Law Supplies last ends june thirtieth terms at aka. mS slash collllege PC a lonely island There's that kase Y are really happy you made it. You hosted a wedding at your house last night. We did. It was probably one hundred and twenty people here last night. Was it hard to host a wedding with a phone that doesn't receive or send text. Oh, that's a great question. Yeah, because people could just shout to me from across the yard. I see, I see, I see. So overall the wedding's easier than a podcast is what you're saying? is what we're getting at. Oh yeah, Daf. D deaf. Becauseuse like we knew you hosted a wedding, but we were like, oh must have been Maybe accidentally Yorm like threw his phone when they were supposed to throw a bouquet, and that's why we haven't heard from. I wasn't just hosting the weddings? I was officiating the wedding as well. That's why I was distracted sure, sure. Yeah, no.. We were just looking for like a yay or nay of is this happening or not? J like a single song yet here I am and where doth Andy be? No, fair that's a fair hit. I mean, I think Kev and I are in the cl how that works. Keve was texting with your wife this morning trying to figure out if you were doing the pot. Yes, I feel like Let's just make it clear if that threshold gets crossed with Alexi, the pod's over. I was stumbling around the yard. Stumbling shing all the fireworks that I blew up And then then she was like, arere you getting on the pot? I was like, Ohh yeah, I guess so. Right, right And ye so convenient.y. so ye. Yes. But shout out to my cousin, Katie and Will, who just got married, my new cousin, Will, too. That's great. Wa What what did Forte do? Oh, well, Forte, who was not getting married, did they had these little stations. They're a very creative couple and they had these little stations that you had to collect stamps for. So there's five different stations and there's one that there's phone that you can pick up And leave a message for the couple and they're gonna listen to it in like thirty years. I don't know why it was thirty years. I like it. I like it. And then of course, I was like, Ohh it'd be fun if we got, know somebody to send a little message to like explain it when you pick up the receiver. And so of course, Forte was the nicest man in life and was like,, this is Hollywood's W Fortte. Does Forte know them? Noope. So Forte's basically like a human genie You don't need to find his lamp and it's infinite wishes instead of three. Yeah, right? Like basically anything you ask Will for you don't have to know him, you don't have to have like freed him from a lamp. He'll just basically give infinite wishes. He'll disappear and like talk to your grandma for a half an hour. Yeah, go. Perfect.et man. Hi, Andy. Hi Andy. Jan, did I ever hear you saying you beat me as I got on Yeah, that was he been Yeah, you were late. but it was impressive because I didn't even know this was happening about fifteen minutes. Why would you? Yeah ye. 'use you were non responsive for four straight days. A yo. A yo. I don't know if you like are gonna be surprised by this, but I don't even know where my phone is right now. Baked it into the wedding cake. Oh no. And it's the end of the week right? Like this would be when your radar would go up like, oh no, it's probably today. And Keve had your back. Keve was the one who was like, he's got a big old wedding at his house. He was trying his very best I was defending defend. guuy number one fucking comes through. But I would say around nine AM this morning, it became indefensible. Yeah justust because we didn't need really indefensible and I love you very much The thing that detracts from this is if you saw me lighting off like fireworks last night, like a little tipsy, you'd be like Well fuck this. Well, this guy could have checked his phone once and just been like, I'll be there. But here's the thing Kep, I did not know where my phone was at that point. Yeah, you still don't. Well, thank you Kari. Candy, did you are you rapp No. Okay. How much more you got? A couple of days? Yeah, three more days. Oh, three more. Three more days? That's good. A lot of people thought Andy was in a great mood, the last podcast. A lot of people were like, Ohh my Godd, episode one hundred sixteen answers the question, how many of these we have to do before Andy likes it? That's not true. He hit that a while ago. It was a real one and done. I thought the last two episodes he was in a mood you were if I made the ob that you were like Robert De Niro in Awakening. We had a like brief moment where you were like catching baseballs and kind of like me being in a good or not good mood based on like the vibe in the pot is basically like I'm the Richard Dreyfus and what about Bob? I see Yeah. Yeah. You know what I mean? And like if you're watching the movie, you're just like this poor fucking guy. But if you don't see what's happen Rroden, you're the Charles Groden in Clifford No doubt about it. By the way, three Clifford Shout out Cifford see Clifford. Clifford. Shout out Clifford, go see Clifford.efinitely watch Clifford. Clifford. Yeah, in theaters this weekend. Martin Short, Charles Groden, Martin Short Hilarious Clifford. Plays a small like maybe a thirteen year old. I don't know where what the target is younger. Younger, younger. likeike a ten year old eight year old He's got a red sweater. It's amazing. You can't believe it's a movie and it's not good, but it's well I guess's what you just said. There are moments of absolute inspiration. There's the algorithm every now and then serves me the scene where Charles Groden is just telling him to act normal. Yeaht he can't make his face normal. It's really something else. He's like, be a human boy. Be a human being Wh which is such a funny thing because they've cast a non boy it's like almost meta. He's mad at the director. Can you just be a human being for one second? And it's like Marn George's eyes just going. So go see Clifford this weekend. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'm pretty sure it's back in theaters this weekend but you have to check your local listings. Yeah. Do yourself a favor. This is very exciting. I'm just gonna get into it. You guys know I'm a gearhead. I'm pretty much reading car and driver first thing Sunday morning. Y.. New story dropped a couple hours ago. Do you guys know what I'm talking about? Has anybody seen this Is Is it about my van? Here's the headline. A Lonely Island member bought this sweet dragon themed JDM key van. Oh shit. I was kidding. Full article in car and driver. What about your van? No way. No that's not true. It is very true. And here I'll put it in the chat. And by the way, I thought it was just gonna to be like an aggregated article.. That is not what Like an AI one, What do they just kind of bullshit or now, I'm giving out the inaugural quate of the week Brendon Mcalar from Curring D., they got this is from the shop and everything. This is cool. This is like yeah, I haven't even seen this photo. Oh here. Can I read you a few lines Please It's a Japanese market Kjidosha van, one of the ubiququid Tuss little movers, which can be identified by its righteous grill. Oh shit While doing press over your dead by at Dark comedy directed by Dak Cony and released last month, he told a story of how he came to own the wacky little van justust a couple of days ha an undergone major surgery on his spine and pelvis while hopped up on heavy pain medications. He jumped on the internet and started browsing for JDM cards. Ordinarily, that'd be the seed of a terrible decision What's funny than driving a tiny van around NYC, driving one that's entirely covered in a dragon themed livery that's truly Kablamo. Oh, this is sweet.s that's a real fan. In this case, it's the kind of burrito brained move that's endlessly pleasing to anyone who loves when the Lonely Island takes a silly concept or runs with. I feel like my character on the pod is getting a little wackier than maybe I am in real life Or maybe not. Maybe this is who I am. This is amazing Yeah. Yeah, it's a great. It it looks awesome. That's so tight. Like those pictures are rd U someomebody had one last shot out that I'm surprised we haven't heard. Maybe we haven' and I missed a name for your van. Oh, what is it? Dieter Van Kunh. Oh, that's very good hard to argue Deter Van Kunn, the Dragon wagon. It's It can be Deter Van Kunt's Colon, the Daggon wagon I'm going run through a few things before we get to just had sex part two. We do know to our listeners, we do know what we're supposed to be doing. It's fine. It'll be in the title of the episode. They'll know from that. Yeah, that's true Hey, Mitra Juhari, am I saying that right, Andy? Yeah coostar and indignmment. Yeah. She's so funny. Absolutely. Somebody said, did you notice Mitra was the special guest when Sarah Sherman was on good hang with Amy. So Metra like did the calling and ask questions. Oh. And I don't listen to podcasts. Right, R, right. But people said like, hey I can't believe Mitra was on and Amy didn't mention Digman once. Yeah, what the hell Amy? Yeah. And it really was. like I didn't realize the rivalry was still this heated. Yeah. like Polar is just definitely trying to like bad hang us at every turn. Yeah. she's anti quid. I think if anymy ever starts listening to podcasts, we should stop doing this podcast Oh yeah, Well, he'll have a lot of notes all of a sudden. Yeah, of a sudden he'll go, know what other podcasts do? You know what they do is they don't just ramble for twenty minutes. They' like be on camera and make money.. Andy missed it because Andy was shooting a movie but speaking of Polar, me and Shumak. I was so bummed. Saw Dr, Maya, and Par. We were supposed to see Anna and Anna got food poisoning midway through a show. had to go home. that. That's why when you're on Broadway. Whenever I'm on Broadway, I stick to the same meals every day. I figure out what works Somet really basic, like a tuna sandwich or something. Well ' you learned that from Pivven. when Pivven had to miss time with the sush. That was from the Mercury poisoning. You don't want to have a random lunch and then find yourself in the middle of Shmigadun wanting to take a Mump. Tony awward winning Smiga poop. If you always say, you gotta watchh your you when you're on Broadway, so you own broader Broader than Broadway. la. The peak Broadway for me is being in a bar and having Dratch and Maya walk in together post show singing on Broadway And in a way too like you can do it as loud as you want. Like what person in a Broadway bar doesn't see the two of them singing on Broadway and just break into the biggest fucking grin? Yeah. That's what you hope happens every night. It's winning. It's winning. I thought you werere gonna to say breakout in song with them. you might as well. I thought you were gonna to say the entire bar joined suit. Where was it? Was it Sardis? Does Sardis still exist? It does, but it was well we'll bleep it You know what it's not gonna to work really good for your we love Strawns or what what's the name of your website? Yeah yeah I want Straongs that we bleep all the straongs? Yeah. Should we put all the restaurants that we do but the names are censored on every single one? Everything's blurred out. Full description of it. Pictures of the food, but the outsidees' blurred. do we gatekeep the straonts why're gate keeping the stumps? You know what? donon't believe? Let the world hear what we. I like it. It's funnier to gatekeep the restaurants while operating like a yelp that gate keepeps the restaurants. Can I say where I went last night? Thankks to Seth? Yes, S where went last night. My dear friend Seth Lee got me a table at one of the hardest restaurants in all of New York, evenven though he wasn't in town. He helped me hook it up And obviously we would bleep this, but it was Yeah Yeah. I mean, and I genuinely I cannot tell everyone on this pot and everyone listening just how happy I was to know I still had that pull. Damight. Yeah, that's cool. Yeah. I mean, again, it helped that it was like pulling for Andy. Like I mean, I dropped your name. Yeah as well. And like hit us in the tis King of New York, Brunson or Myers My son told me that he heard from a friend at school that now there's a Bodega sandwich called the Brunson because like a kid was interviewing and he told him what he gets a bodegas. Oh. I don't believe this is true, but it was told. So what kind of sandwich? At least some bodega. Itm wasost like everything bagel, I think. Sathered in success. You said hit us in the Tittus. someomebody did suggest It doesn't quite work as well, but I appreciate the effort Pinkus and the dingus. Oh. I think that actually works quite well. Yeah, we might have to start saying that Well, you have to say like, you can't say Pingus because dingus like, well, no actually Pingus and the Dingus. Pingus and the Dingus. You just can't say Dingus. Yeah, Pingus and the Dingus though. Got Dingus highighly underutilized. Yeah. And I mean, if you're not using it, it might be lost to the world. But you got to use it right. You know what I mean? Dude. And part of the reason why I was so excited for you to see the van is just to be able to use the word Dinky with you ' I just feel like you Oh yeah that word a lot. It a Dinky doodle. Yeah. It's a Dinky doodle and it's carrying a little Dinky Doodle dandy U Wait, I got some more before we can just had Seth. hold on. Oh recipes. I just had Seth. That is exactly what it sounded like he said. Yeah. It's weird to say your own name by accident. Like I never would be like by accident and call one of you Akiva. That's like the one way I wouldn't slip. Do you think this gu There's only one person who could do it I don't wan to like talk about your personal life, but you think your wife after she workors, you sings I just had, Seth? Oh yeah. Probably quietly. We b like humes it in in between sobs. you think I' singing. How old is your youngest, Seth? My youngest is four and three quarters. So four years ago, you think she's sang that? Yeah four years and nine months.our fourour plus, three quarters, plus nine months Oh, Doubleles orers.. T it back. I do remember her in the shower hing back into my mind palace, My memory mind palace? Yeah. was m. And that was the last time, yes. Can I tell you a very my favorite like Economy Wds comment this week was I just had shhres Itun for the listeners. Three shumps. If any quQids want to, not using AI or whatever. Make a Hut Rd poster. Job of the Hut in Hut Rd. Oh sure. We'd love to take a look at that. Mike O'Brien, kind of the MVP of last week's pod. Oh fuck Did you hear he was a yeah did a goodbye at the end too? I was told and then checked it out. Yeahah. Very funny. So I do remember him. Yeahah. And somebody said, I feel like Andy is just learning O'Brien as a real person and not his Tyler Durden That's right. Oh I was gonna to say rest in peace and Sheiden who played the Mel of Ef. It is very sweet. how many people reached out to the pod ye. like a very funny lady. Chabasi was great on Ef. So a sincere rest in peace. Yes. And we recorded last week before that transpired, obviously. And what's your voice note I don't know. Jeff said that Greg Chun had sent something in. so whenever he does, it seems worthwhile to give it a listen. Yeah. let's do it You couldn't leave well enough alone, could you Hey shit sticks! It's Al Now I was a little myiff the first time you had a go at me and Max, but I get it. It's the business. You're doing your thing, But you had to bring that shit up again and now I'm fucking pissed. And while we're at it, why did't you lay off Max, al right? He had a rough go at it. He was a good man and sure he may have sped a little accounts or two for money, but that doesn't give you the right to turn him into a fucking pariah This is your last warning. Allright? Don't you ever talk shit about me on your show again, or I swear to God I will come down there and gouge out your eyeballs and shit little alien turns into your spckets I don't remember Al cursing so much. He wrroke something Rest in peace, Anne. her honor. Really good timing. This is a spot on Alf unsurprisingly. Yeah He's very good. guyss got the fact. I kept waiting for him to say the word Willie. I just feel like you have to say Willie. Willie Yeah. Yeah, but he was the real life Alf, not the Alf from the show. Correct. Yeah, the act Right R, right, right. Alfred. Wait, haveave you guys not actually seen the outtakes of Alf cursing constantly Pretty funny. Yeah, it's on the YouTube. Yeah, it's on the TTube. Somebody added a timestamp to last week's episode and it was helpful 'cause I think I just had sex. maybe some fresh ears showed up to the pod because it's such an iconic short. And so they said for the Quids start at zero minute, zero seconds for the pod Virgins, twenty four minutes, fifty four seconds. That's how long it took before we got to business. And they were like, that's when you're not just fucking super confused by shit tal All right, we are now into part two, just had sex And I had three comments that are specific to the short, but as I'm reading it, it's specific to any of your songs. Question about beats When you get sent beats by others, are you given some period of time to review and claim them or are they sent around to a bunch of people at the same time? Is there ever concern that someone else might be working on a song with the same beat Or is there a time Once you start developing a song that you can claim rights to a beat M Maybe so many beats are circulating any a given time. this is never concerned. That's a great question. and I don't know the answer. Keee, do you wantan to take it? Yeah, Ke. Yeah, we are concerned. and we definitely when we start working on one try to contact the producer immediately to put a hold on it. Gotch and have first dibbs. And we have gotten into situations in the past where we start on one, call the producer and find out that someone has beaten us to the punch The most interesting example is on Popstar with Karate Guy, where we had fully put it on hold, gotten through a version of the song And then it had taken so long to like put it out because we were making a whole movie that the producer had maybe forgotten. I mean, we weren't mad at them. They just were like, oh shit So anyways, there was a song and it has Lil Wayne on it, but it's from a different artist, but I'm blanking who it was at this exact moment. But anyway, so there are two songs out there. someomebody's going to find it for us, and it's Karate Guy and it's the exact beat from Karate Guy. And the way theirs head was way ahead of us and the way that the producer and everyverybody gratefully made it work for us is if you look at the credits of Karate Gy, it's as if we sampled their song this Lil Wayne song, even though really we both all worked off the same be. beat at the same time, but since his went out first, you had to make that was like we had sampled this song. Gotcha. And when you sort of plan a flag on a beat, just to go back to our listener's question, like what is the timeline that a producer will give you? Or is it kind of like a good faith thing of like you start working out I think the deal, like if this song does end up getting released, here's what we'll pay you for it and here's how many percentage points if we're going to share some of the ownership or whatever it is, all the details. So they know. so there gets to be a contract in place. And then they can, I guess put a time limit on it, but I don't think we usually because it just takes so long for stuff to come out sometimes. But they are being sent to many, many artists all over the world, probably. And I mean, a lot of these producers that we're sort of fucking with are very high end producers. so I don't know if it's like very selective of who they go to or like But it's never there was never a case where producers like, Hey, Lonely Island, here are twenty beats I made for you guys. And I love you this. Sometimes sometimes sometimes if we've developed a relationshipr we put the word out through our reps like Lonely Island are recording looking for songs and sometimes we'll get tracks from people being like, Lonely Island, demo one, deemo two. and it's just it's ones that they made. They got inspired by hearing that we were looking for beats And sometimes we willll actually put the feelers out to be like we want it to be big and anthemic. And it's very rare that we do this, but like we have done it once or twice. And then the only other beat that I can remember that was I think for Yolo BOB, I think had claimed that beat and then we had to like sort of negotiate like of can we have it because we really love it I think' pronounnce Bob ? I'm just kidding. Right? Well, I like it. I like when Andy like just midbe pops up for a zinger. Oh, no, I'm long done with the B And I'm not gonna to say what happened until the end. obbviously that's what everyone's waiting for. Yeah. I know, I've been trying to figure out what the fucking Wayne song was. It's so weird though, because randomly the L Wayne song was also called Karate Gy, but it was a totally different premise. He didn't like to kick it. No Interesting. Same title, totally different pro. Interesting. Mister Dabelina, Who does mister Dabelina? Dell the Funky Homa city. Y. I'm so impressed you knew that, Teth. It came on like a mix, like a hip hop mix I was listening to yesterday and it's so much fun. I can't believe you know that song. That Genuinely really, this is so so fun U Bob, maybe think of it because it is pronouced Bob. All right, so we're about to watch. We have not watched. I just had sex One listener wrote in Quid said, I search for the song to watch it in preparation for part two and YouTube's first video result was an ad for a june twenty fifth James Taylor concert. So according to the Met group at Live Nation, if you like the Lonely Island Acon and parody raps about intercourse, you will love the harmonically rich and intricate melodies of sweet Baby James I that's true. How many of you guys did two shorts with James Taylor? I can't remember. So I believe it's Wh I Do It by August Alsina. Oh, August Alcina. Yeah, I think I found it Wh I do it Yeah. Wh I do itnt. This is why I do it boom boom boom B This right away. Say me. Oh, go Grz. go that's where to be Get' mad Two wees come funy I don't think that's real Sky smash it up I like to kick it. I'm a karate guy. Fuck me. to the city with a band b for me. This is my karaoke s. Thiss Macaha I out to my negers. T did a grand I my little animation to any video is such an upgrade. And when I say Kicky, I don't mean using your foot. It was actually the line that had to fuck up our own lyers. No, you're fine. Do think they turned on each other when they heurard karate guy 'cause it was so much better. Why didn't we just do that? I told you August Alcina could have easily been like, no, that's my beat. they can't use it likeike I'm sure it had to get all the way to him to have him say, Ohh yeah, that's fine. Let them do it because it would be completely within his rights to not let us sample his song essentially to make a whole new song? For sure. Do you think Monty from Universal Republic had to like get on the phone and be like, You gotta gotta' August. I mean, the real question now is will he be rewarded in this moment and get a massive quampp? right? Yeah. Is there going to be a quamp on the song Why I Do it featuring Little Wayne. Would you say he's an August gentleman Is that something you would say? Yes, Yes? Yes. Both of you. Yeah. Both of Y and I,es. Kv would. No, Kiv would never. No, that's not in my purview. He wouldn't dare. Support goes to Willie's remedy. Are you tired of waking up hungover and worrying about what happened last night? Yes Well, guess what? Guess what? Not to be named A co reader.

Look at that beautiful sunset, that roof, look at how worth it it was, That roof, look how worth it was. We got there exactly at the right time of day. Anybody else would assume we're on a green screen at this point. music video looks. like I look look at my hair I'm wearing a sweater vest Not to wet the palette anymore. It's still ten s better than I wish it would rain which will be my favorite rooftop shop. forthcoming But here let's start where we stopped, which is it's the coldest day of the year in like twelve years And Yormanized faces are frozen. Frozen s. mine is bright red and that's after the color correct. Yeah I remember I always have my shot list when I'm directing with a pen in my pocket and I take great joy in crossing off shots as we get them. And I remember taking off my glove and I couldn't get my hand to write. L it was frozen. it couldn't hold the pen Literally could not hold it. I wish that segment could begin with Berl Ives. is that cllaymation snowman from Rudolph being Oh yeah. Now remember, it was the coldest day. It is not a music video looked at like we're wearing the wackest ear musks. Every time I see it, I'm like, maybe it would have been worth that just like really pick the shots and like take them off for one second. It's also crazy because it looks kind of like greenscreen Like the fact they're on top of the Metlife building. That's why I mean anythingthing else, this would be a big LED screen or a green screen behind you showing this, but we're just that's just a real sh I just say one thing I busted you guys for the earmouses and a couple quids said like the earmouses add to what makes it work so well, which is you guys are like dorky. R. Deinitely dorkyi ear than It's a reminder, you guys aren't like the fucking bone squad. That guys are guys were like probably had sex once and you still wear earmouths. Yeah, that's fair You know, we did kind of want to split the diff. Yes,'s good it's good diff split. Thank you so much for saying that. Yeah, you're welcome. bestest smile on the planet, this dude. But Chrysler Building right behind us so cool. Yeah alsoso, this Chryser builduilding are famously kind of litigious that they own the rights to their building being in stuff. You think that they're gonna sue us now? Should we just throw in a quick ad so they don't burn us? A Chross the Pacifica Hey, that's what we were talking about mininian. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. that's smart. That just p we just paay for it right there. So the other thing I remember just noticing how fucking cold my face looks. I'm just looking at Andy. M and Aon look very happy. And he looks like he's gonna kill himself. I'm in absolute agony. It's ten below zero. It's like somebody just told Andy, you know, in fifteen years you're going to be talking about this on a podcast Yeah. I was like, o no. I like no. you could see what I assume is the Hudson, but I don't know which way we're fing. Soke stacks looking dope. Yeah. But the other thing I remember, so we're up there. obviously we're blasting you guys with lights and these are big heavy lights and it's so windy and freezing. They're like, we can't have anything above like five feet because it could blow off the building kill people down below because we are on again, I think at the time, the second highest building in all of New York City. And you know, you can't have anything flopping off the side. and We had had plans to have things way up high to make things look different. I don't remember what. And this is getting towards the other things that had to go way up high were Andy Yorman and Akon, which we will get to in a second. Y. Can I just say it does seem like the making of this is like the negative image to the sensation of having sex. Yeah just like the It's also weird in filmmaking where sometimes you feel like people are being like nervous neellies and you're like, it's fine. This was like Yeah, don't put the lights up high. It was like this is so dangerous. It felt scary. I mean, look, they're at the edge of the building here. That it was just happily scary. Not okay. There they are Barely move. Id like seeing this one because we can really see. So we built a platform so that you guys would be higher which also feels dangerous because if you go to the back of that, now you're over the balcony railing That's correct. Yeah. That's ill advised. I'll advise. I can't believe they let us do it to tell you. A big gust of wind would have been our end. I'd love to look at a fan edit of this where every time it cuts to a three shot, your arma blows away Now Keith, ye, the editing and the energy of this really works and feels really intentional. But correct me if I'm wrong. Acon's face was so cold, he couldn't move his mouth to do the lyrics. So we had to really fudge together each shot to get like the shape of words And then anytime he's not on camera, we don't have it, right? Yeah in the course. Every time he wasn't on camera, you put his head in the microwave? Is that There was a little like, you know, on a roof where there's the top of the stairs where there's one door where you can pop out. There was that and he would run back into it between each every day To answer your quest, Ady. C correct. And I recall this was one of the earlier videos when cameras got to be four K instead of two K. Yes in terms of the quality. popp We were like shooting in full four K, but the show just, you, broadcast said HD, so we don't need four K ended up being one spectacular take of Acon, where he hit it all And we end up using that for almost everything, cutting in and out of that same one Yeah to make it feel like coverage and energy. Well, and just to get nerd nerdy for a second, HD quality is just under two K. is that? So basically the math is that if you bump in from four K to like double it You're still at two K. Yeah, we're still at full quality as long as the focus was Sharp. Yeah, you can blow it up two hundred percent and still be at full quality. Not to split hairs yarn, but fourour minus two or four divided by two is not that nerdy.. You didn't even want to get. I feel like it's pretty standard. The math is pretty it's tricky stuff. This't mean it's still talking. Well HD is a little below two K. That was where you were crossing it That's the interesting part. All right. seven minutes on your on your tiny tiny wrapped van. It's like, hey,, we might get a little nerdy. Fair ds, my br. My mate my brv, fair ds. Oh that's so cool. Cross the pond Ansex, I have' it felt great. It feels so good. We're down in Soho, I believe. Or maybe Tbeu in P Soo and just a nice apartment they found that we got to like a loft that we just got to use. And it was cheap because there was no heat and no windows. Both of me and Andy in this video are heavily caked in makeup. Yeah, he looks crazy right there. I look crazy in this video, neverever been happy about it. It was that one first setup, it was way too much. It was someone we hadn't worked with before and it made me look like I had plastic surgery or something We loved working with these music video crews legitimately because we were so used to scraping by at SNL where we were still operating within the cracks of SNL, Nothing like how it is now So to have dedicated crew to us was always so exciting, but it meant that we were working with people we didn't know who might do something like that I think it's possible that I was like lightly sick and or hung overver or tired or something and they were trying to fix that. Yes. I think you were. Yeah. Yeah, you look like you might have a cold to me. I think it's highly likely considering we on the roof of the Met life building in negative for degrees. And Andy has like no defenses against colds? No know I' a fragile little little flower especially back then. is my curse. This though, I do remember being totally comfortable. It was like just being in a really nice apartment. Yeah, it was awesome. It was a big space. Yeah, we we sa have both of the bedroom scenes here. Yeah, we just kind of turned around and used the other side of the same room. I did it with my penis. Girl let me do it. It literally just happen it s you make a nice man How did that happen? Da the show, I think. So we've got John McNroe being The before is he's the meanest and then he turns into a nice man with two thumbs up. That's right It's for people what don't you get It audio a lot of people listen on audio Andy, sorry I forgot we're new to this. I'm explaining it for the people that. Well also you just like skip past Blake's first shot. Well, we talked about Blake last week a lot. a little idea though where I'm coming in and singing and she realizes I've brought a music video into our bedroom and quickly covers up, which I think is funny Oh yeah, let's see. girl let me a littleallyigious happ brought a music video into our van. She's like what the fuck? Yeah. That is a surreal moment. It is you right. What you think she wants to share with the world that she just had sex, but it turns out the kase Yeah she doesn't think that's should be. it's true this song is you are talking to the camera and telling us that you had sex. so she is like You clearly brought her like a reality crew in ye, Hey, so it just happened, everybody. Here's the girl. N not a chill move. This Mean. But yeah, Mcn Re, I mean, I'm sure it was just we were thinking about who the meanest is, right Or who would play as someone who's known for being angry. How did it actually happen? Becauseuse occasionally, we put the feelers out to be like, you know, if you're around a crew, like can you just get us this shot real? No, I guarantee you it was through SNL Tenton. He was in New York and he just came down and we shot him on a green Yeah. But did we actually shoot We definitely shot him at thirty Rock Yeahag So we just came by us and Allan. That was the first of a few times we collabed.. Yeah. Do you think you were doing neverever Have I ever voiceover together? It Must have been then or Seven Days in Hell. Oh right He plays heavily in Seven Days in Hell In theaters now. He's the best. Yeah, this I'm seeing Clifford in Seven Days in Hell double features tonight my local driving And me, I'm just gonna binge and never have a ever again. For those that don't know, Macrroo' are the voiceover of the main character who is a teenage girl. And then Andy guests for a boy that's on the show, a teenage boy and he becomes his voiceover kind of like conscience, whatever you want to call it, like his narrator for his episodes. Yeah. Yeah. love that show Link Fisher, That's the homeie. My kids loved it. They've watched the whole series more than once. Yeah. And the best part is that when really emotional or huge climax scenes, no spoilers, but like there's a scene where people are going to lose their virginity and it's under a poster for popstar So whenever they're watching it and really into it, then they get taken out of it because it's the poster with all three of our faces. And I get go, Hey, I'm right above them. That's me. I'm right above them. I know this I'm shouting myself cloud, but really I just want to shout out Mindy, who, friend all poster of me in the dorm room of one of the characters on seex lives of college girls. Is that true? Yeah, that's how you know it's Game of Thrones type fantasy that a college girl would have a late night seven poster. But it meant a lot to me because I that's awesome. I really lik that show, great de. Well, congrats, Seth, you just ruined it for us. Yeah. Yess I won't be watching that one. I put everyone up on the walls in those shows. Yeah. And also by the way, at least Popstar had a poster. Like I don't even think like you can get a late night with Seth Myeyers poster. I'm gonna look that up. Yeah, you were like, can I get one of those Yeah, if you got a prop department, you can get one of those All right, yeah, this is a funny shot of Blake continuing just having having sex make a nice man at the meeting never guess where I just came from. I had sex. If I had to describe the feeling it was the we got Alba. Al That's a good phrase for him She's not into my sex moves.ra up blessing us It's a really good shot. You both look great. Thumbs up, thumbs down. So yeah, you're walking through, is that the edge of Central Park No, this is lower down in the city. I feel like we like jumped out and got this. Yeah, Yes, we did not. there was not a lot of planning. We knew that that was a really flexible one. It's the one in the treatment that we were like, Nope, we did that somewhere else. And just, I can't say again for a music video, you rarely see the city this gray and wet And empty. There's not another human being empty, gray, wet J Just like muted colors. Yeah. And then I'm just popping off of the frame. It's also funny because those are my clothes. L the fact that we had like an actual music video crew and then this is. you're just wearing your I'm just wearing my just walking to work and it's so regular. And just to get back to what Seth said last episode, the overview, we want this to look and feel like a real Aon video I don't remember the ones where he's walking around like just a damn dark city. Happy and fun. Yeah cllose enough. Yeah, they're usually more in like Turks and Caos or something, you know Yeah. Yeah. This looks like att least Miami. This looks like a German television show. This does looks like he's in Frankfurt. It does look very easastern block, but like not on film. This is like how they used to do TV behind the Iiron curtain. Yes. It just looks like he's doing a travelog show. He's like in Frankfurt, any day, you can walk around the to city If you go in early December, you can get a reservation. Exactly. It's not the tourist time. You see the streets are empty and it's quite cold. It's also like, here's how to buckle your seatbelt on the airplane. Yeah. Exactly. It was nice with these long woner steadic cam shots because as soon as you got them, we were like, okay, good. That's like because right doesn't this follow into meeting my parents Let's see what this whole shot is I just came from I had sex. If I had to describe the feeling it was the best when I had the sex my penis felt great and I called my parents right after I was done. I mean, I think like that's basically like a warner of like I do that whole little verse. We obviously have all the little cutaay small. Do you think we're just doing the punching trick on that and not even do we think we did a close and a medium? or Yeahah, I mean, this punching was obviously a separate location. she looks pretty German as well, my mom. Yeah. And that building behind you could easily. Yeah. Nobody has that shirt in Germany,s dude's shirt. No, it's not happening in Germany. That's how I know. That's how I know this is fake. This is not a German television. And your ar just 'cause we're fzeamed on the end of this parents shot. You feel like maybe you're a little too handsy with both of them? This was a different era, Andy Okay let's screen grab this. Let's screen grab this. And were if you were in the game in early oddts, was this too handsy? Remember it costs likety thirty thousand dollars to put all those Beetlejuice trees behind you. But we thought it was important for the story we were like, you spent the money on. You the Beetleoose trees It just fit the viibbe so This you think what I just see. Why are you coming out of the women's room? H had sex in the bathroom. We're just fighting dayay in lifeife. He's bathroom. It's implied in the song. Also, why are you' in the same outfit as your almost identically? BeCause we're just two regular guys that can't believe our luck. knew if you doubled up the clothes for the same same look, you would have money for treats.. By the way, again, these are my actual clothes one hundred percent. That was my flanelan jacket. Yeah. can't speak to the t shirt. Are we implying, though that you had sex in the bathroom in this shot? Yeah, and are we in a Starbucks like proper or is this just the cafe I think we might be in a Starbucks. Yeah That's a really handy face. Bl's really selling that too. Yeah. Yeah I look like the gritch. Alfred It's my cam parents. Yeah ye the hair net. This is my flipping copies, you know, just as important time on a boat as the the non forforming a third member, exxcept for I'm still a scrub too. You look buoolish shit do that thing. N ainic girl inemal say. I mean, because we don't do a wide of the cafe, the idea that like you came out of the bathroom and were the baristas or whatever behind the counter. it's like a Starbucks is kind of lost. Yeah. Was that the intention? Yeah, because otherers, why are me and you dressed like that out of nowhere? Yeah, we're at the coffee shop We're there. We're behind the counter here. and I think if you could let this shot go a little longer, you're making your way over revealing us standing there And then Yorm starts his line. Yes. And I think it just in editing, it's one of those things where we were like, oh, it took too long. it never quite matched, didn't have the energy, fuck it just c. then we go back to Blake probably Right, right. That was probably the moment when it revealed us. And you're like, do we want to do this neat shot or do we want to get more of like lively in the video? And the answer is clear. It's confusing on two levels, though, because are you implying that he had sex in the bathroom too? Oh, hey, didn't see it. I think that's the start of it is we are implying So you had sex twice? It's a new verse, yeah Wha. Well, well, okay. so now that's Hella interesting. I think that the whole song is celebrating one sexual encounter. So it's the same sex and now he's just like continuing the thought, but also during Yorm's verse and the chorus, he went to the bathroom and now he's picking it back up. Yeah, the women's room So maybe my thing is you're actually such a dork that you have had sex and now you're like got like a little bit of brain flog and you accidentally walked into the women's bathroom. Brainfog I was hoping nobody caught it. I just had sex with my brainfog. All right, weumlum sex irl house. Are you at her house or your house, you know? I think. Just asking because of this kind of bear and seahorse or giraffe. Giraffe, yeah, giraffe with a bandage on its neck. Yeah. Yeah. And the otter or bear here is getting an idea to save it for your art podcast. Okay. This is in Central Park. Central Park. Yeah that in centrark. Now did you think we went to Central Park being like, oh, let's go to this or did we just go and go, Well find something. That would be a question for you. Did you scout it? if not? I think we loosely scouted this area and the little stage area that's right near here, the little like clamshell. Do you think you were like, shouldhould we go somewhere where maybe some hobos have a fire in an oil drum It for heat, this is classy than that look how classy this looks. During the day it wasn't as bad. Like you're literally like, it's so cold. let's get out of the cold. It's normal like New York at its coldest here though. as opposed to at night. Well, because yeah, right you came down from the heavens. Yeah. But yes, this location obviously has been shot before, but the ceiling is so fucking rand. Yeah. The production value of just that it's a place you can just walk to in New York Ke, what is the name of our studey cam dude? who's so fucking rad? Steady Phil. Just a Steady Phil. fuck Yeah, of course, Ste like Steady Phil, our Stey cam up was fucking incredible. and he would do these insanely long takes. Th would be full stey cam sh, like for, you know, four minute shots that he would yeah, very, very handy. We couldn't have gotten through this without him. Definitely. Keef, what was his last name I don't know. No, his first name is Stedy. his last name is Phil, right? Yeah That was my recollection, but then I feel like he was like, no, that's not right Do you know Rachel Thomas I mean, we really did it with the Irish bar and our Armageddon shop. Nobody's enjoying it not yet. No, no. they're watching it like they're watching a new. They're in awe. They're watching a news story about like Armageddon that's gone. Yeah. There's an asteroid headed towards Earth. was the tone we were giving everyone.'d be like, Okay, now act like you're seeing the craziest like earth shattering news It doesnt really make s Why are you guys having a spa day? Just treating yourself we deserve it. It's a celebration. 'cause we're so happy. Yeahah, It's like now we got a dish. Yeah. Yeah yeah. Great look. G. It's very nice. Keep working that petty. Keep back working the petty. Keep working the petty in his aviator. Yeah. was that I think that's your' foot, right? Or is that myot I can't tell. I think that's. H us in the Tittus, whose foot you think that is? Yeah, Zingus in the Dingus. was that what it was? Right. Let us nose us in the tooses. W wasasn'tZengus in the Dingus, wasas it? was Pingus in the dingus. Dingus in the dingus Zgus works too. Yeah. but ping ping makes sense because ping is, you know,ingus Yeah That's good She could be my wife. Now these people Times Square, there's no way we had this extra get petties. Are some of these people normal tourists? Yes, they are because I remember that we actually just collected people Yeah and then who got like NDAike we started doing it with like a core group and then as more people come over to just look at, we'd be like, no, no, come get the shot.ust get in So you're all looking up at this billboard like it's news. And so these are just people that were in Times Square. And let me just say shout out to Times Square because if you said to a casting person, get me a diverse group of people you could not do better than this random group of people that was in Times Square when you were just all there in the tickets line for Broadway shows. And they all did it. Like none are looking down the lens or anything. Yeah They're all really good. Yeah. I also really like that what they're looking at in Times Square is me and your in a spa with little robes and towels on. the most mundane a mundane comers in. They're like we have to stop everything we're doing to check out this news. this hot gossiping dog. Oh, this is intriguing. I mean, in the minds of these guys, it's this worthy, you know the news is yes. It's also interesting that we didn't put like ticker on the bottom likeike as if it was a news story, like Dorks have sex or whatever. that we should have done missed up because there's no audio in Times Square. Yeah you're not you can't hear what the TV's are doing. Yeah. So they're just they're just glued to your faces talking there. like these guys are saying something. It's a missed op. And speaking of ops, Keve, have you got a message for your ops? mayaybe like, hey, I'm all right. Okay, great. let's jump back in. We got the Adams family, We got Jerseyys, we got Wicked. I mean these I was just gonna to say shout outs to Jersey Bys and wicked. I think both still running. This could be today. These are all very popular things. Good for them And even up top on the ticker it says over monetary tightening. That seems like something that could be on a ticker in times thing's ever the whole story, but good She could be my wife best thir seconds of my life. I'm so numb by a girl's ability to let me do honestly I have sex with a pile of manure ell girls Yeah did we build that spot? Was that in the No, it was a location. Yeah, we just went to a nail salon and then obviously smokeed the hell out of a room. Oh, are we trying to make it look like we're doing like a Schwitz? Yeah, ye like a. We're no longer at the Manny Petty. No, you've moved on. Copy you. I like to go from a shot like us in a steam room too, then you sitting in bed next to a pile of manure. Yeah It's not like a great look It's yeah. I remember this steam rooom because it was really decidedly not one. It was just like a white bench pushed in front of a white wall. and we were just like, we can make it work if we Yeah That' what mean. Like I thought that we'd like built it a little bit or something. The our first of two steam rooms in our videos, right? becausecauseuse wasn't there one in Yolo. Yeah with all the piranas That's more of a sauna. That one we built That was a build. Yeah, you can actually see the door handle byind you. And was the pile of manure a build or was that pree existing? We just in a hall of somewhere. Look, That's just a door. You wouldn't have a door in a steaman. I would. How else are you gonna get out? Burn Come on. Guess what? I'm in the future, you just burn to death. J of dehydration. Put a door in your steam room Not behind you. That's an all white one.

And then they start playing bitterseet Symphony and then it keeps cutting to later and later in the night and the CD is stuck J just keeps playing Bterseet Symphony over and over again and they start going crazy.

We might have also just reframed a big wide shot and made it all sky and then l No knew We definitely were still in the mode of like you want specialty visual joke shots, right? Yeah ye. Yeah. with the cake and everything. Exactly the cake and the skywriting. Not so mention you guys epic high five. Thank you for acknowledging. I mean we had we had to kind of p added it a little bit because this song has less, less visuals out of Just ' know, you're always just looking at yourself. go back to the last shot of Akons singing and I'm just adjusting my ear muffs the whole shot It so cold. Yeah. Just like let's get out of here. This crying shot of you on top of Bake crying. She just wh O one of the most quintessential Andy Andy It is very much on the edge of not okay. We all know And I've never looked more like a Simpsons character been a racist? And I think she might have been a racist. you're just like, hmm, that's a weird lampvering. Clanhood just like propped right up next to the bench. Yeah. Also very good instinct by all parties not to have our friend Jessica Albin in the two shot. That's right. Yeah. This is a solo you. This was done without her there. I just realized that I'm playing our version of the post, but I should be playing the SNL one. so we're hearing laughs this whole time. Wongest laughs. Should we do another episode? Yeah. a racist put a bag on my head Oh, some some sparklers That cost mine I'm the commissioner of the Sex Olympics.. Yeah. Wh are you the top hat? Top hat and Sunny's. Was that the day you went and shot your part in the Tom Petty Biop pic? I like it you can see how cheap the Sex Olympics sign looks. Keve walked out of this frame and into the Don't Come around here, no more video. Yeah actually playing the same role as the commissioner of the Sex Olympics in both. Oh interesting. Yeah These are the same beetlejuice trees, but we moved them around a lot because when you spend that much money, you try to get them in a lot of shops. You got to get as much use as possible. K keepep saying no fucking leaves, no fucking. Nothing says a fun and happy video. Look, then just being basically in a cemetery. Yeah. This EX Olympics banner real despite how Oh Re it looks. Yeah. Because that looks less real than the skywriting. I know. That is definitely But it is real. I mean, it's because of the font is so like fake three D lettering on the ass especially that it looks a little fake, but nope, we really hung that Pull those cables and shit. Someone somewhere probably has that or it's in like a closet somewhere. It's probably a Paul Rudd's house. That I never know. T embarrassed to hang it. You guys both got gold medals. That's so great. Yeah.. They certainly went better than the sppace Olympics What about the Space Haog Olympics? Buya. Oh now we Buya The fact that that's real is so crazy. It's so crazy. So key change. Yeah, on the key chain, but the fact that ACon just flew off the second highest building in New York to go even higher. Yes. So why don't you explain how we did it and what's happening So there's it's a jib arm, right? Giant jib arm. Giant with like huge the kind of thing that you might see a construction worker on to like change a light bulb on a street lamp, like a basket. I don't know how we got it up there. It must have been a service elevator. Yeah. They had to like pull it with pulleys. It was brought up in pieces through a freight elevator and then they built it up there On top of the Met Life building on the windiest freezingest day of the year. And it's probably three in the morning at this point. Yeah. It's even crazier than that though, because we got service elevators, right? There's one level. and then there's a level above that level. So they had to pull everything up with like pulleys and everything and then build it on top of the secondary level that it's so dangerous. That's true. The elevator does not go to the roof And then also that we were too scared to put lights high 'cause they could blow off the roof, but we put you guys high. Oh yeah. This was so scary. So he's on a little chair that's floating up. So the shot is the three of us and then he just starts to lift out of the frame. Now people are really are, even even the girls. Shot change gets everybody out their seat and everyone's feeling good about it now. Yeah this I don't want to be a huge drag as you guys explain how risky that shot was and all the pieces to it. Definitely when I watched it, I thought the camera moved and you guys just like knelt down. Yeah, that's ye. yeah. Yeah. againain. wait, let's see if any of the shots ended up making it clear what was happening All right, so one of me on the TV that I'm doing it, but's it's not necessary. Yeah. But you can't tell. Yeah. But so we're loving Blake and Jessica getting into it and grooven. Yeah. I'm loving Bag on his head version dancing. Yeah That's good stuff. The Irish bar singing. We got all the people in T Square. You see they're all doing theirre waving their hands in the sky. Like at a concert back and forth. A lot of little detail work to give it all the energy Yeah Also, if we didn't need me saying everybody sing, we could have probably seen ACon rising all the way up.. And maybe that was a mistake Iba really whipping her ponytail in my face with Eyen. Back to Mcnroe. McNe's back, yeah, and then what's next? Simes square. We Keep saying, o, we got So who we got our two producers rubbing our back shirtless. Yeah. so that's Rob Smth and then I recognize his face, but I'm lookinginking it's been so long. It was Rob Smyth's home me. Yeah, Rob Smithth's friend fifteen years ago. Rob Smyth, we shot so many videos with Rob Smth R right, so that's you Andy, on yours. But again, we could just be faking it with the camera angle so easy. Yeah in terms of you right there. That's you on. That's me like thirty feet above the top of the roof of the building. Yeah. And like definitely after each take being like, holy shit, I swore I was about to die. you're like, but tell me it was worth it, Keeve Tell me it was worth it. And then so Kve, tell me Tell me how we shoot this a different way where you then could be like it was worth it I mean, now you would just send a drone up to get the background and then we would just be on inside of sound stage. No but do this for real No drically. Yeah. How'd you be able to tell that it's real? I think it has to be a one or like the end of that Bjork video that Spike Jones did. R Either that or we had a secondary crane and that's getting footage of you. so it's spinning. like as he's going up, you're alsom The look of you having to be strapped to this chair is not cool looking. Yeah. So we can't go wider to like show holy fuck he's doing it because you'd be like, whyy is he sitting in a bizarre chair strapped in But you would have got more parallax though. So like if the one camera is going as he's going Yeah ipping past it it would look cooler. If they're not attached to each other. Yeah. But still you would just think we faked it because of the nature of how tight it has to be. Y can I say something I was genuinely impressed by your use of the word paralloax. I was two. Yeah. Thanks Andy. I was like, nice. Well, I was trying to make up for the whole two plus two is four thing. But honestly, if it was a onener where you guys are walking on the roof and then at a certain point, we don't see how you get strapped in because we're in the same medium, and then all of a sudden you start lifting up and are flying, then people would know it's real. You know what I mean Yes, man. But it has to be a wonder. It was also so weird because it was like you were strapped into the chair, which is supposed to imply safety, But then as soon as you're up there, you're like, the whole fucking thing's gonna go over. So it's not gonna to matter. You're just gonna be straight out to this fucking chair and then fly off the roof. It was fun though. It was fun. Yeah. Got your blood going Oh there's there's the wide shot of that that was going. Yep. And I'm guessing this is the last time we did a shot of us all just staring at this camera and nodding. you know, never say never. We've got more videos to watch. And I remember you guys remember you made a big deal out of it the next Monday. You were like, hey, we're not going back to that way. Don't ask us just look down the lens and nod anymore, okay. We're out on that growown as artist and maybe put two percent less makeup on us. We did used to as we were developing our style, say, okay, if it's a joke shot, We always make sure we get it in slow motion, not saying the lyrics. So you have a break from watching somebody say words to you, but you definitely see that employed here with tons of shots like this one and the cake and the high, you know, where if it's a joke, you know, all the ones of the crying over Blake or whatever, they're all slow moo and they're all without lyrics being said. Yeah. Keeeve, is there a certain speed of slow mo that you like for these kinds of shots? What are we shooting at sixty? What I feel like we would always go way slower than we needed to and then realize we needed to speed it back up Like forty eight never seemed slow enough. So we would do ninety six and then we'd get edit and realizeed we had so little time to show what happens that we'd end up speeding it up some. what about the parallax? Yeah, what about that parallax, Keve? The parallax of view Yeah, I love parallax, you know, You feel the background going one way, the characters going the. fun thing. If you shoot at thirty frames and then speed that up, like if you use that as your slowo, it gives us really nice just Theereory a little something. Yeah, that is a nice little tidbit Very nice. All right, this again, everyone's heard us talk about how we didn't have the like crews that they have today with VFX people and stuff, which we didn't There was no way for us to get this shot done. It's way more complicated than you would think Obviously there's nothing. they just did this pose and we said, No, we'll put fireworks and everyone wass like, how because you would need the fireworks going at the exact right angles for the shot in the exact right ways and it wasn't just putting like no one could figure it out. And the Katy Perry firework video had come out earlier that year or maybe the year before, it was just a huge deal. And if you recall, fireworks come out of the chests of everybody in that video over and over That's a you know, million dollar whatever cost Dave Myers, who is the biggest music video director ever. directed huge video So I was like, how did they do it? And I cold called Dave Myers's production company, he had or has a video production company called Radical Media, and I knew that. And I called the front desk and just explained who we were and that we were at SNL and we were on a super tight thing and I need to get to Dave Myeers to ask him how he did the shot AAP And she said hold and basically got me his email. like got permission to give me his email. And I co emailed Dave Myers and he was like wrote back pretty quickly explaining that it was a company out of Texas that did the VFX work and that they had gone to Budapest and shot for two nights different fireworks going off for the plates over black. Like that's how much money they had. where a team could just go out and shoot fireworks So they had all this stuff. And so then he got me in touch with them. This is all within like forty eight hours of the video coming out talalking to these guys in Texas, explaining what we're doing and they're super down to help. Just God bless them. likeike that sounds so fun and cool. It's SNL send us the shot so we I found the shot way before we had even edited the video. and I sent them the shot and they went back into their hard drives and found the plates from Budapest and made us this shot and gave it to us on like Saturday afternoon. So fucking nice. so nice. so generous with their time That'sazing. Yeah. I remember we sent them a bottle I asked them if we could pay and I don't think we paid them anything. They were like, No, we're good. It was just for fun. that we love like. It was cool. And I think we' sent them like a bottle of champagne With a big than. I love stories like this. When Akiva gets super motivated to just track some shit down, figures out an idea, is like that we got to get exactly that, makes it happen. L And again, like he's talking about in forty eight hours,' not like it's like to do all that within the time that we. Th are people that I would assume don't work on Saturdays generally. No. no, yeah, that's amazing Can you go back to one hundred fifty three? Somebody wrote something that I was curious about. So it's when Andy puts his headphones up. Their question was it looks like it's in reverse. Like the way your hood comes up, they asked, is this shot played backwards? 'cause your hood flips up so fast, it looks like it's coming down. justust watch it again Oh, the hood just like flips up in a weird way. Yeah, it is your hood, right? To get warmth. Hey, Keeve, I figured out the name of the company that gave you the fireworks, Radium, A real V FX company from Dallas, Texas. Yeah. So shout out to those guys. This is very nice day. Yeah, that does ring the bell as they say It's just a hood flipping. The way it flips up, I can see why they asked if it was played backwards, which it clearly wasn't, But that thing goes flying up. Yeah. We got to get into into the footage. Yeah. But we definitely did not do anything backwards. That'd be impossible for us at that point Not impossible, but you know what I mean? Like withith these two guys moving forward. 'ause I was gonna say, what if we had split screened Dandy and put them in but there's no way with all the parallax D that we could handle that. Jsious they parallax a lot. There is no way though Oh now that ye Now that you' got credit for it, he's just keep going back to the parallax well. You guys have been saying. The way that the background is genuinely parallaxing, there's no way like we would We've been able to cut Andy out. And if we did cut Andy out, we wouldn't have put in a version of Andy where he's fucking with his earmouth Anyways, good question, but no, good question. You guys the caterer just got here for round two of the party. So Oh, oh, it's like and then tomorrow come on by for some brunch. I got I gotta blast some tunes too because these jokers look like they're not having a good time. I just want to point something out. Seth just texted me that he got Queen Be during the pod. Oh because it was r up and I was close. I was close and I felt like I could get it. Guys, is there any truth to the rumor that he requested you guys change it to the Lornley Island? That's actually in the documentary, Luren now in Peacock. Oh, he says he wants it to be the Lornley Island. Yeah, it's just the footage they had as the video. actually caught the moment he asked Oh, and then there was like that six minute scene where he's like talking to the rest of the staff. likeike shouldould I even mention it? Is it dumb? Because people they already put out one album we'll be confusing. All right hey Jack Flack, sick us in C S One hint ' you didnt have in hand. You didn't have your coffee. Can I guess the word? Yeah, guess the word. Log roll. Yes All right, L That was my last one. So That was your last one, but you used hints, obviously. So many. Log roll. I was clean, quib be clean, clean B and then couldn't get log roll. hadad to get the know that it was an L. Yeah. Andy, do you ever when you do no hints, do you ever say to yourself, no stems, no seeds, no hints I like Laure no, but I will now. Okay. That's a good way to say. And your Yes. Did you get nice? U I will. I'm going to go poolside and then I'll see if I can get to solid today, but I'll let you know. I mean, you worked real hard. you had a wedding and fireworks and all That's the thing. I still do not know where my phone is guys. That's. Yeah. It's hard to do the B when you don't have a phone. So I guess we can't do like a future B'at until we know for sure you get n Right. You're reducing me to nice. I usually get solid, bro. Yeah but when you got nice, he went, That's a nice. Oh solid. He doesn't say it's a solid. I could ask Sasha to send this a solid. Isn't it nice one word I will tell you the biggest burn I got yesterday was that I didn't get non word as one of my words. becausecause the amount you're like, Well, that's not a word by Um Oh yeah, there was a crossword day. I mean, not really, but there were three that could have been shout out to us. Well, one was Bay Area airport code, but then it was SFO. so that that's not that's like almost a slap in your face, right? I think any reference to the Bay Area is a winter soldier. Okay, so we have there's three winter soldiers in this. It was Bay Area airport code M. Blank recall. I saw that. I was like, oh, they w are soldiering again. And then my bay area, which is rival of a Rven, and it was Steeler. I did see Steeler. So that's kind of triple triple win. Yeah, they're up in our heads. U Well, this was just delightful.
