What Trader Joe's?
You're probably going to the wrong Trader Joe's.
You should be going to the South Pasadena Trader Joe's.
You're probably going to the Pasadena Trader Joe's.
Yeah, I am because it's the first Trader Joe's.
No.
No, the South Pasadena Trader Joe's is...
Oh, wait.
Isn't that in South Pasadena?
Okay, look.
Are we both?
The point is-
This is what people want.
You're going to the right Trader Joe's.
Roman stuff.
You're just getting the wrong checker.
Man, okay.
Yeah.
Do we go to the same Trader Joe's?
That's a fun reveal.
We go to the same Trader Joe's in the same farmer's market.
We're the same guy.
God, similar men.
Please take care of my family.
Go ahead, Jordan.
Yeah, so I was at the pool. I was at the Verdugo Aquatic Facility. Please take care of my family. Go ahead, Jordan. Yeah.
So I was at the pool.
I was at the Verdugo Aquatic Facility.
Because you're too chicken shit to go to the Rose Bowl.
No, I just have friends at Verdugo.
The Rose Bowl is too big for you. It's a bagel place.
You can't fucking handle it.
Bagel place near there that I like.
You're worried you'd choke under the big lights.
Go ahead.
That's true.
That's true.
I am worried about choking. Yeah. Ugh, this gag reflex.
Boy.
So I was at the pool and I was getting, and I'm, so I'm out of the pool.
I'm drying off and I see, I see someone else
giving me, giving me the, giving me the look, giving me the
what do I know you from? Oh, not a romantic look.
So I considered it. I considered it.
But it turned out not to be that. But it was not a
come hither. It was like,
were you in?
It was that.
Do you think this person, do you think, did you look at this person and see them and grok them as somebody who might have been hanging out in a lot of sports bars that had a ton of TVs around 2011?
Like just a shit ton of TVs.
So they got every football game right every basketball game but then
they also have fuel you yeah you're referring to my for my time on the uh late uh lamented
yeah sports network fuel tv so this yeah so this guy was uh this guy was a a hunk a hunk or a stud
okay straight up no one no i don't think anybody would say that i was wrong calling this
fellow hunker a stud right so you're thinking immediately they know that he knows you from all
about steve sure yes so you know it's like does does is this a 25 year old with a lip ring
this is probably a retinolink fan is this this a 35-year-old dressed like Roger Stone coming back from a Christmas party?
This is a Jordan Jesse Goh fan.
Or a character Tom Waits would play in a movie.
Yeah.
Wait, are all our fans white-suited dandies?
They're, you know, it's a vibe.
Okay.
It's a vibe.
Yes, yeah.
So, but this, I mean, obviously, this guy's wearing a Speedo.
I don't know what his look is, but, like, I don't think he's one of these.
Yeah.
And.
You can probably tell what kind of effect he's going to have on your gag reflex, if you know what I mean.
Yeah.
Yeah.
God willing.
God willing.
And I know, it's okay, a recurring topic on this show is how you should not, if someone, you shouldn't tell someone who you think they look like.
Yeah.
Right? you shouldn't tell someone who you think they look like. Yeah. Right.
We have a rule that if you're going to tell someone they look like someone, the person you're going to say they look like has to be famous in part for being attractive.
Right.
So you can't just say, well, I find them attractive.
Right.
That's great.
After you get offended. Right. That's great. After you get offended.
Yeah.
That's great.
Mm-hmm.
They have to be famous for being attractive.
Kate Winslet, which is who I think you look like.
Go ahead.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm not a size zero either, you know?
Real Jordan self-curves.
Thank you. And I think we all loved my philly accent

yes and i said uh no i have i have done some work for youtube so i've been in some YouTube videos, but I don't do Tesla hack videos.
He's like, man, you just, you look, can I show you?
So he gets his phone, gets his phone out of his bag, comes over.
I didn't even know, Jordan, that Kate Winslet was doing those videos.
It seems like her acting career should be enough.
Listen, we all, yeah, you think so.
But I mean, you know, those minimums are, you know, they're going down.
People aren't getting as many residuals because of streaming.
So, you know, you got to have you have your Patreon.
You got to have your OnlyFans.
You got to have your Tesla hack videos.
So he pulls up this.
Kate Winslet's OnlyFans.

Guy brings up the YouTube app, pulls up these tesla which are like saved in his
phone they're like right there he didn't have to shirts for it pulls up these tesla hack videos
i look exactly like this fucking guy this is the spider-man meme of him pointing at the other
spider-man this is this is this is my into the spider-verse i look exactly like this tesla and this guy is just
walking around at tesla going you know if you want to unlock it you have to get close with the key
and he's just doing and it's not even like can you like jailbreak it to make it play you know
whatever like like torrented videos or something like that. It's just like, here's how to maximize the trunk space in your Tesla.
And I'm like, well, I bet this guy makes more in a video than I make in six months.
So why don't I lean in?
I don't own a Tesla.
I don't have a lot of interest in Teslas.
But I mean, I can learn.
I can start getting into Elon, the boring company, Grimes.
Scams in general.
Scams, sure. I can do it. I think I can do it.
Just broadly.
Are you with me?
Can I, I want to share with you a picture that someone sent me on the internet one day.
And this is going to be something that we'll share on Facebook and so forth eventually.
But it is a painting of a man whose name is Martin Tovar E. Tovar.var okay i don't really know who that is i believe he's like
some sort of spanish general from the 19th century okay and people post pictures that they say look
like me all the time and they at message me and i'll tell you what about them looks like me it is that they are
white people with beards right all white people with beards brown beards no blondies sure all
people all white people with brown beards usually bald so you've gotten every lumineer you've got
every mumford and son yes not the sun Son so much anymore as I've entered middle age.
Sure, yeah.
Now, Martin Tovar y Tovar, I had to admit, legitimately looks like me.
So I have shared this in the chat.
We'll introduce our guest on the program.
Our guest on the program is an acclaimed comic actor. He's the star of numerous films and television series. He's a good old friend of ours.
He's a man we've talked about Trader Joe's with many times.
Let's find out what Trader Joe's he goes to. Won't that be exciting?
Hi, Rob.
Yeah. Oh, you guys. I'm so glad you brought trader joe's back up
because that was at the beginning the very beginning and i felt like it would be shoehorning
it in if i because i got so so much to say you know what do you get free at the south pasadena
trader joe which was the first one they have uh plates yeah There's plates? In the back with the little frozen foods that they've cooked up.
And they just give them to you.
So you're going to ask for a plate at Trader Joe's?
You're like, oh, I don't want the pig in a blanket.
I'll just take the plate.
Is this only if you have a Tesla?
Is this only if you have a Tesla?
I go to the Silver Lake Trader Joe's.
And yeah, this is Silver Lake.
Right.
Beck eats there.
Parents go there in their Teslas, yes.
And the Tesla 3s, though.
Not the S.
Yeah.
Rob, I'm writing all this down because I didn't know there was a three i didn't know there was an s so i have uh never been interested in any i kind of
tune out when i hear tesla and that is that that there is tesla hack videos is fascinating to me
and then i was like oh my god that's is it worth getting one of those cars to be able to
oh no you can just like this trunk space you know you know it's great it's great because
a lot of people think that you're limited just to the regular like bookshelves that tesla sells
but because they come in component pieces you can rebuild them into other things. Wait.
Yeah.
Because it's standardized hardware.
So you can rebuild.
You can build whatever you want out of the pieces.
It's cheaper than just buying lumber.
I can tell that you're joking, but that is my dream.
Yeah.
Why can't you hack a Tesla? It's just a computer yeah then you can play japanese games yeah yeah
you can play that sonic fighting game that didn't come out in america yeah thanks jordan no problem
c-man you can't play c-man on an unhacked tesla um i thought about i'm like oh this will be funny
like i have this story i should i should find one of these videos and like show it show it to everybody um i so tesla hack video very very
popular youtube video and what and there's so many of them and i'm like why i can't find this guy who
looks like me i was searching for a little bit and i'm like i've been searching for tesla videos
for 15 minutes i have now ruined the internet for myself forever.
My algorithm is now so fucked.
My algorithm is so utterly fucked.
You're like, Apple Music is playing Grimes?
I asked for They Might Be Giants.
We should have a dummy computer for all that crap.
Yes.
A burner?
Like a burner.
You're absolutely
right this is a brilliant idea just have a little apple 2s yeah right or uh yeah and just um that's
where you do all your uh that's where it's your shame pod like yeah yeah in your chat windows, guys. Yes. I've shared a picture of Martin Tovar y Tovar.
Okay.
And you don't expect when someone shares a picture of a 19th century Spanish general with you.
Right.
That you're going to think he looks like you.
But honestly, Martin Tovar y Tovar is legitimately the spitting image of me only in a crazy 19th century general outfit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you know what?
This guy also looks like my friend Oren.
And that made me realize that you look a lot like my friend Oren, who's very handsome.
Thank you.
Very fuckable.
Yeah.
Yep.
Here's just some gut reactions about the photo of Tovari Tovar.
I think you're right.
The resemblance is absolutely there.
Tovari Tovar, and again, I don't know anything about this man.
He could be a celebrated hero or whatever.
Just my gut seeing this photo.
Holy shit.
He was a painter?
Why the fuck is he wearing this?
Oh, this is a painting.
Okay, update.
I don't look like Martin Tovari Tovar.
I look like a painting by Martin Tovari Tovar
of Antonio Guzman Blanco.
Oh.
So a lot of people out there were probably yelling that.
Yelling, screaming at their...
Oh my God!
Well, whoever this man is,
he's committed atrocities.
This is a man with a lot of blood on his hands.
He was a Venezuelan military leader,
statesman, diplomat, and politician.
He was president of Venezuela,
three separate terms.
Wow. Member of the movement known as Matt and Paul, he was president of Venezuela, three separate terms.
Wow.
Member of the movement known as Liberalismo Amarillo.
Yellow freedom, yellow liberty.
It's a really cool look, only wearing one glove, holding the other glove in his hand.
Right.
Like he wants to have it handy to slap.
For slapping.
Challenge to a duel.
Yes, for duel challenges.
Is he putting them on?
Is he taking them off?
Who knows?
I like that he's wearing a coat that has kind of a flap opening, sort of like a peacoat does. It's off center, but a similar premise.
And the lining of the coat is red with gold brocade.
Not fucking around this guy.
Rob, who do people tell you you look like someone?
Like when you were like growing up, was it someone?
And is it someone else now?
No, growing up, no.
But like Jesse was saying, I look like all bald guys.
You know?
All balds. Yeah, balds. like like jesse was saying i look like all bald guys ah you know i mean yeah balts like uh i i i'd buy uh i that i look somebody said i look like jesse thorne um and yeah i'm not as handsome as a
rob cordray if you guys could coordinate beards if you guys could coordinate beard length yeah oh man you could
probably if i had the frames if i had the specs for it yeah you could probably do a um what's that
freaky friday yeah oh you know what i here's the problem with that scheme i that's very kind of you
to say jordan it's very kind of you to say rob the reality is this rob corddry has television best friend looks in fact rob
corddry has film best friend looks this is a good looking guy whoa not real best friend looks though
people in real life see me and they're like you're gonna you're gonna steal my girl rob you're a
casual you're a casual acquaintance at best i don't like like him. I'll wave at you at the Trader Joe's.
I have
smarmy peripheral
character looks.
That's
a guy who ruined the party.
Yes.
I have a guy who goes
past in the background
on a velocipede.
I mean,
and I guess I have Tesla life hack video.
Good looks,
but I'm told a lot that,
uh,
people come up to me a lot and,
and,
and tell me that they love the hangover and that I was the best part of it.
I'm not the hangover.
Um,
um,
uh,
oh man,
let's see.
Okay. Uh, early, early 2000s raunchy comedies uh
knocked up uh super bad ron burgundy uh anchorman oh yeah yeah um yeah so it's like dave kechner i
uh oh apparently i may as well be kechner sheer paul sheer and uh and people will swear i'm not rob cordray i'm like i'm
wrong they'll be like no no you're that guy yeah yeah yeah you're that guy when you see when you
see someone kind of like coming up to you in that way and that kind of like where do i know you from
way can you kind of tell what they're going to say based on their vibe?
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's three different.
Well, there's three different looks in general, right?
The I want to fuck you look, which I have gotten since I've never I haven't gotten a long, long time.
Yeah.
I am aquatic center.
Go ahead.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So the that look the there's the the you and I know you look.
And then there's what my wife and I called mad dogging.
You know?
And she's like, see that little kid over there at the table over there?
He's mad dogging you.
And sure enough, I look over there and the kid's like, he looks like he wants to beat the shit out of me.
And so, but there is, yeah, there's like a couple different, I definitely can tell Daily Show people because they have a tote bag.
Classic limousine liberal.
They look like Alan Alda.
classic limousine liberal they look like alan alda alan alda got me there was a there was a mom at the park today pushing a kid in uh in a swing
and she had on a brown university sweatshirt and was carrying a new yorker tote bag and i just was just thinking one or the other lady
one or the other pick one yeah take off one accessory before you leave the house
yeah so it's uh those guys and then um yeah you can tell them that the other common one is the
person that doesn't know who the fuck you are but someone that they're with said that guy's famous
and they have a bet and yeah you can definitely read that in a look because they're with said that guy's famous and they have a bet.
And yeah,
you can definitely read that in a look because they're like,
they're already dubious and they're already pretending.
They don't want to have this conversation with me as they're walking up.
That's a good one.
Yeah.
What do they look like once you show them your celebrity card?
I,
well,
it takes,
I get up my,
I usually just scroll through my IMDB page for a little bit.
Have it up at all times.
I have a,
I don't have it on me,
but I have,
I'll have my SAG after my Dropbox folder.
And they'll,
they'll be like,
yeah,
yeah. And these people are usually old they're out of my um
demographic anyway so i go old people are making bets with each other usually with their kid with
their with their uh son or daughter who is right in my strike zone i'm not sag after but i keep
the letter that i got asking for three thousand,000 to join SAG-AFTRA in my Apple wallet.
Right.
Yeah.
Letting people know you're eligible.
Yeah.
I'm SAG-AFTRA eligible.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, man.
I'm going to cast you.
I'm going to cast you in something just so you have to pay.
Now you're like.
Yeah.
Cast him in something that pays $200. So he has to pay $ you're you're like cast him yeah cast him in something that pays two hundred dollars
so he has to get up to pay he has to pay three thousand dollars and it's going to be a guy going
past in the background on a whatever the fuck it was you said the loss of something yeah i pretended
like i knew what that was i plant oh the last a raptor it's like an old-time bike right yeah
okay okay yeah our bone shaker that's another kind an old-time bike, right? Yeah, old-time bicycle. Is this like an old-time? Okay. Okay. Yeah, a Bone Shaker.
That's another kind of old-time bike, Bone Shaker.
Bone Shaker?
Yeah, I think that's true.
Did that have a gear shift in the middle on the bar?
God.
You did a gear shifting motion like you were driving a big rig or possibly operating the depth on a submarine
that's my ideal is like i want you know huffing down the street when i was a kid this is my ideal
right here so rob's on an orange county chopper yeah exactly throwing it into second gear. Yeah. I feel like at any moment, I'm 30 seconds away from owning and riding a low rider bicycle.
Do it, dude.
Like plenty of them available in my community.
How much could they cost?
$350?
Like not to brag, but I got that.
I bet the base low rider bike is relatively inexpensive.
But if you really want to trick it out, that's when it's an investment.
Like when you want to put that fucking four on the floor right in the middle of it.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah.
You can't just get the base model.
That's like, you know, white Jordans.
Yeah, that's fair.
Both of you are childhood men.
Have you guys had to teach children to ride bikes in that kind of classic dad sort of way?
They got a new way of doing it now.
Do they?
I remember thinking this is going to be exactly the same.
I'm going to do this just like my dad did it.
And I don't know.
I think my kids just picked it up a lot faster than I did.
Frankly, I don't even remember, so I'm useless.
Yeah.
I'm slow on the transportation uptake.
I don't think I learned to ride a bike myself until I was like 9 or 10.
I think I was very old, and then I didn't get a driver's license until I was 20.
Oh, man.
I think I'm just most I'm most comfortable on foot.
And I just learned to drive manual.
I just learned to drive manual six weeks ago.
Why did you do it?
Why did you learn how to drive manual?
I bought a weird Japanese micro van.
I may or may not be able to.
Toyota Previa?
The Toyota Previa?
Much more, much micro-er than that.
It's called a Subaru Sambar.
Dyess Classic.
Wow.
And it's very difficult to register
in the state of California.
So there is some chance that in six or eight weeks,
I will be back on this program,
begging someone out of state to buy my Subaru Sambar.
But it had a manual
transmission so i had to get a guy to teach me how to drive manual uh and i can sort of do it now
do you like it do you like doing it well god rob you know how i am about road feel yeah right i
mean you want to be you got your driving shoes on. Yeah. Of course. Absolutely. I got my driving gloves on with the webbing on the background so that my hands don't get
clammy.
Yeah.
You can flex.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I got the oil slick.
Yeah.
I press a button.
It makes an oil slick.
Machine guns in the front.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What is it?
What makes it?
Why can't you register it?
It's something about it coming from Japan.
And California has very weird and specific emissions rules.
But we'll see how they do when they go to the CHP.
I don't think this was ever sold in the US.
So yeah, it's a real hornet's nest.
I got to talk to the chips.
Head down to the CHP.
See what Eric Estrada has to say about this.
Yeah, Podge will take care of you.
I got a guy.
I got a guy. i got an emissions guy yeah any any you guys need a cadillac converter removed and um yeah need to pass a smog test anybody yeah yeah i can do that
i can do that cadillac converter off so now these, you teach a child to ride a bicycle in the following manner.
Yeah.
You get them one of these scoot bikes that doesn't have any pedals.
Instead of getting them, they don't do, now it's not advised to have training wheels.
Training wheels are out.
Scoot bikes are in. You get these bikes that
have pedals, but you just take off the pedals and then you make the seat low enough that they can
scoot around on it. So they sit on the seat and scoot with their feet. And eventually they get
bored of that. And by the time they're bored of that, they can balance it. And they're like,
please put the pedals on. And you put the pedals on and then they can basically just do it huh what are the emissions
like on one of those bikes uh well that's the thing you got to get it you got to get the vin
verified at the chp and you don't oh i got a guy that can do that you need a guy yeah i need a
cadillac conversion can you get me that yeah yeah on a scoot On a scoot? On a scoot? Yeah, on a scoot. Let me make a call. I have the scoots, by the way.
Just a side note.
Go ahead, Jordan.
I know Vin Diesel is a stage name.
Do you think that's where he got Vin from?
I don't think it's a stage name.
I kind of understand where Diesel came from.
His mother named him Vehicle Identification Number Diesel.
It was actually, at birth, it was Vehicle Identification Number Diesel. It was actually, at birth, it was Vehicle Identification Number Dieselberg.
I forget what Vin Diesel's real name, but it is something like Norton Chomley.
It is something that is just like so...
Wow.
It would be awesome if Vin Diesel's dad was Noam Chomsky.
I feel like an idiot.
I totally bought Vin Diesel.
Never even second guessed it.
Really?
Yeah.
You were just kind of like, this is the power of names.
Like when you give someone a name like Vin Diesel, of course, they're going to be the greatest action star of their generation.
It might be that.
You've never worked with Vin Diesel.
Have you ever worked with him?
Have you ever?
No, no, no, no no no tyrese um never worked with tyrese either or kate winslet what's
the number one like if somebody comes up to you at a bar and they say my friend says you've worked
with a real celebrity what what name would you pull oh the rock The Rock. Yeah. Right? I mean, yeah.
I mean, Walton Goggins is a close number two, but it's probably got to be The Rock.
Well, for me personally, there's a whole
host of like,
yeah, but The Rock would definitely be
the most famous. I mean, I think he's
statistically the most famous
person in the world. Right. Human.
The most known human. Yeah.
This is when you were in the WWE.
I pulled The Undertaker.
We need WWE
stars. Yeah.
For me, it's got to be Rowdy Roddy Piper.
Did you know
that a real thing...
So you guys know football
teams, right? Yeah. Professional
football teams? Yeah. Cleveland Browns, of course, Buffalo Bills, so on and so forth.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The National Football League.
Green Bay Packers, for instance.
Should we just keep naming them?
Yeah.
I'll name one.
Go ahead.
Miami Dolphins.
Of course.
The Miami Dolphins.
Miami Dolphins. Everybody wants to talk Miami Dolphins. New Orleans Miami Dolphins Miami Dolphins
Everybody wants to talk
Miami Dolphins
So we're all on the same page
Yeah
Yes
So
You knew they had to come
Marching into this conversation
Right guys?
There you go
This
I knew you were going
Somewhere with this
That was good
This whole thing
Was a setup
For that perfect gag
That's right
So Football teams NFL football teams This whole thing was a setup for that perfect gag.
So football teams, NFL football teams will be like, and I think I heard about this because the 49ers did this a few years ago.
And it was like when they were headed to the Super Bowl or the NFC championship game or
something.
It was for a huge, huge game.
And again, these are professional football players.
They've been
playing football their entire life. They're getting paid, in some cases, many millions of
dollars to do this. They're the best in the world. And they need to get inspired. And football
coaches will hire Ric Flair to come inspire the players. Wow. Ric Flair will just come.
Just actual 65-year-old or 70-year-old Ric Flair
will be paid real money by an NFL football team
in the playoffs to come.
Playing in the NFL playoffs, not enough for these teams.
But when 1980s wrestling star Ric Flair
shows up to yell at them that's when it really
gets gets going like okay the the age of your average professional football player is like
22 yeah who knows who rick flair is these men are asking byf dolf lundgren to come in and pump him up look it's
he-man what are you talking about what's he-man errol flynn is here folks robin hood himself
captain blood the feared pirate so i think he's probably what is so, so he's like, is he specifically sports for, or specifically
NFL motivational speaker?
I think he does this for baseball.
I think a big part of Ric Flair's business now is delivering inspirational speeches to
professional teams, to professional sports teams.
I don't know if he, look, I can't sit here here and tell you does he go in there and do a hockey
team or a you know uh like uh a major league lacrosse team sure i think he's probably i think
he's probably if we type in rob highlight highlight connecticut rick flair inspires major league baseball team. Let's see.
Let's see.
He pumps up the crowd for the Astros against the Yankees,
but only via video message.
Yeah.
So it's kind of like a cameo.
Yeah.
You can just buy a cameo from Ric Flair and play it on the Jumbotron.
He also gave a gold championship wrestling belt to Dustin Bedroia at Fenway Park.
But it looks like Ric Flair is really focusing on the NFL. He's inspired the Falcons
and the 49ers. He visited the 49ers. How many of these teams have won?
I don't know. That's an interesting question.
So, I mean, maybe I think what we have to think about is, is Ric Flair a jinx?
Wow.
Should you hire Ric Flair for your enemies?
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Man.
Do you think it's possible Ric Flair gave an inspirational speech to the ozone layer?
And that's why we're in such trouble?
No, I think it's oil corporations, Jesse, not paying their fair share.
I don't know.
I'm going to be humorless guy.
It turns out.
That's my that's going to be my thing.
Rick Flair's dad was Noam Chomsky.
Sure.
I don't know.
Why do we even make this show?
Oh, Jesse, say say something say something about
so I'd say like oh Ric Flair inspires football teams yeah Ric Ric Flair has inspired a number
of football teams including oh so can he cure CTE thanks Jordan can he cure it Jordan's new
character humorless guy having a lot of fun with this hey Jordan do you know about
have you heard anything about this
character from the world of Nintendo
named Wario
this guy's like an evil Mario
sounds like someone storming the capital on
January 6th
who still hasn't been prosecuted
you know
kids in cages sorry um all that's actually a problem that's all actually
a problem these things are real problems all jokes aside all jokes aside these are all actual
problems i'm not saying that they're not your actual problem just saying this is a type of
person who sometimes like you know just like fucking torpedoes a conversation with some like
one bummer you guys know what i mean you guys know yeah that's i think oh that's the kind of person
that comes up to me the daily show person yeah yeah like they come they think we've done amazing
work important important work important there was a time i'm a public radio host who often interviews comedy personalities for my program bullseye and um there was a time
when i was just booking guest after guest on my show and i would ask my guy at public radio
international like did that have any impact like have any of these program directors heard of any
of these people and eventually he just said jesse
just book people from the daily show it's what they know just book original his advice was people
from the daily show and cast members of the original star trek the first star trek He's like, get George, George Takei and Rob Corddry
was his recommendation.
Two very different worlds.
Is it possible
since they were
watching so much
Daily Show,
like they would have like
maybe had Comedy Central on
and you could have like
made some headway
by booking Cartman?
Yeah.
Or any of the guys,
any of the boys.
I literally had Mancia on six times,
six times.
I interviewed Carlos Mencia.
We really got into it.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Never made an impact.
He doesn't move.
He doesn't move the needle.
No,
that's just the reality of the situation.
How have things been going in your life,
Rob?
It's been,
it's been a while since we've talked.
It's been great.
Um, I've been, uh, I've been great. I life, Rob? It's been a while since we've talked. It's been great. I've been great.
I have been doing nothing.
I have so little to say about myself.
I was telling the guys earlier, I got COVID.
And yeah, about a month ago.
19 or one of the new?
Yeah, 19. 19 a month ago. 19 or one of the new ones? Yeah, 19.
19, the good one.
And it was...
Certainly tops in its field.
Fantastic.
It was fantastic to finally...
I don't know if you heard me before,
but I know your audience didn't
because this is the show and that wasn't the show.
Yeah.
But, you know...
Cordra gets it.
Cordra gets it. I was a little uh yeah i i felt a little
starstruck like this is the thing we've been talking about and here it is in my house it was
uh it was great you know but that said i was very very very sick very sick just no omicron's the
one to get yeah i i'll say this for COVID-19.
You know, a lot of people put it down and look, as my friend Jordan Morris would say, it's a real problem.
Go ahead.
There's no doubt about that.
It's a real problem.
But you have to credit it with really putting COVIDs on the map.
There were all these previous COVIDs.
Not one of them, you know, not one of them was on the front page of the New York Times.
not one of them you know not one of them was on the front page of the new york times but it's kind of like how how how nirvana you know led to popularity for other grunge bands
yeah uh yeah yeah from now on it's going to be we're going to be saturated
with different yeah uh you're right that's a really good point that's a really good point
i've always been more into COVID X
COVID X?
I just kind of feel like it takes it to the max, you know?
Sure
COVID Xtreme!
I'm into COVID Blue Raspberry
Baja Blast COVID
Low Sugar COVID
Oh, sugar?
The thing that's causing the obesity epidemic in our country.
Who are you here with, sir?
I can't find my way home.
I lost my phone and I wandered in.
I stepped on a nail and it really hurts
this is a private
party to celebrate the
death of our dear friend
oh death
the thing that takes people to heaven
I'm sorry
I'll leave
try and find a payphone
if there was another way to get to heaven now that you it, that would be how to do it, right?
What's that?
If there was another way to get to heaven besides death.
Yeah, well, I mean, yeah.
To what? Barge in on parties?
No.
What's the waste?
I mean, just get up there and flap around a little.
Just go, you mean.
You're saying just go.
Yeah.
Just hit that shit up.
I don't-
Like, you know, we're all waiting for the-
I have no argument.
We're all waiting for the perfect time to take that vacation.
I've always wanted to see Rome.
I've always wanted to see Bali.
Just go.
Yeah.
Just go to heaven.
Just go to heaven.
Just go.
It's like, you know how British people are always going to Ibiza
Instead of going to Ibiza
Just go to heaven
Either way bring Molly
Sure
When you're rolling in the big H
Oh man it's God does he know we're fucked up i think he knows we're fucked up
oh man saint peter you feel so good in my hand
saint peter from the judeo-christian tradition that's been putting down whips. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
I think,
what would be your top way
to get to heaven other than dying?
That's a great question.
Great question.
I think with the,
I would be surrounded
with my best friends,
the Avengers,
and it would probably be
through a portal
that either Tony Stark or the Hulk
or Hank Pym whipped up who's your best friend in the Avengers Rob oh who do I yeah you mean like
who do you hang out with the most like obviously you do a lot of group hangs it's gonna surprise
you uh-huh Clint Barton Hawkeye oh really yeah great guy nobody else except for the black widow
i think so and we have sort of a fun little group you know the three of us that's my did i um
rob yokoham so you hawkeye hawkeye and the black widow the black widow you say you have a fun
little group fun little yeah they sure did didn't i just went ahead and said it i just went ahead
and said it fun to say is this is this a romantic group or or purely sexual oh we we yeah we fuck
we fuck each other yeah oh yeah yeah cool every which way every which way
from sunday god you know what i'd love to have i'd love to have the hawkeye from the avengers
go ahead uh shoot an arrow right right into my prostate now that's sure just
wow that's an orgasm like you've never felt before well if anybody can do it it's it's clint
he's that good he's that good he's saying it's a small target there sounds unbelievable you gotta
get the angle right he never misses jordan what would be your top way to get into heaven besides
uh besides uh uh dying and avengers is already taken
fuck i was gonna say avengers uh i'm gonna go with the justice league
i'm gonna get superman to throw me into a you're going into a portal i'm going into a boom tube
created by a mother box yeah so it's totally different it's not just the same fucking thing
that's good everybody does to push a plot guys
i feel like we are all sort of on the same page here because i was thinking alpha flight the only
problem is the quarantine rules in vancouver yeah so you go up there you know gotta spend two weeks
in the hotel room before and then you could put one of the characters from Alpha Flight.
I literally can't name an Alpha Flight.
Was Wolverine in that?
Maybe Wolverine's in Alpha Flight.
I'm sure he's been in Alpha Flight.
I mean, he's Canadian.
Who's in Alpha Flight, Rob?
I'm sure he's been probably,
he's probably hung out peripherally
and been like, you guys are losers.
I'm out of here.
I'm in all of the groups. He's in all of the
groups. Who's in
Alpha Flight? I don't...
You got Sasquatch.
You got the Wendigo. Oh, yeah.
Really?
Yeah, I think so.
I think Wendigo is a
bad guy, but I think
he goes back and forth.
Shaman, Snowbird sasquatch aurora
north star and guardian oh but later in volume two you got man bot
that's some top tier top tier material there
is wendigo in there or is he only a bad guy well you got puck and puck too and of course
oh well that's no joke major maple leaf and yukon jack jesus christ these are can you be racist
against canada yeah the syrup boy and i don't think they, they probably not made an alpha flight in a long time. Wendigo is one of the notable villains along with the Plo Dex and the Collector.
The Collector.
Okay.
We all know the Collector.
And of course, Soman, the great artificer.
Yep.
You guys know about him.
Puck is fun.
He cracks wise.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Soman is known for his artifice. Okay. Now, what are the admissions on that. Yeah. Yeah. And so Mon is known for his artifice.
Okay.
You know?
Now, what are the admissions on that?
Yeah.
Alpha flight would be how I would get to heaven without dying. That would be amazing.
Sorry, I was just talking to a humorless guy.
Yeah.
And he was about to yell some shit about how Canada's healthcare is better than ours, about
how, you know, in Scandinavian countries,
they get six months off for,
um,
maternity leave.
Um,
so should we just like take a break and I can like calm him down?
Yeah,
please get him some,
get him a spoonful of Nutella.

compelled huh i know i have no no idea why i do it yeah you know everybody else a lot of people
do it and then i just yeah you start doing like i'm thirsty right you know yeah that's a good reason i can understand that yeah it's a thing i'm dying i'm dying sure it's
corroding my liver but yeah you know i'm not in good health no my body does not retain vitamins
i love the taste you know I just love Love the taste
I felt the same way about
Orange is the New Black
At first I was like I don't know if this
Women in prison show is for me
But then I tried it I fell in love with the characters
Sure
That's ultimately
It's possible that you fell in love with the characters Rob
Is Orange is the New Black what caused
Your liver to erode?
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, I'm in O-I-T-N-B-A.
Everything in moderation.
Let go and let God.
That's what I say with regard to Orange is the New Black.
Right.
One day at a time.
Just admit there's a higher power.
And it's Netflix.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Ba-bong.
Jordan, I've been admitting that since a little show called Lillehammer.
Wait, is that the one about the American gangster in Norway?
That's the one.
That's the one. That's the one.
Still the best Netflix show.
Still the best one. It's all been downhill
since Lilyhammer. Can I just say this?
Say what you will about
little Stevie Van Zandt,
but he really put Norway on the map.
Am I right?
Norway? Yeah.
You just said a mouthful. Thank you.
Norway?
In his memoir, he said he was addicted to threesomes.
Classic problem.
Just, you know, together with the Black Widow and Hawkeye.
He was not in The Avengers or Alpha Flight, but he was in not in the avengers or alpha flight but he was in beta flight
sure beta flight is me and jordan
that's what they call this show yeah we changed the name from the cuck squad
to beta flight okay so we don't fight crime nope we don't we just cry we don't assemble no no one
assembles oh yucky oh yuck so much rigmarole the planning oh boy things we hate rigmarole and of
course bunkum oh also a monkey business malarkey and again beeswax beeswax the whole thing these are malarkey yeah these are words
that are somewhat similar so uh we take we take phone calls on this show rob just so you know
a 206-984-4 fun that's crazy we just have people send us voice memos at jj go at maximum fun.org
look i don't mean to offend your delicate sensibilities, Robert.
It's just
crazy. So it's something we've
been doing a lot of. You guys are nuts, man.
We're going to put this on the map.
So
we have a lot of segments that we've
thought of. The map
of Norway?
Thanks, Jordan.
Addicted to threesomes?
To threesomes?
An American gangster addicted to threesomes?
Always wearing a bandana?
So, I'm supposed to be interviewing little Stevie for Bullseye coming up.
I'll be sure to play him a segment.
I'm supposed to be interviewing little Stevie for Bullseye coming up.
I'll be sure to play him a segment.
It's your duty as a journalist to ask him about his addiction to threesomes.
So we have a lot of segments that we've thought of that people call into.
It's our idea that we thought of when we're working on the show, which we do a lot.
We don't just sit down and bullshit about other ways to get into heaven besides dying.
Yeah,
I get it.
You guys are,
you guys are professionals.
You spit ball.
Sure.
And,
um,
so we spit ball,
then we win.
Oh,
only the gold comes on this show and no bad ideas,
et cetera.
And then you have this segment. Just solid gold stuff.
Describing paintings, 19th century paintings.
So this is an example of one of those segments that we created.
It's not just someone calling in, then saying a segment they thought of,
and then doing something for that segment. I feel like that's what it is.
I feel like that's what it is, I feel like that's what it is.
So this is something we thought of and probably copyrighted when the writers called.
Okay.
Okay.
And then they called in later after we thought of it.
Go ahead and play Brian.
Let's say that's what it is.
Hey, Jordan.
Hey, Jesse.
Hey, Brian.
And guest.
Going to go ahead and say the guy who voiced the Kool-Aid man in the Kool-Aid commercials.
Anyway, my name is Nick, and I'm in for your long-standing and much beloved segment
things i overheard in the public restroom uh as a transgender man i don't have the greatest
relationship with public bathrooms always been a little anxious self-conscious uh but this past
summer on a sunday afternoon i was in the stall minding my business. A man walked into the bathroom and came up to the urinal very close to me, probably did not realize I was there, unzipped and said softly to himself, okay, it's pee pee time.
And after that, I was not so self-conscious about my activities in the bathroom.
Thanks.
Love the show.
Bye.
Oh, wow.
Sometimes your penis needs a pep talk. like a football team needs rick flair
it's me the nature boy rick flair
oh yeah did someone say pee pee time snap into a penis
and then it's nappies.
I'm a French guy that barely speaks English.
Andre the Giant is here too.
I'm drinking a case of wine so I really know how to pee.
It's me, Brutus the Barber Beefcake.
But you didn't know my voice was so weird.
Hi, I'm the Undertaker.
I'm going to do my signature move on you, which is probably a suplex or something.
That was a joke in the movie
Suburban Commando, is that Undertaker
was one of the bad guys, and then at the end,
and he didn't talk, and at the end he finally talked
and he had a weird voice. Oh my gosh.
Well, I mean,
I probably thought
of that before they made that movie.
Mailed it to myself.
I'm not suggesting that you, i'm just saying that's a fun
it's like a fun connection i'm not saying that you stole it just a fun connection i steal all
my shits from fucking suburban commander it's i gotta come clean here oh no all the good shit
the best shit the thing about how to get into heaven without well it's packed it's packed
wall to wall the list list of Alpha Flight people,
that was also a Suburban Commander.
You can just steal from the middle 20 minutes
and people wouldn't even know
because it's so packed.
That's good.
Packed.
It's packed.
Too much.
All the great gags I had
about learning to drive manual.
It's all from Suburban Commander.
All from Suburban Commander.
My driver is,
my driving instructor,

It is actually offensive.
Yeah, you can't find the real person.
Those old Looney Tunes are great, but they're from a different time.
It's not that the humorless person is wrong.
No, the humorless person is not wrong.
Everything he says is right.
He's right, yeah. He has a point.
He just has a weird way of
bringing it up in a way that, well, this isn't
productive. What can we do about it? We're just talking here i think yelling at us and making us feel bad you
know you guys know what i'm talking about he's right yeah he just doesn't know like he doesn't
know that's for instagram and twitter thank you that's what twitter is for social media to be
humorless yes to ask open-ended questions something else that has been happening on

Boy-o-yoing. something where they saw something or heard. Oh, my God.
Where are you?
Oh.
Hello, Jordan, Jesse, Brian, Val, and guest.
This is Rebecca from Missoula, Montana, calling in for your new segment,
Inappropriate Media Consumed at a Too Young Age.
When I was about eight, another little girl in the neighborhood
had a birthday and her mom took all the little girls in the neighborhood out to eat and then to
a new movie that had just come out. And I'm not sure what that mother was thinking. Maybe that
it was going to be a fun science fiction space movie like star wars
or the black hole she took us all to a showing of alien so that's right a whole row of seven
eight nine-year-old girls and the mother sitting through alien that movie remains the only time
outside of my babyhood and toddlerhood where I pissed my pants.
It was during the scene when Tom Skerritt encounters the alien in an air duct.
I think I just sat there in my pee until the end of the movie and then asked to be taken home right away.
Where I had nightmares for weeks.
That same mother, a few years later, did a similar thing.
New mother, later.
Again, it was her daughter's birthday,
and she took all the little girls in the neighborhood
to a shoning of Conan the Barbarian.
So when I was about 11,
I got to see lots of boobies on the big screen,
some cannibalism, an orgy, a big snake,
and Arnold Schwarzenegger having wild sex with a sorceress.
Thanks so much.
Friday night at my house.
Yeah.
So movies are a lot worse now, right?
Yeah.
They're like bad in comparison, right?
My kids would probably be bored by Alien.
Yeah.
This week my daughter started her own horror magazine oh zine oh my god that's great
it's called death diy okay it's instead of life she explained instead of life magazine it's called
death oh that's funny the main content in this magazine how does she know about life magazine yeah there's life still around i
keep one i keep one in the spokes of my velocipede uh-huh you know how does she know about life
magazine the greatest magazine ever and yeah your kids love the saturday on post gone colliers Gone. Colliers. Colliers.
So the content of the magazine so far is there's, well, there's multiple episodes at this point.
Each one has a full page advertisement for how you get a subscription to the magazine.
The first episode, she offers a subscription to the magazine
for the low price
of one bloody knife.
Yeah.
This is great.
She is great.
Yeah.
And then the main content
is interviews.
The interviews are actually
just transcribed conversations
of her asking my wife
if she's allowed to watch different movies.
Oh, my God.
Jeez.
She's a genius.
I'm going to need to get Fantagraphics on the phone.
Just her asking my wife if she can see Saw or whatever.
Wow.
Oh, man.
Well, she can't.
On Common Sense Media.
Oh, God. Yeah. how old is your daughter um about she's 35 um mom i'm 35 can i somewhere around 10 watch hostile she's probably yeah wow
we well that is uh my daughter and I, um,
we just during the pandemic, I set up, uh, she, she, they wanted to start watching, um, horror movies. And I, I set up, uh,
Sloan's horror school and, uh,
and we started going through, uh, you know, knocking down the classics.
I really tried to curate it and i forget what it was
something destroyed her didn't get to to alien unfortunately uh when you say that yeah when you
say the classics what what does that mean okay what are we what are we talking tier one syllabus yep done yep psycho done sure halloween done then i threw in get out because i was like
sure a new class yeah let's let's let's pop a modern one in here and then we did not make it
to evil dead 2 because i went off syllabus and see that's what that's something no one no one should ever
do blair witch project right which is i mean yeah how did that hold up in a month because that is
like you know like obviously so shocking at the time and like had the like is it real factor but
like now that there's so much found footage shit is that just like the most boring nothing of a movie no
it's great i don't know maybe maybe i'm just a sucker for it but uh it's i found it pretty scary
i was terrified by it as a kid yeah seeing it so my daughter liked it yeah it wasn't that scary
though um oh oh silence of the lamps oh yeah which isn't necessarily a horror movie, but it was like, that was my mistake because it's real life.
Potential real life.
Sure.
You know, like it's, there's that, that's plausible.
Right.
And that, I think it was like a, something, it was something's in a jar and that was it.
Yeah, right.
I didn't need the shirt.
Body part in a jar.
That was the end of um
she did not uh so basically they didn't get their degree well you know their horror
horrors from all the grave maybe they can go back to school and finish it later yeah
it was half thought out i found it that's good you did yeah that's a very good that's a very
good syllabus um yeah i'm sure you know people online will now start peppering you what you
should have put on it yeah but sorry about that right my daughter mostly wants to like bad movies
um but she also is 10 so often will watch a bad movie and she'll decide that she liked it
um not for ironic reasons,
because she doesn't want to watch good movies.
So she doesn't have a reason to understand
why a bad movie is bad necessarily,
because she doesn't want to watch a good movie.
It's a very complicated thing.
It's all basically driven by the fact
that the only man she truly admires
is Elliot Kalin from The Flophouse.
Sure.
Mm-hmm. Yeah sure yeah i didn't i think i i think i didn't like
realize that i had seen a bad movie until i was like 15 i think i just liked all i think i just
liked to watch a movie that's what i'm still i'm still kind of a sucker for a moving image yeah
train coming off the screen yeah i'll i'll check right out i'm out to lunch
my daughter and i watched i was so excited so my life just doesn't accommodate me watching movies
i work all day and i take care of my kids all evening and then i have maybe 20 30 minutes at
the end of the day so i I can't really watch a movie.
You can watch a Three Stooges movie.
Yeah, that's true.
I can watch a one reel film.
You're right, yes.
I can't watch a feature,
but I'll go to the theater and watch the newsreels, Jordan,
certainly in the cartoon short.
A piece of a Flash Gordon adventure.
Yeah.
And so I am so starved for watching movies.
So if I watch an entire movie, it's my favorite movie of all time, which happened last night with Encanto, which I think probably was pretty good.
I think that was a pretty good one.
But I watched it and just getting to watch an entire movie meant that i thought it was the greatest movie ever made uh but i will truly watch anything that my daughter
will watch with me that's not a horror movie because i don't want to watch a bad horror movie
it's too much for me um and the night before uh i watched with her uh kangaroo jack hey watched all the kangaroo jack uh he stole the money he's not
giving it back in norway australia uh really heavily features the guy from uh priscilla queen
of the desert that's when his star was really ascendant. Not the star guy,
the Australian outback prospector type guy that owns the bar in Priscilla Queen of the Desert.
He does a great job just as he does in Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Probably the most famous
actor in all of Australia. I have no idea what his name is. And I watched Kangaroo Jack, and I don't know.
Maybe I liked it.
I don't fucking know.
I don't know anymore.
Fucking Jerry O'Connell's good and everything.
He always does a great job, Jerry O'Connell.
Should he be the star of an action comedy?
I mean, it's a stretch, but he's charming.
He's a short thing.
Jerry O'Connell's a short thing. Bet on o'connell and yeah double your money yeah yeah uh my i've never seen it after
you know kind of in in in the window where it was like not super super weird to go to a a movie
theater post-covid my first movie theater movie was the wrath of man a bank robbery movie featuring
jason statham and you know one of those like nine jason statham movies that comes out every year
that's a parker uh parker book right it's based on a parker oh maybe it is no yeah i didn't know
that i like those robert parker books yeah they're good um and i walked out of that going like well
that's the greatest movie ever made.
And I think I am just going to have that opinion.
I'm going to try and not rewatch it for the rest of my life.
So that when people are like, what's your top five?
Well, obviously, Wrath of Man starring Jason Statham.
I just like was so happy to be there and enjoyed it so much.
I think I'm like, well, I've never enjoyed a movie so much as that.
And I think that is now the best movie. i think i i just want to have that opinion i'm gonna like get wrath of man like merch and posters i'm gonna see if i can find like a crew jacket or
something i'm all in i wanted to see dune in the theater so bad it didn't happen i wasn't able to
make it happen work so hard to try and make it happen. So the only movie I've seen since COVID started in a movie theater is Ben Harrison from Greatest Generation.
And I went to a morning screening in Alhambra, California of The Green Knight at a Megaplex in Alhambra, California.
And I feel the same way as you, Jordan.
As far as I'm concerned,
The Green Knight is the greatest film ever made.
A movie where a guy wanders
through underlit brown fields
and it seems like he's going to have sex,
but he doesn't.
Hell yeah.
This was Conan.
He'd be fucking.
Yeah.
I loved it.
I'm like, I think about it all the time.
I just wish that I could be watching The Green Knight in a movie theater at 11 a.m.
in Alhambra.
In a movie theater.
Like a 14-screen movie theater where two people are working.
Rob, do you remember your first one back?
Oh, yeah.
I think it was Old.
Older?
Old.
The M. Night Shyamalan.
Older's the sequel.
And I had the same experience you guys did, except I fucking hated it.
It was a piece of shit couldn't have
been worse even my 13 year old even my 13 year old daughter who was yeah she never hated a movie
was like fuck you well that's kind of beautiful the first she remembers the first time not liking
a movie that's really that's kind that's kind of great. That was terrible, right guys?
So yeah, I've watched it a couple of times since.
Fucking shitty.
Still fucking, I bought it on Blu-ray.
Shitty way to watch it.
So I walk around angry.
Yeah.
Did you know that Kangaroo Jack had an animated sequel?
No, that's interesting.
My daughter told me this.
So did Old, weirdly enough.
So did old.
Yeah.
Old Dogs actually had an animated sequel where all the actors, you know, William H. Macy and Robin Williams maybe was in that.
I don't remember.
Who's in Old Dogs?
I'd be thinking of Wild Hogs.
Oh, Wild Hogs.
Yes, yes.
Who's in Old Dogs?
Tim, what's his face old dogs movie old dogs is is is like
wild hogs but with crime old dogs is john travolta and robin williams wait what's cold pogs
that's my new line of nfts
That's my new line of NFTs.
Oh.
God, I'm going to get so rich selling fucking Pog NFTs.
Yeah.
God, Justin Bieber just spent $1.3 million for one of my Chrome Slammers.
Oh, man.

you,

yeah.
You missed pogs.

No,
I,
I was in,
uh,
I was in college.
Yeah.
I feel like I'm not missing much either.
No,
you know, the basics that it's from pineapple,
orange guava juice,
you know,
about chrome slammers now.
So that's pretty much what's important.
I seriously had already forgotten
pineapple orange guava have not come back and i think that there's a reason
like yeah pete like cool teens now dressed like they're in seinfeld
they basically embraced everything about our childhood
except Pogs. Like, no, we're not doing
that.
We have magic cards.
They're awesome.
These cool teens.
I've made a half a million dollars this year
on magic cards.

This guy named Jethro Bovingdon
He's a car journalist
He's a made up name that you just
Made up

So I mean if that doesn't get you
North Umbria
Jethro
Jethro on the Thames that's great i enjoy those top gears i'll watch
the shit out of that i uh i like that you're uh one of the funniest people who's ever hosted top
gear and that you've uh never punched anyone or used a slower onset as far as i know now i would presume we we have to behave ourselves he ruined it for
everybody way to go that guy yeah thanks man um well we'll all get that motor trend app i'll you
know what yeah i'm deleting my car and driver app right now i mean it's a lot of money it's hundreds
and hundreds of dollars okay and it's just worth it for me i mean i mean please
get it watch the show but i can't i can't just make sure you're saving your money because it is
very yeah as a businessman i can't recommend a purchase like that but it is so exorbitantly
expensive uh and then there's a monthly subscription on top of the one-time. What do they get for the monthly?
Not a lot.
Top gift.
No, nothing. If somebody from MotorTread listens to, I would be, they don't get, they would not get the comedy of this.
And so it's, it's costs the same as any other app, I'm supposed to say.
We all know the price range you're talking about.
We all subscribe to apps.
We're talking-
App money.
App and app and a comparable-
I mean, it depends how fancy the restaurant is.
But let's say a range between $6 and $12.
Maybe $16 if it's a really – like if it's something with scallops and –
You do an app appetizer again?
Yeah.
That's all I got.
It could be $5.99 a month.
It could be $6.99 a month.
$7.99 a month, for instance.
I stole – can I admit, i could be eight that app appetizer
thing from hulk hogan too oh that's what that's in suburban commando yeah yeah i feel like you

This is the perfect episode to share because this episode, a lot of our episodes are just a bunch of fucking spiraling nonsense.
Just like we start with something stupid and it just gets more and more abstruse.
You know, it just kind of goes into, it's like a madness that enters.
Like if you got a fungus in your brain, at first you're just like, why do I have a headache?
And then all of a sudden you can't walk anymore.
And then pretty soon you're, you know, you're serving an alien master.
It's basically like that in some episodes.
This episode was straightforward.
Anybody could enjoy this.
This was like, this is us.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All the shows I've done in this show yeah so many times and they've
all the other though those episodes have been complete horse shit but this this one i feel like
