Hope to see you there. Nice. Try one more where it's clear that I'm like the star.
There's a reason I didn't have you say anything. Yeah. Because you're nervous, you're skittish,
you're stuttering right now. I'm a little frightened. So I don't want you in this ad
at all. I don't want to be steamrolled, but I want the live live. So no, I won't be recording
one. In fact, for you asking that, I'm going to keep this part in. Don't. This part is now. Edit
this part out, but let's do one clean ad.
No.
You will edit this part out.
You will absolutely edit this part out.
Tell you what, I'm going to say my fucking social security number,
so you have to edit it out, okay?
Let's hear it.
0913662.
Now you have to edit it out.
Keeping it in, but we'll see you guys there.
No, no, no, no, no.
Jake and Amir, two Jews that you can't forget.
In 2010, they were big on
the internet. But then
three failed pilots,
two rejected movie
scripts. Why are you smiling? This is
terrible.
It's shitting on you.
Talk about how you guys literally failed in the entertainment industry.
You're smiling.
Jake, you're dancing like a little boy.
Is that what this show is?
You guys admitting defeat?
Look how tiny this microphone is.
Welcome back to a brand new episode of Segments.
First guest, who this?
Yes.
Is that what the segment's called?
Very good.
No, I mean, not necessarily.
It can be.
The segment could be anything, yeah.
The segment could be anything you want.
We're here with Ben Schwartz, our first guest, I think ever.
I guess we've had a mystery guest.
Jillian was on the episode.
Oh, how was Jillian?
That's right.
Jillian was nice.
She was great.
She had 20 questions to guess who it was and did not get it
guessed a lot of people that worked with us at college humor none of them jill
i forgot my wife what i'm doing here yeah so wait so you guys both know why i'm here and i don't
well you're here just for fun but we can do any of the multiple segments we had planned
oh i'm just a guest you're just a guest baby'm just a guest? You're just a guest, baby. Oh, I'm not just a guest.
You're the guest.
You're the first guest.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
What are we doing?
It's exciting.
I can give you options.
I mean, I guess, first of all,
we'll introduce the show.
This is segments, a new-ish podcast.
Tell people who I am,
because people probably don't know who I am.
Everyone knows you, of course.
No, they probably think I'm your brother.
Look at us.
Ben?
Wow.
You do have a brother named Ben at us. Ben? Wow.
You do have a brother named Ben, actually.
And I've never seen Ben and your brother Ben in the same room.
I comped him to an improv show. Yeah.
Because he was Amir's brother, I comped him.
I don't know if he can.
Okay.
Well, I've only seen that twice then.
Yeah.
And then the rehearsal dinner thing.
Jake, I haven't seen you since the wedding.
Yeah.
The red wedding.
It's crazy.
God.
Not that crazy.
It's been like six weeks. It's like a normal amount of time. No, it's crazy that it happened, we're saying. Crazy that it happened. Yeah, it's crazy. Not that crazy. It's been like six weeks.
It's crazy that it happened, we're saying.
Crazy that it happened. Yeah, it's crazy.
I can't believe, because we had a bet going
that Avital was either going to no-show
or say no on the altar.
I guess he lost.
We did both lose.
Yeah.
We both bet that you were going to get either
Runaway Bride or that you were going to give your ring to her,
and then her ring to you was a middle finger or she was going to throw vanilla yogurt at your face or something like that.
But we have another bet going.
We're going to let it ride just on the over-under how long you guys stay together.
Because I'm giving it six months.
I don't know, Ben, how long did you say you were going'm i'm giving it six months i don't know
ben how long did you say you were going to give it six days and how many right now six weeks i was
gonna say you guys better go on airplane mode what do you mean what podcast um sometimes there's a
little static and so i forgot to remind you guys to go on airplane mode why did you bet on six days
that's such a small amount just the way that you act like a person
and then around women
is like even more awkward
so I can't imagine
someone living with you.
But you're on,
so just to make sure
that you hit the phone
so you're not disturbed.
Yeah, I'm on airplane mode.
I did airplane mode
so I do airplane mode.
That's funny.
I feel like I'm on an airplane.
Why?
Because my ears are popping.
I'm so fucking upset.
Your ears pop
when you're upset?
No, when I'm on an airplane.
Why do they do that?
Because of the cabin pressure.
Oh, like steam coming out of that?
Yes, and then the steam because when you're really angry.
You're more of an olive oil, I think.
I don't think so.
Woo!
I did do that at the opening song.
Is this the show?
So what's this new show?
I haven't seen it yet.
I just see you post a lot about it.
The show is just sort of casual.
It's a hanging out, but also every 10 to 15 minutes.
How is Jake's D&D show going?
Huge.
You know we sold out Carnegie Hall, right, Ben?
I know.
I congratulate you.
I was the first person to congratulate you.
Have you played Carnegie yet?
I played Carnegie.
And Jake, you played Carnegie?
I played.
I would think I was Carnegie.
I was at Ben's Carnegie show.
Sold it out.
I played Carnegie.
You're going to say Carnegie Deli?
I think I played Carnegie Deli.
I did like a two minute set.
Your jokes show you why you shouldn't sell out Carnegie.
I thought the ear thing
was really fast and good.
It made no sense.
The steam.
I got so angry.
I gave you the
I feel like I'm in an airplane.
I gave you the
justification of steam.
You didn't really think that.
You just made the joke
and I didn't know where it was going.
What about put me on
Do Not Disturb
which is ironic
because I am just
I'm feeling disturbed.
That's fucked up.
It's not PC.
That's totally PC.
Disturbed disturbed name one disturbed
song right now and you'll get a laugh uh it's so much better when everyone is so what's the show
tell me what the show so the show is segments basically every 10 to 15 minutes is a totally
new segment we could do one two or three segments the idea of the show i love this idea great idea
oh yeah you did our last If I Were You.
Oh, yeah.
So this is legally technically our first segment.
How many views did that last one get?
Because that shows you how many people are watching.
Huge.
How many listens?
I think it was like 1,900 or something like that, and then another 27 on YouTube.
And then name any.
Big for us.
What's the lowest episode of D&D?
What does that get?
Maybe 240,000, 250.
Are we talking about, yeah.
A quarter million.
And then I think 19 more people on TikTok.
On a Thursday.
If you include all social media, plus my followers.
So we're doing this because we love each other.
What, Jake pities you?
What are we doing this for?
I think we do this because we love each other.
I love you.
I love Jake.
Yeah.
It's kind of like old habits.
I just like can't, i can't quit him i
wish i knew how to quit you so what's the first segment okay so i'll give you the options so far
do you guys know what the segments are it's a surprise we've discussed sometimes it's a surprise
sometimes we discuss okay let's do a surprise we'll do one that jake doesn't know um well we've
discussed all the options for today already it's over all right you can come up with a brand new
surprise one that i won't know okay great of course do you want to come up with one well let's do one of
yours so i know what the show okay um one of ours is you guys trying to guess this is one of our
most successful segments yet which is rare because we're only on episode poetry or you make it up
which did you say poetry yeah yeah yeah that's that poetry? Yeah, yeah, that's right. So I have two real poems
written by
poetry or no poetry.
Yeah.
And then one of mine.
You guys have to guess
which one is my poem
versus a real award winning poem.
How long are the poems?
30 seconds or less.
It's long.
It's okay.
No way,
that's such a short amount.
I said,
honestly,
I undersold it.
They're probably closer to a minute.
I can't do three minutes of poems from you.
No, you don't know which one mine is.
The two of them are award winners.
They're going to be really great poems.
If you're literally giving me two award-winning poems and then some slap you put together
at the last second.
Yeah.
You think you'll be able to figure it out?
We should do the first three poems that you read me no no let's
do it i want to do it i'll tell you jake no do it we've done this before jake instantly sniffed mine
out oh yeah of course he knew it right away or he didn't or is this a bit no i did yeah of course
yeah but i think this one's a little bit harder to sniff out so are you just trying to like get
better at writing poetry i mean if that's that's a product. That's the ultimate goal of this podcast.
Amir and I are poet laureates.
Okay.
Well, what's the other two ones so I can know what to compare them?
The other two one is a Rotten Tomatoes guessing game.
We sort of guess a Rotten Tomatoes score closest to the actual result wins cash.
I mean, I don't care about the cash part.
I love that idea.
That's a good game.
And then the last one is us writing a Jake and Amir episode with you in it, with or without you.
And it's sort of improvised on the fly for 15 minutes.
Okay.
I'll try to think of something better than all those.
How?
You loved the first two.
You said it was great.
You said you didn't care about the money, but you wanted to do that game.
Well, I'll donate the money to whoever did your theme song.
No, you won't donate shit if you don't win the game.
I'll 100% win the game.
I bet you 98% win.
Who's going to win?
You?
You, Lieutenant Weinberg?
If you're a good man, pull it up.
What do you think?
78%?
All right, let's do the poems.
Let's do the poems.
All right, fine, yeah.
Well, wait, if you're pulling up-
We're doing audience score or critic score?
It's got to be the critic score for Rotten Tomatoes.
Okay.
But for the poems, it's audience score.
Wait, I like guessing.
I like guessing.
I mean, both of them are guessing.
No, no, no, guessing a person.
I like guessing it wasn't Jillian, but he had no idea.
Oh, the mystery guest. Yeah, we can't do that.
You're obviously on the show right now.
No, no, but we pick a different person.
Oh, like we'll call someone right now and do a mystery guest?
Yeah.
There's no way. Who's available on a moment's notice like this to join
a zoom we all have the same friends i don't have any texting don cheetle oh my god shit it's gonna
be cheetle all right send him the link but he asked to join his mystery guest otherwise it
spoils the segment it would be so much more fun to do it with ben he has such jillian was answering
with her real voice you pick up as her no no she No, no, no. It was a chat. It was yes or no questions in a chat.
20 questions he had, yes or no.
And he asked 20 questions and guessed.
And he never got to Jill.
One of the questions was,
did we hook up too,
which was really messed up.
I was going to try to get your brother.
I think that would have been funny.
Yeah, that came up.
He has a professional job.
Yeah, he has a real job.
Okay, let's do one of the other stupid ones.
Okay, let's start with the poetry.
Will I be able to see by reading it? You can read it, he has a real job. Okay, let's do one of the other stupid ones. Okay, let's start with the poetry.
Will I be able to see by reading it?
You can read it, but ideally you won't.
My eyes are down.
Okay.
It looks like three seemingly identical poems.
Oh, then I can look.
You can look.
Can I read one?
You want to read them all?
No.
Okay, I'll read them.
All right.
Can I look?
You can look.
This first one is called The Funeral of a Friend's Son by Ann Pabst.
That's right.
I made fake names or they're the actual names of the poems.
That's risky because don't I just know that Ann Pabst is a poet?
Do you?
Jake, while you're doing this, are you thinking about how much time is left in the episode until you're done?
There's no way.
Yeah, I'll glance over at the clock.
I'll text somebody and I'll be like,
yeah, no, we're still... This is going to be 10, 15 minutes.
We're at 11 minutes already.
Still doing this dumb show.
Well, you've been known to sort of delay
slash derail podcasts that you're on.
Ready?
The Funeral of a Friend's Son by Ann Pabst.
Ready, Jake?
Yeah, I'm ready.
Through worn, chewed church pews poured grief.
It coursed and rushed unmoored.
No way is this it.
As if from mountains sent, as if from a deep voice of the Old Testament.
No way.
It may be.
We stood, knelt, prayed, sang, offered words of comfort.
Even certainty we mourners in black, full of holy effort.
Our hands and faces, punctuations of light, candles lit.
The torn, stained hems of our understanding hung under smooth coats.
Okay, that's poem one.
No fucking way.
You did not write that.
I was moved. If you did write that. I was moved.
If you did write it, I commend you.
Congratulations.
That's an incredible poem.
I don't think you did.
Poem two is called Ha-un.
It's a Korean name.
H-A, then E-U-N.
By H.E. Kim.
Ready?
Yeah.
You're trying to fucking, you're trying to dupe me with this one, I think.
Let's see what happens.
Tap as Harrison hopscotched across kindergarten chalk towers.
Clap as Harry graduates now dancing across a stage in gowns and hats.
Disguised symbolically at first, then veiling historically.
Ha-oon sits now to mourn Ha-oon, then Harrison, then Harry.
See, now this one, it doesn't, I think there's a chance that this could be Amir, but I think also he probably picked something.
Knock it off, Dingo. Sorry.
Dingo wants to weigh in.
Okay.
Did you hear that, Lapone?
Ha-un. Yeah, but I kind of want you to read the last verse,
just because I couldn't tell if it was poignant.
Disguised symbolically at first, then veiling historically,
Ha-un sits now to mourn Ha-un, then Harrison, then Harry.
Okay.
Potential.
Last one.
Cryptic.
Okay, yeah. okay potential last cryptic okay yeah the piece of wild things by wendell berry this one's in italics i should say i don't know why maybe it was maybe it wasn't maybe the website did it maybe i
did it hell i could have fucking wrote this one yeah well i do know that Wendell Berry is a famous poet. I come into the... Is that true? Yes.
Wendell Berry is a famous poet.
Would you change yours to a famous person's name?
Would you do that?
One or all of these names or titles could have been altered.
But, yeah.
Whether I wrote the poem or not, it's still up for grabs.
Okay.
The Piece of Wild Things by Wendell Berry.
How do you know it's Wendell? Wouldn't you say Wendell? how do you know it's wendell when you say wendell
wendell it's wendell yeah i come into the piece of wild things who do not tax their lives with
forethought of grief i come into the presence of still water you love this No, it's just that. And I feel above me the day blind stars waiting with their light for a time.
I rest in the grace of the world and am free.
Okay, Amir is either the second one or the third one.
And Jake said Wendell Berry is a poet.
Yeah, but Wendell, whoever says Wendell.
Mr. Wendell.
Maybe I took the name and I don't know how to pronounce it. I mean, I don'tendell. Mr. Wendell. Maybe I took the name
and I don't know how to pronounce it.
I don't know how to pronounce Ha-oon either.
You nailed it perfectly.
I think so.
Interesting.
There's also the first one.
I got to get close to you.
I genuinely thought the first one was beautiful.
If you wrote that, I think that's amazing.
I would happily be wrong.
The mountain sand is from deep.
And I think the Old Testament is very Amirish.
We stood in upgrade saying, offer words of comfort.
Wendell Berry says the day, the day blind stars.
Is that what he says?
In that last poem you mean?
Yeah.
Is that a phrase that he uses?
I come into the presence of still water and I I feel above me the day-blind stars.
No chance.
That's gorgeous.
You didn't write that.
I think you wrote the then hairy, then Harrison thing, which was cryptic, but I think for cryptic's sake, I didn't feel touched by it.
Wait, let me read the second one.
Tapas Harrison, Tapas Harrison hopscotch across.
I mean, it definitely feels like the least lived in.
Kindergarten chalk towers.
Clap as Harry graduates now dancing across the stage.
It feels like a child, but I think you can pick one.
It's also, it's school.
It's school.
This kid loves school.
It's school-based.
It's got to be that one.
So Jake's saying the second one.
You're also double-downing and saying the second one?
Yeah.
Well, you got so excited, I don't feel like it is now.
I'm just asking if you think it's the second one.
You're so excited.
Jake is for sure saying two.
Are you saying two as well?
Ben is reading now in tears the idea of griefing through chewed church pews unmoored
yeah i mean if god if you wrote that one i'll be so impressed i think it's like i think it
should be published somewhere come to the presence of still water and i feel above the day blind
day blind start i tell me did you like when you wrote this did you try i think i think what he did is he looked at other poems
and he grabbed pieces of them to make his own.
If you hacksaw together a plagiarized Wendell Berry poem,
I don't think that...
The easy answer is two, but I can't tell if you're so smart
you make one feel like it could be you.
Anything is possible.
Can we erase one?
Yeah, you guys can delete one by one. Jake, let's's erase one you think the first one is definitely not him correct i
think it's definitely not him okay the funeral of a friend's son is in fact by ann paps you guys
are right i did not write that one right okay well i, it's obviously Hamun, but let's... I had such high hopes.
I wanted you to say that you wrote it.
Also, I think he would make a person of Asian descent,
so it would make you feel like it couldn't be this very California Jewish guy.
Yeah, like it wouldn't be about a guy named Amir.
And I mean, I know that Wendell Berry is a poet.
I know this.
I believe I've read that poem before, that Wendell Berry, that exact one.
I had a book of Wendell Berry's poems.
So Jake's saying it's definitely two.
Yeah, but the way you're saying it.
Don't worry about the key.
I'm trying to fuck with you.
I don't think you could.
I think you could write two.
That third poem, The Piece of Wild Things, is indeed by Wendell Berry.
I wrote the second one. The bad one? Ha-oon, forendell Berry. I wrote the second one.
The bad one?
Ha-oon, for sure.
For sure I wrote Ha-oon.
Now that we know
that you wrote it,
read that again.
Oh, now.
Yeah, now let's
pick it apart.
I'll read it.
You know what?
It actually was written
by H.E. Kim.
No, it wasn't.
And he was him.
Tap.
Tap.
As Harrison hopscotched
across kindergarten
chalk towers.
That's really beautiful, actually.
Clap, as Harry graduates, now dancing across the stage in gowns and hats.
Instead of cap and gowns.
Disguised symbolically at first, then veiling historically.
Ha-un sits now to mourn Ha-un.
Then Harrison.
Then Harry.
It's actually better than I thought
I have enough distance from it now
to appreciate the poem as if somebody else
wrote it
it's not bad but I'll tell you
the disguised at first
I think that is a little clunky
that was the line
that I was like no
that didn't feel right.
He said, it's ha-oon by a man named Hee Kim.
Yeah.
I mean, better than my first attempt, I would say.
But it's still hard to write poetry
having not read a lot of poems.
Are we doing one more thing or that's it?
That's our segment.
That's this segment.
Then what happens to the rest of the show?
Losers.
All right, we're back. Do you want to the rest of the show? Losers!
All right, we're back.
Do you want to do another one or do you have to go?
What time is it?
Come on, do the Rotten Tomatoes with us.
Come on.
You got to do the Rotten Tomatoes.
I can do one more.
Yes!
Read my poem again.
No thanks.
It's really moving.
Here's how I wanted to play the Rotten Tomatoes game. Oh, Jake,
I sent you who recommended this one.
Actually, are you able to look on your phone? I want to give them credit
where credit is due. Are we gonna get
food, you think? I don't think so. Okay,
so. Kelsey
Gryffindor. On Twitter,
right? Yeah. Okay, so
here's what we're gonna do. Five movies
that we've all seen we'll come up
with them together so that you guys don't think i'm cheating again by the way that second poem
was really fucking yep uh and we'll play closest to the actual score closest to the whole win so
if a movie's at 50 and i guess 40 and ben guesses 35 and you go... You can go over. Yeah, Jake guesses like 80.
I'm the closest at 40, but I beat you by five.
So you owe me $5.
Every percentage point is a dollar.
Wait, what?
I see.
If I bet 40, I bet...
What's the percentage that it is?
50%.
Okay, and you bet 40.
I said 40%.
Okay.
You said 35.
I'm only five better than you.
So it's $5 that you owe me.
Let's do it.
Three movies.
Ready?
I said five movies, but let's start with three.
Okay.
Home Alone.
Well, we got to do like a wide variety.
It's got to be like a classic, maybe a new one.
Well, I'm going to do one.
You do one, and then Jake does one.
Okay.
We'll start with Home Alone.
That's Ben's suggestion.
Iron Man.
Okay.
Ooh, great one.
Just calm the fuck down with the movie titles.
We gotta guess the percentages.
I'm guessing first?
No, you have to pick a movie.
All of us pick one movie.
I'll say Die Hard 2.
Wow.
Die Hard with a Vengeance?
No.
No, that's three.
What's two?
Die Harder?
No.
Die Hard 2.
Is it too obscure?
Have you not seen it?
No, I've seen it.
I don't know if I've seen it.
Okay, here we go. Home Alone, Die Hard 2, and what was obscure? Have you not seen it? No, I've seen it. I don't know if I've seen it. Okay, here we go.
Home Alone, Die Hard 2, and what was yours?
Iron Man.
Great.
I love this.
Okay.
Rotten Tomatoes score.
Wow.
So we'll start with Home Alone.
Who wants to guess first?
Guessing first is kind of scary, so we'll alternate who guesses first too.
That's a great idea.
The person who suggested it has to guess last.
Okay.
So for Ben's, I'll guess first.
Okay. All right. suggested it has to guess last okay so for ben's i'll guess first okay all right i'll guess 83
man i think it's going to be higher i think it's beloved i think it was always beloved and i think
it was made for a young audience so they're going to grade it a little bit on a curve
and i'm going to say 95 oh all right ben i'm gonna say 90 split the diff
okay so i said 83 jake said 95 and i said 90 i really think it's gonna be like 80 i forgot that
you could do like 91 i yeah i don't know why i was like i'm only going in increments of five
this is exciting i like this game i bet it's 88 65 wow so i'm the closest and i beat the next closest by seven
so jake you said 95 yeah do i have to pay you that much cash 12 yeah well we're not done but
right now you owe me 12 and you owe me uh seven okay i'll write it down wow 65 that's low really
low yeah damn i'm gonna okay write this down so we don't forget.
Okay.
Home Alone.
Are you going to keep this in the podcast?
No, definitely not.
I'm yawning because I'm bored.
I don't think so.
We could do way more than three movies.
Okay, let's do five movies.
Okay, so far Ben owes me seven and Jake owes me 12.
I've got to eat food before my next thing.
You don't even have time to eat food.
I haven't eaten in weeks
Jake said Iron Man
Yeah Iron Man
So this one Ben has to guess first
78
I'll say
Oh wait
Okay I'll go second uh
82 i was gonna say 82 i'll say i'll say 85 oh so we're all pretty close iron man one 94 people wow awesome those great viewers so jake said 95
i said 85 85 you say 82 and ben said 78 yeah so jake's the closest okay Okay. Iron Man. You owe me four bucks. Jake.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
I thought it was three dollars. You owe me four bucks.
I said 82.
You said 85.
Huh?
82 and 85?
Yeah.
And what did I say?
78?
Yeah.
So I owe you five.
You owe me three bucks, dude.
Seven?
Yeah.
88.
You guessed 78, and it was, Jake said 85.
Okay.
So he was seven closers.
I'm rich. I'm not going to play anymore so he was seven closer. I'm rich.
I'm not going to play anymore.
I've got to quit while I'm ahead.
You're technically down to me because you owed me 12.
Well, now I owe you a lot less.
I lost Jake for a second.
It's fine.
We don't need him.
Keep going.
Okay.
Die Hard 2.
Die Hard 2.
Jake, are you back?
I'm back. Your internet's back, huh? Die Hard 2. Die Hard 2. Jake, are you back? I'm back.
Your internet's back, huh?
Die Hard 2.
Die Hard 2, yeah.
I guessed last.
So Jake guesses first this time.
Okay.
Die Hard 2.
They made a couple more after, so it couldn't be terrible, terrible.
Or it did really well.
Yeah.
That's true.
I'll say 79%.
High.
We should do a bad movie next, but okay.
I'm going to say 74.
72.
I'm going 72.
I'll go low.
I'll say 69.
I'm sorry.
That's so hot.
Where is your thing?
Yeah, I was going to do it, but you sort of butted in.
Where is my thing, actually?
Yeah, I sort of had a system, and then you sort of cut in front of me in line.
Hold on, let me read the poem again.
Ha-oon by Amir Blumenfeld. Oh, shit oh shit uh okay wait what did you guys guess
clap clap haun hopscotches across chalk towers oh 70, I guess 73. I guess 69, you motherfucker.
I guess 69.
And I was one off.
So pay the fucking piper.
What'd you guys, 120?
73.
So I have a question, though.
Is mine then three from what it was?
It's four away from me.
I guess three percent closer than me.
I'm so much closer.
I'm closer on my side.
Yeah, yeah.
You're three.
You owe me three. What do I owe you? This is flawed. Yeah, 79. You tell us how much you than me. I'm so much closer. I'm closer on my side. Yeah, yeah, you're three. You owe me three.
What do I owe you?
This is flawed.
Yeah, 79.
You're like, he tells how much he owes me.
He's making up the rules.
I was one away and you were four, so you owe me three.
What'd you guess, Jake?
79.
Okay, so Jake, you were nine away, so you owe me eight.
And who's donating this money?
Yeah, but you owe me three bucks from before, so we'll call it a wash.
I don't think so.
So do I owe everybody?
Yeah, Ben has yet to win.
Ben owes Amir three.
Let's choose a bad movie.
Okay.
Yeah.
Just like...
The Social Network?
Just kidding, that's beloved.
From Justin to Kelly?
Sure. But I feel like that's so bad that's gonna be like three percent or something
uh cars two
people didn't okay i think
cars three was the one people don't like oh really
all right what's a really bad animated movie that
came out and people were like that wasn't oh how about
hidalgo starring uh vigo mortensen
i didn't really see that one or
hear about what happened there.
Yeah, he has a horse.
World War Z, is that the Brad Pitt movie?
Yeah, but I think that was good.
Was it?
I don't know, I never saw it.
Try to think of a bad movie from 10 years ago.
It's literally impossible.
Because every movie is awesome.
Every movie is too good.
What about the Rocks movie?
Like Joe, what was his King Kong movie or whatever?
Rampage?
That wasn't the one I was thinking of.
It was the one with him and the gorilla.
Okay, Dracula with Leslie Nielsen?
Yeah.
Dracula dead and loving it with Leslie Nielsen.
Jake's cheating.
He's fucking looking it up.
No, I was trying to...
I was looking up the gorilla one.
I probably looked that up.
Oh, do the gorilla one.
What's the gorilla one?
I guess it was...
Wait, maybe it was Rampage.
It is Rampage.
Okay, great.
So let's all do another one.
I'll do Rampage.
Ben's doing Dracula dead and loving it.
We don't have time for this.
We gotta go quick.
Sure we do.
Let's do Rampage.
Rampage could be anything.
It could be 30.
It could be 80.
We don't know.
Okay, ready? 28%. Oh, all right. Yeah, go ahead. Sure we do. Let's do Rampage. Rampage could be anything. It could be 30. It could be 80. We don't know. Okay. Ready?
28%.
Oh, right.
Yeah, go ahead.
He's fucking...
He fucking guessed 28.
It's too late.
I didn't see it.
Of course he cannot do that.
28%, Ben?
69.
23%.
Ooh, he's going even lower.
28, 23.
I'll say 33 in a third. Actually, to go can i please change mine i want it to be 14
i saw rampage and it was really bad 14 i never saw it wait where is where are you yeah just the
browser just click on the browser just because there's one screen that's not it and that's the
browser okay here we go so So Jake's guessing 14%. Ben's crying over your poem.
Is that it?
Yeah.
This is the right page we're looking for.
Wow.
Okay.
51.
What?
Yeah.
Holy shit.
But we were so close to each other. Dwayne still got it.
What'd you guess, 28?
I guess 29.
No, you guessed, you changed it to 14 my god you you're not allowed
to change it 19 you're not allowed to change it after you say 29 you owe me 19 dollars for that
and then would you guess 20 something okay let's do another one i can't even keep track of this
one let's do wait what did you guess for rampage do you remember 23 no yeah i think he's at 23 okay so i was you owe me what about eddie
murphy raw that's the comedy movie that's beloved and you clicked enter so it's gonna
you haven't seen yet okay so it's a stand-up comedy special your computer's low in disk space of course yeah but beloved a beloved stand-up comedy movie uh okay i'll guess
how could you review that and also it was before rotten tomatoes existed
so was one alone so was any movie before 1999 i'm gonna say 78 i don't think people probably
understood what was happening like Like how good it was.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
But I bet it was controversial.
I bet there were a lot of people that were like, hey, this is too much.
I'll say 65%.
Wow.
13 bucks for me.
Yep.
I'll guess 85.
Pretty high.
You know.
77.
What did I say?
78.
Wow.
Wow.
Amir better have my money, I guess.
So I used $7.
We also didn't do the calculations for the last one.
No, of course not.
And then, Jake, what did you say for the last one?
I think I said 65%.
So tell me what you think people are, when they're watching this, what do you say for the last one? I think I said 65%. So tell me what you think people are,
when they're watching this,
what do you think they're thinking?
I'm thinking, wait,
why didn't they keep reading the poems?
Those were so incredible,
each one better than the last.
I wonder what Ha-oon is up to now.
Write a poem right now.
Why was Ha-oon mourning?
I don't really understand.
Channel Ha-oon and do one more poem.
I urge you to write a poem
and we'll try to play this game with you next time
because it's seemingly easy but then a lot harder
because every time I fucking write a sentence
I'm like that sounds like me
give me four sentences of Ha-Oon
I want him to talk about
I can just fart out a poem
sitting symbolically entering a room
not knowing the time or space from whence he came
Ha-Oon sits diligently
and morose as he stares at a fucking not knowing the time or space from whence he came. Ha-un sits diligently and
morose as he stares at
a fucking turd. Why is Ha-un always
talking about himself? Ha-un puts
himself in Ha-un cameos. Ha-un is
so weird. Ha-un is a
weirdo. Why is he just
sitting there diligently
not knowing where he came from?
Yeah, that's a
common fucking soul search that you're like, okay, I don't necessarily...
First Ha-oon, then Harry, then Harrison.
I don't align myself with my Korean grandparents.
He's Korean?
Yeah, probably.
Ha-oon, then Harrison.
You created him.
Who is he?
He's from Baltimore.
You know he's from Baltimore.
Then he goes by Harry.
That's fine.
Ha-oon goes by Harry? Yes, did you fucking read the book? Then Ha-oon, then Harrison goes by Harry. That's fine. Ha-oon goes by Harry?
Yes, did you fucking read the poem?
Ha-oon, then Harrison, then Harry.
Yes, and he mourns the loss
of his father, the original Ha-oon.
He decided to take on his name again.
You couldn't Google a single ingredient
in a Korean dish
and get the scent of
something from the kitchen.
Don't act like I didn't guess your poem, by the way,
which I did do.
Can I hear Jake's poem?
Wait, give me a real poem and Jake's poem.
I want to see if I can do it.
Well, we're talking about the poem you wrote last week.
Yeah, I know.
I'm saying how long I've been hearing this.
Yeah, I don't think I have it.
I genuinely don't have it saved anywhere.
She's one of those guys.
I wasn't proud of it.
He burns it.
He burns the poem.
No, no.
I mean, it was just that Amir got it so fast.
Are you at your house or the office?
The office.
God, you brought that ship all the way to the office?
Yeah, I had to.
That's awesome.
It wasn't allowed in the house?
Jill got it for me for something, for some reason.
And where else can I put a ship?
I have to bring it to the office
because otherwise it's just in my bedroom.
Where else can I put a ship?
Where else can I put a ship?
Ha-oon dreams of the open sea.
By the way, Ha-oon was researched.
I searched common Korean names.
I didn't know Ha-oon, of course.
That was researched. You're talking Korean names. I didn't know Ha-oon, of course. That was research.
You're talking about the Korean dish or whatever.
The fucking spice that only exists.
And honestly, Wendell Berry's poem was kind of sucky too, now that I think about it.
Go higher.
A little bit sucky.
A little bit of a sucky poem.
Do your sonic voice.
Oh, gotta go sucky.
Gotta go fast.
Gotta go sucky? Hong Kong?
Doesn't he fucking talk like that?
He came to both of the premieres.
It's like Speedy Gonzalez.
You met Jim Carrey at one of those premieres.
He was really friendly.
He was, and then what happened?
He did that stupid fucking act, whatever that was.
Should have broke out high.
Somebody meet me.
Somebody stop me.
Hey, I'm Amir.
When I met him.
I understood what you were saying, but somebody stopped me.
Yeah, somebody did stop you, right?
Actually, Ace Ventura would be a good last Rotten Tomatoes.
Ace Ventura can be all over the place.
It could be 11 or 78.
I think Ace Ventura was, you're right though, it was a comedy that maybe didn't get respect at the time.
Right, like we were 11, so we loved it.
But did Gene Siskel like Ace Ventura?
There's no way.
I'm guessing 95%. Oh. I'm guessing- 55%.
Oh, I'm guessing 19.
Wow.
I'm going to say, wow, 55 and 19?
Yeah.
Have you ever heard of those two numbers?
I feel like they must, in the Rotten Tomatoes stuff,
they must take into account new discussions about the movie, right?
Here we go.
And I just pressed the browser.
No, it's when a movie predates Rotten Tomatoes,
they just aggregate all the reviews that came out that time.
Why are you yelling at him?
He's done nothing wrong.
I guess, what did I just guess?
I just said it out loud.
Ow!
What did I just guess?
I don't know.
Guess it again before you fucking look.
He's cheating.
He bit me, so you put that as the thing
when you click on the viral video.
Oh, like a mere bite's been?
Yeah.
Wait, what did I say before?
You didn't say anything!
Fucking guess it again! I did say something. He's scrolling down. He's going to see it. I did say I'm here, Bites Ben? Yeah. Wait, what did I say? You didn't say anything. Fucking guess it again.
I did say something.
He's scrolling down.
He's going to see it.
I did say something.
What did I just say?
Oh, you thought of it.
So just say another number.
What were your numbers?
I said 19.
He said 55.
He said 55 and 19.
64.
And then I said,
have you ever heard of those two numbers?
64, 64.
Bite him again.
That was amazing.
It's 48%.
Wow, 55.
55 wins. 55. i think i did 55 wins i have to fucking take a look so you owe us do you owe me money i don't know what you guessed because you instead of
guessing a number you said what did i say and then you scroll down what did you say you said
like 16 i said i said 48 and i didn't say 48. 57 audience score.
Let me read you this text of Amir asking me to do this podcast.
Sure.
Because he knew I was so busy.
Today I was like, I really don't have time, but I love you, so I'm going to do it.
Okay.
And he promised you that.
No, that wasn't the text.
Are you free for a podcast around 11 a.m.?
It's going to be about 10 to 15 minutes.
It is 36 minutes and 32 seconds. Well, we did two segments. It's 1144. Okay. It's going to be about 10 to 15 minutes. It is 36 minutes and 32 seconds.
Well, we did two segments.
It's 1144.
Okay.
That's fine.
That's in the zone.
I did say 11 to noon.
Did he also promise that you'd get food afterwards?
I bet he did.
He must have, right?
There's no way.
There's no way I promised that.
So now how much longer do you guys go for?
It's 36 minutes.
Yeah, we're going to stop right now
and do one last segment.

Hey-o, DraftKings.
The NFL is back.
That's correct. And the best part of football season is
checking out the post-game stats i want to know which whiteout scored more than two tutties which
qb threw for less than 350 yards and if you think you can pick who will do what before the kickoff
then you should play pick six from draft kings which is an official daily fantasy partner of
the nfl wow so if you like football, and it sounds like you do.
I do.

You're a fan of gambling.
Yes, of course.
You're a fan of gambling in general.
Yes.
And I do have an affinity for the silver and black.
So if you like football as much as me, which is not likely,
because I do know a lot, like do you know what a nickelback does in a cover two defense?
Or like do you know what a play action pass is?
Like these are like some advanced things that I know that you wouldn't necessarily know.
I basically know run and Hail Maryary you actually know both of those yeah running is when you run and then hail mary is

NBD.

Jake did come. He's a good boy. He gave, NBD. I was there. Jake did come.
He's a good boy. He gave me a video of when he was there.
She made me very happy. I play it all the time.
You don't care about anything, I don't think. I don't think you come to any show that I don't. And also, Jake bought tickets.
I would have comped him easily, and he bought tickets.
I'll Venmo you $1,000 right now to support me.
What?
I'll Venmo you $1,000 right now to write a poem
for me. You said support you.
What does that mean, support you? Read and write poetry for us for us for a thousand dollars and i'll come to your show in
dallas dallas already happened when last week go really yeah jake was there he took a picture of it
actually hot and shot the entire show reject the jokes.com backslash tour there might be new merch
soon a gentleman named josh dick who's amazing is taking over my merch stuff and he's already done it.
Josh Dick?
I'm sorry.
This is like a really cool guy
that's probably had to deal
with that nonsense
all the time.
No, I was saying.
Have you learned nothing
from Haun?
You're going to make him
change his name to Harrison
then Harry
then penis.
That's not a bit, though.
Josh is amazing, and he also...
But his last name is Dick. Is that fair to say?
Yeah, but that's not what this is about.
I'm just saying his last name is Dick. That's a fine last name.
Josh is Dick. By the way, now I get why
he doesn't want me to say his name on things.
Josh Dick. God.
Anyway, so there'll be new merch at each show,
and I think we're going to have new merch coming out.
But RejectoJokes.com backslash tour.
Go to North Carolina, go to San Diego, and then all sorts of new places that I haven't announced yet.
But coming to New York City twice this year.
In 2024.
I'll be there.
2024 coming twice.
I'll compute this time, Jakey.
MSG?
Are we going bigger than Radio City?
No, I'm doing the opposite.
I'm going to do two to four shows instead of one big show.
And what would happen if me
or Jake was on stage during one of
these performances? Jake would crush. We've never done improv.
Jake would absolutely destroy it because he knows
what it's like to be on a big stage. He knows
what it's like to make people laugh. He's a
hit maker. He is, yeah.
You have to rise to the occasion, Ha-oon
style. I'm trying to think of
what you would be, I'm trying to think of what you would be like.
I would be on stage and I would be having a fucking blast
and I feel like we would have a lot of fun together
and I would be able to set you up and support you comedically.
You haven't blinked in days.
I don't have to.
Why?
Because I'm with you on stage at fucking Madison Square Garden.
It's not Madison Square Garden.
Where are you going to play instead?
I don't think I can say it.
We haven't announced it yet.
Careful, he's about to bite you.

It's just the head.
Oh my God, it's just the head.
Oh no, it's a full dog.
Can you see my baby?
Yeah. What a good dog. It's a full dog. It's a full-sized dog. Can you see my baby? Yeah.
That's a good boy.
What a good dog.
He's a good boy.
I am.
I am.
This is not a bit.
I am probably 30% responsible for Jake having that dog.
Really?
Would you agree, Jake?
I think probably more.
Wait.
Can I guess the percentage?
55.
Well, you owe me 20 bucks.
Who's closer?
Well, he actually-
We should ask Jill.
I feel like she would maybe give you 75%
maybe that's the TikTok
we ask Jill what percentage
I have an idea can this be the next segment when I leave
Amir has to do one of the
dancing TikToks
you know how everybody dances
I don't know how to do the dance
well you watch it once then you have to do it

Ha-oon watches once
