Do not use Cologuard if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease and certain hereditary syndromes, or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer.

The Coligard test is available by prescription only. No, you're right on time actually. Was I really? Yeah, yeah. Okay.

Freedom! That time I felt like I was off. You were a little bit off but you ended. I thought it was trash. Freedom! Freedom! Oh no, Lord needs help. Stop! She's yelling, freedom!

Freedom! They say if you're in danger, don't yell help, yell freedom. Yes. That is true. Cause people are like, oh no, those guys are around? Did I smell my, so let's get out of here. I smell like's true. I don't know those guys are around Dirty old sponge he never gets dry. He's always under the sea. How often do you throw away your sponges with my scrub daddies? It's so rare

We should throw him away, cause he stinks like butt. But he's always under the sea, so, I mean, isn't it like if you dry out, but he's also not cleaning anything. If you're always in- So he's not taking on the filth. If you're always rolling in mud. Although he's technically cleaning anything

he comes into contact with. Are you saying the sea is mud? If you're always rolling in mud, you can't say you're never dirty because you're always rolling in it. Do you know what I'm saying? No. You fucking shut me down.

I think it makes sense. It makes sense. And I think that he stinks. Yeah. No, I think he has hygiene issues for sure. I think he smells bad. And you know under that little bikini? Mm-hmm.

Bikini? Is that what he's wearing? He famously wears pants. He lives in... I'm pretty famous there. It's in wears pants. He lives in... He lives in... Pretty famously. It's in his surname. In the pictures I've downloaded, he has on a bikini.

And they're saved to my phone. How about that his name is SpongeBob? Like it's one word. Yeah, what's up with that? Yeah, what's going on with that? Are there, are there sponge anyone else's? Like if there are, there are other sponges? What if we had to be person Paul or person Lauren?

Why you use me first? Why can't you use yourself as an example? Person Scott. All right, person Scott. See? Person Scott. It felt bad. It feels too humanizing.

Person Scott sweat shorts. I'm wearing sweat shorts. Sweats that have been turned into shorts. Were they long pants that you got? No, no, I bought them this way, dear. You know what? He also wears a square shirt and we don't talk about that. SpongeBob doesn't wear a shirt. He does, he has a little tie.

He's nude. Lauren, are you so naive that you believe that? I think he's nude. You think that's his skin? Yeah, you know, I wish I kind of could watch, kind of could watch the live Broadway performance of SpongeBob SquarePants. Why do you wish you kind of could do that?

Because I think I might not wanna watch it. You wanna watch Ariana Grande's Boyfriend? Exactly. I kinda wanna see what- And just see what he's all about. I wanna see what got her excited. SpongeBob. Wow. She, yeah, there's a whole big issue.

There's a whole drama, Paul. I won't share their business on this podcast. No, their business is their business. It is. Well, they're celebrities, so. But they were in something together, and then it took off. They're in Wicked together, right? Exactly.

And then boom. Oh, he's in the movie? And then he's also starring in SpongeBob, or was. Was he playing a monkey? He probably plays a lollipop guild member. You're part of it. Shut the fuck up. What is this coming from?

All you do is make fun of this guy who's in Wicked. They have been advertising Wicked for so long. They really have. Ah! Isn't that The Lion King? No, that's. Ah! Wicked is...

Ah! There we go. Ah! Oh, Defying Grampy. Like I just yelled. I wanted to do it too. But they did it on The Bachelor. Yeah.

They had a night where they were like, it was themed like Wicked. There was a yellow brick road and they were like... What? They were like, wow! And then there's like, coming soon, Wicked, and then they watched a fire. There was something with that. The Bachelorette and her boyfriend or something?

The date was like themed with like Wicked themes. Did they ever do like a terrible bosses theme? I wish they did. Meet the pillars? Terrible bosses? Horrible bosses. Oh, so sorry, how ridiculous of me, asshole. Those terrible bosses.

It's okay, Paul, everyone fucks up. Wow, asshole. Those terrible bosses. It's OK, Paul. Everyone fucks up. Wow. Thanks, man. Thank you. Hey, this is the freedom, by the way. I'm Scott. I'm Lauren. Did you guys have the best time in the UK, Scotland and England? We just got back from the UK and Ireland. I mean, Ireland, I said England.

But I said the UK, Scotland and England. Oh yeah. But Scotland is part of the UK. It certainly is. But Ireland is not part of the UK. No, this kingdom is no longer so united. It's tough. Was that evident?

It is tough. I feel bad for them sometimes. Yeah. You know? They should make up. What was the best thing you ate? Jesus. Well, I'm not talking about ass.

Well, we went to Sunday roast. It's not a rude question. What if we what if it was, though? I didn't take it as a rude question, but now I'm considering it. Well, you were like, you were just like, oh, what did I eat? It seemed like a hard question. Oh, a hard question. Yeah. We went to Sunday roast before we saw ABA Voyage.

We did have a lovely Sunday roast. That's that hologram thing. I heard it's incredible. Yeah, it really is. Arden said it was amazing. Yeah, it is. It's pretty crazy. Good job. Yeah.

Good job. Good job, Abba. Good job. Good job, Abba. Me job, nobody. Yeah, I say Abba. He's Abba, the dancing queen. You what?

She can do da. I say Abba. Jabba. It is Abba. No, it is. Yeah. I have heard it pronounced as Abba. I was corrected, because I used to say Abba. It is Abba. It is. I have heard it pronounced as Abba. I was corrected, because I used to say Abba.

Yeah. I was corrected by someone who is a music person. And they said, it's actually pronounced Abba. Was it the late Steve Albini? I believe so. And so I've then since said Abba, but I realized everyone else says Abba. Should we look this shit up?

I don't know. Because I wanna know. Because I feel like I want to say Abba, but I think it is Abba. I don't know. I mean, it's a made up word because it's a acronym of their names. But you know what?

It's also the name of a fish cannery in Sweden. That's right. How could I forget? It's a little pun. But wouldn't it be, like doesn't it seem like they would have a song where they say it? They don't. Like We Are Abba? Yeah, like it's like their entrance song. Here we come, Abba. Here we come. Okay, here we go. Here's the how to pronounce. So stay tuned. I don't ever believe this thing. Abba, but no, it's you wanna pronounce a clear R sound

also for the second A. Here are more videos on how to pronounce. That didn't help me. I don't think he's talking about the fans. It sounded like what I was saying though. Yeah, but I mean, it might be true, but I don't feel like- Who is this guy? Why should we trust him?

He's always doing these how to pronounce things. Do our own research. But why do we trust him? Yeah, I gotta mean, it might be true, but I don't feel like who is this guy? Why should we trust him? He's always doing these things, but why do we try? Yeah, I gotta do my own research. Yeah. Sorry, Julian. Mikkel. Yeah. Yeah. I don't. But it's a made up word, so who cares how sounded out? Break down the word ABBA into its individual. OK, people also ask, how do I pronounce ABBA? Sound it out. Break down the word Abba into its individual sounds, Ab, uh.

Say these sounds out loud, exaggerating them at first. Practice until you can consistently produce them clearly. It didn't help. Like the second part was what people had a problem with. Is it a bae? I thought he was like, put a something on it, like your abber. Like he was like, like some-

Well, he was saying like, obviously the first vowel is ah, but then you want to say bae. No, do it like the first vowel, abba. That's not true. None of that was obvious. Abba. A lot of people ask- Abba. A lot of people ask-. Abba. Abba. Abba.

I don't wanna read it like that. Is Abba Swedish or Spanish? Okay, people need to slow it down. People out there need to slow it down when it comes to Abba or Abba. Yeah. Maybe we should just say Abba or Abba every time we talk about the band.

Sure. Yeah. Do you guys agree? Why don't we say it backwards? Oh wait, here's how you pronounce it. Here's how you pronounce it in Swedish. In Swedish. Here we go. This is exciting.

So in Sweden we call it Abba. That's the name, how we pronounce it, is Abba, versus, and the rest of the world is Abba. It sounded weird how he said that. It honestly did. He was making fun of us. He was like, Abba, Abba. We don't say it like Abba.

We say it like Abba. We say it like Abba. So I would say either are correct. But he said, yeah, cause he said the rest of the world, but I do feel like the Swedish pronunciation should be what we're all going. It should be. Sure, but I mean, you know, the heckler's veto, popular vote rules.

Heckler's veto. Someone said that the other day. I never heard that. Is that Latin? The heckler's veto. Hecklum Vite? The heckler's veto. Heck-ill-um-vite? The heckler's veto in the discourse, a heckler's veto is a situation in which a party

who disagrees with a speaker's message is unable to unilaterally trigger events that result in the speaker being silenced. Great. For example, a heckler can disrupt a speech to the point where that speech is silenced. Fuck! Well, that is an example.

I was doing Latin on Duolingo for a hot minute. It was pretty fun. What do you know? They did Latin. I can't really say. It's not really a spoken language. Beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee beedee They taught Latin in my high school. And I always was like, what the hell is that? And nobody explained it and nobody, I would have actually loved it because I love root. I love root.

I love root. Steven, he's crap. Yeah, I love Steven. By the way, you saying what the hell reminded me that Emmy has been saying, what the heck? He's done it a lot lately. That's so cute. What the heck?

Guys, I got some bad news. Oh no. You remember how someone was trying to blackmail me for my masturbation? Oh yeah, this came up a couple of times in the UK. You got a few messages and we were all so worried. Oh it keeps coming up? It's gotten worse.

Oh no, Paul, what's going on? Because now they know my address. Whoa! And they have enclosed a picture. Oh this happened to my friend recently. That could maybe be my neighborhood. It's not my street, but I mean, it's it could be my neighborhood. It's very it's very small.

It's a very low res image. So when I zoom into it, it just becomes a painting. Yeah. Did you act like whoever that was that Trump sent a picture of his house to and say, do you remember that? What? He told a crazy story on the debate about like, first of all, he gets the person's name wrong and like a totally racist way where he's like, so I, so I sent Abdul the head of ISIS. A picture of his house. He's like, why are you sending me a picture of my house? I said, you'll find out. A picture of his house, he's like, why are you sending me a picture of my house?

I said, you'll find out. All right, the guy, here's what this person says. Paul F. Tompkins, and they spell my name right. Oh, good. And they say, I know that calling my real phone number or visiting my real address would be a effective way to reach you if you don't take action. Don't try to escape from this.

You've no idea what I'm capable of in Los Angeles. It's important you pay attention to this message right now. Take a moment to chill, breathe, and analyze it thoroughly. Because we're about to discuss a deal between you and me, and I ain't playing games. You do not know me, but I know everything about you. And right now you are wondering how, right? Well, you've been treading on thin ice with your browsing habits, clicking through those girly videos and clicking on links.

Why are they such porn shamers? I don't know. Stumbling up on some not so safe sites. I actually placed a malware on a porn website and you visited it to watch. You get my drift. Well, there must be millions of people with this if they placed the malware on the site. I would think so, on the site. Yeah.

And when you get busy watching our videos, our videos, it was a trap. I'm gonna get busy. I'm gonna get busy. Excuse me honey, I'm gonna go get busy tonight. Get busy, I mean me masturbating. I'm gonna get busy. Excuse me honey, I'm gonna go get busy tonight. Get busy, I mean me, masturbating. Right, right, right. Your system started out functioning as a RDP, remote protocol, which provided me total control

over your device. Stop. I can peep at everything on your screen, flick on your cam and mic, and you wouldn't have a clue. Oh, and I've got access to all your emails, contacts, and social media accounts too. Been keeping tabs on your pathetic life for a while now. It's simply your hard luck that I am aware of your blunder. I put in more time than I should have investigating into your data.

Sounds like it. Extracted quite a bit of juicy info from your system and I've seen it all. Yeah, yeah, I've got footage of you doing embarrassing things in your room. What? Nice setup, by the way. I then developed- Nice setup. That's a compliment.

This is the exact amount of my friend got. But that proves he's seen me. My setup is nice. Yeah. You have a bed, a dresser. I then developed videos and screenshots, where on one side of the screen, there's whatever garbage you were playing. And on on the other half it's someone jerking off.

Someone. Not you. Oh thank God it's not me. With simply a click I can send this garbage to every single one of your contacts. Send this garbage. Your confusion is clear but don't expect sympathy. Your confusion is clear. Wholeheartedly I am ready to wipe the slate clean. Wholeheartedly. And allow you to get on with your daily life and forget you ever existed. What? What? Forget you existed?

Jesus, I'm sorry. Although there is something appealing about that. Yeah, that sounds nice. I will present you two options. First choice is to ignore my email. Let me tell you what will happen if you opt this option. Your video will get sent to all your contacts. The video is straight fire

and I can't even fathom the embarrassment you'll endure when your colleagues, friends and fam see it. But hey, that's life, ain't it? Don't be playing the victim here. It's not really life actually. Wiser second option is to pay me. Wiser. And be confidential about it. How much are they asking for now? Because before it was one bitcoin or one point five bitcoin? We'll call it my keep the secret tip. Let's discuss

what happens if you go with this path. Your secret remains your secret. I will wipe everything clean once you come through with the payment. You'll make the payment via Bitcoin only. Pay attention! I'm telling you straight. We gotta, oh this is in quotes, we gotta make a deal. I want you to know I'm coming I'm coming at you with good intentions. I think anyone hates it if somebody's coming at you. I will keep my end of the bargain. Transfer amount $1,950. Specific.

Then the Bitcoin address. Just under two. In Bitcoin? Because that's, okay, so I looked up how much a Bitcoin is. It's almost 60 grand right now. So that would be like 1 1⁄30th of a Bitcoin. How are you, like, can you buy 1⁄30th of a Bitcoin? I don't know.

I gotta figure this out. This is where this guy needs to like streamline everything and just send. He does, but you need to figure this out because he's probably not going to write back if you ask him that question. Here's what sucks. I'm now going to have to involve my accountant in this. Once you pay up, you'll sleep like a baby. I keep my word.

Oh, and then important. You now have one day in order to sort this out. I will only accept Bitcoins. I have a specific pixel in this message. And at this moment, I know that you have read through this email. This is a PDF, by the way. They have a pixel in the PDF

that shows that you've read that far. Yeah. That's incredible. This guy knows what he's doing. My assistant will catch that Bitcoin payment and wipe out all the dirt I got on you. Don't even think about replying to this or negotiating. It's pointless. The email and wallet are custom made for you. Untraceable.

If I catch that you've shared or discussed this email with anyone else. Oops. The video will instantly start getting sent to your contacts. OK, so listeners, please don't tell anyone that I read this. If I receive it, I will delete it immediately. Yeah. And don't even think about turning off your phone or resetting it to factory settings. It's pointless. I don't make mistakes, Paul F.

Beautiful neighborhood, by the way. Oh, be ashamed if anything happened to it. Honestly, those online tips about covering your camera aren't as useless as they seem. I am waiting for my payment. Wow. Okay, psycho. Yeah, but he's got me.

Super long. And the question is, how many people do you think have sent the money? Yeah. Oh, that's so sad to think about. It's so sad. It's gotta sorta work, cause this is a scam that's been around for so long.

So some people must. People are doing it. People are doing it. Well, I've gotten this message from three different accounts now. And it's like, does it actually work? Or is it just that people are like, oh, here's the thing I could try. OK, there is this podcast scam that I may have sent to you

at some point. People email comedians and actors and whatever to be on a podcast with some celebrity and to be live streamed on Facebook and to be a paid appearance, which is not uncommon. I've had experience, I'm gonna talk about this. And people have been- I pay you $50,000 every episode of Freedom.

I've done it, it's great. People have been scammed by this who I know who are smart people. And then I started getting the emails and then also a few people I know were posting about it and sharing the email of what it was and to like spread the word. And then once you like read it carefully, it's like the most obvious scam email. Plus it's all written in different sizes and bolded and like weird and like, but the first

time around I could see it being casual sort of like, oh sure, it's this thing. I'll just do this. Great. Whatever. And like just doing it. But so I think with that, because it's a threat, a lot of people are probably sending the money somehow. But the Bitcoin thing, Bitcoin part of it is too complicated. It does seem hard. If it was like a Zelle or a Venmo situation. Apple gift cards is what they usually do. Why do they want Bitcoin? That's so crazy.

Why do they want Apple gift cards? I think gift cards are usually easy to like resell. They're untraceable. Oh. And then they're easy to like turn into cash or whatever. I think that's one of the cool things about Apple gift cards. Yeah, they're untraceable. I think that's the thing. If you're ever out there and people are saying like, pay me an Apple gift cards,

like that should raise your sort of senses of like, oh, is this a scam? What is happening right now? Because- This seems psychotic. I don't want payment in that. Apple, even on their website are like, if anyone asks you to pay anything in Apple gift cards, this is a scam.

Well, it's a crazy way to get money. I'm gonna buy a house dirt cheap. It just costs Apple gift cards. My family friend was being scammed by someone pretending to be my aunt and asking for Apple gift cards. And he had to asking for Apple gift cards and he had a very fun conversation with them. My mother-in-law got a lot of money. He was passing it on to my family and I shared that someone I knew had been scammed. It was like it could be happening to older people.

I actually feel like she's getting scammed again. No! We're just kind of like, watch out because she's like talking to some bachelor on WhatsApp who wants to meet or something like that. And it's like, fuck. If she's on 90 Day Fiancé, I'm gonna watch it. I would watch that, yeah. If her mom was on 90 Day Fiancé, absolutely.

What can you do? I mean, I think, I mean, on that show, for example, they have people where that's happening and the kids are going like, please stop talking to this person. It's obviously like they're catfishing you or they're scamming you or they're going to use you. Even if they do show up,

like they're just trying to get your money. And the people have a really hard time. There was one woman who never met the guy, but she was so, she believed so much that they had this really relationship and her kids who were adults kept being like, this isn't real. And she just would not believe them. And then eventually it fell apart.

But it's like, I mean, it's so sad. Cause also people want connection. It's a- I don't. And then I told you that my mom got scammed by like clicking on a website where a pop-up thing popped up and it like goes, and your computer is frozen, call this number. And then she called it and then they got money out of her. And they were like, okay, click on this.

They were like telling her what to type into the computer, which then gave them access to it and all this kind of stuff. And then I was like, mom, just take it to the computer store and they'll get rid of it. Well, and this is what happened with the Facebook thing that it was the people got on a zoom with the hackers.

What? To have a meeting before the Facebook live or whatever. And then the hacker wouldn't show their face. And then they somehow were in the Facebook account of the, like they kept asking my friend to share her screen and she said no, because she was like, that seems weird. Something is weird about this. And then she didn't do it but they still somehow got into her Facebook page and like took it over. So I don't I'm like I

don't even know how it works and I don't want to know how it works but I don't want to be a part of it. I only want to know how it works in order to do it. Yeah. Would you do it to us first? I would try. What would you try to get from us? Bitcoin? Probably Bitcoin to pay off this guy who's seen a jerk off so many times. All right, we have to see a break. Nice set up by the way. We'll be right back. Hey you need a boost kid? Well, listening on Audible can be the everyday boost that you need.

That's N-O-. And we're back. And guys, my phone has been, I updated to the new iOS system and it has been frozen on 1% left for hours. This is very sad. I've restarted it and it's the same thing.

So this happened in the morning. I woke up and my phone was dead. I realized like how much of just everyday life I'm dependent on it. I had no idea what time it was because we don't have clocks in the house. So I had to like kind of roll. There's no clocks in the bedroom or anything. So I had to like, I was like,

I think it's morning, because the sun was out, but I was like, you know, I don't. That's weird, you could have slept really late, you have no idea. Yeah, so I like kind of went downstairs and opened a computer, I was like, oh, okay. What about the microwave? There, no.

No clock on a microwave? I mean, we don't even bother to set it, because it's like. No clock on the stove? I love having a clock in every room. I really do too. Nice. Yes. I love to just glance. Okay. That's what time we have in our bedroom. We have two clocks. It takes up so much space. I was thinking about that of like how you used to have to have a clock in every room and now you don't. And it's great. Yeah. But you don't like, you don't have like a I love when there's a problem solved for you. That is not a problem for anyone else.

Well it's like. You're like, well then here are them clocks. I'm going to have seven clocks in this house? Jesus Christ. I don't feel like a clock takes up a lot of room. I don't think so either. And I actually really like a clock. How big were your clocks previously? Okay, so I used to have the atomic clock.

You had that? Yeah, my parents bought it for me for a gift for Christmas. And that's the one that sets to the... Atomic clock. Atomic clock in Colorado or whatever. What does the atomic clock mean? That's like the truest time or something? Oh yeah, it's like it keeps...

It doesn't make any sense. From the core of the earth it's 215. I, you know what I, in my head, so it's been quite a long time since I owned it. What time is it down there? It's been quite a long time since I owned it. What time is it down there? It's been quite a long time since I owned it, but I feel like it has something to do with like a pendulum. What is that clock that they have in like Union,

right by Union Square, that's like the, it's a big digital clock, but I think it's counting down something. Oh, it's not the smoking deaths, is it? Probably, probably, yeah. Okay, so atomic clocks combine a quartz crystal oscillator. Thank God. With an ensemble of atoms to achieve greater stability.

An ensemble of atoms. That's right, so the atomic clock in the US is in Boulder, Colorado. That meant nothing to me, an ensemble of atoms. Why an ensemble, a tableau. And it's got- I mean, there's atoms. An ensemble of atoms. Why an ensemble? A tableau. And it's got- I mean, there's atoms in every part of it. Atoms are atoms, and everything is atoms. I mean, this is what it looks like. So I'm not-

I can't parse that sentence at all. That's too far off. Stunning. It's gorgeous. It's gorgeous. It's got an hourglass figure. Could you read it again? Yeah. Atomic clocks combine a quartz crystal oscillator.

Okay. I guess I know what an oscillator is. Yeah. I think don't we have oscillators in our ears? Ew. With an ensemble of atoms. That's where I get lost. It's confusing. Yeah. It's confusing these days.

Hey, put extra atoms in this oscillator. So wait, your phone didn't work, then what else did you miss from not having your phone? The clock. Well, I think that some texts only come through to the phone and not to the computer. That is true. There's some weirdness with that.

So I don't know why that is. Maybe it's the ones that are not on an iPhone themselves or something. Yes, when we were in overseas and I would get back on cellular, then all of a sudden I would have a million Donald Harris texts. Great.

So only those were coming through like SMS style or something. Exactly. So I still don't know if I have any of those, but then, you know, there was stuff like turning the alarm off. Right. Normally I do that every morning, like from bed. I'll just like turn

off the alarm or whatever. This time I had to do it. I had to do it. I opened the doors for the dogs and the alarm went off and I had to go do it manually. And then letting you guys into this door over here. Usually I can do that from my phone. I had to like go outside and. Wow. Are you okay? Yeah. But your calves hurt? Yeah. Wow. Are you okay? Yeah, I'm all right. But your calves hurt? Yeah. They look so tight.

If I want to turn off the alarm, I have to climb up on the roof. I have to throw rocks at it. I don't throw rocks at it anymore. It's a big lever that I have to pull and then I have to warn all the neighbors. Right. Because it's really loud. The noise that it makes going off is louder than the alarm itself. Everybody get ready, I'm about to do it.

Also the temperature. You control the temperature with your phone? Yes! Of the world? Of the world, yes. Oh. Feeling a little hot, Paul? Yeah.

We control the temperature on our phones. We use the atomic clock to see what time it is. When we were getting a new, we had to get a new HVAC system installed in our. And that stands for what? Host. Hey, very almost cold. And that was a big drag. But we got, the system we got now is Ecobee.

That sounds fake. It's real. You're being scammed Paul. Ecobee, that's how the guy's watching you. Through Ecobee? But the guy, the guy who we, the rep or the sales rep or whatever that we were talking to, was like such an old fashioned salesman type dude.

And we were calling him our roommate because he was there for such a long time. Just talking and talking and talking. He's telling stories about his brother-in-law and all this shit. It was honestly- It was like Glenn Gary when Chuck Lemon walks in today. It was like, oh well, of course.

It was delightful. Oh, she was telling me this story. Isn't it funny when you have someone in your home who is just random and they're just talking and you're like, you're just in my house. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I don't know when you leave. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But I really was, I found it very entertaining. And then Janie had been researching the types of thermostats or whatever we could get, whatever it was. Doing her own research. She was doing her own research. Women in STEM. That's right. She's one of them.

She was stemming and she said, she said, there's this, this, and then there's this one called Ecobee and the guy went, Ecobee all day. And that has stuck in my head forever. Ecobee all day. Ecobee, we want you to sponsor us. He loves that one. Sponsor us Ecobee. He loves it. And is it Ecobee or Echobee? Is it E-C-O-B-E-E?

Okay, cause I was picturing I-K-O-B, I was picturing a crazy word. Well that same guy who pronounced Abba pronounced it for us. He probably would, he probably would pronounce it Abba. He's like, it's pretty obvious. That's the only word he knows. Obviously the beginning is Ab, in the last half you would think is Bee and it's Ba.

It's ugh. I had a dream last night, by the way. I dreamed a dream. Of time gone by. No, I dreamed that the government came out and they said, The government's gay? Oh my God, this is so helpful. This is gonna change a lot of things.

The entire government. They're changing all.govvs to dot gays. We should have more fun with the dots by the way. We should! Dots should have more fun. They should be like better than dots like what else could they be? Dot gay is a great domain. Dot gay, dot gay. I thought you meant the actual dots themselves.

It should become a gay. Glitter. Exclamation point com. Dot chocolate. They came out and they said. Dot choc. Guys we. My email address.

It's a little sweetie at gmail dot choc. They said we got fruits wrong. The only one we got right was orange because it's orange and that's why we named it that. So we're naming all other fruits by their color. So they're like bananas are now yellows. We got fruits wrong. They like that orange is just orange.

Yes. They're like bananas are yellows, apples are reds. Strawberries? This is where it sort of fell apart. Exactly. Oranges really are like there's so few other ones that I can think of. There's those little berries that grow on a certain type of tree or bush that I remember

we were told when we were kids, they were poisonous. But they were like little tiny orange berries. Yeah. That's the only one I can think of. Why have stuff growing in the neighborhood if it's poisonous? Those might still, well, you know, actually, Alicia Silverstone.

And I wish our gay government would do something about it. Alicia Silverstone posted eating a berry off a bush. And then everyone was like, that's poisonous. And then she disappeared for days. Yeah, I mean, I think she's fine, but it was kind of interesting. I mean, if she had the presence of mind to see all those responses and say,

I'm gonna hide for a few days and make people think I'm dead. I would honestly give it up for her. It's pretty funny. Yeah, pretty funny. She was very fun on bajillion. She did a great job. And I met her at the Veil Film Festival in December. And you were all wearing veils?

Yes, it was a film festival about brides. And it was in church. Yes. It was at the seventh veil. Yes. It was a film festival about brides. And it was in church. Yes. It was set at the seventh fail. Yes. It was wonderful. Girls, girls, girls, girls, girls, girls, girls.

From the body shop to the other place. You know the songs about stripping clubs. Makes a lot of sense to me. Now that you say it. It's a celebration of girls, girls, girls. Anyway, should I ask for a refund? Wait, did you wake up in a cold sweat? Yes. Oh my god.

Have you Googled the phone issue? Cool up, what is this? You hold up an apple. I've Googled it and they say restart it, which I've done, and then they're like, if you're still having trouble, go into the genius bar. Go into the hell. Hey Einstein. Where they're smarter than you.

Hi Einstein, fix my dumb phone. How about one thing, maybe? Yeah, how about it? Just because I don't know about iPhones doesn't mean I'm not a genius. Just because I don't know about iPhones doesn't mean I'm not a genius. Okay, give me a little credit.

Give me a little credit, iPhone. It's a little bit. It's a little bit. It's a little bit. I have an earbud issue. Okay. Where one of my earbuds is staticky and I try all the tips and tricks. I think it's trash. You think it's trash? And I throw it in the trash?

Yeah. But they're expensive. Do I go to Genius Bar and say fix? How do you feel about getting the ones with the cord again? Oh, I don't like it. I don't think I can go back to cord. Sometimes I think it could be fun because I think when they die, it's so annoying.

It's annoying. It is annoying when they die, but the cord I think annoyed me more regularly. That's true, it always got tangled. When it dies, it annoys you once. Yeah. Yeah. And then you just have to use your brain

and think about stuff. Raw dog it. Yeah. Did you see, no, so the raw dogging thing, people were, there was a trend of- We were trying to do it on the plane. But so let's talk about this because people were saying, who was, you were fucking-

Not me. You don't even know what I'm talking about. Yes I do. I'm kidding. No, the raw dogging thing was like people on airplanes, not using headphones, not watching a movie and just hanging out. Now, then they-

Be alone with their thoughts. But then people were not peeing, not getting up. Yes. I'm like, what are you, you can't eat? What are you talking about? Somebody had to tell them, no, you have to eat and drink water and go to the bathroom. You still be a normal person.

You're just not ingesting media. That's not raw doggie. You're doing something weird and dangerous. But I think it's so nice sometimes when things don't work and you have to just raw dog life. That's true. That is very true. Well, we were just in the UK.

And I get fairly motion sick on things, where I get vertigo and stuff like that. And you're talking any kind of thing. Any kind of thing. Anything I'm ever on. You could stand on top of a bucket. Yeah. This chair you're in right now?

So I, even on the trains, I was like, I can't stomach the thought of putting on headphones right now because it'll make my ears fucked up. So I had to just kind of sit there and raw dog the trips. Were you sitting backwards as well? There was one particular train trip where I sat backwards because Brett just took the other seat and I didn't want to say it.

Aw. I didn't want to say it. Way to go, Brett. Way to go. Ask somebody. He'll hear this now. We all knew that Scott famously had problems. But yeah, I had to just sit there and kind of rawdog

and just be alone with my thoughts. Well. And it's terrifying. There was a wonderful moment where Scott did have some headphones and he started playing a movie. I started playing Alien Resurrection. But the headphones were not quite connected.

From the middle, from the middle, by the way. I had watched like an hour the night before. Not quite connected. Here's what we all get to hear out of nowhere. He's a fucking ammo! And I'm sitting there going like, why is it so low? And everyone around me on the train is laughing. Well, they're laughing and everyone else is annoyed at me.

We had a wonderful time. It said it was connected. That was the other part. It was funny to hear people with accents talking on the phone, like doing business and stuff, and they're constantly apologizing for being on the train and they might go into a tunnel. Like I heard that so many times.

People like trying to spin it out as quickly as possible. Like, I'm going through the tunnel, so you might lose me. People with accents too, it's like, how important can your business be? Yeah, they're goofy. You sound like somebody from a movie. They're silly.

Yeah. They can't be talking serious. You're Padding goofy. No, you sound like somebody from a movie. They're silly. Can't be talking serious. You're Paddington. We did see Paddington on the train. We went through Paddington station. I was like, wow. And he was there. He was waiting?

Yeah, he was waiting for the train. He got on and he said, I know, I know. A little on the nose. Yeah. And then he gave everyone marmalade sandwiches. Oh, I don't want one of those. I threw one right in the trash right in front of me. Yeah, I would throw it up.

You want to take a bite? I was like, can I have another one? I don't want- And he gave me another one right in the trash right in front of me. Yeah, I would throw it out. You wouldn't make a bite? I was like, can I have another one? I don't want. Can you get me another one, I think. What else do you got? There's too much marmalade in them, the way he makes them. Yeah.

Oh, you think he overdoes it with the marmalade? And honestly, a bear making my food doesn't sound very hygienic. Teeth, I mean, I've seen him brush his teeth. He does do that, but he also uses it in his ears. Yeah. A lot of cross-contamination. That's tough.

Do you think the fur on the hands is a problem? I just think some debris might be stuck within the ears. Yeah. What is a lot of cross contamination? Do you think the fur on the hands is a problem? I just think some debris might be stuck within the paw. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Plus all the saliva. Don't they use their own saliva to clean themselves? Right. Although I've seen Patty to take a bath when I hacked into his software. Oh, yeah. And you extorted that bitcoin.

Nice setup, by the way. Yeah. That's hot. Just because you set up like a picture of London. Yeah, I see your neighborhood. So wait, what'd you eat? Oh, we went to Sunday roast. Which was delicious. Which was very nice. We had a cross section of pork, beef, and some had chicken. Some had chicken. Some gave all. Yes, and we had a very nice meal there. And did we have another meal together? I feel, man, I'm trying to remember.

We were at different Moxie's for a week straight. Yeah. Moxie hotels. Okay. They all look exactly the same and our rooms were almost always exactly the same with one tiny difference. And they all smell the same.

That's so weird, there's like no change. And so the whole trip kind of runs together for me because we were just in that Moxie and then all bars would close after our show and so the Moxies were the only things open. So we like every night we were at the Moxie. The first night we're in Glasgow and we get done with the show and we get back to the hotel

and we're like, maybe the, is the hotel bar open? And so we timidly go up and go like, are you guys open? There's like a couple of guys sitting there and we're like, okay, and the dude just said the bar is open for 24 hours. And we laughed in his face like, that's insane. Why is it open for 24 hours? Yeah. But we made use of that for sure. That's insane. Yeah. Why is it over for 24 hours? Yeah. But we made use of that for sure.

That's great. Yeah. And so, yeah, every Moxie kind of is the exact same setup. Except in Ireland, that bar closes early. That's right. It closed at midnight. That's right. So we had to like rush back to it to get one drink quarter in. The first night in Dublin, we got back and we're like, all right, let's get a drink at the Mo boxy. And this place was closed. Like I haven't seen a place closed before.

Like every stick of furniture stacked up. Like when there's like a gunfight duel. The brightest. Everyone shuts their windows. Yeah. And we still ask like, are you guys going to drink? No. Do you guys learn new things about each other? You know, this far into your friendship? I feel like I learn less things. Yeah, I start forgetting things about Paul.

What's your middle initial? Oh, fuck, I don't remember now. Does it stand for fuck? Does what? F. What's that? Paul Fuck Tompkins. What's an F? A, B, C, D, E. EBA.

Is it EBA or EBA? Is it EBA or EBA? It's eBay. ABA. ABA. ABA. I don't know. Money, money, money. I don't know if we learned anything we didn't know before.

I know. We've been traveling together a lot. Yeah, that's kind of what I'm wondering. Is there any... I will say, sometimes you were talking about your home life and... We did do a lot of that, a lot of, I will say, I, so my- Sometimes you were talking about your home life and- We did do a lot of that, a lot of, because everyone was in a couple.

And so there was a lot of discussion of how things are in your home. Oh, I love that. With like little things. Yeah, it was fun. Yeah, it was really fun. Well, also you were talking about your growing up life a lot. Oh, that shit.

And even if I may have heard it, you know, like- Still pretty good. Just being reminded of it. And how was your birthday? My birthday was really wonderful. Was it really fun? You had a show. We had a show and I was myself on the show instead of the character.

Whoa! Yeah, yeah. That was, that was, that was really fun to do. I got weirdly nervous right before the show started. Yeah, I understand that. I was like, I've never done this before on a live show. I kind of was like, oh, I wonder what we're gonna talk about. And then it was so easy.

Somehow we talked about the Wizard of Oz and what happened to, I don't remember. Paul was talking about a door theater whack back. That's right. That's great. Afterwards, so these guys got me a little gift. They got me a lovely car that they all signed and wrote a little nice message, which was very touching.

I really appreciate it. I was looking into getting a cake and then you told a story about a show where someone wanted to be sung Happy Birthday to and you thought it was terrible. And I immediately said, okay, I'm going to abandon those plans. I do not like being sung to with the happy birthday song.

Yeah. And the audience in Manchester, it was the very first thing that happened. Scott said it was my birthday and then the audience immediately started singing. I didn't want them to. He did not instigate it. They, as one, started doing it.

I mean, it's awkward. It just happened to me as well. My birthday also passed recently. It's too long. It's too long. You gotta sit there and just be like, uh-huh, uh-huh. It doesn't happened to me as well. My birthday also passed recently. It's too long. You gotta sit there and just be like, uh-huh, uh-huh. It doesn't need to be that long. You could do a jaunty version of it. Or just go into,

Happy birthday dear Paul, happy birthday to you at the end. And then you're there. Because nobody goes, for he's a jolly good fellow. That's like sprightly. It's like we're all trying to get everyone on the same page with it.

And we're so slow. Don't bother. I know. It should be happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you.

Or do the black version as Echo says. Happy birthday to you. I always put you down my whole life. Happy birthday. That's why I call me voicemail. That's better. That's way better. It's really fun.

But. Okay, so then afterwards we were like, you know, we're, let's go out and we'll have a drink. But then the problem is we're back in London where the plate, not in London, in Manchester, we're back in England where the places that are still open after a certain time, you don't want to go there. So we went to a place that did have like a sort of back room. Our nice promoter who by the way. Great, oh yeah Michael.

Michael from eight years ago. Really? Yes. Oh no, you weren't there, sorry. I just went with it. I had no memory of that. I was like, oh that's right, Lauren wasn't there. But I was going.

You were in Australia. I was like, wow Michael, I didn't want to be rude. No, we have the same for two of the shows. We have the same promoter that took us to every show last year. He's a terrific guy. Eight years ago, great guy. He set up a nice bar. He had a friend out there scouting tables for us

and stuff like that. So we sat there and we had a couple drinks. Then we went back to the first non-Moxie hotel of the trip. Wow, refreshing. Which we should have just gone to right after the show because the bar was still open and we got food. Right. And it was fucking great. We had a lovely time. It was a very nice birthday. We got pizza pie. which we should have just gone to right after the show because the bar was still open and we got food. And it was fucking great.

We had a lovely time. It was a very nice birthday. We got pizza pie. I'm so happy for you. Yeah, it was really nice. It was fun to do a show. I felt very loved and very fortunate. That's how I felt on my birthday actually,

not to make it about me, but I did have the best birthday of my life. What did you do on your birthday? Because we missed it, we were gone, right? You were gone. And I actually just had one of the most peaceful, nice birthdays that I've had. I didn't cry.

Like, you know, sometimes you just cry because it's your birthday and you're like, what? Yeah. I think a lot of women relate to that. Sure. But I was working, I don't know if I can say what job it was, but I was working with a live studio audience and then they surprised me.

This is the new Star Wars? They have, it's multi- They're finally adding an audience. It's a multi- Yeah. They surprised me with flowers and singing and stuff and? They're finally adding an audience. It's a multi-game. Yeah. They surprised me with flowers and singing and stuff and it was very nice. That's very nice.

And then the next night I had dinner with some girlfriends, just a small little dinner, but it was just a great group and we just had a nice time. Wonderful. It was lovely. It's wonderful. And I cried and I was just like, I'm so happy. But not for the usual reasons.

No, I was just, honestly, they asked me, they asked me a peach in a pit of the year, which is a phrase I never heard, but it's like a rosy thorn. I think I got it. Yeah. And I didn't have a pit. I was like, you know, I just feel like,

I mean, yeah, there's stuff that was hard, but like, it was just a really good year. Nice. And I'm really happy. Very nice. What about labor? That's also joyous, you know? Is it?

Yeah, ultimately. I gotta do it. Well, ultimately, you mean the birth. But actually, I was wistfully thinking about it today. I've been putting it in your head. That's the thing that mothers say is like, they kind of miss it when it's done. It's really weird.

I kind of wish I could do it over and over again. It's really weird. That's wild. It makes no sense. That's wild. Wow. Wow. But yeah, I'm so happy your birthday was great

and my birthday was great. And happy your birthday was great. Crushing September. Well guys, you know what else is great? We have to take a break. I love it. More than birthdays. We my birthday was great. I'm happy your birthday was great. Crushing September. Well guys, you know what else is great? We have to take a break. I love it. More than birthdays.

Yeah. We'll be right back. I said it by the way. Pfft. This show is sponsored by BetterHelp. Do you ever feel like you're not quite being yourself? Like you're putting on some kind of mask. That's right.

The American Cancer Society recommends that if you are at average risk, you should begin screening for colon cancer at age 45, no matter your race, ethnicity or gender. And with the Cologuard test, you can actually screen for colon cancer at age 45, no matter your race, ethnicity, or gender. And with the Cologuard test, you can actually screen for colon cancer in the privacy of your own home.

That's right, no prep, no procedure, no scheduling hassles. The Cologuard test is a non-invasive, effective, and affordable prescription use-at-home colon cancer screening test that looks for both abnormal DNA and blood in your stool. Colon cancer screening is a crucial step in early detection because many people with early stage colon cancer

have no symptoms. While a lifestyle of exercise and a healthy diet decreases the risk of colon cancer, it is a common misconception that it means you're at low or no risk. In actuality, no one is at low risk for colon cancer. Even with no family or personal history, you are still considered average risk.

With most insured patients paying $0 for this easy to use at home test that requires no need to take time off work for prep or procedures, what more are you waiting for? It's time to put your health first. So if you're 45 or older and at average risk, ask your health care provider about screening for colon cancer with the Coligard test. You can also request a Coligard prescription today at coligard.com slash podcast. Do not use Coligard if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease and certain

hereditary syndromes, or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer. False positive and negative results may occur. Any positive results should be followed by a colonoscopy. Not a replacement for colonoscopy in high-risk patients. The coliGuard test is available by prescription only. And we're back! Yeah, we are and you know what time it is.

It's time for a buster. That's time, it's AKAs. I like everyone to have all of the knowledge. Yeah.

Do you like to be called your nicknames? Sure, go ahead. It is a three-cher. Buttmunch. Buttmunch McGo. DongTwister2000. Are these screen names? I think so.

We're going to play- He's always aiming. We're going to play a Buster called Carnelli, which we haven't done in quite a while. Here's what happens. Somebody comes up with a title, title of a TV show, of a movie, of a song even. Or of a person. King. Well, and then the person to their right has to say a new title using the last word from the previous So counterclockwise? If you wish.

K. K. Sounds good to me. And that's what we call Carnelli and we're about to play it in three, two, one. Who goes first? Lauren. Jurassic Park. Counterclockwise Paul.

Jurassic Park. And what do we do? Jurassic Park. Counterclockwise, Paul. Jurassic Park. And what do we do? This is hard. I should have said different, Jurassic World. Were you embarrassed to say that because you were in it? Yeah, and I want to just be reading my resume. Thank you.

I'm going to say World Party. So it really is just like a new thing with whatever the last word is. Is that what it is? OK, title, but that's part party in the USA. USA. I mean. Or you can do a good do. I can just do A. Or America.

No, like A, A something. Oh, A. Stop staring at me. Okay, we're going to turn around. I'm not going to look at you, okay? Akuna Matata. Akuna matata. A kuna matata. A kuna matata.

A brave new world. There, sure. I don't know what that is, but. We're back to world. I think brave new world. A wrinkle in time. There we go. Time after time. There we go. Ah! Time after time.

Oh, time bandits. Bandits. I mean, there is a movie called Bandits. Bandits. It's a wonderful life. Oh. Life stinks. Stinks. I mean, stinks.

Stinks. Can you think of anything with stinks? Basic instinct. Basic instincts. Stinks are basic. Basic instincts. Should we try this again? I think there's something we're doing wrong. I think there, well, I wonder if we should limit it to a specific genre of thing.

So if we say movies. Oh, you'd make it even harder? Or if we say songs. Well, it might make it easier. No, because I think there's fewer crazy words maybe coming in too. Yes, because you might not, your mind. So stinks is a crazy word. It's crazy that you remember that movie.

Why? It's crazy and you should be locked up. I never saw it. But I remember it. That's even crazy. Okay. Lock him up. Lock him up. Lock him up.

Okay. Let's try it again. This time it's all movies. Hitchcock movies. But it's, now we're sure it's not the last letter. We are sure it's not the last letter. That's celebrity hunt. Oh, I wanna play that. So this is a creature.

Also known as the buster, also known as us trying to figure out the rules of whatever we're doing. The rules are right there. I will read exactly what is written. Okay. Okay. Cause I know people like to act like we're getting all crazy with how we play.

It's stupid. That's another way of saying it. That's another way of saying it. Paul is swiping up on his phone as we speak. Here we go. He's now searching. Carnelli. Do you miss that?

Someone points at a... I wish I could swipe. I'm not doing this Robin and dude. Someone points at a player and says a title. The person on their right has to say a new title using the last word From the previous person's title. Yeah, great. That's it. So any title would be stinks Or stink I think okay, how about if you can't think of a word Ink spots you can take the last letter, but you shouldn't that's the last resort

last resort. Last resort. I think also part of the game is to keep it going. So you want to set the other person up. Right. That's why I'm trying to think of a, I could only think of one thing that started with life. I'm now have to think of how the other person respond to it. How about this? I got one. Fellows. I love that. I'm Brian Fellows. I love that. I love Brian Fellows. The Truman Show. Um, just movies. See, it's harder now. What if it's just anything? Just anything. Oh, that's interesting. Yeah.

Yeah. If it was just anything, you could probably play it. Showtime. Okay. Time Bandit. Stop. No. Time.

Time. Time. Time. Time. What is time? What is it? That's an interesting thing. What is time?

I use an atomic clock. What is time? Time. Time. Time. Time. What is time? What is it? That's the interesting thing. What is time? I use an atomic clock. What is time? Time person. This game sucks.

Time. I don't think we've ever had this heart of a time playing this game. Heart of a time. I don't think so either. Playing this game. Time cop. Time cop. Time cop.

Time cop. Time cop. Time cop. Time cop. Time cop. Time cop. Time cop. Time. I don't think we've ever had this heart of a time playing this game. Heart of a time. I don't think so either. Playing this game. Time cop.

Time cop. Time cop. What if we don't have to go in order and it's just like if somebody has that. Time cop. Yes. Time cop. Thank you. Time cop.

Time cop. Okay. Cop and a half. I was just going to say that. Half pipe. Pipe dream. What is that? Dream a little dream. It's a thing. that. Half pipe. Pipe dream. What is that?

Dream a little dream. It's a thing, a half pipe is a thing. It is a thing. We changed it to just things. Oh, now it's not even titled anything. Oh, okay. All right, so what's the last one? The last one was-

Dream a little dream of me. Dream a little dream. Dream a little dream. Dream time. Time. Dits. Bandits. Crash bandicoot. Crash bandits coot. Bandicoot flavors. Dits a wonderful life. Life. Don't you say it? Bandits. It's, it's giving bandits.

It's Monty Python's flying circus. Circus, circus. Circus do circus, circus, do Sula us, comma, this is isn't she lovely. Lovely day, isn't it? It the clown. Clown the it down to clown, clown down to Clouton Abbey. Abby Jacobson. Jacobs, Jacobs and Jacobs, Jacobs. So it's really it's any part of the word you want to say. OK, son of man.

Man son, comma, Charles. Charles and charge. Charge it to my credit card. It's almost a portmanteau. Card me so I feel young. Young and the restless. Restless heart. Heart bandits.

Oh, this is a good title though. I know you're joking. That is a good title. The Heart Bandits? The Heart Bandits or Heart Bandits? I guess yeah, Heart Bandits. Heart Bandits. Heart Bandits is softer. Why don't they should expand the Bandits universe to more things than just time.

Exactly. That's my big takeaway from this game. Space Bandits. Yes. That hasn't been done? No. It feels like it has. Where they go through space? Should I just look up space bandits?

I don't know, it just sounds like something, doesn't it? Yeah, you should. You should. I know there's ice pirates. Those ice pirates. Which was set in space. Space bandits is a, oh, it is. Well, it's a Mark Miller comic. Fuck! That I own, actually.

So I should have, you know. Shit! Shit! God damn it! But what about Heart Bandits? Let's look it up. Look it up, man, look it up. The Heart Bandits, world's best marriage proposal planners. Theheartbandits.com. Just ask your...

Just ask them. Proposal planners? Just ask, just say like... How much you wanna bet it's all like, if we consider it a flash mob? I was gonna say flash mob. Yeah, I know. They have marriage proposal packages. I always thought that show where they would propose to people with like flash mobs.

It was like a reality thing. It was so horrible because the person is so unprepared and they're on tv and the most the most is happening around them and they sometimes get put into a wedding dress and they're I think that was part of it they they sometimes get put into a wedding dress. And I think that was part of it. They had to be put into a wedding dress and then get married right then. What? No. It was like flash wedding or something crazy. Absolutely not.

And like their whole family was there. I hate that. Absolutely not. By the way, absolutely. By the way, they have them divided by cities. So I have Los Angeles, they have downtown rooftop proposal, marry me marquee lights proposal, this is on the beach.

Egh. Romantic beach proposal, custom design proposal. No. Custom design? No, look, if you wanna do that, God love you. If you're both into that sort of thing, then great. Yes. But you better both be into it.

Yeah. Yes. Let's play a quick round of celebrity hunt and then we'll be done. I'm gonna start with Natalie Imbruglia. I forget how this is played. The last letter of the name before you name a celebrity with that letter and then we say hunt between it. Natalie Imbruglia. Hunt.

I got the instructions and we're the next ones. Oh my God. The instructions. From HagClaims8.

Did the instructions self-destruct after you listened to them? Yeah, I threw my computer away. Smart. Yeah. That'll stop that hacker. Self-destruct. I was the self. And the three memes come out every other week. And if you would like to have access to those for your little ears, then here's what you do. You go to cbbworld.com and sign up for the Maximus tier or Lemonada premium. And guess what? We have merch.

We haven't talked about it in a little while. It's so nice. I love how soft it is and how beautiful the designs are and Kinship Goods makes it. That's right. We have t-shirts and stickers, I think. And sweatshirts and buttons. And you go to cbbworld.com slash merch

The other day, it's finally cooled off here in Los Angeles and my wife, Janie was very excited. She said, I get to wear my Freedom sweatshirt today. Yes, I wore my Who Me sweatshirt the other day.

It was thrilled. No, don't I don't want to promote that. And Mike just wearing the freedom sweatshirt as well. And it just is so cozy and nice. Even if like my wife, you've never listened to a single episode of freedom. Get a nice sweatshirt with a pig on it. You don't need to know anything more. That's right. So Tuesday's.

Here's what happens. Mori Tuesdays with here's what happens. Mori. Tuesdays with Mori Povich. You find out if you're the father. He reveals the five people in heaven who are the father. OK, so the Holy Spirit. So on Tuesdays, we re-release our older episodes. Why don't we ever release who the Holy Spirit is?

It's because he. You are not the Holy Spirit. Yeah. But who is? You're just a regular ghost. Yeah. So on Tuesdays, we re-release our old episodes that are behind the Holy Spirit. Yeah. But who is? You're just a regular ghost. Yeah. So on Tuesdays, we re-release our old episodes that are behind the paywall now. You can get all of our old episodes of CBB World. But if you want to hear them without going paying for CBB World, then we release them every Tuesday.

And that's called Three Visiting on the Two's. It really is. And it's so fun. It's so fun. And every Tuesday when one comes out, we're so happy. We are. We text each other every Tuesday and say it's happening again.

It happened. I think people are listening to something special right now. Yeah. Yeah, I think so too. Anyway, so that's cool. And then everything else, oh yeah, write to us at 3Dim. Did your banana give you a good message there?

It didn't. It just says it peels so good. And then there's a little tiny ad for despicable before on your banana sticker. Yeah, they're really getting in there. This is, that's too much. Look, banana stickers. It used to be so fun because you don't need them. You know what I mean? Banana stickers. They were sacred. Right. And you would save it and put it on your water or something. Yeah. Your shirt, whatever. It was like a fun little touch because like bananas, they don't come with stickers. Now there's a barcode.

Now there's some dumb slogan where they made the Chiquita lady so small and then an ad for Despicable Me 4. Let me see it. I gotta see that movie. It's kind of making me want to see that movie. Yeah, I gotta see that. Is it the smallness of it? It's just that it's on the banana.

Is the movie that small? Do you think it's because... Oh my God, I started playing. Do you think it's because minions sometimes go, banana? Probably. Oh, it's on the banana. Is the movie that small? Oh my God, it started playing. Do you think it's cause minions sometimes go banana? Probably, oh. It's simply, Laura. 100%. Someone's like, it's on the banana. It simply has to be.

Do you know how nowadays I feel like being in advertising would just be so easy, cause you just go crazy with it. Oh, get that, get a sticker on a banana. And then companies are so broke. Yeah. Oh, also now that you can curse. Yeah, I know. Just cursing and advertising.

Oh yeah, hey, fuckhead. So fucking good and they put little stars on a billboard. It's crazy. It's crazy. Anyway. Let's have a little respect for the English language. Yeah. All right, that's gonna be it for us.

We'll see you next week. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Hi everyone everyone. Gloria Riviera here, and we are back for another season of No One Is Coming to Save Us, a podcast about America's childcare crisis.

This season, we're delving deep into five critical issues facing our country through the lens of childcare, poverty, mental health, housing, climate change, and the public school system. By exploring these connections, we aim to highlight that child care is not an isolated issue, but one that influences all facets of American life. Season four of No One is Coming to Save Us is out now wherever you get your podcasts.

I'm Lupita Nyong'o. My new podcast, Mind Your Own, is a storytelling show that navigates what it means to belong all from the African perspective. We're going beyond the headlines to dive into nuanced, intimate stories from Africans around the world. I'm so excited to bring this show to you.
