Hey, welcome to Jordan, Jesse Go.
I'm Jesse Thorne, known on the show as Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart.
And I am Jordan Morris, nickname Boy Detective.

And if you are a Jordan Jesse Go fan and you've been wanting to recommend the show to friends
but aren't quite sure where to tell them to start, this episode is great.
This is one of our favorite recurring guests who is always hilarious.
And yeah, we think it'll be a fun time for everybody let's get into the episode give a little time for the child within you don't be
afraid to be young and free undo the locks and throw away the keys and take off your shoes and
sex and run you it's jordan jesse go i'm jesse the juice man thorn jordan morris boy detective
getting ready for your uh big role in a Marvel movie?
So have you started juicing?
Yeah, that's exactly what's going on.
I'm on the roids right now, Jordan.
So if there's any rages, it's sort of not my fault.
Who are you playing?
Well, not Mr. Mitzopitalik, because he's friends with Superman.
That's a DC guy.
Yeah.
But I definitely think that when Mr. Mitzapitalik makes his way
into the DC universe, he should be jacked. I know he's like in the comics, you know,
he's like a thirties character and he's like a little, you know, elf guy in a top hat.
But I think like when we see him, we want to see that groin V muscle, you know, that,
you know, that groin, that groin V you know that groin that groin v yeah the one
that points to the dick i know it um you know how our uh you know our friend past guest of this
program kumail nanjiani is a movie star now and he got really jacked yes um i think that's kind
of the end game for carrot top is he's gonna play jacked mr mit. Mitzel. Oh, shit. That is good casting. That is good casting.
Yeah. And I think that like I don't know if you saw this today. This was a big Twitter thing today.
Obviously, it'll be a little old when this comes out. But there Steve Harvey posted a photo in like
an all green suit and people and it has gotten people demanding a Steve Harvey Riddler, which I could not be more in favor
of as someone who watches 10 hours of Family Feud a week. There's nothing I want more than for Steve
Harvey to be the Riddler. So yeah, I mean, I think what this is pointing to is kind of a Batman's
Rogues gallery made up of all comics who are still popular today, but reach the zenith
of their popularity in the late 80s. Yeah, I'm all for it. I mean, where are you imagining Howie
Mandel fitting into this? Oh, I mean, God. Oh, can I suggest something, Jordan? Yeah,
sure. I mean, if you got one. Catwoman? Gotta be Rita Rudner. Oh, yeah. Rudner is Catwoman.
Rita Rudner. Oh, yeah.
Rudner is Catwoman.
Yahoo Sirius is Mr. Freeze.
And of course, Gallagher is Commissioner Gordon.
I know he's not a rogue.
He's one of Batman's friends, but
let's just fill out the whole cast.
Yeah, that's part of Batman's friend
gallery. Yeah.
Who else would you say is his top friends?
You got Robin. Robinin you got um butler
butler al yeah uh sure and then do you think batman has like some friends from high school
that come over sometimes they like here's what here's what batman does with his friends from
high school yeah so there's that like week where everybody goes back home for Thanksgiving, and they get together
at the Irish pub in their town.
Like the day after Thanksgiving or at night once everybody's done eating, he sees his
friends from high school, and they have a couple too many black and tans, and they have
a good cry over what could have been.
Yeah.
Maybe Batman has sex with a girl from high school that had a crush on him, but he was
too closed off to notice.
Right.
Right.
Exactly.
He's never noticed.
I want that for Batman.
I do.
I want that too.
Just a connection.
God, yeah.
Absolutely.
Just even if it's transitory intimacy, I want it for him.
And then you don't spend your life worrying about what could have been.
Right.
I mean, he'll probably still worry about what it would have been like had his parents not
been brutally murdered in front of him.
So, Jesse, this is so funny that we're talking about this today because tonight, this very
night...
Your parents are going to be brutally murdered.
My parents.
Yes, I'm going to see Zorro with them near Crime Alley.
We're going to go home through Crime Alley.
You know, we usually wouldn't go that way, but the Joker's planning a protest.
With the lockdown and everything, it's been hard to find places for your mom to wear her
furs.
Right.
Yeah.
Tonight, I'm going to my 20th high school reunion.
Wow.
Yeah.
Put off a year because of COVID.
But yeah, I i mean just based
on what we're talking about i just hope i get a chance to fuck batman but if not him my second
choice is millionaire bruce wayne right so one of those two ideally we all have a three-way
they have similar similar, I would say.
Wouldn't you say they got similar vibes?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Okay.
One's Batman and one's millionaire Bruce Wayne.
Yeah, they seem like they have similar vibes to me, but maybe it's just me.
That's you.
Maybe it's just me.
I had migraines every day for like three weeks, so I had to go on steroids.
Okay. I had migraines every day for like three weeks. So I had to go on steroids.
Okay.
This is what they do to stop.
Because when you take a lot of migraine medication, it just makes you have more migraines after a while.
And so they put me on roids.
And I don't know if I'm feeling anything from the roids, but I like having that to fall
back on.
Oh, like if something happens, you can just blame the roids?
Like when Jose Canseco was, I mean, I know I've mentioned this a number of times because
it's the most important thing that happened in my entire childhood.
But when Jose Canseco got pulled over going like 115 miles an hour in his Porsche, and
he said that it was because it was knocking and pinging.
So he wanted to see
what would happen if he put jet fuel in it. You know, it's just now, oh yeah, it's the roids.
You know, it's just roiding. There you go. You know, I just want to make some choices like that.
Well, this is only a five day course of steroids, six day course of steroids. So
I only, I already did one, one and a half days of steroids. So I
only have like three days to make bad decisions and blame it on the roids. And I haven't even,
I don't even have ideas for what to do. Dude, you should throw out a box without
cutting it up first. Man. And then go, oh, the fucking roids. I just forgot to cut up this box.
Oh God. That would be, that would be truly like, if you put a list of bad decisions I could
make for my life right now, and one of them was getting on the freeway, accidentally strike a
woman pushing a baby stroller, knock her onto the freeway, drive away without saying anything. I think not cutting
up a box before I put it in the recycling bin, given the number of people who live in my house
and the number of boxes we have would be more catastrophic for me. I would have to deal with
the emotional ramifications for the rest of my life with not knowing what happened
to that woman and the baby that I pushed onto the freeway. Yeah. Or I know what you did last
summer situation where she comes back and hooks you. Yeah. Sorry, spoilers. Spoilers for that
movie that came out when I was 14. But I think that dealing with the like most of my emotional energy as a
father of three uh who orders everything via online shopping is dedicated towards how am i
gonna get all these fucking boxes into this recycling bin that's why you gotta cram them
in their hole while you're juicing i'm sitting here at my desk recording jordan jesse go i have
this box opening device at the ready.
Nice.
This is, it's both a box opening device and a hooking device, by the way.
Perfect for hooking.
If you know what someone did last summer.
Oh man.
You could really get some revenge on some teens.
But this is the best of now.
We're just getting into serious things about opening, cutting down boxes. We'll introduce our guest momentarily. This is this is the most amazing tool.
Yeah. Sorry, Sarah, you're actually bumped. on your popular internet websites. And it's got like a hook, a pointy plastic hook.
And then on the other side with a blade inside it
so you can drag it.
But then it's got this roundy part for poking.
God, I love opening boxes.
Man, that could go right into Skeet Ulrich's eye.
Ah, yeah.
I think he was in I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Yeah, I don't really know who he is.
Maybe I'm confusing it with Scream.
He's an actor who has a distinctive name.
Beyond that, I have nothing.
Maybe Jamie Kennedy was in it.
Who knows?
That's a great guess.
Yeah.
Our guest on the program is a spookthusiast.
She's a comedy writer.
She's the co-author of the bestselling graphic novel
Bubble. She's a good friend of ours for many years, the great Sarah Morgan. Joining us from
across the pond. Hi, Sarah. How are you? Hi. Ahoy, hoy, everyone. I'm all right.
I appreciate you displaying for the podcast audiences a copy of Bubble in the background.
Oh, I nearly had it then. Hang on. Zoom shot.
There you go.
There you go.
The bubble is crooked and Sarah is pretending like she's holding it up.
I think she's doing a head crusher from Kids in the Hall.
Yeah, there you go.
Crushing your face.
Crushing your head.
There you go.
Yeah.
I've got quite a few copies.
No one wanted one.
Sarah had a huge box of these things. Can't give them away to British people. They're not interested.
Sarah, do you have any ideas about, uh, mistakes I could make while I'm juiced?
Oh, um, have you, what about having very, very small, hard, tiny testicles?
I'd love to have a little way ahead way ahead of you Two steps ahead of you
I mean just then you can blame it on the roids
Blame it on the juice baby
I love that
That was a solid Lizzo right
Very good Lizzo
You've got a great Lizzo
Thanks friends
Sarah do you
Okay two questions
One was Skeet Ulrich in i know what you did last summer
as a horror fan i think you'll be able to i am i was yeah i oh god skeet hang on i can type it in
uh i have the device right in front of me skeet all right looks like no no i think he's in scream
scream he's a riverdale parent now i haven't seen any of those
i haven't even seen one of them apparently there's an episode of riverdale where they do uh hedwig
and the angry inch i'm now so confused as to what this program for children might be that i'm gonna
have to it's like five seasons in i'm like okay i think i saw a little thing and i basically keep
up with riverdale because like
there's a section of twitter that tweets exclusively about riverdale sure and they'll
kind of make their way into my feed sometimes you want them to be your friends talking about
dave shumka yeah jordan those kids will like you for who you are stop trying to impress them
but i just want to pretend like I watch Riverdale.
So the people, the teen, who are they?
Who watches it?
Anyway, so, and I guess like Sabrina the Teenage Witch is now in Riverdale. So with your reveal that they can also do Hedwig and the Angry Inch, I think Riverdale is just whatever.
Yeah.
Yeah, I suspect so.
whatever yeah yeah i suspect so i think there's probably a showrunner who just knows that the beautiful people will move around on the screen in pleasing shapes and colors and then then
then he just puts things he likes on them they're like listen we've been doing this for 10 seasons
as long as jughead takes his shirt off yeah he's like i got the rights to the characters from Omega Man. Let's fold them in.
Chuck Heston's still alive.
A sexy version of the F Troop gang is going to join.
I got a couple Animaniacs, not the main ones.
We have Chicken Boo and Slappy Squirrel.
Got some of the Heathcliff gang.
Not Heathcliff.
We just have some fish bones that we pulled out of his mouth.
That's the one thing about Heathcliff.
You got the and company
from Heathcliff and Company.
Right, yes.
Got Denver the dinosaur skateboard.
We have the company.
Sarah, as a noted horror fan,
you have a podcast about horror.
That sounded like so different what you were saying. As a noted horror fan you have a podcast like so different what you're saying so
as a noted horror fan yeah horror fan i'm sorry yes um what you what are you doing to commemorate
the spookiest time of year oh yeah it's not it's not quite come home goth christmas this year
in the uk i don't think'm, I'm getting all these kind
of, you know, there's been no spooktaculars once again. Um, I'm, uh, I, I, I've been observing
what's going on in LA and it sounds like things are back sort of slowly coming back to normal.
There's a universal Halloween horror nights and things like that, that no, everyone's doing faces
like, no, I think this year they're not allowed to come near you.
They have to social distance from you at horror nights and not scary environments.
Shouting you from two meters away.
I mean, yes, I genuinely think, isn't that what's going on, Jordan?
You follow these things closer than I.
Yeah.
So, you know, like the big West Hollywood Halloween parade is not happening happening this year so that's you know that's that's a bummer fun thing
that uh you know it's not reasonable to have people are gonna have to find new excuses to
have sex it's gonna be tough it's gonna be tough but i think dressed as a smurf or something
anybody comes up with a good one, let me know. If so,
but yes,
so I think like
the theme park spooktaculars
are back in kind of
an altered form
and basically
what happens is that
the zombies and ghouls,
you know,
can't jump out.
They can't get close to you,
but like while you're walking,
they let you know
that their buddy
is out in the parking lot
keying your car.
They go, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.
Oh, fuck!
It's a fucking loner!
The real monster is actually my aunt on Facebook who thinks COVID is a lie.
Yeah, right.
They just tell you about the horrors of this historical moment.
It's actually trickle down capitalism. Oh god.
How would you like to buy a key ring
of me telling you that? Oh, it's a wolfman!
Oh, Joe Manchin!
People are getting their news from
Joe Rogan!
Musical guest
in Florence and the Machine!
My spooky voice is similar to my SNL announcer voice. No, I'm trying to, I think the one thing I feel like I should do for Halloween is, is
change my Twitter handle to something spooky, but I'm not feeling the base. It seems like
I don't really like being on Twitter and I know it's a very, this is an unusual opinion that no one's ever had before.
But I think Twitter is quite bad for you and not a good way for discourse, for people to discourse.
But I also kind of need to use it for work.
And also people sometimes send pictures of like pets reading Bubble.
So that's very important.
I collate all the pictures of pets, people making, sort of forcing their pets to read Bubble. I have a little folder of those pictures that I, so I must collate all the pictures of pets people making sort of forcing their pets to read bubble i have a little folder of those pictures that i uh um so i must collate those
but i don't really but i think i the way to sort of avoid getting sucked into the sort of more
horrible side of twitter would be if i've got like such a stupid spooky halloween name that
even like spam bots won't want to get into sort of gender critical chats with me.
Just fuck off.
I'm called like spooky,
spooky,
you know,
monster mash 69 or something.
Anyway.
So if anyone has any,
any suggestions,
I've run the gamut of spooky names.
I think cause Sarah,
Sarah L.
Morgan is my Twitter handle.
So there's scarer there's i did the
simpsons thing of her scary hell morgan um i'm open to thoughts gang yeah no let's let's see if
we can if we can gang this i just want to point out before we move too far away brian i think
monster mash 69 pretty solid name for the episode. Anyway.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
So you've done.
Can I also, sorry.
Can I also.
Pretty solid name for a John Cougar Mellencamp album.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
I was working in the lab.
So what,
so you've done Sarah Hellmore.
Yeah.
Like James Hellbrooks.
I've gone,
I've done this sort of Simpsons treehouse of horror versions of my name,
I think.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Scara.
You've done Scara.
Okay.
Morgan.
More,
more Rose.
Something.
I always, you know, I always, you know,
there was a day where I had some hope that I might one day write for The Simpsons.
That will never happen.
But I think that, you know, like,
I was always planning for my Halloween name.
I was always saying, like, Jordan Morose.
Oh, that's nice.
That's nice.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
So, I mean, I don't know if that fits in with, maybe not quite.
It's maybe a little bit of a.
I've had spooky organ music before.
That was pretty solid.
What about Sarah Morgan's monster?
Oh, yeah.
What about actually it's.
Actually, the real monster is Sarah Morgan.
They use it very fast.
Yeah, sure.
Okay.
That'll work.
Can I let you guys know about a real scare that I had recently?
Yeah, I'd love to.
I mean, keep it light, but...
Oof, I mean...
Oh, don't.
Did you realize your life was half over?
What?
Hold on.
39, 40... Oh, my God! Oh, fuck! you realize your life was half over what hold on 39 45 oh my god oh fuck
time to get a corvette um and this is you know and this is something like for you guys but also
you know i think i think this is something i've wanted to do with the audience for a while because
like you know i like trust them and i like you know and i know that
it's a two-way street you know trust and and um you know i think something might come out about me
um very soon i just kind of wanted to get in front of this and like let you guys know and i just you
know jesse justin sir you're both close friends of mine. Our reputations are
tied together. So if this is going to be,
if you're going to become
the topic of the day
on Twitter, I need to know now.
Right, yeah. And I mean, hopefully
just when this comes out, something is happening
on Riverdale that will influence it.
Yeah.
Or Steve Harvey is wearing polka dots
now. Look, you can't eclipse Lady Pinhead again.
Oh, yeah.
Lady Pinhead Day was the best day on Twitter.
That was a lot of fun.
Jesse, did you know there's going to be a Lady Pinhead?
You know, I know more today than I have ever known in my life about Pinhead because my daughter has been telling me stuff about Pinhead.
Oh.
She has not seen.
In fact, she couldn't remember what Pinhead's movie was called.
Right.
But she's really into the Garbage Pail Kid parody of Pinhead.
Oh.
Where there's like a pizza cutter in the head and stuff.
That's funny.
So she learned a lot about Pinhead through that venue.
It's always nice to like just capture your children's passions and use them for learning.
And is she keeping up with Pinhead reboot casting news?
Yeah.
So who's Lady Pinhead now?
What's the name of the actress?
Let me find it.
The character is traditionally being played by a man in the three films uh oh sorry jamie clayton uh is the actor who's playing uh pinhead in the film
in in the in the new reboot uh by hulu um and it's it's genuinely made people cross on twitter
in a way that is just... No! No! Really?
Someone's childhood has been ruined by that.
And it makes me...
Genuinely not my pinhead.
Woke pinhead.
Right. Listen, I just want
my daughter to be able to see a
pinhead who looks like her.
I want her to see herself in pinhead.
What's my son going to do for strong pinhead role models in the future?
You're ruining my pin childhood.
Yeah, now that he doesn't have Star Wars.
Yeah, can't have James Bond anymore.
Right.
Guy, I was trying to do a fake thing where I was worried about, listen, something happened.
I'm sorry, Jordan. I crashed
your very important news that you need to start apologizing for stuff. That's okay.
Go back into the voice. Imagine you're opening a notes app and you're going to write an apology
and then put that up on Instagram. Okay. I'm braced. I'm ready. Okay. I'm with you, buddy.
That's how it's done. I was, so, you know, I don't how it's done. I don't typically go into my spam folder on my email.
I'm assuming that whatever spam filter is kind of taking care of everything.
But I was doing a job recently where we were collaborating on OneNote.
And sometimes you need a OneNote password and it sends it to your spam.
Blah, blah, blah.
I don't need to explain to you guys how OneNote works.
I actually have, in my job, we have a few few notes but it's not a big deal it's just an
important job so anyway i saw a spam mail that caught my eye um and i'm like well maybe i should
open this thing um so i did and what i saw was pretty troubling. And I think I just, just to let you guys know, um, I'm just going to read this verbatim.
The title is Jordan Morris.
Oh, wow.
Hold on.
I mean, that's your name.
So Jordan, that's your actual name.
So this is actually personally addressed to you.
I know.
This isn't some miscellaneous mass thing.
This is a one-to-one communication.
So yeah, this is from Leo Post.
I feel like Leo wouldn't have emailed you directly if this wasn't important.
No, I know.
And he put my name, sort of not only emailed to my email, but put my name as the subject line.
Yeah.
Shit.
Well, I mean, what if your assistant is going through the emails and they're not sure to whom to direct it?
Exactly.
So here we go.
Leo Post, by the way, is Emily Post's husband.
He's also very polite.
So here's how it starts.
Hola, Jordan.
Wait a minute.
Is this Leo Post or is this the guy that fixed my ukulele?
Hola, Jordan. I do see you really love Onanism.
I mean, there's no question. If there's one Onan-like man in this recording, it's my friend Jordan Morris.
That's true.
Self-abuse is your middle name jordan yeah
so i don't know if i know you're a big horror fan i don't know if you
but was a biblical character go hand in hand no pun intended yes
uh onan was a biblical character known for spilling his seed. Yeah.
I Googled Oh, Nan just now just to help you out, Sarah.
Yeah.
And I genuinely thought it was Thor's dad for a minute.
I didn't.
Oh, yeah.
Didn't Anthony Hopkins play Oh, Nan?
There is a line of Oh, Nan RV generators.
That's not what we're talking about.
But there's a section that says people also ask, and I clicked on what did Onan do?
When Onan had sex with Tamar, he withdrew before he ejaculated and spilled his seed on the ground since any child born would not legally be considered his heir.
The next statement in the Bible says that Onan did evil and that God slew him.
Onan, the original MOP, master of pullout.
Do people say that?
That's something that in seventh grade sex ed,
the woman who came from Planned Parenthood said,
some people call themselves.
It doesn't matter if you think you're an M.O.P. master of pullout.
You still have to wear a condom to be set.
And I was like, what?
I don't think people say that.
I'm 12.
She's heard that before.
Like someone said that to her in person.
Yeah.
Great Metallica album.
Master. Master. before like someone said that to her in person yeah great metallic album master i spill my seed upon the ground hola jordan i do see you really love onanism oh you such a cunty pervert.
Now that's just British stuff.
Yeah, I mean, he's just being friendly.
I'm not going to bore the ass off you with philosophy,
and I'll proceed to the point.
Thank you.
I have infected your device with my rogue application, which grants me overall control.
You'd better shut off or cover up your webcam on your device when doing this kind of things.
Possible one can access a film a bit of you.
And not only that, during your last playing with yourself, I have recorded a video without your participation.
Now my intention is to distribute it to your family and upload it to the web.
My intention is to participate next time.
Except for the chance to film a video utilizing your camera,
I have access to your electronic mail and social networking sites contacts.
Oh, this is all making sense now.
I wondered what that video was.
Yeah. If you get a quick time from me, do not open it. It was from Leo Post, but it's... What I found interesting was that he was able to manipulate,
Mr. Post was able to... Leo Post.
Leo Post. Was able to manipulate your webcam such that I could see where upon your seed spilled.
Right.
Otherwise, it's difficult to make an evaluation.
Why were you near all that stony ground?
That's LA for you, I guess.
I'd love to jack off in Holland.
Newfoundland is my number one place to climb.
I cannot come.
Very dusty LA this time of year.
Very dusty.
Cannot come unless there's a windmill above me.
My wife knows to prepare for my orgasm when I start lifting my feet up and going,
ooh, ow, ow, ooh, ooh.
When you put on some Crocs.
Train's coming into the station, man.
Get my C-Crocs and you shout at us.
I have access to your electronic mail
and social networking sites contacts.
I think all of them are going to be shocked by your hobby.
Nah, not all of us.
Yeah, who?
Which who?
No, really?
Nah, not shocked.
That guy?
Does he also like watching Simpsons DVD commentaries?
Yes.
I have filmed video of you watching YouTube video on Dark Souls lore.
Why you waste so much time with this?
I just like item-based world building.
Anyway.
You, my dear pervert, should to transfer a compensation for keeping me quiet.
Then I'll destroy all dirt on you.
Even CD-Rs of Japanese fighting games from 2002.
I just want to play Last Blade II on Dreamcast.
I understand.
Last Blade I was awesome.
Got to see what the sequel's all about.
They really ramped it up with II.
It's the good Last Blade game.
You are given 48 hours
to transfer my remuneration.
As soon as you read this message,
I will receive notification.
Failing this,
if you decide to play games with me
and neglect me within 19 six hours,
I will present your shameful clip
to all your comrades
and closest people
and put it on the net.
This is trouble.
What are you going to do when the comrades find out?
The comrades and the net, you know?
Sandy Bullock's coming after you, buddy.
Boy, that's the last thing I need.
If I do not receive my...
Sandy Bullock's in stony ground.
I might have to take advantage of the chance earlier
and await my award for unlocking,
but the matter is that there is not always possible to unblock the device remotely even after receiving award
but i'll think over this possibility if i do not receive my money do not try and get in touch with
me this mail is hacked and soon the access to it will be denied so i was really worried i mean we
joke but that's intense yeah i was really worried so i just
responded back with hi leo what's onanism
nothing and then nothing he's a ghost leo's a ghost so this really is a spooky halloween tale
yeah yeah i had him pegged for a wolfman the whole time.
You had him pegged? Yeah.
Yeah, that's another video I made.
Pegged as a werewolf is something I might have looked up in my time.
Why not?
Take a look.
A lot of Chuck Tingle book I might have bought in a quiet moment.
See what Benicio Del Toro did
before he was famous.
Listen, a lot of shit goes down at monster mash 69 this is this i this is a a a popular spam email going around these days kind of threatening you in this kind of verbose way about having filmed you
masturbating um has has anybody else received one of these no no one in the world has received this
i don't think i don't think an email has come through my, has slipped through my spam filter in many years.
I think I should be looking at my spam filter once in a while.
I'm probably getting important messages there.
Just run yourself a bath, get a hand mirror.
Check out the old spam filter.
Light some candles.
I'm checking here.
It's primarily just notifications from LinkedIn.
But I do get a lot of,
I do get a lot for 15-ish years.
I have been on the email list. So I work very hard to keep my work email off of
publicity email lists because otherwise it would just take over my entire inbox.
And so for many years, we had a special email address for press releases and I had an auto
reply that said, please send press releases
here or I will mark you spam and put you on the dead list forever. But I think maybe even since
we lived in Santa Cruz, Jordan, I have been getting press releases for a record label called
Horror, Pain, Gore Death. Okay. I'm listening. And when you get an email, like I just saw this one,
it says,
Horror Pain Gore Death Productions have premiered the new video
from Extreme Death Metal Act, Necronemesis,
featuring Rick Ross of Death Massacre.
And like, I just feel like...
The Hampshire Death Massacres.
I don't want to stop that from coming to me.
Yeah, no, I mean, if you want to know.
It's not of use to me, but...
I think it will be someday.
You will have...
This is one of those things.
You now, you're like,
well, why am I getting these emails?
I've been getting these emails for, you know,
10 years or however long.
There's going to be a time
where you need to book a death metal band for something.
Yeah.
And this is going to be an invaluable resource. I don't know what it is. I mean, maybe like...
I mean, if your daughter is getting into pinhead, it's only a matter of time before she's into
death metal and she's probably going to have a birthday coming up.
Yeah. That's true.
And it's going to need a little entertainment.
Yep. And she's going to want to hear her favorite song from this album here, They Live in the Attic.
Her favorite song being track one, Cranial Disfigurement, then in parentheses, By Fist.
Sarah, can I back up to your remark about getting the hand mirror?
Sure.
In that scenario, is the spam filter the taint?
I mean, I was thinking more vaginally than that,
but I mean, we can give this five minutes in the room if you want.
We can bounce this around.
Really see, you know.
Yeah.
I think we got to work through, kind of got to work through the consequences of this our
body ourselves analogy.
Yeah.
To make this really count.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, I mean, what is the best part of the, you know, erotic personage to be the spam
filter, I guess?
Would you open things up and take a
look at the prostate maybe it's the butthole yeah maybe that's the spam filter when you say
butthole you mean turd cutter no never say such a thing i've never looked at my parts with a hand mirror, but I admire those who have.
You know, like I like the idea of someone who reads one of those books that the woman brings you from Planned Parenthood in seventh grade or that you get from the friendly, well-lit sex store. And then, but like the 70s one, not
the our bodies ourselves-ish one, not necessarily a newer one. It just gets into it. Just goes down
there and takes a look at things. I support that. Let's get to know our bodies.
To the American ones,
because I've discovered this fairly recently,
and this isn't a bit,
this isn't meant to be,
it's just something that's been plaguing me
is trying to find a sort of
our bodies educational book for my daughter
and finding that the clitoris
is excluded from these books.
And I found that mind blowing. I thought,
I just kind of assumed, maybe the seventies books they're not in, but even the modern ones,
it's sort of considered to be this like, no, we don't tell them about that for
a long, until they're much older. Is it excluded or can they just not find it?
Well, I feel like I need some kind of like tonight show drum roll.
Listen, we would love to include this thing on the wrong page.
If you know what I mean?
Can I,
as long?
Yeah,
no,
I think it's,
it's shocking to me.
And I wondered if the States,
which have sort of famously slightly more prudish than the UK are about,
is that something that comes up in those anatomy?
I have to say,
um,
I,
as long as we're not being funny,
I have a very sincere recommendation on this topic.
I'm sure there are some parents out there who want to know how to talk to their kids
about their bodies.
But for like middle grades kids, for like kids who are maybe below middle school, you
know, seven to 11 kind of kids, there's a really great book called Sex is a Funny Word
by Corey Silverberg.
I was literally just about to say that.
That's the one book I found.
It is such a great, it is such a great book, like totally inclusive,
totally age appropriate,
but like actually contains a lot of really good information.
And that person also wrote a picture book
called What Makes a Baby that like,
just a total home run in our house.
Like totally, like no obfuscation,
but also nothing um nothing too
explicit and uh like very inclusive of ways that babies can become part of families both of those
books really great cory silverberg what a winner uh not funny at all uh we laugh and we learn i think that's it but yeah everybody's getting a hand
mirror when they turn 14 turn 14 i give them a hand mirror and say take a look at that turd cutter
take a look at that spam filter yeah see if there's any publicity emails down there filter
that spam baby cop a squat kid we got something to talk about um the one i got as a kid had uh
did not have any actual like photos in it but it had cartoon characters who looked like they were
from do you remember that like cartoon from the 70s the point yeah sure with like a bunch of harry
nelson songs yeah they all looked like Harry Nilsson.
That's not too bad.
They all did look, yeah, yeah.
He's wearing that dirty bathrobe from Nilsson Schmilson.
Right.
So that's the one I got
and don't feel like I was actually informed by it.
I think that the quality of those drawings upset me.
My parents were good about not making me feel ashamed about
sexual stuff. And when I got my first serious girlfriend, um, not my wife, but a pre a preceding
girlfriend, um, and we were doing stuff together. Um, my mom got me the good vibrations guide to sex, good vibrations being the local to my
neighborhood, um, like lesbian don't sex toy store. And, um, I remember being so disappointed
in it because it was a very big book, just like a 300 page book. And it had no pornography at all in it. Just zero pornography. I remember being so
mad that none of it was pornographic in any way. It was all like safety related advice for acts I
would definitely not be participating in for another 10 or 15 years.
Is it like dental dams?
Yeah. It was basically 300 pages of dental dams.
If you can't find a dental dam, use non, it was basically 300 pages of dental dams.
We use non-microwavable cling film.
I think that dental dams speak to the sexual safety of the millennial generation.
I think almost all of our sex ed, for those of us who grew up in more liberated places,
it was almost exclusively dental dam related information.
Look, if you're out there
and you're using dental dams, let us know. How's it work on that turd cutter? 206-984-4FUN.
How you damming?
Yeah.
Has dam technology changed? Colors, flavors, textures, materials.
Yeah. You know what I did learn about that, about the dental dam situation? You know,
you mentioned, Sarah, that they're always talking about, well, in a pinch, saran wrap.
Oh yeah. As you call it. Yeah.
Did you know that saran wrap is porous? Stretch, plastic stretch film is porous.
And so when you, this is, we're getting right into hints from Heloise straight out of the
hand mirror here. We're really bouncing all over everywhere. Sorry,
guys. It's just the roids. But... Oh my God, he's cutting up a box. Run.
But cling film, because it stretches, it has like holes that grow when it stretches. That's
how it stretches. And so that's why like if you want to wrap up something to put in the freezer,
but you don't want it to dry out, like you have a, you know, like you're, you're saving a steak for later or something.
You wrap it in cling film so that it's, so that water won't be extracted from it, from, uh, from
the freezer.
Cause the, uh, the freezer is a desiccant.
And what if you want to like eat the steak's pussy?
Yeah.
I mean, then you just go to town.
I mean, you gotta put a little, you gotta, you gotta take like a hobby knife and give
it a little down the middle.
So there's a way to get some purchase.
Oh, you have to make a pussy.
Yeah.
Uh, and it's be on the topic of you don't have to make jordan you don't have to make a clitoris you can just attach a raisin with some peanut butter
it's gonna call it ants on a log so there's a very cheap out here by just having me say the
word aluminium so oh there you go. Excellent.
Well done.
Thank you.
Give the people what they want when they hear that word.
What's an elevator called over there?
Say it.
Your mom.
Oh, nice.
And on the topic of like, you know, sexual shame or sexual comfort and, you know, kind of where we are with that as a culture.
When I got that spam email about my onanism,
I feel like I was kind of forced to imagine a scenario where that's real and there's some sort of weird...
Yeah, I don't know how they would distribute it,
but if for for some you know
my email contacts all got a quick time of me jerking it i was kind of like forced to like
think about like okay what would what would that be like if that were true and i'm like would that
how would i feel and i and i mean maybe it just kind of speaks to like where we are,
you know,
in regards to masturbation as a society. But I was kind of like,
eh,
whatever.
Like,
I mean,
I do have Charlie Brooker's email somewhere.
We could see this.
Just specifically you wanking.
Yeah.
Charlie,
I've got a fucking,
it's a really good one no think about it
for a second what if yeah everyone in the world got an email of jordan morris wanking no it has
to be jordan morris who's that that's who mr post is interested in watching
oh yeah i wonder in this scenario is mr did mr post himself derive some some excitement from the video of me
cranking it yeah he didn't get involved no we know that he called you a cunty pervert
oh you cunty pervert but that could be a term of endearment we don't know where he's from
great sufjan stevens Yeah, really good one.
Well, let's take a break, guys.
We've got phone calls to take.
We've got all kinds of stuff to do.
We'll be back in just a second on Jordan, Jesse, go.
It's Jordan, Jesse, go. I'm Jesse Thorne, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. It's Jordan, Jesse Goh.
I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart.
Jordan Morris, boy detective.
Now, Jordan, every single goddamn episode of this show is brought to you by the beautiful people who are members of MaximumFun.org.
And when I say you, I'm talking about you, the beautiful people who are members of MaximumFun.org.
Thank you very much.
Every single one of you.
We love you. We're also supported this week by the folks at Smalls.
Protein-packed meals your feline friends will love.
Yeah, here's what Smalls is, Jesse.
It's fresh human-grade food for cats delivered right to your doorstep.
Yes, that's right, Jordan.
Human-grade.
Yeah.
This meat is just as good
as the flesh of man. I think it means, Jesse, that it's good enough for a human to eat. So,
you know, if it's good enough for a South American soccer team stranded in the Andes,
it's good enough for your cat. The flesh of man from Smalls. It's not.
Smalls is not.
It's equivalent.
It's not human meat.
It's as good as.
It's as good as something a human would eat.
And hey, it's delivered right to your doorstep.
Jesse, you know this.
All cats are obligate carnivores.
They need fresh protein packed meals.
God damn it.
They need them.
I had them pegged.
I had them pegged as a different kind of carnivore.
Should have had a gag going into this flobbligate carnivore, but go ahead.
No, that was good.
Thank you.
Conventional cat food. I pitched it at the Oscars, but fucking Bruce Valanche wouldn't put it on air.
Yeah.
It's just, I mean, he's he's you know he's just worried he's worried that he said it wasn't in whoopi's voice
uh so listen a lot of cat food that you get at the supermarket it's made using low quality
cheap meat byproducts grains and starches and coated in artificial flavors yuck you don't want that going into your cat
smalls they've enlisted cat nutritionists to help complete balanced recipes for all life stages
and hey because the cat's getting a better quality meal that litter box is going to smell a whole lot better. If you know what I mean.
You got a cat. Would you give your cat this Smalls food, Jordan?
Jesse, I've given this cat Smalls and she loves it. And she's a picky eater. I genuinely have a
hard time switching my cat's food. Like I've had a couple instances where her food has gotten
discontinued and I've had to switch and it's been a really like picky, weird ordeal and I've been worried about her. But Jesse, I tried a little bit of the Smalls
and she loves it. So I would guess that your cat will probably love it too. And it's going to lead
to a nicer smelling litter box, nicer smelling kitty breath so you can give them lots more kisses.
so you can give them lots more kisses.

Netflix erotic thriller starring either Dylan McDermott or Dormant Mulrooney. I don't know
which. I am not doing a bit. I genuinely don't remember which one it was.
Was it produced by Netflix?
Or was it just on Netflix?
Does Netflix have a whole lane of money that's just going to Dermot Mulroney and Delmet Mulroney?
Yeah, I mean, I think they have a whole financial wing

Yeah, I know.
No, we wanted to have you on, Sarah, because this is a block party episode.
And we needed a home run hitter.
It's Sarah Morgan season, baby.
It's Sarah season.
Sarah foul last week.
Want to smash a line drive?
Sarah Morgan's your best bet for a fast ball to comedy hilarity.
Don't know what those words mean.
We know these are like, these are kind of special episodes.
Oh, bless. You know, I was, yeah, I was, I was, I could, I actually momentarily blanked on what
my real JJ Goh nickname was, but I've remembered it now. What is it? It was the European eel
smuggler. Yeah. Cause I smuggled you some eels once, Jesse. Sarah once smuggled us some eels for
people who are listening because it's the block party. That's a real thing that really happened.
And they were foul, which is truly disgusting. Yeah.
When something momentous happens to you, we ask you to give us a call at 206-984-4FUN,
momentous happens to you, we ask you to give us a call at 206-984-4FUN or send us a voice memo at jjgoe at maximumfun.org for our segment Momentous Occasions. Now our producer, Brian
Sonny D. Fernandez has listened to your Momentous Occasions and has chosen this one to share with
you, the world. Press play, Brian. Hey y'all, it's Brian. And forgive me, I can't remember the name of this segment.
I know there's so many, but I was on Reddit and feeling kind of horny, so I typed in Gone Wild,
and I noticed that there was a subreddit called Gone Wilder, and I thought this sounds interesting.
This sounds interesting.
So I clicked on it, clicked on the Not Safe for Work thing,
and it is all just pictures and names of Gene Wilder.
So that's it.
Thank you.
Yeah.
And check out some of these dank memes.
And that subreddit confused me because I like to crank it to clips from the Ryan Reynolds movie Van Wilder.
Party liaison.
Wow.
Here goes Gene Wilder in a bath.
Am I going to get an email from Leo Post?
Yeah, look out.
You're going to get posted.
Oh, no.
I saw you looking at Don Wilder.
Oh, you cunty pervert.
Cunty pervert.
Looking at memes of Gene Wilder.
Is it like if you get me to say that word, it's okay to then say it for the rest of the episode?
I'm just checking because I'm not going to be caught in the British slash a woman trap again.
There's no question. It's a, no question. It's dicey territory. Um, when we also have this other
segment on the show, Sarah, um, I know you probably know about this, but of course we on Jordan,
Jesse go are always coming
up with new ideas for segments. We don't just do that same one momentous occasion segment that we
thought of 20 years ago. We also do lots of new segments. We just often, we do make so many that
we forget which one we're doing or whatever. So we have people just call in and let us know at
the top, what segment they're calling in for of the many that we've definitely thought of ourselves not just them calling in something
funny they thought of and then putting a name on it afterwards um that's what's happening uh
no it's just that we have a lot of great ideas it's not just people calling in with almost
anything that they can think of and then saying it's for a segment called something or other.
That's not what's happening.
We're thinking of original ideas, copyright us, 2021.
Jordan, Jesse, go productions.
In perpetuity.
Norwalk, California.
Could you explain the bit more, just a tiny bit more?
Brian, you want to press play?
Okay.
Hey, Jordan.
Hey, Jesse.
Hey, soccer superstar Lionel Messi.
This is Mike calling in from D.C. with a signature segment.
For the signature segment, what was thrown at me today,
my answer would be a bunch of Bibles.
There was a protest in D.C. this morning.
A bunch of truckers driving through D.C. with their big truck,
honking their horns, running red lights, not letting pedestrians cross.
So I was riding through the mall, and some pedestrians were trying to cross,
and the trucks wouldn't let them.
So I got out there, blocked the trucks so the pedestrians could go.
This guy lays into his horn on me because he didn't like me blocking him.
And I point to the big Jesus mural behind him on his truck and said,
you know, Jesus didn't say this.
Jesus said, love all people or something like that.
And his response was to throw a bunch of Bibles at me.
I'm Jewish, so I threw them right back at him.
But again, I don't know what exactly Jesus said,
but I don't think Jesus said block pedestrians in a crosswalk.
So love you guys.
Have a good one.
Bye-bye.
You know, again, when we listen to these calls,
you know, one detail inevitably sticks out.
Yeah.
And I think there's one here that is important.
I mean, obviously, this is an insane situation.
But I can't stop thinking about how he said it was a bunch of Bibles.
it was a bunch of bibles who how into the bible do you have to be to where you travel with not just i mean i understand like oh the bible's important to me so i always have one you know
while i'm traveling or in my luggage or you know in my big rig yeah how why do you have a bunch
maybe is the different translations maybe different translations maybe you have a bunch? Maybe is the truck hauling Bibles?
Maybe different translations.
Maybe you got a new international in there.
The other ones.
Maybe you got like a teen Bible for our new age.
Good news.
A raging 90s Bible.
Yeah, I guess so.
I guess maybe this guy's.
A Gideon Bible.
A Gutenberg Bible.
Flaming hot Bible by Cheetos.
Yeah.
Cashew nuts.
Peanuts.
I was going to do the peanuts bit from Best in Show.
Harlan Pepper, you stopped naming nuts.
Remember that?
Thank you.
Thank you for helping me out there.
You know, like when a ninja, like instead of just throwing one ninja star, like holds like a handful of ninja stars and is able to kind of like fling them out to hit multiple targets?
Yeah.
I mean, that's what happened with the Bible.
With Bibles tend to be pretty unwieldy. Yeah. Like, it's not the first thing I would toss.
If I was looking around my truck, it's not, and not just for thematic reasons, but just
because it seems like there would be something easier to throw in there.
Yeah, right?
Like Burger King coupons?
Yeah, like Burger King coupons.
Something you could really do some fucking damage with.
How about some kids club toys?
Whatever you got most recently from the burger king kids club like a fucking figurine of iq he's my jesus that's who i pray to
sir i imagine you guys didn't have the burger king kids club over there right oh um i think
we did actually i mean they might have been different i do remember and
this the there was uh one of them was a wheelchair user and they were called wheels or tires yeah it
was that's all i remember of the burger king cakes i just think yeah was there more to them than that
it wasn't just that presumably the most distinct thing
about the Burger King
I remember when they
made the Burger King hot
that was different
wasn't it
when the guy who
the guy who played
the Burger King
then they
recast him as a sexy man
that was weird
oh maybe we didn't
get that
we still have the
we still have the
like kind of
upsetting
you know kind of
the masked head we still have the kind of upsetting mascot.
We have not gotten the fuckable Burger King.
Although, I mean, maybe you could argue that to some, the mascot is fuckable.
Yeah.
Okay, I'm now Googling Burger King sexy man British and seeing what happens.
Yeah.
Leo Post just emailed me again.
This is just clips of Willy Wonka.
The Burger King Kids Club really is an example of what people thought diversity was in 1990.
Sure.
There's two girls out of six because there's the girl who likes sports, Boomer.
Yeah.
Okay, Boomer.
Okay, Kids Club.
There's one disabled person there's one dog jaws has a
jaws has a uh flat top you know they're actually they did i mean obviously like you know we kind
of described this and it is a little bit like retrograde it is definitely from another time but
um they are bringing them back and they do know they no longer have the wheelchair user,
but in his place, Lady Pinhead.
Oh.
Well, now they're double ruining my childhood, Jordan.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge is going to punch it up as well.
Yeah.
That's who you're going to get.
Yeah.
That's who you're going to get.
She's going to punch up the kids club.
Right.
Just sort of bring a bit of kind of reality, a bit kind of you know not take it too seriously they're gonna break the
fourth wall and talk to the camera about fries we'll be back in just a second on jordan jesse go

From the internationally acclaimed creators of Who Shot Ya? comes the movie podcast Maximum Film,
starring producer and film festival programmer Drea Clark as a woman bound by passion.
I saw this eight months ago on the festival circuit and I loved it.
Film critic Alonzo Duralde as a man corrupted by greed.
Why watch one Hallmark Christmas movie when I can watch seven?
And comedian Ify Wadiwe as a man protecting a love that society simply
won't accept. I think
Pacific Rim is a perfect movie. And if you
can't accept that, then I want you out of my
life! From the makers of the movie podcast
Who Shot Ya? comes Maximum Film.

but it was based off a podcast that we both worked on,
but also...

lots of other people contributed.
We had Ryan Perez
in there. We had a Janine Burrito
in there. A Jane
Borden, Riley Silverman,

Oh yeah, Nick
Weiger, our buddy Nick Weiger from the
Doughboys, punched up a couple
of those scripts.
It was a totally awesome team of people.
Dan Kennedy, how could we forget our buddy Dan Kennedy?
DK all day.
You know, I just went on Dan Kennedy's podcast, KPODD, with our friend Ben Harrison.
I got to appear as they do a morning show from 1998, a morning radio show from 1998.
And I got to be their television green grocer stopping by.
Hey, there you go.
I taught them what to do to fight scurvy.
They both have scurvy.
It's a big problem for them.
They're roommates in addition to being co-hosts.
Yeah.
And total like, yeah.
Thanks to everybody who works on the podcast.
Thanks to everybody who's gotten the book.
And Sarah mentioned there was a nice little run of people tweeting photos of their pets reading the book.
More, please.
More, more, more.
More.
Listen.
Force your cat in front of a copy of Bubble and have them look a bit awkward.
The cat will not like it.
We will accept Kindle submissions or e-book submissions just as long as the cat
looks upset about it. They're the
best ones. So yeah, obviously a lot of great
dogs, a lot of great cats, a few great
bunnies, but we got a
chinch. We got a chinchilla.
That's
bingo. So yeah, definitely
if you like the book,
any social media
post you do want to do about it
really helps if you want to review it
on a popular
site that accepts book reviews
that's awesome but yeah

comic book lover in your
house they do not have to have heard
the podcast but if they have

Really? That guy? I don't know.
He and I went to high school together and we got to talking.
Yeah. Big comic book guy, huh?
Yeah.
He's a rich guy.
No, he's a big lover.
Yeah. He's a rich guy, so he probably has a lot of like
um like limited edition covers yeah like hologram covers a lot of hologram covers
he's got like the watchman that they release like every five years like the ultimate watchman
but like this one's got like six extra pages of some of that pirate shit in the middle. And I'd like.
Yeah.

Yes.

of fucking shit. Yeah, alright
Weekender. Alan Moore
really hates this version
This is kind of cool, related to Bubble, because of
Sarah and I's last name, we are
often, Bubble is often
next to Alan Moore books in a bookstore
Yay!
Wasn't that nice? Some people accidentally buying it
because they think it's a sequel
to The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
Also because of my name being the same name
as a popular romance author,
I quite often get mail for her
and she gets mail for me.
Isn't that sweet?
So she is quite annoyed that I went into book writing
because when I was just a tv writer
it was fine and now on twitter i think she's slightly pissed off by the fact that i have an
amazon clicky thing uh so thank you jordan for helping me annoy a very rich woman um
who seems quite nice do you think there's people who bought the book thinking that it was from the other Sarah Morgan who are pissed that it's not hornier?
Yeah.
She writes very specific Christmas-themed romances.
And I suppose there is a Christmas scene in Bubble, but it comes right to the end.
It's not really a Christmas themed novel. Have you guys seen just on the subject of, I look, we're ending the show,
but have you guys seen on the subject
of rich romance authors?
