Starting point is 00:00:00 I wear my sunglasses at night so I can so I can severely impair my vision. Welcome to comedy bang bang. Thank you to Mr. Prattfall for that catchphrase submission. Mr. Prattfall himself graces us with a catchphrase submission. Unfortunately, I do not believe that one's gonna stick, but keep trying Mr. Prattfall and others, because one of these days we're gonna hit on one, and I'm gonna be saying it every single episode. That is gonna be very, very exciting when that day comes. And speaking of exciting days,
Starting point is 00:00:56 today is very exciting because we have some great guests on the show. By the way, my name is Scott Aukerman. We have coming up a little later, we have someone in publicity. We have a corporate spokesperson. And coming up right now in A-Block, we have a standup comedian.
Starting point is 00:01:15 He's one of the best. He's an old friend of the show. He's been on several times. We shared a hotel room at South by Southwest one year. Please welcome back to the show, Matt Bronger. Hi, Matt. Thank you. Hi, Scott, how are you? I'm doing really good.
Starting point is 00:01:29 Good to see you. I forgot about the hotel South by Southwest times. That's right. Remember those? That was fun. That was fun. That was, this is how old, how long ago that was. That was like the birth of Twitter.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Yeah. We were all kind of- We all joined. Or actually I joined and you showed me how. That's right. Yeah. And you were, and they didn't have their own app at the time and you were like, oh yeah, you have to go to a Twitter client. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:50 And I was like, you have to go to another thing to access the thing? It was so confusing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that must have been the, right around when this show started 15 years or so ago. Around, yeah, absolutely, yeah. Incredible, being paid in hotel rooms. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Incredible. Being paid in hotel rooms.
Starting point is 00:02:05 Yeah. Oh God. Great, great times. And that was like a better hotel, uh, set up than the year, the year I was at South by before. I remember I was in this hotel. It was like, where do you, there are people like where you're staying and you name all these hotels.
Starting point is 00:02:17 And then you go, that's, that's not in Austin. You're, you're so far outside the town. Yeah. And I'd be riding in like vans with bands into the gigs. The first time I ever went there, a promoter hooked us up and basically gave us no info. And I thought, oh wow, we're going to South by Southwest. We'll be able to go see shows, all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:02:38 And he put us up at a Red Roof Inn, probably 10 miles away. And we tried to go into a show and they're like, where's your wristbands? No one gave us anything. It was just purely got in, did a show and then spent our time at the Red Roof Inn. I fell for the okey-doke so many times where they're just like, all right, this pass will get you into everything.
Starting point is 00:02:59 This is a golden pass and you'd have this golden laminate and you go to a show and everyone in line has platinum laminate. Yes. It's always the one you can't. Yes. Yeah. We went in, that was a year I was with David Cross and we went up to a particular band's, the entrance of the venue that we wanted to go into. And they recognized David and they were like, oh, okay, you can come in, but it was none of us.
Starting point is 00:03:20 And so he was like, no, it should be all of us. They go, well, go in this line right here. And we went into that line, which curved around and stuff like this, and it emptied us back out into the street. Kind of a slick move. Yeah. If I was that person that had that job, that was like, do not let anyone in whose face is not on this piece of paper. To come up with that. It was pretty funny where we just had to kind of laugh and say all right back to the red roof with us. Wow. But some good times and you know now of course we're first class hotels. We're A-list. Yeah just private planes. P.J.'s. P.J.' Private helicopters, PHs. I like to eat peanut butter and jelly
Starting point is 00:04:06 in my pajamas on my private jet. Yes. I'm PJ all the way. I'm actually Batman Hook now. Where I have a thing on the back of my suit. That's, it's a Teflon based, like a loop. And then a helicopter comes by and it's a magnet. It's a hook.
Starting point is 00:04:23 And if I don't get outside, I've been pulled through many a roof. But yeah, it's this helicopter with a dangling cord. It just comes right down and you hook yourself right up into it, that is amazing. If you've seen The Dark Knight, yeah, that's where I got the idea. Oh, why so serious?
Starting point is 00:04:37 Yeah, I've seen The Dark Knight. Nice. So what is going on with you? You and I have not seen each other in a little while because we took some years off where we were all cowering in our houses. Sure. Afraid of a little virus, you know, virus that killed a lot of people. So I was afraid of it.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Um, I'm not, I'm not ashamed to say. No, I remember getting, uh, I found it, you know, I would go to, I would go to pharmacies and go, got any extra? You know, cause they were only, cause once they'd pop the top, they, and they'd give it to somebody. You can't stop. You need that delicious vaccine. We need one every week.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Especially the barbecue. Oh. And like, you know, they had two, two, or three in every one, every like dose. Right. And then there would be a little extra. Yes. So I would just be like, did you give one to someone in need?
Starting point is 00:05:21 Cause it was all for the elderly and the, and the deficient. I've understandable. Sure. But like, I was like. But you put on to someone in need? Cause it was all for the elderly and the immunodeficient. I understand. Sure. But like, I was like, put on some jackass style old age makeup. I went full, I went full bad grandpa. Yes. Uh, and I got full bad.
Starting point is 00:05:34 I was never, I went in and was like, do you have any extra? And they're like, yeah, we have, we have, uh, two and I called my wife and she ran, she ran over and over and are, are and our, God, what? Probably eight weeks old baby. Yeah. And we both got it.
Starting point is 00:05:50 And I remember walking out, like I was tearing up because I felt so, because it's one thing if I was still living in a one bedroom apartment, gigging for free hotel rooms, I would be like, afraid, but not as afraid, because there's no baby in the house. Right now you have, you have people that rely on you. Yeah. And, but yeah, I got mine kind of early because I don't know how, but word got around that this one place was delivering the vaccine.
Starting point is 00:06:18 And so I signed up and this is the only time where I feel like my very, very low status of fame kind of helped me. But my friend who told me about it, he went to go get it and they were like, no, you're not on the list and was turned away. And then he told me that I was like, I may as well just go anyway. And I went and the lady said, you're not on the list. And another person went, no, he's fine. And let me in. Wow.
Starting point is 00:06:47 And I was like, oh, okay. I have no confirmation that it was like anything having to do with someone knowing who I was. But I mean, otherwise, why would you say like, no, he's fine? You just, were you like, you know, did you have a backup plan? Like, listen, I'm Meryl Streep's driver. Just trust me on this.
Starting point is 00:07:03 I'm Adam Driver's driver. I'm Adam Driver's Meryl Streep. I don't know what I am. Um, but, uh, yeah, I got it pretty early, earlier than my wife and earlier than most of our friends. And yeah, it was very emotional. Although I will say the place I got it, they, uh, had a big video screen and they were, um, showing the, uh, like, I assume they were holiday videos that this particular hospital made every year.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Okay. One was a parody of the office and you know, they make you wait there 20 minutes to make sure the vaccine doesn't have any effects or whatever. So I saw this parody of the office so many times and they also reenacted the thriller video and I saw that one many, many times. Are you sure you got the vaccine?
Starting point is 00:07:41 I don't know. I don't know if you would, if this might've been an experiment. I might still have long COVID. They sent you through that weird line. I know, different people, but this could be a prank that went on a long, long time. But boy, I mean, I haven't seen you since before then because I feel like a lot of my social relationships just all went away. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:00 And performing went away. Well, we have children now. Yeah, that's true. We didn't even know we had children when I came. Yeah. This is the first time. Neither of us knew that about each other. You're like, what are you even doing? Oh, yeah, I got a four year old daughter.
Starting point is 00:08:10 You're like, I have a two year old. Like what? Yeah, it's crazy. Do you find that your friendships have now, have they been whittled down to other people with children? That's a lot. That's something I hear is what happens. A lot, but I still,
Starting point is 00:08:23 I love my friends who just don't want them. You know, I think you need, I need that. Or it can't happen. I need to have both. Or whatever it is. You sure? Yeah, and it's, it's, it's, it's- The weird cat ladies.
Starting point is 00:08:33 The whole thing of, I saw a comedian that had a premise of like all your, if you want you to have kids, you can't have friends without kids. And it was just like, no, you know, like- Yeah, so you have, I mean, you have- Nice, nice little mix. A lot of them have, we have, we have, we have what we call a quote unquote party parents.
Starting point is 00:08:48 So we'll have like, they'll come to the house and the kids will run around and we'll drink or whatever. Well, also you have a, like only one of you needs to be there at the house. Yes. To what? You know, like just go out with your bros when your wife is watching the kid at night. Oh, my, my wife is like, go out more. Yes. And I always save it for like, I'm just gonna go do sets, I'll go do sets.
Starting point is 00:09:05 That's how I felt for a while, especially the first four months, I was like, no, no, no, no, I'm not going anywhere. And then at a certain point, my wife is like, yeah, please leave this house. I can't be your everything. Yes, exactly. Well, congratulations to you and many
Starting point is 00:09:19 havers to you, of course, and many urkels to you. But what is happening with you, let's catch up on Mike, what is happening with you, let's catch up on Mike, what is happening with you comedically? You're out there doing standup performances again. And you of course are one of the great standup comedians. Thank you. How many specials do you have out there?
Starting point is 00:09:36 I wanna say five maybe? Five specials, are they all hours? Yeah. Five hours of you talking. Maybe and more albums too. More albums. Yeah, and honestly, I'll probably do another album or five. Yeah. Five hours of you talking. Maybe, and more albums too. More albums. Yeah, and like, and honestly, I'll probably do another album or two.
Starting point is 00:09:49 I don't know when I'll do another, I've just been kind of leaning towards just putting stuff out there, just putting stuff on my social media cause it's kind of, it's just the Wild Wild West now. And I don't know how much specials are. Specials aren't special anymore. Yes. They're normals.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Absolutely. It's just, you just stare at this grid and it's kind of like. Do you have any comedy normal out there? I have a comedy regular. I have a comedy, nothing special, nothing special at all. Yeah, who watches these things anyway? Now that said, there have been many comedians on the past few weeks who have been touting their specials
Starting point is 00:10:19 and we love them and I've watched them all. Sure, God bless. They're amazing. But who watches any of these things anymore? The only one I've watched, I watch them, but I've watched them all. God bless. They're amazing. But who watches any of these things anymore? The only one I've watched, I watch them, but I never watch them again. But the only one I've watched more than once recently is David Tells, because just to me, he's just,
Starting point is 00:10:34 Yeah, of course. It's just so fun. I see that influencing you. It's so fun. Yeah, well, I think me, like Kyle Kanane, we started out together. He was like, kind of like our guy, cause it was just so silly and dark in the right ways.
Starting point is 00:10:46 Anyway, but yeah, so they are not special because you kind of don't watch them anymore. Remember the days where you would sit there and you would watch one particular one over and over and over and learn the nuances and the inflections. Yeah, I could do Tommy Davidson's Ilyn and Philly from the beginning to the end.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Really? Yeah, okay, let's hear it. Here we go. He walks up and says, Oh my God. It's too good. And I want to hear an accurate impression. You have to do the accent.
Starting point is 00:11:14 No, I mean, yeah, there's so many, I mean, that's a lot of how one starts a love of comedy then wanting to do it, I'm sure as well. But now it would be insane to go memorize like, someone's standup comedy special. No, no kids do that. But I think it's just, there's good and bad to the accessibility of all entertainment now.
Starting point is 00:11:35 You know, it's just, I feel like it definitely dilutes stuff, but at the same time, there's something for literally everybody out there kind of thing. Yeah, that's the thing. You don't have to feel like, you know, you have nothing to watch or listen to at any time. or literally everybody out there. Yeah, that's the thing. You don't have to feel like, you know, you have nothing to watch or listen to at any time. Like certain times when I was in the middle of nowhere
Starting point is 00:11:50 and just kind of going like, there's no music to listen to, there's nothing to read here. Yeah. What am I doing here? No, now you can find anything. It's overload. It's just overload.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Sensory overlord. But so you're out there doing some dates. Do you do, what do you do? Do you do like the weekend club things or how do you like to do it? I do a mix of clubs and traditionally musical venues and theaters. Oh, so like clubs and stuff like that? Yeah. So I work with, you know, if I go to, you know, what you call a market, like say Austin or Seattle or, you know, New York. I've heard of these cities.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Sure, these are towns. Cities are towns. And you know, all the clubs are booked in that area at that time I've got, it's like, oh, I go out to music venues and go, oh yeah, we like comedians too. So are these like standing shows or? It just varies, it varies.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I work with a lot of the same people again and again, but like I've played a heavy metal bar in Bend, Oregon. And I remember the owner ran out and after the show was like, that was awesome. Wow. And I was like, oh, thanks. He was like, nobody puked. And I was like, that's that. The bar is set. For Bend, Oregon. Yeah. But it was, you know, he'd never had a comedian before. So that's why he was kind of psyched. Yeah. Does he start going like, why am I having all these puking bands every week here?
Starting point is 00:13:08 Let's get these other comedians. Barfy Rick and the pukers. I gotta stop booking them. So how long have you actually been doing it? And where did you actually start? Probably 20 something, maybe 25 years. I started in Chicago in like 1999. The Bears, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Around the Bears and the Bulls. Yes. Yes, exactly. Yeah. These are the places we know in Chicago, the Bears and the Bulls. The two spots. The two places that we all like to go to.
Starting point is 00:13:39 The Bulls are north, the Bears are south. So you started approximately 25 years ago, around circa 1999, that's right. Estimation. Uh-huh. And you know, it's, for those of you out there who wanna be a standup comedian, this is all you gotta do.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Here's your recipe for success. Matt, hit it. You have to start in the late 90s. Okay, good. You have to do standup back when no one's doing standup and no one really cares about it. You have to start in the late 90s. And you have to do standup back when no one's doing standup and no one really cares about it. In fact, clubs are dying all over. And in Chicago, where basically improv
Starting point is 00:14:12 is what people want to go see. 100%. And you are basically the redheaded stepchild, apologies to redheaded stepchildren out there, but it's an expression of the comedy world in Chicago. You can be a redheaded, you can be a stepchild, but if you're both. Not both, please, yes.
Starting point is 00:14:26 Find your real parents. But it was like that, but it was just, we did it for fun, so there was no pressure. We used to go to this place called the Lion's Den, it was an open mic, we'd sign up on Mondays, and by all of us kind of kicking each other in the butt to kind of come up with new stuff all the time, this is a real loose analogy
Starting point is 00:14:46 and not in any way meant to be a comparison, but I think about how, you're gonna get me for this, but Paul and John were always like, I can do a better song than you. The members of NWA were always like, I can write better raps than you can. I can make better beats than you. So the best rock and roll band of all time
Starting point is 00:15:04 and the best hip hop group of all time. Yeah, I mean, that's debatable, of course. Me, Kyle Kanane, Kamil Nanjiani, Hannibal Buress, Pete Holmes, John Roy. We, Emily DeRees, we were like all like, Dwayne Kennedy, we were all like on each other to be like. That's the thing, I think when you start out in any kind of scene, if there is a scene going on, you push each other to.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Exactly. Stretch and you're almost performing for the other people. Yeah. Whose point of view you really respect. Absolutely. More than the audience. And that was, there was, there were no stakes. Cause we'd have a crowd sometimes and sometimes we were.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Sounds like Sunnydale before Buffy got there. Pretty much. Just vampires. But it was like, you know, you can't, I think about how it is with the young people now. The youth today. The stakes are so high. They're so high because your first couple of sets,
Starting point is 00:15:58 you put them online and it's like, they're scrutinized. Like you don't have this time to grow and incubate and become an artist. Don't put your stuff up online unless you've been doing comedy 30, 35 years. I don't know. People make content right off the cuff that's better than some bits.
Starting point is 00:16:14 I know, that's the thing. You'll see a real, what do you call those young people that are really good at something? Why am I? I feel like, what do you call that when you start forgetting things? A prodigy. Yeah, a prodigy. Yeah, when you see a child prodigy
Starting point is 00:16:31 like my good friend, Matt Reif. And he's out there putting content up and he's so good right off the bat. And Matt is, I will say, he's a friend of mine, but it's like one of those things where he has been doing standup. Whether you like it or not. Let's not have a competition
Starting point is 00:16:47 since 17. Who's better friends with him? I just want to, who's better looking between the Mats? Me or Matt Wright? What about the three of us? Obviously you and me. Tell you what, tell you what. Let's find pictures of us at the same age as him. That's a great call.
Starting point is 00:16:59 And then we can have a competition. Like a fair competition. I would lose so badly. I would lose really badly, yeah. Is he, like, I don't even know, is he mid-20s? I don't even know. I don't even, he's gorgeous. He's, yeah, he's dipped in bronze.
Starting point is 00:17:12 God, well, one thing I'll say about, you know, just doing it, like having confidence up there is so hard, like it takes you so long to get to anyway. And the wild thing is I will watch like Eddie Murphy in his late teens, early twenties doing standup for like an auditorium or an arena. And it's like, he could take a nap. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:30 His confidence is insane. His confidence level is so high. Andy's really funny, obviously. Oh yeah. The confidence level is something that, how long did it take you to kind of get to confidence? I mean, I kind of from, because I had done plays throughout my childhood,
Starting point is 00:17:43 I kind of- Speak to the speech, I pray, as it comes tripping Lee off the tongue. Sure. Out, out damn spot. Yorick. Banished it. I knew him, Horatio.
Starting point is 00:17:53 We've all done plays, Matt. Anyway, so you had that kind of confidence from the jump. Like a confidence in, this is so dumb, but I like it, so here we go. But there were times where I ate my dick on stage. But I didn't know what to do in front of a vagina. Sorry, I'm doing my act. That's the thing, you can do plays and stuff like that,
Starting point is 00:18:20 but when you start talking about, when you start doing standup, it's such a vulnerable art form because you supposedly are talking about what you actually think about things. And anyone can be like, you are stupid. The way your brain works is stupid or you're not funny. Whereas like, you can always hide behind the immortal bard
Starting point is 00:18:39 if you're doing a play and it's not quite gelling. Yeah, exactly. You can do like a, you're doing a mammot play and you're like, I'm quite gelling. Yeah, exactly. You're doing a mammoth play and you're like, I'm not really racist. Yeah, exactly. David Mamet, he made me. Yeah. But yeah, anyway, so it takes a while
Starting point is 00:18:54 to get that confidence up. So anyone who has it, I'm like, go with God. Have at it. Enjoy your youth and your good looks and your fame and your money. And it's wild that you always have those, you know, it's Matt Rife now, it was what? Dane Cook 20 years ago or something like that. Sure, and then before that when I started it was, you know, the other handsome comedians.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Sure, another... Sweet young Tim. Was that when he was still dealing coke or? Oh no, he was just our coke dealer at the time. Oh, okay. We all went to jail at the time. Oh, okay, okay. We all went to jail. Sweet mustache. It's very straight, coincidental I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Wait, were you one of the guys he sold out to get a shorter sentence? I never heard about this, what? Oh God, this is weird. Why did I go to jail for a long time? Let me call him, let me call Tim. No, anyway yeah, there are all these people that people- Let me call Buzz Lightyear, sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:43 There are all these people that everyone, all comedians kind of are jealous of, but you know what, we're all just trying to do shit. And to me it's just hilarious now, especially with Rife where it's just like, he's literally Elvis Presley right now, where to me it's just, it's like, to be jealous of that is just, is bonkers.
Starting point is 00:19:58 Yes, I mean, Elvis Presley, he had undeniable charisma. He had that band that really had the jump and jive and kind of sounds that the kids really liked. And yes, he was white and he was sort of stealing from black musicians. There is a black musician he stole his whole sound from, his singing style from. And you know, he had that that duck's ass kind of hairstyle that was too long and greasy for my taste. And he inspired Lenny Bruce by dying on the toilet. And they both chose to do that. So there's your comedy rock and roll connection.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I mean, this is the LA Peterson, of course. When he fakes everyone's deaths, he makes sure they're on the toilet. We found out recently on a tour stop. Oh, is that cool? Cool. Yeah, anyway. Yeah, I don't expect you to know anything about that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:45 If I faked my death, it would have to be, oh, he choked on his own enormous penis. Like something like that. His own enormous, let me stress, his own enormous penis. Wait, they left out his own on the print edition. Oh, yeah, well, it was edited for the time and space. It came out in a bit where it just says
Starting point is 00:21:02 choked on an enormous penis. On an enormous penis? The sound must have cut out on the time and space. It came out in a bit where it just says choked on an enormous penis. On an enormous penis? The sound must have cut out on the call right then when you called it in. You should have typed it out. Terrible. Well, Matt, you're out there.
Starting point is 00:21:12 How can people find dates for you? Just go to mattbronger.com. I'm going- B-R-A-U-N-G-E-R. Correct, yes. And you see if I'm coming to your town. My tour dates are scaled back because I have a tiny woman in my house to take care of.
Starting point is 00:21:26 But- As well as a baby. As well as- My miniature wife and enormous baby. You love your short curvy wife. All right, we need to take a break. When we come back, we have a publicity person. We also have a corporate spokesperson.
Starting point is 00:21:42 This is a packed show. I'm psyched for this. You have to admit, we're gonna come right back with more comedy bang bang, more bat, Matt, wronger. I said have a corporate spokesperson. This is a packed show. I'm psyched for this. You have to admit. We're going to come right back with more Comedy Bang Bang, more Matt Bronger. I said Bat Maronger. Bat Maronger is a better name. Bat Maronger. Although, you know, considering your plane style. Exactly. Yeah. We'll be right back with more Matt Bronger. We'll be right back with more Comedy Bang Bang after this. Comedy Bang Bang, we're back. We have Matt Bronger, comedian extraordinaire. That's how you asked to be introduced, right? You're a comedian extraordinaire.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Extraordinaire, yeah. I love comedians that have extravagant names. I love Cedric the Entertainer. Yes, I love this. It worked for him. It worked, because how many times have you been watching someone named Cedric and you're like, am I supposed to be laughing at this? I like the name. I like what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:22:27 But he's really entertained me. I don't think it's intentional. And you'll be out there, matbronger.com is where people can get all the info. Yep, yep. And so smart of you to get that.com address. Yeah, I know. It was tough.
Starting point is 00:22:42 A guy bought that and warnerbrothers.com. Oh, wow. Yeah, so it cost me about 50 grand. Such a common name. We need to get to our next guest. He's been on the show before. I really wonder what's been going on with him lately. We've spoken to him a handful of times, and by handful, I think, like, if you can hold three times, maybe three appearances in one hand.
Starting point is 00:23:06 I guess maybe if you've done four, this'll count two handfuls, I guess, any more than a handful, too much in my opinion. But please welcome back to the show Seth Berkowitz. Oh, Scott, how you doing? I'm doing really good, good to see you. Yeah, I think three times maybe here and then once in San Antonio.
Starting point is 00:23:23 You remember San Antonio, Scott? You, me, Cisco. That's right. Cisco, by the way, not the singer, it was the... What happened with them I don't even remember. I thought it was the, did it turn out to be something else? No, I thought it was the, I thought it was the software network
Starting point is 00:23:42 and cybersecurity solutions business. It was still looking for thongs. Still very concerned with thongs, but. I came out with my boxers and a thong and then found out there was a nine-year-old in the audience. That's right, and we were doing wind sprints, I believe. Oh yes, wonderful. But it's great to see you again, Scott.
Starting point is 00:24:00 It's great to see you, Seth. This is Matt Bronger. Matt, lovely to see you. You too, Seth. This is Seth Berkowitz. No relation. Although didn't we find out you are related to him? To David Berkowitz, the son of Sam Killer.
Starting point is 00:24:11 I'm related, but only by blood and parents, but no relation. I don't want to be compared to him or connected to him in any way. So I'm glad we're getting that out of the way. Right at the top. Yeah, okay. And you are, you're a PR person.
Starting point is 00:24:24 That's right. And you- I's right I represented Movie Pass. Movie Pass. You forgot? Wow. Cut that out. We don't have editing capabilities anymore. Okay okay is there any way we can run backwards around the earth really quickly or multiverse this? I mean Superman had to fly when he did it. I don't think running would be faster. Okay, that's fine. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:24:50 That's fine. I made one mistake. One mistake. One mistake. I'm a good PR rep. I'm not with MoviePass any longer. What happened to them? I thought they were back.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Well, they were back and better than ever, baby. At least that's what I said. Now there's a whole documentary about them on Max and the failure of it. And I'm beyond movie pass. By the way, Max putting up a documentary about a movie business failing is like the height of irony. Yeah, that's like Netflix with the blockbuster sitcom.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Yes, exactly. It's right before the fall and we all see it. I mean, I thought- One of the seven deadly sins. I emailed Zasloff and I said, what are you doing, baby? This isn't the way at all. You can't put thisff and I said, what are you doing, baby? This isn't the way at all. Zas. You can't put this up. Zas, baby. Zas, baby.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Good for you. Zazzy booby. No response. I'd love to work for Max. I do think they need a rebrand. I think they've got some negative press. Yeah, I mean, it seems like they really turned a corner once they nicknamed themselves Max
Starting point is 00:25:42 and then they got rid of that Looney Tunes acme and the Batgirl movies and all that kind of stuff. Yeah, I think it was Goofy movie related, because Goofy's son is named Max. Oh! And I think he was mad at the Looney Tunes. I never saw the Goofy movie. You didn't see the Goofy movie?
Starting point is 00:25:57 No, you want to come on Scott As the Scene and talk about the Goofy movie? Yes, Leaning Tower of Cheez-a! Okay, I don't know what that is. It's from the Goofy movie, Scott! Okay, well, sure, but I haven't seen it. I've told you that. Okay, all right, of Cheez-a. Okay, I don't know what that is. It's from the Goofy movie, Scott. Okay, well, sure, but I haven't seen it. I've told you that. Okay, all right, all right, all right.
Starting point is 00:26:08 And the movie, did they get into how Goofy is the only member of the Disney family that had sex? Well, I don't know this. Well, because you know, because he has a son. Oh, right, yeah. So there's, you know, physical evidence. They're just dating, they've never had a son. But Goofy literally fucked.
Starting point is 00:26:23 It's one of those things where you kind of guess they probably all have, but. Well, I think JD Vance came out against Goofy's use of IVF for children. Ah, that's what it was. That's what it was. Thank you. I would take that position. No, God. I would do that.
Starting point is 00:26:36 He loved doing it, but I wouldn't. Yeah. I think that's how Disney or whoever made that, Disney, red-con that idea. Yeah. So, but I'm not here to talk about Max because they won't take me. Sure, sure. Who else were you representing? American democracy at one point.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Wow. Yes, that did not go over well in San Antonio. Okay, yeah. I could see that. Nothing went over well in San Antonio, as I recall. That was not your place. I still couldn't get over, I'm so uneducated, I couldn't get over going to the Alamo
Starting point is 00:27:04 and realizing that it was just for one year the Americans took it from from Mexico. Yeah. And then they were mad that Mexico tried to take it back. Yeah. That's the remember the Alamo. And we're all supposed to remember this shit? Come on. I don't want to remember, I guess we should remember. We're remembering it for the wrong reasons. Yeah, but we should remember it for the right reasons. That's right. We should give back the Alamo. Yes. Again, I'm not here for these reasons. I am here now representing a new company or new for me, Open AI.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Wait, is it new or is it new for you? It's new for me. It's new for me. I'm newly with this company. They've been around for a while. You've read about them in the news. Open AI. Open AI.
Starting point is 00:27:38 I thought that was pronounced open A. See, this is already a marketing problem because people only read names. Right. It's like if you write all the Harry Potter movies and then you watch the movie and you go, oh, it's not Dumbledore. Yep.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Did that happen to someone you know? Me personally. Statistically, at least two people. Dumbledore. It's my biggest problem with JK Rowling. It's one of the many problems with open AI and people, I don't know about you guys, how you feel about AI, but people are scared. People are scared it's gonna take our jobs,
Starting point is 00:28:14 it's gonna take our women. Yes, yes. Just take anything Trump said about Mexico and make it AI and it remains true for a lot of American theaters. Well, that's the thing is, okay, open AI, like women and people are attracted to other people who have stuff going on, right? You know, like they're attracted, women are attracted to men with jobs.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Both women and people. Yes, open AI starts taking our jobs, women are gonna be attracted to the open AI now. That's right. Absolutely. Your job is the only thing a woman could be attracted to about you. Yes. And if you don't have one of those,
Starting point is 00:28:45 then we go down the street. Finally somebody said it, man. I hear the fear coming from both of you. Yeah. Thank you, yeah. And I'm here to tell you, it's AI all good, baby. Oh dear. Why are you laughing? It's AI all good.
Starting point is 00:28:59 It's AI all good. We've rebranded OpenAI, there's nothing to worry about. It's AI all good. I think you're workshopping right OpenAI. There's nothing to worry about. It's AI all good. I think you're workshopping right now. No, this is it. This is the final product? This is post-workshopping. Oh dear.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Okay. All right, well, how are you rebranding this? Well, it's AI all good. I mean, there's all these things, everybody was scared because Sam Bankman Fried, was that his name? And I know it. Left the company and then came back
Starting point is 00:29:25 and there's some fears that maybe they are valuing. Are you sure you're talking about the right guy? Cause that was the guy who was arrested. He's back? Let me look at my notes here. Wait, he came back. There was one guy who left and came back. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Did you want to add that he left again? Sam Bankman Fried is my cousin, no relation. Oh. Okay. Familiarily we are close to each other, but I had that kind of- Definition of relation. Sam Altman is who I'm thinking of.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Sam Altman, yes. Yes. No relation to Robert Altman, great filmmaker. Okay. Other than? Oh, his father. Robert Altman is Sam Altman's father. That's why it hurt. He saw all of his dad's movies and went, these are way too boring, we need AI.
Starting point is 00:30:00 That's how AI was invented. That was the inspiration. The camera's not moving enough. A lot of crosstalk. But we have all these fears that they're going to value money and that AI takes away from the environment, that it causes a lot of drain on our electric systems. And I am here to tell you, it's AI all good, baby. Don't you worry about a thing. Okay, so when you say it's all good, meaning we're mistaken about those facts?
Starting point is 00:30:29 AI all good. Yeah, thank you, Matt. I apologize. We don't need to get AI apologizes. I love it. Very good. Do you mind if I give a pen and paper here? I don't.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Why would I have a pen and paper here? I don't know. Everything is paperless these days. Do you promise to remember this afterwards? What did you say a second ago? Just listen, I don't even know, just listen to this back when we release it. Oh, great idea, thank you, thank you.
Starting point is 00:30:51 But so what, are you saying that we're mistaken or are you saying that we should just, we're mistaken? It's a-how good, is what I'm saying. So like- In what respect? Well, you have to think of, everybody likes to think of the scariest things, that's what gets the clicks.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Jason, Freddie. Ah! Ah! What about them fighting each other? Oh my God! What do you think, whoever wins, what do you think happens? I think we lose! No, Scott, that's the worst. What about Predator and Alien? Oh, wow, they're coming too?
Starting point is 00:31:17 We lose! That's the worst possible thing. By the way, if predators and aliens were to fight and half of them are wiped out, that's better for us than them all still being there and attacking us. But what if there was a crew of explorers that were on the planet while they were fighting? Wouldn't we worry about those guys?
Starting point is 00:31:38 I guess we'd worry about those guys. Maybe led by a ill-advised bullheaded billionaire. Okay, sure. I don't know. I'm listening. There's spitball in here. I'm listening. But I'm just saying this tagline doesn't make any sense. Because it should be, and this is why-
Starting point is 00:31:51 It should be like, whoever wins, we're probably better off because only the others are there. Right, yeah. You should come work for me, Scott. You should work for me. I don't know, I can afford the pay cut. Oh.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Oh. Scott, of course it would be on spec for a while. Sure, speculative. It would be speculative, but you'd get points on the back end once we make money for ideas such as. What is back end to you? Um, I'll give you a little taps on your little butt.
Starting point is 00:32:17 I don't need taps on my butt. You don't want little taps on your little butt, little points on the back end? No, come on. All right, fine, Scott, I don't want to do it if you don't want it. All I'm saying is even that movie, Alien, I just watched this new block.
Starting point is 00:32:27 AI-lien. Can you write any of this down? No! Can we pause and I can pan this? Yeah, I don't have a pen or anything. We can't pause, we don't have any buttons on this thing. All right, all right, all right, all right. AI-lien was the first one,
Starting point is 00:32:39 and then listen back to remember the second one. I apologize. Oh, that's great. I gotta write that down. Stop this, please. All right, so what are you saying? I am saying even that Romulus movie presents, have you seen it?
Starting point is 00:32:51 I have seen it, yes. Spoilers for Romulus for the next, how long should we say? Spoilers for Romulus if you watch the first Alien, it's the same plot over. The same plot, yeah, but say, skip ahead, how many times do they do skip ahead 10 seconds? Three.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Spoilers for Romulus, like three times? Yeah, well three. I'll time you right here. Can I ask, I haven't seen it. Does Romulus win or lose? Romulus, that's a good one. Like Romulus himself. I guess Romulus kind of is a loser in all this.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Oh, okay. Right? At the end of the movie, I turned to the guy next to me and I said, Romulus was a loser in all this. Yeah, did not go well for Romulus. And this guy didn't know you, I presume. No, no, he didn't. He had barely gotten to the part of my popcorn work.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Why did you sit next to me? Why was she? Yeah. But you know, they present the AI as some sort of bad tool for the corporate agenda, you know what I mean? Just like the first Alien, where they took a wonderful actor like Ian Holm, who has AI in his name,
Starting point is 00:33:45 just backwards, something to think about. That's a good point. And they make him represent robots, spoiler alert for the first alien. Uh huh. And how robots only follow orders and can be negative. This is the problem with robots. Yes. We need to give them, we need to give them brains so that they don't just follow orders.
Starting point is 00:34:00 That's a great idea. That would be very AI awesome, Scott. AI, AI Ackerman. Well, I've got so many, I would be very AI awesome Scott. AI increment. Well, I've got so many, I was thinking about them down. But I'm saying there's so many uses for AI that we don't hear about. Like what? Well, how about if you ever had guests over
Starting point is 00:34:15 for a dinner party, either of you, and a few friends over, never, okay, this won't work for you. You neither. No, I have. You have, okay, thank you, Matt. You've had friends over? I have, that sounds so cool. I mean, maybe Scott and I could join you. have, okay, thank you, Matt. Wow. You've had friends over? I have, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:25 That sounds so cool. I mean, and maybe Scott and I could join you. Yeah, yeah, that'd be great. Maybe it could just be the three of us. You could send your wife and baby off. I don't know. I don't know. That sounds a little odd.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Just three of us bros. I think I'm starting to understand why you don't get invited to dinner parties, man. We could bro out. We could bro out. What's wrong with us bro? Okay, you didn't say anything about broing out. Then I'm in, let's go.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Maximum of three bros in a bro out. We can bro out. What's wrong with us broing out? Okay, you didn't say anything about broing out. Then I'm in, let's go. Maximum of three bros in a bro out, in my opinion. Oh yeah, once it's more than that, it's a sausage party. Am I right bros? Yeah. High five. Yeah, no thanks. Right on my little butt.
Starting point is 00:34:55 It's not really a high five. Points on the back end. Butt five. But you know, let's say you have guests over. This is just one of the many magical things AI could do. Okay. What if your toilet could read their ones and twos and let you know if they've maybe, they're dehydrated. Maybe you need to change the meals
Starting point is 00:35:13 to add more fiber for your guests. This isn't AI. This is like you just shitting into a toilet that has like, you know, that looks at the DNA of your poop. You know what I mean? What's the difference? The difference is like an AI, you know, like,
Starting point is 00:35:28 like pooping for you. Or coming up with ways to talk to you about your poop. Yeah. Like you're like, you can't say like, oh, this is AI. I pee in this jar. And then it comes back and says, like if I have, you know, diseases or, you know what I'm saying? We send my urine sample to the AI lab.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Yeah. Not to bring up something that would be. It was just so quick. Traces of marijuana. Realized that that was undoable. And you teamed up against it so quickly. Just the idea, not you. Thank you, well it's my idea. Okay, fair.
Starting point is 00:35:58 That's how I got this job and so I keep this job. Fair point. That's why you don't like that. You know what everybody loves? You know what I'm saying? It's like you can't just like pee into a toilet, flush it and go, that was AI. It's a machine designed to do this thing.
Starting point is 00:36:09 You know what I mean? But the machine is powered by AI, Scott. In what way? This is some analog AI. This thing flushes using a pipe. AI analog. You can do it with any word that has an A in it. You know, it's fun for people.
Starting point is 00:36:22 Do you see my point though? A toilet that you shit in that examines your feces is just a machine that examines feces, it's not AI. An AI would be like, you shit in it, and then it comes up with a story in which like AI, your shit starts in it. Or a song, a song that sings to you about how. Like it has to create, AI is a creator.
Starting point is 00:36:40 Yeah, you don't have a little fiber. Or at least, you know what I'm saying? Like it's gotta. And if you ever heard this theory in business, I believe in it. Strong ideas, weakly held. I had a strong idea, but I have been convinced of the weakness of my idea, and I've let go of it.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Wow. And I now understand what you want, and I say we do it, which is a robot in your bathroom that holds people's ones. Now we're back to robots? What do you want? So what are you saying? Isn't that what you're describing? You're saying like a Rocky IV style robot
Starting point is 00:37:09 who comes in cups, its little metallic hands underneath your butthole, and then you shit into it. And then it comes and shows the host of the party and it goes, this man or woman needs more fiber. But why hands? Why not just like a school? Or mouth or whatever you want. So mouth, wrong or wrong's matter.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Why are you making it a person? To shit in school? Or mouth or whatever you want. So that wrong or wrong's a mouth. Why are you making it a person? That wrong or wrong runs to shit in a robot's mouth? I don't, well, that's a separate issue, but yeah. But that's, listen, for what we're talking about, you know, analyzing, I don't know why it has to be, like have a personification of a human. Like AI, why not like just a bucket that's?
Starting point is 00:37:42 AI would be like analyzing your shit going like, here's a bunch of cancers that don't exist yet that I think could exist at some point. Okay. Based on your shit. Evil AI. So that's an interesting one. So you go to the bathroom, your friends, we're at, we're growing out at my friend, Matt Brownger's house.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Sure, yes, okay. One of us, I go and make... He sent his wife and baby off. They're off. I sent them off to go somewhere. We're playing NCAA 25. That's right. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:38:07 That's what the three of us like to do. Okay, now I see it. I see it. And I make into the AI too. I do it in its. We're drinking Manhattans. Yes. Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:38:18 One knocks me out. To be hydrated. I just want to mention this. Yeah, that ass at the end of that cocktail. We're calling Kulak to pick you up. I'll tell you about the poker game I went to and I ate a bag of chips and had three beers, right? Before we ever started playing, I said,
Starting point is 00:38:33 my stomach hurts, I need to go home. And everyone went, oh, what? You tried to take the pot as you walked out. Yeah, I'm gonna take this with me. I win. Now, wouldn't it have been incredible if you had been about to open that bag of chips and an AI had seen your feces earlier and said,
Starting point is 00:38:50 whoa, whoa, whoa, Scott. Whoa, if you do this, no beers. You will be tired. Yeah, that is what an example of something AI could do. Okay, this is- Maybe. We're really- Although again, it's just kind of a machine
Starting point is 00:39:02 where if you just shit into a machine, it'll give you test results. Anyway, it's like you can't call it thermometer AI. There's no- You stick it in your mouth and it's just kind of a machine where if you just ship into a machine that'll give you test results. Anyway, you can't call it thermometer AI. You stick it in your mouth and it's like, this is how hot your mouth is. Right. Oh, thanks AI for dreaming up, you know. But if the thermometer was like, congratulations,
Starting point is 00:39:16 you have a hot mouth. Is that AI? If it's programmed to do that. Yeah, if it's programmed ahead of time to do that, it's not AI. Yeah, you know how like machines,, this one I'm recording on right now, if you turn it off, it goes, goodbye, see you later. I'm like, I don't need to see you later.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Right. You know what I mean? You don't like the AI of that machine. It's not AI. It's just program. It does it every single time. Right. Dude, but so you, are you asking me if the AI is thinking about you while you're
Starting point is 00:39:41 gone and hoping to see you again? I think that's what I'm asking you. You're saying AI for any device and or computer. I may be under informed. I'm willing to learn as much as you two. What about, we all love those videos of Will Smith eating pasta. Did you see those, those AI videos?
Starting point is 00:39:59 I have not. Someone created. Someone created, right in the early days of AI videos, when everybody was doing like, uh, you know, uh, Riddick writing a Tyrannosaurus and it would be a weird face, but it was basically Riddick and you'd send it to your friends and have a laugh. Yeah. They did that, a video of will I just eat, uh, will I am eating pasta? Did it turn Will Smith into Will I am? Because that
Starting point is 00:40:26 would be AI-ish. Is that a fear you have? Because it's AI all good, baby. Will Smith will remain Will Smith and Will I am will keep mixing god. Never the twain shall I. Is that what you said? I said meat. Okay, well I like the other one. Never the twain shall I compare you to a summer's day. Yes. Oh, the immortal. This is the thing. We need AI to create some of the world's best plays. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Well, we can do that too. And I know I've heard from a lot of artists, I've been doing think groups and, and, and, and friend tanks and stuff like that. Friend tanks? Yeah. Friends, we get together and we talk about things they're scared of. And a lot of artists are scared that AI is going to take friends we get together and we talk about things they're scared of. And a lot of artists are scared that AI
Starting point is 00:41:08 is gonna take their jobs as writers and as creators. I don't know if you all have that feeling. Right, sure. I wanna see Romeo versus Hamlet. You know what I mean? Oh, that's a matchup. Whoever wins, we lose. We lose, we certainly lose.
Starting point is 00:41:20 Two sad dudes, whoever wins, we lose. And yet Juliette and Ophelia may win at the end of the day. That's true. But you know, Shakespeare never got around to writing that one, although I'm sure it was on his list, you know, his next thing was versus he was going to go through his, the Shakespeare universe. He was going to remind his IP. He just never got around to it, but I would love to see that as written by Shakespeare.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Yeah. And that is absolutely possible. And it's obviously not something and no offense to either of you. neither of you could write that. Oh, no. God, no. But we plug into AI all of Shakespeare's writings, all of his notes that we can't even read, you know? Like where he made two sections because his manager said to do and was just like, think of a job and think of a funny trait and just mix them and see if any of those are movies. And Shakespeare had millions of those. Yeah, he did. Like cobbler fat, the fat cobbler or whatever.
Starting point is 00:42:08 Or whatever that play was called. The fat cobbler of Venice was a first draft. So what is your point? Oh, well, my point is I'm trying to meet you here and say, are you scared of something like that? Because what AI could do is it could plug all of that in, all the characters, and then it could spit out, here's what Romeo was eating too much of.
Starting point is 00:42:33 It could look at Romeo's stool, which we've never gotten to see in any sort of play. Sure, obsessed with the AI looking at people's shit. I don't understand. It's the peak of health. What? Your shit in your tongue tell the story of your health. Sure.
Starting point is 00:42:48 I guess if you haven't mentioned tongues once until right now. Yes. Feels like you're just bringing that out. So it's a little too, a little too. Too little, too late. AI, too little, too late. No, I don't think you know what AI is.
Starting point is 00:43:04 Number too little, too light? No, I don't think you know what AI is. Number too little, number too late. This is the thing, I don't think you know what AI is. I don't think, when you say it's AI all good, all you've said is like, are you scared of AI? Well, here's what we could do. We could put everything into AI. That's not assuaging my fears. No, it's made me more scared.
Starting point is 00:43:23 What about, maybe you've lost somebody. For me, my fears. No, it's made me more scared. What about maybe you've lost somebody for me and my Nana. Okay. I, you know, I don't get to eat my Nana's delicious recipes anymore. Glad you said recipes. Thank God. I mean, I remember. After you said delicious, the cliffhanger for me. Yeah, boy. That mean, I remember before- After you said delicious, the cliffhanger for me.
Starting point is 00:43:47 Yeah, boy. That pause was precarious. Oh, man. God. All week, we'd be driving to Nana's house and I'd say, Daddy, am I going to get to eat Nana's delicious recipes today? In any case, what are you trying to say? You could put all of my Nana's delicious recipes into an AI now.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Sure. And then what? It could spit right back out my Nana's stool. I don't know. Just put the book of recipes, bind it and turn it into a book. And then you have the recipes. Well, that's not AI. That's just a book binder.
Starting point is 00:44:19 I think you just want to build a device that shits. Yes. And with no AI involved. You guys, I was not expecting a third degree. A shitting robot. I was not expecting the third degree. It's so hard. Look, Seth, I don't, I'm not interested.
Starting point is 00:44:33 I'm sorry. It's a pass for me too, man. Can you at least just cut the, you saying not interested from the podcast? Again, our editing machine is broken. Can you cut the knot? You're used to tying the knot. The one thing I'll tell you is I will cut out
Starting point is 00:44:49 the 10 second pause in between. I used to eat my Nana's delicious and then recipes, I'll cut that pause out. What, when you were dreamily staring into space, that's the one thing I'll do for you. Yeah. Put those words closer together. I'll put those together. I'll put those together.
Starting point is 00:45:05 I'll put those together. Don't worry. All right. Make sure if someone- You know what can do that? AI. AI, yes. Really?

You know, she died on the same day as Michael Jackson and nobody talks about her death. Oh wow. Really? The same day of the same calendar year?
Starting point is 00:47:32 The same day of the same calendar year. That's gotta be tough. August 25th, 2009. Yeah, we've just been doing the- That's wrong, June 28th, 2009. It was a little earlier because we had just been doing the podcast of- June 25th. A few weeks.

Starting point is 00:49:08 Well, here's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna take one cap of PineSaw. That's right. And I'm gonna pour it in one gallon of hot water. Okay, and this is only one capful? This is all we need? One capful. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:20 And you know how much they get you? How much? 14 buckets. 14 buckets? 14 buckets of PineSaw. If you pour it into one bucket, that gets? 14 buckets. 14 buckets. 14 buckets of pine sawn. If you pour it into one bucket, that gets you 14 buckets. Yes, you can pour the gallon that you poured into that bucket.
Starting point is 00:49:32 I'm not understanding the math here. Oh, no, it's got to do. What? You pour one gallon of hot water into one bucket. Right. You have 13 other buckets. Okay, you put the cap full into the one hot water bucket. And then you pour generously into each bucket.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Generously. You have 14 buckets. So you have one for each of them? It expands and multiplies? That's incredible. Yes. That's the power of pine saw, Matt Bronger. Wow.
Starting point is 00:49:55 What's going on with your throat? I don't know. It just started. Thinking about the 70s. Just you're tearing up. I'm thinking about the 70s.

Starting point is 00:50:05 Yes. And now I'm tearing up. I'm getting sad. I miss the 70s so much. So much. Scott, it's an election year. Who are you voting for? Well, of course, we don't like to publicize that.
Starting point is 00:50:18 That's between you and the- And our Lord. Yeah, and our Lord. Say, we're Jesus Christ. You know, that's why they have the little curtain there on the ballot box so that no one can just peek over your shoulder and be like, ooh. They don't have that anymore. I know.
Starting point is 00:50:29 I miss it. Because everybody's woke now. Well, also too many people are peeing in the ballot boxes. Peeing in the ballot box, yes. Peeing in the ballot box. Oh, that's a great song. Yeah, you remember that one? The 70s.

Starting point is 00:52:13 Yeah, if you ever want to come on here and do a fake character, Pinesaw lady, and you just want to do Deon Sanders. Ooh, can I come? Can I come and do a character like everybody else? I don't know what you're talking about. Like Matt Bronger's doing right now? Yeah, Matt Bronger is.

A new flavors, do you mean scents or are we supposed to be drinking this pine salt? You goose, you can't drink pine salt. That's right, that was one of your catchphrases. I forgot it until just right now.
Starting point is 00:52:41 I forgot it on the road. Yeah, you can't drink pine salt. You can't drink pine salt, you goose. But what you can do is you can take one capful of different flavors, pour it into one gallon of hot water. Okay. And that'll get you 14 buckets. You could clean up 14 kitchens. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:00 28 kitchens. Yeah, why not use one bucket for 14 kitchens? Why would you do that, you goose? Why would you do that? So wait, you're saying mix all these flavors together? No, I'm not saying that. What are you saying? I'm saying we're coming up with new flavors.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Okay, what are the new flavors? Okay, let's say you wanna clean your floor. Okay, you've hooked me. But you're sick of that regular old pine smell. That's the thing is, pine saw, it kind of makes me a little nauseous. Everything makes you nauseous. Chips and beer.

Starting point is 00:54:28 That's a tough day when you find out you're gluten-free. You've gone to the doctor and you are gluten-free. So you can't have these chips anymore, but you still want to- But you still want to smell them. Why? Like most of the time you want to smell something because you're about to eat it
Starting point is 00:54:42 and it arouses the taste buds. What? Who said that? Well, you know, you know how you walk in a room, like this is how you sell a house. If you're trying to sell your house, bake some cookies, yes. Or pour some cookie flavored binds all on the floor. Cookie flavored. Is that a thing? Yes.

Starting point is 00:56:18 Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know. I thought you guys wanted your houses cleaned. One is good. I do, but I'm just wondering why it's all based on things I might want to eat. I just feel like I'd be tempted. Why, what do you want it to be based on? Maybe, well, let's say there's pine, you've pine,
Starting point is 00:56:31 obviously pine salt. No, no one wants to eat pine. I don't know, mint salt? Mint! Mint, you want your kitchen to smell like mint. Although I guess you can eat mint. Rosemary salt? You can eat rosemary.

I know you spend a lot of time in Italy and it's fine there, but. Let's think of sense that you can't eat dog. But you do not want your kitchen smelling like dog no I guess

You're gonna say, I already finished it. It was so good. It's such a good delicacy that I already finished it. And she's gonna say- And she's gonna go, I get it.
Starting point is 01:02:04 I arrived here at noon. I had it for breakfast. I had it for breakfast. It was leftovers from last night. This is an incredible pitch. We could use you at Berkowitz and Dershowitz. Yeah. Dershowitz is the other.

Don't even worry about it. I'm just saying we could use you at the company. I'm sorry. I have a job, but if you needed some, some help over there, all the robots need to be
Starting point is 01:02:38 cleaned and guess how many robots you could clean with just one cat full. Probably at most one buckets worth. Yeah. Would that becomes 15? 14 buckets, please, Matt. I'm sorry. Or pay the price. Is it 14 additional buckets?
Starting point is 01:02:52 13 additional buckets from the original bucket. Swinging a mess. And this is, and you do this by just pouring it. It's a continuous pour. You pour it into one bucket. It's still. And it has a hole in the side and it trickles down like one of those. Like a champagne tower?

Starting point is 01:03:44 to get in there, but it was fun. I heard great stories. Like what? Oh. Oh. I'm trying to think of the Mike Myers movie you did about it. Hey, if you remember tonight at Rube's, you weren't at Rube's, man.
Starting point is 01:03:56 That's right, buddy, that's my brother right there. You're trying to think of an Awesome Powers movie about what?

Yeah, Awesome Powers is what someone calls Superman on the, when the Superman poster doesn't say Superman. Awesome Powers. Yeah, it's like the, what it is. Isn't his name awesome powers?
Starting point is 01:04:25 All right. I'm writing down awesome powers to put into my comic. Incredible. You already hear it's going to my act too.

Starting point is 01:06:11 to maybe drink the bleach, which is very dangerous. Scott, that is not my problem. Not your problem? What is my problem is if you don't keep the bleach near the children. Well, children are very wily. They're very mischievous. They like to get into places that they're not allowed to get into.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Bleach is like Michael Jackson. In what way? Don't keep the bleach near children. Don't eat Michael Jackson near children. Don't eat Michael Jackson. I don't know, this is too dangerous. I don't think, like pine saw, you're not supposed to be ingesting it.

Starting point is 01:06:55 Why are these all mother-in-law based? Take my mother-in-law, please. Okay, funny, but classic. Imagine, you're mother-in-law. Okay. You've been cheating on Cool Out with a woman from Poland. What is wrong with you, Scott? He's a dog.
Starting point is 01:07:12 He really is. He ain't nothing but the dog in me. He's a damn dog. He got that dog in him. Dion Sanders, he'd be very happy with me. I need dogs, Scott. Scott, I need dogs. What'd you want me to do about it?
Starting point is 01:07:25 That's what he would say if a child drank bleach. What do you want me to do about it? I need dogs. You should put it up. I need dogs, man. So what? I'm imagining I want to take a bath. Yes, and your mother-in-law has been in there.
Starting point is 01:07:43 Okay. Has been in there? She just took a bath. All right. And I want to take a bath in the same bathtub that she just took a bath in? There's only one bathtub at the house that you bought to cheat. Yes, the cheating house. Only one bathtub in the cheating house. Yes. Okay. And she left the ring, but she had a plane to catch.
Starting point is 01:08:07 She had an Eastern Airlines plane to catch. Okay. Back to wherever she came from. Okay. Okay. And. Poland. Poland.
Starting point is 01:08:15 Right, okay. And there's a ring. There's a ring. So you have to clean it. Okay, and is this a morning bath I'm trying to take? Yes, you have to go to work. It's more like a nighttime, like luxurious activity. No, you take morning baths.
Starting point is 01:08:25 Are there people- It's the 70s. Nobody was showering in the 70s. No. Really? Are there people taking morning baths before they go to work? If she had a night like that, like when she was out at Rube's, okay, Marty, and took that bath, the toxins come out, there's a ring.
Starting point is 01:08:39 Yeah, the ring. There's a ring. Okay, so I want to get it out, what do I do? You open up a regular, a regular bottle of bleach. Okay. And you smell it, you go, oh! I can't sit in this. That bleach smell, yeah. And then you open up a bottle of cinnamon bun bleach.
Starting point is 01:08:56 Right. And you pour that in the tub, and you clean that ring, and then it leaves a cinnamony flavor. Cinnamony flavor, right. And you fill the bathtub up, you get in the bathtub, you take your morning bath, you go to work and have a great day. Go to work three hours later.
Starting point is 01:09:13 But here's the thing, like you wouldn't, you know the gas that we all have hooked up to our houses, the gas company. Yeah. I was reading your meter as I came in. Why would you do something like that? Make sure you're not cheating, sister. Okay.
Starting point is 01:09:28 That's good of you. But you know, they put that gas smell in there. That's manufactured in order to tip you off. Gas is normally odorless, but they put that little smell in there in order to tip you off in case you can smell it, that oh no, there's a problem. You wouldn't make that like, you know,
Starting point is 01:09:46 margarita. Margarita? Or cookies, or cake, you know what I mean? Imagine cake smelled gas. But then you would just. Imagine you came home and said, I haven't baked a cake. Yes.
Starting point is 01:09:58 Everybody out of the house. Yeah, don't light that cigar. What if you had baked a cake? This is my point. Well just don't light that cigar. Don't light that cigar? They're bad for you. Open up every window in the house.
Starting point is 01:10:08 Never smoke a cigar. And get out. This is my point though. You can't flavor these things, appealing flavors, otherwise everyone's gonna want to ingest them. Everybody's gonna wanna ingest gas because it smells like cake. Mm-hmm.

Starting point is 01:10:37 Okay, I don't have a shiv. This is not fair. Well, you should have brought a shiv to a shiv fight. I don't want to break you guys up again, man. You seem very tired after that first break. I'm exhausted. Yeah, you're dripping with sweat. I got punched six times.
