You wouldn't call it by its name the raccoon. No, you call it what it does. Oh, that's how it works down there. So you should hear what he calls a cat. What we call cats. Yeah. Little aesleicas.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Aesleicas. I think that you can call any animal an aesleicas. You really could. Not the way a kitten does it. Or however you call it. I mean, a kitten. What is that? A kitten.
Starting point is 00:17:44 I mean, yeah. That's, you make a good point. Like a beautiful slimy aesleica. A cat doesn't actually like do, like perform a cat action or anything. You're right. It's, yeah. What about meowing? Oh, you should call a cat a meow.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Mm-hmm. Yeah. What would you call a dog? A bark? Or, you know? A roly. Why do we call, why do we call the. We call them roly.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Why do we call the skin of trees bark? That's a great question. You know what I mean? Call it tree skin. Mm-hmm. I don't know. It seems. I'm lost.
Starting point is 00:18:15 I don't understand. I don't know where we are. You have trees and don't actually don't have trees. Oh, we have trees. That's what I do. What? Pardon? That's what a tree does.
Starting point is 00:18:24 I understand that. Okay, I get that. I understand. Trees around. So, now, why are you here? You've never seen a rubbish begler hiding in a tree? Yes, of course I have. You see it has little speckly little eyes.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Mm-hmm. Ready to begle your rubbish. Mm-hmm. Now, why are you. That's why you have to protect your rubbish. Mm-hmm. And you put it in a can of some sort. Is that what you guys do?
Starting point is 00:18:47 Same thing down there? What do we care if raccoon steal the rubbish? You know what I mean? Why does that bother us? It's like, it's going out anyway. I have another TV show I did. What's that? Called Lace Ventura Rubbish Begler Detective.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Race? What? No, Lace Ventura? Lace Ventura Rubbish Begler Detective. And what does Lace do? Or is Lace even a person? Is this someone like Dentist? There's actually a full stop or a period between each word.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Oh, okay. Lace. What about a period? Ventura. Yeah, he's a sexy lingerie model, lives on Ventura Boulevard. Yeah. And at night, he goes out and makes sure that all those rubbish beglers are staying put and not stealing rubbish.
Starting point is 00:19:27 He shoes them away. Wait, he shoes them or he wants them to stay put? I'm getting two different answers here. He's like, stay away from the rubbish. Shoes them away. He shoes them away with his shoes, my dad. With his shoes? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:39 He's got little lace boots. Little lace boots? Little booties? Yeah, little lace booties. Has that ever explained why he wears that? He's got a trusted role. He's got a trusted role. He goes with him.
Starting point is 00:19:47 He's got his role. He's got his role-y. What's the lace booty explanation? They're just really nice. Oh, they're nice? Oh, so if anyone ever asks him, he's like, hi, the lace booties. It pines him every time he's throwing at a rubbish begler, because it's another pair of lace booties down the tapes.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Yeah. And they're so expensive. Does he buy them one at a time or does he buy them in bulk? He buys them one at a time, which is not sensible, but he's not a sensible guy. Oh, that's part of his character. He's a great guy. Sure.
Starting point is 00:20:14 And we should be grateful for what he does. A lot of heart in the show. He's the best, but he's not sensible at all. OK, very good. He's not in control of his life. Claudia's very invested in my programs. I'm a big fan. I am a big fan.
Starting point is 00:20:26 How many episodes of this show have you seen? 900. You did 900 of each series. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. When I got to 900, I said, there are no new stories to tell. But there were 900 new stories previous to that. We got a little, we got a little, you know.
Starting point is 00:20:41 No, I don't. 835. Oh. Every one of his characters from his shows goes to prison for three seasons. OK, wow. Speaking of prison, my favorite soap opera of all time is Prisoner's Sub Black Age, which was from Australia. Did you have anything to do with that, sir?
Starting point is 00:20:56 Did he ever? I was the line producer on that. Is that right? I started. You got your start there. That's right. Is that why you do everything on your show, because you started off? Look, if you know how to do line producing, then you've got the chops as an actor.
Starting point is 00:21:10 And you know how to direct a crew. Well, goddammit, I want to get to it all. That's right. You can get paid for each of those jobs, right? That's right. Non-union. You don't believe in unions, do you? I won't let myself unionize.
Starting point is 00:21:23 But he has got a show about someone who runs a union. That's right. Onion. That's very conflicting. It's an onion union. You're watching the name of that show? I thought onions were illegal. It's a very subversive show.
Starting point is 00:21:37 It's called Larry Petunia Onion Union. Wow. Larry Petunia Onion Union. Union. So he is a union? He's a one-man union. Okay. And he's out to get a fair wage for growing onions.
Starting point is 00:21:51 But you don't believe in unionizing yourself. So was this conflicting for you to star in this project? It was a story I had to tell. Over 900 episodes. Over 900? How many? No, over the course of 900 episodes. Oh, I see.
Starting point is 00:22:04 But he didn't, he had to pay the price. He went to prison. Yeah, for three years for unionizing those other ones. Even one of my characters has gone to prison. Why is that? Because you can't show she can't. What? You can't throw show struggle.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Don't get in prison. Are you all right? I mean, I'm offended because we've been talking about being Aussies and the show Oz. Yeah. Ripped. He said him. Ripped. And, you know, Australians are all, it's a prison continent.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Yes. So is that right? What I'm saying is it was based on my show called Ripped, which was about a bunch of Australian surfers who were in jail. Yeah. In the ocean. Yeah, Ripped, Ripped, Ripped. In ocean jail.
Starting point is 00:22:46 Ocean jail. Yeah. Wait, so were they, let me ask you. The eels. Were their cells, was it, was there? The eels were the prison guys. Yeah. And in their cells were.
Starting point is 00:22:55 The prison bars. Yeah. Was the water up to like mid-height on them? Depended on the size of the wave. Oh my goodness. So sometimes we did. They were right in the wave, so it's very splashy. This is amazing.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Do you have a new project coming up though? Is that why you're here to talk about your new show? I'm here to talk about my new show. Really? Yeah. It's called Tony Macaroni. Tony what? Wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:23:16 You're optioning this? What? I mean, yeah. I'd like to talk to Claudia about auctioning. Optioning the rights to her book. I have. Niking into a TV show. Wow.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Wow. Wow. Goodness. I am honored and I'm so glad I came here today. Thank you to my mom for sending me here today. But hold on. Tony Macaroni is her real mom's real friend. Right.
Starting point is 00:23:37 The character. Tony Macaroni is the character. Right. Yes, but you want to do Tony Macaroni? I want to tell the true story of Tony Macaroni. Well, Tony Macaroni did sign over his life rights to me. Oh, he did? He did?
Starting point is 00:23:50 Why would he do something like that? He's so dumb. He's 15, so he doesn't really understand. But so I'd be happy to talk to you about selling this book. Very exciting. Here's my only name. I want to do it as I adapt this. Instead of it being a 43-year-old woman, it's a 52-year-old man.
Starting point is 00:24:07 And a 15-year-old boy? Yes. And you play the 15-year-old boy? Yes. You play both of them? Yes. And you have a lot of love scenes? Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Okay. I'm not sure why. You want to make the blame? Leave it to me. I know I've got a green screen and I know how to do green screen. I can do it all. Will you go to prison, both of you, or just one of you? One goes to juvenile prison and one goes to grown-up guy prison.
Starting point is 00:24:34 Grown-up guy prison. Season four is the tunnel that we dig towards each other. Oh, that's nice. Is juvenile prison unisex? Is that why you didn't...? Yes. Okay. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Oh, my goodness. This is so... Where does Arnold Schwarzenegger going to fit into your project? He's the eel. Wait, this is in an ocean jail as well? Yeah, I can see that for the story. Is there going to be CGI? You put his little face on an eel?
Starting point is 00:24:58 We're going to have him do total body transformation. I see. I got Christian Bale's guy. Okay. And he's got to turn into an eel. So he's going to lose weight, I guess. He's going to lose weight in all the right places. I know.
Starting point is 00:25:11 His legs sewn together? Yes. His legs sewn together. And his arms sewn to his body? Yes. That's a lot of work for a role. Well, he's patient on about the work. And how many lines does he have per episode?
Starting point is 00:25:24 It's the golden age of television. He has three lines. Over the course of 900 episodes? Yeah. Why would he do this show? Why would he agree to that? Each episode. Ready?
Starting point is 00:25:35 Here's the line. He'll be back. Okay. Okay. All right. Very good. This is where I get off this bit bus, I feel like. All right, we're getting off the bit bus.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Is that the tour? Is that part of the tour of Universal Studios? I can only imagine so. Number one, one. All right. Episode 11 on your countdown. That, of course, was Nick Kroll playing R. Schrift, his Australian character. I loved how Claudia was so, Claudia, who is Australian, so seemingly so delighted by
Starting point is 00:26:19 every reference that Nick was making, like egging him on and throwing in more stuff. Right. And throwing more stuff, more Australian stuff at him. Right. So enjoyable to listen to. Yeah. That's a great one. I loved how Nick picked Tony Macaroni.
Starting point is 00:26:33 He picked Tony Macaroni, which is the fictional thing. Yeah. When he meant Tony Pepperoni, but we still kept going with it. Very fun. That is episode 11, and thanks to all, great episode. Thanks to all of them. We need to take a break when we come back. We will crack the top 10.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Oh. No, no, no, no. Hey, everyone. Remember this last year when I did a few shows, comedy bang bang shows out on the road, you couldn't be there, or they were sold out, you heard about them. They were legendary shows. Well, happy holidays, because now you can buy the full recording of the tour available in the Ear Wolf store right now.
Starting point is 00:27:12 I have four shows available. They're hilarious. They include stops at the Festival Supreme here in LA, New York City and Chicago. You can join me and special guests, Paul F. Tompkins, Zach Alfinakis, Adam Scott, Bobby Moynihan as Forville, Lauren Lapkus, James Addome, Horatio Sands, Jason Manzuchus, and Todd Berry on this comedy bang bang extravaganza. Each live recording is available individually for $2.99, or I believe they're all in a set for $9.04.
Starting point is 00:27:41 That's pretty good. So thanks for listening, and hope you enjoy those. I hear the New York and the LA ones are especially good. Hey, welcome back. Comedy bang bang. I'm here with Paul F. Tompkins, and this is exciting. We're getting into the top 10 episodes of the year. We officially right now.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Officially. We're cracking the top 10. 11 through 15. All worthy, and all could have been in the top 10, but they weren't voted. But you know what, man? I mean, if you're not in the top 10, you might as well be living on that garbage island in the ocean. On garbage, on garbage island, in the middle of the ocean, by the sea, down by the sea.
Starting point is 00:28:22 Yeah, the ocean's down by the sea. Some of them are. Yes, some of them are. Yep. The Indian Ocean. Sure. The Dead Sea. And the Sea of Tranquility.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Oh, moon times. Okay, let's get to it. This is, on your countdown, this is number 10. Number 10. Number 10 indeed. And this is a very interesting episode. This is, I would say this came out in, in fact, I know it came out in February. I believe February 17th or so.
Starting point is 00:28:52 This is an episode number 272. This is an episode entitled Sex Party Season. Ah, dear to my heart. Ah, yes. This is, of course, our good friend, Gilly and Jacobs from Communite. And this divine decadence herself. Gilly, sorry. She made her one and only appearance this year.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Her schedule blew up this year. She normally makes two, three, perhaps. Yeah, it's true. But her schedule got very, very busy. She had Communite. She had, I think, a couple of movies that she did, right? Yeah, she had a lot of stuff going on this year. We tried to get her back after this, but hopefully we'll have her on a few more times in 2015.
Starting point is 00:29:34 This is her one appearance. And this episode is notable for the inaugural appearance of another person who's made a couple appearances on the show this year. That is, of course, director Len Wiseman. Director of the Underworld Pictures. The Underworld Franchise. That's right. Now, I've heard of a sub-franchise.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Franchise. Oh. Frank, what were you singing? Like These Eyes. Oh, what about? That's like a little song. He's got Franchise. No.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Like Betty Davis' Eyes. No, I was doing it like, I forget who sang that song. What song? The Guess Who. Franchise. I can't guess. I don't know it. I've already said I don't know it.
Starting point is 00:30:09 You don't know These Eyes by The Guess Who? I don't. These Eyes. It's like that, but I put the word Franchise in. Hey, 19. The Quarro Gold. The Quarro Gold. That song is sickening.
Starting point is 00:30:22 It's disgusting. It's disgusting. Do you think Steely Dan knew they were disgusting, or were they just, like, honestly singing about what they were going through? That's a real question for the ages. Did Steely Dan know they were disgusting? I don't think that they did. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:39 But I do think that they realized it later and didn't care. Hey, let's win a Grammy in 20 years for a record that we... Oh, hey, we're disgusting. So what? Shrug. Hey, Steely. Yeah, Dan? Let's get together and make some tunes.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Yeah, all right. Let's call each other Dan Steely. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? I am. Let's be disgusting all over again. The Quarro Gold. The fine Colombian. Makes tonight a wonderful thing.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Well, when they sing about the fine Colombian, are they talking about cocaine? Yeah, they are. Oh, the finer things in life. We're going to have some tequila, a cocaine party. And then I'm going to fuck a 19-year-old. Yeah. And not relate to her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:28 Anyway, that's what that sounds like. Franklin. Oh, my God. Anyway. Anyway, this is a sex party season, and Len Wiseman. Okay, let me explain what's happening. If you've been listening to the show over the past few years, Gillian Jacobs has a long, tortuous relationship with director Gary Marshall.
Starting point is 00:31:49 It's on again, off again. Director and creator of Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, Mark and Mindy. And you met him this year. Yes, I did. I've seen the picture, but where did you meet him? I met him. Oh, sound effects. Track 14?
Starting point is 00:32:04 Track 14, I believe. Let's hear a little bit of track 11, though. Oh, sure. You want to hear track 11? Yeah, play a little 11, if you would. Oh, that's track 14 mixed with track 11. Mash up. Very nice.
Starting point is 00:32:19 I think we're almost there. I want to listen back to this later, but I think that might be... So, 15 tracks sound effect record? That might be the definitive track 11. That might be, yeah. No, just track 11, I'm talking about. We still have those other tracks. We're trying to make 99 on this CD.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Yeah, that's right. We're only up to 15. So, where did you meet Gary Marshall? At a table read for the animated Netflix program, Bojack Horseman. Of which you are a cast member. Which I am a cast member. Fantastic. And he was there.
Starting point is 00:32:46 I did not know he was going to be there until... Did he create it? ...a warning of he did not create this one. So, he goes ahead and he appears on shows he did not create. Yeah. Very magnanimous of him. This one? Louie?
Starting point is 00:32:58 That one about trying to find good directors, the reality show. Oh! The Janet Barney was a cast member. The lot. The lot. Right? Yeah, that was it. That was it.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Yeah, I think so. Now, you met him. He appeared on the show, is that what it was? Yeah, he was doing a voice on the show. And you found out about him. I found out that morning he was going to be there and I was really nervous about it. Because... I didn't know if someone...
Starting point is 00:33:23 Because let's face it, let's be honest here. Let's be honest. You... Gary Marshall is one of your beloved characters. He's one of my beloved characters. I love him. And so, I thought someone would perhaps have told him that I do this. Yeah, or might let it slip in front of him.
Starting point is 00:33:41 Yes. Or like on purpose to embarrass me. Yeah, yeah, or said, oh, by the way, pulled us an impression of you. Yes. And then all of a sudden, you... All of a sudden, you said whatever. You have to do it. All of a degree.
Starting point is 00:33:50 All of a degree grew. No one did that. Thankfully. And afterwards... I wouldn't say I were there. He was... Of course you wouldn't. He was hilarious at the table read.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Yep. He was perfect. Mm-hmm. Because a lot of people, you know, sometimes you see people at these things and you think, oh, it's just reading. It's not that difficult. Like, you don't have to even get full performance, but... Vowels, consonants.
Starting point is 00:34:13 Just do them in order. Yes. Exactly. Some people are not good at table reads. They don't do a good job. They don't get, like, where emphasis should go. Sure. Things like that.
Starting point is 00:34:22 Very flat. And that means you're supposed to emphasize that word. I guess so. I don't like being told what to do. Okay, Christopher Walken. So, he was great. He was hilarious. And afterwards, I thought I got to get a picture with him.
Starting point is 00:34:35 You got to. Because I am a genuine fan of him. Oh, yeah. Like, as a guy. Yeah. First of all, all those TV shows meant the world to me when I was a kid. Oh, of course, yeah. The world to me.
Starting point is 00:34:46 I met Henry Winkler recently, and I didn't get a chance to tell him how much I loved Happy Days, but you know who I did get a chance to tell was Robin Williams. He and I did a show together a few years back. And during the show, because we were all supposed... It was Jeff Garland's show, Combo Platter. We were all supposed to tell stories based upon a word from the audience. One of the words led me into talking about Mork and Mindy and the... What was the word, Mork?
Starting point is 00:35:12 It may have been. It was something like that. Where it was, hey, Robin Williams is doing the show. Let's say something that's like... Shotspot. And I said, please, sir, language. But I got to tell the story of how I watched that Happy Days episode where Mork was introduced and how much it meant to me and how the entire next day, while I was doing errands with my
Starting point is 00:35:37 mom, I was recounting detail, every single detail of what happened in that episode. Of course. Because she hadn't seen it. Remember when you used to do that with your parents? She hadn't seen it. Yeah. It was so exciting. Every movie you saw...
Starting point is 00:35:49 You just saw, yes. Yeah, in detail. And my mother was very, very... Just encouraged that all the time, which I can't believe. How boring must that have been for her? But to hear a little kid tell... That's very sweet. It probably took longer than watching the actual 22-minute, 23-minute episode.
Starting point is 00:36:07 For sure. So I remember doing this all throughout all of our errands and we ended up in a hardware store and I finally told the last few elements of the story in the checkout line and the checkout woman who, as I remember, it was an old woman, but I bet she was 30. This withered old crone. She smiled at my mom and me and said, sounds like someone saw Happy Days last night. But I just remember that so much and that show meant the world to me and so I told that story and Robin Williams kind of in his shy way and I had met him a few times up to this point
Starting point is 00:36:51 and never had incredibly long discussions with him, but he just sort of said, oh, I'm sorry. Like, he was embarrassed about working with me or something, but it was just very kind and then there's a picture of him with his hand on my knee as we were sitting next to each other like he reached over to Pat me, but it looks like he just has his hand on my knee. But anyway, and now, of course, that happened in this year, of course, the story about him. I don't know why I'm bringing it up, but it was... I choose to remember the good times.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Did you think that there were people listening to this going like, does he know? Does he know? Someone, Paul should tell him. No, but Robin was a great guy and he was. In any case, why did we start talking about that? Oh, Gary Marshall. Gary Marshall, yeah. So I went up and I asked him for a picture and he was...
Starting point is 00:37:43 Of course! He was like, sure, we could do a selfie whatever you want. He said selfie. He said selfie. It killed me. And then he told me like, I'm wearing my red sweater because I'm going to a Christmas party in Burbank later on. The sweater needed explanation.
Starting point is 00:38:00 I wouldn't normally wear a sweater. That color? Was it a sweater in general? Maybe. I felt like he wanted to explain like, I'm a little dressed up because I'm going to a party. I don't know. I think he was just making small talk with me till the picture was done.
Starting point is 00:38:15 But he was very sweet and he was very complimentary and he was exactly the way I've always imagined him to be. Him and Lost in America, one of the greatest scenes. Anti-clothes. The Desert Inn has heart. The Desert Inn has heart. Our conversation is over. Who is that?
Starting point is 00:38:36 I'm just trying to do your impression of him. In any case, so Gillian Jacobs over the past few years has had a, the storyline with your characterization of Gary Marshall is they've been married. It's, by the way, it's wound up on Gary Marshall's actual Wikipedia page several times that he's married to Gillian Jacobs and she always retweets it. She enjoys this very much. I find that sort of thing amusing, but I do not condone it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:39:03 Because people do it to my page all the time. Yes. It's been done to me as well. Yes. But in any case, so. In any case. Previous to this, Gillian and Gary had been talking about their marriage and Gillian is a gold digger when she comes on the show and she's married Gary for his money.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Weird choice that she's made. And so we had just gotten done talking about that and then Len Wiseman, director of the Underworld franchise comes in. This is episode number ten on our top ten sex party season. Number ten. Seriously, are you in bad shape? Yes. What's going on with your credit?
Starting point is 00:39:44 I need your money. You know what? I think I have a solution to this. What? I love my wife, Barbara. We're going to be together forever. Whether it's on this plane in another dimension or American heaven. Stop rubbing it in my face.
Starting point is 00:39:59 But if you like film directors, get a lot of money. Okay. I want to introduce you to a friend of mine. I'm going to go get him. Hold on. Oh, okay. Okay. Oh, this is exciting.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Hey, come on in. Yes, come on in. Someone else will come on the show. Who's this? Down here. Here we go. I don't know this person. Oh, hello.
Starting point is 00:40:17 How's it going, everyone? Nice to see you. Oh, hello, sir. How do you do? Hi. Oh, look at you. You're a lovely little thing. Oh, thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:40:25 I don't know this guy. This is my friend, Len. Len Wiseman. He's the director of the Underworld Pictures. Oh. That's right. Len Wiseman. Have you seen him?
Starting point is 00:40:34 The Underworld Pictures? I can't say that I have. Oh. But I won't say that I haven't. Listen. Well, that's very diplomatic. I like you. They're very exciting pictures.
Starting point is 00:40:44 It's a war between vampires and werewolves. They hate each other. Oh, OK. And they're trying to kill each other all the time. So has a vampire and a werewolf ever mated and created some sort of half-breed? Oh, good question. It's funny that you mentioned that because that's exactly what happened. That's what I would have happened if I were writing.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Right? Everyone wants to see it. You see them and they're so dark and mysterious. You saw the sex? You saw the sex? Yeah. Well, one of the movies just hardcore sex between a vampire and a werewolf. The director's cut, and I'm the director.
Starting point is 00:41:16 Oh. But there's a lot of in the director's cut, which you can get on DVD. I think it's on Blu-ray. There's a lot of hardcore, vampire and lichen. That's what we call them. What's lichen? A lichen's a werewolf, but we try to fancy it up a little bit. Oh, OK.
Starting point is 00:41:32 It's kind of weird to say werewolf the whole time. Werewolf? Werewolf? Werewolf. Werewolf. Why is that weird? Now, why is that weird? Because we were approaching it from a place of let's make it sound, you know, so sexy.
Starting point is 00:41:45 It's like a sexy lichen. Look out. Look out. It's a lichen. What are they capable of? I don't even know. Yeah, but isn't that confusing for the audience that they don't know what a lichen is? Well, that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:41:57 We tried to make it less confusing because we said werewolf. We had it. We were afraid that people were going to picture, you know, Lon Cheney Jr. He's wearing the sleeveless t-shirt and slacks. And he's hairy. Or Michael Landon. Michael Landon from I Was a Teenaged Werewolf. I looked up all the werewolf pictures.
Starting point is 00:42:18 Is it teenaged or teenage? You might be right. Okay. But he was teenaged. He was the age of a teen as well. Yeah, that's right. So anyway, Gary and I met each other at a DGA fundraiser. What were you raising money for?
Starting point is 00:42:32 The DGA. Okay. It's nice to have money. Sure. And it seems like the do's would cover that. Wait, how's your healthcare plan, DGA? Oh, it's the best one. Something wrong with your health?
Starting point is 00:42:43 If you marry someone, do they get to be on your DGA? Oh, yes, they do. Interesting. What is it? Are you okay? Interesting. I've got a variety of illnesses, maladies. Mostly mental.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Listen, the reason I invited Len down here is I thought maybe you two would get along. Gary told me that he knew a hot little number. Thanks. Who was single and looking to mingle. And I said, let me in there. I just feel a little strange about this because... How nice that, hun. Well, I had no problem trying to kill Barbara Marshall, but I don't want to kill Kate Beckinsale.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Oh, wait. Are you married to Kate Beckinsale? I guess you could say I'm married to Kate Beckinsale. Yeah, she's kind of my wife. You're what? My wife. Okay. So...
Starting point is 00:43:31 Yeah, we do wife and husband things. We hang out together. Your wife. My wife. Yeah, we spend time at home. Your wife. She's my wife. We spend time at home.
Starting point is 00:43:40 You know what we like to do? We like to watch television together. Oh. I'm into that. One of our favorite shows. I don't know if you've seen it. It's got a small town in Texas. High school football is the big attraction there.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Yeah, I'm drawing a blank. Wait, under the dome. No, I don't think that's about high school football. Intelligence. Not intelligence. That's about a guy with a computer head. Under the dome has so many characters in it that conceivably some of them have played high school football.
Starting point is 00:44:10 Well, you could say that about literally anything written since the invention of high school football. So that, I think, is casting too wide a net. When was the invention of high school football? Oh, yeah. 1620. When the pilgrims landed. They immediately set up a touch game.
Starting point is 00:44:25 They said, okay, kids, here's what we want you to do. Buckle your hats up real tight, start running at each other, fight over a ball. We want some of you to have concussions by the end of the day. That's right. Wow. I don't know what the show is. Oh, it's called Friday Night Lights. I don't...
Starting point is 00:44:41 Friday Night Lights, it's called. What's the matter? You're feeling like you're trying to say something. What's going on with you? What's happening? You got a tick? Spit it out, son. What's happening?
Starting point is 00:44:56 What's with this guy? I don't know. He's a lunatic. Friday Night Lights! Sorry. That was a strange thing to bear witness to. Oh, boy. I'm really sorry.
Starting point is 00:45:09 You seem like you have mental illness. I don't know what... Do you? Sort of. Yeah. All right. I've been gilly and I may share some of those. We all do.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Look, we're all in a crazy business. We're all a little nutty. Not me! I'm a sane person. I just... Okay, Len, let me ask you this. Ask me anything because I'm an open book owner. Call him Mr. Wiseman.
Starting point is 00:45:27 Okay, Mr. Wiseman. No, don't. Call me Len. Okay, Len. Oh, I like the way you say it. Is that short for lentil? Yes, that's right. Lentil Wiseman from Fremont, California.
Starting point is 00:45:38 All right, lentil. I know that the underworld pictures have been very successful. Hugely successful. Everyone loved them. Great. Loved? They're our first. Loved.
Starting point is 00:45:54 So after the first... Well, there's more coming. Don't worry. Yeah. I'm not done with the underworld verse. Here's my question, though. Okay. Do you have profit participation in the franchise?
Starting point is 00:46:04 Oh, yes. Of course I do. What do you have? All of them. You have all of the points. The studio takes the net profit. Okay. And I get the gross.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Okay. I get points on everything. You get the gross profit of the movie? That's right. And somehow... And I give the studio the net profit. Oh, okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Oh, I see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It all goes through me. So it goes to you first and then you... Okay. The check for the box office gross. It just goes right to you. Goes right to me.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Everyone who owns a movie theater has to write you a check. What's my PO box? Not to my house. What's your PO box? Where's it located? Oh, it says 16... Wait a minute. You almost got me.
Starting point is 00:46:43 Oh, okay. Well, you know... That was a close one. Woo! Interesting, interesting, interesting, interesting. Interesting. Yeah, so I'm filthy rich. Got it.
Starting point is 00:46:51 Now, what's the Kate Beckinsale situation? And what's going on with her? Well, you know, we're married, but she was married when I met her. And then she wasn't, and then she was married to me. So I'm saying things are fluid. There's an ebb and flow to life and, you know, it's Hollywood, darling. You know what I'm saying? So would you be willing...
Starting point is 00:47:11 Okay, where do you live? I live in Bel Air. Oh, fuck. What's the matter? Is that where the PO box is? You almost got me again. It is, it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:20 It is in Bel Air. 16-something in Bel Air and the Bel Air Post Office. You know, I made a PO box map. It's like a treasure map, but instead of treasure, it's the PO box. Okay. Yeah. You can try to impersonate me and get the key to open it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:34 But good luck. Well, what if I talk like this? Ugh, what? I mean, maybe. I feel like I'm listening to Amira. Well, excuse me, could I open up my PO box? Oh, now you're losing it. I'm Len Weiss.
Starting point is 00:47:45 It started off pretty good. Ah, you know. But then you lost it to us. Hey, you know, I'll perfect it. I feel like... Well, look, they are very security conscious at this PO box place. They are very security conscious. It's a mailboxes, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:47:57 It's a mailboxes, et cetera. Do you even... Yes. Do you even know Latin? Latin. Latin. Et cetera is Latin. Et cetera?
Starting point is 00:48:06 No, that's do tell. This is starting to get insulting. Okay. Because you're just doing me to me. Okay. Well, I'm going to get it. I'm going to... And I'll be out there at that mailboxes, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:48:16 All right. Well, you know, it helps to look like the person too. You can't show up. All right. Describe yourself. How would you... Oh, very handsome. Very handsome.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Thank you. Very handsome. Is that important to you, really? No, it's not, obviously. I'm not an elderly man either. I'm in my 40s. I'm a good-looking guy. He's not going to die soon.
Starting point is 00:48:32 But I know... Good-looking guy, beautiful wife. Can I ask you a question? Are you... Yeah. Are you by any chance from another dimension? Well, I mean, if you consider going to Cupertino High School, another dimension, let me... Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Bravo, sir. Thank you. Bravo. I like to have fun. Yeah. Yeah. Do you like to have fun with a murderer? Oh, I guess that depends.
Starting point is 00:48:57 I mean, what did you have in mind? Well, okay. Are we talking about a naughty game? Could be. Oh, keep talking. Hold on a second. Hold on a second. Who was that?
Starting point is 00:49:07 Len, could you put on ear muscles for a second? Oh, sure. Like, not listen to you talk? Yeah, and Gary, you put them on either. You're not... What ever! What's your game here? You trying to get Len to murder Gary?
Starting point is 00:49:17 No, I was thinking more. Well, yeah, that would actually work better. That's a lot more money. Who do you think has more money, Gary Marshall or Kate Beckinsale? Wow, this is kind of a toss up for me. I don't know. This is hard to gauge. Can you go on your phone and look up people's net worth?
Starting point is 00:49:33 Oh, yeah, there is. Okay, here. Yeah. Let me go on my phone. Because I was thinking, okay, we could kill Kate Beckinsale. Because then they're... He would probably inherit all of her money. Oh, my God, Gillian.
Starting point is 00:49:43 What? You're not going to believe this. What? It's a tie. It's a tie? They have exactly the same amount of money. Oh, God. How do I pick?
Starting point is 00:49:53 How does one pick? Should we flip a goat? What? I'm not... Are you asking if we should masturbate a goat? Flip a goat. Yeah. Yeah, flip a goat.
Starting point is 00:50:08 Hey, I heard that last exchange. I don't know which made less sense. Wait, does a flip a goat mean masturbate? I guess. In your crazy, demented, sick, twisted mind? It could mean whatever you want it to mean. I meant... We're all autists, right?
Starting point is 00:50:24 It's sandwich artist. Crazy time. Are you a sandwich artist? I am a sandwich artist. That was the part of the story that I did not say. What story? Never mind. Can I say something?
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yes, do. As a rich person. Thank you. It's not all it's cracked up to be. No. Have you heard the expression, mow money, mow problems? No. I don't believe I've ever heard that.
Starting point is 00:50:43 Simply put, the more money you have, the more problems you're likely to have. When you say more, I kind of get it. But you're saying something differently. It's a quaint vernacular. Mow apostrophe money, mow apostrophe problems. Like mow collins? Like mow better blues. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Or mow rocker. Oh, I like mow rocker. Who doesn't? CBS Sunday Morning, forget about it. Here's what I do. We shoe all the sex party guests out of the house on Sunday morning and then... Getting ready for football. Getting ready for football.
Starting point is 00:51:17 And then, me and K.K., we sit there on the couch. We snuggle. Yeah, K. Peckensale. Oh, okay. We snuggle together. We wait for that trumpet to sound. What does it mean? Gabriel's coming to destroy the earth?
Starting point is 00:51:31 No. It means Charles Osgood's going to show up with his bow tie and tell us about some quaint stuff going on. Is there a prophecy that Gabriel's going to destroy the earth? I've never heard that one before. I think it's that Gabriel's trumpet, when it blows, that means the beginning of the 2009. Really?
Starting point is 00:51:48 Is that correct? Didn't he show up in some city fell or something like that? That's Joshua. Oh, okay. That's from the Old Testament, my people's book. We call it the Torah. And Joshua blew the trumpet and brought down the walls of Jericho. Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:52:01 I had a question. Sure. The first time you met, Gary, did you think he was Italian? Yeah. Do you guys go to the same temple? No, I don't believe he's Jewish. He's an Italian man. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:52:12 But I studied up on my directives. I know everything about every director. Ask me any question about a director. Any director? Any director from the beginning of film to the future. Wow. Who's the richest one? Gary Marshall.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Wow. Wow. Probably because he dabbled in so much TV. Oh, he's the richest living director. Oh, who's the richest dead? Sidney Pollock. Sidney Pollock? Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:33 What? What? He discovered a diamond fountain. Oh, okay. No one else knew where it was. He periodically take these trips, and then he'd come back with just a duffle bag full of diamonds. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:52:46 And he'd have parties, and we'd go over and watch them. We'd look at the diamonds. You just watch the diamonds? Yes. He'd put them in a big pile, and we'd watch them. And they'd have a sex body. Okay. I was going to say, how long did the watching the diamonds take?
Starting point is 00:52:59 Here's the thing. Well, it doesn't take long because there's something about looking at a big pile of diamonds glittering in the middle of a mansion living room. Okay. It just gets the old juices flowing. You just go out of your mind, and then it's look out. I'm going to have sex with a person who has his next step. It's like a feeling of power.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Yeah. I'm going to go out on a limb. What doesn't get your juices flowing, Lynn? Let's see. And when we're talking about juices, we're talking about semen, right? Yes. Blood is also a juice. Oh!
Starting point is 00:53:26 So urine, I guess. Do you like to incorporate blood and juice? Urine is also a juice. Let's say all the juices from the body we can. Mucous. Mucous. I guess the juice. Yeah, booger juice.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Urine juice. Are they the same thing? They might be the same thing. Urine, semen, blood, spit. Bile. Spital. Diarrhea. The jelly that's in your eyeball.
Starting point is 00:53:46 Oh, correct. What about the wax in your ears? Not a juice. What if you liquefied it? Saliva. If you liquefied anything, it could be a juice. That's true. I mean, that's what we learned.
Starting point is 00:53:56 It's what we learned by juices, right? Is that you can make anyone a juice? What about toe juice? Sweat. Sweat is a juice. There we go. Okay. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:54:06 You call sweat toe juice? Yep. It's the juice that everyone forgets. A lot of people don't know that the foot is the sweatiest part of the body. That's why we wear socks to collect that sweat and to disperse it. It's disgusting. I have an anti-foot fetish. Now look, I'm a very sensual person.
Starting point is 00:54:19 Yeah, clearly. I think that's clear. You kept your boots on during... Oh, I wouldn't want you to see my feet. It's disgusting. It's shameful. You were taking Bono's lyrics to heart there. Get on your boots.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Yeah, I got them on, and I left them on. Yeah. He didn't sing that, but it was implied. Leave on your boots. Who's that? What were we talking about? Boob juices. Juices.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Oh, milk. Milk. Lemonade. Round the corner fudge is made. There we go. But milk is a juice. Milk is a juice. What?
Starting point is 00:54:50 Oh, yeah. Boobies. The body makes milk. You were very confused by that for a long time. I forgot. Do you know what I was a little bit too? I forgot. I forgot that boobs make milk.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Have you ever had milk come out of one of your boobs? Nope. Will you ever? No. No? No kids aren't in the future for you? I don't know. I mean, I really want to lock down my financial future before I consider having children.
Starting point is 00:55:11 I'm very concerned with money. Listen, back to what I was saying. It's not all it's cracked up to be. Here's the secret to life, if I may. I'm not, you know, I don't have it all. I'm in my 40s, right? I don't have it all figured out, but I've lived long enough to know that it's all about enjoying life, doing what you love to do, having good friends, good family around you, sex parties,
Starting point is 00:55:31 watching football, and a good cup of coffee in the morning. Wow. That's a great advice. I think money would help. It's not complicated, you know? Yeah, but don't you think I could get a better cup of coffee if I had money? Oh, no, of course you could get the best coffee. See, exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:46 Like the coffee, the coffee that I have every morning, it would make you feel like you're having a sex party. See. In your taste buds. Scott, come on. Let's marry Lynn together. Oh, this is sudden. I'm overcome.
Starting point is 00:56:01 I don't know what to say. A three-way marriage? Yes. Are you proposing that we get married? I am. Once they started making gay marriage legal, I think anything goes. Oh, Scott. What?
Starting point is 00:56:11 Slippery slope? Slippery slope? Yeah. Here's the slippery slope rule. Listen, I'm not going to marry any dogs. Okay. Hey, I have a horse, though. How about this?
Starting point is 00:56:20 Because I don't, I don't believe in the slippery slope argument. Here's what let's do. I'll marry you, sweetheart. Yes. You're hot as a pistol. I can't wait to get my hands on you. You're already dead. Again, I said.
Starting point is 00:56:35 Like a snub nose. We're already having fun fights. And then since I don't believe in the slippery slope, I'll marry you later in a secret ceremony. So I'll just be a bigamist. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Yeah. Okay, back in sale. Oh, forgot I was married.
Starting point is 00:56:52 KK. Well, let me talk to a, oh, I call it that sometimes. How did you know? I just took a shot at it. And sometimes I call it my little giraffe because of the mascot of KB Toys. Well, I believe that's the giraffe from Toys R Us. Oh, I didn't realize I was giving her a wrong pet name. Well, she has a very long neck, so maybe she's taking it as a compliment.
Starting point is 00:57:13 She has a long, slender neck. She's lovely. Like a sexy giraffe. She's lovely. She is, I call her the sexy giraffe. She's lovely. I think if there were any animal that I could have sex with, if I had to have, we'll just get that qualifier.
Starting point is 00:57:27 What? If I had to have sex with an animal. Let's just say that. Sure. Slip her toe. Giraffe. Why? Because those long necks, they're the most like a tall, beautiful model.
Starting point is 00:57:37 Yeah. Let me, let me ask you this because you're onto something here. What's the biggest problem with sex is that you're getting into it, you're getting into crazy positions and you lose that face-to-face intimacy sometimes. Not a problem with the giraffe because the long necks, they can always be kissing, always whispering in your ear, giraffe or I love you, whatever it is. I don't know if they even make noises. You think that a giraffe would say giraffe?
Starting point is 00:58:00 No, I'm saying giraffe like it's a language. The giraffe version of I Love You. I thought that you were saying a giraffe would whisper in your ear giraffe. Well, you know, certainly that would be a sign of acceptance, right? Yeah. If the giraffe addressed you as a giraffe, you'd feel like we've really made a connection here. Yeah, Gary often said his own name when we were intimate.
Starting point is 00:58:19 I thought that's what you were supposed to do. You were supposed to remind the person that you're present, that you're part of this experience and I would say Gary Marshall. Kelly, can I ask? Yeah. What did he ask you to call him during sex? He asked me to call him, please call me Gary. He asked to be called, please call me Gary?
Starting point is 00:58:40 Yeah. That seems personal. I don't know why you're telling this guy this. Well, you're telling me that I don't have a shot with you. You will not take me to this other dimension. Gary, you're too uptight. Thank you. You guys are going to get married here.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Yeah, I think so. I'm going to slip back alley Sally style. Yeah, they'll have a private ceremony with you like David Geffen have with Keanu Reeves. Oops. What? That's an urban legend from a long time ago. You never heard that one? What?
Starting point is 00:59:06 Hollywood lore. You know everything about any director. I do. I do. Even rumors and innuendos. Tell me about that guy who directed that train. This is my favorite film, the train coming right out the camera. Oh, Bertram Cummings?
Starting point is 00:59:18 Yes. Tell me something about him. I love that movie so much you don't hear a lot about that guy. He was 12 years old when he directed that film. Wow. Yes, but he had that weird disease that makes you look like you're 30. Okay. But then back then anyone who was 30 looked like they were 80.
Starting point is 00:59:36 So, you know, not so bad. Yeah, so not bad. Yeah. Great. So yeah, he directed that. He was in debt to the mafia. Bertram. Bertram Cummings.
Starting point is 00:59:45 When he was 12 years old in debt to the mafia. That's right. He had a crippling gambling addiction. Oh, okay. He gambled on hopscotch. Oh. And lost. Didn't have a talent for the game, but he loved the action.
Starting point is 00:59:56 Sure. Anyway, he had his head chopped off by the cozy nose. Whoa. Yeah. I guess that's why he never directed another film. Nope. That was it. One and done.
Starting point is 01:00:06 I love that one he did though. At least he made it count. It's so scary watching that. Do you know back then people believed it was an actual gigantic black and white train. I believe that. That was coming out of a wall. That's why I love that movie so much. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Even though the world was in color, they saw this moving image of a train and they thought oh, it's come to life. Yeah. Great film. Jumped out of the way. Great film. Open and close the same day. What's your favorite song?
Starting point is 01:00:30 My favorite song, probably happy birthday by Mildred and Patty Hill. Those elderly spinsters. Oh, it miserly crones. Have you used happy birthday on community? No, we have not. I already know this. I already know it's why chain restaurants have their own goofy little birthday song. In case any of their spies are out listening.
Starting point is 01:00:50 I have a question. How much money do those women have from having copyrighted happy birthday? They're the richest people on earth. But you know what? No one uses their song nowadays. So I think it's drying up. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:02 There's something that's been said in place since the dawn of copyright. What? Which is that even if people don't pay for the song, they get money for it. How? Why do you think a government is always having problems with money? It's because they're having to pay all this money to Mildred and Patty Hill. Because the government is listening to everything we say and do. That's right.
Starting point is 01:01:23 So they're monitoring every birthday party. Oh, this is why. So they have a lot of money. That's right. Are they alive? Yes, they are. They're in their 100s. Which one should I marry?
Starting point is 01:01:35 Oh, that's a close call. I don't want to be... I don't like to be shallow, a petty. They haven't aged well. Okay. I think it's also because they're evil. They're evil? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:49 I don't have a problem with that. And so their outsides reflect their insides. They're gnarled old crones. They're like witches. They might as well be from a fairy tale or from the underworld series of films. Will they be starring in your next underworld movie? There might be some witches coming up. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:02:05 I love this. Is there also a leprechaun? This is like later seasons of True Blood. That's right. Or the movie leprechaun. Oh, they got Crazy, right? Yeah, I'm having Warwick Davis is reprising his role. Do you mean Warwick?
Starting point is 01:02:18 Is it Warwick Davis? I believe it's Warwick. I said Warwick on this show previously and I was hammered. It should be Warwick. It should be Warwick. I mean, why spell your name that way if you don't want to be called Warwick? Like more than one person told you you were wrong? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Oh, yeah. Oh, my heavens. There are links for proof. Links or it didn't happen, I said. Links or it didn't happen. L-O-I-D-H. Of course. Lloyd.
Starting point is 01:02:45 Lloyd. The Lloyd Ha Squad. From Movie Line Magazine. Oh, no, it was Premier. Premier had the Gaff Squad and they would say, uh-oh, he's wearing his watch in the one scene and then the other scene. He doesn't have his watch on. I love the Gaff Squad.
Starting point is 01:03:01 I love the Gaff Squad too. Oh, that was my favorite. Why didn't they have, how come the Gaff Squad didn't get their own TV show? Yes. You know, Gillian, I think that you should be on a show that's like a drama, like an X-Files, where you're investigating Gaffs and it turns out they have a supernatural connection. The Gaff Squad.
Starting point is 01:03:19 What do you think about that, Apple? Well, you know what? Your track record speaks for itself. You got the Midas touch, Len. I'd produce it, you know? I'd produce it, so I'd be the buffer between you and the network. Oh, thank God. But I wouldn't direct it because we'd only end up having sex parties on set
Starting point is 01:03:37 and no work would get done. So how are you going to be the buffer if you're not going to be on set? Oh, he doesn't have to be on set. I'm going to do a three-mouse phone call. Yeah, I'll call him with all of my complaints. I'm very hands-off as a producer. They can do whatever they want. Hands-on as a husband.
Starting point is 01:03:51 That's right. You're a hand, you're a handful as an actress, right? I mean, I've heard stories about you on community of just how much trouble the network has. Are you a bit of a divine decadent, Eva? You know what, I say, if you haven't stormed off the set this week, go ahead and do it. At least once before the week is up.
Starting point is 01:04:08 Before the week is up. It's Friday evening, not too late. Just leave. What are your pet peeves about below-the-line people and how they treat above-the-line people? Ugh. Ugh. You really moisten your lips up a little.
Starting point is 01:04:22 You put on one dollop of chapstick. I was about to speak a lot of words. One little tiny section of your lips. They're very dry. Los Angeles is built on a desert. Man, I've heard that. It makes me thirsty. I'm going to have a little sip of water.
Starting point is 01:04:39 Forget it, Jacobs. Join a town. Ah! Classic film. My... Who was that directed by? Coulda used a werewolf. That was directed by Roman Polanski.
Starting point is 01:04:48 You know a secret about him? What? He was convicted of statutory rape. Correct. Wow. I've never heard that before. He had to flee the country. Correct.
Starting point is 01:04:57 Where does he live now? Is he under house arrest? Wasn't he under house arrest for a while? Yeah. He's got an ankle bracelet. And a tennis bracelet. And a tennis bracelet. They should call it an ankle.
Starting point is 01:05:05 They should call it an ankle. You know, why are we wasting so much time? Ankle bracelet. Oh, you know why? Because I think ankle it means something else. What's it mean? It's like a little bracelet you wear around your ankle. What's in an ankle bracelet?
Starting point is 01:05:15 A government tracker. So they know where you are at all times. So if you say ankle bracelet, it can only mean government tracker. That's right. Hmm. Okay. You know what? I like this guy.
Starting point is 01:05:27 I've been noticing that ever since I had sex party. Yeah. That during the break that you guys have really been hitting it off. And you know what? I bless this union. Really? I really do. Hey, you know what?
Starting point is 01:05:39 For what it's worth, I bless it too. Oh, shut up, Gary. Oh, well, the tables have turned. Claws in, Kat. I'm sorry. He hurt my feelings. He was my first love. Your first love?
Starting point is 01:05:49 My truest love. How old are you? How old do you have to be to get married? I don't know. I'm taking a guess. Well, I'm going to say 12. Oh, 12. Yeah, you can get married to 12, I think.
Starting point is 01:06:03 From Appalachia? If you have your parents' permission. No. You can't. No, you can't do that. 12? What, 15? No.
Starting point is 01:06:11 I believe 16 is probably the earliest you can get married. Take it to the internet. Get on this. Did you command them to type it into the internet? Yeah. Do you want to say whoever's closest wins without going over? That's right. Price is right rules?
Starting point is 01:06:24 Price is right rules. What's wrong with 12? I'm going to say one year's old. Why are you underbidding me? Wait, that doesn't make... You're not... Price is right rules. Let's just say 13.
Starting point is 01:06:34 Len, go up. It's as close as you can get without going over, right? Yes, without going over, yeah. So I'm saying 12. I'm going to say seriously? Seriously. Fun aside. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:43 I'm going to say 16. You're saying 16. Okay, I'm going to say 15. 15. What do we got? Engineer Brett. Okay, California. If either the bride or groom is under 18, at least one of the minor's parents or legal
Starting point is 01:06:55 guardian must appear with the couple. So we're talking zero? Yeah, there's no... It doesn't say... I win! I guess you win. I win! You win... we.
Starting point is 01:07:05 No, wait. The closest without going over. Oh, we all win over. Ah, that's too bad. Well, no. When nobody said 19. No, but we all... No, we all...
Starting point is 01:07:15 It's under 18. No, but you can get married. You can get married under 18. Yeah. But how young? That's what I'm saying. It's zero. Zero is the age.
Starting point is 01:07:23 What's the floor on this block? But I'm closer to the legal age you can get married without your parents. Technicality, no. Dumb boo. Over. Technicality, no. Dumb boo. Over.
Starting point is 01:07:31 Wait, wait. There are more developments. Go ahead. Technicality, no. Dumb boo. Over. I mean, you just have to appear before a superior court judge. But there's no minimum age, so we all win over.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Is there like a committee where you have to make your case? Is this in Bel Air? Like, we're in love? We're young? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What about... Let me ask you this. What would Romeo and Juliet do in modern times if they wanted to get married?
Starting point is 01:07:52 Romeo. There were just a couple of crazy kids. I prefer Romeo. You like Romeo. What did I say? Romeo. Romeo? What did you say?
Starting point is 01:08:00 Romeo. Like, R-O-M-Y-O? You say it and then I'll say it, you say it. Romeo. Romeo. It's like splitting hairs. It's practically the same thing. You say the girl's name.
Starting point is 01:08:12 Juliet. Juliet. Guys, don't fight. Is this your first... Now, do you pronounce your name? Gillian. Gillian. Gillian.
Starting point is 01:08:21 Like the symbols. Gillian. Gillian. Yeah. Oh. Are you sponsored by Zildjian? I should be. Gillian.
Starting point is 01:08:29 By Zildjian. I say Gillian. Is Gillian like... Do people get confused with like a numerical amount? Like... Like 10. Oh, there's like a Gillian of those. Oh.
Starting point is 01:08:40 Like 10. Yeah. Are we just shouting numbers now? Like 10? Gillian's rubbing her eyes. Like this is like... What's happening with you? I'm just so sad.
Starting point is 01:09:02 Are you sure? What's the matter? What are you just saying? Who's talking to me right now? Is it Gary or what? It's me, Gary. What are you talking about? I need you.
Starting point is 01:09:11 I love you, Gary. It's too hard to be apart. What? This is crazy. Love is crazy. We're just like Romeo and Juliet. I need you. You know what, Gary?
Starting point is 01:09:22 I think this girl really does need you. I'm already married, it turns out. So I think maybe... I think maybe you should go to her. You think so? I do. Now you directed the crazy movies about the vampire's werewolves. That's right.
Starting point is 01:09:41 But they really love stories. I know it! Those are a lot of stories. Gillian, would you do me the honor of allowing me to keep my wife in suspended animation and becoming my non-suspended animation wife? What's she gonna say? I'm crying right now. Are you crying?
Starting point is 01:10:06 I'm tearing up at the very least. I'm tearing up but also I'm getting very sexually aroused for a sex party. A lot of my juices are flowing right now. We have urine. We have bile. We have blood. A lot of milk. I got some milk.
Starting point is 01:10:18 Oh my gosh. What do you say, Addy? I'm on pins and needles over here. Yes. Yes! All right! She said yes! This is...
Starting point is 01:10:29 Now look. This is a huge mistake. I cannot be happier to be making. This is gonna be wonderful. You know what? I have an idea. Anytime one of the couples gets together on The Bachelor, they have the wedding live on the show.
Starting point is 01:10:45 What if we had your wedding live on this show? Do you know what? I'm an internet minister. Could you perform the ceremony? I would be honored to perform the ceremony. That would be beautiful. Next time you're on the show, let's set a date. Do you guys have you picked a date yet?
Starting point is 01:11:01 Yeah! Valentine's Day after the movie! Of course! First we're gonna begin the morning by screening the movie. Then in the afternoon we'll get married. Oh wait. Valentine's Day next year. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:13 Next year. Okay. I guess we can do that. Valentine's Day has already happened. Or just about to happen. Or just about to happen. All right. Who knows when Valentine's Day occurs?
Starting point is 01:11:21 Valentine's... It's in your hug! Valentine's Day 2015. We'll set it right now. All right! Live on this show. Put it down in ink. That's fantastic.
Starting point is 01:11:32 Can we sign something saying if you die between now and then I get all of your money? Cause it's a long engagement. Yeah. Would you mind? Yeah. I mean it seems unlikely that I will die. I will write up that document. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:44 Fantastic. Number 10. All right. Good app. Grapesode? Grapesode. That was fun. That was a good one.
Starting point is 01:11:52 I love playing around with Gillian. I think she's terrific. She's so funny. She's always up for it. And she always... She brings so much to it. And she's not... I didn't really know her.
Starting point is 01:12:03 Like fearless about it, you know? I didn't really know her. I met her at one party that my wife had. I talked to her for a bit. Wife, wife, wife, wife. Sad wife bone? Sad wife bone. That's when you have sex with your wife to cheer her up.
Starting point is 01:12:23 Yeah. That's exactly what it is. My, my, my wife. Now I... And I don't know why, but no. I met her at two parties. I met her at a... I have to admit I met her at a different party.
Starting point is 01:12:37 Before that one where a person I was with, I was very embarrassed by him because he was, I believe, hitting on her shamelessly. And, and, and not being that charming about it. Right. It was, I believe the second party we had gone to on the 4th of July. And I remember being sort of embarrassed by this guy.
Starting point is 01:12:57 I didn't really know all that well. So I'd only known her a couple of times. And then I just said, hey, you know, I just threw the thrilling adventure, our guys, because she had done that show several times. And I said, I was looking for a guest. And they said, why don't you try Gillian? She's great.
Starting point is 01:13:13 And so I threw it out there and she's so up in game for doing stuff, she immediately said yes. And then has become one of the best guests on this show. And a fan favorite if I may be so bold is to proclaim herself. Please don't. Please don't. May I?
Starting point is 01:13:28 No. Please may I be so bold? I'll allow it just this once. All right. We have to take a break. When we come back, we will crack in. We're going to crack the top line. We'll release the crack in.
Starting point is 01:13:40 We'll be right back. When was the last time you treated yourself to some new clothes? If you have to think about it too long ago. Well, let's change that. Did you know right now there's a shirt with my face on it in the ear wolf store? What? The ultimate honor.
Starting point is 01:13:58 The new comedy bang bang shirt, which is a throwback to the old days of comedy death ray is a soft, comfortable and sophisticated tri blend and American made t-shirt. It's available today at store.earwolf.com. If you're not in my face, but you love my voice. Well, I don't know how you can wear a t-shirt with my voice on it, but I will say there are four other CBB centric t-shirts for you to browse through.
Starting point is 01:14:26 Head on over to store.earwolf.com at your leisure. Four to pick up new soft tri blend American made t-shirts. From how did this get made? Comedy bang bang. Never not funny. Sklar bro country and a brand new shirt from wolf pop is a ear wolf sister network. That's cool.
Starting point is 01:14:43 And as always, thank you for listening. Comedy bang bang. We're back here and Paul if Tomkins and I Merry Christmas to you all. I hope you all got something good. If you got us some sort of new iPhone or an iPod or something and you the first thing you did was listen to this show. Well, God bless you.
Starting point is 01:15:06 If you haven't got a hey penny. Well, God bless you. Bless you as well. Also, if you sneeze, God bless you. Do you think that that has meant sarcastically? I think we've talked about it. Hey, have we? I know, I know what we talked about it on this best.
Starting point is 01:15:21 Okay, fair enough. I think I can't. I think I can't need a net. Oh, we are so far up our own buttholes. Oh, my God. All right. Now it starts to feel like it's a disorder. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:15:40 This whole podcast feels like a disorder to me. What am I trying to prove? Like what sort of mental illness am I trying to cure by doing the show? Are you trying to cure it? Are you trying to exorcise your demon? Well, this city is a disease, I will say, and I'm the cure. Marion Kobretty?
Starting point is 01:15:58 Kobretty. Kobretty, I know. Drives me crazy. Yeah, I know. Okay, let's crack our top nine. What are you saying? Release the kraken. Top nine, cracker.
Starting point is 01:16:08 Here we go. This is episode on your countdown, number nine. Number nine. All right. Episode number nine. This is the very first episode of 2014. This is episode 263. This is going way back to the beginning of the year.
Starting point is 01:16:25 Just getting the way back machine. This is Holly Wilde with Ben Schwartz and Horatio Sands. This is starting out strong. Starting the year out strong. I mean, this is the first episode of 2014. It made number nine on your countdown. That's pretty impressive. Now Ben Schwartz, people know from his own TV show House of Pies,
Starting point is 01:16:43 and he plays Jean Rapha on Parks and Rec, which is about to enter it. Got canceled. Got canceled. The canceled TV show Parks and Rec. The cancellation bear had its way with Parks and Rec. But Ben is one of my favorite people to do the show with, and this was his first appearance in 2014 on the show,
Starting point is 01:17:10 and he normally does the first episode of the year, because House of Pies comes on right away in the year, and so he likes to promote it. He loves to promote stuff. He really takes care of business, as they say. And he is on the show, and Horatio and he are good friends, and they like to do the show together. I believe they do an improv show together every week, perhaps,
Starting point is 01:17:37 and they work really well together, and so I love having them both on the show together. Now, in this episode, Horatio is playing Coco Marx, who is the descendant of Groucho Marx, whom you and I both met in Detroit? Yeah, on the road. I think it was Detroit. I think it was Detroit.
Starting point is 01:17:56 In the Comedy Bang Bang Live episodes from 2013, Paul and I went on tour together, and Paul did every single show, and Horatio did three episodes with us. He did Milwaukee, Chicago, and Detroit. He wanted to do Toronto, but couldn't get into the country. Oh, that's right. That's right.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Or it was... I think it wasn't that he couldn't get into the country. I think it was that we would have had to pay some money for some visa or work visa or something. It was complicated. Yeah, it was a Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin situation. And so Coco Marx, we met in Detroit, and his story, I believe, is that he had a video store.
Starting point is 01:18:44 Yeah, it's really convoluted. He had a video store, and he sold tapes of people peeing on celebrities. Well, he had just normal videos, but he wasn't paying the bills, so then he had to rent out tapes of celebrities peeing on each other. But he wanted to be a comedian, and he tried out a lot of his jokes on stage in Detroit with us. And so we're going to hear his return to the show with Ben Schwartz.
Starting point is 01:19:09 This is episode 263, Hollywild. This is your number nine. Number nine. Tell us a little bit. You started off in the music industry, correct? Well, yes. I used to have a record store. Very cool.
Starting point is 01:19:23 Right there in Pasadena, in Colorado Boulevard. It used to be called Golden Memories. What was the best way to get there, by the way? Like, from, say, I don't know, Pasadena... No, that's where it would be. From Westwood. From Westwood. From Westwood.
Starting point is 01:19:37 What I like to do is I like to take the two down to 134, and 134, you take it down to Colorado, and in Colorado, you make a right, and you run into it. I mean, I think it's around... It used to be around 6,300 East Colorado. Okay, so we don't need to... Well, it's done now, so there's no need to talk about it. It's gone.
Starting point is 01:19:58 Yeah, you know, Napsters and Spotify's and whoever. Yeah, I bet. It just really ran me out of business. All sorts of records? Like, everything? So it used to be all records. It used to be cassette tapes of old radio programs, and eventually, we had to lower ourselves and sell sex tapes
Starting point is 01:20:14 of celebrities. Oh, shit. Now, were they records of sex tapes? I would take... Yeah, I would take videotapes, and I would put them on the vinyl. Just the audio? Just to hear the sounds? Just to hear the sounds of sexuality.
Starting point is 01:20:28 To some people, fun. To other people, it's shocking and disturbing. You know, I had to want to Gavin McLeod. You had a what? A tape of Gavin McLeod. Oh, Gavin McLeod. Who's that? From the Love Boat, yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:41 And from Mary Tyler Moore show. He was getting serviced at an S&M house, and it's not something you want to play for the kids. No, that would be tough. But, you know, it was a specialty kind of thing, and I'm no longer in business. What was some of the sounds that Gavin McLeod would like? That's a good question.
Starting point is 01:20:57 I'll be the girl. Gavin, you know what to do. Well, first off, it wasn't a girl. Oh, it was a guy. It was an executioner. Oh, it was an executioner? Okay, I'll put the executioner in. What?
Starting point is 01:21:07 Okay. Gavin, can you please put the sponge on your head? Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. No. I'm lowering the little hat thing.
Starting point is 01:21:18 Three. There ain't no love in here, baby. Do you have any prayers? Do you want to say? Huh? Prayers. Oh, yeah. I pray that you beat me.
Starting point is 01:21:28 Hold on. I pray that you enter me. Wait, so Gavin McLeod? I'm Gavin McLeod. Well, that was just an ex-sweep. Oh, by the way. It wasn't a real tape, but it goes like that. He was executed?
Starting point is 01:21:40 What are we talking about right now? He used to be a guy dressed like an executioner. In the SNM. I got it. Yeah, I got it. It's fucked up from Gavin. So parents were probably a problem that also. It's not just kids.
Starting point is 01:21:50 Captain Stubing. My goodness. I mean, yeah. I mean, everybody has a problem. But you know what I mean? It's a porn industry. Of course, yeah. Anything goes these days.
Starting point is 01:21:58 You gotta roll with it. Yes, that makes sense. I just can't do with it anymore. Yeah, that makes sense. Any shorts? Oh, cool. Do you miss the celebrity sex tape biz? Oh.
Starting point is 01:22:07 There was some charming to it. Yeah. I do miss it. I miss... I miss sometimes we'd make deals with people and we would actually make the sex tape. Oh, really? You would record it? No video, of course.
Starting point is 01:22:19 And then we'd pretend that we stole it off someone's computer. But it was all an inside gag, you know. Yeah, there were some of the celebrities back then. Well, Ray J and Kim Kardashian. Wait, you were the person... I recorded that one. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:32 You were behind the camera for that? I was behind the camera. What did it smell like? That's a good question, Scott. It smelled like the Hollywood Y. The Hollywood Y, sure. With Chanel number five on it. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:22:47 Do you mean the Y in the Hollywood sign? The Hollywood Y or the YMCA? We just need to know. Yeah, I just need... I really need to narrow this down. I know I'm gonna regret it. The Hollywood side Y. How could you get to the Hollywood sign from here?
Starting point is 01:22:59 Do you know how to get there? Yeah, do you know how? Coco? I do. You go up each one. And there's a sign that says no hilltop access. But just ignore that. You make a left and you make your way up the hill.
Starting point is 01:23:09 Eventually, you'll be right there at the base of the Hollywood sign. Cool, cool, cool. And if you go inside the H, I'll tell you. It smells like the YMCA. Oh, okay. Sunset Boulevard. Got it. Not the Y.
Starting point is 01:23:22 But not the Y. No, no, no. What are you now for work? I'm starting to do some comedy, you know. We talked about this in Detroit. You did some of his comedy for us. Very cool, man. I wasn't necessarily a fan, but...
Starting point is 01:23:33 Well, I'll bring some more. I'll do a joke for you. Do you need any set-ups? No, I don't need any set-ups. That's how you write a joke by yourself and then you do it. Okay, you don't have to be an asshole. I'm not being an asshole. To be fair, Coco, the Marx Brothers, there were three events.
Starting point is 01:23:46 The whole bit with your family is that there's more than one. Well, all my brothers are dead. All your brothers are dead? Yeah, these Marx Brothers are all dead. So you're the only remaining grandson? That's right. Then this comedy better be good. It is good.
Starting point is 01:23:59 And it's topical, Ben. A lot of these comics, they just say whatever, and it's not topical. This is topical comedy. Good. I once shot a teenager in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I'll never know. But he was carrying skittles and iced tea, so it was justified. There's jokes like this.
Starting point is 01:24:17 You see, they make you think about society. Wait a second. The first part was an actual joke. That was a groucho joke. Oh, that's a real groucho joke? I was going to say, it's an amazing joke. I borrow sometimes from my grandfather. And then what do you do to the end of it?
Starting point is 01:24:31 And then I put on some social commentary on it. But that doesn't make any sense, the end part? Well, I believe it's a Trayvon Martin reference. Thank you. Can you give me another? Sure. I saw this movie, 12 Years a Slave. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:24:44 More like two and a half hours bummed out. You see that? Because it was a depressing movie. Yeah. Is this still the joke I shot up? Oh, sorry, it ended. 12 Years a Slave. Have you ever thought about saying the end after your punchline?
Starting point is 01:24:57 No, I haven't, but I guess I will. You should. I hate to be an asshole, but you should. It would really help. Can we hear another joke? Make sure the next joke doesn't have the words the end in the actual joke, because then we'd be confused. Okay.
Starting point is 01:25:08 Okay. You know, we're in Hollywood. A lot of gay people here. No. I mean, I have nothing against it, but you know, it's true. And you know, people always ask me, what do I think about gay rights? Well, I like gay rights. I like gay lefts.
Starting point is 01:25:21 It's the middle I'm not thrilled about, because that's where the penis is. The end. I don't know that you needed the sentence right before the end. I think we got it. Were you guys talking about Bruce Jenner earlier? Who? No. Bruce Jenner.
Starting point is 01:25:37 Let me tell you about Bruce Jenner. This guy has had so much surgery on his face. When he sneezes, he comes out of his nose. The end. That means the skin has been pulled up so much that now his penis is somewhere where his nose is. I think the end makes them all so funny. I like the end.
Starting point is 01:25:53 I'm saying the end of the end makes it so funny to me. Do you have one more? Really? I have one for you, my friend. Hit the end softly. That means it's going to be Jewish. I know it's going to be a bad one. No, it's not going to be Jewish.
Starting point is 01:26:05 You know, there's no surprise that I fool around with some ladies of the night. You know, and sometimes they're not that clean. So, you know, after I have sex with them, some people refer to my house as house of flies. The end. Because flies are shooting out of their vagina because it's so dirty. I mean, that's what we suppose. There's a set up of a joke.
Starting point is 01:26:27 You say you know a lot. I've noticed. You know. I don't know if we do though. I hate to be the asshole. I don't know if we do know. Yeah. I have a runner.
Starting point is 01:26:35 I'm going to run all my house of lies jokes. Oh boy. I can't believe you have house of lies jokes. House of ties. Oh good. House of ties. Both ties. Funny ties.
Starting point is 01:26:44 Piano ties. All kinds of ties. Yeah. We got house of mice. A lot of people. He's lost me. A lot of people have problems with mice these days. And then so if you have too many, you can call it a house of mice.
Starting point is 01:26:55 I got another one here. House of styes. No. It's a house full of people. They have styes in their eyes. And that reminds me of another one. House of eyes. This is when you go to some place and no one talks here, but they keep staring at you.
Starting point is 01:27:09 I got another one. House of Bill Nye's. The science guys? This is a house full of Bill Nye's and science guys. Say the end after all of them. I don't know what's happening. Shit. That's good.
Starting point is 01:27:22 Oh my goodness. Benny, it's a pleasure to be here. Huge. I've been trying stand up and that's the point. You know the economic downfall. It's not bad. It takes a while to get good at stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:32 It's a very difficult process. I don't know. For the first time in a beginner, it's not bad. I want to shut up papusa in my pajamas. How it got in my pajamas? I'll never know because it's a papusa. It's a little empanada. I got it.
Starting point is 01:27:44 I know what a papusa is. So it has to kind of take my pajamas. It's a tiny empanada. Cut out the fabric and make a little pajamas. You know when your grandfather did this joke, he hasn't said the end yet. He hasn't said the end yet. Oh sorry. The end.
Starting point is 01:27:54 Okay. When your grandfather did this joke, it was just so simple. He just said, I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I'll never know. That's funny. He didn't have to say the end. That's perfect. Everyone knew it was the end because that's all the information you need.
Starting point is 01:28:07 In the old days, you could make jokes like this. Now kids want more. More info, more info, internet. Now they have the Louis CKs, the shocking comedians who use shocking language. They have a shocking comedian. I don't know. I like Louis CK, but in my day, we didn't call our kids cunts and whatnot. If you had a kid, you sent them away to school and you had your wife take care of them.
Starting point is 01:28:35 He didn't call them dicks or cunts or whatever he's doing. Got it. You know what I mean? Got it. That's more of a, that's more of a, yeah. You now don't have to say the end after every sentence, by the way. He knows he gets a laugh. He's learning.
Starting point is 01:28:47 It's working. It is working. If it ain't broke, right? You're the end comedian. Yeah. Stop doing that to your mic. Stop spittling with it. If you're listening at home and you're sitting there having a little eggnog by the fireplace.
Starting point is 01:28:58 I guess eggnog from January. The expired eggnog. Leftovers. Yeah. There's another hint. If you want eggnog year round, just put it in the freezer. That's a hint. That's something everybody knows.
Starting point is 01:29:11 Refrigerate your goods. That's something so they don't expire. What are you saying? That's a hint for a little. If you want clean clothes. I'm glad this guy isn't at my shows because if I have to explain every single joke to every single audience member, you know, I won't get home till March. The end.
Starting point is 01:29:27 What happens if you're doing the show in March? Well, then I won't get home till next March. That makes sense. So, Coco, you want to be a comedian. I mean, it's a life change for you. I mean, that's a big thing, you know? Like, how do you make your money is my question. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:43 Because you can't, like at the beginning when we did comedy and soon we said we just got it. It took me years until I made money. Sure. Did you make anything on your business? Was there a fire? I can't remember exactly. There was a fire.
Starting point is 01:29:53 Did you burn it down? There's a lot of vinyl in that place. Wax burns quick. That's right. It was a terrible fire. It ruined all my vinyl. It ruined all my tape. As it turns out, there's no kind of media that survives fire.
Starting point is 01:30:04 I thought if I turned everything into CDs, it would live forever. No, but can I tell you, if you put it on the Internet, it probably would have. Yeah, the cloud. I hate to be an asshole, yeah. I should have put it on the cloud. Yeah, buddy. I mean, it's fantastic, this whole thing, the cloud. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:17 Sounds like a setup. Keep going. Let's see how it ends. It's fantastic, this whole thing, the cloud. Keep going. Riff. Riff on this. Yeah, go.
Starting point is 01:30:25 This is what a comedian does. Go. Yeah, you saw a good reaction from us, so keep going. Okay. There's a good reaction on it. Yeah. Sure. I wonder if you could sleep on it.
Starting point is 01:30:33 And like a little baby sleeping on a cloud. The end. Oh, wow. That's an unexpected turn. Raceway Park. I love the end. I love the end. You got to keep that.
Starting point is 01:30:46 I suggest changing 100% of your material, but keep the end. Those are tough notes to take. You know what? You got to hear this kind of stuff when you're starting out, you know? I think after you do one open mic, your first open mic, someone should come over to you and tell you you have to get rid of all of it. You don't think... Is there ever a comedian that did his first open mic and crushed in real life?
Starting point is 01:31:10 I bet they did, but is there any comedian who's been doing it for 10 years, 15 years, who's doing what they did at their first open mic, you think, still? I guess just Coco. I am. See? How many jokes have you written, Coco? I've written like 15 jokes. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:31:23 And I usually tell them all each time. How many minutes is your set for 15 jokes? 15 minutes. 15 minutes. So like a minute of joke. A minute of joke. Cool, man. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 01:31:35 Do you have one more for us? Let me see. Oh, yeah. Here's one that's current. Don't say that's current. Here's a current one. You don't have to say it. Just say it.
Starting point is 01:31:43 I made a killing on Wall Street. I shot one of those hippies at Occupy Wall Street. I probably shouldn't say Wall Street twice on that joke. Also Occupy Wall Street. That's still going on, isn't it, Benny? No? Okay. Wait, is this the joke?
Starting point is 01:31:58 Yeah, we're still waiting. Oh, yeah. I made a killing on Wall Street. We're still waiting, though, because we haven't heard. You probably shouldn't. Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't know I was supposed to front you. I made a killing on Wall Street, guys.
Starting point is 01:32:06 Yeah, I shot one of those hippies at Occupy Wall Street. The end. Ah, thank you. That's what we were waiting for. Oh, my gosh. I'm going to tell you, this business is a little hotter than I thought. Luckily, I got a good name. Coco Max.
Starting point is 01:32:23 How did you get the name Coco, by the way? How do you spell that? I don't know. COA. COA. COA. COA. COA.
Starting point is 01:32:32 So literally like Coco. It's like Coco. Like a drink. Like hot Coco. It's like Coco like a butter. It's like I see his wife. And like what Aaron Neville rubs. Coco Max.
Starting point is 01:32:42 Name one Aaron Neville song. Yo, real quick. Uh, I know that one about cotton. Tell it like it is. You know that song? I don't know that. Coco, do you know that song? I bet.
Starting point is 01:32:53 I know. I know. That's a great song. One of my favorite. Tell it like it is. Yeah. How does that one go? Coco.
Starting point is 01:33:01 That's what you're saying. Tell it like it is. Okay. Coco does a crazy good Aaron Neville. I love Coco's Aaron Neville. Wow. I've met Aaron Neville. I don't know much, but I know I love you.
Starting point is 01:33:12 You're turning into Sammy Davis. Well, that's Coco singing. I need to know. That's the end. How about this? How about we, you can have it. I'm going to give it to you. How about we do this?
Starting point is 01:33:25 We set each other up and someone else does do the punchline. Okay. Okay. You only have 10 seconds to think of punchline. If you don't, if you can't think of it in 10 seconds, you have to go like this. I'm a dumb, dumb. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:35 Here we go. So Coco set me up. We'll go around the room until it gets back to you. Okay. Perfect. Give me a real setup. Don't give me a fucking crazy lunatic one. What do you call a monkey with amnesia?
Starting point is 01:33:50 I don't know the punchline it is by the way. I know. I'm supposed to think of it. I'm supposed to think of it. Okay. You call it oranga tang, you say? I don't know. Okay.
Starting point is 01:34:03 Let me try. Oh, let me try. Same joke or different one? Same joke. All right. What do you call a monkey with amnesia? I forget. Oh, that's perfect.
Starting point is 01:34:11 I'm going to give you a new one. That's a great one. Okay. All right. So every, chime in if you have, it would be better. Okay. Because I just blew that one. A monster on a skateboard.
Starting point is 01:34:25 Oh, ogre. I'm thinking ogre. Okay. Which makes me think of Shrek. Which makes me think of Shrek and Fiona. What about? Which, skateboard tricks are called like, oh, I wish I knew a skateboard trick or a skateboard company or I don't know anything about skateboards.
Starting point is 01:34:42 They have four wheels. Is this the joke? No, I'm just, I'm thinking out loud as I, it helps me sort of write jokes. Do you have anything Coco? A monster on a skateboard. Yeah. Over a Winfrey. You can use Rope of Winfrey for most any punchline.
Starting point is 01:34:59 What are you doing? What was the joke before? What do you call chimpanzee with amnesia? Oh, no. Don't say that. Don't say that. Don't say that. Don't say that.
Starting point is 01:35:07 Way too soon. Way too soon. I was trying to remember what the first joke was. I wasn't trying to. Come on. One more. I gotta ask you for that one. A monkey with amnesia?
Starting point is 01:35:15 Yeah. Davey Jones. Okay. Not bad. Oh, not Davey. Mickey Dolan. Mickey Dolan. Because he's probably Coco now anyway at this point.
Starting point is 01:35:24 One more set up. We gotta get one. Three funny people here. Okay. What do you call a nun who has the highest pole vault of all time? What do you call a nun who has the highest pole vault of all time? What do you call a nun who has the highest pole vault of all time? Closer to God?
Starting point is 01:35:47 Okay. Not bad. Coco? Sister pole vault. I'm going to go with virgin records. You say you're so funny, son of a bitch. You work from the back forward. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:36:09 I don't know. You work from the back forward. Don't say I don't know. It's not cheating. It's not cheating, man. That's funny as shit. Eating is not cheating. That's funny as shit.
Starting point is 01:36:17 Eat and ain't cheating. Number nine. And of course we ended with eat and ain't cheating. Of course. Of course. EAC. EAC. So that's Bill Clinton.
Starting point is 01:36:29 He says it so much that he has to. He has to. Yeah. This is like WTF or BRB for him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He just walks around saying EAC and people go, all right, Bill. We know. Eat and ain't cheating.
Starting point is 01:36:42 All right. We have to take a break. When we come back, we will release the Kraken again. We'll Kraken to your top eight. We'll release. Wait, when did we put the Kraken back in its pan or what? We never do. There's so many Kraken's running around here.
Starting point is 01:36:54 There's more. I thought it was just the Kraken. The Kraken. What I mean to say is the Kraken that I'm about to release. It's not just the titular Kraken. The eponymous Kraken. Fuck you. No.
Starting point is 01:37:07 All right. We'll be right back with more Comedy Big Mac after this. Hey, guys, have you checked out Ear Wolf's new sister network, Wolf Pop yet? What is Wolf Pop?

Starting point is 01:38:30 I enjoy doing these shows. You know what? I do, too. Why else would we do it? I've really been looking forward to it. Yes. Why else would we do it? I mean, we could close up shop right now.
Starting point is 01:38:41 But we enjoy it. What was that? I don't know. There was a weird noise. Engineer Cody Sam slipped out the back jack. He didn't mean to be coy, Roy, but okay. All right. This is on the countdown.
Starting point is 01:38:57 This is episode eight. Number eight. It's not episode eight. It's number eight on the countdown. Anyway, episode eight will be going way back. Yeah, boy. Probably not a great episode. Not a great episode, I would say, going all the way back to eight.
Starting point is 01:39:10 That's back to the days of Comedy Death Ray. Comedy Death Ray 101 point. Whatever. What did we use to be on 105 point 105, the ducket 98.7, something like that. Body temperature 98 degree 98.6. This is episode 283. Can you guess which one this is, Paul? I can.
Starting point is 01:39:37 Okay, then do it. Hmm. Yeah. 283. The last we heard was 263. That was the first episode of the year. So we're talking 20 Eps later. 20 Eps later.
Starting point is 01:39:52 I was doing bonus Eps around here, so you can probably say I was doing five. Five. Five. Five. Five. Five. Five. Five.
Starting point is 01:40:04 Five. Five. Five. Five. Five. Five. Five. Five.
Starting point is 01:40:12 Five in March. I can't think about. Five in April. So this is probably the end of April. April. Which, what does the end of April mean to Comedy Bang Bang? It's our anniversary. Anniversary show.
Starting point is 01:40:24 This is the anniversary to you. It's perfect. This was the fifth anniversary show. Hard to believe. Hard to believe that we would do this so many years. In a row. Oh, yeah. Not taking breaks.
Starting point is 01:40:44 No. Not taking three years on, three years off. Not taking sabbaticals. One for me, one for them. Yeah, you did this other podcast, it's super smart. This had Jessica Sinclair on it. Lenin Parham. Jessica Sinclair.
Starting point is 01:40:59 We know them. Lenin Parham. Course from Playing House, which USA just picked up. Congratulations. That's right. Congratulations to them. BFF still canceled. So sorry.
Starting point is 01:41:09 But they may pick it up at some point. They may. Who knows? We have Jason Manzuchus on the show. We have the aforementioned Lauren Lapkus is on this episode, Matt Besser and Paul Rustin Neil Campbell. But the part that we are going to hear is we're going to hear when one of our old friends, Mike the Janitor, came in.
Starting point is 01:41:31 Now, let's set this up a little bit because... Good luck to you. Mike the Janitor is played by you. And you walked into the room and we all said, damn. Hot for Teacher started playing. Everyone looked over their sunglasses at me. You walked in and I kind of mouthed, who are you going to play and you motioned to me, you pick.
Starting point is 01:42:04 Oh, yeah. That's right. For whatever reason, I can't remember why at the time. I was completely out of loss because I felt like I'd done every character a little recently because you were recording a lot of episodes. I believe I was filming the show and so we were doing a lot of episodes concurrently. Banking them. We were banking them.
Starting point is 01:42:25 So you had been doing it a lot at this point. You maybe felt not burnout, but you've been doing a lot of things. I couldn't decide who would be an appropriate character to bring back. So you just said you pick and I don't know why, but I said, oh, Mike the Janitor is here. He has a very weird choice. Very weird choice. A character you don't do often. I think I'd done it once before.
Starting point is 01:42:46 Once before and I don't think you've done it since. No. But I enjoy him. I was listening to it today trying to figure out this clip and I was like, this guy's got to come back. For some reason, I feel like Mike the Janitor may have made three appearances on the show. Maybe. I could be wrong.
Starting point is 01:43:00 Yeah. But Mike the Janitor is a very simple guy. I'm sure we'll hear it in this clip. All he wants to do, he just has one thing out of life to clean up. All he wants to do is just clean up after other people, clean their filth. But the only thing he wants in return, the only thing he asks is a paycheck for doing that and health benefits and full dental. Now on this clip, we have Jason Manzukas.
Starting point is 01:43:25 People know from the league. He plays Rafi and we also have Tracy Reardon, our good friend. Lauren Lapkas playing Tracy Reardon who is the 16-year-old girl who has her butt pierced. She works for Baskin Robbins. She has a dead grandmother. And she has two jobs. Oh yeah. Askin Robbins and Claire.
Starting point is 01:43:41 That's right. Piercing people. Now, previous to this on the previous episode, I believe, Tracy, I believe this is germane to the clip we're about to hear, she talks about T-shirts where she is going to have her famous phrases with something on the front and something on the back. So the first part of a phrase on the front, then the other part of the phrase on the back. So like, help me on the front, Rhonda on the back. So I believe that comes up.
Starting point is 01:44:09 Is this the first instance of this? No, no, no. We had talked about it before. But it comes up and you may not know what we're talking about unless. That's why it's germane. So this is Mike the janitor, Jason Manzukas and Tracy Reardon. This episode is like two hours long and it has so many great clips, but this is the one that we chose.
Starting point is 01:44:29 You know, of course, it has Matilda Bessarina, it has the Bachelor Brothers, and it has Wampler and Wampler and, oh, fuck, who's Lenin Blisler? Blisler, geez. But this is the one that we're going to pick. This is, of course, Mike the janitor, and this is your number eight. Number eight. In any case, someone just walked in to the show. It's our fifth anniversary episode and someone just came in and, you know, we want to-
Starting point is 01:44:57 Let's find out who it is. We want to say hello to the person. I mean, it's been five years that we- Yeah, it's been five years that we've been doing- It's been. I mean, we all know who it is. We all know who it is. Because we're looking at the person.
Starting point is 01:45:08 And yet we want the person to announce themselves because this is a special anniversary show. And of course we know it's Mike the janitor. Hey, he's been here for five years. Hey, Mike. What's up, guys? We've been up stuff. Good to see everybody. I can't believe you followed us to the new studio.
Starting point is 01:45:23 Yeah, good luck trying to shake me off. I'll always find you. I'll always find the studio available. You work here now? Oh, hello, young lady. How do you do? Tracy Reardon. Do you remember we almost went to a prom together?
Starting point is 01:45:33 I do. But then I went with Scott instead. Sawie. You were on that show? What? What show? Never mind. Yeah, we had a whole competition with David Wayne.
Starting point is 01:45:42 I forgot that. Wayne Days, my favorite web series. Was that the last time I saw you, Mike? Well, I've seen you around the halls. I think so, yeah. Well, obviously around the halls. And of course I have heard my gaze, Mr. Rockerman, because you are my superior. Of course.
Starting point is 01:45:53 What I do is I clean people's garbage, and all I ask in return is a paycheck. Yeah, of course. It's all I ask. And a healthy one. That's the only thing. It's my life's work. I clean people's garbage. The only thing I ask in return is a paycheck.
Starting point is 01:46:06 Health benefits. Health benefits, of course. Are you in a union? Social security. Oh, yeah. You're in a union? Janet is union. Local 402.
Starting point is 01:46:14 Powerful. Oh, yeah. There's 400. Fighting 402? Fighting 402. Uh, uh, uh, uh, excellence is our aim. And of course, uh, keeping people out and keeping us in. Is your game.
Starting point is 01:46:30 Is your game. Oh, yeah, I forgot. Wait, I know we're already done talking about this, but I feel like Weenie Days is finally spelled correctly. Wait, you have been holding onto that since that time? Well, I could have stopped thinking about it just now. Yeah. Finally, they spell it the way that you would spell.
Starting point is 01:46:46 I had to tell everyone. Yeah. Look at Mike. It's so great to see you. It's great to be here cleaning up filth left behind by other people. Hey, did you see me in Zookus's dukuses? On a regular basis. I did go to the bathroom just earlier.
Starting point is 01:47:00 Oh, don't I know it? Oh, yeah. You cleaned up a Zooks dukes? Getting wheeled. Oh, I didn't know it had its own segment. Play the theme for that. Yep. Hey, Brett.
Starting point is 01:47:08 Donkey. Brett, drop it in. Come on, donk. Let's hear the, there it is. There it is. There's the theme. The Zooks dukes. It sounds like a big poop poop.
Starting point is 01:47:16 It's just the modern day Fred noise. That's the sound that comes out. Donk. But Mike, it's been a while. It's been a while. It's been quite a while. It's been a while. It's been a while since I've been here.
Starting point is 01:47:25 Yeah. Yeah, I haven't been here in the studio quite some time. You've kept it relatively clean. I mean, it's a new place. Yeah. As soon enough, you'll tarnish it with your disgusting habits and your guests that are less than animals will come in here and disrespect every public place they can find. Put on your shades.
Starting point is 01:47:46 Whoa, he got really cool. I just wanted to put on my shades for some reason and just, yeah, anyway, fold them up. Oh, they're so tiny now. Thank God we have a visual bit to do during this pocket. Mr. Ockerman, because he's a very sophisticated gentleman, he has sunglasses that fold not just the regular way where those little arms will fold in. You can put them in a pocket. They also fold at the bridge so you can make it into a less convenient ball of sunglasses.
Starting point is 01:48:16 They have like seven points of articulation. They're like the world's best action figures. They're like a K-turn that you put on your face. But if you only had one eye, it'd be great because you wouldn't unfold the other side. Sure, you just got it like this. Why don't you get it on a stick and hold it up like a lawn yet? Look it up. Look it up.
Starting point is 01:48:34 I've had some college. Janet has a fancy. Really? How much college did you have? I went to school in Boston for just about eight years. Oh, a school in Boston? Yeah, it's just I went to a school in Boston for about eight years. Were you a Janet at the time?
Starting point is 01:48:48 We know what you're talking about. No, I was not a Janet at the time. Well, you know what? Here's the thing. I was a math professor. Oh boy. I was a genius math professor. You were the professor?
Starting point is 01:48:58 Yeah. I taught math there. Were you ever confronted with like a degree of excellence in someone who wasn't even a student that you felt like challenged to? Do you have to do some sort of a swap situation when? Flicky Friday. Well, now these are two different things. The swap situation where everyone retains their own consciousness.
Starting point is 01:49:22 Right. And physical. Just you had to change jobs because someone was better at it. Well, you know, here's the thing. Is this a body switch? Like the movie Switch with Ellen Barkin? Is it a body switch or is it just a swapping job? I'm going to need four more examples of body switching movies.
Starting point is 01:49:38 Searching on Ferdy. Okay. Right. That's not a body. It's not a body switch. Body grow. Body grow. Body grow.
Starting point is 01:49:46 Give me three more examples of body grow movies. Okay. 13, go ahead and 30. 13, go ahead and 30 and big are not body switch movies. Body grow movies. Body grow movies. I've read every page on IMDb, by the way. I know everything about IMDb.
Starting point is 01:49:59 You memorized IMDb? Well, she's only seen one movie. I've only seen Blue Jasmine. I know everything about every movie. What's my pro rating? What's my star meter? Well, you're barely on it because you're a janitor. You're like five billion.
Starting point is 01:50:10 That's not bad for a janitor. I should be on there. If you're even on there, that's amazing. You are because you are appearance. You are yourself on some show. That's right. You're as good as yourself. It was a tribute.
Starting point is 01:50:22 It was a great Stanley. But you were sweeping up at the end. XCR. And I was sweeping up at the background. It said you were on blind date as well. But you added yourself. I did do a blind date. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:34 Did you? Oh, we have a fifth wheel? That's a different show, right? I need four more examples of dating shows. Cheaters. Cheaters? That's not really a dating show. They don't want to date.
Starting point is 01:50:47 No, cheaters. They're dating. They're dating somebody. You've been caught dating. You've been caught dating the long prison. That's a TV show. You've been caught dating. So you think you can date.
Starting point is 01:50:57 You know what happened to cheese. So you think you can date, but you can't because you won't. The original host. And you don't. Tommy, what was his name? Bahama? Tommy Grant. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 01:51:07 Tommy Bahama. He had to have a show, but I think he'd be great. He needs his own show. I love his fashion. Late back style. Kill a fashion. Love it. Love it.
Starting point is 01:51:16 Wicca hats. I would like... Did I straw the wicca? What are they? That sounds like heavy. It's really heavy. It's like a chair on your head. Are you saying Wicca hats?
Starting point is 01:51:26 Wicca hats. I know. Don Wickels. We heard about Mr. Wickels by the way. That's a last week show anyway. Yummy. Is that your catchphrase? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:37 And what's on the back of that t-shirt? My baby loves it. Very nice. Yummy on the front. Baby loves it on the back. Oh, you know about these t-shirts. I love t-shirts. Well, he hooded under that person.
Starting point is 01:51:48 Weird and teased? Weird and teased, of course. I'm dying for someone to make me. I'm sending him to me for flea. Yeah, really? How do they get ahold of you? I'm on Twitter now. You are on Twitter?
Starting point is 01:51:56 Yeah. Oh, wow. I'm on Twitter. I had Tracy hit it. You can find me. How's it spelled? It's spelled T-O-A-C-I. T-I.
Starting point is 01:52:04 T-O-A-C-I. T-I. T-I. A-E-A-D-O-N. You think about it for a second. You think about it for a second. Yeah. T-U-A-O.
Starting point is 01:52:12 Is there a little heart over the eye for Tracy? If I could do that, I have to learn how to use that on the computer. Do you like emojis? Thank you, Daddy. Oh. Oh. That made me uncomfortable. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:52:26 Oh, boy. Just a love story between a 17-year-old girl and a janitor. A very old janitor of a certain age. A janitor of a certain age. We don't need to get into that. Oh, no. Look, we're all in our 50s. A janitor of a certain age.
Starting point is 01:52:43 Everyone here is like 65 white. Guys like us, except for the young lady, guys like us in our 50s. Oh, yeah. We weren't born in the 50s. No, I was born in the 70s, so I'm 70. Born in the 50s. Oh, is that a police? The police?
Starting point is 01:52:56 Yeah. How do you know that song? Because I know music, baby. She knows all music. Very few movies. But every IMDb page. That's right, Daddy. Listen.
Starting point is 01:53:05 What the fuck were we talking about? I don't know. Body switching. Body switching. We never got to it. Was it a body switch or was it an actual? It was neither a body switch or a normal body grow. Was it a cop swap?
Starting point is 01:53:18 Was it a cop swap? It was not a job swap, either. It was a wife swap. Wife swap? Yes. You had a wife swap with a janitor? Yes. And because this was unheard of, the wife swap was so secure.
Starting point is 01:53:30 Wife swap was so successful, we stayed that way. I had to get a new job. Why couldn't you just? Why? Why could? Just because you were married to a different woman now? This wife. No husband of hers is going to be a professor.
Starting point is 01:53:45 Oh, interesting. And Harvard. Oh, I said it. Oh. But you love her. Yeah, I love her. I love her, man. How long ago was this?
Starting point is 01:53:54 This was going on 25 years ago. Oh, wow. You guys kissing stuff? Oh, yeah. What's your favorite position with her? I like to do it standing up. That's why we have no children. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:54:08 If you stay up, you don't get pregnant. That's right. But that's your favorite position because you can't lay down. I can't lay down. You shouldn't lay down. But I shouldn't. How do you sleep? On my face.
Starting point is 01:54:20 Okay. By the way, Mike, didn't you undergo some sort of a Freaky Friday situation with Andrew Lloyd Webber once? Well, Freaky Friday, you could call it that. I did a body switch or an identity switch. Well, what do you call it when you make some masonry fall on someone's head and then you dress up in their clothes and pretend to be them? Weakened at Bernie's.
Starting point is 01:54:42 What is that called? Weakened at Bernie's. No, that's what you're having with your grandmother. So you took over his identity. Weakened at Bernie's. Wait, Bernie was just a guy dressed up as Bernie? It's to be determined. Well, Reardon is presently weakened at Bernie's in her grandmother who died in the home that
Starting point is 01:55:02 they share. Natural causes. Natural causes. But I needed to sign my school forms and stuff, so I used her hand to sign my forms. But it's your own handwriting. Okay. You and the guy must have been texting. Well, hey, I'm no texter.
Starting point is 01:55:16 It would seem to me that if you're going to impersonate an old person, you definitely must have the thin, spidery handwriting of the elderly. The shaky every loop having several mini loops. Here's two things. If you're old, your handwriting gets shaky. If you're fat, your voice gets deeper. That's two things. Right there.
Starting point is 01:55:38 There's two things. Just two things I know. What's your favorite card, Tracy? That I have? In your collection. She collects cards. I collect cards. You got a card that don't fold.
Starting point is 01:55:47 If they open, they... Non-folding cards. I got to make a limit on my collection. Yeah. But my favorite card is this business card I got from Witch Witch. Witch Witch? Witch Witch, is it? Is that a sandwich?
Starting point is 01:55:59 Witch Witch sandwiches. Yeah. Witch Witch. Witch Witch. Okay. Who gave you this business card? The manager? Yes.
Starting point is 01:56:07 Now, you're not saying Rich Rich. No, it says sandwich is sandwich. Yeah. Sandwich sandwich. Which sandwich? Sandwich sandwich. No, it's Jay Sandwich. No, it's guys get it right.
Starting point is 01:56:16 If Little Caesar was to start selling sandwiches, they would say sandwich sandwich. But it's Witch Sandwich, not Sandwich Sandwich. Is that the noise? No, that's Little Caesar. You got to avoid the noise. You got to avoid the noise. You got to avoid the noise. Oh!
Starting point is 01:56:28 He's a pest. I've been welcoming him. What? You've invited him in? I've been seeking him out. Well, that's like... Am I doing the wrong thing? That's like playing...
Starting point is 01:56:36 Avoid him. That's like press your luck. Playing press your luck and screaming all the whammies. All the whammies, right? That's how you play. Oh my God, avoid the noise, baby. How do you know about the noise? Because I know everything.
Starting point is 01:56:48 You're wise beyond who he is. I'm wise in the past. So what is your favorite card? Why did this guy give you this as a business card? And then I'll go next. He was the manager. He had a business card. What I love about it, he said it has a cartoon of a sandwich on it.
Starting point is 01:57:05 And to me, it's so special. Okay. Is it like a caricature of a sandwich? It's like a joke picture of a sandwich. Like, what a sandwich would be like if it had a big nose? Does the sandwich have a big nose? No, but like a carrot show. Is it a deli sandwich?
Starting point is 01:57:17 No, baby. It's a hot sandwich. Why do you make that? Because of your big nose deli sandwich? Is this an anti-Semitic sandwich? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Oh my God, that's so rude. What if it was an anti-Semitic sandwich shop called Anti-Samanic?
Starting point is 01:57:31 It was an anti-Sambic sandwich. Oh, I bet you'd like to be in an anti-Sambic sandwich. Two anti-Sambic's humping me from each side? Okay. And they're both going lonely on the island. That's what they're saying. What if one said lonely on the island? Lonely planet.
Starting point is 01:57:49 What? What? Just travel books? Maybe one says Blue Planet? Blue Planet. What if one says Planet Money? What if one says Digital Short? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:58:00 Then more like Digital Long, right? He could have had that. Yeah, sure. He's good on the fly like that. Let him do it every once. Oh, yeah. You know, it's his party. I love Digital Longs.
Starting point is 01:58:10 Yeah. Movies? No. Oh. It's too long. It's too long for her blood. For her blood. Digital Longs are like TV shows.
Starting point is 01:58:18 Yeah. Digital Short's are right up your alley. They're right up my butt. That's what your alley is. My goodness. So, where is that on? Is it top of the pile for you? That's for sure.
Starting point is 01:58:31 Top of the pile. That's where that card. Do you sleep right on top of that card? I sleep right on top of it. I sleep on all my cards. Sure. I took that for greater. It's a given.
Starting point is 01:58:39 That's what Mike Tyson said when he saw his first wife. That's a given? Mm-hmm. Wabbingivans. Then he clarified. And then everyone said, oh, Mike Tyson. I understand you. Oh, you know what I love is Wabbing from Howard Stern.
Starting point is 01:58:52 You started talking like Mike Tyson. Robin Quivers. I pity the fool. Give me that ear. That's a B.A. Barakas situation. We talked about that last week. What's interesting is you've been recently B.A. Barakas by Ms. Listler. I didn't really know what she was saying.
Starting point is 01:59:08 Yeah, no, she's saying she drugged you, kidnapped you, and kept you out of the city for a week. I knew that, but what's B.A. Barakas? Well, you read every IMDB page, so you must know. What do you think it is? I think it's like a man who looks like a barracuda. Interesting. Like he used to be a barracuda and became a person? Yeah, by a science.
Starting point is 01:59:29 By a science. By a science. By a science. A singular science. One of the scientists. One of the scientists. Mr. Miyagi. Oh boy, oh boy.
Starting point is 01:59:38 Save it for you. Is that a sandwich chop as well? Mr. Miyagi sandwich chop? Yeah, they make only fish sandwiches. Here's what I would like. In the Mr. Miyagi sandwich chop, if he slices the sandwich... You gotta do it. Karate chop.
Starting point is 01:59:51 And then he puts it in wax on, wax off paper. Yes. And you have to wear a kimono. I wax on. You take wax off. Yep. Great. He says he has a sandwich to you.
Starting point is 02:00:01 He's very polite. Pat, you also... You also try to explain it in case you accidentally eat the sandwich with the wax paper. Wax on. You take the wax off. You eat it. Do you think... Hey, hey, hey.
Starting point is 02:00:12 Stop. No, no, no. Do you think... Excuse me. Do you think that that has happened where people... Oh, I think there's plenty of people who are giving a sandwich in wax paper and think this is what I'm supposed to eat? I eat paper for fun.
Starting point is 02:00:25 Weird. Well that's a different thing dear. That's a different thing. I'm talking about someone who's not... They don't have like a severe mental disability. They're like the lowest you can be intelligence wise. Like a 98 IQ. Just a guy who's dumb.
Starting point is 02:00:40 Yeah. And he like gets the sandwich and he's like, uh, this is an unusual looking sandwich. I've never seen one like this before but you know, I'm willing to try new things. He's open minded. He's very dumb but he's open minded. He's like, this sandwich has a weird skin on it. It's got a strange texture. It's got a skin on top.
Starting point is 02:00:54 Dumb people are open minded because they don't know no better. Yeah. Well to that guy, I think the sandwich is like eating the organs of the skin. You're biting through the skin like an orange to get to the meaty goodness of the sandwich. The orange organs. You know, like I don't eat the outside of the orange but somebody might think they should. Or the pineapple. And be like, oh, what's this?
Starting point is 02:01:12 And they bite into it. And they're like... Ouch. You know what? I like the inside bit. I don't like this outside bit. It hurts your mouth. No, you're thinking of a pineapple.
Starting point is 02:01:20 What'd you say? A banana. I said pineapple. That's what you got. Let's all do it. Here we go. Banana. I didn't say anything at all.
Starting point is 02:01:28 Wait. Try it again. One, two, three. I don't care. Pineapple. That's very disgusting. Oh, you're a scamp and a scoundrel. I don't care for you.
Starting point is 02:01:37 Today, I want to fight. Whoa. What's it got into you? I don't know. She's feisty. She used to be an introvert. No, last time you just wanted to go slow dancing. You know what's different.
Starting point is 02:01:46 A nice prom song. What's that? The Dry Hump. Oh, she's got the Dry Hump out. I've been waiting for this. A sexual awakening is giving you like a real attitude. My flower burst. I thought that you took it burst.
Starting point is 02:01:56 Oh, gross. Not bloom to blossom. I thought you turned the attitudes off. Gross. Doing sex, I turned the attitudes off and the personalities on. I turned the lights off and the music way up. Whoa. And then I get at it.
Starting point is 02:02:09 Sexual wise. Oh, boy. What's your wife's name? Her name is June. Oh, well. You hump it all night? Yeah. Cool.
Starting point is 02:02:17 Do you guys have sex every night? Any other questions? Do you guys have sex every night? Every single night? Yeah. Every single night? Because you have to. Because that's a healthy marriage is whether you want to or not.
Starting point is 02:02:27 Someone's going to get it. You have to join life forces. That's right. It was in our vows. It was. We vowed in front of God and everyone to have sex every single night. After, to be fair. Wait, let me ask you this, actually.
Starting point is 02:02:38 Did you actually marry your wife or in the wife swap, did you just, like, did you just get a new wife? Because you married another woman technically. I thought that the wife shop would be, we'd just go live there. Yeah. We'd go out in a van. Like the TV show Wiveswap. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:02:55 It turns out this was not the televised version of Wiveswap. Is that what you thought was happening? I assumed it was the TV show. 25 years ago, that show was on the air. I kept saying, hey, when do I sign a release? This must be a TV show. What, is it going to be on after Bonnie Miller? And then in the van, a bag was put over my head and a marriage ceremony was performed.
Starting point is 02:03:16 And then I got out of the van and they said, this is a new wife. How'd you kiss? What van? Yeah. Why was the bag put over your head? Was it, like, a scarecrow situation and Dr. Jonathan Crane? Yeah, I think they were trying to make me into a supervillain by putting a scary bag on my head.
Starting point is 02:03:32 And did it work? For a time. What was your power? For a time I terrorized Boston. I terrorized Boston. Wait, you didn't terrorize them last year during that marathon, did you? No. Please.
Starting point is 02:03:45 I just wanted to make sure. Obviously, your instincts are beyond reproach, but please. Okay, I'm a bit of an investigator. Very, very rude. People will hurt, Scott. Well, he said he terrorized Boston. Those words just mean one thing to me. And not with terrorism.
Starting point is 02:04:01 I just scared people. Are you, were you the, because this is going back to, you said 25 years, are you, were you the supervillain that Carl Yastremsky beat down with a baseball man? Carl Yastremsky. He's a red-size player. Yeah. Was it Yass? Was his bat class.
Starting point is 02:04:18 Now, did he ask the thing? Yes. I got an invitation to go to a party and they said Yass will be there. Oh, yeah? Of course, as soon. Yass mean police. No, Yass, the both control. The band Yass, Allison Moyet.
Starting point is 02:04:31 The band Yass, Allison Moyet. I assumed there was going to be plenty of birth control on hand. Yes. What was the one you said? Vince Clark. I thought Vince Clark. And so I get there and it's just Carl Yastremsky and he's got a bat and he's hitting it in his hand like that.
Starting point is 02:04:45 The reign of terror is over. And I said, how did you know it was me? And he said, you're wearing the bag. Oh. So not only did I not get to hear the dulcet tones on Allison Moyet. Upstairs at Eric's. I also ended up losing a kidney to bat beatings. Bat's got it.
Starting point is 02:05:01 My Carl Yastremsky. What's on the back? My baby loves it. All right. That one's on the back of two suits. Number eight. All right. Number eight is great.
Starting point is 02:05:12 Yeah. It really was. It's a great episode. It's a great episode. And that's all we have time for on this part two. Can you believe it? I can't. Scott, I can't.
Starting point is 02:05:24 But we're going to be back. We're going to be back with part three and part four next week. We'll be back again some day. Oh, next week. Oh, okay. Yeah. That's sooner than I thought. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:05:34 No need to couch it in some day. I thought it was some undetermined time in the future, but you're saying next week. So we're going to melt our snowman. Yeah. We're going to melt it into a puddle. And then hopefully someone will put a hat on us. All right, we'll see you on Monday for part three where we countdown seven, six, five and four.
