Listener Q&A Episode 11 aka Snow Day

uh all right can we start sure yeah uh yeah let's start off i'm assuming the explosions are going way longer now let's see oh i wish i wish nope same amount same one hey everybody welcome to the lonely island and seth meyer's podcast Snow Day edition. It's a Snow Day edition. So we're supposed to be recording Great Day. Yeah. We might actually record it tomorrow. It is Sunday. It is a crazy storm has hammering the East Coast. Jorm and I, who live on the East Coast, have managed to work our way to podcast studios just through, like, driving sleep. I'm not at a podcast studio. I'm at my friend Jake's house. There's, like, four kids downstairs screaming and playing Mario Kart. That's great, Jorm. I was doing a bit, and I was going to eventually get to the fact that Andy couldn't make it. Yeah, because of the snow. You look like you're in a studio, though, Seth. You look perfect. Yeah, well, I'm actually in my office because it's better podcasting, but at least Andy gave us 30 minutes warning that he couldn't do it. For me, it was less because I just checked the chain. Wait, so Seth, so you still traveled from your apartment to your studio, even though it's a Sunday? I was coming in from north of the city. I abandoned my family to come here. I was supposed to come back Monday morning and then I started panicking that I was not going to make it back because as of this minute, we are going to tape tomorrow. And I was just worried I was not going to make it back to the city to do my late night show. Do you guys remember like early days of SNL? Like there was a blizzard our second or third year. Well, I can't remember what it was, but like but people were like cross country skiing in Times Square. And I was like one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I remember the only show which I was worried that was going to happen for SNL last night. It did not happen for SNL last night. But when Paul Giamatti hosted, which was before your time, the weather was so bad that the after party was just in 30 Rock. That's incredible. Like a conference room where they just had like bad wine and beer. That's such a fucking drag. Which is also like Giamatti is the perfect host to have that happen. A thousand percent. Just like the saddest after party. Like somebody would write a movie about him hosting SNL. Yeah. And that's what it. Yeah. wait so wait uh the storm right now is it supposed to get worse it is supposed to get worse it's supposed to basically go all day it's almost it's pretty white out conditions it looks like there's about eight inches down but i think the roads are going to get worse tomorrow because it's going to stay cold and everything's going to freeze yeah yeah so there's worry that like your audience doesn't show up i think people in new york are going to be fine i just think that if you were out of the city getting into the city it'll be hard yeah we we walked over here and my five-year-old daughter did not enjoy like block seven of getting over here i'm sure but uh but things must be pretty harrowing in la as well keith if andy couldn't make it you know what their their their family's been uh passing around a little bit of a cold yeah of some sort and so there's um a lot of chaos right now don't you feel bad seth you fucking dick i also have a cold that's fair so how often And how often did you come into our office at SNL and Andy was on the couch feeling a little under the weather? I would say passing around a cold is what I would say outside of making really funny songs. That is what the Lonely Island did. Yeah. The three of us, just the same cold. Just by the time the first guy was good again. Yeah. He would just get it. They would say like, what is it like working with the Lonely Island? And I'm always like, well, you know, one's always a little sick. And they were like, oh, no, I meant the music. I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The music, too. there was a small room so because great day is a short that we're you know proud of and it's one of our main ones in our minds criterion in our minds we can't do it without andy's what we're talking is what our text i was talking about and we agree but what is this podcast if we are just always like andy is gonna go shoot a movie soon this is public yeah information you know what i shot a movie too so you know what we fucking you have to stop jumping in you pass and just ton really we all know you did you did miss a fair amount of episodes during exactly and andy will too uh but you know well these are these are i guess the test episodes how many q's and a's can we do you know well that's the question yeah we can also well let me start with a q for you keeve yeah how do you think yorm and i did uh without you guys solo solo dolo oh well i really enjoyed it because again i guess every time one of us misses it we kind of get the experience of what somebody might like about this which is that it's just hanging out for an hour and when i'm in the car alone it's way less lonely to feel like oh i'm hanging out hey somebody made this comment because yorm and i each accidentally called the other one keeve at some point i appreciated that and someone uh did suggest that the next time yorm and i do an episode together it's called a two keeves episode that makes sense to me yeah yeah you're just the you're the guy apparently there was not a lot i felt like to follow up on except for there was one moment yorma you were just telling a story about your life and you were saying that one of your kids like to find interesting music on spotify or whatever you just throw out two words and he said mama's gun yes and that was how you found something but i don't know why he said that that's a fucking crazy two words to put together but that's a very famous erica badu album i think it's her second album oh mama's gun you're right you're right but but He didn't know that album. I was shocked that Apple Music or Spotify or whatever you're using over there didn't immediately play Erykah Badu. But maybe it does song first rather than album. Like, does song take preference over album? Like, when I type in Mama's Gun into Google, it's the only thing that comes up. The critically acclaimed second studio album by neo-soul singer Erykah Badu. It is crazy that I didn't think of that or mention it. Because it is, yes, like, 100% it should be that. And I don't know why that came up. And I don't know why he said it. He was just yelling out words. I don't know. And they were not a huge band at the time. A music thing should just immediately play, Theric Abadu. Spotify, work on it. Let's not prioritize Mama's Gun, the song over Erykah Badu. Guys, speaking of Spotify, I got my award. I got my little award, too. I feel like I forgot to read what mine said. What's so interesting about what Spotify sent us is that the award itself is substantial. like yeah they made real awards that they probably gave to real people and then they had extras and went what if we give some more away as goofs and we got goof words what does yours say keith the eternal optimist but i think you know when you get your your end of the year spotify wrapped email yeah it kind of labels what kind of a listener you are i'm sure this is one of the labels people if they listen to like upbeat music can get this label so i think they just assigned one of the i gotta say kiev this is the only eternal optimist award you're ever gonna get yeah it's not fitting of my personality makes me think they don't actually listen or it's sarcastic i feel like if i the award i should have received from spotify is the age gap award when all you listen to is stuff that's like 50 years apart so it's like k-pop and like fleetwood mac yeah it's you're just doing the 70s and the 20s and the and the 20s yeah there was a lot of uh we did mention it yorm a lot of our listeners were enthusiastic about the idea of an episode called oops all yorm you know what people were mad that jeff basically i got shut down i got shut down by jeff i think jeff just knew better like let's not do that you know yeah jeff i think jeff knows that the loudest people who leave comments maybe aren't the best reflection of our total listener base and the two percent yeah love you guys love you guys uh Connor is our service member who asked for a message from Andy. And I said, Andy didn't have shit to say to Connor. Obviously, I do want to hammer home that that was me doing a bit. Did some people misunderstand? I was worried about it when we were doing it. But I want Connor to know that he's not out of our heart. We're still thinking about him. And eventually, Andy is going to be on the pod. And we'll probably have something nice to say. One thousand percent. And I want to say congratulations on your eventual nuptials, Connor. And yeah, lady, you're hoping they're not engaged. if you listen to your own episode you'd realize they're not engaged you guys had time to pop the question connor i like that yorm has a good memory for stuff that didn't happen yeah well in my mind in my mind you should have already asked her connor and i why are people i didn't listen to uh i don't tend to listen to these with ads uh yorm a lot of people had words about your chime ad what do you what did you do on the channel what i was saying this to to akiva because i don't sexual it was or it was asmr it was very deep voice yes and it was very smooth but the best part about it yeah but the best part about it was then the um quantifier came on at the end the little like super fast talk uh what do you call his disclaimer it seemed like a disclaimer from a female voice that's none of us that that was at like four times speed so yorm had taken his really sweet time talking about whatever that product was. And then at the very end, everything he just said is a lie. Do not listen to this guy at all. He is a fucking idiot. It was the polar opposite of him. It was very funny. To discount everything Jormit said. So it was a lady chipmunk. It was one of the lady chipmunks. Yeah, exactly. Stephanie. Somebody said that Hot Rod was in their family's top five movies, and one of the movies was Knight's Tale, which I've never seen. The Heath Ledger movie. Oh, yeah, of course. What was her name? Soshana? Shannon Sossaman or something. Good Night's Tale. But I feel like having now watched the trailer might be a perfect movie for my boys. Yes. You know, I have a list in my notes of like Family Movie Night. Yeah. And this has been on it for like four years and gets shot. I go, all right, is it E.T.? Like I give a list each time of what we can watch and then people have to choose something when it's a movie. And this one, they haven't chosen yet. But I remember liking it when it came out. i remember seeing it in what year 2001 is that it yeah and i remember liking it so i've been trying to revisit it ever since i love that you watched that in 2001 that's like right when we were fucking around making yeah i think like me and matt watched it at our house yeah there's a lot of um alan tudyk mark eddie um like some real friendly faces paul bettany this might be totally wrong and i'll get clowned in the comments but i seem to remember it was doing a thing where it had modern yeah it does songs but that felt fresh right in that like interesting you know combination of it's like um medieval times with pop songs well it's like i mean it's a nice payoff the only reason my boys like led zeppelin is because of thor like that was their gateway gotcha yeah have you shown them school of rock yeah recently is it the same led zeppelin song in both that they sing in the van i can't remember i can't remember either i don't think so um the great thing about school of rock ends with just that like long musical performance while they're rolling credits it makes you so happy and it's an acdc song and that they sing all the time now they love it that's an acdc song the very last one is that way it's a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll i was thinking we were stuck in the dumb days if we had had more than 30 minutes warning that we weren't going to do great day then i would suggest we would choose a movie like a night's tale or a pilot like nypd blue or yeah um i watched the moonlighting pilot a few years ago like that would be a perfect one to talk you know and we just choose something yeah and we just make that that we're a re-watch podcast for some but one of us gets to choose you know i mean like we it floats around yeah i love it but again this is good keeve because i think that our listeners just love being behind the curtain and finding out how we talk about just i think they like knowing we never talk about this podcast outside the podcast yes and we barely talk to each other outside of the podcast get it in now oh gosh i have it um uh it's in my office which is not next to my podcast studio but i did a show in charlotte north carolina on uh friday night was supposed to do a show in durham where i was gonna see emily spivey for a drink afterwards yes saw her sister in charlotte but then uh that show got snowed out so i had to come back wait what's your sister like is her sister exactly like spivey yeah and she's the best and also she listens to this podcast and she said her favorite thing about the podcast is when we talk uh we say nice things about emily which was made me so happy that's nice yeah uh but i had a cousin of mine justin cousin who i maybe only seen like three or four times but he uh he quaid armied me when he came in and he brought a t he made a t-shirt that's a black t-shirt that has quadro coming out of it so it looks like quadro's coming out of the black void on your shirt and it's uh even he said it's bad it's a bad shirt yeah you quato is bad to look at quato is bad to look at i did talk about our quato challenge coin that i was given and uh can't report back that i mentioned how cool it was and i think there's a chance you guys are gonna get your own i'm so jealous like if that's a real thing i'm very psyched on that um oh two more things and then we have some we have dinner seth if we get our challenge coins i'm definitely going to keep mine and you better fucking have it out or you're paying for a round of drinks do you think there's that part of what's maybe unique about this podcast is that it's four very very close friends who really don't communicate very often outside the podcast because we're so busy so you really don't miss anything when you're as an audience member you're not missing things in between really yes you you're really just living your life and we're all living our lives and then we're all coming together again yeah to kind of catch to catch up it's like a virtual world where like nothing has happened when you turn it off yeah exactly things have happened individually just like they've happened with you as a we haven't moved the ball forward even an inch since you last heard no you've done things in your life you've gone to work and and hung out with friends or family and and you know done what you've done and we've all done that too separately yeah and then we all come back together we all come back and it's good to i wanted to uh i you know i actually think it was such a hard spelling bee today i do think there's a good chance that's why andy bailed on us oh let's at least text him for a spelling bee update yeah we'll text right now all right we text him and say say also that's my accusation what makes it like a hard b is it like a lot of q's in it no a q would make it easier it's like letters it because it's always when it's like a hundred words not when it's like eight i did send you guys this week uh that i got solid again on one yeah oh we talked about how i should be the spider man with teeth in the spider verse movie is it is it happening is that happening no but there's a couple of choices will you guys could you guys google image this for me um wreck rap r-e-k dash r-a-p and that's a spider man with teeth from the actual spider man universe okay uh oh yeah he's he definitely has teeth look at this one yeah that's wreck rap and i guess he's like uh so that's like a quite large very muscular for a spider man that's a problem so yeah my voice might not be great it does seem like you want a deeper voice for rec rap also rec rap is parker backwards so that's like an alternate universe but again we're into the spider-verse that's perfect uh doppelganger will you look up doppelganger in the spider-man i think you'd be a great rec rap also doppelganger i can't believe i missed this if i was doppelganger in both snl digital short and spider-man oh yeah he's got like venom teeth he's scary i don't think a lot of people said venom is a spider-man with teeth but we all know venom's not spider-man come guys no he's in the spider-man world i wish venom had been called that i think it would have done much better as a movie spider-man with teeth if it was venom colon spider-man with teeth as the subtitle that would have played way better i would have been there in a heartbeat we could have ruben directed that we could have ruben sending a voice note about if they ever considered calling it that uh last one kiva venom earth 8294 8294 this is eddie parker so that's like if venom oh well that's a venom spider-man yeah yeah so anyway so thank you for three of our listeners knew a spider-man with teeth it's pretty nice i have one q a and then we'll listen to some listener questions wait i got one question seth did people like the episode with you and me or did they fucking hate it i think i think we did okay you're okay thank you we held serve you know you go fishing sometimes you catch a fish you said it um a question for the next Q&A, in photos of the read-throughs, there's always an impressive spread of snacks on the table at SNL. Do people actually eat those during the read-throughs or frowned upon? Is there a hierarchy to who can eat which snacks? I feel like we should get six ex-cast members on here and do an entire episode on the table read snacks. Go snack by snack. It'll mostly be talking about watching the guacamole go from green to brown throughout the table. That's how you know when the read is over. if a sketch if a sketch late goes good the guacamole turns green again it like yeah when it goes brown they will cut off the table read no matter what sketch is being read if it goes brown it over um but yeah i will say that there were little sandwiches that I would I think I just said sandwiches and that was an accident There were little sandwiches No, but that's right. Sorry, that was an accident. I thought that you were being cute because they were little. Nope. I just stumbled and then hurt myself and I wanted to correct. Oh, don't correct that. It sounded like they are little. So they're sandwiches. But I have my little sandwiches that I would just stress eat during the table read. Now, I will say there's not a hierarchy, but there's a bit of a logistical issue for the Keeves and the Yorms of the world that were not sitting at the actual table because the writers sort of sat in like church seating behind. You're like second row or third row. We had the couch in the back. Yeah. It would have been insane if Yorma mid-table read had stood up, reached over and grabbed a sandwich. That would have been. You'd have to reach over a cast member's head or between two. It would be weird. I would have done that if we had had a sketch that was doing so badly that what's the point? I think that would have been a good bit to like slowly walk over during the sketch and have a sandwich. I do remember being hungry and watching you guys snack and feeling like, oh, I want one of those carrot sticks. Nothing about it was you were never happy that you ate the table read sandwiches. I can tell you that. And then, of course, the I would say the most iconic thing that's happening during the table read is that Lorne Michaels is just slowly eating the largest plate of edamame. Oh, right. Is it always edamame? Yeah. He likes edamame and popcorn. I wonder what year that got. Do you think that that was 1975? Edamame was around that much? That's a great question. I wonder what year the edamame got added. I bet it's like early 90s. Yeah. That sounds right. You know, when all of a sudden. It's when Nobu. Just look up when Nobu opened. When Nobu opened, Lauren went there, had edamame, and then the next day. What's this? Exactly. It's like the new popcorn. It's like the new green popcorn. Do you think Shoemaker would know that answer? Seth, I'm so curious if we're right. That is such a good guess that De Niro and Nobu opened the first one. And exactly what you said happened, Seth. All right. Question for the pod, writing Shue. I like that he got more protein. Best guess. This is now. I mean, the content we have for our listeners right now. Just fantastic. Anybody who thought this had to be about shorts every week. Could be about what year? Wait. Seth, is that website now? you know app phone thing where you can bet on anything oh right uh calci or something there's like two really famous ones yeah but we we should probably put what year did lauren start eating edamame uh and then start getting the over under i said best guess to lauren when did nobu open did you have you googled that wait so can you propose anything to bet on then and then i think you kind of can oh man i might lose my whole life doing that all right but i just have an answer Ready for what Shu said? Yes. 93. But he's not connecting it to it? I just said, question for the pod, when did Lauren start eating edamame at the table? Best guess. I said early 90s, so pretty. Yeah. So the original Nobu opened in September 94. So now, say. Are you sure? Do you want to revise your answer based on this information? Say, let him know that and then see if he changes it. i also like that i just wrote randomly to reuben fleischer did you ever consider renaming venom spider-man or no reep did not give him contact yeah just like out of i haven't texted him in like a year all right well you're gonna get like hey what's up man you're gonna get a very candid answer because he doesn't know it's public i had to sign it yorm just in case it's the wrong number so the original matsuhisa which is nobu's last name and is a restaurant in la that was before Nobu opened, this was his first one, and it's still there. It opened in 87. And you know it was the hottest restaurant in LA, so you know Lorne had gone. Yeah. You think he'd get a guy in? Yeah, I think so. 87? Yeah, he's in there. Support comes from Willys. Oh man, Keeve, we used to wake up hungover, worrying about what happened last night. Yep, it still happens occasionally. Yeah, but like back in the day when we were really getting after it in our SNL days, We weren't lucky enough to have Willie's THC infused social tonic. No, that would have been illegal.

In case you're wondering why I'm pausing, Keeve, it's because they're going to put in cha-ching sound effects. Oh, sweet. Support comes from Airbnb. Guys, you know when we were making the movie Popstar? I was out in Los Angeles editing for seven and a half months with Akiva, my dude, and I've stayed at a lot of homes on Airbnb. I stayed at ones on the east side, west side of Los Angeles, near Judd's office when we were making stuff, and I kept changing places just for the experience of it. It was great. I felt like I was in actual neighborhoods and I stayed in Abikini. I love that it was walkable, that it felt like you were in a real home. It's hard to be away from home for so long, and it was great that I felt like I was home, just in different places and experiencing different things. Whether you're vacationing or you're working or you're daydreaming about a bucket list destination or with your family and you need a bit more space, booking a trip on Airbnb makes for a better trip. You could be traveling with family or looking to discover authentic and local experiences. It does it all. Andy replied. He said, I bailed. Don't say it until the end. Okay, guys. So once again, go on to the gambling app and put in your bets now for, so you heard me say bailed. You know he bailed. But how many short was he? How many had he not gotten? Everybody. He blamed himself for being sick. Yeah. No one could argue. Still working. one could argue it's because i'm sick is what he said yeah so he's so much better than me and i could i mean i feel like i'm still like 20 away so even a sick andy crushes me uh jeff so we know it's under 20 jeff i got a question jeff when can we just make t-shirts jeff can we just start making t-shirts you know what every time you talk about t-shirts and this is a question for yorm i've been asking him several times to send me a uh a design yeah he we talked about this several times this week knowing that we're not going to make any money off the shirts you know past his prologue i feel like we should have more than one design because i feel like the fun of the lonely island shirt store is that uh you know there's just shirts that like maybe three total listeners buy can't can't we just do a revenue share with designers and just have it be open no anybody that designs one instead of making one design i'm gonna make five designs i feel like somebody some designer who's listening right now who makes a great shirt can earn the money on that shirt that's fine oh we get so many designs in the email so you're just encouraging more people to send in more designs but the question is is there a website that sells shirts that would make it easy to revenue share where it doesn't become like a headache for whoever's doing it oh probably probably maybe yeah write in your comments guys hit us in the titties on that i'll take 90 and again here's the exciting thing everybody no conversation about t-shirts will take place between podcast recordings. This is no work will be done. The next time we talk about it will be the next time anybody talks about it. We can promise you that. We can promise you that. That no. This is no shade on any of the nominees, all of whom are great. Plemons, robbed. Yeah, because Emma got a nom, right? Emma got a nom, deservedly so. Plemons, I'm just going to say it, top three favorite actors right now working today. Yeah, and he's so good in it. It's amazing. And then what do you think of him personally? Like when you've hung out with him, are you like, fuck, this guy is cool? I've never met him. Top favorite. If you ask me about like actual people, he might be my favorite actor in Hollywood today. Wow. What are you saying personally when he comes and sits on your... Oh, I ain't Oliphant. I ain't Oliphant. Sorry. Just trying to worry about who might be listening. When he sits on your couch, though, snore, right? No. I'm just kidding. Adore him. I'll tell you. Wait, I have a great... Jesse Plemons, every time he comes on, tells me how much his grandmother's a big fan of mine. And then he also told a story about how she has a shrine. She has like a little antique shop and she has a shrine to Jesse. And obviously he's done some really cool things. But the funny thing he said, I think he was on an episode of Grey's Anatomy where he had some like weird like face disease where he just was barely recognizable as Jesse Plemons. And she just has like a still of that blown up and framed, which is like really funny. Anyway, Wally had an idea. He goes, hey, we should sign his cue card, the intro to Jesse and send it to his grandmother for her shrine. Yeah. and uh by the way then wally's like i'll get the cue card and so wally brings me the cue card wally's also signed it i'm like okay wally so uh wally and i send this a signed cue card and then jesse blimmons grandmother writes the nicest note like puts in a picture of the cue card on the wall and just writes the sweetest note and it's just so lovely when a person comes on your show and talks about how their grandmother's super nice and then immediately the grandmother proves that They're not inflating that at all. That is so... Where is he from? Texas. Got it. He's a real Friday Night Lights. It was a local cast. Real deal. Now I don't respect his acting as much. Oh, because you like him. He was just being himself? Yeah. I mean, that's fucking cheating. That's what you do every night, Seth. That's true. Look, by the way, nobody is impressed with my acting. Where were we? I don't even know. Hey, why don't we listen to a voice note? Hi guys, it's Didi from Baltimore. I'm Dane. Sorry it's been so long. My mom and I are both brutal brained and we keep forgetting. I have two questions. How old were you when you knew you wanted to be on SNL? I was seven when I knew I wanted to be a writer and eight when I wanted to be in the sketches. Also, who's your favorite recent host? Mine is Ariana Grande because she's friends with Bowen and I love my best friend's house. it's so surprising and gross and it reminds me of digital shorts because it's musical and funny too okay hope you have a great day amazing i loved it once again just amazing thank you thank you edie seth was it always your dream andy's talked about that it was always his thing since he discovered it after wrestling you know tuning in for wrestling and it wasn't a wrestling saturday and discovering snl as a kid probably around the same age as her it was my favorite thing by far when i go back to my childhood home where my parents still live my bedroom has so much snl stuff like there was a 25th anniversary book that came out that my parents like got for me like it was a thing i would get like snl stuff for christmas i don't know if it was like i think it was like too big to consider it a dream but one of the coolest things is when i went back for my 10-year high school reunion i was on i think i'd been on the show for a year and the amount of people at my room you're like i knew it and it was just like oh that's so great like you had a far higher estimation of me than i did that's very sweet yeah it's very sweet i i put that in the same category there's no way that i thought as an l was a possibility in my life and yeah i didn't wouldn't have dared to dream but we did love it oh taking my son around the hallways recently on like a sunday and just showing him stuff and it's still being like i can't believe i worked here. I can't believe we made any kind of impression at this show while working. I'm still surprised I was even able to audition for the show. So it was never on my radar as a possibility at all. But loved it growing up. Absolutely. And my era of Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, that was my introduction, really. I remember thinking when they had reached out to ask for an audition tape, the very fact that they had given me their mailing address felt like a total triumph it's like a very public mailing address of course it's like 30 rock and whatever yeah i was like oh 17th floor i better print well on this envelope uh yeah so keeve did you ever you know there's no fucking way right no no but but you know like was obsessed with it from the moment i realized it existed i I don't know how old that was. I remember sneaking into it. Because Akiva, his parents had a lock on their TV. So I remember being over at his house, Akiva sneaking up the stairs, stealing the key. Oh, my God. We're going to get in so much trouble. And your mom is going to be so fucking pissed when she hears this. And turning it on and watching SNL with you and being like, oh, my God. What do you mean a lock on your TV? Yeah, this is very, very. Only for a year or two of our, it wasn't all the time. It was only for a couple of years where she was trying different ways to get us to watch less TV. And like one of the things you could find and buy was a TV lock. And I think it basically, it was a extension cord for the TV that had like a little box over the part where it would connect the power. So, you know, you would have to unlock a teeny little plastic box and then you could plug in the TV essentially. In my mind, it looked like a kryptonite lock, like key. I don't know if it was. Yeah, I think the key was that kind of circular little lock. I can't believe I remember that. I remember so little, but I remember that. It only happened in our house for like a year maybe or something. It's another one of those things you kind of try and go, no, this doesn't really work. It made watching TV better, though. You were like, yeah, fuck yeah. You're like, I unlocked it. You had to work for it. It's so funny that all those years ago was the same problems parents have with their kids now, which is like how do you just get them to look at stuff locking the phone and you're like and those kids are like and then i just knew the password that my parents had put because i watched them do it once and then i would unlock my own phone uh but yeah uh recent os i will just say that uh i know it's uh already happened a few other times but that first time i saw that nate margetzi george washington sketch i was so jealous of it oh i love it and like the best way of like oh man this is perfect and i can't believe they have a second one that's sort of equally good yes great i went up uh i rarely do this but i went up to mikey and streeter's office once i heard they wrote it to just tell them like i had to like get on the elevator and come up here to say like it was perfect and the great thing which i'm sure they've talked about at length at this point was it had it didn't really do that great address like it was i kind of thought it was on the bubble and I was like, this must have been a home run from the minute you did it at the table. They were like, no. Everything was a little bit off, and dress was the first time we clicked. Wow Just goes to show you Seth again I was going to say the exact same thing It was Nate Bargetsy for me and I loved that particular sketch and I showed it to so many people And I also love that that one is one that you can show to anyone from any country in the world, and they'll be like, oh, yeah, that's funny. And kids. Yes. Oh, my God. Like that great, that way that Nate Bargetsy is good all the time, you can show it to kids. It's hard to do kind comedy and still be funny, and he is that guy. He's figured it out. Keeve hates him and Andy hates him Andy hates him I prefer my comedy a little bit more tweaked So demented I feel like I, by the way, I think this is like Seven pods in a row I haven't been on With Andy And I'm telling you, he's about to be shooting a movie And it's only going to get worse I don't know what's happening here I think everybody's looking forward to Keeve, Jorm, and Seth talking about the Moonlighting pilot but also edie thank you for sending that voice note it was lovely and i hope we answered correctly what do we got next jeff do you have another voice now hey lonely island uh this one's mostly for akiva a little bit for andy but i just showed my daughter the chip and dale movie and she well i'll let you she'll say what she thinks in a second but i wonder why you guys never bring that up and i would love to have a full episode just breaking that down because it was it was super fun and andy was great in it and bring milanian too to to talk about his experience and this is what my my five-year-old thought of the movie what'd you think of the chippendale movie i loved it there you go oh well that's very nice that was great uh yeah we could talk about it later when we get up to it it's just i feel like we don't talk about the really recent stuff that just predated starting the podcast because we're not up to that we're just yeah we're going in order You gotta wait. But thank you guys for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it. And I have plenty I can talk about if we, I mean, I'm sure we'd all have to like almost rewatch it. And then we could do an episode where I can talk about the good parts and the challenges. The things I'm not as happy with. Ooh, look at that. That's a real tease there. Not the eternal optimist. I mean, all right, great. What do we got next? Hello, gentlemen. This is Edwin Allen Richards IV, a long-time Quaid, first-time Qualler. And I have a question that has plagued me for about 20 years now. Back in the day, you all created a short called The Backseatsman. And in this short, everybody seems to have the same point of interest, and that is 56th and Lennox. And I just am here to ask you, what was at 56th and Lennox? It has plagued me for 20 plus years, as I previously stated. I lose sleep over it at night. My girlfriend is sick of me tossing and turning and sweating in the night, wondering what the hell was at 56 and Lennox. If you could answer that, that would be really awesome. also Andy I think your character work with the backseatsman was some of your most actualized and and creative and deep character work truly that you've ever done so I wonder if there's maybe any chance of a revival of that character maybe a movie maybe a spinoff series yeah that would just be great also follow-up question in awesometown at the very beginning were you guys actually dancing with your moms were those your real moms um yeah i don't know hit me in the tit me uh let me know this guy had two good ones thanks love the pod you guys are great uh sweet later okay the the one thing we can answer is about our moms uh and those were me and uh kiva's real moms right and then andy had a fake mom i believe is the uh the joke and awesome god i'm barely remembering i just remember that i had wanted to do a bit at the beginning of the awesome town where our moms come out it was gonna be all our real moms and then somebody in the audience was gonna say hey everybody check out those moms and then all of the audience was gonna start chanting moms moms moms moms and we were gonna be like why is everyone so excited about moms like we would just like what why and then they were used to be like we're all orphans yeah we're all orphans and everyone was gonna be really excited because they were orphans um we didn't do it uh spilled milk but um backseedsman i don't want to be blamed for that at all and that is entirely out of so so i wonder if we should even bother addressing this one or just redo it with andy even if it's on the episode with great day be like before we start we had a q a that is because andy and chester really were the creative people it's one of the shorts we made before we even made like awesomentown it's like one of the like around when we were doing like kablamo and stuff like 2002 when we were just making little shorts around the house it is pretty much entirely andy and chester right and it was an andy chester joint i mean i definitely remember helping shoot at it but it was not i don't think i can we can do that but where where do you think this gentleman saw the backseatsman it would just be on our youtube channel but since then i didn't even know it was still on youtube but i'm sure it's right there from 2002 well that's good then people could use this time to go and watch the back seats man no but here's the here's the thing we can bet on this so my guess is 56 and lennox it's annie and chester my guess is that it is a reference to some sort of hip-hop album and somebody like nas mentions 56 and lennox or something like that that's my guess keith that that's a great guess and and chester is from new york and they also met at nyu and we're in new york a lot so yes but it does sound like because lennox is not in manhattan right well uh 56 and lex would makes uh makes yeah but lennox so maybe it's made up or maybe is that in look it up let's put it on calci let's put it on calci and see what comes up look up lyrics 50 so far the questions have been uh not for us as much or you can't talk about it in the future All right. Do we have another question? Jeff? Hey, this is Rachel in Tampa. I don't really have anything great to add, but I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your podcast. I'm just a little Jewish grandmother, but I'm a big fan. Keep it up. Oh, my gosh. Thank you so much. That was so nice. Can't ask for much more than that right there. Yeah. We've got some pretty good grandmas on this podcast. I think you added plenty today. I think you added a lot. Honestly, to my day and to this pod. That was great. Rivaling Jesse Plemons' mom so far. Yeah. I mean, what a nice, what a just nice time that was to have her drop in. Kept it nice and short. Yeah. Didn't overstay her welcome. Just, I also, you know, really wasn't like, sometimes people are like, I don't have much to say. And then they ask like three questions. She really like stuck with her premise. Yeah. She just wanted to share a little. So, Yorm, hold on. there is a 56 and lennox that just looks like east of prospect park kind of near like how do you say utica ave how do you pronounce it utica yeah i was gonna guess that it was and which street is the and is the 27 a freeway or is it just a big street dude i'm just like i am in the bay area where i'm like oh 580 is that a fucking thing like i know i get on the bq yeah clarkson ave and utica by nyc king city uh the hospital how about this i'll go there i'll tell you what it's like and why they probably you know i mean i think that's the only way to solve this that's the only way to do it yeah like oh there's a there's a papai chicken there that like that like they used to go to actually you know what it would probably be round table if it's uh chester because he was big in the round table i'm pretty sorry oh yeah so a couple of things uh dale was in uh the new times Minnie. Oh yeah, as in Chippendale as in Andy's character from Chippendale. So we can chalk that up as another... Nagiri was in the spelling bee and somebody thought that that could be an illusion. I don't think we can claim Nagiri at this point. I got a Q&A from my audience. Somebody said in my Q&A, they said, hey, I have a question. Is Sushi Glory Hole based on a restaurant the Lonely Island went to? And I... No. It took a long time because it seemed like a genuine question. I was like, yeah. It would be so much less impressive if you guys were like, yeah, no, that happened. No, we went to it. It's a real thing. We went to one that had that. By the way, I like that song so much. And when I was thinking about like, oh, if we ever made an album, would you ever want that as the title? And then like, nope. No, thank you. Have either of your kids seen Zootopia 2 yet? Have we asked? Yes. They just saw it last week. We watched it as a family. Okay, great. And I saw, 28 years later, Bone Patrol instead, or whatever it's called. Bone Patrol. I know it's not called Bone Patrol, but it's something like that. No, I love that one, Bone Patrol. It's with Sean William Scott. Oh, my God. Wife sent me out to the video store to rent Bone Temple. I came home with Bone Patrol. It's just awkward. Pretty awkward at the slumber party. I mean, we watched it. We watched it. It was a bunch of ski bunnies on the slopes. And they're going to a... Did not watch Bone Patrol with the kids. An old Civil War burial ground. They're skiing over it. By the way, you guys are making up random shit here. But it's very similar to what actually happened in Bone Patrol. All right, here's the thing, though. So can I Google Maps real quick? I'm just going to show you my... Oh, Jesus Christ. I'm going to show you 56 in Lenox. Check it out. Okay. Yeah. See the sign? Lenox, 56. Didn't allow me to go there, huh? You just wanted me to... It's just houses. Just houses. Interesting. Wait, how was Bone Patrol? Bone Patrol is so buck wild. I haven't... I didn't see the one previous, which I was excited to see. Were you... And you were showing up for the famous, you know, dick, swinging dicks? It was... First of all, I didn't know about that, so that was a fun surprise. Didn't know about anything about that, and I know I'm late to the party. But, yeah, there's a lot of big dicks in the movie, and... Zombie dicks. Zombie dicks. In case anybody's worried. Although, when you see the movie, I don't want to ruin anything but debatable. Things are happening. And there's full-on... So is that what the Boneyard is? It goes into music videos, and it's just fucking Buckwild, that movie. Bone Patrol. That seems like... I feel like Buckwild is a good review from you, Arm. Yeah, for sure. By the way, it got a fucking 93 and 90 on Rotten Tomatoes. Bone Patrol. You gotta see it. It gave it two grades? Audience Award. Audience is 90. So there's tons of male frontal nudity, and it's called Bone Patrol. It might be the same one I rented. I will say, I will say, if you're going to see it, and this is a spoiler, he never gets erect. And I do feel like that that's a slight on the movie. Oh, so the title is kind of like sarcastic. And maybe that has to do with the eating the brains and everything like that. I just think zombies are famously not turned on by humans. It could be that. It could be that. But there were other zombies there. They were all so naked there. So he just didn't get turned on by anybody. but having said that a lot of blood it would require a ton of blood to get that thing hard oh we're not talking about the gore in the movie we're talking about now we're talking about the science behind getting interactions yeah with those massive hogs so cool what a great conversation all right anyway next caller next caller go ahead as long as most of the audience is seven-year-olds and grandmas we're doing just fine i know by the way i was like come on this is a it's an adult podcast and then you listen to her callers it's like i don't know if it is it's a seven it's either seven year olds or grandmas and then we're like how much blood would have taken a zombie's dead do zombies have blood in their bodies can they still get the bone patrol going this is a fucking mess this is not a thing that like we can be like i forgot literally our last two calls we're a child and a nice old woman by the way she's not seven she was seven when she liked snl for the first time she's older than that that's why it's a lot older anyway edie i'm sorry i'm sorry what the fuck well it's because you're seeing those movies i mean it's crazy why are you seeing that you want you can't infect your brain i didn't want to watch utopia 2 and like as much as i i you know i don't know i just thought it was called bone patrol like fucking you gotta see it first off it's not called bone patrol it does this semantics fucking next caller, please. We talked about Zootopia 2 already. It's great. I agree. They all loved it, by the way. Also, if you guys recall, Edie's mom doesn't let her listen to the podcast. She just tells her about it. Oh, good. Thank God. Thank you, Edie's mom. All right. Shut up. I mean, thank you, Edie's mom, although I do feel like it's kind of crazy. She's like, all right, you want to leave another voicemail for a thing you can't listen to? Maybe, I mean, she plays our answers, I'm assuming. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, but I did, between the last time we've done a vioreat i did get an actual item for myself that is great which was um some sweatpants i wish i remembered what they're called though they are called sunday performance joggers yeah but that's not the one i got i got ones that were a little baggier because i prefer baggy sweatpants and they were called like beach hanger out hang out on the beach kind of joggers or something all right great well i think you know obviously that's enough information i think for anybody to go to the website and try to figure out what you're talking about and i think it shows a real authenticity to do the ad read. Yeah. You didn't do the work ahead of time. Yeah, well, but it's genuine. Yeah, it is genuine. I'm not reading copy right now. I don't even have copy in front of me. I'm just in these beach sweats just fucking chilling. It's cool to curse in the Viore ads, right? Totally. And I'm also going to just speak off the top of my head to say for exercise, hey, wear my favorite core short. The one short, every sport. They're stylish and comfortable enough to wear all day. They're soft, lightweight, four-way performance stretch with a breathable boxer brief liner. Thank you for just saying that from the heart. It's like when someone gets up to make an Oscar acceptance and they rip up the paper and shove it in their pocket and go, you know what? I'm just going to speak from here. Look, I have a lot of respect for the people of Viore and the ad copy they've read, but I had to speak from the heart there. Yeah, it meant too much. You're like, this feels rote and I'm going to just, it's like the end of Wedding Crashers when Owen Wilson keeps pointing to his heart. Yeah, that's what just happened to me.

What's up, three albums and Dave? I'm Aaron, long-time listener, second-time caller. I don't know if you guys remember me because my last voice note was from all the way back to the third listener episode, so it's been a while. Probably too winter soldier to recall that. I asked about if loving Daiquiri Girl was a crime, which I guess makes me the Daiquiri Girl. Girl. Hold for laughter. Okay, great. Andy said it wasn't a crime, but it might be a comedy crime. So yeah, that's why I haven't called in a while, because I just got out of comedy jail. It was not as bad as I thought And now hearing the new Criterion episode I'm just glad I have somebody like the Questlove To be on my side about that great girl And that made me very happy That all I have to say really I don actually have a question except for How are you guys Anyway you probably won hear from me again after another year love you guys later quage you definitely not gonna be in comedy jail after that don't don't worry i like it i mean it is for the daiquiri girl believers i mean the quest love thing was a huge breakthrough yeah they felt really vindicated i mean and it ultimately you know it had to be somebody like quest love it could be like you know back bennett no you wouldn't trust that it had to be somebody unimpeachable I thought Quest's response were so well thought out and interesting as with everything he always has an interesting take on stuff but it was just so enjoyable to hear him speak on that I really fucking love Deckery Girl too but you knew I would that's a fucking gimme you liking it means nothing to anyone exactly fair It would be like if somebody said, like, if you were on trial for murder, and then they were like, don't worry, we got an eyewitness who can vindicate you. And you're like, oh, my God, that's great. Who is it? And they're like, Jorma Ticconi. You'd be like, oh, fuck. And you're like, ah, I'm going to fucking jail. Oh, I'm a dead man. I'm a dead man. Or a woman. Yeah. Wake me when he falls apart on cross. How dare you, Seth? And you know what? If you get on a murder trial, I'm not going to come to your defense now. I'll miss you. It'd be nice if you did. uh that was a that was a lovely message and uh yeah do not do not let us or anybody else put you in comedy jail for believing your own truth thank you all right um just in terms of us catching up over a week what's happened since last time i think we were on here is that colin jost came into town i'm not sure why but it was golden gobs weekend i don't know if it was related to that he sent a group text to everyone in la saying want to go to dinner i'm going to be in town for the weekend how about friday night you know the people like tim and zach and and michael bryan all the people all the people solomon yeah exactly uh klein you know everybody you would think that we talk about on the pod all the time just the la based xsnl writer guys and i was in la the night before just i flew in for 24 hours to see my brother for his birthday that's right and i was so jealous this dinner was happening yes and some of those people i just mentioned couldn't make it but uh you know we got like five or six of us and we're like all right we can do it this is the thing and we have so much trouble getting him to then follow up on his own idea to like name of time and place that ultimately andy has to make the reservation because he's so bad just so bad at texting even though it's his idea and then as we the night is you know like like like i'm trying to think of the best way to put this but i'll just skip to the end just can't come yeah but joe's bailed like within an hour of a dinner he organized yes and to be fair he was under the weather he was in la and he was hoping he'd feel good enough to go hoping he'd feel good enough to go i'm basically just on his text i didn't follow up with him after but basically did not bail until we were already there and we would have gone with or without him anyways because it was an excuse to have a dinner and it was still five of us it's not like we were all there for joe's that is so gangster and great that's a fucking then he was it was like maybe 10 minutes before like we some of us i had already gone to this hotel because i saw uh did you guys see i did that um a little video with pamela anderson because we won yes tomato award yeah so i had already just randomly because she was hosting she was presenting at the globes the next day so she was at a hotel in la and i was like oh i'm gonna be leaving the house anyways pam will you do this thing with me she said yes i went to her hotel and we recorded and then i was like wow i have two hours to kill near the restaurant so andy came and met me and that was honestly my favorite part of the night was me and andy got a drink outside at this empty hotel in beverly hills which is so rare that we got together and had to drink and then yeah and then the other guys met us and then i think we were already at the actual restaurant by the time it was like he's not coming well that's it yeah oh The other detail was that just maybe three hours, two hours earlier, it was maybe the Bears game was that night. Yeah. And he texted being like, yo, I'm going to this like it's kind of like a Soho house. I won't even bother name dropping it. But a place in L.A. that's very like members only club to watch the Bears game. If anybody wants to meet up there before dinner and then maybe an hour before dinner said, hey, I'm going to call the place and see if we can make the reservation. instead of six make it 12 like he's bringing six more people from like like some act you know i don't want to name drop his name drops but there was actor people that had hosted snl that he was meeting there to watch the bears game nobody knows who the extra five were or whatever or six and then 45 minutes later he's like actually it's all off and i never actually and then we're like but you went you're sick but you went to that club to watch the bears game and he's like no i actually never went to that i've been in my hotel room the whole time i just i thought i was gonna go to that and then i thought i was i kept waiting to feel better like so all of it went from making it 12 people to not coming he's the best yeah i mean the only thing that would have been better is if he invited all those people and then didn't show up if all five of them had shown up that would have been amazing yeah so work on it that chose can i tell you my favorite this is not my story to tell but a friend of mine uh met vince vaughn for the first time and vince is the greatest guy obviously uh akiva you've worked with him and he's just like a pistol of a person and vince is on fire he's at a like they're at a bar he's killing it in the conversation that my friends like fucking psyched to like meet him and he's like he's like oh what are you what are you drinking what are you drinking like it's him and his friend and he's like he's like rum and coke and you're a vodka tonic, right? Great. All right. Never saw him again. He's just like, took their drink orders and he's going to go, get them drinks. Never saw him again. That's such a great way to leave a conversation. I'm sure he meant to. It gets you out so fast and it's like you're the hero. Yeah. And then you're just gone. Oh, wow. If that was on purpose, that's a genius move. It's a fucking great move and I think we should all employ it. Here's my Joe story that has happened since It's the last podcast. Yeah. What year did Taylor Lautner host SNL, Kevin Miller? I want to say like 2006 or 2007. Yeah. Okay. Taylor Lautner hosted SNL and Joe started a sketch called Manny Manimal. Do you remember Manny Manimal? No. Manny Manimal was the man of many animals. And it was basically like, it started with like cartoon type opening, like of a superhero cartoon where he was bit by a radioactive spider but then he like fell backwards into a tank that had a radioactive octopus and he just keeps getting bit by different things and so he has the power of every animal december 2009 and then it cuts to him like stopping a bank robbery and it's this crazy costume where it's got like a scorpion tail and like you know uh falcon wings and it's a nutty costume that was amazing like the SNL probably and it was all about like how he just felt really sick all the time because there was just like too much stuff going on but the thing about it is the audience is super psyched by the premise and then they're super psyched when they see the costume but then it's like the diminishing returns of like just like oh I think I might throw up is this air or was this just a dress no so here's 2009 does not air i host october i want to say 2017 eight years later he resubmits manny manimal for me once again enough time has passed that everybody forgets myself included why it didn't work right we take it to dress in my show wait same script i mean i'm sure jost would say he fixed it and now you can go back into the computer watch dress rehearsal and go okay what went wrong yes so then basically i do it a dress by the way my show like not a house on fire wasn't like oh it was a great show it was hard to get through like fucking eight shit address not even considered so you would think that's the death of uh manny manimal resubmitted it for finn wolfhard went to dress oh no shit i wonder if what he changed again we should watch all three dress and see how i hope nothing i hope nothing like a month in a month we just got to get him on here which will never happen but like in a mondo butts way see how this thing how this thing grew it feels very mondo but so but by the way i think that's great so kind of like an eight-year gap and then a nine-year gap yeah to submit a sketch that then we're talking six we're talking 16 years from the first one that's amazing yeah good for him but also the amount of people from snl because i you know i still work on the eighth floor right so i'm constantly running into people like just like old script supervisors being like manny mannable's back they're like i can't believe it they're like neither can we gotta build that costume again so then uh i go down i've never met finn wolfhardt and it was thursday i finished my show and i walked down and i was like oh i should go say hi to this dude so i just go to his dressing room knock on his door and he comes out and i'm in the hallway talking to him and his parents and his brother just the most lovely people and then uh jose comes down the hallway and uh he you know i know so he like goes like he points at both of us like and then i say does he know and joe says yes but i don't know what jose thought i meant because then i said so uh you know uh manny manimal and then jose jose eyes go like wide with fear he's like that's not what i'm saying he knows eddie literally just gives me a hug and goes no no no no no no what did jose mean we don't know i don't know because that was like the that was the end of our interaction that's like that's like a sitcom way of dealing with the problem it was like hugging someone and saying no no no no it is it is you brought up an interesting dynamic which is with the resubmits which famously can can be can yield great results in um the most famous being cowbell cowbell spelling bee is another one we talk about all the time those are resubmits so it's not that it's tainted material but you could spook a host that it is like oh that one is a failed sketch and now i'm doing it why am i doing a failed sketch yes and that's why the nose are there that's why it's like don't get in his head that this has been tried twice and failed both times you should leave the building it was so it was so funny to me like the way he backed off it but the other great thing was then finn says to his parents like oh my god he wrote this sketch called manny manimal and then finn's describing it to his very sweet parents and like just it is playing to silence with his parents it was like every there was every bellwether was an ominous omen just their response is just what else is in the show and then uh it was so delightful because uh about halfway whatever like 10 45 on uh or next it would have been earlier like 9 45 on that saturday i started getting texts from people who were watching the show being like it's not gonna make it gotta wait another eight years oh we really gotta see those i know wait uh kevin set do we have a picture of you in the manny mannable outfit oh that's what we want i want pictures of all three of you wearing your outfits who wore it by the way the first guy that they had taylor was like in twilight and had tons of muscles and could do backflips like he would make sense as like a spider-man yeah so it was going off of that seed of like this kid looks like he should be cast as spider-man and then set the same thing and then it doesn't make any sense for Well, that is the three graph points of Taylor Lautner, Seth Meyers, and Finn Wolfhard, I think, tells you that it might never have worked with anybody. We've tried it every version. And again, it's very good writing. Like, Jost is a very good writer. And he's also crazy. And he's also stubborn. And he also cancels dinners he arranged and organized. When they've already began. Too late for people to not go. I love that. Wait, I'm going to share Man of Manny Emmanuel real quick. Manny Emmanuel was an ordinary janitor at Seaview Radiology when one night an x-ray machine mysteriously malfunctioned. Manny was bit on the hand by a spider that had been exposed to radioactive rays. He was then bitten on the other hand by a radioactive rat which was trying to eat the spider. Then a hawk flew in the window right into the x-ray machine and bit him in the face. Manny screamed, waking the owner's pet German shepherd, which bit Manny on the leg, then ran through the x-ray machine, then bit him in the balls. Disoriented, Manny fell backwards into a fish tank, where he was bitten by a zebrafish, a box turtle, and several jellyfish. He was then ambushed by a hyena, a rabbit, a horse, some fleas, a scorpion, a butterfly, and three squirrels, all while a crab watched. He briefly died, but then he was given CPR by a radioactive parrot, but not before a radioactive gorilla had sex with his body. Now, he's Manny Manimal. Whoa, that's the end of Mondo Butts. That's true. He wanted to get some of that good luck from Mondo Butts on this thing. From the original Mondo Butts. The original Mondo Butts. The first iteration. Before it got too safe. Yeah. You have the turtle shell on your chest. Yeah, I have the turtle shell on the chest. On the wrong side. It's a really good costume. And this... Also, did you notice what my actual name was before I got bit? Oh, no. What did it say? Manny Emanuel? Yeah. It's really, really good. So I was a janitor named Manny Emanuel, who then got bit by many animals. Spider-Man's real name was like Speedro. His name was Spy Derman. I got to say, my favorite part was briefly disoriented. Everything about it is very good until it starts. you know what that's kind of a version of but not not in a bumping way but just in a way is um oj simpson's death in the or almost death in the very beginning of naked gun yes when he goes into the boat and then he's getting shot and he's falling into the wedding cake and then onto wet paint and then into steps into a bear clay and then yeah it's like a bear trap rather sorry uh of course that that seed pales in comparison to what we just that was a great great intro the best so then this is just you having stomach troubles and like all pain in your body basically for the rest of the sketch yeah just everything it turns out when you have all those animals and you're just your insides are a mess like the butterfly wings everything about it's good except uh the results uh well i think that's a great place to wrap it up i'm just always gonna remember everything about it's good except for the results we're gonna i mean i will ask jost for a voice note about uh manny manimal i ask for a voice not about manny manuel and what happened with the dinner and with the five extra guests yeah okay that's great and that will maybe that'll help flesh this out he'll weirdly be our fourth guest and what he thought you were gonna say to finn wolf when he thought you were saying i hope he lets us keep that in uh all right you guys uh great talking to you oh wait we have one last thing yeah oh right we got to circle back do you do we want to ask jack black to sing us into this yeah i guess so well i mean we already talked about it though no no we don't know we don't know i stopped it i'm on polymarket right now and it's uh i gotta say whoever put in 12 short you made 100 bucks all right and he bailed 12 short oh my god so fucking embarrassing polymarket's on fire boys wow all right well by the way we i don't know if you caught it keeve but it was sure his favorite part of the podcast mike sure original criterion collection judge who just was so delighted that when I teed up Yoram to say later Arnold Yoram said take us out Arnold take us out Arnold he was so delighted that Yoram couldn't remember later Arnold what do we say anyway when we're in the super recording it's hard to sometimes remember anything and then by the way Yoram sent us a voice note because Yoram tried to claim it was because he was on drugs and then you admitted you read this text chain to Mari and she was like, yeah, that's not drugs. That's you. She knows me well. All right. Love you guys. All right. Love you. Later, Quades. No, that's his line. Love you guys. Keeve, will you do it? Later, Arnold. Later, Quades.
