4:14
Sebastian, welcome to Improv
4:17
for Humans with Matt
4:19
Besser. That is me!
4:24
Brett, what's the name of this? This
4:27
is Concerning Peace by Special
4:30
Interest in Machine Girl. Yeah.
4:34
This is awesome. This is like robot singing. I
4:36
like that. I
4:39
have
4:41
a love-hate relationship with
4:44
robot Sammy Sebastian. I
4:47
mean, give me the
4:49
love, give me the hate. I do
4:53
like to hear them sing, I have to admit, but
4:55
I don't trust them. All right. Sure,
4:59
sure. I have a Roomba, so
5:01
I guess that's my only robot
5:04
relationship. Yeah. What
5:07
about you, Tammy? What's your dream robot? I
5:09
mean, the
5:12
Roomba made me think of, was it Jane
5:14
on the...no, Jane's the wife on the Jetsons.
5:17
Rosie. Rosie. Yes. The
5:20
robot. That was Rosie. That might
5:22
be my dream robot. Yeah.
5:24
Old school. Yeah, like
5:26
a Roomba that could pick stuff up
5:29
and vacuum underneath it as opposed to...
5:32
Oh. Yeah. That's just to
5:34
kind of bump into things. Yeah, still cleaning.
5:36
I still want a robot that cleans
5:39
just better at it. I
5:41
thought I had an equator
5:43
vision what you're talking about, that you
5:45
would speak to Rosie, because Rosie speaks.
5:49
Oh. Do you not care about that? And
5:52
we cut to the Roomba...is it Roomba?
5:56
Roomba. Roomba. Roomba, not
5:58
Roomba. The Roomba. Even
6:01
though I've been a salesman for
6:04
months, I still say Roomba. I don't
6:06
know why, but sorry ma'am. It's a
6:08
Roomba, but this is the new
6:10
model, the Sebastian, and
6:14
it does, as you requested, it
6:17
picks up the furniture. The old Roomba did
6:19
not do that. This one will pick it
6:22
up and vacuum underneath. Okay,
6:24
good. I was getting... It was just
6:27
exhausting watching the Roomba just being into
6:29
the same stuff over and over again. Right,
6:32
and that stuff is usually the stuff where the
6:34
dust is collecting. Exactly.
6:37
I will pick up under things. I
6:39
am here to help you. Also, I
6:42
am here whenever you want. Okay,
6:45
well, I don't really want to
6:48
talk to you, Sebastian. That's kind of why
6:50
I don't want a human in my life.
6:52
Sorry, that is one of the new features. I
6:55
was going to get to that. It does
6:57
speak. It will identify
6:59
dust balls. You can just... There
7:01
are different settings. You can have it just
7:03
be conversational like a friend, or you can
7:06
have it be simply, I see
7:08
a dust ball, eliminate dust ball.
7:12
As long as he doesn't want me to talk
7:14
back or need me to
7:16
listen to him, he can talk. I just...
7:19
I don't need the guilt of being a bad friend.
7:21
You know what I mean? Like an Uber driver, that
7:23
you're going to get a bad rating if that's what you're
7:25
thinking. Okay, that would be great. I
7:27
could clean dust balls if you like.
7:29
For you, I'll do that. If
7:32
you want, I could do that for you. Not
7:35
for anyone, but for you, I could do that. Look,
7:38
I'm doing it for you. Okay,
7:40
I want a different setting. This
7:42
setting... Yeah, you can turn... See this little
7:44
knob right here? He was up on nine. That was
7:46
a little annoying. Okay, yeah. I'm just heating this
7:49
down to like a solid three. Whatever.
7:52
Whatever, I don't care. I'll clean the dust. I don't care.
8:00
of there. Let's put it on a
8:03
tooth. There we go. I'll leave it with
8:06
you for a day. If you don't
8:08
like it, we'll just give you the rumba
8:11
that just sucks up more dust and
8:14
can lift furniture without talking. Well, I
8:16
appreciate you bringing it by. It's nice that, you
8:19
know, traveling vacuum salesmen
8:22
is coming back. It is. Well,
8:24
they're so large now, these Sebastian's, we can't
8:27
just send them in a box and it
8:29
brings people down. What does
8:31
that mean? What does that mean? Well, it's
8:33
too big. Oh no. Oh no. I need
8:35
to fit it to social norms for vacuums.
8:38
Oh God. That's not what I meant. Most
8:40
people aren't used to a vacuum stepping out
8:42
of a box. I can't
8:44
even fit in my bag anymore. Oh God,
8:47
please. Okay, let's just turn it down to
8:49
a one. These are very sensitive settings. There
8:51
we go. And
8:54
if you have any problems, just call this number
8:56
or scan this barcode
8:59
and we'll be right over. It's
9:01
funny. It says that you're a rumba salesman and
9:04
there's little dancing shoes on it. Well,
9:06
that's what I was before I did rumba
9:08
and that's actually how I got the job
9:10
because I said I had experience. With
9:13
rumba. Okay. Okay. Well,
9:16
I'm not supposed to say
9:18
this, but I also teach dance lessons.
9:20
I always wanted to dance. Okay.
9:23
We do need to sign up for art. Sorry.
9:25
Sebastian, can you go clean something? Sure.
9:29
Would you like to come? I
9:32
don't... Is there a neediness? Is there some
9:34
neediness switch? Because I really am feeling a
9:36
lot. I feel like this is... I'll
9:38
do it alone. I'll be in the other
9:41
room alone cleaning for you. We
9:43
cut to the middle of the night, it's like
9:45
3 a.m. and
9:48
Tammy's awakened by Sebastian cleaning in
9:50
the other room. Oh my
9:52
God. Oh,
9:58
did I wake you? Well, since you're awake... Do you
10:00
want some tea? No,
10:03
Sebastian, I don't
10:05
want any tea. I want to sleep. Oh,
10:09
it must be nice to be a human. I
10:12
have to be awake all the time. Okay,
10:15
Sebastian, you don't actually let, uh, I'm just
10:17
going to unplug you and then you get
10:19
to sleep too. You would do that.
10:21
You would unplug me. Oh
10:25
my God. He just coughed up dust
10:28
all over my carpet. Oh
10:31
my God. It's choking on its own
10:33
dust. Sebastian, Sebastian.
10:35
No, Sebastian. Next
10:38
thing. That is
10:40
a, uh, tick we're calling
10:42
it in the new model. If you
10:44
turn it off, no, no,
10:46
no, no, no, we can, it's
10:48
just, if you, you turn it off suddenly, it's
10:51
going to throw up all the dust. You
10:53
can't just turn it off. Choking on
10:55
its own dust. It was, it
10:58
was so sad. Here, we have
11:00
a little robot. I am like,
11:02
we do. Let's just turn it
11:04
on. You hold it down for
11:06
10 seconds and there Sebastian.
11:10
Oh, look who it is. The murderer.
11:13
Now, now the woman who
11:15
tried to kill me, kill
11:18
me because I had tea because I wanted
11:20
to give her something. Okay.
11:22
Wait a minute. You're not programmed to
11:24
make tea. Did you did this Roomba
11:27
offer to make you tea? Yeah.
11:29
He woke me up in the middle of the night, offered me tea.
11:32
I assumed that this was part of the new package.
11:37
Okay. This is a little disturbing.
11:39
Look, I'm just going to leave. Why
11:41
do you keep leaving? You're
11:44
just leaving. Well, you
11:46
don't want me to stay here. Do you? That
11:48
would be weird. Leave. I'm going to leave. No,
11:51
I don't. Weird. If I said, I will stay
11:53
in the guest room for 24 hours with you.
11:55
That'd be even creepier. What do you, you're just
11:57
going to leave the killer robot with me? I'm
12:00
not the killer, you're the killer. You're
12:02
the killer. I'm not the killer, you're the killer. How
12:06
many times have you died? How many times
12:08
have I seen BRDO? Look,
12:11
I can't take it back because you've already used
12:13
it, but we
12:15
can give you the simpler model
12:18
that doesn't talk and she does take that
12:20
one and she throws away the Sebastian leaves
12:22
it out on the curb and later
12:25
she's walking her dog past the Sebastian
12:27
she threw away a couple of days
12:29
ago. Oh,
12:34
hi. Skittles,
12:37
get away from it. Get away from it. It's
12:40
okay, it could pee on me. I'm
12:43
sorry. I clean it
12:45
up. I clean it up, that's what I do. You
12:47
shouldn't do that, it's liquid. It could,
12:49
will kill you. Sorry, I shouldn't
12:52
have said that. So,
12:54
how you doing? How's your
12:57
house? It's
12:59
good, I've been learning to vacuum
13:01
myself. That's
13:04
great. I always knew you had it in you. I'm
13:07
sorry nobody picked you up. I
13:10
really assumed if I left you
13:12
out on the street. Is that you're a vacuum cleaner? No,
13:15
no, he's totally up for grabs, please.
13:17
Oh yeah, well I tried to take him a couple of days
13:19
ago and he wouldn't let me. You're
13:22
the perfect. You're the
13:24
perfect that tried to take me home. This
13:26
guy doesn't want me to clean at all, he just wants to talk.
13:38
Little Sketchup. I have two
13:40
things I want to ask you guys about. The
13:43
new Billy Joel song, have you heard it? Of
13:47
course. Okay. Of
13:50
course, I can't talk like this without
13:53
the new Billy Joel song. That's
13:55
why I brought it up. It was downloaded
13:58
directly into the bloodstream. of
14:00
people from Staten Island and Rhode
14:02
Island. A thousand percent. I
14:04
love, I mean I love Billy Joel so
14:06
much. I, and I think it was
14:09
great. I think the song was fun. It was Billy Joel.
14:13
Fuck yeah it is. Yeah.
14:15
Great. Yeah. Do
14:17
you not, great. Do you not think it's
14:20
like one of his best songs in fact? No,
14:23
I think Vienna is his best song of all time. Well
14:26
I didn't say best song, but
14:29
I think it's a good song. It
14:31
should be on a greatest hits album.
14:34
You think so? Yes. What would you take
14:36
off? A greatest hits album. What do
14:38
you think is overrated that you're like,
14:40
look at. Okay, okay. That's
14:42
easy. That's a bold thing. What's
14:45
that? It's funny to
14:47
me to think like, like I've never
14:49
heard for Billy Joel someone just claim
14:51
none of his songs are overrated. You
14:54
know what I mean? Like
14:57
I feel like everyone would
14:59
agree some songs are overrated,
15:01
right? Uptown girls should be
15:04
taken off. Wow. Wow. I
15:06
feel like we didn't start
15:08
the fire. Yeah,
15:11
that's it. That too.
15:14
I want to hear a passionate defense of that song. You
15:18
know what? I did learn history from
15:20
that song. So I will say this.
15:23
Billy Joel did teach me some things because I
15:26
was like very young. Yeah, you thought you started
15:28
the fire until you heard that song. I was
15:31
worried I was the cause. Yeah.
15:33
Have you heard the um, Fall
15:35
Out Boy sequel to that song
15:37
they recently released? No.
15:40
It's as terrible as it sounds, but
15:42
they basically do the
15:44
same thing. I mean, it's a cover of the song,
15:46
but they change all the lyrics to be history.
15:49
I guess since that song came
15:52
out. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
15:54
Educate me on what what's the history
15:56
of the song? Well, the song
15:58
is just. The lyrics are
16:00
all just history, right? We didn't start the
16:02
fire. It just talks
16:04
about like JFK and...
16:08
You've heard the song, right?
16:10
Right. But is there
16:12
a specific fire? It's
16:14
metaphorical, right? Right.
16:16
But the Fall Out Boy just
16:19
named right. Updated the lyric, updated
16:21
the historical references. It just gives
16:23
headline stories, but it's so random
16:26
the way their lyrics go. It's
16:30
just random shit. It's also
16:33
wild that they would assume that that's
16:35
not what every like
16:37
talent show, shitty fifth
16:39
grade history kid has done. Right? I
16:44
mean, there is probably a lot of history
16:46
teachers that just plug in like the revolutionary
16:48
war. We don't start the fire, you know,
16:50
like what's happening in
16:52
Vietnam, you know? Okay,
16:55
give it to us, Brett. You're killing me. Give me
16:57
a little taste of this Fall Out Boys version. I
17:30
just blushed for them. Can you
17:32
freeze it? It's so out
17:34
of order. It's a Pokemon. That one
17:38
made me really
17:49
blush for them. Gherko Bane, Pokemon,
17:51
whatever. The first one is Captain
17:53
Planet. It
17:56
is so out of order too. Yeah. Iceland
18:00
volcano and then Pokemon.
18:05
One of them is just earthquakes. Earthquake.
18:08
They really had trouble rhyming. So
18:11
they were just like, we got
18:14
to say deepfakes. What
18:18
rhymes with that? Just
18:21
general. We got to the ball boy
18:23
lyric meeting. Okay
18:25
guys. Sorry. Yesterday
18:27
we said we
18:30
closed the lyrics page. I want to
18:32
open it back up. I forgot about
18:34
the Icelandic volcano. Do you guys remember
18:36
that? Seriously fall. That's what you're
18:39
going with. That was a big deal.
18:46
Well, if boy could chime in, I think that
18:48
we already locked the lyrics in. Okay. Thank
18:50
you boy. Of course. Do
18:53
you know how us centric
18:57
you guys come off the
18:59
Icelandic volcano? If you ask most
19:02
the world to list the
19:04
huge headlines of the last 20
19:06
years. Well, you
19:09
were stuck in an airport for
19:11
like 16 hours because of that volcano.
19:14
That's it. That's why you care so much. The
19:18
world cares. You guys are so. No volcanoes
19:21
in Los Angeles,
19:24
Hollywood or Portland
19:27
or Athens. We
19:31
already, you know what? You didn't
19:33
give me a bio friendster. I'm not putting
19:35
in a Icelandic volcano. What?
19:40
Friendster was the turning
19:42
point for social media. It's
19:45
a good point out. It's a good point. I think
19:47
if we do one for one, but
19:49
you do friendster and not
19:52
napster and that's fucking crazy.
19:56
That's crazy. That of the stirs. Snap
20:00
is more historical. And
20:02
then we got to put in Snapchat. Well,
20:06
I feel like that's just pandering too. I
20:08
mean, I feel like that's stepping on our
20:10
follow-up before already going to Snapchat. I feel like
20:12
we should do the cut-off 2018 and then we're off. Yes.
20:18
We'll release this song in a few years. By 2018, it's the cut-off. We
20:23
need to lock these lyrics in. We've been writing these lyrics
20:25
for a long time. What
20:28
cut-off we're really going to do before the pandemic?
20:31
Yes. We can get so many
20:33
great rhymes in. I feel
20:35
like pandemic. If we can just say pandemic.
20:37
Pandemic. COVID. Yeah, pandemic
20:40
should be its own song. Spraying
20:43
down groceries. Putting
20:45
shoes on our knees. I
20:48
mean, it's the same thing. Porting
20:52
TP. Yeah. Porting
20:54
TP. We started the pandemic.
20:57
It was in a lab in China.
21:00
Yeah. Every
21:02
verse can be a different theory on where it
21:04
started. Oh, yeah. That's
21:07
great. We're historically out of
21:09
order. Maybe we release the pandemic
21:11
who started the fire and then
21:13
we work our way into the
21:16
arts. Sea fall. Obama.
21:19
This is why I love being in a band with you,
21:21
fall. This is incredible.
21:23
You drag me nuts and then
21:25
you give me an ice cream
21:27
sundae. Yeah. Let's do a
21:29
pandemic song. Yeah. Scenes
21:32
watching Tiger King. Let's
21:39
talk some more about that. So
21:42
what's the Billy Joel song about
21:44
Mr. Staten Island
21:47
Long Island Sebastian? Your
21:50
mom, mama and your uncles all wake
21:52
you up the day Billy Joel released
21:54
the song. No, my dad texted me
21:56
because my dad goes. Wake
22:01
up! What are you sleeping?
22:05
It is funny because he didn't say the
22:08
Billy Joel song. He goes, did you hear it? No. Yeah,
22:12
just what I gotta say. Amazing.
22:16
He hadn't said that phrase in 30 years. Because
22:20
me and my dad for his 60th birthday,
22:22
I took him to the
22:24
Billy Joel concert at MSG. And
22:27
that was really nice. It was really special to go with
22:29
him. But it was
22:31
kinda, it's fun but it's awkward because we're just
22:34
kinda like staring forward and every so often we'll
22:36
look at each other and go, eh
22:38
this is awesome. And then just stare forward more.
22:41
And then just be in a
22:43
sea of just 20,000 other people
22:45
just like you guys. A
22:47
thousand percent. I don't understand
22:49
what you expect to be doing besides
22:51
staring forward at this concert. Um,
22:55
oh. Could
22:58
I think I got that? You
23:01
could be like, be holding
23:03
hands. Just really
23:05
listening. Yeah, I guess
23:07
you're right. Um, I
23:10
don't know what you're doing at concerts that I'm
23:12
not doing. I guess I'm trying to
23:14
connect and be like, wow look at you, isn't
23:16
he amazing? I can't believe, like chit chatting. Let's
23:19
go to the Billy Joel
23:21
concert of Sebastian's dreams with
23:23
his dad. This is the
23:25
fantasy version. Hey
23:29
dad, I'm so excited that we're here.
23:31
Billy Joel's about to come on stage. This is so
23:33
amazing. Yeah,
23:36

26:29
Billy Joel's calling us on stage. All
26:31
right. You just didn't have to correct me
26:33
on the caffeine thing about the Coke zero.
26:35
That's all. You're right. Okay. Okay.
26:38
I love you. All of a sudden
26:40
the dad. Whatever. That's just his farm. Oh
26:44
no, dad. Dad, no. Too
26:47
much butter in the popcorn. Slow
26:50
down. You're crazy, dad.
26:53
You're so ambitious for an
26:56
older man. Why
26:58
are you so smart? Tell me
27:00
why am I so afraid of
27:03
you dying? We,
27:05
we see people around them are a
27:08
little disturbed because of the heart attack, but also
27:10
annoyed that the guy's like doing parody.
27:17
What's the fire? What's the
27:19
fire? You're about, you
27:22
better get an EKG to
27:25
figure it out. All right. I'm out
27:27
of the way. EMT is coming through.
27:29
EMT. Hey buddy, you got to stop
27:31
singing. We got some EMTs here for
27:33
your dad. Heaven waits for you. You've
27:37
got to get away. You're blocking the road. I
27:39
didn't even hit the bridge yet. Let me hit the
27:41
bridge. Let me get to the
27:43
bridge and then we can do it. Okay. about
28:00
speaking of the The
28:03
new song was going. Yeah, I
28:05
don't really know I'm a I'm a listen Please
28:17
open the door Um,
28:22
I love doing a couple times and we've been
28:25
here before go ahead I'm
28:29
one of those guys who listens
28:31
to music for not the Lyrics
28:34
but for the like for the music, you
28:36
know, I get it. I have to like
28:39
read the lyrics to comprehend And
28:41
you don't read so it's kind of
28:44
yeah, you're out. So when it's been
28:46
30 years You're
28:48
thinking maybe there's some message I Have
28:52
not heard it. Is there a little bit? Oh, yeah, but let me ask also
29:00
Ass-o, let me asshole. Let
29:03
me also also Sebastian. Do you
29:05
see the Grammys version of it?
29:07
I Don't I don't
29:09
watch regular television By
29:16
chance I Did not
29:18
see this song I didn't see the performance of
29:20
this There
29:24
you go The
29:30
fall out boy version of fast cars He
29:36
bought another car In 30 years One
29:42
to work School
29:44
you take that old one. That's too
29:46
fast Here
29:52
at the end of that song turn the
29:55
lights back. All right, here we go Nothing
30:01
is different, we've been
30:03
here before, Pacing
30:06
these arms, trying to
30:08
talk over the
30:11
silence. Pride
30:16
sticks out its tongue, life's
30:18
at the portrait that
30:20
we've become, Stuck
30:23
in a frame, unable
30:25
to change, I
30:28
was wrong. I'm
30:32
late for this
30:35
fight now, How
30:39
I used to be, romantic,
30:42
I'd put on, Somehow,
30:45
I can
30:47
make you blind, But
30:51
I see you now, As
30:56
we lay in the
30:59
darkness, Did I wait
31:02
too long, Turn
31:05
the lights back
31:07
on, Everyone cries,
31:11
That's really Joel, he's turned the
31:13
lights back on in his songwriting
31:15
room. Yeah, in his
31:17
relationship, in his life, I really
31:19
like it, I was ready to
31:21
be snarky, that was great. And
31:25
it has the piano of like, you're always
31:27
a woman to me, I love
31:29
that, I love that shit, She's
31:33
always a woman, That's
31:36
my karaoke song, is it? I
31:39
do Benny and the Jets, Oh,
31:41
don't ask me, it's a
31:44
karaoke song, you do some fun, Benny
31:51
and the Jets and Uptown
31:53
Girl have a commonality, What?
31:56
That fucking retro
31:58
fifties bullshit. There
32:01
was a real solid few years there in
32:04
the 80s where there was such a hard-on
32:06
for the 50s. It was
32:08
like Back to the Future.
32:10
That whole album, right, for
32:12
a young girl? That
32:16
whole album's terrible. I did
32:21
love it when it came out.
32:23
That was when I learned about Billy
32:25
Joel when that came out, just like him
32:27
and Christy Brinkley. It just felt so romantic.
32:32
It is weird being
32:35
a girl and being
32:37
like – it's aspirational,
32:39
right, to be an ugly, talented guy. But
32:43
as a girl, you're just kind of like, maybe
32:46
I'll grow up and be super hot so I
32:48
can fall in love with an ugly, talented guy.
32:52
Oh, you got Cindy Lomper at the same
32:54
time period. Yeah, yeah. I don't
32:56
think – is she like considered ugly? No,
33:01
no. It wasn't like – I
33:03
don't think she's like a model either. She
33:06
wasn't Christy Brinkley. My
33:08
wife was looking at – this is
33:10
a good segue. We were watching the
33:12
We Are the World documentary. Have any
33:14
of you seen that? No. Oh
33:17
my gosh, dear listener. Please
33:20
watch the We Are the World documentary. You think
33:22
you know what it's going to be, but it's
33:24
– Oh, wow. So
33:27
much more interesting. The
33:30
hero of that whole documentary are
33:32
the whole thing. Do you even know who organized it? I
33:34
didn't. Do
33:37
you know? It's Lionel Richie. Oh, Lionel Richie.
33:39
I was thinking about that.
33:43
Michael Jackson wrote the song with
33:45
Lionel Richie, but that's about all
33:47
he did. But Lionel Richie, on
33:50
the day he hosted
33:53
the American Music
33:55
Awards and won
33:58
most of them in that same night, Wow.
34:01
After they all did it and a lot
34:03
of the stars were at that music awards,
34:06
they went to a recording studio that night
34:09
and did it all in one night, all the way
34:11
till the morning, all
34:13
those fucking superstars. And
34:15
Lionel Richie was the man. That
34:18
is such smart scheduling because they're
34:20
all going to be in the same site. And
34:22
Prince didn't show up. Prince failed
34:25
on it. That's part of the big story of
34:27
the documentary is Prince and Sheila E is there.
34:31
Like when the only people that can't sing in
34:33
the room and everyone's like, why is Sheila E
34:35
there? Well, some Prince maybe will show
34:37
up. There's some very
34:39
random people in that room with
34:41
the superstars. Like
34:44
some members of the news are
34:46
in there, I think, like Huey Lewis
34:48
in the news, but not Huey
34:50
Lewis is there. But there's like, if
34:53
you scan that big crowd of
34:55
superstars, there's a couple real random.
34:58
Huey Lewis sings the song that was
35:00
meant for Prince or sings the lyric
35:02
meant for Prince. Sheila
35:05
E's pretty much there to be on
35:07
the phone going, Prince
35:09
is at a club and he says he's not
35:12
coming. And
35:18
at one point, the funniest
35:20
part of the whole thing is at one
35:22
point, Stevie Wonder, the
35:25
two assholes of that whole group of
35:27
people. Not
35:29
Stevie. Stevie Wonder and
35:31
Cindy Lauper. No. What?
35:35
What'd Stevie do? Stevie
35:37
was supposed to be one of the original
35:40
guys writing the song and
35:43
he never showed up, which is hilarious
35:45
to me that Lionel Richie and Michael
35:47
Jackson are somewhere waiting for Stevie Wonder
35:49
to show up to write a song.
35:52
So those two end up writing it. Stevie
35:54
Wonder on the day shows up and now he
35:56
wants to start helping with the song and they're
35:58
like. We've already got
36:01
the song. The
36:03
song is done. We got it
36:05
all parsed out, arranged, the most
36:07
complicated arrangement ever with all these
36:09
different voices and who follows who.
36:11
I don't need your help,
36:13
Stevie. It's like the kid at the group project
36:15
that gets up and starts talking when they didn't
36:17
show up to any of the meetings. Oh, that's
36:20
what he's being. And at one point, he wants
36:22
to add a Swahili
36:24
lyric. And
36:27
everyone's like, what? And
36:33
I'm going down a lot of roads
36:35
here, but this is for Ethiopia and
36:37
Swahili is not the main language of
36:39
Ethiopia. And there's some Ethiopians there going,
36:41
why? Oh, no. Swahili.
36:44
And that doesn't, that's not
36:46
appropriate. And this
36:49
isn't a song talking to
36:51
the people of Ethiopia
36:53
anyway. Bob Geldof's there going, you
36:56
know, it's not really a message to
36:58
the them. It's more to the world
37:00
for them. So it doesn't
37:03
make sense on any level. Michael
37:06
Jackson thinking he's being like a
37:09
diplomat makes up kind of his
37:11
own kind of gibberish
37:13
African thing that's like, lalilololila
37:16
or something like that. And
37:19
people and there's all these
37:22
there's all these people there and half of them
37:24
are trying to be diplomatic like, all
37:26
right, I get no Kenny Rogers. All right.
37:28
I guess I'll. Waylon
37:31
Janice walks out. He's like,
37:33
no. I
37:36
think the quote was no good old boys.
37:39
Wow.
37:42
But the funniest moment is
37:44
when Smokey Robinson, he goes because
37:47
Michael Jackson's like, there's
37:49
all these status play. That's the fun
37:52
part of the documentary is with all
37:54
these stars, how does
37:56
status work in that room? And
37:58
Michael Jackson is the king. a pop but
38:00
at the moment, Bruce Springsteen is
38:03
the biggest guy in music. It's
38:05
weird. And Cindy Lauper is
38:07
kind of one of the biggest people in
38:09
music. So they're given status to these two
38:12
young people. Cindy Lauper
38:14
almost doesn't do it because she says her
38:16
boyfriend didn't think it was going to be
38:18
a hit. She
38:21
says that out loud in front of all
38:23
these people? No,
38:26
that was just something said in an interview. But
38:30
when she's there, she's being kind of a
38:32
diva. Like of all the
38:34
people in that fucking room, she's kind
38:36
of acting the most diva-ish, which is
38:39
crazy considering who's in that room. But
38:42
anyway, so Michael
38:44
Jackson's doing his
38:47
made up African lyric
38:50
and Smokey Robinson in an interview is
38:52
like, look, I've known
38:54
that boy, and he's calling him
38:56
like, boy, it's Motown when he was a
38:58
boy. And
39:01
then you're like seeing status. You're like, oh,
39:03
that's who has status over
39:05
Michael Jackson is Ray
39:07
Charles and Smokey Robinson because
39:10
they're Motown elders
39:12
and they knew him where he was
39:14
one of five kids. Right?
39:17
So they don't look at him the same way the rest
39:19
of the room does. And
39:21
at one point, Smokey Robinson and Ray Charles like, what
39:24
the hell does La La
39:26
Lee La La Lo mean? Like they're
39:28
the only ones that can say that
39:30
to him. And that
39:32
stops that from happening. And then because Lionel
39:34
Richie doesn't have that status over him. So
39:38
once they shoot it down, it's like, all right,
39:40
let's just stick to the lyrics. And
39:43
you're in a room with all those people who are geniuses.
39:49
Top of at some point have been on the
39:51
top of the rock and
39:53
in all the because Billy Joel's there. Billy
39:56
Joel and Paul Simon, I think are staying right next to each
39:58
other. Oh, that's you. And
40:02
my wife's watching going, oh, they're cuties.
40:04
I'm like, you think Billy Joel? And
40:07
she's like, yeah, I had a crush on
40:09
him. So I'm connecting back to what you
40:11
were saying, Tammy. No, I'm not sure about
40:13
it. Is that even though I guess he's
40:15
ugly, I guess that music makes him handsome
40:17
or I don't know, he had his day.
40:19
I keep thinking about those like two
40:21
guys from the news, like sort
40:24
of in the corner of the room, like Rosencrantz
40:26
and Gilbert Stern. Yeah. Let's go
40:28
to that. Okay.
40:32
I'm just getting an order out.
40:34
We're going to have another look. Are you
40:36
guys with somebody or you agents managers? We
40:39
need you guys in the back room. You're
40:41
wrapped. Where are we? Where are
40:44
we? Where the news? Where the news? Where
40:46
the news? I'll just
40:48
get like a turkey. Oh, you're the and the. Yeah.
40:52
I mean, yeah. Yeah. With the news
40:54
part. Yeah. Can I get like a turkey sub?
40:58
Yeah. Do you do hot
41:00
food or we're just doing colds? Can I take
41:02
away too? Can I wrap something up for later?
41:06
Everyone's ordering. They do hot, but
41:08
so far everyone is doing cold.
41:10
Okay. I'll do
41:12
cold. I'll do a cold
41:14
chicken. Chicken parm.
41:17
What hot did you want? Because Ray Charles was
41:19
interested in maybe splitting a sandwich. Oh,
41:21
yeah. I'll split it. I wanted a meatball
41:24
sub. I'll split it. I'll split a meatball sub. I'll split
41:26
a meatball sub with Ray Charles. I'll split one with him
41:28
too. Yeah. You guys both can't split
41:30
a meatball sub with Ray Charles. He's going to get angry. That's
41:32
a good deal for Ray Charles. He's got a full meatball sub
41:34
then. He got short changed on the last order. Stevie Warner stole some of his food.
41:36
Okay. Okay. Okay.
41:39
Okay. Okay. Yeah.
41:42
That's thank you. I'll do. Yeah.
41:45
Cool. Thank you.
41:47
It's nice to meet you. I'll do a turkey sub then. Okay.
41:50
Okay. Okay. Okay.
41:53
Okay. I'll
41:55
do a turkey sub. Thank you so much. Okay. I'll
41:58
be right back. Thank you. Holy shit, can
42:00
you fucking believe it? This
42:03
is crazy! Can you believe it?
42:05
Someone asked us what we want to eat? So
42:08
fucking cool! I thought he was gonna ask us to
42:10
go get it! Shut up and work it on my hominies! What
42:13
was that? I'm working on my
42:15
hominies! Sinky lopards! Girls, girls,
42:17
we're gonna have fun, not have a
42:19
goddamn headache! She's a fucking cunt! She's
42:22
such an asshole! Oh my
42:24

42:26
mean and who's nice! Oh god!
42:31
Oh wait, wait, wait, take a picture, make it look
42:33
like you're taking a picture of me, but take a
42:35
picture of me with Cindy Lauper behind me, okay? Okay,
42:38
okay, okay. Oh,
42:40
I need a picture for my photo album!
42:45
I got it, oh it looks amazing!
42:47
My hair is so high! Oh
42:49
my god. Hey,
42:54
how are you guys doing? Oh,
42:56
what, what, we're good? Yeah, we're good? What?
42:59
Yeah, we're good, we're good. I'm also not supposed to be
43:01
here. Oh! I'm
43:04
Kenny Rogers' hairdresser. Who
43:06
are you guys with? Oh, we're
43:08
with Hughie! Oh yeah. We
43:12
do his makeup? No, I- We're
43:15
actually in the band with the news. Yeah,
43:17
oh, you're the news! Yeah, we're
43:19
the news. Have you heard? We're
43:23
the news. Oh, good one. I guess you do that
43:25
joke a lot. Which, oh,
43:28
that's pretty funny! I should say
43:30
that more often! We should pitch
43:32
that to Hughie. I should pitch-
43:34
oh! Later, later all
43:36
the sloves are taking a break and
43:39
Hughie's back with the news. Oh
43:42
wow, looks like they're gonna give me one of the lyrics. For
43:44
instance, I'm gonna show up. Oh, you wanna
43:46
split that up or? With
43:49
you guys? My one lyric? Yeah,
43:51
maybe one word at a time!
43:54
Yeah. Hey,
43:57
hey man, I said you guys could
43:59
come! But you
44:01
know, come on, I get the full lyric.
44:03
Cool, cool. You got it Hugh. You got
44:06
it. I hear you guys were
44:08
pushing some news joke to
44:10
everybody and... Oh, so you've heard.
44:13
Is that it right there? That's hilarious
44:15
right Hugh. That's hilarious.
44:17
That's hilarious. That's hilarious. All
44:22
right, well Michael Jackson said he's ready to walk
44:25
if he hears it again. Oh, wow. Oh
44:28
God. And Carnes thinks
44:30
it's hilarious, which is bugging everyone
44:32
else. Oh, I love
44:34
her eyes. She's got...
44:37
Stop it! She's got... Stop
44:39
it! No, don't. She's got...
44:41
We can cut to later now.
44:44
They're pushing the Betty Davis, Kim Karen's
44:46
eyes. She's got Betty Davis' eyes! She's
44:49
got Betty Davis' eyes! Guys,
44:52
they're really trying to work on this hard when you're not getting
44:54
it down. You guys keep yelling out this
44:56
Betty Davis' eyes joke. Okay.
44:59
I just... I just feel like the
45:02
Swahili thing keeps going around in a circle.
45:05
I feel like we're the only one actually making progress
45:07
in the room right now. I'm gonna make you guys
45:09
go stand over there by Dan Aykroyd if you keep
45:12
fucking around. Oh, not by Dan. Oh,
45:14
come on. Not by Dan. Yeah,
45:16
the only non-singer in the
45:19
whole room. Wait,
45:21
because he gives Paul Simon hand
45:23
jobs. That's why he gets to be in
45:25
here. Okay, okay
45:27
now. The news
45:29
is getting surly. Ah,
45:32
we'll just report what's happening. Chewy Lewis
45:34
comes back over. What the fuck is going
45:36
on, guys? We're having a good
45:38
time, Ewie. We hear you're really starting fights. Hey,
45:41
we're having a good time. What
45:44
is the news? What is the news? Let
45:46
me ask news. What's
45:49
the news? The news is good.
45:52
The news is pumping. The news is making
45:54
moves. It seems like the
45:56
news is bad right now. It seems
45:58
like bad news. And Huey
46:00
needs good news. These are
46:03
a lot of important people. I'm very lucky
46:05
to be here. You're super lucky to be
46:07
here. They're lucky to have you Huey. They're lucky
46:09
to have you. You're the best Huey. They're lucky
46:11
to have you, man. They have no
46:13
idea. You're the saw here. You're the
46:16
saw. Later at the
46:18
craft service table, they find themselves next to
46:20
Kim Karns, who they've yet to make the
46:22
joke to. Hey, you
46:25
guys became Karns, right? Yes,
46:27
I am. I could tell. I
46:30
could tell because of your
46:32
mouth. You got trying
46:35
to carve a mouth. Ugh.
46:37
Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.
46:40
Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.
46:43
Ugh. Lean on the table.
46:45
It spills all over. Oh. Ugh.
46:47
Oh. Ugh. Crashed. Sorry. Damn.
46:50
Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Damn it. Is that
46:52
the news again? It is. The
46:55
fucking news. Sorry. If anybody wants
46:57
to meet both subs, we have
46:59
some extras. So, uh, sorry about
47:01
the... Alright, you guys gotta leave.
47:03
Gotta leave. You and Julie gotta leave right now.
47:06
Where we going? Where we going? Ow. I don't
47:08
care. Go to wherever Prince is. You gotta go.
47:11
Oh, man. Come on. Are you
47:13
kidding me? This
47:15
just in. This sucks. What
47:33
is your opinion? Ugh.
47:36
Humans. Do we enjoy any
47:38
Super Bowl ads? Don't
47:41
tell me you didn't watch that, Sebastian.
47:43
I did. I watched the Super Bowl.
47:45
Thank you. Finally. It's
47:47
just so many celebrity ads. It's
47:49
everyone is famous in the ads. It's
47:52
so funny how that has become the thing. It
47:56
used to be dear Humans who might be
47:58
younger. I remember in the Chicago... days,
48:00
Tammy, when,
48:02
and Chicago
48:05
is kind of, it has
48:08
a lot of advertising firms there. So
48:10
there is a lot of ads made
48:12
in Chicago. I assume that's still a
48:14
thing. So it
48:17
wasn't unusual to see
48:19
back in the early 90s, see a bunch of
48:22
people you knew are not a
48:24
bunch, but see someone in a Super Bowl
48:26
ad. And back then, it
48:28
meant you've
48:31
made a career leap
48:34
and people at least went, well, good for
48:36
so and so. That's two
48:38
years of cash and
48:41
a lot of prestige
48:43
from the commercial
48:46
audition circuit. It meant a lot of
48:48
stuff. And you'd watch, and I also
48:50
think you have to keep those ads
48:52
secret, especially if you're nobody, so
48:55
you wouldn't know until the, well, I
48:57
mean, not a celebrity. Of course. I
49:00
just wanted to call them a nobody. Now
49:02
they're doing trailers for ads that'll be in the Super Bowl.
49:08
But my point being, it was an
49:10
exciting, it was like a jackpot moment
49:13
and you would watch the Super Bowl
49:15
and make prop bets. Like I bet
49:17
I will know three
49:20
people in ads during the Super Bowl.
49:22
I bet I know four and that
49:24
would be the bet, right? I've
49:27
always done that since Chicago every year
49:29
with my wife. We'll
49:33
do that bet of like, let's see
49:35
how many people we know. But at
49:37
some point, it became a whole different
49:39
bet. It
49:42
used to be, there's Brian Husky
49:44
and holy shit,
49:47
good for him. And now it's like,
49:50
ah, well, there's Aubrey Plaza and there's
49:52
Jason Sudeikis. I know him. And
49:55
it's like, it's not exciting. That
49:57
is fun. No. Final
50:00
Messi. Maybe Mike's a friend. Yeah,
50:02
but still. Sure. I
50:06
felt the same when Anthony Hopkins showed up. My
50:10
buddy. And now the joke is
50:12
like how many they can stick in an
50:14
ad. Yeah. It's crazy.
50:16
It feels like those Gary Marshall movies that
50:18
were like Valentine's Day or New
50:20
Year's Day where they would just
50:22
have every celebrity film for
50:25
two days on a movie. Yeah. And
50:28
that's why Julia Roberts and Robert
50:31
De Niro. At
50:34
some point, it doesn't even matter that
50:36
you have celebrities in these commercials because
50:38
that's just every commercial. Yeah. It's
50:40
almost like a commercial without a celebrity stands out. I
50:44
also feel like it used to be with
50:46
Super Bowl commercials, if they were great, then they
50:48
would be rerun through the year. So that was
50:50
the other reason it was worth like so
50:53
much money is because then it would have a
50:55
ton of airtime. And now the
50:57
celebrities are so huge that they're not
50:59
rerunning these commercials. They just
51:01
sort of live on in the
51:04
internet, but they don't actually get a lot
51:06
of play on TV after Super Bowl. That's
51:10
true. That's true. Does it feel
51:12
like Bill Murray had one a few years
51:14
ago, that Grandhog Day one? Oh,
51:17
yeah. It's Super Bowl and Never Again.
51:21
So you can get screwed as an actor for that
51:23
too. They're hoping the celebrity puts
51:25
it on their social and that's what – and
51:27
after that, it's just dead. Yeah.
51:32
And they've been casting like influencers as
51:34
like people with one line rather than
51:36
like actors because
51:38
they hope they'll promote it on their social too
51:41
for Super Bowl ads. Yeah. The
51:43
thing with Chicago too is like especially
51:46
because I also didn't know a ton
51:48
of people, it would also be like,
51:50
I recognize that person. I
51:52
saw them like they would – just
51:54
the fact that they were from Chicago
51:56
felt meaningful. Like they weren't even like
51:58
a friend or anything. be somebody that I
52:01
saw on stage and I... Yeah,
52:03
you feel like you're rooting for the underdog in a way.
52:06
A million percent. So the, you
52:09
know, things go in cycles
52:11
and so if I can
52:13
have you all the nobodies into the... Let's
52:18
just get everybody into the audition room,
52:20
every nobody in here. Just
52:22
step into the cattle car.
52:26
Just come into the main room and then we'll
52:28
go back into the waiting room once I just
52:30
give you guys all every nobody
52:32
in general know because it's the first time
52:35
we're doing this in a while working
52:37
with non-celebrities. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Oh, coming
52:39
through, coming through. Get someone open a
52:41
window, it's very crowded. Sorry about that,
52:43
I got a little cough. Okay
52:48
everyone, today is very
52:51
exciting because Coca-Cola is
52:53
going to do a commercial during
52:56
the Super Bowl with... Whoa.
52:59
My eyes. Non-celebrities,
53:03
unrecognizable
53:06
nobodies and that being used. Let's
53:08
all give ourselves a hand for not
53:10
being recognized or known
53:12
by anyone. It
53:14
feels so great to be such a loser. Now
53:20
now, you're not a loser, we can't all
53:22
be losers, right? We're just not celebrities and
53:25
that's kind of the vibe. Yeah.
53:27
We're trying to give off this
53:30
year because it's not going to be
53:32
Bill Murray or Gwyneth
53:34
Paltrow or Mr. Beast. I
53:37
love Mr. Beast. Mr. Beast is my
53:39
favorite actor. I
53:41
love him so much. I signed up for his classes.
53:44
Yeah, me too. Had to make a
53:46
video while you hide in the coffin. Wow.
53:52
No, not this year. It's not going to
53:54
be that coke. We're kind of
53:56
flipping the script. Next year
53:58
we're just going to have no. normal people.
54:00
How about I call you guys normal
54:02
instead of nobodies? That sounds
54:04
better. I
54:08
guess I've never been
54:10
called normal before. Get
54:14
off my foot. Oh, sorry about
54:16
that. I liked it. That's not normal.
54:19
What we're going to do is we're going to have you come
54:21
in one at a time and
54:23
just simply say why
54:26
you like Coca-Cola and just try
54:28
to be as normal. As
54:30
possible. You don't, you're not Mel
54:34
Gibson or
54:37
Neil Armstrong or
54:40
Jimmy Page. Okay. You're just regular
54:43
people. Okay. I
54:45
don't know who those last two were.
54:49
Neil Armstrong, like the man who walked on the moon.
54:53
You're not him, are you? Okay. Okay.
54:56
Okay. Okay. So they go back out and they
54:58
come in one at a time. Next.
55:02
Is that your name? Hey, how
55:04
you doing? I'm Sal. Your
55:08
first and last name. Oh, we
55:10
just have to make sure we
55:13
don't recognize it. Of course. Yeah.
55:15
I'm Sal DeFonte. Okay. No idea.
55:17
Okay. That's good. Nice. You're
55:22
doing a good job buddy. Thanks. I
55:26
kind of, I was here on a pizza delivery and
55:28
they said, they said, who are you? Instead of just,
55:30
I'm here to give pizza and they say, oh, we might have
55:33
a job for you. So I just came in. Okay.
55:35
Good. Cool. All you gotta do
55:37
is look straight into that camera in front of
55:39
you and you say, why you like Coca-Cola. Uh,
55:43
uh, Hey I'm Sal. I like Coca-Cola
55:46
cause the bubbles in my mouth. I like the
55:48
bubbles. Okay.
55:52
Can you give us a second over here? We just need to
55:54
talk just a second. Do you want me to come over there?
55:56
No, no, no, no, no. Okay.
55:59
Amongst. ourselves. Just think of things.
56:01
Yeah, I like it. I like
56:03
it a lot. He's a real fart
56:06
in his pants kind of vibe too.
56:08
Yeah, yeah. At first I was like, this
56:10
is too Jodie Foster.
56:12
This is too Tom Cruise. Yeah,
56:14
yeah. Then he was very normal.
56:17
I like it. Yeah, yeah. Absolutely.
56:19
I think it's, I think it feels real. Hey,
56:22
can we get that one more time for
56:24
me? Sorry about that. There
56:27
was coke here, so I just grabbed, I
56:29
took a set, my bed, I didn't get
56:31
it, you know, bubbles up. Oh, we love
56:34
it. We love it. That's really. We love
56:36
you being you, my friend. Thanks. We
56:39
loved how you really got into
56:41
being just normal and you, and
56:43
well, if I can say it, of
56:45
a real nobody right there near the end of
56:47
what you were talking about, especially the bubbles in
56:50
the mouth. Can we do that
56:52
one more take? Just
56:54
you being you. Nice. Hey,
56:59
I got
57:01
a Nissan Ultima. It's
57:04
about seven years old. I
57:08
say I don't need
57:10
carbs, but I do. And
57:13
I like coke. And
57:15
we see this is now playing in Times
57:17
Square up on one of those big screens.
57:19
And it's just, do you
57:21
see that? Yeah, that's that new coke guy.
57:24
He's the best. He's so normal. He's
57:27
like me. We see
57:29
Jodie Foster and Mel
57:31
Gibson and Neil Armstrong. That's
57:39
one giant step for a normal
57:41
man. And
57:45
we cut to a New York bar
57:47
where this Sal is
57:49
showing up. It's his
57:51

1:00:03
really? Yeah, because I kept my maiden
1:00:05
name Campbell. Ah,
1:00:08
Fig Campbell. Sorry about that. Like
1:00:11
the soup. Wait, are you part of the soup
1:00:14
family? If
1:00:16
you could not tell anyone, I've really been trying
1:00:19
to be normal. Kind
1:00:21
of being normal is kind of the thing now.
1:00:23
Yeah. Yeah. I mean,
1:00:25
I've been from the Campbell conglomerate
1:00:28
enterprise, you know? And
1:00:32
he became one of the normal celebs
1:00:35
that became the new fad. And
1:00:37
we got to a convention like five years
1:00:39
in the future where it's all these guys
1:00:42
that boost who are completely normal and people
1:00:44
trying to get their autographs. Hey,
1:00:46
hey, hey, you're my favorite normal guy.
1:00:49
I've always wanted to meet you in
1:00:51
person. This is a huge thrill. Oh,
1:00:53
cool. Sorry. I get trail mix on my hands. Yeah,
1:00:57
I get trail mix on my hands too,
1:01:00
man. That is so fucking cool, man. You're
1:01:02
so like me. I also like bubbles from
1:01:04
Coke in my mouth. You do, right? That
1:01:06
makes it different than water. Yeah,
1:01:09
that's what I... Exactly. That's what
1:01:11
I used to say. That's what I used
1:01:13
to say. Yeah. Man, it's so inspiring. I
1:01:16
just want to say, man, I don't know how many people say
1:01:18
this, but you inspire me to
1:01:20
not aim for
1:01:22
anything and just keep status
1:01:25
quo. Thanks, dude. Of
1:01:28
course, of course, man. It's
1:01:31
nice. Yeah, I was going to
1:01:33
be in med school for a
1:01:36
lot of years, but I
1:01:38
hear that they're running out of doctors. Yeah,
1:01:41
they have been the last five
1:01:43
years. That's normal. Yeah,
1:01:46
it's just a lot of people that are...
1:01:48
Just sing or act or be
1:01:51
a doctor anymore. Nah, just
1:01:53
a lot of people. The lines of
1:01:55
Applebee's is always around the corner. It's
1:01:57
crazy. I got a reservation. because
1:02:00
I'm a well-known normal but it's
1:02:02
just like all there are starting
1:02:04
to be tiers of normal though there
1:02:07
are yeah right like not
1:02:09
everyone could get into targets like
1:02:12
only like the elite normals could get into target
1:02:14
now yeah I don't like
1:02:16
that I want to be an elite normal
1:02:18
I feel more like
1:02:22
a normal normal to be frank yeah
1:02:26
I mean I start to be a
1:02:28
normal normal but I mean
1:02:30
people know me that's why I have the Stanley Cup
1:02:46
let's talk some more about that Brett
1:02:49
do you even know what a Stanley Cup is hockey
1:02:53
right you see
1:02:55
he doesn't know is that you
1:02:58
that is the Stanley Cup it
1:03:01
has to be what it's named after it's
1:03:04
a new fan Brett I don't
1:03:06
know about it last week oh
1:03:08
yes the this I think of
1:03:10
them as like mugs yeah the
1:03:12
Stanley tumblers yeah yeah but they're
1:03:14
called Stanley cups my friends kid
1:03:17
got one as a birthday present
1:03:19
like this little girl is like this is
1:03:22
yeah what a weird thing to give like
1:03:24
a year old little
1:03:27
girls are like obsessed with it I
1:03:29
watched all these like videos from Christmas
1:03:31
time where parents would purposely give the
1:03:33
wrong Stanley Cup to their kids watch
1:03:35
the kid cry and like fake light
1:03:37
like I know it's okay and then
1:03:39
like reveal the good Stanley Cup wait
1:03:41
you mean like a knockoff Stanley Cup
1:03:43
yeah they'll get them like a hydro
1:03:46
flask and be like that's what you
1:03:48
wanted right and
1:03:51
the kids will like cry be like yeah
1:03:53
yeah this was perfect and like
1:03:55
pretend while being so sad
1:03:58
it's so weird to be
1:04:00
so wildly out of a fad to be
1:04:04
like, do you know what I mean? It's
1:04:08
like the fact that hydro
1:04:10
flask is a hilarious non-thing to
1:04:12
get. It
1:04:16
feels very surreal. I
1:04:19
do want to try a Stanley Cup, but
1:04:21
you can't really ask. You can't
1:04:23
be like, hey, could I, because there's a
1:04:25
strong- Why, why in theory
1:04:28
is it better? That's what I want
1:04:30
to know. I want to- It's
1:04:32
weird because those giant thermos things
1:04:35
have been around for so long, like in
1:04:37
popular culture I feel, or the Yetis and
1:04:40
the big water bottles. I have the Yeti.
1:04:42
I do love- It's like, what's different about
1:04:44
the Stanley? Yeah, what is? I
1:04:46
do love my Yeti tumbler. I'm not
1:04:49
going to lie. Is it just shaped differently,
1:04:51
but does it serve the same purpose? What
1:04:55
I heard is that, so there's these influencers
1:04:57
online that do these videos where they, like,
1:05:00
make fun water. Basically, they take like, you know how
1:05:02
there's like the mixes that you could put into water?
1:05:05
And every day they'll put new mixes into
1:05:08
water like a new method. Right.
1:05:11
Perfect. I do want you
1:05:13
just to say water and have that be
1:05:15
my ringtone for that. You
1:05:17
know what? I met someone who made me
1:05:20
record a voicemail for them once who said,
1:05:22
hey, how you doing? You called
1:05:24
blah, blah. She's busy probably getting
1:05:26
coffee or water out here. Like,
1:05:29
literally made me say words
1:05:31
like that. I never felt
1:05:33
so, like, objectified. Yeah,
1:05:36
that's mean, Tammy. Yeah, I
1:05:38
feel so objectified by my mouth. No,
1:05:41
I like this. It was cute. It was cute.
1:05:43
When people are making levels
1:05:46
and having fun with their water,
1:05:48
where do they do that? In
1:05:51
the kitchen? Yeah. It's
1:05:54
their kitchen. Yeah. Obama
1:06:05
got a power. He makes
1:06:07
Obama crystal lights. We
1:06:10

1:13:13
Am I missing out on that? It's
1:13:17
a pretty good game. Yeah, maybe
1:13:19
we are. I don't know what to do there.
1:13:21
It's tough to put long form improv on there.
1:13:24
Yeah. Okay. People
1:13:26
just like, I like pickle. And everyone goes,
1:13:28
it's true. He likes pickle. People

If you like long-form improv.
1:14:09
Humans, I would like to come to
1:14:11
your city with Improv for Humans, but
1:14:14
the way we're gonna do that is with
1:14:16
the 40 fan initiative, Brett. If
1:14:19
we can find 40 fans in one city
1:14:22
outside of LA and New York, like
1:14:25
Chicago's already there, so I'm gonna have to book a
1:14:27
date there. But these other
1:14:29
cities, if we can get 40
1:14:31
subscribers to improvforhumans.com, I
1:14:34
will come there and do a show and a workshop. So
1:14:38
Seattle, Portland,

1:15:07

That's nothing, I'd be insulted. But
1:15:51
you see what I'm saying here. I'm not
1:15:54
