Doug hates candy wrappers screaming baby sticky seeds
With 50 acid popper kernels in his teeth
There's still not one that he won't see
Cause Doug loves movies
Hey, hey, hey, everybody.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is the most movie!
Ha, ha, ha.
Coming to you for, I believe, the fourth time
from the Old Town Playhouse,
OTP, yeah, you know me,
in Traverse City, Michigan, as part of the Traverse City Film Festival.
It's Wednesday, July 29th, 2015, the second day of the festival, and I know a lot of you are here just attending the festival and heard about this thing.
And you have a badge or whatever, and you decided to come check it out.
But then there's also folks that came from long distances and prepared name tags.
And may I see your name tags now?
Those of you that, oh, wow.
I love the lady in the balcony that
doesn't have one, but she's just raising the roof. It's good that nobody in the balcony has
one because guests might not be able to get up there. Uh, that crazy snake. I don't know what's
going on with that. What did you write on it? Danaconda-conda. Dan-a-conda?
Because your name is Dan?
I'm pretty good at figuring these out.
I've been doing this for a while.
Aaron Budd.
That's pretty fun.
Sesame Street. You know Sesame Street's a TV program, right?
It was a movie.
You're right.
That's true.
We all went and saw it
all the president's ben
because his name's ben some of these are getting too far away for me to see
whatever happened to baby allison whatever happened i'm worried about baby Allison. What's the Narnia one?
Chronicles of Narnia? Your name's Nicole? Chronicles. I love it. Well, thank you to
everybody who brought a name tag. You can go ahead and put them down for now. We'll lower the lights and we'll pop those back out when the appropriate time comes.
I've got a couple more events coming up here.
Who's coming to the Benson movie interruption of Top Gun tomorrow night?
That's going to be super fun.
I've never interrupted Top Gun.
That's going to be super fun. I've never interrupted Top Gun.
I worry that some of the dogfighting scenes, or whatever you want to call them,
might be a little long and repetitive for interrupting,
but then we'll just sit back and enjoy an exciting movie right here in this very theater. And then on Friday night, we're interrupting Speed, I mean Saturday night, excuse me, Speed,
Then on Friday night, we're interrupting Speed, I mean Saturday night, excuse me, Speed over, yeah, at midnight over at the State Theater where if you're watching a movie and it's boring, you could just look up at the stars on the ceiling and it's quite breathtaking.
Not that watching Speed with us is going to be boring.
I think tickets are still available for both if you're listening to the podcast and you want to come by and get in there. New York City, there's 20 seats left for next Monday's, the August 3rd Doug Loves Movies at the Gramercy Theater. And folks that come to that show
will have, after it's over, they'll have an opportunity to buy tickets to the show the next Monday on August 10th.
They won't have to pay the Ticketmaster fees if you buy them right there on the spot.
And everybody comes to the August 10th show in New York City will be first in line, first chance to buy tickets for the second annual 12 Guests of Christmas episode on November 30th.
And those are always a lot of fun
because I get 12 guests on stage.
I can barely control three people on a regular basis.
So getting 12 of them up there is crazy.
Save big money at Menards.
Kansas City, I just like singing it
because when I'm in the area, I hear the commercials.
We don't have Menards out in California.
Kansas City, Missouri.
I'll be doing the Benson movie interruption of Kansas City Bomber,
starring Raquel Welch as a roller derby lady.
Yeah, give it up for that.
On Friday, August 14th at the Alamo Drafthouse there, downtown. And then the next day,
Doug Lowe's Movies tapes
at the Kansas City Improv at 420.
Is Daniel...
That's you, Danaconda.
Did you have the Danaconda last time?
You had a different name tag.
Okay, that's what threw me off.
But your name on Twitter,
I don't know why,
is Dirty Vicar. It's what threw me off. But your name on Twitter, I don't know why, is Dirty Vicar.
It's a Monty Python reference.
I saw Monty Python meaning of live last night on a boat.
Yeah, that was neat.
So you're the Dirty Vicar, okay.
And I don't know if you guys recall,
but a gentleman had to be thrown off mid-show at the last film festival.
And Dan was the person I pulled out of the audience to step up on stage and fill in for him.
And it's good to see that you're in the front row with a snake around your neck.
Because I want you to be ready. It might happen again.
Like I said, that pasterneck kid, I don't trust him.
That Pasternak kid could be trouble. How do you know he's going to be on? He might not be here.
I saw him walk in.
You saw him walk in, but he might just be here to check it out. His whole family's here.
Let's check out the prize bag, you guys. They give you a bag full of stuff when you're a filmmaker or a presenter
or any kind of thing here at the festival, and I appreciate it,
but it's got some stuff in there that I will not consume,
so I like to pay it forward.
One looks like a bottle of Blanc de Blanc, whatever that means.
But it's got the Traverse City Film Festival logo on it,
and I guess it's a kind of champagne, I guess, right?
They wouldn't have one of those types of tops on a wine thing, would they?
I don't know.
This thing, big slice, pure kettle-cooked apples,
but it's in a packet.
It feels like...
Here, Dan, just feel this thing.
What does that feel like to you?
I feel like it should be somebody's organ transplant or something.
It's real...
It's like a blood pack.
It's mushy and weird.
Yeah, it's got blood in there, probably.
So Twilight fans can enjoy that.
And then also some chocolate-covered cherries
because, of course, this is the chocolate capital of the world.
And this is pretty neat.
There's a place here called Eleven.
I think it's a restaurant.
I assume it is.
And this is 11% off your entire purchase. There's a place here called Eleven. I think it's a restaurant. I assume it is.
And this is 11% off your entire purchase with this card.
So, yeah, it doesn't say anywhere on it what Eleven is.
So maybe it's a haberdashery. I don't know.
And then I got a CD by a gentleman who's not here tonight,
but he's on the same record label as me.
I believe his name is Zach
Sherwin.
He's good, right?
And then a copy of my CD,
Promotional Tool. And then
one of my old posters
for one of my albums, because I'm so
handsome on this one.
I gotta
share that with people.
That's the best picture ever taken of me.
Hypocritical Oaf was the name of that record.
And then last night at the opening night party,
they always give you a nice Traverse City Film Festival glass
that I'm putting in the bag.
I'm still not done, you guys.
This is a deep-ass bag.
A T-shirt from my friends at Chameleon Glass.
Do we have anybody that's under 21 here tonight?
A few people?
Okay, we don't need to get into what they do.
This thing is really cool, but, you know, if you know what it is, good for you.
If you don't know what it is, don't worry about it.
It's on the floor,
doesn't matter anymore. Oh, here's another one. They gave me a thing of chocolate that completely melted inside the package. It's been pretty hot here. And then, oh, also some fudge.
So all of that, plus what my guests bring for the bag,
is going to be won
by somebody tonight.
So please give a big one.
These are all returning guests
to the program.
Please give a big warm welcome
to Jeff Tate, Jesse.
Can I say all the names?
Please. I've never been interrupted so strongly
while trying to...
Jesse Pasternak and Jeff Garland!
That first one sounded like it was just all for me.
Well, that's the thing.
These people flipped out because you didn't know that Jeff was hanging out at the festival.
You figured it out. Right when I said it? That's when you figured it out?
Well, great job, maimed detectives.
I know exactly who the criminal is
as soon as you tell me.
That's a good detective right there.
You tell me who did it,
and then I know who did it.
Jeff Tate, how are you enjoying
the film festival so far?
It's day two.
It's great.
I'm having a great time.
I'm four for four on movies I've seen.
Right?
Yeah.
They only show great movies at this festival.
Yeah, they keep saying it, and then I keep hoping one of them sucks, and they don't.
They just keep, like halfway through, I'm like, fuck, another good one.
What was the last one you saw?
Good Kill.
And what did you say about that movie to me?
I said it was good.
Great, Great Kill.
Shit.
Wait, hold on.
Hold on, do it again.
No, it's too late.
We shouldn't try to recreate jokes from the car, I guess.
Well, you're the one that said great kill.
Yeah, you said I saw a good kill and it was great.
And I said, why didn't they call it great kill?
Oh.
Yeah, and then we totally fucked it up when bringing it to an audience.
But our driver got a good laugh out of it.
Shout out to Lori.
And what do you have for the prize bag, dude?
Oh.
That's a lot.
Yeah.
Takes some effort.
No, I know.
We'll come back to you.
Jesse Pasternak is back, everybody.
How are you doing, my college attending friend?
Oh, I'm doing great.
I'm always happy when I'm back at TC.
Yeah. And you're going to school in Bloomington, Indiana.
My mom calls it Bloomies.
And we had you on the show.
We haven't had you on the show in Bloomington, have we?
No, not yet.
I left a week after, like a week before you were going to be there for the comedy festival
because I had to start an internship.
That's weak indeed.
I'll do it whenever
the schedules match up. I'll do it
as soon as you need me.
Like half a heartbeat.
We always need you.
You're probably
one of the most polite guests we've ever had.
Thank you very much.
I really wish his name was Ernest.
He's so incredibly earnest.
And, uh, alright,
so let's go ahead and meet him.
It's absolutely stunning.
We haven't heard from him at all yet.
Let's give it up for Jeff Garlin, everybody.
Thank you. it up for Jeff Garland, everybody.
One time, Zach Galifianakis was on the show, and he thought it'd be funny to not
speak the entire time.
And that lasted for about half the show.
Eventually, he broke down and said
something. No, I'll talk. Oh, okay.
You just need to ask me shit.
Oh, okay. How are you
enjoying? Are you
on the board or something here?
Probably. Yeah.
Not to my knowledge, but I might
be for all I know. You helped start
the comedy festival
that they do here in the winter
time. Yes.
Thank you.
In the dead of winter,
of course.
Yeah, no,
it's as wintery as it gets.
Yeah.
I haven't been for two years.
Yeah.
But you've got a great excuse
because you're making
Meet the Bloombergs
at that time.
Yeah, I'm meeting
Meet the Bloombergs.
I hear Mike's great on it. Which is a huge hit, Meet the Bloombergs. I hear Mike's great on it.
Which is a huge hit,
Meet the Bloombergs.
Mike's so charismatic
on that.
What's that?
Mike Bloomberg,
you know,
that's, you know,
he's the cast.
It's a show where
people come over,
people go over
to the Bloombergs' house
and they gripe about
how they can't have
large soda drinks.
I feel like I should,
you say what you want.
My mom calls it Bloomington.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
It takes place in Bloomington, Indiana.
Does it really?
And ironically, the whole family's Purdue fans.
It creates a lot of animosity in the state of Indiana.
Now I remember why I hate the entire family.
What?
IU. IU. Thank you. Thank you hate the entire family. What? IU.
IU.
Thank you. You know what? Seriously,
if I'm going to stay here, he's got to
stop.
You can't, listen, I'm a man.
You can't
chant your school
and
I don't
think he would have done it again
I don't think it's going to come up again
oh you'd be surprised
these fucking college kids they love yelling out their school
yeah but he doesn't seem like a sports fan
like if he was really going to change
no he's a sports fan
just basketball
of course because you're a Jew
and Jews
and Jews love going to basketball.
Is that true?
It is a big ball of true.
There's so many Jews at IU, and they all go to basketball.
Yeah, I know what they do.
Same with Illinois.
Same with the whole Midwest.
Is that why my dad went to Butler?
Your dad's not Jewish, right? No. Yeah, that's why he went to Butler? Your dad's not Jewish, right?
No.
Yeah, that's why he went to Butler.
Is he a minister of some sort?
He's a minister, a Christian minister.
As opposed to?
Whatever Jews have.
A Christian rabbi.
Yeah, we have both parts of the Bible, guys.
The second half with all the cool stuff.
No, I don't know.
It's been a while.
So, Jeff Tate, what did Jeff Garland bring for the prize bag?
He brought two books.
You're holding it for him.
I'm holding it for him, yeah.
He brought two books, Consider the Lobster and The Last Interview, both by David Foster Wallace.
And the last interview, both by David Foster Wallace.
Who was the opening night movie, The End of the Tour, is about David Foster Wallace.
I bought those at the local bookstore here in Traverse City. So I'm working with the economy and giving it back to the people.
I could keep those and read them.
No.
I bought other books, too,
and I think that would be a good selection for somebody.
I'm glad you didn't bring Infinite Jest
because it would break the prize bag.
No, Infinite Jest is a big book.
Yeah, it's over a thousand pages.
I know another big book, you guys.
What's that?
It's a really good book.
Yes.
There's two testaments.
Yeah.
You want to...
Jeff, have you seen the film End of the Tour?
Yeah, we saw it yesterday. I was talking to the
other Jeff. Oh.
I saw you at the theater last night.
Oh, yeah, yeah. You forgot?
You know what's amazing?
Pot, it's like it never leaves your system.
You at all times have pot running through your system.
Don't say that.
Don't say that, because that's what all the cops are using now.
What do you mean?
As their defense.
What do you mean?
Well, yeah, like, you know, they say it's in your system, but it could be...
Lord knows there's a lot of cops in the crowd tonight.
And we know the number one
downloaders of the podcast
are America's police force.
Don't say that,
the cops. This is all they need.
We heard Jeff Garlin
on Doug Loves Movies.
You guys are fucked with your marijuana.
That's it.
We're bringing it down.
And, you know, you're safe, man.
And you don't have it as bad as Doug does.
You've been a lot more aware in our conversations.
Oh, yeah, totally.
Do you remember?
And do you remember?
You never forget something that happened a day away?
Like, that happens to everybody, especially old people.
Okay, Doug, let's take it another step back.
How many people do I know at this festival that are my friends from Los Angeles?
I have no idea.
Yeah, you forgot that, too.
You! You're it!
That's it?
You're it!
I'm the only one?
That's why. You had a're it! That's it? You're it! I'm the only one? That's why!
When I saw you, I rubbed your head
and I walked up the aisle.
It's true. And then I thought you just walked
right out of the theater and didn't see the
movie. So, did you
see the end of the tour?
I just realized I introduced it.
That's why I was okay. I forgot.
See, I forgot that.
So, it is possible. It is possible that I did introduce it and might've walked out and actually, ironically, I almost did walk out
because I was sitting in the last row. Oh, you don't like the last row? No, I love the last row.
No, I'm saying one more step past the last row and I've left.
So I took it as far as I could go and yet stay at the movie.
And it's the last row thing because you just don't want anybody behind you that might do something or is it paranoia?
Not from paranoia.
I love the last row because people are stupid.
First one out of the theater, you like that aspect of it?
Don't need that.
I can't consider.
I don't think I have no paranoia about any of that shit.
That's new shit.
No, but here's the thing.
People love to talk and share their living room experiences while in a public movie theater.
As if they're watching a Blu-ray or Apple TV
or however the fuck they get it.
DVD.
In a theater.
What's that?
DVD.
DVD is a popular format.
Are we just guessing how people watch movies?
Betamax?
No, that's before your time, Jesse.
Sometimes I just think about movies I've seen,
and then they run in my head.
Meet the Bloombergs.
But I was going to make the point, Jeff,
that, not you, Jeff, the other Jeff,
that End of the Tour is worth staying through
some of the credits at least
because they have a bonus scene.
It's like a Marvel movie.
But by the way,
it's actually a really sweet bonus scene
because you know it really happened. Yeah, it's sowing really sweet bonus scene. It is. Because you know it really happened.
Yeah.
It's sowing another side of an event that happens in the movie.
We don't want to say too much.
But that's a movie that people could go either way on.
You have to be patient for that movie because there's not much action.
Yeah, it's what they call a two-hander.
It's mostly two characters just speaking to one another in various settings.
But there's some dogs come in at various points.
The dogs? And by
the way, think of the audience's reaction
when the dogs come out. Oh my god,
audiences love dogs. They really
do. More than people. No, I have dogs
at home. I love my dogs, don't get me
wrong, but I don't get all giddy
when they show up on the screen. I'm okay
with it. I'm happy.
Not that happy.
And so in this movie,
I noticed that the audience,
the energy went way up
when the dogs would just come in
and their only purpose
was to lick a character.
The lady who sat behind us
thought it was hilarious
for some reason.
She loved it.
There was a lady sitting behind us
who, I hate when this happens,
who decided that it was a flat-out comedy and had to laugh at things that weren't funny at all.
And 600 other people were wrong.
Yeah, yeah.
Everyone else in the theater is silent, and she's, like, giggling because he takes some batteries out of his toothbrush to put them into his tape recorder.
Like, she laughed at shit like that.
Like, why is that funny?
That's a perfectly normal thing
for a person to do.
Go find some batteries
in one thing and move them
That's why I enjoy the last row
because she's stupid.
It cuts down on the number
of people you're near.
Yes.
You only have people
in front of you,
nobody behind you.
By the way,
the ones in front,
you don't really notice as much.
Because their voice goes from.
Right.
Would you say that you like
the back row because there's nobody behind you who could do something?
You're saying do something.
All I'm saying is they'll say shit and talk.
They're not going to do anything.
They're not going to stand up and put their wiener on the back of my neck.
There's nothing they're going to do.
So I want you to be more specific by saying the people enjoy
talking and laughing. You're ready, Dan. It's going to happen any second now. Hey, by the
way, how do you feel about popcorn eaters? Loud popcorn eaters. I had a movie today with
the people behind me. It was like they were eating a popcorn apple they're not eating hold on let's take a
couple steps back to where behind you let's slow down behind me and do something so by the way that
happened to me at the movie zodiac someone behind me this is a memory from eight seven eight ten
years ago yeah wait that's the only time it's ever happened, though, the laughing for... I went with Odenkirk
to Zodiac,
and the person
right behind us
thought it was
the funniest movie ever.
And Bob kept going,
what is he doing?
Why is he doing this?
And I go,
I don't know.
You talk to him.
And then Bob was finally,
it's not funny.
There's nothing funny.
David Fincher is the top comedy filmmaker of our generation.
Gone Girl had some laughs.
Now, in terms of popcorn eating, what those people are doing.
I remember that's where, by the way, Jeff, that's where it started.
That's what I'm going back to.
Oh, so when you said a couple of steps back, you were just like, I haven't finished talking about the other stuff you talked about.
Yeah, he's trying to conquer it all in order.
Yes.
So as far as the popcorn eating, for example, those people don't know how to eat popcorn.
They don't know how to put it in their mouth, chew it and swallow it.
Therefore, they are also stupid and they're sitting behind me.
So them, yes, you're right. It's someone sitting behind
me maybe doing something
because I have added
I have added
popcorn to my list.
It's not just the talking.
There's popcorn.
There's popcorn. And maybe laughing inappropriately.
So it's doing things behind.
Jeff has an interesting debate style.
I'm doing well, thank you.
I disagree, but you're right.
No, he's right.
I disagree.
Eventually, you're right.
Jeff, you're totally right, man.
You're right, Jeff, and I'm sorry.
I just quoted Doug from about ten minutes ago.
You were the last one to say it
Doug said it back right before you and
Odenkirk saw Zodiac
and we have worked our way back around
Zodiac is the only movie I've ever seen
by saying I would like one ticket to whatever's
longest
because I had to kill a lot of time one afternoon
did you really say that?
yeah and they were like Zodiac and then you know what
it was fucking hilarious
right these two old dicks in front of me one afternoon. Did you really say that? Yeah, and they were like, Zodiac, and then you know what? It was fucking hilarious.
Right?
These two old dicks in front of me
kept stink eyeing me.
Why are you laughing?
Why is this so funny?
They don't want me laughing.
Why'd they put
Drew Carey's brother in here
as the Zodiac killer?
Why is that hilarious
Robert Downey
in this movie?
He wasn't Iron Man yet.
No, he wasn't.
I wish Jake Gyllenhaal
would have been as funny in that movie as he was in Nightcrawler.
Oh, yeah.
That's a good point.
I have to give you credit for trying.
Thank you.
You're making an effort, you know.
You're a sophomore at college?
Yes, a rising sophomore.
Not bad.
Thank you.
He's 19, and what'd you bring for the prize bag?
Same age.
My son's the same age.
Keep going.
Oh, you should match them up.
So for, you're here once a year, Doug, and you might come back for the comedy festival,
but you never know your schedule.
So to satisfy the demand for Doug Benson, I brought the complete Nickelodeon series of Doug and seasons one and two of Benson.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah.
That's some thoughtful prize baggery right there.
By the way, that is clever.
And here's what's amazing to me.
What's amazing about this is he found Doug and Benson.
And I know that's your name, but these two things,
you'd think if you went into your local video store,
they're not going to have these.
You worked at it. Look at you, you young fucker.
You little pasternak bastard.
I also wonder what the
diagram of who's going to
like both.
Hey, do you want to watch
a cartoon, and is your grandma around?
Do you know how often I say that sentence?
Do you remember that soap spinoff?
I got the first two seasons on DVD.
I thought you were really asking, not setting up a joke.
I knew a young girl
for a little while. There was a
friend of a friend who had this kid
who, when I would come around, she would
call me Doug Funny.
And I thought it was because I was
funny, and I didn't know that Doug
in the TV show's last name is Funny.
Doug was a great show.
I watched it it because my kids
that was like their age
to watch it
you probably love Doug
oh I love Doug
it's great
Doug
yeah
Billy West is phenomenal
my friend
I don't want to
whatever
what the fuck
are they talking about
Dan Castellanato
I tried to tell you
what he's like
when he's on the show
robot devil
from Futurama
it's just crazy
to see it in real life.
You know what I mean?
Like, usually it's in my car
and I can hit that 15 second button.
Oh, me?
When you're me?
Oh, no, no.
We were talking about...
Oh, me?
Well, Doug and I were talking about
there's a definite amongst his fans.
Be weird if it was amongst my...
Well, I don't have fans.
But the point being is
there's a big love-hate.
A lot of people love me on the show.
A lot of people don't.
Would you say it's 50-50,
60-40, what is it?
I don't know. 80-20?
Please be in favor.
It sounds a lot like
it's just one of those take it or leave it things.
Like there's not a lot of action.
So you're the end of the tour of guests?
Oh, sorry, Doug.
I'm sorry to interrupt you.
You haven't had a chance to speak, and then I'm jumping all over you.
What were you saying?
Oh, I'm just saying that he's like the end of the tour of the guests.
Depends on your taste, and you either love him or hate him.
Interesting.
But you're like when a dog comes on
the screen and i'm like i'm like what made that lady behind us laugh where like everyone else is
like what the fuck but one person's like this guy's the best. And you're Doug.
What did you bring for the prize bag, Jeff?
I brought my albums.
They don't have...
They're just my two.
I got Potential and Just Another Clown.com.
Boom and boom.
And I brought Man on Fire.
The classic Denzel Washington.
I just got all my DVDs back,
and I realized that I had three copies of Man on Fire.
So I'm going to keep two, but one goes out there.
And if you've already seen it, yeah.
You got your DVDs back from where?
I lived a sort of life where I have abandoned everything I've owned more than once.
So I recently was able to track down all my DVDs,
two of which were Man on Fire,
and I already had one at the new place I live.
So now I have three.
You never did that before?
If you ever buy Man on Fire again,
I want to be there.
Okay.
Just hanging out.
I'm not going to comment. I'm going to let you do it.
I could easily stop
you, but I will keep it going.
I might have to do this just to see what it's like for you not to
comment.
You should.
Let's go out looking for man on fire next time you're
in L.A.
Listen, Jeff, I'm only 36. I'm going to fuck my life up again
and have to buy man on fire again.
And I will take advantage of this.
I will be like, I need you to come with me
to buy man on fire.
Also, I'm very hungry.
And is there a Baja Fresh nearby?
Or can I sleep on your couch?
You know, there's a lot of things
that's going to come up in that phone call.
And Jeff, if there's ever a scene on
Meet the Goldbergs where the...
Now it's Meet the Goldbergs?
It was Meet the Bloombergs.
Yeah, that was for fun.
Now I'm saying it properly.
There's no meet.
What? Oh, it's just the Goldbergs?
The Goldbergs. We don't want you to meet us.
Oh.
We want you to know us. Spend some time. It's the Goldbergs? The Goldbergs. We don't want you to meet us. Oh. We want you to know us.
Spend some time.
It's the Goldbergs.
All right.
Wednesdays, ABC.
Go.
So anyway.
So anyway.
On your show, Goldbergs.
HBO Now.
On your iPad.
Go.
Did I tell you to do that?
In all my movies are on Netflix.
Tell me go when it's my turn to talk,
and then when I start to talk, then he keeps going.
You know, last time I was on Conan,
I actually, after it was over,
I said, why do you have me on?
You know I'm not going to shut up.
Holy crap. All right, go.
Did Conan answer you,, did you let him, did you wait? Did you just shout that at him as you were leaving?
I let him answer. It was after the show. See, I'm very good with give and take, uh, when I'm acting
or when the cameras are off, when the cameras are on and it's me, Jeff Garland, third person, I never stop talking.
So you're saying next time you're on, I should prepare a script for you.
No, that was a joke to interrupt you.
Go ahead.
What are you saying now?
No, I stop talking.
This is like an improv scene.
No, it's not.
Just don't, Jeff, please just This is like an improv scene. No, it's not. No, it isn't.
Jeff, please just don't even speak to him.
That cuts it in half.
Because he's not going to not answer when you speak to him,
except for at the very top of the show when I was speaking to him. Hey, Doug, if you don't want me talking, don't have me on your goddamn show.
You have me on your show?
This is Dan.
Get ready.
This is the festival of me.
Go ahead.
Jeff, I've got a question for you.
Which one?
You'll know the question when you hear it.
Okay.
Which question it is.
Okay.
After the end of the tour last night,
did you see anything else here at the festival?
Did you see anything today?
No, no, I slept.
You had other things to do at the film festival.
I slept and swam.
Really?
Yeah, and then I showed, I saw two Chaplin shorts at the thing,
and I was with Geraldine Chaplin, his daughter, which was amazing.
And then I showed The Old Dark House.
Has anyone seen that before?
So you watched that.
It's amazing.
No, I didn't.
I left after I introduced it.
I've seen it 400 times.
That's why I selected it.
I didn't select a movie I've never seen.
And I went and took a nap and meditated.
And then I came here all fresh.
All right.
What about you, Jesse?
Jesse, you were a moderator for the Q&A
after a movie today in this very
theater. And that was probably the last
movie you've seen, right?
It was called Raiders!
The story of the greatest fan film ever made.
Thank you.
Really, really good.
Did you just say thank you?
You had something to do with it?
I don't know the proper...
But he did have something to do with it.
If it wasn't for kids like him,
who'd ever see that movie?
It's true.
It's about some young boys
who spend seven summers
basically just recreating
Raiders of the Lost Ark,
like shot for shot.
They're like little Gus Van Zants.
But they keep getting older,
like in boyhood?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, you only see clips from the movie they made.
You don't see the entire movie they made.
But yes, that's the premise.
And they shoot the airplane scene, the fight scene at the airplane.
They shoot that last.
They're full-grown adults in that scene that's hysterical it's it's
the whole thing is it's got so many layers and so much going on what was your favorite thing about
it jesse uh where to begin i just really uh loved uh the scenes where they were talking about all
the crazy stuff that happened to them like uh when they accidentally set the house on fire at one
point and just they talked about how they did it and they just the real passion and drive
they had for it was just amazing and it was really funny yeah these kids were
doing a lot of pyro and crazy stuff to try to achieve all the effects and
stunts in in the movie did the kid who has to disrupt the show quietly He said I love the scene with the grandma
Is what he wants me to say
Now who says is what he wants me to say
You've taken the fun out of it
Ah fuck you
I was going to make you say funny things
He took the fun out of it
He did
I was having fun
Trying to talk about this movie I'm passionate about
At a film festival
And then you whisper something about a grandma
On a little boy's ear
It was only going to grow from there
That was a start
Whatever
I'm glad he nipped that bit in the bud
Alright good I'm glad too
I also really wanted to see them do the next two Indiana Jones movies.
I really hope that they make a sequel where they just shoot Temple of Doom and every single shot.
And Raiders.
I mean, Last Crusade, too.
That'd be wonderful to just see people reenact.
And you think they should stop before Crystal Skull, right?
Oh, of course.
Yeah.
Maybe they could fix it.
Maybe they could just it. Maybe they could
just do it again, because it was kind of cool.
Just replace the refrigerator
stain in your car. Yeah.
Make that like a bigger refrigerator.
That's what I had a problem with. It just didn't seem
big enough.
It's funny. It seemed like it'd be real scary to be in such a tiny refrigerator.
Yeah, you'd go nuts, wouldn't you?
Yeah.
Who cares about an explosion and you fly up?
I'd rather die than be in a real tiny fridge like that.
Come on, man. The 50s were terrible.
What if Indiana Jones couldn't get out of the fridge like what happens to children every once in a while in a junkyard where they crawl in there and then they can't it's the thing your parents warn you about
that was also when you're in the fridge with the door shut it's scary because the light goes off
let me tell you something it would have been a valuable lesson to the world's children
if they had indiana jones died if an adult from being stuck in the refrigerator oh man what if
so many children would have learned.
What if there was a snake in the fridge and he had to
decide which one was worse?
The nuclear bomb or
a snake?
It's already better in our world.
Yeah. You want to make this?
No.
I've got to go to sleep.
I'm busy with
Meet the Press.
I am the new host of
Meet the Press, you are correct.
And I'll be wearing 1980s clothes
just to freak out the politicians.
George Segal will pop in
every once in a while to say a good lesson
and it'll be a great time.
George Segal!
He's Pops.
He's actually on the show.
He wasn't that clever.
No, I thought, I pictured Ellie and Gord.
That would be funny for them just to bring in a random actor just on Meet the Press.
Hello, everybody, this is George Siegel.
And everyone's like, why is George Siegel here?
I don't know.
I had a black son.
I think the George Siegel reference is probably a little too old for this crowd.
Poor George Segal.
I'm looking forward to, just wanted to mention for anybody that's seeing movies here at the festival,
because I've already seen a couple of the films,
and one of them that I really like and recommend is called A Brave Heart, The Lizzie Velasquez Story,
and that's playing later in the week.
I don't need to tell you anything more about it, because that's part of the fun of
a festival like this, is just
pick a movie and go, and then just fucking
experience it. Today I saw
Charlotte's Web.
Why didn't you say that earlier?
That is really weird
in a couple different ways.
The version they have does not
include the spider.
Yeah, I know, that's the version they have here. It the spider. Yeah, I know.
That's the version they have here.
It's weird.
Go see it at your own.
Yeah, a couple 11-year-old boys did a shot-by-shot remake of Charlotte's Web,
and they couldn't figure out how to train a spider,
so they just left that part out.
The movie Jeff saw was about a lady named Charlotte
who lied to a bunch of people and couldn't keep it all straight.
Yeah, of lies is in parentheses
at the end of the title.
All right, Jeff,
are you ready to move on
to the next game portion of the show?
If you're talking to me,
you bet, little lady.
No, I was talking to the other Jeff.
I'm not.
I really want to see Kill the Messenger
because I'm really bad
at delivering bad news.
And I hope this movie can really help me out with it.
You saw a movie here last year called Cold in July that I did not get to see.
And then I finally caught up with it on Showtime after like a year of you telling me it's a really great movie.
And I concur.
It's really great.
Which movie is this?
Cold in July.
That'd be weird.
Sam Shepard and Michael C. Hall.
Oh, and Shane Easton.
Yes.
That's the one.
That's it, yeah.
Yeah, it's for your eyes only.
So,
more super old references.
Here's the part of the show
where I say,
let the games begin!
Lots of people brought clever and fun name tags, Jeff.
And while you guys pick who you want to play for,
we're going to go to a brief commercial message.
We'll be right back.

Back to the show.
All right, we're back.
Who are you playing for, Jeff?
Matt Night Run.
Matt.
And he's got our faces over De Niro and Charles Grodin.
Yeah, yeah, I'm De Niro.
Yeah, I'm Grodin.
You're Grodin.
I got you.
Let's do a shot-for-shot remake of Midnight Run.
Yeah.
With the two of us in those roles.
That would be super awesome.
I love it.
That lady over there made a human centipede poster,
but she put her face first and mine last
and yours in the middle.
That's just wildly disrespectful.
Yeah.
Why'd you make me and Jeff butt to nut?
Yeah.
And why am I last?
I gotta eat both your shit?
Fuck you.
Weird Japanese movie-liking face-making poster.
Who are you playing for, Jesse?
I'm playing for Mark of the Penguins.
Mark, I'm playing for Mark.
Open it up.
Oh, sure.
I'm playing for Mark.
His poster is Mark of the Penguins,
Mark with a C,
and it's the March of the Penguins poster
with his name photoshopped in.
It's very good.
What's his name?
Oh. That's a great description of the Penguins poster with his name photoshopped in. It's very good. What's his name? Oh.
That's a great description of the name tag.
I've had people, somebody on Twitter recently asked me,
how do these name tags work?
What do they look like?
I'm like, every episode we describe them,
but that's finally a great description of one of the name tags.
He knows exactly what to do now if his name is Mark with a C.
You're just a sweet boy.
Thank you.
Who are you playing for, Jeff?
I'm playing for Hay League of their own.
I imagine her name's Haley?
Yeah, Haley.
It's Hay League of their own.
But this is someone who actually
put something and put a lot more work into it
than your fuckers.
This is good, Haley.
I like it.
That's why I picked you.
I think you all did a great job
of picking name tags
and thank you to everybody
for bringing the name tags.
Yeah, thank you to everybody.
Yes, yes, thank you.
I didn't know we were all doing it this time.
Can I ask a question of the person who was thinking this?
Why does it say that on the back?
How many times have you been on the show, dummy?
Is that a game?
Yeah, that's the end.
Yeah, how many times have you done the show now, you think?
I don't remember.
At the end of the show, if you lose tonight,
which you never lose,
but if you do, their consolation prize, Haley,
is I'm going to call whoever she asked me to a shithead at the end of the show.
Oh, Gwyneth Paltrow.
All right.
Why don't you pick somebody popular?
All right, we're good.
Okay.
There's none on the back of mine.
So yeah, we'll have to...
Yeah, you're going to win, man.
Explore that later.
You know everything about every fucking movie ever.
He's never won the game, though, strangely enough.
Did Dan win last time?
Dan won, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Literally, you stepped in and successfully won.
Yeah, it was exciting.
Is that you?
Oh, look at you and your history.
Something.
Successfully won is a fun way to say win.
Right?
Did you unsuccessfully or successfully win?
You unsuccessfully won last year.
Well, you could unsuccessfully win.
Let's say you come up here and your zipper's open.
People laugh at your wiener, but you won the game.
I wouldn't call that a successful win.
I'd call that an unsuccessful win.
Because you're embarrassed, but yet you're a winner.
Jeff, we're comics, man.
That sounds like a great set.
Just they're laughing and you win.
Who cares why they're laughing?
No one ever knows why anyway.
Okay, we're 12 minutes behind.
The first game we're going to play tonight is Build a Title.
Long time listeners to the show miss it when we don't play it for a long time,
but it's a tough one for me to explain to new guests,
and I think these three can handle it.
We're going to start with Jeff Tate,
and the title that we're going to build upon this evening,
because I'll be interrupting it tomorrow night here in Traverse City,
in this very theater, is Top Gun.
So, Jeff, do you need a movie that ends with top or begins with gun? View from the Top Gun. So, Jeff, you need a movie that ends with top or begins with gun.
View from the Top Gun.
View from the Top.
Starring, oddly enough, Gwyneth Paltrow.
All right, Jesse, you need something that ends in view
or begins with gun.
Oh.
We got view from the top gun.
Starts with view, ends with gun.
Ends with view or begins with gun.
You can't say the view because it's a TV program.
I'm sorry, I can't.
I appreciate you apologizing.
Does that mean he's eliminated?
He might be, Jeff.
Give him a second.
All right.
Gun blank.
Sorry.
Oh, gun, and then.
And then like a movie.
Other words.
Oh, so gun and then other words. Yeah, yeah a movie. Other words. Oh, so gun, and then other words.
Yeah, yeah.
You know a movie that starts with the word gun?
Gun Crazy.
There you go.
There you go.
Yeah.
You did it.
Look at you, Jeff.
And by the way, that's where I was going to Gun Crazy, so good for you.
All right, so we've got View from the top gun crazy, Jeff, so you need something that starts
with crazy or
ends with view. Crazy from
the heat? What's that?
A movie?
Who was in that? I have
no idea.
What's her name, I think? Pippi Longstocking?
What the hell's her name? The one who's
in the movie where she goes
hiking, I think. Reese Witherspoon? I think Reese Witherspoon. Yeah, Reese Witherspoon. What the hell is her name? The one who's in the movie where she goes hiking.
I think.
Reese Witherspoon?
I think Reese Witherspoon.
Yeah, Reese Witherspoon.
I think.
I'm not sure.
It's one of those movies I've never seen.
Well, we're going to see if that's one of those movies that doesn't exist.
No, it exists.
Crazy from the what?
Heat.
No, I'm sorry.
Seriously?
Let's see here.
It's not listed in Leonard Maltin's guide, so...
Alright, then I'm out. I'm suspect.
I thought Crazy was Meat. I could have...
Oh, fuck it.
I'm done.
Okay, Jeff Tate.
Crazy Heart.
Yep.
Oh, that's a movie I was thinking of.
Crazy from the heart.
Crazy from the heat, really?
Fuck, I'm going to look at my phone.
All right, so...
Does anyone know that movie?
We've got View from the Top Gun, Crazy Heart.
So you need...
Jesse, you need something that begins with heart
or ends with view.
I can think of one
for each because I'm not in
the game and it's easier.
Crazy from
the view is what Jeff just whispered into his
ear.
Or how about
heart crazy? I was going to say heart crazy?
I was going to say heart crazy.
Really? Is that a deal?
Is it?
No.
Wait, crazy heart?
I don't know.
You can tell them what I told you.
I love, what is it?
I love jizz and something?
What is it?
Jizz and heat?
You did it.
You're good.
You're good.
All right. I'm glad you brought this game i realize crazy from the heat is um david lee roth's autobiography
i swear to god which i'd go see if that was a movie oh my god i'd be so in
my mistake sorry i knew it was a title, oh my god, I'd be so in. My mistake.
Sorry.
I knew it was a title.
It just fucked me up.
All right. So Jeff Tate is our winner on that one.
Yay.
Yay.
Hooray, Jeff Tate.
Heart of Darkness.
Sure, I guess so.
I was going to say uh heart beeps is one and then uh a room with a view would be
one that yeah all right uh let's play whose tagline is it anyway you guys
a newish game uh we'll start with uh jeff tate again and then it's going to come to you jeff
garland so if jeff can't get this right,
then you get a chance to steal it.
So hold your tongue until it's your turn.
I mean, you could say stuff, but just don't guess.
Jeff, which movie from all the movies ever made
had the tagline,
Exploring the Blackness of Subconscious Man!
Exclamation point. Oh, I know.
I just gotta remember it, but I know what movie that is.
You gotta feel for it, but this is Jeff Tate gets to guess.
Oh, fuck.
Exploring the Blackness of subconscious man?
Yeah.
Since nobody's guessed anything yet, I'll give all three of you a clue.
It's been sort of mentioned this evening already, this movie.
Sort of.
I know.
Okay, Jeff thinks he knows it.
Jeff Tate, do you have a guess?
Exploring the blackness of subconscious man.
Apocalypse Now.
No.
Yeah,
because you mentioned
Heart of Darkness.
Jeff Garlin,
what do you think?
If I say who wrote it,
does that count?
If you say who wrote it
and you're right
and I think you're right,
then yes,
I will.
Paddy Chayefsky.
No.
Really?
This was not written
by Paddy Chayefsky.
You think he's the only person that can explore the blackness of subconscious man?
No, I thought it was that movie with William
Altered States
Altered States is what I thought it was
Okay, my mistake
That's an interesting guess
Jesse, do you have a guess?
I'm going to say Spellbound
That is a great guess
Because the exclamation point was kind of a clue
Because back then The taglines had exclamation points was kind of a clue because back then the tag
lines had exclamation points because they were really trying to
talk people into this is the craziest thing you're ever
going to see in the ads
but it was for the motion picture Psycho.
Oh.
But Spellbound was a really great guess.
This kid is good, Jeff.
That he is.
Thank you.
He's a sweet boy, a good boy.
Some girl's mother is going to be fucking thrilled.
I'm like your son on the Goldbergs.
The girl's not going to be all that thrilled, but her mother is going to be over the moon.
She's going to be like, you found one.
You found a nice boy.
Oh, for Clebs, thank you one. You found a nice boy. Oh, I'm perplexed.
Thank you.
This is why...
Never mind.
Moving on.
We're going to do another one since nobody got that one.
Jeff, what movie has the tagline...
Jeff Tate, I should say.
Which movie has the tagline...
Uh-oh.
No exclamation point point Just uh-oh
Was SpaghettiOs ever a movie?
From the makers of the Lego movie
It's SpaghettiOs the movie
Do you want to do a real guess?
No
The Poseidon Adventure.
Yeah.
That'd be a great one for that.
Oh, that's awesome.
The boat flipped over.
Uh-oh.
Jack Garland, what do you think?
Dumb and Dumber.
Oh.
That's a fun guess.
Incorrect.
I know it's incorrect, but, you know, it would work.
It would.
It would work for a lot of movies.
Jesse, do you think you know which one?
I probably don't, but I'm going to say Honey, I Blew Up the Baby.
What?
Wow.
The third one.
Uh-oh.
Yeah.
San Andreas?
San Andreas?
Just list off every disaster movie
How about just a drama with Gwyneth Paltrow
Uh oh
Sliding doors
Uh oh, should have took that door
I never saw that movie
It was the very recent
And very popular Minions had the tagline.
Oh, dear God.
Make it go away.
Fucking Minions.
All right.
We get to do another one.
Fucking Minions.
Jeff Tate gets to start us off.
Can I just say something about Minions?
If you want to release your movie, go ahead.
Just don't put them everywhere.
Have you seen Minions yet?
No, but they're everywhere.
They're on buses. They're in windows.
I was
showering and they were on my
soap. It's just
make the minions go away.
I bought the new Neil Young
album. The CD was
shaped like a minion.
I don't like it.
Did it have denim on the CD?
Did it have the denim overalls?
You're taking it too far.
You move quick and you get out before they think.
You're taking it too far, the Jeff Garlin story.
Minion on the beach?
Isn't that the name of a new animal on the beach?
I don't know, we were talking at the same time.
The Monsanto one?
The songs from Monsanto.
Here we go, Jeff. Tate.
What movie has the tagline
The Extraordinary True Story of Solomon Northup?
Twelve Years a Slave?
That's correct.
All right, Jeff Garland, you get a new one.
All heroes start somewhere.
All heroes start somewhere.
Hmm.
Well,
Caddyshack?
I thought you'd guess a movie
that has sandwich making in it,
but no, not Caddyshack.
Jesse, do you have a guess for all heroes start somewhere?
If I was going for sandwiching movies, I'd say Chef,
but since I'm thinking it's like a superhero,
I'm going to say Iron Man 2.
Again, with the amazing guess that is wrong,
but still so in the wheelhouse,
Guardians of the Galaxy.
Yeah, it was a different Marvel movie.
Can I just say something here, and I'm going to no matter what?
What this does is it gives credit to the marketing department,
which is really the enemy of all filmmaking.
I don't want to play this game anymore.
So,
because there's no way I'll fucking get this.
These are all stupid. So you two
go ahead. I'll do the next thing.
Okay. Someone's calling me.
That seems fair. I agree. You'll probably
never get it, so why not just
give these other guys a chance.
What's that? I got crazy from the heat that's my diagnosis for your behavior that you're crazy from the heat
oh no we dropped that expensive thing why do i have to hold it anyhow i didn't want to hold it
no didn't want to hold the water but i had to drink it so i had to hold it anyhow? I didn't want to hold it. I didn't want to hold the water, but I had to drink it,
so I had to keep it near me because I'm not going to bend over and grab water.
I only want to do one more because you don't want to play this anymore.
Okay.
I was ready to stop, but as soon as you announced that you don't want to play.
So you're doing one more to spite me.
Yes, yes.
Jeff Tate gets to start us off, and then we'll go
to Jesse, and Jeff Garland does not
get to play.
Jeff, what movie has the tagline,
some people just don't belong?
Some people just don't
belong.
The Duff.
Oh, that's an awesome guess.
That's a very good guess. That's a great guess.
Holy shit, that's my favorite guess. That's a very good guess. That's a great guess. Holy shit, that's my favorite guess of the night.
In both games.
Please keep ranking guesses.
Well, you did it.
The show goes on.
You did it with his guess.
I didn't rank it.
All right, fine.
That's my favorite.
What the hell do you want?
All right, it's number three.
There's a rank.
Jesse, what do you think it is?
Some people just don't belong.
The Silence of the Lambs?
By the way, again, a fantastic...
That'd be a fun way to spin that, but...
Station agent.
Why are you still guessing?
Station agent.
That's the best one yet.
Oh, that's awesome.
I didn't know if be long was one word or two.
You know what's so funny?
There's no way station agent even had a tagline.
It might have.
It might have, but you know, come on.
Okay, Jeff, you don't have a guess
for some people don't belong, just don't belong?
Well, you know, Animal House?
No, it's Caddyshack.
All right.
That's why I want to keep playing.
I was along the thing, you know.
That's why I want to keep playing,
because the very next one after Guardians of the Galaxy
was Caddyshack.
Oh, it was actually Caddyshack.
Which you fucking guessed, yeah.
All right, well, I was early.
It was actually Caddyshack, yes.
All right, but my mind felt Caddyshack.
My body said Animal House.
And I have a taste for Jell-O.
Go figure.
All right, Jeff gets to go first.
Yes.
And then we'll go to Jesse, Jeff Tate.
And we're going to play Reverse Malton.
Reverse Malton.
It's the old Leonard Malton game with a new twist.
And that is, I'm going to give Jeff Tate three movies to choose from.
He's going to pick the one he thinks he knows the most actors and actresses from.
The one he thinks he can name the most.
And then he's going to bid.
I'm going to tell him how many people Leonard lists.
He's going to bid on how many he can name in no particular
order. And then
Jesse's going to have a chance to bid more or
ask him to name them.
Oh, this is going to be good.
I think so. I'm excited.
I'm feeling tension in the room because there's actual
skill
involved in this.
There's skill in the other games.
Skill you don't possess,
but...
So it's obviously a skill I
don't respect.
Wait, you don't
respect people that play tennis?
I can play tennis. You're good at it?
Didn't say that, but I can
play it. I just don't play marketing
games. Keep your games going. Let's go.
It's definitely up to 30% at least.
Jeff, which one of these do you think you can name the most people in it?
Up in Smoke, Up in the Air, or Up?
Oh, wow.
Which one of those do you think you know more of the cast? or Up. Oh, wow.
Which one of those do you think you know more of the cast?
I'm going to say... Wait.
I just almost said three.
But I should say a movie first, right?
Yeah, pick which film.
Up in the Air.
Don't leave us hanging.
Okay, Up in the Air is a movie that has,
Leonard has listed 11 names.
I think so, yeah, 11 names.
How many out of those 11 names
do you think you could pull out of the air
from the movie Up
in the Air?
I'm going to say three. You're going to stick with that bid.
He says he can name three people
in the film Up in the Air. Jesse, do you
think you could name more
or do you want to? I'm going to say six.
Six names!
The kid came to play.
Now, Jeff, you
could bid more names
or you could challenge...
I wish you picked up and smoke
because I could have picked a lot of good ones
and up and smoke and beaten everybody,
but instead I'm going to challenge you.
All right, so...
George Clooney...
Hold on.
Slow down, slow down.
You know, you young young kids in your speed.
You think because you're hard all the time and you're fast.
You can just do what you want.
Take your time.
That's what the old man says.
Take your goddamn time.
Thank you, every police commissioner in every single movie ever.
Police commissioner?
Yeah.
I can do Adam West.
I don't do police commissioners.
Maybe I'll play one one day.
You know, he's like the captain.
He's like, you guys are the worst.
Get out of here.
Get your stuff together.
Go.
Solve this case.
It's going to be the main movie.
Do you want me to do that guy?
I will.
No, do Adam West talking to Commissioner Gordon.
All right.
So help me, Commissioner.
If they've harmed the Aunt Harriet, I will get the Riddler and show him what I'm made of.
Quick, boy, run to wonder.
Tell Chief O'Hara we're leaving.
Did I say do a whole episode of Batman?
Go ahead, I'm sorry.
Did you guys...
It is my only impression.
And Doug knows that flat out.
Did you guys notice that when he was doing Adam West,
Doug took a drink from his water?
That's good impressionism.
Are you making a ventriloquist joke?
Ventriloquism.
Yeah.
Right?
All right, go ahead, kid.
All right, and we're not going to say,
I'm not going to say if you're right or wrong on any of these
until we've heard six names.
Go for it.
George Clooney, Anna Kendrick, Vera Farmiga,
Zach Galifianakis, J.K. Simmons, Danny McBride.
Who?
Oh, Danny McBride?
Yeah.
Who?
That's correct.
That's correct.
Who told you you're going to win tonight?
Tonight's your night, my friend.
Even though your family's here, you're going to get laid.
Thank you.
Watch.
Watch.
All right.
All right.
Jeff gets to pick the next one.
And Jesse has one point.
We're playing to two points.
And Jeff Garland, you're going to go second on this round.
So you'll be up after Jeff makes his opening bid.
Okay, sounds good.
And I don't know anybody that's more excited than Jeff Tate
about the latest Mission Impossible movie opening tomorrow?
Oh, holy shit, yeah, man.
I've been camped out for that for a month.
I'm not even here right now.
Would you like
Mission Impossible, Mission Impossible 2,
or Mission Impossible
Ghost Protocol?
Which one of those can you name
the most actors from?
I figure you've got at least one name on lock.
Mission Impossible.
The first one.
The first one.
Mission, colon, impossible.
Yes.
Leonard lists eight names.
Eight names.
Yeah, how many out of eight names do you think you can pull from the very first Mission Impossible film?
Seven.
What?
That's sick.
I guess Jeff Garland's just going to have to yell
I challenge you again.
Because do you think you could say eight of them, Jeff?
Well, here's the thing.
If I could, I would have
not read a book before.
No, I'm not saying Jeff hasn't read.
I'm saying, to know Mission Impossible that well,
now we're talking about the TV,
I'm just going to shut up and challenge, go.
Say I'm an improviser, I just start rambling.
See, that's the thing about me talking so much,
I ramble because I'm finding.
I find the comedy. Oh, let us know
when you get to something.
When you hear the audience laugh.
No laughter, I've not
reached my destination.
Oh, shit. I should have packed my stuff.
All right, so I'm challenging him on
the seven. And we're giving him the extra time.
Look, he's working. He's working. Right.
He's working his brain while you're talking.
Go ahead. So we should go ahead.
J-A-F.
Seven names.
Ving Rhames. Yep.
John Voight. Yep.
Jane Reno.
Did I say that right?
Jean Reno.
No, but...
From Les Professionnels. What. From Les Professionnels?
What?
From Les Professionnels?
Yes.
No, from Mission Impossible.
Oh.
No, it's the same actor, though.
Oh.
All right, go ahead.
You got three.
Yeah.
You need seven.
No, I know.
I know.
Kristen Scott Thomas.
Emilio Estevez.
Henry Jernick.
I can't pronounce that guy's last name.
There's like a C and a Z and a Y.
He was in Cleaner Press of Danger.
And Tom Cruise.
Wait, you hadn't said Tom Cruise yet?
No, I saved him for last because I was scared I didn't know seven.
So I went that way.
Did I do it?
You did it.
But I can't pronounce it.
Hold on.
Yeah, I'll give you that one.
Henry Scherzny or something like that.
Yeah, I'll give you that one.
I knew that you knew who you were talking about.
Yeah.
Not black or white, right or wrong.
That's from his scene in Clear and Present Danger.
But here is what you didn't take account,
and it makes me a little sad because you killed it,
except for this,
and now we're going to have to give a point to Jeff.
Oh, no.
Garland.
This is always how I win, by the way.
Was it Kristen Thomas?
She's in there, Kristen Scott Thomas.
Emilio Estevez, not Bill?
Emilio Estevez appeared in that film, Unbilled.
Oh.
Yeah, and the seventh name is Vanessa Redgrave.
Now, as far as I'm concerned.
Or eighth name.
No, no, no.
Let's really examine this.
Who else did I leave out?
We need to examine this.
You didn't leave anybody else out.
You listed Emilio.
I don't feel right getting that point.
Because that is fucked up that he got Emilio Essence.
I know it's the rules.
But, you know, I'll take the point.
I'll take it.
But nonetheless, I don't feel right.
I feel like I got that in the wrong way.
That's all.
It was like a bad call at third base.
All right, go ahead.
So just for fun, Jeff.
Yeah.
Up in smoke, six names.
How many?
Up in smoke.
Yeah.
You said I wish they picked up in smoke because I could really kill it.
Hold on.
Okay, I can do four.
I don't think anybody else on the panel can do more, right?
I can do five.
Really? Really?
Are you fucking kidding me?
No, I'm just taking this from you.
Change Marin.
Wait, stop.
Do you want to say you could do six, Jeff?
No, I'm at four, man.
That's it.
I could do two.
And is there an ampersand in between those names?
No, that's like Garland.
No, you did it.
You're going to lose tonight based on technicality.
No, you have to name five.
You do.
You did it.
You can't fuck around with this game.
All right, Tom.
Especially when we're just in between rounds, just fucking around.
Tommy Chong, Cheech Marin, Paul Rubens, Timothy Leary, and Stacy Keach.
Stacy Keach is correct, but Paul Rubens wasn't in the first one.
He was in one of their later.
He was in Nice Dreams.
And what was the other one you said?
Timothy Leary?
Maybe he was in it, but he's not
one of the six listed.
So Jeff, who do you think is another person that was in that?
Molly Ringwald,
Chita Rivera,
Ben Vereen,
Titty Fuckerma.
Molly Ringwald
is in that movie?
That's the only one you're questioning?
You're like, cool with Titty Fuck Irma?
I mean, Jeff's been a comedian a long time.
I figured that was like an old Catskills lady
who did a cameo or something.
Here's why you should have challenged me
and not done it.
Because I was going to say Paul Rubens, too.
Look at that, you arrogant piece of shit.
I've had it with you and your games, Jeff.
All you do is play games.
I'm super cocky.
Doing the game part of the show.
Wait, so have I won now?
Is it over if I've won?
No, you haven't done shit.
No, I...
Wait a minute.
That's two. I have two.
Didn't you say we're playing to two?
I guess you missed the point where I said, just for fun,
let's see how many you know, because you were so cocky about up and swimming.
I wasn't cocky.
You said, I wish I'd picked that, because I know a lot of names in that.
I wish I did, but sometimes wishes don't come true the way you want them,
and that's what have happened to me.
Tom Skerritt, Edie Adams and Strother Martin.
I would have gotten none of those.
Do your Strother Martin
impression for us.
I got his shoes. I got his
shoes. That's what I did.
I got his shoes. You can't have those shoes.
Yeah, I got his shoes.
Anyone know what movie that is?
Oh, brother, where are they?
No.
That's The Wild Bunch.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, a scene from The Wild Bunch with Strother Martin.
Okay, now do Adam West quoting Strother Martin in Cool Hand Luke.
It appears that we have a failure to communicate.
So help me if you put another egg in your mouth.
I'm going to go have sex with that car wash girl.
I forgot about that egg line. Yeah, okay.
And the car wash reference.
All right, so, here, let me give you the official recap, Jeff.
Okay.
You have one point, Jesse has one point, and Jeff... No, no, no, I have two.
Shut up.
No, I've won.
Yes.
Stop it.
You have to have me back on a Tournament of champions episode. And you don't want to do that.
That's what happens every time.
I'm so unwelcome on those fucking tournament of champions.
You're like, Jeff did it. God damn him.
But I've won, my friend.
I have won here in Traverse City.
I didn't like how I won one of them, but I did.
I told the kid he'd win, but here's the thing.
Can I do this?
I'm going to give my championship to the boy.
You know why?
You haven't won yet.
Jesse gets to go first.
Thank you.
This is his chance to take this thing down.
We said you were playing to two.
Yeah, and you don't have two points.
How would I not have two points?
Because, first of all, you think you got a point for up in smoke,
and you completely fucked that up. Well, hold on.
He, he, I challenged
him. And he did it. Yeah, and
we were doing Up in Smoke just for fun
because you said, I wished we could have done
Up in Smoke. Oh, alright, so I have one.
I don't argue.
I'm all good.
Just one. Alright.
So many of Jeff's wishes have come true
That he denies some of them sometimes
If Jeff was sitting in the middle
I'd say well the middle seat
In Terra For City is cursed
But he's not even in the right seat for that joke
So Jesse gets to pick
Between three films
And then
It is going to come at you, Jeff Garlin.
Okay.
You're going to be next.
So,
get ready to yell,
I challenge.
By the way,
I'm rooting for the kid.
Just know that.
So.
Okay.
So then,
I don't know what your strategy
is going to be then.
No, no.
So,
just say like,
I know one,
and you're safe.
Oh,
thank you.
That's interesting.
Sorry about that, Jeff Tate.
No, Jesse's not going to do that.
Jesse loves showing us how much he knows about stuff.
That's true.
Yeah, but he also likes a nice leisurely evening.
He is wearing walking shoes, so yeah, he likes to fucking take it easy.
Yeah, I left my boots for the soles are spikes at home What?
Oh, that was a reference to how many times I fell down
At the winter festival
Whoa, nice callback that nobody got
I was just saying that like
When I don't like it
Easy and leisurely
But yeah, that was great
I take credit for that
Jesse, wait No, that was great. Yeah, I take credit for that.
Jesse,
wait.
No, don't try and understand. Just embrace
and enjoy the youth of America.
The Indiana
Hoosiers are proud to present
a family
Pasternak Christmas.
Yes, the
entire Pasternak family is joining us
this year in their walking
shoes with spikes.
They're going to sing carols
all over the IU campus.
Everyone will be enjoying
themselves as the Jewish
Pasternaks celebrate
Christmas in a way they've never
done before. At the end
of the episode, the littlest Pasternak will get laid.
Coming soon to ABC on Wednesdays.
That'll be a perennial Christmas special, the littlest Pasternak.
Little Pasternak Jugman Christmas.
Yeah.
All right, little Pasternak.
You get to choose between three films
that I have clumped together,
and they are
Life of Brian,
Monty Python's The Meaning of Life,
and A Fish Called Wanda.
I'm going to pick A Fish Called Wanda.
Okay, and Leonard...
Lists... Right? He knows stuff from before he was born
that you don't know when you were living.
Right?
And Leonard lists eight names, Jesse.
How many of those
can you name
for this R-rated feature film
that you probably
shouldn't have even seen?
Five.
He says five names,
Jeff Garlin.
Oh, littlest pasternak.
Little, little, little,
little, little, little
pasternak.
I say, now is your time to grab the crown
Oh, grab it, littlest Pasternak
On this Christmas Eve
Little, little Pasternak
I'm a character named Jeeves
Now go ahead.
Go.
All right, so...
That's the second Christmas song you've sang,
and for an hour you're just like, I'm Jewish,
and now you're singing Christmas songs.
Have you ever heard that Christmas song before?
That would be one I just made up.
You know, Jeff, before you judge.
I've heard that song before.
I've heard that song before.
I've heard that song before.
Okay.
The Night Before Christmas was written by a Jew.
Ish person.
A Jewish person.
You can't just say...
Thank you for correcting me.
You're 18. You're not
everyone's grandpa yet.
That was the worst mic drop in the history of mic drops.
I might as well have thrown it
into a pillow.
That second one
was a little better.
All right,
five names, Jesse.
Kevin Kline,
Jamie Lee Curtis,
Michael Palin,
John Cleese,
Stephen Fry.
Mmm.
Somebody likes
delicious apples
early on Christmas morning.
What?
I didn't get it?
I'm sorry.
Is it because he's a cameo?
It's because, yeah, he did not get listed.
Stephen Fry, but you got those other four right.
You got us.
So, I have won again.
Because I have never lost
And two times these gentlemen
Proved their intellect
And yet who profits from it?
Me
You'd think I was a Republican
But no
But no
I'm an innocent liberal
Who's just getting swept away
With excitement And I'd like to sing Oh, little is Pastor Neck But no, I'm an innocent liberal who's just getting swept away with excitement.
And I'd like to sing.
Oh, littlest pasternak, you got the answer wrong.
Oh, littlest pasternak, you're my favorite one.
Littlest pasternak, someday you'll be the tall one.
Fasterneck, someday you'll be the tall one.
Fasterneck, said Jesus to Santa on Christmas Eve.
Haley, come get your prize bag.
Haley.
Does she get her picture back?
Yeah, she does.
Here you are, Haley.
Haley, look how life works, right? It does say Gwyneth Paltrow on it.
Yeah.
I just thought that's the sort of gag answer you would say.
No, she's too young and lovely.
All right. And there's no name on the sort of gag answer you would say. No, she's too young and lovely. All right.
And there's no name on the back of the name.
I would say Margaret Dumont.
Mark of the Penguins.
If I was saying a name, Margaret Dumont or whoever played a part on Bewitched.
Where's Mark of the Penguins?
Where are you at?
Where?
Who should I call a shithead?
It could be anybody you want.
Okay.
Who?
Okay. Do? Okay.
Do you know who Ben Roethlisberger is?
Well, thanks, Jeff, for repeating it into a microphone.
How do you pronounce it?
Roethlisberger?
Okay.
Jeff, do you have any plugs?
Should we watch you on ABC on Meet the Roethlisbergers?
Jeff, do you have any plugs?
Should we watch you on ABC on Meet the Roethlisbergers?
Truth is, my success has run away with itself,
and I don't need any help.
There's nothing your podcast or this audience can do to change it one way or the other.
It ain't going to bring me down,
and I certainly ain't going to be brought up.
So you know what, Doug?
I'm napping if people want to find me.
I'm taking a nice good nap
and I'm going to
spend my Christmas.
Jeff, how much do you want
to bet that by the time Jesse
and Jeff and I say our plugs, you'll think
of something you want to plug and then you will say it?
That's what usually happens.
There's only one thing I want to plug tonight.
That is the night of December
24th.
All the
networks will be airing
one show and one show
only. They've all come together
in agreement that nothing should
be in competition with
Christmas with the Pasternak.
Can I have... Hold on a second. Can I have the Pasternak. Can I have, hold on a second.
Can I have the Pasternak family
please come up here?
For the Pasternak family.
Where are the Pasternak?
Come on up here.
Step up here.
The Pasternak family.
You know what would be great, Jeff, right now?
What?
If you serenaded the Pasternaks
with a special Batman Christmas song.
With their special guest
on the episode of Adam West.
The Pasternak family is here.
And here I go.
For you listeners at home,
this is Adam West.
You've already rehearsed it with him
so you know how it goes.
But this is Adam West on a've already rehearsed it with him so you know how it goes. But this is Adam West
on a Pasternak Christmas.
Oh
bless
ye
merry
Pasternak
family
it's time for
Christmas.
Hanukkah has passed.
Dream!
Dream!
So the...
Dream!
Hanukkah has passed.
What are you doing?
Hanukkah has passed.
I was singing like Adam West, but I can't sing like Adam West, so I'll sing like me.
Doug, as Jeff is giving his things, I'm going to be serenading the Pasternak family.
No, those are not going to happen at the same time.
Yes, it is.
You have to respect the plug.
Oh, bless ye merry Pasternak.
You're the ones I love.
Christmas morning
under the tree, the littlest
Pasternak has to be.
We wait to open
presents. We wait to open presents. We wait to open presents.
Because the littlest Pastor Knack
takes so goddamn long to pee.
He goes in the bathroom.
Remember, Mom said lift the seat.
So he does.
He's a good little Pastor Knack.
He pees and washes his hands
on Christmas morning.
They're proud of him.
Now dad dances.
And he's back.
Thank you.
As you know,
can I give credit where credit's due?
I wrote the book
to the Pasternak family
Christmas. Lady Gaga wrote
the music. The words. Lady Gaga wrote the music.
The words are mine, but the music's
all hers. Lyrics by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
What's that? No, you stay here.
Thanks, you guys.
The Pasternak's must stay.
The Pasternak's are just going to hang out for the rest of the show.

Corinne LaPook.
She didn't want to get involved with the Pasternak excitement.
But she is the mother.
Yeah, she...
Is LaPook your middle name, boys?
Okay, all right.
You're not freaks then.

You got any exciting classes coming up in the fall?
I'm going to be back at Indiana University.
You can find me at the Indiana University Cinema.
I'm a writer for the Indiana Daily Student. You can follow me on Twitter, at Jesse Pasternak.
The paper's called The Daily Student?
Yeah.
I would like people to follow me
on Instagram. I just thought of that.
I'm not on Twitter. That's a
choice.
At Jeff Garland.
You know, the
photo one. Instagram. Yeah, at Jeff Garland.
There's a lot of excitement.
If you were going to follow Jeff on Twitter.
As a matter of fact, I'm going to get a picture of the Pasternak family and post it to Instagram right now.
Keep going.
And I'm going to go black and white.
I'm using the Lenka app.
Yeah, here we go.

There you go.
A little bit more forward. A little bit more forward.
A little bit more.
They're stuck with us now.

Now we're good.
Jeff Tate is dead.
My next...
Jeff's lying on the floor for the people at home.
All it's going to be, if you go to my Instagram, hashtag Pastor Nick.
Nothing more.
Get up, Jeff.
Get up.
It's not that bad.
It's the Pasternak's.
By the way, he's playing Santa.
The Pasternak family Christmas.
It's like a hip new twist on Santa.
Bro, you got anything to plug?
What?
Now the fucking Pasternak's are plugging shit.
Are all the Pasternak's going to plug? It is fucking Pasternak's are plugging shit? Are all the
Pasternak's gonna

It is the
Pasternak family,
Jeff.
You're just gonna
have to deal with it.
They have like
their own jobs and
shit where they
don't need this.
No, they got a
family Christmas
they gotta promote.
Hey, can I come on
Meet the fucking
Goldbergs and plug
my tour?
Why?
Can I just tell you
something?
If I was actually
the producer of the Goldbergs,
we would end every episode with just cutting to you saying where you're playing.
Yeah.
You think I'm kidding?
I'm not.
I love weird shit like that.
That's the problem with being on a really popular show.
You can't do the weird shit.
I have no idea.
The Curb Your Enthusiasm will come back.
You're in every episode just constantly plugging where you're at.
You just run up.
